description: Chemical weathering of fluorine-bearing minerals is widely accepted as the main mechanism for the release of fluorine (F) to groundwater. Here, we propose a potential mechanism of F release via microbial dissolution of fluorapatite (Ca5(PO4)3F), which has been neglected previously. Batch culture experiments were conducted at 30°C with a phosphate-solubilizing bacteria strain, Pseudomonas fluorescens P35, and rock phosphates as the sole source of phosphate for microbial growth in parallel with abiotic controls. Rock phosphates consisted of 55–91% of fluorapatite and 5–10% of dolomite before microbial dissolution as indicated by X-ray diffraction (XRD). Mineral composition and morphology changed after microbial dissolution characterized by the disappearance of dolomite and the development of etched cavities on rock phosphate surfaces. The pH of media used was approximately 7.4 at the beginning and increased gradually to 7.7 in abiotic controls; with the inoculum, the pH decreased to acidic values of 3.7–3.8 after 27 h. Phosphate, calcium, and fluoride were released from the rock phosphate to the acidified medium. At 42 h, the concentration of F reached 8.1–10.3 mg L−1. The elevated F concentration was two times higher than the F levels in groundwater in regions diagnosed with fluorosis, and was toxic to the bacteria, as demonstrated by a precipitous decrease in live cells. Geochemical modeling demonstrated that the oxidation of glucose (the carbon source for microbial growth in the medium) to gluconic acid could decrease the pH to 3.7–3.8 and result in the dissolution of fluorapatite and dolomite. Dolomite and fluorapatite remained unsaturated, while concentrations of dissolved phosphorus (P), calcium (Ca), and F increased throughout the time course Fluorite reached saturation [saturation index (SI) 0.22–0.42] after 42 h in rock phosphate–amended biotic systems. However, fluorite was not detected in XRD patterns of the final residue from microcosms. Given that phosphate-solubilizing bacteria are ubiquitous in soil and groundwater ecosystems, they could play an important role in fluorapatite dissolution and the release of F to groundwater.

description: Chemical weathering of fluorine-bearing minerals is widely accepted as the main mechanism for the release of fluorine (F) to groundwater. Here we propose a potential mechanism of F release via microbial dissolution of fluoroapatite (Ca5(PO4)3F) which has been neglected previously. Batch culture experiments were conducted at 30°C with a phosphate-solubilizing bacteria strain, Pseudomonas fluorescens P35, and rock phosphates as the sole source of phosphate for microbial growth in parallel with abiotic controls. Rock phosphates consisted of 55 to 91% fluorapatite and 5 to 10% dolomite before microbial dissolution as indicated by X-ray diffraction (XRD). Mineral composition and morphology changed after microbial dissolution characterized by the disappearance of dolomite from the XRD spectrum and the development of etched cavities on rock phosphate surfaces. The original pH of media used was approximately 7.4 and increased gradually to 7.7 in abiotic controls; with the inoculum, the pH decreased to acidic values of 3.7 to 3.8 after 27 hours.

description: In the present study, three strains of Candida glabrata have been investigated to shed light on the mechanisms involved in azole resistance during adherence and biofilm formation. In particular, a clinical isolate, susceptible to azole-based drugs, DSY562 and two different resistant mutagenic strains deriving from DSY562, SFY114 and SFY115, have been analysed with different approaches for their cell wall composition and properties. A proteomic analysis revealed that the expression of six cell wall-related proteins and biofilm formation varied between the strains. The SFY114 and SFY115 strains resulted to be less hydrophobic than the susceptible parental counterpart DSY562, on the other hand they showed a higher amount in total cell wall polysaccharides fraction in the total cell wall. Accordingly to the results obtained from the hydrophobicity and adherence assays, in the resistant strain SFY115 the biofilm formation decreased compared to the parental strain DSY562. Finally, the total glucose amount in resistant SFY115 was about halved in comparison to other strains. Taken together all these data suggest that azole drugs may affect the cell wall composition of C. glabrata, in relation to the different pathogenic behaviours.

description: Excavations were undertaken by Oxford Archaeology East on the south bank of the River Cam at Brunswick, Cambridge, in advance of development. This provided a rare opportunity to study preserved prehistoric, Roman and medieval land surfaces, flood deposits and hillwash, beneath which were Early Neolithic pits. During the medieval period the land lay adjacent to Barnwell Priory, one of the wealthiest and most important religious establishments in East Anglia. Large quantities of imported soil were dumped here during the 13th to early 16th centuries, perhaps to facilitate farming or to improve access to the river. The dumped material contained a diverse assemblage of finds, including book fittings and iron-working waste.

Late Bronze Age and Iron Age activity on the Littleport Fen Edge
Creators: name: Woolhouse, Thomas
Publisher: name: Archaeology Data Service
Year: 2015

description: Proceedings of the Cambridge Antiquarian Society, 101, 23-30
description: Between June 2005 and February 2008, Archaeological Solutions carried out two stages of archaeological investigation on land adjoining 80 Wisbech Road, Littleport, Cambridgeshire, in advance of development. The site encompassed part of the former fen edge on the north side of Littleport 'island'. The investigations revealed three phases of activity, focused on the higher, drier, southern part of the site. Scattered struck flint indicated sporadic activity during the early Neolithic (Phase 1). In the late Bronze Age/early Iron Age (Phase 2) numerous shallow pits, some containing pottery and occasional daub fragments, suggest the site lay within paddocks on the periphery of a settlement further to the south. Remains of two ditches, the larger of which ran down into the fen, suggest that similar agricultural land use continued into the late Iron Age (Phase 3). Part of a ?curated Mesolithic/Neolithic quartzite pebble hammer was found in the upper fill of the larger ditch, close to its terminus. This might represent a deliberately placed votive deposit. Column samples contained well-preserved pollen evidence for later prehistoric environmental change and agriculture in this part of Littleport.

description: Objectives: Termination of pregnancy (TOP) is one of the most performed interventions in women worldwide: approximately one in three women will have at least one TOP in their reproductive life. Intrauterine adhesions (IUAs) have been reported as a possible complication after TOP, but their prevalence has not been established, as women are not routinely evaluated. IUAs are associated with menstrual disturbances, infertility and obstetric complications. Methods: We searched Ovid MEDLINE, Ovid EMBASE and CENTRAL from inception until November 2015 for studies evaluating women following TOP. We selected studies in which women were evaluated consecutively, independently of symptoms, by hysteroscopy or hysterosalpingography (HSG), for the presence of IUAs. Results: After an extensive review of the literature, no studies were found that evaluated women after medical TOP and no randomised trials following surgical TOP. Only two prospective cohort studies were identified. In the first, IUAs were detected in 21.2% of women evaluated by hysteroscopy following first trimester surgical TOP; adhesions were moderate to severe in 48%. In the second, IUAs were detected in 16.2% of women evaluated by HSG after second trimester TOP by intra-amniotic prostaglandin induction followed by D&C; a pathologically wide internal cervical os was observed in 12%. Conclusions: This systematic review suggests a link between TOP and adhesion formation, but, according to the scientific literature and despite new diagnostic facilities, the relationship between the methods of TOP and IUA formation remains unclear. Nevertheless, the reported frequency is in accordance with that found in women following D&C for miscarriage. Further research is required.

description: War Ditches is a large enclosure situated on a spur of the Gog Magog hills to the south of Cambridge. Much of this originally circular monument was destroyed by chalk quarrying in the late 19th to mid-20th centuries, during which time a series of excavations were conducted. Emergency archaeological work in 2009 was necessitated by groundworks relating to the opening of the site to the public as a nature reserve, and followed the accidental discovery in 2008 of a human burial along with animal bones and Romano-British pottery high up in the south-eastern corner of the quarry. Excavation of a single large slot through the surviving ditch was supplemented by test pits and auger surveys. Relatively large and well-stratified finds and environmental assemblages were found which, allied with radiocarbon dating, have enabled the first accurate dating of the ditch infill sequence. It is now clear that the monument was constructed at the end of the 5th or beginning of the 4th century BC, only to be destroyed before completion or shortly after. The site was then abandoned until reoccupation in the middle of the 1st century BC.

Subjects: Food Security and Poverty

description: Global agriculture is facing many dynamic trends and emerging issues that present both challenges and incredible opportunities for evolution and growth. Key issues such as food security, consumer influence, biosecurity, labour shortage, water utilisation, climate change, deforestation, people talent, sustainability, trust in science/business/technology and smooth trade flow make just a short list of major drivers that require consideration, proactive investment, and decisive action now from many stakeholders to ensure industry success in the long term. The urgency and importance of these trends are different by country, and many trends and issues connect and converge. Developed countries, like Australia, can play a pivotal role in evolving quickly with these trends and leveraging our experience and learnings appropriately to developing nations. I will focus on three key areas and share how the private sector is viewing these in both Australia and developing nations, share examples of how these are being addressed in various countries, and offer suggestions for management of these issues in the future. I will share examples of private–public collaboration that can help address these trends, and touch on the important responsibility of the private sector in embracing Corporate Social Responsibility. Smooth trade flow of agricultural produce is essential to the development of all nations and in meeting global food security challenges. Influences on trade flow are diverse, including political drivers, industry direction, regulatory structures, and food chain stakeholders. Collaboration and transparency between key stakeholders are essential in managing future emerging trends that will impact trade flow. Biosecurity issues continue to impact agricultural production. Recent examples, such as fall armyworm across Asia and the industry response to this, serve as a good case study to assess the importance of multi-stakeholder cross-country collaboration for rapid response to these issues. Technology investment, development and acceptance are essential in agriculture to address current issues and capture future opportunities from within the sector. Technology partnerships with a clear alignment of objectives and a transparent regulatory framework are essential to attract required investment.
Above the Fen Edge: Late Bronze Age to Early Iron Age Activity on land off Broadlands, Peterborough

description: Proceedings of the Cambridge Antiquarian Society, 101, 61-80
description: Excavations between 1998 and 2006 revealed significant prehistoric activity at a site off Broadlands, Peterborough, to the north of the well-known Fengate sites. The main period of activity at this site was in the late Bronze Age to early Iron Age and seems to have been primarily agricultural (pastoral) in nature, with features including a stockyard and two water-holes, one containing two preserved log ladders. These features provide evidence of how pastoral activity shifted onto higher ground when the fen edge features of the Fengate area became inundated. A single crouched burial, dating to the early Iron Age and marked by a wooden post, was present. Its location may have been influenced by the presence of a Beaker barrow c. 100m to its north-north-east, and/or by its position between the contemporary agricultural features and the edge of the fen. A middle Bronze Age field system and small-scale late Iron Age to early Romano-British activity were also recorded but are not presented in this article.

Coronary angiographies were performed for all included subjects and significant coronary artery stenosis was considered as ≥ 50% stenosis by atherosclerotic plaque. Twenty-four-hour ambulatory BP monitoring was performed. Major advanced cardiovascular events (MACE) included revascularization, cardiovascular mortality, total mortality, acute coronary syndromes and stroke. BP analysis revealed higher night-time systolic blood pressure (SBP) values in patients with three or more significant coronary artery stenoses than in those without significant stenosis (120.7 ± 16.4 vs 116.7 ± 14.3 mmHg, p p p

description: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a rapidly fatal neurodegenerative disease of unknown etiology. We investigated the association between ALS diagnosis and prior cardiovascular disease (CVD), and CVD-specific, hospital admissions in the Danish population. We conducted a population based nested case-control study, including 3182 Danish residents diagnosed with ALS at age ≥20 years (1982–2009) and 100 randomly selected controls for each case, matched on age, gender and vital status. We estimated odds ratios (OR) associated with CVD, and CVD-specific hospital admissions, adjusting for socioeconomic and marital status, region of residence and past diabetes and obesity diagnoses. The estimated adjusted OR for any CVD admission at least three years prior to the date of ALS diagnosis was 1.15 (95% CI 1.04–1.27). Our results varied across cause-specific admissions; for atherosclerosis the OR was 1.36 (95% CI 1.02–1.80) and for ischemic heart disease 1.14 (95% CI 0.99–1.31), while we observed no association with hypertensive and cerebrovascular diseases. Adjusting for or stratifying by COPD status, a cigarette-smoking correlate, did not change our results. In conclusion, in our population based study we found evidence for a moderately elevated association with CVD that was stronger for specific conditions, such as atherosclerosis. Our findings may have important implications for ALS pathogenesis.

description: Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine has had a profound impact on EU policies and politics. The European Union and its member states have steadfastly supported Ukraine in its defensive efforts while simultaneously aiming to curb Russia’s aggression. This support has been manifested through unprecedented financial and economic sanctions imposed on Russia and its principal actors, as well as the provision of weapons and financial assistance to Ukraine. EU member states have also opened their doors to Ukrainian refugees, and Ukraine, once a distant neighbour, is now actively pursuing accession to become a full EU member.

Driven by pivotal events, this strategic shift and accelerated decision-making have gained widespread public support. However, in recent months, we have observed an emerging decline in this support as the war enters its third year and other crises become apparent – developments that are redirecting public attention and sensitivities.

The timing of these shifts is of particular significance, as they coincide with the crucial re-election of European leadership in 2024. As EU citizens prepare to cast their votes for a new European Parliament in June, closely followed by the nomination of a new European Commission, this publication seeks to provide a deeper understanding of how policies on Ukraine intersect with political orientations and party preferences.

In this country report "Belgium, the War and the Vote", we explore the relationship between political party preferences in Belgium and seven key Ukraine-related policy questions:

Does the European Union need a common defence policy?
Should the EU support Ukraine by delivering weapons?
Should your country accept refugees from Ukraine?
Should the EU accept Ukraine as a member state in the coming years?
Should the EU become more energy independent of Russia even if that means prices are rising even further?
Do you think economic and financial sanctions on Russia are effective or ineffective?
Do you think the reconstruction of Ukraine will be an economic opportunity or an economic burden?

description: Glutathionylcobalamin (GSCbl) is a vitamin B12 derivative that contains glutathione as the upper axial ligand to cobalt via a Co–S bond. In the present study, we discovered that cyanide reacted with GSCbl, generating cyanocobalamin (CNCbl) and reduced glutathione (GSH) via dicyanocobalamin (diCNCbl) intermediate. This reaction was induced specifically by the nucleophilic attack of cyanide anion displacing the glutathione ligand of GSCbl. Based on the reaction of GSCbl with cyanide, we developed new methods for the detection of cyanide. The reaction intermediate, violet-coloured diCNCbl, could be applied for naked eye detection of cyanide and the detection limit was estimated to be as low as 520 μg L−1 (20 μM) at pH = 10.0. The reaction product, CNCbl, could be applied for a spectrophotometric quantitative determination of cyanide with a detection limit of 26 μg L−1 (1.0 μM) at pH = 9.0 and a linear range of 26–520 μg L−1 (1.0–50 μM). In addition, the other reaction product, GSH, could be applied for a fluorometric quantitative determination of cyanide with a detection limit of 31 μg L−1 (1.2 μM) at pH = 9.0 and a linear range of 31–520 μg L−1 (1.2–20 μM). These new GSCbl-based methods are simple, highly specific and sensitive with great applicability for the detection of cyanide in biological and non-biological samples.

description: Objective: Long-term treatment with inhaled antibiotics is recommended for chronic Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa) infection in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. The ETOILES study (Clinicaltrials.gov identifier: NCT01519661) evaluated the safety of tobramycin inhalation powder (TIP) for 1 year. Research design and methods: This single-arm, open-label, multicenter, phase IV trial, enrolled CF patients aged ≥6 years, with baseline FEV1 ≥25%–≤75% predicted and Pa infection, and assessed the safety of TIP over six cycles in terms of the incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (AEs) and serious AEs (SAEs). Secondary endpoints included presence of airway reactivity, relative change in FEV1% predicted, and change in sputum Pa density (log10 colony forming units/g sputum). Results: A total of 157 patients were enrolled, and 96 patients (61.1%) completed the study. The most commonly reported AE was infective pulmonary exacerbation of CF (55.4%). Cough was reported as an AE in 23.6% of patients; a majority were mild or moderate and two were severe (1.3%). SAEs were reported by 31.2% of patients. No deaths were reported during the study. There were no clinically meaningful changes reported in airway reactivity. Most frequently reported post-inhalation event was cough at all time points; however, it was of short duration (<4 minutes) and decreased over the course of the study, possibly due to patients becoming more experienced with the administration of TIP. The post-inhalation events resolved without intervention in most cases. FEV1% predicted remained stable from Cycles 1 to 4 and tended to decrease thereafter, although it was not statistically significant (change from baseline to study end mean [SD] = −1.9% [14.55]; P = 0.199). Conclusions: This was one of the largest studies with long-term TIP exposure. The majority of patients enrolled were adults with more advanced CF lung disease than those in previous TIP studies. No new emerging safety signals were seen and efficacy was sustained during the year.

description: Objective: Long-term treatment with inhaled antibiotics is recommended for chronic Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa) infection in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. The ETOILES study (Clinicaltrials.gov Identifier: NCT01519661) evaluated the safety of Tobramycin inhalation powder (TIP) for 1 year.

description: Widely accepted major criteria for biodiversity hotspots that deserve conservation include species richness, endemism and threat. Proving that a taxon is endemic to a given area is more difficult, and therefore expensive, with animals than with plants because of the difficulty to prove absence outside the known distribution. Seeking a cost-efficient practical method to show animal endemism while funds necessary for conventional demonstration of endemism are lacking, we argued that when the known distribution of a suspected endemic taxon coincides with an eco-geographically isolated area, e.g. island, its exclusivity to that area is more credible. We selected a model site containing suspected endemics, the ‘Arava depression (altitude - 400–0 m) between arid southern Israel and southern Jordan. A search of the literature and collections found at least 23 animal taxa endemic to the ‘Arava, to the adjacent Dead Sea basin sharing the depression, or to both. We assessed the level of isolation of the ‘Arava depression by statistically analysing the geographical distribution of taxa (species or subspecies) of one selected well researched model group, Squamata (lizards and snakes). In northern Israel and Jordan the squamate faunas of the two countries are very similar. In contrast in the south where the ‘Arava intervenes, the two faunas greatly differ. The ‘Arava both constitutes a partial barrier and is partly isolated. Hence its apparent endemics are likely real endemics, inviting conservation of the area. The more so since the ‘Arava is also an arena of much research and education. Our methodology may serve worldwide to identify semi-isolated terrestrial areas for conservation.

A Landscape Corridor: A14 Improvements Investigations
Creators: name: Evans, Christopher

Publisher: name: Archaeology Data Service

description: Proceedings of the Cambridge Antiquarian Society, 101, 81-104
description: This paper presents the results of the first-phase archaeological evaluation fieldwork implemented for the A14 Ellington to Fen Ditton project, undertaken by the Cambridge Archaeological Unit in 2009-10. This very large-scale exercise involved more than 20km of trenching wherein almost 720 features were recorded and 11,425 artefacts recovered. The paper principally serves to 'signpost' the project's rich archives, although the findings at 23 individual sites are summarised. This is followed by a discussion focusing on settlement and landscape variation along the route. Along the north-western length, all periods from the Mesolithic/Neolithic to Saxon times were represented. By contrast, the project's southern clayland sites were all essentially of Iron Age and/or Romano-British date. LD
Addenbrooke's Hospital Excavations, 2007 & 2010: The Last of the Cra'ster's Enclosure

description: In 1967 a team led by Mary Cra'ster undertook the rescue excavation of an Iron Age enclosure discovered during the construction of Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge. Following the Cambridge Archaeological Unit's large-scale excavations at the Hutchison Site along the western side of the hospital grounds in 2002-03, subsequent development afforded an opportunity to further investigate Cra'ster's enclosure. This article gives a brief appraisal of Cra'ster's findings before describing the results of the 2007 and 2010 excavations. As the area was known to be truncated and any minor settlement features were unlikely to survive, the main aim of the recent programme was to achieve substantive finds and environmental assemblages from the enclosure to provide greater context for the earlier fieldwork. Aside from a possible pit and plough furrows, the main enclosure ditch was the only significant feature present. The pottery assemblage indicated a Middle/later Iron Age date, and suggested that the site should be ranked as a fairly typical domestic compound of the period. LD

description: Two new lignan glycosides, ussuriensislignan A (1) and ussuriensislignan B (2), together with seventeen known compounds (3–19), were isolated from the fruits of Pyrus ussuriensis. Their structures were determined by various spectroscopic methods. This is the first report of the isolation of lignans (compounds 1–3) from the genus Pyrus, and compounds 3–6, 12–16 were reported from Pyrus for the first time.
An Iron Age and Roman Settlement at Summersfield, Papworth Everard
Creators: name: Patten, Ricky
Publisher: name: Archaeology Data Service
Year: 2015

description: Proceedings of the Cambridge Antiquarian Society, 101, 115-142
description: This paper details the excavation of a small rural settlement situated on a clay ridge at Summersfield, Papworth Everard. The ridgeline was first settled during the Iron Age, with the construction of five roundhouses and three enclosures. During the Late Iron Age/early Roman period the settlement developed further with a series of enclosures representing different forms of activity, including habitation, horticulture, crop processing, and the management of livestock. A single burial, that of an adult male buried with a 'sprinkling' of pottery, was encountered during the excavation. Possibly representing two distinct farmsteads, the settlement remains lay either side of a partially metalled routeway. Although this may have branched off the presumed route of Ermine Street, it is possible that this is the Roman road itself. There was a hiatus in activity from the end of the Roman period until the 10th century AD, when settlement to the north of the excavation area, centred on the church of St Peter, encroached into Summersfield. Five separate enclosures and the remains of two structures located on the edge of the settlement were revealed. Discussion focuses on the Iron Age and Roman phases, revealing the character of the later prehistoric and Romano-British settlement on the claylands; this further supports evidence from other recent excavations that have indicated that settlement was not confined to the river terraces.
