AbstractAimsSotagliflozin (SOTA) as adjunct to insulin therapy improves glycemic control, reduces body weight and blood pressure, and increases time in range in adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D). SOTA demonstrated CV and kidney benefits in high‐risk adults with type 2 diabetes. These potential benefits using SOTA for T1D may collectively outweigh the risk of diabetic ketoacidosis. The present analysis estimated the risk of CVD and kidney failure in adults with T1D treated with SOTA.Materials and MethodsParticipant‐level data were used from the inTandem trials evaluating 2980 adults with T1D randomized to once‐daily placebo, SOTA 200 mg, or SOTA 400 mg for 24 weeks. For each participant, the cumulative risks of developing CVD and kidney failure were estimated using the Steno T1 Risk Engine. A subgroup analysis was performed in participants with BMI ≥ 27 kg/m2.ResultsSOTA significantly reduced the predicted 5‐ and 10‐year CVD risk in the SOTA 200 and 400 mg pooled group with a relative change in the SOTA group compared to the relative change in the placebo group of (mean [95%‐confidence interval (CI)]) −6.6 (−7.9, −5.3) % and −6.4 (−7.6, −5.1) % (p < 0.0001 for both) respectively. For the 5‐year ESKD risk there was a significant reduction with a relative change of −5.0 (−7.6, −2.3) % (p = 0.0003). Similar results were observed with the individual doses and in participants with BMI ≥ 27 kg/m2.ConclusionThis analysis provides additional clinical results that may positively balance the benefit/risk assessment of SGLT inhibition use in T1D.

AbstractIn today's global business competition environment, the significant changes in the market environment make it very difficult for supply chain enterprises to gain a place in the fierce market only by their strength. This article will do the following research work to effectively play the role of supply chain management. First, the concepts, and characteristics, related applications of supply chain information sharing (IS) and genetic algorithm back propagation (GABP) neural networks, are expounded. Then, the feasibility of applying BP neural network (BPNN) to evaluate supply chain IS is analysed. Next, the assessment indicator system for IS is constructed from four aspects: IS infrastructure, IS member characteristics, IS content, and the quality of supply chain enterprises. Finally, the principle and algorithm of BPNN are analysed, the network model is constructed, the BPNN process based on GA is designed, and every step in the process is explained in detail. The sample input is provided for the network model by obtaining and sorting data. The supply chain IS assessment model based on the GABP neural network is constructed. The results show that the assessment model of supply chain IS based on the GABP neural network has high accuracy, and the highest network accuracy reaches 95.01%, which proves that the assessment model based on BPNN has certain advantages for the supply chain IS of the financial industry.
Experimental study on cracking process and fracture properties of granite under mode I loading by acoustic emission and digital image correlation
Authors: Xue Fei , Lin Zhongqin , Wang Tianzuo 
Published: March 2023

AbstractTo explore mode‐I fracture process of hard brittle rocks, semi‐circular bending (SCB) experiments were performed with the concurrent monitoring of acoustic emission (AE) and digital image correlation (DIC). Experimental results revealed that all specimens exhibited ductile fracture characteristic and the fracture planes deviated from the ligament plane to different degrees due to interference from mineral crystals or pre‐existing weak surfaces within the intergranular boundaries. The whole cracking process can be divided into four stages: Microcrack initiation preparation, microcrack initiation and stable propagation, macrocrack formation and unstable propagation, and macrocrack coalescence. The onset of the microcrack initiation occurred at about pre‐80% load. The fracture process zone (FPZ) maintained a constant length as the crack propagated and the length of the traction free zone (TFZ) increased. The identified crack lengths based on the AE locations and energy statistical analysis consisted well with the crack lengths obtained from the DIC.

AbstractLocal retail stores are currently facing intense competition from both online retailers and large chain stores. An understanding of local retail store patronage (i.e., patronage of retail stores in one's own community) is essential to the survival and growth of local retailers. Drawing on Social Capital Theory, we theorize and show with store‐level survey data the influence of social capital (community attachment and reciprocity) on local retail store patronage in a large urban setting. We find that the impact of social factors differs for residents within the community compared to those outside of the community. We also demonstrate the importance of social factors in comparison to non‐social factors. These findings contribute to the literature by extending the impact of social capital on local retail store patronage beyond rural settings, providing insight into urban consumers' decision to patronize local retail stores, and highlighting the impact of community boundaries. These findings also generate practical recommendations for local merchants and stress the importance of building reciprocal relationships with local customers as well as varying communications across community boundaries.

Published: March 2023

SummaryAdditives and edible oil were essential in daily food cooking. The impact of additives on the formation of thermally induced trans linoleic acid (TLA) in peanut oil was systematically studied. The amount of TLA in peanut oil with or without additives increased with heating temperature and heating time. Notwithstanding soy sauce exhibited promotion effect of TLA (0–41.54%), other additives all had excellent inhibition effect (0–44.84%). The inhibition rates of additives increased with heating time within the test temperature and time. The inhibition rates of sugar (44.84%) and distilled water (43.44%) were higher than salt (29.89%) and vinegar (30.98%). In the process of thermal isomerisation of peanut oil, the content of TLA was not only affected by heating temperature and time, but also the result of the interaction of multiple ingredients of additives.

SummaryGenerally, gelatin‐based emulsion‐filled gels (EFGs) tend to liquefy and degradation under heat sterilisation. In this study, transglutaminase (TG) cross‐linking gelatin‐based EFGs with high thermal stability and gel strength were prepared. By analysing the rheological properties, thermal stability, structural changes and their underlying mechanisms, the impact of varying cross‐linking time on the thermal stability and gel strength of EFGs was explored. Results showed that enzymatic EFGs exhibited a higher gel strength with a high elastic modulus and low‐frequency dependence along with a prolonged TG cross‐linking time. The thermal denaturation temperature was increased by 21.87 °C after TG cross‐linking for 4 h compared to that of uncross‐linked EFGs. The surface of fully cross‐linked EFGs was smoother, and the surface voids were reduced. As the TG cross‐linking time increased, the inter‐molecular hydrogen bonds were weakened, the covalent bonds were strengthened and the triple helical structure was altered. After full cross‐linking, the original ordered structure of gelatin molecules was destroyed, the formation of crystalline structure was hindered and the interplanar crystal spacing was more tightly. This study provides a facile method for the preparation of gelatin‐based products with high thermal stability and proposes theoretical guidance for its practical application.
Cross‐national applicability of a game‐based cognitive assessment

Published: March 2023

AbstractNew technology has had a discernable impact on how organizations recruit and select potential employees. Game‐based assessment has emerged as a potential technology that can be used to enhance the assessment of individual differences and applicants' views of the selection process. However, studies investigating the psychometric properties and predictive validity of game‐based assessments are still lacking. This study investigated the structural equivalence of a game‐based assessment of cognitive ability across 228 Australians and 239 South Africans. A smaller sample of 115 South Africans also received work performance ratings to investigate the predictive validity of the cognitive assessment. Results of factor analysis supported a strong general factor of cognitive ability across the entire sample but only partial metric and scalar invariance across the two nations. The general factor of the game‐based assessment further revealed promising results in terms of its predictive validity for five broad dimensions of individual work performance.

AbstractBackgroundEffective post‐pandemic telehealth (TH) requires understanding patients' characteristics and perceptions, which have not been established in broader clinical services and are independent of TH appointments.AimsTo understand medical patients' characteristics and perspectives on using TH.MethodsGeneral medical patients in a statewide tertiary hospital in Victoria, Australia received a de‐identified survey independent of TH appointments during visits between July and November 2020. Patients' characteristics, access to devices enabling TH, knowledge of TH and willingness to use TH were analysed with descriptive statistics.ResultsOf 1600 patients, 754 (46.4% female, aged 72.0 years [59.0–83.0]) were able to complete the survey. The majority lived in metropolitan areas (74.4%), owned at least one TH device (98.1%) and had internet access at home (55.6%). About 52.7% of patients were comfortable with their devices, and 43.5% had successfully used TH. Although patients preferred face‐to‐face appointments (80.8%) and 41.4% agreed TH would be as good as in‐person appointments, 63.9% were interested in future TH appointments. Patients preferring face‐to‐face appointments were older (P = 0.008) and had lower education levels (P = 0.010), whereas patients preferring TH had video TH devices (P < 0.05), were comfortable with their devices (P = 0.002) and were willing to use TH (P < 0.05). TH cost saving was parking AU$10.0 [0.0–15.0], driving AU$5.8 [4.5–19.9], public transport AU$8.00 [5.0–10.0], taxis AU$30.00 [15.0–50.0] and time AU$153.2 [76.6–153.2].ConclusionFrom predominantly middle‐aged to older, metropolitan‐based general medical patients completing the survey, most patienpreferred face‐to‐face appointments to TH. Health services should subsidise those in need of TH and target the patients' barriers to effective TH use.

Published: March 2023

AbstractGenomic analyses commonly explore the additive genetic variance of traits. The non‐additive variance, however, is usually small but often significant in dairy cattle. This study aimed at dissecting the genetic variance of eight health traits that recently entered the total merit index in Germany and the somatic cell score (SCS), as well as four milk production traits by analysing additive and dominance variance components. The heritabilities were low for all health traits (between 0.033 for mastitis and 0.099 for SCS), and moderate for the milk production traits (between 0.261 for milk energy yield and 0.351 for milk yield). For all traits, the contribution of dominance variance to the phenotypic variance was low, varying between 0.018 for ovarian cysts and 0.078 for milk yield. Inbreeding depression, inferred from the SNP‐based observed homozygosity, was significant only for the milk production traits. The contribution of dominance variance to the genetic variance was larger for the health traits, ranging from 0.233 for ovarian cysts to 0.551 for mastitis, encouraging further studies that aim at discovering QTLs based on their additive and dominance effects.

Published: March 2023

AbstractAimUnderstanding the mechanisms underlying the structure and connectivity of ecological communities is a central issue in biogeography. Dispersal syndromes are tightly woven into organisms' life history seen across populations and communities, but measuring dispersal is still complicated in practice. We investigated the role of dispersal syndromes (here, associated with body size, adult flying ability and voltinism) to predict phylogenetic distance decay relationships (DDRs) of aquatic insect assemblages in dendritic stream networks.LocationDu River Basin, China.TaxonAquatic insects (Coleoptera, Diptera, Ephemeroptera, Hemiptera, Lepidoptera, Megaloptera, Odonata, Plecoptera and Trichoptera).MethodsWe applied multiple methods (i.e. deconstruction approach, null models, Mantel tests and partial Mantel tests) to enhance our basic understanding of phylogenetic distance decay patterns. To provide additional insights into correlates of phylogenetic dissimilarity between stream sites, we modelled potential dispersal routes based on overland, watercourse and cost distances.ResultsOverland distances were among the main correlates of phylogenetic distance decay in the stream networks studied, suggesting that aquatic insects disperse overland seeking for habitats suitable for survival and reproduction. However, local environmental filtering was generally more important for phylogenetic DDRs than geographical distances alone. The interaction between environmental vs. dispersal processes in driving spatial patterns of phylogenetic dissimilarity was contingent on different dispersal syndromes. More specifically, significant phylogenetic DDRs were detected only for subsets of large‐bodied, univoltine taxa with strong adult flying abilities, such as dragonflies.Main ConclusionsOverall, historical constraints affect the phylogenetic DDRs in aquatic insects. Dispersal syndromes associated with body size, adult flying ability and voltinism are key features underlying distance decay in phylogenetic assemblage similarity and the evolutionary legacies of aquatic insects in dendritic stream networks.

AbstractBackgroundMany learners struggle to productively self‐regulate their learning. To support the learners' self‐regulated learning (SRL) and boost their achievement, it is essential to understand the cognitive and metacognitive processes that underlie SRL. To measure these processes, contemporary SRL researchers have largely utilized think aloud or trace data, however, not without challenges.ObjectivesIn this paper, we present the findings of a study that investigated how concurrent analysis and integration of think aloud and trace data could advance the measurement of SRL and assist in better understanding the mechanisms of SRL processes, especially those details that remain obscured by observing each data channel individually.MethodsWe concurrently collected think aloud and trace data generated by 44 university students in a laboratory setting and analysed those data relative to the same timeline.ResultsWe found that the two data channels could be interchangeably used to measure SRL processes for only 17.18% of all the time segments identified in a learning task. Moreover, SRL processes for around 45% of all the time segments could be detected via either trace data or think aloud data. For another 27.17% of all the time segments, different SRL processes were detected in both data channels.ConclusionsOur results largely suggest that the two data collection methods can be used to complement each other in measuring SRL. In particular, we found that think aloud and trace data could provide different perspectives on SRL. The integration of the two methods further allowed us to reveal a more complex and more comprehensive temporal associations among SRL processes compared to using a single data collection method. In future research, the integrated measurement of SRL can be used to improve the detection of SRL processes and provide a fuller picture of SRL.
The Role of EEAS Chairs in Council Negotiations on Foreign and Security Policy Post‐Lisbon
Authors: Juncos Ana E. , Pomorska Karolina 
Published: March 2023

AbstractThis article examines the impact of the introduction of a permanent chair in the area of the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP). The Lisbon Treaty transferred the functions of the rotating Presidency to the High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, represented at lower levels by officials from the European External Action Service (EEAS). Whilst the permanent chair was intended to improve effectiveness in CFSP negotiations, recent deadlocks challenge such expectations. Drawing on sociological approaches, we show that the ability of EEAS chairs to uphold the impartiality norm has been undermined by the fact that they are perceived as ‘outsiders’ by national negotiators. This has had negative consequences on the chairs' capacity to fulfil key roles of organiser, broker and political leader and, in turn, negotiation dynamics. Based on these findings, we argue for the need to take norms and identity factors more seriously when designing institutions.

AbstractBackgroundHomebound status is a final common pathway for people with a variety of diseases and conditions. There are 7 million homebound older adults in the United States. Despite concerns regarding their high healthcare costs and utilization and limited access to care, the unique subsets within the homebound population are understudied. Better understanding of distinct homebound groups may enable more targeted and tailored approaches to care delivery. Therefore, in a nationally representative sample of homebound older adults we used latent class analysis (LCA) to examine distinct homebound subgroups based on clinical and sociodemographic characteristics.Materials and MethodsUsing data from the National Health and Aging Trends Study (NHATS) 2011–2019, we identified 901 newly homebound persons (defined as never/rarely leaving home or leaving home only with assistance and/or difficulty). Sociodemographic, caregiving context, health and function, and geographic covariates were derived from NHATS via self‐report. LCA was used to identify the existence of distinct subgroups within the homebound population. Indices of model fit were compared for models testing 1–5 latent classes. Association between latent class membership and 1 year mortality was examined using a logistic regression.ResultsWe identified four classes of homebound individuals differentiated by their health, function, sociodemographic characteristics, and caregiving context: (i) Resource constrained (n = 264); (ii) Multimorbid/high symptom burden (n = 216); (iii) Dementia/functionally impaired (n = 307); (iv) Older/assisted living (n = 114). One year mortality was highest among the older/assisted living subgroup (32.4%) and lowest among the resource constrained (8.2%).ConclusionsThis study identifies subgroups of homebound older adults characterized by distinct sociodemographic and clinical characteristics. These findings will support policymakers, payers, and providers in targeting and tailoring care to the needs of this growing population.
Antecedent goals for concealable stigma disclosure: The ironic effects of compassion
Authors: Foster Anthony M. , Talley Amelia E. 
Published: March 2023

AbstractDisclosure of a concealable stigmatized identity is perhaps one of the most difficult obstacles facing individuals who live with “discreditable” attributes. Although previous research suggests that antecedent goals, or the reasons why individuals disclose their stigma to others, have a fundamental influence on disclosure events and their subsequent outcomes, much of this work has focused on the perspective of the discloser, with little attention paid to the perspective of the confidant. The current experiment used the Actor‐Partner Interdependence Model to test the hypothesis that more salient compassionate, as opposed to self‐image‐focused, goals would be associated with more positive disclosure experiences, for both dyad members, as reflected in their self‐reports of improved affect, greater interpersonal closeness, reduced anticipated stigma, bolstered social support, and increased trust. Results indicated that, although focusing on compassionate goals during disclosure can foster feelings of interpersonal closeness and perceived trust, prioritizing the needs of one's confidant in conjunction with one's own needs may, at times, have ironic negative effects, including diminished positive affect. Overall, findings highlight the continued need to examine reciprocal influence processes in interpersonal disclosure contexts to better understand when, why, and for whom revealing a concealable stigma will yield benefit, rather than harm.
