    Abstract Background: At high ambient temperatures in ICU rooms, the humidification performances of heated-wire humidifiers are significantly reduced, with delivered gas humidity well below 30 mg H
    Methods: We measured, on the bench, the hygrometry of inspiratory gases delivered by a new generation of heated-wire humidifiers (i) FP950, (ii) VHB20 and a previous generation of heated-wire humidifiers, (iii) MR850 (Fisher & Paykel) with the usual settings (37°C at the chamber/40°C at the Y-piece), (iv) MR850 with no temperature gradient (40°C/40°C), and (v) MR850 with the automatic compensation algorithm activated. Hygrometry was measured with the psychrometric method after 1 h of stability while varying the room temperature from 20 to 30°C.
    Results: Two hundred ninety-four hygrometric bench measurements were performed at steady state for the different tested conditions. With the new heated-wire humidifiers (FP950 and VHB20), gas humidity delivered remained > 30 mg H
    Conclusions: The new FP950 and VHB20 heated-wire humidifiers by using advanced algorithms demonstrated stable performance while varying the ambient temperature by 20-30°C, better than the previous generation of heated humidifiers when ambient temperatures were high.

    Abstract We describe here a new family of IS which are related to IS1202, originally isolated from Streptococcus pneumoniae in the mid-1990s and previously tagged as an emerging IS family in the ISfinder database. Members of this family have impacted some important properties of their hosts. We describe here another potentially important property of certain family members: specific targeting of xrs recombination sites. The family could be divided into three subgroups based on their transposase sequences and the length on the target repeats (DR) they generate on insertion: subgroup IS1202 (24-29 bp); ISTde1 (15-18 bp); and ISAba32 (5-6 bp). Members of the ISAba32 subgroup were repeatedly found abutting Xer recombinase recombination sites (xrs), separated by an intervening copy of a DR. These xrs sites, present in multiple copies in a number of Acinetobacter plasmids flanking antibiotic resistance genes, were proposed to form a new type of mobile genetic element using the chromosomally-encoded XerCD recombinase for mobility. Transposase alignments identified subgroup-specific indels which may be responsible for the differences in the transposition properties of the three subgroups (i.e. DR length and target specificity). We propose that this collection of IS be classed as a new insertion sequence family: the IS1202 family composed of three subgroups, only one of which specifically targets plasmid-borne xrs. We discuss the implications of xrs targeting for gene mobility.

    Series title International political economy series,
    Abstract This book conceptualises the ongoing hydropower expansion in Southwest China as a socio-political and transnational project transcending the construction of dams. Chapters in this volume are organised around three sections spanning hydropower and resettlement governance, rural livelihoods, and international relations connected to China’s hydropower expansion. Dam projects of various scales are analysed as infrastructure projects that shape peoples’ livelihoods, the environment, and China’s relations with Southeast Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Jean-François Rousseau is Assistant Professor at the School of International Development and Global Studies at the University of Ottawa. His research focuses on nature-society relations and addresses the relationships between agrarian change, infrastructure development, and ethnic minority livelihood diversification in Southwest China. Sabrina Habich-Sobiegalla is Assistant Professor at the Institute of Chinese Studies at Freie Universität Berlin. Her research interests include regional development, central-local relations, and energy and resource governance with a focus on China. She is the author of the book, Dams, Migration and Authoritarianism in China: The Local State in Yunnan, published by Routledge.

    Abstract Background: Only few studies analyzed real training programs of sprinters while that should be a valuable step in the understanding of sprint training. The present study aimed at characterizing track cycling sprinter training by training load and intensity distribution.
    Methods: Twenty-nine weeks of prechampionship training data were retrospectively analyzed for 6 world-class athletes. Training load was measured by the ratio of volume completed to maximal volume and categorized by five intensity zones (endurance: zones1-2; sprinting: zones3-5) and exercise type (on-bike or resistance). Intra-week (training monotony) and inter-week (acute-chronic workload ratio) variation was also studied.
    Results: On-bike training represented 77.4±15.3% of total training load; resistance training, 22.6±15.2% (note high standard deviation). Total weekly training load significantly varied (P=0.0002) with high acute-chronic workload ratio (12.0±3.2 weeks >1.5 or <0.8), but low intra-week variations (training monotony, 1.81±0.20). Zone4 and zone5 made up 74.4±16.9% of total training load; zone1, 15.8±11%. Training load was seldom in zone2 (6.4±5.3%) or zone3 (3.3±4.2%). From the first to the second half of the period, zone3-4 training load decreased (39.3±3.3 to 27.4±1.7%; P=0.01), while zone5 increased (34.9±2.4 to 50±3.7%; P=0.002).
    Conclusions: In this reduced group of elite athletes, training appeared to mainly consist of on-bike exercises within the highest intensity zones. As demonstrated by monotony and acute-chronic workload ratio overloading and unloading are based on high variations over weeks, not days. Essentially, this study describes a polarized intensity distribution on the highest intensities which increased with world championships approach.

    Abstract Background: Minor burns could be associated with moderate hypermetabolism. In this study, the primary outcome was measured energy expenditure (mEE) determined by indirect calorimetry in patients with minor burns. We also compared mEE with predictive values and actual energy intakes.
    Methods: Adults with minor burns exclusively treated on an outpatient basis were included. During the week following injury, a dietitian performed indirect calorimetry (Q-NRG in canopy mode), calculated the estimated energy expenditure (eEE) based on the Harris-Benedict (HB) and Henry formulas, and evaluated daily energy intakes using a food anamnesis.
    Results: Forty-nine patients (59.2% male; median age: 35 [interquartile range: 29-46.5] years; body mass index [BMI]: 26.2 [22.3-29.6] kg/m
    Conclusion: Performing indirect calorimetry in adults with minor burns revealed that ≥40% of the tested adults presented a hypermetabolism and that their mEE was not covered by their energy intakes.

    Abstract The regulation of exercise intensity allows an athlete to perform an exercise in the fastest possible time while avoiding debilitating neuromuscular fatigue development. This phenomenon is less studied during intermittent activities. To investigate anticipatory and real-time regulation of motor output and neuromuscular fatigue during repeated-sprint exercise, twelve males randomly performed one (S1), two (S2), four (S4) and six (S6) sets of five 5-s cycling sprints. Mechanical work and electromyographic activity were assessed during sprints. Potentiated quadriceps twitch force (ΔQ

    Abstract: ... Mediterranean and Alpine biogeographic regions of France. The dataset contains 2 236 georeferenced plots ...

    Abstract The interface between wetlands and uplands is characterized by gradients in hydrological, soil and biological components. Consequently, the exact spatial distribution of this transitional area is not well known because it often occurs as a fuzzy moisture gradient. However, ecological assessment and conservation require mapping and characterizing this interface to better understand and model biotic and abiotic interactions between wetlands and uplands. To this end, in 2021 and 2022, we observed soil properties and vegetation types along soil moisture gradients throughout the Atlantic, Continental, Mediterranean and Alpine biogeographic regions of France. The dataset contains 2 236 georeferenced plots (accuracy ± 5 m) distributed along 1 088 transects placed along the slope at 377 sites. Each plot in the database is characterized by 21 fields that describe the vegetation habitat type based on the European Nature Information System (EUNIS) and soil properties (i.e. depth of appearance and thickness of redoximorphic features in the soil profile, moisture). These data are useful for researchers and engineers in a variety of disciplines (e.g. Earth and life sciences) to calibrate and validate models to predict the spatial distribution of habitats or to analyze flows.
