Satisfaction as a key antecedent for word of mouth and an essential mediator for service quality and brand trust in international education
Authors: Stribbell Howard , Duangekanong Somsit 
Published: December 2022

AbstractPositive word of mouth in the form of recommendations and referrals is the most effective way to recruit new students. The purpose of this study was to determine how service quality, parental satisfaction, and brand trust affect the likelihood of parents recommending their child’s international school to family and friends and to test the mediating effect of parent satisfaction. The study developed a contextually relevant and reliable survey to measure the perception of 458 Generation X parents at The International School of Macao. Scale items from the literature were contextualized for education. Confirmatory factor analysis was used to confirm convergent and discriminant validity. Structural equation modeling was used to determine the relationships. It was found that parent satisfaction had the biggest influence on the likelihood of parents recommending their child’s international school by word of mouth. While the service quality that parents experience and the trust that they have in the school brand had an impact on satisfaction, it was found that parent satisfaction fully mediates the relationship between service quality and word of mouth as well as the relationship between brand trust and word of mouth. Schools must ensure that current parents are satisfied to cultivate positive word of mouth through recommendations and referrals to prospective parents. Previous studies have demonstrated the mediating role of satisfaction, but no significant studies have empirically tested the same in K-12 international contexts. The study contributes to the existing field of knowledge by providing support to the contention that satisfaction mediates the relationships between service quality, brand trust, and word of mouth.
Not Illegal: The SolarWinds Incident and International Law
Authors: Eichensehr Kristen E 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
In 2021, the USA and other governments formally blamed Russia for a wide-ranging hacking campaign that breached the update process for SolarWinds Orion network monitoring software and used that access to compromise numerous government agencies, companies and other entities. Despite denouncing Russia’s cyber espionage and imposing sanctions, the USA did not call Russia’s actions illegal as a matter of international law – and for good reason. Based on the publicly available facts, this article argues that the SolarWinds incident likely did not run afoul of international law as it currently stands. The article considers the prohibitions on the use of force and intervention, emerging rules with respect to violations of sovereignty and due diligence, and international human rights law, and it concludes with some reflections on the role of states and scholars in decisions about whether to close gaps in international law.
Historical mobility, creative output, and age of prominent visual artists, composers, and authors
Authors: O'Hagan John 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
This paper is a review article of the extensive literature that has appeared in the past 15 years or so examining the historical long-term mobility of prominent visual artists, composers, and authors. The extent to which such mobility is linked to location and age is one key focus of the paper. The extent to which creative output is linked also to age is examined. Some of the papers, using very different methodologies, attempt to estimate the boost to creative output arising from such mobility, especially where it led to clustering.

Published: December 2022

Abstract
This work demonstrated that melatonin increases continuously in seeds, particularly seed coats, during berry ripening. Exogenous melatonin treatments significantly increased the proanthocyanidin (PA) content, partially through ethylene signaling, in seed coats. VvMYB14 expression exhibited patterns similar to melatonin accumulation over time, which was largely induced by melatonin treatment in seed coats during berry ripening. Additionally, VvMYB14 bound to the MBS element of the VvMYBPA1 promoter to activate expression. VvMYB14 overexpression largely upregulated expression of VvMYBPA1, VvMYBPA2 and VvLAR1 and increased the PA content in grape seed-derived calli. Similar increases in AtTT2 and AtBAN expression and PA content were found in VvMYB14-overexpressing Arabidopsis seeds. It was also observed that VvMYB14 overexpression increased ethylene production and thereby induced expression of VvERF104, which bound to the ERF element of the VvMYBPA2 promoter and activated its expression. Additionally, VvERF104 suppression reduced the VvMYB14 overexpression-induced increases in expression of VvMYBPA2 and VvLAR1 and PA content. Further experiments revealed that melatonin-induced increases in the expression of VvMYBPA1, VvMYBPA2, VvERF104 and VvLAR1 and PA accumulation were significantly reduced in VvMYB14-suppressing grape calli and leaves. Collectively, VvMYB14 mediates melatonin-induced PA biosynthesis by directly transactivating VvMYBPA1 expression and indirectly upregulating VvMYBPA2 expression via VvERF104.

Accelerating BAO scale fitting using Taylor series
Authors: Hansen Matthew T , Krolewski Alex , Slepian Zachary 
Published: December 2022

ABSTRACT
The Universe is currently undergoing accelerated expansion driven by dark energy. Dark energy’s essential nature remains mysterious: one means of revealing it is by measuring the Universe’s size at different redshifts. This may be done using the baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) feature, a standard ruler in the galaxy two-point correlation function (2PCF). In order to measure the distance scale, one dilates and contracts a template for the 2PCF in a fiducial cosmology, using a scaling factor α. The standard method for finding the best-fitting α is to compute the likelihood over a grid of roughly 100 values of it. This approach is slow; in this work, we propose a significantly faster way. Our method writes the 2PCF as a polynomial in α by Taylor-expanding it about α = 1, exploiting that we know the fiducial cosmology sufficiently well that α is within a few per cent of unity. The likelihood resulting from this expansion may then be analytically solved for the best-fitting α. Our method is 48–85× faster than a directly comparable approach in which we numerically minimize α, and ∼12 000× faster than the standard iterative method. Our work will be highly enabling for upcoming large-scale structure redshift surveys such as that by Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument.

Published: December 2022

AbstractMigratory bird populations can be limited by events in disparate parts of the world. Birds wintering in tropical regions are facing rapid habitat loss, climate change, and intensive agricultural regimes, potentially contributing to population declines. However, an understanding of basic nonbreeding ecology of species, such as habitat and space use, is critical for determining if this is the case. Populations of the nocturnal/crepuscular Eastern Whip-poor-will (Antrostomus vociferus) have declined by 70% since the 1960’s, yet data on the species are sparse outside of the breeding season. We extracted data from 41 archival GPS tags deployed on whip-poor-wills and estimated nonbreeding home ranges and land covers used. We used satellite imagery and stable carbon and nitrogen isotope values from claws grown during the nonbreeding season to analyze how land cover and habitat moisture impacted home range size and relative trophic level. Forest was by far the most prevalent land cover used by whip-poor-wills, occurring in all home ranges and accounting for &gt;80% of diurnal roosting points. We found that less forest, the presence of agriculture, and more edge (irrespective of land cover) were associated with larger home ranges. Stable isotope values differed by broadscale ecoregion but not local land cover characteristics in our study, indicating that regional idiosyncrasies or broadscale processes can be more important in determining stable isotope ratios. Our findings suggest that the loss, fragmentation, and replacement of forest by agriculture in the core of the whip-poor-will’s nonbreeding range may represent a threat to the species, as they rely heavily upon forest, and appear to alter space use in response to changes in forest cover.

Habitats Within the Plant Root Differ in Bacterial Network Topology and Taxonomic Assortativity

Published: December 2022

The root microbiome is composed of distinct epiphytic (rhizosphere) and endophytic (endosphere) habitats. Differences in abiotic and biotic factors drive differences in microbial community diversity and composition between these habitats, though how they shape the interactions among community members is unknown. Here, we coupled a large-scale characterization of the rhizosphere and endosphere bacterial communities of 30 plant species across two watering treatments with co-occurrence network analysis to understand how root habitats and soil moisture shape root bacterial network properties. We used a novel bootstrapping procedure and null network modeling to overcome some of the limitations associated with microbial co-occurrence network construction and analysis. Endosphere networks had elevated node betweenness centrality versus the rhizosphere, indicating greater overall connectivity among core bacterial members of the root endosphere. Taxonomic assortativity was higher in the endosphere, whereby positive co-occurrence was more likely between bacteria within the same phylum while negative co-occurrence was more likely between bacterial taxa from different phyla. This taxonomic assortativity could be driven by positive and negative interactions among members of the same or different phylum, respectively, or by similar niche preferences associated with phylum rank among root inhabiting bacteria across plant host species. In contrast to the large differences between root habitats, drought had limited effects on network properties but did result in a higher proportion of shared co-occurrences between rhizosphere and endosphere networks. Our study points to fundamentally different ecological processes shaping bacterial co-occurrence across root habitats. [Formula: see text] Copyright © 2023 The Author(s).

Identification and Complete Genome Sequence of an Alternavirus from a Pathogenic Fungus, Fusarium nanum, Collected by Air Sampling
Authors: Mokhtari Samira , Ali Akhtar 
Published: December 2022

In this study, fungal spores were collected from the air, and mycelium was grown in Petri dishes containing potato dextrose agar medium in the lab. Based on the morphological and molecular characteristics, the fungus was identified as Fusarium nanum. A new double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) mycovirus was isolated from the mycelia of F. nanum and tentatively named Fusarium nanum alternavirus 1 (FnAV1). The complete genome sequence of FnAV1 was obtained by Illumina sequencing, followed by Sanger sequencing and the rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) of the 5′ and 3′ ends. FnAV1 is composed of three dsRNA segments: dsRNA1 (3,546 nt) encodes RdRp, dsRNA2 (2,511 nt) encodes a hypothetical protein, and dsRNA3 encodes the coat protein (2,484 nt). The multiple alignments, along with phylogenetic analysis based on the RdRp (dsRNA1) and coat protein (dsRNA3) amino acid sequences, suggest that FnAV1 clusters with other members of the newly proposed family Alternaviridae, has high identities with Fusarium incarnatum alternavirus 1 (FiAV1), and might be a new strain isolated from a different fungal host, F. nanum. This is the first report of a mycovirus from the mycelial culture of F. nanum, which was obtained from spores collected at a 12-m altitude via air sampling. This suggests that the airborne spores could carry the mycovirus for long-distance movement and dissemination to new locations. [Formula: see text] Copyright © 2023 The Author(s).

Published: December 2022

Background:
Pediatric patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are at increased infectious risk caused by underlying immunologic dysregulation and immunosuppressive therapy. Hepatitis B virus (HBV) could be reactivated during the immunosuppressive treatment in patients with past HBV infections. Information on immunogenicity after hepatitis B (HB) immunization and reimmunization are still scarce.

Methods:
SLE patients 5–18 years of age who had completed a primary HB immunization were enrolled. Anti-HBs levels at enrollment and after each vaccine dose were determined. Patients with anti-HBs levels < 10 mIU/mL were administered 1 booster dose. After 1 booster dose, patients with negative anti-HBs levels were administered 2 more booster doses.

Results:
Ninety-three SLE patients were enrolled. The prevalence of seroprotection assessed by anti-HBs > 10 mIU/mL after completion of a primary HB immunization was 25.8% (95% CI: 17.2–34.4). Lupus nephritis was associated with unprotective anti-HBs levels [odds ratio (OR): 4.341; 95% CI: 1.044–18.040]. The anti-HBs seroconversion was 72.3% (95% CI: 61.5-83.0) after 1 booster dose and increased up to 93.4% (95% CI: 86.9–98.4) after 3 booster doses. SLE Disease Activity Index-2000 score ≥ 4 (OR: 4.625; 95% CI: 1.45–14.80) was significantly associated with nonseroconversion after the first booster dose. Hypocomplementemia before the first and second booster doses (OR: 27; 95% CI: 1.26–578.35) was significantly associated with nonseroconversion after 3 booster doses.

Conclusions:
All pediatric SLE patients should be evaluated for HBV serological status before immunosuppressive treatment. SLE patients with SLE Disease Activity Index-2000 score > 4 should need 3 booster doses if their anti-HBs level was < 10 mIU/mL.
“Patterns of filler-induced facial skin necrosis: A systematic review of 243 cases and introduction of the F.O.E.M. scoring system and grading scale.”
Authors: Soares Danny J. , Bowhay Alexis , Blevins Larry W. , Patel Sagar M. , Zuliani Giancarlo F. 
Published: December 2022

Background:
The incidence of facial skin necrosis has increased considerably due to the growth in the popularity of dermal fillers. This study describes the patterns and severity of facial skin necrosis, along with associated neuro-ophthalmological injuries, in the published literature through the introduction of the
F
acial artery,
O
phthalmic artery, distal
E
xternal carotid artery, internal
M
axillary artery (F.O.E.M.) facial angiosome scoring system and grading scale.

Methods:
A systematic review of all photographic cases of facial skin necrosis due to vascular occlusion with dermal fillers and injectable materials was conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses.

Results:
A total of 243 cases were identified, with 738 digital clinical photographs retrieved. The facial artery (58% of cases) and ophthalmic artery (48% of cases) angiosomes were most commonly affected. The frontonasal and angulonasal territories were the most common facial skin segments injured by filler-induced vascular occlusion. Cutaneous involvement of the ophthalmic angiosome was significantly associated with neuro-ophthalmological complications (vision loss: 39% vs 0.8%, p = 0.00001; stroke: 8% vs 0.8%, p = 0.0085). Injuries with greater cutaneous surface area or cross-angiosome involvement were associated with a higher incidence of Type IV visual deficits and bilateral stroke.

Conclusions:
Facial skin necrosis due to vascular occlusion is a rapidly growing problem that has remained poorly characterized in the literature. This study provides the largest descriptive analysis of published photographic reports of skin necrosis to date and proposes a novel scoring system and grading classification to aid in future reporting.

Abstract
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a kind of disease with high morbidity, mortality and disability, and its pathogenesis is still unclear. Research shows that nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor containing pyrin domain 3 (NLRP3) activation in neurons and astrocytes is involved in neuroinflammatory cascades after TBI. What’s more, Polydatin (PD) has been shown to have a have a protective effect on TBI - induced neuroinflammation, but the mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we speculated that PD could alleviate TBI-induced neuroinflammatory damage through the superoxide dismutase (SOD2)-NLRP3 signal pathway, and SOD2 might regulate NLRP3 inflammasome activation. The model of lateral fluid percussion (LFP) for in vivo and cell stretching injury (SI) for in vitro were established to mimic TBI. NLRP3 chemical inhibitor MCC950, SOD2 inhibitor 2-Methoxyestradiol (2-ME2), and PD were administered immediately after TBI. As a result, the expression of SOD2 acetylation (SOD2 Ac-K122), NLRP3 and cleaved caspase-1 were incresased after TBI both in vivo and in vitro, and using SOD2 inhibitor 2-ME2 significantly promoted SOD2 Ac-K122, NLRP3, and cleaved caspase-1 expression, as well as exacerbated mtROS accumulation and MMP collapse in PC12 cells. However, using NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 significantly inhibited cleaved caspase-1 activation following TBI both in vivo and in vitro; meanwhile, MCC950 inhibited mtROS accumulation and MMP collapse following TBI. More importantly, PD could inhibit the level of SOD2 Ac-K122, NLRP3 and cleaved caspase-1, while promote the expression of SOD2 following TBI both in vivo and in vitro. PD also inhibited mtROS accumulation and MMP collapse following SI. These results indicated that PD inhibited SOD2 acetylation to alleviate NLRP3 inflammasome activation, thus acting a protective role against TBI neuroinflammation.

Background.
Cardiovascular disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in kidney transplant recipients. Trial evidence to improve cardiovascular outcomes is limited by inconsistent reporting of outcomes, which may also lack patient-relevance. This study aimed to assess the range and consistency of cardiovascular outcomes reported by contemporary trials in kidney transplant recipients.

Methods.
A systematic review of all randomized controlled trials involving adult kidney transplant recipients that reported at least 1 cardiovascular outcome from January 2012 to December 2019 was performed, including Embase, MEDLINE, Cochrane, and ClinicalTrials.gov electronic databases. Trial characteristics were extracted and all levels of specification of the cardiovascular outcome measures reported were analyzed (the measure definition, metric‚ and method of aggregation). Measures assessing a similar aspect of cardiovascular disease were categorized into outcomes.

Results.
From 93 eligible trials involving 27 609 participants, 490 outcome measures were identified. The outcome measures were grouped into 38 outcomes. A cardiovascular composite was the most common outcome reported (40 trials, 43%) followed by cardiovascular mortality (42%) and acute coronary syndrome (31%). Cardiovascular composite was also the most heterogeneous outcome with 77 measures reported followed by cardiovascular mortality (n = 58) and inflammatory biomarkers (n = 51). The most common cardiovascular composite outcome components reported were major cardiovascular events (18 trials), stroke unspecified (11 trials), and myocardial infarction unspecified (10 trials).

Conclusions.
There is substantial heterogeneity in cardiovascular outcome reporting in kidney transplant trials.
