Skeletal Senescence with Aging and Type 2 Diabetes
Authors: Farr Joshua Nicholas
Published: June 2023

Osteoporosis and type 2 diabetes (T2D) are common diseases that often coexist. While both of these diseases are associated with poor bone quality and increased fracture risk, their pathogenesis of increased fracture risk differs and is multifactorial. Mounting evidence now indicates that key fundamental mechanisms that are central to both aging and energy metabolism exist. Importantly, these mechanisms represent potentially modifiable therapeutic targets for interventions that could prevent or alleviate multiple complications of osteoporosis and T2D, including poor bone quality. One such mechanism that has gained increasing momentum is senescence, which is a cell fate that contributes to multiple chronic diseases. Accumulating evidence has established that numerous boneresident cell types become susceptible to cellular senescence with old age. Recent work also demonstrates that T2D causes the premature accumulation of senescent osteocytes during young adulthood, at least in mice, although it remains to be seen which other bone-resident cell types become senescent with T2D. Given that therapeutically removing senescent cells can alleviate age-related bone loss and T2D-induced metabolic dysfunction, it will be important in future studies to rigorously test whether interventions that eliminate senescent cells can also alleviate skeletal dysfunction in context of T2D, as it does with aging.
Habilidades del siglo XXI y Educación Religiosa Escolar

Published: June 2023

Las habilidades del siglo XXI corresponden a un conjunto de habilidades y aptitudes que son necesarias para desenvolverse y desarrollarse en el mundo actual, el que, gracias a las tecnologías de la información y el proceso de globalización, ha generado nuevas dinámicas sociales que confluyeron en la formación de lo que conocemos como “sociedad de la información”, rápidamente cambiante debido al acelerado progreso de las propias tecnologías. Entre las habilidades del siglo XXI se encuentran las que se refieren al pensamiento crítico, la comunicación, el trabajo en equipo, la colaboración y la creatividad, entre otras. Todas ellas son necesarias para que las personas se desarrollen en un mundo en constante cambio. Por tal razón, el Ministerio de Educación de Chile y los organismos supranacionales e intergubernamentales las fomentan en los contextos de aprendizaje escolar. Este artículo tiene como objetivo mostrar cómo se abordan y fomentan estas habilidades en las Bases Curriculares de Religión Católica (2020), asumiendo que dichas habilidades son esenciales para el desarrollo integral de las personas y la formación de ciudadanos críticos aptos para desenvolverse adecuadamente en la sociedad actual. Además, se señala la vinculación de estas habilidades con el desarrollo y la formación propia del creyente y con el estímulo del ámbito espiritual y religioso de los estudiantes.
valor de la persona en la Educación Religiosa Escolar a partir de la crisis sanitaria por el Covid-19
Authors: Fernández Picado Marco Antonio
Published: June 2023

El presente ensayo procura reflexionar acerca del valor de la persona en la dinámica de la Educación Religiosa Escolar (ERE) y en el contexto de la crisis sanitaria por el Covid-19. Si bien es cierto que el sector educativo logró desarrollar habilidades tecnológicas para continuar con los procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje durante la pandemia, es necesario interrogarse: ¿Cuál es la importancia de la persona en la dinámica de la ERE en el contexto de la crisis sanitaria? En esta etapa de recuperación resulta significativo analizar el valor de la persona y su dimensión relacional o social desde la naturaleza de la ERE, en cuanto la coyuntura sanitaria evidenció la primacía del contacto interpersonal mediante las tecnologías de la información y comunicación, pero al mismo tiempo se manifestó la necesidad del contacto humano presencial y la convivencia cara a cara durante este periodo. Como un elemento transversal de la Educación Religiosa Escolar, cabe resaltar el valor de la persona y fomentar la sana convivencia desde la escucha activa y la empatía. Dicho planteamiento está en concordancia con la propuesta del Papa Francisco en el Pacto Educativo Global, iniciativa en la que expresa como primer compromiso: la centralidad de la persona en los procesos educativos.

Published: June 2023

Disputes over the registration of pauman land as individual plots through PTSL have been frequent. The author sees a gap between the predetermined norm and the implementationof the practice that exists in the awig-awig of Pura Pauman. The issues studied are related to pauman's legal status as a legal subject who can have land rights, and the model of registering Pauman's land rights. It is an empirical legal study with a statute, historical, case, an analysis of legal concepts, and legal sosiology approach.
There are steps that can be taken to ensure that pauman has a strong position of ownership over the land, that is including using the subject of the temple, which is recognized by Decree of the Minister of Home Affairs Number SK.556/DJA/1986, so that a Certificate of Property Rights (SHM) can be issued on behalf of the Temple. Pauman cannot be referred to as a legal law that can disenfranchise title to land under state law. 
For pauman who wish to register pauman land remains a communal property right then it would be better to use the subject name of the Temple as opposed to borrowing the name klian. In addition, the Prediction of dispute will exist because there are indications of re-recognition by the puri family so this needs to be anticipated by pauman.
Mediating Economics Curriculum Implementation Through Meaningful Assessment- A Case Study of the South African Educational System
Authors: Manzi Wellington , Moreeng Boitumelo
Published: June 2023

This empirical study explored how Economics teachers mediate Economics curriculum implementation through the use of meaningful assessment. Assessment plays a significant role in learner academic achievement, and it is, therefore, imperative that teachers’ practices produce creative learners, problem solvers, and reflective scholars. Despite increasing realization of the importance of assessment, teachers are either not using assessment or failing to use it meaningfully to mediate economics curriculum implementation. Assessment is a process of collecting data to have a better understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of learners’ learning. If the assessment is used meaningfully, it has the power to inform how teaching and learning can be modified to enhance learners’ understanding of concepts as opposed to being used just for certification and eligibility for further education studies. Effective Economics curriculum implementation is dependent on the teachers’ understanding of the role and use of meaningful assessment. This interpretivist study was couched in Mediated Learning Experience (MLE) theory and made use of a qualitative multiple case study. Three teachers from three different schools in the Northern Cape Province were purposefully selected to generate data through semi-structured interviews and classroom observations. Data was analyzed using a constructivist approach of thematic analysis. The findings of this study showed that, although there are pockets of good assessment practices within the research sites, there is still a lack of understanding of the role and use of meaningful assessment in mediating Economics curriculum implementation. In light of the findings, the study suggested the need for training Economics teachers on how to use assessment meaningfully.

Ab-initio QCD Calculations Impact the Inference of the Neutron-star-matter Equation of State
Authors: Gorda Tyler , Komoltsev Oleg , Kurkela Aleksi
Published: June 2023

We demonstrate that ab-initio calculations in QCD at high densities offer significant and nontrivial information about the equation of state of matter in the cores of neutron stars, going beyond that which is obtainable from current astrophysical observations. We do so by extrapolating the equation of state to neutron-star densities using a Gaussian process and conditioning it sequentially with astrophysical observations and QCD input. Using our recent work, imposing the latter does not require an extrapolation to asymptotically high density. We find the QCD input to be complementary to the astrophysical observations, offering strong additional constraints at the highest densities reached in the cores of neutron stars; with the QCD input, the equation of state is no longer prior dominated at any density. The QCD input reduces the pressure and speed of sound at high densities, and it predicts that binary collisions of equal-mass neutron stars will produce a black hole with greater than 95% (68%) credence for masses M ≥ 1.38M
⊙ (M ≥ 1.25M
⊙). We provide a Python implementation of the QCD likelihood function so that it can be conveniently used within other inference setups.
Searching for Spectroscopic Signatures of Ongoing Quenching in SDSS Galaxies
Authors: Weibel Andrea , Wang Enci , Lilly Simon J.
Published: June 2023

In this paper, we estimate the “star formation change parameter,” SFR79, which characterizes the current SFR relative to the average during the last 800 Myr, for ∼300,000 galaxies selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). The goals are to examine, in a much larger and independent sample, the trends previously reported in a sample of star-forming (SF) MaNGA galaxies and also to search for spectroscopic signatures of ongoing quenching in the so-called “Green Valley,” which is generally believed to contain galaxies that are migrating from the SF population to the quenched population of galaxies. Measuring SFR79 for our large sample of SDSS galaxies, we first confirm the basic results of SF galaxies published by Wang & Lilly. We then discuss in detail the calibration and meaning of SFR79 for galaxies that are well below the SFMS and establish the expected statistical signature of systematic ongoing quenching from modeling the z ∼ 0 quenching rate of the SF population. We conclude that it is not possible at present to establish unambiguous observational evidence for systematic ongoing quenching processes, due to limitations both in the noise of the observational data, in particular in the measurements of Hδ absorption, and in the calibration of SFR79, as well as biases introduced by the necessity of selecting objects with significant Hα emission. We do however see plausible indications of ongoing quenching, which are quantitatively consistent with expectations from “growth+quenching” models of galaxy evolution and a typical e-folding timescale for quenching of ∼500 Myr.

We develop and disseminate effective point-spread functions and
geometric-distortion solutions for high-precision astrometry and photometry with
the JWST NIRISS instrument. We correct field dependencies and detector effects,
and assess the quality and the temporal stability of the calibrations. As a
scientific application and validation, we study the proper motion (PM)
kinematics of stars in the JWST calibration field near the Large Magellanic
Cloud (LMC) center, comparing to a first-epoch Hubble Space Telescope (HST)
archival catalog with a 16 yr baseline. For stars with G ∼ 20, the median PM uncertainty is ∼13 μas yr−1 (3.1 km s−1), better than Gaia DR3
typically achieves for its very best-measured stars. We kinematically detect the
known star cluster OGLE-CL LMC 407, measure its absolute PM for the first time,
and show how this differs from other LMC populations. The inferred cluster
dispersion sets an upper limit of 24 μas
yr−1 (5.6 km s−1) on systematic uncertainties.
Red-giant-branch stars have a velocity dispersion of 33.8 ± 0.6 km
s−1, while younger blue populations have a narrower velocity
distribution, but with a significant kinematical substructure. We discuss how
this relates to the larger velocity dispersions inferred from Gaia DR3. These
results establish JWST as capable of state-of-the-art astrometry, building on
the extensive legacy of HST. This is the first paper in a series by our JWST
Telescope Scientist Team, in which we will use Guaranteed Time Observations to
study the PM kinematics of various stellar systems in the Local Group.
An Eclipsing Binary Comprising Two Active Red Stragglers of Identical Mass and Synchronized Rotation: A Post-mass-transfer System or Just Born That Way?
Authors: Stassun Keivan G. , Torres Guillermo , Kounkel Marina , Tofflemire Benjamin M. , Leiner Emily , Feliz Dax L. , Dixon Don M. , Mathieu Robert D. , Gosnell Natalie , Gully-Santiago Michael
Published: June 2023

We report the discovery of 2M0056–08 as an equal-mass eclipsing binary (EB), comprising two red straggler stars (RSSs) with an orbital period of 33.9 days. Both stars have masses of ≈1.419 M
⊙, identical to within 0.2%. Both stars appear to be in the early red-giant phase of evolution; however, they are far displaced to cooler temperatures and lower luminosities compared to standard stellar models. The broadband spectral energy distribution shows NUV excess and X-ray emission, which is consistent with chromospheric and coronal emission from magnetically active stars. Indeed, the stars rotate more rapidly than typical red giants and they evince light-curve modulations due to spots. These modulations also reveal the stars to be rotating synchronously with one another. There is evidence for excess FUV emission and long-term modulations in radial velocities, although it is not clear if they are also attributable to magnetic activity or if they reveal a tertiary companion. Stellar evolution models that are modified to account for the effects of spots can reproduce the observed radii and temperatures of the RSSs. If the system possesses a white dwarf tertiary, then mass-transfer scenarios could explain the manner by which the stars came to possess such remarkably identical masses and by which they came to be synchronized. However, if the stars are presumed to have been formed as identical twins and they then managed to become tidally synchronized as they evolved toward the red-giant branch, then all of the features of the system can be explained via activity effects without requiring a complex dynamical history.
Climate Neutral and Smart Cities, combining data about city people and their physical environment
Authors: Agasøster Bodil , Harrison Eric , Orten Hilde
Published: June 2023

The main objective of the Science Project (SP) Climate Neutral and Smart Cities is to demonstrate that environmental data and data about people’s attitudes, behavior and involvement can be combined for social, political and scientific analysis. In the project, scientists from the Social Sciences & Humanities Open Cloud (SSHOC) and Environmental Research Infrastructures (ENVRI) community work together with the aim of producing new and useful outputs for the benefit of the research community, such as indicators related to environmental indices, and methods and workflows for computing them. The environmental variables will be integrated with data from the European Social Survey for a selection of big European city regions. Data and metadata from the project will be accessible through a new prototype application that will be made available as an exploratory “labs” service from the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) Portal and the EOSC Marketplace. This will allow easy access to cross-domain data for scientific analysis and their provenance, as well as to other deliverables from the project.

This publication details the workplan of the Science Project (SP) “COVID-19 metadata findability and interoperability in EOSC” (short: META-COVID) that is part of the Horizon Europe funded project EOSC Future. The COVID-19 pandemic has generated a huge variety of research activities, studies, and policies across both the life sciences (LS) and the social sciences and humanities (SSH). Useful insights from combining the data and conclusions from these different forms of research are, however, hampered by the lack of a common metadata framework with which to describe them. This is because different scientific disciplines have different ways of organising research activities. For example, the type of the research (e.g., hypothesis testing versus hypothesis generating) and the methodology chosen (e.g., experimental, survey, cohort, case study) are key elements in understanding the data generated and in supporting its secondary use. Another issue to be tackled is the integration of various sources of metadata related to parliamentary and social media metadata. In META-COVID, scientists from the LS and SSH domains gathered to discuss ways in which metadata could go beyond the description of the data itself to include the basic elements of the research process (“contextual metadata”) within the frame of the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC). The main outcomes of the SP will be: i) An inventory of metadata schemas applied across infrastructures and domains; ii) The development of a framework for a metadata model characterising the research approach and workflow across research infrastructures; iii) The application of the framework to selected COVID-19 use cases; iv) The development of an ontology of COVID-19 related topics from parliamentary data and social media.

The involvement of trait-based approaches is crucial for understanding spatial patterns, energy flow and matter transfer in running water systems, which requires consistent knowledge of the functional structures of aquatic communities, with the advantage of combining physical properties and behavioral mechanisms of food acquisition rather than the taxonomic group. The present study indicated how functional feeding groups may be used as a proxy for classical taxonomic evaluation, as well as the potential interest in incorporating them as indicators of anthropogenic stressors. The composition and abundance of the functional feeding groups of aquatic insects were examined from September 2021 to August 2022 along the Western Rif Region.

Benthic samples were collected from nine sampling points in the studied area using a Surber sampler with a mesh size of 500 µm and a diameter of 20*20 cm. The stations included in this work were chosen for their accessibility as well as their position on the hydrographic systems. The abundance of sampled aquatic organisms in the whole study area revealed 5,342 individuals belonging to 60 families and seven orders of aquatic insects, classified into five feeding functional groups. In terms of abundance, Collector-gatherers (Ephemeroptera and Diptera) were the most abundant trophic group at most of the sites, with a proportion of 38.47%. Predators (Coleoptera, Hemiptera and Odonata) were the second group at all sites, followed by Collector-filters, accounting for 39.53%, 28.14% and 22.37% respectively, while Scarpers and Shredders had the lowest representation across all sites with 4.16%. The high number of registered Collectors could be related to their ability to feed on a diverse range of food items compared to the remaining trophic guilds. According to the Canonical Correspondence Analysis results, physicochemical (i.e. T, pH, BOD5, Cl- and NO3-) and hydromorphological (i.e. current velocity and depth) variables were amongst the key predictors of shaping the functional structure of aquatic biota during this investigation. It is highly recommended to carry out suitable measures to largely attenuate anthropogenic pressures in order to preserve the integrity of freshwater bodies and their biota.
Reassessment of the type locality of Euptychia stigmatica Godman, 1905, with the description of two new sibling species from Amazonia (Lepidoptera, Nymphalidae, Satyrinae, Satyrini)

A brief historical review regarding the type locality of Euptychia stigmatica Godman, 1905 was conducted, which suggests that its type locality is actually Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, rather than northeastern Argentina, as previously purported. Consequently, E. stigmatica and its senior synonym E. cyanites Butler, 1871, are regarded to be two species-group names representing a taxon in the euptychiine genus Caeruleuptychia Forster, 1964 known from the Brazilian Atlantic Forest. A lectotype is designated for E. cyanites. Additionally, two closely related species are named and described using an integrative approach with morphological and molecular evidence. Caeruleuptychia harrisi Nakahara & Freitas, sp. nov. and C. aemulatio Nakahara & Willmott, sp. nov. both occur in Amazonia and COI barcode data recovered these taxa as part of the caerulea clade of Caeruleuptychia.
The Post Pandemic Future: Nursing in the Region of the Americas and Mental Health
Authors: De Bortoli Cassiani Silvia , Dias Bruna , Johnson Rebecca
Published: June 2023

The transformative and impactful role of nurses has been highlighted throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. The health workforce has endured many particularly difficult challenges during this time, both professionally and in their personal lives, in the effort to respond to the needs of communities, patients, and families. As a result, many nurses and other providers are facing their own mental health challenges due to the prolonged response to address pandemic challenges. In the Region of the Americas, several areas have faced inequities and greater challenge, especially in countries that are low- and middle income. There is a tremendous gap between the number of people who need mental healthcare and those who receive it, even with the current health workforce. Increasing national investments in nursing in the Region of the Americas is necessary and has been addressed by the Pan American Health Organization. A strategic regional focus has been placed to empower healthcare professionals to achieve the levels of education necessary to improve working conditions and to have leadership roles supported and recognized in a model of resilient health systems. Protecting mental health of providers has become an important lesson of the pandemic and an essential and permanent component in the management of health systems and services. This article offers a summary of challenges in the Region of the America as leaders consider the best strategies to support a positive relationship that features resilience, adequate working conditions, and investments in the nursing profession for a post-COVID-19 future that protects workers’ mental health.
Livres et imprimés dans les petites écoles du Châtillonnais au xviii e siècle
Authors: Montagna Stéphane
Published: June 2023

Le village d’Ancien Régime n’apparaît pas comme le lieu préférentiel des usages de l’imprimé, en particulier lorsqu’il est touché par la pauvreté. Pourtant, le « livre scolaire » n’est pas totalement absent, aspect que les résistances aux projets révolutionnaires et républicains indiquent alors que les villageois font preuve de conservatisme mais aussi de propositions réfléchies quant à l’usage de l’imprimé pour les enfants.
2. Phèdre et la Théorie des sentiments moraux d’Adam Smith. Quelles heuristiques pour une économie morale des comportements ?
Authors: Michel Vanessa
Published: June 2023

Dans sa Théorie des Sentiments Moraux (TSM) , Adam Smith se réfère à de nombreuses reprises à des tragédies pour décrire la complexité des passions et des sentiments humains, en particulier les sentiments moraux. Le caractère de Phèdre revêt une place particulière dans la philosophie smithienne de la sympathie que nous décryptons dans cet article. Relire la TSM à travers le caractère de Phèdre nous permet de mettre en lumière le rôle clé de l’intrication de la sympathie et du spectateur impartial dans l’explication des motivations et des comportements humains. Des enseignements que nous mettons en perspective avec les travaux récents dans le domaine de l’économie comportementale et le rôle des émotions morales.
9. L’économie de l’espoir à la lecture du roman de Charles Dickens De grandes espérances
Authors: Petit Emmanuel , Vanfasse Nathalie
Published: June 2023

L’approche économique rationnelle s’est relativement peu intéressée à l’espoir, émotion fondamentale qui reflète un état d’esprit, détermine notre attitude par rapport à l’avenir, notre gestion de l’incertitude, et conditionne nos actions et nos décisions. Certains économistes encouragent toutefois à intégrer l’espoir à l’analyse économique. Dans cet article, nous chercherons à déterminer ce qu’un dialogue entre la littérature et l’économie pourrait apporter à la fois à la compréhension de l’espoir, à l’analyse économique, et à l’interprétation du roman de Dickens. Nous nous proposons d’explorer un roman de Dickens centré sur l’espoir, à savoir De Grandes espérances (1861). Ce qui frappe à la lecture du roman c’est que Dickens explore et approfondit dans son roman la notion même d’espérances ( expectations en anglais) au sens économique, en la déclinant de diverses manières et en étudiant les implications de ces différentes déclinaisons. Il part ainsi d’attentes, d’aspirations et d’anticipations de type très rationnel, très semblables à ce qu’étudiera plus tard la théorie économique standard, pour en souligner les limites et évoluer vers une définition plus complexe d’un espoir économique de nature plus spirituelle et philosophique, plus proche de ce que les économistes développent aujourd’hui face à l’avenir très incertain qui s’offre à nous.

Les relations franco-italo-allemandes (juillet 1914-mai 1915)
Authors: Marcobelli Elisa
Published: June 2023

La guerre vint bouleverser tout ce que la SFIO, le SPD et le PSI avaient laborieusement essayé de construire au niveau de solidarité internationale. Une fois la guerre déclarée, les représentants de la SFIO et du SPD se livrèrent à un véritable exercice de « diplomatie parallèle » pour orienter le choix des Italiens par rapport à leur participation à la guerre vers l’un ou l’autre champ.
Augustin Hamon et ses correspondants militants au front
Authors: Prigent François
Published: June 2023

Les fonds déposés au Centre d’Histoire du Travail (CHT) de Nantes permettent de saisir la complexité des représentations de la Grande Guerre, façonnées par Augustin Hamon. Figure éminente d’un socialisme européen déchiré par la guerre, Augustin Hamon incarne les paradoxes socialistes en temps de guerre. Du local à l’international, la correspondance nourrie avec des responsables socialistes majeurs aussi bien qu’avec un réseau de militants dispersés au front est l’occasion d’appréhender l’univers mental des socialistes, les échanges politiques en temps de guerre. Matériau exceptionnel de par son ampleur et la méthode d’enquête poursuivie par Augustin Hamon, à la fois militant et chercheur, ces lettres qui échappent largement à la censure nourrissent sa vision de l’expérience de guerre, présentée dans un ouvrage d’une modernité certaine.
« Une aurore socialiste ». Le premier voyage de Jean Jaurès en Belgique (1894)
Authors: Georges Martin , Candar Gilles
Published: June 2023

Notre article revient sur le premier voyage de Jean Jaurès en Belgique (mars 1894), à l’invitation de la Fédération bruxelloise du Parti ouvrier belge (POB) et du Cercle des Étudiants socialistes. Il s’inscrit dans une temporalité exceptionnelle, une « aurore socialiste », entre le premier succès électoral des socialistes français (août-septembre 1893) et celui des socialistes belges (octobre 1894). En amont de sa venue, nous suivons la naissance de la notoriété internationale de Jaurès dans la presse belge et son identification politique contradictoire. En aval, nous découvrons la « censure » par Le Peuple , quotidien national du POB, de l’article de Jaurès décrivant son passage en Belgique et la querelle sur les alliances électorales.
