description: Modeling sequential and parallel composition of effectful computations has been investigated in a variety of languages for a long time. In particular, the popular do-notation provides a lightweight effect embedding for any instance of a monad. Idiom bracket notation, on the other hand, provides an embedding for applicatives. First, while monads force effects to be executed sequentially, ignoring potential for parallelism, applicatives do not support sequential effects. Composing sequential with parallel effects remains an open problem. This is even more of an issue as real programs consist of a combination of both sequential and parallel segments. Second, common notations do not support invoking effects in direct-style, instead forcing a rigid structure upon the code.
 In this paper, we propose a mixed applicative/monadic notation that retains parallelism where possible, but allows sequentiality where necessary. We leverage a direct-style notation where sequentiality or parallelism is derived from the structure of the code. We provide a mechanisation of our effectful language in Coq and prove that our compilation approach retains the parallelism of the source program.

description: Human-robot communication scenarios are becoming increasingly important. In this paper, we investigate the differences between human-human and human-robot communication in the context of persuasive communication. We ran an experiment using the door-in-the-face technique in a hu-manrobot context. In our experiment, participants communicated with a robot that performed the door-in-the-face technique, in which the communicating agent asks for an "extreme" favor first and a for a small favor shortly after to increase affirmative response to the second request. Our results show a surprisingly high acceptance rate for the extreme request and a smaller acceptance rate for the small request compared to the original study of Cialdini et al., so our results differ from the classical human-human door-in-the-face experiments. This suggests that human-robot persuasive communication differs from human-human communication, which is surprising given related work. We discuss potential reasons for our observations and outline the next research steps to answer the question whether the door-in-the-face and similar persuasive techniques would be effective if applied by robots. © 2023 Copyright for this paper by its authors.

description: Human Salmonella infections are common; most infections are self-limiting but severe disease may occur. Antimicrobial agents, while not essential for the treatment of Salmonella gastroenteritis, are essential for the treatment of thousands of patients each year with invasive infections. Fluoroquinolones and third-generation cephalosporins are the drugs-of-choice for invasive Salmonella infections in humans; alternative antimicrobial choices are limited by increasing antimicrobial resistance and less desirable pharmacodynamic properties. Little correlation is noted between the antimicrobial resistance patterns of isolates collected from persons with Salmonella infections and antimicrobial agents used for the treatment of Salmonella infections in humans. Direct evidence is available which demonstrates that antimicrobial resistant Salmonella result from the use of antimicrobial agents in food animals and these antimicrobial resistant Salmonella are subsequently transmitted to humans, usually through the food supply. Because of the adverse health consequences in humans and animals associated with the increasing prevalence of antimicrobial resistant Salmonella, there is an urgent need to emphasize nonantimicrobial strategies, such as improved sanitation and hygiene, to develop guidelines for the prudent usage of antimicrobial agents, and to restrict the use of fluoroquinolones in food animals to minimize the development of antimicrobial resistance and dissemination of antimicrobial resistant pathogens.

description: Yes! As veterinarians we positively impact human and animal health every day by using antimicrobials to treat or prevent disease. It is also necessary to recognize that this use may contribute to susceptibility shifts in pathogens with zoonotic potential. As a profession, and as an industry, we need to work toward carefully determining both positive and negative effects due to antimicrobial use in animal agriculture. Our multiple responsibilities are best summarized by the veterinarians oath. "Being admitted to the profession of veterinary medicine, I solemnly swear to use my scientific knowledge and skills for the benefit of society through the protection of animal health, the relief of animal suffering, the conservation of livestock resources, the promotion of public health, and the advancement of medical knowledge ...

description: Purpose: The analysis of difficulties in understanding the information content of an electrocardiogram revealed indications that these are also caused by misconceptions about cardiac excitation phenomena. Therefore, a re-analysis of these research data is intended to deepen the understanding that medical students have of cardiac excitation. Furthermore, the concept of excitation represented in academic textbooks will be examined from an educational perspective. Methods: In order to diagnose learning potentials, a previous study on ECG comprehension collected statements from students using problem-centred, guideline-based interviews. These data were subjected to a re-analysis. The evaluation was based on a qualitative content analysis. Ideas of heart excitation and the underlying basal cognitions were analysed in the light of the Conceptual Metaphor theory using systematic metaphor analysis. Conceptual metaphors, which structure the understanding of this abstract fact, were identified. In a similar proced-ure, scientific ideas from textbooks were examined, too. The model of educational reconstruction served as the research framework. Results: On the basis of the data from exemplary cases, it will be shown which subject-related inappropriate ideas students of human medicine can construct when dealing with the phenomenon of excitation in a cardiological context. For example, excitation can be misinterpreted synonymously with the extracellular potential differences responsible for the development of an ECG. Sometimes, excitation is even under-stood as the tone of the myocardium. Analyzing the educational potential of academic textbooks reveals possible barriers to understanding in that excitation is not clearly defined in terms of the de-and repolarization of heart muscle cells. Moreover, both students and textbooks show an inappropriate idea of repolarization. Conclusion: The presented analysis of learning and teaching potentials offers the opportunity to identify difficulties in understanding with regard to an appropriate concept of cardiac excitation. It also helps to develop conclusions for educational interventions.

description: Sampling and dilution of flame-generated, fractal-like ZrO2 aerosols is investigated by aerosol mass/mobility measurements and microscopy. Two broadly used sampler configurations, a straight-tube (ST) and a hole-in-a-tube (HiaT), at three different in-flow orientations and hole diameters are evaluated. The mobility size distributions, mass-mobility exponent, Dfm, prefactor, kfm, and average primary particle diameter are obtained at 10–60 cm height above the burner (HAB) of fuel-rich (hot) and fuel-lean (cold) spray flames by differential mobility analyzer (DMA) and aerosol particle mass (APM) measurements using a recent power law for fractal-like particles. The primary particle diameter, agglomerate size distributions, and corresponding standard deviations from aerosol measurements are compared to those by counting images of particles collected by thermophoretic sampling along the flame centerline. Once new particle formation is completed in the flame, both sampler configurations result in nearly identical particle size distributions. Furthermore, all HiaT samplers result in similar mobility size distributions at all orientations, regardless of hole size. Sampling using a downstream in-flow hole orientation results in slightly larger Sauter mean diameters than those obtained by upstream or sidestream ones, especially for the cold flame. Additionally, a correlation is developed by Discrete Element Modeling (DEM) for the agglomerate Dfm evolution to its asymptotic value of 2.2 as function of the average number of primary particles per agglomerate, nva, or the relative particle density with pre-exponential constant kfm = 1.18, regardless of primary particle size. This is in good agreement with an experimentally obtained correlation in terms of relative particle density as well as with experimental data for ZrO2, Ag, and Cu nanoparticles. © 2016 American Association for Aerosol Research

description: Abstract: This study investigates how digital platforms shape consumer behavior in sports streaming services, focusing on the interplay between platform characteristics, user engagement, and consumer loyalty. Employing a quantitative approach, we surveyed 320 sports streaming users and analyzed the data using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). Results reveal that platform usability and content quality significantly influence user engagement, strongly predicting consumer loyalty. Notably, subscription models moderate the engagement-loyalty relationship, offering new insights into the dynamics of digital sports consumption. This research contributes to the field by integrating multiple theoretical perspectives into a comprehensive model of consumer behavior in sports streaming services. The findings provide valuable guidance for platform developers and content creators in enhancing user experiences and fostering loyalty in the competitive landscape of digital sports media.

description: Intercell moves are caused by exceptional parts which need to be processed in multiple cells. Intercell cooperation disrupts the cellular manufacturing philosophy of creating independent cells, but is essential to lower the costs for enterprises. This article addresses an intercell scheduling problem considering limited transportation capability. To solve this problem, a two-stage ant colony optimization approach is proposed, in which pre-scheduling and re-scheduling are performed sequentially. To evaluate and optimize the interaction of production and transportation, a transportation benefit function is presented, according to which the scheduling solutions are adjusted. The computational results show that the transportation benefit function is more effective than other strategies, and the proposed approach has significant advantages over CPLEX in both the production dimension and the transportation dimension.

description: We report first study of transverse momentum ($p_\mathrm{T}$) spectra for $π^{\pm}$, $K^{\pm}$, $p$, and $\bar{p}$ in isobar, $^{96}_{44}$Ru+$^{96}_{44}$Ru and $^{96}_{40}$Zr+$^{96}_{40}$Zr, collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\mathrm{NN}}} = 200$ GeV using a multi-phase transport (AMPT) model. Particle yields ($dN/dy$), average transverse momenta ($\langle p_\mathrm{T} \rangle$), and particle ratios are reported in various collision systems with different parameterizations of the Woods-Saxon (WS) distribution. We observed a maximum difference of 5% in the particle yields in peripheral collisions when we included a quadrupole and octupole deformation and a nuclear size difference between the isobars. The $π^{-}$/$π^{+}$ ratio is smaller in Ru+Ru collisions compared to Zr+Zr collisions indicating an effect of isospin due to difference in number of protons and neutrons between the two nuclei. The $K^{-}$/$K^{+}$ ratio is same in both the systems indicating the dominance of the pair production mechanism in the kaon production. The $\bar{p}/p$ ratio is further smaller in Ru+Ru collisions than Zr+Zr collisions, indicating the effect of baryon stopping in addition to the isospin effect. A system size dependence is observed in $dN/dy$ and $\langle p_\mathrm{T} \rangle$ when we compare the results from isobar collisions with Au+Au and U+U collisions.

description: Background: Best vitelliform macular dystrophy (BVMD) is an autosomal dominant hereditary retinal disease caused by BEST1 gene mutations. Macular hole is a rare complication of BVMD. We are the first to report a BVMD case with bilateral macular holes and a new onset vitelliform lesion after a vitrectomy surgery. Materials and methods: A woman with a history of BVMD suffered from a 1-year vision loss in both eyes. Complete ophthalmologic examinations and BEST1 gene screening were performed on the patient. Results: Ophthalmoscopic examinations revealed bilateral macular holes with atrophic photoreceptors and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). A disease-causing BEST1 mutation N296S (c.887A>G) was detected. A vitrectomy surgery with internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling and gas tamponade was performed on the right eye. The macular hole closed and maintained stable for 1 year. A new extramacular vitelliform lesion was observed during the follow-up. Conclusions: Macular hole is an unusual but severe complication in the end stage of BVMD as the macular thinning is accompanied with vitreous traction. A vitrectomy surgery is effective to close the hole while further study is required to elucidate the pathophysiology of macular hole formation and the new vitelliform lesion in such a case.

description: We study hairy black hole solutions in Einstein(--Maxwell)--scalar--Gauss--Bonnet theory. The scalar coupling function includes quadratic and quartic terms, so the gravitational action has a U(1) symmetry. We argued that when the effective mass of the scalar field is at the critical value, the non-hairy black holes transform into hairy black holes in a symmetry-broken vacuum via spontaneous symmetry breaking. These hairy black holes are stable under scalar perturbations, and the Goldstone bosons are trivial. Moreover, we found that the spontaneous symmetry breaking associated with local U(1) is unlikely to occur in this theory.

description: We study the stability of the Schrödinger equation generated by time-dependent Hamiltonians with constant form domain. That is, we bound the difference between solutions of the Schrödinger equation by the difference of their Hamiltonians. The stability theorem obtained in this article provides a sharper bound than those previously obtained in the literature. This makes it a potentially useful tool for time-dependent problems in Quantum Physics, in particular for Quantum Control. We apply this result to prove two theorems about global approximate controllability of infinite-dimensional quantum systems. These results improve and generalise existing results on infinite-dimensional quantum control.

description: What are the patterns and influences on the lifespan of the building stock? This paper presents (1) the reconstitution of an urban building stock composed of more than 60 000 buildings, (2) the analysis of the development of this stock over a period of 180 years (constructions and demolitions), and (3) the analysis of building mortality patterns and reasons for demolition resulting from historic decisions and regimes. A method to reconstitute the stock from different data sources is presented. The mortality models take into account not only the present demolition rates and the age distribution of the ‘survivors' but also the disappeared buildings. The main results are new insights into the lifespan behaviour of buildings according to their period of construction (cohorts) as well as the reasons for demolition. The demolitions do not show specific explanation patterns, but changing influences of the construction activities over time. The average demolition age of all buildings in Zurich, Switzerland, decreased from over 200 years to fewer than 70 years. A total of 18 000 buildings have been demolished over the 180-year period. The presented methods and results can be integrated in multidimensional geographical information systems (GIS) as comprehensive planning, scenario and regulatory tools.

description: In this paper, we study topological numbers for five-, six- and seven-dimensional anti-de Sitter black holes in the ghost-free massive gravity. We find that when the black holes are charged, they have the same topological number. The topological numbers for the uncharged black holes are 0 or 1, and the specific values are determined by the values of the black holes' parameters. Since $k$ and $c_ 0^2c_2 m^2 $ appear together in the generalized free energy in the form of $k +c_ 0^2c_2 m^2 $, where $k$ characterizes the horizon curvature and $c_2 m^2 $ is the coefficient of the second term of massive potential associated with the graviton mass, this result is applicable to the black holes with the spherical, Ricci flat or hyperbolic horizons. This work shows that the parameters of the ghost-free massive gravity play an important role in topological classes of black holes.

description: Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of golimumab + methotrexate (MTX) in Japanese patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods: Japanese patients with active RA despite MTX were randomized to placebo + MTX (Group 1, n = 88), golimumab 50 mg + MTX (Group 2, n = 86), or golimumab 100 mg + MTX (Group 3, n = 87). Patients with <20% improvement in swollen/tender joint counts entered early escape at week 16. At week 24, all remaining placebo patients crossed over to golimumab 50 mg. Efficacy assessments included ACR20, DAS28-ESR, and HAQ-DI. Radiographic progression was assessed with the van der Heijde-modified Sharp (vdH-S) score. Results: ACR20 response rates in Group 1, Group 2, and Group 3 were 67.9, 86.1, and 82.4%, respectively, at week 52 and were maintained through week 104 (87.1, 94.0, and 88.7%) and week 156 (97.1, 94.1, and 89.5%). Proportions of patients with good/moderate DAS28-ESR response or clinically meaningful improvement in HAQ-DI were also maintained through week 156. The majority of patients did not experience radiographic progression through week 156. Among 257 golimumab-treated patients, 251 (97.7%) had ≥1 AE; 54 (21.0%) had ≥1 serious AE through week 156. Infections were the most common type of AE. Conclusions: Response to golimumab + MTX was maintained over 3 years in Japanese patients with active RA despite MTX. Safety results were consistent with the known safety profile of golimumab.

Density Matrix Renormalization Group computations, exact diagonalization, and instanton theory provide a consistent description of this very strongly interacting system, and show good agreement with experiments. Experimentally extracted and theoretically computed tunneling amplitudes exhibit a scaling collapse. Collective quantum fluctuations renormalize the tunneling, and substantially enhance it as the number of electrons increases.

description: The security of computer systems typically relies on a hardware root of trust. As vulnerabilities in hardware can have severe implications on a system, there is a need for techniques to support security verification activities. Assertion-based verification is a popular verification technique that involves capturing design intent in a set of assertions that can be used in formal verification or testing-based checking. However, writing security-centric assertions is a challenging task. In this work, we investigate the use of emerging large language models (LLMs) for code generation in hardware assertion generation for security, where primarily natural language prompts, such as those one would see as code comments in assertion files, are used to produce SystemVerilog assertions. We focus our attention on a popular LLM and characterize its ability to write assertions out of the box, given varying levels of detail in the prompt. We design an evaluation framework that generates a variety of prompts, and we create a benchmark suite comprising real-world hardware designs and corresponding golden reference assertions that we want to generate with the LLM.

description: Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of golimumab + methotrexate (MTX) in Japanese patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods: Japanese patients with active RA despite MTX were randomized to placebo + MTX (Group 1, n = 88), golimumab 50 mg + MTX (Group 2, n = 86), or golimumab 100 mg + MTX (Group 3, n = 87). Patients with <20% improvement in swollen/tender joint counts entered early escape at week 16. At week 24, all remaining placebo patients crossed over to golimumab 50 mg. Efficacy assessments included ACR20, DAS28-ESR, and HAQ-DI. Radiographic progression was assessed with the van der Heijde-modified Sharp (vdH-S) score. Results: ACR20 response rates in Group 1, Group 2, and Group 3 were 67.9, 86.1, and 82.4%, respectively, at week 52 and were maintained through week 104 (87.1, 94.0, and 88.7%) and week 156 (97.1, 94.1, and 89.5%). Proportions of patients with good/moderate DAS28-ESR response or clinically meaningful improvement in HAQ-DI were also maintained through week 156. The majority of patients did not experience radiographic progression through week 156. Among 257 golimumab-treated patients, 251 (97.7%) had ≥1 AE; 54 (21.0%) had ≥1 serious AE through week 156. Infections were the most common type of AE. Conclusions: Response to golimumab + MTX was maintained over 3 years in Japanese patients with active RA despite MTX. Safety results were consistent with the known safety profile of golimumab.

description: Doped Iron Chalcogenide (FeCh) superconductors are extensively studied in the context of topological superconductivity. However, the evidence of topological surface states in electrical transport measurements of the doped FeCh system is yet warranted. In the present letter, we performed angle-dependent magneto transport measurements on a single crystal of a doped FeCh system, i.e., FeSe$_{0.5}$Te$_{0.5}$. A non-saturating linear magnetoresistance (MR) has been observed under the magnetic field up to 14 T in the normal state of FeSe$_{0.5}$Te$_{0.5}$. The MR is shown to possess anisotropy, which indicates the presence of topological surface states in FeSe$_{0.5}$Te$_{0.5}$. Angle-dependent Magneto-conductivity (MC) at low magnetic fields has been modelled by Hikami Larkin Nagaoka (HLN) formalism, which shows the presence of weak antilocalization (WAL) effect in FeSe$_{0.5}$Te$_{0.5}$. The observed WAL effect is found to be 2D in nature through angle-dependent magneto transport measurements. Theoretical calculations based on Density Functional Theory (DFT) are also performed to get more confidence on the presence of topological surface states in FeSe$_{0.5}$Te$_{0.5}$.

description: The cumulative total of persons forced to leave their country for fear of persecution or organized violence reached an unprecedented 24.5 million by the end of 2015. Providing equitable access to appropriate health services for these highly diverse newcomers poses challenges for receiving countries. In this case study, we illustrate the importance of translating epidemiology into policy to address the health needs of refugees by highlighting examples of what works as well as identifying important policy-relevant gaps in knowledge. First, we formed an international working group of epidemiologists and health services researchers to identify available literature on the intersection of epidemiology, policy, and refugee health. Second, we created a synopsis of findings to inform a recommendation for integration of policy and epidemiology to support refugee health in the United States and other high-income receiving countries. Third, we identified eight key areas to guide the involvement of epidemiologists in addressing refugee health concerns. The complexity and uniqueness of refugee health issues, and the need to develop sustainable management information systems, require epidemiologists to expand their repertoire of skills to identify health patterns among arriving refugees, monitor access to appropriately designed health services, address inequities, and communicate with policy makers and multidisciplinary teams.

description: The quantum Rabi model describes the coupling of a two-state system to a bosonic field mode. Recent theoretical work has pointed out that a generalized periodic version of this model, which maps onto Hamiltonians applicable in superconducting qubit settings, can be quantum simulated with cold trapped atoms. Here, we experimentally demonstrate atomic dynamics predicted by the periodic quantum Rabi model far in the deep strong coupling regime. The two-state system is represented by two Bloch bands of cold atoms in an optical lattice, and the bosonic mode by oscillations in a superimposed optical dipole trap potential. The observed dynamics beyond the usual quantum Rabi physics becomes relevant when the edge of the Brillouin zone is reached, and evidence for collapse and revival of the initial state is revealed at extreme coupling conditions.
CIDER: Context sensitive sentiment analysis for short-form text

description: Researchers commonly perform sentiment analysis on large collections of short texts like tweets, Reddit posts or newspaper headlines that are all focused on a specific topic, theme or event. Usually, general-purpose sentiment analysis methods are used. These perform well on average but miss the variation in meaning that happens across different contexts, for example, the word "active" has a very different intention and valence in the phrase "active lifestyle" versus "active volcano". This work presents a new approach, CIDER (Context Informed Dictionary and sEmantic Reasoner), which performs context-sensitive linguistic analysis, where the valence of sentiment-laden terms is inferred from the whole corpus before being used to score the individual texts. In this paper, we detail the CIDER algorithm and demonstrate that it outperforms state-of-the-art generalist unsupervised sentiment analysis techniques on a large collection of tweets about the weather. CIDER is also applicable to alternative (non-sentiment) linguistic scales. A case study on gender in the UK is presented, with the identification of highly gendered and sentiment-laden days. We have made our implementation of CIDER available as a Python package: https://pypi.org/project/ciderpolarity/.

description: With this papper we aim to analyze the ways in which some people as self-employed, workers of the streets, such as porters, sellers and beggars, articulated his days in the city of Fortaleza, in the end of nineteenth century, between the political and regulatory joints of Ceará province. Despite of several attempts by the political, medical and establish intellectual high society discourses and practices against the massive presence of this kind of sel-employed, the disjointed work and the sick body of the popular, these, increasingly, were present through the work carried out, whether in times of drought, is the period of the belle époque of Fortaleza. Through the analysis of the sources, discusses to typify poor and informal workers, at the time when the economic elite of Fortaleza wanted to establish commercial modernity in this city. For the development of this article, we used literature and bibliographical research. Was performed in addition to the survey data of the time as another primary sources (Acting Secretary of the Business of Interior of Ceará Province Report, Match Proceedings of the Municipal Stewardship of Fortaleza, Correspondence Minutes of city Hall of Fortaleza); and secondary sources (Postures Code of the City of Fortaleza); and chronic books and besides memories of the city of Fortaleza.
