الحماية المعزِّزة للممتلكات الثقافية (دراسة تحليلية لنصوص البرتوكول الثاني لاتفاقية لاهاي لسنة 1954 بشأن حماية الممتلكات الثقافية أثناء النزاع المسلح)
Authors: محفوظ علي تواتي
Published: December 2024

تعد الممتلكات الثقافية إرثاً إنسانياً مشتركاً للبشرية، تعكس الهوية الدينية والاجتماعية للعديد من الشعوب، وبالتالي فإن توفير الحماية لهذه الممتلكات أثناء النزاعات المسلحة يعد أمراً بالغ الأهمية، ومن هذا المنطلق وقعت اتفاقية لاهاي لسنة 1954م بشأن حماية الممتلكات الثقافية أثناء النزاعات المسلحة، والمتضمنة قواعد حماية الممتلكات الثقافية، وقد قسمت هذه الحماية إلى حماية عامة "وقائية"، تلتزم بموجبها الدول الأطراف باتخاذ إجراءات فعلية زمن السلم من اجل المحافظة على الممتلكات الثقافية، وحماية خاصة تتعلق بحصانة الممتلكات الثقافية ضد العدوان، وقد قيدت هذه الأخيرة بعدة شروط تلتزم بها الدولة صاحبة الممتلكات الثقافية، إضافة إلى الدول الأخرى عند حصول أي نزاع مسلح، إلا أن نظام الحماية الخاصة لم يرق إلى المطلوب في شأن توفير الحماية لهذا الإرث البشري الهام، عليه فقد استحدث نظام حماية آخر "الحماية المعززة" جاءت به نصوص البرتوكول الثاني الملحق باتفاقية لاهاي الموقع في 26 مارس 1999م؛ وذلك لمجاراة التطور في قواعد القانون الدولي وهو ما اكدت عليه ديباجة هذا البرتوكول التي جاء فيها (وتضع في اعتبارها أن القواعد الناظمة لحماية الممتلكات الثقافية في حالة نزاع مسلح ينبغي أن تجاري ما يجد من تطورات في القانون الدولي).

ولعل الجديد الذي جاء به هذا البرتوكول يتمثل في إقراره أيضاً لمبدأ المسؤولية الجنائية والولاية القضائية على انتهاك الأحكام المتعلقة بنظام الحماية المعززة الوارد في برتوكول سنة 1999م أو الأحكام المتعلقة بنظامي الحماية العامة والخاصة الواردين في اتفاقية لاهاي سنة 1954م. وتبرز أهمية هذين المبدأين في أن الممتلكات الثقافية كونها تمثل جزءا من الأعيان المدنية أيضا، فإنها إضافة إلى هذه القواعد الخاصة بحمايتها أثناء النزاع، فإنها تخضع أيضاً لحماية عامة مثلها مثل بقية الأعيان المدنية الأخرى الوارد النص على حمايتها زمن النزاعات المسلحة وفقاً لاتفاقية جنيف لسنة 1949م وبروتكوليها الإضافيين، إضافة إلى ما تضمنه نظام روما الأساسي من إقرار للمسؤولية الجنائية عن جرائم الحرب. خاصة أن المادة الثامنة منها عدت الهجوم على الممتلكات والمباني الثقافية والتاريخية من ضمن هذه الجرائم.

عليه فان دراستنا لموضوع الحماية المعززة تضمنت تحليلاً لنصوص البرتوكول الثاني لاتفاقية لاهاي بشأن حماية الممتلكات الثقافية أثناء النزاعات المسلحة، مع محاولة لتقييم نظام الحماية المعززة، ودراسة ما يمكن تسميته بالتكامل بينه وبين النصوص الدولية العامة الأخرى والمتعلقة بحماية الأعيان المدنية؛ وذلك للإجابة عن تساؤل مهم حول مدى قدرة هذه النصوص وكفايتها في المحافظة على الممتلكات الثقافية ومنع مرتكبي الجرائم ضدها من الإفلات.

Avances en la genética del ganado bovino y las tendencias de investigación actual
Authors: Flores-Mancheno César Iván
Published: December 2024

This article reviews advances in bovine genetics and their implications for livestock sustainability. Given the need to improve productivity and face the challenges of climate change, advanced techniques such as next-generation sequencing and gene editing (CRISPR) have been applied. For the analysis, an exhaustive review of recent literature in indexed databases was carried out, highlighting studies that implement genomic sequencing to identify polymorphisms and desirable traits in cattle. The results show that genomic selection has optimized feed efficiency and disease resistance, contributing to the reduction of the environmental footprint. Improved climatic adaptability of cattle is also observed through the selection of genetic variants associated with heat tolerance and pathogen resistance. However, ethical and regulatory challenges remain, as well as the need to maintain genetic diversity to ensure long-term viability. In conclusion, these advances promote more productive and sustainable livestock, although a balanced approach that considers the conservation of genetic variability is required.
La reforestación para mitigar el cambio climático a través de la evidencia científica reciente
Authors: Alcázar-Espinoza Javier Alexander
Published: December 2024

La reforestación se ha propuesto como una de las soluciones naturales más efectivas para mitigar el cambio climático, debido a su capacidad para capturar dióxido de carbono (CO₂) y restaurar ecosistemas degradados. Este estudio tiene como objetivo analizar críticamente la literatura científica sobre la reforestación, con el fin de identificar los factores que afectan su viabilidad y efectividad en diferentes contextos geográficos y socioeconómicos. La metodología se basa en una revisión bibliográfica exploratoria de estudios recientes, abarcando diversas fuentes científicas. Los resultados destacan que la reforestación tiene un impacto significativo en la captura de carbono, pero su éxito depende de la selección adecuada de especies, la restauración del suelo y la participación comunitaria. Sin embargo, se identifican desafíos importantes, como la falta de financiamiento sostenible, la vulnerabilidad a plagas debido a la baja diversidad genética y la necesidad de políticas públicas que apoyen a largo plazo estos proyectos. Se concluye que, aunque la reforestación tiene el potencial de ser una herramienta clave contra el cambio climático, su éxito a largo plazo depende de una planificación cuidadosa, la integración de tecnologías emergentes y una cooperación internacional efectiva para garantizar tanto beneficios climáticos como socioeconómicos.

This article provides an alternative proof for the Frullani integral formula using an approach different from the existing one. This alternative proof gave us a novel method for evaluating certain improper integrals of Frullani type. Moreover, the alternative proof also obtained an exciting result relating the Frullani integral to a specific class of improper double integrals—the alternative proof started by stating and proving lemmas used as stepping stones to obtain the main proof. An essential condition was also imposed to obtain the desired result.
Vécu sexuel et vécu de l’orientation sexuelle des personnes musulmanes issues de la diversité sexuelle au Québec
Authors: Alameddine Reem
Published: December 2024

En raison de leur orientation sexuelle et de leur adhésion à la religion musulmane, les personnes musulmanes issues de la diversité sexuelle au Québec sont confrontées à divers défis intersectionnels liés aux représentations négatives et antagonistes qui sont véhiculées à leur endroit. En effet, du fait de la méconnaissance et de l’incompréhension de leurs réalités multiples, ces personnes sont souvent perçues comme marginales et allant à l’encontre des valeurs de la société québécoise, de même qu’allant à l’encontre de certains préceptes issus de la religion musulmane en matière de sexualité. Ces stéréotypes véhiculés sur les personnes musulmanes engendrent des conséquences dans plusieurs sphères de leur vie. Qu’en est-il alors des expériences personnelles et interpersonnelles des personnes musulmanes issues de la diversité sexuelle quant à leur vécu sexuel et le vécu de leur orientation sexuelle? À l’aide de la théorie des scripts sexuels et du cadre analytique de l’intersectionnalité, cette recherche explore les influences des scripts sexuels présents dans la religion musulmane et dans la société québécoise sur le vécu sexuel et le vécu de l’orientation sexuelle des personnes musulmanes issues de la diversité sexuelle. Notre conclusion est que les influences respectives de ces scripts sexuels engendrent des défis multiples et distincts sur le vécu sexuel, en plus des impacts sur le vécu de l’orientation sexuelle. Ces influences amènent à mobiliser des stratégies d’adaptation au niveau personnel et interpersonnel afin de passer au travers d’un processus d’acceptation de soi et de concilier identité religieuse et orientation sexuelle.

A novel LC-MS/MS technique for identification and characterization of degradation products of Bilastine and Montelukast sodium and its greenness assessment using AGREE tool
Authors: Rathod Sapna M. , Patel Nisarg C. , Dantroliya Riyaz , Prajapati Bhupendra G.
Published: December 2024

The degradation products (DPs) of Bilastine and Montelukast sodium have been identified and characterized utilizing a unique liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) technique. Both medications are anti-allergic, and they were subjected to hydrolysis, oxidation, photolysis, and heat stimuli in accordance with International Council for Harmonisation guidelines. Under circumstances of oxidative, acidic, and base hydrolysis stress, the cited drugs exhibited widespread degradation. The drug products were stable under thermal and photolytic stress. Six DPs were found and resolved. The drug and its breakdown products were separated chromatographically on an Agilent Zorbax C18 (150 × 4.6 mm, 5μm) column with an eluent of 10 mM ammonium acetate (pH 4): acetonitrile (25:75, v/v). The hypothesized structure of DPs and their corresponding routes are based on precise mass and MS/MS fragmentation patterns; obtained using LC-ESI-TQ-MS/MS. The suggested degradant structures and pathways will be crucial for optimizing the production and quality control parameters of the pharmaceuticals under consideration.

Published: December 2024

The city of Semarang is a city that has many traditions influenced by the diverse ethnicities living there. These ethnic groups produce numerous traditions resulting from acculturation, one example being Dugderan. Dugderan is a tradition from Semarang that results from the acculturation of three ethnicities or races: Arab, Chinese, and Javanese. Based on this, Dugderan is one of the traditions inherent to the people of Semarang City. Therefore, the Semarang City Government, as the organizer of Dugderan, feels that this event could become a tourist attraction in Semarang City. This research discusses the Dugderan Tradition as a tool to promote tourism activities in Semarang city. This study discusses the Dugderan Tradition in general and the processions during Dugderan with a theoretical approach using STP (Segmenting, Targeting, and Positioning). This research uses descriptive qualitative methods, and data collection includes observation, interviews, and literature studies. The results of this study show that during the implementation of Dugderan, the Semarang City Government has implemented Segmenting, Targeting, and Positioning effectively. Because of this, this research will provide beneficial information that can be implemented to promote other events in Semarang to increase the number of visitors to the city.

Due to the latter’s importance in maintaining a firm’s reputation and identity or branding, said role would have more impact for marketing purposes if one invests on its capability. However, before a business firm advances itself in marketing, the creation of a firm’s identity through branding is one of the most important actions and decisions to create a unique identity inside society. The creation of a business’s branding is one of corporate communication’s roles in order to create sales and marketing assets. This research is purposed to reveal corporate communication’s role in creating and maintaining the branding activity of Wargi Santosa Ltd. to strengthen its business identity and expand its assets branding. Wargi Santosa’s branding activity is a form of internal preparation for marketing operations on the free market with the goals of expanding business prospects and ventures.
Criterion placement threatens the construct validity of neural measures of consciousness
Authors: Fahrenfort Johannes J , Johnson Philippa A , Kloosterman Niels A , Stein Timo , van Gaal Simon
Published: December 2024

How consciousness arises from brain activity has been a topic of intense scientific research for decades. But how does one identify the neural basis of something that is intrinsically personal and subjective? A hallmark approach has been to ask observers to judge stimuli as ‘seen’ (conscious) and ‘unseen’ (unconscious) and use post hoc sorting of neural measurements based these judgments. Unfortunately, cognitive and response biases are known to strongly affect how observers place their criterion for judging stimuli as ‘seen’ vs. ‘unseen’, thereby confounding neural measures of consciousness. Surprisingly however, the effect of conservative and liberal criterion placement on neural measures of unconscious and conscious processing has never been explicitly investigated. Here we use simulations and electrophysiological brain measurements to show that conservative criterion placement has an unintuitive consequence: rather than selectively providing a cautious estimate of conscious processing, it inflates effect sizes in neural measures of both conscious and unconscious processing, while liberal criterion placement does the reverse. After showing this in simulation, we performed decoding analyses on two electroencephalography studies that employ common subjective indicators of conscious awareness, in which we experimentally manipulated the response criterion. The results confirm that the predicted confounding effects of criterion placement on neural measures of unconscious and conscious processing occur in empirical data, while further showing that the most widely used subjective scale, the Perceptual Awareness Scale (PAS), does not guard against criterion confounds. Follow-up simulations explicate how the experimental context determines whether the relative confounding effect of criterion placement is larger in neural measures of either conscious or unconscious processing. We conclude that criterion placement threatens the construct validity of neural measures of conscious and unconscious processing.
Plant phenotypes as trajectories: 38-yr monitoring reveals that shape of lifetime fecundity schedule is under selection in a long-lived shrub
Authors: Herrera Carlos M.
Published: December 2024

Defining a phenotype is sometimes problematic in the case of modularly-built, nonunitary organisms with indeterminate growth dependent on environmental conditions, such as plants. This paper presents a proof of concept of the evolutionary significance of considering lifetime trajectories of individual plants as a component of their phenotypes. Plant size and inflorescence production were monitored for the whole reproductive lifespans of N = 128 individuals of the Mediterranean woody shrub Lavandula latifolia (Lamiaceae) over a 38-year period to address the following questions: Did individuals vary in lifetime trajectories of size and fecundity?, and were parameters describing individual trajectories significant predictors of cumulative lifetime reproduction? Individuals differed widely in lifetime fecundity and in every parameter describing lifetime fecundity schedule (age at first and last reproduction, longevity, and mean, variance, skewness and kurtosis of lifetime temporal distribution of inflorescence production). Phenotypic selection analysis revealed significant relationships between parameters of individual lifetime schedules and a surrogate of relative fitness of individuals (cumulative lifetime production of inflorescences divided by the average for all individuals). Significant selection gradients involved positive and negative directional selection, as well as instances of nonlinear selection, which showed that plants with certain shapes of lifetime fecundity schedules had fitness advantage over others. The notion of plant phenotypes as trajectories was strongly supported by the combined findings that individuals differed greatly in their "appearances" regarding the way in which size and fecundity unfolded over lifetime, and that selection efficaciously "saw" such variation.

discorre sobre as categorias, mentalidade e práticas de inovação. A inovação dentro das organizações pode ser
classificada em quatro categorias principais: inovação de produto, inovação de processo, inovação
organizacional e inovação em modelos de negócio. Essas vertentes permitem que as empresas não apenas
introduzam novidades, mas também aprimorem suas operações, criando vantagens competitivas e se adaptando
às demandas do mercado. Para cultivar uma mentalidade de inovação, é fundamental que as organizações
adotem uma cultura que valorize a criatividade e a experimentação. Isso pode ser alcançado por meio da
promoção de um ambiente colaborativo, onde as equipes são incentivadas a compartilhar ideias e soluções. Além
disso, é essencial implementar práticas de liderança que estimulem a participação ativa dos colaboradores e a
aceitação de riscos calculados. Por fim, a criação de uma cultura de inovação requer a adoção de recursos e
práticas específicas. Ambientes de trabalho que favorecem a colaboração, a capacitação contínua e o networking
externo são essenciais. Metodologias ágeis e ferramentas de gestão de ideias também desempenham um papel crucial. Assim, ao focar nesses elementos, as empresas podem não apenas fomentar a inovação, mas também garantir sua sustentabilidade e perenidade no mercado.

Blood Clot PCR For Diagnosis Of Enteric Fever
Authors: B Sandhya Kulkarni , Mishra Baijayanti
Published: December 2024

Background: Though several reports of the resistance to first-choice antimicrobial for enteric fever i.e.
Ceftriaxone emerge, empirical use of the same antimicrobial without diagnostic confirmation continues. The gold
standard, blood culture has poor sensitivity and lacks rapidity. Culturing bone marrow though definitive, is
invasive. It is mostly used as last resort to solving undifferentiated fever cases. Serology cannot be used to expand
its scope to give information on antimicrobial resistance. This leads us to molecular diagnosis as alternative.
Hence, this study was aimed to evaluate performance of the multiplex Real-time PCR using novel targets for early
diagnosis of enteric fever on blood clot samples at a tertiary care center.
Materials and Methods: In this retrospective non-randomized study, 116 patients with diagnosis of enteric fever
were included and the DNA extracted from blood clot samples collected for routine WIDAL test were subjected
to multiplex Real-time PCR assay targeting novel sequences of Salmonella ser. Typhi and Salmonella ser.
Paratyphi A. The results of the new assay were compared to simultaneously requested blood culture, WIDAL tube
agglutination tests and or final clinical impression.
Results: The multiplex Real-time PCR assay using DNA extracted from clot sample gave an accuracy of 70.7%
with an overall sensitivity of 50.9% and specificity of 82.1% against all 116 enteric fever cases with positive
predictive value of 92.2% and negative predictive value of 28.8%. The performance of this PCR was statistically
significant (p = 0.001) in 116 patients with diagnosis of enteric fever either by laboratory tests or clinically
confirmed cases.
Conclusion: To diagnose enteric fever using this test, further optimization is needed to improve the sensitivity by enrichment of clot samples and screening of additional sequences with a better detection limit could help to improve the overall performance of this diagnostic test.
Experimental Study On The Performance Of A Compression Ignition Engine Fueled With Blends Of Waste Plastic Oil And Butanol
Authors: Sharma Prashant , Sharma Dr.Jaidev
Published: December 2024

In recent years, the eco-friendly management of plastic waste has become a global area of interest. Some
methods, such as incineration and landfilling, have been explored; however, they cause severe environmental
impacts. Pyrolysis of plastic waste presents an environmentally friendly alternative for managing plastics.
Through pyrolysis, plastic waste can be converted into hydrocarbon fuel, which can then be used in internal
combustion engines to generate power and heat. Diesel engines were tested using fuel blends of D80P10N10
(80% diesel, 10% waste plastic oil, 10% butanol) and D80P20 (diesel and waste plastic oil). The effects of
blending ratios on performance, combustion, and emission characteristics were investigated. The results
showed slight improvements in brake power, brake thermal efficiency, and brake specific fuel consumption (BSFC) for the test fuels D80P10N10 and D80P20 compared to pure diesel. Based on the performance and emission analysis, the D80P10N10 blend was identified as the most suitable alternative to replace diesel.

Authors: Chetry Dipa , Collins Dr. Hancy
Published: December 2024

Background: Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are a group of disorders of the heart and blood vessels and
include coronary heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, rheumatic heart disease, and other conditions. More
than four out of five CVD deaths are due to heart attacks and strokes, and one-third of these deaths occur
prematurely. Since there are not many studies on these rural communities to identify the prevalence rate and
associated risk factors, so the investigators have selected this study for proper risk identification, assessing the
prevalence rate and educating and motivating adults on appropriate screening, prevention, and treatment.
Materials and Methods: A descriptive cross sectional study was conducted in a rural community in West Bengal,
India. Total 100 numbers of adults were selected for the study. The prevalence rate and risk factors of
cardiovascular diseases were assessed using the structured interview schedule and physical measurements.
Results: The result reveals that regarding behavioural risk factors of Cardiovascular diseases, among the 100
participants, 60(60%) consume Tobacco products and 81 (81%) consume Alcohol, Adequate consumption of
Fruits and vegetables is only 10(10%) i.e. more than 5 times in a week, 19(19%) perform sufficient physical
activity/exercise i.e more than 150 minutes/week. Regarding physical assessments, the overweight was 19(19%)
and obesity was 9(9%), the abdominal obesity in males was 31(31%), and in females was 35 (35%). The
prevalence rate of Hypertension was 23(23%), Stroke was 2(2%), Coronary Heart Disease was 7(7%), High
blood cholesterol was 2(2%), and Diabetes Mellitus was 11(11%).
Conclusion: The study demonstrated the high burden of fatal CVDs and identified the impact of CVDs risk factors
such as hypertension, self-reported diabetes, high cholesterol, smoking, alcohol, and abdominal obesity. The
significant incidence of CVDs risk factors in the rural communities, particularly among those who are overweight or obese, necessitates early clinical identification, referral and appropriate management of clients in primary health care settings
The Essence Of Reinvented OD: A Study On Organization Development & Organizational Development

Published: December 2024

Welcome to the World of Reinvented OD. Kurt Lewin (1947), the founding father of OD, played a key role in the
evolution. Everyone comes with multiple experiences in organizations—from your family to your schools;
churches, synagogues, temples, and mosques; workplaces; charitable organizations; government agencies;
sports teams; social clubs; labor unions; and so on. Some of the experiences have probably been positive, while
some have probably been negative. That’s the nature of the world in which we live.
In today’s Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, and Ambiguous (VUCA) World, businesses undergo regular change,
creating a need for continuous Organization Development. There are some of the approaches, which
professionals in the field of OD use to turn negative experiences into positive ones and how good OD practice
relies on solid OD theory can help organizations to be more productive, more satisfying, and more effective and
efficient.
Since Tomorrow’s World is different from Today’s World, the Essence of Reinvented OD (Organization
Development & Organizational Development), is very much essential for the Organizations in all over the World.
The purpose of this study is to explore the Organization Development & Organizational Development as the
Essence of Reinvented OD, which are the evidence-based scientific & sense-making New Approaches, helps Organizations more effective, adaptive to change by developing, improving and reinforcing the strategies, structures & processes.

Published: May 2019

Background

Research regarding the effects of occupational physical activity on health remains inconsistent. We analyzed the association of occupational physical activity with all‐cause and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality.

Methods

We analyzed two cohorts with baseline assessments from 1977 to 1993 (“National Research Program 1A” (NRP1A) and “MONItoring of trends and determinants in CArdiovascular disease" [MONICA]) and mortality follow‐up until 2015 using adjusted Cox regression models.

Results

We included 4396 NRP1A participants (137 793 person‐years of follow‐up, 1541 deaths) and 5780 MONICA participants (135 410 person‐years, 1158 deaths). All‐cause mortality was higher for men in the high compared with the low occupational physical activity category according to NRP1A (hazard ratio [HR] 1.25, 95% confidence intervals [CI] 1.05‐1.50). CVD mortality was higher for men in the moderate compared with the low occupational physical activity category according to MONICA (HR, 1.41; 95% CI, 1.03‐1.91). Results for women were not statistically significant.

Conclusions

We observed higher total and CVD mortality risks in men with higher occupational physical activity but inconsistent results for women and across cohorts.

Charcot–Marie–Tooth (CMT) is a common neuropathy, and hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy with proximal predominance (HMSN‐P) is a recently described rare neuromuscular disease. Although many genes have been implicated for CMT, TFG is the only known HMSN‐P‐causing gene. Within the framework of diagnostic criteria, clinical variation is evident among CMT‐diagnosed and also HMSN‐P‐diagnosed individuals. Mutations that cause p.(Pro285Leu) and p.(Gly269Val) in TFG were earlier reported as cause of HMSN‐P in two Iranian pedigrees. Here, we report the identification of p.(Gly269Val) in TFG as cause of CMT in a large Iranian pedigree. The clinical features of patients of the three pedigrees are presented and critically compared. Similarities between the two HMSN‐P‐diagnosed pedigrees with different TFG mutations, and differences between the two differentially diagnosed pedigrees with the same p.(Gly269Val) mutation were evident. The clinical features of the HMSN‐P pedigree with the p.(Pro285Leu) and the CMT pedigree with the p.(Gly269Val) mutation were clearly congruent with the respective diagnoses, whereas the features of the HMSN‐P‐diagnosed pedigree with the p.(Gly269Val) were intermediate between the other two pedigrees. It is therefore suggested that the clinical features of the three Iranian pedigrees with TFG mutations and diagnosed with HMSN‐P or CMT represent a continuum.

Muenke syndrome (MIM #602849), the most common syndromic craniosynostosis, results from the recurrent pathogenic p.P250R variant in FGFR3. Affected patients exhibit wide phenotypic variability. Common features include coronal craniosynostosis, hearing loss, carpal and tarsal anomalies, and developmental/behavioral issues. Our study examined the phenotypic findings, medical management, and surgical outcomes in a cohort of 26 probands with Muenke syndrome identified at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. All probands had craniosynostosis; 69.7% had bicoronal synostosis only, or bicoronal and additional suture synostosis. Three male patients had autism spectrum disorder. Recurrent ear infections were the most common comorbidity, and myringotomy tube placement the most common extracranial surgical procedure. Most patients (76%) required only one fronto‐orbital advancement. de novo mutations were confirmed in 33% of the families in which proband and both parents were genetically tested, while in the remaining 66% one of the parents was a mutation carrier. In affected parents, 40% had craniosynostosis, including 71% of mothers and 13% of fathers. We additionally analyzed the medical resource utilization of probands with Muenke syndrome. To our knowledge, these data represent the first comprehensive examination of long‐term management in a large cohort of patients with Muenke syndrome. Our study adds valuable information regarding neuropsychiatric and medical comorbidities, and highlights findings in affected relatives.
Depolymerization of End‐of‐Life Poly(bisphenol A carbonate) via Alkali‐Metal‐Halide‐Catalyzed Methanolysis
Authors: Alberti Christoph , Enthaler Stephan
Published: May 2019

Chemical recycling, composed of depolymerization and polymerization, of end‐of‐life polymers (plastics) can contribute to a sustainable and resource‐conserving society. In this respect, we have installed a straightforward procedure for the first step (depolymerization) of the chemical recycling of end‐of‐life poly(bisphenol A carbonate). Operating with a combination of methanol and catalytic amounts of potassium fluoride end‐of‐life poly(bisphenol A carbonate) was depolymerized to the building blocks bisphenol A and dimethyl carbonate. With the assistance of microwave heating, an excellent rate of depolymerization (>99%) was observed within short reaction times (5 min) and turnover frequencies up to ∼1844 h−1 were realized. Noteworthly, bisphenol A and dimethyl carbonate could be applied as monomers for new poly(bisphenol A carbonate), therefore a closed cycle for poly(bisphenol A carbonate) is feasible.

Authors: Kotipalli Trimurtulu , Hou Duen‐Ren
Published: May 2019

A one‐pot, two‐staged protocol has been developed for the synthesis of 3‐bromoindenes from aryl alkynyl alcohols/sulfonamides and aldehydes. Bromotrimethylsilane (TMSBr) initiated a halo‐Prins cyclization reaction to give 3‐(bromomethylene)‐tetrahydropyrans or ‐piperidines, which underwent ring‐opening and Friedel‐Crafts allylation to yield 3‐bromoindenes in the presence of Brønsted acids.
Direct Monitoring of Cell Membrane Vesiculation with 2D AuNP@MnO2 Nanosheet Supraparticles at the Single‐Particle Level
Authors: Ling Yunyun , Zhang Di , Cui Ximin , Wei Meimei , Zhang Ting , Wang Jianfang , Xiao Lehui , Xia Yunsheng
Published: May 2019

We herein demonstrate robust two‐dimensional (2D) UFO‐shaped plasmonic supraparticles made of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and MnO2 nanosheets (denoted as AMNS‐SPs) for directly monitoring cell membrane vesiculation at the single‐particle level. Because the decorated MnO2 nanosheets are ultrathin (4.2 nm) and have large diameters (230 nm), they are flexible enough for deformation and folding for parceling of the AuNPs during the endocytosis process. Correspondingly, the surrounding refractive index of the AuNPs increases dramatically, which results in a distinct red‐shift of the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR). Such LSPR modulation provides a convenient and accurate means for directly monitoring the dynamic interactions between 2D nanomaterials and cell membranes. Furthermore, for the endocytosed AMNS‐SPs, the subsequent LSPR blue‐shift induced by etching effects of reducing molecules is promising for exploring the local environment redox states at the single‐cell level.
An Antimony(V) Dication as a Z‐Type Ligand: Turning on Styrene Activation at Gold
Authors: Lo Ying‐Hao , Gabbaï François P.
Published: May 2019

With the intent to demonstrate that the charge of Z‐type ligands can be used to modulate the electrophilic character and catalytic properties of coordinated transition metals, we are now targeting complexes bearing polycationic antimony‐based Z‐type ligands. Toward this end, the dangling phosphine arm of ((o‐(Ph2P)C6H4)3)SbCl2AuCl (1) was oxidized with hydrogen peroxide to afford [((o‐(Ph2P)C6H4)2(o‐Ph2PO)C6H4)SbAuCl2]+ ([2 a]+) which was readily converted into the dicationic complex [((o‐(Ph2P)C6H4)2(o‐Ph2PO)C6H4)SbAuCl]2+ ([3]2+) by treatment with 2 equiv AgNTf2. Both experimental and computational results show that [3]2+ possess a strong Au→Sb interaction reinforced by the dicationic character of the antimony center. The gold‐bound chloride anion of [3]2+ is rather inert and necessitates the addition of excess AgNTf2 to undergo activation. The activated complex, referred to as [4]2+ [((o‐(Ph2P)C6H4)2(o‐Ph2PO)C6H4)SbAuNTf2]2+ readily catalyzes both the polymerization and the hydroamination of styrene. This atypical reactivity underscores the strong σ‐accepting properties of the dicationic antimony ligand and its activating impact on the gold center.
