Educational Administration is the whole process of collaboration of two or more people by utilizing all available personnel and material resources and appropriate to achieve the educational goals that have been set effectively and efficiently. Professional teaching is a profession that is very important in the life of a nation, this is not because the educational position is very important in the context of national life. Educators are the dominant element in an educational process, so that the quality of education is largely determined by the quality of educators in carrying out their roles and duties in societ. Therefore the development of the teaching profession will have a major impact on improving the quality of education that is still lagging behind, as well as giving the right direction for students to play a role in the community to participate with the community in building the nation.

Distribution of facial resemblance in romantic couples suggests both positive and negative assortative processes influence human mate choice
Authors: Holzleitner Iris Jasmin , O'Shea Kieran J. , Fasolt Vanessa , Lee Anthony J , DeBruine Lisa Marie , Jones Benedict C
Published: December 2019

Previous research suggests that humans show positive assortative mating, i.e. tend to pair up with partners that are similar to themselves in a range of traits, including facial appearance. Facial appearance can function as a cue to genetic similarity and plays a critical role in human mate choice. Evidence for positive assortative mating for facial appearance has largely come from studies showing people can match pictures of couples’ faces at levels greater than chance and that facial photographs of couples are rated to look more similar than those of non-couples. However, interpreting results from matching studies as evidence of positive assortative mating for facial appearance is problematic, since this measure of perceived compatibility does not necessarily reflect actual physical similarity, and may be orthogonal to, or even negatively correlated with, physical similarity. Even if participants are asked to rate facial similarity directly, it remains unclear which, if any, face shape cues contribute to an increased perception of similarity in romantic couples. Here we use a shape-based assessment of facial similarity to show that the median similarity of long-term couples’ face shapes is only slightly greater than that of an age-matched control sample. Moreover, this was driven by the most similar 40% of couples, while the most dissimilar 20% of couples actually showed disassortative mating for face shape when compared to the control sample. These data show that a simple measure of central tendency obscures variability in the extent to which couples display assortative or disassortative mating for face shape. By contrast, a more fine-grained analysis that considers the distribution of variation across couples in the extent to which they resemble each other suggests that both positive and negative assortative processes influence human mate choice.

Authors: Gadais Tegwen , Caron Theo , Ayoub Marie Belle , Karelis Antony , Nadeau Luc
Published: December 2019

INTRODUCTION: Medium or long term intervention strategies on physical activity practice (PAP) need to be more effective in their implementation by practitioners. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of a teacher to implement the Team Pentathlon (TP) in order to improve the PAP in children. METHODS: 203 children (age: 10-13years), grades 5 and 6 (intervention group [IG] N = 104, control group [CG] N = 99) were guided to increase their PAP during an 8-week period by 5 elementary school teachers (physical education or classroom) who received 4 training sessions. Levels of PAP (self-reported) were compared between groups (IG/CG), sex, socioeconomic status of the schools and between teachers: baseline and during TP. RESULTS: Several teachers noted significant increases in PAP in the IG for both boys and girls (p<.05 or p<.01), whereas others found only small improvements in PAP. One teacher even observed higher PAP in the CG. Training session records revealed that the teacher himself, how the TP is implemented, and proper resources were the 3 elements that explained the successful implementation of the TP program. CONCLUSION: The implementation of the TP significantly increased the PAP in children. Training sessions helped teachers to implement the TP program but personal engagement, motivation, respecting protocol and adequate environment are necessary in improving the PAP of children.
Rediscovering the Power of Physical Relief Models: Mayson’s Ordnance Model of the Lake District
Authors: Priestnall Gary
Published: December 2019

Mayson’s Ordnance model of the Lake District, commissioned by Henry and Thomas Mayson from the sculptor Raffaelle Monti in 1875, was based upon early maps from Ordnance Survey, the government mapping agency for Great Britain. It was displayed in the town of Keswick, now in Cumbria, England, until around 1980, when it is believed to have been destroyed. A large number of original negative moulds from the model were recovered, together with other historical objects, allowing the unique characteristics of the model to be explored for the first time. The study reveals the model to have been innovative for its time, being a very early example of a relief model constructed from contours. The scientific authority of the model, along with its cartographic detail and size, was used to promote it as a spectacle for early tourists. The article describes a process of digital capture, processing, and 3D fabrication that allowed parts of the model to be analysed and redisplayed. An exhibition explored public engagement with physical landscape models, included a novel visitor-led identification of the remaining moulds. Examples of modern landscape modelling and visualization techniques helped to explore the role physical models could play in the modern visitor experience.
Human Geography, Indigenous Mapping, and the US Military: A Response to Kelly and Others’ “From Cognitive Maps to Transparent Static Web Maps”
Authors: Wainwright Joel
Published: December 2019

In 2017, Cartographica published an article that criticized some human geographers for misguided oversensitivity to the use of funding from the US military to map indigenous lands. According to Kelly and others, geographers who map indigenous lands with funding from the US military – as they have done in Honduras – do not compromise the discipline’s ethical norms as long as they openly reveal their source of funds. We re-evaluate this claim by considering the specific source of funding used by Kelly and others to map indigenous lands in Honduras: the US military’s Minerva Research Initiative. Awards from Minerva, we show, are neither arbitrary nor based principally upon scholarly evaluation. Rather, the program is organized to increase the power of the US military through the development of new tactics and weapons through collaboration with social scientists. We conclude by discussing implications of our critique of Kelly and others for the ongoing debate regarding the involvement of the US military in the discipline of geography.
Time-resolved phase-contrast microtomographic imaging of two-phase solid–liquid flow through porous media
Authors: Ohser Joachim , Dobrovolskij Dascha , Blankenburg Christoph , Rack Alexander
Published: December 2019

Time-resolved microtomography with high frame rate, high lateral resolution and sufficiently high contrast allows for observing three-dimensional motion of particles in two-phase solid–liquid flows through porous structures. Knowledge of the interaction between the particles and an activated surface of the pore space is important for simulation of the flow as a part of the design of porous structures with improved properties. Investigations on such structures are, for example, a prerequisite for the development of new technologies for industrial cell chromatography. From the 3D image sequences obtained by time-resolved microtomography it is possible to estimate various flow characteristics such as the particle deposition rate at the surface of the pore space and the fraction of particles moving close to the surface.

La phytothérapie est largement utilisée pour le traitement de nombreuses pathologies, dont les alopécies. Ainsi, l’objectif de notre étude est de recenser auprès des herboristes de la ville de Marrakech (Maroc) les plantes utilisées pour le traitement de cette pathologie et de décrire leurs attitudes à l’égard de l’usage des plantes. L’échantillon étudié compte 129 herboristes (124 hommes et 5 femmes) âgés de 18 à 78 ans. Il ressort des résultats que le nombre d’espèces utilisées par les herboristes dans le traitement des alopécies est de 54 appartenant à 40 familles, et que le nombre moyen de plantes citées par herboriste est de 7 (7,2 ± 2,5). Les plantes citées par plus de 40 % des herboristes sont le henné (55,8 %), suivi par le rosier de Damas (74,3 %) et le giroflier (42,6 %). En outre, les différents traitements des herboristes sont différents en nombre et en type de plantes utilisées. Cette différence entre les herboristes semble liée à l’accessibilité à l’information relative aux nouveautés dans le domaine de la phytothérapie. Enfin, la majorité des herboristes (86,1 %) sont satisfaits des résultats du traitement des alopécies par les plantes, et la quasi-totalité (98,4 %) ont déclaré que les plantes utilisées n’ont aucun effet indésirable sur le patient.

Published: December 2019

This work aimed to evaluate the quality of surface water around the Manaus Solid Waste Landfill (ARSM), in which it is located near important waterways in a growing urban expansion area.  During the collection period, the parameters pH, T, fecal coliforms, OD, DBO5, nitrate, phosphate, turbidity and total solids were monitored, where these are the main parameters for performing water quality index calculations. The results analyzed indicate contamination in the streams near the perimeter of the Landfill, where the possible origins for non-conformities can be problems in draining the leached and waterproofing system of the landfill ponds. The recovery of the quality of these water resources is essential, since it is an area with flora and fauna that are heritage, not only of the residents who occupy their surroundings, but also the population of Manaus who in the past enjoyed bathing and fishing areas in the streams currently affected by the slurry produced in the landfill.

Authors: Syabani Muh. Wahyu , Suwarno Yuli , Agustian Mertza Fitra
Published: December 2019

Rubber solid waste amount increased continuosly and caused environmental problem since it is very difficult to be naturally degraded. Therefore, the interest of using rubber waste as raw material for new rubber product is increased. Reclaimed rubber can be used as filler aditif for rubber processing. The aim of this research was to study the effect of UV aging on the rubber product as the reclaimed filler added. The mixing of the rubber and the additives used the kneader and open mill. The vulcanization process was done by hydraulic press. In this research, the reclaimed rubber addition was varied as follows: 12,5; 37,5 and 62,5 phr. The products quality differences before and after the UV aging evaluated using physical tests. The result of FTIR showed that the polymer chain were broken by ultraviolet radiation. The physical test gives result that the hardness and tensile strength decreased, but the elongation is increased after UV aging.
Does minimizing co-contraction increase agility test performance?
Authors: Arpinar-Avsar Pinar , Celik Huseyin
Published: December 2019

BACKGROUND:

The majority of common agility tests include pre-planned change of direction (COD) maneuvers which require muscular coordination. However, muscular coordination in terms of organization of co-activated antagonistic muscle pairs in COD maneuvers have not been studied.

OBJECTIVE:

To evaluate muscle coordination by analyzing co-contraction at knee and ankle during three agility tests and to investigate the relationships between muscle coordination and test completion time.

METHOD:

Thirteen healthy young male subjects (22.1 [Formula: see text] 1.9 years) participated in the study. Surface EMG and acceleration signals were used to calculate co-contraction index (CCI) for selected antagonistic muscle pairs of ankle and knee joints during COD maneuvers in agility tests.

RESULTS:

The findings indicated that concurrent activation costs a delay to complete the test faster. CCI was higher at right ankle and left knee and showed an increasing trend with advancing the phase when the test requires multiple CODs.

CONCLUSIONS:

Minimizing co-contraction would result in faster movement, however, there might be a trade-off between joint stiffness and test performance depending on changes in neuromuscular factors such as altered motor control strategies due to strength imbalances or occurrence of fatigue.
Enhancement of knee extension voluntary and electrically-evoked strength with the body tilted backward
Authors: Tsai Liang-Ching , Zhao Zuowei , Fridenmaker Steven M. , Warren Gordon L.
Published: December 2019

BACKGROUND:

While extreme changes in body position (e.g., standing vs. sitting) have been shown to affect knee extensor strength, little is known regarding how less extreme changes in body position affect knee extensor strength and activation.

OBJECTIVE:

This study evaluated the effect of four seated positions on the maximum voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC) and electrically-evoked isometric strengths of the knee extensors.

METHODS:

Forty healthy subjects participated. MVIC strength, electrically-evoked strength, and voluntary activation of the quadriceps muscles were measured under four seated positions: 1) 22.5–25[Formula: see text] forward tilt, 2) 0[Formula: see text] tilt, 3) 22.5–25[Formula: see text] backward tilt, and 4) 45–50[Formula: see text] backward tilt. The effect of seated position on each dependent variable was assessed using a one-way repeated measures ANOVA with linear contrasts.

RESULTS:

MVIC and electrically-evoked strengths increased ([Formula: see text] 0.037) by 5–11% as the body was moved from the 22.5–25[Formula: see text] forward-tilted to 45–50[Formula: see text] backward-tilted position. However, voluntary muscle activation and EMG amplitudes of the knee extensors during MVIC did not change.

CONCLUSIONS:

Knee extensor MVIC and electrically-evoked strengths were modestly enhanced as the body was tilted backwards. The use of a semi-reclined position may assist in obtaining a more forceful contraction of the knee extensors, thereby potentially resulting in better strength training outcomes.

Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a genetic disorder caused by dysfunction of low density lipoprotein receptors (LDLr), resulting in elevated plasma cholesterol levels. FH patients frequently exhibit cognitive impairment, a finding recapitulated in LDLr deficient mice (LDLr-/-), an animal model of FH. In addition, LDLr-/- mice are more vulnerable to the deleterious memory impact of amyloid-β (Aβ), a peptide linked to Alzheimer’s disease. Here, we investigated whether the expression of proteins involved in Aβ metabolism are altered in the brains of adult or middle-aged LDLr-/- mice. After spatial memory assessment, Aβ levels and gene expression of LDLr related-protein 1, proteins involved in Aβ synthesis, and apoptosis-related proteins were evaluated in prefrontal cortex and hippocampus. Moreover, the location and cell-specificity of apoptosis signals were evaluated. LDLr-/- mice presented memory impairment, which was more severe in middle-aged animals. Memory deficit in LDLr-/- mice was not associated with altered expression of proteins involved in Aβ processing or changes in Aβ levels in either hippocampus or prefrontal cortex. We further found that the expression of Bcl-2 was reduced while the expression of Bax was increased in both prefrontal cortex and hippocampus in 3- and 14-month-old LDLr-/-mice Finally, LDLr-/- mice presented increased immunoreactivity for activated caspase-3 in the prefrontal cortex and hippocampus. The activation of caspase 3 was predominantly associated with neurons in LDLr-/- mice. Cognitive impairment in LDLr-/- mice is thus accompanied by an exacerbation of neuronal apoptosis in brain regions related to memory formation, but not by changes in Aβ processing or levels.

Published: December 2019

Background:

Obstructive sleep apnea is associated with an increased risk of developing mild cognitive impairment and dementia. Intermittent nocturnal hypoxemia in obstructive sleep apnea is associated with brain changes in key regions that underpin memory.

Objective:

To determine whether older adults with severe nocturnal hypoxemia would exhibit reduced functional connectivity within these regions, with associated deficits in memory.

Methods:

Seventy-two participants 51 years and over underwent polysomnography with continuous blood oxygen saturation recorded via oximetry. The oxygen desaturation index (ODI, 3% dips in oxygen levels per hour) was the primary outcome measure. ODI was split into tertiles, with analyses comparing the lowest and highest tertiles (N = 48). Thirty-five of the 48 participants from these two tertiles had mild cognitive impairment. Participants also underwent resting-state fMRI and comprehensive neuropsychological, medical, and psychiatric assessment.

Results:

The highest ODI tertile group demonstrated significantly reduced connectivity between the left and right parahippocampal cortex, relative to the lowest ODI tertile group (t(42) = –3.26, p = 0.041, beta = –1.99).The highest ODI tertile group also had poorer working memory performance. In the highest ODI tertile group only, higher left-right parahippocampal functional connectivity was associated with poorer visual memory recall (between-groups z = –2.93, p = 0.0034).

Conclusions:

Older adults with severe nocturnal hypoxemia demonstrate impaired functional connectivity in medial temporal structures, key regions involved in sleep memory processing and implicated in dementia pathophysiology. Oxygen desaturation and functional connectivity in these individuals each relate to cognitive performance. Research is now required to further elucidate these findings.
Tau Tangles in Parkinson’s Disease: A 2-Year Follow-Up Flortaucipir PET Study
Authors: Hansen Allan K. , Parbo Peter , Ismail Rola , Østergaard Karen , Brooks David J. , Borghammer Per
Published: December 2019

Background:

Flortaucipir PET, a marker of tau tangles, has shown lower than expected cortical uptake in Parkinson’s disease (PD), than would be predicted from neuropathologic estimates of Alzheimer’s disease co-pathology. Instead, the most characteristic finding of flortaucipir imaging in PD is decreased uptake in the substantia nigra, reflecting reduction in its “off-target” binding to neuromelanin. We have previously reported these observations in cross-sectional studies.

Objective:

Here, we present two-year follow-up data of cortical and nigral flortaucipir uptake in PD patients.

Methods:

Seventeen PD patients received repeat flortaucipir PET two years after baseline. We interrogated vertex-based group-wise cortical tracer binding (SUVRs) with a cerebellar reference using the general linear model while mean substantia nigra SUVRs were compared with volumes of interest group comparisons and voxel-wise group analyses using ANOVA. Finally, we performed linear regressions of tau load with changes in MoCA and UPDRS motor scores.

Results:

We found no significant changes in substantia nigra or cortex flortaucipir uptake in Parkinson’s disease patients over two years and no association with changes in cognitive symptoms. Signal reduction in the medial substantia nigra trended towards an association with worsening of motor symptoms.

Conclusion:

No significant increase in tau tangles occurred after a two-year follow-up of Parkinson’s disease patients using flortaucipir PET.

Use of Aposteriori Information in the Implementation of Radar Recognition Systems Using Neural Network Technologies
Authors: Beskostyi Dmitrii F. , Borovikov Sergei G. , Yastrebov Yurii V. , Sozontov Ilya A.
Published: December 2019

Introduction. The current need to obtain relevant, complete and reliable information about airborne objects has led to the continuous improvement of modern radar recognition systems (MRRS) as part of control systems. The development of modern MRRS has created objective prerequisites for the use of progressive and new methods and algorithms for the processing of signals using neural networks. The use of artificial neural networks with learning ability permits expansion to include many signs of recognition by using information obtained in the process of monitoring airspace.

Aim. To formulate the problem and develop proposals for the use of posterior information for airspace control in radar recognition systems using neural network technologies.

Materials and methods. Based on an analysis of the structure of a unified information network, an approach was formulated to facilitate the development of MRRS based on training technologies. Using the synthesis method, examples of technical solutions were proposed, which will allow the use of modern methods and signal processing algorithms using a posteriori information generated by the control system.

Results. The study identified the principles of neural network training in solving the recognition problem in the process of functioning of radio electronic equipment (REE). The technical solutions pro-posed take the functioning of the integrated radar system into account, allowing the information parameters required for training MRRS in a single information field to be obtained. It is shown that the removal of restrictions associated with the functional autonomy of REE, allows the use of posterior information in the implementation of radar recognition systems. This also allows for an increase in the number of recognition signs used in the algorithms and for the database of portraits to be replenished.

Conclusion. MRRS can be developed via training by removing the restrictions associated with the autonomous functioning of RES. This allows for the situational assessment to be enhanced and management decisions to be optimised.
Strobing of Radar Marks for Trajectory Filtration in a Body-Fixed Frame
Authors: Vasiliev Konstantin K. , Mattis Alexey V. , Saverkin Oleg V.
Published: December 2019

Introduction. Modern air targets, particularly drones, are becoming less noticeable, while their manoeuvrability continues to improve. Trajectory processing algorithms have also been improved in order to provide for effective tracking of highly manoeuvring targets. The accuracy of filtering trajectory parameters is largely determined by the reliability of radar information. This has also required an enhanced role for strobe algorithms and the need to increase the effectiveness of strobe radar marks.

Aim. To develop and investigate the efficiency of a trajectory strobe algorithm based on the target motion model in a high-speed coordinate system associated with the direction of the target motion and involving the formation of a strobe in the form of a truncated elliptical sector.

Materials and methods. The study considered the target motion model in the body-fixed frame. This model was taken as the basis for new trajectory filtering algorithms based on Kalman filtering. Existing methods for strobing radar marks of the target were considered and a new approach based on filtering in the body-fixed frame proposed. The new algorithm assumes the formation of a strobe in the form of a truncated elliptical sector. This form corresponds to the most probable location of the marks of the tracked target. The effectiveness of the proposed solutions is confirmed by the results of mathematical modelling carried out using MATLAB.

Results. The study produced analytical expressions for the motion model, recurrent filtering and strobe algorithm in the body-fixed frame. A comparative analysis of tracking effectiveness with the same volumes of the elliptical and proposed strobes was performed. It was established that the algorithm with strobe formation in the shape of a truncated elliptical sector provides for longer target tracking up to the time of the first loss of the mark for speed and highly manoeuvring targets, when compared to the elliptical strobe algorithm. In addition, the average duration of sector strobe tracking does not in practice depend on the initial speed of the target and provides greater accuracy for small measurement error values (less than 50 m) of the coordinates than in comparison with the elliptical one.

Conclusion. The described results were achieved by the ability of the strobe in the body-fixed frame to adapt to the direction of motion and target manoeuvring, allowing high-quality target tracking within a larger speed range. Such strobe formation will also reduce the likelihood of skip-ping radar marks from the tracked target and will reduce the number of false marks belonging to other trajectories inside the strobe.

This study aimed at developing a valid and reliable measurement tool to determine school image at high schools and investigating the discrimination level of the scale among the students from different high school types in Turkey. Two studies were conducted to a) develop a valid and reliable measurement tool and b) to examine the discrimination power of the scale among students. The research was conducted in a province in Southeastern Turkey, and 668 students from six different high schools participated in the research in the 2017-2018 academic year. The construct validity of the scale was probed via exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses. The findings indicated that the School Image Scale (SIS) incorporated six factors (school-parent interaction, art-sports activities, student profile, teacher-administrator characteristics, student support services, and physical conditions) and 28 items. Results of discriminant analysis carried out with 300 students from 5 different high schools revealed that the sub-dimensions of the scale were effective in distinguishing between high schools. The most effective independent variable in distinguishing students studying at different school types was student profile, physical conditions, art-sports activities, teacher-administrator characteristics, student support services, and school-parent interaction variables, respectively. The related independent variables were discussed in order of importance in light of the relevant literature.

Assessing the importance of Isle of Man waters for the basking shark Cetorhinus maximus
Authors: Dolton HR , Gell FR , Hall J , Hall G , Hawkes LA , Witt MJ
Published: December 2019

Satellite tracking of endangered or threatened animals can facilitate informed conservation by revealing priority areas for their protection. Basking sharks Cetorhinus maximus (n = 11) were tagged during the summers of 2013, 2015, 2016 and 2017 in the Isle of Man (IoM; median tracking duration 378 d, range: 89-804 d; median minimum straight-line distance travelled 541 km, range: 170-10406 km). Tracking revealed 3 movement patterns: (1) coastal movements within IoM and Irish waters, (2) summer northward movements to Scotland and (3) international movements to Morocco and Norway. One tagged shark was bycaught and released alive in the Celtic Sea. Basking sharks displayed inter-annual site fidelity to the Irish Sea (n = 3), a Marine Nature Reserve (MNR) in IoM waters (n = 1), and Moroccan waters (n = 1). Core distribution areas (50% kernel density estimation) of 5 satellite tracked sharks in IoM waters were compared with 3902 public sightings between 2005 and 2017, highlighting west and south coast hotspots. Location data gathered from satellite tagging broadly correspond to the current boundaries of MNRs in IoM waters. However, minor modifications of some MNR boundaries would incorporate ~20% more satellite tracking location data from this study, and protective measures for basking sharks in IoM waters could further aid conservation of the species at local, regional and international scales. We also show the first documented movement of a basking shark from the British Isles to Norway, and the longest ever track for a tagged basking shark (2 yr and 2 mo, 804 d).
Structure of Nursing Practice Implemented by Discharge Planning Nurses
in Support During Transition to Homecare; Focus on Multidisciplinary
Professional Case Conference Settings
Authors: Zensho Mariko
Published: December 2019

In order to organize the practices of hospital discharge planning nurses in the transition to homecare at a professional collaboration conference, 10 cases were surveyed, and were classified into 10 categories as a result of analysis by quoting GTA. They were: (1) Initial management of care-service planning by sharing issues associated with home-based care services. (2) Clarify the homebased care needs. (3) Detection of bewilderment in selection of care environment for families from complex patient/family backgrounds as well as their feeling of nursing burdens. (4) Extraction of multifaced issues associated with patients’ self-care through demonstration of multidisciplinary expertness. (5) Sharing of patients’ self-management methods associated with home-based drug therapy (6) Sharing issues for multidisciplinary collaboration/ cooperation along with feelings induced by expression of recognitions of patients and their families. (7) Planning of the home-based care support for the purpose of respite care. (8) Planning and assuring continuous provision of patient support through collaborations among individuals of the same profession in different divisions. (9) Encouragement of multidisciplinary participation in professional conferences supported by smooth collaboration among various professionals inside the hospital. (10) Reinforcement of their ability to identify characteristics of patients as local community members.

Multi-Objective Problems (MOPs) are common real-life problems that can be found in different fields, such as bioinformatics and scheduling. Pareto Optimization (PO) is a popular method for solving MOPs, which optimizes all objectives simultaneously. It provides an effective way to evaluate the quality of multi-objective solutions. Swarm Intelligence (SI) methods are population-based methods that generate multiple solutions to the problem, providing SI methods suitable for MOP solutions. SI methods have certain drawbacks when applied to MOPs, such as swarm leader selection and obtaining evenly distributed solutions over solution space. Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) is a recent SI method. In this paper, we propose combining WOA with Tabu Search (TS) for MOPs (MOWOATS). MOWOATS uses TS to store non-dominated solutions in elite lists to guide swarm members, which overcomes the swarm leader selection problem. MOWOATS employs crossover in both intensification and diversification phases to improve diversity of the population. MOWOATS proposes a new diversification step to eliminate the need for local search methods. MOWOATS has been tested over different benchmark multi-objective test functions, such as CEC2009, ZDT, and DTLZ. Results present the efficiency of MOWOATS in finding solutions near Pareto front and evenly distributed over solution space.

Deoxynivalenol (DON, vomitoxin) is considered one of the most dangerous mycotoxins contaminating cereal products for food and feed. One of the protective methods against the adverse effect of DON on mink health is to use a component such as bentonite as a feed supplement to allow toxins absorption. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of DON, administered alone or with bentonite, on the histological structure of the skin and the content of collagen and elastin. A multiparous minks from control group (not exposed to DON) and a study groups receiving fed with DON-containing wheat for seven months: I: at a concentration of 1.1 mg/kg of feed, II: at a concentration of 3.7 mg/kg, III: DON at a concentration of 3.7 mg/kg and bentonite at a concentration of 0.5 kg/1000 kg of feed (0.05%) and IV: DON at a concentration of 3.7 mg/kg and bentonite at a concentration 2 kg/1000 kg (0.2%). After performing euthanasia and before pelting, skin samples of 2 cm in diameter were drawn from the multiparous minks from the lateral surface of the right anterior limb. Our obtained results clearly indicate that DON administered for a period of seven months at a dose of 1.1 mg/kg significantly changes the thickness of skin of a multiparous mink. It causes an increase in the percentage of elastin from 5.9% to 9.4% and a decrease in immature collagen, which results in a change in the collagen/elastin ratio from 10/1 to 5/1. A dose of 3.7 mg/kg DON in feed without or with 0.05% bentonite causes the absence of immature collagen in the dermis, but the addition of 0.2% bentonite in the feed reveals the presence of immature collagen and increase the percentage of the elastin.
