1. Hydrogenation Studies of Iridium Pyridine Diimine Complexes with O- and S-Donor Ligands (Hydroxido, Methoxido and Thiolato)

Author: Max Völker, Matthias Schreyer, and Peter Burger
Subjects: metal-OR and metal-SR ligand hydrogenation, hydrogenation mechanism, metal-ligand dπ,pπ-interaction, Ir-O,S bond dissociation enthalpies, DFT, P/LNO-CCSD(T) calculations, Chemistry, QD1-999
Abstract: For square-planar late transition metal pyridine, diimine (Rh, Ir) complexes with hydro-xido, methoxido, and thiolato ligands. We could previously establish sizable metal-O- and S π-bonding interactions. Herein, we report the hydrogenation studies of iridium hydroxido and methoxido complexes, which quantitatively lead to the trihydride compound and water/methanol. The iridium trihydride displays a highly fluctional structure with scrambling hydrogen atoms, which can be described as a dihydrogen hydride system based on NMR and DFT investigations. This contrasts the iridium sulfur compounds, which are not reacting with dihydrogen. According to DFT and LNO-CCSD(T) calculations, hydrogenation of the methoxido complex proceeds by a two-step mechanism, i.e., an oxidative addition step of H2 to an Ir(III) dihydride intermediate with consecutive reductive O-H elimination of methanol. Based on PNO-CCSD(T) calculations, the reactivity difference between the O- and S-donors can be traced to the stronger H-O bonds in the water/methanol products compared to the S-H bonds in the sulphur congeners, which serves as a driving force for hydrogenation.

2. Syntheses, Crystal and Electronic Structures of Rhodium and Iridium Pyridine Di-Imine Complexes with O- and S-Donor Ligands: (Hydroxido, Methoxido and Thiolato)

Author: Michel Stephan, Max Völker, Matthias Schreyer, and Peter Burger
Subjects: metal–ligand dπ-pπ-interaction, Ir-O,S bond dissociation enthalpies, DFT, P/LNO-CCSD(T) calculations, oxidation state analysis, metal–ligand charge transfer, Chemistry, QD1-999
Abstract: The syntheses of new neutral square-planar pyridine di-imine rhodium and iridium complexes with O- and S-donor (OH, OR, SH, SMe and SPh) ligands along with analogous cationic compounds are reported. Their crystal and electronic structures are investigated in detail with a focus on the non-innocence/innocence of the PDI ligand. The oxidation states of the metal centers were analyzed by a variety of experimental (XPS and XAS) and theoretical (LOBA, EOS and OSLO) methods. The dπ-pπ interaction between the metal centers and the π-donor ligands was investigated by theoretical methods and revealed the partial multiple-bond character of the M-O,S bonds. Experimental support is provided by a sizable barrier for the rotation about the Ir-S bond in the methyl thiolato complex and confirmed by DFT and LNO-CCSD(T) calculations. This was corroborated by the high Ir-O and Ir-S bond dissociation enthalpies calculated at the PNO-CCSD(T) level.

3. MINErosion 4: Using measurements from a tilting flume-rainfall simulator facility to predict erosion rates from post-mining catchments/landscapes in Central Queensland, Australia

Abstract: The use of draglines to remove overburden in Queensland opencut mines, results in landscapes that consist of long parallel tertiary overburden spoil-piles that are generally highly saline, dispersive, and highly erodible. The height of these spoil-piles may exceed 50–60 m above the original landscapes and the slopes are at the angle of repose of around 75% or 37°. Legislation and public opinion require that these highly disturbed open-cut post-mining landscapes should be satisfactorily rehabilitated into an approved post-mining land use with acceptable erosion rates. Therefore, these slopes must be reduced before the landscape can be rehabilitated. The most expensive component of the rehabilitation process is the re-shaping and preparation of the overburden to create a suitable landscape for vegetation growth. As soils and overburden varies greatly in their erodibilities, the extent and cost of earthworks can be minimized, and rehabilitation failures avoided, if soil erosion from designed landscapes can be predicted using laboratory-based parameters prior to construction of these landscapes. This paper describes the development of a model for that purpose.A catchment or landscape erosion model MINErosion 4 was developed by upscaling the existing hillslope model MINErosion 3 (So, et al., 2018) and integrate it with both ESRI ArcGIS 10.3 or QGIS 3.16 (freeware), to predict event based and mean annual erosion rate from a postmining catchment or landscape. MINErosion 3 is a model that can be used to predict event and annual erosion rates from field scale hillslopes using laboratory measured erodibility parameters or routinely measured soil physical and chemical properties, and to derive suitable landscape design parameters (slope gradient, slope length and vegetation cover) that will result in acceptable erosion rates. But it cannot be used to predict the sediment delivery from catchments or landscapes. MINErosion 4 was validated against data collected on three instrumented catchments (up to 0.91 ha in size) on the Curragh mine site in Central Queensland. The agreement between predicted (Y) and measured (X) values were very good with the regression equation of Y = 0.92X and an R2 value of 0.81 for individual storm events, and Y = 1.47X and an R2 value of 0.73 for the average annual soil loss. This is probably the first time that a catchment scale erosion is successfully predicted from laboratory measured erodibility parameters.

Subjects: cardiac testing, cardiovascular disease, coronavirus, COVID-19, global health, Diseases of the circulatory (Cardiovascular) system, RC666-701
Abstract: Background: The coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic significantly affected management of cardiovascular disease around the world. The effect of the pandemic on volume of cardiovascular diagnostic procedures is not known. Objectives: This study sought to evaluate the effects of the early phase of the COVID-19 pandemic on cardiovascular diagnostic procedures and safety practices in Asia. Methods: The International Atomic Energy Agency conducted a worldwide survey to assess changes in cardiovascular procedure volume and safety practices caused by COVID-19. Testing volumes were reported for March 2020 and April 2020 and were compared to those from March 2019. Data from 180 centers across 33 Asian countries were grouped into 4 subregions for comparison. Results: Procedure volumes decreased by 47% from March 2019 to March 2020, showing recovery from March 2020 to April 2020 in Eastern Asia, particularly in China. The majority of centers cancelled outpatient activities and increased time per study. Practice changes included implementing physical distancing and restricting visitors. Although COVID testing was not commonly performed, it was conducted in one-third of facilities in Eastern Asia. The most severe reductions in procedure volumes were observed in lower-income countries, where volumes decreased 81% from March 2019 to April 2020. Conclusions: The COVID-19 pandemic in Asia caused significant reductions in cardiovascular diagnostic procedures, particularly in low-income countries. Further studies on effects of COVID-19 on cardiovascular outcomes and changes in care delivery are warranted.

5. The very low risk of myocarditis and pericarditis after mRNA COVID-19 vaccination should not discourage vaccination

Abstract: The benefits of vaccination – regarding COVID-19 infection and transmission, as well as COVID-associated complications – clearly outweigh the potential risk of vaccine-associated inflammation of the heart and other adverse events. Given the current state of knowledge, the outcome of myocarditis and pericarditis following vaccination is generally good. This review aims to guide physicians in the early diagnosis and management of suspected myocarditis following mRNA COVID vaccination. The initial work-up should include detailed history, a 12-lead electrocardiogram and serological biomarkers (high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T/I, natriuretic peptides and markers of inflammation) in accordance with the assessments recommended in current clinical practice guidelines for patients presenting with acute chest pain. In patients with suspected myocarditis, further assessment with transthoracic echocardiography and cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging should be undertaken to confirm peri-/myocarditis and to distinguish the findings from other diseases with similar presentation. Patients with mRNA vaccine-associated myocarditis should be followed-up at least once to exclude chronic myocardial inflammation and deterioration of left ventricular ejection fraction. Consultation with an expert such as an immunologist with experience in vaccination regarding further mRNA vaccinations is advised in all patients with mRNA vaccine-associated perimyocarditis. Reporting of mRNA vaccine-associated myocarditis to Swissmedic is mandatory. Cohort studies prospectively follow-up on young adult and paediatric populations following immunisation with an mRNA COVID vaccine to monitor cardiac and immune parameters would generate valuable knowledge to better understand pathogenesis and risk factors for vaccine-associated perimyocarditis.

7. Studenten strooien hete centen voor het volk. Stedelijke identiteit en de geschiedenis van een omstreden herinnering in Leiden (1841-2016)

Author: Bart Van der Steen and Peter Burger
Subjects: Leiden, urban legends, studenthistory, Social history and conditions. Social problems. Social reform, HN1-995, Economic history and conditions, HC10-1085
Abstract: Legend has it that students in the Dutch university town of Leiden used to throw coins in the street for the less well-off citizens. Picking up the coins, these risked burning their fingers: the students had heated the coins in a skillet. This story is told as emblematic for the social and cultural differences dividing laborers and students, or, more generally, ‘town and gown’. Opinions differ about the veracity of the story and the time period during which this prank was perpetrated. Our study of this local legend is based on local newspapers and other digitized sources that have recently become available, allowing us to trace the story over a time period that spans the years 1841-2016. The hot coins prank is related to a more benign, internationally known custom during which both throwers and throwees know what to expect. In the Netherlands, stories about the prank have become associated in particular with the town of Leiden, becoming more prominent during the 20th century, after the prank itself was no longer performed. We read the hot coin legend in the context of collective memory and urban identity: over the course of two centuries, various social groups have used the story as a boundary marker between in-group and out-group, and more broadly as a means to reflect on the shifting identity of the town. During the years of urban renewal in the second half of the twentieth century, Leiden transformed from an old, poor, industrial town into a modern, affluent urban centre that touts itself as a ‘city of knowledge’. Rhetorically, the hot coin legend is presented as a test case for social cohesion: did Leiden truly leave behind its divided history?

Subjects: Medicine, Science
Abstract: Background This research is an investigation into the role of expert quotes in health news, specifically whether news articles containing a quote from an independent expert are less often exaggerated than articles without such a quote. Methods Retrospective quantitative content analysis of journal articles, press releases, and associated news articles was performed. The investigated sample are press releases on peer-reviewed health research and the associated research articles and news stories. Our sample consisted of 462 press releases and 668 news articles from the UK (2011) and 129 press releases and 185 news articles from The Netherlands (2015). We hand-coded all journal articles, press releases and news articles for correlational claims, using a well-tested codebook. The main outcome measures are types of sources that were quoted and exaggeration of correlational claims. We used counts, 2x2 tables and odds ratios to assess the relationship between presence of quotes and exaggeration of the causal claim. Results Overall, 99.1% of the UK press releases and 84.5% of the Dutch press releases contain at least one quote. For the associated news articles these percentages are: 88.6% in the UK and 69.7% in the Netherlands. Authors of the study are most often quoted and only 7.5% of UK and 7.0% of Dutch news articles contained a new quote by an expert source, i.e. one not provided by the press release. The relative odds that an article without an external expert quote contains an exaggeration of causality is 2.6. Conclusions The number of articles containing a quote from an independent expert is low, but articles that cite an external expert do contain less exaggeration.

Abstract: Meningiomas are the most common primary intracranial tumors. Surgical resection remains the treatment of choice for these tumors. However, a significant number of tumors are not surgically accessible, recur, or become malignant, necessitating the repetition of surgery and sometimes radiation. Chemotherapy is rarely used and is generally not recognized as an effective treatment. Cancer/testis (CT) genes represent a unique class of genes, which are expressed by germ cells, normally silenced in somatic cells, but activated in various cancers. CT proteins can elicit spontaneous immune responses in patients with cancer and this feature makes them attractive targets for immunotherapy-based approaches. We analyzed mRNA expression of 37 testis-restricted CT genes in a discovery set of 18 meningiomas by reverse transcription PCR. The overall frequency of expression of CT genes ranged from 5.6% to 27.8%. The most frequently expressed was NY-ESO-1, in 5 patients (27.8%). We subsequently analyzed NY-ESO-1 protein expression in a larger set of meningiomas by immunohistochemistry and found expression in 108 of 110 cases. In some cases, NY-ESO-1 expression was diffused and homogenous, but in most instances it was heterogeneous. Importantly, NY-ESO-1 expression was positively correlated with higher grade and patients presenting with higher levels of NY-ESO-1 staining had significantly worse disease-free and overall survival. We have also shown that NY-ESO-1 expression may lead to humoral immune response in patients with meningioma. Considering the limited treatment options for patients with meningioma, the potential of NY-ESO-1–based immunotherapy should be explored. Cancer Immunol Res; 1(5); 296–302. ©2013 AACR.

19. MINErosion 3: Using measurements on a tilting flume-rainfall simulator facility to predict erosion rates from post-mining landscapes in Central Queensland, Australia.

Author: Hwat Bing So, Ashraf M Khalifa, Bofu Yu, Chris Caroll, Peter Burger, and David Mulligan
Subjects: Medicine, Science
Abstract: Open-cut coal mining in Queensland results in the formation of extensive saline overburden spoil-piles with steep slopes at the angle of repose (approximately 75% or 37o). These spoil-piles are generally found in multiple rows, several kilometers in length and heights of up to 50 or 60 m above the original landscape. They are highly dispersive and erodible. Legislation demands that these spoil piles be rehabilitated to minimize on-site and off-site discharges of sediment and salt into the surrounding environment. To achieve this, the steep slopes must be reduced, stabilized against erosion, covered with topsoil and re-vegetated. Key design criteria (slope gradient, slope length and vegetation cover) are required for the construction of post-mining landscapes that will result in acceptable erosion rates. A novel user-friendly hillslope computer model MINErosion 3.4 was developed that can accurately predict potential erosion rates from field scale hillslopes using parameters measured with a 3m laboratory tilting flume-rainfall simulator or using routinely measured soil physical and chemical properties. This model links MINErosion 2 with a novel consolidation and above ground vegetation cover factors, to the RUSLE and MUSLE equations to predict the mean annual and storm event erosion rates. The RUSLE-based prediction of the mean annual erosion rates allow minesites to derive the key design criteria of slope length, slope gradient and vegetation cover that would lead to acceptable erosion rates. The MUSLE-based prediction of storm event erosion rates will be useful as input into risk analysis of potential damage from erosion. MINErosion 3.4 was validated against erosion measured on 20 m field erosion plots established on post-mining landscapes at the Oakey Creek and Curragh coalmines, as well as on 120 and 70 m erosion plots on postmining landscapes at Kidston Gold Mine.

21. Synthesis and reactivity of dinuclear copper(I) pyridine diimine complexes

Author: Michel Stephan, Wiebke Dammann, and Peter Burger
Subjects: Inorganic Chemistry
Abstract: The reaction of a tethered pyridine diimine (PDI) ligand with copper(I) chloride yielded a μ-chlorido bridged cationic dicopper(I) PDI complex, which is a rare structural motif. The geometric constraint of the ligand is fostering attractive van der Waals interactions between the coplanar pyridine units. This is supported by an Atoms in Molecules (AIM) and NCI (non-covalent interaction) analysis. Reaction with carbon monoxide yields the corresponding mono- and dicarbonyl complexes, which display reversible binding of carbon monoxide. This equilibrium was studied by

Subjects: Communication
Abstract: Graphs are useful to communicate concisely about complex issues. Although they facilitate intuitive reading of data, trends, and predictions, hasty readers may still come to the wrong conclusions, especially if graphs are misleading due to violated design conventions. To provide evidence about how to prevent misinformation from spreading by misleading graphs, this two-survey experimental study investigates the effectiveness of four correction methods as debunking strategies to correct bar charts with manipulated vertical axes. All four methods showed positive effects. The most effective one is aimed at correcting the initial image by presenting an accurate alternative graph. A reduced effect remained visible after one week.

Abstract: The paper aims to analyse the sectoral division of the national economy in the Slovak Republic from various points of view. The authors examine the developmental changes in the number of people employed in different economic sectors (primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary) from 1948 to 2018 reflecting the natural development of the economy over that time. In order to do this, they have used a logical and comparative study of theoretical knowledge in accordance with the analysis of empirical data. The descriptive statistics are based on a sample of aggregate data about sectoral division in the Slovak Republic for the period 1948–2018. A cluster analysis on the data of sectoral division in all EU member states in 2010 and in 2017 was carried out in order to obtain a basic overview and opportunity to compare. The main focus of this paper is to examine the impact of sectoral division of the national economy on the Slovak Republic’s real GDP per capita. The research is based on panel regression as well as Granger causality tests on a sample of all 8 Slovak regions between 2001 and 2018. The results of the Granger causality tests show that causality runs one-way from all four sectors to real GDP per capita. Based on this, it is appropriate to carry out panel regression analysis. The results of this analysis suggest that all given sectors in period t−1 have had a significant impact on GDP per capita. In particular, the primary and secondary sectors have both had a relatively significant negative impact while the tertiary and quaternary sectors have had a positive one. It is interesting that the tertiary sector has had a greater positive impact than the quaternary one in the Slovak Republic.

Abstract: BACKGROUND The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has adversely affected diagnosis and treatment of noncommunicable diseases. Its effects on delivery of diagnostic care for cardiovascular disease, which remains the leading cause of death worldwide, have not been quantified. OBJECTIVES The study sought to assess COVID-19`s impact on global cardiovascular diagnostic procedural volumes and safety practices. METHODS The International Atomic Energy Agency conducted a worldwide survey assessing alterations in cardiovascular procedure volumes and safety practices resulting from COVID-19. Noninvasive and invasive cardiac testing volumes were obtained from participating sites for March and April 2020 and compared with those from March 2019. Availability of personal protective equipment and pandemic-related testing practice changes were ascertained. RESULTS Surveys were submitted from 909 inpatient and outpatient centers performing cardiac diagnostic procedures, in 108 countries. Procedure volumes decreased 42% from March 2019 to March 2020, and 64% from March 2019 to April 2020. Transthoradc echocardiography decreased by 59%, transesophageat echocardiography 76%, and stress tests 78%, which varied between stress modalities. Coronary angiography (invasive or computed tomography) decreased 55% (p < 0.001 for each procedure). hi multivariable regression, significantly greater reduction in procedures occurred for centers in countries with lower gross domestic product. Location in a low-income and lower-middle-income country was associated with an additional 22% reduction in cardiac procedures and less availability of personal protective equipment and teteheatth. CONCLUSIONS COVID-19 was associated with a significant and abrupt reduction in cardiovascular diagnostic testing across the globe, especially affecting the world's economically challenged. Further study of cardiovascular outcomes and COVID-19-related changes in care delivery is warranted. (C) 2021 The Authors.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: The extent to which health care systems have adapted to the COVID-19 pandemic to provide necessary cardiac diagnostic services is unknown.OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to determine the impact of the pandemic on cardiac testing practices, volumes and types of diagnostic services, and perceived psychological stress to health care providers worldwide.METHODS: The International Atomic Energy Agency conducted a worldwide survey assessing alterations from baseline in cardiovascular diagnostic care at the pandemic's onset and 1 year later. Multivariable regression was used to determine factors associated with procedure volume recovery.RESULTS: Surveys were submitted from 669 centers in 107 countries. Worldwide reduction in cardiac procedure volumes of 64% from March 2019 to April 2020 recovered by April 2021 in high- and upper middle-income countries (recovery rates of 108% and 99%) but remained depressed in lower middle- and low-income countries (46% and 30% recovery). Although stress testing was used 12% less frequently in 2021 than in 2019, coronary computed tomographic angiography was used 14% more, a trend also seen for other advanced cardiac imaging modalities (positron emission tomography and magnetic resonance; 22%-25% increases). Pandemic-related psychological stress was estimated to have affected nearly 40% of staff, impacting patient care at 78% of sites. In multivariable regression, only lower-income status and physicians' psychological stress were significant in predicting recovery of cardiac testing.CONCLUSIONS: Cardiac diagnostic testing has yet to recover to prepandemic levels in lower-income countries. Worldwide, the decrease in standard stress testing is offset by greater use of advanced cardiac imaging modalities. Pandemic-related psychological stress among providers is widespread and associated with poor recovery of cardiac testing.

26. Centralised or decentralised public financing of clusters

Author: Nataša Urbančíková and Peter Burger
Subjects: clusters, cluster policies, financing clusters, public funds, innovation performance, European countries, Business, HF5001-6182
Abstract: The public funds have become a major source of finance for clusters in the last decade, also in European countries. The source of financing clusters and innovation performance of the countries is directly connected to subjects of the national/regional cluster policy, i.e. to its centralisation. The paper examines the relationship between European country attitude towards financial support provided for cluster and country innovative performance in a sample of 125 clusters from 25 European countries. The own empirical investigation is based on primary research using the Kruskal-Wallis test and Mann-Whitney tests with Bonferroni. The investigation is focused on facts whether statistically significant differences in the amount of subsidies from national, regional, local and “European” levels between clusters in European countries influence their level of innovation performance. The finding shows that there are no statistically significant differences in the exploitation of resources from the Structural Funds and community programmes of the EU in the examined clusters in the countries with different levels of innovation performance. However, the clusters in the countries with higher levels of innovation performance receive funds in the form of central government and regional self-government subsidies more frequently than the clusters in the countries with lower levels of innovation performance.

It also predicts which sectors of the national economy (primary, secondary, tertiary or quaternary) will grow in Slovakia in 2020–2025 and which sectors will stagnate or decline. The results predict a steadily declining share of people employed in the primary and secondary sectors in Slovakia and in the self-governing regions investigated. In contrast, the share of the quaternary sector in total employment is likely to increase up to 2025 both in Slovakia and in the Bratislava and Kosice Regions. The share of employees in the tertiary sector is expected to grow in Slovakia, but at the same time it is confirmed that in the Bratislava Region there is a gradual reallocation of employees working in the services sector and an increase in the share of employees working in the quaternary sector at the expense of the tertiary sector. This expected development of the shares of employees in the individual sectors and, in particular, the increase in the share of employees in the quaternary sector are in line with the reallocation of the shares of employees in the sectors of the national economies of the developed EU countries, especially the countries of Western and Northern Europe.

Abstract: The redox flow battery (RFB) is a promising technology for the storage of electric energy. Many commercial RFBs are often based on acidic vanadium electrolyte solutions that have limitations regarding stability and energy density. Here, a new approach is presented that is inspired by nature's electron storage, i.e. iron–sulfur clusters [Fe4S4(SR)4]2−. In combination with imidazolium cations, new ionic liquid electrolyte materials were obtained and characterized with regard to their physico- and electrochemical properties. For flow battery tests, the bromide/bromine redox-couple was used in the second half cell in an ionic liquid solution. In these measurements, liquid iron–sulfur clusters show high coulombic (>95%) and energy (69%) efficiencies combined with a high theoretical energy density (88 W h L−1).

Abstract: Background: In early 2020, COVID-19 massively hit Italy, earlier and harder than any other European country. This caused a series of strict containment measures, aimed at blocking the spread of the pandemic. Healthcare delivery was also affected when resources were diverted towards care of COVID-19 patients, including intensive care wards. Aim of the study: The aim is assessing the impact of COVID-19 on cardiac imaging in Italy, compare to the Rest of Europe (RoE) and the World (RoW). Methods: A global survey was conducted in May–June 2020 worldwide, through a questionnaire distributed online. The survey covered three periods: March and April 2020, and March 2019. Data from 52 Italian centres, a subset of the 909 participating centres from 108 countries, were analyzed. Results: In Italy, volumes decreased by 67% in March 2020, compared to March 2019, as opposed to a significantly lower decrease (p < 0.001) in RoE and RoW (41% and 40%, respectively). A further decrease from March 2020 to April 2020 summed up to 76% for the North, 77% for the Centre and 86% for the South. When compared to the RoE and RoW, this further decrease from March 2020 to April 2020 in Italy was significantly less (p = 0.005), most likely reflecting the earlier effects of the containment measures in Italy, taken earlier than anywhere else in the West. Conclusions: The COVID-19 pandemic massively hit Italy and caused a disruption of healthcare services, including cardiac imaging studies. This raises concern about the medium- and long-term consequences for the high number of patients who were denied timely diagnoses and the subsequent lifesaving therapies and procedures.

Abstract: Fact-checking has always been a central task of journalism, but given the ever-growing amount and speed of news offline and online, as well as the growing amounts of misinformation and disinformation, it is becoming increasingly important to support human fact-checkers with (semi-)automated methods to make their work more efficient. Within fact-checking, the detection of check-worthy claims is a crucial initial step, since it limits the number of claims that require or deserve to be checked for their truthfulness. In this paper, we present FactRank, a novel claim detection tool for journalists specifically created for the Dutch language. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first and still the only such tool for Dutch. FactRank thus complements existing online claim detection tools for English and (a small number of) other languages. FactRank performs similarly to claim detection in ClaimBuster, the state-of-the-art fact-checking tool for English. Our comparisons with a human baseline also indicate that given how much even expert human fact-checkers disagree, there may be a natural “upper bound” on the accuracy of check-worthiness detection by machine-learning methods. The specific quality of FactRank derives from the interdisciplinary and iterative process in which it was created, which includes not only a high-performance deep-learning neural network architecture, but also a principled approach to defining and operationalising the concept of check-worthiness via a detailed codebook. This codebook was created jointly by expert fact-checkers from the two countries that have Dutch as an official language (Belgium/Flanders and the Netherlands). We expect FactRank to be very useful exactly because of the way we defined check-worthiness, and because of how we have made this explicit and traceable.

Abstract: Background: The coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic significantly affected management of cardiovascular disease around the world. The effect of the pandemic on volume of cardiovascular diagnostic procedures is not known. Objectives: This study sought to evaluate the effects of the early phase of the COVID-19 pandemic on cardiovascular diagnostic procedures and safety practices in Asia. Methods: The International Atomic Energy Agency conducted a worldwide survey to assess changes in cardiovascular procedure volume and safety practices caused by COVID-19. Testing volumes were reported for March 2020 and April 2020 and were compared to those from March 2019. Data from 180 centers across 33 Asian countries were grouped into 4 subregions for comparison. Results: Procedure volumes decreased by 47% from March 2019 to March 2020, showing recovery from March 2020 to April 2020 in Eastern Asia, particularly in China. The majority of centers cancelled outpatient activities and increased time per study. Practice changes included implementing physical distancing and restricting visitors. Although COVID testing was not commonly performed, it was conducted in one-third of facilities in Eastern Asia. The most severe reductions in procedure volumes were observed in lower-income countries, where volumes decreased 81% from March 2019 to April 2020. Conclusions: The COVID-19 pandemic in Asia caused significant reductions in cardiovascular diagnostic procedures, particularly in low-income countries. Further studies on effects of COVID-19 on cardiovascular outcomes and changes in care delivery are warranted.

Abstract: OBJECTIVES: The INCAPS COVID Oceania study aimed to assess the impact caused by the COVID-19 pandemic on cardiac procedure volume provided in the Oceania region. METHODS: A retrospective survey was performed comparing procedure volumes within March 2019 (pre-COVID-19) with April 2020 (during first wave of COVID-19 pandemic). Sixty-three (63) health care facilities within Oceania that perform cardiac diagnostic procedures were surveyed, including a mixture of metropolitan and regional, hospital and outpatient, public and private sites, and 846 facilities outside of Oceania. The percentage change in procedure volume was measured between March 2019 and April 2020, compared by test type and by facility. RESULTS: In Oceania, the total cardiac diagnostic procedure volume was reduced by 52.2% from March 2019 to April 2020, compared to a reduction of 75.9% seen in the rest of the world (p

Abstract: Background Oligodendroglioma is a rare primary central nervous system (CNS) tumor with highly variable outcome and for which therapy is usually not curative. At present, little is known regarding the pathways involved with progression of oligodendrogliomas or optimal biomarkers for stratifying risk. Developing new therapies for this rare cancer is especially challenging. To overcome these challenges, the neuro-oncology community must be particularly innovative, seeking multi-institutional and international collaborations, and establishing partnerships with patients and advocacy groups thereby ensuring that each patient enrolled in a study is as informative as possible. Methods The mission of the National Cancer Institute’s NCI-CONNECT program is to address the challenges and unmet needs in rare CNS cancer research and treatment by connecting patients, health care providers, researchers, and advocacy organizations to work in partnership. On November 19, 2018, the program convened a workshop on oligodendroglioma, one of the 12 rare CNS cancers included in its initial portfolio. The purpose of this workshop was to discuss scientific progress and regulatory challenges in oligodendroglioma research and develop a call to action to advance research and treatment for this cancer. Results The recommendations of the workshop include a multifaceted and interrelated approach covering: biology and preclinical models, data sharing and advanced molecular diagnosis and imaging; clinical trial design; and patient outreach and engagement. Conclusions The NCI-CONNECT program is well positioned to address challenges in oligodendroglioma care and research in collaboration with other stakeholders and is developing a list of action items for future initiatives.
