These interpretive efforts are important and worthwhile, particularly as remediation efforts by the Department of Energy have often razed historic structures and other physical testaments to the nuclear landscape. But where else might we look? Where might we situate our interpretive work, and what other stories might we tell? I suggest that we think of these energy stories not as nuclear stories or atomic stories—terms that emphasize the scientific, technological, and military dimensions of nuclear energy—but as stories of radioactivity and radioactivism. Reframing our preservationist, interpretive, and commemorative work in this way both enlarges the field of what counts as a nuclear energy site or story and invites us to pay attention to a wider swath of people, especially the activists who resisted the proliferation of nuclear weapons and the expansion of nuclear power.", "language": "eng", "license": null, "keywords": [], "section": "Featured Theme Article", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/12s5m6p7", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Amrys", "middle_name": "O.", "last_name": "Williams", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Connecticut League of Museums", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2025-09-15T23:30:00+05:30", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/psf/article/52877/galley/39895/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 52866, "title": "Twenty-Five Years of Paleontological Research in Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, Utah: Public Lands in Service to Science and the Public", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "On September 18, 1996, Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument (GSENM) became the first national monument managed by the US Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and one of the first to protect a landscape based partly on its opportunity for scientific discovery. Its creation was a watershed moment in public land management, because to meet the mandates for its first monument, BLM opted to implement unprecedented support of resource investigations for numerous natural and cultural sciences, including establishing its first ever in-house paleontological field program. The rationale for this was taken directly from the establishing presidential proclamation (6920) which called out GSENM’s untapped paleontological treasure trove as “world-class.” The proclamation also singled out the Late Cretaceous vertebrate fossil record of the Kaiparowits Plateau, largely known at the time through the pioneering work of Drs. Jeff Eaton and Rich Cifelli, who had spent years teasing out the mammalian evolutionary story preserved within. Their work on Mesozoic mammals, alongside sporadic work by other institutions (mainly the University of Utah and Brigham Young University) in the 1970s and 1980s, demonstrated that the Kaiparowits Plateau also held a substantial macrovertebrate record that included beautifully preserved dinosaur skeletons. However, a lack of coordinated effort and the difficult nature of fieldwork in the rugged badlands led to what can only be described as desultory results. The leverage that came with monument status, including logistical and financial support provided by BLM, made this resource more accessible to the paleontological community, stimulating a sudden burst of new field research and discovery. Initial, coordinated, and collaborative fossil inventories started in 2000 by joint BLM, Utah Museum of Natural History, Museum of Northern Arizona, and Utah Geological Survey teams led to a cascade of discoveries, including sites preserving plants, invertebrates, trace fossils, microvertebrates, and macrovertebrates, contextualized by new geological insights. Many of these new fossil finds represent species entirely new to science, with some sites preserving intact snapshots of Late Cretaceous ecosystems that are unmatched globally. Unique geologic conditions resulted in spectacular preservation, sometimes even including soft tissue traces. This renaissance in North American Late Cretaceous paleontology would not have been possible without the focused resources and effort facilitated by the creation of GSENM and the subsequent prioritization of inventory and basic research in its mission. In addition to the science, the public benefits of these efforts have been immense, providing opportunities for direct involvement in the scientific process through volunteer programs, training for several generations of future paleontologists and geologists, innumerable educational programs, and exposure in national and international media outlets through articles, television, and interviews. The collaborative and far-reaching paleontological effort at GSENM has highlighted an often overlooked aspect of public lands management: the importance of US public lands for scientific discovery and education.", "language": "eng", "license": null, "keywords": [], "section": "Featured Theme Article", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/4p99h1nq", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Alan", "middle_name": "L.", "last_name": "Titus", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "BLM", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Randall", "middle_name": "B.", "last_name": "Irmis", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Natural History Museum of Utah", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Scott", "middle_name": "D.", "last_name": "Sampson", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "California Academy of Sciences", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Lindsay", "middle_name": "E.", "last_name": "Zanno", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "L.", "middle_name": "Barry", "last_name": "Albright", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of North Florida", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Joseph", "middle_name": "J.W.", "last_name": "Sertich", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Colorado State University", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Eric", "middle_name": "M.", "last_name": "Roberts", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Colorado School of Mines", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Andrew", "middle_name": "A.", "last_name": "Farke", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Raymond M.

Relatively few APCs have completed formalized postgraduate emergency medicine (EM)-specific training, creating uncertainty around how well prepared APCs are in identifying and treating life-threatening conditions. Foundations of Emergency Medicine (FoEM) offers free open-access curricula, including Foundations I (F1), a flipped-classroom course targeting fundamental knowledge for resident physicians. We sought to use F1 for APC learners to improve their knowledge in identifying and treating emergent conditions.</p>\n<p><strong>Methods:</strong> In our single-center study, 23 APC postgraduate learners (17 nurse practitioners and 6 physician assistants) completed the F1 course between 2020-2021. The F1 course consisted of 23 virtual meetings led by faculty and senior residents, each lasting one hour. The APCs were asked to review vetted asynchronous resources for a recommended two hours before participating in small group, case-based learning sessions involving real-time feedback, curated teaching points, and <br>paired online assessments. Immediately before and following F1 course implementation, participants completed a 50-question multiple-choice test and attitudes survey to quantify knowledge acquisition and evaluate the course. We evaluated change in knowledge scores using a Friedman test. Changes in self-assessed knowledge were evaluated using mixed-effects ordinal logistic regression.</p>\n<p><strong>Results:</strong> Knowledge assessments showed APCs universally improved from the pre-course test (median score 23, 46%, IQR 20-26) to the post-course test (median score 33, 66%, IQR 31-37; adjusted P < .001). The APC self-assessments revealed improved overall EM knowledge (adjusted P = .02), yet respondents also reported an increased likelihood of seeking attending physician help (adjusted P < .001). Overall, 96% were satisfied with the course, 100% agreed that the course difficulty was appropriate, and 79% believed the course improved their performance in a clinical setting.</p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion:</strong> Implementation of the Foundations of Emergency Medicine, Foundations 1, curriculum was associated with increased classroom knowledge and self-assessed overall knowledge in EM among advanced practice clinicians, with high learner satisfaction in the course. Along with knowledge improvement, APCs also reported increased likelihood to seek guidance from an attending physician. These data form the basis for the use of FoEM in the APC learner population.</p>", "language": null, "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

Known diagnoses prior to EDOU encounter and new outpatient diagnoses within one year for hypertension and diabetes were identified by health record data. We defined untreated hypertension and diabetes as no antihypertensive or antihyperglycemic prescriptions or diabetes counseling within one year. We calculated treatment rates with exact 95% confidence intervals (CI). Multivariable logistic regression adjusting for age, sex, and race compared treatment rates among men vs women and White vs non-White patients. Rates of glycemic control assessment were defined by the proportion of patients with known diabetes who received hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) measurement within one year.</p>\n<p><strong>Results:</strong> Among 649 EDOU patients, 59.5% (386/649) were female and 43.8% (284/649) were non?White with a mean age of 59 ± 12 years. Of these, 76.9%(499/649) had known hypertension and 31.3% (203/649) had known diabetes. Within one year, 3.1% (20/649) had newly diagnosed hypertension and 3.2% (21/649) had newly diagnosed diabetes. Among those with known or newly diagnosed hypertension, untreated hypertension occurred in 36.4% (189/519; 95% CI 32.3 - 40.7).

The Kera’a are a Tibeto-Burman-speaking society of ca. 10 000-16 000 members, based in and around the very northeastern Himalayan river valley of India, in the Dibang Valley and Lower Dibang Valley districts of Arunachal Pradesh. The Kera’a refer to their modern spoken language simply as Kera’a or Kera’a ekobe (‘Kera’a tongue’). For shamanic rituals, shamans recite in Igu (or Igu ekobe ), which the Kera’a consider to be a separate language from Kera'a. Igu is mastered and used by shamans (and their assistants) in rituals, as well as passively understood by knowledgeable elders. This paper demonstrates that Igu is a language in its own right, which partially differs on all core levels - lexical, phonological, morphological, syntactic - from Kera'a. While these differences can in part be accounted for by genre differences, they also point to Igu retaining ancestral forms and structures.

Mounting evidence has suggested that not only syntactic factors (e.g., the formation of a filler–gap dependency) but also discourse-related factors (e.g., the discourse status of phrases) influence the processing of non-canonical word orders. However, far too little attention has been paid to subject-initial non-canonical word orders, leaving it unclear how these two factors interact during the processing of such structures. Given this background, we conducted two self-paced reading experiments in Japanese, focusing on inchoative constructions involving a theme subject and a causer adjunct. Experiment 1 showed that the pre-verbal phrase was read more quickly in causer–theme sentences than in theme–causer sentences. We attributed this processing asymmetry to a filler–gap dependency between the sentence-initial theme subject and its original position in the theme–causer sentences. Experiment 2 revealed that this reading-time difference diminished but did not entirely disappear under the condition that a phrase marked as discourse-given appeared first. This pattern aligns well with previous findings concerning the processing of object-initial non-canonical word orders. Taken together, we conclude that syntactic and discourse factors interact in the processing of subject-initial non-canonical sentences, just as they do in the processing of object-initial ones. This study also proposes what we call a sentence-pair method for the examination of the phrase-by-phrase processing of mono-clausal, structurally simple sentences.

The paper reports the result of two experiments designed to investigate the relation between prior beliefs, at-issueness, and lexical meaning for projection inferences in American English. The contents under investigation are contributed by the clausal complements of clause-embedding predicates (e.g., <em>know</em>, <em>discover</em>), which differ in lexical meaning.

We hypothesized that this would increase accessibility and use of prehospital ePCR in patient care decisions.</p>\n<p><strong>Methods: </strong>In 2023, our local academic health center implemented software that made prehospital documentation available to hospital staff within 30 minutes of patient arrival to the emergency department (ED). Before this, we surveyed attendings, fellows, and residents from both the ED and internal medicine (IM) department on their attitudes and behaviors regarding ePCR and clinical practice. We administered the same survey six months after implementation, and compared responses with a Wilcoxon signed-rank test.</p>\n<p><strong>Results:</strong> Sixty-six physicians responded to the pre survey, including 39 (59.1%) from the ED and 27 (40.9%) from the IM department. Fifty-two completed the post survey, including 33 (63.5%) emergency physicians and 19 (36.5%) IM physicians. The pre- survey response rates were 92.9% and 54% for the ED and IM groups, respectively, while the post-survey response rates were 84.6% and 70.4%. Change in rank was significant (P < .01) for the following categories: knowledge;, ability; ease of use; time to access; and frequency of accessing the ePCR. Change in rank was not significant for the importance of ePCR in patient care and medical decision-making, and whether the ePCR would be used more frequently if it were easier to access.</p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion:</strong> Pre- and post-survey responses regarding accessibility showed a significant change in rank, while the importance of the ePCR on clinical decision-making did not. This suggests that while system integration increased accessibility to prehospital information, it did not significantly alter patient care decision-making.</p>", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

Our search was supplemented by cross-referencing previous studies to identify cases and reviews of topical salicylate toxicity. We then performed a descriptive analysis of the cases, summarizing key information such as clinical presentation, blood levels, and outcomes. Findings were used to contextualize the risks and clinical manifestations of topical salicylate toxicity. </p>\n<p><strong>Results:</strong> A total of 44 cases of topical salicylate toxicity, including our index case, were identified and included in our analysis.

One possible way to expedite decisions is for triage nurses to make predictions about whether patients require admission to hospital. The information contained in these predictions could be useful for disposition planning and for physician decision-making. Previous studies made use of prospective designs that introduced Hawthorne effects and have demonstrated mixed evidence on whether triage nurse predictions are accurate. We examined the accuracy of triage nurse predictions for patient admission in an ED in southeastern Ontario.</p>\n<p><strong>Methods:</strong> We examined a retrospective sample of 134,891 visits to an ED in Ontario from March 2019 – July 2024. Triage nurses made predictions about admission to hospital for these visits, from which we estimated measures of specificity, sensitivity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, accuracy, and F1 scores.</p>\n<p><strong>Results:</strong> Of 134,891 visits, 13.7% resulted in hospital admission. We found the accuracy of the nurses in predicting admission to be 85.8% (95% confidence interval [CI] 85.7 - 86.1), while overall sensitivity was 36.6% (95% CI 35.9 - 37.3) and specificity was 93.7% (95% CI 93.5 - 93.8).

Yet, there is widespread recognition that extreme events, such as record-breaking heatwaves and catastrophic wildfires, are already becoming the new normal. The 2025 edition of the State of Bay–Delta Science (SBDS) presents the current state of the science on climate change and extreme events affecting the Delta and its watershed, and in doing so, generates new insights on knowledge gaps and promising directions for future research. In this essay we present five perspectives to advance science-informed decision-making in the era of climate change and extreme events. To meet these challenges, Delta scientists and decision-makers can leverage the many effective practices that are already in place, such as long-term monitoring programs, collaborative synthesis venues, science-informed decision-making processes, and Tribal and community partnerships. New and sophisticated tools that harness big data are helping to streamline information flows to scientists. Open science practices are facilitating greater collaboration and improving access to more integrated datasets and to models that link different parts of the system. These assets have strengthened innovation and learning across the Delta. Nevertheless, serious challenges remain. Climate change signals can be difficult to detect as a result of the variable hydroclimate. Greater levels of uncertainty as a result of evolving climate models can present challenges for decision-making. Looking forward, the Delta scientific system can help maintain its relevance to natural resource management by strengthening its capacity for collaborative, open, and actionable science. Such an emphasis is required for anticipating and responding to the new climate and weather realities of the 21st century.", "language": "en", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

To date, scholars have primarily focused on AI’s authorship/entity status and the regulation of its use, overshadowing a critical issue: how AI’s involvement in creative processes influences legal judgments in copyright disputes. Our empirical research reveals systemic bias against AI-generated works in such legal matters. In our studies, participants read about a company that had hired either a human designer (condition one) or a generative AI art system (condition two) to produce works of art, and those works of art arguably infringed an existing copyright. Everything except for the identity of the hired creator (human vs. AI) was held constant, including the works of art: Participants saw identical works. The results showed that, when the works were produced by the AI (vs. the human), participants’ perception and behavior radically shifted. They were more likely to recommend that a copyright suit be commenced, more likely to find substantial similarity between the original and the allegedly infringing work, and more likely to rule in favor of infringement. Importantly, we do not argue that this bias against AI is bad or immoral or unjust. Rather, we merely identify the fact that, when a creator is an AI, people perceive the creation differently. There is a perceptual bias, and more importantly, this perceptual bias impacts legal outcomes. From this foundation, from this advance in basic science, a number of normative claims may emerge. For one, it is reasonable to assume that human actors, such as corporations, that make use of AI creators, face increased legal risk. As an extension, we delve into copyright law’s primary objective—to promote the creation of new works—and we show that biases against generative AI may frustrate this objective, impeding the very creativity copyright law aims to incentivize.", "language": null, "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [], "section": "Article", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/26t210mg", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Joseph", "middle_name": "J.", "last_name": "Avery", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "W.

Accelerated approval is based upon the agency’s determination that changes in a surrogate or intermediate clinical endpoint are “reasonably likely” to predict a clinical benefit meaningful for patients. In essence, the pathway affords sick patients earlier access to potentially beneficial drugs while trials to confirm clinical benefit continue. Accelerated approval has been likened to a social compromise in which promising drugs enter the market sooner in exchange for a sponsor’s promise to undertake so-called confirmatory trials—that is, postmarketing trials to “verify and describe” the predicted clinical benefit. This Article argues that patients, too, are expected to engage in a compromise when they take drugs approved under the pathway: patients must accept the risk that a drug will ultimately confer no meaningful benefit in exchange for the chance of treatment. But must the compromise end there?\n\nThis Article deconstructs the harms that result from the accelerated approval pathway and explores how those harms should be remedied. For purposes here, the focus is on therapies later withdrawn from the market due to a sponsor’s inability to verify clinical benefit or its decision not to pursue confirmatory trials to completion. Patients and payers incur great expense during what the FDA has termed the “period of uncertainty,” the span of time between a therapy’s approval under the pathway and verification of clinical benefit or lack thereof. Moreover, therapies approved under accelerated approval, the bulk of which are immunotherapies to treat various types of cancer, often have serious side effect profiles. This means that patients who consume later-withdrawn therapies may suffer serious adverse effects\nor even a hastened death from a drug that ultimately yields them little to no benefit—in essence, a “toxic placebo.”\n\nThis Article proposes a tort alternative modeled on the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program to “make whole” patients harmed by accelerated approval’s “toxic placebos.” The proposed administrative compensation scheme, funded through a combination of prescription drug user fees and mandatory contributions from sponsors of later-withdrawn accelerated approval drugs, would allow patients to recover medical expenses, out-of-pocket costs for the accelerated therapy itself, compensation for side effects causally linked to a later withdrawn drug, lost wages, pain and suffering, and wrongful death. This Article does not stand as a criticism of the accelerated approval pathway, which has successfully yielded a plethora of new cancer therapies, among others. Rather, it addresses why an administrative compensation scheme is a necessary adjunct to the pathway and preferable to the status quo in which patients harmed by accelerated approval typically remain without redress through the civil tort system. Finally, it counters the notion that the defense of assumption of risk should bar recovery for patients who incur harm from therapies approved under the pathway.", "language": null, "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [], "section": "Article", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/1g78r5tr", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Laura", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Karas", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2025-08-31T23:30:00+05:30", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/ucilr/article/52404/galley/39487/download/" } ] }, { "pk": 52406, "title": "Reliance and Reliability", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "As we move toward full electrification for household uses, we will need to change the perspective of how we look at reliability and the reliance we have on our utilities. Current measures of reliability are utility-centric, focus on averages and may exclude large-scale events which cause widespread and long-duration outages. Averages are not good enough now (if they ever were). Excluding large events from reliability metrics drives specific utility behavior: restoring densely populated areas quickly to keep averages down, even if some customers in other areas or customers in pockets of more densely populated areas are left without service for days or weeks; discounting compounding harms from long-duration outages; and claiming that reliability is improving when the customer experience clearly is not. \n\nTo adequately measure customer impact as we electrify everything, the perspective that we measure reliability from should not be that of the utility or of the regulator—but rather the individual, the household, the business who is increasingly reliant on that utility service. We need to view it from the perspective of the person who has no power, especially given the energy justice issues that arise with long-duration outages.\n\nAfter discussing current measures of reliability and how they do not adequately capture customer experience and impact (including, in some cases, death), this Article will discuss how states and utility responses to increasingly poor reliability have been inadequate. Instead, regulators must center the customer when addressing reliability in three ways: first, by making more informed decisions; second, by expanding their idea of what can contribute to reliability, especially with regard to distributed resources and storage; and third, by allowing customers pathways to recover damages from their utility.

Part of the reason is because Black and Latino/x communities were overrepresented in essential service jobs during the pandemic, and these jobs did not allow for the ability to work from home. Other reasons stem from a lack of trust due to a history of discrimination in the medical field, lack of health insurance, and the quality of healthcare facilities in areas with diverse populations.\n\nGiven the disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on people of color, states like Utah, Minnesota, and New York, implemented race-based health policies to decrease the hospitalization and mortality rate among people of color, effectively creating affirmative action programs for healthcare treatment.

According to this theory, some investors—particularly institutions sensitive to social norms, such as pension funds and foundations—will shun vice investments. A consequence of this aversion is a “vice premium” for those investors who will invest in such companies. Largely unexplored, however, is what industries or business models qualify as “vice,” how this definition is constructed and changes, how vice aversion affects startup corporate governance and finance, and what consequences vice aversion holds for the real economy. We address these gaps through a series of interviews with startup founders, venturecapital (VC) and angel investors, and legal and financial practitioners. Descriptive data from commercial VC databases supplement our interviews. We find that the definition of “vice” is nuanced and shifts over time as the subjective preferences of investors and their constituents adapt to changing regulatory environments and social mores. Our respondents report that vice startups face heightened regulatory and business-infrastructure hurdles compared to non-vice startups. This experience is especially true for women and other minoritized vice entrepreneurs and those serving minoritized customer bases.

We aimed to explore interpersonal-violence and self-harm injuries, focusing on demographic disparities (age and sex) and mechanisms of injury, including firearm-related violence.</p>\n<p><strong>Methods: </strong>We conducted a retrospective study of VRIs among the US civilian population between 2017-2021. Data were extracted from the American College of Surgeons (ACS) Trauma Quality Programs Participant Use Files. We identified VRIs using the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Rev, with Australian modification E-code series. The dataset was categorized and compared by age, sex, ethnicity, violence intent, and mechanism of injury. This study was a secondary data analysis reporting interpersonal-violence and self-harm injuries among trauma cases from the national trauma database.</p>\n<p><strong>Results:</strong> The total number of trauma patients in the ACS database was 5,483,016 between 2017– 2021 (1.1 million/year). The final analysis included 584,417 (11%) patients with VRIs (interpersonal violence and self-harm), with a mean age of 35 years; 82% were male, 45% White, and 42% Black. Interpersonal violence accounted for 88% of injuries, while 12% were self-harm, with firearm-related violence the most common mechanism of injury (35%). Firearm-related interpersonal violence was common among younger individuals (19-39 years), while non-weaponized interpersonal violence was prevalent among older individuals (≥ 60 years). Blacks had a higher rate of firearm-related interpersonal violence (51%), and Whites had a greater frequency of non-weaponized interpersonal violence. There were 43,089 deaths (7.4%), with 68% resulting from interpersonal-violence and 32% from self-harm injuries. Firearm-related injuries (interpersonal violence and self-harm combined) accounted for 78% of all VRI-related deaths. Mortality was higher in males (7.7%) than in females (5.9%) (P < .001).</p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion:</strong> There is a significant burden of violence-rated injuries in the US, particularly affecting males, racial minorities, and vulnerable age groups. Firearm-related injuries are the leading cause of death in both interpersonal-violence and self-harm cases. The increase in VRIs during the COVID-19 pandemic highlights the urgent need for targeted public health interventions focused on firearm safety, violence prevention, and mental health support.</p>", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

In this paper, we review the current science of ARs and their projected enhancement in a warming climate. We also address the changing state of the Sierra Nevada snowpack. Climate-model projections indicate increasing contributions to extreme precipitation from ARs, and more variable hydroclimate, with increased floods as well as droughts. Observations, meanwhile, do not yet show enhanced precipitation intensity trends. In agreement with climate-model projections, observations do show that, as the climate continues to warm, California’s greatest natural freshwater reservoir—its snowpack—continues to erode. This is despite record snowpacks (e.g., 2023) still being possible, and potentially exacerbating flood effects from ARs in a highly variable hydroclimate. Original analysis of extreme historical and projected precipitation events shows events of the magnitude associated with the New Year 1997 floods are expected to become twice as likely by the late 21st century.\n \nMoreover, as extreme precipitation events are expected to become wetter, hydrologic modeling suggests that extreme runoff events will be disproportionately enhanced, primarily as the result of a greater fraction of rain vs. snow. We also discuss the mitigating influence of water management on extreme flows, and mention new research results, challenges, and opportunities associated with sub-seasonal and seasonal precipitation predictability.

Understanding historical flow volume and timing is therefore essential for sustainable management and restoration of these environments. Using legacy hydrologic data—including riverine water-level measurements, watershed runoff estimates, and wetland reclamation records—we extended a monthly time-series of freshwater inflow to San Francisco Estuary by 6 decades, back to California’s Gold Rush era. This period marks the onset of significant anthropogenic modifications to the waterscape. Our analysis of the extended series, normalized to unimpaired runoff, reveals an increasing trend in systemwide water use that was preceded by a decline in the latter half of the 19th century. We hypothesize this decline resulted from reduced evapotranspiration as a result of vegetation removal and reduced overbank flows from levee construction. These findings align with earlier research that shows similarities between natural and contemporary long-term annual average inflow, comparing pre-development conditions to those of the early 20th century and today.

We evaluated Delta Smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus) and Longfin Smelt (Spirinchus thaleichthys) entrainment risk associated with the Barker Slough Pumping Plant (BSPP) by integrating hydrodynamic, growth, survival, and fish-screen-selectivity information into indices of entrainment risk for nine locations in the Cache Slough Complex (CSC). Our fundamental question was: How does risk of entrainment into BSPP vary in space and time? We found the predicted risk of entrainment into BSPP is extremely high from the adjacent Lindsey Slough. From elsewhere in the CSC, entrainment risk into BSPP is approximately zero in both wet and dry years, such that local irrigation diversions are the only potential source of entrainment loss. We estimated Delta Smelt outgrow vulnerability to entrainment through the BSPP fish-screens in 35 to 53 days while Longfin Smelt remain vulnerable for 90 to 98 days. Research indicates some impingement is probable even after fish outgrow risk of being entrained through the screens if they continue to be passively transported. Our entrainment indices sometimes deviated considerably from hydrodynamic transport predictions within Lindsey Slough because larval fish have high natural mortality rates and, at least for Delta Smelt, growth rates high enough to modify the transport predictions. Since 1989, the predicted entrainment risk at BSPP has declined in the winter but increased in April through May as a result of long-term trends in how much water is seasonally diverted at BSPP.

California has experienced its eight largest wildfires since 1932 in the period from 2018 to 2024. The largest fire to date (August Complex Fire) occurred in 2020—a year in which 1.7 million ha or 4% of California’s land area burned—and burned 418,000 ha. These mega-fires (>10,000 ha) can severely affect water quality and aquatic ecosystems. Water-quality variables affected by wildfire include temperature, sediment load, turbidity, dissolved oxygen, pH, redox potential, soluble and particulate organic carbon, nutrients, metals, natural- and human-produced organic contaminants, and primary/secondary producers. Wildfire and water interact at watershed scales, with water-quality impairments responding linearly with the percentage of the watershed area burned, and responding exponentially as burn severity increases. Vegetation recovery is key to the duration of water-quality effects, and short-term, post-fire weather dictates actual water-related effects. Urban areas are hot spots for the production and transport of water pollutants such as sediments, heavy metals, mercury, nutrients, and toxic organic compounds. Water-treatability challenges after wildfire include short-term odor and taste, increased sediment and turbidity, and increased total and dissolved organic matter. Implications for water quality from catastrophic wildfire on downstream reservoirs are important research needs because ~80% of California’s water supply passes through reservoirs before use. Notably, there is a crucial need for development and assessment of post-fire, land-management practices to mitigate adverse water-quality effects. Finally, continuous measurements of water quality are critical to document the severity and duration of episodic pulses of wildfire-sensitive constituents that are mobilized and transported to aquatic ecosystems after catastrophic mega-fires.", "language": "en", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

The UCLA Luskin Institute on Inequality and Democracy is a tiny (but we think mighty) center that undertakes research and scholarship for the purpose of dismantling structures of inequality and creating reparative public goods. We do so by accompanying social movements and communities on the frontlines of dispossession and displacement through practices of research justice. In May 2025, we invited Naomi Klein to deliver the Institute’s Distinguished Lecture in Ideas and Organizing because she embodies the ethos of the Institute. Klein’s magisterial text, The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism, published in 2007 and translated into scores of languages, has given us all unprecedented insight into how world-ending activities are made profitable. It demands that we take seriously the crises wrought by the unending emergency that is racial capitalism and the capitalization of such crises in the form of disaster capitalism. But equally important, the long arc of Klein’s scholarship demands that we create new narratives and understandings of each crisis and mobilize to ensure that such shocks serve as openings for progressive change. In The Shock Doctrine, Naomi Klein calls this the people’s reconstruction and it goes to the very heart of the work we do as an Institute here in Los Angeles. In the closing lines of the book, Klein (2007: 466) writes: “These are movements that do not seek to start from scratch but rather from scrap, from the rubble that is all around.” Indeed it is from amidst the rubble of evictions and encampment sweeps, from Echo Park Lake to El Sereno, that poor people’s movements create insurgent ground in the city of angels.

Initial lab findings demonstrated leukocytosis, elevated creatine kinase, metabolic acidosis, and rhabdomyolysis. Computed tomography ruled out acute anatomical abnormalities, while urine toxicology returned positive for amphetamines and cocaine. The patient required sedation, rapid sequence intubation, and dantrolene administration, which rapidly resolved his rigidity and hyperthermia and stabilized his vital signs.

They involve a tear to the intima, the innermost layer of the arterial wall, leading to formation of a false lumen. This false lumen can disrupt blood flow, weaken the wall, and lead to thrombus or rupture of the artery. Carotid artery dissections can occur spontaneously or in the setting of trauma. Traumatic carotid artery dissections (TCAD) are rare and occasionally present with third-order Horner syndrome,<br>characterized by ipsilateral ptosis, miosis, and anhidrosis. The presence of subtle physical exam signs like Horner syndrome reinforces the importance of maintaining a high index of suspicion and obtaining vascular imaging in trauma-related cases. While there have been case reports of bilateral TCAD, these have been rarely reported in the literature.</p>\n<p><strong>Case Report: </strong>We present a case involving a 53-year-old female with no significant past medical history who presented to the emergency department after tripping and falling down a flight of stairs. Over three weeks, the patient had persistent tinnitus and right neck pain and, on the exam, was found to have right-sided miosis and ptosis. These exam findings led us to obtain a computed tomography (CT) angiogram of her neck, which revealed bilateral internal carotid artery dissections.<br>The patient was taken for cerebral angiography, which confirmed the diagnosis. A stent was placed in the right internal carotid artery, and the patient was started on aspirin and clopidogrel. The patient was discharged without deficits three days later.</p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion</strong>: Traumatic internal carotid artery dissection can occasionally result in Horner syndrome and requires CT angiography of the neck and potentially a diagnostic cerebral angiogram to diagnose. This case adds to the limited literature on bilateral TCAD, particularly with a delayed and asymmetric presentation. Horner syndrome in the setting of trauma, while subtle, can suggest a carotid artery dissection. Awareness of such rare presentations is key to early diagnosis and<br>treatment. Clinicians must maintain a high index of suspicion for underlying vascular injury in patients presenting with lesser mechanisms of injury.</p>", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

It finds that the term was originally associated with the notion of the “invisible hand” of the market, and gradually became aligned with the perversity thesis under the influence of neoconservatism, collective action theories, and Chicago School economics. The article argues that, due to this transformation, the “unintended consequences” rhetoric became especially valuable for neoliberalism, expressing both the efficacy of markets and the perceived failure of the democratic regulatory state.

We assessed decision-making using a hypothetical choice scenario between an entry-level job offer versus an MBA program, as well as standard measures of decision-making traits: time preference, risk aversion, and loss aversion. We hypothesized that higher anxiety levels would lead to greater preference for immediate rewards, greater risk and loss aversion, and thus greater preference for the job over the MBA. Counter to our hypotheses, neither study found a significant relationship between either measured or induced anxiety and participants’ decision between the job and the MBA. In addition, our anxiety manipulation did not work as planned in Study 2, with no differences in self-reported anxiety between conditions. We also did not find relationships between anxiety and either risk or loss aversion, but did find that anxiety correlated with more impatient time preferences in Study 1. Participants in the experimental condition had marginally more impatient time preferences and greater loss aversion than those in the neutral condition in Study 2.

When barriers are present that impede communication between emergency responders and patients, EMS clinicians report difficulty navigating these encounters. As communication barriers potentially delay definitive care, it remains unclear the amount of time that EMS clinicians spend on scene during these encounters and how often they result in non-transport. In this study we sought to characterize the association between the presence of communication barriers, time spent on scene, and non-transport.</p>\n<p><strong>Methods:</strong> We conducted an observational analysis using 2022 data from the ESO Data Collaborative, a deidentified national prehospital electronic health record dataset. Encounters were restricted to 9-1-1 responses in which the responding ambulance was first on scene, the patient was alive, ≥ 18 year of age, and able to refuse transport. The primary outcomes were time on scene and non-transport. We used logistic regression models to estimate non-transport by communication barrier (including non-English language preference, speech disability, deaf or hard of hearing, and blind or low vision) and control for key patient and encounter characteristics.</p>\n<p><strong>Results:</strong> Of 3,477,008 EMS responses, 233,084 (6.7%) resulted in non-transport and 99,263 (2.9%) had a communication barrier identified. Among encounters with a communication barrier identified, EMS clinicians spent more time on scene with patients who were not transported (21.0 minutes) compared to patients who were transported for definitive care (15.9 minutes). Compared to those without an identified barrier, encounters with a patient who had a non-English language preference (odds ratio [OR] 0.51, confidence interval [CI] 0.49-0.53, P < .001), patients who had a speech disability (OR 0.36, CI 0.33-0.40, P < .001), were deaf or hard of hearing (OR 0.71, CI 0.66-0.76, P < .001), or were blind or had low vision (OR 0.80, CI 0.69-0.92, P < .001) were less likely to result in non-transport, with non-transport rates of 3.6%, 1.9%, 4.0%, and 4.4% respectively. </p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion:</strong> Encounters with communication barriers were less likely to end in non-transport. When communication barriers were identified, EMS clinicians spent 32% (5.1 minutes) longer on scene on encounters that resulted in non-transport, showing that EMS clinicians may be dedicating additional time and resources caring for this population.</p>", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

Repeat callers were defined as making one additional call within 30 days, and we defined super-users as those making ≥four calls within six months. The primary outcome was repeat emergency department (ED) visits within 30 days from the initial transport refusal visit. </p>\n<p><strong>Results:</strong> We analyzed 116 of 203 (57%) patients. The mean patient age was 66.3 years, and 53.6% were female. Forty-seven (37.9%) patients were repeat callers, and 27 (21.8%) were super-users.

No differences in death at one year were observed in either group (repeat callers OR 1.4, 95% CI 0.4-4.5; super-users OR 1.1, 95% CI 0.2-4.1) Repeat callers had higher proportions of anticoagulation/antiplatelet therapy and non-ambulatory status (42.9% vs 61.7%, P=.046 and 29.0% vs 56.8%, P=.006, respectively). </p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion:</strong> Repeat EMS calls for lift assistance may be used to identify patients at high risk for ED visits and hospitalizations.

Elevated levels of circulating thyroid hormones can increase metabolic demand, leading to adverse effects on multiple organ systems, particularly critical cardiovascular complications such as cardiomyopathy, myocardial infarction, ventricular arrhythmias, or coronary vasospasm. Precipitating factors can include infection, surgery, or trauma, with infection being the most common. The potential for cardiovascular mortality is high. While beta blockers are key for treatment, they can potentially reduce necessary cardiac output, risking hemodynamic collapse. Traditionally, propranolol has been recommended. We report a rare case of an adolescent experiencing cardiac arrest after propranolol administration in thyroid storm and acute appendicitis.</p>\n<p><strong>Case Report: </strong>A 17-year-old female with a history of Grave disease, non-adherent to methimazole, underwent evaluation and treatment of thyroid storm and concomitant acute appendicitis. Aggressive initial treatment measures were started, including intravenous and oral propranolol. She went into cardiac arrest approximately six hours after initial medication administration, with subsequent return of spontaneous circulation achieved. The patient underwent aggressive resuscitation and multidisciplinary management. She had a prolonged course in the intensive care unit and was ultimately discharged from the hospital approximately three weeks later.</p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion</strong>: Beta-blocker use in the management of thyrotoxicosis can potentially cause cardiovascular collapse.

QAnon, a conspiracy centered around the clandestine activities of the elite, was a key group in the attack. Since then, QAnon has featured in many headline-worthy national crimes, including multiple attempts to harm elected officials. While there is value in questioning how QAnon became so powerful, it is more instructive to consider why people are compelled to live, die, and kill for an ideology so outrageous. In this paper, I ask why pockets of mechanical solidarity exist within societies governed by organic solidarity. Following Émile Durkheim’s theory of social solidarity, I interrogate QAnon’s rise and conclude that QAnon exists within two large organic societies—the United States and the internet writ large. However, QAnon exists as a pocket of mechanical solidarity, and its rise is deeply connected to how people seek out and choose their communities. By comparing Durkheim’s theories to those of other scholars, I find that the supposedly anachronistic presence of mechanical solidarity distills a question of trust. I posit the idea that certain people have an affinity for supported trust, naturally occurring in mechanical solidarity. Simultaneously, the unique landscape of platform capitalism exaggerates feelings of rapid change while disseminating sensational and bias-confirming information. QAnon and similar communities provide an alluring respite.</p>", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY-NC-ND 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

Initially built as People’s Park Annex in the 1960s, Ohlone Park was used as an alternative space for political activism after the first closing of People’s Park. This paper argues that the development pattern of Ohlone Park as a controlled public space away from its radical past suggests an anticipation of an idealized type of user that occupies the park as a temporary recreational area, which perpetuates the exclusion of disabled and unhoused bodies in the park. This idealization extends to the questions of bodies and space as well as perpetuates the hypervisibility of crip movement. The combination of lawn and lane in the park suggests that the dichotomy of nature and culture in landscape design is inter-perpetual with the imagination of an able-bodied walker. This paper explores how the question of body underlies themes including elements of nature in the built environment, history of the Free Speech Movement, and different forms of moving through greenspaces. This paper ends with the proposal of wandering as a methodology that counters the walker’s imagination and recognizes the multiplicity of spatialities formed moving through the park.</p>", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY-NC-ND 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

Six child malnutrition programs were examined in the Philippines through in-person interviews and literature reviews. A semi-structured interview guide was used to address four major topics about each program: background information; target population; implementation and challenges; and evaluation methods. This study presented each malnutrition program with its implementation approach and scope. The six programs were compared in their approaches toward health education, feeding, gardening, and medical treatment. Five of these programs teach nutrition education, two of which cover health topics beyond nutrition. In regard to feeding, two programs provide malnourished children with ready-to-use-therapeutic-food (RUTF). Of the six programs, three utilize gardening to tackle malnutrition. Two programs provide medical treatment to malnourished children. Additionally, each program’s funding, partnerships, and evaluation methods were gathered and analyzed. All programs are funded by the Philippine government, with two receiving additional funding from international organizations. Four programs possess methods to evaluate their effectiveness, but data collection and analysis vary widely. Malnutrition programs in the Philippines face challenges in terms of funding, partnerships, and evaluation methods. The findings highlight the critical role of international funding and partnerships in improving program effectiveness and sustainability. Moreover, this study highlights the need for a robust evaluation system involving key stakeholders to identify areas for improvement and to tailor interventions to meet specific community needs.</p>", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY-NC-ND 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

My analysis reveals that Costa Rica serves as a model for sustainable development, although its egregious overuse of agrochemicals is generally overlooked and must be replaced with regenerative agriculture practices. Although the success of the Kerala model is evident in the data, Kerala should not be considered a model of sustainable development due to its rampant pollution, limited economic opportunities, and overreliance on remittances sourced from unsustainable economies. Instead, I call for a continued study of Kerala as the Indian state transitions from development to sustainable development.

Discourse surrounding Taiwan itself centers on its independence or unification with China. In media and popular consciousness, Taiwan’s preference for independence or unification is attributed to a difference in national identities—“Chinese” or “Taiwanese.” This reductive view masks the unique ways in which individuals in Taiwan construct their national identities, particularly given the lack of agreed definitions for basic terminology such as “Taiwan” or “Taiwanese.” Yet, qualitative data shows that national identity has little practical relevance in society, as the general consensus is that peacekeeping via maintenance of the status quo is the only current logical course of action. Despite proof of the population’s pragmatic indifference towards national identity, Taiwan’s primary political parties, the Kuomintang (KMT) and Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) persist in upholding the reductive symbolic national identity as the representative issue in Taiwanese politics, overshadowing even uncontroversial questions of economic reform. In contrast, the recently-formed Taiwan People’s Party and their leader, Ke Wen-zhe, claim to offer a way out of this dichotomy, actively criticizing the KMT and DPP’s political theater.

Deepfakes, created using machine learning algorithms like Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), generate hyper-realistic yet entirely fabricated digital content. These deepfakes have complicated the already intricate landscape of IP protection—particularly on social media platforms—where misinformation, fraud, and privacy violations are growing concerns. As these technologies evolve and become more accessible, distinguishing between genuine and manipulated media has become increasingly difficult. This paper examines the impact of deepfakes on IP and trademark enforcement, highlighting the shortcomings of current legal frameworks and enforcement mechanisms. It reviews federal and state legislative efforts and assesses the role of technology corporations in detecting and preventing deepfake content. Despite some progress, existing measures remain insufficient to address the rapidly advancing capabilities of deepfakes. To mitigate these challenges, the paper proposes a comprehensive approach that includes expanding legislative frameworks, enhancing judicial training, and investing in advanced detection technologies. It also emphasizes the importance of public awareness campaigns and the need for tech companies to enforce strict policies against deepfake misuse. By fostering collaboration among governments, legal systems, and the tech industry, a robust framework can be established to protect creators’ rights, uphold digital media integrity, and maintain public trust in the face of these evolving threats.</p>", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY-NC-ND 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

A month earlier, he had been seen in the emergency department (ED) for similar swelling following a streptococcal infection. At that time, a needle aspiration for suspected peritonsillar abscess yielded no drainage, and he was treated with a week of clindamycin, resulting in brief symptom improvement. He subsequently developed difficulty breathing, a muffled voice, and oral bleeding, prompting a return to the ED. On evaluation, he was afebrile, well-appearing, and in no respiratory distress. Examination revealed significant left tonsillar swelling with uvular deviation but no active bleeding. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a bulky left oropharyngeal mass<br>with airway narrowing, raising suspicion for lymphoma. Laboratory results were unremarkable, and biopsy confirmed Burkitt lymphoma based on c-MYC positivity and the characteristic “starry sky” appearance, leading to the initiation of chemotherapy.</p>\n<p><strong>Discussion</strong>: Burkitt lymphoma is a high-grade lymphoma with a large tumor burden and, thus, high risk for tumor lysis syndrome. Fortunately, Burkitt lymphoma has superior survival outcomes in pediatrics with a two-year survival rate estimated to be 89% and requiring minimal cycles of chemotherapy.

One prominent activity in early childhood is engagement in religious practices that involve learning how to communicate with God.

This study investigates how hypoxia impacts global histone modification patterns and the expression of histone-modifying enzymes in peripheral immune cells. Histone modifications, including methylation and acetylation, play a key role in rapid cellular responses to stress by regulating rates of gene expression. Therefore, we hypothesized that hypoxic stress induces (1) differential expression of histone-modifying enzyme genes and (2) significant changes in global histone modification levels, particularly those linked to transcriptional repression for energy conservation. Using RNA-sequencing, [1] [2] we analyzed blood samples from 15 healthy individuals at sea level and during 3 days of high-altitude hypoxia (3800 m). We identified significant changes in histone-modifying enzyme gene expression, including decreased HDAC1 (HA1: -0.29; HA3: -0.46, p<0.001) and HDAC3 (HA1: -0.34; HA3: -0.48, p<0.001), and increased KDM3A (HA1: 0.28; HA3: 0.12) and SIRT1 (HA1: 0.43; HA3: 0.27). In addition, we cultured peripheral immune cells in hypoxia (1% O2) and identified increased levels of the histone modifications H3K9me3, H3K36me3, H3K79me3, and H3K2me3.

Consequently, significant research has been dedicated to optimizing larval growth conditions, while adult BSF behavior remains largely unexplored. This gap may impede further improvements in rearing operations and overall production. To address this, we tested BSF adults using a Y-tube olfactometer—a robust assay for olfaction—to evaluate the olfactory preferences of adult BSF. We compared the response rate of adult BSF to a known attractant and a negative control. Our experimental setup involves varied light conditions ranging from no light, fluorescent lamps, and a custom-made UV full spectrum light to simulate outdoor conditions. Our preliminary results suggest that BSF adults exhibit a higher response to the known attractant under full spectrum light, suggesting that specific lighting conditions enhance responsiveness to olfactory cues. These insights imply that light may play a crucial role in key behaviors such as oviposition, mating, and attraction. By better understanding these processes, we can refine BSF rearing techniques, which could lead to advancements in the waste recycling industry.</p>", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY-NC 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

Los Angeles became a participant of the program, particularly its eastern neighborhoods that contained a significant Latinx/Hispanic population. However, the efforts to improve East Los Angeles’s Latinx neighborhoods failed due to the poor organization and lack of centralization in leadership.

My research intends to explore the progression of the Model Cities Program in East Los Angeles in the years 1969 to 1973. In particular, I will analyze the consequences of its flawed organization and local community members' perception of the program’s failure. I draw on media publications and city records ranging from the period. These sources reveal how the program gradually shifted away from productive planning and became ineffective; this prompted community criticism. I argue that the issues of Los Angeles’s Model City Program encouraged local Latinx communities throughout the city’s eastern neighborhoods to reconsider their relationships with institutional organizations.

Understanding adult behavior is valuable because it could improve adult mating and egg laying in rearing operations, ultimately leading to increased BSF production and more waste recycling. In this study, we tested whether addition of an attractive compound (indole) to an egg laying substrate would increase adult fly oviposition. We used a cage assay to measure BSF oviposition and landing rates when nearby indole. We documented the frequency that the BSF landed on wooden cutouts treated with indole and weighed the eggs left in those cutouts. Analysis of the results revealed that there was no statistically significant difference in BSF landing rates between indole-associated and control cutouts. However, BSF females laid significantly more eggs in indole-associated cutouts compared to control cutouts. These findings suggest that indole addition to the oviposition area does not increase the number of flies visiting, but does increase the number of eggs laid by flies that do visit the site.

Émile Zola’s 1883 novel Au Bonheur des Dames focuses on key themes about capitalism, the mistreatment of lower class workers, and the inherent sexism women faced in nineteenth-century France. By focusing on the new modes of retail shopping that emerged in the late 1800s, Zola presents problems created by a consumer-focused society. The introduction of women into the job market established more boundaries for them to overcome, as women were no longer just competing with men in the workplace, but were also directly competing with each other due to low base salaries and commission-based bonuses. However, a theme that has not been analyzed by scholars of Zola is the prominence of surveillance as a theme in the novel. Department store owners crafted brand-new advertising campaigns specifically targeting women. The use of male workers as a way to deter shoplifting, and the avoidance of police intervention when faced with thefts presented a new argument: that women are exploited not only for their labor but also for their money as consumers. This analysis shows that the development of modern commerce and capitalism furthered the harm that women faced as both workers and consumers.</p>", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY-NC 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

Participants felt for a unique target amongst uniformed distractors with their left hand only, right hand only, and with both hands simultaneously. Additionally, we asked how performance might vary when the distinguishing feature of the unique target was the same or different between the hands. Simultaneous bimanual search showed significantly more efficient search than the sequential unimanual search. Surprisingly, there was no appreciable difference between performance when searching for targets with the same and different features. This suggests that the advantage of searching bimanually isn’t due to sensory redundancy or perceptual advantages from shared features. Future research will investigate the role that action coupling might play in the bimanual search advantage.

SUMOylation requires an activating enzyme E1, conjugating enzyme E2, and E3 ligase to catalyze the attachment of SUMO peptide to substrates. Using synthetic biology techniques, we reconstituted the SUMOylation cascade in bacterial cells, aiding future research to be more efficient. We determine the activities of the SUMOylation enzymes expressed in the polycistronic SUMO construct using the quantitative FRET assay developed in our lab for CyPet-SUMO1 conjugation to substrate YPet fused-influenza A virus (IAV) M1 protein. In this project, we screened the CyPet protein expression of Polycistronic SUMO in 13 E.Coli strains to determine optimal bacteria for the assay. From the best performing strain, BL21 (DE3) PlysS, we performed double transformation of PolycistronicSUMO and IAV M1 constructs into bacterial cell culture for FRET-based SUMOylation conjugation assay. We also applied this system for SUMOylation inhibitor testing. In summary, using qFRET technology, we developed a novel synthetic biology approach for the SUMOylation cascade in bacterial cells. The synthetic biology approach for polycistronic SUMO cascade is a novel strategy to reconstitute the cascade reaction in bacterial cells.</p>", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY-NC 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

This is especially relevant regarding the American invasion of western Indigenous territories and the ongoing genocides of their peoples. This study examines this historical misrepresentation through cinematic portrayals of Indigenous Americans, and the reemerging accessibility of these portrayals through conversations with Large Language Models (LLMs) and related forms of layman’s historical research. Fifty-two progressive Western films were compiled by prompting OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Google’s Gemini and AI Studio, in addition to scraping the top Wikipedia results on Google’s search engine. These films were then analyzed on various aspects of positive and negative representation (and nonrepresentation). Through this analysis, the inadequacies of LLM’s in understanding historical and cultural ethics as they pertain to modern sensibilities is illuminated. By evaluating critical dimensions in casting practices, trope prevalence, and narrative framing in the selected films, an image of a continuing and evolving cultural genocide emerges. The findings suggest that the integration of LLMs in research practices only exacerbates the spread of misinformation, undermining efforts by Indigenous academics and filmmakers to challenge reductive stereotypes. This research advocates for enhanced digital literacy and critical engagement with AI-driven tools to mitigate their detrimental effects on historical understanding and cultural representation, contributing to a broader discourse on the ethical implications of AI and its role in the preservation and dissemination of marginalized histories.</p>", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY-NC 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.

However, the impact of praise on child development can differ based on the specific type of praise used. This study examined 250 parent-child dyads to investigate the impact of three forms of parental praise (i.e., process, person, and ambiguous) received at age 4 on children’s later problem-solving persistence at age 8. We hypothesized that process praise, highlighting child effort, would foster persistence, whereas person praise, emphasizing child characteristics, would undermine child persistence. Independent coders rated child-directed praise across a series of challenging parent-child tasks during a laboratory assessment at age 4. Children’s problem-solving persistence was assessed by separate sets of coders during these same tasks at age 4 and a set of similar parent-child interaction tasks at age 8. A linear regression analysis, which controlled for child sex, ethnicity, poverty, child IQ, total parental utterances, and prior persistence, revealed significant positive contributions of process praise and ambiguous praise to children's problem-solving persistence. In contrast, person praise predicted decreased persistence at age 8. These results reveal the nuanced effects of different parental praise types on children's ability to persist during challenging tasks. Future studies will test mediation models to examine how parental praise might influence long-term adaptation through child persistence. The current findings can inform parenting practices and early childhood interventions by emphasizing the importance of effort-based praise in fostering problem-solving persistence in children. </p>", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY-NC 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.
