Risk Factors for Developing Hidradenitis Suppurativa in Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A Retrospective Case–Control Study

Abstract Background Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), though risk factors remain to be determined. Aim To characterize HS among a cohort of IBD patients and identify risk factors for its development. Methods This was a retrospective case–control study at the ambulatory IBD centre at Mount Sinai Hospital from inception to May 2019. Patients with IBD who developed HS were included. Cases were matched 5:1 by age, gender (male versus female) and IBD type (ulcerative colitis [UC] or Crohn’s disease [CD]) to controls who had IBD without HS. Conditional logistic regression was used to calculate odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs). Results Twenty-nine cases of HS (19 CD and 10 UC) and 145 controls were included. Of the 29 patients with HS, 11 (37.9%) were male and 18 (62.1%) were female. The severity of HS was mild in 10 (34.5%), moderate in 16 (55.2%) and severe in 3 (10.3%) patients. Patients with HS and IBD were more likely to be active (OR 10.3, 95% CI 2.0 to 54.0, P = 0.006) or past (OR 8.4, 95% CI 2.7 to 25.8, P < 0.005) smokers. Patients with HS and IBD were also more likely to have active endoscopic disease (OR 3.8, 95% CI 1.2 to 12.2, P = 0.022). Furthermore, those with HS and CD were more likely to have active perianal disease (OR 21.1, 95% CI 6.2 to 71.9, P < 0.005). Conclusions Active IBD, perianal disease and smoking may be associated with HS in IBD. Larger studies are needed to better characterize this morbid condition.
Sustainable Management with Mycorrhizae and Phosphate Solubilizing Bacteria for Enhanced Phosphorus Uptake in Calcareous Soils

Low availability of phosphorus (P) in calcareous soils is a major problem for sustainable improvement in cereals crops yield. A higher amount of calcium in soils precipitates the P, thus making it immobile in soil. Inoculation of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and phosphate solubilizing bacteria (PSB) could be helpful in the sustainable management of immobile P in soil. However, their combined use in releasing P from rock phosphate (RP) in alkaline calcareous soils have been little investigated. In this regard, two successive field experiments were conducted to assess the interactive inoculation potential of AMF and PSB strain Bacillus sp. PIS7 with RP on the yield and P uptake of maize (Zea mays L.) and wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) crops in alkaline calcareous soil. The first field experiment was conducted in a complete randomized block design with 10 treatments and three replications by inoculating maize seeds with AMF and Bacillus sp. PIS7 inoculum alone and in combination with RP. Their performance was compared with single super phosphate (SSP) inorganic fertilizer. Afterward, the residual effects of inoculated AMF and Bacillus sp. PIS7 were investigated on wheat as a subsequent crop. Maize and wheat yield parameters, P uptake, AMF root colonization, and PSB population was measured. The results of both trials indicated the beneficial effects of AMF and Bacillus sp. PIS7 with RP in increasing the plants grain yield and P uptake until the second season after inoculation, as compared to controls. Likewise, maize and wheat roots colonization, PSB population density, and post-harvest soil properties were also improved by the combined inoculation of AMF and Bacillus sp. PIS7 with RP. It is concluded that PSB solubilizes the unavailable forms of P in combination with RP fertilizers in soil, and AMF ultimately transfers it to plants for growth promotion. Moreover, the combined inoculation of AMF and PSB with ground RP had more potential to improve maize-wheat yields and P uptake comparable to those obtained by using expensive phosphatic fertilizers in P deficient calcareous pH soils.
CT Imaging Features During Disease Progression of 2019 Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pneumonia

Objectives: To describe the characteristics of computed tomography (CT) in patients with 2019 novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pneumonia and their changes during disease progression. Patients and Methods: A total of 96 chest CT scans of 61 pneumonia patients associated with COVID-19 were reviewed to identify CT features associated with the time of symptom onset and the evolution of disease. Results: The initial CTs of 61 patients were obtained during 1 to 11 days after the onset. The main CT pattern of initial CT obtained during 1 - 3 days after the symptom onset was single (7/23, 35%) or multiple ground-glass opacity (GGO, 8/23, 35%). At 4 - 7 days after the symptom onset, the main imaging features were crazy paving GGO mixed with partial consolidation pattern (15/32, 47%). At 8 - 11 days after the symptom onset, the CT images showed consolidation pattern (3/6, 50%). A total of 35 follow up CTs were collected. The mean interval time between each follow up CT was 3 ± 2 days. The CT patterns also changed with the evolution of the disease: the features of GGO manifested at the early stage (1 - 3d). The crazy paving GGO pattern, consolidation pattern and mixed with partial consolidation pattern were found 4 to 14 days after the onset. In the absorption stage (15 - 24d), both density and extent of lesions were reduced. Conclusion: The CT imaging features are associated with the time of symptom onset and evolution of disease. Understanding the imaging characteristics of each stage is very helpful for understanding the development of disease.
Negation and Verb-initial Order in Old English Main Clauses

This study investigates two Old English (OE) constructions: “negative inversion” (a negated main clause with a clause-initial verb), and “narrative inversion” (a non-negated main clause with a clause-initial verb). The aim is to determine whether the two patterns may be treated as related “constructions” in Construction Grammar terms, and to identify the factors which promote the use of negative inversion in OE prose. The study shows that in both cases there is a strong interaction between syntax and lexicon: the choice between negative inversion and other patterns in negated main clauses as well as the difference between negative and narrative inversion is to a great extent lexically-based. The analysis also points to other variables underlying this variation such as text type and the use of direct speech. The corpus-based analysis provides a solid empirical basis for the claim that negative inversion and narrative inversion represent two separate constructions, functioning independently in the OE system.
Dynamic Response of a Single Pile Embedded in Sand Including the Effect of Resonance

In this paper, responses of a single pile embedded in sand soil (loose and dense) under dynamic loading (sinusoidal dynamic vibrations of 0.1 g to 0.5 g) have been investigated by two-dimensional analysis using the finite element method (FEM). Viscous (dashpot) boundaries have been used for taking the boundary effects of far-field into account. The applicability and accuracy of site responses of two-dimensional analysis due to the FEM modelling have been well verified with one-dimensional site responses. The results indicate that the relative density of sand (loose, dense) becomes prominent for the displacements of the pile, specifically under the frequency effects of resonance. While the pile in loose sand causes the displacements of 0.1 m to 0.5 m, the pile in dense sand leads to the displacements of 0.05 m to 0.25 m, proportionally with the dynamic loads from 0.1 g to 0.5 g. Moreover, the displacements reach their peak value at the frequency ratio of the resonance case. Viscous boundaries are found sufficient for modelling excessive displacements due to dynamic loading. However, the displacements reveal that high vibrations (> 0.1 g for loose sand, > 0.2 g for dense sand) influencing the pile deformations are critical for the issues of settlements. This is more significant for the resonance case in order for ensuring sufficient design. Consequently, the findings from the study are promising good contributions for pile design under the dynamic effect.
Do Unemployment Insurance Benefits Improve Match Quality? Evidence from Recent U.S. Recessions

We present new evidence on the impact of more generous unemployment insurance (UI) on workers’ ability to find jobs better suited to their skills. Using Longitudinal Employer-Household Dynamics data, we find the UI extensions introduced in the U.S. improved the quality of worker-job matches. Using Current Population Survey data, we also find that longer UI benefit durations decrease the mismatch between workers’ educational attainments and the educational requirements of jobs. We find bigger effects of UI on match quality for those more likely to be liquidity constrained—women, non-whites and less-educated workers—,suggesting UI extensions improve the functioning of the labor market.
Pursuing PhD by publication in geography: a collaborative autoethnography of two African doctoral researchers

ABSTRACT Several scholars have, over the years, written about their experiences of the pathway of PhD by publication (PBP). However, little is known about why African doctoral students pursue PBP and their experiences . In this article, we adopt collaborative autoethnography to document our experiences and motivation for choosing the PBP pathway. Based on our experiences, the choice of PBP is primarily influenced by the candidate's previous research experience and the requirements/practices of the university. The common motivation among African doctoral students is the quest to acquire the requisite research skills and training in journal article publishing and the determination to catch-up in the knowledge economy through the production of high-quality scientific publication. Everyday experiences of PBP are shaped by university expectations, scholarly writing skills, institutional, supervisory and external support systems, research training and resilience. This study concludes by highlighting the positive implications of PBP for educational and socio-economic development in Africa and the world, more generally. It is recommended that journals develop scholar development programs to enable their editors to provide individualized support to PhD students, especially those pursuing PBP.
The role of ports in the dynamics of urban hierarchies

ABSTRACT This study investigates the role of ports in the dynamics of the city size distribution in a system of cities based on their geospatial proximity. We used an interdisciplinary method based on the complex systems approach to explore the participation of ports in the urban hierarchy. We used the case of the Mexican urban system and its national port system, data from 1900 to 2010. We tested the assumption of universality in spatial systems applying an inferential data analysis classifying probability distribution functions associated with the city size measure. We identified cities associated with their closest port across the rank size distribution and mapped their spatial location. Findings suggested that top hierarchical cities have been associated with three port sites: Veracruz, Tuxpan, and Lazaro Cardenas. They have consolidated their importance even though the entrance of new ports in the urban system. However, these new ports have affected the large-scale behavior of the urban system. The dynamics of statistical distributions showed a trend from skewed to non-skewed distributions indicating that the system remains complex, but it has changed its large-scale behavior, from higher influence of large to medium city sizes.
Supplemental But Not Photoperiodic Lighting Increased Seedling Quality and Reduced Production Time of Annual Bedding Plants

In northern latitudes, the photosynthetic daily light integral can be less than 5 mol·m–2·d–1, necessitating the use of supplemental lighting (SL) to reduce bedding plant seedling production time and increase quality. Our objectives were 1) to quantify seedling quality and production time under continuous 16-h or instantaneous threshold SL, continuous low-intensity photoperiodic lighting (PL) for 16 or 24 hours with and without far-red light, or no electric lighting; and 2) to determine whether the described lighting treatments during propagation impact finished plant quality or flowering. Seeds of begonia (Begonia ×semperflorens) ‘Bada Bing Scarlet’, gerbera (Gerbera jamesonii) ‘Jaguar Deep Orange’, impatiens (Impatiens walleriana) ‘Accent Premium Salmon’, petunia (Petunia ×hybrida) ‘Ramblin Peach Glo’, and tuberous begonia (Begonia ×tuberosa) ‘Nonstop Rose Petticoat’ were sown in 128-cell trays and grown under either SL, PL, or no electric lighting (control). SL treatments consisted of high-intensity light-emitting diode (LED) or high-pressure sodium (HPS) lamps providing a photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD) of either 70 µmol·m–2·s–1 on continuously for 16 h·d–1 or 90 µmol·m–2·s–1 based on an instantaneous threshold. PL treatments consisted of low-intensity red:white (R:W) or red:white:far-red (R:W:FR) lamps for 16 h·d–1 or R:W:FR lamps for 24 h·d–1. Seedlings of gerbera, impatiens, and petunia from each treatment were subsequently transplanted and finished in a common greenhouse environment. The highest quality seedlings were grown under SL compared with PL or control conditions. When comparing SL treatments, seedlings produced under HPS or LED SL using an instantaneous threshold were of equal or greater quality compared with those under continuous SL with a 16-h photoperiod. Although the greater leaf area and internode elongation under PL may give growers the perception that seedling production time is reduced, PL did not increase biomass accumulation and seedling quality. Petunia seedlings propagated under HPS lamps using an instantaneous threshold flowered 4 to 11 days earlier compared with the other SL treatments. In addition, petunia propagated under R:W:FR PL for 16 h·d–1 flowered 5 to 7 days earlier compared with LED SL and the other PL treatments.
Response of Maize ( Zea mays L.) Hybrids to Diurnal Variation of Vapor Pressure Deficit (VPD) and Progressive Soil Moisture Depletion

This study investigated the transpiration (TR) response to (i) diurnal changes of vapor pressure deficit (VPD) and (ii) soil dry down in four maize hybrids contrasting for yield performance under drought stress in the field. These four hybrids included a popular local variety P3K and a commercial check SC303 that were found to be drought susceptible. The experiment was carried out in pots at early vegetative stage (8-leaf stage). Results showed an increase of TR with increasing VPD but with significant variations between the hybrids tested. The two susceptible hybrids P3K and SC303 had higher TR over nearly the whole range of VPD values than the two other hybrids, with the largest variation recorded at VPD values above 6 kPa. Regarding the TR response to soil moisture depletion, normalized TR (NTR) of all genotypes reduced with soil moisture depletion for all treatments. In addition, NTR showed a significant reduction for plants that were irrigated at 3 days intervals before the experiment as compared to those irrigated daily. There was a trend of higher water extraction, as evaluated with the fraction of transpirable soil water (FTSW) threshold, in the tolerant hybrids relative to the susceptible ones for the two irrigation treatments. In addition, prior exposure to water deficit tends to lower the FTSW threshold which leads to increased water extraction capacity at lower soil moisture level. These results demonstrate that control of TR under high VPD conditions coupled with high water extraction capacity from progressively drying soil can contribute to drought tolerance in maize hybrids.
Talking Democracy at the United Nations

Legitimate rule beyond the state, it appears, can no longer be discussed without reference to the notion of democracy. This is particularly evident in the reform debates countries engage in at the United Nations. Based on a novel data set, which covers a decade of democratic discourse by 159 states about two major UN bodies, the Security Council and the General Assembly, this book contributes to a better understanding of the democratic narrative, the patterns it takes, and the drivers behind it. Its insights contribute to research on the social legitimacy of international organisations, the contested meaning of norms, and global democracy. At a time when ideological competition is picking up steam, this book attests to the power of the democratic idea.
Marsh bird occupancy along the shoreline‐to‐forest gradient as marshes migrate from rising sea level

One mechanism by which coastal marshes may persist as sea-level rises is to expand landward into existing forest, a process known as marsh migration. Though recent studies highlight the importance of marsh migration to the conservation of birds associated with coastal marshes, marsh bird responses to this transition from forest to marsh are poorly understood. To address this need, we conducted surveys of five focal marsh bird taxa at 92 points distributed across the gradient from the shoreline to the marsh–forest interface in one of the most vulnerable regions to sea-level rise in North America where marshes have been migrating landward for at least several decades. Given this landward movement of the forest–marsh interface, we modeled focal taxa occurrence as a function of distance-to-forest, thereby assuming that marshes closer to the forest were newer than those closer to the shoreline. In addition, we investigated the effects of vegetation conditions and fire frequency. Occupancy probability of marsh birds decreased closer to the forest–marsh interface where woody vegetation was taller and herbaceous cover was dominated by Cladium jamaicense, suggesting migrated marsh may provide limited habitat for these bird species, at least in the short term. Though parameter estimate uncertainty for black rail (Laterallus jamaicensis) was high due to a limited number of detections, occupancy of this species may increase with the conditions associated with migrated marsh, specifically greater C. jamaicense dominance and decreasing distance-to-forest. Clapper/king rail (Rallus crepitans/elegans) occupancy was greater at sites that had burned more frequently over the past decade, and occupancy of all focal taxa was greater in areas with vegetation conditions consistent with the effects of fire in coastal marshes, including reduced herbaceous vegetation density and shorter woody vegetation. As such, prescribed fire may serve as an effective method of facilitating marsh migration and increasing the quality and quantity of habitat for coastal marsh birds as sea-level rises.
Millennials’ technology readiness and self-efficacy in online classes

ABSTRACT Myths of the digital native persist, leaving questions about how well millennial learners engage with online classes. While smart devices are ubiquitous, some students are anxious about online learning. Educators risk investments in online classes leaving less technologically ready learners behind. We examine how differences in technology readiness relate to learner self-efficacy, engagement, and achievement in an online class. We implement the established technology readiness index to examine if learners who are less comfortable with technology are disadvantaged. We sampled 102 learners in an online business negotiation class. Findings show learners are self-confident in completing technological tasks no matter their level of technology readiness or their lack of online class experience. Learners who are less comfortable with technology, however, report lower self-efficacy in general social interactions and in academic-specific social interactions with classmates, respectively. Online educators should reassure less technology-ready students to increase comfort in online social channels.
Systematic and Biogeographic overview of Lamiaceae in Turkey

Lamiaceae is the third largest family based on the taxon number and fourth largest family based on the species number in Turkey. The family has 48 genera and 782 taxa (603 species, 179 subspecies and varieties), 346 taxa (271 species, 75 subspecies and varieties) of which are endemic (ca. 44%) (data updated 1 th February 2017) in the country. There are also 23 hybrid species, 19 of which are endemic (82%). The results proven that Turkey is one of the centers of diversity for Lamiaceae in the Old World. In addition, Turkey has about 10% of all Lamiaceae members in the World. The largest five genera in the country based on the taxon number are Stachys (118 taxa), Salvia (107 taxa), Sideritis (54 taxa), Phlomis (53 taxa) and Teucrium (49 taxa). According to taxon number, five genera with the highest endemism ratio are Dorystaechas (1 taxon, 100%), Lophantus (1 taxon, 100%), Sideritis (54 taxa, 74%), Drymosiphon (9 taxa, 67%), and Marrubium (27 taxa, 63%). There are two monotypic genera in Turkey as Dorystaechas and Pentapleura . Turkey sits on the junction of three phytogeographic regions with highly diverse climate and the other ecologic features. Phytogeographic distribution of Turkish Lamiaceae taxa are 293 taxa in the Mediterranean (37.4%), 267 taxa in the Irano-Turanian (36.7%), 90 taxa in the Euro-Siberian (Circumboreal) phytogeographic region, and 112 taxa in Unknown or Multiregional (14.3%) phytogeographical elements. In the Mediterranean phytogeographic region 61% of the taxa, in the Irano-Turanian phytogeographic region 50% of the taxa, and in the Euro-Siberian (Circumboreal) phytogeographic region 13% of the taxa are endemic. Some endemic taxa are widely distributed in the country, so their phytogeograhic elements are not clearly defined, the endemism ratio of these taxa are 13%. In time, species of Lamiaceae genera are migrated from one phytogeographic region to another one and specialised in specific habitats in the country. Salvia, Stachys, Sideritis, Phlomis, Teucrium, Thymus, Nepeta, Scutellaria, Origanum and Marrubium are species rich genera in Turkey. Particulary, most of Old Wold species of Salvia , Stachys, Origanum, Marrubium, Ballota, Lamium and Drymosiphon naturally grow in Turkey. These genera have also quite high endemism ratio with Phlomis, Scutellaria, Thymus, Nepeta and Satureja . Due to high taxon number and endemism ratio, different habitats, climates and soil types, high altitutinal range and diverse pollinators, it is clear that Turkey is a very good example for evolution and speciation of Lamiaceae family in the Old World.
