Patterns of HIV treatment preferences among people with diverse demographic, social, and behavioral characteristics who are living with HIV in the United States.

New dosage form and frequency options may improve HIV treatment outcomes and reduce disparities in access and use. People with HIV (PWH) in the US completed a demographic and discrete choice experiment survey of preference for 13 hypothetical HIV treatment options: daily and weekly oral tablets; 1-, 3-, or 6-monthly injections by self or a health care provider; yearly implant; or combinations. Best-worst scaling and a latent class model were used to analyze overall preference choices and for groups of individuals with similar patterns of preferences; the model also predicted uptake of products. Among the diverse 829 respondents, weekly oral tablets and 6-monthly injections by an HCP were significantly more favored than daily oral tablets. Convenience of the treatment and being tired of taking pills were the top drivers of preference responses. Latent class analysis identified four groups of respondents with distinct preference patterns; approximately two-thirds belonged to groups strongly preferring products other than daily oral tablets. The modelled uptake of a monthly pill, yearly implant, 6-monthly Health Care Provider (HCP) injection, oral daily pill, and 3-monthly HCP injection were 24%, 24%, 24%, 18%, and 11%, respectively. Patterns of HIV medication preference can inform development of new forms of HIV therapy products as the majority of patients do not prefer the currently most available treatment option of daily oral tablets. Looking beyond population-level preferences and into similar groups of PWH increases the ability to develop patient-centered products to fill gaps in care and increase treatment effectiveness.

From Niche to Mainstream: US Consumer Trends and Preferences for Elderberry Products

Elderberry (Sambucus spp.) is an emerging and popular specialty crop in North America and worldwide. Both the fruit and flowers are being increasingly consumed because of their proven health benefits, mostly in the form of dietary supplement products. We explored changes in consumer knowledge and purchasing preferences regarding elderberry products after comparing results of a survey conducted in 2022 with those of a previous study conducted in 2011. Findings based on responses from 1036 US residents revealed that 41.2% had previously consumed elderberry products. This marks a significant increase from the 6.9% reported in the 2011 survey. Elderberry-based vitamin supplements were the most consumed elderberry product reported in the survey. Approximately half of the respondents reported consuming this product, which is an approximately seven-fold increase from 7.0% reported in 2011. We noted a change in purchasing venues, with more than 50% of participants purchasing elderberry products from grocery stores in 2022 compared to 43% in 2011. An analysis of a discrete choice experiment revealed that, among selected product attributes, organic and pesticide-free production of elderberries were the most important attributes. Statistical results of the choice experiment suggested that consumers were willing to pay, on average, US$3.51 more per 12-ounce (355 mL) bottle of juice made from organic elderberries and an even higher premium of US$3.97 more per bottle of pesticide-free elderberry juice compared to that for juice made from conventionally grown elderberries. We also estimated that consumer products made with American-grown elderberries would garner a 13% price premium over elderberries grown in Europe. Elderberry products with carbon neutrality elicited a 13% premium per bottle of juice (approximately US$1.91 more per bottle) compared to that of those without disclosure of the carbon emission information. In summary, elderberry products labeled as pesticide-free, locally produced, and carbon-neutral are likely to offer the greatest market appeal to US consumers and would further contribute to the mainstreaming of elderberry products.

Industrial designs and firm performance: evidence from publicly traded Canadian companies, 1990–2014

ABSTRACT Industrial designs (IDs) are a specialized type of intellectual property that protects a product's form and presentational features, giving it uniqueness that differentiates it from other products. This paper estimates the effect on firm revenue and profitability of holding IDs. Using a unique data set linking Canadian ID holdings with Canadian publicly traded firms over the years 1990-2014, the authors use two methods to identify a positive association between holding IDs and firm revenue per employee and net income per employee. We contribute to the literature on IDs by introducing controls for patenting, R&D spending, and time-varying sector effects. To determine the marginal effect of each additional ID held, we use a fixed effects regression and find that a 1% increase in the stock of IDs increases revenue per employee by 0.19%. With a nearest-neighbor matching approach, we find a 10% total premium in revenue per employee and a 20% premium in net income per employee among firms holding at least one ID, compared to those with none.

Messing up Visual Management Studies: A Problematizing Review

AbstractManagement studies are increasingly turning to visual materials to generate rich insights on the complexities in organizational life, thereby developing visual management studies (VMS). In this paper, we conduct a problematizing review to re‐imagine VMS so that it is better equipped to deal with the complexities or, from our perspective, the messiness in organizational life. Informed by theoretical readings in visual studies and reflexivity we analyse this research domain with three questions: (1) How is the visual conceptualized? (2) How is visual meaning decided? and, (3) how is the visual researcher depicted? Our findings show how the studies in our review tend to converge on an orderly form of knowledge production, missing out on the domain's messy potential. Our proposal is to mess up VMS through rediscovering visual, social and philosophical perspectives that theorize the visual, cultivating the polysemy of the visual and working with the ‘inter‐situality’ of visual meaning, thereby ensuring that, as visual researchers, we take responsibility for the visual in our research decisions.

Influence of the mass percentage of binders on the properties of LHC

This paper investigates the effects on the physical and mechanical properties and microstructure of lime-hemp concrete (LHC) materials at different binder mass ratios. A mixture of three cementitious materials, slaked lime, cement, and coal gangue powder, was used as binder, and hemp shives were used as concrete aggregate, and five test groups were designed, i.e., binder/hemp shives (B/H) mass ratios of 1.2, 1.4, 1.6, 1.8, and 2.0. The physical properties of LHC, including density, drying rate, water absorption, thermal conductivity coefficients, and mechanical properties (compressive strength and flexural strength) with different binder ratios were investigated. In addition, the microstructural properties of 56d LHC were investigated by SEM, XRD, and TG-DTG micro-scale analysis methods. The results showed that with the increase in binder content, the drying speed of LHC became faster, the thermal conductivity coefficients, compressive strength, and flexural strength increased, and the water absorption was just the opposite. With a fit ratio of 2.0, the strength is the greatest and the toughness is the best; with a fit ratio of 1.2, the thermal conductivity coefficient is the smallest and the insulation effect is the best. In addition, the hydration of the binder produced different forms of hydration products (CaCO3 and C-S-H), and the hydration products increased in quantity with the increase of the binder, resulting in stronger CaCO3 and C-S-H diffraction peaks. The hydration products produce a better bond with the rough cannabis particle surface, filling the internal voids of the LHC, improving the density of the material, and enhancing the mechanical properties of the material.

Correlations and Signaling in the Schrödinger-Newton Model

Abstract The Schrödinger-Newton model is a semi-classical theory in which, in addition to mutual attraction, massive quantum particles interact with their own gravitational fields. While there are many studies on the phenomenology of single particles, correlation dynamics in multipartite systems is largely unexplored. Here, we show that the Schrödinger-Newton interactions preserve the product form of the initial state of a many-body system, yet on average agreeing with classical mechanics of continuous mass distributions. This leads to a simple test of the model, based on verifying bipartite gravitational evolution towards non-product states. We show using standard quantum mechanics that, with currently accessible single-particle parameters, two masses released from harmonic traps get correlated well before any observable entanglement is accumulated. Therefore, the Schrödinger-Newton model can be tested with setups aimed at observation of gravitational entanglement with significantly relaxed requirements on coherence time. We also present a mixed-state extension of the model that avoids superluminal signaling.

НАПРАВЛЕНИЯ ОБЕСПЕЧЕНИЯ ЭФФЕКТИВНОЙ ДЕЯТЕЛЬНОСТИ СЕМЕЙНЫХ ФОРМ АГРАРНОГО ПРОИЗВОДСТВА

In modern conditions, the issues of ensuring the effective functioning of small forms of economic activity are of great importance for the effective functioning of rural areas in social and economic and administrative aspects. In this regard, there is a need to substantiate effective models of economic activity for family forms of agricultural production. These issues are especially relevant for new regions of the Russian Federation. In the course of the study, it was established that peasant farms of Zaporozhye region, included in the cooperative, are differentiated by commodity. Representatives of the commodity group are the least numerous, but they use more than 50% of the total area of agricultural land. In order to improve the efficiency of using the resource potential, increase the number of commodity-type farms and improve the level of well-being of their members, it was proposed to optimize the structure of land use. The proposed land use structure is as follows: cherries - 48%, apricots - 15%, other fruits - 7%, potatoes - 21%, tomatoes - 5%, other crops - 4% of the total volume of agricultural land. Practical implementation of the proposed recommendations will reduce labor costs by 32.7%, but at the same time financial costs increase by 71.4%. Reducing the labor intensity of agricultural production increases the attractiveness of this model for family forms of farming. According to the research results, an increase in the conditional level of profitability by 269 points, as well as the level of family income by 16.2% is noted, which proves the social effect of the implementation of this project for residents of rural areas. A scientifically substantiated model of mutually beneficial cooperation of family forms of agricultural production is an incentive for their participation in the activities of cooperative integration entities.

Efficient removal of nitrate and ammonium by strain Pseudomonas poae EH-E3 under acidic pH and low-temperature conditions

The combined effect of low temperature and an acidic environment may restrict the growth and metabolic activity of microorganisms involved in nitrogen removal. To overcome poor biological nitrogen removal efficiency during low-temperature treatment of acidic wastewater, a novel pure strain of Pseudomonas poae EH-E3 was successfully isolated and screened based on its strong heterotrophic nitrification and aerobic denitrification capacity. Strain EH-E3 could completely eliminate inorganic nitrogen sources of nitrate within 30h and ammonium within 20h at 15 °C and pH 5.0, with corresponding removal efficiencies for total nitrogen of 95.13% and 91.35%, respectively. Nitrogen balance testing indicated that strain EH-E3 removed 43.25% of ammonium, 45.72% of nitrate, and 51.20% of nitrite in the form of gaseous products. Enzyme activity assays revealed that the specific activities of ammonia monooxygenase, nitrate reductase, and nitrite reductase were 0.533, 0.956, and 0.011 U/mg proteins, respectively. These findings suggest that strain EH-E3 has strong potential for use in low-temperature treatment of acidic wastewater.

Indie economics: social purpose, lay expertise and the unusual rise of modern monetary theory

ABSTRACT We argue that the IPE literature on economic expertise has been characterised by ‘methodological elitism’ that makes it ill equipped to account for the influence of heterodox and grassroots forms of expertise. To remedy this, we posit a theoretical framework that emphasises the tensions between two forms of professional legitimacy. One is internal legitimacy and it is rooted in appeals to scientific objectivity, political neutrality and high professional barriers of entry. However, internal legitimacy may clash with external legitimacy, which is a function of a clear articulation of social purpose. Taking the surprising rise of Modern Monetary Theory as a case study, the paper makes two claims. First, its ideas did not coalesce into a distinctive heterodox brand of economics through traditional mechanisms like academic peer-review and citation networks, but through intense online activity. Second, the messaging that spurred MMT consistently combined constitutive claims with explicit declarations of social purpose. The result was an open project with a broad normative appeal, which successfully enrolled a large group of passionate followers and co-creators. To date, IPE scholars have been blind to such alternative forms of knowledge production.

A Survey of Melatonin in Dietary Supplement Products Sold in the United States.

In the United States, melatonin products are widely available as dietary supplements. During the past few decades, melatonin products have gained popularity primarily as a sleep aid, with a variety of product forms available for different age groups of consumers. Recent reports have highlighted a rise in melatonin ingestion among children reported to poison control centers. The increased use of melatonin-containing products, the diversity in product forms, and reported label discrepancies has emphasized the need for additional research to better understand the marketplace. This work aims to measure melatonin content in products sold as dietary supplements and marketed for children, evaluate method performance across different product categories, and determine if product form has an impact on melatonin stability. One hundred ten (110) dietary supplement products labeled to contain melatonin and marketed towards children were purchased and analyzed using a targeted LC-MS/MS method validated for the qualitative determination of serotonin and quantification of melatonin, N1-acetyl-N2-formyl-5-methoxykynuramine (AFMK), and N1-acetyl-5-methoxykynuramine (AMK). Melatonin was identified in 108 of 110 products (98%) with a median concentration of 1.2 mg/g (range: 0.017-130 mg/g) or 1.7 mg/serving (range: 0.042-50 mg/serving). Further, in the tested products, melatonin content ranged from 0% to 667% of the label declaration. This study provides evidence to inform safety assessments and investigate potential factors that may influence reported concentrations, such as product stability and matrix influences.

Lotion Formulation with Papaya Seed Extract (Carica Papaya L) as a Skin Moisturizer

Papaya seeds (Carica papaya L) have many vitamin contents that function to help increase immunity, fight free radicals, and also help increase skin moisture. Lotion is one of the pharmaceutical preparations in the form of beauty products that function to brighten and help increase skin moisture. In this research, a formulation of papaya seed extract will be made to become a lotion preparation that can increase skin moisture. This study tested the effectiveness of the preparation on the skin of volunteers. This study was conducted by making papaya seed extract through a maceration process using 96% ethanol, the extract was formulated in a lotion preparation in various concentrations. The resulting lotion was tested for homogeneity, pH, organoleptic, moisture and irritation on volunteers. Treatment was carried out for three days using lotion once a day. Lotion with a concentration of 3%, 5% and 7% which was homogeneous with a blank pH of 5.64, a 3% formulation pH of 5.84, a 5% formulation pH of 5.72, and a 7% formulation pH of 5.95 was found to not irritate the skin of volunteers, stable in room temperature storage. The results of the humidity test on Blanko were 43.3%, 3% formulation 45.2%, 5% formulation 49.95, 7% formulation 52.45%, and comparator 41%. The best result of the humidity test was formulation 3 with a concentration of 7% with an average value of 52.45%. Papaya seed extract can be formulated as a lotion preparation because it meets the physical test requirements of the preparation which shows that the preparation is homogeneous, the pH is stable during storage at room temperature, and does not irritate the skin. The papaya seed extract lotion preparation with a concentration of 7% provides a better humidity level effect compared to Blanko, F1 (3%), F2 (5%), F3 (7%) and also the comparator preparation.

Role of Design Thinking in Socio-Technical Activity for Product Manufacturing

Human interaction intensively impacts design in product manufacturing through design thinking, interpreted product recognition and perceptual product experience (PPE). While the dominant digitalization and artificial intelligence in generative design present significant opportunities for innovation and optimization, there is a gap in adopting holistic, human-centered approaches. Despite numerous advancements, these methods, including design thinking, are not widely practiced, and there is limited discussion on effective design methodologies. This research aims to address this issue by investigating the influence of human interaction on design processes, integrating socio-technical principles, and analyzing how product form affects user perception and recognition.

The findings indicate that implementing the learning model of physical activity-based freedom of movement has been considered as an appropriate pedagogical approach for kindergarten learning. The analysis shows that the model is aligned with children’s developmental needs and supports an interactive and creative learning approach consistent with the Merdeka Curriculum in Indonesia.

Performing the “Tribe”? Ethnic Heritage Associations and the UNESCO 2003 Convention in Malawi

This article explores two interlinked forms of identity expression and heritage production in postcolonial Malawi. The first is the way ethnic communities reconstruct their cultural heritage and identities through the establishment of ethnic-based heritage associations which exhibit heritage at cultural festivals. This points to the shift in cultural production from one that was dictated by the discourse of national culture and single identity to one that is defined by the discourse of heritage which appeals to democratic sensibilities. The second is the inventorying and listing of cultural elements as dictated by the UNESCO 2003 Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage. It is noted that the proliferation of ethnic-based heritage associations found resonance and synergy with UNESCO’s appeals for safeguarding intangible cultural heritage as propagated by its 2003 Convention. However, as the article demonstrates, the imperatives of democracy and the UNESCO 2003 Convention promote ethnic consciousness at the expense of national consciousness. This creates a dilemma in imagining the nation. Drawing on archival and oral evidence, the article argues that the ethnic-based heritage associations, while promoting cultural preservation in line with the UNESCO Convention of 2003, have become sites of political mobilisation where notions of tribe and tribalism are reproduced and reaffirmed. Ultimately, the UNESCO 2003 Convention, while promoting the safeguarding of intangible cultural heritage, reinforces the idea of tribe in Malawi. The article contributes to our understanding of the politics of identity and heritage production in postcolonial Malawi.

Methodology Matters: Emplotting Interpretivism in Contemporary Political Science and International Studies

Abstract The visibility and adoption of interpretive research approaches in the post-Perestroika period have increased in the United States, yet common knowledge within political science (PS) and international studies (IS) departments still signals their marginality. This paper stems from the observation that interpretive scholars often share autobiographical narratives or “journey stories” describing how they came to embrace interpretive research despite socio-institutional obstacles. Based on semi-structured interviews and participant observation, it asks: What do the journey stories of both new and established scholars engaged in interpretivism reveal about the sociology of PS and IS academies? Our findings reveal a widespread perception that interpretivism is gaining a foothold in the United States while intimating the spread of neopositivist hegemony, to some degree, to academies abroad. We show how scholars make use of the label “interpretivism” and identify key diffusion pathways responsible for interpretivism’s wider recognition today. In addition, we find that despite shared assumptions of neopositivist hegemony, our interlocutors pursue interpretive research because it provides them with epistemological and experiential congruence. Their journey stories, we argue, point toward an evolving methodological landscape in PS and IS, which in turn shapes what forms of knowledge production are considered legitimate and valuable.

Low-cost fabrication of digital light processing 3D printed conical microneedles for biomedical applications

The 3D printing of microneedles has become an emerging area of research focus due to its ability to rapidly create microneedle arrays with parametrically variable geometry and composition. Through direct fabrication or via replica molding, 3D printed microneedles can facilitate iterative array assessment and act as a screening tool to quickly establish optimal parameters for tissue insertion and capacity for biomarker monitoring or drug release. However, the widespread adoption of 3D printing by microneedle array researcher group faces multiple barriers: (1) Investment in 3D printing systems that are traditionally associated with high-resolution pose a significant financial cost, (2) Current high-resolution printing methods are often slow and not conducive to rapid manufacturing, (3) Material selection can be limited in some ‘proprietary’ 3D printing systems (e.g. CLIP, SLA, or 2PP), (4) Given the multidisciplinary nature of the microneedle-field, researchers may not have the expertise to optimize printing parameters for a given material or printer. This work explores how ultra-low-cost digital light processing (DLP) printers can rapidly produce functional microneedle arrays for a variety of purposes, whether direct print, master mold production, or creation of coated microneedles, at a fraction of the cost of currently used systems. Further, this work highlights that high quality microneedle arrays can be created using DLP printing methods with reliability exceeding 98 %, tip radii on the order of 30 µm, and with appropriate parameter input optimization, high quality microneedle arrays can be fabricated that express desirable characteristics for multiple forms of solid microneedle array production.

State civil apparatus performance model: The role of transformational leadership, work autonomy, and work involvement

The performance of local government employees plays an important role in carrying out government functions and providing quality public services. This study aims to analyze the relationship between Transformational Leadership and Job Performance, focusing on the mediating role of Work Engagement and moderating Job Autonomy in the context of employees of the Sumenep Regency Government. Although the Sumenep Regency Government achieved an Unqualified Opinion (WTP) on the financial report, challenges in the form of ethical violations and low productivity remain. The research method used a questionnaire to collect data from 81 employees with the Slovin sampling technique, ensuring the representativeness of the results. The results of the analysis showed that Job Autonomy had a significant effect on Job Performance (O = 0.555; T = 5.551; p = 0.000), while Transformational Leadership did not contribute directly to Job Performance (O = 0.038; T = 0.468; p = 0.320). This study is expected to provide new insights into the mechanisms that affect employee performance in the public sector and suggest the application of the transformational leadership model as a strategy to increase employee work engagement and performance, as well as increase accountability and transparency in the management of public resources.

Global Biodiversity: Extinct Arctic Mammoth Tusks as Substitute Resource to Save Live Elephants

Objective: The aim of this article is to justify an approach to natural resource substitution using fossilised mammoth bones from the Arctic to conserve live elephants. Theoretical Framework - The theoretical idea and basis of the article is the replacement of ivory with the tusks of extinct mammoths against the background of melting permafrost in the Arctic. This approach is considered within the framework of a kind of 'mammoth pipeline' - the journey of extinct fossil mammoth tusks and their transformation into eternal values in the form of exclusive products, as well as their ultimate contribution to the conservation of living elephant populations. The theoretical basis of the study is the concept of sustainable development, the theory of natural resource substitution, biodiversity conservation, the concept of benefit sharing paradigm in Arctic mining. Method - The study is based on an interdisciplinary approach using methods from economics and management, ethnology and palaeontology, social research and monitoring. The evaluation of the effectiveness of the ivory to mammoth tusk substitution scheme is considered in terms of the benefits to global biodiversity conservation, including the maintenance of wild elephant populations and the development of traditional fisheries by indigenous peoples of the North. Results and Discussion - This article assesses the world resource of mammoth bone remains, concentrated in the Russian Arctic, and shows the possibilities of their use as a substitute natural resource for elephant conservation and socio-economic development of areas inhabited by indigenous peoples of the North. The influence of ongoing climate change on the increase in the extraction of fossil mammoth tusks is shown. The stages and links of the 'mammoth pipeline' under consideration, including the extraction of mammoth bones, the export and trade of tusks, and the substitution of mammoth tusks for ivory, are substantiated. The factors influencing the formation of the world demand for mammoth tusks are identified and the directions of their use for elephant conservation and socio-economic development of the local population in the Arctic territories in the areas of their extraction are shown. Research Implications - The results of the study can be used to conserve global biodiversity, develop a green economy, substitute mammoth tusks for ivory and conserve elephant populations. The authors estimate that supplying the world market with an average of 10 kilograms of mammoth ivory can save one elephant; exporting even half of the mammoth tusks extracted in Yakutia can save 60,000 elephants. At the same time, issues of social and economic support for the traditional trades and livelihoods of the indigenous peoples of the North are being addressed. Originality/ Value - The originality of the research and its value lie in the new scientific formulation of the solution to the scientific problem of global biodiversity conservation through the substitution of natural resources, the use of own empirical data obtained in the Arctic territories, as well as the possibility of practical application of the results obtained in the field of green economy.
