Opportunities and illusions of using large samples in statistical inference
Authors: Szreder Mirosław
Published: September 2022

The theory of statistical inference clearly describes the benefits of large samples. The larger the sample size, the fewer standard errors of the estimated population parameters (the precision of the estimation improves) and the values of the power of statistical tests in hypothesis testing increase. Today’s easy access not only to large samples (e.g. web panels) but also to more advanced and user-friendly statistical software may obscure the potential threats faced by statistical inference based on large samples. Some researchers seem to be under the illusion that large samples can reduce both random errors, typical for any sampling technique, as well as non-random errors. Additionally, the role of a large sample size is an important aspect of the much discussed in the recent years issue of statistical significance (p-value) and the problems related to its determination and interpretation. The aim of the paper is to present and discuss the consequences of focusing solely on the advantages of large samples and ignoring any threats and challenges they pose to statistical inference. The study shows that a large-size sample collected using one of the non-random sampling techniques cannot be an alternative to random sampling. This particularly applies to online panels of volunteers willing to participate in a survey. The paper also shows that the sampling error may contain a non-random component which should not be regarded as a function of the sample size. As for the contemporary challenges related to testing hypotheses, the study discusses and exemplifies the scientific and ethical aspects of searching for statistical significance using large samples or multiple sampling.

Published: September 2022

Himachal Pradesh State encompasses total livestock population of 4.41 million in the year 2017, of which 55 % encompasses of bovine and 40.8 % encompasses of ovine population to total livestock population. District-wise trend analysis was performed from the year 2003 to 2017. The population of indigenous cattle has declined by 20.50 %, the population of crossbred cattle is increased by 20.73 % but the buffalo population was remained almost constant and the population of ovine was declined by 6.41 %. Â The milk production in year 2018 accounted for 1460.33 metric tone and milk productivity 1.91, 4.72 and 3.38 kg per day from Indigenous, crossbred and buffalo respectively. The milk production increased by 2.28 %, 7.30 % and 3.85 % from indigenous cattle, crossbred cattle and buffalo respectively. The increased milk production in the state was mainly due to shift from indigenous cattle to crossbred dairy animals across state and increase in Lactating efficiency (LE). The predicted milk production in the state will be 1941 MT by 2030. The lactating efficiency of crossbreed occupied highest among the livestock in the Himachal with 51 per cent. Moreover the shift inÂ  growth rate of milk production would be in favor of crossbred rather than indigenous cattleÂ  and buffalo due to observed CAGR and LE trends in past. Therefore the favorable conditions including required infrastructure facilities such as subsidies, Higher AI centers, veterinary clinics and market access should be created for promoting crossbred cattleâ€™s in Himachal Pradesh for the benefit and advancement of the dairy sector.

Published: September 2022

Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum) is a promising dual purpose (fodder and grain) crop. The present investigationwas carried to evaluate the effect of liquid microbial inoculants on the quality traits of forage pearl millet. Experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design with a total of 12 treatment combinations of liquid microbial inoculants (Azotobacter sp., Sphingobacterium sp., Stenotrophomonas maltophilia and Burkholderia seminalis) with 100% Recommended Dose of Fertiliser (RDF) and replicated thrice. The application of the liquid microbial inoculants showed improvement in the quality traits over the uninoculated control at both the locations. The treatment T9 (RDF + B. seminalis + S. maltophilia) showed significant increase in the total sugars, ash content, CP (crude protein) and IVDMD (in vitro dry matter digestibility), while significant decrease in the ADF (acid detergent fibre) and NDF (neutral detergent fibre). Further, very strong positive and significant correlation was observed between ADF, NDF and the various antinutrients while they were recorded to be negatively correlated with rest of the quality parameters. Therefore, it can be concluded that liquid microbial inoculants could play a predominant role in improving the forage quality of forage pearl millet

Published: September 2022

Â Â The BayesianÂ model was applied for analyzing the first lactation in Karan Fries cattle. First lactation data of production (305-day or less milk yield and daily milk yield) were collected from the history-cum pedigree sheet and daily milk yield registers of the division of Dairy Cattle Breeding (DCB), National Dairy Research Institute (NDRI), Karnal. In the Bayesian paradigm, MCMC methods are applied to solve complex mathematical problems to estimate a large number of unknown parameters. Assuming linear mixed model and using the different prior set up, diagnostic of MCMC (Markov Chain Monte Carlo) was carried out graphically as well as by Heidelberg stationarity test. Variance estimates of the random effects (VA) and residual variance estimation (VR) and Variance estimate location effects i.e. fixed effects were calculated along with effective sample size. Finally, heritability (h2) estimates for First lactation 305 days or less milk yieldÂ  (FL305DMY) was estimated along with its credible interval.

Mycoplasma agalactiae causes contagious agalactia, a serious, economically important and OIE listed diseasesyndrome, in sheep and goats. There are no reports of this disease from Maharashtra state of India. The aim ofthe present investigation was to record epidemiological information and to detect M. agalactiae in clinical samplesfrom natural outbreaks of contagious agalactia. Clinically, anorexia, reluctance to follow the herd, lethargy and feverwere the initial clinical signs noted. Later, mastitis, arthritis and keratoconjunctivitis were noted as important clinicalsigns in both sheep and goats. However, all signs were not present in every case. DNA was extracted from mastiticmilk and articular exudate collected from suspected cases and PCR was performed using primers specific for 16S rRNA gene of Mycoplasma spp. The agarose gel electrophoresis of PCR product revealed the presence of bands of expected size (278 bp) indicating positive amplification. The nucleotide sequence analysis of PCR amplicons showed 100% identity with 16S rRNA gene of Mycoplasma agalactiae isolates JF4428 (Accession No. LT578418.1). The outbreaks of contagious agalactia were confirmed for the first time in Maharashtra state of India and carries epidemiological significance.

Published: September 2022

The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of rice bran crude lecithin (RBCL) on nutrient digestion and balance, performance, methanogenesis and blood profile in crossbred calves. Crossbred calves (18) were randomly divided into three groups; RBCL-0, RBCL-8 and RBCL-12 and fed wheat straw based diet with concentrate mixture containing 0, 8 and 12% RBCL respectively. The dry matter, organic matter and crude protein intake were comparable but tended to decrease with the RBCL levels. The digestibility of dry matter, organic matter, total carbohydrate and gross energy decreased while crude protein and ether extract digestibility increased with RBCL levels. Fibre fractions (NDF and ADF) digestibility was significantly lower in RBCL supplemented groupsin comparison to control group. The body weight gain and average daily gain decreased with increasing level of RBCL. The per cent of nitrogen and calcium retention decreased, while phosphorus retention was significantly lower with inclusion levels of RBCL. Methane production (L/d, L/kgW0.75) was significantly lower in RBCL-12 followed by RBCL-8 as compared to RBCL-0 group. The cholesterol and blood urea concentration was significantly higher in RBCL-12 group as compared to control group. It can be concluded that RBCL is helpful in methane mitigation for cleaner production and can be a cheap source of energy in place of corn for ruminants but at present levels (8 and 12%) the average daily gain depression was seen. Further studies in large number of livestock are warranted toexplore the potential of RBCL in the ruminant ration.

Authors: Souza Roberta Pinheiro de , Barros Paula Luísa Lima Melo de
Published: September 2022

A hipoglicemia neonatal é um problema de saúde pública de grande relevância por se tratar de um distúrbio com alto potencial de gravidade, cursando com sequelas neurológicas. São afetados 8% a 10% dos neonatos gigante para idade gestacional (GIG) e 5% dos neonatos pequenos para a idade gestacional (PIG). O presente estudo avaliou a importância da atuação do enfermeiro frente ao neonato com hipoglicemia, uma vez que essa categoria profissional se demostra com elemento essencial para uma terapêutica da hipoglicemia neonatal. Trata-se de uma revisão de literatura, na qual se realizou uma pesquisa em artigos nas bases de dados Scientific Electronic Library Online (Scielo), Literatura da América Latina e Caribe (LILACS), MEDLINE e Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS, sobre a temática hipoglicemia neonatal e assistência de enfermagem, entre os anos de 2015 a 2020. Os resultados identificam que fatores como: mau funcionamento do sistema endócrino, idade gestacional, neonatos grandes para idade gestacional (GIG) com peso acima do percentil 90, ou pequeno para idade gestacional (PIG) com peso abaixo do percentil 10, filhos de mães diabéticas e uso de fórmulas substituindo o aleitamento materno contribuíram diretamente para quadros de hipoglicemia neonatal. Como tentativa de evitar a hipoglicemia, as mães são orientadas a ofertar aleitamento exclusivo em períodos curtos 3 em 3 horas e promover o aquecimento ao neonato através do contato pele e pele. Conclui-se que o profissional enfermeiro possui um trabalho extremo e complexo, baseado nos seus conhecimentos científicos e práticos, que lhes permite proporcionar cuidados imediatos tanto coletivamente quanto individualmente. É importante que a enfermagem saiba reconhecer os parâmetros normais e alterados para iniciar o tratamento precoce e evitar disfunção neurológica agindo juntamente com uma equipe multidisciplinar nas interversões cruciais a vida.

O tratamento endodôntico como fator de risco para endocardite infecciosa
Authors: Pereira Sarah Regina dos Santos , Hasna Amjad Abu
Published: September 2022

O presente trabalho foi realizado com finalidade de abordar o conhecimento sobre a relação entre o tratamento endodôntico como fator de risco para a endocardite infecciosa. A endocardite é um processo infeccioso em que bactérias através da corrente sanguínea, se hospedam no endocárdio ou em válvulas do músculo cardíaco. Grande parte das endocardites tem início na cavidade oral e o tratamento endodôntico está entre as intervenções odontológicas que são de risco para que isso aconteça. O tratamento endodôntico, por sua vez, compreende a terapêutica das patologias da polpa e de suas respostas no periápice e por consequência no organismo, e é apontado como um dos principais causadores da disseminação de bactérias na corrente sanguínea dentre as condutas odontológicas, ficando atrás apenas dos procedimentos periodontais e de extrações múltiplas. As endotoxinas bacterianas presentes nos canais infectados têm o potencial de ser um fator de risco para o comprometimento cardíaco. No entanto, estes podem ser minimizados quando medidas terapêuticas adequadas são aplicadas, como manipulação cuidadosa de canais infectados e antibioticoterapia profilática para pacientes de alto risco. O cirurgião-dentista deve estar sempre ciente de seu papel na saúde sistêmica do paciente, suas implicações no tratamento e na saúde.

Published: September 2022

A doença e a necessidade de hospitalização e de intervenção cirúrgica rompe o equilíbrio físico e psicológico do paciente e ocasiona alterações no estado emocional. Dessa maneira é possível reconhecer os agentes causadores dessas alterações e realizar cuidados específicos durante o período pré cirúrgico, além de contribuir para uma melhor evolução no pós-operatório. O presente caso trata-se de um paciente do sexo masculino, de 47 anos, que foi submetido a uma cirurgia à Hartmann devido um FAB, e que teve como consequência sua qualidade de vida diminuída nos 4 meses após a cirurgia devido a colostomia. Com isso, no momento pré cirúrgico da reconstrução de trânsito intestinal o paciente teve acompanhamento psicológico e mudanças na estrutura hospitalar, com o objetivo de diminuir sua ansiedade e melhorar o desfecho final. Além disso, foi possível correlacionar o caso relato com a literatura e perceber que pacientes com apanhamento do psicólogo e que possuem atendimento personalizado no pré-operatório possuem menos complicações, menor tempo de internamento e uma melhor evolução.

Objectives: We assessed the attitudes of emergency department (ED) consultants toward family presence during resuscitation (FPDR), to elucidate and provide proof of the benefits of allowing FPDR in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study using a questionnaire electronically sent to all ED consultants from five major government hospitals in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The survey examined the consultants' beliefs and perception of FPDR, legalities, policies and the effects and outcomes of FPDR on the patient, family, and themselves. Results: The survey received 172 responses, 55.0% were 36â€“45 years old and 144 (83.7%) were men. Most respondents (91.36%) had experienced FPDR. Less than half (40.1%) believed that FPDR is beneficial to the patient, and 58.7% believed that FPDR could cause difficulties for the resuscitation team. A written policy for FPDR was preferred by 42% of respondents. Significantly more respondents 36-45 years old recommend allowing FPDR compared to other age groups, and significantly more male consultants in this age group believe there is a positive outcome of FPDR. Conclusion: The attitude and perception of emergency consultants towards the practice of FPDR was less positive than expected. Many consultants did not favor the advantages of FPDR, and were worried about negative outcomes, potential medico-legal repercussions, and the unpleasant experience for the family members, especially female consultants. However, a larger proportion of consultants nevertheless recommend FPDR. The ability of ED doctors to manage FPDR and their understanding of the benefits of FPDR needs to be strengthened.

Published: September 2022

The Virescent Yellow leaf cotton line Stoneville Accession 30 (SA30, PI 528447) was crossed with four modern parental lines (DP5690, DES119, SG747 and MD51ne) to develop four sets of near isogenic lines (NILs) segregating for green and yellow leaves. Comparisons of these lines were made in the field in a two-year replicated study between the obsolete SA30 line and four modern NIL sets. Yield measurements, including hand (bolls/plant) and machine harvested (kg/plot) samples, of the four modern NIL sets compared to SA30 resulted in a twofold difference except for DP5690 yellow leaf (192%) and MD51ne yellow (167%) in the kg/plot ratios. Other yield measurements (seed cotton weight and 100 boll seed weight) reflected the "Mebane" cotton background of the SA30 line with larger bolls, whereas lint yields reflected the higher lint percentages of the modern NILs. Growth parameters including plant height and number of nodes were measured at predetermined intervals and height-to-node ratios were determined with the green leaf lines growing faster than the yellow leaf lines. The yellow leaf NILs and the SA30 line grew at the same rate. Cotton fiber quality was measured with both AFIS and HVI and both similarities and differences are reported in the paper. Even though the NILs used in this study were created to evaluate various yield measurements along with plant height and height-to-node ratios, this study also demonstrated that these lines can be used to search for the genes involved in increased partitioning to the reproductive structures.

Determination of an efficient number of testing locations in multiple-location tests for cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) fiber quality can allow removal of unnecessary locations while maintaining the statistical power in detection of genotype (g) by environment (e) interactions. Fiber quality data from Regional High-Quality (RHQ) tests from 2011 to 2016 were used to determine an efficient number of locations in the tests for fiber quality and relationships among locations for their representativeness and ability to discriminate among genotypes. Covariance parameters of g, location (l), and gl in the original RHQ tests were estimated in a random model. The simulating data with varying number of locations omitted from the original tests were created by performing 100 unique simulations. When locations were reduced to five, the standard deviations (std) of gl increased from 18 to 37% compared to the original tests. Further reduction of locations to four or less increased std of gl from 30 to 217% compared to the original tests. Therefore, five locations were determined to be an efficient number of locations in tests for fiber quality. The discriminating ability and representativeness of the eight locations for fiber properties were calculated as their distances to an "ideal environment", which was designed as a center in GGE biplot graphs for representativeness and discriminating ability. The relationships among locations were different across years. However, by averaging the distances across testing years, the locations of Stoneville, MS; Keiser, AR; Lubbock, TX; and College Station, TX were identified as the most representative testing sites for fiber properties.

Published: September 2022

Tillage practices, cover crops, and planting dates can influence soil moisture and temperature conditions at planting and cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) stand establishment and yield. A study was conducted in North Carolina at two locations from 2014 through 2016. Treatments included six tillage systems of fall and spring conventional raised beds and flat strip tillage planted in early and late May, with and without a wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cover crop. Tillage treatments include conventional spring raised beds, fall strip till, stale seedbed, at-plant strip till, pre-plant strip till, and stale seedbed with at-plant strip till. Except for fall strip tillage, no tillage systems reduced plant populations compared to conventionally tilled cotton in any environment. Crop growth rates were similar in conventional and spring strip-till systems and were lower in four planting date environments with stale seedbeds. In 2016, in-row soil resistance was measured from 0- to 30-cm depth using a conical penetrometer both at planting and post-harvest. Plots without any spring tillage had the greatest soil resistance for all measurements and depths. All plots with spring tillage had similar soil resistance to at least the 15-cm depth from which point the conventional spring beds had the least soil resistance through the 30-cm profile. Late planted cotton in 2014 showed inconsistent yield differences among tillage systems between locations. When pooled over location and year for 2015 and 2016, however, tillage system did not influence cotton yield. These data indicate that cotton yields in reduced-till systems are comparable to cotton grown in conventional systems in North Carolina soils.

Published: September 2022

Field experiments were conducted in 2017 and 2018 in west Tennessee to determine if Canopeo, an image analysis tool available as a smartphone app, could be used to supplement current methods to estimate cotton, Gossypium hirsutum L., seedling health in small-plot research tests. A total of six tests, providing a range of cotton seedling health, were used in this analysis. Cotton seedlings in replicated small-plot tests were visually rated for vigor and thrips (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) injury. A photograph of the center two rows of each plot was taken and analyzed to determine green canopy cover using Canopeo. Additionally, above ground biomass samples were collected in three of the tests. Strong correlations were observed between green canopy cover and biomass, green canopy cover and vigor, and thrips injury ratings and biomass. These data suggest that green canopy cover assessment using Canopeo is a useful and non-destructive way to objectively assess treatment effects on plant health in small-plot cotton research trials.

Authors: Tran Nam Hung
Published: September 2022

The fires in tunnels can cause high temperature and can seriously affect tunnel structure. Study on the work of tunnel lining under impact of high temperature is a challenge for predicting the safety as well as proposing measures to repair the structures after the fires. This study aims at analysis of stress-strain state in the tunnel lining that subjected to the large changes of temperature due to the fires. The analysis is relied on numerical simulations by finite element method with the assumptions of the plane strain problem for a deep tunnel. The thermo-hydro-mechanical coupling behavior for the lining and the surrounding medium is used in the simulation. The results obtained show that the influence of the high temperature on the stress-strain state of the lining is significant and the region of the lining near tunnel wall can be damaged.
STUDY ON RESIDUAL DEFORMATION OF GRADED AGGREGATE BASE IN FLEXIBLE PAVEMENT BY USING ABAQUS SOFTWARE
Authors: Pham Duc Phong
Published: September 2022

This article presents deformation characteristics and the residual deformation behavior of the graded aggregate base in the flexible pavement under changes of load and elastic modulus of the material layers. The finite element model is presented by using software Abaqus in order to simulate and analyze the influence of several parameters on the accumulating residual deformation of the aggregate layers. The result of the analysis data shows that, when reducing the dynamic elastic modulus of the surface layers or the elastic modulus of the foundation layers, the residual deformation in the graded aggregate base increases a certain amount about (30÷40)%, but when increasing the pressure of wheel acting on the road surface, the residual deformation in the graded aggregate base will increase rapidly about (80÷180)%. Therefore, this is a criterion that should be seriously considered and strictly controlled when designing pavements. The results can be used as the reference database for the calculation, design, and exploitation of this pavement
