Management of Desmoid Disease in Familial Adenomatous Polyposis
Authors: Sommovilla Joshua , Shepard Dale , Liska David 
Published: July 2023

AbstractDesmoid disease, though technically a benign condition, is nevertheless a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). Desmoid disease impacts approximately 30% of FAP patients, with several known risk factors. It runs the gamut in terms of severity—ranging from small, slow-growing asymptomatic lesions to large, focally destructive, life-threatening masses. Desmoids usually occur following surgery, and several patient risk factors have been established, including female sex, family history of desmoid disease, 3′ APC mutation, and extraintestinal manifestations of FAP. Desmoid disease-directed therapy is individualized and impacted by desmoid stage, severity, postsurgical anatomy, and consequences of disease. Medical therapy consists of options in multiple classes of drugs: nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, hormonal therapy, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, and cytotoxic agents. Surgical excision is sometimes an option, but can be limited by common location of disease at the root of the small bowel mesentery. Palliative surgical treatments are often considered in management of desmoid disease. Intestinal transplantation for severe desmoid disease is an emerging and promising option, though long-term data on efficacy and survival is limited.
Congenital Retinal Macrovessel. A Case Report of a Rare Incidental Finding
Authors: Bukhatwa Samar A. , Omear Mervat A. 
Published: July 2023

Congenital retinal macrovessel (CRM) is a rare vascular abnormality of the macular region that is usually discovered incidentally.We present the case of a 57-year-old Libyan female patient with a CRM.The patient's left eye showed an abnormally large retinal vein crossing the foveal avascular region, Optical coherence tomographic angiography (OCTA) showed a large retinal vessel in the left eye branching superiorly at the edge of the fovea a vascular zone. The patient has no visual defect or macular thickening.CRM is an incidental finding that, with rare exceptions, does not cause any alteration to the patient's vision. They can be imaged by OCTA and need to be differentiated from other retinal pathologies.
Robotic Rectus Abdominis Harvest for Pelvic Reconstruction after Abdominoperineal Resection

Published: July 2023

AbstractThe use of robotic surgical systems to perform abdominoperineal resection (APR) has recently become more prevalent. This minimally invasive approach produces fewer scars and potentially less morbidity for the patient. The rectus abdominis muscle is often used for reconstruction after APR if primary closure is not feasible or the surgical site is at high risk of wound complications. Since the traditional open harvest of this flap creates large incisions that negate the advantages of minimally invasive APR, there has been growing interest in harvesting the rectus abdominis in a similarly robotic fashion. This article reviews the technique, benefits, and limitations of this robotic technique. Compared to the traditional open harvest, robotic harvest of the rectus abdominis leaves smaller scars, provides technical benefits for the surgeon, and offers possible morbidity benefits for the patient. These advantages should be weighed against the added expense and learning curve inherent to robotic surgery.
Emotional processing in bilinguals: a systematic review aimed at identifying future trends in neurolinguistics
Authors: Sharif Humera , Mahmood Saqib 
Published: July 2023

AbstractThis review is one of the first studies to discuss the status of research on emotional processing in a healthy bilingual brain. Few articles about emotion and cognition coupling have examined how the bilingual brain differs in processing emotional stimuli from the monolingual brain in neuroimaging studies. Having diverse perspectives, tools, and methodologies in interdisciplinary research can help build our understanding of the connection between the mind, language, and emotions. This systematic review uses Moher et al., (2015) PRISMA-P to synthesize relevant publications. In this review study, we discuss common discrepancies, the techniques used to elicit data and the objectives of the emotion and cognition interaction in neuroimaging, psychophysiological and cognitive paradigms. Our findings suggest the focus of future research on simultaneous bilinguals, extended narratives instead of decontextualized stimuli and comparison of different modalities. We provide valuable insight for neurolinguistic researchers in regard to the various limitations in the existing literature that hinder the successful integration of emotion and language studies into the field of neurolinguistics.
Effects of Na+ and Cl− on hydrated clusters by ab initio study
Authors: Shi Ying , Wang Pengju , Li Wenliang , Su Yan 
Published: July 2023

A comprehensive genetic algorithm is used to perform a global search for Cl−(H2O)1–9 and NaCl(H2O)1–9. The structural optimization, energy calculations, vibrational characteristics, and charge distribution were performed at an ab initio high-level theory. Combined with the calculation results of Na+(H2O)1–6 by Wang et al. [Front. Chem. 7, 624 (2019)] in our group, we systematically investigate these three systems at the same theoretical level. A comparison of bond lengths reveals that in Cl−(H2O)n, the inclusion of Na+ to form NaCl(H2O)n reduces the average distance between Cl− and H2O, indicating that Na+ has a stabilizing effect on ionic hydrogen bonds. Conversely, in Na+(H2O)n, the introduction of Cl− weakens the interactions between Na+ and H2O. In the NaCl(H2O)1–9 structures searched by the genetic algorithm, the ground-state configurations correspond to contact ion pairs, and the solvent-separated ion pair structures appear when n = 7. Furthermore, the anharmonic corrected infrared spectra of Cl−(H2O)1–5 and NaCl(H2O)1–4 exhibit good agreement with the experimental results. According to charge analysis of NaCl(H2O)n, it is observed that charge transfer primarily occurs from Cl− to H2O, resulting in the presence of negative charges on the water molecules. These findings are helpful to understand the effects of Na+ and Cl− on hydrated clusters at the molecular level.
Political speeches as a tool of Covid19 crisis management?
Authors: Berrocal Martina , Salamurović Aleksandra 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
This study focuses on crisis communication in the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Serbia, and North Macedonia during the first, second, and third pandemic waves and takes a comparative pragmatics approach. By focusing on pragmatic features, such as speech acts and discursive/linguistic aspects of communicated values, we examine how the Covid19 crisis management is realized on the linguistic micro-level in political speeches as a salient genre of political discourse. Our study shows that the most distinct benefit of political speeches compared to other tools of crisis communication is that they forge transindividual identity, a sense of community, and highlight desired social values. In contrast, political speeches can block effective crisis communication when they exhibit high levels of intertextuality, are saturated with information, and over-aggregation.
Covid-19 vaccination policies in an autocratic context
Authors: Weiss Daniel 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
The paper continues a book chapter devoted to the Belarusian and Russian crisis management during the first months of the pandemic (Weiss 2022). The present chapter examines the second half of 2021 when vaccines were already available in both countries. It is based on data from speeches broadcast on TV, reports by so-called “foreign agents”, i.e. Russian independent investigative agencies, and online news including the official Kremlin site. The main research question focuses on the impact of vaccination on both Lukašenko’s and Putin’s policies: how did their communication strategies change, what was their own stance towards vaccination, and how did they cope with peoples’ reluctance to get vaccinated? The tools to achieve this goal are mainly provided by argumentation theory and impoliteness theory.
The comparison is somewhat impeded by Lukašenko being a tacit COVID denier who rejected any compulsive protective measures but nevertheless had to support vaccination. He mercilessly insulted his ministers who tried to impose protective measures on citizens and he tended to conflate online bloggers criticizing his crisis management with his political opponents. Putin backed the vaccination campaign but did not succeed in overcoming the masses’ passive resistance despite a “split-voice” strategy: whereas he officially maintained his image of an unbiased father of the nation, state media such as the TV station “Russia today”, which attacked anti-vaxxers very aggressively, portrayed him as the main decision-maker and ruthless punisher. His publicly pronounced arguments against compulsory vaccination proved very weak.
Exploiting the crisis
Authors: Breeze Ruth , Gintsburg Sarali 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
The Covid-19 pandemic posed many problems for politicians worldwide, but it also offered an opportunity for some politicians of a populist nature to exploit public fears and tensions by scapegoating migrants, minorities or other countries. In this chapter we follow Moffitt’s (2016) analysis of 21st century populism, in which he shows how crises are constructed discursively by populist leaders, who then stir up antagonism against certain out-groups whom they hold to be responsible for the crisis, and exploit the ensuing polarization in order to gain support. We examine four cases of political exploitation of fake news in which migrants were held responsible for spreading the Covid-19 virus or benefiting from treatment or vaccines before members of the in-group. These four cases are from very different cultural settings (Germany, Spain, Lebanon and India), and they all focus on multimodal evidence. Our analysis shows how each populist leader exploits existing cultural tensions and multimodal repertoires to persuade his/her audience. Although populist politicians draw on a wide range of different visual and textual manifestations embedded into different cultural settings, it is possible to identify certain common key strategies that characterize populist communication in times of crisis.
From risk and responsibility to risk discourse
Authors: Ädel Annelie , Östman Jan-Ola , Höög Catharina Nyström 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
Risk communication is widely researched in the social sciences,
but in linguistics the study of how risk is communicated has not yet formed a
coherent field of its own. In this chapter, we approach risk from a discourse
perspective, aiming to promote the establishment of risk discourse as a field of
study with its own characteristics. We approach the question “What is “risk”?”
through a discourse-linguistic analysis that crucially involves the concept of
responsibility. We show that there is a body of previous research in linguistics
that has dealt with some aspect of risk, but typically without foregrounding risk or
using risk as an analytical tool. We show how this state of affairs also applies to
responsibility. We argue that an understanding of discourse about risk and risk
scenarios needs to be informed by an understanding of the concept of responsibility.
The theoretical point of this chapter is therefore to conceive of and establish this
type of responsibility-embedded Risk Discourse. Throughout the chapter, we discuss
ways in which risk and responsibility can serve as analytical tools in risk
discourse studies. This is illustrated by reference not only to previous research,
but also to the chapters included in the current volume.
Combining governmentality and discourse analysis
Authors: Rasmussen Joel 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
This chapter introduces a governmentality approach to issues of
risk and safety, and carves out an analytical framework that combines it with
appraisal analysis. From the perspective of governmentality, responsibilisation is
the social process whereby actors assign/assume various moral duties that benefit
governing purposes. Institutions and organisations are also increasingly trying to
involve and motivate people to manage risk themselves and thus ‘partner’ with them
in large-scale tasks of improving health and safety. Appraisal analysis can help
demonstrate how actors evaluate risks and safety measures and how they assume or
resist positions of responsibility. The analytical model proposed more specifically
aids an examination of how actors appraise (a) what are risks and what should be
protected; (b) safety measures spanning collective and individual protection (or
lack thereof); and (c) safety measures spanning behavioural prompts and risk
elimination. Choices along these dimensions stand in a dialectical relationship to
certain pervasive, global discourses of risk governance. Focus group discussions on
a nuclear power plant (NPP) accident scenario are analysed, for which state agencies
plan to recover contaminated neighbourhoods. The analysis shows that an enduring
inconsistency in the policy of governing risk through the logic of recovery and
individualised responsibility is a risk mitigation strategy that requires that the
risk be considered tolerable by those who are to face it – a condition that is met
only partially. It is therefore likely that such a policy will be met with
resistance in the event of a nuclear accident, as it was after the Fukushima Daiichi
disaster.
Framing risk metaphorically
Authors: Komatsubara Tetsuta 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
As a case of the metaphorical framing of risk, this chapter
aims to explore metaphors of COVID-19 in Japanese, focusing on changes in
metaphorical sources over time and their social backgrounds based on an analysis of
metaphorical expressions in utterances directly quoted in newspaper articles. The
study is based on 2,593 newspaper articles that include the keyword
koronauirusu ‘coronavirus’. The three principal metaphor types
found were opponent in war framing, natural phenomenon in
disaster framing, and path in journey framing. The
temporal change in the number of examples of each metaphor was closely linked to the
“waves” of new infections. The results suggest that a temporal analysis of
metaphorical framing can lead to a deeper understanding of perspective changes in
risk discourse.
“Your health is in your hands”

Published: July 2023

Abstract
COVID provided researchers an unfortunate but opportune moment
to examine the relationship between disease transmission, public health messaging,
and cultural values. Most studies highlight the effectiveness of collective
messaging and concerns regarding individualist messages. However, these studies
examine COVID message effectiveness from a public health perspective and do not
investigate signs from a linguistic or discourse perspective. Contributing to
research on the linguistic/discursive construction of responsibility and risk (e.g.,
Ädel et al., Chapter 1 in this volume; Östman & Solin 2016) and
research on linguistic landscape (Chun
2022; Shohamy & Gorter
2009), this study uses Scollon and
Scollon’s (2003) Discourses in Place to examine (1)
how responsibility and risk are constructed in storefront COVID signage and (2) how
those constructions index cultural values of individuals and collectivism. Data
include over 500 photographs of COVID-19 storefront signage, including 171
individual, unique signs, gathered across four of New York City’s five boroughs
between September of 2020 and January of 2021. Findings describe both linguistic and
structural (sign layout) constructions of responsibility and risk.
The effects of using machine translation on perceptions of source
credibility
Authors: Lehecka Tomas 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
Machine translation has great potential for increasing the
reach and spread of risk communication in multi-lingual settings. However, the
social psychological effects of communicating via machine translation applications
remain unknown. This study takes a first step to address this research gap. An
online experiment with between-participants design was conducted to investigate the
effects of using machine translation on participants’ perceptions of source
credibility. Participants were asked to navigate a map of a foreign city and follow
the route directions that were given to them by a person in a video either in their
first language or using a machine translation application. Regression models were
used to analyze task performance, perceptions of task difficulty, and perceptions of
source credibility. Contrary to expectations, the results show no significant effect
of using machine translation on the perceptions of source credibility. Implications
for risk communication and future research are discussed.
On security and safety
Authors: Jore Sissel Haugdal 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
Although the concepts of safety and security are often treated
as synonymous, they are increasingly used to distinguish between separate fields of
handling risks: terrorism and other intentional crimes is associated to security,
while safety implies protection from unintentional acts. This chapter investigates
how safety and security, which used to be considered two different phenomena with
different origins and meanings, have now become intertwined through the concept of
risk, not only affecting counterterrorism responsibility but also legitimizing
counterterrorism measures that would not have been accepted previously. Thorough the
concept of risk, terrorism has become not just a threat but a manageable phenomenon
that can be identified, predicted, and handled. By intertwining the discourses of
safety and security, terrorism becomes linked to the responsibility of organizations
and to the management of risk.
An investigation of the formation and pragmatic strategies of “xx-zi”
Authors: Mu Junfang , Zhang Lixin , Chen Yuyang 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
With the stride of technology, new media and online communication bring innovative language phenomena to the fore, in particular, the spread of internet buzzwords. In 2021, the internet buzzword juejuezi gathered momentum on the internet. Enlightened by this online catchword, this paper investigates the popularity behind “xx-zi” and its three types of word-formation, then takes juejuezi derived from “adj.+zi” as the example, conducting a qualitative encoding and analysis of the posts sourced from Weibo based on NVivo 20. Additionally, the study examines the specific pragmatic strategies, such as, praise, compliant and irony, embedded in the posts for further explicating how individuals employ juejuezi to express a chain of connotations in online communication. Notably, the internet buzzword provides channels to mirror the discourse ecology of the internet era, the public’s attitudes and behaviors regarding to shifts of politics, economy and culture change, thus providing a supplement for further research on internet buzzwords.
La thématisation du patient-victime à l’oral
Authors: Repiso Isabel , Granget Cyrille 
Published: July 2023

Résumé
Les énoncés passifs ont traditionnellement fait l’objet, en français, d’études descriptives visant à distinguer
les emplois des auxiliaires être et se faire (Tesnière
1988; Le Goffic 1993; Riegel et coll.
1994; Le Bellec 2014). L’espagnol possède deux auxiliaires formellement
équivalents : ser et hacerse. Or, à la différence du français, leur emploi n’est pas concurrent
puisque hacerse est sémantiquement restreint à l’expression d’actions bénéfiques (e.g., Se hizo masajear
la espalda ; Il s’est fait masser le dos). L’objectif de notre étude est de comparer les moyens
grammaticaux et lexicaux utilisés en français et en espagnol pour thématiser le patient dans des actions désagréables, à l’oral.
Nos résultats montrent que les locuteurs francophones emploient le passif dans 59,3% des réponses, alors que les hispanophones
préfèrent des conceptualisations à la voix active où le patient-victime est marqué sous le cas grammatical d’un objet (37,5%). Au
sein des conceptualisations passives, le français montre une préférence pour se faire +
infinitif (78,9%) alors qu’en espagnol le patient-victime est thématisé à l’aide du complément d’objet
d’affectation introduit par la préposition « a » (58,8%). Notre étude montre que la thématisation du patient-victime est un trait
distinctif entre ces langues et suggère, dans ce domaine conceptuel, une saillance de la perspective passive pour le français.
Giant anomalous Hall and Nernst conductivities in cubic Fe3Pt and Ni3In
Authors: Xiao Shifa , Zhang Daoqing , Wang Ning 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
The topological anomalous Hall effect and the anomalous Nernst effect are of great interest for the development of spintronic devices for energy-efficient data storage and energy harvesting. Using first-principles calculations, we have studied the anomalous Hall conductivity (AHC) and anomalous Nernst conductivity (ANC) of six ferromagnetic compounds Co3Al, Fe3Ge, Fe3Pt, Ni3Ga, Ni3In, and Rh3Cr belonging to the cubic Cu3Au structure. A large AHC of 1973 S cm−1 is obtained for Fe3Pt. Parallel to the large AHC, a giant ANC of −5.41 A mK−1 and −4.18 A mK−1 is observed for Ni3In and Co3Al, respectively. Finally, we found that AHC and ANC can be adjusted by switching the magnetization direction.
Trace detection of canine distemper virus based on surface-functionalized optic-fiber Mach–Zehnder interferometer and the Vernier effect
Authors: Zhang Xinyu , Hou Xiangyu , Feng Wenlin 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
A surface-functionalized cascaded optic-fiber Mach–Zehnder interferometer (MZI) is proposed and fabricated for trace detection of canine distemper virus (CDV). The Vernier effect is formed based on single-mode fiber (SMF)-dislocation single-mode fiber-SMF. The two MZIs serve as the sensing arm and reference arm, respectively. The CDV antibody is modified on the sensing arm to detect CDV antigen, and the surface structure and morphology are analyzed by the atomic force microscope. The sensitivity of the cascaded MZI sensor is about 12 times than that of a single MZI. In the range of 0.1–104 pg ml−1 CDV, the detection limit of the cascaded MZI sensor is 0.1687 pg ml−1, and the response time is 25 min. The sensor also has good temperature, time stability and excellent selectivity. The biosensor has the advantages of low cost, easy preparation, high sensitivity and good selectivity, and has potential application for trace CDV detection.
Defect formation mechanisms in metal nanowire under cyclic loading: a molecular dynamics study
Authors: Kubo Atsushi , Kawai Emi , Sumigawa Takashi , Shima Hiroyuki , Umeno Yoshitaka 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
A series of molecular dynamics simulations were conducted to reveal the fatigue mechanisms in metal nanowires. We applied axial cyclic loading deformation on a copper single-crystal nanowire model and observed the deformation process during cycle evolution. The detailed observation revealed that the deformation mechanisms in the nanowire is essentially different from the case of the macro- and micro-scaled materials because of the lack of dislocation sources. We also found that atomic vacancies were formed continually by dislocation motion even under a simple single-slip condition. The accumulation of vacancies is expected to be a probable mechanism of fatigue in nanomaterials.
