The Implementation of Marketing Public Relations Strategy by the FF Luxury Watch Store on the Jakarta Based Customers
Authors: Rahman Abdul , Subiakto Vania Utamie , Susanti Susi , Purwoputro Djaswahadi
Published: July 2020

Marketing Public Relations is implemented among the customers with reference to the following strategies: (1) push strategy; (2) pull strategy; and (3) pass strategy. Pull Strategy refers to the strategy that might be implemented for stimulating a successful sale by means of certain tactics directed toward drawing the customers. Then, Pass Strategy refers to the strategy that might be implemented by means of engagement with social activities, social responsibilities, and charities. One of the ways that might be pursued under the initiative of Pass Strategy is being the sponsor of fundraising events with the Indonesian Cancer Foundation, with the orphanages, and other types of events. Furthermore, Push Strategy deals with the Marketing Public Relations Program and serves as the effort for stimulating the sale and providing the values or the satisfaction to the customers who have purchased the product of the given company. Customer satisfaction is indeed the result of customer evaluation toward the chosen alternatives, which has at least resulted in the same expectation or which has even exceeded the expectation of the customer. On the contrary, uncertainty appears when the results that have been attained do not meet the expectation of the given customer.

High-frequency long-baseline experiments with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array were organized to test the high angular resolution imaging capabilities in the submillimeter wave regime using baselines up to 16 km. Four experiments were conducted, two Band 7 (289 GHz) and two Band 8 (405 GHz) observations. Phase correction using band-to-band (B2B) phase referencing was used with a phase calibrator only

away observed in Band 3 (96 GHz) and Band 4 (135 GHz), respectively. In Band 8, we achieved the highest resolution of 14 × 11 mas. We compared the synthesis images of the target quasar using 20 and 60 s switching cycle times in the phase referencing. In Band 7, the atmosphere had good stability in phase rms (<0.5 rad over 2 minutes), and there was little difference in image coherence between the 20 and 60 s switching cycle times. One Band 8 experiment was conducted under a worse phase rms condition (>1 rad over 2 minutes), which led to a significantly reduced coherence when using the 60 s switching cycle time. One of our four experiments indicates that the residual phase rms error after phase referencing can be reduced to 0.16 rad at 289 GHz in using the 20 s switching cycle time. Such conditions would meet the phase correction requirement of image coherence of >70% in Band 10, assuming a similar phase calibrator separation angle, emphasizing the need for such B2B phase referencing observing at high frequencies.
Narrowband Large Amplitude Whistler-mode Waves in the Solar Wind and Their Association with Electrons: STEREO Waveform Capture Observations
Authors: Cattell C. A. , Short B. , Breneman A. W. , Grul P.
Published: July 2020

Large amplitude (up to 70 mV m−1) whistler-mode waves at frequencies of ∼0.2–0.4 f
ce (electron cyclotron frequency) are frequently observed in the solar wind. The waves are obliquely propagating at angles close to the resonance cone, resulting in significant electric fields parallel to the background magnetic field, enabling strong interactions with solar wind electrons. Very narrowband (sinusoidal waveforms) and less coherent waves (more irregular waveforms) occur, but do not have a bimodal distribution. Frequencies and/or propagation angles are distinctly different from whistler-mode waves usually observed in the solar wind, and amplitudes are 1–3 orders of magnitude larger. Waves occur most often in association with stream interaction regions, and are often “close-packed.” Wave occurrence as a function of normalized electron heat flux and beta is consistent with the whistler heat flux fan instability for both the narrowband coherent and the incoherent waves. The incoherent waves are associated with zero or near zero heat flux. This suggests that the less coherent waves may be more effective in regulating the electron heat flux, or that the scattering and energization of solar wind electrons by the narrowband waves results in broadening of the waves. The oblique propagation and large amplitudes of both the narrowband and less coherent whistlers enable resonant interactions with electrons over a broad energy range, and, unlike parallel whistlers, do not require that the electrons and waves counter-propagate. Therefore, they are much more effective in modifying solar wind electron distributions than parallel propagating waves.

We present kinematic orientations and high-resolution (150 pc) rotation curves for 67 main-sequence star-forming galaxies surveyed in CO (2–1) emission by PHANGS–ALMA. Our measurements are based on the application of a new fitting method tailored to CO velocity fields. Our approach identifies an optimal global orientation as a way to reduce the impact of nonaxisymmetric (bar and spiral) features and the uneven spatial sampling characteristic of CO emission in the inner regions of nearby galaxies. The method performs especially well when applied to the large number of independent lines of sight contained in the PHANGS CO velocity fields mapped at 1″ resolution. The high-resolution rotation curves fitted to these data are sensitive probes of mass distribution in the inner regions of these galaxies. We use the inner slope as well as the amplitude of our fitted rotation curves to demonstrate that CO is a reliable global dynamical mass tracer. From the consistency between photometric orientations from the literature and kinematic orientations determined with our method, we infer that the shapes of stellar disks in the mass range of log(

) = 9.0–10.9 probed by our sample are very close to circular and have uniform thickness.
Dependence of the Fundamental Plane of Early-type Galaxies on Age and Internal Structure
Authors: Yoon Yongmin , Park Changbom
Published: July 2020

We investigate the scatter in the fundamental plane (FP) of early-type galaxies (ETGs) and its dependence on age and internal structure of ETGs, using 16,283 ETGs with M

r
 ≤ −19.5 and 0.025 ≤ z < 0.055 in Sloan Digital Sky Survey data. We use the relation between the age of ETGs and photometric parameters such as color, absolute magnitude, and central velocity dispersion of ETGs and find that the scatter in the FP depends on age. The FP of old ETGs with age ≳9 Gyr has a smaller scatter of ∼0.06 dex (∼14%), while that of young ETGs with age ≲6 Gyr has a larger scatter of ∼0.075 dex (∼17%). In the case of young ETGs, less compact ETGs have a smaller scatter in the FP (∼0.065 dex; ∼15%) than more compact ones (∼0.10 dex; ∼23%). On the other hand, the scatter in the FP of old ETGs does not depend on the compactness of galaxy structure. Thus, among the subpopulations of ETGs, compact young ETGs have the largest scatter in the FP. This large scatter in compact young ETGs is caused by ETGs that have low dynamical mass-to-light ratio (M
dyn/L) and blue color in the central regions. By comparing with a simple model of the galaxy that has experienced a gas-rich major merger, we find that the scenario of recent gas-rich major merger can reasonably explain the properties of the compact young ETGs with excessive light for a given mass (low M
dyn/L) and blue central color.
Un nouveau paradigme de la dynamique des rendements immobiliers parisiens
Authors: Amédée-Manesme Charles-Olivier , Baroni Michel , Barthélémy Fabrice
Published: July 2020

Cet article fait suite au travail de Baroni, Barthélémy et Mokrane [2008], dans lequel les auteurs développent un modèle factoriel permettant d’expliquer la dynamique des prix des biens immobiliers résidentiels à Paris et sa proche banlieue par un ensemble de variables économiques et financières prédéfinies. Le présent article s’attache à mettre en exergue les changements récents du poids de ces facteurs explicatifs. Les principaux résultats de l’article sont d’une part que le modèle développé par Baroni, Barthélémy et Mokrane garde sa capacité explicative, et d’autre part, que le poids des facteurs a nettement évolué ces dernières années et, par suite, que le marché immobilier résidentiel parisien est entré dans un nouveau paradigme. L’article montre notamment que l’impact des loyers sur le rendement en capital immobilier s’est récemment renforcé au détriment des taux d’intérêt.
La structure des taux revisitée pour période de crise : entre contagion, flight to quality et quantitative easing
Authors: Martin Franck , Zhang Jiangxingyun
Published: July 2020

Cet article cherche à évaluer le rôle spécifique des risques de volatilité et de covolatilité dans la formation des taux d’intérêt à long terme de la zone euro sur les périodes de crise et post-crise, marquées par un rôle actif de la BCE. On propose pour cela un modèle de choix de portefeuille obligataire à deux pays qui permet de généraliser les résultats de la théorie traditionnelle de la structure par terme des taux d’intérêt. Les taux longs d’équilibre dépendent crucialement des covariances anticipées par les investisseurs sur les rendements obligataires. Des covariances anticipées positives amplifient les phénomènes de contagion par les fondamentaux en cas de dégradation des finances publiques, tandis que des covariances négatives amplifient les phénomènes de flight to quality . Le modèle est estimé économétriquement dans un cadre GARCH bivarié sur 21 paires de marchés obligataires souverains observés sur la période janvier 2006-septembre 2016. Cette évaluation empirique fait ressortir trois résultats importants. 1) La baisse des taux longs allemand et français très tôt dans la crise, à partir de mars 2011, a trouvé un support important dans la baisse des covariances anticipées vis-à-vis des pays périphériques, qui a véritablement amplifié le processus de flight to quality . 2) La logique des choix de portefeuilles optimaux, révélée par la sensibilité des taux longs aux risques de volatilité, semble disparaître pendant la crise pour réapparaître ensuite, à partir de la mise en place de l’OMT. 3) Un test à la Forbes et Rigobon [2002] sur les composantes non fondamentales des taux longs ne permet pas de conclure que le QE de la BCE, à partir de mars 2015, a véritablement entraîné une re-corrélation des marchés obligataires de la zone euro. Ce paradoxe s’explique par le fait que ces corrélations étaient déjà en moyenne élevées à la suite de l’OMT.
Retour sur la notion d’âge pivot ou d’équilibre
Authors: Viet Vincent
Published: July 2020

Cet article conteste, par touches successives, l’idée que la notion d’âge pivot ou d’équilibre puisse faire l’objet d’une définition ou d’un usage unique, inspiré du souci de préserver l’équilibre financier de notre système de retraite. Des situations tirées de l’histoire de notre protection sociale montrent en effet que cette notion a déjà été utilisée à des fins différentes, sans que le terme même d’âge pivot ait été employé. La relativisation qui en découle déjoue ainsi l’effet d’imposition dont la réforme projetée est porteuse.
La réforme universelle des retraites : sa place dans les évolutions de la protection sociale, son ambition systémique et son retour à une logique comptable
Authors: Guillemard Anne-Marie
Published: July 2020

L’objet de cet article est de proposer une interprétation de la réforme universelle des retraites en cours d’adoption en 2020. À cette fin, elle est replacée dans son contexte historique, social et économique. L’auteur utilise ses travaux de comparaisons internationales des systèmes de protection sociale pour retracer les principaux débats qui ont scandé la période 1980-2020 et éclairer les finalités affichées comme les choix successifs opérés en matière de réforme des retraites, en France, sur la période. Le suivi du processus de la dernière réforme, depuis ses ambitions initiales en 2017 jusqu’au projet de loi présenté au début de l’année 2020, permet de mettre en évidence le décalage existant entre le projet systémique initial et un texte donnant priorité à la logique comptable et à une réforme paramétrique.
Unfinished Business : les projets de Ramus au sujet de l’éthique et de la Politique d’Aristote
Authors: Meerhoff Kees
Published: July 2020

Dans cet article, composé en hommage aux travaux de Peter Sharratt, l’auteur examine l’attitude de Pierre de La Ramée (Ramus) et d’Omer Talon à l’égard de l’Éthique à Nicomaque. En tant qu’humanistes, ces derniers s’occupent intensément des arts du discours. Tout en reconnaissant la nécessité d’un fondement éthique dans tout discours, ils se montrent violemment hostiles au traité aristotélicien. Le traité posthume de théologie composé par Ramus propose le Décalogue comme source exclusive de la morale chrétienne. Ramus et Talon refusent de la sorte de s’engager dans la voie ouverte quelques décennies plus tôt par Ph. Melanchthon, qui avait intégré de manière originale la morale antique, notamment celle d’Aristote, dans la théologie protestante. Toutefois, vers la fin du xvie siècle, le philosophe hollandais Rodolphe Snellius, père adoptif du théologien Arminius, composera un traité de morale dans lequel il tente de concilier la morale aristotélicienne avec la méthode développée par Ramus et son équipe.
Desmos et philia chez Platon
Authors: Mouze Létitia
Published: July 2020

Il s’agit d’explorer la notion politique de « lien » (desmos) chez Platon et de déterminer son rapport avec la philia (amitié) des citoyens entre eux, condition sine qua non de la cité, et que l’on peut identifier à ce que nous appelons « le lien social ». Deux textes sont examinés dans cette perspective : Les Lois, VII, 793a-d et Le Politique, 305e et suiv. Bien que le terme soit pris dans chacun d’entre eux selon un point de vue différent (objectif dans les Lois, où il désigne les coutumes qui lissent et solidifient l’édifice législatif ; subjectif dans le Politique, où il désigne l’opinion vraie présente dans les âmes, grâce à laquelle celles-ci harmonisent leurs conceptions et donc leurs actions), il s’avère que le desmos est à chaque fois constitué par les manières de faire communes, lesquelles reposent sur des opinions communes. Fruit de l’éducation, œuvre politique essentielle et première, il est ce sans quoi la philia (le lien social, donc) n’est pas possible, ni par conséquent la cité comprise comme unité d’une multiplicité.
La voûte de la justice et le mur de la bienveillance : deux formes du lien social selon David Hume
Authors: Le Jallé Éléonore
Published: July 2020

En partant d’une métaphore que l’on trouve dans le troisième appendice de l’Enquête sur les principes de la morale de David Hume, je compare les modalités du lien social correspondant respectivement aux « vertus naturelles » (bienveillance) et aux « vertus artificielles » (justice) qu’il détermine, en présentant les grandes notions humiennes s’y rapportant (sympathie, convention) et en confrontant Hume à deux philosophes contemporains qui, sur ces questions, font référence à sa pensée (David Lewis sur la convention, John Rawls sur l’amour de l’humanité et la justice). J’étudie pour finir les contradictions possibles de la bienveillance et de la justice, dans la mesure où selon Hume certains actes isolés de justice, aussi indispensables soient-ils à la cohésion de la « voûte » de la justice, n’en posent pas moins certains problèmes du point de vue de la vertu de bienveillance qu’ils excluent, comme du point de vue de l’approbation morale dont ils font l’objet. À ce titre, ils constituent, comme l’écrit Hume, une « espèce de mal », ce que d’autres auteurs (Francis Hutcheson, Adam Smith ou même Rawls) ont à mon avis négligé.
« Nœud social » et « rapport civil » chez Rousseau
Authors: Lepan Géraldine
Published: July 2020

L’article explore les différentes modalités du lien chez Rousseau, social, civil, politique, selon les principaux axes de sa pensée. On part de la critique de la sociabilité des Lumières conduite dans le Discours sur l’origine et les fondements de l’inégalité parmi les hommes pour confronter le remède politique apporté dans le Contrat social à l’analyse qui est menée dans l’Émile autour de « l’homme abstrait » cultivant sa capacité d’attachement. Peut ainsi émerger la généalogie des liens à partir des relations de besoin. En contrepoint de la condamnation de la dépendance réciproque, une cartographie des notions de liaison, rapport, relation, nœud et ressort permet de donner tout son sens à la définition positive de l’homme comme « être relatif ».
Contemporary Theories of Learning and Pedagogical Approaches for All Students to Achieve Success
Authors: Shi Tianhong , Blau Eliza
Published: July 2020

Learning plays a key role in the development of human society. Learning theories and pedagogical approaches from the past can inform teaching and learning today. However, as society becomes more technologically advanced, as science uncovers more about the human brain, and as educational institutions become more open to persons historically excluded from educational environments, there is a need to understand and apply contemporary theories of learning to meet these changes. This chapter seeks to summarize contemporary theories of learning and pedagogical approaches for all students to achieve success. Summarizing these theories will help educators see the unique approach each theory offers and understand how multiple learning theories and pedagogies can be applied to their learning environment to support student success.
Inequities in the use of sulphadoxine-pyrimethamine for malaria prophylaxis during pregnancy in Nigeria
Authors: Mbachu Chinyere
Published: July 2020

BackgroundIntermittent presumptive treatment in pregnancy (IPTp) of malaria using sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine (SP) was introduced in Nigeria in 2005 to reduce the burden of malaria in pregnancy. By 2013, 23% of reproductive aged women surveyed received SP for malaria prevention in their last pregnancy of the past 5 years. This paper highlights geographic and socio-economic variations and inequities in accessing and using SP for malaria prophylaxis in pregnancy in Nigeria, as well as client-related and service delivery determinants.MethodsSecondary data from 2013 Nigeria demographic and health survey (DHS) was used. Sample of 38,948 eligible women were selected for interview using stratified three-stage cluster design. Data obtained from the individual recode dataset was used for descriptive and logistic regression analysis of factors associated with SP use in pregnancy was performed. Independent variables were age, media exposure, region, place of residence, wealth index, place of antenatal care (ANC) attendance and number of visits. ResultsWomen in the upper three wealth quintiles were 1.33 - 1.80 times more likely to receive SP than the poorest (CI: 1.15-1.56; 1.41-1.97; 1.49-2.17). Women who received ANC from public health facilities were twice as likely (inverse of OR 0.68) to use SP in pregnancy than those who used private facilities (CI: 0.60-0.76). Those who attended at least 4 ANC visits were 1.46 times more likely to get SP prophylaxis (CI: 1.31-1.63). Using the unadjusted odds ratio, women residing in rural areas were 0.86 times less likely to use SP compared to those in urban areas.ConclusionsInequities in access to and use of SP for malaria prophylaxis in pregnancy exist across sub-population groups in Nigeria. Targeted interventions on the least covered are needed to reduce existing inequities and scale-up IPTp of malaria.

The article considers the number of women giving birth in Russia in the context of the existing demographic problems caused by the depopulation of the country. The study evaluates the social, economic and medical factors influencing the dynamics of the number of women giving birth in the Russian Federation based on correlation and regression analysis, and also provides a short-term forecast for their further change. The implementation of the increase in the number of women giving birth in Russia is one of the current important sociodemographic tasks for the State; This will improve the demographic situation and will lay the foundations for the formation of a sufficient human resource, which will later form the country's high human capital. According to the results of forecasting the dynamics of the number of women in the work in the short term, it was determined that the downward trend in the number of women in the work will continue, since the negative impact of medical factors will remain unchanged. changes, while economic and social factors will not change.
Biopsicosociología del orgasmo en el varón y en la hembra: fundamentos y diferencias
Authors: Reyes Andrés , Añolis Mariana , Ochoa Édixon , Matera María
Published: July 2020

La respuesta sexual se encuentra mediada por factores anatomo-hormono-neuro-vasculoendoteliales. Ha sido explicada a través de varios modelos como el tetrafásico (Masters y Johnson, 1966), el trifásico (Kaplan, 1979), y el pentafásico (Bancroft, 1983), entre otros. El orgasmo se ubica como una de estas fases en estos modelos. Éste se define como un conjunto de sensaciones corporales sumamente placenteras y de excitación intensa, que libera tensiones y que produce satisfacción. Existen pocas diferencias entre el orgasmo del varón y de la hembra; desde un punto de vista funcional, el orgasmo del varón está estrechamente relacionado con la eyaculación, mientras que en la hembra no existe una conexión tan obvia y directa. En este estudio se recopilaron las semejanzas y diferencias presentes en el orgasmo del varón y de la hembra, referidas a los fundamentos anatómicos, fisiológicos, neuroendocrinos, neurológicos, psicológicos, socioculturales y espirituales.
O FRACASSO ESCOLAR À LUZ DA TEORIA HISTÓRICO-CULTURAL: REFLEXÕES ACERCA DA CULPABILIZAÇÃO DO ALUNO
Authors: Lima Tamara de , Souza Leandro Aparecido de
Published: July 2020

School failure is an object of debate in different educational and political spheres. Despite the discussions, it is a problem that is far from a resolution and deserves the attention of researchers. Research in the educational area has pointed out that the explanations for the phenomenon are centered on the student and/or his family. Thus, the aim of this theoretical essay is to problematize the conception that school failure is the sole and exclusive responsibility of the student, and the naturalizing and positivist views about the human being, in an attempt to overcome it. The theoretical and methodological framework to which our analysis sought support is the historical-cultural theory and, therefore, dialectical historical materialism. We specifically analyze the social and psychological dimensions of school failure beyond the accountability of the student and his family, considering the totality of social being and the objective conditions of concrete reality. Taking a critical look at the phenomenon of school failure implies revealing our difficulty as a society, embodied in our education systems, school institutions and education professionals in dealing with the challenges arising from the democratization of education, that is, with the access of the popular classes to the public school. Thus, school failure endsup being treated as an individual problem, exempting the others involved in the schooling process from responsibility.
The Return of the Sacral King
Authors: DeHart Paul R. ,   Society of Catholic Social Scientists
Published: July 2020

In Pagans & Christians in the City, Steven D. Smith argues that in contrast to ancient Rome, ancient Christianity, following Judaism, located the sacred outside the world, desacralizing the cosmos and everything in it—including the political order. It thereby introduced a political dualism and potentially contending allegiances. Although Smith’s argument is right so far as it goes, it underplays the role of Christianity’s immanent dimension in subverting the Roman empire and the sacral pattern of antiquity. This division of authority not only undermined the Roman empire and antique sacral political order more generally—it also subverts the modern state, which, in the work of Hobbes and Rousseau, sought to remarry what Western Christianity divorced.
Leadership Lessons from the Court of St. Fernando
Authors: Montes Guillermo , Chamberland Ross ,   Society of Catholic Social Scientists
Published: July 2020

This article analyzes the leadership of a medieval treatise on leadership written at the request of Saint Fernando III of Castile in the thirteen century. We investigate how the conceptualization of leadership is similar and different from our modern approaches. We find that the medieval leadership source had stronger Catholic ontological and epistemological underpinnings although it remained hostage to prejudices and misconceptions of its time. The analysis raises questions about how modern secular leadership approaches do not clearly disclose their own ontological and epistemological foundations. In addition, the contrast with a medieval leadership source shows our modern leadership approaches also remain captive to the prejudices and misconceptions of our time. Most importantly, modern leadership approaches assume leaders can set final ends, are immune to greed in themselves and others, focus on intelligence rather than will, and technical skill rather than moral virtue. On the other hand, both sources agree leaders should be decisive, sociable, approachable, and create a culture of trust. More research on historical models of leadership is needed.
La fonction formatrice de l’université pour une société apprenante
Authors: Landenne Quentin
Published: July 2020

Alors que les universités contemporaines sont vouées à repenser leur autonomie et leurs missions sociales dans le contexte de la société de la connaissance, cet article revient sur les riches débats philosophiques qui ont entouré la fondation de l’Université de Berlin, au début du dix-neuvième siècle, dans l’idéalisme allemand. Prenant pour fil conducteur les écrits de Fichte sur la philosophie de l’université, il propose de les reconstruire à partir de cinq grands modèles. Le modèle bien connu de la communauté organique isolée, plutôt dominant dans le Plan déductif de 1807, est ainsi complété et complexifié par quatre autres modèles. Pris ensemble, ces modèles permettent de penser à la fois l’autonomie interne et la fonction formatrice de l’université, en l’inscrivant dans le contexte plus large d’une société de l’apprentissage de la liberté.

Published: July 2020

The emerging novel edible and nutritive electronics indicate an important advance in ingestible and implantable electronics, covering multiple disciplines such as biomedicine, electronics, and nutriology. This review focuses on the feasibility and critical technical problems of fabricating fully edible and nutritive electronics. Recently, a limited number of fully edible and nutritive electronics, operating single functions, have been applied to monitor the condition of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and diagnose its disorders. However, fully edible, nutritive, miniaturized, and well‐functioning electronics with multiple functions are challenging to fabricate. The toxicity of materials used in edible electronics is controllable. The lifetime of edible electronics can be predicted by theoretical and empirical models, and can be tuned by integration strategies. The discipline of edible and nutritive electronics is still in its infancy. In the future, many novel edible materials, integration strategies, and advanced biosensing and wirelessly communicating technologies may be applied to sensing target biomarkers. A more realistic GI tract simulator will be widely used to evaluate the various properties of edible and nutritive electronics rapidly during the process of degradation in the GI tract. Finally, the ethical and legal issues of edible and nutritive electronics will attract more attention.
Population genetics of wild Macaca fascicularis with low‐coverage shotgun sequencing of museum specimens
Authors: Yao Lu , Witt Kelsey , Li Hongjie , Rice Jonathan , Salinas Nelson R. , Martin Robert D. , Huerta‐Sánchez Emilia , Malhi Ripan S.
Published: July 2020

Objectives

Long‐tailed macaques (Macaca fascicularis) are widely distributed throughout the mainland and islands of Southeast Asia, making them a useful model for understanding the complex biogeographical history resulting from drastic changes in sea levels throughout the Pleistocene. Past studies based on mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) of long‐tailed macaque museum specimens have traced their colonization patterns throughout the archipelago, but mitogenomes trace only the maternal history. Here, our objectives were to trace phylogeographic patterns of long‐tailed macaques using low‐coverage nuclear DNA (nDNA) data from museum specimens.

Methods

We performed population genetic analyses and phylogenetic reconstruction on nuclear single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from shotgun sequencing of 75 long‐tailed macaque museum specimens from localities throughout Southeast Asia.

Results

We show that shotgun sequencing of museum specimens yields sufficient genome coverage (average ~1.7%) for reconstructing population relationships using SNP data. Contrary to expectations of divergent results between nuclear and mitochondrial genomes for a female philopatric species, phylogeographical patterns based on nuclear SNPs proved to be closely similar to those found using mitogenomes. In particular, population genetic analyses and phylogenetic reconstruction from the nDNA identify two major clades within M. fascicularis: Clade A includes all individuals from the mainland along with individuals from northern Sumatra, while Clade B consists of the remaining island‐living individuals, including those from southern Sumatra.

Conclusions

Overall, we demonstrate that low‐coverage sequencing of nDNA from museum specimens provides enough data for examining broad phylogeographic patterns, although greater genome coverage and sequencing depth would be needed to distinguish between very closely related populations, such as those throughout the Philippines.
ZIF‐8 MOF Encapsulated Co‐porphyrin, an Efficient Electrocatalyst for Water Oxidation in a Wide pH Range: Works Better at Neutral pH
Authors: Mukhopadhyay Subhabrata , Basu Olivia , Das Samar K.
Published: July 2020

Water oxidation (WO) is the most important and thermodynamically challenging process associated with water splitting. Several metal porphyrins are reported to perform catalytic WO through the central metal but [5,10,15,20‐tetrakis(4‐methoxyphenyl)porphyrinato]cobalt(II) (abbreviated as CoTMPP), which is well‐known for its ability to perform oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), lacks the capacity to perform WO. Here we have successfully activated CoTMPP towards electrochemical WO by means of its in situ encapsulation inside the cavity of a versatile metal organic framework (MOF), known as zeolitic imidazolate framework‐8 (ZIF‐8). The composite, thus prepared i. e., CoTMPP@ZIF‐8 (abbreviated as CTMZ‐8), behaves as a heterogeneous, robust, and efficient electrocatalyst for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) at a wide pH range (from acidic to neutral). Required overpotential (η) of 387.4 mV (neutral pH) and 562.7 mV (pH 2) and high turnover frequency (TOF) of 2.7 s−1 (at neutral pH) make this composite (CTMZ‐8) an efficient electrocatalyst for WO. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of electrocatalytic WO by CoTMPP.
The adolescent athlete's heart; A miniature adult or grown‐up child?
Authors: Pieles Guido E. , Stuart A Graham
Published: July 2020

The systematic development of early age talent in sports academies has led to the professionalization of pediatric sport and the sports physician need to be aware of pediatric cardiological problems. Research into the medical cardiac care and assessment of the pediatric athlete are accumulating, but specific pediatric international guidelines are not available yet and reference data for ECG and echocardiography are incomplete, in particular for the age group <12 years of age. This article is an introduction to the physiological and diagnostics specifics of the pediatric athlete. The focus lies in the differences in presentation and diagnosis between pediatric and adult athletes for the most common pathologies. Reference data for electrical and structural adaptations to intensive exercise are sparse particularly in athletes aged below 12 years old. Training related changes include decrease of resting heart rate, increase of cardiac output, ventricular cavity size, and wall thickness. Cardiac hypertrophy is less pronounced in pediatric athletes, as HR mediated cardiac output increase to endurance exercise is the dominant mechanism in peripubertal children. As in adults, the most pronounced cardiovascular adaptations appear in classical endurance sports like rowing, triathlon, and swimming, but the specifics of pediatric ECG and echocardiographic changes need to be considered.

Few studies have tested how plant quality and the presence of competitors interact in determining how herbivores choose between different leaves within a plant. We investigated this in two herbivorous spider mites sharing tomato plants: Tetranychus urticae, which generally induces plant defenses, and Tetranychus evansi, which suppresses them, creating asymmetrical effects on coinfesting competitors. On uninfested plants, both herbivore species preferred young leaves, coinciding with increased mite performance. On plants with heterospecifics, the mites did not prefer leaves on which they had a better performance. In particular, T. urticae avoided leaves infested with T. evansi, which is in agreement with T. urticae being outcompeted by T. evansi. In contrast, T. evansi did not avoid leaves with the other species, but distributed itself evenly over plants infested with heterospecifics. We hypothesize that this behavior of T. evansi may prevent further spread of T. urticae over the shared plant. Our results indicate that leaf age determines within‐plant distribution of herbivores only in absence of competitors. Moreover, they show that this distribution depends on the order of arrival of competitors and on their effects on each other, with herbivores showing differences in behavior within the plant as a possible response to the outcome of those interactions.

Published: July 2020

A new nanocomposite based on ruthenium nanoparticles (RuNPs) uniformly designed at chemically treated graphene oxide nanosheets (CTGONS) was prepared as active electrode for simultaneously sensing of dopamine (DA) and acetaminophen (AC) in the presence of high concentration of ascorbic acid (AA). The RuNPs actively decorates the CTGONS with uniform dispersion like pump sputtering of paints. The CTGONS of hexagonal nanosheets, 2D orientation, chemically treated to the reduced forms and active decoration by RuNPs lead to formation of high catalytic active sites and high loading of targets at the electrode surface. The suitable accommodation of RuNPs/CTGONS to fast response of targets ascertains a high catalytic activity, and fast charge transport. The RuNPs/CTGONS nanocomposite shows an obvious catalytic oxidation signal for DA and AC. The highly sensitive and selective electrode was designed based on RuNPs/CTGONS due to the large peak potentials separation of DA to AC of 0.22 V with sufficient electron mediating behavior. Moreover, the nanocomposite electrode shows individual and simultaneous determination of DA and AC with linear calibration plots from 5–120 μM and 10–120 μM, where their detection limits were calculated to be 0.018±0.002 and 0.023±0.003 μM, respectively. Finally, the analytical application of the RuNPs/CTGONS electrode was applied for the determination of DA and AC in the serum of human blood.

Objective

This qualitative study explores the ways in which the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) pandemic and associated lockdown measures have affected the lives of adult patients with anorexia nervosa (AN) and their carers.

Method

Semi‐structured interviews were conducted with patients with AN (n = 21) and carers (n = 28) from the start of UK Government imposed lockdown. Data related directly to the impact of lockdown and COVID‐19 were analysed using thematic analysis.

Results

Four broad themes were identified for patients and carers separately. Patients experienced: 1. reduced access to eating disorder (ED) services; 2. disruption to routine and activities in the community; 3. heightened psychological distress and ED symptoms; 4. increased attempts at self‐management in recovery. Carer themes included: 1. concern over provision of professional support for patients; 2. increased practical demands placed on carers in lockdown; 3. managing new challenges around patient wellbeing; 4. new opportunities.

Conclusions

Reduced access to ED services, loss of routine and heightened anxieties and ED symptoms resulting from COVID‐19 and lockdown measures presented challenges for patients and carers. Increased remote support by ED services enabled the continuation of treatment and self‐management resources and strategies promoted self‐efficacy in both groups.
Improved dynamic connection detection power in estimated dynamic functional connectivity considering multivariate dependencies between brain regions

To estimate dynamic functional connectivity (dFC), the conventional method of sliding window correlation (SWC) suffers from poor performance of dynamic connection detection. This stems from the equal weighting of observations, suboptimal time scale, nonsparse output, and the fact that it is bivariate. To overcome these limitations, we exploited the kernel‐reweighted logistic regression (KELLER) algorithm, a method that is common in genetic studies, to estimate dFC in resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs‐fMRI) data. KELLER can estimate dFC through estimating both spatial and temporal patterns of functional connectivity between brain regions. This paper compares the performance of the proposed KELLER method with current methods (SWC and tapered‐SWC (T‐SWC) with different window lengths) based on both simulated and real rs‐fMRI data. Estimated dFC networks were assessed for detecting dynamically connected brain region pairs with hypothesis testing. Simulation results revealed that KELLER can detect dynamic connections with a statistical power of 87.35% compared with 70.17% and 58.54% associated with T‐SWC (p‐value = .001) and SWC (p‐value <.001), respectively. Results of these different methods applied on real rs‐fMRI data were investigated for two aspects: calculating the similarity between identified mean dynamic pattern and identifying dynamic pattern in default mode network (DMN). In 68% of subjects, the results of T‐SWC with window length of 100 s, among different window lengths, demonstrated the highest similarity to those of KELLER. With regards to DMN, KELLER estimated previously reported dynamic connection pairs between dorsal and ventral DMN while SWC‐based method was unable to detect these dynamic connections.
Does employee humility Foster performance and promotability? Exploring the mechanisms of LMX and peer network centrality in China

Published: July 2020

Prior research has shown that humility in the workplace can provide many advantages. However, the literature has largely focused on leaders rather than employees. There is an important distinction between the two, because leaders have already achieved professional success that may or may not be due to humility (i.e., survivorship bias), whereas employees may feel pressure to focus on behaviors seemingly at odds with humility (i.e., getting ahead). Drawing on the social capital theory of career success, this study investigates whether and how humility helps employees achieve both short‐term (job performance) and long‐term (promotability) job success. We posit that, in the Chinese context, humility can promote employees’ objective job performance and promotability by accessing social resources from team leaders and coworkers. The beneficial effects can be explained by the mediating effects of leader–member exchange and employee advice network centrality. We conducted a path comparison on the relationship between the mediators and career success to further explain the mechanisms, and tested the model using a three‐wave survey with a sample of 689 employees and their leaders from 137 teams. Our findings largely support our theoretical predictions and extend our understanding of employee humility and career development.

Distribution and availability of global resources is highly variable over time and heterogeneous in space. With the natural or conventional supply of these resources no longer meeting a growing demand, the need to promote resource efficiency is now being paralleled with innovative approaches to conserve resources within their use cycle. These ‘innovative approaches’ herewith referred to as non‐conventional was the subject of a 10‐weeks extensive discussion among Young Professionals (YPs) in the field of irrigation and drainage. The discussion aligns to a higher objective of breeding a generation of YPs with an open mindset and multi‐disciplinary approach to the challenges in irrigation and drainage. Cutting across development corridors in the water sector, this review paper presents insights on non‐conventional sources of agricultural water management (AWM) as viewed from the lenses of YPs. The discussions underscore the need for broad‐based approaches to resource management, building on the premise that all forms of resources are linked to form a system that provides the most effective service when managed in an integrated fashion. Non‐conventional requires divergent approaches and flexibility; underlining the invaluable capabilities YPs present in AWM. Besides highlighting these roles, insights provided by YPs suggests that feeding a growing population necessitates looking beyond system efficiency to multivariate approaches of resource optimisation and utilisation in the field of irrigation and drainage.
