Authors: Feng Zhiming , Huang Jian , Jin Shan , Wang Guanqi , Chen Leo
Published: September 2021

Proton exchange membrane fuel cells
(PEMFCs) are promising devices for conversing chemical energy into electrical
energy due to their versatile properties, such as high power density, quick
start-up, lower operating temperature, and portability, etc. For PEMFC
technology to outperform the incumbent technologies, artificial intelligence
(AI) based multi-objective optimisation (AI-MOO) has been employed to facilitate
the design and applications of PEMFC since AI-MOO is flexible enough to consider
various factors simultaneously in the customized multiple objective functions
and under new or updated case situations. This review provides a comprehensive
literature survey on AI-MOO employed in PEMFC field. Firstly, AI-MOO were introduced in detail,
including the definition, categories and framework. Then the objectives,
intelligent algorithms and trade-off methods that are commonly used in PEMFC were
tabularised and evaluated. The
application of AI-MOO in PEMFC were summarised systematically based on the
application areas, including the PEMFC components, kinetics and thermodynamics,
control and monitoring systems, the overall performance, and the hybrid systems.
The related studies were tabularised and discussed, especially algorithms,
variables, objectives and optimisation results. Finally, this review addressed the current challenges in the
research area and proposed research implications for future investigations.
Quantum codes via binary codes over symbol-pair metric
Authors: Jha Vatsal Pramod , Parampalli Udaya , Singh Abhay Kumar
Published: September 2021

Stabilizer codes, introduced in \cite{gottesman}, \cite{GF(4)}, have been a prominent example of quantum codes constructed via classical codes. The paper \cite{GF(4)}, introduces the stabilizer formalism for obtaining additive quantum codes of length n from Hermitian self-orthogonal codes of length n over GF(4). In the present work, we present a few stabilizer code constructions considering binary codes over the symbol-pair metric (see \cite{sp}). Specifically, the present work constructs additive quantum codes of length n from certain binary codes of length n considered over the symbol-pair metric. We also present the Modified CSS Construction which is used to obtain quantum codes with parameters $[[15,$ $4,$ $3\leq d\leq7]]$, $[[31,$ $10,$ $5\leq d\leq9]]$, $[[62,$ $20,$ $5\leq d]]$, $[[63,$ $18,$ $7\leq d]]$.
The use of biotechnology in hop (Humulus lupulus L.) improvement
Authors: Faragó Juraj , Pšenáková Ivana , Faragová Natália
Published: September 2021

Hop (Humulus lupulus L.) is a clonally propagated, dioecious, perennial, climbing plant used commercially for their secondary metabolites. The resins containing α- and β-acids, and essential oils produced by the lupulin glands, present on the female flowers are used to add bitterness, aroma and flavour to beer. Recently, flavonoids, including chalcones and flavanones, of hops have been shown to exert a variety of biological activities, including oestrogenic and anticancerogenic characteristics. In this review, we provide a overview of the techniques and opportunities presented by the integration of plant biotechnology into hop improvement. The use of tissue culture techniques such as micropropagation, meristem culture, in vitro storage, adventitious shoot induction, callus culture and cell suspension culture in hops are briefly reviewed. The usefullness of genetic transformation technology to introduce novel traits into hop is also discussed.
Current calculation of irreversible electrode reaction mechanismsin linear sweep voltammetry
Authors: Mocák Ján , Rábarová Estera
Published: September 2021

Application of exponential infinite series gives highly accurate analytical solution contributing to the theory of linear sweep voltammetry for single scan experiments. We have calculated theoretical dimensionless current function (usually denoted as π1/2χ(bt)) at relevant potentials for irreversible charge transfer without a coupled chemical reaction. For this purpose several transformation techniques were used, which convert the derived infinite series into summable sequences. Since infinite series of further electrochemical mechanisms with irreversible electrode reaction have similar features (particularly those comprising preceding and catalytic chemical reaction), the same approach can be successfully applied also for further electrochemical mechanisms. The respective infinite series are divergent in the most important potential region at and after voltammetric peak therefore their transformation by Epsilon and Levin transform techniques was used. Necessary arbitrary precision arithmetic (APA) was implemented by UBASIC. The results were compared to the customary solution of Nicholson and Shain, who computed the current-potential curves by means of numerical solution of the integral equations but with a much lower precision. Our results were obtained in a broad potential range including the potential regions where the series are divergent. Obtained current functions are precise to 12 valid decimal numbers, which is utilizable for evaluation of the results achieved by various faster but less precise digital simulation techniques.
Evaluar para conocer: la evaluación de docentes en ejercicio
Authors: Granés José
Published: September 2021

Quizás la mayor dificultad en la realización de la evaluación de los docentes en ejercicio es la conexión que se ha establecido entre ella y los estímulos y las sanciones. La evaluación, al menos la que se liga a la construcción del mapa pedagógico, debe hacerse separadamente de la asignación de premios y la aplicación de sanciones. Es necesario diferenciar entre una evaluación permanente que es responsabilidad de las autoridades educativas y la evaluación orientada al conocimiento de la práctica pedagógica en el país.

Ciudad, educación y escuela
Authors: Moncada Cardona Ramón
Published: September 2021

El tema de la Ciudad Educadora, la relación escuela y ciudad y experiencias realizadas en la ciudad de Medellín, encuentran identidad con la Cátedra de Pedagogía: “Bogotá: una gran escuela” desarrollada por el IDEP. Ciudad y educación son conceptos considerados históricamente como inseparables, en donde la cultura se posiciona como “progenitora” de la educación, y así mismo de la cultura ciudadana.Textualmente “Hoy más que nunca la ciudad, grande o pequeña, dispone de incontables posibilidades educadoras”; de allí la relación que el autor hace entre programas de ciudades educadoras realizados en el mundo, para llegar a la Ciudad Educadora en Colombia, en donde el derecho a la ciudad es un nuevo derecho ciudadano. De igual forma, el texto trabaja sobre la relación escuela-comunidad-entorno y ciudad: “es la escuela que trabaja y se articula con proyectos que elabora con la comunidad y para benefi cio de esa comunidad”. Posteriormente son señalados algunos criterios pedagógicos que ayudan a fundamentar la relación escuela y ciudad como el diálogo de saberes, la interdisciplinariedad, reciprocidad y alteridad, transversalidad curricular y escolar, y la historicidad de los procesos sociales. La Ley General de Educación de 1994 y sus desarrollos posteriores indican exigencias para que los Proyectos Educativos Institucionales, PEI, incluyan en sus propósitos su relación con el contexto como factor de evaluación de las instituciones escolares. Un anexo está dedicado a reseñar cómo en Medellín el programa de Ciudad Educadora fue incluido (1996-1998) en el Plan Estratégico de Medellín y el Área Metropolitana y de allí sus posteriores evoluciones, previstas hasta el año 2007. Una detallada bibliografía complementa el artículo.

In higher education, teaching cybersecurity concepts to students such as encryption-based security protocols is a challenging task, but it is fundamental for personal and national security. One of the reasons for this is related to the inadequate mathematical knowledge of students, which limits their understanding of the cryptographic algorithms underlying the protocols. Therefore, higher education institutions are seeking out engaging and effective strategies for developing students’ skills in this area. The aim of this research is to explore the use and potential effectiveness of game-based learning to assist in the teaching and learning of cybersecurity concepts in higher education. It contributes to the literature by raising public interest in cybersecurity and helping learners to understand suitable and safe behaviors online. It also offers a systematic overview of game-based learning tools that have been used in previous studies to improve students’ understanding of cryptographic algorithms. This research also presents a framework for the effective teaching of cryptography in higher education, relying on animation and gamification.

Published: September 2021

This research projects examine the impact of HIV among urban Aboriginal women living with HIV in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Despite the antiretroviral tereatment and HIV prevention strategies, new HIV positive cases for urban Abvoriginal women are increasing. Previous studies have failed to address the disparities of urban Aboriginal women living with HIV. Attempting to understand the lived experiences of urban Aboriginal women living with HIV, Indigenous methodologies, storytelling and talking circles were used for data collection. Incorporating the natural law of respect, the women in this project are acknowledged as the experts or knowledge keepers of HIV. This project is a way of reclaiming traditional knowledge. To reclaim our tradition, we need to decolonize ourselves, our thoughts of where we came from, who we are and where we are going. Stating our identity, as women, mothers and grandmothers, we can pick up our medicine bundles. In doing this, we establish our traditional resposibilities as iskewewak (women) in caring for our people through the achimo (story) of the seven sacred teachings. This research project is like digging up ancestral roots of knowledge or reclaiming our achimowak (stories), ka is kisiskenitamen (ways of knowing), ka is totaman (ways of doing),ekwa ka is itastasiwin (ways of being). We are the agents of change, the shapeshifters creating a paradigm shift in research. This is my medicine story.
Reforming Local Government Administration: A Case from Jordan
Authors: Tbaishat Rami
Published: September 2021

This study aims to analyze the attitude and vision of a random sample (400) of heads and individuals of local unit's staff, Mayors and employees of municipalities, leaders of provincial departments to the degree of difficulties confronting Local Administration Units (LAUs) in Jordan to identify the significant effective reform techniques to reform such problems. In this study, qualitative approaches were adopted. A total of thirty individuals were purposively sampled for in-depth and face-to-face consultations, with particular emphasis on identifying the major effective strategies of reform. The study outcome established that the local administration in Jordan is confronted, to a severe extent, with the accompanying difficulties: capacity building, budgetary problems, environmental protection responsiveness, and public participation. The study established that the absence of monetary resources and the lack of local units' sovereignty in managing resident funding is another major challenge. The last challenge was accounted for capacity building. The improvement of an environmental control framework to reduce pollution, creating an effective mechanism to bridge the relationship between municipalities and citizens, the abandonment of central pre-checking frameworks, expanded government budgetary support, and the strengthening of training and development of employees are the absolute most significant reform actions need to be addressed to solve the problems confronting LAUs.

PEDAGOGICAL CONDITIONS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY IN STUDENTS OF EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS
Authors:   Samara Law Institute of the Federal Penitentiary Service (Federal Penitentiary Service) of Russia, Asafiev M.I.
Published: September 2021

This article contains a description of the pedagogical process, during which a student of an educational institution of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia is assigned the necessary moral qualities. The goals and the need for instilling social responsibility are inextricably linked with the tasks of the penal system, it is believed that a future employee of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia must meet the established requirements to achieve the goal of the service. While developing, the system needs new trained and professionally qualified personnel able to carry out their duties in conditions of risk, the presence of certain difficulties due to the specifics of this service. The presence of criteria for evaluating a cadet, and then an employee, forms the educational process, which must meet the training criteria, as well as the methods used in education. Social responsibility is a combination of not only knowledge, but also skills, leaves an imprint on both the personality and the prestige of the service, as well as other employees, therefore it is so important to pay attention to this aspect when developing a personality. Problematic issues in training cadets are equipped, components that help assess the level of social responsibility are listed. The relationship of an individual cadet with society and its strata, the influence of society on the consciousness of the individual is considered. The essence of one of the most important methods of upbringing is revealed - the method of collective responsibility, which allows you to monitor the student's performance in performing a specific task to achieve a common goal. Do not forget that a person is a link in society that functions for the common good, but if we are talking about certain statuses of a person, namely an employee of a particular state system or administration, then in this case the issue of social responsibility predetermines the attitude towards service and direct duties of the employee. It seems possible to introduce the obtained materials into guidelines for teachers, and the scientific article is analytical in nature: the results obtained also affect the psychological situation of the team and interpersonal relationships in it.
Heat Transfer Process with Solid-solid Interface: Analytical and Numerical Solutions
Authors: Rubio Diana , Tarzia Domingo A. , Umbricht Guillermo F.
Published: September 2021

This work is aimed at the study and analysis of the heat transport on a metal bar of length L with a solid-solid interface. The process is assumed to be developed along one direction, across two homogeneous and isotropic materials. Analytical and numerical solutions are obtained under continuity conditions at the interface, that is a perfect assembly. The lateral side is assumed to be isolated and a constant thermal source is located at the left-boundary while the right-end stays free allowing the heat to transfer to the surrounding fluid by a convective process. The differences between the analytic solution and temperature measurements at any point on the right would indicate the presence of discontinuities. The greater these differences, the greater the discontinuity in the interface due to thermal resistances, providing a measure of its propagation from the interface and they could be modeled as temperature perturbations. The problem of interest may be described by a parabolic equation with initial, interface and boundary conditions, where the thermal properties, the conductivity and diffusivity coefficients, are piecewise constant functions. The analytic solution is derived by using Fourier methods. Special attention is given to the Sturm-Liouville problem that arises when deriving the solution, since a complicated eigenvalue equation must to be solved. Numerical simulations are conducted by using finite difference schemes where its convergence and stability properties are discussed along with physical interpretations of the results.

Authors: Hemlata Pandey  , Sumit K. Chaudhary  , Harish Pathak  , Emilio Nuzzolese
Published: September 2021

The robust nature of teeth and their ability to resist destruction, make them indispensable evidence in caseswhere human identification by a scientific method is required. Forensic odontology is the branch of dentistrythat combines knowledge of teeth and oral and maxillofacial region of a dentist with the legal system. Dentalidentification has proven to be a boon in disaster victim identification. Besides teeth, an odontologist canalso help identify unknown domains from other features such as the palatal rugae, lip prints, frontal sinus,etc. Forensic Odontology can also assist in the biological profiling of human remains by sex determination,age assessment, racial profiling, and information about habits or pathologies from dental traits. Dental ageestimation is a crucial part of the age estimation process in the medico-legal system. Research has shownthat dental age estimation by studying mineralization and development of teeth in children and young adultscan be fairly accurate and supplement skeletal age assessment. Biological profiling is required to be donefor reconstructive identification by forensic facial reconstruction, especially in cold cases. Equipped with theexpertise of dental structures, oral and maxillofacial region, overall skull anthropology, forensic odontologycan contribute towards the identification of skeletonized, decomposed, or mutilated remains especially incold cases.

Base-free enantioselective SN2 alkylation of 2-oxindoles via bifunctional phase-transfer catalysis
Authors: Litvajova Mili , Sorrentino Emiliano , Twamley Brendan , Connon Stephen J
Published: September 2021

N-Protected oxindole derivatives of unprecedented malleability bearing ester moieties at C-3 have been shown to participate in enantioselective phase-transfer-catalysed alkylations promoted by ad-hoc designed quaternary ammonium salts derived from quinine bearing hydrogen-bond donating substituents. For the first time in such phase-transfer-catalysed enolate alkylations, the reactions were carried out under base-free conditions. It was found that urea-based catalysts outperformed squaramide derivatives, and that the installation of a chlorine atom adjacent to the catalyst’s quinoline moiety aided in avoiding selectivity-reducing complications related to the production of HBr in these processes. The influence of steric and electronic factors from both the perspective of the nucleophile and electrophile were investigated and levels of enantiocontrol up to 90% ee obtained. The synthetic utility of the methodology was demonstrated via the concise enantioselective synthesis of a potent CRTH2 receptor antagonist.

Reproduction between Health and Sickness : Doctors’ Attitudes to Reproductive Issues in Interwar Czechoslovakia
Authors: Lacinová Najmanová Veronika
Published: September 2021

The study examines how doctors in interwar Czechoslovakia intervened in reproductive issues and related areas of life in an attempt to combat the declining birthrate, a trend that was considered a threat to society. Inspired by Foucault’s concept of medicalization and biopower, through the analysis of medical literature and articles from the press in the interwar period, I will demonstrate how Czechoslovak doctors, not only but especially under the influence of eugenics, foregrounded the categories of health and sickness in order to assert definitions of “correct” forms of reproduction while attempting to stigmatize and discourage forms of reproduction that they considered detrimental to the health of society or the nation. The aim of the study is not only to expand the body of knowledge about the activities and attitudes of Czechoslovak doctors in the interwar period but also to call attention to the still current topic of the political background of reproductive policy.
PUBLIC CONTRACTS IN HOLDING COMPANIES OPERATING IN THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY – A CASE OF THE CZECH REPUBLIC
Authors: Brychta Karel
Published: September 2021

This paper is produced as an exploratory study with the aim of carrying out a taxonomy of construction companies operating in the Czech Republic, taking into account the type and number of concluded public procurement contracts. In processing the multidimensional matrix describing the companies, a cluster analysis was used to identify the dependence between the set of variables. Results of the analysis suggest that the prevailing types of public procurement procedures include negotiated procedure without prior publications, open procedure and simplified below-threshold procedure, while from the point of view of the contracted value, the open procedure is of the highest importance. As for the cluster analysis conducted for the types of public procurement analysis, one can conclude that there is a relation between the number of public contracts concluded and the scope of the types. On the other hand, the extension of the conducted cluster analysis did not provide any conclusive evidence regarding the relationship between the types of public procurement contracts and the types of holding structures. Such a study has not been realised in the Czech Republic yet. Thus, the results of this study provide a background for research in the area of public procurement in the Czech Republic. Some potential research questions have been stated in the discussion part of the paper.
Exploring the 100 au Scale Structure of the Protobinary System NGC 2264 CMM3 with ALMA

Published: September 2021

We have observed the young protostellar system NGC 2264 CMM3 in the 1.3 mm and 2.0 mm bands at a resolution of about 0.″1 (70 au) with ALMA. The structures of two distinct components, CMM3A and CMM3B, are resolved in the continuum images of both bands. CMM3A has an elliptical structure extending along the direction almost perpendicular to the known outflow, while CMM3B reveals a round shape. We have fitted two 2D Gaussian components to the elliptical structure of CMM3A and CMM3B and have separated the disk and envelope components for each source. The spectral index α between 2.0 and 0.8 mm is derived to be 2.4–2.7 and 2.4–2.6 for CMM3A and CMM3B, respectively, indicating optically thick dust emission and/or grain growth. A velocity gradient in the disk/envelope direction is detected for CMM3A in the CH3CN, CH3OH, and 13CH3OH lines detected in the 1.3 mm band, which can be interpreted as the rotation of the disk/envelope system. From this result, the protostellar mass of CMM3A is roughly evaluated to be 0.1–0.5 M
⊙ by assuming Keplerian rotation. The mass accretion rate is thus estimated to be 5 × 10−5 − 4 × 10−3
M
⊙ yr−1, which is higher than the typical mass accretion rate of low-mass protostars. The OCS emission line shows a velocity gradient in both outflow direction and disk/envelope direction. A hint of outflow rotation is found, and the specific angular momentum of the outflow is estimated to be comparable to that of the disk. These results provide us with novel information on the initial stage of a binary/multiple system.

Authors: Ibysheva Ainash , Muldaeva Gulmira , Arystan Leila I. , Kuzgibekova Almagul B. , Abeuova Bibigul A. , Haydargalieva Leila S.
Published: September 2021

BACKGROUND: These potentially inappropriate prescribing is associated with the development of undesired medical reactions in elderly patients, and increase the frequency of hospitalizations, the number of aggravations and the cost of treatment. All of these adverse events are preventable. For detection of PIP and to prevent the adverse drug reactions (ADRs) in elderly patients, it is necessary to screen for potentially inappropriate prescribing.

AIM: The aim of the study is to study the prevalence of PIP and the factors associated with these prescriptions at the level primary link in Kazakhstan.

METHODS: A prospective descriptive study was carried out at the primary care level, in five clinics in Kazakhstan. The study involved 205 patients over 65 years old who received regular outpatient treatment for chronic diseases. Patients’ current diagnoses and prescription medicines were reviewed and the STOPP and START tools applied.

RESULT: The prevalence of PIP in terms of STOPP criteria was 54% (114 patients). In general, we have identified 181 cases of PIP. The most commonly prescribed PIP were moxonidine (20%), glimeperide (16.5%), and PPI (20%). The prevalence of prescribing omissions in terms of START criteria was 22% (48 patients). Overall 66 cases of prescribing omissions were identified. The most commonly prescribed omissions were statins (6%) and ACE inhibitors (4%). Comparative analysis revealed a statistically significant effect of polymorbidity on the prevalence of PIP (p < 0.001) and number of prescribed medicines on the prevalence of PIP (p < 0.05). We have found a statistically significant effect of age on the presence of prescribing omissions of patients. (p < 0.001)

CONCLUSION: Our results showed a high prevalence of potentially inappropriate prescribing at the primary care level in Kazakhstan. Screening tools should be incorporated into the everyday practice of primary care doctors.
Knowledge, Awareness, and Attitudes toward Umbilical Cord Blood Biobanking
Authors: Kregar Velikonja Nevenka , Erjavec Karmen , Knežević Miomir
Published: September 2021

BACKGROUND: Umbilical Cord Blood (UCB) stem cells are a non-invasive, effective alternative source of hematopoietic stem cells for the treatment of a variety of diseases.

AIM: The aim of the study was to research knowledge, awareness, and attitudes of the general public and health professionals regarding the UCB storage.

MATERIALS AND METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted with an online survey (n = 408) using the snowball method.

RESULTS: A majority of respondents declared that they were not aware of UCB banking; however, people with an academic background in healthcare have a greater awareness of UCB banking. A subjective assessment found that their knowledge of UCB banking is better than that of non-professionals, however, they exhibited better knowledge and understanding of UCB use and banking in only a few aspects. People with an academic background in healthcare have a more polarized attitude toward cord blood banking and a higher percentage are unwilling to pay for UCB banking services. However, their preferences regarding public/private UCB banking do not differ significantly from those of non-professionals.

CONCLUSION: Here, we show that there is not much difference between the laic and professional categories in terms of knowledge about the specific purpose and characteristics of UCB storage.

Published: September 2021

Molecular phylogenetic studies of Hosta pulchella (Asparagaceae) and its relatives, which are native to Japan, have been conducted and resulted in a highly resolved phylogeny. Specifically, the relationship of H. pulchella to H. alata Hatusima, nom. nud. is investigated. These data include genome-wide SNPs obtained through conducting multiplexed ISSR genotyping by sequencing (MIG-seq). Based on these phylogenetic results, morphological observations, distribution, and differences in flowering periods of H. alata collections sympatric with H. pulchella, we find the two species closely related, but distinct. As such, we formally describe Hosta alatasp. nov. from the Oita Prefecture of Kyushu island, southwestern Japan.
Using random walks to establish wavelike behavior in a linear FPUT system with random coefficients
Authors: McGinnis Joshua A. , Wright J. Douglas
Published: September 2021

We consider a linear Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou lattice with random spatially varying material coefficients. Using the methods of stochastic homogenization we show that solutions with long wave initial data converge in an appropriate sense to solutions of a wave equation. The convergence is strong and both almost sure and in expectation, but the rate is quite slow. The technique combines energy estimates with powerful classical results about random walks, specifically the law of the iterated logarithm.
WA-GPSR: Weight-Aware GPSR-Based Routing Protocol for VANET

The extremely fast topology has created new requirements for the geographic routing protocol, which has been the most efficient solution for Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs). The frequent disconnection of links makes the choice of the next routing node extremely difficult. Hence, an efficient routing algorithm needs to deliver the appropriate path to transfer the data packets with the most relevant quality of service (QoS). In this work, the weight-aware greedy perimeter stateless (WA-GPSR) routing protocol is presented. The enhanced GPSR protocol computes the reliable communication area and selects the next forwarding vehicle based on several routing criteria. The proposal has been evaluated and compared to Maxduration-Minangle GPSR (MM-GPSR) and traditional GPSR using strict metric analysis. Our experimental results using NS-2 and VanetMobiSim, have demonstrated that WA-GPSR has the ability to enhance network performance.
The Positive Face of Human Capital, Psychological Capital, and Well-Being
Authors: Okun Olcay
Published: September 2021

This chapter analyzes the relation between Positive Psychology, Psychological Capital, and Well-Being. Positive psychology pursues information that flourishes on life. Positive psychology improves the quality of life and investigates the paths towards positive individual characteristics and developing communities through actions that increase well-being and prevents discomfort in situations where life is vicious and meaningless. Psychological capital is associated with many positive results for employees and the organization and promises to increase productivity in today's workplace. In this chapter, the transformation of positive psychology into the concept of psychological capital is explained in the field of organizational behavior, and the state of well-being and psychological capital are examined from a theoretical perspective. Besides, it is explained how psychological capital improves employee wellbeing. Psychological capital and well-being are very effective concepts on employee workplace performance, and there are strong relationships between them.
Bounds in Tree-Based Approaches to Generate Project Portfolios in the Presence of Interactions
Authors: vetschera Rudolf , Araùjo de Almeida Jonatas
Published: September 2021

Portfolio decision models have become an important branch of decision analysis. Portfolio problems are inherently complex, because of the combinatorial explosion in the number of portfolios that can be constructed even from a small number of items. To efficiently construct a set of portfolios that provide good performance in multiple criteria, methods that guide the search process are needed. Such methods require the calculation of bounds to estimate the performance of portfolios that can be obtained from a given partial portfolio. The calculation of such bounds is particularly difficult if interactions between items in the portfolio are possible. In the paper, the authors introduce a method to represent such interactions and develop various bounds that can be used in the presence of interactions. These methods are then tested in a computational study, where they show that the bounds they propose frequently provide a good approximation of actual outcomes, and also analyze specific properties of the problem that influence the approximation quality of the proposed bounds.
Absence of mutations at SERPINI1 gene in a cohort of patients with Cerebral Cavernous Malformations

Published: September 2021

Cerebral Cavernous Malformations (CCM) are vascular lesions affecting brain microvessels. While molecular bases of the sporadic condition are not yet well elucidated, familial forms arise following mutations at three different loci KRIT1, CCM2 and PDCD10. However, no germline mutations are detected in a small percentage of families with hereditary history of CCM. In order to detect other possible candidate genes, we performed molecular analysis of SERPINI1 gene in a cohort of patients carrying no mutations in the three CCM loci, aiming to detect mutations likely associated to lesion development. Therefore, we performed molecular analysis of the SERPINI1 gene in a cohort of 18 unrelated patients affected by both familial and sporadic CCM showing no germline causative mutations. Mutational analysis resulted negative and only few single nucleotide polymorphisms were detected. However, the rs11284733 SNP was detected in a high percentage of patients affected by familial form of the disease. This SNP occurs within a noncoding exon retained in an alternative spliced SERPINI1 transcript, suggesting its possible role in gene expression regulation.

This collection of data and description of lab protocols supplements publication (Kabanov, 2021). The diamond-drill cores from historical exploration wells of Northwest Territories, Canada, were sampled over the period from 2013 to 2020 for the study of subaerial
exposure profiles (paleosols and paleokarsts) and other facies in the shallow-marine (peritidal) carbonates of the Early-Middle Devonian Landry and Headless formations. Samples were collected with hand tools under hand lens and, where required, binocular microscope. Stable carbon and oxygen
measurements (delta-13C and delta-18O vs. VPDB) were performed at the Jan Veizer Stable Isotope Lab of the University of Ottawa. Mineralogy of 18 samples were completed by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses for bulk-rock and clay-size fractions at the Mineralogy Lab of GSC-Ottawa. Our
analytical results provide the largest set of mineralogy and stable isotope data available from the Landry and Headless formations and can be reused in future projects exploring the diagenetic pathways of isotopic reset in these strata and the follow-up studies of subaerial exposure profiles. We
also describe the curation procedure and give sample access information for the core and sample repository at GSC Calgary.
