During his bio-archaeol. Last Mysteries of the Titanic expedition in 2005, explorer James Cameron observed the RMS Titanic's Turkish Baths, an anoxic chamber secluded from currents deep within the wreck's remote interior, utilizing the ROV Skipper.There, Cameron discovered anomalously thin, vertical, and bifurcating rusticle formations he termed "Rustflowers.Proposing magnetotaxis as the involved mechanism, this study analyzed rusticles salvaged from Titanic's #8 davit bitt utilizing ferromagnetic resonance, which demonstrated an asym. spectrum featuring prominent uniaxial over magnetocrystalline anisotropy fields of B_uni = 110 mT and B_cub = -23 mT, linewidth parameters of ΔB = 200 mT, ΔB_FWHM = 144 mT, ΔB_high = 37 mT, ΔB_low = 107 mT, and asymmetry ratio of A = 0.35, and α = 0.20.These represent the established signature of biogenic magnetofossil chains synthesized by former magnetotactic bacteria, enduring within the rusticle cortex.Electron microscopy and chem. anal. identified single-domain range magnetite nanocrystals, and crystalline elemental sulfur inclusions, resp.Chemosynthetic microbial iron oxy-hydroxide accretions guided upward along geomagnetic field lines by north-seeking magnetotaxis, under reducing conditions exhibited in Titanic's Turkish Baths, may account for the distinctive morphol. of its.Rustflowers; adding dimension to the bacterial application of iron assimilated from deep-sea sources, including shipwrecks.

Caregiver Faculty: Working through a Pandemic

Article

Author: Marshall, Debra ; Hoskin, Sara

Myriad research examines benefits and drawbacks of working from home, both pre- and post-pandemic. Our research looks at how work from home mandates due to the COVID-19 pandemic were implemented, primarily by those who also had caregiver roles to fulfill. We used a convenience sample, drawing from full-time college faculty at a mid-sized state college in Florida, gathering information from caregivers and non-caregivers for comparative purposes. As we analyzed our data, we considered two additional concepts: Elmore’s backward mapping, which asks us to consider how employer mandates are implemented and will assist us in making policy recommendations, and Smith’s Standpoint, which allowed us to consider our own different gendered experiences as we analyzed survey responses. Our findings reveal that there are some employees well suited to working from home, while others are less enthusiastic about this initiative, and that a significant factor is household caregiving responsibilities, often considered to be the domain of women. Our insights shed light on differences in caregiver-employee statuses; we hope to help guide effective institutional policy should there be a need for workplaces to shut down again and to encourage administrators to consider faculty who may be a good work from home fit should it be considered for everyday work. Understanding where the strengths and weaknesses were/are for workers who work from home will benefit employers.

Thyroid dysfunction in pregnancy

Author: Katherine Pereira ; Jahangir Moini ; Mohtashem Samsam

Abstract Pregnancy affects the thyroid gland and its function in many ways because of the influences of hormones. Diagnosis and treatment of thyroid dysfunction during pregnancy, and in the postpartum period, is complicated. However, knowledge about the interaction between pregnancy and the thyroid gland has vastly improved overtime. Because of this interaction, laboratory tests of thyroid function must be interpreted very carefully. Thyroid function tests change as gestation continues, mostly from the influence of human chorionic gonadotropin and estrogen, which is the primary female hormone. The thyroid is functioning normally if all hormones are normal throughout pregnancy. For the first part of pregnancy the fetus is totally dependent on the mother for the production of thyroid hormone. The World Health Organization recommends iodine intake of 200 μg/day while pregnant, in order to maintain adequate thyroid hormone function. The most common forms of thyroid dysfunction in pregnancy include thyrotoxicosis, Graves’ disease, subclinical hypothyroidism, Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, silent lymphocytic thyroiditis, and thyroid cancer.
