title: Replication Files - The effects of Italy’s unification on its dual development: a synthetic control approach

description: The files (Stata 18) allow the replication of the results presented in Barone, G., Chilosi, D., Ciccarelli, C., de Blasio, G. (2024), The effects of Italy’s unification on its dual development: a synthetic control approach, European Review of Economic History 

ABSTRACT: 
There is a long-standing debate on the effect of Italian unification (1861) on the country’s dual development. We estimate the causal impact of unification on agricultural share, literacy and railway density for the South and the Centre-North by analysing a newly assembled panel of countries/regions with the synthetic control method. Our findings suggest that over the fifty years following the birth of the unified state, neither area drew generalized benefits from unification. Consolidation delayed industrialization in both macro areas. However, the South benefited from a strong spread of rail infrastructure, while the Centre-North enjoyed a pronounced increase in literacy.

Nghiem T-A E*, Reiniger JL*, Dufour O, Harmening WM*, da Silveira RA* (2025) Fixational eye movements as active sensation for high visual acuity. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 122 (6) e2416266122 [doi:10.1073/pnas.2416266122] 

Abstract
Perception and action are inherently entangled: our world view is shaped by how we explore and navigate our environment through complex and variable self-motion. Even when fixating on a stable stimulus, our eyes undergo small, involuntary movements. Fixational eye movements (FEM) render a stable world jittery on our retinae, which contributes noise to neural coding. Yet, empirical evidence suggests that FEM help rather than harm human perception of fine detail. Here, we elucidate this paradox by uncovering under which conditions FEM improve or impair retinal coding and human acuity. We combine theory and experiment: model accuracy is directly compared to that of healthy human subjects in a visual acuity task. Acuity is modeled by applying an ideal Bayesian classifier to simulations of retinal spiking activity in the presence of FEM. In addition, empirical FEM are monitored using high-resolution eye-tracking by an adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscope. While FEM introduce noise, they also effectively pre-process visual inputs to facilitate retinal information encoding. Based on an interplay of these mechanisms, our model predicts a relation between visual acuity, FEM amplitude, and single-trial stimulus size that quantitatively accounts for experimental observations and captures the beneficial effect of FEM. Moreover, we observe that while human subjects’ FEM statistics vary with stimulus size, our model suggests that subjects’ FEM amplitude remains within a near-optimal range, where acuity is enhanced compared to much larger or smaller amplitudes. Overall, our findings indicate that perception benefits from action even at the fine and noise-dominated spatio-temporal scale of FEM.

title: Supplementary Material for: Effects of Cognitive Functioning and Education on Later-Life Health Numeracy

description: <b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Previous studies have shown an association between a high health numeracy and good cognitive functioning. <b><i>Objective:</i></b> To investigate the moderation effect of education on this relationship and which brain structures support health numeracy. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> We examined 70 healthy older persons (66% females; mean ± SD: age, 75.73 ± 4.52 years; education, 12.21 ± 2.94 years). The participants underwent a T1-weighted 3-T MRI and a neuropsychological assessment including a health numeracy task. Statistical parametric mapping was applied to identify focal changes in cortical thickness throughout the entire brain and to correlate image parameters with behavioral measures. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Executive functions and mental calculation emerged as predictors of health numeracy (<i>B</i> = 0.22, <i>p</i> &lt; 0.05, and <i>B</i> = 0.38, <i>p</i> &lt; 0.01). An interaction was found between education and executive functions (<i>B</i> = –0.16, <i>p</i> = 0.01) and between education and mental calculation (<i>B</i> = –0.11, <i>p</i> &lt; 0.05). Executive functions and mental calculation had an impact on health numeracy in participants with a low to intermediate edu­cation (≤12 years) but not in those with a higher education (&gt;12 years). Health numeracy scores were associated with cortical thickness in the right dorsomedial prefrontal cortex and the right superior temporal gyrus (<i>p</i> = 0.01). <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> Older people with a higher education perform better in health numeracy tasks than those with a lower education. They have access to previously acquired knowledge about ratio concepts and do not need to rely on executive functions and computational skills. This is highly relevant when decisions about health care have to be made.

title: Supplementary Material for: Safety and Efficacy of Self-Expandable Metallic Stent Placement Using Low Radial Force Stent for Malignant Dysphagia after Radiotherapy

description: <b><i>Introduction:</i></b> We aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy of self-expandable metallic stent (SEMS) placement in patients with prior radiotherapy (RT) using the Niti-S stent, which is characterized by low radial force, in comparison to patients without prior RT. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> A consecutive series of 83 patients who were treated by SEMS placement using Niti-S stent for severe malignant esophageal obstruction or fistula were enrolled. The adverse event rates and efficacy were retrospectively compared between patients with/without prior RT before SEMS placement (RT group [<i>n</i> = 32] versus non-RT group [<i>n</i> = 51]). <b><i>Results:</i></b> The incidence rate of major adverse events in the RT group was 6.3% and was not significantly different from that in the non-RT group (5.9%, <i>p</i> = 0.95). Among the RT group, 84.4% were able to resume oral intake within a median of 2 days. Among the patients with fistula, 78.6% could resume oral intake and survive for 73 days after SEMS placement. Cox proportional hazard regression analysis identified significant factors affecting overall survival to be prior RT (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.96), low performance status (HR: 3.87), and subsequent anticancer treatment after SEMS placement (HR: 0.41). However, compared to the non-RT group, the RT group had received longer duration of anticancer treatment before SEMS placement and a lower rate of subsequent anticancer treatment after SEMS placement. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> With the Niti-S stent, the incidence of major adverse events was sufficiently low even for patients after RT. SEMS with low radial force would be an effective palliative treatment option for patients, regardless of prior RT.

Description
There is a double handed digital image dataset of “Sattriya Dance” mostly practiced in Assam. Contributors have uploaded all the images under the title "Sattriya-08 Double Handed Mudra’s Dataset". Double handed mudra's dataset consists of eight (08) double handed mudras of Sattriya dance (Classical dance from Assam). In this repository eight sub folders are created with the names of the eight mudras whose image samples are uploaded here. Each of these eight sub folders have three sub-sub folders with titles " Front_view”, “Left_view” and “Right_view”. The sub-sub folders depict front, left and right views of all the recorded mudras. All the samples are collected by visiting a few prominent Sattriya Dance academy situated in Guwahati.  20 to 30 seconds duration videos were recorded for all the mudras at least from 50 dancers on a coloured background (afterwards background was removed). Video recording was performed using a DSLR Canon Camera (EOS 1200 D). Individual video was converted into image frames and thus were able to get around 2400 .png image frames. Some still images are also captured using the same DSLR Canon Camera (EOS 1200 D). The names and meaning of each Mudra were confirmed after a discussion with a Sattriya dance experts from Guwahati, Assam, India.
	The usage of these data sets are
1.	Developing algorithm for automatic recognition of Mudras.
2.	Developing technique for tracking and analyzing the temporal evolution of Mudras in a dance performance.

title: Device delay mismatch and speech recognition (Richter et al., 2024)

description: <b>Purpose: </b>Cochlear implant (CI) recipients who listen with a hearing aid (HA) in the contralateral ear, known as bimodal listeners, demonstrate individual variability in speech recognition in noise. This variability may be due in part to differences in the processing delays of the CI and HA devices. This study investigated the influence of matching the processing delays of CI and HA devices on masked speech recognition for bimodal listeners.<b>Method: </b>Twelve postlingually deafened adult CI recipients completed a task of masked speech recognition in two listening conditions: (a) independent default CI and HA processing delays (mismatched) and (b) with their HA-specific delay applied to the CI processing delay (matched). Speech recognition was evaluated with AzBio sentences presented in a 10-talker masker at a 0 dB SNR. The target was presented from the front loudspeaker at 0° azimuth, and the masker was co-located with the target, presented 90° toward the CI ear, or presented 90° toward the HA ear.<b>Results: </b>There was a significant main effect for target-to-masker configuration, with better performance when the masker was spatially separated from the target. Better masked speech recognition was observed in the matched condition as compared to the mismatched condition.<b>Conclusion: </b>Bimodal listeners may experience better masked speech recognition when the processing delay of the CI is individualized to match the processing delay of the contralateral HA.<b>Supplemental Material S1.</b> Raw data of speech recognition across masker configurations for the sample, ranked by age at time of test.

title: Anticancer activity of fungal endophytes from Datura stramonium on two human cancer cell lines

description: Datura stramonium is a medicinal plant of the Solanaceae family. The plant is known to produce toxic alkaloids which include atropine, hyoscyamine and scopolamine. The data sets herein represent the findings from the isolation of fungal endophytes from the stems, leaves and seeds of D. stramonium. Eleven fungal endophytes were recovered from the plant and the internal transcribed spacer region (ITS1 and ITS4) of each isolate was sequenced and the data was deposited in GenBank. Accession numbers of each fungal isolate and the phylogeny reconstruction are all shown in Supplementary File 1. Ethyl acetate crude extracts from the fungal isolates were screened for anticancer activity on two human cancer cell lines (UMG87 glioblastoma cells and A549 lung carcinoma cells) using the MTS [3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxymethoxyphenyl)-2-(4-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium] assay. The crude extract from the fungal endophyte Alternaria sp. KTDL7 was found to be cytotoxic on UMG87 glioblastoma cells while the other fungal extracts showed limited anti-proliferation activity on both cell lines. The data cytotoxicity experiments is shown in Supplemetary File 2 and 3. Untargeted secondary metabolite screening for Alternaria sp. KTDL7 was done using LC-QTOF-MS/MS and the data is shown in Supplementary File 4.

title: Experimental dataset for riparian vegetation-sediment interactions

description: These data constitute the results from two experimental flume runs performed at the Korea Institute of Civil Engineering and Building Technology- River Experiment Center in Andong, South Korea. This dataset consists of pre and post experimental photos and one Excel file with different tabs reporting data for the channel bed elevations, vegetation characteristics, hydraulics at three cross sections, and bedload transport measurements at three cross sections. Full experimental details can be found in the Tranmer et al. (In Submission) article published here:

A.W. Tranmer, U. Ji, M. Ahn, S. Jung, E. Yager, (In Submission). Flow hydraulics, sediment supply, and bed morphodynamics as controls on erosion and deposition in and around riparian vegetation patches. Water Resources Research. 

Channel bed elevations were collected with a Reigl LMS-Z390i laser scanner with 6 mm vertical uncertainty. Laser scans were performed before and after each experiment to monitor initial and final bed conditions as well as computing DEMs of difference for each experimental run. These data are reported for each section and zone in and around the vegetation patch.

The vegetation patch consists of 89 three-year-old willows (Salix subfragilis) and characteristics are summarized in the associated tab in the spreadsheet. 

Hydraulic data were produced by near-bed ADV measurements across the channel. Three cross sections were measured located 4 m upstream of the vegetation patch (D0), through the midsection of the patch (D2), and 2 m downstream of the patch (D4). At cross sections D0 and D4 a Nortek Vectrino ADV (25 Hz, 60 s) measured the velocity at 0.25 relative flow depth from the bed (z/h). At cross section D2 through the centerline of the patch, a Sontek microADV (50 Hz, 120 s) measured velocity at 0.2 z/h. These depths were selected as they were the closest to the bed that consistently did not experience interference from mobile bedforms. 

Bedload measurements were performed at three cross sections located 4 m upstream of the vegetation patch (D0), across the upstream head of the vegetation patch (D1), and across the downstream boundary of the vegetation patch (D3). Bedload measurements used a custom bedload sampler with a 21.6 cm2 orifice and the sampler was on the bed for 2-4 min at each sampling location depending on the discharge.

title: SEMANTIC VARIATIONS OF APPRAISAL IN PORTUGUESE AND BRAZILIAN RE-INSTANTIATIONS OF THINGS FALL APART AND ARROW OF GOD

description: Abstract This article expands the investigation in Dias (2018), on semantic variations of appraisal in Brazilian translations of two of Chinua Achebe’s novels, Things Fall Apart (1994[1959]) and Arrow of God (1969[1964]), to the Portuguese translations of these texts. It aims at identifying semantic variations of appraisal in the retranslations as well as testing the retranslation hypothesis originated in Berman (1990). According to theoretical assumptions in this text, the translation of a literary text would be an “incomplete” act that could only achieve completion through retranslations. Previous works on translation of literary texts do not usually investigate appraisal from a discourse-semantics perspective, disregarding it in unfolding texts and using a corpus analysis methodology. Dias (2018) draws on a discourse-semantics model to study Brazilian translations as re-instantiations. This work focuses on excerpts of the Portuguese reinstantiations Tudo se desmorona (2008), from Things Fall Apart, and A flecha de Deus (1979), from Arrow of God. The study uses appraisal analysis as a method to investigate patterns of evaluative configurations of attitude, engagement and graduation in the excerpts studied. The findings, compared to those in Dias (2018), suggest there are semantic variations between the pairs of re-instantiations regarding the appraisal mode, the different coupling and commitment of values, and non-re-instantiations or the instantiation of new values. These results suggest the two reinstantiations are different types of paraphrases of the source text. They also confirm the retranslation hypothesis.

title: CSF-FA in human obesity

description: Hypothalamic inflammation (HI) is a key factor in the onset of obesity. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies have demonstrated the presence of hypothalamic alterations that might indicate HI in subjects with obesity. However, the contribution of dietary factors, such as fatty acids, to these alterations has not been explored in humans. 

We aimed to compare the cerebrospinal fluid fatty acid (CSF-FA) profile between individuals with obesity before and 1-year after bariatric surgery (BS) and normal-weight volunteers and, to assess the association between those CSF-FA differently expressed between groups with MRI markers of HI and the weight-loss trajectory post-BS.

Herein, we present the results obtained through ultra-high performance liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS).
