Authors: Rodríguez Hernández Iván Alberto , Robles Hernández Loreto , González Franco Ana Cecilia
Published: January 2024

Erwinia amylovora es una enterobacteria generadora de tizón de fuego o mancha de fuego, siendo esta una enfermedad de la familia Rosácea en las que se afectan principalmente el manzano, peral y membrillo, actualmente está presente en más de 40 países. El manzano es una de las especies de mayor difusión a escala mundial, siendo México uno de los principales productores. La mancha de fuego es una enfermedad letal para el árbol generando pérdidas millonarias entre los agricultores a nivel mundial, y hasta la fecha no se tiene una cura concreta lo que la hace peligrosa. Una de las técnicas para determinar que tan agresivas pueden ser las cepas de Erwinia amylovora, es la utilización de la técnica de bioensayos de virulencia y patogenicidad, lo que permite poder manejar de mejor manera esta enfermedad y tener pérdidas mínimas al enfrentarse a la enfermedad mancha de fuego.

Published: January 2024

The cardiovascular system and respiratory organs in animals are interconnected, they perform extremely important functions for the vital activity of the organism, the main of which is gas exchange. Therefore, the study of the cardiovascular system and respiratory organs is an urgent issue of the present. The aim of the study was to morphologically evaluate the macro- and histological structures of the heart and lungs of the domestic dog. Comprehensive morphological methods of research were used: histological, anatomical, organ, histo-, cytometric, and statistical, which provided new data on the peculiarities of macro-, histo-, and cytomorphometric characteristics of the morphological structures of the heart and lungs. The dog heart has a rounded shape, its absolute weight is 167.58±9.46 g (without epicardial fat – 154.22±8.04 g), relative weight – 0.72±0.005%. It was found that cardiomyocytes of the left ventricle had the largest volume, the right ventricle – the smallest, and atrial cardiomyocytes – the smallest. At the same time, the nuclearcytoplasmic ratio of cardiomyocytes of the left ventricle is 0.0224±0.0076, the cardiomyocytes of the right ventricle have a greater value – 0.0275±0.0081 and the atrial cardiomyocytes have the highest value – 0.0367±0.0105. Such ambiguous cytometric parameters of cardiomyocytes are associated with the morphological and functional activity of the myocardial ventricular muscle tissue and its functional features inherent in spontaneous and rhythmic contractions, which result in blood flow through a closed system of vessels. The absolute weight of the domestic dog’s lungs is 201.3±18.4 g, the relative weight is 1.21±0.14%, the ratio of the absolute weight of the left to the right lung is 1:1.33. According to the asymmetry coefficient (1.37:1), the lungs of dogs are of the narrowed-elongated type. The connective tissue stroma of the lungs occupies 59.62±3.4%, the respiratory part – 40.38±2.6%. The data on the morphology of the heart and lungs of the domestic dog, including the results of the study of the macro- and microscopic structure of the organs under investigation, which are presented in the publication, are of great importance for histology and comparative anatomy, and also make a significant contribution to clinical veterinary medicine
DEPENDENCIA AL TELÉFONO MÓVIL Y SU RELACIÓN CON LA PROCRASTINACIÓN ACADÉMICA Y ANSIEDAD EN ESTUDIANTES DE LA FACULTAD DE PSICOLOGÍA
Authors: Delgado Castellanos Jorge , Vargas Monique , Santos Eloy M.
Published: January 2024

La dependencia del teléfono móvil se refiere a un miedo intenso o una ansiedad extrema que las personas experimentan cuando no tienen acceso a sus teléfonos móviles. Por otro lado, la "procrastinación académica" es la tendencia de posponer las tareas académicas o estudiantiles, como estudiar para un examen, completar un proyecto, escribir un ensayo, o hacer la tarea, a pesar de ser consciente de la importancia de estas tareas. Por último, la "ansiedad" es una respuesta del cuerpo al estrés y a las situaciones de peligro. La dependencia al teléfono móvil puede llevar a la procrastinación académica, ya que las constantes notificaciones, aplicaciones de redes sociales y juegos pueden ser distracciones significativas. Además, por el uso excesivo del teléfono móvil los estudiantes pueden posponer sus responsabilidades académicas para seguir usando sus dispositivos, lo que conduce a la procrastinación. La dependencia al teléfono móvil también puede estar relacionada con la ansiedad, especialmente cuando los estudiantes se sienten obligados a responder constantemente a mensajes y notificaciones. Es por ello que realizamos un estudio para investigar la relación entre estas tres variables. Se utilizó un enfoque cuantitativo y un diseño transversal correlacional. La muestra incluyó 187 estudiantes de primero y cuarto año de la Facultad de Psicología de la Universidad de Panamá. Se utilizaron tres herramientas para medir las variables: el Test de Dependencia al Teléfono Móvil (TDM) para evaluar la dependencia al teléfono móvil, la Escala de Procrastinación Académica (EPA) para medir la procrastinación académica y el Inventario de Ansiedad de Zung para evaluar la ansiedad. Los resultados mostraron una correlación de r= 0.21 entre la dependencia al teléfono móvil y la ansiedad, y una correlación de r= -0.10 entre la dependencia al teléfono móvil y la procrastinación académica. Esto indica que en nuestra muestra no encontramos una relación significativa entre las variables estudiadas.
A novel tool-input-process-output (TIPO) framework for upgrading to lean 4.0
Authors: Koteswarapavan C. , Pattanaik L. N.
Published: January 2024

For more than four decades, Lean Manufacturing (LM) has delivered in terms of waste reduction, productivity and sustainability for the benefit of manufacturers, customers and society at large. In the present era of Industry 4.0 (I4.0), the integration of physical and digital systems is providing huge scope for enhancing the performances of conventional lean tools and practices. Although recent literature has emphasized the integration of lean and Industry 4.0 as Lean 4.0, the mode of integration and basis for selecting technologies need to be explored more. The present paper aims to address this gap and presents a novel Tool-Input-Process-Output (TIPO) approach in which ‘Inputs’ required for the implementation of conventional lean tools are identified and mapped with core characteristics of I4.0 technologies to develop the ‘Process’ for the integration. Exemplified on three prominent lean tools; Just-In-Time (JIT), Jidoka and Heijunka  to illustrate the proposed framework.
Instructional Decision Making in a Gateway Quantitative Reasoning Course
Authors: Budhathoki Deependra , Foley Gregory , Shadik Stephen
Published: January 2024

Many educators and professional organizations recommend Quantitative Reasoning as the best entry-level postsecondary mathematics course for non-STEM majors. However, novice and veteran instructors who have no prior experience in teaching a QR course often express their ignorance of the content to choose for this course, the instruction to offer students, and the assessments to measure student learning. We conducted a case study to investigate the initial implementation of an entry-level university quantitative reasoning course during fall semester, 2018. The participants were the course instructor and students. We examined the instructor’s motives and actions and the students’ responses to the course. The instructor had no prior experience teaching a QR course but did have 15 years of experience teaching student-centered mathematics. Data included course artifacts, class observations, an instructor interview, and students’ written reflections. Because this was a new course—and to adapt to student needs—the instructor employed his instructional autonomy and remained flexible in designing and enacting the course content, instruction, and assessment. His instructional decision making and flexible approach helped the instructor tailor the learning activities and teaching practices to the needs and interests of the students. The students generally appreciated and benefited from this approach, enjoyed the course, and provided positive remarks about the instructors’ practices.

In the public health portfolio of disaster tools, rapid needs assessments are essential intelligence data mining resources that can assess immediate needs in almost all hazard scenarios. Following prolonged and unusual seismic activity that caused significant structural damage, mainly in the southwest part of the island of Puerto Rico, thousands of area residents were forced to leave their homes and establish improvised camps. The austere environmental exposure and limited access to safety and hygiene services prompted public health authorities to request assistance with conducting a rapid needs assessment of those encampments. This report summarizes the design, organization, and execution of a rapid needs assessment of improvised camps following a strong sequence of earthquakes in Puerto Rico.

Published: January 2024

This case study aimed at assessing the impact of the May 2021 War on medical personnel who worked during the coronavirus pandemic. This study was conducted at the Indonesian Hospital in the northern Gaza Strip. This case study included a sample of 391 participants. Of these participants, 100 employees of the Indonesian Hospital were selected randomly. The results revealed that the war has affected social distancing practices and adherence to health guidelines related to the pandemic, an impossible luxury to a large degree, with a mean rate of 4.54. There was a sharp shortage of medical supplies and medicines that have been affected by the war, which in turn affected the treatment of patients with coronavirus with a mean rate of 4.54. In addition, the medical staff faced mild exposure to gases due to military actions, with a mean rate of 3.78. This study recommended that vulnerable countries should be protected under the International Humanitarian Law and be given the necessity of respecting and protecting healthcare. In addition, the denial of medical treatment may be considered cruel or inhumane behavior and an affront to human dignity, constituting war crimes as grave breaches of the Geneva Conventions.
Provider attitudes and current practice regarding the prescription of opioid-containing pain medication for vaginal delivery
Authors: Atkinson Sarah , Whelan Anna R. , Litwiller Abigail
Published: January 2024

Background: The epidemic of opioid misuse and abuse is rampant in the United States. A large percentage of patients who go on to misuse or abuse opioids were initially legally prescribed an opioid medication by their physician. One of the most common reasons patients of reproductive age seek medical care is for pregnancy and delivery. These patients are frequently prescribed opioids. Greater than one in 10 Medicaid-enrolled women fill an opioid prescription after vaginal delivery.

Objective: To assess the opioid prescribing patterns of obstetric providers following vaginal deliveries.

Study design: Obstetric physicians and certified nurse midwives (CNMs) from different practice backgrounds were administered a questionnaire regarding opioid prescribing practices for patients who undergo vaginal delivery. Providers were contacted via email and completed survey via REDCap.

Results: Ninety-nine providers completed the survey between October 2018 and January 2019. Eight percent of all providers reported prescribing opioids at discharge after vaginal deliveries. There was a statistically significant difference in the proportion of physicians who provided opioid prescriptions at discharge compared to CNMs (16.7 percent vs 1.8 percent, respectively, p < .05). Common reasons for prescribing opioids at discharge included post-partum tubal ligation (56.4 percent), third- and fourth-degree lacerations (59.6 and 73.4 percent, respectively), and operative deliveries (26.6 percent). Physicians were significantly more likely to prescribe an opioid after a second-degree laceration than CNMs (19.1 percent vs 5.3 percent, p < 0.05).

Conclusions: Practice patterns for opioid prescription vary by provider type as well as by delivery characteristics. Further study is necessary to delineate the optimal care while minimizing unnecessary opioid prescriptions.
Outpatient cross-titration to buprenorphine for chronic pain: A retrospective analysis
Authors: Ito Satoru , Welsh Mackenzie , Bockman Christina , Dale Rebecca , Pilkington David , Peperzak Katherin
Published: January 2024

Objective: To determine the effectiveness and safety of the University of Washington's buprenorphine cross-titration protocol for chronic pain in the outpatient setting.

Methods: Retrospective chart review was performed on 150 patients transitioned from full μ-opioid agonist therapy to buprenorphine using the University of Washington Medical Center Pain Clinic's cross-titration protocol between September 1, 2020, and December 31, 2021, in an outpatient setting. Primary outcome was to determine the percentage of patients who completed the cross-titration and continued buprenorphine without full μ-opioid agonists 4 weeks after completion. Secondary outcomes included final buprenorphine dose, days needed to complete cross-titration, deviation rates from the protocol, and opioid-related adverse events.

Results: Fifteen of 31 (48.4 percent) included patients successfully converted to buprenorphine. Median duration of successful cross-titration was 29 days (interquartile range 19-57). Average end-titration dose for patients on buprenorphine/naloxone sublingual films was 7.9 ± 5.7 mg/day, while for buprenorphine transdermal (TD) patches, it was 11.9 ± 4.8 mcg/h. Morphine equivalent daily dose (MEDD) prior to induction varied widely. All patients transitioned to TD buprenorphine were taking ≤30 mg MEDD. Patients previously taking >120 mg MEDD stabilized on 8-16 mg/day buprenorphine. Most common reasons for cross-titration failure were inadequate pain control and intolerable adverse effects.

Discussion: The University of Washington's buprenorphine cross-titration protocol for chronic pain was successful in about half of included patients undergoing conversion from chronic full μ-opioid agonist therapy and generally well tolerated. Clinical responses were widely variable, and many required slower taper and higher end-titration buprenorphine dose than anticipated. Although protocols provide structure for cross-titration, each course should be monitored closely and individualized.

These days, security operations centers (SOCs) face numerous challenges and problems that can negatively impact their ability to detect, investigate, and respond to security incidents. Some of the major challenges include the increasing volume and complexity of security alerts, the shortage of qualified cybersecurity professionals, the use of disparate security tools and systems, and the need to comply with various regulatory frameworks. In this research, the authors developed detection rules that address the needs for accuracy and specificity to avoid false positives that can lead to unnecessary alerts and undermine the effectiveness of automated response systems. The proposed detection rules have been thoroughly tested on real security incidents to ensure their reliability and effectiveness. The authors of this study, in their work, proposed playbook development methods and SIEM correlation rules, and developed detection rules that enable automatic incident response, thereby facilitating the work of SOC analysts.

Modern studies in the application of machine learning in agrotechnology have showcased significant advancements in accurate crop yield forecasting and agricultural production optimization. This study aimed to select optimal hyperparameters for a neural network designed to forecast the impact of phosphorus on the yield of spring wheat. Tasks to achieve this goal included the selection of optimal neural network hyperparameters and deployment of the prediction model into forecasting system, ensuring accessibility and user convenience. Input dataset consisted of year, region, climatic indicators (temperature of the soil surface, precipitation, humidity), applied phosphorus, and the target variable is the yield of spring wheat. To select the optimal hyperparameters, GridSearchCV was utilized and integrated into the experiment, enabling the achievement of more precise and impactful forecasting outcomes. Experiments aimed at hyperparameter tuning identified an optimal network configuration (3 layers, 32 neurons, 300 epochs, 32 batches). Results from training showcased that this network configuration achieved the best performance, demonstrating minimal mean squared error (MSE). These results introduced a novel scientific approach in training data using this neural network model for forecasting the yield of cereal crops. Developing the prediction system's interface relied on the Streamlit, allowing the creation of an intuitive and user-friendly interface. The visualization derived from this model empowers users to evaluate crop yield and receive recommendations for optimal phosphorus application to enhance spring wheat yield. These results highlighted practical significance of this prediction system, based on neural network utilizing optimal hyperparameters that are ready for practical implementation by system developers.

В данной статье представлено исследование динамики системы управления ориентацией спутника (СУОС) с применением PD-регулятора, где кинематика описывается уравнениями в кватернионах. Основной акцент сделан на актуальности представления нелинейных уравнений динамики в линейной форме, что открывает возможности для использования широкого спектра инженерных методов анализа устойчивости и синтеза параметров системы управления. Одним из ключевых результатов исследования является выявление того, что с применением теоремы об изменении кинетического момента механической системы нелинейные уравнения динамики СУОС могут быть представлены в виде линейной системы дифференциальных уравнений с переменными во времени параметрами. В заключении подчеркнуто, что необходимо понимание, что постоянные элементы матрицы системы линейных дифференциальных уравнений зависят от параметров закона управления и проекций начального значения кинетического момента спутника на оси инерциальной системы координат. В то время как переменные элементы матрицы зависят от разности текущих значений проекций кинетического момента спутника на оси инерциальной и связанной систем координат. Это исследование приводит к выводу, что динамика системы управления ориентацией спутника тесно связана со значениями параметров закона управления, а также с начальными угловыми скоростями спутника и маховиков. Развитие данной темы открывает перспективы для более глубокого понимания и оптимизации СУОС.

Abstract. Stabilized Criegee intermediates (SCIs) and organic peroxy radicals (RO2) are critical in atmospheric oxidation processes and secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation. However, the influence of temperature on their corresponding reaction mechanisms in SOA formation is unclear. Through utilizing formic acid as a SCI scavenger and regulating the ratio of hydroperoxyl radials (HO2) to RO2 ([HO2]/[RO2]) from ∼ 0.3 to ∼ 1.9 using different concentrations of CO, the roles of RO2 and SCIs in SOA formation were investigated from 248 to 298 K, particularly for dimer formation in β-pinene ozonolysis. The SOA yield increased by 21 % from 298 to 273 K, while it decreased by 40 % from 273 to 248 K. Both changing [HO2]/[RO2] and scavenging SCIs significantly affect SOA yield and composition. SCI reactions accounted for more than 40 % of dimer and SOA mass formation for all temperatures. Increasing [HO2]/[RO2] inhibited dimer and SOA formation, and this inhibition became larger with decreasing temperature. Compared to low [HO2]/[RO2] (0.30–0.34), the dimer abundance at high [HO2]/[RO2] (1.53–1.88) decreased by about 31 % at 298 K and 70 % at 248 K. [HO2]/[RO2] has a specific impact on SCI-controlled dimers at lower temperatures by especially influencing the C9–SCI reactions with RO2. The dimers formed from C9–SCI reactions with RO2 were estimated to decrease by 61 % at high [HO2]/[RO2] compared to low [HO2]/[RO2] at 248 K. The high reactivity and substantial contribution to SOA of β-pinene-derived SCIs at lower temperatures observed in this study suggest that monoterpene-derived SCI reactions should be accounted for in describing colder regions of the atmosphere.

Abstract. Precipitation events are becoming more intense around the world, changing the way water moves through soils and plants. Plant rooting strategies that sustain water uptake under these conditions are likely to become more abundant (e.g., shrub encroachment). Yet, it remains difficult to predict species responses to climate change because we typically do not know where active roots are located or how much water they absorb. Here, we applied a water tracer experiment to describe forb, grass, and shrub root distributions. These measurements were made in 8 m by 8 m field shelters with low or high precipitation intensity. We used tracer uptake data in a soil water flow model to estimate how much water respective plant root tissues absorb over time. In low-precipitation-intensity plots, deep shrub roots were estimated to absorb the most water (93 mm yr−1) and shrubs had the greatest aboveground cover (27 %). Grass root distributions were estimated to absorb an intermediate amount of water (80 mm yr−1) and grasses had intermediate aboveground cover (18 %). Forb root distributions were estimated to absorb the least water (79 mm yr−1) and had the least aboveground cover (12 %). In high-precipitation-intensity plots, shrub and forb root distributions changed in ways that increased their water uptake relative to grasses, predicting the increased aboveground growth of shrubs and forbs in these plots. In short, water uptake caused by different rooting distributions predicted plant aboveground cover. Our results suggest that detailed descriptions of active plant root distributions can predict plant growth responses to climate change in arid and semi-arid ecosystems.

Abstract. In this work, we implement, verify, and validate a physics-based digital twin solution applied to a floating offshore wind turbine. The digital twin is validated using measurement data from the full-scale TetraSpar prototype. We focus on the estimation of the aerodynamic loads, wind speed, and section loads along the tower, with the aim of estimating the fatigue lifetime of the tower. Our digital twin solution integrates (1) a Kalman filter to estimate the structural states based on a linear model of the structure and measurements from the turbine, (2) an aerodynamic estimator, and (3) a physics-based virtual sensing procedure to obtain the loads along the tower. The digital twin relies on a set of measurements that are expected to be available on any existing wind turbine (power, pitch, rotor speed, and tower acceleration) and motion sensors that are likely to be standard measurements for a floating platform (inclinometers and GPS sensors). We explore two different pathways to obtain physics-based models: a suite of dedicated Python tools implemented as part of this work and the OpenFAST linearization feature. In our final version of the digital twin, we use components from both approaches. We perform different numerical experiments to verify the individual models of the digital twin. In this simulation realm, we obtain estimated damage equivalent loads of the tower fore–aft bending moment with an accuracy of approximately 5 % to 10 %. When comparing the digital twin estimations with the measurements from the TetraSpar prototype, the errors increased to 10 %–15 % on average. Overall, the accuracy of the results is promising and demonstrates the possibility of using digital twin solutions to estimate fatigue loads on floating offshore wind turbines. A natural continuation of this work would be to implement the monitoring and diagnostics aspect of the digital twin to inform operation and maintenance decisions. The digital twin solution is provided with examples as part of an open-source repository.
