Published: June 2023

SummaryThis study aims to investigate influences of different acylations (acetyl, propionyl and butyryl) with different degrees of substitution (DS) on physicochemical properties and digestion characteristics of Arenga pinnata starches (APS). The presence of acyl protons was confirmed by 1H NMR and FT‐IR spectroscopy of acylated APS. The viscosities, swelling power, thermal properties and crystallinity of acylated APS were lower than APS, but these characteristics tended to increase with the increase of DS. Acylation could effectively regulate the digestibility of starch granules. The content of resistant starch in acylated APS increased from 66.58% to 80.92%. With the DS increasing, acylation strengthened the rearrangement and aggregation behaviour of APS molecular chains, making the crystal structure and double helix structure of amylopectin crystal region more orderly, which might lead to changes in the pasting properties and digestibility. It was possible to evaluate the effectiveness of low‐substituted acylated APS.

SummaryChitosan (CS) nanoparticles were formed by two different methodologies: ionic (with sodium tripolyphosphate ‐TPP) and chemical (with genipin ‐GN) cross‐linking. CS–TPP and CS–GN nanoparticles showed positive zeta potential (+46.24 and +62.86 mV, respectively) and sizes ranging from 83.70 to 835.91 nm, respectively. Ionic cross‐linking (with TPP) resulted in particles smaller than those formed by chemical cross‐linking (with GN). The in vitro antibacterial activity revealed an efficient inhibitory effect, especially regarding CS–TPP. In situ, antibacterial and antioxidant studies were carried out on O/W emulsions. The mesophilic and psychrotrophic counts, peroxide value and quantification of conjugated dienes and trienes during time revealed that nanoparticles tend to improve the microbiological and oxidative stability of emulsions. These findings underline the direct relationship between the reduction of particle size and the increase in biopolymer functional properties and expand the possibilities of CS application as a natural preservative of emulsified systems.

Published: June 2023

SummaryDuring home pizza delivery in cardboard boxes uncontrolled heat and mass transfer processes occur. This work aimed to evaluate how the textural and sensory properties change from the moment the pizza is taken out of the oven and the moment of its consumption at home. Such properties were also assessed for a novel takeaway pizza service involving pizza baking, freezing, packing, delivery and reheating at home to save leavened dough balls unused at the end of everyday working activity. Panellists preferred freshly baked pizza, but frozen pizza was more preferred over all pizzas kept in cardboard boxes for 10–30 min. The cradle‐to‐grave carbon footprint and cost of frozen pizza were finally assessed to show how such a food product, that would have been wasted, might be profitably converted into a high‐quality alternative takeaway pizza service.

Published: June 2023

SummaryEffects of immersion freezing (IF), osmo‐dehydrofreezing (ODF) and air freezing (AF) on freezing parameters and physicochemical properties of frozen mango were studied. Results showed that IF had the shortest freezing time, followed by ODF and AF. In ODF groups, dehydrofreezing in 50% glucose (G‐50) showed the highest quality. Mangoes pre‐treated in glucose had higher quality than those pre‐treated in trehalose. The quality of osmo‐dehydrofrozen mangoes was more affected by freezing rate than by difference between freezing temperature and the glass transition temperature (T−). Compared with the AF, IF in 60% ethylene glycol (EG‐60) and ODF in G‐50 significantly improved the quality of mangoes, including colour change and drip loss reduced by 43.7%, 28.6%, 41.4% and 19.6%, hardness increased by 540.7% and 413.6%, and contents of vitamin C and total phenol increased by 30.7%, 24.3%, 18.3% and 6.4%, respectively. Overall, IF in EG‐60 was the most favourable method for frozen mangoes.

SummarySophorolipids present antimicrobial and antioxidant activities allowing their application in meat products such as sausages. In this study, formulations of chicken sausages were developed with 0.008%–0.06% sophorolipid supplementation. Microbiological analyses showed that sophorolipids induced a significant reduction in Clostridium perfringens contamination and decreased lipid oxidation rates compared with control samples (sausages with curing salts). The formulation with 0.06% sophorolipids showed a significant difference in strength, hardness, adhesiveness, gumminess and chewiness compared with the control formulation. The sausages with sophorolipids presented a less porous mass with fewer cracks, improving the structure of the sausages. Thus, the use of sophorolipids improved the microbiological, antioxidant and physicochemical properties of chicken sausages, being an innovative alternative to replace usual preservatives.
A comparison of blueberry polyphenols bioaccessibility in whey and pea proteins complexes and the impact of protein conformational changes on it
Authors: Ahmadi Latifeh , Dent Terrence , Maleky Farnaz 
Published: June 2023

SummaryThis study investigated the effects of pea and whey proteins on the bio‐accessibility and antioxidant activity of blueberry polyphenolic compounds during digestion using an in vitro gastrointestinal model (TIM‐1). The research objective was understanding how different protein sources affect blueberry polyphenols' bio‐accessibility and antioxidant activity. The study found that pea proteins resulted in higher bio‐accessibility and anthocyanin content compared to whey proteins. Additionally, interactions between blueberry polyphenols and proteins decreased the antioxidant activity. However, forming a non‐covalent and reversible complex between pea proteins and blueberry polyphenols may improve polyphenol stability and bio‐accessibility during digestion. The novel aspects of this research provide valuable insights into the effects of protein sources on the bio‐accessibility and antioxidant activity of blueberry polyphenols and may have important implications for developing functional foods and dietary supplements. The most important impact of the research is that pea proteins resulted in higher bio‐accessibility and anthocyanin content compared to whey proteins, which suggests that pea proteins may be a better protein source for combining with blueberries to maximise their health benefits. Additionally, forming a non‐covalent and reversible complex between pea proteins and blueberry polyphenols may improve polyphenol stability and bio‐accessibility during digestion, which has implications for the food industry in developing new products.
The Difference Jesus Makes: Yuval Noah Harari and Wolfhart Pannenberg on the Shape of Universal History
Authors: Kramer E. J. David 
Published: June 2023

AbstractThe Christian confession of who Jesus is must be made in the contested space of conflicting accounts of history. This article compares the shape of universal history set out by Yuval Noah Harari with that of Wolfhart Pannenberg by sketching their accounts of human beginnings, the middle of history, and their view to the future. Harari's secular account can be summarized as the rise and fall of homo sapiens, as historical developments lead to techno‐humanism and dataism. Jesus Christ holds no significant place in this narrative. Pannenberg's theological interpretation of history sees it originating in God's self‐giving love, climaxing in the Son's revelation, and leading to a new creation. This comparison leads to five propositions on how Christians may speak of who Jesus Christ is today.

Published: June 2023

AbstractLipid metabolism plays an important role in the repair of skin wounds. Studies have shown that acupuncture is very effective in skin wound repair. However, there is little knowledge about the mechanism of electroacupuncture. Thirty‐six SD rats were divided into three groups: sham‐operated group, model group and electroacupuncture group, with 12 rats in each group. After the intervention, local skin tissues were collected for lipid metabolomics analysis, wound perfusion and ferroptosis‐related indexes were detected and finally the effect of electroacupuncture on skin wound repair was comprehensively evaluated by combining wound healing rate and histology. Lipid metabolomics analysis revealed 37 differential metabolites shared by the three groups, mainly phospholipids, lysophospholipids, glycerides, acylcarnitine, sphingolipids and fatty acids, and they could be back‐regulated after electroacupuncture. The recovery of blood perfusion and wound healing was faster in the electroacupuncture group than in the model group (p < 0.05). The levels of GPX4, FTH1, SOD and GSH‐PX, which are related to ferroptosis, were higher in the electroacupuncture group than in the model group (p < 0.05). The levels of ACSL4 and MDA were lower in the electroacupuncture group than in the model group (p < 0.05). Electroacupuncture may promote skin wound repair by improving lipid metabolism and inhibiting ferroptosis in local tissues.
A new approach to stress of conscience's dimensionality: Hindrance and violation stressors and their role in experiencing burnout and turnover intentions in healthcare
Authors: Herttalampi Mari , Feldt Taru 
Published: June 2023

AbstractAimsTo identify a valid, longitudinally invariant factor model for stress of conscience and to investigate how stress of conscience dimensions associate with burnout and turnover intentions.BackgroundThere has been a lack of consensus about the number and content of stress of conscience dimensions, and a lack of longitudinal studies on its development and outcomes.DesignA longitudinal, person‐centred survey study using the STROBE checklist.MethodsHealthcare personnel (n = 306) rated their stress of conscience in 2019 and 2021. Longitudinal latent profile analysis was used to identify different subgroups based on the employees' experiences. These subgroups were then compared in terms of burnout and organisational/professional turnover.ResultsFive subgroups were identified, where participants experienced: (1) hindrance‐related stress (14%), (2) violation‐related stress (2%), (3) both stress dimensions increasing over time (13%), (4) both high yet decreasing over time (7%), and (5) stable levels of low stress (64%). When both hindrance‐ and violated‐related stress were high, it was a significant risk for burnout and turnover. Shortened, 6‐item, two‐dimensional scale for stress of conscience was found to be reliable, valid, and longitudinally invariant.ConclusionOn its own, hindrance‐related stress (e.g. lowering one's aspirations for high‐quality work) is less detrimental to well‐being than when it is combined with violation‐related stress (e.g. being forced to do something that feels wrong).Implications for the Profession Patient CareTo prevent burnout and staff turnover in healthcare, different risk factors for stress of conscience need to be identified and addressed.Public ContributionData were collected among public sector healthcare workers.Relevance to Clinical PracticeIf healthcare workers are forced to ignore their personal values at work, it poses a significant risk for their well‐being and retention.

Published: June 2023

AbstractIndo‐Pacific humpback dolphins (Sousa chinensis) inhabiting the Chinese coastline of the northern South China Sea are subject to intense human activity. To investigate potential impacts to dolphins, photographs taken from 2010 to 2021 in five different locations were analyzed. Among individual dolphins (N = 1,159), 10.6% presented human‐induced injuries. Adults were more frequently injured than young dolphins, and individuals from around Jiangmen, Hainan, and Sanniang Bay presented the highest injury prevalence. More research should be conducted in areas that have been subject to less research, such as Jiangmen and Hainan, and the dolphin watching activities occurring in Sanniang Bay should be monitored and regulated. Forty‐seven percent of dolphins presented skin conditions, with orange patches being the most frequent (41.5%). Orange patches and hyper‐pigmented pink spots were significantly less prevalent in summer and fall than in winter and spring. Orange patches were less frequent in females than in males, as well as with calves relative to older age classes. Seasonal patterns may be linked to water temperatures, while demographic patterns may be associated with immune defenses. These findings allow for a better understanding of the potential impact of human activities on Indo‐Pacific humpback dolphins and should inform further conservation measures.

AbstractRice blast caused by Magnaporthe oryzae is one of the most destructive diseases and poses a growing threat to food security worldwide. Like many other filamentous pathogens, rice blast fungus releases multiple types of effector proteins to facilitate fungal infection and modulate host defence responses. However, most of the characterized effectors contain an N‐terminal signal peptide. Here, we report the results of the functional characterization of a nonclassically secreted nuclear targeting effector in M. oryzae (MoNte1). MoNte1 has no signal peptide, but can be secreted and translocated into plant nuclei driven by a nuclear targeting peptide. It could also induce hypersensitive cell death when transiently expressed in Nicotiana benthamiana. Deletion of the MoNTE1 gene caused a significant reduction of fungal growth and conidiogenesis, partially impaired appressorium formation and host colonization, and also dramatically attenuated the pathogenicity. Taken together, these findings reveal a novel effector secretion pathway and deepen our understanding of rice–M. oryzae interactions.

Summary
Inorganic phosphate (Pi) is a necessary macronutrient for basic biological processes. Plants modulate their root system architecture (RSA) and cellular processes to adapt to Pi deprivation albeit with a growth penalty. Excess application of Pi fertilizer, on the contrary, leads to eutrophication and has a negative environmental impact.
We compared RSA, root hair elongation, acid phosphatase activity, metal ion accumulation, and brassinosteroid hormone levels of Solanum lycopersicum (tomato) and Solanum pennellii, which is a wild relative of tomato, under Pi sufficiency and deficiency conditions to understand the molecular mechanism of Pi deprivation response in tomato.
We showed that S. pennellii is partially insensitive to phosphate deprivation. Furthermore, it mounts a constitutive response under phosphate sufficiency. We demonstrate that activated brassinosteroid signaling through a tomato BZR1 ortholog gives rise to the same constitutive phosphate deficiency response, which is dependent on zinc overaccumulation.
Collectively, these results reveal an additional strategy by which plants can adapt to phosphate starvation.
Care in nursing as a contested concept? A Bergsonian perspective
Authors: Robinson Keith 
Published: June 2023

AbstractThe concept of care has occupied a central place in nursing philosophy and scholarship since the modern formation of the profession. Perhaps the defining character of the scholarship has been the recognition not only of the complexity of the concept of care, its elusiveness and ambiguity, but also the lack of consensus or agreement regarding its meaning and value. I will make two interconnected arguments: first, I will argue that disputes around care are not an accidental feature or an unfortunate condition of its applicability. Rather, care is an example of what I will call, following W.B. Gallie (1956), an “essentially contested” concept. Secondly, I will employ insights from the French philosopher Henri Bergson (1859‐1941) to explore the concept of care and argue that the essentially contested processual nature of care is the source of its meaning and value.

AbstractBackgroundIdentifying treatment responders after a single session of photo‐based procedure for hyperpigmentary disorders may be difficult.ObjectivesWe aim to train a convolutional neural network (CNN) to test the hypothesis that there exist discernible features in pretreatment photographs for identifying favorable responses after photo‐based treatments for facial hyperpigmentation and develop a clinically applicable algorithm to predict treatment outcome.MethodsTwo hundred and sixty‐four sets of pretreatment photographs of subjects receiving photo‐based treatment for esthetic enhancement were obtained using the VISIA® skin analysis system. Preprocessing was done by masking the facial features of the photographs. Each set of photographs consists of five types of images. Five independently trained CNNs based on the Resnet50 backbone were developed based on these images and the results of these CNNs were combined to obtain the final result.ResultsThe developed CNN algorithm has a prediction accuracy approaching 78.5% with area under the receiver operating characteristic curve being 0.839.ConclusionThe treatment efficacy of photo‐based therapies on facial skin pigmentation can be predicted based on pretreatment images.
Expressing and receiving negative emotions: Comments on Myisha Cherry's The Case for Rage

Published: June 2023

AbstractResponding to Myisha Cherry's The Case for Rage, I discuss how the book touches on the difficulties of disentangling emotions and their expressions. Then I suggest two ways in which destructive rage might be good, one on Kantian grounds and another via extension from experience. Finally, I raise the issue of whether there might be other Lordean emotions.

Published: June 2023

Abstract
Blood clots originating in the left atrial appendage (LAA) are the leading cause of ischemic stroke in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (AF). Complications from and contraindications to oral anticoagulants (OACs), in addition to the recent successes of endocardial LAA closure devices, have driven increased interest in mechanical LAA occlusion. However, current devices are limited in their abilities to accommodate diverse LAA anatomies, motivating the development of a novel endocardial LAA occluder that supports more anatomical variability. We present the design of an in-situ expandable plug as well as an accompanying pacifier module for LAA occlusion. The final design accommodates LAA diameter ranges of 14 millimeters for each device size (10-24mm and 24-38mm), double that of any approved device. This adaptability can help to overcome imperfect pre-procedural imaging and suboptimal device fit. Benchtop tug and leak tests demonstrate the stability and sealing capacities of the design.

Abstract
Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) is an inheritable heart disease with the highest rate of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in young adults. Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) therapy is recommended for HCM patients at high risk for SCD. Reviewing the recent clinical literature revealed the potential to improve the selection of candidates for ICD implantation. The current study uses information extracted from echocardiography reports to evaluate HCM patients with ICD and aims to provide a comparative insight into patients who benefited the most from the device therapy, including shock and anti-tachycardia pacing (ATP). The proposed interpretable machine learning approach has used the XGboost algorithm. The model’s performance was considered satisfactory, as evidenced by an accuracy score of 81% and an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) value of 69% and SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) identified common properties of HCM patients in each category and provided high-level reasoning and foundation for a clinical decision support tool.
