Headache Management in Individuals with Brain Tumor
Authors: Cuneo Ami , Murinova Natalia 
Published: January 2024

AbstractHeadache occurs commonly in individuals diagnosed with cerebral neoplasm. Though the features of a brain tumor-associated headache may vary, a progressive nature of headache and a change in headache phenotype from a prior primary headache disorder often are identified. Pathophysiologic mechanisms proposed for headache associated with brain tumor include headache related to traction on pain-sensitive structures, activation of central and peripheral pain processes, and complications from surgical, chemotherapeutic and/or radiotherapy treatment(s). Optimization of headache management is important for an individual's quality of life. Treatments are based upon patient-specific goals of care and may include tumor-targeted medical and surgical interventions, as well as a multimodal headache treatment approach incorporating acute and preventive medications, nutraceuticals, neuromodulation devices, behavioral interventions, anesthetic nerve blocks, and lifestyles changes.

Authors: Mittal Payal , Ganesan Prem Kumar , Vats Abhinav , Parakh Ankit 
Published: January 2024

AbstractTuberculosis is still an endemic in many parts of the world. Vascular complications have been described in patients with tuberculosis and in aggressive chest infections such as actinomycoses. Etiology of internal mammary artery pseudoaneurysms includes iatrogenic causes or a complication of infection (mycotic aneurysm). Early diagnosis and treatment of these aneurysms are key to prevent complications such as hemorrhage, hemothorax, and hemorrhagic shock. In this case report, we describe the presentation and management of a 11-year-old patient with tuberculosis, who developed an internal mammary artery pseudoaneurysm during the course of treatment. We describe the case of a 11-year-old girl with known tuberculosis who developed a left internal mammary artery pseudoaneurysm, and treated with percutaneous ultrasound-guided glue embolization.
An Outcome Analysis of Fibrin Sealant versus Staples for Fixation of Split-Thickness Skin Grafts
Authors: Shuchi Akshara , Gupta Deepti , Sarabahi Sujata 
Published: January 2024

Abstract
Background Skin grafting plays a vital role in post-burn and post-traumatic wound management. Split-thickness skin grafts (STSG) are traditionally fixed using staples or sutures, which have tedious application and their removal necessitates painkillers, medical equipment, and human intervention. As an alternative, fibrin sealant is a biological tissue adhesive, composed of thrombin, calcium, and fibrinogen. Fibrin sealant promotes hemostasis and acts as a biological adherent.
Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcomes (graft take, wound healing and complications) of fibrin sealant and staples for STSG fixation.
Methods It is a randomized controlled trial on 40 patients with wounds of minimum 400 cm2. Wound area was divided into equal halves and randomly allocated to the study group or control group. In the study group, 4 mL per 200 cm2 of fibrin sealant was sprayed followed by STSG application. In the control group, STSG was fixed with only skin staples. Evaluation was done on postoperative days 3, 5, 15, and 30 for graft take, hematoma/seroma, infection, and complete wound healing.
Results The mean graft take was significantly higher (p-value < 0.05) in the study group than in the control group (91 vs. 89%). No seroma or hematoma formation was seen in either group. Complete wound healing was seen in more patients in the study group, but the difference was statistically insignificant.
Conclusion Fibrin sealant is an excellent alternative to staples for skin grafting, with the advantage of better graft take and being free of pain that is incurred during staple removal.
Interprovincial food trade aggravates China’s land scarcity

Published: January 2024

AbstractLand is an increasingly scarce resource that plays a critical role in achieving many Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Land scarcity, namely the imbalance state between cropland availability and demand, can be mitigated by the trade of agricultural products, but how effective it is remains unclear. Here, by integrating grid-level data on cropland into multi-regional input–output analysis, this paper accounts for the scarce land footprint and virtual scarce land flows within China at a 1 km × 1 km resolution. Results show that over 70% of China’s land footprint and scarce land footprint can be attributed to less than 20% of the land, and nearly 38% of the land footprint and scarce land footprint hotspot clusters are found to cross provinces. Generally, while virtual land trade mitigates the land scarcity of land-importing provinces by 50.8%, it disproportionately aggravates the land scarcity of land-exporting provinces by 119.8%. These findings challenge the dominant thinking about food trading and call for new policies to improve land resources management and promote collaborative governance across administrative boundaries. Our study also highlights the critical importance of considering land scarcity, shedding lights on how it may be integrated into environmental footprints to better assist the SDG framework.
Promoting carbon neutrality and green growth through cultural industry financing
Authors: Zhang Hanzhi , Zhang Jingfeng , Pai Chih-Hung 
Published: January 2024

AbstractThis study delves into the influence of green financing within the cultural industry on the green growth trajectories of China’s 32 provinces spanning the years 2010 to 2021. Employing the Common Correlated Effects Mean Group (CCEMG) estimator, the research comprehensively assesses the impact of various independent variables on green growth. The findings indicate that a 1% rise in cultural sustainability investment correlates with a 0.63% upswing in green growth, whereas a 1% increase in carbon dioxide emissions corresponds to a 0.14% decline in green growth. Additionally, the study posits that shifts in the scale of the financial market do not exert a significant influence on green growth. Moreover, the negative coefficient of −0.25% for the variable “ICT diffusion index” suggests that heightened use of ICT devices is associated with a reduction in green growth. Given these insights, proposed strategies involve advancing the digitalization of the cultural industry through fintech and big data, establishing supportive regulatory frameworks, and fostering collaborations between financial institutions and cultural organizations.
Global evidence on the economic effects of disease suppression during COVID-19
Authors: Rothwell Jonathan T. , Cojocaru Alexandru , Srinivasan Rajesh , Kim Yeon Soo 
Published: January 2024

AbstractGovernments around the world attempted to suppress the spread of COVID-19 using restrictions on social and economic activity. This study presents the first global analysis of job and income losses associated with those restrictions, using Gallup World Poll data from 321,000 randomly selected adults in 117 countries from July 2020 to March 2021. Nearly half of the world’s adult population lost income because of COVID-19, according to our estimates, and this outcome and related measures of economic harm—such as income loss—are strongly associated with lower subjective well-being, financial hardship, and self-reported loss of subjective well-being. Our primary analysis uses a multilevel model with country and month-year levels, so we can simultaneously test for significant associations between both individual demographic predictors of harm and time-varying country-level predictors. We find that an increase of one-standard deviation in policy stringency, averaged up to the time of the survey date, predicts a 0.37 std increase in an index of economic harm (95% CI 0.24–0.51) and a 14.2 percentage point (95% CI 8.3–20.1 ppt) increase in the share of workers experiencing job loss. Similar effect sizes are found comparing stringency levels between top and bottom-quintile countries. Workers with lower-socioeconomic status—measured by within-country income rank or education—were much more likely to report harm linked to the pandemic than those with tertiary education or relatively high incomes. The gradient between harm and stringency is much steeper for workers at the bottom quintiles of the household income distribution than it is for those at the top, which we show with interaction models. Socioeconomic status is unrelated to harm where stringency is low, but highly and negatively associated with harm where it is high. Our detailed policy analysis reveals that school closings, stay-at-home orders, and other economic restrictions were strongly associated with economic harm, but other non-pharmaceutical interventions—such as contact tracing, mass testing, and protections for the elderly were not.
Language (re)vitalization
Authors: Wickström Bengt-Arne , Nagy Noémi , Rieger-Roschitz Anneliese , Vizi Balázs 
Published: January 2024

Abstract
Many small languages are in danger of extinction. How to stop and reverse this process is an important topic in
the sociolinguistic literature. In addition to the revitalization of languages, there are also some examples of vitalizing
(bringing to use) “new” languages, for example the introduction of Ivrit (modern Hebrew) in Palestine/Israel.
Generally speaking, for a language to be used, no matter which language, the users must find it attractive and useful. At least
two factors are important here: the value attributed to the language by its users as a means of communication and as a carrier of
culture and identity. It is assumed that these factors can be influenced by language-policy measures.
The impact of various measures on the vitality of the language is an empirical matter. However, one can draw some
general conclusions regarding which measures are sensible in order to vitalize or revitalize which languages when the financial
resources of the policy-maker are limited. In this introductory text to the theme issue, we apply the methodology of
cost-effectiveness analysis to discuss the connection between the types of the policy measures employed and characteristics of the
language communities addressed, such as size, social status, and residential patterns. The cost-effectiveness ratio of street
signs in a minority language might, for instance, be higher for a community spread over a whole country than for a community of
the same size concentrated in one geographically limited jurisdiction. On the other hand, a decision to publish the texts of laws
and decrees of a country in a minority language will have approximately the same effect for both types of minorities. The articles
in this special issue of LPLP address and evaluate different types of policy measures for different linguistic minorities and
illustrate important aspects of the main questions in this paper.
Jurisdictional decentralisation in favour of minority languages
Authors: Korpics Fanni 
Published: January 2024

Abstract
This article sets out to explore what effects administrative and jurisdictional decentralisation might have on
minority languages and the communities that use them, with special regard to those fragile language groups that are in a status
which can be best described as a minority within a minority. Decentralisation often takes the form of regionalisation, which
entails the division of a state’s territory into regions, not only in geographical and economic sense, but also by attributing
certain administrative and jurisdictional powers to these newly formed units. Most of the time regional boundaries are drawn in
such a way that the new intra-state borders respect the ethnic, linguistic, and cultural specificities of the population living
there. If this is the case, it is possible for certain decision-making mechanisms and governance models to place jurisdiction over
minority language issues among the competences granted to sub-national entities. The article sets out to explore the effects of
jurisdictional decentralisation on three regional languages: the Aranese in Spain, the Ladin in Italy, and the Catalan in France.
These communities are examined in detail in this paper, which proposes to shed light on some good practices available in Europe,
but at the same time also draws attention to areas where there is still room for improvement along the lines discussed above.
Standardization and vitality
Authors: Daniel Rhianwen 
Published: January 2024

Abstract
This paper examines the relation between linguistic purism, standardization, and vitality, arguing that linguistic
purism warrants renewed emphasis as a necessary heuristic for preventing language endangerment and extinction. Linguistic purism
has developed an unfavourable reputation in contemporary linguistics and is frequently portrayed as irrational and reactionary.
This is partly due to its historical association with nationalism, and partly due to the descriptive rather than prescriptive
nature of contemporary linguistics. This paper argues that linguistic purism is actually rooted in progressive rather than
reactionary political thought and activity, and is a constitutive feature of Western Modernity. Moreover, its historical
association with nationalism is more accurately understood as anti-colonial resistance, a grassroots version of which can be
observed across numerous non-Han ethnic groups in the People’s Republic of China today. Using the explanatory framework of linguistic relativity, the
paper further argues that purism is a rational rather than reactionary response to excessive
translingual borrowing.
Investigation of structural, linear, and nonlinear optical properties of nanosized zinc oxide and cadmium oxide particles ingrained in graphitic carbon nitrides
Authors: Sangwan Reetu , Barala Monika , Yadav Kavita , Poonam  , Mohan Devendra 
Published: January 2024

Abstract
The study aims to evaluate the third-order optical nonlinearity caused by laser irradiation in transition metal oxide incorporated into graphitic carbon nitrides. The work describes the synthesis of nano-sized hybrid g-C3N4/ZnO (14%) and g-C3N4/CdO (14%). Nano-sized transition metal oxides: ZnO and CdO, have been prepared by thermally decomposing the organic precursors; Zinc Acetate Dihydrate, Cadmium Acetate Dihydrate, and Urea at 873 K. Graphitic carbon nitrides are synthesized from urea, which also functions as a reducing agent. The synthesized sample’s structural and morphological characterization are investigated using x-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transforms infrared (FTIR), UV–vis. spectra, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The grain size of the ZnO and CdO nanoparticles is observed to be ∼21 nm and ∼28 nm, respectively. The absorption in the samples is found to be 250–450 nm and transmit the light in the visible spectrum as observed in UV–vis. spectra. The bandgap values calculated from Tauc’s plot for the hybrid structure of g-C3N4/ZnO and g-C3N4/CdO are found to be 2.97 eV and 2.30 eV.The z-scan method is adopted to evaluate the nonlinear susceptibility (χ3), intensity-dependent absorption coefficient (β), and nonlinear index of refraction (n2) using a pulsed Nd:YAG laser (∼532 nm). The results of the composite of g-C3N4/ZnO and g-C3N4/CdO show good third-order susceptibility and hence are useful for use as an optical limiter.
A novel CrCx/C-Cr multilayer PVD coating for cotton picking spindle: committed to replacing traditional electroplated chromium coating
Authors: Wang Shuo , Miao Yunteng , Si Chaorun 
Published: January 2024

Abstract
A novel CrCx/C-Cr multilayer coating for cotton picking spindles was prepared on a 20CrMnTi substrate using PVD technology. Compared to the traditional electroplated chromium coating, the CrCx/C-Cr coating has a dense structure, and no micro-cracks were observed on the surface. The results of nanoindentation show that the nano-hardness of the CrCx/C-Cr coating is about 8.46 GPa, which is 78.5% higher than that of the substrate. Additionally, the CrCx/C-Cr coating has a lower friction coefficient and wear rate compared to the electroplated chromium coating, indicating better wear resistance properties. The multilayer CrCx/C-Cr coating is expected to replace the high-pollution chromium coating for cotton picking spindles.
Statistical analysis of coupled oscillations with a single fixed endpoint and its application to carbon nanomaterials
Authors: Inui Norio 
Published: January 2024

Abstract
Squared deviations from the equilibrium positions of one-dimensional coupled harmonic oscillators with fixed and free endpoints are calculated, and the time averages are expressed as a function of the initial displacements and velocities. Furthermore, we consider the averages of squared deviations over an ensemble of initial displacements and velocities, which distribute based on a product of the same distribution functions with variances of the initial coordinates

and velocities

. This simple statistical property of harmonic oscillation is similarly observed in the oscillations of a graphene sheet and carbon nanotube in molecular dynamics simulations, in which the interacting forces are nonlinear.
Tropical cyclone intensity forecasting using model knowledge guided deep learning model
Authors: Wang Chong , Li Xiaofeng , Zheng Gang 
Published: January 2024

Abstract
This paper developed a deep learning (DL) model for forecasting tropical cyclone (TC) intensity in the Northwest Pacific. A dataset containing 20 533 synchronized and collocated samples was assembled, which included ERA5 reanalysis data as well as satellite infrared (IR) imagery, covering the period from 1979 to 2021. The u-, v- and w-components of wind, sea surface temperature, IR satellite imagery, and historical TC information were selected as the model inputs. Then, a TC-intensity-forecast-fusion (TCIF-fusion) model was developed, in which two special branches were designed to learn multi-factor information to forecast 24 h TC intensity. Finally, heatmaps capturing the model’s insights are generated and applied to the original input data, creating an enhanced input set that results in more accurate forecasting. Employing this refined input, the heatmaps (model knowledge) were used to guide TCIF-fusion model modeling, and the model-knowledge-guided TCIF-fusion model achieved a 24 h forecast error of 3.56 m s−1 for Northwest Pacific TCs spanning 2020–2021. The results show that the performance of our method is significantly better than the official subjective prediction and advanced DL methods in forecasting TC intensity by 4% to 22%. Additionally, compared to operational approaches, model-guided knowledge methods can better forecast the intensity of landfalling TCs.

Published: January 2024

Abstract
The elephant random walk (ERW) is a discrete-time random walk introduced by Schütz and Trimper (2004) in order to investigate how long-range memory affects the behavior of the random walk. Its particularity is that the next step of the walker depends on its whole past through a parameter

. In this work, we investigate the validity of the central limit theorem of the ERW when the walker has only a gradually increasing memory. Our contribution provides a positive answer to a conjecture raised in a recent work by Gut and Stadtmüller (2022 Stat. Probab. Lett.

Published: January 2024

Abstract
Ensuring energy performance management is important in many ways, such improvement of energy efficiency and decrease of energy costs are reduced. There are various indicators of the effectiveness of energy performance management of buildings. Due to this situation, businesses need to make the necessary improvements for the development of these factors. Nonetheless, these actions cause an increase in the costs of the companies. Hence, among these actions, the more important ones need to be identified. Owing to this issue, businesses can use their limited budgets for more priority indicators. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the main indicators of energy performance management systems. In this way, a new model is proposed to make a priority analysis for the hospitals. Firstly, five indicators of energy performance management systems are selected by considering ISO 50006 standards. Furthermore, these indicators are weighted by using Spherical fuzzy CRITIC. Secondly, G7 countries are examined with fuzzy RATGOS technique. Identification of the most significant indicators of the energy performance systems is an important novelty of this study. The most significant methodological novelty of this study is proposing a new technique to the literature named RATGOS. It is understood that energy efficiency is the most crucial indicator of energy performance management. Furthermore, it is also identified that France is the most successful G7 economy with respect to the energy performance management. Japan and United States have also high performance in this respect. It is recommended that necessary actions should be taken to increase energy efficiency. By conducting an energy audit, energy consumption data is analyzed so that energy losses and inefficiencies can be detected. This assessment provides opportunities for energy efficiency and helps identify improvement strategies.
Enhanced doping and structure relaxation of unsubstituted polythiophene through oxidative chemical vapor deposition and mild plasma treatment

Abstract
We report on the enhancement of electrical properties of unsubstituted polythiophene (PT) through oxidative chemical vapor deposition (oCVD) and mild plasma treatment. The work function of p-type oCVD PT increases after the treatment, indicating the Fermi level shift toward the valence band edge and an increase in carrier density. In addition, regardless of initial values, nearly the same work function is obtained for all the plasma-treated oCVD PT films as high as ∼5.25 eV, suggesting the pseudo-equilibrium state is reached in the oCVD PT from the plasma treatment. This increase in carrier density after plasma treatment is attributed to the activation of initially not-activated dopant species (i.e. neutrally charged Br), which is analogous to the release of trapped charge carriers to the valence band of the oCVD PT. The enhancement of electrical properties of oCVD PT is directly related to the improvement of the thin film transistor performance such as drain current on/off ratio, ∼103 and field effect mobility, 2.25 × 10−2 cm2 Vs−1, compared to untreated counterparts of 102 and 0.09 × 10−2 cm Vs−1, respectively.
