Refractive indices of layers and optical simulations of Cu(In,Ga)Se2 solar cells

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

Cu(In,Ga)Se2 -based solar cells have reached efficiencies close to 23%. Further knowledge-driven improvements require accurate determination of the material properties. Here, we present refractive indices for all layers in Cu(In,Ga)Se2 solar cells with high efficiency. The optical bandgap of Cu(In,Ga)Se2 does not depend on the Cu content in the explored composition range, while the absorption coefficient value is primarily determined by the Cu content. An expression for the absorption spectrum is proposed, with Ga and Cu compositions as parameters. This set of parameters allows accurate device simulations to understand remaining absorption and carrier collection losses and develop strategies to improve performances.
SH1266298.09FU

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

UNITE provides a unified way for delimiting, identifying, communicating, and working with DNA-based Species Hypotheses (SH). All fungal ITS sequences in the international nucleotide sequence databases are clustered to approximately the species level by applying a set of dynamic distance values (<0.5 - 3.0%). All species hypotheses are given a unique, stable name in the form of a DOI, and their taxonomic and ecological annotations are verified through distributed, web-based third-party annotation efforts. SHs are connected to a taxon name and its classification as far as possible (phylum, class, order, etc.) by taking into account identifications for all sequences in the SH. An automatically or manually designated sequence is chosen to represent each such SH. These sequences are released (https://unite.ut.ee/repository.php) for use by the scientific community in, for example, local sequence similarity searches and next-generation sequencing analysis pipelines. The system and the data are updated automatically as the number of public fungal ITS sequences grows.

Abstract Dompu District locates in Province of West Nusa Tenggara that was characterized as dry climate. The climate change also contributed to exacerbating the effect of drought in that area. Sugar cane farming was introduced to this district on 2015 to supply sugar on east of Indonesia. This study aimed to descript the partnership between sugar company and small farmer on dry land sugar cane farming in Dompu District, West Nusa Tenggara Province. This research was conducted by interviewed informants of the officer of sugar cane farmer groups. The result shown that the type of partnership between sugar company and sugar cane farmer was pattern of plasma-nucleus. The sugar company as the nucleus of partnership gave a free technical assistant and sugar cane seed. Sugar cane farmer obligate to manage the farming according to instruction of technical assistant and financed sugar cane farming cost but seed, i.e. cost of worker, fertilizer, pesticide, transportation of sugar cane and cost of tractor rent. Sugar cane farming in dry climate land of Dompu District was able to contribute farmer family income.
Mothers’ perceptions of primary health-care providers: thematic analysis of responses to open-ended survey questions

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

General practitioners and maternal, child and family health nurses have a central role in postpartum primary health care for women and their infants. Positive client-provider relationships are particularly important for women experiencing mental health problems or unsettled infant behaviour. However, little is known about their experiences of postnatal primary health care. The study aimed to describe views of postnatal primary health care among women completing a residential early parenting programme and to identify potential strategies to enhance provider-patient interactions. Participants (n = 138) were women admitted with their infants to a private or a public early parenting service in Melbourne, Australia. Women completed a detailed self-report survey, including open-ended questions about experiences of primary health-care services, and a structured psychiatric interview to diagnose anxiety and depression. Survey responses were analysed thematically. Womens’ experiences of primary health care were influenced by their perceptions of provider competence and the quality of interactions. While similar positive characteristics of doctor and nurse care were valued, medical and nursing practices were judged in different ways. Women described GPs who listened, understood and were thorough as providing good care, and maternal, child and family health nurses were valued for providing support, advice and encouragement. Threats to therapeutic relationships with doctors included feeling rushed during consultations, believing that GPs were not mental health-care providers and the clinician not being ‘good’ with the infant; with nurses, problems included feeling judged or given advice that was inconsistent or lacked an evidence-base. Postpartum primary health care will be improved by unhurried consultations, empathic recognition, encouragement, evidence-informed guidance and absence of criticism.
Studies on Canine Pancreatic Secretion

Field: Veterinary (Health Sciences)

THE RESPONSE TO HISTAMINE. The pancreatic response to histamine and to control injections of secretin have been studied in 8 dogs. To exclude any fallacy due to activation of the endogenous secretin mechanism by gastric acid, 3 of the dogs had total gastrectomies carried out, and 5 dogs had gastrostomies through which the stomach could be kept empty. Histamine is a potent stimulator of pancreatic secretion in the absence of the endogenous secretin mechanism. The volume, bicarbonate concentration, and total bicarbonate output in response to histamine are on the average about 70% of the response to secretin in the doses used, and on occasion may even be greater than it. The concentrations of chloride and nitrogen in response to histamine are about 2-J times the corresponding concentrations in response to secretin, but the total outputs are approximately equal. The profiles of the responses to histamine and secretin are very similar as regards latent period, duration of response, and the timing of the peak of the response. 'Histamine is a true pancreatic secretagogue. Its action cannot be explained by activation of the endogenous secretin mechanism by gastric HCl, by direct secretin release, or by lowering of the threshold to secretin. It is not due to the concomitant secretion of bile, to vasodilatation, to lowering of the blood pressure, or to an increase in blood, flow through the pancreas. THE EFFECT OF ATROPINE. The effect of atropine on the response to histamine has been studied on 3 dogs with total gastrectomies and 4 dogs with gastrostomies. Atropine inhibits the volume and bicarbonate output in response to histamine and tnis inhibition may be complete when one hour is allowed to elapse between the injection of atropine and the subsequent injection of histamine. When an interval of only half an hour is allowed, inhibition does not invariably occur. The effect of atropine on the pancreatic response to secretin has been studied in one dog. Atropine produces a small but important reduction in the volume response to secretin. Atropine produces a significant increase in the bicarbonate concentration, but little change in the total bicarsbonate output in response to secretin. Both the concentration and total output of nitrogen are significantly decreased by atropine. The concentration and total output of chloride were not significantly affected by atropine. Vagotomy reduced the inhibitory effect of atropine on the concentration and total output of nitrogen to a significant degree, and reduced the increase in the bicarbonate concentration. Atropine appears to act directly on the secretory cell as well as blocking the secretory fibres of the vagus. (Abstract shortened by ProQuest.).
Role of Immunoglobulin G (IgG) Against N-protein of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2) in Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID19) Clinical Outcomes

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

RATIONALE: The Nucleocapsid Protein (N Protein) of severe acute respiratory syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARSCoV2) is located in the viral core. Immunoglobulin G (IgG) targeting N protein is detectable in the serum of infected patients. The effect of high titers of IgG against N-protein on clinical outcomes of SARS-CoV2 disease has not been described. METHODS: We studied 400 RT-PCR confirmed SARS-CoV2 patients to determine independent factors associated with poor outcomes, including MICU admission, prolonged MICU stay, and hospital admissions, and in-hospital mortality. We also measured serum IgG against the N protein and correlated its concentrations with clinical outcomes. RESULTS: We found that several factors, including Charlson comorbidity Index (CCI), high levels of IL6, and presentation with dyspnea were associated with poor clinical outcomes. It was shown that higher CCI and higher IL6 levels were independently associated with in-hospital mortality. Anti-N protein IgG was detected in the serum of 55 (55%) patients at the time of admission. A high concentration of antibodies, defined as signal to cut off ratio (S/Co)> 1.5 (75 percentile of all measurements), was found in 25 (25%) patients. The multivariable logistic regression models showed that between being an African American, higher CCI, lymphocyte counts, and S/Co ratio> 1.5, only S/Co ratio were independently associated with MICU admission and longer length of stay in hospital. (Figure 1) CONCLUSION: This study recommends that titers of IgG targeting N-protein of SARS-CoV2 at admission is a prognostic factor for the clinical course of disease and should be measured in all patients with SARS-CoV2 infection.
Aloha-Type Random Access in Multi-channel Multi-radio Wireless Networks

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Channel assignment has become a very important research area nowadays. In this paper, we study the existence of Nash Equilibria of selfish channel assignment in Aloha-type multi-channel multi-radio (MCMR) wireless networks. Our analysis shows that selfishness leads to balanced channel assignment in a single collision domain, while usually unbalanced solutions in multiple collision domains. We also investigate the price of anarchy and the price of randomness analytically. Efficient algorithms are proposed to perform channel assignment in MCMR wireless networks.

Most of the world treats dietary supplements like a prescription drugs. In Latin America, Asia, and Europe, dietary supplements must show the efficacy and manufacturers must meet quality standards as the manufacturing of prescription drugs.
Al-Fawaz et al. 141 Investigating Factors Influencing the Decision Making Process for ERP Adoption and Implementation INVESTIGATING FACTORS INFLUENCING THE DECISION MAKING PROCESS FOR ERP ADOPTION AND IMPLEMENTATION: AN EXP

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

The rapid developments in Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) have resulted into a borderless business environment along with an amplified market competition. Traversing through such a trend globally, organisations have significantly focused on adopting and implementing Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems to automate their prime business processes, enhance organisational productivity with lower costs and prompt service delivery to fulfil consumer demands. Thus, ERP systems are considered as a principal source to provide imperative information vital for strategic decision making process. On the contrary, ERP systems adoption and implementation is also highly considered as a challenging and expensive process that not only requires rigorous efforts but also demands to have an exhaustive investigation of influential factors that are critical to the adoption and implementation of ERP systems. A plethora of research studies have been theorised exploring factors influencing the decision making process for ERP adoption and implementation; however, the authors claim that these studies are not filtered comprehensively in terms of the different perspectives. Notwithstanding, the implications of such research have yet to be assessed, leaving scope for timeliness and novel research. This paper thus focuses on the ERP critical success factors from five
Pater and the Lacedaemonian Ideal

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

In his neglected essay ‘Lacedaemon’, Pater offers an account of ancient Sparta which draws parallels between the training of Sparta youth and the nineteenth century public schools. The piece epitomises the subtlety of Pater’s prose technique and his handling of ideas. While sympathising with, and even celebrating, aspects of ancient Sparta life and their Victorian analogues, he demurs from them and nudges his readers into doubts about both.
Transnational mobility, art markets, and the city: An analysis of the role of hypermobile creative professionals in the emergence of new artistic centers

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

The emergence of new regional art markets has increasingly challenged the traditional dominance of Western Europe and North America over the last two decades. Cities such as Dubai, Singapore, and Hong Kong have become significant hubs that house global auction houses and contemporary museums, and host major art events. This study examines how hypermobile creative professionals function in the growth of these emerging art centers. It purposes to elucidate how the transnational mobility of these professionals influences the geographical dynamics of the global art market. The study&rsquo;s methodology entailed qualitative fieldwork conducted in Istanbul, Doha, Singapore, and Hong Kong, along with in-depth interviews with wide-ranging actors in the art worlds of these cities, including artists, curators, dealers, and collectors. The study&rsquo;s findings reveal that these actors contribute to the construction of the reputations of these metropolises emerging as art hubs by voting with their feet for the next upcoming art center and actively engaging in the transformation of the local art markets. This study attracts attention to the ways in which the regulation of human mobility affects the journeys and practices of art professionals. In so doing, it proposes a novel lens through which to apprehend the ongoing disparities in the global art market and grasp how historical hegemonies persist amidst continuous calls for more expansive diversity and inclusivity in the art world.
Molecular Network Pathway Of ERBB In Diffuse-Type Gastric Cancer, Mesenchymal Stem Cells And Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is related to malignancy and metastasis in cancer. The molecular networks including tyrosine kinases are altered in gastric cancer (GC). This study aims to reveal the role of ERBBs (erb-b2 receptor tyrosine kinases) in EMT, and generate the molecular network pathway of ERBBs in diffusetype GC and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). The expression of ERBB genes was analyzed in MSCs and diffuse-type GC which has mesenchymal characteristics compared to intestinal-type GC. The signaling and molecular network of ERBB was analyzed using several databases, including cBioPortal for Cancer Genomics, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), BioGRID and VaProS. ERBB2 and ERBB3 gene expression were up-regulated in diffuse-type GC compared to MSCs. The ERBB3 molecular network includes epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), cadherin 1 (CDH1), catenin beta 1 (CTNNB1) and EPH receptor A5 (EPHA5). These results demonstrate the importance of the ERBB network in cancer signaling, and revealed a ERBB3 network pathway model in diffuse-type GC and MSCs, and EMT.

A multidisciplinary investigation of the application of dynamic modeling to the study of telecommunications development in Canada

Field: Decision Sciences (Social Sciences)

The potential usefulness of dynamic system models in the evaluation of the development of telecommunications has been investigated by a multidisciplinary team. A dynamic model of northwest Ontario was constructed and tested, while some work has been done towards the construction of models of individual communities within this same region. All these models are based on extensive study and field work by the multidisciplinary team. A major feature is a detailed discussion of how sustained multidisciplinary cooperation was developed during the course of the project, with a special emphasis on the informal coordination appropriate to the conduct of such work, which was on a relatively small overall scale, but involved six different disciplines in a university environment.
“Would your level of disgust change?” Accounting for variant reactions to fatal violence against women on social media

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

The murders of Sarah Everard and Sabina Nessa, occurring in similar contexts in London over the course of 2021, prompted renewed public discourse around violence against women and the nature of stranger-perpetrated murder of women in British society. It also provided the opportunity to analyze our responses to such crimes as a community and, in particular, our expectations and assumptions about who is committing fatal violence against women. In this study, Facebook comments (n = 414) pertaining to the first identification of the alleged murderers in each of the above cases were analyzed for sentiment. This analysis revealed major differences in the levels of shock and/or surprise at Everard’s murderer (a police officer) being identified, compared with Nessa’s alleged killer (a migrant). The article assesses the divergent responses in each case and explores the reasons that allegations of migrant-committed crime appear to attract significantly lower rates of resistance than allegations of police crime.
Anticancer Activity of "Ziziphus jujuba" - A Review

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Ziziphus jujuba Mill. (Z. jujube) is a conventional plant that has a long history of usage in nutrients and the therapeutic interventions of a wide range of ailments. It grows mainly in South and East Asia, and also in Australia and Europe. Mounting data supports the health advantages of Z. jujuba, including anticancer, anti-inflammation, anti-obesity, antioxidant, and hepato- and gastrointestinal protective characteristics. Chemotherapy, particularly with cis-diamminedichloroplatinium (CDDP, cisplatin) and its derivatives, is commonly used to treat cancer. Although it is an effective therapy for human tumors, drug resistance impedes successful treatment. A better knowledge of the processes and develop strategies to address chemoresistance can improve patient outcomes dramatically. Numerous researchers have recently focused their attention on the increasing occurrence of numerous types of malignancies worldwide. The anticancer efficacy of Z. jujuba was discussed in this review study.
Data from JAZF1: A Metabolic Regulator of Sensitivity to a Polyamine-Targeted Therapy

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

<div>Abstract<p>Identifying and leveraging unique points of metabolic dysregulation in different disease settings is vital for safe and effective incorporation of metabolism-targeted therapies in the clinic. In addition, it has been shown identification of master metabolic transcriptional regulators (MMTR) of individual metabolic pathways, and how they relate to the disease in question, may offer the key to understanding therapeutic response. In prostate cancer, we have previously demonstrated polyamine biosynthesis and the methionine cycle were targetable metabolic vulnerabilities. However, the MMTRs of these pathways, and how they affect treatment, have yet to be explored. We sought to characterize differential sensitivity of prostate cancer to polyamine- and methionine-targeted therapies by identifying novel MMTRs. We began by developing a gene signature from patient samples, which can predict response to metabolic therapy, and further uncovered a MMTR, JAZF1. We characterized the effects of <i>JAZF1</i> overexpression on prostate cancer cells, basally and in the context of treatment, by assessing mRNA levels, proliferation, colony formation capability, and key metabolic processes. Lastly, we confirmed the relevance of our findings in large publicly available cohorts of prostate cancer patient samples. We demonstrated differential sensitivity to polyamine and methionine therapies and identified JAZF1 as a MMTR of this response.</p>Implications:<p>We have shown JAZF1 can alter sensitivity of cells and its expression can segregate patient populations into those that do, or do not highly express polyamine genes, leading to better prediction of response to a polyamine targeting therapy.</p></div>
