Published: July 2022

AbstractBolaamphiphilic polyphenol flavonoids were successfully revealed as a sustainable coating at the solid/liquid interface of an aluminium surface in an aqueous solution. Polyphenol flavonoids extracted from brown onions demonstrated the presence of bolaamphiphiles above 600 ppm. Characterization of the polyphenol flavonoids coating was performed using spectroscopic 1H‐nuclear magnetic resonance and attenuated total reflectance Fourier‐transform infrared techniques for chemical identification, UV–vis and optical microscopy techniques were used for bolaamphiphilic microstructures assessment, and a scanning electron microscope was used for the assessment of surface morphology. Variant operating conditions used to show best coating efficacy were as follows: concentration = 600 ppm, solution pH = 10 in the presence of PO43− ion cross‐linker, operating temperature = 10°C, microwave pre‐irradiation time = 5 s, and turbulent flow of the solution = 300 rpm. Maximum coating efficacy showed a coating efficacy of 97%. The suitability of several adsorption isotherms, like Langmuir, Temkin, and Freundlich, was tested to fit our data. Equilibrium constant values were in favour of successful coating, especially at lower temperatures (20°C). Spontaneous (negative ΔG°) and high affinities of coating material to the surface were revealed from thermodynamic parameters (ΔH° and ΔS°). Conclusively, such research is meant to emphasize our continuous support for the use of plant waste in artificial sectors such as coating of metals, and for their economic feasibility and low cost as high efficacy renewable materials.

BackgroundWeight gain after a breast cancer diagnosis is common and is associated with inferior outcomes. Young survivors may be especially susceptible to weight changes given the impact of treatment on menopausal status.MethodsThe authors identified women who were diagnosed with stage 0 to III breast cancer at age 40 years or younger between 2006 and 2016 from a multicenter prospective cohort. Self‐reported weight was collected at diagnosis and at 1 year and 3 years postdiagnosis. Tumor and treatment data were obtained from medical records and patient surveys. Multinomial logistic regression was used to identify the factors associated with weight gain (≥5%) or weight loss (≥5%) versus stable weight at 1 year and 3 years postdiagnosis.ResultsThe cohort included 956 women with a median age of 37 years at diagnosis. Mean weight significantly increased over time from 66.54 ± 14.85 kg at baseline to 67.33 ± 15.53 and 67.77 ± 14.65 kg at 1 year and 3 years, respectively (p ≤ .001 for both comparisons). The proportion of women experiencing ≥5% weight gain increased from 24.8% at 1 year to 33.9% at 3 years. At 1 year, less self‐perceived financial comfort, Black race, and stage III disease were significantly associated with weight gain; at 3 years, only less self‐perceived financial comfort remained significant. Baseline overweight or obesity was significantly associated with weight loss at both time points. Chemotherapy, endocrine therapy, and treatment‐related menopause were not associated with weight change.ConclusionsOne third of young breast cancer survivors experienced clinically significant weight gain 3 years after diagnosis; however, treatment‐related associations were not observed. Age‐appropriate lifestyle interventions, including the reduction of financial barriers, are needed to prevent weight gain in this high‐risk population.

AbstractBackgroundThere are many one‐child families in China due to the one‐child policy. Parents who have lost their only child and are unable to conceive another child or unwilling to adopt a child are called Shidu parents in China. The death of an only child puts Shidu parents at the risk of mental illness and even suicide. Few studies have explored the influence of cultural beliefs and prolonged grief disorder on suicide ideation.MethodsThis study involved rural Shidu parents from Sujiatun district of Shenyang, China. Questionnaires consisted of the Prolonged Grief questionnaire – 13 (PG‐13), the Culture‐related Grief Beliefs of Shidu Parents Questionnaire (CBSQ), one question from the baseline National Comorbidity Survey (NCS) to measure suicide ideation and demographic and bereavement‐related information. Bivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted to explore associated factors of suicide ideation.ResultsSixty‐nine (28.8%) of the 240 Shidu parents reported having suicide ideation. Having chronic disease (OR = 5.509, p < 0.01), having religious belief (OR = 3.923, p < 0.05) and having a grandchild (OR = 2.552, p < 0.05) were associated with an increased risk of suicide ideation. Destiny belief (a subscale of CBSQ) was negatively associated with suicide ideation (OR = 0.818, p < 0.05). Prolonged grief disorder (OR = 9.280, p < 0.01) and perceived stigma (a subscale of CBSQ) (OR = 1.200, p < 0.05) was positively associated with suicide ideation after adjusting for controlling variables.ConclusionsSuicide ideation is prevalent in rural Shidu parents. Reducing perceived stigma and alleviating prolonged grief disorder may decrease the risk of suicide among rural Shidu parents.

Published: July 2022

AbstractSociety requires companies to adopt ethical and responsible behavior with regard to environmental policies in order to achieve sustainable development. One of the most controversial sectors in terms of sustainable production is the fashion industry. This study analyzes the extent to which seven of the biggest fashion brands in Spain and around the world communicate their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) policies (specifically, those related to sustainability). To this end, we identify the social media platforms used the most by the target audiences for these brands, and apply an exploratory, descriptive methodology to a content analysis of communication about their CSR policies, both formal (corporate websites) and informal (social media). The objective is to identify whether these companies communicate their sustainable activities and practices in the context of their CSR. Our findings confirm that the brands analyzed have integrated sustainability and environmental protection initiatives into their CSR policies. However, although they do communicate this on their corporate websites, they rarely do so on social media. We thus conclude that the seven fashion brands analyzed could make better use of social media to raise awareness and educate customers about environmental sustainability.
Losing a parent in early‐life impairs flock size discrimination and lowers oxytocin receptor abundance in a medial amygdala homologue of adult zebra finches
Authors: Emmerson Michael G. 
Published: July 2022

AbstractExperiencing inadequate parental care during early‐life diminishes adult social competencies. For example, low parental care impairs adult socio‐cognitive abilities (e.g., recognizing familiar conspecifics) and affiliation (e.g., close social proximity); outcomes attributed to diminished medial amygdala nonapeptide functioning in rodents. Whether parental care has effects beyond familiarity, and if siblings have similar effects to parents, is unclear. Here, zebra finches were used to explore if parent and/or sibling number shape adult recognition and preference of small versus large flocks and nonapeptide (oxytocin, vasotocin) receptor expression in an avian homologue of the mammalian medial amygdala. Chicks were raised by single mothers or fathers in small broods or paired parents in small or large broods matched to single parents for chicks per nest or per parent, respectively. Pair‐raised birds had preferred flock sizes as adults, but birds raised by single parents had equal preference for either size. Oxytocin receptor expression was lower in birds raised by single parents versus paired parents, but vasotocin receptor levels were unaffected. Such results highlight parents as formative antecedents of their offspring's social competencies related to group size preference and their nonapeptide mechanisms, outcomes that influence an animal's ability to live in social groups.

AbstractKarst landscapes are characterized by intermittent and sinking streams. The most common method used to study underground hydrological connections in karst is tracing tests. However, a more biologically oriented approach has been suggested: analysis of the genetic structure of aquatic organisms. Biological tracers can be sought among trogloxenes, that is, surface species that occasionally enter caves and groundwater. One such example is the fish genusPhoxinus, which exhibits high genetic diversity and complex phylogeography in the Balkan Peninsula. In the north‐western Dinaric Karst, the complex hydrological network was digitalized in 2020. Contemporaneously,Phoxinus lumaireulpopulations in the Slovenian Dinaric Karst were intensively sampled and analysed for fragments of two mitochondrial genes and one nuclear gene. The derived phylogeographic structure and data on hydrological connections were compared to evaluate support for three alternative scenarios: The genetic structure (1) is a consequence of the ongoing geneflow through underground connections, (2) reflects a previous hydrological network or (3) is an outcome of anthropogenic translocations. The results suggest that the first two scenarios seem to have played a major role, while the third has not had profound effects on the genetic composition. Comparison between the genetic structure of Slovenian Dinaric Karst sampling sites and that of hydrologically isolated reference sampling sites indicated a greater genetic connectivity in the former. Moreover, the range of Adriatic (1a) and Black Sea (1c) haplotypes does not correspond to the Adriatic–Black Sea basin divide but is shifted northwards.

AbstractElectrochemical properties of quetiapine fumarate were examined on the anodic direction with multi‐walled carbon nanotube modified glassy carbon electrode using voltammetric methods. The ratio of multi‐walled carbon nanotube has been optimized using its various concentrations. The oxidation process was found to be irreversible, and adsorption controlled. The linear ranges were determined as 4×10−9–2×10−6 M for differential pulse stripping voltammetry and 2×10−9–2×10−6 M for square‐wave stripping voltammetry with detection limits of 8.07×10−10 and 2.71×10−10 M, respectively. The methods were validated and successfully applied for the analysis of quetiapine fumarate tablets. The groups responsible for the oxidation reaction of quetiapine fumarate were investigated with model substances.
Deformation and stress analysis of cup on pipeline inspection gauge based on reverse measurement

Published: July 2022

AbstractThe pipeline inspection gauge (PIG) is one of the most significant gauges in the field of oil–gas storage and transportation. It is essential to use PIG to clean and detect petroleum and natural gas pipelines. Predicting the deformation and stress distribution of the cup on the PIG is essential before pigging. To enhance these predictions, especially the deformation of the cup, a method for measuring the deformation of the cup based on reverse measurement was introduced and a novel finite element (FE) simulation model for investigation of the deformation of cups was proposed and verified in this paper. The point cloud data of the cup before and after entering the pipe can be obtained by the three‐dimensional (3D) laser scanner. Comparing the obtained point cloud data can measure the deformation of the cup. In addition, a 3D FE model was created to predict the deformation of the cup and the effective stress on the contact area. The result shows that there is a linear relationship between circumferential deformation and interference, while there is a nonlinear relationship between axial deformation, effective stress, and interference. These results provide a better understanding of the complex behavior of PIG during pigging.
Defoliation affects the root competitive balance for N between Poa annua plants grown in a split‐root box
Authors: Mori Sayuki , Irving Louis John 
Published: July 2022

AbstractBackgroundPlants compete aboveground for light and belowground for patchily distributed nutrients. Defoliation causes an immediate loss of leaf area and photosynthetic capacity, leading to reduced root growth, with hypothesised implications for nutrient uptake and nitrogen use efficiency.MethodsIn Experiment 1, we grew single plants in split root boxes with N supplied equally or unequally, with half the plants subject to repeated defoliation to quantify the impact of each treatment. In Experiment 2, we grew pairs of Poa annua plants in three‐chamber split root boxes, with N supplied either to the outer chambers (no competition) or to a shared centre chamber (competition), to quantify the influence of defoliation on root competition.ResultsIn Experiment 1, defoliation caused a significant decrease in root mass but did not affect root distribution between chambers, while differential N supply led to an 11% increase in shoot mass. In Experiment 2, strong root competition was seen in undefoliated plants under competitive conditions. Where one plant was defoliated, the other exhibited increased shoot mass and N content in competitive, but not noncompetitive conditions.ConclusionsOur data suggest that plant belowground competitive success following defoliation may be strongly influenced by the spatial distribution of soil resources.
The complexity of post‐mergers and acquisitions reorganization: Integration and differentiation

Published: July 2022

AbstractResearch SummaryThis article applies a mixed‐method approach to explore the complexities of post‐mergers and acquisitions (M&A) integration processes. Extant literature provides significant insights regarding the impact of task and human integration and their influence on post‐integration processes. However, the literature often fails to differentiate between subelements of these two dimensions. This article investigates task and human integration in a cross‐border M&A aimed at efficiency and innovativeness. We highlight the importance of a clear distinction between two subelements of task integration (product harmonization and structural integration) and show that different interorganizational contexts matter. Consequently, we propose a conceptual framework based on two contextual characteristics—source of synergy and choice of location—suggesting that different integration approaches should be applied simultaneously in different contexts of the same post‐M&A organization.Managerial SummaryDue to the complexity of the post‐M&A integration process, organizing and managing such a process is a challenge to most practitioners. Understanding how to manage different integration dimensions increases the need for prioritization in order to bypass a one‐size‐fits‐all initiative. We suggest that managers should apply a differentiated postintegration approach, depending on specific organizational contexts. A product‐focused approach seems to fit best in a context where target and acquirer remain working in separate locations, but on similar products. A structure‐focused approach is recommended when target and acquirer remain separated, but work on complementary products. Finally, a people‐focused approach is proposed when target and acquirer are colocated.

Published: July 2022

Background and Aims:
In hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), severe liver vascular malformations are associated with mutations in the Activin A Receptor‐Like Type 1 (ACVRL1) gene encoding ALK1, the receptor for bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) 9/BMP10, which regulates blood vessel development. Here, we established an HHT mouse model with exclusive liver involvement and adequate life expectancy to investigate ALK1 signaling in liver vessel formation and metabolic function.

Approach and Results:
Liver sinusoidal endothelial cell (LSEC)‐selective Cre deleter line, Stab2‐iCreF3, was crossed with Acvrl1‐floxed mice to generate LSEC‐specific Acvrl1‐deficient mice (Alk1
HEC‐KO). Alk1
HEC‐KO mice revealed hepatic vascular malformations and increased posthepatic flow, causing right ventricular volume overload. Transcriptomic analyses demonstrated induction of proangiogenic/tip cell gene sets and arterialization of hepatic vessels at the expense of LSEC and central venous identities. Loss of LSEC angiokines Wnt2, Wnt9b, and R‐spondin‐3 (Rspo3) led to disruption of metabolic liver zonation in Alk1
HEC‐KO mice and in liver specimens of patients with HHT. Furthermore, prion‐like protein doppel (Prnd) and placental growth factor (Pgf) were upregulated in Alk1
HEC‐KO hepatic endothelial cells, representing candidates driving the organ‐specific pathogenesis of HHT. In LSEC in vitro, stimulation or inhibition of ALK1 signaling counter‐regulated Inhibitors of DNA binding (ID)1–3, known Alk1 transcriptional targets. Stimulation of ALK1 signaling and inhibition of ID1–3 function confirmed regulation of Wnt2 and Rspo3 by the BMP9/ALK1/ID axis.

Conclusions:
Hepatic endothelial ALK1 signaling protects from development of vascular malformations preserving organ‐specific endothelial differentiation and angiocrine signaling. The long‐term surviving Alk1
HEC‐KO HHT model offers opportunities to develop targeted therapies for this severe disease.
Nucleofugality of diphenylphosphinate and kinetic stabilities of secondary and tertiary benzylic diphenylphosphinates in aqueous solvents

Published: July 2022

AbstractFirst‐order rate constants for solvolyses of variously substituted benzhydryl diphenylphosphinates in four aqueous solvents have been measured conductometrically in order to investigate leaving group ability of diphenylphosphinate (DPP), that is, to determine corresponding nucleofuge‐specific parameters (Nf and sf) according to the correlation equation log k (25°C) = sf(Ef + Nf). DPP is the first of phosphorus leaving groups included on the Nf nucleofugality scale which presently covers a reactivity range of 15 orders of magnitude. Application of log k (25°C) versus Ef plots has unequivocally shown that benzhydryl diphenylphosphinates solvolyze in hydroxylic solvents by the SN1 mechanism. As the abovementioned equation and corresponding reactivity parameters can also be employed for predicting heterolytic reactivity of substrates in various solvents, the range of kinetic stability of secondary and tertiary benzylic diphenylphosphinates toward heterolysis has been examined in terms of reaction half‐lives. Further, in order to investigate the origin of stability of the DPP anion and, consequently, the ability of the DPP leaving group, quantum mechanical calculations and the Natural Bond Orbital (NBO) analysis were performed at the M06‐2X/6‐311+G(3df,3pd) level of theory using the SMD solvation model. The NBO analysis has revealed that negative hyperconjugation plays a dominant role in delocalizing the anionic charge in disubstituted phosphinate leaving groups.

Published: July 2022

AbstractThough widely applied in light‐emitting diode (LED) lighting and X‐ray detection, respectively, rare‐earth ions doped phosphor and scintillating single crystals still face many challenges in practicalities, like aging of package material and difficulty to construct tiny array structure. Using phosphate glass as the host is quite beneficial for solving these problems while enabling distinguished luminescence. Therefore, Eu3+ and Tb3+ doped phosphate glasses which, respectively, show strong red/green emissions are researched. Superior thermal stabilities (78.69% and 89.35% emission intensities remain at 150 °C) and high internal quantum efficiencies (87.3% and 68.6%) are found to guarantee the excellent photoluminescence performances. The brilliant X‐ray excited luminescence properties are demonstrated by general 19.49% and 34.74% integrated emission intensities of that of commercial Bi4Ge3O12 single crystal scintillator with the change of X‐ray power. Meanwhile, Tb3+ doped scintillating fiber is drawn. Finally, excited by 380 nm LED, color manipulation and white light generation are achieved in LEDs with a structure of stacked emitting layers (mainly Eu3+ and Tb3+ doped phosphate glasses). Many of the as‐constructed white LED's performance parameters are much better than the commercial white LED. These results show that Eu3+ and Tb3+ doped phosphate glasses possess promising potential in LED lighting and X‐ray detections.
