The aim of this study is to investigate whether patients undergoing one-stage bilateral total knee arthroplasty and those undergoing unilateral total knee arthroplasty differed in their responses to a standard intravenous patient-controlled analgesia protocol. Data from patients with the physiological status I-III according to American Society of Anesthesiologists, aged 18-99 years, undergoing one-stage bilateral or unilateral total knee arthroplasty under spinal anesthesia between January 2014 and December 2017 and offered a standard intravenous patient-controlled analgesia with morphine were retrospectively reviewed. Demographic data, Visual Analogue Scale scores and postoperative complications were examined. The total dose of analgesics consumed, analgesia demands, doses delivered and the ratio of delivered doses to demands in 0- 24 hours and 24-48 hours after surgery available in the patient-controlled analgesia pump monitoring forms were recorded.

Records about 68 patients who had one-stage bilateral total knee arthroplasty and 124 patients who had unilateral total knee arthroplasty were accessed. The analgesia demands and analgesic doses delivered and utilized by the patients with one-stage bilateral total knee arthroplasty were significantly higher in 0-24 hours and 24-48 hours after surgery. Side-effects of the analgesia were similar in both groups. Visual Analogue Scale scores in 24-48 hours after surgery were higher in the patients with unilateral total knee arthroplasty.

Although the patients with one-stage total knee arthroplasty received significantly higher doses of morphine, side-effects due to this opioid did not differ significantly. This showed that the standard intravenous patient-controlled analgesia protocol utilized was reliable and effective in both patient groups.
PROSTAT KANSERİNİN HACİMSEL MODÜLASYONLU ARK TEDAVİSİ İLE RADYOTERAPİSİNDE BİLGİ TABANLI PLANLAMA YÖNTEMLERİNİN KULLANILDIĞI KLİNİK ÇALIŞMALARIN DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİ

Bilgi Tabanlı Planlama (“Knowledge Based Planningˮ-KBP), klinik olarak kabul edilebilir Yoğunluk Ayarlı Radyoterapi (“Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy”-IMRT) ve Hacimsel Modülasyonlu Ark Tedavisi (“Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy”-VMAT) planlarını minimum iş akışıyla optimize etmek için bilgi tabanlı modeller (“Knowledge Based Model”–KBM) kullanarak plan kalitesini standart hale getirmeyi amaçlar. KBP, Risk Altındaki Organlar (‟Organ at Risk”-OAR) için ulaşılabilir Doz-Volüm Histogramı (DVH)’nı tahmin eder ve her bir yeni hasta için ideal optimizasyon hedefleri sağlar. KBP modeli, plan kalitesini iyileştirir, plan tutarlılığını koruyarak planlayıcılar arası değişkenliği azaltır ve simülasyondan tedavi başlangıcına dek geçen süreyi kısaltır.

Bu derlemede prostat kanserinin VMAT tekniği ile tedavisinde KBP tabanlı yöntemlerin kullanıldığı klinik çalışmaların sonuçları incelendi. “Knowledge-based treatment planning”, “prostate cancer”, “VMAT” anahtar kelimeleri kullanılarak “PubMed” tarama motorunda “Clinical Trial” kategorisindeki İngilizce olarak yayınlanmış makalelerin taranması sonucu ulaşılan beş adet çalışma derleme kapsamına alındı.

Bu klinik çalışmaların tümünde temelde KBP modelinin dozimetrik ve mekanik performansını değerlendirmek ve optimize etmek istenmiştir. Bu nedenle her bir kliniğin deneyimine göre hazırlanan manuel planlar, KBP ile oluşturulan otomatik planlar ile karşılaştırılmıştır. Prostat kanserinin VMAT planlamasında KBP kullanımı, doğrulama çalışmalarında, güçlü bir şekilde performans göstermiştir. KBP yöntemleri, plan kalitesi açısından genellikle uzman seviyesindeki planlayıcılara eşdeğerdir ancak ön sonuçlar, önemli ölçüde daha gelişmiş olduklarını göstermektedir. Hedef volüm ile örtüşen OAR volümlerinin dikkate alındığı KBP modellerinin örtüşme volüm histogramı (“overlap volüme histogram”-OVH) rehberliğinde daha hassas ve doğru doz tahminleri yapabileceği düşünülmektedir. KBP yöntemlerinin uygulaması sırasında dozimetrik ve mekanik performansın yanı sıra hastaya özgü kalite güvenirliğini (“Quality Assurance” –QA) doğrulamak da çok önemlidir.

Published: March 2023

Purpose: We aimed to evaluate the shear-wave elastography (SWE) findings of breast cancer and to compare their differences with other imaging techniques and to determine the rela-tionship between molecular subtypes.

Methods: Radiological findings and histopathology results of patients who underwent biopsy due to breast mass and diagnosed as malignant were evaluated retrospectively. SWE findings, ultrasonography (US), mammography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings were evaluated. The histo-pathology results of the tru-cut biopsy performed under the guidance of US-SWE were analyzed. The findings of SWE and other radiological techniques were compared statistically and relationship with molecular subtypes was evaluated.

Results: We had 51 patients with a median age of 58 years. In SWE, the mean tumor size was 20 mm, and the tumor elasticity was 105 kPa. Statistically signi-ficant correlation was found between the tumor size differences measured by B mode US-SWE and the tumor elasticity value. No correlation was found between SWE findings and molecular subtypes. SWE had significantly high positive correlation with mamography and MRI in terms of lesion size, with US very high positive correlation and with ER positivity weak negative correlation.

Conclusion: In addition to conventional radiological imaging techniques the use of SWE provides useful insight to evaluation of breast cancer.

Published: March 2023

Fruktozun işlenmiş gıdalarda yaygın olarak kullanılması insülin direnci, abdominal obezite, hipertrigliseridemi ve hipertansiyon ile karakterize olan metabolik sendromun artmasına neden olmaktadır. Fruktozla oluşturulan metabolik sendrom tip 2 diyabet, kardiyovasküler hastalıklar ve alkole bağlı olmayan yağlı karaciğer hastalığı (NAFLD) gibi çeşitli hastalıklara zemin hazırlamaktadır. Renin-anjiyotensin sistemi (RAS), kan basıncının düzenlenmesi, sıvı-elektrolit homeostazı, hücre büyümesi ve glikoz homeostazı üzerinde önemli rollere sahiptir. Renin ve anjiyotensin dönüştürücü enzim (ACE) tarafından anjiyotensinojenden türetilen anjiyotensin I (Agt I) ve anjiyotensin II (Agt II), RAS'ın temel bileşenleridir. Deneysel ve klinik çalışmalar, aşırı fruktoz tüketiminin RAS aktivasyonunu artırdığını göstermiştir. Fruktozla oluşturulan metabolik sendromda artan Agt II, insülin sinyal yolunu bozarak insülin direncini başlatmakta ve böylece tip 2 diyabet, hipertansiyon ve NAFLD'e zemin hazırlamaktadır. Anjiyotensin dönüştürücü enzim 2 (ACE2) tarafından Agt II'den oluşturulan anjiyotensin 1-7 (Agt 1-7), insülin direnci ve hepatik yağ birikimi üzerinde düzenleyici etkilerin yanı sıra Agt II'ye karşı dengeleyici etkilere sahiptir.

Published: March 2023

A few promising solutions for thermal imaging Unexploded Ordnance (UXO) detection were proposed after the start of the military conflict in Ukraine in 2014. Our research focuses on improving the accuracy of UXO detection in thermal images. The current state-of-the-art UXO detection method is based on the YOLOv5 Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). We accessed the effectiveness of UXO detection by using the state-of-the-art object detector YOLOv7 in this article. Two YOLOv7 models were re-implemented, fine-tuned using a grid-search approach and trained on a UXOTi_NPA public dataset of 720x480 pixel thermal images. The results showed that the models were able to identify UXOs from 11 different classes with more than 90% probability and a Mean Average Precision (mAP) of 86.8% to 89.7%, depending on the model's complexity. The metrics are just slightly behind the YOLOv5 results. Such CNN, thus, enables accurate automatic UXO detection, which is crucial to address one of the least explored and life-threatening problems worldwide.

Authors: Abdullahi Aliyu , Ibrahim Ahmed , Abubakar Yusuf
Published: March 2023

Drawing from Roger’s theory of diffusion of innovation, this paper examined the accrual basis IPSASIMPL in Nigeria. The population of the study comprised the 260 accounting staff of all the 6 Federal Government Institutions in Zaria. The sample size was 155 accounting staff using Krejcie and Morgan table. The sampling technique adopted was proportionate stratified random sampling techniques. Data were collected through the use of Questionnaires and analyzed using binary logistic regression techniques. The study found that Relative Advantage (RELADV) was positive and significantly related to accrual basis IPSASIMPL in Nigeria. However, Compatibility (COMPAT) and Observability (OBSERV) are positive but insignificantly related to accrual basis IPSASIMPL in Nigeria. Complexity (COMPLEX) is inversely and significantly related to accrual basis IPSASIMPL in Nigeria. Trial-ability (TRIALA) is the only factor that was negative and insignificantly related to accrual basis IPSASIMPL in Nigeria. It was therefore concluded that RELADV and COMPLEX have impacted on accrual basis IPSASIMPL in Nigeria. However, COMPAT, OBSERV and TRIALA have not impacted on the accrual basis IPSASIMPL in Nigeria. The study recommends for an increased consideration of the benefits of IPSAS and its complexity to facilitate the implementation process of accrual basis IPSAS in Nigeria.

Authors: Bhatt Pooja , Sharma Sonika , Grover Kiran , Sharma Savita , Dharni Khushdeep , Dhatt Ajmer Singh
Published: March 2023

Background: Fresh microgreens are nutrient dense crops with high moisture content, thus have a short life span. Application of different drying techniques enhanced its shelf life but leads to nutrient losses. There is permanent need to enhance the nutrient retention in dried microgreen. Methods: The research study of microgreens investigated during 2019-2020 at Punjab Agricultural University. Broccoli (Brassica oleracea var. Palam Samridhi) seeds were soaked overnight and grown in outdoor setting and harvested at 10th day after germination. The harvested broccoli microgreens were dried using shade drying, tray drying and microwave drying. Dried samples were analyzed for nutritional parameters. Result: Microgreens contain significantly higher nutrients (Ca, Fe, Zn, Mg, K, ascorbic acid and b carotene), bioactive compounds (chlorophyll, total flavanoids and total phenols) and antioxidant activity as compared to their sprouts and mature counterparts. These are excellent sources of Fe, Ca, Zn, Mg, Vitamin C and beta carotene (pro-vitamin A), meeting per cent estimated average requirements (EAR) of 536%, 373%, 264%, 228%, 38%, 20% for Indian adult. To address the problem of perishability, there is a need to prolong their shelf life while retaining the nutritional quality. The present research has identified the optimum drying technique, on basis of nutrient retention, from a set of alternate techniques. Significant higher content of ascorbic acid (16.80 mg/100 g), chlorophyll (3.63 g/100 g), antioxidant activity (67.55%), Zn (35.23 mg/100 g), Fe (57.66 mg/100 g), Ca (2857 mg/100 g), K (334.23 mg/100 g) and Mg (706.43 mg/100 g) were observed in microwave dried microgreens. Incorporation of dried microgreen powder in food sprinkler resulted in a significant increase in vitamins, minerals, bioactive compounds and antioxidant activity as compared to the control.
Testing the factor structure of the teacher efficacy scale for in-service teachers
Authors: Tran Van Dat
Published: March 2023

In recent years, the factor structure of the teacher efficacy scale for in-service teachers has been validated and the significant impacts of the teacher efficacy on both teachers' outcomes (organizational commitment and job satisfaction) and students' outcomes (academic achievement and motivation) have been documented in different contexts of education. However, the present literature shows that there has been relatively little research on this field in the system of Vietnamese education. Therefore, the current study investigates the factor structure of the 24-item Vietnamese translation of the teachers’ sense of efficacy scale (TSES) for 397 in-service high school teachers. Factorial analysis revealed an adequate fit for the original TSES's three-factor structure, which included efficacy for instructional techniques, efficacy for classroom management and efficacy for student involvement. Cronbach's alpha coefficients showed good internal consistency for the overall scale and three subscales. The findings support the use of the TSES to measure teachers' efficacy in the context of Vietnam's educational system. Future research on teacher efficacy with subject expertise in Vietnamese schools should include teachers from primary, secondary and even tertiary universities.

Historically, universities have been a key element of socio-economic, political and technological development of nations. This fact has required a clear and effective relationship with society, which has commonly been called as linkage. Given the importance of this link, the purpose of this article is to review the evolution of the term in order to know what the analysis has focused on, so it allows us to identify the degree of social dimension importance in this relationship. To achieve this task, a historical-theoretical review is carried out of the conception of the university linkage with its environment. This review shows that there is little consensus on how to call it and define it, since there is a risk of falling into generalizations or reductionisms. The study of university-company linkage has been privileged, so this paper proposes the concept of university social linkage as an approach to examine how universities interact with other social actors and towards all areas of reality. It is relevant to highlight that university linkage is a strategy for social relevance, which it is not explored in depth in this document, but is outlined as a future line of research.

Published: March 2023

The university mission is a subject of debate that has been considered for some decades, as something that must be reformed to meet the needs of different contexts. This paper makes an approach to the role that universities assume with respect to their mission and their substantive functions in order to assimilate social problems and thus respond to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). The objective is to describe the main elements that are found around a model of USR in order to face the postmodern stage. For this, the 2030 agenda of the United Nations (UN) is taken as the central axis, as well as the positions of social knowledge management and the USR for the analysis. As results, a series of elements are offered that can serve as the basis for the formulation of a Model of social use of knowledge through the development of projects from the university that are applicable to the social environment and with which it is promoted in the academic community and student, an awareness of the problems that must be addressed as a priority according in the different social spheres.

The purpose of this research is to systematize the experience accumulated between the years 2017 and 2020 developed by the Faculty of Economics of the National University of Piura in its interaction with rural communities, based on evidence from two Populated Centers: Coyona and Yahuanduz, with the purpose of contributing to improve their living conditions. Said purpose is framed in the work of the university from the University Social Responsibility (USR); and focused from the third great mission of the university: the transfer of knowledge and the return to society. Under this proposal, it is inferred that communities not only find problems, but also solutions, which must be configured from technology and social innovation; and, be oriented towards rural spaces through capacity building and community participation. Under this proposal, a social construction based on community development prototypes should be sought, which recognizes previous knowledge and manages to insert itself into the work of the Faculty of Economics to configure a replicable and sustainable mode of interaction.

Published: March 2023

Introduction: Developmental delays in children are signs of chronic malnutrition brought on by unfavorable circumstances since birth. Throughout the first 1000 days of life, stunting might increase mortality and disrupt bodily processes. Toddler malnutrition can also result from their culture, traditions, and social food. This study sought to synthesize earlier research that offered an overview of the cultural perspective on stunting prevention.Methods: Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) Guidelines were employed in the research design, and four databases were used for the literature search method (Scopus, PubMed, ProQuest, and Google Scholar) To find relevant articles, use the Boolean operator “stunting” OR “stunted” AND “culture” OR “cultural” AND “prevention” OR “prevent” by limiting 2017–2022 in English, full-text articles, and open access.Results: There are 12 papers addressing the cultural perspectives in the prevention of stunting, including parenting cultures on the role of fathers, parenting cultures on the role of grandmothers, and cultures of family empowerment. These studies are cross-sectional and quasi-experimental.Conclusions: Values emerge from interpersonal interaction and become part of the culture. A slightly different approach is required for communicating behavior change, especially in regions where ancestors’ customs and beliefs are still practiced. Stunting can be avoided by using the cultural perspective as a preventative measure.Keywords: culture; health care; prevention; stunting

Published: March 2023

Introduction: Breast cancer is a type of cancer with the highest incidence among women worldwide. It has an impact on the patient’s physical, psychological, social, and functional health. Breast cancer patients have a greater burden of symptoms, which can lead to decreased quality of life. This study had the objective to describe breast cancer patients’ quality of life in a hospital.Methods: A descriptive observational study design was used. The research population was breast cancer patients in a public hospital. The sample in this study was based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria, with a total of 110 respondents obtained through the proportional sampling technique. The data were analyzed using descriptive analysis. Data were collected by referencing demographic data and distributing a quality-of-life questionnaire (FACT-B). Results: Regarding the quality-of-life variable, findings show that 32 patients had very bad physical well-being (29.1%). Most of the social well-being relations were good, with 40 respondents in this category (36.4%). The majority were in the bad category in terms of functional well-being, with 52 respondents being identified (47.3%). Emotional well-being was considered good for 66 respondents (60.0%). In terms of additional concerns, as many as 60 respondents were in the bad category (54.2%).Conclusions: Chronic conditions can negatively impact patients’ physical health and quality of life. Low quality of life is related to the burden of symptoms experienced by patients, such as anxiety, depression, and fatigue. This suggests that social support can strengthen effective coping and improve patients’ quality of life.Keywords: breast cancer; breast carcinoma; health-related quality of life; quality of life; patients

Abstract: Risk stratification of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients is very important to determine patient care and prognosis. The reliable parameters include C-reactive protein (CRP), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR). This study aimed to determine the relationship between CRP, LDH, and NLR levels with the severity of COVID-19 patients. An observational study with a cross-sectional approach was conducted at Ulin Hospital Banjarmasin on 91 eligible subjects. A logistic regression test was conducted to determine the relationship between variables and the severity of COVID-19. The results showed that there was no significant relationship between CRP levels and the severity of COVID-19 (prevalence odds ratio (POR) 0.85, 95% confidence interval (CI 95%) 0.34-2.09, p=0.72). There was a significant difference between the mean LDH levels in severe COVID-19 compared to non-severe COVID-19 (1006 + 601.77 vs 543.5 + 480.41, p<0.001), with POR 4.23, 95% CI 95% 1.56-11.45, p=0.005; there was also a significant difference between the mean NLR values in severe COVID-19 compared to non-severe COVID-19 (9.01 + 6.32 vs 5.38 + 5.03, p=0.002) with POR of 12.21 CI 95% 3.80-39.31, p<0.001. This study showed that LDH levels and NLR values were important predictors of COVID-19 severity.

U.S. Competitive Approach to the PRC: Active “Burden-Shifting” Strategy
Authors: Kuznetsov N.
Published: March 2023

By the time Donald Trump came to the White House, the American political elites and expert community had developed a consensual perception that China’s strategy was aimed at challenging the U.S. dominance and threatening its national interests. The United States Strategic Approach to the People’s Republic of China, adopted by the Trump Republican Administration but reflecting a bipartisan position, marked the most dramatic shift in policy towards China since Richard Nixon. The main change was the recognition of the competitive nature of the U.S. – China relations, which resulted in the development and subsequent implementation of a competitive approach to relations with the PRC. This approach is largely based on the experience and theoretical concepts developed during confrontation with the Soviet Union but there are significant differences primarily due to the limitations imposed by interdependence of the American and Chinese economies, which did not exist between the U.S. and the USSR. The first part of the article reveals the concept and principles of the competitive approach, a commitment to which has been reiterated by the Biden administration. It is stated that such approach aims at forcing the PRC to change its strategy that threatens American interests. This goal is achieved by applying a complex pressure on the military and strategic, socioeconomic and politico-ideological strands through implementation of four types of competitive strategies identified by the U.S. expert community: strategies of denial, “cost-imposing” strategies, attacking the enemy’s strategy, and attacking the adversary’s political system. Their implementation is illustrated predominantly in the cases of the American–Soviet confrontation. Using the active “burden-shifting” strategy as an example, the second (practical) part of the study offers the most recent evidence of the “cost-imposing” strategy based on the principle of exploiting an enemy’s vulnerabilities in the most efficient way. It demonstrates how Washington’s approach to Afghanistan was transformed within such a strategy. The reasons for the formation, development process and the main ideas of the strategy are described in detail. It is acknowledged that the close-out of the U.S. – led security mission in Afghanistan was largely driven by the intention to shift the responsibility for the security in the region to the PRC. It is stated that there are no guaranteed tools for the Chinese leadership to counter the U.S. competitive approach, and the PRC is not enough prepared for a full-scale contest with the United States. The study concludes that it would be better for Beijing to delay transition to open competition in the bilateral relations.

The emergence of drug resistant pathogenic bacteria is increasingly challenging conventional antibiotics. Plant derived flavonoids are considered as potential alternatives to antibiotics due to their antimicrobial properties. However, the mechanisms by which flavonoids modulate pathogenic microorganisms’ growth are not fully understood. In our previous studies we found that Rutin, a kind of flavonoids showed inhibition against Klebsiella pneumoniae strains. In order to better understand its inhibitory mechanism on strain growth, we used both Rutin and Luteolin as treatments to incubate K. pneumoniae ATCC700603 strain. After incubation for 4 hours, the homogenous and differential effects of two different flavonoids on the growth of K. pneumoniae were evaluated. The integrated metabolomic and transcriptomic analysis was performed. The expression levels of 5,483 genes and the contents of 882 metabolites were measured. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and metabolites (DEMs) were screened and analyzed. The correlation between DEGs and DEMs were also studied. Our results showed that Rutin could inhibit the strain growth by changing metabolic pathways and ABC transporters pathways. Our study also revealed FU841_RS17580 and FU841_RS19145 as functional genes that played vital roles in the strain growth.
Sustainable Entrepreneurship and Corporate Social Responsibility: Systematic Bibliometric Literature Review
Authors: Rosário Albérico Travassos , Figueiredo José
Published: March 2023

At a basic level, entrepreneurship refers to an individual or a small group of partners that intend to create a new business. Entrepreneurship is at forefront of any competitive economy due to the creation of new products and services that comes from new ideas. In other words, entrepreneurship is associated with economic wealth, growth and innovation. The usage of resources in the creation of new businesses needs to be rational because investors normally are risk averse, and nowadays, the purpose of a new business needs to be for a long-term period, and the usage of resources has to take into mind the possible damage to the planet. In other words, entrepreneurs and the sustainability of the planet are interconnected. Beyond this, entrepreneurs need to take care of the corporate social responsibility of each new business, considering the interests of itself, its stakeholders, and the public. Nevertheless, existing research has not shown in full all the research streams, how they interact with each other and their potential knowledge development. Thus, a literature review on social entrepreneurship and corporate social responsibility in the last decade are opportune. This paper aims to identify research trends in the field through a Systematic Bibliometric Literature Review of social entrepreneurship and corporate social responsibility research. The review includes 69 articles published in the Scopus® database, presenting up-to-date knowledge on the topic.

Coastal lagoons are dynamic transitional water ecosystems hosting valuable biological communities, including rich and diverse macrophyte assemblages. Aquatic macrophytes must cope with large fluctuations of environmental conditions on a spatial and seasonal scale. Salinity is one of the most variable parameters, changing from nearly freshwater to hypersalinity, and it is known to have a strong influence on the composition and structure of macrophyte assemblages. This study is focused on the effect of salinity on macrophyte communities of the eight most important coastal lagoons of Apulia (south-eastern Mediterranean Sea). A set of eleven transitional water body types (sensu Water Framework Directive) were allocated in a range of meso- to hyperhaline lagoons. Macrophyte sampling was carried out between 2011 and 2019 and a total of 324 samples (18 sampling stations x 2 seasons x 9 years) was analyzed. Then, macrophyte occurrence in each transitional water body (T-WB) was expressed as frequency values (%) and assemblages were compared to assess any similarity in relation to four salinity classes (mesohaline, polyhaline, euhaline, hyperhaline). Species richness varied according to the salinity class, being much higher in polyhaline and euhaline T-WBs and strongly decreasing at the extremes of salinity range (mesohaline and hyperhaline T-WBs). Moreover, statistical analysis showed a high resemblance of macrophyte assemblages of T-WBs within the same salinity class, which shared a great number of species. Four distinct macrophyte communities were distinguished, reflecting the salinity conditions of different T-WB types and confirming the effectiveness of a lagoon typology based on this descriptor.
On Surface Waves Generated By Extra-Tropical Cyclones. Part I: Multi-Satellite Measurements

Surface waves generated by Extra-Tropical Cyclones (ETCs) can significantly affect shipping, fishing, offshore oil and gas production and other marine activities. This paper presents results of satellite-data-based investigation of wind waves generated by two North Atlantic ETCs. These ETCs were fast-moving systems, inhibiting resonance (synchronism) between the group velocity of the generated waves and the ETC translation velocity. For these cases, the wave generation begins when the front-boundary of the storm appears at a given ocean location point. Since developing waves are slow, they move backward relative to the storm, grow in time, and then leave the ETC stormy area through the rear sector. Multi-satellite observations confirm such a paradigm, and reveal that the storm regions is filled up with young developing wind waves which are most developed in the rear-right sector. As observed, the energy of these waves was growing in time during the ETC life span. It is demonstrated that the extended-fetch concept (inherent for Tropical Cyclones) does not apply for ETC. Instead, by analogy, the concept of extended-duration wave growth concept is more relevant. Satellite observations well confirm the validity of duration-laws for waves generated by ETCs, and demonstrate that extended-fetch regime for observing waves can only asymptotically be achieved, - at time intervals exceeding the lifespan of considered ETCs.

If a subject learns about the properties of an alternative under a high state of food deprivation, it will prefer this alternative over a similar one in a later choice test, although the subject is currently under a relative state of satiety. In this experiment, we probe this effect in a delay-discounting task, where the reward of the experienced alternative is progressively delayed. Eight male Wistar rats were trained to respond to an alternative under a high state of deprivation and eight rats under a relative state of satiety. After 20 sessions, their weight was recalibrated to a state of relative satiety. Then, they were exposed to a delay-discounting task where the long-larger alternative was the one used during training. The group that experienced the alternative under a higher level of food deprivation preferred more this alternative, and its preference stayed across time. On the contrary, the group that experienced the alternative under a lower level of food deprivation systematically preferred the small-shorter alternative. Our results support that the reinforcement value may be sensitive to the organism's state at the moment an alternative is experienced for the first time.
