Terrestrial Fauna from Cavities in Northern and Central Slovenia, and a Review of Systematically Ecologically Investigated Cavities
Authors: Novak Tone 
Published: April 2020

In the years 1977-2001, the fauna of and ecological conditions in 55 cavities – caves and artificial tunnels – in northern and central Slovenia were systematically investigated. Zoogeographically, this is the meeting point of the Alpine, Pannonian and Dinaric biome. This article lists 321 terrestrial genera, 456 species and 100 subspecies belonging to 183 families, that had been recorded by 2005 in cavities of this region in the course of our own investigations, and that have been cited in the references. This taxonomical review serves as a foundation for understanding ecological and other treatise on the terrestrial fauna in the hypogean habitats of northern and central Slovenia, those that have been published ones, as well as those in preparation. The overview of the systematically investigated cavities, and the review of the methods and techniques used has been added to provide general information about the morphology of these caves, and the ecological research within them. V letih 1977-2001 smo sistematsko raziskovali kopensko favno in ekološke razmere v 55 votlinah – jamah in izkopanih rovih – severne in osrednje Slovenije. Zoogeografsko je to ozemlje na stičišču alpskega, panonskega in deloma dinarskega bioma. V članku je pregled 321 rodov, 456 vrst in 100 podvrst živali iz 183 družin, ki so bile do leta 2005 najdene v votlinah tega območja med lastnimi raziskavami ter po podatkih iz citirane literature. Taksonomski pregled je osnova in opora za razumevanje ekoloških ter drugih razprav o kopenski favni v podzemeljskih habitatih severne in osrednje Slovenije, ki so že objavljene in ki jih pripravljamo. V nadaljevanju so predstavljene votline, v katerih so potekale sistematske ekološke raziskave, ter naštete uporabljene metode in tehnike, s čimer je omogočen vpogled v morfologijo ekološko raziskanih votlin ter metode raziskovanja

Face au succès des études urbaines s’appuyant sur Twitter, l’article vise à approfondir la fabrique de la donnée géolocalisée sur cette plateforme. À partir d’un cas d’étude réalisé sur les tweets localisés à Paris pendant l’année 2016, il livre une analyse sociotechnique des mécanismes de production et de représentation des tweets géolocalisés. En prenant en compte les interactions entre aspects techniques et sociaux, il souligne les effets de sens produits par la matérialité du dispositif et met en discussion l’emploi récent des données géolocalisées comme traces numériques de l’agir social et, plus particulièrement, le concept de « soi spatial ».
De la production à la maintenance : faire exister collectivement des données géographiques ouvertes
Authors: Denis Jérôme , Marquet Clément 
Published: April 2020

L’article décrit les différentes étapes qui ont ponctué la collaboration entre les équipes de Transilien et celles d’OpenStreetMap France dans l’élaboration d’une base de données géographique ouverte cartographiant les gares du réseau d’Île-de-France. Il montre que les partenaires de ce projet se sont confrontés à une série d’épreuves qui les a progressivement conduits à reconsidérer la place des données qu’ils souhaitaient rendre disponibles, à trouver les moyens d’équiper le travail des données lui-même, mais aussi à se réorganiser au fil du temps. De la redéfinition des conditions de production des données jusqu’à la prise en compte des modalités de leur maintenance, ces épreuves mettent en lumière l’épaisseur sociotechnique des données géographiques destinées à être « ouvertes » et du travail sur lequel repose leur existence et leur disponibilité. Ce cas invite à prêter attention aux formes de coopération qui s’inventent lors de la fabrique des données et qui font émerger des possibles alternatifs pour la gouvernance numérique des territoires.

Cet article examine le pétitionnement en ligne à partir de l’analyse des données du site lapetition.be, soit plus de 12 000 pétitions ayant récolté 3,25 millions de signatures. L’hétérogénéité textuelle des données collectées (inscrites par les internautes et générées par le dispositif) a été appréhendée à la fois comme traces des contraintes du dispositif et de ses modalités d’appropriation, et également comme caractéristiques de l’acte de pétitionnement et de sa pluralité. L’analyse des textes d’appels des pétitions fait apparaître leurs traits saillants (formes d’adresse, lexique, énonciation) au regard des rubriques et du nombre de signatures. L’analyse des commentaires met au jour la diversité des raisons qui conduisent à signer une pétition et éclaire la pluralité de l’acte de pétitionnement.
Relationship of Antimicrobial Control Policies and Hospital and Infection Control Characteristics to Antimicrobial Resistance Rates
Authors: Larson Elaine L. , Quiros Dave , Giblin Tara , Lin Susan 
Published: April 2020

• Background Antibiotic misuse and noncompliance with infection control precautions have contributed to increasing levels of antimicrobial resistance in hospitals.
• Objectives To assess the extent to which resistance is monitored in infection control programs and to correlate resistance rates with characteristics of antimicrobial control policies, provider attitudes and practices, and systems-level indicators of implementation of the hand hygiene guideline of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
• MethodsAn on-site survey of intensive care unit staff and infection control directors of 33 hospitals in the United States was conducted. The following data were collected: antimicrobial control policies; rates during the previous 12 months of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, vancomycin-resistant enterococci, and ceftazidime-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae; an implementation score of systems-level efforts to implement the guideline; staff attitudes toward practice guidelines; and observations of staff hand hygiene. Variables associated with resistance rates were examined for independent effects by using logistic regression.
• ResultsResistance rates for S aureus, enterococci, and K pneumoniae were 52.5%, 18.2%, and 16.0%, respectively. Ten (30.3%) hospitals had an antibiotic control policy. No statistically significant correlation was observed between staff attitudes toward practice guidelines, observed hand hygiene behavior, or having an antibiotic use policy and resistance rates. In logistic regression analysis, higher scores on measures of systems-level efforts to implement the guideline were associated with lower rates of resistant S aureus and enterococci (P=.046).
• Conclusions Organizational-level factors independent of the practices of individual clinicians may be associated with rates of antimicrobial resistance.
Sporadic Early Life Solder Ball Detachment Effects on Subsequent Microstructure Evolution and Fatigue of Solder Joints in Wafer-Level Chip-Scale Packages

Abstract
The combination of continuous miniaturization of electronics and the demanding reliability requirements for industrial and automotive electronics is one big challenge for emerging packaging technology. One aspect is to increase the understanding of the damage under environmental loading. Therefore, the solder joints of a wafer-level chip-scale package assembled on a printed circuit board (PCB) have been analyzed after a temperature cycling test. In the case of the investigated package, a limited number of joints did not form a proper mechanical connection with the PCB copper pad. Although not intended in the first place, these circumstances cause a detachment of those joints within the first few thermal cycles. However, this constellation offers a unique opportunity to compare the solder joint microstructure after thermomechanical loading (connected joints) with pure thermal loading (detached joints) located directly next to each other. It is shown that microstructure aging effects can be directly linked to regions in the joint with increased loading. This is particularly the case for detached joints, which could almost retain their initial microstructure up to the effect of the high-temperature part of the thermal profile. By means of finite element simulation, it is further possible to quantify the increased loading on adjacent joints if isolated solder balls detach from the board. In one case presented, the lifetime of the corner joint was calculated to reduce up to 85% only.

Published: April 2020

Background
Individual and collective self are two fundamental self-representations and are important to human experience. The present study aimed to investigate whether individual and collective self have essential difference in neural mechanism.

Methods
Event-related potentials were recorded to explore the electrophysiological correlates of individual and collective self in a self-referential task in which participants were asked to evaluate whether trait adjectives were suitable to describe themselves (individual self-referential processing), a famous person (individual non-self-referential processing), Chinese (collective self-referential processing) or American (collective non-self-referential processing).

Results
At the early stages, results showed that larger P2 and smaller N2 amplitudes were elicited by individual self-referential than by individual non-self-referential processing whereas no significant differences were observed between collective self-referential and collective non-self-referential processing at these stages. In addition, at the late P3 stage (350–600 ms), larger P3 amplitudes were also elicited by individual self-referential than by individual non-self-referential processing during 350–600 ms interval. However, the collective self-reference effect, indicated by the differences between collective self-referential and collective non-self-referential processing, did not appear until 450 ms and extended to 600 ms. Moreover, individual self-reference effect was more pronounced than collective self-reference effect in the 350–500 ms interval, whereas individual and collective self-reference effect had no significant difference in the 500–600 ms interval. These findings indicated that the time courses of neural activities were different in processing individual and collective self.

Published: April 2020

AbstractLithium–sulfur (Li–S) batteries are promising next‐generation rechargeable batteries due to thier high energy density, low cost, and environmental friendliness. However, the extremely low electrical conductivity of sulfur and the dissolution of polysulfides limit their actual electrochemical performances, especially in the case of high sulfur mass loading. Here, a new strategy based on intrinsic point defects of materials is proposed to simultaneously enhance the electrical conductivity of active material and regulate the migration of polysulfides. Taking advantage of ultrathin and lightweight Bi2Te2.7Se0.3 (BTS) interlayers with high‐density antisite defects on the separator surface, the Li–S battery with BTS interlayer shows a capacity of 756 mAh g−1 at 2C and a low capacity decay rate of 0.1% over 300 cycles. The BTS interlayer can not only enhance the active material utilization but also improve capacity retention. The defect engineering strategy accompanied with facile method is promising for the development of advanced Li–S batteries for practical application.
A primer on viral‐associated olfactory loss in the era of COVID‐19

Published: April 2020

AbstractEarly reports have suggested that smell loss may be an early symptom associated with the pandemic known as coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19). The possibility that severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) might cause olfactory dysfunction is certainly plausible. Patients presenting to specialized smell clinics are commonly diagnosed with upper respiratory infection (URI)‐associated olfactory loss and most are presumed to be viral related. In acute phases of infection, it is common to experience some smell loss as a result of nasal inflammation, mucosal edema, and obstruction of airflow into the olfactory cleft. In most cases, these episodes of smell loss are self‐limiting and coincide with resolution of URI symptoms. However, in some cases the smell loss persists for months to years and this is presumed to occur through a more direct olfactory insult by the virus. It remains too early to know whether infection with SARS‐CoV‐2 causes persistent olfactory dysfunction. However, given the scale of this pandemic, if SARS‐CoV‐2 does cause chronic olfactory loss in even a small portion of those infected, then the overall population prevalence could be quite large. This review provides a brief, practical overview of viral‐associated olfactory loss, realizing that evidence related to COVID‐19 will likely not be clear for some time. Our goal is to highlight the existence and importance of this condition and provide information geared for both providers and patients. Practical suggestions regarding evaluation and treatment will be provided, realizing that there may be constraints on medical resources and the nature of this pandemic remains dynamic.
Chemistry of Chitosan Aerogels: Three‐Dimensional Pore Control for Tailored Applications

Published: April 2020

AbstractChitosan is an abundant biopolymer derived from food waste with attractive properties, particularly its high biocompatibility and easy chemical processability. Here, we review the rapidly expanding literature on chitosan‐based porous materials with a focus on the gelation mechanisms, the three‐dimensional multiscale structural control, and the diverse chemical functionality not accessible by other biopolymers. The properties vary widely: from supercritically dried, mesoporous chitosan aerogels to very light, freeze‐dried macroporous scaffolds. Porous chitosan displays impressive performance at the laboratory scale, but the highly (meso)porous nature amplifies not only the beneficial functionality of chitosan, but also its drawbacks, resulting in serious barriers to industrialization. In order to facilitate technology transfer, we critically discuss the practical feasibility of chitosan aerogels in potential applications compared to conventional and other biopolymer‐based porous or nonporous materials.

AbstractDiverse applications of bacterial cellulose (BC) have different requirements in terms of its structural characteristics. culturing Komagataeibacter xylinus CGMCC 2955, BC structure changes with alterations in oxygen tension. Here, the K. xylinus CGMCC 2955 transcriptome was analyzed under different oxygen tensions. Transcriptome and genome analysis indicated that BC structure is related to the rate of BC synthesis and cell growth, and galU is an essential gene that controls the carbon metabolic flux between the BC synthesis pathway and the pentose phosphate (PP) pathway. The CRISPR interference (CRISPRi) system was utilized in K. xylinus CGMCC 2955 to control the expression levels of galU. By overexpressing galU and interfering with different sites of galU sequences using CRISPRi, we obtained strains with varying expression levels of galU (3.20–3014.84%). By testing the characteristics of BC, we found that the porosity of BC (range: 62.99–90.66%) was negative with galU expression levels. However, the crystallinity of BC (range: 56.25–85.99%) was positive with galU expression levels; galU expression levels in engineered strains were lower than those in the control strains. Herein, we propose a new method for regulating the structure of BC to provide a theoretical basis for its application in different fields.
Solvent Effects in the Homogeneous Catalytic Reduction of Propionaldehyde with Aluminium Isopropoxide Catalyst: New Insights from PFG NMR and NMR Relaxation Studies

Published: April 2020

AbstractSolvent effects in homogeneous catalysis are known to affect catalytic activity. Whilst these effects are often described using qualitative features, such as Kamlet‐Taft parameters, experimental tools able to quantify and reveal in more depth such effects have remained unexplored. In this work, PFG NMR diffusion and T1 relaxation measurements have been carried out to probe solvent effects in the homogeneous catalytic reduction of propionaldehyde to 1‐propanol in the presence of aluminium isopropoxide catalyst. Using data on diffusion coefficients it was possible to estimate trends in aggregation of different solvents. The results show that solvents with a high hydrogen‐bond accepting ability, such as ethers, tend to form larger aggregates, which slow down the molecular dynamics of aldehyde molecules, as also suggested by T1 measurements, and preventing their access to the catalytic sites, which results in the observed decrease of catalytic activity. Conversely, weakly interacting solvents, such as alkanes, do not lead to the formation of such aggregates, hence allowing easy access of the aldehyde molecules to the catalytic sites, resulting in higher catalytic activity. The work reported here is a clear example on how combining traditional catalyst screening in homogeneous catalysis with NMR diffusion and relaxation time measurements can lead to new physico‐chemical insights into such systems by providing data able to quantify aggregation phenomena and molecular dynamics.
Feeling neoliberal
Authors: Freeman Carla 
Published: April 2020

AbstractWe live in a time of feelings. Anger, disgust, and anxiety abound in the public sphere and in social analyses. Positive feelings are also increasingly demanded and exchanged in the capitalist marketplace, including care and empathy, tenderness and affection. Indeed, the intensity with which feelings traverse these boundaries of individual‐social‐cultural‐political‐economic life is arguably a defining feature of our times. Yet much of the scholarship on neoliberalism has focused squarely upon the extractive and exhausting quality of contemporary affective life. Strikingly, feminist affect theory in particular interprets a fundamental cruelty at the core of cultural demands for optimism (Berlant 2011) or happiness (Ahmed 2010), a dark underbelly that forecloses any other transformative outcomes. In this essay, I suggest that feminist ethnographic analysis requires a more complex account of affective pursuits. I turn to the specific context of the post‐colonial Caribbean island of Barbados, where a new surge in desires for intimacy, emotional expressiveness, and affective life is bound up within the 21stcentury thrust of neoliberal entrepreneurialism. In a society known more for its conservative 'stiff‐upper lip' and 'grin‐and‐bear‐it' demeanor, 'tough love,' and material, transactional modes of support and exchange than expressions of intimate affection, I chart a growing desire for new modes of feeling, a growing cultural pull toward romantic love and intimacy, and emotional expressivity itself. I read within these Barbadian desires (and even within their disappointments) a profound optimism, pleasure, and bold self‐discovery that does not only/always succumb to despair.

AbstractDiffuse large B‐cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is an aggressive type of non‐Hodgkin lymphoma. The prevalence of hypercalcemia in this neoplasm and its prognostic significance is unclear. We retrospectively evaluated the prevalence of hypercalcemia at diagnosis of DLBCL and explored associations of hypercalcemia with clinical factors and outcome. Outcome was assessed using event‐free survival at 24 months (EFS24). A total of 305 patients (248 de novo DLBCL and 57 transformed indolent lymphomas) diagnosed between 2006 and 2018 in Reims were analyzed. The prevalence of calcemia >10.5 mg/dL at diagnosis of de novo DLBCL and transformed indolent lymphomas was 23% and 26%, respectively. Hypercalcemia in de novo DLBCL was strongly associated with high‐risk features, especially with International Prognostic Index (IPI) components, but also with B symptoms, β2‐microglobulin, hemoglobin, and albumin levels. The diagnosis‐to‐treatment interval was significantly shorter for hypercalcemic patients (P = .001). These associations with adverse prognostic factors translated into lower rates of EFS24 (HR = 1.66; 95% CI, 1.08‐2.54) and shorter PFS (P = .0059) and OS (P = .0003) for patients with lymphoma‐related hypercalcemia but not independently of IPI parameters. These data suggest that hypercalcemia is rather a biomarker of the underlying biological aggressiveness of DLBCL.

AbstractAn 80‐year‐old man with multiple comorbidities presented to the emergency department with tachypnea, tachycardia, fever, and critically low O2 saturation and definitive chest computerized tomography scan findings in favor of COVID‐19 and positive PCR results in 48 hours. He received antiviral treatment plus recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEPO) due to his severe anemia. After 7 days of treatment, he was discharged with miraculous improvement in his symptoms and hemoglobin level. We concluded that rhEPO could attenuate respiratory distress syndrome and confront the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 virus through multiple mechanisms including cytokine modulation, antiapoptotic effects, leukocyte release from bone marrow, and iron redistribution away from the intracellular virus.
