Published: March 2023

Background: Impulsivity is a multifaceted construct that plays a prominent role in substance use disorder (SUD). The UPPS-P model distinguishes five impulsivity components (positive urgency, negative urgency, lack of perseverance, lack of premeditation, and sensation seeking). This study aimed to explore the structure of the UPPS-P in patients hospitalized for SUDs and to investigate the relationship between the dimensions of impulsivity and clinical variables. Method: Inpatients of a residential detoxification service ( n = 125) were recruited. A confirmatory factor analysis was performed, and associations were assessed between the components of impulsivity and clinical indexes. Results: The factor analysis supported a model of impulsivity with five interrelated latent variables. Good internal consistency was found. External validity was supported by relationships with psychological difficulties. Multiple correlations (Kendall) suggested that, except for its sensation-seeking component, impulsivity is a significant risk factor for both the severity of addictive problems and their comorbidities. Conclusion: This study provides further evidence in favor of the 5-dimensional model of impulsivity. It highlights impulsivity as a transdiagnostic risk factor that should be considered in the management of SUD.

Published: March 2023

Background: Hamstring tendon grafts are the most common choice for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (ACLR). Previous studies have provided evidence that offers conflicting opinions concerning the most favorable graft choice. Purpose: To identify whether the use of a quadrupled semitendinosus tendon (ST) or doubled semitendinosus tendon and gracilis tendon (ST/G) graft provides comparable anterior tibial translation (ATT) with similar functional results and similar donor site morbidity. Study Design: Randomized controlled trial; Level of evidence, 1. Methods: This was a prospective, patient- and surgeon-blinded, randomized trial set in a busy orthopaedic and traumatology department at a university hospital. Between 2015 and 2017, a total of 162 patients with ACL lesions were randomized to undergo ACLR with either a quadrupled ST or doubled ST/G graft. The primary endpoint was ATT assessed with the KT-1000 arthrometer. Clinical outcomes were assessed using the patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) of the visual analog scale (VAS), International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) subjective evaluation form, Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS), Tegner activity scale, and Lysholm knee scoring scale. Results: Preoperative demographic data, ATT, and PROM scores showed no significant differences. At 4.5 years, no significant differences were found between the ST and ST/G groups with respect to PROM scores and KT-1000 arthrometer, Lachman test, and pivot-shift test findings. Differences in functional results between groups were significant (muscle strength). Subgroup analysis revealed significantly increased ATT in female patients undergoing ACLR with a quadrupled ST graft during the 4.5-year observation period, as assessed by the KT-1000 arthrometer, as well as inferior KOOS, IKDC, Lysholm, and VAS scores. Conclusion: This study showed a significant increase in ATT as well as inferior results on PROMs during a 4.5-year observation period in female patients undergoing ACLR with a quadrupled ST graft. In male patients, the study provided evidence of the noninferiority of ACLR with an ST graft, with no influence on donor site morbidity. Trial Registration: clinicaltrials.gov: NCT03626883
Cost-effectiveness analysis of adding durvalumab to chemotherapy as first-line treatment for advanced biliary tract cancer based on the TOPAZ-1 trial

Published: March 2023

Abstract
Background
Durvalumab plus gemcitabine and cisplatin has a significant clinical benefit for advanced biliary tract cancer (BTC). However, the high price of durvalumab warrants an exploration of the economics.

Objective
To investigate the cost-effectiveness of adding durvalumab to gemcitabine and cisplatin compared with gemcitabine and cisplatin in first-line therapy of advanced BTC from the perspective of the Chinese healthcare system.

Methods
According to the TOPAZ-1 trial, a three-state Markov model was built by the TreeAge Pro 2022 software. The total costs and quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) were estimated, and the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) was used as the evaluation index. The triple 2021 Chinese per capita gross domestic product (GDP) of $37,663.26/QALY was used as the willingness-to-pay (WTP) threshold. Outputs were analyzed for two scenarios with and without a durvalumab drug charity assistance policy. In the scenario analysis, the base-case model was run multiple times with different prices of durvalumab to determine the effect on the ICER. Moreover, the robustness of the model was tested through sensitivity analyses.

Results
Compared with chemotherapy alone, durvalumab plus chemotherapy resulted in an additional 0.12 QALY and an incremental cost of $18,555.19, the ICER was $159,644.70/QALY under the situation of charity assistance, and the ICER was $696,571.11/QALY without charity assistance, both exceeding the WTP threshold in China. The scenario analysis demonstrated that when the price of durvalumab fell by more than 94.2% to less than $0.33/mg, durvalumab plus chemotherapy will be more economical compared with chemotherapy alone under the situation of no charity assistance. One-way sensitivity analyses suggested that the cost of durvalumab had the greatest influence on the ICERs, and the probabilistic sensitivity analyses demonstrated that durvalumab plus chemotherapy was impossible to be cost-effective at the WTP threshold whether the charity assistance was available or not.

Conclusions
Adding durvalumab to gemcitabine and cisplatin was not cost-effective for advanced BTC regardless of receiving and not receiving charitable assistance.
‘Baby mamas’ in Urban Ghana: an exploratory qualitative study on the factors influencing serial fathering among men in Accra, Ghana
Authors: Hiadzi Rosemond Akpene , Agyeman Jemima Akweley , Akrong Godwin Banafo 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
Background
Biological fathering, especially in patrilineal societies, was traditionally acceptable only in the context of marriage to the mother of the child. Many men were polygynous, often staying in one household with all their wives and children. However, this phenomenon has been on the decline in recent times, mainly due to Christianity, which encourages monogamy while frowning on polygyny. The Ghanaian family has for the past few years been undergoing changes due to migration, urbanization, and industrialization. With an increase in non-marital births and the dissolution of marital unions, multi-partner fertility is likely to increase. Contemporary Ghanaian perspectives on the circumstances that lead men to engage in paternal multi-partner fertility, otherwise referred to in this study as serial fathering, are scanty, hence this study examines the factors that lead to serial fathering among Ghanaian men.

Methods
The study employed the qualitative method, using in-depth interviews with twenty (20) serial fathers and a focus group discussion with seven (7) women.

Results
It was found that factors such as the attitude of women in relationships, the duolocal post-marital residential pattern, and the age at first birth are some of the reasons why some men father children with multiple partners.

Conclusion
The study concludes that both situational and personal factors account for the phenomenon of serial fathering amongst men in Prampram, Ghana, and these factors bring about distinctions in serial fathering as occurring either within or outside of marriage.
EA-GAN: restoration of text in ancient Chinese books based on an example attention generative adversarial network
Authors: Wenjun Zheng , Benpeng Su , Ruiqi Feng , Xihua Peng , Shanxiong Chen 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
Ancient Chinese books are of great significance to historical research and cultural inheritance. Unfortunately, many of these books have been damaged and corroded in the process of long-term transmission. The restoration by digital preservation of ancient books is a new method of conservation. Traditional character restoration methods ensure the visual consistency of character images through character features and the pixels around the damaged area. However, reconstructing characters often causes errors, especially when there is large damage in critical locations. Inspired by human’s imitation writing behavior, a two-branch structure character restoration network EA-GAN (Example Attention Generative Adversarial Network) is proposed, which is based on a generative adversarial network and fuses reference examples. By referring to the features of the example character, the damaged character can be restored accurately even when the damaged area is large. EA-GAN first uses two branches to extract the features of the damaged and example characters. Then, the damaged character is restored according to neighborhood information and features of the example character in different scales during the up-sampling stage. To solve problems when the example and damaged character features are not aligned and the convolution receptive field is too small, an Example Attention block is proposed to assist in restoration. Qualitative and quantitative analysis experiments are carried out on a self-built dataset MSACCSD and real scene pictures. Compared with current inpainting networks, EA-GAN can get the correct text structure through the guidance of the additional example in the Example Attention block. The peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) and the structural similarity (SSIM) value increased by 9.82% and 1.82% respectively. The learned perceptual image patch similarity (LPIPS) value calculated by Visual Geometry Group (VGG) network and AlexNet decreased by 35.04% and 16.36% respectively. Our method obtained better results than the current inpainting methods. It also has a good restoration effect in the face of untrained characters, which is helpful for the digital preservation of ancient Chinese books.
Women’s ability to negotiate safer sex with partners by contraceptive status among a nationally representative sample of married women in Nigeria
Authors: Solanke Bola Lukman , Kupoluyi Joseph Ayodeji , Awoleye Abayomi Folorunso , Adewole Olusola Esther , Babalola Oyeyemi Bukola 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
Background
Existing studies established that safer sex negotiation influences contraceptive use, and women who are able to negotiate safer sex were expected to be contraceptive users. However, it is not certain that all contraceptive users have the ability to negotiate safer sex. Likewise, there is no evidence that all non-users are not able to negotiate safer sex with partners. The study assesses the prevalence of women’s ability to negotiate safer sex and examines the determinants of women’s ability to negotiate safer sex among contraceptive users and non-users.

Methods
The comparative cross-sectional research design was adopted. Data were extracted from the 2018 Nigeria Demographic and Health Survey. The study analyzed a sample of 2,765 contraceptive users and 20,304 non-users. The outcome variable was women’s ability to negotiate safer sex with partners. The explanatory variables examined are eight socio-demographic characteristics (age, child marriage, education, parity, media exposure, religion, work status, and experience of female genital mutilation), six relational characteristics (healthcare autonomy, financial autonomy, household wealth quintile, partners’ education, ownership of assets, and type of marriage). Attitude to wife-beating, male controlling behavior, place of residence, and geo-political zone of residence were included as control variables. Multivariable regression models were estimated.

Results
Findings showed that 6.2% of women who were not able to negotiate safer sex were contraceptive users, while 15.9% of women who were able to negotiate safer sex were contraceptive users. Among non-users, the significant determinants were child marriage, education, parity, mass media exposure, religion, work status, healthcare autonomy, financial autonomy, household wealth, partner education, type of marriage, geo-political zone, attitude to wife-beating, and male controlling behavior. Regarding contraceptive users, the significant determinants were parity, religion, the experience of female genital mutilation, financial autonomy, partner education, type of marriage, and the geo-political zone of residence.

Conclusion
The ability to negotiate safer sex differs among contraceptive users and non-users. Also, the determinants of the ability to negotiate safer sex differ among contraceptive users and non-users. While existing strategies may continue to focus on women not using contraceptives, new strategies promoting reproductive autonomy are required among contraceptive users.
The long-term impact of coronavirus disease 2019 on environmental health: a review study of the bi-directional effect
Authors: Chakraborty Prasenjit , Kumar Randhir , Karn Sanjay , Srivastava Ankit Kumar , Mondal Priya 
Published: March 2023

Abstract
Background
When health systems worldwide grapple with the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, its effect on the global environment is also a significant consideration factor. It is a two-way process where the pre-COVID climate factors influenced the landscape in which the disease proliferates globally and the consequences of the pandemic on our surroundings. The environmental health disparities will also have a long-lasting effect on public health response.

Main body
The ongoing research on the novel coronavirus severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and COVID-19 must also include the role of environmental factors in the process of infection and the differential severity of the disease. Studies have shown that the virus has created positive and negative ramifications on the world environment, especially in countries most critically affected by the pandemic. Contingency measures to slow down the virus, such as self-distancing and lockdowns have shown improvements in air, water, and noise quality with a concomitant decrease in greenhouse gas emissions. On the other hand, biohazard waste management is a cause for concern that can result in negative effects on planetary health. At the peak of the infection, most attention has been diverted to the medical aspects of the pandemic. Gradually, policymakers must shift their focus to social and economic avenues, environmental development, and sustainability.

Conclusion
The COVID-19 pandemic has profoundly impacted the environment, both directly and indirectly. On the one hand, the sudden halt in economic and industrial activities led to a decrease in air and water pollution, as well as a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. On the other hand, the increased use of single-use plastics and a surge in e-commerce activities have had negative effects on the environment. As we move forward, we must consider the pandemic's long-term impacts on the environment and work toward a more sustainable future that balances economic growth and environmental protection. The study shall update the readers on the various facets of the interaction between this pandemic and environmental health with model development for long-term sustainability.

Anthropocene Narratives of Living with Resource Extraction in Africa
Authors: Peša Iva 
Published: March 2023

AbstractAfrican experiences have so far not been central to Anthropocene debates. While the Anthropocene usefully theorizes the planetary dimensions of environmental change, how do its propositions hold when applied to specific and widely divergent settings? Drawing from three examples—copper mining in Zambia, gold mining in South Africa, and oil drilling in Nigeria—this article examines varied experiences of environmental change in the Anthropocene. Resource extraction, which moves tons of earth and heavily pollutes the air and soils, epitomizes the Anthropocene. In order to grasp ways of living with extraction and its toxic legacies in African localities, it is necessary to consider situated histories of capitalism and colonialism and how these have generated intersectional positionalities, in terms of gender, socioeconomic status, and race. These histories inform actors’ abilities to envisage alternatives to the Anthropocene in the present and future. Inspired by decolonial frameworks, this article begins to chart more plural ways to write the Anthropocene.

Η κριτική της θεωρίας της πάλης των τάξεων από τον Κ. Παπαϊωάννου

Published: March 2023

Ο Κώστας Παπαϊωάννου αναπτύσσει την κριτική στη θεωρία των τάξεων του Μαρξ σε μια σειρά έργων του. Η πλέον τεκμηριωμένη και αναλυτική ερμηνεία του περιλαμβάνεται στο έργο του Μαρξ και μαρξισμός, αλλά και στη Γένεση του Ολοκληρωτισμού, όσο και στο Κράτος και φιλοσοφία – ο διάλογος Μαρξ-Χέγκελ. Η θεωρία της πάλης των τάξεων προβάλλεται από τη μαρξική σκέψη ως το κλειδί για να κατανοήσουμε την εξέλιξη της ιστορίας. Όμως, ο Μαρξ δεν είχε καταλήξει σε μια θεωρία αλλά σε τρείς τουλάχιστον, διαφορετικές μεταξύ τους. Η πρώτη περιέχεται στο Κομμουνιστικό Μανιφέστο, η δεύτερη στην Αθλιότητα της φιλοσοφίας και η τρίτη στα Grundrisse, ενώ, αν σταθούμε περισσότερο στο υπόλοιπο έργο του Μαρξ (όπως η 18η Μπρυμαίρ του Λουδοβίκου Βοναπάρτη, όπου η μικρή αγροτική ιδιοκτησία αναδεικνύεται ως η προϋπόθεση της κρατικής γραφειοκρατίας), είναι βέβαιο ότι θα ανακαλύψουμε αρκετές παραλλαγές τους. Βεβαίως, το σημαντικό διανοητικό επίτευγμα του Κ. Παπαϊωάννου, που αρτίωσε στο έργο αυτό, είναι η περιγραφή της δημιουργίας μιας νέας τάξης, της γραφειοκρατίας, από ένα εξω-οικονομικό στοιχείο· τον ολοκληρωτικό έλεγχο της κοινωνίας από το κράτος, του κράτους από το κόμμα και του κόμματος από μια περιορισμένη ομάδα. Στη διαδικασία αυτή σπουδαίο ρόλο έπαιξαν και στελέχη όπως ο Τρότσκι, που στη συνέχεια θα εξοβελιστούν, αφού, όμως, πρώτα θα στρατιωτικοποιήσουν την οικονομική ζωή και θα επιβάλουν παντού τη στρατιωτική πειθαρχία. Πλέον «η “νέα τάξη” που δημιουργήθηκε πάνω στη βάση της αποκλειστικής μονοπώλησης της πολιτικής εξουσίας, άρχισε να μεταμορφώνεται σε μια άρχουσα κοινωνική τάξη με την κλασική μαρξιστική έννοια του όρου».

Enforcement Waves and Spillovers
Authors: Choi Hae Mi , Karpoff Jonathan M. , Lou Xiaoxia , Martin Gerald S. 
Published: March 2023

We document that regulatory enforcement actions for financial misrepresentation cluster in industry-specific waves and that wave-related enforcement has information spillovers on industry peer firms. Waves and spillovers have significant effects on share prices. Early-wave target firms have the largest short-run losses in share values and the largest information spillovers on industry peer firms. Late-wave targets’ short-run losses are smaller, but not because they involve less costly instances of misconduct. Rather, late-wave targets are subject to more information spillovers from earlier in the wave. These results indicate that prices incorporate changes in the likelihood that a firm will face wave-related enforcement action for financial misconduct. Short-window share-price losses understate the total share-price impact, particularly for firms whose financial misrepresentation is revealed late in an enforcement wave. This paper was accepted by David Simchi-Levi, finance. Supplemental Material: The internet appendix and data are available at https://doi.org/10.1287/mnsc.2023.4711 .
