description: The study of physiology in response to war and forced displacement can yield insight into the origin of stress-related mental health disorders. Previous studies found alterations in hair cortisol concentrations (HCC) in refugees. However, the direction of this alteration in HCC, as well as the association between HCC and psychological stress, remain unclear. Mixed findings can potentially be explained by the lack of contextual factors that have been taken into account. In this explorative study, we investigated HCCs in three female refugee samples (N = 89) in different contexts. Samples were i) asylum seekers from Syria, who sought protection in Germany two years ago (n = 37), ii) internally displaced persons (IDPs), who fled a genocide and lived in conditions of onging insecurity in Iraq (n = 14), and iii) Kurdish immigrants and former asylum seekers, who resettled to Germany 18 years ago and were used as reference group (n = 38). HCC was assessed in the scalp-nearest 6 cm of hair (2*3 cm segments). Data on mental and physical health, exposure to traumatic events, and time between immigration and HCC assessments were collected. Syrian asylum seekers had lower HCC than immigrant controls (η2 = .06). PTSD symptoms and perceived stress were associated with elevated cortisol levels in IDPs (r = .66 and r = .56), while time since immigration was associated with cortisol levels only in immigrant controls (r = .38). We discuss our findings with regard to the importance of contextual factors, particularly time since displacement and on-going insecurity, when studying physiological reactions in refugees.Lay summaryFemale Syrian asylum seekers had lower levels of hair cortisol concentration than Kurdish immigrants in Germany. Hair cortisol concentration was associated with post-traumatic stress symptoms only in internally displaced women who were exposed to ongoing stress and insecurity in Iraq. Female Syrian asylum seekers had lower levels of hair cortisol concentration than Kurdish immigrants in Germany. Hair cortisol concentration was associated with post-traumatic stress symptoms only in internally displaced women who were exposed to ongoing stress and insecurity in Iraq.

description: Work Package (WP) 2 is to provide an enhanced analytical framework including theoretical foundations and methodological guidance for all subsequent analyses. Task 2.1 feeds into this broader analytical framework by identifying SDG indicators - from the total set of 248 – that could inform the design and operationalisation of the analytical framework. To structure the list of indicators, we use a conceptual framework that places them around six categories related to agri-food value chains, providing, in turn, a more comprehensive and systemic view of agri-food trade. The conceptual framework was informed by the results of WP1 and provides a common basis for the analyses to be carried out in WP3.

description: In order to create futures that are resilient and allow for the incorporation of a ‘bottom-up’ perspective, transition is dependent on citizen engagement. This thesis presents a study of this engagement during moments of disruption, past and future electrical blackouts. Today, citizens are designing and self-organising community resilience and emergency ‘services’, partly out of necessity in austerity economies and partly due to a new sense of emerging sociability and solidarity. This thesis explores how publics engage with the future, deal with complexity and use modes of infrastructuring to maintain and create practices and action. This thesis provides novel methodological tools for the study of futures and public engagement in our increasingly risky societies. A conceptual and methodological framework developed from empirical material; case studies of electrical blackouts in 1974 and 2015, alongside a co-creation workshop, pioneers a novel combination of disciplinary perspectives and insights. This methodological mix of orchestrating collaboration with diverse stakeholders and public engagement in research allows for new modes of futures literacy, not only for engaging with the challenges and opportunities of transition to low carbon energy systems but also how to approach other complex and potentially disruptive moments in the future. Bringing together multiple perspectives and timescales in the same thesis for thinking about Social Futures allows a way of engaging with post-disciplinary future forming research and begin to develop a futures toolkit .

description: Adhatoda vasica (AV), a popular Indian medicinal plant, is a rich source of polyphenoliccompounds especially flavonoids which are responsible for strong anti-oxidantproperties that helps in the therapy of various respiratory diseases. In the presentinvestigation, phytochemical screening and gas chromatography mass spectrometryanalysis of AV leaves was carried out to evaluate the chemical composition in differentsolvent extraction which could be useful in future experimental studies. Phytochemicalanalysis confirmed the presence of alkaloids, flavaones, flavanoids, phytosterols, fixedoils, saponins, phenolic compounds, tannins, carbohydrates and glycosides in theethanolic extract comparing to the other extracts. Interestingly, ten anti-inflammatorycompounds like terpene alcohol, diterpene, linolenic acid, alkaloid, vitamin, steroid andsesquiterpene oxide were identified through GC- MS analysis in both the ethanol andmethanol extract. In conclusion, the ethanol extract is more effective for extracting majoractive compounds and for therapeutic applications.

D1.3 An Assessment of the Role of Sustainability Goals in Trade Rules
Creators: name: Idsardi, Ernst
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: The aim of Deliverable 1.3 was to “set the scene” for the MATS project by conducting a brief analysis of the current linkages between trade rules and the SDGs. This was done by reviewing relevant literature and databases as well as text analysis in the Atlas.ti software package. The focus of the study was on the EU’s Non-Tariff Measures (NTMs), a selection of EU trade agreements with developing countries as well as Voluntary Sustainability Standards (VSS) applicable to agriculture. The analyses showed that all three types of trade rules have indirect linkages with the SDGs. For the NTMs and trade agreements these linkages were relatively concentrated on a limited set of SDGs. However, the VSS cover a much broader range of SDGs. SDG3 (health and wellbeing) had the highest coverage in the EU NTMs and SDG8 (decent work and economic growth) recorded the highest coverage in the selected EU trade agreements. For the agricultural VSS, most of the linkages were with SDG16 (peace, justice, and strong institutions). SDG6 (water and sanitation) recorded the weakest coverage in all three types of trade rules.

description: Crisp yam chips were produced using hot air drying (AD), vacuum drying (VD), freeze drying (FD), and explosion puffing drying (EPD). As a result, the reducing sugar, total polyphenol and vitamin C contents, rehydration rate and volume ratio were well retained in freeze-dried chips with explosion puffing-dried chips following closely behind, which exhibited a higher total soluble solids content (TSS) and crispness. The microstructure of explosion puffing-dried chips showed distinct cell wall breakage and cell expansion, indicating the release of more TSSs and a relatively high hardness and crispness. Based on physicochemical chip properties, FD and EPD could be distinguished from the other drying methods, and the characteristic physicochemical properties of explosion puffing-dried yam chips were identified as the hardness and TSS level using multivariate analysis. Furthermore, 43 volatile compounds were isolated and identified in fresh yam and dried yam chips using headspace solid-phase microextraction gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS). Based on the volatile compositions of the samples, oct-1-en-3-ol was identified as the major volatile compound in fresh yam, and the volatiles in the explosion puffing-dried chips were clearly distinguished from those in the other dried yam chips due to the unique puffing process.

description: The present discussion paper examines trends in the agri-food trade by focusing on six agri-food products traded globally namely: Wine, Dairy, Beef, Pork, Poultry, and Coffee. The study analyses global trade trends of these agri-food products and the impact of socioeconomic factors [such as GDP (Gross Domestic Product) and common language], geographical distance, various trade policies (e.g., tariffs, and non-tariff measures such as Sanitary and Phytosanitary Standards, Technical Barriers to Trade and other non-tariff measures), and regimes [e.g., trade agreements, trade between the EU (European Union) and the rest of the World, EU-Africa, and EU-UK] on their trade flows.

description: In previous work [Comm. in Phys. 24, 313 (2014)], we have established the foundations of superluminal relativistic mechanics which is actually a basic step toward the superluminalization of special relativity theory (SRT). In the present paper that is partly based on the aforementioned work, the theoretical maximum value of Lorentz factor γmax  is proposed in order to determine the validity limits of SRT in its proper domain of applicability, and situate the frontiers between relativistic physics and superluminal physics for the conceptual and practical purpose at microscopic and macroscopic levels. Among the consequences of the developed formalism, a helpful formula for luminal and superluminal velocities, and the concept of luxonic energy for massive particles, which may be used as a criterion to investigate the high and ultra-high energy cosmic rays, also another formula is derived to estimate the non-zero photon rest mass.

description: The review highlights with many examples that agricultural trade is not just a function of countries and regions, but especially of food system actors. This in turn calls for more holistic perspectives and analyses, which blend novel insights into local and on-the-ground perspectives, including those of the whole range of stakeholders (e.g., as part of case studies) with global or macro-level data and analyses. We conclude that only the combination of local and macro-perspectives is likely to provide a more convincing assessment of transboundary impacts of trade on sustainable development and human rights, and of interrelationships. Our case studies are therefore connected with a systems-dynamic modelling of global linkages and market dynamics, the latter related to trends, shocks, robustness, food system resilience, and food and nutrition security.

description: Macroautophagy/autophagy dysregulation has been noted in diabetic nephropathy; however, the regulatory mechanisms controlling this process remain unclear. In this study, we showed that SMAD3 (SMAD family member 3), the key effector of TGFB (transforming growth factor beta)-SMAD signaling, induces lysosome depletion via the inhibition of TFEB-dependent lysosome biogenesis. The pharmacological inhibition or genetic deletion of SMAD3 restored lysosome biogenesis activity by alleviating the suppression of TFEB, thereby protecting lysosomes from depletion and improving autophagic flux in renal tubular epithelial cells in diabetic nephropathy. Mechanistically, we found that SMAD3 directly binds to the 3ʹ-UTR of TFEB and inhibits its transcription. Silencing TFEB suppressed lysosome biogenesis and resulted in a loss of the protective effects of SMAD3 inactivation on lysosome depletion under diabetic conditions. In conclusion, SMAD3 promotes lysosome depletion via the inhibition of TFEB-dependent lysosome biogenesis; this may be an important mechanism underlying autophagy dysregulation in the progression of diabetic nephropathy.

description: The goal of WP1 was to provide a review, mapping and characterisation of the broad links between agricultural trade, agricultural and rural investments, environmental sustainability and human well-being. The review included a brief analysis of EU agri-food trade flows, an appraisal and synthesis of the results of past model-based studies and a review of how sustainability goals are currently included in trade rules. In the interactive online workshop (D1.4) that took place on 28-Mar-2022, 10:00–12:00 CET, some key results of the status-quo analysis were discussed with stakeholders and decision-makers, and key questions and issues for further analyses were jointly identified. Overall, we had 113 registrations from 40 countries for the workshop. Actual participation ranged from 70 to 75 participants during the full duration of the workshop. All presentations and the workshop recording are available on the MATS project's Sustainable Agri-Food Hub under the tab 'Knowledge Hub' and sub-tab 'Capacity Building'.

description: To improve the resiliency of designs, particularly for long-lived infrastructure, current engineering practice must be updated to incorporate a range of future climate conditions that are likely to be different from the past. However, a considerable mismatch exists between climate model outputs and the data inputs needed for engineering designs. This paper provides a framework for incorporating climate trends into design standards and applications, including selecting the appropriate climate model source based on the intended application, understanding model performance and uncertainties, addressing differences in temporal and spatial scales, and interpreting results for engineering design. The framework is illustrated through an application to depth-duration-frequency curves, which are commonly used in stormwater design. A change factor method is used to update the curves in a case study of Pittsburgh. Extreme precipitation depth is expected to increase in the future for Pittsburgh for all return periods and durations examined, requiring revised standards and designs. Doubling the return period and using historical, stationary values may enable adequate design for short-duration storms; however, this method is shown to be insufficient to enable protective designs for longer-duration storms.

description: Recrystallization, possibly triggered during heat treatments by plastic strains of only 1–2%, is highly deleterious to Ni-based single-crystal superalloys. Herein, we successfully recover plastic deformation and enhance the supersolvus critical strain for recrystallization by ramping the annealing temperature slowly from 1100 °C to γ′-solvus point. This preempts recrystallization during the subsequent supersolvus solutionizing treatment. The proposed method is validated in single-crystals compressed to 5.9% plastic strain at room temperature. After supersolvus solutionizing, an almost dislocation-free single-crystal with uniformly distributed γ′-precipitates is obtained. The proposed method offers a practical means to bring down the overall expenses of single-crystal turbine blades. An optimized pre-solutionizing recovery heat treatment can elevate the critical plastic strain value for recrystallization in Ni-based superalloy single-crystals to 3 times higher than previously established.

description: A significant challenge in the rational design of organic thermoelectric materials is to realize simultaneously high electrical conductivity and high induced-voltage in response to a thermal gradient, which is represented by the Seebeck coefficient. Conventional wisdom posits that the polymer alone dictates thermoelectric efficiency. Herein, we show that doping — in particular, clustering of dopants within conjugated polymer films — has a profound and predictable influence on their thermoelectric properties. We correlate Seebeck coefficient and electrical conductivity of iodine-doped poly(3-hexylthiophene) and poly[2,5-bis(2-octyldodecyl)pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole-1,4(2H,5H)-dione-3,6-diyl)-alt-(2,2′;5′,2′′;5′′,2′′′-quaterthiophen-5,5′′′-diyl)] films with Kelvin probe force microscopy to highlight the role of the spatial distribution of dopants in determining overall charge transport. We fit the experimental data to a phonon-assisted hopping model and found that the distribution of dopants alters the distribution of the density of states and the Kang–Snyder transport parameter. These results highlight the importance of controlling dopant distribution within conjugated polymer films for thermoelectric and other electronic applications.

description: — Resilience engineering (RE) is most commonly applied at the organisational level, and has historically been associated with safety-critical industries such as nuclear, medical or aviation. This paper explores the application of RE frameworks within software engineering, and investigates resilient performance of the socio-technical system that supports the creation of software. We present a preliminary study based on a secondary analysis of data from previous ethnographic studies of commercial software practice. This analysis uses an RE framework devised for small team practice in safety critical settings. We present and discuss three salient episodes of software practice that illustrate the application of RE principles to software engineering, and suggest how this kind of analysis may benefit software engineering. We present challenges and opportunities based on our experience and propose future research directions.

description: To improve the resiliency of designs, particularly for long-lived infrastructure, current engineering practice must be updated to incorporate a range of future climate conditions that are likely to be different from the past. However, a considerable mismatch exists between climate model outputs and the data inputs needed for engineering designs. This paper provides a framework for incorporating climate trends into design standards and applications, including selecting the appropriate climate model source based on the intended application, understanding model performance and uncertainties, addressing differences in temporal and spatial scales, and interpreting results for engineering design. The framework is illustrated through an application to depth-duration-frequency curves, which are commonly used in stormwater design. A change factor method is used to update the curves in a case study of Pittsburgh. Extreme precipitation depth is expected to increase in the future for Pittsburgh for all return periods and durations examined, requiring revised standards and designs. Doubling the return period and using historical, stationary values may enable adequate design for short-duration storms; however, this method is shown to be insufficient to enable protective designs for longer-duration storms.

description: PARP12 is a member of poly-ADP-ribosyl polymerase (PARPs), which has been characterized for its antiviral function. Yet its physiological implication in adipocytes remains unknown. Here, we report a central function of PARP12 in thermogenic adipocytes. We show that PARP12 is highly expressed in brown adipose tissue and is mainly localized to the mitochondria. Knockdown of PARP12 in vitro reduced UCP1 expression. In parallel, the deficiency of PARP12 reduced mitochondrial respiration in adipocytes, while overexpression of PARP12 reversed these effects.

description: Abstract: This study aims to understand the impact of implementing Christian Religious Education learning using the Jigsaw model on students' participation levels and learning achievement. Data collection regarding the implementation of learning using the Jigsaw model on students' engagement levels and learning outcomes in class VIII-1 of SMP Negeri 2 Sei Bamban was conducted using a Likert-scale questionnaire. The Likert scale was employed to measure the attitudes, opinions, and perceptions of individuals or groups towards observed social phenomena. Data analysis was conducted through four stages: planning, action implementation, evaluation, and reflection. The results of the data analysis indicate that the average score of the learning questionnaire using the Jigsaw model on students' engagement levels and learning outcomes increased from cycle I to cycle III. This increase is reflected in the average score increment of 3.36 in cycle I, 3.42 in cycle II, and 3.47 in cycle III. Additionally, the correlation between teacher guidance/counseling and student study discipline also increased as the learning cycles progressed. This correlation increased from 80.8% in cycle I to 90.1% in cycle II, and reached 91.7% in cycle III.

description: Having a healthy built environment becomes increasingly important, especially under the effects of COVID-19. This paper intends to combine sustainable goals based on climate change with passive design principles to achieve a healthy built environment regarding the building performance of residential buildings. The Yuedao Residential Community in the Lingnan area was taken as an example for the research. Based on relevant standards of healthy buildings, the thermal, light, and acoustic environment requirements were determined. The methods of building performance simulation and on-site measurement were used to quantify the research object environments. Then, the outcomes were obtained based on these standards. As observed, the thermal environment’s adaptive thermal comfort level was level III. It was hot indoors, but the light and acoustic environments met the requirements. Building designs based on a built environment optimized by external shading systems aim to solve problems through building performance simulation and qualitative analysis. After optimization, the thermal environment improved. According to the literature review, this research focused on a healthy built environment with a sustainable passive design in terms of building performance. A research workflow was established that could be used for more practical research, with abundant research methods. The problems were solved to varying degrees, and the Lingnan architectural culture was preserved. Moreover, this research filled the gap in interactive research on healthy built environments with sustainable passive design regarding building performance.
