Trench-parallel ridge subduction controls upper-plate structure and shallow megathrust seismogenesis along the Jalisco-Colima margin, Mexico
Authors: Prada Manel , Bartolomé Rafael , Gras Claudia , Bandy William L. , Dañobeitia Juan José 
Published: February 2023

AbstractThe parameters allowing for near-trench megathrust ruptures are debated and commonly involve the presence of site-dependent tectonic factors (e.g. rough subducting topography, amount of sediments), implying the need for direct geophysical observations. Here we use seismic imaging techniques to explore the mechanisms triggering shallow ruptures in the Rivera subduction zone, along the non-accretionary Jalisco-Colima continental margin, W Mexico, where three large (Mw~8) tsunamigenic megathrust earthquakes occurred in the last century. The seismic image reveals large interplate topographic variations morphologically alike to incoming trench-parallel ridges seaward of the study area. Ridge subduction only occurs along the southern non-accretionary margin of the Rivera system, where past earthquakes released large near-trench coseismic energy, indicating that subducting ridges enhance interplate coupling. Subducting ridges uplift the margin, causing upper-plate fracturing and low rigidity areas. Such elastic structure quantitatively explains the dynamics of slow and tsunamigenic ruptures in the past. We conclude that ridge subduction beneath the Jalisco-Colima continental margin promotes shallow seismogenesis and explains the large tsunamigenic potential of the area.
Linear Mixed-Model Analysis Better Captures Subcomponents of Attention in a Small Sample Size of Persons With Aphasia
Authors: Mohapatra Bijoyaa , Dash Tanya 
Published: February 2023

Purpose:
Although there are several reports of attention deficits in aphasia, studies are typically limited to a single component within this complex domain. Furthermore, interpretation of results is affected by small sample size, intraindividual variability, task complexity, or nonparametric statistical models of performance comparison. The purpose of this study is to explore multiple subcomponents of attention in persons with aphasia (PWA) and compare findings and implications from various statistical methods—nonparametric, mixed analysis of variance (ANOVA), and linear mixed-effects model (LMEM)—when applied to a small sample size.

Method:
Eleven PWA and nine age- and education-matched healthy controls (HCs) completed the computer-based Attention Network Test (ANT). ANT examines the effects of four types of warning cues (no, double, central, spatial) and two flanker conditions (congruent, incongruent) to provide an efficient way to assess the three subcomponents of attention (alerting, orienting, and executive control). Individual response time and accuracy data from each participant are considered for data analysis.

Results:
Nonparametric analyses showed no significant differences between the groups on the three subcomponents of attention. Both mixed ANOVA and LMEM showed statistical significance on alerting effect in HCs, orienting effect in PWA, and executive control effect in both PWA and HCs. However, LMEM analyses additionally highlighted significant differences between the groups (PWA vs. HCs) for executive control effect, which were not evident on either ANOVA or nonparametric tests.

Conclusions:
By considering the random effect of participant ID, LMEM was able to show deficits in alerting and executive control ability in PWA when compared to HCs. LMEM accounts for the intraindividual variability based on individual response time performances instead of relying on measures of central tendencies.
A Pilot Randomized Control Trial of Motor-Based Treatments for Childhood Apraxia of Speech: Rapid Syllable Transition Treatment and Ultrasound Biofeedback
Authors: McCabe Patricia , Preston Jonathan L. , Evans Pippa , Heard Rob 
Published: February 2023

Purpose:
Both Rapid Syllable Transition Treatment (ReST) and ultrasound biofeedback are effective approaches to treating childhood apraxia of speech (CAS). The purpose of the study was to compare outcomes from these two motor-based treatment approaches for school-age children with CAS.

Method:
In a single site, single blind randomized control trial, 14 children with CAS ages 6–13 years were randomly assigned to 12 sessions over 6 weeks of either of ultrasound biofeedback treatment (with a speech motor chaining practice structure) or ReST. Treatment was delivered at The University of Sydney by students trained and supervised by certified speech-language pathologists. Transcriptions from blinded assessors were used to compare the two groups on speech sound accuracy (percent phonemes correct) and prosodic severity (lexical stress errors and syllable segregation) in untreated words and sentences at three time points: pretreatment, immediately posttreatment, and 1-month posttreatment (i.e., retention).

Results:
Both groups showed significant improvement on treated items indicating a treatment effect. At no time was there a difference between groups. Both groups showed a significant improvement in speech sound accuracy on untreated words and sentences from pre to post and neither group showed an improvement in prosody pre–post. Changes to speech sound accuracy were retained by both groups at 1-month follow-up. Significant improvement in prosodic accuracy was reported at the 1-month follow-up.

Conclusions:
ReST and ultrasound biofeedback were equally effective. Either ReST or ultrasound biofeedback may be viable treatment options for school-age children with CAS.

Reliability, availability, and condition monitoring of inverters of grid‐connected solar photovoltaic systems
Authors: Sarita Kumari , Saket R.K. , Khan Baseem 
Published: February 2023

AbstractReliability, Availability and Condition Monitoring (RACM) evaluation has become a critical area of interest for researchers as the output power quality of a Photo‐Voltaic (PV) system depend on the reliability of its components. In this paper, the RACM of grid‐connected PV systems is presented. For this, the Reliability Block Diagram (RBD) technique along with the exponential probability distribution function is used. The main objective of this work is to identify the weakest subsystem of a system in order to enhance system reliability. The condition monitoring system will be helpful in avoiding the sudden breakdown and unexpected maintenance of the system. An elaborate analysis is presented for PV system beginning from the sub‐assemblies to the subsystems and then to the overall system. In addition, the subsystems are ranked based on their impact on the overall availability of the system. This is decided based on the availability importance measures. It is observed that the inverter forms the weakest subsystem in the solar system. The novelty of the proposed RACM method is that one can monitor the health status or useful life of the system regularly which is not yet explored in the literature. Most of the papers have considered that the components of PV systems are non‐repairable but in this paper, the redundancy concept is explored which helps in increasing the reliability and availability of the system. When the proposed method and the results obtained are compared to existing methods, it is discovered that the proposed work outperforms them.

Authors: Emilio Celotti , Tomas Roman , Adelaide Gallo , Andrea Natolino 
Published: February 2023

The treatment of white and red crushed grapes by high power ultrasounds (US) represents an emerging technology in winemaking. In 2019, it was officially recognized by OIV through the resolution n°616-2019, and it was also approved by European Union in January 2022. The US effect on extraction mechanisms was widely studied, but more researches are needed to better understand the ultrasound effect on some specific classes of grape compounds. This research aimed to highlight at laboratory scale some specific effects of ultrasounds on some key compounds of white and red grapes. The samples were sonicated at different frequency (20-30 kHz), time (1-10 min), and power (30-90%) technological conditions used in maceration, to obtain valuable information on potential technological transferability. Valuable results were obtained regarding the release of thiols from their precursors, and the reactivity changes of unstable proteins of white wines. The experimental trails on red grape varieties allowed a maintenance of free anthocyanins and no degradative effects were highlighted. Significant and valuable effects were determined also on the tannin polymerization, with an astringency decrease.
The sonication treatment of crushed grapes showed several chemical effects that contribute to decreasing the winemaking inputs and preserving the wine quality. The process conditions must be managed related to grape variety and ripeness for a precision winemaking.

Published: February 2023

ZusammenfassungUntersuchungen zeigen den großen Bedarf, existenzielle und spirituelle Bedürfnisse von akut oder chronisch erkrankten und vor allem von älteren schwerkranken und sterbenden Menschen wahrzunehmen und diesen kompetent zu begegnen. Spiritual Care wird zwar in Definitionen und Leitlinien als unverzichtbare Dimension von Palliative Care aufgeführt, es bleibt jedoch unklar, wie sie personell, strukturell und organisatorisch im Gesundheitswesen realisiert werden kann.Mit dem Modellprojekt „Spiritual/Existential Care interprofessionell“ (SpECi) wird als primäres Ziel die Verbesserung der Lebensqualität von Patient*innen/Bewohner*innen in der letzten Lebensphase verfolgt.An sieben Modellstandorten wurden Mitarbeitende in Krankenhäusern, Einrichtungen der Altenpflege, stationären Hospizen und Palliativstationen im Zeitraum von August 2021 bis Mai 2022 in einer 40-stündigen Qualifizierung in Spiritual/Existential Care geschult. Die geschulten Multiplikatoren (haupt- und ehrenamtlich Tätige) aus verschiedenen Gesundheitsberufen sollen befähigt werden, den Spiritual-Care-Ansatz in den alltäglichen Arbeitskontext zu integrieren. Die wissenschaftliche Begleitforschung zu den Wirkungsfaktoren der Multiplikatorenschulung in und damit auch durch Spiritual/Existential Care hilft, das vorliegende Modell zu evaluieren und weitere Maßnahmen zu einer Verbesserung der spirituellen Sorge um ältere und sterbende Menschen in den Einrichtungen des Gesundheitswesens zu entwickeln. Der Durchführungszeitraum des von der Stiftung Wohlfahrtspflege NRW geförderten Projekts reicht vom 01.10.2020 bis 30.09.2023. Aktuell befindet sich das Modellprojekt in der letzten von drei Befragungsphasen.

Zusammenfassung
Hintergrund Kontinuierliche periphere Nervenblockaden (Continuous peripheral nerve blocks, CPNB) werden am häufigsten zur perioperativen Analgesie bei chirurgischen Eingriffen eingesetzt. Alternative Indikationen wie die Behandlung tumorbedingter Schmerzen sind die Ausnahme, gleichwohl das Verfahren auch hier effektiv eingesetzt werden kann.
Fallbericht Bei einer 59-jährigen Patientin mit Bronchialkarzinom konnte der durch Metastasierung in der Tibia verursachte starke Schmerz mittels 28-tägiger CPNB des N. ischiadicus und des N. saphenus bis zu ihrem Versterben effektiv behandelt werden. Neben der Schmerzreduktion auf ein Minimum wurde die vorhergehende opioidassoziierte Vigilanzminderung verringert, wodurch sich die Lebensqualität in der letzten Lebensphase steigern ließ.
Schlussfolgerungen CPNB können auch in der Palliativmedizin regional begrenzte Schmerzen effektiv behandeln. Aufgrund der notwendigen Versorgungsstrukturen wird es aber ein Verfahren bleiben, das nur für einzelne Palliativpatient*innen sinnvoll und indiziert ist.

Published: February 2023

AbstractWe present the case of a 52-year-old with a history of aortic valve replacement and replacement of the ascending aorta with the graft inclusion technique presenting with dizziness and collapse. Computed tomography and coronary angiography revealed pseudoaneurysm formation at the anastomotic site causing aortic pseudostenosis. Due to severe calcification of the graft inclusion surrounding the ascending aorta, we performed a redo ascending aortic replacement using a two-circuit cardiopulmonary bypass to avoid deep hypothermic cardiac arrest.
Measuring farmers’ sustainable livelihood resilience in the context of poverty alleviation: a case study from Fugong County, China

Published: February 2023

AbstractIn recent years, the sustainable livelihood of farmers has been threatened by various events such as the COVID-19 pandemic, which has significantly impacted efforts to alleviate poverty. Therefore, it is vitally important to increase farmers’ sustainable livelihood resilience to enhance the stability and sustainability of poverty alleviation efforts. In this study, to scientifically measure and analyze farmers’ sustainable livelihood resilience, we designed an analytical framework that captures the characteristics of farmers’ sustainable livelihood resilience from the three dimensions of buffer capacity, self-organization capacity, and learning capacity. We then constructed an index system of farmers’ sustainable livelihood resilience and a cloud-model-based multi-level fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model. Finally, the coupling coordination degree and decision tree methods were used to identify the level of development and relationships among the three abovementioned dimensions of farmers’ sustainable livelihood resilience. A case study from Fugong County, Yunnan Province, China revealed that the spatial and temporal distributions of farmers’ sustainable livelihood resilience were heterogeneous across various regions. Furthermore, the spatial distribution of the coordinated development level of farmers’ sustainable livelihood resilience is similar to that of its overall level because the three dimensions of buffer capacity, self-organization capacity, and learning capacity interact with each other and develop synergistically, and the lack of any one of these affects the overall development of farmers’ sustainable livelihood resilience. In addition, the sustainable livelihood resilience of farmers in various villages is in a state of stable promotion, benign promotion, stagnation, mild recession, severe recession, or chaotic period, indicating a lack of balance in terms of the state of development. However, sustainable livelihood resilience will gradually improve in response to targeted support policies formulated by the national or local governments.
Inverse tunnel magnetoresistance of magnetic tunnel junctions with a NiCo2O4 electrode

Published: February 2023

Inverse spinel oxide NiCo2O4 (NCO) is known to exhibit ferrimagnetic characteristics and electrical conductivity. First-principles calculations predict NCO to be a half-metal with a negative polarization of −100%. In this study, we fabricated epitaxial NCO/MgO/Fe magnetic tunnel junctions by reactive molecular beam epitaxy and observed an inverse tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) effect of −19.1% at 14 K, indicating that NCO has negative spin polarization. The TMR ratio monotonically decreased with increasing temperature, which was attributed to the temperature dependence of the NCO surface magnetization due to the thermal excitation of spin waves. In addition, the TMR ratio displayed strong bias voltage dependence, decreasing to less than half of the maximum value at +20 and −30 mV. These findings support the use of NCO in spintronic devices and should lead to further developments in oxide spintronics.

Published: February 2023

We study the rotational dynamics induced by the recoil effect in diatomic molecules using time-resolved two-color x-ray pump-probe spectroscopy. A short pump x-ray pulse ionizes a valence electron inducing the molecular rotational wave packet, whereas the second time-delayed x-ray pulse probes the dynamics. An accurate theoretical description is used for analytical discussions and numerical simulations. Our main attention is paid to the following two interference effects that influence the recoil-induced dynamics: (i) Cohen–Fano (CF) two-center interference between partial ionization channels in diatomics and (ii) interference between the recoil-excited rotational levels manifesting as the rotational revival structures in the time-dependent absorption of the probe pulse. The time-dependent x-ray absorption is computed for the heteronuclear CO and homonuclear N2 molecules as showcases. It is found that the effect of CF interference is comparable with the contribution from independent partial ionization channels, especially for the low photoelectron kinetic energy case. The amplitude of the recoil-induced revival structures for the individual ionization decreases monotonously with a decrease in the photoelectron energy, whereas the amplitude of the CF contribution remains sufficient even at the photoelectron kinetic energy below 1 eV. The profile and intensity of the CF interference depend on the phase difference between the individual ionization channels related to the parity of the molecular orbital emitting the photoelectron. This phenomenon provides a sensitive tool for the symmetry analysis of molecular orbitals.
Narrow homogeneous linewidths and slow cooling dynamics across infrared intra-band transitions in n-doped HgSe colloidal quantum dots

Published: February 2023

Intra-band transitions in colloidal quantum dots (QDs) are promising for opto-electronic applications in the mid-IR spectral region. However, such intra-band transitions are typically very broad and spectrally overlapping, making the study of individual excited states and their ultrafast dynamics very challenging. Here, we present the first full spectrum two-dimensional continuum infrared (2D CIR) spectroscopy study of intrinsically n-doped HgSe QDs, which exhibit mid-infrared intra-band transitions in their ground state. The obtained 2D CIR spectra reveal that underneath the broad absorption line shape of ∼500 cm−1, the transitions exhibit surprisingly narrow intrinsic linewidths with a homogeneous broadening of 175–250 cm−1. Furthermore, the 2D IR spectra are remarkably invariant, with no sign of spectral diffusion dynamics at waiting times up to 50 ps. Accordingly, we attribute the large static inhomogeneous broadening to the distribution of size and doping level of the QDs. In addition, the two higher-lying P-states of the QDs can be clearly identified in the 2D IR spectra along the diagonal with a cross-peak. However, there is no indication of cross-peak dynamics indicating that, despite the strong spin–orbit coupling in HgSe, transitions between the P-states must be longer than our maximum waiting time of 50 ps. This study illustrates a new frontier of 2D IR spectroscopy enabling the study of intra-band carrier dynamics in nanocrystalline materials across the entire mid-infrared spectrum.

Published: February 2023

Background Despite the high prevalence, few studies have examined pornography consumption among emerging adults in Malaysia. The current study examined the attitudes, motivations, and behaviours related to pornography consumption and their association with sexual health. Methods Using a cross-sectional survey that was conducted online, a convenience sample of 319 Malaysians aged 18–30 years (M = 23.05, s.d. = 2.55) reported their attitudes and behaviours related to pornography consumption, including the degree of problematic consumption, and completed measures of sexual health. These included sexual satisfaction, awareness of sexual feelings, sexual self-reflection, sexual assertiveness, embarrassment during partnered sex, and genital image. To capture pornography genre preferences, participants also reported the keywords that they typically use to search for pornography. These open-ended responses were thematically coded. Results Between 60 and 70% of participants reported positive attitudes toward pornography and 81.2% (N = 259) reported lifetime intentional exposure to pornography. Gender differences were present in pornography consumption attitudes, motivations, preferences, and behaviours. Problematic pornography consumption, and not consumption frequency, was associated with poorer sexual satisfaction. Among women and not men, more frequent consumption was associated with more sexual self-reflection and positive feelings about their genitals. Sexual embarrassment was higher among women who consume pornography more problematically and among men who consumed pornography more frequently. Conclusions Pornography consumption attitudes and behaviours appear rather universal. However, the benefits of pornography consumption frequency and disadvantages associated with problematic consumption appear to be more relevant for women’s than men’s sexual health, specifically sexual self-reflection, genital image, and sexual embarrassment.
