Plants Utilise Ancient Conserved Peptide Upstream Open Reading Frames as Environmental Sensors
Authors: Causier Barry , Hopes Tayah , McKay Mary , Paling Zachary , Davies Brendan
Published: October 2021

The regulation of protein synthesis plays an important role in growth
and development in all organisms. Upstream open reading frames (uORFs)
are commonly found in eukaryotic mRNA transcripts and typically
attenuate the translation of associated downstream main ORFs (mORFs).
Conserved peptide uORFs (CPuORFs) are a rare subset of uORFs, some of
which have been shown to conditionally regulate translation by ribosome
stalling. Here we identify three Arabidopsis CPuORFs of ancient origin
that regulate translation of any downstream ORF, in response to
agriculturally significant environmental signals: heat stress and water
limitation. We provide evidence that different sequence classes of
CPuORF stall ribosomes during different phases of translation and show
that plant CPuORFs act as environmental sensors that can be utilised as
inducible regulators of translation with broad application.

A Family Screening of CD19 Gene Mutation by Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism
Authors: Karaselek Mehmet Ali , Kapaklı Hasan , Guner Sukru , Keleş Sevgi , Reisli Ismail
Published: October 2021

Background: CD19 molecule found on B lymphocyte surface forms CD19
complex together with CD21, CD81, CD225 in mature B cells and regulates
B lymphocyte activation with antigen stimulation. Mutation(s) in the
gene encoding the CD19 molecule affect CD19 protein expression and
primary immunodeficiency (PID) occurs. Some genetic method, especially
sanger and next generation sequencing and flow cytometric methods are
widely used in the diagnosis of PID. The RFLP method, which is faster
and cheaper than other mutation detection methods, is rarely used in the
diagnosis of PID. The study aimed to genetically identify CD19
deficiency, which is a PID, using the RFLP method. Methods: The study
was performed at Necmettin Erbakan University, Meram Medicine Faculty
Hospital, Pediatric Allergy and Immunology clinic. A total of 8 patients
and two healthy controls could be included in the study. A total of 8
patients and two healthy controls were included in the study, and the
relevant region genotypes in the CD19 gene were determined by performing
RCR-RFLP analysis. Results: CD19 deficiency was first described by us.
The index case, newborn baby and mother were also included in the study.
It was determined that the index case (P6) was homozygous mutant, the
newborn baby (P7) and mother (P8) had heterozygous genotype. Based on
this situation, one child (P1) was found to be homozygous mutant, mother
(P2), father (P3) and other children (P4 and P5) had heterozygous
genotype in the family, which was determined to be related to the first
case. Conclusion: Rapid genetic diagnosis in patients suspected of
having a known case of PID insufficiency as a result of clinical and
laboratory findings carries a vital risk in terms of treatment options
to be offered to patients. Although PCR-RFLP, which is a cheap, safe and
fast method, is used to detect known mutations, the use of PID is rare.
In our study, it has been shown that it is a method that can be used in
the diagnosis of PID by determining genotypes using PCR-RFLP, and
especially in terms of rapid genetic testing of family screenings.

Published: November 2021

The growing trend of agricultural abandonment necessitates understanding
the development of regrowth forests on old fields in the context of
forest restoration. However, the successional patterns of ecosystem
functioning and functional diversity of afrotropical regrowth forests
are rarely examined. We assessed whether aboveground biomass (AGB) and
functional diversity (FD) vary with restoration age and proximity to
old-growth forests, compared AGB and FD between regrowth and old-growth
forests to measure restoration success and investigated the FD – AGB
relationship. We sampled trees in 63 plots (2000 m2 each) in a regrowth
forest and 5 plots in an old‐growth forest in 2011, 2014 and 2017. We
calculated AGB using diameter, height and wood density. We collated
species functional traits (dispersal modes, habitat types, fruit sizes
and regeneration guilds) and computed FD measures (richness, evenness,
dispersion, divergence and RaoQ’s entropy). AGB and FD measures
(richness, dispersion and RaoQ) increased with restoration age.
Functional divergence declined with increasing distance to the
old-growth forest. Within 22 years, regrowth forests regained 22% of
the AGB and recovered all FD measures of the old-growth forest. We found
positive, negative and quadratic relationships between AGB and FD
depending on the FD measure and forest type. We demonstrate that
regrowth forests increase ecosystem production and functional diversity
in abandoned areas, however they cannot substitute old-growth forests.
Considering multiple measures of functional diversity in different
habitats provides a better understanding of the influence of functional
diversity on ecosystem functioning.
Deep Learning in Image Quality Assessment: Past, Present, and What Lies Ahead
Authors: Amirshahi Seyed Ali
Published: October 2021

Quality assessment of images plays an important role in different applications in image processing and computer vision. While subjective quality assessment of images is the most accurate approach due to issues objective quality metrics have been the go to approach. Until recently most
such metrics have taken advantage of different handcrafted features. Similar (but with a slower speed) to other applications in image processing and computer vision, different machine learning techniques, more specifically Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have been introduced in different
tasks related to image quality assessment. In this short paper which is a supplement to a focal talk given with the same title at the London Imaging Meeting (LIM) 2021 we aim to provide a short timeline on how CNNs have been used in the field of image quality assessment so far, how the field
could take advantage of CNNs to evaluate the image quality, and what we expect will happen in the near future.

Adequate facilities and infrastructure are not yet ready so that learning cannot run smoothly. The purpose of this study was to analyze the process of learning English. This research is qualitative, descriptive research that tends to use analysis and emphasizes process and meaning more. The approach used in this study is phenomenological. Data collection methods used in this study were interviews, questionnaires, and observation. The instrument used to analyze the data is a questionnaire. The data analysis technique used is descriptive qualitative analysis. The results of this study are that four critical factors support the smooth running of the English learning process: the principal, parents of students, students, and educators. The role of the principal, especially the support of the principal in the form of providing facilities and infrastructure, is an essential factor because, without this learning, it will not be able to run smoothly. The role of parents is also essential because their assistance to students will be able to provide a learning atmosphere. Student motivation is also an essential key to the success of learning English. This research with the results wants to show that various parties pay attention to four main factors for the smooth teaching and learning activities process.
Bauhaus-skolan en modell för Konstfackskolan 1944
Authors: Wickman Kerstin
Published: October 2021

1930-talet var en brytningstid mellan modernism och traditionalism. I Sverige avgick modernismen med segern. Det ledde även till en radikal förändring av form-, konsthantverks- och designutbildningen på Tekniska skolan, som efter andra världskriget döptes om till Konstfackskolan. Gregor Paulsson, Svenska Slöjdföreningens direktör och den som drivit igenom Stockholmsuställningen och funktionalismen 1930, är också den som tillsammans med en liten grupp personer skriver det nya utbildningsprogrammet för Konstfackskolan. Idéerna hämtade han till stor del från Weimarrepublikens Bauhausskola.

Conspicuously Quotidian
Authors: Munch Anders V.
Published: October 2021

The international style of Bauhaus was intended as a promotion of a new lifestyle and way of thinking. This promotional character of modernism, however, was an issue of critique and debate among the Danish modernist designers and architects over decades. They tried to define Danish modern design as product of a national tradition of modest, user-centred objects. As the Bauhaus directors also fought against the reduction of their project to a ‘Bauhaus Style’ or a commercial fad, this was perhaps a fight on words. Beyond the ideal of modest, no nonsense object convincing users through their mute form only, promotion did, of course, had to be part of Danish modernism as well. The design had to be conspicuous in its simplicity through some kinds of presentation to sell to a broader public. Especially in the writings of the Danish architect and cultural criticist, Poul Henningsen, we find a constant negotiation of the two sides of this issue, as he made rather advanced explanations and advertisements for his famous lamp system, the PH-lamp.
The Physical Aura of Person during Life and after Death in Physics with Real Magnetic Charges
Authors: Sizov Robert A.
Published: November 2021

The discovery and study of real magnetic charges, as well as true anti-electrons in the structures of substance and their inclusion in basic physical concepts, allowed the author to establish that two physical images correspond to a person: a real human body, i.e., his mass composition (atoms, nucleons, etc.) and the spinor image in the form of its biofield, displayed in the Energo-medium (Energo-ether) that and is the physical Aura. The spinor image or Aura of person is not a simple “photograph” but represents a system of real physical states or fractals in the Energo-medium, which, at the cellular level, are connected with the human body and interact with it at all stages of its existence. It is the physical Aura that is responsible for all the power reactions manifested by the body, providing, for example, “force service” of the activity of the central and autonomic nervous system. The article shows the conditions for the transformation of the Aura into a dead state after the death of a person, and also notes some fractals in its composition that are able to maintain former vital reactions for some time. The external manifestations of such “long-lived” fractals of the Aura, meeting the conditions of identity with a deceased person, can be perceived by some sensitive people. It is the last circumstance that can explain the numerous observations of ghosts and images of deceased people, emerging both in a dream and in reality. At the same time, the ability to form the marked fractals is not an exclusive property of the Aura of dying or deceased people. Such fractals capable of emitting and the quite healthy people in some of life situations. These latter fractals in the surrounding space can be perceived by some people and showing in ordinary dreams.

Published: November 2021

Increasing the amount of production, the diversity of products, a commodity and / or service, and increasing the productivity factor ratios contribute to developing the competitive strength of the organization in light of the increasingly difficult market conditions. That made all organizations work according to competitive strategies, including the production strategy for the purpose of achieving the organizations goal through the set of goals that they put. They rely on several new management systems of a strategic nature aimed at their survival and continuity in the production market. Hence, this research aims to evaluate the total productivity maintenance capacity in lean production throughout reducing the various kinds of losses, as the lean production is based on reducing each defective product (a commodity and / or service), costs, errors, and area, and all that and others aimed at improving product quality and customer satisfaction. However, the overall goals and production programs often encounter unexpected breakdowns at unexpected times, which lead to a breakdown in production and an imbalance in production plans as a result. Consequently, the companies suffer the expected revenue loss because they fail to reach the targeted production amount. The research has adopted a questionnaire that has been distributed to (50) employees of the General Company for Electric Power Production, the central region in Baghdad, which constituted more than 10% of the company’s employees. The results show that there is a strong direct relationship between the independent variable (total productivity maintenance) and the dependent variable (lean production). This distinction has explained 90% of the variables in the dependent variable.

Photocatalytic degradation of ammonia-nitrogen via N-doped graphene/bismuth sulfide catalyst under near-infrared light irradiation
Authors: Liu Wenxiao , Liu Shouqing
Published: November 2021

The N-doped graphene/bismuth sulfide (NG/Bi2S3) composite was synthesized by hydrothermal method. The structure and properties of the catalyst were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and UV-visible near-infrared diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. The degradation of ammonia-N was studied using 0.050 g NG/Bi2S3 as photocatalyst under near-infrared light irradiation. The results show that the degradation ratio of ammonia-N reaches 91.4% in 100.0 mg·L-1 ammonia-N solution with pH 9.0 under near-infrared light irradiation for 10 h. Under similar conditions，the degradation ratio of ammonia-N is only 65.5% when pure Bi2S3 is used as the photocatalyst. Kinetic studies show that the ammonia-N degradation follows the first-order reaction kinetics, and the average value of the apparent rate constant is 0.1240 h-1. Catalyst stability studies show that the degradation ratio of ammonia nitrogen in 7 runs is still greater than 85.5%, which indicates that the NG/Bi2S3 composite catalyst is very stable.

Published: November 2021

OBJECTIVE

To evaluate the effects of a flotation vest (FV) and water flow rate (WFR) on limb kinematics of dogs swimming against a current.

ANIMALS

7 (1 male and 6 female) healthy adult Siberian Huskies.

PROCEDURES

Dogs were habituated to swim with and without an FV beside an investigator in a continuous-flow pool against WFRs up to 2.9 km/h. During each of 4 experimental sessions in a repeated-measures study, markers were wrapped around the right carpus and tarsus, and a video was recorded while each dog swam with or without an FV for about 2 minutes at each of 7 WFRs between 0 and 2.9 km/h when the WFR was incrementally decreased or increased. Motion tracking software was used to measure stroke excursion and frequency.

RESULTS

Stroke excursion varied more than frequency among all dogs and in response to changes in experimental conditions. The male dog and 1 female dog were unable to complete the study. For the remaining 5 dogs across all experimental conditions, mean tarsus excursion was 30% that of the carpus. Mean total excursion (sum of the excursion-frequency products for the carpus and tarsus) decreased when an FV was worn and increased with WFR by 69% and 19% when WFR was incrementally increased and decreased, respectively.

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE

In dogs, range of motion during swimming was greater for the carpus than tarsus, when an FV was not worn, and increased more with WFR when WFR was incrementally increased. Those factors should be considered during swimming-based rehabilitation.
Effect of knot location on the biomechanical strength and gapping characteristics of ex vivo canine gastrocnemius tenorrhaphy constructs

Published: November 2021

OBJECTIVE

To evaluate the effect of knot location on the biomechanical strength and gapping characteristics of ex vivo canine gastrocnemius tenorrhaphy constructs.

SAMPLE

36 cadaveric gastrocnemius tendons from 18 adult dogs.

PROCEDURES

Tendons were randomly assigned to 3 groups (12 tendons/group) and sharply transected and repaired by means of a core locking-loop suture with the knot at 1 of 3 locations (exposed on the external surface of the tendon, buried just underneath the external surface of the tendon, or buried internally between the apposed tendon ends). All repairs were performed with size-0 polypropylene suture. All constructs underwent a single load-to-failure test. Yield, failure, and peak forces, mode of failure, and forces required for 1- and 3-mm gap formation were compared among the 3 knot-location groups.

RESULTS

Mean yield, failure, and peak forces and mean forces required for 1- and 3-mm gap formation did not differ significantly among the 3 groups. The mode of failure also did not differ significantly among the 3 groups, and the majority (33/36 [92%]) of constructs failed owing to the suture pulling through the tendinous substance.

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE

Final knot location did not significantly affect the biomechanical strength and gapping characteristics of canine gastrocnemius tenorrhaphy constructs. Therefore, all 3 evaluated knot locations may be acceptable for tendon repair in dogs. In vivo studies are necessary to further elucidate the effect of knot location in suture patterns commonly used for tenorrhaphy on tendinous healing and collagenous remodeling at the repair site.

Published: November 2021

This article presents and discusses a quantitative investigation of discourse markers (further – DMs) in the corpus of peer reviews of academic essays in didactics written by a group of future teachers of English as a Foreign Language (EFL). In total, 12 future EFL teachers at an intermediate level of EFL proficiency (henceforth – participants) took part in the study. The participants were instructed to form dyads and write peer reviews of each other’s academic essays on a range of topics in EFL didactics. Two corpora were used in the study, the corpus of the participants’ academic essays in EFL didactics and the corpus of peer reviews thereof. The corpora were analysed using WordSmith (Scott 2008) in order to establish the frequencies of the use of DMs per 1000 words. The results of the quantitative analysis of the corpora indicated that the participants employed a repertoire of stylistically neutral DMs in their peer reviews that was quantitatively similar to that of the academic essays. These findings will be further discussed in the article.

Namun disaat yang sama juga menyangkut pada aspek sosioekonomi dari para pekerja yang memiliki posisi sangat rentan di masa pandemi ini. Pada penelitian sebelumnya memperlihatkan banyak sekali dampak yang dirasakan oleh para pekerja di sektor pendidikan, kesehatan, sektor non-formal, pariwisata, dan pekerja migran. Namun sayangnya masih belum menyentuh secara mendalam dalam melihat dampak pandemi pada pekerja kreatif khususnya di bidang animasi. Disisi lain sektor animasi dianggap sebagai salah satu sektor industri yang dianggap mampu bertahan pada masa pandemi ini. Sehingga mengetahui seperti apa dampak pandemi pada pekerja di sektor animasi menjadi sangat penting. penelitian ini akan menggunakan pendekatan studi kasus dengan mewawancarai 120 pekerja animasi di 23 kota di seluruh Indonesia. Dari penelitian ini ditemukan bahwa dampak pandemi covid-19 ini terdiri dari 2 aspek, yaitu aspek internal dan eksternal. Para pekerja animasi seringkali dianggap sebagai pihak yang bisa beradaptasi pada masa pandemi karena kemampuannya dalam memanfaatkan teknologi terbaru. Faktanya tidak semua pekerjaan di bidang animasi dapat dikerjakan secara jarak jauh atau remote, karena masih dibutuhkan proses kerja secara onsite untuk memudahkan proses komunikasi dan koordinasi.

Authors: Khoirunurrofik Khoirunurrofik , Rahmawati Farina
Published: October 2021

This study aims to find empirical evidence of the relationship between planning and the practices associated with political budget cycles in Indonesia, with reference to the simultaneous regional head elections held in 2017 and 2018. A fixed-effect method using least-square dummy variables analyzes the role of planning in the relationship between local-government spending and political budget cycle behaviors. The results indicate that consistency between planning and budgeting can control the discretion applied by regional heads to increase and decrease budget expenditure in the two years before an election, one year before an election and in the election year itself. The magnitude of these reductions or increases differs between types of expenditure. The association between planning and the political budget cycle is significant in the two years before an election for primary expenditure allocations and in a year before an election for allocations of capital expenditure, social assistance, and grants and subsidies.
