L’aportació d’Anna de Valldaura al llegendari català

A mitjan segle XIX té lloc a Catalunya un programa de reelaboració de formes i temes de la cançó i la narrativa populars que acosta aquests gèneres a un públic més ampli i no estrictament erudit. En aquest moviment, vertebrat al voltant de la Renaixença, hi trobem el nom de la folklorista Joaquima Santamaria i Ventura. Sota el pseudònim d’Anna de Valldaura publica les Tradicions religioses de Catalunya, un recull de llegendes literaturitzades a partir de fonts orals que tracten temes religiosos i que apareixen a la premsa de l’època i en diferents edicions. L’objectiu d’aquest article és estudiar i valorar les contribucions fetes per aquesta escriptora a partir de l’establiment del corpus de relats publicats, la relació entre les diferents edicions (o llibres) i la seva classificació.
Looking for related posts on GitHub discussions

Software teams increasingly adopt different tools and communication channels to aid the software collaborative development model and coordinate tasks. Among such resources, software development forums have become widely used by developers. Such environments enable developers to get and share technical information quickly. In line with this trend, GitHub announced GitHub Discussions—a native forum to facilitate collaborative discussions between users and members of communities hosted on the platform. Since GitHub Discussions is a software development forum, it faces challenges similar to those faced by systems used for asynchronous communication, including the problems caused by related posts (duplicated and near-duplicated posts). These related posts can add noise to the platform and compromise project knowledge sharing. Hence, this article addresses the problem of detecting related posts on GitHub Discussions. To achieve this, we propose an approach based on a Sentence-BERT pre-trained general-purpose model: the RD-Detector. We evaluated RD-Detector using data from three communities hosted in GitHub. Our dataset comprises 16,048 discussion posts. Three maintainers and three Software Engineering (SE) researchers manually evaluated the RD-Detector results, achieving 77–100% of precision and 66% of recall. In addition, maintainers pointed out practical applications of the approach, such as providing knowledge to support merging the discussion posts and converting the posts to comments on other related posts. Maintainers can benefit from RD-Detector to address the labor-intensive task of manually detecting related posts.
The extreme European summer of 2015 in a long‐term perspective

In 2015, large parts of Europe were characterized by extraordinary high summer temperatures, accompanied by very dry conditions, particularly in central‐eastern Europe. Several major heat episodes occurred from the end of June until mid‐September. We provide an ad‐hoc evaluation of the observed climatological extremes in a secular context, by using a set of long station time series in daily resolution. Our data set comprises 42 temperature and 43 precipitation records, predominantly starting already in the 19th century. To investigate local record values, the individual full record length is analysed for each station, while regionally averaged analyses are presented for the core study period of 1901–2015. The study area covers Europe's central latitudes (44° to 52°N), extending from England in the west up to the central Ukraine in the east.
Harpacticoida Copepod Associated to Macroalgae Himantothallus Grandifolius (Ochrophyta, Desmarestiaceae) from Admiralty Bay (King George Island, South Shetlands Islands, Maritime Antarctica)

is research work is a pioneer study related to the Harpacticoida Copepod species of the phytal environment of Antarctica, contributing to the knowledge of the biodiversity of copepods, associated to the macroalgae of Admiralty Bay, especially those of the Harpacticoida Order. Samples of the four genus types of Harpacticoida Copepod were found in a macroalgae (Himantothallus grandifolius) especially in its appressoria, collected in the melt water area of Admiralty Bay, King George Island, Archipelago, South Shetlands, Antarctica: Stygonitocrella (Ameiridae Family), Porcellidium (Porcellidiidae Family), Alteutha potter (Peltidiidae Family), Tisbisoma (Paramesochridae Family). e copepods found in this study possess adaptation qualities that may facilitate the exploration of macroalgae, such as: epibenthic body format, which allows greater swimming capacity or a dorso-ventrally attened body, with prehensile rst pair of legs or with a large maxilliped subchelate, the latter being adaptations to be able to x itself to thalloid surfaces, in locations with strong water currents. e genus Porcellidium and the Paramesochridae Family are frequently found associated to macroalgae. Alteutha potter is described in literature as planktonic. However, we suggest that the specie can be benthonic and is capable of migrating to zooplankton. Stygonitocrellaé is described as a species of continental and subterranean waters. e fact that algae have been found at just 15m depth with strong water melt current can help explain its presence. e identi cations continue underway and include analysis of phytal samples of other macroalgae collected in the Admiralty Bay from 2010 to 2011.
Emplacement characteristics and spatial distribution of Permian Mazhartager basic dike swarms in Bachu area,Tarim basin.

Remote sensing technique and geological survey method are used to research the emplacement characteristics and spatial distribution of Permian basic dike swarms in the Mazhartager Mountain,northwestern Tarim Basin.Field outcrop observation shows the emplacement sequence of three types of igneous rocks is syenite intrusion→basic dikes→syenitic porphyritic dikes.Lithologically,the Mazhartager intrusion is composed by three types of rock,which are Hb-syenite,syenogranite and hornblendite.Many a basic dikes are found in Mazhatarger intrasion,which are different from previous observations.Remote sensing geological interpretation map was obtained by using GIS and high-resolution satellite data.Statistical analysis of basic dikes in syenite intrusion and country rocks had been done and results show that basic dikes are radicalized in Mazhartager intrusion and trend NNW in the country rocks.These discoveries may provide important information on geotectonic setting of Permain massive basic magma eruption in Tarim basin.
Contribution des technologies satellitaires Pléiades à l'étude des trames vertes urbaines : entre maintien des connectivités écologiques potentielles et densification des espaces urbains

En milieu urbain, la concurrence entre les enjeux de preservation de la biodiversite et de la densification du territoire est particulierement developpee. Dans une optique d’aide a la decision, une meilleure connaissance des zones les plus conflictuelles est requise. Face au constat d’insuffisance et d’inadequation des donnees et des methodes necessaires a la cartographie des Trames vertes urbaines, notre travail s’integre en premier lieu dans une demarche technique. Celle-ci est centree sur la mise en place d’une methode de traitement d’images satellitaires Tres Haute Resolution Spatiale Pleiades (THRS) pour l’extraction de la vegetation arboree et herbacee a l’echelle fine d’une emprise urbaine. D’abord appliquee a des donnees fictives, cette methode est ensuite deployee sur quatre territoires (Toulouse, Muret, Pierrefite-Nestalas et Strasbourg). Bien que fondee sur une approche pixel, la simplicite de la methode, qui s’appuie sur des outils libres, et les resultats obtenus (indice Kappa superieur a 85 %) garantissent sa reproductibilite sur de vastes territoires plus ou moins urbanises. Cette donnee de vegetation est ensuite exploitee pour modeliser les connectivites ecologiques potentielles du paysage urbain et periurbain toulousain. L’approche mobilise la theorie des graphes et permet d’evaluer l’impact d’un amenagement urbain sur la biodiversite. Le cas du Boulevard Urbain Nord de Toulouse est etudie. La cartographie proposee des reservoirs de biodiversite, hierarchises a l’aide de metriques de connectivite, est avant tout indicative. Elle est finalement confrontee a des documents d’urbanisme (Plans Locaux d’Urbanisme) afin d’obtenir une meilleure visibilite des territoires a enjeux environnementaux et urbanistiques. En fonction des enjeux fixes par les acteurs du territoire et a travers le filtre applicatif, cette these propose un outil robuste d’analyse et d’aide a la decision pour la gestion et la planification du territoire.
An Atypical Case of Microscopic Polyangiitis Associated With Myelodysplastic Syndrome and Complete Atrioventricular Block Mistaken for Infectious Pneumonia

The association between antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis and hematologic malignancy has been previously described and remains a rare phenomenon (although potentially underdiagnosed). We report the case of an 81-year-old patient with myelodysplastic syndrome who was managed for an infectious-appearing pneumonia, which subsequently complicated into complete heart block and severe acute respiratory distress syndrome with a fatal outcome. The final diagnosis is severe hemorrhagic alveolitis due to ANCA-associated vasculitis meeting the criteria for microscopic polyangiitis. This article provides an opportunity to discuss the association between ANCA-associated vasculitis and hematologic malignancies and the adverse prognosis associated with it.
Influence of a Spring on Fish Communities and Habitat in an Ozark Stream

ABSTRACT: Springs influence water temperature and flow of streams; however, little information exists on the effects of springs on fish communities and their potential as refugia. This study examined the impacts of a spring on a wadeable stream. Fish, water quality, and physical habitat data were collected seasonally in 2011–2012 upstream and downstream of Double Spring, located on Terrell Creek within Wilson's Creek National Battlefield, Missouri. Downstream of the spring, stream width was similar among seasons, and temperature, dissolved oxygen, and depth were less variable than upstream throughout the year. Temperature was significantly higher and dissolved oxygen was significantly lower at the upstream reach in summer, which completely dried by fall. During spring and winter, temperature and dissolved oxygen did not vary between reaches. The fish community differed between the upstream and downstream sites, particularly in summer when community similarity (Bray-Curtis) was 30.2%. Species richness and number of species intolerant to human disturbance and poor water quality were always greater in the downstream site within each season, with species richness and relative abundance highest during summer and fall. In the upstream reach, species richness was highest in the spring and relative abundance was highest in summer. Across seasons, species richness, number of intolerant species, and relative abundance were more consistent at the downstream reach compared to upstream. The presence of springs in small wadeable streams influences both physical/chemical habitat parameters and fish assemblages downstream, allowing communities to persist during dry summer months and potentially acting as refugia or supporting source populations for upstream reaches.
Impaired discourse content in aphasia is associated with frontal white matter damage

Abstract Aphasia is a common consequence of stroke with severe impacts on employability, social interactions and quality of life. Producing discourse-relevant information in a real-world setting is the most important aspect of recovery because it is critical to successful communication. This study sought to identify the lesion correlates of impaired production of relevant information in spoken discourse in a large, unselected sample of participants with post-stroke aphasia. Spoken discourse (n = 80) and structural brain scans (n = 66) from participants with aphasia following left hemisphere stroke were analysed. Each participant provided 10 samples of spoken discourse elicited in three different genres, and ‘correct information unit’ analysis was used to quantify the informativeness of speech samples. The lesion correlates were identified using multivariate lesion–symptom mapping, voxel-wise disconnection and tract-wise analyses. Amount and speed of relevant information were highly correlated across different genres and with total lesion size. The analyses of lesion correlates converged on the same pattern: impaired production of relevant information was associated with damage to anterior dorsal white matter pathways, specifically the arcuate fasciculus, frontal aslant tract and superior longitudinal fasciculus. Damage to these pathways may be a useful biomarker for impaired informative spoken discourse and informs development of neurorehabilitation strategies.
Geophysical Evidence for Deep Basin in Western Kentucky

The Rough Creek fault zone is a major element of the 38th Parallel lineament in western Kentucky and southern Illinois near the head of the Mississippi embayment. Gravity, magnetic, and subsurface data suggest that this fault zone marks the northern boundary of a large graben in the Precambrian basement for which we propose the name Rough Creek graben. This graben is a major structural feature which probably formed initially in late Precambrian to early Paleozoic time and has been reactivated (perhaps several times) during the late Paleozoic and possibly the Mesozoic. The graben is as much as 5.5 km deep and the large volume of deeply buried sediments favors further exploration.
Effect of Foot Reflexology and Benson Relaxation on Pain, Breastfeeding and Weight of Neonates of Women Undergoing a Cesarean Section

Background: Given the negative effect of postoperative pharmacological pain control on breastfeeding, the present study aimed to compare the effects of reflexology and Benson relaxation methods on pain, breastfeeding, and infant weight gain in women undergoing a cesarean section (C/S). Methods: This randomized clinical trial was conducted on 135 women undergoing a C/S in the Gynecology Ward of Bushehr Persian Gulf Martyrs Hospital in Bushehr, Iran, in 2020. The participants were selected using convenience sampling, and randomly divided into three groups of foot reflexology, Benson relaxation, and control. The interventions were performed two hours post-operation and six hours after the first intervention. The pain score was measured and recorded immediately, and 30 and 60 minutes after each intervention. Breastfeeding frequency and duration were also assessed in the first 18 hours of birth. The infants’ weight was assessed at birth and 10 days later. Data analysis was performed using inferential statistics, chi-square or Fisher’s exact test, Kruskal-Wallis test, Mann-Whitney U or one-way ANOVA, Wilcoxon test and logistic regression analysis. Results: There was a larger decrease in the pain score of the reflexology and Benson relaxation (P<0.01) groups after the first and second interventions, compared to the control group. The breastfeeding frequency was higher in the two intervention groups, compared to the control group (P<0.001). Furthermore, the rate of return to the birth weight in ten days of birth was higher in the reflexology (P<0.01) and Benson groups (P<0.05) than the control group. Conclusion: Both the reflexology and the Benson relaxation methods effectively decreased pain and increased breastfeeding frequency and the infant’s weight gain.
Theoretical estimates of light reflection and transmission by spatially complex and temporally varying sea ice covers

The reflection, absorption, and transmission of light at visible and near-infrared wavelengths by snow and ice covers is important for a number of geophysical problems. The focus of this paper is on the reflection and transmission of light by spatially inhomogeneous and temporally varying sea ice covers. This is investigated using a two-stream, multilayer radiative transfer model in the wavelength region from 400 to 1000 nm. The model is computationally simple and utilizes the available experimental data on the optical properties of sea ice. The ice cover is characterized as a layered medium composed of selections from nine distinct snow and ice types. Three case studies are presented illustrating values of spectral albedo, transmittance, and transmitted photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) for (1) a spatially inhomogeneous ice cover, (2) a uniform ice cover as it undergoes a melt cycle, and (3) a temporally changing spatially variable ice cover. Results indicate that small-scale horizontal variations in snow depth and ice thickness can cause light transmission to change over 3 orders of magnitude. Dramatic changes in light reflection and transmission are predicted in the early part of the melt season as the ice cover evolves from an opaque, snow-covered medium to translucent bare or ponded ice.
Technical note: Simple masks for shadowing and highlighting in SAR images

This paper presents a simple algorithm to indicate the areas of a Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) image likely to be affected by radar shadow, excessive highlighting, or the opposite phenomenon, 'lowlighting'. The algorithm is not intended as a substitute for the much lengthier routines that solve the radar mapping equation, but rather as an aid to the selection of suitable areas for more detailed investigation. It is an image-processing routine applied to a suitable Digital Elevation Model (DEM) of the terrain to be imaged. In this context, the suitability of the DEM is characterized by the ratio of the vertical to horizontal sampling intervals, and sufficient information is provided to enable the suitability of a particular DEM to be evaluated. An implementation of the algorithm in the NIH Image macro language is available at the author's web site.
Hydrological response of hillslope soils above a debris-slide headscarp

The Jamieson Creek debris slide initiated in thin soils over a competent bedrock surface, on a planar section of hillslope, during a heavy rainstorm in November 1990. An array of automated piezometers and tensiometers was placed along a 22 m wide section of the headscarp in 1997 to monitor the temporal variation of pore-water pressures. Interpretation of the data addresses the hydrologic response to the storms in October and November 1997. The piezometers, which were designed for installation by driving, reveal very localized responses in what otherwise appears to be a uniform soil matrix. Peak positive pressures occur at the time of maximum rainfall intensity. The tensiometers indicate the hydrological response at the ground surface appears uncoupled from that at the bedrock interface. Implications of the extreme spatial variability in pore-water pressure are evaluated for conceptual models of hillslope hydrology. The assumption of parallel seepage flow is widely adopted in translational slope stability analyses, imposing a linear distribution of pore-water pressure with depth. None of the reported field data are consistent with such a linear distribution with depth or a uniform response across the slope.
Autonomous movements and the institutional left: two approaches in tension in Madrid's anti-globalization network

This paper explores the configuration of the anti-globalization movement network in Madrid. It identifies a central tension between two different approaches to political practice, which fall along autonomous/institutional lines. Despite ideological heterogeneity and frame convergence on both sides of this ‘divide’, the differences in approach to political practice create real tensions when these groups attempt to work together. These tensions have recently become visible at the European Social Forums (ESFs), and are often superficially treated as a difference between ‘horizontals’ and ‘verticals’. Through an analysis of these tensions with the use of data drawn from ethnographic fieldwork conducted in Madrid from 2002 to 2005, I argue that autonomous groups in Madrid benefit from a discursive legitimacy gained from the centrality of autonomous principles in the global movement, but that they are still dependent on institutional left organizations for crucial resources.

Synthetic graphene–copper nanocomposites interact with the hACE-2 enzyme and inhibit its biochemical activity

This study demonstrates the copper nanocomposite-induced enzymatic inhibition of human angiotensin I-converting enzyme-2 (hACE-2) by complex stabilization through the formation of the enzyme nanocomposite. The immediate application of this work is related to ACE-2 as a mechanism of SARS-CoV-2 entry into cells. Moreover, ACE-2 enzyme regulation is a potential therapeutic strategy in hypertension and cardiovascular disease, diabetes, lung injury, and fibrotic disorders. Thus, inhibition of ACE-2 with nanocomposite therapy, may have pharmacologic application with regard to infectious and non-infectious diseases. Synthesized copper nanocomposites described here alone with a commercially available compound, were tested for their potential to inhibit hACE-2 activities. Following wet chemical synthesis, Cu/CuO nanoparticles and graphene–copper (GO–Cu) complexes were synthesized and characterized for their chemical integrity. Cu/CuO formed well-dispersed clusters of 390 ± 100 nm, that when complexed with the hACE-2 enzyme exhibited larger clusters of 506 ± 56 nm. The formation of the Cu/CuO and hACE-2 enzyme complex was monitored by analyzing the zeta potential, which reflected the surface charge distribution of the complex. A negatively charged Cu/CuO nanocomposite nearly becomes neutral when complexed with hACE-2 further assuring the complex formation. Formation of this complex and its inactivation of hACE-2 was evaluated using a standardized protocal for enzymatic activity. Similarly, carboxylate-functionalized graphene was complexed with copper, and its inhibitory effect was studied. Each step in the GO–Cu composite formation was monitored by characterizing its surface electrical properties, resulting in a decrease in its zeta potential and conductivity when complexed with copper. The interaction of the nanocomposites with hACE-2 was confirmed by 2D-FDS and gel electrophoresis analysis. GO–Cu was a rapid and efficacious inhibitor compared to Cu–CuO, especially at lower concentrations (2 μg ml−1). Considering the environmental friendliness of copper and graphene and their use in industries as surface coating materials, we anticipate that use of these composites once proven effective, may have future antimicrobial application. Utility of nanocomposites as antimicrobials, either as a surface antimicrobial or as an in vivo therapeutic, could be invisioned for use against current unknown and/or emergent pathogens.
