El complejo respiratorio bovino (CRB) es la principal causa de enfermedad y muerte en el ganado de engorda en todo el mundo. Es un síndrome infeccioso multifactorial provocado por distintos virus y bacterias que disminuyen la eficiencia productiva y ocasionan pérdidas económicas. En México, el CRB se ha reportado en todas las regiones donde se engorda ganado; sin embargo, esos reportes carecen de información sobre la presencia del coronavirus respiratorio bovino (CVB), haciendo necesario contar con herramientas de diagnóstico confiables y precisas para detectar la presencia de CVB en el ganado que se engorda en México, para proponer las medidas sanitarias apropiadas para su manejo clínico. En este trabajo, se desarrolló una plataforma de diagnóstico molecular de PCR en tiempo real (rt-PCR) que amplifica un fragmento de la proteína S del CVB en muestras de exudado nasal. Al aplicar la plataforma rt-PCR para CVB en bovinos de engorda en aparente estado de salud y con signos de enfermedad respiratoria asociados a CRB se encontró que 19/50 (38 %) resultaron positivos, confirmando la presencia de ese virus en el ganado de la región. Los resultados de este trabajo significan el primer reporte sobre la presencia del CVB asociado al CRB en la región ganadera del noroeste de México y sienta las bases para futuras investigaciones sobre papel que juega este virus en la presentación de la patología del CRB en los sistemas de explotación de bovinos de engorda en nuestra región y el país.

El objetivo del estudio fue analizar los factores que determinan el uso de variedades de polinización libre de sorgo en el norte del estado de Sinaloa, con la finalidad de caracterizar el tipo de productores que utilizan este tipo de semillas. Se utilizó un modelo de elección discreta para identificar los factores que inciden en la adopción de sorgo de 199 ganaderos. Posteriormente, a través de pruebas no paramétricas se caracterizaron los adoptadores (n= 11) y no adoptadores (n= 188) de la tecnología. Los resultados muestran que 5.5 % de los productores han adoptado variedades de sorgo. El número de años con asistencia técnica y la producción de leche resultaron significativas (P<0.05) para la adopción. En tanto, la caracterización de los ganaderos mostró que aquellos que cuentan con mayor cantidad de recursos: infraestructura, maquinaria, ganado, tierra, jornales y asistencia técnica, son los que adoptaron las variedades de sorgo. Se concluye que la adopción de semillas es baja y necesita de bienes públicos, como la extensión agrícola, para la difusión de sus beneficios que permita una mayor apropiación de los ganaderos en la región de estudio.

Published: December 2020

Aethina tumida (Coleoptera: Nitidulidae), commonly known as the Small Hive Beetle (SHB), is becoming a significant pest in the beekeeping industry outside of its natural distribution range. In Mexico, recent reports indicate that the SHB is distributed throughout the Yucatan peninsula. The invasion of honey bee colonies by SHB it is mainly chemically mediated by volatiles produced by the yeast Kodamaea ohmeri which is regarded as a secondary symbiont of the SHB. It was analyzed the presence of this yeast in honey bee colonies of Yucatan based on the premise that symbionts are often conjointly distributed with their hosts, therefore the presence of K. ohmeri in hives will be closely associated with the presence of SHB. In managed Africanized honey bee (AHB) colonies, yeasts associated with adult beetles were isolated and identified and the results show that the SHB together with their associated yeast, K. ohmeri, have invaded AHB colonies in Yucatan. It was also reported the presence of yeasts other than K. ohmeri associated with SHB that for the first time are recorded in a geographical region where they had not been recorded before.

El objetivo del presente estudio fue evaluar el impacto de la inclusión de información extranjera de sementales de la raza Holstein, sobre su evaluación genética para las características de producción de leche (PL), grasa (PG) y proteína (PP) en kilogramos. Lo anterior, se logró mediante la comparación de valores genéticos (VG) y confiabilidades (CF), agrupación de sementales por número de hijas, ordenamiento de los sementales y la superioridad genética esperada por año ((∆I_s)⁄ys), con diferentes escenarios determinados por la intensidad de selección (〖ip〗_s) de sementales usados en la evaluación genética nacional (EG-MEX), los incorporados a la evaluación genética internacional con hijas en México (EG-I) y la evaluación genética internacional con o sin hijas en México (EG-MACE). En total, se analizó la información de 5,825 sementales en la para PL y 3,914 para PG y PP. El impacto de la información extranjera en la EG-MEX es positivo, debido a que mejora la CF de los VG de los sementales usados en México. También, permitió observar diferencias importantes de los VG y CF entre las evaluaciones, generando una oportunidad de mejoramiento en la población Holstein mexicana; por lo que, es recomendable continuar con la participación en el programa de Interbull, y considerar el uso de la información validada de manera internacional en los procesos de selección de animales productores de leche y sus componentes. Estas acciones pueden contribuir de manera importante en el incremento del progreso genético productivo a nivel nacional.

Antibody Disulfide Bond Reduction and Recovery during Biopharmaceutical Process Development - A Review
Authors: Ren Tingwei , Tan Zhijun , Ehamparanathan Vivekh , Lewandowski Angela , Ghose Sanchayita , Li Zheng Jian
Published: December 2020

Disulfide bond reduction has been a challenging issue in antibody
manufacturing, as it leads to reduced product purity, failed product
specifications and more importantly, impacting drug safety and efficacy.
Scientists across industry have been examining the root causes and
developing mitigation strategies to address the challenge. In recent
years, with the development of high-titer mammalian cell culture
processes to meet the rapidly growing demand for antibody
biopharmaceuticals, disulfide bond reduction has been observed more
frequently. Thus, it is necessary to continue evolving the disulfide
reduction mitigation strategy and development of novel approaches to
achieve high product quality. Additionally, in recent years as more
complex molecules emerge such as bispecific and trispecific antibodies,
the molecular heterogeneity due to incomplete formation of the
interchain disulfide bonds becomes a more imperative issue. Given the
disulfide reduction challenges that our industry are facing, in this
review, we provide a comprehensive contemporary scientific insight into
the root cause analysis of disulfide reduction during process
development of antibody therapeutics, mitigation strategies and recovery
based on our expertise in commercial and clinical manufacturing of
biologics. First, this paper intended to highlight different aspects of
the root cause for disulfide reduction. Secondly, to provide a broader
understanding of the disulfide bond reduction in downstream process,
this paper discussed disulfide bond reduction impact to product
stability and process performance, analytical methods for detection and
characterization, process control strategies and their manufacturing
implementation. In addition, brief perspectives on development of future
mitigation strategies will also be reviewed, including platform
alignment, mitigation strategy application for bi- and tri-specific
antibodies and using machine learning to identify molecule
susceptibility of disulfide bond reduction. The data in this review are
originated from both the published papers and our internal development
work.

Evaluating Cell Viability Heterogeneity Based on Information Fusion of Multiple Adhesion Strengths
Authors: Wei Mingji , Zhang Rongbiao , Zhang Fei , Zhang Yecheng
Published: December 2020

Cell viability evaluation is significantly meaningful for cellular
assays. Some cells with weak viability are easily killed in the
detection of anti-cancer drugs, while others with strong viability
survive and proliferate, ultimately leading to the treatment failure or
the inaccuracy of biological assays. Accurately evaluating cell
viability heterogeneity still remains difficult. This paper proposed a
multi-physical property information fusion method for evaluating cell
viability heterogeneity based on multiple linear regression (MLR) on a
single-channel integrated microfluidic chip. In this method, adhesion
strengths τN, that are defined as the magnitude of shear stress needed
to detach (100-N) % of cell population, were extracted as the
independent variables of MLR model by calculating the linear fitting of
the impedance-response curves for shear stress (cell detachment assay).
Besides, by calculating the non-linear fitting of the drug dose-response
curves for cancer cells (IC50 assay), the half-maximal inhibitory
concentration (IC50) was extracted as the dependent variables of MLR
model. The results show that the mean relative error of our fusion
method reduces by 17.87% and 59.66% compared with the single-parameter
method and the cell counting method. Moreover, through the theoretical
analysis of the drug resistance heterogeneity model, it proved that
there is a qualitative relationship between the cell adhesion strength
and cell viability heterogeneity, which provides a theoretical basis for
our fusion method.

Inhaled nebulised unfractionated heparin (UFH) has a strong scientific
and biological rationale that warrants urgent investigation of its
therapeutic potential in patients with COVID-19. UFH has antiviral
effects and prevents the SARS-CoV-2 virus’ entry into mammalian cells.
In addition, UFH has significant anti-inflammatory and anti-coagulant
properties, which limit progression of lung injury and vascular
pulmonary thrombosis. Methods and intervention The INHALEd nebulised
unfractionated HEParin for the treatment of hospitalised patients with
COVID-19 (INHALE-HEP) meta-trial is a prospective individual patient
data analysis of on-going randomised controlled trials and early phase
studies. Individual studies are being conducted in multiple countries.
Participating studies randomise adult patients admitted to the hospital
with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection, who do not require immediate
mechanical ventilation, to inhaled nebulised UFH or standard care. All
studies collect a minimum core dataset. The primary outcome for the
meta-trial is intubation (or death, for patients who died before
intubation) at day 28. The secondary outcomes are oxygenation, clinical
worsening and mortality, assessed in time-to-event analyses. Individual
studies may have additional outcomes. Analysis We use a Bayesian
approach to monitoring, followed by analysing individual patient data,
outcomes and adverse events. All analyses will follow the
intention-to-treat principle, considering all participants in the
treatment group to which they were assigned, except for cases lost to
follow-up or withdrawn. Trial registration, ethics and dissemination The
meta-trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov ID NCT04635241. Each
contributing study is individually registered and has received approval
of the relevant ethics committee or institutional review board.

The problem of irrational use of water resources is relevant today and has a global manifestation. Due to the irrational and improper use of water resources, the quality of water in lakes, rivers, seas and other reservoirs of water is gradually deteriorating. But water is the most valuable natural resource. The rapid development of human activity, the careless use of water resources leads to the ingress of chemical, biological and physical substances into them that are not characteristic of a clean water reservoir. Problems of this kind have become too acute and their solution is in the first place for humanity.

Published: December 2020

Background: Adolescence responds to a period of maturity and adjustment to the adult world; therefore, it is influenced by the social and family context, as well as by the previous stages of development. The objective of the present investigation was to determine the factors associated with violence against adolescents at home in Peru. Methods. A secondary analysis of the National Survey of Social Relations 2015 was carried out. The sample was of 1491 adolescents between 12 to 17 years old. Raw (PR) and adjusted (PRa) prevalence ratios using Poisson regression with robust variance were estimated. Results. It was found that adolescent women (PRa: 1.4; 95% CI: 1.17-1.68) and adolescents who live in homes where there are continuous fights or arguments between parents or adults who live there (PRa: 2.75; 95% CI: 2.11-3.57) have a higher risk of violence. Conclusions. Women and adolescents who live in families where there are continuous arguments between parents or adults have a high risk of domestic violence.

Various aspects of the literature are examined, such as the algorithms adopted, the type of results drawn, the educational setting of the application and the actual exploitation of the outcomes. Findings indicate that tertiary education dominates the EDM field; in contrast, the focus given to secondary and primary education is minimal.
The Impact of Covid-19 Pandemic on Water-Health-Food-Economy Nexus and Sustainable Development in Developing Countries
Authors: Joshua W. K.
Published: December 2020

The SARS-Cov-2 pandemic has raised important concerns regarding sustainable development. With vaccines still on trial and lack of effective treatment, countries must ensure adequate measures are in place to protect and cushion the impact of the virus. In this short review, I examine the impact of SARS-CoV-2 on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). I aim to achieve this by looking at how non-pharmaceutical measures like lockdown, impacts negatively on the water-health-food-economy nexus, and how it affects the realization of the SDGs. The nexus between water, food, health, and economy especially in the context of the pandemic has a strong relationship that will undermine sustainable development. I argue that a large number of people from Sub-Saharan Africa have largely been marginalized economically and socially and that despite having low numbers of positive cases, the region will significantly be impacted due to underlying issues relating to poverty, hunger, poor education and health systems. Although I project to see a relatively improved health sector due to the funds injected into the sector to curtail the pandemic, food-water-economy will drastically impact on sustainable development in the region. There is therefore the need to address the issue by adopting a measure that looks at the nexus between food, water, health, and economy. The root problem underlying the inequity in the health, water food and economic sectors, exposed by the pandemic must be addressed, not just to prepare for another pandemic but to care for people in resource-poor settings in non-pandemic times and ensure sustainable development.
Double Beam Energy Harvester Based on PZT Piezoelectrics
Authors: Rangel Renato , Sobrinho José , Silva Alan , Souto Cícero , Ries Andreas
Published: December 2020

This work presents a new design and performance evaluation of an energy harvester. The generator was built in the form of a double beam mechanical structure on which eight piezoelectric elements were glued and subjected to cyclic tensile and compression loads. Electrical energy is converted from mechanical vibrations generated by machines, by means of a piezoelectric material based on Lead Zirconium Titanate (PZT). Geometric dimensions of the beam structure were optimized by a finite element analysis prior to the practical construction of the device. Simulated and experimental results regarding the generator dynamics and the generated electric voltage are presented and compared. The device was evaluated for different excitations and vibration amplitudes at a frequency of 60 Hz in order to capture vibrational energy from machines at this frequency. Additionally, the generator's performance was evaluated when operating under two different real-world conditions: First, the device mounted on a condenser of an air conditioner, then on a three-phase motor pump. As a load for the piezoelectric generator, an RF circuit transmitted the ambient temperature information to a nearby computer. Correct reception of the ambient temperature value validated the ability to generate electrical power suitable for a low-power circuit. As contribution to the literature, this study demonstrates the ability of a novel piezoelectric generator design, to provide sufficient power for a circuit transmitting information from a sensor. This allows monitoring the state of a machine, using energy dissipated by mechanical vibrations in order to power the electronic systems responsible for sensing.
Comparing the Planck-Vacuum and Urantia-Book Depictions of the Seven-Dimensional Spacetime
Authors: Daywitt William C.
Published: December 2020

This paper compares the 7-dimensional spacetime of the Planck vacuum (PV) theory to that of the Urantia Book with its total cosmological viewpoint. Results show that, where the two genres overlap, there is a total agreement between the two. The concept of “circular simultaneity” is introduced into the PV-theory lexicon. The comparison leads to the conclusion that the circular simultaneity of the Urantia Book is directly related to the annihilation equations of the electron-positron and the proton-antiproton cores of the PV theory. Juxtaposing the two genres opens up a deeper understanding for both.

Appendix A introduces an aspect to mathematical modeling that is new and unique: in the present case, the Dirac cores and the PV state are now connected to a transcendental aspect of nature that far exceeds the scope of the particle-related PV model.
An R-L Static Var Compensator (SVC)
Authors: Onah A. J. , Ezema E. E. , Egwuatu I. D.
Published: December 2020

Traditional static var compensators (SVCs) employ shunt reactors and capacitors. These standard reactive power shunt elements are controlled to produce rapid and variable reactive power. Power electronic devices like the thyristor etc. are used to switch them in or out of the network to which they are connected in response to system conditions. There are two basic types, namely the thyristor-controlled reactor (TCR), and the thyristor-switched capacitor (TSC). In this paper we wish to investigate a compensator where the reactor or capacitor is replaced by a series connected resistor and reactor (R-L). The performance equations are derived and applied to produce the compensator characteristics for each of the configurations. Their performances are compared, and the contrasts between them displayed. All three configurations are made to achieve unity power factor in a system.

The accuracy of translation from the source language (SL) to the targeted language (TL) is not easy work. The translator should act as the connector between the writer of the work and the reader of the translation. The paper tries to analyses the translation of Arbai'n An-Nawawi by using the techniques offered by Molina Albir. This is a qualitative study that focuses on how the translator translated the Idhofi case in the Matan of Araba'in as the material object of this paper. Besides, the authors distributed questionnaires to assess the quality of the translation. The paper found that the translator uses 11 techniques that consist of 64 data of literal, 25 data of amplification, 21 data of borrowing, 12 data adaptation techniques, 6 data of compensation, 2 data of discursive creation, 2 data of reduction, 1 data of generalization, 1 data of modulation, and 1 data of transposition technique. Meanwhile, from the quality of the translation, it can be concluded that the compensation technique is much more acceptable, with 81% very accurate, 73% acceptable, and 77% rated high legibility. It is because the method helps the reader to understand the meaning, message, and goals to be conveyed.
Neology of Arabic in Indonesia
Authors: Sukiman Uki
Published: December 2020

The development of Arabic which is influenced other language and culture is very interesting to be discussed, because Arabs themselves are not able to give a name to something that does not exist in their nature and their thought, such as naming cases, and terms that come from language and nature of thought of Indonesians. Many of these new words and terms have been featured in one of the Arabic language magazines which is Alo Indonesia. This study aims to find out how the names and terms in Indonesian discourse influenced Arabic and the problems that arise in the process of producing words in the magazine. This research is literature research that used descriptive methods, namely describing the data by concerning to how the use of new Arabic words and terms in Alo Indonesia magazine. The data collection method is done by using the “note-taking” technique which is then collected in the data card. To answer the two main problems above, the writer used Ibrahim Murad's theory of neology. The findings of this study shows that according to five theories by Ibrahim Murad, Alo Indonesia magazine uses more semantic neology theory (al-Taulĩd al-Dalalĩ) and loan neology (al-Taulĩd bi al-Iqtirād). The biggest problem in the transliteration process from Indonesian letters into Arabic is that not all vowels and consonants in Indonesian are also available simultaneously in Arabic, and so does the difficulty of finding the equivalent of idea in the expression of these two languages.

The present study aims to identify teachers' perceptions of mobile devices use in Arabic learning at junior high schools. Employed a qualitative method with a case study, 24 Arabic language teachers from various junior high schools in the South Tangerang City involved in this study selected by using a random sampling method. Based on the teacher perspectives, the results of the study reveal that the use of mobile devices facilitates students in understanding Arabic lessons and increase their motivation for learning. Time limitations and large classroom sizes were obstacles that decrease teachers’ interest to integrate mobile devices into classroom activities. Reading is by far the main language skill taught by teachers and there is a less focus on productive skills such as speaking and writing. The students have less attention and motivation for learning Arabic while the teachers have attempted to deal with this problem by several measures.The characteristic of Arabic language differs from each context. However, whether for inside or outside classroom activities, active methods are of particular importance for Arabic learning. Arabic teaching and learning practices facilitated by mobile devices require careful planning for a successful implementation lead to more active and effective learning of Arabic.

El presente estudio tuvo como objetivo analizar la composición corporal, la práctica físico-deportiva semanal y los hábitos alimentarios de alumnos de secundaria. Sesenta sujetos (1,57±0,07 m; 49,4±10,5 kg), con edades comprendidas entre 12 y 13 años participaron en este estudio descriptivo transversal. Se evaluó la composición corporal, las horas semanales de práctica físico-deportiva y la ingesta nutricional. Los resultados del estudio mostraron diferencias significativas entre chicos y chicas en el pliegue abdominal, pliegue del muslo, diámetro biepicondiloideo, porcentaje graso, porcentaje muscular y peso graso (p<0,05). Los sujetos estudiados se ajustaban a las horas de práctica físico-deportiva aconsejada por los expertos. En ambos géneros, la ingesta de proteínas fue superior a las ingestas dietéticas recomendadas, unido a un exceso en el consumo de ácidos grasos saturados y un déficit en la ingesta de ácidos grasos poliinsaturados y fibra. Las ingestas de micronutrientes, en general, se ajustaban a los consejos de los expertos, todo lo contrario al consumo de fruta, verdura y ultraprocesados. Los estudiantes de secundaria, independiente de su sexo, seguían las pautas de práctica físico-deportiva diaria, existiendo un desajuste en las recomendaciones de consumo de fruta, verdura y alimentos ultraprocesados. En estas edades, las chicas presentaban un mayor porcentaje graso que los chicos.
Artículo 2/2020_EJIC (nº 198) Preocupación por el delito en territorios seguros: Un estudio exploratorio sobre seguridad subjetiva en Quito, Ecuador
Authors: Anrango Narváez David
Published: December 2020

Este estudio es parte de los esfuerzos iniciales para examinar la relación entre las expectativas de protección ciudadana y la gestión operativa de la policía ecuatoriana. Se analiza cómo la preocupación ciudadana por el delito no siempre queda resuelta debido a las mejoras y los esfuerzos desempeñados por controlar la criminalidad objetiva. Mediante una encuesta desarrollada en el subcircuito Las Casas 1 de la ciudad de Quito se examina la correspondencia que existe entre la preocupación por el delito y un conjunto de variables de tipo demográfico, social, ambiental y policial. De forma adicional, por medio de los mapas cognitivos compuestos, y en función de las narrativas emocionales y cognitivas vigentes en la navegación espacial, se identifican los espacios denominados “hotspots of fear of crime” –i.e., áreas de concentración de preocupación por el delito– y los elementos situacionales que favorecen su persistencia. Al final se reflexiona sobre cómo este nuevo instrumento podría motivar en la policía un interés por la criminalidad percibida.
The Impact of Legal Status on Different Schooling Aspects of Adolescents in Germany
Authors: Homuth Christoph , Welker Jörg , Will Gisela , Von Maurice Jutta
Published: December 2020

During the so-called refugee crisis of 2015, approximately 300,000 underage asylum seekers came to Germany. We examine whether their legal status and their subjective perception of their status are equally important for their educational integration. On the basis of rational choice theory, we hypothesize that refugees’ legal status should affect their educational outcomes. Our study finds no differences among students with different legal statuses in school placement. However, students who perceive their status as insecure report significantly worse GPA than students who feel rather secure. Concerning the objective legal status, we do find that students with an insecure legal status report better grades than those with a granted refugee status. These contrary results show the importance of additionally considering status perception in understanding and explaining educational outcomes of immigrants in further research. Educators should be aware of the potential divergence between objective and subjective status and their corresponding effects on educational trajectories.

Published: December 2020

Sheepskin is one alternative to raw materials for producing gelatin. This study aims to compare the quality of gelatin from sheepskin based on different types of pretreatment solutions used, namely HCl 1,5% solution and NaOH 1,5% solution. Data analysis used t-test to compare two treatment methods. Yield and protein gelatin there is a difference where the treatment of HCl 1,5% solution is higher than the treatment of NaOH 1,5% solution. The brighter visual quality of gelatin colour was produced by HCl 1,5% treatment compared to NaOH 1,5% and commercial gelatin treatments. The results of the microstructure using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) showed that there were still lots of clumps of protein and cavities in the gelatin NaOH 1,5% and commercial gelatin treatments. Gelatin with HCl 1,5% treatment showed the best results.

Objetivo: É objetivo deste exame revisional, apresentar os pontos fortes já estudados acerca de como a disciplina de educação física promove saúde no ambiente de ensino. Revisão Bibliográfica: A disciplina de educação física já não pode ser considerada apenas o momento da diversão e da descontração como por muito tempo se fez. Por mais que exista o quebrar da formalidade da sala de aula e o deslocamento do ambiente comum de aplicação das disciplinas, há que se considerar todos os aspectos importantes que levam a valorização da prática de esportes. Manter o corpo em movimento é, na maioria das vezes, manter o corpo saudável. A prática de esportes em um País que a maior parte da população é sedentária, surge como alternativa no o combate a doenças causadas pela estagnação do corpo, sobrepeso, entre outras consequências de não manter um ritmo mínimo de atividades físicas. Considerações Finais: O estudo é pautado na divulgação e na proposição de ideias que levem a esclarecer a importância da prática de esportes do ambiente escolar, principalmente no que se refere aos seus benefícios para a saúde.
