Authors: Beaton Kumbirai , Chikwambi Zedias , Svotwa Ezekia , Mupfiga Upenyu
Published: April 2022

Aim The efficiency of production depends greatly on knowledge of the
plant’s performance (including stress tolerance, nutritional quality and
overall yield) and genetics. The review was aimed at gathering
information on the conservation of banana germplasm and its potential in
breeding programs. Finding out whether banana cultivars being grown in
Zimbabwe have been characterized both genetically and morphologically
thus creating a catalogue and also assessing production and its impact
in Zimbabwean economy. The evaluation of species distribution models
that can better extrapolate production to new area within the country.
Location Zimbabwe Methods Obtaining information on banana production in
Zimbabwe has been done through phone call inquires to research stations
and plantations, face to face inquires and literature search on
peer-reviewed publications and also greys literature. Results
Information obtained through database search was extremely limited.
Literature citing banana production in Zimbabwe was not greater than
0.00028%. Interaction with farmers and the department of Agricultural,
Technical and Extension Services (AGRITEX) Officers yielded better
results showing a clear picture of undocumented relevant banana
information. Main Conclusion Characterization of Musa Spp. is a
necessity for germplasm conservation, breeding and improved banana
production. Currently, there is vast literature on characterized banana
accessions across the globe, but limited publicly available information
concerning accessions in Zimbabwe. Banana production in Zimbabwe is
concentrated in the warm and humid areas and similar climatic conditions
are found in areas dotted across Zimbabwe. Using species distribution
models, cultivars can be mapped to new environments and this in return
expands production area in the country. In so doing, cultivars digital
maps are created for ease of banana information access. Cultivar maps
and biological information from multi-locational gene banks has great
potential for use in banana production improvement programs.

The Effect of Analyst Conservatism on Meeting the Consensus via Earnings Management
Authors: Bjornsen Matt , Brockbank Bryan G. , Prentice Jaclyn D.
Published: April 2022

SYNOPSIS

Conservative analysts react more to negative news than positive news, and the market response is greater for forecast revisions from conservative analysts (Hugon and Muslu 2010; Keskek and Tse 2018). Little is known about how firms and managers respond to a lower benchmark resulting from having a more conservative analyst following. We examine the effect of analyst conservatism on firms just meeting or beating the benchmark via accrual-based earnings management. We find that firms with a more conservative analyst following have lower earnings benchmarks and are more likely to just meet or beat the consensus. Additionally, these firms meet the lower benchmark with lower levels of earnings management, with this effect being strongest in poor information environments. Collectively, our results suggest that management’s benchmark meeting behavior is impacted by the conservatism of the firm’s analyst following.

Published: April 2022

Objective: Understanding mechanisms underlying rapid estimated
glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decline is important to predict and treat
kidney disease in type 1 diabetes (T1D).

Research Design and Methods: We performed a
case-control study nested within four T1D cohorts to identify urinary proteins
associated with rapid eGFR decline. Cases and controls were defined by eGFR
decline >3 and <1 ml/min/1.73m2/year, respectively. We used
targeted liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry to measure 38 peptides
from 20 proteins implicated in diabetic kidney disease. Significant proteins
were investigated in complementary human cohorts and in mouse proximal tubular
epithelial cell cultures.

Results: The cohort study
included 1270 participants followed a median 8 years. In the discovery set,
only cathepsin D peptide and protein were significant on full adjustment for
clinical and laboratory variables. In the validation set, associations of
cathepsin D with eGFR decline were replicated in minimally-adjusted models but
lost significance with adjustment for albuminuria. In a meta-analysis combining
discovery and validation sets, the odds ratio for the association of cathepsin
D with rapid eGFR decline was 1.29 per SD (95%CI 1.07-1.55). In complementary human
cohorts, urine cathepsin D was associated with tubulointerstitial injury, and tubulointerstitial
cathepsin D expression was associated with increased cortical interstitial
fractional volume. In mouse proximal tubular epithelial cell cultures, advanced
glycation end product-bovine serum albumin increased cathepsin D activity and inflammatory
and tubular injury markers, which were further increased with cathepsin D siRNA.

Conclusion: Urine cathepsin D is associated with rapid eGFR
decline in T1D and reflects kidney tubulointerstitial injury.
DOC2b Enhances β-Cell Function Via A Novel Tyrosine Phosphorylation-Dependent Mechanism
Authors: Bhowmick Diti Chatterjee , Aslamy Arianne , Bhattacharya Supriyo , Oh Eunjin , Ahn Miwon , Thurmond Debbie C.
Published: April 2022

Double C2 Domain Β (DOC2b) protein is required
for glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) in β-cells, the underlying
mechanism of which remains unresolved. Our biochemical analysis using primary
human islets, human and rodent clonal β-cells revealed that DOC2b is tyrosine
phosphorylated within 2 minutes of glucose stimulation, and Src family kinase member
YES is required for this process. Biochemical and functional analysis using DOC2bY301
mutants revealed the requirement of Y301 phosphorylation for the interaction of
DOC2b with YES kinase and increased content of VAMP2, a protein on insulin
secretory granules, at the plasma membrane (PM), concomitant with DOC2b-mediated
enhancement of GSIS in β-cells. Co-immunoprecipitation studies demonstrated an increased
association of DOC2b with ERM family proteins in β-cells following glucose
stimulation or pervanadate-treatment. Y301 phosphorylation-competent DOC2b was
required to increase ERM protein activation, and ERM protein knockdown impaired
DOC2b-mediated boosting of GSIS, suggesting that tyrosine-phosphorylated DOC2b regulates
GSIS via ERM-mediated granule localization to the PM. Taken together, these
results demonstrate the glucose-induced post-translational modification of
DOC2b in β-cells, pinpointing the kinase, site of action, and downstream
signaling events revealing a regulatory role of YES kinase at various steps in GSIS.
This work will enhance the development of novel therapeutic strategies to
restore glucose homeostasis in diabetes.

Obesity is a major
concern for global healthcare systems. Systemic low-grade inflammation in
obesity is a major risk factor for insulin resistance. Leptin is an adipokine
secreted by the adipose tissue that functions by controlling food intake,
leading to satiety. Leptin levels are increased in obesity. Here, we show that
leptin enhances the effects of LPS in macrophages, intensifying the production
of cytokines, glycolytic rates and morphological and functional changes in the
mitochondria through an mTORC2-dependent, mTORC1-independent mechanism. Leptin also boosts
the effects of IL-4 in macrophages, leading to increased oxygen consumption,
expression of macrophage markers associated with a tissue repair phenotype, and
wound healing. In vivo,
hyperleptinemia caused by diet-induced obesity increases the inflammatory
response by macrophages. Deletion of leptin receptor and subsequently of leptin
signaling in myeloid cells (ObR-/-) is sufficient to improve insulin
resistance in obese mice and decrease systemic inflammation. Our results
indicate that leptin acts as a systemic nutritional checkpoint to regulate
macrophage fitness and contributes to obesity-induced inflammation and insulin
resistance. Thus, specific interventions aimed at downstream modulators of leptin
signaling may represent new therapeutic targets to treat obesity-induced
systemic inflammation.

Authors: Ishikawa Emi , Iwamoto Rie , Hojo Takayuki , Teshirogi Takahito , Hashimoto Keiji , Shibuya Makiko , Kimura Yukifumi , Fujisawa Toshiaki
Published: April 2022

Objective:

The incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) after general anesthesia with total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) was reported to be significantly lower than with volatile inhalational agents (13.3% vs 25%). However, no investigation of PONV risk factors associated with TIVA has ever been reported. This cross-sectional retrospective study aimed to investigate whether known risk factors influenced PONV in intubated general anesthetics utilizing TIVA for dental or oral and maxillofacial surgery.

Methods:

Subjects were 761 patients who underwent dental or oral and maxillofacial surgery under TIVA with propofol, fentanyl, and remifentanil. Univariate and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed using PONV (within 24 hours) as the dependent variable and previously reported risk factors as independent variables.

Results:

Age (odds ratio [OR]: 1.020 per year decrease; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.0002–1.0418; P = .047) and female sex (OR: 2.73; 95% CI: 1.60–4.84; P < .001) were positively associated with PONV. Sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO) (OR: 2.28; 95% CI: 1.21–4.33; P = .011) and bimaxillary osteotomy (OR: 5.69; 95% CI: 2.09–15.99; P < .001) were more likely to be associated with PONV than operations that were neither bimaxillary osteotomy nor SSRO. Late PONV (2–24 hours) had an ∼2.7 times higher incidence than early PONV (0–2 hours).

Conclusion:

These findings suggest further PONV countermeasures, aside from TIVA with propofol and prophylactic antiemetics for orthognathic surgeries especially bimaxillary osteotomy, are needed.

Planejar com a Paisagem
Authors: Ragonha Jéssica , Schenk Luciana Bongiovanni Martins
Published: April 2022

Ao longo do histórico de práticas relevantes de Planejamento Urbano e Regional em nível nacional e internacional, observa-se que muitas vezes a paisagem foi tomada como elemento fundamental para se pensar o ordenamento do território. Desde as primeiras propostas de inserção do verde na cidade, com o nascente Urbanismo no século XIX, até o desenvolvimento de alternativas de planejamento para a região, distintas abordagens que tomavam a paisagem e suas questões se consolidaram enquanto modelo de intervenção territorial. O que esse artigo se propõe a desvendar é justamente esse contato e a interação entre paisagem e planejamento, em um recorte que percorre as práticas ocorridas nos Estados Unidos e na Europa desde o final do século XIX até o século XX. Nessa trajetória, revela-se uma perspectiva metodológica histórica desse campo de conhecimento ligado à paisagem: uma estratégia que se alicerça no necessário trânsito entre escalas, da regional à local, para o conhecimento e intervenção em um território. Essa perspectiva que promove a chamada multiescale nos países de língua inglesa em muito contribui para a compreensão da complexidade do território, bem como para a qualificação do processo de planejamento e projeto das intervenções sobre o fenômeno na contemporaneidade.

Authors: Kosirova S. , Rubintova D. , Lacka J. , Klimas J. , Foltanova T. , Tumova I.
Published: April 2022

AIM

The aim of the study was to evaluate cardiovascular risk in patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 according to gender.

METHODS

The monitoring was designed as a retrospective analysis of data obtained from the documentation of the diabetic outpatients treated with the dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP4is) or sodium–glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2). Cardiovascular risk was assessed according to UKPDS risk engine.

RESULTS

The levels of HbA1c decreased throughout the whole study. Sixty per cent of patients achieved an HbA1c level <8% after 18 months. Both men and women had similar glycaemic compensation. Men had a significantly higher risk of fatal coronary heart disease (CHD) (p < 0.001), stroke (p < 0.01) and fatal stroke (p < 0.01) compared to women. We found the risk of fatal CHD to be 38-fold higher in men compared to women (p < 0.01).

CONCLUSION

Potential cardiovascular effects of antidiabetic treatment should be clearly defined with possible different effects according to gender. We found a much higher risk in men than women, even when their glycaemic compensation was comparable.

Stigma Music of Human Life in Indonesia Orchestral Music
Authors: Simanullang Pernandus
Published: April 2022

Music continues to surround human life from time to time; music is inextricably linked to human life from the moment man is born. Music also plays a role in bringing changes to human life in a better direction and maybe vice versa. In our daily lives, we cannot avoid the sounds or vibrations that come to our ears through the strains of music. Our lives are approached by music wherever we are. Music is a part of our lives. The researcher here wants to find out more about how the music process develops over time and its stigma to the operation of social change in society with the concept of musicology with qualitative methods, where the stigma of music tends to go, how researcher wants to better understand music by using methods of theoretical anthropological studies from time to time until the birth of music, on the other hand, what changes happen after the music is born. Stigma against music has certainly affected social life in society. Stigma towards more popular music such as orchestral music is one of the music whose bearer style is more likely to be passionate in the listener. Here the author wants to invite the music listener community to hear and explore the meaning of music and bring an appreciation stigma to his life. In addition, the author seeks to confirm that the music listener community can listen and explore the meaning of music and bring a positive stigma to his life. In addition, the author also would like the songwriters to explore more songs that stigmatize music by continuing to support people's appetite for a better humanity.

Published: April 2022

The Prognostic and Health Management (PHM) becomes a research topic in its own right and tends to be more and more visible within the scientific community such as in Nasa Society, which has provided datasets for experiments. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the performance of a data-driven prognostic technique used for predicting Remaining Useful Life (RUL). The methodological support of the proposed approach integrates all data-driven prognostic sequential steps merged in offline and online part. To design the predictive degradation model on the offline part, the Relevance Vector Machine (RVM) algorithm was applied. On the online part, prediction of the RUL is based on the Similarity-Based Interpolation (SBI) algorithm. The different steps of the methodology are described and their implementation undertaken through a case study involving the degradation dataset of turbofan engines from the Commercial Modular Aero-Propulsion System Simulation (C-MAPSS). Finally, results are compared with other techniques applied on the same dataset.

Published: April 2022

The present work displays an extensive numerical analysis for the thermo-hydrodynamic (THD) behavior in finite length journal bearings lubricated with different types of nano-lubricants considering cavitation effect. The effects of nanoparticle concentrations, cavitation and temperature rise on the performance parameters of such bearings have been explored. The bearing is simulated using Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) approach. The effect of using different types of nano-lubricants with different volume fractions of TiO2 and Al2O3 nanoparticles dispersed in Veedol Avalon ISO Viscosity grade 46 oil has been demonstrated. Modified Krieger-Dougherty equation has been implemented with the thermal viscosity model to to evaluate the oil effective viscosity. The obtained results show that concerning the TiO2 nanoparticles results in a higher oil film pressure and load carrying capacity in comparison with Al2O3. The bearing equilibrium position was obtained by using Response Surface analysis (RSA) with optimal space-filling design technique. The numerical model was validated by comparing the results obtained in the present work with that obtained by Feron et al. The results were found to be in a good confirmation. The attained results show that the maximum pressure grows by 21% when the bearing is lubricated with nano-lubricant.

Published: April 2022

In an ultrasound-guided needle insertion, physicians should adjust a certain insertion angle and the position of the transducer to ensure that the initial point and final target are in-plane inside the imaging plane. One of the crucial problems in this interventional procedure is poor and inconsistent needle visibility in B-mode ultrasound. In this research, some potential physical parameters, i.e., ultrasound frequency, the incident angle of the ultrasound beam, needle density, and dimension, are investigated through analytical modeling based on the resonance scattering model to understand their behavior in affecting needle visibility. 25G non-echogenic needle is used as a model object and assumed as stainless-steel hollow cylinder insonified by oblique incident plane wave varied within the frequency of 0–10 MHz and incident angle of 0°–45°. The results suggest that those physical parameters simultaneously affect the occurrence possibility of the resonant modes, which eventually affect the total scattering pressure field Ps in a non-linear way. These observed behaviors in the form of the spectrum map of resonance scattering pressure amplitude can be used to adapt a more beneficial combination of those physical parameters to obtain a higher possibility of good needle visibility through practical insertion application and potential echogenic technology or adaptive beamforming.
NUMERICAL ANALYSIS OF REINFORCED CONCRETE BEAM-COLUMN JOINT UNDER ACCIDENTAL IMPACT
Authors: Savin Sergey
Published: April 2022

The purpose of this study is to create a universal computational model of a plane-stressed joint element, which could be implemented as a special finite element of the beam-column subassembly integrated into the FEA procedure to improve its accuracy. The combination both of the finite element method and the finite difference method has been accepted to simulate the structural behavior of monolithic reinforced concrete joints of building frames. The finite difference method is used directly for analysis the stress-strain state of a 2D stressed member of a monolithic joint, and the FEM is used for preliminary obtaining the conditions on the contour of this plane stressed member. The proposed model allows considering the discrete reinforcement, as well as the disruption of the adhesion of the reinforcing bars to concrete matrix along the contact surface. For the purposes of implementing the model, an algorithm for the stress-strain state analysis of the beam-column joint is proposed. An example of calculating an experimental frame unit based on the proposed approach is considered.
