Preventive Care: Improving Health of Medicare, Medicaid, and Children’s Health Insurance Program Patients Through Access to Fresh Fruit and Vegetables
Authors: McClain Weston 
Published: April 2023

AbstractDiet is the number one risk factor for deaths in the United States. Members of marginalized and impoverished communities particularly struggle to afford nutritious food. Poor diets result in health disparities along socio-economic, age, racial, ethnic, indigenous, rural, and urban lines. Despite the ever-growing social and financial burden of diet-related chronic diseases, the U.S. has failed to invest in health care-related dietary policy. This Article proposes produce prescriptions as a national dietary preventive medicine program through Medicare, Medicaid, and the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP).Recently, nonprofits, governments, and health care providers have designed innovative produce prescription programs to combat diet-related chronic diseases. In these programs, clinical providers can prescribe subsidized fruit and vegetables to patients. Produce prescriptions empower patients by making dietary change affordable and by motivating patients to improve their health. Numerous studies, pilot projects, and local programs demonstrate that produce prescriptions can improve health care outcomes for individuals from diverse communities. Most at-risk members of our society receive health coverage through Medicare, Medicaid, or CHIP. This Article analyzes how to scale up produce prescriptions within these programs using law and policy.
Premium control with reinforcement learning
Authors: Palmborg Lina , Lindskog Filip 
Published: April 2023

AbstractWe consider a premium control problem in discrete time, formulated in terms of a Markov decision process. In a simplified setting, the optimal premium rule can be derived with dynamic programming methods. However, these classical methods are not feasible in a more realistic setting due to the dimension of the state space and lack of explicit expressions for transition probabilities. We explore reinforcement learning techniques, using function approximation, to solve the premium control problem for realistic stochastic models. We illustrate the appropriateness of the approximate optimal premium rule compared with the true optimal premium rule in a simplified setting and further demonstrate that the approximate optimal premium rule outperforms benchmark rules in more realistic settings where classical approaches fail.
Whose Hermeneutical Marginalization?
Authors: Clanchy Nick 
Published: April 2023

AbstractAccording to Miranda Fricker, being hindered from rendering something significant about oneself intelligible to someone constitutes a hermeneutical injustice only if it results from the hermeneutical marginalization of some group to which one belongs. A major problem for Fricker's picture is that it cannot properly account for the paradigm case of hermeneutical injustice Fricker herself takes from Ian McEwan's novel Enduring Love. In order to account properly for this case, I argue that being hindered from rendering something significant about oneself intelligible to someone can constitute a hermeneutical injustice so long as it results from the hermeneutical marginalization of some group – whether or not one belongs to that group. One upshot is that Fricker's distinction between systematic and incidental cases of hermeneutical injustice needs redrawing, and I show how this can be done. Another is that hermeneutical injustice is more widespread than Fricker recognizes.
Multiply connected wandering domains of meromorphic functions: the pursuit of uniform internal dynamics
Authors: FERREIRA GUSTAVO R. 
Published: April 2023

AbstractRecently, Benini et al showed that, in simply connected wandering domains of entire functions, all pairs of orbits behave in the same way relative to the hyperbolic metric, thus giving us our first insight into the general internal dynamics of such domains. The author proved in a recent paper [G. R. Ferreira. Multiply connected wandering domains of meromorphic functions: internal dynamics andconnectivity. J. Lond. Math. Soc. (2) 106 (2022), 1897–1919] that the same is not true for multiply connected wandering domains, a natural question is how inhomogeneous multiply connected wandering domains can be. We give an answer to this question, in that we show that uniform dynamics inside an open subset of the domain generalizes to the whole wandering domain. As an application of this result, we construct the first example of a meromorphic function with a semi-contracting infinitely connected wandering domain.
Wonderful compactifications and rational curves with cyclic action
Authors: Clader Emily , Damiolini Chiara , Li Shiyue , Ramadas Rohini 
Published: April 2023

Abstract
We prove that the moduli space of rational curves with cyclic action, constructed in our previous work, is realizable as a wonderful compactification of the complement of a hyperplane arrangement in a product of projective spaces. By proving a general result on such wonderful compactifications, we conclude that this moduli space is Chow-equivalent to an explicit toric variety (whose fan can be understood as a tropical version of the moduli space), from which a computation of its Chow ring follows.
Peer Interactions of School-Aged Girls on the Autism Spectrum: A Scoping Review
Authors: Tso Michelle , Strnadová Iva , Danker Joanne , O’Neill Sue 
Published: April 2023

AbstractAlthough research on the experiences of females on the autism spectrum is still developing, it is becoming increasingly apparent that their experiences are not comparable to their male counterparts. This scoping review aimed to collate research related to the peer interaction experiences of school-aged girls on the autism spectrum from their perspective. A database and journal search (2010–2020) found 21 studies. Key findings indicated that although school-aged girls on the autism spectrum generally desired friendship, they faced diverse peer interaction difficulties, including making and maintaining friendships, peer victimisation, and rejection. Given these challenges, appropriate peer interaction supports and further research into the complexities of their peer interaction experience is needed.
STRUCTURAL PROPERTIES OF THE STABLE CORE
Authors: FRIEDMAN SY-DAVID , GITMAN VICTORIA , MÜLLER SANDRA 
Published: April 2023

AbstractThe stable core, an inner model of the form
$\langle L[S],\in , S\rangle $
for a simply definable predicate S, was introduced by the first author in [8], where he showed that V is a class forcing extension of its stable core. We study the structural properties of the stable core and its interactions with large cardinals. We show that the
$\operatorname {GCH} $
can fail at all regular cardinals in the stable core, that the stable core can have a discrete proper class of measurable cardinals, but that measurable cardinals need not be downward absolute to the stable core. Moreover, we show that, if large cardinals exist in V, then the stable core has inner models with a proper class of measurable limits of measurables, with a proper class of measurable limits of measurable limits of measurables, and so forth. We show this by providing a characterization of natural inner models
$L[C_1, \dots , C_n]$
for specially nested class clubs
$C_1, \dots , C_n$
, like those arising in the stable core, generalizing recent results of Welch [29].

AbstractWe present a new high-resolution neutral atomic hydrogen (Hi) survey of ring galaxies using the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA). We target a sample of 24 ring galaxies from the Buta (1995) Southern Ring Galaxy Survey Catalogue in order to study the origin of resonance-, collisional- and interaction-driven ring galaxies. In this work, we present an overview of the sample and study their global and resolved Hiproperties. In addition, we also probe their star formation properties by measuring their star formation rates (SFR) and their resolved SFR surface density profiles. We find that a majority of the barred galaxies in our sample are Hi-deficient, alluding to the effects of the bar in driving their Hideficiency. Furthermore, for the secularly evolving barred ring galaxies in our sample, we apply Lindblad’s resonance theory to predict the location of the resonance rings and find very good agreement between predictions and observations. We identify rings of Higas and/or star formation co-located at one or the other major resonances. Lastly, we measure the bar pattern speed ($\Omega_{\textrm{bar}}$) for a sub-sample of our galaxies and find that the values range from 10–90$\textrm{km s}^{-1}$kpc$^{-1}$, in good agreement with previous studies.
Showcasing the international atom: theIAEA Bulletinas a visual science diplomacy instrument, 1958–1962
Authors: Adamson Matthew 
Published: April 2023

AbstractWhen the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) began operations in 1958, one of its first routine tasks was to create and circulate a brief non-technical periodical. This article analyses the creation of theIAEA Bulletinand its circulation during its first years. It finds that diplomatic imperatives both in IAEA leadership circles and in the networks outside them shaped the form and appearance of the bulletin. In the hands of the IAEA's Division of Public Information, the bulletin became an instrument of science diplomacy, its imagery conveying the motivations for member states to strengthen ties with the IAEA, while simultaneously persuading them to accept the hierarchies and geopolitical logics implicit in those relations, as well as to endorse the central position of the IAEA as a clearing house and authority of globally circulating nuclear objects and information.

AbstractThe objective was to evaluate the association between serum carotenoid levels and respiratory morbidity and mortality in a nationally representative sample of US adults. We assessed the association of serum carotenoid levels with respiratory morbidity and mortality using logistic regression and proportional hazards regression models. Meanwhile, a series of confounders were controlled in regression models and restricted cubic spline, which included age, sex, race, marriage, education, income, drinking, smoking, regular exercise, BMI, daily energy intake, vitamin E, vitamin C, fruit intake, vegetable intake, diabetes, hypertension, asthma, emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Compared with participants in the lowest tertiles, participants in the highest tertiles of serum total carotenoids, β-cryptoxanthin and lutein/zeaxanthin levels had a significantly lower prevalence of emphysema (ORtotal carotenoids = 0·61, 95% CI: 0·41–0·89, ORβ-cryptoxanthin = 0·67, 95% CI: 0·49–0·92), chronic bronchitis (ORβ-cryptoxanthin = 0·66, 95% CI: 0·50–0·87) and asthma (Q2: ORlutein/zeaxanthin = 0·78, 95% CI: 0·62–0·97); participants in the highest tertiles of total carotenoids, α-carotene, lutein/zeaxanthin and lycopene had a lower risk of respiratory mortality (hazard ratio (HR)total carotenoids = 0·62, 95% CI: 0·42–0·90, HRα-carotene = 0·54, 95% CI: 0·36–0·82, HRlutein/zeaxanthin = 0·48, 95% CI: 0·33–0·71, HRlycopene = 0·66, 95% CI: 0·45–0·96) than those in the lowest tertiles. Higher serum total carotenoids and β-cryptoxanthin levels is associated with decreased prevalence of emphysema and chronic bronchitis, and higher serum total carotenoids, α-carotene, lutein/zeaxanthin and lycopene levels had a lower mortality of respiratory disease.
Can Capital Adjustment Costs Explain the Decline in Investment–Cash Flow Sensitivity?
Authors: Liao Shushu , Nolte Ingmar , Pawlina Grzegorz 
Published: April 2023

AbstractIt is well documented that since at least the 1970s investment-cash flow (I-CF) sensitivity has been decreasing over time to disappear almost completely by the late 2000s. Based on a neoclassical investment model with costly external financing, we show that this pattern can be explained by the gradual increase of capital adjustment costs, attributable to the accumulation of knowledge capital. The result is robust to a variety of approaches, including Euler equation estimation and the simulated method of moments. More generally, our findings demonstrate that I-CF sensitivity should only be interpreted as a joint measure of financial andrealfrictions.
ETF Ownership and Seasoned Equity Offerings
Authors: Evans Kevin P. , Leung Woon Sau , Li Junqiu , Mazouz Khelifa 
Published: April 2023

AbstractThis article investigates the impact of exchange-traded fund (ETF) ownership on seasoned equity offerings (SEOs). We find that increases to firms’ ETF ownership is positively related to their propensity to conduct an SEO. ETF ownership is also associated with less negative SEO announcement returns, smaller discounts, and better long-run stock returns. Our evidence is consistent with equity issuance following investor demand for stocks driven by greater participation in ETFs, suggesting a possible alternative source of market timing opportunity.
Interpretational issues with the bifactor model: a commentary on ‘Defining the p-Factor: An Empirical Test of Five Leading Theories’ by Southward, Cheavens, and Coccaro
Authors: Dolan Conor V. , Borsboom Denny 
Published: April 2023

AbstractSouthward, Cheavens, and Coccaro (2022, Psychological Medicine) conducted an ambitious investigation aimed at determining the nature of the general p factor of psychopathology by considering the correlation between the p factor and five candidate constructs. Generally, in this area of research, the bifactor model is preferred to the second order common factor model. In this commentary, we identify several interpretational issues concerning the bifactor model, which are based on a realistic psychometric view of latent variables. These issues may hamper the study of the nature of p factor model using the bifactor model.
Based on human-like variable admittance control for human–robot collaborative motion
Authors: Wang Chengyun , Zhao Jing 
Published: April 2023

AbstractAdmittance control of the robot is an important method to improve human–robot collaborative performance. However, it displays poor matching between admittance parameters and human–robot collaborative motion. This results in poor motion performance when the robot interacts with the changeable environment (human). Therefore, to improve the performance of human–robot collaboration, the human-like variable admittance parameter regulator (HVAPR) based on the change rate of interaction force is proposed by studying the human arm’s static and dynamic admittance parameters in human–human collaborative motion. HVAPR can generate admittance parameters matching with human collaborative motion. To test the performance of the proposed HVAPR, the human–robot collaborative motion experiment based on HVAPR is designed and compared with the variable admittance parameter regulator (VAPR). The satisfaction, recognition ratio, and recognition confidence of the two admittance parameter regulators are statistically analyzed via questionnaire. Simultaneously, the trajectory and interaction force of the robot are analyzed, and the performance of the human–robot collaborative motion is assessed and compared using the trajectory smoothness index and average energy index. The results show that HVAPR is superior to VAPR in human–robot collaborative satisfaction, robot trajectory smoothness, and average energy consumption.

AbstractBackground:Long-term data on COVID-19 vaccine safety, immunogenicity, and acceptance in adults with CHD are lacking.Methods:This is a prospective study including adults with CHD patients undergoing COVID-19 vaccination from January 2021 to June 2022. Data on adverse events, antispike IgG titre, previous or subsequent COVID-19 infection, booster doses, and patients’ attitude towards vaccination were collected.Results:Four hundred and ninety CHD patients (36 ± 13 years, 53% male, 94% with moderate/complex defects) were prospectively included: 433 (88%) received a Pfizer–BioNTech mRNA vaccine, 31 (6%) Moderna mRNA vaccine, 23 (5%) AstraZeneca–Oxford ChAdOx1 nCov-19 vaccine, and 3 (0.6%) Janssen Vaccine; 310 (63%) received a booster dose. Median follow-up after vaccination was 1.53 [1.41–1.58] years. No major adverse event was reported. Eighty-two fully vaccinated patients contracted COVID-19 during follow-up after a median of 5.4 [4.3–6.5] months from the last dose. One patient with Ebstein’s disease died from severe COVID-19. Symptoms’ duration in patients who tested positive after vaccination was significantly shorter than in the group tested positive before vaccination (5.5 [3–8] versus 9 [2.2–15] days, p = 0.04). Median antispike IgG titre measured in 280 individuals (57%) at a median of 1.4 [0.7–3.3] months from the last dose was 2381 [901–8307] BAU/ml. Sixty patients (12%) also showed positive antinucleocapsid antibodies, demonstrating previous SARS-COV2 exposure. Twenty-nine percent appeared to have concerns regarding vaccine safety and 42% reported fearing potential effects of the vaccine on their cardiac disease before discussing with their CHD cardiologist.Conclusion:COVID-19 vaccines appear safe in the mid-term follow-up in adults with CHD with satisfactory immunogenicity and reduction of symptoms’ duration in case of infection.

Militarization and privatization of security: From the War on Drugs to the fight against organized crime in Latin America
Authors: Perret Antoine 
Published: April 2023

AbstractFifty-two years ago, in 1971, President Nixon declared the “War on Drugs”, identifying drug abuse as a public enemy in the United States. Since then, US drug policy has been militarized and, more recently, privatized. Every year, the US government increasingly contracts private military and security companies to provide intelligence, logistical support and training to armed forces in drug-producing or drug-transit States. In Latin America, this militarization and privatization has increased the intensity of violence and has complexified domestic situations, to the extent that the existing international legal regimes now seem inappropriate to respond to the challenges posed by the War on Drugs. On the one hand, human rights law does not adequately address situations where the State faces organized crime groups that are able to control territory. On the other hand, international humanitarian law (IHL) was not created to address law enforcement situations, which the War on Drugs and the fight against organized crime ostensibly are.This article examines the situation in Latin America, looking at examples of different types of situations through the lens of intensity and organization of the group involved and, in some cases, the group's control over territory. It discusses the application of IHL and human rights law (focusing on the inter-American system of human rights) in these situations and their complementarity, and debates how these bodies of law are adapting or may need to be adapted.
A wearable real-time kinetic measurement sensor setup for human locomotion
Authors: Wang Huawei , Basu Akash , Durandau Guillaume , Sartori Massimo 
Published: April 2023

AbstractCurrent laboratory-based setups (optical marker cameras + force plates) for human motion measurement require participants to stay in a constrained capture region which forbids rich movement types. This study established a fully wearable system, based on commercially available sensors (inertial measurement units + pressure insoles), that can measure both kinematic and kinetic motion data simultaneously and support wireless frame-by-frame streaming. In addition, its capability and accuracy were tested against a conventional laboratory-based setup. An experiment was conducted, with 9 participants wearing the wearable measurement system and performing 13 daily motion activities, from slow walking to fast running, together with vertical jump, squat, lunge, and single-leg landing, inside the capture space of the laboratory-based motion capture system. The recorded sensor data were post-processed to obtain joint angles, ground reaction forces (GRFs), and joint torques (via multi-body inverse dynamics). Compared to the laboratory-based system, the established wearable measurement system can measure accurate information of all lower limb joint angles (Pearson’sr = 0.929), vertical GRFs (Pearson’sr = 0.954), and ankle joint torques (Pearson’sr = 0.917). Center of pressure (CoP) in the anterior–posterior direction and knee joint torques were fairly matched (Pearson’sr = 0.683 and 0.612, respectively). Calculated hip joint torques and measured medial–lateral CoP did not match with the laboratory-based system (Pearson’sr = 0.21 and 0.47, respectively). Furthermore, both raw and processed datasets are openly accessible (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.6457662). Documentation, data processing codes, and guidelines to establish the real-time wearable kinetic measurement system are also shared (https://github.com/HuaweiWang/WearableMeasurementSystem).
Long‐Term Variation of Dust Devils in East Asia During 1959–2021

Published: April 2023

AbstractDust devils play an important role in dust transport by carrying it from the surface into the atmosphere, especially in summer. However, information on how dust devils changed in the past decades and what caused these changes remains lacking. Based on thermodynamic criteria and ERA5 reanalysis data set, this study investigated the long‐term variation of favorable conditions for dust devil occurrence in East Asia over the past 63 years and defined it as potential dust devil and dusty plume (PDDP) occurrence in hours. Annual mean frequency of PDDP in East Asia was approximately 217.2 hr from 1959 to 2021. An overall downward trend in PDDP frequency has been found over 63 years in East Asia among which strong PDDPs drop significantly at the fastest rate while the weak ones dropped insignificantly. Moreover, PDDP frequency in the Gobi Desert increased but they decreased in the Taklimakan Desert. The monthly variation of PDDP shows a single‐peak structure with a tendency for the peak to move from June to July. For the diurnal changes, PDDP mainly occurred between 10:00 and 16:00 at local time (LT), with over 60% of them happening between 12:00 LT and 14:00 LT. We also found a negative correlation between precipitation and PDDP occurrence. This study provides a comprehensive understanding of favorable conditions for dust devil occurrence in East Asia over the past decades, which is of great importance to further evaluate its impact on climate, environment as well as ecosystem.
