    Abstract The McLean Screening Instrument for Borderline Personality Disorder (MSI-BPD) is a popular screening tool for identifying people who may have borderline personality disorder (BPD). However, because women are more frequently diagnosed with the disorder than men, it is possible that the MSI-BPD differs in its ability to identify BPD as a function of gender identity. Using item response theory (IRT), we sought to determine if components of the MSI-BPD would demonstrate differential item functioning (DIF), such that one gender identity would be more likely to endorse certain items. Twenty-two thousand thirty-five college undergraduates (14,305 women) aged 18-55 years (

    Abstract Chronic emptiness in borderline personality disorder (BPD) has received little empirical attention. We sought to examine basic properties of a single chronic emptiness item, including prevalence, reliability, validity, the relation of the emptiness item to other BPD criteria, and measures of personality. Undergraduates enrolled in psychology courses over 12 years' time completed the McLean Screening Instrument for Borderline Personality Disorder (MSI-BPD) (N = 22,217). Subsets of participants completed the International Personality Disorder Examination-Screening Questionnaire (IPDE-SQ) (N = 2732), The Revised NEO Personality Inventory (Anxiety, Angry Hostility, Depression, Positive Emotions [reversed], and Impulsivity facets) (N = 10,506), and the Depression Anxiety Stress Scales (DASS) (N = 1110) as validity indicators; 10.0% of respondents endorsed emptiness. Reliability indices suggested moderate levels of reliability between two emptiness items (r(2730) = 0.61, p < 0.001). Among BPD criteria, emptiness and identity disturbance correlated most strongly (r(22,215) = 0.81, p < 0.001). MSI emptiness was more correlated with depression on the NEO (r(10,504) = 0.43, p < 0.001) and DASS (r(1108) = 0.51, p < 0.001) than other facets of negative affect. Emptiness was more correlated with greater borderline pathology than any other MSI-BPD item (Sample 1, r

    Abstract Aligned graphenic fragments of varying size, mimicking those found in carbons carbonized through a mesophase, are found to self-assemble towards structures of varying anisotropy when annealed using molecular dynamics simulations. These models enable us to probe the range of topological features present in carbons of varying anisotropy where we find significant differences in the defects present. We conclude that the screw dislocation is the dominant annealable defect in graphitizable carbons, while a persistence of saddle-shaped defects may make some carbons less graphitizable. These findings contribute to the ongoing questions surrounding the factors which determine precursor graphitizability.

    Abstract The self-assembly and structure of nanoparticles containing curved polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon molecules (cPAHs) are investigated using molecular modelling. These polar fullerene-like molecules are receiving increased attention recently due to the steric and electronic properties caused by the inclusion of five-membered ring(s) within their hexagonal lattice. In this work, the curPAHIP potential is extended to describe the interactions between large cPAHs. It is then used within molecular dynamics simulations to produce nanoparticles containing cPAHs. Structural and energetic metrics, including diameter, density, intermolecular spacing, coordination number, alignment angle, radial distance, and energy value, are used to analyse systems containing cPAHs of different sizes and ratios, and containing flat PAHs or ions. Homogeneous cPAH particles are more tightly packed than their flat PAH counterparts, with large cPAHs displaying stacked columnar configurations absent in nanoparticles containing small cPAHs. Mixing cPAHs of different sizes disrupts the ordered mesophase and forms a core-shell structure in which the larger molecules make up the core and the smaller molecules comprise the shell, although this partitioning is less distinct compared to flat PAHs. In addition, the presence of flat PAHs and ions within cPAH nanoparticles promotes distinct arrangements dominated by weak dispersive interactions and strong electrostatic interactions, respectively.

    Abstract The thermal stability of cross-links between polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) is critical for understanding the formation of soot pollutants, graphite, and carbon blacks. Recently, a variety of different π-radicals have been directly imaged and suggested to enable thermally stable bonding; however, a systematic study of reactivity has been lacking. In this work, we use density functional theory to study the reactivity of PAH π-radicals. The Mulliken spin densities are initially used to categorize the different classes of localization, and the bond energy is computed to determine the degree of localization required for thermal stability. The results showed that the bond energies of PAHs are strongly correlated with the calculated spin densities, but bond energies do not exist with the bond lengths due to significant rearrangement and steric effects during bond formation. A threshold for π-radical localization is suggested that will be stable in combustion and pyrolysis environments of ρ

    Abstract Purpose: To report a case of syphilitic interstitial keratitis successfully managed with topical tacrolimus after the development of steroid-induced intraocular pressure elevation in a pediatric patient.
    Observations: A 4-year-old female with a history of congenital syphilis that was reportedly treated after birth presented with bilateral conjunctival redness, tearing, and photosensitivity. Initial ophthalmic examination revealed corneal vascularization with diffuse haze of the right eye and circumferential vascularization with stromal infiltrates of the left eye. She was diagnosed with bilateral syphilitic interstitial keratitis and initially managed with topical steroids but developed steroid-induced elevation of her intraocular pressure. She experienced several recurrences of keratitis as steroids were tapered. After a recurrence in her right eye, she was treated with topical tacrolimus. Since then, she has remained recurrence-free for almost three years with normal intraocular pressure.
    Conclusion and importance: Tacrolimus represents a novel alternative for the treatment of syphilitic interstitial keratitis, which is particularly useful in patients that develop elevated intraocular pressures in response to long-term treatment with steroid eye drops.
