Authors: Page Richard S. , Gupta Gaurav , Shanmugasundaram Saseendar
Published: June 2020

Humeral avulsion of the glenohumeral ligament (HAGL) and posterior labral tears are less common injuries in comparison to Bankart lesion in traumatic shoulder instability. The association of rotator cuff tears with posterior capsulolabral lesions is even rarer. We present an unreported combination of HAGL with posterior labral tear and partial articular infraspinatus tendon avulsion (PAITA). This combination of shoulder injuries (HALP triad – HAGL + posterior labral tear + PAITA) has not been reported so far in English literature. The mechanism of this rare combination of injuries is discussed. The arthroscopic technique for simultaneous repair of this combination of ligament tears is presented.

Hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) electrocatalysts over platinum (Pt) in an alkaline medium is crucial for hydrogen economy. Herein, we demonstrate new concept “interface-active electrode” to transform naturally inert alkaline HER materials towards industry-applicable HER electrocatalyst, comprised of interface-rich NiP2-FeP2 on Cu nanowires that required overpotential as low as 23.6 and 357 mV at -10 and -1000 mA/cm2, respectively, with exceptional stability at the industrial current density of -1 A cm-2, superior to commercial Pt under alkaline solution. Structural characterization and theoretical calculations revealed the abundant interface between facets of NiP2-FeP2 on Cu exhibits optimum H adsorption-free energy than Pt and lower kinetic barrier for water dissociation (ΔGB = 0.16 eV), boosting alkaline HER. Additionally, when integrated in a water splitting device, generated 10 mA/cm2 at only 1.42, 1.4, and 1.31 V under 1 M KOH, artificial seawater at 25 ̊C and 100 ̊C, respectively, along with high solar-to-hydrogen (STH) conversion efficiency of 19.85 %.
Poison or Promoter? Investigating the Dual-Role of Carbon Monoxide in Pincer-Iridium-Based Alkane Dehydrogenation Systems via Operando Diffuse Reflectance Infrared Fourier Transform Spectroscopy

Published: June 2020

Pincer-ligated iridium complexes of the form [Ir(R4PCP)L] (R4PCP = κ3-C6H3-2,6-(XPR2)2; X = CH2, O; R = tBu, iPr) have previously been shown competent for acceptorless alkane dehydrogenation when supported on silica. It was observed by post-catalysis solid-state NMR that silica-tethered [Ir(C2H4)(≡SiO-tBu4POCOP)] (3-C2H4) was converted fully to [Ir(CO)(≡SiO-tBu4POCOP)] (3-CO) at 300 °C. In this work, the characterization of species under dehydrogenation reaction conditions far from equilibrium between butane and butenes (approach to equilibrium Q/Keq = 0.3 at 300 °C) is performed with operando Diffuse Reflectance Infrared Fourier-Transform Spectroscopy (DRIFTS) to show the kinetics of species conversion from 3-C2H4 to 3-CO. It is further found that [IrClH(≡SiO-tBu4POCOP)] (3-HCl), a species considered to be a precatalyst for alkane dehydrogenation, is also fully converted to 3-CO. A mechanism of decomposition is proposed that implicates surface silanol groups, while carbon monoxide acts as a “stabilizer” for the catalyst by promoting their reductive elimination and maintaining the complex in the I oxidation state.

Published: June 2020

Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) is a powerful technique for the label-free spatially-resolved analysis of biological tissues. Coupling ion mobility (IM) separation with MSI allows separation of isobars in the mobility dimension and increases confidence of peak assignments. Recently, imaging experiments have been implemented on the Agilent 6560 Ion Mobility Quadrupole Time of Flight Mass Spectrometer, making MSI experiments more broadly accessible to the MS community. However, the absence of data analysis software for this system presents a bottleneck. Herein, we present a vendor-specific imaging workflow to visualize IM-MSI data produced on the Agilent IM-MS system. Specifically, we have developed a Python script, the ion mobility-mass spectrometry image creation script (IM-MSIC), which interfaces Agilent’s Mass Hunter Mass Profiler software with the MacCoss lab’s Skyline software and generates drift time and mass-to-charge selected ion images. In the workflow, Mass Profiler is used for an untargeted feature detection. The IM-MSIC script mediates user input of data and extracts ion chronograms utilizing Skyline’s command-line interface, then proceeds towards ion image generation within a single user interface. Ion image post-processing is subsequently performed using different tools implemented in accompanying scripts.

Published: June 2020

A synthesis of decaarylanthracene with nine different substituents has been accomplished by a coupling/ring-transformation strategy. The oxidation of tetraarylthiophenes with four different substituents to the corresponding thiophene S-oxides, and a [4+2] cycloaddition with a double benzyne precursor afforded a multiply arylated naphthalene derivative. Subsequently, the naphthalene derivative was converted into a naphthalyne, and then a [4+2] cycloaddition of another thiophene S-oxide provided decaarylanthracenes with nine different aryl groups.

Essential oils distilled from the bark of Massoia aromatica Becc. (Masoyi) has been known from our previous research as a potential towards both and states. This study aims to determine essential oil’s mechanism of action towards Candida ATCC 10231. Observation of the mechanism towards C. was performed by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) following the essential oil application in sub-minimum inhibition concentration, in comparison to untreated cells as the control. Considering that both and of C. were influenced, the effect on production was also observed using thin layer chromatography of the microbial . Following SEM and TEM results, the effect on membrane permeability seems to play a role in the activity. To support the result, an experiment using influx Propidium Iodide Test was performed. TLC and GC-MS analysis showed that C-10 is a major constituent of oil. Observation of C. cells by using SEM showed cell shrinkage, which may be due to disruption in membrane cell permeability. TEM confirmed the membrane cell disruption, which causes cytoplasmic leakage. The result of the iodide influx test confirmed the damage to membrane permeability. The decrease in production was observed, which may play a role in the activity of the essential oil.

Despite the importance of mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation (FAO) in cancer metabolism, the biological mechanisms responsible for the FAO in cancer and therapeutic intervention based on catabolic metabolism are not well defined. In this study, we observe that Snail (SNAI1), a key transcriptional repressor of epithelial–mesenchymal transition, enhances catabolic FAO, allowing pro-survival of breast cancer cells in a starved environment. Mechanistically, Snail suppresses mitochondrial ACC2 (ACACB) by binding to a series of E-boxes located in its proximal promoter, resulting in decreased malonyl-CoA level. Malonyl-CoA being a well-known endogenous inhibitor of fatty acid transporter carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 (CPT1), the suppression of ACC2 by Snail activates CPT1-dependent FAO, generating ATP and decreasing NADPH consumption. Importantly, combinatorial pharmacologic inhibition of pentose phosphate pathway and FAO with clinically available drugs efficiently reverts Snail-mediated metabolic reprogramming and suppresses in vivo metastatic progression of breast cancer cells. Our observations provide not only a mechanistic link between epithelial–mesenchymal transition and catabolic rewiring but also a novel catabolism-based therapeutic approach for inhibition of cancer progression.
Unfair Termination Review During Probationary Period
Authors: Ismail Omed A.
Published: June 2020

Probation is a trial period to test a new employee for a particular position. It is commonplace for many employers to stipulate that the contract begins with probation based on a mutual agreement with the employee. During the probationary period, more flexible standards are given to review unfair termination. Notwithstanding, a degree of protection insofar as it safeguards employees from the risk of unfair termination shall be granted. Article 37 in the Iraqi Labour Code No. 37 of 2015 permits the employer to test the employee for a maximum of three months if the latter has no professional certificate. The same article empowers the employer to terminate the contract if the employee has failed in the suitability test without setting any standards for such a test. In reviewing cases arising on the basis of unfair termination claims, the judiciary in some developed countries has come up with basic standards of the suitability test. This paper, therefore, attempts to examine Article 37 in the Iraqi Labour Code in light of the new judiciary trends and finally suggests redrafting the mentioned article to be more compatible with the rights of contractual parties.
Rural Landscape Signatures: the interconnectedness of place, culture and ecosystems
Authors: Marques Bruno , Baker Alison
Published: June 2020

Aotearoa-New Zealand’s legal, ecological and social perspectives are composed of combined Pākehā (NZ European) and Māori identities, values, perspectives and traditions. These two very different cultural perspectives are reflected in the conversations and dialogues occurring with regards to the landscape, and also in the lands forms and features itself. The separation between traditional Māori values and prevailing European developments and design approaches promotes regional landscapes that lack place and a sense of place within the wider Aotearoa-New Zealand context. South Wairarapa, in Aotearoa-New Zealand’s lower North Island, presents such a collision; the land bears the imprints of its colonising rural pedigree, and blatantly and unashamedly disregards the undeniable Indigenous Māori connection. This paper explores how landscape architecture can overlay past cultural conversations to restructure and enhance the presence of a defined regional and cultural identity and therefore promote a re-emergence of placed identity. Cultural signatures are written onto the landscape to be read and interpreted, and can be re-written, corrected and modified so to further reflect Indigenous and intrinsic connectedness with one’s landscape and its associated processes. The design, management and development of rural regional landscapes can evidence cultural values and landscape heritages while maintaining their obvious need for economic and regional prosperity, and sustainability. The apparent disconnect most modern populations have with their landscape is palpable internationally; the processes and management techniques of old are insufficient. There is a need in Aotearoa-New Zealand for an alternative approach to regional planning and design practices, which evidence our cultural pedigrees. Prominent landscape signatures should be reworked, new ones written, and the old rewritten, to create an inter-relatedness and interconnectedness between humans and ecosystems to protect past places and placements, enhance new ones, and promote the sustainable management and stewardship of the landscape.
Whispering tales: using augmented reality to enhance cultural landscapes and indigenous values
Authors: Marques Bruno , McIntosh Jacqueline , Carson Hannah
Published: June 2020

© The Author(s) 2019. Increasingly, our built and natural environments are becoming hybrids of real and digital entities where objects, buildings and landscapes are linked online in websites, blogs and texts. In the case of Aotearoa New Zealand, modern lifestyles have put Māori Indigenous oral narratives at risk of being lost in a world dominated by text and digital elements. Intangible values, transmitted orally from generation to generation, provide a sense of identity and community to Indigenous Māori as they relate and experience the land based on cultural, spiritual, emotion, physical and social values. Retaining the storytelling environment through the use of augmented reality, this article extends the biophysical attributes of landscape through embedded imagery and auditory information. By engaging with Ngāti Kahungunu ki Wairarapa, a design approach has been developed to illustrate narratives through different media, in a way that encourages a deeper and broader bicultural engagement with landscape.

Published: June 2020

Introduction. The article analyzes the process of digitalization of modern education. The relevance of the study is determined by the special role of education in the life of modern society, based on the principles and values of the post-industrial era. The quality of human potential and people's readiness to face natural and social challenges largely depend on the effectiveness of the education system. In the process of improving national education, modern technologies are becoming more and more important every year, the introduction of which contributes to the modernization and development of education, as well as improving the quality of training of future specialists and bringing education closer to science. At the same time, such technologies require a review of existing approaches to educational activities, as well as an analysis of their impact on society and individual social groups. In this regard, the study of the digitalization of education and its social consequences is a very relevant area of research. The purpose of this study is to identify the main problems and determine the prospects for digitalization in education.Materials and methods. To achieve this goal, we used methods of dialectics of social cognition, analysis of philosophical, sociological, and pedagogical literature, and synthesis and modeling of socio-cultural processes.Results. The conclusions identify the main problems of digitalization of education: the dehumanization of educational, and then all other social relations, the possible deepening of the crisis of people's intellectual culture, their ability to create, the growth of pragmatism and individualism based on the values of personal comfort and selfish consumption. Prospects for the development of digitalization in the education system are outlined: instrumental - equipping educational institutions with high-quality software, information systems that provide access to educational resources, the introduction of information (distance) technologies, online learning, changing requirements for teachers and students, the formation of new organizational educational structures, inevitable changes in the usual forms and methods of training and value-semantic – finding a harmonious unity with the best traditions of domestic education.Discussion and Conclusions. These conclusions are aimed at solving practical issues related to the implementation of the state policy of digitalization of various spheres of public relations. They can help coordinate the efforts of scientists, politicians, and civil society institutions to promote the socio-economic and cultural development of our society. The results obtained allow us to approach the fundamental problems of managing the cultural policy of modern society more objectively and meaningfully. They are designed to stimulate the creation of new forms of culture based on the priorities of harmonizing national cultural characteristics and the specifics of the world's techno-scientific processes.

Authors: Haitan О. , Nazarov О.
Published: June 2020

The paper describes a hybrid approach to solving of the automated timetabling problem in higher educational institution based on the ant colony optimization, the genetic algorithm, and the Nelder–Mead method. The ant colony method is the basis of this algorithm, which forms the initial population for the genetic algorithm. The combination of this method with the genetic algorithm and the Nelder–Mead method reduces time of the convergence of an algorithm and eliminates the strong dependence of the results on the initial search parameters, which usually are selected experimentally. The Nelder–Mead method is used to find the parameters of the ant colony optimization method. Use of the genetic algorithm allows for reducing of algorithm running time and increasing of global optimum finding probability. The educational process timetabling in higher school is an important component of the educational process assurance system, since the schedule quality determines the comfort of the educational process participants and its quality and effectiveness. Therefore, the development of methods for computer-aided timetable generation is an important challenge. The subject of study is adaptive methods of automated university timetabling. The objective of the work is development of a hybrid approach to addressing the problem of automated timetabling in university. The results are development and research of a hybrid method and software for university timetabling that been implemented this method

Published: June 2020

The study examined the producer-consumer prices and marketing structure of the chickpeas in Turkey, with a focus on the production-consumption, foreign trade, price fluctuations and marketing between the years 2003-2017. Despite the reduction in acreage and production rates in Turkey, an increase was observed in the production. In this study, marketing margins of chickpea are calculated according to current and real prices (2017=100). Producer and consumer chain indexes are also calculated according to current prices and compared with annual inflation rates. In fifteen years, the average yield was determined as 113 kg da-1, and the average consumption per person was 6.5 kg year. In fifteen years, the producer earned from 1 kg chickpea production increased by 55% and the amount paid by the consumer increased by 86%. In the fifteen-year period, prices have been in real favor for the producers and against the consumer. The model related to chickpea production function was estimated and agricultural real worker price was found to be effective on chickpea production.

Authors: PIRLAK Lütfi , ÇINAR Mustafa
Published: June 2020

In this study, the effects of Agrobacterium rubi A-18 and Bacillus OSU-142 bacterial strains alone and in combination with 1000, 2000, 4000 ppm IBA on rooting of Carrizo citrange and Troyer citrange citrus rootstock in softwood, semi-hardwood and hardwood cuttings were investigated. In the case of IBA solution, Agrobacterium rubi A-18 and Bacillus OSU-142 were prepared in solution at a concentration of 1x109 bacteria / ml and applied to cuttings of citrus. Application were performed in the mist propagation system. Cuttings kept in the fogging environment for 3 months removed at the end of this period, and their rooting rates (%), callus formation rates (%) and survival rates (%) determined. Based on the results of the study, the survival rates and callus formation rates of the cuttings of citrus were generally high at the end of the rooting period. The highest rooting rates in Carrizo citrange cuttings were detected in 4000 ppm IBA and OSU-142 + A-18 (13.33%) treatments for softwood cuttings, 4000 ppm IBA + OSU-142 (20.00%) in semi-hardwood and hardwood cuttings. In the Troyer citrange, OSU-142 + A-18 (6.67%) treatments for softwood cuttings, in 1000 ppm IBA for semi-hardwood, and in 4000 ppm IBA (13.33%) and 1000 ppm IBA treatment for hardwood cuttings, 2000 ppm IBA and OSU-142 (13.33%) the highest rooting has been treatments. According to the cuttings pick-up period, the rooting rates of Carrizo citrange are not different, at the Troyer citrange in the semi-hardwood and hardwood cuttings was higher. As a result, it could be state that plant growth promoting bacteria and IBA applications have not effect on rooting in the softwood, semi-hardwood and hardwood cuttings of the Carrizo citrange and Troyer citrange citrus rootstocks.

Notions of Nature, Notions of Humanity
Authors: Hicks Rebecca
Published: June 2020

The history of Canadian parks systems, within the realm of environmental history, has been deeply affected by contemporary social, environmental, and political beliefs. The rhetoric of human domination over nature and the inherent separation of the two was entrenched throughout historical works on Canadian parks in the early to mid- twentieth century. The liberalization of history within the past forty years has served to shift this trend. The inclusion of scientific knowledge in historical research, the limitation of past prejudices and biases concerning nature and humanity, and the questioning of political policies affecting nature have aided in the growth of a body of historical research and interpretation that questions past perceptions of the natural. The historiographical exploration of parks history offers researchers an exciting opportunity to identify historical factors impacting the practice of environmental history while also discerning and encouraging future trends in environmental history. Using recent historical publications on Canadian parks history as examples, this paper seeks to both uncover the historical factors impacting past historical practice and acknowledge the major philosophical and practical shifts in historical practice that have fostered an exciting new body of work in environmental history. In questioning what it means to be human, what it means to be Canadian, and what the relationship between humanity and nature is and can be, increasingly nuanced historical work offers readers and historians new realms of exploration – both philosophically and practically.

MUPEL, singkatan dari Multimedia Peluang, merupakan multimedia pembelajaran matematika materi Peluang, berbasis etnomatematika, yang dikaitkan dengan jenis permainan tradisional yang sudah lama ditinggalkan di zaman modern ini. Jenis permainan tradisional yang dipilih adalah Congklak, atau dikenal dengan nama “Dakon” di kawasan Putat. Putat adalah salah satu nama desa pedalaman yang berada di lereng Gunung Klothok Kabupaten Kediri. Di dalam MUPEL terdapat beberapa menu utama, diantaranya Pendahuluan (pengenalan permainan Dakon), Materi, dan Uji Pemahaman. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menghasilkan Multimedia Peluang (MUPEL) yang valid, praktis, dan efektif. Metode penelitian yang digunakan untuk pengembangan multimedia ini adalah Research & Development dengan model pengembangan Plomp (modifikasi) sehingga tahap pengembangan multimedia hanya sampai pada tahap pengujian, evaluasi, dan revisi, tidak sampai pada tahap implementasi. Adapun langkah penelitian yang dilakukan meliputi: tahap investigasi awal (preliminary investigation), tahap perancangan (design), tahap realisasi/konstruksi (realization/construction), dan tahap pengujian, evaluasi, dan revisi (test, evaluation, and revision). Tingkat kevalidan Multimedia Peluang (MUPEL) secara isi 81% dengan kriteria “valid” dari ahli multimedia dan konstruk 86% dengan kriteria “sangat valid” dari ahli materi dan 83% dengan kriteria “valid” dari ahli bahasa, tingkat kepraktisan 83% termasuk kriteria “praktis”, dan tingkat keefektifan 88,89% termasuk kriteria “efektif”.

Kemampuan koneksi matematis merupakan aspek penting dalam pembelajaran matematika. Aspek koneksi matematis diperlukan dalam pemecahan masalah matematika. Meskipun aspek koneksi matematis penting, namun faktanya berdasarkan studi awal yang dilakukan pada 28 siswa SMA di Kediri, lebih dari 70% siswa memiliki kemampuan koneksi matematis yang rendah. Terkait hal tersebut, salah satu faktor yang mempengaruhi adalah kecerdasan emosional siswa. Untuk itu, akan dilakukan penelitian kualitatif deskriptif pada 30 siswa SMA di Kediri. Dari 30 siswa diambil dua siswa dengan kecerdasan emosional tinggi dan rendah melalui tes kecerdasan emosional siswa. Selanjutnya subjek diberikan tes kemampuan koneksi matematis dan dilihat kredibilitas datanya melalui wawancara. Hasil analisis data menunjukkan bahwa kemampuan koneksi matematis siswa yang memiliki kecerdasan emosional tinggi dalam memecahkan masalah adalah sebagai berikut:  (1) dapat memahami masalah dengan mengidentifikasi fakta, konsep dan prinsip matematika dari luar bidang matematika, (2) membuat perencanaan penyelesaian masalah dengan menemukan keterkaitan antar prinsip matematika (3) melaksanakan rencana penyelesaian masalah menggunakan hubungan antara fakta dan prinsip matematika dalam masalah yang diselesaikian dan (4) memeriksa kembali penyelesaian menggunakan keterkaitan proses dan prosedur serta operasi hitung untuk menyelesaikan permasalahan di luar matematika. Sedangkan siswa dengan kecerdasan emosional rendah meliputi: (1) dapat memahami masalah dengan mengidentifikasi fakta, konsep dan prinsip matematika dari luar bidang matematika, (2) membuat perencanaan penyelesaian masalah yaitu dengan menemukan keterkaitan antar prinsip antar matematika (3) tidak dapat melaksanakan rencana penyelesaian masalah menggunakan hubungan antara fakta dan prinsip matematika dan (4) tidak memeriksa kembali penyelesaian menggunakan keterkaitan proses dan prosedur serta operasi hitung untuk menyelesaikan permasalahan di luar matematika
