The evolutionary rate of leaf osmotic strength drives diversification of Primulina species in karst regions

Leaf water storage capacity and osmotic strength are important traits enabling species to adapt to environments that are often moisture limited. However, whether these drought tolerance traits are correlated with the species diversification rate (DR) of plant lineages is yet to be determined. In this study, we selected a species‐rich genus (Primulina) of plants widely distributed in karst regions in which species frequently experience variable periods of drought. We measured water storage capacity‐related traits (including leaf thickness and water content per mass) and saturated osmotic strength in the leaves of 58 Primulina species growing in a common garden. Subsequently, using phylogenetic methods, we examined the relationships between the rate of species diversification and the drought tolerance traits and between the species DR and evolutionary rates of these traits. We found that neither water storage capacity nor saturated osmotic strength showed significant relationships with the rate of species diversification. However, the evolutionary rate of saturated osmotic strength showed a significant correlation with the species DR, although no comparable significant relationship was detected regarding the evolutionary rate of water storage capacity. Our study indicates that the diversification among Primulina species has typically been accompanied by an extensive divergence of leaf osmotic strength but not a divergence in leaf water storage capacity. These findings will enhance our current understanding of how drought tolerance influences the diversification of plant species in karst regions.
Application of New Sources of Bioactive Substances (Perilla frutescens L. and Tagetes erecta L.) in the Chosen Cookies Production

Today, one of the most important challenges of ensuring the society’s health is the prevention of civilization diseases. Most of them are associated with an imbalance between antioxidants and free radicals in the human body. Due to the need to increase the intake of antioxidants, opportunities are being studied to increase their consumption. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of plant extracts of marigold (Tagetes erecta spp.) (MEx) and perilla (Perilla frutescens L.) (PEx) on selected qualitative properties of muffins. We studied the effects of the extracts in amounts of 1% (1), 3% (3), and 5% (5) on selected muffin characteristics, i.e., crust and crumb color, cooking yield, specific volume, and water activity, and changes in textural properties as well as sensory acceptance analysis. The level of crust lightness (L*) of muffins was lower than that of the control sample only for the samples with the PEx. For the crumb, the muffins with MEx and PEx were darker than the control sample. Fortification of muffins resulted in a concentration-dependent increase in antioxidant capacity. The PEx_3 and PEx_5 samples were rated highest in the sensory acceptance evaluation. The other quality attributes were similar to the control sample, indicating the validity of introducing extracts in the muffin recipe.

Effects of Genistein on Common Kidney Diseases

Genistein is a naturally occurring phytoestrogen (soy or soybean products) that is classified as an isoflavone, and its structure is similar to that of endogenous estrogens; therefore, genistein can exert an estrogen-like effect via estrogen receptors. Additionally, genistein is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, which enables it to block abnormal cell growth and proliferation signals through the inhibition of tyrosine kinase. Genistein is also an angiogenesis inhibitor and an antioxidant. Genistein has effects on kidney cells, some of the kidney’s physiological functions, and a variety of kidney diseases. First, genistein exerts a protective effect on normal cells by reducing the inflammatory response, inhibiting apoptosis, inhibiting oxidative stress, inhibiting remodeling, etc., but after cell injury, the protective effect of genistein decreases or even has the opposite effect. Second, genistein can regulate renin intake to maintain blood pressure balance, regulate calcium uptake to regulate Ca2+ and Pi balances, and reduce vasodilation to promote diuresis. Third, genistein has beneficial effects on a variety of kidney diseases (including acute kidney disease, kidney cancer, and different chronic kidney diseases), such as reducing symptoms, delaying disease progression, and improving prognosis. Therefore, this paper reviews animal and human studies on the protective effects of genistein on the kidney in vivo and in vitro to provide a reference for clinical research in the future.
Research on Satisfaction of Driverless Function Based on the Artificial Intelligence Algorithm

With the popularization of driverless technology, more and more vehicles have begun to apply this technology. Under these circumstances, user satisfaction with driverless function begins to have an increasing impact on car sales. This paper adopts the KANO model, a two-dimensional model, to analyze users’ attitudes toward driverless functions. It is found that users have a high dependence on functions such as forward collision warning, autonomous emergency braking, and stated-speed sign recognition. Therefore, relevant enterprises should continue to develop these functions. Besides, users have high expectations for functions such as blind spot detection systems and rear cross-traffic alerts. Enterprises can achieve more support from users by optimizing these functions. Functions like lane-keeping assist, lane departure warning, parking distance control, and door open warning systems belong to indifferent attributes of driverless function, which are not cared about by users. There is no need for enterprises to optimize these functions. However, the lane change assist system has been criticized by users and should be improved by corresponding manufacturers.
Effects of Magnetic Fields on Photoionised Pillars and Globules

The effects of initially uniform magnetic fields on the formation and evolution of dense pillars and cometary globules at the boundaries of H II regions are investigated using 3D radiation-magnetohydrodynamics simulations. It is shown, in agreement with previous work, that a strong initial magnetic field is required to significantly alter the non-magnetised dynamics because the energy input from photoionisation is so large that it remains the dominant driver of the dynamics in most situations. Additionally it is found that for weak and medium field strengths an initially perpendicular field is swept into alignment with the pillar during its dynamical evolution, matching magnetic field observations of the `Pillars of Creation' in M16 and also some cometary globules. A strong perpendicular magnetic field remains in its initial configuration and also confines the photoevaporation flow into a bar-shaped dense ionised ribbon which partially shields the ionisation front and would be readily observable in recombination lines. A simple analytic model is presented to explain the properties of this bright linear structure. These results show that magnetic field strengths in star-forming regions can in principle be significantly constrained by the morphology of structures which form at the borders of H II regions.
Late Permian palynomorphs from the West Bokaro Coalfield, Damodar Basin, Jharkhand, India

Palynological studies were carried out for samples collected from the Bokaro River section near Danea area from West Bokaro Coalfield, Damodar Basin. The recovered palynomorphs are characterized by the dominance of monosaccate pollen mainly Densipollenites (D. magnicorpus, D. invisus, D. indicus and D. densus) and subdominance of Faunipollenites spp. –Striatopodocarpites spp. complex. The other stratigraphically significant taxa recorded from this section are Guttulapollenites hannonicus, Crescentipollenites fuscus, Arcuatipollenites (A. pellucidus, A. ovatus and A. damudicus), Alisporites asansolensis, Verticipollenites gibbosus, Striatites rhombicus, Platysaccus densicorpus, Chordasporites sp. , Parasaccites (P. perfectus and P. densicorpus) and Horriditriletes sp. On the basis of the total palynocomposition, the studied section has been dated as late Permian in age. This age correlation also gets support from comparative studies with similar palynoassemblages known from other coalfields of Indian Gondwana basins such as Damodar, Satpura, Son–Mahanadi, Rajmahal and Wardha–Godavari basins. The dominance of Cordaites and subdominance of conifers of Glossopterids suggests that the deposition of the sedimentary sequences took under freshwater environment.

Guanidinates as Alternative Ligands for Organometallic Complexes

For decades, ligands such as phosphanes or cyclopentadienyl ring derivatives have dominated Coordination and Organometallic Chemistry. At the same time, alternative compounds have emerged that could compete either for a more practical and accessible synthesis or for greater control of steric and electronic properties. Guanidines, nitrogen-rich compounds, appear as one such potential alternatives as ligands or proligands. In addition to occurring in a plethora of natural compounds, and thus in compounds of pharmacological use, guanidines allow a wide variety of coordination modes to different metal centers along the periodic table, with their monoanionic chelate derivatives being the most common. In this review, we focused on the organometallic chemistry of guanidinato compounds, discussing selected examples of coordination modes, reactivity and uses in catalysis or materials science. We believe that these amazing ligands offer a new promise in Organometallic Chemistry.
Strong convergence theorems for nonexpansive mappings in banach spaces

In this paper, we prove for a nonexpansive mapping T that under certain conditions the trajectory $t \to G_t(x), t \in [0,1]$, defined by the equation $G_t(x) = (1 - t)x + tTG_t(x)$ strongly converges to a fixed point of T as $t \to 1^{-1}$.
Indonesian Digital Feminist Activism Bridging Global-Local Feminism Discourse: Textual Network Analysis of Jakarta Feminist

The internet and social media have influenced how feminist activists work today. In Indonesia, digital feminist activism was found to have been initiated by young women to deconstruct the general view related to women's empowerment, gender equality, networking, and mobilizing the protest constituents to the street. The opening of networks between countries by the internet has the potential to be the "bridge" for global feminism’s vision to the local agenda of feminist activists. Hence, this study aims to provide a discourse on the textual network of digital activism in the case of Jakarta Feminist. As a result, although the Jakarta Feminists have adopted a form of movement and entered the global network, the existing discourse shows the dominance of local issues and agendas such as gender-based violence, women’s representation, and human rights. Thus, they adapt the feminism concept to the local context. Keywords: Digital Feminist Activism, Textual Network Analysis, Jakarta Feminist

The effect of performance expectancy and behavioral intention on the use of electronic medical record (EMR) in tertier hospital in Indonesia

Health and well-being are the third Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. To accomplish this, Soetomo hospital as the largest referral hospital in the province of East Java is expected to have an Electronic Medical Record (EMR) completeness level of 100 percent by 2024. This study aimed to examine the impact of performance expectation and behavioral intention on hospital EMR technology usage. This was an observational study with a cross sectional research design. From a population of 390 health workers, a sample of 195 was generated using proportional random sampling. Validity and reliability can be determined using SPSS software. Utilizing SEM PLS software, the analysis is evaluated. Results indicate that performance expectation can have a direct effect on technology use EMR (T Statistic = 21,506) and an indirect effect via behavioral intention (T Statistic = 15,038). The relationship between behavioral intention and technology use EMR is direct (T statistic = 5,475). Conclusion: Performance expectations explain 52% of behavioral intention, while behavioral intentions explain 85% of technology use EMR.
Dehydration Stress Memory Genes in Triticum turgidum L. ssp. durum (Desf.)

Exposure to successive stress cycles can result in a variety of memory response patterns in several plant species. We have investigated a group of these patterns at both the transcriptional and physiological memory levels in durum wheat. The data revealed huge discrepancies between investigated durum wheat cultivars, which presumably are all drought tolerant. It was possible to generate a consensus memory response pattern for each cultivar, where Hourani 27 was the most tolerant followed by Balikh 2 and then Omrabi 5. When durum wheat homologs from rice and maize were compared, only 18% gave similar memory response patterns. The data would indicate the presence of potentially divergent memory mechanisms in different plant species and genotypes. Ultimately, a thorough examination is required for each genotype before giving solid memory-based conclusions that can be applied in plant breeding and agricultural management practices.
The Efficacy of Culturally Responsive Pedagogy for Low-Proficiency International Students in Online Teaching and Learning

International students with low academic English proficiency face challenges with reading their course materials and writing assignments. Their challenges are exacerbated during remote learning, as they remain in their home countries, immersed in their home languages, which may be quite distant from academic English. To investigate the effects of culturally responsive pedagogy for international students online, quantitative and qualitative data were collected from a learner-driven, instructor-facilitated (LeD-InF) support program at a large university in southern Ontario. This fully online delivery of the Reading and Writing Excellence (RWE) program was re-envisioned from a long-running co-curricular program that addressed students’ academic English reading, writing, and critical thinking needs. Among eight groups (with the total enrolment of 154) in the Fall 2020 academic term cycle and nine groups (with the total enrolment of 226) in the Winter 2021 academic term cycle of the online RWE program, the intervention groups that were additionally supported with culturally responsive pedagogy had the highest volume of writing output and engagement metrics among all groups. The text data (of student voices and experiences) also reinforces the efficacy of culturally responsive pedagogy in facilitating student experience, constructing identities, promoting learner agency, increasing satisfaction, improving students’ perceptions of learning, and realizing transformative inclusivity.
Soluble Protein Hydrolysate Ameliorates Gastrointestinal Inflammation and Injury in 2,4,6-Trinitrobenzene Sulfonic Acid-Induced Colitis in Mice

Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are chronic, recurring gastrointestinal diseases that severely impair health and quality of life. Although therapeutic options have significantly expanded in recent years, there is no effective therapy for a complete and permanent cure for IBD. Well tolerated dietary interventions to improve gastrointestinal health in IBD would be a welcome advance especially with anticipated favorable tolerability and affordability. Soluble protein hydrolysate (SPH) is produced by the enzymatic hydrolysis of commercial food industry salmon offcuts (consisting of the head, backbone and skin) and contains a multitude of bioactive peptides including those with anti-oxidant properties. This study aimed to investigate whether SPH ameliorates gastrointestinal injury in 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced mouse colitis model. Mice were randomly assigned to four groups: Control (no colitis), Colitis, Colitis/CP (with control peptide treatment), and Colitis/SPH (with SPH treatment). Colitis was induced by cutaneous sensitization with 1% TNBS on day −8 followed by 2.5% TNBS enema challenge on day 0. Control peptides and SPH were provided to the mice in the Colitis/CP or Colitis/SPH group respectively by drinking water at the final concentration of 2% w/v daily from day −10 to day 4. Then, the colon was harvested on day 4 and examined macro- and microscopically. Relevant measures included disease activity index (DAI), colon histology injury, immune cells infiltration, pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines and anti-oxidative gene expression. It was found that SPH treatment decreased the DAI score and colon tissue injury when compared to the colitis-only and CP groups. The protective mechanisms of SPH were associated with reduced infiltration of CD4+ T, CD8+ T and B220+ B lymphocytes but not macrophages, downregulated pro-inflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6), and upregulated anti-inflammatory cytokines (transforming growth factor-β1 and interleukin-10) in the colon tissue. Moreover, the upregulation of anti-oxidative genes, including ferritin heavy chain 1, heme oxygenase 1, NAD(P)H quinone oxidoreductase 1, and superoxide dismutase 1, in the colons of colitis/SPH group was observed compared with the control peptide treatment group. In conclusion, the protective mechanism of SPH is associated with anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative effects as demonstrated herein in an established mice model of colitis. Clinical studies with SPH as a potential functional food for the prevention or as an adjuvant therapy in IBD may add an effective and targeted diet-based approach to IBD management in the future.
The evolution of cluster X-ray sources.

The evolutionary behavior over cosmological time scales of hot intracluster gas in rich clusters of galaxies is examined with a spherically symmetric hydrodynamical code, for the important case of a time-dependent cluster gravitational potential. Both infall of primordial matter and ejection of metal-enriched galactic material are considered. Cluster X-ray properties as a function of redshift are predicted, and the results are compared to observations of low-redshift clusters. The effects of evolution are strong; for example, cluster X-ray luminosities increase by about a factor of 10 from the epoch with redshift z=1 until the present. It is shown that the effects of evolution dominate in any cosmological test with X-ray clusters.
Pore Extractor 2D: An ImageJ toolkit for quantifying cortical pore morphometry on histological bone images, with application to intraskeletal and regional patterning

Abstract Objectives Cortical porosity is used as a proxy of bone quality, fragility, and remodeling activity in anthropological contexts. Histological quantification is limited by time‐intensive manual annotation. Pore Extractor 2D is an ImageJ toolkit developed for computer‐assisted pore identification and automated pore morphometry. Materials and Methods Toolkit components include: (1) Utilities for cortical border clearing, (2) Image Pre‐Processing: Image contrast enhancement and noise reduction, (3) Pore Extractor: User‐directed options for segmenting, closing, and smoothing pore spaces, (4) Pore Modifier: Utilities to expedite manual correction of extracted pore spaces, and (5) Pore Analyzer: Morphometric analyses by pore type and anatomical region. Pore Extractor 2D was validated against manual annotation in a sample of midshaft mid‐thoracic human ribs (n = 30). Intraskeletal and regional analyses were piloted on matched (n = 9) human midshaft femora, tibiae, and sixth ribs. Results Pore Extractor 2D was statistically consistent with manual annotation of bone area, percent porosity, pore density, and mean pore size. The toolkit significantly (p < .05) reduced the smoothing effect of manual annotation by fitting pore borders to pixel brightness variations. Intraskeletal analyses found that the femur and tibia significantly exceeded the rib in “cortical” type porosity, while the rib predominantly formed “trabecularized” type porosity. Regional analyses determined that pore system expansion was elevated in the anterior femur, the anterior and medial tibia, and the cutaneous cortex of the rib. Discussion This toolkit provides expedited, semi‐automated porosity quantification that replicates manual annotation. Intraskeletal and regional variation in pore morphometry reflect localized strain patterning.
