Gravitational instability with a dark matter background: exploring the different scenarios
Authors: Ourabah Kamel 
Published: June 2022

AbstractWe study the Jeans-type gravitational instability for a self-gravitating medium composed of two species, baryonic (bright) and dark matter particles, using a hybrid quantum-classical fluid approach. Baryonic matter is treated classically, which is appropriate for most astrophysical environments, e.g., Bok globules, while dark matter is treated through a quantum hydrodynamic approach allowing for possible nonlinearities. These nonlinearities may arise in bosonic dark matter due to attractive or repulsive short-range self-interaction (attractive interaction being more relevant for axions) or from the Pauli exclusion principle for fermionic dark matter, e.g., massive neutrinos. This allows us to explore, in a very broad context, the impact of a dark matter background on the Jeans process for different scenarios discussed in the literature. We confront the established stability criterion with Bok globule stability observations and show that the model adequately accounts for the data with dark matter parameters close to those predicted independently from numerical simulations.
Probabilistic Bigraphs
Authors: Archibald Blair , Calder Muffy , Sevegnani Michele 
Published: June 2022

Bigraphs are a universal computational modelling formalism for the spatial and temporal evolution of a system in which entities can be added and removed. We extend bigraphs to probabilistic bigraphs, and then again to action bigraphs, which include non-determinism and rewards. The extensions are implemented in the BigraphER toolkit and illustrated through examples of virus spread in computer networks and data harvesting in wireless sensor systems. BigraphER also supports the existing
stochastic bigraphs
extension of Krivine et al. and using BigraphER we give, for the first time, a direct implementation of the membrane budding model used to motivate stochastic bigraphs.
Four Element MIMO Antenna Systems with Decoupling Lines for High-Speed 5G Wireless Data Communication
Authors: Rosaline Imaculate , Kumar Arvind , Upadhyay Prashant , Murshed Abu Hena 
Published: June 2022

A low-profile planar multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna consisting of four elements with isolation improvement is proposed for 5G mm Wave (24–40) GHz applications. Each radiating element of the MIMO antenna comprises of a microstrip-fed tilted spade-shaped radiator with four asymmetrical slots and a partial ground plane. The antenna is optimized to resonate at 35 GHz covering a wide impedance bandwidth from 23.9 to 40.1 GHz. Two cross lines are then loaded between the antenna elements to improve the isolation

. The MIMO structure with the decoupling lines is fabricated and tested. The measured results are in good correlation with the simulated results. Other MIMO performance metrics such as the envelope correlation coeﬃcient (ECC), channel capacity loss (CCL), diversity gain (DG), and total active reflection coefficient (TARC) are examined, and the results are found to be satisfactory for the device to be used for mm-wave 5G MIMO applications. Also, the antenna’s performance metrics such as radiation efficiency, gain, and radiation patterns over the operating band are presented.
Samuel Beckett and the Impasses of Sexuation in How It Is
Authors: Brown Llewellyn 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
The confusion of sexual identities in How It Is testifies to the collapsing of the imaginary register that situates male and female as distinct and complementary in society. The body as a specular whole thus gives way to a relationship to language, where the universal ‘phallic’ register inscribes irreducible feminine alterity. The tormentor/tormented couplings, as well as the serial expansion of crawlers compose fictional attempts revealing a fundamental failure to institute sexual complementarity. The sexual is thus shown to reside within speech itself, pointing to the text’s very engendering. The impossible “sexual rapport” is thus the source of creation.
Samuel Beckett, les calmes déserts du sexe
Authors: Geneste Bruno 
Published: June 2022

Résumé
Le Dépeupleur est un texte central sur la question du sexe. Son acmé poétique se situe dans les calmes déserts de la vaincue. L’ objet de ce travail est la mise en perspective de la qualité que revêt le Nord du sexe pour Beckett, le ferment qu’ il constitue pour sa poétique. L’ accent est mis sur l’ objet vide et sur “La femme qui n’ existe pas”, et ce pire donne le cap du dire poétique. Nous y étudierons le voisinage avec ce que Lacan nomme “non-rapport sexuel”.
Speed and Consolidation: Warren Meck’s Early Ideas about Temporal Reference Memory and some Later Developments
Authors: Wearden John H. , Jones Luke A. 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
This article is initially focussed on Warren Meck’s early work on temporal reference memory, in particular the idea that some drug manipulations affect ‘memory storage speed’. Meck’s original notion had links to an earlier literature, not usually related to timing, the study of memory consolidation. We present some examples of the use of the idea of memory storage speed from Meck’s early work, and show how it was abandoned in favour of a ‘memory constant’, K*, not related to storage speed per se. Some arguments against the idea of memory storage speed are presented, as well as discussion of a small amount of research on consolidation of memories for time. Later work on temporal reference memory, including rapid acquisition and interference effects, is also discussed.
Agustín Cueva and the Construction of Democracy in Latin America
Authors: Burgueño Angulo Nayeli , Ramírez Díaz Carlos Alberto 
Published: June 2022

The contributions of Agustín Cueva to the understanding of political processes in Latin America—his interpretation of Latin American reality, characterized by social movements, dictatorships, and transitions to democracy, from a historical perspective—highlight the fragility of the region’s democracies and the need for democracies that lead to real structural transformation in Latin American societies. A review of these contributions allows us to approach contemporary political processes in the region in the context of neoliberalism, the main challenge in the construction of societies that are democratic, fair, and equitable. Las contribuciones de Agustín Cueva a la comprensión de los procesos políticos en América Latina (su interpretación de la realidad latinoamericana, caracterizada por movimientos sociales, dictaduras y transiciones a la democracia, desde una perspectiva histórica) ponen de relieve la fragilidad de las democracias de la región y la necesidad de democracias que conduzcan a una transformación estructural real en las sociedades latinoamericanas. Una revisión de sus aportes nos permite acercarnos a los procesos políticos contemporáneos en la región dentro del contexto del neoliberalismo, el principal desafío a la construcción de sociedades democráticas, justas y equitativas.
Cross-Border Social Practices of Mexican Merchant Women
Authors: Solís Pérez Marlene Celia , García Ortega Martha , Acosta Díaz Félix , Ordóñez Barba Gerardo 
Published: June 2022

The results of a qualitative study of cross-border social practices of Mexican women engaged in small-scale trade on Mexico’s northern and southern borders reveal that, although their social practices are a response to an instrumental rationality and imply a certain economic autonomy, they develop on the basis of agency and social networks that enable reproduction of reciprocal relations and family livelihood strategies as types of informal labor, giving rise to a form of globalization from below. Los resultados de un estudio cualitativo de las prácticas sociales transfronterizas de las mujeres mexicanas dedicadas al comercio a pequeña escala en las fronteras norte y sur de México revelan que, si bien sus prácticas sociales son en respuesta a una racionalidad instrumental e implican una cierta autonomía económica, dichas prácticas se desarrollan sobre la base de la agencia, así como redes sociales que permiten la reproducción de las relaciones recíprocas y estrategias de subsistencia familiar como tipos de trabajo informal. Todo ello da lugar a una forma de globalización desde abajo.
The Central American Exodus and the Labor Border: U.S. Border Control Outsourcing in Southern Mexico
Authors: Garrapa Anna Mary 
Published: June 2022

The “labor border” is an analytical tool, a legal device for controlling incoming migration flows through government initiatives related to the employment system. Two programs for temporary legalization of migrants implemented by the Mexican government in the context of the so-called Central American exodus—the Estas en Tu Casa (You Are at Home) plan and the Emisión de Tarjetas de Visitante por Razones Humanitarias (Issuance of Visitor Cards for Humanitarian Reasons) program—are examples of such devices. A review based on recent research on their impacts on the mobility of migrants as they cross the southern Mexican border on their way to the United States contributes to the debate over the outsourcing of border controls in the framework of the dependent relationship between Mexican migration policy and U.S. security strategy. La “frontera laboral” es una herramienta analítica, un dispositivo legal para controlar los flujos migratorios entrantes a través de iniciativas gubernamentales relacionadas con el sistema de empleo. Dos programas de legalización temporal de migrantes implementados por el gobierno mexicano en el contexto del llamado éxodo centroamericano—el plan Estas en Tu Casa y el programa Emisión de Tarjetas de Visitante por Razones Humanitarias—son un ejemplo de dichos dispositivos. Una revisión basada en investigaciones recientes sobre sus impactos en la movilidad de los migrantes al cruzar la frontera sur de México en su camino hacia los Estados Unidos contribuye al debate sobre la externalización de los controles fronterizos en el marco de la relación de dependencia entre la política migratoria mexicana y la estrategia de seguridad de los Estados Unidos.

Published: June 2022

Experienced senior living leaders (SLLs) report the impact of spirituality and religious practice on SLL role adaptation and continuation. The sample included 18 SLLs in 18 skilled care settings representing public, non-profit, and for-profit types of incorporation, with oversampling of for-profit facilities. The average years of SLL experience was 24 years. In-depth interviews were examined through a thematic analysis approach using Excel software. Seventy-eight percent described how a higher power, religious beliefs, and faith practices were associated with their role. Their narratives revealed three major themes: Frame (calling and pre-dispositional spiritual beliefs and religious practices), Role Performance (how spirituality informed SLL administrative practice), and Benefits (perceived rewards of adherence to spiritual beliefs and practices). Further analysis of the three themes produced codes that added greater specification for each theme. Implications provided for normalizing the spirituality and work-life intersect and infusing ethical integration of spirituality and work-life in SLL educational programs.
A systematic review of the experiences of autistic young people enrolled in mainstream second-level (post-primary) schools
Authors: Horgan Finbar , Kenny Neil , Flynn Paula 
Published: June 2022

Internationally, there is a growing trend towards the inclusion of autistic pupils within mainstream schools. However, concerns have been expressed regarding this policy roll-out preceding empirical evidence demonstrating effective outcomes for autistic students. Concerns have also been expressed regarding the absence of the voices of autistic pupils themselves within research and policy literature. This review seeks to synthesise evidence from qualitative studies relating to the experiences and perspectives of autistic young people enrolled in mainstream second-level or post-primary education. Searches were carried out on three bibliographic databases: Education Research Complete, Education Resources Information Centre and PsychInfo. One thousand sixty-three studies were identified through a combination of database and hand searches of which 33 met the inclusion criteria for the review. Data were synthesised using ‘thematic synthesis’ and the validity of included studies was assessed using the ‘Critical Appraisal Skills Programme’ (CASP) checklist. Thematic synthesis resulted in the development of three analytical themes: ‘Demands of mainstream placements’, ‘Social participation’ and ‘Impacts on the student’. Our analysis revealed that for many autistic young people, mainstream school is a complex and demanding social environment. Further research conducted in partnership with this cohort is essential as inclusive policy and practice continues to develop. Lay abstract Internationally, more autistic pupils are being educated in mainstream schools. Some people have voiced concerns that this policy roll-out is happening before examining the effective outcomes for autistic students. Concerns have also been expressed regarding a lack of the voices of autistic pupils themselves within research and policy. This study was undertaken in order to gather literature that explores the views and experiences of autistic young people in relation to their mainstream school placement at the secondary level. This study aims to summarise the existing literature and provide a new, more complete account of the school experiences of this cohort. After an extensive search, 33 studies were identified by the authors as meeting a set of inclusion criteria. All of the studies included in this review elicited the views and perspectives of at least one autistic young person regarding their mainstream secondary school placement. Upon carefully analysing these studies, the authors developed three key themes as follows: ‘Demands of mainstream placements’, ‘Social participation’ and ‘Impacts on the student’. Our analysis revealed that for many autistic young people, mainstream school is a complex and demanding social environment. Further research that prioritises the voices and perspectives of this cohort is essential as inclusive policy and practice continues to develop.
Accounting for concurrent antihyperglycemic medication changes in dietary and physical activity interventions: A focused literature review
Authors: Campbell Dennis B , Lee Olstad Dana , Donald Teagan , Campbell David JT 
Published: June 2022

Aims To summarize methods used to account for antihyperglycemic medication changes in randomized controlled trials evaluating the effect of dietary and physical activity interventions on glycemia among adults with diabetes. Methods Using studies included in two recently published systematic reviews of randomized controlled trials examining the glycemic effects of dietary and physical activity interventions, we evaluated how each study accounted for antihyperglycemic medication changes. Data were analyzed using summary statistics, stratified by the type of intervention studied, and each was assigned a score from 0 to 6 reflecting the strength of medication controls employed. Results We evaluated 22 physical activity focused and 27 dietary focused articles. Our scoring system yielded a mean concurrent medication adjustment score of 3.9/6 for the physical activity studies and a score of 1.7/6 ( p < 0.001) for the dietary studies. Conclusions We found that randomized controlled trials included in recent systematic reviews of physical activity and dietary interventions did not robustly account or control for changes in antihyperglycemic medications, with physical activity interventions doing so more robustly than dietary interventions. This is a threat to the validity of study findings, as observed glycemic changes may in fact be attributable to imbalances in concurrent medication adjustments between groups.
Evaluation of the putative lymphoma-associated point mutation D427H in the STAT3 transcription factor
Authors: Behrendsen Lena Sophie , Menon Priyanka Rajeev , Khan Muhammad Jawad , Gregus Anke , Wirths Oliver , Meyer Thomas , Staab Julia 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
Background
Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) is an oncogenic transcription factor that promotes cell proliferation and immunomodulation in untransformed cells and maintains stemness of transformed cells, facilitating invasion and metastasis. Numerous point mutations in the STAT3 protein have been identified that drive malignancy in various tumor entities. The missense mutation D427H localized in the STAT3 DNA-binding domain has been previously reported in patients with NK/T cell lymphomas. To assess the biological activity of this missense mutation, we compared the STAT3-D427H mutant to wild-type (WT) protein as well as the known hyper-active mutant F174A.

Results
Although previously reported as an activating mutation, the STAT3-D427H mutant neither showed elevated cytokine-induced tyrosine phosphorylation nor altered nuclear accumulation, as compared to the WT protein. However, the D427H mutant displayed enhanced binding to STAT-specific DNA-binding sites but a reduced sequence specificity and dissociation rate from DNA, which was demonstrated by electrophoretic mobility shift assays. This observation is consistent with the phenotype of the homologous E421K mutation in the STAT1 protein, which also displayed enhanced binding to DNA but lacked a corresponding increase in transcriptional activity.

Conclusions
Based on our data, it is unlikely that the D427H missense mutation in the STAT3 protein possesses an oncogenic potential beyond the WT molecule.
The evolution of vitamin C biosynthesis and transport in animals
Authors: Duque Pedro , Vieira Cristina P. , Bastos Bárbara , Vieira Jorge 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
Background
Vitamin C (VC) is an indispensable antioxidant and co-factor for optimal function and development of eukaryotic cells. In animals, VC can be synthesized by the organism, acquired through the diet, or both. In the single VC synthesis pathway described in animals, the penultimate step is catalysed by Regucalcin, and the last step by l-gulonolactone oxidase (GULO). The GULO gene has been implicated in VC synthesis only, while Regucalcin has been shown to have multiple functions in mammals.

Results
Both GULO and Regucalcin can be found in non-bilaterian, protostome and deuterostome species. Regucalcin, as here shown, is involved in multiple functions such as VC synthesis, calcium homeostasis, and the oxidative stress response in both Deuterostomes and Protostomes, and in insects in receptor-mediated uptake of hexamerin storage proteins from haemolymph. In Insecta and Nematoda, however, there is no GULO gene, and in the latter no Regucalcin gene, but species from these lineages are still able to synthesize VC, implying at least one novel synthesis pathway. In vertebrates, SVCT1, a gene that belongs to a family with up to five members, as here shown, is the only gene involved in the uptake of VC in the gut. This specificity is likely the result of a subfunctionalization event that happened at the base of the Craniata subphylum. SVCT-like genes present in non-Vertebrate animals are likely involved in both VC and nucleobase transport. It is also shown that in lineages where GULO has been lost, SVCT1 is now an essential gene, while in lineages where SVCT1 gene has been lost, GULO is now an essential gene.

Conclusions
The simultaneous study, for the first time, of GULO, Regucalcin and SVCTs evolution provides a clear picture of VC synthesis/acquisition and reveals very different selective pressures in different animal taxonomic groups.
Cultivar-specific markers, mutations, and chimerisim of Cavendish banana somaclonal variants resistant to Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense tropical race 4

Published: June 2022

Abstract
Background
The selection of tissue culture–derived somaclonal variants of Giant Cavendish banana (Musa spp., Cavendish sub-group AAA) by the Taiwan Banana Research Institute (TBRI) has resulted in several cultivars resistant to Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense tropical race 4 (Foc TR4), a destructive fungus threatening global banana production. However, the mutations in these somaclonal variants have not yet been determined. We performed an RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis of three TBRI Foc TR4–resistant cultivars: ‘Tai-Chiao No. 5’ (TC5), ‘Tai-Chiao No. 7’ (TC7), and ‘Formosana’ (FM), as well as their susceptible progenitor ‘Pei-Chiao’ (PC), to investigate the sequence variations among them and develop cultivar-specific markers.

Results
A group of single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) specific to one cultivar were identified from the analysis of RNA-seq data and validated using Sanger sequencing from genomic DNA. Several SNVs were further converted into cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence (CAPS) markers or derived CAPS markers that could identify the three Foc TR4–resistant cultivars among 6 local and 5 international Cavendish cultivars. Compared with PC, the three resistant cultivars showed a loss or alteration of heterozygosity in some chromosomal regions, which appears to be a consequence of single-copy chromosomal deletions. Notably, TC7 and FM shared a common deletion region on chromosome 5; however, different TC7 tissues displayed varying degrees of allele ratios in this region, suggesting the presence of chimerism in TC7.

Conclusions
This work demonstrates that reliable SNV markers of tissue culture–derived and propagated banana cultivars with a triploid genome can be developed through RNA-seq data analysis. Moreover, the analysis of sequence heterozygosity can uncover chromosomal deletions and chimerism in banana somaclonal variants. The markers obtained from this study will assist with the identification of TBRI Cavendish somaclonal variants for the quality control of tissue culture propagation, and the protection of breeders’ rights.
