Published: December 2022

AbstractStructural color—a widespread phenomenon observed throughout nature is caused by light interference from ordered phases of matter. While state‐of‐the‐art nanofabrication techniques can produce structural organization in small areas, cost‐effective and scalable techniques are still lacking to generate tunable color at sub‐micron length scales. In this work, structurally colored hydroxypropyl cellulose filaments are produced with a suppressed angular color response by 3D printing. The systematic study of the morphology of the filaments reveals the key stages in the induction of a two‐degree hierarchical order through 3D printing. The first degree of order originated from the changing of the cholesteric pitch at a few hundred nm scale via chemical modification and tuning of the solid content of the lyotropic phase. Upon 3D printing, the secondary hierarchical order of periodic wrinkling is introduced through the Helfrich–Hurault deformation of the shear‐aligned cholesteric phases. In single‐layered filaments, four morphological zones with varying orders of wrinkles are identified. Detailed morphological characterization is carried out using SEM to shed light on the mechanism of the wrinkling behavior. Through this work, the possibility of modifying the wrinkling behavior is demonstrated and thus the angle dependence of the color response by changing the printing conditions.

AbstractThe α‐Ni(OH)2 is regarded as one promising cathode for aqueous nickel‐zinc batteries due to its high theoretical capacity of ≈480 mAh g−1, its practical deployment however suffers from the poor stability in strong alkaline solution, intrinsic low electrical conductivity as well as the retarded ionic diffusion. Herein, a 3D (three dimensional) macroporous α‐Ni(OH)2 nanosheets with Co doping is designed through a facile and easily scalable electroless plating combined with electrodeposition strategy. The unique micrometer‐sized 3D pores come from Ni substrate and rich voids between Co‐doping α‐Ni(OH)2 nanosheets can synergistically afford facile, interconnected ionic diffusion channels, sufficient free space for accommodating its volume changes during cycling; meanwhile, the Co‐doping can stabilize the structural robustness of the α‐Ni(OH)2 in the alkaline electrolyte during cycling. Thus, the 3D α‐Ni(OH)2 shows a high capacity of 284 mAh g−1 at 0.5 mA cm−2 with an excellent retention of 78% even at 15 mA cm−2, and more than 2000 stable cycles at 6 mA cm−2, as well as the robust cycling upon various flexible batteries. This work provides a simple and efficient pathway to enhance the electrochemical performance of Ni‐Zn batteries through improving ionic transport kinetics and stabilizing crystal structure of cathodes.

Published: December 2022

AbstractCrohn's disease (CD) is a chronic immune‐mediated inflammatory condition which can negatively impact a patient's quality of life. The traditional management strategy for CD has focused on symptomatic control, however, this approach fails to prevent organ damage and to change the progressive course of this disease. Thus, the field has moved towards a treat‐to‐target strategy that includes identifying individualized objective targets, choosing a therapy based on individual factors that include disease severity and risk, closely monitoring disease activity at predefined time points, and optimizing therapies as needed. Due to the increasing number of therapies approved for CD, this review explores the various factors which should be considered in the sequencing of treatment options together with using the treat‐to‐target framework to control disease activity early in its course and provide holistic patient care.
Clinicopathological and radiographic indicators for orogastric decompression in rabbits presenting with intestinal obstruction at a referral hospital (2015–2018)
Authors: Steinagel Amanda C. , Oglesbee Barbara L. 
Published: December 2022

AbstractBackgroundOrogastric decompression is regularly recommended as a part of both medical and pre‐surgical treatment for small intestinal obstruction in rabbits. However, guidelines as to when orogastric decompression is indicated are sparse.MethodsThe medical records of 35 rabbits diagnosed with gastrointestinal obstruction over a 3‐year period were examined. Differences in presentation, clinicopathological and radiographic examination findings, treatments and outcome were evaluated.ResultsApproximately 49% of the cases evaluated were considered to have non‐life‐threatening disease, while 51% were considered to have life‐threatening disease. The severity of gastric obstruction was correlated with the severity of hyperglycaemia (average 25.7 mmol/L; 463 mg/dl) and corresponding hyponatraemia (Na < 138 mmol/L; 138 mEq/L). These patients were treated with orogastric decompression and medical management only.LimitationsThis is a retrospective study and there are inherent limitations involving the quality of the data and data collection. Additional studies should be completed that strive for larger sample sizes to compare the differences in outcome between surgical and medical management, as well as investigate the outcomes of rabbits with hyperglycaemia and hyponatraemia that did not have an orogastric decompression performed.ConclusionsBlood glucose and sodium concentrations, in combination with radiographic findings, may aid clinicians in determining if orogastric decompression is indicated to stabilise rabbits with small intestinal obstructive disorders.

Published: December 2022

Abstract
The Global Navigation Satellite System – Interferometric Reflectometry (GNSS-IR) technique utilizes the GNSS Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) data to retrieve soil moisture. In this study, the physical SNR model incorporating antenna’s cross-polarization component is re-derived to a more intuitive and straightforward degree, which is based on the work of V. U. Zavorotny et al. 2009. Then this model is used in combination with the signal reconstruction method we proposed before to correct the cross-polarization effect when retrieving soil moisture. Both simulation and experiment data were used for validation purpose. The results showed that the mean retrieval error could be reduced by about 0.16cm

Explicit multivariate approximations from cell-average data
Authors: Amat Sergio , Levin David , Ruiz-Álvarez Juan , Yáñez Dionisio F. 
Published: December 2022

AbstractGiven gridded cell-average data of a smooth multivariate function, we present a constructive explicit procedure for generating a high-order global approximation of the function. One contribution is the derivation of high-order approximations to point-values of the function directly from the cell-average data. The second contribution is the development of univariate B-spline-based high-order quasi-interpolation operators using cell-average data. Multivariate spline quasi-interpolation approximation operators are obtained by tensor product of the univariate operators.

Published: December 2022

Abstract
Purpose
The main aim of this study was to estimate breast cancer survival in Poland over the period from 2000 to 2019 in both sexes.

Methods
Data were obtained from the Polish National Cancer Registry. The presented metrics included age-standardized 5- and 10-year net survival (NS), median survival times, years of life lost (YLLs), and standardized mortality ratios (SMRs).

Results
Between 2000 and 2019, 315,278 patients (2353 men and 312,925 women; male-to-female ratio 1/100) were diagnosed with breast cancer in Poland. In this period, 721,987 YLLs were linked to breast cancer. Women presented a higher 5- and 10-year age-standardized NS than men (5-year NS: 77.33% for women and 65.47% for men, P < 0.001, common language effect size (CL) 1.00; 10-year NS: 68.75% for women and 49.50% for men, P < 0.001, CL 1.00). Between the earliest and latest studied period, namely 2000–2004 and 2015–2019, there was a statistically significant increase only in female survival (+ 7.32 pp, P < 0.001, CL 1.00). SMRs were significantly higher for women than for men (3.35 vs. 2.89, respectively).

Conclusion
Over the last two decades, breast cancer survival in Poland has improved significantly. Nonetheless, special attention should be given to the disparities between sexes and the gap in overall improvement of survival rates compared with other European countries.

Published: December 2022

AbstractEmergency department (ED) visits for psychiatric care in the US reportedly declined during the COVID-19 pandemic. This work, however, does not control for strong temporal patterning in visits before the pandemic and does not examine a potential “rebound” in demand for psychiatric care following the relaxation of initial societal restrictions. Here, we examine COVID-19-related perturbations in psychiatric care during and after the 1st stage of societal restrictions in the largest safety-net hospital in Los Angeles. We retrieved psychiatric ED visit data (98,888 total over 156 weeks, Jan 2018 to Dec 2020) from Los Angeles County + USC Medical Center. We applied interrupted time series methods to identify and control for autocorrelation in psychiatric ED visits before examining their relation with the 1st stage of societal restrictions (i.e., March 13 to May 8, 2020), as well as the subsequent “rebound” period of relaxed restrictions (i.e., after May 8, 2020). Psychiatric ED visits fell by 78.13 per week (i.e., 12%) during the 1st stage of societal restrictions (SD = 23.99, p < 0.01). Reductions in ED visits for alcohol use, substance use, and (to a lesser extent) anxiety disorders accounted for the overall decline. After the 1st stage of societal restrictions, however, we observe no “rebound” above expected values in psychiatric ED visits overall (coef = − 16.89, SD = 20.58, p = 0.41) or by diagnostic subtype. This pattern of results does not support speculation that, at the population level, foregoing ED care during initial societal restrictions subsequently induced a psychiatric “pandemic” of urgent visits.
Impacts of the integral development of agriculture and tourism on agricultural eco-efficiency: a case study of two river basins in China
Authors: Wang Jingjing , Zhou Faming , Xie Ailiang , Shi Juan 
Published: December 2022

AbstractThe integral development of agriculture and tourism heavily depends on natural resources, especially agricultural resources, and it also may contribute to the sustainability of agriculture. The sustainability of agriculture is usually measured by the agricultural eco-efficiency. The main objective of this paper is to demonstrate the impact of the agriculture and tourism integration on agricultural eco-efficiency, so as to reflect the role of the agriculture and tourism integration on promoting agricultural sustainability. Applying panel data of 19 provinces in Yangtze River Basin and Yellow River Basin in China from 2008 to 2019, this paper uses a PSTR model to demonstrate the impact of agriculture and tourism integration on agricultural eco-efficiency and its mechanisms. It is found that in the study area, the integration of agriculture and tourism can contribute to improvements in agricultural eco-efficiency, and when levels of integration are high, the promotional effect is enhanced. However, impacts vary among different regions to some extent. In terms of influencing mechanisms, inputs of agricultural labor, sown crop area, effective irrigation area and other factors decrease with continuous improvements of integration. The input of pesticides, fertilizers and other factors does not decrease in the initial stage of integration but undergoes a rapid decrease after crossing a threshold value. And it demonstrates that the integration of agriculture and tourism is beneficial for improving the agricultural eco-efficiency, so that it will contribute to agricultural sustainability. Meanwhile, this paper offers a new research perspective for discovering effects of agriculture and tourism integration, providing implications for formulating regional policies for the integration.
In the thick of it: scope rivalry in past counterfactuals of Pomerano
Authors: Kaufmann Göz 
Published: December 2022

AbstractThis paper analyzes the morphosyntactic variation in past counterfactuals with modal verbs in Pomerano, a Low German variety spoken in Brazil. The variation concerns (i) the highest verb (temporal auxiliary or modal verb), (ii) the morphological form of the temporal auxiliary (blocking of tense and/or person agreement), (iii) the frequently unexpected position of the modal verb (verb clusters in the CP-domain), and (iv) the overall number of verbs (syntactic doubling and/or PF-insertion). Analyzing more than 6,000 translated sentences, scope rivalry between the temporal auxiliary and the modal verb proves to be the major catalyst of an intriguing instance of language variation and change. The derivation of the extant variants grants us a privileged view of the clausal architecture of Pomerano—including cases of derivational misfiring—as well as of more general processes of clause formation.
Increased arthropod biomass, abundance and species richness in an agricultural landscape after 32 years

Published: December 2022

Abstract
Recent studies reporting widespread declines in arthropod biomass, abundance and species diversity raised wide concerns in research and conservation. However, repeated arthropod surveys over long periods are rare, even though they are key for assessing the causes of the decline and for developing measures to halt the losses. We repeatedly sampled arthropod fauna in a representative Swiss agricultural landscape over 32 years (1987, 1997, 2019). Sampling included eight study sites in four different semi-natural and agricultural habitat types and different trap types (pitfall, window, yellow bucket) over an annual period of 10 weeks to capture flying and ground dwelling arthropod taxa. In total, we analyzed 58,448 individuals from 1343 different species. Mean arthropod biomass, abundance and species richness per trap was significantly higher in 2019 than in the prior years. Also, species diversity of the study area was highest in 2019. Three main factors likely have contributed to the observed positive or at least stable development. First, the implementation of agri-environmental schemes has improved habitat quality since 1993, 6 years after the first sampling. Second, landscape composition remained stable, and pesticide and fertilizer was constant over the study period. Third, climate warming might have favored the immigration and increase of warm adapted species. Our results support the idea that changes in arthropod communities over time is highly context-dependent and complex.

Implications for insect conservation
We conclude that the integration and long-term management of ecological compensation patches into a heterogenous agricultural landscape supports insect conservation and can contribute to stable or even increased arthropod abundance, biomass and diversity. Future studies are needed to clarify interdepending effects between agricultural management and climate change on insect communities.

Published: December 2022

AbstractAn electrophoretic deposition (EPD) process of micro-quartz (MQ) powder is applied to carbon fibers (CFs) with the aim to enhance their interfacial bond to cementitious matrices and to investigate its influence on the microstructural and mechanical properties of the CFs itself. The electrophoretic mobility of the MQ particles with negative charge in aqueous media was confirmed by potential sweep experiments and zeta-potential measurements. High amounts of MQ were successfully deposited onto the fiber surface, as proven by scanning electron microscopy. Single-fiber tension tests and thermogravimetric analysis showed that EPD treatment had little impact on the tensile properties and thermal stability of the modified fibers. However, storing the CFs in cement pore solution impaired temperature stability of untreated and modified fibers. X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy reveal specific changes of CF's microstructure upon EPD treatment and immersion in pore solution. Single-fiber pullout tests showed that the pullout resistance of MQ-modified CFs was enhanced, relative to untreated CFs. This augmentation can be explained by an enhanced interlocking mechanisms between CF and matrix due to the deposited quartz particles on the CF surface.

Abstract
The dual neural network (DNNW) model combines two neural networks to imitate artificial sedimentary facies division by learning the characteristics of multi-type logging curves corresponding to the sedimentary microfacies of a coring section. The model predicts many non-coring wells in the research zone through logging data. After comparing the classification performance of a fully connected neural network (FCNWW) and AutoML when dealing with three FNDA, EALS, and HRA datasets, the DNNW shows high stability and assists exploration in the Moxi gas field. Four sedimentary microfacies are identified through thin section observation, including thrombolite boundstone (MF1), laminated stromatolite boundstone (MF2), siliceous laminar boundstone (MF3), and micritic dolostone (MF4). Results suggest the fourth member of Dengying Formation in the Moxi gas field is carbonate platform facies deposition: specifically, restricted platform and platform margin.

Abstract
Background
Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) is an autoimmune demyelinating disorder of the central nervous system.

Methods
Extracted proteins from 34 cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples [patients with MOGAD (MOG group, n = 12); healthy controls (HC group, n = 12); patients with MOG seronegative and metagenomics next-generation sequencing-negative inflammatory neurological diseases (IND group, n = 10)] were processed and subjected to label-free quantitative proteomics. Supervised partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) and orthogonal PLS-DA (O-PLS-DA) models were also performed based on proteomics data. Functional analysis of differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) was performed using Gene Ontology, InterPro, and Kyoto Encyclopedia Genes and Genomes. An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to determine the complement levels in serum from patients with MOGAD.

Results
Four hundred and twenty-nine DEPs (149 upregulated and 280 downregulated proteins) were identified in the MOG group compared to the HC group according to the P value and fold change (FC). Using the O-PLS-DA model, 872 differentially abundant proteins were identified with variable importance projection (VIP) scores > 1. Five proteins (gamma-glutamyl hydrolase, cathepsin F, interalpha-trypsin inhibitor heavy chain 5, latent transforming growth factor beta-binding protein 4 and leukocyte-associated immunoglobulin-like receptor 1) overlapping between the top 30 DEPs with top-ranked P value and FC and top 30 proteins in PLS-DA VIP lists were acquired. Functional analysis revealed that the dysregulated proteins in the MOG group were primarily involved in complement and coagulation cascades, cell adhesion, axon guidance, and glycosphingolipid biosynthesis compared to the HC group.

Conclusion
The proteomic alterations in CSF samples from children with MOGAD identified in the current study might provide opportunities for developing novel biomarker candidates.
