Botanic gardens and arboretums are being set up around the world to help create special collections of plants for the purpose of introduction, conservation of biodiversity and enrichment of the plant world, as well as scientific and educational activities, which, in addition, help in the fight against climate change. In our project, for the first time, it is proposed to create a specialized nectar-bearing arboretum, called the nectar-bearing landscape area of continuous flowering or a nectar forest, which, in addition to the above functions of ordinary arboretums, will also have economic value in the form of creating a universal food base for efficient beekeeping in our region. The first nectar forest with an area of about 18 hectares will be created in the south of the Nurimanovskiy district of the Republic of Bashkortostan near the village of Kyzyl-Barzhau. It is planned to plant a nectar forest, which will consist of 50% different species and forms of lindens, 20% willow and maple species, and the share of all other melliferous woody plants will be 30%. The total number of taxa of the genus Tilia L. (linden) will be 24; it is also planned to use at least 6 species of maple and 12 species and forms of willow. The total number of tree taxa involved will be at least 100. The total duration of flowering of honey plants in the nectar-bearing landscape area of continuous flowering with the participation of the entire population of planned taxa will be at least 193 days (from April 13 to October 24), which will cover the entire beekeeping season in the selected region. The organization of a nectar forest with high species diversity will increase the amount of honey obtained per unit area by at least 114% more compared to Tilia cordata plantations. Increasing the diversity of the forage base and its availability throughout the season will improve the health and stress resistance of bee colonies and increase the brood. In addition to honey production, the nectar forest will also perform the traditional functions of arboretums: scientific, educational, environmental, aesthetic, and recreational. Since the laying of a new arboretum involves the cultivation of a young forest that absorbs carbon dioxide most efficiently, the nectar forest can be used as one of the sites of the Eurasian carbon polygons, which is planned to be created in the Republic of Bashkortostan.

To detect DNA polymorphism in dogs and their wild relatives, a fairly simple method was used in the form of virtual amplification of certain random areas of their genomes using multiplex RAPD analysis with primers with arbitrary nucleotide sequences, which does not require prior knowledge of the sequences of nitrogenous bases of the detected DNA fragments. At the same time, information about the complete genomes of the studied species predicts the expected results, which makes it possible to reject unsuitable primers before conducting "wet" experiments. The multiplex RAPD analysis conducted in silico with 12 decameric primers, the sequences of which exclude the formation of homo- and heterodimers in PCR, showed both genomic similarities and differences between different canid species. If amplicons common to all the studied dog samples are removed from the final results of such virtual amplification, leaving only significant ones that actually act as individualizing, then it is potentially possible to DNA-cataloging each canine specimen with the probability of a random coincidence of their genomic barcodes on average one event per quadrillion.
Herniorrafia perineal em cão macho idoso não castrado: Relato de caso
Authors: Knackfuss Fabiana
Published: August 2022

The objective of this paper was to report a case of a dog diagnosed with bilateral non-castrated perineal hernia and evaluate the postoperative and surgical treatment. A 10-year-old male YorkShire Terrier was seen at the Unigranrio Veterinary School Hospital, presenting with an increase in volume in the perineal region. The patient was attended with history and anamnesis, besides the performance of ultrasonography and radiography imaging exams. The perineal hernia happens when the muscles of the pelvic diaphragm are weakened and separate, allowing abdominal and/or pelvic content to move into the herniated cavity. The hernia can be unilateral or bilateral. The cause of the weakening of the pelvic diaphragm is poorly understood, but is believed to be associated with male hormonal factors, straining, and congenital or acquired muscle weakness or atrophy. The diagnosis is based on finding a weakened pelvic diaphragm during digital rectal examination, physical examination, and complementary diagnostic tests. Correction of the pathology was performed using the surgical technique of anatomical or traditional herniorrhaphy followed by orchiectomy surgery. The patient returned for evaluation six days after surgery, where an initial healing process of the surgical wound was verified, and the use of emollients and pasty food was maintained.
Suplementação proteica e nitrogenada vs. reprodução de fêmeas bovinas em pastejo: Revisão

Published: August 2022

Nutrition exerts great influence on the reproduction of animals. In this sense, this review has the proposal to present and discuss results of some studies related to the influence of protein and nitrogen nutrition on reproductive aspects in bovine females grazing. With the increase in animal performance (meat and milk production), there is an increase in the demand for nutrients. The increase in nutritional requirements associated with low nutrient intake may affect reproductive functions. Malnutrition during the dry and postpartum onset results in lipid and protein mobilization with consequent increase in the incidence of metabolic diseases, reduction in conception rate and longer period of service. However, overfeeding can increase the excretion rate of steroid hormones (progesterone or estradiol), resulting in the occurrence of sub-estrus and decreased rate of conception. The supply of degradable protein in the rumen, non-degradable protein in the rumen and non-protein nitrogen has, in several situations, resulted in an increase in reproductive indices in dairy and beef cattle.

Published: August 2022

This review is intended to discuss critical points of animal welfare that affect the cattle production systems. It is based on legal veterinary medicine, which includes negligence, malpractice, and recklessness, which can be associated with mistreatment, cruelty, and abuse. It is hypothesized that cattle exploration still does not satisfactorily meet the technical, ethical, and legal concerns, as it presents inconsistencies and contradictions regarding national and international animal legislation, legal veterinary medicine, animal welfare and rights. Animal welfare has been increasingly more important in global setting. As society recognizes pain and suffering as relevant factors, animal welfare will promote outstanding economic value to production systems. The balance between animal welfare and the economic aspects in animal production represents the greatest challenge to ensure ethical and humanitarian products of high-quality and cost-effective standard. In production systems, scenarios affecting animal welfare include disease, trauma, malnutrition, social interactions, housing conditions, type of management, transport conditions, mutilations, and veterinary treatments. Legal veterinary medicine covers wide areas of operation, among which animal welfare forensics is an important demand to identify animal mistreatment, cruelty, and abuse. In practice, the veterinarian may suspect of pathologies not related to routine management contingencies. Cases of mistreatment, cruelty, and abuse may be present in the production system by the use of archaic, outdated techniques, which predisposes the occurrence of diseases, which are sometimes hidden or unnoticed by owners and employees, only to be revealed by the veterinarian during routine clinical exams. In this respect, it becomes important to perform welfare diagnostics. This review compiles the main critical aspects in systemic approach, which can be used by veterinary experts when performing cattle welfare assessments. The clinical medicine when associated with the knowledge of welfare and the entire production system provides all scientific basis for welfare diagnosis and preparation of forensic reports in cases of negligence, malpractice, and recklessness involving animal mistreatment, cruelty, and abuse.

Why should speech-language pathologists read graphic novels? A commentary on humanities as a pathway to improving patient-centred care
Authors: Knudson-Vilaseca Emily
Published: August 2022

Like all who work in medical or allied health professions, speech-language pathologists would benefit from supplementing their learning with humanities education, as it can help to improve diagnostic skills and to develop empathy. Graphic novels on illness and disease, conceived of by those in the medical humanities as “graphic medicine,” have an appeal for their brevity and association with humour, and for their ability to express complex thoughts and feelings through a medium that is both visual and literary. As such, they serve as an ideal resource for deepening one’s understanding of how disorders and diseases are experienced by patients and their caregivers and for helping student clinicians, therapists, and researchers recognize their shared humanity with patients and study participants. In this article, I expand on these ideas and, in order to demonstrate the benefit of closely reading graphic novels from a speech-pathology perspective, I offer my own analysis of Tangles: A Story of Alzheimer’s, My Mother, and Me by Sarah Leavitt (2012).

Authors: Fingerhut Hannah , Gozdas Elveda , Hosseini S.M. Hadi
Published: August 2022

Background: Cognitive reserve (CR) has been postulated to contribute to the variation observed between neuropathology and clinical outcomes in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Objective: We investigated the effect of an education-occupation derived CR proxy on biological properties of white matter tracts in patients with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) and healthy elders (HC). Methods: Educational attainment and occupational complexity ratings (complexity with data, people, and things) from thirty-five patients with aMCI and twenty-eight HC were used to generate composite CR scores. Quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (qMRI) and multi-shell diffusion MRI were used to extract macromolecular tissue volume (MTV) across major white matter tracts. Results: We observed significant differences in the association between CR and white matter tract MTV in aMCI versus HC when age, gender, intracranial volume, and memory ability were held constant. Particularly, in aMCI, higher CR was associated with worse tract pathology (lower MTV) in the left and right dorsal cingulum, callosum forceps major, right inferior fronto-occipital fasciculus, and right superior longitudinal fasciculus (SLF) tracts. Conversely higher CR was associated with higher MTV in the right parahippocampal cingulum and left SLF in HC. Conclusion: Our results support compensatory CR mechanisms in aMCI and neuroprotective mechanisms in HC and suggest differential roles for CR on white matter macromolecular properties in healthy elders versus prodromal AD patients.

Background: Ethnic differences in cognitive decline have been reported. Whether they can be explained by differences in systolic blood pressure (SBP) is uncertain. Objective: Determine whether cumulative mean SBP levels explain differences in cognitive decline between Hispanic and White individuals. Methods: Pooled cohort study of individual participant data from six cohorts (1971–2017). The present study reports results on SBP and cognition among Hispanic and White individuals. Outcomes were changes in global cognition (GC) (primary), executive function (EF) (secondary), and memory standardized as t-scores (mean [SD], 50 [10]); a 1-point difference represents a 0.1 SD difference in cognition. Median follow-up was 7.7 (Q1–Q3, 5.2–20.1) years. Results: We included 24,570 participants free of stroke and dementia: 2,475 Hispanic individuals (median age, cumulative mean SBP at first cognitive assessment, 67 years, 132.5 mmHg; 40.8% men) and 22,095 White individuals (60 years,134 mmHg; 47.3% men). Hispanic individuals had slower declines in GC, EF, and memory than White individuals when all six cohorts were examined. Two cohorts recruited Hispanic individuals by design. In a sensitivity analysis, Hispanic individuals in these cohorts had faster decline in GC, similar decline in EF, and slower decline in memory than White individuals. Higher time-varying cumulative mean SBP was associated with faster declines in GC, EF, and memory in all analyses. After adjusting for time-varying cumulative mean SBP, differences in cognitive slopes between Hispanic and White individuals did not change. Conclusion: We found no evidence that cumulative mean SBP differences explained differences in cognitive decline between Hispanic and White individuals.

Published: August 2022

Background: The relationship between serum uric acid (UA) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) risk still remained ambiguous despite extensive attempts. Objective: Via the two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) design, we aimed to examine the bidirectional causal relationships of serum UA, gout, and the risk of AD. Methods: Genetic variants of UA, gout, and AD were extracted from published genome-wide association summary statistics. The inverse-variance weighted (IVW, the primary method), and several sensitivity methods (MR-Egger, weighted median, and weighted mode) were used to calculate the effect estimates. Egger regression, MR-PRESSO and leave-one-SNP-out analysis were performed to identify potential violations. Results: Genetic proxies for serum UA concentration [odds ratio (ORIVW) = 1.09, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.01–1.19, p = 0.031] were related with an increased risk of AD using 25 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). This causal effect was confirmed by sensitivity analyses including MR-Egger (1.22, 1.06–1.42, p = 0.014), weighted median (1.18, 1.05–1.33, p = 0.006), and weighted mode (1.20, 1.07–1.35, p = 0.005) methods. No evidence of notable directional pleiotropy and heterogeneity were identified (p > 0.05). Three SNPs (rs2078267, rs2231142, and rs11722228) significantly drove the observed causal effects. Supportive causal effect of genetically determined gout on AD risk was demonstrated using two SNPs (ORIVW = 1.05, 95% CI = 1.00–1.11, p = 0.057). No reverse causal effects of AD on serum UA levels and gout risk were found. Conclusion: The findings revealed a causal relationship between elevated serum UA level and AD risk. However, further research is still warranted to investigate whether serum UA could be a reliable biomarker and therapeutic target for AD.

With the rise of social networks, people now express their sentiments more frequently and comfortably through their social media activities on different events, person, and every little thing surrounding them. This generates a lot of unstructured data; billions of users post tweets every day as a daily regime on Twitter itself. This has given rise to many texts classification and analysis tasks, Sentiment Analysis (SA) being one of them. Through SA, it is conferred whether the users have negative or positive orientations in their opinions; the results of this task are significantly useful for decision-makers in various fields. This paper presents various facets of SA, like the process followed in SA, levels, approaches, and sentences considered in SA. Aspects such as growth, techniques, the share of various platforms, and SA pipeline are also covered in this paper. At last, we have highlighted some major challenges in order to define future directions.
Class-specific attribute reducts based on neighborhood rough sets
Authors: Zhang Xianyong , Fan Yunrui , Yao Yuesong , Yang Jilin
Published: August 2022

Attribute reduction based on rough sets is an effective approach of data learning in intelligent systems, and it has two basic types. Traditional classification-based attribute reducts mainly complete the classification task, while recent class-specific reducts directly realize the class-pattern recognition. Neighborhood rough sets have the covering-structure extension and data-diversity applicability, but their attribute reducts concern only the neighborhood classification-based reducts. This paper proposes class-specific attribute reducts based on neighborhood rough sets, so as to promote the optimal identification and robust processing of specific classes. At first, neighborhood class-specific reducts are defined, and their basic properties and heuristic algorithms are acquired by granulation monotonicity. Then, hierarchical relationships between the neighborhood classification-based and class-specific reducts are analyzed, and mutual derivation algorithms are designed. Finally, the theoretical constructions and mutual relationships are effectively verified by both decision table examples and data set experiments. The neighborhood class-specific reducts robustly extend the existing class-specific reducts, and they also provide a hierarchical mechanism for the neighborhood classification-based reducts, thus facilitating wide applications of class-pattern processing.

Authors: Geng Kaifeng , Wu Shaoxing , Liu Li
Published: August 2022

Although re-entrant hybrid flow shop scheduling is widely used in industry, its processing and delivery times are typically determined using precise values that frequently ignore the influence of machine failure, human factors, the surrounding environment, and other uncertain factors, resulting in a significant gap between theoretical research and practical application. For fuzzy re-entrant hybrid flow shop scheduling problem (FRHFSP), an integrated scheduling model is established to minimize the maximum completion time and maximize the average agreement index. According to the characteristics of the problem, a hybrid NSGA-II (HNSGA-II) algorithm is designed. Firstly, a two-layer encoding strategy based on operation and machine is designed; Then, a hybrid population initialization method is designed to improve the quality of the initial population; At the same time, crossover and mutation operators and five neighborhood search operators are designed to enhance the global and local search ability of the algorithm; Finally, a large number of simulation experiments verify the effectiveness and superiority of the algorithm.

Published: August 2022

Pancreatic tumor is the deadliest disease which needs earlier identification to reduce the mortality rate. With this motivation, this study introduces a Multi-Objective Metaheuristics with Intelligent Deep Learning Model for Pancreatic Tumor Diagnosis (MOM-IDL) model. The proposed MOM-IDL technique encompasses an adaptive Weiner filter based pre-processing technique to enhance the image quality and get rid of the noise. In addition, multi-level thresholding based segmentation using Kapur’s entropy is employed where the threshold values are optimally chosen by the barnacles mating optimizer (BMO). Besides, densely connected network (DenseNet-169) is employed as a feature extractor and fuzzy support vector machine (FSVM) is utilized as a classifier. For improving the classification performance, the BMO technique was implemented for fine-tuning the parameters of the FSVM model. The design of MOBMO algorithm for threshold selection and parameter optimization processes shows the novelty of the work. A wide range of simulations take place on the benchmark dataset and the experimental results highlighted the enhanced performance of the MOM-IDL technique over the recent state of art techniques.
The Application of PROMETHEE with the recalculated weight method as a more accurate measurement for the selection of the best Hybrid Renewable Energy Technology for a slum building
Authors: Ukpanyang Donald
Published: August 2022

Criteria weights exert much influence on the final outcome of a decision-making process, and with regards to obtaining accurate measurements of criteria weights, the use of the combined weight method, which integrates the subjective and objective weights into a single component has been investigated in the literature. 

The recalculated weight method, which is derived from the application of the Bayes theorem, proposes a more accurate determination of the weights of criteria used in Multi-criteria decision-making. Previous studies on the accuracy of criteria weight determination focus on the combined weight method, where the subjective and objective criteria weights are integrated into a single component, thereby creating a gap in the literature for the exploration of more accurate methods for criteria weight determination.

In this paper, the decision matrix used in the recalculated weight method is obtained from the results of the simulation conducted in a slum settlement in Nigeria, with the use of the HOMER software. The objective weights and subjective weights are obtained initially from the AHP/Fuzzy AHP and Critic/Entropy methods. PROMETHEE method is used to rank the best hybrid renewable energy technology and a comparative analysis between the recalculated weight method and the combined weight method is carried out to determine their level of accuracy. The results obtained are validated with the use of the VIKOR and TOPSIS outranking methods.

Findings from the result reveal that with the recalculated weight method there is 92% accuracy in criteria weight measurement.

Published: August 2022

Recent research has shown that multi-agency emergency response is beset by a range of challenges, calling for a greater understanding of the way in which these teams work together to improve future multi-agency working. Social psychological research shows that a shared identity within a group can improve the way in which that group works together and can facilitate effective outcomes. In the present study, 52 semi-structured interviews were conducted with 17 strategic and tactical responders during the COVID-19 pandemic to understand the possible role of shared identity in the multi-agency response to COVID-19 and whether this was linked to factors that facilitated or challenged interoperability. Findings show evidence of a shared identity at a horizontal inter-group level among responders locally. However, there was limited evidence for a shared identity at the vertical intergroup level between local and national responders. Three key factors linked to shared identity appeared to contribute to an effective multi-agency response. First, pre-existing relationships with other responders facilitated the ease with which responders were able to work together initially. Second, a sense of ‘common fate’ helped bring responders together, and finally, Chairs of groups were able to strategically reinforce a sense of shared identity within the group.
How to Determine Run Time and Irrigation Cycles for Drip Irrigation: Tomato and Pepper Examples

Published: August 2022

Even though drip irrigation is more efficient than the other irrigation methods, proper system management is crucial if that increased efficiency is going to result in water savings and a viable crop. One important aspect of drip irrigation management for crop success is irrigation scheduling, which includes determining both how much and when to irrigate. The grower can use several different methods to help develop a suitable irrigation schedule. Proper scheduling needs to be implemented to take full advantage of the increased drip irrigation efficiency. Two examples are presented in this 5-page fact sheet for tomatoes and peppers, which are two important vegetable crops in Florida, to demonstrate the use of reference evapotranspiration and crop coefficients in developing a drip irrigation schedule. Written by Sanjay Shukla, James M. Knowles, and Niroj K. Shrestha, and published by the UF Department of Agricultural and Biological Engineering, April 2014.

Plant nutrients are one of the environmental factors essential for crop growth and development. Nutrient management is crucial for optimal productivity in commercial crop production. Those nutrients in concentrations of  ≤ 100 parts per million (ppm) in plant tissues are described as micronutrients and include iron (Fe), zinc (Zn), manganese (Mn), copper (Cu), boron (B), chlorine (Cl), molybdenum (Mo), and nickel (Ni). Micronutrients such as Fe, Mn, Zn, and Cu are easily oxidized or precipitated in soil, and their utilization is, therefore, not very efficient. Chelated fertilizers have been developed to increase micronutrient utilization efficiency. This 7-page fact sheet provides an overview of chelated fertilizers and considerations for their use to county Extension faculty, growers, and students who are interested in commercial crop production.

Authors: LeVeen Eric , Hodges Amanda C.
Published: August 2022

The bagrada bug is a pest of concern to Florida agriculture, and there are several similar species with which it may be confused. Bagrada bugs have been detected on plant material in trucks traveling across state borders. Twelve interceptions have been made from 2011-2013 at the FDACS agricultural inspection stations along the interstate at the Florida border. Due to the number of recent interceptions, and the ability of this pest to feed on many plants, the bagrada bug has potential to establish in Florida. Therefore, monitoring, surveillance, and educational efforts have begun in Florida to facilitate early detection and rapid response as the spread of the bagrada bug continues to other areas. This 7-page fact sheet was written by Eric LeVeen and Amanda C. Hodges, and published by the UF Department of Entomology and Nematology, July 2014.

Powdery mildew is one of the most commonly occurring diseases on many types of beans. Although the causal organism rarely causes extensive damage, significant yield losses were reported in Columbia County when infection occurred in dry beans prior to flowering. Accurately identifying this disease and immediately taking action for control are critical to effectively prevent spread of powdery mildew in order to reduce significant losses of yield and quality. This 4-page fact sheet was written by Qingren Wang, Shouan Zhang, and Teresa Olczyk, and published by the UF Department of Plant Pathology, June 2014.

Introdução: E reservado a todo brasileiro com câncer, pela Lei dos 60 Dias, o direito de começar o tratamento em até dois meses. Todavia, estudos anteriores apontam a dificuldade dos pacientes em fazer valer essa normativa ao esbarrarem em problemáticas macroestruturais dos sistemas de saúde. Objetivo: Avaliar a influência de fatores demográficos e relacionados a neoplasia sobre o tempo para início do tratamento oncológico no Brasil. Método: Estudo seccional, desenvolvido com dados oriundos do PAINEL-Oncologia, uma base publica nacional, alimentada por diversas fontes de informação do Sistema Único de Saúde. Como variáveis de interesse, elegeram-se: a) tempo de tratamento; b) sexo; c) idade; d) diagnostico; e) estadiamento; f) modalidade terapêutica. Então, foi analisado o tempo transcorrido entre o diagnóstico e o início do tratamento oncológico. Resultados: Percebeu-se aumento exponencial, ao longo dos anos, da proporção de casos tratados oportunamente, isto e, em até 60 dias, como regulamenta a Lei. Entretanto, ainda e considerável a prevalência de atrasos no início do tratamento, sobretudo entre indivíduos idosos, do sexo masculino, com canceres em estádios menos avançados e que precisaram de radioterapia como primeira modalidade terapêutica. Além disso, o tempo de espera foi especialmente maior para os canceres de órgãos genitais masculinos, de cabeça e pescoço e de mama. Conclusão: Alguns fatores demográficos e relacionados a neoplasia estão envolvidos no atraso do início da terapia oncológica.

The main psychological problems of Chinese athletes in competitive competitions can be summarized from 8 aspects: cognition, emotion, willpower, attention, motivation and attitude, self-evaluation, interpersonal relationship and mental fatigue. We will continue to focus on competitive sports psychology research and strengthen physical education and exercise psychology research. Maintain the traditional research theme of sports psychology and continuously expand new research areas. In terms of research methods, quantitative research and qualitative research should be combined, and empirical research and research methods should be strengthened. Challenges exist in: motion perception and decisionmaking in exercise, neural efficiency and neuroplasticity, self-control and exercise performance, mental health of athletes, dose effects of exercise on mental health, moderators in exercise to promote mental health, exercise The intention-behavior gap promotes mental health, and the neural mechanisms by which exercise promotes mental health.

The article proposes to develop and implement a matrix of distribution of management activities among hospital units. Introduce a methodological approach to assessing the effectiveness of financial resources, which will allow for a comprehensive and objective assessment of efficiency, taking into account the specifics of the hospital, varying degrees of importance of certain aspects of efficiency based on the typological groups of the institution. Communicative interaction of the enterprise with consumers of medical services and information-communicative in the hospital itself requires development in the direction of information support, and as a consequence of strengthening the internal and external image. To do this, the paper proposed a scheme of internal communicative interaction with consumers of medical services through the use of consumer-oriented communication system that characterizes the relationship between doctor and patient, and the ability to manage such a system to provide medical services. The "paternalistic" system of doctor-patient relations that exists today.
