Authors: Sevastyanov Rodion
Published: March 2022

Objectives: The purpose of the article is to analyze the current current indicator of export-import activity of Ukraine's economy in the context of interaction with European countries.
Research Design & Methods: The research methods used in the study are as follows: analysis and study of literature, scientific description, Internet research, observation, statistical and structural , table presentation of data.
Findings:  The results of the reserach prove that the economical interaction between  Ukrainе an EU  has  economic potential for growth. Statistical trends of growth of indicators of export-import activity in the context of global value chains (GVC) are revealed. The tendency of growth of intensity of economic relations between Ukraine and the EU countries is established. Examples of integration of Ukrainian enterprises into global value chains are given. Statistical analysis showed that export products (mainly agricultural and industrial products) from Ukraine generated 42.1% of total international sales in Eastern Europe in 2020. It was also investigated that more than 70% of Ukrainian IT exports are software development services that are outsourced to third parties.
Implications/Recommendations: Recommendations for Ukraine's integration into global business services can include developing services in context of GVC, developing international cooperation between enterprises on global business platforms. The basis for successful integration into GVC must be the development of innovative ecosystems of industrial high technologies. It is important to develop innovative industrial high-tech ecosystems for successful integration into GVC.
Contribution/Value  Added: The author tries to formulate modern directions of development for further integration of the Ukrainian economy into global value chains in the context of cooperation with EU countries.

In India, the incidence of dengue fever (DF) and dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) have risen dramatically in the last two decades. In Rajasthan dengue cases are tremendously increasing year after year. In our study on the basis of climatic conditions some arid (Jaisalmer, Barmer, Bikaner) and semi-arid (Jodhpur, Ganganagar, Hanumangarh) region districts of Region districts of rajasthan were selected. Retrospective data of the past 5 years from 2015 to 2019 were collected. Data collection was done with the help of various Chief Medical and Health Office of the concern district and also with the help of National vector borne disease control programme (NVBDCP). In this study, we obtained total 5142 dengue cases from selected arid and semi-arid regions of Rajasthan. Maximum dengue cases were found in Jaisalmer and Jodhpur in arid and semi-arid region, respectively. Minimum dengue incidence was analysed in Bikaner and Hanumangarh in arid and semi-arid regions, respectively.
“Povos e comunidades tradicionais de matriz africana” no combate ao “racismo religioso”: a presença afro-religiosa na Política Nacional de Promoção da Igualdade Racial
Authors: Morais Mariana Ramos de
Published: March 2022

Resumo Neste artigo, analiso a presença afro-religiosa na Política Nacional de Promoção da Igualdade Racial, entre 2003 e 2018. Busco, assim, pensar sobre como as religiões afro-brasileiras, que surgiram entre os negros e que na atualidade estão abertas a todos, são mobilizadas no discurso de combate ao racismo. Para tanto, baseio-me em documentos produzidos pelo governo federal, na bibliografia a respeito do tema proposto e na minha experiência de campo junto ao movimento afro-religioso. Ao marcarem presença no debate racial, os afro-religiosos criaram a categoria “povos e comunidades tradicionais de matriz africana” e se organizam em uma outra frente para se defenderem dos ataques advindos de grupos evangélicos, classificados, nesse contexto, como “racismo religioso”.

Authors: Serrão Rodrigo
Published: March 2022

Resumo: Os brasileiros têm migrado para os Estados Unidos e estabelecido suas próprias congregações religiosas desde a década de 1980. No entanto, hoje, essas instituições religiosas não atendem apenas aos imigrantes da primeira geração. Usando a Teoria da Escolha Racional e dados extraídos de um estudo etnográfico de cinco meses em uma igreja evangélica e um centro espírita em uma cidade do sudeste dos Estados Unidos, examino como congregações religiosas brasileiras estão passando da primeira para a segunda geração, bem como para uma população não brasileira. Duas variáveis importantes nesses processos são analisadas comparativamente: o idioma e a interação cultural.

Published: March 2022

ABSTRACT The high concentration of salts in water sources in the semi-arid region of the Brazilian Northeast stands out as one of the limiting factors for the expansion of irrigated cultivation of fruit crops. Thus, the search for a strategy capable of mitigating the effect of saline stress on plants is of paramount importance. In this context, the objective of this study was to evaluate the gas exchange and yield of yellow passion fruit cultivated under brackish water irrigation strategies and potassium fertilization in two production cycles. The experiment was conducted under field conditions, using the randomized block design in a 6 × 2 factorial scheme, corresponding to six strategies of irrigation with brackish water applied in the different phenological stages of the crop: WS - without stress, irrigation with low-salinity water throughout the crop cycle; irrigation with high-salinity water only in the vegetative stage - VE; flowering stage - FL; fruiting stage - FR; and successively in the vegetative and flowering stages - VE/FL; and vegetative and fruiting stages - VE/FR, and two potassium doses (60 and 100% of the recommendation), with four replicates and three plants per plot. In irrigation, water with high (4.0 dS m-1) or low (1.3 dS m-1) electrical conductivity was used. The potassium dose of 100% recommendation corresponded to 345 g of K2O per plant per year. The yellow passion fruit ‘BRS GA1’ was more sensitive to salt stress applied successively in the vegetative and flowering stages and vegetative and fruiting stages, showing reductions in the intercellular CO2 concentration, CO2 assimilation rate, instantaneous water use efficiency, number of fruits, and yield. Irrigation with water of 4.0 dS m-1 in the fruiting stage is a promising strategy, as it does not compromise production. The dose of potassium equivalent to 60% was better than 100% of recommendation in terms of gas exchange and yield.

Abstract: Introduction: The implementation of innovative pedagogical strategies in medical training is the discipline of this experience report. It aims to present the systematization of Therapeutic Itineraries (TI) and the production of Singular Therapeutic Projects (STP) for users of the Brazilian Unified Health System as a learning tool for the teaching of Public Health. Experience report: created based on the experience of teachers and monitors involved with this training in the undergraduate Medical School of Universidade Federal de Santa Maria, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, between the years 2017 and 2019. The TIs were initially considered from a perspective restricted to the description and analysis of the organization of the health care network (HCN), the access and flows in the services. Based on the debates, contents and production of the STPs, the TIs were revisited in order to contribute to students’ understanding of the relationship between the broader social structure and the individuality of people, their needs and the health care processes. Discussion: The experience, as proposed in its formulation, allowed the articulation of theoretical and practical fields and was a tool that articulated the different programmatic contents proposed in the Discipline of Public Health II. It has also become a viable pedagogical strategy in the real circumstances of offering the discipline, in a context in which Public Health can be more present in professional training. Conclusion: The action-reflection-action process allowed, at first, to recognize the Health Care Network, a structural component of the system. Based on the construction of the STP and the debate on the lines of comprehensive care, it was possible to qualify the analysis. The systematization of TI is a theoretical-methodological approach consolidated in health research and was a tool that showed to be effective for the teaching of Public Health and for learning about the practices and reconfiguration of the work of teachers and monitors on the discipline and, therefore, a permanent education strategy for both students and those responsible for their training.

RESUMO O campus da Universidade Federal de São Carlos do município de Sorocaba é composto por um remanescente florestal caracterizado por vegetação de mata estacional semidecidual e cerrado. Foram encontradas 96 espécies de briófitas na área: 56 musgos (sendo Fissidentaceae a família mais rica, com 11 spp.) e 40 hepáticas (sendo Lejeuneaceae a mais representativa, com 21 spp.). Oito espécies são endêmicas do Brasil e duas foram citadas pela primeira vez no Estado de São Paulo (Fissidens allionii Broth. e Lejeunea subsessilis Spruce). O predomínio de espécies corticícolas e da forma de vida em tapete indicam a forte relação com as condições microclimáticas do ambiente, assim como a disponibilidade de substrato. A presença simultânea de espécies da Mata Atlântica e do Cerrado indica uma área de transição, ao mesmo tempo que espécies de ampla distribuição, subcosmopolitas e ruderais expressam o caráter secundário do remanescente florestal.

Published: March 2022

RESUMO Este artigo busca destacar alguns elementos para o entendimento dos contemporâneos processos de inclusão educacional indígena por meio da análise do encontro entre perspectivas institucionais e perspectivas de estudantes universitários Guarani. Tal reflexão é fruto de um trabalho etnográfico com documentos oficiais, particularmente aqueles mobilizados na realização do Vestibular dos Povos Indígenas no Paraná, e vivências guarani na Universidade Estadual de Maringá, entre os anos de 2014 e 2016. O argumento central explora o contraste entre formas de reconhecimento e de identificação que se relacionam, sem apagar suas especificidades. Ao mesmo tempo em que se persegue a comparação entre lógicas estatais de reificação e a multiplicidade guarani, o texto revela pontos de contato através dos quais são efetuadas alianças parciais, buscadas por ambas as partes, que se apresentam como perspectivas que dialogam, conflitam e operam modos de conhecer irredutivelmente diferentes.

Published: March 2022

RESUMO Relata-se pesquisa com professores sobre os sentidos de trabalho pedagógico na escola. Como técnicas de produção de dados, aconteceram entrevistas e pesquisa bibliográfica. Toda a pesquisa teve como fundamento teórico-metodológico a análise de movimentos de sentidos, que consiste no estudo aprofundado e comparativo dos discursos, visando a esclarecer os sentidos, os quais constituem as categorias analíticas. Na medida em que se aborda a pesquisa, também se descreve e indica como proceder na análise dos movimentos de sentidos na pesquisa em educação. A análise possibilitou, além do aprofundamento das categorias, compreender que os professores, sujeitos sociais, cuja historicidade e trabalho pedagógico produzem-se cotidiana e coletivamente, no ambiente, específico e dinâmico da escola, em seus discursos, denotam obnubilamento da compreensão de si e do seu trabalho, por não terem mais o tempo e o espaço para discursivá-lo.
Evaluation of the reliability of optimized reinforced concrete beams
Authors: Correia Rubens Silva , Bono Giuliana Furtado Franca , Paliga Charlei Marcelo
Published: March 2022

ABSTRACT In the present research, the reliability of optimized reinforced concrete beams was evaluated in different design situations. Simply supported beams were optimized to find the dimensions and reinforcements of the cross-section that minimize costs, meeting the criteria of technical codes, through genetic algorithms. For each optimized beam, the reliability index was obtained in relation to the ultimate limit state of flexure with the iHLRF algorithm, considering the uncertainties of the resistance and load models, loads and resistances. It wa s verified that the reliability indexes, in general, were higher than the minimum value of 3.8, recommended by technical codes, in design situations with little live load. Through a parametric study, trends were identified for the reliability index according to the design parameters and characteristics of the beams.
The fracture failure of three-dimensional concrete structures subjected to concentrated loadings using the Boundary Element Method
Authors: Rocha Matheus , Leonel Edson Denner
Published: March 2022

Abstract This study applies the Boundary Element Method (BEM) for the fracture failure modelling of three-dimensional concrete structures subjected to concentrated boundary conditions. The non-requirement of domain mesh by the BEM enables high accuracy in the domain fields assessment in addition to less complex remeshing procedures during crack propagation. However, concentrated boundary conditions often occur in fracture mechanics. The Lagrangian version of the BEM enforces such boundary conditions approximately by small length elements, which lead to numerical instabilities or even inaccurate problem representation. This study proposes a formulation for representing properly concentrated boundary conditions within the Lagrangian BEM framework. Nonlinear fracture mechanics describes the material failure processes herein. The classical cohesive crack approach governs the nonlinear energy dissipation processes, in which constant and tangent operators solve the resulting nonlinear system. Three applications demonstrate the accuracy of the proposed formulation, in which the BEM responses are compared against numerical and experimental results available in the literature.
Relating cone penetration resistance to sand state using the material point method
Authors: Martinelli M. , Pisanò F.
Published: March 2022

Cone penetration tests (CPTs) can quantitatively inform about the mechanical state of a sand. However, relating measured cone resistance values to sand state requires complex back-analysis of the processes occurring in the soil during the test. This paper provides new evidence of the value added in this area by modern large-deformation modelling based on the material point method (MPM). It is shown that accurate simulation of the relationship between cone resistance and sand state can be achieved, on condition that the constitutive behaviour of the soil – and especially its critical state features – is adequately modelled over a wide range of confining pressures. This study relies on the predictive capabilities of the critical state NorSand model, and shows how previous calibrations endeavours from the literature (based on triaxial test results) can support the MPM simulation of unrelated CPT results obtained through calibration chamber tests. MPM CPT simulations of ever-increasing quality will positively impact the state of the art of CPT interpretation procedures, to date still largely based on simplified cavity expansion theories.
The Protection of Personal Information Act 4 of 2013 in the Context of Health Research: Enabler of Privacy Rights or Roadblock?
Authors: Swales Lee
Published: March 2022

Data is an exceptionally valuable asset – it is a fundamental part of the information age and is widely regarded as the world's most valuable resource. A key issue that has caused some debate in South Africa in recent times relates to the Protection of Personal Information Act 4 of 2013 (POPIA), and whether the Act requires broad or specific consent in the context of health research. The primary purpose of this article will be to answer the following question: does POPIA require broad or specific consent from persons who take part in health research? In a health research context, POPIA must be considered together with, inter alia, the National Health Act 61 of 2003 (NHA), and the Health Professions Act 56 of 1974 (HPA). As a point of departure, in terms of the NHA, health research requires the informed consent of participants. Informed consent has been a part of South African law for almost one hundred years, and gives effect to an individual's dignity and autonomy. The NHA does not directly distinguish between types of consent, but the Department of Health's second edition of Ethics in Health Research: Principles, Processes and Structures (the DoH Ethical Guidelines) does. The practice of broad consent is not only endorsed by the DoH Ethical Guidelines but encouraged. However, unlike the medical-legal framework, POPIA – which should be referred to as the privacy framework, or "privacy layer" in relation to data compliance in health research – requires consent to be specific as well as informed. If one considers the applicable sections of POPIA, and South Africa's interpretive tools and jurisprudence, it is apparent that consent in health research should as a matter of best practice be specific.
Uncertainty About the Condonation of Formally Non-Compliant Wills, and the Rectification of Cross-Signed Mirror Wills: Is an Act-Based Model the Solution?
Authors: Faber James
Published: March 2022

A recent contribution proposed a processual act-based approach to conceptualising wills in South African law. This approach regards a will as the product of a will-making process in which various parties perform specific acts with specific associated forms of intention in order to establish a will. The act-based model also paves the way for the introduction of an intent doctrine in South African law. This article tests the functioning of the proposed act-based model by applying it to two scenarios: the condonation of formally non-compliant wills in terms of section 2(3) of the Wills Act and the rectification of cross-signed mirror wills in terms of the common law. Both scenarios continue to be plagued by uncertainty as a direct consequence of the lack of a proper definition, explanation and contextualisation of testator's intention in South African law. Regarding condonation, it is found that, because the courts are often left guessing or speculating as to testator's intention, they inevitably overemphasise other aspects such as the form of the document to establish intention for the purposes of condonation in terms of section 2(3). An act-based model could ensure that the decision to condone or not to condone relies solely on whether the document embodies the act of testation. If the act of testation is found to be present (no matter in which shape or form, or by whom it was drafted), the document embodying such an act should be condoned. In terms of rectification, in turn, the act-based model highlights the important distinction between content and formality – the act of testation as opposed to compliance with the statutory formality requirements through the execution of a will. It appears that rectification is appropriate only where an error has caused a discrepancy between the testator's true intention and the intention as expressed in the act of testation contained in the will. Rectification seems less appropriate when dealing with cross-signed wills, which are the result of a flawed execution process. Instead, condonation is much better suited for correcting the formal non-compliance of cross-signed wills.

Published: March 2022

Oral diseases are preventable causes of poor health outcomes in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Investigate the association between dental and periodontal conditions with kidney function and determine whether inflammation mediate the association between periodontitis and CKD. Cross-sectional analysis of 1551 South African adults of mixed ancestry. CKD was classified as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60mL/min/1.73m2. Oral profile was captured by decayed, missing, filled teeth index (DMFTi), bleeding on probing (BOP), pocket depth (PD), clinical attachment loss (CAL), and periodontitis classified as PD ≥4 mm.Overall, 6% had CKD, with 93% and 66% of participants with and without CKD, respectively having a high DMFTi (p<0.0001). Further, 84% (CKD) and 43% (without CKD) were edentulous (p<0.0001). A great proportion of the dentate sub-sample (n=846) had periodontitis, however, BOP, PD ≥4mm and CAL ≥4mm were similar between the groups. DMFTi was associated with eGFR and prevalent CKD (p<0.023), with this association driven by the Missing component. Periodontitis was not associated with eGFR nor CKD (p>0.282). In routine care of people with CKD, attention should be given to oral health.
An evidence-based guide to occlusion and articulation. Part 1: Occlusal terminology and a guide to jaw movement.
Authors: Owen CP
Published: March 2022

Although this is essentially a review, it has not been written in the passive, third-person style normally associated with scientific writing, as it is intended to be thought-provoking and, hopefully, educational. It has therefore been written in more of a conversational style, and is aimed at students, dentists and dental technicians who are receptive to a slightly different view of occlusion and articulation, based on evidence. Occlusion is a topic that has become a kind of archaic minefield of conflicting ideas, propositions, and above all, solutions, most of which are based on a complete lack of understanding of the evolution and development of teeth, and by extension, of clinically objective evidence. That in itself is a statement of conflict (and perhaps even heretical), but it is by way of warning that this guide is not going to be much like anything you will find in standard text-books of dentistry or dental technology. It is, rather, an attempt to help you navigate through what you will read elsewhere, in the hope that eventually you will find an understanding that you can live with. It will appear as a sequential series in 7 Parts.

Longitudinal Analysis of Head Coach Occupational Turnover of Women’s NCAA D-I Teams
Authors: Nicole LaVoi  , Hannah Silva-Breen
Published: March 2022

The goal of the current study was to add to existing literature pertaining to occupational turnover of sport coaches through examination of longitudinal data of head coaches of women’s teams in select NCAA Division-I conferences. The current study is the first of its kind, providing longitudinal data to help prove or dispel common narratives about women coaches and illuminate patterns of gender and discrimination. The average rate of head coach turnover of NCAA Division I FBS women’s sport teams is lower than the average rate of employee turnover in the United States. Although encouraging for the entire coaching profession, discriminatory turnover patterns appear to be prevalent. Men in this sample were twice as likely as women to be coaching, regardless of the institutional reason for their departure. When men are fired, they have a greater likelihood to be rehired, especially at the same level and in the same role. Men are also afforded twice the opportunity, as they can in turn coach men, coed, or women, while women are relegated to coaching women or coed teams. Athletic departments and policy makers should use these insights to improve their coach hiring and retention practices

Introduction: The HBV virus has its enveloped protein that surrounds nucleic acid for its protection. Hepatitis B DNA virus belongs to the Hepadnoviridae family and is similar to retroviruses. Globally, HBV infected people approximately 2 billion in the world, about 350 million people were chronic carriers. One million deaths are caused by the HBV virus every year. Each year, 400,000 new cases were reported in Latin America. Among all over the World, Pakistan was considered as one of the largest chronic viral hepatitis infection countries. Methodology: 975 samples were recoded from different districts of south Punjab. The sera of the patient’s sample were examined to analyze the LFTs, HBS serology, HBS ELIZA, anti-HBeAg, AFP, anti- HDV, HBC IgM, and HBV DNA EAL TIME PCR. An anticoagulant sample was used to analyze their prothrombin time, HB level, WBC count, PLT counts, and HBA1C. Data were analyzed by using Microsoft Excel 2019 and SPSS version 14.0. Results: 975 samples were collected from the Multan district of Punjab. Out of which 638(65.43%) patients were detected positive for HBsAg serology, 312(32.84%) were not detected. The HBA1C test values are higher in HBV patients and its normal value is below 6.4%. In 1st group 258 patients out of 638 are HBV PCR DETECTED, bilirubin 2.1+-5.7, ALP 425.1±575.1, AST 119.6±102.6, ALT 62.0±41.6, and albumin 3.5±0.9. in the 2nd group, 149 patients out of 638 are HBV PCR detected, bilirubin 1.4±1.9, ALP 488.1±339.2, AST 143.0±117.4, ALT 78.1±53.4, and albumin 4.4±0.6. Conclusion: The prevalence of HBV in diabetic patients is higher as compared to control diabetic patients. the patients with high serum AFP levels tend to be HBs-Ag-positive, and those who have low AFP levels are associated with cryptogenic cirrhosis. The positive HBc IgM is higher in anti-HDV-negative cases as compared to HDV-positive cases. The value of HBV DNA was higher in anti-HDV-negative cases. The HBsAg correlates with HBV DNA level and it’s a level higher in the IT phase and lowers in the IC phase.

El sistema de libre designación como figura de provisión de puestos de trabajo: Límites jurisprudenciales y autolimitaciones administrativas en la Administración General del Estado
Authors: Gil Celedonio José Antonio
Published: March 2022

La libre designación es un método para la provisión de puestos de trabajo entre funcionarios de carrera de todas las administraciones públicas en España. Su elemento discrecional ha hecho que se hayan configurado jurisprudencialmente una serie de requisitos y límites para garantizar la validez del uso del mecanismo. A su vez, la legislación permite que el órgano convocante introduzca elementos que moderen la discrecionalidad del procedimiento. Se analizan algunos ejemplos en el ámbito de la Administración General del Estado.
El robot como contribuyente. Reflexión sobre la personalidad jurídica digital
Authors: Díaz Calvarro Julia María
Published: March 2022

El desarrollo de la técnica, la robotización y la inteligencia artificial, y los nuevos modelos de negocio derivados de las tecnologías emergentes, cuestionan los conceptos clásicos tributarios, tales como el establecimiento permanente y la residencia fiscal, así como la configuración de los sistemas tributarios de nuestro entorno.

Uno de los aspectos más preocupantes es el impacto negativo de la robotización sobre el empleo que, a su vez, tiene consecuencias indeseadas sobre la recaudación tributaria. Ante este escenario se plantean distintas posibilidades que van desde establecer deducciones fiscales en distintos tributos, la creación de un impuesto sobre robots o su consideración como contribuyentes.

En este artículo se desarrollará un análisis sobre la posibilidad de que los robots posean personalidad jurídica propia, así como los argumentos a favor y en contra para, a continuación, el estudio en el ámbito tributario de la posibilidad de gravar a los robots y su actuación como contribuyentes.

Authors: Tang Yu , Niccolo Cerasoni Jacopo , Yuko Hallett Emily
Published: March 2022

Photogrammetry is a method of calculating the three-dimensional shape of an object from a set of images. The advantages of Photogrammetry include the ability to record the shape of an object in a short time and with high accuracy without contact. In addition, the generated model can be displayed without textures. Here, the High Resolution Photogrammetry method is presented, which describes the use of photogrammetric techniques to take pictures and generate models. This method aims to give a comprehensive and extensive description for the development of high resolution 3D models, merging the well known techniques used in academic and computer graphic fields, allowing anyone to independently produce high resolution and quantifiable models for any need.

Genotype-environment interaction and guata potato yield (Solanum tuberosum L.) in the Department of Nariño (Colombia)
Authors: Santacruz-Benavides Astrid Viviana , Delgado-Gualmatán Wilmer Libey , Lagos-Burbano Tulio César , Duarte-Alvarado David-Esteban
Published: March 2022

Estimating the genotype-environment interaction (GEI) for potato genotype yield is very useful for the identification of outstanding genetic material that can adapt to specific environmental conditions and shows productive potential for breeding programs, selection processes and cultivar recommendations because it improves the efficiency of the genetic improvement process. The objective of this study was to determine the GEI of yield, expressed as t ha-1, in 21 potato genotypes. Four municipalities in the Department of Nariño were considered: Tangua, Pupiales, Imues, and Pasto. A randomized complete block design and an additive main effects and multiplicative interaction model (AMMI model) were used. Highly significant differences between the environments were found across the genotypes and GEI. Of the total variation, 42.43% was explained by the environment, 13.84% by the genotypes, and 15.49% by the GEI. The genotypes that showed stable behaviors were UdenarStGua55, UdenarStGua78, UdenarStGua24, UdenarStGua61, UdenarStGua20, and UdenarStGua98. Genotypes UdenarStGua78 and UdenarStGua98 stood out with 53.49 and 48.42 t ha-1 . Furthermore, genotypes UdenarStGua93, UdenarStGua97, and UdenarStGua91 showed a positive interaction with the environments of Tangua and Pupiales. Similarly, genotypes UdenarStGua58, UdenarStGua83, UdenarStGua57, and UdenarStGua87 positively interacted with Pasto, while genotypes UdenarStGua78 and UdenarStGua98 showed positive interactions with Imues. The genotypes displayed different behaviors in response to the areas where they were established, which varied in altitude, soil type, and environmental conditions.
Physiological and morphological features denote that salt stress in Stevia rebaudiana is based on nonstomatic instead of stomatic limitation
Authors: Castillejo-Morales Angela , Jarma-Orozco Alfredo , Pompelli Marcelo F.
Published: March 2022

Stevia rebaudiana is a very widespread plant throughout the world, due to the production of diterpenic steviol glycosides, with high sweetening power, being up to 300 times sweeter than sugar at a concentration of 0.4% (w/v). In the Colombian Caribbean, research has focused on evaluating the adaptation and management of commercial genotypes and experimental lines, however, their behavior against soil salinization is unknown. The objective of this research was to evaluate the response of some physiological and morphological characteristics of two promising genotypes against salt stress. The relationship between gas exchange, chlorophyll a fluorescence, and growth parameters was modulated as a function of the NaCl concentration. Although stomatal conductance and perspiration did not show a response to salt levels, the reduction in net photosynthesis as salinity increased was not associated with stomatal effects, but rather with a drop in the rate of electron transport, which articulates the absorption of light energy and its conversion into photoassimilates. Therefore, it could be inferred that salinity-stressed S. rebaudiana plants are more sensitive to non-stomatal limitation than to stomatal limitation.
Electric Vehicle Modeling and Simulation of Volkswagen Crafter with 2.0 TDI CR Diesel Engine
Authors: Babangida Aminu , Szemes Péter Tamás
Published: March 2022

The Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) used by conventional vehicles is one of the major causes of environmental global warming and air pollutions. However, the emission of toxic gases is harmful to the living. Electric propulsion has been developed in modern electric vehicles to replace the ICE.
The research is aimed at using both Simulink and SIMSCAPE toolboxes in a MATLAB to model the vehicle. This research proposes a Volkswagen (VW) crafter with a 2.0 diesel TDI CR engine, manufactured in 2020. An electric power train, a rear-wheel driven, based on Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) was designed to replace the front-wheel driven, diesel engine of the VW conventional vehicle.
In this research, a Nissan leaf battery of a nominal voltage of 360 V, 24 kWh capacity was modeled to serve as the energy source of the overall system. A New European Drive Cycle (NEDC) was used in this research. Another test input such as a ramp was also used to test the vehicle under different road conditions. However, a Proportional Integral (PI) controller was developed to control both the speed of the vehicle and that of the synchronous motor. Different drive cycles were used to test the vehicle. The vehicle demonstrated good tracking capability with each type of test. In addition, this research found out that there is approximately about 19% more benefit in terms of fuel economy of electric vehicles than the conventional vehicles.
Histochemical identification of mast cells in the pia mater of the rat

Published: March 2022

AIM: Identification of mast cells depends to great extent on the choice of the stain and the fixative, the type of mast cells and the tissue under study, and animal species. Based on this, this work aimed to find an optimal technique of histochemical revealing mast cells in the rat pia mater by testing three stains.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study was performed on the brain of Wistar rats 5, 14, and 30 day-old (n=15). 67 m thick brain sections were Nissl stained with cresyl violet, toluidine blue, or methylene green and examined in Leica DM750 light microscope (Germany).
RESULTS: Mast cells were found in pia mater of rats of all ages studied after staining with each of used stains. They could be determined by their metachromatic staining. Use of cresyl violet or toluidine blue resulted in intensive staining of all cellular elements of the nervous tissue, but mastocytes were metachromatically weakly stained on this background and in some cases could not be differentiated from the surrounding tissue. After usage of methylene green, the brain section staining was paler, but metachromasia of bright stained mast cells was more contrast and could distinctly be registered by digital photography.
CONCLUSIONS: Metachromatic staining with methylene green is optimal for study of mast cells in the pia mater of the rat. It provides easy revealing of pial mastocytes and studying their morphologic features and is useful for morphometric analysis of mastocytes.
