A novel strategy for activation technique for 6H-SiC substrates in electroless Ni-P plating processes

This study proposes a novel iron wire activation method for electroless Ni-P plating on 6H-SiC substrates, offering a sustainable alternative to traditional metal activation techniques, focusing on the surface roughness effect on the microhardness and Ni-P plating efficiency of 6H-SiC substrates. This experimental approach reveals insights into the relationship between substrate morphology and plating characteristics. It is found that the plating thickness (33.82 μm) of the non-polished substrates closely matched the expected (33.26 μm), with a deposition rate of 6.65 μm/h, which underscores the precision regulation of the plating process. In contrast, despite the faster deposition rate of 9.20 μm/h of the polished S500 substrate, it exhibited a minor thickness discrepancy, suggesting a saturation point in the deposition dynamics on fully polished surfaces. The research additionally sheds light on the adhesion characteristics of the plated layers, particularly emphasizing the role of surface roughness. Remarkably, non-polished substrates demonstrated better adhesion, categorized as HF3, indicating a significantly stronger bond compared to the polished substrates, which were categorized as HF4 to HF6. This distinction in adhesion categories underlines the critical influence of substrate morphology on the quality of the Ni-P layer's adherence.

Identification and Characterization of the miRNA Transcriptome Controlling Green Pigmentation of Chicken Eggshells

Green eggs are mainly caused by inserting an avian endogenous retrovirus (EVA-HP) fragment into the SLCO1B3 gene. Although the genotypes for this insertion allele are consistent, eggshell color (ESC) may vary after a peak laying period; light-colored eggs are undesired by consumers and farmers and result in financial loss, so it is necessary to resolve this problem. miRNAs are small non-coding RNAs that exert essential functions in animal development and diseases. However, the regulatory miRNAs and detailed molecular mechanisms regulating eggshell greenness remain unclear. In the present study, we determined the genotype of green-eggshell hens through the detection of a homozygous allele insertion in the SLCO1B3 gene. The shell gland epithelium was obtained from green-eggshell hens that produced white and green shell eggs to perform transcriptome sequencing and investigate the important regulatory mechanisms that influence the ESC. Approximately 921 miRNAs were expressed in these two groups, which included 587 known miRNAs and 334 novel miRNAs, among which 44 were differentially expressed. There were 22 miRNAs that were significantly upregulated in the green and white groups, respectively, which targeted hundreds of genes, including KIT, HMOX2, and several solute carrier family genes. A Gene Ontology enrichment analysis of the target genes showed that the differentially expressed miRNA-targeted genes mainly belonged to the functional categories of homophilic cell adhesion, gland development, the Wnt signaling pathway, and epithelial tube morphogenesis. A KEGG enrichment analysis showed that the Hedgehog signaling pathway was significantly transformed in this study. The current study provides an overview of the miRNA expression profiles and the interaction between the miRNAs and their target genes. It provides valuable insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying green eggshell pigmentation, screening more effective hens to produce stable green eggs and obtaining higher economic benefits.

Comparison of Medical Tape Performance Using Skin Response Quantitative Measurements on Healthy Volunteers.

Medical tapes can lead to skin damage upon removal in susceptible patients with fragile skin and at higher risk of developing tissue injury. We compared the effect of medical tapes with silicone-based versus acrylate-based adhesives on the back or volar forearm stratum corneum using analytical techniques to assess skin condition and potential damage post product removal on 88 healthy volunteers. Two studies were conducted in separate facilities (Study 1: 3M In-house Clinical Facility, St. Paul, Minnesota; Study 2: DermiCo, LLC, Broomall, Pennsylvania). Four commercially available tapes were the same in both studies, two for each type of adhesive. We evaluated adhesion to the skin, total proteins and corneocytes removed by the tapes, changes in transepidermal water loss (TEWL), and induction of the inflammatory cytokine interleukin-1 alpha (IL-1a). One of the silicone tapes displayed the strongest adhesion at 24 hours, and one of the acrylate tapes had the lowest adhesion, showing differences in performance within adhesive categories. The adhesion forces did not correlate with the amount of total protein or corneocytes removed. Silicone adhesives removed less total protein and corneocytes than acrylate adhesives. Silicone adhesives did not alter TEWL, whereas acrylate adhesives significantly raised TEWL. There were no differences in interleukin-1alpha induction. The silicone adhesive tapes were less disruptive to the skin barrier than the acrylate adhesive tapes, even in healthy volunteers whose skin is not as fragile as what is observed in typical patients. This type of data could guide clinical product usage decisions.

Experimental investigation of the mode I fracture toughness behaviour of timber adhesive joints: The synergistic effect of the adhesive type and the bondline thickness

Timber is a construction material widely used for structural applications. In the last decades, the improvements of both the bonding techniques and the quality of the adhesives enabled to overcome the intrinsic limitations of sawn timber, resulting in a wide spread of engineered wood products (EWPs). Understanding and assessing the bonding quality of structural EWPs has become nowadays a crucial point to assure their load-bearing capacity and even to increase their performance. One of the most revealing properties to assess the bonding quality and behavior is the fracture energy (or toughness), which could be estimated by performing suitable tests. In the present work, the results of an experimental campaign aimed to define the mode I fracture toughness of timber-to-timber adhesive bonding are presented and discussed. The fracture toughness behavior of three different categories of adhesives for structural applications was investigated, namely melamine-urea-formaldehyde (MUF), polyurethane (PU) and phenol-resorcinol-formaldehyde (PRF). In addition, the effect of the adhesive bondline and precrack thickness (0.15 and 0.30 mm) was also investigated. The results revealed different fracture toughness behaviour between the various adhesives and bond line thickness, in terms of both crack initiation and propagation. In fact, the mode-I fracture toughness appears to be highly dependent on the adhesive type, as also seen by the related analysis of variance. The fractured surfaces are also characterized by means of optical microscopy, giving insights about the local failure modes.

A simple criterion for [formula omitted]-adhesivity

Adhesive categories, and variants such as M,N-adhesive ones, marked a watershed moment for the algebraic approaches to the rewriting of graph-like structures, since they provide an abstract framework where many general results (on e.g. parallelism) could be recast and uniformly proved. However, often checking that a model satisfies the adhesivity properties is far from immediate. In this paper we present a new criterion giving a sufficient condition for M,N-adhesivity, a generalisation of the original notion of adhesivity. To show the effectiveness of this criterion, we apply it to several existing categories of graph-like structures, including hypergraphs, various kinds of hierarchical graphs (a formalism that is notoriously difficult to fit in the mould of algebraic approaches to rewriting), and combinations of them.

Part 2: The Pediatric Hazards of Art Materials.

Children can encounter art materials that contain hazardous substances at school, in the home, and during outside activities. Hazardous substances can be found in both art materials that are made to be used by children and art materials used by adults. Some of these materials can be severe irritants, allergens, carcinogens, or other chronic disease hazards. Many of the most frequently used and potentially most hazardous materials are found in the categories of solvents, pigments, and adhesives. Selected members of these categories and where they may be found in common art materials are briefly discussed. Preventive techniques that specifically address the potential hazards of each category are included. [Pediatr Ann. 2023;52(6):e219-e230.].

Does surgeon seniority affect adhesion assessment at cesarean delivery? A prospective study

Intraabdominal adhesions may develop following cesarean delivery and are considered a major concern. This study aimed to determine the effect of surgeon seniority in evaluating intraabdominal adhesions at cesarean delivery. Aprospective study to estimate interrater reliability between surgeons was conducted. Women who underwent cesarean delivery (January-July 2021) in a single tertiary university-affiliated medical center were included. Blinded questionnaires assessing adhesions were completed by the surgeons. Questions were limited to 4 main anatomic sites and 3 possible categories of adhesion (each site was scored between 0 and 2; the sum score range was 0-8). The surgeons were ranked by increasing seniority (1-4) as: (1) junior residents (less than half of residency completed), (2) senior residents (more than half of residency completed), (3) young attending physicians (attending physicians for<10 years), and (4) senior attendings (attending physiciansfor >10 years). The weighted percentage of agreement was calculated between the 2 surgeons assessing the same adhesions. Scoring differences between the 2 surgeons (senior vs less senior) were also calculated. A total of 96 pairs of surgeons were included in the study. The sum interrater reliability found in the weighted agreement tests between surgeons was 0.918 (confidence interval, 0.898-0.938). When scoring differences between surgeons (senior vs less senior) were calculated, nonsignificant difference was found (mean sum score difference of 0.09 with a standard deviation of 1.03 in favor of the more experienced surgeon). Surgeon seniority does not affect subjective scoring of adhesion reports.

Feasibility of Gel Mask Peel Off Basil Leaves for Acne-Prone Facial Skin

Basil leaf peel off gel mask as one of the basic ingredients of traditional cosmetics for acne-prone facial skin care. This study aims a) to determine the content of flavonoids, tannins and vitamin C contained in the basil leaf peel off gel mask b) find out the feasibility of the basil peel off gel mask in terms of texture, aroma, adhesion (organoleptic test) and panelist preferences (hedonic test). This research uses quantitative methods of pre-experiment method type. The place and time of the study was conducted at the FMIPA Laboratory and the Cosmetology and Beauty Laboratory of FPP UNP in January 2022. The object of study is basil leaves.The data sources used were 7 panelists, namely 1 beauty doctor, 1 chemical analyst, lecturer and 3 Cosmetology and Beauty students who had passed the cosmethodology course. The results of the analysis were obtained in kemngi leaves per 100gr of flavonoid content as much as 0.00104%, tannins as much as 0.0089% and vitamin C as much as 0.158%. Judging from the results of organoleptic tests on the texture aspect, the ratio of 10g: 2.5g got the highest score, namely 57.1% in the condensed category, in the aroma aspect the ratio of 15g: 2.5g got the highest score of 71.4% in the flavored category, at the closeness of the ratio of 10g: 2.5g got the highest score of 57.10% in the adhesive category and the panelists' favorability in the ratio of 10g: 2.5g got the highest score of 57.10% in the like category. The results of this study can be used as preliminary data for the next researchers in examining this problem regarding the basil leaf peel off gel mask to be further refined.

Probabilistic Collapse Design and Safety Assessment of Sandwich Pipelines

This paper presents an approach for probabilistic design and safety assessment of sandwich pipelines under external pressure. The methodology consists of the categorisation of sandwich pipeline collapse strength models based on interlayer adhesion conditions. The models are validated by comparing their predictions against collapse test data of sandwich pipelines. The accuracy of the strength models and their prediction uncertainty are used to select the best model in each category. Regarding interlayer adhesion categories, uncertainty propagation of models’ predictions over a wide range is assessed by the Monte Carlo simulation method. The proposed methodology is demonstrated using a case study of a sandwich pipeline with adequate probabilistic modelling of the basic random variables. Different limit states are defined for three categories of sandwich pipelines, based on which structural reliability indices are estimated. In employing the First Order Reliability Method for sensitivity analysis, the importance of basic variables of the limit states is evaluated. Later, a parametric analysis is conducted, presenting reliability variations for several design and operational scenarios of sandwich pipelines. Finally, to achieve a uniform level of structural reliability of sandwich pipelines, a few suggestions are provided, and practical partial safety factors are calculated. The results of the present analysis can provide guidance on the probabilistic design and operational safety assessment of sandwich pipelines.

A bioinformatic analysis of WFDC2 (HE4) expression in high grade serous ovarian cancer reveals tumor-specific changes in metabolic and extracellular matrix gene expression.

Human epididymis protein-4 (HE4/WFDC2) has been well-studied as an ovarian cancer clinical biomarker. To improve our understanding of its functional role in high grade serous ovarian cancer, we determined transcriptomic differences between ovarian tumors with high- versus low-WFDC2 mRNA levels in The Cancer Genome Atlas dataset. High-WFDC2 transcript levels were significantly associated with reduced survival in stage III/IV serous ovarian cancer patients. Differential expression and correlation analyses revealed secretory leukocyte peptidase inhibitor (SLPI/WFDC4) as the gene most positively correlated with WFDC2, while A kinase anchor protein-12 was most negatively correlated. WFDC2 and SLPI were strongly correlated across many cancers. Gene ontology analysis revealed enrichment of oxidative phosphorylation in differentially expressed genes associated with high-WFDC2 levels, while extracellular matrix organization was enriched among genes associated with low-WFDC2 levels. Immune cell subsets found to be positively correlated with WFDC2 levels were B cells and plasmacytoid dendritic cells, while neutrophils and endothelial cells were negatively correlated with WFDC2. Results were compared with DepMap cell culture gene expression data. Gene ontology analysis of k-means clustering revealed that genes associated with low-WFDC2 were also enriched in extracellular matrix and adhesion categories, while high-WFDC2 genes were enriched in epithelial cell proliferation and peptidase activity. These results support previous findings regarding the effect of HE4/WFDC2 on ovarian cancer pathogenesis in cell lines and mouse models, while adding another layer of complexity to its potential functions in ovarian tumor tissue. Further experimental explorations of these findings in the context of the tumor microenvironment are merited.Supplementary InformationThe online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s12032-022-01665-4.

DIA Comparative Proteomic Analysis of Retro-oil Fluid and Vitreous Fluid From Retinal Detachment Patients.

Objectives: There have been reports of unexplained visual loss following intra-ocular silicone oil (SiO) tamponade in retinal detachment patients, yet the underlying mechanism is unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanisms behind retinal toxicity following intra-ocular SiO tamponade in retinal detachment patients. Methods and Results: Vitreous fluid samples were acquired from 27 patients (27 eyes). Twelve eyes for data-independent acquisition (DIA) were divided into four groups: pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RD group), SiO removal after successful retinal reattachment (SO group), cataract surgery after successful retinal reattachment with sterilized air tamponade (FA group), and PPV for epiretinal membrane (ERM group). The remaining 15 eyes were used for enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay analysis. DIA was combined with two-dimensional liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry to find expression changes in the proteome of vitreous. Mean number mass spectra, statistically differentially expressed proteins, gene ontology (GO), pathway representations, and protein interactions were analyzed. GO analysis showed that the protein categories of synapse organization, cell adhesion, and regulation of cell migration in the SO group were differentially expressed compared to the control or FA groups (p < 0.05). Through Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis, lysosome and cell adhesion were found to be significantly enriched in the SO group compared to the FA and control groups (p < 0.05). Cadherin 2, transferrin, and lysosome function may partially contribute to silicone oil-related vision loss. Conclusion: Vision loss-inducing novel molecular signatures and pathways that may be associated with SiO toxicity were identified. Transferrin may be a potential visual outcome biomarker for SiO tamponade.

Comprehensive Systems: A formal foundation for Multi-Model Consistency Management

Model management is a central activity in Software Engineering. The most challenging aspect of model management is to keep inter-related models consistent with each other while they evolve. As a consequence, there is a lot of scientific activity in this area, which has produced an extensive body of knowledge, methods, results and tools. The majority of these approaches, however, are limited to binary inter-model relations; i.e. the synchronisation of exactly two models. Yet, not every multi-ary relation can be factored into a family of binary relations. In this paper, we propose and investigate a novel comprehensive system construction, which is able to represent multi-ary relations among multiple models in an integrated manner and thus serves as a formal foundation for artefacts used in consistency management activities involving multiple models. The construction is based on the definition of partial commonalities among a set of models using the same language, which is used to denote the (local) models. The main theoretical results of this paper are proofs of the facts that comprehensive systems are an admissible environment for (i) applying formal means of consistency verification (diagrammatic predicate framework), (ii) performing algebraic graph transformation (weak adhesive HLR category), and (iii) that they generalise the underlying setting of graph diagrams and triple graph grammars.

Tracelets and Tracelet Analysis Of Compositional Rewriting Systems

Taking advantage of a recently discovered associativity property of rule compositions, we extend the classical concurrency theory for rewriting systems over adhesive categories. We introduce the notion of tracelets, which are defined as minimal derivation traces that universally encode sequential compositions of rewriting rules. Tracelets are compositional, capture the causality of equivalence classes of traditional derivation traces, and intrinsically suggest a clean mathematical framework for the definition of various notions of abstractions of traces. We illustrate these features by introducing a first prototype for a framework of tracelet analysis, which as a key application permits to formulate a first-of-its-kind algorithm for the static generation of minimal derivation traces with prescribed terminal events.

Violência sexual contra a mulher: adesão de hospitais de referência e os perfis sociodemográficos

Buscou-se identificar o grau de adesão dos hospitais de referência ao Protocolo de atendimento às mulheres em situação de violência sexual no Paraná-Brasil, entre 2009 e 2015, associando aos perfis sociodemográficos e às categorias de adesão. Estudo observacional transversal, população composta por todas as mulheres em situação de violência sexual, atendidas por 28 Hospitais do Paraná. Analisaram-se dez itens sobre a taxa de adesão: desde o acolhimento, profilaxias, até encaminhamentos posteriores ao trauma. Encontrou-se que todos os Hospitais fizeram o atendimento agudo às mulheres: 50% aderiram às Profilaxias ISTs, AIDS e hepatites, coletas de secreção e exames sanguíneos; 63% ofereceram contracepção de emergência; 69% encaminharam para acompanhamento ambulatorial. Houve associação entre idade, etnia, escolaridade e estado civil com melhores taxas de adesão ao Protocolo. Entendeu-se que Hospitais de referência se preocupam com atendimentos agudos, mas não aderem integralmente às medidas profiláticas, multidisciplinares e continuadas.

Comparison of Autocross-Linked Hyaluronic Acid Gel and Intrauterine Device for Preventing Intrauterine Adhesions in Infertile Patients: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

Objectives:The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of autocross-linked hyaluronic acid (HA) compared with intrauterine device (IUD) for preventing intrauterine adhesions (IUAs) in infertile patients after hysteroscopic adhesiolysis.Materials and Methods:A randomized clinical trial (ChiCTR-IOR-16007746). Upon completion of adhesiolysis, 3 ml of HA gel was placed into the uterine cavity in Group A; 3 ml of HA gel and an IUD were placed in Group B; and only an IUD was placed in Group C. A second hysteroscopic examination was performed in all patients at approximately 1 month postoperatively for the evaluation of IUA. The primary outcome measure was the effective rate of IUA prevention based on the American Fertility Society (AFS) scoring system.Results:Eighty-nine women were randomly distributed into two groups for intention to treat with 30 patients in Group A, 24 patients in Group B, and 35 patients in Group C. Patients were scored and stratified into three degrees and were enrolled using the simple random sampling method. The three groups were well balanced. There were no significant differences in age, endometrial thickness, the previous number of pregnancy, and the distribution of adhesion categories across mild, moderate, and severe between the three groups. The effective rate of IUA prevention, the AFS score after therapy, and the percentage improvements of Chinese score and AFS score before and after surgery were statistically significant difference between Groups A and C. The clinical pregnancy rate in Group A was higher than those in Groups B and C, but the difference was not statistically significant.Conclusion:HA gel has an advantage over an IUD in reducing IUA recurrence and decreasing adhesions.

Sesqui-Pushout Rewriting: Concurrency, Associativity and Rule Algebra Framework

Sesqui-pushout (SqPO) rewriting is a variant of transformations of graph-like and other types of structures that fit into the framework of adhesive categories where deletion in unknown context may be implemented. We provide the first account of a concurrency theorem for this important type of rewriting, and we demonstrate the additional mathematical property of a form of associativity for these theories. Associativity may then be exploited to construct so-called rule algebras (of SqPO type), based upon which in particular a universal framework of continuous-time Markov chains for stochastic SqPO rewriting systems may be realized.

Recognizable languages of arrows and cospans

In this article, we generalize Courcelle's recognizable graph languages and results on monadic second-order logic to more general structures.First, we give a category-theoretical characterization of recognizability. A recognizable subset of arrows in a category is defined via a functor into the category of relations on finite sets. This can be seen as a straightforward generalization of finite automata. We show that our notion corresponds to recognizable graph languages if we apply the theory to the category of cospans of graphs.In the second part of the paper, we introduce a simple logic that allows to quantify over the subobjects of a categorical object. Again, we show that, for the category of graphs, this logic is equally expressive as monadic second-order graph logic (msogl). Furthermore, we show that in the more general setting of hereditary pushout categories, a class of categories closely related to adhesive categories, we can recover Courcelle's result that everymsogl-expressible property is recognizable. This is done by giving an inductive translation of formulas of our logic into automaton functors.

Abstract 5083: Using proteomics profiling to elucidate the interactions of breast cancer-derived exosomes with the blood-brain barrier

Abstract Breast cancer metastasis to brain is associated with a dismal prognosis commonly attributed to a limited understating of the mechanisms driving this pathological process. Elucidation of the early events leading to brain metastasis is essential to the development of more effective therapeutic and diagnostic approaches. With an interest in the role of breast cancer-derived exosomes in brain metastasis, our group has previously shown that exosomes derived from a brain-seeking variant of the breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 (Br-Ex) can facilitate brain metastasis by inducing alterations in the protein expression profile of astrocytes, one of the components of the blood brain barrier (BBB). This observation led us to hypothesize that the interaction(s) between exosomes and astrocytes is more efficient compared to brain endothelial cells (ECs) or pericytes, the two additional major components of the BBB, resulting in more prominent alterations in the protein expression profile of astrocytes. To test this hypothesis, we first quantified and compared the uptake of exosomes by brain ECs, astrocytes, and pericytes in vitro. The uptake of Br-Ex by astrocytes was significantly greater than that of brain ECs (P&amp;lt;4e-3) and pericytes (P&amp;lt;1e-3). In contrast, exosomes derived from parental or bone-seeking MDA-MB-231 cells (P-Ex and Bo-Ex, respectively) did not show a preferential uptake by astrocytes. We have also demonstrated the uptake of Br-Ex by astrocytes in vivo. The uptake of exosomes by different cell types predominantly relies on the interaction of exosomal proteins with different receptors on the recipient cells. To determine the exosomal proteins potentially involved in the preferential uptake of Br-Ex by astrocytes, we performed quantitative mass spectrometry on the P-, Bo-, and Br-Ex via Isobaric Tag for Relative and Absolute Quantitation (iTRAQ) analysis. Database searches were performed against human proteins in the SwissProt database and a total of 126 proteins were detected with over 95% confidence. Pairwise comparisons identified a total of 27 and 21 proteins with statistically significant differential expression (P &amp;lt; 0.05) in the Br-Ex compared to the P- and Bo-Ex, respectively. Functional enrichment analysis of the detected proteins demonstrated that proteins belonging to the cell migration and focal adhesion categories were over-represented in the Br-Ex. Among these proteins, a number of integrins and annexins were highly enriched in the Br-Ex and can potentially be involved in the preferential uptake of these exosomes by astrocytes. These findings indicate that exosomes derived from brain-seeking breast cancer cells can preferentially interact with astrocytes and these interactions can be driven by exosomal integrins and annexins.

Zamiast Szymborskiej? Krystyna Miłobędzka i źródła współczesnej ekopoezji w Polsce

The paper deals with the topic of ecologically oriented poetry of Krystyna Milobedzka as a vital tradition for 21st-century Polish ecopoets. The author tries to trace the changes in the poetic canon after 1990 and shows the increasing interest in Milobedzka’s poetry among modern poets. By analyzing mainly meta-poetic texts, the paper contrasts Milobedzka’s posthumanistic, “event-driven” way of writing with the humanistic lyrical subject of Wislawa Szymborska’s poetry. The author presents the former as more influential and more productive for modern, ecopoetic styles, including elements such as: waking the awareness, organic perspective of language, an egalitarian way of life and thinking about relations in categories of space and adhesion rather than domination.
