Thermodynamics and energy loss in D dimensions from holographic QCD model
Authors: Zhu Zhou-Run , Chen Jun-Xia , Liu Xian-Ming , Hou Defu 
Published: June 2022

AbstractWe consider the holographic QCD model with a planar horizon in the D dimensions with different consistent metric solutions. We investigate the black hole thermodynamics, phase diagram and equations of state (EoS) in different dimensions. The temperature and chemical potential dependence of the drag force and diffusion coefficient also have been studied. From the results, the energy loss of heavy quark shows an enhancement near the phase transition temperature in D dimensions. This finding illustrates that the energy loss of heavy quark has a nontrivial and non-monotonic dependence on temperature. Furthermore, we find the heavy quark may lose less energy in higher dimension. The diffusion coefficient is larger in higher dimension.

AbstractThe current knowledge on the$$D_{s}^{*}$$Ds∗meson are very limited. Besides the dominant electromagnetic decays, the$$D_{s}^{*}$$Ds∗weak decays are legal and offer the valuable opportunities to explore the wanted$$D_{s}^{*}$$Ds∗meson. In this paper, the$$D_{s}^{*}\rightarrow {\phi }{\pi }$$Ds∗→ϕπdecay was studied with the factorization approach. It is found that the branching ratio$${\mathcal {B}}(D_{s}^{*}\rightarrow {\phi }{\pi })$$B(Ds∗→ϕπ)$${\sim }$$∼$${\mathcal {O}}(10^{-7})$$O(10-7), which corresponds to several thousands of events at the$$e^{+}e^{-}$$e+e-collider experiments including STCF, SuperKEKB, CEPC and FCC-ee, and several millions of events at the hadron collider experiments, such as LHCb@HL-LHC. It is feasible to experimentally study the$$D_{s}^{*}\rightarrow {\phi }{\pi }$$Ds∗→ϕπweak decay in the future, even considering the identification efficiency.

Self-reported type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a risk factor for many cancers, suggesting its pathology relates to carcinogenesis. We conducted a case-cohort study to examine associations of hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and c-peptide with cancers associated with self-reported T2DM. This study was drawn from a prospective cohort of 32,383 women and men who provided blood specimens at baseline: c-peptide and HbA1c were assessed in 3,000 randomly selected participants who were cancer-free-at-baseline and an additional 2,281 participants who were cancer-free-at-baseline and subsequently diagnosed with incident colorectal, liver, pancreatic, female breast, endometrial, ovarian, bladder, or kidney cancers. Weighted Cox regression models estimated HRs and 95% confidence intervals (CI), adjusted for covariates. c-peptide was associated with higher risk of liver cancer [per SD HR: 1.80; 95% CI: 1.32–2.46]. HbA1c was associated with higher risk of pancreatic cancer (per SD HR: 1.21; 95% CI: 1.05–1.40) and with some suggestion of higher risks for all-cancers-of-interest (per SD HR: 1.05; 95% CI: 0.99–1.11) and colorectal (per SD HR: 1.09; 95% CI: 0.98–1.20), ovarian (per SD HR: 1.18; 95% CI: 0.96–1.45) and bladder (per SD HR: 1.08; 95% CI: 0.96–1.21) cancers. Compared with no self-reported T2DM and HbA1c &lt; 6.5% (reference group), self-reported T2DM and HbA1c &lt; 6.5% (i.e., T2DM in good glycemic control) was not associated with risk of colorectal cancer, whereas it was associated with higher risks of all-cancers-of-interest combined (HR: 1.28; 95% CI: 1.01–1.62), especially for breast and endometrial cancers. Additional large, prospective studies are needed to further explore the roles of hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, and related metabolic traits with T2DM-associated cancers to better understand the mechanisms underlying the self-reported T2DM-cancer association and to identify persons at higher cancer risk.Significance:The results from this study suggest that HbA1c and c-peptide, markers of hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia respectively, are associated with certain cancers, though people with diabetes may be at increased risk of these cancers, perhaps other than colorectal, even when their glucose is well controlled.

Published: June 2022

Introduction:
Musculoskeletal injuries are the most common reason for surgical intervention in polytrauma patients.

Methods:
This is a retrospective cohort study of 560 polytrauma patients (injury severity score [ISS] >17) who suffered musculoskeletal injuries (ISS >2) from 2011 to 2015 in National University Hospital, Singapore.

Results:
560 patients (444 [79.3%] male and 116 [20.7%] female) were identified. The mean age was 44 (range 3–90) years, with 45.4% aged 21–40 years. 39.3% of the patients were foreign migrant workers. Motorcyclists were involved in 63% of road traffic accidents. The mean length of hospital stay was 18.8 (range 0–273) days and the mean duration of intensive care unit (ICU) stay was 5.7 (range 0–253) days. Patient mortality rate was 19.8%. A Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score <12 and need for blood transfusion were predictive of patient mortality (p < 0.05); lower limb injuries, road traffic accidents, GCS score <8 and need for transfusion were predictive of extended hospital stay (p < 0.05); and reduced GCS score, need for blood transfusion and upper limb musculoskeletal injuries were predictive of extended ICU stay. Inpatient costs were significantly higher for foreign workers and greatly exceeded the minimum insurance coverage currently required.

Conclusion:
Musculoskeletal injuries in polytrauma remain a significant cause of morbidity and mortality, and occur predominantly in economically productive male patients injured in road traffic accidents and falls from height. Increasing insurance coverage for foreign workers in high-risk jobs should be evaluated.
Jesus, the Holder of the Seven Stars in His Right Hand
Authors: Lee Sanghwan 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
In Rev 1:16a, Jesus is portrayed as holding the seven stars in his right hand. The immediate context interprets this imagery as Jesus’s exercising his sovereignty over the seven angels of the seven churches (v. 20). This article suggests that a secondary interpretation is possible in light of numismatic evidence and the larger context of Revelation. According to this reading, the depiction of Jesus in Rev 1:16a functions as a literary device that subverts the message embedded in the Divvs Caesar coin types—a message that promotes the imperial power. By portraying Jesus as the holder of the seven stars in his right hand, the author of Revelation places Jesus far above the imperial power, claiming that Jesus is the ruler par excellence whose sovereignty extends to both the terrestrial and celestial realms.
The Construction and Contents of the Beatty-Michigan Pauline Epistles Codex (𝔓⁴⁶)
Authors: Nongbri Brent 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
The surviving portion of the papyrus codex of the letters of Paul split between the Chester Beatty Library and the University of Michigan (𝔓⁴⁶) consists of a well preserved but damaged single quire containing parts of nine of Paul’s letters. Because the pages of the codex are numbered, scholars have believed that it is possible to reconstruct the original size of the quire, which turns out to be too small for the traditional Pauline corpus of fourteen letters. Many scholars have taken this to mean that the codex did not contain the Pastoral letters (1–2 Timothy and Titus). Jeremy Duff has argued that the copyist increased the number of letters per page in the second half of the codex and intended to add extra leaves in order to produce a codex with all of the fourteen letters found in the majority of undamaged Greek manuscripts of Paul’s letters. While Duff’s hypothesis has been critically engaged on other grounds, this article assesses Duff’s proposed ancient comparanda for the addition of extra folia to the end of a single-quire codex and revisits the problem of the contents of this codex in light of the construction techniques of better preserved single-quire codices.
Regimes and Transitions in the Basal Melting of Antarctic Ice Shelves
Authors: Rosevear Madelaine G. , Gayen Bishakhdatta , Galton-Fenzi Benjamin K. 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
The Antarctic Ice Sheet is losing mass as a result of increased ocean-driven melting of its fringing ice shelves. Efforts to represent the effects of basal melting in sea level projections are undermined by poor understanding of the turbulent ice shelf–ocean boundary layer (ISOBL), a meters-thick layer of ocean that regulates heat and salt transfer between the ocean and ice. To address this shortcoming, we perform large-eddy simulations of the ISOBL formed by a steady, geostrophic flow beneath horizontal ice. We investigate melting and ISOBL structure and properties over a range of free-stream velocities and ocean temperatures. We find that the melting response to changes in thermal and current forcing is highly nonlinear due to the effects of meltwater on ISOBL turbulence. Three distinct ISOBL regimes emerge depending on the relative strength of current shear and buoyancy forcing: “well-mixed,” “stratified,” or “diffusive-convective.” We present expressions for mixing-layer depth for each regime and show that the transitions between regimes can be predicted with simple nondimensional parameters. We use these results to develop a novel regime diagram for the ISOBL which provides insight into the varied melting responses expected around Antarctica and highlights the need to include stratified and diffusive-convective dynamics in future basal melting parameterizations. We emphasize that melting in the diffusive-convective regime is time dependent and is therefore inherently difficult to parameterize.

Significance Statement
The purpose of this study is to investigate the processes that control ocean-driven melting of Antarctic ice shelves (100–1000-m-thick floating extensions of the Antarctic ice sheet). Currently, these processes are poorly understood due to the difficulty of accessing the ocean beneath ice shelves. Using an ocean model, we determine the melting response to different ocean conditions, including feedbacks whereby cold, fresh meltwater can enhance or suppress turbulent eddies beneath the ice, depending on the ocean state. Our results point the way to improvements in the representation of ocean-driven melting in ocean/climate models, which will allow more accurate predictions of future climate and sea level.
Governance, Participation, and Hegemony: Governing Cananea and the Sonora River Region
Authors: Guarneros-Meza Valeria 
Published: June 2022

Building upon critical debates on network governance in policy making and complementary debates on corporate social responsibility in Mexican mining, a study of the municipality of Cananea and the Sonora River region of Mexico indicates that the (mis)management of information and implementation of participatory mechanisms produced administrative domination in the relationships between government authorities and the mining corporation. Gramscian understandings of hegemony have limitations when dealing with decentered relations beyond state actors. Therefore, Foucauldian concepts of governmentality are useful to complement understandings of power relations in governance arrangements. A partir de los debates críticos sobre la gobernanza de redes en la formulación de políticas y debates complementarios sobre la responsabilidad social corporativa en la minería mexicana, un estudio en torno al municipio de Cananea y la región del río Sonora, en territorio mexicano, argumenta que el (mal) manejo de la información y la implementación de mecanismos participativos produjeron dominación administrativa en las relaciones entre las autoridades gubernamentales y la corporación minera. Las interpretaciones gramscianas de la hegemonía se topan con limitantes cuando se trata de relaciones descentradas que van más allá de los actores estatales. Por lo tanto, los conceptos foucaultianos de la gubernamentalidad son útiles para complementar la comprensión de las relaciones de poder en los acuerdos de gobernanza.

Published: June 2022

Background: Individual studies reporting the clinical outcomes of arthroscopic bony Bankart repair for anterior shoulder instability have reported excellent results but have been limited by their small sample sizes. No systematic review of the literature has been performed examining the clinical outcomes of arthroscopic bony Bankart repair. Purpose: To provide a systematic review of the literature to examine the functional outcomes, recurrence rate, and return to sports rate after arthroscopic bony Bankart repair for anterior instability of the shoulder. Study Design: Systematic review; Level of evidence, 4. Methods: A systematic review of the literature based on the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines was conducted using the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Ovid/Embase, PubMed, and Web of Science. Studies that examined clinical outcomes after arthroscopic bony Bankart repair for anterior shoulder instability were included. Data pertaining to study characteristics and design, patient demographic characteristics, and clinical results, including functional outcomes, recurrence rate, and return to sports, were collected. The results from the studies were pooled, and weighted means and overall rates were calculated. Results: In total, 21 studies with 769 patients were included for analysis. Most patients were male (91.7%), the mean age was 26.7 years (range, 12-71 years), and the mean follow-up was 42.7 months (range, 6-120 months). The most commonly reported functional outcome score was the Rowe score (12 studies), which improved on average from 41.9 preoperatively to 90.8 postoperatively. The rate of recurrent instability was reported by all 21 studies, and the overall recurrence rate was 11.9% (88/738). Return to sports after arthroscopic bony Bankart repair was reported by 11 studies, with a pooled return to sports rate of 91.0% (264/290). Conclusion: Arthroscopic bony Bankart repair for anterior shoulder instability resulted in improvements in functional outcomes, a low rate of recurrent instability, and a high rate of return to sports. Although these findings are extremely promising, future prospective studies with larger sample sizes are needed to further evaluate the clinical outcomes of arthroscopic bony Bankart repair.

Authors: Mustafa Faris Ali , Ali Janan Sabah 
Published: June 2022

Objectives To systematically review architects' literature concerning stair promoting design interventions for reducing sedentary behavior and improving occupational health. Data Sources English language, manuscripts published between 2000 and 2022 in Google scholar, Science Direct, PubMed, CINAHL, and ERIC. Study Inclusion and Exclusion Criteria The criteria for inclusion in this review include; Presence of two words from the searching term in the title, a study conducted by an architect (or at least one architect author), English language, published after 2000, investigate built environment and design features that influence stair use in the building. Data Extraction The data extraction process included; Author (year), country, study design, type of buildings, the population of the study, duration of the study, measured variables (dependent and independent), measurement tool, analysis and outcomes. Data Synthesis Extracted data were synthesized in a tabular format and analytical figures with narratives summary. Result Nine features of the built environment that affect stair use determined from the literature; safety, motivations, appeal and comfort, and legibility were the most common features in the studies, followed by connectivity, building codes, and elevator programming. The good quality of mentioned features positively affects stair use level and vice versa. However, the review also reports a shortage of architects in both practice and research concerning active stair design. Conclusion Stair use is of great importance in increasing physical activity and improving occupational health in the workplace. Architects and designers should pay special attention to the design of staircases and encourage their everyday use by considering the largest number of features that encourage stair use.

Published: June 2022

The mechanical properties of open-hole tensile (OHT) specimens made of 3D-printed continuous carbon-fiber-reinforced thermoplastics (CFRTPs) were investigated. The stacking sequence of the OHT specimens were [0/90]2s, and the as-printed specimens possessed higher porosity (15.19%) than conventional fiber reinforced composites. The OHT tests demonstrated that the tensile modulus and fracture strength of the as-printed specimens exhibited 36.7 ± 0.3 GPa and 226.0 ± 9.0 MPa, respectively. To evaluate the effects of voids on the OHT properties, the 3D-printed CFRTPs were hot-pressed, where fiber orientation and porosity (3.41 ± 0.10%) were improved. Additionally, the tensile modulus was increased to 45.1 ± 0.8 GPa, which is 23% higher than the as-printed specimens, even though the fracture strength were comparable or lower than that of as-printed specimens. To validate such OHT properties, a numerical multiscale model was introduced, with a microscale periodic unit cell (PUC) analysis for determining the effective tensile moduli and mesoscale extended finite element method (XFEM) analysis for OHT properties. In the PUC analysis, we considered a two-scale numerical model including a fiber-resin scale with fiber orientation for effective tensile moduli of a CFRTP filament, and filament-void scale for those of a CFRTP laminate. The porosity and fiber orientation were measured by X-ray computed tomography and digital microscopy observations, and the porosity for the 0° specimen were 14.86%. By substituting the effective tensile moduli of the filament-void scale and those of the fiber-resin scale into the XFEM, respectively, the stress-strain responses of the computational OHT models were found to be in good agreement with those of the experimental results of as-printed and hot-pressed CFRTP, respectively. Both the OHT models showed that the Weibull criterion was satisfied without significant delamination at the failure strain, corresponding to the brittle failure mode due to fiber breakage, which agreed reasonably well with the experimental observations.

Published: June 2022

Objective How faecal haemoglobin concentrations (f-Hb) vary from one round to the next in a colorectal cancer (CRC) screening programme, and relate to colonoscopy findings, are unknown. Our aim was to use data from the first two rounds of the faecal immunochemical test (FIT) based Scottish Bowel Screening Programme (SBoSP) to explore these issues. Methods Faecal haemoglobin concentration (f-Hb) percentiles in the second round were compared with those in the first when the first round yielded a negative FIT result (<80 µg Hb/g faeces), a positive FIT but no colonoscopy, CRC, all adenoma, and a negative colonoscopy. In addition, the outcomes in the first and second rounds were compared. Results The profiles of f-Hb in the first and second rounds differed in (a) those who had had a negative FIT result in the first round and (b) those in whom neoplastic pathology had been found. In contrast, the pattern of difference between profiles in those who had had a negative colonoscopy was very similar to that in those in whom an adenoma had been found. In addition, the risk of CRC being diagnosed in the second round after a negative colonoscopy in the first was 3.0%, not very different to that after a negative test result (4.9%). Conclusions Adenomas may be rarely the cause of a positive FIT result. An alternative explanation as to why these are detected using FIT is required. In addition, a negative colonoscopy for a positive FIT result does not rule out the finding of significant neoplastic pathology in the next round.
When is a sentence manifestly excessive?
Authors: McGorrery Paul , Weatherson Matthew 
Published: June 2022

The most common basis for sentence appeals in Victoria is that the original sentence, or some part of it, was manifestly excessive. To date, no empirical research has been undertaken examining the bounds of manifest excess. When is a sentence not just excessive, but manifestly so? This article fills that gap by examining 100 successful manifest excess sentence appeals between 2014 and 2020, finding that the minimum reduction in a manifestly excessive sentence is about 10 per cent, but that even then, such small reductions are rare and usually in the context of sentences of four years or more.
