MiR-875-5p suppresses cervical cancer cell proliferation and metastasis via negative regulation of EGFR
Authors: Liang Hua , Zhao Yuzi , Pi Jie , Luo Ruoyu
Published: February 2022

Purpose: To explore miRNA-875-5p and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) activities in tissues or cells from cervical cancer, and their underlying molecular mechanisms.

Methods: Tissues were obtained from cervical cancer patients and their miR-875-5p expression was determined by quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Caski or HeLa cells were transfected with miR-875-5p mimics or miR-875-5p inhibitor to assess the effect of miR-875- 5p expression on cell viability, cell cycle, migration, and invasion using Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8), flow cytometry, wound healing, and Transwell assays. Potential target genes of miR-875-5p were predicted and verified using a dual luciferase reporter assay. In addition, EGFR expression was evaluated by western blot.

Results: MicroRNA-875-5p was expressed at low levels in cervical cancer tissues and was related to FIGO stage, lymph node metastasis, pathological grade, vascular involvement, and deep stromal invasion in patients with cervical cancer. MicroRNA-875-5p overexpression inhibited cell viability, migration, and invasion, and caused G0/G1 phase block of Caski and HeLa cells. Moreover, EGFR was the target gene of miR-875-5p and was negatively regulated by miR-875-5p. Reductions in cell viability, migration, invasion, and the number of G0/G1-phase cells were inhibited by EGFR overexpression.

Conclusion: MiR-875-5p suppresses cervical cancer cell growth and metastasis by negatively regulating EGFR. Therefore, miR-875-5p can potentially be exploited for the management of cervical cancer.
Composition and structure of the mangrove fish and crustacean communities of Vanga Bay, Kenya
Authors: Wanjiru Caroline , Rueckert Sonja , Huxham Mark
Published: February 2022

Mangroves support coastal fisheries, particularly by providing nurseries for juvenile fish. However, much remains unknown about the fish and crustacean communities in mangroves and about the lifecycles and behaviours of individual species. This study is the first to describe the fish and crustacean communities in the Vanga mangrove ecosystem, the largest mangrove forest and the most important marine fisheries landing site in southern Kenya. Using fyke nets, 14 mangrove creek sites were sampled once every 3 months during spring tides, between September 2015 and September 2017. The sampling period covered the north east (NEM) and south east (SEM) monsoon seasons. A total of 1,879 fishes and 1,132 crustaceans were caught, represented by 59 and 16 species, respectively. Over 95 % of the fishes caught were juveniles with 50 % of both fish and crustacean species being of commercial importance. About 70 % of the catch was dominated by only 6 fish species with Yarica hyalosoma and Acropoma japonicum contributing 44 % of the total abundance. Penaeus semisulcatus and Penaeus indicus dominated the crustaceans. Fish abundances differed significantly between seasons, with the SEM catches almost three times higher than those in the NEM, while crustaceans displayed no clear seasonality. The study documents for the first time the fish and crustacean communities in Vanga mangroves and confirms their importance as juvenile habitat for commercial species. The importance of mangrove and near mangrove habitat as nursery habitat for both fish and crustaceans emphasizes the need for conservation particularly of seaward edges
Linguistic Fingerprints on Translation's Lens
Authors: Porter J.D. , Ilchuk Yulia , Dombrowski Quinn
Published: February 2022

What happens to the language fingerprints of a work when it is translated into another language? While translation studies has often prioritized concepts of equivalence (of form and function), and of textual function, digital humanities methodologies can provide a new analytical lens onto ways that stylistic traces of a text's source language can persist in a translated text. This paper presents initial findings of a project undertaken by the Stanford Literary Lab, which has identified distinctive grammatical features in short stories that have been translated into English. While the phenomenon of "translationese" has been well established particularly in corpus translation studies, we argue that digital humanities methods can be valuable for identifying specific traits for a vision of a world atlas of literary style.
Quotients of Bounded Natural Functors
Authors: Fürer Basil , Lochbihler Andreas , Schneider Joshua , Traytel Dmitriy
Published: February 2022

The functorial structure of type constructors is the foundation for many
definition and proof principles in higher-order logic (HOL). For example,
inductive and coinductive datatypes can be built modularly from bounded natural
functors (BNFs), a class of well-behaved type constructors. Composition,
fixpoints, and, under certain conditions, subtypes are known to preserve the
BNF structure. In this article, we tackle the preservation question for
quotients, the last important principle for introducing new types in HOL. We
identify sufficient conditions under which a quotient inherits the BNF
structure from its underlying type. Surprisingly, lifting the structure in the
obvious manner fails for some quotients, a problem that also affects the
quotients of polynomial functors used in the Lean proof assistant. We provide a
strictly more general lifting scheme that supports such problematic quotients.
We extend the Isabelle/HOL proof assistant with a command that automates the
registration of a quotient type as a BNF, reducing the proof burden on the user
from the full set of BNF axioms to our inheritance conditions. We demonstrate
the command's usefulness through several case studies.
Satisfiability and Model Checking for the Logic of Sub-Intervals under the Homogeneity Assumption
Authors: Bozzelli Laura , Molinari Alberto , Montanari Angelo , Peron Adriano , Sala Pietro
Published: February 2022

The expressive power of interval temporal logics (ITLs) makes them one of the
most natural choices in a number of application domains, ranging from the
specification and verification of complex reactive systems to automated
planning. However, for a long time, because of their high computational
complexity, they were considered not suitable for practical purposes. The
recent discovery of several computationally well-behaved ITLs has finally
changed the scenario.
In this paper, we investigate the finite satisfiability and model checking
problems for the ITL D, that has a single modality for the sub-interval
relation, under the homogeneity assumption (that constrains a proposition
letter to hold over an interval if and only if it holds over all its points).
We first prove that the satisfiability problem for D, over finite linear
orders, is PSPACE-complete, and then we show that the same holds for its model
checking problem, over finite Kripke structures. In such a way, we enrich the
set of tractable interval temporal logics with a new meaningful representative.
Effects Of Artificial Intelligence Used In Healthcare On Confidence On Patient And Physician
Authors: Maltaş Elif , Gümüş Muhammet , Kızılkaya Emine , Orhan Sibel
Published: February 2022

Artificial intelligence and robotic systems are rapidly entering healthcare, playing key roles in certain medical functions, including diagnostics and clinical treatments. The focus in the development of health technology has been on human-machine interactions. This has led to a number of technology-centric problems. This study focuses on the impact of these technologies on the patient-doctor relationship and human-organization in the healthcare. It’s argued that artificial intelligence in health can have significant effects on patient-doctor trust. It focuses on three main drivers of trust that is potentially supported or disrupted by the introduction of artificial intelligence or robotic systems in healthcare. First, doctors are certified and licensed to practice medicine. A license; indicates that some individuals have certain skills, knowledge, and a high level of value. Second, physicians appear to play a role as part of an active duo tasked with providing care that promotes patient value. Finally, a patient's experiences with their doctor are a positive or negative driver of trust between patient-physician understanding. When a doctor interacts with a patient, he builds social and experiential "capital" with him, and this understanding leads to increased trust. It’s argued that healthcare artificial intelligence systems should be considered as assistive technologies that go beyond the usual functions of medical devices. As a result, AI systems in health need to be regulated to provide relevant values. It’s suggested for patients and physicians that three high-level principles can guide this effort. Medical professionals must be licensed in healthcare AI systems; Alternative care methods should be provided until the approval and “standard of care” given by the patient or caregiver prior to its implementation and in terms of artificial intelligence is accepted. In prioritizing these functions in regulatory measures, medical community favour the appropriate societal and interpersonal deployment and implementation of such health technologies.
Molecular Epidemiology: Definition And Usage Areas
Authors: Arı Oğuz , Öztaş Dilek , Durmaz Rıza
Published: February 2022

In parallel with the technological developments in the last 20 years, the emergence of new techniques and the reduction in costs, molecular methods have gained importance in health sciences. The science of epidemiology, which deals with the etiology, distribution and prevention of diseases seen in both individual and society, has also benefited from molecular methods, especially since the 90s. Thanks to this partnership, “Molecular Epidemiology” has emerged as a sub-branch, which applies epidemiological studies at the molecular and biochemical level. In addition to the traditional epidemiological objectives such as identifying genetic and environmental risk factors of diseases, detecting susceptible individuals, detecting infectious agents, their reservoirs and distribution, objectives such as developing molecular diagnostic methods, examining and preventing infectious diseases, and identifying possible genetic causes of chronic diseases are among the study areas of molecular epidemiology. Pulse Field Gel Electrophoresis (PFGE), Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) based methods, Multi-locus VNTR (Variable Number Tandem Repeat) Analysis (MLVA), Multi-locus Sequence Typing (MLST) and DNA sequencing-based techniques are frequently used in examining the etiology of infectious diseases. When investigating chronic diseases such as cancer, several biomarkers are also used. Especially in cases where traditional epidemiological approaches are not sufficient, molecular methods are often preferred and even used as the gold standard in the diagnosis and detection of some diseases.

Authors:   Teacher II, Victorias National High School, Philippines, Pulana Analyn D.
Published: February 2022

Motivating learners is one of the most critical and challenging parts of teaching. As such, they differ in how they motivate students and their motivational strategies. This quantitative inquiry determined the motivational strategies of teachers and students’ academic performance according to age, civil status, teaching experience, highest educational attainment, and average monthly income. To answer the descriptive and inferential questions, a researcher-made questionnaire was utilized. It was revealed that the level of motivational strategies of teachers in the areas of (1) introduction of the lesson, (2) discussion of the lesson, and (3) assessment of lesson we're all on a high level. However, the results indicated that the respondents least prefer helping learners prepare for the discussion using a pre-formed questionnaire, informal classroom debates, and a strategy that allows learners to assess their peers and classmates' writing abilities and comprehension skills. Consequently, the level of learners’ academic performance was very satisfactory. Likewise, no significant differences in the level of teachers’ motivational strategies in the first and second areas when grouped according to age, civil status, teaching experience, and highest educational attainment. Additionally, no significant difference showed when teachers were grouped according to average monthly income in the first and third areas. It can conclude that most teachers are proceeding directly to lesson discussion and skipping the introduction to maximize class hours. Also, teachers have different motivational strategy preferences in engaging their learners. Likewise, they have a different mindset in motivating the lesson. As such, different strategies will positively influence academic performance. It is recommended that teachers be regularly subjected to seminars and training in pedagogical and instructional methods and other classroom management skill training to improve teaching practices and to help improve students’ academic performance.

Published: February 2022

Beekeeping in Uttarakhand is one of the oldest traditional practices followed both for the commercial purpose as well as the domestic use. It is an important supplementary income generating activity in the state. According to the experts, there is a need to adopt modern beekeeping practices by the traditional beekeepers in the state, especially in the areas like bee management, better extraction, honey storage and quality control. Honey bee farming is now a days becoming more popular due to its market demand in national as well as the international market. The farmers not only obtain economic benefits but beekeeping also helps the farmers increase the agricultural productivity through pollination. Uttarakhand has huge potential for beekeeping due to plenty of flora and suitability of climate but the farmers still depend on the traditional practices resulting in the low yield of honey produce both in terms of quality and quantity. Hence, there is a huge scope of adoption of advanced scientific practices in the state of Uttarakhand that can add to the farmers income in the state. ”Mountain farmers in Uttarakhand are facing extreme difficulties in meeting their basic needs because of meager opportunities to engage youth in respectable employment. The paper suggests that the Uttarakhand has tremendous scope for commercial beekeeping and use of bee for pollination of diversity agri-horticultural crops and wild flora. Also, the paper emphasizes on the constraints for beekeeping development and strategies for organic honey production in Mountain hill of Uttarakhand.

Galáxias são alguns dos objetos astronômicos mais impressionantes conhecidos. São estruturas com com tamanhos de dezenas ou até centenas de milhares de anos-luz, contendo centenas de bilhões de estrelas, e imersas em um halo de matéria escura com trilhões de vezes a massa do Sol. Dadas as suas dimensões impressionantes, pode ser curioso pensar que uma galáxia apresenta um ciclo de vida. Mas sim, uma galáxia nasce, evolui e “morre”, embora o processo possa levar alguns bilhões de anos. Neste texto, vou descrever alguns dos processos que conhecemos sobre a evolução de galáxias, ou que ainda estamos tentando descobrir, e como os cientistas estão trabalhando para desvendar esses mistérios.

The religious phenomenon becomes a subject of reflection from the moment it is practiced by human beings, because it must be understood, explained and interpreted ... The revelation, the rituals and the teachings ... are fixed in sacred texts , these are the object of conservation, reading and questioning. And because the contexts in which they evolve and develop are historical, this constantly poses the modalities of harmonization and application of the texts and the way of living the faith in the present without completely breaking with the faith of the first founders, which leads to "renewal". Religious thought in Islam is part of this logic and in the contexts of this time; the Islamic religion becomes the object of research and studies in many disciplines of the human and social sciences in a critical way that has encountered an end to many postulates. More than that, religion is the main subject of many research institutions, as is the case for the Mominoun without borders Foundation, which today appeals to many Arab and Muslim academics in order to carry out its studies and studies. In our article, we opted for an approach to religious thought based on the Foundation's project. Our critical reading is devoted to the most important forum organized by the Foundation in 2014 in Marrakech.

Exclusive Brand Outlet Expansion Framework for Lifestyle Brands in India (EBOE-LS)
Authors: Ganesh H.R. , Aithal P. S.
Published: February 2022

Though EBOs’ (Exclusive Brand Outlet) risk-mitigation is a collective responsibility of lifestyle brand and the expansion partner (franchisee), a majority of lifestyle brands in India believe that the risk of capital investment/recurring expenses of EBOs and profit generated by EBOs has to be owned by the expansion partner. This belief and unbalanced business strategy of lifestyle brands though attract franchisees in the early stages of EBO expansion due to the brand’s reputation in the market or initial lucrative contract terms, it seriously fails to bring any long-term strategic and competitive advantages to the lifestyle brand as the drop-out rate of expansion partners increase significantly after one year of operation. This belief is also distracting lifestyle brands from understanding the long-term positive impact of EBO expansion frameworks that could balance the risk-mitigation and profits between the brand and the expansion partner. A single theory, model and framework of ‘Firm-Contracts’ and ‘Distribution Systems’ from the existing literature available across perspectives, paradigms, and areas of study (Economics, Business Law, Market Penetration, Business Strategy, Marketing and so on) is not entirely applicable that could be adopted to suit lifestyle brand’s EBO expansion plan in India and designing a framework without empirical pieces of evidence is also not appropriate. In this study, (i) we have studied existing theories, models and frameworks relevant to market penetration and expansion; (ii) analyzed 24 months’ of actual EBO data of a few select organized lifestyle brands in India across their existing expansion models; (iii) borrowed experimental findings and insights from previous studies relevant in this context, to identify key decision and investment-making areas that could result in a balanced business contract between a lifestyle brand and the expansion partner thereby designing an economical/effective framework that would be useful in deployment of appropriate tactics of deciding a right EBO type for every City Type and the Store Location by a lifestyle brand in India. The framework is named as EBOE-LS.
