FORMULA
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n/2} n!^2/(2^(2*k)*k!^2*(n-2*k)!) * A343254(n,k).
EXAMPLE
a(3) = 48 is the number of ramified partitions (I,J) of size 3, in which each block of J contains the same number of up brackets and down brackets from I, i.e., each block of J contains either no brackets from I or one up and one down bracket from I.
