Invasion status of hatchery‐origin pink salmon in an unstocked river at the Shiretoko World Natural Heritage Site in northern Japan
Authors: Yamada Taihei , Nobetsu Takahiro , Urabe Hirokazu , Nakamura Futoshi 
Published: February 2024

AbstractHatchery fish and their offspring (including hatchery‐wild hybrids) have lower reproductive success than wild fish. Thus, the straying of hatchery fish may negatively impact wild populations, depending on the number of wild salmon returning and hatchery strays. We investigated the straying status of hatchery‐origin pink salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha), which have a higher straying rate than other salmonids, in an unstocked river at the Shiretoko World Natural Heritage Site, Japan. The hatchery strays accounted for 40.0% and 19.0% of the total samples in 2021 and 2022, respectively. These results indicate that hatchery pink salmon have invaded unstocked rivers and potentially genetically affect wild populations.
More than just ‘added value’: The perils of not establishing shared core facilities in resource‐constrained communities

Published: February 2024

AbstractThe accelerating pace of technological advancements necessitates specialised expertise and cutting‐edge instruments to maintain competitive research in life sciences. Core facilities – collaborative laboratories equipped with state‐of‐the‐art tools and staffed by expert personnel – are vital resources that support diverse scientific endeavours. However, their adoption in lower‐income communities has been comparatively stagnant due to both financial and cultural challenges. This paper explores the perils of not supporting core facilities on national research enterprises, underscoring the need for balanced investments in discovery science and crucial infrastructure support. We explore the implications from the perspectives of funders, university leaders and lab heads. We advocate for a paradigm shift to recognise these facilities as essential components of national research efforts. Core facilities are positioned not as optional but as strategic investments that can catalyse breakthroughs, particularly in environments with limited resources.

AbstractBackgroundPhotothermolysis effect, resulting from laser procedures, can cause redness/erythema, skin irritation and burning sensation, these symptoms may persist more than several days after the procedure and leading to discomfort for patients. Proper management is necessary for the better outcome, especially in early period after the laser procedure. Laminin‐5 fragment contained soothing cream (CEBELIA Extreme Care®), is believed to have the calming/soothing effect on overheated/irritated skin after undergoing the laser treatment. It is assumed that cream can help alleviate the redness, erythema and burning sensation commonly experienced after laser treatments.This study aimed to assess the effectiveness and safety of Laminin‐5 fragment contained soothing cream (CEBELIA Extreme Care®) during the early post‐laser care period.Materials and MethodsThis prospective split‐face study involved 28 patients who underwent CO2 laser procedures and met inclusion criteria. The laser treatment was performed on both sides of the midface, and subsequently, the Laminin‐5 fragment contained soothing cream (CEBELIA Extreme Care®) was applied to one side of the midface.The efficacy of the cream was evaluated through objective measures, including photographic evaluation by two independent evaluators and assessment using an automatic skin analysis device. Subjective evaluations were also conducted.ResultsThe objective evaluation, based on the erythema score, revealed a statistical significant difference (p < 0.05) between the side treated with Laminin‐5 fragment contained soothing cream (CEBELIA Extreme Care®) and the control side. The erythema score was 1.34 ± 2.469 after the laser treatment with subsequent application of the cream for 10 min and 0.7 ± 2.28 on the second day after the procedure. The subjective evaluation showed a statistically significant high of patient satisfaction. No complications were observed during the follow‐up period.ConclusionThe application of Laminin‐5 fragment contained soothing cream (CEBELIA Extreme Care®) after the CO2 laser treatment was found to be effective, particularly when applied for 10 min after the laser treatment and on the second day after the procedure. Both objective and subjective evaluations yielded significantly different results. Patients reported a high satisfaction rate with the characteristics of the cream during the follow‐up period.

Published: February 2024

AbstractBackgroundTo increase skin permeability, various transdermal delivery techniques have been developed. However, due to the stratum corneum as a skin barrier, transdermal delivery remains limited.AimsIn this study, we evaluated efficacy and safety of arc‐poration as a novel technique disrupting the stratum corneum.ResultsOptical images and histological analysis using reconstituted human skin and porcine skin showed that the treatment of arc‐poration created micropores with an average diameter of approximately 100 μm only to the depth of the stratum corneum, but not viable epidermis. In addition, the Franz diffusion cell experiment using reconstituted human skin showed a remarkable increase in permeability following pretreatment with arc‐poration. Clinical results clearly demonstrated the enhancement of the skin‐improving effect of cosmetics by pretreatment of arc‐poration in terms of gloss, hydration, flakiness, texture, tone, tone evenness, and pigmentation of skin, without causing abnormal skin responses. The concentration of ozone and nitrogen oxides generated by arc‐poration was below the permissible value for the human body.ConclusionsArc‐poration can increase skin permeability by creating stratum corneum‐specific micropores, which can enhance the skin‐improving effect of cosmetics without adverse responses.

AbstractResearch on how cross‐sector partnerships (CSPs) contribute toward addressing societal grand challenges (SGCs) has burgeoned, yet studies differ significantly in what scholars analyze and how. These differences matter as they influence the reported results. In the absence of a comprehensive framework to expose the analytical choices behind each study and their implications, this diversity challenges interpretation and consolidation of evidence upon which novel theory and practical interventions can be developed. In this study, we conduct a systematic review of scholarly analysis in CSP management studies to develop a framework that contextualizes the SGC‐related evidence and reveals scholars’ analytical choices and their implications. Conceptually, we advance the term ‘SGC interventions’ to illuminate the black box leading to SGC‐related effects, thus helping to differentiate between transformative versus mitigative interventions in scholars’ analytical focus. Moreover, the framework stresses the logical interplay between the framing of the SGC‐related problem and the reporting of the intervention's effects. Through this, we juxtapose what we call problem‐centric versus solution‐centric SGC analysis and so differentiate between their analytical purpose. We discuss the framework's implications for advancing an SGC perspective in scholarly analysis of CSPs and outline avenues for future research.
The effects of robots on internal migration: Evidence from China
Authors: Bian Xiaoyu , Zhou Guangsu 
Published: February 2024

AbstractChina has experienced a boom of industrial robots in the past decade. Under the shock of robotization on labor market, migration is a critical way to rebalance the economy. While many studies have investigated the influence of robotization on labor market in the automation‐advanced countries, few works shed light on the situation in the emerging market. We provide empirical evidence on the effect of industrial robots on intercity migration in China. We find that, industrial robot adoption has a significant negative effect on the net inflow migration by reducing population inflows, while has little effect on population outflows. The decline in population inflows is concentrated among low‐skilled migrants who are younger, less educated and in manufacturing sectors, because they are more likely to experience unemployment and wage declines in the face of industrial robots. The analysis of migration cost demonstrates that the negative impact of industrial robots on population inflows increases with the longer migration distances, higher living costs, and greater institutional entry barriers caused by Hukou Registration System in China.

AbstractBackgroundThe World Health Organization (WHO) has set targets to eliminate viral hepatitis, including hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, by 2030. We present the results of the in‐hospital Reflex tEsting ALarm‐C (REAL‐C) model, which incorporates reflex HCV RNA testing and sending alerts to physicians.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective study analysing the data of 1730 patients who newly tested positive for anti‐HCV between March 2020 and June 2023. Three distinct periods were defined: pre‐REAL‐C (n = 696), incomplete REAL‐C (n = 515) and complete REAL‐C model periods (n = 519). The primary outcome measure was the HCV RNA testing rate throughout the study period. Additionally, we assessed the referral rate to the gastroenterology department, linkage time for diagnosis and treatment and the treatment rate.ResultsThe rate of HCV RNA testing increased significantly from 51.0% (pre‐REAL‐C) to 95.6% (complete REAL‐C). This improvement was consistent across clinical departments, regardless of patients' comorbidities. Among patients with confirmed HCV infection, the gastroenterology referral rate increased from 57.1% to 81.1% after the REAL‐C model. The treatment rate among treatment‐eligible patients was 92.4% during the study period. The mean interval from anti‐HCV positivity to HCV RNA testing decreased from 45.1 to 1.9 days. The mean interval from the detection of anti‐HCV positivity to direct‐acting antiviral treatment also decreased from 89.5 to 49.5 days with the REAL‐C model.ConclusionThe REAL‐C model, featuring reflex testing and physician alerts, effectively increased HCV RNA testing rates and streamlined care cascades. Our model facilitated progress towards achieving WHO's elimination goals for HCV infection.
Conservation implications of hibernation in mammals

Abstract

Hibernation is a life history strategy for conservation of energy during adverse conditions, primarily of temperature or resource availability. Whilst energy conservation is beneficial in itself, it is less clear whether hibernation confers wider conservation benefits or mitigates or exacerbates a wide range of threats.

We briefly review how hibernation manifests in mammalian biology, primarily through energy budgets, activity levels and resource requirements, but then ask how these interact with existing pressures to affect conservation risk. We also explore conservation actions that could alleviate the negative relations between some pressures and hibernation biology and review the available evidence for these measures.

Hibernation can convey some protection from disease and predation, though there are notable exceptions, for example white‐nose syndrome. There is well‐established evidence that hibernators are prone to hazards of disturbance during hibernation, necessitating careful mitigation. Hibernators exhibit diverse responses to the pressures related to climate change, including temperature variability and phenological and range mismatches. Yet for each aspect, there are examples of species and populations responding negatively, such as with reduced survival, which suggests that hibernation could exacerbate the negative consequences of climate change.

Though there are times when hibernators do not respond as expected, we find several positive conservation actions, such as modern grilles and regulations reducing the disturbance of cave‐hibernating bat species. Understanding and working with hibernation biology can, therefore, successfully mitigate the additional risks it confers.
Teachers’ multimodal resources for delegated peer repair: Maximizing interactional space in whole‐class interaction in the foreign language classroom
Authors: Batlle Rodríguez Jaume , Evnitskaya Natalia 
Published: February 2024

AbstractIn classrooms, teachers play a fundamental role in managing students’ participation. As part of their classroom interactional competence to maximize interactional space for students’ learning, teachers use multimodal resources to orchestrate turn‐taking, allocate the next speaker, and manage repair sequences. However, little is known about how teachers employ these resources to engage learners in delegated peer repair, that is, repair sequences initiated by a student and solved by another classmate. Adopting a multimodal conversation analysis approach, this study aims to investigate how Spanish‐as‐a‐foreign‐language teachers multimodally manage delegated peer repair in whole‐group interaction by increasing interactional space to promote students’ participation. The findings show that teachers often resort to embodied resources such as gaze, gestures (pointing), and hand and body movements (stepping backward) to engage students in delegated peer repair, leading to increased student participation and autonomy. We end with some reflections on the relevance of the adopted methodology for better understanding how teachers employ multimodal resources to create interactional space and engage students in delegated peer repair, thus promoting learners’ interactional competence in the foreign language. It also suggests some potential implications for teachers’ professional development.
Nursing's professional character: A chimera?
Authors: Lipscomb Martin 
Published: February 2024

AbstractDoes nursing possess a character? The idea that professions have characters is hard to sustain, and the possibility that nursing as a collectively or occupation lacks a character is worth considering. To this end it is argued that absent robust theoretical and/or evidential scaffolding it is implausible to suppose that nursing has an objectively real (reality describing) character, and if ‘nursing's character’ is chimeric or illusory, aspects of our conception of professionalism require reappraisal. Specifically, traits and values that attach to nursing and are implicated in the concept of character are, shorn of their moorings, untethered. This may be significant.
The ‘Euphoria’ effect: A popular HBO show, Gen Z, and drug policy beliefs

Published: February 2024

AbstractObjectiveCan a fictional show affect its audience's perspectives on the issue of drug use and addiction in society? This article aims to answer that question.MethodsWe use a survey with an embedded experiment to assess the relationship between the popular HBO show Euphoria and attitudes of Gen Z on the issue of drugs, including: feelings toward drug users and those caught up in drug addiction; beliefs regarding the causes of drug addiction; and, attitudes toward harm reduction, treatment, and punitive drug policies. Subjects were recruited from Amazon's Mechanical Turk.ResultsWe found that reevoking the show by showing photos of two of the main characters led to drug attitudes consistent with the messages about drugs found in Euphoria. We also found that self‐reported exposure to the show was associated with perspectives on drugs consistent with the content of the show for respondents who scored higher on individual transportability—results that conform closely to theoretical expectations. The fact that these results were found in a study 8 months after the final episode of Euphoria was aired hints at the durability of the show's effects.ConclusionsThe results add to the growing body of research on the political effects of entertainment media and provide additional validation of new and important measures of the propensity of individuals to be transported by narratives and eudaimonic motivation in entertainment media choice.
A case study in underspecification of UG: External Pair Merge of v and T
Authors: Blümel Andreas 
Published: February 2024

AbstractPrevious works have explored the options of Pair Merging R and v as well as T and C, respectively, yielding R‐v and T‐C with various consequences. This paper proposes that v and T can yield the complex head v‐T, an amalgam formed by external Pair Merge. Some empirical ramifications for the verb cluster and the middle field in German are explored. If tenable, the current approach supports the idea that heads can Merge freely, either by internal or external Set Merge, as well as by internal or by external Pair Merge.
Biology of the invasive species Eragrostis plana in Southern Brazil: What have we learned and how may this help us manage it?
Authors: Zabala‐Pardo Diana , Lamego Fabiane Pinto 
Published: February 2024

AbstractSince its accidental introduction in 1951, the South African species Eragrostis plana has invaded a large part of the Pampa biome in South America, a highly diverse grassland ecosystem that has coexisted with livestock since its introduction at the beginning of the 17th century. E. plana, a perennial tussock grass with a deep and abundant root system, is resistant to frost and cattle grazing, and a successful competitor for environmental resources. The species is diploid, C4 dispersed endozoochorically, and flowers in late spring and early summer, with optimal germination occurring at 35°C and viability up to 39–40°C. It is allelopathic because it produces several phenols and alkaloids. Extreme soil disturbance or intense grazing favours initial invasion. Nonetheless, grazing exclusion enhances E. plana competition and affects the grassland community and diversity. E. plana is highly tolerant to interspecific competition, especially with grasses exhibiting a similar growth habit. Under water stress, it responds faster by increasing its root system by 66% more than native grass. Moreover, antioxidant system activity increases, and the species recovers quickly through osmolyte production. In non‐invaded fields, avoiding soil disturbance and intensive grazing are key strategies to preserving Biome Pampa. Nonetheless, in fields where the invasion has already occurred, grazing must be maintained, cattle quarantined practiced, along with strategies that reduce cover and prevent the spread of E. plana. Liming and fertilising native grasslands improve their potential to compete with E. plana. The wiper applicator, a device that allows glyphosate herbicide application selectively to E. plana, is an important component of the integrated weed management system, especially with very severe infestations. Establishing strategies to contain or manage E. plana should be a priority to preserve the biodiversity of the Pampa. In the future, innovative options could also help prevent new invasions.
How does gratitude relate to nurses' job satisfaction? The mediating role of resilience and stress

Published: February 2024

AbstractBackgroundNurse job satisfaction is a critical area of study with far‐reaching implications for healthcare organizations, patient care, and the retention of nursing staff.AimsThis study aimed to investigate the association of gratitude with job satisfaction among Chinese nurses and examine the potential mediating roles of resilience and stress in this relationship.MethodsTwo separate studies were conducted to examine our research hypotheses. In Study 1, a total of 460 nurses completed the questionnaire related to gratitude, resilience, stress, and job satisfaction. A validation study was conducted in Study 2, which consisted of 709 nurses who also completed the same measures of gratitude, resilience, and stress to ensure the repeatability of the Study 1 results. Furthermore, a different scale was used to measure nurses' job satisfaction.ResultsThe two studies consistently found that both resilience and stress mediated gratitude–job satisfaction independently among Chinese nurses. Furthermore, resilience was found to be a significantly stronger mediator than stress in the association of gratitude with job satisfaction. Finally, we found that gratitude predicted nurses' job satisfaction via the serial mediating effects of resilience and stress.ConclusionThese findings highlight the complex interplay between gratitude, resilience, stress, and job satisfaction by demonstrating that resilience and stress act as parallel and sequential mediators between nurses' gratitude and job satisfaction. The healthcare sector can improve nurses' job satisfaction by increasing gratitude, building resilience, and reducing feelings of stress.Linking Evidence to ActionNurse managers have the potential to enhance job satisfaction among nurses by implementing measures that increase gratitude, build resilience, and reduce stress levels.
Identification of the Aeromechanical Parameters of a Compressor Rotor from Blade Tip Timing Data
Authors: Hall Kenneth C. , Hall Steven R. 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
This article presents a maximum likelihood approach to identifying the mistuning, aerodynamic forcing functions, and aerodynamic influence coefficients of compressor rotor blades from noisy experimental measurements of blade deflection. The maximum likelihood estimation approach leads naturally to a nonlinear least squares optimization problem that can be solved using numerical optimization techniques such as quasi-Newton methods. An eigenmode decomposition approach is presented that permits the optimization objective function and gradient to be efficiently calculated so that the optimization is computationally feasible, even for experiments involving very large data sets. Simulation results show that the method has the potential to accurately identify the mistuning and aerodynamic nodal diameter forcing functions, but obtaining accurate results for influence coefficients may not be possible if there is significant disk flexibility. We demonstrate the method using both simulated and experimental blade vibration data from rotor 2 of the Purdue University three-stage axial compressor research facility collected using a light probe tip timing system as the rotor is slowly accelerated or decelerated through a Campbell diagram crossing.
