A globally synthesized and flagged bee occurrence dataset and cleaning workflow (open access)

A globally synthesized and flagged bee occurrence dataset and cleaning workflow

Article describes how species occurrence data is foundational for research, conservation, and science communication, but the limited availability and accessibility of reliable data represents a major obstacle, particularly for insects, which face mounting pressures. The authors harmonized species names, country names, and collection dates and, we added record-level flags for a series of potential quality issues.

Room and Elevated Temperature Sliding Friction and Wear Behavior of Al0.3CoFeCrNi and Al0.3CuFeCrNi2 High Entropy Alloys (open access)

Room and Elevated Temperature Sliding Friction and Wear Behavior of Al0.3CoFeCrNi and Al0.3CuFeCrNi2 High Entropy Alloys

Article discusses how, in this study, processing–structure–property relations were systematically investigated at room and elevated temperatures for two FCC Al0.3CoFeCrNi and Al0.3CuFeCrNi2 high-entropy alloys (HEAs), also known as complex concentrated alloys (CCAs), prepared by conventional arc-melting. It was determined that both alloys exhibit FCC single-phase solid solution structure. Micro-indentation and sliding wear tests were performed to study the hardness and tribological behavior and mechanisms at room and elevated temperatures.

Measurement of the Intramolecular Hydrogen-Shift Rate Coefficient for the CH3SCH2OO Radical Between 314 and 433 K (open access)

Measurement of the Intramolecular Hydrogen-Shift Rate Coefficient for the CH3SCH2OO Radical Between 314 and 433 K

Article describes how the intramolecular hydrogen-shift rate coefficient of the CH3SCH2O2 (methylthiomethylperoxy, MSP) radical, a product formed in the oxidation of dimethyl sulfide (DMS), was measured using a pulsed laser photolysis flow tube reactor coupled to a high-resolution time-of-flight chemical ionization mass spectrometer that measured the formation of the DMS degradation end product HOOCH2SCHO. Measurements performed over the temperature range of 314–433 K yielded a hydrogen-shift rate coefficient of k1(T) = (2.39 ± 0.7) × 109 exp(−(7278 ± 99)/T) s–1 Arrhenius expression and a value extrapolated to 298 K of 0.06 s–1.

Evolutionary models of lateralization: Steps toward stigmergy? (open access)

Evolutionary models of lateralization: Steps toward stigmergy?

Article discusses an interesting approach to accounting for brain and behavioral asymmetry based on competition and cooperation in phenotypically asymmetric individuals. The model in question shows, in an almost fully analytical way, that under proper conditions, there exists an unequal number of equilibrium of left-and right-lateralized individuals.

Prevalence and factors associated with diagnosed diabetes mellitus among Asian Indian adults in the United States (open access)

Prevalence and factors associated with diagnosed diabetes mellitus among Asian Indian adults in the United States

Article describes how a higher prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) has been documented among South Asians living in the United States. However, combining the south Asian subgroups into one category makes the heterogeneity in the diagnosed DM, after controlling for known protective and risk factors. The authors assessed the association of Asian Indian ethnicity to diagnosed DM using a nationally representative sample of 1,986 Asian Indian adults in the US compared to 109,072 Non-Hispanic Whites (NHWs) using disaggregated data from the National health Interview Survey (2012-2016).

Dynamic cerebral autoregulation is intact in chronic kidney disease (open access)

Dynamic cerebral autoregulation is intact in chronic kidney disease

Article describes how chronic kidney disease patients experience an elevated risk for cerebrovascular disease, and a factor that may contribute to this is an impairment in dynamic cerebral autoregulation. The authors test their hypothesis by comparing dynamic cerebral autoregulation between CKD patients stages III-IV and matched controls (CON) without CKD.

An approach for reliably identifying high-frequency oscillations and reducing false-positive detections (open access)

An approach for reliably identifying high-frequency oscillations and reducing false-positive detections

Article states that high-frequency oscillation (HFO), classified as ripples (80-240 Hz) and fast ripples (240-500 Hz), is regarded as a promising biomarker of epilepsy. The authors presented an integrated, multi-layered procedure capable of automatically rejecting HFOs from a variety of common false positives, such as motion, background signals, and sharp transients.

Evaluation of pathways to the C-glycosyl isoflavone puerarin in roots of kudzu (Pueraria montana lobata) (open access)

Evaluation of pathways to the C-glycosyl isoflavone puerarin in roots of kudzu (Pueraria montana lobata)

Article describes how kudzu produces both O- and C-glycosylated isoflavones, with puerarin (C-glucosyl daidzein) as an important bioactive compound. The authors go on to explain how expression of recombinant UGTs in Escherichia coli and candidate C-glycosyltransferases in Medicago truncatula were used to explore substrate specificities, and gene silencing of UGT and key isoflavone biosynthetic genes in kudzu hairy roots employed to test hypotheses concerning the substrate(s) for C-glycosylation.
