AbstractThe B cell receptor immunoglobulin (Ig) gene repertoires of marginal zone (MZ) lymphoproliferations were analyzed in order to obtain insight into their ontogenetic relationships. Our cohort included cases with MZ lymphomas (n = 488), i.e. splenic (SMZL), nodal (NMZL) and extranodal (ENMZL), as well as provisional entities (n = 76), according to the WHO classification. The most striking Ig gene repertoire skewing was observed in SMZL. However, restrictions were also identified in all other MZ lymphomas studied, particularly ENMZL, with significantly different Ig gene distributions depending on the primary site of involvement. Cross‐entity comparisons of the MZ Ig sequence dataset with a large dataset of Ig sequences (MZ‐related or not; n = 65 837) revealed four major clusters of cases sharing homologous (‘public’) heavy variable complementarity‐determining region 3. These clusters included rearrangements from SMZL, ENMZL (gastric, salivary gland, ocular adnexa), chronic lymphocytic leukemia, but also rheumatoid factors and non‐malignant splenic MZ cells. In conclusion, different MZ lymphomas display biased immunogenetic signatures indicating distinct antigen exposure histories. The existence of rare public stereotypes raises the intriguing possibility that common, pathogen‐triggered, immune‐mediated mechanisms may result in diverse B lymphoproliferations due to targeting versatile progenitor B cells and/or operating in particular microenvironments.

Psychometric defensibility of the Intervention Selection Profile‐Social Skills (ISP‐SS) with students at risk for behavioral concerns
Authors: Kilgus Stephen P. , Eklund Katie , von der Embse Nathaniel P. 
Published: November 2018

AbstractThe purpose of the current study was to examine the validity and diagnostic accuracy of the Intervention Selection Profile—Social Skills (ISP‐SS), a brief social skills assessment tool intended for use with students in need of Tier 2 intervention. Participants included 160 elementary and middle school students who had been identified through universal screening as at risk for behavioral concerns. Teacher participants (
n = 71) rated each of these students using both the ISP‐SS and the
Social Skills Improvement System—Rating Scales (SSiS‐RS), with the latter measure serving as the criterion within validity and diagnostic accuracy analyses. Confirmatory factor analysis supported ISP‐SS structural validity, indicating ISP‐SS items broadly conformed to a single “Social Skills” factor. Follow‐up analyses suggested ISP‐SS broad scale scores demonstrated adequate internal consistency reliability, with hierarchical omega coefficient equal to 0.86. Correlational analyses supported the concurrent validity of ISP‐SS items, finding each ISP‐SS item to be moderately or highly related to its corresponding SSiS‐RS subscale. Finally, analyses indicated three of the seven ISP‐SS items that demonstrated sufficient diagnostic accuracy; however, findings suggest additional revisions are needed if the ISP‐SS is to be appropriate for use in schools. Implications for practice and future research are discussed.

Two‐Field Axion Inflation and the Swampland Constraint in the Flux‐Scaling Scenario
Authors: Damian Cesar , Loaiza‐Brito Oscar 
Published: November 2018

AbstractBased on the flux‐scaling scenario we study a model consisting on Type IIB string theory compactified on a Calabi‐Yau manifold with a frozen complex structure in the presence of generic fluxes. The model contains (meta)stable Minkowski and de Sitter vacua as well as inflationary directions driven by two independent linear combination of axions. Due to a numerical control by fluxes, we show that cosmological parameters as the spectral index, tensor‐to‐scalar ratio and non‐Gaussianities can be kept within observed bounds while preserving the desired hierarchies on physical scales. Moreover we compute the deviation of the inflationary trajectories from geodesics on field space in terms of the fluxes showing that for some regions, they fulfill the recent proposed swampland criterion for multi‐field scenarios.
Process safety in upstream: Risk based operations in vaca muerta

Published: November 2018

This work has been developed by YPF Upstream Nonconventional Oil Business Unit (NOC), which was the first asset to develop the nonconventional Vaca Muerta formation in Argentina, in 2011. Currently, with more than 520 Shale Oil producing Wells and 15 onshore facilities, remote field operation challenges have created the need to study some key topics such as applying Operation Management by exception.From the beginning of the nonconventional assets development, instrumentation, and telemetry systems were designed under the concepts of “unmanned operation facility” and “real time decision making,” minimizing people risk exposure inside the facilities. Operation Management by exception through a unified alarm system including facilities and wells becomes essential due to the exponential growth of the variables to be monitored and controlled. The lack of a consolidated alarm management system results in an “overloaded” situation, which started in 2015 with more than 160 alarm activations in an average time of 10 min, and activation peaks of 1000 alarms every 10 min. Thus, the use of a regular alarm system was proven to be not viable or practical.With focus on reaching excellence in production management and safe operations in nonconventional fields, a decision support Center (called CIC), was implemented for the first time in YPF Upstream operations. Its function, among others, was to deploy risk‐based operations which are aligned with Process Safety international standards. Seeking for a “Predictive Alarm System,” a dedicated Process Engineer was incorporated to the CIC to work along with an existing multidisciplinary team in alarm management process. This team was integrated by maintenance engineers and control systems specialists. The alarm philosophy used was based on the recommended international practices, and thus, a hard rationalization work was developed resulting in “Robust” to “Stable” status of alarm system performance, reaching less than 10 activations per hour.In this article, the risk‐based alarm management methods are described and analyzed, together with the way in which this development was addressed with the operation, and the benefits obtained. Within these benefits, there is a field operation culture change in attending alarms with standardized actions which are formalized in alarm response manuals. © 2018 The Authors.

Published: November 2018

AbstractThe use of field robots can greatly decrease the amount of time, effort, and associated risk compared to if human workers were to carryout certain tasks such as disaster response. However, transportability and reliability remain two main issues for most current robot systems. To address the issue of transportability, we have developed a lightweight modularizable platform named AeroArm. To address the issue of reliability, we utilize a multimodal sensing approach, combining the use of multiple sensors and sensor types, and the use of different detection algorithms, as well as active continuous closed‐loop feedback to accurately estimate the state of the robot with respect to the environment. We used Challenge 2 of the 2017 Mohammed Bin Zayed International Robotics Competition as an example outdoor manipulation task, demonstrating the capabilities of our robot system and approach in achieving reliable performance in the fields, and ranked fifth place internationally in the competition.

Published: November 2018

Nowadays, AMOLED keeps penetrating display market and the shipment of devices with AMOLED display is expected to grow above 800 million unit by 2021. In order to reduce the production cost, many panel makers have started paying more attention in RGB printing technology due to its higher utilization rate in material and lower production cost on equipment.In this article, current approach of RGB printing technology was introduced along with its current limitations in production. In the end, a production cost analysis was conducted on 55 inch 4k AMOLED display from Gen 8.5 line via RGB printing and WOLED method.Lower production cost on 55 inch product from printing method suggested once bottlenecks on RGB printing are removed, printed AMOLED Gen 8.5 line can compete with fully depreciated WOLED Gen 8.5 line in 3 years assuming both of them under same yielding rate and material maturity.
15.2: Invited Paper: Organic LCDs on TAC film: low‐cost, area‐scalable flexible displays with glass‐like optical performance
Authors: Cain Paul A. 
Published: November 2018

Flexible Organic LCD (OLCD) is a new display technology, developed by FlexEnable, based on organic thin‐film transistors (OTFTs) on plastic substrates. With optical performance being one of the most important attributes of any display, achieving glass‐like optical performance on plastic is a key requirement for mass market adoption.We explain how the use of low temperature processes (below 100°C) not only allows the use of plastic substrates (TAC) with near ideal optical properties, but also brings cost, yield and scalability advantages in manufacturing compared to flexible display approaches using inorganic TFTs that require much higher processing temperatures.
26.4: Invited Paper: Light Extraction Improvement by High Refractive Index Nanocrystal Materials for OLED Displays and Lightings
Authors: Jao Vincent 
Published: November 2018

While there are many known ways to improve light extraction, however, the cost‐effective manufacturing process and the requirement to achieve high quality image severely restrict how light can be extracted. Pixelligent's solution processable high refractive index zirconia materials allow for the creation of high index, transparent, low‐haze nanocomposites that can build the necessary light extraction structures. The application of Pixelligent's PixClear® high‐refractive index (> 1.7) zirconia nanocomposite films onto glass or flexible substrates by inkjet printing is discussed in this paper. The optically clear nanocomposite formulation comprises zirconia nanocrystals (< 10 nm in diameter), a UV‐curable binder material, a high‐boiling point solvent, and with (or without) scatters. Clear films with > 90% transmission and films containing scattering particles have been printed as uniform layers and patterned structures by inkjet printing. A broad range of film thicknesses are achievable for inkjet printing, ranging as low as tens of nanometers and up to 100 microns. Main advantages of inkjet printing are the material conservation during deposition and complex patterning of the printed material.For this study, we demonstrate the ability of Pixelligent's zirconia nanocomposites to improve the light extraction and can be inkjet printed, emphasizing a new way in which high‐refractive index materials are being incorporated into devices for OLED lighting and displays.
48.1: Developments in Fast Cleaning of Thin Films without Wrapping
Authors: Hamilton Sheila 
Published: November 2018

In the display industry cleanliness of the materials used to build up the display is vital to avoid defects and most major manufacturers use rubber roller contact cleaning systems to remove any particles of contamination. As the films used in displays and backlights get thinner, this type of cleaning equipment can result in process issues relating to the wrapping of the sheets of film around the contact roller due to a variety of adhesion forces.This paper reports the development work done on a new cleaning roller system to alter several of the factors affecting the adhesion forces between the roller and the film.The work reported includes

Developing a new formulation of cleaning rubber to minimise tribocharging of the film
Development of a new functional surface for the cleaning roller to modify the Van de Waals forces between the roller and the film
Minimising the static charge environment within the equipmentThis new cleaning system can process sheets of film down to 27.5 microns thick at speeds up to 20m/min without creasing, wrapping or scratching.
Facile Synthesis of Carbon/g‐C3N4 Nanocomposites as Metal‐Free Photocatalyst with Enhanced Visible‐Light‐Responsive Photocatalytic Properties
Authors: Ma Shuaishuai , Xu Peng , Li Xinyao , Ye Zhaolian , Xue Jinjuan 
Published: November 2018

AbstractThe development of highly effective metal‐free photocatalysts in place of traditional photocatalysts is of great significance for environmental remediation by utilization of solar energy. In this work, a new 2D carbon/g‐C3N4 metal‐free photocatalyst was designed and fabricated via one‐step thermal treatment of cyanamide and spent tea leaves (STL). The as‐prepared samples were fully characterized and the results revealed that carbon nanosheets are evenly attached on the surface of g‐C3N4 by chemical bonds rather than simple physical stacking, which is beneficial to the strong interface interaction. The intimate interfacial bonding of carbon materials with g‐C3N4 exhibit enlarged specific surface area, broadened photo‐response range, efficient photo‐induced electron migration as well as high stability. Thus, the carbon/g‐C3N4 photocatalyst showed remarkable enhanced photocatalytic activities in the degradation of antibiotic ciprofloxacin (CIP) in aqueous solution and gaseous benzene than that of pristine g‐C3N4 under visible light. Furthermore, a possible photocatalytic mechanism for the improved photocatalytic performance over carbon/g‐C3N4 nanocomposites was proposed. This research work can promote the exploration on facile synthesis of total metal‐free carbon/g‐C3N4 photocatalysts with biomass as the carbon source and its application in environmental pollutants elimination.

Published: November 2018

ABSTRACTObjectiveTo study the association between the level of Cesarean hysterotomy and the presence of large uterine scar defects 6–9 months after delivery.MethodsThis was a two‐center, randomized, single‐blind trial of a surgical procedure with masked assessment of the principal outcome under study. Women without a history of Cesarean section (CS) who underwent emergency CS at cervical dilatation ≥ 5 cm were randomized to high or low incision. Hysterotomy was performed 2 cm above and 2 cm below the plica vesicouterina in the high and low incision groups, respectively. Women were examined using saline contrast sonohysterography to assess the appearance of the hysterotomy scar 6–9 months after delivery. The main outcome was presence of a large scar defect, defined as the remaining myometrial thickness over the defect being ≤ 2.5 mm. Secondary outcomes were perinatal outcome, operative complications within 8 weeks after delivery and long‐term outcome in a subsequent pregnancy.ResultsOf 122 patients enrolled in the trial, 114 were assessed by ultrasound examination, of whom 55 were randomized to high and 59 to low CS incision. Large scar defects were seen in four (7%) women in the high‐incision group and in 24 (41%) in the low‐incision group (P < 0.001; odds ratio, 8.7 (95% CI, 2.8–27.4)). There were no differences in operative complications and perinatal outcomes between the two groups. The median follow‐up time was 4 years and 7 months, during which 56 (49%) women had a subsequent pregnancy. No significant differences were observed in the rate of complications in subsequent pregnancy and delivery between women who had low and those who had high incision at the index CS.ConclusionLow Cesarean hysterotomy level in women in advanced labor is associated with higher incidence of large scar defects detected by transvaginal ultrasound examination 6–9 months after delivery.

Neuroaesthetics and art's diversity and universality
Authors: Nadal Marcos , Chatterjee Anjan 
Published: November 2018

There is a duality to art. It is enormously varied and culturally diverse, and yet it is also universal, common to all humans. Art's variability and distinctiveness seem to elude science, better equipped to account for constant or regular phenomena. We believe that art's cultural particularity can be reconciled with its biological universality. The emergence of variability and distinctiveness from common mechanisms is at the core of biological explanation; it is a basic fact of life, and a basic fact of brain function. The individual, cultural, and historical diversity of art, both in its production and its appreciation, owe to basic features of the organization and function of the human brain. Each encounter with an artwork engages flexible neural networks that are modulated by context, expectations, emotional states, goals, and experience. Because these factors change from one occasion to another, each encounter with art has its distinct flavor. Repeated encounters with art over the course of a lifetime lead people develop personal preferences for art, as the network connections become strengthened in unique ways. These flexible and adaptable networks evolved in humans as a consequence of the relaxation of genetic constraints on the development of brain regions involved in orchestrating network dynamics, enabling a greater impact of learning and experience. In sum, art is universal and common because it arises from neural systems that are common to all humans, and it is variable and diverse because those neural systems evolved to be flexible, attuned to momentary contexts and goals, and changing through a lifetime of experiences.This article is categorized under:

Income-Related Gaps in Early Child Cognitive Development: Why Are They Larger in the United States Than in the United Kingdom, Australia, and Canada?
Authors: Bradbury Bruce , Waldfogel Jane , Washbrook Elizabeth 
Published: November 2018

AbstractPrevious research has documented significantly larger income-related gaps in children’s early cognitive development in the United States than in the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia. In this study, we investigate the extent to which this is a result of a more unequal income distribution in the United States. We show that although incomes are more unequal in the United States than elsewhere, a given difference in real income is associated with larger gaps in child test scores there than in the three other countries. In particular, high-income families in the United States appear to translate the same amount of financial resources into greater cognitive advantages relative to the middle-income group than those in the other countries studied. We compare inequalities in other kinds of family characteristics and show that higher income levels are disproportionately concentrated among families with advantageous demographic characteristics in the United States. Our results underline the fact that the same degree of income inequality can translate into different disparities in child development, depending on the distribution of other family resources.
