Published: October 2023

IntroductionThe garden petunia, Petunia hybrida (Solanaceae) is a fertile, diploid, annual hybrid species (2n=14) originating from P. axillaris and P. inflata 200 years ago. To understand the recent evolution of the P. hybrida genome, we examined tandemly repeated or satellite sequences using bioinformatic and molecular cytogenetic analysis.MethodsRaw reads from available genomic assemblies and survey sequences of P. axillaris N (PaxiN), P. inflata S6, (PinfS6), P. hybrida (PhybR27) and the here sequenced P. parodii S7 (PparS7) were used for graph and k-mer based cluster analysis of TAREAN and RepeatExplorer. Analysis of repeat specific monomer lengths and sequence heterogeneity of the major tandem repeat families with more than 0.01% genome proportion were complemented by fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) using consensus sequences as probes to chromosomes of all four species.ResultsSeven repeat families, PSAT1, PSAT3, PSAT4, PSAT5 PSAT6, PSAT7 and PSAT8, shared high consensus sequence similarity and organisation between the four genomes. Additionally, many degenerate copies were present. FISH in P. hybrida and in the three wild petunias confirmed the bioinformatics data and gave corresponding signals on all or some chromosomes. PSAT1 is located at the ends of all chromosomes except the 45S rDNA bearing short arms of chromosomes II and III, and we classify it as a telomere associated sequence (TAS). It is the most abundant satellite repeat with over 300,000 copies, 0.2% of the genomes. PSAT3 and the variant PSAT7 are located adjacent to the centromere or mid-arm of one to three chromosome pairs. PSAT5 has a strong signal at the end of the short arm of chromosome III in P. axillaris and P.inflata, while in P. hybrida additional interstitial sites were present. PSAT6 is located at the centromeres of chromosomes II and III. PSAT4 and PSAT8 were found with only short arrays.DiscussionThese results demonstrate that (i) repeat families occupy distinct niches within chromosomes, (ii) they differ in the copy number, cluster organization and homogenization events, and that (iii) the recent genome hybridization in breeding P. hybrida preserved the chromosomal position of repeats but affected the copy number of repetitive DNA.

Published: October 2023

Introduction:Based on the success of the former “Shaft-Actuated, Tip-Articulated” SATA-Drive, a prototype robotic instrument driver for modular, steerable, laparoscopic instruments, a new driver is designed and tested to improve previously lacking features concerning cleanability, instrument adaptation, practical application and control. The design of the driver engages these issues with a modular design aimed at re-use of both the instrument and the driver, for which a set of design requirements are established.Methods:A new modular design has been developed to improve cleanability through separation of the electro-motors and the instrument mechanism which clutches the instrument. Contamination of the driver’s robotic side is prevented though a combination of a drape and a Sterile barrier interface, while the instrument side is made sterilizable. A novel instrument clutching mechanism enables quick-release features, while a motor-axis latching mechanism enables plug-and-play assembly. Embedded sensors allow precise and fast control. A user-experiment was conducted on instrument exchange and assembly time, while mechanical and electrical tests were conducted on the driver’s responsiveness.Results:The driver has proven its ability to control the instrument, after which it can be disassembled for cleaning and inspection. The driver is designed for re-use through disassembled sterilization where all possibly contaminated surfaces are exposable for cleaning and inspection. The new standardized instrument clutches allow easy instrument (dis-)assembly. Instrument exchange is possible in two methods, the fastest of which is a median of 11 (6.3–14.6) seconds. The driver’s instrument mechanism is separated in a median of 3.7 (1.8–8.1) seconds. After assembly, the driver is operational in less than 2 s.Discussion:Instrument exchange times are similar to the semi-reusable Da Vinci systems, yet the MISLI-Drive is designed for sterilization, inspection and continual re-use. The modular build of the driver also allows easier parts replacement during maintenance, and requires minimal adaptation to different future scenarios, which is expected to reduce the overall cost of use.

Published: October 2023

Objectives: To prospectively investigate the association between Effort-Reward Imbalance (ERI) and over-commitment and the scores of the burnout dimensions over a 4 years follow-up period considering potential confounders.Methods: Data stemmed from CoLaus|PsyCoLaus, a population-based cohort study including 575 participants (mean age 55 years, 50% men). Participants completed the Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey, ERI and over-commitment questionnaires at baseline (T1) and after a 4 years follow-up (T2), and provided demographic, behavioral, psychiatric, personality and social support information through self-reported questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. Serially adjusted linear regression models were used.Results: ERI and over-commitment were not associated longitudinally with any of the burnout dimensions when controlling for confounders. One standard deviation increases in the scores of exhaustion, cynicism and professional efficacy were associated with one standard deviation increase in the scores of the same burnout dimensions longitudinally, and these associations were independent of the effects of ERI and over-commitment.Conclusion: Future studies should re-examine the effect of ERI and over-commitment on workers’ burnout, considering the effects of confounders.

Theoretical - system-functional analysis, synthesis, comparison, generalization; empirical - psychological and pedagogical diagnostic methods. Statistical - quantitative and qualitative analysis of data using methods of mathematical statistics (with the application of Pearson's hypothesis-criterion) followed by their qualitative interpretation and substantive generalization.
As the study showed, the contingent of medical higher education institutions is mostly extroverted, while natural sciences, by their nature, contribute more to the development of abilities inherent in introverts. This requires a review of the process of training future doctors in natural sciences. The study showed the connection of certain aspects of self-regulation in the process of activity with introversion and extroversion, which should also be taken into account when organizing work in science classes. In particular, this is necessary when establishing communication. Extroverts learn the material better when organizing group work, where they can show their communication skills.
In any activity, both one and the other type of personality work. Each of them has its own advantages and disadvantages. The advantages of each type must be used 100%, and the disadvantages of these two approaches must also be turned into advantages.
The disciplines of the natural and scientific cycle, by their nature, contribute more to the development of abilities inherent in introverts. Solving problems and performing laboratory experiments requires concentration and perseverance, the ability to encode and recode information, detailed analysis, which is characteristic of introverts. Extroverts are more inclined to work in a team and are less inclined to follow rules that contribute to the accuracy of measurements and calculations, focusing not on the measurement process itself, but on obtaining a quick result.

Aim. To assess the dynamics of left (LA) and right atrium (RA) strain after antral pulmonary vein isolation in patients with paroxysmal and persistent atrial fibrillation.Methods. The study included 57 subjects (31 men and 26 women) aged of 55.4±9.8 years. Patients were divided into 2 groups: group 1 with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (n=40; 70%) and group 2 with persistent atrial fibrillation (n=17; 30%). All patients were treated (were undergone) with antral isolation of the pulmonary veins. Speckle-tracking echocardiography at sinus rhythm was performed before interventional treatment, after 3 days, 3 months and one year. The reservoir, conduit and contractile LA function and peak longitudinal RA strain were analyzed.Results. In both groups, reservoir (p<0.001), conductive (p<0.001) and contractile LA functions (p<0.001 and p=0.001) decreased significantly in the early postoperative period. LA mechanics recovered after 3 months in all patients and were comparable to the level before and one year after radiofrequency ablation. RA strain was significantly increased in the early postoperative period. RA strain was significantly higher at one year follow-up period compared with baseline.Conclusion. Catheter ablation has a damaging effect on the LA - inhibition of reservoir, conductive and contractile functions in the early postoperative period, while the RA strain is intensified. LA strain is recovered in 3 months after radiofrequency ablation and remains comparable with the baseline level at one year follow-up. Reservoir and conduction function of LA and longitudinal deformation of RA are better in the patients with a stable sinus rhythm for a year after ablation compared with patiens who had a tachyarrhythmia recurrence.

Abstract
The NDCube 2 API is a Python application programming interface (API) for storing and manipulating N-dimensional coordinate-aware astronomical data. While there are Python packages for handling astronomical data and coordinate transformations separately and for handling specific combinations of dimensions and transformations, none provide a unified and agnostic way of handling them simultaneously. This leads to a proliferation of different APIs for conducting the same analysis tasks on similar types of observations and introduces technical barriers between multi-instrument studies and cross-community collaboration. In this paper, we outline how the NDCube 2 API and its implementation in the open-source, community-developed ndcube package, together with the AstroPy WCS API, help to solve this problem. We discuss the guiding principles underpinning the API design and provide examples of how it is already being used to serve broad sections of the astronomy community, including agency-funded missions. The aim of this paper is to help users better understand the purpose and potential of the NDCube 2 API and ndcube package and hence how to more effectively deploy them in scientific analyses and software development.
Mirror Acceleration of Cosmic Rays in a High-β Medium
Authors: Lazarian Alex , Xu Siyao 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
In a weakly compressible high-β medium, pitch-angle scattering and the associated scattering acceleration of cosmic rays (CRs) by anisotropic Alfvén and slow modes of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence is inefficient. To tap the energy from magnetic compressions for efficient particle acceleration, a diffusion mechanism that can effectively confine particles in space without causing their trapping or pitch-angle isotropization is needed. We find that the mirror diffusion in MHD turbulence recently identified in Lazarian & Xu satisfies all the above conditions and serves as a promising diffusion mechanism for efficient acceleration of CRs via their stochastic nonresonant interactions with magnetic compressions/expansions. The resulting mirror acceleration is dominated by the slow-mode eddies with their lifetime comparable to the mirror diffusion time of CRs. Consequently, we find that the acceleration time of mirror acceleration is independent of the spatial diffusion coefficient of CRs. The mirror acceleration brings new life for the particle acceleration in a weakly compressible/incompressible medium and has important implications for studying CR reacceleration in the high-β intracluster medium.
Predicting the Yields of z > 6.5 Quasar Surveys in the Era of Roman and Rubin

Published: October 2023

Abstract
About 70 luminous quasars discovered at z > 6.5 are strongly biased toward the bright end, thus not providing a comprehensive view of quasar abundance beyond the cosmic dawn. We present the predicted results of the Roman/Rubin high-redshift quasar survey, yielding 3 times more, 2–4 mag deeper quasar samples, probing high-redshift quasars across a broad range of luminosities, especially faint quasars at L
bol ∼ 1010
L
⊙ or M
1450 ∼ −22, which are currently poorly explored. We include high-z quasars, galactic dwarfs, and low-z compact galaxies with similar colors as quasar candidates. We create mock catalogs based on population models to evaluate selection completeness and efficiency. We utilize the classical color dropout method in the z and Y bands to select primary quasar candidates, followed up with the Bayesian selection method to identify quasars. We show that overall selection completeness >80% and efficiency ∼10% at 6.5 < z < 9, with 180 quasars at z > 6.5, 20 at z > 7.5, and 2 at z > 8.5. The quasar yields depend sensitively on the assumed quasar luminosity shape and redshift evolution. Brown dwarf rejection through proper motion up to 50% can be made for stars brighter than 25 mag, low-z galaxies dominate at fainter magnitude. Our results show that Roman/Rubin are able to discover a statistical sample of the earliest and faintest quasars in the Universe. The new valuable data sets are worth follow-up studies with JWST and Extremely Large Telescopes to determine the quasar luminosity function faint end slope and constraint the supermassive black holes growth in the early Universe.
La gestion de l’employabilité des grandes entreprises : une responsabilité partagée entre le salarié, le manager et la DRH
Authors: Blanchette Cynthia 
Published: October 2023

Dans le cadre de cet article, nous nous attachons au concept de l’employabilité dans les grandes entreprises en France et au Québec. Nous revenons sur la genèse et l’évolution du concept d’employabilité qui connaît de nombreux débats dans la littérature. L’employabilité interactive propose une vision globale au cœur des préoccupations alors que l’employabilité individuelle(initiative) place l’Homme au centre du concept. À bien des égards, la prise en compte de l’employabilité au sein de la Gestion des Ressources Humaines (GRH) devient incontournable surtout qu’il existe un corpus juridique sur l’employabilité en France et au Québec qui renforce la prise en compte de cet aspect dans les politiques des entreprises. Dans le cadre de cette recherche scientifique, nous optons pour une démarche qualitative. Nous collectons auprès de membres de la Direction des Ressources Humaines (DRH) de grandes entreprises 65 entretiens. Ces entretiens sont réalisés auprès de 33 grandes entreprises. Les résultats démontrent une réalité contrastée concernant la prise en compte du développement de l’employabilité des salariés. Cette responsabilité est partagée entre différents acteurs au sein des organisations : salariés, managers et DRH. Nous présenterons également des recommandations managériales.
Quête du label RSO et tensions de gouvernance : le cas d’un réseau de groupement d’employeurs
Authors: Méreaux Jean-Paul 
Published: October 2023

Les groupements d’employeurs (GE) ont plus de 20 ans ; leur principale mission étant de recruter des salariés et de les mettre à disposition de leurs entreprises adhérentes selon leurs besoins. Une des particularités des GE est leur fonctionnement associatif et la gouvernance est spécifique avec des élus bénévoles, souvent dirigeants d’entreprise ou cadres supérieurs, et des directeurs salariés. La question de la répartition des responsabilités se pose et peut mettre en exergue l’émergence d’une forme de technostructure (Baudry et Chirat, 2018). Dans un réseau de GE, il faut gérer en plus les relations entre les GE afin d’avoir des objectifs communs, ce qui suppose une forme d’alignement entre des systèmes sociaux différents (Luhmann, 1995, 2012, 2018). Or, lorsqu’il s’agit d’envisager une démarche RSO, la notion d’alignement prend tout son sens car il est nécessaire que les GE, composantes du réseau structuré associativement, soient des parties prenantes actives et collaboratives dans l’intérêt collectif. Nous montrons à partir d’une recherche longitudinale qu’il peut y avoir une forme de découplage entre l’intérêt individuel (GE) et l’intérêt collectif (Réseau des GE) qui peut être source de tensions dans l’optique RSO. Nous en proposons une grille de lecture à partir des travaux de Luhmann.
La collaboration Business Schools/Universités en recherche en gestion. La fin de deux mondes séparés ?
Authors: Laurens Patricia , Le Bas Christian , Vo Linh-Chi 
Published: October 2023

Problématique . Cet article traite des collaborations en recherche qui se nouent dans le domaine de la gestion entre Business Schools (BS) privées et Universités publiques françaises, historiquement très séparées. Nous cherchons à savoir si cette séparation (juxtaposition) perdure sur la période 2008-2018 marquée par la croissance de l’activité de recherche des Business Schools et des pratiques collaboratives (y compris internationales) dans le monde académique. Méthodologie . On a mis au point une base de données tirée de Scopus portant sur 15 494 publications issues de 1 177 revues permettant de décrire les principales tendances concernant la production de recherche académique en gestion des institutions françaises. Principaux résultats . Nos résultats témoignent de la fin de deux mondes séparés (ou juxtaposés) : le bloc des Universités (accrus des chercheurs CNRS) collabore de plus en plus avec les BS et constitue le premier partenaire en recherche du groupe des BS. Toutefois, les publications collaboratives entre les BS et les Universités-CNRS sont faiblement internationalisées et ont moins d’impact que la moyenne des publications des BS. Nous contribuons à la littérature en montrant que la collaboration entre organisations de recherche, particulièrement développée dans la décennie passée, peut être étendue à des collaborations entre institutions privées et publiques.
Confiance interpersonnelle et compétence collective : le cas des employés multiethniques au Cameroun
Authors: Sonkeng Germain 
Published: October 2023

L’objectif du présent travail est de ressortir les enjeux de la Confiance Interpersonnelle (CI) sur la Compétence Collective (CC) des employés multiethniques. Au-delà de l’investigation théorique, le travail empirique porte sur une approche qualitative et les données proviennent de 32 entretiens semi-directifs réalisés dans trois PME camerounaises. Après analyse de contenu basée sur une logique interprétative et compréhensive des verbatims, les résultats montrent divers enjeux de la CI sur la CC : coordination des tâches et coopération entre les employés, complémentarité des compétences, circulation des informations et partage des connaissances, dépassement des barrières tribales et résolution des conflits issus des tensions multiethniques.
À l’ombre des grands soirs. Les syndicats contre les souffrances du travail
Authors: Ponge Rémy 
Published: October 2023

Alors que les souffrances psychiques du travail (stress, burn out , suicide, etc.) n’ont cessé de se développer depuis ces cinquante dernières années, comment les syndicalistes, chargés de défendre collectivement les salariés, s’en sont-ils emparés ? Ont-ils joué un rôle précoce et moteur dans l’identification et la lutte contre ces maux ? Ou, à l’inverse, sont-ils passés à côté de cet enjeu ? Revenant sur l’histoire des mobilisations syndicales contre les souffrances du travail depuis 1945, cet article montre que très tôt des syndicalistes se sont saisis de la question des souffrances psychiques engendrées par le travail. Ils ont joué un rôle essentiel dans la production de savoirs sur ce sujet, mais aussi dans sa politisation. Néanmoins, ces initiatives ont régulièrement rencontré des difficultés pour s’inscrire dans la durée et bénéficier du soutien des directions syndicales. Le thème des souffrances du travail a alterné des phases de visibilité et de reflux jusqu’au début des années 2000. Aujourd’hui, si le sujet est bien installé dans le paysage syndical, il est investi par les directions syndicales comme un levier pour remobiliser les salariés, mais semble toujours susceptible d’être éclipsé par d’autres enjeux.
Premier sondage dans l’abri gravé d’Akirsa (Wolayta, Éthiopie)
Authors: Poisblaud Benoît 
Published: October 2023

Une première fouille réalisée au pied de gravures de l’abri d’Akirsa a livré plusieurs niveaux d’occupations. Ils ont fourni une industrie lithique majoritairement formée par des segments de cercle sur une profondeur de plus de deux mètres. Une première observation montre une réduction de leur dimension avec le temps. La relation de ces installations avec les décors est encore difficile à percevoir. Ce « sanctuaire » semble ainsi avoir été fréquenté par des groupes de chasseurs à une période supposée être dans les derniers millénaires av. J.-C.
