Published: November 2022

AbstractFor over five decades, studies in the field of chemical physics and physical chemistry have primarily aimed to understand the quantum properties of molecules. However, high-resolution rovibronic spectroscopy has been limited to relatively small and simple systems because translationally and rotationally cold samples have not been prepared in sufficiently large quantities for large and complex systems. In this study, we present high-resolution rovibronic spectroscopy results for large gas-phase molecules, namely, free-base phthalocya-nine (FBPc). The findings suggest that buffer-gas cooling may be effective for large molecules introduced via laser ablation. High-resolution electronic spectroscopy, combined with other experimental and theoretical studies, will be useful in understanding the quantum properties of molecules. These findings also serve as a guide for quantum chemical calculations of large molecules.

Published: November 2022

AbstractTraditional decoupling methods in real‐time simulation of complex power systems are poor in stability and unsatisfactory in use. In order to solve this problem, an improved decoupling method based on a terminal resistor is proposed. By paralleling a fixed‐value resistor and inverse‐paralleling a controlled current source in the traditional ideal transformer interface, the stability is greatly improved and the range of its application is broadened. Then, the value range of resistance is deduced theoretically. Furthermore, this interface is extended to the multi‐point decoupling systems; the different terminal resistances in multiple interfaces under the constraints of stability and accuracy are designed. Finally, the typical single‐point and multi‐point decoupling systems are constructed on the Rt‐lab real‐time simulation platform. The simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed decoupling method and indicate that the design of terminal resistances is correct either in single‐point decoupling systems or in multi‐point decoupling systems.
Robust frequency constrained uc using data driven logistic regression for island power systems
Authors: Rajabdorri Mohammad , Lobato Enrique , Sigrist Lukas 
Published: November 2022

AbstractIn the current practice of short‐term power scheduling, online power reserves are used to address generation mismatches and contingencies. Neither online inertia nor the speed of the committed units is considered in the scheduling process. With the increasing injection of uncertain renewable energy sources, this practice is starting to fall short, especially in island power systems, where the primary frequency response is already scarce, and any contingency leads to potentially poor frequency response. This paper introduces a data‐driven linear constraint to improve the post‐fault frequency quality in island power systems. A coherent initial data‐set is obtained by simulating the system frequency response of single outages. Then logistic regression is employed as a predictive analytic procedure to differentiate the acceptable and unacceptable incidents. To compare the conventional methods with the proposed approach and also to handle the uncertain nature of renewable energy generation, an adaptive robust unit commitment formulation is utilized. Results for the island power system of La Palma show that depending on the chosen cut‐point on the logistic regression estimation the proposed method can improve the frequency response quality of the system while reducing the operation costs.
Non‐isolated high step‐up DC–DC converter based on switched‐inductor switched‐capacitor network for photovoltaic application
Authors: Farahani Hossein Jalali , Rezvanyvardom Mahdi , Mirzaei Amin 
Published: November 2022

AbstractA high step‐up non‐isolated DC–DC converter based on a switched‐inductor/switched‐capacitor network is proposed in this paper. The proposed converter takes advantage of both active and passive switched inductor cells. Inductors L1 and L2 can be connected in series to increase the voltage gain. Furthermore, the conduction losses of the proposed converter are low which leads to an increase in its efficiency. The proposed converter takes advantage of the voltage multiplier at the output. As a result, the voltage across all output capacitors is half the output voltage. Moreover, the switched capacitor network in the proposed converter can be extended to achieve higher voltage gain. The comparison is done with other similar topologies in detail to prove the effectiveness of the proposed converter. Operation modes, design procedures, and the control scheme are analyzed. A 200‐W DC–DC converter is implemented and tested. The experimental results confirm the theoretical analysis and its successful operation. The maximum efficiency is above 94%.

Published: November 2022

AbstractA 57-year-old man presented with a pigmented papule, 0.4 cm in diameter, on the left lower eyelid. Skin biopsy revealed a basal cell carcinoma, which was excised through a wide excision followed by a full-thickness skin graft (FTSG). Two weeks after the surgery, an erythematous nodule developed in the lower margin of the graft recipient site. The nodule size increased rapidly over 2 weeks, becoming dome-shaped with a central hyperkeratotic plug. A diagnosis of keratoacanthoma (KA) was made, and surgical excision was performed. Histological findings revealed a large, well-differentiated squamous tumor with a central keratin-filled crater and buttress. The human papilloma virus (HPV) genotyping results were negative.Risk factors for KA include trauma, old age, exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation, immunosuppression, and HPV infection. KA has most often been reported to develop at the donor site. Although the pathogenesis of KA is unclear, trauma is believed to act as a second insult to a preceding oncogenic insult, such as exposure to UV radiation, resulting in a koebnerization. Herein, we report a case of solitary KA at a FTSG recipient site. This report presents information that may provide guidance during dermatologic surgeries.

Published: November 2022

Abstract
Background Hypochondroplasia is a skeletal dysplasia caused by activating
pathologic variants of FGFR3. The N540K variant accounts for
60–70% of reported cases and is associated with severe
manifestations. Here, we analyze the clinical manifestations and outcomes of
Korean patients with hypochondroplasia harboring the FGFR3 N540K
variant.
Methods Medical records of 20 unrelated patients with genetically
confirmed N540K-related hypochondroplasia were retrospectively reviewed. All
individuals were diagnosed with hypochondroplasia by Sanger sequencing for
FGFR3, or target-panel sequencing for skeletal dysplasia. The
effectiveness of growth hormone therapy was analyzed in 16 patients treated with
growth hormones.
Results Among 20 patients (7 men, 13 women), the mean age at first visit
was 3.5±1.0 years, and the mean follow-up duration was 6.8±0.6
years. The patients presented with a short stature and/or short limbs.
Genu varum, macrocephaly, and developmental delay were observed in 11
(55.0%), 9 (45.0%), and 5 (25.0%) patients,
respectively. Of the 12 patients who underwent neuroimaging, five
(41.7%) showed abnormal findings (one required operation for obstructive
hydrocephalus). Among 16 growth-hormone-treated patients (two were
growth-hormone deficient), the increase in height standard deviation scores was
significant after a mean 5.4±0.7 years of treatment (+0.6
and+1.8 using growth references for healthy controls and achondroplasia
children, respectively). Four patients underwent surgical limb lengthening at a
mean age of 8.8±3.3 years.
Conclusions Neurodevelopmental abnormalities are frequently observed in
patients with N540K-related hypochondroplasia. Close monitoring of skeletal
manifestations and neurodevelopmental status is necessary for
hypochondroplasia.

AbstractAnemia is a common feature in multiple myeloma and is multifactorial. A 52-year-old lady was admitted to our hospital with complaints of fatigue, exertional dyspnea, paresthesia, and a recent-onset confusion state. Fundus examination revealed features of hyperviscosity. The patient received 2 units of packed red blood cell transfusion (PRBC) before the present hospital admission. Laboratory investigations revealed severe anemia and thrombocytopenia. The M-protein was 5.8 g/dL. Bone marrow showed sheets of plasma cells. Immunofixation electrophoresis confirmed the presence of an IgAλ band. FISH was positive for IgH-FGFR3 fusion. The investigations confirmed multiple myeloma R-ISS stage III. The patient was immediately started on CyBorD chemotherapy regimen. The patient had indirect hyperbilirubinemia and symptomatic anemia. Initial testing of the patient's sample showed blood grouping discrepancy with DCT, ICT, and auto control positive. The symptomatic anemia persisted requiring PRC transfusions. Further antibody study revealed the presence of anti-Jka antibody—a warm IgG antibody and cold antibody. Subsequently, the patient received Jka antigen-negative B-positive compatible PRBC transfusions and the hemoglobin normalized. Our patient had transfusion-associated alloimmunization along with hyperviscosity. The timely recognition and early institution of plasmapheresis and myeloma-directed therapy along with transfusion of compatible Jka antigen-negative PRBC lead to rapid improvement.

Abstract
Introduction Acute adverse drug reactions (ADRs) in day-care chemotherapy are not uncommon and are easily manageable on most occasions. However, sometimes they may lead to untoward events. It is paramount to document and analyze such events in contemporary medical oncology practice for the best utilization and planning of available personnel and resources.
Objective Our objective was to analyze the acute ADRs occurring in day-care cancer chemotherapy settings.
Materials and Methods ADRs reported in a day-care cancer chemotherapy setting, during the administration of chemotherapy, were prospectively observed and analyzed from 01 June 2020 to 31 December 2020. ADRs were classified into anaphylactic, allergic, and gastrointestinal (GI) (nausea/vomiting/heart burns/chest tightness). All ADRs were graded according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Version 5.0. Suspected drugs, time to reaction, and corrective measures were analyzed.
Results During the study period, a total of 10,120 sessions of day-care chemotherapy were administered. ADRs were noticed in 118 cases (1.18%). Among the reported ADRs, the mean and median age of the patients in this study was 52 years (21–88). Women outnumbered men (n = 81, 68.64% vs n = 37, 31.36%). Anaphylactic reactions (50.92%) were the most common followed by allergic (25.15%) and GI reactions (23.93%). No grade IV reaction was observed. Oxaliplatin-induced allergic reactions (n = 28, 23.73%) were noted most frequently. In majority of sessions (n = 93, 78.81%), the same chemotherapy regimen was readministered and completed uneventfully after the administration of antihypersensitivity medications.
Conclusion Serious ADRs are rare in current day-care chemotherapy administration. Most acute ADRs were of mild grade and successfully managed with antihypersensitivity medication.

Published: November 2022

Abstract
Background Traditional classroom lectures have been the backbone of the education system for a long time although this method is most effective but it may not always permit active engagement with the matter and learn it. In contrast, active teaching formats such as fishbowl and snowball techniques allow students to participate in the task of attaining knowledge by shifting the target from preceptor to student, thereby allowing a better understanding of the concepts.
Methodology A total of 80 final-year undergraduate dental students were included in this study. Each student was informed regarding study design and protocol. A lecture on the principles of Pediatric Endodontics was delivered to the students in small groups using the routine virtual method, following which a pre-test activity questionnaire and formal thinking questionnaire were given to the students for scoring. Following this, the class of 80 was divided into smaller groups of four each and the Fishbowl–snowball activity was performed. A post-test activity questionnaire and formal thinking questionnaire were given once again to the students for scoring. The mean pre and post-test scores were statistically analyzed using paired t-test by statistical software SPSS version 20. A p-value of < 0.05 was considered significant.
Results The overall mean difference between pre and post-test activity and formal thinking scores was seen to be statistically significant (p < 0.001).
Conclusion It was seen that a combination of fishbowl and snowball method of teaching led to more satisfactory results as compared with the routine classroom teaching method.
The examination of job separation tendency of nursing staff in the first public–private joint-venture hospital in Taiwan: a multiple mediation model of job satisfaction and job performance
Authors: Chen Chiwei , Pao Lu-Sheng , Lei Hong 
Published: November 2022

AbstractNursing staff are the largest number of employees in hospitals and the high turnover rate is a global problem, which is also a critical issue faced by many hospitals in Taiwan. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to explore the factors affecting the job turnover of nursing staff and to propose suggestions to reduce job turnover. The results showed that among demographic variables, all variables except the affiliated unit were significantly positively or negatively related to job turnover intention. In the job characteristic analysis, it was found that job structure, repetitiveness of the job, the participation of nursing staff in job decisions, and compassionate leadership style were the antecedent variables affecting the intention to leave. Among organizational factors, colleague rapport was an antecedent variable to the intention to leave. Fairness of distribution, opportunity of in-service education, and colleague rapport added to job satisfaction to decrease the intention to leave. When using job performance as a mediation variable, this study found that promotion opportunity, fairness of distribution, and opportunity of in-service education could not affect the intention to leave through job performance. This study also found that the external job opportunities variable could be through a mediation variable, job satisfaction or job performance, which in turn affected the intention to leave. Several suggestions were proposed for top hospital management personnel, such as management by participation, planning a clear job structure, job rotation and job enrichment, and establishing a good working atmosphere and working environment to reduce job turnover.
Xylella: the greatest threat to Australian agriculture?
Authors: Taylor Philip 
Published: November 2022

The realities of climate change and global world trade could be playing into the hands of plant pathogens, none more so than Xylella fastidiosa. A relatively unimportant and parochial pathogen 50 years ago, it has become one of the most important plant diseases in the world threatening crop production in a wide variety of tree crops all over the globe. It moves within a region within insect vectors analogous to virus transmission but long-distance spread is through traded, often asymptomatic, plants. On arrival in a new region many of the local sap feeding insect population are candidates for its spread and this uncertainty coupled with the potential for the range of these as yet unidentified vectors to enlarge is heaping uncertainty on uncertainty. In addition to crop plants, many amenity trees species are susceptible, infection is often fatal and there is no cure once infection has occurred. Phytosanitation officers around the globe are deeply concerned about this new threat, the likes of which have never been seen previously.
The Spanish component of Falkland Islands English
Authors: Rodríguez Yliana V. , Elizaincín Adolfo , González Paz 
Published: November 2022

AbstractEnglish is the most used language in the Falkland Islands; however, Spanish was also spoken in the 19th century, when beef livestock farming was one of the economic engines of the Islands. Such businesses used to be managed by gauchos from South America, and their presence is still evident in the lexicon of Falkland Islands English. This article presents a novel methodological approach to the elaboration of loanwords corpora. Loanwords are later analysed in terms of their occurrence, frequency, appearance in dictionaries and the semantic fields they have penetrated. We have attempted to account for the volume of words that Spanish speakers lent to the Islands’ English. We observed that Spanish loanwords are mainly – though not exclusively – related to horse tack and horse types: it is clear from our data that most words are tightly connected to gauchos’ vernacular and not exclusively with their equestrian duties.
Do ‘say’ verbs really grammaticalize into complementizers through clause combination?
Authors: Long Haiping , Deng Chuanlin 
Published: November 2022

AbstractWhen a ‘say’ clause is combined with a quoted-speech clause, one of two hypothetical pathways may be followed: (a) a complementation pathway on which the ‘say’ clause takes the quoted-speech clause as its complement clause and thus becomes its matrix clause; (b) a conjoining pathway which involves no syntactic operation but rather the loss of a prosodic gap between the two. Following the second pathway, ‘say’ may become grammaticalized into a quotative particle. On neither pathway is ‘say’ grammaticalized into a complementizer. It is proposed that cross-linguistically so-called ‘say’ complementizers, including the alleged Chinese complementizershuō, are more likely to be not complementizers but rather quotative particles.
Structural markedness and depiction
Authors: Thompson Arthur L. , Chan May Pik Yu , Yeung Ping Hei , Do Youngah 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
Ideophones are marked words that depict sensory imagery and are hypothesized to be structurally marked, i.e., exhibiting unique structural properties. In this paper, “marked” is broadly used to mean phonologically marked (Dingemanse, 2021: Akita and Dingemanse, 2019). Using Cantonese ideophones as our case study, this paper measures sequential predictability within ideophones and non-ideophones, as a way to test their relative degree of structural markedness. We created a database of non-ideophones and ideophones from the Hong Kong Cantonese Corpus (HKCC) (Luke and Wong, 2015) and Mok (2001) and calculated the sequential predictability of each phoneme in various phonological contexts. The results indicate that Cantonese ideophones exhibit lower degrees of sequential predictability than non-ideophones, lending empirical support to the structural markedness of ideophones. We argue that non-ideophones exhibit a higher degree of sequential predictability because they follow the phonotactic regularities of Cantonese, whereas ideophones, to some degree, flout these regulations in favor of sequences of sounds that might better depict a given referent or percept.

Abstract

Objective. Endovascular neuromodulation has attracted substantial interest in recent years as a minimally invasive approach to treat neurological disorders. In this study, we investigated with a computational model the feasibility of stimulating peripheral nerves with an endovascular stent-mounted electrode array. Approach. Anatomically realistic FEM models were constructed for the pudendal and vagal neurovascular bundles. The electromagnetic fields generated from electrical stimuli were computed using Sim4Life NEURON models to predict dynamic axonal responses. Main results. The models predict that the stimulation thresholds of the endovascular stent-electrode array configurations tested are comparable to that of ring electrodes and are dependent on the inter-electrode distance and orientation of the device. Arranging multiple electrodes along the longitudinal axis of the nerve lowers surface charge density without sacrificing axon recruitment, whereas arranging electrodes along the circumference of the blood vessel reduces the risk of misalignment but lowers axon recruitment. Significance. Overall, this study predicts that the endovascular stent-electrode array is a feasible stimulation option for peripheral nerves, and the electrode array can be flexibly optimized to achieve the lowest stimulation threshold.
Precision measurement of the W boson mass using the full CDF Run II data set
Authors: Vellidis Costas 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
The mass of the W boson, a mediator of the weak force between elementary particles, is tightly constrained by the symmetries of the standard model of particle physics. After the observation of the Higgs boson, the last missing component of the model, the measurement of the W boson mass provides a stringent test of the model. A measurement of the W boson mass is presented, which used data corresponding to 8.8 fb−1 of integrated luminosity, collected in proton-antiproton collisions at a 1.96 TeV center-of-mass energy with the CDF II detector at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. A sample of approximately 4 million W boson candidates was used to obtain a Wboson mass of 80433.5±6.4stat ±6.9syst = 80433.5±9.4 MeV, the precision of which exceeds that of all previous measurements combined. This measurement is in significant tension with the standard model expectation.
