Professional Identity in Narratives by Gabriela Chefneux

“…The theoretical framework relies on Tajfel’s social constructionist approach to identity and on the Membership Categorization Analysis. The second part is the data analysis of the narratives presented by several employees of a multinational company during a phone conference meeting, with a focus on the professional identity in terms of narrative structure and values upheld by the narrators. …”

Determination of surface-wave phase velocities by zeros of Aki’s spectrum of active-source records: Application to the dense array in Tongzhou, ChinaKey points by Qinghua Liu, Laiyu Lu, Tongwei Qin, Lijun Chang

“…This study examined the application of the zeros of Aki’s spectra on active-source records using theoretical analysis and numerical simulation. We show that the zeros of the Aki’s spectrum should be associated with the zeros of the cosine function instead of the zeros of the zero-order Bessel function when extracting the phase velocity of the surface wave, considering the data acquisition and processing of the active-source records. …”

Microbial metabolite 3-indolepropionic acid alleviated PD pathologies by decreasing enteric glia cell gliosis via suppressing IL-13Rα1 related signaling pathways by Meiyu Shang, Jingwen Ning, Caixia Zang, Jingwei Ma, Yang Yang, Zhirong Wan, Jing Zhao, Yueqi Jiang, Qiuzhu Chen, Yirong Dong, Jinrong Wang, Fangfang Li, Xiuqi Bao, Dan Zhang

“…Although enteric glial cell (EGC) abnormal activation is reported to be involved in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD), and inhibition of EGC gliosis alleviated gut and dopaminergic neuronal dysfunction was verified in our previous study, the potential role of gut microbiota on EGC function in PD still need to be addressed. In the present study, fecal microbiota transplantation revealed that EGC function was regulated by gut microbiota. …”

Optimal Control Problem of Converter Steelmaking Production Process Based on Operation Optimization Method by Jun Zhang

“…Relationship between various operating variables, current temperature, and carbon content is constructed through operation analysis of a great deal of actual production data; then, the dynamic optimal control indicator is derived from historical excellent smelting data; finally, the dynamic operation optimization model is built by taking the minimum deviation between the current data—molten steel temperature and carbon content—and optimal data which are determined by the optimal control indicator as objective function. …”

Association between left atrial remodeling and early renal impairment in asymptomatic patients with type 2 diabetes by Mingxia Gong, Min Xu, Suoya Pan, Xiaohong Jiang

“…The primary endpoint for follow-up was defined as the first occurrence of non-fatal acute myocardial infarction, stroke, congestive heart failure, or cardiac death. Results (1) Analysis of variance indicated no statistically significant differences in echocardiographic data for left ventricular size or function across groups. (2) Correlation analysis after multivariable adjustment revealed that the LA minimal volume index (LAVImin) increased with the progression of DN, while the absolute value of the LA strain index(reservoir and conduit period) decreased as renal damage worsened, exhibiting a highly significant correlation with the GFR (P < 0.01). (3) Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses revealed that: LAVmin, LASr, GFR, and HbA1c were associated with MACEs in patients with DN. …”
