Post-subsidy Era: Potential for Carbon Pricing in Industrial Fisheries among Global Major Fishing Countries

Author(s): Peng H; Hao J; Lyu L; Wan S; An C;

Industrial fishing's harmful subsidies fuel both a fish stock crisis and rising greenhouse gas emissions, even as calls for a global ban by the World Trade Organization persist amid slow progress. This study employs the framework of climate policy stringency assessment to examine fisheries subsidy reform through a carbon pricing lens. Using emissions, ...

Synthesis and Structural Analysis of an Emissive Colloidal Argyrodite Nanocrystal: Canfieldite Ag sub 8 /sub SnS sub 6 /sub

Author(s): Yarur Villanueva F; Quezada Novoa V; Rusch P; Toso S; Terban MW; Ivanov YP; Chu JC; Kirshenbaum MJ; Nikbin E; Gendron Romero MJ; Prato M; Divitini G; Howe JY; Wilson MWB; Manna L;

We resolve a phase identification controversy in the Ag-Sn-S material system by unraveling the polymorphic structure of nanocrystals within the argyrodite material family. Argyrodites are a class of superionic materials used in their bulk form for applications in solid-state batteries and thermoe ...

Differentiation of COVID-19 from other types of viral pneumonia and severity scoring on baseline chest radiographs: Comparison of deep learning with multi-reader evaluation

Author(s): Enshaei N; Mohammadi A; Naderkhani F; Daneman N; Abu Mughli R; Anconina R; Berger FH; Kozak RA; Mubareka S; Villanueva Campos AM; Narang K; Vivekanandan T; Chan AK; Lam P; Andany N; Oikonomou A;

Chest X-ray (CXR) imaging plays a pivotal role in the diagnosis and prognosis of viral pneumonia. However, distinguishing COVID-19 CXRs from other viral infections remains challenging due to highly similar radiographic features. Most existing deep learning (DL) models focus on differentiating COV ...

Mapping cerebral blood perfusion and its links to multi-scale brain organization across the human lifespan

Author(s): Farahani A; Liu ZQ; Ceballos EG; Hansen JY; Wennberg K; Zeighami Y; Dadar M; Gauthier CJ; Dagher A; Misic B;

Blood perfusion delivers oxygen and nutrients to all cells, making it a fundamental feature of brain organization. How cerebral blood perfusion maps onto micro-, meso- and macro-scale brain structure and function is therefore a key question in neuroscience. Here we analyze pseudo-continuous arter ...

Examining Sleep Quality in Adult Foster Care Alumni: Implications for Later Life Health and Well-Being

Author(s): Keller A; Mann-Feder V; Collin-Vézina D; MacKenzie MJ;

Background: Foster care alumni face increased health challenges across the domains of mental and physical health, yet there is a paucity of research examining the associations between care experiences, health, and sleep quality in alumni aged 30 and above. Objectives: Our exploratory mixed-method study examined the sleep quality of North American group ca ...

Understand the Changes in Motivation at Work: Empirical Studies Using Self-Determination Theory-Based Interventions

Author(s): Wang Z; Briand M;

Managers often need to stay motivated and effectively motivate others. Therefore, they should rely on evidence-based interventions to effectively motivate and self-motivate. This research investigated how self-determination theory-based interventions affect employees' motivation dynamics and motivational consequences within short time frames (i.e., wi ...

Affect, Disordered Eating Attitudes and Behaviors, and Orthorexia Nervosa Among Women: Mediation Through Intuitive Eating

Author(s): Khoshzad M; Maïano C; Morin AJS; Aimé A;

Intuitive eating is an adaptive eating style that could help explain part of the relation between affect and eating behaviors. However, research in this area remains limited. The objectives of this study are twofold. First, we examine the relation between affect, disordered eating attitudes and behaviors (DEABs), and orthorexia nervosa (ON). Second, we in ...

Engineered iron-sulfur carriers for efficient mixotrophic and sulfur autotrophic denitrification in low carbon to nitrogen ratio municipal wastewater: Mechanisms of biofilm enhancement and electron transfer promotion

Author(s): Yu S; Zhang X; Guo T; Li H; Liu W; Chen Z; Wang X; Ren B; Guo J;

Sulfur autotrophic denitrification (SAD) offers a sustainable solution for nitrogen removal in low carbon to nitrogen ratio (C/N) municipal wastewater, yet its efficiency and startup time pose significant challenges. To overcome these, we developed iron-sulfur-modified carriers (FeS@MC) and integrated them into an in-situ sequencing batch reactor (S-Fe-SB ...

Impairing the interaction between Erg11 and cytochrome P450 reductase Ncp1 enhances azoles antifungal activities

Author(s): Li W; Whiteway M; Hang S; Yu J; Lu H; Jiang Y;

Azole effectiveness against candidiasis can be compromised by Candida albicans resistance and tolerance, and unfortunately, few clinically useful compounds can enhance azole antifungal activities. We find that the amino acids V234, F235 and L238 of Erg11 are critical for its interaction with Ncp1, and the Ncp1-Erg11 association is important in azole respo ...
