MODULAR MANY-VALUED SEMANTICS FOR COMBINED LOGICS
Authors: CALEIRO CARLOS , MARCELINO SÉRGIO 
Published: April 2023

AbstractWe obtain, for the first time, a modular many-valued semantics for combined logics, which is built directly from many-valued semantics for the logics being combined, by means of suitable universal operations over partial non-deterministic logical matrices. Our constructions preserve finite-valuedness in the context of multiple-conclusion logics, whereas, unsurprisingly, it may be lost in the context of single-conclusion logics. Besides illustrating our constructions over a wide range of examples, we also develop concrete applications of our semantic characterizations, namely regarding the semantics of strengthening a given many-valued logic with additional axioms, the study of conditions under which a given logic may be seen as a combination of simpler syntactically defined fragments whose calculi can be obtained independently and put together to form a calculus for the whole logic, and also general conditions for decidability to be preserved by the combination mechanism.
The penetration of financial capital and the growth of private hospital groups in Europe: the case of Spain (1975–2022)
Authors: Vilar-Rodríguez Margarita , Pons-Pons Jerònia 
Published: April 2023

AbstractFrom the last decades of the twentieth century, above all, in the more service-oriented post-industrial economies, and in a context of debilitation of public health systems, health care became exponentially profitable, thereby attracting new types of investors. In fact, this new stage entails moving from the commercialisation of health care to its financialisation; that is, medical care becomes just one more financial asset and its price and quality are quoted on the stock exchange. This study intends to participate in the debate initiated by historians of medicine and economic historians with the aim of tracing capitalist traits and market participation in the evolution of health coverage, a process initially promoted by professional doctors who converted their consulting rooms into small clinics and larger hospital companies and which, over time, saw the incorporation of financial capital. In particular, this paper has two specific objectives for the case of Spain. First, to analyse the relationship of collaboration and/or competition between public and private hospitals under democracy and the factors that have conditioned this relationship. Second, to make an initial contribution towards understanding how, in this context, the large private hospital groups have been created in Spain during this period, especially in recent decades with concentration in the hands of financial capital, originating from both the traditional banking sector and investment funds.

What You See and What You Get: Direct and Indirect Political Dividends of Public Policies
Authors: Bueno Natália S. , Zucco Cesar , Nunes Felipe 
Published: April 2023

AbstractWe investigated both the direct and indirect political dividends of public policies by examiningMinha Casa,Minha Vida, a housing programme in Brazil that selects its beneficiaries by lottery. We surveyed the lottery participants and found that the winners were not more likely to support the incumbent politicians. Non-beneficiaries, a much larger group, were aware of the programme and thought well of it while the beneficiaries' responses to the programme were sometimes underwhelming. However, politicians considered the programme to be an electoral asset, and a difference-in-differences analysis of electoral results leveraging the roll-out of the programme across municipalities found that presidential and mayoral incumbent candidates performed better in localities that had implemented MCMV. Overall, when the beneficiaries formed a relatively small group, the benefits were conspicuous and the programme's objectives were widely supported. Government programmes can create electoral payoffs independently of how programmes are perceived or experienced by beneficiaries.

AbstractThis article presents reflections from 12 experts on language learners strategy (LLS) research. They were asked to offer their reflections in one of their domains of expertise, linking research into LLS with successful language learning and use practices. In essence, they were called upon to provide a review of recent scholarship by identifying areas where results of research had already led to the enhancement of learner strategy use, as well as to describe ongoing and future research efforts intended to enhance the strategy domain. The LLS areas dealt with include theory building, the dynamics of delivering strategy instruction (SI), meta-analyses of SI, learner diversity, SI for young language learners, SI for fine-tuning the comprehension and production of academic-level, grammar strategies at the macro and micro levels, lessons learned from many years of LLS research in Greece, the past and future roles of technology aimed at enhancing language learning, and applications of LLS in content instruction. This review is intended to provide the field with an updated statement as to where we have been, where we are now, and where we need to go. Ideally, it will provide ideas for future studies.
Delineating Agriculture and Industry: Reexamining the Exclusion of Agricultural Workers from the New Deal
Authors: Rader Katherine 
Published: April 2023

AbstractThe exclusion of agricultural workers from the 1935 Social Security Act and Wagner Act is frequently cited as one of the significant limitations of the New Deal social and economic program. Standard explanations for this exclusion point to President Franklin D. Roosevelt's and other New Dealers’ deference to the interests of powerful Southern Democrats in Congress, particularly their opposition to civil and labor rights. However, these explanations fail to recognize the important roots of this exclusion in earlier New Deal policy debates extending beyond the influence and interests of Southern Democrats. This article focuses on important political-economic debates that emerged in debates over the 1933 industrial and agricultural policy, which ultimately resulted in the exclusion of agricultural workers. Further, these debates and resulting policy changes shed light on the challenges and opportunities for building coalitions of labor unions and racial advocacy organizations to fight for broad economic restructuring. Exploring these strains of political-economic ideas provides a more complete explanation for agricultural workers' exclusion from the New Deal economic programs.
Increasing stability for the inverse source problem in elastic waves with attenuation
Authors: Yuan Ganghua , Zhao Yue 
Published: April 2023

AbstractThis paper is concerned with the increasing stability of the inverse source problem for the elastic wave equation with attenuation in three dimensions. The stability estimate consists of the Lipschitz type data discrepancy and the high frequency tail of the source function, where the latter decreases as the upper bound of the frequency increases. The stability also shows exponential dependence on the attenuation coefficient. The ingredients of the analysis include Carleman estimates and time decay estimates for the elastic wave equation to obtain an exact observability bound, and the study of the resonance-free region and an upper bound of the resolvent in this region for the elliptic operator with respect to the complex frequency. The advantage of the method developed in this work is that it can be used to study the case of variable attenuation coefficient.
Validation of the French version of the Emotion and Regulation Beliefs Scale (ERBS) and Dissociation Belief Scale (DBS)
Authors: Vancappel A. , Kerbage H. , Réveillère C. , El Hage W. 
Published: April 2023

AbstractIntroduction:Dissociation is a recurrent symptom of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and is associated with emotional dysregulation. Beliefs about emotions seem to be involved in emotional dysregulation but have not been studied in relation to dissociation. Likewise, there is currently little empirical evidence of beliefs about dissociation. The aims of the study were to validate psychometric tools assessing these beliefs, to assess their role in dissociation, and to explore the mediating role of emotional dysregulation and beliefs about dissociation in the relationship between beliefs about emotion and dissociation.Method:We recruited a sample from the general population (n=1009) and a sample of patients with PTSD (n=90). All participants completed self-report questionnaires to evaluate symptoms of PTSD (PTSD Checklist/Impact of Event Scale, PCL-5/IES-6), dissociation (Dissociative Experiences Scale, DES), difficulties in emotion regulation (Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale, DERS), beliefs about dissociation (Dissociation Beliefs Scale, DBS), and beliefs about emotion (Emotion and Regulation Beliefs Scale, ERBS).Results:The questionnaires used to assess the beliefs about emotion (ERBS) and dissociation (DBS) had good psychometric properties. Dissociation was positively associated with positive and negative beliefs about dissociation and with negative beliefs about emotions in both the clinical and non-clinical groups. The relationship between beliefs about emotions and dissociation was mediated by emotional dysregulation and positive beliefs about dissociation in both groups.Conclusion:The ERBS and DBS are effective tools to assess beliefs. Beliefs about emotion and dissociation seem to be involved in dissociative manifestations in both clinical and non-clinical individuals.
Moving forward with the loss of a loved one: treating PTSD following traumatic bereavement with cognitive therapy
Authors: Wild Jennifer , Duffy Michael , Ehlers Anke 
Published: April 2023

Abstract
Traumatic loss is associated with high rates of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and appears to inhibit the natural process of grieving, meaning that patients who develop PTSD after loss trauma are also at risk of experiencing enduring grief. Here we present how to treat PTSD arising from traumatic bereavement with cognitive therapy (CT-PTSD; Ehlers et al., 2005). The paper describes the core components of CT-PTSD for bereavement trauma with illustrative examples, and clarifies how the therapy differs from treating PTSD associated with trauma where there is no loss of a significant other. A core aim of the treatment is to help the patient to shift their focus from loss to what has not been lost, from a focus on their loved one being gone to considering how they may take their loved one forward in an abstract, meaningful way to achieve a sense of continuity in the present with what has been lost in the past. This is often achieved with imagery transformation, a significant component of the memory updating procedure in CT-PTSD for bereavement trauma. We also consider how to approach complexities, such as suicide trauma, loss of a loved one in a conflicted relationship, pregnancy loss and loss of life caused by the patient.

Key learning aims

(1)
To be able to apply Ehlers and Clark’s (2000) cognitive model to PTSD arising from bereavement trauma.

(2)
To recognise how the core treatment components differ for PTSD associated with traumatic bereavement than for PTSD linked to trauma where there is no loss of life.

(3)
To discover how to conduct imagery transformation for the memory updating procedure in CT-PTSD for loss trauma.
Effect of temperature and heat units on zoysiagrass response to herbicides during post-dormancy transition
Authors: Craft Jordan M. , Godara Navdeep , Brewer John R. , Askew Shawn D. 
Published: April 2023

AbstractIn the transition zone, turfgrass managers generally utilize the dormancy period of warm-season turfgrass to apply herbicides for managing winter annual weeds. Although this weed control strategy is common in bermudagrass [Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers.], it has been less adopted in zoysiagrass (Zoysia spp.) due to variable turfgrass injury during post-dormancy transition. Previous research reported that air temperature could affect weed control and crop safety from herbicides. Growth-chamber studies were conducted to evaluate zoysiagrass response to glyphosate and glufosinate as influenced by three different temperature regimes during and after treatment. A field research study was conducted at four site-years to assess the influence of variable heat-unit accumulation on zoysiagrass response to seven herbicides. In the growth-chamber study, glufosinate injured zoysiagrass more than glyphosate and reduced time to reach 50% green cover reduction, regardless of the rate, when incubated for 7 d under different temperature levels. When green zoysiagrass sprigs were incubated for 7 d at 10 C, the rate of green cover reduction was slowed for both herbicides; however, green cover was rapidly reduced under 27 C. After treated zoysiagrass plugs having 5% green cover were incubated at 10 C for 14 d, glyphosate-treated plugs reached 50% green cover in 22 d, similar to nontreated plugs but less than the 70 d required for glufosinate-treated plugs. Zoysiagrass response to glyphosate was temperature dependent, but glufosinate injured zoysiagrass unacceptably regardless of temperature regime. Diquat, flumioxazin, glufosinate, and metsulfuron + rimsulfuron injured zoysiagrass at 200 or 300 growing-degree days at base 5 C (GDD5C) application timings, but foramsulfuron and oxadiazon did not injure zoysiagrass regardless of GDD5C. The relationship of leaf density to green turf cover is dependent on zoysiagrass mowing height, and both metrics are reduced by injurious herbicides. Research indicates that glufosinate injures zoysiagrass more than glyphosate, and the speed and magnitude of herbicide injury generally increase with temperature.
Molecular mechanism of resistance to mesosulfuron-methyl in shortawn foxtail (Alopecurus aequalis) from China

Published: April 2023

AbstractShortawn foxtail (Alopecurus aequalis Sobol.) is an obligate wetland plant that is widely distributed throughout Europe, temperate Asia, and North America. In China, it is widespread in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River as a noxious weed in winter cropping fields with a rice (Oryza sativa L.) rotation. The acetolactate synthase (ALS)-inhibiting herbicide mesosulfuron-methyl has been widely used to control annual grass and broadleaf weeds, including A. aequalis, in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) fields, leading to the selection of herbicide-resistant weeds. In this study, an A. aequalis population, AHFT-4, that survived mesosulfuron-methyl at the field-recommended rate (9 g ai ha−1) was collected in Anhui Province. Single-dose testing confirmed that the suspected resistant AHFT-4 had evolved resistance to mesosulfuron-methyl. Target gene sequencing revealed a resistance mutation of Pro-197-Ala in ALS1 of the resistant plants, and a derived cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence marker was developed to specifically detect the mutation. A relative expression assay showed no significant difference in ALS expression between AHFT-4 and a susceptible population without or with mesosulfuron-methyl treatment. Whole-plant dose–response bioassays indicated that AHFT-4 had evolved broad-spectrum cross-resistance to ALS-inhibiting herbicides of all five chemical families tested, with GR50 resistance index (RI) values ranging from 21 to 206. However, it remained susceptible to the photosystem II inhibitor isoproturon. Pretreatment with the cytochrome P450 inhibitor malathion or the glutathione S-transferase inhibitor 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzoxadiazole had no significant effects on the resistance of AHFT-4 to mesosulfuron-methyl. To our knowledge, this study reports for the first time the ALS gene Pro-197-Ala substitution conferring broad-spectrum cross-resistance to ALS-inhibiting herbicides in A. aequalis.

AbstractDue to the complexity of 2D magnetic anomaly maps north of 18°S and the sparsity of seismic data, the tectonic evolution of the northern Lau Basin has not yet been unraveled. We use a multi‐method approach to reconstruct the formation of the basin at ∼16°S by compiling seismic, magnetic, gravimetric and geochemical data along a 185 km‐long crustal transect. We identified a crustal zonation which preserves the level of subduction input at the time of the crust's formation. Paired with the seafloor magnetization, the crustal zonation enabled us to qualitatively approximate the dynamic spreading history of the region. Further assessment of the recent tectonic activity and the degree of tectonic overprinting visible in the crust both suggest a complex tectonic history including a dynamically moving spreading center and the reorganizing of the local magma supply. Comparing the compiled data sets has revealed substantial differences in the opening mechanisms of the two arms of the Overlapping Spreading Center (OSC) that is made up by the northernmost tip of the Fonualei Rift and Spreading Center in the east and the southernmost segment of the Mangatolu Triple Junction in the west. The observed transition from a predominantly tectonic opening mechanism at the eastern OSC arm to a magmatic opening mechanism at the western OSC arm coincides with an equally sharp transition from and strongly subduction influenced crust to a crust with virtually no subduction input. The degree of subduction input alters the geochemical composition, as well as the lithospheric stress response.
Equinoctial Asymmetry in the Upper Ionosphere: Comparison of Satellite Observations and Models
Authors: Lomidze L. , Knudsen D. J. , Shepherd M. , Huba J. D. , Maute A. 
Published: April 2023

AbstractThe terrestrial ionosphere displays significant equinoctial asymmetry despite the upper atmosphere receiving similar levels of solar ionization energy at a given location and local time in March and September during similar solar activity conditions. This intriguing feature is not well understood or modeled, particularly in the upper ionosphere, and causes of the asymmetry are not fully established and quantified. Yet, their study is important to provide better insights into the atmosphere‐ionosphere coupling processes. Analysis of Langmuir probe data from ESA's Swarm B satellite at ∼525 km altitude reveals that the daytime electron density is larger for all latitudes during the March equinox than during the September equinox, while the electron temperature shows an inverted asymmetry except at low latitudes. Simultaneously obtained neutral density data from Swarm GPS accelerations indicate that the thermosphere is denser during the March equinox. The asymmetry seen by Swarm electron density observations is also present in electron densities obtained using GPS radio occultation measurements from the COSMIC satellites. Simulations were performed using physics‐based ionosphere models (SAMI3, WACCM‐X, and TIE‐GCM) to determine their ability to produce the observed asymmetry, understand the generation mechanism(s), and establish the relative role of physical drivers. Results produced by TIE‐GCM are closest to the observations when seasonally varying eddy diffusivity is considered in the model. The asymmetry produced by other models is noticeably weaker. Modeling of the asymmetry by SAMI3 driven with the TIE‐GCM neutral atmosphere shows that both neutral density and winds play a critical role, but the density has a greater effect.
A Long‐Term Experimental Investigation on the Impact of Rainfall on Short 6G D‐Band Links

Published: April 2023

AbstractResults from a long‐term propagation campaign are presented, whose main goal is to investigate the impact of rainfall on short terrestrial links operating at frequencies in the D‐band, to be possibly exploited for backhaul links in future 6G mobile networks. To this aim, data are collected at two sites with different climatic conditions (Milan, Italy; Athens, Greece) for 24 and 20 months, respectively, using two links (path length of 325 and 100 m, respectively), operating at 156 GHz carrier frequency. At the same sites, disdrometers are also installed to concurrently collect information on precipitation, not only in terms of rain rate but also of its microphysical properties. The received power data are carefully pre‐processed to exclude outliers and further elaborated to derive the rain attenuation. The data are afterward used to evaluate the accuracy of different prediction models, both on an event basis and on a statistical basis. Results indicate that the information delivered by the Drop Size Distribution allows a more accurate estimation of the rain attenuation and that the model currently adopted by the ITU‐R to predict rain attenuation statistics on terrestrial links (recommendation ITU‐R P.530‐18) yields a significant overestimation for such short links, due to the unrealistic value of its path reduction factor. On the contrary, the statistical prediction model proposed by Lin turns out to offer a very satisfactory prediction accuracy.

AbstractSeptins as GTPases in the cytoskeleton, are linked to a broad spectrum of cellular functions, including cell migration and the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, roles of SEPT11, the new member of septin, have been hardly understood in HCC. In the study, the clinical significance and biological function of SEPT11 in HCC was explored. SEPT11 was screened out by combining ATAC-seq with mRNA-seq. Role of SEPT11 in HCC was further investigated by using overexpression, shRNA and CRISPR/Cas9-mediated SEPT11-knockout cells or in vivo models. We found RNA-seq and ATAC-seq highlights LncRNA AY927503 (AY) induced SEPT11 transcription, resulting in Rho GTPase activation and cytoskeleton actin aggregation. The GTP-binding protein SEPT11 is thus considered, as a downstream factor of AY, highly expressed in various tumors, including HCC, and associated with poor prognosis of the patients. In vitro, SEPT11 overexpression promotes the migration and invasion of HCC cells, while SEPT11-knockout inhibits migration and invasion. In vivo, SEPT11-overexpressed HCC cells show high metastasis incidents but don’t significantly affect proliferation. Meanwhile, we found SEPT11 targets RhoA, thereby regulating cytoskeleton rearrangement and abnormal cell adhesion through ROCK1/cofilin and FAK/paxillin signaling pathways, promoting invasion and migration of HCC. Further, we found SEPT11 facilitates the binding of GEF-H1 to RhoA, which enhances the activity of RhoA. Overall, our study confirmed function of SEPT11 in promoting metastasis in HCC, and preliminarily explored its related molecular mechanism. SEPT11 acts as an oncogene in HCC, also draws further interest regarding its clinical application as a potential therapeutic target.
