Investigation of failure behavior of glass fiber reinforced epoxy laminate under fatigue loading
Authors: Gupta Akash , Singh Manjeet 
Published: December 2023

Purpose
This study aims to evaluate the failure behavior of glass fiber-reinforced epoxy (GFRE) laminate subjected to cyclic loading conditions. It involves experimental investigation and statistical analysis using Weibull distribution to characterize the failure behavior of the GFRE composite laminate.

Design/methodology/approach
Fatigue tests were conducted using a tension–tension loading scheme at a frequency of 2 Hz and a loading ratio (R) of 0.1. The tests were performed at five different stress levels, corresponding to 50%–90% of the ultimate tensile strength (UTS). Failure behavior was assessed through cyclic stress-strain hysteresis plots, dynamic modulus behavior and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis of fracture surfaces.

Findings
The study identified common modes of failure, including fiber pullouts, fiber breakage and matrix cracking. At low stress levels, fiber breakage, matrix cracking and fiber pullouts occurred due to high shear stresses at the fiber–matrix interface. Conversely, at high stress levels, fiber breakage and matrix cracking predominated. Higher stress levels led to larger stress-strain hysteresis loops, indicating increased energy dissipation during cyclic loading. High stress levels were associated with a more significant decrease in stiffness over time, implying a shorter fatigue life, while lower stress levels resulted in a gradual decline in stiffness, leading to extended fatigue life.

Originality/value
This study makes a valuable contribution to understanding fatigue behavior under tension–tension loading conditions, coupled with an in-depth analysis of the failure mechanism in GFRE composite laminate at different stress levels. The fatigue behavior is scrutinized through stress-strain hysteresis plots and dynamic modulus versus normalized cycles plots. Furthermore, the characterization of the failure mechanism is enhanced by using SEM imaging of fractured specimens. The Weibull distribution approach is used to obtain a reliable estimate of fatigue life.

AbstractPrimary cicatricial alopecia (PCA) is a rare, scarring, hair loss disorder. Due to its low incidence, little is known about endocrine and metabolic comorbidities in patients with PCA. Thus, we aimed to investigate the association between PCA and endocrine and metabolic disorders. This nationwide, population‐based, cross‐sectional study included patients diagnosed with PCA or non‐cicatricial alopecia (NCA) and normal individuals without history of alopecia registered in the Korean National Health Insurance Service database between January 1, 2011, and December 31, 2020. We calculated the odds ratios of endocrine and metabolic comorbidities of patients with PCA compared to all patients or age‐ and sex‐matched patients with NCA or normal individuals using multivariable logistic regression models. A total of 3 021 483 individuals (mean age [SD], 38.7 [15.0] years, 1 607 380 [53.2%] men), including 11 956 patients with PCA, 601 852 patients with NCA, and 2 407 675 normal participants, were identified. Patients with PCA had an increased risk for dyslipidemia (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 1.14, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.06–1.24), diabetes (aOR 1.38, 95% CI 1.24–1.53), and hypertension (aOR 1.10, 95% CI 1.02–1.19) compared to matched patients with NCA. Regarding PCA subtypes, lichen planopilaris/frontal fibrosing alopecia was positively associated with hypothyroidism (aOR 2.03, 95% CI 1.44–2.86) compared to NCA. Folliculitis decalvans and dissecting cellulitis were positively associated with dyslipidemia (aOR 1.16, 95% CI 1.05–1.28 and aOR 1.16, 95% CI 1.04–1.29, respectively), diabetes (aOR 1.38, 95% CI 1.20–1.58 and aOR 1.52, 95% CI 1.32–1.74, respectively), and hypertension (aOR 1.10, 95% CI 1.00–1.20 and aOR 1.14, 95% CI 1.02–1.27, respectively). Similar trends were observed when each PCA subgroup was compared with the normal control group. This study demonstrates that patients with PCA are more likely to have endocrine and metabolic comorbidities than patients without PCA. Further research on these comorbidities may improve the understanding of PCA.
An overview of edible foams in food and modern cuisine: Destabilization and stabilization mechanisms and applications
Authors: Hu Xiangfang , Meng Zong 
Published: December 2023

AbstractFoam, as a structured multi‐scale colloidal system, is becoming increasingly popular in food because it gives a series of unique textures, structures, and appearances to foods while maintaining clean labels. Recently, developing green and healthy food‐grade foaming agents, improving the stability of edible foams, and exploring the application of foam structures and new foaming agents have been the focus of foam systems. This review comprehensively introduces the destabilization mechanisms of foam and summarizes the main mechanisms controlling the foam stability and progress of different food‐grade materials (small‐molecular surfactants, biopolymers, and edible Pickering particles). Furthermore, the classic foam systems in food and modern cuisine, their applications, developments, and challenges are also underlined. Natural small‐molecular surfactants, novel plant/microalgae proteins, and edible colloidal particles are the research hotspots of high‐efficiency food‐grade foam stabilizers. They have apparent differences in foam stability mechanisms, and each exerts its advantages. However, the development of foam stabilizers remains to be enriched compared with emulsions. Food foams are diverse and widely used, bringing unique enjoyment and benefit to consumers regarding sense, innovation, and health attributes. In addition to industrial inflatable foods, the foam foods in molecular gastronomy are also worthy of exploration. Moreover, edible foams may have greater potential in structured food design, 3D/4D printing, and controlled flavor release in the future. This review will provide a reference for the efficient development of functional inflatable foods and the advancement of foam technologies in modern cuisine.

Published: December 2023

AbstractPurposeTo develop an intervention enhancing hospitalized older adults’ nutrition.MethodsFor the first time, a mixed‐methods design with data triangulation was applied according to the six‐step model of Corry et al. to elaborate on a complex nursing intervention in the form of a logic model. Patients who were aged ≥80 years and hospitalized for at least 5 days were included. Sample size for quantitative practice analysis was 135 older adults, whereas 22 older inpatients participated in interviews and observations for needs analysis and generated data for key principles.FindingsThe intervention “Eat Enough” encompasses nursing team culture and comprises six actionable targets to deliver needs‐based support and reach required protein and energy intake for hospitalized older adults by sensitizing nurses and the interprofessional team. Facilitating nutritional intake would be supported by an advanced practice nurse who considers the medical and nursing care plan and therapy.ConclusionsThe intervention “Eat Enough” demonstrates that nurses play a key role in interprofessional teams to enhance older adults’ nutrition in hospital. The pipeline model displays how the actionable targets can be achieved, and how awareness raising can influence the context—leading to raised calories and protein requirement coverages and shorter length of stay.Implications for clinical practiceBy identifying risk factors of malnutrition and strengthening nurses’ responsibilities, the intervention “Eat Enough” could significantly enhance nutrition among hospitalized older adults. However, the logic model should be tested and implemented in future research.

AbstractAging is the primary risk factor for the development of numerous human chronic diseases. On a molecular level, it significantly impacts the regulation of protein modifications, leading to the accumulation of degenerative protein modifications (DPMs) such as aberrant serine phosphorylation (p‐Ser) and trioxidized cysteine (t‐Cys) within the proteome. The altered p‐Ser is linked to abnormal cell signaling, while the accumulation of t‐Cys is associated with chronic diseases induced by oxidative stress. Despite this, the potential cross‐effects and functional interplay between these two critical molecular factors of aging remain undisclosed. This study analyzes the aging proteome of wild‐type C57BL/6NTac mice over 2 years using advanced proteomics and bioinformatics. Our objective is to provide a comprehensive analysis of how t‐Cys affects cell signaling and protein structure in the aging process. The results obtained indicate that t‐Cys residues accumulate in the aging proteome, interact with p‐Ser interacting enzymes, as validated in vitro, and alter their structures similarly to p‐Ser. These findings have significant implications for understanding the interplay of oxidative stress and phosphorylation in the aging process. Additionally, they open new venues for further research on the role(s) of these protein modifications in various human chronic diseases and aging, wherein exacerbated oxidation and aberrant phosphorylation are implicated.

AbstractObjectiveIn recent years, safety concerns about modafinil exposure during pregnancy have emerged. In particular, increased risks for major congenital anomalies (MCA) and impaired fetal growth were reported, although study results were conflicting. Our investigation aims to examine previously reported safety signals.MethodMulticenter case series based on data from 18 Teratology Information Services from 12 countries. Modafinil exposed pregnancies with an estimated date of birth before August 2019 were included in this study. For prospectively ascertained pregnancies, cumulative incidences of pregnancy outcomes, rate of nonchromosomal MCA in first trimester exposed pregnancies and percentiles of neonatal/infant weight and head circumference (HC) were calculated. Potential dose‐dependent effects on fetal growth were explored by linear regression models. Retrospectively ascertained cases were screened for pattern of MCA and other adverse events.ResultsOne hundred and seventy‐five prospectively ascertained cases were included, of which 173 were exposed at least during the first trimester. Cumulative incidences for live birth, spontaneous abortion and elective termination of pregnancy were 76.9% (95% CI, 68.0%–84.8%), 9.3% (95% CI, 5.0%–16.9%), and 13.9% (95% CI, 8.1%–23.1%), respectively. Nonchromosomal MCA was present in 3/150 live births, corresponding to an MCA rate of 2.0% (95%CI, 0.6%–6.1%), none were reported in pregnancy losses. Compared to reference standards, birth weight (BW) tended to be lower and neonatal HC to be smaller in exposed newborns (data available for 144 and 73 of 153 live births, respectively). In nonadjusted linear regression models, each 100 mg increase of average dosage per pregnancy day was associated with a decrease in standard deviation score (SDS) of −0.28 SDS (95% CI, −0.45 to −0.10) for BW and of −0.28 SDS (95% CI, −0.56 to 0.01) for HC. Screening of 22 retrospectively reported cases did not reveal any specific pattern of MCA or other adverse outcomes.ConclusionThe results do not indicate an increased risk of MCA after in utero exposure to modafinil, but a tendency toward lower BW and reduced neonatal HC. However, these findings should be regarded as preliminary. Until further studies allow for a definite conclusion, modafinil should not be used during pregnancy.

Published: December 2023

AbstractThis study aimed to determine the carcass, visceral organ, and meat properties according to the sex in slow growing broilers (SGB) and fast growing broilers (FGB). Six broilers from each genotype and sex group were slaughtered every week. It was determined that the difference between SGB and FGB in terms of carcass yield occurred at the highest level at 5 weeks and this difference continued until the age of 10 weeks. The weight percentages of all visceral organs examined in FGB were lower than in SGB. Higher values of pH, lightness, and cooking loss ​​were determined in breast and thigh meat of FGB compared with SGB (P < 0.05). The effects of genotype on protein levels of breast and leg meats were found to be insignificant. The fat level in breast meat was insignificant between genotypes after the fifth week of fattening period. There was no difference between the sexes regarding meat quality in both genotypes. When FGB and SGB were reared under the intensive conditions for 10 weeks, it was observed that visceral organs developed in harmony with body weight, especially in SGB during the 10 weeks of fattening period and SGB maintained their superiority in terms of meat quality.

AbstractBackgroundThe benefit of adding rituximab to standard lymphomes malins B (LMB) chemotherapy for children with high‐risk mature B‐cell non‐Hodgkin lymphoma (B‐NHL) has previously been demonstrated in an international randomized phase III trial, to which the Japanese Pediatric Leukemia/Lymphoma Study Group could not participate.MethodsTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of rituximab in combination with LMB chemotherapy in Japanese patients, we conducted a single‐arm multicenter trial.ResultsIn this study, 45 patients were enrolled between April 2016 and September 2018. A total of 33 (73.3%), 5 (11.1%), and 6 (13.3%) patients had Burkitt lymphoma/leukemia, diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma, and aggressive mature B‐NHL, not otherwise specified, respectively. Ten (22.2%) and 21 (46.7%) patients had central nervous system disease and leukemic disease, respectively. The median follow‐up period was 47.5 months. Three‐year event‐free survival and overall survival were 97.7% (95% confidence interval, 84.9–99.7) and 100%, respectively. The only event was relapse, which occurred in a patient with diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma. Seven patients (15.6%) developed Grade 4 or higher non‐hematologic adverse events. Febrile neutropenia was the most frequent Grade 3 or higher adverse event after the pre‐phase treatment, with a frequency of 54.5%.ConclusionThe efficacy and safety of rituximab in combination with LMB chemotherapy in children with high‐risk mature B‐NHL was observed in Japan.

Published: December 2023

AbstractStudies on soil organic carbon stocks (SOCS) are increasingly relevant to developing efficient mitigation and adaptation strategies for climate change. Reliable information on soil organic carbon (SOC) content, bulk density (BD), and coarse fragments (CF) are required for precise SOCS calculation. The data quality of SOCS‐related variables is important to represent SOCS realistically across different levels of disturbance in the terrestrial ecosystems of Guatemala. The main objective is to develop Guatemala's first national SOC database to support studies of SOCS magnitudes and spatial trends. We identified and collected national sources of variables related to SOCS (SOC, BD, CF) across the country, mainly distributed in the central zone dominated by disturbed ecosystems and agricultural territories. We integrated 910 observations (soil samples and soil profiles) of SOC content (range 1.45–162 g·kg−1), 704 of BD (range 0.42–1.69 g·cm−3), and 8 of CFs (0%–21% weight). This new database represents the edaphic, climatic, and land use variability of Guatemalan territory. The database contains soil observations collected from 1965 to 2010. The year 2010 has the majority of soil observations (41%). SOCS‐related variables are standardized at 0–30 centimetres of depth using mass conservative splines, which are used to represent SOCS and soil depth relationships. We provide new information on SOCS across various ecological and environmental conditions to enable SOC monitoring systems to report reliable and accurate estimates. The new database is appealing for scientific and commercial purposes, such as representing Guatemalan soils in Earth system models or using soil information in the ecosystem services market (e.g., carbon markets). The new database is accessible to all users through the platform of the Environmental Data Initiative https://doi.org/10.6073/pasta/8dd15238c604c3ac75daf985548bd05c.
Profit‐with‐purpose corporations: Why purpose needs law and why it matters for management
Authors: Segrestin Blanche , Levillain Kevin 
Published: December 2023

AbstractIn this contribution, we present the recent reform of corporate law in France (2017–2019) and discuss its implication at two levels. So far, “purpose” was mainly a managerial concept, and most efforts to make corporations responsible have not changed the legal constitution of the corporation. By contrast, the French reform first revises corporate law and introduces the purpose in the constitution of the corporation; it thus prompts a reexamination of former approaches of the purpose of the corporation. Second, with its two components, a duty of vigilance and the possibility for any company to become “société à mission,” it brings into corporate law some principles to manage the future corporate activities. We argue that it is based on a conceptualization of management that deeply differs from traditional legal representations of management. We show that this shift calls for new research at the intersection of law and management.

AbstractMethods to reliably identify jump discontinuities in biological time series and to assess the specific contribution of various covariates are rapidly progressing. Here, we took advantage of these statistical improvements as well as those seen in complementary, down‐scaled climate and biogeochemical models to investigate causes of the substantial interannual variability observed in recruitment strength in hindcast analyses. This systematic meta‐analysis included 23 data‐rich, commercially valuable, warm‐ and cold‐temperate stocks in the North, Norwegian and Barents Seas. Since this study focuses on recruitment strength variability, we have used the term “recruitment regime shift” to distinguish from the concept of ecosystem regime shift. The breakpoint analysis revealed that the former criterion applied to more than half of the time series, mainly with respect to North Sea stocks but also to those in the Norwegian Sea. The exploratory analysis using vcGAM indicated that 1–3 shifts per stock were real, when using five drivers spanning spawning stock biomass to large‐scale climatic processes. Thus, non‐stationary relationships were extensively prevalent, indicating that each stock is uniquely adapted to its locally varying conditions. Outputs from the stationary GAM resembled those from the vcGAM but not after the threshold year. In‐depth case studies showed that the proxy of a given driver for the process which was to be included should be critically considered in a spatiotemporal context. Furthermore, the stock‐specific uncertainty associated with the given recruitment figures as such should also be an in‐built component of the model construct and thereby in the evaluation of the output.

AbstractDeforestation of tropical rainforests is a major land use change that alters terrestrial biogeochemical cycling at local to global scales. Deforestation and subsequent reforestation are likely to impact soil phosphorus (P) cycling, which in P‐limited ecosystems such as the Amazon basin has implications for long‐term productivity. We used a 100‐year replicated observational chronosequence of primary forest conversion to pasture, as well as a 13‐year‐old secondary forest, to test land use change and duration effects on soil P dynamics in the Amazon basin. By combining sequential extraction and P K‐edge X‐ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy with soil phosphatase activity assays, we assessed pools and process rates of P cycling in surface soils (0–10 cm depth). Deforestation caused increases in total P (135–398 mg kg−1), total organic P (Po) (19–168 mg kg−1), and total inorganic P (Pi) (30–113 mg kg−1) fractions in surface soils with pasture age, with concomitant increases in Pi fractions corroborated by sequential fractionation and XANES spectroscopy. Soil non‐labile Po (10–148 mg kg−1) increased disproportionately compared to labile Po (from 4–5 to 7–13 mg kg−1). Soil phosphomonoesterase and phosphodiesterase binding affinity (Km) decreased while the specificity constant (Ka) increased by 83%–159% in 39–100y pastures. Soil P pools and process rates reverted to magnitudes similar to primary forests within 13 years of pasture abandonment. However, the relatively short but representative pre‐abandonment pasture duration of our secondary forest may not have entailed significant deforestation effects on soil P cycling, highlighting the need to consider both pasture duration and reforestation age in evaluations of Amazon land use legacies. Although the space‐for‐time substitution design can entail variation in the initial soil P pools due to atmospheric P deposition, soil properties, and/or primary forest growth, the trend of P pools and process rates with pasture age still provides valuable insights.
