A synthetic Mirnov diagnostic has been developed to investigate the capabilities and limitations of an arrangement of Mirnov coils in terms of a mode analysis. Eight test cases have been developed, with different coil arrangements and magnetic field configurations. Three of those cases are experimental configurations of the stellarator Wendelstein 7-X. It is observed that, for a high triangularity of the flux surfaces, the arrangement of the coils plays a significant role in the exact determination of the poloidal mode number. For the mode analysis, torus and magnetic coordinates have been used. In most cases, the reconstruction of the poloidal mode number of a prescribed mode was found to be more accurate in magnetic coordinates. As an application, the signal of an Alfvén eigenmode, which has been calculated with a three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamics code, is compared to experimental observations at Wendelstein 7-X. For the chosen example, the calculated and measured mode spectra agree very well and additional information on the toroidal mode number and localization of the mode has been inferred.

A significant proportion of patients who have recovered from COVID-19 suffer from persistent symptoms, referred to as "post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC)". Abnormal brain intrinsic activity has been observed in PASC patients, but the patterns of frequency-dependent intrinsic activity in the PASC and non-PASC (recovered COVID-19 patients without persistent symptoms) groups and their association with neuropsychiatric sequelae remain unclear in PASC. Twenty-nine PASC patients, 27 non-PASC subjects, and 31 healthy controls (HCs) were recruited.

Purpose Of Review: Although the management of nausea and vomiting induced by cancer treatments has evolved, several questions remain unanswered.
Recent Findings: New antiemetics have been developed these last decades with therapeutic indications to be defined according to the anticancer regimen and partly as a consequence of the assessment of individual patient risk factors. Guidelines still seem to have a low level of knowledge and compliance, with a role for scientific societies in term of dissemination and education.

Background: IgE-mediated food allergy is accompanied by mucosal mast cell (MMC) hyperplasia in the intestinal mucosa. Intestinal MMC numbers correlate with the severity of food allergy symptoms. However, the mechanisms by which MMCs proliferate excessively are poorly understood.

Background: The number of infants born via cesarean section (CS) is increasing globally due to medical and cultural reasons.
Objectives: This study aimed to determine the effect of the mode of delivery on early lung aeration in newborns using electrical impedance tomography (EIT).
Material And Methods: The case-control study was conducted from December 2020 to April 2021.

Background: Stigma against persons living with substance use disorders (PLSUD) fosters social and health inequities.
Aim: We aimed to map different populations targeted by antistigma interventions, analyze specific characteristics of these interventions, and identify and categorize the theoretical frameworks used in these interventions.
Methods: We examined randomized controlled trials and quasi or pre-experimental studies targeting stigma against PLSUD.
