RESUMEN
Introduction: Studies on the use of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) for preventing venous thromboembolism (VTE) in hospitalized cancer patients are lacking. Therefore, we conducted a multicenter retrospective cohort study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of DOACs versus low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) for the primary prevention of VTE in hospitalized cancer patients. Methods: Clinical outcomes included thrombosis, VTE, other thrombosis, all bleeding, major bleeding, nonmajor bleeding, and all-cause death. A 1:1 cohort of rivaroxaban and LMWH patients was created by propensity score matching. Results: A total of 2,385 cancer patients were included in this study. During the 3-month follow-up period, 129 (5.4%) thrombosis events occurred, 63 (2.7%) of which were VTEs and 66 (2.8%) of which were other thrombosis events. All bleeding occurred in 163 (6.8%) patients, 68 (2.9%) had major bleeding, and 95 (4.0%) had nonmajor bleeding. All-cause deaths occurred in 113 (4.7%) patients. After adjusting for various confounders, the incidence of thrombosis and other thromboses was significantly lower in the rivaroxaban group than in the LMWH group [OR 0.543, 95% CI (0.343-0.859), p = 0.009; OR 0.461, 95% CI (0.241-0.883), p = 0.020]. There were no significant differences in incidence of VTE, total bleeding, major bleeding, nonmajor bleeding, or all-cause death. Conclusion: In oncology patients receiving thromboprophylaxis, rivaroxaban has a lower incidence of thrombosis and other thrombosis and a similar incidence of VTE as LMWH and does not increase the risk of bleeding. Rivaroxaban may be an attractive alternative to LMWH for preventing VTE in hospitalized cancer patients.
RESUMEN
Hip arthroscopy has become a predominant treatment for hip disorders such as femoroacetabular impingement syndrome and labral injury, and appropriate distraction for the hip joint is necessary for successful surgery. The traditional distraction method uses a perineal post but may cause complications such as perineum injury and nerve damage. For this reason, some surgeons have proposed postless distraction techniques, but they usually require additional equipment purchase and cost, which is not conducive to application. Therefore, we developed a post-free distraction technique without additional equipment. This method uses only surgical draw sheets, safety straps, a hip fracture table, and a hip distractor that are routinely provided in the operating room, and postless hip distraction can be achieved by using the Trendelenburg position, which is reliable, simple, and reproducible to be used in hip arthroscopy.
RESUMEN
κ-Carrageenan is a soluble dietary fiber widely used in meat products. Although its regulatory effect on glycolipid metabolism has been reported, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. The present study established a pork diet model for in vitro digestion to study how κ-carrageenan affected its digestive behavior and lipid bioavailability. The results revealed that κ-carrageenan addition to a pork-based high-fat diet reduced the rate of lipolysis and increased the number and size of lipid droplets in an in vitro digestion condition. However, κ-carrageenan did not inhibit lipolysis when lipids and κ-carrageenan were mixed directly or with the addition of pork protein. Furthermore, the pork protein in the diet significantly enhanced the inhibitory effect of κ-carrageenan on lipolysis with decreased proteolysis and raised hydrophobicity of protein hydrolysate. Our findings suggest that κ-carrageenan can inhibit dietary lipid bioavailability by interacting with pork protein in meat products or meat-based diets during digestion and indicate the positive role of carrageenan in the food industry to alleviate the excessive accumulation of lipids in the body.
RESUMEN
This study aimed to examine the impact of sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP) on the quality and digestive characteristics of PSE pork. The results showed a notable decrease in cooking loss of PSE pork from 29.11% to 25.67% with increasing STPP concentration (P < 0.05). Additionally, the gastric digestibility of PSE pork decreased significantly from 52.01% to 45.81% (P < 0.05). The particle size of digesta decreased significantly after gastrointestinal digestion (P < 0.05). These changes were primarily due to the enhanced cross-linking of proteins through ionic interactions, hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions, and resulted in the embedding of hydrophobic groups and endogenous fluorophores. Furthermore, denser network was formed. These findings give a new insight into considering the impact of STPP on meat nutrition when used to enhance texture and water holding capacity.
RESUMEN
To investigate the effects of heat treatment on the microstructure and digestive behaviors of pork, meat samples were subjected to a 100 °C water bath for 26 min. The inner, medium, and outer layers were assigned and analyzed according to the temperature gradient. Compared to the raw samples, significant changes were observed in the microscopic structure of pork. As the temperature increased, the myofibrillar structure of pork underwent increasingly severe damage and the moisture content decreased significantly (P < 0.05). Moreover, differential peptides were identified in digested products of the inner, middle, and outer layers of cooked pork, which are mainly derived from the structural proteins of pork. The outcomes of molecular docking indicated that a greater number of hydrogen bonds were formed between myosin and the digestive enzyme in the inner layer, rather than other parts, contributing to the transformation of digestive behaviors.
RESUMEN
Hemoglobin is an excellent source of iron supplements, and its hydrolyzate spontaneously binds iron during digestion and promotes iron absorption in vivo. However, the underlying mechanisms of what peptides bind and how they bind iron ions remain unclear. This study prepared the porcine hemoglobin hydrolyzate through enzymatic hydrolysis and acid treatment and investigated the mechanisms of hemoglobin hydrolyzate on iron absorption through the determination of iron levels in dietary intervention mice, iron binding site analyses, peptide digestion analyses, molecular simulation docking, and INT407 cell validation. The results showed that ingestion of the hemoglobin hydrolyzate diets increased iron levels in the blood of mice, accompanied by the upregulation of duodenal iron circulation-related genes such as ferritin, PCBP1, and HP. Carboxyl, imidazole groups, and aromatic amino acid residues were iron binding sites of hemoglobin hydrolyzate during digestion. VDEVGGEA and VDEVGGE were found to involve the spontaneous and efficient binding of hemoglobin hydrolyzate to iron ions in the intestinal cavity. In particular, the DEVGGE peptide was the typical sequence for hemoglobin hydrolytic peptides to exert iron binding activity.

In articular cartilage defect, particularly in arthroscopy, regenerative hydrogels are urgently needed. It should be able to firmly adhere to the cartilage tissue and maintain sufficient mechanical strength to withstand approximately 10 kPa of arthroscopic hydraulic flushing. In this study, we report a carbene-mediated ultra adhesive hybrid hydrogel paints for arthroscopic cartilage repair, which combined the photo initiation of double crosslinking system with the addition of diatomite, as a further reinforcing agent and biological inorganic substances. The double network consisting of ultraviolet initiated polymerization of hyaluronic acid methacrylate (HAMA) and carbene insertion chemistry of diazirine-grafted gelatin (GelDA) formed an ultra-strong adhesive hydrogel paint (H2G5DE). Diatomite helped the H2G5DE hydrogel paint firmly adhere to the cartilage defect, withstanding nearly 100 kPa of hydraulic pressure, almost 10 times that in clinical arthroscopy. Furthermore, the H2G5DE hydrogel supported cell growth, proliferation, and migration, thus successfully repairing cartilage defects. Overall, this study demonstrates a proof-of-concept of ultra-adhesive polysaccharide hydrogel paints, which can firmly adhere to the articular cartilage defects, can resist continuous hydraulic pressure, can promote effective cartilage regeneration, and is very suitable for minimally invasive arthroscopy.

In order to fully understand the nutritional heterogeneity of plant-based meat analogues and real meat, this review summarized their similarities and differences in terms of ingredients, nutrient contents, bioavailability and health impacts. Plant-based meat analogues have some similarities to real meat. However, plant-based meat analogues are lower in protein, cholesterol and VB12 but higher in dietary fiber, carbohydrates, sugar, salt and various food additives than real meat. Moreover, some nutrients in plant-based meat analogues, such as protein and iron, are less bioavailable. There is insufficient evidence that plant-based meat analogues are healthier, which may be related to the specific attributes of these products such as formulation and degree of processing. As things stand, it is necessary to provide comprehensive nutrition information on plant-based meat products so that consumers can make informed choices based on their nutritional needs.

PURPOSE: The retear rate of rotator cuff (RC) after surgery is high, and the rapid and functional enthesis regeneration remains a challenge. Whether acellular amniotic membrane (AAM) helps to promote the healing of tendon to bone and which treatment is better are both unclear. The study aims to investigate the effect of AAM on the healing of RC and the best treatment for RC repair. METHODS: Thirty-three Sprague Dawley rats underwent RC transection and repair using microsurgical techniques and were randomly divided into the suturing repair only (SRO) group (n = 11), the AAM overlaying (AOL) group (n = 11), and the AAM interposition (AIP) group (n = 11), respectively. Rats were sacrificed at 4 weeks, then examined by subsequent micro-CT, and evaluated by histologic and biomechanical tests. The statistical analyses of one-way ANOVA or Kruskal-Wallis test were performed using with SPSS 23.0. A p < 0.05 was considered a significant difference. RESULTS: AAM being intervened between tendon and bone (AIP group) or overlaid over tendon to bone junction (AOL group) in a rat model, promoted enthesis regeneration, increased new bone and cartilage generation, and improved collagen arrangement and biomechanical properties in comparison with suturing repair only (SRO group) (AOL vs. SRO, p < 0.001, p = 0.004, p = 0.003; AIP vs. SRO, p < 0.001, p < 0.001, p < 0.001). Compared with the AOL group, the AIP group had better results in micro-CT evaluation, histological score, and biomechanical testing (p = 0 0.039, p = 0.011, p = 0.003, respectively). CONCLUSION: In the RC repair model, AAM enhanced regeneration of the tendon to bone junction. This regeneration was more effective when the AAM was intervened at the tendon to bone interface than overlaid above the tendon to bone junction.
RESUMEN
SCOPE: Epidemiological studies have linked excessive red and processed meat intake to gut disorders. Under laboratory conditions, high heme content is considered the primary health risk factor for red meat. However, heme in meat is present in myoglobin, which is an indigestible protein, suggesting the different functions between myoglobin and heme. This study aims to explore how dietary myoglobin and heme affect gut health and microbiota differently. METHODS AND RESULTS: Histological and biochemical assessments as well as 16S rRNA sequencing are performed. Moderate myoglobin intake (equivalent to the recommended intake of 150 g meat per day for human) has beneficial effects on the duodenal barrier. However, a too high myoglobin diet (equivalent to intake of 3000 g meat per day for human) triggers duodenum injury and alters the microbial community. The hemin diet destroys intestinal tissue and ileal microbiota more significantly. The in vitro experiments further confirm that free heme exhibits high toxicity to beneficial gut bacteria while myoglobin promotes the growth and metabolism of Limosilactobacillus reuteri. CONCLUSION: Moderate intake of myoglobin or hemin is beneficial to intestinal health and microbiota, but too high amounts lead to tissue inflammation and injury in the small intestine by reshaping ileal microbiota.

Background: An accurate and objective criterion is needed to determine candidates who are suitable for hip arthroscopy in patients with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). Purpose: To determine whether improvement in pain after ultrasound (US)-guided intra-articular hip injection during standardized examinations can be used to predict the outcomes of hip arthroscopy in patients with FAI. Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods: We enrolled 119 patients with FAI who underwent US-guided intra-articular hip injection of local anesthesia during standardized examinations, carried out from May 2018 to February 2020 (within 2 weeks before hip arthroscopy). All patients had undergone a minimum of 6 months of nonoperative treatment without remission and had 2-year follow-up data. Pain visual analog scale (VAS) scores (0-10) were recorded for 7 different physical examination tests, and a total score (0 [best] to 70 [worst]) was obtained. In addition, International Hip Outcome Tool-12 (iHOT-12) and modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) scores were recorded before hip arthroscopy and at final follow-up. According to whether patients achieved the substantial clinical benefit (SCB) on the iHOT-12, they were divided into SCB and non-SCB groups, and the improvement in VAS pain scores from preinjection to postinjection (ΔVAS pain) was compared between the 2 groups. Logistic regression analysis was used to predict the achievement of SCB, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was used to estimate the accuracy of the prediction. Results: There was a significant pre- to postoperative increase in iHOT-12 (31.6 points; P < .001) and mHHS (20.0 points; P < .001) scores, and 84 (70.6%) patients achieved the SCB. The ΔVAS pain score was significantly greater in the SCB versus the non-SCB group (16.0 vs 7.0 points; respectively; P < .001). Logistic regression analysis demonstrated an optimal cutoff value of 8.5 points for ΔVAS pain (AUC, 0.772; 95% CI, 0.687-0.858). For patients with more severe symptoms (total preinjection VAS pain score of >10 out of 70), the accuracy of the prediction for ΔVAS pain had a better evaluation value (AUC, 0.834; 95% CI, 0.676-0.992). Conclusion: Improvement in pain after US-guided intra-articular hip injection predicted the outcomes of hip arthroscopy in patients with FAI in this study, especially for patients with more severe pain.
RESUMEN
Chinese sausage is a popular traditional Chinese meat product, but its high-fat content makes consumers hesitant. The purpose of this study is to compare the nutritional differences of Chinese sausages with different fermentation times (0, 10, 20, 30 d) and fat content (the initial content was 11.59% and 20.14%) during digestion. The comparison of digestion degree, protein structure, and peptide composition between different sausages were studied through in vitro simulated digestion. Chinese sausages with high-fat content had higher α-helix, ß-turn, and random coil, making them easier to digest. The fermentation process made this phenomenon more pronounced. The high-fat sausage fermented for 10 d showed the highest release of primary amino acids (about 9.5%), which was about 3.5% higher than the low-fat sausage under the same conditions. The results of peptidomics confirmed the relevant conclusions. After gastric digestion, the types of peptides in the digestive fluid of high-fat sausages were generally more than those in low-fat sausages, while after intestinal digestion, the opposite results were observed. The type of peptide reached its peak after fermentation for 20 d. These findings are of obvious significance for selecting the appropriate fermentation time and fat content of Chinese sausages.

Myoglobin (Mb) responsible for meat color is easily oxidized resulting in meat discoloration. Here, betanin red (BR), as a natural pigment and antioxidant, was chosen for enhancing redness and inhibiting oxidation. Multiple spectroscopies, isothermal titration calorimetry and molecular docking demonstrated that BR changed the microenvironment of heme group and amino acid residues of Mb, inhibited the oxidation of oxymyoglobin. The main interaction force was hydrogen bond and one variable binding site provided a continuous protective barrier to realize antioxidation. The combination of antioxidation with the inherent red color of BR offered dual color protection effect on processed beef with the addition amount of 0.2 % BR. BR treatment enhanced the redness by 25.59 â¼ 53.24 % and the sensory acceptance by 4.89 â¼ 14.24 %, and decreased the lipid oxidation by 0.58 â¼ 15.92 %. This study paves a theoretical basis for the application of BR and its structural analogues in meat color protection and other quality improvement.

OBJECTIVE: Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a disease that occurs frequently in young and middle-aged people. Because of its high disability rate, it affects the ability to work, so the early treatment of this disease is particularly important. This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the clinical efficacy of hip arthroscopy combined with multiple small-diameter fan-shaped low-speed drilling decompression (MSFLD) in treating early-mid stage ONFH (ARCO II-IIIA) compared to MSFLD, with at least 10-year follow-up. METHODS: A total of 234 patients who underwent hip arthroscopy and MSFLD for ONFH from 1998 to 2012 were analyzed retrospectively. This study enrolled patients between 18 and 60 years old with ARCO stage II-III A, diagnosed clinically and through imaging, in accordance with the 2021 guidelines for the treatment of ONFH. Clinical data, including demographics, operation mode, BMI, pre- and postoperative Harris score, and femoral head survival rate, were collected. Patients were divided into hip arthroscopy + MSFLD and MSFLD groups based on the operation mode. The t-test was used to compare the postoperative efficacy, Harris scores, and survival rates of the femoral head between the two groups. RESULTS: Among the 234 patients, 160 cases were followed up, including 92 cases in the hip arthroscopy + MSFLD group and 68 cases in MSFLD group, the follow-up rate was 68.38%, and the follow-up time was (10-22)14.11 ± 3.06 years. The Harris score (80.65 ± 6.29) in the hip arthroscopy + MSFLD group was significantly higher than that in the MSFLD group (p = 0.00), and the survival rate of femoral head (5-year survival rate was 84.78%, 10-year survival rate was 23.91%) was also higher than that in the MSFLD group (5-year survival rate was 63.24%, 10-year survival rate was 8.82%). The 5-year and 10-year survival rates of patients with ARCO II were 82.11% and 28.42%, which were better than 54% and 33% for ARCO III A. The femur head survival rate of alcoholic ONFH (5-year survival rate 61.54%, 10-year survival rate 9.23%) was significantly higher than that of other types of ONFH. CONCLUSION: Clinical follow-up of at least 10 years suggests that hip arthroscopy combined with MSFLD is an effective treatment for early-mid stage ONFH, with good clinical effect and high survival rate of femoral head.

OBJECTIVES: There is no clear consensus so far on which fixation method is most favorable for the tibial tunnel in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). The purpose of this paper is to investigate the outcome of RigidFix cross pins fixation in the tibial tunnel and to explore the advantages of RigidFix applied both in the femoral and tibial tunnel with hamstring tendon graft in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. METHODS: This retrospective study included 53 patients (male/female, 45/8) who underwent anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using autologous hamstring tendons between January 2013 and December 2017 at our institute. The participants in group A (n = 36) received anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with RigidFix cross pins fixation in both femoral and tibial tunnels, while those in group B (n = 17) with RigidFix cross pins fixation in the femoral tunnel and Interference screw fixation in the tibial tunnel. The visual analogue scale (VAS) score, International Knee Documentation Committee subjective knee form 2000 (IKDC2000) score, Lysholm knee scoring scale, Tegner activity score and the side-to-side difference were compared at 2 and 5 years postoperatively. The graft diameter, number of strands in graft and the average diameter of each strand were also compared between the two groups. The categorical parameters were analyzed by chi-square test and the continuous variables conforming to a normal distribution were analyzed by Student's t-test. RESULTS: At 2 years postoperation, the VAS score (1.61 ± 0.55), side-to-side difference (1.50 ± 0.58) in group A were significantly lower than that in group B, and the IKDC2000 score (88.81 ± 3.88), Tegner activity score (6.14 ± 0.60) in group A were significantly higher than that in group B. At 5 years postoperation, the VAS score (1.64 ± 0.68), side-to-side difference (1.73 ± 0.63) in group A were significantly lower than that in group B, and the IKDC2000 score (89.09 ± 3.85), Tegner activity score (6.58 ± 0.94) in group A were slso significantly higher than that in group B. There was statistical difference in the change of the side-to-side difference between the two groups (group A vs. B, 0.22 ± 0.08 vs. 0.34 ± 0.11, p < 0.001). There were also statistical differences in the graft diameter (group A vs. B, 7.83 ± 0.74 vs. 7.41 ± 0.51, p = 0,038), number of strands in graft (5.67 ± 0.72 vs. 4.00 ± 0.00, p < 0.001) and the average diameter of each strand (1.41 ± 0.22 vs. 1.85 ± 0.13, p < 0.001) between the two groups. CONCLUSION: RigidFix cross pins fixation in the tibial tunnel for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction can achieve better 5-year results when compared with the interference screw, and the hamstring tendon can be folded into a thicker graft when RigidFix cross pins were applied in both femoral and tibial tunnels.

This study focused on the development and evaluation of a stable emulsion system using rice starch, protein isolates, and bran oil as food ingredients. This was performed using a one-factor-at-a-time (OFAT) experimental strategy, which was subsequently refined using response surface modeling (RSM), and the emulsion was then characterized. The resulting quadratic polynomial model effectively captured all the responses, with regression coefficients exceeding 0.90. The emulsion activity index, emulsion stability index, and droplet size were 86.29 %, 93.44 %, and 100.59 nm, respectively. Turbidity was significantly influenced by particle size, with the double emulsion (sample B) exhibiting higher turbidity index (43,250.34 ± 0.046) than the reference sample (29,433.303 ± 0.018). The viscosity of the emulsion increased with the addition of the protein isolates. This inferred that a stable emulsion system derived from rice could serve a multifunctional purpose as carriers, fillers, and binders to enhance the physical, functional and sensory properties of foods.

Inconsistent efficiency of cell production caused by cellular quality variations has become a significant problem in the cultured meat industry. In our study, morphological information on passages 5-9 of porcine muscle stem cells (pMuSCs) from three lots was analyzed and used as input data in prediction models. Cell proliferation and differentiation potencies were measured by cell growth rate and average stained area of the myosin heavy chain. Analysis of PCA and heatmap showed that the morphological parameters could be used to discriminate the differences of passages and lots. Various morphological parameters were analyzed, which revealed that accumulating time-course information regarding morphological heterogeneity in cell populations is crucial to predicting the potencies. Based on the 36 and 60 h morphological profiles, the best proliferation potency prediction model (R2 = 0.95, RMSE = 1.1) and differentiation potency prediction model (R2 = 0.74, RMSE = 1.2) were explored. Correlation analysis demonstrated that morphological parameters selected in models are related to the quality of porcine muscle stem cells.

Eating behavior is critical for maintaining energy homeostasis. Previous studies have found that plant-based meat analogues increased diet intake in mice compared with animal meat under a free feeding mode, however the reasons were unclear. To explore the underlying mechanisms of plant-based meat analogues increasing diet intake, mice were fed animal or plant-based pork and beef analogue diets, respectively. Biochemical and histological analyses were performed to evaluate appetite-regulating hormones and gastrointestinal motility function. Peptiomics and GC-IMS were applied to identify key substances. We found that the intake of plant-based meat analogues significantly enhanced the gastrointestinal motility function of mice. The long-term intake (68 days) of plant-based meat analogues significantly increased the muscle layer thickness of the duodenum and jejunum of mice; the activity of gastrointestinal cells of Cajal were also promoted by upregulating the expression of c-kit related signals as compared to animal meat; plant-based meat analogues intake markedly enhanced the signal intensity of the intestinal neurotransmitter 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) by upregulating the expression of 5-HT synthase and receptors but downregulating its transporter and catabolic enzyme in the intestine. Moreover, plant-based meat analogues intake significantly increased levels of appetite-stimulating factors in the peripheral or hypothalamus but reduced levels of appetite-suppressing factors compared with animal meat. Specific volatile compounds were significantly associated with appetite regulating factors. Among them, 7 substances such as linalool have a potential promoting effect on food intake. Besides, different digestive peptides in gastrointestinal tract may affect eating behavior mainly through the neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction pathway, exerting hormone-like effects or influencing endocrine cell secretion. These findings preliminarily clarified the mechanism of plant-based meat analogues promoting diet intake and provided a theoretical basis for a reasonable diet.

Reliable monitoring the movement amplitude and dynamics during sports exercise is significant for improving training results and preventing training wound. Here, we present a printed perovskite-based photodetector for real-time and quantitative monitoring of sports motion. The ordered nucleation and growth of perovskite crystals are regulated by the 4-acetamidothiophenol (AMTP) at the interface, which promotes the size of perovskite crystals into the micrometer. Benefiting from the uniformity of the AMTP-regulated MAPbI3, the as-prepared photodetector gives great photocurrent response under indoor light or outdoor light. During the exercise, real-time monitoring sports motion is achieved through detecting the illumination changing of photodetectors attaching on the wrist and ankles. Moreover, twelve kinds of common sports can be quantitatively analyzed with the detection of illumination changing on the photodetector. Such photodetector provides an efficient measurement method of wearable electronics for sports monitoring.
RESUMEN
Since it may be employed to guide the production of high-quality plant protein as a partial substitute for animal protein using sono-physico-chemical effects, it is important to investigate the mixing of animal and plant protein in ultrasound (UID)-assisted processing systems. A study group of sono-physico-chemical processing with five distinct soy protein isolate (SPI)/ sarcoplasmic protein (SPN) ratios was developed in this work. The results showed that adding additional SPN to the mixed protein can increase its sono-physico-chemical impact, and this effect is greatest when the ratio of SPI to SPN is 1:3. The high SPN group's grafting rate rose from 39.13% to 55.26% in comparison to the high SPI content group. Quercetin (Que) may more readily modify SPN than SPI in the "dual protein" system used in this work, highlighting the critical function of plant protein in controlling the effects of UID-assisted processing in the "dual protein" system. Changes in apparent viscosity and microstructure are the primary parameters that affect the severity of sono-physico-chemical effects in SPI/SPN mixed protein systems, in addition to structural variables.
