Published: February 2025

Abstract‘Georgia‐24NHO’ (Reg. no. CV‐160, PI 706577) is a new high‐yielding, very high‐oleic, Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV)‐resistant, and root‐knot nematode (RKN) [Meloidogyne arenaria (Neal) Chitwood]‐resistant, large‐seeded, runner‐type peanut (Arachis hypogaea L. subsp. hypogaea var. hypogaea) cultivar that was released by the Georgia Agricultural Experiment Station in 2024. It was developed at the University of Georgia, Tifton Campus. Georgia‐24NHO originated from a cross made between ‘Georgia‐06G’ × GA 122704. Georgia‐06G is a normal‐oleic, TSWV‐resistant, large‐seeded, runner‐type peanut cultivar. GA 122704 is a high‐oleic, RKN‐resistant, advanced Georgia breeding line. Pedigree selection was practiced within the early segregating generations. Performance testing began in the F4:6 generation with the advanced pure‐line selection, GA 192710. During the past 3 years (2021–2023) averaged over 13 multiple location tests without nematode pressure in Georgia, Georgia‐24NHO had significantly less total disease incidence than ‘Georgia‐14N’. Georgia‐24NHO was also found to have a larger runner seed size as compared to the smaller runner‐type check cultivar, Georgia‐14N. Georgia‐24NHO combines high‐yield, TSWV‐resistance, and RKN‐resistance with large seed size and the very high‐oleic trait for longer shelf‐life and improved oil quality of peanut and peanut products.

Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTThe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) placed an unprecedented burden on the global healthcare system, severely affecting the physical and mental health of healthcare workers, particularly nurses. Nurses faced immense workloads, increased infection risks, uncertainty, and public scrutiny. Despite these challenges, nurses were lauded for their dedication and resilience in confronting the pandemic. Many experienced mortality, morbidity, and post‐COVID sequelae. This review integrates psychological resilience literature from 2020 to 2022, utilizing Whittemore and Knafl's integrative review method. A total of 22 studies met the inclusion criteria, focusing on how nurses demonstrated resilience during the COVID‐19 crisis. Most studies reported a moderate level of resilience, with a mean score of 62.54. Factors such as positive acceptance of change, trust in personal judgment, perceived competence, and spiritual influences were positively associated with resilience, whereas burnout, anxiety, and depressive thoughts negatively impacted it. Resilience was found to mediate the relationships between variables like perceived stress, emotional exhaustion, and quality of life. The literature suggests that healthcare administrations should foster a healthy work environment, maintain an optimistic outlook, and establish strong connections with frontline staff to mitigate the pandemic's impact. Providing supportive environments, resilience training, and mental health interventions will be crucial in enhancing resilience for future crises.

Authors: Tian Zhimei , He Dongyang , Sun Jingzhe , Zhang Tao , Song Chongfu 
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTThe structures and properties of PtAgn (n = 1–16) clusters have been studied by density functional theory (DFT). The Tpssh/def2‐TZVP method is chosen in this work. Calculations reveal that the structures of PtAgn (n = 1–16) clusters are planar structures when n = 1–3, while they present three‐dimensional structures when n = 4–16. The coordination number of the Pt atom in PtAgn (n = 1–16) clusters are in the range of 1–11. Pt atoms in PtAgn (n = 1–16) clusters prefer to locate in the centers of the structures. The electronic structures are compared with available experimental and theoretical data. The stability analysis manifests that the clusters have odd‐even stability properties. The study of catalytic properties on PtAgn (n = 1–16) clusters perform similar interactions with one CO molecule. The Pt atom favors interacting with the carbon terminal of the CO molecule. According to the thermodynamic property study, the adsorption reactions of PtAgn (n = 1–16) and CO are all spontaneous. The stability of PtAgnCO (n = 1–16) clusters present odd‐even properties. The projected density of states (PDOS) study reveals that the orbital hybridization phenomenon is present between the Pt and C atoms in the PtAg6CO cluster.

Published: February 2025

AbstractRed yeast rice (RYR), fermented from Monascus purpureus, has demonstrated anti‐inflammatory, anticancer, antibacterial properties, and potential antiviral activity. However, its low water solubility hampers its broader application. With the growing interest in carbon dots (CDs) for antiviral research, efforts to create new antiviral CDs that are highly compatible with living organisms and have strong antiviral properties have been sped up. In this study, the hydrothermal approach was employed to synthesize highly biocompatible CDs (abbreviated as RYR‐CDs) using red yeast rice as the precursor. Using porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), a coronavirus model, RYR‐CDs were shown to reduce PEDV proliferation by two orders of magnitude, as evidenced by virus titers and N protein expression analysis. Further studies have shown that RYR‐CDs can inhibit absorption, while also triggering the antiviral innate immune response. Additionally, RYR‐CDs have antioxidant ability and can inhibit the increase of ROS content caused by viral infection and inhibit cell apoptosis caused by changes in mitochondrial membrane potential. These findings suggest that RYR‐CDs exert potent antiviral effects through a multifaceted inhibition mechanism, offering food‐derived materials as promising candidates for the treatment of PEDV infections.

Published: February 2025

AbstractDeveloping efficient electrocatalysts that improve the rate‐determining step (RDS) kinetics is crucial to addressing the kinetically sluggish oxygen evolution reaction (OER). This study introduces ruthenium (Ru)‐cobalt(II) hydroxide (Co(OH)₂) electrocatalysts for high‐performance OER by combining compositional and thermodynamic surface engineering. Density functional theory (DFT) is employed to identify the ideal composition, with experimental validation conducted through electrodeposition, enabling facile control over a wide range of compositions for nanowire catalyst synthesis. Pourbaix diagram analysis helps establish precise synthesis conditions for developing surface nanostructures. The optimized Ru‐Co(OH)₂ catalyst demonstrates exceptional performance, achieving overpotentials of 189 mV at 10 mA cm⁻2 and 292 mV at 50 mA cm⁻2, significantly outperforming other compositions. The exceptional electrocatalytic performance can be attributed to two key factors: strengthened OH adsorption energy due to optimal composition, which lowers the energy barrier of the rate‐determining step in the OER, and increased specific surface area resulting from surface nanostructure formation.

Published: February 2025

AbstractMimicking the structure of natural enzyme active sites offers a promising strategy for the rational design of nanozymes. However, this biomimetic approach predominantly focuses on replicating the configuration of the metal active center in natural enzymes, often overlooking the critical influence of the catalytic site's microenvironment. Here, inspired by the active center and coordination microenvironment of natural organophosphorus hydrolase (OPH), Ce2O2CN2/NC, a novel cerium‐based nanozyme is first reported to mimic OPH. In Ce2O2CN2/NC, Ce species serve as active sites, while the adjacent N site ([N═C═N]2−) functions as a general base, mimicking histidine in natural enzymes to facilitate the hydrolysis process. Using paraoxon as a model target, Ce2O2CN2/NC demonstrates rapid dephosphorylation of phosphotriester across a wide range of temperatures and pH values, significantly outperforming natural OPH and CeO2 nanoparticles. The systematic experiments and theoretical calculations reveal the underlying mechanisms responsible for the enhanced OPH‐mimicking performance. Capitalizing on its phosphatase‐like activity, Ce2O2CN2/NC nanozyme is successfully employed to develop a colorimetric biosensor for the rapid and selective detection of organophosphorus pesticides. This study holds great promise in developing efficient nanozymes and broadens the range of Ce‐based nanozymes.

AbstractLayered double hydroxides (LDHs) exhibit great potential in electrocatalytic water splitting due to the unique 2D feature and an adjustable structure composed of different metal centers. In addition, LDHs have the advantage of being inherently inexpensive compared to other catalysts and have good stability in electrocatalytic water splitting. Up to now, numerous methods have been put forward to improve the activity of LDHs in electrocatalytic water splitting, a comprehensive introduction and comb to the fabrication methods and modification strategies is helpful for the followers to get a clear vein to carry out efficient manipulation to the development of high promising LDHs catalysts. In this review, the basic principles of water electrolysis, and the evaluation indexes are introduced first, and then the basic properties and commonly utilized methods in the fabrication of LDHs are introduced. After that, the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), and overall water splitting (OWS) performance of different LDHs‐based catalysts and analyze the merits and shortcomings of LDHs in electrocatalytic water splitting is compared. Based on this, the advanced strategies for improving the performance of LDHs is introduced and give a brief prospect for the development of LDHs‐based materials in electrocatalysis.

AbstractThe development of high‐performance photocatalysts is essential for advancing sustainable hydrogen production. In the present work, an innovative approach to electron lifetime engineering aimed at enhancing the photocatalytic performance of 1D CdS nanowires by strategically incorporating Ni and titanium nitride (TiN) layers. It demonstrates the electron lifetime mechanism of 1D photocatalyst can be optimized through the introduction of uneven surface and heterojunction. The lifetime of electrons is influenced by the interplay between geometry and electronic structure, directly correlating with photocatalytic efficiency in an exponential decay pattern. Time‐correlated single photon counting (TCSPC) measurements provide detailed insights into recombination events and non‐radiative properties. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy (UPS) analyses reveal that the prolonged electron lifetime in CdS/Ni/TiN photocatalysts is attributed to the combination of the uneven surface and the passivation of surface energy state on CdS. The single‐molecule surface catalytic sites are also observed from super‐resolution fluorescence imaging. This perspective first illustrates an integrated discussion on hydrogen production, optical properties, electronic structure, and surface‐active sites. The optimal heterostructured CdS achieves a 20.55‐fold improvement in hydrogen production. Electron lifetime engineering offers a promising pathway in high‐performance 1D photocatalysts for hydrogen production and other energy conversion applications.

Published: February 2025

ABSTRACTBackgroundIn Nepal, cows and buffaloes are common livestock used in subsistence farming and are often afflicted by helminth and protozoan parasites.ObjectivesThis study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of intestinal parasitic infections (IPIs) and contributing (i.e., previously suggested to be associated with IPIs) factors affecting bovine calves in the Birgunj region, Nepal.MethodsFrom June to December 2023, 200 faecal samples (100 from commercial farms and 100 from subsistence farms) were collected and analysed using flotation and sedimentation techniques. Contributing factors were systematically obtained using structured questionnaires and direct field observations.ResultsOverall, 62% of the samples contained oocysts or eggs of intestinal parasites. The identified species included one protozoan (Eimeria spp., 7.5%), five nematodes (Strongyloides spp., 15.5%; Ostertagia spp., 6.5%; Haemonchus spp., 4.5%; Toxocara spp. and 11.5%; Ascaris spp., 4%) and two trematodes (Fasciola spp., 20%; Paramphistomum spp., 13%). The Fasciola spp. prevalence was notably higher in calves from subsistence farms compared to commercial farms (p = 0.015). Buffalo calves presented higher rates of Fasciola spp. and dual infections (p = 0.001), whereas cow calves presented a greater prevalence of Toxocara spp. (p = 0.046). Calves grazing near riverbanks presented significantly higher odds (adjusted odds ratio [aOR]: 2.76, 95% confidence interval (CI) [1.07–7.14]) of any IPIs, even after adjusting for other significant factors in a bivariate model. Factors, such as free‐range rearing, subsistence farming and grazing on riverbank grasses, were linked to higher odds of Fasciola spp. infection in the bivariate model, but only the presence of buffalo calves ([aOR]: 2.64, 95% CI [1.03–6.76]) remained significant after mutual adjustment (i.e., in the multivariate model).ConclusionsThese findings underscore the significant burden of intestinal parasites in young calves, highlighting the need for regular inspections and preventive measures.
Comparison of exterior power operations on higher K-theory of schemes
Authors: Köck Bernhard , Zanchetta Ferdinando 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
Exterior power operations provide an additional structure on K-groups of schemes which lies at the heart of Grothendieck’s Riemann-Roch theory. Over the past decades, various authors have constructed such operations on higher K-theory. In this paper, we prove that these constructions actually yield the same operations, ultimately matching up the explicit combinatorial description by Harris, the first author and Taelman on the one hand and the recent, conceptually clear-cut construction by Barwick, Glasman, Mathew and Nikolaus on the other hand. This also leads to the proof of a conjecture by the first author about composition of these operations in the equivariant context, completing the proof that higher equivariant K-groups satisfy all axioms of a

Published: February 2025

Abstract
This study presents the development of a sophisticated liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry approach leveraging hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) for the quantification of kanamycin and spectinomycin in fermentation media. The method was validated per International Council for Harmonisation guidelines, demonstrating robust linearity, precision, and accuracy. To mitigate pronounced matrix effects common to complex fermentation matrices, sample preparation was thoroughly optimized with solid-phase extraction employing MCX sorbent, thereby enhancing recovery rates and minimizing analytical interference. The validated protocol demonstrated high correlation coefficients (R > 0.998), underscoring its robustness and reliability for the accurate quantification of antibiotics in challenging bioprocess environments, providing a valuable analytical tool for bioreactor system monitoring.

Authors: Coskun Benlidayi Ilke , Deniz Volkan , Ornek Ceren , Sariyildiz Aylin 
Published: February 2025

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate deep tendon reflex responses and associated electrophysiological parameters of the muscles in patients with fibromyalgia. This cross-sectional study included 38 patients with fibromyalgia and 32 age- and sex-matched controls. Deep tendon reflexes of the rectus femoris and triceps brachii were tested using a reflex hammer. Electromyographic (amplitude and duration of activation), inertial measurement unit (angular velocity, acceleration), and electromechanical (delay) analyses were performed using a surface electromyography (sEMG) device. Comparative analyses were carried out between patients and controls. Additionally, Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) analysis was performed to evaluate the ability of hyperreflexia in distinguishing fibromyalgia patients from controls. Hyperactive deep tendon reflexes in the right/left rectus femoris and/or triceps brachii were observed in more than 85% (ranging from 86.8 to 94.7%) of the fibromyalgia group. Patients with fibromyalgia exhibited significantly increased deep tendon reflex responses compared to controls (p < 0.001). Patients revealed significantly higher amplitude, longer duration of muscle activation, greater sagittal acceleration and angular velocity, and shorter electromechanical delay. Normalized muscle activation (right and left rectus femoris and right triceps brachii) in response to deep tendon reflex test showed acceptable ability in differentiating fibromyalgia patients from controls (Area under curve (AUC) = 0.890, 0.784 and 0.782, respectively). For the right rectus femoris, values ≤ 28.3 (clinically corresponding to normoactive/hypoactive deep tendon reflexes) appeared to rule-out fibromyalgia with 94.1% sensitivity and 61.3% specificity. Patients with fibromyalgia exhibit increased deep tendon reflex responses. Normal or decreased deep tendon reflex responses may probably be used as a rule-out criterion for fibromyalgia.

Published: February 2025

Abstract
Assessing the extent to which the quality of family planning (FP) delivery in facilities makes a difference for key outcomes such as service satisfaction or contraceptive discontinuation is of key interest to the family planning field. However, assessment of this relationship is methodologically challenging due to differences in populations served across facilities. Furthermore, data that connect facilities to the populations served are limited. We use novel data from the Performance Monitoring for Action (PMA) project and a new methodological approach to examine the relationship between facility level characteristics and FP outcomes. The PMA data consist of facility surveys and client exit interviews, and capture women’s FP outcomes and include information on characteristics of the individual woman, the facility where the woman obtained her family planning services, and follow-up information on contraceptive use. We use a design-based direct standardization method to balance the distribution of populations served across facilities while controlling for the additional variability induced by the balancing weights. We find significant evidence of variation in FP outcomes across facilities that cannot be accounted for by differences in women characteristics. The type of facility (e.g., dispensary), their size, the proportion of staff present, and whether the facility was public were associated with more positive service satisfaction. A higher ratio of staff to FP visits was predictive of lower contraceptive discontinuation.

Published: February 2025

Abstract
Turbulence promoters are a widely used strategy to improve the working of solar air heaters in many industrial applications. This paper demonstrates the improvement in turbulent air due to the breakage of laminar sublayers by inserting a quadrilateral-shaped solar air heater with turbulence promoters (having an equilateral triangle shape) on the absorber plate. The performance of the proposed solar air heater is evaluated numerically with the computational fluid dynamics for the considered parameters. A comprehensive study is done to determine the impact of rib height (0.021–0.042), rib pitch (10–25), and relative roughness pitch (7.14–35.71) on the heat transfer parameters, as measured by the THPP. The findings demonstrate that the equilateral triangle roughness features create longitudinal vortices and establish areas of flow impingement, which substantially impact the flow and heat transfer properties of the air within the solar air heater. The heat transfer improved by 141% with the use of the turbulence promotors over the simple system without turbulators. The maximum performance characteristics of the system correspond to the e/D of 0.042 with a P/e of 7.14 at a Reynolds number of 15,000. Empirical correlations are employed to find the relation between Nu and f, which predicted the values with an average deviation of 4.25% and 2.45%, respectively.
