AbstractMen sometimes withdraw support for gender equality movements when their higher gender status is threatened. Here, we expand the focus of this phenomenon by examining it cross‐culturally, to test if both individual‐ and country‐level variables predict men's collective action intentions to support gender equality. We tested a model in which men's zero‐sum beliefs about gender predict reduced collective action intentions via an increase in hostile sexism. Because country‐level gender equality may threaten men's higher gender status, we also examined whether the path from zero‐sum beliefs to collective action intentions was stronger in countries higher in gender equality. Multilevel modeling on 6,734 men from 42 countries supported the individual‐level mediation model, but found no evidence of moderation by country‐level gender equality. Both country‐level gender equality and individual‐level zero‐sum thinking independently predicted reductions in men's willingness to act collectively for gender equality.

AbstractThe Holy Quran and Hadith are the two main sources of legislation and guidelines for Muslims to shape their lives. The daily activities, sayings, and deeds of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) are called Hadiths. Hadiths are the optimal practical descriptions of the Holy Quran. Technological advancements of information and communication technologies (ICT) have revolutionized every field of daily life, including digitizing the Holy Quran and Hadith. Available online contents of Hadith are obtained from different sources. Thus, alterations and fabrications of fake Hadiths are feasible. Authentication of these online available Hadith contents is a complex and challenging task and a crucial area of study in Islam. Few Hadith authentication techniques and systems are proposed in the literature. In this study, we have surveyed all techniques and systems, which are proposed for Hadith authentication. Furthermore, classification, open challenges, and future research directions related to Hadith authentication are identified.
Validating the doubly weighted genetic risk score for the prediction of type 2 diabetes in the Lifelines and Estonian Biobank cohorts

Published: June 2020

AbstractAs many cases of type 2 diabetes (T2D) are likely to remain undiagnosed, better tools for early detection of high‐risk individuals are needed to prevent or postpone the disease. We investigated the value of the doubly weighted genetic risk score (dwGRS) for the prediction of incident T2D in the Lifelines and Estonian Biobank (EstBB) cohorts. The dwGRS uses an additional weight for each single nucleotide polymorphism in the risk score, to correct for “Winner's curse” bias in the effect size estimates. The traditional (single‐weighted genetic risk score; swGRS) and dwGRS were calculated for participants in Lifelines (n = 12,018) and EstBB (n = 34,129). The dwGRS was found to have stronger association with incident T2D (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.26 [95% confidence interval: 1.10–1.43] and HR = 1.35 [1.28–1.42]) compared to the swGRS (HR = 1.21 [1.07–1.38] and HR = 1.25 [1.19–1.32]) in Lifelines and EstBB, respectively. Comparing the 5‐year predicted risks from the models with and without the dwGRS, the continuous net reclassification index was 0.140 (0.034–0.243; p = .009 Lifelines), and 0.257 (0.194–0.319; p < 2 × 10−16 EstBB). The dwGRS provided incremental value to the T2D prediction model with established phenotypic predictors. It clearly distinguished the risk groups for incident T2D in both biobanks thereby showing its clinical relevance.
Emerging atypical connectivity networks for processing angry and fearful faces in very preterm born children

Published: June 2020

AbstractVery preterm born (VPT) children are those born before 32/40 weeks' gestational age and comprise 10% of the 15 million babies born prematurely worldwide each year. Due to advancements in neonatal medicine, the survival rate of VPT birth has increased, but few studies have investigated the nonmedical, social‐cognitive morbidities that affect these children. In this study, we examined emotional face processing networks in VPT compared to age and sex matched full‐term born (FT) children. Magnetoencephalography (MEG) was used to test VPT and FT born children at 6 years (n= 78) and 8 years (n= 83). Children were assessed using an implicit emotion face‐processing task. Happy, fearful, and angry faces were presented for 150 ms, but children were asked to respond by button press to the location of a control pixelated image of the face displayed on the side of the screen opposite to the face. Children rated the valence of the images on a five‐point scale. Group differences showed that VPT children rated angry faces more positively than their FT peers. VPT children had reduced connectivity for angry and fearful faces at 8 years in networks including regions such as the bilateral amygdala, superior temporal sulci, and anterior cingulate gyrus. Interventions should target both emotion recognition, as well as higher cognitive processes related to emotional control and thinking about one's own emotions.
Which valued‐based price when patients are heterogeneous?
Authors: Levaggi Rosella , Pertile Paolo 
Published: June 2020

SummaryWe use a simple model to study the static and dynamic efficiency of alternative regulation regimes for the reimbursement of medical innovations when responses to a new treatment (effectiveness) are heterogeneous across the eligible population. When the rational behavior of profit‐maximizing firms is taken into account, only average value‐based prices can ensure both static and dynamic efficiency, but they imply higher expenditure and lower consumer surplus. Ignoring dynamic efficiency, if patients' responses are sufficiently homogeneous, marginal value‐based prices may dominate from the payer's perspective. We also present a refinement of average value‐based prices that could reverse this result. Overall, the cost of ensuring static and dynamic efficiency is increasing in the degree of heterogeneity. A real‐world example is used to illustrate these results.
Synthesis of Benzo[a]carbazoles through Visible Light‐Induced Cycloaromatization
Authors: Yao Bo , Wang Qian , Zhu Jieping 
Published: June 2020

AbstractWe report herein a synthesis of 5,6‐diarylbenzo[a]carbazoles by a sequence of 6π‐electrocyclization followed by β‐elimination. The highly functionalized 2,3‐disubstituted indoles used for this cycloaromatization process are prepared by Pd‐catalyzed cyclizative cross‐coupling of ortho‐alkynylanilines with ortho‐alkynylbenzamides. The combination of these two reactions allows us to develop a facile synthesis of benzo[a]carbazoles directly from two easily accessible internal alkynes without isolation of the indole intermediates.
Characterising groundwater–surface water interactions in idealised ephemeral stream systems
Authors: Quichimbo Edisson A. , Singer Michael B. , Cuthbert Mark O. 
Published: June 2020

AbstractTransmission losses from the beds of ephemeral streams are thought to be a widespread mechanism of groundwater recharge in arid and semi‐arid regions and support a range of dryland hydro‐ecology. Dryland areas cover ~40% of the Earth's land surface and groundwater resources are often the main source of freshwater. It is commonly assumed that where an unsaturated zone exists beneath a stream, the interaction between surface water and groundwater is unidirectional and that groundwater does not exert a significant feedback on transmission losses. To test this assumption, we conducted a series of numerical model experiments using idealised two‐dimensional channel‐transects to assess the sensitivity and degree of interaction between surface and groundwater for typical dryland ephemeral stream geometries, hydraulic properties and flow regimes. We broaden the use of the term ‘stream–aquifer interactions’ to refer not just to fluxes and water exchange but also to include the ways in which the stream and aquifer have a hydraulic effect on one another. Our results indicate that deep water tables, less frequent streamflow events and/or highly permeable sediments tend to result in limited bi‐directional hydraulic interaction between the stream and the underlying groundwater which, in turn, results in high amounts of infiltration. With shallower initial depth to the water table, higher streamflow frequency and/or lower bed permeability, greater ‘negative’ hydraulic feedback from the groundwater occurs which in turn results in lower amounts of infiltration. Streambed losses eventually reach a constant rate as initial water table depths increase, but only at depths of 10s of metres in some of the cases studied. Our results highlight that bi‐directional stream–aquifer hydraulic interactions in ephemeral streams may be more widespread than is commonly assumed. We conclude that groundwater and surface water should be considered as connected systems for water resource management unless there is clear evidence to the contrary.
Rill erosion processes on a constantly saturated slope

Published: June 2020

AbstractRill erosion processes on saturated soil slopes are important for understanding erosion hydrodynamics and determining the parameters of rill erosion models. Saturated soil slopes were innovatively created to investigate the rill erosion processes. Rill erosion processes on saturated soil slopes were modelled by using the sediment concentrations determined by sediment transport capacities (STCs) measurement and the sediment concentrations at different rill lengths. Laboratory experiments were performed under varying slope gradients (5°, 10°, 15°, and 20°) and unit‐width flow rates (0.33, 0.67, and 1.33 × 10−3 m3 s−1 m−1) to measure sediment concentrations at different rill lengths (1, 2, 4, and 8 m) on saturated soil slopes. The measured sediment concentrations along saturated rills ranged from 134.54 to 1,064.47 kg/m3, and also increased exponentially with rill length similar to non‐saturated rills. The model of the rill erosion process in non‐saturated soil rills was applicable to that in saturated soil rills. However, the sediment concentration of the rill flow increased much faster, with the increase in rill length, to considerably higher levels at STCs. The saturated soil rills produced 120–560% more sediments than the non‐saturated ones. Moreover, the former eroded remarkably faster in the beginning section of the rills, as compared with that on the non‐saturated soil slopes. This dataset serves as the basis for determining the erosion parameters in the process‐based erosion models on saturated soil slopes.

Published: June 2020

AbstractIntroductionSeasonal variations of allergic diseases have been of great interest in clinical practice, but large‐scale epidemiological data in the real world is lacking.MethodsWe conducted a nationwide, population‐based, cross‐sectional study using the Korean National Health Insurance claims database to examine the seasonalities of allergic rhinitis (AR), asthma, allergic conjunctivitis (AC), and atopic dermatitis (AD). In addition, we investigated the correlations between the monthly patient numbers of each disease and climate factors such as daytime length, temperature, daily temperature range, humidity, solar radiation, rainfall, UVA dose, UVB dose, and PM10.ResultsThe highest seasonal variation was identified in AC, followed by AR, asthma, and AD. AR was most prevalent in September and least prevalent in July and was positively correlated with a daily temperature range. Asthma had peaked in the winter and spring and was negatively correlated with both temperature and humidity. AC had dual peaks in May and September and the valley in winter. AD was prevalent between May and August with the lowest visits in winter and positively correlated with temperature.ConclusionsWe demonstrated a clear seasonality of four allergic diseases. Korea is located in a temperate region with four distinct seasons, with 50 million people all having a single health insurance system. Therefore, our data reflects all hospital visits in Korea with the least chance for selection bias.

Published: June 2020

AbstractBackgroundDespite the recognition of food allergies as a significant cause of morbidity and a growing public health burden worldwide, there are no epidemiological studies addressing food sensitization and allergy in Jordan.ObjectiveTo conduct an epidemiological study that retrospectively analyzes sensitization data from 3463 patients with suspected immunoglobulin E (IgE)‐mediated food allergic reactions who performed specific IgE tests in our laboratories in Jordan.MethodsSpecific IgE (s‐IgE) tests were analyzed for patients who performed enzyme allegro‐sorbent testing based on either self‐reported food allergy or upon physician's request.Results2.3% of the analyzed samples were cross‐reactive to carbohydrate determinants. A quarter of the patients were sensitized to one or more food allergens, with males having higher odds of being s‐IgE positive. Furthermore, a higher prevalence of sensitization was seen in infants and children compared with adults. s‐IgE was most frequently found against cow milk (11.2%), pistachio (4.9%), soybean (4.6%), cherry (4.4%), and orange (4.4%). Interestingly, the s‐IgE class distribution profile of pistachio differed from the rest of the top hits being skewed away from the weak class 1 leaning more towards higher IgE classes. Food allergen sensitization was age group‐dependent: milk, tree nuts, and eggs were the main food groups causing sensitization in infants, while it was fruits followed by milk in children and adults.ConclusionsOur work represents the first epidemiological study addressing food sensitization in Jordan. This study lays a solid foundation for future studies that can help better guide food allergy diagnosis, patient dietary modifications, and food elimination plans, as well as assist decision‐makers in the region to develop national strategies for an efficient and sustainable healthcare system.
Comparing Chinese youth with American youth on adjustment: An illustration of measurement issues in cross‐cultural research

Published: June 2020

In this article, we used results from two studies to show the need to go beyond linguistic equivalence to establish construct validity and measurement invariance in cross‐cultural research. Study 1 examined Rosenberg Self‐Esteem (RSE; 10 items) data from 156 Mainland Chinese youth (M = 13.8 years, SD = .53) and 213 Chinese‐American youth (M = 13.6 years, SD = 2.1) from high socioeconomic status (SES) families. The Chinese translation of the RSE has been widely used. Study 2 included 1060 Mainland Chinese youth (M = 15.6 years, SD = 2.3) and 412 racially diverse American youth (M = 16.0, SD = 2.9) from all SES backgrounds. Data were collected with the third and newest edition of the Behavioural Assessment System for Children‐Self Report of Personality (BASC‐3‐SRP; 189 items). We translated and back‐translated the BASC‐3‐SRP between English and Chinese to establish linguistic equivalence. All participants were females. Study 1 showed that the RSE had acceptable internal consistency but lacked construct validity. Study 2 showed that the original and the translated BASC‐3‐SRP had good internal consistency and construct validity, but nine of its 16 subscales lacked measurement invariance. These results highlight measurement issues facing international and cross‐cultural research.

Relationship between spring tropical cyclone frequency over the western North Pacific and El Niño‐Southern oscillation
Authors: Song Jinjie , Klotzbach Philip J. , Duan Yihong 
Published: June 2020

AbstractThe number of tropical cyclones (TCs) over the western North Pacific (WNP) during spring (March–May) has a significant inverse correlation with concurrent El Niño‐Southern Oscillation (ENSO) conditions during the period from 1979 to 2018. This relationship is different from the previously‐documented weak relationship between TC frequency and ENSO during the climatologically most active portion of the TC season. In general, TCs seldom occur in El Niño years during March–May, whereas they frequently form over the western part of the WNP, particularly to the southeast of the Philippines, in La Niña years. This difference can be largely explained by ENSO‐driven differences in the genesis potential index as derived from environmental variables. In La Niña years, the abnormally moist mid‐troposphere, which relates to the strengthened vertical transport of water vapour induced by the enhanced Walker Circulation, primarily favours TC development, while increased sea surface temperatures and positive low‐level relative vorticity anomalies appear to play a lesser role in impacting TC formation.
Inflammasomes as contributors to periodontal disease
Authors: Marchesan Julie T. 
Published: June 2020

AbstractA genome‐wide association study of ≈2.5 million markers identified unique biologically informed periodontal complex traits with distinct microbial communities and interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β) levels. Each trait was associated with different single nucleotide polymorphisms. These variants include genes associated with immune responses, microbial colonization, and the epithelial barrier function. The specific set of variants leads to individual biological paths that converge into an overlapping clinical phenotype of periodontal tissue destruction. This concept suggests that periodontal disease is a group of distinct conditions. We identified polymorphisms in inflammasome genes interferon gamma inducible protein 16 (IFI16) and absent in melanoma 2 (AIM2) that were associated with increased severity of periodontal disease. Inflammasomes respond to pathogen or tissue “danger” signals and assemble into multiprotein “machineries” that are essential for the cleavage of proinflammatory mediator IL‐1β into an active form. Thus, understanding how variants of IFI16 and AIM2 contribute to periodontal disease pathogenesis may lead to treatment options that address individual biological variations and precision therapies for oral health.

AbstractBackgroundThere is a sparsity of data describing the periodontal microbiome in elderly individuals. We analyzed the association of subgingival bacterial profiles and clinical periodontal status in a cohort of participants in the Washington Heights‐Inwood Columbia Aging Project (WHICAP).MethodsDentate individuals underwent a full‐mouth periodontal examination at six sites/tooth. Up to four subgingival plaque samples per person, each obtained from the mesio‐lingual site of the most posterior tooth in each quadrant, were harvested and pooled. Periodontal status was classified according to the Centers for Disease Control/American Academy of Periodontology (CDC/AAP) criteria as well as based on the percentage of teeth/person with pockets ≥4 mm deep. Bacterial DNA was isolated and was processed and analyzed using Human Oral Microbe Identification using Next Generation Sequencing (HOMINGS). Differential abundance across the periodontal phenotypes was calculated using the R package DESeq2. α‐ and β‐diversity metrics were calculated using DADA2‐based clustering.ResultsThe mean age of the 739 participants was 74.5 years, and 32% were male. Several taxa includingSneathia amnii‐like sp.,Peptoniphilaceae[G‐1] bacterium HMT 113, Porphyromonas gingivalis,Fretibacterium fastidiosum, Filifactor alocis, andSaccharibacteria(TM7) [G‐1] bacterium HMT 346 were more abundant with increasing severity of periodontitis. In contrast, species such asVeillonella parvula,Veillonella dispar,Rothia dentocariosa, andLautropia mirabiliswere more abundant in health. Microbial diversity increased in parallel with the severity and extent of periodontitis.ConclusionsThe observed subgingival bacterial patterns in these elderly individuals corroborated corresponding findings in younger cohorts and were consistent with the concept that periodontitis is associated with perturbations in the resident microbiome.
