Variation in Layer-Specific Tear Properties of the Human Aorta Along Its Length and Circumference: Implications for Spatial Susceptibility to Dissection Initiation
Authors: Sokolis Dimitrios P. 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Hemodynamic variations influence the location of entry tears in aortic dissection. This study investigates whether variations in tear strength across the human aorta contribute to these clinical manifestations. Circumferential and axial strips were collected from nine axial and two circumferential sites along each autopsied aorta, yielding 1,188 samples (11 aortas × 18 sites × 2 directions × 3 layers per site). These samples underwent tear testing to assess tear strength and tear energy, constituting resistance to tear propagation. Adventitial tear parameters were significantly higher than those of the intima and media, with no significant differences between the latter two, supporting the observation that entry tears typically occur in the inner wall. Tear propagation angles were approximately 15 and 75 degrees for circumferential and axial medial strips, and 30 and 45 degrees for circumferential and axial strips of the intima and adventitia, with minimal variation along the aorta. These findings indicate that the media, and to a lesser extent the other layers, have higher resistance to axial tearing compared to circumferential tearing, aligning with the clinical observation of circumferentially directed tears. Intimal and adventitial tear parameters increased modestly along the aorta, while medial parameters varied less, explaining why entry tears rarely originate in the abdominal aorta. Tear parameters in inner and outer quadrants were similar at most axial locations, except for dissimilar tear propagation angles of the intima and adventitia in the proximal aorta (especially the arch), explaining why entry tears seldom involve the entire circumference.

Abstract
During the service life of oil and gas pipelines, welded joints are critical areas that are susceptible to fracture. This study aims to investigate the influence of mechanical heterogeneity on the mechanical fields at the crack tip and the crack propagation paths in welded joints. Firstly, the microstructure of the welded joint was analyzed, and the distribution of mechanical properties in specific local areas was determined through hardness tests. Subsequently, the mechanical properties of the dissimilar materials within the welded joint were characterized using the “Field” subroutine, and the influence of mechanical heterogeneity on the mechanical fields at the crack tip was examined. Additionally, the crack propagation paths at various locations of welded joints, influenced by mechanical heterogeneity, were analyzed from a mechanical perspective. Finally, based on the identified crack propagation paths, the variation of mechanical fields at the crack tip during the propagation process was captured using de-bonding techniques. The results reveal significant differences in the microstructure across different regions, affecting the distribution of mechanical properties. Mechanical heterogeneity influences the distribution of mechanical fields at the crack tip, thereby affecting the trajectory of crack propagation. Stress corrosion cracking tends to propagate toward regions with higher yield strength, as increased yield strength facilitates crack propagation. Crack propagation redistributes the stress-strain field at the crack tip, resulting in an unloading process that relieves stress at the crack tip. Consequently, the stress-strain at the tip of the propagating crack is lower than that at the stationary crack tip.

Since its inception, no formal content analysis of the Sport Management Education Journal has been conducted. Thus, the purpose of this study was to examine article characteristics, assess topic diversity, determine predominant themes and methodological frameworks, and identify editorship and authorship gender differences. A total of 185 articles published by the Sport Management Education Journal from 2007 to 2023 were analyzed. The authors found that research articles were the most prevalent. A significant relationship between gender and article type and content was identified, as women were more likely to publish research-oriented articles than men. Women also accounted for 54.1% of first authors and 48.8% of all identified authors. As the first content analysis conducted on the Sport Management Education Journal, this study provides a needed inspection of the only sport management journal committed to disseminating pedagogical knowledge.

Abstract
High relative velocities and large distances in space-based quantum communication with satellites in lower earth orbits can lead to significant Doppler shifts and delays of the signal impairing the achievable performance if uncorrected. We analyze the influence of systematic and stochastic Doppler shift and delay in the specific case of a continuous variable quantum key distribution (CV-QKD) protocol and identify the generalized correlation function, the ambiguity function, as a decisive measure of performance loss. Investigating the generalized correlations as well as private capacity bounds for specific choices of spectral amplitude shape (Gaussian, single- and double-sided Lorentzian), we find that this choice has a significant impact on the robustness of the quantum communication protocol to spectral and temporal synchronization errors. We conclude that optimizing the pulse shape can be a building block in the resilient design of quantum network infrastructure.

Abstract
Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) remains a cornerstone in managing prostate cancer. However, its recurrence often leads to more aggressive castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Although second-line androgen receptor signaling inhibition (ARSi) treatments such as enzalutamide and abiraterone are available, their effectiveness against CRPC is only transient. High-dose testosterone (Hi-T) has recently emerged as a promising treatment for CRPC, primarily through the suppression of E2F and MYC signaling. However, the roles of Rb family proteins in influencing this therapeutic response remain debated. In this study, we utilized a CRPC patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model that includes both Rb pathway-proficient and -deficient cell populations based on positive or negative expression of RB family genes. Single-cell RNA-seq analysis revealed that Rb-proficient cells displayed a robust response to Hi-T, while Rb-deficient cells exhibited significant resistance. Notably, our analysis indicated an increased enrichment of a hypoxia signature in the Rb-deficient cell population. Further studies in RB1-silenced CRPC cell lines showed that the treatment of a HIF-1α inhibitor can restore the sensitivity of Rb-deficient cells to high-dose DHT treatment. In conclusion, our research provides new molecular insights into the CRPC tumor cell responses to Hi-T and proposes a new strategy to resensitize Rb-deficient CRPC cells to Hi-T treatment.

Abstract
The Sub-Mesoscale Ocean Dynamics Experiment (S-MODE) is a NASA Earth Ventures Suborbital investigation designed to test the hypothesis that oceanic frontogenesis and the kilometer-scale (“submesoscale”) instabilities that accompany it make important contributions to vertical exchange of climate and biological variables in the upper ocean. These processes have been difficult to resolve in observations, making model validation challenging. A necessary step toward testing the hypothesis was to make accurate measurements of upper-ocean velocity fields over a broad range of scales and to relate them to the observed variability of vertical transport and surface forcing. A further goal was to examine the relationship between surface velocity, temperature and chlorophyll measured by remote sensing, and their depth-dependent distributions, within and beneath the surface boundary layer. To achieve these goals, we used aircraft-based remote sensing, satellite remote sensing, ships, drifter deployments, and a fleet of autonomous vehicles. The observational component of S-MODE consisted of three campaigns, all conducted in the Pacific Ocean approximately 100 km west of San Francisco during 2021-2023 fall and spring. S-MODE was enabled by recent developments in remote sensing technology that allowed operational airborne observation of ocean surface velocity fields and by advances in autonomous instrumentation that allowed coordinated sampling with dozens of uncrewed vehicles at sea. The coordinated use of remote sensing measurements from three aircraft with arrays of remotely operated vehicles and other in situ measurements is a major novelty of S-MODE. All S-MODE data is freely available, and its use is encouraged.
The paradoxes of sustainable HRM: Insights through the perspective of common good, green, social responsibility, and triple bottom line

Published: February 2025

Background With the increasing demand for sustainability in traditional human resource management (HRM), firms in developing countries struggle to meet both efficiency and sustainability needs. In response to this deficiency, the present study proposes a sustainable human resource management (SHRM) model focusing on the interaction of SHRM pillars with the perceived barriers and paradoxical views among human resource (HR) managers. Objective This paper employs an exploratory qualitative case study of how SHRM is perceived from the perspective of HR managers and their paradoxical views and barriers during the process. Methods Drawing on paradox theory and derive the data from four semi-structured interviews. The study engaged with a qualitative research tool using ATLAS.ti 24. Results The study found that the four pillars of SHRM are dominantly present, namely, socially responsible human resource management, green human resource management, triple bottom line, and common good human resource management, while another pillar of SHRM, namely, triple bottom line found a weak balance between planet, profit, and people, which significantly shows an efficiency-substance paradox. Other paradoxes were identified, namely, the efficiency-responsibility paradox and the present-future paradox. Conclusions We present an integrated model of interaction between pillars, barriers, and paradoxes of SHRM practices to guide HR managers in decision-making, planning, and evaluation. The study implies that although firms have demonstrated SHRM practices, external and internal support is certainly needed to fully assist them in managing SHRM and their paradoxical views and concerns.

Published: February 2025

To enhance the prediction accuracy of short-term wind turbine power prediction models, this study proposes an incremental prediction model based on Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM). Initially, the LSTM module is employed to process data related to wind turbines, and the key parameters of the network (hidden layer units, learning rate, batch size, time step) are estimated using the discrete particle swarm optimization algorithm (DPSO) Subsequently, incremental learning is introduced to dynamically update the model, and a merged weight updating strategy is adopted to alleviate potential overfitting during the incremental training process. In this study, publicly available wind energy datasets are used for experimentation (with a data time interval of 5 minutes), and compared and validated against three other framework models: overall LSTM, Informer, and Paddle. Experiments show that the MAE value of the proposed model is 0.137 and the RMSE value is 0.199, which is comparable to the performance of the overall LSTM model (with fluctuations of 2% and 0.7% respectively). The average training time for the proposed model is 14,773.4 ms, representing an 81% reduction compared to other models.

Published: February 2025

Objectives Head and neck mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma, a rare subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, has received limited attention regarding its prognosis. This study aimed to illuminate the clinical characteristics and identify prognostic factors for head and neck MALT lymphoma, intending to develop an accessible tool for clinicians to predict long-term survival probabilities and inform therapeutic strategies. Methods This multicentre retrospective study enrolled 424 head and neck MALT lymphoma patients from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program (SEER) database. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO)-Cox regression analysis identified independent prognostic factors for overall survival (OS), leading to the development of an age-based nomogram predicting OS probabilities at 5, 10, and 15 years. Evaluation included time-dependent receiver operating curve (ROC), calibration curves, and decision curve analysis. Results Multivariate Cox analysis highlighted age exceeding 65 years [hazards ratio (HR): 2.97, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.94-4.57; P < 0.001] and unmarried status (HR: 1.58, 95% CI: 1.07-2.33, P = 0.023) as significantly associated with shorter OS, while black race correlated with longer OS (HR: 0.25, 95% CI: 0.09-0.69, P = 0.007). The age-based nomogram, integrating these factors, demonstrated efficacy in predicting 5-year [area under the curve (AUC): 0.640] and 10-year OS (AUC: 0.705), with an impressive AUC of 0.842 for the 15-year OS probability in the training cohort. Decision curve analysis affirmed the nomogram’s clinical utility, surpassing individual factors. Consistent results were observed in validation cohorts. Conclusion Our study provides crucial insights into head and neck MALT lymphoma, filling gaps in understanding its clinical landscape. The validated age-based nomogram serves as a practical tool for clinicians, offering enhanced prognostic precision and guiding personalized treatment strategies in this understudied lymphoma subtype.

Published: February 2025

Fiber metal laminates (FMLs) are advanced super-hybrid sandwich materials. They have been increasingly used in the aerospace industry. However, the low formability of heterogeneous FMLs in the traditional forming process restricts its large-scale application. This paper proposed the idea of introducing extra normal stresses to improve the formability of FMLs by using flexible die forming. The carbon fiber reinforced aluminum alloy laminates (CARALL) were prepared. A flexible die forming finite element model was established, and a platform was constructed to investigate the effects of laminate layup structures and the flexible die hardness. The mechanism of formability improvement was analyzed. The results indicate that the formability of the FMLs is better compared with the carbon fiber sheets. The formability can be increased significantly with a larger flexible die hardness. The 3 + 2 type laminate showed the highest improvement in formability and ultimate limit states per unit thickness. It is formed by alternately stacking three layers of aluminum alloy and two layers of carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP). The specific order of layers is AL/CFRP/AL/CFRP/AL. The matrix type of CFRP is thermosetting epoxy resin. The maximum improvement in formability and the load limit per unit thickness of the 3 + 2 type layup structures were 28.8% and 4.94 N/mm, respectively. The mechanism of formability improvement was analyzed. The mechanism analysis showed that the additional normal stresses through a flexible die forming reduced the spherical tensor of stress. The additional normal stresses can promote damage closure during plastic deformation. It also improved the material’s Lode parameter, increasing the formability. This study demonstrates that flexible die forming helps enhance the deformation capacity of laminates and is a potential method for preparing high-performance, high-plasticity super-hybrid material components.

Objective To examine the diagnostic and prognostic value of multimodal ultrasound and serum human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) and Ki-67 antigen (Ki-67) testing for breast cancer. Methods We enrolled 65 patients with breast cancer admitted to the Tianjin Fourth Centre Hospital between March 2018 and March 2019 as the study group, while the control group consisted of 65 patients with benign breast nodules admitted during the same time period. All cases underwent ultrasound elastography (UE), contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS), serum examination, and Ki-67 and HER2 testing to determine the differences in multimodal ultrasound parameters and biomarkers, respectively, between the two groups and their relationship to the pathological features of breast cancer; ROC curves were generated to determine the accuracy of the combined examination in predicting breast cancer prognosis. Results The study group had significantly higher UE score and CEUS-PI, significantly lower time to peak (TTP) and mean transit time (MTT) levels than the control group ( P < 0.001), and significantly higher serum HER2 and tumor tissue Ki-67 expression ( P < 0.05). Conclusion It is possible to improve the breast cancer diagnosis rate by using multimodal ultrasound in conjunction with serum Ki-67 and HER2 testing.
