Currently, most work on comparing differences between simplified and traditional Chinese only focuses on the character or lexical level, without taking the global differences into consideration. In order to solve this problem, this paper proposes to use complex network analysis of word co-occurrence networks, which have been successfully applied to the language analysis research and can tackle global characters and explore the differences between simplified and traditional Chinese. Specially, we first constructed a word co-occurrence network for simplified and traditional Chinese using selected news corpora. Then, the complex network analysis methods were performed, including network statistics analysis, kernel lexicon comparison, and motif analysis, to gain a global understanding of these networks. After that, the networks were compared based on the properties obtained. Through comparison, we can obtain three interesting results first, the co-occurrence networks of simplified Chinese and traditional Chinese are both small-world and scale-free networks. However, given the same corpus size, the co-occurrence networks of traditional Chinese tend to have more nodes, which may be due to a large number of one-to-many character/word mappings from simplified Chinese to traditional Chinese; second, since traditional Chinese retains more ancient Chinese words and uses fewer weak verbs, the traditional Chinese kernel lexicons have more entries than the simplified Chinese kernel lexicons; third, motif analysis shows that there is no difference between the simplified Chinese network and the corresponding traditional Chinese network, which means that simplified and traditional Chinese are semantically consistent. The COVID-19 pandemic caused by the SARS-CoV‑2 virus has strongly affected the visceral and thoracic surgery department in southern Vorarlberg in Austria, which comprises two locations the focus hospital in Feldkirch and the regional hospital in Bludenz. The complete lockdown lasted 6weeks (from March 16to April 26, 2020), after which the hospital in Bludenz started day surgery again and in Feldkirch the capacity was slowly increased. We compared how oncological and acute operations differed during those 6weeks to the 6weeks before lockdown. Our findings show aclear increase in emergency operations for acute cholecystitis (+133%) and acute appendicitis (+157%). While the acute operations increased, some oncological operations decreased, which was especially apparent for oncological colorectal resections (-66%) and oncological lung resections (-43%). This survey shows that due to the increased catchment area, more acute operations were performed and also demonstrated that we were confronted with more advanced stages of those diseases. Furthermore, cancer operations which rely on short-term peripheral diagnostics decreased considerably.

Catheter ablation for ventricular tachycardia (VT) in patients with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) has significantly evolved over the past decade. However, different ablation strategies showed inconsistency in acute and long-term outcomes. We searched the databases of Medline, Embase and Cochrane Library through October 17, 2019 for studies describing the clinical outcomes of VT ablation in ARVC. Data including VT recurrence, all-cause mortality, acute procedural efficacy and major procedural complications were extracted. A meta-analysis with trial sequential analysis was further performed in comparative studies of endo-epicardial versus endocardial-only ablation. A total of 24 studies with 717 participants were e
