Abstract
Understanding universal aspects of quantum dynamics is an unresolved problem in statistical mechanics. In particular, the spin dynamics of the one-dimensional Heisenberg model were conjectured as to belong to the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) universality class based on the scaling of the infinite-temperature spin-spin correlation function. In a chain of 46 superconducting qubits, we studied the probability distribution of the magnetization transferred across the chain's center, [Formula: see text]. The first two moments of [Formula: see text] show superdiffusive behavior, a hallmark of KPZ universality. However, the third and fourth moments ruled out the KPZ conjecture and allow for evaluating other theories. Our results highlight the importance of studying higher moments in determining dynamic universality classes and provide insights into universal behavior in quantum systems.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is no standard of care for ≥ 3rd-line treatment of metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC). CBP501 is a novel calmodulin-binding peptide that has been shown to enhance the influx of platinum agents into tumor cells and tumor immunogenicity. This study aimed to (1) confirm efficacy of CBP501/cisplatin/nivolumab for metastatic PDAC observed in a previous phase 1 study, (2) identify combinations that yield 35% 3-month progression-free survival rate (3MPFS) and (3) define the contribution of CBP501 to the effects of combination therapy. METHODS CBP501 16 or 25 mg/m2 (CBP(16) or CBP(25)) was combined with 60 mg/m2 cisplatin (CDDP) and 240 mg nivolumab (nivo), administered at 3-week intervals. Patients were randomized 1:1:1:1 to (1) CBP(25)/CDDP/nivo, (2) CBP(16)/CDDP/nivo, (3) CBP(25)/CDDP and (4) CDDP/nivo, with randomization stratified by ECOG PS and liver metastases. A Fleming two-stage design was used, yielding a one-sided type I error rate of 2.5% and 80% power when the true 3MPFS is 35%. RESULTS Among 36 patients, 3MPFS was 44.4% in arms 1 and 2, 11.1% in arm 3% and 33.3% in arm 4. Two patients achieved a partial response in arm 1 (ORR 22.2%; none in other arms). Median PFS and OS were 2.4, 2.1, 1.5 and 1.5 months and 6.3, 5.3, 3.7 and 4.9 months, respectively. Overall, all treatment combinations were well tolerated. Most treatment-related adverse events were grade 1-2. CONCLUSIONS The combination CBP(25)/(16)/CDDP/nivo demonstrated promising signs of efficacy and a manageable safety profile for the treatment of advanced PDAC. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION NCT04953962.

Abstract
Background Hypertension (HTN) is common in discharged emergency department (ED) patients, yet the short-term outcomes of treating HTN at ED discharge are unclear. This study aimed to investigate whether emergency physician (EP) prescription of oral antihypertensive therapy at ED discharge for hypertensive patients is associated with a decreased 30-day risk of the severe adverse events (AEs), death, and revisits to the ED. Methods We conducted an observational cohort study assessing the 30-day outcomes of discharged ED patients with HTN, comparing outcomes based on whether antihypertensive therapy was prescribed. All discharged adult ED patients from an eight-hospital system with a diagnosis of HTN from January 2016 to February 2020 were screened, and consisted of a mix of suburban and urban patients with broad ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds. Patients were categorized into the treatment group if they received a prescription for antihypertensive medication at ED discharge. The primary outcome was severe composite AEs from HTN (aortic catastrophe, heart failure, myocardial infarction, hemorrhagic and ischemic stroke, or hypertensive encephalopathy) within 30 days of ED discharge. The secondary outcomes were death or ED revisit over the same period. Results The study sample consisted of 93,512 ED visits; 57.5% were female, and mean age was 59.3 years. 4.7% of patients were prescribed antihypertensive treatment at ED discharge. Within 30 days, 0.7% of patients experienced an AE, 0.1% died, and 15.2% had an ED revisit. The treatment group had significantly lower odds of AE (adjusted odds ratio [aOR]: 0.224, 95%CI 0.106-0.416, p < 0.001), and ED revisits (aOR: 0.610, 95%CI 0.547-0.678, p < 0.001), adjusting for age, race, degree of HTN, ED treatment for elevated HTN, Elixhauser comorbidity index, and heart failure history. There was no difference in odds of death 30 days after discharge. Conclusion and relevance Prescription antihypertensive therapy for discharged ED patients is associated with a 30-day decrease in severe adverse events and ED revisit rate.

Abstract
Engineered dissipative reservoirs have the potential to steer many-body quantum systems toward correlated steady states useful for quantum simulation of high-temperature superconductivity or quantum magnetism. Using up to 49 superconducting qubits, we prepared low-energy states of the transverse-field Ising model through coupling to dissipative auxiliary qubits. In one dimension, we observed long-range quantum correlations and a ground-state fidelity of 0.86 for 18 qubits at the critical point. In two dimensions, we found mutual information that extends beyond nearest neighbors. Lastly, by coupling the system to auxiliaries emulating reservoirs with different chemical potentials, we explored transport in the quantum Heisenberg model. Our results establish engineered dissipation as a scalable alternative to unitary evolution for preparing entangled many-body states on noisy quantum processors.

Abstract
Background: Several centers have reported their experience with single-port robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (SP-RAPN); however, it is uncertain if utilization of this platform represents an improvement in outcomes compared to multiport robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (MP-RAPN). To evaluate this, we performed a meta-analysis to compare the perioperative, oncological, and functional outcomes between SP-RAPN and MP-RAPN. Methods: For relevant articles, three electronic databases, including PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science, were searched from their inception until January 1, 2023. A meta-analysis has been reported in line with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) 2020 and assessing the methodological quality of systematic reviews (AMSTAR) guidelines. The odds ratio (OR) and weighted mean difference (MD) were applied for the comparison of dichotomous and continuous variables with 95% confidence intervals (CI). Results: Of the 374 retrieved abstracts, 29 underwent full-text review, and 8 studies were included in the final analysis, comprising a total cohort of 1007 cases of RAPN (453 SP-RAPN cases and 554 MP-RAPN cases). Compared to MP-RAPN, the SP-RAPN group had a significantly longer ischemia time (MD = 4.6 minutes, 95% CI 2.8 to 6.3, p < 0.001), less estimated blood loss (MD = -12.4 mL, 95% CI -24.6 to -0.3, p = 0.045), higher blood transfusion rate (OR = 2.97, 95% CI 1.33 to 6.65, p = 0.008), and higher postoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) at 6 months (MD = 4.9 mL/min, 95% CI 0.2 to 9.7, p = 0.04). There was no significant difference in other outcomes between the two approaches, including the intraoperative complication, overall postoperative complication, minor postoperative complication (Clavien-Dindo I - II), major postoperative complication (Clavien-Dindo III-V), conversion to radical nephrectomy, pain score on day #1, pain score on discharge, morphine milligram equivalent usage, hospital stay, positive surgical margins, and postoperative eGFR. Conclusions: SP-RAPN represents an emerging technique using a novel platform. Initial studies have demonstrated that SP-RAPN is a safe and feasible approach to performing partial nephrectomy, although with inferior outcomes for ischemia time and blood transfusion rates. Further studies will be necessary to define the best usage of SP-RAPN within the surgeon's armamentarium.

Abstract
Television game shows have proven to be a valuable resource for studying human behavior under conditions of high stress and high stakes. However, previous work has focused mostly on choices-ignoring much of the rich visual information that is available on screen. Here, we take a first step to extracting more of this information by investigating the response times and blinking of contestants in the BBC show Mastermind. In Mastermind, contestants answer rapid-fire quiz questions while a camera slowly zooms in on their faces. By labeling contestants' behavior and blinks from 25 episodes, we asked how accuracy, response times, and blinking varied over the course of the game. For accuracy and response times, we tested whether contestants responded more accurately and more slowly after an error-exhibiting the "post-error increase in accuracy" and "post-error slowing" which has been repeatedly observed in the lab. For blinking, we tested whether blink rates varied according to the cognitive demands of the game-decreasing during periods of cognitive load, such as when pondering a response, and increasing at event boundaries in the task, such as the start of a question. In contrast to the lab, evidence for post-error changes in accuracy and response time was weak, with only marginal effects observed. In line with the lab, blinking varied over the course of the game much as we predicted. Overall, our findings demonstrate the potential of extracting dynamic signals from game shows to study the psychophysiology of behavior in the real world.

Abstract
Bisphenol F (BPF) is a potential neurotoxicant used as a replacement for bisphenol A (BPA) in polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins. We investigated the neurodevelopmental impacts of BPF exposure using Drosophila melanogaster as a model. Our transcriptomic analysis indicated that developmental exposure to BPF caused the downregulation of neurodevelopmentally relevant genes, including those associated with synapse formation and neuronal projection. To investigate the functional outcome of BPF exposure, we evaluated neurodevelopmental impacts across two genetic strains of Drosophila- w1118 (control) and the Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) model-by examining both behavioral and neuronal phenotypes. We found that BPF exposure in w1118 Drosophila caused hypoactive larval locomotor activity, decreased time spent grooming by adults, reduced courtship activity, and increased the severity but not frequency of β-lobe midline crossing defects by axons in the mushroom body. In contrast, although BPF reduced peristaltic contractions in FXS larvae, it had no impact on other larval locomotor phenotypes, grooming activity, or courtship activity. Strikingly, BPF exposure reduced both the severity and frequency of β-lobe midline crossing defects in the mushroom body of FXS flies, a phenotype previously observed in FXS flies exposed to BPA. This data indicates that BPF can affect neurodevelopment and its impacts vary depending on genetic background. Further, BPF may elicit a gene-environment interaction with Drosophila fragile X messenger ribonucleoprotein 1 (dFmr1)-the ortholog of human FMR1, which causes fragile X syndrome and is the most common monogenetic cause of intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorder.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This review evaluated the existing literature exploring the effects of arts-inclusive programs (AIPs) on the mental health and wellbeing of young children. AIPs include activities, programs, or interventions containing creative arts. METHODS Literature searches were conducted across three databases (SCOPUS, psycINFO, and ERIC). The search was restricted to studies reporting outcomes of children 0-6 years. RESULTS Nine studies were included in the review (3,671 participants). Three key themes were identified: music-related (n = 4); artmaking (n = 3); and storytelling/drama (n = 2). All included studies reported positive outcomes on children's wellbeing following engagement in AIPs. DISCUSSION This review found emerging evidence demonstrating positive impacts of arts engagement on the wellbeing of children aged 0-6. However, most studies were low quality and used varying outcome measures. The review is one of the first to highlight the lack of high-quality studies on the relationship between AIPs and wellbeing in young children.

Abstract
Many tasks require precise synchronization with external sensory stimuli, such as driving a car. This study investigates whether combined visual-tactile information provides additional benefits to movement synchrony over separate visual and tactile stimuli and explores the relationship with the temporal binding window for multisensory integration. In Experiment 1, participants completed a sensorimotor synchronization task to examine movement variability and a simultaneity judgment task to measure the temporal binding window. Results showed similar synchronization variability between visual-tactile and tactile-only stimuli, but significantly lower than visual only. In Experiment 2, participants completed a visual-tactile sensorimotor synchronization task with cross-modal stimuli presented inside (stimulus onset asynchrony 80 ms) and outside (stimulus-onset asynchrony 400 ms) the temporal binding window to examine temporal accuracy of movement execution. Participants synchronized their movement with the first stimulus in the cross-modal pair, either the visual or tactile stimulus. Results showed significantly greater temporal accuracy when only one stimulus was presented inside the window and the second stimulus was outside the window than when both stimuli were presented inside the window, with movement execution being more accurate when attending to the tactile stimulus. Overall, these findings indicate there may be a modality-specific benefit to sensorimotor synchronization performance, such that tactile cues are weighted more strongly than visual information as tactile information is more intrinsically linked to motor timing than visual information. Further, our findings indicate that the visual-tactile temporal binding window is related to the temporal accuracy of movement execution.

Abstract
This systematic literature review aims to determine the optimal initial dose of naloxone for successful opioid overdose reversal across different administration routes. Types of participants included adults who have opioid overdoses and adults who are suspected to have opioid overdoses. Pregnant women, children, animals, and populations outside the US were excluded. The interventions included were intranasal (IN), intramuscular (IM), and intravenous (IV) naloxone administration. The data collected for this systematic review were studies from PubMed, CINAHL, PsyINFO, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials registers between January 2015 and July 2021. The risk of bias was assessed via the Review Manager application. Six studies met the inclusion criteria. A meaningful statistical analysis was unable to be conducted with such few studies. The studies reveal 2 mg IN as the most popular dosing for initial naloxone for successful opioid reversal. The most common route of naloxone administration for successful reversal could not be studied but most studies revealed successful initial naloxone dosing in IN equivalents. With minimal studies emerging from our review, further research is warranted in naloxone dosing for optimal opioid reversal in order to fully treat patients. Healthcare workers must be vigilant of potential withdrawal from high naloxone dosing as well as the inefficiency of lower naloxone dosing for adequate opioid overdose reversal in order to treat patients with opioid overdoses properly.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Health coaching services could help to reduce emergency healthcare utilisation for patients targeted proactively by a clinical prediction model (CPM) predicting patient likelihood of future hospitalisations. Such interventions are designed to empower patients to confidently manage their own health and effectively utilise wider resources. Using CPMs to identify patients, rather than prespecified criteria, accommodates for the dynamic hospital user population and for sufficient time to provide preventative support. However, it is unclear how this care model would negatively impact survival. METHODS Emergency Department (ED) attenders and hospital inpatients between 2015 and 2019 were automatically screened for their risk of hospitalisation within 6 months of discharge using a locally trained CPM on routine data. Those considered at risk and screened as suitable for the intervention were contacted for consent and randomised to one-to-one telephone health coaching for 4-6 months, led by registered health professionals, or routine care with no contact after randomisation. The intervention involved motivational guidance, support for self-care, health education, and coordination of social and medical services. Co-primary outcomes were emergency hospitalisation and ED attendances, which will be reported separately. Mortality at 24 months was a safety endpoint. RESULTS Analysis among 1688 consented participants (35% invitation rate from the CPM, median age 75 years, 52% female, 1139 intervention, 549 control) suggested no significant difference in overall mortality between treatment groups (HR (95% CI): 0.82 (0.62, 1.08), pr(HR<1=0.92), but did suggest a significantly lower mortality in men aged >75 years (HR (95% CI): 0.57 (0.37, 0.84), number needed to treat=8). Excluding one site unable to adopt a CPM indicated stronger impact for this patient subgroup (HR (95% CI): 0.45 (0.26, 0.76)). CONCLUSIONS Early mortality in men aged >75 years may be reduced by supporting individuals at risk of unplanned hospitalisation with a clear outreach, out-of-hospital nurse-led, telephone-based coaching care model.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Both pesticides and high magnetic fields are suspected to be childhood leukemia risk factors. Pesticides are utilized at commercial plant nurseries, which sometimes occupy the areas underneath high-voltage powerlines. OBJECTIVES To evaluate whether potential pesticide exposures (intended use, chemical class, active ingredient) utilized at plant nurseries act as an independent childhood leukemia risk factor or as a confounder for proximity to, or magnetic fields exposure from, high-voltage powerlines. METHODS We conducted a state-wide records-based case-control study for California with 5788 childhood leukemia cases and 5788 controls that examined specific pesticide use, magnetic field exposures and distances to both powerlines and plant nurseries. Exposure assessment incorporated geographic information systems, aerial satellite images, and other historical information. RESULTS Childhood leukemia risk was potentially elevated for several active pesticide ingredients: permethrin (odds ratio (OR) 1.49, 95% confidence interval (CI) (0.83-2.67), chlorpyrifos (OR 1.29, 95% CI 0.89-1.87), dimethoate (OR 1.79, 95% CI 0.85-3.76), mancozeb (OR 1.41, 95% CI 0.85-2.33), oxyfluorfen (OR 1.41, 95% CI 0.75-2.66), oryzalin (OR 1.60, 95% CI 0.97-2.63), and pendimethalin (OR 1.82, 95% CI 0.81-2.25). Rodenticide (OR 1.42, 95% CI 0.78-2.56) and molluscicide (OR 1.22, 95% CI 0.82-1.81) exposure also presented potentially elevated childhood leukemia risks. Childhood leukemia associations with calculated fields or powerline proximity did not materially change after adjusting for pesticide exposure. Childhood leukemia risks with powerline proximity remained similar when pesticide exposures were excluded. DISCUSSION Pesticide exposure may be an independent childhood leukemia risk factor. Childhood leukemia risks for powerline proximity and magnetic fields exposure were not explained by pesticide exposure.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study assessed the relationship between anti-thrombotics and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients with anti-phospholipid syndrome (APS). METHOD We included 13 947 subjects with APS from the National (Nationwide) Inpatient Sample (NIS) database for 2016-2018, and collected relevant covariates and demographic data using ICD-10 codes. Our two primary outcomes were MACE and death. We performed multivariate logistic regression analysis to assess the impact of various anti-thrombotic regimens on MACE/death in our primary cohort and high-risk subgroups. RESULTS Patients on anti-coagulants had significantly reduced odds of MACE [odds ratio (OR) 0.68, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.62-0.76, p < 0.001] as well as each of its subcomponents. Those not on any anti-coagulants had significantly increased odds of MACE (OR 1.47, 95% CI 1.24-1.72, p < 0.001). No significant association was found between anti-platelet use and the odds of MACE (p > 0.05). Patients on anti-coagulants were the only class that appeared to have a mortality benefit with reduced odds for death (OR 0.64, 95% CI 0.49-0.84, p = 0.001). In the subgroups at higher risk for MACE (those with atrial fibrillation and thrombocytopenia), full anti-coagulation therapy was also the only anti-thrombotic class that significantly affected the odds of MACE, with a protective effect on MACE, but had no mortality benefit. CONCLUSION Patients with APS are most likely to benefit from anti-coagulant therapy in reducing MACE. Furthermore, anti-platelets alone or in combination with anti-coagulants are probably not beneficial in MACE reduction and may even increase risk.

Abstract
Our ability to integrate multisensory information depends on processes occurring during the temporal binding window. There is limited research investigating the temporal binding window for visual-tactile integration and its relationship with autistic traits, sensory sensitivity, and unusual sensory experiences. We measured the temporal binding window for visual-tactile integration in 27 neurotypical participants who completed a simultaneity judgement task and three questionnaires: the Autism Quotient, the Glasgow Sensory Questionnaire, and the Multi-Modality Unusual Sensory Experiences Questionnaire. The average width of the visual-leading visual-tactile (VT) temporal binding window was 123 ms, significantly narrower than the tactile-leading visual-tactile (TV) window (193 ms). When comparing crossmodal (visual-tactile) stimuli with unimodal (visual-visual or tactile-tactile), the temporal binding window was significantly larger for crossmodal stimuli (VT: 123 ms; TV: 193 ms) than for unimodal pairs of stimuli (visual: 38 ms; tactile 42 ms). We did not find evidence to support a relationship between the size of the temporal binding window and autistic traits, sensory sensitivities, or unusual sensory perceptual experiences in this neurotypical population. Our results indicate that the leading sense presented in a multisensory pair influences the width of the temporal binding window. When tactile stimuli precede visual stimuli it may be difficult to determine the temporal boundaries of the stimuli, which leads to a delay in shifting attention from tactile to visual stimuli. This ambiguity in determining temporal boundaries of stimuli likely influences our ability to decide on whether stimuli are simultaneous or nonsimultaneous, which in turn leads to wider temporal binding windows.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE There is a lack of studies establishing the association between allergic rhinitis (AR) and despair, suicidal thinking, and suicide attempts in adolescents and children at a population level. This study aimed to investigate whether there are associations between allergic rhinitis and despair, suicidal thinking, and suicide attempts. PATIENTS AND METHODS The study utilized data from middle through high school adolescents from 2005-2021 who enrolled in the Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey (KYRBS; 1,067,169). We assessed despair, suicidal thinking, and suicide attempts in the context of both non-atopic and atopic AR. Multivariable analysis was used to determine the association of variables. RESULTS The prevalence of allergic rhinitis was 28.0%. 1,067,169 enrolled participants were included in the final analysis. There were 299,468 individuals with allergic rhinitis and 767,701 without. In the context of AR, adolescents were more likely to have despair [adjusted odds ratio (aOR), 1.16; 95% CI, 1.15-1.17], suicidal thoughts (aOR, 1.12; 95% CI, 1.11-1.13 for model 2), and suicide attempts (aOR, 1.13; 95% CI, 1.10-1.15 for model 2). Individuals with atopic AR were more likely in almost all measures to have despair, suicidal thinking, and suicide attempts than individuals with non-atopic AR. Females with AR were more likely to have suicide attempts and middle school students were more likely to have despair, suicidal thoughts, and suicide attempts. CONCLUSIONS The results of this study warrant future studies investigating why AR is so closely associated with despair, suicidal ideation, and suicide attempts, with the goal of establishing suicide prevention strategies as well as improving overall mental health for adolescents.

Abstract
Measurement has a special role in quantum theory1: by collapsing the wavefunction, it can enable phenomena such as teleportation2 and thereby alter the 'arrow of time' that constrains unitary evolution. When integrated in many-body dynamics, measurements can lead to emergent patterns of quantum information in space-time3-10 that go beyond the established paradigms for characterizing phases, either in or out of equilibrium11-13. For present-day noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) processors14, the experimental realization of such physics can be problematic because of hardware limitations and the stochastic nature of quantum measurement. Here we address these experimental challenges and study measurement-induced quantum information phases on up to 70 superconducting qubits. By leveraging the interchangeability of space and time, we use a duality mapping9,15-17 to avoid mid-circuit measurement and access different manifestations of the underlying phases, from entanglement scaling3,4 to measurement-induced teleportation18. We obtain finite-sized signatures of a phase transition with a decoding protocol that correlates the experimental measurement with classical simulation data. The phases display remarkably different sensitivity to noise, and we use this disparity to turn an inherent hardware limitation into a useful diagnostic. Our work demonstrates an approach to realizing measurement-induced physics at scales that are at the limits of current NISQ processors.

Abstract
The United Nations recently agreed to major expansions of global protected areas (PAs) to slow biodiversity declines1. However, although reserves often reduce habitat loss, their efficacy at preserving animal diversity and their influence on biodiversity in surrounding unprotected areas remain unclear2-5. Unregulated hunting can empty PAs of large animals6, illegal tree felling can degrade habitat quality7, and parks can simply displace disturbances such as logging and hunting to unprotected areas of the landscape8 (a phenomenon called leakage). Alternatively, well-functioning PAs could enhance animal diversity within reserves as well as in nearby unprotected sites9 (an effect called spillover). Here we test whether PAs across mega-diverse Southeast Asia contribute to vertebrate conservation inside and outside their boundaries. Reserves increased all facets of bird diversity. Large reserves were also associated with substantially enhanced mammal diversity in the adjacent unprotected landscape. Rather than PAs generating leakage that deteriorated ecological conditions elsewhere, our results are consistent with PAs inducing spillover that benefits biodiversity in surrounding areas. These findings support the United Nations goal of achieving 30% PA coverage by 2030 by demonstrating that PAs are associated with higher vertebrate diversity both inside their boundaries and in the broader landscape.

Abstract
The LUX-ZEPLIN experiment is a dark matter detector centered on a dual-phase xenon time projection chamber operating at the Sanford Underground Research Facility in Lead, South Dakota, USA. This Letter reports results from LUX-ZEPLIN's first search for weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) with an exposure of 60 live days using a fiducial mass of 5.5 t. A profile-likelihood ratio analysis shows the data to be consistent with a background-only hypothesis, setting new limits on spin-independent WIMP-nucleon, spin-dependent WIMP-neutron, and spin-dependent WIMP-proton cross sections for WIMP masses above 9 GeV/c^{2}. The most stringent limit is set for spin-independent scattering at 36 GeV/c^{2}, rejecting cross sections above 9.2×10^{-48} cm at the 90% confidence level.

Abstract
Indistinguishability of particles is a fundamental principle of quantum mechanics1. For all elementary and quasiparticles observed to date-including fermions, bosons and Abelian anyons-this principle guarantees that the braiding of identical particles leaves the system unchanged2,3. However, in two spatial dimensions, an intriguing possibility exists: braiding of non-Abelian anyons causes rotations in a space of topologically degenerate wavefunctions4-8. Hence, it can change the observables of the system without violating the principle of indistinguishability. Despite the well-developed mathematical description of non-Abelian anyons and numerous theoretical proposals9-22, the experimental observation of their exchange statistics has remained elusive for decades. Controllable many-body quantum states generated on quantum processors offer another path for exploring these fundamental phenomena. Whereas efforts on conventional solid-state platforms typically involve Hamiltonian dynamics of quasiparticles, superconducting quantum processors allow for directly manipulating the many-body wavefunction by means of unitary gates. Building on predictions that stabilizer codes can host projective non-Abelian Ising anyons9,10, we implement a generalized stabilizer code and unitary protocol23 to create and braid them. This allows us to experimentally verify the fusion rules of the anyons and braid them to realize their statistics. We then study the prospect of using the anyons for quantum computation and use braiding to create an entangled state of anyons encoding three logical qubits. Our work provides new insights about non-Abelian braiding and, through the future inclusion of error correction to achieve topological protection, could open a path towards fault-tolerant quantum computing.

Abstract
Abstract
Werner syndrome protein (WRN) is a RecQ-family helicase involved in the maintenance of genome integrity. Germline mutations in WRN cause premature aging and cancer predisposition. Analysis of systematic RNAi and CRISPR screening data has previously revealed that WRN is essential for the survival of cancer cell lines with high microsatellite instability (MSI-H). We have developed potent and selective small-molecule inhibitors of WRN helicase (WRNi) and showed that pharmacological inhibition of WRN causes lethality and induction of DNA damage markers selectively in MSI-H cancer cell lines compared to microsatellite-stable (MSS) cell lines. Screening of WRNi across a large panel of pooled, barcoded cell lines in the PRISM format revealed selective sensitivity in MSI-H cell lines and showed that pharmacological inhibition of WRN is highly correlated with genetic ablation of WRN across this panel, confirming selectivity for WRN. In vivo evaluation demonstrated robust and MSI-selective tumor regressions. These data provide pharmacological proof-of-concept for the WRN/MSI-H synthetic lethal relationship and support WRN inhibition as a novel therapeutic approach for the treatment of MSI-H cancers.

Abstract
AIMS As the US population continues to age, oncological strategies and outcomes for soft tissue sarcomas (STSs) should continue to be examined for varying age groups. The aim of this study was analyse and compare treatment strategies and oncological outcomes for octogenarian patients with STSs. MATERIALS AND METHODS Data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) national database were used. Varying treatment modalities were studied when utilised for specific tumour staging with respect to the eighth edition of the American Joint Committee on Cancer. RESULTS In total, 24 666 patients were included for analysis, where 3341 (14%) were 80 years old or older. The octogenarian group was diagnosed with more advanced disease (stages II-IV), relative to their younger counterparts (85% versus 75%, P < 0.001). However, a smaller proportion of the older patients underwent surgical resection (74% versus 86%, P < 0.001). Likewise, the octogenarians received less chemotherapy (4% versus 21%, P < 0.001) and radiotherapy (29% versus 42%, P = 0.010). Surgical resection and chemotherapy significantly improved overall survival for those older patients with stage II STS, whereas surgical resection and radiotherapy improved mortality in this cohort with both stage III and IV STS. Overall survival at 1 and 5 years of follow-up was lower within the octogenarian group compared with the younger group (1 year: 68% versus 88%, P < 0.001 and 5 years: 7% versus 58%, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Octogenarian patients, in most cases, are diagnosed with stage III or metastatic disease. Surgical resection of the primary tumour was beneficial in both age cohorts, with radiotherapy correlating to better overall survival when used in those patients with higher stage STS. Chemotherapy was associated with better mortality in the younger cohort with respect to tumour stage. The octogenarian overall survival at 1 and 5 years was lower than for younger patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Little information is available on the costs of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) in Vietnam or other low- and middle-income countries. Our study estimated the costs of LRTIs associated with RSV infection among children in southern Vietnam. METHODS We conducted a prospective cohort study evaluating household and societal costs associated with LRTIs stratified by RSV status and severity among children under 2 years old who sought care at a major pediatric referral hospital in southern Vietnam. Enrollment periods were September 2019-December 2019, October 2020-June 2021 and October 2021-December 2021. RSV status was confirmed by a validated RT-PCR assay. RSV rapid detection antigen (RDA) test performance was also evaluated. Data on resource utilization, direct medical and non-medical costs, and indirect costs were collected from billing records and supplemented by patient-level questionnaires. All costs are reported in 2022 US dollars. RESULTS 536 children were enrolled in the study, with a median age of 7 months (interquartile range [IQR] 3-12). This included 210 (39.2%) children from the outpatient department, 318 children (59.3%) from the inpatient respiratory department (RD), and 8 children (1.5%) from the intensive care unit (ICU). Nearly 20% (105/536) were RSV positive: 3.9 percent (21/536) from the outpatient department, 15.7% (84/536) from the RD, and none from the ICU. The median total cost associated with LRTI per patient was US$52 (IQR 32-86) for outpatients and US$184 (IQR 109-287) for RD inpatients. For RSV-associated LRTIs, the median total cost per infection episode per patient was US$52 (IQR 32-85) for outpatients and US$165 (IQR 95-249) for RD inpatients. Total out-of-pocket costs of one non-ICU admission of RSV-associated LRTI ranged from 32%-70% of the monthly minimum wage per person (US$160) in Ho Chi Minh City. The sensitivity and the specificity of RSV RDA test were 88.2% (95% CI 63.6-98.5%) and 100% (95% CI 93.3-100%), respectively. CONCLUSION These are the first data reporting the substantial economic burden of RSV-associated illness in young children in Vietnam. This study informs policymakers in planning health care resources and highlights the urgency of RSV disease prevention.

Abstract
Background Women and their families make decisions on accessing perinatal care based on their experiences in the health care system and on the experience of others around them. Receiving supportive maternity care which demonstrates respect is an essential part of quality care. Globally, and in low- and middle-income countries in particular, women report receiving mistreatment and a lack of respect during labour, childbirth and the early postnatal period. These experiences, if negative, may influence choices around place of birth, thus hindering the scale-up of facility-based births. Methods We conducted a focussed review of the literature between 2010 and 2019 to identify recent research addressing the assessment of women's experiences during childbirth in low- and middle-income country facilities. The World Health Organization (WHO) and White Ribbon Alliance themes and concepts of respectful maternity care served as a guide. Themes included disrespectful or abusive experiences such as verbal abuse or rudeness, abandonment, corruption, lack of privacy, failure to respect traditional practices, discrimination, and physical or sexual abuse. Experienced midwives in two low-resource countries contributed to the identification of appropriate indicators of respectful, non-abusive care, and eventual agreement as to which to include in an assessment tool monitoring women's experiences. Results Our review of the literature identified 18 publications meeting pre-established criteria. This resulted in the eventual selection of 33 indicators of respectful care sub-grouped under 9 domains: 1) communication/verbal interaction, 2) supportive care, 3) physical abuse, 4) non-consented care, 5) non-confidential care/lack of privacy, 6) stigma and discrimination, 7) abandonment/neglect, 8) detention/inability to pay, and 9) health facility conditions. We converted these indicators into questions to be asked by an interviewer during a short interview following discharge to assess the childbirth experience. Conclusions The Perinatal Experience Assessment Tool (PEAT) may be used to monitor or evaluate the experiences that women report after facility-based childbirth. It can be administered by trained, independent interviewers in the facility following discharge. The PEAT enables maternity leaders to assess the extent to which maternity services are conducted in a respectful, non-abusive manner and modify practices and procedures as feasible and appropriate.

Abstract
Background: Adverse incidents are well studied within acute care settings, less so within aged care homes. The aim of this scoping review was to define the types of adverse incidents studied in aged care homes and highlight strengths, gaps, and challenges of this research. Methods: An expanded definition of adverse incidents including physical, social, and environmental impacts was used in a scoping review based on the PRISMA Extension for Scoping Reviews Checklist. MEDLINE, CINAHL, and EBSCOhost were searched for English language, peer-reviewed studies conducted in aged care home settings between 2000 and 2020. Forty six articles across 12 countries were identified, charted, and analyzed using descriptive statistics and narrative summary methods. Results: Quantitative studies (n = 42, 91%) dominated adverse incidents literature. The majority of studies focused on physical injuries (n = 29, 63%), with fewer examining personal/interpersonal (15%) and environmental factors (22%). Many studies did not describe the country's aged care system (n = 26, 56%). Only five studies (11%) included residents' voices. Discussion: This review highlights a need for greater focus on resident voices, qualitative research, and interpersonal/environmental perspectives in adverse event research in aged care homes. Addressing these gaps, future research may contribute to better understanding of adverse incidents within this setting.

Abstract
Systems of correlated particles appear in many fields of modern science and represent some of the most intractable computational problems in nature. The computational challenge in these systems arises when interactions become comparable to other energy scales, which makes the state of each particle depend on all other particles1. The lack of general solutions for the three-body problem and acceptable theory for strongly correlated electrons shows that our understanding of correlated systems fades when the particle number or the interaction strength increases. One of the hallmarks of interacting systems is the formation of multiparticle bound states2-9. Here we develop a high-fidelity parameterizable fSim gate and implement the periodic quantum circuit of the spin-½ XXZ model in a ring of 24 superconducting qubits. We study the propagation of these excitations and observe their bound nature for up to five photons. We devise a phase-sensitive method for constructing the few-body spectrum of the bound states and extract their pseudo-charge by introducing a synthetic flux. By introducing interactions between the ring and additional qubits, we observe an unexpected resilience of the bound states to integrability breaking. This finding goes against the idea that bound states in non-integrable systems are unstable when their energies overlap with the continuum spectrum. Our work provides experimental evidence for bound states of interacting photons and discovers their stability beyond the integrability limit.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction/Objective
Identifying antibodies to red blood cell (RBC) antigens is one of transfusion medicine’s most critical and challenging issues. There are 354 RBC antigens recognized by the International Society of Blood Transfusion. Accurate identification of clinically significant alloantibodies is imperative for identifying and preventing hemolytic transfusion reactions and hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn. We compared the performance of the tube (polyethylene glycol–indirect antiglobulin test [PEG-IAT]) and solid-phase techniques for antibody identification.
Methods/Case Report
We performed a retrospective study on all antibody screens and identifications performed between 2007–2021 at Stanford Hospital. Over this period, 631,535 antibody screens were performed predominantly using an automated solid-phase technique. Subsequent antibody identification studies were performed using manual tube testing (PEG-IAT) and automated solid-phase techniques.
Results (if a Case Study enter NA)
Antibody screening resulted in 28,316 (4.5%) positive samples with at least one antibody. Antibody identification performed on both platforms identified 50 discordant [DMH1] samples. 8 anti-Jka, 2 anti-Jkb, 1 anti-S, and 1 anti-M were detected by automatic solid-phase technique but were not detected by PEG-IAT. 20 anti-E, 6 anti-K, 2 anti-Fya, 2 anti-c , 2 anti-C, 2 anti-Fyb, 1 anti-cE[DMH2] , 1 anti-e,1 anti-M, and 1 anti-S were detected by PEG-IAT but were negative by automated solid-phase technique. Anti-E had the least sensitivity (98.99%) in the automated solid-phase technique, while anti-Jkb had the least sensitivity (98.78%) in PEG-IAT.
Conclusion
This is the first robust 15-year study comparing methodologic sensitivity to detect clinically significant alloantibodies. The incidence of discordant results between the PEG-IAT and solid-phase technique was low. Among discordant samples, anti-Jka was commonly detected by solid-phase but not by PEG-IAT. In contrast, anti-E was commonly detected by PEG-IAT but not by the solid phase.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction/Objective
Patients with hematological cancer routinely receive red blood cell (RBC) transfusions in the outpatient infusion clinical setting as part of their clinical therapy. Typically, RBCs are delivered to the outpatient infusion clinic via the pneumatic tube (P-tube). However, due to the recent expansion of the hospital footprint and the new location of the transfusion services, the P-tube encountered challenges that impacted the reliability of the delivery of RBC, which can delay patient care and affect patient satisfaction. This study’s purpose is to evaluate the pre-and post-implementation of the Haemobank-20 (HB20), remote blood storage and dispensing device, by reviewing the turn-around time (TAT) and the number of orders fulfilled outside of the transfusion service.
Methods/Case Report
Blood products are stocked to the HB in the infusion center. An electronic transfusion schedule is reviewed the night before scheduled transfusions to ensure appropriate inventory. When a patient is ready for the transfusion, the clinical nurse will use the device to retrieve blood products for the patient from the HB20. The average timed delivery time from the transfusion service to the outpatient infusion center is about 11 minutes. Data was retrospectively gathered from a 10-month interval before and after HB20 implementation to evaluate the number of orders fulfilled by the HB20.
Results (if a Case Study enter NA)
The HB has helped maintain nurse-to-patient ratios, reduced traffic at the blood bank issue window, and significantly sped up the turnaround time of RBCs from 11 minutes to less than 60 seconds. Before HB implementation, staff at the blood bank received 2853 units of RBCs through the blood bank window. This has been decreased by 61.2 percent to 1136 RBCs.
Conclusion
Implementing the Haemobank-20 in the outpatient infusion center has successfully reduced the turnaround time and the workload within the Transfusion Services. The current results study demonstrate that the remote blood-release system is safe and helpful in improving the efficiency of blood issue for patients in remote outpatient locations.

Abstract
Understanding recharge in the Mekong Delta is critical for the delta's groundwater resources, and requires the investigation of recharge processes at the local scale. In this study of the north eastern area of the Mekong Delta, time-series of environmental tracer data (δ18O, δ2H, major ions and 3H) and markers of rural pollution (NH4 and NO3) were used to highlight localized recharge and impacts on groundwater quality. Results highlighted new hydrological insights into recharge processes, including that the Pleistocene aquifer receives recent recharge (< 60 years), predominantly during high rainfall months (> 100 mm/month). However, due to shallow clay layers there are significant spatial variations in these recharge processes, which were observed in the seasonal fluctuation of groundwater δ18O values in groundwater. Wet season δ18O changes ranged from below analytical uncertainty (≤ 0.10 ‰) to up to 0.56 ‰, and the calculated fraction of rainfall contribution to the aquifer is ≤5 % to 16 %. Rainfall recharge via the acrisol soils results in low groundwater EC (20-55 μS/cm), acidic groundwater (pH 3.6-5.6), and may also have resulted in the low groundwater NO3 concentrations (≤ 5.3 mg NO3/L) at many sites due to adsorption, therefore delaying not reducing NO3 contamination. Site specific variations in nitrogen processes includes increased NO3 (to 29.7 mg/L) from fertiliser transfers or nitrification, and increased NH4 (to 1.4 mg/L) likely due to the recharge of irrigation waters. Unlike other recharge areas across the northern Mekong Delta, this north-eastern region provides a groundwater resource unaffected by arsenic contamination. Therefore, these results should inform on priority areas for protection from further contamination by rural anthropogenic activities.

It remains unknown if concomitant left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) at the time of left ventricular assist device (LVAD) surgery can reduce ischemic cerebrovascular accidents.
Purpose
The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of LAAC at LVAD surgery on the incidence of ischemic cerebrovascular accidents.
Methods
Between January 2012 and November 2021, 310 patients underwent LVAD surgery with HeartMate II or III. Out of 310 patients, 98 patients (31.6%) underwent concomitant LAAC. The cohort was divided into two groups: patients with LAAC (Group A, n=98) and without LAAC (Group B, n=212). To minimize device bias, LVAD surgery with HeartWare HVAD device was excluded. The ischemic cerebrovascular accident was defined as ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke or transient ischemic attack. We reviewed early and long-term clinical outcomes. The incidence of ischemic cerebrovascular accidents was compared between two groups using the Kaplan-Meier method. We also investigated if LAAC was associated with ischemic cerebrovascular accidents by Cox proportional hazards analysis.
Results
There were no significant differences in baseline characteristics between two groups including age (Group A: 55.0±12.3 years old, Group B: 56.9±14.1 years old, p=0.26), preoperative CHADS2 score (Group A: 2.40±1.1, Group B: 2.58±1.1, p=0.19) and history of atrial fibrillation (Group A: 42.9%, Group B: 42.5%, p=0.95). In-hospital mortality was not significantly different between the two groups (Group A: 7.1%, Group B: 12.3%, p=0.16). In terms of postoperative complications, there were no significant differences between two groups in requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, re-exploration for bleeding and newly required hemodialysis. Median follow up period was 474 days. Thirty-five patients (11.2%) developed ischemic cerebrovascular accidents (5 patients in Group A and 30 patients in Group B). The rate of freedom from ischemic cerebrovascular accidents in Group A (94.1% at 500 days and 94.1% at 1500 days) was significantly higher than that in Group B (88.2% at 500 days and 77.4% at 1500 days; log rank=0.024). In a Cox proportional hazards regression analysis including LAAC, age, history of atrial fibrillation, diabetes mellitus and Heartmate 3 device implantation, LAAC was associated with reducing the incidence of ischemic cerebrovascular accidents (hazard ratio 0.37, 95% CI 0.13–0.89, p=0.02).
Conclusion
Concomitant LAAC at the time of LVAD surgery can reduce ischemic cerebrovascular accidents without increasing perioperative mortality and complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Close residential proximity to powerlines and high magnetic fields exposure may be associated with elevated childhood leukemia risks as reported by prior studies and pooled analyses. Magnetic fields exposure from high-voltage powerlines is associated with proximity to these powerlines and consequently with any factor varying with distance. Areas underneath powerlines in California may be sites for commercial plant nurseries that can use pesticides, a potential childhood leukemia risk factor. OBJECTIVES Assess if potential pesticide exposure from commercial plant nurseries is a confounder or interacts with proximity or magnetic fields exposure from high-voltage powerlines to increase childhood leukemia risk. METHODS A comprehensive childhood leukemia record-based case-control study with 5788 cases and 5788 controls (born and diagnosed in California, 1986-2008) was conducted. Pesticide, powerline, and magnetic field exposure assessment utilized models that incorporated geographical information systems, aerial satellite images, site visits and other historical information. RESULTS The relationship for calculated fields with childhood leukemia (odds ratio (OR) 1.51, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.70-3.23) slightly attenuated when controlling for nursery proximity (OR 1.43, 95% CI 0.65-3.16) or restricting analysis to subjects living far (>300 m) from nurseries (OR 1.43, 95% CI 0.79-2.60). A similar association pattern was observed between distance to high-voltage powerlines and childhood leukemia. The association between nursery proximity and childhood leukemia was unchanged or only slightly attenuated when controlling for calculated fields or powerline distance; ORs remained above 2 when excluding subjects with high calculated fields or close powerline proximity (OR 2.16, 95% CI 0.82-5.67 and OR 2.15, 95% CI 0.82-5.64, respectively). The observed relationships were robust to different time periods, reference categories, and cut points. DISCUSSION Close residential proximity to nurseries is suggested as an independent childhood leukemia risk factor. Our results do not support plant nurseries as an explanation for observed childhood leukemia risks for powerline proximity and magnetic fields exposure, although small numbers of subjects concurrently exposed to high magnetic fields, close powerline proximity and plant nurseries limited our ability to fully assess potential confounding.
