Published: July 2020

AbstractIn recent years the availability of geolocation data has increased considerably and can be found in various portable devices such as smartphones. These devices are intended for navigation in general, but can be used to carry out topographical surveys that do not require high accuracy of the surveyed data. To verify the applicability and accuracy of these devices we conducted the topographic survey in an area of approximately 5 ha using a GPS with RTK technology as reference, a Commercial Navigation Receiver (RNC) and a popular brand smartphone with the mobile applications C7 GPS Data and GPS Essentials previously installed. The GPS RNC showed the best planimetric results and the Smartphone with C7 GPS Data obtained the best result altimetric. None of the receivers analyzed showed high accuracy in results obtained. However, they can be used for tasks where high precision is not required.

Published: July 2020

AbstractBackgroundA number of genomic conditions caused by copy number variants (CNVs) are associated with a high risk of neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders (ND-CNVs). Although these patients also tend to have cognitive impairments, few studies have investigated the range of emotion and behaviour problems in young people with ND-CNVs using measures that are suitable for those with learning difficulties.MethodsA total of 322 young people with 13 ND-CNVs across eight loci (mean age: 9.79 years, range: 6.02–17.91, 66.5% male) took part in the study. Primary carers completed the Developmental Behaviour Checklist (DBC).ResultsOf the total, 69% of individuals with an ND-CNV screened positive for clinically significant difficulties. Young people from families with higher incomes (OR = 0.71, CI = 0.55–0.91, p = .008) were less likely to screen positive. The rate of difficulties differed depending on ND-CNV genotype (χ2 = 39.99, p < 0.001), with the lowest rate in young people with 22q11.2 deletion (45.7%) and the highest in those with 1q21.1 deletion (93.8%). Specific patterns of strengths and weaknesses were found for different ND-CNV genotypes. However, ND-CNV genotype explained no more than 9–16% of the variance, depending on DBC subdomain.ConclusionsEmotion and behaviour problems are common in young people with ND-CNVs. The ND-CNV specific patterns we find can provide a basis for more tailored support. More research is needed to better understand the variation in emotion and behaviour problems not accounted for by genotype.
The third sector in a strategically selective landscape – the case of commissioning public services
Authors: MACMILLAN ROB , ELLIS PAINE ANGELA 
Published: July 2020

AbstractIn the context of a mixed economy of welfare, public policy in the UK and elsewhere has long promoted third sector involvement in delivering public services. A growing research literature consistently highlights the challenges third sector organisations face engaging with a demanding public services commissioning environment, but it tends to lack a theoretical basis and can offer misleading accounts of third sector organisations as relatively passive and powerless in the face of wider forces. This article argues that third sector organisations actively operate within and seek to shape a commissioning context which advantages some strategies and some types of organisation over others. To provide stronger theoretical foundations for understanding public services commissioning and the third sector, the concept of ‘strategic selectivity’ (Hay, 2002) is applied to in-depth qualitative longitudinal data from third sector organisations delivering a range of public services. The article contributes new theoretical insights into the dynamic ways in which social policies and public services are organised. The analysis highlights how differently positioned organisations seek to read, navigate pathways through, and transform an uneven public services commissioning landscape.
Disputing ‘market value’: the Bombay Improvement Trust and the reshaping of a speculative land market in early twentieth-century Bombay
Authors: Tejani Shabnum 
Published: July 2020

AbstractUrban expansion in the early twentieth century had a profound impact on India's urban land economies. Historians argue that in this period, urban India went through an increasing marketization of land and that improvement trusts had a significant hand in accelerating land speculation. In the case of Bombay, we still understand little of the relationship between the activities of the Bombay Improvement Trust and rising land values. The article examines key legal disputes around compensation for land acquired by the Trust for public purpose before and after World War I. Such cases show how the Trust and the judiciary shaped changing expectations around what comprised ‘market value’ and consequently became deeply involved in Bombay's land economy. Where officials had earlier resisted valuations that they believed encouraged speculation, after the 1920s the resolution of disputes incorporated future value as a legitimate and necessary part of the economy.

Published: July 2020

AbstractIntroduction:Chest pain is one of the most common reasons for 999 calls and transfers to the emergency department (ED). In these patients, acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is often the diagnosis that clinicians are seeking to exclude. However, only a minority of those patients have AMI, causing a substantial financial burden to health services. Cardiac troponin (cTn) is the reference standard biomarker for the diagnosis of AMI. Several commercially available point-of-care (POC) cTn assays are portable and could feasibly be used in an ambulance. The aim of this paper is to systematically review existing evidence for the use of POC cTn assays in the prehospital setting to rule out AMI.Methods:A systematic search was conducted on EMBASE, MEDLINE, and CINAHL Plus databases, reference lists, and relevant grey literature, including combinations of the relevant terms. Papers published in English language since the year 2000 were eligible for inclusion. A narrative synthesis of the evidence was then undertaken.Results:The initial search and cross-referencing revealed a total of 350 papers, of which 243 were excluded. Seven papers were included in the systematic literature review.Conclusion:Current evidence does not support the use of POC troponin assays to exclude AMI due to issues with diagnostic accuracy and insufficient high-quality evidence.

Published: July 2020

AbstractSince the release of dicamba-tolerant cotton in 2016, preplant and POST applications of dicamba to control glyphosate-resistant Palmer amaranth have increased. With the increase in area treated with dicamba, the risk of off-target movement to nontarget crops has increased. A field study was conducted at the Texas Tech University New Deal Research Farm equipped with subsurface drip irrigation in 2017 and 2018 to evaluate non-dicamba tolerant cotton response to dicamba when applied at four crop growth stages [first square (FS) + 2 wk, first bloom (FB), FB + 2 wk, and FB + 5 wk]. Dicamba at 0.56 (1×), 0.056 (1/10×), 0.0112 (1/50×), 0.0056 (1/100×), and 0.00112 (1/500×) kg ae ha−1 was applied to ‘FM 1830GLT’ cotton. When applications were made at FS + 2 wk, a shift in boll nodal position was apparent following dicamba at the 1/50× rate in 2017 and at 1/10× in 2018 compared to the nontreated control (NTC). A shift in boll distribution from the 1/50× rate of dicamba was apparent at FB in 2017, but not in 2018. Dicamba applied at the 1× rate at FB + 2 wk resulted in reduced boll numbers. No change in boll number or boll position was apparent following any dicamba rate when applied at FB + 5 wk in both years. Dicamba applied at 1/500×, 1/100×, and 1/50× rates at all timings did not affect yield relative to the NTC. When dicamba was applied at the 1/10× rate, the greatest yield loss was observed at FS + 2 wk followed by FB and FB + 2 wk. Micronaire increased following dicamba applied at 1/10× at FS + 2 wk, FB, and FB + 2 wk in 2017. In 2018, micronaire decreased following dicamba applied at 1/10× at FB + 5 wk.
Simulation of the 2018 Tsunami Due to the Flank Failure of Anak Krakatau Volcano and Implication for Future Observing Systems

Published: July 2020

AbstractMotivated by the unwarned tsunami disaster caused by the flank collapse of the Anak Krakatau volcano on 22 December 2018, we used a landslide tsunami model to explore potential tsunami observing and warning systems for the region. With the estimated volume of 0.24 km3 and the relatively short duration (~3 to 5 min), the landslide of the volcanic edifice in the southwest sector triggered a tsunami of higher than 40 m in the vicinity. The tsunami, however, attenuated rapidly as it propagated away from the generation area, resulting in lower than 2 m wave heights at tide gauges around the Sunda Strait. Using the tsunami model, we demonstrated the capability of a ship height positioning method to detect the tsunami of amplitude ~20 cm associated with the event. Furthermore, assimilating the tsunami current velocity observed by high‐frequency oceanographic radars can produce accurate forecasts of coastal tsunami heights.
The East Asian Subtropical Jet Stream and Atlantic Tropical Cyclones
Authors: Zhang Wei , Villarini Gabriele , Vecchi Gabriel A. 
Published: July 2020

AbstractAtlantic tropical cyclones (TCs) can cause significant societal and economic impacts, as 2019's Dorian serves to remind us of these storms' destructiveness. Decades of effort to understand and predict Atlantic TC activity have improved seasonal forecast skill, but large uncertainties still remain, in part due to an incomplete understanding of the drivers of TC variability. Here we identify an association between the East Asian Subtropical Jet Stream (EASJ) during July–October and the frequency of Atlantic TCs (wind speed ≥34 knot) and hurricanes (wind speed ≥64 knot) during August–November based on observations for 1980–2018. This strong association is tied to the impacts of EASJ on a stationary Rossby wave train emanating from East Asia and the tropical Pacific to the North Atlantic, leading to changes in vertical wind shear in the Atlantic Main Development Region (80–20°W, 10–20°N).

AbstractObservation of a quantum spin liquid (QSL) state is one of the most important goals in condensed-matter physics, as well as the development of new spintronic devices that support next-generation industries. The QSL in two dimensional quantum spin systems is expected to be due to geometrical magnetic frustration, and thus a kagome-based lattice is the most probable playground for QSL. Here, we report the first experimental results of the QSL state on a square-kagome quantum antiferromagnet, KCu6AlBiO4(SO4)5Cl. Comprehensive experimental studies via magnetic susceptibility, magnetisation, heat capacity, muon spin relaxation (μSR), and inelastic neutron scattering (INS) measurements reveal the formation of a gapless QSL at very low temperatures close to the ground state. The QSL behavior cannot be explained fully by a frustrated Heisenberg model with nearest-neighbor exchange interactions, providing a theoretical challenge to unveil the nature of the QSL state.
Effect of porous structure of coal on propylene adsorption from gas mixtures

Published: July 2020

AbstractThis paper addresses the issue of the sorption process on coal concerning propylene released from the source of coal heating in the deposit. In this study, the interaction between Polish coals and propylene molecules, as well as three other hydrocarbons (ethylene, ethane, and propane) with the application of a fixed-bed column, was investigated. The experimental results show that propylene adsorption was measurable under the experimental conditions. The differences in the amount of adsorbed propylene were predominately caused by various gas diffusion rates within the pore network associated with the molecular sieving effect. According to the experimental results, the influence of mesopores on propylene adsorption was significantly stronger than the share of micropores of the explored coals. The column tests demonstrated that the largest amount of propylene was adsorbed by coal with the highest value of pore diameter (6.48 nm) determined by nitrogen adsorption at 77 K. Under the experimental conditions, the influence of other hydrocarbons and a surface area on the quantity of the adsorbed gas was unnoticeable. This study provides an understanding of the behavior of some of the fire gases during the flow of the mixture through a heterogeneous structure of coal in the mine environment. The sorption of gases from multi-component mixture released during the self-heating of coal on carbon materials such as bituminous and lignite coals is poorly understood which provides the rationale for the topic of this work.

AbstractThe sea squirt Ciona robusta is a model organism characterized by a transparent body, exhibiting peculiar physiologic and evolutionary characters. In vitro fertilization and breeding of sea squirts is possible, in order to preserve consistent genetic pools. However, some aspects of its biology, as the feeding efficiency according to diet quantity and quality, are still scarcely known. Here we test the effects of three experimental diets on survival and growth, to detect physiological and molecular responses to various types of alimentary suspended particles and the effects of feed concentrations. We also aimed at determining rearing conditions able to limit handling operations, save artificial seawater and control water pollution. Molecular analyses of growth-related genes were performed to detect stressful effects due to feed quality and quantity. A strong effect of doses was highlighted, but water pollution may represent a major concern. A compound diet containing both live algae and non-live particles of a correct size is indispensable to assure development, low stress and high survival rates. Overall, our findings suggest protocols for an easier rearing of Ciona robusta in the laboratory, increasing the potentialities of these organisms as models for research.
Plasmonic-tape-attached multilayered MoS2 film for near-infrared photodetection
Authors: Park Minji , Kang Gumin , Ko Hyungduk 
Published: July 2020

AbstractMolybdenum disulfide has been intensively studied as a promising material for photodetector applications because of its excellent electrical and optical properties. We report a multilayer MoS2 film attached with a plasmonic tape for near-infrared (NIR) detection. MoS2 flakes are chemically exfoliated and transferred onto a polymer substrate, and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) dewetted thermally on a substrate are transferred onto a Scotch tape. The Scotch tape with AgNPs is attached directly and simply onto the MoS2 flakes. Consequently, the NIR photoresponse of the MoS2 device is critically enhanced. The proposed tape transfer method enables the formation of plasmonic structures on arbitrary substrates, such as a polymer substrate, without requiring a high-temperature process. The performance of AgNPs-MoS2 photodetectors is approximately four times higher than that of bare MoS2 devices.

Published: July 2020

AbstractIn this work, a total of 72 samples of non-thermally treated commercial table olives were obtained from different markets of the world. Then, prokaryotic diversity in olive biofilms was investigated by metataxonomic analysis. A total of 660 different OTUs were obtained, belonging to Archaea (2.12%) and Bacteria domains (97.88%). From these, 41 OTUs with a proportion of sequences ≥ 0.01% were studied by compositional data analysis. Only two genera were found in all samples,Lactobacillus, which was the predominant bacteria in the biofilm consortium (median 54.99%), andPediococcus(26.09%).Celerinatantimonas,Leuconostoc, Alkalibacterium, Pseudomonas, Marinilactibacillus,Weissella,and the familyEnterobacteriaceaewere also present in at least 80% of samples. Regarding foodborne pathogens, onlyEnterobacteriaceae, Vibrio,andStaphylococcuswere detected in at least 91.66%, 75.00%, and 54.10% of samples, respectively, but their median values were always below 0.15%. Compositional data analysis allowed discriminating between lye treated and natural olive samples, as well as between olives packaged in glass, PET and plastic bags.Leuconostoc, Celerinatantimonas,andAlkalibacteriumwere the bacteria genera with a higher discriminant power among samples. These results expand our knowledge of the bacteria diversity in olive biofilms, providing information about the sanitary and hygienic status of this ready-to-eat fermented vegetable.

Published: July 2020

AbstractStroke has emerged as a major public health concern in Malaysia. We aimed to determine the trends and temporal associations of real-time health information-seeking behaviors (HISB) and stroke incidences in Malaysia. We conducted a countrywide ecological correlation and time series study using novel internet multi-timeline data stream of 6,282 hit searches and conventional surveillance data of 14,396 stroke cases. We searched popular search terms related to stroke in Google Trends between January 2004 and March 2019. We explored trends by comparing average relative search volumes (RSVs) by month and weather through linear regression bootstrapping methods. Geographical variations between regions and states were determined through spatial analytics. Ecological correlation analysis between RSVs and stroke incidences was determined via Pearson’s correlations. Forecasted model was yielded through exponential smoothing. HISB showed both cyclical and seasonal patterns. Average RSV was significantly higher during Northeast Monsoon when compared to Southwest Monsoon (P < 0.001). “Red alerts” were found in specific regions and states. Significant correlations existed within stroke related queries and actual stroke cases. Forecasted model showed that as HISB continue to rise, stroke incidence may decrease or reach a plateau. The results have provided valuable insights for immediate public health policy interventions.

AbstractMandarin fishes (Sinipercidae) are piscivores that feed solely on live fry. Unlike higher vertebrates, teleosts exhibit feeding behavior driven mainly by genetic responses, with no modification by learning from parents. Mandarin fishes could serve as excellent model organisms for studying feeding behavior. We report a long-read, chromosomal-scale genome assembly forSiniperca chuatsiand genome assemblies forSiniperca kneri,Siniperca scherzeriandCoreoperca whiteheadi. Positive selection analysis revealed rapid adaptive evolution of genes related to predatory feeding/aggression, growth, pyloric caeca and euryhalinity. Very few gill rakers are observed in mandarin fishes; analogously, we found that zebrafish deficient inedarhad a gill raker loss phenotype and a more predatory habit, with reduced intake of zooplankton but increased intake of prey fish. Higher expression ofbmp4, which could inhibitedarexpression and gill raker development through binding of a Xvent-1 site upstream ofedar, may cause predatory feeding inSiniperca.
Barriers to Evidence-Based Treatment of Serious Burns: The Impact of Implicit Bias on Clinician Perceptions of Patient Adherence
Authors: Litchfield Ian , Moiemen Naiem , Greenfield Sheila 
Published: July 2020

Abstract
The underlying assumption of modern evidence-based practice is that treatment decisions made by healthcare providers are based solely on the best available scientific data. However, the connection between evidence informed care guidelines and the provision of care remains ambiguous. In reality, a number of contextual and nonclinical factors can also play a role, among which is the implicit bias that affects the way in which we approach or treat others based on irrelevant, individual characteristics despite conscious efforts to treat everyone equally. Influenced by the social and demographic characteristics of patients, this bias and its associated perceptions have been shown to affect clinical decision making and access to care across multiple conditions and settings. This summary article offers an introduction to how the phenomenon of implicit bias can impact on treatment compliance in multiple care contexts, its potential presence and impact in burns care and describes some of the strategies which offer possible solutions to reducing the disconnect between the conscious attempts to deliver equitable care and the discrepancies in care delivery that remain.
