Future and Negation
Authors: De Florio Ciro , Frigerio Aldo 
Published: August 2022

AbstractIn this article, we take into consideration two semantics of the future tense: linearism, according to which future-tense sentences are interpreted on a single history, and universalism, according to which they are evaluated by universally quantifying on the plurality of future histories that radiate from the present instant. Specifically, we focus on a objection advanced against universalism: if universalism were correct semantics of will, negated future-tense sentences of natural language should have two readings, depending on the scope of negation with respect to the universal quantifier on histories. However, since natural language does not show this difference, one may conclude that there is no universal quantifier in the interpretation of these sentences. We show that this conclusion is premature. First, will has clear scope interactions with indefinite nouns phrases, contrary to what linearism predicts. Second, it is possible to extend the treatment of vague predicates as partial predicates to will: Since partial predicates have no scope interactions with negation, this can account for the scopelessness of will. The partiality of truth conditions is not restricted to will but also pertains to counterfactuals and generics and probably is part of a general tendency to maximize contraries.
Validation of Affective Sentences: Extending Beyond Basic Emotion Categories
Authors: Zupan Barbra , Eskritt Michelle 
Published: August 2022

AbstractWe use nonverbal and verbal emotion cues to determine how others are feeling. Most studies in vocal emotion perception do not consider the influence of verbal content, using sentences with nonsense words or words that carry no emotional meaning. These online studies aimed to validate 95 sentences with verbal content intended to convey 10 emotions. Participants were asked to select the emotion that best described the emotional meaning of the sentence. Study 1 included 436 participants and Study 2 included 193. The Simpson diversity index was applied as a measure of dispersion of responses. Across the two studies, 38 sentences were labelled as representing 10 emotion categories with a low degree of diversity in participant responses. Expanding current databases beyond basic emotion categories is important for researchers exploring the interaction between tone of voice and verbal content, and/or people’s capacity to make subtle distinctions between their own and others’ emotions.
3-Dimensional mixed BF theory and Hitchin’s integrable system
Authors: Vicedo Benoît , Winstone Jennifer 
Published: August 2022

AbstractThe affine Gaudin model, associated with an untwisted affine Kac–Moody algebra, is known to arise from a certain gauge fixing of 4-dimensional mixed topological–holomorphic Chern–Simons theory in the Hamiltonian framework. We show that the finite Gaudin model, associated with a finite-dimensional semisimple Lie algebra, or more generally the tamely ramified Hitchin system on an arbitrary Riemann surface, can likewise be obtained from a similar gauge fixing of 3-dimensional mixed BF theory in the Hamiltonian framework.

Authors: Jebara Tesnime , McIntosh Trudi , Stewart Fiona , Osprey Adam , Bruce Rachel , Cunningham Scott 
Published: August 2022

Abstract
Background
Scottish Government is increasing independent prescribers (IP) in community pharmacy (CP). A new preceptorship model using IPs as Designated Prescribing Practitioners (DPPs) has been introduced.

Aim
To investigate stakeholder views of implementation of a novel regulator mandated IP course preceptorship model.

Method
A theory-based online pre-piloted survey of stakeholders including e.g. directors of pharmacy, prescribing, education leads, policy & strategy leads and CPs. Questionnaire development used Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) and a DPP Competency Framework. Data were analysed descriptively and presented with mapping to CFIR constructs.

Results
Of ninety-nine responses 82.5% (80/97) responded ‘yes’ to ‘..abilities in reporting concerns..’ and 53.1% (51/96) indicating ‘no’ to ‘..anticipated issues with clinical and diagnostic skills’. CFIR related facilitators included agreement that; there was tension for change with 84 (85%) indicating ‘….urgent need to implement role …’, that incentives are likely to help (6566%) and small pilots would help (8588%). Barriers were evident related to ‘unsure’ responses about sufficiency of; DPP capacity (39/97, 40.2%), time (48/96, 50%) and support and resources (4445%) to undertake the role. Concerns were expressed with 81 (83%) in agreement or unsure that leadership commitment may be lacking and 48 (48.9%) were ‘unsure’ about availability of good training for the DPP role.

Conclusion
There was DPP role positivity but expressed barriers and facilitators at policy, organisational and individual practitioner levels needing further consideration. Further research is warranted on uptake and embedding of the role.
Gypsum mining spoil improves plant emergence and growth in soils polluted with potentially harmful elements

Published: August 2022

Abstract

Purpose
Soil pollution is a major problem worldwide. Some anthropogenic activities, such as mining, may exceed soil capacity, causing relevant health and ecosystem hazards. The use of mineral amendments can help reduce soil pollution. Gypsum mining spoil (GS) is a waste material highly produced in gypsum mining industry, which has never been used in soil remediation despite its high potential as amendment of polluted soils. In this study, we carried out an ex-situ experiment to assess for the first time the capacity of GS to both reduce the availability of Potentially Harmful Elements (PHEs) in soils and promote seed emergence.

Methods
Soils affected by residual pollution after the Aznalcóllar mine spill were collected, treated with GS in three different proportions, and sown with seeds of two non-genetically related species. Seed emergence and biomass production were monitored, and PHE content in soils and plants were analysed.

Results
We have observed a direct and very positive relation between GS and both the reduction of PHE availability and PHE uptake by plants, and the increase of plant emergence and growth, especially with the addition of the highest doses of the amendment.

Conclusion
This study highlights the promising results of GS as a novel soil amendment to be used in the remediation of polluted soils and vegetation recovery. Moreover, using GS as soil amendment will bring the opportunity to sustainably manage this waste material and reduce its social and environmental impact parallelly to the mitigation of PHE hazards.
Programmatic review of the mosquito control methods used in the highly industrialized rice agroecosystems of Sacramento and Yolo Counties, California
Authors: Wheeler Sarah S. , Reed Marcia , Ramos Steve , Goodman Gary , Elkashef Samer 
Published: August 2022

AbstractIn the Sacramento Valley (California, USA), rice (Oryza sativa L.) fields are an economically important crop and productive habitats for the mosquito species Culex tarsalis and Anopheles freeborni. Since 2010, approximately 150 km2 of conventional and 16 km2 of organic rice have been grown in Sacramento and Yolo Counties. These fields are often within mosquito flight-range of both rural towns and urban centers. Culex tarsalis are highly competent vectors of West Nile virus, and An. freeborni are aggressive, mammalophagic, nuisance biters. The Sacramento–Yolo Mosquito and Vector Control District provides mosquito control for the two counties in its jurisdiction. The principles of Integrated Pest Management are used to control mosquitoes in rice growing areas, relying upon a range of surveillance and control interventions. Larvae are controlled by limiting habitats that enable development of immature mosquitoes while balancing agricultural and wildlife needs, applying larvicides, and the use of Gambusia affinis (mosquitofish). Adult mosquitoes are controlled by ultra-low volume pesticide applications. The program was assessed for larval and adult mosquito control efficacy and areas of programmatic improvement identified. Because rice fields are productive habitats for mosquitoes, complete elimination of the habitat is not a feasible goal, thus efforts are aimed at interrupting disease transmission and reducing the number of mosquitoes that traverse into populated areas.

AbstractBackgroundHome oxygen therapy (HOT) is indicated upon discharge in some preterm infants with severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). There is a lack of evidence-based consensus on the indication for HOT among these infants. Because wide variation in the institutional use of HOT exists, little is known about the role of regional social-economic level in the wide variation of HOT.MethodsThis was a secondary analysis of Chinese Neonatal Network (CHNN) data from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2019. Infants at gestational ages < 32 weeks, with a birth weight < 1500 g, and with moderate or severe BPD who survived to discharge from tertiary hospitals located in 25 provinces were included in this study. Infants with major congenital anomalies and those who were discharged against medical advice were excluded.ResultsOf 1768 preterm infants with BPD, 474 infants (26.8%) were discharged to home with oxygen. The proportion of HOT use in participating member hospitals varied from 0 to 89%, with five of 52 hospitals’ observing proportions of HOT use that were significantly greater than expected, with 14 hospitals with observing proportions significantly less than expected, and with 33 hospitals with appropriate proportions. We noted a negative correlation between different performance groups of HOT and median GDP per capita (P = 0.04).ConclusionsThe use of HOT varied across China and was negatively correlated with the levels of provincial economic levels. A local HOT guideline is needed to address the wide variation in HOT use with respect to different regional economic levels in countries like China.
The relations between self-reported perceptions of learning environment, observational learning strategies, and academic outcome
Authors: Han Feifei , Ellis Robert A. 
Published: August 2022

AbstractThis study investigated the relations between students’ self-reported perceptions of the blended learning environment, their observed online learning strategies, and their academic learning outcomes. The participants were 310 undergraduates enrolled in an introductory course on computer systems in an Australian metropolitan university. A Likert-scale questionnaire was used to examine students’ perceptions. The digital traces recorded in a bespoke learning management system were used to detect students’ observed online learning strategies. Using the data mining algorithms, including the Hidden Markov Model and an agglomerative hierarchical sequence clustering, four types of online learning strategies were found. The four strategies not only differed in the number of online learning sessions but also showed differences in the proportional distribution with regard to different online learning behaviors. A one-way ANOVA revealed that students adopting different online learning strategies differed significantly on their final course marks. Students who employed intensive theory application strategy achieved the highest whereas those used weak reading and weak theory application scored the lowest. The results of a cross-tabulation showed that the four types of observed online learning strategies were significantly associated with the better and poorer perceptions of the blended learning environment. Specially, amongst students who adopted the intensive theory application strategy, the proportion of students who self-reported better perceptions was significantly higher than those reporting poorer perceptions. In contrast, amongst students using the weak reading and weak theory application strategy, the proportion of students having poorer perceptions was significantly higher than those holding better perceptions.

Authors: Hong Ye Joo , Park Junyoung , Hahm Ja Young , Kim Song Hyun , Lee Dong Ho , Park Kwon-Sik , Seo Sang-Beom 
Published: August 2022

Abstract
Background
Ubiquitin-like with PHD and RING finger domains 1 (UHRF1) is upregulated in colon cancer cells and associated with silencing tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) to promote colon cancer cell proliferation.

Objective
To investigate epigenetic modification of UHRF1 by TIP60. Whether UHRF1 acetylation by TIP60 can induce cell proliferation in colon cancer cells.

Methods
Acetylation sites of UHRF1 by TIP60 was predicted by ASEB (Acetylation Set Enrichment Based) method and identified by immunoprecipitation assay using anti-pan-acetyl lysine antibody and in vitro acetylation assay. Based on this method, UHRF1 acetylation-deficient mimic 4KR (K644R, K646R, K648R, K650R) mutant was generated to investigate effects of UHRF1 acetylation by TIP60. shRNA system was used to generate stable knockdown cell line of UHRF1. With transient transfection of UHRF1 WT and 4KR, the effects of UHRF1 4KR mutant on Jun dimerization protein 2 (JDP2) gene expression, cell proliferation and cell cycle were investigated by RT-qPCR and FACS analysis in shUHRF1 colon cancer cell line.

Results
Downregulation of TIP60-mediated UHRF1 acetylation is correlated with suppressed cell cycle progression. Acetylation-deficient mimic of UHRF1 showed poor cell growth through increased expression of JDP2 gene.

Conclusions
Acetylation of UHRF1 4K residues by TIP60 is important for colon cancer cell growth. Furthermore, upregulated JDP2 expression by acetylation-deficient mutant of UHRF1 might be an important epigenetic target for colon cancer cell proliferation.
Food Insecurity and Type 2 Diabetes Among Latinos: Examining Neighborhood Cohesion as a Protective Factor
Authors: Osborn Brandon , Morey Brittany N. , Billimek John , Ro Annie 
Published: August 2022

AbstractQualitative work has found that Latino food pantry recipients share food and reciprocally provide social support to their food-insecure neighbors. These findings suggest that neighborhood cohesion (NC) may serve as an important community-level resource that Latinos utilize as a coping mechanism when food-insecure. High levels of NC may be a proxy for instrumental support outside the household and act as a buffer against the adverse health effects of food insecurity including type 2 diabetes (T2D), which is highly sensitive to food insecurity. The purpose of this study was to quantitatively test this theory by examining whether NC moderated the association between T2D and food security (FS) status among Latino adults nationwide. We used data from the 2013–2018 National Health Interview Survey (n = 23,478). We found that FS status was associated with T2D prevalence, with Latino adults having a higher odds of T2D if they had low FS or very low FS compared to their FS counterparts. We also found Latinos adults who reported high NC had a lower odds of T2D compared to those who reported low NC. However, we did not find there was significant interaction between FS status and NC on T2D. NC may instead be a precursor to FS status, rather than a buffer of food insecurity on T2D. Low NC may lead to less instrumental support and tangible benefits that determine FS. Additionally, perceived NC might not align with objective NC and T2D may be too distal of a health outcome to test the protective effect of NC.
Quantification of crack volumes in dynamically damaged soda-lime glass
Authors: Bauer Steffen , Butz Ines , Strassburger Elmar , Sauer Martin , Hiermaier Stefan 
Published: August 2022

AbstractIn this paper we present a novel test methodology for the generation of varying degrees of pre-damage in small soda-lime glass cylinders by dynamic loading in combination with a subsequent contactless damage quantification. In the first step, 13 glass specimens are placed in demountable aluminum confinements. The confinements are then impacted by flyer plates at different impact velocities between about 70 m/s and 400 m/s. Two high-speed cameras are used to investigate the velocities and the planarity of the impacts. Afterwards, three-dimensional visualizations of the recovered specimens are generated using conventional CT-imaging at a micro-CT-device and phase-contrast imaging at a beamline of a synchrotron. A concept is developed to determine the crack volumes by means of a region-growing algorithm. For five selected specimens, the mean total crack volume is determined as a function of the impact velocity. The developed methods are a first step to improve the predictive power of existing numerical simulation models of glasses and ceramics in scenarios with high velocity impact or ballistic penetration. In the specimens, defined, quantifiable damage is generated that can later be characterized, e.g. in triaxial compression tests, to obtain damage-dependent yield curves. This concept turns out to be a significant improvement in comparison to the characterization tests of previous studies, which used loosely poured glass quartz powder or specimens that had been pre-damaged quasi-statically without quantification of the degree of damage.
‘Other-wise’ Organizing. A Levinasian Approach to Agape in Work and Business Organisations
Authors: Hummels Harry , Nullens Patrick 
Published: August 2022

AbstractHumanistic management emphasises the importance of respecting humanity in and through meaningful work within organisations. In this paper we introduce a Levinasian approach to organising. Levinas argues that the Other appeals to us and allows us to take responsibility towards the Other – i.c. an employee, a customer, a supplier, etcetera. In this article our focus is on employees. By taking the Other as a starting point of his reflections, Levinas helps to transform the organisation and management of work and humans in business organisations. Based on the concept of alterity and becoming susceptible to the appeal that comes to us through what Levinas refers to as the ‘face of the Other’, we argue that the philosopher calls for ‘an agapeic turn’ to management and organisation. This turn means that the focus on the well-being of the employee – and the needs, interests, ideas, and expectations as perceived by him or her – should be at the core of organising. As a result, this paper calls for an increased focus on self-determination and self-organisation to allow the Other both voice and control over her or his behaviour, actions and contributions to the outputs and outcomes of one’s organisational unit. Through our focus on a Levinas approach, we concretize and deepen the traditional understanding of agape, making it more relevant to our functioning in a business setting. As a result, agape is introduced as an analytical concept that guides the structuring and the effectuation of human interaction in and through organisations.
Dust and powder in fusion plasmas: recent developments in theory, modeling, and experiments
Authors: Ratynskaia S. , Bortolon A. , Krasheninnikov S. I. 
Published: August 2022

AbstractIn this paper, we present a brief historic overview of the research on dust in fusion devices with carbon plasma-facing components and then highlight the most recent developments in the post-carbon era of the field. In particular, we consider how the metallic dust form, mobilize, and interact with fusion plasmas and plasma facing components. Achievements in wall conditioning and associated anomalous plasma transport modification, including ELM suppression, with the powder injection technique is another focus of the paper. Capabilities of the state-of-art simulation tools to describe different aspects of dust in fusion devices are exemplified and new directions for future dust studies are brought forward.
Training the eye, virtually: adapting an art in medicine curriculum for on-line learning

Published: August 2022

AbstractTraining the Eye: Improving the Art of Physical Diagnosis is an elective fine art-based medical humanities course at Harvard Medical School held at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston that aims to improve skills of observation. Due to COVID-19, this curriculum was converted from in-person to a virtual format for the first time in 2020. Students enrolled in the course prior to the pandemic and completed one session in person before transitioning unexpectedly to nine remote sessions through Zoom. Students were surveyed anonymously and TAs and faculty were interviewed regarding their perceptions of the strengths, weaknesses and future preferences of the virtual arts education at the course completion. Strengths identified in the virtual platform were being able to include participants irrespective of their location, incorporating most relevant artwork from any collection, harnessing virtual tools for enhanced art viewing, time-efficiency, and having a private, safe space for engaging in this type of learning. However, the experience in the galleries and the social interactions therein were noted to be impossible to fully recapitulate. Personal connections of the class were felt to be diminished and convenience increased. Both advantages (e.g., increased reach relative to types and locations of art works) and disadvantages (e.g., intimacy and connectivity promoted by in-gallery setting) of teaching arts-based medical humanities virtually were identified. A hybrid model may be able reap the benefits of both formats when it is safe to host such courses in person. Parallel lessons may be applicable to optimizing telemedicine encounters.
A multicenter analysis of inpatient antibiotic use during the 2015–2019 influenza seasons in the United States: Untapped opportunities for antimicrobial stewardship

Published: August 2022

Abstract
Outpatient antibiotic use increases during winter months, but information on temporal changes in inpatient antibiotic use in US hospitals is limited. The use of certain inpatient antibiotics, including extended-spectrum cephalosporins, macrolides, and tetracyclines, was strongly associated with influenza activity during the 2015–2019 viral respiratory seasons.
