Macroporous Nanostructured Nb2O5 with Surface Nb4+ for Enhanced Lithium Ion Storage Properties
Authors: Li Shuang , Schmidt Charles N. , Xu Qian , Cao Xi , Cao Guozhong 
Published: April 2016

AbstractMacroporous Nb2O5 (MP‐Nb2O5) has been synthesized using dispersed polystyrene microspheres (PS) as template followed by annealing in air. The structural characterization showed that the diameters of the macropores are around 200 nm and the average particle size of the composition is 20–50 nm. XPS revealed the presence of low valence Nb4+ and oxygen vacancies on the surface of the resulting product introduced during the pyrolysis of PS. Such a unique combination of macroporous nanostructure and tetravalent niobium ions enables the electrode with superior lithium ion insertion properties, such as high specific capacity (≈190 mA h g−1 at 0.5C) and rate capability. Even at a current density of 1.6 A g−1, an average capacity of 129.2 mA h g−1 can still be obtained. These findings demonstrate MP‐Nb2O5 is a promising candidate for high‐rate lithium ion storage applications.

Published: April 2016

AbstractMetal–organic frameworks (MOFs) as chemical sensors have developed rapidly in recent years. There have been many papers concerning this field and interest is still growing. The reason is that the specific merits of MOFs can be utilized to enhance sensitivity and selectivity by various energy/charge transfers occurring among different ligands, ligand, and metal centers, such as from ligands to metal centers or metal centers to ligands, as well as from MOF skeletons to guest species. This review intends to provide an update on recent progress in various applications of different MOF‐based sensors on the basis of their luminescent and electrochemical responses towards small molecules, gas molecules, ions (cations and anions), pH, humidity, temperature, and biomolecules. MOF‐based sensors function by utilizing different mechanisms, including luminescent responses of “turn‐on” and “turn‐off”, as well as electrochemical responses.

AbstractContrast enhanced computed tomography (CECT) is a non-destructive imaging technique used for the assessment of composition and structure of articular cartilage and meniscus. Due to structural and compositional differences between these tissues, diffusion and distribution of contrast agents may differ in cartilage and meniscus. The aim of this study is to determine the diffusion kinematics of a novel iodine based cationic contrast agent (CA2+) in cartilage and meniscus. Cylindrical cartilage and meniscus samples (d = 6 mm,h ≈ 2 mm) were harvested from healthy bovine knee joints (n = 10), immersed in isotonic cationic contrast agent (20 mgI/mL), and imaged using a micro-CT scanner at 26 time points up to 48 h. Subsequently, normalized X-ray attenuation and contrast agent diffusion flux, as well as water, collagen and proteoglycan (PG) contents in the tissues were determined. The contrast agent distributions within cartilage and meniscus were different. In addition, the normalized attenuation and diffusion flux were higher (p < 0.05) in cartilage. Based on these results, diffusion kinematics vary between cartilage and meniscus. These tissue specific variations can affect the interpretation of CECT images and should be considered when cartilage and meniscus are assessed simultaneously.

AbstractAmyloid‐beta (Aβ) peptide oligomerization plays a central role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD), and Aβ oligomers are collectively considered an appealing therapeutic target for the treatment of AD. However, the molecular mechanisms leading to the pathologic accumulation of oligomers are unclear, and the exact structural composition of oligomers is being debated. Using targeted and quantitative mass spectrometry, we reveal site‐specific Aβ autocleavage during the early phase of aggregation, producing a typical Aβ fragment signature and that truncated Aβ peptides can form stable oligomeric complexes with full‐length Aβ peptide. We show that the use of novel anti‐Aβ antibodies raised against these truncated Aβ isoforms allows for monitoring and targeting the accumulation of truncated Aβ fragments. Antibody‐enabled screening of transgenic models of AD as well as human postmortem brain tissue and cerebrospinal fluid revealed that aggregation‐associated Aβ cleavage is a highly relevant clinical feature of AD.
Pornography Addiction in Adults: A Systematic Review of Definitions and Reported Impact
Authors: Duffy Athena , Dawson David L. , das Nair Roshan 
Published: April 2016

ABSTRACTIntroductionSelf-perceived pornography addiction (SPPA) has increasingly emerged as a concept in research and popular culture, and commentators warn of the reported negative impact that it has. Despite this, “pornography or porn addiction” is not a formally recognized disorder and there is disagreement among researchers regarding its definition or even its existence. Therefore, how SPPA is operationalized often varies, and this is likely to influence the conclusions made about the impact of SPPA.AimThis review aimed to examine what the supposed impact of SPPA is, and how the concept is operationalized.MethodsA systematic review of quantitative and qualitative peer-reviewed journal articles was conducted. The following databases were searched up to November 2015: CINAHL (2001–2015), Embase (1974–2015), Medline (1946–2015), PsychARTICLES (1980), and PsychInfo (1806–2015). Terms used were porn*, sexually explicit material, SEM, erotic*, nonparaphilic, cyberpornography, addict*, problematic, excess*, compul*, impul*, impact, effec*, behav*, and cause. An asterisk after a term means that all terms that begin with that root were included in the search.Main Outcome MeasuresA review of the the current literature pertaining to SPPA and its reported impact.ResultsWe found that SPPA is most frequently operationalized as excessive pornography use and negative consequences. As a result, researchers tended to focus on the frequency of pornography use and related impact as determinants of SPPA. SPPA is reported to affect users and their partners in similar ways, such as increased feelings of isolation and relationship breakdowns. However, we found some methodologic limitations of the primary studies, which limit the strength of the conclusions that can be drawn. Limitations include the lack of representative samples and inadequate measurements of SPPA and its impact.ConclusionThere still exist a debate regarding the definition and etiology of SPPA as distinct from self-perceived sex addiction. As such, the research landscape is shaped by different theoretical perspectives. Without evidence to suggest one theoretical position as superior to another, clinicians might be at risk of recommending treatment that is in line with their theoretical perspective (or personal biases) but at odds with the motivations driving an individual to engage in particular sexual behaviors. In light of these findings, the review concludes with recommendations for future research.

Abstract
Clinopyroxene binary solid solutions in the systems diopside–hedenbergite, diopside–aegirine, and hedenbergite–aegirine have been synthesized. Based on data from X-ray diffraction studies, the unit-cell parameters of these solid solutions have been refined, and their concentration dependences have been established. These clinopyroxene series are near-ideal continuous solid solutions. The partition of Mg and Fe between the diopside–hedenbergite binary solid solutions and biotite of the phlogopite–annite series was studied by the method of cation exchange equilibria at 650 and 750 °C and 2 kbar. The application of KF solution as a reaction medium permitted achieving equilibrium in a considerably shorter time and from its both sides. The partition of Mg and Fe is near-ideal within the experimental error. The experimental results were compared with results of calculations based on literature data on the thermodynamic properties of pure end-members.
Genesis of apatite ores of the Magan massif (northern East Siberia)
Authors: Panina L.I. , Isakova A.T. 
Published: April 2016

Abstract
Having applied the methods of comprehensive melt inclusion studies, we elucidated the formation conditions for one of the largest apatite deposits in the Maimecha–Kotui province, located in the exocontact zone of the Magan alkaline ultramafic carbonatite massif, in apoquartzite fenite-aegirinites. We examined the most P-enriched exocontact nepheline-containing aegirinites and ijolite veins in them. In veined ijiolite, primary silicate–salt melt inclusions in nepheline and syngenetic primary silicate, alkali sulfate–carbonate, and carbonate melt inclusions in apatite were found. Primary alkali sulfate–carbonate melt inclusions were also identified in apatite from exocontact nepheline-containing aegirinites. Detailed analysis of the inclusions showed that nepheline of the apatite-containing ijolite veins crystallized at 1100–1120 °C from homogeneous nephelinite melt, which was enriched in SO3, Cl, CO2, and H2O and locally contaminated with quartz sandstones and quartzites. At lower temperatures (either at the final stages of nepheline crystallization or at the early stages of apatite formation), the melt was already heterogeneous (probably, because of immiscibility) and consisted of more Si-saturated, alkali sulfate–carbonate, and carbonate fractions. Apatite crystallized mainly from separated alkali sulfate–carbonate melts: at 1080–980 °C in veined ijolites and at 940–760 °C in aegirinites. Alkali sulfate–carbonate melts in veined ijolites were enriched in SO3 but depleted in P as compared with those in aegirinites. At the final stage, apatite crystallized from P-poor carbonate melts.
The ‘Logic of Gift’: Inspiring Behavior in Organizations Beyond the Limits of Duty and Exchange
Authors: Baviera Tomás , English William , Guillén Manuel 
Published: April 2016

ABSTRACT:Giving without the expectation of reward is difficult to understand in organizational contexts. In opposition to a logic based on self-interest or a sense of duty, a “logic of gift” has been proposed as a way to understand the phenomenon of free, unconditional giving. However, the rationale behind, and effects of, this logic have been under-explored. This paper responds by first clarifying the three logics of action—the logic of exchange, the logic of duty, and the logic of gift—and then explains how their balanced integration promises to enhance organizational life and outcomes. Having explicated the unique character and contributions of the logic of gift, the paper further suggests practical implications for management. Encouraging the logic of gift fosters more humane relationships within organizations and to enable individuals to be generous in ways that inspire trust and promote creativity.

AbstractObjectiveClosure of several New York City (NYC) hospitals after Hurricane Sandy caused an unanticipated, extended surge in patient demand at open hospitals. This study identified hospitals with a significant increase in mental-health-related emergency department, inpatient, and outpatient visits from Medicaid patients displaced by Hurricane Sandy.MethodsNYC Medicaid patients were classified into non-mutually-exclusive geographic categories corresponding to residence in areas served by Bellevue Hospital Center and Coney Island Hospital, the hurricane impact area, and all of NYC. For each geographic region, we compared the observed to the expected number of service visits in the 6 months after the storm. The expected number of visits was calculated from 2-year trends in mental health claims.ResultsTwenty-four facilities in all 5 NYC boroughs experienced patient redistribution from storm-affected areas. Eighteen facilities had a concurrent surge in total Medicaid patients, which suggested that redistribution had a greater impact on resource use at these locations.ConclusionsThe redistribution of Medicaid patients after Hurricane Sandy increased mental health service utilization at facilities not near flooded areas. Our findings can aid in surge capacity planning and thereby improve the continuity of mental health care after a natural disaster. (Disaster Med Public Health Preparedness. 2016;10:420–427)
