Abstract
Summer precipitation over the Tibetan Plateau (TP) has experienced obvious changes in recent decades, with significantly increased trends observed over the northern and western regions during 1961–2020. Results indicate that there are two pathways linking them to the reduced Arctic sea ice from late spring (April and May) to early summer (June and July). First, decreased sea ice in late spring favors wet and dry soil over the eastern Caspian Sea and northeastern TP by stimulating anomalous wavelike patterns and modulating snow melting. Furthermore, the soil moisture anomalies during late spring could maintain to July because of memory effects, strengthen the midlatitude Silk Road pattern, and contribute to the formation of a dipole mode around TP, characterized by a west cyclone and an east anticyclone. Second, through exciting an anomalous Rossby wave directly spreading from the Arctic to TP, a similar dipole pattern on 500-hPa geopotential height could be associated with the decline of sea ice in early summer. Consequently, enhanced southwesterly winds shown with the west cyclone cause more water vapor input to the western TP, while easterly anomalies along with the east anticyclone inhibit climatological westerly winds and prevent water vapor from outputting. This dipole pattern finally brings more moisture accumulated in the western and northern TP and increases the precipitation. This study links heterogeneous changes in summer precipitation over TP to Arctic sea ice changes and provides insights for further investigation into whether the TP could serve as a bridge connecting the Arctic and tropical climates.
Generational Differences in Local Identities, Participation in Social Movements, and Migration Intention Among Hong Kong People

We adopt and extend Hirschman’s (1970) Exit, Voice, and Loyalty framework to investigate the associations between local identities, participation in social movements, and migration intention in Hong Kong. Data are from random sampled surveys collected from February to April 2021, June to August 2021, and March to June 2022 ( N = 3,003) from people in Hong Kong with the British National (Overseas) status. The findings show that the Hong Konger identity is associated with a higher level of participation in social movements and a stronger migration intention. There are few variations in these associations across the generations. Furthermore, participation in social movements is a strong push factor to migration, and no generational difference in the association is found. Overall, the findings imply that when political freedom is in decline, as in the case of Hong Kong, a local identity is associated with voicing for reforms. In the case of failed social movements, a local identity and previous experiences in voicing out are associated with a higher chance of exit to another country.

Published: August 2023

Infidelity is a common experience in committed relationships that can lead to significant distress for both partners. While many couples end their relationship following infidelity, a significant portion choose to stay together and attempt reconciliation. In our study, we employed constructivist grounded theory to study the process of healing from infidelity for couples who stay together. Our sample consisted of 16 heterosexual couples who experienced sexual infidelity, chose to stay together, and self-identified as having experienced meaningful healing. Couples had an average age of 27 (range = 19– 46), approximate mean length of relationship at infidelity of 3 years (median = 2 years), and approximate mean time since infidelity of 50 months (median = 24 months). We organize our results into a process model of healing that includes four stages: the revelation of the infidelity, initial reactions, stabilizing the relationship, and revitalizing the relationship. The grounded theory suggests there is a developmental progression of healing as couples jointly work to re-establish their relationship. This process includes assessing the damage, affirming commitment, establishing accountability, seeking reconnection, communicating deeply, re-establishing trust, and moving from initial to deeper forgiveness. Our results also suggest that couples’ shared history, sociocultural factors, and receipt of formal and informal support shaped how they experienced the infidelity and engaged in healing. We discuss key clinical implications of the grounded theory, especially related to the role therapy can play in facilitating healing, the importance of open communication and processing emotions, deepening forgiveness, and the reciprocal process of restoring trust.

Published: August 2023

Objective To evaluate and assess changes in temporomandibular joint (TMJ), dental, skeletal and soft tissue changes following bimaxillary anchored fixed functional appliance (FFA) treatment of skeletal Class II malocclusion using Magnetic Resonance Imaging. Methods The prospective single-arm clinical trial included 15 patients (8 males, 7 females; mean age 15.71 + 1.81years) with Class II Division 1 malocclusion treated with bimaxillary anchored Forsus FRD. Four miniplates were placed bilaterally in maxilla and mandible. Then Forsus FRD L pin module was attached to miniplates without levelling of the arches. Pre-treatment (T1) and post-functional (T2) lateral cephalograms and MRI of TMJ were recorded. A total of 7 parameters were used to assess TMJ in all the 3 planes using MRI. Student’s t-test was carried out to compare pre- and post-treatment-induced changes. Results The mandible significantly moved forward (SNB, 3.71 + 0.91°; SND, 3.21 + 1.25°; Pg-OLp, 2.61 + 0.66 mm, p < 0.001) and there was distalizing effect on maxilla (SNA, –0.79 + 0.89°; A-OLp, –0.57 + 0.47mm, &lt;0.001). Mean overjet correction of 4.43mm was achieved, of which 71.8% were skeletal changes. 65% of skeletal changes contributed to molar relationship correction. The forward positioning of mandible seems to be because of condylar and glenoid fossa remodelling, with condyle moving in anterior position within glenoid fossa (3.28 + 2.29) and articular disc moved posteriorly relative to condylar head (2.27 + 1.62°). Conclusion Significant skeletal changes and TMJ remodelling were observed with bimaxillary anchored FFA in correcting skeletal Class II malocclusion.
Why is There No History of Fascist International Thought?
Authors: Allen Kye J. 
Published: August 2023

Notwithstanding recent efforts, historians of international thought have yet to adequately address the highly heterogeneous and often paradoxical ideas espoused by international thinkers of a fascist persuasion. Instead, fascist international thought has commonly been ignored or otherwise reduced to an antiquated Darwinian realism. This article aims to present a case for how and why this fragmentary situation should be corrected. Specifically, it advocates for a closer interdisciplinary engagement between the history of international thought and the field of fascist studies. It thus implores the former to consider salient thematic and methodological developments within the latter and adapt them accordingly. The consequent research agenda that emerges feasibly offers novel insight into (I) unexplored avenues in the history of international thought and the disciplinary history of International Relations, alongside presenting both (II) theoretical and (III) normative implications for the discipline as such. Pourquoi n’y a-t-il pas d’Histoire de la pensée fasciste internationale?
Marx’s general rate of profit: How turnover time, accumulation and rate of surplus value affect the formation of prices of production
Authors: Marco Guido De 
Published: August 2023

Most scholars interpret Marx’s prices of production as those which achieve simple reproduction assuming profit rates are equal and all capitals turn over completely each year. The dynamics of equalization, as circulation intertwines with production over the business cycle, is absent. The traditional ‘Marxist’ equation for the profit rate likewise considers only simple reproduction. This leaves a gap in our understanding of Marx, particularly regarding the impact of turnover time on the profit rate, one of Ricardo’s original problems which Marx claimed to solve. Starting from a critique of Veronese Passarella’s and Baron’s attempt to extend the traditional equation to expanded reproduction, I develop a more general equation showing how changes in turnover times, rate of surplus value and accumulation affect the equalization process, the formation of the general profit rate and hence of prices of production. Finally, considering Moseley’s introduction to the recently published translation of a 27-page excerpt from Marx’s Economic Manuscript of 1867–1868, I suggest an equation for decomposing the profit adjustment during equalization.

Purpose Bard by Google, a direct competitor to ChatGPT, was recently released. Understanding the relative performance of these different chatbots can provide important insight into their strengths and weaknesses as well as which roles they are most suited to fill. In this project, we aimed to compare the most recent version of ChatGPT, ChatGPT-4, and Bard by Google, in their ability to accurately respond to radiology board examination practice questions. Methods Text-based questions were collected from the 2017-2021 American College of Radiology’s Diagnostic Radiology In-Training (DXIT) examinations. ChatGPT-4 and Bard were queried, and their comparative accuracies, response lengths, and response times were documented. Subspecialty-specific performance was analyzed as well. Results 318 questions were included in our analysis. ChatGPT answered significantly more accurately than Bard (87.11% vs 70.44%, P < .0001). ChatGPT’s response length was significantly shorter than Bard’s (935.28 ± 440.88 characters vs 1437.52 ± 415.91 characters, P < .0001). ChatGPT’s response time was significantly longer than Bard’s (26.79 ± 3.27 seconds vs 7.55 ± 1.88 seconds, P < .0001). ChatGPT performed superiorly to Bard in neuroradiology, (100.00% vs 86.21%, P = .03), general & physics (85.39% vs 68.54%, P < .001), nuclear medicine (80.00% vs 56.67%, P < .01), pediatric radiology (93.75% vs 68.75%, P = .03), and ultrasound (100.00% vs 63.64%, P < .001). In the remaining subspecialties, there were no significant differences between ChatGPT and Bard’s performance. Conclusion ChatGPT displayed superior radiology knowledge compared to Bard. While both chatbots display reasonable radiology knowledge, they should be used with conscious knowledge of their limitations and fallibility. Both chatbots provided incorrect or illogical answer explanations and did not always address the educational content of the question.

Aim We reviewed the clinical features of a sample of pediatric acquired demyelinating syndromes with the purpose of determining the appropriate protocol for follow-up after the first episode. Methods A multicenter retrospective observational study was conducted on a cohort of 40 children diagnosed with a first episode of acquired demyelinating syndrome over the period 2012-2021. Patients were evaluated with clinical and neuroradiologic assessment after 3, 6, and 12 months, with a median follow-up of 4.0 years. Results At the first acquired demyelinating syndrome episode, 18 patients (45%) were diagnosed with acute disseminated encephalomyelitis, 18 (45%) with clinical isolated syndrome, and 4 (10%) with multiple sclerosis. By month 12, 12 patients (30%) had progressed from an initial diagnosis of acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (2) or clinical isolated syndrome (10) to multiple sclerosis. Of these, 6 had clinical relapse and 6 radiologic relapse only. The first relapse occurred after a median of 3 months. Among the patients who had evolved toward multiple sclerosis, there was a prevalence of females ( P = .014), higher oligoclonal bands positivity ( P = .009), and older median age ( P < .001) as compared with those who had remained stable. Interpretation Both clinical and radiologic follow-up of children with acquired demyelinating syndromes is crucial, especially during the first year after acute onset, for early identification of multiple sclerosis and prompt initiation of disease-modifying treatment to delay axonal damage and to limit disability.

Objective Recent therapeutic advances have greatly enhanced the survival rates of patients with neuroblastoma (NB). However, the outcomes of neuroblastoma patients in China, particularly those with high-risk (HR) NB, remain limited. Method We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data and outcomes of NB patients who were treated at a tertiary pediatric cancer facility in China between January 2013 and October 2021. Results A total of 117 NB patients were recruited. Patients with very low-risk (VLR), low-risk (LR), intermediate-risk (IR), and HR-NB patients made up 4%, 27%, 15%, and 54% of total patient population, respectively. Patients diagnosed between 2013 and 2018 were treated according to the protocol of Sun Yat-Sen University Cancer Center and those diagnosed between 2019 and 2021 were treated according to the COG ANBL0531 or ANBL0532 protocol with or without autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). The 5-year EFS and OS of all risk groups of patients were 67.29% and 77.90%, respectively. EFS and OS were significantly decreased in patients with higher risk classifications (EFS: VLR/LR vs IR vs HR: 97.22% vs 67.28% vs 51.83%; ***P = .001; OS: VLR/LR vs IR vs HR: 97.06% vs 94.12% vs 64.38%; *P = .046). In HR-NB patients treated according to the COG protocol between 2019 and 2021, the 3-year OS of patients who received tandem ASCT was significantly greater than those who did not receive ASCT (93.33% % vs 47.41%; *P = .046; log-rank test). EFS was not significantly different between patients with and without ASCT (72.16% vs 60.32%). Conclusion Our findings show that patients with lower risk classification have a positive prognosis for survival. The prognosis of patients with HR-NB remains in need of improvement. ASCT may enhance OS in HR-NB patients; however, protocol adjustment may be necessary to increase EFS in these patients.
What Does It Mean to be an Adult? Adulthood Markers in the Perspective of Emerging Adults
Authors: Walczak Anna 
Published: August 2023

Debate on the markers of adulthood reflects social and cultural changes shaping the socially constructed definitions of transition to the next life stages. These processes are particularly interesting in societies facing rapid changes in a relatively short period. The presented article explores definitions of adulthood of Polish emerging adults and relates dominating concepts to the classic Big Five. The study is based on a random, all-country sample of young adults (18–29 years old, n = 303). The most frequently described criteria of adulthood are related to responsibility and independence (decisive, financial, and residential). Three of five classic markers – finishing school, getting married, and having a child – have lessened in significance. Further analysis reveals that the fourth classic marker – independent housing – does not play a key role, albeit independence is significantly associated with financial autonomy.

Published: August 2023

Introduction Newly graduating nurses should be able to enter clinical practice as safe, accurate, competent, and compassionate professionals in health care settings that necessitate them to be learners who can easily get familiar with a broad diversity of clinical practice settings. Purposes The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of high-fidelity simulation experiences on self-satisfaction and self-confidence among the pediatric nursing students. Methods A quasi-experimental design, post-test, was carried out through the recruitment of a convenience sample of 150 nursing students from Arab American University. The students were randomly assigned to the study ( n  =  75) or control ( n  =  75) groups. Data were collected using learner satisfaction and self-confidence scales. Results The results of the post-test revealed that there was a significant difference between both groups in self-satisfaction ( t (148)  =  11.14, P < .001) and self-confidence ( t (148)  =  13.04, P < .001). The mean score of self-satisfaction for the study group (22.45  ±  2.27) was higher than control group (16.80  ±  3.76). Also, the study group’ mean self-confidence score (35.72  ±  3.49) was higher than the control group (27.28  ±  4.39). Conclusion High-fidelity simulation was confirmed to be an helpful tool to keep an effective and safe learning method for pediatric nursing students, thus increasing their satisfaction and confidence.

Introduction Japanese men with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) usually encounter work-related difficulties when engaging in dietary modifications. Hence, healthcare providers must understand the psychological factors, such as the needs and goals, that motivate them to engage in dietary modifications. Objective We aimed to describe the psychological factors motivating male Japanese workers with T2DM to engage in dietary modifications. Methods Using a qualitative descriptive design, we conducted semi-structured interviews with 11 male Japanese workers with T2DM and identified categories based on semantic differences using qualitative content analysis. Results The following eight categories emerged: (I want to) demonstrate my skills at work, be able to engage in dietary modifications on my own, avoid unpleasant symptoms caused by eating, avoid burdensome treatment, maintain my healthy life, get positive results in medical examinations, maintain my relationships with others, and enjoy healthy food. Conclusion The factors motivating the participants to engage in dietary modifications were realistic and sincere desires rooted in their ideal lives. Their desire to prioritize work emerged as an important factor. Healthcare providers should identify an individual's ideal daily life, including work aspects, and encourage individuals to set realistic and valuable goals.

Abstract
Background
Mycoplasma ovipneumoniae is a critical pathogen that causes respiratory diseases that threaten Caprini health and cause economic damage. A genome-wide study of M. ovipneumoniae will help understand the pathogenic characteristics of this microorganism.

Results
Toxicological pathology and whole-genome sequencing of nine M. ovipneumoniae strains isolated from goats were performed using an epidemiological survey. These strains exhibited anterior ventral lung consolidation, typical of bronchopneumonia in goats. Average nucleotide identity and phylogenetic analysis based on whole-genome sequences showed that all M. ovipneumoniae strains clustered into two clades, largely in accordance with their geographical origins. The pan-genome of the 23 M. ovipneumoniae strains contained 5,596 genes, including 385 core, 210 soft core, and 5,001 accessory genes. Among these genes, two protein-coding genes were annotated as cilium adhesion and eight as paralog surface adhesins when annotated to VFDB, and no antibiotic resistance-related genes were predicted. Additionally, 23 strains carried glucosidase-related genes (ycjT and group_1595) and glucosidase-related genes (atpD_2), indicating that M. ovipneumoniae possesses a wide range of glycoside hydrolase activities.

Conclusions
The population structure and genomic features identified in this study will facilitate further investigations into the pathogenesis of M. ovipneumoniae and lay the foundation for the development of preventive and therapeutic methods.
