Development of a Predictive Model for Cardiac Dysfunction in MIS-C Patients Utilizing Laboratory Biomarkers
This model identified widely available biomarkers to successfully predict systolic dysfunction in MIS-C patients. Those at high risk of systolic dysfunction had higher peak laboratory values for C-reactive protein, fibrinogen, and procalcitonin early on. A regularized logistic regression model was validated to provide excellent discrimination for LVSD
Subregular linguistics
Subregular linguistics is a fairly new approach that seeks a deeper understanding of language by combining the rigor of formal grammar with the empirical sophistication of theoretical linguistics. The approach started in phonology but has since branched out to morphology and even syntax, unearthing unexpected parallels between these three domains of language. In this paper, I argue based on these results that subregular linguistics has a lot to o…
Diving deeper into subregular syntax
Cyclic scope and processing difficulty in a Minimalist parser
A common view in the theoretical literature is that quantifier raising (QR) is a clause-bounded operation. But in a paper published in Glossa, Wurmbrand (2018) argues that (i) QR is not clause-bounded, and the apparent clause-boundedness of QR is due to the human parser’s difficulty in processing extraclausal QR; and (ii) the relative difficulty of extraclausal QR depends on the size of the embedded clause from which QR takes place. She then prop…
The power of locality domains in phonology
Domains play an integral role in linguistic theories. This paper combines locality domains with current models of the computational complexity of phonology. The first result is that if a specific formalism – strictly piecewise grammars – is supplemented with a mechanism to enforce first-order definable domain restrictions, its power increases so much that it subsumes almost the full hierarchy of subregular languages. However, if domain restrictio…

Buddhist Responses to the 3.11 Disasters in Japan
When I visited Ishinomaki nearly three years after the 11 March 2011 triple disasters—earthquake, tsunami, and nuclear meltdown—former residents of the city and parishioners of Saikōji, a local Jōdo (Pure Land) Buddhist temple, were still living in temporary housing. Saikōji also suffered tsunami damage. Large parts of the temple graveyard had been destroyed by bulldozers of the Japan Self-Defense Forces, who came to search for bodies in the debr…
Research Note
This research note discusses the challenges of post-disaster filmmaking and introduces two short films about religious responses to the 11 March 2011 earthquake, tsunami, and nuclear disaster in Japan that were produced to accompany this special issue. The first clip presents perspectives on the cherry blossom festival at Jōnenji, a Pure Land Buddhist temple that functioned as an evacuation center in the tsunami-stricken city of Kesennuma. Volunt…
