Informatics for your Gut: at the Interface of Nutrition, the Microbiome, and Technology
Authors: Cooper Kate , Clarke Martina , Clayton Jonathan B. 
Published: July 2023

Background: A significant portion of individuals in the United States and worldwide experience diseases related to or driven by diet. As research surrounding user-centered design and the microbiome grows, movement of the spectrum of translational science from bench to bedside for improvement of human health through nutrition becomes more accessible. In this literature survey, we examined recent literature examining informatics research at the interface of nutrition and the microbiome.
Objectives: The objective of this survey was to synthesize recent literature describing how technology is being applied to understand health at the interface of nutrition and the microbiome focusing on the perspective of the consumer.
Methods: A survey of the literature published between January 1, 2021 and October 10, 2022 was performed using the PubMed database and resulting literature was evaluated against inclusion and exclusion criteria.
Results: A total of 139 papers were retrieved and evaluated against inclusion and exclusion criteria. After evaluation, 45 papers were reviewed in depth revealing four major themes: (1) microbiome and diet, (2) usability,(3) reproducibility and rigor, and (4) precision medicine and precision nutrition.
Conclusions: A review of the relationships between current literature on technology, nutrition and the microbiome, and self-management of dietary patterns was performed. Major themes that emerged from this survey revealed exciting new horizons for consumer management of diet and disease, as well as progress towards elucidating the relationship between diet, the microbiome, and health outcomes. The survey revealed continuing interest in the study of diet-related disease and the microbiome and acknowledgement of needs for data re-use, sharing, and unbiased and rigorous measurement of the microbiome. The literature also showed trends toward enhancing the usability of digital interventions to support consumer health and home management, and consensus building around how precision medicine and precision nutrition may be applied in the future to improve human health outcomes and prevent diet-related disease.

Published: July 2023

AbstractThe Philadelphia chromosome is seen in 5% of pediatric and 25 to 50% of adult cases of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). It is linked to aggressive illness with a dismal prognosis. Additional chromosomal abnormalities are not prevalent with translocation 9;22; nevertheless, isochromosome derivative [ider(22)] with this translocation is rarely recorded in the literature. This is the third instance of ider(22) in pediatric B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). Bone marrow chromosome analysis by G-banding showed 46,XX,t(9;22)(q34;q11.2)[6]/46,XX,ider(22)(q10)t(9;22)(q34;q11.2)[14]. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis for BCR::ABL1 fusion showed 40% of interphase cells with two and 35% with three fusion signals that were in concordance with the karyotype. The patient was categorized as National Cancer Institute (NCI) high-risk (HR) and started with HR chemotherapy according to Children's Oncology Group (COG) protocol. Postinduction remission assessment by flow cytometry showed 2.6% measurable residual disease. The case highlights significance of cytogenetic analysis despite availability of advanced techniques like FISH. The prognostic significance of concurrent ider22(q10) with t(9;22) is yet to be explored.
Thoracolumbar Intervertebral Disk Extrusion in Dogs: Do Onset of Clinical Signs, Time of Surgery, and Neurological Grade Matter?

Published: July 2023

Abstract
Objective The aim of this study was to determine the influence of time between the beginning of clinical signs, presentation and decompression, and combinations of several factors on the outcome and recovery of dogs undergoing surgery for thoracolumbar intervertebral disk extrusion (IVDE).
Study Design In all, 433 client-owned dogs treated for IVDE between 2016 and 2020 were reviewed for signalment, neurological grade, rate of onset, duration of clinical signs, and surgical variables. Time from presentation to surgery was divided into three categories: S1 (0–12 hours), S2 (12–24 hours), and S3 (>24 hours). These variables were investigated to determine their influence on the return of pain sensation, urinary continence, ambulation and overall outcome.
Results A significant association was found between an acute onset of clinical signs, worse neurological grade at presentation and poorer outcomes. There was a significant difference between S1, S2, and S3 in neurological grade at presentation (p < 0.001) and at discharge (p < 0.001); however, the latter was no longer significant when adjusted for the grade at presentation (p = 1,000). Disk fenestration was associated with a faster return to ambulation (p = 0.033). Duration of clinical signs and time of surgery did not correlate with the time to recovery and return of pain sensation, urinary continence, or ambulation.
Conclusion Dogs presented with severe neurological status and/or rapid onset of clinical signs were operated on more promptly, but their outcomes were also poorer. There was no significant evidence for a better outcome when surgery was not delayed.
Coping with a crisis: business interest group coalitions in the wake of the financial crisis
Authors: Gatto Laura 
Published: July 2023

AbstractThe global financial crisis resulted in a re-examination of the business sector as a whole and its lobbying activity. Nevertheless, research has not analysed the impact that the global financial crisis had on the coalitions within the business interest group community. This article describes in detail how coalitions within the business interest group community have emerged in the aftermath of the global financial crisis. I focus my attention on the Swiss case because of the importance of its financial sector as well as its neo-corporatist system. The empirical approach consists of a process tracing on three policy areas: financial regulation, tax policy and corporate governance, which is elaborated through an extensive document analysis and 28 in-depth interviews. The advocacy coalition framework is used to analyse business interest groups’ beliefs. The findings suggest that different beliefs materialise, especially in the field of financial regulation and partially in tax policy.
Ultralow lattice thermal conductivities and excellent thermoelectric properties of hypervalent triiodides XI3 (X = Rb, Cs) discovered by machine learning method

Published: July 2023

Thermal conductivity and power factor are key factors in evaluating heat transfer performance and designing thermoelectric conversion devices. To search for materials with ultralow thermal conductivity and a high power factor, we proposed a set of universal statistical interaction descriptors (SIDs) and developed accurate machine learning models for the prediction of thermoelectric properties. For lattice thermal conductivity prediction, the SID-based model achieved the state-of-the-art results with an average absolute error of 1.76 W m−1 K−1. The well-performing models predicted that hypervalent triiodides XI3 (X = Rb, Cs) have ultralow thermal conductivities and high power factors. Combining first-principles calculations, the self-consistent phonon theory, and the Boltzmann transport equation, we obtained the anharmonic lattice thermal conductivities of 0.10 and 0.13 W m−1 K−1 for CsI3 and RbI3 in the c-axis direction at 300 K, respectively. Further studies show that the ultralow thermal conductivity of XI3 arises from the competition of vibrations between alkali metal atoms and halogen atoms. In addition, at 700 K, the thermoelectric figure of merit ZT values of CsI3 and RbI3 are 4.10 and 1.52, respectively, at the optimal hole doping level, which indicates hypervalent triiodides are potential high performance thermoelectric materials.
Dynamic nuclear polarization by two-pulse phase modulation
Authors: Redrouthu Venkata SubbaRao , Vinod-Kumar Sanjay , Mathies Guinevere 
Published: July 2023

The coherent transfer of electron spin polarization to nuclei by means of a microwave pulse sequence is a promising new approach to enhancing the sensitivity of solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The development of pulse sequences for dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) of bulk nuclei is far from complete, as is the understanding of what makes a good DNP sequence. In this context, we introduce a new sequence, termed Two-Pulse Phase Modulation (TPPM) DNP. We provide a general theoretical description for electron–proton polarization transfer by periodic DNP pulse sequences and find it in excellent agreement with numerical simulations. In experiments at 1.2 T, TPPM DNP generates a higher gain in sensitivity than existing sequences XiX (X-inverse-X) and TOP (Time-Optimized Pulsed) DNP but does so at relatively high nutation frequencies. In contrast, we find that the XiX sequence performs very well at nutation frequencies as low as 7 MHz. A combination of theoretical analysis and experimental investigation makes clear that fast electron–proton polarization transfer, due to a well-preserved dipolar coupling in the effective Hamiltonian, correlates with a short build-up time of the dynamic nuclear polarization of the bulk. Experiments further show that the performances of XiX and TOP DNP are affected differently by the concentration of the polarizing agent. These results constitute important reference points for the development of new and better DNP sequences.
Defending the last bastion
Authors: Hongtao Wang 
Published: July 2023

AbstractGrowing interest has been noted in applying AI-powered machine translation (MT) to literary translation, hailed as the last bastion of human translation. Despite achieving considerable progress in this field, research has either ignored or underestimated the particularity, complexity, and cultural significance of literary translation, which can be examined from a sociological approach. Drawing on the sociological theories of Bourdieu, Latour, Callon, and Baudrillard, the present paper analyses the innate nature of literary translation and highlights three fundamental issues that need to be addressed in applying MT to literary texts. First, the poetics of literary translation is built on human translators’ long-acquired habitus, thus, in the case of MT, an algorithm comparable to the creative human habitus must be derived if MT aspires to take on the role of the human translator. Second, literary translation constitutes a dynamic network connected by various human and non-human actors, thus the aspects not included in the interlingual transference of MT should be compensated through more effective interactions between the machine and other actors. Third, the cultural-ethical issues related to MT should be thoroughly examined because the present MT of literary texts is a machine simulation of the psychological human translation, which undermines both the meaning generation of literary translation and the knowledge accumulation of cultural production. Therefore, literary translation must be handled by qualified human translators until we can undoubtedly ensure that MT can be effectively and safely applied to literary texts.
The detriment that error production creates is affected by non-L1 speakers’ linguistic group membership
Authors: Kirjavainen Minna , Howie Grant , Rudge Luke A. , Nicholson Lucy 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
We present three studies that investigate the effect of group-level language ability expectations on language
ability judgements. Study 1 identifies expected English-language ability levels that native English speakers’ have for a number of
non-native English-speaker groups. Based on the results, two text-based written-guise studies were conducted investigating the
level of detriment that grammatical and lexical/typographical errors created on English-language ability ratings for different
author guises (Swedish, Chinese, English) in formal (Study 2) and informal contexts (Study 3). In both contexts, grammatical
errors produced by the guise representing the lower-ability non-L1 group were overlooked, while the same errors produced by the
other guises significantly lowered the ability ratings. Our results coincide with the idea of the ‘sympathetic native speaker’ and
expand it, suggesting that expected language level based on linguistic group membership inversely affects the level of
sympathy/tolerance demonstrated. We link this to possible pedagogical implications.
Pragmatic functions of humor in Berlin’s directive Covid-19 Signs
Authors: Vallentin Rita Tamara 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
This paper deals with the pragmatic functions of verbal and visual humor in Covid-19 related directive signs. Within the framework of material and social semiotics, I analyze humorous directive signs from the Berlin district Friedrichshain communicating hygiene rules and proper social behavior during the re- opening phase of local businesses after the first lockdown in 2020. The interplay of multilingual, graphic and intertextual features in the signs reveals two pragmatic functions: On the one hand, they express hygienic measures; on the other hand, the signs do relational work and foster community-building aimed at both general and very specific audiences. This is done by drawing humorously on community-specific intertextuality requiring cultural literacies based on community-specific knowledge. The signs are, thus, not limited to mere instructions for action addressed to a general audience, but are designed for specific groups of addressees thereby showing the socially and spatially fragmented diversity of Berlin’s public sphere.

Authors: Gope Rahul , Mondol Sukla , Ganguly Sourav , Mandal Animesh 
Published: July 2023

In the present investigation, the microstructure and tensile properties of Al–12Ce, Al–12Ce–4Si, and Al–12Ce–4Si–0.4Mg alloys (wt-%), fabricated by suction-casting (SC) and gravity-casting (GC) were compared. The SC alloys exhibited finer grains and a higher number of precipitates than the GC alloys. Addition of Si and Mg in Al–12Ce alloy improved the hardness substantially. Incorporation of 4Si and 0.4Mg enhanced the yield and tensile stress but reduced ductility in the SC alloys. The SC Al-12Ce-4Si-0.4Mg alloy illustrated the best hardness and tensile strength. The fracture behaviour of the SC Al–12Ce alloy changed from quasi-cleavage to complete cleavage fracture following the addition of 4Si and 0.4Mg.

Published: July 2023

Abstract
The structural, mechanical, lattice-dynamic, anisotropic, electronic and thermal properties of M2SX (M=Sc, Y; X=B, C, N) are investigated based on density functional theory. The calculated results indicate that all the phases satisfy the thermodynamic, mechanical and dynamic stability criteria. The mechanical properties are in good agreement with the reported values, and the results show that Sc2SN exhibits the highest bulk modulus B (145.7 GPa), shear modulus (103.0 GPa) and Young’s modulus E (250.0 GPa) with brittle behavior. The elastic anisotropy of M2SX indicates that Sc2SC is the most isotropic among the 6 phases. The electronic structure reveals that Sc2SC and Y2SC are indirect-bandgap semiconductors with 0.927 eV and 1.260 eV bandgap, and the other phases exhibit metallic characteristics. The Debye temperature, lattice thermal conductivity, minimum thermal conductivity, heat capacity and entropy have also been calculated for M2SX phases. The tendency for lattice thermal conductivity in high temperature: K

(M2SB). All the present calculated data will provide useful guidance for development and research on the novel S-based MAX phases in the future.

Published: July 2023

Abstract
The article determines the influence of pulse duration, energy density and focusing parameters on the process of formation of a weld of transparent dielectrics. A comparative analysis of laser welding of borosilicate and quartz glass with different pulse durations and energies of picosecond and femtosecond fiber lasers was carried out. Basic regularities of weld shape change depending on pulse duration and energy are obtained. The combination of physical parameters of laser radiation and focusing allows welding along gaps up to 6 μm.

Abstract
In this paper, we report a real-time Fast Radio Burst (FRB) searching system that has been successfully implemented with the 19 beam receiver of the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST). The relatively small field of view of FAST makes the search for new FRBs challenging, but its high sensitivity significantly improves the accuracy of FRB localization and enables the detection of high-precision neutral hydrogen absorption lines generated by FRBs. Our goal is to develop an FRB searching system capable of real-time detection of FRBs that allows high-time resolution spectro-temporal studies among the repeated bursts, as well as detailed investigations of these bursts and exploration of FRB progenitor models. The data from each beam of the 19-beam receiver are fed into a high-performance computing node server, which performs real-time searches for pulses with a wide dispersion measure (DM) range of 20–10,000 pc cm−3 with step efficiency of 25% in real time. Then, the head node server aggregates all the candidate signals from each beam within a given time, determining their authenticity based on various criteria, including arrival time, pulse width, signal-to-noise ratio and coincidence patterns among the 19 beams. Within the 1.05–1.45 GHz operating bandwidth of the FAST 19 beam receiver, the system achieves a frequency resolution of 122.07 kHz and a time resolution of 270.336 μs. Subsequently, our team detected a series of bursts with a DM of 566 on 2019 August 30 confirming them as FRB 121102. The FRB searching system enables the 19-beam receiver of FAST to detect repeated/one-off pulses/bursts in real time.
Breaking of Large-Scale Filament due to Magnetic Reconnection and Consequent Partial Eruption
Authors: Kang Kaifeng , Guo Yang , Li Yan , Wang Jingxing , Lin Jun 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
Following our previous work, we studied the partial eruption of a large-scale horse-shoe-like filament that had been observed in a decaying active region on the solar disk for more than 4.5 days. The filament became active after it was broken into two pieces, P1 and P2 seen in Hα, by magnetic reconnection between the magnetic field around it and that of a newly emerging active region nearby. P1 eventually erupted 13 hr after the breaking and escaped from the Sun, developing to a fast coronal mass ejection, and P2 stayed. But the mass in P1 falling down to P2 in the eruption suggests that the global magnetic fields over P1 and P2 were still connected to each other prior to the eruption. The reconnection process breaking the filament occurred outside the filament, and P1 and P2 were located almost at the same altitude, so the fashion of the filament partial eruption studied here differs from that of the “double-decker model” and that of reconnection inside the filament. Analyzing the decay indices of the background fields above P1 and P2, n
1 and n
2, showed that the altitude where n
1 exceeds the critical value of n

c
= 1.5 for the loss of equilibrium or the torus instability is lower than that where n
2 > n

c
, and that n
1 > n
2 always holds at all altitudes. Combining this fact with that the eruption occurred 13 hr after filament was broken by reconnection, we conclude that the eruption of P1 was triggered by the loss of equilibrium or the torus instability in the configuration, and magnetic reconnection breaking the filament helped weaken the confinement of the background field on P1, allowing P1 to erupt. Detailed features of the eruption and the corresponding physical scenario were also discussed.
Multi-scale multi-physics model of brain interstitial water flux by transcranial Direct Current Stimulation
Authors: Khadka Niranjan , Poon Cynthia , Cancel Limary M , Tarbell John M , Bikson Marom 
Published: July 2023

Abstract

Objective. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) generates sustained electric fields in the brain, that may be amplified when crossing capillary walls (across blood-brain barrier, BBB). Electric fields across the BBB may generate fluid flow by electroosmosis. We consider that tDCS may thus enhance interstitial fluid flow. Approach. We developed a modeling pipeline novel in both (1) spanning the mm (head), μm (capillary network), and then nm (down to BBB tight junction (TJ)) scales; and (2) coupling electric current flow to fluid current flow across these scales. Electroosmotic coupling was parametrized based on prior measures of fluid flow across isolated BBB layers. Electric field amplification across the BBB in a realistic capillary network was converted to volumetric fluid exchange. Main results. The ultrastructure of the BBB results in peak electric fields (per mA of applied current) of 32–63

interstitial water exchange (per mA). Significance. Using this pipeline, the fluid exchange rate per each brain voxel can be predicted for any tDCS dose (electrode montage, current) or anatomy. Under experimentally constrained tissue properties, we predicted tDCS produces a fluid exchange rate comparable to endogenous flow, so doubling fluid exchange with further local flow rate hot spots (‘jets’). The validation and implication of such tDCS brain ‘flushing’ is important to establish.
