description: The kilo-Hertz gravitational waves radiated by the neutron star merger remnants carry rich information about the physics of high-density nuclear matter states, and many important astrophysical phenomena such as gamma-ray bursts and black hole formation. Current laser interferometer gravitational wave detectors, such as LIGO, VIRGO, and KAGRA have limited signal response at the kilo-Hertz band, thereby unable to capture these important physical phenomena. This work proposes an alternative protocol for boosting the sensitivity of the gravitational wave detectors at high frequency by implementing an optomechanical quantum amplifier. With the auxiliary quantum amplifier, this design has the feature of Parity-Time (PT) symmetry so that the detection band will be significantly broadened within the kilo-Hertz range. In this work, we carefully analyze the quantum-noise-limited sensitivity and the dynamical stability of this design. Based on our protocol, our result shows that the quantum-noise-limited sensitivity will be improved by one order of magnitude around 3kHz, which indicates the potential of our design for a future search of neutron star merger signals.

description: Feature-based self-explanatory methods explain their classification in terms of human-understandable features. In the medical imaging community, this semantic matching of clinical knowledge adds significantly to the trustworthiness of the AI. However, the cost of additional annotation of features remains a pressing issue. We address this problem by proposing cRedAnno, a data-/annotation-efficient self-explanatory approach for lung nodule diagnosis. cRedAnno considerably reduces the annotation need by introducing self-supervised contrastive learning to alleviate the burden of learning most parameters from annotation, replacing end-to-end training with two-stage training. When training with hundreds of nodule samples and only 1% of their annotations, cRedAnno achieves competitive accuracy in predicting malignancy, meanwhile significantly surpassing most previous works in predicting nodule attributes. Visualisation of the learned space further indicates that the correlation between the clustering of malignancy and nodule attributes coincides with clinical knowledge.

description: Even with the recent works on fNIRS robustness and reproducibility, this technique still lacks of standardised methodological precautions and evidence-based recommendations to guide whole-body movement protocol building. We present a procedure that aimed at verifying the stability of the fNIRS headset during whole-body movements, to properly track the anatomical locations of the recorded signals. In addition, we showed that averaging at least 10 trials for a block-design procedure is necessary to improve fNIRS reproducibility and to obtain a robust haemodynamic response. Finally, we demonstrated that the test–retest reliability of fNIRS signals is high, even in whole-body movement motor paradigms.

description: The mixed quantum-classical dynamical simulation is essential to study nonadiabatic phenomena in photophysics and photochemistry. In recent years, many machine learning models have been developed to accelerate the time evolution of the nuclear subsystem. Herein, we implement long short-term memory (LSTM) networks as a propagator to accelerate the time evolution of the electronic subsystem during the fewest-switches surface hopping (FSSH) simulations. A small number of reference trajectories are generated using the original FSSH method, and then the LSTM networks can be built, accompanied by careful examination of typical LSTM-FSSH trajectories that employ the same initial condition and random numbers as the corresponding reference. The constructed network is applied to FSSH to further produce a trajectory ensemble to reveal the mechanism of nonadiabatic processes. Taking Tully's three models as test systems, the collective results can be reproduced qualitatively. This work demonstrates that LSTM is applicable to the most popular surface hopping simulations.

description: Lyapunov's second or direct method is one of the most widely used techniques for investigating stability properties of dynamical systems. This technique makes use of an auxiliary function, called a Lyapunov function, to ascertain stability properties for a specific system without the need to generate system solutions. An important question is the converse or reversability of Lyapunov's second method; i.e., given a specific stability property does there exist an appropriate Lyapunov function? We survey some of the available answers to this question.

description: We study numerically the statistics of waves for generalized one-dimensional Nonlinear Schrodinger (NLS) equation that takes into account focusing six-wave interactions, dumping and pumping terms. We demonstrate the universal behavior of this system for the region of parameters when six-wave interactions term affects significantly only the largest waves. In particular, in the statistically steady state of this system the probability density function (PDF) of wave amplitudes turns out to be strongly non-Rayleigh one for large waves, with characteristic "fat tail" decaying with amplitude $|Ψ|$ close to $\propto\exp(-γ|Ψ|)$, where $γ>0$ is constant. The corresponding non-Rayleigh addition to the PDF indicates strong intermittency, vanishes in the absence of six-wave interactions, and increases with six-wave coupling coefficient.

description: Background and objectives In 2011, the Centers forMedicare & Medicaid Services implemented bundling of all services for patients receiving dialysis, including erythropoietin-stimulating agents use, and the Food and Drug Administration recommended conservative erythropoietin-stimulating agent dosing. Design, setting, participants, & measurements This retrospective cohort study investigated anemia care and clinical outcomes before and after the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services bundled payment and the revised Food and Drug Administration–recommended erythropoietin-stimulating agent labeling for Medicareinsured adults receiving hemodialysis using data from the United States Renal Data System from January 1, 2006 to December 31, 2016. Clinical outcomes included major adverse cardiovascular event (stroke, acute myocardial infarction, and all-cause mortality), cardiovascular mortality, and heart failure. Measurements were compared between prepolicy (2006–2010) and postpolicy (2012–2016) implementation using interrupted time series and Cox proportional hazards regression models. Results Of 481,564 patients, erythropoietin-stimulating agent use immediately decreased by 84.8 per 1000 persons (P<0.001), with a significant decrease in the slope of the trend line (both P50.001). Blood transfusion use rapidly increased by 8.34 per 1000 persons in April 2012 and then gradually decreased (both P50.001). The percentage of patients with hemoglobin >11 g/dl decreased from 68% in January 2006 to 28% in December 2016, whereas those with hemoglobin >9 g/dl increased from 5% to 9%. Overall major adverse cardiovascular event (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.95; 95% confidence interval, 0.94 to 0.96), stroke (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.83; 95% confidence interval, 0.80 to 0.86), all-cause mortality (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.87; 95% confidence interval, 0.86 to 0.89), cardiovascular mortality (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.81; 95% confidence interval, 0.79 to 0.83), and heart failure (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.86; 95% confidence interval, 0.84 to 0.88) risks were lower. Acute myocardial infarction risk (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.04; 95% confidence interval, 1.01 to 1.06) was higher after policies changed. Conclusions The Medicare reimbursement policy and Food and Drug Administration–recommended erythropoietin-stimulating agent dosing changes were associated with lower erythropoietin-stimulating agent use and lower hemoglobin levels. These changes in anemia care were associated with lower risks of major adverse cardiovascular event, stroke, mortality, and heart failure but higher risk of acute myocardial infarction among adults receiving hemodialysis.

description: Objective(s): This study aimed to characterize the co-utilization of non-benzodiazepine sedative ‘Z’-drugs with opioids at ambulatory care visits in the United States. Design: A cross-sectional analysis of the National Ambulatory Medical Care Survey (NAMCS) from 2006 to 2016 was completed. Setting and participants: Ambulatory care visits in the United States involving adult patients with an opioid prescription were included in the analysis. Outcome measures: The primary outcome was initiation or continuation of a Z-drug (zolpidem, eszopiclone, or zaleplon) in a patient visit in conjunction with an opioid medication. Results: The authors analyzed 564,090,296 visits (weighted from a sample of 28,773) with a reported opioid prescription. Co-utilization of opioids with Z-drugs fluctuated during the study period beginning at 4.0% in 2006 (95% CI 2.2%–5.7%), 6.3% in 2012 (3.7%–8.9%), and 4.7% in 2016 (2.8%–6.5%). Among all opioid visits in the study period, co-utilization with a Z-drug was not significantly different among female patients compared with male patients (5.26% vs. 4.63%, P = 0.26). Among visits with concomitant opioid and Z-drugs, 7.0% reported new initiation of both medications in the same visit. Conclusion: At ambulatory care visits between 2006 and 2016, co-utilization of opioids and Z-drugs fluctuated with some differences by sex. Major regulatory advisories and policy changes during this period may have contributed to these varying rates of utilization. Additional work is needed to identify predictors of co-utilization and downstream consequences more widely.

description: Ist sexualisierte Gewalt und (Angst vor) Viktimisierung ein "Frauenthema", das Männer nicht betrifft? Oder ist von jeweilig geschlechtsspezifischen Gewalterfahrungen auszugehen, mit denen entsprechend unterschiedlich umgegangen wird? Eine Erhebung unter 3000 Studierenden untersucht die Betroffenheit durch sexualisierte Gewalt und stellt die Ergebnisse in einen Kontext mit dem Diskurs zu sexualisierter Gewalt der Frauen- und Männerforschung. Es werden Prävalenzen und Natur der geschlechtsspezifischen Gewalterfahrungen dargelegt, aber auch der Rezeption des Erlebten nachgegangen. Dabei wird deutlich, dass neben normativen Verhaltensvorgaben auch geschlechtsspezifische ("Vergewaltigungs-")Mythen für den gesellschaftlichen Umgang mit dem Opfer und die Einordnung der Tat durch das Opfer selbst maßgeblich sind. Relevant ist dieser Umstand nicht zuletzt für die Unterstützung der Betroffenen durch das Hilfesystem und die Strafverfolgungsorgane.

description: Experiments aiming to directly detect dark matter through particle recoils can achieve energy thresholds of $\mathcal{O}(1\,\mathrm{eV})$. In this regime, ionization signals from small-angle Compton scatters of environmental $γ$-rays constitute a significant background. Monte Carlo simulations used to build background models have not been experimentally validated at these low energies. We report a precision measurement of Compton scattering on silicon atomic shell electrons down to 23$\,$eV. A skipper charge-coupled device (CCD) with single-electron resolution, developed for the DAMIC-M experiment, was exposed to a $^{241}$Am $γ$-ray source over several months. Features associated with the silicon K, L$_{1}$, and L$_{2,3}$-shells are clearly identified, and scattering on valence electrons is detected for the first time below 100$\,$eV. We find that the relativistic impulse approximation for Compton scattering, which is implemented in Monte Carlo simulations commonly used by direct detection experiments, does not reproduce the measured spectrum below 0.5$\,$keV. The data are in better agreement with $ab$ $initio$ calculations originally developed for X-ray absorption spectroscopy.

description: We report the low temperature magnetic properties of Ce$_2$Sn$_2$O$_7$, a rare-earth pyrochlore. Our susceptibility and magnetization measurements show that due to the thermal isolation of a Kramers doublet ground state, Ce$_2$Sn$_2$O$_7$ has Ising-like magnetic moments of $\sim1.18$ $μ_\mathrm{B}$. The magnetic moments are confined to the local trigonal axes, as in a spin ice, but the exchange interactions are antiferromagnetic. Below 1 K the system enters a regime with antiferromagnetic correlations. In contrast to predictions for classical $\langle 111 \rangle$-Ising spins on the pyrochlore lattice, there is no sign of long-range ordering down to 0.02 K. Our results suggest that Ce$_2$Sn$_2$O$_7$ features an antiferromagnetic liquid ground state with strong quantum fluctuations.

description: The method of adiabatic frequency conversion, in analogy with the two level atomic system, has been put forward recently and verified experimentally to achieve robust frequency mixing processes such as sum and difference frequency generation. Here we present a comparative study of efficient frequency mixing using various techniques of shortcuts to adiabaticity (STA) such as counter-diabatic driving and invariant-based inverse engineering. We show that, it is possible to perform sum frequency generation by properly designing the poling structure of a periodically poled crystal and the coupling between the input lights and the crystal. The required crystal length for frequency conversion is significantly decreases beyond the adiabatic limit. Our approach significantly improves the robustness of the process against the variation in temperature as well as the signal frequency. By introducing a single parameter control technique with constant coupling and combining with the inverse engineering, perturbation theory and optimal control, we show that the phase mismatch can be further optimized with respect to the fluctuations of input wavelength and crystal temperature that results into a novel experimentally realizable mixing scheme.

description: Importance: State Medicaid programs have implemented initiatives to expand treatment coverage for opioid use disorder (OUD); however, some Medicaid programs still require prior authorizations (PAs) for filling buprenorphine prescriptions. Objective: To evaluate the changes in buprenorphine use for OUD among Medicaid enrollees in states that completely removed buprenorphine PA requirements. Design, Setting, and Participants: This retrospective cross-sectional study analyzed the immediate and trend changes on buprenorphine use during 2013 to 2020 associated with removal of PA requirements using a controlled interrupted time series analysis to account for autocorrelation. Data were collected from Medicaid State Drug Utilization Data for 2 states (California and Illinois) that completely removed a buprenorphine PA during the study period, and buprenorphine prescriptions for OUD treatment were identified among Medicaid enrollees. Main Outcomes and Measures: Quarterly total number of buprenorphine prescriptions for each state was calculated, and stratification analyses were conducted by dosage form (films and tablets). Results: Among the 2 state Medicaid programs (California and Illinois) that removed buprenorphine PAs, there was a total of 702643 and 415115 eligible buprenorphine prescription claims, respectively. After removing PA requirements for buprenorphine, there was an immediate increase that was not statistically significant (rate ratio [RR], 1.11; 95% CI, 0.76-1.61) in the number of all buprenorphine prescriptions in California and a statistically significant increase (RR, 6.99; 95% CI, 4.67-10.47) in the number of all buprenorphine prescriptions in Illinois relative to the change in the control states (Alabama, Florida, Idaho, Kansas, Mississippi, Nevada, South Dakota, and Wyoming). Additionally, there was a statistically significant decreasing trend in the number of all buprenorphine prescriptions in California (RR, 0.88; 95% CI, 0.82-0.94) and a statistically significant increasing trend in Illinois (RR, 1.11; 95% CI, 1.05-1.19) relative to the trend in control states. Conclusions and Relevance: In this cross-sectional study, removal of buprenorphine PA requirements was associated with a statistically significant increase in the number of buprenorphine prescription fills among Medicaid populations in 1 of the 2 included states.

description: The endocrine system plays a very important role in the regulation of almost all vital processes in the human body. Endocrine glands produce hormones, disruption of this process leads to serious diseases. There are various etiological factors causing endocrine system dysfunction. Often, the endocrine system appears as a result of a primary disorder of the nervous system. Damage to the higher nervous system as a result of nerve damage can lead to thyroid disease, Bazedov's disease or damage to the pancreas and diabetes. Endocrine gland dysfunction is caused by inflammatory processes of the cerebral cortex and nearby subcortical centers, traumas, hemorrhages, or the development of thrombosis of cerebral vessels.

description: Besides improving communication performance, intelligent reflecting surfaces (IRSs) are also promising enablers for achieving larger sensing coverage and enhanced sensing quality. Nevertheless, in the absence of a direct path between the base station (BS) and the targets, multi-target sensing is generally very difficult, since IRSs are incapable of proactively transmitting sensing beams or analyzing target information. Moreover, the echoes of different targets reflected via the IRS-established virtual links share the same directionality at the BS. In this paper, we study a wireless system comprising a multi-antenna BS and an IRS for multi-target sensing, where the beamforming vector and the IRS phase shifts are jointly optimized to improve the sensing performance. To meet the different sensing requirements, such as a minimum received power and a minimum sensing frequency, we propose three novel IRS-assisted sensing schemes: Time division (TD) sensing, signature sequence (SS) sensing, and hybrid TD-SS sensing. First, for TD sensing, the sensing tasks are performed in sequence over time. Subsequently, a novel signature sequence (SS) sensing scheme is proposed to improve sensing efficiency by establishing a relationship between directions and SSs. To strike a flexible balance between the beam pattern gain and sensing efficiency, we also propose a general hybrid TD-SS sensing scheme with target grouping, where targets belonging to the same group are sensed simultaneously via SS sensing, while the targets in different groups are assigned to orthogonal time slots. By controlling the number of groups, the hybrid TD-SS sensing scheme can provide a more flexible balance between beam pattern gain and sensing frequency. Moreover, ...

description: An exact map was established by Lacroix-A-Chez-Toine, Majumdar, and Schehr in [44] between the $N$ complex eigenvalues of complex non-Hermitian random matrices from the Ginibre ensemble, and the positions of $N$ non-interacting Fermions in a rotating trap in the ground state. An important quantity is the statistics of the number of Fermions $\mathcal{N}_a$ in a disc of radius $a$. Extending the work [44] covering Gaussian and rotationally invariant potentials $Q$, we present a rigorous analysis in planar complex and symplectic ensembles, which both represent 2D Coulomb gases. We show that the variance of $\mathcal{N}_a$ is universal in the large-$N$ limit, when measured in units of the mean density proportional to $ΔQ$, which itself is non-universal. This holds in the large-$N$ limit in the bulk and at the edge, when a finite fraction or almost all Fermions are inside the disc. In contrast, at the origin, when few eigenvalues are contained, it is the singularity of the potential that determines the universality class. We present three explicit examples from the Mittag-Leffler ensemble, products of Ginibre matrices, and truncated unitary random matrices. Our proofs exploit the integrable structure of the underlying determinantal respectively Pfaffian point processes and a simple representation of the variance in terms of truncated moments at finite-$N$.

description: Vor dem Hintergrund des künftig häufigeren und intensiveren Auftretens sowie der längeren Dauer von Extremwetterereignissen, die dem Klimawandel zugeschrieben werden, steigt die Relevanz von Extremwetterereignissen auch für Industrienationen. Gleichzeitig gilt die allgemeine Bereitschaft für Klimaschutzmaßnahmen als eher gering. Insofern knüpft dieser Beitrag1 einerseits an die politische Frage nach einem effektiven globalen Klimaschutz und andererseits an das gesellschaftliche Problembewusstsein für den Klimawandel an. Konkret wird der Frage nachgegangen, ob die Einschätzung des Klima- wandels als Gefährdung in Form von Extremwetterereignissen eine Rolle bei der Unterstützung politischer Maßnahmen zum Klimaschutz wie einem Preis für Treibhausgasemissionen spielt. Die zur Beantwortung verwendeten Konzepte basieren auf denen der Risikowahrnehmung und der Betroffenheit im Rahmen der Vulnerabilitätsanalyse. Empirisch wurde eine Sekundäranalyse mit mehreren binären, logistischen Regressionsmodellen auf Basis der Mikrodaten aus der 2. Welle der Umweltbewusstseinsstudie 2016 durchgeführt. Diese zeigten, dass (1) die generelle Unterstützung politischer Maßnahmen zum Klimaschutz in Deutschland ungewöhnlich hoch ist, und dass (2) eine stärkere wahrgenommene Gefährdung durch den Klimawandel eher zur Unter- stützung politischer Maßnahmen zum Klimaschutz führt.
description: As there are likely to be more numerous, more intensive, as well as longer extreme weather events, their social relevance rises. At the same time, public support for climate mitigation is relatively low. Thus, this research focuses on first, the political question of effective global climate change mitigation and second the social perception or awareness of the climate change. More concrete, the question is about the role of perceived climate change risks in the form of extreme weather events in supporting climate change mitigation policies like a price for greenhouse gas emissions. The concepts used were derived from those of risk perception as well as consternation with reference to vulnerability analysis. Empirically, a secondary analysis with the method of the logistic regression and based on the data set of the second wave of the 2016 Umweltbewusstseinsstudie was conducted. They showed, that (1) in Germany the overall support of climate change policies is surprisingly high and (2) that a strong perceived climate change risk based on extreme weather events increases the probability of supporting those policies.

description: Algebraic weak factorisation systems (AWFS) refine weak factorisation systems by requiring that the assignations sending a map to its first and second factors should underlie an interacting comonad--monad pair on the arrow category. We provide a comprehensive treatment of the basic theory of AWFS---drawing on work of previous authors---and complete the theory with two main new results. The first provides a characterisation of AWFS and their morphisms in terms of their double categories of left or right maps. The second concerns a notion of cofibrant generation of an AWFS by a small double category; it states that, over a locally presentable base, any small double category cofibrantly generates an AWFS, and that the AWFS so arising are precisely those with accessible monad and comonad. Besides the general theory, numerous applications of AWFS are developed, emphasising particularly those aspects which go beyond the non-algebraic situation.

description: We examined the prevalence trends of non-human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) sexually transmitted infections (STI) and associated patient characteristics in U.S. ambulatory-care settings from 2005–2016. We conducted a retrospective repeated cross-sectional analysis using data from the National Ambulatory Medical Care Survey (NAMCS) for individuals aged 15–64 with a non-HIV STI-related visit. Data were combined into three periods (2005–2008, 2009–2012, and 2013–2016) to obtain reliable estimates. Logistic regression was used for analysis. A total of 19.5 million weighted, non-HIV STI-related ambulatory visits from 2005–2016 were identified. STI-related visits per 100,000 ambulatory care visits increased significantly over the study period: 206 (95% CI = 153–259), 343 (95% CI = 279–407), and 361 (95% CI = 277–446) in 2005–2008, 2009–2012, and 2013–2016, respectively (Ptrend = 0.003). These increases were mainly driven by increases in HPV-related visits (56 to 163 per 100,000 visits) from 2005–2008 to 2009–2012, followed by syphilis-or gonorrhea-related visits (30 to 67 per 100,000 visits) from 2009–2012 to 2013–2016. Higher odds of having STI-related visit were associated with younger age (aged 15–24: aOR = 4.45; 95% CI = 3.19–6.20 and aged 25–44: aOR = 3.59; 95% CI = 2.71–4.77) vs. 45–64-year-olds, Black race (aOR = 2.41; 95% CI = 1.78–3.25) vs. White, and HIV diagnosis (aOR = 10.60; 95% CI = 5.50–20.27) vs. no HIV diagnosis. STI-related office visits increased by over 75% from 2005–2016, and were largely driven by HPV-related STIs and syphilis-or gonorrhea-related STIs.

description: Background: Many states have implemented opioid days’ supply restriction policies, leading to reductions in opioid prescribing. Although research within certain provider types exist, no study has evaluated a restriction policy by various provider types. Objective: To evaluate changes in opioid utilization following a days’ supply restriction policy stratified by provider type: surgery, emergency medicine, primary care, specialty care, and dentistry. Design: Interrupted time series (ITS) Participants: Opioid prescription claims of patients in a private health plan serving a large Florida employer from 1/1/2015 to 3/31/2019. Provider types were determined using the Healthcare Provider Taxonomy Code associated with the national provider identifier (NPI). Interventions: Florida’s opioid restriction policy implemented on July 1, 2018. Main Measures: Changes in mean morphine milligram equivalent (MMEs), mean days’ supply, and mean number of units dispensed per opioid prescription before and after policy implementation. Key Results: There were 10,583 opioid initial prescriptions dispensed. Treating providers were classified as surgery (16.4%; n = 1732), emergency care (14.3%; n = 1516), primary care (21.2%; n = 2241), specialty care (11.4%; n = 1207), and dentistry providers (23.7%; n = 2511). Significant reductions in mean days’ supply were observed across most provider types ranging from 14% reduction for dentistry providers to 41% reduction for specialty care providers. Significant changes were observed for emergency care and specialty care providers with a 30% (p = 0.001)and 29% (p < 0.001) reduction in mean MME, respectively, and a 27% (p = 0.040) reduction in mean number of units dispensed in emergency care providers, after implementation. Pre-implementation trends in opioid prescribing varied by provider type impacting the effects of the opioid days’ supply restriction policy. Conclusions: Pre-policy opioid prescribing varied by provider type with a differential impact on mean MMEs, mean days’ supply, and mean number of units dispensed per prescription following implementation.

description: We investigate the operation of torus surgery on tori embedded in $S^4$. Key questions include which 4-manifolds can be obtained in this way, and the uniqueness of such descriptions. As an application we construct embeddings of 3-manifolds into 4-manifolds by viewing Dehn surgery as a cross section of a surgery on a surface. In particular, we give new embeddings of homology spheres into $S^4$.

description: Importance: Previous research has shown an immediate reduction in new opioid users and use after implementation of the opioid supply restriction laws. Assessment of the association between opioid restrictions and alternative treatment options, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), is needed to evaluate potential unintended consequences for patients requiring analgesia. Objective: To evaluate the association between an opioid restriction law in Florida and use of prescription NSAIDs. Design, Setting, and Participants: This quality improvement study used interrupted time series analyses accounting for autocorrelation to estimate immediate and trend changes in the prescribing and use of prescription NSAIDs in Florida before and after implementation of a state law limiting opioid prescriptions to a 3-day supply. Participants were enrollees in a single private health plan of a large university and health system employer in Florida from January 2015 to June 2019. Exposures: Prescriptions for NSAIDs, ascertained from pharmacy claims data. Main Outcomes and Measures: The following outcomes were calculated monthly per 1000 plan enrollees: (1) number of NSAID users; (2) mean days' supply of NSAIDs per prescription; and (3) mean number of NSAID prescriptions. Individuals were classified as NSAID users if they had at least 1 NSAID prescription in a given month. Analysis was stratified by route of NSAID administration (oral or nonoral). Results: Among 46783 NSAID users with 79089 NSAID prescriptions during the study period, the median age was 47 years (interquartile range, 35-57 years). After implementation of the opioid restriction law, the number of NSAID users immediately increased, but the difference was not significant (change, 0.82 per 1000 patients; 95% CI, -0.67 to 2.30 per 1000 patients). No significant change in the days' supply of oral NSAID users occurred (change, 0.21 days per prescription; 95% CI, -1.66 to 2.08 days per prescription). Before implementation of the law, there was a nonsignificant decreasing trend in NSAID prescriptions (rate of change, -0.03 per month per 1000 enrollees; 95% CI, -0.13 to 0.07 per month per 1000 enrollees; after implementation, there was a nonsignificant increase in the number of oral and nonoral NSAID prescriptions (change, 1.49 per 1000 enrollees; 95% CI, -3.38 to 6.37 per 1000 enrollees). Conclusions and Relevance: In this quality improvement study, prescribing and use of prescription NSAIDs did not increase after implementation of a law restricting opioid analgesic prescriptions in Florida. These findings suggest possible greater use of over-the-counter NSAIDs after implementation of the law, but further research is needed to evaluate changes in the use of nonopioid analgesics and alternative pain therapies.

description: We explore the possible cosmological consequence of the gravitational coupling between the inflaton and axion-like fields. In view of the forthcoming cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization and lensing data, we study the sensitivity of the CMB data on the cross-correlation between the curvature and axion isocurvature perturbations. Through a concrete example, we illustrate the explicit dependence of the scale dependent cross-correlation power spectrum on the axion parameters.

description: Photonic lattices have emerged as a promising approach to localize light in space, for example, through topologically protected edge states and Aharonov-Bohm caging. They are of particular importance in the study of flat band systems via the associated nondiffracting compact localized states. However, such states typically appear static, thus not allowing adaptive or evolutionary features of light localization. Here we report on the first experimental realization of an oscillating compact localized state (OCLS). We observe an oscillatory intensity beating during propagation in a two-dimensional photonic decorated Lieb lattice. The photonic system is realized by direct femtosecond laser writing and hosts multiple flat bands at different eigenenergies in its band structure. Our results open new avenues for evolution dynamics in the up to now static phenomenon of light localization in periodic waveguide structures.
