Justice Now and Later: How Measures Taken to Address Wrongdoings during Armed Conflict Affect Postconflict Justice
Authors: Binningsbø Helga Malmin , Drange Bård , Loyle Cyanne E 
Published: July 2023

ABSTRACT∞
Transitional justice has become a default response when rebuilding postconflict societies. Indeed, to reconcile and move forward, it is argued that societies need to confront the violence of the past. But what factors influence when and how past violence will be addressed? We argue that judicial and quasi-judicial processes initiated while armed conflict is ongoing have a substantial impact on the judicial policies pursued once conflict has ended. Through an analysis of during- and postconflict justice in Colombia since 2000, we demonstrate that a history of addressing human rights violations makes it more likely that transitional justice will be adopted given three mechanisms: policy precedent, institutional repertories and public expectations. We analyse this relationship through global patterns of during- and postconflict justice since 1946. Our findings confirm the expectation that justice polices pursued (or not pursued) during conflict are a strong factor in understanding how the past will be addressed post conflict.
The Epistemic Violence of Transitional Justice: A View from Sri Lanka
Authors: Grewal Kiran Kaur 
Published: July 2023

ABSTRACT
In this article I explore the failures of transitional justice in post-war Sri Lanka. For most commentators this is simply explained in terms of a lack of political will. However, I argue that beyond this transitional justice in Sri Lanka is a story of epistemic violence. This is a result of its over-reliance on abstract, universalist liberal democratic theory that fails to properly grasp the historical, cultural and socio-political specificity not just of the locations where transitional justice is proposed but of the conceptual foundation of transitional justice itself. As a result, transitional justice simultaneously discounts colonial legacies while reproducing colonial categories. In the case of Sri Lanka this has resulted in a failure to fully understand and address the root causes of conflict and an inability to see and draw upon resources for reconciliation, reparation and redress.
Memory Activism as Advocacy for Transitional Justice: Memory Laws, Mass Graves and Impunity in Spain
Authors: Hepworth Andrea 
Published: July 2023

ABSTRACT∞
Transitional justice in Spain is still an ongoing process. This article examines the impact of memory laws and the rise of the radical right on transitional justice measures and the historical memory movement in Spain. It contends that the continued application of the 46/1977 Amnesty Law and the campaigning by radical right party Vox to repeal memory laws left a legal vacuum that precipitated interventions by memory activist groups. It is argued that these protest actions are a form of advocacy for participatory transitional justice. The article first focuses on Andalusia’s 2017 memory law and the rise of Vox in the region. Subsequently, it examines the effect of the state’s Democratic Memory Law (2022) on memory and justice measures and argues that both bottom-up approaches by civil society organizations and top-down measures by state actors are essential to transform Spain into a society anchored in the five pillars of transitional justice.

Abstract

Background
We compared homologous and heterologous boosting in adults in the Philippines primed with 2 or 3 doses of CoronaVac, with recombinant protein vaccine, SCB-2019.

Methods
CoronaVac-immunized adults (18–72 years) received a homologous or heterologous full or half dose SCB-2019 booster. We assessed all neutralizing antibody (NAb) responses against prototype SARS-CoV-2 after 15 days and NAb against SARS-CoV-2 Delta and Omicron variants in subsets (30‒50 per arm). Participants recorded adverse events.

Results
In 2-dose CoronaVac-primed adults prototype NAb geometric mean titers (GMT) were 203 IU/mL (95% confidence interval [CI], 182–227) and 939 IU/mL (95% CI, 841–1049) after CoronaVac and SCB-2019 boosters; the GMT ratio (4.63; 95% CI, 3.95–5.41) met predefined noninferiority and post-hoc superiority criteria. After 3-dose CoronaVac-priming prototype NAb GMTs were 279 IU/mL (95% CI, 240–325), 1044 IU/mL (95% CI, 898–1213), and 668 IU/mL (95% CI, 520–829) following CoronaVac, full and half-dose SCB-2019 boosters, respectively. NAb GMT ratios against Delta and Omicron comparing SCB-2019 with CoronaVac were all greater than 2. Mild to moderate reactogenicity was evenly balanced between groups. No vaccine-related serious adverse events were reported.

Conclusions
Full or half dose SCB-2019 boosters were well tolerated with superior immunogenicity than homologous CoronaVac, particularly against newly emerged variants.

The multifaceted genusAcinetobacter: from infection to bioremediation
Authors: Dahal Ujwal , Paul Karan , Gupta Shelly 
Published: July 2023

AbstractAcinetobacter is a vast bacterial genus comprising of numerous species with variable characteristics. The enigma associated with clinical strains that have been implicated in many nosocomial outbreaks has prompted the need for continuous research on pathogens like Acinetobacter baumannii and members of the ACB complex. However, numerous species of Acinetobacter genus possess diverse metabolic capabilities and have the potential for a plethora of industrial and environment-based applications. Therefore, a comprehensive review on the entire genus, including many under-represented topics, would contribute extensive information to the scientific community indulged in Acinetobacter research. The current review is a unique compilation that attempts to provide the latest update on the genus covering its clinical as well as ecological aspects. Moreover, it is the first study of its kind that focuses on the entire genus and elaborates on the phylogenetic relationships, pathogenesis, and virulence mechanisms, followed by emerging biotechnological applications with future directions.

Abstract
Information visualizations are increasingly being developed by informatics researchers to communicate health information to lay audiences. For high-quality results, it is advisable to collaborate with creative professionals such as graphic designers, illustrators, or user interface/user experience designers. However, such collaborations are often a novel experience for both parties, each of which may be unfamiliar with the needs and processes of the other. We have coalesced our experiences from both the research and design perspectives to offer practical guidance in hopes of promoting the success of future collaborations. We offer suggestions for determining design needs, communicating with design professionals, and carrying out the design process. We assert that successful collaborations are predicated on careful and intentional planning at the outset of a project, a thorough understanding of each party’s scope expertise, clear communication, and ample time for the design process to unfold.
Targeted messaging to improve the adoption of clinical decision support for prescription drug monitoring program use
Authors: Sommers Stuart , Tolle Heather , Napier Cheryl , Hoppe Jason 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
Clinical decision support (CDS) can prevent medical errors and improve patient outcomes. Electronic health record (EHR)-based CDS, designed to facilitate prescription drug monitoring program (PDMP) review, has reduced inappropriate opioid prescribing. However, the pooled effectiveness of CDS has exhibited substantial heterogeneity and current literature does not adequately detail why certain CDS are more successful than others. Clinicians regularly override CDS, limiting its impact. No studies recommend how to help nonadopters recognize and recover from CDS misuse. We hypothesized that a targeted educational intervention would improve CDS adoption and effectiveness for nonadopters. Over 10 months, we identified 478 providers consistently overriding CDS (nonadopters) and sent each up to 3 educational message(s) via email or EHR-based chat. One hundred sixty-one (34%) nonadopters stopped consistently overriding CDS and started reviewing the PDMP after contact. We concluded that targeted messaging is a low-resource way to disseminate CDS education and improve CDS adoption and best practice delivery.
Replacement of dietary fish meal by fermented soybean meal improves growth, energy metabolism, and innate immune response in Penaeus vannamei Boone, 1931 (Decapoda: Dendrobranchiata: Penaeidae)

Abstract
Fishmeal (FM) is considered a preferred source of protein for aquatic feed due to its good palatability and digestibility, a balanced amino acid profile, and a low level of anti-nutritional factors (ANFs). Shortage of FM supply and increases in price, however, are major challenges faced by feed producers and aquaculture farmers. Fermented soybean meal (FSBM) has been proposed to partially replace FM because of its high nutritional value and low cost. The optimal FSBM concentration for substituting FM and effects of FSBM substitution on growth performance, energy metabolism, and immune response nevertheless remain unclear. We evaluated the effects of shrimp diets containing FSBM at 0% (FM), 25% (FSBM25), 50% (FSBM50), 75% (FSBM75), and 100% (FSBM100) on the shrimp Penaeus vannameiBoone, 1931. FSBM50 led to a significantly higher weight gain (postlarvae 1927.36 ± 46.64%, young juveniles 237.00 ± 8.25%, and juveniles 153.96 ± 2.18%) than the other experimental and control diets in different stages of the shrimp. The FM group consumed less oxygen than the experimental diet groups. FSBM75 and FSBM100 led to a significantly higher ammonia-N excretion than FM, FSBM25, and FBSM50. All experimental diet groups exhibited a significantly higher O:N ratio (8.3 ± 0.8–9.4 ± 1.7) than the FM group (7.1 ± 0.2). Shrimp fed with FSBM25- and FSBM50-containing diets exhibited an increased total hemocyte count, and FSBM25, FBSM50, and FSBM100 led to a significantly higher superoxide anion production than FSBM75 and FM. FSBM substitution in shrimp diets resulted in a significantly higher phagocytic activity than the FM diet, suggesting that FSBM substitution improves the cell-mediated immune response in shrimps. In challenge trials with white spot syndrome virus (WSSV), all experimental diets led to a higher survival rate than the FM diet, and in Vibrio parahaemolyticus challenge trials, FSBM50 led to a higher survival rate than the other experimental and control diets, indicating that FSBM substitution in shrimp diets could improve the defense capacity of shrimps against WSSV and V. parahaemolyticus.
The great recession and the public sector in rural America
Authors: Rodden Jonathan 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
Why did rural areas recover from the great recession much more slowly than metropolitan areas? Due to declining tax revenues and intergovernmental aid, employment in the American local government sector fell substantially after the great recession. Cuts to local public employment were especially large, long-lasting and consequential in rural areas, which have become relatively dependent on public-sector employment and intergovernmental transfers. The public sector is relatively inconsequential in urban America, but in many rural places, a decade after the great recession, the public sector was the slowest category of employment to recover and the leading source of long-term job losses.
Heterogeneity of Signaling Complex Nanostructure in T Cells Activated Via the T Cell Antigen Receptor

Published: July 2023

Abstract
Activation of the T cell antigen receptor (TCR) is a key step in initiating the adaptive immune response. Single-molecule localization techniques have been used to investigate the arrangement of proteins within the signaling complexes formed around activated TCRs, but a clear picture of nanoscale organization in stimulated T cells has not emerged. Here, we have improved the examination of T cell nanostructure by visualizing individual molecules of six different proteins in a single sample of activated Jurkat T cells using the multiplexed antibody-size limited direct stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy (madSTORM) technique. We formally define irregularly shaped regions of interest, compare areas where signaling complexes are concentrated with other areas, and improve the statistical analyses of the locations of molecules. We show that nanoscale organization of proteins is mainly confined to the areas with dense concentrations of TCR-based signaling complexes. However, randomly distributed molecules are also found in some areas containing concentrated signaling complexes. These results are consistent with the view that the proteins within signaling complexes are connected by numerous weak interactions, leading to flexible, dynamic, and mutable structures which produce large variations in the nanostructure found in activated T cells.

Abstract
Pancreatic fungal infection (PFI) in patients with necrotizing pancreatitis can lead to significant morbidity and mortality. The incidence of PFI has increased during the past decade. Our study aimed to provide contemporary observations on the clinical characteristics and outcomes of PFI in comparison to pancreatic bacterial infection and necrotizing pancreatitis without infection. We conducted a retrospective study of patients with necrotizing pancreatitis (acute necrotic collection or walled-off necrosis), who underwent pancreatic intervention (necrosectomy and/or drainage) and had tissue/fluid culture between 2005 and 2021. We excluded patients with pancreatic procedures prior to hospitalization. Multivariable logistic and Cox regression models were fitted for in-hospital and 1-year survival outcomes. A total of 225 patients with necrotizing pancreatitis were included. Pancreatic fluid and/or tissue was obtained from endoscopic necrosectomy and/or drainage (76.0%), CT-guided percutaneous aspiration (20.9%), or surgical necrosectomy (3.1%). Nearly half of the patients had PFI with or without concomitant bacterial infection (48.0%), while the remaining patients had either bacterial infection alone (31.1%) or no infection (20.9%). In multivariable analysis to assess the risk of PFI or bacterial infection alone, only previous pancreatitis was associated with an increased odds of PFI vs. no infection (OR 4.07, 95% CI 1.13-14.69, p = .032). Multivariable regression analyses revealed no significant differences in in-hospital outcomes or one-year survival between the 3 groups. Pancreatic fungal infection occurred in nearly half of necrotizing pancreatitis. Contrary to many of the previous reports, there was no significant difference in important clinical outcomes between the PFI group and each of the other two groups.

ABSTRACT
Even though the electromagnetic counterpart AT2017gfo to the binary neutron star merger GW170817 is powered by the radioactive decay of r-process nuclei, only few tentative identifications of light r-process elements have been made so far. One of the major limitations for the identification of heavy nuclei is incomplete or missing atomic data. While substantial progress has been made on lanthanide atomic data over the last few years, for actinides there has been less emphasis, with the first complete set of opacity data only recently published. We perform atomic structure calculations of neodymium (Z = 60) as well as the corresponding actinide uranium (Z = 92). Using two different codes [flexible atomic code (fac) and hartree–fock-relativistic (hfr)] for the calculation of the atomic data, we investigate the accuracy of the calculated data (energy levels and electric dipole transitions) and their effect on kilonova opacities. For the fac calculations, we optimize the local central potential and the number of included configurations and use a dedicated calibration technique to improve the agreement between theoretical and available experimental atomic energy levels (AELs). For ions with vast amounts of experimental data available, the presented opacities agree quite well with previous estimations. On the other hand, the optimization and calibration method cannot be used for ions with only few available AELs. For these cases, where no experimental nor benchmarked calculations are available, a large spread in the opacities estimated from the atomic data obtained with the various atomic structure codes is observed. We find that the opacity of uranium is almost double the neodymium opacity.
A Hunting Expedition For High-Order Hierarchies
Authors: Powell Brian P , Kostov Veselin B , Tokovinin Andrei 
Published: July 2023

ABSTRACT
Stellar hierarchical systems of high order containing more than three stars are rare and fascinating objects; their discovery and study highlight still unknown aspects of star formation and early evolution. We matched eclipsing binaries discovered by Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite with a Gaia catalogue of wide binaries and selected candidate quadruple (or higher order) systems based on excessive astrometric noise. A subset of 192 southern candidates located within 500 pc was observed by speckle interferometry, and we resolved for the first time 50 close pairs, confirming their high-order (from four to five components) multiplicity. These observations are reported, and some remarkable hierarchical systems are discussed.
The bright end of the galaxy luminosity function at z ≃ 7 from the VISTA VIDEO survey

Published: July 2023

ABSTRACT
We have conducted a search for z ≃ 7 Lyman-break galaxies over 8.2 deg2 of near-infrared imaging from the Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA) Deep Extragalactic Observations (VIDEO) survey in the XMM–Newton-Large Scale Structure (XMM-LSS) and the Extended Chandra Deep Field-South (ECDF-S) fields. Candidate galaxies were selected from a full photometric redshift analysis down to a Y + J depth of 25.3 (5σ), utilizing deep auxiliary optical and Spitzer/Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) data to remove brown dwarf and red interloper galaxy contaminants. Our final sample consists of 28 candidate galaxies at 6.5 ≤ z ≤ 7.5 with −23.5 ≤ MUV ≤ −21.6. We derive stellar masses of 9.1 ≤ log10(M⋆/M⊙) ≤ 10.9 for the sample, suggesting that these candidates represent some of the most massive galaxies known at this epoch. We measure the rest-frame ultraviolet (UV) luminosity function (LF) at z ≃ 7, confirming previous findings of a gradual decline in number density at the bright end (MUV &lt; −22) that is well described by a double power law (DPL). We show that quasar contamination in this magnitude range is expected to be minimal, in contrast to conclusions from recent pure-parallel Hubble studies. Our results are up to a factor of 10 lower than previous determinations from optical-only ground-based studies at MUV ≲ −23. We find that the inclusion of YJHKs photometry is vital for removing brown dwarf contaminants, and z ≃ 7 samples based on red optical data alone could be highly contaminated (≳50 per cent). In comparison with other robust z &gt; 5 samples, our results further support little evolution in the very bright end of the rest-frame UV LF from z = 5–10, potentially signalling a lack of mass quenching and/or dust obscuration in the most massive galaxies in the first Gyr.
Detectability of a phase transition in neutron star matter with third-generation gravitational wave interferometers
Authors: Mondal C , Antonelli M , Gulminelli F , Mancini M , Novak J , Oertel M 
Published: July 2023

ABSTRACT
Possible strong first-order hadron-quark phase transitions in neutron star interiors leave an imprint on gravitational waves, which could be detected with planned third-generation interferometers. Given a signal from the late inspiral of a binary neutron star (BNS) coalescence, assessing the presence of such a phase transition depends on the precision that can be attained in the determination of the tidal deformability parameter, as well as on the model used to describe the hybrid star equation of state. For the latter, we employ here a phenomenological meta-modelling of the equation of state that largely spans the parameter space associated with both the low-density phase and the quark high density compatible with current constraints. We show that with a network of third-generation detectors, a single loud BNS event might be sufficient to infer the presence of a phase transition at low baryon densities with an average Bayes factor B ≈ 100, up to a luminosity distance ($\mathcal {D}_\mathrm{ L} \lesssim$ 300 Mpc).
Constraint on the minimally extended varying speed of light using time dilations in Type Ia supernovae
Authors: Lee Seokcheon 
Published: July 2023

ABSTRACT
The Friedmann–Lemaître–Robertson–Walker model establishes the correlation between redshifts and distances. It has a metric expansion of space. As a result, the wavelength of photons propagating through the expanding space is stretched, creating the cosmological redshift, z. It also relates the frequency of light detected by a local observer to that emitted from a distant source. In standard cosmology (i.e. a constant speed light model), this relation is given by a factor 1/(1 + z). However, this ratio is modified in the minimally extended varying speed of light model (meVSL, c = c0ab/4) as 1/(1 + z)1 − b/4. This time dilation effect is detected as the observed rate of the time variation in the intensity of emitted radiation. The spectra of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) provide a reliable way to measure the apparent aging rate of distant objects. We use data on 13 high-redshift (0.28 ≤ z ≤ 0.62) SNe Ia to obtain b = 0.198 ± 0.415 at the 1-σ confidence interval. The current data is too sparse to give meaningful constrain on the meVSL and cannot distinguish the meVSL model from the standard model.
