Abstract
Addressing global concerns about youth mental health requires understanding longitudinal pathways to psychological maladjustment among diverse youth. Hostile attribution bias (HAB) and hostile rumination (HR) are cognitive vulnerabilities associated with multiple forms of psychological maladjustment among diverse youth. This study longitudinally examined whether HR mediates the relation of HAB to aggression, anxiety, and depression symptoms in a sample of adolescents from three countries. Participants included 532 mothers, 384 fathers, and 566 youth (50% female) from Colombia, Italy (Naples and Rome), and the U.S. (White, Black, and Latinx). Structural equation modeling indicated that youth-reported HR at Time 2 (mean age = 12.58 years) significantly mediated the relation of youth-reported HAB at Time 1 (mean age = 10.89 years) to parent-reported aggression and anxiety symptoms at Time 3 (mean age = 13.71 years; aggression: b = 0.05, 95% bootstrap CI = [0.006, 0.14]; anxiety: b = 0.06, 95% bootstrap CI = [0.01, 0.16]); but not to parent-reported depression symptoms at Time 3 (b = 0.02, 95% bootstrap CI = [-0.04, 0.08]). A reverse model indicated HAB at Time 3 significantly mediated the relation of HR at Time 2 to anxiety symptoms at Time 4 (mean age = 14.99 years; b = -0.01, 95% bootstrap CI = [-0.04, -0.001]), but not to aggression or depression symptoms at Time 4. Multi-group analyses indicated focal mediational paths did not vary significantly across national, regional, and racial subgroups or gender. Findings support the Integrative Cognitive Model of Aggression, providing evidence that HAB and HR may be vulnerability factors for aggression and anxiety among diverse youth.
Microbial phosphorus in loamy, basalt-derived forest soil is altered by plant nutritional status: a root-splitting study
Authors: Butler O. M. , Warren C. R. 
Published: January 2025

Abstract

Background and aims
Soil nutrient content is a major driver of primary productivity. Microbial biomass comprises a substantial soil nutrient pool, the properties of which could be shaped by plant nutrient-limitation status. We aimed to determine how plant nutrition affects soil microbial biomass nitrogen (MBN) and phosphorus (MBP), and whether such effects are linked to microbial composition.

Methods
To isolate the effect of plant nutrition on soil microbes, we used a split-root system with Syncarpia glomulifera Smith seedlings fertilised with either P-free Hoagland solution or a P-only solution, and quantified rhizosphere soil microbial biomass carbon (MBC), MBN, MBP, and microbial polar lipid fatty acids (PLFAs).

Results
Provision of N + micronutrients to S. glomulifera seedlings in basalt-derived soils led to a 19% decline in soil MBP relative to controls. This effect was not evident in comparatively P-depleted sandstone-derived soils. MBC and MBN were not affected by plant nutritional status, and neither were the abundances and composition of microbial PLFAs.

Conclusion
Rhizosphere microbial nutrient pools are potentially sensitive to plant nutritional status. Microbial P can be reduced when plants are P-limited. These effects are not necessarily paralleled by altered microbial composition, implicating microbial physiology as a possible driver of variation in microbial P.
Exploring Cultural Adaptations: A Scoping Review on Adolescent Mental Health and Substance Use Prevention Programs

Published: January 2025

Abstract
Adolescence is a critical period for developing risk behaviors such as substance use, which can impact health in adulthood. Culturally adapted evidence-based programs (EBPs) are promising for prevention. This review explores the processes for culturally adapting EBPs targeting alcohol, tobacco, or cannabis use, and/or anxiety or depression in adolescents. We searched multiple databases, grey literature, and relevant websites for studies detailing the cultural adaptation process of EBPs. We then categorized common adaptation steps, classified adaptations using the cultural sensitivity model, identified prevalent adaptation techniques, and determined effectiveness assessment methods. We reviewed the cultural adaptation processes of 43 EBPs. These programs were implemented in schools (51%), followed by family settings (30%), community settings (14%), and multi-component settings (5%). Eleven key steps were identified across the documents: local needs assessment, program selection, understanding of the program's curriculum, advisory group establishment, first draft of initial adaptation changes, staff selection and training, pilot study, enhanced cultural adaptation, implementation, evaluation and monitoring, and dissemination. Most programs integrated both surface (e.g., use of local images, material translation) and deep adaptations (e.g., incorporation of cultural values like "familismo"). Despite the common use of the cultural sensitivity model, detailed adaptation frameworks were often lacking. The field has advanced, but clearer documentation is needed to improve research and practical application.
Investigating and mitigating barren plateaus in variational quantum circuits: a survey
Authors: Cunningham Jack , Zhuang Jun 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
In recent years, variational quantum circuits (VQCs) have been widely explored to advance quantum circuits against classic models on various domains, such as quantum chemistry and quantum machine learning. Similar to classic machine-learning models, VQCs can be trained through various optimization approaches, such as gradient-based or gradient-free methods. However, when employing gradient-based methods, the gradient variance of VQCs may dramatically vanish as the number of qubits or layers increases. This issue, a.k.a. barren plateaus (BPs), seriously hinders the scaling of VQCs on large datasets. To mitigate the barren plateaus, extensive efforts have been devoted to tackling this issue through diverse strategies. In this survey, we conduct a systematic literature review of recent works from both investigation and mitigation perspectives. Furthermore, we propose a new taxonomy to categorize most existing mitigation strategies into five groups and introduce them in detail. Also, we compare the concurrent survey papers about BPs. Finally, we provide insightful discussion on future directions for BPs.
CPU-GPU co-execution through the exploitation of hybrid technologies via SYCL
Authors: Raúl Nozal , Bosque Jose Luis 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
The performance and energy efficiency offered by heterogeneous systems are highly useful for modern C++ applications, but the technological variety demands adequate portability and programmability. Initiatives such as Intel oneAPI facilitate the exploitation of Intel CPUs and GPUs, but not NVIDIA GPUs, which are present in systems of all kinds and are necessarily leveraged by CUDA technology. Frequently, only GPUs are used, leaving the CPU for management tasks, with the consequent loss of energy and system utilization. In this work, the CoexecutorRuntime system design and API are extended to transparently integrate backends of diverse technologies, unifying offloading mechanisms under a consistent co-execution API and scheduling runtime. Moreover, CPU-GPU co-execution of hybrid technologies is enabled to ensure performance portability. Experimental results show performance improvements for all programs studied, achieving average efficiencies of 0.91 and speedups of 1.31 over using only the GPU.
A Novel, Ecology-Inclusive, Hybrid Framework for Rainwater Harvesting Site Selection in Arid and Semi-Arid Regions
Authors: Ahmed Safaa , Jesson Mike , Sharifi Soroosh 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
The water crisis is a critical issue, particularly in arid and semi-arid regions where rainfall is limited. Rainwater harvesting systems have been introduced in many locations to capture what rainfall does occur, but selection of the optimum site is vital to ensure efficient capture and storage. Over the past few decades, a range of frameworks for ranking proposed rainwater harvesting sites on the basis of site suitability have been suggested. The goal of this study was to develop a robust methodology to extend these frameworks, which consider biophysical and socio-economic criteria only, to include ecological criteria in the site selection process. This is essential for ensuring environmental protection, maintaining biodiversity, water quality improvement, climate resilience, regulatory compliance and sustainability of the system. In this paper, the inter-relationships of ecological criteria are shown to be complex, with “independent” criteria affecting “mediator” criteria which then directly impact ecological standards, i.e. the “dependent” criteria such as number of aquatic organisms. It is shown how a robust combination of data analysis and expert opinion can be applied to determine relative weightings of the different ecological criteria, using temperature and light as examples of key independent criteria. The developed hybrid framework is applied to a case study of site selection in Erbil Province in Iraq, where both climate change and human actions have seriously reduced water supplies in the past twenty years, showing that inclusion of these ecological criteria changes the ranking of the sites compared to ranking without ecological considerations.
The Nullity of Nescience: G. R. Malkani’s Contemporary Formulation of Advaita
Authors: Barua Ankur 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
This article is a conceptual exploration of a central argument developed by Ghanshamdas Rattanmal Malkani (1892–1977) to indicate that ignorance (ajñāna) does not have any nature and it should not be invested with any measure or degree of substantiality. In his writings in English, we find a contemporary way of working through some of the key problems that appear on premodern Advaita exegetical landscapes. One aspect of the distinctiveness of Malkani’s hermeneutic style is that, generally speaking, he does not directly engage with, or even name, commentators from these premodern traditions. In the first three sections of this article, we will outline some conceptual problems that different exegetes—from Sureśvara (c. 800) to Prakāśānanda (c. 1600)—grapple with, and this discussion will lead us, in subsequent sections, to an exploration of Malkani’s articulation of the non-duality between the one and the many. Malkani’s view that non-duality has to be presented in terms of the utter absence of all traces of duality—material as well as notional—is resonant with similar claims in Prakāśānanda and his own contemporary Svāmī Satchidānandendra Sarasvatī (1880–1975).

Published: January 2025

Abstract
Smart homes have the potential to enable remote monitoring of the health and well-being of older adults, leading to improved health outcomes and increased independence. However, current approaches only consider a limited set of daily activities and do not combine data from individuals. In this work, we propose the use of deep learning techniques to model behavior at the population level and detect significant deviations (i.e., anomalies) while taking into account the whole set of daily activities (41). We detect and visualize daily routine patterns, train a set of recurrent neural networks for behavior modelling with next-day prediction, and model errors with a normal distribution to identify significant deviations while considering the temporal component. Clustering of daily routines achieves a silhouette score of 0.18 and the best model obtains a mean squared error in next day routine prediction of 4.38%. The mean number of deviated activities for the anomalies in the train and test set are 3.6 and 3.0, respectively, with more than 60% of anomalies involving three or more deviated activities in the test set. The methodology is scalable and can incorporate additional activities into the analysis.

Published: January 2025

Abstract
This study examines the morphodynamic evolution of the shoreline and coral reef coverage along the Arabian Sea coast of Oman over the past five decades (1972–2022). The Peninsula of Bar Al Hikman, the largest low-lying coastal area in Oman (550 km2; elevations < 10 m), hosts unique, monospecific coral reefs developing under a monsoon climate. Unlike other densely populated, low-lying coastal areas in the Middle East (e.g., the Gulf), the southern Arabian Plate has received limited attention, with few studies addressing its coastal evolution or future environmental risks. By combining sedimentological fieldwork with photo-interpretations of satellite images spanning 50 years, this study documents significant coastal geomorphological changes. The findings reveal a dramatic 60% reduction in the surface area of Bar Al Hikman’s main coral reefs. A significant consequence of this reef shrinkage is the rapid shoreline erosion on the leeward side of the disappearing reefs. Half of the southern shoreline of the peninsula is retreating northward at rates exceeding 1 m/year, with localized section (6%) eroding at extreme rates of over 10 m/year. At this pace, the ongoing reef decline is likely to exacerbate shoreline erosion, accelerate the landward migration of barrier bars and in turn close off lagoonal areas, and threaten intertidal ecosystems. Furthermore, with the ongoing global rise in sea level, a substantial portion of the peninsula is predicted to fall below the annual flood limit by 2050. This will result in the extensive landward migration of coastal sabkhas deeper into the peninsula's interior. Overall, this study provides a baseline for understanding the recent evolution of Oman’s Arabian Sea coastline and underscores the importance of developing policies and coastal management strategies to mitigate the effects of ongoing environmental and sea-level changes.

Published: January 2025

Abstract
The use of forest biomass could drastically reduce the environmental impacts of fossil fuel usage for heat and power in remote communities and can provide new opportunities for employment, retaining money inside communities. Here, we present the techno-economic feasibility of alternative gasification technologies for CHP uses in three remote off-grid communities in Canada. The analysis includes different scenarios of fuel price and operation costs, as well as two different feedstocks, wood pellets and wood chips. The results show potential for successful implementation, subject to planning on the specific conditions and location of the community. Power generation costs vary widely depending on the available biomass price, utilization of heat as well the power output of the system, ranging from about 0.25 CAD/kWh to over 1.20 CAD/kW. Economic support for biomass or removal of diesel subsidies would have a significant impact on biomass CHP implementations. The feasibility of the investigated systems is not dependent on the economics or technology itself but (i) availability of quality feedstock, (ii) utilization of heat for additional revenue generation, (iii) the utilization of the systems, (iv) community-driven bioeconomy alternatives and (v) carbon credit opportunities.

Abstract
Endometrial cancer (EC) is the second most frequent gynecological malignancy and the sixth most common women’s cancer worldwide. EC incidence rate is increasing rapidly. Apart from the classical, we should consider angiogenesis and hypoxia-related genes as a reason for EC manifestation and progression. We compared the patterns of HIF1A, EPAS1, and VEGFA (genes of interest – GOIs) mRNA expression in 92 cases. HIF1A and VEGFA levels were higher in EC patients than in controls. VEGFA differed significantly between controls and both tumor grades G2 and G3, and we observed a positive correlation for HIF1A and VEGFA with EC grading. VEGFA levels were significantly higher in post-menopausal compared to pre-menopausal patients. All GOIs demonstrated strong correlations in pre-menopausal cases and weak correlations in post-menopausal cases. A positive correlation was observed in pre-menopausal controls for all GOIs and in post-menopausal patients for only EPAS1 and VEGFA. HIF1A and EPAS1 positively correlated with VEGFA in post-menopausal EC cases. Multiple linear regression analyses revealed that menopause, body mass index (BMI), and HIF1A expression are significant stimulating factors for EC occurrence. HIF1A levels were higher in EC patients after BMI and comorbidity number adjustment. The gene-to-gene relation could be seen as either a diagnostic or a therapeutic target in EC. Physicians should inform patients about modifiable risk factors such as BMI. Second, more attention should be paid to diagnosing patients with comorbidities in older age and after menopause. These factors should be considered in designing angiogenesis and hypoxia-related gene-targeting therapies.

Published: January 2025

Abstract

Purpose
Assess the knowledge and attitudes of parents/guardians regarding their children's oral health and their preferences regarding the treatment of carious primary teeth.

Methods
A cross-sectional study including the completion of a questionnaire by parents/guardians of healthy children aged 2–12 years attending the Department of Pediatric Dentistry (NKUA). Data were collected through 35 questions regarding demographic characteristics of the participants, oral hygiene and dietary habits, and parents’ knowledge of the importance of oral health and primary teeth. Treatment preferences were assessed through clinical scenarios accompanied by colored clinical photographs. Results were presented in frequency tables and comparisons with specific child and parent-characteristics were evaluated using chi-squared and Fisher's exact test.

Results
Parents were mainly females (73%), married (81%), aged > 40 years (56%), and high school graduates (57%). Most children brushed alone (56%), twice (48%) daily, with a manual toothbrush (65%) and consumed sugary snacks daily (38%). More than two-thirds of parents recognized the relationship between oral hygiene and general health (82%) and the importance of primary teeth (72%). Almost all parents would like to restore their children’s asymptomatic (94%) and symptomatic (98%) primary teeth, with pulp therapy and stainless-steel crowns being the treatment of choice (58%). The decision on treatment about cavitated/non-cavitated primary teeth was not correlated with any of the parental or child-related factors. Acceptance of minimally invasive treatments was higher among highly educated parents and parents of boys.

Conclusion
Insight into parents' perceptions and preferences regarding the treatment of primary teeth is necessary and should be considered during treatment planning.

Abstract
Transition metal carbides, known as MXenes, particularly Ti3C2Tx, have been extensively explored as promising materials for electrochemical reactions. However, transition metal carbonitride MXenes with high nitrogen content for electrochemical reactions are rarely reported. In this work, transition metal carbonitride MXenes incorporated with Pt-based electrocatalysts, ranging from single atoms to sub-nanometer dimensions, are explored for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). The fabricated Pt clusters/MXene catalyst exhibits superior HER performance compared to the single-atom-incorporated MXene and commercial Pt/C catalyst in both acidic and alkaline electrolytes. The optimized sample shows low overpotentials of 28, 65, and 154 mV at a current densities of 10, 100, and 500 mA cm−2, a small Tafel slope of 29 mV dec−1, a high mass activity of 1203 mA mgPt
−1 and an excellent turnover frequency of 6.1 s−1 in the acidic electrolyte. Density functional theory calculations indicate that this high performance can be attributed to the enhanced active sites, increased surface functional groups, faster charge transfer dynamics, and stronger electronic interaction between Pt and MXene, resulting in optimized hydrogen absorption/desorption toward better HER. This work demonstrates that MXenes with a high content of nitrogen may be promising candidates for various catalytic reactions by incorporating single atoms or clusters.

Zusammenfassung
Der Beitrag setzt sich zum Ziel, in der Relektüre zentraler Textstellen unterschiedlicher höfischer Romane zu prüfen, inwieweit die lexikalischen Bedeutungsoptionen ›Quelle‹ und ›Buch‹ des mittelhochdeutschen Wortes buoch um die Bedeutung ›Text‹ zu ergänzen wären. Dabei wird die These aufgestellt, dass sich die Bedeutungen von buoch als interferenzsemantisches Netzwerk generieren. Im Zuge der Etablierung des höfischen Romans verweist ›Buch‹ im Sinne eines Textträgermediums sowohl auf den schriftlichen Vorlagentext als auch auf das Produkt des erzählerischen Schaffensprozesses: den schriftliterarisch konzipierten und fixierten Text.
