Effect of an Isolated Bore on Birds in the Complex Arid Landscape of Faure Island, Shark Bay, Western Australia
Authors: FULTON GRAHAM R. 
Published: February 2025

Artificial water points in Australian rangelands have had various adverse effects on native biota. In this study, the terrestrial avifauna of an isolated bore on Faure Island, Shark Bay, Western Australia, was evaluated for drinking and geographical abundance patterns. The bore is in a unique environment close to three major biological boundaries: biogeographical, vegetational, and climatic. The island is also of interest because marsupial species extinct on the mainland (e.g. boodie Bettongia lesueur) have been re-introduced there. During a four-day survey, 1626 individuals from 20 bird species were observed. Of the species, 80% showed a gradient in relative concentration across the whole island, in the 100 ha around the bore and within the bore’s piosphere. Patterns of drinking and attendance at the bore are also reported. Some birds (e.g. Crested Pigeon Ocyphaps lophotes and Little Crow Corvus bennetti) increased their relative concentration near the watering point while others (e.g. Silvereye Zosterops lateralis and Australasian Pipit Anthus novaeseelandiae) decreased. The null hypothesis that the bore had no impact on the distribution of birds was rejected.
Analysis of some consequences of protecting the right to justice in disputes related to sanctioned transactions
Authors: Bezborodov Alexander Yur'evich 
Published: February 2025

Within the framework of the article, the author analyzes the conditions of application of the provision of Article 248.1 of the Arbitral Code of the Russian Federation regarding the justification of the exclusive jurisdiction of Russian courts in disputes involving persons affected by sanctions restrictions, as well as the conditions of application of Article 11 (a) of Regulation (EU) 833/2014, which grants citizens of the European Union and legal entities incorporated in the European Union the right to damages and court costs related to the consideration of a dispute related to a sanctioned transaction in a jurisdiction outside the European Union and, in particular, in Russian state courts in the case of a Russian court substantiating jurisdiction on the basis of Article 248.1 of the APC RF. The author examined the prerequisites for the application of relevant norms, taking into account current judicial practice, highlights differences and common approaches to the implementation of relevant powers.The author used a comparative legal method and compared legal approaches to the application of Article 248.1 of the Code of Arbitration Procedure of the Russian Federation with the prerequisites for the application of Article 11 (a) Regulation (EC) 833/2014. The research topic seems relevant to the author due to the need to analyze the judicial approaches being developed to the application of Article 248.1 of the Arbitration Procedural Code of the Russian Federation, the legal positions of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation aimed at protecting the constitutional right to judicial protection. Also of scientific interest are the approaches of foreign states aimed at protecting foreign persons and transferring legal disputes to a foreign jurisdiction in order to guarantee maximum protection for foreign citizens and legal entities, regardless of the possibility of providing equal jurisdictional and organizational guarantees to Russian participants in the dispute. A comparative analysis of the prerequisites for the application of relevant legal norms in the Russian Federation and the European Union makes it possible to identify both similar approaches to legal regulation and differences, as well as to assess the impact of the application of these norms on the legal and economic situation of the parties to the dispute.

Mesta or Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) is one of the most important commercial fibre crops after Cotton and Jute. Foot and stem rot is one of the major devastating diseases affecting mesta plants caused by the fungus Phytophthora parasitica var. sabdariffae. Field trials were conducted at the Agricultural Research Station, Amadalavalasa for two consecutive years during Kharif 2022-23 and 2023-24 to evaluate Advanced Varietal Trial (AVT) entries against foot and stem rot in roselle under sick plot conditions. Same Six set of entries were screened under Advanced Varietal Trial (AVT I) during 2022-23 and Advanced Varietal Trial (AVT II) during 2023-24 against foot and stem rot disease of mesta under field (sick plot) conditions. Each treatment replicated thrice in a randomized block design and Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was carried out on the data to test for differences using MS Excel. In AVT I entries, the disease incidence of foot and stem rot ranged from 23.0% (AHS-340) to 42.3% (AHS-342) and the susceptible checks HS 4288 and AMV 5 recorded disease incidence of 46.1% and 47.6% respectively. Among the six AVT II entries screened under sick plot conditions, foot and stem rot incidence ranged from 24.1% (AHS-340) to 50.6% (AHS-342). The susceptible checks HS 4288 and AMV 5 recorded disease incidence rates of 50.2% and 60.0% respectively.

Aims: To develop and evaluate biodegradable polylactic acid (PLA) packaging films incorporated with zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) and assess their effects on the physico-chemical characteristics as well as the shelf life of pork chops under frozen condition
Study design: It is a controlled experiment where different treatments (types of packaging) are applied to the pork chops, and their effects are measured at multiple time points.
Place and Duration of Study: Sample: Department of Livestock Products Technology, College of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, Pookode, Wayanad District, Kerala State, India between June 2024 and December 2024.
Methodology: Plain PLA pouches and PLA pouches incorporated with ZnO were prepared. Pork hind leg chops were used as samples and were procured from a local butcher, cut into 200-250g and then packaged into Low Density Poly Ethylene (LDPE), plain PLA and PLA pouches incorporated with 2.5 per cent and 5 per cent concentrations of ZnO nanoparticles. Samples packed in LDPE were labelled as control while samples packed in PLA, 2.5 per cent PLA/ZnO pouches and 5 per cent PLA/ZnO pouches were labelled as treatment 1 (T1), treatment 2 (T2) and treatment 3 (T3) respectively. All samples were kept under frozen storage (-18 ± 2 oC) and analysis was done on the 0th, 30th, 60th, 90th and 120th day of storage. The samples were analysed for their physico-chemical properties such as pH, cooking loss, water holding capacity, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) number and tyrosine value. Four trials of the experiment were conducted.
Results: A significant decrease in pH was observed in all the samples across the storage period except in T2 and the water holding capacity of all samples significantly (P ≤0.01) reduced with time. Corresponding to the trend in pH values over storage, was a significant decrease (P<0.01) could be observed in the cooking loss as well as water holding capacity. The TBARS (P<0.01) and tyrosine values P<0.05) increased significantly with time. However, there was no significant difference observed between the samples in any day of analysis indicating that PLA is equally effective as LDPE for the frozen storage of pork. The incorporation of nanoparticles, however did not exert a significant change in the quality of frozen pork.
Conclusion: PLA is equally effective as LDPE as a packaging material for the frozen storage of pork and can offer a sustainable solution to the packaging of muscle foods. The incorporation of nanoparticles, however did not exert a significant change in the quality of frozen pork.

ImportanceIndividuals with congenital heart disease (CHD) are increasingly reaching childbearing age, are more prone to adverse pregnancy events, and uncommonly undergo recommended cardiac evaluations. Data to better understand resource allocation and financial planning are lacking.ObjectiveTo examine health care use and costs for patients with CHD during pregnancy.Design, Setting, and ParticipantsThis retrospective cohort study was performed from January 1, 2010, to December 31, 2016, using Merative MarketScan commercial insurance data. Participants included patients with CHD and those without CHD matched 1:1 by age, sex, and insurance enrollment year. Pregnancy claims were identified for all participants. Data were analyzed from September 2022 to March 2024.ExposuresBaseline characteristics (age, US region, delivery year, insurance type) and pregnancy-related events (obstetric, cardiac, and noncardiac conditions; birth outcomes; and cesarean delivery).Main Outcomes and MeasuresHealth service use (outpatient physician, nonphysician, emergency department, prescription drugs, and admissions) and costs (total and out-of-pocket costs adjusted for inflation to represent 2024 US dollars).ResultsA total of 11 703 pregnancies (mean [SD] maternal age, 31.5 [5.4] years) were studied, with 2267 pregnancies in 1785 patients with CHD (492 pregnancies in patients with severe CHD and 1775 in patients with nonsevere CHD) and 9436 pregnancies in 7720 patients without CHD. Compared with patients without CHD, pregnancies in patients with CHD were associated with significantly higher health care use (standardized mean difference [SMD] range, 0.16-1.46) and cost (SMD range, 0.14-0.55) except for out-of-pocket inpatient and ED costs. After adjustment for covariates, having CHD was independently associated with higher total (adjusted cost ratio, 1.70; 95% CI, 1.57-1.84) and out-of-pocket (adjusted cost ratio, 1.40; 95% CI, 1.22-1.58) costs. The adjusted mean total costs per pregnancy were $15 971 (95% CI, $15 480-$16 461) for patients without CHD, $24 290 (95% CI, $22 773-$25 806) for patients with any CHD, $26 308 (95% CI, $22 788-$29 828) for patients with severe CHD, and $23 750 (95% CI, $22 110-$25 390) for patients with nonsevere CHD. Patients with vs without CHD incurred $8319 and $700 higher total and out-of-pocket costs per pregnancy, respectively.Conclusions and RelevanceThis study provides novel, clinically relevant estimates for the cardio-obstetric team, patients with CHD, payers, and policymakers regarding health care and financial planning. These estimates can be used to carefully plan for and advocate for the comprehensive resources needed to care for patients with CHD.

ImportanceThe youth mental health crisis is exacerbated for Latinx adolescents, a group whose families are targets of anti-immigrant rhetoric and policy.ObjectiveTo investigate how immigration-related stressors are associated with disruptions in parent-child relationships and, in turn, the mental health symptoms of Latinx adolescents.Design, Setting, and ParticipantsData for this prospective cohort study of adolescent-mother dyads were derived from surveys completed at 3 time points spanning 4 years (time 1 [T1] in 2018, time 2 [T2] in 2020, and time 3 [T3] in 2022). Mediation analyses estimated paths from immigration-related stressors to parent-child relationship qualities to mental health symptoms from early to late adolescence. Multivariable and multivariate linear models within a structural equation modeling framework regressed mediators and outcome variables on their own T1 values, offering a scientifically rigorous test of mediation. The setting was a school district in suburban Atlanta, Georgia, and included Latinx adolescents (ages 11-16 years) randomly selected from grade and gender strata. Data were analyzed from June 2023 to March 2024.ExposuresThe primary independent variables were T1 mother reports of anti-immigrant worry and behavioral modification and adolescent reports of family member detention or deportation. Mediating variables were the reports of parental support and parent-child conflict of T2 adolescents.Main Outcomes and MeasuresT3 adolescent reports of past 6-month internalizing and externalizing symptoms.ResultsA total of 547 Latinx adolescents (mean [SD] age, 13.3 [1.0] years; 303 female [55.4%]; 244 male [44.6%]) were included in this study. Response rates were 65.2% (547 of 839) among contacted parents and 95.3% (547 of 574) among contacted adolescents with parental permission. Four-year retention rates were 67% (366 of 547 adolescents) and 65% (177 of 271 mothers). Structural model results showed that T1 anti-immigrant worry and behavioral modification was associated with T3 increases in externalizing symptoms indirectly through T1 to T2 increases in parent-child conflict (β = 0.03; SE = 0.02; 95% CI, 0-0.08). For girls, T1 family member deportation or detention was associated with T1 to T3 increases in internalizing and externalizing symptoms indirectly through T1 to T2 declines in parental support (internalizing: β = 0.04; SE = 0.02; 95% CI, 0-0.08; externalizing: β = 0.03; SE = 0.02; 95% CI, 0-0.07). Sensitivity analyses supported structural model findings.Conclusion and RelevanceResults of this cohort study suggest that legislative bodies, the health care system, and educational institutions should implement safeguards to mitigate potential harm conferred by anti-immigrant environments for parent-child relationships and, in turn, Latinx adolescents’ mental health.

AbstractThe identification of gene fusions has become an integral part of soft tissue and bone tumour diagnosis. We investigated the added value of targeted RNA‐based sequencing (targeted RNA‐seq, Archer FusionPlex) to our current molecular diagnostic workflow of these tumours, which is based on fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH) for the detection of gene fusions using 25 probes. In a series of 131 diagnostic samples targeted RNA‐seq identified a gene fusion, BCOR internal tandem duplication or ALK deletion in 47 cases (35.9%). For 74 cases, encompassing 137 FISH analyses, concordance between FISH and targeted RNA‐seq was evaluated. A positive or negative FISH result was confirmed by targeted RNA‐seq in 27 out of 49 (55.1%) and 81 out of 88 (92.0%) analyses, respectively. While negative concordance was high, targeted RNA‐seq identified a canonical gene fusion in seven cases despite a negative FISH result. The 22 discordant FISH‐positive analyses showed a lower percentage of rearrangement‐positive nuclei (range 15–41%) compared to the concordant FISH‐positive analyses (>41% of nuclei in 88.9% of cases). Six FISH analyses (in four cases) were finally considered false positive based on histological and targeted RNA‐seq findings. For the EWSR1 FISH probe, we observed a gene‐dependent disparity (p = 0.0020), with 8 out of 35 cases showing a discordance between FISH and targeted RNA‐seq (22.9%). This study demonstrates an added value of targeted RNA‐seq to our current diagnostic workflow of soft tissue and bone tumours in 19 out of 131 cases (14.5%), which we categorised as altered diagnosis (3 cases), added precision (6 cases), or augmented spectrum (10 cases). In the latter subgroup, four novel fusion transcripts were found for which the clinical relevance remains unclear: NAB2::NCOA2, YAP1::NUTM2B, HSPA8::BRAF, and PDE2A::PLAG1. Overall, targeted RNA‐seq has proven extremely valuable in the diagnostic workflow of soft tissue and bone tumours.

Published: May 2024

AbstractStructured light refers to the light field tailored by various degrees of freedom including intensity, phase, and polarization states in both spatial and temporal domains, which may greatly vitalize the technologies in both optics, such as the next‐generation optical communication as well as subwavelength imaging and the materials science in both fabrication and characterization. The structured characteristics of the structure light need materials also with structured optical properties that can generate or manipulate structured light in a straightforward way, which can be well satisfied by liquid crystals, a soft mater that can self‐assemble into tunable ordered structures through external stimuli. This review summarizes the research progress of the liquid crystal‐based devices used in structured light generations and modulations, including the well‐established techniques in the market, like the spatial light modulator, q‐plate and the liquid crystal integrated optical metasurfaces. Especially, light‐matter interactions are discussed from the topological view of both the structured light and the liquid crystal structures. Such a perfect matching in topology makes the liquid crystal a promising star together with structured light in future optic and photonic technologies.

AbstractIonic gating of oxide thin films has emerged as a novel way of manipulating the properties of thin films. Most studies are carried out on single devices with a three‐terminal configuration, but, by exploring the electrokinetics during the ionic gating, such a configuration with initially insulating films leads to a highly non‐uniform gating response of individual devices within large arrays of the devices. It is shown that such an issue can be circumvented by the formation of a uniform charge potential by the use of a thin conducting underlayer. This synchronized local ionic gating allows for the simultaneous manipulation of the electrical, magnetic, and/or optical properties of large arrays of devices. Designer metasurfaces formed in this way from SrCoO2.5 thin films display an anomalous optical reflection of light that relies on the uniform and coherent response of all the devices. Beyond oxides, almost any material whose properties can be controlled by the addition or removal of ions via gating can form novel metasurfaces using this technique. These findings provide insights into the electrokinetics of ionic gating and a wide range of applications using synchronized local ionic gating.

AbstractA miniature laser with linear polarization is a long sought‐after component of photonic integrated circuits. In particular, for multiwavelength polarization lasers, it supports simultaneous access to multiple, widely varying laser wavelengths in a small spatial region, which is of great significance for advancing applications such as optical computing, optical storage, and optical sensing. However, there is a trade‐off between the size of small‐scale lasers and laser performance, and multiwavelength co‐gain of laser media and multicavity micromachining in the process of laser miniaturization remain as significant challenges. Herein, room‐temperature linearly polarized multiwavelength lasers in the visible and near‐infrared wavelength ranges are demonstrated, by fabricating random cavities scattered with silica in an Er‐doped Cs2Ag0.4Na0.6In0.98Bi0.02Cl6 double‐perovskite quantum dots gain membrane. By regulating the local symmetry and enabling effective energy transfer in nanocrystals, multiwavelength lasers with ultralow thresholds are achieved at room temperature. The maximum degree of polarization reaches 0.89. With their advantages in terms of miniaturization, ultralow power consumption, and adaptability for integration, these lasers offer a prospective light source for future photonic integrated circuits aimed at high‐capacity optical applications.
