title: Supplementary Material for: The Efficacy of Posttreatment with Synthetic C-Reactive Protein in Murine Bacterial Peritonitis via Activation of FcγRI-Expressing Kupffer Cells

description: Pretreatment with synthetic C-reactive protein (CRP), a functional CRP peptide, has the potential to augment macrophage phagocytosis by bacterial challenge. However, the posttreatment is clinically ideal. We investigated the efficacy of posttreatment with synthetic CRP on murine cecal ligation and puncture (CLP), focusing on liver macrophages. Mice received CLP, and 1 h later, synthetic CRP or saline was intraperitoneally administered. Posttreatment with synthetic CRP increased the murine survival after CLP. It reduced viable bacterial counts in the liver 24 h after CLP with an increase in the number of Kupffer cells but not monocyte-derived liver macrophages. Posttreatment with synthetic CRP increased the phagolytic activity of Kupffer cells against <i>Escherichia coli</i> (<i>E. coli</i>) as well as capsulated <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> at 3 h after CLP. Synthetic CRP therapy augmented TNF production by <i>E. coli</i>-phagocytosing Kupffer cells, resulting in an increase in tissue TNF levels in the liver at 24 h. Kupffer cells substantially expressed FcγRI, which is a ligand of CRP, and their FcγRI expression was further increased after CLP. In contrast, synthetic CRP therapy affected neither the phagocytic function of monocyte-derived liver macrophages (showing a weak FcγRI expression) nor their TNF production. Depletion of Kupffer cells in mice inhibited these beneficial effects of synthetic CRP in CLP mice. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> Posttreatment with synthetic CRP effectively improves murine bacterial peritonitis via the activation of phagocytosis of FcγRI-expressing Kupffer cells.

title: Mental Health, Migration and the Chinese Mega-City, 2016-2019

description: The data has been generated by ethnographic observations, interviews and interactions with migrant workers in two sites in Shanghai in 2017/2018: Songjiang District on the south-western outskirts, and the inner-city Huangpu District, in proximity to some of the city’s most famous tourist attractions, such as the Bund or Nanjing Road. Ethnography, with its focus on everyday experience, can yield significant insights into understanding migrant mental health in contexts where signs of severe mental distress remain largely imperceptible, and more generally, into how stresses and strains are lived through the spaces, times and affective atmospheres of the city. Migrant ethnography can help us reconsider the oft-made connection between everyday stress and mental ill health. In this research, drawing on field evidence in central and peripheral Shanghai, we highlight the importance of attending to the forms of spatial and temporal agency through which migrants actively manage the ways in which the city affects their subjectivity. These everyday subjective practices serve to problematize the very concept of ‘mental health’, enabling us to engage in a critical dialogue with sociological and epidemiological research that assesses migrant mental health states through the lens of the vulnerability or resilience of this social group, often reducing citiness to a series of environmental ‘stressors’.

title: Fetal Tissue Annotation Dataset FeTA

description: The Fetal Tissue Annotation Dataset (FeTA) consist of manually annotated, T2-weighted, super-resolution reconstructed fetal cerebral magnetic resonance images. It is a mixture of normally developing cases and pathologies. The dataset is a valuable source for developing automated image segmentation algorithms as it provides open source MRI data and expert manual annotations, which is a particularly time consuming process. Each fetal brains were labeled for 7 tissue categories: grey matter, white matter, external CSF spaces, ventricle system, deep gray matter, cerebellum and brainstem. From May 2021, access to the FeTA dataset is only possible on the Synapse platform. We released the second version with 80 cases, which must be used for participants of the MICCAI Fetal Tissue Annotation Challenge in 2021. Please visit the following sites for further information: https://feta-2021.grand-challenge.org/ https://www.synapse.org/#!Synapse:syn25649159/wiki/610007 <strong>Background</strong> Congenital disorders are one of the leading causes of infant mortality worldwide. Recently, fetal MRI has started to emerge as a valuable tool for investigating the neurological development of fetuses with congenital disorders in order to aid in prenatal planning. Moreover, fetal MRI is a powerful tool to portray the complex neurodevelopmental events during human gestation, which remain to be completely characterized. Automated segmentation and quantification of the highly complex and rapidly changing brain morphology in MRI data would improve the diagnostic process, as manual segmentation is both time consuming and prone to human error and inter-rater variability. The automatic segmentation of the developing human brain would be a first step in being able to perform such an analysis. The FeTA Dataset and the Challenge we plan to organize are important steps in the development of reproducible methods of analyzing high resolution MR images of the developing fetal brain. Such new algorithms will have the potential to better understand the underlying causes of congenital disorders and ultimately to support decision-making and prenatal planning.

title: Modified landscapes: visitor’s perceptions of conservation in a natural reserve invaded by exotic conifers

description: Biological invasions are considered a major problem for nature conservation globally. Natural resource managers make immense efforts to control invasions. However, many management strategies depend on public support. In this study, we assessed how recreational users perceive the conservation level of a protected area where the native forest has been altered by the introduction of the fire-adapted <i>Pinus radiata</i>, wildfires and the resulting invasion. We also analyzed how users’ definition of exotic species related to their perceptions and support for management actions. We found that 75% of respondents perceived the area to be well conserved, although 76% provided the correct definition for exotic species. Local, overnight and exotic-species knowledgeable users perceived the area’s conservation level to be lower than their counterparts. Also, local and knowledgeable people reported more support for management strategies. We interpret that the public’s positive perception of a heavily invaded landscape can be linked to bio-cultural homogenization.

title: The impact of nature documentaries on public environmental preferences and willingness to pay: entropy balancing and the blue planet II effect

description: In this study, the discrete choice experiment approach was employed in a survey of the Scottish general public to analyze how respondents make tradeoffs between blue growth potential and marine ecosystem service delivery associated with the Mingulay cold water reef complex. Results indicate a higher willingness to pay for management options associated with the highest possible levels of marine litter control followed by the highest possible levels of fish health. Using entropy balancing, a multivariate reweighting method to produce balanced samples in observational studies, we also test the impact that having watched the BBC Blue Planet II documentary series may have had on individuals’ willingness to support marine conservation activity. Whether or not respondents had seen the BBC Blue Planet II series was found to have a significant impact on people’s preferences. Despite this, the willingness to pay (WTP) does not differ between the two groups, suggesting that such documentaries may impact preferences but not the final action of WTP. It is argued that the entropy weighting approach can be a useful tool in discrete choice modeling when the researcher is concerned with estimating differences in preferences between a group of interest and a comparison group.

title: TOA and surface cloud radiative kernels calculated with RRTM, v1

description: These cloud radiative kernels (CRK) are calculated with RRTM, with meteorological variables from ERA-interim as inputs. The file format is netcdf4, and was created by python. To read these files, any software supporting netcdf4 can be used. Longwave cloud radiative effect at surface is primarily decided by cloud base properties, while top-of-atmosphere (TOA) cloud radiative effect is primarily decided by cloud top properties, so the standard version of surface CRK is a function of latitude, longitude, month, cloud optical thickness (τ) and cloud base pressure (CBP), and the TOA CRK is a function of latitude, longitude, month,τ and cloud top pressure (CTP). Considering that the cloud property histograms provided by climate models are functions of CTP instead of CBP at present, we created a set of surface CRK on CTP-τ cloud fraction histograms using the statistical relationship between CTP, CBP and τ from collocated CloudSat-MODIS observations. There are five individual files. "SFC_CRK_CBP1.nc" is for surface CRK on CBP-τ histograms, "SFC_CRK_CTP1.nc" is for surface CRK on CTP-τ histograms, and "TOA_CRK_CTP1.nc" is for TOA CRK on CTP-τ histograms. The atmospheric CRK can be calculated as the difference between "TOA_CRK_CTP1.nc" and "SFC_CRK_CTP1.nc". The other two files denote separate CRK for ice and liquid clouds. Notes: (1) this dataset is not the final version for publication, so it might be renewed in the future. (2) To avoid missing values, the value of CBP/CTP is set to be the lowest level near surface for cloud bins with CBP/CTP greater than surface air temperature (cloud base or top is below surface).

title: Supplementary Material for: Application of Cellular Resolution Full-Field Optical Coherence Tomography in vivo for the Diagnosis of Skin Tumours and Inflammatory Skin Diseases: A Pilot Study

description: <b><i>Background:</i></b> Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has been shown to provide non-invasive diagnosis of common skin neoplasms, especially basal cell carcinoma. OCT produces a cross-sectional view of the tissue, similar to a traditionally sectioned histopathological view, but the resolution of conventional OCT is low and thus limits clinical application. <b><i>Objectives:</i></b> This study aimed to investigate the application ability of a full-field (FF)OCT system which was newly developed to scan the skin at the cellular level. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Patients with skin tumours or inflammatory lesions warranting biopsy were consecutively enrolled. All lesions underwent clinical, dermoscopic, and OCT assessment, followed by routine biopsy. The adjacent normal skin was scanned for comparison. OCT images were interpreted (blinded to the biopsy results) and then compared with the histopathological diagnosis. <b><i>Results:</i></b> A total of 111 patients with 115 lesions completed the protocol, including 80 skin tumours, 28 inflammatory diseases, and 7 other diseases. Of the OCT images, 43.5% were of good quality and show expected features. Identifiable features of actinic keratosis, Bowen’s disease, basal cell carcinoma, extramammary Paget’s disease, seborrheic keratosis, large cell acanthoma, bullous pemphigoid, interface dermatitis, lichenoid tissue reaction, and psoriasis were demonstrated. Lesions are located deeply, and so some features were out of the field of view, accounting for 40.0% (46/115). <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> This study expanded the ability of FFOCT for the clinical diagnosis of various skin conditions. This new optical technique can clearly visualise skin lesions located in the epidermis and upper dermis. It provided an effective way to perform digital skin biopsy in superficial skin diseases.

title: Active learning using a smartphone app: analysing land use patterns in Cork City, Ireland

description: Opportunities to deploy digital technologies to research agendas and active learning in tertiary education are becoming more widespread. Despite this, many research techniques are still taught using traditional “pen-and-paper” methodologies. In this article, we report on a strategy for integrating mobile technology into our large (275+) module <i>GG1015 Applied Geography</i>, via the use of smartphones and the ESRI Collector for ArcGIS app. Focus groups identified three common themes among students in response to using this mobile technology in geographic research. Our findings suggest that digital technologies can enhance active learning in geography for all students. Similarly, such activities should not only be reserved for small groups, and can be up-scaled for larger class sizes, particularly when using new technologies. Finally, we illustrate how the use of technology in a group setting can foster teamwork, peer-to-peer learning, and positively reinforce the uptake of digital technology in geographic fieldwork.

title: Creative approach to tourism through creative approach to didactics

description: The relationships between creativity and tourism are commonly discussed. The article, rooted in the experience of post-soviet countries, presents an experiment carried out within the course “Creativity in tourism” at the University of Łódź, Poland. The objective was to perform two psychometric tests to verify the level of students’ creativity: Test of Creative Imagination and “Creative <i>versus</i> Imitative Attitude Scale Test”. The aim was to answer the research question: may the introduction of the element(s) of creative pedagogy impact creativity of students. The main objective of this paper is to prove the necessity of taking similar actions and including methods and tools from the creative pedagogy framework in teaching processes at the academic level. The students achieved a high increase of fluent thinking. The high rate of the course given by the students may encourage looking for new solutions within the scope of stimulating creativity. The experiment thus constitutes an example of the introduction of a subject satisfying the needs of a dynamic job market and tourism into the academic teaching program.
