Research Note: Optimizing wheat productivity through improved techniques for in situ moisture conservation in a micro watershed under sub-tropical region of North-Western India
Authors: Arora Sanjay , Hadda M. S.
Published: November 2019

The sub-montane rainfed region of North-West India has sloping topography, poor soil structure, deep water table and suffers from uneven distribution of rainfall in space and time. In an on-farm experiment on wheat conducted in the foothill region of Punjab, soil moisture storage increased to 7.7, 12.8 and 15.4% in treatment T2 (minor land shaping + NPK), T3 (T2 + 25% N replacement through FYM) and T4 (T3 + ridge sowing + Zn + herbicides), respectively, over T1 (farmers’ practice as control). Maximum increase in plant height of 28.7 per cent was observed in T4 followed by 19.9% in T3 and 13.6% in T2 treatment compared to T1. Number of grains per ear increased by 14.6, 25.1 and 33.7% through T2, T3 and T4 treatments, respectively over that in treatment T1. The grain and straw yield of wheat significantly increased by 38.6 and 65.3% in T2, 56.3 and 76.6% in T3 and 63.3 and 88.2% in T4 treatment respectively over T1 treatment (control). Maximum monetary returns were obtained in T4 treatment.
Research Note: Coverage of climate change risks in leading Philippine newspapers
Authors: Piamonte Rick-Angelo , Gravoso Rotacio
Published: November 2019

The study aimed to find out the coverage of climate change risks in Philippine leading newspapers – Philippine Daily Inquirer, Philippine Star, and Manila Bulletin. The sample issues were from those published from January to December 2007. Results showed that the sample newspaper issues had 401 articles on climate change risks. Of these articles, the biggest number was related to education and the least was on species extinction. The one-way ANOVA showed that the three national dailies were not significantly different in terms of the number of climate change risk articles. Results also revealed that the three newspapers did not give prominence to climate change risk articles. Aside from the small space allocated, most of these articles were placed in inside pages. Experts were the most common sources of information for the articles.

CAMP Test Detected Staphylococcus delphini ATCC49172 β-haemolysin Production
Authors: SAVINI VINCENZO , KOSECKA MAJA , MARROLLO ROBERTA , CARRETTO EDOARDO , MIĘDZOBRODZKI JACEK
Published: November 2019

Through a CAMP test, we first observed a Staphylococcus delphini strain (ATCC 49172) to release beta-haemolysin. Production of the latter in this coagulase-positive species of the 'Staphylococcus intermedius Group', in fact, has been labeled to be undetermined, thus far. Of course, a wider number of strains have to be investigated in order to define whether this property is constitutive (like in Staphylococcus (pseud)intermedius), or strain-dependent (like in Staphylococcus aureus), and which clinical impact it has; nevertheless, we can state that S. delphini ATCC 49172 indeed produces this toxin.
Quantitative Expression of the Candida albicans Aspartyl Proteinase Genes SAP7, SAP8, SAP9, SAP10 in Human Serum in vitro
Authors: STANISZEWSKA MONIKA , BONDARYK MAŁGORZATA , MALEWSKI TADEUSZ , KURZĄTKOWSKI WIESŁAW
Published: November 2019

The different members of the secreted aspartyl proteinase (Sap) family of the human pathogenic yeast Candida albicans are proposed to play different roles during infection and are differentially expressed at various body sites. In recent reports, expression analysis has focused on the genes SAP1-6, while the expression pattern of SAP7-10 was less well studied. We analyzed the SAP7-SAP10 expression profile of C. albicans under human serum influence that may be elucidated in the course of blood infection in humans and how this in vitro expression profile is associated with hyphal formation. The phenotypes of strains were examined under scanning electron microscopy. Quantitative RT-PCR (2-(deltadeltaC)T) was used to monitor SAP expression of C. albicans wild type cells and mutants lacking SAP9 and/or SAP10. Of the four analyzed SAP genes, only SAP7 was detectably induced in the double mutant and in the wild type strains in the model that mimics bloodstream infections. On the other hand, in the wild types (isolate 83 and CAF2-1), SAP7 was expressed 0.8- or 0.4-fold less than SAP10, respectively. Our findings suggest that Sap7 may respond to the challenge of the human blood environment. Furthermore, the results support the notion that compensatory upregulation of SAP7 and SAP8 in the deltasap9/deltasap10 mutant occurs in these conditions. SAP7-10 expression was strain-specific. Our findings point to a link between morphogenesis and expression of SAP9 in serum, where these conditions induce both hyphae and SAP9, but temporal gene expression patterns might be controlled by other factors.

Effects of Aging on Activities of Mitochondrial Electron Transport Chain Complexes and Oxidative Damage in Rat Heart
Authors: TATARKOVÁ Z. , KUKA S. , RAČAY P. , LEHOTSKÝ J. , DOBROTA D. , MIŠTUNA D. , KAPLÁN P.
Published: November 2019

Mitochondrial dysfunction and accumulation of oxidative damage have been implicated to be the major factors of aging. However, data on age-related changes in activities of mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) complexes remain controversial and molecular mechanisms responsible for ETC dysfunction are still largely unknown. In this study, we examined the effect of aging on activities of ETC complexes and oxidative damage to proteins and lipids in cardiac mitochondria from adult (6-month-old), old (15-month-old) and senescent (26-month-old) rats. ETC complexes I-IV displayed different extent of inhibition with age. The most significant decline occurred in complex IV activity, whereas complex II activity was unchanged in old rats and was only slightly reduced in senescent rats. Compared to adult, old and senescent rat hearts had significantly higher levels of malondialdehyde, 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE) and dityrosine, while thiol group content was reduced. Despite marked increase in HNE content with age (25 and 76 % for 15- and 26-month-old rats, respectively) Western blot analysis revealed only few HNE-protein adducts. The present study suggests that non-uniform decline in activities of ETC complexes is due, at least in part, to mitochondrial oxidative damage; however, lipid peroxidation products appear to have a limited impact on enzyme functions.
Adiponectin Inhibits Hyperlipidemia-Induced Platelet Aggregation via Attenuating Oxidative/Nitrative Stress

Published: November 2019

Adiponectin acts as an endogenous antithrombotic factor. However, the mechanisms underlying the inhibition of platelet aggregation by adiponectin still remain elusive. The present study was designed to test whether adiponectin inhibits platelet aggregation by attenuation of oxidative/nitrative stress. Adult rats were fed a regular or high-fat diet for 14 weeks. The platelet was immediately separated and stimulated with recombinant full-length adiponectin (rAPN) or not. The platelet aggregation, nitric oxide (NO) and superoxide production, endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS)/inducible NOS (iNOS) expression, and antioxidant capacity were determined. Treatment with rAPN inhibited hyperlipidemia-induced platelet aggregation (P<0.05). Interestingly, total NO, a crucial molecule depressing platelet aggregation and thrombus formation，was significantly reduced, rather than increased in rAPN-treated platelets. Treatment with rAPN markedly decreased superoxide production (-62 %, P<0.05) and enhanced antioxidant capacity (+38 %, P<0.05) in hyperlipidemic platelets. Hyperlipidemia-induced reduced eNOS phosphorylation and increased iNOS expression were significantly reversed following rAPN treatment (P<0.05, P<0.01, respectively). Taken together, these data suggest that adiponectin is an adipokine that suppresses platelet aggregation by enhancing eNOS activation and attenuating oxidative/nitrative stress including blocking iNOS expression and superoxide production.

Published: November 2019

Teknologi jaringan nirkabel saat ini berkembang secara pesat khususnya di bidang kesehatan seperti monitoring tekanan darah. Pemeriksaan tekanan darah sangat penting dilakukan untuk mengetahui kondisi sistem peredarah darah pasien. Pada umumnya petugas kesehatan menggunakan tensimeter analog atau digital dalam melakukan pemeriksaan tekanan darah. Namun, penggunaan alat ini masih memiliki kelemahan dalam hal efisiensi pelayanan kesehatan karena setiap saat petugas kesehatan masih melakukan pemeriksaan pasien di setiap kamar dan alat ini belum dilengkapi modul nirkabel untuk mengirim data pasien ke setiap unit layanan secara real time. Permasalahan ini tentunya menjadi perhatian khusus akibat terbatasnya jumlah tenaga medis dalam melayani pasien, membutuhkan waktu yang cukup lama dalam melakukan proses diagnosa penyakit pasien, dan biaya administrasi menjadi meningkat. Untuk meningkatkan pelayanan kesehatan dan mengurangi beban kerja petugas kesehatan, peneliti mengusulkan rancangan sistem monitoring tekanan darah berbasis wireless menggunakan modul raspberry pi. Penelitian ini sangat membantu tenaga medis untuk dapat diterapkan pada rumah sakit atau puskesmas dalam memonitor kondisi penyakit pasien, khususnya tekanan darah. Rancangan yang diusulkan terdiri dari perangkat keras (sensor MPX5050GP, LCD, catu daya, dan laptop) dan perangkat lunak (bahasa pemrograman C, program aplikasi IDE, PHP, MySQL, dan dreamweaver). Hasil pengujian menunjukkan bahwa rancangan yang diusulkan berkerja dengan normal dengan tingkat akurasi 97,53%.
Sérialité vs singularité dans les monographies illustrées « Qui êtes-vous? » et « Les Contemporains »
Authors: Yanoshevsky Galia
Published: November 2019

À travers la notion de sérialité, cet article vise à étudier la tension inhérente qui existe entre le principe de sérialisation et la particularité des écrivains d'avant-garde qui au contraire n'obéissent pas à un esprit de groupe. À partir de l’échantillon modeste étudié ici (les collections « Qui êtes-vous? » et « Les Contemporains »), j'ai montré que la question se situait moins dans la différenciation des séries que dans la tension entre la singularité de l’écrivain étudié et le rôle qu'il joue dans la « série ». Ainsi, la question du choix stylistique et poétique joue un rôle considérable dans les deux séries et se manifeste dans les deux systèmes sémiotiques – dans le texte, aussi bien que dans les choix d'images et de leurs commentaires. Ainsi, le biographique est conduit à la poétique, et ce jusqu’à l'exploitation des photos du groupe pour insinuer le positionnement singulier de chaque écrivain du groupe étudié au sein des collections. Une série (les auteurs d'avant-garde littéraire) dans la série (la collection), dont le succès dépend de la singularisation de chaque écrivain qu'elle présente.
Une supercherie collaborative: Claude Bonnefoy et Denis Roche dans l'ombre de Marc Ronceraille
Authors: Martens David
Published: November 2019

Publié en 1978, le Marc Ronceraille de Claude Bonnefoy constitue un hapax au sein de la collection « Écrivains de toujours ». Cet ouvrage présente en effet un auteur inventé de toutes pièces par l'auteur du livre, avec la complicité active du directeur de la collection, Denis Roche, auteur d'une partie conséquente des photographies qui illustrent l'ouvrage. Ce petit volume apparaît comme un geste carnavalesque au moment de franchir un seuil symbolique, celui de la centième livraison de la série. Autant dire que si cette monographie relative à un écrivain imaginaire n'a pas réellement dupé le public, elle présente cette singularité d'être le fruit d'un travail dans lequel se sont réellement engagés deux créateurs, l'un tendant à passer du statut de critique à celui d'écrivain, l'autre étendant sa palette d'activités de celle d'éditeur à celle de photographe.
Vie, philosophie, œuvre: les monographies de poche illustrées de philosophes
Authors: Cossutta Frédéric
Published: November 2019

On pourrait penser que les monographies de poche illustrées consacrées aux philosophes relèvent d'un genre éditorial mineur dont l'intérêt est tout entier dans leur visée didactique. Cet article voudrait montrer au contraire qu'elles ne sont pas sans intérêt pour qui veut réfléchir aux contraintes de mise en discours de la philosophie. On compare entre elles, en mobilisant les méthodes de l'analyse du discours, les modes de présentation, d'illustration, de composition proposées par les diverses collections de monographies, ainsi qu'avec celles qui sont consacrées aux écrivains. On découvre que leur fonction rétrospective consiste à élaborer un agencement spécifique aux « discours constituants » du rapport que noue chaque philosophie singulière entre vie, œuvre et doctrine. Une façon de contribuer à résoudre les risques de tension entre singularité et universalité, aléas de la pensée et création d'une œuvre, schèmes spéculatifs et modes d'exposition.

Authors: Zaicev Valerij , Mokrovickaja Natalia , Bochkareva Irina
Published: November 2019

The behavior of tungsten and molybdenum in extraction systems with binary extractants is investigated. The role of obtaining tungsten anhydride by purifying waste water from the redistribution is noted. The significance of binary extractants for the extraction of tungsten and molybdenum is underlined. Charts are presented to illustrate the quantitative dependence of the extracted substances. Salts of 4-tert.butylphenolate-, n.-caprylate-, di(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate- and di(2-ethylhexyl) were dithiophosphate trialkylbenzylammonium were used as extractants. Binary extractants have been found to provide efficient extraction and reextraction of tungsten and molybdenum. The maximum extraction of metals is observed at pH = 1–4. At pH> 8, the metals are present in the aqueous phase as mononuclear anions MoO42- and WO42-, and binary extractants are formed in the organic phase. Compared to amines and their salts, the solubility of the binary extractant in aqueous effluent redistribution decreases.

Authors: Pozdnyakov Alexander , Pupyshev Yury
Published: November 2019

Presented new results of determining the size of the ultrahigh-pressure Chuya-Kurai ice-dammed lake (Gorny Altai), the duration of formation and conclusions about continual-discrete processes of its a degradation.
At the final stage of the formation of the lake, the absolute height of its level was 2133 m; the maximum depth is 673 m, the length of the boundaries of the paleo-lake is 859.85 km, the area of its water area is 3 054.45 km2, and the volume of water mass reached 753.16 km3 at the maximum. The filling of the basin and the formation of the lake took place over 3 978 years. The conditions for the slow filling of the basins with water were favorable for the formation of perennial icing and the formation of a resistant ice-dammed ultrahigh-pressure dam-ice reservoir resistant to destruction, sufficient to contain the hydrostatic pressure exceeding 65 kg/cm2. The analysis of changes in the level of the lake shows that the emptying of the lake was uneven and not simultaneous, as expected. The results of the first high-precision instrumental leveling of the abrasion-accumulative relief are attached, the results of which establish the dependence of the change in the heights of the abrasion benches on the absolute height of the lowering lake level. The trends of the initial altitude rows of the abrasion altitudes of the Kurai and Chuya parts of the basins have a clearly pronounced nature of seasonality: the increasing value of lowering the level in the winter season, alternating with
its decreasing value in the summer. Water consumption during summer periods in minimax was 1000– 2 632 m3/s, and in winter – from 14–43 m3/s to 500–700 m3/s.

The tasks are given for the interpretation of environmental disturbances by technogenic processes: the selection on a satellite image of areas of natural complexes transformed by various types of economic activity; identification and characterization of sources of anthropogenic environmental impact; construction of the on-board version of the map illustrating the conclusions obtained during the interpretation of the satellite image. To perform the interpretation, images of Landsat 8 satellite images were used in two versions: in natural and false colors. Using the processes of automated decoding, in the ERDAS IMAGINE software package, images with different colors were obtained, allowing to divide objects into classes. The method "Spectral analysis" divided objects into 5 classes. According to the results of the interpretive work in MapInfo Professional, two raster images were superimposed on each other, one of which is a picture in natural colors, the other is an image obtained by the Spectral Analysis method. The imposition of raster images as a substrate allowed us to determine the boundaries of the areas that were subjected to industrial and man-made processes. As a result, a scheme was created illustrating the positions of sites subjected to industrial and man-made processes. Created in the MapInfo Professional software package, the scheme contains mining sites for coal and limestone, as well as industrial enterprises, indicated by numbers in the scheme. As a result, a scheme of environmental disturbances by industrial and man-made processes was obtained.

Published: November 2019

Aim: To determine and compare to what extent the intra-canal medicament like calcium hydroxide along with chemo-mechanical preparation reduces the bacterial load in infected root canals.

Methodology: PubMed Cental, Medline, Google Scholar and hand search was carried out using the keywords calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) , intra-canal medicament(ICM) and chemo-mechanical preparation.

Selection Criteria: Clinical trials in which bacterial samples were evaluated at 3 intervals (Baseline, after chemo-mechanical preparation, after dressing with intra canal medicament ICM and trials which use Ca(OH)2 with any vehicle as ICM, but not compared with any other ICM were selected for this review. The data collection form was customized. The primary outcome measures were reduction of bacterial populations in infected root canals.

Results: Seven clinical trials that met all inclusion criteria involving 117 participants were reviewed. Included studies showed significant difference in bacterial reduction after chemo-mechanical preparation and placement of Ca(OH)2 dressing for a week. In all included trials, Ca(OH)2 reduced bacterial load further compared with chemo-mechanical preparation.

Conclusion: Ca(OH)2 as an inter-appointment medication promoted further decrease in the bacterial bioburden to levels significantly below those achieved by the chemo-mechanical procedures alone. Intra-canal medicament such as Ca(OH)2 should be considered for bacterial reduction along with chemo-mechanical preparation for long term success.

Effects of Nitrogen Foliar Fertilization on the Vegetative and Productive Performance of the Olive Tree and on Oil Quality
Authors: Regni Luca , Proietti Primo
Published: November 2019

The correct management (dose, time of distribution) of N fertilization in olive growing is still not completely clarified but is nowadays essential in order to guarantee sustainable production. In this regard, in central Italy over a 4-year-period a study was carried out to investigate the effect of high nitrogen availability during oil accumulation in the fruit (second phase of fruit growth) on vegetative and productive activities of olive trees and oil quality. In May of each year, secondary branches were selected and girdled in their proximal part. Afterwards, half of the girdled branches were sprayed three times with a solution containing urea (2% w/w), whereas the other half was sprayed only with water. The nitrogen treatments did not cause any damage to the foliage and fruits nor did it cause appreciable changes in leaf photosynthesis and specific weight, fruit-drop, ripening pattern and weight, water and oil contents, pulp/pit ratio of the fruits, fatty acid composition, polyphenols content, and sensorial characteristics of the oil. The N provided via foliar fertilization during the oil accumulation phase in trees in conditions of good supply of N does not induce significant effects on the vegetative-productive activity of the tree.

The aims of this study were to assess the effects of increasing levels of DFRB as a replacement for corns on intestinal physical barrier function and bacteria of finishing pigs. A total of 35 castrated finishing pigs (age: 158.5 ± 2.0 d, initial body weight: 62.9 ± 0.8 kg) were randomly divided into five dietary treatments (seven replicates/treatment) for a 28-day experimental period, i.e., a control diet with basal diet, and four experimental diets in which maize was replaced by 7%, 14%, 21%, and 28% DFRB, respectively. The results showed that serum endotoxins concentration and diamine oxidase (DAO) activity were both increased (linear, p = 0.0004, 0.001, respectively) with DFRB level. However, compared with control group, serum endotoxins concentration and DAO activity were not different in pigs fed with 7% DFRB in the diet. There was a quadratic response in serum D-lactate concentration to the increased DFRB (quadratic, p = 0.021). In the cecum, thickness of the intestinal wall significantly increased with increasing levels of DFRB in the diets (linear, p = 0.033), while crypt depth/thickness of the intestinal wall ratio significantly decreased with increasing level of DFRB in the diets (linear, p = 0.043). In the jejunum, total bacteria, Escherichia coli, and Bifidobacterium all responded quadratically to increasing levels of DFRB in the diets (quadratic, p = 0.003, 0.001, 0.006, respectively). Additionally, there was no difference in Escherichia coli in pigs fed 0%, 7%, and 14% DFRB diets. In the colon, there were quadratic responses in C. perfringens to the increased DFRB (quadratic, p = 0.023). C. perfringens reduced as the DFRB concentration increased from 0% to 14% and then increased. When D-lactate, total bacteria, Escherichia coli, Bifidobacterium, and C. perfringens were considered, the optimal substitution level of DFRB were 12.00%, 11.84%, 7.50%, 8.92%, and 15.92%, respectively. In conclusion, 7% DFRB had a beneficial effect on intestinal wall thickness, Bifidobacterium and C. perfringens, and had no adverse effect on intestinal permeability and Escherichia coli.

Published: November 2019

This study investigated the effect of different dietary levels of defatted rice bran (DFRB) on growth performance, slaughter performance, and relative weights of the viscera in geese. A total of 300 28-day-old healthy male Yangzhou goslings with similar body weights were randomly divided into five groups, with six replicates per group and 10 geese per replicate. The geese were fed diets containing 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, or 40% DFRB for 42 days. Over the 29-d to 70-d trial period, no significant difference was observed in the average daily feed intake in geese (p > 0.05). However, 30% and 40% DFRB reduced body weights of geese at 70 d (p < 0.01) and average daily gain from 28 d to 70 d (p < 0.05) were observed, and 20%, 30%, and 40% DFRB increased feed-to-gain ratios from 28 d to 70 d (p < 0.01). Birds in the 30% and 40% DFRB groups had reduced breast yields (p < 0.05), and birds in the 40% DFRB group had increased thigh yields (p < 0.05). Birds in the 20%, 30%, and 40% DFRB groups had increased proventriculus weights (p < 0.01). The results suggested that a high level of DFRB affected growth performance, slaughter performance, and visceral development. Under the experimental conditions, we recommend that the dietary level of DFRB should not exceed 20% to avoid negative effects on geese.

The challenge of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is grave in developing countries. Antimicrobials are misused yet stakeholders’ contribution to antimicrobial stewardship is low. Veterinary students are future prescribers and their knowledge could influence progress in combating AMR; hence, there is a need to assess their knowledge, attitude, and awareness of AMR. A multi-institutional questionnaire was administered to undergraduates in Nigerian veterinary schools. It comprised demographics, own personal antibiotic usage, and knowledge, attitude, and awareness of AMR in humans and animals. Descriptive statistics and logistic regression were used for analyses. Of the 426 respondents, 39.2% reported personal antimicrobial use in the previous six months. Over 60% received knowledge scores lower than average and >87% requested more education on clinical use and prescriptions pre-graduation, monitored dispensing of antimicrobials, conducting AMR research, and confirmed link among human, animal, and environmental health. Less than 25% of respondents were aware of antimicrobial stewardship and global efforts/organizations for AMR. Final year students have 9-fold and 14-fold more satisfactory knowledge on antimicrobials in humans and animals compared with other students, respectively (p = 0.001). Final year students also have more knowledge (13×) and awareness of contributory factors (3×) on AMR (p = 0.001) than other students. Unsatisfactory knowledge on AMR issues exists among veterinary students yet willingness to improve was observed. Identified knowledge, attitude, and gaps in AMR awareness should be targeted by veterinary schools in Nigeria.

Free and Bound Phenolics of Buckwheat Varieties: HPLC Characterization, Antioxidant Activity, and Inhibitory Potency towards α-Glucosidase with Molecular Docking Analysis
Authors: Zhu Huilan , Liu Sixin , Yao Linling , Wang Lu , Li Congfa
Published: November 2019

Free and bound phenolic fractions from six buckwheat varieties were investigated for their compositions, antioxidant activities, and inhibitory effects on α-glucosidase. The results showed that different buckwheat varieties have significant differences in phenolic/flavonoid contents, and these contents were found in higher quantities in free form than in bound form. HPLC results revealed that rutin, quercetin, and kaempferol-3-O-rutinoside were the most abundant components in free and bound forms, whereas dihydromyricetin was found only in the bound form. Free phenolics showed higher antioxidant activities of DPPH, ABTS+, OH•, and FRAP than those of bound phenolics. Strong inhibitory effects against α-glucosidase by the free/bound phenolic fractions were found in all buckwheat varieties, and free phenolics showed stronger α-glucosidase inhibition than that of the corresponding bound phenolics. More importantly, the main phenolic compounds observed in the buckwheat varieties were subjected to molecular docking analysis to provide insight into their interactions with α-glucosidase. The contributions by individual phenolics to the observed variation was analysed by Pearson correlation coefficient analysis and principal component analysis. The present study provides a comprehensive comparison for the phenolic fractions of buckwheat varieties and identify the main contributors to antioxidant and α-glucosidase inhibitory activity.

Authors: Li Xiaolu , Zhang Peng , Zhu Guangyu
Published: November 2019

Urban rail stations play an important role in passenger distribution and connectivity intervals in the network. How to effectively and reasonably evaluate their importance in the network is the key to optimizing the urban rail network structure and reducing operational risks. Taking the site as the research object and considering the topology, passenger volume, and passenger flow correlation of the urban rail network, the index of citation index is used to define node importance metric based on the h-index. Furthermore, the method of calculating the importance degree of urban rail transit network nodes based on h-index is proposed. The validity of the method is verified by the data of Beijing urban rail network in 2016, and the results are compared with the existing central index based on the network topology characteristics.
