Authors: Tepes-Onea F , Janczak N 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
In the present paper, the design of a steel warehouse structure was investigated. After establishing the base sections for the beams and columns through the design for ultimate resistance and buckling strength, an optimization procedure was applied to the beam-to-column connection. Three types of connections were studied: a bolted connection with end plate, a welded connection and a bolted connection with web and flange angles. The detailed analysis of the components of the connections was performed with the help of the software “IdeaStatica”. The advantages and disadvantages of the three joint solutions are presented. The results were compared and the best solution was proposed in view of costs, structural performance, inspection difficulties, joint stiffness, and the installation and safety process.

Authors: Wang Z , Yin Z C , Wang Z N , Chen C M 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
Grinding robot is used in building construction to replace manual grinding of concrete components. Bearing in grinding system under high-speed conditions has friction violently with the inner and outer ring, and generates a lot of heat. This will cause thermal failure of grinding system. In order to explore the thermal characteristics of rolling bearings, a numerical analysis model based on bearing heat transfer mechanism was established to study the influence of different working conditions on bearing temperature. The results provide a reference for reducing the thermal failure of rolling bearings in grinding system of grinding robot.
Reuse of mixed masonry wastes in plastering mortars

Published: June 2023

Abstract
According to Eurostat statistics, the volume of waste collected is constantly increasing, the amount of waste produced in Europe in 2020 reaching 2151 million tons. In the European Union, the most waste-producing activity is construction and demolition, accounting for 37.1% of the total waste produced in 2020. This type of waste has a high occupancy rate. This article proposes the reuse of mixed masonry waste in the production of plaster mortars. The maximum amount of mixed masonry waste used in the experiment was 35%, partially replacing the aggregate component. The physical and mechanical characteristics that have been measured in the experimental program may be divided into two categories: characteristics of mortars in fresh state (apparent density, consistency) and in hardened state (bending strength, compressive strength and adhesion to the support layer). In order to highlight the influence of the addition of waste on the composition and on the evolution of the mechanical properties of the studied mortars, the experimental program was distributed over 3, 7 and 28 days. The results showed an increase in the mechanical strength of mortars containing mixed masonry waste compared to standard mortar. Mixed masonry waste can be a substitute for raw materials in the production of new types of plaster mortars and contributes to the reduction of the resulting waste by recycling and reuse. The experimental program will be continued with microscopic investigations using modern investigation methods, to highlight the behaviour of mortars with masonry waste, and to identify the correct proportion of waste that can be used in mortar networks so as not to affect the characteristics required by the acting norms.

Abstract
Third-generation sequencing (TGS) technologies have revolutionized genome science in the past decade. However, the long-read data produced by TGS platforms suffer from a much higher error rate than that of the previous technologies, thus complicating the downstream analysis. Several error correction tools for long-read data have been developed; these tools can be categorized into hybrid and self-correction tools. So far, these two types of tools are separately investigated, and their interplay remains understudied. Here, we integrate hybrid and self-correction methods for high-quality error correction. Our procedure leverages the inter-similarity between long-read data and high-accuracy information from short reads. We compare the performance of our method and state-of-the-art error correction tools on Escherichia coli and Arabidopsis thaliana datasets. The result shows that the integration approach outperformed the existing error correction methods and holds promise for improving the quality of downstream analyses in genomic research.
What does community do? Reconsidering community action on the Toronto Islands using assemblage theory
Authors: Stephens Lindsay 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
This paper uses assemblage theory to consider the work that community does in a residential neighborhood in Toronto, Canada. It utilizes assemblage theory and connections between assemblage, affect, and emotion to advance an understanding of how community shapes capacity and action. The analysis shows how community has been enacted on the Islands, what actions and tendencies this assemblage makes possible or likely, and what it constrains. It also contributes to understanding what assemblage analysis can do. The mechanisms by which desire is channeled toward certain kinds of actions in the assemblage include the performance of community for self-preservation, the use of history and memory in the making of the community assemblage, and the role of territoriality, identity, and belonging in community-preserving actions. The analysis also reveals processes of stasis through reification of the assemblage and its interdependence with other processes like racial capitalism. Finally, I propose possibilities for shifting the assemblage, including telling different histories, and greeting emotional intensity experimentally. Seeing community through the lens of assemblage enables us to ask different questions, which may help us build the communities we need for a more just future.
Stimulant-like subjective effects of alcohol are not related to resting-state connectivity in healthy men
Authors: Han Jiaxu , Keedy Sarah , de Wit Harriet 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
Individual differences in subjective, stimulant-like effects of alcohol are associated with the risk of developing alcohol use disorder. Specifically, individuals who experience more pronounced stimulant-like effects from alcohol are more likely to continue and escalate their usage. The neural basis for these individual differences in subjective response is not yet known. Using a within-subject design, 27 healthy male social drinkers completed three fMRI scans after ingesting a placebo, 0.4 and 0.8 g/kg alcohol, in a randomized order under double-blind conditions. Subjective stimulant effects of alcohol were assessed at regular intervals during each session. Seed-based and regional homogeneity analyses were conducted to evaluate changes in resting-state functional connectivity in relation to the stimulant effect of alcohol. Results indicated that 0.4 g/kg alcohol increased the connectivity to thalamus, and 0.8 g/kg alcohol decreased the connectivity to ventral anterior insula, primarily from the superior parietal lobule. Both doses reduced regional homogeneity in the superior parietal lobule but without an exact overlap with clusters showing connectivity changes in the seed-based analyses. The self-reported stimulant effect of alcohol was not significantly related to changes in seed-based connectivity or regional homogeneity. These findings suggest that alcohol-induced stimulation effects are not related to these indices of neural activity.

Abstract
A reverse phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method has been developed for the quantification of a typical drug Dasatinib (DST) and its related impurities in pharmaceuticals. Kinetex C18 (4.6 × 150 mm, 5 μm) column was used in the chromatographic separations, using buffer (1.36 g of KH2PO4 in 1000 mL of water, pH = 7.8; adjusted with diluted KOH solution) with solvent as acetonitrile and mode of elution as the gradient. The flow rate is 0.9 mL/min, column oven temperature as 45°C and the overall gradient run time as 65 min. The developed method was found to produce symmetric and good separation between the process-related and degradation impurities. Method optimization is achieved with photodiode array at 305 nm over the concentration range of 0.5 mg/mL and degradation studies were carried out under acidic, alkaline, oxidative, photolytic and thermal conditions to demonstrate the stability indicating capability of the method. Two major impurities were found in forced degradation studies in the HPLC analysis, the unknown, acid degradants were enriched and isolated by preparative HPLC, then characterized through high-resolution mass spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The unknown acid degradation impurity was showing Exact Mass of 521.11, molecular formula C22H25Cl2N7O2S and its chemical name as 2-(5-chloro-6-(4-(2-hydroxyethyl) piperazin-1-yl)-2-methylpyrimidin-4-ylamino)-N-(2-chloro-6-methylphenyl) thiazole-5-carboxamide. Another impurity (oxidative degradant) found as known DST N-oxide Impurity-L and its chemical name as 4-(6-((5-((2-chloro-6-methylphenyl) carbamoyl) thiazol-2-yl) amino)-2-methylpyrimidin-4-yl)-1-(2-hydroxyethyl) piperazine 1-oxide. The analytical HPLC method was further validated as per ICH guidelines.
Beaks promote rapid morphological diversification along distinct evolutionary trajectories in labrid fishes (Eupercaria: Labridae)
Authors: Evans Kory M , Larouche Olivier , Gartner Samantha M , Faucher Rose E , Dee Sylvia G , Westneat Mark W 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
The upper and lower jaws of some wrasses (Eupercaria: Labridae) possess teeth that have been coalesced into a strong durable beak that they use to graze on hard coral skeletons, hard-shelled prey, and algae, allowing many of these species to function as important ecosystem engineers in their respective marine habitats. While the ecological impact of the beak is well understood, questions remain about its evolutionary history and the effects of this innovation on the downstream patterns of morphological evolution. Here we analyze 3D cranial shape data in a phylogenetic comparative framework and use paleoclimate modeling to reconstruct the evolution of the labrid beak across 205 species. We find that wrasses evolved beaks three times independently, once within odacines and twice within parrotfishes in the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. We find an increase in the rate of shape evolution in the Scarus+Chlorurus+Hipposcarus (SCH) clade of parrotfishes likely driven by the evolution of the intramandibular joint. Paleoclimate modeling shows that the SCH clade of parrotfishes rapidly morphologically diversified during the middle Miocene. We hypothesize that possession of a beak in the SCH clade coupled with favorable environmental conditions allowed these species to rapidly morphologically diversify.
Gas and light: triggers of c-di-GMP-mediated regulation
Authors: Yu Zhaoqing , Zhang Wei , Yang He , Chou Shan-Ho , Galperin Michael Y , He Jin 
Published: June 2023

AbstractThe widespread bacterial second messenger c-di-GMP is responsible for regulating many important physiological functions such as biofilm formation, motility, cell differentiation, and virulence. The synthesis and degradation of c-di-GMP in bacterial cells depend, respectively, on diguanylate cyclases and c-di-GMP-specific phosphodiesterases. Since c-di-GMP metabolic enzymes (CMEs) are often fused to sensory domains, their activities are likely controlled by environmental signals, thereby altering cellular c-di-GMP levels and regulating bacterial adaptive behaviors. Previous studies on c-di-GMP-mediated regulation mainly focused on downstream signaling pathways, including the identification of CMEs, cellular c-di-GMP receptors, and c-di-GMP-regulated processes. The mechanisms of CME regulation by upstream signaling modules received less attention, resulting in a limited understanding of the c-di-GMP regulatory networks. We review here the diversity of sensory domains related to bacterial CME regulation. We specifically discuss those domains that are capable of sensing gaseous or light signals and the mechanisms they use for regulating cellular c-di-GMP levels. It is hoped that this review would help refine the complete c-di-GMP regulatory networks and improve our understanding of bacterial behaviors in changing environments. In practical terms, this may eventually provide a way to control c-di-GMP-mediated bacterial biofilm formation and pathogenesis in general.
Partial cutting favours northern white-cedar regeneration but does not ensure recruitment to canopy: does browsing matter?
Authors: Villemaire-Côté Olivier , Tremblay Jean-Pierre , Kenefic Laura S , Ruel Jean-Claude 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
Gap dynamics facilitate recruitment of late-successional species such as northern white-cedar (Thuja occidentalis L.). For this reason, harvests that result in partial rather than complete canopy removal have been suggested for cedar. However, success of regenerating cedar following partial harvests is uncertain, especially where there is heavy browsing by white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus Zimmerman) or snowshoe hare (Lepus americanus). Efforts to understand how partial harvests and browsing interact to affect natural regeneration of cedar have been limited. We inventoried partially harvested stands along a gradient of 1–11 years since harvest in New Brunswick, Canada, in an area where deer frequently overwinter. Cedar regeneration was negatively influenced by browsing, but positively influenced by years since harvest and sapling basal area. Cedar seedling survival was assessed over a 2-year period and found to be primarily a function of height at initial measurement, with little influence of browsing. Annual vertical gain of cedar seedlings (a surrogate for height growth) decreased with increasing years since harvest and was influenced by distance from gap edge. In gaps, vertical gain increased with distance to gap edge, while distance to gap edge had a negative influence on vertical gain of seedlings in the matrix (between-gap areas). Many tagged cedar seedlings disappeared prior to remeasurement. These were likely completely consumed by browsers, limiting our ability to determine relative influences of partial harvest and browsing on cedar regeneration. We conclude that partial harvests, as applied in this study, increase cedar abundance and vertical gain, but browsing may necessitate seedling protection. We suggest monitoring to confirm sufficient cedar regeneration in partially harvested stands, using exclosures where browsing is a concern, and retaining or at least delaying removal of seed-bearing cedar overstory trees until regeneration has reached heights safe from browsing.

Abstract

Background
ESBL-producing Escherichia coli (ESBL-Ec) is considered a key indicator for antimicrobial resistance (AMR) epidemiological surveillance in animal, human and environment compartments. There is likelihood of ESBL-Ec animal–human transmission but proof of cross-compartment transmission is still unclear.

Objectives
To characterize ESBL-Ec genetic similarity in various compartments (humans, animals and environment) from a rural area of Madagascar.

Methods
We collected ESBL-Ec isolates prospectively from humans, animals and the environment (water) between April and October 2018. These isolates were subject to WGS and analysed with cutting-edge phylogenomic methods to characterize population genetic structure and infer putative transmission events among compartments.

Results
Of the 1454 samples collected, 512 tested positive for ESBL-Ec. We successfully sequenced 510 samples, and a phylogenomic tree based on 179 365 SNPs was produced. Phylogenetic distances between and amongst compartments were indistinguishable, and 104 clusters of recent transmission events between compartments were highlighted. Amongst a large diversity of ESBL-Ec genotypes, no lineage host specificity was observed, indicating the regular occurrence of ESBL-Ec transfer among compartments in rural Madagascar.

Conclusions
Our findings stress the importance of using a phylogenomic approach on ESBL-Ec samples in various putative compartments to obtain a clear baseline of AMR transmissions in rural settings, where one wants to identify risk factors associated with transmission or to measure the effect of ‘One Health’ interventions in low- and middle-income countries.
“Something really very odd and singularly appropriate:” The Fashionable Swastika in the US Before 1939
Authors: Elenowitz-Hess Caroline 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
More than a decade before Hitler became the leader of the Nazi party, on the other side of the Atlantic, the Ladies’ Home Journal hit on the perfect insignia for their new “Girl’s Club”: a swastika. This was far from anomalous; an examination of American fashion and lifestyle publications shows that the swastika was a fashionable motif for dress, home decor, and particularly jewelry from the turn of the twentieth century until the outbreak of World War II. Moreover, the swastika continued to be used as a decorative motif even as news of life under the Third Reich was published in American newspapers. This regular use in fashion and consumer goods suggests that Americans did not want to recognize the dissonance between the way that they wore the swastika and the symbol in its German context. This distinction began to disintegrate in the mid-1930s, as conflict over the use of the symbol revealed fracture lines between those affected by its anti-Semitic connotations and those who thought that these connotations were either acceptable or easy enough to ignore. The lifecycle of the swastika in American culture in the first four decades of the twentieth century offers a unique case study of how a sign can gain and lose meaning; after arising as a seemingly superficial fad, the persistence of the motif took on increasingly problematic associations raising difficult questions of how to contend with new readings of old signs.
Quantum chemical mechanism on the depletion of C3O by oxygen atoms: barrierless to produce CO
Authors: Wang Xue , Lu Rui-qi , Ma Fang-fang , Ding Yi-hong , Xie Hong-bin , Tian Xiao 
Published: June 2023

ABSTRACT
Accurate quantum chemical studies at the CCSD(T)/CBS//CCSD/cc-pVTZ level predicted the depletion reaction of C3O by both singlet and triplet O-atoms to be barrierless, leading to the astrophysically very abundant CO plus triplet CCO. The barrierless nature of the reaction fully complied with the long conjecture, whereas the product differed significantly. Our kinetic calculations indicated that the reaction possesses significant negative temperature effect below 30 K. The calculations should be useful for understanding the astrophysical recycling for both the carbon and oxygen species.

Authors: Song Fang , Nakatani Hisae , Sugiyama Eiji , Hirata Shintaro 
Published: June 2023

ABSTRACT

Objective
The objective of the study was to develop a nursing practice scale for rheumatoid arthritis treatment with biological disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs.

Methods
An anonymous self-administered questionnaire survey was administered to 1826 nurses, 960 of whom were Certified Nurses by Japan Rheumatism Foundation (CNJRFs) and 866 were registered nurses (RNs). Using exploratory factor analysis, criterion validity, and known-groups technique, we assessed the reliability and validity of the self-created 19-item nursing practice scale to evaluate the care provided to patients with rheumatoid arthritis receiving biological disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs based on the nurse’s role as clarified from a literature review of relevant studies.

Results
A total of 698 (38.4%) responses were collected from 407 CNJRFs and 291 RNs. Exploratory factor analysis was conducted on 18 items to examine three factors: ‘nursing to enhance patients’ capacity for self-care’, ‘nursing in which patients participate in decision-making’, and ‘nursing in which team medical care is promoted’. Cronbach’s α was .95. The Spearman’s coefficient was ρ = .738 for criterion validity. Using the known-groups technique, CNJRFs had higher total scale scores than RNs (P &lt; .05).

Conclusions
The results confirmed the reliability, criterion validity, and construct validity of the scale.

Published: June 2023

Abstract
Food literacy has emerged as a key individual trait to promote the transformation of food systems toward healthy and sustainable diets. Childhood and adolescence are key periods for establishing the foundations of eating habits. Different food literacy competencies are acquired as children develop different cognitive abilities, skills, and experiences, contributing to the development of critical tools that allow them to navigate a complex food system. Thus, the design and implementation of programs to support the development of food literacy from early childhood can contribute to healthier and more sustainable eating habits. In this context, the aim of the present narrative review is to provide an in-depth description of how different food literacy competencies are developed in childhood and adolescence, integrating the extensive body of evidence on cognitive, social, and food-related development. Implications for the development of multisectoral strategies to target the multidimensional nature of food literacy and promote the development of the 3 types of competencies (relational, functional, and critical) are discussed.
