(FIGS 3 KL, 4D)
Type material: Female, carapace length 8 mm, ZMA. CRUDS.D.102591, ‘Siboga’, St. 230, 03°58’ S, 128°20’ E, 0-2000 m (holotype); male, carapace length 11 mm, ZMA. CRUDS.D.102591, ‘Siboga’, St. 230, 03°58’ S, 128°20’ E, 0-2000 m (paratype).
Material examined: Nine females and eight males (details in Supporting Information, Appendix S1).
Type locality: Equatorial Indian Ocean, 03°58’ S, 128°20’ E.
Emended diagnosis: Integument membraneous; rostrum not reaching distal corneal margin, armed with one apical and one dorsal tooth; carapace with developed branchiostegal spine set on anterior margin, hepatic spine absent; pleon with first to fifth somites dorsally rounded and sixth somite dorsally carinate; telson posteriorly truncate, with a single pair of apical spines, dorsolateral spines absent. Eyestalks with long tubercle. First maxilliped with exopod not segmented distally; fourth and fifth pereopods with dactyl slender, not articulated. Petasma (Fig. 4D) subrectangular, LA and grasping structure present, PM and PE entire. Thelycum (Fig. 3K, L): S6 subtriangular, bearing setose shield directed forward; S7 divided, AS 7 as two subtriangular protrusuions with sharp anterior angles, PS as long chitinized strip, laterally produced beyond coxae, with two groups of lateral setae in addition to two groups of sublateral setae, coxae with long setose protuberances; S8 with setose shield directed forward.
Geographical distribution: The type material and the examined material from the Dana Expeditions derive from a narrow strip between 12° S and 4° N and 56° E and 138° E in the Indian Ocean and the West Pacific. This species is probably associated with the Equatorial waters of this region; records from other oceanic areas (e.g. Pérez Farfante & Kensley, 1997) may be a result of misidentification due to an incomplete original description.

description: This article gives an overview of the results of the wind energy research project AssiSt. Results of the four work packages include flow in complex terrain, wind energy converters (WEC) in complex terrain subject to atmospheric inflow, laminar-turbulent transition, generator cooling, hub aerodynamics, and passive flow control devices. Four different flow solvers (PALM, FLOWer, THETA, OpenFOAM) are in use during the course of the project depending on the corresponding problem requiring specific solver features. Key achievements of the project are the coupling of atmospheric LES (PALM) and URANS simulations of the complete WEC (FLOWer as well as THETA) in order to impose the external turbulent flow fields to the inflow of the WEC for physics resolved load simulations, numerical replication of complex flows over blades with vortex generators using OpenFOAM and efficiency-augmented pressure loss simulations on very complex industrial geometries of ENERCON's direct drive WEC generators for precise cooling analyses. Industrial validity of all methods, model and process developments were key objectives of this research project.

description: Abstract Background The burden, clinical features, and molecular epidemiology of norovirus infection in young children in southern Africa are not well defined. Methods Using data from a health facility-based surveillance study of children <5 years in Lusaka Province, Zambia presenting with diarrhea, we assessed the burden of norovirus infection. A convenience sample of 454 stool specimens was tested for norovirus using reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). RT-PCR positive samples underwent additional nucleotide sequencing for genogroup and genotype identification. Clinical features and severity of diarrheal illnesses were compared between norovirus-positive and -negative subjects using Chi-squared and t-tests. Results Norovirus was detected in 52/454 (11.5%) specimens tested. Abdominal pain, fever, and vomiting were the most common presenting features in norovirus-associated illnesses. However, there were no significant differences in the clinical features of norovirus-positive compared to norovirus-negative illnesses. Of 43 isolates that were available for sequencing, 31 (72.1%) were genogroup II (GII) and 12 (27.9%) were genogroup I (GI). The distribution of genotypes was diverse. Conclusions Noroviruses were detected in approximately 10% of young children with diarrhea in the Lusaka Province of Zambia, with GII representing the majority of infections. These findings support the role of norovirus in symptomatic diarrhea disease in Africa. Further studies are needed to confirm these observations and to evaluate prevention strategies.
On the link between Octahedral Rotations and Conductivity in the Domain Walls of BiFeO3

description: We analyze the hypothetical link between octahedral straightening and increased conductivity inside the domain walls of BiFeO3. Our calculations for 109 degree walls predict a lattice parameter expansion of c.a. 1 percent in the direction perpendicular to the wall, and an associated straightening of the octahedral rotation angle of 4 degrees, which is comparable to that observed in the high temperature metallic phase of BiFeO3. On the other hand, in the closely related family of rare-earth orthoferrites, straighter octahedra do not correlate with increased bandgap, which suggests that the correlation between octahedral straightening and bandgap reduction in BiFeO3 is perhaps fortuitous and not necessarily the cause of increased conductivity at the walls.

description: We report a memristive switching effect in the Pt/CuOx/Si/Pt devices prepared by rf sputtering technique at room temperature. Different from other Cu-based switching systems, the devices show a non-filamentary switching effect. A gradual electroforming marked by resistance increasing and capacitance decreasing is observed in current-voltage and capacitance characteristics. By the Auger electron spectroscopy analysis, a model based on Cu ion and oxygen vacancy drift, and thickness change of the SiOx layer at the CuOx/Si interface was proposed for the memristive switching and gradual electroforming, respectively. The present work would be meaningful for the preparation of forming-free and homogeneous memristive devices.

description: This project aimed to: (1) Identify CBT meta-competencies (MCs) through a series of therapist judgement tasks, about the needs of clients in complex clinical scenarios. (2) Compare trainee, recently qualified, and experienced CBT therapists on these tasks, to explore and identify MCs, which were hypothesised to be more developed in experienced therapists. (3) Identify which MCs are prioritised in clinically complex scenarios. Pilot study: Participants will be asked the likeliness of importance of specific competencies in several hypothetical situations. Participants are also given the opportunity to offer any competencies that have not been listed. Main study: 3 groups of therapists (trainee, recently qualified, experienced) will be asked to rate the likeliness of importance and use of meta competencies and competencies in a variety of hypothetical scenarios. The competencies used will be the ones indicated as being the most important from the pilot study.

description: The Hubble morphological sequence from early to late galaxies corresponds to an increasing rate of specific star formation. The Hubble sequence also follows a banana-shaped correlation between 24 and 70 micron luminosities, both normalized with the K-band luminosity. We show that this correlation is significantly tightened if galaxies with central AGN emission are removed, but the cosmic scatter of elliptical galaxies in both 24 and 70 micron luminosities remains significant along the correlation. We find that the 24 micron variation among ellipticals correlates with stellar metallicity, reflecting emission from hot dust in winds from asymptotic giant branch stars of varying metallicity. Infrared surface brightness variations in elliptical galaxies indicate that the K - 24 color profile is U-shaped for reasons that are unclear. In some elliptical galaxies cold interstellar dust emitting at 70 and 160 microns may arise from recent gas-rich mergers. However, we argue that most of the large range of 70 micron luminosity in elliptical galaxies is due to dust transported from galactic cores by feedback events in (currently IR-quiet) active galactic nuclei. Cooler dusty gas naturally accumulates in the cores of elliptical galaxies due to dust-cooled local stellar mass loss and may accrete onto the central black hole, releasing energy. AGN-heated gas can transport dust in cores 5-10 kpc out into the hot gas atmospheres where it radiates extended 70 micron emission but is eventually destroyed by sputtering. This, and some modest star formation, defines a cycle of dust creation and destruction. Elliptical galaxies evidently undergo large transient excursions in the banana plot in times comparable to the sputtering time or AGN duty cycle, 10 Myrs. Normally regarded as passive, elliptical galaxies are the most active galaxies in the IR color-color correlation.

description: Abstract Background Diarrhoea and acute respiratory conditions are common medical conditions among under-five children in resource-limited and conflict situations. The present study was conducted to estimate the prevalence and associated factors for acute respiratory conditions and diarrhoea among children under the age of five years in Iraq in 2000. Methods Data for the Iraqi Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey were obtained from UNICEF. We estimated the prevalence of acute respiratory conditions and diarrhoea. Assessment of the associations between these two medical conditions on one hand and socio-demographic and environmental variables on the other was done using logistic regression analysis. Weighted analysis was conducted to account for complex survey design. Results A total of 14,676 children under the age of 5 years were reported by their mothers in the study. Of these 50.4% were males. About half (53.9%) of the children had complete vaccination status. Overall, 21.3% of the children had diarrhoea, and 6.9% had acute respiratory infection (ARI) in the last two weeks. In multivariate analysis, diarrhoea was associated with age of child, area of residence, maternal education, source of water, toilet facility, disposal of children' stool and disposal of dirty water. Compared to children aged 48–59 months, children in the age groups 6–11 months and 12–23 months were 2.22 (95%CI [2.02, 2.44]) and 1.84 (95%CI [1.71, 2.00]) times more likely, respectively, to have diarrhoea. Children whose mothers had no formal education were 11% (AOR = 1.11, 95%CI [1.04, 1.18]) more likely to have diarrhoea compared to children with mothers who had attained secondary level of education. Compared to children who belonged to households with unprotected well or river as the main source of water, children who belonged to households with piped water were 32% (AOR = 1.32, 95%CI [1.17, 1.48]) more likely to have diarrhoea while those who belonged to households with protected well were 26% (AOR = 0.74, 95%CI [0.62, 0.89]) less likely to have diarrhoea. Age of child, toilet facility, wealth, and sex of child were significantly associated with ARI. Conclusion In a study of under-five children in Iraq in 2000, we found that history of diarrhoea and ARI were negatively associated with lower socio-economic status, adequate disposal of children's stool and dirty water, but the results were inconsistent in terms of access to potable water and sanitation facilities possibly due to non-functioning of water and sewage plants after the war. Improvement in water quality and sanitation are vital in the reduction of diarrhoeal diseases.

description: Background: Adolescent human papillomavirus vaccine uptake in Ireland dropped to 50–60 % between 2016 and 2021. Healthcare professionals play a vital role in increasing the uptake of human papillomavirus vaccine among adolescents. This is the first study that sought to identify the key opportunities for healthcare professionals to get adolescent vaccination uptake to optimal rate. Objective: To explore the strategies healthcare professionals in Ireland use to promote vaccine uptake among adolescents and to understand how they are addressing vaccine hesitancy. Design: A qualitative descriptive study. Setting(s): Three community health organisations in Ireland. Participants: A purposive sample of 17 healthcare professionals involved in the delivery of the human papillomavirus vaccination programme in Ireland was recruited. Methods: Semi-structured interviews were conducted between November 2022 and July 2023. Reflexive thematic analysis method was used to analyse the interview data. Results: Four themes emerged from the data: Attitudes towards the human papillomavirus vaccine; Strategies used to promote the vaccine's uptake; Organisational and structural enablers and barriers; and Future improvement strategies. Healthcare professionals reported that there are still concerns about the safety and efficacy of human papillomavirus vaccine especially among marginalised populations. Healthcare professionals reported that increased uptake was more likely if they adopted flexible approaches to delivering the vaccine, easily accessible drop-in clinics, and proving more opportunities to educate adolescents and parents about the importance of the vaccine. Despite these efforts, healthcare professionals are faced with organisational barriers that hinder effective delivery. Policy reform to support and educate stakeholders could improve the vaccine uptake. In addition, more work is needed to address unproven negative testimonies on social media, to reduce concerns among the public regarding the safety and potential side effects of the vaccine. Conclusions: Human papillomavirus vaccine is one of the best preventative measures that public health care has to offer in preventing and reducing human papillomavirus related cancers and infections. Healthcare professionals demonstrated several interventions they adopt to improve the uptake of the human papillomavirus vaccine for adolescents. The findings suggest that adopting better multi-setting approaches to vaccination programmes and multi-system collaborative efforts would significantly increase the uptake of the vaccine.

description: Abstract Background Traditional birth attendants (TBAs) are likely to deliver lower quality maternity care compared to professional health workers. It is important to characterize women who are assisted by TBAs in order to design interventions specific to such groups. We thus conducted a study to assess if socio-economic status and demographic factors are associated with having childbirth supervised by traditional birth attendants in Iraq. Methods Iraqi Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS) data for 2000 were used. We estimated frequencies and proportions of having been delivered by a traditional birth attendant and other social characteristics. Logistic regression analysis was used to assess the association between having been delivered by a TBA and wealth, area of residence (urban versus rural), parity, maternal education and age. Results Altogether 22,980 women participated in the survey, and of these women, 2873 had delivery information and whether they were assisted by traditional birth attendants (TBAs) or not during delivery. About 1 in 5 women (26.9%) had been assisted by TBAs. Compared to women of age 35 years or more, women of age 25–34 years were 22% (AOR = 1.22, 95%CI [1.08, 1.39]) more likely to be assisted by TBAs during delivery. Women who had no formal education were 42% (AOR = 1.42, 95%CI [1.22, 1.65]) more likely to be delivered by TBAs compared to those who had attained secondary or higher level of education. Women in the poorest wealth quintile were 2.52 (AOR = 2.52, 95%CI [2.14, 2.98]) more likely to be delivered by TBAs compared to those in the richest quintile. Compared to women who had 7 or more children, those who had 1 or 2 were 28% (AOR = 0.72, 95%CI [0.59, 0.87]) less likely to be delivered by TBAs. Conclusion Findings from this study indicate that having delivery supervised by traditional birth attendants was associated with young maternal age, low education, and being poor. Meanwhile women having 1 or 2 children were less likely to be delivered by TBAs. These factors should be considered in the design of interventions to reduce the rate of deliveries assisted by TBAs in favour of professional midwives, and consequently reduce maternal and neonatal mortality rates and other adverse events.

description: Context: In protoplanetary disks, dust grains coagulate with each other and grow to form aggregates. As these aggregates grow by coagulation, their filling factor ϕdecreases down to ϕ<< 1. However, comets, the remnants of these early planetesimals, have ϕ~ 0.1. Thus, static compression of porous dust aggregates is important in planetesimal formation. However, the static compression strength has been investigated only for relatively high density aggregates (ϕ> 0.1). Aims: We investigate and find the compression strength of highly porous aggregates (ϕ<< 1). Methods: We perform three dimensional N-body simulations of aggregate compression with a particle-particle interaction model. We introduce a new method of static compression: the periodic boundary condition is adopted and the boundaries move with low speed to get closer. The dust aggregate is compressed uniformly and isotropically by themselves over the periodic boundaries. Results: We empirically derive a formula of the compression strength of highly porous aggregates (ϕ<< 1). We check the validity of the compression strength formula for wide ranges of numerical parameters, such as the size of initial aggregates, the boundary speed, the normal damping force, and material. We also compare our results to the previous studies of static compression in the relatively high density region (ϕ> 0.1) and confirm that our results consistently connect to those in the high density region. The compression strength formula is also derived analytically.

description: Chromatin ImmunoPrecipitation-sequencing (ChIP-seq) experiments have now become routine in biology for the detection of protein binding sites. In this paper, we present a Markov random field model for the joint analysis of multiple ChIP-seq experiments. The proposed model naturally accounts for spatial dependencies in the data, by assuming first order Markov properties, and for the large proportion of zero counts, by using zero-inflated mixture distributions. In contrast to all other available implementations, the model allows for the joint modelling of multiple experiments, by incorporating key aspects of the experimental design. In particular, the model uses the information about replicates and about the different antibodies used in the experiments. An extensive simulation study shows a lower false non-discovery rate for the proposed method, compared to existing methods, at the same false discovery rate. Finally, we present an analysis on real data for the detection of histone modifications of two chromatin modifiers from eight ChIP-seq experiments, including technical replicates with different IP efficiencies.

Although the pumpkin system produced three times more parasitoids than the columbine system, both banker plants led to an 1.5-fold increase in A. proletella parasitism rates. However, only the pumpkin system increased the abundance of syrphid larvae on cabbage by 61.5% and reduced A. proletella populations on average by 4.4%–25.8% depending on the respective assessment date. In conclusion, the pumpkin system revealed to be a promising (supplementary) control measure against A. proletella. Options for further improvement and standardization of the pumpkin system as well as a potential implementation in cabbage production are discussed. © 2020 The Authors.

description: Hans Tietze (1880-1954), der bis in die 30er Jahre des 20. Jahrhunderts die Kunstwissenschaft, das Museumswesen und die zeitgenössische Kunst im Rahmen der Gesellschaft zur Förderung moderner Kunst, die er gemeinsam mit seiner Frau Erica Tietze-Conrat, erste promovierte Kunsthistorikerin in Wien, gestaltete, prägte, scheint in Vergessenheit zu geraten. Trotz seines eindrucksvollen beruflichen Werdeganges, seiner Lehrtätigkeit am Institut Kunstgeschichte an der Universität Wien und seiner Bemühungen um die moderne Kunst, war er nach seiner Emigration in die USA im Jahre 1938 die meiste Zeit arbeitslos. Michael Baxandall (1933-2008) scheint mit Tietzes Werk Die Methode der Kunstgeschichte von 1913 bekannt zu sein, doch kam er mit der Wiener Schule der Kunstgeschichte lediglich über eine Vorlesung Hans Sedlmayrs im Jahr 1957/8 in München in Verbindung. Dennoch scheint es zwischen Baxandalls und Tietzes Position mehrere Parallelen zu geben. Inwiefern ein Einfluss stattgefunden haben könnte, bzw. worin die Gemeinsamkeiten und Unterschiede beider liegen, wird im folgenden Beitrag diskutiert werden.

description: This article gives an overview on the advance of spin noise spectroscopy (SNS) in semiconductors in the past 8 years from the first measurements in bulk n-GaAs [Oestreich et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 95, 216603 (2005)] up to the recent achievement of optical detection of the intrinsic spin fluctuations of a single hole confined in an individual self-assembled quantum dot [Dahbashi et al., arXiv:1306.3183 (2013)]. We discuss the general technical implementation of optical SNS and the invaluable profit of the introduction of real-time fast Fourier transform analysis into the data acquisition. By now, the full spin dynamic from the milli- to picosecond timescales can be addressed by SNS and the technique quickly strides ahead to enable real quantum non-demolition measurements in semiconductors. Spin noise spectra recorded in 2005 in bulk n-GaAs with approximately 109 electron spins (Oestreich et al.) and 2013 (Dahbashi et al.) for a single hole spin. The integration time for the latter is more than a factor of 40 shorter due to the significant advances in the measurement technique.

description: This paper discusses and explains the phenomenon of salinity inversions in the thermocline offshore from an upwelling region during upwelling favorable winds. Using the nontidal central Baltic Sea as an easily accessible natural laboratory, high-resolution transect and station observations in the upper layers are analyzed. The data show local salinity minima in the strongly stratified seasonal thermocline during summer conditions under the influence of upwelling favorable wind. A simple analytical box model using parameters (including variation by means of a Monte Carlo method) estimated from a hindcast model for the Baltic Sea is constructed to explain the observations. As a result, upwelled water with high salinity and low temperature is warmed up due to downward surface heat fluxes while it is transported offshore by the Ekman transport. The warming of upwelled surface water allows maintenance of stable stratification despite the destabilizing salinity stratification, such that local salinity minima in the thermocline can be generated. Inspection of published observations from the Benguela, Peruvian, and eastern tropical North Atlantic upwelling systems shows that also there salinity inversions occur in the thermocline, but in these cases thermocline salinity shows local maxima, since upwelled water has a lower salinity than the surface water. It is hypothesized that thermocline salinity inversions should generally occur offshore from upwelling regions whenever winds are steady enough and surface warming is sufficiently strong.

description: Abstract Background Previous human exposure studies of traffic-related air pollutants have demonstrated adverse health effects in human populations by comparing areas of high and low traffic, but few studies have utilized microenvironmental monitoring of pollutants at multiple traffic locations while looking at a vast array of health endpoints in the same population. We evaluated inflammatory markers, heart rate variability (HRV), blood pressure, exhaled nitric oxide, and lung function in healthy participants after exposures to varying mixtures of traffic pollutants. Methods A repeated-measures, crossover study design was used in which 23 healthy, non-smoking adults had clinical cardiopulmonary and systemic inflammatory measurements taken prior to, immediately after, and 24 hours after intermittent walking for two hours in the summer months along three diverse roadways having unique emission characteristics. Measurements of PM2.5, PM10, black carbon (BC), elemental carbon (EC), and organic carbon (OC) were collected. Mixed effect models were used to assess changes in health effects associated with these specific pollutant classes. Results Minimal associations were observed with lung function measurements and the pollutants measured. Small decreases in BP measurements and rMSSD, and increases in IL-1β and the low frequency to high frequency ratio measured in HRV, were observed with increasing concentrations of PM2.5 EC. Conclusions Small, acute changes in cardiovascular and inflammation-related effects of microenvironmental exposures to traffic-related air pollution were observed in a group of healthy young adults. The associations were most profound with the diesel-source EC.

description: This study was conducted to determine if the main components of the somatotropic axis change during the early phase of pregnancy in the maternal blood system and whether differences exist on day 18 after pregnancy recognition by the maternal organism. Blood samples of pregnant heifers (Holstein Friesian; n = 10 after embryo transfer) were obtained on the day of ovulation (day 0), as well as on days 7, 14, 16 and 18 and during pregnant, non-pregnant and negative control cycles. The concentrations of progesterone (P-4), oestrogen, growth hormone (GH), insulin-like growth factor-1 and -2 (IGF1, -2) and IGF-binding protein-2, -3 and -4 (IGFBP2, -3, -4) were measured. The mRNA expressions of growth hormone recefitor 1A, IGF1, IGF2, IGFBP2, IGFBP3 and IGFBP4 were detected using RT-qPCR in liver biopsy specimens (day 18). In all groups, total serum IGF1 decreased from day 0 to 16. Notably, IGFBP4 maternal blood concentrations were lower during pregnancy than during non-pregnant cycles and synchronized control cycles. It can be speculated that the lower IGFBP4 in maternal blood may result in an increase of free IGF1 for local action. Further studies regarding IGFBP4 concentration and healthy early pregnancy are warranted.

description: The glass transition is relevant for performance definition in rubber products. For extrapolation to high-frequency behavior, time–temperature superposition is usually assumed, although most complex rubber compounds might be outside of its area of validity. Fast differential scanning calorimetry (FDSC) with cooling rates up to 1500 K/s and broadband dielectric spectroscopy (BDS) with frequencies up to 20 MHz are applied here to directly access both kinetics and dynamics of glass formation in a wide frequency range. For the first-time, the relation between the thermal vitrification and the dielectric relaxation is studied on vulcanized styrene-butadiene rubber, showing that both cooling rate and frequency dependence of its glass transition can be described by one single Vogel-Fulcher-Tammann-Hesse equation. The results indicate the validity of the Frenkel-Kobeko-Reiner equation. Another focus is the sample preparation of vulcanized elastomers for FDSC and BDS as well as the temperature calibration below 0°C. © 2020 The Authors.

description: This work aims to prepare low-cost nanocomposite and microcomposite with lower molar ratio CaO/SiO2 (0.4). Nano-silica, rice husk ash and calcined chicken eggshell have been used as silica and calcium sources. Metakaolin has been separately replaced by 0, 10 and 20 wt% of each composite in order to study their behavior on the properties of geopolymers. The hardener used is sodium waterglass from rice husk ash. The surface area of nano-silica and rice husk ash was 54.40 and 4.08 m2/g, respectively. The cumulative volumes of the control geopolymer, the ones containing 10 wt% of microcomposite and nanocomposite are 119.71, 89.92 and 110.49 mm3/g, respectively. The compressive strength of the control specimen is around 64.02 MPa. The one using 10 wt% of microcomposite was 68.97 MPa. It drops to 42.88 MPa when metakaolin was replaced by 20 wt % of microcomposite. Whereas the one using 10 wt% of nanocomposite was 30.03 MPa and it decreases to 26.05 MPa when metakaolin was substituted by 20 wt% of nanocomposite. It can be concluded that 10 wt% of microcomposite could be mixed to metakaolin for strength development and nanocomposite does not recommend to use as an additive for producing high strength of geopolymer cements. © 2020, © 2020 The Author(s).

description: Charge-exchange rescattering $π^+π^-\to π^0π^0$ leads to a cusp effect in the $π^0π^0$ invariant mass spectrum of processes with $π^0π^0$ in the final state which can be used to measure $ππ$ $S$-wave scattering lengths. Employing a non-relativistic effective field theory, we discuss the possibility of extracting the scattering lengths in heavy quarkonium $π^0π^0$ transitions. The transition $Υ(3S)\toΥ(2S)π^0π^0$ is studied in details. We discuss the precision that can be reached in such an extraction for a certain number of events.
