Abstract

Background
The experience of distressing low sexual interest/arousal—female sexual interest/arousal disorder (FSIAD)—is prevalent in women of all ages and is associated with poorer sexual, relationship, and psychological well-being than women without this difficulty. Women who are partnered are almost 5 times more likely to be distressed by low desire and to receive a diagnosis of FSIAD than unpartnered women, indicating that interpersonal factors are highly relevant, although largely neglected in past research.

Aim
In a dyadic cross-sectional and longitudinal study, we examined whether partner responses to FSIAD were associated with the sexual, relationship, and psychological well-being of couples, and whether any effects persisted 1 year later.

Methods
Women diagnosed with FSIAD (N = 89) completed a validated measure of perceived partner positive vs negative responses to their low sexual interest/arousal and their partners reported on their own responses, as well as measures of sexual desire, sexual satisfaction, relationship satisfaction, sexual distress, and anxiety. 1 year later, couples (N = 66) completed the outcome measures again. Data were analyzed according to the Actor-Partner Interdependence Model.

Outcomes
Outcomes included were the Sexual Desire Inventory–Solitary and Partner-Focused Subscales; Global Measure of Sexual Satisfaction; Female Sexual Distress Scale; Couple Satisfaction Index; and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory–Short-Form.

Results
When women with FSIAD perceived more positive partner responses (eg, warm, supportive, compassionate) than negative responses (eg, hostile, unsupportive, indifferent), they were more satisfied with the relationship and they and their partners reported lower anxiety. When partners reported more positive than negative responses, they had greater relationship and sexual satisfaction and lower sexual distress and anxiety. Exploratory analyses revealed that women's perceptions of their partners' responses accounted for the link between partners' own responses and women's relationship satisfaction and anxiety. Partner responses did not predict any change in outcomes over time.

Clinical Implications
Findings support interpersonal conceptualizations of FSIAD and may inform the development of future couple-based interventions.

Strengths & Limitations
This study is one of the few dyadic investigations of FSIAD, as diagnosed via a clinical interview. Significant associations were only observed cross-sectionally, limiting causal conclusions. There was limited power to detect longitudinal effects.

Conclusion
More positive responses to women's low sexual interest/arousal by partners is linked to better adjustment among couples affected by FSIAD.

ABSTRACTObjective:Crisis management in major accidents requires the collaboration among different organizations. One of the most important problems of crisis management is the lack of coordination between executive organizations. The aim of this study was to examine the structural characters and problems of interorganizational network during crisis in the petrochemical industry and provide solutions to achieve the highest performance in crisis management.Methods:The organizations involved in crisis management were identified through interviews and questionnaires. Gephi (0.9.1) software was used to examine interorganizational relationships.Results:In this study, the crisis management team consisted of 25 public and private organizations and non-governmental organizations. The highest betweenness centrality was observed in Crisis Management of Provincial Government (CMPG) (142.16) and Fire Department of Petrochemical Complex (FDC) (89.3). The highest closeness centrality was observed in FDC (0.77), CMPG (0.7), Shazand Governorate (0.7), and Crisis Management of University of Medical Sciences (0.7).Conclusions:Coordination between organizations plays an important role in crisis and emergency management, and social network analysis helps identify strengths and weaknesses of organizations involved in crisis management, overcome those weaknesses, and consequently achieve the best performance in crisis management.

AbstractMultiple studies suggest that diabetes mellitus (DM) is a potential risk factor for tuberculosis (TB) development and treatment, especially in low- and middle-income countries. The study aimed to test concomitancy between DM and TB among adults in India. Data were from the 2015–16 National Family Health Survey (NFHS-4). The study sample comprised 107,575 men aged 15–54 and 677,292 women aged 15–49 for which data on DM status were available in the survey. The association between state-level prevalence of TB and DM was examined and robust Poisson regression analysis applied to examine the effect of DM on TB. A high prevalence of TB was observed among individuals with diabetes in India in 2015–16. A total of 866 per 100,000 men and 405 per 100,000 women who self-reported having diabetes also had TB; among those who self-reported not having diabetes the ratios were 407 per 100,000 men and 241 per 100,000 women. The risk of having TB among those who self-reported having DM was higher for both men (2.03, 95% CI: 1.26, 3.28) and women (1.79, 95% CI: 1.48, 2.49) than for those who did not self-report having DM. Adults who were diagnosed with diabetes (including pre-diabetes) also had a higher rate of TB (477 per 100,000 men and 331 per 100,000 women) than those who were not diagnosed (410 per 100,000 men and 239 per 100,000 women). Adults from poor families, with lower BMIs, lower levels of literacy and who were not working had a higher risk of TB–DM co-morbidity. The state-level pattern of co-morbidity, the under-reporting of DM (undiagnosed) and TB stigmatization are discussed. The study confirms that diabetes is an important co-morbid feature with TB in India, and reinforces the need to raise awareness on screening for the co-existence of DM and TB with integrated health programmes for the two conditions.

AbstractBackgroundIn Europe, the incidence of psychotic disorder is high in certain migrant and minority ethnic groups (hence: ‘minorities’). However, it is unknown how the incidence pattern for these groups varies within this continent. Our objective was to compare, across sites in France, Italy, Spain, the UK and the Netherlands, the incidence rates for minorities and the incidence rate ratios (IRRs, minorities v. the local reference population).MethodsThe European Network of National Schizophrenia Networks Studying Gene–Environment Interactions (EU-GEI) study was conducted between 2010 and 2015. We analyzed data on incident cases of non-organic psychosis (International Classification of Diseases, 10th edition, codes F20–F33) from 13 sites.ResultsThe standardized incidence rates for minorities, combined into one category, varied from 12.2 in Valencia to 82.5 per 100 000 in Paris. These rates were generally high at sites with high rates for the reference population, and low at sites with low rates for the reference population. IRRs for minorities (combined into one category) varied from 0.70 (95% CI 0.32–1.53) in Valencia to 2.47 (95% CI 1.66–3.69) in Paris (test for interaction: p = 0.031). At most sites, IRRs were higher for persons from non-Western countries than for those from Western countries, with the highest IRRs for individuals from sub-Saharan Africa (adjusted IRR = 3.23, 95% CI 2.66–3.93).ConclusionsIncidence rates vary by region of origin, region of destination and their combination. This suggests that they are strongly influenced by the social context.

AbstractMore than 80% of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] in Brazil is cultivated in no-till systems, and although cover crops benefit the soil, they may reduce the amount of residual herbicides reaching the soil, thereby decreasing herbicide efficacy. The objective of this study was to evaluate sulfentrazone applied alone, sequentially after glyphosate, and in a tank mixture with glyphosate before planting no-till soybean. Experiments were performed in two cover crop systems: (1) pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.] and (2) forage sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench ssp. bicolor]. The treatments tested were: glyphosate (720 g ae ha−1) at 20 d before sowing (DBS) followed by sulfentrazone (600 g ai ha−1) at 10 DBS; glyphosate + sulfentrazone (720 g ae ha−1 + 600 g ai ha−1) for cover crop desiccation at 10 DBS; and sulfentrazone alone at 10 DBS without a cover crop. The accumulation of straw was 31% greater using sorghum rather than pearl millet. In the sorghum system, the concentration of sulfentrazone at 0 to 10 cm was 57% less with sequential application and 92% less with the tank mixture compared with the treatment without cover crop straw at 1 d after application (DAA). The same occurred in the pearl millet system, where the reduction was 33% and 80% for the sequential application and tank mixture, respectively. The absence of a cover crop resulted in greater sulfentrazone concentrations in the top layer of the soil when compared with the sequential application or tank mixture. At 31 and 53 DAA, the concentration of sulfentrazone at 10 to 20 and 20 to 40 cm did not differ among treatments. Precipitation of 90 mm was enough to remove the herbicide from the cover crop straw at 31 DAA when using sequential application. An additional 90-mm precipitation was necessary to promote the same result when using the tank mixture.

AbstractWe present analyses of nitrogen and oxygen isotopic ratios and site‐preference (SP) values of atmospheric nitrous oxide samples obtained from Taiwan in west Pacific. Air samples were collected during September 2013 to January 2016 from Taipei and during November 2011 to December 2014 from Keelung, located in the northeastern coast of Taiwan. The average values of δ15N, δ18O, and SP are 6.4 ± 0.3 ‰, 44.0 ± 0.4 ‰, and 17.1 ± 1.0 ‰, respectively, at Taipei and 6.4 ± 0.2 ‰, 44.6 ± 0.4 ‰, and 17.9 ± 1.3 ‰, for δ15N, δ18O, and SP respectively, at Keelung, comparable to the average values (6.6 ± 0.2, 44.2 ± 0.2, and 18.1 ± 0.5 ‰, scaled to year 2014) from Hateruma, an open ocean station in western Pacific. Strong temporal variations in the delta values, however, are seen. During a subtropical jet‐strengthening period in October to mid‐December 2014, the δ15N, δ18O and SP values increased at the rate of 0.006 ± 0.002 ‰/day, 0.010 ± 0.002 ‰/day and 0.008 ± 0.002 ‰/day, respectively at Taipei and 0.013 ± 0.005 ‰/day, 0.011 ± 0.005 ‰/day and 0.011 ± 0.027 ‰/day at Keelung. This suggests intrusion of air to the lower troposphere from the stratosphere where δ15N, δ18O and SP values are higher. This is consistent with earlier observations of oxygen isotope anomaly in atmospheric CO2 and elevated 35S in sulfate aerosols, indicating frequent stratospheric intrusions in this region. The observed δ15N and δ18O values, along with the oxygen isotope anomaly in CO2 and multiple sulfur isotopes in sulfate, can be used to constrain local emissions from the surface, improving our knowledge of anthropogenic contribution to the global budget of N2O.

Published: September 2020

AbstractCarbonic anhydrase (CA) has been shown to promote calcite dissolution (Liu, 2001,https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1755-6724.2001.tb00531.x; Subhas et al., 2017,https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.1703604114), and understanding the catalytic mechanism will facilitate our understanding of the oceanic alkalinity cycle. We use atomic force microscopy (AFM) to directly observe calcite dissolution in CA‐bearing solution. CA is found to etch the calcite surface only when in extreme proximity (~1 nm) to the mineral. Subsequently, the CA‐induced etch pits create step edges that serve as active dissolution sites. The possible catalytic mechanism is through the adsorption of CA on the calcite surface, followed by proton transfer from the CA catalytic center to the calcite surface during CO2hydration. This study shows that the accessibility of CA to particulate inorganic carbon (PIC) in the ocean is critical in properly estimating oceanic CaCO3and alkalinity cycles.
Revisiting the Role of Convective Deep Water Formation in Northern Baltic Sea Bottom Water Renewal

Published: September 2020

AbstractDeep water renewal and ventilation of the Baltic Sea is commonly considered to occur solely via saltwater inflows from the North Sea. However, recent analysis of geophysical and sediment proxy data suggests convective deep water formation during wintertime as a second process that has contributed to the ventilation of the northern and central Baltic Sea bottom waters during cold climate periods. Here, we investigate the role of deep water formation in the northern Baltic Sea in a regional ocean circulation model. Selecting the particularly cold winter 1986/1987 as a reference period, we perform sensitivity experiments in which the atmospheric temperature forcing is changed and/or localized brine rejection on subgrid scales is accounted for through a parameterization. We study the sinking and circulation of water masses via passive tracers introduced into the model. Generally, our model results support the established view that convective deep water formation does not play a major role in Baltic Sea deep water renewal. While a reduction of air temperatures does not qualitatively change the sinking and circulation of water masses in our experiments, brine rejection could potentially lead to localized deep water formation. However, the impact is too weak to possibly change the large‐scale deep water exchange between the Baltic proper and the northern Baltic sub‐basins. Although being in line with established knowledge, through consideration of the model limitations, our results provide insights on how and under which circumstances convective deep water formation could potentially have occurred during cold climate periods.

AbstractClouds significantly affect the Earth's radiation budget and play a critical role in atmospheric sulfate formation. The pathways of S(IV) oxidations have recently caused a controversial attention under severe haze episodes due to the variable acidity and water content in aerosol particles. In this study, a total of 158 cloud samples were collected from 2014 to 2018 at the summit of Mt. Tai, China, to explore the roles of atmospheric oxidants in aqueous S(IV) oxidation. The results showed that the averaged pH value of cloud water increased dramatically from 3.86 (Guo et al., 2012, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.atmosenv.2012.07.016) in 2007–2008, ~5.5 in 2014, to ~6.4 in 2018, respectively, while water soluble secondary ions (SO42−, NO3− and NH4+) and S(IV) decreased significantly. The four pathways of S(IV) oxidation by O3, H2O2, NO2, and trace metal‐catalyzed autooxidation were further discussed, and the roles in S(IV) oxidation pathways were found changing significantly with pH value in clouds. The rate of H2O2 pathway contributed about 95.8% for S(IV) oxidation when pH was less than 4.0. For pH around 5.0, the rate of O3 pathway became comparable with the H2O2 pathway, and it accounted more than 95.2% for the total S(IV) oxidation rate when pH was larger than 6.0. Based on the long‐term field measurement, this study indicated that the high concentration of O3 and the increasing trend of pH promoted a shift of the dominant S(IV) oxidation from H2O2 pathway in a previous study (Shen et al., 2012, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.atmosenv.2012.07.079) to O3 pathway in clouds.

AbstractWe reconstructed the variability of the Earth's strongest hydrological system, the Indian monsoon, over the interval 6.24 to 4.91 Ma at International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) Expedition 353 Site U1448 in the Andaman Sea. We integrated high‐resolution benthic and planktic foraminiferal carbon and oxygen isotopes with Mg/Ca measurements of the mixed layer foraminifer Trilobatus sacculifer to reconstruct the isotopic composition of seawater (δ18Osw) and the gradient between planktic and benthic foraminiferal δ13C. A prominent increase in mixed layer temperatures of ~4°C occurred between 5.55 and 5.28 Ma, accompanied by a change from precession‐ to obliquity‐driven variability in planktic δ18O and δ18Osw. We suggest that an intensified cross‐equatorial transport of heat and moisture, paced by obliquity, led to increased summer monsoon precipitation during warm stages after 5.55 Ma. Transient cold stages were characterized by reduced mixed layer temperatures and summer monsoon failure, thus resembling late Pleistocene stadials. In contrast, an overall cooler background climate state with a strengthened biological pump prevailed prior to 5.55 Ma. These findings highlight the importance of internal feedback processes for the long‐term evolution of the Indian monsoon.

Published: September 2020

AbstractIn recent years, high‐speed railway and subway are being built rapidly in China. Tunnel scenario is a major scenario in some of the high‐speed railways and most of the subways. Channel characteristic is the decisive condition of wireless communication system design in tunnel. The availability of multiple‐input multiple‐output (MIMO) in tunnel is an important issue in the next generation communication network. This paper presents results from a wideband measurement campaign at center frequency of 1.4725 and 6 GHz in a tunnel laboratory. The path loss, root‐mean‐square delay spread (RMS‐DS) characteristics by single‐input single‐output (SISO) measurement and the angle spread, channel matrix singular values, and MIMO capacity at various link distances by MIMO measurement are illustrated. and these provide insights for MIMO system deployment. And also, the threshold of singular value for channel matrix rank reduction is given.
The Transfer and Transport of a Passive Scalar Within an Isolated Array of Circular Cylinders in a Uniform Flow
Authors: Klettner Christian 
Published: September 2020

AbstractThe transfer and transport of a passive scalar T from an isolated array of circular cylinders of varying Reynolds number (
) and solid fraction (0.0023 < ϕ < 0.3) in a uniform steady flow are investigated. This problem is an abstraction of the flow past emergent vegetation or marine aquaculture, in which passive contaminants are continuously generated. The upstream flow (
) is uniform and incident on an array of Nc cylinders whose surfaces are set to
. Three‐dimensional numerical simulations were carried out to investigate the mean and fluctuating Nusselt number of the individual cylinders and the array as a whole. To help interpret the numerical results a mathematical model, partly based on empirical relationships, is developed to predict the transfer. The transfer of the scalar from the array was found to increase when the Reynolds number was increased. As the solid fraction is increased the transfer increases, reaches a maximum, and then decreases. This is due to the collective effect of all the cylinders resulting in (i) a modification of the incident flow and (ii) a reduction in the scalar gradient between the cylinder surface and the locally incident flow on individual cylinders. These effects are highly dependent on the solid fraction. Additional simulations were carried out to decompose the contribution of these two processes on the transfer of individual cylinders.
Environmental pH is a key modulator of Staphylococcus aureus biofilm development under predation by the virulent phage phiIPLA-RODI
Authors: Fernández Lucía , Gutiérrez Diana , García Pilar , Rodríguez Ana 
Published: September 2020

Abstract
Previous work had shown that, in some Staphylococcus aureus strains, low concentrations of the virulent phage vB_SauM_phiIPLA-RODI (phiIPLA-RODI) promoted the formation of DNA-rich biofilms, whose cells exhibited significant transcriptional differences compared to an uninfected control. This study aimed to dissect the sequence of events leading to these changes. Analysis of phage propagation throughout biofilm development revealed that the number of phage particles increased steadily up to a certain point and then declined. This partial phage inactivation seemed to be a consequence of medium acidification due to glucose fermentation by the bacterium. Computer simulation of phage–host dynamics during biofilm development showed how even small differences in pH evolution can affect the outcome of phage infection. An acidic pH, together with successful phage propagation, was also necessary to observe the phage-associated changes in biofilm architecture and in the transcriptional profile of the bacterial population. Altogether, this study shows how the dynamics between phage and host can be tightly coordinated through an environmental cue, even in the context of a complex biofilm population.
