Cross and Crown™: Trademarks and the Legal Naming of American Religions
Authors: Ventimiglia Andrew 
Published: September 2023

ABSTRACTCan religious organizations use American trademark law to assert control over the name of a religion? Further, what is the relationship between a religious organization as guarantor of fundamental spiritual truths and the signs by which it is known? To answer these questions, this article traces the history and role of trademarks in American religion with a focus on Christian Science's faith-branding strategy. This narrative explores the religious use of trademarks as an emergent strategy in the early twentieth century to manage religious practice through brand management and trademark law. Using a combination of archival research and legal analysis, this article explores legal debates about the place of trademarks in American religion followed by a close analysis of the Church of Christ, Scientist—an American religious organization “discovered and founded” by Mary Baker Eddy in the late nineteenth century—which is exemplary in the way it strategically utilized branding and marking strategies as a means of distinguishing Christian Science within a diverse marketplace of competing turn-of-the-century spiritual practices. This article argues that religious trademarks, while controversial, can be used to secure legal authority over licensed Churches, teachings, and materials in lieu of established Church hierarchy. This article interrogates the nature and origins of religious trademark strategies to demonstrate that religious organizations like the Church of Christ, Scientist could operate as particularly savvy users of the law to establish spiritual authority via control of the religious name.
Sŭ-pung-er’s pillar: The recent significant discovery of a relic related to the Franklin Expedition
Authors: Taichman Russell S. 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
In 1866, Charles F. Hall recorded testimony from a Pelly Bay native named Sŭ-pung-er who reported that together with his uncle, they had visited the Northwest coast of King William Island 4 years prior in search of materials abandoned by the Franklin Expedition. Sŭ-pung-er told Hall that he had identified a site which Hall believed was a “vault” which might contain documents and speculated that it could have been a burial site for a high-ranking officer. Sŭ-pung-er’s testimony also included the description of a wooden “pillar, stick or post” which marked the spot of the vault. The location of this site and the pillar have never been found. Yet they remain sought-after for both their significance and the potential bonanza of information about the expedition. Any clue or artefact, which could provide clarity for this site, is therefore of great value. This paper describes a model of the pillar seen on King Williams Island, replicated by Sŭ-pung-er, which Hall brought back from the Arctic and included in his list of Franklin relics. The model, now housed in the Smithsonian Museum of American History, was first featured in a drawing of relics appearing in 1869 in Harper’s Weekly magazine. The fact that this artefact has been in plain sight for so long, but unrecognised for what it is, is significant. The pillar model both provides clarity and continues the mystery surrounding the Franklin Expedition.
Global enhancement network underwater archaeology scene parsing method
Authors: Pan Junyan , Jia Jishen , Cai Lei 
Published: September 2023

AbstractUnderwater archaeology is of great significance for historical and cultural transmission and preservation of underwater heritage, but it is also a challenging task. Underwater heritage is located in an environment with high sediment content, objects are mostly buried, and the water is turbid, resulting in some of the features of objects missing or blurred, making it difficult to accurately identify and understand the semantics of various objects in the scene. To tackle these issues, this paper proposes a global enhancement network (GENet) underwater scene parsing method. We introduce adaptive dilated convolution by adding an extra regression layer, which can automatically deduce adaptive dilated coefficients according to the different scene objects. In addition, considering the easy confusion in the process of fuzzy feature classification, an enhancement classification network is proposed to increase the difference between various types of probabilities by reducing the loss function. We verified the validity of the proposed model by conducting numerous experiments on the Underwater Shipwreck Scenes (USS) dataset. We achieve state-of-the-art performance compared to the current state-of-the-art algorithm under three different conditions: conventional, relic semi-buried, and turbidified water quality. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm performs best in different situations. To verify the generalizability of the proposed algorithm, we conducted comparative experiments on the current publicly available Cityscapes, ADE20K, and the underwater dataset SUIM. The experimental results show that this paper achieves good performance on the public dataset, indicating that the proposed algorithm is generalizable.
Natural resource extraction and ethnic inequality in Dak Lak, Vietnam
Authors: Bierkamp Sina , Nguyen Trung Thanh , Grote Ulrike 
Published: September 2023

AbstractNatural resource extraction is an important livelihood strategy for poor rural households in developing and emerging countries. Despite the sharp decline in poverty in Vietnam, inequality still exists between the ethnic majority and minority. This paper aims to analyze the impact of natural resource extraction on ethnic inequality. We use panel data from Dak Lak in the Central Highlands of Vietnam. The Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition shows that ethnic differences in extraction are due to different group characteristics and different returns to these characteristics. Endogenous switching regressions find that extraction has heterogeneous effects on consumption across extracting and non-extracting households, and between majority and minority households. Treatment effects suggest that extraction sustains the consumption of extracting minority households because their consumption would decline if they stopped extracting. Our results indicate that it is important to improve the natural resource base and the ability of minorities to cope with shocks.

Published: September 2023

AbstractObjectivesHematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) or intensive chemotherapy for the treatment of malignant diseases is a highly distressing experience. The affected person’s resilience is crucial to coping with this challenging experience. Experience with resilience-enhancing interventions in children and young adults during cancer therapy is scarce. The major objective of this work was developing and evaluating an effective psycho-oncological mental training that complements the standard psychosocial care.MethodsIn this prospective, randomized single-center study, a total of 30 patients (12 to 22 years of age) who underwent HSCT or high-dose chemotherapy received either the standard psychosocial care (control group [CG]) or additionally underwent a novel and specifically developed resilience-enhancing 14-session mental training (therapy group [TG]). The patients were observed over an 8-month period and were screened for distress, thyroid, and immune function parameters, as well as generalized anxiety, affect, and sports orientation.ResultsPatients of the TG showed significantly greater improvements in all assessed mental aspects, including anxiety, affect, competitiveness, win orientation, goal orientation, self-optimization, self-blocking, and loss of focus, as well as cortisol levels within 8 months, as opposed to patients of the CG (effect size range ξ: 0.74–1.00).Significance of resultsPatients who underwent the mental training displayed less anxiety, better affect, and improved mental performance with less self-blocking. This resulted in improved goal orientation, competitiveness, self-optimization, and focus when compared to the CG patients. However, larger prospective trials are necessary to substantiate these findings.

Abstract

Aims
The needs of young people attending mental healthcare can be complex and often span multiple domains (e.g., social, emotional and physical health factors). These factors often complicate treatment approaches and contribute to poorer outcomes in youth mental health. We aimed to identify how these factors interact over time by modelling the temporal dependencies between these transdiagnostic social, emotional and physical health factors among young people presenting for youth mental healthcare.

Methods
Dynamic Bayesian networks were used to examine the relationship between mental health factors across multiple domains (social and occupational function, self-harm and suicidality, alcohol and substance use, physical health and psychiatric syndromes) in a longitudinal cohort of 2663 young people accessing youth mental health services. Two networks were developed: (1) ‘initial network’, that shows the conditional dependencies between factors at first presentation, and a (2) ‘transition network’, how factors are dependent longitudinally.

Results
The ‘initial network’ identified that childhood disorders tend to precede adolescent depression which itself was associated with three distinct pathways or illness trajectories; (1) anxiety disorder; (2) bipolar disorder, manic-like experiences, circadian disturbances and psychosis-like experiences; (3) self-harm and suicidality to alcohol and substance use or functioning. The ‘transition network’ identified that over time social and occupational function had the largest effect on self-harm and suicidality, with direct effects on ideation (relative risk [RR], 1.79; CI, 1.59–1.99) and self-harm (RR, 1.32; CI, 1.22–1.41), and an indirect effect on attempts (RR, 2.10; CI, 1.69–2.50). Suicide ideation had a direct effect on future suicide attempts (RR, 4.37; CI, 3.28–5.43) and self-harm (RR, 2.78; CI, 2.55–3.01). Alcohol and substance use, physical health and psychiatric syndromes (e.g., depression and anxiety, at-risk mental states) were independent domains whereby all direct effects remained within each domain over time.

Conclusions
This study identified probable temporal dependencies between domains, which has causal interpretations, and therefore can provide insight into their differential role over the course of illness. This work identified social, emotional and physical health factors that may be important early intervention and prevention targets. Improving social and occupational function may be a critical target due to its impacts longitudinally on self-harm and suicidality. The conditional independence of alcohol and substance use supports the need for specific interventions to target these comorbidities.
Reconstructing and Nowcasting the Rainfall Field by a CML Network
Authors: Zhang Peng , Liu Xichuan , Zou Mingzhong 
Published: September 2023

AbstractCurrently, the opportunistic method to estimate rainfall using commercial microwave links (CMLs) has been shown as an efficient way to complement traditional instruments in terms of spatial‐temporal resolution and coverage. In this paper, we collected data from 26 CMLs in Jiangyin City, Jiangsu Province, and conducted experiments on rainfall field reconstruction and nowcasting. First, the raw CML data were processed to invert the path‐averaged rainfall intensity. Second, the algorithms of inverse distance weighting (IDW) and ordinary kriging (OK) interpolation were employed to reconstruct the rainfall field. Then a 10‐min prediction of the rainfall field was achieved using a nowcasting model based on the long short‐term memory neural network and a setup window was introduced to improve the prediction performance of the first few minutes. The reconstruction results show that the average correlation coefficient (ACC) and the average root mean square error (ARMSE) between the IDW‐based results and daily cumulative rainfall from rain gauges (RGs) are 0.89 and 8.69 mm, respectively, while the ACC and ARMSE between the OK‐based results and RG data are 0.89 and 9.13 mm, respectively. The nowcasting results show that the ACC between the prediction results with a 5‐min setup window and the IDW‐retrieved rainfall fields can reach 0.91 at the first minute and gradually decrease to 0.20 within 10 min. Furthermore, the model has better nowcasting performance for stratiform precipitation and mixed precipitation compared to convective precipitation.
Laboratory Investigation of Hydrodynamic and Sand Dune Morphology Changes Under Wave Overwash

Published: September 2023

AbstractSince the field measurement of wave overwash is difficult to obtain during severe storms, a laboratory experiment is conducted to measure the time and space evolution of the overwash and beach profile over the sand dune continuously using high‐speed video image analysis for different wave conditions of irregular waves and solitary waves. Characteristics of the cross‐shore sediment transport and morphology change are discussed from the laboratory experiment data. The inflection point, which marks the shifting turn in dune crest movement during overwash, is determined by analyzing feature points in the variation of dune geometry. It is confirmed that the overwash water volume rate reaches a maximum value when the inflection point occurs. Additionally, the overwash water volume is found to be linearly related to the deposited sediment volume, and the dune erosion volume is proportional to wave energy flux during the overwash process. The presence of secondary dunes is found to significantly alleviate coast erosion during overwash and reduce shoreline retreat by more than 40%, regardless of the height of the secondary dune crest. Furthermore, the advances and limitations in overwash hydrodynamics are discussed. It is recommended that this continuous morphological change monitoring data be combined with a wave resolution model for detailed hydrodynamic simulations to further understand the overwash process.
The Safe Drinking Water Act at 50: A Policy Model for Grand Challenges
Authors: Sowby Robert B. 
Published: September 2023

AbstractSince its passage in 1974, the U.S. Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) has become a pillar of water resources engineering, utility management, and public health policy. Complementing other environmental legislation from the same period, SDWA set standards for drinking water suppliers, service, and quality and has made an unmistakable positive impact on U.S. communities for the past 50 years. While drinking water faces different specific challenges today, the general principles established by SDWA are the same. Its success may be attributed to its broad political commitment at the federal level, firm enforcement at the state level, and dutiful execution at the local (public water supplier) level—all while customers know exactly what to expect—thus creating clear accountability for safe water. Just as SDWA helped resolve last century's drinking water problems, it can serve as a policy model for addressing this century's grand challenges.

AbstractThe transition from hedonic alcohol drinking to problematic drinking is a hallmark of alcohol use disorder that occurs only in a subset of drinkers. This transition requires long-lasting changes in the synaptic drive and the activity of striatal neurons expressing dopamine D1 receptor (D1R). The molecular mechanisms that generate vulnerability in some individuals to undergo the transition are less understood. Here, we report that the Parkinson’s-related protein leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) modulates striatal D1R function to affect the behavioral response to alcohol and the likelihood that mice transition to heavy, persistent alcohol drinking. Constitutive deletion of the Lrrk2 gene specifically from D1R-expressing neurons potentiated D1R signaling at the cellular and synaptic level and enhanced alcohol-related behaviors and drinking. Mice with cell-specific deletion of Lrrk2 were more prone to heavy alcohol drinking, and consumption was insensitive to punishment. These findings identify a potential novel role for LRRK2 function in the striatum in promoting resilience against heavy and persistent alcohol drinking.
A new wave of innovations within the DNA damage response

Published: September 2023

AbstractGenome instability has been identified as one of the enabling hallmarks in cancer. DNA damage response (DDR) network is responsible for maintenance of genome integrity in cells. As cancer cells frequently carry DDR gene deficiencies or suffer from replicative stress, targeting DDR processes could induce excessive DNA damages (or unrepaired DNA) that eventually lead to cell death. Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors have brought impressive benefit to patients with breast cancer gene (BRCA) mutation or homologous recombination deficiency (HRD), which proves the concept of synthetic lethality in cancer treatment. Moreover, the other two scenarios of DDR inhibitor application, replication stress and combination with chemo- or radio- therapy, are under active clinical exploration. In this review, we revisited the progress of DDR targeting therapy beyond the launched first-generation PARP inhibitors. Next generation PARP1 selective inhibitors, which could maintain the efficacy while mitigating side effects, may diversify the application scenarios of PARP inhibitor in clinic. Albeit with unavoidable on-mechanism toxicities, several small molecules targeting DNA damage checkpoints (gatekeepers) have shown great promise in preliminary clinical results, which may warrant further evaluations. In addition, inhibitors for other DNA repair pathways (caretakers) are also under active preclinical or clinical development. With these progresses and efforts, we envision that a new wave of innovations within DDR has come of age.
Rumination symptoms in treatment-resistant major depressive disorder, and outcomes of repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) treatment

AbstractRumination is a maladaptive style of regulating thoughts and emotions. It is a common symptom of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), and more severe rumination is associated with poorer medication and psychotherapy treatment outcomes, particularly among women. It is unclear to what extent rumination may influence the outcomes of, or be responsive to, repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) treatment of MDD. We retrospectively examined data collected during rTMS treatment of 155 patients (age 42.52 ± 14.22, 79 female) with moderately severe treatment-resistant MDD. The severity of rumination and depression was assessed before and during a course of 30 sessions of measurement-based rTMS treatment using the Ruminative Responses Scale (RSS) and the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9), respectively. Relationships among baseline levels of rumination, depression, and treatment outcome were assessed using a series of repeated measures linear mixed effects models. Both depression and rumination symptoms significantly improved after treatment, but improvement in depression was not a significant mediator of rumination improvement. Higher baseline rumination (but not depression severity) was associated with poorer depression outcomes independently of depression severity. Female gender was a significant predictor of worse outcomes for all RRS subscales. Both depressive and ruminative symptoms in MDD improved following rTMS treatment. These improvements were correlated, but improvement in rumination was not fully explained by reduction in depressive symptoms. These findings suggest that while improvement in rumination and depression severity during rTMS treatment are correlated, they are partly independent processes. Future studies should examine whether rumination symptoms should be specifically targeted with different rTMS treatment parameters.

AbstractAim This study aimed to explore disparities in experience of UK dental foundation trainees in amalgam use at dental school compared to their first year in dental practice.Methods A modified version of the 'survey of Yorkshire dentists' targeted the dental foundation trainees. A mixed-method of quantitative and thematic content analysis was undertaken for the close-ended and free-text responses, respectively.Results Only 35% of participants described their confidence level as 'satisfactory' in placing dental amalgam before starting their dental foundation training and 51% scored the level of teaching between 'very poor' and 'satisfactory'. In total, 63% of respondents were in favour of receiving additional support in placing amalgam restorations during their undergraduate training. Participants indicated that the consequences of amalgam phase-out are increased appointment times and decreased quality of care due to patient and health service unaffordability of amalgam alternatives.Conclusion These findings raise concerns regarding newly qualified undergraduates' confidence, experience and skill in placing amalgams. This suggests the need to increase undergraduate education and training to improve undergraduates' skills and confidence in amalgam procedures to reduce the gap between the dental schools and real-world practice.
