    Abstract Using data for a majority of the world's countries over a 25- to 55-year period, this paper analyzes cross-cultural heterogeneity in women's civil liberties independently of and relative to men. Civil liberties include the freedoms of discussion and movement, freedom from forced labor, property rights, and access to justice. Regression analyses show that women's civil liberties vary considerably across cultural zones defined by the intersection of religious traditions and geographical regions. These patterns persist even when controlling for factors such as democracy and development. Accounting for women's political representation and educational attainment often reduces but never eliminates these cross-cultural differences; the same is true for embeddedness in world society. In contrast, women's labor force participation all but erases negative cultural effects, and instrumental-variables analyses suggest that this factor is a causal determinant of women's civil liberties. Efforts to improve women's rights should therefore focus on overcoming cultural barriers to their workforce participation.

    Abstract A deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a multifactorial condition characterized by a thrombus or blood clot developing in the deep veins of the upper or lower extremities. The presentation of DVT is characterized by unilateral peripheral edema and signs of inflammation in the affected extremity. The treatment of DVT is complex and case-dependent; however, most individuals are managed with oral anticoagulation therapy, while complex cases can be treated with advanced interventions. This report discusses a singular case of an atypical or complex DVT in a middle-aged woman with prior venous thromboembolic events undergoing a thrombectomy using an Inari FlowTriever system.

    Abstract We consider the nonparametric regression and the classification problems for $\psi$-weakly dependent processes. This weak dependence structure is more general than conditions such as, mixing, association, $\ldots$. A penalized estimation method for sparse deep neural networks is performed. In both nonparametric regression and binary classification problems, we establish oracle inequalities for the excess risk of the sparse-penalized deep neural networks estimators. Convergence rates of the excess risk of these estimators are also derived. The simulation results displayed show that, the proposed estimators overall work well than the non penalized estimators.

    Abstract This paper carries out sparse-penalized deep neural networks predictors for learning weakly dependent processes, with a broad class of loss functions. We deal with a general framework that includes, regression estimation, classification, times series prediction, $\cdots$ The $\psi$-weak dependence structure is considered, and for the specific case of bounded observations, $\theta_\infty$-coefficients are also used. In this case of $\theta_\infty$-weakly dependent, a non asymptotic generalization bound within the class of deep neural networks predictors is provided. For learning both $\psi$ and $\theta_\infty$-weakly dependent processes, oracle inequalities for the excess risk of the sparse-penalized deep neural networks estimators are established. When the target function is sufficiently smooth, the convergence rate of these excess risk is close to $\mathcal{O}(n^{-1/3})$. Some simulation results are provided, and application to the forecast of the particulate matter in the Vit\'{o}ria metropolitan area is also considered.

    Abstract To support the implementation of environmental flows (e-flows), we piloted a three-dimensional digital modeling approach to monitor the changes in river ecosystems. A high-resolution 3D model of study sites in the Crocodile River, South Africa, was constructed and used to test its utility and value to monitor changes in river ecosystem structure over time. The initial demonstration of the approach shows highly detailed 3D models of nine tracks across the study sites. The output represents the velocity-depth and bathymetry variability of each site in 3D. The dataset successfully demonstrated the potential value of adopting the approach for e-flow implementation to monitor the habitat dynamism to support the timely management of river health. In the next phase, this assessment will integrate the 3D modeling approach into a hydrodynamic modeling framework to investigate dynamic relationships between flow-ecosystem and ecosystem services.

    Abstract Is wealthier always healthier, or are the health effects of economic growth trivial, irregular, or perhaps even detrimental? Using data for up to 134 developing countries between 1970 and 2015, this article revisits the effect of economic growth on health, focusing on infant mortality, life expectancy, and caloric consumption. The analysis enlarges the geographical and temporal scope of previous samples and attempts to isolate the causal effects of growth using two-stage models with instrumental variables. Results show that five-year economic growth rates improve all three health outcomes, even after controlling for other important determinants and accounting for the possibility of reverse causality. Growth effects are largest for infant mortality rates. Nevertheless, there are diminishing returns to economic growth as a function of economic development: as countries become more affluent, the benefits of growth for health diminish.

    Abstract Background: Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) can be passed onto future generations through complex biopsychosocial mechanisms. However, social support in caregivers who have experienced adversity may lead to adaptation. Most research on the intergenerational consequences of ACEs has focused on mental health in subsequent generations, while overlooking family functioning as an outcome.
    Objective: This pre-registered study addresses this gap by examining a hypothesized association between caregiver ACEs and caregiver-perceived family functioning, and the moderating role of social support. It was expected that high levels of social support would attenuate the association between caregiver ACEs and family functioning, controlling for contemporaneous stressors in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.
    Participants and setting: Data come from a multinational non-clinical sample (n = 310).
    Methods: Caregivers completed self-report measures to assess caregiver ACEs, social support, COVID stressors, and family dysfunction.
    Results: Multiple regression analyses revealed that the ACEs-by-social support interaction was not significant. Exploratory analyses revealed a significant three-way interaction between COVID stressors, ACEs, and social support (b = 0.001, SE < 0.001, p = .008). For lower adversity, social support protected against the association between COVID stressors and family dysfunction; however, for higher adversity, social support was only protective when COVID stressors were low.
    Conclusions: Social support is protective against concurrent stressors during the pandemic in relation to family functioning, though this buffering depends on historical levels of adversity. Findings are interpreted through a trauma-informed lens and provide support for family-focused interventions and policies to mitigate the impact of stress on caregivers with high ACEs.
