Published: December 2024

We show that the Veneziano amplitude of string theory is the unique solution to an analytically solvable bootstrap problem. Uniqueness follows from two assumptions: faster than power-law falloff in high-energy scattering and the existence of some infinite sequence in momentum transfer at which higher-spin exchanges cancel. The string amplitude-including the mass spectrum-is an output of this bootstrap. If the amplitude merely vanishes at high energies, the solution is a three-parameter family containing the Veneziano, Coon, and hypergeometric amplitudes, and more.

Introduction This secondary analysis of quality control data assessed principal components of personality dysfunction and their relationship to mentalizing in a sample of treatment-seeking women with severe personality disorders. Methods The Schedule for Nonadaptive and Adaptive Personality (SNAP) and the Movie for the Assessment of Social Cognition (MASC) were administered to 37 females in routine quality assessments of a specialized residential treatment program. Principal component analysis (PCA) of SNAP scores was used to determine dimensions of personality most significantly contributing to overall maladaptive personality functioning.

Background: The therapeutic efficacy and prognosis of various tumors can be assessed using the systemic immune-inflammatory index (SII) and prognostic nutritional index (PNI). Despite their potential, no studies have investigated the prognostic value of the combined SII-PNI score for outcomes in patients with extensive small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) treated with chemotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs).

Materials And Methods: Our study retrospectively examined 213 ES-SCLC patients treated with chemotherapy and ICIs across two institutions.

Nurses who co-create care with clients experience lower levels of burnout through the perception of fewer emotional demands: an observational study.

Background: Clients are especially satisfied about treatment of nurses providing person-centered care. Such care benefits from the co-creation of care, in which nurses and clients together shape the care process by investing in effective communication and supportive nurse-client relationships. Co-creation of care can especially benefit longitudinal collaboration between clients and their nurses in long-term care settings.

Robustness assessment of regressions using cluster analysis typologies: a bootstrap procedure with application in state sequence analysis.

Background: In standard Sequence Analysis, similar trajectories are clustered together to create a typology of trajectories, which is then often used to evaluate the association between sequence patterns and covariates inside regression models. The sampling uncertainty, which affects both the derivation of the typology and the associated regressions, is typically ignored in this analysis, an oversight that may lead to wrong statistical conclusions. We propose utilising sampling variation to derive new estimates that further inform on the association of interest.
