description: The goal of this study is to use quantile regression (QR) to find predictors of fisher's catch and compare it with OLS regression. The heterogeneous association across the different quantiles of the catch distribution was investigated using QR analysis. The findings reveal that the effect changes depending on where you are in the catch distribution. In the OLS, there are several non-significant predictors that appear to be significant in quantile regression. By OLS regression, demographic variables have little effect on fisher's catch; but, in quantile regression, marital status, fishing hours, and use of motorized boats appeared to have a relatively high impact at the top of the distribution.

description: This paper briefly reviews several models of externality which provide the theoretical basis of environmental economics. An externality may be defined as a situation where the output or action of a firm or individual affects the production possibilities or welfare of another firm or individual who has no direct control over the initial level of the output or activity. Pollution, resulting from the disposal of residual wastes, is a classic example of externality. Three static models examine the optimality conditions for (1) a two-person externality (2) a many-person externality (where the externality takes the form of a "pure public bad"), and (3) a two-plant polluter. In the case of a two-person externality negotialtion between the affected parties may lead to the optimal level for the externality regardless of the initial assignment of property rights. In the many-person case environmental policy, either direct controls or economic incentives, may be required to achieve optimal allocation of resources. Economic incentives may take the form of per unit taxes on emissions or transferable discharge rights. In the third model it is shown how a tax can induce optimal (least cost) treatment from a two-plant polluter. Two dynamic models examine the cases where (1) a pollution stock may accumulate or degrade according to rates of discharge and biodegredation and (2) a toxic residual must be transported from sites where it is generated to sites where it may be safely stored. The latter problem poses environmental risks from spills in transit or leakage at storage sites. While radioactive and toxic wastes are likely to continue to be regulated by direct controls some of more "benign" residuals are suitable for regulation by economics incentives. Effluent taxes in France and the Netherlands, transferable discharge permits on the Fox River in Wisconsin, transferable stove permits in Telluride, Colorado and the EPA's emission-offset policy are indications that economic incentives will play a greater role in the future management of environmental quality.

description: Vaccine hesitancy seriously hinders herd immunity. We explored the determinants of parental hesitancy to vaccinate children against Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) in China. A population-based self-administered online questionnaire evaluating parental hesitancy in vaccinating their children against COVID-19 was conducted in Taizhou, China. Of the 2463 parents who received the invitation, 1788 (72.6%) responded to the survey. Of the repondents, 52.5% were hesitant. Mothers exhibited a greater proportion of vaccine hesitancy than fathers did (57.5% vs. 41.7%, P < 0.001). Multiple logistic regression analysis indicated that parents with children under 18 years of age (OR = 0.94, 95%CI: 0.90–0.99), lower knowledge scores about COVID-19 vaccination (Q1: OR = 1.92, 95%CI: 1.37–2.69; Q2: OR = 1.51, 95%CI: 1.10–2.08), lower awareness of the permission of vaccinating children (OR = 1.74, 95%CI: 1.36–2.23) and hesitancy to inoculate themselves (OR = 8.18, 95%CI: 6.48–10.33) were associated with parental hesitancy to inoculate their children. Results also revealed the disparity between fathers and mothers regarding associated factors. This study found that a substantial proportion of parents reported being hesitant to vaccinate children against COVID-19, implying the necessity of comprehensive assessment and health education programs for vaccination systems in China.

description: Acute kidney injury (AKI) requiring continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), secondary to cardiovascular disease and sepsis, is associated with high in-hospital mortality. Although studies have examined cardiovascular disease and sepsis in AKI, the association between AKI and hepatic functional impairment remains unclear. We hypothesized that hepatic function markers would predict mortality in patients undergoing CRRT. We included 1,899 CRRT patients from a multi-centre database. In Phase 1, participants were classified according to the total bilirubin (T-Bil) levels on the day of, and 3 days after, CRRT initiation: T-Bil < 1.2, 1.2 ≤ T-Bil < 2, and T-Bil ≥ 2 mg/dL. In Phase 2, propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to examine the effect of a T-Bil cutoff of 1.2 mg/dL (supported by the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score); creating two groups based on a T-Bil cutoff of 1.2 mg/dL 3 days after CRRT initiation. The primary endpoint was total mortality 90 days after CRRT initiation, which was 34.7% (n = 571). In Phase 1, the T-Bil, aspartate transaminase (AST), alanine transaminase (ALT), and AST/ALT (De Ritis ratio) levels at CRRT initiation were not associated with the prognosis, while T-Bil, AST, and the De Ritis ratio 3 days after CRRT initiation were independent factors. In Phase 2, T-Bil ≥1.2 mg/dL on day 3 was a significant independent prognostic factor, even after PSM [hazard ratio: 2.41 (95% CI; 1.84-3.17), p < 0.001]. T-Bil ≥1.2 mg/dL 3 days after CRRT initiation predicted 90-day mortality. Changes in hepatic function markers in acute renal failure may enable stratification of high-risk patients.

description: Muon capture isotope production (MuCIP) using negative ordinary muon capture reactions (OMC) is used to efficiently produce various kinds of nuclear isotopes for both fundamental and applied science studies. The large capture probability of muon into a nucleus, together with the high intensity muon beam, make it possible to produce nuclear isotopes in the order of 10^{9-10} per second depending on the muon beam intensity. Radioactive isotopes (RIs) produced by MuCIP are complementary to those produced by photon and neutron capture reactions and are used for various science and technology applications. MuCIP on ^{Nat}Mo by using the RCNP MuSIC \muon beam is presented to demonstrate the feasibility of MuCIP. Nuclear isotopes produced by MuCIP are evaluated by using a pre-equilibrium (PEQ) and equilibrium (EQ) proton neutron emission model. Radioactive $^{99}$Mo isotopes and the metastable ^{99m}Tc isotopes, which are used extensively in medical science, are produced by MuCIP on ^{Nat}Mo and ^{100}Mo.

description: Image captioning models are usually evaluated on their ability to describe a held-out set of images, not on their ability to generalize to unseen concepts. We study the problem of compositional generalization, which measures how well a model composes unseen combinations of concepts when describing images. State-of-the-art image captioning models show poor generalization performance on this task. We propose a multi-task model to address the poor performance, that combines caption generation and image--sentence ranking, and uses a decoding mechanism that re-ranks the captions according their similarity to the image. This model is substantially better at generalizing to unseen combinations of concepts compared to state-of-the-art captioning models.

description: The importance of multifunctional farming activities is clearly demonstrated by the significant changes made to the EU’s Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) in its rural development policy. Multifunctionality has received a lot of attention over the last decade from scholars and policy-makers. A new rural paradigm stands out as the interrelationship between agriculture, landscape protection and social services (e.g. Social Agriculture, Teaching Farms, Social Farms, Horticultural therapy and so on). Models based on forms of solidarity or trust could be a crucial driver for fostering the competitiveness of rural areas. Evaluation tools are needed for analyzing the current system and for improving the social approach. The aim of this paper is to provide an analysis of the educational and social opportunities deriving from multifunctional agriculture. Furthermore, we define indicators focusing on the social/education dimension. The paper is structured as follows: after a review of literature and policies on the social/health dimension of rural development, we investigate the role of didactic agriculture and the ‘helping relationship’ and so we define new Non-Commodity Outputs (NCOs). In addition, starting from the house of functions model by Fleskens (2009), we define a Multifunctional Agricultural House taking into account the educational and network dimension of an agricultural system; we then select indicators having an educational, social and helping dimension. Finally, conclusions are drawn.
Production of ultra-energetic cosmic rays through the decay of super-heavy X particles

description: We present a new and complete numerical analysis of the decay of super-heavy X particles, assumed to be the origin of cosmic rays with energy beyond the GZK cut-off. The decay of X initiates a ``parton shower'', where we include all degrees of freedom contained in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). Since at energies near $M_X$ all gauge couplings are of similar magnitude, we include all of them, as well as third generation Yukawa couplings. Technically the shower development is described through the DGLAP evolution of the relevant fragmentation functions (FFs). We also carefully treat the decay of the superparticles as well as heavy SM particles created in the shower. Nonperturbative physics is parameterized through the input values of the FFs, which we take from the literature. The final result is the the complete spectrum of all stable particles at the very end of the shower : protons, electrons, neutrinos, photons and neutralinos, for an energy range from $10^{-7} M_X$ to $M_X$. In particular, the flux of high-energy neutralinos is sizable ; it might serve as ``smoking gun'' signature for this kind of scenario.

description: We notice that looking for $ν_e \to ν_τ$ at the same time as $ν_e \to ν_μ$ oscillations could significantly help to reduce the errors in the leptonic CP-violating phase $δ$ measurement. We show how the $ν_e \to ν_μ$ (``golden'') and $ν_e \to ν_τ$ (``silver'') transitions observed at an OPERA-like 2 Kton lead-emulsion detector at L = 732 Km, in combination with the $ν_e \to ν_μ$ transitions observed at a 40 Kton magnetized iron detector with a baseline of L = 3000 Km, strongly reduce the so-called $(θ_{13}, δ)$ ambiguity. We also show how a moderate increase in the OPERA-like detector mass (4 Kton instead of 2 Kton) completely eliminates the clone regions even for small values of $θ_{13}$.

description: Understanding consumer behaviour in rural tourism is a necessary condition for the suc- cessful diversification of any rural socio-economic system. This paper aims to analyse the consumer behaviour of tourists and residents in an Italian marginal rural area in order to verify the opportunities for sustainable local development through rural tourism activities. First of all we give some conceptual consideration to the notion of rural tourism and the relationship with sustainable local development. Secondly, we examine the suitability of conjoint analysis for predicting consumer behaviour in relation to rural tourism. Finally, we report on a survey which we carried out in a rural area located in a region of North-Eastern Italy: the Natisone Valley. The results provided insights into how each type of characteristic of rural sites competes for the selection of destination. In particular, the most important attribute in selecting rural sites for tourism is the availability of information. These results could provide useful insight fo decision makers, in particular as regards local planning strategies. We discuss the results with emphasis on the implications for marketing of rural tourism. In fact, recommendations are made in view of the findings, specifically focusing on internal marketing strategies.

description: We study the depinning transition of driven interfaces in thin ferromagnetic films driven by external magnetic fields. Approaching the transition point the correlation length increases with decreasing driving. If the correlation length becomes of the order of the film thickness a crossover to two dimensional behavior occurs. From the corresponding scaling analysis we determine the exponents characterizing the transition of the three dimensional system.

We show that, when the fundamental group is finite and the Lagrangian has no stationary orbit at the Mañé critical energy level, there is a waist on every energy level just above the Mañé critical value. With a suitable perturbation with a potential, we show that there are infinitely many periodic orbits on every energy level just above the Mañé critical value, and on almost every energy level just below. Finally, we prove the Tonelli analogue of a closed geodesics result due to Ballmann-Thorbergsson-Ziller.

description: Although handgrip strength is associated with all-cause mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), whether this relationship is dose-related is unknown. Therefore, we examined dose-response relationships between handgrip strength and all-cause mortality in CKD patients based on previous studies by meta-analysis. Data sources included three electronic databases (PubMed, Web of Science, and Embase) from inception through October 2023. The included cohort was a CKD population not limited to disease stage, and their handgrip strength was objectively measured. Two researchers independently screened studies, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias. We utilized estimates of handgrip strength categories using robust-error meta-regression (REMR), pooled study-specific estimates, and established dose-response relationships. Outcomes of interest included only all-cause mortality. A total of 18 studies with 4810 participants (aged 47–71 years) were included. REMR modeling showed a U-shaped trend of association between handgrip strength and all-cause mortality in patients with CKD. Higher handgrip strength values, from 10 kg to approximately 28 kg, were associated with lower mortality risk. After that, the risk of death increased slightly. A U-shaped association exists between handgrip strength and all-cause mortality risk in CKD patients. Future studies with quantitative measurements for each CKD stage will help to determine precise relative risk estimates between handgrip strength and mortality risk in patients with different stages of CKD.

description: Vascular calcification (VC) is highly prevalent in patients undergoing hemodialysis, and is a significant contributor to the mortality rate. Therefore, biomarkers that can accurately predict the onset of VC are urgently required. Our study aimed to investigate serum miR-15a levels in relation to VC and to develop a predictive model for VC in patients undergoing hemodialysis at the Beijing Friendship Hospital hemodialysis center between 1 January 2019 and 31 December 2020. The patients were categorized into two groups: VC and non-VC. Logistic regression (LR) models were used to examine the risk factors associated with VC. Additionally, we developed an miR-15a-based nomogram based on the results of the multivariate LR analysis. A total of 138 patients under hemodialysis were investigated (age: 58.41 ± 13.22 years; 54 males). VC occurred in 79 (57.2%) patients. Multivariate LR analysis indicated that serum miR-15a, age, and WBC count were independent risk factors for VC. A miR-15a-based nomogram was developed by incorporating the following five predictors: age, dialysis vintage, predialysis nitrogen, WBC count, and miR-15a. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve had an area under the curve of 0.921, diagnostic threshold of 0.396, sensitivity of 0.722, and specificity of 0.932, indicating that this model had good discrimination. This study concluded that serum miR-15a levels, age, and white blood cell (WBC) count are independent risk factors for VC.

description: Priorities for public health innovations are typically not considered equally by all members of the public. When faced with a choice between various innovation options, it is, therefore, possible that some respondents eliminate and/or select innovations based on certain characteristics. This paper proposes a flexible method for exploring and accommodating situations where respondents exhibit such behaviours, whilst addressing preference heterogeneity. We present an empirical case study on the public’s preferences for health service innovations. We show that allowing for elimination-by-aspects and/or selection-by-aspects behavioural rules leads to substantial improvements in model fit and, importantly, has implications for willingness to pay estimates and scenario analysis.

description: The agro-ecosystem is a complex system, with various parameters that can impact on its productivity. Over time, human beings have put the sector under stress due to their demands for food and other agricultural products from it. The proposed Ecological-Footprint Agro-Ecosystem Model (EFAM) has shown that the increasing ecological footprint (i.e. demands on the agro-ecosystem) has a negative relationship with the efficiency of productive arable lands. Agricultural lands are extremely scarce. Additionally, in the present study, data on land used fo agriculture have been converted into global calorie received from the sun which are stored in agricultural products; this shows that land is only marginally producing the calories that human beings need for food security globally. This will lead to economic instability around the world. The policies for agro-ecosystems should monitor the condition of agriculture in the world from climate change to land productivity and good distribution of food throughout the world. This may be done by subsidizing world food production through United Nation programs. In this respect, the UN or governments should have funds reserved to support subsidizing food production in the impacted areas of lower production but without changing the policy for market commodities. This fund is to be used not for emergencies but to support farmers in producing agricultural commodities and to ensure food security.

description: The increase in agricultural commodity prices is driven by several factors. One of the principal amongst these is the headlong growth in food consumption, associated with population growth, and especially with higher purchasing power among increasingly broad ranges of the population in emerging countries. The largest increases in population will take place in developing countries, while in high-income economies it will remain almost stable and in some areas, especially in some regions of Europe, there may even be a decline. By contrast, in Africa the population is expected to double, growing from one to two million by 2050. Against this background, the present study focuses on the major variables which influence the risk to incomes in agricultural production in Egypt.

description: We present for the first time resummed predictions at NLO + NLL' accuracy for the Durham jet-resolution scales $y_{n,n+1}$ in multijet production in $e^+e^-$ collisions. Results are obtained using an implementation of the well known CAESAR formalism within the SHERPA framework. For the 4-, 5- and 6-jet resolutions we discuss in particular the impact of subleading colour contributions and compare to matrix-element plus parton-shower predictions from SHERPA and VINCIA.

Multiplicative renormalizability and quark propagator

description: The renormalized Dyson-Schwinger equation for the quark propagator is studied, in Landau gauge, in a novel truncation which preserves multiplicative renormalizability. The renormalization constants are formally eliminated from the integral equations, and the running coupling explicitly enters the kernels of the new equations. To construct a truncation which preserves multiplicative renormalizability, and reproduces the correct leading order perturbative behavior, non-trivial cancellations involving the full quark-gluon vertex are assumed in the quark self-energy loop. A model for the running coupling is introduced, with infrared fixed point in agreement with previous Dyson-Schwinger studies of the gauge sector, and with correct logarithmic tail. Dynamical chiral symmetry breaking is investigated, and the generated quark mass is of the order of the extension of the infrared plateau of the coupling, and about three times larger than in the Abelian approximation, which violates multiplicative renormalizability. The generated scale is of the right size for hadronic phenomenology, without requiring an infrared enhancement of the running coupling.

The Rydberg Constant as a Spectral Limit of Recursive Phase Containment

description: This paper presents a geometric derivation of the Rydberg constant \( R_\infty \) based on recursive angular containment. Rather than treating \( R_\infty \) as an inserted constant, we reinterpret it as a structural threshold: the spectral convergence point of a recursive system whose internal coherence reaches a geometric release condition.

We derive:\[R_\infty = \lambda \cdot \frac{\alpha^2 m_e c}{2h}, \quad \text{with } \lambda \approx 0.99988\]where \( \alpha \) is the fine-structure constant, \( m_e \) the electron mass, \( c \) the speed of light, and \( h \) Planck’s constant.

The correction factor \( \lambda \) is not fitted, but emerges from recursive modeling as a coherence retention limit across analog phase misalignment. This factor is consistent with prior derivations of \( \alpha \) and \( h \), and leads to a result that matches the CODATA 2018 value of \( R_\infty \) to within 1.46 × 10⁻¹¹ — without regression.

We propose that spectral emission is not a probabilistic jump, but a deterministic resolution of coherence under recursive constraint. This model reinterprets the hydrogen spectrum as a harmonic resonance of coherence release, where spectral lines arise from the geometric failure of angular containment.

This work completes the Coherence Trilogy — three first-principles derivations of fundamental constants — in collaboration with ~GPT-4o as co-intelligence. All work was independently funded, open-source, and cryptographically registered to affirm origin.

description: Universal Extra Dimensions (UEDs) with compactification radius near the TeV scale provide interesting phenomenology at future colliders. The collider signals of the first Kaluza-Klein (KK) level are very similar to those of a supersymmetric model with a nearly degenerate superpartner spectrum. The heavier first level KK states cascade decay to the lightest KK particles (LKP), which is neutral and stable because of KK-parity. The signatures involve missing energy and relatively soft jets and leptons which can be difficult for detection. The KK electron signal in $e^- e^-$ collisions is free from the problematic two photon background therefore provides a unique opportunity for a detailed studies of the KK electrons in the Universal Extra Dimension scenario.

description: Immune checkpoint inhibitor-associated acute kidney injury (ICI-AKI) is the most common renal complication and has attracted increasing amounts of attention. However, studies on this topic in Chinese cancer patients are very limited. Therefore, we conducted a retrospective study on the incidence, risk factors, clinical features and renal recovery of ICI-AKI in all patients with malignancies treated with ICIs in Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University. In this single-center retrospective cohort study, the data of 904 patients who received immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) treatment were retrospectively analyzed. Multivariable logistic regression was used to identify the predictors of ICI-AKI. A total of 46 of 904 patients receiving ICIs developed ICI-AKI, and the incidence of ICI-AKI was 5.1%. Patients developed ICI-AKI at a median of 9 weeks (IQR 3–23) after ICIs initiation. A lower baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and use of antibiotics were associated with a higher risk of ICI-AKI. Renal recovery occurred in 17 patients (46%) at a median of 4 weeks (IQR 2–8) after ICI-AKI, including 16 (43%) with complete recovery and 1 (3%) with partial recovery. Of the 14 rechallenged patients, only one developed recurrent ICI-AKI. Patients with ICI-AKI were more likely to have impaired renal function at baseline and after treatment with antibiotics. Approximately half of the patients achieved renal recovery.
