New Biogeochemical Proxies in Seep Bivalves
Authors: Wang Xudong , Kiel Steffen , Feng Dong 
Published: May 2023

AbstractReduced compounds dissolved in seeping fluids, such as methane and hydrogen sulfide, are the main energy sources in submarine cold seep systems, where they nourish the unique chemosynthesis-based ecosystems. Chemosymbiotic bivalves are the dominant macrofauna in many of these ecosystems and have been extensively studied due to their large biomass (hundreds of individuals per square meter), their symbiotic relationships with chemotrophic bacteria (methanotrophic bivalves: methane-oxidizing bacteria; thiotrophic bivalves: sulfur-oxidizing bacteria), and because they are unique archives of biogeochemical processes. In this chapter, we briefly introduce the advancements in seep bivalve research worldwide and then summarize the trophic modes and geographic distribution of seep bivalves in the South China Sea. Thereafter, the biogeochemical processes, such as the enzymatic strategy and energy transfer of seep bivalves, are generalized by integrating the trace elements and stable isotope data of the soft tissues and their corresponding calcareous shells of seep bivalves. Overall, we highlight the past contributions and current knowledge in this field and outline opportunities and future directions to expand this area of research.
Pore Water Geochemistry and Quantification of Methane Cycling
Authors: Hu Yu 
Published: May 2023

AbstractOwing to numerous scientific cruises in the past two decades, pore water data from more than 250 sites within gas hydrate and cold seep areas of the South China Sea have been reported. These investigated sites are mainly distributed in the Dongsha–Taixinan, Shenhu, and Qiongdongnan areas of the northern South China Sea, together with a few sites from the Beikang Basin of the southern South China Sea. Pore water geochemical profiles at these sites have been used to indicate fluid sources that are linked to gas hydrates and methane seepage, to distinguish the anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) from organoclastic sulfate reduction, to reveal fluid flow patterns, and to quantify the rates of AOM. As the pore water data accumulate over a broad area of the SCS, recent attempts have been made to quantify regional sulfate and methane cycling in the subseafloor of the northern South China Sea. This quantitative assessment on a regional scale highlights the importance of deep-sourced methane in governing subseafloor carbon and sulfur cycling along continental margins.

Published: May 2023

Abstract
The main objective of this work is to isolate Effective Field Theory scattering amplitudes in the space of non-perturbative two-to-two amplitudes, using the S-matrix Bootstrap. We do so by introducing the notion of Effective Field Theory cutoff in the S-matrix Bootstrap approach. We introduce a number of novel numerical techniques and improvements both for the primal and the linearized dual approach. We perform a detailed comparison of the full unitarity bounds with those obtained using positivity and linearized unitarity. Moreover, we discuss the notion of Spin-Zero and UV dominance along the boundary of the allowed amplitude space by introducing suitable observables. Finally, we show that this construction also leads to novel bounds on operators of dimension less than or equal to six.

in the mixed case. This simultaneously generalizes the semisimple situation, the case of the complex quantum group at a root of unity, and the algebraic group case in positive characteristic. We describe character formulas and give a presentation of the category of tilting modules as an additive category via a quiver with relations. Turning to the monoidal structure, we describe fusion rules and obtain an explicit recursive description of the appropriate analog of Jones–Wenzl projectors.
Postoperatives Management nach dekompressiver Hemikraniektomie bei malignem Mediainfarkt – eine deutschlandweite Umfragestudie
Authors: Schoene D. , Hartmann C. , Winzer S. , Moustafa H. , Günther A. , Puetz V. , Barlinn K. ,   IGNITE study group
Published: May 2023

Zusammenfassung
Hintergrund
Der maligne Mediainfarkt ist ein potenziell lebensbedrohliches Krankheitsbild. Die dekompressive Hemikraniektomie gehört zur leitliniengerechten Behandlungspraxis insbesondere bei Patienten/-innen bis zu 60 Jahren. Für das postoperative Management gibt es keine standardisierte Handlungsempfehlung.

Ziel der Arbeit (Fragestellung)
Die Untersuchung zielt darauf ab, die gegenwärtige Versorgungslage hinsichtlich der Anwendung standardisierter Behandlungskonzepte zu analysieren und Impulse für eine optimierte Versorgung von Patienten/-innen mit einem malignen Mediainfarkt im neurointensivmedizinischen Bereich zu generieren.

Material und Methoden
Vom 20.09.2021 bis zum 31.10.2021 wurden 43 Mitglieder des Netzwerks Initiative of German NeuroIntensive Trial Engagement (IGNITE) eingeladen, an einer standardisierten anonymen Onlineumfrage teilzunehmen. Es erfolgte eine deskriptive Datenanalyse.

Ergebnisse
Neunundzwanzig von 43 Zentren (67,4 %) nahmen an der Umfrage teil, davon 24 Universitätskliniken. Über eine eigenständige neurologische Intensivstation verfügen 21 Krankenhäuser. Während 23,1 % ein standardisiertes Vorgehen bei der postoperativen Analgesie und Sedierung favorisieren, werden in der Mehrzahl individuell gewählte Kriterien hinzugezogen (Einschätzung der Zunahme des intrakraniellen Druckes, Weaningparameter, Komplikationen). Der Zeitpunkt der angestrebten Extubation variiert zwischen den Kliniken (≤ 24 h bei 19,2 %, ≤ 3 Tage bei 30,8 %, ≤ 5 Tage bei 19,2 %, > 5 Tage bei 15,4 %). Eine Frühtracheotomie (≤ 7 Tage) wird bei 19,2 % der Kliniken durchgeführt. Intravenöse Osmotherapeutika werden bei 53,9 % standardisiert angewandt. Zweiundzwanzig Zentren (84,6 %) erklärten sich bereit, an einer klinischen Studie zur Dauer der postoperativen Sedierung und Beatmung teilzunehmen.

Diskussion
Die Ergebnisse zeigen eine bemerkenswerte Heterogenität in der Behandlungspraxis von Patienten/-innen mit malignem Mediainfarkt und insbesondere der Dauer der postoperativen Analgesie und Sedierung sowie Beatmung nach erfolgter Hemikraniektomie in Deutschland. Die Durchführung einer randomisierten Studie zur Sedierungsdauer nach Hemikraniektomie scheint gerechtfertigt.

Published: May 2023

Zusammenfassung
Hintergrund
Kindliche Gewalterfahrungen können schwerwiegende Schädigungen hervorrufen. Durch frühzeitiges Erkennen von familiären Risikofaktoren können Hilfen zielgerichtet angeboten werden. Die Studie untersucht familiäre Risikofaktoren in Misshandlungsfällen, um die Ergebnisse für den präventiven Kinderschutz heranzuziehen.

Methoden
Es erfolgte eine retrospektive Auswertung von 368 rechtsmedizinischen Fallakten misshandelter Kinder (0 bis 14 Jahre) im Vergleich zu einer Kontrollgruppe von Kindern ohne Misshandlungsverdacht (n = 336). Erhoben wurden demografische und soziale Faktoren, die psychische Gesundheit der leiblichen Eltern und die angeschuldigten Personen. Zudem wurden vorherige Kontakte der Familien zu Jugendämtern ausgewertet.

Ergebnisse
Ein junges Alter der Eltern und von der traditionellen Familienform abweichende Familienkonstellationen wurden als signifikante Risikofaktoren für Kindesmisshandlung identifiziert. Die Auswertung der Anzahl der Geschwister und der Position in der Geschwisterreihe ergab keine signifikanten Unterschiede. Bei niedrigen Erfassungsquoten (2–22 %) wurden auch für die Faktoren Drogenmissbrauch, Vorstrafen, Migrationshintergrund, psychische Gesundheit, Arbeitslosigkeit und Bildungsstatus der leiblichen Eltern keine signifikanten Unterschiede festgestellt. In über einem Drittel der Misshandlungsfälle waren die Familien bereits beim Jugendamt bekannt (36 %). Am häufigsten wurden Mutter (24 %), Vater (22 %) oder beide Elternteile (31 %) beschuldigt, die Misshandlung begangen zu haben.

Schlussfolgerung
Bei ärztlichen Untersuchungen von Kindern und misshandlungsverdächtigen Verletzungen sollte immer die soziale Anamnese erhoben und in die Beurteilung einbezogen werden, um bei erhöhtem Misshandlungsrisiko frühzeitig Hilfen aufzuzeigen.

Abstract
Purpose
To explore the predictive value of preoperative magnetic resonance imaging structural and diffusion indices of the spinal trigeminal tract (SpTV) on the results of microvascular decompression (MVD) in patients with trigeminal neuralgia (TN).

Methods
This retrospective study included patients diagnosed with TN and treated with MVD in the Jining First People’s Hospital between January 2020 and January 2021. The patients were divided into good and poor results groups according to postoperative pain relief. Logistic regression analysis was performed to explore independent risk factors for poor results of MVD, and their predictive value was examined using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves.

Results
A total of 97 TN cases were included, 24 cases with a poor result and 73 with a good result. They were comparable in demographic characteristics. Fractional anisotropy (FA) was lower (P < 0.001), and radial diffusivity (RD) was higher (P < 0.001) in the poor result group compared to the good result group. Patients in the good result group showed a higher proportion of grade 3 neurovascular contact (NVC) (39.7% vs. 16.7%, P = 0.001) and a lower RD (P < 0.001). The multivariate analysis showed that the RD of SpTV (OR = 0.000016, 95% CI: 0.000–0.004, P < 0.001) and NVC (OR = 8.07, 95% CI: 1.67–38.93, P = 0.009) were independently associated with poor results. The area under the curve (AUC) of RD and NVC were 0.848 and 0.710, and their combination achieved an AUC of 0.880.

Conclusion
NVC and RD of SpTV are independent risk factors for poor results after MVD surgery, and combining the NVC and RD might achieve relatively high predictive value for poor results.

AbstractBackgroundHospital length of stay (LOS) has been used as a surgical quality metric. This study seeks to determine the safety and feasibility of right colectomy as a ≤24‐h short‐stay procedure for colon cancer patients.MethodsThis was a retrospective cohort study using the ACS‐NSQIP database and its Procedure Targeted Colectomy database (2012–2020). Adult patients with colon cancer who underwent right colectomies were identified. Patients were categorized into LOS  ≤1 day (≤24‐h short‐stay), LOS 2–4 days, LOS 5–6 days, and LOS ≥7 days groups. Primary outcomes were 30‐day overall and serious morbidity. Secondary outcomes were 30‐day mortality, readmission, and anastomotic leak. The association between LOS and overall and serious morbidity was assessed using multivariable logistic regression.Results19,401 adult patients were identified, with 371 patients (1.9%) undergoing short‐stay right colectomies. Patients undergoing short‐stay surgery were generally younger with fewer comorbidities. Overall morbidity for the short‐stay group was 6.5%, compared to 11.3%, 23.4%, and 42.0% for LOS 2–4 days, LOS 5–6 days, and LOS ≥7 days groups, respectively (p < 0.001). There were no differences in anastomotic leak, mortality, and readmission rates in the short‐stay group compared to patients with LOS 2–4 days. Patients with LOS 2–4 days had increased odds of overall morbidity (OR 1.71, 95% CI 1.10–2.65, p = 0.016) compared to patients with short‐stay but no differences in odds of serious morbidity (OR 1.20, 95% CI 0.61–2.36, p = 0.590).Conclusions ≤24‐h short‐stay right colectomy is safe and feasible for a highly‐select group of colon cancer patients. Optimizing patients preoperatively and implementing targeted readmission prevention strategies may aid patient selection.

AbstractBackgroundNocturnal enuresis (NE) is a common disease with multiple pathogenic mechanisms. This study aimed to compare levels of metabolites and proteins between wet and dry nights in urine samples from children with monosymptomatic NE (MNE).MethodsTen boys with MNE and nocturnal polyuria (age: 7.6 ± 1.3 years) collected their total nighttime urine production during a wet and a dry night. Untargeted metabolomics and proteomics were performed on the urine samples by liquid chromatography coupled with high-mass accuracy tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS).ResultsOn wet nights, we found reduced urine osmolality (P= 0.025) and increased excretion of urinary potassium and sodium by a factor of, respectively, 2.1 (P =0.038) and 1.9 (P= 0.19) compared with dry nights. LC-MS identified 59 metabolites and 84 proteins with significantly different levels between wet and dry nights (fold change (FC) < 0.67 or > 1.5,P< 0.05). Some compounds were validated by different methodologies. During wet nights, levels of compounds related to oxidative stress and blood pressure, including adrenalin, were increased. We found reduced levels of aquaporin-2 on wet nights. The FCs in the 59 metabolites were positively correlated to the FCs in the same metabolites identified in urine samples obtained during the evening preceding wet and dry nights.ConclusionsOxidative stress, which in the literature has been associated with nocturia and disturbances in sleep, might be increased during wet nights in children with MNE. We further found evidence of increased sympathetic activity. The mechanisms related to having wet nights in children with MNE seem complex, and both free water and solute handling appear to be important.Graphical abstract

AbstractNowadays, quick, and accurate diagnosis of COVID-19 is a pressing need. This study presents a multimodal system to meet this need. The presented system employs a machine learning module that learns the required knowledge from the datasets collected from 930 COVID-19 patients hospitalized in Italy during the first wave of COVID-19 (March–June 2020). The dataset consists of twenty-five biomarkers from electronic health record and Chest X-ray (CXR) images. It is found that the system can diagnose low- or high-risk patients with an accuracy, sensitivity, and F1-score of 89.03%, 90.44%, and 89.03%, respectively. The system exhibits 6% higher accuracy than the systems that employ either CXR images or biomarker data. In addition, the system can calculate the mortality risk of high-risk patients using multivariate logistic regression-based nomogram scoring technique. Interested physicians can use the presented system to predict the early mortality risks of COVID-19 patients using the web-link: Covid-severity-grading-AI. In this case, a physician needs to input the following information: CXR image file, Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH), Oxygen Saturation (O2%), White Blood Cells Count, C-reactive protein, and Age. This way, this study contributes to the management of COVID-19 patients by predicting early mortality risk.
Deep author name disambiguation using DBLP data
Authors: Boukhers Zeyd , Asundi Nagaraj Bahubali 
Published: May 2023

AbstractIn the academic world, the number of scientists grows every year and so does the number of authors sharing the same names. Consequently, it is challenging to assign newly published papers to their respective authors. Therefore, author name ambiguity is considered a critical open problem in digital libraries. This paper proposes an author name disambiguation approach that links author names to their real-world entities by leveraging their co-authors and domain of research. To this end, we use data collected from the DBLP repository that contains more than 5 million bibliographic records authored by around 2.6 million co-authors. Our approach first groups authors who share the same last names and same first name initials. The author within each group is identified by capturing the relation with his/her co-authors and area of research, represented by the titles of the validated publications of the corresponding author. To this end, we train a neural network model that learns from the representations of the co-authors and titles. We validated the effectiveness of our approach by conducting extensive experiments on a large dataset.

AbstractBackgroundA brain glucose metabolism pattern related to phenoconversion in patients with idiopathic/isolated REM sleep behaviour disorder (iRBDconvRP) was recently identified. However, the validation of the iRBDconvRP in an external, independent group of iRBD patients is needed to verify the reproducibility of such pattern, so to increase its importance in clinical and research settings. The aim of this work was to validate the iRBDconvRP in an independent group of iRBD patients.MethodsForty iRBD patients (70 ± 5.59 years, 19 females) underwent brain [18F]FDG-PET in Seoul National University. Thirteen patients phenoconverted at follow-up (7 Parkinson disease, 5 Dementia with Lewy bodies, 1 Multiple system atrophy; follow-up time 35 ± 20.56 months) and 27 patients were still free from parkinsonism/dementia after 62 ± 29.49 months from baseline. We applied the previously identified iRBDconvRP to validate its phenoconversion prediction power.ResultsThe iRBDconvRP significantly discriminated converters from non-converters iRBD patients (p = 0.016; Area under the Curve 0.74, Sensitivity 0.69, Specificity 0.78), and it significantly predicted phenoconversion (Hazard ratio 4.26, C.I.95%: 1.18–15.39).ConclusionsThe iRBDconvRP confirmed its robustness in predicting phenoconversion in an independent group of iRBD patients, suggesting its potential role as a stratification biomarker for disease-modifying trials.

Published: May 2023

Abstract
Background

Astragalus root is a commonly used herb in traditional Chinese medicine. Although renoprotective effects have been reported in some clinical and experimental studies, the details remain unknown.

Methods
We used 5/6 nephrectomized rats as chronic kidney disease (CKD) models. At 10 weeks, they were divided into four groups, namely, CKD, low-dose astragalus (AR400), high-dose astragalus (AR800), and sham groups. At 14 weeks, they were sacrificed for the evaluation of blood, urine, mRNA expression in the kidney, and renal histopathology.

Results
Kidney dysfunction was significantly improved following astragalus administration (creatinine clearance: sham group; 3.8 ± 0.3 mL/min, CKD group; 1.5 ± 0.1 mL/min, AR400 group; 2.5 ± 0.3 mL/min, AR800 group; 2.7 ± 0.1 mL/min). Blood pressure, urinary albumin, and urinary NGAL levels were significantly lower in the astragalus-treated groups than those in the CKD group. Excretion of urinary 8-OHdG, an oxidative stress marker, and intrarenal oxidative stress were lower in the astragalus-treated groups than those in the CKD group. Furthermore, the mRNA expression of NADPH p22 phox, NADPH p47 phox, Nox4, renin, angiotensin II type 1 receptor, and angiotensinogen in the kidney was lower in the astragalus-treated groups compared with the CKD group.

Conclusion
This study suggests that astragalus root slowed CKD progression, possibly through the suppression of oxidative stress and the renin–angiotensin system.
Effect of COVID-19 pandemic on municipal solid waste generation: a case study in Granada city (Spain)
Authors: Peula Francisco J. , Martín-Lara María Ángeles , Calero Mónica 
Published: May 2023

AbstractThe 2020 coronavirus pandemic has involved a series of political and social measures that have been adapted to the spread of the disease. Apart from the severe effects on health sector, the most effects of the pandemic have been felt in households and day-to-day life. Consequently, COVID-19 has had a significant impact on the generation of not only medical and health care waste but also of municipal solid waste production and composition. In this context, this work studied the implications of COVID-19 for municipal solid waste generation in Granada, Spain. Granada is a city where the economy is based mainly on the services sector, tourism and the University. Therefore, the impact of COVID-19 pandemic has greatly affected the city and it can be analyzed through the municipal solid waste generation. For the study of the incidence of COVID-19 in the generation of waste a period that goes from March 2019 to February 2021 has been chosen. The results show that, in the global calculation, a decrease in the generation of waste in the city is observed in this last year, reaching − 13.8%. Regarding the organic-rest fraction, the decrease in the COVID year represents − 11.7%. However, bulky waste has shown an increase in the COVID year which may be related to higher home furnishings renovation rates than in other years. Finally, glass is the waste flow that best indicates the effect of COVID in the service sector. In leisure areas, a significant reduction in the collection of glass is observed (− 45%).
