10-Year patient satisfaction compared between computer-assisted navigation and conventional techniques in minimally invasive surgery total knee arthroplasty by Saradej Khuangsirikul, Kreangsak Lekkreusuwan, Thanainit Chotanaphuti

“…Most surgeons assessed the surgical outcomes with regard to knee alignment and range of motion, but these factors may not reflect subjective variables, namely patient satisfaction.Purpose: To compare satisfaction and functional outcomes between two technical procedures in MIS total knee arthroplasty, namely computer-assisted MIS and conventional MIS procedure, operated on a sample group of patients after 10 years.Methods: Seventy cases of posterior-stabilized total knee prostheses were implanted using a computer-assisted system and were compared to 74 cases of matched total knee prostheses of the same implant using conventional technique. …”

Research on provincial implied carbon emissions in China under the shared responsibility driven by new quality productivity: A new approach by Yingying Du, Haibin Liu, Hui Huang, Jiazeng Zhang, Yajie Wang

“…Key findings include: (1) The CVAT method's determination of responsibility sharing coefficients aligns with fairness and efficiency principles, resulting in a more equitable distribution of implied carbon emission responsibilities conducive to achieving fair carbon emission reduction. (2) Over the research period, national implied carbon emissions exhibited an upward trajectory, increasing from 3.305 billion tons in 2002 to 9.726 billion tons in 2017, with Shandong, Hebei, and Jiangsu provinces ranking among the top emitters in China. (3) Eastern coastal and western regions function as net carbon transfer out regions, while the central, northeast, and southwest regions act as net carbon transfer in regions. (4) The implied carbon transfer network demonstrated relative stability throughout the study period, with Shandong, Hebei, Jiangsu, and Inner Mongolia emerging as major carbon transfer provinces. …”

Hyporheic Oxygen Dynamics in the East River, Colorado: Insights From an In‐Situ, High Frequency Time Series During Two Distinct Flow Seasons by Michael N. Gooseff, Ruby N. Ghosh, Erin Cantrell, M. Evan Matusz, Charles McIntire, Vivek Philip

“…Abstract Dissolved oxygen (DO) is critical for aquatic ecosystems, however, few studies have focused on the long‐term DO dynamics in hyporheic zones, which are a function of both transport (hydrologic exchange between river and hyporheic zone) and uptake by biogeochemical reactions or respiration. …”

Identification of an additive interaction using parameter regularization and model selection in epidemiology by Chanchan Hu, Zhifeng Lin, Zhijian Hu, Shaowei Lin

“…We present two pathways to achieve this end: one is to complete the constraint by adding a regular penalty term to the model likelihood function; the other is to use model selection. Result Using simulated and real data, our proposed methods effectively identified additive interactions and proved to be applicable to real-world data. …”

Impact of asymmetric L4–L5 facet joint degeneration on lumbar spine biomechanics using a finite element approach by Jun Sung Park, Tae Sik Goh, Jung Sub Lee, Chiseung Lee

“…Degenerative changes in these joints can lead to reduced spinal function and pain. Specifically, asymmetric degeneration occurs when one side deteriorates more rapidly due to alignment issues, subsequently impacting adjacent structures. …”
