description: © 2020 Lippincott Williams and Wilkins. All rights reserved. Background: Cardiac fibrosis is a key antecedent to many types of cardiac dysfunction including heart failure. Physiological factors leading to cardiac fibrosis have been recognized for decades. However, the specific cellular and molecular mediators that drive cardiac fibrosis, and the relative effect of disparate cell populations on cardiac fibrosis, remain unclear. Methods: We developed a novel cardiac single-cell transcriptomic strategy to characterize the cardiac cellulome, the network of cells that forms the heart. This method was used to profile the cardiac cellular ecosystem in response to 2 weeks of continuous administration of angiotensin II, a profibrotic stimulus that drives pathological cardiac remodeling. Results: Our analysis provides a comprehensive map of the cardiac cellular landscape uncovering multiple cell populations that contribute to pathological remodeling of the extracellular matrix of the heart. Two phenotypically distinct fibroblast populations, Fibroblast-Cilp and Fibroblast-Thbs4, emerged after induction of tissue stress to promote fibrosis in the absence of smooth muscle actin-expressing myofibroblasts, a key profibrotic cell population. After angiotensin II treatment, Fibroblast-Cilp develops as the most abundant fibroblast subpopulation and the predominant fibrogenic cell type. Mapping intercellular communication networks within the heart, we identified key intercellular trophic relationships and shifts in cellular communication after angiotensin II treatment that promote the development of a profibrotic cellular microenvironment. Furthermore, the cellular responses to angiotensin II and the relative abundance of fibrogenic cells were sexually dimorphic. Conclusions: These results offer a valuable resource for exploring the cardiac cellular landscape in health and after chronic cardiovascular stress. These data provide insights into the cellular and molecular mechanisms that promote pathological remodeling of the mammalian heart, highlighting early transcriptional changes that precede chronic cardiac fibrosis.

description: © 2020 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. Across the world billions of dollars of damage are attributed to rodents, resulting in them being classified collectively as the biggest animal pest in the world. At a commercial scale most pest control companies employ the labour intensive approach of deploying and manually monitoring rodenticide bait stations. In this paper was present, RatSpy, a visual, low-power bait station monitoring system which wirelessly reports both on bait station levels and intruders entering the bait station. The smart bait stations report data back to a custom designed cloud platform. The system performance was evaluated under realistic field conditions (on an active cattle farm) with initial results showing significant potential in terms of reducing manual labour, improving scalability and data.

description: The purpose of this poster is twofold: (1) to highlight a collection of personal papers from the late scholar, curator, and artist Dr. Michael D. Harris newly accessible at the David C. Driskell Center (University of Maryland) and (2) to examine how terminologies and arrangements used by archives may resist colonial ontologies in art historical scholarship. The latter reflects a self-reflective and ongoing practice. The poster centers the work of Dr. Michael D. Harris (1948-2022), an instrumental voice in the recognition and development of African and African American Art History in the United States. Dr. Harris held a BA in Education from Bowling Green State University, an MFA in Painting from Howard University, an MA in African American Studies from Yale University, and an MA, MPhil, and Ph.D. in Art History, also from Yale. He held multiple teaching appointments throughout his career and retired in 2020 as Associate Professor Emeritus at Emory University. He was also active in museums and galleries, serving as curator for institutions including the Harvey B. Gantt Center for African American Art and Culture (NC) and the High Museum of Art (GA). His book Colored Pictures: Race and Visual Representation was published by the University of North Carolina Press in 2003. As an artist, Harris was a member of AfriCOBRA, or the African Commune of Bad Relevant Artists, which began in Chicago in the 1960s. The Harris Collection is rich in materials chronicling AfriCOBRA throughout the decades and topics including contemporary Yoruba art in Ile-Ife, African American visual representations and image-making, the visual culture of the African diaspora, music, and poetry.

description: © 2020 Rossetto et al. Background: Research indicates that school-based first aid programmes appear to improve students' knowledge and skills. However, evidence for their effectiveness is limited by a lack of rigorously designed studies. This research used a cluster randomised crossover trial to assess the effects of two different types of first aid training on the frequency and appropriateness of older adolescents' first aid behaviours towards their peers 12 months after training. Methods: Schools eligible to participate were government funded and able to accommodate first aid training and survey time for two consecutive Year 10 student cohorts. Four Australian public schools were matched in two pairs and randomly assigned to receive either physical first aid (PFA) or teen mental health first aid (tMHFA) training for their Year 10 student cohort (mean age 16 years). In the second year, the new Year 10 cohort received the other intervention. Four cohorts were randomised to receive PFA and four were randomised to receive tMHFA. Online surveys were administered at baseline and 12 months after training, measuring whether students had encountered a peer needing PFA, whether they had provided PFA, what actions they performed and, if applicable, why they had been unable to help the person. Only research staff analysing the data could be blinded to measurement occasion, school identity and condition. Results: Four cohorts received PFA and four received tMHFA. The results indicated that there were no differences between groups regarding the frequency of appropriate first aid actions performed 12 months after training. The most common types of PFA provided to a peer were sending for help and wound care. Students most commonly mentioned someone else attending to their peer or lacking skills or experience as reasons for not performing PFA actions. Conclusions: More research that examines first aid behaviours using rigorous, longitudinal study designs is needed to establish the effectiveness of school-based first aid training for older adolescents.

description: 5-amino-2,4,6-trinitrobenzene-1,3-diol (ATNBD) was synthesized using an improved literature method. The reactions of ATNBD with different N-bases (e.g., ammonia, hydrazine, hydroxylamine, and guanidine) and metathesis reactions producing energetic salts were reported. Several energetic compounds were synthesized and characterized for the first time using multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, elemental analysis, and differential scanning calorimetry (TG-DSC). The crystal structures of ATNBD and three energetic salts were determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction at room temperature. Heats of formation (HOF) for the metal-free species were calculated using the Gaussian 09 software. Detonation parameters were estimated using the EXPLO5 program. The sensitivities toward impact and friction were also determined. Energetic evaluation indicates that, in addition to the molecular ATNBD, some ionic derivatives, 3, 4, 5, and 9, also have high densities (1.79–1.88 g cm−3), good detonation pressures, and velocities (P, 31.5–38.8 GPa; vD, 8450–9097 m s−1), as well as acceptable impact and friction sensitivities (IS, 5–42 J; FS, 120–360 N). These attractive features highlight the application potential of the salts of 3, 4, and 9.

description: This presentation took place on April 4, 2024 as part of the 52nd ARLIS/NA Conference and centered caregivers sharing their experiences negotiating, advocating for, planning for, and returning from parental or family leave.

Securing leave upon the birth or adoption of a child, or as a result of eldercare or other caregiver obligations, is a challenge exacerbated by the fact that every institution has a different policy (if they have one at all) and requires different procedures to navigate the request. This is an element of our work for which we are not trained. Therefore, our professional community must work together to provide essential advocacy and support for caregivers who are preparing to go on leave, and for supervisors who must redesign workflows in preparation for their departure. This session also acknowledges that, in many cases, caregivers are not able to arrange for leave without direct support from their colleagues and supervisors. It can be especially challenging for librarians working in small settings (and with small budgets) to plan for library operations and coverage while they or other employees are on leave. Additionally, continued support and flexible accommodations are necessary for caregiving employees upon their return to work, and come with their own challenges and stigmas.

Plant defensins are best known for their antifungal activity and contribution to the plant immune system. The defining feature of plant defensins is their three-dimensional structure known as the cysteine stabilized alpha-beta motif. This protein fold is remarkably tolerant to sequence variation with only the eight cysteines that contribute to the stabilizing disulfide bonds absolutely conserved across the family. Mature defensins are typically 46–50 amino acids in length and are enriched in lysine and/or arginine residues. Examination of a database of approximately 1200 defensin sequences revealed a subset of defensin sequences that were extended in length and were enriched in histidine residues leading to their classification as histidine-rich defensins (HRDs). Using these initial HRD sequences as a query, a search of the available sequence databases identified over 750 HRDs in solanaceous plants and 20 in brassicas. Histidine residues are known to contribute to metal binding functions in proteins leading to the hypothesis that HRDs would have metal binding properties. A selection of the HRD sequences were recombinantly expressed and purified and their antifungal and metal binding activity was characterized. Of the four HRDs that were successfully expressed all displayed some level of metal binding and two of four had antifungal activity. Structural characterization of the other HRDs identified a novel pattern of disulfide linkages in one of the HRDs that is predicted to also occur in HRDs with similar cysteine spacing. Metal binding by HRDs represents a specialization of the plant defensin fold outside of antifungal activity.

description: The compatibility of binders and plasticizers has a significant influence on the properties of polymer-bonded explosives. Molecular dynamics was employed to explore the compatibility between nitrocellulose (NC) with different nitrogen contents and three azido plasticizers by the solubility parameter, mean square displacement, binding energy, radial distribution function (RDF), radius of gyration, and volume distribution. With the increase of nitrogen content, the solubility parameters of NCs decreased and were in good accordance with the reporting results. 1,5-diazido-3-oxapentane (AZDEGDN) had a stronger diffusion ability in NC than that of the other two plasticizers. The introduction of the RDF suggested that the strong interaction between the NC and AZDEGDN mainly came from the hydrogen bonds between hydroxyl groups of NC molecules and the azido in plasticizers. AZDEGDN increased the free volume in NC/AZDEGDN blends, and the mobility of the molecular chains was enhanced, thus the radius of gyration of the NC molecular chains increased. The comprehensive performances demonstrated that AZDEGDN had a strong plasticizing effect on NC because of hydrogen bonds, presenting a potential option for optimizing explosives formulations.

description: Functional play during early childhood paves the way to symbolic play and social communicative skills. However, functional play is surprisingly understudied in children with developmental disorders affecting social and communicative domains, such as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Williams syndrome (WS). To address this issue and to evaluate both the quantity and quality of functional play in children with ASD and WS, we examined different play types using fine grained behavioral analysis with a group of age and IQ-matched developmentally delayed children with ASD (n = 14) and WS (n = 14) in comparison with 12 age-matched typically developing (TD) children. Significant differences were found in the quantity of functional play in the ASD and WS groups compared to TD children, with a limited breadth of object exploration found in children with ASD. While TD children engaged more frequently in functional versus nonfunctional play, this was not the case for children with ASD and WS, who showed the same amount of functional and nonfunctional play. Furthermore, functional play behavior was associated with intellectual and adaptive function in children with WS, but not ASD. These results point to the importance of intervention strategies that focus on functional play in improving developmental outcomes for children with ASD and WS.

description: Understanding the interfacial properties of high energy explosives blended with polymer binders is important for optimizing material performance and predicting aging. In the case of PBX 9502, direct measurements of the TATB – Kel-F 800 interface have been limited by the lack of high-fidelity model systems. This paper reports the fabrication of a new thin film, model TATB sample to enable neutron reflectometry measurements of this interface. The fabricated TATB films were characterized using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and atomic force microscopy. The film deposits in the same polymorph as the TATB crystallites in PBX 9502, but in the form of highly textured nanopillars that are ~200 nm wide. The buried interface of the TATB film (i.e., bottoms of the pillars) has an rms roughness of ~3 nm and is the (001) crystal face. The TATB films retain their features when deposited on Kel-F 800 thin films, enabling the formation of layered PBX 9502 model samples. Neutron reflectometry measurements showed increasing roughness of the TATB – Kel-F 800 interface with thermal aging, consistent with void formation at this interface.

Developments in Linked Open Data for Cultural Heritage

description: This roundtable discussion will explore exciting new developments in cultural heritage Linked Open Data (LOD), using LUX as a jumping off point. Kelly Davis (Cultural Heritage Data Engineer) and Heather Gendron (Director, Arts Library) will talk briefly about what it took to create LUX, a cross-collections, fully LOD platform for the University's cultural heritage collections containing over 46 million records.

LUX's creation was predicated on a culture change across the institution's collecting units, which include three world-class museums (Center for British Art, University Art Gallery, Natural History Museum), and the majority of the University Library system, including the Arts Library and the Rare Books and Manuscript Library. The success of the project relied on a Cultural Heritage governance framework, with each unit's role being understood as contributing to the goals of the University, and less as their own discrete individual organizations. This concept can be applied to the entire field of cultural heritage, as Linked Data's success comes from a critical mass, and the more Linked Data created by institutions, the stronger the research value. With the launch of LUX, the field now has a prototype to point to after many years of theoretical discussion of such a platform's success.

The discussion will also touch on Linked Data efforts at global museums of art and other Linked Data projects built in Wikidata.

Three questions:

What's the future of Linked Data for cultural heritage? Where have we been and where are we going?

description: The current study examined the stabilizing effect of lignin biopolymer in comparison to traditional 2-nitrodiphenylamine (2-NDPA) and 1,3-Dimethyl-1,3-diphenylurea (C-II) stabilizers on the stability of double-base nitrocellulose (NC)/diethylene glycol dinitrate (DEGDN) propellant during artificial aging (at 338.65 K for 60 days). Various spectroscopic techniques, including Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray Diffraction (XRD), were used, along with traditional stability tests like the Bergmann-Junk (BJ) test and isothermal thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Experimental results confirmed that FTIR and XRD provided valuable insights into chemical changes during aging. Particularly, lignin-stabilized NC/DEGDN exhibited comparable stability to C-II and 2-NDPA at all stages of aging, as evidenced by the amount of the released nitrous gases measured by BJ test and thermal stability assessed by TGA. Additionally, multivariate data analysis using principal component analysis (PCA) of FTIR spectra successfully differentiated between aged and unaged samples and highlighted trends in stability. Overall, the findings suggest that lignin offers a comparable stabilizing effect for NC/DEGDN propellants relative to traditional stabilizers.

description: © The Author(s) 2020. Objectives: Volunteering is associated with positive well-being among older people, providing opportunities to stay active and socially connected. This may be especially relevant for older lesbian and gay people, who are less likely than heterosexual people to have a partner, children or support from their family of origin. Methods: Patterns of volunteering and mental, physical and social well-being were examined in a sample of 754 lesbian and gay adults in Australia aged 60 years and older who completed a nationwide survey. Results: Volunteers reported greater positive mental health than non-volunteers. Among the gay men, volunteers additionally reported higher self-rated health and social support and lower psychological distress. Both the lesbian women and gay men who volunteered for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or intersex (LGBTI) organisations also reported greater LGBTI community connectedness than volunteers for non-LGBTI organisations. Discussion: These findings provide further insight into potential factors associated with the well-being of older lesbian and gay adults.

description: Background: Heterogeneity in the phenotypic presentation of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is apparent in the profile and the severity of sensory features. Here, we applied factor mixture modelling (FMM) to test a multidimensional factor model of sensory processing in ASD. We aimed to identify homogeneous sensory subgroups in ASD that differ intrinsically in their severity along continuous factor scores. We also investigated sensory subgroups in relation to clinical variables: sex, age, IQ, social-communication symptoms, restricted and repetitive behaviours, adaptive functioning and symptoms of anxiety and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. Methods: Three hundred thirty-two children and adults with ASD between the ages of 6 and 30 years with IQs varying between 40 and 148 were included. First, three different confirmatory factor models were fit to the 38 items of the Short Sensory Profile (SSP). Then, latent class models (with two-to-six subgroups) were evaluated. The best performing factor model, the 7-factor structure, was subsequently used in two FMMs that varied in the number of subgroups: a two-subgroup, seven-factor model and a three-subgroup and seven-factor model. Results: The 'three-subgroup/seven-factor' FMM was superior to all other models based on different fit criteria. Identified subgroups differed in sensory severity from severe, moderate to low. Accounting for the potential confounding effects of age and IQ, participants in these sensory subgroups had different levels of social-communicative symptoms, restricted and repetitive behaviours, adaptive functioning skills and symptoms of inattention and anxiety. Limitations: Results were derived using a single parent-report measure of sensory features, the SSP, which limits the generalisability of findings. Conclusion: Sensory features can be best described by three homogeneous sensory subgroups that differ in sensory severity gradients along seven continuous factor scores. Identified sensory subgroups were further differentiated by the severity of core and co-occurring symptoms, and level of adaptive functioning, providing novel evidence on the associated clinical correlates of sensory subgroups. These sensory subgroups provide a platform to further interrogate the neurobiological and genetic correlates of altered sensory processing in ASD.

description: In the spirit of Pop Art, this panel seeks to expand upon the traditional conference panel by bringing together nine librarians from a range of institutions to give brief, lightning talk-style presentations on projects currently taking place in technical services and cataloging departments across our profession. These projects will highlight the diversity of activities taking place in these departments and demonstrate how cataloging, metadata, and technical services librarians are engaging with new and emerging technologies to make collections more discoverable and to help address DEIA-AR concerns.

Topics addressed include: distributing records sets of publicly accessible PDF exhibition catalogs by and about BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ artists; expanding representation in library collection materials through acquisitions; processing and cataloging photobooks; migrating to and leveraging the potential of Alma; engaging with Wikidata in various libraries; documenting artists' books terms; reconciling data following a library merger; and collecting and processing graduate theses.

This panel will embrace the playfulness of Pop Art by quickly touching on a large number of projects and then opening the session to the audience (as well as the presenters themselves) to dig deeper into the projects of interest to them, as well as to create a space to develop new project ideas that people can take back to their institutions.

description: © 2020 John Wiley & Sons Ltd Aim: To appraise and synthesize evidence of empirical studies reporting assessment of new graduate nurses’ clinical competence in clinical settings. Design: Mixed methods systematic review. Data sources: The search strategy included keywords relevant to: new graduate nurse; clinical competence; and competence assessment. The searched literature databases included CINAHL, MEDLINE, Embase, PsycINFO and Web of Science. The search was limited to full-text papers in English or French, published between 2010 –September 2019. Review Methods: Inclusion criteria were: 1) empirical studies; 2) detailed method and complete results sections; 3) competence assessment in clinical settings; and 4) new graduate nurses (≤24 months). Two independent reviewers screened eligible papers, extracted data and used the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool framework for quality appraisal. Divergences were solved through discussion. Results: About 42 papers were included in this review: quantitative (N = 31), qualitative (N = 7) and mixed methods (N = 4). Findings suggest that new graduate nurses exhibit a good or adequate level of competence. Longitudinal studies show a significant increase in competence from 0–6 months, but findings are inconsistent from 6-12 months. Conclusion: There are a multitude of quantitative tools available to measure clinical competence. This suggests a need for a review of their rigor. Impact: No recent reviews comprehensively synthesized the findings from new graduate nurses’ clinical competence. This review has found that new graduate nurses’ competence has been mostly assessed as good, despite the expectation that they should be more competent. Longitudinal studies did not always show a significant increase in competence. These findings can help nurse educators in providing more support to new graduate nurses throughout the transition period or design improved transition programme. This review also identified quantitative tools and qualitative methods that can be used for competence assessment.
