Salvia transhimalaica Yonek., recently described from Mustang, is reduced to synonymy under S. przewalskii Maxim. A key to the species of Salvia in Nepal is presented.
A SURVEY OF ALUMINIUM ACCUMULATION IN EUMACHIA (RUBIACEAE)
Authors: Turner Ian M , Brearley Francis Q , Trethowan Liam A , Utteridge Timothy M A
Published: May 2021

A useful character for spotting specimens of the pantropical Rubiaceae genus Eumachia is the leaves drying green. The physiological reasons for this are unresolved. We investigated whether the phenomenon is related to the accumulation of aluminium. Samples of foliage from herbarium specimens of nine species of Eumachia (Rubiaceae), including collections from Asia-Pacific, Africa and the Americas, were analysed for elemental concentrations. For comparison, specimens of the closely related genera Psychotria and Palicourea from similar geographical regions were also analysed. Two species, Palicourea violacea (Panama) and Psychotria pallens (Brazil) were found to be aluminium hyperaccumulators (≥ 1% Al by dry weight), with a third species, Eumachia collina (from New Caledonia), falling just short of the threshold with 0.99% Al. Aluminium accumulation (≥ 0.4% Al by dry weight) occurs but is infrequent among species of Eumachia and appears lesscommon than in the close relative Palicourea. Aluminium accumulation also appears patchy in Psychotria sensu stricto. It seems unlikely that herbarium greenness in Eumachia is directly related to aluminium accumulation.

USING HERBARIUM DATA TO INCREASE THE LIKELIHOOD OF FINDING FERTILE PLANTS IN THE FIELD
Authors: Silva J. S. , Lenza E. , Moreira A. L. C. , Proença C. E. B.
Published: May 2021

The Phenological Predictability Index (PPI) is an algorithm incorporated into Brahms, one of the most widely used herbarium database management systems. PPI uses herbarium specimen data to calculate the probability of the occurrence of various phenological events in the field. Our hypothesis was that use of PPI to quantify the likelihood that a given species will be found in flower bud, flower or fruit in a particular area in a specific period makes field expeditions more successful in terms of finding fertile plants. PPI was applied to herbarium data for various angiosperm species locally abundant in Central Brazil to determine the month in which they were most likely to be found, in each of five areas of the Distrito Federal, with flower buds, flowers or fruits (i.e. the ‘maximum probability month’ for each of these phenophases). Plants of the selected species growing along randomised transects were tagged and their phenology was monitored over 12 months (method 1), and two one-day field excursions to each area were undertaken, by botanists with no prior knowledge of whether the species had previously been recorded at these sites, to record their phenological state (method 2). The results showed that field excursions in the PPI-determined maximum probability month for flower buds, flowers or fruits would be expected to result in a > 90% likelihood of finding individual plants of a given species in each of these phenophases. PPI may fail to predict phenophase for species with supra-annual reproductive events or with high event contingency. For bimodal species, the PPI-determined maximum probability month is that in which a specific phenophase is likely to be most intense. In planning an all-purpose collecting trip to an area with seasonal plant fertility, PPI scores are useful when selecting the best month for travel.
THE VIOLETS OF THE BRAZILIAN SAVANNA: A REVISION OF THE POMBALIA LANATA COMPLEX (VIOLACEAE), WITH DESCRIPTIONS OF TWO NEW SPECIES
Authors: Paula-Souza J. , Lima A. G. , Souza V. C.
Published: May 2021

Pombalia Vand. (Violaceae) is represented in the Cerrado by a well-supported monophyletic group of species known as the Pombalia lanata complex, characterised by some unique vegetative and reproductive features within the genus. This group includes six species – Pombalia cristalina, P. insignis, P. lanata, P. poaya, P. strigoides and P. velutina – the first two of which are new to science. Pombalia lanata shows the widest geographical distribution throughout the Central Brazilian Plateau and the Espinhaço Range in Minas Gerais state, with a disjunction in Misiones Province, Argentina. Because most species in this group are narrow endemics, we evaluated the conservation status of all taxa. An identification key for the species, descriptions, illustrations, maps of geographical distribution and nomenclatural notes are also provided.

Authors: Khalik Muhammad Fathur Rahman , Putro Nur Hidayanto Pancoro Setyo
Published: May 2021

Background:

The application of mobile learning (m-learning), especially in the area of language learning, has gained interest in the last several years due to the benefits offered by mobile devices. However, to maximize the effectiveness of m-learning, students are required to be ready. Thus, it is crucial to assess studentsâ€™ readiness before implementing m-learning. By focusing on rural schools, this quantitative study aims to examine studentsâ€™ readiness in implementing m-learning in their English language learning.

Methodology:

This study employed a survey design to measure m-learning readiness of senior high school students by investigating three factors, namely mobile self-efficacy, optimism, and self-directed learning. Through an online questionnaire, 140 responses were successfully collected from students in two public senior high schools (one high school and one vocational high school) located in a rural area in Soppeng, Indonesia. The data collected were subsequently analyzed using SPSS Statistics ver. 25.

Findings:

The results revealed that senior high school students from a rural area in Soppeng, Indonesia, had a high level of self-efficacy and optimism in implementing m-learning in their English language learning. However, their self-directed learning was still at a moderate level. Moreover, further analysis showed that type of school significantly affected studentsâ€™ mobile self-efficacy and optimism, while self-directed learning was not affected.

Conclusion:

Students from rural senior high schools in Soppeng, Indonesia, showed readiness in implementing m-learning for English language learning purposes.
An Exploration of Opportunities and Barriers for Implementing Urban Agriculture at Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario
Authors: Minielly Rebecca
Published: May 2021

Previous qualitative studies of urban agriculture (UA) in neighbourhood contexts suggest that UA projects do have the potential to contribute positively to community sustainability. Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario expresses a commitment to sustainability. This qualitative study is concerned with the capacity of UA at a university campus scale to fulfill Queen’s commitment to sustainability. Is UA possible here and will it contribute significantly to sustainability?  A thorough literature review of urban agriculture, community sustainability, and institutional land use planning is a major component of the research. A review of food and sustainability policy in Kingston and at Queen’s is another component. As the study progresses it will also include 7-10 semi structured interviews. Each participant will be involved with either campus UA at another university, the management of Queen’s land use, or Queen’s food and sustainability projects. Due to the length of the Queen’s ethics approval procedure, primary research for this study has not yet been conducted.  The Queen's Sustainability website suggests that Queen’s campus has one community garden and it "consistently has a waiting list". Meanwhile, the Physical Plant Services website states that Queen's has over 140 acres of green space. There is plenty of opportunity for UA at Queen's. This thesis draws on literature review to explain the potential opportunities and barriers for UA in general, while policy analysis will expose opportunities and barriers for UA at Queen’s in particular. Going forward, informational interviews will also be necessary to understand opportunities and barriers for UA at Queen’s.
Bhasin v Hrynew - The New Duty of Good Faith in Contract
Authors: Scott Brittany
Published: May 2021

Over the past number of years, the law surrounding the requirement to operate in good faith in conducting contractual obligations has been a developing principle in common law countries from Australia, to the United Kingdom to Canada. In Canada, this principle has developed separately within the civil and common law legal traditions respectively. While the Quebec Civil Code has historically provided for an expectation of parties to a contract to operate in good faith, the common law in Canada has not been as clear.  Prior to 2014, the Canadian common law duty to negotiate in good faith was an unsettled body of law, recognized in certain areas, but not across the discipline as a whole. It has only been since the Supreme Court of Canada decision in Bhasin v. Hrynew that this duty to negotiate in good faith has been outlined as a coherent set of guiding principles. Parties to a contract are now both bound by a general organizing principle of good faith in contracts and are expected to act honestly in the performance of their contractual obligations. While new to the Canadian common law, numerous cases have been quick to test the court’s interpretation of this change in scope to the law of good faith. As Canadian common law jurisprudence moves forward, this principle will continue to expand and develop.

Patients with clinical T1aN0M0 Non-Small Cell Carcinoma (NSCLC) or poor pulmonary function may benefit more from segmentectomy compared to lobectomy. However, there is question about segmentectomy provides not enough safe margin, especially for nodules situated at the intersegmental area. We describe a novel technique using image-guided Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (iVATS) to accomplish extended segmentectomy for central lung nodules. This technique helps to overcome the challenges of nodules situated at the intersegmental area.
On the Estimation of the Molecular Inaccessible Volume and the Molecular Accessible Surface of a Ligand in Protein Ligand Systems
Authors: Konstantinidis Konstantinos , Karakasiliοtis Ioannis , Anagnostopoulos Kostas , Boulougouris Georgios
Published: May 2021

In this work, a novel approach is proposed based on the accurate computation of a protein’s inaccessible volume as regards to a ligand, plus the corresponding surface area, where the ligand can be placed in order to “touch” the protein without any overlaps. The proposed approach can be thought as an extension of the widely used concept of the Solvent-Accessible Surface Area (SASA), evaluating the surface generated by the ligand while being rolled over all the atoms of the protein without penetrating them. Identification of the inaccessible volume of each candidate protein-ligand pair is also provided in the context of this study, along with the boundary surface where the ligand can be placed so as to be in “contact” with the protein, which is expected to significantly enhance the ability to investigate specific protein drug interactions.
Probabilistic Random Forest Improves Bioactivity Predictions Close to the Classification Threshold by Taking into Account Experimental Uncertainty
Authors: Mervin Lewis , Trapotsi Maria-Anna , Afzal Avid M. , Barrett Ian , Bender Andreas , Engkvist Ola
Published: May 2021

In the context of small molecule property prediction, experimental errors are usually a neglected aspect during model generation. The main caveat to binary classification approaches is that they weight minority cases close to the threshold boundary equivalently in distinguishing between activity classes. For example, a pXC50 activity value of 5.1 or 4.9 are treated equally important in contributing to the opposing activity (e.g., classification threshold of 5), even though experimental error may not afford such discriminatory accuracy. This is detrimental in practice and therefore it is equally important to evaluate the presence of experimental error in databases and apply methodologies to account for variability in experiments and uncertainty near the decision boundary.

In order to improve upon this, we herein present a novel approach toward predicting protein-ligand interactions using a Probabilistic Random Forest (PRF) classifier. The PRF comprises a modification to the long-established Random Forest (RF), to take into account uncertainties in the assigned classes (i.e., activity labels). This enables representing the activity in a framework in-between the classification and regression architecture, with philosophical differences from either approach. Compared to classification, this approach enables better representation of factors increasing/decreasing inactivity. Conversely, one can utilize all data (even delimited/operand/censored data far from a cut-off) at the same time as taking into account the granularity around the cut-off, compared to a classical regression framework. The algorithm was applied toward ~550 target prediction tasks from ChEMBL and PubChem. The largest benefit in incorporating the experimental deviation in PRF was observed for data points close to the binary threshold boundary, when such information is not considered in any way in the original RF algorithm. In comparison, the baseline RF outperformed PRF for cases with high confidence to belong to the active class (far from the binary decision threshold). The RF models gave errors smaller than the experimental uncertainty, which could indicate that they are overtrained and/or over-confident. Overall, we show that PRF can be useful for target prediction models in particular for data where class boundaries overlap with the measurement uncertainty, and where a substantial part of the training data is located close to the classification threshold. With this approach, we present, to our knowledge, for the first time an application of probabilistic modelling of activity data for target prediction using the PRF algorithm.
Coherent Acoustic Interferometry During the Photo-Driven Oxygen Evolution Reaction Associates Strain Fields with the Reactive Oxygen Intermediate
Authors: Singh Suryansh , Lyle Hanna , D'Amario Luca , Magnano Elena , Vinogradov Ilya , Cuk Tanja
Published: May 2021

The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) from water requires the formation of meta-stable, reactive oxygen intermediates to enable oxygen-oxygen bond formation. On the other hand, such reactive intermediates could also structurally modify the catalyst. A descriptor for the overall catalytic activity, the first electron and proton transfer OER intermediate from water, (M-OH*), has been associated with significant distortions of the metal-oxygen bonds upon charge-trapping. Time-resolved spectroscopy of in-situ, photo-driven OER on transition metal oxide surfaces has characterized M-OH* for the charge trapped and the symmetry of the lattice distortions by optical and vibrational transitions, respectively, but had yet to detect an interfacial strain field arising from a surface coverage M-OH*. Here, we utilize picosecond, coherent acoustic interferometry to detect the uniaxial strain normal (100) to the SrTiO3/aqueous interface directly caused by Ti-OH*. The spectral analysis applies a fairly general methodology for detecting a combination of the spatial extent, magnitude, and generation time of the interfacial strain through the coherent oscillations’

phase. For lightly n-doped SrTiO3, we identify the strain generation time (1.31 ps), which occurs simultaneously with Ti-OH* formation, and a tensile strain of 0.06% (upper limit 0.6%). In addition to fully characterizing this intermediate across visible, mid-infrared, and now GHz-THz probes on SrTiO3, that strain fields occur with the creation of some M-OH* modifies design strategies for tuning material properties for catalytic activity and provides insight into photo-induced degradation so prevalent for OER. To that end, the work put forth here provides a unique methodology to characterize intermediate-induced interfacial strain across OER catalysts.

Published: May 2021

This paper mainly studies the impact of evaluation information on e-commerce platform on the future of products. Through natural language processing and rating, an evaluation model based on user rating and evaluation is defined to measure product quality. Among them, evaluations are differentiated: review sentiment coefficient (R) and review length (L).The evaluation model is:D=0.3*S+0.7*( 0.3*L+0.7*R). In order to predict the future reputation of products, based on the above evaluation model, time series is used to rank the products studied. Each customer purchases the product through Markov chain model, so as to predict the probability of future word-of-mouth spread of the product. Use TOPSIS method to select monthly sales, stars and comment sentiment coefficient as indicators. The comprehensive measurement method based on text and score is determined to predict whether the product is successfully promoted.

AbstrakMahasiswa profesi dihadapkan dengan berbagai stresor yang rentan  menimbulkan stres. Stres dapat berpengaruh menurunkan fokus yang dapat berakibat pada ketidakefektifan pembelajaran. Komunikasi suportif merupakan bentuk dukungan yang dapat menurunkan tekanan emosional dan meningkatkan mekanisme koping sehingga berpotensi menurunkan stres. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk  mengidentifikasi bagaimana hubungan antara komunikasi suportif keluarga terhadap tingkat stres pada mahasiswa program profesi Fakultas Keperawatan Universitas Padjadjaran. Metode dalam penelitian ini adalah deskriptif korelasional. Pemilihan sampel menggunakan metode total sampling yaitu 66 mahasiswa program profesi semester 1 tahun ajaran 2017/2018. Instrumen yang digunakan terdiri dari dua kuesioner, yaitu Student–Life Stress Inventory dan Experienced Support Instrument. Analisa univariat dilakukan dengan penyajian tabel distribusi frekuensi dan analisa bivariat dilakukan uji metode Kolmogorov Smirnov. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan responden berada ditingkat komunikasi suportif rendah yaitu 43 orang (70.5%). Tingkat stres terbanyak stres sedang yaitu 46 orang (75.4%). Hasil uji statistik menggunakan Kolmogrov Smirnov, didapatkan p value=1.000 (α=0.05), karena p>α, maka dapat disimpulkan bahwa tidak terdapat korelasi antara komunikasi suportif keluarga terhadap tingkat stres pada responden penelitian ini. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian maka perlu dikaji lebih jauh hal apa saja yang dapat mempengaruhi stres serta mencari penyebab stres spesifik pada mahasiswa profesi.

Constructivist Learning Amid the COVID-19 Pandemic: Investigating Students’ Perceptions of Biology Self-Learning Modules
Authors: Funa Aaron A. , Talaue Frederick T.
Published: May 2021

Modes of teaching and learning have had to rapidly shift amid the COVID-19 pandemic. As an emergency response, students from Philippine public schools were provided learning modules based on a minimized list of essential learning competencies in Biology. Using a cross-sectional survey method, we investigated students’ perceptions of the Biology self-learning modules (BSLM) that were designed in print and digitized formats according to a constructivist learning approach. Senior high school STEM students from grades 11 (n = 117) and 12 (n = 104) participated in a survey using a 3-point Likert-scale questionnaire uploaded online through Google Forms. The survey results indicate that majority of the students perceived the modules positively, suggesting that aspects of the modules that were salient to students corresponded to essential elements of constructivist pedagogies. However, during interviews, students reported several difficulties in learning with BSLM as it was constrained by, to name a few, the use of unfamiliar words, lack of access to supporting resources, slow internet connection, and time constraints. To address these problems, teachers reported that they gave deadline extensions, complemented modules with other channels of support, and used online and offline platforms for reaching out to students to answer their queries and plan out their schedule for the week. The findings across the data sources point to the complex demands of emergency distance education that teachers, as curriculum designers and enactors, need to bear in mind in order to craft productive pedagogies, constructivist or otherwise, during this unprecedented time.
An Improved Radiative Transfer Model for Polarimetric Backscattering from Agricultural Fields at C- and X-Bands
Authors: Oh Yisok , Chang Jisung Geba , Shoshany Maxim
Published: May 2021

The first-order vector radiative transfer model (FVRTM) is modified mainly by examining the effects of leaf curvature of vegetation canopies, the higher-order multiple scattering among vegetation scattering particles, and the underlying-surface roughness for forward reflection on radar backscattering from farming fields at C- and X-bands. At first, we collected the backscattering coefficients measured by scatterometers and space-borne synthetic aperture radar (SAR), field-measured ground-truth data sets, and theoretical scattering models for radar backscattering from vegetation fields at microwaves. Then, these effects on the RTM were examined using the database at the C- and X-bands. Finally, an improved RTM was obtained by adjusting its parameters, mainly related with the leaf curvature, the higher-order multiple scattering, and the underlying-surface small-roughness characteristics, and its accuracy was verified by comparisons between the improved RTM and measurement data sets.
Improving the Force and Time Response of a DC Solenoid Electromagnetic Actuator by Changing the Lower Core Angle

Published: May 2021

The aim of almost any electromagnetic actuator development is to increase the electromagnetic force with which an actuator acts on a plunger with as fast a time response as possible while maintaining the dimensions as small as possible. This paper presents research on the impact of the lower core angle on the force and time response of a DC solenoid electromagnetic actuator. The research method is based on the analytical analysis of the magnetic path of the DC solenoid electromagnetic actuator and a comparison with the numerical simulation results. A transient numerical simulation was performed on a 2D axial-symmetric model of the electromagnetic actuator and included simultaneously solving time-dependent partial differential equations of the electromagnetic actuator’s magnetic, electrical, and mechanical subsystems. The magnetic subsystem was analyzed by the finite element method (FEM) using the ANSYS Electronics software package. The three prototype models with different lower core angles were produced and tested in the accredited Laboratory Center of KONČAR Electrical Engineering Institute. The obtained measurements are compared with the analytical results and numerical simulation results.

Background

The World Health Organization (WHO) lists human leishmaniasis as a neglected tropical disease; it is not under surveillance at European level.

Aim

We present surveillance data for visceral (VL) and cutaneous (CL) leishmaniasis for the period 2004 to 2018 in Greece to assess their public health importance.

Methods

We extracted data from the mandatory notification system to analyse separately imported and domestic cases of VL and CL. A case was defined by clinical manifestations compatible with VL or CL and laboratory confirmation.

Results

Between 2004 and 2018, 881 VL (862 domestic, 19 imported) and 58 CL cases (24 domestic, 34 imported) were recorded. The mean annual notification rate of domestic VL was 0.5 per 100,000 (range: 0.12–1.43/100,000) with a statistically significant increasing trend (p = 0.013). Cases were reported by all regions. The highest notification rate occurred in the age group 0–4 years (1.3/100,000). Overall 24% (164/680) of the cases were immunocompromised and their proportion increased after 2010 (p < 0.001). The mean annual notification rate of domestic CL was 0.05 per 100,000 (range: 0.01–0.19/100,000) with the highest rate in the age group 5–14 years (0.03/100,000). Cases were recorded in six of the 13 regions. Among 34 imported CL cases, 29 were foreign nationals.

Conclusion

VL is endemic in Greece, with an increasing trend and a considerable burden of severe disease and young children being most affected. CL is rarely reported. A sustainable action plan is needed to reduce the burden of VL and prevent local transmission of CL.
The silent epidemic of lymphogranuloma venereum inside the COVID-19 pandemic in Madrid, Spain, March 2020 to February 2021

Despite social distancing measures implemented in Madrid to prevent the propagation of SARS-CoV-2, a significant increase (57.1%; 28.5 to 38.5 cases/month) in cases of lymphogranuloma venereum was detected during the COVID-19 pandemic. This unusual scenario might have accelerated a shift in Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) epidemiology towards a higher proportion of L genotypes compared with non-L genotypes in CT-positive samples. Our data underscore the importance of surveillance of sexually transmitted infections during the pandemic, in particular among vulnerable populations.
