The Native-Migrant Gap in Job Quality: an Analysis of the French Context Using Decomposition Methods
Authors: Benedetti Ilaria
Published: November 2019

During the last decades the concept of job quality (JQ) and immigrant’s assimilation in the labour market has been highly debated in the social science.This paper aims to contribute to this emerging body of research on subjective job quality indicators as a measure of immigrants’ integration in the French labour market through estimation of the differential between native and migrant workers.Focussing on the gap between native and immigrant workers in the French labour market context, we evaluate job quality with subjective indicators related to the working environment, such as whether or not the job tasks entail health risks, physical strains or other drawbacks.
Predicting Academic Performance Based On Students’ Family Environment: Evidence For Colombia Using Classification Trees
Authors: Garcia Juan David , Skrita Anastasija
Published: November 2019

Family environment, parental economic and social conditions influence students’ academic performance. However, in Colombia, research and methods that have been used to study these variables are rather limited. This research predicts the academic performance of students who took the 2016 State exam for access to higher education (Saber 11) based on observations and characteristics of the students’ families. The data comes from the database of the Colombian Institute Educational Evaluation (ICFES), and classification trees are generated in order to predict academic results. The results show that the family variables that best predict academic results are, respectively, the educational level of the mother, the socioeconomic stratum of the household, the number of books in the home, the educational level of the father and the presence of a computer in the household
A Bayesian Framework for Adsorption Energy Prediction on Bimetallic Alloy Catalysts
Authors: Mamun Osman , Winther Kirsten , Boes Jacob , Bligaard Thomas
Published: November 2019

For high-throughput screening of materials for heterogeneous catalysis, scaling relations provides an efficient scheme to estimate the chemisorption energies of hydrogenated species. However, conditioning on a single descriptor ignores the model uncertainty and leads to sub optimal prediction of the chemisorption energy. In this paper, we extend the single descriptor linear scaling relation to a multi descriptor linear regression models to leverage the correlation between adsorption energy of any two pair of adsorbates. With a large dataset, we use Bayesian Information Criteria (BIC) as the model evidence to select the best linear regression model that are derived from non-informative priors. Furthermore, Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) based on the meaningful convolution of physical properties of the metal-adsorbate complex can be used to predict the baseline residual of the selected model. This integrated Bayesian model selection and Gaussian process regression, dubbed as residual learning, can achieve performance comparable to standard DFT error (0.1 eV) for most adsorbate system. For sparse and small datasets, we propose an ad hoc Bayesian Model Averaging (BMA) approach to make a robust prediction. With this Bayesian framework, we significantly reduce the model uncertainty and improve the prediction accuracy. The possibilities of the framework for high-throughput catalytic materials exploration in a realistic setting is illustrated using large and small sets of both dense and sparse simulated dataset generated from a public database of bimetallic alloys available in Catalysis-Hub.org.
Improving UV Curing in Lignin-Containing Photopolymers for Stereolithography by Chemical Reduction and Acetylation
Authors: Sutton Jordan T. , Rajan Kalavathy , Harper David P. , Chmely Stephen
Published: November 2019

Despite recent successes incorporating lignin into photoactive resins, lignin photo-properties can be detrimental to its application in UV-curable photopolymers, especially to customized, engineered resins for use in stereolithography printing. We report on chemical modification techniques employed to reduce UV absorption in lignin and the resulting mechanical, thermal, and cure properties in these lignin-containing materials. Pine lignin was modified using acetylation and reduction reactions and incorporated into a printable resin formulation. Modified lignin displayed enhanced printing properties because UV absorption at the 3D printable range was reduced in all acylated lignin from 25% up to greater than 60%. Resins made with the modified lignin showed increased stiffness and strength with lower thermal stability. Investigating these techniques is an important step in developing lignin for use in UV-curing applications and furthers the effort to valorize lignin toward commercial use.
Effective Lignin-First Fractionation of Softwood Lignocellulose Using a Mild Dimethyl Carbonate Organosolv Process
Authors: De Santi Alessandra , Galkin Maxim , Lahive Ciaran , Deuss Peter , Barta Katalin
Published: November 2019

Large-scale biorefineries converting lignocellulosic biomass into chemicals, fuels, and energy require a cost-effective pretreatment process that can effectively fractionate all main lignocellulose constituents. A mild organosolv process has been developed using a system of dimethyl carbonate (DMC) and ethylene glycol (EG) as solvent. Softwood biomass (pine, spruce, cedar, and Douglas fir) was fractionated using mild conditions: 140 °C, 40 min, DMC-EG, and sulfuric acid. Organosolv pulping of the softwood biomass usually leads to poor delignification hampering enzymatic cellulose hydrolysis. However, for the developed system, effective pretreatment and subsequent enzymatic cellulose hydrolysis into glucose (up to 84.7%) was observed in combination with a high yield of monomeric hemicellulose sugars and monophenolic compounds from lignin (up to 98% compared to theoretical monomer yield). In sum, effective fractionation and in situ lignin depolymerization was demonstrated for various softwood feedstock combined with limited solvent loss at mild conditions and low reactor pressure.
Quantum Mechanical/Molecular Mechanical investigation of the reduction mechanism of Cysteine Sulfinic acid of Peroxiredoxin via Sulfiredoxin
Authors: Dokainish Hisham , Gauld James
Published: November 2019

The formation of the overoxidized cysteine sulfinic acid in proteins has been connected to be associated with various diseases including cancer and age-related diseases. This post-transitional modification of proteins under oxi- dative stress has been known to be irreversible. However, in eukaryotic, the overoxidation of typical 2-Cys perxoiredoxins (Prxs) to sulfinic acid is reversible via a repair enzyme known as sulfiredoxin (Srx) leading to the regulation of both per- oxide signaling and Prxs chaperon activity. In this study, the molecular modeling techniques including molecular dynam- ics simulations (MD) and the hybrid quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical (QM/MM) approach were used to eluci- date the atomistic details of this unique reaction in sulfur chemistry. Our results support the previous experimentally pro- posed mechanism in which the sulfinic acid oxygen perform an in line direct nucleophilic attack on the γ-phosphate of ATP forming sulfinic acid phosphoryl ester intermediate and ADP, via a low barrier of 16.3 kJ mol-1. Subsequently, the formed intermediate is directly reduced via an SN2 mechanism by the Srx-Cys99 forming thiosulfinate. Our results suggest that the rate-limiting step of the reduction mechanism is associated with the reduction step of the thiosulfinate intermedi- ate. This work significantly improves the current knowledge of this unique reaction, which could contribute to the discov- ery of new groups of antioxidants capable of reducing this irreversible overoxidized state in other proteins.

Lectins are glycan-binding proteins with no catalytic activity and ubiquitously expressed in nature. Numerous bacteria use lectins to efficiently bind to epithelia, thus facilitating tissue colonisation. Wounded skin is one of the preferred niches forPseudomonas aeruginosa, which has developed diverse strategies to impair tissue repair processes and promote infection. Here, we analyse the effect of theP. aeruginosafucose-binding lectin LecB on human keratinocytes and demonstrate that it triggers events in the host, upon binding to fucosylated residues on cell membrane receptors, which extend beyond its role as an adhesion molecule. We found that LecB associates with insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor and dampens its signalling, leading to the arrest of cell cycle. In addition, we describe a novel LecB-triggered mechanism to down-regulate host cell receptors by showing that LecB leads to insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor internalisation and subsequent missorting towards intracellular endosomal compartments, without receptor activation. Overall, these data highlight that LecB is a multitask virulence factor that, through subversion of several host pathways, has a profound impact on keratinocyte proliferation and survival.

Published: November 2019

Airway mucus obstruction is the main cause of morbidity in cystic fibrosis, a disease caused by mutations in the CFTR Cl− channel. Activation of non-CFTR Cl− channels such as TMEM16A can likely compensate for defective CFTR. However, TMEM16A was recently described as a key driver in mucus production/secretion. Here, we have examined whether indeed there is a causal relationship between TMEM16A and MUC5AC production, the main component of respiratory mucus. Our data show that TMEM16A and MUC5AC are inversely correlated during differentiation of human airway cells. Furthermore, we show for the first time that the IL-4–induced TMEM16A up-regulation is proliferation-dependent, which is supported by the correlation found between TMEM16A and Ki-67 proliferation marker during wound healing. Consistently, the notch signaling activator DLL4 increases MUC5AC levels without inducing changes neither in TMEM16A nor in Ki-67 expression. Moreover, TMEM16A inhibition decreased airway surface liquid height. Altogether, our findings demonstrate that up-regulation of TMEM16A and MUC5AC is only circumstantial under cell proliferation, but with no causal relationship between them. Thus, although essential for airway hydration, TMEM16A is not required for MUC5AC production.
The AKT isoforms 1 and 2 drive B cell fate decisions during the germinal center response

Published: November 2019

The PI3K pathway is integral for the germinal center (GC) response. However, the contribution of protein kinase B (AKT) as a PI3K effector in GC B cells remains unknown. Here, we show that mice lacking the AKT1 and AKT2 isoforms in B cells failed to form GCs, which undermined affinity maturation and antibody production in response to immunization. Upon B-cell receptor stimulation, AKT1/2–deficient B cells showed poor survival, reduced proliferation, and impaired mitochondrial and metabolic fitness, which collectively halted GC development. By comparison,Foxo1T24Amutant, which cannot be inactivated by AKT1/2 phosphorylation and is sequestered in the nucleus, significantly enhanced antibody class switch recombination via induction of activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) expression. By contrast, repression of FOXO1 activity by AKT1/2 promoted IRF4-driven plasma cell differentiation. Last, we show that T-cell help via CD40, but not enforced expression of Bcl2, rescued the defective GC response in AKT1/2–deficient animals by restoring proliferative expansion and energy production. Overall, our study provides mechanistic insights into the key role of AKT and downstream pathways on B cell fate decisions during the GC response.

Cannabis consumers in Poland
Authors: Matczak Andrzej , Pawlicki Przemysław Adam
Published: November 2019

The purpose of this study is an attempt to answer the following questions: (1) Is there a regional differentiation of cannabis consumers in Poland? (2) What is the scale of this differentiation? (3) What factors affect this differentiation? Our empirical study is based on the analysis of an anonymous online survey. The coefficient of variation, taxonomic measures of similarity, synthetic index and Spearman correlation coefficient are used in the analysis. It is observed that cannabis consumption in Poland is most popular among men, youth and young adults (Generation Y), as well as among those who are well-educated, relatively well-off and live in cities. The structure of selected demographic and socio-economic features of the respondents is poorly differentiated regionally. Regional differentiation in the structure of cannabis consumption frequency is at an average level. The spatial distribution of features characterizing the respondents is highly consistent with the spatial distribution of city dwellers aged 15–44, their sex and 5-year age ranges, the level of education, the size of cities and the level of gross domestic product.
Canadian Infanticide Legislation, 1948 and 1955: Reflections on the Medicalization/Autopoiesis Debate
Authors: Kramar Kirsten Kathleen , Watson William Dean
Published: November 2019

This article provides a sociological analysis of the discursive interpretations of the criminal law mitigation frameworks underpinning infanticide law in England and Canada. The passage of infanticide legislation by the Canadian Parliament in 1948 and 1955 is described. The account is contrasted with Tony Ward’s analysis of the passage of English legislation in 1922 and 1938. The Canadian legislation of 1948 was based on the English Infanticide Act of 1922. Ward claims that his account shows that, despite obvious appearances and the views of socio-legal commentators writing during the 1980s and ’90s, infanticide law is not an example of the medicalization of women’s deviance but, if anything, more closely exemplifies law as an autopoietic system of communication which “enslaves” medical concepts, adapting them for its own strictly legal purposes. We argue that, while Ward’s critique of the medicalization interpretation of infanticide law is broadly apposite, autopoiesis theory provides an overwrought alternative. This is especially true for the Canadian legislation.

Data collection in this study is through interviews, and documentation. Data were analyzed using qualitative analysis. The results showed that in the process of implementing capacity building for fish business groups through training carried out by the Sinjai Regency Fisheries Office it had ineffective. There are several obstacles faced in the effort to develop the capacity of fish business groups, among others: Development participants have an unequal or heterogeneous background, such as education, work experience, and age. This will complicate and hamper the smoothness and implementation of training and education because of their catching power, perceptions, and reasoning for the lessons given differently. The curriculum that is established and taught is not in accordance with the needs of the trainees, in addition to the duration of the material delivery time is very short. In addition, the continuation of coaching is still lacking because after the training, it is not followed up by providing business capital as one of the problems faced by the group.
Policy Implementation To Arrange The Street Vendors By The Government of Denpasar City, Bali Province
Authors: Wisnumurti Anak Agung Gede Oka , Suasih Ni Nyoman Reni
Published: November 2019

Street vendors are informal types of work (small businesses) that arise primarily in urban areas, carried out by low-income people (daily salaries), have limited capital, and consist of only one worker (self employed). The presence of street vendors in various major cities in Indonesia, including in Denpasar City, has become a dilemma that creates pro-contra, and has the potential to clash between citizens and officials of government. This is because street vendors sell their wares in public places that are considered strategic, thus disrupting public order, and other public peace. On the other hand, according to one of the SDG’s programs, the government has an obligation to realize decent work for everyone. In the effort of structuring street vendors, as well as helping small traders of economic actors in the informal sector, the government of Denpasar City issues Denpasar City Local Law No. 2 of the year 2015 about Street Vendors. Therefore, an analysis is needed to find out the implementation of Denpasar City Local Law No. 2 of the year 2015, as well as to find out the supporting factors and inhibiting factors of its implementation. This research is a qualitative descriptive study, where the data obtained through the process of observation, interviews, and documentation studies. Selection of informants through purposive sampling technique, and data analysis techniques using Merilee S. Grindle's theory of policy implementation and contingency theory by James Lester. The results of the analysis show that the implementation of Denpasar City Local Law No. 2 of the year 2015 for arranging street vendors is still faced with several obstacles such as: lack of location according to allotment, lack of adequate budget, evaluation that is rarely done, and sanctions that are not in accordance with what is written in the Regional Regulation and the lack of understanding of street vendors on the local law. An interesting finding is that it turns out that governemtn of villages and custom village have an important role in organizing street vendors in their areas.

This study aims to examine the effect of credit position and third party funds on bank profits both partially and simultaneously. The next goal is also to find out whether non-performing loans can be a mediator between the influence of credit positions and third party funds on bank profits. The research was conducted at the rural Bank in Lumajang consisting of 6 (six) banks. The analytical technique used is path analysis by testing the first substructure and the second substructure. Samples in the form of quarterly reports as many as 6 periods from 2015 to 2017, so the number of samples is 36 quarterly reports. The results of the study state that the credit position has a significant effect on non-performing loans, third party funds have no significant effect on non-performing loans, simultaneously the position of credit and third party funds have a significant effect on non-performing loans. The next result is the position of credit, third party funds, and non-performing loans does not have a significant effect on bank profits, but simultaneously all three have a significant effect on bank profits. Non-performing loans apparently also cannot be a mediator of the influence of credit positions and third party funds on bank profits. Future research is expected to examine other variables that influence bank profits

Epiphytic lichen communities with Lobaria pulmonaria are described and two new associations are distinguished in the Southern Urals. Communities of the ass. Anaptychio ciliaris—Lobarietum pulmonariae (diagnostic species: Anaptychia ciliaris, Bacidia rubella, Cladonia parasitica, Collema nigrescens, C. occultatum, Loxospora elatina, Lobaria pulmonaria, Leskeella nervosa, Leucodon sciuroides, Melanelia subargentifera, Nephroma parile, Physconia detersa, Parmelina tiliacea, Ramalina pollinaria) occur on the bark of Tilia cordata, Acer platanoides, and Ulmus glabra trees in broad-leaved forests, and those of the ass. Cetrario laureri—Lobarietum pulmonariae (diagnostic species: Cetraria laureri, Hypogymnia tubulosa, H. vittata, Lobaria pulmonaria, Parmelia saxatilis, Pertusaria albescens, Sanionia uncinata, Usnea hirta, U. lapponica, U. subfloridana) were described on the Sorbus aucuparia bark in spruce-dominated mountain forests. The presence of Lobaria pulmonaria, Collema nigrescens, C. occultatum, and Nephroma parile indicates floristic relationships between the described communities and the European alliance Lobarion pulmonariae. Howe­ver, communities with Lobaria pulmonaria in the Southern Urals differ from the European ones of the alliance Lobarion in the presence of Bacidia rubella, Cladonia parasitica, C. fimbriata, Hypogymnia vittata, Melanelia subargentifera, Phaeophyscia hirsuta, P. orbicularis, Physcia aipolia, Physconia detersa, P. distorta, P. perisidiosa, Ramalina pollinaria, Usnea hirta, U. lapponica as well as in the absence of Antitrichia curtipendula, Frullania dilatata, F. tamarisci, ­Hypnum cupressiforme, Isothecium myurum, Lobaria amplissima, Metzgeria furcata, Nephroma bellum, Normandina pulchella, Orthotrichum lyellii, Melanelia fuli­ginosa, Parmeliella triptophylla, Peltigera collina, Pertusaria amara, Phlyctis argenta, Platismatia glauca, Pterigynandrum filiforme and several other species, characteristic of the European communities of the alliance Lobarion. The climate in the Southern Urals is more continental, if compared to the Central-European one, and this fact probably explains such a pronounced floristic peculiarity of the associations described. Still the ass. Anaptychio ciliaris—Lobarietum pulmonariae may be preliminary assigned to the alliance Lobarion pulmonariae Ochsner 1928, whereas the ass. Cetrario laureri—Lobarietum pulmonariae is subordinated to the alliance Pseudevernion furfuraceae Barkman 1958.
Marginal and average prices of land lots should not be equal: A critique of Glaeser and Gyourko’s method for identifying residential price effects of town planning regulations
Authors: Murray Cameron
Published: November 2019

Glaeser and Gyourko’s (2003) (henceforth G&G’s) method of measuring the gap between marginal and average land prices of housing lots has become a popular way of demonstrating the degree to which planning controls, or “regulatory taxes”, increase residential land prices. This has led policy-makers across the globe to focus on town planning as a critical determinant of rising home prices. We show, however, that G&G’s method shows no such thing. Instead, the price gap is a product of the location premium of land, diminishing returns to buyers of residential land size, and historical city development patterns.Numerous shortcomings are identified in their theoretical model, including that (1) they ignore that development happens over time, (2) their “regulatory tax” is simply the location value of land, (3) they reason inconsistency about the source of land prices, arguing that land at the margins is scarce but locations for a whole housing lots are not, and (4) there are no optimal lot sizes nor subdivision incentives in their model. Standard price-taking models of residential land markets that recognise that locations are scarce contain none of these limitations and provide a better interpretation of land price patterns.Empirically, we show that G&G’s method finds a high “regulatory tax” even in the absence of regulatory constraints using both simulated suburb development scenarios and historical land sales data from colonial Australia and ancient Mesopotamia. In short, there is no information regarding the effect of planning controls on the supply of new dwellings in a comparison of marginal and average land prices and this method should not be relied upon to inform planning and housing policy decisions.
