Cardio‐respiratory, haematological and lactate responses of breeding calves to treadmill exercise

Zusammenfassung Kardio-Respiratorische und Hamatologische Reaktionen und Veranderungen von Laktat bei Aufzuchtkalbern wahrend Laufbandversuchen Zur Untersuchung der physiologischen Anpassungsmoglichkeit wahrend des Laufens bei unterschiedlichen Geschwindigkeiten auf einer Tretmuhle wurden bei sieben weiblichen Aufzuchtkalbern zwei unterschiedliche Methoden (Experimente 1 und 2) bei einem Lebendgewicht von 90, 140 und 180 kg getestet. Im Experiment 1 liefen die Kalber an unterschiedlichen Tagen bei einer Laufgeschwindigkeit von 0.8, 1.1, 1.3 und 1.5 m/S. Im Experiment 2, das 18 Min dauerte, wurde ausgehend von einer anfanglichen Laufgeschwindigkeit von 0.5 m/S, die Geschwindigkeit alle 3 Min um 0.2 m/S bis auf 1.5 m/S erhoht. Basierend auf beiden Methoden konnten vergleichbare Schusfolgerungen gezogen werden. Nach Laufbeginn stiegen Herzfrequenz (HR), Atemfrequenz (RR), Atemminuten-volumen (VE), Sauertoffverbrauch (VO2), Kohlendioxydproduktion (VCO2) sowie Hamoglobin, Hamatokrit und die Blutlaktatkonzentration an. Die kardiorespiratorischen Parameter erreichten in beiden Experimenten innerhalb von 3 Min einen neuen Gleichgewichtszustand, der proportional zur Belastungsintensitat, d.h. der Laufbelastung stand. Ausnahmen waren die Atemfrequenz, welche das Maximum bereits bei der tiefsten Laufgeschwindigkeit erreichte und die Sauerstoffextraktionsrate (FO2), welche sich wahrend des Laufens nicht veranderte. Unmittelbar nach dem Laufen sanken die Werte der verschiedenen Parameter gegen und FO2 unter die Ausgangswerte ab. Die Anpassung an das Laufen erfolgte also rasch. Basierend auf Messungen von VE, VO2, HR, RR und Laktat verbesserte sich die Anpassungsfahigkeit and die physische Belastung mit zunehmendem Korpergewicht.
Two rotator cuff tear repair techniques for sovraspinatus tendon tear: transosseous sharc-ft vs single row repair.

BACKGROUND Despite rotator cuff repair techniques have developed significantly in last decade, pushed by the progress in technology and materials, the treatment of rotator cuff tears and re-tears is still a big challenge for shoulder surgeons. The aim of this study is to perform clinical and radiological evaluation (ultrasound and MRI) of patients treated with transosseous sharc-ft, and single row techniques for sovraspinatus rotator cuff tear at 6, 12 and 24 months follow up. METHODS Twenty-eight consecutive patients who underwent arthroscopic repair for rotator cuff tear were enrolled in the study and divided in two different groups: group A (14 patients) underwent a single row technique repair; group B (14 patients) underwent a transosseous sharc-ft technique repair. All participants had MRI or ultrasound examination confirmed fullthickness tears of sovraspinatus tendon before surgery. All the patients underwent clinical evaluation at 45 days, 3 months, 6 months, 12 and 24 months post-operatively with VAS, Dash, Constant and ASES score. Diagnostic ultrasound examination was performed at 6 months follow up while the MRI examination at 1 and 2 year follow up. RESULTS The whole primary variables didn't show any significant difference and the groups were homogenous (age, Goutallier fatty infiltration, VAS, DASH, Constant, ASES). Some statistically significant differences are visible at discrete variables in a specific time: Dash at 12 months and Constant at 24 months show a significant improvement versus single-row technique. CONCLUSION The arthroscopic transosseous repair technique with sharc-ft showed excellent results with little significant statically difference between this technique and the single row for this kind of lesion after 1 year of follow-up. Clinical data from this study confirmed, with the help of ultrasound examination and MRI, the excellent clinical outcome obtained by the patients. Further studies are needed to find differences between these techniques in the repair of large and massive rotator cuff lesions. (www.actabiomedica.it).
Characterisation of Cross-Amplified Microsatellite Markers in the Red-Breasted Flycatcher Ficedula parva

Abstract. We tested 24 microsatellite markers for the red-breasted flycatcher, Ficedula parva, using the primers for the PCR reaction described for other species from genus Ficedula. The amplification efficiency, specificity of the products, and polymorphism of cross-amplified microsatellites were determined based on the genotypes of 65 adult males from a natural population breeding in Bialowieza Forest (Eastern Poland). Based on obtained results, we identified 9 highly polymorphic microsatellites, consistently amplifying in majority of individuals. Among those markers between 4 and 26 alleles per locus (mean 15.4) were found and the observed heterozygosity ranged from 0.393 to 0.939. The majority of loci (except for Fhy350 and Fhy458) were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Accordingly, the values of FIS did not significantly differ from zero 0, except for the locus Fhy350. We suggest that this locus could be loaded with high frequency of null alleles. The polymorphic information content (PIC) for the selected loci set was high and in all cases exceeded 0.82. In addition, we calculated, for each locus, the probability of excluding an improper parent. In majority of loci this parameter distinctly exceeded 0.5. These results demonstrate that tested microsatellite markers can be used to estimate the genetic variability within- and between populations and to establish paternity and parenthood in red-breasted flycatcher populations.
Behavior and Movement of Wild Turkey Broods

Behavioral and movement ecology of broods are among the most poorly understood aspects of wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) reproductive ecology. Recent declines in wild turkey productivity throughout the southeastern United States necessitate comprehensive evaluations of brood ecology across multiple spatial scales. We captured and marked 408 female wild turkeys with global positioning system (GPS)‐transmitters across 9 pine (Pinus spp.)‐dominated study sites in the southeastern United States during 2014–2019. We evaluated various aspects of the behavioral and movement ecology of 94 brood‐ rearing females until brood failure or 28 days after hatch (i.e., when poults are classified as juveniles). We found that 34 (36.2%) females had broods (≥1 poult) survive to 28 days after hatch. Broods moved >500m away from nest sites the day after hatching, and then moved progressively farther away from nest sites over time. Daily movements increased markedly the first 3 days after hatching, and broods moved >1,000m/day on average thereafter. Females roosted broods an average of 202m away from nest sites the first night after hatching, but distances between consecutive ground or tree roosts were variable thereafter. Daily core areas increased from 0.8 ha the day of hatch to 4.6 ha by day 28, and range sizes increased from 6.9 ha to 27.9 ha by day 28. Broods tended to consistently select open land cover types, whereas selection for other land cover types varied temporally after hatch day. Broods spent 89% of their time foraging. Predicted daily survival for broods decreased rapidly with increasing distance moved during the initial 3 days after hatching and showed less variation during the subsequent 2 weeks post‐hatch. Our findings parallel previous researchers noting that the most critical period for brood survival is the first week after hatch day. Previous researchers have attempted to identify vegetative communities used by broods under the assumption that these communities are a primary factor influencing brood success; however, our results suggest that brood survival is influenced by behavioral decisions related to movements during early brooding periods. © 2020 The Wildlife Society.
Effect of corm size and spacing on growth, flowering and corm production in gladiolus

The plant height, number of leaves/plant, time taken for blooming, spike length, quality of spike, number and size of corms and cormels produced were significantly improved by increasing size of mother corms Wider spacing also unproved growth, flowering, corm and cormel production parameters except number of leaves/plant and time taken for spike emergence and blooming. However, S3 (30×40 cm) and S4 (40×40 cm) treatments were found to be at par for the important parameters like plant height, spike length, number of florets/spike, number and size of conns and cormels. The different corm sizes and spacings treatments failed to exert any significant effect on size of florets and cormels.
Clinical and Demographic Features of 195 Pediatric Patients with Henoch-Schönlein Purpura, 12-Year Single Center Experience in Shiraz

Background: Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP) is one of the most common systemic types of vasculitis in children. Although it is a self-limited disease, life-threatening complications such as nephritis may occur. Early diagnosis and follow up might improve the long term outcome in renal involvement. There are few studies that have evaluated HSP in Iran. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate demographic, laboratory data and clinical presentations of admitted HSP patients in a tertiary referral center, over a twelve-year period. Methods: This retrospective descriptive study evaluated 195 patients, diagnosed with HSP, who were admitted to Namazi Hospital in southwest of Iran (2006 - 2018). Demographic, clinical and laboratory findings, as well as treatment outcome of HSP patients were collected. Results: There were 118 males and 77 females with the mean age of 6.7 ± 3.21 years. About 70 (36%) patients showed common cold symptoms two weeks before HSP presentations. Admission course was 1 - 17 days (mean 4.55 ± 2.83) and autumn was recorded with the highest number of admitted patients (44.1%). In the course of hospitalization, 100% of the patients presented with palpable purpura, 61.02% with joint pain and 19.49% with abdominal pain. Moreover, 17.95% of the patients were noted with renal involvement. Laboratory data shows that more than half of patients (54%) had leukocytosis, only 9% of patients had positive CRP but all the patients had high erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR). Total of 43.1% of the patients received corticosteroids. Conclusions: The observed number of male patients with HSP was higher than females and the highest frequency of the HSP cases was observed in autumn. Joint pain and abdominal pain were the predominant clinical presentations, following skin purpura. The presented data can help with further HSP diagnosis and treatment plan.
Biochemical analysis of fruiting bodies of Volvariella volvacea (local strain Vv pk) grown on six different substrates.

A local strain of Volvariella volvacea Vv pk, locally known as Chinese mushroom was cultivated on six different agricultural wastes including paddy straw, cotton waste, banana leaves, corn stovers, sugarcane baggasse and pulses straw. The study was conducted to know that how much a substrate contributes in the nutritional value of the fruiting bodies of the mushroom harvested from such substrate and to recommend the best substrate for the commercial cultivation of the mushroom with high levels of protein, crude fibre and certain other elements. The biochemical analysis of the fruiting bodies harvested from the substrates was done to estimate the moisture percentage, crude fat, protein, fiber, and ash contents. Maximum protein (34.17%), ash (10.8) and crude fiber percentage (11.9%) was observed in the fruiting bodies harvested from cotton waste. So, cotton waste is recommended as an effective substrate to grow Chinese mushroom on commercial scale.
Reliability, presentation, and relationships among data from inventories of forest condition.

Analysis of the variation within and between stands indicates that the variation is greater between stands than within. However, within-stand variation can be significant and should be taken into account when determining the number of trees to be sampled per stand. In even-aged, predominantly single-species stands, 24 trees may be insufficient to characterize the condition of the trees in the stand. The simplest and most commonly used method of presenting the results of annual assessments is cumulative bar charts of crown density. Tables documenting the change in crown densities from one year to the next of trees in a given crown density class provide more useful information and are recommended. Assessments of forest condition normally only record crown density and crown discoloration. Neither of these symptoms is specific to any particular cause. It is possible to record a wide variety of features when assessing the health of a tree. Generally, either crown density or crown discoloration (or both) is cor.
Morphological Phylogenetic Analysis of Basal Angiosperms: Comparison and Combination with Molecular Data

We have amassed structural data for 108 characters and 52 taxa of magnoliids and basal monocots and eudicots, including observations by P. K. Endress and A. Igersheim on flowers. These data were analyzed separately and in combination with rbcL, 18S, and atpB sequences. Besides confirming agreements between previous analyses of both kinds of data (reduction of Magnoliales to six families; relation of Piperaceae, Saururaceae, Lactoris, and Aristolochiaceae), trees based on this data set show shifts toward molecular results (separation of Illiciaceae and Schisandraceae from Winteraceae and of Amborella, Austrobaileya, Trimeniaceae, and Chloranthaceae from Laurales; relation of Winteraceae and Canellaceae) plus continued conflicts (association of Chloranthaceae with Amborella and Trimeniaceae and of Nymphaeales with monocots). In cases where molecular and morphological trees conflict, combined analyses of morphological and molecular data generally yield the same topologies as molecular analyses, but morphology overcomes weak molecular evidence in indicating that Chloranthaceae belong just above the basal grade, that monocots are related to Piperales, and that Lauraceae are linked with Hernandiaceae. If angiosperms are rooted by molecular data, chloranthoid leaf teeth, two‐trace nodes, columellar (not granular) pollen, and ascidiate carpels sealed by secretion are ancestral. Vesselless xylem is primitive in Amborella but secondary in Winteraceae and Trochodendraceae.
Beyond the Stereotype: Restating the Relevance of the Dependency Research Programme

This article evaluates the relevance of dependency theory for understand- ing contemporary development challenges, especially in the light of changes in the global economy over the past 50 years. In order to do so, the arti- cle rectiﬁes previous misunderstandings of the scholarship and offers a new deﬁnition of dependency theory as a research programme, rather than a sin- gular theory. Four core tenets of this research programme are identiﬁed: a global historical approach; theorizing of the polarizing tendencies of global capitalism; a focus on structures of production; and a focus on the speciﬁc constraints faced by peripheral economies. While each of these elements can be found in many contemporary theories, what makes dependency theory unique — and a particularly strong research programme — is the combin- ation of these elements. The article demonstrates how this approach provides a deep and broad understanding that is necessary to appreciate the persis- tence of uneven development with reference to two case studies, namely successful industrialization in South Korea, and how the fragmentation of global value chains has impacted industrialization in Indonesia. Finally, the article argues that approaching these kinds of cases through a dependency research programme can contribute to a fruitful renewal of development studies.
Effect of incorporation of honey on chilled storage and sensory acceptance of probiotic Melon Manis Terengganu (Cucumis melo var inodorus cv. Manis Terengganu 1) juice

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of 28 days of chilled storage (4C) on Melon Manis Terengganu (MMT) juice, probiotic MMT juice and probiotic MMT juice with 3.9% honey. Furthermore, determination of sensory evaluation of these three juices using acceptance test was carried out as well. It was found that for all MMT juice samples with 28 days of chilled storage resulted in increased total soluble solid, decreased viscosity and no significant difference in titratable acidity. Besides, the pH of control MMT juice did not change, but the pH of both probiotic MMT juices decreased. It was found that there was no yeast and mould growth in probiotic MMT juice with 3.9% honey until the 28-day storage. However, yeast and mould growth appeared after 21 days of chilled storage for both control MMT juice and probiotic MMT juice, with control MMT juice having the higher yeast and mould count. During chilled storage, there was no LAB count and no significant change in biomass in control MMT juice, but there was a decreasing trend for LAB count and biomass for probiotic MMT juice after 21 days of storage. However, for probiotic MMT juice with honey, LAB count did not change significantly, while its biomass was higher than probiotic MMT juice after 14 days of chilled storage. Sensory evaluation found that there was no significant difference (p<0.05) in acceptability of all MMT juice samples for sourness, overall acceptability and odour attributes. For colour attribute, probiotic MMT juice gave similar colour attribute acceptance with other samples. However, both probiotic juices gave lower acceptability scores for flavour and sweetness attributes compared to control MMT juice. This study found that the most acceptable formulation was control MMT juice, followed by MMT probiotic juice and finally MMT probiotic juice with 3.9% honey.
Prior and post peaks compressive behavior of concrete-filled double-skin tubular columns with BFRP-punched-in outer steel and BFRP-circular inner steel

Fiber-reinforced polymer composites have been widely used to design fiber-reinforced polymer–based confined concrete columns with potential benefits. However, it is critical to design a column with sufficient post-peak performance that can prevent its collapse at the rupture of the fiber-reinforced polymer tube. This article presents the experimental results on the prior and post peaks behavior of concrete-filled double-skin tubular columns with basalt fiber-reinforced polymer (BFRP)–punched-in outer steel and BFRP-circular inner steel (BFST-DSTCs). Twenty-two specimens were tested under axial compression to investigate the effects of design parameters on the behavior of the BFST-DSTC. The outcomes reveal that the BFST-DSTC exhibits the best performance in terms of load capacity, confinement ratio, failure and damage mechanisms, and ductility in prior and post peaks. The inner fiber-reinforced polymer jacket delays the buckling of the inner tube. The punched-in patterns of the outer steel improve the confinement effectiveness of the fiber-reinforced polymer jacket. The BFST-DSTC displays a good post-peak performance with high-energy dissipation capacity that prevents the concerned structure from collapse after the fiber-reinforced polymer jacket rupture. Finally, a new confinement model is proposed to predict the ultimate point of the confined concrete.
VFR travel interactions through the lens of the host

Visiting friends and relatives (VFR) travel is a substantial segment of tourism globally. In many countries, VFR travel represents a large proportion of visitor movement. The size of the segment is often underestimated because official data only reveal VFR by purpose of visit or VFR by accommodation, contributing to the underestimation of the size of VFR travel. Similarly, there is a lack of research that considers the role of the VFR host in VFR travel which results in a lack of understanding. Clearly, the role of the host is critical in VFR travel and it is what centrally defines VFR. This study contributes to the research in VFR travel through providing research related to hosting VFRs. Of note, this study was undertaken in Turkey, which makes a significant contribution to scholarship given the lack of research that has been undertaken outside of Australia, New Zealand, Canada, the United Kingdom and the United States, which are the areas in which VFR travel research has dominated. This study determined the profiles and characteristics of 423 VFR travellers to Nevsehir, Turkey, and their hosts. Accordingly, this study provides a significant contribution to the scholarship of tourism by providing rich data on an area of tourism (hosting VFRs) that had to date, been overlooked.
COGNITIVE PERCEPTIONS OF PRE-SERVİCE SCIENCE TEACHER FOR ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION

This research aims to determine cognitive structures about environmental pollution of pre-service science teachers and their perceptions of the most important environmental pollution in their lives. Data have been obtained from 33 pre-service science teachers. In this research, both quantitative and qualitative research methods were used together. Data is collected with word association test, open-ended questions, and drawing technique. The data obtained were analyzed using descriptive analysis and content analysis methods. According to the data obtained from the word association test, environmental pollution was put into four categories. These categories are ‘sources of pollution’, ‘types of pollution’, ‘consequences caused by pollution’ and ‘those affected by pollution’. The pre-service teachers drew mostly air pollution and then water and soil pollution in their drawings. Similarly, pre-service teachers wrote mostly air and water pollution as the most important environmental pollution. The majority of the pre-service teachers were seen to have the perception that humans cause environmental pollution. However, it was determined that some pre-service teachers hardly mentioned the extent of pollution over other living things. Keywords: cognitive perception, drawing technique, environmental pollution, pre-service science teacher, word association test.
Implementation of Green Campus-Based Curriculum Model at Islamic Universities in Indonesia

This study is aimed to investigate the implementation of green campus-based curriculum model at Islamic universities in Indonesia. In depth interview was conducted to the top leader of universities in order to confirm the application of green campus-based curriculum especially on vision and mission. A set of interviews was also questioned to lecturers to obtain important information regarding with the employment of the model of curriculum related to environmental health they used in classrooms. In addition, supporting data about students from lecturers’ information was also occupied to enrich the data. As a result, the researcher found that all Islamic universities observed in this study imply green campus or environmental aspect points in university’s vision and mission. Less than 100% of lecturers are able to design learning materials related to environmental health as well as implementing it in classrooms. Less than 60% of students can produce environmental work arts as well as having problem solving skills toward surrounding environment. Above all, hose Islamic universities determine similar goals on green campus-based curriculum model i.e. to preserve the environment and aware of surrounding natural issues. At the end, a few suggestions were suggested to the top manager of the Islamic universities concerning with vital element regarding with lecturers’ competencies in developing environmental health learning design that should be noticed and increased.
