AbstractObjectiveThis work aimed to analyze the role of family conflict on children's emotion regulation and stress outcomes during the COVID‐19 pandemic.BackgroundThe COVID‐19 pandemic brought novel stress to families. The stress experienced could impact family relationships—specifically, perceptions of closeness and patterns of conflict. Positive family environment and high‐quality family relationships are associated with adaptive coping and lower levels of stress among children.MethodData were collected online from 110 participants at baseline and again 30 days later. Associations between parent–child relationship, sibling relationships, and child stress and emotion regulation outcomes 30 days later were tested through multiple stepwise regression.ResultsBoth significant regression models suggest that parent–child conflict is the strongest predictor of child stress and negativity over the 30‐day assessment period. Sibling conflict predicted child stress but not negativity.ConclusionFamily conflict during the COVID‐19 pandemic influenced children's emotion regulation outcomes as seen through significant associations between child–parent conflict, sibling conflict, perceived child stress, and children's negativity.ImplicationsFamily scientists and practitioners should consider interventions that help parents teach their children how to cope with their own stresses and emotions after conflict.
Taking stock: Is recovery of a depleted population possible in a changing climate?
Authors: Langan Joseph A. , Bell Richard J. , Collie Jeremy S. 
Published: June 2022

AbstractAs the impacts of climate change become more severe throughout the global oceans, fisheries managers will be increasingly challenged to rebuild stocks exhibiting declining productivity. In such cases, detailed knowledge of species life history will be necessary to both restrict harvest and manage other environmental conditions, where possible, that impact survivorship. A current example of these challenges, the Southern New England/Mid‐Atlantic Bight winter flounder stock remains in a persistently depleted state due to a combination of past harvest and the effects of climate change mediated through increased predation. To explore the recovery capacity of a subpopulation of this stock, a life‐cycle model was fit to 29 year classes of stage‐specific winter flounder data from surveys conducted in Narragansett Bay, Rhode Island and used to project future subpopulation abundance. Supporting a prevailing hypothesis, the results indicated that environmental factors influencing juvenile mortality were largely responsible for inhibiting recovery. Furthermore, recovery of the subpopulation to past levels of abundance was determined to be unlikely even under optimistic future conditions resulting from aggressive management interventions. Taken together, the findings of this work pose important questions regarding the realism of assessing climate‐challenged populations against biological reference points set under past environmental regimes and the degree to which harvest restrictions to promote recovery of such stocks should be allowed to limit warm‐water fisheries thriving in a warming ocean.

AbstractThe morphogenesis of most carbonaceous microstructures that resemble microfossils in Archean (4–2.5 Ga old) rocks remains debated. The associated carbonaceous matter may even—in some cases—derive from abiotic organic molecules. Mineral growths associated with organic matter migration may mimic microbial cells, some anatomical features, and known microfossils—in particular those with simple spheroid shapes. Here, spheroid microstructures from a chert of the ca. 3.4 Ga Strelley Pool Formation (SPF) of the Pilbara Craton (Western Australia) were imaged and analyzed with a combination of high‐resolution in situ techniques. This provides new insights into carbonaceous matter distributions and their relationships with the crystallographic textures of associated quartz. Thus, we describe five new types of spheroids and discuss their morphogenesis. In at least three types of microstructures, wall coalescence argues for migration of carbonaceous matter onto abiotic siliceous spherulites or diffusion in poorly crystalline silica. The nanoparticulate walls of these coalescent structures often cut across multiple quartz crystals, consistent with migration in/on silica prior to quartz recrystallization. Sub‐continuous walls lying at quartz boundaries occur in some coalescent vesicles. This weakens the “continuous carbonaceous wall” criterion proposed to support cellular inferences. In contrast, some clustered spheroids display wrinkled sub‐continuous double walls, and a large sphere shows a thick sub‐continuous wall with pustules and depressions. These features appear consistent withpost‐mortemcell alteration, although abiotic morphogenesis remains difficult to rule out. We compared these siliceous and carbonaceous microstructures to coalescent pyritic spheroids from the same sample, which likely formed as “colloidal” structures in hydrothermal context. The pyrites display a smaller size and only limited carbonaceous coatings, arguing that they could not have acted as precursors to siliceous spheroids. This study revealed new textural features arguing for abiotic morphogenesis of some Archean spheroids. The absence of these features in distinct types of spheroids leaves open the microfossil hypothesis in the same rock. Distinction of such characteristics could help addressing further the origin of other candidate microfossils. This study calls for similar investigations of metamorphosed microfossiliferous rocks and of the products of in vitro growth of cell‐mimicking structures in presence of organics and silica.
Locked down? Speaking from the shadows and silence for survival
Authors: Hussein Rima Patricia 
Published: June 2022

AbstractI write to speak of silencing and the suffering of survivors of domestic abuse in the family courts of England and Wales and the struggle to find a voice to articulate the hardship faced in this lockdown through court. It has taken the whole period of lockdown to find the words, the courage to keep writing, even as tears stream down my face, even as I sit in a virtual court hearing, even as my voice breaks as I fight to be heard. This text is a glimpse into a world that is hidden in plain view, where I will share fragments of my lived experience. I am scared to write but know I speak or am lost in the silent void that I have known for too long. Domestic abuse and the taboo around it screams at me to remain unseen, hidden, and invisible. I keep returning to find the words, as the very real cost of not naming the violence and reaching out to speak through it is too high. The fragmented account that follows is a raw telling of living life through the court system; it is written to share a voice that was unheard in the family law court and has been minimized, side‐lined, ordered, and silenced through 3 years of the court journey and the embodied effects this has had. It moves between space and time to show a journey endured. Can you hear me? Will you bear witness?
When transparency pays off: Enticing sceptical consumers with two‐sided advertising

Published: June 2022

AbstractIt has been generally assumed that higher levels of scepticism towards advertising invariably lead to higher resistance to advertising appeals. The main purpose of the present research was to examine whether highly sceptical consumers' resistance can be overcome by appeals associated with higher credibility. We tested our hypotheses using message sidedness as an advertising variable that has been associated with higher (two‐sided) versus lower (one‐sided) credibility. In three experimental studies, we examined more versus less sceptical consumers' responses to two‐ versus one‐sided appeals. We found that two‐sided messages are more effective in increasing purchase intentions, through enhanced credibility, but only for consumers who are more sceptical of advertising. Less sceptical consumers trust both messages equally and their purchase intentions are not affected by the type of message. Importantly, we also showed that highly sceptical consumers trust two‐sided appeals as much as their less sceptical counterparts. The study contributes to the literature on advertising and persuasion knowledge by showing that advertising scepticism does not elicit a single response tendency, as originally conceptualized. Rather, advertising scepticism is more consistent with the underpinnings of the Persuasion Knowledge Model, in that higher knowledge about persuasion tactics aids consumers to better cope with, and not invariably resist persuasion attempts. We conclude that transparency pays off because it may entice a more sceptical audience and, at the same time, it does not harm less sceptical consumers' trust and purchase intentions.

ObjectivesThe present study aimed to assess the antimicrobial and antiadhesion behavior of quercetin‐loaded chitosan nanoparticles in Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus multidrug‐resistant isolates.MethodsThe ionic gelation method was used to prepare chitosan nanoparticles loaded with quercetin. The antimicrobial and antibiofilm effects were observed by minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), plate count, crystal violet assay, and the matrix exopolysaccharide dosages. The nanoparticles coated in silicone urethral catheters were evaluated by crystal violet assay and plating count method.ResultsMIC ranged from 6.25 to 12.5 mg/ml. A reduction of at least 3.6 log CFU/ml and 6.2 log CFU/ml for, respectively, E. coli and S. aureus isolates was observed (p < 0.05). Under subinhibitory concentration (3.1 mg/ml) it was found a reduction of microbial adhesion and exopolysaccharide dosages in respectively 83.3% and 75% of the bacterial samples. The coated silicone urethral catheters showed a reduction of adhered cells in 25% of the isolates and biomass decreasing in 91.6% of them (p < 0.05).ConclusionsThe quercetin nanoparticles provided antimicrobial and antiadhesion effects in multidrug‐resistant isolates.

Published: June 2022

AbstractProtection in the region has rapidly become a favoured durable solution to refugee situations and the hallmark of all current policies. These initiatives reflect changes in humanitarian approaches that have taken place over the past decades as the focus has shifted towards the resilience of crisis‐affected communities and the need to enable their self‐reliance. Despite the strong logic that this change will bring about more dignified solutions, the approach is easily instrumentalized. This instrumentalization is particularly evident where resilience humanitarianism meets security‐migration politics. This paper focuses on the efforts of the European Union and a number of its member states to advance so‐called protection in the region. The paper reviews the characteristics of these policies, highlights a number of risks and defines some known and lesser known implications of this approach.

AbstractInvestigating the combined effects of elevated CO2 concentration and water‐deficit on weed plants is crucial to gaining a thorough understanding of plant performance and modifying agricultural processes under changing climate conditions. This study examined the effect of elevated CO2 concentration and water‐deficit conditions on leaf gas exchange, water use efficiency, carboxylation efficiency and the photosystem II (PSII) activity of two Salvia verbenaca L., varieties. These varieties were grown under two CO2 concentrations (ambient conditions of 400 ppm and elevated conditions of 700 ppm) and two water regimes (well‐watered [100% field capacity] and water‐deficit conditions [60% field capacity]) in laboratory growth chambers. For 12 days, at 2‐day intervals, (i) leaf gas exchange parameters (photosynthesis rate, stomatal conductance, transpiration rate (E) and intercellular CO2 concentration (Ci)), (ii) water use efficiency (WUE), (iii) intrinsic water use efficiency (IWUE), (iv) instantaneous carboxylation efficiency and (v) PSII activity (fluorescence, quantum yield of PSII, photochemical efficiency of PSII, photochemical quenching and photosynthetic electron transport) were measured. Water‐deficit conditions had negative effects on studied parameters of both varieties, whereas elevated CO2 concentration had positive effects on the gas exchange, water use efficiency and PSII activity of both. Salvia verbenaca varieties grown under water‐deficit conditions from Day 0 to Day 5 showed a partial recovery in most of the parameters when the resumption of the well‐watered regime was reinstituted on Day 6. Salvia verbenaca varieties grown under water‐deficit conditions were re‐watered on day 6 and indicated a partial recovery in all the parameters. A comparison of the two varieties showed that var. vernalis recorded higher values of gas exchange, quantum yield of PSII and photochemical efficiency of PSII than var. verbenaca, but the water use efficiency of var. verbenaca was higher than that of var. vernalis. These differences serve to illustrate the complexity of such studies and suggest that a detailed understanding of the nature of weed infestations is essential if optimum management control is to be practiced. Elevated CO2 concentration mitigated the adverse effects of water‐deficit conditions and thereby enhanced the adaptive mechanism of this weed by improving its water use efficiency. It is thus likely that S. verbenaca has the potential to take advantage of climate change by increasing its relative competitiveness with other plants in drought‐prone areas, suggesting that it could significantly expand its invasive range under such conditions.
Micro/nanostructured Bi2Mn4O10 with hierarchical spindle morphology as a highly efficient anode material for lithium‐ion batteries
Authors: Cheng Cuixia , Cheng Yinfang , Lai Guosong 
Published: June 2022

AbstractMullite‐type compound Bi2Mn4O10 has shown the feasibility as anodes of next lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs). Herein micro/nano‐Bi2Mn4O10 with hierarchical spindle‐like architectures has been successfully synthesized using a one‐step hydrothermal method without any no surfactant or template. A time‐dependent experiment is carried out to observe the morphology evolution, suggesting a nucleation–aggregation/growth–dissolution–recrystallization process. As anode of LIBs, the as‐prepared spindle‐shaped micro/nano Bi2Mn4O10 harvests a significantly high initial discharge capacity of 1022 mA h g−1 at 1 C, an excellent cyclability performance (563.8 mA h g−1 after 400 cycles), a better high‐rate capability (100 mA h g−1 at 10 C), quick diffusion kinetics (1.8 × 10−12 cm2 s−1), and low active energy (19.5 kJ mol−1), which are significantly superior to that of its bulk counterparts and the previous reports. The encouraging lithium storage performance largely stems from the synergistic effect of the unique spindle‐shaped micro/nanostructure.

AbstractA “self‐permeation” method was used to fabricate a Ca0.9La0.067TiO3‐0.01Al2O3 (CLT)‐reinforced polysilylaryl‐enyne/fiber multilayer board with different volume fractions of CLT (0–40 vol%). The microstructure, dielectric, mechanical, and thermal properties were fully studied. The results showed that the composite with optimal dielectric properties (εr∼8.75, tanδ∼0.0043) could be obtained when the volume fraction of CLT reached 30 vol%. Meanwhile, the thermal conductivity reached a high level of 0.644 W/(m·K) and 0.762 W/(m·K) at Z and X/Y directions, respectively. Due to the high decomposition temperature of PSAE, Td5 (the temperature corresponding to 5% weight loss) of composite loading with 30 vol% CLT was higher than 900℃, which indicates an excellent thermal resistance. And the bending strength could reach 115.3 MPa indicating excellent mechanical property. The novel polysilylaryl‐enyne/fiber/Ca0.9La0.067TiO3‐0.01Al2O3 multilayer board with excellent performance is expected to be a candidate material for print circuit boards and widely used in the microwave communication field.

AbstractArrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) is a genetic disease associated with sudden cardiac death and cardiac fibro‐fatty replacement. Over the last years, several works have demonstrated that different epigenetic enzymes can affect not only gene expression changes in cardiac diseases but also cellular metabolism. Specifically, the histone acetyltransferase GCN5 is known to facilitate adipogenesis and modulate cardiac metabolism in heart failure. Our group previously demonstrated that human primary cardiac stromal cells (CStCs) contribute to adipogenesis in the ACM pathology. Thus, this study aims to evaluate the role of GCN5 in ACM intracellular lipid accumulation. To do so, CStCs were obtained from right ventricle biopsies of ACM patients and from samples of healthy cadaveric donors (CTR). GCN5 expression was increased both in ex vivo and in vitro ACM samples compared to CTR. When GCN5 expression was silenced or pharmacologically inhibited by the administration of MB‐3, we observed a reduction in lipid accumulation and a mitigation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in ACM CStCs. In agreement, transcriptome analysis revealed that the presence of MB‐3 modified the expression of pathways related to cellular redox balance. Altogether, our findings suggest that GCN5 inhibition reduces fat accumulation in ACM CStCs, partially by modulating intracellular redox balance pathways.

AbstractAimComparison of grading according to radiographic bone loss (BL) or according to interdental clinical attachment loss (CAL).Materials and MethodsIn 100 periodontitis patients at the Department of Periodontology of Goethe‐University Frankfurt, Germany, periodontitis grade was assigned by (i) indirect evidence using BL at the most affected tooth divided by root length and (ii) CAL at the most affected tooth divided by root length of the respective tooth type according to root length in German and Swedish cohorts. The resulting quotients were divided by age.ResultsPatients (age: 53.5 ± 10.4 years; 57 females; 16 smokers; no diabetes; stage: 78 III, 22 IV) were by either method assigned to grade B or C (BL: 35 B, 65 C; CAL [German]: 23 B, 77 C; [Swedish]: 29 B, 71 C). Using root length (German cohort), agreement was 76% (kappa: 0.427; fair to good/moderate agreement) and 72% (Swedish cohort; kappa: 0.359; poor/fair agreement). Molars were most frequently chosen (BL: 64%; CAL: 71%).ConclusionsAssignment of periodontitis grade by indirect evidence using BL or CAL using standard root length of the German cohort showed fair to good/moderate agreement. Thus, grade assignment by CAL may be used in epidemiologic studies where radiographs are not available.
Both metaxin and Tom20 together with two mitochondria‐specific motifs support mitochondrial targeting of dual‐targeting AtSufE1

Published: June 2022

AbstractPlant cells have two endosymbiotic organelles, chloroplasts, and mitochondria. These organelles perform specific functions that depend on organelle‐specific proteins. The majority of chloroplast and mitochondrial proteins are specifically imported by the transit peptide and presequence, respectively. However, a significant number of proteins are also dually targeted to these two organelles. Currently, it is not fully understood how proteins are dually targeted to both chloroplasts and mitochondria. In this study, the mechanism underlying mitochondrial targeting of dual targeting AtSufE1 in Arabidopsis was elucidated. The N‐terminal fragment containing 80 residues of AtSufE1 (AtSufE1N80) was sufficient to confer dual targeting of reporter protein, AtSufE1N80:GFP, in protoplasts. Two sequence motifs, two arginine residues at 15thand 21stpositions, and amino acid (aa) sequence motif AKTLLLRPLK from the 31stto 40thaa position, were responsible for targeting to mitochondria a portion of reporter proteins amid the chloroplast targeting. The sequence motif PSEVPFRRT from the 41stto 50thaa position constitutes a common motif for targeting to both chloroplasts and mitochondria. For mitochondrial import of AtSufE1:N80, Metaxin played a critical role. In addition, BiFC and protein pull‐down experiments showed that AtSufE1N80 specifically interacts with import receptors, Metaxin and Tom20. The interaction of AtSufE1N80 with Metaxin was required for the interaction with Tom20. Based on these results, we propose that mitochondrial targeting of dual‐targeting AtSufE1 is mediated by both mitochondria‐specific and common sequence motifs in the signal sequence through the interaction with import receptors, Metaxin and Tom20, in a successive manner.
