Abstract

We experience air traffic delays every day, but are there any recurrent patterns in these delays? In this study, we investigate the recurrence of delay propagation patterns in Japan's domestic air transport network in 2019 by integrating delay causality networks and temporal network analysis. Additionally, we examine characteristics unique to delay propagation by comparing delay causality networks with corresponding randomized networks generated by a directed configuration model. As a result, we found that the structure of the delay propagation patterns can be classified into several groups. The identified groups exhibit statistically significant differences in total delay time and average out-degree, with different airports playing central roles in spreading delays. The results also suggest that some delay propagation patterns are particularly prominent during specific times of the year, which could be influenced by Japan's seasonal and geographical factors. Moreover, we discovered that specific network motifs appear significantly more (or less) frequently in delay causality networks than their corresponding randomized counterparts. This characteristic is particularly pronounced in groups with more significant delays. These results suggest that delays propagate following specific directional patterns, which could significantly contribute to predicting air traffic delays. We expect the present study to trigger further research on recurrent and non-recurrent natures of air traffic delay propagation., Comment: 21 pages, 15 figures, 1 table

Abstract

BackgroundGlioblastoma is characterized by neovascularization and diffuse infiltration into the adjacent tissue. T2*-based dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) MR perfusion images provide useful measurements of the biomarkers associated with tumor perfusion. This study aimed to distinguish infiltrating tumors from vasogenic edema in glioblastomas using DSC-MR perfusion images.MethodsData were retrospectively collected from 48 patients with primary IDH-wild-type glioblastoma and 24 patients with meningiomas (Edemas-M). First, we attempted histological verification of cell density, Ki-67 index, and microvessel areas to distinguish between non-contrast-enhancing tumors (NETs) and edema (Edemas) which were obtained from stereotactically fused T2-weighted and perfusion images. This was performed for evaluating enhancing tumors (ETs), NETs, and Edemas. Second, we also performed radiological verification to distinguish NETs from Edemas. Two neurosurgeons manually assigned the regions of interests (ROIs) to ETs, NETs, and Edemas. The DSC-MR perfusion imaging-derived parameters calculated for each ROI included the cerebral blood volume (CBV), cerebral blood flow (CBF), and mean transit time (MTT).ResultsCell density and microvessel area were significantly higher in NETs than those in Edemas (pConclusionsDSC-MR perfusion images may prove useful in differentiating NETs from Edemas in non-contrast T2 hyperintensity regions of glioblastoma.

Abstract

Summary: The use of pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) to generate functional organs via blastocyst complementation is a cutting-edge strategy in regenerative medicine. However, existing models that use this method for heart generation do not meet expectations owing to the complexity of heart development. Here, we investigated a Mesp1/2 deficient mouse model, which is characterized by abnormalities in the cardiac mesodermal cells. The injection of either mouse or rat PSCs into Mesp1/2 deficient mouse blastocysts led to successful heart generation. In chimeras, the resulting hearts were predominantly composed of rat cells; however, their functionality was limited to the embryonic developmental stage on day 12.5. These results present the functional limitation of the xenogeneic heart, which poses a significant challenge to the development in mouse–rat chimeras.

Abstract

Background: Improving diets requires an awareness of the need to limit foods for which excessive consumption is a health problem. Since there are limited reports on the link between this awareness and mortality risk, we examined the association between awareness of limiting food intake (energy, fat, and sweets) and all-cause mortality in a Japanese cohort study. Methods: Participants comprised 58,772 residents (27,294 men; 31,478 women) aged 35–69 years who completed baseline surveys of the Japan Multi-Institutional Collaborative Cohort Study from 2004 to 2014. Hazard ratios (HRs) for all-cause mortality and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated by sex using a Cox proportional hazard model, with adjustment for related factors. Mediation analysis with fat intake as a mediator was also conducted. Results: The mean follow-up period was 11 years, and 2,516 people died. Estimated energy and fat intakes according to the Food Frequency Questionnaire were lower in those with awareness of limiting food intake than in those without this awareness. Women with awareness of limiting fat intake showed a significant decrease in mortality risk (HR 0.73; 95% CI, 0.55–0.94). Mediation analysis revealed that this association was due to the direct effect of the awareness of limiting fat intake and that the total effect was not mediated by actual fat intake. Awareness of limiting energy or sweets intake was not related to mortality risk reduction. Conclusion: Awareness of limiting food intake had a limited effect on reducing all-cause mortality risk.

Abstract

The proximity effect in normal/superconductor heterostructures is an intriguing phenomenon in that the normal side takes on the properties of a superconductor with an induced gap. However, the structural and pinning properties of vortices inside the normal regions remain poorly understood. Here, we report structure and superconducting properties of a proximity-coupled Mg/MgO/MgB2 system with ~30 vol. % of superconducting MgB2, in which MgB2 nanograins are distributed in a fractal manner to form a proximity network with clean interfaces. Conductivity and magnetic measurements demonstrate that this proximity-coupled system acts as a fully phase coherent superconductor with isotropic pinning. Magneto-optical imaging also reveals a rather homogeneous flux density distribution with no apparent granularity. Furthermore, we observe quantized proximity vortices and their clustering behavior by scanning superconducting quantum interface device microscopy. These results show that in contrast to the case of conventional granular superconductors, the grain boundaries in the present sample carry high critical currents and have high vortex pinning efficiency, resulting in a robust phase coherent state irrespective of the low volume fraction of the MgB2 nanograins. This finding not only reveals the features of proximity-induced vortices, but also demonstrates an excellent phase-locked capability of the proximity-coupled fractal system., Comment: 26 pages, 5 figures and 4 Supplemental figures

Abstract

Abstract Tendons, complex fibrous structures, are subjected to great tensions, which can give rise to the so-called tendinopathies. This study aimed to evaluate photobiomodulation and human Amniotic Membrane applied as single or combined therapies to treat induced Achilles tendon lesions. Seventy-five rats were divided into five groups (n=15): C- control Sham surgery; I- tendon injury; LA- tendon injury treated with photobiomodulation; AM- tendon injury treated with Amniotic Membrane; LAM- tendon injury + photobiomodulation and Amniotic Membrane, subdivided into three groups (n=5) with analysis at 3, 7, and 14 days. The tendon injuries were made with a 20 g weight released from a mini guillotine onto the ankle in dorsiflexion. AM and LAM groups received an Amniotic Membrane fragment while LA and LAM groups received transcutaneous photobiomodulation, using a 660 nm wavelength laser. The inflammatory cells showed statistical differences between groups C and I (p

Abstract

Abstract Microactuators are essential for advances in micro-optics, ultrasonic transducers and microsensors, and there is a growing demand for miniaturization and improved power. Here we demonstrate the actuation of micromechanical structures based on spin-current volume effect using an amorphous magnetic film of TbFeCo with volume magnetostriction. A 2 mm-diameter circular polyimide diaphragm coated with thin TbFeCo/non-magnetic metal films is prepared as the micromechanical structure. When an alternating charge current flows through the TbFeCo/non-magnetic metal films on the diaphragm under an external magnetic field orthogonal to the charge current, an alternating spin-current flows in the non-magnetic metal film due to the spin-Hall effect. In the spin-current volume effect, the spin-current transports angular momentum from the non-magnetic metal to TbFeCo film, and the spin-transfer torque modulates the magnetization fluctuation of the TbFeCo film, causing the diaphragm to vibrate due to spin-lattice coupling. The power density of the TbFeCo/Pt films actuator is larger than 1.17 × 106 W m−3 at 20 mA charge current under 7.2 kOe magnetic field. This value is much higher than that of various existing film-type microactuators. This spin-current volume effect is effective as a new actuation mechanism for microactuators used in micro-optical systems, acoustic diagnostic equipment, and micro-fluidic systems etc.

Abstract

Background: Although many observational studies have demonstrated significant relationships between obesity and cardiometabolic traits, the causality of these relationships in East Asians remains to be elucidated. Methods: We conducted individual-level Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses targeting 14,083 participants in the Japan Multi-Institutional Collaborative Cohort Study and two-sample MR analyses using summary statistics based on genome-wide association study data from 173,430 Japanese. Using 83 body mass index (BMI)-related loci, genetic risk scores (GRS) for BMI were calculated, and the effects of BMI on cardiometabolic traits were examined for individual-level MR analyses using the two-stage least squares estimator method. The β-coefficients and standard errors for the per-allele association of each single-nucleotide polymorphism as well as all outcomes, or odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals were calculated in the two-sample MR analyses. Results: In individual-level MR analyses, the GRS of BMI was not significantly associated with any cardiometabolic traits. In two-sample MR analyses, higher BMI was associated with increased risks of higher blood pressure, triglycerides, and uric acid, as well as lower high-density-lipoprotein cholesterol and eGFR. The associations of BMI with type 2 diabetes in two-sample MR analyses were inconsistent using different methods, including the directions. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that, even among the Japanese, an East Asian population with low levels of obesity, higher BMI could be causally associated with the development of a variety of cardiometabolic traits. Causality in those associations should be clarified in future studies with larger populations, especially those of BMI with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract

Nakaseomyces glabrata (Candida glabrata), the second most prevalent Candida pathogen globally, has emerged as a major clinical threat due to its ability to develop high-level azole resistance. In this study, two new 5,6-dihydrotetrazolo[1,5-c]quinazoline derivatives (c11 and c12) were synthesized and characterized using IR, LC-MS, 1H, and 13C NMR spectra. Along with 13 previously reported analogues, these compounds underwent in vitro antifungal testing against clinical N. glabrata isolates using a serial dilution method (0.125–64 mg/L). Remarkably, compounds c5 and c1 exhibited potent antifungal activity, with minimum inhibitory concentrations of 0.37 μM and 0.47 μM, respectively—about a 20-fold improvement in μM concentration over standard drugs like amphotericin B, caspofungin, and micafungin. A detailed structure–activity relationship analysis revealed crucial molecular features enhancing antifungal potency. Extensive molecular docking studies across 18 protein targets explored potential binding pockets and affinities of the lead compounds. A robust 3D-QSAR model, incorporating molecular descriptors Mor26m and Mor29e, displayed good predictive ability for antifungal activity. In silico predictions indicated an absence of herbicidal effect, negligible environmental toxicity (to honeybees, avian species, and aquatic organisms), and mild human toxicity concerns for these compounds. This comprehensive approach aims to develop novel and effective antifungal compounds against the clinically relevant pathogen N. glabrata.

Abstract

A study of initial-state gluon radiation (ISR) in hadron collisions is presented using Drell-Yan (DY) events produced in proton-antiproton collisions by the Tevatron collider at a center-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV. This paper adopts a novel approach which uses the mean value of the Z/$\gamma^*$ transverse momentum $$ in DY events as a powerful observable to characterize the effect of ISR. In a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9.4 fb$^{-1}$ collected with the CDF Run II detector, $$ is measured as a function of the Z/$\gamma^*$ invariant mass. It is found that these two observables have a dependence, $ = -8 + 2.2 \ln m_{DY}^2$ [GeV/c], where $m_{DY}$ is the value of the Z/$\gamma^*$ mass measured in units of GeV/$c^2$. This linear dependence is observed for the first time in this analysis. It may be exploited to model the effect of ISR and constrain its impact in other processes., Comment: 14 pages, 14 figures

Abstract

The mass of the W boson, a mediator of the weak force between elementary particles, is tightly constrained by the symmetries of the standard model of particle physics. The Higgs boson was the last missing component of the model. After observation of the Higgs boson, a measurement of the W boson mass provides a stringent test of the model. We measure the W boson mass, MW, using data corresponding to 8.8 inverse femtobarns of integrated luminosity collected in proton-antiproton collisions at a 1.96 tera-electron volt center-of-mass energy with the CDF II detector at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. A sample of approximately 4 million W boson candidates is used to obtain [Formula: see text], the precision of which exceeds that of all previous measurements combined (stat, statistical uncertainty; syst, systematic uncertainty; MeV, mega-electron volts; c, speed of light in a vacuum). This measurement is in significant tension with the standard model expectation.

Abstract

Abstract Selenoprotein P (SeP) is a major selenoprotein in serum predominantly produced in the liver. Excess SeP impairs insulin secretion from the pancreas and insulin sensitivity in skeletal muscle, thus inhibition of SeP could be a therapeutic strategy for type 2 diabetes. In this study, we examine the effect of sulforaphane (SFN), a phytochemical of broccoli sprouts and an Nrf2 activator, on SeP expression in vitro and in vivo. Treatment of HepG2 cells with SFN decreases inter- and intra-cellular SeP levels. SFN enhances lysosomal acidification and expression of V-ATPase, and inhibition of this process cancels the decrease of SeP by SFN. SFN activates Nrf2 in the cells, while Nrf2 siRNA does not affect the decrease of SeP by SFN or lysosomal acidification. These results indicate that SFN decreases SeP by enhancing lysosomal degradation, independent of Nrf2. Injection of SFN to mice results in induction of cathepsin and a decrease of SeP in serum. The findings from this study are expected to contribute to developing SeP inhibitors in the future, thereby contributing to treating and preventing diseases related to increased SeP.

Abstract

Chirality in a helimagnetic structure is determined by the sense of magnetic moment rotation. We found that the chiral information did not disappear even after the phase transition to the high-temperature ferromagnetic phase in a helimagnet MnP. The 2nd harmonic resistivity $\rho^{\rm 2f}$, which reflects the breaking down of mirror symmetry, was found to be almost unchanged after heating the sample above the ferromagnetic transition temperature and cooling it back to the helimagnetic state. The application of a magnetic field along the easy axis in the ferromagnetic state quenched the chirality-induced $\rho^{\rm 2f}$. This indicates that the chirality memory effect originated from the ferromagnetic domain walls., Comment: 8 pages, 8 figures

Abstract

Abstract Background (+)-Nootkatone (4) is a high added-value compound found in grapefruit juice. Allylic oxidation of the sesquiterpene (+)-valencene (1) provides an attractive route to this sought-after flavoring. So far, chemical methods to produce (+)-nootkatone (4) from (+)-valencene (1) involve unsafe toxic compounds, whereas several biotechnological approaches applied yield large amounts of undesirable byproducts. In the present work 125 cytochrome P450 enzymes from bacteria were tested for regioselective oxidation of (+)-valencene (1) at allylic C2-position to produce (+)-nootkatone (4) via cis- (2) or trans-nootkatol (3). The P450 activity was supported by the co-expression of putidaredoxin reductase (PdR) and putidaredoxin (Pdx) from Pseudomonas putida in Escherichia coli. Results Addressing the whole-cell system, the cytochrome CYP109B1 from Bacillus subtilis was found to catalyze the oxidation of (+)-valencene (1) yielding nootkatol (2 and 3) and (+)-nootkatone (4). However, when the in vivo biooxidation of (+)-valencene (1) with CYP109B1 was carried out in an aqueous milieu, a number of undesired multi-oxygenated products has also been observed accounting for approximately 35% of the total product. The formation of these byproducts was significantly reduced when aqueous-organic two-liquid-phase systems with four water immiscible organic solvents – isooctane, n-octane, dodecane or hexadecane – were set up, resulting in accumulation of nootkatol (2 and 3) and (+)-nootkatone (4) of up to 97% of the total product. The best productivity of 120 mg l-1 of desired products was achieved within 8 h in the system comprising 10% dodecane. Conclusion This study demonstrates that the identification of new P450s capable of producing valuable compounds can basically be achieved by screening of recombinant P450 libraries. The biphasic reaction system described in this work presents an attractive way for the production of (+)-nootkatone (4), as it is safe and can easily be controlled and scaled up.

Abstract

Abstract Objective: Although small fish are an important source of micronutrients, the relationship between their intake and mortality remains unclear. This study aimed to clarify the association between intake of small fish and all-cause and cause-specific mortality. Design: We used the data from a cohort study in Japan. The frequency of the intake of small fish was assessed using a validated FFQ. The hazard ratio (HR) and 95 % confidence interval (CI) for all-cause and cause-specific mortality according to the frequency of the intake of small fish by sex were estimated using a Cox proportional hazard model with adjustments for covariates. Setting: The Japan Multi-Institutional Collaborative Cohort Study. Participants: A total of 80 802 participants (34 555 males and 46 247 females), aged 35–69 years. Results: During a mean follow-up of 9·0 years, we identified 2482 deaths including 1495 cancer-related deaths. The intake of small fish was statistically significantly and inversely associated with the risk of all-cause and cancer mortality in females. The multivariable-adjusted HR (95 % CI) in females for all-cause mortality according to the intake were 0·68 (0·55, 0·85) for intakes 1–3 times/month, 0·72 (0·57, 0·90) for 1–2 times/week and 0·69 (0·54, 0·88) for ≥ 3 times/week, compared with the rare intake. The corresponding HR (95 % CI) in females for cancer mortality were 0·72 (0·54, 0·96), 0·71 (0·53, 0·96) and 0·64 (0·46, 0·89), respectively. No statistically significant association was observed in males. Conclusions: Intake of small fish may reduce the risk of all-cause and cancer mortality in Japanese females.

Abstract

Chirality is breaking of mirror symmetry in matter. In the fields of biology and chemistry, this is particularly important because some of the essential molecules in life such as amino acids and DNA have chirality. It is a long-standing mystery how one of the enantiomers was chosen at the beginning stage of life. The understanding of the emergence of homochirality under some conditions is indispensable for the study of the origin of life as well as pharmaceutical science. The chirality is also emergent in magnetic structures. The longitudinal helical magnetic structure is the chiral object composed of magnetic moments, in which the ordered direction of the magnetic moment spatially rotates in the plane perpendicular to the propagation vector (Fig. 1a). Since the sense of rotation, which is denoted as helicity, is reversed by any mirror operation, it is corresponding to the chirality. Here we show that the chirality of a longitudinal helical structure can be controlled by the magnetic field and electric current owing to the spin-transfer torque irrelevant to the spin-orbit interaction and probed by electrical magnetochiral effect, which is sensitive to the chiral symmetry breaking, in an itinerant helimagnet MnP. This phenomenon is distinct from the multiferroicity in transverse-type insulating helical magnets, in which the helical plane is parallel to the propagation vector, because the magnetic structure has polar symmetry not chiral one. While the combination of the magnetic field and electric current satisfies the symmetrical rule of external stimulus for the chirality control, the control with them was not reported for any chiral object previously. The present result may pave a new route to the control of chiralities originating from magnetic and atomical arrangements., Comment: 14 pages, 7 figures

Abstract

We report on a search for a spin-zero non-standard-model particle in proton-antiproton collisions collected by the Collider Detector at Fermilab at a center-of-mass-energy of 1.96 TeV. This particle, the $\phi$ boson, is expected to decay into a bottom-antibottom quark pair and to be produced in association with at least one bottom quark. The data sample consists of events with three jets identified as initiated by bottom quarks and corresponds to $5.4~\text{fb}^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity. In each event, the invariant mass of the two most energetic jets is studied by looking for deviations from the multijet background, which is modeled using data. No evidence is found for such particle. Exclusion upper limits ranging from 20 to 2 pb are set for the product of production cross sections times branching fraction for hypothetical $\phi$ boson with mass between 100 and 300 GeV/$c^2$. These are the most stringent constraints to date., Comment: submitted to PRD

Abstract

The fungal genus Trichoderma is a rich source of structurally diverse secondary metabolites with remarkable pharmaceutical properties. The chemical constituents and anticancer activities of the marine-derived fungus Trichoderma lixii have never been investigated. In this study, a bioactivity-guided investigation led to the isolation of eleven compounds, including trichodermamide A (1), trichodermamide B (2), aspergillazine A (3), DC1149B (4), ergosterol peroxide (5), cerebrosides D/C (6/7), 5-hydroxy-2,3-dimethyl-7-methoxychromone (8), nafuredin A (9), and harzianumols E/F (10/11). Their structures were identified by using various spectroscopic techniques and compared to those in the literature. Notably, compounds 2 and 5–11 were reported for the first time from this species. Evaluation of the anticancer activities of all isolated compounds was carried out. Compounds 2, 4, and 9 were the most active antiproliferative compounds against three cancer cell lines (human myeloma KMS-11, colorectal HT-29, and pancreas PANC-1). Intriguingly, compound 4 exhibited anti-austerity activity with an IC50 of 22.43 μM against PANC-1 cancer cells under glucose starvation conditions, while compound 2 did not.

Abstract

This paper presents a study of the production of a single $W$ boson in association with one or more jets in proton-antiproton collisions at $\sqrt{s}=1.96$ TeV, using the entire data set collected in 2001-2011 by the Collider Detector at Fermilab at the Tevatron, which corresponds to an integrated luminosity of $9.0$ fb$^{-1}$. The $W$ boson is identified through its leptonic decays into electron and muon. The production cross sections are measured for each leptonic decay mode and combined after testing that the ratio of the $W(\rightarrow \mu\nu)+$jets cross section to the $W(\rightarrow e\nu)+$jets cross section agrees with the hypothesis of $e$-$\mu$ lepton universality. The combination of measured cross sections, differential in the inclusive jet multiplicity ($W+\geqslant N$ jets with $N=1,\,2,\,3, \textrm{or }4$) and in the transverse energy of the leading jet, are compared with theoretical predictions., Comment: submitted to Phys. Rev. D

Abstract

The Collider Detector at Fermilab collected a unique sample of jets originating from bottom-quark fragmentation ($b$-jets) by selecting online proton-antiproton ($p\bar{p}$) collisions with a vertex displaced from the $p\bar{p}$ interaction point, consistent with the decay of a bottom-quark hadron. This data set, collected at a center-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}=$1.96 TeV, and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $5.4~\rm{fb}^{-1}$, is used to measure the $Z$-boson production cross section times branching ratio into $b\bar{b}$. The number of $Z\rightarrow b\bar{b}$ events is determined by fitting the dijet-mass distribution while constraining the dominant $b$-jet background, originating from QCD multijet events, with data. The result, $\sigma(p\bar{p} \rightarrow Z) \times \mathcal{B}(Z \rightarrow b\bar{b})= 1.11\pm 0.08(\text{stat}) \pm 0.14(\text{syst})~\text{nb}$, is the most precise measurement of this process, and is consistent with the standard-model prediction. The data set is also used to search for Higgs-boson production. No significant signal is expected in our data and the first upper limit on the cross section for the inclusive $p\bar p \rightarrow H\rightarrow b\bar b$ process at $\sqrt{s}=$1.96 TeV is set, corresponding to 33 times the expected standard-model cross section, or $\sigma = 40.6$ pb, at the 95\% confidence level.

Abstract

An ultrathin superconducting bilayer creates a coreless fractional vortex when only the second layer has a hole. The quantization is broken by the hole, and the normal core disappears. The magnetic flux is no longer confined near the normal core, and its density profile around the hole becomes similar to that of a cr\`eme caramel; the divergence of the magnetic flux density is truncated around the center. We propose basic design of a practical device to realize a coreless fractional vortex., Comment: 15 pages, 5 figures, The fourth version of the submission and the final update for arXiv. After this revision, the title is changed two times in a review process. In the first change, the title was "A vortex in a superconducting bilayer where one layer has a hole". The final title is "An unconventional vortex state in a superconducting bilayer where one layer has a hole"

Abstract

We report on a search for a spin-zero non-standard model particle in proton-antiproton collisions collected by the Collider Detector at Fermilab at a center-of-mass-energy of 1.96 TeV. This particle, the φ boson, is expected to decay into a bottom-antibottom quark pair and to be produced in association with at least one bottom quark. The data sample consists of events with three jets identified as initiated by bottom quarks and corresponds to 5.4 fb-1 of integrated luminosity. In each event, the invariant mass of the two most energetic jets is studied by looking for deviations from the multijet background, which is modeled using data. No evidence is found for such a particle. Exclusion upper limits ranging from 20 to 2 pb are set for the product of production cross sections times branching fraction for the hypothetical φ boson with mass between 100 and 300 GeV/c2. These are the most stringent constraints to date.
