Published: March 2023

AbstractThe low electrical conductivity of silk textile structures is a crucial factor limiting their practical applications. Silk‐based materials need modifications with different electroconductive compounds and structures. This report presents functionalization with silver nanowires (AgNWs) using polydopamine (PDA) as a linker. AgNWs create 3 and 10 g/m2 conductive networks on silk fabric. The surface resistance is estimated to be 1.5 × 105 Ω and 1.0 × 103 Ω, while volume resistance is 2.3 × 103 Ω and 6.8 × 102 Ω respectively to less and more developed AgNWs networks. AgNWs‐coated silk fabric is more thermally stable and provides thermal shielding. AgNWs functionalization makes silk fabric more hydrophilic due to PDA and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) influence. PVP acts as a capping agent during AgNWs synthesis and remains on their surface. Silk fabric functionalized with AgNWs reveals above 99.94% reduction of bacterial growth against Gram‐positive and ‐negative bacteria Staphylococcus aureus and Klebsiella pneumoniae, respectively. The bacteriostatic and biocidal coefficients are respectively above 7.2 and 3.3 for both bacteria types. AgNWs do not harmfully influence excellent silk mechanical properties. The specific strength does not change significantly and the elongation at break is even improved. The presented AgNWs functionalized silk fabric has useful physical, antimicrobial, and electronic properties for designing multimodal textile products.

Published: March 2023

AbstractFacile, lightweight, and sustainable aerogels have been a growing interest in their applications as support matrixes in the current environmental and energy challenges. In this study, a cellulose aerogel (CA) is fabricated using a homogeneous dispersion of cellulose fibers in an alkali‐urea aqueous solution and a carbon nanotube ink (CNT‐ink) to increase its electrical and conductive behavior in a potentiometric analysis. The physicochemical and morphological properties of the resultant composite aerogels (CA, CA1, and CA2) are investigated by thermal, water resistance, mechanical, FTIR, and SEM analysis. The prepared material exhibits a structured solid network that is visualized through SEM in which fibers are functionalized with CNTs. The results from compressive tests reveal that CA2 has excellent mechanical properties. A saturated CA with CNT‐ink can turn on a white LED and potentiometric measurements by preparing an aerogel‐based ion‐selective electrode (CA2 ‐ ISE) with a potassium ion‐selective membrane (K+ − ISM) reveal good sensitivity at room temperature for the detection in a specific electrolyte solution.
Invisible women: A psycho‐economic exploration of domestic and reproductive labor
Authors: Jain Sargam , Zarghamee Homa 
Published: March 2023

AbstractIn this paper, we examine the European devaluation of maternal and female domestic labor after the Industrial Revolution as a defensive byproduct of collective male annihilation anxiety due to the replacement of male manual labor by machines. We argue that an abject attitude towards women was codified in law, economic policy and social norms that still exist today, contributing to an ongoing, unconscious, structural degradation of female caregiving. We also suggest this stance towards female labor was exported to post‐colonial nations through the global adoption of the gross domestic product statistic, which excludes domestic and maternal labor from national accounting measurements. We draw on Julia Kristeva's theory of abjection, research from the fields of economics and policy analysis—and the burgeoning subfield of narrative economics—to suggest a reparative path forward for both men and women.

AbstractThe electronic structure of SiO2‐ versus Si3N4‐coated low nanoscale intrinsic silicon (Si) shifts away from versus toward the vacuum level Evac, originating from the Nanoscale Electronic Structure Shift Induced by Anions at Surfaces (NESSIAS). Using the quantum chemical properties of the elements involved to explain NESSIAS, an analytic parameter Λ is derived to predict the highest occupied energy level of Si nanocrystals (NCs) as verified by various hybrid‐density functional calculations and NC sizes. First experimental data of Si nanowells (NWells) embedded in SiO2 versus Si3N4 were measured by X‐ray absorption spectroscopy in total fluorescence yield mode (XAS‐TFY), complemented by ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS), characterizing their conduction band and valence band edge energies EC and EV, respectively. Scanning the valence band sub‐structure over NWell thickness yields an accurate estimate of EV shifted purely by spatial confinement, and thus the actual EV shift due to NESSIAS. Offsets of ΔEC = 0.56 eV and ΔEV = 0.89 eV were obtained for 1.9 nm thick NWells in SiO2 versus Si3N4, demonstrating an intrinsic Si type II homojunction. This p/n junction generated by NESSIAS eliminates any deteriorating impact of impurity dopants, offering undoped ultrasmall Si electronic devices with much reduced physical gate lengths and CMOS‐compatible materials.
The use of artificial intelligence to detect students' sentiments and emotions in gross anatomy reflections
Authors: Rechowicz Krzysztof J. , Elzie Carrie A. 
Published: March 2023

AbstractStudents' reflective writings in gross anatomy provide a rich source of complex emotions experienced by learners. However, qualitative approaches to evaluating student writings are resource heavy and timely. To overcome this, natural language processing, a nascent field of artificial intelligence that uses computational techniques for the analysis and synthesis of text, was used to compare health professional students' reflections on the importance of various regions of the body to their own lives and those of the anatomical donor dissected. A total of 1365 anonymous writings (677 about a donor, 688 about self) were collected from 132 students. Binary and trinary sentiment analysis was performed, as well as emotion detection using the National Research Council Emotion Lexicon which classified text into eight emotions: anger, fear, sadness, disgust, surprise, anticipation, trust, and joy. The most commonly written about body regions were the hands, heart, and brain. The reflections had an overwhelming positive sentiment with major contributing words “love” and “loved.” Predominant words such as “pain” contributed to the negative sentiments and reflected various ailments experienced by students and revealed through dissections of the donors. The top three emotions were trust, joy, and anticipation. Each body region evoked a unique combination of emotions. Similarities between student self‐reflections and reflections about their donor were evident suggesting a shared view of humanization and person centeredness. Given the pervasiveness of reflections in anatomy, adopting a natural language processing approach to analysis could provide a rich source of new information related to students' previously undiscovered experiences and competencies.
Trolling CNN and Fox News on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter

Published: March 2023

AbstractOnline trolling, disinformation, and deception are posing an existential threat to democracy. Informed by the online disinhibition theory and research on the ideological asymmetry between Democrats and Republicans, we examined how the extent and style of trolling varies across social media platforms, by analyzing comments on posts by two media channels (CNN and Fox News) on three social media platforms (Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter). We found differences in the style and extent of trolling across platforms and between media channels, with more trolling on articles posted by Fox News than by CNN, and a different trolling style on Twitter than Facebook or Instagram. Our study demonstrates a delicate balance between the socio‐technical factors that are enabling and hindering trolling. While some platforms and government agencies believe in removing anonymity to regulate online harm, this paper makes a significant contribution against that view.
Multichromophore Integrated Panchromatic Azaborondipyrromethenes: Synthesis, Characterization, and Exploring the Role of AzaBODIPY as an Energy and Electron Relay in Photoinduced Processes

Published: March 2023

AbstractPanchromatic azaborondipyrromethenes directly connected with N,N‐ditolylaniline (TPA) and naphthalene (Naph) at 1,7‐ and/or 3,5‐positions of the azaBODIPY platform, 1, 2, and 3, were synthesized and the roles of the individual chromophore constituents in the photo‐induced energy and electron transfer processes have been investigated. Optical absorption studies have indicated that integrating the complementary absorbers, naphthalene and TPA moieties, into the azaBODIPY core yielded broad‐band capturing dyes with the absorption ranging from 250–1000 nm. Parallel electrochemical studies revealed that TPA moiety in 1 and 2 is easier to oxidize when compared to azaBODIPY moiety, which are in congruent with the computational studies indicating that TPA moiety would behave as an electron donor and azaBODIPY as an acceptor in PET processes. Steady‐state fluorescence studies indicated that the photo‐excitation of the TPA moiety in 2 resulted in the occurrence of PET from 1TPA* to azaBODIPY generating (TPA)2+⋅‐(azaBODIPY)−⋅ while that of naphthalene in 3 resulted in PEnT from 1(naphthalene)* to azaBODIPY forming (Naph)2‐1(azaBODIPY)*. Interestingly, in 1, excitation of naphthalene moiety resulted in sequential PEnT from 1(naphthalene)* to azaBODIPY followed by the PET from TPA to 1(azaBODIPY)* generating a charge‐separated state, (TPA)2+⋅‐(azaBODIPY)−⋅‐(Naph)2 Fluorescence lifetime studies have indicated that the electron and energy transfer processes occurred in nanosecond time scales.
Research on social attention in autism and the challenges of the research domain criteria (RDoC) framework
Authors: Mundy Peter 
Published: March 2023

AbstractThe fuzzy nature of categories of psychopathology, such as autism, leads to significant research challenges. Alternatively, focusing research on the study of a common set of important and well‐defined psychological constructs across psychiatric conditions may make the fundamental etiological processes of psychopathology easier to discern and treat (Cuthbert, 2022). The development of the research domain criteria (RDoC) framework is designed to guide this new research approach (Insel et al., 2010). However, progress in research may be expected to continually refine and reorganize the understanding of the specifics of these mental processes (Cuthbert & Insel, 2013). Moreover, knowledge gleaned from the study of both normative and atypical development can be mutually informative in the evolution of our understanding of these fundamental processes. A case in point is the study of social attention. This Autism 101 commentary provides an educational summary of research over the last few decades indicates that social attention is major construct in the study of human social‐cognitive development, autism and other forms of psychopathology. The commentary also describes how this research can inform the Social Process dimension of the RDoC framework.

AbstractDesigning low‐cost carbon‐based anode with excellent electrochemical performance plays a vital role in the commercialization of sodium‐ion batteries (SIBs). However, its limited theoretical specific capacity and poor rate performance seriously affect its practical applications. Simply adjusting the morphological structure or component‐based regulation strategies cannot usually solve all problems efficiently. In response, one‐dimensional Sb2S3 nanorods with the longitudinal distribution are used as a sacrificial template in this work by a simple electrostatic spinning method. After heat treatment, abundant longitudinal distribution channels within flexible carbon nanofibers are obtained. Meanwhile, Sb ultra‐small nanoparticles can be in‐situ embedded within N, S co‐doped carbon matrix (N,S,Sb‐CNFs). Owing to the N, S, Sb co‐modification and the well‐designed one‐dimensional mesoporous carbon substrate, the N,S,Sb‐CNFs hybrids achieve better interfacial contact with electrolyte, ameliorated electrical conductivity and distinct kinetic promotion. Furthermore, the undesired volume expansion of Sb nanoparticles during sodiation can also be efficiently suppressed. As expected, the N,S,Sb‐CNFs based half‐cell remains a reversible capacity of 287.8 mAh g−1 at 1 A g−1 even after 3500 cycles and harvests a capacity of 239.6 mAh g−1 at a high current density of 4 A g−1, demonstrating excellent cycling stability and rate performance. Furthermore, the assembled flexible full‐cell matched with the Na3V2(PO4)2O2F cathode also obtains superior bending resistance and continuous discharge ability during the deformation process, proving the potential of the flexible N,S,Sb‐CNFs electrode in practical applications.
Toward a standardized evaluation of imputation methodology
Authors: Oberman Hanne I. , Vink Gerko 
Published: March 2023

AbstractDeveloping new imputation methodology has become a very active field. Unfortunately, there is no consensus on how to perform simulation studies to evaluate the properties of imputation methods. In part, this may be due to different aims between fields and studies. For example, when evaluating imputation techniques aimed at prediction, different aims may be formulated than when statistical inference is of interest. The lack of consensus may also stem from different personal preferences or scientific backgrounds. All in all, the lack of common ground in evaluating imputation methodology may lead to suboptimal use in practice. In this paper, we propose a move toward a standardized evaluation of imputation methodology. To demonstrate the need for standardization, we highlight a set of possible pitfalls that bring forth a chain of potential problems in the objective assessment of the performance of imputation routines. Additionally, we suggest a course of action for simulating and evaluating missing data problems. Our suggested course of action is by no means meant to serve as a complete cookbook, but rather meant to incite critical thinking and a move to objective and fair evaluations of imputation methodology. We invite the readers of this paper to contribute to the suggested course of action.
Thermoluminescence properties of the rock naturally annealed for thousands of years by flames from the earth's inner layers
Authors: Toktamiş Dilek 
Published: March 2023

AbstractThe gas leak in Chimaera near Çıralı, Antalya, has been active for thousands of years. It is also known to be the source of the first Olympic flame in the Hellenistic period. The sample taken from the Chimaere seepage annealed for thousands of years was determined to be calcite‐magnesian (Ca, Mg)O3. In this study, thermoluminescence (TL) properties of calcite‐magnesian annealed for thousands of years in the fire caused by methane gas were investigated for particle size, dose–response, heating rate, and fading experiments. It exhibits a clear TL glow curve with two distinct peaks positioned at 160 and 330°C, and its shape is not affected by variation in applied dose and reproduciility of experiment. There is a wide linear relationship between TL output and applied dose up to 614 Gy. Although the positions of the TL peaks are stable with the cycle of measurement, a poor reusability was observed in terms of the area under the TL glow curve and peak intensity.

AbstractLead halide perovskite quantum dots (QDs) with high fluorescence efficiency and high color purity have a broad application prospect in the field of backlight display, but poor stability has been a key factor limiting their commercialization. Herein, we successfully synthesized CsPbBr3 QDs‐KIT‐6 (CsPbBr3‐K6) composite by using KIT‐6 molecular sieve as the limited template with a simple high temperature solid‐phase method. Further, the semi‐protected CsPbBr3 QDs in KIT‐6 frame will spontaneously hydrolyze when encountering water, and finally the double‐encapsulated CsPbBr3 QDs‐KIT‐6@PbBr(OH) (CsPbBr3‐K6@PbBr(OH)) composite are obtained. CsPbBr3‐K6@PbBr(OH) composite shows excellent green emission properties, including a photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) (~73%) and a narrow emission linewidth of 25 nm. It is interesting that, the composite has excellent stability, including water stability without attenuation of fluorescence intensity after soaking in water for 60 days, thermal stability of 120°C heating–cooling cycle, and excellent optical stability without attenuation under continuous ultraviolet irradiation.

Published: March 2023

AbstractIn order to achieve the long‐term management of endometriosis, a more economical and environmentally friendly material, ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA), was used to prepare a intravaginal ring with anastrozole (ATZ). This paper has compared the pharmacokinetic parameters with oral tablets (Aida®) in mini pigs and evaluated the uterine targeted effect and mucosal irritation of the ring. A bioassay method was developed and validated for the determination of ATZ in mini pigs. The determination of ATZ was achieved by LC–MS/MS using terfenadine as the internal standard. Separation was achieved on a Kinetex‐C18 110A chromatographic column (3 × 30 mm, 2.6 μm; Phenomenex) with a gradient mobile phase consisting of methanol (0.1% formic acid) and water (0.1% formic acid). The method has been proved to be scientific and sensitive through methodological validation and can be easily and quickly applied to the determination of the content of anastrozole in mini pigs. The pharmacokinetic test results show that there was no significant difference in pharmacokinetic parameters between the two formulations. The intravaginal ring has a passive targeting effect on the uterus, and its mucosal irritation is acceptable. The intravaginal ring provides a new method for long‐term management of endometriosis.

AbstractIn the oil and gas industry, adopting policies that can reduce the negative environmental effect is vital. Environmentally Sustainable Supply Chain Management (ESSCM) is an approach to carrying out Supply Chain Management (SCM) in an eco‐friendly manner and according to environmental requirements. There are different environmental policies that companies can apply based on their resource availability. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the impact of hard dimensions on Environmentally Adaptive (EA) and Mitigated Adverse Eco‐Effect (MAE) policies in the oil and gas industry. To rank the data, Bayesian Best‐Worst Method (BWM) and Ordinal Priority Approach (OPA) have been applied. Cause‐and‐effect relationships are then calculated by employing the Decision‐Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) technique. The results indicate that the ranking of the hard dimensions varies based on the companies' business policies and their new product/technology development projects. In other words, the findings of this research demonstrate that ‘innovation’ is the crucial dimension in companies that are focussed on developing eco‐friendly products while ‘technologies for cleaner production’ is the most important dimension in the companies attempting to reduce destructive consequences on the environment. In both types of the company policies, ‘lean manufacturing’, ‘total quality management’, and ‘institutional pressures’ are the key dimensions for a successful implementation of ESSCM while the least important dimensions include ‘supplier relationship management’, ‘green purchasing’, and ‘green logistics’. The findings of this research can assist the decision‐makers in the oil and gas sector in prioritising and identifying the interrelationship of the dimensions that significantly impact the ESSCM.
What digital‐enabled dynamic capabilities support the circular economy? A multiple case study approach

Published: March 2023

AbstractCircular economy and digital technologies are crucial topics in the current academic and managerial debates. It is largely recognised that—although related to different paradigms—digital technologies could support the industrial circular transition, fostering the adoption of circular economy practices. So far, the relationship has been studied by directly linking the adoption of digital technologies to the implementation of circular economy practices; however, indications for practitioners are unclear. There is thus the need to investigate the relationship at a deeper level. This paper aims at contributing to the debate by adopting a dynamic capabilities theory perspective. By employing an explorative multiple case study methodology and based on an abductive logic, this study investigates 11 Northern‐Italy industrial firms in order to understand the transformations that occurred following the adoption of digital technologies and how these transformations supported the adoption of circular economy practices. The results shed preliminary light on which dynamic capabilities—sensing, seizing and transforming, and their related microfoundations—can be enabled by the different digital technologies and how these capabilities and microfoundations support the circular transition. The study thus provides a first‐of‐a‐kind investigation and suggests propositions for further research to better deepen the knowledge of digital‐enabled dynamic capabilities supporting industrial circular economy.
