Abstract	Diversification of the ca. 275,000 extant flowering plant species has been driven in large part by coevolution with animal pollinators. A recurring pattern of pollinator shifts from hummingbird to hawkmoth pollination has characterized plant speciation in many western North American plant taxa, but in the genus Mimulus (monkeyflowers) section Erythranthe the evolution of hawkmoth pollination from hummingbird-pollinated ancestors has not occurred. We manipulated two flower color loci and tested the attractiveness of the resulting four color phenotypes (red, yellow, pink, and white) to naïve hawkmoths (Manduca sexta). Hawkmoths strongly prefer derived colors (yellow, pink, white) over the ancestral red when choosing an initial flower to visit, and generally preferred derived colors when total visits and total visit time were considered, with no hawkmoth preferring ancestral red over derived colors. The simple flower color genetics underlying this innate pollinator preference suggests a potential path for speciation into an unfilled hawkmoth-pollinated niche in Mimulus section Erythranthe, and the deliberate design of a hawkmoth-pollinated flower demonstrates a new, predictive method for studying pollination syndrome evolution.

Abstract	Objective: Over a third of women in the United States report a lifetime history of intimate partner violence. Although a recent review found that intimate partner violence is related to poor subjective sleep, the majority of studies involved reproductive-aged women and used suboptimal measures of interpersonal violence and/or insomnia. We examined the relationship between lifetime intimate partner violence and current clinical insomnia in a cross-sectional sample of midlife women veterans. Methods: Cross-sectional data were drawn from the Midlife Women Veterans Health Survey. Women Veterans (N = 232) aged 45 to 64 years enrolled in Department of Veterans Affairs health care in Northern California completed an adapted version of the Extended-Hurt, Insult, Threaten, Scream to assess lifetime history of intimate partner violence (screening threshold score and any physical, sexual, and psychological intimate partner violence) and the Insomnia Severity Index to assess current insomnia. Results: In multivariable analyses, lifetime history of intimate partner violence was associated with twofold to fourfold odds of current clinical insomnia, including overall intimate partner violence (odds ratio, 3.24; 95% confidence interval, 1.57-6.69), physical intimate partner violence (odds ratio, 2.01; 95% confidence interval, 1.09-3.70), psychological intimate partner violence (odds ratio, 3.98; 95% confidence interval, 2.06-7.71), and sexual intimate partner violence (odds ratio, 2.09; 95% confidence interval, 1.08-4.07). Conclusions: Lifetime history of intimate partner violence is common and may be associated with clinical insomnia during midlife. Findings highlight the importance of screening midlife women for intimate partner violence and recognizing the potential role of this traumatic exposure on women's health.

Abstract	Background: Consensus guidelines for antibiotic prophylaxis in endoscopic endonasal surgery (EES) have not been developed. The study objective was to define the microbiologic and clinical characteristics of post-EES central nervous system (CNS) infections. Methods: This was a single-center retrospective study of patients >18 years of age who underwent EES between January 2010 and July 2021 at a high-volume skull base center. Patients with confirmed CNS infection within 30 days of EES were included. During the study period, the standard prophylaxis regimen was ceftriaxone 2 g every 12 hours for 48 hours. For patients with a documented penicillin allergy, vancomycin plus aztreonam was recommended. Results: In total, 2440 EES procedures were performed on 2005 patients; the CNS infection rate was 1.8% (37/2005). CNS infections were more common among patients with a history of previous EES (6.5%; 20/307) compared with those who did not (1%; 17/1698; P < 0.001). The median time from EES to CNS infection was 12 (6-19) days. Thirty-two percent (12/37) of CNS infections were polymicrobic, which was more common among patients without previous EES (52.9%; 9/17) compared with those with previous EES (15%; 3/20; P = 0.03). Across all cases, Staphylococcus aureus (n = 10) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (n = 8) were commonly isolated pathogens. Among those with confirmed methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) nares colonization before EES, 75% (3/4) developed MRSA CNS infections compared with 6.1% (2/33) of noncolonized patients (P = 0.005). Conclusions: CNS infection after EES is rare and causative pathogens vary. Further studies are needed to identify the impact of MRSA nares screening on antimicrobial prophylaxis before EES.

Abstract	Herein we report the development of diffusion ordered NMR spectroscopy (DOSY) for its use to characterize metal complexes containing paramagnetic first row transition metal elements. This technique is capable of assessing the purity and speciation of paramagnetic complexes, and also provides a convenient method to provide qualitative and sometimes quantitative molecular weight data.

Abstract	In the present study, we investigated the dynamics of a femtosecond (fs) laser induced bio-printing with cell-free and cell-laden jets under the variation of laser pulse energy and focus depth, by using time-resolved imaging. By increasing the laser pulse energy or decreasing the focus depth thresholds for a first and second jet are exceeded and more laser pulse energy is converted to kinetic jet energy. With increasing jet velocity, the jet behavior changes from a well-defined laminar jet, to a curved jet and further to an undesired splashing jet. We quantified the observed jet forms with the dimensionless hydrodynamic Weber and Rayleigh numbers and identified the Rayleigh breakup regime as the preferred process window for single cell bioprinting. Herein, the best spatial printing resolution of 42 ± 3 µm and single cell positioning precision of 12.4 µm are reached, which is less than one single cell diameter about 15 µm.

Abstract	SNARE proteins comprise a conserved protein family responsible for catalyzing membrane fusion during vesicle traffic. Syntaxin18 (STX18) is a poorly characterized endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-resident t-SNARE. Recently, together with TANGO1 and SLY1, its involvement was shown in ER to Golgi transport of collagen II during chondrogenesis. We report a fetus with a severe osteochondrodysplasia in whom we identified a homozygous substitution of the highly conserved p.Arg10 to Pro of STX18. CRISPR/Cas9-mediated Stx18 deficiency in zebrafish reveals a crucial role for Stx18 in cartilage and bone development. Furthermore, increased expression of multiple components of the Stx18 SNARE complex and of COPI and COPII proteins suggests that Stx18 deficiency impairs antero- and retrograde vesicular transport in the crispant stx18 zebrafish. Taken together, our studies highlight a new candidate gene for a recessive form of osteochondrodysplasia, thereby possibly broadening the SNAREopathy phenotypic spectrum and opening new doors toward future research avenues. © 2023 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Abstract	Background: Encounters with rats in urban areas increase risk of human exposure to rat-associated zoonotic pathogens and act as a stressor associated with psychological distress. The frequency and nature of human-rat encounters may be altered by social distancing policies to mitigate the COVID-19 pandemic. For example, restaurant closures may reduce food availability for rats and promote rat activity in nearby residential areas, thus increasing public health risks during a period of public health crisis. In this study, we aimed to identify factors associated with increased perceived exposure to rats during a stay-at-home order, describe residents' encounters with rats relevant to their health and well-being, and identify factors associated with increased use of rodent control. Methods: Urban residents in Chicago, a large city with growing concerns about rats and health disparities, completed an online questionnaire including fixed response and open-ended questions during the spring 2020 stay-at-home order. Analyses included ordinal multivariate regression, spatial analysis, and thematic analysis for open-ended responses. Results: Overall, 21% of respondents (n = 835) reported an increase in rat sightings around their homes during the stay-at-home order and increased rat sightings was positively associated with proximity to restaurants, low-rise apartment buildings, and rat feces in the home (p ≤ 0.01). Many respondents described feeling unsafe using their patio or yard, and afraid of rats entering their home or spreading disease. Greater engagement with rodent control was associated with property ownership, information about rat control, and areas with lower incomes (p ≤ 0.01). Conclusions: More frequent rat encounters may be an unanticipated public health concern during periods of social distancing, especially in restaurant-dense areas or in low-rise apartment buildings. Rat presence may also limit residents' ability to enjoy nearby outdoor spaces, which otherwise might buffer stress experienced during a stay-at-home order. Proactive rat control may be needed to mitigate rat-associated health risks during future stay-at-home orders.

Abstract	Seasonal mismatches between electricity supply and demand is increasing due to expanded use of wind, solar and hydropower resources, which in turn raises the interest on low-cost seasonal energy storage options. Seasonal pumped hydropower storage (SPHS) can provide long-term energy storage at a relatively low-cost and co-benefits in the form of freshwater storage capacity. We present the first estimate of the global assessment of SPHS potential, using a novel plant-siting methodology based on high-resolution topographical and hydrological data. Here we show that SPHS costs vary from 0.007 to 0.2 US$ m

Abstract	Advanced omics technologies and facilities generate a wealth of valuable data daily; however, the data often lacks the essential metadata required for researchers to find and search them effectively. The lack of metadata poses a significant challenge in the utilization of these datasets. Machine learning-based metadata extraction techniques have emerged as a potentially viable approach to automatically annotating scientific datasets with the metadata necessary for enabling effective search. Text labeling, usually performed manually, plays a crucial role in validating machine-extracted metadata. However, manual labeling is time-consuming; thus, there is an need to develop automated text labeling techniques in order to accelerate the process of scientific innovation. This need is particularly urgent in fields such as environmental genomics and microbiome science, which have historically received less attention in terms of metadata curation and creation of gold-standard text mining datasets. In this paper, we present two novel automated text labeling approaches for the validation of ML-generated metadata for unlabeled texts, with specific applications in environmental genomics. Our techniques show the potential of two new ways to leverage existing information about the unlabeled texts and the scientific domain. The first technique exploits relationships between different types of data sources related to the same research study, such as publications and proposals. The second technique takes advantage of domain-specific controlled vocabularies or ontologies. In this paper, we detail applying these approaches for ML-generated metadata validation. Our results show that the proposed label assignment approaches can generate both generic and highly-specific text labels for the unlabeled texts, with up to 44% of the labels matching with those suggested by a ML keyword extraction algorithm.
