The International Grief Questionnaire (IGQ): A new measure of ICD‐11 prolonged grief disorder
Authors: Hyland Philip , Redican Enya , Karatzias Thanos , Shevlin Mark 
Published: November 2023

AbstractProlonged grief disorder (PGD) is included in the 11th version of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD‐11). This study sought to test the validity and reliability of a new brief measure to screen for ICD‐11 PGD—the International Grief Questionnaire (IGQ). The psychometric properties of the IGQ were tested using data collected from two bereaved samples of adults from the United Kingdom (n = 1,012) and Ireland (n = 1,011). Confirmatory factor analysis demonstrated that a correlated two‐factor model best captured the latent dimensionality of the IGQ in both samples. Estimates of internal reliability were high, whereas the convergent and concurrent validity of the scale were supported through strong associations with external measures. Measurement invariance and differential item functioning testing showed no statistically significant difference in the latent structure of the IGQ nor the functioning of the IGQ items by age, sex, and nationality. For participants who were bereaved for more than 6 months, the rates of probable PGD derived from the IGQ were 10.9% and 15.3% for the Irish and U.K. samples, respectively. The IGQ is a brief, easy‐to‐use, self‐report screening measure that captures all diagnostic criteria of PGD set forth in the ICD‐11. Findings from this study provide initial support for the validity, measurement invariance, and reliability of the IGQ among two national samples.

AbstractThe interlacing and mosaic distribution of karst soil and rock result in the high spatial heterogeneity of the natural karst habitat. Karst plants are suffered from spatially heterogeneous microhabitats with different‐sized patches. Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are crucial in regulating plant productivity and nutrients in heterogeneous karst environments. However, how spatial patch heterogeneity influences plant productivity and nutrient utilization by AM fungi regulation in karst soil remains unclear. A simulated heterogeneity experiment regarding soil grid patches was conducted by planting Bidens pilosa into a microcosm of a square device. Experimental treatments included the mycorrhizal fungus treatments inoculation with (M+) or non‐inoculation with (M−) Glomus etunicatum fungus, and the spatial heterogeneity treatments involved homogeneous patches (HO), heterogeneity‐small patches (HS), and heterogeneity‐large patches (HL). The growth and nutritional traits of plants were analyzed. The results showed that AM fungus promoted the productivity and nutrient uptake of B. pilosa by substantial increases in biomass, nitrogen (N) accumulation, phosphorus (P) accumulation, and N/P ratio. The spatial heterogeneity promoted the biomass and N and P accumulations of B. pilosa when inoculating with AM fungus. The mycorrhizal colonization rate and hyphae length were greater in HS than in HO and HL under the M+ treatment, with a greater response ratio of biomass, N and P under HS conditions. These indicated that the heterogeneous small patches had a greater promotion of the biomass production and nutrients of B. pilosa with inoculation of AM fungus because extensive fungal hyphae can acquire soil resources in more distant patches outside the root zone with more economical metabolic costs compared to roots. We thus conclude that patch heterogeneity contributes to plant productivity and nutrient utilization regulated by AM fungi in karst soil, and the broader nutrient capture induced by extraradical hyphae of AM fungi may be an adaptive mechanism for karst plants to cope with heterogeneous environmental conditions.
Effects of polycaprolactone viscosity on morphology, mechanical properties, water uptake, and cellular viability in poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate)/polycaprolactone blends for tissue engineering
Authors: Cavalcante Maxwell de Paula , de Menezes Lívia Rodrigues 
Published: November 2023

AbstractIn this study, two polycaprolactones (PCLs) with different molar masses were evaluated regarding their influence on the melt processability, morphology viscoelastic and mechanical properties, water uptake, and fibroblast and pre‐osteoblast viability of poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate)/polycaprolactone (PHB/PCL) blends. PHB/PCL blends were prepared in a mixing chamber following 90/10 and 70/30 ratios and later compression molded. The torque rheometry results show that the blends' processability is influenced by the ratio and molar mass of the PCL used in its obtaining, those being more strongly affected by the PCL with lower molar mass. The results indicate that the polymeric blend was immiscible in any proportion and molar mass of PCL used. The blends showed a sea‐island morphology in which the diameter of the dispersed phase depended on the composition. In general, even though the molar mass of PCL differed, the blends showed similar behaviors. However, a great difference was observed in the fracture mechanism for the blend with PCL of lower molar mass, which did not present the ability to fibrillate before rupture, due to its low mechanical resistance. The blends showed greater water uptake capabilities when compared to the pure polymers due to the diffusion of water through the gaps in between the phases. The blends showed high cell viability when tested in fibroblast cells of the L929 lineage and pre‐osteoblast cells of the MCT3‐E1 lineage, indicating that these materials are promising for application in bone tissue engineering.

Published: November 2023

AbstractThe efficient and simple separation of oil–water mixtures has been a global challenge due to the growing problem of oily wastewater. To address this issue, various materials with special wetting properties and functionality have been developed in the past decades for oil–water separation. In this study, a superhydrophobic cellulose acetate (CA) functional coating was prepared by electrostatic spraying of CA and chemical vapor deposition of methyltrichlorosilane (MTCS) on a stainless steel mesh (SSM). Water contact angle in air (WCA) of the resulting coating is154° or more, and oil under water contact angle (UWOCA) is 0°. Simultaneously, the separation flux of the resulting coating for oil–water mixtures is as high as 23977.77 L·m−2·h−1, with separation efficiencies exceeding 99%. Due to its excellent water repellency, the CA functional coating can effectively separate oil and water, and can be easily dried for continuous use. Furthermore, the CA functional coating exhibits good stability in salt solutions and acidic environments, making it an ideal material for addressing oily wastewater challenges.Highlights
The coating obtained by electrostatic spraying and CVD was superhydrophobic.
The separation flux and separation efficiencies of coatings is 23977.77 L·m−2·h−1 and 99%.
Coatings remain stable under polar environment conditions (pH = 2–12 and NaCl = 1–3 mol/L).

Published: November 2023

AbstractSchool‐based telebehavioral health service is increasingly important in addressing the health disparities youth in rural communities face. The study examines barriers and successes of implementation and sustainability of a rural school‐based telebehavioral health program from the perspective of site coordinators or school champions informed by the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research framework. Six coordinators participated in semi‐structured interviews and completed a self‐report questionnaire (organizational readiness for implementing change) to describe their experiences with telebehavioral health. The authors used thematic analysis to extract themes. The overarching themes included (1) benefits, challenges, and opportunities; (2) resources and support; and (3) work processes and challenges. Site coordinators endorsed their workplaces’ commitment to telebehavioral health but shared uncertainty about the telebehavioral health program's sustainability. The emphasis coordinators place on relationships, communication, continuity, and advocacy for families and students underscores their critical role in providing high‐quality telehealth services in schools and the broader community. Their perspectives are vital to ensuring these services’ continued successful implementation and sustainability. Site coordinators’ focus on the need for school‐based champions and increased awareness of telehealth services in their communities highlights a need for outreach efforts to continue engaging relevant stakeholders.
Teacher moves for supporting student reasoning in mathematics instruction
Authors: Bozkus Figen , Guner Pınar 
Published: November 2023

AbstractInterest in teachers' moves to classroom discourse has started to increase since how teachers respond to students' thinking influences students' learning. The purpose of this study was to investigate the moves used by one sixth grade mathematics teacher at a public middle school in Turkey to support student reasoning in mathematics instruction and their influence on classroom discourse. Six 80‐min lessons were analyzed with particular attention to how the teacher elicits, responds to, facilitates, and extends student reasoning. The results revealed that teacher moves mainly included low‐potential moves in all categories. The teacher mainly tried to elicit student answers in the lessons and aimed to facilitate their understanding through questioning. He also tended to confirm students' answers and re‐represent their thoughts to the class, occasionally adding further information. However, the results showed that the teacher had a dominant role in classroom interactions. Besides, from time to time, the teacher did not focus on student responses and postpone the student reactions. However, the teacher moves that limit student contribution, such as ignoring students' answers and insisting on their own points of view, reduce the depth of classroom interactions and student understanding. In general, the teacher's ability to support student reasoning and facilitate productive classroom discourse was not sufficient.

AbstractIntroductionPremature infants have an increased risk of respiratory morbidity, including the development of recurrent wheezing. We sought to determine perinatal factors in late preterm infants associated with an increased risk of recurrent wheezing in the first 3 years of life.MethodsA retrospective chart review of infants born between 32 and 36 weeks gestational age at a tertiary hospital from 2013 to 2016 was performed. Infants with any co‐morbid medical conditions were excluded. Recurrent wheezing was identified by two or more visit diagnoses for reactive airway disease, wheezing‐associated respiratory infection, wheezing, or asthma during the first 3 years of life. Those with recurrent wheezing were compared to matched preterm infants who did not develop wheezing.ResultsThree hundred and fourteen late preterm infants were included in this study; 210 infants developed recurrent wheezing while 104 did not. Gender, sex, and race were comparable between both groups. Development of wheezing was associated with positive family history of asthma (p = .014), receiving antibiotics during the neonatal period (p < .001), requiring continuous positive airway pressure for <24 h (p = .019), and receiving supplemental oxygen during the newborn period (p = .023).ConclusionThis study retrospectively identified risk factors associated with development of wheezing in late preterm infants. Prospective studies are needed to determine whether these factors will predict recurrent wheeze in this patient population.
Gravity Data Inversion by Adiabatic Quantum Computing

Published: November 2023

AbstractA quantum‐enhanced implementation of the binary inversion method for gravity data acquisition is discussed. The subsurface structure of a single density anomaly with an assigned density contrast is calculated by using a D‐Wave adiabatic quantum computer. In particular, an iterative heuristic based on quantum annealing that recovers a sharp shape of the subsurface anomaly is developed. Such a task is accomplished by collecting partial images obtained by quantum annealing processes for optimal Lagrange penalty coefficients. The results are compared with those obtained according to the same cost function minimized via genetic algorithms by conventional hardware on a realistic 2D dataset. The outcomes of this work are promising as the reconstructed model is obtained in tenths of iterations instead of the hundreds required in conventional methods. Moreover, for the part of the computation that resides in the quantum processing unit, the computational cost of the single quantum annealing descent is constant with respect to the number of degrees of freedom of the subsurface grid. The implemented method is likely to reveal its full potential on forthcoming quantum annealing devices, outperforming existing techniques.
Can green credit policies improve corporate ESG performance?

Published: November 2023

AbstractGreen credit policy, as an environmental regulation instrument in the financial sector, is gradually having an impact on corporate performance in environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG). Based on the implementation of the Green Credit Guidelines policy, this paper investigates the impact of green credit policies on corporate ESG performance from 2011 to 2019 using the double‐difference propensity score matching method (PSM‐DID) and the Heckman two‐stage method, using a sample of A‐share listed companies. It was found that the implementation of the Green Credit Guidelines effectively improved the ESG performance of firms in green credit‐restricted industries relative to non‐green credit‐restricted industries. It is further found that this is mainly due to the increased green focus of corporate executives, while the incremental effect of green credit policies on corporate ESG performance is further strengthened by the increased quality and quantity of corporate green technology innovation. Finally, heterogeneity analysis reveals that the boosting effect of green credit policy on ESG performance of enterprises in green credit‐restricted industries is more prominent in the sample of enterprises with more analyst attention, less financially developed regions and private ones. How to leverage the green credit policy dividend to enhance the ESG performance of enterprises, further refine, and improve the green credit policy to help enterprises' sustainable development are the most direct policy implications of this paper.
Bacterial Flagellum–Drug Nanoconjugates for Carrier‐Free Immunochemotherapy

Published: November 2023

AbstractThe combination of immunotherapy and chemotherapy to ablate tumors has attracted substantial attention due to the ability to simultaneously elicit antitumor immune responses and trigger direct tumor cell death. However, conventional combinational strategies mainly focus on the employment of drug carriers to deliver immunomodulators, chemotherapeutics, or their combinations, always suffering from complicated preparation and carrier‐relevant side effects. Here, the fabrication of bacterial flagellum‐drug nanoconjugates (FDNCs) for carrier‐free immunochemotherapy is described. FDNCs are simply prepared by attaching chemotherapeutics to amine residues of flagellin through an acid‐sensitive and traceless cis‐aconityl linker. By virtue of native nanofibrous structure and immunogenicity, bacterial flagella not only show long‐term tumor retention and highly efficient cell internalization, but also provoke robust systemic antitumor immune responses. Meanwhile, conjugated chemotherapeutics exhibit an acid‐mediated release profile and durable intratumoral exposure, which can induce potent tumor cell inhibition via direct killing. More importantly, this combination is able to augment immunoactivation effects associated with chemotherapy‐enabled immunogenic tumor cell death to further enhance antitumor efficacy. By leveraging the innate response of the immune system to pathogens, the conjugation of therapeutic agents with self‐adjuvant bacterial flagella provides an alternative approach to develop carrier‐free nanotherapeutics for tumor immunochemotherapy.

Published: November 2023

AbstractTripartite motif‐containing protein 21 (TRIM21), identified as both a cytosolic E3 ubiquitin ligase and FcR (Fragment crystallizable receptor), primarily interacts with proteins via its PRY/SPRY domains and promotes their proteasomal degradation to regulate intracellular immunity. But how TRIM21 involves in intracellular immunity still lacks systematical understanding. Herein, it is probed into the TRIM21‐related literature and raises an interacting model about how TRIM21 orchestrates proteins in cytosol. In this novel model, TRIM21 generally interacts with miscellaneous protein in intracellular immunity in two ways: For one, TRIM21 solely plays as an E3, ubiquitylating a glut of proteins that contain specific interferon‐regulatory factor, nuclear transcription factor kappaB, virus sensors and others, and involving inflammatory responses. For another, TRIM21 serves as both E3 and specific FcR that detects antibody‐complexes and facilitates antibody destroying target proteins. Correspondingly delineated as Fc‐independent signaling and Fc‐dependent signaling in this review, how TRIM21's interactions contribute to intracellular immunity, expecting to provide a systematical understanding of this important protein and invest enlightenment for further research on the pathogenesis of related diseases and its prospective application is elaborated.

Published: November 2023

AbstractIron tailings have been extensively studied as mineral admixtures and as coarse and fine aggregates. However, few studies have been conducted on the mechanical properties of iron tailings concrete structures. Using iron tailings powder as an mineral admixture, and iron tailings gravel and sand as coarse and fine aggregates, respectively, the flexural behavior of full iron tailings concrete (FITC) beams was investigated experimentally. Compared with conventional concrete (CC) beam, we showed that the crack‐resistant, yield, and ultimate moments of FITC beams are similar to those of the concrete strain of FITC beams, which is in good agreement with the plane section assumption before cracks appear. The low elastic modulus of FITC makes the deflection of three FITC beams larger than that of a CC beam. The current design code of China is appropriate for calculating the load‐carrying capacity of FITC beam; however, the deflection calculation formula should be modified.

AbstractTropical rainforests and related biomes are found in Asia, Australia, Africa, Central and South America, Mexico, and many Pacific Islands. These biomes encompass less than 20% of Earth's terrestrial area, may contain about 50% of the planet's biodiversity, and are endangered regions vulnerable to deforestation. Tropical rainforests have a great diversity of substrates that can be colonized by yeasts. These unicellular fungi contribute to the recycling of organic matter, may serve as a food source for other organisms, or have ecological interactions that benefit or harm plants, animals, and other fungi. In this review, we summarize the most important studies of yeast biodiversity carried out in these biomes, as well as new data, and discuss the ecology of yeast genera frequently isolated from tropical forests and the potential of these microorganisms as a source of bioinnovation. We show that tropical forest biomes represent a tremendous source of new yeast species. Although many studies, most using culture‐dependent methods, have already been carried out in Central America, South America, and Asia, the tropical forest biomes of Africa and Australasia remain an underexplored source of novel yeasts. We hope that this review will encourage new researchers to study yeasts in unexplored tropical forest habitats.
Island formula in Planck brane

Abstract
Double holography offers a profound understanding of the island formula by describing a gravitational system on AdSd coupled to a conformal field theory on ℝ1,d−1, dual to an AdSd+1 spacetime with an end-of-the-world (EOW) brane. In this work, we extend the proposal in [12] by considering that the dual bulk spacetime has two EOW branes: one with a gravitational system and the other with a thermal bath. We demonstrate an equivalence between this proposal and the wedge holographic theory. We examine it in both Anti-de Sitter gravity and de Sitter gravity by calculating the entanglement entropy of the Hawking radiation. Finally, we employ the doubly holographic model to verify the formula for the entanglement entropy in a subregion within conformally flat spacetime.
