Prevalence and correlates of depression, anxiety, and stress among high school students in a block of Hooghly district, West Bengal: Across-sectional study

BACKGROUND: Adolescent mental health is a concern. A high magnitude of deranged mental health conditions among adolescents is prevailing, which often gets extended into adulthood too. Hence, assessment of mental health morbidities like depression, anxiety, and stress is crucial to address them. This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of depression, anxiety, and stress among school-going adolescents studying in classes IX–XII and find out its correlates among the subjects. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This cross-sectional study was conducted among 812 adolescents studying in classes IX–XII in four randomly selected schools of Haripal block of Hooghly district, West Bengal, in 2022. A complete enumeration of students in each class of the selected schools was done. Data were collected by using a pretested schedule that included standardized depression, anxiety, and stress scale (DASS-21). Descriptive statistics and a Chi-square test were applied. Regression analysis was doneto determine associations and compute the adjusted odds ratio. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 23. RESULTS: Overall prevalence of depression, anxiety, and stress were found to be 52.3%, 47.4%, and 33.7% respectively. Subscale scores shows 16.1% and 10.8% suffered from extremely severe depression and anxiety, respectively. It was noted that these were more common among female students, the late adolescent age group (16–19 years), students having social problems in the family, and those reporting using substances. CONCLUSION: The prevalence of depression, anxiety, and stress being high among school students indicates a significant burden of mental health disease. Effective strategies to alleviate the adverse mental health, along with early identification of disease, can help in along way.
Report from the Coastal Areas of Ariake Sound, Kumamoto Prefecture; The Main Fisheries Ground for the Clam Ruditapes philippinarum Populations in Japan.

There are many tidal flats in coastal areas of Ariake Sound, where a fishery for the clam Ruditapes philippinarum is well developed. However, a serious reduction in the clam catch has occurred in recent years, especially, in the coastal areas of Kumamoto, where the annual catch of 65,732 tin 1977 has decreased to 2,000 t or less. Various causes for this decrease have been suggested, including environmental deterioration, regional topography, food habit of local people and predation. The clam populations in Kumamoto have two reproductive peaks, from spring to early summer and in autumn. However, in recent years, the populations have been maintained by recruits from the earlier of these seasonal peaks. Recently, the clam has come to be distributed higher in the tidal flats. In Kumamoto, this species of clam can reach commercial size within 1 year after settlement, and almost all individuals are fished during the period from spring to autumn of the next year. Predation, especially by the eagle rays, is another serious problem for maintenance of the clam population.
The Accident Externality from Trucking

The presence of a heavy truck on the road can impose an externality if accidents occur that would not have otherwise. We find each additional truck on the road increases the risk of a truck accident – but also, at an even higher rate, the risk of a car-on-car collision. Our estimates imply two percent of all car-on-car collisions can be attributed to trucks on the road. This negative externality falls on all road users through higher car insurance premiums: one truck, driving for a year in the same zip code, increases the insurance premium of each new enrollee by $0.48/year.
Petrology and mineralogy of wollastonite- and melilite-bearing paralavas from the Central Apennines, Italy

Abstract Small outcrops of wollastonite- and melilite-bearing pyrometamorphic rocks (paralavas) are found along the Apennine chain in Central Italy at the localities of Colle Fabbri and Ricetto. These rocks have coarse- to fine-grained crystalline, spotted, and glassy textures. The Colle Fabbri rocks have abundant and ubiquitous wollastonite, with plagioclase ± clinopyroxene. Melilite is found only in the most Ca-rich and silica-poor samples. Garnet, perovskite, quartz, leucite, silica-rich glassy mesostasis, and ocelli filled by calcite are present locally. The Ricetto rock is made up of wollastonite and melilite with minor clinopyroxene set in a glassy matrix with a few crystals of restitic quartz. These rocks have variable contents of SiO2 (43 to 64 wt%) and CaO (37 to 3.7 wt%). The latter decreases with increasing MgO, Al2O3, Fe2O3tot, TiO2, K2O, SiO2, and most trace elements, excluding Sr. Peculiar parageneses (e.g., coexisting melilite and anorthite in the most silica-poor samples, abundance of wollastonite), mineral compositions (gehlenite-rich melilite; Al-, Ti-, and Fe3+-rich clinopyroxene; Al-, Ti-rich, but Fe-poor garnet), and major- and trace-element geochemistry suggest that the Colle Fabbri and Ricetto rocks are not ultimately mantle-derived, but are the result of melting, devolatilization, and recrystallization of marly sediments (50-60 to 5-10% calcite, with clay minerals ± quartz), likely due to coal fires. The 87Sr/86Sr and 143Nd/144Nd range from 0.70772 to 0.71190 and from 0.51223 to 0.51219, respectively, again suggesting sedimentary protoliths of a mixed nature. Substantial chemical and isotopic differences between these samples and those from the Roman Magmatic Province are highlighted
Research on the Change Trend of Crop Water Requirement in the Middle Reaches of Heihe River Basin in the Recent 43 Years

The Heihe River Basin, located in the arid area of northwestern China, is the second largest Inland River Basin. In recent years, with the increase of the agricultural water in the middle reaches of the Heihe River Basin, the conflicts between agricultural water and ecological water as well as water use in the middle and lower reaches are becoming more and more severe. Because irrigation water is the main aspect of agricultural water use, the situation of water supply and demand and the tendency of water resources used by irrigation have been drawing more and more attentions. Water requirement of crops is an important condition for irrigation scheduling, water resources planning and future decision-making. Understanding the water demand and consumption of staple crops comprehensively has very important significance for the development of water-saving agriculture, the intensive management of water resources, the improvement of water use efficiency and the simulation and prediction of crop yield. In this paper, according to the weather data of 7 meteorological stations in the middle reaches of Heihe River Basin, the water requirement of main crops in different growth stages were calculated by using FAO Penman-Monteith model and crop coefficient. Besides, the variation characteristics and the major climate influence factors of the water requirement of main crops were analyzed respectively by using the Mann-Kendall trend and correlation analysis method. Then, based on the above analysis, the future trends of crop water requirement were forecast by the method of rescaled range analysis. The results show that the ET c of both spring wheat and maize exhibit fluctuating decrease trend in the middle reaches of Heihe River Basin with ET c of spring wheat declines at a rate of about 6mm/ 10a and maize at a rate of about 8mm/10a. As to the stages of development, the ET c of spring wheat exhibit a slightly increasing trend at crop development stage and late stage while the ET c of maize exhibit a decreasing trend at all stages, among which crop development stage and mid-season stage show especially significant decrease. As to the stations, the ET c of Ganzhou and Minle stations exhibit a slightly increasing trend while other stations exhibit a significant decreasing trend. The affecting factors of the ET c are relative humidity, sunshine hours and wind speed. The Hurst indices of the ET c of the spring wheat and maize are all bigger than 0.5 for all the stations, the fractal dimensions, meanwhile, are all less than 1.5, which indicate that ET c would keep the same trend with the past in a period of time in the future.
Relationship between morphometric attributes and body weight of juvenile turbots Scophthalmus maximus

To study the effect of morphometric attributes on body weight of the turbot Scophthalmus maximus,morphometric measurement was taken on 1120 3-month-old turbots sampled in a local company in Yantai,Shandong of China.The attributes used in this study include body length,total length,body depth,head length,length between snout tip and frontal of gill cleft,tail handle length,tail handle height,body width,and body weight.A correlation coefficient matrix was constructed,in which the body weight was used as the dependent variable and other attributes as independent variables for path analysis.The path coefficients(P_i),determination coefficients(d_i and d_ ij),and correlation index(R2) were calculated,and major morphometric attributes determined.The results showed that all the correlation coefficient between each independent variable and dependent variable(body weight) were significantly different(P0.01). The total length gave a predominant direct effect(0.720) and determinacy on the body weight,it is the key effective factor,whereas body depth and body width exhibited a slight direct effect(0.211,0.094) and significant indirect effect(0.5558,0.4342) on the body weight via total length.The high value of multiple correlation index R2 at 0.911 between morphometric attributes and body weight suggests that the selected attributes are practical.The multiple regression equation relating the body weight was established as y=-6.216+1. 294x_1+0. 518x_2+1. 293x_3,where y is body weight,x_1,x_2,x_3 is the total length,body depth,and body width,respectively.

Linear robust adaptive model predictive control: Computational complexity and conservatism

In this paper, we present a robust adaptive model predictive control (MPC) scheme for linear systems subject to parametric uncertainty and additive disturbances. The proposed approach provides a computationally efficient formulation with theoretical guarantees (constraint satisfaction and stability), while allowing for reduced conservatism and improved performance due to online parameter adaptation. A moving window parameter set identification is used to compute a fixed complexity parameter set based on past data. Robust constraint satisfaction is achieved by using a computationally efficient tube based robust MPC method. The predicted cost function is based on a least mean squares point estimate, which ensures finite-gain ℒ2 stability of the closed loop. The overall algorithm has a fixed (user specified) computational complexity. We illustrate the applicability of the approach and the trade-off between conservatism and computational complexity using a numerical example.
The Gaia-ESO Survey: the Galactic thick to thin disc transition

Aims. The nature of the thick disc and its relation to the thin disc is presently an important subject of debate. In fact, the structural and chemo-dynamical transition between disc populations can be used as a test of the proposed models of Galactic disc formation and evolution. Methods. We used the atmospheric parameters, [alpha/Fe] abundances, and radial velocities, which were determined from the Gaia-ESO Survey GIRAFFE spectra of FGK-type stars (first nine months of observations) to provide a chemo-kinematical characterisation of the disc stellar populations. We focussed on a subsample of 1016 stars with high-quality parameters, covering the volume vertical bar Z vertical bar < 4.5 kpc and R in the range 2-13 kpc. Results. We have identified a thin to thick disc separation in the [alpha/Fe] vs. [M/H] plane, thanks to the presence of a low-density region in the number density distribution. The thick disc stars seem to lie in progressively thinner layers above the Galactic plane, as metallicity increases and [alpha/Fe] decreases. In contrast, the thin disc population presents a constant value of the mean distance to the Galactic plane at all metallicities. In addition, our data confirm the already known correlations between V-phi and [M/H] for the two discs. For the thick disc sequence, a study of the possible contamination by thin disc stars suggests a gradient up to 64 +/- 9 km s(-1) dex(-1). The distributions of azimuthal velocity, vertical velocity, and orbital parameters are also analysed for the chemically separated samples. Concerning the gradients with galactocentric radius, we find, for the thin disc, a flat behaviour of the azimuthal velocity, a metallicity gradient equal to -0.058 +/- 0.008 dex kpc(-1) and a very small positive [alpha/Fe] gradient. For the thick disc, flat gradients in [M/H] and [alpha/Fe] are derived. Conclusions. Our chemo-kinematical analysis suggests a picture where the thick disc seems to have experienced a settling process, during which its rotation increased progressively and, possibly, the azimuthal velocity dispersion decreased. At [M/H] approximate to -0.25 dex and [alpha/Fe] approximate to 0.1 dex, the mean characteristics of the thick disc in vertical distance to the Galactic plane, rotation, rotational dispersion, and stellar orbits' eccentricity agree with that of the thin disc stars of the same metallicity, suggesting a possible connection between these two populations at a certain epoch of the disc evolution. Finally, the results presented here, based only on the first months of the Gaia-ESO Survey observations, confirm how crucial large high-resolution spectroscopic surveys outside the solar neighbourhood are today for our understanding of the Milky Way history.
The Gaia-ESO Survey: Structural and dynamical properties of the young cluster Chamaeleon i

The young (~2 Myr) cluster Chamaeleon I is one of the closest laboratories to study the early stages of star cluster dynamics in a low-density environment. We studied its structural and kinematical properties combining parameters from the high-resolution spectroscopic survey Gaia-ESO with data from the literature. Our main result is the evidence of a large discrepancy between the velocity dispersion (sigma = 1.14 \pm 0.35 km s^{-1}) of the stellar population and the dispersion of the pre-stellar cores (~0.3 km s^{-1}) derived from submillimeter observations. The origin of this discrepancy, which has been observed in other young star clusters is not clear. It may be due to either the effect of the magnetic field on the protostars and the filaments, or to the dynamical evolution of stars driven by two-body interactions. Furthermore, the analysis of the kinematic properties of the stellar population put in evidence a significant velocity shift (~1 km s^{-1}) between the two sub-clusters located around the North and South main clouds. This result further supports a scenario, where clusters form from the evolution of multiple substructures rather than from a monolithic collapse. Using three independent spectroscopic indicators (the gravity indicator $\gamma$, the equivalent width of the Li line, and the H_alpha 10\% width), we performed a new membership selection. We found six new cluster members located in the outer region of the cluster. Starting from the positions and masses of the cluster members, we derived the level of substructure Q, the surface density \Sigma and the level of mass segregation $\Lambda_{MSR}$ of the cluster. The comparison between these structural properties and the results of N-body simulations suggests that the cluster formed in a low density environment, in virial equilibrium or supervirial, and highly substructured.
The Gaia-ESO Survey: New constraints on the Galactic disc velocity dispersion and its chemical dependencies

Context. Understanding the history and the evolution of the Milky Way is one of the main goals of modern astrophysics. In particular, the formation of the Galactic disc is a key problem of Galactic archaeology. Aims. We study the velocity dispersion behaviour of Galactic disc stars as a function of the [Mg/Fe] ratio, which for small metallicity bins can be used as a proxy of relative age. This key relation is essential to constrain the formation mechanisms of the disc stellar populations as well as the cooling and settling processes. Methods. We used the recommended parameters and chemical abundances of 7800 FGK Milky Way field stars from the second internal data release of the Gaia-ESO spectroscopic Survey. These stars were observed with the GIRAFFE spectrograph (HR10 and HR21 setups), and cover a large spatial volume in the intervals 6 +0.20 dex for the radial component. First, the velocity dispersion increases with [Mg/Fe] at all [Fe/H] ratios for the thin-disc stars, and then it decreases for the thick-disc population at the highest [Mg/Fe] abundances Similar trends are observed for several bins of [Mg/Fe] within the errors for the azimuthal velocity dispersion, while a continuous increase with [Mg/Fe] is observed for the vertical velocity dispersion. The velocity dispersion decrease agrees with previous measurements of the RAVE survey, although it is observed here for a greater metallicity interval and a larger spatial volume. Conclusions. Thanks to the Gaia-ESO Survey data, we confirm the existence of [Mg/Fe]-rich thick-disc stars with cool kinematics in the generally turbulent context of the primitive Galactic disc. This is discussed in the framework of the different disc formation and evolution scenarios.
The Gaia-ESO Survey : radial metallicity gradients and age-metallicity relation of stars in the Milky Way disk

We study the relationship between age, metallicity, and alpha-enhancement of FGK stars in the Galactic disk. The results are based upon the analysis of high-resolution UVES spectra from the Gaia-ESO large stellar survey. We explore the limitations of the observed dataset, i.e. the accuracy of stellar parameters and the selection effects that are caused by the photometric target preselection. We find that the colour and magnitude cuts in the survey suppress old metal-rich stars and young metal-poor stars. This suppression may be as high as 97% in some regions of the age-metallicity relationship. The dataset consists of 144 stars with a wide range of ages from 0.5 Gyr to 13.5 Gyr, Galactocentric distances from 6 kpc to 9.5 kpc, and vertical distances from the plane 0 9 Gyr is not as small as advocated by some other studies. In agreement with earlier work, we find that radial abundance gradients change as a function of vertical distance from the plane. The [Mg/Fe] gradient steepens and becomes negative. In addition, we show that the inner disk is not only more alpha-rich compared to the outer disk, but also older, as traced independently by the ages and Mg abundances of stars.
FORAMINIFERAL FAUNA AND BIOTOPES OF A BARRIER ESTUARY SYSTEM: ST GEORGES BASIN, NEW SOUTH WALES, AUSTRALIA

A 66-sample study of estuarine foraminifera within St Georges Basin identified 30 species from three biotopes that are divided almost equally in diversity between calcareous and agglutinated forms. The latter, however, are twice as abundant as the former, and the species Ammobaculites exiguus, Portatrochammina sorosa, Rhumblerella subconica , and Ammonia aoteana represent 78% of the fauna. The main driver of biotope distribution is water depth or factors related to it. Faunal composition and biotope distribution are similar to those found in other estuaries in the region, suggesting the possibility of a “standard fauna” for Australian estuaries with limited connections to the open ocean.
Food-Dependent Exercise-Induced Anaphylaxis: A Distinct Form of Food Allergy—An Updated Review of Diagnostic Approaches and Treatments

Food-dependent exercise-induced allergic reactions (FDEIA) represent a distinct clinical phenomenon where symptoms arise during exercise following the consumption of specific trigger foods, with the most severe manifestation being anaphylaxis—a condition distinct from typical exercise-induced or food-induced anaphylaxis. In FDEIA, patients can either exercise or tolerate specific foods separately without experiencing any allergic reactions. Diagnosis relies on patient history and provocation testing, requiring rigorous implementation within a supervised hospital environment. Positive symptoms and clinical signs during testing confirm FDEIA, while negative outcomes do not preclude its presence. Exercise stands as the primary trigger, followed by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and alcohol. The utilization of various protocols for food cofactor challenges to confirm FDEIA yields differing diagnostic outcomes. We highlight the updated concept of food cofactor challenges, incorporating protocols reported in the literature, and summarize current recommendations and comprehensive management approaches for FDEIA patients.
Caracterización del proceso administrativo y de mercado en los sistemas ovinos del trópico alto colombiano

Este articulo es el resultado de una encuesta experta a gran escala basada en entrevistas a productores de 66 granjas ovinas de tropico alto (TA) en Colombia. El objetivo fue proveer una descripcion del proceso administrativo y de mercado en los sistemas ovinos de TA. Los sistemas fueron estratificados en funcion del objetivo de produccion; las medias, las desviaciones estandar y las frecuencias fueron calculadas para las variables mas informativas mediante el programa SAS V.9. 1. Las granjas se distribuyen en los sistemas carne y lana TA (59 %), genetica y carne TA (24 %) y carne TA (17 %). Los procesos organizacionales en los sistemas ovinos de TA analizados han tenido un bajo desarrollo. A menor grado de especializacion, se utilizan con menor frecuencia herramientas de planeacion estrategica y sistemas de identificacion y registro de animales. El bajo control administrativo de los sistemas ovinos TA demuestra la necesidad de implementar programas de asistencia tecnica, investigacion y extension, donde los productores desarrollen habilidades para la proyeccion de indicadores de gestion y mercado. Los factores criticos de comercializacion de productos de origen ovino en Colombia requieren ser intervenidos a traves de la construccion de cadenas de valor que estimulen el crecimiento de la demanda, el desarrollo de politicas y la regulacion de mercado, el control de precios y la calidad de los productos. La participacion activa de los productores por medio de productos de valor agregado es fundamental ya que asegura el incremento de los ingresos y el empleo familiar.
