Key clinical messageIn SARS‐CoV‐2 pandemic different disorders in coagulation pathways in COVID‐19 patients were reported. We described a 44‐year‐old female with COVID‐19 and protein C deficiency history. She did not show any coagulation disorder during her disease course. Complete genome sequencing of SARS‐CoV‐2 was performed and some mutations identified and compared with Wuhan strain. Besides hospitalized patients, in COVID‐19 outpatients with low concentration of protein C, early prescription of an anticoagulant such as heparin could be helpful in prevention of venous thromboembolism or pulmonary embolism.

Published: October 2023

AbstractFour developed machine learning algorithms are proposed to prognosticate the CO2solubility in amino acid salt solutions, blended with amine solutions as additives, in broad ranges of temperature and pressure. From literature 375 experimental data points for CO2solubility were collected. The results from the applied algorithms indicated that the CO2solubility is estimated acceptably close to the experimental values. In the best case, the developed network estimates CO2solubility in the stated solutions with an average relative deviation of 6.53 % and a correlation coefficient of 0.9892.
Deamination of Polyols from the Glycolysis of Polyurethane

Published: October 2023

AbstractMethylenedianiline (MDA) is a secondary, undesired, product of the glycolysis process of polyurethane (PU) scraps due to hydrolysis and pyrolysis side reactions. As an aromatic and carcinogen amine, MDA poses different problems in handling, transporting, and labelling recycled polyols derived from glycolysis, hindering the closure of PU recycling loop. Aiming to provide a solution to this issue, in this work different deaminating agents (DAs) were investigated with the purpose of analyzing their reactivity with MDA. A first part of the study was devoted to the analysis of MDA formation as a function of reaction time and catalyst concentration (potassium acetate) during glycolysis. It was observed that the amount of MDA increases almost linearly with the extent of PU depolymerization and catalyst content. Among the DAs analyzed 2‐ethylhexyl glycidyl ether (2‐EHGE), and acetic anhydride (Ac2O) showed interesting performance, which allowed MDA content to be diminished below the limit for labelling prescription in 30 minutes. PU rigid foams were, therefore, synthesized from the corresponding recycled products and characterized in terms of thermal and mechanical performance. Ac2O‐deaminated polyols led to structurally unstable foams with poor compressive strength, while 2‐EHGE‐deaminated products allowed the production of foams with improved mechanical performance and unaltered thermal conductivity.

COFs have attracted considerable attention due to their unique designable structures and excellent material properties. Currently, COFs have shown outstanding potential in various fields, including gas storage, pollutant removal, catalysis, adsorption, optoelectronics, and their research in the sensing field is also increasingly flourishing. In this review, we focus on COF‐based sensors. Firstly, we elucidate the fundamental principles of COF‐based sensors. Then, we present the primary application areas of COF‐based sensors and their recent advancements, encompassing gas, ions, organic compounds, and biomolecules sensing. Finally, we discuss the future trends and challenges faced by COF‐based sensors, outlining their promising prospects in the field of sensing.

AbstractIt is highly challenging to activate the basal plane and minimize the π−π stacking of MoS2 sheets, thus enhancing its catalytic performance. Here, we display an approach for making well‐dispersed MoS2. By using the N‐doped multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (NMWCNTs) as an isolation unit, the aggregation of MoS2 sheets was effectively reduced, favoring the dispersion of Pt nanoparticles (noted as Pt/NMWCNTs‐isolated‐MoS2). Excellent bifunctional catalytic performance for methanol oxidation and oxygen reduction reaction (MOR/ORR) were demonstrated by the produced Pt/NMWCNTs‐isolated‐MoS2. In comparison to Pt nanoparticles supported on MoS2 (Pt/MoS2), the MOR activity (2314.14 mA mgpt−1) and stability (317.69 mA mgpt−1 after 2 h of operation) on Pt/NMWCNTs‐isolatedMoS2 were 24 and 232 times higher, respectively. As for ORR, Pt/NMWCNTs‐isolated‐MoS2 holds large half‐wave potential (0.88 V) and high stability (92.71 % after 22 h of operation). This work presents a tactic for activating the basal planes and reducing the π−π stacking of 2D materials to satisfy their applications in electrocatalysis. In addition, the proposed sheet‐isolation method can be used for fabricating other 2D materials to promote the dispersion of nanoparticles, which assist its application in other fields of energy as well as the environment.

Published: October 2023

AbstractPatient‐derived organoid models hold promise for advancing clinical cancer research, including diagnosis and personalized and precision medicine approaches, and cytology, in particular, plays a pivotal role in this process. These three‐dimensional multicellular structures are heterogeneous, potentially maintain the cancer phenotype, and conserve the genomic, transcriptomic, and epigenomic patterns of the parental tumors. To ensure that only tumor tissue is used for organoid development, cytologic validation is necessary before initiating the process of organoid generation. Here, we explore the technology of tumor organoids and discuss the fundamental application of cytology as a simple and cost‐effective approach toward organoid development. We also underscore the potential application of organoid development in drug efficacy studies for lung cancer and head and neck tumors. Additionally, we stress the importance of using fine‐needle aspiration to generate tumoroids.
Log‐Sobolev inequality for near critical Ising models
Authors: Bauerschmidt Roland , Dagallier Benoit 
Published: October 2023

AbstractFor general ferromagnetic Ising models whose coupling matrix has bounded spectral radius, we show that the log‐Sobolev constant satisfies a simple bound expressed only in terms of the susceptibility of the model. This bound implies very generally that the log‐Sobolev constant is uniform in the system size up to the critical point (including on lattices), without using any mixing conditions. Moreover, if the susceptibility satisfies the mean‐field bound as the critical point is approached, our bound implies that the log‐Sobolev constant depends polynomially on the distance to the critical point and on the volume. In particular, this applies to the Ising model on subsets of when .The proof uses a general criterion for the log‐Sobolev inequality in terms of the Polchinski (renormalisation group) equation, a recently proved remarkable correlation inequality for Ising models with general external fields, the Perron–Frobenius theorem, and the log‐Sobolev inequality for product Bernoulli measures.

On the incompressible limit for a tumour growth model incorporating convective effects
Authors: David Noemi , Schmidtchen Markus 
Published: October 2023

AbstractIn this work we study a tissue growth model with applications to tumour growth. The model is based on that of Perthame, Quirós, and Vázquez proposed in 2014 but incorporates the advective effects caused, for instance, by the presence of nutrients, oxygen, or, possibly, as a result of self‐propulsion. The main result of this work is the incompressible limit of this model which builds a bridge between the density‐based model and a geometry free‐boundary problem by passing to a singular limit in the pressure law. The limiting objects are then proven to be unique.

Published: October 2023

AbstractAimThe aim of this study is to evaluate the behavioral patterns and anxiety levels of pediatric patients in dental clinics, discern their behavioral expectations, and investigate the associations between these factors and the patient's age and gender.MethodsIn this cross‐sectional study, 150 pediatric patients visiting Sharjah Thumbay Dental Hospital for treatment were recruited over a study period of 23 weeks (February 12, 2022 to July 23, 2022). The patient's age ranged from 2 to 14 years. Guardians were informed about the study and their written consent was taken.Exclusion CriteriaChildren over 14 years old, children whose guardians refused to participate in the study, and medically compromised children. Frankl's behavior rating scale, Categorical rating scale, and Venham anxiety and behavioral rating scales were used to evaluate the pediatric patient's behavior and anxiety at the end of the dental visit, the evaluation was done by the same trained dental student for all the patients.ResultsWhen the Mann–Whitney U test was used for gender, no significant differences were observed in behavior and anxiety between male and female patients across all scales employed in this study. Conversely, when examining various age groups for behavior and anxiety using the Kruskal–Wallis test, significant findings emerged across nearly all scales. In the categorical rating scale, the age group of 11–14 years exhibited the most notable results in subscales of crying (p = .034), cooperativeness (p = .002), and apprehensiveness (p = .003).ConclusionThe pediatric patients who took part in this study exhibited heightened anxiety when attending dental clinics. This study underscores the importance of understanding child behavior and utilizing effective communication with children and their guardians. Dental professionals should consider implementing strategies to manage child behavior during visits. Further research is required to develop sufficient strategies tailored to different pediatric populations, aiming to enhance dental care outcomes for pediatric patients.

Published: October 2023

AbstractA novel Zn dipyrazolate metal‐organic framework (MOF), Zn(azbpz) (azbpz2−=4,4′‐azobis(3,5‐dimethylpyrazolate), has been synthesized and structurally characterized using micro‐crystal electron diffraction. The framework contains chain‐type secondary building units comprised of tetrahedral Zn2+ ions bridged by pyrazolate groups, resulting in guest‐accessible channels lined with methyl and azo functional groups. CO2, C2H2, C2H4, C2H6, C3H6, and C3H8 gas adsorption isotherms were measured to investigate the potential of Zn(azbpz) as an adsorbent for selective separation of binary gas mixtures. The data reveal selective adsorption of acetylene over CO2, and column breakthrough experiments demonstrate good performance for C2H2/CO2 separation.
Effect of modeling assumptions on predicting seismic responses of a three‐story reinforced concrete shear wall structure
Authors: Xiao Junyan , Kwon Oh‐Sung , Bentz Evan , Jung Jae‐Wook , Kim Minkyu 
Published: October 2023

AbstractThe behavior of short‐period reinforced concrete (RC) shear wall structures is often complicated and hard to predict accurately, even when the structure behaves in the elastic region, due to significant uncertainties in the material and the environment. Modeling assumptions used in finite element (FE) analyses often influence the accuracy of the dynamic response predictions. This paper discusses the numerical modeling of shaking table tests of a 3‐story RC shear wall specimen, which was carried out by Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute in July 2020. The experimental program is briefly introduced in this paper. Through nonlinear time history analyses using ABAQUS, the effect of modeling assumptions on the accuracy of the FE methods in predicting the linear and moderately nonlinear behavior of the RC structure is presented. Two commonly used modeling/model updating assumptions are considered: concrete Young's modulus and foundation flexibility. Influences of such modeling assumptions in predicting beyond design dynamic behavior (i.e., nonlinear responses and damage development) of the testing structure are also studied. The results showed that the accuracy of the dynamic response prediction of the structure could be improved significantly after calibrating the models against the white noise test results. Nevertheless, models established with different modeling assumptions can only capture the behavior of the structure at certain seismic intensity levels. Different models give results with a considerable variation in the structure's peak acceleration, floor response spectrum, acceleration amplification profile, damage pattern, and damage severity.
Exploring the relationship between clinical and personal models of recovery in anorexia nervosa: A mixed methods study
Authors: Kinnaird Emma , Cooper Myra 
Published: October 2023

AbstractObjectiveThere is increasing interest around the relationship between clinically defined recovery from Anorexia nervosa (AN), based on a reduction of symptoms and weight normalisation, and personal models of recovery which emphasise factors such as personal growth. The purpose of this mixed methods study was to evaluate the hypothesis that these two approaches are complimentary, with reduced symptoms associated with higher achievement in personal domains.MethodsEighty‐one adults who self‐defined as fully or partially recovered from AN were recruited into an online study and completed self‐report measures of clinical and personal recovery. Participants were also asked questions about their views on the clinical criteria, and this data was analysed using thematic analysis.ResultsPeople who were clinically defined as fully recovered scored significantly higher on measures of personal recovery compared to those defined as not recovered, and there were strong positive associations between lower behavioural and cognitive symptoms, and personal recovery. There was a weaker relationship between personal recovery measures and BMI. Qualitative data indicated that most participants felt that the clinical criteria were not a sufficient definition of recovery.ConclusionsImplications for the usage of clinical criteria for recovery from AN in research trials and clinical practice are discussed.

Published: October 2023

AbstractAccurate prediction of photovoltaic power generation is a critical technical problem for utilizing solar energy. Aiming at the problem that the model parameters are difficult to obtain in applying photovoltaic power prediction methods, this paper has used long‐term monitoring data of output power, various meteorological data, and solar irradiation intensity of photovoltaic modules. This paper establishes the functional relationship between the output power of photovoltaic modules and the irradiation intensity through Pearson correlation analysis. By deducing the distribution relationship of irradiation intensity, the prediction model of irradiation intensity based on peak sunshine hours and sunshine duration is constructed and based on 340 sites across the country 64 years peak sunshine hours and sunshine duration query database. In this work, the theoretical value of the prediction model on sunny days is close to the measured value (R2 = 0.918–0.985). The solar radiation intensity on rainy days is weak, and the prediction accuracy is low (R2 = 0.838–0.930). The relative errors between the sunshine duration and the peak sunshine hours in the database are less than 4.55% and 4.79%, respectively, under sunny conditions in each quarter, indicating that the accuracy of the database meets the actual needs.
The use of chimpanzee‐modified faunal assemblages to investigate early hominin carnivory
Authors: Bertacchi Alex , Watts David P. 
Published: October 2023

AbstractChimpanzees regularly hunt and consume prey smaller than themselves. It seems therefore likely that early hominins also consumed small vertebrate meat before they started using and producing stone tools. Research has focused on cut marks and large ungulates, but there is a small body of work that has investigated the range of bone modifications produced on small prey by chimpanzee mastication that, by analogy, can be used to identify carnivory in pre‐stone tool hominins. Here, we review these works along with behavioral observations and other neo‐taphonomic research. Despite some equifinality with bone modifications produced by baboons and the fact that prey species used in experiments seldom are similar to the natural prey of chimpanzees, we suggest that traces of chimpanzee mastication are sufficiently distinct from those of other predators that they can be used to investigate mastication of vertebrate prey by early hominins.
Uneven reproduction: Gender, race, class, and birth outcomes
Authors: Davis Dána‐Ain 
Published: October 2023

AbstractIn the United States adverse reproductive outcomes are often understood in terms of Black and White differentials within the context of US‐centric racism and as an afterlife of slavery. Yet similar racial variances in outcomes are found globally. How might we understand the persistence of adverse reproductive outcomes among Black women compared to White women in transnational contexts? Building on the concept of uneven development, this article uses the framework of uneven reproduction as one way to examine how inequalities are seared on reproducing bodies. Such framing shifts the analysis of adverse reproductive outcomes from a narrow view of racial disparities to one that explains those outcomes because of complex patterns of investment and disinvestment that reconfigure reproduction. In framing reproductive outcomes as uneven reproduction, this paper excavates three distinct historical cases in three geographic areas. Drawing from imperial and colonial contexts we can track different forms of disinvestment that were and continue to be detrimental to Black women.This approach serves as a lens against which to read the persistent racial differentials in reproductive outcomes facilitated by a transhistorical, transnational and intersectional understanding of the constraints that impede Black women's successful reproduction over time and across space.

AbstractYams (Dioscorea species) are an important food resource in Madagascar, where both cultivated winged yam (D. alata) and wild edible yams are consumed. However, there is limited knowledge on the nutrient composition of wild edible yams in Madagascar, and on how they compare with the cultivated winged yam. Therefore, in this study, nine wild edible yam species, one with two subspecies from Madagascar (D. bako, D. buckleyana, D. irodensis, D. maciba, D. orangeana, D. pteropoda, D. sambiranensis subsp. bardotiae and subsp. sambiranensis, D. seriflora, and Dioscorea species Ovy valiha), were analyzed for their nutrient composition, compared with cultivated D. alata. They include 6/6 of the most favored wild edible yam species in Madagascar. New nutrient composition data (protein, carbohydrate/starch, energy, lipid, β‐carotene, and minerals) are presented for these nine wild edible yam species. The results show that they contain comparable levels of lipids and starch to D. alata, but none are better sources of protein than D. alata. The results show that D. irodensis contains a significantly higher β‐carotene content when compared to all other edible yams analyzed, and that D. buckleyana, D. irodensis, and D. sambiranensis subsp. bardotiae have a higher calcium content than cultivated D. alata, while all nine wild edible yam species analyzed contain a higher iron content, compared to cultivated D. alata. The nutrient composition data presented could provide new incentives to conserve wild edible yams and inform on strategies to select Dioscorea species for sustainable cultivation and use, providing opportunities to enhance future food security in Madagascar.
