The Effect of Genetic Taste Status on Swallowing: A Literature Review
Authors: Lee Theresa S. , Dietsch Angela M. , Damra Rana H. , Mulheren Rachel W. 
Published: May 2023

Purpose:
Swallowing and taste share innervation pathways and are crucial to nutritive intake. Individuals vary in their perception of taste due to factors such as genetics; however, it is unclear to what extent genetic taste status influences swallowing physiology and function. The purpose of this review article is to provide background on genetic taste status, review the evidence on the association between genetic taste status and swallowing, and discuss research and clinical implications.

Method:
A comprehensive literature review was conducted using search terms related to swallowing and genetic taste status. Studies were included if they investigated the main effect of genetic taste status on swallowing or the interaction of genetic taste status with other variables. Studies were grouped by participant population (healthy participants or persons with a swallowing disorder), swallowing-related outcome measure, and method of genetic taste status measurement.

Results:
The results were mixed, with five of 10 reviewed studies reporting a statistically significant main or interaction effect on swallowing. Most studies included healthy participants, with only one study investigating participants with dysphagia. Additionally, swallowing-related outcome measures and methods of determining genetic taste status varied greatly between studies conducted on separate cohorts.

Conclusions:
Few studies have incorporated genetic taste status as a variable in swallowing research, and results are mixed. Future research on sensation and swallowing should consider the potential effect of genetic taste status and follow standardized procedures for its determination. Despite the limited evidence, clinicians may consider how individual differences in perception shape swallowing outcomes.

Published: May 2023

Purpose:Mindfulness is defined as intentional, present-moment, nonjudgmental awareness. Previous studies have proposed that mindfulness practice may benefit people who stutter. This study aimed to test the relationship between levels of dispositional mindfulness in people who stutter and the impact of stuttering and whether self-compassion and the metacognitive ability of shifting to an objective perspective (decentering) mediate this relationship. It is hypothesized that greater dispositional mindfulness is associated with attenuated negative impact of stuttering on a person's life through a higher capability to shift into an objective and compassionate perspective.Method:A total of 150 Israeli adults who stutter completed a full online survey in Hebrew to assess their levels of dispositional mindfulness, self-compassion, decentering capability, and impact of stuttering on their lives. The relationships between constructs were assessed using Pearson's correlation and mediation analysis.Results:The adverse impact of stuttering was negatively and moderately associated with dispositional mindfulness, such that individuals with greater self-reported dispositional mindfulness reported fewer reactions to stuttering, difficulty in communication, and higher quality of life. This relationship was fully and sequentially mediated via decentering and self-compassion, which were also negatively and moderately associated with the impact of stuttering.Conclusions:People who stutter with greater dispositional mindfulness have an increased ability to view their experiences in a more objective and compassionate manner, which is associated with an attenuated impact of stuttering on their lives. As these capabilities can be cultivated through practice, this study proposes mindfulness practice as an additional beneficial tool for people who stutter.

AbstractThe generation of a 24‐fs fibre‐coupled electro‐optic‐modulation (EO) comb at 1.5 μm with a 25‐GHz repetition rate, which is the shortest pulse, is demonstrated. The authors also generated a 2/3‐octave spanning supercontinuum spectrum using precise dispersion‐controlled silicon nitride waveguides. This method can open new horizons to generate a compact and robust carrier‐envelope‐offset‐locked EO comb.

AbstractThe global economy has been dramatically impacted by COVID‐19, which has spread to be a pandemic. COVID‐19 virus affects the respiratory system, causing difficulty breathing in the patient. It is crucial to identify and treat infections as soon as possible. Traditional diagnostic reverse transcription‐polymerase chain reaction (RT‐PCR) methods require more time to find the infection. A high infection rate, slow laboratory analysis, and delayed test results caused the widespread and uncontrolled spread of the disease. This study aims to diagnose the COVID‐19 epidemic by leveraging a modified convolutional neural network (CNN) to quickly and safely predict the disease's appearance from computed tomography (CT) scan images and a laboratory and physiological parameters dataset. A dataset representing 500 patients was used to train, test, and validate the CNN model with results in detecting COVID‐19 having an accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and F1‐score of 99.33%, 99.09%, 99.52%, and 99.24%, respectively. These experimental results suggest that our strategy performs better than previously published approaches.
Automated issue assignment using topic modelling on Jira issue tracking data
Authors: Diamantopoulos Themistoklis , Saoulidis Nikolaos , Symeonidis Andreas 
Published: May 2023

AbstractAs more and more software teams use online issue tracking systems to collaborate on software projects, the accurate assignment of new issues to the most suitable contributors may have significant impact on the success of the project. As a result, several research efforts have been directed towards automating this process to save considerable time and effort. However, most approaches focus mainly on software bugs and employ models that do not sufficiently take into account the semantics and the non‐textual metadata of issues and/or produce models that may require manual tuning. A methodology that extracts both textual and non‐textual features from different types of issues is designed, providing a Jira dataset that involves not only bugs but also new features, issues related to documentation, patches, etc. Moreover, the semantics of issue text are effectively captured by employing a topic modelling technique that is optimised using the assignment result. Finally, this methodology aggregates probabilities from a set of individual models to provide the final assignment. Upon evaluating this approach in an automated issue assignment setting using a dataset of Jira issues, the authors conclude that it can be effective for automated issue assignment.

Published: May 2023

A vertex u of a graph G = (V, E), ve-dominates every edge incident to u, as well as every edge adjacent to these incident edges. A set S ⊆ V is a vertex-edge dominating set (or a ved-set for short) if every edge of E is ve-dominated by at least one vertex of S. The vertex-edge domination number is the minimum cardinality of a ved-set in G. In this paper, we investigate the graphs having unique minimum ved-sets that we will call UVED-graphs. We start by giving some basic properties of UVED-graphs. For the class of trees, we establish two equivalent conditions characterizing UVED-trees which we subsequently complete by providing a constructive characterization.
Sauerstofftherapie in der Intensivmedizin
Authors: Gottlieb Jens 
Published: May 2023

Was ist neu?
Pulsoxymetrie und Blutgasanalysen Die Pulsoxymetrie hat eine hohe Sensitivität, aber nur eine geringe Spezifität zur Erfassung von Hypoxämien. Arterielle Blutgasanalysen sind der Goldstandard zur Überwachung einer O2-Therapie. Venöse Blutgasanalysen sollten zur O2-Steuerung nicht zum Einsatz kommen.
Zielwerte der O2-Therapie Der Zielbereich der akuten O2-Therapie für beatmete Patienten und nicht beatmete Patienten ohne Hyperkapnie-Risiko soll bei einer pulsoxymetrisch gemessenen Sauerstoffsättigung (SpO2) zwischen 92% und 96% liegen. Indikationen einer hochdosierten O2-Therapie ohne Zielbereich sind in der Intensivmedizin die Kohlenmonoxidvergiftung und Patienten mit schwerer Atemnot, wenn keine SpO2 ableitbar ist. Eine Hyperoxämie, d.h. SpO2-Werte über 96%, hat in randomisierten Studien an überwiegend beatmeten Intensivpatienten das Überleben nicht verbessert. Unter einer Hyperoxämie bei nicht beatmeten Patienten mit Hyperkapnie-Risiko (z.B. Patienten mit chronisch-obstruktiver Lungenerkrankung) besteht bei jedem dritten Patienten das Risiko eines zunehmenden Kohlendioxidanstiegs. Deswegen soll bei diesen Patienten eine Ziel-SpO2 von 88–92% angestrebt werden.
O2-Zielbereiche an extrakorporalen Verfahren Es gibt keine randomisierten Studien, die andere SpO2-Zielbereiche für Patienten an extrakorporalen Verfahren empfehlen. Diese Patienten sollen immer mit arteriellen Blutgasen – bei peripherer VA-ECMO am rechten Arm und hinter dem Oxygenator – überwacht werden.
High-Flow-Sauerstoff-Therapie beim akuten hyperkapnischen Atemversagen Die High-Flow-Sauerstoff-Therapie (HFNC) war in einer Metaanalyse überwiegend bei Patienten mit akuter Hypoxämie (Typ-I-Atemversagen) gegenüber konventionellem O2 nicht mit einer reduzierten Krankenhaussterblichkeit assoziiert, allerdings wurde die Intubationsrate reduziert. Auch beim moderaten hyperkapnischen Atemversagen (Typ II) ist die HFNC mit hohen Flussraten der nicht invasiven Beatmung (NIV) nicht unterlegen.
Zyklophotokoagulation – Vielfalt der Anwendungen

Published: May 2023

ZusammenfassungDie Zyklophotokoagulation (CPC) ist wenig invasiv, schnell durchführbar und eine der beliebtesten Glaukomoperationen in Deutschland. Glaukomatologisch wird sie aber eher als Eingriff 2.
oder 3. Wahl gesehen. Nicht zuletzt erscheint das Prinzip der Verringerung der Kammerwasserproduktion bei häufig vorliegendem Abflussproblem unphysiologisch, was zu dem eher schlechten Ruf
der Zyklophotokoagulation beiträgt. Wie die verschiedenen Modi der CPC in diesem Spannungsfeld eingeordnet werden können, soll dieser Übersichtsartikel beleuchten.

Microsurgical Clipping after Failed Contour Device Embolization of an Anterior Communicating Artery Aneurysm: Technical Note
Authors: Griessenauer Christoph J. , Killer-Oberpfalzer Monika , Beredjiklian Carlos M. , Lunzer Manuel 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
Background Endovascular therapy has revolutionized the treatment of cerebral aneurysms in recent years and decades. So-called intrasaccular devices (i.e., Woven EndoBridge [WEB], MicroVention, Aliso Viejo, California, United States; or Contour, Cerus Neurovascular, Fremont, California, United States) are a promising endovascular technology, especially for wide-based aneurysms. However, long-term outcome data are currently particularly scarce for Contour and strategies for failed Contour cases are lacking. Here, we report the feasibility of microsurgical clipping after failed Contour device embolization.
Methods Feasibility of microsurgical clipping after failed aneurysm embolization with a Contour intrasaccular device was assessed in a patient.
Results We present the case of a 36-year-old male patient diagnosed with Hunt and Hess grade 1 subarachnoid hemorrhage from an anterior communicating artery aneurysm. The ruptured aneurysm was initially treated with the Contour device. After 3 months, angiographic imaging showed a clear aneurysm residual deemed not endovascularly accessible. The patient was then successfully clipped using microsurgical techniques. The patient was discharged with no neurologic abnormalities.
Conclusion After thorough bibliographical research, this presents the first published case report of microsurgical clipping after failed embolization with Contour. The main insights gained after clipping were that the Contour does not significantly disturb or hinder clipping. In contrast to coils in aneurysms to be clipped, the Contour can be easily compressed by the clip blades and does not have to be removed. In addition, the Contour had not migrated into the subarachnoid space and there was no abnormal scarring. Clipping appears to be a reasonable treatment strategy for failure of embolization with Contour if endovascular means are not suitable.
Fundoscopy in the smartphone age: current ophthalmoscopy methods in neurology
Authors: Corr Richard Henrik 
Published: May 2023

AbstractThe observation of the human retina in vivo began in 1851 after the invention of the first ophthalmoscope by the German physicist Hermann von Helmholtz. In the following decades, direct and indirect ophthalmoscopy, with the use of ophthalmoscopes and condensing lenses, respectively, became part of the clinical examination, especially in ophthalmology and neurology. Today, over 170 years later, many ophthalmoscopes and condensing lenses exist on the market. Nevertheless, ophthalmoscopy is still not widely adopted as part of the physical exam of general practitioners, and the teaching of ophthalmoscopy in medical school remains challenging. Studies have shown that students prefer using newer ophthalmoscope models or condensing lenses during training, but most do not feel confident in performing ophthalmoscopy afterwards, regardless of the models used. Also, few students acquire ophthalmoscopes for their future practice, and clinical trials have not clearly demonstrated superiority of newer ophthalmoscope models over the conventional ones in diagnostic accuracy. The technological improvement of smartphone cameras in recent years has made it feasible to photograph the fundus of the eye using ophthalmoscopes or condensing lenses, reducing the need for retinographs and similar equipment. Smartphone assisted indirect fundoscopy is becoming increasingly popular. This approach allows adequate identification of the structures of the fundus, is cost-efficient, easy to implement, and permits easy recording and sharing of the images obtained, which is useful for case discussions and medical teaching. However, controlled clinical trials validating this method in the evaluation of optic nerve pathologies are needed.

Abstract
Background Currently, studies using video games as an intervention to improve cognitive functions in the elderly are on the rise.
Objective To investigate and evaluate the effects of cognitive interventions using video games on cognition in healthy elderly people published in the last ten years.
Methods A systematic review involving a qualitative analysis carried out between July and September 2021on the SciELO, LILACS and MEDLINE databases..
Results A total of 262 articles were identified in the initial search. After exclusion of duplicates, analysis of titles/abstracts and of the full text, a final total of 9 studies were included in the review. The objectives of the studies included investigating the effects on cognition of cognitive training (CT) programs using video games compared to programs using entertainment games or to low-intensity CT games. Despite the growing number of studies, many of them were focused on cognitive rehabilitation in elderly people with some degree of cognitive impairment, and few involved training among healthy elderly people.
Conclusion According to the studies analyzed, the interventions involving CT with video games promoted significant improvements in processing speed and working memory, but no improvements in executive functions.
A humanistic model of corporate social responsibility in e-commerce with high-tech support in the artificial intelligence economy
Authors: Zavyalova Elena B. , Volokhina Vera A. , Troyanskaya Marija A. , Dubova Yulia I. 
Published: May 2023

AbstractThis paper aims to develop a humanistic model of corporate social responsibility in e-commerce, relying on high technology in an artificial intelligence economy. The research is based on the experience of the top 30 publicly traded e-commerce companies, the 16 most responsible companies in the retail industry in the USA, and the leading global and Russian e-commerce business structures in 2020–2021. Based on econometric modeling, it is substantiated that the humanization (qualitative criterion) of jobs provides an increase in revenues of e-commerce businesses to a greater extent than an increase in the number (quantitative criterion) of jobs. The high technology of the artificial intelligence economy (AI economy) makes it possible to maximize the contribution of responsible HRM of the e-commerce business in increasing its revenues. For this purpose, a humanistic model of corporate social responsibility in e-commerce based on high technology in the AI economy has been developed. The theoretical significance lies in proving the need to humanize jobs in e-commerce and revealing the essence of this process. The practical significance lies in the fact that the developed humanistic model will increase the profitability and, consequently, the resilience of businesses to future economic crises that arise against the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Superposing tidal force fields
Authors: Jensen Jens Højgaard 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
The motion of the Earth relative to the Sun’s inertial frame of reference, is a superposition of the motion of the Earth around the common center of mass of the Moon and the Earth and the motion of that center of mass around the Sun. However, you get the resulting tidal force field due to the simultaneous existence of the Moon and the Sun by superposing a Moon- induced tidal force field and a Sun-induced tidal force field. Where, the Moon-induced tidal force field is calculated as if the Sun were not existing, and the Sun-induced tidal force field is calculated as if the Moon were not existing. The situation may lead to confusion. Thus, we give a formal conceptual account of the state of affairs, and argue that the case is useful when introducing undergraduates to inertial forces and understanding Newtonian mechanics.
A non-coplanar high-precision calibration method for cameras based on an affine coordinate correction model

Published: May 2023

Abstract
Traditional non-coplanar calibration methods such as Tsai’s method have many problems, such as insufficient calibration accuracy, inconvenient operation, inaccurate models, etc. This paper proposes a new high-precision non-coplanar calibration method that aims to solve these problems. Like Tsai’s method, the proposed calibration method utilizes a one-dimensional displacement stage and a two-dimensional plane target to generate a virtual 3D feature point sequence. As an improvement, an affine coordinate correction model is applied to ensure the accuracy and orthogonality of the obtained virtual 3D coordinates. A novel and accurate camera calibration model is further established. Compared with Tsai’s model, which uses a radial alignment constraint and ignores the orthonormal constraint of the rotation matrix, the proposed calibration model fully considers the degrees of freedom of the camera’s parameters to be calibrated, as well as the lens’s nonlinear distortion parameters. More accurate analytical solutions of intrinsic and extrinsic parameters can be obtained with the proposed calibration model. Finally, a novel high-precision non-coplanar calibration method is proposed based on the proposed calibration model. The reprojection experiment proves that the calibration accuracy of this calibration method is better than that of Tsai’s and Zhang’s calibration methods under the same calibration conditions. As a supplement, a novel binocular camera system extrinsic parameter calibration method with known intrinsic parameters is proposed. With accurate intrinsic and extrinsic parameters, the binocular camera system’s relative measurement accuracy could be within 1/10 000. Overall, this method can be used in experimental and industrial applications that require high-precision calibration parameters.
Large improvement of the tensile strength of carbon nanotube films in harsh wet environments by carbon infiltration
Authors: Chen Yu Ting , Liu Guo Long , Shi Hong Liang , Zhan Hang , Wang Jian Nong 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
Carbon nanotube (CNT) materials show large degradation in tensile strength when they are exposed in chemically active environments due to the loss of inter-tube bonding. Here, we report the suppression of such degradation by chemical vapor infiltration of amorphous carbon into CNT films. The amorphous carbon generated by the thermal decomposition of the gaseous hydrocarbon of acetylene is firmly bonded on the CNT sidewalls and intersections. Based on the improved inter-tube bonding and restriction of inter-tube sliding, the tensile strength of the film is improved to be 3 times of the original level. More importantly, the bonding is so strong and stable that the high tensile strength remains with little loss even in harsh wet environments such as boiling alcoholic, acidic, alkaline solutions and seawater. Such harsh environments-tolerant properties, which were rarely observed before, could open new windows for the CNT/C composite material to be applied from functional devices to structural components under extreme corrosive conditions.

Abstract
The arsenic impurity is widely considered to be the best choice for p-type doping of HgCdTe ternary alloys, which has been a formidable problem for decades. This work studies the terahertz photoconductivity of Hg1–x
Cd
x
Te with x ∼ 0.22 doped with arsenic and subjected to activation annealing to obtain p-type conductivity. In addition to the inevitable photoexcitation lines of mercury vacancies, which act as double acceptors, the spectra contain a distinctive line associated with the photoexcitation of the arsenic-related acceptor. In contrast to the predictions of the effective mass approximation, the binding energy of the acceptor is found to be about 25 meV. The possible reasons for this unexpectedly high chemical shift, which is not quite consistent with the data recently obtained from photoluminescence and Hall effect measurements, are discussed.
