Published: June 2022

Bevezetés
A COVID–19 betegség okozta hematológiai eltérések közül a hemosztázis eltérések, citopéniák irodalma bőséges. A vörösvértestek morfológiai eltéréseit azonban még kevésbé vizsgálták. Közleményünkben COVID–19 betegek vérkép és vörösvértest-morfológiai változásait elemeztük.

Módszer
44 igazoltan COVID–19 fertőzött, kórházunkban kezelt (17 fő intenzív osztályon, 27 fő általános COVID-osztályon) beteg vérképének mennyiségi jellemzőit ADVIA 2120i hematológiai automatával határoztuk meg. A vörösvértestek morfológiáját May-Grünwald-Giemsa szerint festett kenetek mikroszkópos vizsgálatával tanulmányoztuk. Mértük a C-reaktív protein szintjét, és az intenzív osztályon kezelt betegeinknél d-dimer- és fibrinogénszint meghatározása is történt.

Eredmények
A betegek 90,9%-ának vérkenetében láttunk vörösvértest-morfológiai eltérést (intenzív osztályon kezelt betegek 88,2%-ában, általános COVID-osztályon kezelt betegek 92,6%-ában). A leggyakoribb vörösvértest-morfológiai elváltozások: pénztekercsképződés (70,6%, illetve 44,4%), basophil punktáció (35,3%, illetve 74,1%), acanthocytosis (17,6%, illetve 55,6%) volt. Ezenkívül stomatocytosist, sphaerocytosist, fragmentocytosist, elliptocytosist és dakryocytákat is megfigyeltünk kisebb számban. Nem találtunk szignifikáns összefüggést a vörösvértest-átmérő variációs koefficiens (RDW) értéke és a betegség kórlefolyásának súlyossága között.

Következtetések
COVID–19 fertőzésben a vörösvértestek morfológiai eltérései igen gyakran megfigyelhetőek a betegség súlyosságától függetlenül. Ezek hátterében a fertőzés okozta nagymértékű oxidatív stressz, a vörösvértestmembrán szerkezeti fehérjéinek és a membrán lipid homeosztázisának sérülései és autoagglutináció állnak.
A Parameterized Runtime Analysis of Evolutionary Algorithms for the Euclidean Traveling Salesperson Problem
Authors: Sutton Andrew , Neumann Frank 
Published: June 2022

We contribute to the theoretical understanding of evolutionary algorithms and carry out a parameterized analysis of evolutionary algorithms for the Euclidean traveling salesperson problem (Euclidean TSP). We exploit structural properties related to the optimization process of evolutionary algorithms for this problem and use them to bound the runtime of evolutionary algorithms. Our analysis studies the runtime in dependence of the number of inner points $k$ and shows that simple evolutionary algorithms solve the Euclidean TSP in expected time O(nk(2k-1)!). Moreover, we show that, under reasonable geometric constraints, a locally optimal 2-opt tour can be found by randomized local search in expected time $O(n2kk!).
Design and Optimization of an Omnidirectional Humanoid Walk: A Winning Approach at the RoboCup 2011 3D Simulation Competition
Authors: MacAlpine Patrick , Barrett Samuel , Urieli Daniel , Vu Victor , Stone Peter 
Published: June 2022

This paper presents the design and learning architecture for an omnidirectional walk used by a humanoid robot soccer agent acting in the RoboCup 3D simulation environment. The walk, which was originally designed for and tested on an actual Nao robot before being employed in the 2011 RoboCup 3D simulation competition, was the crucial component in the UT Austin Villa team winning the competition in 2011. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that robot behavior has been conceived and constructed on a real robot for the end purpose of being used in simulation. The walk is based on a double linear inverted pendulum model, and multiple sets of its parameters are optimized via a novel framework. The framework optimizes parameters for different tasks in conjunction with one another, a little-understood problem with substantial practical significance. Detailed experiments show that the UT Austin Villa agent significantly outperforms all the other agents in the competition with the optimized walk being the key to its success.

Published: June 2022

AbstractThis work reports on the self-healing capabilities of mortar specimens with polyurethane encapsulated in two types of cementitious macro-capsules, by comparison with the performance of mortar specimens using the same healing agent encapsulated in glass capsules, as tested in an inter-laboratory testing campaign following a pre-standard procedure. This comparison was performed with a twofold objective of checking the robustness of such pre-standard procedure for varying types of capsules and testing the effectiveness of a new type of cementitious capsule that has never been used before in durability tests. The testing procedure was developed in the framework of the EU COST Action SARCOS. First, the specimens were pre-cracked via three-point bending followed by an active crack width control technique. Then, the self-healing effect was characterised in terms of water permeability reduction. The cementitious capsules offered equivalent or better performance compared to the glass capsules used in the inter-laboratory testing. The average sealing efficiency for the specimens containing cementitious capsules ranged from 54 to 74%, while for glass macro-capsules it was equal to 56%. It was also observed that when applying the pre-standard procedure to test specimens containing capsules with comparable size and geometric arrangement, the same results were obtained in different repetitions of the test. The results obtained confirmed the possibility to use the cementitious capsules as a valid macro-encapsulation system, offering additional advantages compared to glass capsules. The repeatability of the results corroborated the robustness of the adopted testing procedure, highlighting its potential for further standardisation.

Published: June 2022

AbstractObjective. Among the clinical manifestations of stroke mimics, isolated aphasia is one of the most challenging due to its aetiopathogenic diagnosis. This short communication describes a specific perfusion and brain oscillatory pattern in a challenging case of prolonged isolated aphasia caused by status epilepticus(SE), jointly investigated by computed tomography (CT) perfusion, single‐photon emission computerized tomography (SPECT)/CT and EEG qualitative and quantitative analysis.Methods. We discuss the different patterns of perfusion neuroimaging and EEG between SE and ischaemic stroke or postictal (Todd's)‐related isolated aphasia, and propose these differences as a basis to support the differential diagnosis.Results. The pattern associated with SE was characterized by focal hyperperfusion on CT perfusion maps (the left mean transit time was shorter with >10% asymmetry, and left cerebral blood volume and cerebral blood flow increased or slightly altered, relative to the contralateral side) and SPECT (focal left temporal hyperperfusion), without any early ischaemic signs on non‐enhanced CT, while the EEG showed a predominant left hemispheric slow delta power. The aforementioned perfusion pattern contrasts with postictal epileptic Todd's phenomenon, which is characterized by hypoperfusion on CT perfusion (the mean transit time is prolonged and cerebral blood volume and cerebral blood flow are reduced, compared to the contralateral hemisphere) and SPECT (focal hypoperfusion), not restricted to the specific vascular territories.Significance. CT perfusion patterns may add valuable information to support the differential diagnosis of status epilepticus, rather than acute ischaemic stroke or postictal Todd's phenomenon, in cases with challenging symptoms of prolonged isolated aphasia.
Maupassant, roi du Nouveau Décaméron
Authors: Benhamou Noëlle 
Published: June 2022

Cet article se propose de montrer la place importante de Guy de Maupassant dans Le Nouveau Décaméron. Lui qui avait été jugé par la critique le meilleur conteur des Soirées de Médan avec sa nouvelle « Boule de suif », publie onze nouvelles sur les femmes, le mariage, l’adultère et la prostitution dans les volumes de Catulle Mendès parus 1884 à 1887. Nous étudions aussi l’image que les entre-textes donnent de l’auteur. Le lecteur découvre un écrivain courtois, mondain, qui aime les femmes et est aussi galant et séducteur. Finalement, Maupassant, couronné par Mendès roi de la sixième journée, avec Boule de suif comme reine, est le plus important de cette œuvre collective. Cependant, son portrait fictif présent dans les volumes du Nouveau Décaméron a contribué à donner une image stéréotypée de Maupassant.
Entre vice et vertu : la discrète présence d’Ernest d’Hervilly dans Le Nouveau Décaméron
Authors: De Palacio Marie-France 
Published: June 2022

Dans Le Nouveau Décaméron, Ernest d’Hervilly n’est désigné que deux fois pour raconter une histoire. Cette présence discrète, pour un conteur renommé et proche de Catulle Mendès, ne laisse pas de surprendre. En outre, pourquoi être allé chercher « Désirs d’ange » et « Night Bell » dans le corpus déjà considérable de ses recueils publiés ? À y regarder de plus près, les deux nouvelles sont pourtant très représentatives de la manière et de la personnalité de d’Hervilly. Ce diptyque, dont les deux volets contrastent violemment, reflète son talent de conteur, sa capacité à passer d’un genre littéraire à l’autre, son intérêt pour d’autres univers culturels et géographiques. En considérant aussi bien ces deux textes en soi que leurs paratextes lors des intermèdes entre devisants, le présent article souhaite esquisser le portrait d’un écrivain réservé et complexe, oscillant entre mélancolie et farce, sous l’étiquette un peu réductrice de « fantaisiste ».

Aim: We evaluated the reduction of mechanical complications (MCs) in circumferential minimally invasive spinal surgery (c-MIS) to treat adult spinal deformity (ASD) using lateral lumbar interbody fusion and a percutaneous pedicle screw.
Methods: Patients with ASD who underwent c-MIS with a follow-up period of > 24 months were enrolled. Groups were as follows: c-MIS using 5.5 mm rods (P group), c-MIS using a 5.5 mm single rod with cement augmentations in the upper instrumented vertebra (UIV)/UIV + 1 (B group), c-MIS using 6 mm rods (6P group), and multi-rod c-MIS (M group). Terminal rod contour was optimized to prevent proximal junctional kyphosis (PJK) in the P, 6P, and M groups. Patients were divided into an MC group, consisting of 68 patients with MCs, and a non-MC group, consisting of 78 patients without MCs. We examined various spinopelvic- and implant-related parameters between the groups.
Results: Overall, 146 patients with ASD who underwent c-MIS were included. The incidence of PJK was significantly lower in the P and M groups than in the B group, and rod fracture was significantly lower in the M group than in the B and P groups. In the MC group, preoperative PT, postoperative PI-LL, and PSA were significantly larger than those in the non-MC group. Use of the 5.5 mm single rod and postoperative PI-LL were significant risk factors for MCs.
Conclusion: The complication incidence decreased with improvements in surgical techniques and measures. Use of the 5.5 mm single rod and postoperative PI-LL were significant risk factors for MCs.

Nietzche contra o mundo real
Authors: Fernandes Mafer , Ferraz Cláudio 
Published: June 2022

Este ensaio aborda de forma breve três espaço-problemas geográficos clarejados por Nietzsche. O primeiro é o contraponto de Nietzsche para o "mundo real": o " mundo aparente". O segundo é uma elaboração política não-totalizante do primeiro, o que Deleuze chamou de "o fogo local de Heráclito." O terceiro, a Europa, o espaço a partir do qual Nietzsche escreveu e contra o qual Nietzsche se opôs, um espaço melhor abordado através de uma leitura transcrítica e pós-colonial.
Empathic impacts of adolescent-focused storytelling interventions: A protocol for a scoping review
Authors: O'Leary Sarah , Scheidt Leticia , McMahon Jennifer 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
Adolescence represents an important, transitional period for social and emotional development, which contributes to conceptualisations of the self-story or narrative identity. Storytelling is a mechanism that contributes to identity formation and is intrinsically connected to social and emotional learning due to its relational context. Social and emotional learning programs are well-documented in the literature regarding their effectiveness. However, findings that are specific to empathy outcomes from interventions that center storytelling are not well established. This review aims to contribute to the research by providing a scoping review of key findings for empathic outcomes of storytelling interventions for adolescents. This scoping review will follow the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) framework for scoping reviews, and the research stages as defined by Arkey and O’Malley, and Levac and colleagues. A formal search strategy will run across seven databases, including ASSIA, Eric (EBSCO), ERIC (ProQuest), PsycINFO, PsycArticles, and Scopus. This search will be supplemented with hand-searching in Google Scholar, and grey literature will be identified using ProQuest Dissertations & Theses. Studies (published in English) from 1997 onwards will be included based on the following criteria: 1) An adolescent population (10-24 years old), 2) Storytelling interventions or narrative exchanges are the intervention of study, 3) Empathy is the key outcome. Studies will be excluded if they are published before 1997, written in languages other than English, focus on other interventions, populations, and outcomes other than empathy. The selection process will be presented in a narrative format and a PRISMA flow diagram. Results will be reported using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA-ScR). Ultimately, the validity and effectiveness of storytelling interventions for promoting empathy will be synthesised.
A Priori Analysis on Deep Learning of Filtered Reaction Rate
Authors: Shin Junsu , Hansinger Maximilian , Pfitzner Michael , Klein Markus 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
A filtered reaction rate model driven by deep learning is proposed and analyzed a priori in the context of large eddy simulation (LES). A deep artificial neural network (ANN) is trained on the explicitly filtered reaction rate source term extracted from a database comprised of turbulent premixed planar flame direct numerical simulations (DNSes) employing single-step chemistry. The filtered DNS database to be used for the training of the ANN covers a wide range of turbulence intensities and LES filter widths. An interpretation technique of deep learning is employed to search the principal input parameters in the high dimensional database to alleviate the model complexity. The deep learning filtered reaction rate model is then tested on the unseen filtered planar flames featuring untrained turbulence intensities and LES filter widths, in conjunction with another canonical type of flame configuration that it has not been trained on. The deep learning filtered reaction rate model achieves good agreement with the filtered DNS results and also provides a quantitatively accurate surrogate model when compared to existing algebraic models and other combustion models from the literature.
Order statistics and record values moments from the Topp-Leone Lomax distribution with applications to entropy

Published: June 2022

Abstract

In this paper, we derive exact expressions, as well as recurrence relations, for single and product moments of order statistics (OSs) and record values of the Topp-Leone Lomax (TLLo) distribution proposed by Oguntunde et al. [29] (Wireless Personal Comm., 109, 349-360, 2019). Moreover, we study the L-moments of this distribution. Also, we estimate the parameters of the TLLo distribution through the L-moments and compare to other models. We fit flood level data to the TLLo distribution because Okorie and Nadarajah [30] (Wireless Personal Comm., 115, 589-596, 2020) have shown that the TLLo distribution may be used to model datasets other than airborne communication transceiver data used by Oguntunde et al. [29]. Finally, we reveal a relationship between the entropy and the upper and lower record values, as well as OSs .
A Realist Review Protocol on Communications for Community Engagement in Maternal and Newborn Health Programmes in Low- and Middle-Income Countries
Authors: Dada Sara A , De Brún Aoife , Banda Esther Namwaba , Bhattacharya Sanghita , Mutunga Zaccheous , Gilmore Brynne 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
BackgroundIncreasingly, community engagement (CE) has been implemented across health interventions, including for maternal and newborn health (MNH). This may take various forms, from participatory women’s groups to community health committees to public advocacy days. While research suggests a positive influence of CE on MNH outcomes, such as mortality or care-seeking behaviour, there is a need for further evidence on the processes of CE in different settings in order to inform the future development and implementation of CE across programmes. Communication, in particular, is an integral component of CE serving as a link between the programme and community. The aim of the realist review described in this protocol is to understand how, why, to what extent, and for whom CE contributes to intended and unintended outcomes in MNH programming, specifically the communication components of CE.MethodsRealist review methodology will be used to provide a causal understanding of what communication for CE interventions in MNH programming work, for whom, to what extent, why, and how. This will be done by developing and refining programme theories on communications for CE in MNH through a systematic review of the literature and engaging key experts for input and feedback. By extrapolating context-mechanism-outcome configurations, this review seeks to understand how certain contexts trigger or inhibit specific mechanisms, and what outcomes this interaction generates when communication in CE interventions is used in MNH programming.DiscussionA realist philosophy is well-suited to address the aims of this study because of the complex nature of CE. The review findings will be used to inform a realist evaluation of CE for an MNH programme in case study settings in order to ascertain transferable findings that can inform and guide engagement activities in various settings. Findings will also be shared with stakeholders and experts involved in the consultative processes of the review (through workshops or policy briefs) in order to ensure the relevance of these findings to policy and practice.RegistrationThis realist review protocol is registered with PROSPERO (CRD42022293564).
