Published: June 2022

AbstractBackgroundThis study aims to establish the mechanism by which virtual reality (VR) media characteristics affect learning transfer in a VR‐based job‐training environment. The two main determinants of learning transfer are the technology and the learner, but not many studies have considered both factors simultaneously.ObjectivesThis study aims to ascertain the mechanism by which VR media characteristics affect learning transfer with flow as a mediator, and to explore whether presence moderates the effect of VR media characteristics on flow.MethodsA survey of semiconductor facilities engineers who received VR‐based job training was conducted. A total of 106 responses were used in the statistical analysis. A path analysis was conducted to determine the promotional mechanism that connects VR media characteristics, flow, and learning transfer.Results and ConclusionsThe results were as follows. First, VR media characteristics had a positive impact on learning transfer. Second, flow acted as a mediator in the relationship between VR media characteristics and learning transfer. Third, presence played a moderating role in the relationship between VR media characteristics and flow.Key takeawaysThis study is significant as it identifies elements to consider in relation to both the technological and learner aspects of VR while designing a VR‐based job‐training programme. A corporation should consider VR media characteristics from a technological perspective, and flow and presence from a learner's perspective.

AbstractAimThe purpose of this study was to determine whether cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) started in pregnancy can prevent depression and anxiety.MethodsWe conducted an overview review by selecting systematic reviews (SRs) that compared CBT with usual care, no CBT, or interventions other than CBT in perinatal women. We restricted the review to studies that included randomized controlled trials. The results of included SRs were descriptively integrated according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta‐Analyses guidelines.ResultsSeven SRs met our eligibility criteria. One SR was limited to CBT interventions, whereas others included psychoeducation and interpersonal psychotherapy. There was some variation in the number of sessions and timing of CBT, and whether there was a postpartum intervention. Five SRs showed that CBT reduced depression compared with usual care, an educational intervention, or no intervention. One SR that analyzed the effect on anxiety found that psychotherapy, including CBT, reduced anxiety compared with usual care or no intervention.DiscussionCBT starting from pregnancy may be effective as a preventive intervention for postpartum depression and anxiety, although the degree of effectiveness varied.ConclusionsThis overview review aimed to clarify whether CBT is effective in preventing depression and anxiety from pregnancy. CBT may be effective in reducing perinatal depression and anxiety.

The Affect Regulation Checklist (ARC) was designed to capture affect dysregulation, suppression, and reflection. Importantly, affect dysregulation has been established as a transdiagnostic mechanism underpinning many forms of psychopathology. We tested the ARC psychometric properties across clinical and community samples and through both parent‐report and youth self‐report information. Clinical sample: Participants included parents (n = 814; Mage = 43.86) and their child (n = 608; Mage = 13.98). Community sample: Participants included independent samples of parents (n = 578; Mage = 45.12) and youth (n = 809; Mage = 15.67). Exploratory structural equation modeling supported a three‐factor structure across samples and informants. Dysregulation was positively associated with all forms of psychopathology. In general, suppression was positively associated with many forms of psychopathology, and reflection was negatively associated with externalizing problems and positively associated with internalizing problems.

Published: June 2022

AbstractIn‐pond raceway systems (IPRS) are a high‐density ecological green pond aquaculture mode, which has developed rapidly in China in recent years. This study evaluated the flesh quality and physiological response of grass carp under the IPRS mode. Compared with the traditional earthen pond (EP) mode, the grass carp hepatosomatic index and viscerosomatic index under the IPRS mode are significantly (p < 0.05) lower. And the water holding capacity of grass carp muscles were significantly (p < 0.05) improved. Compared with EP mode, grass carp muscles under the IPRS mode have more crude protein content and less crude fat content, and have higher muscle fiber density and smaller muscle fiber diameter. In the IPRS mode, the total amount of essential amino acids (∑EAA) in grass carp muscle increased significantly (p < 0.05), and the content of savory amino acids increased significantly (p < 0.05). In addition, the content of eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid in the muscle fatty acids of IPRS grass carp was also significantly (p < 0.05) higher than EP mode. At the same time, in order to cope with the high‐density culture mode of IPRS, the activity of catalase and superoxide dismutase in grass carp muscle was significantly (p < 0.05) increased, and the alanine aminotransferase in serum, aspartate aminotransferase, as well as other biochemical indexes, increased significantly (p < 0.05). In the IPRS mode, the mass‐specific lamellae respiratory area of the gill increased significantly (p < 0.05), and the volume of the interlaminar cell mass decreased significantly (p < 0.05) to increase oxygen intake. Taken together, our results show that grass carp will produce relevant physiological response to cope with the IPRS high‐density culture environment, while their flesh yield, flesh quality, and nutritional value is improved.

AbstractIn this study, the effect of using bacteria with phytase activity (AM) isolated from traditional dairy products was investigated for use in feeding rainbow trout. For this purpose, 450 rainbow trout with an average initial weight of 6.50 ± 0.43 g were randomly distributed to treatments in a controlled feeding experiment lasting 8 weeks. Experimental diets consisted of treatments with two levels of 20% and 40% soybean meal, each with two levels of AM and the commercial phytase (SP) of 1000 FTU/kg (AMT20, AMT40, SPT20, and SPT40), 2000 (AMS20, AMS40, SPS20, and SPS40), and zero (C20 and C40) as the control treatment. The results showed that the body weight gain, daily growth rate, and nutrient digestibility were higher in C20 treatment than C40 (p < 0.05). The use of SP and AM had a significant effect on body composition in fish fed diets containing 20% and 40% soy (p < 0.05). In the treatment with 40% soybean replacement level, bacteria with phytase activity could significantly increase the protein content (p < 0.05). The addition of bacteria to the AMS40 treatment neutralized the negative effect of 40% soy replacement on growth, protein, fat, and calcium and magnesium digestibility (p < 0.05). The present study showed that using AM (especially at the dose of 2000 FTU/kg) could increase the replacement level of soybean for fishmeal in rainbow trout diet not only without a negative effect on growth, but also for improvement of fish performance.

AbstractBackgroundBody surface gastric mapping (BSGM) is a new clinical tool for gastric motility diagnostics, providing high‐resolution data on gastric myoelectrical activity. Artifact contamination was a key challenge to reliable test interpretation in traditional electrogastrography. This study aimed to introduce and validate an automated artifact detection and rejection system for clinical BSGM applications.MethodsTen patients with chronic gastric symptoms generated a variety of artifacts according to a standardized protocol (176 recordings) using a commercial BSGM system (Alimetry, New Zealand). An automated artifact detection and rejection algorithm was developed, and its performance was compared with a reference standard comprising consensus labeling by 3 analysis experts, followed by comparison with 6 clinicians (3 untrained and 3 trained in artifact detection). Inter‐rater reliability was calculated using Fleiss' kappa.Key ResultsInter‐rater reliability was 0.84 (95% CI:0.77–0.90) among experts, 0.76 (95% CI:0.68–0.83) among untrained clinicians, and 0.71 (95% CI:0.62–0.79) among trained clinicians. The sensitivity and specificity of the algorithm against experts was 96% (95% CI:91%–100%) and 95% (95% CI:90%–99%), respectively, vs 77% (95% CI:68%–85%) and 99% (95% CI:96%–100%) against untrained clinicians, and 97% (95% CI:92%–100%) and 88% (95% CI:82%–94%) against trained clinicians.Conclusions & InferencesAn automated artifact detection and rejection algorithm was developed showing >95% sensitivity and specificity vs expert markers. This algorithm overcomes an important challenge in the clinical translation of BSGM and is now being routinely implemented in patient test interpretations.

ObjectivesAs a new pelvic fixation technique, the dual S2AI screws fixation technique could provide highly stable distal strength, and have wide clinical prospect in the correction of severe kyphoscoliosis. However, the ideal trajectory parameters, indications and clinical outcomes of this technique have not been reported so far. This study aimed to determine the anatomical parameters of dual S2AI screws in the normal Chinese adult population, investigating the indications of this technique and evaluating the feasibility and clinical outcomes.MethodsFifteen males and 15 females with normal pelvis underwent a pelvic CT scan to determine ideal dual S2AI screws trajectories. Sagittal angle (SA), transverse angle (TA), maximal length (ML), sacral length, and skin distance were measured. Subsequently, we retrospectively reviewed the data of 16 patients (seven males and nine females) who underwent dual S2AI screw fixation and 23 patients who underwent single S2AI screw fixation between January 2014 and December 2019. Preoperative, postoperative, and latest follow‐up measurements of Cobb angle, coronal balance (CB), spinal pelvic obliquity (SPO), and regional kyphosis (RK) were obtained. The mean follow‐up time was 16.7 ± 7.1 months (range: 12–30 months). Independent t‐test was used to determine the difference in the analysis of the trajectories. The paired sample non‐parametric Wilcoxon test was performed to assess the changes in radiographic parameters between different time points and different groups.ResultsFor both male and females, the proximal S2AI screws had significantly higher TA and ML, but a lower SA than distal screws. Females showed significantly more caudal (SA: 25.03° ± 2.32° vs. 29.82° ± 2.47°, t = 7.742, P < 0.001) trajectories of distal screw. Additionally, ML in the females were significantly shorter than that in males (106.81 mm ± 6.79 mm vs. 101.63 mm ± 6.55 mm, t = 3.007, P = 0.003, 124.41 mm ± 7.57 mm vs. 116.23 mm ± 7.03 mm, t = 4.337, P < 0.001). Eight had unilateral and eight had bilateral dual S2AI screw placement. Respectively, both the single S2AI and dual S2AI groups showed significant postoperative improvement of Cobb angle, RK angle and SPO angle. In patients with dual S2AI screws fixation, two patients found that screws loosening occurred in one of dual screws at 1‐year follow‐up, and in patients with single S2AI screws fixation, six patients found screw loosing as well as two patients found screw breakage at 1‐year follow‐up. None of all patients had any prominent loss of correction.ConclusionThe ideal trajectory of dual S2AI screw could be well established. The dual S2AI screw fixation technique is feasible in patients with severe kyphoscoliosis, and provides satisfactory correction of deformity with few postoperative complications.

AbstractGlycerolipids are essential for rice development and grain quality but its genetic regulation remains unknown. Here we report its genetic base using metabolite‐based genome‐wide association study and metabolite‐based quantitative traits locus (QTL) analyses based on lipidomic profiles of seeds from 587 Asian cultivated rice accessions and 103 chromosomal segment substitution lines, respectively. We found that two genes encoding phosphatidylcholine (PC):diacylglycerol cholinephosphotransferase (OsLP1) and granule‐bound starch synthase I (Waxy) contribute to variations in saturated triacylglycerol (TAG) and lyso‐PC contents, respectively. We demonstrated that allelic variation in OsLP1 sequence between indica and japonica results in different enzymatic preference for substrate PC‐16:0/16:0 and different saturated TAG levels. Further evidence demonstrated that OsLP1 also affects heading date, and that co‐selection of OsLP1 and a flooding‐tolerant QTL in Aus results in the abundance of saturated TAGs associated with flooding tolerance. Moreover, we revealed that the sequence polymorphisms in Waxy has pleiotropic effects on lyso‐PC and amylose content. We proposed that rice seed glycerolipids have been unintentionally shaped during natural and artificial selection for adaptive or import seed quality traits. Collectively, our findings provide valuable genetic resources for rice improvement and evolutionary insights into seed glycerolipid variations in rice.

AbstractA new, simple‐to‐synthesize and sensitive turn‐on fluorogenic substrate (CFMU‐Glu) for β‐glucosidase activity was developed. This probe was based on a 7‐hydroxycoumarin derivative (CFMU) that could emit green fluorescence and had the low pKa value of 5.61 ± 0.01. CFMU‐Glu could be used for sensitive monitoring of the almond βGLU and Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) at the optimal pHs of 6.50 and 7.00, respectively. Moreover, a new sensitive and selective fluorogenic broth (PBF‐B) for E. faecalis, utilizing CFMU‐Glu and polymyxin B, was also developed. Polymyxin B was discovered to can significantly improve the detection selectivity and signal intensity. The proposed 4‐four method using PBF‐B and a microcentrifuge tube could provide fluorogenic detection limits of 5.01 × 104 and 1.0 × 105 CFU mL−1 by fluorescence microplate reader and naked eye, respectively; it could also provide a turn‐on chromogenic detection limit of 1.0 × 106 CFU mL−1 by naked eye. The proposed method could detect 8 CFU mL−1 of E. faecalis in drinking water, Liangcha (herbal tea) and milk samples within 10 h, without pre‐enrichment.

Published: June 2022

AbstractThe article examines how military leaders serving as peacekeepers navigate complexity and adapt to it. The theoretical underpinnings of the study are linked to adaptive peacebuilding and Complexity Leadership Theory, and specifically to how enabling leadership through adaptive space helps to work with the local conflict dynamics and change to sustain peace. The findings are based on 29 interviews with military leaders with command experience in peacekeeping operations. The findings introduce five dimensions that unpack complexity into structural, functional, security‐related, professional, and steering‐related complexity and provide empirical evidence on balancing actions relating to complexity in a peacekeeping context. The article develops an analytical framework for peacekeeping. It also contributes to Complexity Leadership Theory by unpacking the complexity into dimensions, unpacking the actors into groups and communities with commitments, and addressing power relations and the dark side of their emergence.

AbstractThe aim was to assess the reproductive efficiency of different techniques used to preserve spermatozoa in artificial insemination semen doses (AI‐doses) by evaluating refrigeration at 15°C, cryopreservation and encapsulation. Forty‐two hyperprolific sows were treated with buserelin and inseminated once at a single fixed time. The fertility rate, embryonic vesicles viability and the early embryonic mortality (arrested conceptuses) evaluated post‐mortem at 24th day of pregnancy, were analysed in order to assess the effectiveness of each proposed technique. Results show an overall reduction on fertility using the three proposal sperm preservation techniques (69.27%, 60.00% and 78.75% for refrigerated, frozen–thawed and encapsulated AI‐doses, respectively). Total number of embryonic vesicles was very similar among the three treatments; yet, the number of viable vesicles was numerically different among groups, and thus, embryonic viability was 79.25%, 80.0% and 87.15% for refrigerated, frozen–thawed and encapsulated AI‐doses, respectively.
China–US economic and trade relations, trade news, and short‐term fluctuation of the RMB exchange rate
Authors: Guo Wei , Chen Zhongfei 
Published: June 2022

AbstractThe trade war between the US and China affects the fluctuation of RMB exchange rate. We collect news on China–US trade policies and talks from January 2017 to July 2020. Results show that China–US dialogue and tariff imposition have the greatest impact on the percentage of RMB appreciation and depreciation. Additionally, tariff relaxation and increasing enterprise restrictions can cause a sharp appreciation and depreciation. “Policies” events and trade news from the US influence RMB fluctuations the most significantly. Finally, positive events cannot significantly cause RMB appreciation, but negative events can significantly cause RMB devaluation.

AbstractObjectiveTo determine the burden and management of filarial lymphoedema and its associated factors in Lindi district, Tanzania.MethodsCross‐sectional study involving 954 community members who were screened for filarial lymphoedema by using a checklist. Moreover, lymphoedema patients were examined for the presence of entry lesions, staging of disease, and interviewed on acute dermatolymphangioadenitis (ADLA) attacks, and their current practices on lymphoedema management. Descriptive statistics and logistic regression analyses were performed. A p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.ResultsThe prevalence of filarial lymphoedema was 7.8%, with the majority in the early stage of lymphoedema (78.4%). The large majority (98.6%) of the patients had lower limb lymphoedema and 46% of lymphoedema patients had entry lesions. More than a half (60.8%) of those lymphoedema patients had experienced ADLA attacks; close to two‐thirds (64.8%) had one or two attacks in the past 6 months. Generally, patients had inappropriate hygiene care practices for filarial lymphoedema management. Inappropriate hygiene care practice for lymphoedema management was associated with an increased risk for the development of advance stage of lymphoedema (adjusted odds ratio = 7.379, 95%, confidence interval: 3.535–16.018, p = 0.04).ConclusionThough lymphatic filariasis transmission has drastically declined, chronic manifestations of lymphoedema persist in Lindi district. The recommended disease management practices are deficient, which calls for a programmatic approach for mapping the burden of lymphoedema and implementing its management.
