    Abstract Synthetic seismograms provide a crucial link between lithologic variations within a drill hole and reflectors on seismic profiles crossing the site. In essence, they provide a ground-truth for the interpretation of seismic data. Using a combination of core and logging data, we created synthetic seismograms for Ocean Drilling Program Sites 1165 and 1166, drilled during Leg 188, and Site 742, drilled during Leg 119, all in Prydz Bay, Antarctica. Results from Site 1165 suggest that coring penetrated a target reflector initially thought to represent the onset of drift sedimentation, but the lithologic change across the boundary does not show a change from predrift to drift sediments. The origin of a shallow reflector packet in the seismic line across Site 1166 and a line connecting Sites 1166 and 742 was resolved into its constituent sources, as this reflector occurs in a region of large-scale, narrowly spaced impedance changes. Furthermore, Site 1166 was situated in a fluvio-deltaic system with widely variable geology, and bed thickness changes were estimated between the site and both seismic lines.

    Abstract This socially conscious, culturally relevant book explores the little-known history and present climate of Black people in the medical field. It reveals the deficiencies in the American healthcare structure that have contributed to the mismanagement of healthcare in the Black population, and examines cross-currents that intersect with the major events in minority medical history. Illustrated across 10 expertly written chapters, this text features a longitudinal timeline with the presentation of evidence-based information drawn from historical, political, and clinical sources. The book begins with an analysis of diseases particularly prevalent in the Black community due to socioeconomic inequalities in available medical care. These diseases include sickle cell anemia, hypertension, heart failure, drug addiction, and HIV/AIDS. Bolstered by profiles of historically well-known Black physicians, stories of success in medical education, and the remarkable impact of Black medical organizations, subsequent chapters address the triumphs and tribulations of the Black medical professional in America. Concluding with an examination of the current health status of Black people in the United States, the book makes a case for future systemic improvements in healthcare delivery to minority communities. A unique, noteworthy reference, Blacks in Medicine: Clinical, Demographic, and Socioeconomic Correlations is written for a broad range of physicians and health providers, as well as professionals in the social sciences and public health.

    Abstract The field of kink (or BDSM) studies has grown significantly in recent years, with several areas of study being initiated. This paper summarizes the current state of kink research, including prevalence rates; marginalization and stigma; key biological, psychological, and social research findings; clinical issues; and recommendations for further research. Theoretical frameworks, such as minority stress, serious leisure, sexual orientation, personal growth, and sensation-seeking theories appear to be useful frameworks outside of approaches that assume psychopathology as an etiological factor. Studies find the following results: higher levels of sensation-seeking; kink activities generating states of flow and transient hypofrontality; notable levels of gender, sexual orientation, and relationship style diversity in kink samples; and higher levels of minority stress-related suicidality.

    Abstract Aims: Rare, deleterious genetic variants in FLT4 are associated with Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), the most common cyanotic congenital heart disease (CHD). Distinct genetic variants in FLT4 are also an established cause of Milroy disease, the most prevalent form of primary hereditary lymphoedema. Phenotypic features of these two conditions are non-overlapping, implying pleiotropic cellular mechanisms during development.
    Methods and results: Here, we show that FLT4 variants identified in TOF patients, when expressed in primary human endothelial cells, cause aggregation of FLT4 protein in the perinuclear endoplasmic reticulum, activating proteostatic and metabolic signalling, whereas lymphoedema-associated FLT4 variants and wildtype FLT4 do not. FLT4 TOF variants display characteristic gene expression profiles in key developmental signalling pathways, revealing a role for FLT4 in cardiogenesis distinct from its role in lymphatic development. Inhibition of proteostatic signalling abrogates these effects, identifying potential avenues for therapeutic intervention. Depletion of flt4 in zebrafish caused cardiac phenotypes of reduced heart size and altered heart looping. These phenotypes were rescued with coinjection of wildtype human FLT4 mRNA, but incompletely or not at all by mRNA harbouring FLT4 TOF variants.
    Conclusions: Taken together, we identify a pathogenic mechanism for FLT4 variants predisposing to TOF that is distinct from the known dominant negative mechanism of Milroy-causative variants. FLT4 variants give rise to conditions of the two circulatory subdivisions of the vascular system via distinct developmental pleiotropic molecular mechanisms.
    Translational perspective: Proteostatic dysfunction, if confirmed as a mechanism of CHD pathogenesis for other predisposing genes, may identify pathways to therapeutic interventions. Distinguishing mechanistically how variants in FLT4 give rise to CHD may have potential to individualise genetic counselling in affected families.

    Abstract Molecular simulations have become a key tool in molecular and materials design. Machine learning (ML)-based potential energy functions offer the prospect of simulating complex molecular systems efficiently at quantum chemical accuracy. In previous work, we have introduced the ML-based PairF-Net approach to neural network potentials, that adopts a pairwise interatomic scheme to predicting forces within a molecular system. Here, we further develop the PairF-Net model to intrinsically incorporate energy conservation and couple the model to a molecular mechanical (MM) environment within the OpenMM package. The updated PairF-Net model yields energy and force predictions and dynamical distributions in good agreement with the rMD17 dataset of ten small organic molecules in the gas-phase. We further show that these in vacuo ML models of small molecules can be applied to force predictions in aqueous solution via hybrid ML/MM simulations. We present a new benchmark dataset for these ten molecules in solution, obtained from QM/MM simulations, which we denote as rMD17-aq (https://zenodo.org/records/10048644); and assess the ability of PairF-Net to reproduce the molecular energy, atomic forces and dynamical distributions of these solution conformations via ML/MM simulations.
