A neurophysiological perspective on the integration between incidental learning and cognitive control
Authors: Takacs Adam , Beste Christian 
Published: March 2023

AbstractAdaptive behaviour requires interaction between neurocognitive systems. Yet, the possibility of concurrent cognitive control and incidental sequence learning remains contentious. We designed an experimental procedure of cognitive conflict monitoring that follows a pre-defined sequence unknown to participants, in which either statistical or rule-based regularities were manipulated. We show that participants learnt the statistical differences in the sequence when stimulus conflict was high. Neurophysiological (EEG) analyses confirmed but also specified the behavioural results: the nature of conflict, the type of sequence learning, and the stage of information processing jointly determine whether cognitive conflict and sequence learning support or compete with each other. Especially statistical learning has the potential to modulate conflict monitoring. Cognitive conflict and incidental sequence learning can engage in cooperative fashion when behavioural adaptation is challenging. Three replication and follow-up experiments provide insights into the generalizability of these results and suggest that the interaction of learning and cognitive control is dependent on the multifactorial aspects of adapting to a dynamic environment. The study indicates that connecting the fields of cognitive control and incidental learning is advantageous to achieve a synergistic view of adaptive behaviour.

AbstractDefect engineering is foundational to classical electronic device development and for emerging quantum devices. Here, we report on defect engineering of silicon with ion pulses from a laser accelerator in the laser intensity range of 1019 W cm−2 and ion flux levels of up to 1022 ions cm−2 s−1, about five orders of magnitude higher than conventional ion implanters. Low energy ions from plasma expansion of the laser-foil target are implanted near the surface and then diffuse into silicon samples locally pre-heated by high energy ions from the same laser-ion pulse. Silicon crystals exfoliate in the areas of highest energy deposition. Color centers, predominantly W and G-centers, form directly in response to ion pulses without a subsequent annealing step. We find that the linewidth of G-centers increases with high ion flux faster than the linewidth of W-centers, consistent with density functional theory calculations of their electronic structure. Intense ion pulses from a laser-accelerator drive materials far from equilibrium and enable direct local defect engineering and high flux doping of semiconductors.
Robust model predictive tracking control for the wheeled mobile robot with boundary uncertain based on linear matrix inequalities
Authors: Gao Xing , Su Xin , An Aimin , Zhang Haochen 
Published: March 2023

AbstractIn this study, a robust model predictive controller is designed for the trajectory tracking problem of non‐holonomic constrained wheeled mobile robot based on an elliptic invariant set approach. The controller is based on a time‐varying error model of robot kinematics and uses linear matrix inequalities to solve the robust tracking problem taking uncertainties into account. The uncertainties are modelled by linear fractional transform form to contain both parameter perturbations and external disturbances. The control strategy consists of a feedforward term that drives the centre of the ellipse to the reference point and a feedback term that converges the uncertain system state error to the equilibrium point. The strategy stabilises the nominal system and ensures that all states of the uncertain system remain within the ellipsoid at each step, thus achieving robust stability of the uncertain system. Finally, the robustness of the algorithm and its resistance to disturbances are verified by simulation and experiment.
Controller parameter tuning for gain‐scheduled vehicle yaw‐rate control: Virtual reference feedback tuning approach
Authors: Yahagi Shuichi , Suzuki Motoya 
Published: March 2023

AbstractIn control theory, a controller parameter‐tuning method called virtual reference feedback tuning (VRFT) is proposed. VRFT can tune a feedback controller using single experimental data. If VRFT can be applied to a vehicle, the yaw‐rate controller can be adequately tuned without the need for a vehicle model. Therefore, this study expands the results of VRFT to realize the desired yaw‐rate control of autonomous vehicles. The key point of the proposed method is to realize the auto‐tuning of the gain‐schedule proportional–integral (PI) controller based on the vehicle velocity. In this study, the validity of the proposed method using a vehicle dynamics block set is verified.
Distributed fault‐tolerant control for high‐speed trains based on adaptive terminal sliding mode control

Published: March 2023

AbstractHere, a distributed multi‐body dynamics model of high‐speed train (HST) with actuator faults is established. Based on this detail model, a non‐singular terminal sliding mode control method is designed for HST distributed fault‐tolerant control, and the stability of the proposed controller is proved strictly. Considering the high uncertainty of the distributed dynamics model, a radial basis function neural network is introduced to approximate the system uncertainties. Then a universal fuzzy system is proposed to eliminate the chattering problem from sliding mode controller in train control, which further improves the comfort of the train. Finally, numerical simulations are carried out using data from CRH380B train, and model reference adaptive control (MRAC) and adaptive sliding mode control are also tested under the same condition for performance comparison. The results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed controller. Compared with existing MRAC, the root mean square of the speed and position tracking error are reduced by 23.4% and 52%, respectively.

ZusammenfassungDie medikamentöse Hormonablation ist beim fortgeschrittenen hormonsensitiven
Prostatakarzinom und als Backbone in der Kastrationsresistenz ein essenzieller
Therapiebaustein. LHRH-Agonisten gehören zu den am häufigsten eingesetzten Präparaten. Da
diese in der Regel lebenslang gegeben werden, kommt dem Therapiemanagement eine besondere
Bedeutung zu. Klassentypische häufige Nebenwirkungen wie Gewichtszunahme, kardiovaskuläre
Probleme, Hitzewallungen, erektile Dysfunktion oder Osteoporose können die Lebensqualität der
Patienten erheblich einschränken und zu erhöhter Morbidität und Mortalität führen. Dies
gefährdet die Adhärenz und damit auch den Therapieerfolg. Die vorliegende Arbeit gibt einen
Überblick zum Umgang mit Nebenwirkungen unter einer Androgendeprivationstherapie auf der Basis
aktueller Daten und praktischer Erfahrungen.

Akute Gastroenteritis im Kleinkindesalter
Authors: Grasser Monika 
Published: March 2023

SummaryEine akute Gastroenteritis kommt im Kleinkindalter häufig vor, meist wird sie durch Viren ausgelöst. Der Anamnese und der klinischen Untersuchung des Kindes kommt dabei eine große Bedeutung zu, denn Kinder mit einer schweren Gastroenteritis oder sogenannten Reg Flags müssen unverzüglich einem Arzt vorgestellt werden. Therapeutisch stehen die Rehydratation mit einer ausreichenden Flüssigkeitsversorgung und der rasche Nahrungswiederaufbau im Vordergrund. Unterstützt werden kann dies durch eine homöopathische Begleittherapie und den Einsatz einzelner Probiotika.

Published: March 2023

AbstractA continuous adductor canal block (cACB) for pain control in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is always performed by an anesthesiologist. A surgeon-performed cACB during surgery is somewhat questionable in terms of feasibility, reproducibility, and efficacy. This study was divided into two phases. In Phase 1 study, an experimental dissection of 16 cadaveric knees to expose the saphenous nerve and related muscles around the adductor canal was conducted. The extent of dye after injection via a catheter inserted into the adductor canal at the time of TKA was evaluated. In Phase II, a randomized controlled trial study comparing clinical outcomes between surgeon-performed (Group 1) and anesthesiologist-performed cACB (Group 2) during TKA in 63 patients was evaluated. The visual analogue scale (VAS) at rest and during movement at several time points and functional outcomes during hospitalization were compared. The Phase I study demonstrated surgeon-performed cACB during surgery feasible and reproducible with consistent dye extension into the adductor canal after injection via a catheter. In the Phase II study, 29 patients of Group 1 and 30 patients of Group 2 completed the evaluation with no differences in baseline parameters. The VAS during movement at 24 and 36 hours, quadriceps strength, time up and go test, and knee motion at different time points, and total morphine consumption showed no differences between both groups. There were no procedure-related complications. The surgeon-performed cACB during surgery was feasible and reproducible with similar VAS scores and functional outcomes during hospitalization to anesthesiologist cACB. Level of evidence is Level I, prospective randomized trial.

Abstract
Background Research is needed to identify how clinical decision support (CDS) systems can support communication about and engagement with tobacco use treatment in pediatric settings for parents who smoke. We developed a CDS system that identifies parents who smoke, delivers motivational messages to start treatment, connects parents to treatment, and supports pediatrician–parent discussion.
Objective The objective of this study is to assess the performance of this system in clinical practice, including receipt of motivational messages and tobacco use treatment acceptance rates.
Methods The system was evaluated at one large pediatric practice through a single-arm pilot study from June to November 2021. We collected data on the performance of the CDS system for all parents. Additionally, we surveyed a sample of parents immediately after the clinical encounter who used the system and reported smoking. Measures were: (1) the parent remembered the motivational message, (2) the pediatrician reinforced the message, and (3) treatment acceptance rates. Treatments included nicotine replacement therapy, quitline referral (phone counseling), and/or SmokefreeTXT referral (text message counseling). We described survey response rates overall and with 95% confidence intervals (CIs).
Results During the entire study period, 8,488 parents completed use of the CDS: 9.3% (n = 786) reported smoking and 48.2% (n = 379) accepted at least one treatment. A total of 102 parents who smoke who used the system were approached to survey 100 parents (98% response rate). Most parents self-identified as female (84%), aged 25 to 34 years (56%), and Black/African American (94%), and had children with Medicaid insurance (95%). Of parents surveyed, 54% accepted at least one treatment option. Most parents recalled the motivational message (79%; 95% CI: 71–87%), and 31% (95% CI: 19–44%) reported that the pediatrician reinforced the motivational message.
Conclusion A CDS system to support parental tobacco use treatment in pediatric primary care enhanced motivational messaging about smoking cessation and evidence-based treatment initiation.

Abstract
Background Stereotactic radiosurgical rhizolysis of the trigeminal nerve is an established modality increasingly employed to alleviate the symptoms of refractory trigeminal neuralgia. This study analyzes the academic impact of the top 100 cited articles on the radiosurgical management of trigeminal neuralgia.
Methods The Scopus database was searched for articles containing “radiosurgery” and one or more of “trigeminal neuralgia,” “trigeminus neuralgia,” and “tic douloureux.” The top 100 articles written in English were arranged in descending order by citation count. Documents were evaluated for authors, publication year, journal and impact factor, total citations, nationality, study type, radiosurgical modality, and the affiliated institution. Quantitative and qualitative analyses were performed on the data.
Results The most cited articles were published between 1971 and 2019. The average citation per year was 4.3. The most targeted anatomic area was the “root entry zone” or proximal portion of the cisternal segment of the trigeminal nerve. The most utilized modality was Gamma Knife radiosurgery. The country with the highest number of publications was the United States. Thirty-six percent of the articles were published in the Journal of Neurosurgery. Lunsford, Kondziolka, Flickinger, and Régis, respectively, were the most frequently listed co-authors. The most prolific institute was the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.
Conclusion Stereotactic radiosurgery is an important modality in the management of medically or surgically refractory trigeminal neuralgia. This analysis assesses its contributions over the past five decades to identify trends in treatment practices for neurosurgeons and to highlight areas where further study is needed.

Abstract
Background The initial clinical status after aneurysm rupture, whether primary or secondary, determines the final outcome. The most common cause of patient deterioration is a high Hunt and Hess (HH) score, which correlates closely with a high mortality rate. Poor-grade aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is determined as an HH score 4 or 5. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical characteristics of poor graded aneurysmal SAH at our institution.
Patients and Methods During the 5-year period, 415 patients with intracranial aneurysm were admitted to our institution. Patients with poor-grade aneurysmal SAH accounted 31.08% (n = 132) of the total number of ruptured aneurysms. Interventional treatment was predominantly in the form of surgery, whereas conservative treatment included medication and external ventricular drainage. Final outcome was assessed with a modified Rankin score (mRs). Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS version 23.0 with a significance level set to 5% (α = 0.05).
Results The majority of patients (57.6%) were in the age range from 51 to 69 years. Twenty-five patients (18.9%) had an HH score of 4, whereas 107 patients (81.1%) had an HH score of 5. Depending on the location, the majority of patients (n = 43) had an aneurysm on the medial cerebral artery (MCA). The final aneurysm occlusion was performed in 71 patients, of whom 94.36% were treated surgically. A positive outcome (mRs 0–4) was found in 49.25% of patients who underwent primarily surgical, treatment with a mortality of 42.3%. Although the outcome was better in patients with an HH score 4, both groups benefited from surgical treatment.
Conclusion Poor-grade aneurismal SAH is a condition of the middle and older age, with most patients with an HH 5 score and deep comatose state. There was better outcome in patients with an HH score of 4 compared to an HH score of 5 and both groups benefited from surgical treatment, which resulted in a positive outcome in almost 50% of surgically treated patients.
Cathodoluminescence studies of point defects in aluminum nitride
Authors: Lu Zhengqian , Wang Yuning , Wang Chuang , Wang Fang , Xu Ke , Liu Yuhuai 
Published: March 2023

There is near-ultraviolet and yellow light absorption in AlN crystal. The defect of this absorption hampers the transmittance of ultraviolet light, which, in turn, limits the application of aluminum nitride substrate in deep ultraviolet electronic devices. In this paper, the sources of absorption defects are determined through the first principle simulation method and the cathodoluminescence test of four samples with different growth modes on two substrates. The peak positions of the two AlN grown by metal–organic chemical vapor deposition were observed at 370 and 480 nm; two AlN samples grown by hydride vapor phase epitaxy only observed luminescence near 370 nm. Through the characterization of sample components by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, it is speculated that O impurity component and Al vacancy in AlN crystal form donor–acceptor pairs, which are the source of 370 nm luminescence; with the increase in O concentration, a composite defect with Al vacancy is formed, which is the source of 480 nm luminescence. This is very important for further research on eliminating impurity absorption in an AlN epitaxial layer.
Partial replacement of maize with cassava root–moringa leaf and vegetable oil concentrates in broiler finisher diets
Authors: Havea Tigris , Diarra Siaka , Pym Robert A. E. 
Published: March 2023

Context Roots and leaves have potential as feed ingredients for poultry, but antinutritional factors (ANFs), high fibre and low energy may limit their efficient utilisation. There is need to improve processing methods and diet formulation for maximum utilisation of these readily available resources and reduce feed cost. Aim To investigate the replacement of maize with cassava root, moringa leaf meal and vegetable oil blend in finisher broiler diets. Methods In total, 160 male broiler chickens aged 30 days were weighed and allotted randomly to 20 deep litter pens containing eight birds of similar individual weight (1500 g ± 16.11). Four broiler finisher iso-energetic and iso-nitrogenous diets were formulated for the experiment. Diet 1 was based on maize and in Diets 2, 3 and 4, 15%, 30% and 45% of maize was replaced respectively, by a concentrate of cassava root meal, moringa leaf meal and vegetable oil combination (CMOC). Each diet was given to five pens in a completely randomised design for a period of 12 days. Key results There were no significant differences in the growth parameters of birds among treatments. Except for drumsticks of birds on the 30% CMOC diet, there were no significant effects of diet on carcass components or digestive organ weights (P > 0.05). Gizzard pH was higher in the control birds than in the test groups. Feed cost per kilogram of carcass weight was significantly (P < 0.05) lower with the dietary inclusion of CMOC. Conclusion Replacing up to 30% of the maize with CMOC is beneficial and replacement up to 45% is not detrimental. However, the economic benefits of maize replacement with CMOC need to be re-evaluated with ingredient costings less affected by the present COVID-19 pandemic. Implications Maximum utilisation of cassava root and moringa leaf meal in the diet will reduce cost and improve income of small- to medium-holder broiler producers.
Study of the intermediate mass ratio black hole binary merger up to 1000:1 with numerical relativity
Authors: Lousto Carlos O , Healy James 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
We explicitly demonstrate that current numerical relativity techniques are able to accurately evolve black hole binaries with mass ratios of the order of 1000:1. This proof of principle is relevant for future third generation gravitational wave detectors and space mission LISA, as by purely numerical methods we would be able to accurately compute gravitational waves from the last stages of black hole mergers, as directly predicted by general relativity. We perform a sequence of simulations in the intermediate to small mass ratio regime,

. We compare these headon full numerical evolutions with the corresponding semianalytic point particle perturbative results finding an impressive agreement for the total gravitational radiated energy and linear momentum as well as for the waveform spectra. We display numerical convergence of the results and identify the minimal numerical resolutions required to accurately solve for these very low amplitude gravitational waves. This work represents a first step towards the considerable challenge of applying numerical-relativity waveforms to interpreting gravitational-wave observations by LISA and next-generation ground-based gravitational-wave detectors.
