Translating Genetic Data into Actionable Clinical Guidelines: Succinate Dehydrogenase Subunit A Variants of Unknown Significance in Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors

Purpose: Patients who inherit a pathogenic loss-of-function genetic variant involving one of the four succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) subunit genes have up to an 86% chance of developing one or more cancers by the age of 50. If tumors are identified and removed early in these high-risk patients, they have a higher potential for cure. Unfortunately, many alterations identified in these genes are variants of unknown significance (VUS), confounding the identification of high-risk patients. If we could identify misclassified SDH VUS as benign or pathogenic SDH mutations, we could better select patients for cancer screening procedures and remove tumors at earlier stages. Experimental Design: In this study, we combine data from clinical observations, a functional yeast model, and a computational model to determine the pathogenicity of 22 SDHA VUS. We gathered SDHA VUS from two primary sources: The OHSU Knight Diagnostics Laboratory 37 and the literature. We used a yeast model to identify the functional effect of a VUS on mitochondrial function with a variety of biochemical assays. The computational model was used to visualize variants’ effect on protein structure. Results: We were able to conclude functional effects of variants using our three-prong approach to understanding VUS. We determined that 16 (73%) of the alterations are pathogenic, causing loss of SDH function, and six (27%) have no effect upon SDH function. Conclusions: We report the reclassification of the majority of the VUS tested as pathogenic, and highlight the need for more thorough functional assessment of inherited SDH variants. Translational relevance Molecular testing plays an important role in the clinical management of GIST, including decision making about the most appropriate medical or surgical therapy. As the routine use of multi-gene sequencing panels has expanded, there has also been an increase in reported variants of unknown significance (VUS) of the SDHA gene. In many cases, these SDHA VUS are present in the germline and are therefore potentially heritable by other family members. In order to understand the functional consequences of these variants, we combined clinical observations, data from a functional yeast model, and computational modeling to classify these SDHA VUS as having no effect or causing loss of function. These results will be helpful for appropriate genetic counseling of individuals

INTRODUCTION The frequency of tourism visits due to the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic has gradually risen on an annual basis. The number of tourists visiting a destination continues to increase as a result of ease of access and enhanced tourism infrastructure facilities in different regions and countries. The increase of foreign tourists entering Indonesia is likely to improve as well (Figure 1). This is partially due to the government's focus on promoting the tourism Jurnal Manajemen Bisnis Vol. 7, No. 2 (2020) September, Hal. 61-70 e-ISSN: 2621-1971|p-ISSN: 2088-7086
EFFECTS OF TYPES OF (ORGANIC AND INORGANIC) FERTILIZER AND QUANTITIES ON THE EARLY GROWTH OF ALBIZIA ZYGIA SEEDLINGS

Production of healthy seedlings within good time frame is of important in silviculture and forestry in general. This study investigated effect of type of fertilizers (organic manure and NPK (15:15:15) and their quantities (10g, 20g, 30g and control) on early growth of Albiziazygia seedlings. Two weeks old seedlings were transplanted into fertilized ploy pots and watered every other day. Growth parameters measured and data was recorded on leaf number, collar diameter, plant height, root to shoot length ratio, root to shoot weight ratio, fresh weight, dry weight, turgid weight and relative water content. Experiment was subjected to 2*4 factorial in complete randomized design (CRD) and Least Significant Difference (LSD) was used to compare significant means. The Analysis of variance results showed that fertilizers types and quantities had significant effect (p<0.05) on some of the parameters. Organic manure significantly increased (p<0.05) all parameters except length ratio and relative water content of the seedlings. The 10g showed significant effect on Leaf number (14.70), Plant height, root weight, shoot weight, fresh weight and turgid weight were significant with 20g of fertilizer while 30g had effect on collar diameter, shoot length and dry weight of the seedlings. Root length and dry weight were significantly higher (p<0.05) to the interaction of 20g of organic manure. Soil amendment with 20g of organic manure had the most significant effect on most of the growth parameters of the seedlings and should be encouraged for the purpose of afforestation programs .
Effects of fire frequency on savanna butterfly diversity and composition: A preliminary study

Fire is a frequent and widespread disturbance in many biomes (Pausas & Keeley 2009) and shapes landscapes by modifying vegetation structure and composition (Bond & Keeley 2005). The recent increase in large uncontrolled fire incidences (e.g. in the Western-Mediterranean basin; Pausas & Fernández-Muñoz 2012; and in the North American boreal region; Kasischke & Turetsky 2006) and predictions indicating that the frequency of high-intensity fires will increase in the future as a result of climate change (Pechony & Shindell 2010) have triggered growing concerns about the impacts of changes in long-term fire regimes. Fire management has become increasingly important as both human population densities and pressure to manage fuels for asset protection increase (Gill & Stephens 2009). In parallel, fire has also become one of the primary tools for biodiversity conservation (Andersen et al. 1998; Parr & Chown 2003). Yet, numerous knowledge gaps are still currently impeding informed decision-making in fire management (Driscoll et al. 2010).
What plant is that? Tests of automated image recognition apps for plant identification on plants from the British flora

Abstract There has been a recent explosion in development of image recognition technology and its application to automated plant identification, so it is timely to consider its potential for field botany. Nine free apps or websites for automated plant identification and suitable for use on mobile phones or tablet computers in the field were tested on a disparate set of 38 images of plants or parts of plants chosen from the higher plant flora of Britain and Ireland. There were large differences in performance with the best apps identifying >50 % of samples tested to genus or better. Although the accuracy is good for some of the top-rated apps, for any quantitative biodiversity study or for ecological surveys, there remains a need for validation by experts or against conventional floras. Nevertheless, the better-performing apps should be of great value to beginners and amateurs and may usefully stimulate interest in plant identification and nature. Potential uses of automated image recognition plant identification apps are discussed and recommendations made for their future use.
Flight to Safety: How Economic Downturns Affect Talent Flows to Startups

This paper investigates how economic downturns affect the flow of human capital to startups. Using proprietary data from AngelList Talent, we study how individuals’ online job searches and applications changed during the emergence of the COVID-19 crisis. We find that job seekers shifted their searches toward larger firms and away from early-stage ventures, even within the same individual over time. Simultaneously, job seekers broadened their other search parameters, considering lower salaries and a wider variety of job types, roles, markets, and locations. Relative to larger firms, early-stage ventures experienced a decline in the number of applications per job posting, a decline driven by higher quality and more experienced job seekers. This led to a deterioration in the quality of the human capital pool available to early-stage ventures during the downturn. These declines hold within a firm as well as within a job posting over time. Our findings uncover a flight to safety channel in the labor market, which may amplify the pro-cyclical nature of entrepreneurial activities.
The Effect of Triangular Cavity Shape on the Hybrid Microchannel Heat Sink Performance

Rapid development in the electronic industry witnesses many tremendous advanced technologies which work with high power density. As a result, an advanced cooling technique, namely, microchannel heat sink (MCHS) is required to fulfil the current cooling demand due to unpredicted increment of power density in a high-density microchip. A microchannel heat sink performance can be enhanced by improving the working fluid properties and or improving the design of cooling passage that contributes to the augmentation of heat transfer rate. In this paper, the optimization of hydrothermal performance was conducted by studying the effect of triangular cavity pitch location (Cavity 1, CV1: 60 µm; Cavity 2, CV2: 100 µm; Cavity 3, CV3: 140 µm) on fluid flow and heat transfer characteristic in the hybrid microchannel heat sink (Triangular cavity with rectangular rib microchannel heat sink, TC-RR MCHS). The result revealed that the TC-RR MCHS with the triangular cavity pitch location of 140 µm (CV3) showed superior performance over other pitch locations (CV1 and CV2) for all the Reynolds number (Re number). The optimum Performance Factor, , achieved by CV3 pitch location was 1.76 at Re number of 350. It indicates that the proposed design with CV3 is suitable for the technology that requires less pumping power consumption
A Remote Sensing Technique to Upscale Methane Emission Flux in a Subtropical Peatland

Quantification of methane (CH4) gas emission from peat is critical to understand CH4 budget from natural wetlands under a climate warming scenario. Previous studies have focused on prediction and mapping of CH4 emission flux using process‐based models, while application of statistical‐empirical models for upscaling spatially sparse in situ measurements is scarce. In this study, we developed an empirical remote sensing upscaling approach to estimate CH4 emission flux in the Everglades using limited in situ point‐based CH4 emission flux measurements and Landsat data during 2013–2018. We spatially and temporally linked in situ data with Landsat surface reflectance based on temporally composite data sets and developed an object‐based machine learning framework to model and map CH4 emission flux. An ensemble analysis of two machine learning models, k‐Nearest Neighbor (k‐NN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM), shows that the upscaling approach is promising for predicting CH4 emission flux with a R2 of 0.65 and 0.87 based on a fivefold cross‐validation for a dry season and wet season estimation, respectively. We generated emission flux map products that successfully revealed the spatial and temporal heterogeneity of CH4 emission within the dominant freshwater marsh ecosystem in the Everglades. We conclude that Landsat is promising for upscaling and monitoring CH4 emission flux and reducing the uncertainty in emission estimates from wetlands.
Effect of paddy straw plus non-forage fibre sources based complete feeds containing different levels of neutral detergent fibre on digestibility coefficients of nutrients in lactating dairy cows#

A study of six months duration was conducted to assess the effect of paddy straw based complete rations containing different levels of NDF on digestibility coefficients of nutrients in lactating dairy cows, in two phases, viz., early and mid lactation. Three isonitrogenous and isocaloric complete rations, T1, T2 and T3 with 25, 30 and 35 per cent NDF, respectively were formulated as per ICAR (1998). Paddy straw was the sole source of roughage NDF, with the rest of NDF being met from non-forage sources, in all the three rations. Eighteen dairy cows yielding approximately 10 kg of milk per day were divided into three groups of six each, and allotted to the three experimental rations. There was no significant difference (P>0.05) in digestibility coefficients of nutrients such as dry matter, organic matter, crude protein, crude fibre, ether extract, nitrogen free extract, NDF and energy, among the dietary treatments, in both phases I and II. However, the digestibility coefficient of acid detergent fibre was significantly higher (P 0.05), in both the phases. A thorough evaluation of the results obtained in the present study, reveal that the animals in all the three dietary treatments performed well, with the complete rations T3 with 35 per cent NDF and T2 with 30 per cent NDF showing better performance than T1 with 25 per cent NDF. Between T2 and T3 which were more or less comparable, the cows fed on the diet T3 had a higher digestibility for NDF, ADF and crude fibre, indicating that T3 was better than T2. These results suggest that complete rations with 25 to 35 per cent NDF, containing paddy straw as the sole source of roughage NDF, with the rest of NDF being met from non-forage sources, can be recommended for use among early and mid lactation dairy cows, with 35 per cent being the ideal NDF level.
Evaluation of hybrid rye on growth performance, carcass traits, and efficiency of net energy utilization in finishing steers

Abstract Crossbred beef steers with a high percentage of Angus ancestry [n = 240, initial shrunk body weight (BW), 404 ± 18.5 kg] were used in a 117-d feedlot experiment to evaluate the effect of hybrid rye (Rye; KWS Cereals USA, LLC, Champaign, IL) as a replacement for dry-rolled corn (DRC) on growth performance, carcass traits, and comparative net energy (NE) value in diets fed to finishing steers. Rye from a single hybrid (KWS Bono) with an ergot alkaloid concentration of 392 ppb was processed with a roller mill to a processing index (PI) of 78.8 ± 2.29. Four treatments were used in a completely randomized design (n = 6 pens/treatment; 10 steers/pen), where DRC (PI = 86.9 ± 4.19) was replaced by varying proportions of Rye [DRC:Rye, dry matter (DM) basis (60:0), (40:20), (20:40), and (0:60)]. Liver abscess scores and carcass characteristics were collected at the abattoir. Carcass-adjusted performance was calculated from hot carcass weight (HCW)/0.625. Performance-adjusted NE was calculated using carcass-adjusted average daily gain (ADG), DM intake (DMI), and mean equivalent shrunk BW with the comparative NE values for rye calculated using the replacement technique. Data were analyzed using the GLIMMIX procedure of SAS 9.4 (SAS Inst. Inc., Cary, NC) with pen as the experimental unit. Treatment effects were tested using linear and quadratic contrasts, as well as between diets with and without Rye. Replacing DRC with Rye linearly decreased (P ≤ 0.01) carcass-adjusted final BW, ADG, DMI, and gain:feed (G:F). Feeding rye linearly decreased HCW and longissimus muscle area (P ≤ 0.04). Distributions of liver scores and USDA grades for quality and yield were unaffected by treatment (P ≥ 0.09). Estimated replacement NE for maintenance (NEm) and gain (NEg) values for rye, when included at 60% of diet DM, were 1.90 and 1.25 Mcal/kg, respectively. Rye can be a suitable feed ingredient in finishing diets for feedlot steers. Estimated replacement values of Rye when fed at 60% of diet DM closely agreed with current tabular standards but, when included at 20% of diet DM, estimated NEm and NEg values of Rye were increased 9.5% and 12.8%, respectively. Net energy value of Rye for gain is approximately 84% compared to DRC; thus, the complete replacement of DRC with Rye depressed DMI, ADG, G:F, and carcass weight.
Replication and Extension of Alicke (1985) Better-Than-Average Effect for Desirable and Controllable Traits

People tend to regard themselves as better than average. We conducted a replication and extension of Alicke’s classic study on trait dimensions in evaluations of self versus others with U.S. American Mechanical Turk workers in two waves (total N = 1,573; 149 total traits). We successfully replicated the trait desirability effect, such that participants rated more desirable traits as being more descriptive of themselves than of others (original: η p 2 = .78, 95% confidence interval [CI] [.73, .81]; replication: sr 2 = .54, 95% CI [.43, .65]). The effect of desirability was stronger for more controllable traits (effect of Desirability × Controllability interaction on self–other-ratings difference; original: η p 2 = .21, 95% CI [.12, .28]; replication: sr 2 = .07, 95% CI [.02, .12]). In an extension, we found that desirable traits were rated as more common for others, but not for the self. Thirty-five years later, the better-than-average effect appears to remain robust.

Hybrid and alternate modes of governance: implications for relational embeddedness in the three-tier supply chains

Background: Leveraging the relational embeddedness perspective, we empirically investigate whether hybrid governance (perceived as a combination of market and hierarchy), and the alternate modes of governance (nonmarket and non-hierarchal) are capable of providing the social layer to governance within the three-tier supply chain framework. Methods: The study covers two research stages. In the first stage, the variables that demonstrate two modes of formal governance (both market and hierarchy) are reduced through the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to highlight the main underlying multi-item factors. In the second stage of our research, the cluster analysis is conducted to compare different clusters in terms of relational embeddedness. As our research is exploratory in nature, we used non-parametric tests to evaluate the significance of results. Results: The results evidence that that along with the pure mechanisms of supply chain governance (market and hierarchy), one may also identify both the hybrid and alternate modes. It corresponds to four clusters embracing three-tier supply chains with different governance mechanisms: the alternate mode, market, hybrid and hierarchy. Likewise, the study shows that both market and hybrid governance demonstrate the strongest relational embeddedness of both dyads. On the other hand, though the alternate mode of governance, perceived as neither market nor hierarchy, demonstrates stronger relational embeddedness than pure hierarchy, nevertheless the strength of its relational embeddedness is significantly lower as compared to market governance. Conclusions: The study shows that it is difficult to reveal clearly delineated tendencies regarding both the hybrid and alternate modes of governance in terms of relational embeddedness. In fact, the hybrid mode of governance should be rather linked to market as they both are very similar, while the alternate mode of governance demonstrates a moderate strength of relational embeddedness. On the other hand, the lowest strength of relational embeddedness is still reported by hierarchy.
