Calcium chloride and chitosan coatings combined with modified atmosphere packaging extend the shelf life and maintain the quality of frozen mango slices
Authors: Saikaew Kawinchaya , Siripornadulsil Wilailak , Siripornadulsil Surasak 
Published: December 2022

SummaryThe combination of modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) and coating effectively improved the gas environment in packaging trays with low O2 concentrations (1.46–4.24%). This led to a significantly higher quality in terms of delaying the colour change, preserving phytochemical and antioxidant concentrations when mangoes were coated with 0.5% CaCl2 (CA) or CA followed by 0.5% combined solution of CA plus chitosan (CA + Mix) and reducing weight loss with the CA + Mix coating. There were no significant differences in the sensory scores between fresh and frozen–thawed ripe mango regarding overall acceptability, appearance, colour, flavour and texture. These findings suggested that the shelf life of frozen mango could be extended by 6 months with high quality with the combination of MAP and coating with CA + Mix or CA. This approach has the potential to increase the value chain of ripe mango through commercial cost savings.

Authors: Kolac Nurcan , Yıldız Ayşe 
Published: December 2022

AbstractAimThis study was conducted to investigate the effect of health belief model‐based short interviews on preventive behaviours for osteoporosis in postmenopausal women.Design and methodsA randomized pretest, posttest and follow‐up design was used. The study was conducted between June 2016 and June 2017 with an intervention (n = 41) and a control group (n = 41). The intervention group applied the Short Interviews Model for 12 weeks as a short interview programme that was created based on the health belief model. The study data were collected by the researcher using a descriptive information form, the Osteoporosis Health Belief Scale, the Osteoporosis Self‐efficacy Scale and the Osteoporosis Knowledge Test.ResultsIn the posttest and follow‐up measurements, the mean scores of the intervention group on the total Osteoporosis Health Belief Scale and its self‐efficacy and exercise sub‐dimensions and the total Osteoporosis Knowledge Test and its sub‐dimensions were significantly higher than those of the control group.ConclusionThe short interviews held in this study provided evidence to guide women and nurses in the prevention of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. It is recommended that the prevention of osteoporosis should be integrated into women's health programmes at the primary health‐care level.

SummaryObjectiveTo explore associations of maternal insulin resistance and β‐cell dysfunction with offspring overweight before 24 months of age among children of Chinese women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).MethodsOffspring of women with GDM (n = 901) who were enrolled in a lifestyle trial during pregnancy were followed up to 24 months of age in Tianjin, China. Restricted cubic spline analysis was performed to examine full‐range associations of maternal homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA‐IR) and β‐cell function (HOMA‐%β) with childhood overweight. Logistic regression was performed to obtain the odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence interval (CI) of maternal high HOMA‐IR and low HOMA‐%β at diagnosis of GDM for offspring overweight within 12 months of age and at 13–24 months of age.ResultsMaternal high HOMA‐IR was associated with an increased risk of offspring being overweight within 12 months of age and at 13–24 months of age (OR: 1.71, 95%CI: 1.12–2.62 & 1.89, 1.13–3.17, respectively). Maternal low HOMA‐%β was associated with an increased risk of offspring being overweight at 13–24 months of age (1.64, 1.05–2.55).ConclusionsBoth maternal increased insulin resistance and decreased β‐cell function at diagnosis of GDM were associated with elevated risk of offspring overweight in early childhood among Chinese women with GDM.

Drug Courts and the ‘Responsibility without Blame’ Approach
Authors: Nayfeld Nicolas 
Published: December 2022

ABSTRACTThis article starts from a paradox and aims to solve it. On the one hand, although Drug Courts (DCs) are one of the most interesting penal innovations in recent years, running counter to the dominant retributive approach and the rival approach based on deterrence, they have surprisingly not attracted the attention of philosophers and therefore lack a solid philosophical foundation. On the other hand, although Pickard's ‘responsibility without blame’ approach looks very convincing on paper, its practical applications remain unclear outside the clinical context. I argue that Pickard's approach is the theoretical framework that DCs need and that they are a compelling application of it: DCs do ascribe to participants various forms of responsibility (criminal ‘liability‐responsibility’, responsibility of choice, responsibility for progress or failure, responsibility as answerability, tort liability) while striving to keep ‘affective blame’ at bay in order to help them regain their autonomy. However, I argue that some of the limitations of both this approach and DCs become apparent once we consider the ‘outer limits’ of DCs, in other words those who are terminated from DCs and those who refuse to enter DCs in the first place.

AbstractOlder adults are characterized by profound clinical heterogeneity. When designing and delivering interventions, there exist multiple approaches to account for heterogeneity. We present the results of a systematic review of data‐driven, personalized interventions in older adults, which serves as a use case to distinguish the conceptual and methodologic differences between individualized intervention delivery and precision health‐derived interventions. We define individualized interventions as those where all participants received the same parent intervention, modified on a case‐by‐case basis and using an evidence‐based protocol, supplemented by clinical judgment as appropriate, while precision health‐derived interventions are those that tailor care to individuals whereby the strategy for how to tailor care was determined through data‐driven, precision health analytics. We discuss how their integration may offer new opportunities for analytics‐based geriatric medicine that accommodates individual heterogeneity but allows for more flexible and resource‐efficient population‐level scaling.

AbstractBackgroundLife‐space mobility represents the distance, frequency, and independence of mobility, ranging from one's bedroom to beyond their town. Older men with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) may limit their life‐space to stay close to a bathroom. However, it's unknown whether LUTS severity or urinary bother are associated with risk of life‐space mobility restriction.MethodsWe analyzed data from 3025 community‐dwelling men age ≥71 years without life‐space mobility restriction at analytic baseline (Year 7) of the Osteoporotic Fractures in Men (MrOS) study. The American Urologic Association Symptom Index (AUASI) was assessed at baseline and includes one question assessing urinary bother (“If you were to spend the rest of your life with your urinary condition just the way it is now, how would you feel about that?”; score 0–1,2,3,4–6) and seven items to classify LUTS severity as none/mild (score 0–7), moderate (8–19), or severe (20–35). The University of Alabama Life‐space Assessment was used to define life‐space mobility restriction (≤60) at baseline and follow‐up (Year 9). We used log‐binomial regression with robust variance estimators to model adjusted risk ratios (ARR) for LUTS severity and urinary bother with incident life‐space mobility restriction, controlling for age, site, health‐related factors, and comorbidities. We then mutually adjusted for urinary bother and LUTS severity.ResultsOverall, the 2‐year risk of life‐space mobility restrictions was 9.9%. Compared to men without urinary bother (scores 0–1), the risk of life‐space mobility restriction was significantly higher among men with bother scores of 4–6 (ARR = 2.20, 95% CI: 1.52, 3.19), independent of LUTS severity and confounders. Conversely, LUTS severity was not independently associated with the risk of life‐space mobility restriction.ConclusionsUrinary bother, but not LUTS severity, is independently associated with incident life‐space mobility restriction among older men. To maintain life‐space mobility in older men with LUTS, future studies should identify shared mechanisms and interventions that minimize urinary bother.

Authors: Leth‐Nissen Astrid B. , Fentz Hanne N. , Trillingsgaard Tea L. , Stadler Gertraud 
Published: December 2022

AbstractSeveral couple interventions targeting relationship distress also show beneficial effects on individual mental health. Yet, strikingly few studies report effects on perceived stress. This study examined the effects of a brief couple intervention, the Marriage Checkup (MC), on perceived stress. We randomly assigned 231 couples to receive two MCs (Weeks 7 and 51) or to a waitlist control. Survey data were collected at seven time points over 2 years and analyzed using multilevel models. We found no significant between‐group treatment effects on average stress at any time point. However, women, but not men, in the intervention group experienced decreased stress after the second MC (d = −0.23) and more women in the intervention group (26.5%) compared with the control group (14.9%) experienced reliable improvements in stress after the second MC. Overall, the MC did not result in main effects on stress but caused temporary reliable change in terms of stress relief for women.
Foot adaptation to climbing in ovenbirds and woodcreepers (Furnariida)

Published: December 2022

AbstractFurnariida (i.e. ovenbirds, woodcreepers and antbirds) cover diverse ecologies and locomotor habits, ranging from strictly terrestrial to climbing birds, with different degrees of acrobatic performances. We know that this variety of locomotor modes is linked to different limb morpho‐functional adaptations in other climbing clades of birds, such as woodpeckers and nuthatches. Here, we link the morphological variations to ecological categories, such as different locomotor habits and a gradient of acrobatic performances, in a phylogenetically informed analysis. We used a high‐density three‐dimensional (3D) geometric morphometric approach on foot bones (tarsometatarsus and all toes) of 55 specimens from 39 species of Furnariida. We found a significant correlation between acrobatic performances and foot bone shapes, partly explained by the phylogenetic relationship between species. Dendrocolaptidae show specific anatomical features, linked to their acrobatic locomotor habits. More specifically, we found that: (1) foot bones are more robust amongst climbing Furnariida, (2) the spread between toes is wider amongst highly acrobatic Furnariida, (3) dermal syndactyly between digits II and III is linked to special osteological features interpreted as functional osteological syndactyly in woodcreepers (tail‐assisted climbers) and (4) the hallux claw is straighter than other claws in climbing Furnariida. Our study demonstrates that climbing Furnariida evolved common foot adaptations with subtle phenotypic variations depending on their climbing performances, refining our understanding of how evolution shapes interactions amongst structure, function and ecological traits.
Moral Agency in the Reproductive Marketplace: Social Egg Freezing in the United States
Authors: McDonald Emma 
Published: December 2022

ABSTRACTMore and more women are turning to egg freezing as a strategy for managing conflicting timelines related to professional goals and family formation aspirations. Drawing on critical realism, this article argues that vicious aspects of the reproductive marketplace and the workplace along with cultural ideals of motherhood and the nuclear family incentivize agents to freeze their eggs. While individual egg freezers help contribute to the maintenance of structures and cultures that perpetuate inequalities related to class, race, and gender and hinder the flourishing of all women, ethical analysis should critique the structural and cultural forces that make egg freezing an attractive option for women balancing procreation and professional pursuits.
Understanding the effects of cheating configurations on team creative performance: A social impact theory perspective
Authors: Spoelma Trevor M. , Mai Ke Michael , Wei Wu 
Published: December 2022

AbstractUnethical behavior is a persistent problem in teams that can stimulate harmful relationship conflict and undermine collective performance. Yet, when considering its impact, scholars tend to focus on the overall amount of unethical behavior and neglect how it is distributed within the team. We propose that considering the way unethical behavior is patterned within teams provides a new lens by which to uncover when unethical behavior has less of a harmful impact. Integrating typologies of team configurations with social impact theory, we theorize that the impact of cheating on relationship conflict and creative performance depends on the interaction between how it is configured (i.e., the amount and pattern of individual member cheating behavior) and levels of peer‐based rational control. In a diverse sample of almost one hundred teams, we find that relative to teams with a fragmented cheating configuration, teams with a bad apple cheating configuration experience less relationship conflict in contexts with high peer‐based rational control; an effect that subsequently impacts team creative performance. Our research demonstrates the value added by considering how cheating emerges as different team configurations and offers implications for interventions intended to suppress its harmful effects.
Neuroanatomical predictors of real‐time fMRI‐based anterior insula regulation. A supervised machine learning study
Authors: Caria Andrea , Grecucci Alessandro 
Published: December 2022

AbstractIncreasing evidence showed that learned control of metabolic activity in selected brain regions can support emotion regulation. Notably, a number of studies demonstrated that neurofeedback‐based regulation of fMRI activity in several emotion‐related areas leads to modifications of emotional behavior along with changes of neural activity in local and distributed networks, in both healthy individuals and individuals with emotional disorders. However, the current understanding of the neural mechanisms underlying self‐regulation of the emotional brain, as well as their relationship with other emotion regulation strategies, is still limited. In this study, we attempted to delineate neuroanatomical regions mediating real‐time fMRI‐based emotion regulation by exploring whole brain GM and WM features predictive of self‐regulation of anterior insula (AI) activity, a neuromodulation procedure that can successfully support emotional brain regulation in healthy individuals and patients. To this aim, we employed a multivariate kernel ridge regression model to assess brain volumetric features, at regional and network level, predictive of real‐time fMRI‐based AI regulation. Our results showed that several GM regions including fronto‐occipital and medial temporal areas and the basal ganglia as well as WM regions including the fronto‐occipital fasciculus, tapetum and fornix significantly predicted learned AI regulation. Remarkably, we observed a substantial contribution of the cerebellum in relation to both the most effective regulation run and average neurofeedback performance. Overall, our findings highlighted specific neurostructural features contributing to individual differences of AI‐guided emotion regulation. Notably, such neuroanatomical topography partially overlaps with the neurofunctional network associated with cognitive emotion regulation strategies, suggesting common neural mechanisms.
Bearing Strength of Plastics and Plywood
Authors: Bond James 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
This paper reports the results of tests carried out under the supervision of Prof. Earl D. Hay in the materials-testing laboratory of the University of Kansas to determine the bearing strength of commercially available high-impact molded and laminated plastic sheets and resin-bonded birch plywood. Curves are shown for load versus deformation in per cent of bearing-pin diameter, and load versus permanent set in per cent of bearing-pin diameter. The tests demonstrated the inferiority of plywoods in bearing strength as compared with the reinforced plastics. Heating in most cases improves the bearing strength of specimens, while soaking them in water definitely decreases their strength, as compared with results on specimens conditioned at room temperature and a relative humidity of 55 per cent.
Pulverized Coal for Forge Furnaces
Authors: Engdahl R. B. , Graves F. E. 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
In the course of a survey to determine possibilities for the use of coal in the metallurgical industries, conducted for Bituminous Coal Research, Inc., at Battelle Memorial Institute, studies were made of the application of pulverized coal to forge furnaces. The results obtained and data compiled from the investigation of the action of pulverized coal in a small forge furnace in the laboratory are given in this paper. The conclusion is reached that pulverized coal is entirely suitable for use on many types and sizes of forging furnaces; that it has the same advantage of fluidity as gas and oil; and that it gives a flame of high emissivity which provides maximum heat transfer by radiation. Of particular importance is the fact that for most sections of the country it is the most economical fuel to use for this purpose.
Automatic Uniform Rolling-In of Small Tubes
Authors: Fisher F. F. , Cope E. T. 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
While successful methods for rolling-in large tubes, such as boiler tubes, have been developed, the rolling-in of tubes in surface condensers, feedwater heaters, air coolers, air heaters, and oil coolers has been mentioned but never described in the literature of the art. This paper reviews some of the current methods of rolling-in small tubes in heat exchangers, pointing out the shortcomings of each. The authors have conducted extensive investigations on the procedures of rolling-in small tubes and have devised an entirely new technique which they describe. The method employs an electric-motor-driven parallel-rolling self-feeding expander, which is entered to its full length into the tube end; damage to tube end and tube sheet and excessive friction between tool and tube or tube sheet being prevented by appropriately shaped ball-bearing thrust collars. The degree of expansion is controlled by a current-limiting relay. The effect of the starting current, which is greater in value than the setting of the current-limiting relay and would cause it to chatter, is controlled by an auxiliary switch built into the mechanism of the expander-motor drive. No special training or skill is required in the application of this technique.
Some Mechanical Properties of Plastics and Metals Under Sustained Vibrations
Authors: Lazan B. J. 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
A new oscillatory-type testing machine was developed for determining the mechanical properties of materials under alternating torsional stress. The damping capacity and dynamic modulus of rigidity of both plastics and metals were evaluated by the use of this machine and studies are reported of how these properties are affected by sustained cyclic stress below the endurance limit and also at impending fatigue failure. A similar dynamic testing machine was built for applying alternating direct stress, and parallel studies were made under axial loading conditions. The mechanical properties of selected materials in static tension, compression, and torsion were also determined to supplement the dynamic tests. The wide deviations observed between the static and dynamic moduli of elasticity for plastics are analyzed and are associated with the damping capacity of the material. The significance of these deviations, as related to the repeated constant-deflection type of fatigue test on plastics, is discussed. Experimental data on the damping capacities, dynamic moduli of elasticity, and some static mechanical properties are presented for mild steel, Duralumin, grade X laminated bakelite, laminated-canvas phenolic, and methyl-methacrylate plastic.
