Authors: Ojimelukwe Philippa Chinyere , Ukom Anthony
Published: September 2022

The sweet potato (Ipomea batatas L Lam) is a famine crop with great potentials to supply energy and curb hidden hunger in developing countries. It is the only major root crop (often used as vegetable) with four nutrients that exceed 10% of the recommended daily amount (vitamin A/beta carotene; vitamin C; Fiber and potassium) Commendable research efforts have been dedicated to developing improved varieties of sweet potatoes for pest resistance; yield; stress tolerance; dry matter content; carotenoids (xanthophyll and pro-vitamin A) and mineral content. This paper presents an update on the research status on sweet potatoes and highlights areas for further research for the sustainable use of this cheap source of bioenergy and nutrients as a food security crop. Bio-fortification rather than transgenic research methods has been found to be more suitable for the incorporation of novel nutrients into the crop. Factors that affect the nutrient density and yield of sweet potatoes include: soil nutrient management practices, vine pruning and planting distances. Although they have seeds, sweet potatoes are better propagated with vine cuttings. The level of adoption of orange fleshed sweet potatoes is still low and the problems of seasonality, high costs of good quality planting materials, diversification of value added products and complexity of the production technique for the rural farmer need to be addressed. This crop requires improved research efforts for sustainable food security in developing countries.

Background: Cardiovascular complications after lower extremity revascularization (LER) are common in diabetic patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and chronic limb threatening ischemia (CLTI). The Klotho-FGF23-CPP axis is associated with endothelial injury and cardiovascular risk.The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between Klotho-FGF23-CPP serum levels and the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and major adverse limb events (MALE) after LER in diabetic patients with PAD and CLTI.Methods: Baseline levels of Klotho, FGF23, and CPP, and their association with subsequent incidence of MACE and MALE were analyzed in a prospective, non-randomized study in a population of diabetic patients with PAD and CLTI requiring LER.Results: A total of 220 patients were followed for 12 months after LER. Sixty-three MACE and 122 MALE were recorded during follow-up period. Baseline lower Klotho serum levels (295.3 ± 151.3 pg/mL vs 446.4 ± 171.7 pg/mL, p<0.01), whereas increased serum levels FGF23 (75.0 ± 11.8 pg/mL vs 53.2 ± 15.4 pg/mL, p<0.01) and CPP (461.8 ± 168.6 pg/mL vs 269.3 ± 184.3 pg/mL, p<0.01) were significantly associated with the development of MACE. ROC analysis confirmed the predictive power of the Klotho-FGF23-CPP axis. Furthermore, decreased Klotho serum levels were associated with the occurrence of MALE after LER (329.1 ± 136.8 pg/mL vs 495.4 ± 183.9 pg/mL, p<0.01).Conclusions: Klotho-FGF23-CPP axis imbalance is a potential biomarker for increased cardiovascular risk after LER in diabetic patients with PAD and CLTI.

This study re-assesses the historical records pertaining to activity of Mt. Baekdu according to volcanic phenomena. We categorized volcanic phenomena into five categories: rumbling, atmospheric abnormality, ash rain, ash cloud and phenomenon sightings, and investigated historical records (in Chinese) for each phenomenon and identified their volcanological implications. Among the volcanic phenomena, ash rain had the most records, and in particular, Goryeosa recorded the ash rain phenomenon 56 times. And more than 90 volcanic eruptions were discovered from the Millennium Eruption from November 3, 946 AD to February 7, 947 AD, most of which were either Plinian or Vulcanian eruptions with volcanic ash dispersed into the regions surrounding the volcano creating fallout ash. Based on the historical eruptions, eruption precursors, and volcanic unrest of the volcano between 2002 and 2006, Mt. Baekdu is regarded as an active volcano that has the potential to erupt. Therefore, in order to mitigate the hazard caused by the eruption of Mt. Baekdu, it is necessary to analyse the historical eruption records of Mt. Baekdu and to understand the characteristics of the eruptions through this analyzation.

Polyurethane foams are widely used commodity materials, but most of them end up in landfills at the end of their life, which is not in line with the circular economy approach. Here we introduce microwave-assisted aminolysis as an efficient chemical recycling process for polyurethane foams. Amino reagents containing primary and tertiary amino groups in the structure, which act both as a reagent and a catalyst, are shown to be particularly effective in degrading urethane groups in the foam structure. The recycled polyols have structural and molar mass characteristics that basically make them perfect analogues of the corresponding virgin polyether polyols. Therefore, the production of high-quality polyurethane foams exclusively from the recycled polyols is possible without having to adapt the synthesis process. The flexible foams synthesised from recycled polyols have comparable mechanical properties to those produced from virgin polyols, which has not been achieved with any recycled polyol so far.

A cost effective technique is presented to determine the dynamic factor of reinforced concrete deck slab through experiment and simulations. The experiments were conducted on a one-fourth scale prototype model of a pre-existing railway bridge deck slab of size 645 x 565 x 86 mm against static and transient dynamic loading. The average measured experimental peak force from the static and transient dynamic tests was found to be 99 and 145.7 kN, respectively. A numerical simulation was conducted to evaluate the dynamic factor using ABAQUS finite element software. It was observed that the results obtained from simulations were in confidence with the experimental results as well as codal provisions and the dynamic factor obtained from the experiment and simulation was found to be 1.47 and 1.52, respectively. Further, the influence of length of deck slab, mass and velocity of impactor on the prediction of the dynamic factor using a finite element analysis and statistical method were studied. The statistical model was proposed in terms of regression equation using Response Surface Methodology and the section offering maximum resistance were optimized using the analysis of variance. The predicted response of deck slab in terms of impact force through finite element simulations were compared with the statistical approach. Overall, it was observed that the predicted peak impact force is found in good agreement with the statistical method. It was concluded that the span was found to be 4.58 m offering highest resistance against 8.1 m/s velocity with the mass of 14.53 Tons among the various chosen cases and the most conservative value of dynamic factor was found to be 2.81 and 2.74 using statistical and FE simulations, respectively.

Pinus pseudostrobus Lindl. is one of the most widely propagated species in Mexico for reforestation, agroforestry, and commercial timber plantations because of the quality of its wood and its rapid growth. Among the physical and chemical methods to improve the effectiveness of germination, stimulation with radiation has shown positive effects on seed germination and seedling growth in several species. However, there are not many studies that have explored the radiohormetic effect on germination, survival, and seedling quality in conifers. Therefore, the present study was carried out with the objective of evaluating the radiohormetic effects of the use of low doses of linear accelerator on the germination capacity, growth, and quality of seedlings as well as the chlorophyll content of P. pseudostrobus for the purpose of reforestation and the establishment of forest plantations. A total of 720 seeds were taken to be irradiated with doses of 0, 0.5, 1.5, 1.5, 3, 5, and 7.5 Gy, in the linear accelerator Elekta Synergy Platform. For each dose, four replicates of 30 seeds each were used. It was determined that all the doses used increased the number of germinated seeds and showed an increase in seedling growth with respect to the control. The plant quality indexes showed that the doses of 0.5, 1.5, and 3.0 Gy contributed most to obtaining plants with larger aerial and root parts, but with a balanced conformation and a great capacity for the formation of new roots, which will help to present better levels of survival.

Agroforestry is an important alternative in land management systems to improve rural livelihoods. Timber and Non-timber Forest Products (NTFPs) have been the most important components in the agroforestry system, and to rural villagers’ household income portfolio including in Kivuuvu Parish, Maanyi Subcounty in Mityana District. However, the management strategies for tree components at household level has been quite inadequate resulting in low benefit margins for the farmers. These are eventually perceived by the small scale tree farmers as poor and unattractive incentives that has led many to abandon the practice of tree growing on farm. The study helps the farmers to identify the key action points to emphasize in on-farm tree management where efforts can be directed and tangible benefits realized and livelihoods impacted positively. Direct farmer interviews of 12 tree farmers were conducted covering the villages of Buyobe, Gulejja, Kabayenga, Kivuvuu, Kyetuuzo, Maanyi, and Nakulamudde. These were purposively selected from both large scale and small scale categories as well as hilly and gentle slopping landscapes. Results indicated that tree growth was very slow with tree rotation exceeding 20 years for common tree varieties such ad Eucalyptus grandis grown for timber. A wide variety of tree species were also incorporated into farmlands for food, fuel, fodder, medicine and aesthetic values. The study uncovered the indiscretions in tree species selection for different cropping systems as well as landscapes. Important tree management practices such as pruning, fertilizer application and thinning were also not done resulting into poor tree performance. This significantly reduces the farmer’s income and economic livelihood. The study recommended the intervention of the District Forestry Services and other NGOs to increase the community’s access to improved tree varieties such as eucalyptus clones and also disseminate the knowledge appropriate tree management practices as per the SPGS tree growing standards.
