Authors: Wongchadakul Patcharaporn , Lohasammakul Suphalerk , Rattanadecho Phadungsak , Chu-Ongsakul Sorawuth 
Published: July 2023

Purpose
This study contributes to the multidisciplinary understanding of septal L-strut reshaping and introduces innovative surgical design concepts based on engineering principles of static equilibrium. The objective is to enhance structural strength and stability, ultimately leading to improved surgical outcomes.

Method
Finite element analysis is employed to model the three-dimensional septal cartilage in septoplasty. A significant contribution of this work is the introduction of an innovative redesigns for the septal L-strut structure. These redesigns represent the first-ever attempt to incorporate the center of gravity theory into the modeling of the septal L-strut.

Results
Our findings emphasize the significance of attaining a lower center of gravity in the design of the septal L-strut, as it contributes to optimal core strength and stability. To achieve this, we recommend widening the caudal septum and shaping the interior fillet corner to its maximum size, taking into account its specific shape. Notably, the utilization of a standard 20x20 mm septal L-strut, the C-shaped technique, and the septal support graft technique provide superior strength due to enhanced basement support.

Conclusion
To enhance surgical outcomes in septal L-strut procedures, design modifications are proposed to improve strength and stability, resulting in optimized performance. Recommendations include widening the caudal septum and incorporating fillet shapes in the geometry to lower the center of gravity.

Published: July 2023

Abstract
The spread of Covid-19 has reduced human intervention in aquatic ecosystems, which has shown a discernible improvement in air and water quality. Ganges River, being a historical, economic and cultural icon of India providing multiple ecosystem services as industrial, provisioning, regulatory and cultural services, constitutes an important habitat for Gangetic Dolphin (Platanista gangetica). The surfacing of dolphins in Ganga river is patchy and unpredictable. The present study unravels 25 different chemical, microbiological, biological and meta-genomics of most abundant bacteria at dolphin surfacing sites in Ganges water during October 2017 February 2018 and January 2021 to elicit the impact of Covid-19 lock down at the Garhmukteshwar (28.7601°N, 78.1437°E) stretch in Hapur district of Uttar Pradesh, India. The most abundant bacteria at dolphin surfacing site was Bacillus subtilis in February 2018 which was replaced by Aeromonas sp. in January 2021. The zooplankton community was dominated by rotifers during pre-Covid period however the dominance pattern recorded a shift towards larger herbivorous crustacean species during Covid −19 lock down. Overall bacterial count decreased whereas Chl a level increased during the lock down. The total zooplankton abundance did not show a significant difference, but relative proportion of larger herbivorous crustacean zooplankton increased in January 2021 samples. The present results convincingly establish effects of shutdown on chemical, metagenomics and biological components of the riparian ecosystem and the information of micro to mesoplanktonic community may be useful for characterizing dolphin surfacing sites, enhancing existing water quality monitoring efforts and also for human epidemiological studies associated with recreational use of Ganga water.

Abstract
Minimally invasive in situ bioprinting can potentially enhance the advantages of bioprinting, allowing the surrounding healthy tissue to be maximally preserved. However, the requirements for such a device are manifold and challenging to fulfill. We present an experimental bioprinting platform consisting of an extrusion system based on a tube mounted between an extrusion syringe and a dispensing nozzle. We investigated the influence of material transfer through a tube on the printing outcome. The results showed that it is feasible to form a continuous filament and print 3-dimensional structures using the developed platform.
Continuum robot actuation by a single motor per antagonistic tendon pair: workspace and repeatability analysis
Authors: Marzi Christian , Buck Felix , Mathis-Ullrich Franziska 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
Continuum robots for application in medicine are of high interest in recent research. However, as most systems in literature show complex and large actuator units, setting up such a system can be time consuming, costly and results in a bulky system, unsuitable for the spatial requirements given in surgical scenarios. In this work, a compact, efficient continuum robotic system is presented. A pair of two antagonistic tendons is controlled by a single servo motor instead of single tendon actuation. This way, the actuator footprint is maintained at a minimum size and the method results in a simpler setup. The resulting 260 mm long robot with 9.9 mm diameter achieves a repeatability with an error of maximum 1.8 % of its length. In future work, this work serves as a basis for integration of various sensing modalities in continuum robots and evaluation of control algorithms.

Abstract
Reactive powder concrete (RPC) is one of the most recent and significant advancements in the world of building. Due to its higher concrete characteristics, it has a common excessive benevolence happening in the globe at the moment, excessive ductility, shrinkage resistance, and corrosion and abrasion resistance. Investigated is the method for amending the RPC experimentally in punching shear slab action and the properties of construction material to investigate properties of volumetric ratios of steel fiber, and silicas fume, tensile steel ratio, the most important component for construction is reinforced concrete, which works well with other materials to create structures in any shape that is needed. In the present research, investigational work of RC slab with (1,000 × 1,000 × 60) mm dimensions was tested. This study aims to see how the relative volume of steel fibers (Vf) and silica fume content (Sf) affect the actions of RC slabs after being exposed to fire. It originated that a concrete mix containing 2% steel fibers improved the RPC slab's cracking and final punching shear. The existence of reactive powder increases fire resistance. This study's experiment aimed to see how reactive powder and Slab's ultimate punching shear strength were affected by replacement ratio. Whenever a fire is present. After fire exposure, the initial and subsequent stiffness of reinforced concrete slabs reduced considerably the temperature grew from 25 to 750°C.
Numerical and experimental analysis of the heat transfer process in a railway disc brake tested on a dynamometer stand
Authors: Wolff Andrzej , Kukulski Jacek 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
The effectiveness of railway brakes is highly dependent on the thermal condition of the brake disc and friction linings. An effective research method for the heat transfer process in brakes was computer simulation and experimental tests on a full-size dynamometric test bench. A two-dimensional, axially symmetric numerical model of transient thermal conductivity in a railway brake was presented. Appropriate boundary conditions of the problem were applied, describing the heat generated in the brake and discharged to the environment. The problem was solved using the finite-element method. This article presents exemplary results of the brake temperature calculations obtained using the numerical model and the results of experimental tests carried out on two types of brake discs.
Teaching Tale Types to a Computer: A First Experiment with the Annotated Folktales Collection
Authors: Eklund Johan , Hagedorn Josh , Darányi Sándor 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
Computational motif detection in folk narratives is an unresolved problem, partly because motifs are formally fluid, and because test collections to teach machine learning algorithms are not generally available or big enough to yield robust predictions for expert confirmation. As a result, standard tale typology based on texts as motif strings renders its computational reproduction an automatic classification exercise. In this brief communication, to report work in progress we use the Support Vector Machine algorithm on the ten best populated classes of the Annotated Folktales test collection, to predict text membership in their internationally accepted categories. The classification result was evaluated using recall, precision, and F1 scores. The F1 score was in the range 0.8–1.0 for all the selected tale types except for type 275 (The Race between Two Animals), which, although its recall rate was 1.0, suffered from a low precision.

Case report: mitochondrial diabetes mellitus in a Chinese family due to m.3243A>G
Authors: Bai Wei , Zhang Qian , Fan Yanbin , Han Tianyan , Gu Nan , Zhang Yao , Liang Furong , Ma Yinan , Xiong Hui 
Published: July 2023

Abstract

Objectives
Mitochondrial diabetes mellitus is caused by dysfunctional mitochondria and is often misdiagnosed because of its various clinical manifestations. It’s even rarer in children, and without a clear family history of diabetes with hearing loss, it’s often difficult to diagnose.

Case presentation
This is a case study of a family with maternally inherited diabetes mellitus and deafness (MIDD). The proband was an adolescent girl with diabetes with a family history of type 2 diabetes (T2DM) for three generations. Family members have undetected hearing impaired. The proband could not be diagnosed with type 1 diabetes (T1DM) or T2DM. Therefore, whole exome and mitochondrial gene sequencing was performed, which identified an m.3243A>G mutation in the mitochondrial DNA.

Conclusions
This suggests that we should be alert to the possibility of hereditary diabetes, especially mitochondrial diabetes in patients with atypical diabetes. A thorough physical examination is very important. What is new: (1) Mitochondrial diabetes in childhood may not be accompanied by deafness even with highly heteroplasmy levels. (2) In MIDD patients, sometimes hearing loss cannot be perceived, which requires us to conduct detailed physical examinations and related examinations. (3) The use of metformin in MIDD patients did not have adverse consequences.
Briggs v. Southwestern Energy Production: Hydraulic Fracturing and Subsurface Trespass
Authors: Merrill Thomas W. , Smith Henry E. 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
The tort of trespass to land has proven to be controversial as applied to airplane overflights (and more recently to drones) as well as to oil and gas production using hydraulic fracking technology. The key to applying trespass to intrusions above and below the surface of land is to distinguish between possession of land and the right to possess land. Surface owners have the right to possess the column of space above and below the surface (a kind of option value), but only to the extent that this space is subject to possible effective possession. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court in Briggs v. Southwestern Energy Production concluded that fracking can result in physical intrusions that can be detected using available monitoring technology. The court further concluded that such physical intrusions should be subject to trespass liability. We argue that these conclusions are correct insofar as such intrusions interfere with a surface owner’s possible effective possession – the action of the intruder necessarily means that the surface owner could also find it economically advantageous to engage in production activity in this portion of subsurface space itself. The decision confirms the utility of the law of trespass to the architecture of property, in that it establishes an indispensable baseline against which exchanges of rights and regulatory modifications of rights can occur.

Parasitic gap patterns and hierarchy preservation in German
Authors: Gould Isaac 
Published: July 2023

AbstractThis paper discusses how German parasitic gap data from various earlier publications illustrate two patterns of systematic grammatical variation in the language, which have not been previously identified as such in the literature. I show how Heck and Himmelreich’s (Heck, Fabian & Anke Himmelreich. 2017. Opaque intervention.Linguistic Inquiry48. 47–97) analysis for one pattern, although not able to currently capture both patterns, can be extended by allowing for variation in the positions targeted by scrambling along with the phrase markers that constitute domains for linearization. The resulting unifying analysis highlights how different grammatical mechanisms can in various ways (both local and global) have the effect of preserving the hierarchical relations involved in multiple movement dependencies.
Lexical coherence in contemporary Italian: a lectometric analysis
Authors: De Pascale Stefano , Marzo Stefania 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
This paper explores the theoretical question of linguistic coherence by investigating lexical variation in contemporary Italian. In order to tackle issues regarding the coherence of lexical choice, variation is investigated with methods from lexical lectometry, which approaches the structure of language varieties (i.e. lects) by studying aggregate-level lexical distances between them. Based on uniformity measures, as introduced by Geeraerts et al. (1999), we have calculated the internal and external uniformity of spoken and written traditional standard Italian (represented by the academic section of the CORIS corpus for written Italian and the formal parts of the KIP corpus for spoken Italian) and neo-standard Italian (represented by the ParlaTO corpus for spoken Italian and the newspaper section of the CORIS corpus). The results confirm the hypothesis that two standard norms coexist in contemporary Italian and that traditional standard Italian appears to be more coherent at the lexical level than neo-standard Italian. Yet the study also indicates that other forms of coherence exist in contemporary Italian, depending on the adopted theoretical and methodological framework.

AbstractEndocrine therapies targeting estrogen signaling, such as tamoxifen, have significantly improved management of estrogen receptor alpha (ERα)‐positive breast cancers. However, their efficacy is limited by intrinsic and acquired resistance to treatment, and there is currently no predictive marker of response to these anti‐estrogens to guide treatment decision. Here, using two independent cohorts of breast cancer patients, we identified nuclear PRMT5 expression as an independent predictive marker of sensitivity to tamoxifen. Mechanistically, we discovered that tamoxifen stimulates ERα methylation by PRMT5, a key event for its binding to corepressors such as SMRT and HDAC1, participating in the inhibition of the transcriptional activity of ERα. Although PRMT5 is mainly localized in the cytoplasm of tumor cells, our analyses show that tamoxifen triggers its nuclear translocation in tamoxifen‐sensitive tumors but not in resistant ones. Hence, we unveil a biomarker of sensitivity to tamoxifen in ERα‐positive breast tumors that could be used to enhance the response of breast cancer patients to endocrine therapy, by fostering its nuclear expression.
Nuevas formas de religiosidad y reelaboraciones identitarias en migración: el caso de la comunidad murid en España
Authors: Cerrolaza Molina Érika 
Published: July 2023

La desterritorialización de los movimientos religiosos provocada por la migración marca la dislocación del tejido social constitutivo de los mismos y, con ello, la transformación de ciertas prácticas y discursos religiosos. Este artículo propone una reflexión sobre las transformaciones de la práctica religiosa que implica la transnacionalización del hecho religioso a partir de un estudio de caso sobre la tariqa murid, una cofradía sufí de origen senegalés, en España. Se esboza un análisis de varios elementos de la religiosidad murid en relación con la práctica religiosa y los principios normativos que la sustentan y su reelaboración en el contexto migratorio.

OBJECTIVES
This study investigated IQ scores in pediatric concussion (ie, mild traumatic brain injury) versus orthopedic injury.

METHODS
Children (N = 866; aged 8–16.99 years) were recruited for 2 prospective cohort studies from emergency departments at children’s hospitals (2 sites in the United States and 5 in Canada) ≤48 hours after sustaining a concussion or orthopedic injury. They completed IQ and performance validity testing postacutely (3–18 days postinjury; United States) or 3 months postinjury (Canada). Group differences in IQ scores were examined using 3 complementary statistical approaches (linear modeling, Bayesian, and multigroup factor analysis) in children performing above cutoffs on validity testing.

RESULTS
Linear models showed small group differences in full-scale IQ (d [95% confidence interval] = 0.13 [0.00–0.26]) and matrix reasoning (0.16 [0.03–0.30]), but not in vocabulary scores. IQ scores were not related to previous concussion, acute clinical features, injury mechanism, a validated clinical risk score, pre- or postinjury symptom ratings, litigation, or symptomatic status at 1 month postinjury. Bayesian models provided moderate to very strong evidence against group differences in IQ scores (Bayes factor 0.02–0.23). Multigroup factor analysis further demonstrated strict measurement invariance, indicating group equivalence in factor structure of the IQ test and latent variable means.

CONCLUSIONS
Across multisite, prospective study cohorts, 3 complementary statistical models provided no evidence of clinically meaningful differences in IQ scores after pediatric concussion. Instead, overall results provided strong evidence against reduced intelligence in the first few weeks to months after pediatric concussion.

Published: July 2023

AbstractNocardiosis is a rare disease affecting both immunocompromised and immunocompetent hosts, presented in various clinical forms ranging from localized to disseminated infection. Aim of the present study was to investigate the clinical and microbiological characteristics of nocardiosis, antimicrobial resistance profiles, treatment, and outcomes of Nocardia infection over the last 5 years at our institution. The medical records and microbiological data of patients affected by nocardiosis and treated at the university hospital of Heraklion, Crete, Greece, between 2018 and 2022, were retrospectively analyzed. The isolates were identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and through sequencing of 16S rRNA. Antimicrobial susceptibility for 17 agents was determined by E-test and results were interpreted according to CLSI guidelines. Among the 28 Nocardia isolates, eight species were identified, with Nocardia brasiliensis being the most prevalent (32.1%), followed by Nocardia otitidiscaviarum (25%), and Nocardia farcinica (14.3%). Skin and soft tissue infections were the most common presentations, noted in 13 (50%) patients, followed by pulmonary infection presented in 10 (38.5%) patients. Fifteen patients (57.7%) had at least one underlying disease, and 11 (42.3%) were on immunosuppressive or long-term corticosteroid treatment. Susceptibility rates of linezolid, tigecycline, amikacin, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, moxifloxacin, and imipenem were 100, 100, 96.4, 92.9, 82.1, and 42.9%, respectively. The 26 patients in this study were treated with various antibiotics. Mortality rate was 3.8%, and the patient who died had disseminated infection. Since epidemiology and antimicrobial susceptibility are evolving, continuous surveillance is mandatory in order to initiate appropriate treatment in a timely manner.
