RETHINKING THE ANCESTRAL SHRINES IN THE EARLY EMPIRES
Authors: Tian Tian , Wen Zhou 
Published: October 2022

AbstractThis article examines the development of early imperial ancestral shrines by exploring the Liye and Yuelu 嶽麓 Qin slips, along with other excavated texts and historical documents. It argues that Qin Shihuang's 秦始皇 court was the first to specify the regulations for the early imperial ancestral shrine, a crucial part of which was the establishment of the Taishang huang 太上皇 shrines throughout the realm, making the imperial ancestral cult part of the daily local administrative affairs. The Western Han courts largely adopted the regulations stipulated by Qin Shihuang in their commandery and kingdom shrines until late Western Han, when ritual reforms brought the imperial ancestral shrines closer to what Michael Loewe calls the Reformist vision, entailing potential conflicts between bloodlines and the hereditary order of succession. By no means did the early empires simply continue in the stipulations for the imperial ancestral shrines the royal practices of the pre-imperial period; instead, the precedents transmitted to Eastern Han reflected two major ritual reforms, with local ancestral shrines and personal participation by the emperor key subjects of debates.
THE WAY TO THE WHITE TIGER HALL CONFERENCE: EVIDENCE GLEANED FROM THE FORMATION PROCESS OF THE BAIHU TONG
Authors: Jian Shi 
Published: October 2022

AbstractThe White Tiger Hall conference, held in the fourth year (79 c.e.) of the Jianchu 建初 reign in the Eastern Han, was a significant event in both politics and classical learning during and after that time. As the summary of the conference, composed after its conclusion, the Baihu tong 白虎通 is the main resource for investigating the details of this conference. Clarifying the formation process of the Baihu tong is helpful to elicit information regarding the White Tiger Hall conference from the findings recorded in its text. By tracing the history of the court conferences as an administrative institution and considering the particular nature of manuscript compilation, textual genre formats, and literary circulation during the Han, this paper suggests that the Baihu yizou 白虎議奏 referred to in the sources represents the compilation of the positions of the different debaters during the conference by Chunyu Gong 淳于恭 that was eventually sent to Emperor Zhang 章帝 for his approval; the Baihu tongde lun 白虎通德論 would be the corpus of the final rulings that had already been compiled before the conference ended and then edited by Ban Gu 班固. Later, the Emperor instructed his archivists to compose the Baihu tong by condensing the Baihu tongde lun. According to its formation process, the Baihu tong is the work of a collection of experts, rather than a compilation by a single person. Evidence shows that, although Emperor Zhang could weigh in on the court discussions (chengzhi linjue 稱制臨決), he could not ignore the consensus, nor could he simply mandate that the conference participants agree with him. In this regard, the Baihu tong cannot be considered a synthesis of the court's findings, establishing a single court ideology. Rather, it is best to see the text we have now as evidence of vigorous debates among the conference participants, including the Emperor himself and a range of other officials. In conclusion, the best way to uncover the facts about the White Tiger Hall conference via the Baihu tong is to reverse the process of textual formation, to glean information about the probable historical basis for the disputes recorded in the text.
NOTES ON THE “NOTE” (JI 記) IN EARLY ADMINISTRATIVE TEXTS
Authors: Habberstad Luke 
Published: October 2022

AbstractThis article examines ji 記 in received and excavated texts from the late Warring States, Qin, and Western Han periods. In pre-imperial texts, the word rarely appears, and when it does, it usually refers to records of historical events, precedents, or authoritative knowledge, but the word, in contrast to later periods, never means “note” or “letter.” By contrast, Western Han documents from the arid northwest regions contain many examples of texts that self-identify as ji. These ji are best characterized as less formal notes or letters that invited or required exchanges of items or information between people. The articles argues that this incorporation of ji into different kinds of administrative work gave the word a wider and subtler palette of meanings than it apparently enjoyed in the pre-imperial period, judging from the extant sources. The shift is echoed in descriptions of practices at the Western Han imperial court. Thus, a closer look at ji reminds us that administrative texts help us understand not only government operations, but also shifts in manuscript practices during the early empires.
Holocene paleohydrology from alpine lake sediment, Emerald Lake, Wasatch Plateau of central Utah, USA
Authors: Anderson Lesleigh , Skipp Gary , Strickland Laura , Honke Jeff , Havens Jeremy , VanSistine D. Paco 
Published: October 2022

AbstractHolocene sediments at Emerald Lake in central Utah (3090 m asl) document the paleohydroclimatic history of the western Upper Colorado River headwater region. Multi-proxy analyses of sediment composition, mineralogy, and stable isotopes of carbonate (δ18O and δ13C) show changes in effective moisture for the past ca. 10,000 years at millennial to decadal timescales. Emerald Lake originated as a shallow, closed-basin cirque pond during the Early Holocene. By ca. 7000 cal yr BP, higher lake levels and carbonate δ18O values indicate rising effective moisture and higher proportions of summer precipitation continued at least until ca. 5500 cal yr BP when a landslide entered the lake margin. Between ca. 4500 and 2400 cal yr BP dry conditions at Emerald Lake envelop the timing of the ‘Late Holocene Dry Period’ identified at lower elevations. For the past ca. 2500 years, Emerald Lake δ18O values were relatively low, indicating wetter conditions and higher snow input (compared to rain), except for dry periods at ca. 2000 cal yr BP and during the Medieval Climate Anomaly at ca. 1000 and ca. 500 cal yr BP. Results provide a long-term perspective on precipitation extremes that influence regional water supplies from a snow-dominated catchment typical of the predominant source region for the Upper Colorado River.
Some legal actions involving John Taverner, Rose Taverner and Christopher Tye
Authors: Smart Jason , Benham Hugh 
Published: October 2022

AbstractSearches through the plea rolls of the Court of Common Pleas have revealed a number of actions involving, separately, the Tudor composers Christopher Tye and John Taverner, and Taverner’s widow, Rose. These yield the earliest sighting of Taverner so far, the date of his marriage, and two transactions in which he is involved in the transfer of property. Rose is shown defending a claim of debt incurred by John Copley, her previous husband, and attempting to recover debts owed, in one case, to her late son and, in others, to John Taverner. For Tye, no fewer than twenty-seven cases have been discovered, in almost all of which he is the defendant in a claim of debt. They shed light upon his contacts outside music and suggest that his principal places of residence were in Ely from 1547 to at least 1556, and at Doddington after 1561. They also reveal that he was claiming to be a Gentleman of the Chapel Royal much earlier than previously realised. Rose Taverner and Tye also feature in cases brought in the Court of Chancery, one of which reveals the name of Tye’s mother and the town in which she had lived.
AUTOMORPHISMS AND SYMPLECTIC LEAVES OF CALOGERO–MOSER SPACES
Authors: BONNAFÉ CÉDRIC 
Published: October 2022

AbstractWe study the symplectic leaves of the subvariety of fixed points of an automorphism of a Calogero–Moser space induced by an element of finite order of the normalizer of the associated complex reflection group. We give a parametrizationà laHarish-Chandra of its symplectic leaves (generalizing earlier works of Bellamy and Losev). This result is inspired by the mysterious relations between the geometry of Calogero–Moser spaces and unipotent representations of finite reductive groups, which is the theme of another paper, C. Bonnafé [‘Calogero–Moser spaces vs unipotent representations’,Pure Appl. Math. Q., to appear, Preprint, 2021, arXiv:2112.13684].
Iron Hydride in the Earth's Inner Core and Its Geophysical Implications
Authors: Yang Hua , Muir Joshua M. R. , Zhang Feiwu 
Published: October 2022

AbstractHydrogen is potentially a key light element in the Earth's core. Determining the stability of iron hydride is essential for Earth's core mineralogy applications. We investigated the thermal stabilities of a range of Fe‐H binaries at core P‐T conditions. It is concluded that face‐centered cubic phase FeH is stable in the Earth's inner core. The high mobility of hydrogen in the Fe lattice suggests that hydrogen is transferred to a superionic state under the inner core conditions, where the superionic state transfer temperature of H in Fe fcc lattice is ∼500 K higher than that in hcp Fe system. The H concentration in the inner core is estimated to be ∼0.92 wt% to explain its density deficit, this value was further constrained to ∼0.21 wt% by matching the density jump at the inner‐core boundary. H alongside other light elements are required to account for the geophysical observations of the Earth's inner core.
Experimental and simulation study on the delayed release of CO in the initial stage of the low-temperature oxidation of coal

Published: October 2022

AbstractTo investigate the delayed release characteristics of CO gas in the initial stage of the low-temperature oxidation of coal, closed oxygen consumption experiments were conducted on coal samples taken from the Hongqingliang coal mine, and the corresponding relationship between the CO concentration and time in the initial stage of the experimental reaction was analyzed. A physical adsorption model of the macromolecules in coal for O2 and CO was established, and the difference in the competitive adsorption between the CO and O2 gas molecules on the coal surface was analyzed from a microscopic perspective using the grand canonical ensemble Monte Carlo simulation. The results showed a delayed CO release phenomenon in the initial stage of the reaction in all the experiments, and the delayed time of CO release was negatively correlated with the temperature; the relationship between the adsorption amounts of CO and O2 in the molecular structure model of coal was CO > O2. With increasing temperature, the adsorption capacity of the two gases decreased. Under the same conditions, there was competitive adsorption of the mixture of CO and O2 by coal, with the adsorption capacity of CO being much greater than that of O2. The adsorption of CO gas molecules by coal played an inhibitory role in the release of CO gas in the initial oxidation stage. The study results are expected to help understand the CO generation characteristics in the goaf of coal seam working faces and thus prevent coal mine disasters.

AbstractThe aim of the current study was to determine the prevalence of anatomic variant in cephalic arch on preoperative mapping venography and evaluate patency rates and predictors of patency in patients with brachiocephalic fistulas. The prevalence of anatomic variant in cephalic arch was retrospectively evaluated in 1004 consecutive patients who underwent bilateral preoperative mapping venography from July 2006 to December 2018 in a single center. The overall prevalence of anatomic variant in cephalic arch was 17.2% (173/1004). For patency analysis, 128 patients with brachiocephalic fistulas were divided into two groups: a standard anatomy (SA) group (n = 97) and a variant anatomy (VA) group (n = 31). There were no significant differences in clinical characteristics between the two groups. The primary patency rate did not differ significantly between the two groups. The secondary patency rate was significantly (p = 0.009) lower in the VA group than in the SA group. Older age (HR 1.03; 95% CI 1.01–1.05; p = 0.007) was a negative predictor of primary patency, and antiplatelet agent (HR 0.53; 95% CI 0.33–0.84; p = 0.007) and large-diameter cephalic vein (HR 0.52; 95% CI 0.31–0.86; p = 0.012) were positive predictors of primary patency. Older age (HR 1.04; 95% CI 1.01–1.07; p = 0.011) and anatomic variant in cephalic arch (HR 2.9; 95% CI 1.19–7.06; p = 0.019) were negative predictors of secondary patency. The current study provides insight into the clinical significance of anatomic variant in cephalic arch. Anatomic variant in cephalic arch should be considered as a potential risk factor for decreased patency of brachiocephalic fistula during preoperative planning.

Authors: Visch Birgitte M. , de Roos Kees-Peter 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
Background Type I and type IV hypersensitivity can play an important role in phlebology with potential severe consequences for patients and treatment results.
Methods A review of literature was performed for allergic reactions in patients treated for venous insufficiency and venous leg ulcers (VLU), together with a study in the Dutch and European centre for adverse drug reactions. Besides, we performed a survey among 37 Dutch medical hospitals to investigate the incidence of treatment allergies.
Results Hypersensitivity reaction is seen in 46–76% of patient with VLU; about 20% of these reactions are caused by wound dressings products. In 11 centres urticarial and respiratory complaints were seen and 3 systemic allergic reactions in phlebological treatments. In Europe 25 cases of systemic reactions were reported.
Conclusion Patients with VLU with slow healing tendency should undergo allergy tests. Type I hypersensitivity with anaphylactic reaction, also to sclerosing fluid or tumescent, is very rare.

Hemostasis from Bench to Bedside: The History of Three Successful Stories of Translational Medicine
Authors: Tripodi Armando 
Published: October 2022

AbstractLooking at the history of hemostasis, one can easily conclude that most of the achievements we see today have been done through the ingenuity and dedication of scientists, who devoted their efforts to translate the basic concepts behind their hypotheses from the laboratory to the patient bedside. I am personally excited by three of these stories. This article aims to review the history on the development of D-dimer, heparin, and coagulometers, which have been chosen as paradigmatic examples of diagnostic testing, drugs, and measuring devices, respectively. They should be considered among the most successful histories of translational medicine.
News on fake news
Authors: Farkas Johan 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
This article presents a qualitative study of media discourses around fake news, examining 288 news articles from two national elections in Denmark in 2019. It explores how news media construct fake news as a national security threat and how journalists articulate their own role in relation to this threat. The study draws on discourse theory and the concept of logics to critically map how particular meaning ascriptions and subject positions come to dominate over others, finding five logics undergirding media discourses: (1) a logic of anticipation; (2) a logic of exteriorisation; (3) a logic of technologisation; (4) a logic of securitisation; and (5) a logic of pre-legitimation. The article concludes that fake news is constructed as an ‘ultimate other’ in Danish media discourses, potentially contributing to blind spots in both public perception and political solutions. This resonates with previous studies from other geo-political contexts, calling for further cross-national research.
Electronic health record-based facilitation of familial hypercholesterolaemia detection sensitivity of different algorithms in genetically confirmed patients

Published: October 2022

AbstractAimsFamilial hypercholesterolaemia (FH) is a disorder of LDL cholesterol clearance, resulting in increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Recently, we developed a Dutch Lipid Clinic Network (DLCN) criteria-based algorithm to facilitate FH detection in electronic health records (EHRs). In this study, we investigated the sensitivity of this and other algorithms in a genetically confirmed FH population.Methods and resultsAll patients with a healthcare insurance-related coded diagnosis of ‘primary dyslipidaemia’ between 2018 and 2020 were assessed for genetically confirmed FH. Data were extracted at the time of genetic confirmation of FH (T1) and during the first visit in 2018–2020 (T2). We assessed the sensitivity of algorithms on T1 and T2 for DLCN ≥ 6 and compared with other algorithms [familial hypercholesterolaemia case ascertainment tool (FAMCAT), Make Early Diagnoses to Prevent Early Death (MEDPED), and Simon Broome (SB)] using EHR-coded data and using all available data (i.e. including non-coded free text). 208 patients with genetically confirmed FH were included. The sensitivity (95% CI) on T1 and T2 with EHR-coded data for DLCN ≥ 6 was 19% (14–25%) and 22% (17–28%), respectively. When using all available data, the sensitivity for DLCN ≥ 6 was 26% (20–32%) on T1 and 28% (22–34%) on T2. For FAMCAT, the sensitivity with EHR-coded data on T1 was 74% (67–79%) and 32% (26–39%) on T2, whilst sensitivity with all available data was 81% on T1 (75–86%) and 45% (39–52%) on T2. For Make Early Diagnoses to Prevent Early Death MEDPED and SB, using all available data, the sensitivity on T1 was 31% (25–37%) and 17% (13–23%), respectively.ConclusionsThe FAMCAT algorithm had significantly better sensitivity than DLCN, MEDPED, and SB. FAMCAT has the best potential for FH case-finding using EHRs.

Abstract
Anywhere in the alimentary canal, you can find a gastric duplication cyst, a spherical muscle formation lined by mucosal membrane. It is an uncommon example of a group of congenital intestinal abnormalities. Gastric cysts typically develop on the stomach’s greater curvature. A Caucasian 4-year-old boy came in with his family after experiencing colicky central stomach pain for 2 days, along with vomiting for 4 days, decreased oral intake, a temperature of up to 38.5°C and regular bowel movements. A region of the transverse colon with degraded and inflammatory serosa covered in omentum with black necrotic sections was seen during the procedure.
South Africa in Africa, from Apartheid to Post-Apartheid
Authors: Ogunnubi Olusola 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
This chapter examines South Africa’s foreign policy, particularly with regard to Africa, prior to and after 1994 when the country emerged from apartheid. South Africa’s foreign relations date back to the First and Second World Wars, when the country played a crucial role as a key member of the British Empire and the Commonwealth. Using information gathered from secondary material and other relevant archival sources, the chapter captures the patterns, changes, thrusts, and nuances of South Africa’s foreign policy perspective over a period of about sixty years, from the era of “Grand Apartheid” during the late 1950s and 1960s through the presidency of Cyril Ramaphosa in 2020. Critical in this endeavor is the periodization of South Africa’s foreign policy from the apartheid period to the post-apartheid democratic dispensation. This chapter accounts for the evolution of South Africa’s foreign policy in the two political dispensations of apartheid (from the late 1950s to 1993) and post-apartheid (1994 to date). The former is divided into four periods (1958–1966; 1966–1978; 1978–1989; 1989–1993), with the latter also divided into four periods (1994–1999; 1999–2008; 2009–2018; 2018–2020). This enables an historical-evolutionary analysis of the foreign policy of each period and administration and the transition from one period to another while noting the unique characteristics of that period for comparative assessment.
Investigation of murine host sex as a biological variable in epithelial barrier function and muscle contractility in human intestinal organoids

Published: October 2022

AbstractIntestinal failure (IF) occurs when intestinal surface area or function is not sufficient to support digestion and nutrient absorption. Human intestinal organoid (HIO)‐derived tissue‐engineered intestine is a potential cure for IF. Research to date has demonstrated successful HIO transplantation (tHIO) into mice with significant in vivo maturation. An area lacking in the literature is exploration of murine host sex as a biological variable (SABV) in tHIO function. In this study, we investigate murine host SABV in tHIO epithelial barrier function and muscle contractility. HIOs were generated in vitro and transplanted into nonobese diabetic, severe combined immunodeficiency gamma chain deficient male and female mice. tHIOs were harvested after 8–12 weeks in vivo. Reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction and immunohistochemistry were conducted to compare tight junctions and contractility‐related markers in tHIOs. An Ussing chamber and contractility apparatus were used to evaluate tHIO epithelial barrier and muscle contractile function, respectively. The expression and morphology of tight junction and contractility‐related markers from tHIOs in male and female murine hosts is not significantly different. Epithelial barrier function as measured by transepithelial resistance, short circuit current, and fluorescein isothiocyanate‐dextran permeability is no different in tHIOs from male and female hosts, although these results may be limited by HIO epithelial immaturity and a short flux time. Muscle contractility as measured by total contractile activity, amplitude, frequency, and tension is not significantly different in tHIOs from male and female hosts. The data suggest that murine host sex may not be a significant biological variable influencing tHIO function, specifically epithelial barrier maintenance and muscle contractility, though limitations exist in our model.
