description: Background Globally, 2-Ethylhexyl-4-methoxycinnamate (EHMC) is one of the most commonly used UV filters in sunscreen and personal care products. Due to its widespread usage, the occurrence of EHMC in the aquatic environment has frequently been documented. In the EU, EHMC is listed under the European Community Rolling Action Plan (CoRAP) as suspected to be persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic (PBT) and as a potential endocrine disruptor. It was included in the first watch list under the Water Framework Directive (WFD) referring to a sediment PNEC of 200 (my)g/kg dry weight (dw). In the light of the ongoing substance evaluation to refine the environmental risk assessment, the objective of this study was to obtain spatio-temporal trends for EHMC in freshwater. We analyzed samples of suspended particulate matter (SPM) retrieved from the German environmental specimen bank (ESB). The samples covered 13 sampling sites from major German rivers, including Rhine, Elbe, and Danube, and have been collected since mid-2000s. Results Our results show decreasing concentrations of EHMC in annual SPM samples during the studied period. In the mid-2000s, the levels for EHMC ranged between 3.3 and 72 ng/g dw. The highest burden could be found in the Rhine tributary Saar. In 2017, we observed a maximum concentration ten times lower (7.9 ng/g dw in samples from the Saar). In 62% of all samples taken in 2017, concentrations were even below the limit of quantification (LOQ) of 2.7 ng/g dw. Conclusions The results indicate a general declining discharge of EHMC into German rivers within the last 15 years and correspond to the market data. Although the measured levels are below the predicted no-effect level (PNEC) in sediment, further research should identify local and seasonal level of exposure, e.g., at highly frequented bathing waters especially in lakes. In addition, possible substitutes as well as their potentially synergistic effects together with other UV filters should be investigated. © The Author(s) 2021

description: Spectral Deferred Correction (SDC) is an iterative method for the numerical solution of ordinary differential equations. It works by refining the numerical solution for an initial value problem by approximately solving differential equations for the error, and can be interpreted as a preconditioned fixed-point iteration for solving the fully implicit collocation problem. We adopt techniques from embedded Runge-Kutta Methods (RKM) to SDC in order to provide a mechanism for adaptive time step size selection and thus increase computational efficiency of SDC. We propose two SDC-specific estimates of the local error that are generic and do not rely on problem specific quantities. We demonstrate a gain in efficiency over standard SDC with fixed step size and compare efficiency favorably against state-of-the-art adaptive RKM.

Macrophages in Atherosclerosis, First or Second Row Players?

description: Macrophages represent a cell type that has been widely described in the context of atherosclerosis since the earliest studies in the 17th century. Their role has long been considered to be preponderant in the onset and aggravation of atherosclerosis, in particular by participating in the establishment of a chronic inflammatory state by the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and by uncontrolled engorgement of lipids resulting in the formation of foam cells and later of the necrotic core. However, recent evidence from mouse models using an elegant technique of tracing vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) during plaque development revealed that resident VSMCs display impressive plastic properties in response to an arterial injury, allowing them to switch into different cell types within the plaque, including mesenchymal-like cells, macrophage-like cells and osteochondrogenic-like cells. In this review, we oppose the arguments in favor or against the influence of macrophages versus VSMCs in all stages of atherosclerosis including pre-atherosclerosis, formation of lipid-rich foam cells, development of the necrotic core and the fibrous cap as well as calcification and rupture of the plaque. We also analyze the relevance of animal models for the investigation of the pathophysiological mechanisms of atherosclerosis in humans, and discuss potential therapeutic strategies targeting either VSMCs or macrophage to prevent the development of cardiovascular events. Overall, although major findings have been made from animal models, efforts are still needed to better understand and therefore prevent the development of atherosclerotic plaques in humans.

description: Despite the advances that have been achieved in developing wound dressings to date, wound healing still remains a challenge in the healthcare system. None of the wound dressings currently used clinically can mimic all the properties of normal and healthy skin. Electrospinning has gained remarkable attention in wound healing applications because of its excellent ability to form nanostructures similar to natural extracellular matrix (ECM). Electrospun dressing accelerates the wound healing process by transferring drugs or active agents to the wound site sooner. This review provides a concise overview of the recent developments in bioactive electrospun dressings, which are effective in treating acute and chronic wounds and can successfully heal the wound. We also discuss bioactive agents used to incorporate electrospun wound dressings to improve their therapeutic potential in wound healing. In addition, here we present commercial dressings loaded with bioactive agents with a comparison between their features and capabilities. Furthermore, we discuss challenges and promises and offer suggestions for future research on bioactive agent-loaded nanofiber membranes to guide future researchers in designing more effective dressing for wound healing and skin regeneration.

description: In the field of medical image segmentation, variant models based on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Visual Transformers (ViTs) as the base modules have been very widely developed and applied. However, CNNs are often limited in their ability to deal with long sequences of information, while the low sensitivity of ViTs to local feature information and the problem of secondary computational complexity limit their development. Recently, the emergence of state-space models (SSMs), especially 2D-selective-scan (SS2D), has had an impact on the longtime dominance of traditional CNNs and ViTs as the foundational modules of visual neural networks. In this paper, we extend the adaptability of SS2D by proposing a High-order Vision Mamba UNet (H-vmunet) for medical image segmentation. Among them, the proposed High-order 2D-selective-scan (H-SS2D) progressively reduces the introduction of redundant information during SS2D operations through higher-order interactions. In addition, the proposed Local-SS2D module improves the learning ability of local features of SS2D at each order of interaction. We conducted comparison and ablation experiments on three publicly available medical image datasets (ISIC2017, Spleen, and CVC-ClinicDB), and the results all demonstrate the strong competitiveness of H-vmunet in medical image segmentation tasks.

description: Coconut leaf weaving, an ancient organic art form, embodies the principles of true mereology and indigenous functional design. This article explores the intersection of coconut leaf weaving with concepts of mereotopology, highlighting its prevalence in regions where the coconut tree thrives, such as Sri Lanka. 

 

The article delves into the druidic heritage of the planet, drawing parallels with Noahite philosophies, and addresses encroachments on truer druidic sciences advocating for nature's equity. It presents coconut leaf weaving as a manifestation of this ethos, deeply intertwined with the ecosystem it originates from.

 

Further, the article discusses representing weaving patterns using abstract group theory, offering a unique perspective on the complexity of coconut leaf architectures. It explores concepts of group theory to conceptualize weaving patterns, providing a novel framework for understanding their intricate structures.

 

Additionally, the article introduces the concept of "leafitecture," akin to twigitecture, utilizing stochastic or classical L-Systems to describe geodesics and topology within coconut leaf-based architectures. Through examples like a spherical hanging bird nest bed, it illustrates the practical application of these concepts in modern designs.

 

Moreover, the article proposes an innovative approach to stress analysis and optimization of coconut leaf architectures using a stochastic lambda calculus framework. By incorporating principles from structural mechanics and stochastic analysis, it offers insights into assessing the structural integrity and optimizing the design of these natural structures.

 

In conclusion, "Mereology of Leafitecture" presents a holistic exploration of coconut leaf-based architectures, weaving together cultural, mathematical, and scientific perspectives. It sheds light on the rich heritage and functional significance of coconut leaf weaving while paving the way for innovative applications in modern architecture and design.
Identifying mechanisms where the addition of carbon to the negative active material maintains dynamic charge acceptance

description: When traditional lead-acid batteries are used in hybrid electric vehicles they suffer from a shortened lifespan. While some carbon added to the negative electrode can alleviate this issue, it does not completely solve it. The research conducted found that a high electrolyte concentration within the negative electrode reduced the charge efficiency of the battery during operation. The research also indicated that the carbon additives improve the charge efficiency by inhibiting the movement of electrolyte into the negative electrode. The findings serve as a basis for future lead-acid battery research and may serve to make hybrid electric vehicles more viable.

description: Herein, a novel catechol sensor made of double-layers of functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes coated zinc oxide on a glassy carbon electrode (fMWCNTs/ZnO@fMWCNTs/GCE) is synthesized. The FTIR spectrum reveals that the ZnO NPs are successfully functionalized on the fMWCNT while SEM analysis shows granular colloids on the surface of ZnO@fMWCNTs nanocomposites. The XRD study confirms the crystalline nature of the ZnO peaks and the ZnO interaction with fMWCNTs structure. The fabricated sensor responds to a wide linear range of CC concentrations from 10 µM to 200 µM and sensitivity of 0.0022 µA/µM.cm2 with a detection and quantification limit of 0.027 µM and 0.092 µM, respectively. Both of the limits are better than previously reported ZnO and fMWCNTs sensors. In addition, the developed fMWCNTs/ZnO@fMWCNTs/GCE demonstrates that the electron transfer is regulated by the adsorption-controlled process and can successfully detect catechol in real water samples with an excellent selectivity against hydroquinone (HQ), phenol (ph), and penta-chlorophenol (p-chph). The developed sensor exhibits satisfactory analytical performance including operational stability of 94.5%, good repeatability with a relative standard deviation (RSD) of 2.15%, and reliable reproducibility of 8 electrodes with an RSD of 3.93%.Research HighlightsAn antifouling double-layered functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (fMWCNTs) coated zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) is synthesized.The nanocomposite (fMWCNTs/ZnO@fMWCNTs) was fabricated using a one-step in-situ adsorption method.In the new design of the fabricated nanocomposite, the diffusion of electrons is improved by the adsorption control mechanism.The developed sensor is highly sensitive and selective for sensing catechol.It exhibits stable and reproducible responses for practical and real analysis of catechol.

description: Gaussian Boson Sampling is a popular method for experimental demonstrations of quantum advantage, but many subtleties remain in fully understanding its theoretical underpinnings. An important component in the theoretical arguments for approximate average-case hardness of sampling is anticoncentration, which is a second-moment property of the output probabilities. In Gaussian Boson Sampling these are given by hafnians of generalized circular orthogonal ensemble matrices. In a companion work [arXiv:2312.08433], we develop a graph-theoretic method to study these moments and use it to identify a transition in anticoncentration. In this work, we find a recursive expression for the second moment using these graph-theoretic techniques. While we have not been able to solve this recursion by hand, we are able to solve it numerically exactly, which we do up to Fock sector $2n = 80$. We further derive new analytical results about the second moment. These results allow us to pinpoint the transition in anticoncentration and furthermore yield the expected linear cross-entropy benchmarking score for an ideal (error-free) device.

description: Background: Core outcome sets (COS) are lists of consensus-determined outcomes to be measured and reported in all clinical research studies within a disease area. While including patients and families in COS development to improve their relevance and applicability to patient values is key, there is limited literature documenting practical barriers and facilitators to successful patient engagement in COS development. In this paper, as researchers and patient partners, we provide a resource for COS developers to meaningfully and effectively engage patients and families. Main body: To establish a consensus-based COS for children with two inherited metabolic diseases (medium-chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency and phenylketonuria), we conducted an evidence review, Delphi survey, and workshop. Two adult patient partner co-investigators co-developed the study protocol, co-designed strategies to address challenges with incorporating patient perspectives, and led all patient engagement activities, including communication with a group of family advisors. Seven adult family advisors received training about COS development and subsequently contributed to Delphi survey development, outcome definitions, the consensus workshop, and selection of outcome measurement instruments. Patient partner co-investigators and family advisors were essential to the successful design, conduct, and completion of the two COS. Patient partner co-investigators supported the understanding, inclusion and engagement of family advisors, and helped develop accessible tools to determine patient-oriented outcome measurement instruments. Patient partner co-investigators and family advisors collaborated with the study team to co-develop surveys, modify technical language, and recruit participants to the study. Together, we addressed challenges to patient engagement in COS development such as unfamiliarity with study methods, comprehensibility of materials and ongoing engagement, and power imbalances between team members. Conclusion: Our approach to patient and family engagement in COS development for two rare conditions for children was feasible and considered valuable by all study team members, including patients and family members, in improving the relevance of the deliverable to patients. This approach to patient engagement in developing COS can be applied to other paediatric disease contexts, allowing patient and family perspectives to influence the direction of future studies to develop COS.

description: The scattering of laser light from nanometre-scale gold and silver particles is extremely sensitive to chemicals on the metal surface. The spectrum of the scattered light can therefore be used to sense a wide range of chemicals, with potential applications in cancer diagnostics, environmental monitoring and detection of food contaminants. This research demonstrated the feasibility of a micro-miniaturised optical fibre probe with improved sensitivity. A robust surface chemistry was also developed for sensing difficult target molecules at ultra-low concentrations. These innovations have paved the way for future research into practical sensing applications.

The Application of Neural Models for Software
Creators: name: Lin, Guanjun
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: The thesis proposes methods which apply deep artificial neural networks for detecting software vulnerabilities in the scenarios where there are insufficient labeled vulnerability data available. The thesis investigates different approaches by utilizing the novel features of neural networks and the latest techniques from the field of machine learning to compensate for the lack of labeled data and facilitate the effective learning of latent vulnerable code patterns. Using the proposed methods, software code auditors can quickly pinpoint the exact location of potentially vulnerable functions, which helps to improve the accuracy and efficiency of code inspection.

description: Formaldehyde is a highly reactive compound that participates in multiple spontaneous reactions, but these are mostly deleterious and damage cellular components. In contrast, the spontaneous condensation of formaldehyde with tetrahydrofolate (THF) has been proposed to contribute to the assimilation of this intermediate during growth on C1 carbon sources such as methanol. However, the in vivo rate of this condensation reaction is unknown and its possible contribution to growth remains elusive. Here, we used microbial platforms to assess the rate of this condensation in the cellular environment. We constructed Escherichia coli strains lacking the enzymes that naturally produce 5,10-methylene-THF. These strains were able to grow on minimal medium only when equipped with a sarcosine (N-methyl-glycine) oxidation pathway that sustained a high cellular concentration of formaldehyde, which spontaneously reacts with THF to produce 5,10-methylene-THF. We used flux balance analysis to derive the rate of the spontaneous condensation from the observed growth rate. According to this, we calculated that a microorganism obtaining its entire biomass via the spontaneous condensation of formaldehyde with THF would have a doubling time of more than three weeks. Hence, this spontaneous reaction is unlikely to serve as an effective route for formaldehyde assimilation.

description: The rate of aging has increased globally during recent decades and has led to a rising burden of age-related diseases such as cardiovascular disease (CVD). At the molecular level, epigenetic modifications have been shown recently to alter gene expression during the life course and impair cellular function. In this regard, several CVD risk factors, such as lifestyle and environmental factors, have emerged as key factors in epigenetic modifications within the cardiovascular system. In this study, we attempted to summarized recent evidence related to epigenetic modification, inflammation response, and CVD in older adults as well as the effect of lifestyle modification as a preventive strategy in this age group. Recent evidence showed that lifestyle and environmental factors may affect epigenetic mechanisms, such as DNA methylation, histone acetylation, and miRNA expression. Several substances or nutrients such as selenium, magnesium, curcumin, and caffeine (present in coffee and some teas) could regulate epigenetics. Similarly, physical inactivity, alcohol consumption, air pollutants, psychological stress, and shift working are well-known modifiers of epigenetic patterns. Understanding the exact ways that lifestyle and environmental factors could affect the expression of genes could help to influence the time of incidence and severity of aging-associated diseases. This review highlighted that a healthy lifestyle throughout the life course, such as a healthy diet rich in fibers, vitamins, and essential elements, and specific fatty acids, adequate physical activity and sleep, smoking cessation, and stress control, could be useful tools in preventing epigenetic changes that lead to impaired cardiovascular function.

description: Consumers may intend to consume sustainable products, but they often do not do so- a phenomenon typically described as the intention -behaviour gap caused by behavioural control. The aim of this research is to grow understanding in the application of behavioural control and its influence on consumption choice favouring sustainable products. Utilising a combination of within- and between-scenarios experimental approach, this research investigates Malaysian consumers' intention to purchase sustainable products under varying degrees of behavioural control. The findings from this research provide nuanced recommendations to manipulate behavioural control and to facilitate an ideal shift towards more sustainable consumption behaviour.
