Objectives: To evaluate the clinical pathological characteristics of patients with operable Her2_low breast cancer treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy and to identify clinicopathological variables related to survival. Methods: Observational, retrospective study in patients with operable Her2-negative breast cancer (Her2_low and Her2_zero) treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy at Clínica Vida (Medellín) between 2013-2016. Clinical and pathological characteristics, response rates are described, and disease-free survival and overall survival were estimated between the Her2_low and Her2_zero subgroups. Results: 185 Her2_negative operable breast cancer patients treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy were included. 80 patients (43.2%) were Her2_low subtypes, of these, 72% were luminal/Her2_low subtypes. There were no significant differences between stage T, stage N, histological grade, hormone receptor status between the Her2_zero Vs Her2_low groups. The pathologic complete response rate was similar between the Her2_low Vs Her2_zero subgroups. With a median follow-up of 79.6 months, DFS and OS are similar between subgroups of the Her2-negative population. Her2_low patients without progesterone receptor expression and ypN+ disease were associated with higher mortality rates. Conclusions: Her2-negative breast cancer subtype Her2_low appears to have a similar clinical course to the Her2-negative (0) population treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Residual ypN+ disease and progesterone receptor expression have prognostic value in Her2_low breast cancer treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Authors: Cordoba Pulido Natalia , Rodriguez Prieto Laura Katherine
Published: December 2024

Chylothorax and chylous ascites are rare pathologies, with a high rate of mortality if untreated promptly, mostly associated with an active oncology disease.  In the current evidence, we found just a few case reports and observational studies.  Clinical case: We report a case of a 66-year-old woman, who presents with a chylothorax and possible chylous ascites, CT scan showed para- aortic mass and immunohistochemical analysis showed a follicular lymphoma. Regarding the chylothorax, we discuss the diversity of their clinical characteristics, limitations of the diagnosis, treatment possibilities and facilitating pathophysiological mechanisms. Conclusion: In the context of non-traumatic chylothorax, clinical suspicion, early diagnosis and timely management are essential given the high mortality described when left untreated.

The impact of aerosol on cloud water: a heuristic perspective
Authors: Hoffmann Fabian , Glassmeier Franziska , Feingold Graham
Published: December 2024

Abstract. Aerosol–cloud interactions modulate the role of clouds in Earth's climate. We derive, evaluate, and apply a simple model to understand aerosol-mediated cloud water adjustments in stratocumulus based on only two prognostic equations for the integrated cloud water L and droplet number concentration N. The model is solved numerically and analytically and agrees well with documented large-eddy-simulation data and satellite retrievals. A tight relationship between adjustments at low and high N is found, revealing the influence of non-precipitation processes (primarily entrainment) on adjustments in precipitating clouds. Furthermore, it is shown that adjustments in non-precipitating clouds tend to be positively biased by external L or N perturbations, while adjustments in precipitating clouds are barely susceptible. By deliberately reducing the complexity of the underlying system, this study constitutes a way forward to facilitate process-level understanding of cloud water adjustments.
Technical note: Quantified organic aerosol subsaturated hygroscopicity by a simple optical scatter monitor system through field measurements

Published: December 2024

Abstract. The hygroscopicity of organic aerosol (κOA) plays a crucial role in cloud droplet activation and aerosol–radiation interactions. This study investigated the viability of an optical scatter monitor system, featuring two nephelometric monitors (pDR-1500), to determine κOA after knowing the aerosol chemical composition. This system was operated during a mobile lab deployment on Long Island in the summer of 2023, which was executed to coordinate with the Atmospheric Emissions and Reactions Observed from Megacities to Marine Areas (AEROMMA) field campaign. The derived κOA under subsaturated high-humidity conditions (RH between 85 % and 95 %) were categorized based on different aerosol sources, including wildfire aerosol, urban aerosol, and aerosol from rural conditions. The κOA and the OA
O:C ratio exhibited linear positive relationships for the urban aerosol and the aerosol from rural conditions, with a much higher slope (0.50 vs. 0.24) for the latter. However, there was no clear relationship between κOA and the OA O:C ratio observed during each period affected by wildfire plumes. The system proposed here could be widely applied alongside the current aerosol component measurement systems, providing valuable insights into the large-scale spatial and temporal variations in OA hygroscopicity.
Intended and Unintended Consequences of Atmospheric Methane Oxidation Enhancement
Authors: Horowitz Hannah Marie
Published: December 2024

Abstract. Atmospheric oxidation enhancement (AOE) of methane via either tropospheric hydroxyl radicals (OH) or chlorine (Cl) radicals is being considered as a method to decrease greenhouse gas concentrations. The chemistry involved is coupled; is nonlinear; and affects air quality, other greenhouse gases, and ozone-depleting substances. Here I perform a suite of experiments in a three-dimensional (3D) atmospheric chemistry model representing different OH- and Cl-based atmospheric oxidation enhancement methods, to estimate the effectiveness of each at decreasing greenhouse gases and the impacts on air quality and stratospheric ozone. I find that iron salt aerosol may not be effective at reducing methane on a global scale, depending on the reaction mechanism employed. More work is needed to understand the kinetics of chlorine release from iron salt aerosol and the potential for bromine co-release, which further decreases effectiveness. Hydrogen peroxide–based approaches can decrease global methane, but the hydrogen peroxide emissions required may be too large to be feasible. I find that limiting emissions to daytime for hydrogen peroxide–based scenarios has negligible effects. All methods increase surface particulate matter (PM) pollution and in some regions lead to exceedances of annual air quality standards. Cl-based methods decrease ozone air pollution, but OH-based methods increase ozone air pollution in populated areas. While Cl-based methods can increase ozone-depleting substances, I predict minimal changes in stratospheric ozone after 1 year of deployment. The overall impacts of atmospheric oxidation enhancement methods on climate and human health involve multiple competing factors.
Decreasing foraminiferal flux in response to ongoing climate change in the Santa Barbara Basin, California
Authors: Havard Emily , Cherry Katherine , Benitez-Nelson Claudia , Tappa Eric , Davis Catherine V.
Published: December 2024

Abstract. The rapid response of foraminiferal assemblages to changing climate makes their shells an invaluable geological record of the past. However, the time frame over which foraminifera respond to climatic signals and the specific drivers influencing assemblage composition and abundance remain obscure. We focus on the impact of ongoing, anthropogenic climate change on planktic foraminifera in the California Current ecosystem, which would appear as a nearly instantaneous event in the sediment record. The Santa Barbara Basin sediment trap, located off the coast of California, USA since 1993, provides a 28-year record of particulate and foraminiferal flux to the basin’s seafloor. The sediment trap captures the superposition of the annual cycle of seasonal upwelling, Pacific multiannual El Niño-Southern Oscillation-driven temperature changes, and anthropogenically forced climate change. We present data on planktic foraminiferal flux collected between 2014–2021, at two-week intervals (164 samples, 60,006 individuals) and compare results to previously published data from 1993–1998. Consistent with previous studies, the most abundant species from 2014–2021 were Globigerina bulloides, Neogloboquadrina incompta, and Turborotalita quinqueloba, with peak fluxes occurring in the spring and summer. Lower fluxes and an increase in the abundance of N. incompta and subtropical species characterize the winter season. We find a 37.9 % decrease in total foraminiferal flux relative to the 1990s, primarily driven by a decrease in G. bulloides abundance. This decrease is accompanied by a 21.9 % overall reduction in calcium carbonate flux. We also find a decrease in the relative abundance of subtropical species (Globigerinoides ruber, Orbulina universa, Neogloboquadrina dutertrei) and their fluxes compared to the 1990s, contrary to expectations if assemblages and fluxes were to follow anthropogenic warming signals. We hypothesize that the observed decrease in subtropical species abundance and flux is likely related to an increase in acidification and in the timing and magnitude of upwelling along the California coast. The extremely rapid responses of foraminifera to ongoing changes in carbonate chemistry and temperature suggest that climate change is already having a meaningful impact on coastal carbon cycling. The observed decrease in particulate inorganic carbon (PIC) flux relative to particulate organic carbon (POC) flux may facilitate increased oceanic uptake of atmospheric CO2.
Software sustainability of global impact models
Authors: Nyenah Emmanuel , Döll Petra , Katz Daniel S. , Reinecke Robert
Published: December 2024

Abstract. Research software for simulating Earth processes enables the estimation of past, current, and future world states and guides policy. However, this modelling software is often developed by scientists with limited training, time, and funding, leading to software that is hard to understand, (re)use, modify, and maintain and that is, in this sense, non-sustainable. Here we evaluate the sustainability of global-scale impact models across 10 research fields. We use nine sustainability indicators for our assessment. Five of these indicators – documentation, version control, open-source license, provision of software in containers, and the number of active developers – are related to best practices in software engineering and characterize overall software sustainability. The remaining four – comment density, modularity, automated testing, and adherence to coding standards – contribute to code quality, an important factor in software sustainability. We found that 29 % (32 out of 112) of the global impact models (GIMs) participating in the Inter-Sectoral Impact Model Intercomparison Project were accessible without contacting the developers. Regarding best practices in software engineering, 75 % of the 32 GIMs have some kind of documentation, 81 % use version control, and 69 % have an open-source license. Only 16 % provide the software in a containerized form, which can potentially limit result reproducibility. Four models had no active development after 2020. Regarding code quality, we found that models suffer from low code quality, which impedes model improvement, maintenance, reusability, and reliability. Key issues include a non-optimal comment density in 75 % of the GIMs, insufficient modularity in 88 % of the GIMs, and the absence of a testing suite in 72 % of the GIMs. Furthermore, only 5 out of 10 models for which the source code, either in part or in its entirety, is written in Python show good compliance with PEP8 coding standards, with the rest showing low compliance. To improve the sustainability of GIMs and other research software, we recommend best practices for sustainable software development to the scientific community. As an example of implementing these best practices, we show how reprogramming a legacy model using best practices has improved software sustainability.
Current status of water-related planning for climate change adaptation in the Spree river basin, Germany
Authors: Arndt Saskia , Heiland Stefan
Published: December 2024

Abstract. Fuelled by climate change, low flows, heavy rain and flooding will likely intensify in the future, adding to the pressures experienced by rivers in western and central Europe in recent decades. To meet these challenges, comprehensive water-related adaptation to climate change is indispensable. Based on the case study of the Spree river basin in Germany, this study analysed legally defined plans for water management, spatial planning and landscape planning for their current status of integrated climate change adaptation. To pre-structure the document analysis, eight water management fields of action for adaptation to climate change were identified using official recommendations for action. A total of 39 % of the 28 plans analysed specify objectives and measures for adapting to climate change. Of these, 55 % address the diverse impacts of climate change in a more comprehensive way, including prevention and mitigation of droughts and floods, as well as protection of water ecosystems and groundwater resources. Filling these planning gaps may include more frequent updating of plans, a greater focus on evidence from informal plans, multifunctional measures, and the adaptation of best-practice examples for the systematic integration of climate change impacts and adaptation. Planning and implementing comprehensive climate change adaptation will strengthen the resilience of ecosystems and secure human livelihoods.

Abstract. Natural hazards have serious impacts worldwide on society, economy, and environment. In Vietnam, throughout the years, natural hazards have caused significant loss of lives as well as severe devastation to houses, crops, and transportation. This research presents a new approach to multi-hazard (floods and wildfires) exposure estimates using machine learning models, Google Earth Engine, and spatial analysis tools for a typical case study in the province of Quang Nam in Central Vietnam. A geospatial database is built for multiple-hazard modeling, including an inventory of climate-related hazards (floods and wildfires), topography, geology, hydrology, climate features (temperature, rainfall, wind), land use, and building data for exposure assessment. The susceptibility of each hazard is first modeled and then integrated into a multi-hazard exposure matrix to demonstrate a hazard profiling approach to multi-hazard risk assessment. The results are explicitly illustrated for flood and wildfire hazards and the exposure of buildings. Susceptibility models using the random forest approach provide model accuracy of AUC (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve) = 0.882 and 0.884 for floods and wildfires, respectively. The flood and wildfire hazards are combined within a semi-quantitative matrix to assess the building exposure to different hazards. Digital multi-hazard exposure maps of floods and wildfires aid the identification of areas exposed to climate-related hazards and the potential impacts of hazards. This approach can be used to inform communities and regulatory authorities on where to develop and implement long-term adaptation solutions.

New locality information is also given for the species Alloxysta victrix (Westwood, 1833), Synergus pallipes Hartig, 1840, Synergus physocerus Hartig, 1843, and Diplolepis spinosissimae (Giraud, 1859).
Genetic Insights and Phylogenetic Relationships of Lycorma delicatula (Hemiptera: Fulgoridae, 1845) Revealed Through Mitochondrial Genome Sequence Analysis
Authors: CHENG Shi , WANG Yuni
Published: December 2024

Lycorma delicatula, a phytophagous agricultural pest, is invading various regions across the globe. We employed the mitochondrial genome and mitochondrial marker NADH dehydrogenase subunit 2 (ND2) to elucidate the mitochondrial genome characterization and phylogenetic relationships. The mitochondrial genome revealed a circular mitochondrial structure with a length of 16 138 bp encompassing 37 genes and a GC% of 23.41%. Codon usage preferences exhibited significant variation, with A or U being the most preferred bases in the third codon position. Most tRNAs displayed a typical cloverleaf structure, while a few exhibited base mismatches, primarily in G-U pairs. Phylogenetic analysis using the ND2 genes indicated that the population in northwest China could be tightly near together, with a genetic distance ranging from 0 to 0.01. Speculations arising from the mitochondrial genome analysis suggest that species from northern China were closer relatives to invaders from other regions, Lycorma meliae emerged as a close relative of Lycorma delicatula among the Hemipterans. Collectively, our findings enhance the understanding of phylogenetic relationships and complement the mitochondrial genomic information of Lycorma delicatula, thereby contributing valuable data for subsequent studies on this pest species.

Published: December 2024

The term social entrepreneurship is used to refer to the rapidly growing number of organizations that have been created for the benefit of society. Social entrepreneurs have created models for efficiently catering to basic human needs that existing markets and institutions have failed to satisfy. Social entrepreneurship combines the resourcefulness of traditional entrepreneurship with a mission to change society. Social entrepreneurship offers insights that may stimulate ideas for more socially acceptable and sustainable business strategies and organizational forms. Because it contributes directly to internationally recognized sustainable development goals, social entrepreneurship may also encourage established corporations to take on greater social responsibility. Akhuwat is an organization established to contribute to society in several dimensions that are associated with economic and social aspects. The mission of Akhuwat is to reduce poverty in the country. The paper will argue that social entrepreneurship ventures such as Akhuwat are able to overcome the hurdles to socio-economic and sustainable development in poor countries by building necessary infrastructure, creating social capabilities to respond to economic opportunity and discovering and creating the conditions for scaling up and for financial viability. Thus, this paper will highlight the impact of Akhuwat in reducing poverty and enhancing economic and social status of the beneficiaries of Akhuwat.

Published: December 2024

Streptococcus gordonii, an early colonizing bacterium, can pave the way for subsequent oral health complications. Some studies suggest that S. gordonii may possess a mild cariogenic effect, as it facilitates the attachment of Streptococcus mutans to tooth surfaces. Biofilm adherence is the first stage in the biofilm formation process, while glycolytic pH is a crucial aspect of bacterial physiology. Numerous herbal antimicrobial agents have been investigated as alternatives to inhibit both biofilm adherence and glycolytic pH regulation in bacteria. One such agent is epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). Previous literature has demonstrated the effectiveness of EGCG in inhibiting biofilm adherence and glycolytic pH reduction in S. mutans. This study aimed to investigate whether EGCG affects biofilm adherence and glycolytic pH in S. gordonii when cultured in Brain Heart Infusion Broth (BHIB) media. In vitro experiments were conducted using four groups of samples subjected to five treatments. The normal control group included BHIB + S. gordonii, the negative control group comprised BHIB + S. gordonii + 5% sucrose, and the treatment group comprised BHIB + S. gordonii + 5% sucrose with varying EGCG concentrations (0.03, 0.06, and 0.12 mg/mL). EGCG reduced the adherence of S. gordonii and increased glycolytic pH at an effective inhibitory concentration of 0.03 mg/mL. EGCG influences both biofilm adherence and glycolytic pH in S. gordonii.
Improving Data Transfer Performance to Unlock Potential of Cloud Service Providers
Authors: Harikrishna Bommala
Published: December 2024

Efficient data transfer among CSPs is essential for the performance of cloud computing's basic operations, such as migration and disaster recovery. In this research, a novel approach to enhance data transmission performance using DTNs is presented. Using DTNs wisely, the proposed method enhances the speed and reliability of sending huge volumes of data across several CSPs. Coordinating local and remote copy operations is also a part of the process as well as a mechanism for DTN-to-DTN transfers. Optimized network settings with NFS connections maximized data transfer speed. In order to optimize the network, we carried out a battery of experiments to determine the best setting by varying network buffer size, synchronous and asynchronous modes, among others. With asynchronous modes and the best possible NFS settings, results showed a dramatic improvement in data transmission speed.

An increase in the metal-bone conflict due to the different densities of these substances can lead to weakening and displacement of the implant during implantation of pedicle screw systems, which leads to the appearance of pain syndrome and loss of the obtained correction in patients with various spinal pathologies after transpedicular fixation.The purpose of this study is to evaluate a new technique for preventing loosening of transpedicular screws and an evidence-based demonstration of the results of computer modeling.Methods. The proposed method was experimentally modeled using the Solid Works computer program and applied in practice. The application technique was developed and described in 42 patients aged 13-65 years in the period 2014-2018 with various spinal pathologies. A total of 22 (68.75%) women, 20 (31.25%) men. The patients underwent operations using transpedicular systems of various configurations. To prevent spontaneous screw displacement in the late postoperative period, a method was proposed to create an additional support point by passing a transverse connector through a transverse hole made in the spinous process of the vertebra.Results. Two situations were considered. In the first case, a fixed vertebra with a classic transverse connector and applied driving forces pull the screws out of the vertebral body in eight different directions. The second case was similar to the first, with a difference in the connection through the spinous process of the vertebra. In both groups, the displacement distance increases with an increase in the angle of the applied force vector. The force with which the screws exited the canal was 26.561 N/mm2 (MPa). In the second case, it was 31.095 N/mm2 (MPa). The difference was 5 N/mm2.Conclusions. A method for creating an additional support point for transpedicular systems by passing a transverse connector through the spinous process of the vertebra, tested statically, increases the stability of transpedicular systems.

Now-a-days AI, cloud computing, and big data are integrated into the best project management practices. While all the phases of a project have varying rates for the adoption of IT solution, AI is adopted 70% in the execution phase and 85% in monitoring and control. Thus, cloud computing shows excellent use in all the stages of a project with an 85% adoption rate during execution and 90% in Monitoring & Control. On the other hand, IoT solutions have a penetration rate of about 40-60% in all stages. In comparative analysis, project success rates show that Agile projects outperformed traditional methodologies, as in the period when the percentages grew from 70% in 2018 to 85% in 2022, while traditional methods moved from just 60% to 68% within this period. This would enable the Agile methodologies, along with the use of associated IT tools in providing superior project outcomes. Some major benefits of IT solution integrations are efficiency: AI-85%, Cloud-75%-; collaboration: Cloud-90%, AI-65%-; and risk reduction: AI-80%, Big Data-75%- which shows how these tools fit into achieving success in projects.

Introduction: Despite the broad improvement in air quality, air pollution remains a major leading global risk factor for ill health and deaths each year. Air pollution has a significant impact on both health and economic growth in Africa. This paper reviews the health impacts of air pollution and the benefits of air pollution mitigation and prevention on climate change.
Methods: We conducted a narrative review and synthesized current literature on the health impact of air pollution in the context of changing climate in Africa.
Results: Particulate matter (PM2.5) concentrations in Africa pose significant health risks due to various sources, including household fuels and industrial emissions. Limited air quality monitoring hampers accurate assessment and public health planning. Africa’s rapid urbanization exacerbates air pollution, impacting vulnerable populations disproportionately. Renewable energy adoption and improved monitoring infrastructure are crucial for mitigating air pollution’s economic and health impacts. Recommendations include adopting air quality standards, identifying pollution sources, and prioritizing interventions for vulnerable groups. Integrating renewable energy into development plans is essential for sustainable growth. African leaders must prioritize environmental policies to safeguard public health amid ongoing industrialization.
Conclusions: Air pollution prevention remains a vital concern that requires leaders to engage stakeholders, and other opinion leaders in society. African leaders should proactively explore new avenues to integrate non‑polluting renewable energy sources such as solar power, wind and hydropower into their national development plans.
