AbstractDespite centuries of investigation, certain aspects of left ventricular anatomy remain either controversial or uncertain. We make no claims to have resolved these issues, but our review, based on our current knowledge of development, hopefully identifies the issues requiring further investigation. When first formed, the left ventricle had only inlet and apical components. With the expansion of the atrioventricular canal, the developing ventricle cedes part of its inlet to the right ventricle whilst retaining the larger parts of the cushions dividing the atrioventricular canal. Further remodelling of the interventricular communication provides the ventricle with its outlet, with the aortic root being transferred to the left ventricle along with the newly formed myocardium supporting its leaflets. The definitive ventricle possesses inlet, apical and outlet parts. The inlet component is guarded by the mitral valve, with its leaflets, in the normal heart, supported by papillary muscles located infero‐septally and supero‐laterally. There is but a solitary zone of apposition between the leaflets, which we suggest are best described as being aortic and mural. The trabeculated component extends beyond the inlet to the apex and is confluent with the outlet part, which supports the aortic root. The leaflets of the aortic valve are supported in semilunar fashion within the root, with the ventricular cavity extending to the sinutubular junction. The myocardial‐arterial junction, however, stops well short of the sinutubular junction, with myocardium found only at the bases of the sinuses, giving rise to the coronary arteries. We argue that the relationships between the various components should now be described using attitudinally appropriate terms rather than describing them as if the heart is removed from the body and positioned on its apex.
Responsibility in the Anthropocene: Paul Ricoeur and the Summons to Responsibility amid Global Environmental Degradation
Authors: Le Chevallier Michael 
Published: April 2024

ABSTRACTThe nomenclature of the Anthropocene for this geological epoch marks in a novel way the global impact of human activity on the world. Consequently, it creatively raises the alarm bell of global environmental devastation. However, the narrative implicit in the Anthropocene presents challenges to use it as a departure point for developing an ethics of responsibility, as it contains morally relevant but ambiguous etiologies, phenomenological challenges to discrete human agency, and the potential erasure of both causes and victims of global environmental degradation. This challenge compounds the challenges to traditional models of responsibility‐as‐imputation by global forms of environmental degradation signaled in the Anthropocene. Our new epoch demands new models of responsibility. This article draws upon neglected work by Paul Ricoeur to reconstruct a twofold model of responsibility: (1) responsibility‐as‐imputation and (2) responsibility for the fragile other and the domains that amplify fragility. It shows that a twofold model can more completely respond to harms elicited by anthropogenic environmental degradation by maintaining the benefits of traditional models of responsibility‐as‐accountability while dramatically expanding the subject and objects of responsibility through attention to the fragile and thus better serving us as we navigate responsibility in the Anthropocene.

AbstractCotton (Gossypium spp.) is a vital global source of renewable fiber and ranks among the world's most important cash crops. While extensive nuclear genomic data of Gossypium has been explored, the organellar genomic resources of allotetraploid cotton, remain largely untapped at the population level. The plastid genome (plastome) is well suited for studying plant species relationships and diversity due to its nonrecombinant uniparental inheritance. Here, we conducted de novo assembly of 336 Gossypium plastomes, mainly from domesticated cultivars, and generated a pan‐plastome level resource for population structure and genetic diversity analyses. The assembled plastomes exhibited a typical quadripartite structure and varied in length from 160 103 to 160 597 bp. At the species level, seven allotetraploid species were resolved into three clades, where Gossypium tomentosum and Gossypium mustelinum formed an early diverging clade rooted by diploids, followed by splitting two sister clades of Gossypium darwinii–Gossypium barbadense and Gossypium hirsutum–Gossypium ekmanianum–Gossypium stephensii. Within the G. hirsutum clade the resolution of cultivated accessions was less polyphyletic with landrace and wild accessions than in G. barbadense suggesting some selection on plastome in the domestication of this adaptable species of cotton. The nucleotide diversity of G. hirsutum was higher than that of G. barbadense. We specifically compared the plastomes of G. hirsutum and G. barbadense to find mutational hotspots within each species as potential molecular markers. These findings contribute a valuable resource for exploring cotton evolution as well as in the breeding of new cotton cultivars and the preservation of wild and cultivated germplasm.
How do sleepwear and bedding fibre types affect sleep quality: A systematic review
Authors: Li Xinzhu , Halaki Mark , Chow Chin Moi 
Published: April 2024

SummarySleepwear and bedding materials can affect sleep quality by influencing the skin and body temperature and thermal comfort. This review systematically evaluates the impact of sleepwear or bedding of different fibre types on sleep quality. A systematic search was conducted in six data bases plus Google Scholar and manual searches. Original articles that compared human sleep quality between at least two fibre types of bedding or sleepwear were included, resulting in nine eligible articles included in the review. The fibre types included cotton, polyester, wool, and blended materials for sleepwear; cotton, duck down, goose down, polyester and wool for duvet; and linen and a combination of cotton and polyester for bedding. The interplay between fibre materials and sleep quality is complex. Blended sleepwear demonstrated potential benefits for specific populations. Wool sleepwear showed benefits for sleep onset in adults (cool conditions) and in older adults (warm conditions). Linen bedsheets improved sleep quality under warm conditions in young adults. Goose down‐filled duvets increased slow‐wave sleep under cool conditions in young adults. However, a systematic comparison of fibre types is challenging due to the diverse nature of the studies evaluating sleep quality. Further research employing standardised methodologies with standard fibre samples in different populations and in different temperature conditions is imperative to elucidate comprehensively the effects of fibre choices on sleep quality. Despite the limitations and heterogeneity of the included studies, this analysis offers valuable insights for individuals seeking to optimise their sleep experiences and for manufacturers developing sleep‐related products.
The Influence of Religious Affiliation on the Political Views of LGBT Americans

Published: April 2024

AbstractWith a nationally representative, repeated cross‐sectional sample of over 250,000 Americans from 2016 to 2019, we investigate the role that religious and LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender) identities play in influencing Americans’ political attitudes, centering the narratives of religious LGBT Americans. We find that nearly half of LGBT Americans affiliate religiously. Logistic regressions show that identifying as religious is related to more conservative views on LGBT rights and abortion while identifying as LGBT is related to more liberal views on both of these issues. We failed to observe interaction effects, suggesting that religious affiliation influences LGBT individuals’ political views in a manner similar to the way it influences cisgender, heterosexual individuals’ views. Comparisons of the variation accounted for by religious or LGBT identities show that religious affiliation more frequently accounted for more variation in political views.
How does rapid burial work? New insights from experiments with echinoderms
Authors: Fraga Malton Carvalho , Vega Cristina Silveira 
Published: April 2024

AbstractThis research explores the significance of rapid burial in preserving fossils, with a particular focus on free‐living echinoderms. Experiments were based on ophiuroids to simulate burial under different turbiditic flows. The results showed that a bed thickness of around 10 cm is a limit for the preservation of whole skeletons in most cases. The type of sediment can affect the integrity of the buried skeletons, with sand deposition resulting in higher rates of autotomy. However, mud deposition did not show any numbing effect, as previously believed for echinoderms. In contrast, freshwater‐rich sediments can play a critical role, paralysing specimens and preventing escape postures through rapid changes in salinity. From this, the study highlights the importance of extrabasinal turbidites, generated outside the marine basin, in the fossilization of marine invertebrates. Such sediments are rich in fresh water and can be more efficient burial traps compared to other intrabasinal deposits generated by storm waves or submarine landslides.

AbstractIntroduction and historyIn Mongolia, pediatric anesthesia has advanced during the past 25 years through expanded, standardized education programs and international collaboration. Pediatric anesthesia is a recognized specialty, covering all surgical services, including cardiac and transplant, using physicians and nurses.TrainingThe pediatric anesthesia fellowship is 6 months after 2 years of residency; pediatric nurse anesthesia training is 6 months.ConclusionAs a Low‐ and Middle‐Income Country (LMIC) with low population density and extreme weather, the challenges include insufficient equipment, supplies, and clinician numbers, matching few clinicians to many varied patient locations, and covering surgical emergencies over distance and weather.In Thailand, education and training in pediatric anesthesia remain a focus: Pediatric anesthesia is an official subspecialty, the fellowship is accredited, using a competency‐based curriculum with milestones of Direct Observation of Procedural Skills and Entrusted Professional Activities. The Bangkok Anesthesia Regional Training Center (BARTC)‐Pediatrics, jointly sponsored by the World Federation of Societies of Anesthesiologists (WFSA) and the Society for Pediatric Anesthesia (SPA), have expanded training to anesthesiologists worldwide. Challenges include difficulty balancing service workload and education, as well as attracting pediatric anesthesia fellows due to the strong private sector job market.
Post‐streptococcal small‐vessel vasculitis in a 16‐month‐old with associated intussusception and hypertension: Henoch Schönlein purpura?

Published: April 2024

AbstractHenoch Schönlein purpura (HSP), also known as IgA vasculitis, is a systemic small‐vessel vasculitis typically occurring in children 3–15 years of age, with peak incidence at 4–6 years. It is characterized by a constellation of symptoms including palpable purpura, arthralgias or arthritis, abdominal pain including intussusception, and renal involvement. We report a patient with these clinical findings whose IgA immunofluorescence was negative but with a presumptive diagnosis of HSP at 16 months of age, significantly younger than the classic population. This condition rarely affects this age group, and we highlight the importance of considering vasculitis in children of all ages, as a failure to diagnose could lead to insufficient long‐term monitoring, particularly regarding renal function.

AbstractMussaenda pubescens (Mp) is a valuable medicinal plant that has traditionally been used for medicinal purposes or as a tea substitute. However, there are few studies on the comprehensive and dynamic evaluation of Mp metabolites. This study used an ultra‐performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC‐MS/MS) approach and biochemical analysis to investigate substance changes in leaves at three different stages and elucidate the relationship between metabolites and antioxidant capacity. The findings showed that Mp leaves contained 957 metabolites, the majority of which were phenolic acids, lipids, and terpenoids. The metabolite profiling of Mp leaves was significantly influenced by their growth and development at different stages. A total of 317 differentially accumulated metabolites (DAMs) were screened, including 150 primary metabolites and 167 secondary metabolites, with 202 DAMs found in bud leaf vs. tender leaf, 54 DAMs in tender leaf vs. mature leaf, and 254 DAMs in bud leaf vs. mature leaf. Total phenolics, flavonoids, and anthocyanin concentrations decreased as Mp leaves grew and developed, whereas terpenoids increased significantly. The secondary metabolites also demonstrated a positive correlation with antioxidant activity. Phenolics, flavonoids, terpenoids, and anthocyanins were the primary factors influencing the antioxidant activity of leaves. These findings provide new insights into the metabolite formation mechanism, as well as the development and utilization of Mp tea.

Published: April 2024

AbstractThe flower bud differentiation plays a crucial role in cherry yield and quality. In a preliminary study, we revealed the promotion of spermidine (Spd) in bud differentiation and quality. However, the molecular mechanism underlying Spd regulating cherry bud differentiation remains unclear. To address this research gap, we cloned CpSPDS2, a gene that encodes Spd synthase and is highly expressed in whole flowers and pistils of the Chinese cherry (cv. ‘Manaohong’). Furthermore, an overexpression vector with this gene was constructed to transform tobacco plants. The findings demonstrated that transgenic lines exhibited higher Spd content, an earlier flowering time by 6 d, and more lateral buds and flowers than wild‐type lines. Additionally, yeast one‐hybrid assays and two‐luciferase experiments confirmed that the R2R3‐MYB transcription factor (CpMYB44) directly binds to and activates the CpSPDS2 promoter transcription. It is indicated that CpMYB44 promotes Spd accumulation via regulating CpSPDS2 expression, thus accelerating the flower growth. This research provides a basis for resolving the molecular mechanism of CpSPDS2 involved in cherry bud differentiation.
Adaptive organizational network response in a crisis: The case of five European airports during theCOVID‐19 pandemic
Authors: de Rooij Doret , Timen Aura , Raab Jörg 
Published: April 2024

AbstractThe COVID‐19 pandemic posed unprecedented challenges to the joint organizational response of private and public and here especially public health organizations. This is particularly true for airports as central connectors of global travel and trade. For five European airports, we analyzed the interorganizational response based on input from 66 of the 87 different airport partners, using two fictitious scenarios derived from public health practice. We applied organizational design theory and quantitative (network) analysis to show how the four fundamental problems of organizing have been tackled at airports, i.e., task distribution, task allocation, rewards, and information provision. This article shows how the response to COVID‐19 in the airport setting needs to be solved within broad and flexible public administrative networks. The thorough understanding of organizational network responses in emergency management following from this article supports future preparedness efforts to deal with complex known and unknown public health threats.
A comparative analysis of literary testimony: Teaching with Holocaust diaries and memoirs
Authors: Painitz Sarah 
Published: April 2024

AbstractThis paper provides concrete suggestions for teaching two Holocaust testimonies, Irene Hauser's diary and Ruth Klüger's memoir Still Alive. Hauser's and Klüger's texts effectively illustrate the differences between diaries and memoirs while recounting similar experiences. Such a comparative analysis, I argue, achieves two goals: First, by comparing two different types of autobiographical texts, students gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of the complexities, contradictions, and tensions inherent in autobiographical writing, ultimately encouraging students to become more accepting of ambiguity in their learning. Second, by focusing on Holocaust testimonies, students learn about persecution, injustice, and oppression, increasing their awareness of global issues, interculturalism, and social justice. The pedagogical approach and teaching suggestions outlined here are easily adaptable and can be applied to the teaching of autobiographical writing in other thematic contexts.
Effect of CoCrMo Die and Tool Surface Nano-Texture on Micro Backward Extrusion Formability of AA6063-T6

Abstract
To manufacture microparts used in medical and electronic devices, the machining scale must be reduced to the microscale. However, when applying existing plastic forming processes to the machining of microscale parts, the size effect caused by material properties and friction results in variations in product accuracy. To suppress the size effect, tool materials and tool surface treatments suitable for microscale machining must be considered. Using AA6063-T6 billets as test specimens, this study investigated the effects of tool surface properties, such as die surface nanotexture, on micro-extrudability such as extrusion force, product shape, and crystal structure of the product. A cobalt-chromium-molybdenum (CoCrMo) die was used as a new die material suitable for micro-extrusion. To investigate the effects of the die material and die surface nanotexture, AISI H13, CoCrMo, and nanotextured CoCrMo dies were used. The extrusion force increased rapidly with the progression of the stroke for both dies. Compared with the AISI H13 die, the CoCrMo die with nanotexture exhibited considerably lower extrusion force, longer extrusion length, and less adhesion on the die surface. The results of material analysis using electron backscatter diffraction indicated that the nanotextured CoCrMo die improved material flowability and facilitated the application of greater strain. In contrast, the AISI H13 die exhibited lower material flowability and nonuniform strain. Therefore, the tribology between the tool and material was controlled by changing the surface properties of the die to improve the formability.
Examining Ableism Through the Physical Activity Experiences of Blind and Visually Impaired Women
Authors: Ball Lindsey E. , Haegele Justin A. 
Published: April 2024

Purpose: This study examined how ableism influences blind and visually impaired women’s experiences accessing and engaging in exercise, physical activity, and sport. Methods: Ten women between the ages of 27 and 45 years completed a one-on-one audio-recorded virtual interview where they reflected on the meaningfulness of their exercise, physical activity, and/or sport experiences, as well as described any experiences related to direct, indirect, systemic, or internalized ableism within or when attempting to access those physical activity experiences. The interview transcripts were analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis. Findings: The analysis resulted in the construction of 2 themes that depicted the participants’ experiences: (1) “It’s exhausting”: navigating inaccessibility and (2) “You feel like a fish out of water”: internalized ableism. Discussion: The themes highlight the participants’ experiences which were largely focused on being forced to navigate inaccessible environments which resulted in exhaustion and expressions of internalized ableism. These findings provide insight into what makes and does not make a physical activity space accessible and welcoming for blind and visually impaired adults.
