Mainstreaming the Full ENSO: Linking Present Weather and Future Climate
Authors: Glantz Michael H. , Naranjo-Diaz Lino , Ye Qian , Pierce Gregory E. 
Published: December 2022

AbstractIn this article we propose that all countries that are striving to become a Weather-Ready Nation (WRN) would benefit greatly from including El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO)-related research findings into their decision-making processes, not only when an El Niño or a La Niña forecast has been issued quasi-periodically. For an aspiring WRN, to benefit from ENSO information, such as disruptive or beneficial changes that could be foreseeably expected to occur in seasonal flow and in sub-seasonal hydrometeorological anomalies, requires its continuous mainstreaming about the status of the ENSO process into a WRN’s decision-making activities. The ENSO process provides a bridge between sub-seasonal weather anomalies and a sub-decadal climate phenomenon as well as a bridge between coping with weather extremes today and preparing for climate change-related hydrometeorological hazards in the future. ENSO extremes every few years provide a chance to evaluate a nation’s strategic and tactical responses to hydrometeorological hazard forecasts and disasters. Each successive ENSO extreme and its Neutral phase tests previously designed best practices. Involvement of today’s youth and young professionals on climate, water, and weather issues has been increasing and will do so in coming decades. Shifting awareness and attention to ENSO and away from ENSO extremes is crucial. The heightened urgency for understanding the full ENSO “cycle” especially by youth and young professionals today is because they will soon be in professional positions that enable them to advise decision makers about climate policy issues. Their understanding of the ENSO cycle is critically needed, as global warming is expected to continue to increase for the rest of the twenty-first century.
Kinder- und Jugendpsychiatrische Versorgung im Bereich Mental Health Rehabilitation in Österreich
Authors: Lienbacher Brigitta , Thun-Hohenstein Leonhard 
Published: December 2022

Zusammenfassung
Hintergrund
Mental Health-Rehabilitation für Kinder und Jugendliche wurde aufbauend auf einem Rehabilitationsplan von 2016 in Österreich ab 2018 zur Umsetzung gebracht. In der Zwischenzeit sind drei Rehabilitationszentren in 3 verschiedenen Versorgungszonen (Ost, Nord, Süd) errichtet und in Betrieb genommen worden.

Methodik
Es wurde eine Anfrage bei der ÖGK um aktuelle Zahlen betreffend Aufnahme und Diagnosen durchgeführt sowie eine Stellungnahme der Leiterinnen der österreichischen Reha-Zentren herangezogen, um anhand dieser Daten und Fakten und im Lichte der vorangegangenen Planungen die Umsetzung der Mental Health Rehabilitation für Kinder und Jugendliche in Österreich zu dokumentieren und kritisch zu analysieren.

Ergebnisse
In den drei Zentren wurden insgesamt 96 Behandlungsplätze eröffnet und in Betrieb genommen. Das vierte Zentrum soll 2022 in Betrieb gehen. Mit diesem wird die Bettenmessziffer im berechneten Bereich liegen, aber deutlich unter den Annahmen des Rehabilitationsplanes 2016. In Bezug auf die Strukturqualitätskriterien sind insbesondere die Konzeptualisierung und die Berechnung der Personalstrukturen als nicht ausreichend anzusehen. Die Umsetzung des Rehabilitationsplanes 2016 erfolgte nur teilweise, da nur MHR-Typ I Zentren errichtet wurden. Die Inanspruchnahme erscheint nach dreijähriger Betriebsdauer ausreichend zu sein, wobei das Diagnosespektrum aufzeigt, dass eher Kinder und Jugendliche mit akuten Problemen (Belastungsstörungen, depressive Episode) betreut wurden.

Schlussfolgerung
Erfreulicherweise sind die beschriebenen Mental Health Rehabilitations-Zentren in Betrieb gegangen und wurden gut angenommen. Allerdings ist festzuhalten, dass das ursprüngliche Konzept verlassen bzw. reduziert wurde, dass die Strukturqualität und die Konzeptualisierung nochmals überdacht werden sollten und es dringend empfohlen wird, das ursprüngliche Konzept umzusetzen.
The Corporate Design of Investments in Startups: A European Experience
Authors: Giudici Paolo , Agstner Peter , Capizzi Antonio 
Published: December 2022

AbstractThis is the first European study to conduct an extensive empirical research of startup charters. Our aim is to test whether the significant reforms of the law on the Italian società a responsabilità limitata (the GmbH-type limited liability company) were successful in making Italian corporate law more amicable towards startups and venture capital contracting techniques. We explain why, in the Italian context, charters provide significant information on financing deals, and we analyse more than 5000 charters of Italian startups. We find almost 200 charters that reflect the features predicted by the financial contracting theory, albeit with some significant variations in comparison to the US experience. The main one is that convertible preferred shares are not used. We report the large use of (non-convertible) participating preferred shares but also the increasing adoption of preferred shares that are functionally equivalent to US convertible non-participating preferred shares. The absence of convertibility mechanisms also explains the different structure of antidilution clauses in the Italian market. Hybrids are used to provide SAFE- and KISS-like contractual solutions. Co-sale clauses (tag-along and drag-along) are widespread and also highly standardized. US-like vesting schemes are equally observed. Some of the peculiarities we report depend on Italian law idiosyncrasies that are mainly the product of doctrinal constructions. However, corporate practice is pushing the envelope in its efforts to adapt Italian charters to startuppers’ and investors’ needs. From this standpoint, the Italian reforms look, though not completely, successful. Startup law appears to be transforming the European corporate law tradition.
Safety and certainty in the design of roads
Authors: Hupfer Christoph 
Published: December 2022

AbstractIn many places we experience a cycling infrastructure that is not sufficiently safe and/or is perceived as not sufficiently safe. But the needs of cyclists seem to be well known. The existing regulations offer a sufficient wealth of knowledge and infrastructure elements. However, these aspects have to be weighed against each other and against additional demands. Decisions on the design of road spaces are made with local political participation, often by committed laypeople. The abundance of criteria and their weighting, which are defined in the regulations for engineers and planners, seem to overwhelm the decision-makers or do not sufficiently address them. Uncertainty in decision-making fosters a lack of road safety in infrastructure. There is a need for a more suitable decision-making basis for the construction of infrastructure that addresses a responsible decision by the laypersons involved outside of the numerous technical criteria and their weighing against each other or against each other and supports decision-making more strongly.In the following, an approach from planning practice is presented based on two exemplary situations, which requires systematic validation. Here, a joined approach of engineering sciences and social psychology could provide suitable assistance for better decisions in the sense of a stronger development towards sustainability and quality of life.Practical Relevance: The redesign of traffic facilities for more bicycle and pedestrian traffic and the design of urban street spaces towards living spaces are a particular challenge. It is important that expert planners offer guiding questions to decision-makers. These must focus on the goals and the achievement of goals for the people for whom the goals have been set. This leads to more goal-focused decisions and more goal-directed effective change.

Published: December 2022

Abstract
Survival (overall, event free, etc.) is the most-used outcome in clinical oncology studies. This study analyzed methodological reporting of survival analysis in pediatric leukemia studies, focusing on Cox proportional hazards (PH). We performed a systematic review of studies published between 2012 and 2021 in the five highest-ranking oncology and five highest-ranking hematology journals. The included studies had to focus on pediatric leukemia and utilize survival analyses. We extracted data on how the survival analysis methodology was reported and focused on Cox proportional hazards modeling and whether the PH assumption was checked. We screened 561 studies and included 103 in the analysis. The most-used crude survival analysis method was Kaplan–Meier, as 96 (94%) of the 103 studies applied it. Adjusted survival analysis was performed in 80 (78%) of the included studies, and the Cox PH model was used in 77 (96%) of these studies. The PH assumption was mentioned in 18 (23%) of the 77 studies that used the Cox PH model. Only nine studies (12%) stated how the PH assumption was assessed. We noted 10 (13%) studies with possible violations of the PH assumption. Overall, we found a need for improvement in the reporting of survival analysis and especially PH assumption in pediatric leukemia studies. The Cox PH model was the most-used adjusted survival analysis method but checking of the background assumption was not reported in most of the studies.
Vom Widerspruch zur Disruption des Völkerrechts. Europäische Ordnungsbildung jenseits kollektiv geteilter Standards
Authors: Hubert Florian 
Published: December 2022

ZusammenfassungMit dem Angriffskrieg Russlands gegen die Ukraine wurden paradigmatische Gewissheiten einer als normative Ordnung zu denkenden Friedensarchitektur erschüttert. Zweifel an lange als verlässlich befundenen Wissensbeständen erschöpfen sich indes nicht im Umstand eines Staatenkrieges in Europa, wie von realistischen Stimmen zu vernehmen ist. Sie liegen vielmehr im ungeklärten Umgang mit neuen Paradigmen der Disruption begründet, mit dem das Handeln zwischen divergierenden Staatengruppen nicht allein vom Widerspruch an vornehmlich westlichen Auslegungs- und Gestaltungspraktiken geprägt ist, sondern von einer proaktiven Konkurrenz, die Lesarten des Völkerrechts wie auch Formen multilateraler Sicherheitskoordination betreffen. Sie gehen mit eigenen Rationalitäten, Wirklichkeitshorizonten und für legitim befundener Gewaltausübung einher. Russland rekurriert so auf das Völkerrecht und „historische Rechte“ mit extraterritorialen Schutzansprüchen im „nahen Ausland“, sodass der aus dem Völkerrecht des 19. und 20. Jahrhunderts bekannte Raumbegriff an die Stelle souveräner Staaten als seine primären Rechtssubjekte tritt. Deser Beitrag lokalisiert ein Forschungsdesiderat der Konfliktforschung in der situationsangemessenen Reformulierung künftig intensiver beanspruchter Konzepte normgeleiteten Handelns, welche die performative Wirkung solcher Ordnungsvorstellungen als Weltbilder ernstnehmen muss.
TIST: Transcriptome and Histopathological Image Integrative Analysis for Spatial Transcriptomics

Published: December 2022

Abstract
Sequencing-based spatial transcriptomics (ST) is an emerging technology to study in situ gene expression patterns at the whole-genome scale. Currently, ST data analysis is still complicated by high technical noises and low resolution. In addition to the transcriptomic data, matched histopathological images are usually generated for the same tissue sample along the ST experiment. The matched high-resolution histopathological images provide complementary cellular phenotypical information, providing an opportunity to mitigate the noises in ST data. We present a novel ST data analysis method called transcriptome and histopathological image integrative analysis for ST (TIST), which enables the identification of spatial clusters (SCs) and the enhancement of spatial gene expression patterns by integrative analysis of matched transcriptomic data and images. TIST devises a histopathological feature extraction method based on Markov random field (MRF) to learn the cellular features from histopathological images, and integrates them with the transcriptomic data and location information as a network, termed TIST-net. Based on TIST-net, SCs are identified by a random walk-based strategy, and gene expression patterns are enhanced by neighborhood smoothing. We benchmark TIST on both simulated datasets and 32 real samples against several state-of-the-art methods. Results show that TIST is robust to technical noises on multiple analysis tasks for sequencing-based ST data and can find interesting microstructures in different biological scenarios. TIST is available at http://lifeome.net/software/tist/ and https://ngdc.cncb.ac.cn/biocode/tools/BT007317.
Horse Insurance and the Katastasis in the Greek Cavalry: Two Separate Entities
Authors: Mihajlov Anneka 
Published: December 2022

AbstractThe cavalry of classical Athens remains an enigmatic part of the polis’ military forces. Although often described by historians as an insignificant arm of the classical Athenian army, in the fifth century BCE it was financially supported in two ways: a supposed insurance scheme for each cavalryman's mount, and what is often called an ‘establishment loan’, the κατάστασις (katastasis), to assist with the initial costs of joining the cavalry corps.1These two unique economic supports are often tied together in modern discussions as parts of the same measure. The present article will instead argue that these two aspects not only could, but should, be separated. Further, it will be suggested that these two forms of support highlight the practical importance of the cavalry, in contrast to thecommunis opinio. In a military environment where resources were in high demand, the Athenian state made a conscious decision to offer considerable support – around 40 talents a year – to ensure they had a citizen cavalry ready for action.
Hobbes, Empire, and the Politics of the Cabal: Political Thought and Policy Making in the Restoration
Authors: Ward Matthew , Rose Jacqueline 
Published: December 2022

AbstractThis article explores a sizable and largely unknown manuscript treatise from the 1670s, “Pax et Obedientia,” which discusses the Civil Wars, trade, the origins of government, toleration, plantations (especially Jamaica), and the royal supremacy, embedding within it a distinctive engagement with Hobbes and a particular vision of imperial composite monarchy. This first analysis of what “Pax” said, who wrote it, and why he did so in the way that he did nuances the present understanding of Restoration debates over a centralizing empire; it reveals the different forms that policy makers thought that empire might take, while also capturing a moment of transition between different meanings of imperium. The anonymous author's engagement with Hobbes further suggests how questions that later fell into the realm of political economy were discussed at the time, using the language of natural jurisprudence. In demonstrating the methodological necessity of utilizing both linguistic and institutional contexts, the authors argue that the apparent incoherence of “Pax” reflects an essential although ineptly executed strategy on the part of its author. Inchoate though the manuscript is, it offers a significant opportunity to understand the intellectual world of junior members of the government and to reconsider the intersection of political thinking and political action.
Rethinking technologies of remembering for a postcolonial world
Authors: Keightley Emily 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
This article sets out some of the analytical moves that are necessary to developing a distinctive area of research called postcolonial memory studies. A key barrier to synthesising insights from postcolonial and memory studies has been a reductive approach to analogue and digital technologies which operate as vehicles for memory. Three analytical moves are needed to decentre, or at the very least de-naturalise the technological narratives and ecologies of Europe and the US. Media memory studies needs to draw more effectively on postcolonial studies to position mediated memory as inextricably connected to the legacies of colonialism and empire; develop a much broader account of media infrastructures emerging from what is increasingly characterised as ‘global media studies’; make an empirical and analytical shift away from the primacy of digital communications technologies and to explore technologies, not just as artefacts but as knowledge generating cultural practices. The combined value of these three shifts in approaches to media and communications technologies in memory studies research has considerable potential for developing postcolonial media memory studies research which offers a thorough and empirically grounded analysis of the complex ways in which the legacies of colonialism shape and structure the ways in which practices and performances of remembering are mediated in contemporary social life. This shift towards postcolonial memory studies can be seen as part of the wider project of what Anna (Amza) Reading has in this volume called ‘rewilding memory’ by rethinking ‘the underlying ecologies of knowledge within studies of memory’.

Published: December 2022

AbstractMindful eating (ME) has been linked to improvement in binge eating disorder, but this approach in obesity management has shown conflicting results. Our aim was to assess the effect of ME associated with moderate energy restriction (MER) on weight loss in women with obesity. Metabolic parameters, dietary assessment, eating behaviour, depression, anxiety and stress were also evaluated. A total of 138 women with obesity were randomly assigned to three intervention groups: ME associated with MER (ME + MER), MER and ME, and they were followed up monthly for 6 months. ME + MER joined seven monthly mindfulness-based intervention group sessions each lasting 90 min and received an individualised food plan with MER (deficit of 2092 kJ/d - 500 kcal/d). MER received an individualised food plan with MER (deficit of 2092 kJ/d - 500 kcal/d), and ME joined seven monthly mindfulness-based intervention group sessions each lasting 90 min. Seventy patients completed the intervention. Weight loss was significant, but no statistically significant difference was found between the groups. There was a greater reduction in uncontrolled eating in the ME group than in the MER group and a greater reduction in emotional eating in the ME group than in both the MER and the ME + MER groups. No statistically significant differences were found in the other variables evaluated between groups. The association between ME with energy restriction did not promote greater weight loss than ME or MER.

Published: December 2022

AbstractWe wished to determine if Mycoplasma bovis infection can negatively impact milk quality and production in Holstein dairy cows. For this Research Communication, milk samples (271) from Holstein cows from 3 herds were screened for M. bovis by real-time PCR. Positive (n = 21) and negative animals (n = 21) were matched by herd, age, lactations and days in milk (DIM). Pairs were evaluated in 7 stages of lactation: D1–50, D51–100, D101–150, D151–200, D201–250, D251–300, and D ≥ 301. A mixed model was used to assess the effect of groups (M. bovis+ × M.bovis−), time (lactation) and groups × time interaction. Cows positive for M. bovis had lower average milk production per day and high somatic cells count (SCC).
Effect of parturition time and climatic conditions on milk productivity, milk quality and udder morphometry in Saanen goats in a semi-intensive system
Authors: Erduran Hakan 
Published: December 2022

AbstractThis study is the first report to investigate the relationships between time of parturition and milk productivity and quality, as well as indices related to udder measurements and meteorological variables, in Saanen goats raised under semi-intensive conditions. Goats giving birth in the hours of darkness had higher milk production than those that gave birth in the hours of daylight, while those giving birth during the evening hours had lower somatic cell count (SCC) than those with parturition during the daylight and night hours (P < 0.05). In addition, the time of parturition was associated with rear udder depth, udder circumference, and udder volume traits (P < 0.01). Parity and time of parturition × parity interaction had significant effects on lactation milk yield and lactation length, as well as milk fat, protein, lactose, total solids content and electrical conductivity (P < 0.05 to P < 0.01). The lactation stage, daily milk yield level and parity affected milk SCC (P < 0.05). Ambient temperature and daylight length had strong effects on daily milk yield (P < 0.05). These findings have practical implications for productivity, quality and health promotion efforts aimed at increasing Saanen goat dairy productivity consistently in the face of climatic changes in a semi-intensive system.
Measuring and Improving Stakeholder Welfare Is Easier Said than Done

Published: December 2022

AbstractWhile corporate social responsibility by firms aims at improving welfare for different social groups, whether it achieves this is often difficult to measure. After Apr. 2018 protests, Starbucks enacted policies that anybody could sit in their stores and use the bathroom without making a purchase. Using anonymized cellphone location data, we estimate this led to a 7.0% decline in attendance relative to other nearby coffee shops. The effect is 84% larger near homeless shelters and larger for Starbucks’ wealthier customers. The average time spent per visit declined by 4.1%. Public urination citations decreased near Starbucks locations, but other minor crimes were unchanged.
A Liberalization Spillover: From Equities to Loans
Authors: Liu Xin , Wei Shang-Jin , Zhou Yifan 
Published: December 2022

AbstractThe opening of equity markets to foreign investment by developing countries appears to generate an enormously large positive growth effect (see Bekaert, Harvey, and Lundblad (2005), Journal of Financial Economics 77, 3–55) in spite of a relatively small role of such markets for financing investment in most economies. We propose a spillover channel from equity market opening to lower costs of bank loans, which helps to explain this puzzle. From analyzing bank loan data associated with China’s introduction of the Qualified Foreign Institutional Investors program, we find significant support for this channel. Furthermore, we show that a reduction in the risk premium in loans is an important mechanism.
