Matthew S. McCluskey
- Abstract
Teacher turnover remains considerably higher at Charter Management Organizations (CMOs), despite initially high perceptions of fit at the time of hire. Grounded in an emerging branch-off of job embeddedness theory - teacher embeddedness - this multi-site case study of one urban CMO used interviews of departed teachers and principals and focus groups of new and veteran teachers to determine the predominating factors of reduced feelings of embeddedness and, ultimately, turnover. Findings indicate that teacher embeddedness is threatened by methods the CMO has proliferated as "best practice" and factors researchers have empirically correlated with turnover.

Cato Institute and Neal McCluskey
- Abstract
Over the past couple of years, school districts nationwide have seen a wave of challenges to books in libraries and on reading lists, as well as rising demands to know what titles are in schools. These challenges and demands have put public school libraries under significant scrutiny and raised fundamental questions about their purpose and operation. This policy analysis discusses the country's public school library situation, including who is supposed to control holdings and how acquisition works. Then it reports on a small experiment to address three questions: (1) Can the public see which books are in libraries; (2) do libraries contain potentially controversial books; and (3) can students access diverse views?

Condensed Matter - Soft Condensed Matter - Abstract
Neutron reflectometry is a critical tool for investigating the structure of thin films and interfaces. However, the misapplication of the Born approximation to reflection geometry leads some to assume that the minimum thickness that may be probed by neutron reflectometry is limited by the Q-range of the measurement. In this study, we use model-dependent analysis, multiple isotopic contrasts, and magnetic spin states, to show that it is possible to resolve structures significantly smaller than this perceived limit. To quantify this "analytical resolution", we employ Bayesian model selection, offering a robust and quantifiable comparison between different analytical models. We believe that this work offers pivotal insights for the analysis of neutron reflectometry and hope that it will contribute to more accurate and information-rich analyses in the future., Comment: 21 pages, 7 figures

Condensed Matter - Materials Science ,Physics - Applied Physics - Abstract
Kelvin probe microscopy (KPFM) is a well-established scanning probe technique, used to measure surface potential accurately; it has found extensive use in the study of a range of materials phenomena. In its conventional form, KPFM frustratingly precludes imaging samples or scenarios where large surface potential exists or large surface potential gradients are created outside the typical +/-10V window. If the potential regime measurable via KPFM could be expanded, to enable precise and reliable metrology, through a high voltage KPFM (HV-KPFM) adaptation, it could open up pathways towards a range of novel experiments, where the detection limit of regular KPFM has so far prevented the use of the technique. In this work, HV-KPFM has been realised and shown to be capable of measuring large surface potential and potential gradients with accuracy and precision. The technique has been employed to study a range of materials (positive temperature coefficient of resistivity ceramics, charge storage fluoropolymers and pyroelectrics) where accurate spatially resolved mapping of surface potential within high voltage regime facilitates novel physical insight. The results demonstrate that HV-KPFM can be used as an effective tool to fill in existing gaps in surface potential measurements while also opening routes for novel studies in materials physics., Comment: Main Text: 16 pages, 5 figures Supplementary information:4 pages, 2 tables and 2 figures

BACKGROUND: Dolutegravir (DTG) is a cornerstone of global antiretroviral (ARV) therapy (ART) due to its high efficacy and favorable tolerability. However, limited data exist regarding the risk of emergent integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI) drug-resistance mutations (DRMs) in individuals receiving DTG-containing ART. METHODS: We performed a PubMed search using the term Dolutegravir, last updated 18 December 2023, to estimate the prevalence of VF with emergent INSTI DRMs in people living with HIV (PLWH) without previous VF on an INSTI who received DTG-containing ART. RESULTS: Of 2131 retrieved records, 43 clinical trials, 39 cohorts, and 6 cross-sectional studies provided data across 6 clinical scenarios based on ART history, virological status, and co-administered ARVs: (1) ART-naïve PLWH receiving DTG plus two NRTIs; (2) ART-naïve PLWH receiving DTG plus lamivudine; (3) ART-experienced PLWH with VF on a previous regimen receiving DTG plus two NRTIs; (4) ART-experienced PLWH with virological suppression receiving DTG plus two NRTIs; (5) ART-experienced PLWH with virological suppression receiving DTG and a second ARV; and (6) ART-experienced PLWH with virological suppression receiving DTG monotherapy. The median proportion of PLWH in clinical trials with emergent INSTI DRMs was 1.5% for scenario 3 and 3.4% for scenario 6. In the remaining four trial scenarios, VF prevalence with emergent INSTI DRMs was ≤0.1%. Data from cohort studies minimally influenced prevalence estimates from clinical trials, whereas cross-sectional studies yielded prevalence data lacking denominator details. CONCLUSIONS: In clinical trials, the prevalence of VF with emergent INSTI DRMs in PLWH receiving DTG-containing regimens has been low. Novel approaches are required to assess VF prevalence with emergent INSTI DRMs in PLWH receiving DTG in real-world settings.

Androgen receptor (AR) drives prostate cancer (PC) growth and progression, and targeting AR signaling is the mainstay of pharmacological therapies for PC. Resistance develops relatively fast as a result of refueled AR activity. A major gap in the field is the lack of understanding of targetable mechanisms that induce persistent AR expression in castrate-resistant PC (CRPC). This study uncovers an unexpected function of active Stat5 signaling, a known promoter of PC growth and clinical progression, as a potent inducer of AR gene transcription. Stat5 suppression inhibited AR gene transcription in preclinical PC models and reduced the levels of wild-type, mutated, and truncated AR proteins. Pharmacological Stat5 inhibition by a specific small-molecule Stat5 inhibitor down-regulated Stat5-inducible genes as well as AR and AR-regulated genes and suppressed PC growth. This work introduces the concept of Stat5 as an inducer of AR gene transcription in PC. Pharmacological Stat5 inhibitors may represent a new strategy for suppressing AR and CRPC growth.

Condensed Matter - Materials Science - Abstract
$\beta$-Ga$_2$O$_3$ is a semiconductor with bandgap in the deep-UV ~ 5 eV. Due to its strong phonon-hole coupling, holes are self-trapped inhibiting bandgap luminescence at the deep-UV. In contrast, the self-trapped holes (STH) can exhibit a strong luminescence at ~ 3.5 eV. This research addresses the thermal response of the STH photoluminescence (PL), and the role of phonon interactions at temperatures 77 K - 622 K in nanocrystalline films. It was found that the PL intensity strongly diminishes as a function of increasing temperature with activation energy ~ 72 meV. A study of the Raman modes revealed that the intensity of the high frequency modes of the Ga$_I$O$_4$ site decrease with temperature, implying a phonon annihilation process. These modes, which have comparable energy to the STH activation energy, thus can couple to the STH and transition them from a radiative to a non-radiative regime in accordance with the configurational coordinate model at the strong phonon coupling limit. The significantly broad Gaussian linewidth of the PL is also a manifestation of a strong STH-phonon coupling. Furthermore, the peak position of the STH exhibited a negligible temperature response, in contrast to the redshift of ~ 220 meV of the bandedge of the film. In contrast to the intensity behavior of the high frequency Raman modes, the low frequency ones were found to follow the thermal Bose-Einstein phonon population.

- Abstract
This Australian university case study explores the transition to emergency, remote teaching (ERT) in an intensive Block Model curriculum during the COVID-19 pandemic. An online survey investigated academics' experiences of factors that helped or hindered their transition. A thematic analysis of the data revealed a symbiotic relationship between the Block Model curriculum, professional learning, and academics' sense of agency as they experienced their transition. We relate our findings to Whittle et al.'s 2020 framework and propose an extended framework based on how teaching was influenced by the changed environment. Drawing on the extended framework, we propose lessons for the future based on how academics were reflectively adapting to ERT. In the four-week Block Model, lessons were learned and applied in the subsequent Block. Critical lessons relevant to higher education institutions include increasing diversity of effective, un-invigilated assessment types, and fostering student wellbeing by facilitating learning spaces where students connect with peers and academics. Furthermore, academics need connections with peers and safe spaces in which to debrief on evolving situations and build confidence in using new learning technologies. Professional learning fostering an emergency-informed, safe learning environment effectively reduces isolation and better prepares institutions for future emergencies.

Astrophysics - Astrophysics of Galaxies - Abstract
Observational studies are finding stars believed to be relics of the earliest stages of hierarchical mass assembly of the Milky Way (i.e., proto-Galaxy). In this work, we contextualize these findings by studying the masses, ages, spatial distributions, morphology, kinematics, and chemical compositions of proto-galaxy populations from the 13 Milky Way (MW)-mass galaxies from the FIRE-2 cosmological zoom-in simulations. Our findings indicate that proto-Milky Way populations: i) can have a stellar mass range between $1\times10^{8}<\mathrm{M}_{\star}<2\times10^{10}[\mathrm{M}_{\odot}]$, a virial mass range between $3\times10^{10}<\mathrm{M}_{\star}<6\times10^{11}[\mathrm{M}_{\odot}]$, and be as young as $8 \lesssim \mathrm{Age} \lesssim 12.8$ [Gyr] ($1\lesssim z \lesssim 6$); ii) are predominantly centrally concentrated, with $\sim50\%$ of the stars contained within $5-10$ kpc; iii) on average show weak but systematic net rotation in the plane of the host's disc at $z=0$ (i.e., $0.25\lesssim\langle\kappa/\kappa_{\mathrm{disc}}\rangle\lesssim0.8$); iv) present [$\alpha$/Fe]-[Fe/H] compositions that overlap with the metal-poor tail of the host's old disc; v) tend to assemble slightly earlier in Local Group-like environments than in systems in isolation. Interestingly, we find that ~60% of the proto-Milky Way galaxies are comprised by 1 dominant system ($1/5\lesssim$M$_{\star}$/M$_{\star,\mathrm{proto-Milky Way}}$$\lesssim4/5$) and 4-5 lower mass systems (M$_{\star}$/M$_{\star,\mathrm{proto-Milky Way}}$$\lesssim1/10$); the other ~40% are comprised by 2 dominant systems and 3-4 lower mass systems. These massive/dominant proto-Milky Way fragments can be distinguished from the lower mass ones in chemical-kinematic samples, but appear (qualitatively) indistinguishable from one another. Our results could help observational studies disentangle if the Milky Way formed from one or two dominant systems., Comment: Accepted in MNRAS. 16 pages, 12 figures and 3 tables

Ferroelectric domain wall (DW) conductivity (DWC) can be attributed to two separate mechanisms: (a) the injection/ejection of charge carriers across the Schottky barrier formed at the (metal-) electrode-DW junction and (b) the transport of those charge carriers along the DW. Current-voltage (IU) characteristics, recorded at variable temperatures from LiNbO$_3$ (LNO) DWs, are clearly able to differentiate between these two contributions. Practically, they allow us here to directly quantify the physical parameters relevant for the two mechanisms (a) and (b) mentioned above. These are, e.g., the resistance of the DW, the saturation current, the ideality factor, and the Schottky barrier height of the electrode/DW junction. Furthermore, the activation energies needed to initiate the thermally-activated electronic transport along the DWs, can be extracted. In addition, we show that electronic transport along LiNbO$_3$ DWs can be elegantly viewed and interpreted in an adapted semiconductor picture based on a double-diode/double-resistor equivalent circuit model, the R2D2 model. Finally, our R2D2 model was checked for its universality by fitting the DWC data not only to z-cut LNO bulk DWs, but equally to z-cut thin-film LNO DWs, and DWC from x-cut DWs as reported in literature., Comment: 10 pages, 7 figures; with included supporting information (6 pages, 4 figures)

Condensed Matter - Statistical Mechanics ,Condensed Matter - Materials Science - Abstract
Self-diffusion coefficients, $D^*$, are routinely estimated from molecular dynamics simulations by fitting a linear model to the observed mean-squared displacements (MSDs) of mobile species. MSDs derived from simulation suffer from statistical noise, which introduces uncertainty in the resulting estimate of $D^*$. An optimal scheme for estimating $D^*$ will minimise this uncertainty, i.e., will have high statistical efficiency, and will give an accurate estimate of the uncertainty itself. We present a scheme for estimating $D^*$ from a single simulation trajectory with high statistical efficiency and accurately estimating the uncertainty in the predicted value. The statistical distribution of MSDs observable from a given simulation is modelled as a multivariate normal distribution using an analytical covariance matrix for an equivalent system of freely diffusing particles, which we parameterise from the available simulation data. We then perform Bayesian regression to sample the distribution of linear models that are compatible with this model multivariate normal distribution, to obtain a statistically efficient estimate of $D^*$ and an accurate estimate of the associated statistical uncertainty.

- Abstract
Ice-nucleating particles (INPs) are rare atmospheric aerosols that initiate primary ice formation, but accurately simulating their concentrations and variability in large-scale climate models remains a challenge. Doing so requires both simulating major particle sources and parameterizing their ice nucleation (IN) efficiency. Validating and improving model predictions of INP concentrations requires measuring their concentrations delineated by particle type. We present a method to speciate INP concentrations into contributions from dust, sea spray aerosol (SSA), and bioaerosol. Field campaign data from Bodega Bay, California, showed that bioaerosols were the primary source of INPs between -12° and -20°C, while dust was a minor source and SSA had little impact. We found that recent parameterizations for dust and SSA accurately predicted ambient INP concentrations. However, the model did not skillfully simulate bioaerosol INPs, suggesting a need for further research to identify major factors controlling their emissions and INP efficiency for improved representation in models.

High Energy Physics - Experiment ,High Energy Physics - Phenomenology ,Nuclear Theory - Abstract
A primary goal of the upcoming Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is to measure the $\mathcal{O}(10)$ MeV neutrinos produced by a Galactic core-collapse supernova if one should occur during the lifetime of the experiment. The liquid-argon-based detectors planned for DUNE are expected to be uniquely sensitive to the $\nu_e$ component of the supernova flux, enabling a wide variety of physics and astrophysics measurements. A key requirement for a correct interpretation of these measurements is a good understanding of the energy-dependent total cross section $\sigma(E_\nu)$ for charged-current $\nu_e$ absorption on argon. In the context of a simulated extraction of supernova $\nu_e$ spectral parameters from a toy analysis, we investigate the impact of $\sigma(E_\nu)$ modeling uncertainties on DUNE's supernova neutrino physics sensitivity for the first time. We find that the currently large theoretical uncertainties on $\sigma(E_\nu)$ must be substantially reduced before the $\nu_e$ flux parameters can be extracted reliably: in the absence of external constraints, a measurement of the integrated neutrino luminosity with less than 10\% bias with DUNE requires $\sigma(E_\nu)$ to be known to about 5%. The neutrino spectral shape parameters can be known to better than 10% for a 20% uncertainty on the cross-section scale, although they will be sensitive to uncertainties on the shape of $\sigma(E_\nu)$. A direct measurement of low-energy $\nu_e$-argon scattering would be invaluable for improving the theoretical precision to the needed level., Comment: 25 pages, 21 figures

Astrophysics - Astrophysics of Galaxies - Abstract
We study the kinematics of stars both at their formation and today within 14 Milky Way (MW)-mass galaxies from the FIRE-2 cosmological zoom-in simulations. We quantify the relative importance of cosmological disk settling and post-formation dynamical heating. We identify three eras: a Pre-Disk Era (typically >8 Gyr ago), when stars formed on dispersion-dominated orbits; an Early-Disk Era (~ 8 - 4 Gyr ago), when stars started to form on rotation-dominated orbits but with high velocity dispersion, sigma_form; and a Late-Disk Era (< 4 Gyr ago), when stars formed with low sigma_form. sigma_form increased with time during the Pre-Disk Era, peaking ~ 8 Gyr ago, then decreased throughout the Early-Disk Era as the disk settled and remained low throughout the Late-Disk Era. By contrast, the velocity dispersion measured today, sigma_now, increases monotonically with age because of stronger post-formation heating for Pre-Disk stars. Importantly, most of sigma_now was in place at formation, not added post-formation, for stars younger than ~ 10 Gyr. We compare the evolution of the three velocity components: at all times, sigma_R,form > sigma_phi,form > sigma_Z,form. Post-formation heating primarily increased sigma_R at ages < 4 Gyr but acted nearly isotropically for older stars. The kinematics of young stars in FIRE-2 broadly agree with the range observed across the MW, M31, M33, and PHANGS-MUSE galaxies. The lookback time that the disk began to settle correlates with its dynamical state today: earlier-settling galaxies currently form colder disks. Including stellar cosmic-ray feedback does not significantly change disk rotational support at fixed stellar mass., Comment: 23 pages, accepted for publication in MNRAS

30. Video Data Analysis and Police Body-Worn Camera Footage

- Abstract
Video data analysis (VDA) represents an important methodological framework for contemporary research approaches to the myriad of footage available from cameras, devices, and phones. Footage from police body-worn cameras (BWCs) is anticipated to be a widely available platform for social science researchers to scrutinize the interactions between police and citizens. We examine issues of validity and reliability as related to BWCs in the context of VDA, based on an assessment of the quality of audio and video obtained from that platform. Second, we compare the coding of BWC footage obtained from a sample of police-citizen encounters to coding of the same events by on-scene coders using an instrument adapted from in-person systematic social observations (SSOs). Findings show that there are substantial and systematic audio and video gaps present in BWC footage as a source of data for social science investigation that likely impact the reliability of measures. Despite these problems, BWC data have substantial capacity for judging sequential developments, causal ordering, and the duration of events. Thus, the technology should open theoretical frames that are too cumbersome for in-person observation. Theoretical development with VDA in mind is suggested as an important pathway for future researchers in terms of framing data collection from BWCs and also suggesting areas where triangulation is essential.

OBJECTIVE: We sought to evaluate the utility of a point-of-care (POC) urine tenofovir (TFV) assay, developed to objectively assess adherence, to predict HIV drug resistance (HIVDR) in people failing first-line antiretroviral therapy (ART). DESIGN: We retrospectively analyzed TFV levels as a biomarker of adherence in urine specimens collected during a clinical trial that enrolled adults with virologic failure on first-line ART in Uganda and South Africa. METHODS: Urine specimens were analyzed from participants on TFV-containing regimens who had a viral load >1000 copies/ml and paired genotypic resistance test (GRT) results. We assessed recent ART TFV adherence with a qualitative POC lateral flow urine assay with a cut-off value of 1500 ng/ml. We then calculated performance characteristics of the POC urine TFV assay to predict HIVDR, defined as intermediate or high-level resistance to any component of the current ART regimen. RESULTS: Urine specimens with paired plasma GRT results were available from 283 participants. The most common ART regimen during study conduct was emtricitabine, tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, and efavirenz. The overall prevalence of HIVDR was 86% ( n = 243/283). Of those with TFV detected on the POC assay, 91% ( n = 204/224) had HIVDR, vs. only 66% ( n = 39/59) among those with no TFV detected ( P- value < 0.001). Positive and negative predictive values of the assay to predict HIVDR were 91% and 34%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: In populations with a high prevalence of HIVDR, the POC urine TFV assay can provide a low-cost, rapid method to guide requirements for confirmatory resistance testing and inform the need for regimen change.

The rapid development of general-purpose computing on graphics processing units (GPGPU) is allowing the implementation of highly-parallelized Monte Carlo simulation chains for particle physics experiments. This technique is particularly suitable for the simulation of a pixelated charge readout for time projection chambers, given the large number of channels that this technology employs. Here we present the first implementation of a full microphysical simulator of a liquid argon time projection chamber (LArTPC) equipped with light readout and pixelated charge readout, developed for the DUNE Near Detector. The software is implemented with an end-to-end set of GPU-optimized algorithms. The algorithms have been written in Python and translated into CUDA kernels using Numba, a just-in-time compiler for a subset of Python and NumPy instructions. The GPU implementation achieves a speed up of four orders of magnitude compared with the equivalent CPU version. The simulation of the current induced on $10^3$ pixels takes around 1 ms on the GPU, compared with approximately 10 s on the CPU. The results of the simulation are compared against data from a pixel-readout LArTPC prototype., Comment: 26 pages, 15 figures

High Energy Physics - Experiment ,Physics - Instrumentation and Detectors - Abstract
Measurements of electrons from $\nu_e$ interactions are crucial for the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) neutrino oscillation program, as well as searches for physics beyond the standard model, supernova neutrino detection, and solar neutrino measurements. This article describes the selection and reconstruction of low-energy (Michel) electrons in the ProtoDUNE-SP detector. ProtoDUNE-SP is one of the prototypes for the DUNE far detector, built and operated at CERN as a charged particle test beam experiment. A sample of low-energy electrons produced by the decay of cosmic muons is selected with a purity of 95%. This sample is used to calibrate the low-energy electron energy scale with two techniques. An electron energy calibration based on a cosmic ray muon sample uses calibration constants derived from measured and simulated cosmic ray muon events. Another calibration technique makes use of the theoretically well-understood Michel electron energy spectrum to convert reconstructed charge to electron energy. In addition, the effects of detector response to low-energy electron energy scale and its resolution including readout electronics threshold effects are quantified. Finally, the relation between the theoretical and reconstructed low-energy electron energy spectrum is derived and the energy resolution is characterized. The low-energy electron selection presented here accounts for about 75% of the total electron deposited energy. After the addition of lost energy using a Monte Carlo simulation, the energy resolution improves from about 40% to 25% at 50~MeV. These results are used to validate the expected capabilities of the DUNE far detector to reconstruct low-energy electrons., Comment: 19 pages, 10 figures

Background: Iron-deficiency anaemia, occurring in 30–40% of patients undergoing cardiac surgery, is an independent risk factor for adverse outcomes. Our long-term goal is to assess if postoperative i.v. iron therapy improves clinical outcomes in patients with preoperative iron-deficiency anaemia undergoing cardiac surgery. Before conducting a definitive RCT, we first propose a multicentre pilot trial to establish the feasibility of the definitive trial. Methods: This internal pilot, double-blinded, RCT will include three centres. Sixty adults with preoperative iron-deficiency anaemia undergoing non-emergency cardiac surgery will be randomised on postoperative day 2 or 3 to receive either blinded i.v. iron (1000 mg ferric derisomaltose) or placebo. Six weeks after surgery, patients who remain iron deficient will receive a second blinded dose of i.v. iron according to their assigned treatment arm. Patients will be followed for 12 months. Clinical practice will not be otherwise modified. For the pilot study, feasibility will be assessed through rates of enrolment, protocol deviations, and loss to follow up. For the definitive study, the primary outcome will be the number of days alive and out of hospital at 90 days after surgery. Ethics and dissemination: The trial has been approved by the University Health Network Research Ethics Board (REB # 22-5685; approved by Clinical Trials Ontario funding on 22 December 2023) and will be conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki, Good Clinical Practices guidelines, and regulatory requirements. Clinical trial registration: NCT06287619.

Medicine - Abstract
Introduction Reduced thrombin generation is an important component of post cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) coagulopathy. To replenish coagulation factors and enhance thrombin generation in bleeding surgical patients, frozen plasma (FP) and four-factor prothrombin complex concentrate (4F-PCC) are used. However, the efficacy–safety balance of 4F-PCC relative to FP in cardiac surgery is unconfirmed.Methods and analysis LEX-211 (FARES-II) is an active-control, randomised, phase 3 study comparing two coagulation factor replacement therapies in bleeding adult cardiac surgical patients at 12 hospitals in Canada and the USA. The primary objective is to determine whether 4F-PCC (Octaplex/Balfaxar, Octapharma) is clinically non-inferior to FP for haemostatic effectiveness. Inclusion criteria are any index (elective or non-elective) cardiac surgery employing CPB and coagulation factor replacement with 4F-PCC or FP ordered in the operating room for bleeding management. Patients will be randomised to receive 1500 or 2000 international units of 4F-PCC or 3 or 4 units of FP, depending on body weight. The primary endpoint of haemostatic treatment response is ‘effective’ if no additional haemostatic intervention is required from 60 min to 24 hours after the first initiation of 4F-PCC or FP; or ‘ineffective’ if any other haemostatic intervention (including a second dose of study drug) is required. An estimated 410 evaluable patients will be required to demonstrate non-inferiority (one-sided α of 0.025, power ≥90%, non-inferiority margin 0.10). Secondary outcomes include transfusions, bleeding-related clinical endpoints, coagulation parameters and safety.Ethics and dissemination The trial has been approved by the institutional review boards of all participating centres. Trial completion is anticipated at the end of 2024, and results will be disseminated via publications in peer-reviewed journals and conference presentations in 2025. The results will advance our understanding of coagulation management in bleeding surgical patients, potentially reducing the need for allogeneic blood products and improving outcomes in surgical patients.Trial registration number NCT05523297.

Abstract Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) is a well‐established scanning probe technique, used to measure surface potential accurately; it has found extensive use in the study of a range of materials phenomena. In its conventional form, KPFM frustratingly precludes imaging samples or scenarios where large surface potential or surface potential gradients exist outside the typical ±10 V window. If the potential regime measurable via KPFM can be expanded, to enable precise and reliable metrology, through a high voltage KPFM (HV‐KPFM) adaptation, it can open up pathways toward a range of novel experiments, where the detection limit of regular KPFM has so far prevented the use of the technique. In this work, HV‐KPFM is realized and shown to be capable of measuring large surface potential and potential gradients with accuracy and precision. The technique is employed to study a range of materials (positive temperature coefficient of resistivity ceramics, charge storage fluoropolymers, and pyroelectrics) where accurate, spatially resolved mapping of surface potential within high voltage regime facilitates novel physical insight. The results demonstrate that HV‐KPFM can be used as an effective tool to fill in existing gaps in surface potential measurements while also opening routes for novel studies in materials physics.

Ophthalmology ,RE1-994 - Abstract
Objectives To assess needs and views regarding eye health and empowerment from craftswomen’s perspectives to develop a theory of change (ToC) for a women-targeted eyecare programme.Material and methods Eighteen stakeholders participated in a 2-day consultation workshop in Zanzibar. The composition was (1) 15 women and 3 men; (2) Unguja (n=8), Pemba (n=6) and Tanzania mainland (n=4) and (3) craftswomen (n=14) and governmental stakeholders (n=4). Thematic analysis determined the craftswomen’s needs and views regarding eye health and empowerment and subsequently inputs, activities, outputs, outcomes and impact to develop the programme’s initial ToC. In refining the initial ToC, we used insights from a qualitative study suggesting that improved near vision is perceived by craftswomen as a potential source of empowerment across economic, psychological, social, political and educational dimensions.Results The eye conditions experienced by the craftswomen were eye irritation caused by foreign bodies, the need for near spectacles and other eye morbidities. They were advised by the cooperatives to visit eye health centres for treatment. The main barriers to accessing services were inaccessibility and unaffordability of eye services and a lack of eye health knowledge and practices. Nineteen subthemes on women empowerment (economic n=4, social n=4, psychological n=6, education n=2 and political n=3) were obtained. We created a ToC on how investing in improving craftswomen near vision could achieve empowerment.Conclusion The participants provided insights into their needs and how they would like the eyecare programme to be implemented and how they see they could be empowered in the process.

- Abstract
Psoriasis is an inflammatory skin disorder that can present with clinically distinct phenotypes. Plaque psoriasis (also known as psoriasis vulgaris or PsV) is the most common form of the disease and is characterised by scaly plaques that typically appear on the elbows, knees and lower back. While the advent of biologics has transformed PsV treatment, the mechanisms mediating drug-induced remission are not fully characterised. Rare variants of psoriasis also exist. Among those, palmoplantar pustulosis (PPP) manifests with painful pustules that affect the palms or the soles. The pathogenesis of PPP has been the subject of very limited investigations, so that the disease remains poorly understood and difficult to treat. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) is a technique that allows the transcriptional profiling of individual cells, enabling a high-resolution characterization of immune responses in blood and solid tissues. Here, scRNA-seq was applied to the study of PPP pathogenesis and PsV drug response. In the first part of the project, peripheral blood mononuclear cells obtained from PPP cases and healthy controls were subject to scRNA-seq profiling. This demonstrated that the skin-homing T cells of affected individuals were markedly skewed towards a Th17 phenotype. The analysis also uncovered a double positive Th17/Th2 population, which was more abundant in cases compared to controls. Of note, pseudotime inference supported the presence of Th17 to Th2 plasticity. In the second part of the study, scRNA-seq was used to profile the skin of PsV individuals receiving the IL-23 inhibitor risankizumab. This analysis generated an atlas of PsV skin during disease and remission. It also revealed that IL-23 blockade influences cell-cell interactions, upregulating inhibitory signalling between regulatory T cells and myeloid cells. These results highlight the benefits of utilising scRNA-seq to further our understanding of psoriasis pathogenesis and disease resolution.

This article reflects on the Association for the Promotion of Political Economy and Law (APPEAL), formed in 2012 as the first contemporary scholarly group named for the emerging field of Law and Political Economy (LPE). APPEAL organizes academics and allies to address urgent social problems by exploring possibilities for reorienting the economy toward justice, equality, and democracy. To mobilize ideas for change, APPEAL emphasizes collaborative intellectual communities. I situate APPEAL in the context of a neoliberal political movement to capture law’s power by investing in the Law and Economics message that economic power inevitably limits democracy and social justice. Though vastly outmatched in funding, APPEAL brings together experts in economics, law, and other disciplines to clarify and change influential neoliberal ideas about both law and economics. I highlight APPEAL participants’ scholarship showing the interconnected social, political, and legal nature of economic power as the basis for transforming economic politics and policy.

Fundamentally, lithium niobate is an extremely good electrical insulator. However, this can change dramatically when 180{\deg} domain walls are present, as they are often found to be strongly conducting. Absolute conductivities depend on the inclination angles of the walls with respect to the [001] polarisation axis and so, if these inclination angles can be altered, then electrical conductivities can be tuned, or even toggled on and off. In 500nm thick z-cut ion-sliced thin films, localised wall angle variations can be controlled by both the sense and magnitude of applied electrical bias. We show that this results in a diode-like charge transport response which is effective for half-wave rectification, albeit only at relatively low ac frequencies. Most importantly, however, we also demonstrate that such domain wall diodes can be used to construct "AND" and inclusive "OR" logic gates, where "0" and "1" output states are clearly distinguishable. Realistic device modelling allows an extrapolation of results for the operation of these domain wall diodes in more complex arrangements and, although non-ideal, output states can still be distinguished even in two-level cascade logic. Although conceptually simple, we believe that our experimental demonstration of operational domain wall-enabled logic gates represents a significant step towards the future broader realisation of "domain wall nanoelectronics".

Driven by the availability of modern software and hardware, Bayesian analysis is becoming more popular in neutron and X-ray reflectometry analysis. The understandability and replicability of these analyses may be harmed by inconsistencies in how the probability distributions central to Bayesian methods are represented in the literature. Herein, we provide advice on how to report the results of Bayesian analysis as applied to neutron and X-ray reflectometry. This includes the clear reporting of initial starting conditions, the prior probabilities, and results of any analysis, and the posterior probabilities that are the Bayesian equivalent of the error bar, to enable replicability and improve understanding. We believe that this advice, grounded in our experience working in the field, will enable greater analytical reproducibility among the reflectometry community, as well as improve the quality and usability of results.

- Abstract
Young children's spatial reasoning is critical to mathematics learning from an early age. Recent reviews have drawn attention to the importance of mathematical experiences in the early years; however, an explicit focus on research in spatial reasoning can contribute to a more coherent account of the field. This paper reports a scoping review of qualitative studies (n = 37) during the years 2009-2021. The studies analysed in this review provide insight into children's embodied spatial concepts and non-verbal expressions such as gesture and the relationship between spatial reasoning and mathematics learning in early childhood (birth to 8 years). Four main themes were found: (i) children's manipulation and transformation of objects, (ii) children's bodily engagement with and within spaces, (iii) children's representation and interpretation of spatial experiences, and (iv) contexts for spatial learning. While the review illuminates a deeper awareness and a more holistic and embodied view of children's spatial competencies, there remains few studies focussed on children under three years of age. Future directions for ongoing research are identified.

Abstract Background Airway basal cells (BC) from patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) regenerate abnormal airway epithelium and this was associated with reduced expression of several genes involved in epithelial repair. Quercetin reduces airway epithelial remodeling and inflammation in COPD models, therefore we examined whether quercetin promotes normal epithelial regeneration from COPD BC by altering gene expression. Methods COPD BC treated with DMSO or 1 µM quercetin for three days were cultured at air/liquid interface (ALI) for up to 4 weeks. BC from healthy donors cultured at ALI were used as controls. Polarization of cells was determined at 8 days of ALI. The cell types and IL-8 expression in differentiated cell cultures were quantified by flow cytometry and ELISA respectively. Microarray analysis was conducted on DMSO or 1 µM quercetin-treated COPD BC for 3 days to identify differentially regulated genes (DEG). Bronchial brushings obtained from COPD patients with similar age and disease status treated with either placebo (4 subjects) or 2000 mg/day quercetin (7 subjects) for 6 months were used to confirm the effects of quercetin on gene expression. Results Compared to placebo-, quercetin-treated COPD BC showed significantly increased transepithelial resistance, more ciliated cells, fewer goblet cells, and lower IL-8. Quercetin upregulated genes associated with tissue and epithelial development and differentiation in COPD BC. COPD patients treated with quercetin, but not placebo showed increased expression of two developmental genes HOXB2 and ELF3, which were also increased in quercetin-treated COPD BC with FDR

Science - Abstract
Abstract Macrophages are fundamental cells of the innate immune system that support normal haematopoiesis and play roles in both anti-cancer immunity and tumour progression. Here we use a chimeric mouse model of chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) and human bone marrow (BM) derived macrophages to study the impact of the dysregulated BM microenvironment on bystander macrophages. Utilising single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) of Philadelphia chromosome (Ph) negative macrophages we reveal unique subpopulations of immature macrophages residing in the CML BM microenvironment. CML exposed macrophages separate from their normal counterparts by reduced expression of the surface marker CD36, which significantly reduces clearance of apoptotic cells. We uncover aberrant production of CML-secreted factors, including the immune modulatory protein lactotransferrin (LTF), that suppresses efferocytosis, phagocytosis, and CD36 surface expression in BM macrophages, indicating that the elevated secretion of LTF is, at least partially responsible for the supressed clearance function of Ph- macrophages.

Abstract Background Mutations in the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) kinase domain are common in non-small cell lung cancer. Conventional tyrosine kinase inhibitors target the mutation site in the ATP binding pocket, thereby inhibiting the receptor's function. However, subsequent treatment resistance mutations in the ATP binding site are common. The EGFR allosteric inhibitor, EAI045, is proposed to have an alternative mechanism of action, disrupting receptor signaling independent of the ATP-binding site. The antibody cetuximab is hypothesized to increase the number of accessible allosteric pockets for EAI045, thus increasing the potency of the inhibitor. This work aimed to gain further knowledge on pharmacokinetics, the EGFR mutation-targeting potential, and the influence of cetuximab on the uptake by radiolabeling EAI045 with carbon-11 and tritium. Results 2-(5-fluoro-2-hydroxyphenyl)-2-((2-iodobenzyl)amino)-N-(thiazol-2-yl)acetamide and 2-(5-fluoro-2-hydroxyphenyl)-N-(5-iodothiazol-2-yl)-2-(1-oxoisoindolin-2-yl)acetamide were synthesized as precursors for the carbon-11 and tritium labeling of EAI045, respectively. [11C]EAI045 was synthesized using [11C]CO in a palladium-catalyzed ring closure in a 10 ± 1% radiochemical yield (decay corrected to end of [11C]CO2 production), > 97% radiochemical purity and 26 ± 1 GBq/µmol molar activity (determined at end of synthesis) in 51 min. [3H]EAI045 was synthesized by a tritium-halogen exchange in a 0.2% radiochemical yield, 98% radiochemical purity, and 763 kBq/nmol molar activity. The ability of [11C]EAI045 to differentiate between L858R/T790M mutated EGFR expressing H1975 xenografts and wild-type EGFR expressing A549 xenografts was evaluated in female nu/nu mice. The uptake was statistically significantly higher in H1975 xenografts compared to A549 xenografts (0.45 ± 0.07%ID/g vs. 0.31 ± 0.10%ID/g, P = 0.0166). The synergy in inhibition between EAI045 and cetuximab was evaluated in vivo and in vitro. While there was some indication that cetuximab influenced the uptake of [3H]EAI045 in vitro, this could not be confirmed in vivo when tumor-bearing mice were administered cetuximab (0.5 mg), 24 h prior to injection of [11C]EAI045. Conclusions EAI045 was successfully labeled with tritium and carbon-11, and the in vivo results indicated [11C]EAI045 may be able to distinguish between mutated and non-mutated EGFR in non-small cell lung cancer mouse models. Cetuximab was hypothesized to increase EAI045 uptake; however, no significant effect was observed on the uptake of [11C]EAI045 in vivo or [3H]EAI045 in vitro in H1975 xenografts and cells.
