4. The EU's use of public diplomacy on social networks: 2015-2020

Author: Hélène, Boulanger, Cotton, Anne-Marie, Centre de Recherche sur les Médiations (Crem), Université de Lorraine (UL), ISCSP (Université de Lisbonne), BOULANGER, Hélène, and Instituto Superior de Ciências Sociais e Políticas (ISCSP, Université de Lisbonne)
Subjects: Public Diplomacy, [SHS.INFO]Humanities and Social Sciences/Library and information sciences, Twitter, EEAS, European Union, [SHS.INFO] Humanities and Social Sciences/Library and information sciences, Diplomacy, Off-Centred Approach
Abstract: International audience; Purpose: The European External Action Service (EEAS) is a relatively new diplomatic service established in 2010. In previous analyses, we noted a dominance of security and foreign policy messages emanating from the EEAS, signs of the EU's negotiating power. It was clear it had discovered the benefits of public diplomacy, but rather practiced traditional diplomacy on public diplomacy specific platforms. We are willing to continue the analysis on the same social platform (Twitter) to deduce the evolution of its public diplomacy practices. Methodology: Questioning if the EEAS is entering the second phase of its life cycle (launched in 2010, its introduction phase was under Katherine Ashton, 2009-2014, followed by Federica Mogherini, 2014-2019, and Josep Borrell, 2019-2024), we carried out a content analysis on 765 tweets. We compared how the European Union uses public diplomacy through its EEAS to negotiate its own interests with non-EU parties under the presidency of Federica Mogherini (period 1), during the transition period (period 2), and under the presidency of Joseph Borrell (period 3).Finding: Beside a global validation of our methodology, we demonstrated that the overall discourse of the EEAS is much more oriented towards public diplomacy.Originality: This case study is based on the principles of citizen science and demonstrates the importance of an off-centred approach in the analysis of the practices of public diplomacy.

Abstract: International audience; This position paper seeks to ground and outline a discussion on environmental issues related to tangible user interfaces. The discussion that we present here started during a panel on "Tangible Interaction and Industrial Degrowth" that took place during the ETIS European studio on tangible interaction in November 2022 [5]. The panel discussed the problem from various angles and took input from the participants of the studio in the form of an online mapping brainstorm. The topics covered ranged from environmental feedback aspects to low-tech alternatives, as well as systemic, methodological and regulation considerations. This position paper reports on the approaches that were discussed and, based on these first insights, suggests directions for sustainable tangible interaction.

6. Chronic Conditions, School Participation and Quality of Life of Portuguese Adolescents: Highlights from the Health Behavior in School aged Children study - HBSC 2018

Abstract: International audience; This study intends to analyze the influence that the health condition (with/without chronic condition (CC) and CC that affect/does not affect the school participation), the factors related to the school context (liking school, perception of school success, difficulties at school, relationship with peers and teachers) and the physical and psychological symptoms exert on the adolescents’ quality of life (QoL). This work is part of the HBSC 2018 study and relies on the participation of 8215 students (52,6% female), aged between 10 and 22 years old (M=14.36 and SD=2.28). The results show that the adolescents with CC have more physical and psychological symptoms and a lower perception of QoL. Having a CC that does not affect school participation is associated with a better QoL. The students with CC that affect school participation like school less than the students with CC that does not affect school participation, perceive a lower academic success and a lower QoL, have more difficulties at school and present more physical and psychological symptoms. Liking school, having a better relationship with teachers and peers, a higher perception of school success, fewer difficulties at school and fewer physical and psychological symptoms is associated with a better QoL. These results underline the importance of school participation regarding the adolescents’ well-being and QoL. More than having a CC, what causes a greater impact on the adolescents’ QoL is the fact that this condition affects the school participation which reinforces the importance of promoting and ensuring the school participation of the students with CC.

7. Finances royales au Portugal au XVIème siècle: dynamique et composition sociale

Author: Maria Leonor Garcia da Cruz, Faculté des lettres de l'université de Lisbonne, Université de Lisbonne, and Labardin, Pierre
Subjects: [SHS.HIST] Humanities and Social Sciences/History, histoire, histoire,finances royales,portugal, finances royales, [SHS.GESTION]Humanities and Social Sciences/Business administration, [SHS.GESTION] Humanities and Social Sciences/Business administration, [SHS.HIST]Humanities and Social Sciences/History, portugal
Abstract: Le thème choisi pour ces Journées 2 est un vrai défi pour les chercheurs en histoire moderne, notamment pour les chercheurs portugais. Ceux qui font des recherches sur les débuts de l'époque moderne, c'est-à-dire, les XVème, XVIème, XVIIème et XVIIIème siècles, s'aperçoivent des transformations fondamentales par lesquelles sont passées les sociétés de divers continents jusqu'à leur configuration structurelle selon les paradigmes contemporains. Je fais référence aux grandes transformations en Europe et dans des zones du continent africain et asiatique, mais surtout du continent américain, qui ont développé de fortes relations de communication et de perméabilité avec les Européens. Dues en grande partie à la recherche de solutions et au développement de techniques pour répondre à l'augmentation démographique, à des migrations, à des équilibres politiques, au dynamisme de groupes sociaux, à la conquête de la mer océanique, à l'exploration de voies de longue distance et au développement de relations diversifiées avec des peuples jusque là isolés ou même inconnus, des modifications se font sentir en Europe avec différents degrés d'intensité (en vertu des écarts économiques, de la distance de la mer, de l'organisation sociopolitique, de paramètres culturels...) et, naturellement, elles conditionnent des circuits et des domaines d'intervention qui lui sont liés.

Abstract: International audience; After a presentation of the irrigation context in Portugal, the authors of this paper review the robustness of two modelling approaches and their combination to better programme irrigation campaigns at plot scale. Two application cases are presented and discussed: one on a horticultural crop with shallow roots (Capsicum annuum L. 'Pompeo F1') and the other on a woody crop with deep roots (Olea europea 'Arbequina').; Après avoir présenté le contexte de l’irrigation au Portugal, les auteurs de cet article examinent la robustesse de deux approches et leur combinaison afin de mieux programmer les campagnes d’irrigation à l’échelle de la parcelle. Deux cas d’application sont présentés et discutés : l’un sur des cultures horticoles à enracinement superficiel (piment, Capsicum annuum L. ) et l’autre sur des cultures avec racines ligneuses profondes (olivier, Olea europea 'Arbequina').

Abstract: Heterogeneity of interindividual and intraindividual responses to interventions is often observed in randomized, controlled trials for obesity. To address the global epidemic of obesity and move toward more personalized treatment regimens, the global research community must come together to identify factors that may drive these heterogeneous responses to interventions. This project, called OBEDIS (OBEsity Diverse Interventions Sharing - focusing on dietary and other interventions), provides a set of European guidelines for a minimal set of variables to include in future clinical trials on obesity, regardless of the specific endpoints. Broad adoption of these guidelines will enable researchers to harmonize and merge data from multiple intervention studies, allowing stratification of patients according to precise phenotyping criteria which are measured using standardized methods. In this way, studies across Europe may be pooled for better prediction of individuals' responses to an intervention for obesity - ultimately leading to better patient care and improved obesity outcomes. © 2020 The Author(s) Published by S.

Abstract: International audience; Euclid is a mission of the European Space Agency that is designed to constrain the properties of dark energy and gravity via weak gravitational lensing and galaxy clustering. It will carry out a wide area imaging and spectroscopy survey (the Euclid Wide Survey: EWS) in visible and near-infrared bands, covering approximately 15 000 deg 2 of extragalactic sky in six years. The wide-field telescope and instruments are optimised for pristine point spread function and reduced stray light, producing very crisp images. This paper presents the building of the Euclid reference survey: the sequence of pointings of EWS, deep fields, and calibration fields, as well as spacecraft movements followed by Euclid as it operates in a step-and-stare mode from its orbit around the Lagrange point L2. Each EWS pointing has four dithered frames; we simulated the dither pattern at the pixel level to analyse the effective coverage. We used up-to-date models for the sky background to define the Euclid region-of-interest (RoI). The building of the reference survey is highly constrained from calibration cadences, spacecraft constraints, and background levels; synergies with ground-based coverage were also considered. Via purposely built software, we first generated a schedule for the calibrations and deep fields observations. On a second stage, the RoI was tiled and scheduled with EWS observations, using an algorithm optimised to prioritise the best sky areas, produce a compact coverage, and ensure thermal stability. The result is the optimised reference survey RSD_2021A, which fulfils all constraints and is a good proxy for the final solution. The current EWS covers ≈14 500 deg 2 . The limiting AB magnitudes (5 σ point-like source) achieved in its footprint are estimated to be 26.2 (visible band I E ) and 24.5 (for near infrared bands Y E , J E , H E ); for spectroscopy, the H α line flux limit is 2 × 10 −16 erg −1 cm −2 s −1 at 1600 nm; and for diffuse emission, the surface brightness limits are 29.8 (visible band) and 28.4 (near infrared bands) mag arcsec −2 .

Abstract: Research Article - UN DECADE ON ECOSYSTEM RESTORATION The degradation of riparian ecosystems occurring throughout the past decades has motivated efforts aimed at the restoration of these ecosystems. The success of active revegetation approaches to restoration requires appropriate selection of reproductive material, which in turn requires knowledge of seed traits and germination. Alnus glutinosa (L.) Gaertn. (common alder) is a key riparian tree widely used in restoration projects, and has recently been classified as comprising three species: A. glutinosa; A. lusitanica Vít, Douda, & Mand ak; and A. rohlenae Vít, Douda, & Mand ak. To help guide restoration species selection, we assessed differences among populations of these species by (1) investigating seed weight, morphology, and germination success from a large population set and (2)modeling germination success in each species in relation to morphological traits and environmental conditions. Seedswere collected from 12 populations encompassing the latitudinal extremes of the species complex, and were then characterized and germinated. Ploidy levels and species were distinguished using cytometric analysis. Site-level climatic data and seed morphology datawere used to model germination success for each species. All seed traits differed between populations and one morphological-trait (seed weight-to-area ratio) differed significantly between the three species. Germination modeling showed that the southwestern species, A. lusitanica, responded positively to high temperature extremes, suggesting tolerance to the climate changes projected for southern Europe. Populations of A. lusitanica located at the latitudinal rear edge of commonalder’s distribution appear to show establishmentfacilitating adaptations, and therefore may contribute to ecological restoration efforts under a range of environmental conditions info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion

Abstract: International audience; Background and purpose: Primary lateral sclerosis (PLS) is a motor neuron disorder characterized by a pure upper motor neuron degeneration in the bulbar and spinal regions. The key difference with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is the lower motor neuron system integrity. Despite important literature on this disease, the pathophysiology of PLS remains unknown, and the link with ALS still balances between a continuum and a separate entity from ALS. Methods: We report nine families in which both PLS and ALS cases occurred, in general among first-degree relatives. Results: The patients with PLS and ALS had a typical disease presentation. Genetic studies revealed mutations in SQSMT1, TBK1, and TREM2 genes in two PLS patients and one ALS patient. Conclusions: These results strongly support a phenotypic continuum between PLS and ALS.

Abstract: The enzymes from hyperthermophilic microorganisms populating volcanic sites represent interesting cases of protein adaptation and biotransformations under conditions where conventional enzymes quickly denature. The difficulties in cultivating extremophiles severely limit access to this class of biocatalysts. To circumvent this problem, we embarked on the exploration of the biodiversity of the solfatara Pisciarelli, Agnano (Naples, Italy), to discover hyperthermophilic carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) and to characterize the entire set of such enzymes in this environment (CAZome). Here, we report the results of the metagenomic analysis of two mud/water pools that greatly differ in both temperature and pH (T = 85 °C and pH 5.5; T = 92 °C and pH 1.5, for Pool1 and Pool2, respectively). DNA deep sequencing and following in silico analysis led to 14 934 and 17 652 complete ORFs in Pool1 and Pool2, respectively. They exclusively belonged to archaeal cells and viruses with great genera variance within the phylum Crenarchaeota, which reflected the difference in temperature and pH of the two Pools. Surprisingly, 30% and 62% of all of the reads obtained from Pool1 and 2, respectively, had no match in nucleotide databanks. Genes associated with carbohydrate metabolism were 15% and 16% of the total in the two Pools, with 278 and 308 putative CAZymes in Pool1 and 2, corresponding to ~ 2.0% of all ORFs. Biochemical characterization of two CAZymes of a previously unknown archaeon revealed a novel subfamily GH5_19 β-mannanase/β-1,3-glucanase whose hemicellulose specificity correlates with the vegetation surrounding the sampling site, and a novel NAD+ -dependent GH109 with a previously unreported β-N-acetylglucosaminide/β-glucoside specificity. DATABASES: The sequencing reads are available in the NCBI Sequence Read Archive (SRA) database under the accession numbers SRR7545549 (Pool1) and SRR7545550 (Pool2). The sequences of GH5_Pool2 and GH109_Pool2 are available in GenBank database under the accession numbers MK869723 and MK86972, respectively. The environmental data relative to Pool1 and Pool2 (NCBI BioProject PRJNA481947) are available in the Biosamples database under the accession numbers SAMN09692669 (Pool1) and SAMN09692670 (Pool2).

15. Innovative route for the preparation of high-performance polyolefin materials based on unique dendrimeric silica particles

Abstract: In this study, an innovative methodology for the preparation of high-performance polyolefin-based materials combining a unique dendrimeric silica (DS) carrier, a straightforward in situ supporting procedure and in situ ethylene polymerization technique was developed. Despite being inspired in the in situ supporting concept, it goes far beyond this, since its application is made in a different perspective, which is the production of high-performance polyethylene nanocomposites by in situ polymerization, where DS nanoparticles are aimed not only to act as a MAO carrier for ethylene polymerization but, also as a filler. This route combines metallocene supporting and polymerization in a single stage and avoids time-consuming and costly immobilization steps, allowing for a much more simplified experimental set-up. The impact of the immobilization procedure both on the catalytic activity for ethylene polymerization and on the morphological and thermal features of the ensuing polymers was investigated. The in situ supporting procedure was shown to yield highly active catalysts, compared to a common approach involving a two-step immobilization procedure, and in the same order of magnitude of the reference molecular catalyst in homogeneous conditions. Moreover, the in situ supporting route makes unnecessary the addition of external methyaluminoxane (MAO) cocatalyst thus, enabling a strong reduction of the MAO amount and potentially resulting in significant process cost savings. This way, polyethylene based materials with tunable molar masses, and desirable morphology and crystalline features were prepared, proving the method's versatility and ability in tailoring polymer properties, by changing the experimental conditions, and highlighting the potential of this methodology for the generation of highly performant HDPE nanocomposite materials for several applications.

Abstract: Euclid is an ESA mission designed to constrain the properties of dark energy and gravity via weak gravitational lensing and galaxy clustering. It will carry out a wide area imaging and spectroscopy survey (EWS) in visible and near-infrared, covering roughly 15,000 square degrees of extragalactic sky on six years. The wide-field telescope and instruments are optimized for pristine PSF and reduced straylight, producing very crisp images. This paper presents the building of the Euclid reference survey: the sequence of pointings of EWS, Deep fields, Auxiliary fields for calibrations, and spacecraft movements followed by Euclid as it operates in a step-and-stare mode from its orbit around the Lagrange point L2. Each EWS pointing has four dithered frames; we simulate the dither pattern at pixel level to analyse the effective coverage. We use up-to-date models for the sky background to define the Euclid region-of-interest (RoI). The building of the reference survey is highly constrained from calibration cadences, spacecraft constraints and background levels; synergies with ground-based coverage are also considered. Via purposely-built software optimized to prioritize best sky areas, produce a compact coverage, and ensure thermal stability, we generate a schedule for the Auxiliary and Deep fields observations and schedule the RoI with EWS transit observations. The resulting reference survey RSD_2021A fulfills all constraints and is a good proxy for the final solution. Its wide survey covers 14,500 square degrees. The limiting AB magnitudes ($5\sigma$ point-like source) achieved in its footprint are estimated to be 26.2 (visible) and 24.5 (near-infrared); for spectroscopy, the H$_\alpha$ line flux limit is $2\times 10^{-16}$ erg cm$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$ at 1600 nm; and for diffuse emission the surface brightness limits are 29.8 (visible) and 28.4 (near-infrared) mag arcsec$^{-2}$., Comment: 43 pages, 51 figures, submitted to A&A

Abstract: International audience; This position paper analyses the threats from the current situation of the clinical investigation to the expectations of the new European regulations focusing on high risk medical devices (HRMDs). We present also some opportunities to improve the feasibility and quality of clinical investigation. In summary, investigation protocols of medical devices, advised and authorized by the competent authorities, are few and heterogenous. There is a lack of quality in the existing studies, a lack of methodological knowledge and consequently high expectations for assistance from those involved in the design of clinical study protocols on HRMD. Guidance that is specific to the different type of devices is missing. Adaptive designs, pragmatic trial, usability methods, computer modeling and real world data are gaining more and more traction for assessing the safety and performance of high risk medical devices from a regulatory view-point.

Abstract: Objective: the role of the survival of motor neuron (SMN) gene in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is unclear, with several conflicting reports. A decisive result on this topic is needed, given that treatment options are available now for SMN deficiency. Methods: in this largest multicenter case control study to evaluate the effect of SMN1 and SMN2 copy numbers in ALS, we used whole genome sequencing data from Project MinE data freeze 2. SMN copy numbers of 6,375 patients with ALS and 2,412 controls were called from whole genome sequencing data, and the reliability of the calls was tested with multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification data. Results: the copy number distribution of SMN1 and SMN2 between cases and controls did not show any statistical differences (binomial multivariate logistic regression SMN1 p = 0.54 and SMN2 p = 0.49). In addition, the copy number of SMN did not associate with patient survival (Royston-Parmar; SMN1 p = 0.78 and SMN2 p = 0.23) or age at onset (Royston-Parmar; SMN1 p = 0.75 and SMN2 p = 0.63). Interpretation: in our well-powered study, there was no association of SMN1 or SMN2 copy numbers with the risk of ALS or ALS disease severity. This suggests that changing SMN protein levels in the physiological range may not modify ALS disease course. This is an important finding in the light of emerging therapies targeted at SMN deficiencies., European Union (EU); Horizon 2020; European Research Council (ERC); Research and Innovation Programme; EScORIAL; IWT; FWO-Vlaanderen; United Kingdom Medical Research Council; Neurodegenerative Disease Research (JPND); Netherlands; ZONMW; BRAIN-MEND; NIH/NINDS; Italian Ministry of Health; Fondazione Regionale per la Ricerca Biomedica Regione Lombardia; Science Foundation Ireland; ALS Liga Belgie; National Lottery of Belgium; KU Leuven Opening the Future Fund; E. von Behring Chair for Neuromuscular and Neurodegenerative Disorders; ALS Foundation Netherlands; PPP Allowance; Motor Neurone Disease Association; National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) Maudsley Biomedical Research Centre; Fondazione Italiana di Ricerca per la SLA - AriSLA; Exomefals; Novals; ALS Association; E-RARE JTC Project Repetomics

Abstract: Dendritic habitats, such as river ecosystems, promote the persistence of species by favouring spatial asynchronous dynamics among branches. Yet, our understanding of how network topology influences metapopulation synchrony in these ecosystems remains limited. Here, we introduce the concept of fluvial synchrogram to formulate and test expectations regarding the geography of metapopulation synchrony across watersheds. By combining theoretical simulations and an extensive fish population time‐series dataset across Europe, we provide evidence that fish metapopulations can be buffered against synchronous dynamics as a direct consequence of network connectivity and branching complexity. Synchrony was higher between populations connected by direct water flow and decayed faster with distance over the Euclidean than the watercourse dimension. Likewise, synchrony decayed faster with distance in headwater than mainstem populations of the same basin. As network topology and flow directionality generate fundamental spatial patterns of synchrony in fish metapopulations, empirical synchrograms can aid knowledge advancement and inform conservation strategies in complex habitats., Synchrony between spatially separated populations influences species persistence and ecosystem stability. We provide theoretical and empirical evidence that in dendritic habitats, such as river ecosystems, network topology and flow directionality generate fundamental spatial patterns in fish metapopulation synchrony. We articulate an empirical geography of synchrony within river basins that allow predicting synchrony patterns even if population time‐series data are not available.

Abstract: [EN] In recent years, modelling techniques have become more frequently adopted in the field of food processing, especially for cereal-based products, which are among the most consumed foods in the world. Predictive models and simulations make it possible to explore new approaches and optimize proceedings, potentially helping companies reduce costs and limit carbon emissions. Nevertheless, as the different phases of the food processing chain are highly specialized, advances in modelling are often unknown outside of a single domain, and models rarely take into account more than one step. This paper introduces the first high-level overview of modelling techniques employed in different parts of the cereal supply chain, from farming to storage, from drying to milling, from processing to consumption. This review, issued from a networking project including researchers from over 30 different countries, aims at presenting the current state of the art in each domain, showing common trends and synergies, to finally suggest promising future venues for research., The authors would like to acknowledge networking and article processing charge support by COST Action CA15118 (Mathematical and Computer Science Methods for Food Science and Industry).

Abstract: Fossil fishes are among the rarest in volcanic oceanic islands, their presence providing invaluable data for the understanding of more general (palaeo)biogeographical patterns and processes. Santa Maria Island (Azores Archipelago) is renowned for its palaeontological heritage, with representatives of several phyla, including the Chordata. We report on the fossil fishes, resulting in an increase in the number of Pliocene fishes from the Azores to 11 taxa: seven Chondrichthyes and at least four Actinopterygii. The genus Sparisoma is reported for the first time in the fossil record. The presence of fossil remains of the parrotfish Sparisoma cretense in Last Interglacial outcrops is significant, because it posits a setback for the theory that most of the present-day Azorean marine species colonized the area after the last glacial episode. Our multidisciplinary approach combines palaeontological data with ecological and published genetic data, offering an alternative interpretation. We suggest that most of the Azorean shallow-water subtropical and temperate marine species living in the archipelago during the Last Interglacial were not affected by the decrease in sea surface temperatures during the last glacial episode. We also predict low genetic diversity for fish species presently living in the Azores and ecologically associated with fine sediments, as a result of the remobilization and sediment transport to abyssal depths, during the Last Glacial episode; these are viewed as post-glacial colonizers or as ‘bottleneck’ survivors from the Last Glaciation Direção Regional da Ciência e Tecnologia (Regional Government of the Azores).

Abstract: Transdisciplinary approaches that provide holistic views are essential to properly understand soil processes and the importance of soil to society and will be crucial in the future to integrate distinct disciplines into soil studies. A myriad of challenges faces soil science at the beginning of the 2020s. The main aim of this overview is to assess past achievements and current challenges regarding soil threats such as ero-sion and soil contamination related to different United Nations sustainable development goals (SDGs) including (1) sustainable food production, (2) ensure healthy lives and reduce environmental risks (SDG3), (3) ensure water availability (SDG6), and (4) enhanced soil carbon sequestration because of climate change (SDG13). Twenty experts from different disciplines related to soil sciences offer perspectives on important research directions. Special attention must be paid to some concerns such as (1) effective soil conservation strategies; (2) new computational technolo-gies, models, and in situ measurements that will bring new insights to in-soil process at spatiotemporal scales, their relationships, dynamics, and thresholds; (3) impacts of human activities, wildfires, and climate change on soil microorganisms and thereby on biogeochemical cycles and water relationships; (4) microplastics as a new potential pollutant; (5) the development of green technologies for soil rehabilitation; and (6) the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by simultaneous soil carbon sequestration and reduction in nitrous oxide emission. Manuscripts on topics such as these are particularly welcomed in Air, Soil and Water Research. Made available in DSpace on 2020-12-04T09:05:05Z (GMT).

Abstract: We studied the relationship between temperature and the coexistence of great tit Parus major and blue tit Cyanistes caeruleus, breeding in 75 study plots across Europe and North Africa. We expected an advance in laying date and a reduction in clutch size during warmer springs as a general response to climate warming and a delay in laying date and a reduction in clutch size during warmer winters due to density-dependent effects. As expected, as spring temperature increases laying date advances and as winter temperature increases clutch size is reduced in both species. Density of great tit affected the relationship between winter temperature and laying date in great and blue tit. Specifically, as density of great tit increased and temperature in winter increased both species started to reproduce later. Density of blue tit affected the relationship between spring temperature and blue and great tit laying date. Thus, both species start to reproduce earlier with increasing spring temperature as density of blue tit increases, which was not an expected outcome, since we expected that increasing spring temperature should advance laying date, while increasing density should delay it cancelling each other out. Climate warming and its interaction with density affects clutch size of great tits but not of blue tits. As predicted, great tit clutch size is reduced more with density of blue tits as temperature in winter increases. The relationship between spring temperature and density on clutch size of great tits depends on whether the increase is in density of great tit or blue tit. Therefore, an increase in temperature negatively affected the coexistence of blue and great tits differently in both species. Thus, blue tit clutch size was unaffected by the interaction effect of density with temperature, while great tit clutch size was affected in multiple ways by these interactions terms., A.

José, roi du Portugal, quand elle avait onze ans. Bien qu'elle ait eu quatre enfants, aucun d'eux n'était un enfant mâle, ce qui l'a mise dans une position de faiblesse à la Cour. Dans les lettres qu'elle écrit à sa mère, la reine d'Espagne Isabel Farnèse, elle se représente comme un être enfermé, sans espace de mouvements ni d'influence, et sans possibilité d'agir sur son propre destin. En partant de ce cas particulier, qui met en scène une expérience commune à d'autres femmes dans des circonstances semblables, on essaiera de réfléchir sur quelques problèmes posés par la représentation de l'enfermement dans ces lettres (relation entre réalité et la perception, discours et représentation, construction d'identité et recherche de l'intimité).

Abstract: International audience; The production of the highly valued seeds of stone pine has decreased all over the Mediterranean region during the last two decades. This phenomenon coincided with the establishment in Europe of the invasive species Western Conifer Seed Bug, Leptoglossus occidentalis (Hemiptera, Coreidae). The putative impact of L. occidentalis on pine seeds has raised the need for responses among the scientific community. Still, the subject is at some extent controversial and other hypothesis has been raised, such as the influence of climate in flowering, pollination and cone survival. Until now, we lack an effective measure of the impact of this bug on seed yield. Here we integrate results from seed loss on mature cones with the monitoring of the bug population at site level during five consecutive years. The seed loss was assessed by comparing naturally exposed cones (N) with those protected by an insect exclusion bag (E). Both type of cones were analysed on fertilized plus irrigated trees (fertirrigated plots) and on control ones.Observed seed loss per cone was closely related with the population dynamics of L. occidentalis. We found a strong positive correlation between seed loss per cone and average insect density of current Nt and previous year Nt-1 (R-2 = 0.98). For similar insect density, cones from fertirrigated plots presented a higher seed loss than control ones.Additionally, the insect population dynamics was framed with climate data for the 5 years period and a climatic theoretical explanation is hypothesized.

Abstract: We investigated whether dementia risk factors were associated with prodromal Alzheimer's disease (AD) according to the International Working Group-2 and National Institute of Aging-Alzheimer's Association criteria, and with cognitive decline. A total of 1394 subjects with mild cognitive impairment from 14 different studies were classified according to these research criteria, based on cognitive performance and biomarkers. We compared the frequency of 10 risk factors between the subgroups, and used Cox-regression to examine the effect of risk factors on cognitive decline. Depression, obesity, and hypercholesterolemia occurred more often in individuals with low-AD-likelihood, compared with those with a high-AD-likelihood. Only alcohol use increased the risk of cognitive decline, regardless of AD pathology. These results suggest that traditional risk factors for AD are not associated with prodromal AD or with progression to dementia, among subjects with mild cognitive impairment. Future studies should validate these findings and determine whether risk factors might be of influence at an earlier stage (i.e., preclinical) of AD., final draft, peerReviewed

Abstract: The Camelidae family comprises the Bactrian camel (Camelus bactrianus), the dromedary camel (Camelus dromedarius), and four species of South American camelids: llama (Lama glama), alpaca (Lama pacos) guanaco (Lama guanicoe), and vicuña (Vicugna vicugna). The main characteristic of these species is their ability to cope with either hard climatic conditions like those found in arid regions (Bactrian and dromedary camels) or high-altitude landscapes like those found in South America (South American camelids). Because of such interesting physiological and adaptive traits, the interest for these animals as livestock species has increased considerably over the last years. In general, the main animal products obtained from these animals are meat, milk, and hair fiber, although they are also used for races and work among other activities. In the near future, climate change will likely decrease agricultural areas for animal production worldwide, particularly in the tropics and subtropics where competition with crops for human consumption is a major problem already. In such conditions, extensive animal production could be limited in some extent to semi-arid rangelands, subjected to periodical draughts and erratic patterns of rainfall, severely affecting conventional livestock production, namely cattle and sheep. In the tropics and subtropics, camelids may become an important protein source for humans. This article aims to review some of the recent literature about the meat, milk, and hair fiber production in the six existing camelid species highlighting their benefits and drawbacks, overall contributing to the development of camelid production in the framework of food security info:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion

Abstract: The aim of the present work was to address the role of BMP9 in different genetic backgrounds (C57BL/6, BALB/c, and 129/Ola) of mice deleted for Bmp9. We found that Bmp9 deletion led to premature mortality only in the 129/Ola strain. We have previously shown that Bmp9 deletion led to liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSEC) capillarization and liver fibrosis in the 129/Ola background. Here, we showed that this is not the case in the C57BL/6 background. Analysis of LSEC from Wild-type (WT) versus Bmp9-KO mice in the C57BL/6 background showed no difference in LSEC fenestration and in the expression of differentiation markers. Comparison of the mRNA expression of LSEC differentiation markers between WT C57BL/6 and 129/Ola mice showed a significant decrease in Stabilin2, Plvap, and CD209b, suggesting a more capillary-like phenotype in WT C57BL/6 LSECs. C57BL/6 mice also had lower BMP9 circulating concentrations and hepatic Vegfr2 mRNA levels, compared to the 129/Ola mice. Taken together, our observations support a role for BMP9 in liver endothelial cell fenestration and prevention of fibrosis that is dependent on genetic background. It also suggests that 129/Ola mice are a more suitable model than C57BL/6 for the study of liver fibrosis subsequent to LSEC capillarization.

Abstract: En juillet 2017, le gouvernement turc de Recep Tayyip Erdogan issu du Parti de la justice et du développement (Adalet ve Kalkınma Partisi, AKP) a annoncé l’achat d’un système de défense anti-aérien S400, dont la livraison est prévue pour juillet 2019, marquant une nouvelle victoire pour l’industrie de la défense russe contre son concurrent américain. Cette décision a suscité depuis quelques mois de fortes réactions de la part de ses alliés de l’OTAN au premier rang desquels les Etats-Unis. Ces derniers accusent la Turquie de permettre ainsi à la Russie de collecter des informations stratégiques et technologiques sur les F-35, avions furtifs américains dernier cri qu’Ankara a également entrepris d’acquérir. Suivant un rare consensus américain dépassant les clivages habituels, la Turquie et le Président Erdogan sont sommés par le Congrès, le Pentagone et le gouvernement américains de choisir leur camp suivant le slogan « un avion de chasse américain ou un système russe de missiles. Pas les deux », n’hésitant pas à brandir la menace de répercussions au niveau de l’OTAN, d’une suspension de la coopération militaire, notamment concernant le F-35 et surtout d’importantes sanctions économiques dans le cadre de la nouvelle loi américaine CAATSA si le gouvernement turc ne renonce pas à son achat d’armements russes d’ici le 31 juillet 2019...

Abstract: This deposit is composed by the main article. The Supplementary Material for this article can be found online at: https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fphys.2018.01161/full#supplementary-material. Logical models are well-suited to capture salient dynamical properties of regulatory networks. For networks controlling cell fate decisions, cell fates are associated with model attractors (stable states or cyclic attractors) whose identification and reachability properties are particularly relevant. While synchronous updates assume unlikely instantaneous or identical rates associated with component changes, the consideration of asynchronous updates is more realistic but, for large models, may hinder the analysis of the resulting non-deterministic concurrent dynamics. This complexity hampers the study of asymptotical behaviors, and most existing approaches suffer from efficiency bottlenecks, being generally unable to handle cyclical attractors and quantify attractor reachability. Here, we propose two algorithms providing probability estimates of attractor reachability in asynchronous dynamics. The first algorithm, named Firefront, exhaustively explores the state space from an initial state, and provides quasi-exact evaluations of the reachability probabilities of model attractors. The algorithm progresses in breadth, propagating the probabilities of each encountered state to its successors. Second, Avatar is an adapted Monte Carlo approach, better suited for models with large and intertwined transient and terminal cycles. Avatar iteratively explores the state space by randomly selecting trajectories and by using these random walks to estimate the likelihood of reaching an attractor. Unlike Monte Carlo simulations, Avatar is equipped to avoid getting trapped in transient cycles and to identify cyclic attractors. Firefront and Avatar are validated and compared to related methods, using as test cases logical models of synthetic and biological networks. Both algorithms are implemented as new functionalities of GINsim 3.0, a well-established software tool for logical modeling, providing executable GUI, Java API, and scripting facilities.

Abstract: Police crash reports are often the main source for official data in many countries. However, with the exception of fatal crashes, crashes are often underreported in a biased manner. Consequently, the countermeasures adopted according to them may be inefficient. In the case of bicycle crashes, this bias is most acute and it probably varies across countries, with some of them being more prone to reporting accidents to police than others. Assessing if this bias occurs and the size of it can be of great importance for evaluating the risks associated with bicycling.This study utilized data collected in the COST TU1101 action "Towards safer bicycling through optimization of bicycle helmets and usage". The data came from an online survey that included questions related to bicyclists´ attitudes, behaviour, cycling habits, accidents, and patterns of use of helmets. The survey was filled by 8655 bicyclists from 30 different countries. After applying various exclusion factors, 7015 questionnaires filled by adult cyclists from 17 countries, each with at least 100 valid responses, remained in our sample.The results showed that across all countries, an average of only 10% of all crashes were reported to the police, with a wide range among countries: from a minimum of 0.0% (Israel) and 2.6% (Croatia) to a maximum of a 35.0% (Germany). Some factors associated with the reporting levels were type of crash, type of vehicle involved, and injury severity. No relation was found between the likelihood of reporting and the cyclist´s gender, age, educational level, marital status, being a parent, use of helmet, and type of bicycle.The significant under-reporting - including injury crashes that do not lead to hospitalization - justifies the use of self-report survey data for assessment of bicycling crash patterns as they relate to (1) crash risk issues such as location, infrastructure, cyclists´ characteristics, and use of helmet and (2) strategic approaches to bicycle crash prevention and injury reduction.

Abstract: Glazier’s suggestion for the constraints-led approach as a GUT for sport performance is a worthy proposal. What is missing from these preliminary insights is a principled basis, in the form of pillars, for understanding the cornerstones of the sports medicine profession, and this lack of an overarching theoretical framework is also somewhat of a limitation in Glazier's initial ideas, as we argue later. Here we suggest that his preliminary proposal would benefit from considering a more comprehensive ontological positioning within the complexity sciences paradigm to benefit from conceptualising athletes and sports teams as complex adaptive systems. We argue that ecological dynamics provides a more encompassing rationale than the constraint-led approach because it is a multi-dimensional theoretical framework shaped by many relevant disciplines.

Abstract: International audience; Since its introduction in the 1950s, colistin has been used mainly as a topical treatment in human medicine owing to its toxicity when given systemically. Sixty years later, colistin is being used as a last-resort drug to treat infections caused by multidrug-resistant (MDR) Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Acinetobacter baumannii and Enterobacteriaceae (e.g., Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae), for which mortality can be high. In veterinary medicine, colistin has been used for decades for the treatment and prevention of infectious diseases. Colistin has been administered frequently as a group treatment for animal gastrointestinal infections caused by Gram-negative bacteria within intensive husbandry systems. Given the ever-growing need to retain the efficacy of antimicrobials used to treat MDR infections in humans, the use of colistin in veterinary medicine is being re-evaluated. Despite extensive use in veterinary medicine, there is limited evidence for the development of resistance to colistin and no evidence has been found for the transmission of resistance in bacteria that have been spread from animals to humans. Since surveillance for colistin resistance in animals is limited and the potential for such transmission exists, there is a clear need to reinforce systematic monitoring of bacteria from food-producing animals for resistance to colistin (polymyxins). Furthermore, colistin should only be used for treatment of clinically affected animals and no longer for prophylaxis of diseases, in line with current principles of responsible use of antibiotics.

Abstract: We use cross-slope sections of direct current observations together with a high resolution numerical simulation to revisit estimates of transports and entrainment in the Gulf of Cadiz. We provide a three dimensional picture of the outflow from the Mediterranean into the intermediate layers of the Atlantic. In the model, the time-averaged Mediterranean Undercurrent is characterised by two cores of zonal velocity at 8 ° 30 ′ W: one at 500 m (in the σ 1 interval 31.6–31.8 kg m−3) and another around 1100 m (∼32.2 kg m−3) with maximum westward velocity of 0.36 m s−1. A single well defined vein of saltier and warmer water (salinity maximum ∼36.9 psu, 1 psu = 1 kg salt/1000 kg seawater) is found attached to the slope, centred at 1300 m (32.2–32.4 kg m−3). The observational sections corroborate this description but instant maximum velocity reaches 0.6 m s−1 whereas salinity peaks just above 36.5 psu. Unlike what was previously thought, the velocity veins and the thermohaline anomaly cores are not co-located. At the Strait of Gibraltar, we estimate that the transport of pure Mediterranean Water (S > 38.4 psu) is about 0.48 Sv (1 Sv = 106 m3 s−1). Near the Portimao Canyon, the results for westward transport (31.6–32.6 kg m−3) computed from observations are within the range 2.6–3.6 Sv and the time-mean estimate from the numerical simulation is of 3.5 Sv. The westward salinity and heat transports are of ≲1.3 psu Sv (1 psu Sv = 103 m3 s−1) and ∼ 20 × 10 12 W , from observational and numerical data alike. By tracking water masses within a closed domain in the Gulf of Cadiz, we find that most of the North Atlantic Water entrained into the undercurrent is supplied through the south and southwest borders. After analysing volume balances per layer, we conclude that the entrainment from shallower layers is around 1.1 Sv in total: 0.32, 0.34, 0.40 and 0.04 Sv distributed by four equally spaced density intervals (0.2 kg m−3) between isopycnals 31.8 and 32.6 kg m−3.

Abstract: Thanks to its excellent corrosion resistance, good mechanical properties and biocompatibility, titanium has been widely used as dental implant material. A passive oxide film formed on titanium surface is responsible for its high corrosion resistance. This study has evaluated the surface characteristics of oxide layers formed on commercially pure titanium samples by anodic treatment and the effect of anodic treatment on their corrosion behaviour. FEG-SEM and XRD were used to evaluate the micromorphology and crystalline structure of these oxide films. Their corrosion resistance was evaluated using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and potentiodynamic polarization curves. EIS was performed for different times of immersion and a new equivalent electrical circuit (EEC) is proposed to fit the experimental data of the anodic oxide films. It was concluded that the morphology, composition, and structure of the outer porous layer of the anodic layer determine the corrosion protection of the material. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd.

Abstract: In this article we set up a splitting variant of the JKO scheme in order to handle gradient flows with respect to the Kantorovich-Fisher-Rao metric, recently introduced and defined on the space of positive Radon measure with varying masses. We perform successively a time step for the quadratic Wasserstein/Monge-Kantorovich distance, and then for the Hellinger/Fisher-Rao distance. Exploiting some inf-convolution structure of the metric we show convergence of the whole process for the standard class of energy functionals under suitable compactness assumptions, and investigate in details the case of internal energies. The interest is double: On the one hand we prove existence of weak solutions for a certain class of reaction-advection-diffusion equations, and on the other hand this process is constructive and well adapted to available numerical solvers., Final version, to appear in SIAM SIMA

Abstract: International audience; Mass blooms of purple sulfur bacteria growing seasonally on green stranded macroalgae have a major impact on the microbial composition and functionality of intertidal mats. To explore the active anoxygenic phototrophic community in purple bacterial mats from the Roscoff Aber Bay (Brittany, France), we conducted a combined approach including molecular and high-resolution secondary ion mass spectrometry (NanoSIMS) analyses. To investigate the dynamics of carbon and nitrogen assimilation activities, NanoSIMS was coupled with a stable isotope probing (SIP) experiment and a compound specific isotope analysis (CSIA) of fatty acid methyl ester (FAME). Sediment samples were incubated with 13 C-and/or 15 N-labeled acetate, pyruvate, bicarbonate and ammonium. NanoSIMS analysis of 13 C-and 15 N-incubated samples showed elevated incorporations of 13 C-and 15 N in the light and of 13 C-acetate in the dark into dense populations of spherical cells that unambiguously dominated the mats. These results confirmed CSIA data that ranked vaccenic acid, an unambiguous marker of purple sulfur bacteria, as the most strongly enriched in the light after 13 C-acetate amendment and indicated that acetate uptake, the most active in the mat, was not light-dependent. Analysis of DNA-and cDNA-derived pufM gene sequences revealed that Thiohalocapsa-related clones dominated both libraries and were the most photosynthetically active members of the mat samples. This study provides novel insights into the contribution of purple sulfur bacteria to the carbon cycle during their seasonal developments at the sediment surface in the intertidal zone.
