AbstractObjectivesPaucity of data and concerns about potential lower effectiveness and more adverse events limit the use of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and endoscopic cystogastrostomy in younger children even in high‐volume centers. We retrospectively analyzed indications, success rates, and adverse events of all the children (<18 years) who underwent ERCP and endoscopic cystogastrostomy between January 2010 to May 2024 at our center.MethodsData, including patient demographics, indications for the procedure, technical details, and adverse events, were collected from our prospectively kept database and compared according to age groups (<1 year, 1–5 years, 5–10 years, and 10–18 years).ResultsA total of 286 ERCP (273 therapeutic and 13 diagnostic) and 57 endoscopic cystogastrostomy were performed in 222 (138 boys) and 55 children (32 boys), respectively, during the study period with 20% ERCP procedures in under‐five children. In children <5 years, the majority of the ERCPs were for biliary diseases (87%), while pancreatic duct procedures (39.5%) were done in higher numbers in children >5 years. For biliary ERCP, choledochal cyst (15, 33%) was the most common etiology in under‐five children and choledocholithiasis (60, 34%) in children >5 years. Cannulation and technical success rates were 95% and 92%, respectively with no significant difference across age groups. Adverse events were noted in 36 (16%) with post‐ERCP pancreatitis (8%) being the most common. All adverse events were managed conservatively with no mortality.ConclusionERCP can safely be performed in all children, including those under five with various hepato‐pancreato‐biliary diseases with high technical success rates.

Authors: Guo Zhiyong , Viacheslav Dzhedzhula 
Published: February 2025

AbstractIn order to efficiently utilize agricultural and industrial wastes, and to achieve both resource recycling and building energy efficiency, this study incorporated different dosages of fly ash (10%, 20%, and 30%) and straw (4%, 6%, 8%, and 10%) into ordinary concrete(OC) materials, and the straw was selected from corn straw powder (CSP), corn straw strips (CSS), wheat straw powder (WSP), and wheat straw strips (WSS) which were commonly found in rural areas. The compressive strength of the concrete was tested using the experimental platform, the moisture content and thermal conductivity of the concrete were tested at different air humidity levels (0%, 38.2%, 54.0%, 75.4%, and 97.4%), the functional relationship between straw fly ash admixture and the compressive strength and thermal conductivity of the concrete was investigated, and the energy efficiency of the wheat straw flour concrete walls using F20S6 (20% fly ash and 6% straw) was analyzed. The study reveals that although the incorporation of straw and fly ash makes the concrete strength weaken with the increase of the proportion, the concrete with F20S6 dosage still meets the strength requirements of the wall. Meanwhile, the thermal conductivity decreased with the increase of admixture but increased with the increase of humidity. Applied to rural dwellings, straw fly ash concrete(SFC)walls showed significant energy‐saving advantages.

ABSTRACTBackground and AimDiabetes mellitus (DM) presents significant health risks due to elevated blood sugar levels, necessitating adherence to dietary recommendations for effective management. However, diabetic patients often encounter barriers hindering their adherence to dietary guidelines. This study sought to investigate the determinants of good nutritional diet knowledge and adherence to dietary recommendations beyond the barriers faced by diabetic patients in Ghana.MethodsThis was a cross‐sectional prospective study that collected data using a tested and structured questionnaire from 100 diabetic patients from January 2024 to June 2024. Data was entered and analyzed using Microsoft Excel 2019 and SPSS (version 26). Bivariate and multivariable logistic regression was used to identify associations between dependent and independent variables. Statistical significance was set at a p‐value ≤ 0.05.ResultsThe mean age of the participants was 56.97 ± 11.98 years. Overall, about 74.44% had good nutritional diet knowledge. Being female (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 0.65, 95% confidence interval [CI] = [0.41–0.83]), and having complete tertiary education (AOR = 2.05, 95% CI = 0.96–3.82) were the factors associated with good nutritional diet knowledge. About 39% stopped their dietary plan without informing their doctor, and 60% stopped when they felt their condition was under control. The overall adherence to dietary recommendations was poor as only 48% adhered to the recommendations. Being female (AOR = 0.83, 95% CI = [0.49–2.11]), being 75 years or older (AOR = 2.74, 95% CI = 0.99–4.14), and having good nutritional knowledge (AOR = 2.80, 95% CI = 1.61–4.16) were the factors associated with good adherence to dietary recommendation.ConclusionThe participants had good nutritional diet knowledge but poor adherence to dietary recommendations. Being female and having completed tertiary education were the determinants of good nutritional diet knowledge while being female, being 75 years or older, and having good nutritional knowledge were the factors associated with good adherence. The leading adherence barriers were the discomforts associated with cooking meals that meet their dietary requirements, dietary restrictions, and financial difficulties.
Examining the Diffusion of Software‐as‐a‐Service (SaaS)‐Based Cloud Model Among Indian Firms: A Risk‐Based Perspective
Authors: Dutta Shubhendu 
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTThe study aims to identify the specific perceived risks that dissuade organizations from continuing the use of SaaS. Along with the inhibiting factors, the study also examines the role of IT governance in post adoption of SaaS. Based on the premise of prospect theory and resource based view, a mixed method study (quantitative study followed by a semi structured interview) was conducted with the IT leaders of SaaS consuming organizations to understand the phenomenon in the context. From our study, we found that among the various risks, financial risks and security and privacy risks have a greater influence on perceived risk and consequently on the intention to continuance use of SaaS. The study also reveals that the organizations are skeptical about increasing their usage level of SaaS, and they would do so on specific cases, which have less asset specificity. Further, it also indicates that regulated organizations are less inclined to increase their SaaS usage. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first one on post adoption use of SaaS among Indian firms using the risk perspective.
All Good Things Come to an End: Emerging Strategic Patterns of Sunset Foundations
Authors: Hengevoss Alice , von Schnurbein Georg 
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTSunset foundations—foundations that exist for a limited time—are gaining increased attention in the discussion on impactful philanthropy. The idea is that having a limited organizational life span allows for greater impact. However, there is little knowledge on how leaders of these foundations navigate this sunset phase. Based on organizational development theory, we take a first step in investigating the causes that lead to the decision to sunset. We apply a multiple‐case study approach to analyze an international sample of 11 sunset foundations. We find that depending on the cause for the decision to close as well as the logic through which the remaining endowment is spent down, four distinct ideal‐typical sunset strategies emerge. The proposed strategic patterns refer to as Impact Accelerators, Urgency Responders, Resource Spenders, and Fade‐outs. This classification adds to a better understanding of the strategic and managerial requirements leaders of sunset foundations should consider and the intended impact goals connected to a sunset.
Early‐Onset Macrosomia, Advanced Brain Maturation, and Gonadoblastoid Testicular Dysplasia in a Fetus With a PTEN Variant
Authors: Lynch Danielle C. , Lee Anna F. , Castle Alison M. R. 
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTWe report a case of a male fetus with early‐onset macrosomia and a pathogenic variant in PTEN identified on a macrocephaly and overgrowth sequencing panel. The pregnancy ended at 25 weeks gestation. On post‐mortem examination, macrosomia was confirmed, and maturation of the brain was approximately 3 weeks ahead of that of the visceral organs. There was microscopic evidence of gonadoblastoid dysplasia, which is an extremely rare finding and has never been associated with PTEN hamartoma tumor syndrome (PHTS). To our knowledge, this is the first report of a prenatal phenotype with a heterozygous germline variant in PTEN.
cvrip: A Visual GUI Ripping Framework
Authors: Huang Heji , Qian Ju , Jia Wenduo , Jin Yiming 
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTGUI ripping explores the graphical user interface of an application to build a model which can express the application behavior. The ripped GUI model is useful in various software engineering tasks. Traditional GUI ripping techniques depend on the underlying GUI frameworks to provide the GUI structure information. They are difficult to work across platforms or on nonnative applications where the GUI structure information cannot easily be obtained. This work introduces cvrip, a visual GUI ripping framework, to address the problem. cvrip visually analyzes the GUI screen for ripping and does not rely on the underlying GUI frameworks. We introduce many new techniques to enable efficient visual GUI ripping, for example, a YOLO v5‐based model to detect executable widgets, a state recognition acceleration method for fast model updating, and several GUI exploration strategies taking the characteristics of imperfect visual analysis into account. Experiments are conducted to evaluate many technique choices in visual GUI ripping and compare the solution with the traditional style ripping. The results show that cvrip can get competitive exploration coverage compared to traditional approaches. This suggests visual GUI ripping is a direction worthy of more future studies.
Group Membership in Capital and Labour Earnings
Authors: Charles Aurelie 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
This chapter provides evidence of how group biases aggregate in the process of financial accumulation and the way they affect economic exchange over time. What can we learn on group behaviour from the demographics of capital and labour earnings historically, regionally, nationally and across borders? At the national level, what can we learn from the interdependence of earning trends between groups on the social entitlement rules to financial flows? Being able to map out the rules of legitimacy that are context-specific is key to understanding the tacit rules of human interactions and financial accumulation. Looking at the most visible (data-wise) part of the market economy, the relationships between the historical trends of labour and capital earnings are investigated by gender, race, nationality and occupation for the US, UK and France. It shows that there a two-tier economic system where earnings go in the hands of a few dominant groups at the top of the income distribution, while leaving labour earners with stagnant real-wages.
Patriarchy Has Produced the Patriacene: Can Gender Challenge Its Persistence?
Authors: Spring Úrsula Oswald 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
This chapter reviews the evolution of thePatriacene(1The author thanks an anonymous reviewer for the suggestion of the “Patriacene”, which better explains the links between the destruction of society and nature and violent patriarchal behaviour.) over the past 6000 years. The ‘system of rule’ changed from maternal clans to fratrilineal kinships, god-kings, pater familias, colonisation, capitalism, and multinational corporations. Patriarchy is based on violence, wars, and exploitation of humans and nature. Facing these imperialist powers, people in the Global South are helpless to limit the extraction and mistreatments. Thus, women experimented radical alternatives with gift economy, the Aymara’sCosmovisionof‘living well’ and theZapatista’s ‘leading by obeying’. They reversed violent accumulation by understanding that ‘there is no better life’, promoting subsistence production, inclusive education, traditional health care, and diverse productive activities. Their bottom-upcultural options against the Patriaceneare improving well-being, social care, local cohesion, sorority, and ecosystem restoration.

Published: February 2025

Zusammenfassung
Dieses Kapitel zeigt, wie realitätsnahe aufgaben- und maschinenspezifische Verluste prognostiziert werden können. Die Verlustprognosen können bereits in der Planungsphase zur Reduktion thermischer Schwankungen eingesetzt werden, wodurch geringe Verbesserungen des Temperaturganges möglich werden. Deutlich mehr Wert besteht jedoch in der aufgezeigten Simulation der thermischen Beharrung und deren Nutzung für eine bedarfsgerechte Kühlstrategie.

Published: February 2025

Zusammenfassung
Bei Zerspanungsprozessen wird die mechanische Energie in den Scher- und Reibzonen zwischen Werkzeug und Werkstück weitgehend in Wärme umgewandelt. Dadurch entstehen außerordentlich hohe mechanische und thermische Spannungen, die zu einer thermisch bedingten Verschiebung der Werkzeugspitze und damit zu einer geringeren Bearbeitungsgenauigkeit führen. Während der Zerspanung verursacht die Prozesswärme einen erheblichen Wärmeeintrag in das Werkzeug und sein Spannsystem.
Bundesweiter Vergleich zu heilkundlichen Maßnahmen durch Notfallsanitäterinnen und Notfallsanitäter
Authors: Dittmar Michael S. , Kraus Marina , Graf Bernhard M. 
Published: February 2025

Zusammenfassung

Hintergrund
Die heilkundliche Tätigkeit durch Notfallsanitäterinnen und Notfallsanitäter ohne notärztliche Anwesenheit basiert v. a. 1.) auf einer Delegation durch z. B. die Ärztliche Leitung Rettungsdienst oder 2.) auf eigenverantwortlicher Heilkundeausübung nach § 2a Notfallsanitätergesetz. Beide Möglichkeiten unterscheiden sich u. a. hinsichtlich der Verantwortung für die Indikationsstellung. Diese Arbeit gibt erstmals einen bundesweiten Überblick, wer welche Verantwortung im Rahmen der Behandlungsvorgaben für Notfallsanitäterinnen und Notfallsanitäter trägt.

Material und Methoden
Die Behandlungsalgorithmen zu 5 Krankheitsbildern wurden für alle Bundesländer hinsichtlich ihrer geografischen Gültigkeit, der Deklaration sowie des objektiven Charakters als Delegation der Ärztlichen Leitung Rettungsdienst oder entsprechend verantwortlicher Ärztinnen oder Ärzte (ÄLRD-Delegation) oder Heilkundeausübung (§ 2a NotSanG) und der Erstreckung auf Betäubungsmittel ausgewertet. Die Datenerhebung fand im Zeitraum von Dezember 2020 bis Juni 2022 statt.

Ergebnisse
Es wurden 112 Algorithmen mit 403 Einzelmaßnahmen analysiert. Für 11 Bundesländer wurden landesweit gültige, in 5 Ländern regional abweichende Behandlungsvorgaben gefunden. Der ÄLRD-Delegations- oder § 2a NotSanG-Status war in lediglich 40 % der einzelnen Maßnahmen explizit deklariert. Diese Deklaration zeigte in 93 % eine Übereinstimmung mit dem objektiven Charakter der Maßnahme. Eine eigenständige oder eigenverantwortliche Betäubungsmittelgabe durch NotSan ist in 6 Ländern vorgesehen.

Diskussion
In der Mehrheit der für NotSan vorgesehenen Maßnahmen ist nicht ersichtlich, ob diese in ÄLRD-Delegation oder nach § 2a NotSanG angewendet werden sollen. Eine entsprechende Deklaration durch die Ersteller könnte hier für mehr Klarheit bezüglich der Verantwortlichkeiten sorgen. Sowohl eine ÄLRD-Delegation als auch eine Betäubungsmittelgabe ohne Arztanwesenheit ist nicht in allen Bundesländern etabliert. Aufgrund der sich stetig weiterentwickelnden Rechtslage stellen sich die untersuchten Endpunkte in einzelnen Regionen mittlerweile anders dar.

Published: February 2025

Abstract

Background
Metabolomics reflects the molecular communications within biological systems. Urine is a noninvasive biofluid, rich in metabolites that serve as potential biomarkers for human health and disease. The impact of storage conditions and DNA stabilizers for urine samples in metabolomic studies remain unclear.

Objective
To evaluate the impact of common storage conditions and the presence of a DNA stabilizer, AssayAssure® (Thermo Scientific), on the metabolite content of voided human urine.

Methods
We assessed the urinary metabolite composition under different storage conditions and with the addition of AssayAssure® to determine its effect on metabolomic analysis.

Results
Urinary metabolite composition remained consistent across different storage conditions. However, the addition of AssayAssure® significantly altered the metabolic profile due to adduct formation. Despite these alterations, the identification of parent metabolites was not compromised, and biological differences were still distinguishable.

Conclusion
These findings suggest that urine biobanked under the tested storage conditions is suitable for metabolomic analysis. The addition of AssayAssure® does not hinder the detection of parent metabolites, although it may affect the overall metabolic profile.
Unmarked simple length spectral rigidity for covers
Authors: Aougab Tarik , Lahn Max , Loving Marissa , Miller Nicholas 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
We prove that every closed, connected, orientable surface S of negative Euler characteristic admits a pair of finite-degree covers which are length isospectral over S but generically not simple length isospectral over S. To do this, we first characterize when two finite-degree covers of a connected, orientable surface of negative Euler characteristic are isomorphic in terms of which curves have simple elevations. We also construct hyperbolic surfaces X and Y with the same full unmarked length spectrum but so that for each k, the sets of lengths associated to curves with at most k self-intersections differ.
The role of resveratrol in delivering antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic defense against nephrotoxicity generated by titanium dioxide

Published: February 2025

Abstract
Titanium dioxide is a prevalent food ingredient for human ingestion. We investigated the nephrotoxic effects of titanium dioxide in Wistar albino rats subjected to oral exposure for 14 days. The rats were categorized into four groups (n = 8): (1) control (saline solution), (2) exposure to titanium dioxide (30 mg/kg), (3) exposure to resveratrol (100 mg/kg), and (4) exposure to both titanium dioxide and resveratrol. The investigations revealed that the administration of titanium dioxide resulted in considerable histological abnormalities and a significant prevalence of apoptotic cells marked by caspase-3 in the titanium dioxide group, with a markedly elevated quantity and strong staining of cells reacting with 4-HN across the tissue in the kidney. Blood serum assessments revealed that BUN and creatinine levels were elevated in the titanium group relative to the other three groups, with a reduction in these levels observed in the group receiving both titanium and resveratrol (P < 0.05). The assessment of oxidative stress markers in kidney tissue revealed that GSH-Px and SOD activity considerably decreased in the titanium dioxide group relative to the other experimental groups. In contrast, MDA levels increased markedly (P < 0.05). The activities of GSH-Px and SOD were significantly elevated in the group receiving both titanium dioxide and resveratrol compared to the titanium dioxide-only group (P < 0.05). The analysis of inflammation markers TNF-α and IL-6 revealed a substantial rise in their levels in the titanium dioxide group compared to the other groups (P < 0.05).
