Sistema de clasificación de paisajes para Uruguay. Herramienta para la planificación y conservación
Authors:   , Panario Daniel
Published: October 2022

La presente propuesta tiene sus orígenes en un trabajo de relevamiento de suelos a escala 1:40.000 de todo Uruguay que realizáramos en la década de 1970 y su posterior digitalización en SIG. A los efectos de generar un sistema jerárquico con unidades anidadas (de cientos de miles de hectáreas) a partir de la unidad de mayor resolución la que se denominó sitio o complejo de sitios (siguiendo la usanza tradicional); las que se agrupan en Distritos, con el criterio geomorfológico de la relación pendienteprocesos; y finalmente en Eco-zonas siguiendo un criterio de unidades morfo-geoestructurales sobre la base de una revisión de la historia geológica del territorio y los procesos geomorfológicos que actuaron sobre ella desde el Cretácico al Holoceno. Las unidades mayores se clasifican según un criterio climático (Koëpen), aunque todo el Uruguay se encuentre incluido en una única Provincia. Luego a partir de la revisión de formas de vida y la presencia/ausencia de vertebrados y cruzar con los registros de distribución de especies, se generalizan las Eco-zonas en Eco-regiones. Fue dividido el territorio en cuadrículas, a los efectos de determinar la diversidad de especies atribuyendo cada especie a la Eco-zona cuyo hábitat coincidiera con los requerimientos de la especie para luego desarrollar una propuesta de corredores ecológicos. El presente trabajo implicó la clasificación por su similitud de respuesta ecosistémica de 33.608 polígonos que estaban agrupados en 188 unidades de suelo con diferentes resoluciones espacial, en un número menor de Sitios o Complejos de Sitios, los que se agruparon a su vez, en Distritos, Eco-zonas y Eco-regiones en el marco de una Clasificación de Paisaje jerárquica y anidada. El Sitio fue caracterizado por variables intrínsecamente asociadas a procesos genéticos vinculados a las vertientes, como son la edafización y la morfogénesis, tomando en consideración variables ambientales y además la pendiente en la cual se encuentra inserto.

Context: Infections by multiresistant bacteria increase the risk of therapeutic failure, increasing hospital stay, costs and mortality. This determines the use of more expensive antibacterials with a broader spectrum, which leads to a high consumption at the hospital level, which increases bacterial resistance. Aims: To characterize the consumption of antibacterials in three hospitals in Santiago de Cuba. Methods: A descriptive and cross-sectional study of consumption was carried out. The consumed units, anatomical, therapeutic, and chemical classification, route of administration and price were analyzed for each antimicrobial. The defined daily dose (DDD)/100 beds/day and the cost of antibacterials for systemic use were determined. Descriptive statistics were used. Results: The most used antibacterial in both years (2019 and 2020) was ceftriaxone (12.6% and 26.9%). The most used group was J01D (39.5% and 44.8%), mainly parenteral via. In 2019 they presented higher DDD/100 beds/day: gentamicin (38.74 in the General Hospital and 20.20 in the Maternal Hospital) and ciprofloxacin (31.51 in the General Hospital and 15.00 in the Oncology Hospital); and in 2020 it was cefazolin (41.42 in General Hospital), ciprofloxacin (17.73 in Oncology) and gentamicin (26.99 in Maternal). The highest total costs were for ciprofloxacin and ceftriaxone. Conclusions: The increase in consumption evidenced the need to update therapeutic policies and validation of prescriptions for this group of drugs.

Sorghum ranks 5th in the cereal’s crops having 60 million tonnes annual production. it is important food, feed as well as forage crop and provides raw material for fibbers, biofuel, starch and alcohol. It is very diverse crop; therefore, genetic fingerprints require for the estimation of diversity. The present study was conducted to develop fingerprints and for the estimation of genetic diversity through morphological and molecular characterization. Genetic divergence pattern was assessed among 82 sorghum accessions by evaluating the 9 different parameters for growing season. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) revealed that all parameters had significant differences. The Principal Component analysis showed that 1st three Principal Components (PCs) having eigen value >1 and shared 29.95% variability and 26.57% variation for all parameters. Correlation exhibited that leaf width, plant height, and panicle length had positive correlation with leaf length. Biplot analysis exhibited that plant height, leaf length, grain number/panicle and 100-grain weight had positive and positive coordinates while none of the parameters lies in negative and negative coordinates. The molecular relationship among 96 sorghum accessions was estimated through 16 SSRs markers techniques. Analysis revealed that 99 alleles were analyzed by SSRs. Maximum allelic frequency was observed 1 at locus Sorg6 and Sorg11. Polymorphic information content (PIC) showed that locus Sorg16 had maximum value (0.88) while maximum heterozygosity was 0.85 at locus Sorg5. Dendrogram was constructed on 96 accessions by 16 SSRs and analysis revealed that 30 morphotypes were produced. This study depicted that SSRs had discriminating power for the estimation of genetic diversity. In addition, the sorghum germplasm showed maximum diversity in Pakistan climate season.

Authors: Saadi Toheed
Published: October 2022

Dairy farming is an ancient traditional value of our society because it is an essential component of daily life. The farm animal’s area performs a fundamental position in national and rural economy of our country. Milk is a main product get from farm animals and the 3rd major milk producing country is Pakistan within the global. Dairy farming practices within the country are very primitive and traditional. About 70% of the entire milk quantity in the country produced by Punjab Province. Okara is one among the foremost irrigated and milk production area of Pakistan. Milk is viewed as a significant wellspring of complete diet.The current research work was designed to examine the behaviors of progressive and conventional dairy farms and the effect of these practices on milk output in the Okara District. The proximate composition of milk collected from conventional farms was relatively poor as compared to milk collected from progressive farms according to the standards. The proximate analysis revealed that the percentages for good quality milk samples for different parameters were 86.67%, 82.22%, 77.78%, 91.11%, 91.11% and 97.78% with respect to fat, acidity, moisture, ash, protein and pH, respectively irrespective of farm practices. Similarly with respect to pesticide residues, there were variable results. The ratio of good quality milk sample for bifenthrine residues was found to be less (95.56 % samples) in case of conventional farms as compared to progressive farms whereas for carbofuran residues the ratio of good quality samples was relative (86.67% samples) higher in case of conventional farms rather than that for progressive farms. Similarly adulteration of milk is most common problem in conventional farms.

Peanut (Arachis hypogaea) shells are not easily degradable in the natural environment so mushroom cultivation can easily convert the cellulosic material into protein with less effort and time. Research was conducted on the Pleurotus pulmonaris cultivation by utilizing chiefly peanut shell along with other agricultural wastes such as wheat straw, cotton straw and Paper waste. Cultivation of oyster mushroom was observed on peanut shell substrate by mixing it with cotton waste, wheat straw and paper waste. It was found that the best yield 337.68 g of mushroom was observed when peanut shell was mixed with cotton waste with maximum biological efficiency 33.38%. While the minimum yield 156.58 g was observed when peanut shell alone was used as substrate with minimum biological efficiency 18.21%.
A COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW ON ROLE OF NANOTECHNOLOGY IN THE SOIL POLLUTANTS REMEDIATION
Authors: Ahsan Muhammad
Published: October 2022

The degradation and pollution of soil remain a significant environmental problem and its recovery is a worldwide concern. Global soil degradation has a serious adverse impact on food security, agricultural production, and human well-being; therefore, it requires immediate attention. This global problem is further exacerbated by the poisoning of soil with heavy metals, pesticides and persistent organic contaminants. The bioaccumulation of these pollutants in the soil increases the danger of food chain contamination. The need to produce more food and prevent further soil erosion severely hamper agricultural productivity. The revitalization of the contaminated soil resources could be feasible using nano-based soil remediation. Applications based on nanotechnology are inexpensive, easy to apply, and suggest more efficient treatment and remediation. The aims of this review to examine the potential of nano-based rehabilitation of soil polluted with pesticides, heavy metals and their residues as well as with persistent organic contaminants and to investigate how this technology can improve bioremediation and phytoremediation.

Multivariate statistical process control charts are used for process monitoring and control of two or more variables simultaneously for quality and quality improvement. A popular multivariate control chart is used to monitor the mean vector of the process. A usual problem in the multivariate control chart is the identification and interpretation of variable(s) for an out-of-control signal that occurred in the chart. This has brought many developed techniques from many researchers to aid in finding the responsible variable(s) that caused the out-of-control signal in the chart. This work is aimed at a comparative study of some developed techniques for identifying and interpreting an out-of-control signal, in the multivariate control chart when applied on the cable production process. The techniques are Mason-Tracy-Young, Donganaksoy-Faltin-Tucker, Univariate -chart using Bonferroni control limits by Alt and Principal component analysis by Jackson. A performance criterion, the power of the test was used to ascertain the most satisfactory technique that explained the out-of-control signal that occurred in -chart. From the results and discussions, Mason Tracy-Young and Doganaksoy-Faltin-Tucker techniques are the most satisfactory for identifying and interpreting an out-of-control signal in the multivariate control chart.

We study enhancement of cross-Kerr nonlinearity in four-level N-type atomic system by the analytical method. The results apply to the 87Rb atoms and show that in the presence of the EIT effect (i.e., the presence of coupling laser field), the Kerr nonlinear coefficient is enhanced several order of magnitudes (about 10-6 cm2/W) around the EIT window. That is, on the Kerr nonlinear graph the two positive and negative values are found on both sides of the resonant frequency. The amplitude and sign of the Kerr nonlinear coefficient can be controlled versus the intensity or frequency of the coupling laser field. Analytical results are useful for experimental observation and related applications.

This study aims to learn about the preparation and properties of alginate/chitosan polyme films blend carrying lovastatin drug. Some characteristics of composite films have been investigated by many methods, such as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), differential scanning calorimeter and swelling capacity. The results show that the composite had a relatively homogeneous distribution of lovastatin. The chararcteristic signs in the FTIR of each agent still appeared in the FTIR spectra of the composite films however they had a slightly shift. This proved that the alginate, chitosan and lovastatin had strong interaction together by the dipole-dipole interaction and hydrogen bonding between the amine and hydroxyl groups in chitosan with the carboxyl group in alginate. The melting temperature of the composite films were lower than these of lovastatin and the films were able to swell in water for 3-4 hours, then disintegrate over time as alginate dissolved.

In this study, the inducible function of sodium nitroprusside (SNP, a nitric oxide donor) was evaluated based on the changes in some biochemical characteristics of mungbean (Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek cv. DX208) involving resistance to cowpea aphid (Aphis craccivora Koch). SNP treatment was sufficient to increase content of chlorophylls, reduced aphid-infested damage, accumulated biosynthesis of antioxidants such as phenolic compounds and flavonoids in mungbean plants attacked by A. craccivora. Furthermore, SNP was also capable of either negatively altering the lifetime or diminishing fecundity of cowpea aphid. Those results demonstrated that SNP application improved the biochemical resistance of V. radiata cv. DX208 against its pest, A. craccivora.

The internationalization of teacher training and the demand for the reform of secondary education in Vietnam after 2018 require teacher training to shift from content-based approach to competency-based approach. Pedagogical instituitions should give more importance to competence-based knowledge rather than focusing too much on theory part. In order to meet these requirements, there has been a need to study about professional competency and training pre-service teachers in the orientation of professional competency standards. This article presents the authors’ conception of competence, professional competence, teachers’ professional standards, and competency assessment of pedagogical students. Specifically, the authors propose a competency framework for teachers through a benchmark of 30 standards and 76 criteria as the basis for pre-service teachers’ competency assessment.

Authors:   Vinh University, Nghe An, Viet Nam, Huu Quyet NGUYEN , A. Biafora FRANK ,   University of South Florida, USA
Published: October 2022

This report attempts to offer fundamentals in teacher training and development in the United States. The report is structured around the following five components designed in the form of questionnaires: (1) Teacher education programs which involve entry requirements, training curriculum, and exit standards; (2) teacher certification requirements; (3) teacher recruitment requirements; (4) continuing education and support for beginning teachers; and (5) providers and governance of teacher education and certification. One of the most striking findings is that while entry requirements for teacher education are flexible, if not downplaying, across the states, the curriculum places a particular focus on the subject area content courses and, more importantly, on coursework in education and pedagogical skills, together with a long period of in-school student teaching, as prerequisites for graduation. Let alone such practice-based exit requirements, the quality of prospective teachers is checked upon by teacher licensure testing and further empowered by regular induction programs and professional development with an ultimate goal of meeting the eleven professional standards for teachers. With these, the report reveals systematic differences in the practices of teacher education programs, certification, and professional development, among other things, in the United States as compared with those in Vietnam.

Published: October 2022

Rubber tracked running gears are widely used in high-mobility Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGV) to increase obstacle negotiation possibility in urban and rural terrain. The paper proposes a method of assessing the configuration of the light UGV`s tracked running gear in terms of the ability to overcome terrain obstacles. Five types of obstacles have been proposed: a road ditch, a lying log, a curb, a crop rows and a wavy meadow profile. Then designed four types of running gear with the same geometrical and mass parameters, differing in the way of applying the running wheels (rigid construction, consisted of sprocket, idler and four road wheels, two bogies solution, system with two bogies elastically mounted to frame and rocker-bogie construction). To compare the selected solutions, simulation in the multi-body environment program and the equations based on the Bekker theory was performed. The simulation results showed an improvement in the driving properties with the use of elastically suspended elements. Better copying of the shape of the obstacle by the running gear contributes to the required tractive effort at lower slip values. At the same time, the negative impact of elastically suspended elements on the platform's stability was indicated.

Numerous studies have shown that ankylosing spondylitis is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease including heart failure, acute myocardial infarction, stroke, transient ischemic attack, and cardiovascular mortality. This may be a direct result of inflammation or an indirect one from the use of anti-inflammatory drugs needed to treat ankylosing spondylitis, or from the coexistence of traditional risk factors. This is a retrospective case-control study of the occurrence of cardiovascular events in ankylosing spondylitis patients and matched controls. Data was obtained from the Myocardial Infarction Data Acquisition System, a statewide database containing hospitalizations for cardiovascular diseases in New Jersey. Two types of analyses were performed: unadjusted and adjusted for comorbidities. The odds ratio of developing heart failure in the ankylosing spondylitis group vs. matched controls was 1.59 (95% CI 1.44 - 1.76, p < 0.001) in the unadjusted model and 1.31 (95% CI 1.18 - 1.47, p < 0.001) after adjustment for hypertension, diabetes mellitus, acute kidney failure/chronic kidney disease, chronic liver disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and hyperlipidemia. Similarly, risks of myocardial infarction and cardiovascular mortality in ankylosing spondylitis patients were significantly higher in both, unadjusted and adjusted models while odds ratio for transient ischemic attack became non-significant after the adjustment. Ankylosing spondylitis is associated with increased rates of the cardiovascular disease that are probably due of pathophysiologic changes attendant to the disease, as well as the presence of the comorbidities.

D-ALLOSE: A RARE SUGAR TO SWEETEN CANCER CELLS
Authors: Gutiérrez-Pajares Jorge
Published: October 2022

D-Allose is considered a rare sugar with potential to regulate glucose metabolism. In this review of the literature, scientific evidence is presented to support the role of D-Allose as an antiproliferative inhibitor of a variety of cancers by principally up-regulating the Thioredoxin-Interacting Protein. Due to the multiple chemical and enzymatic ways to produce D-Allose and its safety; this low-calorie sugar could be proposed as an ingredient for functional foods for cancer under chemotherapy treatment.
Ionospheric Electron Density and Electron Content Models for Space Weather Monitoring
Authors: Rukundo Wellen
Published: October 2022

Monitoring and prediction of space weather phenomena and associated effects requires an understanding of the ionospheric response related to ionospheric electron content and electron density redistribution. These ionospheric response effects to space weather over time have been quantified by ground station measurements (ionosondes, radars, and GPS), satellite and rocket measurements, and estimations from ionospheric models. However, the progressive development of ionospheric models has had inconsistences in trying to describe the redistribution of electron density in response to extreme space weather conditions. In this chapter, we review and discuss the recent developments, progress, improvements, and existing challenges in the developed ionospheric models for prediction and forecasting space weather events and the need for continuous validation. The utilization of deep learning and neural network techniques in developing more flexible, reliable, and accurate data-driven ionospheric models for space weather prediction is also discussed. We also emphasized the roles of International and national Organizations like COSPAR, URSI, ITU, CCIR, and other research and education institutions in supporting and maintaining observatories for real-time monitoring and measurements of ionospheric electron density and TEC.
Effect of GW9662 and T0070907 Antagonist of PPARg and Their Coadministration Pairwise with Obestatin on Lipid Profile of DIO-C57BL/6 Mice
Authors: G. Mallikarjuna Beekanahalli , V. Manjappara Uma
Published: October 2022

Obestatin and its fragment analog Nt8U were shown to upregulate glycerolipid metabolism and PPARg signaling and decrease fat accumulation in Swiss albino mice. It was further investigated if these peptides could decrease lipid accumulation under obese conditions. We chose to work on Diet-Induced-Obese (DIO) C57BL/6 mice to study the same. Both obestatin and Nt8U decreased lipid accumulation in DIO-C57BL/6 mice. PPARg was not upregulated in comparison to 60% high-fat diet (HFD) fed control mice, implying there was already enhanced PPARg expression due to HFD consumption. We also wanted to investigate if upregulation of PPARg signaling was a secondary effect of enhanced glycerolipid metabolism. To investigate the same, we administered obestatin pairwise with 2 agonists and 2 antagonists of PPARg. The results revealed obestatin is not a mere agonist of PPARg but can also decrease lipid accumulation brought about by rosiglitazone, a well-studied agonist of PPARg. The antagonists also show a further decrease in lipid accumulation, probably due to inhibition of PPARg activity brought about by HFD and the additive decrease brought about by obestatin in DIO-C57BL/6 mice. This chapter will be structured to briefly introduce obestatin, Nt8U, their effect on gene expression in the adipose tissue, and the effect of PPARg agonists and antagonists on their ability to reduce fat accumulation.

Published: October 2022

Soil-transmitted helminth (STH) and Schistosomiasis infections remain prevalent in developing countries. In Ghana, periodic mass drug administration (MDA) exercise has been implemented to tackle these infections, however, information on drug treatment failure and knowledge of the infection trend is needed for evaluating and modifying existing control programs. This study assessed the knowledge, attitude and practices (KAP) that predispose Basic School pupils to Schistosomiasis and soil-transmitted helminth infections and determined the rate of treatment failure against the worms after school mass drug administration (MDA). A cross-sectional study with a structured questionnaire was used to obtain information on the KAP among pupils who had undergone a MDA (albendazole and praziquantel) exercise 21 days prior. A majority of the pupils interviewed had knowledge of helminthiasis. There were significant associations between helminthic infection and source of drinking water (river; p = 0.013), the number of individuals who share toilet facilities (p = 0.049) and garbage disposal into a river (p = 0.015). Treatment failure of 7.2% was recorded for all the helminthic infections. Potential drug treatment failure of albendazole against hookworm infection and praziquantel against Schistosomiasis infection was thus evident within the population.
Association of Peroxisomes, Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) and Antioxidants: Insights from Preclinical and Clinical Evaluations
Authors: Fatima Nishat
Published: October 2022

Peroxisome function has long been associated with oxygen metabolism. High concentrations of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2−) producing oxidases are in the set of peroxisomes and their antioxidant enzymes, especially catalase. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) can certainly be considered as an intracellular multifunctional biological factor which are released and scevenged in peroxisomes. They are known to be involved in normal cellular functions such as signaling mediators, overproduction under oxidative stress conditions leading to adverse cellular effects, cell death, and various other pathological conditions. This review provides an insight into the relationship between peroxisomes and ROS, which are emerging as key players in the dynamic rotation of ROS metabolism and oxidative damage. Various conditions upset the balance between ROS production and removal in peroxisomes. The current review also targets the ROS-inhibiting enzymes and exemplifying the effects of antioxidants in pre-clinical and clinical evaluation of natural and herbal supplements.
