Published: June 2021

Hot and cold water is always needed for human being and we use different systems to get hot and cold water. The devices which are available in market for heating and cooling purpose have more costly and heavy like refrigerator, electric heater and solar water heater. So, we decide to make project on “fabrication of instant water cooler using thermoelectric module to get cold water and hot water at same time.” Peltier effect is used to get cold as well as hot water at same time with cheapest cost and applicable to use in residential area also. Our aim is toward developing a system which will provide cooling and heating effect at same time without moving mechanical parts. Thermoelectric cooling and heating system not require working fluids. This device can be used to cool water without refrigerants. And simultaneously heating can be achieved from the hot side of thermoelectric module to heat the water, this because of heat absorption and rejection using Peltier element. This compact design is very useful in elimination of CFC and it would replace refrigeration system.

Published: June 2021

Face is the representation of one’s identity. Hence, we have proposed an automated student attendance system based on face recognition. Face recognition system is very useful in life applications especially for attendance system. In our proposed approach, firstly, video framing is performed by activating the camera through a user-friendly interface. In the pre-processing stage, scaling of the size of images is performed, if necessary, in order to prevent loss of information. In face recognition stage, enhanced local binary pattern (LBP) and principal component analysis (PCA) is applied correspondingly in order to extract the features from facial images. Another way of marking the attendance is fingerprint recognition. To mark the attendance students simply have to give the fingerprint impression in fingerprint scanner module. Finally, the attendance of the recognized student will be marked and saved in the excel file. The student who is not registered will also be able to register on the spot and notification will be given if students sign in more than once. Whenever seminar is completed then a link is sent on email. It includes the information in terms of feedback. When student fills the feedback form then analysis of overall session is done.

Authors: Khan Amena , Sarma Digvijoy , Gowda Chiranth , Rodrigues Gabriel
Published: June 2021

Objectives: Modified Early Warning Score (MEWS) is a reliable, safe, instant, and inexpensive score for prognosticating patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) due to its ability to reflect ongoing changes of the systemic inflammatory response syndrome associated with AP. Our study sought to determine an optimal MEWS value in predicting severity in AP and determine its accuracy in doing so. Methods: Patients diagnosed with AP and admitted to a single institution were analyzed to determine the value of MEWS in identifying severe AP (SAP). The highest MEWS (hMEWS) score for the day and the mean of all the scores of a given day (mMEWS) were determined for each day. Sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value (NPV), and positive predictive values (PPV) were calculated for the optimal MEWS values obtained. Results: Two hundred patients were included in the study. The data suggested that an hMEWS value > 2 on day one is most accurate in predicting SAP, with a specificity of 90.8% and PPV of 83.3%. An mMEWS of > 1.2 on day two was the most accurate in predicting SAP, with a sensitivity of 81.2%, specificity of 76.6%, PPV of 69.8%, and NPV of 85.9%. These were found to be more accurate than previous studies. Conclusions: MEWS provides a novel, easy, instant, repeatable, and reliable prognostic score that is comparable, if not superior, to existing scoring systems. However, its true value may lie in its use in resource-limited settings such as primary health care centers.
An overview of richness and distribution of mosses in Brazil
Authors: Amorim Eduardo T. , Menini Neto Luiz , Luizi-Ponzo Andrea P.
Published: June 2021

Background and aims – Mosses comprise avascular terrestrial plants whose relationship with other plant lineages is not yet fully understood. These plants have a worldwide distribution, but gaps in their distribution have not yet been clarified for Brazil. Based on a large database, compiled from different sources, we present an overview of the moss distribution in Brazil in order to assess the species richness in different areas, as well as the factors that interfere with this distribution.Material and methods – The study area corresponds to the whole Brazilian territory. We collected data on moss occurrences using different online databases and bibliographies. The data were refined, keeping only the records with taxonomic identification of the species, using valid names and correct geographical coordinates We subsequently plotted the records on a map with a 1° × 1° grid pattern. To ascertain the representativeness of the grid, an analysis of estimated richness was carried out.Key results – A total of 969 species of moss were surveyed, from 26 690 records obtained. The number of species per cell ranged from 1 to 242, and 394 cells were occupied for a total of approximately 1 300 cells. Moss richness in Brazil is subjected to varied sampling effort. The Atlantic Forest showed the greatest richness, both as a result of favourable environmental conditions as well as due to a greater sampling intensity. With the exception of a few localities, the Amazon domain had a low sampling and, consequently, a low richness.Conclusions – The results show that the higher richness is observed in the southern and central parts of Brazil, and this is because of the occurrence of areas that have some type of protection (conservation units), environmental conditions related to high humidity, high elevations, and greater sampling effort.
Analysis of the type material of Gomphosphenia tackei (Bacillariophyceae) and comparison to epizoic diatom populations on freshwater snails
Authors: Rybak Mateusz , Peszek Łukasz , Poradowska Anita
Published: June 2021

Background and aims – Hustedt (1942) originally described Gomphosphenia tackei from Germany under the name Gomphonema tackei. Because of the small cell size and the lack of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images from the type material, it is often confused with other species from this genus, especially with G. stoermeri. The aim of this paper was to present detailed morphological characteristics of G. tackei based on the analysis of the type material and of several epizoic populations from Central Europe. Material and methods – The material in this study was collected from the shells of the freshwater snails Lymnaea stagnalis, Planorbarius corneus, and Planorbis planorbis. Additionally, for an unambiguous species identification, the type material for Gomphosphenia tackei was analyzed using light and scanning electron microscopes.Key results – The presence of Gomphosphenia tackei was confirmed in the studied material. The largest population (up to 19%) was recorded on the shell surfaces of living snails, whereas on empty shells, the diatom did not seem to be present or only in very low numbers. Valves are typically clavate with rounded apices. Valves are frequently observed in girdle view, often joint together in pairs. The valves in the studied populations had a valve length of 7–29 µm, a valve width of 3–4 µm, and a stria density of 25–29 striae in 10 µm. In the type population, valve length ranged from 7.5 to 27 µm with a valve width of 3.0–4.0 µm and a stria density of 23–29 striae per 10 µm. Striae were composed of 2–4 elongated to rounded areolae per stria. At the apices, the striae were composed of one single areola. The cells were attached to the substratum by their footpole.Conclusion – Published illustrations of Gomphosphenia tackei do not always correctly represent this species. Individual cells are attached to the substratum by secreted mucilage, probably via their areolae or girdle band pores located on the footpole.
Population expansion and genetic structure in Cephalocereus nizandensis (Cactaceae), a microendemic cactus of rocky outcrops of the Tehuantepec basin, Mexico
Authors: Juárez-Miranda Aldo Isaac , Cornejo-Romero Amelia , Vargas-Mendoza Carlos Fabián
Published: June 2021

Background and aims – Cephalocereus nizandensis is a microendemic columnar cactus that grows isolated in xerophytic enclaves associated with rocky outcrops in the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, in the south of Mexico. Its demographic history and genetic structure were assessed to determine the main events that shaped its current restricted distribution.Material and methods – Chloroplast intergenic sequences of 40 individuals and inter simple sequence repeats (ISSRs) of 45 individuals from four isolated populations were used to estimate haplotypic and nucleotide diversity, using expected heterozygosity and the Shannon index. AMOVA, population pair-wise FST, and Bayesian clustering analyses were performed to explore the genetic structure. Demographic history was estimated with neutrality tests, mismatch distribution analysis, and Bayesian skyline plots. Phylogenetic relationships and divergence times were determined using a median joining network and a Bayesian molecular clock.Key results – C. nizandensis has a high diversity and moderate genetic differentiation. The lowest elevation locality was found to be the most genetically distinct. The species has undergone a process of population expansion that began 150,000 years ago and has remained without evidence of a population contraction in the transition from the Pleistocene to the Holocene (11,700 years ago).Conclusions – C. nizandensis presents moderate but significant genetic differentiation, which may be due to an early divergence of its populations. Currently observed levels of genetic diversity are the result of historical maintenance of high population sizes and a population expansion approximately in the last 150,000 years, which was sustained independently of the climatic fluctuations of the Early Quaternary, due in part to the stability of the rocky habitat.

Authors: Damthongdee Anissara , Aongyong Kithisak , Chaowasku Tanawat
Published: June 2021

Background and aims – Recent botanical expeditions in Ranong Province, southern Thailand yielded unidentifiable collections of Orophea subgenus Sphaerocarpon (Annonaceae). To elucidate the taxonomic status of these collections, detailed morphological examinations and comparisons with morphologically similar species are made.Material and methods – This study followed standard practices of herbarium taxonomy. Specimens of Orophea spp. in BKF, CMUB, L, and QBG herbaria were studied. Digitised type specimens deposited in BM, E, G, K, and L herbaria were accessed. A stereo microscope was used for morphological observations and measurements. Key results – A new species Orophea sichaikhanii is described and illustrated. The Peninsular Malaysian O. hastata and O. kingiana are the species most similar to the new species. Orophea sichaikhanii is different from O. hastata in several traits: indumentum on ovaries and young twigs; length of pedicels, inner petals, and inner petal claw; and inner petal colour and tip. The new species differs from O. kingiana by having dissimilar colour and tip of inner petals; lower number of stamens and carpels per flower; and glabrous ovaries. Additionally, a key to the species of Orophea in Thailand and notes on certain species are provided.

Identity of the subalpine–subarctic corticioid fungus Megalocystidium leucoxanthum (Russulales, Basidiomycota) and six related species
Authors: Spirin Viacheslav , Volobuev Sergey , Malysheva Vera , Miettinen Otto , Kotiranta Heikki , Larsson Karl-Henrik
Published: June 2021

Background and aims – To date, Megalocystidium leucoxanthum, a corticioid fungus originally described from the Italian Alps, was considered as a widely distributed species inhabiting numerous angiosperm hosts in the northern hemisphere. Its specimens collected in different geographic areas and from various host species revealed a high morphological variability and thus obfuscated differences from the closely related M. luridum. The objective of this study was to re-establish M. leucoxanthum based on newly collected and sequenced specimens and clarify the identity of morphologically deviating collections previously ascribed to this species.Material and methods – In total, 87 specimens of Megalocystidium spp. (including two historical types) were studied by morphological methods. Their phylogenetic relations were investigated based on DNA sequences (nrITS, nrLSU, and tef1) of 29 specimens.Key results – Based on morphological, ecological and DNA data, we showed M. leucoxanthum sensu typi is a rare species restricted to Alnus alnobetula in subalpine and subarctic zones. Consequently, records from other hosts (mostly representatives of Salicaceae) belong to three other species, M. olens, M. perticatum, and M. salicis, described as new to science. The fourth newly introduced species, M. pellitum, occurs on the same host tree as M. leucoxanthum but it can be separated from the latter due to distinctive morphological traits and DNA sequences. Additionally, Aleurodiscus diffissus is combined in Megalocystidium and the identity of M. luridum is clarified.

Eieren gooien met Moses Finley
Authors: Verheijen Joris
Published: June 2021

This article examines the long feud between ancient historians Moses Finley and Joseph Vogt on the subject of ancient slavery. Their enmity has often been attributed to differences in character or in political views. However, it is shown here that Finley’s attack was above all directed against the tradition of classical Bildung (the German ideal of self-cultivation) and against the corresponding philosophy of history that informed Vogt’s work. Because the philosophy of Bildung presupposed a linear and exclusive connection between ancient Greece and modern Germany, Finley argued that it was easily turned into an ideological weapon, most fatally so in Nazi Germany. At a time when the alt-right’s political use of classical antiquity resembles Vogt’s views, Finley’s criticism is not only topical, but it also urges ancient historians to reconsider some of their basic concepts.

PRESERVATION OF FAMILY MEDICINE PLANTS (TOGA) TO IMPROVE COMMUNITY HEALTH IN GURAH VILLAGE IN THE MIDDLE OF PANDEMIC COVID-19
Authors: Muharram Muhammad , Kustiani Edy
Published: June 2021

Limitation of Physical Interaction (Physical contact / physical distancing) during the COVID-19 pandemic has caused changes in the lifestyle or habits of the community, the economic crisis, and made health an expensive item. There is a fact that the level of community income has decreased due to social restrictions to break the chain of pandemic transmission COVID-19. Weak purchasing power and soaring prices for medicines have forced people to seek efforts to overcome this situation by looking back to nature. The use of traditional medicine for health maintenance and disease disorders is one of the things that is most likely to be done. Community service activities began with a survey on community understanding of family medicinal plants. The survey results showed 18.75% of the community knew the toga plant well. Then 43.75% of people have moderate knowledge. Meanwhile, 37.50% of people have a low level of knowledge about toga plants. Then carried out identification of medicinal plant species cultivated by the people of Gurah Village. The identification results showed 21 medicinal plants cultivated by the people of Gurah Village.Keywords: Medicinal Plants, COVID-19, Herbs
Toppling the Past?:
Authors: Ballantyne Tony
Published: June 2021

This article explores some of the recent debates over statues, memorials and cultures of commemoration in New Zealand. These 'statue wars' are particularly focused on explorers, military men, colonial governors, and even Queen Victoria herself, figures who are seen as being deeply implicated in the production of the persistent inequalities and pain that has resulted from colonialism and empire. My analysis particularly focuses on the city of Tūranga/Gisborne, James Cook's first landing place in New Zealand and a location where there has a sequence of heated debates over Cook's legacies and a series of attacks on statues of the navigator. It explores three ways in which the city's landscape of memory has been reshaped: the removal of a contentious 1969 statue, the creative redevelopment of a long-standing historic reserve, and the erection of a statue to a key Ngāti Oneone tupuna (ancestor). This discussion particularly highlights the work and arguments of the Ngāti Oneone historian and artist, Nick Tupara. The final section of the essay turns to the author's own location - Ōtepoti/Dunedin - and offers a reading of debates over statues in that city, underlining the pivotal importance of indigenous perspectives on history and public space.

Authors: Mariz Max , Gibely Reham , AM Abdelmoghny
Published: June 2021

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between specific combining ability, genetic diversity of parents and heterosis over better parent effects. This research, having eighteen F1 crosses derived from crossing between six lines and three testers, was conducted in order to estimate combining ability, to determine the nature of gene action and heterosis for yield and fiber quality traits and to detect the appropriate crosses for cotton breeding program. The experiment was conducted on randomized complete block design with three replications. The analyses of variance showed significant differences among the genotypes, parents (lines and testers) and crosses for all the studied traits. Estimates of both general and specific combining ability effects were significant for most traits, indicating the importance of both additive and non-additive gene effects for these traits. While, specific was higher than general combining ability variances, for all traits, showing non-additive gene action controlling and therefore, heterosis breeding may be rewarding. The heterosis value varied from cross to cross and from trait to trait. This dissimilarity coefficient was ranged from 3.234 between Giza 85 and Giza 80 to 71.002 between Giza 96 and 10229. Association between heterosis over better parent and specific combining ability was positive and significant for all the studied traits except lint yield / plant. No correlations were found between SCA and GD for all the studied traits. Similarly, heterosis effects was negatively significantly correlated with GD only in the case of boll weight, lint yield / plant and uniformity ratio %, while showed positive and significant correlation for fiber strength and micronaire value. Four crosses showed both positive and significant heterosis and specific combining ability for most yield traits. The parents of these crosses belong to different clusters. Crossing diverse parents could produce high heterotic performance in hybri

Published: June 2021

Forest degradation is a critical issue around the globe particularly in developing countries like India which has diverse phytogeography and forest types. It is a complex issue, existing parameters are difficult to apply across different forest types and classes, due to lack of specific guidelines therefore needs to be addressed in broader terms and scale. Therefore, the present paper proposes a new methodology based on Sustainable Forest Management (SFM) criteria and indicators leveraging remote sensing data for assessing the forest degradation. Emphasis is put on the upscale and explicability aspects of the methodology rather than stand level and local dentitions of forest degradation so that the methodology can be broadly applicable to all Tropical Dry Deciduous Forests of India. Hence to provide a scientific framework for assessing forest degradation and helps in the implementation of specific rehabilitation practices in degraded forests

Síndrome de lisis tumoral en adultos : revisión de la literatura.
Authors: Galvis Luisa , González Diego , Jurado Natallie , Sánchez Jesús
Published: June 2021

El síndrome de lisis tumoral (SLT) es una urgencia oncológica causada por la destrucción de células neoplásicas, que genera liberación al torrente sanguíneo de grandes contenidos intracelulares de potasio, fosfato y ácidos nucleicos, ocasionando falla renal, arritmias, convulsiones e, incluso, la muerte. El SLT es más frecuente en pacientes con neoplasias hematológicas, tumores con alto grado de proliferación o muy quimiosensibles, y se manifiesta usualmente 48 horas después del inicio de la terapia antineoplásica, o más infrecuente de manera espontánea. El objetivo del tratamiento consiste en la prevención mediante hidratación agresiva y el uso de agentes hipouricemiantes, y el diagnóstico se debe orientar según los factores de riesgo asociados a la neoplasia y al paciente.

Introducción y objetivos. El tumor tritón maligno (TTM) es un tipo de tumor poco frecuente, de características agresivas, que se asocia con altas tasas de enfermedad metastásica y recurrencia. La caracterización de la neoplasia por medio de inmunohistoquímica es fundamental para valorar el componente neural y la diferenciación rabdomioblástica. No hay suficiente soporte en la literatura con respecto al manejo óptimo dada la rareza de su presentación; se discute el caso de una paciente con un TTM metastásico inicialmente manejado con radioterapia.

Published: June 2021

Introducción y objetivos. El cáncer de pulmón es una enfermedad en permanente crecimiento, su asociación con el tabaco hace de ella una enfermedad potencialmente evitable, presenta un predominio en varones, pero con un incremento en mujeres. Su principal factor pronóstico es poder recibir un tratamiento quirúrgico con intento curativo; sin embargo, la realidad indica que el diagnóstico suele realizarse en fases avanzadas de la enfermedad, cuando solo un pequeño porcentaje de los casos puede ser intervenido. Con los tratamientos no quirúrgicos, basados en quimioterapia y radioterapia, se han observado significativos avances en los últimos años. Objetivo: describir las características anatomopatológicas, biológicas, de tratamiento, frecuencia de la mutación del EGFR, y determinar la relación entre estas y la respuesta clínica.

El tratamiento del paciente oncológico es complejo debido a que la naturaleza de la patología requiere un manejo sistémico. Las distintas terapias que buscan restablecer la salud de los pacientes, o al menos procurarles calidad de vida, deben modificarse constantemente, porque sus efectos adversos a menudo provocan que los pacientes interrumpan su tratamiento o lo abandonen por completo. Tal es el caso de la náusea y el vómito inducidos por radioterapia y quimioterapia, que provocan mayor malestar a los pacientes y que, desde hace más de dos décadas, han tratado de ser controlados con antieméticos cada vez más efectivos. Desde hace tiempo, diversas instituciones oncológicas internacionales han publicado guías para homologar los criterios del manejo de la náusea y vómito inducidos por quimioterapia; sin embargo, hasta el momento, se ha carecido de guías y lineamientos específicos adaptados para Latinoamérica, región donde existen circunstancias particulares referentes a la disposición de fármacos y al acceso a recursos. Ante ese panorama, un grupo de especialistas oncólogos, hematólogos y oncólogos pediátricos de Latinoamérica se reunió con el propósito de consensuar el manejo general y las recomendaciones específicas sobre el uso de los fármacos antieméticos, solos o en combinación, y conformar las guías del manejo de la emesis, de acuerdo con las particularidades del contexto latinoamericano. Los expertos contestaron un cuestionario Delphi que contenía los conceptos fundamentales del tratamiento antiemético. Los calificaron mediante parámetros de acuerdo y desacuerdo. Posteriormente, se reunieron para llegar a un consenso en los que requerían discusión y revisaron los reportes más relevantes de las publicaciones internacionales (incluidas las guías de MASCC, NCCN y ASCO). Finalmente, se redactaron las guías latinoamericanas para el control de la emesis.

Published: June 2021

24 мая 2021 г. в рамках IX Евразийского конгресса кардиологов в онлайн-режиме при содействии компании «Эгис» состоялся симпозиум «Многогранная гиперурикемия». Эксперты обсудили ключевые моменты диагностики и лечения бессимптомной и клинически явной гиперурикемии, а также имеющиеся расхождения в зарубежных и российских клинических рекомендациях относительно уровня мочевой кислоты (МК) в сыворотке крови, по достижении которого необходимо начинать медикаментозную терапию. Не остались без внимания и вопросы патогенеза гиперурикемии, ее связь с сахарным диабетом 2 типа, артериальной гипертонией, хронической болезнью почек и рядом других заболеваний. Докладчики подробно остановились на возможностях нормализации показателя МК с помощью диеты и модификации образа жизни (снижения избыточной массы тела, расширения двигательной активности больного) и особо отметили, что комплаентные к терапии пациенты достигают больших успехов в борьбе с гиперурикемией, что может благоприятно повлиять на снижение риска развития ассоциированных с ней заболеваний, в том числе подагры, нефролитиаза, хронической почечной недостаточности и др.

On May 24, 2021, within the framework of the IX Eurasian Congress of Cardiology, a symposium «Multifaceted Hyperuricemia»was held online with the assistance of the Egis company. The experts discussed the key points in the diagnosis and treatment of asymptomatic and clinically overt hyperuricemia, as well as the existing discrepancies in foreign and Russian clinical guidelines regarding the level of uric acid in the blood serum, upon reaching which it is necessary to start drug therapy. The questions of the pathogenesis of hyperuricemia, its connection with type 2 diabetes mellitus, arterial hypertension, chronic kidney disease and a number of other diseases were not ignored. The speakers dwelt in detail on the possibilities of normalizing the uric acid indicator through diet and lifestyle modifications (reducing excess body weight, expanding the patient's motor activity) and especially noted that patients who are compliant with therapy achieve great success in the fight against hyperuricemia, which can have a beneficial effect on reducing the risk of developing diseases associated with it, including gout, nephrolithiasis, chronic renal failure, etc.
Keywords: congress of cardiologists, hyperuricemia, uric acid, gout, nephrolithiasis, diet, clinical guidelines.
