description: It has recently been shown that the graviton can consistently gain a constant mass without introducing the Boulware-Deser ghost. We propose a gravity model where the graviton mass is set by a scalar field and prove that this model is free of the Boulware-Deser ghost by analyzing its constraint system and showing that two constraints arise. We also initiate the study of the model's cosmic background evolution and tentatively discuss possible cosmological implications of this model. In particular, we consider a simple scenario where the scalar field setting the graviton mass is identified with the inflaton and the graviton mass evolves from a high to a low energy scale, giving rise to the current cosmic acceleration.

description: Background and purpose — Observing serious adverse events during treatment with the Precice Stryde bone lengthening nail (NuVasive, San Diego, CA, USA), we conducted a nationwide cross-sectional study to report the prevalence of adverse events from all 30 bone segments in 27 patients treated in Denmark. Patients and methods — Radiographs of all bone segments were evaluated regarding radiographic changes in February 2021. We determined the number of bone segments with late onset of pain and/or radiographically confirmed osteolysis, periosteal reaction, or cortical hypertrophy in the junctional area of the nail. Results — In 30 bone segments of 27 patients we observed radiographic changes in 21/30 segments of 20/27 patients, i.e., 19/30 osteolysis, 12/30 periosteal reaction (most often multi-layered), and 12/30 cortical hypertrophy in the area of the junction between the telescoping nail parts. Late onset of pain was a prominent feature in 8 patients. This is likely to be a prodrome to the bony changes. Discoloration (potential corrosion) at the nail interface was observed in multiple removed nails. 15/30 nails were still at risk of developing complications, i.e., were not yet removed. Interpretation — All Stryde nails should be monitored at regular intervals until removal. Onset of pain at late stages of limb lengthening, i.e., consolidation of the regenerate, should warrant immediate radiographic examination regarding osteolysis, periosteal reaction, and cortical hypertrophy, which may be associated with discoloration (potential corrosion) of the nail. We recommend removal of Stryde implants as early as possible after consolidation of the regenerate.

description: In the Leidenfrost effect, liquid drops deposited on a hot surface levitate on a thin vapor cushion fed by evaporation of the liquid. This vapor layer forms a concave depression in the drop interface. Using laser-light interference coupled to high-speed imaging, we measured the radius, curvature, and height of the vapor pocket, as well as non-axisymmetric fluctuations of the interface for water drops at different temperatures. The geometry of the vapor pocket depends primarily on the drop size and not on the substrate temperature.

description: L'articolo si pone l'obiettivo di studiare un metodo per categorizzare la realtà che ci circonda e analizzarne le relazioni con il linguaggio in cui intendiamo parlarne. Vengono poi discussi i problemi filosofici che la formalizzazione comporta e le loro relazioni con il nostro processo di chiarificazione e conoscenza del mondo. Dopo aver mostrato come tutto ci si risolve nello studio dei rapporti che intercorrono tra la nozione di realtà, quella di linguaggio e quella di logica vengono presentate alcune possibili interpretazioni filosofiche, alcune confutate altre accettate, di questi rapporti. Infine si cerca di caratterizzare brevemente la relazione che il nostro pensiero deve instaurare con il linguaggio formale nel corso dei suoi processi deduttivi cercando così di legare questa nozione a quelle precedentemente introdotte.

title: Food Access and Urban Rights in Us Cities: Implications on Urban Design and Planning
Creators: name: Sanyal, Tithi
Publisher: name: Georgia Institute of Technology
Year: 2025

description: For decades, US cities have been characterized by uneven access to physical and social infrastructures. These issues raise questions about the rights to urban life for people living, working, and commuting in these cities. Consequently, the fields of Urban Design and Urban and Environmental Planning have debated the ideas of “access” and “rights.” These terms are often used to validate design proposals, zoning laws, building codes, and policies. The meanings and implications of these terms have often remained unstated or elusive in these undertakings. This article parses the differences between access and rights in relation to urban food access and rights to food. By analyzing these terms, this article questions the complex notion of “The Right to the City” and its implications for urban design and planning research. This article demonstrates that the study of food access and rights is about addressing questions of exclusions rather than inclusion, deciphering the role of urban design and planning to address access, and speculating on how rights to quality urban life can be advanced. This article argues that urban design and planning as fields of knowledge have surpassed interdisciplinarity and are transitioning into transdisciplinary fields of knowledge.
Edge Current due to Majorana Fermions in Superfluid $^3$He A- and B-Phases

description: We propose a method utilizing edge current to observe Majorana fermions in the surface Andreev bound state for the superfluid $^3$He A- and B-phases. The proposal is based on self-consistent analytic solutions of quasi-classical Green's function with an edge. The local density of states and edge mass current in the A-phase or edge spin current in the B-phase can be obtained from these solutions. The edge current carried by the Majorana fermions is partially cancelled by quasiparticles (QPs) in the continuum state outside the superfluid gap. QPs contributing to the edge current in the continuum state are distributed in energy even away from the superfluid gap. The effect of Majorana fermions emerges in the depletion of the edge current by temperature within a low-temperature range. The observations that the reduction in the mass current is changed by $T^2$-power in the A-phase and the reduction in the spin current is changed by $T^3$-power in the B-phase establish the existence of Majorana fermions. We also point out another possibility for observing Majorana fermions by controlling surface roughness.

description: How far and how fast does information spread in social media? Researchers have recently examined a number of factors that affect information diffusion in online social networks, including: the novelty of information, users' activity levels, who they pay attention to, and how they respond to friends' recommendations. Using URLs as markers of information, we carry out a detailed study of retweeting, the primary mechanism by which information spreads on the Twitter follower graph. Our empirical study examines how users respond to an incoming stimulus, i.e., a tweet (message) from a friend, and reveals that %retweeting behavior is constrained by a few simple principles. the "principle of least effort" combined with limited attention plays a dominant role in retweeting behavior. Specifically, we observe that users retweet information when it is most visible, such as when it near the top of their Twitter stream. Moreover, our measurements quantify how a user's limited attention is divided among incoming tweets, providing novel evidence that highly connected individuals are less likely to propagate an arbitrary tweet. Our study indicates that the finite ability to process incoming information constrains social contagion, and we conclude that rapid decay of visibility is the primary barrier to information propagation online.

Horizontal violence in the nursing profession

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: Workplace violence, which exists in many professions, is not excluded from the nursing profession. The term horizontal violence is commonly used to define violence amongst colleagues in the work force. Despite an increase in the literature during the last three decades, horizontal violence continues to remain a serious issue for the nursing profession. This phenomenon must be taken seriously because studies indicate that nurses encountering co-worker violence often intent to leave the profession. Clearly, this will cause a greater strain on the current nursing shortage, which is currently projected to increase. The strain of nurses encountering incivility amongst one another, will not only impact the nursing profession but also health agencies/organizations. The ongoing recruitment and termination of nurses’ will adversely impact organizations. Finally, as health care is already associated with many stressors, the additional strain of horizontal violence will ultimately impact patient care. The intent of this study was to explore nurses’ experience of horizontal violence; this to draw attention of the possible consequences and the seriousness of horizontal violence to the nursing profession and health care organizations. The intent was also to identify strategies to mitigate horizontal violence in the workplace. A qualitative approach was employed using phenomenology as the research methodology. Phenomenology is the study of the phenomena through the lived experience, which is exactly the essence that I intended to capture in the work place violence study. Data collection was completed via individual in-depth interviews. Themes and patterns were identified during the interview process. The results of this study revealed that nurses were enduring horizontal violence and the current methods of dealing with co-worker incivility were not effective. Although policies were in place to deter co-worker violence, these were not enforced, and the reporting methods were a deterrent to report horizontal violence.

description: We present the first weak gravitational lensing analysis of the completed Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope Legacy Survey (CFHTLS). We study the 64 square degrees W1 field, the largest of the CFHTLS-Wide survey fields, and present the largest contiguous weak lensing convergence "mass map" yet made. 2.66 million galaxy shapes are measured, using a KSB pipeline verified against high-resolution Hubble Space Telescope imaging that covers part of the CFHTLS. Our i'-band measurements are also consistent with an analysis of independent r'-band imaging. The reconstructed lensing convergence map contains 301 peaks with signal-to-noise ratio ν>3.5, consistent with predictions of a ΛCDM model. Of these peaks, 126 lie within 3.0' of a BCG identified from multicolor optical imaging in an independent, red sequence survey. We also identify 7 counterparts for massive clusters previously seen in X-ray emission within 6 square degrees XMM-LSS survey. With photometric redshift estimates for the source galaxies, we use a tomographic lensing method to fit the redshift and mass of each convergence peak. Matching these to the optical observations, we confirm 85 groups/clusters with χ^2 reduced < 3.0, at a mean redshift = 0.36 and velocity dispersion = 658.8 km/s. Future surveys, such as DES, LSST, KDUST and EUCLID, will be able to apply these same techniques to map clusters in much larger volumes and thus tightly constrain cosmological models.

description: Background and purpose — External validation of machine learning (ML) prediction models is an essential step before clinical application. We assessed the proportion, performance, and transparent reporting of externally validated ML prediction models in orthopedic surgery, using the Transparent Reporting for Individual Prognosis or Diagnosis (TRIPOD) guidelines. Material and methods — We performed a systematic search using synonyms for every orthopedic specialty, ML, and external validation. The proportion was determined by using 59 ML prediction models with only internal validation in orthopedic surgical outcome published up until June 18, 2020, previously identified by our group. Model performance was evaluated using discrimination, calibration, and decision-curve analysis. The TRIPOD guidelines assessed transparent reporting. Results — We included 18 studies externally validating 10 different ML prediction models of the 59 available ML models after screening 4,682 studies. All external validations identified in this review retained good discrimination. Other key performance measures were provided in only 3 studies, rendering overall performance evaluation difficult. The overall median TRIPOD completeness was 61% (IQR 43–89), with 6 items being reported in less than 4/18 of the studies. Interpretation — Most current predictive ML models are not externally validated. The 18 available external validation studies were characterized by incomplete reporting of performance measures, limiting a transparent examination of model performance. Further prospective studies are needed to validate or refute the myriad of predictive ML models in orthopedics while adhering to existing guidelines. This ensures clinicians can take full advantage of validated and clinically implementable ML decision tools.

description: This portfolio thesis for the Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degree at the University of St Andrews, titled "Evaluating the Arclight: A Low-Cost Tool to Strengthen Eye Care and Training in Low Resource Settings," comprises five research papers published from 2018 to 2023. Objective: The primary aim of the research was to assess the diagnostic capability, ease of use, and educational impact of the Arclight ophthalmoscope in improving eye care delivery and training among health care workers and students in Malawi, Rwanda, and India. Methods: The methodology encompassed comparative evaluations of the Arclight against traditional ophthalmoscopes in training and clinical settings, its effectiveness in conducting red reflex assessments, and its utility in identifying amblyogenic risk factors. Additionally, the research considered the educational outcomes of Arclight workshops designed to enhance interprofessional collaboration and ophthalmic skills among healthcare students. Results: The findings underscored the Arclight's comparable diagnostic accuracy to traditional ophthalmoscopes, with a marked preference among users for its ease of use and practicality in resource-constrained settings. The educational evaluations revealed significant improvements in students' clinical skills and confidence in ophthalmic diagnosis post-workshop, highlighting the Arclight's role in fostering a collaborative learning environment. Implications for Future Research and Policy: The comprehensive evaluation of the Arclight ophthalmoscope sets a precedent for future research in frugal innovations within eye care, suggesting pathways for integrating such technologies into health systems to enhance eye care delivery. It also calls for policy reforms that recognise the value of low-cost diagnostic tools and interprofessional education in achieving Universal Health Coverage and Integrated People-Centred Eye Care, particularly in low-resource settings. Conclusion: The thesis demonstrates the Arclight ophthalmoscope's potential as a key tool in global eye care. Its simplicity, cost-effectiveness, and solar-powered design, coupled with the positive educational outcomes, advocate for its broader adoption in policy and practice. The research contributes valuable insights into the implementation of low-cost medical innovations for eye care, offering a scalable model to address global disparities in eye health services and training.

description: We present a new systematic method to evaluate one-loop tensor integrals in conventional ultraviolet cutoff regularization. By deriving a new recursive relation that describes the momentum translation variance of ultraviolet integrals, we implement this relation in the Passarino-Veltman reduction method. With this method, we recalculated the Higgs boson decay into two photons process at one-loop level in the Standard Model. We reanalyze this process carefully and clarify some issues arisen recently in cutoff regularization.

description: In this paper we study in complete generality the family of two-state, deterministic, monotone, local, homogeneous cellular automata in $\mathbb{Z}^d$ with random initial configurations. Formally, we are given a set $\mathcal{U}=\{X_1,\dots,X_m\}$ of finite subsets of $\mathbb{Z}^d\setminus\{\mathbf{0}\}$, and an initial set $A_0\subset\mathbb{Z}^d$ of `infected' sites, which we take to be random according to the product measure with density $p$. At time $t\in\mathbb{N}$, the set of infected sites $A_t$ is the union of $A_{t-1}$ and the set of all $x\in\mathbb{Z}^d$ such that $x+X\in A_{t-1}$ for some $X\in\mathcal{U}$. Our model may alternatively be thought of as bootstrap percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ with arbitrary update rules, and for this reason we call it $\mathcal{U}$-bootstrap percolation. In two dimensions, we give a classification of $\mathcal{U}$-bootstrap percolation models into three classes -- supercritical, critical and subcritical -- and we prove results about the phase transitions of all models belonging to the first two of these classes. More precisely, we show that the critical probability for percolation on $(\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z})^2$ is $(\log n)^{-Θ(1)}$ for all models in the critical class, and that it is $n^{-Θ(1)}$ for all models in the supercritical class. The results in this paper are the first of any kind on bootstrap percolation considered in this level of generality, and in particular they are the first that make no assumptions of symmetry. It is the hope of the authors that this work will initiate a new, unified theory of bootstrap percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$.

description: Background and purpose — Extensive research and national multidisciplinary programs have striven to introduce uniform standards of treatment and mitigate mortality and adverse events after hip fracture surgery over the past decades. A large-scale overview of temporal developments in hip fracture surgery and care is warranted. Patients and methods — We studied Danish patients aged ≥ 60 years, sustaining their first ever hip fracture between 1997 and 2017. Patients were identified from the Danish National Patient Registry (DNPR). Incidence rates of first hip fracture were calculated per 1,000 patient-years and stratified by age group and sex. Information on pre-injury living settings, comorbidities, and medications were obtained from national administrative registers. Type of fracture and treatment choice were recorded, and patients were followed for 1 year to observe mortality, readmission, and surgical complications. Results — Data from 153,058 patients was analyzed. Incidence rate decreased in both sexes, but only led to a reduction in the annual number of hip fractures in the female population. Choice of surgery shifted away from sliding hip screws and parallel implants (SHS-PI), towards intramedullary nailing and hemi-/arthroplasties for trochanteric and femoral neck fractures, respectively. Pre-injury diagnosed morbidity and 1-year readmissions increased contrary to mortality. Median age remained stable around 83 (IQR 77–88) for women and 80 (IQR 73–86) for men. Interpretation — Over the past 2 decades important aspects of hip fracture management have improved. However, sex differences were observed, and men remain more vulnerable than women in terms of morbidity, mortality, and incidence rate.

description: The evolution of the QWERTY keyboard layout has been the subject of much debate. Prior discussions of QWERTY, however, have largely focused on engineering issues, while often ignoring the key competitive and intellectual property strategies surrounding the design. We argue that the keyboard layout QWERTY was a consequence of entrepreneurial mindfulness combined with a creative design rather than an accident of history. This paper also shows how complementarities in intellectual property rights protection played an integral role in the early development of QWERTY and helped to effectively conceal the source of the efficiency advantages that QWERTY delivered at the time. Finally, we suggest possible arguments why the QWERTY standard has continued into the modern age separate from a path dependence argument. This further serves to raise serious questions over QWERTY’s forced servitude as ‘paradigm case’ of inferior standard in the path dependence literature.

description: Network coding can significantly improve the transmission rate of communication networks with packet loss compared with routing. However, using network coding usually incurs high computational and storage costs in the network devices and terminals. For example, some network coding schemes require the computational and/or storage capacities of an intermediate network node to increase linearly with the number of packets for transmission, making such schemes difficult to be implemented in a router-like device that has only constant computational and storage capacities. In this paper, we introduce BATched Sparse code (BATS code), which enables a digital fountain approach to resolve the above issue. BATS code is a coding scheme that consists of an outer code and an inner code. The outer code is a matrix generation of a fountain code. It works with the inner code that comprises random linear coding at the intermediate network nodes. BATS codes preserve such desirable properties of fountain codes as ratelessness and low encoding/decoding complexity. The computational and storage capacities of the intermediate network nodes required for applying BATS codes are independent of the number of packets for transmission. Almost capacity-achieving BATS code schemes are devised for unicast networks, two-way relay networks, tree networks, a class of three-layer networks, and the butterfly network. For general networks, under different optimization criteria, guaranteed decoding rates for the receiving nodes can be obtained.

description: Background and purpose — A correct diagnosis is essential for the appropriate treatment of patients with atypical femoral fractures (AFFs). The diagnostic accuracy of radiographs with standard radiology reports is very poor. We derived a diagnostic algorithm that uses deep neural networks to enable clinicians to discriminate AFFs from normal femur fractures (NFFs) on conventional radiographs. Patients and methods — We entered 433 radiographs from 149 patients with complete AFF and 549 radiographs from 224 patients with NFF into a convolutional neural network (CNN) that acts as a core classifier in an automated pathway and a manual intervention pathway (manual improvement of image orientation). We tested several deep neural network structures (i.e., VGG19, InceptionV3, and ResNet) to identify the network with the highest diagnostic accuracy for distinguishing AFF from NFF. We applied a transfer learning technique and used 5-fold cross-validation and class activation mapping to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy. Results — In the automated pathway, ResNet50 had the highest diagnostic accuracy, with a mean of 91% (SD 1.3), as compared with 83% (SD 1.6) for VGG19, and 89% (SD 2.5) for InceptionV3. The corresponding accuracy levels for the intervention pathway were 94% (SD 2.0), 92% (2.7), and 93% (3.7), respectively. With regards to sensitivity and specificity, ResNet outperformed the other networks with a mean AUC (area under the curve) value of 0.94 (SD 0.01) and surpassed the accuracy of clinical diagnostics. Interpretation — Artificial intelligence systems show excellent diagnostic accuracies for the rare fracture type of AFF in an experimental setting.

description: Acute acidic stress from sources such as acid rain might impact on lake ecosystems in many aspects. Because zooplankton is sensitive to environmental change, it could be a good biotic indicator of the effects of acidification. We investigated survival and metabolic rates of three dominant zooplankton taxa in Lake Biwa, the cladoceran Daphnia pulicaria, and the copepods Eodiaptomus japonicus and Cyclopoida spp., when subjected to different pH values (pH 4.0−8.0) at low (10 °C) and high (20 °C) temperatures. Because mortality of D. pulicaria and Cyclopoida spp. exceeded 50% over 24 h of incubation at pH < 4.6, but for E. japonicus this occurred at pH < 5.6, E. japonicus may be more vulnerable to acidic stress than other two taxa. This vulnerability to acidification slightly increased at 10 °C for each taxon. Metabolic rates in D. pulicaria remained relatively constant over a wide pH range (4.6−8.0), but those of both copepods decreased at acidic conditions (pH 4.6−7.0). This decrease of metabolic rate might be related to their swimming activity that decreased obviously at acidic conditions.

description: A pentagon in the plane with fixed side-lengths has a two-dimensional shape space. Considering the pentagon as a mechanical system with point masses at the corners we answer the question of how much the pentagon can rotate with zero angular momentum. We show that the shape space of the equilateral pentagon has genus 4 and find a fundamental region by discrete symmetry reduction with respect to symmetry group D_5. The amount of rotation Δθfor a loop in shape space at zero angular momentum is interpreted as a geometric phase and is obtained as an integral of a function B over the region of shape space enclosed by the loop. With a simple variational argument we determine locally optimal loops as the zero contours of the function B. The resulting shape change is represented as a Fourier series, and the global maximum of Δθ\approx 45\degree is found for a loop around the regular pentagram. We also show that restricting allowed shapes to convex pentagons the optimal loop is the boundary of the convex region and gives Δθ\approx 19\degree.
