description: A series of polar silicones was synthesized in order to compare their dielectric properties. Different substituents with high dipole moment (epoxy, pyridyl, aldehyde, cyano-, nitroazobenzene) were attached by hydrosilylation to a poly(dimethyl-methylhydro)siloxane. Thiol-ene addition on a dimethyl-methylvinyl siloxane copolymer with similar composition was also used for chemical modifications with chloro- or carboxy- derivatives. This approach allowed comparison of properties with emphasis on dielectric behavior measured in liquid state, as a preliminary step in design and preparation of materials suitable for dielectric elastomers. Although a relatively low content of polar groups was used (8%), permittivity values of 5.4 and even 7.4 were achieved (at 10 kHz), either due to the large dipole moment or to the presence of important amounts of moisture. The water sorption capacity of the polar silicones was investigated by dynamic vapor sorption, while structural parameters of model molecules were calculated, in order to correlate the dielectric properties with the polarity/hydrophilicity of the substituents to the silicone chain. A combined effect of the calculated dipole moment, molar polarizability, molar volume, and the measured water sorption capacity on dielectric permittivity was observed.

description: A series of oxime esters was synthesized by esterification of 3-ethoxy-4-benzaldehyde oxime with acid chlorides in the presence of triethylamine. They were evaluated for their in vitro antifungal activity against three pathogenic fungi, namely Rhizoctonia bataticola, Fusarium udum, and Alternaria porii, and their antibacterial activity against the three bacterial strains Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Klebsiella pneumoneae. The compounds bearing medium-length alkyl chains showed greater activity than those with long alkyl chains. An electron-donating group in para position of the aryl ring confers highest activity.

These are coordinates with respect to which every linear function has zero symmetrized second order horizontal derivatives. All Carnot groups of rank two are in this category, as well as the Engel group, the Goursat type groups, and those general Carnot groups of step three for which the non-zero commutators of order three are linearly independent.

description: A new Permian temnospondyl from South America is described and considered to represent a new species – Konzhukovia sangabrielensis sp. nov. – of the genus Konzhukovia previously recorded exclusively from Russia. It consists of the anterior half and partial right side of the skull roof and palate. A comprehensive phylogenetic analysis was performed with several archegosauroids and other well-supported groups of temnospondyls in order to access the affinities of the new Brazilian species and test the monophyly of Archegosauroidea. Archegosauroidea was not recovered as a monophyletic group, comprising successive paraphyletic taxa. The only monophyletic group of ‘archegosauroids’ is the ‘Tryphosuchinae’ (in a sister-group relationship with Stereospondyli), composed of Tryphosuchus paucidens, Konzhukovia vetusta, K. tarda and K. sangabrielensis. As the diagnosis of T. paucidens is unclear and based on incomplete material, nested among three species of Konzhukovia, we consider this taxon to be a nomen dubium and purge it from the strict consensus tree. An alternative solution would be to erect a new taxonomic combination for T. paucidens. In order to solve these taxonomic problems, it is necessary to discover more complete material with a clear set of diagnostic characters, to either revalidate this taxon or provide a new combination for it. The phylogenetic results support the erection of a new family – Konzhukoviidae – to replace ‘Tryphosuchinae’ and accommodate Konzhukovia vetusta, K. tarda and K. sangabrielensis, the new Brazilian species basal to the Russian forms. An early diverging konzhukoviid in Gondwana leads to interesting insights regarding the evolution of the new family, stereospondyl origins, their early diversification and their palaeobiogeographical patterns of distribution. http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:4772DC7E-C427-4F5F-89FD-9E68E3B0BFD5

description: Objectives: This study compared the cytotoxicity of a new octenidine mouth rinse (MR) against gingival fibroblasts and epithelial cells with different established MRs. Methods: The following MRs were used: Octenidol (OCT), Chlorhexidine 0.2% (CHX), Listerine (LIS), Meridol (MER), Betaisodona (BET); and control (medium only). Human primary gingiva fibroblasts and human primary nasal epithelial cells were cultivated in cell-specific media (2 × 105 cells/ml) and treated with MR for 1, 5, and 15 min. Each test was performed 12 times. Metabolism activity was measured using a cytotoxicity assay. A cellometer analyzed cell viability, cell number, and cell diameter. The data were analyzed by two-way analysis of variance with subsequent Dunnett’s test and additional t-tests. Results: The cytotoxic effects of all MRs on fibroblasts and epithelial cells compared to the control depended on the contact time (p p > 0.005). Cell numbers of both cell types at all contact times revealed that OCT showed a less negative effect (p > 0.005), especially for epithelial cells compared to CHX after 15 min (p p > 0.005), but MER showed less influence than OCT in epithelial cells (p Conclusions: OCT is a potential alternative to CHX regarding cytotoxicity because of its lower cell-toxic effect against fibroblasts and epithelial cells.

description: In this paper, we present the results of a detailed geomorphological and sedimentological study of a coastal sector of southern Italy, the Pineta della foce del Garigliano SCI (i.e. Site of Community Importance), which is largely affected by shoreline retreat and the degradation of dune habitat. The analysis of shoreline evolution demonstrates that severe erosion processes have occurred over the last 50 years. They caused the complete dismantling of the foredune, whereas the anomalous and advanced position of the secondary dune promoted a progressive loss of vegetation habitat of high environmental value such as juniper (Juniperus oxycedrus ssp. macrocarpa). Morpho-sedimentary data and hydrodynamic models suggest that the main climate events promoted a net longshore transport toward the South. Our analyses confirm that erosion processes are linked to natural factors but several negative human practices have contributed to the acceleration of shoreline retreat and degradation of the dune habitat. In addition to its scientific value, the map and data here presented represent an important tool for beach management purposes.

description: The European chemical legislation requires manufacturers and importers of chemicals to do consumer exposure assessment when the chemical has certain hazards associated to it (e.g. explosive, carcinogenicity, and hazardous to the aquatic environment), but the question is how this obligation can be met in light of the scientific uncertainty and technical challenges related to exposure assessment of nanomaterials. In this paper, we investigate to what extent the information and data in the literature can be used to perform consumer exposure assessment according to the REACH requirements and we identify and discuss the key data needs and provide recommendations for consumer exposure assessment of nanomaterials. In total, we identified 76 studies of relevance. Most studies have analyzed the release of Ag and TiO2 from textiles and paints, and CNT and SiO2 from nanocomposites. Less than half of the studies report their findings in a format that can be used for exposure assessment under REACH, and most do not include characterization of the released particles. Although inhalation, dermal, and oral exposures can be derived using the guidelines on how to complete consumer exposure assessments under REACH, it is clear that the equations are not developed to take the unique properties of nanomaterials into consideration. Future research is therefore needed on developing more generalized methods for representing nanomaterial release from different product groups at relevant environmental conditions. This includes improving the analytical methods for determining nanomaterial alteration and transformation, as well as quantification, which could subsequently lead to more nano-specific consumer exposure assessment models.

description: Manufacturing can play a key role in sustained economic growth, job creation, and poverty reduction in Africa. Agricultural machinery manufacturing can contribute to driving overall manufacturing, given the increasing demand for mechanization from Africa’s 85 million farms and the rapidly growing agro-food processing sector. But while agricultural mechanization creates large opportunities for manufacturing, harnessing this potential in today’sglobalized world requires African manufacturers to compete with (low-cost) imports from today’s manufacturing powerhouses such as India and China. This policy brief presents insights from a study on the characteristics, opportunities, and challenges for local agricultural machinery manufacturers in four African countries, Benin, Kenya, Mali, and Nigeria. The policy brief is based on a survey among ca. 400 randomly chosen manufacturers which assessed business characteristics and opportunities and challenges. The survey was supplemented with qualitative methods (participatory mapping, key-informant interviews) to examine key factors and actors affecting the enabling business environment of local manufacturing – and to derive policy recommendations on how to make local agricultural machinery manufacturing thrive.

description: Geomorphological mapping is a powerful instrument improving the geomorphological interpretation and understanding of the processes and forms used in landscape studies, with the ability of organizing different thematic layers in the same map. The presented map provide relevant information about the different geomorphological units of the central Algarve (i.e. the Carboniferous flysch mountains; the Barrocal, with marly and karstified subunits), where a karst system is prominent. Solution karst morphologies and large dry areas are common in the elevated areas of the Barrocal, suggesting deep circulation of groundwater. These recharge areas feed the perched aquifers of the area, where discharge is controlled by the impervious lithologies (clay-rich strata of the turbidites, marls and argilites) in the valley bottoms or other leaks in dammed aquifers. In springs related to the main aquifers tufa are actively being formed and, close coupled to spring location, different tufa depositional systems develop.

description: Studies examining decontextualized associative vocabulary learning have shown that long spacing between encounters with an item facilitates learning more than short or no spacing, a phenomenon known as distributed practice effect. However, the effect of spacing on learning words in context is less researched and the results, so far, are inconsistent. In this study, we compared the effect of massed and spaced distributions on second language vocabulary learning from reading. Japanese speakers of English encountered 48 novel vocabulary items embedded in informative English sentences, inferred their meanings from contexts, and received feedback in the form of English synonyms and Japanese translation equivalents. To test the hypothesis that the effects of spacing might differentially affect the development of explicit or tacit word knowledge, spacing effects were measured using semantic priming as well as a meaning recall and a meaning–form matching posttest. Results showed an advantage of spaced over massed learning on the meaning recall and meaning–form matching posttests. However, a similar semantic priming effect was observed irrespective of whether an item was encountered in the massed or spaced distribution. These results suggest that the spacing effect holds in contextual word learning for the development of explicit vocabulary knowledge, but massing appears to be as effective as spacing for the acquisition of tacit semantic knowledge.

description: This paper defines a collection of rhythmic building blocks produced by generative operations that fuse metrical anticipation and parallelism. It connects aspects of musical expectation with Arthur Komar's constraints on the generation of rhythmic derivations. A correspondence between those constraints and the divisibility of binomial coefficients is used to map derived rhythmic elaborations and syncopations separately onto Pascal's triangle and jointly onto the Sierpinski gasket. This mapping provides concise means to directly enumerate and compare rhythmic configurations. An Online Supplement provides musical examples and discusses potential applications.

description: O ensino de Ciência, Tecnologia e Sociedade (CTS) emerge como uma possibilidade de superar a forma fragmentada e descontextualizada com que os conteúdos de Química são trabalhados no Ensino Médio, uma vez que busca ampliar a compreensão desses conteúdos, para além de uma educação propedêutica. Desse modo, a pesquisa bibliográfica é essencial para aqueles que desejam um embasamento teórico essencial à realização da prática de ensino adequada na perspectiva CTS. Nesse contexto, este trabalho visa contribuir para o mapeamento do estado da arte das pesquisas e publicações realizadas no Brasil em ensino de Química, no âmbito do ensino CTS, a partir da ferramenta de redes sociais. Para isso, foi construída uma rede a partir de 612 referências bibliográficas contidas em 41 artigos, sobre ensino de Química no CTS, encontrados em 31 revistas brasileiras de Ensino e Educação, indexadas em Qualis A1, A2 e B1, que constam no banco de dados do Grupo CTS e Educação do CEFET/RJ, publicados de 1996 a 2016. Como resultado deste mapeamento, elencamos as oito obras que estabelecem maior comunicação entre si, sendo consideradas relevantes no contexto estudado, além de apresentarmos as suas principais ideias, de modo a contribuir para aqueles que desejam se apropriar dos pressupostos da abordagem CTS aplicada ao ensino de Química.

description: In this paper we study the optimal control of a parabolic initial-boundary value problem of viscous Cahn--Hilliard type with zero Neumann boundary conditions. Phase field systems of this type govern the evolution of diffusive phase transition processes with conserved order parameter. It is assumed that the nonlinear function driving the physical processes within the spatial domain are double-well potentials of logarithmic type whose derivatives become singular at the boundary of their respective domains of definition. For such systems, optimal control problems have been studied in the past. We focus here on the situation when the cost functional of the optimal control problem contains a nondifferentiable term like the $L^1$-norm, which leads to sparsity of optimal controls. For such cases, we establish first-order necessary and second-order sufficient optimality conditions for locally optimal controls. In the approach to second-order sufficient conditions, the main novelty of this paper, we adapt a technique introduced by E. Casas, C. Ryll and F. Tröltzsch in the paper [em SIAM J. Control Optim. bf 53 (2015), 2168--2202]. In this paper, we show that this method can also be successfully applied to systems of viscous Cahn--Hilliard type with logarithmic nonlinearity. Since the Cahn--Hilliard system corresponds to a fourth-order partial differential equation in contrast to the second-order systems investigated before, additional technical difficulties have to be overcome.

description: Tima (ISO 639-3: tms) is a Niger-Congo language spoken by roughly 7,000 people in the Nuba mountains of Sudan, in north-eastern Africa, as well as in smaller communities in the bigger towns of Sudan such as Khartoum and Port Sudan. It is part of the Katla language group which includes the languages Katla and Julut as well as Tima, with Tima being the most distinct of the three. All three languages are regarded as endangered, mainly due to the spreading influence of Arabic in recent decades, but also due to greater speaker mobility. Broadly speaking, there is a decline in speaker fluency from older to younger speakers of Tima. The Tima people are not only exposed to Arabic as the lingua franca and official language of Sudan, but also to English and Kiswahili. These latter languages were introduced into the school system during the extremely difficult circumstances of the second civil war (1983–2005), when teachers from Kenya came to the Tima region (in addition, many Tima people went to Kenya for further education).

description: Objective: This study compared the cost-effectiveness of direct-acting antiviral therapies currently recommended for treating genotypes (GT) 1 and 4 chronic hepatitis C (CHC) patients in the US. Methods: A cost-effectiveness analysis of treatments for CHC from a US payer’s perspective over a lifelong time horizon was performed. A Markov model based on the natural history of CHC was used for a population that included treatment-naïve and -experienced patients. Treatment alternatives considered for GT1 included ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir + dasabuvir ± ribavirin (3D ± R), sofosbuvir + ledipasvir (SOF/LDV), sofosbuvir + simeprevir (SOF + SMV), simeprevir + pegylated interferon/ribavirin (SMV + PR) and no treatment (NT). For GT4 treatments, ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir + ribavirin (2D + R), SOF/LDV and NT were compared. Transition probabilities, utilities and costs were obtained from published literature. Outcomes included rates of compensated cirrhosis (CC), decompensated cirrhosis (DCC), hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and liver-related death (LrD), total costs, life-years and quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs). Costs and QALYs were used to calculate incremental cost-effectiveness ratios. Results: In GT1 patients, 3D ± R and SOF-containing regimens have similar long-term outcomes; 3D ± R had the lowest lifetime risks of all liver disease outcomes: CC = 30.2%, DCC = 5.0 %, HCC = 6.8%, LT = 1.9% and LrD = 9.2%. In GT1 patients, 3D ± R had the lowest cost and the highest QALYs. As a result, 3D ± R dominated these treatment options. In GT4 patients, 2D + R had lower rates of liver morbidity and mortality, lower cost and more QALYs than SOF/LDV and NT. Limitations: While the results are based on input values, which were obtained from a variety of heterogeneous sources—including clinical trials, the findings were robust across a plausible range of input values, as demonstrated in probabilistic sensitivity analyses. Conclusions: Among currently recommended treatments for GT1 and GT4 in the US, 3D ± R (for GT1) and 2D + R (for GT4) have a favorable cost-effectiveness profile.

description: Fentanyl is a powerful opiate analgesic typically used for the treatment of severe and chronic pain, but its prescription is strongly limited by the well-documented side-effects. Different approaches have been applied to develop strong analgesic drugs with reduced pharmacologic side-effects. One of the most promising is the design of multitarget drugs. In this paper we report the synthesis, characterization and biological evaluation of twelve new 4-anilidopiperidine (fentanyl analogues). In vivo hot-Plate test, shows a moderate antinociceptive activity for compounds OMDM585 and OMDM586, despite the weak binding affinity on both μ and δ-opioid receptors. A strong inverse agonist activity in the GTP-binding assay was revealed suggesting the involvement of alternative systems in the brain. Fatty acid amide hydrolase inhibition was evaluated, together with binding assays of cannabinoid receptors. We can conclude that compounds OMDM585 and 586 are capable to elicit antinociception due to their multitarget activity on different systems involved in pain modulation.

description: Objective: This study compared the cost-effectiveness of direct-acting antiviral therapies currently recommended for treating genotypes (GT) 1 and 4 chronic hepatitis C (CHC) patients in the United States (US). Methods: A cost-effectiveness analysis of treatments for CHC from a US payer’s perspective over a lifelong time horizon was performed. A Markov model based on the natural history of CHC was used for a population that included treatment-naïve and -experienced patients. Treatment alternatives considered for GT1 included ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir + dasabuvir ± ribavirin (3D±R), sofosbuvir + ledipasvir (SOF/LDV), sofosbuvir + simeprevir (SOF+SMV), simeprevir + pegylated interferon/ribavirin (SMV+PR), and no treatment (NT). For GT4 treatments were ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir + ribavirin (2D+R), SOF/LDV, and NT were compared. Transition probabilities, utilities, and costs were obtained from published literature. Outcomes included rates of compensated cirrhosis (CC), decompensated cirrhosis (DCC), hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and liver-related death (LrD), total costs, life-years, quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs). Costs and QALYs were used to calculate incremental cost-effectiveness ratios. Results: In GT1 patients, 3D±R and SOF-containing regimens have similar long term outcomes; 3D±R had the lowest lifetime risks of all liver disease outcomes: CC 30.2%, DCC 5.0%, HCC 6.8%, LT 1.9% and LrD 9.2%. In GT1 patients, 3D±R had the lowest cost and the highest QALYs. As a result, 3D±R dominated these treatment options. In GT4 patients, 2D+R had lower rates of liver morbidity and mortality, lower cost, and more QALYs than SOF/LDV and NT. Limitations: While the results are based on input values, which were obtained from a variety of heterogeneous sources - including clinical trials, the findings were robust across a plausible range of input values as demonstrated in probabilistic sensitivity analyses. Conclusions: Among currently recommended treatments for GT1 and GT4 in the US, 3D±R (for GT1) and 2D+R (for GT4) have a favorable cost-effectiveness profile.

description: Two conformationally constrained compounds similar to chicoric acid but lacking the catechol and carboxyl groups were prepared. In these analogues, the single bond between the two caffeoyl fragments has been replaced with a chiral oxirane ring and both aromatic residues modified protecting completely or partially the catechol moiety as methyl ether. Preliminary molecular modelling studies carried out on the two analogues showed interactions near the active site of HIV integrase; however, in comparison with raltegravir, the biological evaluation confirmed that CAA-1 and CAA-2 were unable to inhibit infection at lower concentration.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: The use of online dating applications (apps) among men who have sex with men (MSM) has become a common occurrence in today’s digital age. One example is Grindr, the first location-based dating app of its kind, which was launched in 2009. This marked a new phase of online dating, currently facilitating connections for gay, bi, and curious men in almost every country in the world based on attraction and physical proximity. Grindr celebrated its 10th anniversary this year, yet little is known about users’ motivations and usage patterns, or its potential impact on users’ mental health in the United Kingdom (UK). The aim of the present research was to investigate whether problematic Grindr use existed, and if so, to explore the relationships between problematic Grindr use and psychosocial well-being based on Griffiths’ (2005) six-component model of behavioural addiction. Grindr users (N = 832; M age = 34 years) anonymously self-completed questionnaires via an online survey, which was, advertised on Grindr, social networking sites (Facebook & Twitter), and specific LGBT forums. The results from the cross-sectional study highlight that those experiencing problematic Grindr use differ significantly from those who do not, and this was evident across all study variables. The participants reported lower psychological well-being, greater psychological distress, increased minority stress and neglect of social life as compared to those for whom usage was non-problematic. The most common reason for using Grindr was for sexual experience, followed by the desire to connect with other people with the same sexual orientation to pass time or for entertainment purposes. Problematic Grindr use was also strongly related to using the app for sexual encounters. The study discusses implications for practice and policy, as well as for Grindr’s operators.

description: This project focused on Sheffield and Manchester, which both have thriving open data and food growing communities. The comparative approach builds on work by Taylor et al (1996) who examined global change(s), local feeling and everyday life in these two cities. Keeping in mind the different aspects of the open data agenda: the economic dimension, its claimed contribution to a better informed citizenry, along with the methods through which open data is practiced, the project uses the allotment case and increased interest food growing to ask: What does digital engagement and transformation look like within these communities? How can these communities further the national open data agenda so that it benefits citizens? How can a more widely adopted and enacted open data strategy benefit local economies? If unsuccessful in these aspects, what might open data’s unintended consequences look like? How can we think of forms of resistance, mobilisation of local histories and heritage identities? How can we rethink received ideas of participation and enacting citizenship in light of these?

The Gendered Effect of Parenthood on Voting Behaviour in the 2021 German Federal Election

description: The effect of parenthood on voting behaviour has so far been largely neglected in electoral research or is assumed to have a negligible effect. However, the 2021 German federal election campaign faced the politicisation of two main family- and children-related issues (i.e. the COVID-19 pandemic and climate change). Based on a comparison of data in the 2017 and 2021 German Longitudinal Election Study, we investigate the gendered effect of parenthood on voting behaviour. Our multinomial logistic regression analysis points to a significant parenthood effect for women during the 2021 election: women with at least one child under the age of 11 have an 8-percentage point higher probability of voting for the Greens than women without children in that age group (controlling among other things for education, age, religiosity and left-right identity). We do not find a similar effect for men. Further analyses suggest that this effect is partly due to a larger importance of climate change issues among mothers of young children. We conclude by highlighting the potential relevance of parents as an electorate force when family- and children-related issues are politicised during electoral campaigns.
