SummaryVerticillium dahliae, one of the most destructive fungal pathogens of several crops, challenges the sustainability of cotton productivity worldwide because very few widely‐cultivated Upland cotton varieties are resistant to Verticillium wilt (VW). Here, we report that REVEILLE2 (RVE2), the Myb‐like transcription factor, confers the novel function in resistance to VW by regulating the jasmonic acid (JA) pathway in cotton. RVE2 expression was essentially required for the activation of JA‐mediated disease‐resistance response. RVE2 physically interacted with TPL/TPRs and disturbed JAZ proteins to recruit TPL and TPR1 in NINJA‐dependent manner, which regulated JA response by relieving inhibited‐MYC2 activity. The MYC2 then bound to RVE2 promoter for the activation of its transcription, forming feedback loop. Interestingly, a unique truncated RVE2 widely existing in D‐subgenome (GhRVE2D) of natural Upland cotton represses the ability of the MYC2 to activate GhRVE2A promoter but not GausRVE2 or GbRVE2. The result could partially explain why Gossypium barbadense popularly shows higher resistance than Gossypium hirsutum. Furthermore, disturbing the JA‐signalling pathway resulted into the loss of RVE2‐mediated disease‐resistance in various plants (Arabidopsis, tobacco and cotton). RVE2 overexpression significantly enhanced the resistance to VW. Collectively, we conclude that RVE2, a new regulatory factor, plays a pivotal role in fine‐tuning JA‐signalling, which would improve our understanding the mechanisms underlying the resistance to VW.

AbstractClimate change exacerbates abiotic stresses like salinization, negatively impacting crop yield, so development of strategies, like using salt‐tolerant rootstocks, is crucial. The CALCINEURIN B‐LIKE 10 (SlCBL10) gene has been previously identified as a positive regulator of salt tolerance in the tomato shoot. Here, we report a different function of SlCBL10 in tomato shoot and root, as disruption of SlCBL10 only induced salt sensitivity when it was used in the scion but not in the rootstock. The use of SlCBL10 silencing rootstocks (Slcbl10 mutant and RNAi line) improved salt tolerance on the basis of fruit yield. These changes were associated with improved Na+ and K+ homoeostasis, as SlCBL10 silencing reduced the Na+ content and increased the K+ content under salinity, not only in the rootstock but also in the shoot. Improvement of Na+ homoeostasis in Slcbl10 rootstock seems to be mainly due to induction of SlSOS1 expression, while the higher K+ accumulation in roots seems to be mainly determined by expression of LKT1 transporter and SlSKOR channel. These findings demonstrate that SlCBL10 is a negative regulator of salt tolerance in the root, so the use of downregulated SlCBL10 rootstocks may provide a suitable strategy to increase tomato fruit production under salinity.
UV‐B responses in the spotlight: Dynamic photoreceptor interplay and cell‐type specificity
Authors: Depaepe Thomas , Vanhaelewyn Lucas , Van Der Straeten Dominique 
Published: August 2023

AbstractPlants are constantly exposed to a multitude of external signals, including light. The information contained within the full spectrum of light is perceived by a battery of photoreceptors, each with specific and shared signalling outputs. Recently, it has become clear that UV‐B radiation is a vital component of the electromagnetic spectrum, guiding growth and being crucial for plant fitness. However, given the large overlap between UV‐B specific signalling pathways and other photoreceptors, understanding how plants can distinguish UV‐B specific signals from other light components deserves more scrutiny. With recent evidence, we propose that UV‐B signalling and other light signalling pathways occur within distinct tissues and cell‐types and that the contribution of each pathway depends on the type of response and the developmental stage of the plant. Elucidating the precise site(s) of action of each molecular player within these signalling pathways is key to fully understand how plants are able to orchestrate coordinated responses to light within the whole plant body. Focusing our efforts on the molecular study of light signal interactions to understand plant growth in natural environments in a cell‐type specific manner will be a next step in the field of photobiology.
Wald's leadership: Public health nurses’ response to the 1918 influenza pandemic
Authors: Wanyo Carol A. 
Published: August 2023

AbstractCOVID‐19 pandemic brings to light similarities to the 1918 influenza pandemic, one of the deadliest outbreaks in United States history. The work of the Henry Street Visiting Nurse Service also referred to the public health nurses for that time, was a critical part of the New York City response. This case study examined Lillian Wald's leadership in directing the public health nursing response in New York City during the second wave of the influenza pandemic, from September through December of 1918. A historical social framework was used. Primary sources included the Lillian Wald Papers in the Rare Book and Manuscript Library, Columbia University in New York, Wald's (1934) Windows on Henry Street, medical, public health and nursing documents, journals, and newspaper articles published during the early 20th century. Secondary source material include works by historians Sarah Abrams, Arlene Keeling, Karen Buhler‐Wilkerson, Sandra Lewenson, John Barry, and Alfred Crosby. Key findings included developing a community wide strategic plan, using data driven decisions, implementing visiting nursing services, teaching in the home, and maintaining a diverse workforce. Lessons learned can guide leadership in emergency planning, system change, infection control and disease prevention, all familiar practices of public health nursing.
Lobbying responsiveness to congressional policy agendas
Authors: Fagan E. J. , Furnas Alexander C. 
Published: August 2023

AbstractWe examine the strategic use of contract and in‐house lobbyists by interest groups in response to shifting policy agendas. The role that lobbyists play in the policy process changes based on the policy agenda. Most of the time, subsystems manage small changes to public policy, rewarding actors with long‐term relationships. Organizations with a deep interest in the issue area maintain permanent lobbying presences, earning some degree of privilege over policymaking. However, when the broader macropolitical agenda lurches toward the issue, new participants become involved. New participants often lack the lobbying expertise of the in‐house lobbyists of established actors. Contract lobbyists play a critical role in providing spare capacity on‐demand, allowing participants not normally involved in subsystems to lobby. They also allow the best‐resourced actors, who may employ a long‐term lobbying presence, to further expand it when necessary. We test this theory using a new dataset of the lobbying content of 1,370,396 bill mentions in U.S. lobbying disclosure reports by 11,842 organizations from 2006 to 2016. We compare their policy agenda to that of the U.S. Congress. We find strong evidence that organizations hire contract lobbyists to respond to brief moments of agenda setting while permanent in‐house lobbyists have a more stable agenda.
A Riemann–Hilbert approach to computing the inverse spectral map for measures supported on disjoint intervals
Authors: Ballew Cade , Trogdon Thomas 
Published: August 2023

AbstractWe develop a numerical method for computing with orthogonal polynomials that are orthogonal on multiple, disjoint intervals for which analytical formulae are currently unknown. Our approach exploits the Fokas–Its–Kitaev Riemann–Hilbert representation of the orthogonal polynomials to produce an method to compute the firstNrecurrence coefficients. The method can also be used for pointwise evaluation of the polynomials and their Cauchy transforms throughout the complex plane. The method encodes the singularity behavior of weight functions using weighted Cauchy integrals of Chebyshev polynomials. This greatly improves the efficiency of the method, outperforming other available techniques. We demonstrate the fast convergence of our method and present applications to integrable systems and approximation theory.
Insights on the uplift mechanism of the eastern Tibetan Plateau from the flexural isostasy study
Authors: Shi Wen , Chen Shi , Zhang Huai , Zhang Zhen , Han Jiancheng 
Published: August 2023

AbstractIt is generally believed that the rapid uplift of the eastern Tibetan Plateau is due to the continuous continental collision between the Indian and Eurasian plates. But the uplift mechanisms of the eastern Tibetan Plateau remain uncertain. The analysis of flexural isostasy can provide new insights into those uplifting mechanisms. In this study, the effective elastic thickness () and load ratio () of the lithosphere are estimated around the eastern Tibetan Plateau. The derived and are used to compute flexural isostatic anomalies (FIA) using the theoretical Bouguer admittance method. We find the eastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau is dominated by low , high , and significant negative FIA. Our results suggest that this area has a weak lithosphere with heavy subsurface loadings and crustal mass surpluses. This supports that a middle‐lower crustal channel flow probably underlies this region.

Published: August 2023

AbstractHow atmospheric pollution is perceived by urban dwellers has long been a topic of interest within geography and the social sciences, whether to draw attention to environmental injustices, to better understand the materialities and affects associated with polluted air, or to grasp how people ‘tune in’ to polluted matter. In this paper, we draw on three interrelated geographical and social science literatures on polluted air to inform our exploration of how residents of an industrial town in the UK encounter and perceive localised ambient air pollution. Using creative methods, we explore residents' narrative accounts of everyday life in the town, revealing how their engagements with the matter of pollution over time are drawn from multiple registers, giving rise to a plurality of perceptions filled with tensions between near and far, and between past, present and future, producing an ambiguous atmosphere all of its own. The paper contributes to geographic explorations of urban atmospheres an understanding of how they are differently experienced and known, and how residential perceptions might persist or change over different timescales.

Published: August 2023

AbstractThe Yellow River Delta (YRD) is an important agricultural and industrial region in China, yet its water resources have been increasingly affected by shortages and pollution due to human activities and the impact of climate change. This has resulted in severe damage to the water ecosystem in the YRD, thereby necessitating the adoption of effective legal measures to safeguard these resources. This paper provides a comprehensive review of recent research findings on water resources and water ecology in the YRD. Specifically, it summarizes the changes and characteristics of the geographical distribution, quantity and quality of water resources in the region and analyzes the effects of climate change, economic development and population growth on water resources. In light of the vulnerability and risks to the water resources and ecosystems in this area, this paper evaluates the impact of human activities on regional water security and proposes strategies for the sustainable utilization of water resources and the protection of public health. The insights and measures presented in this paper provide valuable guidance and references for water resource management and environmental protection in the YRD.

Published: August 2023

Objective:
The objective of this review is to examine the association between proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and neurological and/or psychiatric disorders in adults.

Introduction:
The association between PPIs and neurological and/or psychiatric disorders remains unclear, despite the widespread use of the medicine. A systematic review is required to investigate the risk of developing neurological and/or psychiatric disorders following the use of PPIs.

Inclusion criteria:
Studies including participants aged ≥18 years and using any PPIs, including those with comorbid conditions or using other medications, will be considered for inclusion. Randomized controlled trials, quasi-experimental studies, and observational studies examining the association of neurological and/or psychiatric disorders with the use of PPIs among adults will be included.

Methods:
MEDLINE, Embase, PsycINFO, CINAHL, and Cochrane CENTRAL databases will be searched from inception till the present. Two authors will independently screen and review the titles, abstracts, and full texts. The methodological quality of included studies will be assessed using the JBI critical appraisal checklists. Study characteristics, populations, type and duration of PPI usage, status of existing neurological and/or psychiatric disorders, comorbidity conditions, use of other medications, identification of neurological and/or psychiatric disorders (International Classification of Diseases codes vs others), and estimation of the associated neurological and/or psychiatric disorders will be extracted. Studies will be pooled using statistical meta-analysis where available; otherwise, the findings will be presented in narrative format. The Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) approach for grading the certainty of evidence will be followed.

ATP modulates the activity of the voltage‐gated proton channel through direct binding interaction
Authors: Kawanabe Akira , Takeshita Kohei , Takata Maki , Fujiwara Yuichiro 
Published: August 2023

AbstractATP is an important molecule implicated in diverse biochemical processes, including the modulation of ion channel and transporter activity. The voltage‐gated proton channel (Hv1) controls proton flow through the transmembrane pathway in response to membrane potential, and various molecules regulate its activity. Although it is believed that ATP is not essential for Hv1 activity, a report has indicated that cytosolic ATP may modulate Hv1. However, the detailed molecular mechanism underlying the effect of ATP on Hv1 is unknown, and whether ATP is involved in the physiological regulation of Hv1 activity remains unclear. Here, we report that cytosolic ATP is required to maintain Hv1 activity. To gain insight into the underlying mechanism, we analysed the effects of ATP on the mouse Hv1 channel (mHv1) using electrophysiological and microscale thermophoresis (MST) methods. Intracellular ATP accelerated the activation kinetics of mHv1, thereby increasing the amplitude of the proton current within the physiological concentration range. The increase in proton current was reproduced with a non‐hydrolysable ATP analogue, indicating that ATP directly influences Hv1 activity without an enzymatic reaction. The direct molecular interaction between the purified mHv1 protein and ATP was analysed and demonstrated through MST. In addition, ATP facilitation was observed for the endogenous proton current flowing through Hv1 in the physiological concentration range of ATP. These results suggest that ATP influences Hv1 activity via direct molecular interactions and is required for the physiological function of Hv1.

We found that ATP is required to maintain the activity of voltage‐gated proton channels (Hv1) and investigated the underlying molecular mechanism.
Application of intracellular ATP increased the amplitude of the proton current flowing through Hv1, accompanied by an acceleration of activation kinetics.
The direct interaction between purified Hv1 protein and ATP was quantitatively analysed using microscale thermophoresis.

These results suggest that ATP influences Hv1 activity via direct molecular interactions and that its functional characteristics are required for the physiological activity of Hv1.
An Adaptive Decoupling Register Control Method for Roll-to-Roll Printing Systems

Published: August 2023

Abstract
Model-based decoupling control methods have been widely used in the register control of Roll-to-Roll (R2R) printing systems due to their advantage in dealing with couplings. While they achieve a certain decoupling effect, their registrations are influenced by the accuracy of the model and decoupling compensation. In this paper, a hybrid model is presented to calculate an appropriate compensation to eliminate the complex velocity-error relations in the R2R system, which consists of a general register error model and a data-based supplement model. Then, an adaptive decoupling control (ADC) method is proposed, in which the feedback gains are determined by solving a Riccati equation. The effectiveness of the hybrid model is validated by experiments, while the superior performance of the ADC is demonstrated by simulations. The results indicate that the hybrid model is more accurate than the general model and ADC method can rapidly reduce the register errors into a range of ±10 μm. In addition, simulated comparisons of ADC, direct decoupling proportional differential (DDPD), and improved DDPD control methods also show that the ADC owns the highest register precision and smoothest control signal.
Laminar Torsional Couette Flow Over a Wavy Disk
Authors: Sherikar Akshay , Disimile Peter J. , Toy Norman 
Published: August 2023

Abstract
A parametric study of laminar torsional Couette flow between a rotating flat disk and a stationary wavy disk is conducted using computer simulations. The waviness of the stationary disk, characterized by the parameter wave slope (WS), is increased across four cases to evaluate its influence. The resulting flow field is significantly different from torsional Couette flow between flat disks. Shear stress and pressure on the flat and wavy disks are sinusoidal with the same spatial frequency as the undulation. Their averages over one wavelength remain unaffected by the increase in WS. However, this is not the case with their amplitudes. A critical layer is observed approximately at a distance of 70% radius of the disk across which the effect of WS on shear amplitude is inverted. Furthermore, the sinusoidal shear on the flat disk is observed to be in destructive phase with respect to the shear on wavy disk. This is corroborated by the concave/convex distortion of the height-wise tangential velocity profile across the undulation. Alternately, the net radial velocity becomes biased either toward or away from the axis depending on angular location with respect to the undulation. The effect of increasing WS on the tangential velocity is in the form of small increments to the curvature of its height-wise profile, while the axial velocity, though it is orders of magnitude smaller than the tangential velocity, increases substantially with increase in WS.
Collegiate Athletes’ Perceptions of the Connection Between Mental Health and Sport Performance: A Qualitative Investigation

Published: August 2023

Prevalence of mental health (MH) concerns among young adults is high and continues to increase. As a specific subset of young adults, National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) athletes seem to experience these concerns at a similar or greater prevalence rate than their nonathlete, age-matched peers. Yet, how MH affects sport performance has not been robustly studied, and existing studies have not included the diversity of identities present in the collegiate athlete population. Thus, via online survey, this study explored the beliefs of 249 collegiate athletes representing diverse identities and sports regarding how MH affects sport performance. Regardless of demographic variable, 96.4%–100.0% of participants believed that MH affects sport performance. Three themes were identified: (a) collegiate athletes affirm that MH affects sport performance, (b) collegiate athletes’ perceptions of how MH affects sport performance, and (c) collegiate athletes believe that being a collegiate athlete exacerbates their MH concerns. The universality of endorsement and the themes represent novel findings that warrant further exploration of the MH–sport performance connection.
