Authors: Liu Jinheng , Zhang Yuanjie , Xu Huangrong , Wu Dengshan , Yu Weixing
Published: September 2022

The bionic curved compound-eye camera is a bionic-inspired multi-aperture camera, which can be designed to have an overlap on the field of view (FOV) in between adjacent ommatidia so that 3D measurement is possible. In this work, we demonstrate the 3D measurement with a working distance of up to 3.2 m by a curved compound-eye camera. In that there are hundreds of ommatidia in the compound-eye camera, traditional calibration boards with a fixed-pitch pattern arrays are not applicable. A batch calibration method based on the CALTag calibration board for the compound-eye camera was designed. Next, the 3D measurement principle was described and a 3D measurement algorithm for the compound-eye camera was developed. Finally, the 3D measurement experiment on objects placed at different distances and directions from the compound-eye camera was performed. The experimental results show that the working range for 3D measurement can cover the whole FOV of 98° and the working distance can be as long as 3.2 m. Moreover, a complete depth map was reconstructed from a raw image captured by the compound-eye camera and demonstrated as well. The 3D measurement capability of the compound-eye camera at long working distance in a large FOV demonstrated in this work has great potential applications in areas such as unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) obstacle avoidance and robot navigation.

Published: September 2022

This Letter demonstrates the transmission of fifth-generation new radio (5G NR) millimeter-wave signals over a seamless fiber–terahertz-wave mobile fronthaul system in the 350 GHz band for an ultra-dense small cell network. The system utilizes a simple optical heterodyne method at the transmitter and direct detection at the receiver. As a proof-of-concept demonstration, we successfully transmitted 256- and 64-quadrature amplitude modulation 5G-NR-compliant signals at 24.2 and 38 GHz over a seamless fiber–terahertz system in the 350 GHz band. The proposed system can provide a simple solution to facilitate the deployment of ultra-dense small cells in high-frequency bands in 5G networks and beyond.

Extracellular vesicles of endosomal origin, exosomes, mediate intercellular communication by transporting substrates with a variety of functions related to tissue homeostasis and disease. Their diagnostic and therapeutic potential has been recognized for diseases such as cancer in which signaling defects are prominent. However, it is unclear to what extent exosomes and their cargo inform the progression of infectious diseases. We recently defined a subset of exosomes termed defensosomes that are mobilized during bacterial infection in a manner dependent on autophagy proteins. Through incorporating protein receptors on their surface, defensosomes mediated host defense by binding and inhibiting pore-forming toxins secreted by bacterial pathogens. Given this capacity to serve as decoys that interfere with surface protein interactions, we investigated the role of defensosomes during infection by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the etiological agent of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). Consistent with a protective function, exosomes containing high levels of the viral receptor ACE2 in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) from critically ill COVID-19 patients was associated with reduced intensive care unit (ICU) and hospitalization times. We found ACE2+ exosomes were induced by SARS-CoV-2 infection and activation of viral sensors in cell culture, which required the autophagy protein ATG16L1, defining these as defensosomes. We further demonstrate that ACE2+ defensosomes directly bind and block viral entry. These findings suggest that defensosomes may contribute to the antiviral response against SARS-CoV-2 and expand our knowledge on the regulation and effects of extracellular vesicles during infection.

The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the mobility patterns of a majority of Americans beginning in March 2020. Despite the beneficial, socially distanced activity offered by outdoor recreation, confusing and contradictory public health messaging complicated access to natural spaces. Working with a dataset comprising the locations of roughly 50 million distinct mobile devices in 2019 and 2020, we analyze weekly visitation patterns for 8,135 parks across the United States. Using Bayesian inference, we identify regions that experienced a substantial change in visitation in the first few weeks of the pandemic. We find that regions that did not exhibit a change were likely to have smaller populations, and to have voted more republican than democrat in the 2020 elections. Our study contributes to a growing body of literature using passive observations to explore who benefits from access to nature.

Authors: Sawalha Samer , Al-Jawabreh Amer , Hjaija Dea , Ereqat Suheir , Nasereddin Abdelmajeed , Al-Jawabreh Hanan , Evlampidou Iro
Published: September 2022

Background

Zoonotic cutaneous leishmaniasis (ZCL) is endemic in Palestine and transmitted byPhlebotomussand flies. They inhabit dens of hyraxes, the reservoir animal. Control measures were implemented since 1996 but cases still occur. We estimated the effect of insecticide thermal fogging inside hyrax dens on sand fly density and leishmania infection.

Methodology/Principal findings

During July-September 2019, we conducted a 12-week controlled interrupted time series study in two control and one intervention sites containing three hyrax dens each. We implemented Permethrin thermal fogging in the intervention site at week 6. We measured weekly and 36hrs post-intervention sand fly abundance inside dens using CDC light traps. We performed Next-Generation Sequencing to identify sand flyLeishmania spp. infection. We calculated the abundance reduction (AR) using Mulla’s formula and negative binomial regression. Among 11427 collected sand flies, 7339 (64%) were females and 1786 (16%) werePhlebotomus spp. comprising ten species;P.sergentiwas the dominant (n = 773, 43%). We reportP.arabicus(n = 6) for the first time in Palestine. After fogging,Phlebotomus spp. AR was 93% at 36hrs, 18% and 38% at two and five weeks respectively and 41% during the complete post-intervention period. In the regression models,Phlebotomus spp. density in the intervention site decreased by 74% (IRR: 0.26, 95%CI: 0.11–0.57) at two weeks, 34% (IRR: 0.66, 95%CI: 0.48–0.90) at five weeks and 74% (IRR: 0.26, 95%CI: 0.12–0.59) during the complete period. The density ofLeishmaniainfected sand flies decreased by 65% (IRR: 0.35, 95%CI: 0.26–0.48) at five weeks and 82% (IRR: 0.18, 95%CI: 0.07–0.42) for the complete period (zero infections until week two).Leishmaniainfection prevalence in the intervention site was 14% pre-intervention and 3.9% post-intervention.

Conclusions/Significance

Fogging hyrax dens reduced sand fly abundance and leishmania infection during the 5-week post-intervention period and especially the first two weeks suggesting it could be an effective source-reduction measure for ZCL vectors. Future randomized controlled trials are needed to confirm the effectiveness of fogging hyrax dens on decreasing ZCL incidence.

Practice is required to improve one’s shooting technique in basketball or to play a musical instrument well. Learning these motor skills may be further enhanced by transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). We aimed to investigate whether tDCS leads to faster attainment of a motor skill, and to confirm prior work showing it improves skill acquisition and retention performance. Fifty-two participants were tested; half received tDCS with the anode on primary motor cortex and cathode on the contralateral forehead while concurrently practicing a sequential visuomotor isometric pinch force task on Day 1, while the other half received sham tDCS during practice. On Day 2, retention of the skill was tested. Results from a Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that participants in the anodal group attained a pre-defined target level of skill faster than participants in the sham group (χ2 = 9.117, p = 0.003). Results from a nonparametric rank-based regression analysis showed that the rate of improvement was greater in the anodal versus sham group during skill acquisition (F(1,249) = 5.90, p = 0.016), but there was no main effect of group or time. There was no main effect of group or time, or group by time interaction when comparing performance at the end of acquisition to retention. These findings suggest anodal tDCS improves performance more quickly during skill acquisition but does not have additional benefits on motor learning after a period of rest.
Measuring industrial lumber production using nighttime lights: A focus study on lumber mills in British Columbia, Canada
Authors: Jarron Lukas R. , Coops Nicholas C. , Roeser Dominik
Published: September 2022

Nighttime lights (NTL) are the procurement of remotely sensed artificial illumination from the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) satellite. NTL provides a unique perspective on anthropogenic activity by characterizing spatial and temporal patterns related to economic trends and human development. In this study, we assess the ability of NTL to characterize trends associated with industrial lumber production in British Columbia, Canada. We establish the presence of a logarithmic relationship between NTL and lumber mill production capacity (R2= 0.69–0.82). The ability of NTL to temporally identify mill closures is then demonstrated by differentiating pairs of active and closed mills. We also identify Granger causality and co-integration between NTL and monthly lumber production, highlighting the predictive capability of NTL to forecast production. We then utilize this relationship to build linear regression models that utilize NTL data to estimate monthly (R2= 0.33), quarterly (R2= 0.58), and annual (R2= 0.90) lumber production without reported data.

Published: September 2022

The narrow genetic base of modern cultivars is becoming a key bottleneck for crop improvement and the use of wild relatives is an appropriate approach to improve the genetic diversity of crops to manage the sustainable production under different abiotic and biotic constraints. In Pakistan, wild germplasm of grapevine viz Dakh, Toran, and Zarishk belong to Vitis vinifera subsp. sylvestris and Fatati belong to Vitis vinifera subsp. sativa is naturally present in humid and sub-humid areas of mountainous and sub-mountainous regions and showed varying level of tolerance against drought stress but have not been evaluated as rootstock. In this study, different tolerant behavior of wild grapevines as rootstock in grafted scion varieties were explored under different levels of PEG-6000 mediated drought stress i.e., -4.00, -6.00, and -8.00 bars. In response to drought stress, wild grapevines evoked several non-enzymatic and enzymatic activities. Among non-enzymatic activities, total chlorophyll contents of commercial varieties were sustained at higher level when grafted on wild grapevines Dakh and Fatati which subsequently reduced the damage of cell membrane via MDA. Whereas, to cope the membranous damage due to excessive cellular generation of ROS, wild grapevines triggered the enhanced activities of SOD to dismutase the free oxygen radicals into H2O2, then CAT enzyme convert the H2O2 into water molecules. Higher accumulation of ROS in commercial scion varieties were also coped by wild grapevines Dakh and Fatati through the upregulation of POD and APX enzymes activities. Based on these enzymatic and non-enzymatic indices, biplot and cluster analysis classified the wild grapevines as rootstock into three distinct categories comprises on relatively tolerant i.e., Dakh (Vitis vinifera subsp. sylvestris) and Fatati (Vitis vinifera subsp. sativa), moderate tolerant i.e., Toran (Vitis vinifera subsp. sylvestris) and relatively susceptible category i.e., Zarishk (Vitis vinifera subsp. sylvestris).

The Influence of Financial Literacy on Financial Behaviors: Evidence From Mandatory Federal Student Loan Entrance Counseling
Authors: Anderson Somer G. , Heckman Stuart J. , Lawson Derek R.
Published: September 2022

This study examines the relationship between mandatory federal student loan entrance counseling, financial literacy, and financial behaviors using evidence collected from federal student loan borrowers as part of the National Student Financial Wellness Study conducted by The Ohio State
University. Results from a structural equation model indicate that effective federal student loan entrance counseling is positively related to financial literacy, which is associated with more positive financial behaviors. Additionally, the results show that positive financial behaviors are
associated with lower expected student loan debt burdens. Although the results indicate that mandatory federal student loan entrance counseling may contribute to increased financial literacy, positive financial behaviors, and reduced debt burdens of many students, the information delivered
in entrance counseling seems to be "lost" on about one-third of the students in the sample. The result that financial literacy is associated with positive financial behaviors is promising for family and consumer sciences professionals as they seek to educate students and communities about
personal finance topics. Results also highlight the need to supplement or enhance mandatory student loan entrance counseling with other resources and forms of financial education.
Infusing the FCS-BOK in a CDFS Curriculum
Authors: Williams-Wheeler Meeshay , McMillan Valerie Jarvis , Lee Sung-Jin
Published: September 2022

The Family and Consumer Sciences Body of Knowledge (FCS-BOK) is positioned to address the myriad social changes that have an impact on children, youth, and 21 st century families. The FCS-BOK represents opportunities and challenges within our society, with the circular model demonstrating
the synergy and interrelationships within the profession ("The FCS Body of Knowledge," 2010). The over-arching themes include: core concepts (basic human needs, community vitality, individual well-being, and family strengths), integrative elements (human ecosystems and life course development),
and cross-cutting themes (capacity building, global interdependence, resource development and sustainability, appropriate use of technology, and wellness) (see Figure 1).
 The Family and Consumer Sciences Department at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University (N.
C. A&T) systematically infuses the FCS-BOK within all areas of study (i.e., Child Development and Family Studies [CDFS], Consumer Sciences [CS], Fashion Merchandising and Design [FMD], and Food and Nutritional Sciences [FNS]. To promote and support students' comprehensive awareness and
understanding of the FCS-BOK, the authors suggest a strategic integration into students' program area of study. Students must engage in systematic, diverse, and recurring applied experiences with children, families, and communities in their respective specialty area contexts from freshman
through senior years. The current project builds upon previous work (Lee et al., 2015; Walker et al., 2015) with a more narrow, specific focus on one family and consumer sciences (FCS) program area: Child Development and Family Studies (CDFS). Whereas the previous project looked at all N.
C. A&T FCS programs, CDFS, CS, FMD, and FNS, this paper aims to examine if the FCS-BOK is infused appropriately and reflected in the CDFS program.

Published: September 2022

INTRODUCTION:

Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) requires maintenance therapy to avoid recurrence. We investigated the efficacy of a second course of proton pump inhibitors (scPPIs) to maintain steroid-induced histological remission (HR) in patients with EoE who had previously failed induction of remission with PPIs.

METHODS:

We retrospectively included 18 patients who achieved HR with topical steroids but could not be maintained on long-term topical steroids. Treatment outcomes were assessed after 12 weeks of scPPIs.

RESULTS:

Most of the patients (67%) maintained HR with high-dose PPI monotherapy at week 12.

DISCUSSION:

scPPIs might work as a maintenance strategy in primary PPI nonresponder EoE patients.

The fluctuations in yield and consequently in production occurred due to climatic adversities in the main producing states of Brazil. Farming has changed over time, and past scenarios have shown high exploitation of natural resources focusing on soil tillage and conventional seeding methods. This study aimed to determine the yield performance of soybean grown under 10 consolidated crop succession systems. The experiment was conducted during the 2018/2019 crop season, before the research project entitled “Sustainable production systems with better use of biological and natural resources, with treatments arranged in a randomized block design and four replications”. The treatments consisted of the following predecessor crops: Avena sativa, Avena strigosa, Triticum aestivum, Secale cereale, Brassica napus, Raphanus sativus, Avena strigosa + Raphanus sativus + Vicia sativa, Fallow, Avena strigosa + Lolium multiflorum, and Triticum aestivum – Fodder. Soybean was subsequently sown across winter crops. The succession that showed superior yield was Avena strigosa + Lolium multiflorum. This attribute was established by associating taller plants with the maximization of the number of grains per pod, hundred-grain mass, grain mass, and plant dry mass; in contrast, there was a lower emphasis on plant residue. The determining attributes for soybean yield were plant stand, plant height, the number of pods per plant, and total grain mass, with contrasts among groups composed of the succession of Avena sativa, Avena strigosa, Triticum aestivum, Secale cereale, and Brassica napus, distanced from Raphanus sativus, Avena strigosa + Raphanus sativus + Vicia sativa, Fallow, Avena strigosa + Lolium multiflorum, and Triticum aestivum - Fodder.

This study aims to analyze the factors that influence Indonesia's trade with APEC member countries. Research period between 2011-2017. The method used in conducting the analysis is the Gravity Model. To support the conclusion of the gravity model, the Trade Conformity Index and the Grubel Lloyd Index are also calculated. Based on the results of the study showed that Indonesia's trade with APEC member countries was positively influenced by GDP, exchange rates, and Trade Conformity Index, while economic distance and population had a negative effect. It shows that Indonesia's trade with APEC member countries has an inter-industry trade pattern which is indicated by a positive sign of the coefficient of TCI and relatively low GLI values. But it should be noted that quite a lot of Indonesian commodities have Grubel Lloyd Index above 0.50 which means they are already in the category of intra-industry trade.

Many local governments have discretionary spending (such as grants) on judicatory institutions such as police, attorney, and court. The grant potentially creates a bond between local government and judicatory institutions, reduces the objectivity of law enforcement, and hence affects regulatory compliance. This study attempts to identify whether or not grants on regional judicatory institutions are correlated with local government compliance in recovering regional finance loss. Using 2,426 observations from 508 districts in Indonesia from 2014-2018, we find that grants on judicatory institutions are negatively correlated with local government compliance in recovering the regional financial loss. This study calls for improvement in regulations in grant spending to improve the governance of the local government budget.

The government has carried out infrastructure development in various regions of Indonesia to encourage regional growth and address development inequalities. In Presidential Decree No. 48 In 2014, the Province of South Sulawesi (Sulsel), which is in the Eastern Region of Indonesia (KTI), received an infrastructure investment value of IDR 39.47 trillion consisting of 33 projects. This paper analyzes the impact of infrastructure investment in South Sulawesi using the IRIO 2015 table to see how much impact it has on output, added value, and income for South Sulawesi, other provinces in Sulawesi Island, the KTI region, and the West Region of Indonesia (KBI). From the results, it can be seen that the total impact of infrastructure development is mostly received by South Sulawesi itself, but the rest of the impact flows are more received by provinces in the KBI region than KTI. To increase the flow of impact to KTI areas, local governments must strengthen economic cooperation between regions in KTI areas so that the economic sector in other regions can be lifted

Published: September 2022

Perubahan iklim yang disebabkan oleh emisi CO2 pada saat ini tengah menjadi perhatian utama oleh dunia internasional karena kondisi suhu bumi yang terus mengalami peningkatan. Indonesia merupakan salah satu negara yang memproduksi emisi CO2 terbesar di dunia. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis hubungan kausalitas antara variabel pariwisata, konsumsi energi fosil, pertumbuhan ekonomi, dan emisi CO2 yang ada di Indonesia. Teori Kuznet digunakan sebagai teori dasar penelitian ini, dimana hubungan antara pertumbuhan ekonomi dengan kerusakan lingkungan membentuk kurva U terbalik. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian adalah Vector Error Correction Model (VECM), dengan data periode tahun 1971 hingga 2019. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa baik variabel emisi CO2 dan pertumbuhan ekonomi memiliki hubungan satu arah terhadap konsumsi energi fosil, sementara itu variabel konsumsi energi fosil memiliki hubungan satu arah terhadap pariwisata. Hal ini mengindikasikan setiap kenaikan emisi CO2 dan pertumbuhan ekonomi akan diiringi kenaikan konsumsi energi fosil, dan kenaikan konsumsi fosil akan meningkatkan pariwisata. Implikasinya, pertumbuhan ekonomi Indonesia yang secara langsung juga bersumber dari sektor pariwisata ini, seharusnya tidak diabaikan begitu saja karena berdampak pada kerusakan lingkungan yang semakin parah akibat kenaikan emisi CO2 dan konsumsi energi fosil. Program mitigasi dan pemulihan lingkungan diperlukan guna mendukung pertumbuhan ekonomi yang ramah lingkungan dan berkelanjutan.

This research is motivated by the occurrence of twin deficit in Indonesia that have occurred since 2012. Twin deficit is a phenomenon where the budget deficit occurs simultaneously with the current account deficit. The relationship between the government budget and the current account is explained through components in the APBN and the current account balance. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the correlation between the budget deficit and the current account deficit. This study uses time series data for the period 1990-2019, obtained from Kementrian Keuangan Republik Indonesia, Bank Indonesia and World Bank publications. The method used in this study is the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) regression method to see the short-term and long-term relationships of budget deficit to the current account deficit. The results of this study indicate that there is a correlation between the budget deficit and the current account deficit. This is indicated by the empirical results which show that significantly the budget deficit has a correlation with the current account deficit in the short and long term. In the period 1990-1999, the budget balance and the current account showed no correlation. The current account deficit in that period was mainly due to investment patterns. The existence of a balance relationship between the budget balance and the current account is shown in the 2000-2019 period, during which Indonesia implemented a deficit budget system.
