AbstractThe scattering of light by aerosol particles dictates atmospheric visibility, which is a straightforward indicator of air quality. It is affected by numerous factors, such as particle number size distribution, particle mass concentration (PM2.5), ambient relative humidity (RH), and chemical composition. The latter two factors jointly influence the aerosol liquid water content (ALWC). Here, the particle backscattering coefficient (βp) under ambient RH conditions is investigated to differentiate and quantify the contributions of aerosol properties and meteorology using comprehensive observational datasets acquired at three megacities in China, that is, Beijing (BJ), Nanjing (NJ), and Guangzhou (GZ). Overall, the temporal variations in βp under ambient RH conditions are consistent with those in ALWC at the three sites. The PM2.5 in BJ is systematically higher than in NJ and GZ, while ambient RH and aerosol hygroscopicity in NJ are much higher than in BJ and GZ. Notable differences in the variations of βp with related factors at the three sites are demonstrated. βp is more sensitive to particle hygroscopicity and mass in NJ and ambient RH in BJ. The relative contributions of these factors to βp at the three sites under different pollution conditions are differentiated and quantified. The factor with the largest impact on the variability in βp shifts from particle mass to ambient RH as air quality deteriorated to heavy pollution in BJ. The opposite is true in NJ. In GZ, the contributions of these factors to changes in βp under different pollution conditions are similar, both dominated by PM2.5.

AbstractSpin angular momentum transfer in magnetic bilayers offers the possibility of ultrafast and low-loss operation for next-generation spintronic devices. We report the field- and temperature- dependent measurements on the magnetization precessions in Co2FeAl/(Ga,Mn)As by time-resolved magneto-optical Kerr effect. Analysis of the effective Gilbert damping and phase shift indicates a clear signature of an enhanced dynamic exchange coupling between the two ferromagnetic (FM) layers due to the reinforced spin pumping at resonance. The temperature dependence of the dynamic exchange-coupling reveals a primary contribution from the ferromagnetism in (Ga,Mn)As.

Published: November 2022

AbstractThe anaerobic threshold (AT) is the point of the aerobic-to-anaerobic metabolic switch. Despite the many clinical applications of AT, this measurement requires sophisticated equipment and skills. Here, we investigated a simple measurement method for AT using percutaneous oxygen saturation (SpO2) and pulse rate (PR) with a pulse oximeter in a study of exercise stress on healthy volunteers. Twenty individuals (ten men and ten women) were included in the study. Various respiratory parameters, including AT, were measured using conventional analytical methods. The SpO2threshold (ST) was calculated using the SpO2-Slope method. The mean ± standard deviations SpO2at ST was 97.8% ± 0.3% in men and 99.0 ± 0.3% in women. The concordance and interchangeability between ST and various five different types of AT, the ventilatory equivalent for oxygen (VE/VO2_AT), V-Slope (V-Slope_AT), ventilatory equivalent (VE_AT), respiratory exchange ratio (R_AT), and partial pressure of end-tidal oxygen (PETO2_AT) were generally high, with positive correlation coefficients in the range of [0.68–0.80]. These findings suggest that the SpO2-Slope method with a pulse oximeter may be a useful and simple method to determine AT compared to conventional methods.

Published: November 2022

AbstractIn this article, we demonstrate the solution methodology of start-up electrokinetic flow of non-Newtonian fluids in a microfluidic channel having square cross-section using Spreadsheet analysis tool. In order to incorporate the rheology of the non-Newtonian fluids, we take into consideration the Ostwald-de Waele power law model. By making a comprehensive discussion on the implementation details of the discretized form of the transport equations in Spreadsheet analysis tool, and establishing the analytical solution for a special case of the start-up flow, we compare the results both during initial transience as well as in case of steady-state scenario. Also, to substantiate the efficacy of the proposed spreadsheet analysis in addressing the detailed flow physics of rheological fluids, we verify the results for several cases with the corresponding numerical results. It is found that the solution obtained from the Spreadsheet analysis is in good agreement with the numerical results—a finding supporting spreadsheet analysis's suitability for capturing the fine details of microscale flows. We strongly believe that our analysis study will open up a new research scope in simulating microscale transport process of non-Newtonian fluids in the framework of cost-effective and non-time consuming manner.

AbstractThe control of the mechanism leading to the appearance of the ring-shaped stains from the dried liquid colloidal droplets has been the subject of intense studies over the last 25 years. This stems from the immense significance of this effect for technological applications. One of the key open topics in this field is the emergence of a regular multi-ring deposit from the dried droplet. Here, we show that magnetic nanoparticles in a drying magnetic liquid droplet can self-assemble into a multi-ring deposit structure, and even more importantly, a magnetic field can be turned on to control the underlying processes. The magnetic liquid is prepared as an aqueous suspension of Fe$$_3$$

Bioaccumulation and physiological changes in the fruiting body of Agaricus bisporus (Large) sing in response to cadmium
Authors: He Haiyan , Zhang Dan , Gao Jianing 
Published: November 2022

AbstractThe bioremediation of heavy metals contaminated soils with macrofungi is a new and promising approach; hence Agaricus bisporus (Large) sing has potentially shown accumulating ability to Cd contamination. This study focused on the tolerance response by A. bisporus to different contents of Cd in the closed cup and the flat stage of fruiting body development. The contents of Cd, soluble protein, sugar, low molecular weight organic acids (LMWOAs), and antioxidant activity were investigated. The bioaccumulation factor and transfer factor results revealed that Cd accumulated in the cap of A. bisporus more than that in the stipe with the highest content being 18.38 mg kg−1 dry weight at the closed cup stage under 414.28 mg kg−1 Cd stress. High Cd content stress increased soluble protein, proline, and malonaldehyde contents at both stages; while higher peroxidase, catalase, ascorbic acid peroxidase activities, and LMWOAs contents were only recorded at the closed cup stage. On the other hand, Superoxide dismutase activities and soluble sugar content showed a complex trend. Overall, these results have successfully established that A. bisporus could resort to modulating its metabolism to avoid the destructive effects of Cd stress and could successfully accumulate Cd in the soil, which is a promising prospect for the remediation of Cd-contaminated soils.

AbstractTransport and transformation of urban air pollutants are among the major factors driving the changes in the atmospheric composition in the downwind rural/remote areas of a megacity. Here, we assess the impacts of urban air pollution in a subtropical forest through characterization of the organic markers in submicron aerosol particles. The aerosol samples were collected and analyzed using TD-PTR-ToF-MS, where 163 ions were detected. The concentration of these extracted ions accounts for 83% of the mass of submicron organic aerosols, which are accordingly characterized by a median formula of C7H10O2. Molecular speciation indicates that urban and biomass burning pollution contributed substantially to the budget of organic aerosols, which were enhanced particularly by the liquid water content and acidity of the aerosols. Our results evidence that the footprint of urban air pollution was extended to its downwind forested areas and caused changes in the concentration and composition of submicron aerosols.

AbstractMany lepidopteran species produce silk, cocoons, feeding tubes, or nests for protection from predators and parasites for caterpillars and pupae. Yet, the number of lepidopteran species whose silk composition has been studied in detail is very small, because the genes encoding the major structural silk proteins tend to be large and repetitive, making their assembly and sequence analysis difficult. Here we have analyzed the silk ofYponomeuta cagnagella, which represents one of the early diverging lineages of the ditrysian Lepidoptera thus improving the coverage of the order. To obtain a comprehensive list of theY. cagnagella silkgenes, we sequenced and assembled a draft genome using Oxford Nanopore and Illumina technologies. We used a silk-gland transcriptome and a silk proteome to identify major silk components and verified the tissue specificity of expression of individual genes. A detailed annotation of the major genes and their putative products, including their complete sequences and exon-intron structures is provided. The morphology of silk glands and fibers are also shown. This study fills an important gap in our growing understanding of the structure, evolution, and function of silk genes and provides genomic resources for future studies of the chemical ecology ofYponomeutaspecies.

AbstractGlucagon is a major regulator of metabolism and drugs targeting the glucagon receptor (GCGR) are being developed. Insight into tissue and cell-specific expression of the GCGR is important to understand the biology of glucagon and to differentiate between direct and indirect actions of glucagon. However, it has been challenging to localize the GCGR in tissue due to low expression levels and lack of specific methods. Immunohistochemistry has frequently been used for GCGR localization, but antibodies targeting G-protein-coupled-receptors may be inaccurate. We evaluated all currently commercially available GCGR antibodies. The antibody, ab75240 (Antibody no. 11) was found to perform best among the twelve antibodies tested and using this antibody we found expression of the GCGR in the kidney, liver, preadipocytes, pancreas, and heart. Three antibody-independent approaches all confirmed the presence of the GCGR within the pancreas, liver and the kidneys. GCGR expression should be evaluated by both antibody and antibody-independent approaches.

Published: November 2022

AbstractAcceleration of material discovery has been tackled by informatics and laboratory automation. Here we show a semi-automated material exploration scheme to modelize the solubility of tetraphenylporphyrin derivatives. The scheme involved the following steps: definition of a practical chemical search space, prioritization of molecules in the space using an extended algorithm for submodular function maximization without requiring biased variable selection or pre-existing data, synthesis & automated measurement, and machine-learning model estimation. The optimal evaluation order selected using the algorithm covered several similar molecules (32% of all targeted molecules, whereas that obtained by random sampling and uncertainty sampling was ~7% and ~4%, respectively) with a small number of evaluations (10 molecules: 0.13% of all targeted molecules). The derived binary classification models predicted ‘good solvents’ with an accuracy >0.8. Overall, we confirmed the effectivity of the proposed semi-automated scheme in early-stage material search projects for accelerating a wider range of material research.

Abstract
Persons with cystic fibrosis (CF) exhibit a unique alteration of fatty acid composition, marked especially among polyunsaturates by relative deficiency of linoleic acid and excess of Mead acid. Relative deficiency of docosahexaenoic acid is variably found. However, the initial development of these abnormalities is not understood. We examined fatty acid composition in young CF ferrets and pigs, finding abnormalities from the day of birth onward including relative deficiency of linoleic acid in both species. Fatty acid composition abnormalities were present in both liver and serum phospholipids of newborn CF piglets even prior to feeding, including reduced linoleic acid and increased Mead acid. Serum fatty acid composition evolved over the first weeks of life in both non-CF and CF ferrets, though differences between CF and non-CF persisted. Although red blood cell phospholipid fatty acid composition was normal in newborn animals, it became perturbed in juvenile CF ferrets including relative deficiencies of linoleic and docosahexaenoic acids and excess of Mead acid. In summary, fatty acid composition abnormalities in CF pigs and ferrets exist from a young age including at birth independent of feeding and overlap extensively with the abnormalities found in humans with CF. That the abnormalities exist prior to feeding implies that dietary measures alone will not address the mechanisms of imbalance.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is vital for pathophysiology of atherosclerosis and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Monoamine oxidase (MAO) is an important source of oxidative stress in the vascular system and liver. However, the effect of MAO inhibition on atherosclerosis and NAFLD has not been explored. In the present study, MAO A and B expressions were increased in atherosclerotic plaques in human and apolipoprotein E (ApoE)-deficient mice. Inhibition of MAO B (by deprenyl), but not MAO A (by clorgyline), reduced the atheroma area in the thoracic aorta and aortic sinus in ApoE-deficient mice fed the cholesterol-enriched diet for 15 weeks. MAO B inhibition attenuated oxidative stress, expression of adhesion molecules, production of inflammatory cytokines, and macrophage infiltration in atherosclerotic plaques and decreased plasma triglyceride and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol concentrations. MAO B inhibition had no therapeutic effect on restenosis in the femoral artery wire-induced injury model in C57BL/6 mice. In the NAFLD mouse model, MAO B inhibition reduced lipid droplet deposition in the liver and hepatic total cholesterol and triglyceride levels in C57BL/6 mice fed high-fat diets for 10 weeks. Key enzymes for triglyceride and cholesterol biosynthesis (fatty acid synthase and 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase, HMGCR) and inflammatory markers were inhibited, and cholesterol clearance was up-regulated (increased LDL receptor expression and reduced proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9, PCSK9, expression) by MAO B inhibition in the liver. These results were also demonstrated in the HepG2 liver cell model. Our data suggest that MAO B inhibition is a potential and novel treatment for atherosclerosis and NAFLD.
Stuttering, Intersectionality, and Identity: A Qualitative Analysis of the Experiences of Lesbian, Gay, and Bisexual Individuals Who Stutter
Authors: Daniels Derek E. , Boyle Michael P. , Archer Brent E. 
Published: November 2022

Purpose:
Speech-language pathologists are influential in shaping identity development for individuals who stutter, particularly as it relates to communication. This study investigated the experiences of lesbian, gay, and bisexual individuals who stutter to learn more about how multiple marginalized identities affect their psychosocial experiences.

Method:
Semi-structured interviews were conducted with seven individuals who stutter with lesbian, gay, and bisexual identities. Participants ranged in age from 22 to 60 years. Data were analyzed for themes and categories by using interpretive phenomenological analysis.

Results:
Four primary themes were identified: (a) the importance of visibility and shared social identity connections for affirmation; (b) effects of oppressive social expectations on identity; (c) intersectionality of stuttering, gay, lesbian, and bisexual identities; and (d) effects of not being affirmed for identity.

Discussion:
Results are discussed in the context of identity affirmation and intersectionality. Through an understanding of identity formation and psychosocial experiences of lesbian, gay, and bisexual individuals who stutter, speech-language pathologists can use identity-affirmative practices to support individuals who stutter and mitigate stigmatizing experiences. Implications focus on suggestions for the provision of identity-affirming speech-language pathology practices for students who stutter.
A non‐isolated bidirectional high gain integrated multiport converter for grid tied solar PV fed telecom load

Published: November 2022

AbstractA multiport converter (MPC) with a non‐isolated high gain bidirectional port is proposed for the grid integration of solar photovoltaic array (SPA) fed telecommunication load. The SPA along with a battery energy storage (BES) meets the power demand of the telecom DC load and the excess/deficit power is exchanged with AC grid. The MPC feeds the DC link of a voltage source converter for bidirectional operation with the AC grid. The small signal analysis of the converter shows that its operation is stable. The SPA, BES, and telecommunication load are rated for lower voltages, consecutively reducing the complexity with series‐connected SPA. The proposed MPC possesses the merits of high voltage gain, reduced inductor size, and reduced number of components. Moreover, a power flow management algorithm is devised for the proposed converter that regulates the DC voltage at the telecom load and ensures smooth power flow control among various ports. The MPC is able to operate at various modes by controlling the ports independently. The converter performance during steady state and dynamic operating conditions under various modes are analyzed with detailed simulation studies. An experimental prototype is developed and test results are demonstrated to prove the viability of the designed converter.
The classifiability scale
Authors: Holz Christoph 
Published: November 2022

Abstract
In many languages, nouns need a numeral classifier to combine with number words or quantifiers. Even though
languages may have an elaborate system of numeral classifiers, there usually are exceptional nouns that combine directly with
number words. This paper deals with the following questions: Which nouns trigger a numeral classifier when counted? Which nouns
are more likely to occur without an additional classifier in a numeral context? Data from 32 languages reveal a classifiability
scale of nouns depending on their semantics. The more animate a noun, the more likely is the occurrence of a classifier. With
inanimate nouns, classifiers often may or must be omitted. The investigation extends to units, with units of time being much more
likely to be accompanied by a numeral classifier than other units. These findings are surprising in the light of the predominant
view that numeral classifiers are individuating units in languages where nouns appear to be uncountable mass nouns. I discuss
several approaches, of which animacy and the form-frequency correspondence principle are most promising.
Classifiers in Dimasa and (in-)definite marking
Authors: Evans Jonathan P. 
Published: November 2022

AbstractDimasa (ISO 639-3 dis) is a Bodo-Garo language within the Tibeto-Burman family of languages. Like other Tibeto-Burman languages of Northeast India, it has a system of numeral classifiers which occur prefixed to their respective numerals. Across the dozen or so languages of Bodo-Garo, it has been noted that the classifier-numeral word can be placed either before or after the counted noun. The existence of numeral classifiers, as well as theclf-numorder may have arisen in this area due to contact with Tai languages during the Ahom kingdom period from the 1200’s to 1800’s. In the Tai languages, classifiers precede the number “one”. By comparing occurrences of classifiers in Dimasa texts, it can be seen that the order Nclf-numcorresponds to definite nouns, while the orderclf-num nmarks indefinites. In addition to classifier placement, Dimasa definiteness is also marked by demonstratives, case marking, topic marking, and/or combinations of these strategies.
