Introduction
Gap and step-off measurements are generally used in the surgical decision-making process of distal radius fractures. Unfortunately, there is no consensus on treatment choice as these measurements are prone to inter- and intraobserver variability. In this study, we aim to introduce a new 3D fracture quantification method and compare it to conventional fracture analysis.

Methods
Forty patients with a minimally displaced intra-articular distal radius fracture that was treated nonoperatively between 2008–2015 were included. 2D-CT images were reassessed by three orthopedic trauma surgeons who performed gap and step-off measurements. Subsequently, 3D models were created and a 3D measurement method for fracture displacement was developed. For each fracture, the ‘3D gap area’ (3D surface between all fracture fragments) was determined by three observers. Interobserver agreements were calculated for all measurements, and the intraobserver agreement was calculated for the new 3D measurement. All patients completed two questionnaires in order to link our measurements to functional outcome.

Results
The interobserver agreement of the 2D measurements was fair (ICC = 0.54) for the gap and poor (ICC = 0.21) for the step-off. The median gap was 2.8 (IQR: 1.9–3.5) mm and step-off was 0.9 (IQR: 0.0–1.6) mm. Interobserver agreement on 3D gap area measurements was excellent (ICC = 0.81), with a median difference between measurements of 6.0 (IQR: 2.0–19.0) mm2, which indicates reliable assessment of 3D fracture displacement. Intraobserver agreement was also excellent (ICC = 0.98), with a median difference of 4.0 (IQR: 1.5–5.5) mm2. No significant differences in clinical outcome were found between the above and below 2mm displacement groups. The score of the DASH was 3.4 (IQR: 0.4–8.8) versus 4.2 (IQR: 0.0–11.6) respectively. Results from the PRWE questionnaire shows a similar result of 3.5 (IQR: 0.0–12.6) versus 5.0 (IQR: 0.0–25.5).

Conclusion
3D gap area is a more objective measurement method compared to the conventional gap and step-off measurements to quantify the level of fracture displacement of distal radius fractures. 3D fracture assessment can be used in addition to the currently used classification systems of distal radius fractures.
O Monge de Cister de Alexandre Herculano
Authors: Coelho Maria Helena da Cruz 
Published: September 2022

Alexandre Herculano, um intelectual romântico, comungando dos valores e ideais do liberalismo, defendia um projeto de educação nacional em que a história, a literatura e a moral contribuíam para a formação das gerações no amor à Nação e no empenhamento pela sua regeneração. O conhecimento da história e o culto da história atravessavam todas as manifestações intelectuais românticas, como a poesia, o romance, a novela, o teatro. Logo Herculano convocou os seus conhecimentos e desmultiplicou a sua atividade entregando-se à escrita científica da história, à preservação dos documentos históricos e à divulgação e acessibilização histórica em periódicos ou em literatura ficcionada de romances e dramas históricos.
Os romances históricos de Alexandre Herculano, O Bobo, Eurico o Presbítero e O Monge de Cister, e a maioria da sua literatura ficcionada, desde logo Lendas e Narrativas, centram-se na Idade Média, a época preferida dos românticos, e aquela a que este escritor se devotou inteiramente como historiador, romancista e diplomatista. Neste estudo iremos analisar o romance O Monge de Cister, essencialmente numa perspectiva histórica. Percorreremos a narrativa e atentaremos nas figuras políticas que nela se representam e no período histórico em que se enquadram as situações ficcionadas. Deter-nos-emos sobre a ambiência social e cultural que nos é retratada por Herculano. E procuraremos captar na prosa do romance os ideais que, pelas lições do passado, Herculano advogava e queria transmitir aos seus leitores.

A partir de um percurso pelas principais características da construção da narrativa histórica e dos seus desafios epistemológicos, nomeadamente as questões de posicionamento de perspetiva e enfoque cultural na produção de conhecimento histórico questionaremos como é possível articular princípios de multiperspectivismo e universalismo na aprendizagem histórica intercultural, apresentando e debatendo alguns modelos que procuram explicitar como a experiência histórica se pode desenvolver para fomentar a aprendizagem e contribuir para a formação de consciência histórica.
Sellars’s Core Critique of C. I. Lewis: Against the Equation of Aboutness with Givenness
Authors: Klemick Griffin 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
Many have taken Sellars’s critique of empiricism in “Empiricism and the Philosophy of Mind” (EPM) to be aimed at his teacher C. I. Lewis. But if so, why do the famous arguments of its opening sections carry so little force against Lewis’s views? Understandably, some respond by denying that Lewis’s epistemology is among the positions targeted by Sellars. But this is incorrect. Indeed, Sellars had earlier offered more trenchant (if already familiar) critiques of Lewis’s epistemology. What is original about EPM is that it criticizes empiricist positions like Lewis’s not because of their foundationalism, but because of their psychologism about meaning. Since psychologism turns out to be unacceptable by Lewis’s own lights, EPM has a compelling (if implicit) critique of Lewis to offer after all, one that strikes at the heart of his philosophical system.
Health-related communication in everyday life: Communication partners, channels, and patterns
Authors: Wagner Anna , Reifegerste Doreen 
Published: September 2022

Abstract
Although health matters are commonly discussed in various social contexts, health-related interpersonal communication still remains a black box in health communication research. Bringing together research from the fields of health communication and interpersonal communication, we therefore examine how people communicate about health and illness in their everyday lives. Based on Channel Complementary Theory and the concept of communication repertoires, we focus on a) the communication partners, b) the communication channels, and c) the communication patterns relevant to health-related interpersonal communication. We conducted a qualitative study with 22 semi-structured online interviews combined with ego-centered network maps. Findings show that a) what is discussed with whom depends on the intimacy of the relationship, topic sensitivity, and partners’ personal characteristics, b) face-to-face communication is the preferred way of communicating, and c) (a-)symmetry of roles, (in)formality, and intimacy of the relationship influence communication.
Signal transduction mechanisms in heme-based globin-coupled oxygen sensors with a focus on a histidine kinase (AfGcHK) and a diguanylate cyclase (YddV or EcDosC)

Abstract
Heme is a vital cofactor of proteins with roles in oxygen transport (e.g. hemoglobin), storage (e.g. myoglobin), and activation (e.g. P450) as well as electron transfer (e.g. cytochromes) and many other functions. However, its structural and functional role in oxygen sensing proteins differs markedly from that in most other enzymes, where it serves as a catalytic or functional center. This minireview discusses the mechanism of signal transduction in two heme-based oxygen sensors: the histidine kinase AfGcHK and the diguanylate cyclase YddV (EcDosC), both of which feature a heme-binding domain containing a globin fold resembling that of hemoglobin and myoglobin.

Abstract
Low-carbon, green and intelligent production is urgently needed in China’s iron and steel industry. Accurate prediction of liquid steel composition at the end of basic oxygen furnace (BOF) plays an important role in promoting high-quality, high-efficiency and stable production in steelmaking process. A prediction model based on the principal component analysis (PCA) – genetic algorithm (GA) – back propagation (BP) neural network is proposed for BOF end-point P and O contents of liquid steel. PCA is used to eliminate the correlation between the factors, and the obtained principal components are seen as input parameters of the BP neural network; then, GA is employed to optimize the initialized weights and thresholds of the BP neural network. The flux composition and bottom blowing are considered in the input variables. The results indicate that the prediction accuracy of the single output model is higher than that of the dual output model. The root-mean-square error of P content between predicted and actual values is 0.0015%, and that of O content is 0.0049%. Therefore, the model can provide a good reference for BOF end-point control.

Abstract
Marine concrete is a kind of construction material which is seeking its growing application in marine engineering. However, the marine concrete structures are exposed to aggressive environment and harmful ions. Therefore, it is crucial to improve the durability of marine concrete. The concrete structure located in the tidal zone is subjected to the dry–wet cycles caused by tidal action, chloride ion (Cl−) erosion in seawater, and CO2 erosion in air. When these factors work together, they cause great damage to the marine concrete structure. In view of the three environmental factors, namely, Cl− erosion, carbonation, and dry–wet cycles, taking fly ash, fibers, and nanomaterials as examples, this article expounds the research status of durability of marine concrete, introduces the latest research progress, the addition of fibers, fly ash, and nanomaterials can improve the Cl− corrosion resistance and dry–wet cycles resistance of marine concrete, while the addition of fly ash is unfavorable for carbonation resistance. And the future development trend of marine concrete is prospected.

Abstract
Suhara, H, Nariai, M, Takagi, T, Akiyama, K, Nagashima, J, and Shiraki, H. Relationship of clubhead speed with explosive power and muscle strength of the hip and trunk joints of elite golfers. J Strength Cond Res 37(4): 859–865, 2023—In golf, the driving distance of the ball is affected by the clubhead speed (CHS) on impact. We aimed to clarify the relationship between CHS and explosive power and muscle strength of the hip and trunk muscles in elite golfers (male age: 19.6 ± 1.9 years, male handicap: 4.4 ± 0.9, female age: 17.7 ± 1.4 years, and female handicap: 6.2 ± 0.7). A correlational design was used to assess the relationships between CHS and strength (hip extension-flexion and trunk rotation of peak torque at an isokinetic 60 and 180°·s−1 angular velocity) and CHS and power (countermovement jump [CMJ]; peak power and jump height; backward overhead medicine ball [BOMB] throw). Fourteen each of male and female elite golfers were included. The CHS during the golf swing was measured using a Doppler radar measurement device (Trackman). A correlation analysis between each measurement and CHS (p ≤ 0.05) was conducted. We found that the peak torque of right hip extension at an angular velocity of 180°/s (male, r = 0.67; female, r = 0.61), peak CMJ power (male: r = 0.63, female: r = 0.75), and BOMB throw distance (male, r = 0.6; female, 0.6) were positively correlated with CHS in both male and female golfers. These results suggest that the extensor strength of the lower extremities and trunk, centered on the hip joint in the sagittal plane, is important for physical fitness and muscle strength measurement related to CHS. Conversely, concentric trunk rotator strength and CHS were not correlated, suggesting that concentric trunk rotator strength may not be actively involved in CHS.
Retrograde Axonal Autophagy and Endocytic Pathways Are Parallel and Separate in Neurons

Published: September 2022

Autophagy and endocytic trafficking are two key pathways that regulate the composition and integrity of the neuronal proteome. Alterations in these pathways are sufficient to cause neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disorders. Thus, defining how autophagy and endocytic pathways are organized in neurons remains a key area of investigation. These pathways share many features and converge on lysosomes for cargo degradation, but what remains unclear is the degree to which the identity of each pathway is preserved in each compartment of the neuron. Here, we elucidate the degree of intersection between autophagic and endocytic pathways in axons of primary mouse cortical neurons of both sexes. Using microfluidic chambers, we labeled newly-generated bulk endosomes and signaling endosomes in the distal axon, and systematically tracked their trajectories, molecular composition, and functional characteristics relative to autophagosomes. We find that newly-formed endosomes and autophagosomes both undergo retrograde transport in the axon, but as distinct organelle populations. Moreover, these pathways differ in their degree of acidification and association with molecular determinants of organelle maturation. These results suggest that the identity of autophagic and newly endocytosed organelles is preserved for the length of the axon. Lastly, we find that expression of a pathogenic form of α-synuclein, a protein enriched in presynaptic terminals, increases merging between autophagic and endocytic pathways. Thus, aberrant merging of these pathways may represent a mechanism contributing to neuronal dysfunction in Parkinson's disease (PD) and related α-synucleinopathies.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTAutophagy and endocytic trafficking are retrograde pathways in neuronal axons that fulfill critical degradative and signaling functions. These pathways share many features and converge on lysosomes for cargo degradation, but the extent to which the identity of each pathway is preserved in axons is unclear. We find that autophagosomes and endosomes formed in the distal axon undergo retrograde transport to the soma in parallel and separate pathways. These pathways also have distinct maturation profiles along the mid-axon, further highlighting differences in the potential fate of transported cargo. Strikingly, expression of a pathogenic variant of α-synuclein increases merging between autophagic and endocytic pathways, suggesting that mis-sorting of axonal cargo may contribute to neuronal dysfunction in Parkinson's disease (PD) and related α-synucleinopathies.

AbstractObjectiveAcromegaly is associated with somatic disfigurements which impair self-perception of well-being and quality of life. Nowadays, limited data are available on the interplay between hormonal excess and psychological discomfort. The study aimed at investigating the psychological profile, sleep quality, sexual function, cognitive functions, and quality of life in patients with acromegaly.MethodsIn 223 acromegaly patients from 5 referral centres, global psychological profile, sleep quality, sexual function, cognitive function, and quality of life were investigated.ResultsDepression was found in ~30% of patients, and anxiety in two-thirds, together with severe discomfort in body image mainly in women. Obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome risk and sleep disorders were found in &gt;50% of patients and daily sleepiness in ~20%. Sexual dysfunction was reported in most of the patients, with the most severe impairment in women. Cognitive functions were compromised in ~10% of cases. Disease duration and patient's age and gender were the main determinants of these psychopathological conditions. Depression (P = 0.047), somatic-affective mood lowering (P = 0.021), state (P &lt; 0.001) and trait (P = 0.013) anxiety, and body image distortion in body uneasiness test A (P &lt; 0.001) and B (P = 0.006) were significantly worsened in patients &lt;45 years and slightly worsened in those with disease duration less than 2 years. Male (P &lt; 0.001) and female (P &lt; 0.001) sexual function scores were significantly worsened in patients aged &gt;64 years and slightly worsened in those with disease duration for more than 10 years, particularly in presence of cardiometabolic and respiratory complications. Cognitive symptoms were slightly worsened in older patients and in those with long disease duration.ConclusionsAcromegaly is associated with a relevant impairment of psychological profile persisting despite remission and long-term medical treatment.
Psychotropic Medication Utilization Among Children Diagnosed With Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder
Authors: Senturias Yasmin , Ali Mir M. , West Kristina 
Published: September 2022

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
To date, there has been no large, population-based study estimating the prevalence of psychotropic medication use and cooccurring medical conditions among children with fetal alcohol syndrome disorder (FASD). In addition, it is not known how psychotropic medication use varies by mental health status of the children with FASD and their health insurance coverage. This study attempts to fill this gap by analyzing a large health insurance claims database covering Medicaid and private insurance.

METHODS
The study used the 2017 IBM Watson Health MarketScan Multistate Medicaid and Commercial Claims databases. The sample for the analysis includes children between the ages of 0 and 17 with either an FASD diagnosis or a mental health diagnosis (N = 848 721 Medicaid; N = 511 061 private insurance).

RESULTS
More than half of the children with an FASD diagnosis were prescribed psychotropic medications (63% Medicaid; 57% private). Utilization rates of psychotropic medication among children with cooccurring FASD and a mental health condition (79% Medicaid; 71% private) were higher compared to children with a mental health diagnosis but no FASD (57% Medicaid; 57% private). Stimulants were the most commonly prescribed. Encephalopathy, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and epilepsy were the 3 most common cooccurring diagnosis among children with FASD using psychotropic medication under Medicaid compared to encephalopathy, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and anxiety with private insurance.

CONCLUSIONS
These results exemplify the complexity of the neurobehavioral profile of children with FASD and the challenge of treatment. Future studies may determine how supportive services for these children will affect psychotropic medication use.

Published: September 2022

Distributed POMDPs provide an expressive framework for modeling multiagent collaboration problems, but NEXP-Complete complexity hinders their scalability and application in real-world domains. This paper introduces a subclass of distributed POMDPs, and TREMOR, an algorithm to solve such distributed POMDPs. The primary novelty of TREMOR is that agents plan individually with a single agent POMDP solver and use social model shaping to implicitly coordinate with other agents. Experiments demonstrate that TREMOR can provide solutions orders of magnitude faster than existing algorithms while achieving comparable, or even superior, solution quality.
A Decision-Theoretic Approach to Dynamic Sensor Selection in Camera Networks
Authors: Spaan Matthijs , Lima Pedro 
Published: September 2022

Nowadays many urban areas have been equipped with networks of surveillance cameras, which can be used for automatic localization and tracking of people. However, given the large resource demands of imaging sensors in terms of bandwidth and computing power, processing the image streams of all cameras simultaneously might not be feasible. In this paper, we consider the problem of dynamical sensor selection based on user-defined objectives, such as maximizing coverage or improved localization uncertainty. We propose a decision-theoretic approach modeled as a POMDP, which selects k sensors to consider in the next time frame, incorporating all observations made in the past. We show how, by changing the POMDP's reward function, we can change the system's behavior in a straightforward manner, fulfilling the user's chosen objective. We successfully apply our techniques to a network of 10 cameras.

Published: September 2022

We present a hierarchical planning system and its application to robotic manipulation. The novel features of the system are: 1) it finds high-quality kinematic solutions to task-level problems; 2) it takes advantage of subtask-specific irrelevance information, reusing optimal solutions to state-abstracted subproblems across the search space. We briefly describe how the system handles uncertainty during plan execution, and present results on discrete problems as well as pick-and-place tasks for a mobile robot.
