description: This study was undertaken to evaluate the prescribing practice of albumin in the intensive care unit (ICU) and to compare the clinical and economic outcomes associated with intravenous (IV) albumin compared to crystalloids in the ICU. This was a retrospective cohort study of ICU adult patients admitted to King Abdullah University Hospital during 2018–2019. Patient demographics, clinical characteristics, and admission charges were retrieved from medical records and billing system. Survival analysis, multivariable regression models, and propensity score matching estimator were performed to evaluate the impact of IV resuscitation fluid types on the clinical and economic outcomes. Albumin administration in the ICU was associated with significantly lower hazards of ICU death (HR = 0.57; P value <0.001), but without improving overall death probability compared to crystalloids. Albumin was associated with significant prolongation in the ICU length of stay (5.86 days; P value <0.001). Only 88 patients (24.3%) were prescribed albumin for Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved indications. Admission charges were significantly higher for patients treated with albumin (p value <0.001). IV Albumin use in the ICU was not associated with significant improvement in clinical outcomes, but with a remarkable increase in economic burden. The majority of patients received albumin for non-FDA-approved indications.

description: The main aim of this paper is to show that a cyclic cover of $\mathbb{P}^n$ branched along a very general divisor of degree $d$ is not stably rational provided that $n \ge 3$ and $d \ge n+1$. This generalizes the result of Colliot-Thélène and Pirutka. Generalizations for cyclic covers over complete intersections and applications to suitable Fano manifolds are also discussed.

description: In this study, we present a new method for forecasting arrival times and speeds of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) at any location in the inner heliosphere. This new approach enables the adoption of a highly flexible geometrical shape for the CME front with an adjustable CME angular width and an adjustable radius of curvature of its leading edge, i.e. the assumed geometry is elliptical. Using, as input, STEREO heliospheric imager (HI) observations, a new elliptic conversion (ElCon) method is introduced and combined with the use of drag-based model (DBM) fitting to quantify the deceleration or acceleration experienced by CMEs during propagation. The result is then used as input for the Ellipse Evolution Model (ElEvo). Together, ElCon, DBM fitting, and ElEvo form the novel ElEvoHI forecasting utility. To demonstrate the applicability of ElEvoHI, we forecast the arrival times and speeds of 21 CMEs remotely observed from STEREO/HI and compare them to in situ arrival times and speeds at 1 AU. Compared to the commonly used STEREO/HI fitting techniques (Fixed-$Φ$, Harmonic Mean, and Self-similar Expansion fitting), ElEvoHI improves the arrival time forecast by about 2 hours to $\pm 6.5$ hours and the arrival speed forecast by $\approx 250$ km s$^{-1}$ to $\pm 53$ km s$^{-1}$, depending on the ellipse aspect ratio assumed. In particular, the remarkable improvement of the arrival speed prediction is potentially beneficial for predicting geomagnetic storm strength at Earth.

description: Value-based pricing (VBP) can be a promising tool for optimizing drug prices. However, there is no consensus on the specific value elements and pricing method that should be used for VBP. We performed a systematic review and narrative synthesis to investigate the value elements and pricing method for VBP. The main inclusion criterion was that value elements, VBP method, and estimated prices for actual drugs were reported. We performed a search in MEDLINE and ICHUSHI Web. Eight articles met the selection criteria. Four studies adopted the cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) approach and the others used different approaches. The CEA approach included the value elements of productivity, value of hope, real option value, disease severity, insurance value in addition to costs and quality-adjusted life years. The other approaches used efficacy, toxicity, novelty, rarity, research and development costs, prognosis, population health burden, unmet needs, and effectiveness. Each study used individual methods to quantify these broader value elements. Both conventional and broader value elements are used for VBP. To allow VBP to be widely applied to various diseases, a simple, versatile method is preferable. Further research is needed to establish VBP method which enables to incorporate broader values.

description: The Paris Memorandum of Understanding on Port State Control (Paris MoU) is responsible for controlling substandard shipping in European waters and, consequently, increasing the standards of safety, pollution prevention, and onboard living and working conditions. Since 2011, the Memorandum adopted a system of points, named the "Ship Risk Profile" (SRP), under which each ship is assigned a risk profile according to its score on a set of criteria. Being a multiple criteria decision aiding (MCDA) tool at its core, comprising criteria, weights, and risk categories, limited research has been performed on the SRP from an MCDA perspective. The purpose of this paper is to propose an MCDA approach for ship risk classification through the Deck of Cards Method (DCM). The DCM is particularly suitable within this context as it allows, intuitively for the decision-maker, to model preference among different criteria and among different levels on criteria scales. First, a framework is built, based on the criteria established in the SRP. Second, the DCM is used to build the MCDA model, including the definition of the criteria value functions and criteria weights. Finally, the proposed MCDA model is applied to a dataset of ships and the results are discussed. Robust results have been obtained with the proposed approach, making it a potential alternative to the current SRP.

description: We present results of an infrared study of the molecular cloud Lynds 1340, forming three groups of low and intermediate-mass stars. Our goals are to identify and characterise the young stellar population of the cloud, study the relationships between the properties of the cloud and the emergent stellar groups, and integrate L1340 into the picture of the star-forming activity of our Galactic environment. We selected candidate young stellar objects from the Spitzer and WISE data bases using various published color criteria, and classified them based on the slope of the spectral energy distribution. We identified 170 Class II, 27 Flat SED, and Class 0/I sources. High angular resolution near-infrared observations of the RNO 7 cluster, embedded in L1340, revealed eight new young stars of near-infrared excess. The surface density distribution of young stellar objects shows three groups, associated with the three major molecular clumps of L1340, each consisting of less than 100 members, including both pre-main sequence stars and embedded protostars. New Herbig--Haro objects were identified in the Spitzer images. Our results demonstrate that L1340 is a prolific star-forming region of our Galactic environment in which several specific properties of the intermediate-mass mode of star formation can be studied in detail.

description: In this paper, a notion of a principal $2$-bundle over a Lie groupoid has been introduced. For such principal $2$-bundles, we produced a short exact sequence of VB-groupoids, namely, the Atiyah sequence. Two notions of connection structures viz. strict connections and semi-strict connections on a principal $2$-bundle arising respectively, from a retraction of the Atiyah sequence and a retraction up to a natural isomorphism have been introduced. We constructed a class of principal $\mathbb{G}=[G_1\rightrightarrows G_0]$-bundles and connections from a given principal $G_0$-bundle $E_0\rightarrow X_0$ over $[X_1\rightrightarrows X_0]$ with connection. An existence criterion for the connections on a principal $2$-bundle over a proper, étale Lie groupoid is proposed. The action of the $2$-group of gauge transformations on the category of strict and semi-strict connections has been studied. Finally we noted an extended symmetry of the category of semi-strict connections.

description: Cyber-Physical Systems are the result of integrating information and communication technologies into physical systems. One particular case are Cyber-Physical Power Systems (CPPS), which use communication technologies to perform real-time monitoring and operation. These kinds of systems have become more complex, impacting on the systems' characteristics, such as their reliability. In addition, it is already known that in terms of the reliability of Cyber-Physical Power Distribution Systems (CPPDS), the failures of the communication network are just as relevant as the electrical network failures. However, some of the operators' performances, such as response time and decision quality, during CPPDS contingencies have not been investigated yet. In this paper, we introduce a model to the operator response time, present a Sequential Monte Carlo Simulation methodology that incorporates the response time in CPPDS reliability indices estimation, and evaluate the impact of the operator response time in reliability indices. Our method is tested on a CPPDS using different values for the average response time of operators. The results show that the response time of the operators affects the reliability indices that are related to the durations of the failure, indicating that a fast decision directly contributes to the system performance. We conclude that the improvement of CPPDS reliability is not only dependent on the electric and communication components, but also dependent on operators' performance.

description: The spin-orbit coupling plays an important role in the spin Hall effect and the topological insulators. In addition, the spin-orbit coupled Bose-Einstein condensates show remarkable quantum many-body phase transition. In this work we tune the exciton polariton condensate by virtue of the Rashba-Dresselhaus (RD) spin-orbit coupling in a liquid-crystal filled microcavity where perovskite CsPbBr3 microplates act as the gain material at room temperature. We realize an artificial gauge field on the CsPbBr3 exciton polariton condensate, which splits the condensates with opposite spins in both momentum and real spaces. Our work paves the way to manipulate the exciton polariton condensate with a synthetic gauge field based on the RD spin-orbit coupling at room temperature.

description: Multiple sclerosis is an inflammatory disorder of the central nervous system. Quantitative MRI has huge potential to provide intrinsic and normative values of tissue properties useful for diagnosis, prognosis and ultimately clinical follow-up of this disease. However, there is a large discrepancy between the clinical observations and how the pathology is exhibited in MRI brain scans. Complementary to brain imaging, the study of multiple sclerosis lesions in the spinal cord has recently gained interest as a potential marker for early physical impairment. Therefore, investigating how the spinal cord is damaged using quantitative imaging, in particular, diffusion MRI, becomes an acute challenge. In this work, we extract average diffusion MRI metrics per vertebral level from spinal cord data acquired from multiple clinical sites. The diffusion-based metrics involved are extracted from the diffusion tensor imaging and Ball-and-Stick models and quantified for every cervical vertebral level using a collection of image processing methods and an atlas-based approach. Then, we perform a statistical analysis study to characterize the feasibility of these metrics to detect lesions. Specifically, we study the usefulness of combining different metrics to improve the accuracy prediction score associated with the presence of multiple sclerosis lesions. We demonstrate the grade of sensitivity to underlying microstructure changes in MS patients of each metric. Ball-and-Stick provides novel information about the MS damage to tissue microstructure. In addition, we show that choosing a subset of metrics: [FA, RD, MD] and [FWW, MD, Stick-AD, RD], which bring complementary information, has significantly increased the prediction score of the presence of the MS lesion in the cervical spinal cord.

description: Let $D$ be a commutative domain with field of fractions $K$ and let $A$ be a torsion-free $D$-algebra such that $A \cap K = D$. The ring of integer-valued polynomials on $A$ with coefficients in $K$ is ${\rm Int}_K(A) = \{f \in K[X] \mid f(A) \subseteq A\}$, which generalizes the classic ring ${\rm Int}(D) = \{f \in K[X] \mid f(D) \subseteq D\}$ of integer-valued polynomials on $D$. The condition on $A \cap K$ implies that $D[X] \subseteq {\rm Int}_K(A) \subseteq {\rm Int}(D)$, and we say that ${\rm Int}_K(A)$ is nontrivial if ${\rm Int}_K(A) \ne D[X]$. For any integral domain $D$, we prove that if $A$ is finitely generated as a $D$-module, then ${\rm Int}_K(A)$ is nontrivial if and only if ${\rm Int}(D)$ is nontrivial. When $A$ is not necessarily finitely generated but $D$ is Dedekind, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for ${\rm Int}_K(A)$ to be nontrivial. These conditions also allow us to prove that, for $D$ Dedekind, the domain ${\rm Int}_K(A)$ has Krull dimension 2.

description: Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there is an increasing demand for portable CT machines worldwide in order to diagnose patients in a variety of settings. This has led to a need for CT image reconstruction algorithms that can produce high quality images in the case when multiple types of geometry parameters have been perturbed. In this paper we present an alternating minimization algorithm to address this issue, where one step minimizes a regularized linear least squares problem, and the other step minimizes a bounded non-linear least squares problem. Additionally, we survey existing methods to accelerate convergence of the algorithm and discuss implementation details. Finally, numerical experiments are conducted to illustrate the effectiveness of the algorithm.

description: Run 2 LHC data show hints of a new resonance in the diphoton distribution at an invariant mass of 750 GeV. We analyse the data in terms of a new boson, extracting information on its properties and exploring theoretical interpretations. Scenarios covered include a narrow resonance and, as preliminary indications suggest, a wider resonance. If the width indications persist, the new particle is likely to belong to a strongly-interacting sector. We also show how compatibility between Run 1 and Run 2 data is improved by postulating the existence of an additional heavy particle, whose decays are possibly related to dark matter.

description: We show that the mass fraction f_atm = 1.35*MHI/M of neutral atomic gas (HI and He) in isolated local disk galaxies of baryonic mass M is well described by a straightforward stability model for flat exponential disks. In the outer disk parts, where gas at the characteristic dispersion of the warm neutral medium is stable in the sense of Toomre (1964), the disk consists of neutral atomic gas; conversely the inner part where this medium would be Toomre-unstable, is dominated by stars and molecules. Within this model, f_atm only depends on a global stability parameter q=j*sigma/(GM), where j is the baryonic specific angular momentum of the disk and sigma the velocity dispersion of the atomic gas. The analytically derived first-order solution f_atm = min{1,2.5q^1.12} provides a good fit to all plausible rotation curves. This model, with no free parameters, agrees remarkably well (+-0.2 dex) with measurements of f_atm in isolated local disk galaxies, even with galaxies that are extremely HI-rich or HI-poor for their mass. The finding that f_atm increases monotonically with q for pure stability reasons offers a powerful intuitive explanation for the mean variation of f_atm with M: in a cold dark matter universe galaxies are expected to follow j~M^(2/3), which implies the average scaling q~M^(-1/3) and hence f_atm~M^(-0.37), in agreement with observations.

description: We study H-alpha, far- and near-ultraviolet luminosity functions (LF) of the sample of 795 luminous compact star-forming galaxies with z<0.65. The parameters of optimal functions for LFs are obtained using the maximum likelihood method and the accuracy of fitting is estimated with the chi-squared method. We find that these LFs cannot be reproduced by the Schechter function because of an excess of very luminous galaxies. On the other hand, the Saunders function, the log-normal distribution and some new related functions are good approximations of LFs. The fact that LFs are not reproduced by the Schechter function can be explained by the propagating star formation. This may result in an excess of luminous starbursts with the mass of a young stellar population above 2*10^8 M_Sun as compared to the LF of the quiescent galaxies. The most luminous compact galaxies are characterised by H-alpha luminosities of > 5*10^{42} erg/s and star formation rates of > 40 M_Sun/yr.

description: We explore the possibility of planet formation in the carbon-rich protoplanetary disks of carbon-enhanced metal-poor (CEMP) stars, possible relics of the early Universe. The chemically anomalous abundance patterns ([C/Fe] $\geq$ 0.7) in this subset of low-mass stars suggest pollution by primordial core-collapsing supernovae (SNe) ejecta that are particularly rich in carbon dust grains. By comparing the dust-settling timescale in the protoplanetary disks of CEMP stars to the expected disk lifetime (assuming dissipation via photoevaporation), we determine the maximum distance $r_{max}$ from the host CEMP star at which carbon-rich planetesimal formation is possible, as a function of the host star's [C/H] abundance. We then use our linear relation between $r_{max}$ and [C/H], along with the theoretical mass-radius relation derived for a solid, pure carbon planet, to characterize potential planetary transits across host CEMP stars. Given that the related transits are detectable with current and upcoming space-based transit surveys, we suggest initiating an observational program to search for carbon planets around CEMP stars in hopes of shedding light on the question of how early planetary systems may have formed after the Big Bang.

description: Economic complexity reflects the amount of knowledge that is embedded in the productive structure of an economy. By combining tools from network science and econometrics, a robust and stable relationship between a country's productive structure and its economic growth has been established. Here we report that not only goods but also services are important for predicting the rate at which countries will grow. By adopting a terminology which classifies manufactured goods and delivered services as products, we investigate the influence of services on the country's productive structure. In particular, we provide evidence that complexity indices for services are in general higher than those for goods, which is reflected in a general tendency to rank countries with developed service sector higher than countries with economy centred on manufacturing of goods. By focusing on country dynamics based on experimental data, we investigate the impact of services on the economic complexity of countries measured in the product space (consisting of both goods and services). Importantly, we show that diversification of service exports and its sophistication can provide an additional route for economic growth in both developing and developed countries.

description: We study the stability of explicit one-step integration schemes for the linear finite element approximation of linear parabolic equations. The derived bound on the largest permissible time step is tight for any mesh and any diffusion matrix within a factor of $2(d+1)$, where $d$ is the spatial dimension. Both full mass matrix and mass lumping are considered. The bound reveals that the stability condition is affected by two factors. The first one depends on the number of mesh elements and corresponds to the classic bound for the Laplace operator on a uniform mesh. The other factor reflects the effects of the interplay of the mesh geometry and the diffusion matrix. It is shown that it is not the mesh geometry itself but the mesh geometry in relation to the diffusion matrix that is crucial to the stability of explicit methods. When the mesh is uniform in the metric specified by the inverse of the diffusion matrix, the stability condition is comparable to the situation with the Laplace operator on a uniform mesh. Numerical results are presented to verify the theoretical findings.

description: Klein-Gordon equations describe the dynamics of waves/particles in sub-atomic scales. For a system of nonlinear Klein-Gordon equations, a systematic analysis of the time evolution for their spatially uniform solutions has been performed \cite{21takei}. In the study, the parameters (mass, wave propagation speed, and the force parameters) are chosen to be symmetric between the two single equations. Symmetric parameter settings are equivalent to assume the interacting two same particles. In this paper, for a system of nonlinear Klein-Gordon equations with asymmetric parameter settings, the time evolution for their spatially uniform solutions are studied. This is equivalent to assume the interacting two different particles. As a result, based on the high precision numerical scheme \cite{22takei}, the existence of divergent and bounded solutions that depend on parameter settings is revealed. The competition, coherence, and decoherence of different waves are shown to appear depending on the choice of asymmetrically-implemented parameter values.

Perturbed Newtonian description of the Lemaître model with non-negligible pressure

description: We study the validity of the Newtonian description of cosmological perturbations using the Lemaitre model, an exact spherically symmetric solution of Einstein's equation. This problem has been investigated in the past for the case of a dust fluid. Here, we extend the previous analysis to the more general case of a fluid with non-negligible pressure, and, for the numerical examples, we consider the case of radiation (P=ρ/3). We find that, even when the density contrast has a nonlinear amplitude, the Newtonian description of the cosmological perturbations using the gravitational potential ψand the curvature potential ϕis valid as long as we consider sub-horizon inhomogeneities. However, the relation ψ+ϕ={\cal O}(ϕ^2), which holds for the case of a dust fluid, is not valid for a relativistic fluid and effective anisotropic stress is generated. This demonstrates the usefulness of the Lemaitre model which allows us to study in an exact nonlinear fashion the onset of anisotropic stress in fluids with non-negligible pressure. We show that this happens when the characteristic scale of the inhomogeneity is smaller than the sound horizon and that the deviation is caused by the nonlinear effect of the fluid's fast motion. We also find that ψ+ϕ= \max[{\cal O}(ϕ^2),{\cal O}(c_s^2ϕ\, δ)] for an inhomogeneity with density contrast δwhose characteristic scale is smaller than the sound horizon, unless w is close to -1, where w and c_s are the equation of state parameter and the sound speed of the fluid, respectively. On the other hand, we expect ψ+ϕ={\cal O}(ϕ^2) to hold for an inhomogeneity whose characteristic scale is larger than the sound horizon, unless the amplitude of the inhomogeneity is large and w is close to -1.

description: We present a general formula for the topological part of the effective action for quantum Hall systems in higher dimensions, including fluctuations of the gauge field and metric around background fields of a specified topological class. The result is based on a procedure of integrating up from the Dolbeault index density which applies for the degeneracies of Landau levels, combined with some input from the standard descent procedure for anomalies. Features of the topological action in (2+1), (4+1), (6+1) dimensions, including the contribution due to gravitational anomalies, are discussed in some detail.

description: Many coastal areas currently at risk of flooding in New Zealand will in the not-too-distant future suffer increased intensity and frequency of Climate Change-Related Flooding Hazards (CCRFH) (Church et al., 2013; Woodruff et al., 2013). STRAND is a (Royal Society of New Zealand) Marsden-funded project (2021-2024) that aims to forecast effects of CCRFH on residential property values. The components of the project include financial modelling, multicriteria decision analysis (Coastal Asset Risk Index: CARI) and physical modelling. The latter applies projections of sea level rise relative to terrain data and the situated properties, incorporating outputs from hydrogeological (groundwater) models, tidal (efficiency) data and precipitation forecasts. This abstract updates on progress with a GIS-based physical model of future flooding in South Dunedin (Nguyen et al, 2019). A pilot version of the model has been implemented (Moore et al, 2022), addressing flooding due to CCRFH through bathtub (SLR applied directly to the DEM relative to MHWS-MSL) and geometric (as above, but relative to a groundwater surface model and tidal efficiency) modes. For both, Monte Carlo simulation was applied to model uncertainty in the DEM, SLR scenario and groundwater surface. In addressing limitations of the pilot model, we will document progress on a thorough analysis of sources of uncertainty stated as before, and architecture choice (climate change scenarios, inundation models, zero baselines and spatial resolutions), prior to a comprehensive model run using Nesi high-performance computing facilities. This phase is applied to the South Dunedin scenario only, with the optimal parameters for uncertainty modelling a architectures tested being used for Christchurch and Tauranga scenarios, along with precipitation model output.

description: In a layered and strongly anisotropic superconductor the hybrid modes provided by the propagation of electromagnetic waves in the matter identify two well separate energy scales connected to the large in-plane plasma frequency and to the soft out-of-plane Josephson plasmon. Despite the wide interest in their detection and manipulation by means of different experimental protocols, a unified description of plasma waves valid at arbitrary energy and momentum is still lacking. Here we provide a complete description of generalized plasma waves in a layered superconductors by taking advantage of their connection to the gauge-invariant superconducting phase. We show that the anisotropy of the superfluid response leads to two intertwined hybrid light-matter modes with mixed longitudinal and transverse character, while a purely longitudinal plasmon is only recovered for wavevectors larger than the crossover scale set in by the plasma-frequencies anisotropy. Interestingly, below such scale both modes appears with equal weight in the physical density response. Our results open a promising perspective for plasmonic applications made possible by the next-generation spectroscopic techniques able to combine sub-micron momentum resolution with THz energy resolution.
