Abstract
Background
Empirical field studies allow us to view how ecological and environmental processes shape the biodiversity of our planet, but collecting samples in situ creates inherent challenges. The majority of empirical vertebrate gut microbiome research compares multiple host species against abiotic and biotic factors, increasing the potential for confounding environmental variables. To minimize these confounding factors, we focus on a single species of passerine bird found throughout the geologically complex island of Sulawesi, Indonesia. We assessed the effects of two environmental factors, geographic Areas of Endemism (AOEs) and elevation, as well as host sex on the gut microbiota assemblages of the Sulawesi Babbler, Pellorneum celebense, from three different mountains across the island. Using cloacal swabs, high-throughput-amplicon sequencing, and multiple statistical models, we identified the core microbiome and determined the signal of these three factors on microbial composition.

Results
The five most prevalent bacterial phyla within the gut microbiome of P. celebense were Proteobacteria (32.6%), Actinobacteria (25.2%), Firmicutes (22.1%), Bacteroidetes (8.7%), and Plantomycetes (2.6%). These results are similar to those identified in prior studies of passeriform microbiomes. Overall, microbiota diversity decreased as elevation increased, irrespective of sex or AOE. A single ASV of Clostridium was enriched in higher elevation samples, while lower elevation samples were enriched with the genera Perlucidibaca (Family Moraxellaceae), Lachnoclostridium (Family Lachnospiraceae), and an unidentified species in the Family Pseudonocardiaceae.

Conclusions
While the core microbiota families recovered here are consistent with other passerine studies, the decreases in diversity as elevation increases has only been seen in non-avian hosts. Additionally, the increased abundance of Clostridium at high elevations suggests a potential microbial response to lower oxygen levels. This study emphasizes the importance of incorporating multiple statistical models and abiotic factors such as elevation in empirical microbiome research, and is the first to describe an avian gut microbiome from the island of Sulawesi.

Abstract
To improve the accuracy of the Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) based quadrotor aircraft localization, a Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filter aided with an integration of the predictive model and Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) is proposed in this work. The FIR filter estimates the quad-rotor aircraft ’s position by fusing the positions measured with the UWB and Inertial Navigation System respectively. When the UWB dada are unavailable, both the ELM and the predictive model are used to provide the measurements, replacing those unavailable UWB data, for the FIR filter. The ELM estimates the measurement via the mapping between the one step prediction of state vector and the measurement built when the UWB data are available. For the predictive model, we mathematically describe the missing UWB data. Then, both the measurements estimated with the ELM and predictive model are employed to estimate the observations via Mahalanobis distance. The test results show that the FIR filter aided by the predictive model/ELM integrated can reduce the Cumulative Distribution Function and position Root Mean Square Error effectively when the UWB is unavailable. Compared with the ELM assisted FIR filter, the proposed FIR filter can reduce the localization error by about 48.59 %, meanwhile, the integrated method is close to the method with a better solution.

Abstract
Background
Information is essential for growth; without it, little can be accomplished. Data gathering has seen significant changes throughout the previous few centuries because of the certain transitory medium. The look and style of information transference are affected by the employment of new and emerging technologies, some of which are efficient, others are reliable, and many more are quick and effective, but a few were disappointing for various reasons.

Aims
This study aims at using TextBlob and VADER analyser with historical tweets, to analyse emotional responses to the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19). It shows us how much of a sociological, environmental, and economic impact it has in Nigeria, among other things. This study would be a tremendous step forward for students, researchers, and scholars who want to advance in fields like data science, machine learning, and deep learning.

Methodology
The hashtag ‘COVID-19' was used to collect 1,048,575 tweets from Twitter. The tweets were pre-processed with a Twitter tokenizer, while TextBlob and Valence Aware Dictionary for Sentiment Reasoning (VADER) were used for text mining and sentiment analysis, respectively. Topic modelling was done with Latent Dirichlet Allocation and visualized with Multidimensional scaling.

Results
The result of the VADER sentiment returned 39.8%, 31.3%, and 28.9%, positive, neutral, and negative sentiment, respectively, while the result of the TextBlob sentiment returned 46.0%, 36.7%, and 17.3%, neutral, positive, and negative sentiment, respectively.

Conclusion
With all of this, information from social media may be used to help organizations, governments, and nations around the world make smart and effective decisions about how to restrict and limit the negative effects of COVID-19. Also, know the opinion and challenges of people, then deal with the problem of misinformation. It is concluded that with popular belief a significant number of the populace regards COVID-19 as a virus that has come to stay, some believe it will eventually be conquered.
The potential scale-free network mechanism underlying the formation of focal epilepsy

Published: January 2023

Abstract
Abnormal brain networks are likely to be the trigger of seizure generation of epilepsy. Clarifying the effects of abnormal structures on brain function is of great significance for brain diseases. Due to the complexity of brain networks, the relationship between structural and functional brain networks is not yet well-defined. In this letter, we apply a generative model depicting the interrelationship between structural and functional connectivity, to reproduce similar resting whole brain networks and focal epileptic networks through networks with different topologies. It is found that only the underlying network connected with scale-free structure can reproduce the properties of focal epilepsy network, while the resting network has a small probability of reproduction under both the small-world network and the scale-free network. In particular, this reproduction capacity is immune to the nodal distance modes of the underlying network. This suggests that there exists severe heterogeneity in the focal epilepsy network similar to the scale-free network, which may facilitate to the clinical structural inference of seizure location.

Abstract
Background
Indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging technology is increasingly widely used in laparoscopic hepatectomy. However, whether it can provide long-term survival benefits to patients with liver malignancies remains unclear. This study investigated the clinical effect of laparoscopic hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) using ICG imaging technology.

Methods
We retrospectively analyzed HCC patients who underwent laparoscopic hepatectomy at Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University from January 2016 to December 2020. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to match patients undergoing ICG fluorescence navigation laparoscopic hepatectomy (ICG-FNLH) with those undergoing conventional laparoscopic hepatectomy (CLH) in a 1:1 ratio to minimize the influence of confounding factors. We compared perioperative status and long-term prognosis between the two groups and performed multivariate analysis to identify risk factors associated with overall survival and recurrence-free survival.

Results
The original cohort consisted of 141 patients, with 50 patients in each group (100 patients in total) after PSM. The anatomical liver resection rate, R0 resection rate, and resection margin distance in the ICG-FNLH group were higher than those in the CLH group. The intraoperative blood loss was lower than that in the CLH group. The recurrence-free survival and overall survival of the ICG-FNLH group were better than those of the CLH group. ICG-FNLH improved the recurrence-free survival of HCC patients (hazard ratio [HR] = 2.165, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.136-4.127, P = 0.024).

Conclusions
Compared with CLH, ICG-FNLH can improve the recurrence-free survival rate of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and may help to improve the long-term prognosis of patients.
A protocol for a scoping review of methodologies used to explore patient experience in post-acute rehabilitation settings
Authors: Torok Zsofia , O’Keeffe Aisling , Darley Andrew , Carroll Áine 
Published: January 2023

Background: Patient experience is routinely collected in the clinical environment in many different ways throughout various person-provider encounters, but so far limited research focused on understanding the methods of using it to improve the quality of healthcare. This paper presents a protocol for a methodological scoping review examining the methods of obtaining, analysing, reporting, and using patient experience data for quality improvement in rehabilitation settings. Methods: The scoping review will be conducted according to the guidelines from the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Manual for Evidence Synthesis and the methodological framework by Arksey & O’Malley. A comprehensive search of the literature will be performed using a three-step search strategy: an initial limited search of two databases was already performed and helped to identified relevant key words and index terms. The developed search string will be adapted and applied across four databases. This will be followed by search of the reference lists of selected sources and hand-search relevant data-hubs. Studies with a clear focus on patient experience or feedback collected or used for healthcare improvement in rehabilitation context, will be included. A data extraction framework will be developed and piloted to guide the literature screening and data charting. Qualitative content analysis will be employed to address research questions and the results will be presented – beside the descriptive format - as a map of data in chart and tabular formats. Conclusions: This scoping review will show the extent and scope of the literature on the applied methods of collecting, communicating, and using patient experience for quality improvement in post-acute rehabilitation settings and will evaluate and map the evidence on these topics. The findings will inform a research project entitled “An exploration into the use of patient experience to inform improvement in a National Rehabilitation Hospital”.
Uniting Through Difference: Rich Cultural-Identity Expression as a Conduit to Inclusion
Authors: Arnett Rachel D. 
Published: January 2023

Although previous research suggests that bringing attention to minority cultural identities in the workplace can lead to professional penalties, this research provides promising evidence that the opposite can occur. I examine how cultural minority employees engaging in rich and meaningful conversations about their racial, ethnic, and national backgrounds (referred to as rich cultural-identity expression) influences majority-group coworkers’ inclusive behaviors, such as majority-group employees’ willingness to socially integrate with and professionally support minority coworkers. Three experiments found evidence of majority-group employees behaving more—not less—inclusively toward minority coworkers who engaged in rich cultural-identity expression, as opposed to small talk that did not bring attention to a minority cultural background. Even when minority employees richly expressed negatively valenced cultural information that could provoke anxiety (such as issues with discrimination), this form of sharing had positive effects on most measures of inclusive behavior in Studies 2 and 3 (although one exception was found in Study 3). No benefits were observed when minority employees engaged in surface-level cultural-identity expression (Studies 2 and 3) and intimate, noncultural self-disclosure (Study 2). The power of rich cultural-identity expression is its ability to increase majority-group individuals’ status perceptions of, feelings of closeness to, and sense of learning potential from minority coworkers. This research provides promising evidence that minority employees may be able to express valued aspects of their cultural identities while gaining—as opposed to jeopardizing—inclusion.

Where is the child? Refugee narratives in contemporary European popular culture
Authors: Moenandar Sjoerd-Jeroen , Godioli Alberto 
Published: January 2023

Abstract
Subjected to what has been called a ‘global mobility regime’, refugees will often find that their destination countries have a limited number of pre-cut identities ready for them and allow them little leeway beyond these. In this paper, we will discuss representations of refugees in European popular culture following the so-called 2015 Syrian refugee crisis. We will analyse the narratives in these representations, and how these negotiate both what refugees are and should be, as well as what Europe, and more specifically the EU, is and should be. Through pathos, humour and shock, these works – two pop songs, a concert film, a comic and a cartoon – do not only convey narratives about the plight of refugees, but also work through how Europe experienced the 2015 crisis, and the ensuing, often conflicting, attitudes towards irregular migration that were expressed in European public discourse. We will discuss how this experience can be conceptualised as a ‘boundary experience’ that creates a before and after, as well as the possibility of new forms of identity – a possibility that may be ultimately rejected. As they take up the topic of irregular migration, we find producers of popular culture looking for words, sounds and images to express and address these attitudes, and to remember – or forget – the 2015 refugee crisis.
“The little links are broke”: Ethnocentrism and Englishness in contemporary British fiction
Authors: Eaglestone Robert 
Published: January 2023

Abstract
This article contrasts three different ways of understanding contemporary British communal life: interpretive accounts based on quantitative political science which stress division and rising ethnocentrism; an account drawing on Arendtian political theory, which again stresses division and loneliness; and accounts developed from three very different contemporary novels: Sarah Moss’s Ghost Wall (2018); Barney Farmer’s Drunken Baker (2018); Bernard Cornwell’s, Warlord (2020). Each explores the current bleak state of the UK in different ways.
Apples versus oranges, normative claims, and other things we did not mention: a response to Purser and Harper (2023)
Authors: Baltiansky Dean , Craig Maureen A. , Jost John T. 
Published: January 2023

Abstract
In a previous article, we observed that system justification was positively associated with the appreciation of humor targeting low-status groups (Baltiansky, Craig, & Jost, 2021). We are pleased to learn that other researchers took interest in our study, reanalyzing the data set we made publicly available and writing a commentary. We are also pleased that, using Bayesian statistical analyses, Purser and Harper (2023) reached the same conclusion we did based on frequentist analyses, namely that low system-justifiers found jokes targeting low-status groups to be less funny than high system-justifiers did. However, we object to the commentators’ use of value-laden language in characterizing the pattern of results and to several unsubstantiated insinuations and allegations of an ideological nature that they make about our motives and opinions about “cancel culture” and the deplatforming of professional comedians.
Up-regulation of collagen type V alpha 2 (COL5A2) promotes malignant phenotypes in gastric cancer cell via inducing epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT)
Authors: Jin Yanfeng , Song Xinyan , Sun Xuankai , Ding Yan 
Published: January 2023

Abstract
Recent studies have reported that collagen type V alpha 2 (COL5A2) is a hub gene and associated with the prognosis of gastric cancer (GC) patients, playing an important role in GC. In this study, we aim to fathom out the biological roles of COL5A2 and its relevant mechanism in GC. Oncomine, gene expression profiling interactive analysis, and UALCAN were used to explore the effects of COL5A2 on GC. Cell counting kit-8 assay, colony formation assay, and transwell assay were conducted to investigate the biological behaviors of GC cell lines AGS and SGC-7901. Quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and western blot were performed to determine gene and protein expressions. COL5A2 expression was up-regulated and negatively correlated with survival percentage of GC patients. COL5A2 expression was notably elevated in high stage and high grade of GC. Down-regulation of COL5A2 inhibited proliferation, migration, and invasion of AGS and SGC-7901 cells. COL5A2 induced epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) by promoting the expressions of mesenchymal markers (SNAI1, SNAI2, TWIST, VIM, and MMP2), thereby facilitating the malignant phenotypes of GC. COL5A2 plays an oncogenic role in GC and has potential to predict the progression and prognosis of GC patients.

Zusammenfassung
Aktuelle Friedensgefährdungen verdeutlichen die dringende Notwendigkeit der Weiterentwicklung schulischer Friedensbildungsprozesse in religionspädagogischer Ausrichtung. Von enormer Bedeutung ist hierbei, die Perspektive der betreffenden Grundschülerinnen und -schüler aufzunehmen. Die Studie „Friedensbild und Friedensbildung“ nimmt sich diesem Ziel an, indem mithilfe der verknüpfenden Erhebung von Kinderzeichnungen und Interviews kindliche Vorstellungen von Frieden und Unfrieden untersucht wurden. In Zusammenführung mit theoriebasierten und interdisziplinären Betrachtungsweisen zum Phänomen Frieden können aus den Ergebnissen subjektorientiert neue und mehrdimensionale Perspektiven für eine Friedensbildung der Zukunft dargestellt werden, die sich unter anderem durch die Wahrnehmung positiven wie negativen Friedens in der Schule und im Religionsunterricht auszeichnet.
Volksgruppenmedien und Digitalisierung •
Authors: Erlinghagen Erika 
Published: January 2023

AbstractSince 1 September 2021, the Hungarian Volksgruppe (ethnic group) in Austria has an online medium under the joint management of the four largest Hungarian associations in Vienna and Burgenland. This unique project was made possible by the new ethnic group funding of the Austrian Federal Chancellery. However, the new communication and networking opportunities offered by the new online medium to the Hungarian community in Austria also go hand in hand with several challenges that go far beyond the question of funding. For example, the editors and staff of the online medium must clarify a number of conceptual and practical issues that are of central importance, especially for minority media. The paper presents both the potentials and the challenges of minority media in the age of digitalization and demonstrates them using the example of the online medium of the Hungarian ethnic group in Austria.
