Abstract: A determination of sin2 θ w based on measurements of elastic scattering of muon-neutrinos and muon-anti-neutrinos on atomic electrons is described. These purely leptonic processes were studied using the CHARM calorimeter exposed to neutrino and antineutrino wide-band beams at the CERN super proton synchrotron. A total of 83±16 neutrino-electron and 112±21 antineutrino-electron events have been detected. From the measurement of the ratio of muon-neutrino and muon-antineutrino cross-sections a value of sin2 θ w =0.211±0.037 was obtained.

Abstract: The cross-section ratio of neutral-current and charged-current semileptonic interactions of muon-neutrinos on isoscalar nuclei has been measured with the result:Rv=0.3093±0.0031 for hadronic energy larger than 4 GeV. From this ratio we determined the electroweak mixing angle sin2θW, wheremc is the charm-quark mass in GeV/c2. Comparison with direct measurements ofmw andmz determines the radiative shift of the intermediate boson mass Δr=0.077±0.025(exp.)±0.038(syst.), in agreement with the prediction. Assuming the validity of the electroweak standard theory we determined ϱ=0.990−0.013(mc−1.5)±0.009(exp.)±0.003(theor.).

Abstract: Measurements of coherent π0 production by muon-neutrinos and antineutrinos on nuclei in marble have been carried out using the CHARM neutrino detector in the CERN-SPS neutrino wide-band beam. We determined the cross sections σ ν = (96±42)×10 −40 cm 2 and σ ν = (79±26)×10 −40 cm 2 per average marble nucleus. Comparing these experimental results to theoretical predictions we evaluated the isovector axial vector neutral-current coupling constant ∣β∣ = 1.08±0.24, averaged over the neutrino and the antineutrino results, and found agreement with the prediction of the standard model, β = 1.0. From the ratio of coherent π0 production by neutral-current interactions observed in this experiment and of coherent π− production by charged-current interactions of antineutrinos measured in BEBC a value of ∣β∣ = 1.10±0.23 is derived.

Abstract: A low-energy muon neutrino beam was used to illuminate two similar fine-grained neutrino detectors placed at 123 m and 903 m from the beginning of the neutrino source. The fiducial masses of the “close” and the “far” detector were about 36 tons and 120 tons respectively. The average energy of the selected neutrino events was 1.5 GeV. Data were recorded for an integrated flux of about 1019 protons. Quasielastic charged current events initiated by νe's have been searched for and an upper limit of 2.7%, at 90% confidence level, is obtained for the fraction of νμ's transformed into νe's. For complete mixing this correspnds to a limit Δm2 ⩽ 0.20 eV2 for the transition νμ → νe and to a minimum value of the mixing parameter sin22θ = 0.04. In the same data sample we compared the rates in the two detectors of νμ-initiated charged current events, mainly of quasielastic type: we conclude that oscillations of νμ's to ντ's, and possibly heavier neutrinos, do not appear. For complete mixing the limit in this case is Δm2 ⩽ 0.29 eV2.

Abstract: A measurement of the ratio of electron-neutrino and muon-neutrino charged-current cross sections is reported. Using data collected in an exposure of the CHARM detector to a 160 GeV narrow-band neutrino beam at CERN we obtained σ νe ( CC ) σ νμ ( CC ) = 1.20 ± 0.11 . A ratio of the coupling constants g eνe g μνμ = 1.10 ± 0.05 at 〈Q 2 〉 ∽ 16 GeV 2 was derived in agreement with the universal coupling strength of the electron and muon families to the charged weak current.

Abstract: From the nucleon structure functions measured by the CHARM Collaboration in inclusive neutrino and antineutrino CC interactions we determined the QCD parameters ΛMS = 310 ± 140 (stat.) ± 70(syst.) MeV using the Furmanski- Petronzio method. With the same method we extrapolated the behaviour of the quark (q + q) and the gluon x-distributions up to Q2 = 10 000 GeV2 using perturbative QCD. The extrapolated structure functions are compared with recent results coming from the two-jet differential cross section in proton-antiproton interactions at √s = 540 GeV and Q2 = 2000 GeV2.

This paper describes the need for calibration of such calorimeters and how this was realized for the case of the CHARM fine-grained calorimeter. The energy and spatial response of the calorimeter to both hadronic and electromagnetic showers was measured in π and electron beams from 5 to 140 GeV. The results and resolutions are presented.

Abstract: A search for heavy neutrinos was conducted in the neutrino beam produced by the 400 GeV proton beam-dump and in the 400 GeV wide-band neutrino beam at CERN. A heavy neutrino associated with the τ lepton was searched for in the beam-dump experiment. No assumption on the nature of heavy neutrinos was made in the wide-band beam experiment. A search was made for neutrinos decaying into two electrons and a light neutrino. Since no events were observed, an upper limit on the neutrino mixing angles as a function of the neutrino mass is derived. The beam-dump experiment is sensitive to a neutrino mass range of 10–250 MeV and an upper limit at 90% confidende level on the square of the neutrino mixing angle of θ10 −10 was obtained for neutrino masses greater than 180 MeV. The wide-band neutrino experiment is sensitive to neutrinos with a mass in a larger range (10–490 MeV), and for masses greater than 250 MeV yields an upper limit on the square of the neutrino mixing angle of θ10 −6 .

Abstract: A search for fractionally chargedQ=1/3 (2/3) particles of different properties of interaction produced in (anti)neutrino-nucleus and in protonnucleus collisions was performed using the scintillator system of the CHARM neutrino detector at the CERN SPS. No events of the cases considered were found. In (anti)neutrino beams production was found to be less than a few times 10−5 per interaction of a beam particle. In a proton beam an upper limit on the production cross section of ∼10−40 cm2 was obtained.

Abstract: A search for decays of heavy neutrinos was conducted by the CHARM Collaboration in a prompt neutrino beam produced by dumping 400 GeV protons in a Cu target, and in the CERN wide-band neutrino beam produced by 400 GeV primary protons. No candidate event was found. In the beam-dump experiment heavy neutrinos have been assumed to be produced by mixing in charmed D meson decays. Neutrinos decaying into e+e−ve, μ+e−vμ, and μ+μ−vμ were searched for. Limits of |Uei|2, |Uμi|2 < 10−7 were obtained for neutrino masses around 1.5 GeV. In the wide-band experiment heavy neutrinos were assumed to be produced by neutral-current neutrino interactions in the CHARM calorimeter. Here a search was made for neutrinos decaying into a μ and hadrons. This experiment is sensitive to decays of neutrinos with mass in the range 0.5–2.8 GeV with limits of |Uμi|2 < 3 × 10−4 for masses around 2.5 GeV. These measurements extend our previous results in the mass range 10–400 MeV.

Abstract: The ratio of the coupling strengths of electron- and muon-neutrinos to the neutral weak current, derived from measurements of total semileptonic neutrino cross sections on an isoscalar target, is reported on. Using an enriched electron-neutrino beam with equal fluxes of νe and ν e produced by dumping the 400 GeV on beam of the CERN-SPS into thick copper targets (beam-dump), σ( NC ( (−) ν e ))/σ( CC ( (−) ν e )) = 0.406 −0.135 +0.145 is measured. Combining this value with the re we obtained in an exposure to a narrow band neutrino beam, the ratio of the coupling constants g ν e ν e /gνμvμ = =1.05−0.18+0.15 is derived, in good agreement with universal coupling strength of the electron- and muon-neutrino to the neutral weak current.

Abstract: The main goal of the KLOE experiment at the Frascati DAΦNE φ − factory is the study CP violation in kaon decays. The tracking device of the experiment is a drift chamber whose dimensions, 4 m of diameter and 3.3 m length, provide a large acceptance volume for the decay products of low momentum K L ( λ L =3.4 m ). A complete stereo geometry with 12.582 cells arranged in 58 layers guarantees a high and uniform efficiency in the reconstruction of the charged K L decays. Very light materials have been chosen both for the drift medium, a helium-based gas mixture, and for the mechanical structure, made of carbon fiber, to minimize multiple scattering and conversion of low-energy photons. The design requirements, the adopted solutions together with the calibration procedure and the tracking performances of the drift chamber are discussed.

Abstract: The main goal of the KLOE experiment at the Frascati DAPhiNE phi -factory is the study CP violation in kaon decays. The tracking device of the experiment is a drift chamber whose dimensions, 4 m of diameter and 3.3 m length, provide a large acceptance volume for the decay products of low momentum K-L (lambda(L) = 3.4m). A complete stereo geometry with 12.582 cells arranged in 58 layers guarantees a high and uniform efficiency in the reconstruction of the charged K-L decays. Very light materials have been chosen both for the drift medium, a helium-based gas mixture, and for the mechanical structure, made of carbon fiber, to minimize multiple scattering and conversion of low-energy photons. The design requirements, the adopted solutions together with the calibration procedure and the tracking performances of the drift chamber are discussed. (C) 2002 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.

Abstract: A ��-factory offers the possibility to select pure kaon beams. Neutral kaons from �� KSKL are produced in a pure J PC = 1- quantum state. Detection of a kaon at large (small) times tags a KS (KL). This allows to perform precise measurement of kaon properties, as for example lifetime, and to study time evolution of neutral kaon system. The distribution of ��t, the difference between the two neutral kaon decay times, where both kaons decay into a ��+��- pair, provides unique opportunities for testing quantum mechanics and CPT symmetry. Using the full 2004-2005 data sample (L = 1.5fb-1) collected with the KLOE detector at DAF��NE, the Frascati e+e- collider, we update results of quantum mechanics and CPT invariance tests. We are finalizing the determination K S lifetimes using about 1/3 the whole KLOE data set. The proper time distribution of KS �� +��- decays provides a competitive measurement of KS meson lifetime. �� Copyright owned by the author(s) under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike Licence.

Abstract: Population aging, reduced economic capacity, and neglecting the treatments for oral pathologies, are the main causal factors for about 3 billion individuals who are suffering from partial/total edentulism or alveolar bone resorption: thus, the demand for dental implants is increasingly growing. To achieve a good prognosis for implant-supported restorations, adequate peri-implant bone volume is mandatory. The Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) technique is one of the most applied methods for alveolar bone reconstruction and treatment of peri-implant bone deficiencies. This technique involves the use of different types of membranes in association with some bone substitutes (autologous, homologous, or heterologous). However, time for bone regeneration is often too long and the bone quality is not simply predictable. This study aims at engineering and evaluating the efficacy of modified barrier membranes, enhancing their bioactivity for improved alveolar bone tissue regeneration. We investigated membranes functionalized with chitosan (CS) and chitosan combined with the peptide GBMP1α (CS + GBMP1α), to improve bone growth. OsseoGuard® membranes, derived from bovine Achilles tendon type I collagen crosslinked with formaldehyde, were modified using CS and CS + GBMP1α. The functionalization, carried out with 1-ethyl-3-(3 dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide and sulfo-N-Hydroxysuccinimide (EDC/sulfo-NHS), was assessed through FT-IR and XPS analyses. Biological assays were performed by directly seeding human osteoblasts onto the materials to assess cell proliferation, mineralization, gene expression of Secreted Phosphoprotein 1 (SPP1) and Runt-Related Transcription Factor 2 (Runx2), and antibacterial properties. Both CS and CS + GBMP1α functionalizations significantly enhanced human osteoblast proliferation, mineralization, gene expression, and antibacterial activity compared to commercial membranes. The CS + GBMP1α functionalization exhibited superior outcomes in all biological assays. Mechanical tests showed no significant alterations of membrane biomechanical properties post-functionalization. The engineered membranes, especially those functionalized with CS + GBMP1α, are suitable for GBR applications thanks to their ability to enhance osteoblast activity and promote bone tissue regeneration. These findings suggest a potential advancement in the treatment of oral cavity problems requiring bone regeneration., (© 2024 Wiley Periodicals LLC.)

387. Effect of aliovalent substitution on the local structure of CaKFe 4 As 4 superconductor.

Author: Tomassucci G, Tortora L, Minati F, Russo M, Duchenko A, Varsano F, Masi A, Campi G, Simonelli L, Martin-Diaconesu V, Boeri L, Mizokawa T, and Saini NL
Abstract: We have investigated the local structure of the iron-based CaKFe 4 As 4 superconductor featuring distinct aliovalent substitutions at the Ca and K sites, that is CaKFe 4 As 4 , CaK 0.9 Sr 0.1 Fe 4 As 4 , CaK 0.9 Ba 0.1 Fe 4 As 4 and Ca 0.9 Na 0.1 K 0.9 Ba 0.1 Fe 4 As 4 . Temperature-dependent Fe K-edge extended x-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) measurements are used to determine the near-neighbors bondlengths and their stiffness. The EXAFS analysis reveals that the Fe-As bondlength undergoes negligible changes by substitution, however, the Fe-Fe bondlength and the As height are affected by the Sr substitution. The superconducting transition temperatures of CaK 0.9 Sr 0.1 Fe 4 As 4 and CaK 0.9 Ba 0.1 Fe 4 As 4 are very similar even if the mean As heights are significantly different suggesting that the anion height may not be a unique parameter to describe the superconductivity in CaKFe 4 As 4 . The mean As heights show a peculiar temperature dependence characteristic of CaKFe 4 As 4 system. Furthermore, the temperature-dependent mean square relative displacements reveal similar Fe-Fe bond stiffness in all samples, instead the Fe-As bond is substantially stiffer in case of CaK 0.9 Sr 0.1 Fe 4 As 4 . The local structure results are discussed in relation to the differing transport properties of aliovalent substituted 1144 superconductor., (Creative Commons Attribution license.)

388. Anisotropic atomic displacements, local orthorhombicity and anomalous local magnetic moment in Ba 0.6 K 0.4 Fe 2 As 2 superconductor.

Author: Tortora L, Tomassucci G, Pugliese GM, Hacisalihoglu MY, Simonelli L, Marini C, Das G, Ishida S, Iyo A, Eisaki H, Mizokawa T, and Saini NL
Abstract: We have investigated the in-plane local structure of the Ba 0.6 K 0.4 Fe 2 As 2 superconductor by polarized Fe K-edge extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) measurements with temperature. The near neighbor bond distances and their stiffness, measured by polarized EXAFS in two orthogonal directions, are different suggesting in-plane anisotropy of the atomic displacements and local orthorhombicity in the title system. The X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) spectra reveal anisotropy of valence electronic structure that changes anomalously below ∼100 K. The local iron magnetic moment, measured by Fe Kβ X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES), increases below the anomalous temperature and shows a decrease in the vicinity of the superconducting transition temperature ( T c ∼ 36 K). The results provide a clear evidence of coupled local lattice, electronic and magnetic degrees of freedom to induce possible nematic fluctuations in an optimally hole doped iron-based superconductor.

389. Morphological and chemical changes in nuclear graphite target under vacuum and high-temperature conditions.

Author: De Rosa S, Colantoni E, Branchini P, Orestano D, Passeri A, Bussetti G, Centofante L, Corradetti S, Marsotto M, Battocchio C, Riccucci C, and Tortora L
Abstract: Nuclear-grade graphite is a high-efficiency material, widely used for vacuum applications in nuclear reactors and accelerators as targets facing particle beams. In these contexts, graphite is often exposed to extreme thermal stresses altering its physical and chemical properties. The thermal-induced release of volatile contaminants from targets and the damage of structural components are critical issues that can affect the safety and operation efficiency of beamline facilities. Here, we provide for the first time a detailed picture of the chemical and morphological changes occurring in a nuclear-grade graphite target, obtained through Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM), when exposed in vacuum to high temperatures. The radial temperature gradient induced by the impact of a pulsed energetic (MeV- GeV range) focused particle beams was reproduced by cyclically heating, in the 1300-1800 K temperature range, a disc-shaped graphite target in a vacuum setup. An accurate surface and in-depth chemical analysis of the graphite target was obtained thanks to the high sensitivity (ppm/ppb) of the Time-of-Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) technique. The chemical maps clearly show the presence of several metal oxides and impurities in the surface and subsurface regions of the untreated sample. Such contaminants were removed because of the thermal treatment in vacuum more or less efficiently, as demonstrated by Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), and ToF-SIMS. However, Raman spectroscopy and SEM-EDS revealed that the high-temperature treatment induces a decrease in the crystallite size of the graphite as well as changes in the target surface porosity with the appearance of microvoids, leading the graphite target to be more prone to the breakage., Competing Interests: The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper., (© 2024 The Authors.)

390. Nano-protrusions in intercalated graphite: understanding the structural and electronic effects through DFT.

Author: Bouaamlat H, Seitsonen AP, Bussetti G, Yivlialin R, De Rosa S, Branchini P, and Tortora L
Abstract: Complex phenomena characterize the intercalation of ions inside stratified crystals. Their comprehension is crucial in view of exploiting the intercalation mechanism to change the transport properties of the crystal or obtaining a fine control of crystal delamination. In particular, the relationship between the concentration and nature of intercalated ions and surface structural modifications of the host stratified crystal is still under debate. Here, we discuss a theoretical effort to provide a rationale for some structural changes observed on the highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) surface after electrochemical treatment in perchloric and sulphuric acid solutions. The formation of the so-called nano-protrusions on the basal plane of intercalated graphite was previously observed with scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). In this work, we employed both STM and density functional theory (DFT) simulations to elucidate the physical and chemical mechanisms driving the emergence of these nano-protrusions. The DFT results show that, in a bilayer graphene system, the presence of a single ion can generate a nano-protrusion with 2.49 Å height and 21.27 Å width. In the deformed area, the C-C bond length is stretched by about 2.5% more than the normal graphene bond. These values are of the same dimensional scale as those reported in previous STM experimental results. 25 However, the simulated STM images obtained by increasing the amount of intercalated ions per area suggest that the presence of more than one ion is needed for the deformation of the uppermost graphite layer during the early stages of intercalation. In contrast, in a multilayer graphene system, no significant surface deformation is detected when ions are intercalated between the third and fourth layers. Charge analysis indicates an altered distribution of the charges as a consequence of the intercalation. The charge transfer from graphene layers to the intercalated ions results in a surface layer more prone to oxidation.

391. How Chicago's Past Resulted in Disproportionate Lead Poisoning of Minority Children of the Present: A Narrative Review.

Author: Goodwin G, Belok T, Bengio M, Winners B, Fan K, Garey M, Scumpia AJ, Marra EM, and Tortora L
Abstract: Chicago's lead problem has been shown to disproportionately affect populations of color and lower socioeconomic status (SES). The disproportionate effects on low-income areas and communities of color can be traced back to several key decisions in Chicago's history. A search of the National Library of Medicine's MEDLINE/PubMed as well as Google, and Google Scholar was performed to find all articles relating to lead poisoning in Chicago, lead utilization, Chicago's municipal and political history, and lead physiology between May 2020 and May 2023. Additionally, several studies and textbooks were reviewed regarding the latest advancements in lead poisoning. The study identified several key political moves over the course of Chicago's history that have resulted in disproportionate toxicity in minority populations and those of lower SES. Lead is more readily absorbed in the pediatric population. Additionally, prior regulations had published acceptable blood lead levels (BLLs) in children, but more recent evidence indicates a myriad of detrimental effects in BLLs below that cutoff. There is substantial evidence to suggest that there is no acceptable BLL. Lead toxicity is generally improving nationally but there still exists a considerable need for improvement. Programs should be expanded to ensure that individuals living in communities most at risk of lead exposure have the means to both, replace lead-contaminated infrastructure, and to be able to supply these communities with affordable housing. From a physician and clinician standpoint, knowing the increased risk of lead poisoning in these populations should prompt earlier testing., Competing Interests: The authors have declared that no competing interests exist., (Copyright © 2024, Goodwin et al.)

392. Anisotropic Local Structure of SrFe 2- x Ni x As 2 (x = 0.00, 0.16, and 0.23) Superconductor Probed by Polarized X-ray Absorption Fine Structure Measurements.

Author: Hacisalihoglu MY, Tortora L, Tomassucci G, Simonelli L, and Saini NL
Abstract: We have investigated the effect of the Ni substitution on the local structure and the valence electronic states of the SrFe2-xNixAs2 (x = 0.00, 0.16, and 0.23) superconductor with a multi-edge extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) and X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy. The As K-edge and Fe K-edge EXAFS measurements in the two polarizations (E‖ab and E‖c) show a clear change in the local structure with Ni concentration. The near-neighbor bondlengths and the related mean-square relative displacements (MSRDs) decrease as the Ni content increases. The polarized XANES spectra at the As, Fe and Ni K edges reveal a systematic change in the anisotropy of the valence electronic structure. The results suggest that the quasi 2D electronic structure of this system tends to become more isotropic as the Ni content increases. The local structure and the valence electronic states are discussed in the frame of the evolving electronic transport of the SrFe2-xNixAs2 system.

393. Beyond Discrimination: Generative AI Applications and Ethical Challenges in Forensic Psychiatry.

Author: Tortora L
Abstract: The advent and growing popularity of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) holds the potential to revolutionise AI applications in forensic psychiatry and criminal justice, which traditionally relied on discriminative AI algorithms. Generative AI models mark a significant shift from the previously prevailing paradigm through their ability to generate seemingly new realistic data and analyse and integrate a vast amount of unstructured content from different data formats. This potential extends beyond reshaping conventional practices, like risk assessment, diagnostic support, and treatment and rehabilitation plans, to creating new opportunities in previously underexplored areas, such as training and education. This paper examines the transformative impact of generative artificial intelligence on AI applications in forensic psychiatry and criminal justice. First, it introduces generative AI and its prevalent models. Following this, it reviews the current applications of discriminative AI in forensic psychiatry. Subsequently, it presents a thorough exploration of the potential of generative AI to transform established practices and introduce novel applications through multimodal generative models, data generation and data augmentation. Finally, it provides a comprehensive overview of ethical and legal issues associated with deploying generative AI models, focusing on their impact on individuals as well as their broader societal implications. In conclusion, this paper aims to contribute to the ongoing discourse concerning the dynamic challenges of generative AI applications in forensic contexts, highlighting potential opportunities, risks, and challenges. It advocates for interdisciplinary collaboration and emphasises the necessity for thorough, responsible evaluations of generative AI models before widespread adoption into domains where decisions with substantial life-altering consequences are routinely made., Competing Interests: The author declares that the research was conducted in the absence of any commercial or financial relationships that could be construed as a potential conflict of interest., (Copyright © 2024 Tortora.)

394. In Vitro Viability Tests of New Ecofriendly Nanosystems Incorporating Essential Oils for Long-Lasting Conservation of Stone Artworks.

Author: Bartoli F, Corradi L, Hosseini Z, Privitera A, Zuena M, Kumbaric A, Graziani V, Tortora L, Sodo A, and Caneva G
Abstract: The study explores the application of natural biocides (oregano essential oil and eugenol, directly applied in solutions or encapsulated within silica nanocapsules) for safeguarding stone cultural heritage from biodeterioration, using green algae ( Chlorococcum sp.) and cyanobacteria ( Leptolyngbya sp.) as common pioneer biodeteriogens. Core-shell nanocontainers were built for a controlled release of microbicidal agents, a safe application of chemicals and a prolonged efficacy. The qualitative and quantitative evaluations of biocide efficiency at different doses were periodically performed in vitro, after six scheduled intervals of time (until 100 days). The release kinetics of composite biocide-embedding silica nanocapsules were characterized by the UV-Vis spectroscopy technique. Data showed both promising potential and some limitations. The comparative tests of different biocidal systems shed light on their variable efficacy against microorganisms, highlighting how encapsulation influences the release dynamics and the overall effectiveness. Both the essential oils showed a potential efficacy in protective antifouling coatings for stone artifacts. Ensuring compatibility with materials, understanding their differences in biocidal activity and their release rates becomes essential in tailoring gel, microemulsion or coating products for direct on-site application.

Abstract: Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNPs) are currently used in different fields like catalysis, nanomedicine, and conservation science, taking advantage of their high surface area. Here, we synthesized and functionalized mesoporous dendritic fibrous nanoparticles to realize a smart delivery system of protective agents for metals. Different MSNPs were obtained via the microemulsion method followed by a hydrothermal or refluxing treatment at different w/o ratios, times, and temperatures. Dendritic spherical silica nanoparticles with specific features such as an appropriate size (450 nm), a very large surface area (600 m 2 g -1 ), and a high yield synthesis (86%) were selected for surface modification. The fiber surface of the selected MSNPs was functionalized with 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane (3-APTES). 3-APTES works as a pH-driven "nanogate", suppressing the immediate leakage of the total guest molecule load and modulating the release as a function of pH conditions. Surface-modified MSNPs were tested as a reservoir of the most diffused corrosion inhibitors: Mercaptobenzothiazole (MBT) and 1H-Benzotriazole (BTA); their release properties were studied in solutions with pH = 4 and 7. Functionalized and non-functionalized MSNPs showed a good loading efficiency of guest molecules (34-64%) and a pH-dependent release of the corrosion inhibitors on a timescale of several hours.

397. Temperature dependent local inhomogeneity and magnetic moments of (Li 1- x Fe x )OHFeSe superconductors.

Author: Tomassucci G, Tortora L, Pugliese GM, Stramaglia F, Simonelli L, Marini C, Terashima K, Wakita T, Ayukawa S, Yokoya T, Kudo K, Nohara M, Mizokawa T, and Saini NL
Abstract: We have combined the extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) and X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) to investigate the local structure and the local iron magnetic moments of (Li 1- x Fe x )OHFeSe ( x ∼0.2) superconductors. The local structure, studied by Fe K-edge EXAFS measurements, is found to be inhomogeneous that is characterized by different Fe-Se bond lengths. The inhomogeneous phase exhibits a peculiar temperature dependence with lattice anomalies in the local structural parameters at the critical temperature T c (36 K) and at the spin density wave (SDW) transition temperature T N (130 K). Fe Kβ XES shows iron to be in a low spin state with the local Fe magnetic moment evolving anomalously as a function of temperature. Apart from a quantitative measurement of the local structure of (Li 1- x Fe x )OHFeSe, providing direct evidence of nanoscale inhomogeneity, the results provide further evidence of the vital role that the coupled electronic, lattice and magnetic degrees of freedom play in the iron-based superconductors.

398. The Local Structure and Metal-Insulator Transition in a Ba 3 Nb 5-x Ti x O 15 System.

Author: Pugliese GM, Capone FG, Tortora L, Stramaglia F, Simonelli L, Marini C, Kondoh Y, Kajita T, Katsufuji T, Mizokawa T, and Saini NL
Abstract: The local structure of the filled tetragonal tungsten bronze (TTB) niobate Ba3Nb5-xTixO15 ( x = 0, 0.1, 0.7, 1.0), showing a metal-insulator transition with Ti substitution, has been studied by Nb K-edge extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) measurements as a function of temperature. The Ti substitution has been found to have a substantial effect on the local structure, that remains largely temperature independent in the studied temperature range of 80-400 K. The Nb-O bonds distribution shows an increased octahedral distortion induced by Ti substitution, while Nb-Ba distances are marginally affected. The Nb-O bonds are stiffer in the Ti substituted samples, which is revealed by the temperature dependent mean square relative displacements (MSRDs). Furthermore, there is an overall increase in the configurational disorder while the system with Nb 4 d electrons turns insulating. The results underline a clear relationship between the local structure and the electronic transport properties suggesting that the metal-insulator transition and possible thermoelectric properties of TTB structured niobates can be tuned by disorder.

399. Predictors of severe outcome following opioid intoxication in children.

Author: Cohen N, Mathew M, Davis A, Brent J, Wax P, Schuh S, Freedman SB, Froberg B, Schwarz E, Canning J, Tortora L, Hoyte C, Koons AL, Burns MM, McFalls J, Wiegand TJ, Hendrickson RG, Judge B, Quang LS, Hodgman M, Chenoweth JA, Algren DA, Carey J, Caravati EM, Akpunonu P, Geib AJ, Seifert SA, Kazzi Z, Othong R, Greene SC, Holstege C, Tweet MS, Vearrier D, Pizon AF, Campleman SL, Li S, Aldy K, and Finkelstein Y
Subjects: Child, Emergency Service, Hospital, Female, Hospital Mortality, Humans, Prospective Studies, Retrospective Studies, Analgesics, Opioid, Fentanyl
Abstract: Introduction: While the opioid crisis has claimed the lives of nearly 500,000 in the U.S. over the past two decades, and pediatric cases of opioid intoxications are increasing, only sparse data exist regarding risk factors for severe outcome in children following an opioid intoxication. We explore predictors of severe outcome (i.e., intensive care unit [ICU] admission or in-hospital death) in children who presented to the Emergency Department with an opioid intoxication., Methods: In this prospective cohort study we collected data on all children (0-18 years) who presented with an opioid intoxication to the 50 medical centers in the US and two international centers affiliated with the Toxicology Investigators Consortium (ToxIC) of the American College of Medical Toxicology, from August 2017 through June 2020, and who received a bedside consultation by a medical toxicologist. We collected relevant demographic, clinical, management, disposition, and outcome data, and we conducted a multivariable logistic regression analysis to explore predictors of severe outcome. The primary outcome was a composite severe outcome endpoint, defined as ICU admission or in-hospital death. Covariates included sociodemographic, exposure and clinical characteristics., Results: Of the 165 (87 females, 52.7%) children with an opioid intoxication, 89 (53.9%) were admitted to ICU or died during hospitalization, and 76 did not meet these criteria. Seventy-four (44.8%) children were exposed to opioids prescribed to family members. Fentanyl exposure (adjusted OR [aOR] = 3.6, 95% CI: 1.0-11.6; p = 0.03) and age ≥10 years (aOR = 2.5, 95% CI: 1.2-4.8; p = 0.01) were independent predictors of severe outcome., Conclusions: Children with an opioid toxicity that have been exposed to fentanyl and those aged ≥10 years had 3.6 and 2.5 higher odds of ICU admission or death, respectively, than those without these characteristics. Prevention efforts should target these risk factors to mitigate poor outcomes in children with an opioid intoxication.

400. Virtual reality interventions for victims of crime: A systematic review.

Author: Parmigiani G, Tortora L, Meynen G, Mandarelli G, and Ferracuti S
Subjects: Crime, Humans, Stress Disorders, Post-Traumatic therapy, Virtual Reality, Virtual Reality Exposure Therapy methods
Abstract: In the forensic field, most studies employing virtual reality (VR) interventions have focused on offenders. The validity and safety of VR applications for victims of crime are still unclear. Following PRISMA guidelines, a systematic review on VR interventions for crime victims was performed to assess the efficacy, acceptability by patients, and cost-effectiveness of these interventions compared to in-person care. We identified 34 potentially eligible studies from 188 records obtained from database searches (Medline/Pubmed, CINAHL, PsycINFO, Web of Science, and Scopus); four additional articles were identified via alternative sources. In total, nine articles were included for the qualitative synthesis. Patient satisfaction with VR interventions was found to be equivalent to face-to-face interventions. Both VR exposure and control groups found relief from posttraumatic symptoms, with differences either statistically insignificant or in favor of VR. Despite the increased costs linked to the technology required, VR appears to be a promising alternative to in vivo exposure, but further research is needed. Limitations of the review include the varied experimental protocols, which did not allow us to conduct a quantitative analysis and comparison of findings across different studies, and the generally poor quality of the studies included. Further research, preferably in larger groups, is needed to shed more light on the effectiveness of VR interventions for traumatized victims of crime., (© 2022 The Authors.
