description: Цель – определение тактики ведения пациентов с развившимся спонтанным пневмомедиастинумом на фоне коронавирусной пневмонии. Материалы и методы. Проанализированы 70 случаев развития
спонтанного пневмомедиастинума на фоне коронавирусной инфекции у пациентов, находящихся на стационарном лечении. Результаты. Среди пациентов с коронавирусной пневмонией, находящихся на лечении в Окружной клинической больнице г. Ханты-Мансийска, частота встречаемости cпонтанного пневмомедиастинума, развитие которого чаще происходит при поражении более 75 % ткани легкого, составила 3,6 %. Статистически
значимой взаимосвязи между исходами заболевания и выбором тактики ведения пациента (консервативной
или хирургической) не получено. Пациентам со спонтанным пневмомедиастинумом на фоне ассоциированной
с COVID-19 пневмонии не требуется дренирование переднего средостения.
description: The study aims to propose management strategies for patients with spontaneous pneumomediastinum comorbid with coronavirus pneumonia. Materials and methods. 70 patients with spontaneous pneumomediastinum comorbid with coronavirus pneumonia were examined. Results. Spontaneous pneumomediastinum
often develops in more than 75 % of lung tissue damage. Spontaneous pneumomediastinum occurred in 3.6 %
of COVID-19 pneumonia patients admitted to Khanty-Mansiysk District Clinical Hospital. There was no statistical
significance in correlation between disease outcomes and patient management strategies (non-surgical or surgical
one). Therefore, patients with spontaneous pneumomediastinum associated with COVID-19 pneumonia do not
require anterior mediastinum drainage.

description: The number of word forms in agglutinative languages is theoretically infinite and this variety in word forms introduces sparsity in many natural language processing tasks. Part-of-speech tagging (PoS tagging) is one of these tasks that often suffers from sparsity. In this paper, we present an unsupervised Bayesian model using Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) for joint PoS tagging and stemming for agglutinative languages. We use stemming to reduce sparsity in PoS tagging. Two tasks are jointly performed to provide a mutual benefit in both tasks. Our results show that joint POS tagging and stemming improves PoS tagging scores. We present results for Turkish and Finnish as agglutinative languages and English as a morphologically poor language.

description: Most calls to poison information centers are from the public, pertaining to young children, and due to minor or nontoxic exposures. Rational poison center consultations can prevent unnecessary visits to emergency departments (EDs), callers’ adherence to such advice is required. Estimate adherence of callers from the public to the poison center concerning exposures of young children to the advice provided by the clinical toxicologist, estimate the number of unnecessary ED visits of these children prevented by poison center consultations. Prospective, phone-survey cohort study. Calls from the public concerning children under 6 years old were recorded and collected, telephone follow-up was performed within two weeks. Data collected included: demographics, exposure, severity, triage advised, adherence to the advice, reasons for nonadherence, and what the caller would have done had the poison center been unavailable. The study was conducted over 3 months representing different seasons and holidays times during a 1-year period. 1762 callers completed the telephone follow-up; 1443 (81.9%) cases were asymptomatic at the time of call; 1452 (82.3%) were advised to remain at home, 175 (9.9%) and 137 (7.8%) were referred to community clinics and EDs, respectively; 1648 (93.5%) of callers adhered to the advice provided; highest adherence rate was among callers advised to stay home (98.3%, 1427), and 78.9% (108) and 62.1% (109) among callers referred to EDs and community clinics, respectively. Among callers advised to stay home, 491 stated that they would have referred themselves to the ED had the poison center been unavailable, an annual estimate of 4309 cases. The main parameter predicting nonadherence was calls made during night shift. The high adherence of callers to the poison center consultation suggests it plays an important role in preventing unnecessary ED visits of young children due to poison exposures, and may substantially reduce ED load and costs.
A fast point charge interacting with the screened Vlasov-Poisson system

description: We consider the long-time behavior of a fast, charged particle interacting with an initially spatially homogeneous background plasma. The background is modeled by the screened Vlasov-Poisson equations, whereas the interaction potential of the point charge is assumed to be smooth. We rigorously prove the validity of the \emph{stopping power theory} in physics, which predicts a decrease of the velocity $V(t)$ of the point charge given by $\dot{V} \sim -|V|^{-3} V$, a formula that goes back to Bohr (1915). Our result holds for all initial velocities larger than a threshold value that is larger than the velocity of all background particles and remains valid until (i) the particle slows down to the threshold velocity, or (ii) the time is exponentially long compared to the velocity of the point charge. The long-time behavior of this coupled system is related to the question of Landau damping which has remained open in this setting so far. Contrary to other results in nonlinear Landau damping, the long-time behavior of the system is driven by the non-trivial electric field of the plasma, and the damping only occurs in regions that the point charge has already passed.

description: Public health emergencies often affect Poison Control Centre (PCC) operations. We examined possible effects of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on call volume, call characteristics, and workload in European PCCs. All 65 individual European PCCs were requested to supply data on the number of calls and call characteristics (caller, age groups, reason and specific exposures) from March to June in 2018, 2019, and 2020 (Part 1). Number of calls with specific characteristics was normalised to all calls. Calls (N) and call characteristics (%) were compared between 2020 and 2018/2019 (average), within PCCs/countries and grouped. Correlation between call volume and COVID-19 cases per PCC/country was examined. All PCCs received a survey on workload (Part 2). Parts 1 and 2 were independent. For Part 1, 36 PCCs (21 countries) supplied 26 datasheets. PCCs in the UK and in France merged data and supplied one datasheet each with national data. Summed data showed an increase of 4.5% in call volume from 228.794 in 2018/2019 (average) to 239.170 in 2020 (p < 0.001). Within PCCs/countries, calls significantly increased for 54% of PCCs/countries (N = 14/26) and decreased for 19% (N = 5/26), three of which (N = 3/5) only serve medical professionals. Correlation between call volume and COVID-19 cases was (non-significant) positive (Rho >0.7) in 5/26 PCCs/countries (19%), and negative in 6/26 (23%). Call characteristics (median proportion of grouped data in 2018/2019 vs. 2020) changed: fewer medical professionals called (40 vs. 34%, p < 0.001), calls on intentional exposures decreased (20 vs. 17%, p < 0.012), as did calls on patients between 13 and 17 years (5 vs. 4%, p < 0.05). Calls on specific exposures increased; disinfectants from 1.9 to 5.2%, and cleaning products from 4.4 to 5.7% (p < 0.001). For Part 2, 38 PCCs (24 countries) filled the survey on workload (number/length of shifts and time on PCC duties), which increased in 23/38 PCCs (61%), while 10/38 (26%) worked with fewer employees. Obtaining aggregated European PCC data proved challenging but showed an increase in overall call volume and workload during the first COVID-19 wave. Call characteristics changed including fewer calls from professionals and more calls on specific exposures. Within single PCCs/countries a variety of effects was observed.

description: In this article we provide the Henon-Heiles system defined on Lie-algebraically deformed nonrelativistic space-time with the commutator of two spatial directions proportional to time. Particularly, we demonstrate that in such a model the total energy is not conserved and for this reason the role of control parameter is taken by the initial energy value $E_{0,{\rm tot}} = E_{\rm tot}(t=0)$. Besides, we show that in contrast with the commutative case, for chosen values of deformation parameter $κ$, there appears chaos in the system for initial total energies $E_{0,{\rm tot}}$ below the threshold $E_{0,{\rm th}} = 1/6$.

description: We aim at characterizing the large-scale distribution of H2O in G327.3-0.6, a massive star-forming region made of individual objects in different evolutionary phases. We investigate variations of H2O abundance as function of evolution. We present Herschel continuum maps at 89 and 179 $μ$m of the whole region and an APEX map at 350 μm of the IRDC. New spectral HIFI maps toward the IRDC region covering low-energy H2O lines at 987 and 1113 GHz are also presented and combined with HIFI pointed observations of the G327 hot core. We infer the physical properties of the gas through optical depth analysis and radiative transfer modeling. The continuum emission at 89 and 179 μm follows the thermal continuum emission at longer wavelengths, with a peak at the position of the hot core, a secondary peak in the Hii region, and an arch-like layer of hot gas west of the Hii region. The same morphology is observed in the 1113 GHz line, in absorption toward all dust condensations. Optical depths of ~80 and 15 are estimated and correspond to column densities of 10^15 and 2 10^14 cm-2, for the hot core and IRDC position. These values indicate an H2O to H2 ratio of 3 10^-8 toward the hot core; the abundance of H2O does not change along the IRDC with values of some 10^-8. Infall (over ~ 20") is detected toward the hot core position with a rate of 1-1.3 10^-2 M_sun /yr, high enough to overcome the radiation pressure due to the stellar luminosity. The source structure of the hot core region is complex, with a cold outer gas envelope in expansion, situated between the outflow and the observer, extending over 0.32 pc. The outflow is seen face-on and centered away from the hot core. The distribution of H2O along the IRDC is roughly constant with an abundance peak in the more evolved object. These water abundances are in agreement with previous studies in other massive objects and chemical models.

description: Our goal is to estimate the characteristic exponent of the input to a Lévy-driven storage system from a sample of equispaced workload observations. The estimator relies on an approximate moment equation associated with the Laplace-Stieltjes transform of the workload at exponentially distributed sampling times. The estimator is pointwise consistent for any observation grid. Moreover, a high frequency sampling scheme yields asymptotically normal estimation errors for a class of input processes. A resampling scheme that uses the available information in a more efficient manner is suggested and assessed via simulation experiments.

Complexity and Simplicity of University Students’ Associative Knowledge of History of Science: Knowledge Organisation Poised on the Edge Chaos?
Creators: name: Koponen, Ismo

Year: 2023

description: In a recent study, we examined pre-service teachers’ associative knowledge networks about history of science, how pre-service science teachers relate events, ideas, characters, and deeds in history of science and in cultural and general history. We found a strong dominance of persons in the organization of that knowledge (Matthew effect). Here, we continue the analysis started in that previous study. By using a network approach, we focus here on the effects of thematic scaffoldings (thematization and periodization) on the structure of the students’ (N=25) associative knowledge of history of science, culture, society, and politics in era between 1550 and 1850. We explore the types of connections students make and how important the different types of connections are for the overall structure of the associative network. In addition, we find out how frequently certain connections are recalled in the group of 25 students. The results show that person-to-science connections are dominant, but science-to-history connections are also important, thus alleviating the bias towards the person-centered conceptions of history of science found in the previous study.

On the impact of Helium abundance on the Cepheid Period-Luminosity and Wesenheit relations and the Distance Ladder

description: This work analyses the effect of the Helium content on synthetic Period-Luminosity Relations (PLRs) and Period-Wesenheit Relations (PWRs) of Cepheids and the systematic uncertainties on the derived distances that a hidden population of He-enhanced Cepheids may generate. We use new stellar and pulsation models to build a homogeneous and consistent framework to derive the Cepheid features. The Cepheid populations expected in synthetic color-magnitude diagrams of young stellar systems (from 20 Myr to 250 Myr) are computed in several photometric bands for Y = 0.25 and Y = 0.35, at a fixed metallicity (Z = 0.008). The PLRs appear to be very similar in the two cases, with negligible effects (few %) on distances, while PWRs differ somewhat, with systematic uncertainties in deriving distances as high as about 7% at log P < 1.5. Statistical effects due to the number of variables used to determine the relations contribute to a distance systematic error of the order of few percent, with values decreasing from optical to near-infrared bands. The empirical PWRs derived from multi-wavelength datasets for the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is in a very good agreement with our theoretical PWRs obtained with a standard He content, supporting the evidence that LMC Cepheids do not show any He effect.
Prospect for measurement of the CP-violating phase $ϕ_s$ in the $B_{s}\rightarrow J/ψϕ$ channel at a future Z factory

description: The CP-violating phase $ϕ_s$, the \Bs decay width ($Γ_s$), and the \Bs decay width difference ($ΔΓ_s$) are sensitive probes to new physics and can constrain the heavy quark expansion theory. The potential for the measurement at future $Z$ factories is studied in this manuscript. It is found that operating at Tera-$Z$ mode, the expected precision can reach: $σ(ϕ_s) = 4.6~\mathrm{mrad}$, $σ(ΔΓ_s) = 2.4~\mathrm{ns^{-1}}$ and $σ(Γ_s) = 0.72~\mathrm{ns^{-1}}$. The precision of $ϕ_s$ is 40\% larger than the expected precision with the LHCb experiment at HL-LHC. If operating at 10-Tera-$Z$ mode, the precision of $ϕ_s$ can be measured at 45\% of the precision obtained from the LHCb experiment at HL-LHC. However, the measurement of $Γ_s$ and $ΔΓ_s$ cannot benefit from the excellent time resolution and tagging power of the future $Z$-factories. Only operating at 10-Tera-$Z$ mode can the $Γ_s$ and $ΔΓ_s$ reach an 18\% larger precision than the precision expected to be obtained from LHCb at HL-LHC. The control of penguin contamination at the future Z-factories is also discussed.

description: The study aims to detect features of autonomic regulation in women living in the subarctic region
following pregnancy losses in order to improve the outcomes of subsequent pregnancies. Materials and methods.
A prospective study of heart rate variability in women with pregnancy losses in anamnesis was conducted using
a head-up tilt-table test. The main group consisted of 36 women who had recurrent miscarriages, the control
group included 29 women who had one pregnancy loss (non-developing pregnancy or spontaneous miscarriage
before 21 + 6 weeks of pregnancy). Statistical analysis was carried out using the StatTech 2.8.3 (by Stattech LLC,
Russia). Results. Sympathicotonia is common in women who live in the Middle Ob area following pregnancy losses.
Moreover, the shift in the autonomic balance is balanced and compensated according to the active head-up tilttable test. The data obtained enables personalized rehabilitation and pre-gravid preparation for the next pregnancy.
Capturing Debate Dynamics: Complexity Theory and Emergent Learning in Legal Education
Creators: name: Kotsoglou, Kyriakos
Publisher: name: International Journal of Complexity in Education
Year: 2023

description: The present article’s aim is to show that complexity theory provides us with an indispensable theoretical framework to articulate valuable teaching practices and explain how we can bring student cohorts to interact with each other and understand deep problems. The article will, firstly, highlight the epistemological assumption of modern legal education, i.e., the recitation model. I will then provide a brief outline of the theoretical and methodological underpinnings of complexity theory and present an approach in which complexity theory can be employed to inform valuable methods in legal education. Secondly, I will argue that complexity theory captures important aspects of what is experientially familiar but not explicitly known to teachers: knowledge and understanding are emergent properties. This insight will allow us to treat classrooms as informational networks, i.e., as complex adaptive systems. Finally, I will provide two practical examples for bottom-up teaching. I will show how year after year small cohorts of students through interaction and discussion on the topics of punishment-behaviour and legal discretion respectively, manage to reconstruct theoretically sophisticated academic discussions to their full extent. Keywords: complexity, complex adaptive systems, emergent learning, recitation model, instructional conversations, legal discretion, punishment theories, educational attractors

description: Understanding the thermodynamics of driven quantum systems strongly coupled to thermal baths is a central focus of quantum thermodynamics and mesoscopic physics. A variety of different methodological approaches exist in the literature, all with their own advantages and disadvantages. The mesoscopic leads approach was recently generalised to steady state thermal machines and has the ability to replicate Landauer Büttiker theory in the non-interacting limit. In this approach a set of discretised lead modes, each locally damped, provide a markovian embedding for the baths. In this work we further generalise this approach to incorporate an arbitrary time dependence in the system Hamiltonian. Following a careful discussion of the calculation of thermodynamic quantities we illustrate the power of our approach by studying several driven mesoscopic examples coupled to finite temperature fermionic baths, replicating known results in various limits. In the case of a driven non interacting quantum dot we show how fast driving can be used to induce heat rectification.

description: Pesticide self-poisoning is a global clinical and public health problem. While self-poisoning with insecticides and herbicides has been extensively studied, there is minimal literature on acute fungicide self-poisoning. We aimed to study the clinical course and outcome of fungicide self-poisoned patients recruited to a prospective cohort in Sri Lanka. We conducted a prospective study of patients presenting with fungicide self-poisoning to nine hospitals in Sri Lanka between 2002 and 2020. Patients were enrolled by clinical research assistants, with clinical outcomes being recorded at regular review for each patient. We identified 337 cases of self-poisoning with fungicides (alcohol as only co-ingestant), including 28 different fungicides across 5 different fungicide classes. Median time from ingestion to examination was 3.1 (1.8–5.7) h. Nearly all presented to hospital fully conscious (GCS 15, 15–15)— only 27 patients (8.0%) presented with reduced GCS (<15) and only 2 (0.6%) had GCS 3/15. Most patients (333/337, 98.8%) made a full recovery, of whom only eight (2.37%) required intubation and ventilation. Four patients died (case fatality rate: 1.2%; 95% CI 0.0–23.4) after ingestion of edifenphos (n = 2), propamocarb and pyraclostrobin. Fungicide self-poisoning appears to be less hazardous than insecticide or herbicide self-poisoning, with a substantially lower case fatality in the same cohort. Edifenphos is an exception to this ‘less toxic’ rule; as a WHO Class Ib highly hazardous pesticide, we recommend its withdrawal from, and replacement in, global agricultural practice. Propamocarb should be listed in the WHO hazard classification as propamocarb hydrochloride to reflect the higher toxicity of the common agricultural formulation. Pyraclostrobin currently has no WHO classification; one is urgently required now that its ingestion has now been linked the death of a patient. Additional prospective clinical data on fungicide self-poisoning is required to expand knowledge on the effects of these diverse compounds.

description: Establishing precise control over the shape and the interactions of the microscopic building blocks is essential for design of macroscopic soft materials with novel structural, optical and mechanical properties. Here, we demonstrate robust assembly of DNA origami filaments into cholesteric liquid crystals, 1D supramolecular twisted ribbons and 2D colloidal membranes. The exquisite control afforded by the DNA origami technology establishes a quantitative relationship between the microscopic filament structure and the macroscopic cholesteric pitch. Furthermore, it also enables robust assembly of 1D twisted ribbons, which behave as effective supramolecular polymers whose structure and elastic properties can be precisely tuned by controlling the geometry of the elemental building blocks. Our results demonstrate the potential synergy between DNA origami technology and colloidal science, in which the former allows for rapid and robust synthesis of complex particles, and the latter can be used to assemble such particles into bulk materials.
The nobles of El-Qusiya in the sixth dynasty: archaeological and historical study

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: The nobles of El-Qusiya were of Memphite origin and remained closely connected to the capital, with no evidence of a change in the ruling family from Khewenwekh (Pepy I) to Heni (end of Dynasty 6 or slightly later). Artists, particularly painters, were prominently depicted in the tombs of these nobles and appear in the company of the tomb owners on private occasions, bearing the title ‘scribe/painter of the house of sacred records of the palace’. Wall scenes in the tombs of El-Qusiya are clearly inspired by the Memphite tombs of the mid-Fifth Dynasty to the end of Pepy I’s reign, such as those of Tjy, Metjetji, Ankhmahor and Mereruka, with El-Qusiya artists probably being trained at Memphis. The clearest similarities are however found between the tombs of Mehu at Saqqara and Pepyankh the middle at Meir, which were probably decorated by the same painter, Kaiemtjenenet, who was certainly innovative. As in other provinces, the rank titles of the nobles of Meir fluctuated between ‘sole companion’ and ‘hereditary prince’. Their regular office was that of ‘overseer of priests’, occasionally with reference to Hathor. Pepyankh the middle and Pepyankh the black held the vizierate, and the evidence suggests the presence of two contemporary viziers in Upper Egypt, one for the south and the other for the middle provinces. Pepyankh the middle was the first to hold the title of ‘overseer of Upper Egypt’ at El-Qusiya, with authority over the middle provinces. Evidence suggests that the South was not divided into three parts, but into two almost equal sections, with the dividing line positioned between Abydos and Akhmim. Thus the ‘middle provinces’ refer to the area between the southernmost provinces and the Delta. Heny the eldest son of Pepyankh the black became ‘great overlord of the NDft’, perhaps referring to nomes 13 and 14. This may have been the Memphite response to the rise of Khui at Dara, in UE13, who claimed some royal prerogatives.

description: We establish a sharp comparison inequality between the negative moments and the second moment of the magnitude of sums of independent random vectors uniform on three-dimensional Euclidean spheres. This provides a probabilistic extension of the Oleszkiewicz-Pelczyński polydisc slicing result. The Haagerup-type phase transition occurs exactly when the p-norm recovers volume, in contrast to the real case. We also obtain partial results in higher dimensions.

description: We investigate gluon spectral functions at finite temperature in Landau gauge, based on a subset of lattice QCD ensembles with $N_f=2+1+1$ dynamical twisted mass quarks flavors, generated by the tmfT collaboration. Our study uses a novel Bayesian approach for the extraction of non-positive definite spectral functions, which for each binned spatial momentum takes into account the gluon correlation functions at all available discrete imaginary frequencies. The spectral functions are extracted at three different lattice spacing, where for each of them, a scan of temperatures around the crossover transition is carried out at fixed scale. We find indications for the existence of a well defined quasi-particle peak. Due to a relatively small number of imaginary frequencies available, we focus on the momentum and temperature dependence of the position of this spectral feature. This dispersion relation reveals different in-medium masses for longitudinal and transversal gluons at high temperatures, qualitatively consistent with weak coupling expectations.

Cusp Catastrophe Models For Students’ Conceptual Understanding Of The Atomic Structure

description: This study investigates students’ fundamental understanding about the atomic structure and ontological features of atoms’ identity and behavior, which, within Complex Dynamical Systems (CDS) perspective, aims to provide rational explanations of students’ failure in learning science. Students’ acquired knowledge is examined as a function of three neo- Piagetian constructs: formal reasoning, field dependence-independence and divergent thinking. Participants (N=167) were secondary education students in tenth grade, who were taking a mandatory chemistry course. The hypothesis is related to nonlinear effects, induced by certain factors, which are expected to be found in learning outcomes. Cusp catastrophe models fitted to empirical data were superior to the linear alternatives and showed that field dependence-independence and divergent thinking can act as bifurcation factors, while formal reasoning acts as the asymmetry factor. The discontinuities in students’ conceptual understanding support a CDS framework and have also important implications for the theories on the nature of students’ knowledge before they attain the science view.
