Differential freezing resistance and photoprotection in C3 and C4 eudicots and grasses

Globally, C4 plants dominate hot, open environments, but this general pattern is underpinned by important differences in the biogeography of C4 lineages. In particular, the species richness of C4 Poaceae (grasses) increases strongly with increasing temperature, whereas that of the major C4 eudicot group Chenopodiaceae correlates positively with aridity. Freezing tolerance is a crucial determinant of biogeographical relationships with temperature and is mediated by photodamage and cellular disruption by desiccation, but little is known about differences between C4 families. This study hypothesized that there is a greater risk of freezing damage via these mechanisms in C4 Poaceae than Chenopodiaceae, that freezing protection differs between the taxonomic groups, and that freezing tolerance of species is linked to arid habitat preference. Chlorophyll fluorescence, water relations, and freezing injury were compared in four C3 and six C4 species of Poaceae and Chenopodiaceae from the same Mongolian flora. Contrary to expectations, freezing-induced leaf mortality and photodamage were lower in Poaceae than Chenopodiaceae species, and unrelated to photosynthetic pathway. The freezing resistance of Poaceae species resulted from constitutive protection and cold acclimation and an ability to protect the photosynthetic apparatus from photodamage. Freezing protection was associated with low osmotic potential and low tissue elasticity, and freezing damage was accompanied by electrolyte leakage, consistent with cell-membrane disruption by ice. Both Chenopodiaceae and Poaceae had the potential to develop cold acclimation and withstand freezing during the growing season, which conflicted with the hypothesis. Instead, freezing tolerance was more closely associated with life history and ecological preference in these Mongolian species

Analysis of role of Magnet designation in developing a culture of professional nursing partnerships and evidence-based practice in the ICU: an expanded secondary analysis of a national ICU survey

The American Nurse Credentialing Center (ANCC) Magnet® hospital designation indicates a hospital’s commitment to patient-centered care; evidence-based nursing practice, and a culture of interprofessional collaboration. A key characteristic of Magnet institutions is participation in generating new knowledge. The purpose of this study was to determine, in a random sample of US adult acute care hospitals, if Magnet designation was associated with greater rates of research participation of ICU nurse managers, and among hospitals with participating nurse managers if there were differences between Magnet and non-Magnet hospitals on measures of interprofessional collaboration and the demographics of nursing leadership. We conducted an expanded secondary analysis of data from an online survey of ICU nurse managers and medical directors regarding practices, barriers, and facilitators related to interdisciplinary family meetings. The parent study sample (n= 525) was randomly selected from the 2015 American Hospital Association database and stratified by region, hospital size and model of intensivist care. We obtained contact information and surveyed 304 nurse managers; of those, 164 completed the survey. Subsequently, we compared responses from Magnet and non-Magnet participants on their ICU’s practices as well as managers’ level of education and experience. Fifty-four of 525 sampled hospitals were Magnet designated; and 29 of 164 respondents were from Magnet designated hospitals. Nurse managers of Magnet ICUs were significantly more likely to receive and return the survey (53%) compared to those of non-Magnet ICUs (29%), p < 0.001. Regarding patient and family-centered interprofessional collaborative practices, RNs at Magnet hospitals were significantly more likely to attend team rounds (p=0.027) and ICUs were significantly more likely to include families in team rounds (p=0.006). However, we found no differences between Magnet and non-Magnet ICUs regarding nurse manager education and experience or other measures of interprofessional collaborative practice. Overall, nurse managers of Magnet hospital ICUs demonstrated a significantly greater willingness to provide contact information and complete the survey, which may suggest a greater commitment to knowledge generation through research participation. Magnet ICUs were more likely to include nurses and families in team rounds, demonstrating empirical nurse-centered Magnet outcomes indicative of empowered nursing and patient-centered care

Stalin Automobile Factories during 1941-1945: Challenges of War and Paths to Adaptation

This study examines the operation of the Stalin automobile factories during the Great Patriotic War, focusing on their evacuation, reorganization, and adaptation to wartime conditions. It addresses issues of production management, technological cooperation, and crisis resolution. The research aims to analyze the processes of evacuation and reorganization within the Soviet automobile industry, as well as to evaluate the effectiveness of production management under wartime circumstances. The sources utilized include archival documents from the Russian State Archive of Economics, the Russian State Archive of Socio-Political History, and other repositories, encompassing regulatory, reporting, and statistical materials. Methods employed include retrospective analysis, content analysis, and statistical data processing. The author concludes that the evacuation of the Moscow Stalin Automobile Plant and the establishment of new facilities in the Urals and Volga region enabled the preservation of the production capacity of the automobile industry. It is established that the organization of the Main Administration of Stalin Automobile Plants (Glavavtozis) facilitated the coordination of operations among disparate enterprises. The study illustrates that the management experience and design developments accumulated during the war were instrumental in the post-war reconstruction of the country

Ulyanovsk Automobile Plant during Great Patriotic War: Problem of Personnel and Its Solution

The process of the labor collective formation of the Ulyanovsk Automobile Plant during the Great Patriotic War is studied. The relevance of the study is due to the need for a detailed study of the mechanisms of the automotive industry functioning in the extreme conditions of the Great Patriotic War. Documents on the history of the enterprise evacuation, materials of the primary party organization of the automobile plant, office work documentation of the party and state authorities, factory and departmental reports, and eye-witness accounts of the events were used as sources. The process of creating the Ulyanovsk Automobile Plant, constructed on the basis of the evacuated equipment and labor resources of the Moscow Automobile Plant named after I.V. Stalin (ZIS), is considered. Changes in the number and composition of the enterprise's employees during 1941—1945 are analyzed. Particular attention is paid to the interdependence of the change in the number of employees of the plant on the volume of industrial output. It is concluded that thanks to the evacuation of experienced engineers, production managers and highly skilled workers, it was possible to maintain and recreate hightech production in the rear areas of the country. It was noted that the enterprises created during the evacuation laid the foundation for the development of automotive production in the Volga region and the Urals
