On the Accuracy of Surface-Wave Dispersion Measurements from Horizontal-Component Ambient Noise Cross Correlations

Published: August 2023

Abstract
At present, both Rayleigh and Love waves can be extracted from cross-correlations of ambient noise in ambient noise tomography (ANT). It has been demonstrated that accurate Rayleigh-wave dispersion curves can be extracted from vertical-component noise when noise sources are evenly distributed in space. However, because the rotation of horizontal components alters the distributions of effective sources in horizontal–horizontal cross correlations between a pair of stations, it is still not completely sure if dispersion curves of Rayleigh and Love waves extracted from horizontal-component noise data are accurate for ANT. In this study, through numerical simulations, we demonstrate that surface-wave phase velocities extracted from the horizontal–horizontal cross-correlation functions (CCFs) systematically deviate from structural phase velocity even when noise sources are evenly distributed in space. The deviations of phase velocities quickly increase with decreasing station separations of CCFs when station separations are shorter than three wavelengths. Further analysis on field data recorded at seismic stations in the contiguous United States confirms the existence of the phase-velocity deviations of Rayleigh and Love waves when they are measured from horizontal–horizontal CCFs. Because the deviations become smaller with increasing station separations and are less than 0.25% at station separations longer than three wavelengths, we suggest that it is best to only select those CCFs with station separations longer than three wavelengths in ANT when measuring phase velocities of surface waves from horizontal-component CCFs, such as Love waves from radial–radial CCFs.

Propósito: Este trabalho busca descrever como a pandemia de Covid-19 esteve presente nas narrativas fúnebres publicadas pela Revista Adventista (periódico centenário de circulação nacional) durante a crise sanitária, influenciando na constituição dessas memórias. Método: O estudo se desenvolveu a partir da análise documental das notas de falecimento publicadas na seção Memória, espaço tradicionalmente dedicado aos obituários. Foram selecionadas apenas as notas de falecimento que mencionavam a Covid-19 como causa mortis. Sendo assim, das 376 divulgadas no período de junho de 2020 a setembro de 2021, 124 se enquadraram nesse critério. Resultados: Foi possível perceber que a crise sanitária contribuiu para a ampliação da tradição de publicar obituários. Além de aumentar o número de páginas reservado às notas de falecimento, a revista criou um memorial on-line dedicado exclusivamente à memória das vítimas da pandemia. Isso permitiu que as famílias enlutadas pudessem prestar sua homenagem e gravar as memórias de seus entes queridos num contexto de negação do direito ao luto, restrições aos rituais fúnebres e sepultamentos rápidos. Conclusão: O cenário pandêmico parece ter influenciado na constituição das memórias em si, considerando o fato de algumas dessas narrativas obituárias terem destacado atitudes positivas dessas pessoas apesar do cenário caótico. Além disso, a publicação das notas de falecimento das vítimas da pandemia parece ter assumido também o sentido de registro do que foi a própria crise sanitária e seu impacto no adventismo.

Objective: to evaluate the possibilities of dynamic scintigraphy for the diagnosis of esophageal dysmotility (ED) and gastroesophageal reflux (GER) in patients with systemic sclerosis (SS).Material and methods. The study group included 77 patients with established SS of different disease duration (from several months to 30 years) who underwent Technephyt 99mTc dynamic esophageal scintigraphy using two-stage protocol. During the first stage, the esophageal transport function was evaluated; during the second stage, the presence and severity of GER were assessed. Scans were analyzed using visual assessment, quantitative estimation of time/activity curves, and a proposed three-point scale for evaluating ED and GER severity. The control group consisted of 19 practically healthy individuals who underwent a routine examination to exclude digestive system and gastrointestinal tract diseases, the algorithm of which included dynamic scintigraphy.Results. ED was found in 74 of 77 patients (96%). According to three-point scale, severe ED (3 points) was registrated in 41 (55%) patients, moderate ED (2 points) in 15 (21%), and mild ED in 18 (24%). GER was diagnosed in 35 of 77 cases (45%): mild GER in 13 (37%), moderate GER (2 points) in 22 (63%), and none of the patients was found to have severe GER (3 points). A significant relationship between the presence of GER and the severity of ED was not obtained, but a direct correlation was established between ED and GER severity.Conclusion. Most SS patients demonstrated ED of varying severity associated with mild and moderate GER in nearly 45% of the cases. The study results confirm the practical significance of dynamic scintigraphy for assessing the esophageal transport function and GER in SS patients.

Positron emission tomography combined with computed tomography (PET/CT) with 18F-fluoro-deoxyglucose (18F-FDG) plays an important role in the management of cancer patients and is mainly used for primary staging, evaluation of treatment response and detection of disease recurrence. Due to non-specific nature of 18F-FDG uptake, a radiologist must be familiar with both physiological and atypical distribution of radiopharmaceuticals. Inappropriate patient preparation for the study and/or taking certain drugs can lead to abnormal 18F-FDG distribution. Our clinical case demonstrates an atypical uptake of 18F-FDG in white adipose tissue in a child treated with glucocorticoids for a long time.

The relevance of implementing artificial intelligence (AI) technologies in the diagnosis of breast cancer (BC) is associated with a continuing high increase in BC incidence among women and its leading position in the structure of cancer incidence. Theoretically, using AI technologies is possible both at the stage of screening and in clarifying BC diagnosis. The article provides a brief overview of AI systems used in clinical practice and discusses their prospects in BC diagnosis. Advances in machine learning can be effective to improve the accuracy of mammography screening by reducing missed cancer cases and false positives.
Variational Amplitude Amplification for Solving QUBO Problems
Authors: Koch Daniel , Cutugno Massimiliano , Patel Saahil , Wessing Laura , Alsing Paul M 
Published: August 2023

We investigate the use of amplitude amplification on the gate-based model of quantum computing
as a means for solving combinatorial optimization problems. This study focuses primarily on
QUBO (quadratic unconstrained binary optimization) problems, which are well-suited for qubit superposition states. Specifically, we demonstrate circuit designs which encode QUBOs as ‘cost oracle’
operations UC, which when combined with the standard Grover diffusion operator Us lead to high
probabilities of measurement for states corresponding to the optimal and near optimal solutions. In
order to achieve these probabilities, a single scalar parameter ps is required, which we show can be
found through a variational quantum-classical hybrid approach.
Gravelly Beach Deposits as a Proxy for Relative Sea-Level Changes in Microtidal Wave-Dominated Shoreline Systems: Examples from the Hinterland of the Taranto Gulf (Middle Pleistocene, Basilicata, Southern Italy)
Authors: Giorgio Vincenzo De , Sabato Luisa , Tropeano Marcello 
Published: August 2023

The hinterland of the Taranto Gulf in Basilicata (southern Italy) provides a great opportunity for the study of coarse-grained coastal systems belonging to a staircase of Quaternary terraced ma-rine-deposits. Among gravelly successions, beach deposits abound in the stratigraphic record, offering exceptional outcrops useful to allow detailed information on their facies features. In this paper, we describe sedimentary facies, textural variations and depositional architecture of these deposits in order to:
-	demonstrate that the area is an excellent training ground for the study of gravelly beaches in microtidal settings;
-	discuss about the use of beach deposits as proxy of even small relative sea level variation.

Published: August 2023

Background:
Return to work (RTW) and sports (RTS) are critical gauges to improvement among patients after total hip arthroplasty (THA). This study aimed to determine rates, timelines, and prognostic factors associated with RTW and RTS outcomes after primary THA.

Methods:
A systematic review was conducted on MEDLINE, EMBASE, and CENTRAL databases with 57 studies meeting inclusion/exclusion criteria. The risk of bias was assessed using the Risk of Bias in Non-randomized Studies of Interventions and risk of bias in randomized trials (RoB2) tools. Meta-analysis and pooled analysis were conducted, with forest plots to summarize odds ratios and 95% confidence interval (CI).

Results:
The pooled RTW rate across all studies was 70% (95% CI, 68%-80%), with rates varying significantly from 11% to 100%. The mean time to RTW was 11.2 weeks (range 1-27). A time point analysis showed increasing RTW rates with a maximum rate at 2 years of 90%. Increased age (p < 0.001) and preoperative heavy labor (p = 0.005) were associated with lower RTW rates. The RTS rate ranged from 42% to 100%, with a pooled rate of 85% (95% CI, 74%-92%). The mean time to RTS was 16.1 weeks (range 8-26). The RTS ranged from 20% to 80% with a pooled proportion of 56% (95% CI, 42%-70%, I2 = 90%) for high-intensity sports and from 75% to 100% for low-intensity sports with a pooled proportion of 97% (95% CI, 83-99, I2 = 93%).

Conclusion:
Most patients RTW and RTS after THA in an increasing manner as time passes with rates more than 85% after 1 year. These rates may be greatly affected by various factors, most notably age, the intensity of the sport, and the type of work performed. In general, young patients, low-demand work or sports can be resumed as soon as 4 to 6 weeks after surgery, but with increased restrictions as the intensity increases. This information should be used by practitioners to manage postoperative expectations and provide appropriate recommendations to patients.

Published: August 2023

» Wide-awake local anesthesia no tourniquet (WALANT) technique featuring tumescent infiltration of lidocaine with epinephrine at the operative site has broad application in hand surgery including both soft-tissue and bone procedures.» The advantages of wide-awake anesthesia include high patient satisfaction, preserved intraoperative finger and wrist motion, cost-effectiveness, improved operating room efficiency, fewer opioids during recovery, and improved access to hand surgery, which may be performed in an office-based setting without the need for anesthesia personnel.» In properly selected patients, use of lidocaine with epinephrine in the hand and fingers is safe. Rare postprocedure digital ischemia may be effectively treated with phentolamine rescue.» Barriers to adopting wide-awake anesthesia may be overcome by educating resistant stakeholders, including hospital administrators, nurse leaders, and anesthesia colleagues, about the advantages of the WALANT method.» The risk of postoperative complications after hand procedures may be mitigated by using the wide-awake technique instead of regional anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia.
Anterior Knee Pain After Total Knee Arthroplasty

Published: August 2023

» Despite the widespread success of total knee arthroplasty (TKA), postoperative anterior knee pain (AKP) remains a common occurrence and source of dissatisfaction with several readily discernible and diagnosable causes of AKP after TKA, including component malpositioning, infection, wear and osteolysis, instability, and loosening, among others.» In the setting of the well-appearing but painful TKA, potential intraoperative contributors to AKP have been extensively investigated, but remain controversial and include patellar resurfacing, patellar denervation, and patellofemoral joint overstuffing or understuffing.» Intraoperative management of peripatellar soft tissues has comparatively attained substantially less attention recently, and persistent controversy exists in the literature to make informed decisions on soft-tissue management and identify potential contributors to AKP.» Further investigations and research is needed, including exploration of multifactorial or alternative etiologies, specifically ones related to less obvious soft-tissue–related factors, needed to better understand and ultimately avoid AKP after TKA.
