Published: December 2021

INTRODUCTION:
Cirrhosis incidence in pregnancies from outside the United States (US) is rising, although contemporary data including maternal and perinatal outcomes within the United States are lacking.

Methods:
Using discharge data from the racially diverse US National Inpatient Sample, temporal trends of cirrhosis in pregnancies were compared with noncirrhotic chronic liver disease (CLD) or no CLD. Outcomes included preterm birth, postpartum hemorrhage, hypertensive complications (preeclampsia, eclampsia, and/or hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelets syndrome), and maternal or fetal death. Logistic regression was adjusted for age, race, multiple gestation, insurance status, and prepregnancy metabolic comorbidities.

Results:
Among 18,573,000 deliveries from 2012 to 2016, 895 had cirrhosis, 119,875 had noncirrhotic CLD, and 18,452,230 had no CLD. Pregnancies with cirrhosis increased from 2.5/100,000 in 2007 to 6.5/100,000 in 2016 (P = 0.01). On adjusted analysis, cirrhosis was associated with hypertensive complications (vs no CLD, OR 4.9, 95% confidence intervals [CI] 3.3–7.4; vs noncirrhotic CLD, OR 4.4, 95% CI 3.0–6.7), postpartum hemorrhage (vs no CLD, OR 2.8, 95% CI 1.6–4.8; vs noncirrhotic CLD, OR 2.0, 95% CI 1.2–3.5), and preterm birth (vs no CLD, OR 3.1, 95% CI 1.9–4.9; vs noncirrhotic CLD, OR 2.0, 95% CI 1.3–3.3, P ≤ 0.01). Cirrhosis was statistically associated with maternal mortality, although rarely occurred (≤ 1%).

DISCUSSION:
In this racially diverse, US population-based study, pregnancies with cirrhosis more than doubled over the past decade. Cirrhosis conferred an increased risk of several adverse events, although maternal and perinatal mortality was uncommon. These data underscore the need for reproductive counseling and multidisciplinary pregnancy management in young women with cirrhosis.

Abstract
The paper considers the possibility of using thin films based on samarium sulfide, as well as composite systems of metal-oxide semiconductors doped with rare-earth elements, as radiation-resistant sensitive materials for monitoring leaks of rocket fuel components. The data of electrophysical studies of the obtained sensor layers were processed within the framework of the semiconductor Fourier spectroscopy constructed in relation to gas-analytical systems and the nonlinear regression algorithm of selective calibration. The latter solves really the problem of sensors’ selectivity including distinguishing the substances of the same homology such as methane, propane and n-hexane.
From Taiwan New Cinema to Post-New Cinema: The Transition of Identity in Cape No. 7 and the Naming Issue of Post-New Cinema
Authors: Pan Yi-ling 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
In 2008, Taiwan’s cinema began to get back on its feet after an extended lull, with several directors successively releasing critically acclaimed first works. Compared with the well-known Taiwan New Cinema, this new film trend works within the conventions of genre and often focuses on local issues and ordinary life. In doing so, critics and scholars call it Post-New Cinema. Yet, its naming brings difficulties to our understanding on this epoch-making wave, since it neither intends to innovate the paradigm and the framework established by New Cinema, nor does it completely inherit the legacy left by it. Therefore, these uncertain interpretations motivate us to review the legitimacy of this naming. This essay will evaluate firstly the genealogy from the Taiwan New Cinema to the Post-New Cinema in aesthetic and historical–cultural representation, to further propose the paradox about the naming of Post-New Cinema. Secondly, we attempted, by comparing the two most representative films of the two periods, Cape No. 7 and A City of Sadness, an initial look at the transition and the transformation in terms of aesthetical demonstration, historical representation, and ethnic politics, to argue that a subtle change in identity has been created in Taiwanese cinema since 2008.
Synthesis of hydroxycinnamoyl shikimates and their role in monolignol biosynthesis

Published: December 2021

Abstract
Hydroxycinnamoyl shikimates were reported in 2005 to be intermediates in monolignol biosynthesis. 3-Hydroxylation of p-coumarate, originally thought to occur via coumarate 3-hydroxylase (C3H) from p-coumaric acid or its CoA thioester, was revealed to be via the action of coumaroyl shikimate 3′-hydroxylase (C3′H) utilizing p-coumaroyl shikimate as the substrate, itself derived from p-coumaroyl-CoA via hydroxycinnamoyl-CoA: shikimate hydroxycinnamoyltransferase (HCT). The same HCT was conjectured to convert the product, caffeoyl shikimate, to caffeoyl-CoA to continue on the pathway starting with its 3-O-methylation. At least in some plants, however, a more recently discovered caffeoyl shikimate esterase (CSE) enzyme hydrolyzes caffeoyl shikimate to caffeic acid from which it must again produce its CoA thioester to continue on the monolignol biosynthetic pathway. HCT and CSE are therefore monolignol biosynthetic pathway enzymes that have provided new opportunities to misregulate lignification. To facilitate studies into the action and substrate specificity of C3H/C3′H, HCT, and CSE enzymes, as well as for metabolite authentication and for enzyme characterization, including kinetics, a source of authentic substrates and products was required. A synthetic scheme starting from commercially available shikimic acid and the four key hydroxycinnamic acids (p-coumaric, caffeic, ferulic, and sinapic acid) has been developed to provide this set of hydroxycinnamoyl shikimates for researchers.
The relation between obesity, kisspeptin, leptin, and male fertility

Published: December 2021

Abstract
Over the past decades, obesity and infertility in men increased in parallel, and the association between both phenomena have been examined by several researchers. despite the fact that there is no agreement, obesity appears to affect the reproductive potential of men through various mechanisms, such as changes in the hypothalamic-pituitary-testicular (HPT) axis, spermatogenesis, sperm quality and/or alteration of sexual health. Leptin is a hormone produced by the adipose tissue, and its production elevates with increasing body fat. Many studies have supported the relationship between raised leptin production and reproductive function regulation. In fact, Leptin acts on the HPT axis in men at all levels. However, most obese men are insensitive to increased production of endogenous leptin and functional leptin resistance development. Recently, it has been recommended that Kisspeptin neurons mediate the leptin’s effects on the reproductive system. Kisspeptin binding to its receptor on gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neurons, activates the mammal’s reproductive axis and stimulates GnRH release. Increasing infertility associated with obesity is probably mediated by the Kisspeptin-GnRH pathway. In this review, the link between obesity, kisspeptin, leptin, and male fertility will be discussed.
Advanced Distortion Analysis of Heat Treated Rings*
Authors: Surm H. 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
The basic approach to interpret distortion as a system property is accepted in science and industry. The determination of significant factors and interactions on distortion in the overall production process of selected components represents a central point to identify relevant distortion mechanisms. In this context, a component specific distortion description is a major step to answer distortion problems.
In the field of ball bearing engineering, roundness deviation of raceways is an important characteristic. But this parameter is not useful for distortion engineering because no information concerning ring shape is given. But in literature, roundness deviation can be separated in its respective forms like oval and triangle shape with harmonic analysis. In addition, this analysis can be used to specify an amplitude and a direction in the different shapes to describe distortion.
In this article, harmonic analysis is used for advanced distortion analysis of tapered roller bearing. An analysis in graphical form is introduced, which illustrates both the amount and the direction of distortion.
Comparison of the Hardness-Toughness Relationship of Medium-Mn Steels after Q&T and Q&P Treatments*

Published: December 2021

Abstract
In contrast to quenching and tempering (Q&T), with quenching to room temperature, quenching and partitioning (Q&P) usually applies quenching to a temperature between Ms and room temperature. To stabilize a sufficient amount of retained austenite (RA), carbon diffusion from martensite into austenite and a prevention of cementite formation takes place during the successive partitioning step. Larger amount of RA, and its transformation into martensite during plastic deformation, provides Q&P treated steels with an enhanced combination of strength and ductility. In this investigation, the effect of different Q&T and Q&P treatments on the hardness-toughness relationship was determined. These results are compared with the RA contents and mechanical properties provided by tensile testing. The obtained results clearly demonstrate that the optimum parameters for strength and ductility do not match with the best combinations of hardness and toughness. Furthermore, the stability of the RA plays an important role in the understanding of toughness properties of the investigated Q&P steels.

Published: December 2021

AbstractIn the present study, CFD calculations are presented for the three types of water-based nanofluids Al2O3/water, CuO/water and TiO2/water with 0.1% volume fraction. These calculations are done with ANSYS-CFX and as geometry the SRBTL test loop as scaled down test loop for a VVER-1000 reactor core design is used. The goal of this study is to evaluate the CFD program against the SRBTL test loop core as a scaled core for applying water-based nanofluids as coolant. ANSYS-CFX simulation data are validated against the RELAP5/MOD3.2 simulation data for pure water. This comparison shows a good agreement. The simulation results for the nanofluids and water including Re number, temperature, viscosity, pressure drop and heat transfer coefficient through the SRBTL test loop core are compared. The results of the comparisons show that the SRBTL test loop core is suitable to extract experimental data of water-based nanofluids for using them as coolant in the VVER-1000 reactor.
Evaluation of human factor engineering influence in nuclear safety using probabilistic safety assessment techniques
Authors: Farcasiu M. , Constantinescu C. 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
This paper provides the empirical basis to support predictions of the Human Factor Engineering (HFE) influences in Human Reliability Analysis (HRA). A few methods were analyzed to identify HFE concepts in approaches of Performance Shaping Factors (PSFs): Technique for Human Error Rate Prediction (THERP), Human Cognitive Reliability (HCR) and Cognitive Reliability and Error Analysis Method (CREAM), Success Likelihood Index Method (SLIM) Plant Analysis Risk – Human Reliability Analysis (SPAR-H), A Technique for Human Error Rate Prediction (ATHEANA) and Man-Machine-Organization System Analysis (MMOSA). Also, in order to identify other necessary PSFs in HFE, an additional investigation process of human performance (HPIP) in event occurrences was used. Thus, the human error probability could be reduced and its evaluating can give out the information for error detection and recovery. The HFE analysis model developed using BHEP values (maximum and pessimistic) is based on the simplifying assumption that all specific circumstances of HFE characteristics are equal in importance and have the same value of influence on human performance. This model is incorporated into the PSA through the HRA methodology. Finally, a clarification of the relationships between task analysis and the HFE is performed, ie between potential human errors and design requirements.
The Veteran Reintegrated in You’re the Worst and One Day at a Time
Authors: Pastel Renée 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
As the “War on Terror” continues, the national myth of veteran-as-hero has given way to a narrative shorthand of veteran-as-villain. Films and television shows depicting the reintegration of veterans tend to focus on the struggle and alienation from the homefront that veterans feel upon their return. In contrast, comedy television portrayals such as One Day at a Time and You’re the Worst, both of which slowly but successfully reintegrate their central veteran characters, do so narratively by shifting their characters’ veteran status from their defining feature to one aspect of their past. Ultimately, I argue that the process of reintegration is one paralleled in the rehumanization that these comedy television portrayals permit, ultimately offering hope that reintegration, while not easy, is possible.
Review elucidating graphene derivatives (GO/rGO) supported metal sulfides based hybrid nanocomposites for efficient photocatalytic dye degradation
Authors: Gul Mahwash Mahar , Ahmad Khuram Shahzad 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
Photocatalysis by utilizing semiconductors for the removal of toxic pollutants has gained tremendous interest for remediation purposes. The organic pollutants usually include; pesticides, dyes and other phenolic compounds. An imperative restraint associated with the photocatalytic effectiveness of the catalyst is the rapid recombination of the light generated electrons and holes. The particle agglomeration and electron-hole recombination hinders the rate of pollutant removal. For decades, researchers have used metal-sulfides efficiently for photocatalytic dye degradation. The recent use of hybrid nanomaterials with the combination of graphene derivatives such as graphene oxide and reduced graphene oxide (GO/rGO)-metal sulfide has gained interest. These composites have displayed an impressive upsurge in the photocatalytic activity of materials. The current review describes the various researches on dye photodegradation by employing (GO/rGO)-metal sulfide, exhibiting a boosted potential for photocatalytic dye degradation. A comprehensive study on (CuS, ZnS and CdS)–GO/rGO hybrid composites have been discussed in detail for effective photocatalytic dye degradation in this review. Astonishingly improved dye degradation rates were observed in all these studies employing such hybrid composites. The several studies described in the review highlighted the varying degradation rates based on diverse research parameters and efficacy of graphene derivatives for enhancement of photocatalytic activity.

Published: December 2021

The precise location of the human female genital representation field in the primary somatosensory cortex (S1) is controversial and its capacity for use-associated structural variation as a function of sexual behavior remains unknown. We used a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)-compatible sensory-tactile stimulation paradigm to functionally map the location of the female genital representation field in 20 adult women. Neural response to tactile stimulation of the clitoral region (vs right hand) identified individually-diverse focal bilateral activations in dorsolateral areas of S1 (BA1–BA3) in alignment with anatomic location. We next used cortical surface analyses to assess structural thickness across the 10 individually most activated vertices per hemisphere for each woman. We show that frequency of sexual intercourse within 12 months is correlated with structural thickness of the individually-mapped left genital field. Our results provide a precise functional localization of the female genital field and provide support for use-associated structural variation of the human genital cortex.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTWe provide a precise location of the human female genital field in the somatosensory cortex and, for the first time, provide evidence in support of structural variation of the human genital field in association with frequency of genital contact. Our study represents a significant methodological advance by individually mapping genital fields for structural analyses. On a secondary level, our results suggest that any study investigating changes in the human genital field must map the field individually to achieve sufficient precision. Our results pave the way for future research into the plasticity of the human genital cortex as a function of normal or adverse experience as well as changes in pathologic conditions, i.e., sexual dysfunction, sexual deviation, or sexual risk-taking behavior.

Published: December 2021

Coffee leaf rust is the main disease that causes significant losses in Coffea arabica. In Peru, this disease caused epidemics between 2008 and 2013 with production losses of 35 %. The objective was to identify H. vastatrix using a morphological and molecular approach based on a phylogenetic species concept. Coffee leaf samples with symptoms of chlorotic lesions with the presence of yellow uredospores at different severity stages of different cultivars were collected from 11 locations in the departments of Pasco and Junin during 2017-2018. DNA was purified as proposed by Cristancho and coworkers. The major subunit of ribosomal DNA was amplified with universal primers LR0R and LR5, and sequenced by Macrogen and deposited in GenBank. Sequences from the genera Achrotelium, Blastospora, Cystopsora, Hemileia, and Mikronegeria were included for phylogenetic analysis. The results showed that the rust was distributed in coffee growing regions of Pasco: Villa Rica (Catimor, Caturra, and Gran Colombia); Oxapampa (Yellow Caturra), and Junín: San Luis de Shuaro (Catimor), Chanchamayo (Catimor), San Ramón (Catimor), Vitoc (Caturra), Pichanaki (Caturra), Río Negro (Caturra), Pangoa (Yellow Caturra, Gran Colombia, Limani). It was also grouped into a single clade with isolated H. vastatrix from Mexico and Australia, suggesting that they come from a common ancestor. This is the first confirmed report using molecular barcoding of H. vastatrix in the central jungle of Peru.
