Development, Mobility, and Human Rights: Rhetoric and Reality

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Recent years have seen mobility and migration and their links to development high on the global policy agenda and discourse. Yet, the missing dimension is the linkage of these with the rights of migrant workers. Development now focuses on freedom, choices and capabilities of people. It is crucially dependent on realization of human rights of all persons including migrants. Human rights cover both universal human rights, core labour rights and other workplace rights of migrants. Mobility rights are part of overall human rights which apply to all human beings irrespective of their migratory status. Denial of rights means that the individual migrant has lack of access to realization of capabilities and entitlements. Recent State approaches do not promote the development–mobility–rights nexus with their preoccupation with sovereignty, State security, and irregular migration, and reliance on control-oriented migration policies. This article analyses the various interactions of migration and development, and the impact on rights. It reviews some recent approaches to international mobility regimes and their role in strengthening the development–mobility–rights nexus. The article highlights the gap between policy and practice and the role of a rights-based policy in promoting the development–mobility–rights nexus.
Gate-Controlled Sum-Frequency Vibrational Spectroscopy\nfor Probing Charged Oxide/Water Interfaces

Field: Chemistry (Physical Sciences)

The rich chemistry\nof oxide/aqueous interfaces originates from\nthe interfacial layer formed by surface charges and adjoining water\nmolecules. Yet not much is clear about such layers, because they are\ndifficult to access, and measurements unavoidably collect signals\nfrom the diffuse layer nearby, which is perturbed by the surface potential\nextending into the bulk water. Here we show that gating of a semiconductor/oxide/water\njunction can effectively vary the surface charge density at the oxide/water\ninterface but keep the surface potential low and barely varying, allowing\neffective removal of the diffuse layer contribution. With sum-frequency\nvibrational spectroscopy on a silicon/silica/deionized-water model\njunction, the variation of the bonded layer water structure in response\nto surface charging can be readily detected. This new scheme is generally\napplicable to all oxide/water interfaces, providing opportunities\nfor future investigations at a deeper molecular level.

China’s “Going Out” Strategy in Southeast Asia: Case Studies of the Automobile and Electronics Sectors

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

In view of China's "going out" programme, this article argues that mainland Chinese firms have not made significant breakthroughs in the Southeast Asian automobile sector, primarily because of a competitive and still consolidating marketplace, various national regulations of Southeast Asian countries and the need to dovetail their own corporate goals with those of their Southeast Asian partners. Meanwhile, mainland Chinese firms have made major advances in the Southeast Asian electronics sector by offering low prices and high-quality products and services. In addition, they also collaborate with marketing firms that possess intimate knowledge of the marketplace.
Past- and future-oriented time-bounded temporal properties with OCL

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

We present the syntax and semantics of a past- and future-oriented temporal extension of the Object Constraint Language (OCL). Our extension supports designers to express time-bounded properties over a state-oriented UML model of a system under development. The semantics is formally defined over the system states of a mathematical object model. Additionally, we present a mapping to Clocked Linear Temporal Logic (Clocked LTL) formulae, which is the basis for further application in verification with model checking. We demonstrate the applicability of the approach by the example of a buffer specification in the context of a production system.

Sexual dimorphism in visual and olfactory brain centers in the perfume‐collecting orchid beeEuglossa dilemma(Hymenoptera, Apidae)

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

Abstract Insect mating behavior is controlled by a diverse array of sex‐specific traits and strategies that evolved to maximize mating success. Orchid bees exhibit a unique suite of perfume‐mediated mating behaviors. Male bees collect volatile compounds from their environment to concoct species‐specific perfume mixtures that are presumably used to attract conspecific females. Despite a growing understanding of the ecology and evolution of chemical signaling in orchid bees, many aspects of the functional adaptations involved, in particular regarding sensory systems, remain unknown. Here we investigated male and female brain morphology in the common orchid bee Euglossa dilemma Bembé & Eltz. Males exhibited increased relative volumes of the Medulla, a visual brain region, which correlated with larger compound eye size (area). While the overall volume of olfactory brain regions was similar between sexes, the antennal lobes exhibited several sex‐specific structures including one male‐specific macroglomerulus. These findings reveal sexual dimorphism in both the visual and the olfactory system of orchid bees. It highlights the tendency of an increased investment in the male visual system similar to that observed in other bee lineages, and suggests that visual input may play a more important role in orchid bee male mating behavior than previously thought. Furthermore, our results suggest that the evolution of perfume communication in orchid bees did not involve drastic changes in olfactory brain morphology compared to other bee lineages.
Vitamin A Palmitate and Carbomer Gel Protects the Conjunctiva of Patients With Long-term Prostaglandin Analogs Application

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Purpose: To investigate the protective effects of vitamin A palmitate and carbomer gel on the morphology of conjunctival epithelium and density of goblet cells (GCs) in patients on long-term prostaglandin analogs (PGAs) application. Methods: In this prospective cohort study, 23 primary open-angle glaucoma patients and 7 normal-tension glaucoma patients prescribed PGAs for >1 year were enrolled into 3 identical clinical trials and randomized into 3 groups (10 per group). Patients were treated twice daily with vitamin A palmitate eye gel 0.1%, or carbomer eye gel 0.2%, or no additional application of these 2 drugs. Ocular surface disease index questionnaires, Schirmer 1 test without anesthesia, tear break-up time test, and GCs density assessment by in vivo confocal microscopy and conjunctival impression cytology analysis were performed at baseline and at months 1, 3, and 6 of the study. Results: Both vitamin A palmitate and carbomer gel led to a significant improvement in ocular surface disease index questionnaires score and prevented the gradual decline in tear break-up time. Vitamin A palmitate significantly increased the GC density after treatment. The GC density assessed by in vivo confocal microscopy positively correlated with that measured by conjunctival impression cytology. Conclusions: Vitamin A palmitate and carbomer eye gel can effectively relieve dry eye symptom caused by long-term application of PGAs by increasing the GCs density and thereby reducing the toxicity to the conjunctiva. Vitamin A palmitate and carbomer eye gel may be valuable alternatives for glaucoma patients who prescribed long-term PGAs.
Numerical simulation of flood control and drainage and water environment improvement project in Shangyu

Field: Environmental Science (Physical Sciences)

In recent years, the domestic waterlogging disasters occurred frequently in many cities, and the water environment problems were prominent, which have seriously affected the normal production and life, and it caused great economic losses. Shangyu was the research object, shangyu had established a two-dimensional hydrodynamic water quality mathematical model of East Zhejiang water diversion project, and the model was verified by the measured data. Furthermore, the influence of different diversion schemes on water quality indexes such as hydrodynamic, BOD and Do. and the engineering measures optimized new drainage sluice and connection project. After adding drainage sluice between Dongjin sluice and No.2 sluice, the flow velocity of Shangyu river network increased by 10% - 20%, and the water level decreased significantly; Through the diversion tunnel, the flow velocity of Zaoli Lake, Baima Lake, Dongpo Lake and Xipo Lake was increased by 258.9%, and water quality reached the standard, it was shortened from 15 hours to 10 hours, and the final pollutant concentration can be reduced to 2mg/L, which meets the class I water quality standard. This shows that the newly flood gate and connection project will greatly improve the flood control and drainage capacity of Shangyu District, then effectively improve the regional water environment, it has a good significance for alleviating the pressure of urban waterlogging and enhancing the capacity of urban regional development.
L-shell radiative transition rates by selective synchrotron ionization

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

Relative L-shell radiative transition rates were obtained for a number of decays in Gd, Dy, Er, Yb, Hf, Ta and Re by means of a method for refining atomic and experimental parameters involved in the spectral analysis of x-ray irradiated samples. For this purpose, pure samples were bombarded with monochromatic synchrotron radiation tuning the incident x-ray energy in order to allow selective ionization of the different atomic shells. The results presented are compared to experimental and theoretical values published by other authors. A good general agreement was found and some particular discrepancies are discussed.

Population Drinking and Homicide Rate in Russia

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Background: Although high homicide rate in Russia has been discussed widely, current literature seems to lack a consistent understanding of this phenomenon. Objective: The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis of the close aggregate level link between alcohol drinking and homicide deaths in Russia.
Method: Age-standardized sex-specific male and female homicide mortality data for the period 1970 to 2013 and data on overall alcohol consumption were analyzed by means ARIMA (autoregressive integrated moving average) time series analysis. Alcohol consumption was significantly associated with both male and female homicide rate: a 1 liter increase in overall alcohol consumption would result in an 11.3% increase in the male homicide rate and in 10.7% increase in the female homicide rate. The results of the analysis suggest that 78.9% of all male homicide deaths and 77.2% female homicide deaths in Russia could be attributed to alcohol.
Conclusions: The outcomes of this study provide support for the hypothesis that alcohol is a major contributor to the homicide rate in Russian Federation. These findings have important implications as regards violent mortality prevention indicating that a restrictive alcohol policy can be considered as an effective measure of prevention in countries where higher rate of alcohol consumption and binge drinking pattern.
Violetta Undone: Getting Closer to Opera By Not Making Opera

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

In early 2016 students at the University of Worcester were set the task of creating an adaptation of Verdi’s La traviata, a work which they knew from having seen the production by Richard Eyre live streamed from the Royal Opera House, at the Odeon Cinema in Worcester. The majority of students attested that this was their first encounter with opera and many were not looking forward to the project. This paper will describe and examine the process of adaptation and will reflect on how the mediated experience of the opera informed the final live production. It will also examine how the devisers of a new work, called Violetta Undone, considered the inclusion of musical and dramatic themes from the opera, as well as how they considered matters of relevance to contemporary audiences. The paper will furthermore consider how this process of undoing the opera not only fulfilled the requirements of the module (to learn about the processes of adaptation) but also brought the students closer to opera as an art-form. The paper will reflect on how, what was ultimately produced, not only radically deviated from what we understand as opera (as represented by the production which acted as a stimulus) but simultaneously adhered closely to the theoretical notion of gesamtkunstwerk which lies at the heart of opera theory. Additionally, questions that will be considered include: What lessons might be learned about educating drama students about opera? And how might undoing opera in a collaborative way inform dramaturgical explorations of operas?

Hypoxia Tolerance of Two Killifish Species

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Synopsis Hypoxia tolerance in aquatic ectotherms involves a suite of behavioral and physiological responses at the organismal, tissue, and cellular levels. The current study evaluated two closely related killifish species (Fundulus heteroclitus, Fundulus majalis) to evaluate responses to acute moderate and acute severe hypoxia. Routine metabolic rate and loss of equilibrium were assessed, followed by analysis in skeletal muscle of markers of oxidative damage to proteins (2,4-DNPH), lipids (4-HNE), and DNA (8-OHdG), hypoxia signaling (HIF1α, HIF2α), cellular energy state (p-AMPK: AMPK), and protein degradation (Ubiquitin, LC3B, Calpain 2, Hsp70). Both species had a similar reduction in metabolic rate at low PO2. However, F. heteroclitus was the more hypoxia-tolerant species based on a lower PO2 at which there was loss of equilibrium, perhaps due in part to a lower oxygen demand at all oxygen tensions. Despite the differences in hypoxia tolerance between the species, skeletal muscle molecular markers were largely insensitive to hypoxia, and there were few differences in responses between the species. Thus, the metabolic depression observed at the whole animal level appears to limit perturbations in skeletal muscle in both species during the hypoxia treatments.
Primed for change: The effect of a blood prime on peripheral blood stem cell collection and accuracy of a prediction tool in pediatric patients

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Abstract Pediatric apheresis collection of peripheral blood stem cells for autologous transplantation often requires use of a blood prime. We evaluated the relationship between pre‐apheresis blood CD34 + counts and final CD34 + yield with use of a blood prime. Forty patients underwent apheresis stem cell collection in a 5 year period in our hospital, of which 27 required blood priming of the apheresis machine. Despite the blood prime group having significantly higher pre‐apheresis CD34 + cell counts, this group processed a relatively higher volume of blood due to a higher dilutional effect and collected significantly less than predicted CD34 + cell yield. Use of weight‐specific collection efficiencies and dilution‐adjusted pre‐apheresis CD34 + counts will help in accurately estimating the whole blood volume to process for PBSC collection and therefore increase efficiency and decrease the overall cost of collection.
