Introduction Malignant gliomas are the most common primary malignant brain tumors and are typically treated with maximal safe surgical resection followed by chemoradiation. One of the unintended effects of radiation is depletion of circulating lymphocyte pool, which has been correlated with inferior overall survival outcomes.
Methods A comprehensive and systematic searches of the PubMed, Cochrane Central, and Embase databases were done to assess the studies that have reported radiation-related lymphopenia in high-grade gliomas. Hazard ratios (HRs), odds ratios (OR), and mean differences were represented with Forest plots comparing patients with severe lymphopenia and no severe lymphopenia. Review Manager Version 5.3 (The Nordic Cochrane Centre, Copenhagen, Denmark) was used for the analysis.
Results Nineteen studies were included in the final systematic review and 12 studies were included in the meta-analysis. The odds of developing severe lymphopenia were 0.39 (95% CI:0.19, 0.81, I
2 = 94%, p = 0.01). Patients with severe lymphopenia were at increased risk of death with a pooled HR = 2.19 (95% CI: 1.70, 2.83, I
2 = 0%, p <0.00001) compared to patients with no severe lymphopenia. The mean difference in survival between patients with severe lymphopenia and no severe lymphopenia was −6.72 months (95% CI: −8.95, −4.49, I
2 = 99%, p <0.00001), with a better mean survival in the no severe lymphopenia group.
Conclusion Radiation-induced severe lymphopenia was associated with poor overall survival and increased risk of death. Photon therapy, larger planning target volume, higher brain dose, higher hypothalamus dose, and female gender were associated with increased risk of severe lymphopenia.

Published: August 2022

Background Youth who have migrated from rural to urban areas in Ethiopia are often precariously employed, lack access to sexual and reproductive health services, and are at heightened risk of sexual violence. However, little is known about the sexual and reproductive health consequences of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, and associated lockdowns and service disruptions for urban-dwelling socially disadvantaged youth. Methods This paper draws on qualitative virtual research with 154 urban youths aged 15–24 years who were past and present beneficiaries of United Nations Population Fund-funded programs, and 19 key informants from the city bureaus and non-governmental organisations in June 2020. Semistructured interviews by phone explored the impact of COVID-19 on young people’s sexual and reproductive health and rights. Results The pandemic has affected the availability of sexual and reproductive health information and services, and exacerbated fears about attending clinics, particularly disadvantaging youth living with HIV and those involved in commercial sex work. Many young people have also lost their livelihoods, with some moving into transactional and survival sex. Sexual violence further undermines the rights and well-being of youth who are already marginalised, with street-connected youth, young people involved in commercial sex work and youth with disabilities particularly at risk. Conclusion There is an urgent need to quickly resume front-line services, and social assistance measures must include young people, if Ethiopia is to continue meeting its own objectives around adolescent and youth sexual and reproductive health.

Published: August 2022

Abstract
In this work, the electrical and photoresponse measurements of a transparent conductive Al-doped ZnO (AZO)/n-Si heterojunction device were conducted in visible light and UV wavelengths. AZO film was deposited by sputtering onto an n-Si wafer and investigated by means of morphological, chemical and electrical characterizations. The AZO/n-Si rectifying device exhibits an excellent reproducibility without noticeable variations after 90 days of measurements. At self-powered mode, the maximum on/off ratios were determined as 3081 for visible light and 4778 for UV light illumination of 365 nm. The responsivity and detectivity of the AZO/n-Si photodetector were 0.128 A W−1 and 1.05 × 1011 Jones for 365 nm, whereas they were 0.055 A W−1 and 4.60 × 1010 Jones for 395 nm, respectively (at −2.0 V). This study demonstrated that the n-AZO/n-Si isotype heterojunction photodetector was fabricated at low cost and it is a potential candidate in both the visible region and the UV region with a good performance, in contrast to the widely studied pn heterojunctions.

Published: August 2022

Abstract
This paper present a 1D finite-energy Airy beam generator at 8.0 GHz using a transmissive metasurface composed of coupling-propagation-decoupling unit cells. The phase and amplitude of the cross-polarized transmitted waves can be controlled by changing the length of the stripline and the position of loaded shorting pins, respectively. Utilizing this property to reshape the field of transmitted waves in accordance with the desired phase and amplitude profile of 1D finite-energy Airy beams. The designed metasurface is fabricated to measure the quasi-nondiffraction and self-bending properties of the generated 1D Airy beams at 8.0 GHz. In addition, the presented Airy beams generator has a very thin thickness of 0.05

(≈2 mm). The measured results were found to be in good agreement with the simulated results. Thanks to the independent control of phase, amplitude and polarization, the designed unit cell can be used in structured light, beam shaping, and holography etc.

) in N-dimensions of non-Newtonian fluid. Moreover, the relationship between shear stress and shear rate of non-Newtonian hybrid nanofluids is studied. The results are graphically represented to illustrate the behavior of solutions for the presented model. It is noted that the nanoparticles improve the thermophysical properties, which enhances the efficiency of the heat transfer rate of the nanofluids and decreases the behavior of the gas bubble radius. Based on the analysis of simulation procedures and system stability, we observe that the obtained results provide more accurate solutions and a greater reduction in the growth bubble process compared to previous models. Finally, we apply the phase plane approach to analyze the stability of the corresponding nonlinear system of the proposed model.
Decaying warm dark matter revisited
Authors: Holm Emil Brinch , Tram Thomas , Hannestad Steen 
Published: August 2022

AbstractDecaying dark matter models provide a physically motivated way of channeling energy between the matter and radiation sectors. In principle, this could affect the predicted value of the Hubble constant in such a way as to accommodate the discrepancies between CMB inferences and local measurements of the same. Here, we revisit the model of warm dark matter decaying non-relativistically to invisible radiation. In particular, we rederive the background and perturbation equations starting from a decaying neutrino model and describe a new, computationally efficient method of computing the decay product perturbations up to large multipoles. We conduct MCMC analyses to constrain all three model parameters, for the first time including the mass of the decaying species, and assess the ability of the model to alleviate the Hubble andσ8tensions, the latter being the discrepancy between the CMB and weak gravitational lensing constraints on the amplitude of matter fluctuations on an 8h-1Mpc-1scale. We find that the model reduces theH0tension from ∼ 4σto ∼ 3σand neither alleviates nor worsens theS8≡σ8(Ωm/0.3)0.5tension, ultimately showing only mild improvements with respect to ΛCDM. However, the values of the model-specific parameters favoured by data is found to be well within the regime of relativistic decays where inverse processes are important, rendering a conclusive evaluation of the decaying warm dark matter model open to future work.
Radiative transfer in stars by feebly interacting bosons
Authors: Caputo Andrea , Raffelt Georg , Vitagliano Edoardo 
Published: August 2022

Abstract
Starting from first principles, we study radiative transfer by new feebly-interacting bosons (FIBs) such as axions, axion-like particles (ALPs), dark photons, and others. Our key simplification is to include only boson emission or absorption (including decay), but not scattering between different modes of the radiation field. Based on a given distribution of temperature and FIB absorption rate in a star, we derive explicit volume-integral expressions for the boson luminosity, reaching from the free-streaming to the strong-trapping limit. The latter is seen explicitly to correspond to quasi-thermal emission from a “FIB sphere” according to the Stefan-Boltzmann law. Our results supersede expressions and approximations found in the recent literature on FIB emission from a supernova core and, for radiatively unstable FIBs, provide explicit expressions for the nonlocal (“ballistic”) transfer of energy recently discussed in horizontal-branch stars.
Reconstructing data-driven governing equations for cell phenotypic transitions: integration of data science and systems biology
Authors: Xing Jianhua 
Published: August 2022

Abstract
Cells with the same genome can exist in different phenotypes and can change between distinct phenotypes when subject to specific stimuli and microenvironments. Some examples include cell differentiation during development, reprogramming for induced pluripotent stem cells and transdifferentiation, cancer metastasis and fibrosis progression. The regulation and dynamics of cell phenotypic conversion is a fundamental problem in biology, and has a long history of being studied within the formalism of dynamical systems. A main challenge for mechanism-driven modeling studies is acquiring sufficient amount of quantitative information for constraining model parameters. Advances in quantitative experimental approaches, especially high throughput single-cell techniques, have accelerated the emergence of a new direction for reconstructing the governing dynamical equations of a cellular system from quantitative single-cell data, beyond the dominant statistical approaches. Here I review a selected number of recent studies using live- and fixed-cell data and provide my perspective on future development.
Multi-harmonic electron cyclotron heating and current drive scenarios for non-inductive start-up and ramp-up in high field ST-40 spherical tokamak
Authors: Ono M. , Bertelli N. , Shevchenko V. 
Published: August 2022

Abstract
Non-inductive start-up and ramp-up is an important topic for spherical tokamak reactor design as the central solenoid implementation is highly restrictive particularly for the low-aspect-ratio tokamak configuration. In the high field spherical tokamak (ST), ST-40 with B
T0 ⩽ 3 T, a preparation is underway for high power ECH and ECCD current start-up/ramp-up experiments utilizing two MW-class 140/105 GHz gyrotrons. Here, we explored various ECH/ECCD scenarios for a low-field-side (LFS) launch-angle steerable waveguide launcher placed near the mid-plane region. Due to the large toroidal field variation of ST configuration, multiple cyclotron harmonic resonance layers could exist within the plasma. In this start-up and ramp-up regime, both fundamental and second harmonic ECH resonances must be considered. We find that even with the presence of X-II resonance layer in the plasma, an efficient X-I ECH and ECCD regime can be accessed for the low electron temperature T
e0 as low as 200 eV which is a typical starting temperature of ECH heated plasmas in an open-field-line configuration. The presence of X-II resonance could become significant at higher T
e0 as X-II absorption increases with T
e0 which could reduce the current ramp-up efficiency as the power reaching X-I is reduced. Finally for the pure X-I regime where the 2Ωe resonance is moved outside the plasma with B
T0 ∼ 3.4 T, we find that it is possible to reach the full current of I
p ∼ 1 MA fully non-inductively with the ECH power of ∼1 MW at n
e0 ∼ 1.0 × 1019 m−3 using 105 GHz frequency gyrotron. By reducing the outer limiter position R
L ∼ 78 cm to 70 cm, the pure X-I regime is recovered at the rated ST-40 magnetic field of B
T0 ∼ 3.0 T. This X-I regime is accessible with a relatively broad range of launched n
II or the launching angles. A survey of X-mode X-II ECH and ECCD at higher density regimes is also shown for completeness.

Published: August 2022

Abstract
Various properties of the energetic particle-induced geodesic acoustic mode (EGAM) are explored in this large database analysis of DIII-D experimental data. EGAMs are n = 0 modes with m = 0 electrostatic potential fluctuations (where n/m = toroidal/poloidal mode number), m = 1 density fluctuations, and m = 2 magnetic fluctuations. The fundamental frequency (∼20–40 kHz) of the mode is typically below that of the traditional geodesic acoustic mode frequency. EGAMs are most easily destabilized by beams in the counter plasma current (counter-I
p) direction as compared to co-I
p and off-axis beams. During counter beam injection, the mode frequency is found to have the strongest linear dependence (correlation coefficient r = −0.71) with the safety factor (q). The stability of the mode in the space of q and poloidal beta (β
p) shows a clear boundary for the mode stability. The stability of the mode depends more strongly on damping rate than on fast-ion drive for a given injection geometry.

Abstract
We study the post-quench unitary dynamics of a quantum sunburst spin model, composed of a transverse-field quantum Ising ring which is suddenly coupled to a set of independent external qubits along the longitudinal direction, in a way to respect a residual translation invariance and the Ising

symmetry. Starting from the different equilibrium quantum phases of the system, we characterize the decoherence and the energy storage in the external qubits, which may be interpreted as a probing apparatus for the inner Ising ring. Our results show that, in proximity of the quantum transitions of the Ising ring, either first-order or continuous, it is possible to put forward dynamic finite-size scaling frameworks which unveil peculiar scaling regimes, depending on the way in which the large-size limit is taken: either by fixing the number n of probing qubits, or their interspace distance b. In any case, the dependence of the various observables on n can be reabsorbed into a redefinition of the quench parameter by a

n

prefactor. We also address the role of a nearest-neighbor coupling between the external qubits.

Authors: Li Wenliang 
Published: August 2022

Abstract
With the rapid development of modern society, the application of intelligent unmanned vehicles is becoming more and more popular. Based on the scene of unmanned vehicle patrol operation in an intelligent warehouse and simplifying it, this paper designs an image processing and perception of driving road conditions with ATM89C51 single-chip microcomputer as the core, camera, and infrared sensors to realize the detection of car trajectory. Two groups of four DC motors are set to drive, and the turning is carried out through the differential speed of the wheel motors on both sides. The turning radius and turning time are shortened through the independent control of the motors on both sides. The L298N full-bridge motor drive core is used to control the speed of the motor, to realize the accurate control of the trolley movement, and lay the foundation for the intelligent operation of the trolley in more scenarios. The accuracy of car navigation and motion control is improved through dual sensors.

Published: August 2022

Abstract
Bionic robot fish have been widely used in various underwater exploration activities due to their advantages of low noise, low resistance, high flexibility and high concealment. A dielectric elastomer (DE) is a soft material that significantly deforms under the action of an electric field. It has the characteristics of large strain, flexibility, high energy density and fast response speed, which lead to its unique advantages in the actuation of bionic fish. In this paper, the actuation characteristics of a dielectric elastomer are used to design and prepare a limit-type antagonistic dielectric elastomer actuator (DEA). A BCF bionic robot fish is proposed based on the DEA, which has a maximum swimming speed of 22.7 mm/s.

Published: August 2022

Abstract
In order to deal with the problem of energy shortage, demand side management has attracted more and more attention. Taking demand side resources as an example to understand the regulation potential of demand side resources, this paper designs a hierarchical and partitioned dynamic regulation architecture for demand side adjustable resources, which can carry out the interconnection between multi-level subjects and efficient information interaction. The regulation potential prediction model of elastic load is established through the hierarchical and partitioned architecture, and the credible and adjustable potential of resident users under two regulation scenarios is obtained through calculation: participating in emergency load reduction and peak valley difference, which proves the effectiveness of the architecture.
Characterization of a high bandwidth readout chain for the CMS phase-2 pixel upgrade
Authors: Smith C. 
Published: August 2022

Abstract
The CMS collaboration is building a new inner tracking pixel detector for the High-Luminosity LHC. Each pixel readout chip will be controlled with a single serial input stream at 160 Mb/s and will send out data via four current mode logic (CML) 1.28 Gb/s outputs. The readout chips will be grouped in modules and connected with up to 1.6 meters long low-mass electrical links to Low-Power Gigabit Transceivers (lpGBT) and Versatile Link PLUS Transceiver (VTRx+) modules that send the data optically to off-detector electronics at 10 Gb/s. The characterization of these components and system tests of the readout chain are presented.
Time-assisted energy reconstruction in a highly-granular hadronic calorimeter
Authors: Graf C. , Simon F. 
Published: August 2022

Abstract
The software compensation algorithms developed for the
CALICE Analog Hadron Calorimeter are extended to incorporate time
information on the cell level, and the performance is studied in
GEANT4 simulations with a detector model of a highly-granular
SiPM-on-tile calorimeter. The addition of nanosecond-level time
resolution is found to result in significant improvement of the
energy resolution by approximately 3 % to 4 % for
local software compensation compared to the software compensation
based on local energy density alone, with further improvement
possible with better timing resolution. The high correlation of
energy density and time variables show that both provide sensitivity
to correlated underlying shower features, which limits the potential
of timing information when used as a global rather than a local
variable.
