BackgroundThe method of operation and the range of resection for Siewert II adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (AEG) remain controversial. This study aims to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and short-term postoperative effect of total laparoscopic versus laparoscopic-assisted transabdominal posterior mediastinal digestive tract reconstruction in the treatment of Siewert II AEG.MethodsTotal laparoscopic or laparoscopic-assisted gastrointestinal reconstruction through abdominal posterior mediastinum was performed in 108 patients with Siewert II AEG from October 2017 to February 2019. This study evaluated the loss of intraoperative blood, the number of lymph nodes, the marginal of the tumor, short-term postoperative complications (within 30 days), the rate of survival at follow-up, and the economic cost, feasibility, and effect of short-term postoperative recovery for patients who received these two operations.ResultThere were no significant differences in general data between the total laparoscopic group and the laparoscopic-assisted group (P &gt; 0.05). However, the total laparoscopic group cost more time on the surgical procedure and digestive tract reconstruction, lost less intraoperative blood, and had more mediastinal lymph nodes compared with the laparoscopic-assisted group (P &lt; 0.05). The total laparoscopic group was significantly better than the laparoscopic-assisted group compared with the short-term postoperative recovery indexes, such as the first exhaust time, the first defecation time, the first fluid time, the first semi-fluid diet time, the postoperative hospital stay, and other postoperative recovery indexes (P &lt; 0.05). In addition, there were no significant differences in postoperative complications, postoperative pathological indexes, the recurrence rate, and mortality between the total laparoscopic group and laparoscopic-assisted group (P &gt; 0.05).ConclusionsThe safety, feasibility, and short-term effect of total laparoscopic transabdominal posterior mediastinal digestive tract reconstruction in the treatment of Siewert II AEG were better than those for the laparoscopic-assisted group.

PurposeBrainstem hemorrhage is usually treated conservatively with medication and has high mortality and morbidity rates. Stereotactic aspiration can directly and microinvasively draw out the hemorrhage within a narrow space in the brainstem, thus promoting quick recovery and potentially saving the life of the patient. This study was conducted to investigate the effect of stereotactic aspiration on patients with brainstem hemorrhage in a case series.Materials and methodsA total of 42 patients with brainstem hemorrhage were enrolled for stereotactic aspiration of the brain hemorrhage, and another 30 patients with brainstem hemorrhage were enrolled for conservative treatment. The clinical and imaging data were analyzed and compared.ResultsStereotactic aspiration was successful in all patients (100%), with immediate elimination of hematoma in the brainstem. In five patients with the hemorrhage extending to the fourth ventricle (n = 1) and basal ganglia (n = 4), the hemorrhage was eliminated, resulting in good outcomes. However, four patients died of multiple organ failure after aspiration, resulting in a mortality rate of 9.5%. One week after surgery, the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score ranged from 3 to 11 (mean 5.9 ± 2.3). At 1-month follow-up, 4 patients died, and 36 patients survived, with the GCS score ranging between 3 and 15 (mean 8.6 ± 2.1), which was significantly (P &lt; 0.01) higher than that before surgery. The Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score was 5 before treatment, 5 (4.4, 6) at 1 week after surgery, and 5 (4, 6) at 1 month. In the conservative group, 16 (53.3%) patients died during hospitalization. The GCS score was 0–6 (mean 2.3 ± 1.1), which was significantly (P &lt; 0.05) worse than at admission or of that in the aspiration group at 1 month. The mRS score at 1 month was 6 (5, 6), which was significantly (P &lt; 0.05) worse than that in the aspiration group.ConclusionStereotactic aspiration for brainstem hemorrhage as an approach of microinvasiveness may be effective in evacuating brainstem hemorrhage and may promote quick recovery of the patient, resulting in better clinical outcomes.

Published: August 2022

BackgroundRobotic rectal cancer surgery has proven to be a viable alternative to laparoscopic surgery in treating rectal cancer. This study assessed the short-term operative measures of robotic versus laparoscopic surgery.MaterialData was obtained retrospectively from July 2019 to November 2021. Patient demographics, pre-and post-operative features, initial bowel movement, length of hospital stay, and short-term postoperative outcomes such as harvested lymph node, sepsis, Clavien–Dindo Classification, and cost were evaluated.ResultsA total of 155 patients were treated for colorectal cancer, with 64 receiving robotic surgery and 91 receiving laparoscopic surgery. According to the Clavien–Dindo classification, there is a significant P &lt; 0.05 between robotic and laparoscopic rectal surgery, with robotic having fewer patients in grade III-IV than laparoscopic. Despite this, laparoscopic surgery is associated with more sepsis patients (P &lt; 0.05), and harvested lymph nodes are likewise associated with significant results.ConclusionWith respect to post-operative complication and cost analysis, our finding imply that robotic rectal resection achieves better-quality short-term outcome but more costly than laparoscopic as well as Clavien–Dindo classification plays a crucial role in assessing postoperative rectal cancer complications and considerably impacts the quality of life.

Taxonomy in Bufonidae witnessed notable transformations. Bufotes viridis and Epidalea calamita, previously included in genus Bufo, were relocated in other genera, while the genus Bufo was restricted to members of the earlier Bufo bufo group. On the other hand, Bufo bufo sensu lato now includes four species: Bufo bufo, Bufo spinosus, Bufo verrucosissimus and Bufo eichwaldi. In this study, we examined three species of three Bufonidae genera (B. spinosus, B. viridis and E. calamita) by conventional (C-banding and Ag-NOR staining) and molecular (in situ hybridization with probes for telomeric repeats and rDNA loci, and genomic in situ hybridization (GISH)) cytogenetic methods. C-banding patterns are reported for the first time for B. spinosus and E. calamita populations from Iberian Peninsula and for B. viridis from Greece, and reveal several differences with the reported C-banded karyotypes described for other European populations of these species. Silver staining shows size heteromorphisms of the signals at the Nucleolar Organizing Region (NOR). By contrast, FISH with ribosomal probes only reveal size heteromorphism of rDNA sequences in E. calamita, suggesting that the differences observed after silver staining in B. spinosus and B. viridis should be attributed to differences in chromosomal condensation and/or gene activity rather than to differences in the copy number for ribosomal genes. Regarding telomeric repeats, E. calamita is the only species with interstitial telomeric sequences (ITS) located on centromeric regions, probably originated by accumulation of telomeric sequences in the centromeric heterochromatin. Finally, we analyzed the composition and distribution of repetitive sequences by genome in situ hybridization. These experiments reveal the accumulation of repetitive sequences in centromeric regions of the three species, although these sequences are not conserved when species from different genera are compared.

Dianella ensifolia is a perennial herb with thickened rhizome and is widely distributed in tropical and subtropical regions of Asia, Australia, and the Pacific islands. This plant has the potential to be used as a source of herbal medicine. This study investigated further phytochemistry and tyrosinase inhibitory effect of some constituents isolated from D. ensifolia. Four new flavans, (2S)-4’-hydroxy-6,7-dimethoxyflavan (1), (2S)-3’,4’-dihydroxy-7-methoxy-8-methylflavan (2), (2S)-2’-hydroxy-7-methoxyflavan (3), and (2S,1′S)-4-hydroxy-4-(7-methoxy-8-methylchroman-2-yl)-cyclohex-2-enone (4), together with 67 known compounds, including 10 flavans (5–14), 5 flavanones (15–19), 3 flavone (20–22), 5 chalcones (23–27), 3 chromones (28–30), 15 aromatics (31–45), 7 phenylpropanoids (46–52), one lignan (53), 7 steroids (54–60), one monoterpene (61), one diterpene (62), 4 triterpenes (63–66), a carotenoid (67), 2 alkaloids (68 and 69), and 2 fatty acids (70 and 71) were isolated from D. ensifolia. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of physical and spectroscopic data analyses. Moreover, compounds 1–4, 8, 10–15, 20, 21, and 41 were evaluated for their mushroom tyrosinase inhibitory effect. Compounds 11 and 14 strongly inhibited mushroom tyrosinase activity with IC50 values of 8.6 and 14.5 μM, respectively.
Voices from the War

Published: August 2022

In August 1940, three New Zealand radio broadcasters set sail on an army troop ship from Wellington. They were bound for Egypt, where the New Zealand armed forces were part of the British Empire’s push to drive the German and Italian armies out of North Africa and the Middle East. With them was a mobile recording van, equipped to capture on lacquer discs the voices and sounds of New Zealanders at war, and send those re-cordings back home for radio broadcasts on the other side of the world.
For the next five years, the Mobile Broadcasting Unit recorded interviews and reports about the fighting and the day-to-day business of war, as well as thousands of simple messages home from servicemen, and a few women. Today, the 1600 surviving Mobile Unit discs form part of the sound archives of Radio New Zealand, held by audiovisual archive Ngā Taonga Sound & Vision.
In this article the author will outline the history of the Mobile Units and the context in which they worked. She will also describe on-going work to identify the speakers heard in their recordings and make this collection more discoverable and accessible to researchers. Ngā Taonga Sound & Vision is currently digitising the collection and preservation archivist Sandy Ditchburn will describe some of the challenges she has encoun-tered in capturing sound from the 80-year-old lacquer discs.

Published: August 2022

The motivation of this research is the existence of fraud that occurs in the financial reporting of entities both abroad and in Indonesia. This investigation aims to explain the detection of financial statements that have the potential to contain fraud using the Fraud Diamond approach. The sampling method in this research is purposive sampling for companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. The sample consists of 93 companies during the 2017-2019 financial statement period from the manufacturing industry. The analysis of research is a multiple linear regression model with a quantitative approach. Based on statistical studies, the financial target variable significantly positively affects the potential for fraud. External pressure has a significant negative effect on the potential for financial fraud. In contrast, financial stability, the nature of the industry, effective monitoring, rationalization, and capability have no effect on the potential for financial fraud.

Development of Tourmaline-Bearing Lithologies of the Peraluminous Tusaquillas Composite Granitic Batholith, NW Argentina: Evidence from Quartz and Tourmaline

Published: August 2022

ABSTRACT
Textural and chemical characteristics of quartz and tourmaline found in tourmaline-rich orbicules, greisens, pegmatites, and tourmalinite segregations associated with the peraluminous leucogranitic Tusaquillas Batholith Complex of northwest Argentina exhibit both magmatic and hydrothermal features. Imaging of quartz by optical cathodoluminescence and scanning electron microscopy cathodoluminescence shows three stages of development. Stage-1 quartz, considered magmatic, develops as large grains in pegmatites that have optical cathodoluminescence homogeneity; as anhedral relict grains partially replaced by stage-2 hydrothermal quartz in tourmalinite segregations, orbicules, and greisens; and as idiomorphic grains with irregularly spaced oscillatory zoning seen in scanning electron microscopy cathodoluminescence in orbicules. Stage-2 quartz, interpreted as hydrothermal, partially replaces stage-1 quartz and generation-1 tourmaline in most lithologies. Stage-3 quartz, a late hydrothermal stage, occurs in all lithologies as weakly luminescing quartz in healed quartz fractures with abundant fluid inclusions, commonly associated with the crystallization of irregular late-stage tourmaline.
Multiple generations of tourmaline span magmatic to hydrothermal phases of development. In all lithologies, generation-1 tourmaline is compositionally similar: highly aluminous (range of average values of Altotal = 6.31–6.95 apfu), markedly Fe- and X□-rich (XMg = 0.01–0.17, X□= 0.21–0.51), and having variable F and WO (F = 0.00–0.57 apfu, WO = 0.00–0.40). Generation-1 tourmaline is interpreted as magmatic with compositions reflecting the chemical environment of the host lithologies and with compositional zoning patterns characteristic of both closed- and open-system behavior, possibly related to the transition to subsolidus conditions. Similar to generation-1 tourmaline, later-stage generations-2 and -3 tourmaline compositions are highly aluminous (range of average values of Altotal = 6.38–6.79 apfu), markedly Fe- and X□-rich (XMg = 0.00–0.20, X□= 0.28–0.40), and variably F- and WO-enriched (F = 0.07–0.57 apfu, WO = 0.00–0.31), but notably poorer in Ca and Ti (&lt;0.01 apfu). The later-stage tourmaline is considered to have developed during the subsolidus hydrothermal conditions. External chemical contributions to tourmaline compositions from the country rocks appear to be minor to nonexistent. The X-site and W-site occupancies of the late-generation tourmaline implies subsolidus invasive alkaline, saline aqueous fluids with high Na but minimal Ca contents derived from the crystallizing leucogranites and related rocks across the solidus-to-subsolidus transition.
EEG evidence that morally relevant autobiographical memories can be suppressed

Published: August 2022

AbstractRemembering unpleasant events can trigger negative feelings. Fortunately, research indicates that unwanted retrieval can be suppressed to prevent memories from intruding into awareness, improving our mental state. The current scientific understanding of retrieval suppression, however, is based mostly on simpler memories, such as associations between words or pictures, which may not reflect how people control unpleasant memory intrusions in everyday life. Here, we investigated the neural and behavioural dynamics of suppressing personal and emotional autobiographical memories using a modified version of the Think/No-Think task. We asked participants to suppress memories of their own past immoral actions, which were hypothesised to be both highly intrusive and motivating to suppress. We report novel evidence from behavioural, ERP, and EEG oscillation measures that autobiographical memory retrieval can be suppressed and suggest that autobiographical suppression recruits similar neurocognitive mechanisms as suppression of simple laboratory associations. Suppression did fail sometimes, and EEG oscillations indicated that such memory intrusions occurred from lapses in sustained control. Importantly, however, participants improved at limiting intrusions with repeated practice. Furthermore, both behavioural and EEG evidence indicated that intentional suppression may be more difficult for memories of our morally wrong actions than memories of our morally right actions. The findings elucidate the neurocognitive correlates of autobiographical retrieval suppression and have implications for theories of morally motivated memory control.

Abstract
Large inner dust gaps in transition disks are frequently posited as evidence of giant planets sculpting gas and dust in the disk, or the opening of a gap by photoevaporative winds. Although the former hypothesis is strongly supported by the observations of planets and deep depletions in gas within the gap in some disks, many T Tauri stars hosting transition disks accrete at rates typical for an undepleted disk, raising the question of how gap opening occurs in these objects. We thus present an analysis of the structure of the transition disk around the T Tauri star DM Tau, which is strongly accreting (∼10−8.3
M
⊙ yr−1) and turbulent (α = 0.078 ± 0.02). Using the Dust And LInes thermochemical code, we fit disk models to simultaneously reproduce the accretion rate, high level of turbulence, the gas traced by ALMA Band 6 observations of 12CO, 13CO, and C18O J = 2–1 lines, and the observed dust emission from the millimeter continuum and spectral energy distribution. We find a shallow depletion in gas surface density of ∼10 relative to the outer disk and a gas-rich inner disk that is consistent with the observations. The planet mass of <1 M
Jup implied by the gap depth is in tension with predictions for dust trapping in a highly viscous disk, which requires a more massive planet of ∼10 M
Jup. Photoevaporative models including a dead zone can qualitatively reproduce some features of the DM Tau disk, but still struggle to explain the high accretion rates and the observed millimeter-continuum flux.
