Abstract

Context
Stress may lead to an adverse body fat distribution from childhood onwards.

Objective
To examine the associations of hair cortisol concentration (HCC) at 6 years with general and organ fat measures, risk of overweight, and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) at 10 years and to assess whether these were independent of adiposity measures at 6 years.

Design, Setting and participants
HCCs were measured in hair of 6-year-old children (n = 2042) participating in the Generation R Study, a population-based prospective cohort study.

Main Outcome Measures
Body mass index (BMI), fat mass index measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scan, and visceral fat index, pericardial fat index, liver fat fraction measured by magnetic resonance imaging and risk of overweight and NAFLD were obtained at 10 years.

Results
The associations of higher HCC at 6 years, with higher BMI, fat mass index, and increased risk of overweight at age 10 years are explained by the relationships observed at 6 years. HCCs at 6 years were associated with a higher liver fat fraction (difference 0.11 liver fat fraction standard deviation score; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.03, 0.18) and a higher risk of NAFLD at 10 years (odds ratio 1.95; 95% CI 1.06, 3.56), independent of fat mass index at 6 years. HCCs were not associated with pericardial or visceral fat indices.

Conclusions
Higher HCCs at 6 years were associated with higher BMI, fat mass index, liver fat fraction, and higher risks of overweight and NAFLD at 10 years. Only the associations for liver fat fraction and NAFLD were independent of fat mass index at 6 years.
Situated Kinmaking and the Population “Problem”
Authors: Dow Katharine , Lamoreaux Janelle 
Published: October 2020

AbstractContemporary concern about climate change has been accompanied by a resurgence in questions about what part human numbers play in environmental degradation and species loss. What does population mean, and how is this concept being put to use at a moment when the urgency of climate change seems to elevate the appeal to/of numbers? What role has and should kinship play in understanding “population”? Through a discussion of three recent books—Adele Clarke and Donna Haraway’s edited collection Making Kin Not Population, Michelle Murphy’s The Economization of Life, and Jade Sasser’s On Infertile Ground—this book review essay grapples with the place of human numbers in our understanding of the connections between human reproduction, kinship, and environmental issues. This essay engages most closely with the chapters by Clarke and Haraway in Making Kin, setting out concerns about their turn to (over)population through the analytical insights, historical perspectives, and empirical data of Murphy and Sasser. By putting these three books in dialogue with one another, this essay argues that responsibility for limitations on one’s ability to make kin lies within a heteronormative, White supremacist, capitalist political-economy and its inherent structures of inequality rather than in individual (decision) making.
Are Jokes Going to Cut It?

Published: October 2020

Abstract
Intersex theorist Jules Joanne Gleeson finds Andrea Long Chu's Females: A Concern an indispensable read for those interested in recent struggles around sex and the blossoming of theory that has followed in their wake. While Females makes no pretense at being a comprehensive contribution to gender theory, its brevity and wit seem sure to succeed in causing a stir.
Against Queer Theory
Authors: Keegan Cáel M. 
Published: October 2020

Abstract
The author explores how current disciplinary conditions force trans studies against queer theory: Because queer theory is the institutional context through which trans studies is invited into the university, it is also the containing ideological architecture against which trans studies must articulate itself. Trans studies is therefore pressed “against” queer theory as a discursive surface in a manner that limits it from being able to exit this disciplinary scenario.
Empire and Eugenics
Authors: Horbury Ezra , Yao Christine “Xine” 
Published: October 2020

Abstract
This essay offers an overview of trans studies in the United Kingdom in the current climate of transphobia in both academia and the public sphere. This report outlines how trans-exclusionary radical feminist scholars have co-opted the language of victimization and academic freedom following proposed changes to the Gender Recognition Act in 2018. The production of ignorance about trans issues and trans studies is a deliberate project abetted by the UK media even on the left. In response, the authors organized an interdisciplinary trans symposium to affirm trans lives and trans studies for students, scholars, and the wider community. The authors reflect on the successes and failures of the event in light of their institution's past as the origin of eugenics founded by Frances Galton and the broader scope of the legacies of the British empire.
Nothing Until It Is Made Actual; or, Acker versus Growing Up
Authors: Gabriel Kay 
Published: October 2020

Abstract
This essay argues for reading Kathy Acker in terms of what the author calls the “plasticity” of her sentences. These syntactic structures disclose Acker's attempt to expose and negate a bourgeois ideology of adolescence and maturity. The essay pursues this argument through a reading of Acker's novel In Memoriam to Identity, in particular its interest in Rimbaud as both biographical icon and literary precedent. The essay then argues that Acker's concerted literary attack on an ideology of maturity relates to the projects of trans literature at several critical junctures.

ABSTRACT
Animal-borne video recordings from blue whales in the open ocean show that remoras preferentially adhere to specific regions on the surface of the whale. Using empirical and computational fluid dynamics analyses, we show that remora attachment was specific to regions of separating flow and wakes caused by surface features on the whale. Adhesion at these locations offers remoras drag reduction of up to 71–84% compared with the freestream. Remoras were observed to move freely along the surface of the whale using skimming and sliding behaviors. Skimming provided drag reduction as high as 50–72% at some locations for some remora sizes, but little to none was available in regions where few to no remoras were observed. Experimental work suggests that the Venturi effect may help remoras stay near the whale while skimming. Understanding the flow environment around a swimming blue whale will inform the placement of biosensor tags to increase attachment time for extended ecological monitoring.
Using triallelic SNPs for determining parentage in North American yak (Bos grunniens) and estimating cattle (B. taurus) introgression

Published: October 2020

Background: Genetic testing for pedigree accuracy is critical for managing genetic diversity in North American (NA) yak (Bos grunniens), a population expanded mostly from imported zoological park specimens. DNA testing also enhances species conservation by identifying recentB. taurusF1 hybrid ancestors (within three generations). Biallelic single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) can accomplish either task, but increases the marker count and costs necessary to achieve both. Our aim was to identify novel, multifunctional, triallelic yak SNPs (tySNPs), with each having two alleles for yak parentage testing, and a third allele for identifying recent cattle introgression. Methods: Genome sequences were aligned to the cattle UMD3.1 assembly and SNPs were screened for 1) heterozygosity in a NA and a Chinese yak, 2) a third allele at high frequency in cattle, and 3) flanking sequences conserved in both species. Subsequently, tySNPs were filtered for unique alignment to the haplotype-resolved F1 yak assembly. Allele frequencies were estimated in a subset of 87 tySNPs by genotyping 170 NA yak.Results: We identified 610 autosomal tySNPs, distributed in 441 clusters with 5 Mb average genome spacing. The average NA yak minor allele frequency was high (0.296), while average introgressed cattle alleles were low (0.004). In simulations with tySNPs, 28 were sufficient for globally-unique animal identification (PI=5.81x10-12), 87 were able to exclude 19 random bulls from parentage at the 99% level without using the dam’s genotype (PE=5.3x10-4), and 87 were able to detect F1 hybridization events after three generations of yak backcrosses (1/16thB. taurusgermplasm).Conclusions: Identifying animals, determining parentage and detecting recent hybridization events was efficient with as few as 87 tySNPs. A similar triallelic approach could be used with other bottleneckedBosspecies that hybridize with cattle, such as NA plains bison (B. bison).

We demonstrate phase imaging that reduces the common phase noise in full-field optical coherence microscopy using a short multimode fiber (SMMF) probe. Using a cover glass, phase images of the SMMF and sample surfaces were measured simultaneously. Subtracting the phase of the SMMF surface as a reference, the phase drifts in the sample region are reduced. The axial and lateral resolutions were 2.3 µm and

, respectively. The standard deviation of the time variation in the phase decreased from 14.3 deg to 9.2 deg and was reduced by 64% when in contact with the polymer film at the SMMF. In quantitative evaluations, the measured phases closely correspond to the phases changed by a piezoelectric device.
La puesta en valor turístico del patrimonio cultural en fase de desaparición. Una oportunidad para los territorios de interior. Los casos de los monasterios de Vilabertran, Scala Dei y Escornalbou, en Catalunya
Authors: Prat Forga Josep Maria 
Published: October 2020

Los territorios de interior que poseen un importante patrimonio cultural en fase de destrucción tienen la oportunidad de restaurarlo y rehabilitarlo, poniéndolo en valor turístico. De esta manera, no solamente reafirman el sentimiento de identidad local y promocionan su cultura sino que también ayudan a su desarrollo económico, recibiendo nuevos visitantes, ávidos de consumir cultura e historia, y que, no solamente redescubren estos conjuntos monumentales, habiéndose informado previamente de las principales características de la visita, sino que, además, efectúan otros gastos adicionales en sus alrededores, lo que permite crear nuevos puestos de trabajo y mejorar la renta personal de la comunidad local.En este trabajo se analiza la evolución de la cantidad anual de visitantes recibidos en los últimos quince años en tres complejos religiosos que sufrieron su abandono y destrucción a partir de la desamortización de Mendizábal, y cuya restauración y puesta a punto ha permitido situarlos dentro del circuito turístico y cultural de los monasterios catalanes.Para ello se ha utilizado una serie de datos estadísticos oficiales y descriptivos; así como los resultado de una encuesta personal realizada al azar a los visitantes de estos monumentos, confirmando que manifiestan un alto grado de satisfacción con la visita y que están dispuestos a repetirla o, al menos, promocionarla.
"Meu twitter, minhas regras”: as pautas de costumes na educação bolsonarista
Authors: Siqueira de Guimarães Rafael , Rodrigo Braga de Oliveira Cleber 
Published: October 2020

O objetivo deste estudo foi analisar como as pautas de costumes estiveram presentes em um dos espaços oficiais, o twitter do ex-Ministro da Educação Abraham Weintraub, que esteve à frente do Ministério da Educação, entre abril de 2019 e junho de 2020. Para tanto, nós nos dedicamos a examinar os discursos publicados nas postagens – chamadas de tuítes, nessa rede social – que identificamos como referentes a pautas de costumes, ligadas à moralidade, tendo especificidade de se relacionarem a alguma ação do MEC ou não. Como resultado dessa análise, encontramos processos comuns ao bolsonarismo, como a deslegitimação do conhecimento, em especial das Ciências Humanas e Artes, as teorias alarmistas sobre balbúrdia nas Universidades, a inversão acusatória contra opositores e marcas de rancor expressas em apropriações discursivas advindas das redes sociais, como a trollagem e a lacração. A atuação do ex-dirigente expõe como essa comunicabilidade com a massa de apoio bolsonarista o colocou num papel de vice-liderança e, ao mesmo tempo, impactou as ações do Ministério, o qual balizou suas decisões em pautas morais.
Hyers-Ulam stability of a nonautonomous semilinear equation with fractional diffusion
Authors: Villa-Morales José 
Published: October 2020

AbstractIn this paper, we study the Hyers-Ulam stability of a nonautonomous semilinear reaction-diffusion equation. More precisely, we consider a nonautonomous parabolic equation with a diffusion given by the fractional Laplacian. We see that such a stability is a consequence of a Gronwall-type inequality.

a sostenibilidad fiscal como limitante a la reparación administrativa de las víctimas de desplazamiento forzado
Authors: García Lozano Luisa Fernanda , Castellanos Castillo Luis Alberto 
Published: October 2020

El desplazamiento forzado constituye un fenómeno social, económico, político y cultural que ha marcado la historia reciente de Colombia a lo largo del siglo XX, dejando graves secuelas en cerca de 7.265.072 personas víctimas de este flagelo (Unidad de Víctimas, 2017), quienes han sufrido las consecuencias propias del desplazamiento y el desarraigo que se sucede como consecuencia directa del conflicto armado interno, en el que diversos actores armados como las guerrillas, los grupos de autodefensas, además del mismo Estado, han sido perpetradores en mayor o menor medida de este crimen, se suma al escenario de desarraigo, la perdida de sus familiares, sus bienes y la imposibilidad de continuar o desarrollar un proyecto de vida.
Por tratarse de un tema vigente en la agenda pública, la academia, así como en sectores políticos y sociales, el siguiente artículo presenta un análisis acerca de cómo el criterio se sostenibilidad fiscal puede llegar a constituir un límite a la garantía de reparación por vía administrativa para las víctimas del desplazamiento forzado en Colombia. Para ello, se tendrá en cuenta algunos aspectos relevantes que permiten una aproximación conceptual a la manera en que la insuficiente atención por parte del Estado a este grupo poblacional conllevó a que la Corte Constitucional mediante la Sentencia T-025 de 2004 declarará el estado de cosas inconstitucional (ECI) en el tema, emitiendo diferentes órdenes al gobierno nacional tanto del nivel central como territorial, con el fin de que se adopten las medidas necesarias que permitan en un primer momento, mitigar los efectos negativos del desplazamiento, como también en el mediano y largo plazo, superar la declaratoria de ECI, todo esto bajo la perspectiva del reconocimiento y la garantía del goce efectivo de los derechos humanos que han resultados conculcados a las víctimas de la violencia en el país.
The Genetic and Physical Interactomes of theSaccharomyces cerevisiaeHrq1 Helicase

Published: October 2020

AbstractThe human genome encodes five RecQ helicases (RECQL1, BLM, WRN, RECQL4, and RECQL5) that participate in various processes underpinning genomic stability. Of these enzymes, the disease-associated RECQL4 is comparatively understudied due to a variety of technical challenges. However, Saccharomyces cerevisiae encodes a functional homolog of RECQL4 called Hrq1, which is more amenable to experimentation and has recently been shown to be involved in DNA inter-strand crosslink (ICL) repair and telomere maintenance. To expand our understanding of Hrq1 and the RecQ4 subfamily of helicases in general, we took a multi-omics approach to define the Hrq1 interactome in yeast. Using synthetic genetic array analysis, we found that mutations of genes involved in processes such as DNA repair, chromosome segregation, and transcription synthetically interact with deletion of HRQ1 and the catalytically inactive hrq1-K318A allele. Pull-down of tagged Hrq1 and mass spectrometry identification of interacting partners similarly underscored links to these processes and others. Focusing on transcription, we found that hrq1 mutant cells are sensitive to caffeine and that mutation of HRQ1 alters the expression levels of hundreds of genes. In the case of hrq1-K318A, several of the most highly upregulated genes encode proteins of unknown function whose expression levels are also increased by DNA ICL damage. Together, our results suggest a heretofore unrecognized role for Hrq1 in transcription, as well as novel members of the Hrq1 ICL repair pathway. These data expand our understanding of RecQ4 subfamily helicase biology and help to explain why mutations in human RECQL4 cause diseases of genomic instability.

Authors: George Thankamma P. , Sreedevi C. S. , K. Sreekumari 
Published: October 2020

Background: Injuries of the chest causing disruption of the thoracic cage, damaging the great vessels are increasing daily. Aorta is most vulnerable to injury in deceleration trauma from road and air accidents, fall from height and penetrating injuries. Incidence of traumatic rupture of the aorta is rising with higher travel speed. Methods: In this study we analysed the pattern of injury to great vessels and the socio-demographic pattern of the victims in trauma. 250 cases brought to a tertiary care institution for autopsy were studied from 1st January 2005 to 30th November 2005 (1st July 2005 - 30th November prospectively, and 1st January - 30th June 2005, retrospectively). A cross sectional study design including all cases of trauma to the chest was done with consecutive sampling. Data was collected in pro forma and analysed.Results: 206 victims were males. Commonest cause of chest injury was trauma. 130 (52%) were victims of road traffic accidents and the vehicle implicated the most was bus (41 cases, 16.4%). Pedestrians constituted the majority (26.4%). 15 cases (6%) involved major blood vessels of the thorax. Descending part of the thoracic aorta was vulnerable, with transection of the great vessels in 5 cases (2%). Haemothorax was observed in 102 cases on right side and 94 cases on the left side. 9 cases (4%) of bronchial or tracheal ruptures with 6 cases of severance and 3 incidences of tear were recorded.Conclusions: The wound of aorta or pulmonary artery are immediately fatal and commonly seen in case of vehicular accident or fall from height due to the intense compression to the chest with or without any sign of external injury. Most ruptures are due to automobile accidents and the mechanism of injury is sudden motion of the heart and great vessels.
Clinical profile of patients of pyrexia with hepatic dysfunction in a tertiary care hospital in Southern Rajasthan region of India
Authors: Mistry Abhishek , Singhal Yogesh Kumar , Gupta Pankaj , Kumawat D. C. 
Published: October 2020

Background: Pyrexia in association with hepatic dysfunction is commonly found in clinical practice with varied etiologies like malaria, dengue, typhoid, scrub typhus, viral hepatitis, etc. The liver is frequently involved in systemic infections, resulting in various types of abnormal liver function tests. It is very important to know the frequency and pattern of abnormal liver function tests in each infection for its appropriate management.Methods: A complete data of all the patients admitted in medicine wards and medicine ICU from January to December 2018 were studied. One hundred and ten patients with fever with abnormal liver function tests were interviewed and presenting complaints were noted. Demographic data such as age and sex were noted. These patients underwent a thorough general physical examination and systemic examination. The findings were noted on a predesigned and pretested proforma. The selected patient underwent blood investigations related to liver functions.Results: Most of the patients were of age group of 21 to 50 years (65 patients), 67 patients (60.91%) were males and 43 (39.09%) were females. Malaria (25.45%) and dengue (26.36%) were major etiologies. Hepatomegaly (46.36%), icterus in (45.45%) and splenomegaly (42.73%) were most common clinical signs.Conclusions: Present study will help clinicians to identify etiological factors and clinical picture in patients of pyrexia with hepatic dysfunction.
