    Abstract We present AnisoGNNs -- graph neural networks (GNNs) that generalize predictions of anisotropic properties of polycrystals in arbitrary testing directions without the need in excessive training data. To this end, we develop GNNs with a physics-inspired combination of node attributes and aggregation function. We demonstrate the excellent generalization capabilities of AnisoGNNs in predicting anisotropic elastic and inelastic properties of two alloys.

    Abstract Background: Acquired prolapse of the cerebellar tonsils in spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) patients is rare. This study aims to evaluate neuroimaging changes of acquired prolapse of the cerebellar tonsils below the foramen magnum in SIH patients due to spontaneous spinal cerebrospinal fluid leakage, which was treated by targeted epidural blood patches (EBP).
    Methods: We retrospectively reviewed clinical and neuroimaging characteristics of 5 cases of SIH with acquired prolapse of the cerebellar tonsils that received targeted EBP in our institution from January 2013 to December 2016.
    Results: Of these SIH patients, all of them suffered from an orthostatic headache. Initial cranial MRI demonstrated descent of the cerebellar tonsils ≥5 mm. Intrathecal gadolinium-enhanced spinal MR myelography and/or spinal MR hydrography were performed to evaluate the level of spinal cerebrospinal fluid leakage. Symptoms were alleviated in all 5 patients after two (
    Conclusion: Acquired tonsillar herniation can occur in patients with SIH and spinal cerebrospinal fluid leakage. Symptoms of these patients may be resolved and radiologic findings may be reversed after EBP treatment.

    Abstract Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients often presents diffuse lesions, with extensive calcification, and it is time-consuming to measure coronary artery calcium score (CACS).
    Objectives: To explore the predictive ability of deep learning (DL)-based CACS for obstructive CAD and hemodynamically significant CAD in T2DM.
    Methods: 469 T2DM patients suspected of CAD who accepted CACS scan and coronary CT angiography between January 2013 and December 2020 were enrolled. Obstructive CAD was defined as diameter stenosis ≥50%. Hemodynamically significant CAD was defined as CT-derived fractional flow reserve ≤0.8. CACS was calculated with a fully automated method based on DL algorithm. Logistic regression was applied to determine the independent predictors. The predictive performance was evaluated with area under receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC).
    Results: DL-CACS (adjusted odds ratio (OR): 1.005; 95% CI: 1.003-1.006;
    Conclusions: DL-CACS, with less time-consuming, can accurately and effectively predict obstructive CAD and hemodynamically significant CAD in T2DM.

    Abstract Because the flow data generated by industrial control networks have the characteristics of large quantity, large feature dimension, and obvious class imbalance, the traditional industrial control intrusion detection model has difficulty accurately identifying attack flow. To solve the above problems, a hierarchical interval-based belief rule base (HIBRB) model has been proposed in this paper, which can improve the detection rate of attack flow while maintaining high accuracy. First, interval-based BRB (IBRB) model is used as the basic model to solve the problem that too many antecedent attributes will lead to combinatorial explosion. By changing reference points into reference intervals and conjunctive to disjunctive in IF-THEN rules, the number of rules can be effectively reduced, and expert knowledge can be involved. Second, to solve the problem of class imbalance, a two-layer BRB structure is used for modeling. In the first layer, a main model (main-IBRB) is used for multiclassification to determine the possible class of samples. In the second layer, the sub model (sub-IBRB) is used for binary classification to obtain the final class. To improve the performance of the whole model, XGBoost is used to select the optimal feature subset for main-IBRB and each sub-IBRB according to the different classification targets. Through two-layer BRB structure and XGBoost feature selection, HIBRB can effectively alleviate the class imbalance problem and improve the detection rate of attack flow. Finally, the intrusion detection model is established by using the data set of the natural gas pipeline control system, and the validity of this model is verified.

    Abstract This paper takes 101 enterprises in high-tech industries as research samples to investigate the impact of a general manager’s responsible leadership on enterprise ESG performance. The results showed that (1) a general manager’s responsible leadership can promote enterprise ESG performance, and (2) organizational resilience has a mediating effect between general manager responsible leadership and enterprise ESG performance. These conclusions were still robust after a series of validity tests. Further analysis showed that a monetary compensation incentive for senior executives positively regulates the indirect effect of a general manager’s responsible leadership on enterprise ESG performance through organizational resilience; that is, when monetary incentive for senior executives is high, the positive impact of a general manager’s responsible leadership on enterprise ESG performance through organizational resilience is strong. However, the influence of executive equity-based compensation incentive on their relationship is not obvious. The conclusions of this study provide theoretical and practical enlightenment for improving enterprise ESG performance, enrich the research on the intermediary mechanism of organizational resilience on responsible leadership and enterprise ESG performance, and provide intervention and decision-making basis for enterprises, regulators, and other relevant departments. The limitations of this study pave the way for further research directions, incorporating equity-based compensation incentive on promoting responsible leadership to achieve high ESG performance, and allowing for a better evaluation assessment.

    Abstract The use of flexible, built-in, ultra-high-frequency (UHF) antenna sensors is an effective method to solve the weak high-frequency electromagnetic wave signal sensing of partial discharge (PD) inside gas-insulated switchgears (GISs), and the compatibility of flexible UHF antenna sensor substrate materials and SF6/N2 mixtures is the key to the realization of a flexible UHF antenna sensor inside a GIS. Based on this, this paper builds an experimental platform for the compatibility of a 30% SF6/70% N2 gas mixture and a PD flexible UHF antenna sensor substrate and conducts compatibility experiments between the 30% SF6/70% N2 gas mixture and PD flexible UHF antenna sensor substrate under different temperatures in combination with the actual operating temperature range of the GIS. In this article, a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer, scanning electron microscope and X-ray photoelectron spectrometer were used to test and analyze the gas composition, the surface morphology and the elemental change in the PD flexible UHF antenna sensor substrate, respectively. PET material will be slightly oxidized under the environment of a 30% SF6/70% N2 gas mixture at 110 °C, PI material will generate metal fluoride under the environment of a 30% SF6/70% N2 gas mixture and only PDMS material will remain stable under the environment of a 30% SF6/70% N2 gas mixture; therefore, it is appropriate to use PDMS substrate in the development of flexible UHF antenna sensors.

    Abstract Background: The aim of the study was to identify case-mix adjusters for the Chinese version of the Child Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (Child-HCAHPS) and assess the impact of case-mix adjustment on patient experience measures in China.
    Methods: This study analyzed data collected from six National Regional Center for Pediatric across China retrospectively. Participants were children aged ≤17 years and their guardians who completed the survey. The Chinese Child-HCAHPS was used to measure pediatric inpatient care experience. Candidate case-mix adjusters were assessed using a summary measure of explanatory power. Changes in scores and rankings of the six centers were quantified to assess the impact of adjustment.
    Results: A total of 2708 respondents completed the survey from January to March 2021, with a response rate of 7-15%. The child's global health status and the respondent being the child's mother were identified as case-mix adjusters, and case-mix adjustment models for 18 patient experience items were constructed. Kendall's τ correlation of hospital rankings before and after adjustment ranged from 0.73 to 1.00.
    Conclusions: Although the impact of case-mix adjustment may appear modest in our sample, it demonstrated the feasibility, necessity, and methodology for further development of case-mix adjustment models in pediatric healthcare facilities in China.
    Impact: Case-mix adjustment models adjust for factors that are unamendable by healthcare providers that may affect patient experience ratings, thereby improving the comparability of institutional-level ratings. Standardized case-mix adjustment protocols for quality measures need to be modified in different settings. This is the first study to identify adjustment variables and the possible impact of case-mix adjustment on pediatric inpatients' experience measures in a Chinese population. This study provided evidence on the feasibility and necessity for further development of case-mix adjustment models for pediatric healthcare facilities in China.
