Litsea deccanensis Gamble, a vital wet-season blooming tree in the Lauraceae family, faces a dual threat from the Redbay ambrosia beetle (Xyleborus glabratus) and the Molytinae weevil (Alcidodes porrectirostris). This study, conducted in the Western Ghats, India, explores the impact of these pests on L. deccanensis, a commercially significant species used in agarbatti production. Stem bark exploitation, coupled with laurel wilt disease, contributes to the tree's declining population. These stem borers cause considerable damage to both seedlings and young saplings, and their influence extends to infestations in mature trees. The Molytinae weevils primarily target seeds, posing a significant challenge for the storage and production of planting stock. This dual pest threat jeopardizes the natural regeneration of L. deccanensis, contributing to population decline in the wild. Recognizing the urgent need for conservation, this study marks a crucial step in developing proactive strategies to manage L. deccanensis effectively within its natural habitat, safeguarding this commercially valuable species from further decline.

Published: August 2024

The relative expression of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) Cry1Ac and Cry2Ab toxins from seeds of Bt Bollgard II® cotton was quantified using Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assays (ELISA) method. The ELISA technique involves binding a sample or calibrator to a solid-phase antibody, forming a "sandwich complex" with an enzyme-labeled antibody. The resulting enzyme substrate reaction produces a product proportional to the antigen concentration. The study reveals that each gram of Bt Bollgard II® seed powder contains 3.25 μg Cry1Ac and 182.32 μg Cry2Ab, with Cry2Ab expression 56 times higher. Variability in Cry protein expression is influenced by factors like temperature, genetic background, and plant maturity. The research emphasizes the importance of Bt plants, particularly Bt Bollgard II® seed powder as a valuable source for studying insect responses to combined Cry1Ac + Cry2Ab expression in bioassay studies.

Authors: ROHMAWATI UUN
Published: August 2024

Pekalongan is one of the largest batik producing cities in Indonesia. In general, batik industry waste is directly disposed of into the environment, causing pollution and being hazardous to health. One alternative is to utilize local fungi (indigenous) because they produce laccase enzymes that can decompose dyes. The purpose of this study was to isolate and select fungi producing laccase enzymes from the environment contaminated with batik waste in Pekalongan. The methods used were qualitative screening using tannic acid, laccase enzyme activity testing, and macroscopic and microscopic observations. The results of this study obtained 127 fungal isolates, but only 27 fungal isolates formed yellow to brown zones during qualitative screening. In the laccase enzyme activity test, 21 fungal isolates were obtained that could produce laccase enzyme activity. Five potential fungi producing the highest laccase enzyme activity were taken, namely isolates KByT1, 33ByL1, B BrT1, 58 JL2, and 13 ByL1 (laccase enzyme activity in sequence, namely 19.82 U/ml, 6.08 U/mL, 5.98 U/mL, 3.89 U/mL and 3.79 U/mL). Isolates KByT1 and B BrT1 belong to the genus Trichoderma, isolate 33ByL1 belongs to the genus Talaromyces, isolate 58 JL2 belongs to the genus Fusarium and isolate 13 ByL1 belongs to the genus Aspergillus.

Authors: Armstrong-Hough M. , Shelby T. , Ggita J. , Nangendo J. , Gupta A.J. , Davis J.L. , Katamba A.
Published: August 2024

BACKGROUND
Measuring stigma for TB and HIV in households undergoing contact investigation for TB is critical for understanding its impacts on health behaviours and identifying opportunities for intervention. However, standardised measurements
for TB-HIV stigma in household contact investigations are limited.

METHODS
We adapted and validated a household stigma scale in Uganda. This involved field testing measures from another setting with 163 household contacts of newly diagnosed
TB patients, conducting cognitive interviews with seven household contacts, adapting scale items using cognitive interview data, and retesting the adapted scales in a random sample of 60 contacts. We assessed inter-item covariance and performed factor analysis to select the final scale items.

RESULTS
In
whole-scale factor analysis, no cross-loading of items with scores ≥0.32 was found after the elimination of items based on covariance and symmetry. All TB items were loaded onto a single factor with scores ≥0.5, and all but one HIV item was loaded onto a second factor with scores ≥0.5.
The final subscale internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha) was 0.92 for TB and 0.89 for HIV.

CONCLUSIONS
The adapted TB-HIV stigma scale demonstrated acceptable psychometric properties and is substantially shorter and easier to
administer than previous scales, making it suitable for programmatic research and evaluation.

Published: August 2024

This study explores the critical role of adaptive strategies in maintaining the growth and competitiveness of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in dynamic market environments. MSMEs significantly contribute to employment creation, innovation, and overall economic development but face unique challenges such as limited resources, market access, and vulnerability to market changes. Adaptive strategies like product diversification, digital transformation, and strategic partnerships have been found effective in enhancing MSME performance. Product diversification allows MSMEs to enter new market segments and reduce dependence on a single product line, while digital transformation improves operational efficiency and market reach. Strategic partnerships provide access to previously unavailable resources like technology and distribution networks. However, the implementation of these strategies is often hampered by financial constraints, lack of technological knowledge, and resistance to change. The study also highlights the importance of continuous learning and innovation for MSMEs to stay competitive. Continuous learning updates the knowledge and skills of MSMEs in line with industry developments, while innovation enables the development of new products or services that meet changing market needs. Case studies presented in the research demonstrate successful adoption of adaptive strategies by MSMEs to address challenges and leverage market opportunities. The findings offer practical insights for MSME owners, policymakers, and academics on the importance of adaptive strategies in navigating market uncertainties and achieving sustainable growth. The study also provides recommendations for supporting MSMEs in adopting adaptive strategies through initiatives such as training programs, digital transformation funding, and strategic partnership schemes.

Published: August 2024

Introduction: Surface electromyography (sEMG) is valuable for assessing respiratory muscle activity, but the influence of electromagnetic fields can impair the accuracy of the signals. This study aims to compare the Root Mean Square (RMS) values of sEMG signals from respiratory muscles in COVID-19 patients receiving oxygen therapy in the ICU before and after digital filtering. Methods: This exploratory analysis is part of a cross-sectional study registered on ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT05572853). sEMG signals from the sternocleidomastoid, scalenus, diaphragm, and rectus abdominis muscles were recorded in COVID-19 patients receiving low-flow oxygen therapy. The RMS data were analyzed and processed using Scilab 6.1.1 software before and after applying a filter with a 60 Hz notch and a passband between 20-500 Hz. Results: 71 patients with a mean age of 55 ± 14 years, predominantly male (73.2%), were included. Muscle’s activity remained unchanged after signal filtering, showing higher RMS intensity (pre-filter/post-filter) for the scalene (14.0 ± 8.6 / 8.5 ± 6.2), sternocleidomastoid (12.0 ± 8.8 / 6.8 ± 7.8), diaphragm (11.7 ± 8.1 / 5.4 ± 7.1), and rectus abdominis (10.4 ± 4.7 / 3.1 ± 1.9) muscles. RMS attenuation was significant for all muscles (p < 0.001), with no agreement between pre- and post-filtering from Bland-Altman analysis. Conclusions: The applied digital filter attenuated RMS values while maintaining the same respiratory muscle activation, enhancing signal identification by reducing noise.

Authors: Barros Geórgia Fernandes , Oliveira Ana Maria Hermeto Camilo de
Published: August 2024

O trabalho objetiva estudar teórica e empiricamente a mensuração e a distribuição espacial de oportunidades no mercado de trabalho por meio da construção de um índice de igualdade de oportunidades para os municípios brasileiros nos anos de 2000 e 2010, buscando compreender a distribuição das oportunidades de trabalho no espaço brasileiro e suas múltiplas dimensões ao longo do tempo. Contribui para o desenvolvimento do conceito de igualdade de oportunidades ao propor uma análise mais agregada refletida na esfera municipal e destaca-se pela abordagem multidimensional proposta, que abarca os lados da oferta, da demanda e de acesso a serviços para analisar o mercado de trabalho. É feita,ademais, uma análise que considera possíveis transbordamentos espaciais das oportunidades, por meio da utilização da Análise Exploratória de Dados Espaciais. A hipótese central é a de que a distribuição das oportunidades no mercado de trabalho é desigual no espaço brasileiro, tendo se reduzido ao longo do tempo.  Os resultados apontam para a existência de concentração espacial dos índices considerados, e, em especial, para existência de padrões regionais de municípios com elevado acesso e realização de oportunidades que se relacionam às oportunidades presentes nos municípios vizinhos e vice-versa. Ao se considerar a autocorrelação espacial local para a variação de cada índice, as maiores taxas de crescimento ocorrem nas regiões Nordeste e Norte do país, para todos os índices, com exceção do Índice de Funcionamento do Mercado de Trabalho, cuja evolução reflete um padrão de confirmação da polarização da demanda por trabalho nas regiões Sul e Sudeste.
Inibição e desejo na anorexia: um estudo psicanalítico sobre a busca pela satisfação no nada
Authors: Simas Maria Clara Rodrigues dos Santos , Barros Rogério de Andrade
Published: August 2024

O transtorno da anorexia nervosa tem sido reconhecido como um problema de saúde pública afetando, principalmente, jovens mulheres. Embora seja frequentemente associado a questões estéticas e modernas, sua presença na história desafia essa visão. A anorexia persiste como um tema relevante, com incidências significativas na sociedade contemporânea, como evidenciado por estudos epidemiológicos. O entendimento contemporâneo da anorexia destaca sua complexa etiologia, que combina fatores biológicos, psicológicos e socioculturais. A valorização cultural do corpo magro e dos comportamentos de dieta e exercício, bem como a glorificação da anorexia como um estilo de vida em certos círculos, destacam a necessidade de uma análise mais profunda desse fenômeno. Por essa razão, no presente artigo, investigamos como a Psicanálise pode contribuir para a compreensão da anorexia, articulando com o conceito psicanalítico da inibição. Inicialmente apresentamos uma revisão bibliográfica e histórica da anorexia, também apresentado uma revisão da literatura de Freud em seus conceitos de inibição, sintoma e angústia. Posteriormente, resgatamos esse tripé freudiano com a leitura de Lacan, investigando como a inibição pode ser chave para a leitura da anorexia, em um resgate de ISA de Freud em articulação com o RSI. Por fim, concluímos que há a hipótese de que a inibição é uma chave para a compreensão da anorexia.

Bu araştırmanın amacı Mükemmeliyetçi İklim Ölçeği-Spor’un (MİÖ-S) Türkçe versiyonunun yapı, yakınsak ve ıraksak geçerliği ile güvenirliğini test etmektir. MİÖ-S sporcuların algısına göre antrenörün oluşturduğu mükemmeliyetçi iklimi değerlendiren, beklenti, eleştiri, kontrol, koşullu kabul ve kaygı alt boyutlarını içeren bir ölçektir. Araştırmaya 149 erkek 97 kadın olmak üzere toplam 246 sporcu katılmıştır (Xyaş=13.62±2.18). Veri toplama aracı olarak MİÖ-S, Antrenör Kaynaklı Destekleyici ve Kısıtlayıcı Güdüsel İklim Ölçeği ve Sporcular için Antrenör Davranışlarını Değerlendirme Ölçeği’nin olumlu ve olumsuz antrenör davranışı alt boyutları kullanılmıştır. Ölçeğin yapı geçerliği için doğrulayıcı faktör analizi (DFA), yakınsak ve ıraksak geçerliği için Pearson korelasyon analizi ile nomolojik ağ analizi yapılmıştır. Güvenirlik için Cronbach alfa ve bileşik güvenirlik katsayıları hesaplanmıştır. Birinci düzey (S-Bχ2/sd=2.22, CFI=0.904, TLI=0.901, RMSEA=0.077, SRMR=0.060) ve ikinci düzey (S-Bχ2/df=2.217, CFI=0.901, TLI=0.900, RMSEA=0.077, SRMR=0.062) DFA sonuçlarına göre kabul edilebilir uyum indekslerine ulaşılmıştır. Maddelere ait faktör yükleri 0.50 ile 0.87 arasındadır. Yakınsak geçerlik için yapılan analize göre MİÖ-S’nin tüm alt boyutları ego iklimi, kontrol iklimi ve olumsuz antrenör davranışları ile pozitif yönde anlamlı ilişkilidir. Iraksak geçerlik için yapılan nomolojik ağ analizi ve açımlayıcı grafik analizine göre MİÖ-S’nin alt boyutları, Antrenör Kaynaklı Destekleyici ve Kısıtlayıcı Güdüsel İklim Ölçeği ile olumlu ve olumsuz antrenör davranışlarından ayrı yapılardır. Ölçeğin Cronbach alfa ve bileşik güvenirlik katsayıları ise 0.71 ile 0.85 arasında değişmektedir. Araştırma bulguları ölçeğin Türkçe formunun yapı, yakınsak ve ıraksak geçerliği ile güvenirliğini desteklemektedir. Tüm bulgular ölçeğin Türkçe formunun adolesan sporcuların algısına göre antrenörün oluşturduğu mükemmeliyetçi iklimi değerlendirmek için kullanılabileceği söylenebilir.
