Core Ideas

Dry pea yield, protein, and resistant starch varied greatly across Montana.

Yield and protein were mainly determined by environments.

Resistant starch is controlled by genetics to a great extent.

Effects of drought index, growth period, seed size, and seed weight on yield, protein, and starch were analyzed.

Pea (Pisum sativum L.) has long been an important component of the human diet, providing an excellent source of protein. In addition to its protein, pea starch, especially resistant starch (RS), has received an extensive attention in food industries in recent years. We evaluated nine pea cultivars varying in cotyledon color, grain weight, maturity group, and phenology planted at five locations with diverse climatic conditions across Montana in 2013 and 2014 to assess genetic and environmental factors affecting their yield, protein, RS, and total starch (TS). Grain yield varied from 982 to 5951 kg ha−1, RS content ranged from 5 to 53 g kg−1, and protein from 159 to 251 g kg−1. Statistical analysis showed that environment was the most important driving factor in grain yield, protein, and TS determination whereas RS content was mainly determined by cultivar. Drought at all phenological stages reduced pea yield and different cultivars tended to respond differently. Yield was positively correlated with protein, implying a potential to select/breed a cultivar with higher yield and protein. Protein was negatively correlated with TS, thus protein‐ or starch‐type cultivars may be bred for different end users. Compared to other cultivars tested, DS Admiral was the most promising one with above average yield, protein, and RS.

Published: May 2017

Core Ideas

Horses preferred winter wheat, annual ryegrass, and spring wheat.

Annual ryegrass, spring oat, and winter barley were the highest yielding species.

Spring oat, spring barley, and spring wheat had little to no regrowth.

Winter wheat and winter rye consistently had higher forage nutritive values.

Annual ryegrass can extend the grazing season or provide emergency forage for horses.

Annual grasses such as oat (Avena sativa L.), wheat (Tricum aestivum L.), and barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) can serve as alternative forage but little research exists under horse (Equus caballus) grazing. The objectives were to evaluate annual cool‐season grasses for preference, yield, and forage nutritive value under horse grazing during the summer and fall in Minnesota. Spring‐planted grasses included spring barley, spring oat, spring wheat, winter wheat, and annual ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum L.). Summer‐planted grasses included the same five species plus spring forage oat, winter barley, and winter rye (Secale cereal L.). Beginning in June and September of each year, horses grazed grasses at a vegetative stage. Plots were mowed, allowed to regrow, and grazed again. Although spring oat, spring forage oat, and winter barley were often among the highest yielding grasses (≥3.0 Mg ha−1), they were also among the least preferred grasses (≤32% removal). Annual ryegrass, winter wheat, and spring wheat were among the most preferred grasses (≥35% removal). Among these highly preferred grasses, annual ryegrass was typically higher yielding (≥2.7 Mg ha−1), while winter wheat and spring wheat were among the lowest yielding species (≤4.7 Mg ha−1). All grasses contained ≥130 g kg−1 crude protein (CP), ≤610 g kg−1 neutral detergent fiber (NDF), ≤220 g kg−1 nonstructural carbohydrates (NSC), and ≥2.02 Mcal kg−1 equine digestible energy (DE). Annual ryegrass appears to be a viable forage alternative to maximize yield, preference and forage nutritive concentration in horse pastures.

Core Ideas

With the reduction in the inter‐row spacing under the same target planting density, the final plant density and kernel numbers per area were increased.

The more uniform planting improved the root growth of maize at the earlier growth stages of the crop.

The increase in planting uniformity increased the radiation interception of the canopy.

The yield of summer maize was improved with the increase in the planting uniformity.

Crop production is often affected by resource limitations, especially water in semiarid areas. This study was conducted to identify whether the changes in inter and intra row spacing could improve soil water availability and radiation interception for maize (Zea mays L) through adjusting spatial distribution of root systems and canopy morphology. A 6‐yr field study (2011–2016) was conducted to examine the impacts of five planting patterns on summer maize growth and yields in the North China Plain (NCP), which included two narrow‐wide row spacings (20–100 cm, R20‐100; 40–80 cm, R40‐80), two equal‐row spacings (60 cm, R60; 50 cm, R50) and equidistance both in row spacing and in plant distance in a row (38 cm, R38). The results showed that the more uniform planting increased the active soil volume taken by root system, therefore, increased the soil water availability to plants under limited water supply condition. The more uniform planting also increased the light capture at vegetative stages which accelerated the biomass accumulation of the crop. Grain yield was 6% higher under R38 than that of R20‐100 in a very wet season up to 25% higher in a very dry season. The improvement in yield was related to the increased ear numbers per area at harvest in dry seasons and the increased kernel numbers per ear in wet seasons. Reducing inter‐row spacing and increasing intra‐row spacing had positive impacts on the yield of summer maize related to either the increased seedling establishment or the increased seed numbers per ear.

Published: May 2017

This research is a case study belonging to the historical research. The data were taken from the Department of Natural Product Buying and Financial and Controlling XYZ CORP. XYZ CORP is a manufacturing enterprise and exporter of clove oil and its derivatives to the world with a market share of about 55% of the world market. This study aims to empirically examine and study the ethical behavior of suppliers in the ever-changing business environment. The analysis tool used is the Mann Whitney test with SPSS 17.0 software. Based on the survey results it was revealed that for natural raw materials, the average purchase price between the rainy season and the dry season does not differ significantly, but the cost of purchase in the dry season, and the rainy season varies significantly. In this study, the price does not affect the acquisition of raw materials purchased from suppliers. The results of this study also obtained empirical evidence that the trading patterns of natural raw materials are strongly influenced by the behavior or ethics of suppliers, in addition to weather factors or uncertain climate.

Current Concepts in Radial Club Hand
Authors: Takagi Takehiko , Seki Atsuhito , Takayama Shinichiro , Watanabe Masahiko
Published: May 2017

Radial club hand is a complex congenital abnormality of the radial or pre-axial border of the upper extremity. It has a wide range of phenotypes from hypoplasia of the thumb to complete absence of the radius and the first ray. Centralization with tendon transfer is a popular method for maintaining the correct position of radial club hand. On the other hand, various corrections were devised,e.g. radialization after distraction to emphasize the fact that the head of the ulna is positioned under the radial carpal bones and is no longer placed in a slot in the center of the carpus, microvascular epiphysis transfer, gradual correction using Ilizarov method, for Bayne Type III or Type IV. We should pay attention to the recurrence of radial deformity or circulatory impairment with the tension. Lunate excision or ulnar shortening can be selected for tension-free correction. Radialization can be indicated for avoiding the recurrence of radial flexion. However, we should pay attention of the radial protrusion of the ulnar head. For avoiding the recurrence of radial deformity or circulatory impairment, gradual correction using Ilizarov external fixation can be indicated, especially in the cases with severe radial deviation or with short forearm. In the mild cases, Bayne Type I or Type II, radius lengthening is accompanied by a soft-tissue distraction or release at the ulnar carpal joint with keeping wrist and forearm motion without producing growth plate damage.

Keynes’ Unscientific Theory of Consumption Function and Its False Policy Implication for the Multiplier Effect: A Review of Disaggregated Evidence
Authors: Hashemzadeh Nozar , Farhat Dan
Published: May 2017

The assumption that the Marginal Propensity to Consume (MPC) and the resulting multiplier are fairly stable at the aggregate level irrespective of the time frame, commonly articulated in some post-Keynesian literature and introductory macroeconomic texts and universally used as the building block of fiscal policy decisions, are false concepts. In this enquiry, we examine the robustness of this proposition using disaggregated disposable income to demonstrate that neo-Keynesians’ generalization that consumers in different income brackets would react similarly to a change in income is refuted by the weight of historical evidence. We derive estimates of the MPC in the short-run and the long-run using recent data from the US Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA). We show that the whole is not the sum of its parts when it comes to the MPC. This insight should give teachers a more accurate description of short-run consumption behavior. Our objective is to extend students’ understanding of the complexity of the economy and reveal that there are many intricate mysteries that are yet to be expounded (Note 1).

The administration of anesthetics is crucial when considering performing clinical examinations and even carry out treatments in medicine of reptiles. Accordingly, the objective was to test different protocols of etomidate in anesthetic Phrynops geoffroanus species. To this end, the turtles were divided into groups of ten and anesthetized with etomidate different protocols: group 1 (G1) received 1.0 mg / kg IV, group 2 (G2) received 1.5 mg / kg IV group 3 (G3) received 3.0 mg / kg IV. The parameters were observed in intervals of 5, 10, 20, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 150, 180 minutes and that time zero was considered the time of drug administration. The parameters were assessed: mobility, relaxation, handling, response to stimulus in the thoracic and pelvic and heart rate. For this investigation were assigned scores of 1, 2 and 3 being low, medium and high response to stimuli respectively. The anesthetized animals were considered when their scores totaled 11. The results were evaluated using ANOVA (BANZATTO; KRONKA, 1995) and Tukey's test at 5% probability and Friedman. Thus observed that etomidate at a dose of 1.0 mg/Kg and 1.5 mg/Kg are recommended for situations requiring satisfactory sedation in Phrynops geoffoanu as clinical procedures and collection of biological sample at optimum temperature.

This trial evaluated the use of diet with no forage for weaned calves, based on no processed mature corn. Seven calves were weaned at 67 days of age and then allocated to a diet composed exclusively of concentrate based on whole corn grain and soybean meal for 56 days. The daily body weight gain was 0.901 ± .213 kg and dry matter intake was 2.80 ± 0.32 kg. Feed efficiency was 0.320 ± 0061 kg of gain/kg of dry matter intake. Digestibility of dry matter in the total digestive tract was 75.8 ± 10.7% of intake, intake as a percentage of body weight was on average 2.39% during the determination of digestibility. The correlation coefficient between the intake and digestibility was -0.70. The fecal loss of whole corn seeds in feces was 1.03% of the grain consumed and was not correlated to the digestibility of concentrate. There was no case of bloat or disturbance in locomotion, suggesting that ruminal acidosis was not a problem in these animals. Performance of post-weaning calves fed exclusively concentrate based on whole grain corn performance was satisfactory.

Egg production was evaluated in a line of meat-type quail undergoing selection for increased 21-day body weight, using random regression and compares the influence of heterogeneity of residual variance on estimated genetic parameters to the growth curve of meat quails. Six models were estimated, one for homogeneous residual variance and five for heterogeneous residual variance structures, established at intervals of 182, 112, 91, 56, or 28 days. An increase (P < 0.01) of the natural logarithm of the likelihood function, by increasing the number of heterogeneous classes was observed. The model that considered homogeneity of residual variances  was inadequate. Genetic variability was observed for egg weight with homogeneity of residual variance varying from .15 to  .32 and with heterogeneity varying from .16 to .38 in 13 partial (4-wk long) laying periods. Heritabilities for number of eggs laid and egg mass varied from .03 to .10 and .03 to .15, and from 0.01 to 0.15 and .01 to .20, respectively, with homogeneity and heterogeneity of residual variances. It is justifiable to include egg weight in the selection goals for meat-type quail. Low heritabilities values were found for egg number and egg mass but there are particular periods, especially from 99-126 days old and from 211-238 days old where selection could be effective. Peak production values for the three traits occurred between these periods.

Processes to Minimize Raw Materials Inventory Level in the Supply Chain

Producers are eager to implement their processes more effectively in order to minimize costs and to maximize profit. The primary purpose is to keep inventory value at the lowest possible rate to minimize costs. To this end, the investigated organization operates several processes. One of them is the so-called Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI), in which the supplier manages the inventory of the customer and the second is the consignment inventory processing, in which suppliers store goods at the customer location. The principal goal of this paper is to examine whether the application of these methods may result in cost-effective savings for the examined organization and if yes, to what extent. Is the level of cost saving sufficient to enable future application or re-introduction?

Authors: Asare Stephen Kwaku , Wright Arnold M.
Published: May 2017

We propose and test a model that links the antecedents of consultation between auditors and forensic specialists to the work performed and the overall effectiveness of the consultation. The antecedents are auditee, auditor, and forensic specialist related, while the work is related to risk assessment, risk responsiveness, and teamwork. A path model, based on a field survey of 57 experienced auditors, shows that forensic specialists' understanding of the client's business and engagement objectives is positively associated with risk assessments and effective teamwork, which, in turn, are positively associated with overall consultation effectiveness. Further, involving forensic specialists early in the engagement is associated with improved teamwork and risk responsiveness. Qualitative responses identify other factors, such as investment in joint extra-collaboration enterprises, which may moderate the association among the antecedents, work, and outcomes. A second survey clarifies the circumstances under which consultation enhances risk assessments, provides examples of unique procedures performed by the forensic specialists, and clarifies the effect of the consultation on cost and delays. Taken together, our findings provide important insights and implications for firm policy, regulatory standards, and future research.

Imagining Utopia, Sustaining Community. Autoethnographic Research and Queer Affective Pleasure
Authors: Whitney Elizabeth
Published: May 2017

For queers, the affects of pleasure and risk are intrinsically interrelated, and the practice of imagining utopia signifies the importance of community as a place where we come together to sustain and nurture ourselves. This essay explores the affective pleasure of queer worldmaking through community building in Finland from my perspective as a non-Finnish queer researcher. Taking pleasure in the freedom to experiment is at the very heart of being together, resisting heteronormativity, and visualizing alternative and utopian ways of worldmaking. While such acts are not necessarily unique to Finland, my experience as a queer feminist researcher and participant in Finnish queer communities was unique to me. Thus, I use autoethnography to discuss my insider/outsider experience of conducting research in Finland, as a queer feminist from the US my work adds to a growing body of autoethnographic scholarship that raises questions about cross-cultural perception and belonging, and offers new possibilities for queer methodologies.

Curtains Up! Shifting Emotional Styles in Gay Men's Venues Since the 1950s
Authors: Gammerl Benno
Published: May 2017

This opinion piece enquires into the history of male homosexuality in West Germany since the 1950s and focuses on the transition from the homophile bar to the gay disco as a prototypical meeting place for same-sex desiring men. Which emotional shifts did this spatial variation entail? Based on oral history interviews and gay magazines, the analysis explores intricate changes in queer everyday life beyond the all too simple supposition that closeted shame was supplanted by openly gay pride. In addition, the study shows on a methodological level that the allegedly antagonistic approaches in emotion research – constructionism, praxeology, affect-theory and phenomenology – can actually be fruitfully combined with each other, especially when it comes to analysing the interplay between spaces and feelings.

Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli kuvata suomalaisten tyttöjen ja poikien koulukiusaamisen japsykosomaattisen oireilun yleisyyttä sekä selvittää, miten koulukiusaaminen ja taustamuuttujatovat yhteydessä oireiluun. Taustatekijöinä olivat luokka-aste, koettu terveydentila, vanhempienosallistuminen koulunkäyntiin ja vanhempainiltaan sekä ystävät koulussa. Tutkimusaineistonakäytettiin peruskoulun 4.–6.-luokkalaisille tehtyä Koulun hyvinvointiprofiili -kyselyä lukuvuodelta2012–2013 (n=16 232). Kyselyyn vastanneista kiusaajia oli 1,4 %, kiusattuja 5,8 % ja kiusaajakiusattuja0,7 %. Pojat olivat kiusaajia ja kiusattuja tyttöjä useammin. Tytöillä oireilu oliyleisempää kuin pojilla. Vähintään kahta oiretta useasti lukukauden aikana esiintyi 27 % tytöistäja 21 % pojista. Kiusaamiseen osallistuneista kiusatut sekä kiusaaja-kiusatut oireilivat enitenverrattuna oppilaisiin, jotka eivät osallistuneet kiusaamiseen. Kiusattuna oleminen, huonoksi koettuterveys ja vanhempien vähäisempi osallistuminen lasten koulunkäyntiin olivat yhteydessä oireiluunmolemmilla sukupuolilla. Lasten erilaiset oireet tulisi havaita ja selvittää koulukiusaamisenmahdollisuus runsaasti oireilevilla lapsilla. Vanhempia tulisi myös kannustaa osallistumaan lastensaterveystarkastuksiin ja vanhempainiltoihin.

Post mortem epididymal sperm (ES) is an excellent source of germplasm for conservation of animal genetic resources. In this study,  the viability of post mortem ES from carabao after collection at ambient temperature (AT) and after 24 hr and 48 hr of storage at refrigeration temperature (RT) were evaluated. ES were collected through slicing of epididymides from 7 carabaos. The mean ES volume was 0.4 ml with sperm concentration of 2.5×109 cells/ml. The mean percentage livability of fresh ES, after 24 hr and 48 hr of storage at RT were 81.93%, 65.93% and 43.7%, respectively. The mean percentage abnormalities of fresh ES, after 24 hr and 48 hr of storage at RT were 44.15%, 38.5% and 43.47%, respectively. The mean percentage motility of fresh ES, after 24 hr and 48 hr of storage at RT were 60.0%, 50.0% and 17.24%, respectively, after analysis through conventional means. Through CASA, the mean percentage motility was observed to be lower significantly at 26.12%, 37.94% and 18.32% for fresh ES, after 24 hr and 48 hr of storage at RT, respectively. The mean progressive motility of fresh ES, after 24 hr and 48 hr storage at RT were 10.02%, 16.47% and 10.87%, respectively. The results suggest that ES potential for use in fertilization studies remained viable when used immediately or after storage at RT for the first 24 hr.

Appropriate holding conditions for post mortem testicles of goat to yield quality epididymal sperm (ES) as a source of genetic material for cryobanking and fertilization studies are lacking. In this study, the effect of storage time on the motility of ES from post mortem testicles maintained at 5°C was evaluated. In the laboratory, the cauda epididymides were excised from the testicles after 4 hr (G-1) and 24 hr (G-2) of holding time before collecting the sperm in a Tris-citrate buffered solution and evaluated using a CASA. Sperm motility profiling revealed a subpopulation of static, slow, motile and progressive ES. The proportion of static sperm in the control (16.97±6.21) and G-1 (21.53±5.60) were lower significantly than G-2 (36.13±5.05). The proportion of slow moving sperm was lower significantly than G-1 (23.31±3.57) and G-2 (25.45±3.32). The proportion of motile and progressive motile sperm decreases significantly (P<0.05) as the holding time increases at 78.46±4.64% (G-1) to 63.85±4.06 (G-2) and 45.53±8.89 (G-1) to 25.46±8.42 (G-2), respectively. The results showed that prolonged storage of post mortem testicles at 5°C could result to a reduced percentage of motile and progressively motile ES. Nevertheless, this considerable proportion of ES remained useful both for cryobanking and fertilization studies.

Background: Glycometabolic state at hospital admission is an important risk marker for long-term mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction. Our aim was to ascertain the associated risk factors and glycemic status in patients with different types of myocardial infarction, and to assess whether such abnormalities can be identified in the early course of myocardial infarction.Methodology: This cross sectional observational study was carried out enrolling 100 subjects with ST elevation (42 subjects) and non ST elevation (58 subjects) myocardial infarction, in the Department of Cardiology, BIRDEM General Hospital, Shahbagh, Dhaka, over a period of six months from January 2012 to June 2012. We did fasting blood glucose and glycatedhaemoglobinA1C (HbA1C) level next day following admission with or without history ofdiabetes mellitus and observed the difference between two types of myocardial infarction (ST elevation and non ST elevation ).Results: Mean age and gender difference was significant between ST elevation and non ST elevationmyocardial infarction. Significant differences in pre-existing risk factors such as Diabetes (95.2%,vs 86.2% ), Dyslipidemia (72.91%, vs 44.82%), Hypertension (79.16%, vs 36.2%) and family history of Ischemic Heart Disease(75%, vs 29.31%) were observed between ST elevation and non ST elevation groups. It was revealed that mean fasting blood glucose (FBG) in ST elevation and non ST elevation was 10.23 mmol/l and 8.42 mmol/l respectively. Mean HbA1C level was 9.2% and 8.9% in ST elevation and non ST elevation. Significant difference in fasting blood glucose and HbA1C was observed between ST elevation and non ST elevation group.Conclusion: Glycemic status is relatively more uncontrolled in ST elevated MI and must be managed with all possible therapeutic modules to minimize further complications.Bangladesh Crit Care J March 2017; 5(1): 3-6

Objective: To see the clinical presentation and biochemical abnormalities in hospitalized patients of Diabetic ketoacidosis.Methodology: This cross sectional observational study was carried enrolling 55 subjects with Diabetic ketoacidosis, in the Department of Medicine, BIRDEM General Hospital, Dhaka, over a period of six months starting from April 2013 to September 2013.Results: The mean age was 48.35±16.76 with age range from 30 to 68 years. Infection (pneumonia, urinary tract infection, cellulitis) 22(40%), omission of insulin or drugs 14 (25.4%), myocardial infarction 5(9.0%), and reduction of insulin dose 3(5.4%) worked as precipitating cause.Most patients had drowsiness 16(29.0%), moderate dehydration 30(55.5%), signs of infection 22(40%). About 13(23.56%) had Kussmauls type of respiratory pattern. Other signs were less obvious. Majority of the subjects 40(72.7%) had 3+ ketonuria at the time of admission in hospital. About 32(58.1%) of the known diabetic patients were on insulin from the beginning of their diagnosis.19 (34.4%) were initially on OHA followed by insulin and 14 (25.4%) patients took OHA alone.7 patients were on dietary modification and exercise without any drugs. Majority 52 (96.46%) patients had blood sugar level between 21-34 mmol/l and mean HbA1c was 12.31(SD±2.50).About 4(7.2%) patients had severe hyponatraemia and 22(40%) patients had hypokalaemia. Eight (14.5%) patients had severe acidosis while 18(32.7%) patients had only mild acidosis. Most of the subjects 29(52.7%) had moderate acidosis. Complete cure from DKA was observed in 53(96.3%) subjects. Only 2(3.6%) subjects developed cerebral oedema. It took 4 to 5 days in mild group, 6 to 8 days in moderate DKA and more than 9 days in severe DKA for recovery.Conclusion: From the study result it could be concluded that infection control and regular administration of insulin or control of diabetes and proper Diabetes Self Management Education (DSME) can prevent diabetic ketoacidosis.Bangladesh Crit Care J March 2017; 5(1): 7-10
