The franciscana dolphin (Pontoporia blainvillei) is one of the smallest dolphins globally and the most threatened in the Southwest Atlantic Ocean. Beach monitoring helps to investigate cetacean strandings within their distributions and assess impacts that cause mortality. Using drifters in mark-recapture studies helps to estimate recovery rates when carcasses are unavailable. The study aims to estimate the non-recovery rate of franciscana carcasses from FMA Ia by comparing the spatial distribution between carcasses and drifters along the coast; correlating the influence of cold fronts with the recovery rate of drifters; estimating the non-recovery rate of carcasses according to the drifters’ results and the meteorological profile in the pre-stranding period; characterizing the death diagnostic with temporal distribution of franciscanas by considering the stranding index and the carcass non-recovery rates. We repeated the release of 54 drifters in two campaigns close to the coast within the range of franciscana dolphins, where beaches are monitored daily, in the north region of Espírito Santo state, Brazil. The carcass stranding hotspots (21%) and drifters (18%) were 10 km apart. Cold fronts significantly increase the number of strandings. Considering the incidence of cold fronts in the pre-stranding period and linear regression from drifters, the median carcass recovery rate is 0.26, 95% IC [0.22 - 0.29], which means that for each stranding, the carcass non-recovery rate varies from 0.78 to 0.71. The range between 265 to 350 estimates the total of carcasses from 77 strandings observed from 2003 to 2021. The record year of strandings was 2014 (n = 14). About 52% of records occurred in summer, and January is the month with the highest occurrence of strandings. Of the conclusive diagnoses (n = 43), around 77% (n = 33) were attributed to incidental capture in gillnets. Estimating the number of carcasses based on stranding records is essential for population viability analyses and conservation purposes, especially considering small and isolated populations as in the present study. To prevent local extinction, a solution to avoid incidental capture, especially along summers, must be addressed quickly.
Utilizing OER-OEP to Support a Resilient Sustainable Education
Authors: Halder Debolina
Published: November 2022

Covid-19 pandemic has caused unprecedented disruption to education systems worldwide, leading to a paradigm shift to technology enabled learning (TEL) from face-to-face (f2f) interactions. TEL ensured teaching-learning continuity and prevent learning losses without f2f interventions. The pandemic became an opportunity for expansion in creation and use of Open Educational Resources (OER) and marked the beginning of a shift towards Open Educational Practices (OEP). These developments, amidst disruptions created possibilities to harness both OER and OEP to mitigate short term learning loss during Covid-19 and to build education systems that are capable of overcoming adversity and are resilient to future crises and disruptions. This paper explores the theoretical and empirical literature to outline how OER and OEP support open pedagogy as an educational response to Covid-19. It presents a generic OER-OEP framework based on an open pedagogy continuum which includes ‘Enhance’, ‘Extend’ and ‘Empower’. It identifies the barriers faced in respect of OER adoption and OEP engagement, and the perceived impact of OER on teaching practices. Based on this framework and on identified barriers, a set of guidelines for the effective use of OER and OEP for teaching and learning is presented. The findings figured out the importance of OER adoption, especially in times of crises, and an increased engagement with OEP for sustainable learning opportunities, contributing to open education development post pandemic. The study recommends building more focus on scaffolding for faculty and students in the implementation of open pedagogy, as well as more institutional support for better learning experiences and outcomes.

The emerging public health issues of 21st century have clearly warned us that the efficient tackling of these threats need to be done in collaborative manner between relevant public health professionals under the umbrella of One Health. The concept of One Health is longstanding; however, it is gaining due momentum across the globe, especially in context of tackling emerging zoonoses. India remains vulnerable to many of emerging health threats due to demographic, socio-economic and other factors related with globalization, climate change and related biodiversity losses. In India, the various public health agencies which includes human, animal and environmental health professionals have contributed joint efforts in recent past to confront the One Health related issues. However, the bridging of professional silos to act more synergistically need further sustained efforts from all the stakeholders, including policy makers.
Animals, environment and sustainability: Global warming reducing and inducing attributes of the farm animals
Authors: SINGH VIR , RASTOGI AKANKSHA
Published: November 2022

Animals, environment and sustainability are related with each other. The intricate soil-plant-animal relationship is vital for the very ecological integrity of the biosphere. Animal diversity, both inter- and intra-species, has multiple socio-economic attributes. In an agroecosystem with uncultivated land, cultivated land, livestock and households as the integral components, livestock play crucial role in transferring nutrients from ecologically more sustainable ecosystem (forest/ rangeland/ grassland) to ecologically vulnerable one (cultivated land), and in the recycling of nutrients in the cultivated lands. Draught animal power (DAP) is a key source for realizing sustainability in traditional agricultural systems which is ensured by their role in enhancing ecological processesâ€”cropping diversification, agro-biodiversity maintenance, and soil fertility management. Farm animals also play negative role leading to environmental degradation through overgrazing and carbon emissions. Grazing animals significantly affect an ecosystem in triple ways, viz. herbivory, physical effects, and deposition. Overgrazing alters community structure as well as ecosystem functioning, including primary productivity and it has triggering effects on an ecosystem. Farm animals are key agents as well as sufferers of the on-going climate change. Their role in land degradation, water pollution, biodiversity erosion and release of GHGs contributes to exacerbate global warming.

The percentage of sires superior to the population mean was 63.24, 58.82, and 60.29% using LS, BLUP, and DFREML method respectively for AFC trait. The corresponding figure in percentage applying LS, BLUP and DFREML methods were 51.47, 58.82 and 39.71% for FCI; 60.29, 47.06 and 47.06% for FLMY; 54.41, 64.71 and 42.65% for FLP; 51.47, 80.88 and 44.12% for WFC, and 51.47, 29.40 and 44.12% for FSP trait, respectively. The LS and BLUP methods gave almost the same results. This study concluded with the results that LS and BLUP method gave the same result for evaluating the different sires considering all the traits, viz. AFC, FCI, FLMY, FLP, WFC, and FSP. The values of lower error variance and high relative efficiency suggested that the BLUP method was best for evaluating the different sires followed by LS and DFREML methods using different first lactation traits.
Genetic evaluation of growth using random regression models
Authors: VENKATARAMANAN R
Published: November 2022

The variability in growth traits provides enormous scope for improvement through selection and breeding. However, growth is a longitudinal trait measured repeatedly on the animal and random regression models (RRM) have been found to be suitable for modeling the trait as a growth curve. RRM accommodate repeated records for traits which change gradually and continually, over time, and do not require stringent assumptions about constancy of variances and correlations. RRM has the advantage that, variance components can be estimated for any point in the trajectory of the growth curve and genetic parameters could be estimated for any age class within the range of ages included in the study. RRM is suitable for group breeding schemes and field performance recording systems where the growth data will be uneven and for varying age points. Worldwide, several studies on use of the tool, RRM in growth of various livestock species are available, but literature on such studies is scanty from India. The methodology used, data requirement, assumptions, validity, software available and application of RRM in the field are discussed based on the earlier reports.

Published: November 2022

An 8-week study was piloted to establish the effect of Pleurotus ostreatus (PO) extract (Oyster mushroom) on health status and quality attributes of meat. One hundred and eighty (180) day old Cobb chicks were allotted into three treatments and orally administered extract of Pleurotus ostreatus at 0 (control), 2000 and 4000 mg/L. Haematological indices, serum metabolites, quality attributes of meat and oxidative stability of meat were determined. Oral administration of PO had no effect on haematological indices and some serum metabolites except serum albumin and calcium. Thiobarbituric acid (TBARs) in blood was lowered in 4000 mg/L group at week 4 and 8 of growth. Crude protein and water holding capacity (WHC) increased as level of oral administration of PO increased with the highest values in 2000 mg/l and 4000 mg/L groups. Glutathione Peroxidase (GSH-Px) activity in meat tissue was highest in the 4000 mg/L treatment while Thiobarbituric Acid Reactive Substances was statistically lowest and similar in the control and 4000 mg/L groups. It is concluded that Pleurotus ostreatus extract can be orally administered up to 4000 mg/L as an antioxidant in birds in order to decrease lipid peroxidation in birds and improve meat quality and oxidative stability.

Published: November 2022

Around 35% of the total caseins are Î²-caseins, which are further classified as A1 Î²-caseins and A2 Î²-caseins, based on differences in the amino acid composition of both. A2 is the wild type genetic variant of Î²-casein while A1 is the mutant. The present study aimed at the isolation of A1 and A2 casein from different cow milk sources and its characterization by using simple chemical techniques, viz. FTIR and spectrofluorimetry. The commercial milk sample from Bos indicus (Gir) (A2) was obtained from Bombay Panjrapole, Mumbai and two commercially available packaged cow milk samples (pasteurized, skimmed) namely from Gokul and Mother Dairy (A1) were also obtained for comparison analysis from the local market. The isolation of casein was performed by standard method and analyzed using SDS-PAGE, FTIR and spectrofluorimetry. There was evidence that the A2 milk lacked histidine and rich in aromatic amino acids like tryptophan using FTIR and spectrofluorimetry techniques.

Published: November 2022

The state of Delhi is fast growing in terms of urbanisation which is putting a lot of pressure on the agriculture sector of the state. The state is impacted due to fast declining area under agriculture and large urban population to meet the food requirement. In the past the policies were framed to enhance production but of late it is increase in income of the farmers that has become of prime importance. In this background the study was taken up to analyse the problems and prospects of agricultural sector of Delhi state and to suggest strategies for doubling the farmers’ income. Intensive primary survey and focus group discussions of 180 farm households were conducted for the study by using pre-tested questionnaire. A linear programming model was used for assessing the optimal crop enterprise combination. The study revealed that the reorientation of crop enterprise towards vegetables, fruits and flowers in combination with allied enterprises like apiary and dairy would enhance the farmers income up to 53% to 198% under various categories of farmers. Further, the availability of loans up to 40% of existing capital would augment the farm income to the tune of 110% to 251%.The study suggest that agriculture be declared as an enterprise which will help farmers to get benefit of government schemes. There exists huge scope for post-harvest processing and value addition of vegetables, wheat, rice, etc. The farmers need to be organised like FPO, SHGs, etc., so that their bargaining power is increased and farmers are able to realise better price for their farm products.
Dynamics of technical efficiency of sugar mills in India: Stochastic Frontier Approach
Authors: Kumar Shiv , Abdulla Abdulla
Published: November 2022

Using an annual survey industries unit level data pertaining to year 2014-15 from India, this paper examines the technical efficiency of sugar mills. A Stochastic Production Frontier (SFA) approach has been applied to measure technical efficiency of 490 sugar mills. The empirical results show that on an average sugar mills have 54% technical efficient, despite presence of considerable variations of technical efficiency among the selected states. This paper establishes a repertoire of management regimes varying in technical efficiency. It further reveals a significant difference in organization specific average technical efficiency of sugar mills across states. Overall, sugar mills are running under decreasing returns to scale. The emergent suggestion is to bring improvement in capital input use which is more effective than the labour input and augmentation in liability asset ratio. The management of less efficient mills needs to imbibe the best practices in terms of technology, policy and institutions of more efficient mills operating in other states.
O ZASTUPANJU U PRIVATNOM PRAVU
Authors: Cvetković-Đorđević Valentina V. , Vuletić Vladimir M.
Published: November 2022

Ugovor o nalogu (mandatum) nastao je u rimskom pravu. Na temelju tog ugovora uređeno je posredno zastupanje. Prve moderne građanske kodifikacije priznaju neposredno zastupanje na osnovu punomoćja, ali ga vezuju za ugovor o nalogu. Samostalna ustanova punomoćja nastaje u nemačkom pravu u drugoj polovini XIX veka pri čemu je najveću zaslugu u osamostaljivanju punomoćja od mandata imalo učenje Paula Labanda. U slučaju neposrednog zastupanja pravna dejstva preduzetih pravnih radnji neposredno nastupaju za zastupanog. S obzirom na to da prilikom preduzimanja pravne radnje zastupnik izjavljuje volju, postavlja se pitanje da li izjavljenu volju treba shvatiti kao volju zastupnika ili volju zastupanog. Savremena literatura je u neposrednom zastupanju pre sklona da vidi zamenu volje zastupanog voljom zastupnika. Takvo shvatanje prirode zastupanja u privatnom pravu ima zanimljivo poreklo koje seže u XIII vek.

Authors: Grahadi Rahmat , Fatchiyah Fatchiyah , Kurniawan Nia
Published: November 2022

Context: Malayan krait (Bungarus candidus) is a snake that is considered highly venomous snake and widely distributed across Southeast Asia. Envenomation by this snake is characterized by facial weakness, paralysis, respiratory muscle weakness, and in most cases, it renders the victim dead. Unfortunately, there is only one antivenom for neutralizing venom that is only available from the Thai Red Cross Society. Aims: To predict the epitopes from candoxin protein of B. candidus venom that could be a candidate for vaccine-based antivenom. Methods: In this study, IEDB and SYFPHEITHI databases were utilized to predict candoxin epitope sequences and determine their immunogenicity, conservancy, and population coverage. Next, the epitopes were modeled, and the binding interactions between epitopes and MHC-II were analyzed. The epitope that binds into the active site of human and murine MHC-II proceeded to the next step. Then, the allergenic properties of the chosen epitope were assessed to ensure its safety. Lastly, the physicochemical characteristics prediction and molecular dynamics simulation were conducted to verify the epitope’s stability when produced in vivo. Results: The results showed that epitope 47-CFKESWREARGTRIE-61 has the best binding interaction when compared to others. This epitope was confirmed that did not show potential allergenic properties. The physicochemical properties and molecular dynamics simulation demonstrated that this epitope was stable. Conclusions: The results of this study will be useful in developing a novel antivenom for Bungarus candidus using a vaccine-based method.

IMPLICATION OF LANGUAGE ATTITUDE TO THE LINGUISTIC COMPETENCE OF STUDENTS IN SYNCHRONOUS CLASSES
Authors: SEDANO ARIANE NEL
Published: November 2022

Verbal Communication is considered a performance of language. This means that what may have been spoken may also imply a representation of ideologies, constructed realities, and an imitation of life. Language reconnoiters the speaker’s background and points toward the holistic overview of what is seen and felt in real socio-cultural engagements. Through the performance of language, the behavior of it is observed and may imply the proficiency of the student’s fluency in the verbal ability. With this, the researcher conducted an assessment of this linguistic performance in the classroom set-up during the synchronous class to determine the existing language attitude and problematize its sociolinguistic implication of it so that certain measures may be raised to improve the current classroom language management. This is anchored on Noam’s Chomsky’s Theory on Linguistic Performance which is referred to the production and comprehension of language use. Also, the Theory on the Language Attitude by Thomas Hatherley Pear in which he mentioned that sufficient cues for the speaker’s personality are reflected in the assessed linguistic voice used in language. This study conducted is a qualitative study that involved class observation, recording, transcription, analysis, and interpretation in a college English class at the Camarines Sur Polytechnic Colleges. The findings of the study concluded that the attitude of students in English language use involves code-switching and -mixing, language fillers, literacy in technology use, language misuse, and language variety. This identified language attitude implies Linguistic Turn in Academic Conversation and Expressive Language is Linguistic Competence.

Association between Atopic Dermatitis and Major Cardiovascular Outcomes: A Two-Sample Mendelian Randomization Study
Authors: Qi Hongjiao , Wang Lifeng , Li Linfeng
Published: November 2022

Background: Atopic dermatitis (AD) has been linked to cardiovascular disease (CVD) in population-based studies, however, their causal relationship is still unclear.

Objective: To evaluate the causal association of AD with risk of cardiovascular outcomes using a Mendelian randomization (MR) approach.

Method: We extracted summary-level data for AD, stroke, heart failure, coronary artery disease (CAD), myocardial infarction, angina pectoris from published, nonoverlapping genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Inverse variance weighted (IVW) method was used as the primary analysis. Alternative methods, including weighted median, MR Egger, MR-Pleiotropy Residual Sum and Outlier, weighted mode, and leave-out analysis, were performed to examine potential pleiotropy.

Results: 13 SNPs (13,287 cases and 41,345 controls) were selected as instrumental variables (IVs). No associations of AD with risks of stroke [odds ratio (OR) = 1.03, 95%CI: 0.97-1.09, p = 0.3630], heart failure (OR = 1.04, 95%CI: 0.99-1.09, p= 0.119), coronary artery disease (OR = 1.00, 95%CI: 0.96-1.05, p= 0.988), myocardial infarction (OR = 1.00, 95%CI: 1.00-1.00, p= 0.322), and angina pectoris (OR = 1.00, 95%CI: 1.00-1.00, p= 0.369) was found. No significant effect of pleiotropy was detected.

Conclusions: This MR study does not support a causal effect of AD on stroke, heart failure, CAD, myocardial infarction, angina pectoris.
COVID-19 Knowledge in Patients with Psoriasis Receiving Systemic Therapy: A Questionnaire Study
Authors: Özçelik Sinan , Kılıç Fatma Arzu
Published: November 2022

Introduction: Little is known about how much the impact of patient-driven issues on the treatment of psoriasis in the amid of COVID-19 pandemic.

Objectives: We aimed to investigate the COVID-19 knowledge of the patients with psoriasis receiving systemic therapy in the pandemic.

Methods: The patients who received systemic treatment for psoriasis presented to our dermatology outpatient clinic were enrolled in the study. A questionnaire measuring the level of knowledge about COVID-19 and psoriasis was administered to patients. Demographics and disease characteristics of patients were recorded.

Results: A total of 183 patients with psoriasis were enrolled in the study. Of the patients, 33.9% thought that psoriasis exposes them to a risk of getting COVID-19, 30.6% declared that psoriasis treatment exposes them to a risk of getting COVID-19, and 59.6% were worried about getting COVID-19. The treatment discontinuation rate was 42.1%. The patients with high scholarity level showed more anxiety and discontinued their treatment.

Conclusions: The patients with psoriasis did not have adequate knowledge of the effect of both psoriasis itself and its treatment on COVID-19 during the pandemic. The patients on biologic therapy tend to discontinue their treatment based upon the physician's recommendation, whereas those on conventional therapy mostly on their own will. Clinicians should provide patients with not only as much information as they need but also current evidence about both psoriasis and COVID-19.

Published: November 2022

Introduction: Granuloma annulare (GA) has been reported as associated with multiple diseases, mainly diabetes mellitus (DM), thyroid diseases, and dyslipidemia. However, the high prevalence of some of these illnesses makes it difficult to assess whether the association is real or fortuitous. Our objective was to analyse the clinical features of our GA patients and the possible associations.
Methods: This is a retrospective observational study of 225 patients with biopsy-proven GA diagnosed between 2009 and 2019 in a referral university hospital in Barcelona, Spain. Clinical charts were reviewed to obtain clinical data. As a control group we used a random list of 225 patients diagnosed in the hospital's traumatology department in the same period, matched by age and sex.
Results: Diabetes was diagnosed in 40 GA patients (18%) (34 in the control group, 15%) and hypothyroidism in 33 (15%) (22 in the control group 9.8%); the differences were not significant. We also did not detect any association with uveitis, sarcoidosis,  necrobiosis lipoidica, Sweet's syndrome, HIV infection, hepatitis B, or haematological malignancies. We only detected a possible association with hepatitis C (6 GA patients, 2.7%, versus 0 controls, p = 0.03), and hypercholesterolemia  (108 GA patients, 48%, versus 79 controls, 35%, p = 0.007).
Conclusions: The possible pathogenic explanations for the association with hepatitis C and hypercholesterolemia seem unlikely. We consider that the association of GA with other diseases, including hypercholesterolemia and hepatitis C, is doubtful and that it there is no justification rule out possible associated diseases in patients with GA.
Alterations of the human gut microbiome in patients with hidradenitis suppurativa: a case-control study and review of the literature
Authors: Demirel Öğüt Neslihan , Hasçelik Gülşen , Atakan Nilgün
Published: November 2022

Background: Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a systemic inflammatory disease that extends beyond the skin. The role of gut microbiome alterations in the pathogenesis of inflammatory and autoimmune disorders is remarkable.Objective: Based on the hypothesis that dysbiosis in the gut microbiome may be a trigger for systemic inflammation in the pathogenesis of HS, the aim of this study was to investigate whether the gut microbiome is altered in HS patients comparing with healthy subjects.Methods: In present case-control study, fecal samples from 15 patients with HS and 15 age- and sex-matched healthy individuals were collected and analyzed using 16S rRNA-based metagenomic analysis. The V3 and V4-hypervariable regions of 16S rDNA gene were amplified from all samples and sequenced by the Illumina MiSeq platform. Bioinformatic analyzes were performed in QIIME2. Results: Shannon alpha diversity index showed significantly reduced diversity in HS patients (P = 0.048). Bray-Curtis Dissimilarity and Jaccard Distance revealed that the gut microbial composition of HS patients was significantly distinctive from that of controls (P = 0.01 and P = 0.007, respectively). The relative abundance of unclassified Clostridiales, unclassified Firmicutes and Fusicatenibacter in HS was significantly lower than that in controls (P = 0.005,  P = 0.029, and P = 0.046, respectively).Conclusion: This study indicated that significant alterations in gut microbiota of HS patients could play a critical role in the pathogenesis of HS and might be a trigger for systemic inflammation. Increased understanding the pathogenesis of HS will shed light on the new potential therapeutic targets and novel treatment options.

Introduction: Among the various widely recognized basal cell carcinoma (BCC) clinical patterns, linear basal cell carcinoma (LBCC) is an uncommon morphologic variant of BCC.
Objective: Describe the clinical and dermoscopic characteristics of LBCC.
Methods: Retrospective study including LBCC cases from 5 dermatology centers in North and South America. Biopsy-proven primary BCCs, that presented with at least 3:1 length:width ratio on physical examination, irrespective of tumor subtype or location, were included. Clinical and dermoscopic analysis were performed by 2 experts in dermoscopy.
Results: Eighteen cases of LBCC met our inclusion criteria and were included in the study. Median age at diagnosis was 86.0 years, 10 patients (58.8%) were males. Regarding anatomic location, 11/18 (61.1%) were located on the head and neck, 5/18 (27.7%) cases were found on the trunk, and 2 on lower extremities (11.1%). Under dermoscopy, 15/18 (83.3%) of LBCC were pigmented. All tumors displayed at least one of the BCC-specific dermoscopic criteria the most common being blue-grey globules (72.2%).
Conclusions: Dermoscopy might be useful in the differentiation of LBCC from other diagnoses presenting as linear lesions such as scars, scratches/erosions, and tattoos, among others. Some of these lesions might be confused by naked eye examination alone.
Wild Animal Protectorates
Authors: Hooley Dan ,   Center for Environmental Philosophy, The University of North Texas
Published: November 2022

This article considers the collective obligations humans have to wild animals. One proposal, put forward by Sue Donaldson and Will Kymlicka, argues that we should understand wild animals as living in sovereign communities, is argued against. A Sovereignty Model is a poor fit for the unique interests of wild animals and requires stretching this concept beyond recognition. Most crucially, however, it ignores and obscures ways that human states must work to prevent their own citizens from harming wild animals. Instead, it is argued that wild animals should be seen as living in Wild Animal Protectorates, a new political category, inspired by protected states that exist among human states. This framework for thinking about the relationship between human states and wild animals has advantages over a Sovereignty Model when it comes to issues of borders, political representation, and international protection.
