Published: December 2024

Abstract
Background
Over 1.9 million Arabs live in Israel and constitute 21% of the total population. Despite being a disadvantaged minority population with wide gaps in health indicators, Arabs have higher Human Papillomavirus (HPV) and Measles, Mumps, and Rubella (MMR) vaccination rates compared with the general Jewish population.

Methods
In-depth interviews with 21 health care providers, 16 Arab mothers, and 16 teenagers were conducted to collect information about health system enablers to HPV and MMR vaccination. All interviews were conducted in Arabic by an Arab researcher, audio-recorded, transcribed, and analysed using thematic analysis of the transcripts. Themes were mapped according to the WHO Health Systems Building Block Framework.

Results
We identified several health system enablers. On the service delivery level, accessible and availability of vaccination services, delivery of vaccines through the school system and mother child clinics, and framing vaccinations as the norm were themes. Personable characteristics of the health workforce, the health care providers belonging to the same cultural group, and high levels of trust towards healthcare professionals were reported. Vaccination provided at no cost was also identified. On the leadership/governance level, the Arab community felt equal treatment and distribution of services, which was also an enabler reported. Despite high vaccine uptakes, parents and teenagers had limited knowledge regarding vaccination, particularly HPV.

Conclusions
This study highlights that a combination of good access and delivery to vaccination, delivered by a culturally competent, available, accessible respectful workforce can enable disadvantaged minorities to achieve high vaccine coverage, in particular in a cultural context where the population trusts and follows medical advice. Such evidence can serve as a basis for developing policies, interventions, and guidance to improve vaccine uptake among other underserved minority communities.

AbstractResource scarcity, the effects of climate change, food insecurity, and health issues related to dietary choices have prompted policymakers to develop new strategies to encourage populations to opt for healthy and sustainable (HS) diets. In this context, nudging strategies are promising tools to promote healthy and sustainable dietary behaviors. However, nudges are context-dependent as a specific nudging intervention should be employed in a specific context. This research aims at determining the effects of different nudges on students’ food choices in the context of a hypothetical online pre-ordering system of the college canteen. An experimental study was conducted in the USA with 1400 American college students (18–24 years old). We used a between-subject design with one control and three treatment groups—i.e., a HS logo to identify HS dishes, dish placement (the order in which dishes are displayed on the menu), and a combination of the two nudges. Our main results showed that the logo and logo plus placement led to a significantly increased selection of HS dishes among students who already had strong HS eating behaviors. In addition, individual characteristics (e.g., being flexitarian or vegetarian, being on a low-calorie diet, being a graduate student, and living in dormitories on college campuses) also affected their HS food choices; thus, the population traits, living conditions, and eating habits should be taken into consideration in order to establish successful nudging techniques.
Invisible walls? Stigma-related perceptions are associated with reduced help-seeking intentions for disordered eating in men

Published: December 2024

Abstract
Background
Eating disorders (EDs) are increasingly prevalent in men, but men remain underrepresented across many ED-specific treatment settings. Based on the idea that persistent stereotypes, prejudice and discrimination, i.e., stigma against men with EDs, could impede help-seeking behaviors, the present study investigated whether stigma-related perceptions in men are associated with reduced help-seeking intentions for a broad range of disordered eating symptoms.

Methods
N = 132 adult men participated in a cross-sectional online survey and completed questionnaires on ED psychopathology, muscle dysmorphia, orthorexic eating, stigma-related perceptions of EDs in men, and help-seeking intentions.

Results
Moderator analyses showed that higher stigma-related perceptions were associated with reduced help-seeking intentions in response to increased ED symptom severity. However, this was only the case for traditionally “feminized” ED symptoms (related to thin-body ideals), but not for help-seeking with regard to muscularity-oriented, orthorexic, or avoidant/restrictive disordered eating.

Conclusions
Stigma may reduce help-seeking intentions with regard to “feminized” ED symptoms. The present findings suggest that perceptions of EDs as “women’s diseases” were associated with reduced help-seeking in men. Stigma towards men with EDs could thus be a possible barrier to help-seeking in men, highlighting the relevance of stigma-reducing interventions in clinical and community settings.

Abstract
The eco-industry is an effective path to achieve ecological and economic sustainable development. However, the role played by Rosa roxburghii Tratt (R. roxburghii) industry in karst desertification control still needs to be determined. In this study, we predict the suitability probability and driving variables of R. roxburghii's distribution through a Maximum Entropy model, combining climate, population, vegetation, and soil data, and conducted a sample plot survey in a high-suitability area to explore the role of the R. roxburghii industry in ecological services by using adjacent non-R. roxburghii patches as comparisons. The results showed that South China Karst, with its simultaneous rain and heat climate characteristics, was the most suitable area for the industrialization of R. roxburghii in the world. In South China Karst, the area of no, low, medium, and high suitability zones for R. roxburghii was 4.2 × 105, 6.12 × 105, 4.64 × 105, and 4.42 × 105 km2, respectively, and population distribution was the dominant variable controlling its distribution. The net primary productivity, soil conservation, water conservation, mean species abundance, and aboveground biomass of the R. roxburghii monoculture plot in the high-suitability area were significantly lower than those of adjacent non-R. roxburghii lands and forest patches. Furthermore, the monoculture had higher trade-offs between provision, regulation, and support service. This study found that the monoculture of R. roxburghii industry, dominated by human activities, failed to improve ecological services and exacerbated the trade-offs between services. Therefore, future karst desertification control still needs to follow the agroforestry development path.
Spatial structures of blue low-latitude aurora observed from Japan during the extreme geomagnetic storm of May 2024

Published: December 2024

AbstractOn May 11, 2024, an extreme G5-class geomagnetic storm triggered a spectacular and unusual display of colorful auroras in mid- to low-latitude regions all over the world. In Japan, auroras were seen not only from Hokkaido, the northernmost island, but also from the northern and central parts of Honshu, the main island. The widespread availability of commercial digital cameras among the public led to a flooding of high-resolution auroral images on social media. This study reports on the appearance of a blue-dominant aurora during a storm-time substorm on this day and its magnetic field-aligned and longitudinal structures captured by citizen scientists. Observations from two photographers at different locations revealed that the aurora was located at approximately 40 degrees magnetic latitude and magnetic local time (MLT) of 23 h, spanned about 1200 km (1-h MLT) in the longitudinal direction with three separated structures, and ranged in altitude from 400 km to at least 900 km. Simultaneous photometric measurements suggested that this blue-dominant aurora likely included emissions at 427.8 nm. While previous studies have noted the existence of emissions at 427.8 nm in low-latitude auroras, this is the first time that a blue-dominant low-latitude aurora has been spatially identified and shown to have longitudinal and field-aligned structures. Additionally, previous studies suggested that blue emissions in low-latitude auroras are produced by energetic neutral atoms from the ring current. However, identifying longitudinal and field-aligned structures in this study may need an alternative explanation.

Can heart rate sequences from wearable devices predict day-long mental states in higher education students: a signal processing and machine learning case study at a UK university
Authors: Chen Tianhua 
Published: December 2024

AbstractThe mental health of students in higher education has been a growing concern, with increasing evidence pointing to heightened risks of developing mental health condition. This research aims to explore whether day-long heart rate sequences, collected continuously through Apple Watch in an open environment without restrictions on daily routines, can effectively indicate mental states, particularly stress for university students. While heart rate (HR) is commonly used to monitor physical activity or responses to isolated stimuli in a controlled setting, such as stress-inducing tests, this study addresses the gap by analyzing heart rate fluctuations throughout a day, examining their potential to gauge overall stress levels in a more comprehensive and real-world context. The data for this research was collected at a public university in the UK. Using signal processing, both original heart rate sequences and their representations, via Fourier transformation and wavelet analysis, have been modeled using advanced machine learning algorithms. Having achieving statistically significant results over the baseline, this provides a understanding of how heart rate sequences alone may be used to characterize mental states through signal processing and machine learning, with the system poised for further testing as the ongoing data collection continues.
Advancement in UV-Visible-IR camouflage textiles for concealment of defence surveillance against multidimensional combat backgrounds
Authors: Hossain Md. Anowar 
Published: December 2024

AbstractTarget detection of defence technologies is being rapidly upgraded with modern surveillance technologies. The latest techniques of surveillance are already being implemented for defence applications. Self-protection and hiding from opposing forces are the key principles for the protection of special team in defence. Camouflage textiles aim to create confusing objects for target detection of military personnel. These textiles are applied for military protection such as clothing, weapons, vehicles and location hiding nets/tents. The urgent need for camouflage textiles has been formulated with a technical solution and implementation of the right camouflage materials for concealment of defence target signature against dry leaves, green leaves and tree bark-woodland combat background; water-marine combat background; sand-desertland combat background; stone-stoneland combat background; snow-snowland combat background; sky combat background; ice-iceland combat background; and concrete-concreteland combat background (DGTWSICB) in ultraviolet–visible-infrared (UV–Vis-IR) spectrums. This hypothesis of optical and surveillance engineering, digital imaging and hyperspectral imaging has been coalesced for the advancement of UV–Vis-IR-DGTWSICB camouflage textile technology. The principle of camouflage engineering has been approached by broader spectrum probes in UV–Vis-IR rather than Vis ranges only. Furthermore, camouflage materials, camouflage weapon designs, and formulations of camouflage textiles have been proposed for multidimensional CBs-DGTWSICB. The electromagnetic spectrum, reflection, electron energy, photonic signal and imaging mechanism in UV–Vis-IR have been presented for optical engineering of concealment, detection, recognition and identification of target signature against DGTWSICB. The spectrum relationship of camouflage materials and DGTWSICB materials has been illustrated and compared in UV–Vis-IR spectrums. Camouflage material design, method design and spectral design; textile colorants and technologies; adaptive camouflage; techniques for camouflage textile assessment for digital camera and hyperspectral camera imaging; image processing techniques; and a hierarchical model have been demonstrated for augmentation of camouflage textiles in UV–Vis-IR illumination. Therefore, the anticipated design of camouflage textiles may enhance high-performance innovation for modern surveillance of military protection related to digital camera, hyperspectral camera and radar. This hypothesis includes advanced guidelines for the advanced design of camouflage textiles for multidimensional CBs-DGTWSICB. The challenges, limitations, innovation and defence applications of camouflage engineering for multidimensional combat backgrounds have been coalesced for concealment, detection, recognition and identification of defence target signature.

PURPOSE
This manuscript reports the results of the Indian Network for Development of Peritoneal Surface Oncology and Indian Society of Peritoneal Surface Malignancies (INDEPSO-ISPSM) consensus that aimed to provide recommendations for some important aspects management of patients with colorectal peritoneal metastases (CPM) and address some issues unique to India.

METHODS
The modified Delphi technique was used with two rounds of voting. There were 29 questions on nine main topics—the role of cytoreductive surgery (CRS), patient selection for CRS, preoperative workup, role of systemic chemotherapy (SC), CPM with other visceral metastases, molecular profile, hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) and other modalities of intraperitoneal chemotherapy (IPC), prophylactic/preventive strategies, and surveillances after CRS. A consensus was achieved if anyone option received >70 votes (strong consensus >90%).

RESULTS

Forty-eight surgical (n = 41) and gastrointestinal (n = 7) oncologists were invited; 44 agreed to participate. The response rate was 95.4% (42/44) in round 1 and 93.1% (41/44) in round 2. Overall, a consensus was achieved on 23/29 (79.3%) questions (strong consensus on 6/29 [20.6%]). The panel strongly recommended considering surgery for limited CPM with limited liver metastases (92.5%), not altering the surgical approach in patients with
KRAS
mutations (91.67%), and limiting the use of IPC for unresectable CPM outside clinical trials (95%). Adjuvant SC was recommended for all patients undergoing CRS (89.47%). CRS is a therapeutic option for selected patients with CPM including those with metachronous CPM (79.49) and signet ring cell cancers (76.92%). HIPEC was recommended outside clinical trials only for patients with peritoneal cancer index 11-15(80%).

CONCLUSION
The panel recommended CRS for most indications but was very selective in recommending HIPEC and IPC outside clinical trials. These recommendations should be a useful resource in clinical decision making for clinicians treating CPM in India and regions with a similar sociodemographic background.

Abstract

Objective
To compare the prevalence and clinical characteristics of early gestational diabetes (eGDM) and associated birth outcomes among women of different ethnic groups.

Methods
This is a secondary analysis of an international, multicenter randomized controlled trial of treating eGDM among pregnant women with GDM risk factors enrolled at &lt; 20 weeks’ gestation. GDM diagnosis was made using WHO-2013 criteria. Ethnicity was classified by self-identification. While Europids required at least one risk factor for recruitment, for others, ethnicity itself was a risk factor.

Results
Among women of Europid (n = 1567), South Asian (SA: n = 971), East and South-East Asian (ESEA: n = 498), Middle Eastern (ME: n = 242), and Māori and Pasifika (MP: n = 174) ethnicities; MP (26.4%) had the highest eGDM crude prevalence compared with Europid (20.3%), SA (24.7%), ESEA (22.3%), and ME (21.1%) (P &lt; .001). Compared with Europid, the highest eGDM adjusted odds ratio (aOR) was seen in SA (2.43 [95% CI 1.9-3.11]) and ESEA (aOR 2.28 [95% CI 1.68-3.08]); in late GDM, SA had the highest prevalence (20.4%: aOR 2.16 [95% CI 1.61-2.9]). Glucose patterns varied between ethnic groups and ESEA were predominantly diagnosed with eGDM through post-glucose load values, while all other ethnic groups were mainly diagnosed on fasting glucose values. There were no differences in the eGDM composite primary outcome or neonatal and pregnancy-related hypertension outcomes between the ethnic groups.

Conclusion
In women with risk factors, eGDM was most prevalent in SA and ESEA women, particularly identified by the post-glucose load samples. These findings suggest an early oral glucose tolerance test should particularly be performed in women from these ethnic groups.
The Causal Effect of Increasing Area-Level Income on Birth Outcomes and Pregnancy-Related Health: Estimates From the Marcellus Shale Boom Economy
Authors: Martin Molly A. , Green Tiffany L. , Chapman Alexander 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
Income is positively correlated with pregnancy health and birth outcomes, but the causal evidence for this association is limited. Leveraging a natural experiment based on the Pennsylvania boom economy created by the extraction of natural gas from the Marcellus Shale geological formation, we test whether area-level income gains impact birth outcomes (birth weight, gestational length, and preterm birth) and pregnancy health (prepregnancy and prenatal smoking, prepregnancy weight status, gestational weight gain, and the timing and adequacy of prenatal care). We append tax data to birth certificate data and compare health outcomes before and after the boom for births occurring in school districts above the Marcellus Shale. We also explore income effects with a subsample of siblings and test for nonlinear income effects by considering preboom district poverty rates. Using instrumented difference-in-differences models, we find that plausibly exogenous income gains increase the likelihood of having adequate prenatal care in the full sample. In the sibling sample, income gains decrease the likelihood of low birth weight but increase the likelihood of prepregnancy underweight among birthing parents. Results are statistically significant in initially high-poverty districts. We thus affirm prior findings of a causal effect of income on birth weight and prenatal care use but find minimal area-level income effects on other pregnancy-related health behaviors and birth outcomes.

Published: December 2024

A large-area terahertz detector based on a subwavelength zigzag line array on the Weyl semimetal film of WTe2 was designed and prepared. A high-performance device, on account of the combination of the absorption characteristic of Weyl semimetals for long-wave photons with low energy and the enhancement effect of the localized surface plasmon by virtue of a subwavelength zigzag line array structure, has been demonstrated by a numerical simulation and experimental verification. A high-performance detection ability of a large 3.8 mm square area for a 0.1 THz wave at room temperature was verified. The characteristic parameters of the detection ability for the device with a 70 µm line width of WTe2 under the bias voltage of 20 V were obtained with a photocurrent responsivity (R
i
) of 9.51mAW−1, a noise equivalent power (NEP) of 89.3pWHz−1/2, and a detectivity (D∗) of 4.25×109cmHz1/2W−1.

Copper (Cu) is essential for respiration, neurotransmitter synthesis, oxidative stress response, and transcription regulation, with imbalances leading to neurological, cognitive, and muscular disorders. Here we show the role of a novel Cu-binding protein (Cu-BP) in mammalian transcriptional regulation, specifically on skeletal muscle differentiation using murine primary myoblasts. Utilizing synchrotron X-ray fluorescence-mass spectrometry, we identified murine cysteine-rich intestinal protein 2 (mCrip2) as a key Cu-BP abundant in both nuclear and cytosolic fractions. mCrip2 binds two to four Cu+ ions with high affinity and presents limited redox potential. CRISPR/Cas9-mediated deletion of mCrip2 impaired myogenesis, likely due to Cu accumulation in cells. CUT&RUN and transcriptome analyses revealed its association with gene promoters, including MyoD1 and metallothioneins, suggesting a novel Cu-responsive regulatory role for mCrip2. Our work describes the significance of mCrip2 in skeletal muscle differentiation and metal homeostasis, expanding understanding of the Cu-network in myoblasts.
Copper (Cu) is essential for various cellular processes, including respiration and stress response, but imbalances can cause serious health issues. This study reveals a new Cu-binding protein (Cu-BP) involved in muscle development in primary myoblasts. Using unbiased metalloproteomic techniques and high throughput sequencing, we identified mCrip2 as a key Cu-BP found in cell nuclei and cytoplasm. mCrip2 binds up to four Cu+ ions and has a limited redox potential. Deleting mCrip2 using CRISPR/Cas9 disrupted muscle formation due to Cu accumulation. Further analyses showed that mCrip2 regulates the expression of genes like MyoD1, essential for muscle differentiation, and metallothioneins in response to copper supplementation. This research highlights the importance of mCrip2 in muscle development and metal homeostasis, providing new insights into the Cu-network in cells.
