AbstractRealizing high thermoelectric performance in CoSb3 skutterudite‐based thin films and their devices is historically challenging, especially due to the lack of high‐performing thin‐film‐based device working at medium‐to‐high temperatures. Here, a record‐high ZT of 1.1 is achieved at 683 K in an n‐type Ce0.3Ni1.5Co2.5Sb12 thin film, fabricated from a self‐designed target via advanced pulsed laser deposition. Both experimental and computational results confirm that the Ce‐filling and metal‐featured nanoinclusions such as CeSb contribute to high electrical conductivity, while the Ni‐doping and significantly strengthen the energy filtering effect that occurs at the dense interfaces between the Ce0.3Ni1.5Co2.5Sb12 matrix and the nanoinclusions which leads to a large Seebeck coefficient, giving rise to such a high ZT. In addition, a new‐type CoSb3 thin‐film‐based device is successfully fabricated, which exhibits a high output power density of 8.25 mW cm−2 at a temperature difference of 140 K and a cold‐side temperature of 573 K, indicating the potential for application to medium‐to‐high‐temperature power generation scenarios.

AbstractSlight modification of the molten salt synthesis of poly(triazine imide) (PTI) with introduction of copper (I) chloride yielded a novel copper modified material. Energy‐dispersive x‐ray spectroscopy together with electron microscopy confirmed homogenous distribution of the copper within PTI lattice. X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy suggests the copper to coordinate randomly at bridging nitrogen atoms. Thus obtained material exhibited excellent sensitivity to nitrite anions together with low limits of detection. Under previously optimized experimental conditions and pH 4 of supporting electrolyte, differential pulse voltammetric detection method showed linear response in wide range from 5 to 2200 μM with detection limit of 1.3 μM. Practical applicability for the developed method was scrutinized in wastewater and pipe water samples. Developed method of metal ion intercalation open doors to widespread introduction of metal ions in the PTI structure for practical utilization.
Dissociation and multiple‐personality disorder in incarcerated women: Observations from the Washington, D.C. detention center. Jail 1987–1989
Authors: Morgan Elizabeth 
Published: August 2023

AbstractBetween 1983 and 1989, the number of women in U.S. jails more than doubled and continues to increase. Most women behind bars have been victims of violence including childhood sexual abuse. This may lead to psychiatric dissociative disorders such as Complex Post‐Traumatic Stress Disorder and Dissociative Identity Disorder (Multiple Personality Disorder.). It is difficult for clinicians to study these women. This article describes several severe dissociative disorders in the women in the Washington, D.C. Detention Center (“D.C. jail”) from September 1987 to September 1989. The author was able to live with them for more than 2 years. The author, a surgeon, kept a diary and frequently intervened in the episodes described here. Conditions in the co‐ed jail were hostile and dangerous to the women inmates. The women's observed dissociative behaviors included Dissociative Identity Disorder (“DID”), prolonged screaming, and prolonged sexual self‐abuse. Dissociative episodes could trigger ones in other women inmates or even in female jail “Officers.” The author suggests (i) that dissociation is likely to be common and severe among incarcerated women (ii) that at least one of its antecedents here is severe childhood sexual abuse and that (iii) judicial and correctional biases exacerbate these symptoms.
Perceived appearance, body shape and adolescent academic achievement: Evidence from Chinese middle school
Authors: Xie Yongxiang , Fan Yong , He Jun 
Published: August 2023

AbstractUsing data from China Education Panel Survey (CEPS), this study aims to investigate the association between perceived appearance, body shape and adolescent academic achievement, elucidate underlying mechanisms, and examine the heterogeneous relationships across different groups. The results suggest that there is an ugliness penalty rather than a beauty premium in Chinese middle school. Overweight and obese students have lower academic achievement than normal weight students. These findings remain robust after replacing the independent variable and dealing with selection bias. Mechanism analysis reveals that teacher preference and non‐cognitive ability are important transmission mechanisms linking perceived appearance with academic achievement. Academic achievement disadvantage in obese students compared with normal weight students is partially transmitted through cognitive ability. Additionally, poor perceived appearance and obesity have a greater negative impact on the academic achievement of disadvantaged groups. These findings better our understanding of perceived appearance and body shape in the formation of educational stratification and provide a scientific basis for equalizing the educational process within schools.
JNK‐interacting protein 4 is a central molecule for lysosomal retrograde trafficking
Authors: Sasazawa Yukiko , Hattori Nobutaka , Saiki Shinji 
Published: August 2023

AbstractLysosomal positioning is an important factor in regulating cellular responses, including autophagy. Because proteins encoded by disease‐responsible genes are involved in lysosomal trafficking, proper intracellular lysosomal trafficking is thought to be essential for cellular homeostasis. In the past few years, the mechanisms of lysosomal trafficking have been elucidated with a focus on adapter proteins linking motor proteins to lysosomes. Here, we outline recent findings on the mechanisms of lysosomal trafficking by focusing on adapter protein c‐Jun NH2‐terminal kinase‐interacting protein (JIP) 4, which plays a central role in this process, and other JIP4 functions and JIP family proteins. Additionally, we discuss neuronal diseases associated with aberrance in the JIP family protein. Accumulating evidence suggests that chemical manipulation of lysosomal positioning may be a therapeutic approach for these neuronal diseases.

Published: August 2023

AbstractThe spatial arrangement of molecules plays a crucial role in determining the macroscopic properties of functional materials. Coordinated polymers (CPs) formed by self‐assembly of organic isomeric ligands and metals offer unique performance characteristics. In this study, we present the investigation of a one‐dimensional CP, named CIT‐E, composed of tetraphenylethene pyridine derivative (TPE‐2by‐2‐E) ligands and copper iodide. The resulting CP exhibits a one‐dimensional bead chain structure with exceptional thermal and chemical stability. By leveraging the competitive absorption between CIT‐E and the explosive analog 2,4‐dinitroaniline, we achieve detection of the explosive through changes in the absorption intensity of the excitation light source and subsequent fluorescence response. The CP demonstrates high selectivity and anti‐interference ability in detecting 2,4‐dinitroaniline in aqueous solution, with a detection linear range of 0.1 to 300 μM and a detection limit of 0.05 μM, surpassing the national third‐level emission standard. These findings highlight the potential of CP CIT‐E as a promising material for the detection of explosive nitroaromatic compounds.

Published: August 2023

AbstractObjectiveMany people, including patients with eating disorders (EDs), experience an increased urge for physical activity. “Trait”‐like activity in patients with EDs is assessed by existing questionnaires, but there are few clinically validated assessments of a “state” urge to be physically active. Here, we developed and validated the State Urge to be Physically Active‐Questionnaire (SUPA‐Q).MethodsAfter developing and piloting the items, N = 126 patients with EDs (mostly anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa) took part in our mixed‐longitudinal validation study with one primary assessment for all patients and a secondary assessment for a subsample of patients. Cronbach's α and split‐half‐methods served as measures of consistency and reliability. Correlations with other questionnaires were used to determine convergent and divergent validity, and confirmatory factor analysis was used for investigating factorial validity. We used paired‐samples t‐tests for repeated assessments to investigate change sensitivity.ResultsWe found the SUPA‐Q to be highly consistent, and reliable and to demonstrate convergent, divergent, and factorial validity. The comparison of SUPA‐Q scores from repeated assessments within a subsample of patients demonstrated the questionnaire's change sensitivity, Cohen's d = 0.48. Moreover, an increase in SUPA‐Q scores was associated with a less positive mood, more anxiety, more body dissatisfaction, more tenseness, less feelings of control, and more stress.DiscussionThe newly developed SUPA‐Q may help to accentuate the necessity to evaluate and address the acute urge to engage in physical activity in patients with EDs in clinical practice and ultimately support tailoring treatments to patients’ unique symptom patterns.

How can we build inclusive circular supply chains? Examining the case of agricultural residue usage in India
Authors: Härri Anna , Levänen Jarkko , Malik Kamla 
Published: August 2023

AbstractCircular economies can, at best, contribute to sustainable development. Nevertheless, the realisation of positive social and environmental impacts depends partially on the dynamics of actors' inclusion in circular processes. We identify factors affecting the inclusion of farmers in agricultural residue supply chains in India and the socio‐ecological impacts thereof. We also introduce a framework for designing inclusive and just circular practices. Information, resources, co‐operation, and co‐design act as mediators to socio‐ecological impacts. The failure to consider these aspects may lead to unintended negative consequences, such as declined soil health or delays in other operations. The positive outcomes of selling the residue are linked to improved livelihood opportunities, local development and health. Selling is only a partial solution, and other straw management methods, such as incorporation, should also be applied.

Published: August 2023

AbstractThe wireless sensor network energy supply technology for the Internet of things has progressed substantially, but attempts to provide sustainable and environmentally friendly energy for sensor networks remain limited and considerably cumbersome for practical application. Energy harvesting devices based on the magnetoelectric (ME) coupling effect have promising prospects in the field of self‐powered devices due to their advantages of small size, fast response, and low power consumption. Driven by application requirements, the development of composite with a self‐biased magnetoelectric (SME) coupling effect provides effective strategies for the miniaturized and high‐precision design of energy harvesting devices. This review summarizes the work mechanism, research status, characteristics, and structures of SME composites, with emphasis on the application and development of SME devices for vibration and magnetic energy harvesting. The main challenges and future development directions for the design and implementation of energy harvesting devices based on the SME effect are presented.

AbstractBackgroundExercise therapy during cancer treatment reduces symptom burden and improves quality of life (QoL). Polycythemia vera (PV) is a myeloproliferative neoplasia associated with good overall survival (up to decades) but a significant symptom burden, including thromboembolic events and dysesthesias. There are no specific exercise recommendations for patients with PV. Thus, we aimed to determine the exercise preferences of patients with PV and to derive specific recommendations based on the most commonly reported symptoms.MethodsThis multicenter survey included patients with PV ≥18 years old. Demographic, clinical, and disease burden data were collected. The severity of selected symptoms was assessed using the adapted Myeloproliferative Neoplasms Symptom Assessment Form: 0 (absent), 1–30 (mild), 31–70 (moderate), or 71–100 (severe). The patients' information needs about physical activity (PA) and exercise preferences were recorded depending on their motivation and analyzed with regard to demographic aspects.ResultsThe sample comprised 182 patients (68% female, 61 ± 12 years). The prevalence of moderate‐to‐severe symptoms was 60% for fatigue, 44% for concentration problems, and 35% for bone/muscle pain. Other commonly reported symptoms included skin reactions (49%), splenomegaly (35%), and increased bleeding tendency (28%). Overall, 67% of respondents requested more information regarding PA. Patients with PV preferred individual training (79%) located outdoors (79%) or at home (56%). Regarding the amount of training, sports‐inactive patients preferred a frequency of 1–2 times/week and session durations of 15–45 min, whereas sports‐active patients preferred 3–4 times/week and 30–60 min (p < 0.001). Higher sport‐inactiveness was observed in patients with lower educational level compared to patients with higher educational level (69% vs. 50%, p = 0.021). For beginners, combined resistance‐endurance (circuit) training two times/week, which can be performed outdoors or at home, should be recommended. In the case of splenomegaly or bleeding symptoms, exercises with a low injury risk should be chosen.ConclusionPA is important for patients with PV; therefore, counseling should be integrated into the treatment plan. Specifically, patients with low educational level should be addressed. Prospective studies are warranted to evaluate the effects of the novel exercise recommendations.

AbstractBackgroundLymph node metastasis (LNM) significantly impacts the prognosis of individuals diagnosed with cervical cancer, as it is closely linked to disease recurrence and mortality, thereby impacting therapeutic schedule choices for patients. However, accurately predicting LNM prior to treatment remains challenging. Consequently, this study seeks to utilize digital pathological features extracted from histopathological slides of primary cervical cancer patients to preoperatively predict the presence of LNM.MethodsA deep learning (DL) model was trained using the Vision transformer (ViT) and recurrent neural network (RNN) frameworks to predict LNM. This prediction was based on the analysis of 554 histopathological whole‐slide images (WSIs) obtained from Qilu Hospital of Shandong University. To validate the model's performance, an external test was conducted using 336 WSIs from four other hospitals. Additionally, the efficiency of the DL model was evaluated using 190 cervical biopsies WSIs in a prospective set.ResultsIn the internal test set, our DL model achieved an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.919, with sensitivity and specificity values of 0.923 and 0.905, respectively, and an accuracy (ACC) of 0.909. The performance of the DL model remained strong in the external test set. In the prospective cohort, the AUC was 0.91, and the ACC was 0.895. Additionally, the DL model exhibited higher accuracy compared to imaging examination in the evaluation of LNM. By utilizing the transformer visualization method, we generated a heatmap that illustrates the local pathological features in primary lesions relevant to LNM.ConclusionDL‐based image analysis has demonstrated efficiency in predicting LNM in early operable cervical cancer through the utilization of biopsies WSI. This approach has the potential to enhance therapeutic decision‐making for patients diagnosed with cervical cancer.
Being a mother with anorexia: A phenomenological study of seeking and receiving professional support for white heterosexual women in the UK
Authors: Fitzpatrick Marie‐Claire , Clarke Victoria , Ramsey‐Wade Christine , Moller Naomi 
Published: August 2023

AbstractMothers are currently under‐represented in the literature on anorexia, including research on treatment, with most research focussed on female adolescents. This raises questions about how adult women and particularly those who are mothers, experience eating disorder treatment. This study provides a phenomenological exploration of lived experiences of seeking and receiving professional help and interactions with health professionals for six white heterosexual mothers who experienced anorexia while raising their children. Four themes are reported that capture the women's diverse experiences of seeking and receiving support for anorexia: (1) conflict between mothering and seeking help; (2) experiences of feeling blamed, poorly treated or misunderstood by health professionals; (3) positive experiences of seeking and receiving support; and (4) the importance of ongoing support. The women's experiences suggest that healthcare professionals should adopt a more holistic approach that acknowledges the subjective reality of the client (including their mother status) when working with mothers experiencing anorexia.
Cryogenic Ion Fluorescence Spectroscopy: FRET in Rhodamine Homodimers and Heterodimers

Published: August 2023

AbstractThe internal electronic communication between two or more light‐absorbers is fundamental for energy‐transport processes, a field of large current interest. Here the intrinsic photophysics of homo‐ and heterodimers of rhodamine cations were studied where just two methylene units bridge the dyes. Gas‐phase experiments were done on frozen molecular ions at cryogenic temperatures using the newly built LUNA2 mass spectroscopy setup in Aarhus. Both absorption (from fluorescence excitation) and dispersed‐fluorescence spectra were measured. In the gas phase, there is no dielectric screening from solvent molecules, and the effect of charges on transition energies is maximum. Indeed, bands are redshifted compared to those of monomer dyes due to the electric field that each dye senses from the other in a dimer. Importantly, also, as two chemically identical dyes in a homodimer do not experience the same field along the long axis, each dye has separate absorption. At low temperatures, it is therefore possible to selectively excite one dye. Fluorescence is dominantly from the dye with the lowest transition energy no matter which dye is photoexcited. Hence this work unequivocally demonstrates Förster Resonance Energy Transfer even in homodimers where one dye acts as donor and the other as acceptor.

AbstractAn 81‐year‐old Japanese man presented with a history of recurrent eyelid swelling and purpura on the face, neck, and limbs. Because the initial clinical presentation was angioedema alone, the patient was treated with an H1‐receptor antagonist and tranexamic acid as for an idiopathic angioedema. The patient also experienced dyspnea simultaneously with edema on the face and limbs and was thus taken to the emergency room, where laryngeal edema was confirmed on laryngeal fiber. A good response to hydrocortisone injection was observed in the patient. ACE inhibitors were never prescribed for the patient, and there was no family history of angioedema. Laboratory data indicated normocomplementemia, and skin biopsies revealed leukocytoclastic vasculitis. Therefore, the patient was diagnosed with NUV. Following hospitalization, the patient experienced appetite loss and the CRP level increased, presenting with thickening and stranding around colon tissues on abdominal CT. These symptoms responded well to prednisone treatment. Given that the initial clinical manifestation of the current case was mainly angioedema, physicians should consider that angioedema may in rare cases be diagnostic for UV.
