description: Introduction: Fracture-related infections (FRI) and periprosthetic joint infections (PJI) represent a major challenge in orthopedic surgery. Incidence of both entities is annually growing. Comorbidities play an important role as an influencing factor for infection and thus, for prevention and treatment strategies. The aims of this study were (1) to analyze the frequency of comorbidities in FRI and PJI patients and (2) to evaluate comorbidities as causative risk factor for PJI and FRI. Methods: This retrospective cohort study analysed all ICD-10 codes, which were coded as secondary diagnosis in all in hospital-treated FRI and PJI in the year 2019 in Germany provided by the Federal Statistical Office of Germany (Destatis). Prevalence of comorbidities was compared with the prevalence in the general population. Results: In the year 2019, 7158 FRIs and 16,174 PJIs were registered in Germany, with 68,304 comorbidities in FRI (mean: 9.5 per case) and 188,684 in PJI (mean: 11.7 per case). Major localization for FRI were infections in the lower leg (55.4%) and forearm (9.2%), while PJI were located mostly at hip (47.4%) and knee joints (45.5%). Mainly arterial hypertension (FRI: n = 3645; 50.9%—PJI: n = 11360; 70.2%), diabetes mellitus type II (FRI: n = 1483; 20.7%—PJI: n = 3999; 24.7%), obesity (FRI: n = 749; 10.5%—PJI: n = 3434; 21.2%) and chronic kidney failure (FRI: n = 877; 12.3%—PJI: n = 3341; 20.7%) were documented. Compared with the general population, an increased risk for PJI and FRI was reported in patients with diabetes mellitus (PJI: 2.988; FRI: 2.339), arterial hypertension (PJI: 5.059; FRI: 2.116) and heart failure (PJI: 6.513; FRI: 3.801). Conclusion: Patients with endocrinological and cardiovascular diseases, in particular associated with the metabolic syndrome, demonstrate an increased risk for orthopedic implant related infections. Based on the present results, further infection prevention and treatment strategies should be evaluated.

description: We investigate the quantum-state transfer on spin-chian channels with random imperfections.Through combining the advantages of two known schemes, the dual-rail spin-chain channels[9] and the particular ihhomogenous spin-chain channel[10], we propose a protocol that can avoid the quantum noises introduced by many unnecessary measurements and can enhance the anti-decoherence ability. The results show that our protocol is more efficient to transfer an arbitrary quantum state than the original one. In particular, we discuss the effects of couplings fluctuations and imperfect initialization on both of the improved scheme and original one.

Perceptions/Attitudes/Experiences of School Staff

description: Background: The concept of ‘trauma-informed practice’ (TIP) has developed over the last twenty years. Recently, TIP has been applied to schools in acknowledging the widespread nature of trauma and preventing impacts on education, and mental health and wellbeing more broadly. ‘Trauma-informed schools’ are increasingly prevalent in the USA and are beginning to emerge in the UK. Preliminary research suggests positive results however research exploring school staff, perspectives is lacking. This is important in informing the development of this approach.

Aims: This research explores school staff perceptions on the impact of trauma and TIP in UK schools. It aims to present perceptions of trauma and TIP, to explore experiences of responding to trauma and identify any barriers and areas for
development.

Method: Semi-structured interviews took place with thirteen school staff members working in a variety of roles, across a range of schools. Interviews were analysed using Thematic Analysis.

Results: Thematic Analysis generated three themes: ‘Theory to practice: challenges defining trauma and TIP’; ‘Practice to theory: current response to trauma in schools’; ‘The influence of the wider context’. Eight subthemes were also generated.

Conclusions: Although staff are largely unfamiliar with TIP and internalise a lack of expertise in the absence of training or guidelines, their individual practice is
consistent with TIP. Indeed, findings suggest the barriers to a whole-school approach lie in the wider context. Implications highlight the need for an education paradigm shift towards prioritising wellbeing, and for greater funding and resource in schools and other public services, enabling a systemic approach. With greater resource and capacity, findings suggest TIP may be an acceptable and meaningful
framework to embed in schools. This should involve strategic investment, wholeschool policy and training, staff support, and community involvement. The Covid-19 pandemic has both increased barriers and provided hope for a systemic shift.

description: The Superconducting Cyclotron has started working in the axial injection mode.Until September 1999 it worked as a booster of the Tandem, and the beam was radially injected in the median plane. Now the beam is produced by an ECR source and injected  along the axis. Therefore, the Cyclotron has been provided with an inflector and a central region. The design calculations are here presented. The pieces of the axial equipment are shown as manufactured by the company.The inflector and the central region were assembled in December 1999. In January 2000, the first beam in the new mode has been injected, accelerated and extracted.

Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays from Cosmological Relics

Publisher: name: INFN Open Access Repository
Year: 2000

description: The current status of origin of Ultra High Energy Cosm c Rays (UHECR) is reviewed,with emphasis given to elementary particle solutions to UHECR problem, namely to Topological Defects and Super-Heavy Dark Matter (SHDM)particles.The relic superheavy particles are very efficiently produced at inflation. Being protected by gauge discrete symmetries,they can be long lived.They are clustering in the Galactic halo, producing thus UHECR without Greisen-Zatsepin-Kuzmin cutoff. Topological Defects can naturally produce particles with energies as observed and much higher, but in most cases fail to produce the observed fluxes. Cosmic necklaces, monopoles connected by strings and vortons are identified as most plausible sources. The latter two of them are also clustering in the halo and their observational predictions are identical to those of SHDM particles.

description: The Junction Box is the part of the ANTARES project where the main electro optical cable from the shore is splitted into the 13 lines that power the detector strings. The different active components housed inside will produce a total amount of heat greater than 1 KW; it is therefore important to guarantee a good heat dissipation to avoid damages to the instrumentation due to local overheating. This report describes the test performed in our laboratory using the titanium box equipped with different heaters and submerged in a water bath at 15C to simulate the real conditions. The results have defined the optimal configuration in order to guarantee a safe margin with respect to the maximum temperature allowed by the instrumentation; simulations performed with the FEA code show good agreement with the measured temperatures.

description: We theoretically demonstrate how the resonant coupling between a pair of cavity-polaritons and a biexciton state can lead to a large single-photon Kerr nonlinearity in a semiconductor solid-state system. A fully analytical model of the scattering process between a pair of cavity-polaritons is developed, which explicitly includes the biexcitonic intermediate state. A dramatic enhancement of the polariton-polariton interactions is predicted in the vicinity of the biexciton Feshbach resonance. Application to the generation of non-classical light from polariton dots is discussed.

description: The extent of inequality in material wealth across different types of societies is well established. Less clear, however, is how material wealth is associated with relational wealth, and the implications of such associations for material wealth inequality. Theory and evidence suggest that material wealth both guides, and is patterned by, relational wealth. While existing comparative studies typically assume complementarity between different types of wealth, such associations may differ for distinct kinds of relational wealth. Here, we first review the literature to identify how and why different forms of relational wealth may align. We then turn to an analysis of household-level social networks (food sharing, gender-specific friendship and gender-specific co-working networks) and material wealth data from a rural community in Pemba, Zanzibar. We find that (a) the materially wealthy have most relational ties, (b) the associations between relational and material wealth—as well as relational wealth more generally—are patterned by gender differences, and (c) different forms of relational wealth have similar structural properties and are closely aligned. More broadly, we show how examining the patterning of distinct types of relational wealth provides insights into how and why inequality in material wealth remains muted in a community undergoing rapid economic change.This article is part of the theme issue ‘Title’.

description: This paper clarifies the picture about Dense-choice Counter Machines, which have been less studied than (discrete) Counter Machines. We revisit the definition of "Dense Counter Machines" so that it now extends (discrete) Counter Machines, and we provide new undecidability and decidability results. Using the first-order additive mixed theory of reals and integers, we give a logical characterization of the sets of configurations reachable by reversal-bounded Dense-choice Counter Machines.

description: This paper demonstrates the usefulness of pulsed laser ablation in liquids as a fast screening synthesis method able to prepare even complex compositions at the nanoscale. Nanoparticles of Y2O3:Eu3+, Lu2O2S: Eu3+, Gd2SiO5:Ce3+ and Lu3TaO7:Gd3+,Tb3+ are successfully synthesized by pulsed laser ablation in liquids. The phase and stoichiometries of the original materials are preserved while the sizes are reduced down to 5-10 nm. The optical properties of the materials are also preserved but show some small variations and some additional structures which are attributed to the specificities of the nanoscale (internal pressure, inhomogeneous broadening, surface states...)
Anticipation and the Non-linear Dynamics of Meaning-Processing in Social Systems

description: Social order does not exist as a stable phenomenon, but can be considered as "an order of reproduced expectations." When anticipations operate upon one another, they can generate a non-linear dynamics which processes meaning. Although specific meanings can be stabilized, for example in social institutions, all meaning arises from a global horizon of possible meanings. Using Luhmann's (1984) social systems theory and Rosen's (1985) theory of anticipatory systems, I submit algorithms for modeling the non-linear dynamics of meaning in social systems. First, a self-referential system can use a model of itself for the anticipation. Under the condition of functional differentiation, the social system can be expected to entertain a set of models; each model can also contain a model of the other models. Two anticipatory mechanisms are then possible: a transversal one between the models, and a longitudinal one providing the system with a variety of meanings. A system containing two anticipatory mechanisms can become hyper-incursive. Without making decisions, however, a hyper-incursive system would be overloaded with uncertainty. Under this pressure, informed decisions tend to replace the "natural preferences" of agents and a knowledge-based order can increasingly be shaped.

Unified Time Analysis of Photon and  (Nonrelativistic) Particle Tunnelling, and the Superluminal Group-Velocity Problem

Publisher: name: INFN Open Access Repository
Year: 2001

description: A unified approach to the time analysis of tunnelling of nonrelativistic particles is presented, in which Time is regarded as a quantum-mechanical observable, canonically conjugated to Energy. The validity of the Hartman effect (independence of the Tunnelling Time of the opaque barrier width, with Superluminal group velocities as a consequence) is verified for all the known expressions of the mean tunnelling time. Moreover, the analogy between particle and photon tunnelling is suitably exploited. On the basis of such an  analogy, an explanation of some recent microwave and optics experimental results on tunnelling times is proposed. Attention is devoted to some aspects of the causality problem for particle and photon tunnelling.

Design/methodology/approach. We designed the course based on several years of experience and knowledge obtained from previous iterations. For evaluating the course’s usefulness, we used standardized questionnaires and a focus group. Findings. We complement the body of courses on business models by presenting a master-leveled course design seeking to enhance students’ awareness for acting sustainably utilizing a business model development perspective, and a set of lessons learned and recommendations to be employed by, for example, course designers. Research limitations/implications. By focusing on business model development, we gathered promising results indicating an increased awareness to act sustainably. Thereby we open further research avenues that, for instance, may investigate the effect of specific tools on students’ awareness or behavior, explore the applicability of existing tools within a university context, or develop new tools for supporting students in gaining an understanding of sustainability via business model development. Practical implications. Course designers and lecturers in particular can apply the presented design and draw on the experiences and recommendations we obtained from performing our course to create or refine existing/new university courses. Originality/value. We provide valuable insight on how to design business model courses that empower students to contribute to sustainable development by describing a suitable structure, assignments, and content.

description: We perform a detailed study of bosonic type IIA string theory in a large light-cone momentum / near plane wave limit of $AdS_4 \times CP_3$. In order to attain this we derive the Hamiltonian up to cubic and quartic order in number of fields and calculate the energies for string excitations in a $R\times S^2 \times S^2$ subspace. The computation for the string energies is performed for arbitrary length excitations utilizing an unitary transformation which allows us to remove the cubic terms in the Hamiltonian. We then rewrite a recent set of proposed all loop Bethe equations in a light-cone language and compare their predictions with the obtained string energies. We find perfect agreement.

description: AGILE (Light Imager for Gamma-ray Astrophysics) is the first small scientific mis-sion of ASI, the Italian Space Agency. It is a light (100 kg for the scientific instrument) satellite for the detection of gamma-ray sources in the energy range 30 MeV - 50 GeV within a large field of view (1/4 of the sky). It is planned to be operational in the years 2003-2006, a period in which no other gamma-ray mission in the same energy range is foreseen.AGILE is made of a silicon tungsten tracker, a CsI(Tl) minicalorimeter (1.5 X0), an anticoincidence system of segmented plastic scintillators and a X-ray imaging detector sensitive in the 10-40 keV range. The tracker consists of 14 planes, each of them made of two layers of 16 single-sided, AC coupled, 410 μm thick, 9.5x9.5 cm 2 silicon detectors with a readout pitch of 242 μm and a floating strip. The readout ASIC is the TAA1, an analog-digital, low noise, self triggering ASIC used in a very low power configuration (< 400 μW/channel) with full analog readout. The trigger of the satellite is given by the tracker. The total number of readout channels is around 43000. We present a detailed description of the tracker, its trigger and readout logic, its assembly procedures and the prototype performance in several testbeam periods at the CERN PS.

description: The quark combination mechanism of QGP hadronization is applied to nucleus-nucleus collisions at top SPS energy. The yields, rapidity and transverse momentum distributions of identified hadrons in most central Pb+Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}= 17.3$ GeV are systematically studied. The calculated results are in agreement with the experimental data from NA49 Collaboration. The longitudinal and transverse collective flows and strangeness of the hot and dense quark matter produced in nucleus-nucleus collisions at top SPS energy are investigated. It is found that the collective flow of strange quarks is stronger than light quarks, which is compatible with that at RHIC energies, and the strangeness is almost the same as those at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=$ 62.4, 130, 200 GeV.

description: Many different systems with explicit substitutions have been proposed to implement a large class of higher-order languages. Motivations and challenges that guided the development of such calculi in functional frameworks are surveyed in the first part of this paper. Then, very simple technology in named variable-style notation is used to establish a theory of explicit substitutions for the lambda-calculus which enjoys a whole set of useful properties such as full composition, simulation of one-step beta-reduction, preservation of beta-strong normalisation, strong normalisation of typed terms and confluence on metaterms. Normalisation of related calculi is also discussed.

description: The vertical structure of temperature observed by SABER (Sounding of Atmosphere using Broadband Emission Radiometry) aboard TIMED (Thermosphere, Ionosphere, Mesosphere Energetics and Dynamics) and sprites observations made during the Eurosprite 2003 to 2007 observational campaign were analyzed. Sprite observations were made at two locations in France, namely Puy de Dome in the French Massif Central and at the Pic du Midi in the French Pyrenees. It is observed that the vertical structure of temperature shows evidence for a Mesospheric Inversion Layer (MIL) on those days on which sprites were observed. A few events are also reported in which sprites were not recorded, although there is evidence of a MIL in the vertical structure of the temperature. It is proposed that breaking gravity waves produced by convective thunderstorms facilitate the production of (a) sprites by modulating the neutral air-density and (b) MILs via the deposition of energy. The same proposition has been used to explain observations of lightings as well as both MILs and lightning arising out of deep convections.

description: The antimicrobial activity and preservative effect of Ceylon spinach (Basella alba L.) seed protein extract on sturgeon fillets stored at 4°C were investigated in this study. The results showed that Ceylon spinach seed protein extract (CSSPE) had inhibitory effect on 33 microorganisms, including 1 fungus and 32 bacteria (25 gram-negative bacteria and 7 gram-positive bacteria). In addition, CSSPE inhibited bacterial growth (total viable counts, Pseudomonas, Aeromonas and psychrotrophs), suppressed ATP degradation and retained good-quality characteristic of sturgeon fillets stored at 4°C. The shelf life of 30 mg/mL CSSPE treated fillets was around 7 days according to the results of total viable count, which extended around 2 days compared with that of the control group. The stability of CSSPE was also evaluated, and the results showed that CSSPE had excellent stability under UV irradiation, monovalent metal ions, surfactant and protease treatment. CSSPE could maintain high antimicrobial activity within the range of pH 2–8 and 12–13 and its thermal denaturation temperature was 70°C. The results suggested that CSSPE had the potential to be developed as a preservative for aquatic products.

description: When two selection environments operate upon each other, mutual shaping in a co-evolution along a particular trajectory is one possible outcome. When three selection environments are involved, more complex dynamics can be expected as a result of interactions involving bi-lateral and tri-lateral relations. Three selection environments are specified in the Triple Helix model: (1) wealth generation (industry), (2) novelty production (academia), and (3) public control (government). Furthermore, this model somewhat reduces the complexity by using university-industry-government relations for the specification of the historical conditions of the non-linear dynamics. One can no longer expect a one-to-one correspondence between institutions and functions; a statistics is needed for the evaluation of how, for how long, and to what extent institutional arrangements enhance synergies among different selection environments. The empirical contributions to this Triple Helix issue point in the direction of "rich ecologies": the construction of careful balances between differentiation and integration among the three functions.

description: As the availability of Linked Open Data (LOD) expands and leads to the creation ofmore derived and aggregated data, the demand for increasing the trust factor associatedwith this data has grown. Provenance tracking has shown to be a feasible approach toincreasing reliability of data, however, a uniform approach for handling provenance dataof LOD at a global level has not yet been established.This presents a challenging issue as data provenance frequently possesses numerousdomain-specific characteristics. This further enforces the limited interoperability ofcurrent solutions across different data management systems. In order to address theseproblems and achieve a unified and interoperable solution for provenance tracking, it isessential to develop an architecture that can cater to the varied needs of different domainsand data catalogs while maintaining a high degree of adaptability and scalability.In recent years, decentralized networks have gained popularity with the emergence ofblockchain and distributed ledger technologies. These technologies offer a promisingapproach to addressing the challenges associated with provenance tracking by providing asecure and tamper-resistant platform for storing and managing provenance information.In this thesis, we propose a platform capable of multi-domain support that leveragesstate-of-the-art research regarding blockchain-based storage and tamper-resistant man-agement of provenance information. The solution can be used with different existing datamanagement systems for LOD, regardless of their underlying technology or implementa-tion. In this way we address current limitations in the field of provenance tracking andenhance data quality and trustworthiness across various data management and analyticaluse cases. A key emphasis is placed on data systems powered by knowledge graphs, whichpossess the capability to make inferences and offer a more in-depth comprehension of thedata.

description: We extend the technique originally proposed by Honda et al.to measure the temperature of Ytterbium and alkine-earth atoms confined in a Magneto-Optical Trap (MOT). The method is based on the analysis of excitation spectra obtained by probing the 1S0->3P1 inter-combination line. Thanks to a careful analysis and modeling of the effects caused by the MOT light on the probe transition we overcome the resolution and precision limits encountered in previous works. Ground state light shift and Rabi broadening are measured and successfully compared with calculated values. This knowledge allows us to properly extract the Doppler contribution to the linewidth, thus obtaining a reliable measurement of the cloud temperature. We finally show how spectroscopy on free-falling atoms provides an alternative method to determine the sample temperature which resembles the standard time-of-flight technique.

description: The Zwin tidal inlet and marshland system was nearly doubled in surface in 2019 when a large part of the Willem-Leopold polder was incorporated in the floodable area. The main channel connecting the marshlands to the sea is characterized by a complex 3D morphology with a main channel, sandy bedforms including banks and bars as well as secondary channels. Their presence and movements reflect active sediment transport in the system. The inlet is controlled by hydrodynamics (currents and water level), beach dynamics, tidal prism and sediment supply. This study reports the morpho- and hydrodynamics of the entire tidal channel part from before the opening of the dyke on 04/02/2019 to nearly 3 years after. The results indicate significant morphological changes in the entire channel system where the main channel has become deeper, wider and migrated eastward. Since the opening, the sediment balance is stable in the entrance inlet. In contrast, the inland inlet has lost a significant sediment volume. Short term dynamics in the middle of the entrance and inland inlet unit were studied during field campaigns under calm and energetic conditions. A regime of ebb dominance is found in the center of the channel and to a lower degree at its east side, while the west side of the channel is flood-dominated. In general, the ebb phase lasts about two times the duration of the flood phase. Based on the tidal prism and cross-sectional area analysis, it is concluded that the expansion of the intertidal area in early 2019 meant a very significant increase of tidal prism, which almost quadrupled. The response in the main channel was rapid and strong. A recent sandbank was quickly cleared during the first year after the expansion. As a result, the channel cross-sectional area at the border of the entrance inlet and the inland inlet attained a new equilibrium around 450 m² at the Spring 2020 survey. This section was only reduced by about 10 m² at the Spring 2021 survey. The continued monitoring programme will help to fine tune the insights into the process-response of the Zwin inlet and to estimate the time scales of the expected sanding up in order to guide future management and interventions

description: In this paper, a class of relay networks is considered. We assume that, at a node, outgoing channels to its neighbors are orthogonal, while incoming signals from neighbors can interfere with each other. We are interested in the multicast capacity of these networks. As a subclass, we first focus on Gaussian relay networks with interference and find an achievable rate using a lattice coding scheme. It is shown that there is a constant gap between our achievable rate and the information theoretic cut-set bound. This is similar to the recent result by Avestimehr, Diggavi, and Tse, who showed such an approximate characterization of the capacity of general Gaussian relay networks. However, our achievability uses a structured code instead of a random one. Using the same idea used in the Gaussian case, we also consider linear finite-field symmetric networks with interference and characterize the capacity using a linear coding scheme.

description: Obesity and sarcopenic obesity (SO) are characterized by excess body fat with or without low muscle mass affecting bio-psycho-social health, functioning, and subsequently quality of life in older adults. We mapped outcomes addressed in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on lifestyle interventions in community-dwelling older people with (sarcopenic) obesity. Systematic searches in Medline, Embase, Cochrane Central, CINAHL, PsycInfo, Web of Science were conducted. Two reviewers independently performed screening and extracted data on outcomes, outcome domains, assessment methods, units, and measurement time. A bubble chart and heat maps were generated to visually display results. Fifty-four RCTs (7 in SO) reporting 464 outcomes in the outcome domains: physical function (n = 42), body composition/anthropometry (n = 120), biomarkers (n = 190), physiological (n = 30), psychological (n = 47), quality of life (n = 14), pain (n = 4), sleep (n = 2), medications (n = 3), and risk of adverse health events (n = 5) were included. Heterogeneity in terms of outcome definition, assessment methods, measurement units, and measurement times was found. Psychological and quality of life domains were investigated in a minority of studies. There is almost no information beyond 52 weeks. This evidence map is the first step of a harmonization process to improve comparability of RCTs in older people with (sarcopenic) obesity and facilitate the derivation of evidence-based clinical decisions.
