description: In the recent decades, China has experienced rapid economic development accompanied by increasing concentrations of ambient PM2.5, particulate matter of less than 2.5 micrometers in diameter. PM2.5 is now believed to be a carcinogen, causing higher lung cancer risks and generating losses to the economy and the society. This meta-analysis evaluates the losses generated by ambient PM2.5 in Suzhou from 2014–2016, and predicts losses at different concentrations. Estimations of total losses in Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Guangzhou, Dalian, and Xiamen are also presented, with a total national loss in 2015. We then demonstrated that lowering ambient PM2.5 concentrations would be a realistic way for China to reduce the evaluated social losses in the short-term. Possible legal measures are listed for lowering ambient PM2.5 concentrations. Implications: Our findings quantify the economic effects of ambient PM2.5 due to the raised incidence rate and mortality rate of lung cancer. Lowering ambient PM2.5 concentrations would be the most realistic way for China to reduce the evaluated social losses in the short-term. Possible legal measures for lowering ambient PM2.5 concentrations to reduce the total losses are identified.

Peak identification

description: Lipidomics uses high performance liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry via electrospray ionization to comprehensively identify and quantify all lipid species in a biological system. Divided into untargeted and targeted approaches, untargeted lipidomics is viewed as a discovery-driven method to possibly identify all lipids, while targeted lipidomics is considered an approach limited to quantifying known lipids. While there are many bioinformatics tools to facilitate lipid identification in untargeted lipidomics datasets, there are few tools to annotate lipid identities in targeted datasets. Thus, I present two novel bioinformatics tools to annotate and identify lipids from targeted lipidomics data. The first tool annotates lipid isotopes and in-source artifacts caused by electrospray ionization from targeted lipidomics. Using this tool, I highlight problems associated with the manual curation approach conventionally used to pick peaks from targeted lipidomics data. In Bayesian Annotations for Targeted Lipidomics (BATL), I present the first principled and accurate classifier for the identification of targeted lipidomics data. This program eliminates human subjectivity associated with peak identification. Combining these bioinformatics tools together, I conclude by presenting a fully unbiased, discovery-driven, targeted lipidomics pipeline, enabling the identification of all lipid isomers detected from targeted lipidomics data.

three percent problem

description: Translations are a staple of many national literary scenes around the globe. However, while around 80 percent of all translations published between 2000 and 2009 were from an English original, only around 8 percent of them were into English (Bellos 210). When compared to the American publishing landscape, the central market in the Anglosphere, only about 3 percent of all publications are works in translation, a statistic also known as the Three Percent Problem (Sapiro 242). Many readers and researchers share “the view that reading literature from other countries is vital to maintaining a vibrant book culture and to increasing the exchange of ideas among cultures” (“About Three Percent”).

Personality and Cultural Attitudes

Subjects: Cultural Attitudes

Appreciation

description: In a multicultural society, people can embrace or reject cultural diversity to different degrees. These mixed feelings can be more salient in certain contexts that stir intercultural conflicts, but they can also arise from within people’s nature. Recent research suggests that cultural attitudes may partially result from personality traits that compose our human nature. My doctoral project investigates cultural attitudes, which represent both negative and positive attitudes towards ethnocultural groups and their relationships with personality and ideological attitudes. I conducted two independent studies that will examine negative (prejudice) and positive (appreciation) cultural attitudes. In my first study, I built on and extended the influential Dual Process Model (DPM; Duckitt, 2001) by positing that personality traits predict cultural attitudes through two different mediated mechanisms: 1) Agreeableness predicts cultural attitudes through social dominance orientation (SDO), whereas 2) Openness predicts cultural attitudes through right-wing authoritarianism (RWA). Notably, I extended the Dual Process Model given that the original version (DPM) only explains prejudice, whereas my version (DPM-2) explains both cultural prejudice and cultural appreciation as dual outcomes. This first study is a meta-analysis that reviews all empirical work that can pertain to the DPM and the DPM-2. My meta-analysis provides shows that the DPM and the DPM-2 seem to be supported by the data. It also shows that cultural prejudice and cultural appreciation are related to personality and ideological attitudes to a different extent. This finding suggest that cultural prejudice and cultural attitudes are partially distinct. My second study validates a much-needed cultural attitudes scale (prejudice and appreciation) that is adapted to the Canadian multicultural context: The Multi-outgroup Inventory of Cultural Attitudes (MICA). This study shows that in the first sample, the factorial structure of the MICA is supported, the MICA scores are reliable, and the scale has a good validity. The second independent sample of this study replicates almost all the results, which provide event more support for the validity and reliability of the scores of MICA. The relationship between the cultural prejudice factor and the cultural appreciation factor of the MICA shows that the factors are negatively related, and partially distinct. This doctoral project contributes to a better understanding of prejudice and appreciation of ethnocultural groups in a multicultural context. Overall, it shows that cultural prejudice and cultural appreciation are negatively related constructs that are at least partially distinct.

refugee aid

description: In 2015, when large numbers of people began fleeing war in Syria, former German Chancellor Angela Merkel claimed that she would allow a million refugees into her country, uttering the much debated words “Wir schaffen das!” (We can do this!”). Politicians faced many dilemmas in 2015 and all across Europe, policy makers eventually admitted to having made mistakes. Addressing new challenges and past failures, European Commissioner for Home Affairs Ylva Johansson told the press in March 2022, that politicians have learned lessons from their mistakes. It can thus be assumed that this time in Europe “we can do this better” with the millions of Ukrainian refugees, possibly with the help of civil society again. It is in fact civil society that is often anxious to maintain the momentum of the search for sustainable solutions for refugees. This paper closely examines the local voluntary association ‘Move and Meet’ that was originally founded in 2016 in Münster, Germany, soon after the 2015 refugee crisis to support and include female migrants through physical activity into society. It will be argued that for the new wave that includes mostly Ukrainian women, it is beneficial to look at successful examples of civil society initiatives that were established to help female migrants who arrived to Europe in 2015. It is through these players that the game’s momentum can be kept up so that politicians this time may exclaim: “We can win this!”.

description: The effects of specific functional groups of pollinators in the diversification of angiosperms are still to be elucidated. We investigated whether the pollination shifts or the specific association with hummingbirds affected the diversification of a highly diverse angiosperm lineage in the Neotropics. We reconstructed a phylogeny of 583 species from the Gesneriaceae family and detected diversification shifts through time, inferred the timing and amount of transitions among pollinator functional groups, and tested the association between hummingbird pollination and speciation and extinction rates. We identified a high-frequency of pollinator transitions, including reversals to insect pollination. Diversification rates of the group increased through time since 25 Ma, coinciding with the evolution of hummingbird-like flowers and the arrival of hummingbirds in South America. We showed that plants pollinated by hummingbirds have a twofold higher speciation rate compared with plants pollinated by insects, and that transitions among functional groups of pollinators had a little impact on the diversification process. We demonstrated that floral specialization on hummingbirds for pollination has triggered rapid diversification in the Gesneriaceae family since the Early Miocene, and that it represents one of the oldest identified plant–hummingbird associations. Biotic drivers of plant diversification in the Neotropics could be more related to this specific type of pollinator (hummingbirds), than to shifts among different functional groups of pollinators.

Wars, global pandemics, or natural catastrophes can prompt us to take notice of the inequalities still prevalent in the present, to question the status quo and to imagine alternative futures where such injustices no longer exist. Literature is a suitable resource for experiencing contemporary imaginations of the future, set either in a utopian place, where everything is better than in our society today, or one where everything is worse—the dystopia.

description: Neuroscience has become, more and more, a tool used to explain and define human behaviour. This neurologizing of behaviour not only occurs in scientific studies, but also in criminal law where brain scans are used to determine culpability. One specific group of people that has been subject to this neurologization is adolescents. Recent scientific research has studied brain development in order to explain adolescent behaviour. In addition, neurological development has been used to explain the differing treatment of adolescents versus adults in the criminal justice system. To explore this neurologization of adolescence, this thesis focuses on one research paper produced from a team of prominent researchers in the field of adolescent psychology. This exploration adopts a relational view of science from Actor Network Theory. The goal of the analysis is to explore the facticity of statements produced in science through the neurologization of adolescence. It is important to consider the scientific process of fact production in order to understand the way in which these neuroscience explanations and definitions of behaviour hold together so strongly. I explore how the neurologization of adolescence from one research paper builds and maintains connections through multiple movements, producing a neurologized adolescent entity that forms part of reality. Through each movement, the neurologized adolescent grows longer and stronger in its connections to social, material, and cultural actors, thus ensuring that it holds together as fact.

description: Background: A nurse-led chest tube removal protocol (CTR) was implemented on two units. Aim: Evaluate the implementation of the protocol. Methods: A two-group cohort study was completed. Phase 1: Chest tube indwell time, length of stay, and complication rates were analyzed. Phase 2: A knowledge survey, chart reviews and observational audits were used to evaluate the uptake post-implementation. Findings: Phase 1: Reduction in chest tube indwell time (median 73.5 hours versus 52.7 hours, p = 0.0164) and length of stay (median 4.0 days versus 3.0 days, p = 0.0008) were noted in the post implementation group. Phase 2: Nurses completed patient assessments (n=22, 88% versus n=18, 72%) and teaching (n=22, 88% versus n=11, 56%) more frequently than they documented in the patient health record. Conclusion: Findings show that delegation of CTR to nurses with a standardized CTR protocol is safe and effective. Development of CTR documentation templates could improve documentation accuracy.
title: Making ‘Race’ at the Urban Margins: Latin American and Caribbean Migration in Multicultural Chile
Creators: name: Bonhomme, Macarena
Publisher: name: Goldsmiths, University of London
Year: 2022

description: This thesis explores how ‘race’ is made at the national and local level in multicultural postcolonial Chile. Furthermore, it examines how Latin American and Caribbean migrants negotiate both state and everyday racisms, navigating boundaries of belonging at the urban margins. Racist state politics have not only been embedded since colonial times and the foundations of the Chilean nation-state by the systematic denial of the presence and rights of Afro-Chileans and indigenous communities, but are reinforced by immigration policies that have created exclusionary boundaries against the colonial ‘non-white’ ‘other,’ especially Afro-descendants. Drawing on a 17-month ethnography, 70 in-depth interviews and two focus groups with migrants and Chileans between 2015 and 2018, this thesis deconstructs contemporary racism in Latin America amid growing South-South migration, uncovering multiple interplaying factors. I show how immigration policies have impacted migrants’ lives, ranking them into racial hierarchies of belonging that are reproduced and materialised in the neighbourhood, even reinforcing everyday racisms. It reveals that contemporary racism emerges from a complex entanglement between ‘old racisms’ of biological heredity and cultural racisms. Foremost, it exposes how racism and the process of ‘othering’ operates at different levels across society. Both Chileans and migrants redefine their ‘racial’ identities and constantly assert their ‘whiteness’ in different ways. Racial formations and colonial representations of ‘indigeneity’ and ‘African-ness’ are redefined and racisms are reproduced in new instantiations amid the struggle for resources. This thesis contributes empirically and theoretically to migration, racial, and de- and post-colonial studies in Latin America, transcending both the nationally-bounded and biologically-grounded ideas on how racism operates. While Chileans produce difference to assert a superior status by making migrants feel like ‘space invaders,’ migrants, especially former migrants, produce difference to navigate racisms and claim their ‘right to the city’ amidst social exclusion. This ethnography unveils the most challenging aspect of multiculturalism.

description: Waste tire rubber (WTR) has been introduced as an alternative, novel media for biofilm development in several experimental systems including attached growth bioreactors. In this context, four laboratory-scale static batch bioreactors containing WTR as a support material for biofilm development were run under anoxic condition for 90 days using waste activated sludge as an inoculum under the influence of different concentrations (2.5, 6.5, 8.5 mg/l) of trivalent ferric iron (Fe3+). The data revealed that activated sludge with a Fe3+ concentration of 8.5 mg/l supported the maximum bacterial biomass [4.73E + 10 CFU/ml cm2]; besides, it removed 38% more Chemical oxygen demand compared to Fe3+ free condition from the reactor. Biochemical testing and 16S rDNA phylogenetic analysis of WTR-derived biofilm communities further suggested the role of varying concentrations of Fe3+ on the density and diversity of members of Enterobacteria(ceae), ammonium (AOB) and nitrite oxidizing bacteria. Furthermore, Fluorescent in situ hybridization with phylogenetic oligonucleotide probes and confocal laser scanning microscopy of WTR biofilms indicated a significant increase in density of eubacteria (3.00E + 01 to.05E + 02 cells/cm2) and beta proteobacteria (8.10E + 01 to 1.42E + 02 cells/cm2), respectively, with an increase in Fe3+ concentration in the reactors, whereas, the cell density of gamma proteobacteria in biofilms decreased.

description: Animal-bone-meal-supported palladium (0) was prepared and used as catalyst in the Suzuki coupling reaction in water, under sunlight as an alternative source of energy. This palladium has showed a high catalytic activity than tetrakis(triphenylphosphine) palladium (Pd(PPh3)4) in the Suzuki cross-coupling reaction (the reaction of 4-halogenopyridopyrimidine with boronic acids) in water via sunlight as the light source, with no addition of ligands. This green method affords heteroaryls with excellent yields in comparison with the classical method using tetrakis(triphenylphosphine) palladium. The green catalyst did not show any significant loss of activity, even when used up to five times.

description: Postcolonial studies was first coined as a term for academic purposes in the 1960s. In their early years, postcolonial
studies primarily focused on critical engagement with literature and revealing the impact of colonization in everyday life. The Survival Handbook of the Portuguese Discoverers in the Anti-Colonial World belongs to this kind
of literature. The book was published in Brazil (Edições Macondo) in October 2020, and it was later published in Portugal (Douda Correria) in December of that same year. The Survival Handbook, which has not yet been translated into English or German, makes a relevant critique that postcolonial studies need to investigate. In this article, I present the book’s postcolonial critique.

description: Magnolia grandiflora (Magnoliaceae) is an evergreen tree with fragrant and showy flowers native to southeastern USA but widely cultivated all over the world and used in cosmetics industry in treatment of skin diseases. Here, we report on the chemical analysis of the essential oil obtained from flowers of plants cultivated in Iran, together with the evaluation of its antioxidant and cytotoxic activities. The essential oil composition was dominated by bioactive sesquiterpenes, namely β-elemene, bicyclogermacrene, germacrene D and (E)-caryophyllene. The oil exhibited moderate radical scavenging activity towards the radical, and mild non-selective inhibitory effects against A375, MDA-MB 231 and T98 G tumour cell lines. The latter were influenced by the presence of the anticancer β-elemene. These results provided new insights for potential application of M. grandiflora volatile oil in the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industry where only the non-volatile magnolol and honokiol have hitherto been fully exploited.

description: The crude methanolic extracts from leaves of Eucalyptus camaldulensis L., E. camaldulensis var obtusa and E. gomphocephala grown in Egypt were investigated to explore their chemical composition as well as their antibacterial, antifungal and antioxidant activities. Major phenolics found were ellagic acid, quercetin 3-O-rhamnoside, quercetin 3-O-b-D-glucuronide, caffeic acid and chlorogenic acid. The antioxidant activities were examined by the 2,2′-diphenypicrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and β-Carotene-linoleic acid assays. E. camaldulensis extracts showed the highest phenolic content, antioxidant and antimicrobial activities compared to other cultivars. MIC values reported for antibacterial activity of E. camaldulensis ranged from 0.08 μg/mL (Bacillus cereus) to 0.22 μg/mL (Staphylococcus aureus), while MBC values ranged from 0.16 μg/mL (Dickeya solani and B. cereus) to 0.40 μg/mL (S. aureus). The inhibitory activities against growth of bacteria and fungi used is an indication that E. camaldulensis a might be useful resource for the development and formulation of antibacterial and antifungal drugs.

description: How often are comic book readers confronted with the phrase “Aren’t you too old to read comic books?” or with being called “geek” or “nerd” for liking them? Also, in academic circles, even though the numbers of academic studies on comic books has increased in recent years, it is not yet established and unified as a critical field, partially because of its multimodality, but also because of its conceptualization as being a lowbrow genre in the literary field.

description: In ecology, stable isotope labelling is commonly used for tracing material transfer in trophic interactions, nutrient budgets and biogeochemical processes. The main assumption in this approach is that the enrichment with a heavy isotope has no effect on the organism growth and metabolism. This assumption is, however, challenged by theoretical considerations and experimental studies on kinetic isotope effects in vivo. Here, I demonstrate profound changes in life histories of the rotifer Brachionus plicatilis fed 15N-enriched algae (0.4–5.0 at%); i.e. at the enrichment levels commonly used in ecological studies. These findings support theoretically predicted effects of heavy isotope enrichment on growth, metabolism and ageing in biological systems and underline the importance of accounting for such effects when using stable isotope labelling in experimental studies.

description: Cet article se focalisera sur les déterminants des niveaux des différents transferts financiers effectués par le gouvernement marocain au profit des provinces et des préfectures, sachant que la valeur de ces transferts constitue la part la plus importante dans les recettes dont disposent ces entités.

La théorie du fédéralisme budgétaire n’est pas abordée ici sous l’approche favorable à la compétition fiscale entre les entités décentralisée (Brennan et Buchanan, 1980) mais selon l’approche qui prône la redistribution et la correction des inégalités (Oates, 1972).

Il ne s’agit pas de défendre l’approche en elle-même.  Il s’agit de démontrer, après analyse des  données statistiques relatives aux transferts effectués, si le partage des ressources publiques à travers la décentralisation budgétaire débouche sur des considérations de redistribution purement socio-économiques, et dans quelle mesure celles-ci  sont conformes aux orientations normatives en la matière.

description: The Village Antique Mall, a 32,000 square foot antique mall in Amarillo, Texas, has experienced declining sales and customer traffic over the past few years. This case study identifies several factors contributing to the mall's struggles, including changing consumer preferences, the rise of e-commerce, economic difficulties in the region, and unfavorable location demographics. The problem statement summarizes that the mall faces declining sales and revenues that threaten its financial future, employees, and reputation. The literature review synthesizes research on disruptions in the antique business, including reduced interest in traditional antiques, the growth of online sales, evolving consumer preferences, and the importance of location. Proposed strategies to revitalize the mall include establishing an online presence, refreshing merchandise selections, implementing strategic marketing campaigns, considering relocation, and leveraging technologies like AI and machine learning. After analyzing alternatives, the case recommends focusing on expanding the mall's online visibility through an e-commerce website and social media. This can boost sales by reaching new customers, positively impact the mall's finances and employees, and elevate its reputation. A high-level implementation plan outlines key steps for executing this strategy. The case provides insights into challenges facing antique retailers and strategies for adapting business models to remain competitive amid market disruptions.

description: Based on the analysis of the mechanism of ligand transfer to membranes employing in vitro methods, Fatty Acid Binding Protein (FABP) family has been divided in two subgroups: collisional and diffusional FABPs. Although the collisional mechanism has been well characterized employing in vitro methods, the structural features responsible for the difference between collisional and diffusional mechanisms remain uncertain. In this work, we have identified the amino acids putatively responsible for the interaction with membranes of both, collisional and diffusional, subgroups of FABPs. Moreover, we show how specific changes in FABPs’ structure could change the mechanism of interaction with membranes. We have computed protein–membrane interaction energies for members of each subgroup of the family, and performed Molecular Dynamics simulations that have shown different configurations for the initial interaction between FABPs and membranes. In order to generalize our hypothesis, we extended the electrostatic and bioinformatics analysis over FABPs of different mammalian genus. Also, our methodological approach could be used for other systems involving protein–membrane interactions.

description: The main objective of this work was to synthesize the MCM-41 material from optimized protocols. In the second step, the pore size and the specific surface area of the parent material was increased by the incorporation of swelling agents (long chain carbon amines N-N, Dimethyl-dodecylamine « DMDDA ») in post-synthesis. Then the selective extraction of the amine and the calcination allowed us to obtain materials with pore sizes and even larger surfaces than those of the starting materials (parent materials). The adsorbents, identified as MCM-41 (P), DMDDA-41 (A), DMDDA-41 (B), DMDDA-41 (C) and MCM-41 (P/C), were characterized regarding their texture, mesoscopic ordering and chemical surface and finally their adsorption capacity was evaluated using two diffrent dyes (anionic: Orange II sodium and cationic: Janus Green B). The results obtained during the adsorption study show the efficiency of these materials, in particular the "amine and calcined" materials for decolorizing aqueous media contaminated with organic dyes. The kinetic studies and the adsorption isotherms were carried out to clarify the method of fixing each of the two dyes on the two materials tested. The experiments showed that the amine material had a maximum capacity for fixing Orange II (221.06 mg / g) (anionic dye), whereas for a maximum adsorption capacity (455.23 mg / g ) Of the Janus GB (cationic dye), the calcined material is more efficient.
