The AIA 1951 Lithographs: Contesting National Identity in Intermodern Prints
Authors: Clegg Michael 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
This essay examines the Artists’ International Association 1951 Lithographs, a series of prints produced to mark the Festival of Britain. It argues that these works, like others from the period, have received limited art-historical attention due to the dominance of a teleological narrative whose values are rooted in subsequent art movements. It proposes an alternative, ‘intermodern’ framing that emphasises continuity with pre-war ideals of democratising art ownership, and encourages historically informed analysis of the series’ images. In line with recent scholarship on the Festival of Britain, the interpretations offered show the series projecting an idea of Britain as harmonious, egalitarian and optimistic, in a way that supported the Labour government’s programme of social democratic reform. However, some images are also understood as manifesting ideological division and class conflict, as well as late imperial anxiety, in a way that ran counter to the Festival’s conceit of national harmony.

Abstract
Rapid and accessible testing was paramount in the management of the COVID-19 pandemic. Our university established KCL TEST: a SARS-CoV-2 asymptomatic testing programme that enabled sensitive and accessible PCR testing of SARS-CoV-2 RNA in saliva. Here, we describe our learnings and provide our blueprint for launching diagnostic laboratories, particularly in low-resource settings. Between December 2020 and July 2022, we performed 158277 PCRs for our staff, students, and their household contacts, free of charge. Our average turnaround time was 16 h and 37 min from user registration to result delivery. KCL TEST combined open-source automation and in-house non-commercial reagents, which allows for rapid implementation and repurposing. Importantly, our data parallel those of the UK Office for National Statistics, though we detected a lower positive rate and virtually no delta wave. Our observations strongly support regular asymptomatic community testing as an important measure for decreasing outbreaks and providing safe working spaces. Universities can therefore provide agile, resilient, and accurate testing that reflects the infection rate and trend of the general population. Our findings call for the early integration of academic institutions in pandemic preparedness, with capabilities to rapidly deploy highly skilled staff, as well as develop, test, and accommodate efficient low-cost pipelines.
Plant–microbial fuel cell for electrical generation through living plants: an internal resistance insight into the plant species used
Authors: Martinez Raymond Daniel Rodriguez 
Published: June 2024

AbstractClimate change is a global threat, the presence of which has encouraged the development and implementation of renewable energies, including plant–microbial fuel cells, which could generate 6 629 568–33 147 840 MWh per year due to their large-scale applicability. One of the main challenges associated with microbial cells is internal resistance—a parameter whose magnitude is influenced by several factors. In the case of plant–microbial fuel cells, adding a plant positively affects the mitigation of internal resistance. However, the species employed is expected to play an important role. In the present study, the objective was to determine as a general reference the internal resistance of cells using various plant species, among which were tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), black beans (Phaseolus vulgaris), aloe vera (Aloe vera), corn (Zea mays), and moss (Dicranidae). For this purpose, an experimental procedure was carried out to compare the manual voltage measurements with a free cell concerning the voltage obtained by adding an external resistor in series. The internal resistance values were determined as a function of the measured voltage, obtaining 177, 179, 175, 324, and 233 kΩ for aloe vera, corn, tomato, black beans, and moss, respectively. From this, it was shown that the roots of the plants represent an essential addition to the internal resistance of the cell in the short term. In contrast, plants with a C4 photosynthetic metabolism are more favourable, while C3 plants can also benefit from internal resistance during a more extended period of rhizodeposition.

ABSTRACT

Introduction
The DAPA-CKD study showed a protective effect of dapagliflozin on kidney function in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients with and without diabetes mellitus. Although dapagliflozin is expected to be effective also in CKD patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), its efficacy and safety in this population remain unknown because ADPKD was an exclusion criterion in the DAPA-CKD study. Therefore, we evaluated the effects of dapagliflozin in CKD patients with ADPKD.

Methods
We performed a retrospective observational study of seven patients with ADPKD treated with dapagliflozin at Toranomon Hospital, Tokyo, Japan. We analyzed changes in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) slope and annual height-corrected total kidney volume before and after starting dapagliflozin treatment.

Results
The median observation period after starting dapagliflozin was 20 months. Four patients received concomitant tolvaptan. The eGFR slope before and after initiation of dapagliflozin could be calculated in six patients and improved in all of them except the one who did not receive a renin-angiotensin system (RAS) inhibitor. Annual height-corrected total kidney volume increased in all patients. Concurrent tolvaptan treatment had no effect.

Conclusion
In CKD patients with ADPKD, dapagliflozin may increase kidney volume but may have a protective effect on kidney function when used concomitantly with RAS inhibitors.

ABSTRACT

Background
Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) and other markers of chronic kidney disease–mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) provide valuable insights into disease processes, treatment options and patient prognosis. However, limited research has explored potential associations with ethnicity or season, particularly in multi-ethnic populations residing in high-latitude regions.

Methods
We evaluated CKD-BMD markers in a diverse cohort of CKD patients, who were participants of The CANADIAN AIM to PREVENT (the CAN AIM to PREVENT) study. FGF-23, calcium, phosphate, 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25-OHD) and intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) in 1234 participants with pre-dialysis CKD (mean estimated glomerular filtration rate: 41.8 ± 14.3 mL/min) were analyzed. Mixed-effects general linear regression models adjusted for demographic and biological factors were used to compare repeated measurements across patient groups categorized by ethnicity (East Asian, White, South Asian, Black, Southeast Asian) and seasons.

Results
Compared with other groups, White participants exhibited 8.0%–18.5% higher FGF-23 levels, Black participants had 0.17–0.32 mg/dL higher calcium levels, White participants had 10.0%–20.1% higher 25-OHD levels, South Asian participants had 7.3%–20.1% lower 25-OHD levels and Black participants had 22.1–73.8% higher iPTH levels, while East Asian participants had 10.7%–73.8% lower iPTH levels. Seasonal variations were also observed. FGF-23 levels were 11.9%–15.5% higher in summer compared with other seasons, while calcium levels were 0.03–0.06 mg/dL lower in summer. 25-OHD levels were 5.6%–10.6% higher in summer and autumn compared with other seasons.

Conclusions
This study shows that FGF-23 and CKD-MBD markers in a Canadian pre-dialysis CKD cohort vary independently by ethnicity and season. Further research is needed to understand the reasons and clinical significance of these findings.
An improved DNN model for WLAN intrusion detection

Published: June 2024

Abstract
Intrusion detection represents an efficacious approach for addressing security concerns. However, given the substantial volume and high-dimensional nature of WLAN dataset features, existing methods exhibit limited effectiveness in feature extraction, thereby impacting classification performance. To address above problems, an improved deep neural network (DNN) model for WLAN intrusion detection was proposed. Firstly, the activation function and loss function of a single sparse autoencoders (SAE) were determined through experiments, followed by the addition of regularization terms to the autoencoder, to prevent the model from overfitting. Subsequently, multiple SAEs were employed for a stacked architecture. This configuration served the purpose of feature dimension reduction and facilitated the selection of suitable feature dimensions for training the dataset. The chosen features were then utilized as the input layer for a DNN, with a SoftMax classifier serving as the output layer. Secondly, to obtain better DNN model parameters, the grid search method was adopted to optimize the parameters of the DNN model, namely activation, epochs, batch_size, init_mode, and optimizer. The results were visualized for assessment and analysis. Finally, the receiver operating characteristic curves were generated to assess the performance of various models, the analysis results show that the model exhibited better classifier performance.

Published: June 2024

Abstract
Sentiment analysis is a dynamic field focused on understanding and predicting emotional sentiments in text or images. With the prevalence of smartphones, e-commerce and social networks, individuals readily express opinions, aiding businesses, political analysts and organizations in decision-making. Despite extensive research in sentiment analysis for various languages, challenges persist in low-resource languages like Roman Urdu. Roman Urdu, the use of Roman script to write Urdu, has gained popularity, yet limited linguistic resources hinder sentiment analysis research. This study addresses this gap by developing a bidirectional long short-term memory network with FastText embeddings and additional layers. A large Roman Urdu corpus for sentiment analysis, consisting of over 51 000 reviews, is crated and the proposed model is trained and compared with 14 other models, demonstrating an accuracy of 0.854 and an F1-score of 0.84.
Age-related physiological dysregulation progresses slowly in semi-free-ranging chimpanzees

Published: June 2024

Abstract

Background and objectives
Lifestyle has widespread effects on human health and aging. Prior results from chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes), one of humans’ closest evolutionary relatives, indicate that these lifestyle effects may also be shared with other species, as semi-free-ranging chimpanzees fed a naturalistic diet show healthier values in several specific health biomarkers, compared with their sedentary, captive counterparts. Here, we examined how lifestyle factors associated with different environments affect rates of physiological aging in closely related chimpanzees.

Methodology
We compared physiological dysregulation, an index of biological aging, in semi-free-ranging chimpanzees in an African sanctuary versus captive chimpanzees in US laboratories. If the rate of aging is accelerated by high-calorie diet and sedentism, we predicted greater age-related dysregulation in the laboratory populations. Conversely, if costs of a wild lifestyle accelerate aging, then semi-free-ranging chimpanzees at the sanctuary, whose environment better approximates the wild, should show greater age-related dysregulation. We further tested whether dysregulation differed based on sex or body system, as in humans.

Results
We found that semi-free-ranging chimpanzees showed lower overall dysregulation, as well as lower age-related change in dysregulation, than laboratory chimpanzees. Males experienced lower dysregulation than females in both contexts, and the two populations exhibited distinct aging patterns based on body system.

Conclusions and implications
Our results support the conclusion that naturalistic living conditions result in healthier aging in chimpanzees. These data provide support for the proposal that lifestyle effects on human health and aging are conserved from deeper into our evolutionary history.

Abstract
Little is known either about either physical activity patterns, or other lifestyle-related prevention measures in heart transplantation (HTx) recipients. The history of HTx started more than 50 years ago but there are still no guidelines or position papers highlighting the features of prevention and rehabilitation after HTx. The aims of this scientific statement are (i) to explain the importance of prevention and rehabilitation after HTx, and (ii) to promote the factors (modifiable/non-modifiable) that should be addressed after HTx to improve patients’ physical capacity, quality of life and survival. All HTx team members have their role to play in the care of these patients and multidisciplinary prevention and rehabilitation programmes designed for transplant recipients. HTx recipients are clearly not healthy disease-free subjects yet they also significantly differ from heart failure patients or those who are supported with mechanical circulatory support. Therefore, prevention and rehabilitation after HTx both need to be specifically tailored to this patient population and be multidisciplinary in nature. Prevention and rehabilitation programmes should be initiated early after HTx and continued during the entire post-transplant journey. This clinical consensus
A qualitative assessment of using ChatGPT as large language model for scientific workflow development
Authors: Sänger Mario , De Mecquenem Ninon , Lewińska Katarzyna Ewa , Bountris Vasilis , Lehmann Fabian , Leser Ulf , Kosch Thomas 
Published: June 2024

Abstract

Background
Scientific workflow systems are increasingly popular for expressing and executing complex data analysis pipelines over large datasets, as they offer reproducibility, dependability, and scalability of analyses by automatic parallelization on large compute clusters. However, implementing workflows is difficult due to the involvement of many black-box tools and the deep infrastructure stack necessary for their execution. Simultaneously, user-supporting tools are rare, and the number of available examples is much lower than in classical programming languages.

Results
To address these challenges, we investigate the efficiency of large language models (LLMs), specifically ChatGPT, to support users when dealing with scientific workflows. We performed 3 user studies in 2 scientific domains to evaluate ChatGPT for comprehending, adapting, and extending workflows. Our results indicate that LLMs efficiently interpret workflows but achieve lower performance for exchanging components or purposeful workflow extensions. We characterize their limitations in these challenging scenarios and suggest future research directions.

Conclusions
Our results show a high accuracy for comprehending and explaining scientific workflows while achieving a reduced performance for modifying and extending workflow descriptions. These findings clearly illustrate the need for further research in this area.
Acoustic observations of walleye pollock (Gadus chalcogrammus) migration across the US-Russia boundary in the northwest Bering Sea
Authors: Levine Robert M , De Robertis Alex , Bassett Christopher , Levine Mike , Ianelli James N 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
The degree to which walleye pollock (Gadus chalcogrammus, hereafter pollock) move between the US and Russian zones of the Bering Sea is a key source of uncertainty for fisheries management. To study transboundary migrations across the US–Russia maritime boundary and explore how climate variability might influence these migrations, four seafloor-mounted echosounder moorings were deployed from July 2019 to August 2020 in the northwestern Bering Sea. The observations indicated that a substantial amount of pollock moves between the US and Russia seasonally, with a period of southeast movement into the US as winter as sea ice forms and northwest movement into Russia in early summer as waters warm. Over the deployment period, 2.3-times more pollock backscatter moved into the US zone in fall and winter than exited the subsequent spring and summer. We hypothesize that the difference in the net movement between regions was driven by pollock moving farther into Russia during the historically warm conditions at the start of deployment period and reduced northwest return migration the following summer when temperatures were relatively cooler. This supports the hypothesis that temperature affects pollock distribution, and that continued warming will lead to a larger proportion of the stock in Russian waters.
To Live or Not to Live With It? Examining the Cultivation Effect of State Media on Support for the Zero-COVID Policy
Authors: Wang Zituo , Kim Donggyu , Zhu Jiayi 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
This study delved into the influential role of state media in shaping public opinion and cultivating policy support. Focusing on the Chinese government’s insistence on the zero-COVID policy, we conducted a nationwide survey (N = 665) to examine the cultivation effect of state media on Chinese people’s support for the zero-COVID policy. We found that the more state media people were exposed to on social media, the more they supported the zero-COVID policy. State media exposure on social media was positively associated with trust in the government and fear of the virus among the audience, both of which mediated the effect of state media exposure on zero-COVID policy support. By applying the cultivation theory, this study contributed to our understanding of public opinion and information manipulation under authoritarian contexts in the digital age.
Nuclear Dimension of Subhomogeneous Twisted Groupoid C*-algebras and Dynamic Asymptotic Dimension
Authors: Bönicke Christian , Li Kang 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
We characterize subhomogeneity for twisted étale groupoid $\text{C}^{*}$-algebras and obtain an upper bound on their nuclear dimension. As an application, we remove the principality assumption in recent results on upper bounds on the nuclear dimension of a twisted étale groupoid $\text{C}^{*}$-algebra in terms of the dynamic asymptotic dimension of the groupoid and the covering dimension of its unit space. As a non-principal example, we show that the dynamic asymptotic dimension of any minimal (not necessarily free) action of the infinite dihedral group $D_{\infty }$ on an infinite compact Hausdorff space $X$ is always one. So if we further assume that $X$ is second-countable and has finite covering dimension, then $C(X)\rtimes _{r} D_{\infty }$ has finite nuclear dimension and is classifiable by its Elliott invariant.
Translation-Invariant Equations With at Least Four Variables
Authors: Schoen Tomasz 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
We prove that every subset of $\{1,\dots , N\}$ that does not contain any solutions to a translation invariant equation $a_{1}x_{1}+\dots +a_{k}x_{k}=0$ with $k\ge 4$ has at most $$ \begin{align*} & \exp\big(-c(\log N)^{1/5+o(1)}\big)N\end{align*} $$ elements, for some $c&gt;0$. This theorem improves upon previous estimates. Additionally, our method has the potential to yield an optimal estimate for this problem that matches Behrend’s classical lower bound. Our approach relies on a new result on almost-periodicity of convolutions.
Dimension Growth for Affine Varieties
Authors: Vermeulen Floris 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
We prove uniform upper bounds on the number of integral points of bounded height on affine varieties. If $X$ is an irreducible affine variety of degree $d\geq 4$ in ${\mathbb{A}}^{n}$, which is not the preimage of a curve under a linear map ${\mathbb{A}}^{n}\to{\mathbb{A}}^{n-\dim X+1}$, then we prove that $X$ has at most $O_{d,n,\varepsilon }(B^{\dim X - 1 + \varepsilon })$ integral points up to height $B$. This is a strong analogue of dimension growth for projective varieties, and improves upon a theorem due to Pila, and a theorem due to Browning–Heath-Brown–Salberger. Our techniques follow the $p$-adic determinant method, in the spirit of Heath-Brown, but with improvements due to Salberger, Walsh, and Castryck–Cluckers–Dittmann–Nguyen. The main difficulty is to count integral points on lines on an affine surface in ${\mathbb{A}}^{3}$, for which we develop point-counting results for curves in ${\mathbb{P}}^{1}\times{\mathbb{P}}^{1}$. We also formulate and prove analogous results over global fields, following work by Paredes–Sasyk.
