AbstractHerein, the influence of phosphorus poisoning on the catalytic performance of Cu/SSZ‐13 zeolite catalysts for NOx emission decrease was studied. We conducted a detailed analysis of catalyst activity and N₂ selectivity in both fresh and P‐poisoned states, employing a range of advanced physicochemical characterization methods and in situ analyses. Our findings reveal a dual effect of phosphorus addition: Although it decreases the free Cu2+ species and specific surface area, leading to diminished SCR activity at low temperatures, it simultaneously reduces CuOx content, inhibiting nonselective NH3 oxidation at high temperatures and ultimately enhancing SCR activity under those conditions. These insights highlight the complex role of phosphorus in moderating catalyst behavior.
Delaying until it is definitely too late – A theoretical framework for explaining procrastination in estate planning
Authors: Tanner Michaela , Hofmann Roland , Klingsieck Katrin B. 
Published: January 2025

AbstractProcrastination in estate planning poses significant challenges in personal financial planning. Despite recognizing its importance, many individuals delay estate planning, risking unplanned estate distribution and family conflicts. This procrastination, driven by discomfort and perceived ample time, leaves legacy unstructured, failing to meet the testator's wishes and needs. Understanding procrastination in estate planning is crucial as it affects financial security for surviving dependents and the orderly transfer of assets. Procrastination research, although extensive in academic and professional contexts, has not adequately addressed estate planning, leaving a gap in comprehending this behavior within financial decision‐making. This article systematically analyzes procrastination in estate planning, presenting a theoretical framework based on the Rubicon Model and incorporating the mood‐repair hypothesis and temporal motivation theory. It outlines the estate planning process, identifying phases where procrastination occurs and the possible reasons behind it. The framework explains how negative emotions and discounted future benefits contribute to delays, impacting the timely completion of estate plans. The article highlights the role of financial advisors in helping clients navigate estate planning, offering practical recommendations to improve client engagement and ensure better financial outcomes.

Published: January 2025

ABSTRACTActin, a ubiquitous and highly conserved cytoskeletal protein, plays a pivotal role in various cellular functions such as structural support, facilitating cell motility, and contributing to the dynamic processes of synaptic function. Apart from its established role in inducing morphological changes, recent developments in the field indicate an active involvement of actin in modulating both the structure and function of pre‐ and postsynaptic terminals. Within the presynapse, it is involved in the organization and trafficking of synaptic vesicles, contributing to neurotransmitter release. In the postsynapse, actin dynamically modulates dendritic spines, influencing the postsynaptic density organization and anchoring of neurotransmitter receptors. In addition, the dynamic interplay of actin at the synapse underscores its essential role in regulating neural communication. This review strives to offer a comprehensive overview of the recent advancements in understanding the multifaceted role of the actin cytoskeleton in synaptic functions. By emphasizing its aberrant regulation, we aim to provide valuable insights into the underlying mechanisms of Alzheimer's disease pathophysiology.

Published: January 2025

ABSTRACTSchool disciplinary sanctions increase sharply during adolescence, with students from certain backgrounds disproportionately affected. Strong teacher–student relationships that cultivate trust, respect and empathy may be essential to buffer against these changes. This quasi‐experimental longitudinal field study trialled a brief empathic mindset intervention with teachers in English secondary schools and examined its effect on their students’ (N = 1347) behaviour records and perceptions of schooling. The intervention was associated with a greater sense of school belonging and a reduction in sanctions (particularly for boys), thereby signalling the importance of making students feel heard and respected.

Published: January 2025

ABSTRACTObjectivesWe aimed to compare the outcomes of patients with T1‐T2N0M0 glottic squamous cell carcinoma who underwent either partial laryngectomy (PL) or radiotherapy (RT).MethodsA retrospective analysis of 562 patients treated with RT (n = 151) or PL (n = 411) was conducted. The Kaplan–Meier method was used to estimate outcomes. The risk factors were identified using univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to adjust for baseline variations.ResultsPost‐PSM, the 5‐year overall survival (89.4% vs. 88.4%, p = 0.879), 5‐year cancer‐specific survival (91.9% vs. 90.1%, p = 0.554), and 5‐year local relapse‐free survival (87.2% vs. 89.3%, p = 0.487) rates did not differ significantly between the two groups. However, the 5‐year regional relapse‐free survival rate was significantly higher in the RT group than that in the PL group (99.3% vs. 93.3%, p = 0.009). Recurrence was most likely to occur in the lymph nodes at levels II and III. Supraglottic engagement has emerged as an independent prognostic factor for regional relapse in T2 stage diagnosed PL. The RT group demonstrated significantly superior speech function (mean: 6.065) compared to the PL group (mean: 10.650, p < 0.0001).ConclusionsRT yielded survival rates, local control, and laryngeal preservation comparable to PL. RT is associated with a higher regional control rate in T2 patients. Supraglottic involvement is an independent risk factor for regional relapse in patients with T2 disease after PL. The RT group exhibited extremely low complication rates and significantly improved speech function.

AbstractThis study aims to investigate the relationship between Parkinson's disease (PD) and colorectal cancer (CRC) risk by a systematic review and meta‐analysis. Using Embase, Pubmed, and Cochrane Library databases, 21 articles reporting clinical data of 1,635,873 PD patients and 10,388,842 healthy individuals were finally included. Based on the results of pooled analysis, we found that PD patients exhibited a decreased risk of CRC (relative risk (RR) = 0.74; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.68–0.80). In contrast to case‐control (RR = 0.80; 95% CI, 0.64–1) and cohort studies (RR = 0.72; 95% CI, 0.66–0.79), the combined risk of PD patients with CRC in Asian nations (RR = 0.67; 95% CI, 0.58–0.78) was lower than that in Western countries (RR = 0.76; 95% CI, 0.70–0.82). In comparison to rectal cancer (RR = 0.82; 95% CI, 0.69–0.97), PD patients exhibited a lower combined risk of colon cancer (RR = 0.76; 95% CI, 0.67–0.86). Furthermore, the combined CRC risks for patients in studies published before 2010 and after 2010 were 0.76 (RR = 0.76; 95% CI, 0.66–0.88) and 0.74 (RR = 0.74; 95% CI, 0.68–0.80), respectively. These findings indicate that patients with PD had a reduced risk of CRC. Future studies are merited in exploring pathological molecular linkages or underlying mechanisms of inverse association between CRC and PD.

IntroductionIntrascrotal tumors are relatively rare. Differentiating benign intrascrotal tumors from malignant tumors is frequently difficult. Here, we report a case of benign fibrous pseudotumor following puncture of a hydrocele and loss of the left testis.Case presentationA 65‐year‐old man complained of a left hydrocele and underwent scrotal puncture three times. The patient had painful enlargement of the left scrotum and was diagnosed with a malignant tumor in his scrotum based on cytological results and imaging test findings, including ultrasonography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging. The patient underwent high inguinal orchiectomy; the patient was finally diagnosed with fibrous pseudotumor.ConclusionPuncture of the scrotum may be considered a cause of fibrous pseudotumors.
Bridging attachment theory and interpersonal acceptance‐rejection theory in the strange situation procedure in a low‐risk sample in Egypt
Authors: Zaki Nour M. , Shehata Maya A. 
Published: January 2025

AbstractThis study is the first to explore the relation between children's attachment classifications, assessed by Mary Ainsworth's Strange Situation Procedure (SSP), and mothers’ acceptance‐rejection behaviors from the lens of Interpersonal Acceptance‐Rejection Theory (IPARTheory). As a pilot study, the sample consisted of 23 Egyptian mother‐child dyads. The mean age of children in the SSP was 18.6 months (SD = 3.10). Mothers’ acceptance‐rejection behaviors were explored through the Parental Acceptance‐Rejection/Control Questionnaire (PARQ/Control). The pilot study's findings revealed that maternal acceptance‐rejection behaviors significantly differed across children's attachment classifications. The findings also shed light on gender differences in parenting, as mothers tended to show a higher level of hostility/aggression, undifferentiated rejection, and control with their daughters more than sons. This study is an important stepping‐stone for attachment research in the Arab world. It highlights several cultural aspects to be taken into account for future research using the SSP in Egypt or any other Arab country.

ObjectiveThis study investigated methods of evaluating the bone fracture healing process using superb microvascular imaging (SMI; two modes color SMI [cSMI] and monochromeSMI [mSMI]), and shear wave elastography (SWE), relative to X‐ray, dual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometry (DXA), and platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule 1 (PECAM‐1) also know as cluster of differentiation 31 (CD‐31) staining in a rabbit model.MethodsThis IACUC‐approved study involved eight rabbits that underwent a bilateral fibula osteotomy and were followed for 7 or 21 days (Groups 1 and 2 with 4 rabbits in each). Ultrasound examinations using cSMI, mSMI, and SWE were performed on Days 0, 4, 7, 14, and 21 post‐surgery. At the final time point, rabbits had X‐ray imaging followed by euthanasia and DXA scan. Finally, the fracture areas underwent decalcification, and specimens were stained with CD‐31 for pathological analysis. Ultrasound and X‐ray findings were compared using ANOVAs or paired t‐tests with CD‐31 stains and DXA was used as a reference.ResultsComparing SMI ultrasound images between the last time points for Group 1 (Day 7) and Group 2 (Day 21) showed no statistical significance difference for cSMI (P = .14) and mSMI (P = .06), similarly when compared with CD‐31 stains there was no statistical significance difference for cSMI in Group 2 (P = .13). The SWE ultrasound images from the last time points in Groups 1 and showed no statistical significance difference (P = .33), the same results were then compared with DXA and also showed no statistical significance difference (P = .14). When comparing results of the X‐ray images from the last time points for Groups 1 and 2 a statistical significance difference was found (P = .01), and when X‐ray images were compared with DXA there was a statistical significance difference (P < .001).ConclusionCompared with CD‐31 stains cSMI on Day 21 was not statistically significant (P = .13). Results comparing SWE with DXA were also not statistically significant (P = .14). These results indicate the potential of using certain ultrasound imaging techniques to monitor the bone fracture healing process.

Published: January 2025

AbstractPurposeThe medial collateral ligament (MCL), and posterior oblique ligament (POL) are the primary valgus stabilisers of the knee, and clinical examinations in grading valgus instability can be inherently subjective. Stress radiography of medial‐sided knee injuries provides objective diagnosis and was analysed in this study. We hypothesised that (1) medial joint space opening would increase cutting the superficial MCL (sMCL), POL and anterior cruciate ligament (ACL); (2) isolated deep MCL (dMCL) injury would not increase medial joint space opening; (3) medial joint space opening would increase at higher flexion angles.Study DesignControlled laboratory study.MethodsTen human cadaveric knees were dissected, preserving ligamentous structures, muscles and fascia. The femur was secured, and the tibia was attached to the six‐degree‐of‐freedom robot. A 10 Nm valgus torque was applied at 0°–45° of flexion and anterior‐posterior (a.p.) radiographs were taken. Sequential sectioning was performed on the dMCL, sMCL, POL and ACL. Medial joint space opening was measured on a.p. radiographs (midpoint technique). Statistical analysis was conducted using a mixed model with post hoc correction (p < 0.05). Intra‐ and interobserver reliability was assessed by calculating the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC).ResultsMedial joint space opening significantly increased with cutting state (p < 0.0001) and flexion angle (p < 0.0001). Although isolated dMCL injury did not significantly increase medial joint space opening, sMCL resection gradually increased joint space opening 3.2 ± 1.9 to 6.9 ± 2.7 mm (p = 0.039) between 0° and 45° knee flexion. Following POL deficiency, medial joint space opening further increased 6.4 ± 2.7 to 11.4 ± 6.2 mm between 0° and 45° knee flexion (p = 0.0035). A combined injury (dMCL/sMCL/POL/ACL) increased medial joint space opening 12.0 ± 4.9 to 21.8 ± 7.9 mm (p < 0.0001) between 0° and 45° knee flexion, compared to the intact state. The intraobserver ICC was 0.995 and the interobserver ICC was 0.955 showing excellent intra‐ and interobserver reliability.ConclusionDeficiency of the medial stabilisers of the knee increased medial joint space opening in stress radiography, whereas isolated dMCL deficiency did not significantly affect valgus gapping. This study demonstrated a good concordance between valgus stress radiography and clinical scores (International Knee Documentation Committee and Hughston). Our findings support performing valgus stress tests at 0° and at least 20° of flexion.Level of EvidenceThere is no level of evidence as this study was an experimental laboratory study.
Optimal Recovery Mode for New Energy Vehicle Battery Recycling Under Government Policies
Authors: Wu Wenqi , Li Ming , Huang George Q. 
Published: January 2025

ABSTRACTThe choice of spent new energy vehicle (NEV) battery recovery mode is crucial to improve recovery performance. This paper examines the decision‐making rules for the closed‐loop supply chain of NEV batteries under the intervention of government policies. It also compares the performance of the supply chain across various recovery modes and the effects of different policies. Results indicate that (1) in terms of total revenue and recovery rate, the battery producer recovery mode, mixed recovery mode involving automobile manufacturer and professional recycler, is more effective. (2) The optimal solution for the decision variable is influenced by government policies, and this influence remains consistent across different recovery modes. (3) The positive impact of the deposit‐return system is linked to the relationship between the deposit amount and the reward scale. If the refund constitutes too small a proportion of the deposit, both total revenue and recovery rate will decline. Reducing recycling channel costs and enhancing purchasers' environmental awareness can increase the battery recycling ratio and higher total revenue.
Human Endogenous Retrovirus K in Astrocytes Is Altered in Parkinson's Disease

Published: January 2025

AbstractBackgroundParkinson's disease (PD) is the most common neurodegenerative movement disease. Human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) are proviral remnants of ancient retroviral infection of germ cells that now constitute about 8% of the human genome. Under certain disease conditions, HERV genes are activated and partake in the disease process. However, virtually nothing is known about the pathological relationship, if any, between HERV and PD.ObjectiveThe objectives of this study were to unravel the pathological relationship between human endogenous retrovirus K (HERV‐K) and PD, determine the localization of HERV‐K in the brain, determine whether HERV‐K levels are altered in PD brain and blood, and examine whether HERV‐K could serve as a biomarker for PD.MethodsIn situ HERV‐K and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) expression in the superior frontal and fusiform cortices of PD and control brain were analyzed using immunofluorescence and confocal microscopy. HERV‐K load and copy number in PD and control blood were measured by digital droplet polymerase chain reaction and GFAP by single‐molecule array. HERV‐K load was analyzed in relation to the Hoehn and Yahr Scale and Movement Disorder Society Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale Part III.ResultsHERV‐K is predominantly expressed in astrocytes and colocalized with astrocytic GFAP, with decreased expression of both HERV‐K and GFAP in PD brain compared with controls. Consistent with this, HERV‐K levels were decreased in PD blood compared with controls and were correlated to blood GFAP levels. HERV‐K levels were inversely correlated to PD severity and duration.ConclusionsThese findings suggest that HERV‐K is related to astrocyte function and to PD progression, and that HERV‐K could be neuroprotective. © 2025 The Author(s).

Experimental investigation on the impact resistance and damage mechanism of carbon/glass unidirectional and woven hybrid laminates
Authors: Wang Yingming , Han Wenqin , Hu Kejun , Zheng Yingxiao 
Published: January 2025

AbstractThe mechanical properties of hybrid fiber composite laminates are affected by the hybrid ratio as well as the stacking sequences, to investigate the effect. In this paper, the effects of the hybrid ratio and stacking sequences on the impact resistance and residual compression properties of carbon/glass unidirectional and woven hybrid laminates are investigated. The use of acoustic emission technology enables the real‐time monitoring of the impact and compression damage processes of carbon/glass composite laminates with varying hybrid ratios and stacking sequences, thereby facilitating the elucidation of the underlying failure mechanisms and the evolution of the laminates. The findings indicated that laminates with symmetrical stacking demonstrated superior impact resistance, resilience, and residual compression properties compared to those with asymmetrical stacking when subjected to high‐energy impact. Sandwich stackings demonstrate superior energy absorption properties relative to alternate‐stacking laminates, although they exhibit diminished residual compression properties. The impact resistance of laminates with a high carbon content under a sandwich stacking sequence is poor. In the context of alternating symmetric stacking, the impact resistance of the laminate is not significantly influenced by the carbon content. The results of the acoustic emission analysis indicate that the damage is minimized when the stacking sequence is alternating symmetry and the impact side is a woven material.Highlights
Enhancing impact resistance of composites through hybrid structure research.
Report the optimal parameters of the effects on the impact resistance of the composite.
The VMD method is used to determine the percentage of damage types in the laminate.

Published: January 2025

ABSTRACTSchool‐wide positive behavioral interventions and supports (PBIS) is a multi‐tiered system of supports that promotes a safe and equitable school environment by supporting the social, emotional, and behavioral needs of all students, including those with extensive support needs (ESN). Research suggests not all students with ESN access and meaningfully participate in all aspects of PBIS, in part due to teachers' misconceptions and negative beliefs concerning the involvement of students with ESN in PBIS. In response to calls for research focused on teacher preparation in this area, we conducted an exploratory survey study of 34 course instructors in undergraduate and graduate teacher preparation programs that prepare special education teachers of students with ESN with a specific focus on universal, Tier 1 PBIS. Instructors at the undergraduate and graduate levels reported addressing a wide range of content focused largely on knowledge acquisition, with fewer reports of course activities involving skill development and practice‐based applications. Overall, instructors viewed the inclusion of content focused on PBIS for students with ESN as important. We present detailed findings, implications for special education teacher preparation programs, and directions for future research extending this line of inquiry.
