Biopolitics at the Nexus of Chronic and Infectious Diseases
Authors: Brantly N. D. 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Non-communicable (chronic) and communicable (infectious) diseases constitute the leading causes of death worldwide. They appear to impact populations in developed and developing nations differently with changing trends in the landscape of human conditions. Greater understanding of changing disease burdens should influence the planning of health programmes, the implementation of related interventions, and policymaking efforts on a national and global scale. However, the knowledge of disease burdens does not reflect how states and global health organizations prioritize their efforts in addressing them. This work aims to address the discrepancy in public health priority setting by improving our understanding of how the two disease categories impact the human condition. It reviews two case studies, COVID-19 and type 2 diabetes, as representative cases of an infectious and a chronic disease, respectively, to answer the following question. How does biopolitics, as the governance of human bodies, at the nexus of infectious and chronic disease, impact national and global public health priorities? This work contextualizes and reframes the relationship towards disease categories by focusing on three primary themes: risk, current public health interventions, and funding priorities for each case study analysed. It argues that the politics over life at the nexus of chronic and infectious diseases, best conceived as future-oriented economic optimization, directs the efforts of prioritization in healthcare based on risk and responsibility-based relationship between multiple stakeholders.

Published: February 2025

Abstract
The university stage represents an important change in life that is usually associated with various mental health problems which may have potentially been aggravated by the consequences of COVID-19. The objective of this study is to draw a clearer picture of the mental health of university students which may help to develop and implement interventions best suited to their needs. The sample of this study was composed of 433 university students, recruited through the snowball sampling method, who provided data about their depression, anxiety, social anxiety, obsessive-compulsive, trauma, and avoidance symptomatology and personality traits scores. The sample was divided according to the severity of the depressive and anxious symptoms into non-clinical (47.34%), subclinical (34.64%) and clinical groups (18.01%). From subclinical and clinical samples, less than 20% were receiving psychological help. Regarding the comparison with prevalence data prior to COVID-19, social anxiety and obsessive-compulsive symptoms may have increased seriously, while trauma symptoms showed similar prevalence. The strongest associations of the variables among the three groups were the relationship between neuroticism with social anxiety and obsessive-compulsive symptoms, and between depression and avoidance. This study provides an overview of the mental health of university students in Spain, who seem to have a clear need for psychological support. We hope this data contributes to the debate about the role universities should play in ensuring services that address the mental health needs of students.
Unbounded Hölder Domains
Authors: Karafyllia Christina 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Motivated by the classical bounded Hölder domains, we introduce the notion of an unbounded simply connected Hölder domain. We prove analytic and geometric characterizations of these domains with the aid of the spherical metric and the hyperbolic metric. We also study the relation of our definition to the definition of classical bounded Hölder domains. It turns out that unbounded Hölder domains form a natural class of domains for the study of the Hardy number (which determines the Hardy spaces to which the corresponding Riemann mapping belongs to). As an application of our characterizations, we prove a sharp bound for the Hardy number of an unbounded Hölder domain.
On the prospects of basal cognition research becoming fully evolutionary: promising avenues and cautionary notes
Authors: Fábregas-Tejeda Alejandro , Sims Matthew 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
The research programme ‘basal cognition’ adopts an evolutionary perspective for studying biological cognition. This entails investigating possible cognitive processes in ‘simple’–often non-neuronal–organisms as a means to discover conserved mechanisms and adaptive capacities underwriting cognition in more complex (neuronal) organisms. However, by pulling in the opposite direction of a tradition that views cognition as something that is unique to neuronal organisms, basal cognition has been met with a fair amount of scepticism by philosophers and scientists. The very idea of approaching cognition by way of investigating the behaviour and underlying mechanisms in, say, bacteria, has been seen as preposterous and harmful to both cognitive science and biology. This paper aims to temper such scepticism to a certain degree by drawing parallels with how the evolution of ‘development,’ another loaded concept that refers to a not-so-easily definable, contested bundle of phenomena, has been fruitfully approached in Evolutionary Developmental Biology (Evo-Devo). Through this comparison, we identify four promising features of the basal cognition approach. These features suggest that sweeping scepticism may be unwarranted. However, each of them comes with important epistemic cautionary notes that should not be disregarded. By presenting these twofold considerations as potential ways to integrate a fully evolutionary perspective into basal cognition, this paper seeks to provide clarity and direction for the advancement of this research programme.
Effect mechanism of H3PO4 on the formation and transformation of persistent free radicals in biochar
Authors: Gao Yajie , Gao Yuan , Li Aimin 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Persistent free radicals (PFRs) in biochar have attracted wide attention due to their multifaceted roles in the environment. The regulation of PFRs in biochar is not only beneficial to broaden its application potential, but also eliminates its environmental risks. However, as a common biochar modification reagent, phosphoric acid (H3PO4) has not been studied in the field of PFRs regulation. Herein, this study systematically investigated the effect of H3PO4 on PFRs in biochar under various conditions. The results indicated that H3PO4 promoted the formation of PFRs in biochar at low pyrolysis temperature (< 500 °C), owing to the positive effect of catalytic cross-linking on the degradation of biomass precursor. Yet, H3PO4 reduced PFRs in biochar at high pyrolysis temperature (≥ 500 °C), since the capture of H∙ or HO∙ by PO∙ and the steric hindrance changed by H3PO4, which caused the rearrangement and polycondensation of carbon structure. H3PO4 also favored carbon-centered PFRs as the dominant type. The ingredients of biomass precursor, including cellulose, Fe, Ti, protein, etc., contributed to different effects on PFRs under H3PO4 modification. This study provided new insights into the roles of H3PO4 on the formation and transformation of PFRs in biochar, coupled with regulation strategies in the practical application.

Resilience to Workplace Incivility: How Different Recovery Experiences Influence Resilience Dimensions
Authors: Notebaert Lies , Crane Monique , Carpini Joseph A. , Timming Andrew R. , Eastham Judy 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Workplace incivility is a common experience with detrimental individual and organizational outcomes. Personal resources such as recovery experiences can help individuals demonstrate resilience to such adversity. Yet, it remains unknown whether different approaches to daily work recovery contribute to different resilience outcome dimensions. The current study investigated whether psychological detachment, relaxation, mastery, and control recovery experiences were differentially associated with resilience. We assessed resilience across the burnout dimensions of emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and personal accomplishment using a residual approach. Participants were 289 local government professionals who completed self-report measures of recovery experiences, workplace incivility, and burnout. Hierarchical regression analyses revealed distinct patterns of associations. For emotional exhaustion resilience, psychological detachment and relaxation recovery opportunities were significant predictors. In contrast, none of the recovery experiences were associated with depersonalization resilience. For personal accomplishment resilience, only the mastery recovery opportunities emerged as a significant predictor. For comparison, psychological detachment and mastery experiences predicted higher scores on a conventional unidimensional trait resilience measure. These findings underscore the value of conceptualizing resilience as a multidimensional construct, as different recovery experiences appear to contribute to resilience in specific outcome domains. The results suggest that tailoring resilience-building strategies to target the unique needs and challenges faced by employees exposed to workplace incivility may be more effective than a one-size-fits-all approach. Continued research is needed to further elucidate the complex interplay between personal resources, workplace demands, and multifaceted resilient functioning.
The Effects of the Pegword Method on the Multiplication Skills of Students with Math Difficulties
Authors: Grünke Matthias , Braunwarth Isa , Connelly Vincent , Barwasser Anne 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
This single-case study assessed the effectiveness of a mnemonic pegword strategy designed to enhance the multiplication fact fluency of three 6th-grade students who demonstrated persistent learning difficulties in mathematics. A nonconcurrent multiple baseline across subjects design was utilized, incorporating 3–5 baseline sessions followed by 10–12 intervention sessions. The results indicated a noticeable, gradual improvement in the learners' ability to recall multiplication facts involving two-digit numbers quickly and accurately. Interviews conducted with the participants to assess the social validity of this approach revealed agreement and enthusiasm for the continued use of the strategy. Although acknowledging certain limitations inherent in this research, these results support the continued use of this intervention to aid students who struggle with basic multiplication. Further investigations are warranted to determine the generalizability of these findings and to address the study’s inherent limitations.
The coordinated development and evolutionary characteristics of “Port-Industry-City” System in Fangchenggang City of Western China
Authors: Ma Chunxiao , Mo Liulin , Wang Shifu 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
This study develops an integrated research framework that combines a Comprehensive Evaluation Indicator System, Coupling Coordination Degree Model, Composite System Evolution Model, and Obstacle Degree Model to analyze the dynamics of the 'Port-Industry-City' system. Using Fangchenggang, a keyt port in western China, as a case study, the paper contributes to the understanding of how port, industry, and city systems interact and evolve over time. The research findings indicate that: (1) At the system level, the coordination and interaction degree consistently improve, although the coupling and coordination exhibit fluctuating trends. The system progresses through various lag types, from port and city lag to industrial lag. (2) At the subsystem level, while the 'Industry-City' system remains stable, the 'Port-City' and 'Port-Industry' systems show fluctuating upward evolution, with U-shaped and W-shaped dynamic patterns. (3) At both the first- and second-level index factors, the primary lagging factors include industrial structure, city scale, and urban economy. Among the secondary indicators, the most significant lagging factors are total highway mileage and resident population. (4) The study highlights that the 'big port, small city' paradigm imposes significant constraints on the integrated development of Fangchenggang, with industrial development being the most critical challenge for future growth. This research provides new insights into the 'Port-Industry-City' literature by developing a multi-dimensional framework to assess the synergistic development of port cities and their industries.
Luminescence Dating of Stone Structures in the Northeastern United States
Authors: Feathers James K. , Mahan Shannon A. 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
There is no consensus on who built the numerous stone structures that dot the archaeological landscape in the northeastern United States. Professional archaeologists traditionally have attributed them to colonial farmers, but increasing numbers of archaeologists have joined many nonprofessional groups and Native Americans in arguing for Indigenous origins. Better understanding of these structures can be obtained by determining how old they are. This article reviews nearly 60 luminescence ages, on both sediments and rocks, that have been obtained in recent years. Many of the derived ages fall in the sixteenth century, between initial European contact and substantial colonial settlement. A few ages are significantly older, suggesting that this technology has a deeper origin. The results warrant more research into these structures and rethinking their significance.
Towards Non-Animal Testing in European Regulatory Toxicology: An Introduction to the REACH Framework and Challenges in Implementing the 3Rs
Authors: Stoykova Katerina 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
The European Union’s REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals) Regulation aims to ensure high levels of human health and environmental protection, while also promoting alternatives to animal testing. REACH permits animal testing as a last resort only and imposes the 3Rs principle (Replacement, Reduction, and Refinement of animal testing). Nevertheless, the current regulatory practices still heavily rely on animal-based methods. This study underscores the scientific limitations of animal models and highlights the ethical and methodological burdens associated with their use. It synthesises the challenges and opportunities associated with integrating New Approach Methodologies (NAMs) into regulatory toxicity testing under REACH, as highlighted by various scientific experts. Key challenges identified include contradictory and inadequate legislative frameworks, slow and restrictive validation processes, low acceptance of NAMs by regulatory authorities, and legislative amendments expected to increase animal testing. To create a more flexible regulatory environment and advance the adoption of NAMs, there is a need for legislative reforms and increased collaboration between academia, industry and regulatory bodies. In this context, it is also necessary that more legal scholars begin to show interest in this field to help tackle the multidisciplinary challenges to non-animal testing for regulatory purposes. This article provides an introduction to the field of regulatory toxicology with a focus on the REACH framework from a legal perspective.
Beyond the Neuter Universal: Hegel and Sexual Difference
Authors: Sares James 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Hegel is a complicated figure for considering the philosophical significance of sexual difference. On the one hand, he grants an essential place for sexual difference in his analyses of nature and spirit. On the other hand, he treats the telos of sexual difference as a kind of sexual indifferentiation. For Hegel, both life and spirit depend on sexual difference but as something to be sublated, that is, preserved but only in so far as it is negated for a higher truth or purpose devoid of it. This essay examines this sublation of sexual difference in what Hegel characterizes as the ‘universality’ of the living genus and the ‘universality’ of the rational activity of civil society. I argue that Hegel’s conception of this sublation of difference into universality relies in both instances on a teleological reduction of the ontological significance of sexual difference to reproduction and a contestable interpretation of the roles of male and female sexes in it. However, I claim that Hegel’s account of the relational identity of the sexes, each as not-all of the genus given the other, is a fundamental insight for an ontological analysis of sexual difference. As such, I open a critical reappropriation of Hegel's account of sexual difference for a more difference-affirming, non-hierarchal sexual ontology. I argue that overcoming the hierarchal implications of this Hegelian account of sexual difference requires rethinking the natural and rational universal, which amounts to rethinking what Hegelianism might mean today.
EPIMORPHISMS AND ACYCLIC TYPES IN UNIVALENT FOUNDATIONS
Authors: BUCHHOLTZ ULRIK , DE JONG TOM , RIJKE EGBERT 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
We characterize the epimorphisms in homotopy type theory (HoTT) as the fiberwise acyclic maps and develop a type-theoretic treatment of acyclic maps and types in the context of synthetic homotopy theory as developed in univalent foundations. We present examples and applications in group theory, such as the acyclicity of the Higman group, through the identification of groups with 0-connected, pointed 1-types. Many of our results are formalized as part of the agda-unimath library.

Published: February 2025

Résumé
Les élections municipales de 2021 à la Ville de Québec ont été marquées par une forte compétition entre cinq candidats et une saillance des enjeux concernant la construction d'un tramway et d'un troisième lien autoroutier entre Québec et sa Rive-Sud. Ainsi, cette élection représente un contexte idéal pour étudier le comportement électoral au niveau local et plus spécifiquement le vote sur enjeu qui a été très peu étudié dans le contexte municipal. Nous soutenons que ces deux enjeux ont acquis une valeur symbolique et ont été exploités comme enjeu de brèche par le candidat à la mairie Jean-François Gosselin. À l'aide d'une analyse multivariée, nous testons la relation entre l'appui aux deux projets de transport et l'intention de vote. Nos résultats montrent que les attitudes des électeurs envers ces deux enjeux sont fortement corrélées avec leur choix de vote et suggèrent une continuité entre le comportement électoral municipal, provincial et fédéral, du moins lorsqu'il est question de vote sur les enjeux.

Abstract

Objective:
The Mediterranean diet (MD) is a dietary pattern associated with several health benefits, including reduction of risk for various cancers. We conducted a study to investigate associations between adherence to the MD and colorectal cancer (CRC) subtype risk among Moroccan adults.

Design:
A matched case–control study.

Setting:
The five major university hospitals in Morocco.

Participants:
A total of 3032 subjects (1516 CRC patients and 1516 controls) matched on age, sex and centre were recruited between September 2009 and February 2017 at five major hospitals in Morocco. Diet was assessed using a validated FFQ. Adherence to the MD was assessed through a score, ranging from 0 (no adherence) to 10 (maximal adherence) and divided into three categories (low, middle and high). Conditional logistic regression was performed to calculate multivariable OR and 95 % CI with low adherence (score 0–3) as referent, adjusting for potential confounding factors.

Results:
Close adherence to the MD (score 6–9) was associated with reduced risk of CRC (ORa = 0.74, 95 % CI 0.63, 0.86), rectal cancer (ORa = 0.73, 95 % CI 0.58, 0.90) and colon cancer (ORa = 0.74, 95 % CI 0.60, 0.92).

Conclusion:
Our study, conducted in a southern Mediterranean population, adds to the evidence suggesting a protective effect of MD against CRC risk.
Improving Typhoon Predictions by Integrating Data‐Driven Machine Learning Model With Physics Model Based on the Spectral Nudging and Data Assimilation

Published: February 2025

AbstractThe rapid advancement of data‐driven machine learning (ML) models has improved typhoon track forecasts, but challenges remain, such as underestimating typhoon intensity and lacking interpretability. This study introduces an ML‐driven hybrid typhoon model, where Pangu forecasts constrain the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model using spectral nudging. The results indicate that track forecasts from the WRF simulation nudged by Pangu forecasts significantly outperform those from the WRF simulation using the NCEP GFS initial field and those from the ECMWF IFS for Typhoon Doksuri (2023). Besides, the typhoon intensity forecasts from Pangu‐nudging are notably stronger than those from the ECMWF IFS, demonstrating that the hybrid model effectively leverages the strengths of both ML and physical models. Furthermore, this study is the first to explore the significance of data assimilation in ML‐driven hybrid typhoon model. The findings reveal that after assimilating water vapor channels from the FY‐4B AGRI, the errors in typhoon intensity forecasts are significantly reduced.

AbstractBanded energy distributions of H+, O++, S+++, and O+ or S++ ions between 100 eV and ∼20 keV are consistently observed in Jupiter's magnetosphere mapping to M‐shells between M = 10–20. The bands correspond to flux enhancements at similar speeds for different ion species, providing the first evidence of simultaneous bounce‐resonant acceleration of multiple ion species in Jupiter's magnetosphere. Ion enhancements occur for energies at which the bounce frequencies of the trapped ions matched integer harmonics of the System‐III corotation frequency. The observations highlight a previously unknown interaction between corotation and bounce motion of <10 keV energy ions that is a fundamental and persistent process occurring in Jupiter's magnetosphere.
