description: Benford’s Law states that, in many real-world data sets, the frequency of numbers’ first digits is predicted by the formula log(1 + (1/d)). Numbers beginning with a 1 occur roughly 30% of the time, and are six times more common than numbers beginning with a 9. We show that Benford’s Law applies to the the frequency rank of words in English, German, French, Spanish, and Italian. We calculated the frequency rank of words in the Google Ngram Viewer corpora. Then, using the first significant digit of the frequency rank, we found the FSD distribution adhered to the expected Benford’s Law distribution. Over a series of additional corpora from sources ranging from news to books to social media and across the languages studied, we consistently found adherence to Benford’s Law. Furthermore, at the user-level on social media, we found Benford’s Law holds for the vast majority of users’ collected posts and significant deviations from Benford’s Law tends to be a mark of spam bots.

description: Zika virus (ZIKV) is a mosquito-borne flavivirus and causes an infection associated with congenital Zika syndrome and Guillain–Barre syndrome. The mechanism of ZIKV-mediated neuropathogenesis is not well understood. In this study, we discovered that ZIKV induces degradation of the Numb protein, which plays a crucial role in neurogenesis by allowing asymmetric cell division during embryonic development. Our data show that ZIKV reduced the Numb protein level in a time- and dose-dependent manner. However, ZIKV infection appears to have minimal effect on the Numb transcript. Treatment of ZIKV-infected cells with a proteasome inhibitor restores the Numb protein level, which suggests the involvement of the ubiquitin–proteasome pathway. In addition, ZIKV infection shortens the half-life of the Numb protein. Among the ZIKV proteins, the capsid protein significantly reduces the Numb protein level. Immunoprecipitation of the Numb protein co-precipitates the capsid protein, indicating the interaction between these two proteins. These results provide insights into the ZIKV–cell interaction that might contribute to its impact on neurogenesis.

description: Pathogenic Rickettsia species proliferate within the cytoplasm of permissive host cells in vivo. The cytoplasm of these host cells is adequate to support the complex metabolic and physiological needs for Rickettsia growth. However, a dramatic host/pathogen interplay occurs when Rickettsia encounter innate immune cells, whereby the bacteria can proliferate as normal or the host can restrict bacterial growth. This interplay is most divergent within myeloid host cells, where intra- and extracellular factors can produce either successful Rickettsia parasitism or innate immune control of bacterial proliferation. With the prior knowledge that the mammalian complement system is activated during mammalian infection, we sought to determine if extracellular complement activation and anaphylatoxin signaling can modify the fate of Rickettsia within mononuclear host cells. Results indicate that supplementation of growth media with either C3a or C5a anaphylatoxin peptides is sufficient for many myeloid cells to control the proliferation of multiple different Rickettsia species. Chemical or genetic disruption of anaphylatoxin signaling or anaphylatoxin receptors eliminates complement-induced restriction of bacterial proliferation. Finally, anaphylatoxin signaling modifies macrophage physiology by inducing inflammatory phenotypes that ultimately control the intracellular proliferation of these pathogens.

description: Changing climatic conditions influence parameters associated with the growth of pathogenic Vibrio spp. in the environment and, hence, are linked to increased incidence of vibriosis. Between 1992 and 2022, a long-term increase in Vibrio spp. infections was reported in Florida, USA. Furthermore, a spike in Vibrio spp. infections was reported post Hurricane Ian, a category five storm that made landfall in Florida on 28 September 2022. During October 2022, water and oyster samples were collected from three stations in Lee County in an area significantly impacted by Ian. Vibrio spp. were isolated, and whole-genome sequencing and phylogenetic analysis were done, with a focus on Vibrio parahaemolyticus and Vibrio vulnificus to provide genetic insight into pathogenic strains circulating in the environment. Metagenomic analysis of water samples provided insight with respect to human health-related factors, notably the detection of approximately 12 pathogenic Vibrio spp., virulence and antibiotic resistance genes, and mobile genetic elements, including the SXT/R391 family of integrative conjugative elements. Environmental parameters were monitored as part of a long-term time series analysis done using satellite remote sensing. In addition to anomalous rainfall and storm surge, changes in sea surface temperature and chlorophyll concentration during and after Ian favored the growth of Vibrio spp. In conclusion, genetic analysis coupled with environmental data and remote sensing provides useful public health information and, hence, constitute a valuable tool to proactively detect and characterize environmental pathogens, notably vibrios. These data can aid the development of early warning systems by yielding a larger source of information for public health during climate change.

description: Machine learning interatomic potentials (MLIPs) are a promising technique for atomic modeling. While small errors are widely reported for MLIPs, an open concern is whether MLIPs can accurately reproduce atomistic dynamics and related physical properties in molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. In this study, we examine the state-of-the-art MLIPs and uncover several discrepancies related to atom dynamics, defects, and rare events (REs), compared to ab initio methods. We find that low averaged errors by current MLIP testing are insufficient, and develop quantitative metrics that better indicate the accurate prediction of atomic dynamics by MLIPs. The MLIPs optimized by the RE-based evaluation metrics are demonstrated to have improved prediction in multiple properties. The identified errors, the evaluation metrics, and the proposed process of developing such metrics are general to MLIPs, thus providing valuable guidance for future testing and improvements of accurate and reliable MLIPs for atomistic modeling.
The development of resistance to an inhibitor of a cellular protein reveals a critical interaction between the enterovirus protein 2C and a small GTPase Arf1

description: The cellular protein GBF1, an activator of Arf GTPases (ArfGEF: Arf guanine nucleotide exchange factor), is recruited to the replication organelles of enteroviruses through interaction with the viral protein 3A, and its ArfGEF activity is required for viral replication, however how GBF1-dependent Arf activation supports the infection remains enigmatic. Here, we investigated the development of resistance of poliovirus, a prototype enterovirus, to increasing concentrations of brefeldin A (BFA), an inhibitor of GBF1. High level of resistance required a gradual accumulation of multiple mutations in the viral protein 2C. The 2C mutations conferred BFA resistance even in the context of a 3A mutant previously shown to be defective in the recruitment of GBF1 to replication organelles, and in cells depleted of GBF1, suggesting a GBF1-independent replication mechanism. Still, activated Arfs accumulated on the replication organelles of this mutant even in the presence of BFA, its replication was inhibited by a pan-ArfGEF inhibitor LM11, and the BFA-resistant phenotype was compromised in Arf1-knockout cells. Importantly, the mutations strongly increased the interaction of 2C with the activated form of Arf1. Analysis of other enteroviruses revealed a particularly strong interaction of 2C of human rhinovirus 1A with activated Arf1. Accordingly, the replication of this virus was significantly less sensitive to BFA than that of poliovirus. Thus, our data demonstrate that enterovirus 2Cs may behave like Arf1 effector proteins and that GBF1 but not Arf activation can be dispensable for enterovirus replication. These findings have important implications for the development of host-targeted anti-viral therapeutics

description: The mixed valence multiferroic LnFe2+Fe3+O4 (where Ln = Y, Lu, and Yb) can reversibly uptake oxygen into its lattice, which is evidenced by a crystallographic phase transition along with the appearance of structural modulations. In this study, we show that the Mn-substituted version of this multiferroic can also be readily oxidized to LnFe3+Mn3+O4.5 revealing similar oxygen storage behavior. Through neutron, electron, and synchrotron x-ray diffraction studies, we observe a structural modulation that we attribute to a displacement wave in the fully oxidized compound. This wave exhibits commensurability with a wavevector q = (−2/7, 1/7, 0). Bond valence summation analysis of plausible interstitial oxygen positions suggests that oxygen insertion likely occurs at the middle of the Fe/Mn–O bipyramid layers. The structural modulation of LnFeMnO4.5 is two-dimensional, propagates along the ab-plane, and is highly symmetric as 12 identical modulation vectors are observed in the diffraction patterns. The nature of the lanthanide, Ln3+, does not seem to influence such modulations since we observe identical satellite reflections for all three samples of Ln = Y, Lu, and Yb. Both LnFeMnO4 and LnFeMnO4.5 display spin glassy behavior with 2D short-range magnetic ordering being observed in LnFeMnO4. Analysis of the neutron diffraction data reveals a correlation length of ∼10 nm. Upon oxidation to LnFeMnO4.5, the short-range magnetic order is significantly suppressed.

description: Autism continues to be a leading neurodevelopmental disorder across adult and pediatric populations that transcends racial, ethnic, age, and socioeconomic groups worldwide. Autism care and treatment also exerts immense costs on the healthcare system and lost productivity which are partly attributed to the existing resource limitations globally. Organizations, campaigns, and policies exist worldwide in increasing equity and accessibility of resources and services to individuals with autism. In the context of our digital era, a wealth of information is also more readily available on autism through electronic communication including social media platforms. As YouTube, Twitter and Facebook are ever-growing and among the leading social media platforms in contemporary times, examination of content covered on autism across these communication mediums is timely and warranted. This review consolidates findings from 32 sources on the sources, formats, and nature of content covered on YouTube, Twitter, and Facebook pertaining to a wealth of dimensions surrounding autism. Strengths and limitations of the studies and endeavors are presented. Implications for future campaign development, health equity, health policy, neurodiversity, and patient care are also delineated. Lastly, recommendations for future research and practice are discussed which present directions for tapping into the potential of YouTube, Twitter, and Facebook as health communication mediums across the ever-changing autism landscape.

description: Black individuals and men are predisposed to an earlier onset and higher prevalence of hypertension, compared with White individuals and women, respectively. Therefore, the influence of race and sex on reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity following induced inflammation was evaluated in female and male human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) from Black and White individuals. It was hypothesized that HUVECs from Black individuals and male HUVECs would exhibit greater ROS production and impaired SOD activity. Inflammation was induced in HUVEC cell lines (n = 4/group) using tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α, 50ng/ml). There were no between group differences in ROS production or SOD activity in HUVECs from Black and White individuals, and HUVECs from Black individuals exhibited similar SOD activity at 24hr compared with 4hr of TNF-α treatment (p>0.05). However, HUVECs from White individuals exhibited significantly greater SOD Activity (p<0.05) at 24hr as compared to 4hr in the control condition but not with TNF-α treatment (p>0.05). Female HUVECs exhibited significantly lower ROS production than male HUVECs in the control condition and following TNF-α induced inflammation (p<0.05). Only female HUVECs exhibited significant increases in SOD activity with increased exposure time to TNF-α induced inflammation (p<0.05). HUVECs from White individuals alone exhibit blunted SOD activity when comparing control and TNF-α conditions. Further, compared to female HUVECs, male HUVECs exhibit a pro-inflammatory state.

description: Eukaryotic genomes encode long noncoding natural antisense transcripts (lncNATs) that have been increasingly recognized as regulatory members of gene expression. Recently, we identified a few antisense transcripts correlating in expression with immune-related genes. However, a systematic genome-wide analysis of lncNATs in rainbow trout is lacking. This study used 134 RNA-Seq datasets from five different projects to identify antisense transcripts. A total of 13,503 lncNATs were identified genome-wide. About 75% of lncNATs showed multiple exons compared to 36.5% of the intergenic lncRNAs. RNA-Seq datasets from resistant, control, and susceptible rainbow trout genetic lines with significant differences in survival rate following Flavobacterium psychrophilum (Fp) infection were analyzed to investigate the potential role of the lncNATs during infection. Twenty-four pairwise comparisons between the different genetic lines, infectious status, and time points revealed 581 differentially expressed (DE) lncNATs and 179 differentially used exons (DUEs). Most of the DE lncNATs strongly and positively correlated in expression with their corresponding sense transcripts across 24 RNA-Seq datasets. LncNATs complementary to genes related to immunity, muscle contraction, proteolysis, and iron/heme metabolism were DE following infection. LncNATs complementary to hemolysis-related genes were DE in the resistant fish compared to susceptible fish on day 5 post-infection, suggesting enhanced clearance of free hemoglobin (Hb) and heme and increased erythropoiesis. LncNATs complementary to hepcidin, a master negative regulator of the plasma iron concentration, were the most downregulated lncNATs on day 5 of bacterial infection in the resistant fish. Ninety-four DE lncNAT, including five complementary to hepcidin, are located within 26 QTL regions previously identified in association with bacterial cold water disease (BCWD) in rainbow trout. Collectively, lncNATs are involved in the molecular architecture of fish immunity and should be further investigated for potential applications in genomic selection and genetic manipulation in aquaculture.

description: SARS-CoV-2 is primarily transmitted through droplets and airborne aerosols, and in order to prevent infection and reduce viral spread vaccines should elicit protective immunity in the airways. The neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) transfers IgG across epithelial barriers and can enhance mucosal delivery of antigens. Here we explore FcRn-mediated respiratory delivery of SARS-CoV-2 spike (S). A monomeric IgG Fc was fused to a stabilized spike; the resulting S-Fc bound to S-specific antibodies and FcRn. Intranasal immunization of mice with S-Fc and CpG significantly induced antibody responses compared to the vaccination with S alone or PBS. Furthermore, we intranasally immunized mice or hamsters with S-Fc. A significant reduction of virus replication in nasal turbinate, lung, and brain was observed following nasal challenges with SARS-CoV-2 and its variants. Intranasal immunization also significantly reduced viral airborne transmission in hamsters. Nasal IgA, neutralizing antibodies, lung-resident memory T cells, and bone-marrow S-specific plasma cells mediated protection. Hence, FcRn delivers an S-Fc antigen effectively into the airway and induces protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection and transmission.

description: Within coastal communities, sea level rise (SLR) will result in widespread intermittent flooding and long-term inundation. Inundation effects will be evident, but isolation that arises from the loss of accessibility to critical services due to inundation of transportation networks may be less obvious. We examine who is most at risk of isolation due to SLR, which can inform community adaptation plans and help ensure that existing social vulnerabilities are not exacerbated. Combining socio-demographic data with an isolation metric, we identify social and economic disparities in risk of isolation under different SLR scenarios (1-10 ft) for the coastal U.S. We show that Black and Hispanic populations face a disproportionate risk of isolation at intermediate levels of SLR (4 ft and greater). Further, census tracts with higher rates of renters and older adults consistently face higher risk of isolation. These insights point to significant inequity in the burdens associated with SLR.

description: Dialettica del postmodernismo è un paper presentato da Massimo Morigi e Stefano Salmi al convegno internazione “Encuentros en el Sur”, che si è svolto dal 25 novembre al 26 novembre 2009 all’Università di Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. Questo paper critica in prospettiva neo-marxista e neo-repubblicana l’ideologia del postmodernismo ed i suoi principali autori, individuando un parallelismo con le ideologie autoritarie in quanto il postmodernismo, alla stessa stregua del fascismo e del nazismo, rifiuta un rapporto dialettico e dinamico con la storia, rifugiandosi in un sorta di idolatria del testo separato dal contesto all’insegna del “Il n’y a pas de hors-texte” di Derrida. D’altro canto, questo rifiuto della storia avvicina il postmodernismo anche con l’attuale vulgata neoliberale e neoliberista. Per gli autori di Dialettica del postmodernismo è quindi di tutta evidenza che il problema non è tanto una critica profonda del postmodernismo, moda culturale ormai del tutto tramontata, ma una critica radicale dell’attuale società neoliberista, che nell’attuale fase storica assume le forme di una società postdemocratica guidata ed egemonizzata da un apparentemente inarrestabile turbocapitalismo. Infine gli autori ritengono che il superamento di tutte queste contraddizione culturali e politiche che trovano nel postmodernismo forse il suo maggiore simbolo possa venire solo da una sintesi fra il marxismo e le più innovative istanze politiche e sociali del neorepubblicanesimo, in un orizzonte progettuale all’insegna della antropologia arendtiana della Vita Activa.

description: Early adversities, including prenatal drug exposure (PDE) and a negative postnatal emotional caregiving environment, impact children’s long-term development. The protracted developmental course of memory and its underlying neural systems offer a valuable framework for understanding the longitudinal associations of pre- and postnatal factors on children with PDE. This study longitudinally examines memory and hippocampal development in 69 parent–child dyads to investigate how the early caregiving emotional environment affects children with PDE’s neural and cognitive systems. Measures of physical health, drug exposure, caregiver stress, depression, and distress were collected between 0 and 24 months At age 14 years, adolescents completed multiple measures of episodic memory, and at ages 14 and 18 years, adolescents underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans. Latent constructs of episodic memory and the caregiving environment were created using Confirmatory Factor Analysis. Multiple regressions revealed a negative emotional caregiving environment during infancy was associated with poor memory performance and smaller left hippocampal volumes at 14 years. Better memory performance at 14 years predicted larger right hippocampal volume at 18 years. At 18 years, the association between the emotional caregiving environment and hippocampal volume was moderated by sex, such that a negative emotional caregiving environment was associated with larger left hippocampal volumes in males but not females. Findings suggest that the postnatal caregiving environment may modulate the effects of PDE across development, influencing neurocognitive development.

description: Omoleon Navás, 1936
Type species. Omoleon jeanneli Navás, 1936; by original designation and monotypy.
Distribution. This monospecific genus is known only from East Africa.
Remarks. Omoleon jeanneli Navás, 1936 superficially resembles Doblina tristigatus (Fraser, 1951), but it is easily distinguishable by the costal area of the forewing. Species of the genus Doblina Navás, 1927 have two rows of cells, but that of Omoleon Navás, 1936 has only a single row of cells. Based on the wing shape, non-opposable tarsal claws and the tibial spurs, the genus Omoleon can be differentiated from all other African Dendroleontini genera (Cymothales Gerstaecker, 1893, Bankisus Navás, 1912, Tricholeon Esben-Petersen, 1925). The following characters separate the genus Omoleon from the genus Dendroleon Brauer, 1866: Rs arises close to cubital fork in Omoleon but they are far from each other in Dendroleon. Species of the genus Dendroleon are distributed in the Oriental and Palearctic realms, while Omoleon has an isolated distribution in Eastern Africa.

description: Introduction: Understanding fitness costs associated with fungicide resistance is critical to improve resistance management strategies. E198A in b-tubulin confers resistance to the fungicide thiophanate-methyl and has been widely reported in several plant pathogens including Colletotrichum siamense. Method: To better understand potential fitness costs associated with the resistance, a ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex mediated CRISPR/Cas9 system was used to create a point mutation (E198A) through homology directed repair (HDR) in each of the sensitive (E198) C. siamense isolates collected from strawberries, raspberries, and peaches. The RNP complex was delivered into fungal protoplasts using polyethylene glycol-mediated (PEG) transfection. Results: The transformation efficiency, the proportion of transformants of sensitive parental isolates containing the E198A mutation, averaged 72%. No off-target mutations were observed when sequences similar to the b-tubulin target region with a maximum of four mismatch sites were analyzed, suggesting that the CRISPR/Cas9 system used in this study was highly specific for genome editing in C. siamense. Of the 41 comparisons of fitness between mutant and wild type isolates through in vitro and detached fruit assays, mutant isolates appeared to be as fit (24 of 41 comparisons), if not more fit than wild-type isolates (10 of 41 comparisons). Discussion: The use of CRISPR/Cas9 to evaluate fitness costs associated with point mutations in this study represents a novel and useful method, since wild-type and mutant isolates were genetically identical except for the target mutation.

description: Motivated by the high-performance solid-state lithium batteries enabled by lithium superionic conductors, sodium superionic conductor materials have great potential to empower sodium batteries with high energy, low cost, and sustainability. A critical challenge lies in designing and discovering sodium superionic conductors with high ionic conductivities to enable the development of solid-state sodium batteries. Here, by studying the structures and diffusion mechanisms of Li-ion versus Na-ion conducting solids, we reveal the structural feature of face-sharing high-coordination sites for fast sodium-ion conductors. By applying this feature as a design principle, we discover a number of Na-ion conductors in oxides, sulfides, and halides. Notably, we discover a chloride-based family of Na-ion conductors NaxMyCl6 (M = La–Sm) with UCl3-type structure and experimentally validate with the highest reported ionic conductivity. Our findings not only pave the way for the future development of sodium-ion conductors for sodium batteries, but also consolidate design principles of fast ion-conducting materials for a variety of energy applications.

description: Background:

Caustic ingestion is an infrequent reason for consultation in the emergency room; in adults, cases of ingestion are usually self-inflicted, with complications such as intestinal perforation and death in the acute phase, and long-term stenosis and development of carcinoma. We report the case of a 23-year-old male with a personal history of major depressive disorder and generalized anxiety. Four hours before admission he reported ingestion of 400 ml of a corrosive substance, starting with abdominal pain, for which he went to the emergency department. We describe the diagnostic approach and management provided in a third-level hospital in the north of Mexico, including the initial approach in the emergency department, nasoendoscopy of the airway, and upper endoscopy. After detecting and receiving early emergency care management, we describe the patient's positive evolution. The relationship between symptoms and the severity of the lesion may be imprecise since there are not enough statistical publications, it is necessary to develop studies and collect clinical data to obtain the standard management and optimal treatment of caustic ingestion and to investigate the factors that cause variability in the clinical picture and the evolution of the patients.
