Published: February 2020

Abstract
Hypoglycemia is a common metabolic condition in neonatal period, but severe and persistent hypoglycemia can cause neurological damage and brain injury. The aim of the present study was to analyze the risk factors of neonatal hypoglycemia in clinic. A total of 135 neonatal hypoglycemia infants and 135 healthy infants were included in the present study. The differences in birth weight between neonatal hypoglycemia group and healthy control group were analyzed via t test. The associations between neonatal blood sugar level and relevant characteristic factors were explored using χ2 test. Binary logistic regression analysis was used to analyze risk factors related to the incidence of neonatal hypoglycemia. The results showed that the average birth weight was matched in neonatal hypoglycemia group and healthy control group. Neonatal blood sugar level of the infants was significantly associated with born term, birth weight, feed, gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and hypothermia (all P&lt;0.05). Besides, logistic regression analysis showed that babies’ born term (odds ratio (OR) = 2.715, 95% confidence interval (95% CI): 1.311–5.625), birth weight (OR = 1.910, 95% CI: 1.234–2.955), improper feeding (OR = 3.165, 95% CI: 1.295–7.736) and mother’s GDM (OR = 2.184, 95% CI: 1.153–4.134) were high risk factors for neonatal hypoglycemia. The incidence of hypoglycemia in infants was significantly associated with various clinical factors. And monitoring these risk factors is one of important measures to reduce long-term neurological damage caused by neonatal hypoglycemia.
Taking Care of Preschool Children Who Experience Traumatic Brain Injury
Authors: Haarbauer-Krupa Juliet , Brink Michael 
Published: February 2020

Background
Children ages 5 years and younger have the highest incidence of emergency department visits for traumatic brain injury (TBI) and are most at risk for the effects of a TBI. Because they are not yet enrolled in formal school, there is not a direct pathway from health care to school that can offer a pathway for monitoring and care. The purpose of this article is to describe existing literature on preschool children with TBI and illustrate a model of care in the community for this population.

Method
Literature review and model program description were performed in this study.

Findings
Preschool children are typically seen annually for well visits by their pediatricians who can inquire about a TBI history and make appropriate referrals. Children in this age group are likely to be enrolled in day care and preschool settings where screenings and evaluations are conducted for parent and teacher concerns. A current model operating in Pennsylvania and Colorado is promising for identifying and serving children. Additional resources in existing systems can also help children obtain school supports.

Discussion
Children who experience a TBI prior to formal school entry are most likely to be in existing systems of health care and preschool/day care that can ask about a child's TBI history and screen for the impact of the TBI. Speech-language pathologists, who serve many existing systems where preschool children attend school and day care, can play a critical role in assessment and needs identification for preschool children.
Lessons Learned From Coaching Postsecondary Students With Traumatic Brain Injury
Authors: Kennedy Mary R. T. 
Published: February 2020

Purpose
The purpose of this clinical focus article is to provide speech-language pathologists with a brief update of the evidence that provides possible explanations for our experiences while coaching college students with traumatic brain injury (TBI).

Method
The narrative text provides readers with lessons we learned as speech-language pathologists functioning as cognitive coaches to college students with TBI. This is not meant to be an exhaustive list, but rather to consider the recent scientific evidence that will help our understanding of how best to coach these college students.

Conclusion
Four lessons are described. Lesson 1 focuses on the value of self-reported responses to surveys, questionnaires, and interviews. Lesson 2 addresses the use of immediate/proximal goals as leverage for students to update their sense of self and how their abilities and disabilities may alter their more distal goals. Lesson 3 reminds us that teamwork is necessary to address the complex issues facing these students, which include their developmental stage, the sudden onset of trauma to the brain, and having to navigate going to college with a TBI. Lesson 4 focuses on the need for college students with TBI to learn how to self-advocate with instructors, family, and peers.
Impact of the convective mixing-length parameter α on stellar metallicity
Authors: Song N. , Alexeeva S. , Sitnova T. , Wang L. , Grupp F. , Zhao G. 
Published: February 2020

Context. Mixing-length theory is used to treat stellar convection. As a simulation in one-dimensional stellar atmospheres models, the mixing-length parameter α is calibrated from the Sun and then applied to other stars. However, there is no strong evidence to suggest that α should be the same for stars of different evolutionary stages.
Aims. We evaluate the impact of the α value on the metallicity of different types of stars and investigate the correlation between the metallicity discrepancy (Δ[Fe∕H]) and stellar parameters (Teff, log g).
Methods. We selected ten well-studied field stars and one open cluster of nine members for which high-resolution and high signal-to-noise spectra are available. The model atmospheres were calculated with the code MAFAGS-OS. We derived iron abundances from Fe I and Fe II lines both under local thermodynamic equilibrium and non-LTE conditions using a spectrum synthesis method. After deriving [Fe/H] for each line, we calculated Δ[Fe∕H] with two different α values, fixed solar-calibrated α, and α obtained for each star individually. Finally, we investigated the correlation between Δ[Fe∕H] caused by revised α with stellar parameters.
Results. For FGK dwarf stars, the Δ[Fe∕H] caused by the α correction is less than 0.02 dex, while for turn-off and giant stars, the Δ[Fe∕H] values are no more than 0.03 dex, which are lower than typical uncertainties in metallicity. For main-sequence stars, Δ[Fe∕H] versus Teff and Δ[Fe∕H] versus log g are well fit by linear relations.

Published: February 2020

Abstract
Aims Infertility and its treatment are associated with considerable psychological distress for infertile couples. The aim of our study was to explore to what extent positive and negative affectivity and a predisposition to depression and anxiety appear in infertile couples during in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment. We also aimed to explore how the emotional state of couples changed during IVF in relation to treatment outcomes.
Method In our longitudinal study, 174 people (87 couples) were followed up during treatment by means of questionnaires. Their emotional state was assessed with PANAS, BDI-R, and STAI at the beginning of treatment, before embryo transfer, and before taking a pregnancy test. Couples who achieved pregnancy after treatment were included in the successful group (n = 82), while those who did not were included in the unsuccessful group (n = 92).
Results We found more favorable emotional states in IVF couples compared to patient populations and the average population. In successful IVF couples, positive affectivity decreased, and negative affectivity increased in women until the time of embryo transfer. This was accompanied by an increase in positive affectivity in men, which remained until the time of the pregnancy test and provided emotional support to their partner. These results were confirmed by changes in the levels of depression.
Conclusion Our study suggests the importance of couplesʼ emotional dynamics for having a child and an association between couplesʼ emotional reactions during IVF cycles and treatment success.
Placental tissue of greenhouse muskmelon (Cucumis melo L.) contains more gamma-aminobutyric acid with antioxidant capacity than the fleshed pulp

Published: February 2020

ABSTRACT
Our previous study revealed that gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in Earl’s muskmelon is more concentrated in the inner than the outer parts of the fruit. Here, the GABA and antioxidant capacity of the placental tissue of muskmelon, which is considered waste, were evaluated for possible use as a source of bioactive compounds. The concentrations of GABA and related substances in the placental tissue were significantly higher than in the fleshed pulp, whereas glutamic acid and sugar levels were significantly lower. The two sites showed no difference in GAD activity. Furthermore, the placental site showed high antioxidant capacities based on 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl and oxygen radical absorbance capacity for hydrophilic compounds assays compared with the fleshed pulp, because of the higher levels of total phenolic and L-ascorbic acids. Therefore, the placental tissue of muskmelons may be useful for developing functional foods, which would also reduce the amount of residues during muskmelon processing.
Dynamical dimerization phase in Jaynes–Cummings lattices
Authors: Peña Rubén , Torres Felipe , Romero Guillermo 
Published: February 2020

Abstract
We report on an emergent dynamical phase of a strongly-correlated light–matter system, which is governed by dimerization processes due to short-range and long-range two-body interactions. The dynamical phase is characterized by the spontaneous symmetry breaking of the translational invariance and appears in an intermediate regime of light–matter interaction between the resonant and dispersive cases. We describe the quench dynamics from an initial state with integer filling factor of a finite-sized array of coupled resonators, each doped with a two-level system, in a closed and open scenario. The closed system dynamics has an effective Hilbert space description that allows us to demonstrate and characterize the emergent dynamical phase via time-averaged quantities, such as fluctuations in the number of polaritons per site and linear entropy. We prove that the dynamical phase is governed by intrinsic two-body interactions and the lattice topological structure. In the open system dynamics, we show evidence about the robustness of dynamical dimerization processes under loss mechanisms. Our findings can be used to determine the light–matter detuning range, where the dimerized phase emerges.
Entropy behavior for isolated systems containing bounded and unbounded states: latent heat at the inflection point
Authors: Flores J C , Palma-Chilla L 
Published: February 2020

Abstract
Systems like the Morse oscillator with potential energies that have a minimum and states that are both bounded and extended are considered in this study in the microcanonical statistical ensemble. In the binding region, the entropy becomes a growing function of the internal energy and has a well-defined inflection point corresponding to a temperature maximum. Consequently, the specific heat supports negative and positive values around this region. Moreover, focusing on this inflection point allows to define the critical energy and temperature, both evaluated analytically and numerically. Specifically, the existence of this point is the signature of a phase transition, and latent heat dynamics occur to accomplish the transition. The conditions established below apply to a large variety of potentials, including molecular ones, and have relevance for physics, chemistry, and engineering sciences. As a specific application, we show that the inflection point for the H
2 molecule occurs at −1.26 [eV].
Simulated nanoparticle assembly using protoparticles (SNAP)
Authors: Opletal George , Golebiewski Maciej , Barnard Amanda S 
Published: February 2020

Abstract
Many functional properties of particle system rely on collective behaviour and the type of superstructures formed when thousands of particles come together. Self-assembly, agglomeration and aggregation depend sensitively on the size and shape of particles present, as well as the size distribution and the mixtures of shapes within a given sample, which makes simulation of these superstructures and their properties challenging. Here we present a new, flexible, software package for the simulations of ordered and disorder aggregates of faceted polyhedral particle from the nanoscale to the micron-scale, which is capable of including size distributions and mixtures of multiple particle shapes defined by the User, subject to additional User-defined interactions. Following relaxation using molecular dynamics a number of characterisation tools are provided, including interfacial probabilities and distribution functions. The software is applicable to a range of problems from nanoparticle assembly to additive manufacturing.
Placing the hybrid origin of the asexual Amazon molly (Poecilia formosa) based on historical climate data
Authors: Costa Gabriel C , Schlupp Ingo 
Published: February 2020

AbstractAsexual hybrids are important model organisms for addressing questions in evolution and ecology, especially for understanding the role of hybridization in speciation. They are rare in nature and several hypotheses have been suggested to explain this. We use an asexual fish, the Amazon molly (Poecilia formosa), to establish the area in which it was formed via hybridization 125 000 years ago. Using species distribution models and climate models for the Last Interglacial (LIG) we found that model projections to the LIG show a similar map to the present climate model and parental species potentially overlapped in a relatively small area near Tampico, Mexico. This makes P. formosa one of a few hybrid species for which we know the parental species, the time of hybridization, and likely the place of hybridization. Based on the small area of overlap, our data is in agreement with the idea that asexual hybrids may be rare not because they are evolutionary dead ends but are formed rarely.
‘A distant and whiggish country’: the Conservative party and Scottish elections, 1832–47*
Authors: Hutchison Gary D 
Published: February 2020

Abstract
This article examines the role of the Scottish Conservative party in shaping the underlying culture of Scottish politics in the 1830s and 1840s, utilizing numerous collections of private papers, newspapers, memoirs and legal texts. It focuses on the party’s experiences of electioneering rituals, and its innovative electoral registration activities. It then examines the effects of its creation of illegitimate ‘fictitious’ votes, and of its diverse methods for influencing electors. In doing so, it puts ‘party’ at the heart of a notably distinctive and fast-evolving Scottish political culture, and challenges assumptions that this culture was overwhelmingly whiggish in character and inspiration.
Generic Quantum Metric Rigidity
Authors: Chirvasitu Alexandru 
Published: February 2020

Abstract
We introduce the coherent algebra of a compact metric measure space by analogy with the corresponding concept for a finite graph. As an application we show that upon topologizing the collection of isomorphism classes of compact metric measure spaces appropriately, the subset consisting of those with trivial compact quantum automorphism group is of 2nd Baire category. The latter result can be paraphrased as saying that “most” compact metric measure spaces have no (quantum) symmetries; in particular, they also have trivial ordinary (i.e., classical) automorphism group.

Published: February 2020

Abstract
The red wolf (Canis rufus), a legally recognized and critically endangered wolf, is known to interbreed with coyotes (Canis latrans). Declared extirpated in the wild in 1980, red wolves were reintroduced to northeastern North Carolina nearly a decade later. Interbreeding with coyotes was thought to be restricted to a narrow geographic region adjacent to the reintroduced population and largely believed to threaten red wolf recovery. However, red wolf ancestry was recently discovered in canids along the American Gulf Coast, igniting a broader survey of ancestry in southeastern canid populations. Here, we examine geographic and temporal patterns of genome-wide red wolf ancestry in 260 canids across the southeastern United States at over 164 000 SNP loci. We found that red wolf ancestry was most prevalent in canids sampled from Texas in the mid-1970s, although non-trivial amounts of red wolf ancestry persist in this region today. Further, red wolf ancestry was also observed in a subset of coyotes inhabiting North Carolina, despite management efforts to limit the occurrence of hybridization events. Lastly, we found no evidence of substantial red wolf ancestry in southeastern canids outside of these 2 admixture zones. Overall, this study provides a genome-wide survey of red wolf ancestry in canids across the southeastern United States, which may ultimately inform future red wolf restoration efforts.
The radio properties of high-excitation radio galaxies with intermediate radio powers
Authors: Pierce J C S , Tadhunter C N , Morganti R 
Published: February 2020

ABSTRACT
In the past decade, high-sensitivity radio surveys have revealed that the local radio active galactic nucleus population is dominated by moderate-to-low power sources with emission that is compact on galaxy scales. High-excitation radio galaxies (HERGs) with intermediate radio powers (22.5 &lt; log (L1.4 GHz) &lt; 25.0 W Hz−1) form an important sub-group of this population, since there is strong evidence that they also drive multiphase outflows on the scales of galaxy bulges. Here, we present high-resolution Very Large Array observations at 1.5, 4.5, and 7.5 GHz of a sample of 16 such HERGs in the local universe (z &lt; 0.1), conducted in order to investigate the morphology, extent, and spectra of their radio emission in detail, down to sub-kpc scales. We find that the majority (56 per cent) have unresolved structures at the limiting angular resolution of the observations (∼0.3 arcsec). Although similar in the compactness of their radio structures, these sources have steep radio spectra and host galaxy properties that distinguish them from local low-excitation radio galaxies that are unresolved on similar scales. The remaining sources exhibit extended radio structures with projected diameters ∼1.4–19.0 kpc and a variety of morphologies: three double-lobed; two large-scale diffuse; one jetted and ‘S-shaped’; one undetermined. Only 19 per cent of the sample therefore exhibit the double-lobed/edge-brightened structures often associated with their counterparts at high and low radio powers: radio-powerful HERGs and Seyfert galaxies, respectively. Additional high-resolution observations are required to investigate this further, and to probe the ≲300 pc scales on which some Seyfert galaxies show extended structures.
A Challenging Case of Domestically Acquired Leprosy in the Southern United States

Published: February 2020

AbstractHansen’s disease (HD) is rare in the United States, but a steady number of cases are diagnosed annually, especially in southern areas where armadillos are present. Challenges associated with erythema nodosum leprosum (ENL), a complication of multibacillary leprosy, call for novel regimens. We present a case of a man with recalcitrant ENL from HD likely acquired in the United States. He required a combination of 4 drugs to control chronic ENL.
The long-term optical activity of the propellers AE Aquarii and AR Scorpii
Authors: Šimon Vojtěch 
Published: February 2020

Abstract
This analysis of the long-term optical activity of the propellers AE Aqr and AR Sco uses data from the Catalina Real-time Transient Survey, DASCH, and AAVSO. The site and character of the emissions from the phenomena caused by the magnetic field of the white dwarf (WD) vary from system to system. The histogram of intensities of the ensemble of flares of AE Aqr suggests that the long-term activity consists of a large variety of the peak magnitudes of the flares, with the probability of their detection gradually decreasing with increasing intensity. Any increase of activity only leads to an increase of the number of blobs of the transferring matter. We also detected a season with a transient decrease or even a cessation of the mass outflow from the donor to the lobe of the WD. The very strong orbital modulation of AR Sco is most stable in the phases of the extrema of brightness for about a century; its minor changes suggest that the trailing side of the synchrotron-emitting region is more unstable than the leading side.

AbstractGenebanks provide access to diverse materials for crop improvement. To utilize and evaluate them effectively, core collections, such as the World Rice Core Collection (WRC) in the Genebank at the National Agriculture and Food Research Organization, have been developed. Because the WRC consists of 69 accessions with a high degree of genetic diversity, it has been used for &gt;300 projects. To allow deeper investigation of existing WRC data and to further promote research using Genebank rice accessions, we performed whole-genome resequencing of these 69 accessions, examining their sequence variation by mapping against the Oryza sativa ssp. japonica Nipponbare genome. We obtained a total of 2,805,329 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and 357,639 insertion–deletions. Based on the principal component analysis and population structure analysis of these data, the WRC can be classified into three major groups. We applied TASUKE, a multiple genome browser to visualize the different WRC genome sequences, and classified haplotype groups of genes affecting seed characteristics and heading date. TASUKE thus provides access to WRC genotypes as a tool for reverse genetics. We examined the suitability of the compact WRC population for genome-wide association studies (GWASs). Heading date, affected by a large number of quantitative trait loci (QTLs), was not associated with known genes, but several seed-related phenotypes were associated with known genes. Thus, for QTLs of strong effect, the compact WRC performed well in GWAS. This information enables us to understand genetic diversity in 37,000 rice accessions maintained in the Genebank and to find genes associated with different phenotypes.The sequence data have been deposited in DNA Data Bank of Japan Sequence Read Archive (DRA) (Supplementary Table S1).
