The permanency of temporality: how grassroots festivals in Indonesia create places in informal settlements
Authors: Akbar Poeti Nazura Gulfira , Jachnow Alexander 
Published: June 2022

Purpose
This paper aims to investigate the impact of place-making on the quality of place through community-organised art festivals, with two case studies in urban informal settlements or kampungs in Indonesia.

Design/methodology/approach
Findings presented here are based on data collected and 39 in-depth interviews conducted in 2017 in two kampungs, namely, Kampung Dago Pojok, Bandung and Kampung Bustaman, Semarang.

Findings
This paper argues that place-making can happen through temporary practices, such as festivals, and improve the quality of place in informal settlements. It indicates and analyses the kinds of activities that increase the aesthetic value of spaces and build a positive image of the kampungs. The study concludes with the finding that place-making through temporary interventions has the potential to permanently change and reshape public space. At the core of these activities is the collective and voluntary work known as kerja bakti that is done by the kampung communities and the civil society organizations involved.

Originality/value
The paper offers a fresh perspective in the context of understanding the implications of place-making in the Global South. Assessing the development of public space, the paper provides insights into the use of grassroots festivals as a tool to permanently reshape urban spaces and engage the local community throughout the process.
Effects of abnormally shaped fruits and vegetables on consumer’s willingness to buy: a meta-analytic study
Authors: Campos Ana Carolina , De Oliveira Santini Fernando , Perin Marcelo G. , Ladeira Wagner Junior 
Published: June 2022

Purpose
The purpose of this meta-analytic study is to investigate the possible influence of food shape abnormality on consumer’s willingness to buy fruits and vegetables. This research also investigates some possible moderators (methodological, cultural, socio-economic and contextual) that could influence the direct effects.

Design/methodology/approach
This study applied the meta-analysis approach to understand the effect of food shape abnormality on willingness to buy fruits and vegetables. In this research, 16 empirical articles were examined, with a total of 54 effect sizes.

Findings
The results showed consistent negative effects between food shape abnormality and consumers’ willingness to buy fruits and vegetables. This study also found significant effects related to culture (Hofstede’s cultural dimensions) and to socio-economic (Human Development Index) moderators. The findings demonstrated that cultures with higher power distance levels promoted stronger effects in the relationship between abnormally shaped food and willingness to buy. Additionally, related to social–economy aspects of a nation, the negative effects between abnormally shaped food and willingness to buy are stronger in countries with low human development rates.

Practical implications
Public policymakers can benefit from the main findings by implementing interventions strategies and education campaigns based on different cultural dimensions. In cultures characterized by high levels of aversion to uncertainty, social communication campaigns can build trust and provide the consumer more knowledge about abnormally shaped fruits and vegetables, whereas in cultures characterized by low levels of masculinity, related to higher levels of sustainability, local producers can benefit from the “local food” positioning to sell abnormally shaped fruits and vegetables.

Originality/value
This research advances studies about consumer behaviour in relation to food waste, highlighting factors beyond aesthetic issues, such as a nation’s culture and its economic context. These results open the way for new work in this area.
Real-time contact angle’s measurement of molten solder balls in laboratory conditions
Authors: Dzivy Daniel , Pietrikova Alena 
Published: June 2022

Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to show a possibility to measure a change of a contact angle during the melting in real-time and to reveal significant factors of a wettability. Influence of the flux with combination of plasma on copper surface was investigated in experiment as well.

Design/methodology/approach
Laboratory equipment consists of heating and optical part that was developed and tested for real-time contact angle’s measurements. Solder balls based on Sn96.5/Ag3/Cu0.5 and Sn63Pb37 spread out on a copper substrate during a melting process. The wettability of pure copper surface was compared with copper surface treated with flux or combination plasma–flux. The contact angle and spreading rate of a melted solder balls observed by the charged-coupled device camera were analyzed in real-time and measured using the JavaScript.

Findings
Laboratory equipment allows for analysis of contact angle and spreading rate in real-time during the melting process. The contact angle decreases more noticeable after applying the plasma-flux treatment in contrast to no flux or flux treatment only. Using the plasma treatment before application of the flux improves the wettability and the effectivity of the flux activity on the copper surface during the melting process.

Originality/value
The interpretation of the results of such a comprehensive measurement leads to a better understanding of the mutual relation between flux and combination plasma–flux of the wetting during the melting process. The simple, cheap, fast and accurate laboratory equipment, which consists of the heating and the optical part, allows for the wettability evaluation of the melting process in real-time.
Assessment of the aggressive agents' penetration into concrete by non-destructive techniques
Authors: Khial Nassima , Chaid Rabah 
Published: June 2022

Purpose
Around the world, many structures are affected by pathological reactions between the concrete and the surrounding environment in which these structures are designed, these pathologies lead to compromise their serviceability. In this context, this paper aims to study the durability of concrete in different environments with non-destructive techniques, by studying its contamination by the aggressive agents’ penetration. And this, by evaluation of the influence of the durability indicator that is the absorption by immersion, on the mechanical properties (compressive strength, modulus of elasticity and damage), of specimens having undergone immersion/drying cycles, in different aggressive media (water, seawater and acids: sulfuric and acetic with a concentration of 5%).

Design/methodology/approach
Concrete specimens were manufactured in the laboratory, and then underwent immersion/drying cycles, in parallel, the weight gain of the specimens was carried out in the wet state after immersion and in the dry state after drying, and the ultrasonic speeds were also taken in a dry state. The results showed a decrease in the mechanical properties studied, namely, the compressive strength as well as the elastic properties (modulus of elasticity, damage) as a function of the increase in absorption, and that the weakest properties are those of test specimens submerged in water.

Findings
Non-destructive tests have shown that the parameters examined increase with the immersion/drying cycles, up to the fourth cycle. Beyond that, they drop gradually, and this is valid for four environments. This decline is due to the degradation of cement pastes exposed to water, seawater and acid attacks. This is explained by the greater or lesser dissolution of all the major elements making up the cementitious matrix (CSH, Ca(OH)2, CaO, SiO2, C3S, C2S, C3A, C2S) depending on the nature and concentration of the chemical substances evacuated. The results showed that the highest absorption rate and damage are those recorded for the specimen immersed in water, followed by that of the specimens immersed in acids, followed by that of the specimen immersed in sea water. The highest compressive strength and stiffness are those of the specimen immersed in sea water, followed by that immersed in acids, then in water.

Originality/value
The work developed aimed to study the durability of concrete, by addressing the study of the coupling absorption – mechanical characteristics of concrete, in different aggressive media (water, seawater and acids), to seek a relationship between these parameters. The tests provided are non-destructive tests, which consist of taking measures that do not damage the concrete. They allow indirect measurements of the mechanical properties of concrete as well as the monitoring of their evolution over time. They also allow having certain accuracy, because the measurements are taken at the same place.
Emerging relationships among soil microbes, carbon dynamics and climate change
Authors: García‐Palacios Pablo , Chen Ji 
Published: June 2022

Abstract

Soils represent the largest carbon (C) pool in terrestrial ecosystems. The preservation and increase of soil C play a significant role in the fight against climate change, and can deliver other key ecosystem services beyond climate mitigation.

Soil C responses to climate change are largely driven by soil microbial communities, but they still represent a major source of uncertainty when predicting soil C variation in space and time.

This Special Feature identifies emerging findings from soil microbial ecology and climate change research that can reduce such uncertainty if incorporated into theory and models. The contributions span from novel perspectives on the priming effect and soil microbial enzymes, to understudied key biomes for global soil C such as tropical forests, to plant inputs–microbial necromass–mineral interactions, to soil C and microbial responses to changing precipitation patterns and recent advances in trait‐based and soil C modelling.

Together, this collection of papers draws attention to novel frameworks and ideas that can pave the road for future research on microbial contribution to soil C turnover and storage under climate change.

Published: June 2022

AbstractHelicoverpa zea (Boddie) is a destructive agricultural pest species that is targeted by both Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) maize and cotton in the United States. Cry1A.105 and Cry2Ab2 are two Bt proteins expressed in a widely planted maize event MON 89034. In this study, two tests (Test‐I and Test‐II) were conducted to evaluate the relative fitness of Bt‐susceptible and ‐resistant H. zea on non‐Bt diet (Test‐I and Test‐II) and a diet containing a mix of Cry1A.105 and Cry2Ab2 at a low concentration (Test‐II only). Insect populations evaluated in Test‐I were two Bt‐susceptible strains and three Bt‐resistant strains (a single‐protein Cry1A.105‐, a single‐protein Cry2Ab2‐, and a dual‐protein Cry1A.105/Cry2Ab2‐resistant strains). Test‐II analyzed the same two susceptible strains, three backcrossed‐and‐reselected Cry1A.105/Cry2Ab2‐single‐/dual‐protein‐resistant strains, and three F1 heterozygous strains. Measurements of life table parameters showed that neither the single‐ nor dual‐protein Cry1A.105/Cry2Ab2 resistance in H. zea was associated with fitness costs under the test conditions. The single Cry protein resistances at a concentration of a mix of Cry1A.105 and Cry2Ab2 that resulted in a zero net reproductive rate for the two susceptible strains were functionally incomplete recessive or codominant, and the dual‐protein resistance was completely dominant. The lack of fitness costs could be a factor contributing to the rapid revolution of resistance to the Cry proteins in this species. Data generated from this study should aid our understanding of Cry protein resistance evolution and help in refining IRM programs for H. zea.

Published: June 2022

AbstractBackgroundThis study aimed to analyze the change of serum uric acid (SUA) level post peritoneal dialysis (PD), and the correlation between follow‐up SUA and prognosis in patients with PD.MethodsA total of 1402 patients with PD were evaluated. We graded SUA levels into four grades at baseline, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months, and 24 months post PD, and then compared all‐cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality among patients with different SUA grades at each time point. Kaplan–Meier and Cox proportional‐hazards regression models were used in the analysis.ResultsThe SUA levels were 7.97 ± 1.79, 7.12 ± 1.48, 7.05 ± 1.33, 7.01 ± 1.30, and 6.93 ± 1.26 mg/dl at baseline, 6, 12, 18, and 24 months, respectively. There was significant difference on all‐cause mortality among patients with PD with different graded SUA levels at 6 months post PD (p = 0.010), and the all‐cause mortality was lowest in patients with the grade of 5.65 mg/dl ≤ SUA <7.13 mg/dl.ConclusionSUA level decreased after PD during follow‐up. At 6 months post PD, the grade of 5.65 mg/dl ≤ SUA <7.13 mg/dl was appropriate for better patients' survival.
Choosing collection methods and sample sizes for monitoring bees
Authors: Tronstad Lusha , Bell Christine , Crawford Madison 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
Establishing protocols to sample and monitor bees is critical as pollinators decline. Bees are collected using passive and active methods, but choosing which method and how many samples to collect is challenging.
We collected bees in pan traps, vane traps and target netting (bumble bees only) at 96 locations across Wyoming from the sagebrush steppe to mountain meadows. We used power analysis to estimate the number of samples needed to detect a change in bee and bumble bee abundance and richness across elevations (1120–3308 m).
Vane traps and pan traps required a similar number of samples to detect a change in the abundance and richness of bees; however, vane traps caught four times more bees and 97% of genera compared to pan traps.
Vane traps required far fewer samples to detect changes in the abundance and richness of bumble bees compared to target netting. Pan traps caught so few bumble bees that we do not recommend using them.
We recommend using seven to nine vane traps to monitor the abundance and richness of bees and bumble bees, and supplementing bumble bee monitoring with target netting when possible.

Authors: Sikorski Bartosz L. , Hoffer Kenneth J. 
Published: June 2022

AbstractPurposeTo determine the utility of Split‐Window optical coherence tomography OCT (SW‐OCT) biometry in measuring ocular axial dimensions as well as imaging the intraocular lens (IOL) and posterior capsule in pseudophakic eyes.MethodsSixty‐nine pseudophakic eyes of 69 subjects were enrolled in the study. The results of SW‐OCT biometry implemented in the SD OCT device for posterior and anterior segment imaging (REVO NX, Optopol Technology) were compared with those obtained with the SS‐OCT‐based biometer IOLMaster 700 (Carl Zeiss Meditec). Differences in measurement values between the two biometers were determined using the paired t‐test. Agreement was assessed through intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) and Bland–Altman plots.ResultsThe correlation between measurements obtained with SW‐OCT and SS‐OCT was very high (ICC for: axial length (AL) = 1.000; anterior chamber depth (ACD) = 0.997; IOL thickness (IOL LT) = 0.997; central corneal thickness (CCT) = 0.987). The mean AL measurement difference was 0.003 ± 0.021 mm (the 95% LoA ranged from −0.04 to 0.05); the mean ACD difference was −0.009 ± 0.025 mm (95% LoA, −0.06 to 0.04); mean LT difference was 0.001 ± 0.021 mm (95% LoA, −0.04 to 0.04); and mean CCT difference was 1.4 ± 5.4 μm (95% LoA, −9 to 12).ConclusionThe study shows small, non‐significant differences between the biometric measurements obtained with REVO NX SW‐OCT and IOLMaster 700 SS‐OCT in pseudophakic eyes. However, SW‐OCT offered significantly lower ACD and LT measurement failure rates. With high‐resolution imaging, SW‐OCT enables accurate assessment of IOL position relative to the posterior capsule and visualization of capsular fibrosis.

Published: June 2022

AimsDrug hypersensitivity reactions (DHR) to antibiotics are common and a substantial issue in managing patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). This study aimed to assess the prevalence and clinical features as well as risk factors of DHR to antibiotics in CF.MethodA 20‐year retrospective study was conducted among 226 CF patients (100 children and 126 adults) attending our centre. The Swedish Registry for Cystic Fibrosis and electronic medical records enabled us to ascertain the number and routes of antibiotic courses. All suspected DHR were evaluated.ResultsThe patients had a total of 16 910 antibiotic courses, of which 6832 (40%) were intravenously administered. Of 226 enrolled CF patients, 70 (31%) developed overall 131 DHR to antibiotics. The prevalence of DHR increased with advancing age (P < .001). Beta‐lactams elicited 71% of all DHR and piperacillin was the most common single culprit (30% of intravenous and 24% of all DHR). Reactions were mild to moderate and mostly limited to skin; no severe cutaneous adverse reactions were observed. Additionally, anaphylaxis was rare, constituting 2.3% (3/131) of all DHR. Patients with DHR were exposed to significantly more courses of antibiotics than those without DHR (median 124 vs. 46, retrospectively, P < .001).ConclusionsDHR to antibiotics, particularly to beta‐lactams, are increased in CF patients, and associated with a higher number of cumulative exposures because of recurrent infections. However, severe cutaneous or systemic DHR, such as anaphylaxis, appear to be rare.

AbstractObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of maternal characteristics on the odds of severe maternal morbidity (SMM) through 42 days postpartum.Study DesignWe conducted a retrospective observational study of 77 172 births using birth certificate and insurance claims data from the Arkansas All Payers Claims Database, years 2013‐2017, to identify racial disparities associated with SMM for births between April 1, 2014, and November 19, 2017.MethodsMultiple logistic regression was used to examine the effect of sociodemographic factors and clinical comorbidities on the odds of SMM among non‐Hispanic white (“white”), non‐Hispanic Black (“Black”), and Hispanic women.ResultsThe rate of SMM was 227.41 per 10 000 births, with Black women (330 per 10 000 births; 95% CI: 296.16‐366.38), having a significantly higher rates than white women (197; 95% CI: 171.72‐225.84) and Hispanic women (180; 95% CI: 155.86‐207.54). After adjusting for maternal demographics, birth‐related clinical variables, and comorbidities, SMM remained higher among Black women (aOR 1.37; 95% CI 1.11‐1.70) relative to white women.ConclusionsComorbidities, socioeconomic factors, and other factors did not fully explain the Black–white disparities in SMM. Persistent disparities in the rates of SMM throughout 42 days postpartum among Black women relative to white women points to the need for higher quality, more equitable care for women of color in the fist months postpartum.
Intergenerational reproduction and self‐rated health in Canada
Authors: Veenstra Gerry , Vanzella‐Yang Adam 
Published: June 2022

AbstractIntergenerational processes in which the socioeconomic status of middle‐ and upper‐class parents is reproduced in their children have been extensively documented by social scientists. We mobilized a unique dataset, the Longitudinal and International Study of Adults (LISA) linked to income data from the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), to investigate the relevance of intergenerational socioeconomic reproduction for inequalities in self‐rated health in a national sample of Canadians aged 25 to 50. We found strong intergenerational elasticities implicating both parental education and parental family income in the acquisition of both personal education and personal family income. Parental education was not significantly associated with self‐rated health. Parental family income was significantly associated with self‐rated health among women only, partly explained by the socioeconomic status of the women themselves. These results suggest that intergenerational reproduction plays a small role in the generation of high levels of self‐rated health among Canadian women but not among Canadian men.

AbstractRenal cell carcinoma (RCC) features altered lipid metabolism and accumulated polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). Elongation of very long–chain fatty acid (ELOVL) family enzymes catalyze fatty acid elongation, and ELOVL5 is indispensable for PUFAs elongation, but its role in RCC progression remains unclear. Here, we show that higher levels of ELOVL5 correlate with poor RCC clinical prognosis. Liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization‐tandem mass spectrometry analysis showed decreases in ELOVL5 end products (arachidonic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid) under CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated knockout of ELOVL5 while supplementation with these fatty acids partially reversed the cellular proliferation and invasion effects of ELOVL5 knockout. Regarding cellular proliferation and invasion, CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated knockout of ELOVL5 suppressed the formation of lipid droplets and induced apoptosis via endoplasmic reticulum stress while suppressing renal cancer cell proliferation and in vivo tumor growth. Furthermore, CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated knockout of ELOVL5 inhibited AKT Ser473 phosphorylation and suppressed renal cancer cell invasion through chemokine (C‐C motif) ligand‐2 downregulation by AKT‐mTOR‐STAT3 signaling. Collectively, these results suggest that ELOVL5‐mediated fatty acid elongation promotes not only cellular proliferation but also invasion in RCC.
