Neste artigo, apresentaremos um diálogo subjetivo entre dois personagens emblemáticos na atualidade, com corpos em fricção: Paulo Freire e Marielle Franco, que teve como objetivo a produção artística e cultural através da performance audiovisual com um manifesto poético sobre os pensamentos do primeiro e a vida da segunda, a partir da “metodologia do encontro”. O resultado deste trabalho foi a potência do encontro entre o simbólico de Marielle Franco e a perspectiva de Paulo Freire, nos demonstrando o quanto (sobre)viver é um ato político! Estes personagens deixaram suas vidas e obras como legado, ou melhor dizendo, sementes.
ENTRE A NOBREZA DO TALENTO E A DOS PERGAMINHOS: A SOCIEDADE PORTUGUESA EM TRANSFORMAÇÃO SOB A ÓTICA DE GUIOMAR TORRESÃO EM UMA ALMA DE MULHER
Authors: Mariano Juliana De Souza
Published: October 2021

Neste artigo, analisamos o livro Uma alma de mulher, de Guiomar Torresão, publicado em 1869. Sob uma costumeira história de amor impossível, escondem-se importantes reflexões não só sobre o campo dos afetos, mas também sobre uma sociedade em transformação, composta por conflitos de classe e gênero. O estudo da obra se baseará, portanto, na análise desses conflitos que permeiam, em maior ou menor grau, a narrativa.

Este trabalho pretende refletir sobre as expressões da literatura brasileira contemporânea de autoria feminina a partir do conto “Mestre Goshka” (1996), da escritora catarinense Adriana Lunardi. Pretendemos observar, sobretudo, em que medida o projeto estético desta narrativa concorre para romper as barreiras instituídas nos campos estético e ideológico. Refletiremos, ainda, sobre como se associam as manifestações da linguagem e da literatura a elementos da história e da cultura nas configurações das identidades individuais e coletiva das mulheres.
O HARDBOILED FEMINISTA DE PATRÍCIA MELO
Authors: Souza de Morais Raquel
Published: October 2021

Os estudos sobre escrita literária e representação feminina têm se desenvolvido bastante nas últimas décadas, através, sobretudo, da crítica feminista. Diante dessa produção ampla e diversificada, o presente trabalho busca abordar a intersecção entre literatura de autoria feminina e ficção detetivesca através da análise do romance Fogo-Fátuo (2014), de Patrícia Melo. A referida autora se destaca como uma das mais conhecidas e consolidadas escritoras desse tipo de literatura no Brasil e desde o início de sua carreira em 1994, tornou-se conhecida pela escrita permeada de violência e de linguagem rápida e crua. Ao criar uma detetive mulher no romance em análise, Melo realiza uma abordagem que subverte a tradicional vertente do hardboiled da ficção detetivesca, trazendo uma perspectiva feminista. Dessa forma, o artigo propõe uma análise da construção da personagem principal e das questões de violência de gênero que podem ser percebidas ao longo da narrativa. Para tal, temos um aporte crítico-teórico em Dalcastagnè (2008), Scaggs (2005), Mandel (1988) e Bourdieu (2014).

The article considers theoretical and practical aspects of the process of formation of communications at an industrial enterprise. The main task of communication policy for enterprises is not only to provide the necessary information about goods and services, but also to create commitment and trust in the enterprise, to establish long-term relationships with customers. It is substantiated that in modern conditions of unstable external communication environment assess the situation, form goals and objectives, identify problems in the development of the enterprise and in general become a strategic resource for the management of an industrial enterprise. It is proved that in order to improve the system of communicative management at the enterprise it is necessary to clearly define the need for information of each structural subdivision and each workplace, to regulate information flows in accordance with the solved tasks; there must be interaction between managers and subordinates; organization of an effective feedback system; introduction of a system for collecting proposals; information messages of the enterprise administration; use of modern information technologies. A system of communicative management of an industrial enterprise is proposed, which provides the enterprise with opportunities for effective exchange of information between managers and employees to achieve the main goal of the organization.

The features of management in the system of coordination of decisions at enterprises are considered. The relevance of reflexive management in the system of coordination of decisions at the enterprise has been determined. The analysis of the conceptual component of reflexive management processes in the decision coordination system is carried out. It is concluded that the development of appropriate mechanisms of reflexive management at enterprises should be based on the study of the system of psychological characteristics of decision-making by subjects to ensure an increase in controllability of both personnel and the enterprise as a whole. The features of management in the system of decision coordination at enterprises are determined, which necessitate the construction of conceptual provisions of reflexive management of decision coordination at enterprises within the framework of the above definitions. The implementation of reflexive management in the system for coordinating decisions at the enterprise will reduce the time for developing management decisions, reduce risk and uncertainty in the process of coordinating decisions, and increase the efficiency of the enterprise, using the full potential of production interactions of workers.

Is the “Ukrainian cross” a verdict for Donbas 4.0?
Authors:   Institute of Industrial Economics of the NAS of Ukraine, Vyshnevskyi О.
Published: October 2021

The study aims to formalize the problems of Industry 4.0 formation in the Donbas from the standpoint of evolutionary economics and substantiate the directions for their solution. The general theoretical foundations of the work are based on a combination of the principles of free will and historical determinism. From the standpoint of free will in society there are two sets: (1) subjects, (2) objects. Subjects are characterized by the presence of (A) a strategy and (B) a resource (for its implementation). From the standpoint of historical determinism, certain scenarios and laws of interaction operate in the world (within the framework of the world-system approach; institutional and evolutionary economics). Within the framework of progressive economics and technological development (evolutionary determinism), significant problems are observed in the development of V-VI waves of innovation in the Donbas. The main reason for both the technological backwardness and the ongoing conflict in Donbas is the behavior model of Ukrainian and foreign large capitals. The main difference between the behavior model of Ukrainian capital is that it views the state as an instrument of budget redistribution and privatization in its favor of state property, that is why the formula “money” - “power” - “money plus” is constantly being reproduced. As a result, concerning the state power, domestic capital is divided into “pro-government” and “oppositional” capital. Large foreign capital sees its own government as a tool for lobbying its interests in the international arena. On the territory of Ukraine, there are conditional aggregates: "western" and "eastern" capitals. The combination of the activities of internal and external actors in Ukraine forms the "Ukrainian cross" configuration, within which two basic contradictions are recorded: between "pro-government" and "opposition" capital, on the one hand, and a group of "western" and "eastern" capitals, on the other. The regime of constant confrontation determines the focus of all groups of actors to extract rent and not investment profit. The conflict in Donbas, which began in 2014, not only worsened the structure of the economy (its compliance with Industry 4.0) both in the territories “controlled” and “not controlled” by the central government, but also reduced investment activity. The main direction for changing the situation in Donbas, from the standpoint of implementing the principle of free will by representatives of big business, is the transformation of the profile of domestic capital to consolidate its negotiating power in the foreign arena and ensure a peaceful settlement of the ongoing conflict.

Dinoxin B Withanolide from Datura inoxia Mill as an Effective Phytocompound Against Urinary Tract Infection causing Staphylococcus aureus
Authors: George Ruby , Mathur Priti , Tandon Chandni
Published: October 2021

Background: Dinoxin B Withanolide was isolated from Datura inoxia and identified with its cytotoxic activity. But its antibacterial properties are not yet evaluated. We have previously reported the broad-spectrum antibacterial property of Dinoxin B Withanolide extracted from D.inoxia on standard strains. Objective: This research has focused to evaluate the efficacy of Dinoxin B Withanolide against infectious Staphylococcus aureus, including resistant strains. Methods: Electrospray Ionization-Mass Spectrometry is used to depict the presence of Dinoxin B withanolide from the chromatographic ethanolic leaf fraction. Antibacterial activity of different concentrations of Dinoxin B(12500-100000 μg/ml) was assessed using the agar diffusion, macro broth dilution, and time-kill assay methods. Docking studies and Drug likeness properties were analyzed. Result: Electrospray Ionization-Mass Spectrometry depicted the presence of Dinoxin B. All the isolates were susceptible to Dinoxin B within the range of 15±0.5mm to 24±0.5mm, and the bacteria were susceptible at a concentration rate of ≤12.5mg/ml. Time-kill assay showed that 25mg/ml of Dinoxin B displayed the highest inhibitory activity after four hours. The MBC values were compatible with the cidal concentration as seen in the time-kill study's growth curve. Computer-aided techniques resulted in a good Docking score towards Quorum-signaling Sar A protein (-7.82)and Penicillin Binding Protein(-6.9). Conclusion: Dinoxin B with its bactericidal properties and significant affinity towards Quorum-signaling Sar A protein and Penicillin Binding Protein can be considered as an effective bioactive compound against Methicillin Resistance Staphylococcus aureus.

Authors: Attinà Giorgio , Tepedino Raffaele , Ruggiero Antonio
Published: October 2021

Tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) can be a life-threatening complication that occurs following the onset of chemotherapy treatment, most commonly in association with high-grade lymphoproliferative pathologies such as acute lymphoblastic leukemia and Burkitt lymphoma. The massive cell lysis caused by cytotoxic therapy leads to the rapid release in the blood of intracelullary products and the onset of severe metabolic and electrolytic complications (hyperkalemia, hyperphosphatemia, hypocalcemia and hyperuricemia) upto the acute renal failure. This article describes the incidence and pathophysiological basis of TLS, focusing on the new therapeutic strategies implemented over the last few years, especially with regard to the treatment of hyperuricemia. In particular, it highlights the characteristics of a recent drug, Rasburicase, as a safe and effective alternative, compared to traditional allopurinol therapy, for prophylaxis and treatment of children with hyperuricemia induced by chemotherapy.

Published: October 2021

The economic growth and information technology leads to the development of Internet of Things (IoT) industry and has become the emerging field of research. Several intrusion detection techniques are introduced but the detection of intrusion and malicious activities poses a challenging task. This paper devises a novel method, namely the Water Moth Search algorithm (WMSA) algorithm, for training Deep Recurrent Neural Network (Deep RNN) to detect malicious network activities. The WMSA algorithm is newly devised by combining Water Wave optimization (WWO) and the Moth Search Optimization (MSO). The pre-processing is employed for the removal of redundant data. Then, the feature selection is devised using the Wrapper approach, then using the selected features; the Deep RNN classifier effectively detects the intrusion using the selected features. The proposed WMSA-based Deep RNN showed improved results with maximal accuracy, specificity, and sensitivity of 0.96, 0.973 and 0.960.

Abstract. Putra RD, Siringiringo RM, Suryanti A, Sari NWP, Sinaga M, Hidayati NV, Hukom FD, Abrar M, Makatipu PC, Sianturi R, Ilham Y. 2021. Impact of marine protected areas on economical important coral reef fish communities: An evaluation of the biological monitoring of coral reef fish in Anambas Islands, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 22: 4169-4181. The use of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) is the core strategy to reduce the impact of the anthropogenic stressor on marine fisheries, especially in reducing the overexploitation of fisheries resources and destructive fishing in which this plays a significant role in the conservation of marine biodiversity and populations. We conducted a study over 4 years to evaluate and assess the impact of MPAs on economically important reef fish in the Anambas Islands. We compared density, size, biomass, and diversity indices from the seven families of coral reef fish (Acanthuridae, Haemulidae, Lethrinidae, Lutjanidae, Scaridae, Siganidae, and Serranidae) using Underwater Visual Census (UVC) with a total of 12 MPAs stations (70-m transect). Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) was used to evaluate and assess reserve protection on the coral reef fish, and several ecological indices were used to compare the potential change of economically coral reef fish diversity. We also measured the rate of change in coral cover to identify the effectiveness of the MPAs. After 4 years of studies, our result showed that there was an increase of economical reefs. Fish diversity, density, and biomass increased by 244%, 257%, and 179% respectively. There was no significant difference in the rate of coral cover change among MPAs stations. Economical coral reef fish in Anambas Islands were restored in marine reserve overtimes after fisheries restriction protection, but this does not change the rate of coral cover through time. In addition, the government managed and increased community awareness that significantly influenced decreasing destructive fishing practices and overexploited reef fish species in Anambas Islands but no change in coral cover. The MPAs environmental condition and natural disturbance, including thermal stress and high sedimentation, play a key role in coral cover recovery besides fisheries restriction in the MPAs area.

Abstract. Asmoro PP, Dadang, Pudjianto, Winasa IW. 2021. Screening insectary refugia plants that increase the performance of Diadegma semiclausum Hellen (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae) against diamondback moth larvae. Biodiversitas 22: 4254-4260. Habitat manipulation through the planting of insectary refugia plants is one way of controlling pests. These refugia plants serve as the source of nutrients that improve the fitness of parasitoid against insect pests. In the cabbage agroecosystem, the presence of refugia plants is expected to benefit the parasitoid D. semiclausum. This study aimed to select insectary refugia plants beneficial for the D. semiclausum in term of attracting and increasing their longevity, and parasitization ability against P. xylostella larvae. Ten species of refugia plants were used in this study, i.e., Ageratum conyzoides, Galinsoga parviflora, Sphagneticola trilobata, Synedrella nodiflora, Portulaca oleracea, Rorippa indica, Brassica rapa, Apium graveolens, Ocimum basilicum, and Arachis pintoi. The methods used in this study included testing the response of the imago olfactory to refugia plants and its effect on the longevity and parasitization level. The results showed that of the ten species of investigated, R. indica and A. graveolens were the most attractive for the presence of parasitoids. The two refugia plants could also increase the longevity and parasitization rate compared to the water treatment. R. indica and A. graveolens are recommended as refuge plants in the cabbage agroecosystems to control P. xylostella.

Abstract. Basith A, Abinawanto, Kusrini E, Yasman. 2021. Genetic diversity analysis and phylogenetic reconstruction of groupers Epinephelus spp. from Madura Island, Indonesia based on partial sequence of CO1 gene. Biodiversitas 22: 4282-4290. Groupers populations in Indonesia, particularly from Madura Island, East Java are indicated to be over-fished, thereby requiring data collection of more accurate genetic resources as an important step for grouper conservation. A total of 14 samples of the Epinepheplus groupers were obtained from the fish landing port on Madura Island. The 617 bp CO1 gene sequence was utilized for genetic diversity analysis and phylogenetic tree reconstruction. Genetic diversity is based on the value of haplotype diversity (Hd) and nucleotide diversity (?). Reconstruction of the phylogenetic tree includes neighbor-joining (NJ) implementing K2P substitution model, while maximum likelihood (ML) is conducted by implementing HKY+G+I substitution model, both of which were evaluated by employing a bootstrap of 1000 replications. Analysis of genetic distance between species indicated that the farthest distance between E. heniochus and E. fasciatus was 0.189, while the closest distance between E. erythrurus and E. ongus was 0.099. Intrapopulation genetic diversity indicated a high value with details of Hd=0.978 and ?=0.12107. Furthermore, NJ and ML phylogenetic tree demonstrated similar topology in the observed Epinephelus spp. obtained from Madura Island grouped into 7 clades, that is Epinephelus coioides, E. bleekeri, E. areolatus, E. erythrurus, E. heniochus, E. fasciatus, and E. ongus.

Abstract. Dirgantara AP, Megantara EN, Husodo T, Febrianto P, Wulandari I, Shanida SS. 2021. The existence of Asian small-clawed otter (Aonyx cinereus Illiger, 1815) in the UCPS Hydropower, Cianjur, West Java. Biodiversitas 22: 4391-4401. Little information about the existence of small-clawed otters (Aonyx cinereus) in Indonesia is available. Small-clawed otter is the top predator and biological indicator of wetland health. However, the small-clawed otter population in the world has decreased due to anthropogenic factors. This study aims to reveal 1) estimate the population size of small-clawed otters and 2) the small-clawed otter signs at the UCPS Hydropower construction site, Cianjur, West Java. This study used a qualitative approach in February-April 2017. Sign surveys (feces, footprints, leftovers, and dens) and camera trapping were applied in this study. There were 32 signs with details of 21 feces, eight footprints, and three dens. The estimation of small-clawed otter population size at UCPS Hydropower ranges from 5-14 individuals in total scattered in the Citali-Cisokan, Cilengkong, and Cirumamis rivers. In addition, the discovery of infant and bedding repair activities shows that the habitat in the UCPS Hydropower area supports the daily needs of small-clawed otters, especially in terms of breeding and shelter. Further studies are needed regarding the impact of the UCPS Hydropower construction on the existence of small-clawed otters, especially in the overlapping between small-clawed otter habitat and the UCPS Hydropower construction sites, by monitoring and making wildlife management policies.

Abstract. Indraswari A, Suardana IW, Haryanto A, Widiasih DA. 2021. Molecular analysis of pathogenic Escherichia coli isolated from cow meat in Yogyakarta, Indonesia using 16S rRNA gene. Biodiversitas 22: 4566-4573. Meat has been recognized as a major source of foodborne disease and a public health problem. The characteristics of meat become an ideal growth medium for various microorganisms if not handled properly. Pathogenic Escherichia coli is one of the foodborne disease agents that causes diarrhea. Identification of pathogenic E. coli isolated from cow meat needs to be done. This research aims to study nucleotide sequence of 16S rRNA gene of pathogenic E. coli isolated from cow meat in Yogyakarta, Indonesia using Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). These fifteen isolates have been detected for eae target gene, then amplification of the 16S rRNA gene was carried out using primers 27F and 1492R. Phylogenetic tree reconstruction was performed on the fifteen isolates of pathogenic E. coli to figure out the relationship to reference strains available at the GenBank. Results show that nucleotide sequence among the fifteen isolates from different traditional markets in Yogyakarta, Indonesia and reference strains are very similar. The fifteen isolates have small genetic distance to the reference strains, and these fifteen isolates are also in the same clade with reference strains. This research shows that the fifteen isolates under investigation are closely related to the reference strains, which is Shiga-toxin producing E. coli (STEC). People should pay more attention in processing food stock, especially cow meat. Further research may focus on determining the strain of those fifteen isolates.

Abstract. Karmini, Karyati, Widiati KY. 2021. The ecological and economic values of a 50 years old secondary forest in East Kalimantan, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 22: 4597-4607. Secondary forests in the tropics are often ignored since they are assumed to have low ecological functions while on the other hand the economic values have been reduced. This study aimed to analyze the ecological and economic values of a 50-year secondary forest in East Kalimantan that experienced several various land-use changes. The ecological aspects analyzed were stand structure, floristic composition, and species diversity. Economic aspects include log prices, logging costs, profit margins, and stumpage values. A vegetation survey of woody trees with a diameter at breast height of more than 5 cm was carried out on ten plots measuring 20 m × 20 m each. A total of 437 trees belonging to 38 species, 30 genera, and 19 families were recorded with Moraceae and Euphorbiaceae were the most dominant families with Family Important Value (FIV) of 86.79. The three most dominant species were Macaranga motleyana (IVi of 50.95), Artocarpus elasticus (IVi of 34.41), and Symplocos fasciculata (IVi of 31.46). The trees in the study plot have a diversity index of 1.33, dominance index of 0.07, evenness index of 0.37, and species richness of 6.09. The average logging cost, logs price, lumber price, profit margin, and stumpage value at secondary forest were USD69.43 m-3, USD44.63 m-3, USD100.03 m-3, USD10.30 m-3, and USD28.73 ha-1, respectively. The 50 years old secondary forests in East Kalimantan have biodiversity, especially trees that have economic value, therefore their existence needs to be preserved and their use is carried out by maintaining and increasing biodiversity.
Iatrogenic Anterior Tibial Artery Pseudoaneurysm – A Rare Case Report
Authors: Goyal Nishant D , Gautam Vinay Kumar , Panchnadikar Vijay M , Jeyaraman Madhan , Valsangka Nikhil , Shringeri Ajay Satish
Published: October 2021

Introduction: Interlocking tibia nail fixation for tibia shaft fracture treatment is one of the most commonest procedures performed in orthopedic trauma practices. We report one such case of a rare complication of anterior tibial artery (ATA) pseudo-aneurysm caused by the proximal coronal locking bolt performed by an unusual entry from lateral to medial side during shaft of tibia fracture fixation.
Case Report: A 86- years old female sustained a road traffic accident and was diagnosed with a closed tibia shaft fracture of the right leg for which she underwent intramedullary interlocking nail IMIL nailing elsewhere. She presented to us three 3 weeks after primary surgery with persistent pain and swelling in the right leg proximally. We investigated and diagnosed her as having a pseudoaneurysm of the Anterior Tibial Artery on color Doppler and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) angiography. The pseudoaneurysm of ATA was clipped without any complications. To avoid the rupture of the pseudoaneurysm during manipulation of nail and bolts, their positions were not changed as they were supporting the fracture well and the fracture was also not united at that time.
Conclusion: Though Although interlocking nailing of tibia shaft fracture is a commonly performed procedure, it can lead to disastrous vascular complications if the procedure is not performed with utmost care. ATA injury by proximal locking bolts of the tibia nail mandates the need for reconsideration of the nail design with better screw hole positions. We recommend preferring standard AO manual instructions for proximal tibia locking bolt direction.

Osteochondrosis of humeral capitellum though rare is a known condition in young children. High level of awareness is required to adequately diagnose and treat appropriately
Authors: Chavda Sumant , Abeid Khaled Abou , Alhajri Khawla Khaled , Hasan Noora Husain Ali
Published: October 2021

Introduction: Osteochondrosis of humeral capitellum (Panner’s disease) is a rare condition. Very few cases are reported in the literature and may be overlooked or misdiagnosed. Most cases are unilateral in distribution and occur in young boys during the first decade of life. It is often difficult to distinguish osteochondrosis from osteochondritis dissecans of the humeral capitellum that occurs in older children and adolescents in the second decade of life.
Case Report: We describe a case of a 6-year-old boy who presented with pain, subtle swelling and limited extension in his right elbow following a fall. Diagnosis of Panner’s disease was made 2 weeks later on follow-up based on classical features on plain radiograph of joint effusion, irregular delineation of the articular contour, and faint sclerosis of the capitellum with a radiolucent line in the subchondral bone. The patient had uneventful full functional recovery with conservative treatment: Rest, temporary immobilization, and subsequent remobilization.
Conclusion: Osteochondrosis of humeral capitellum though rare is a known condition. It may be overlooked or misdiagnosed. High degree of awareness is required and diagnosis can be made with utmost care based on the age of presentation, clinical signs and clearly recognizable plain radiographic features of joint effusion, irregular articular outline with radiolucent line in subchondral bone and faint sclerosis of capitellum.
Keywords: Osteochondrosis, humerus capitellum, Panner’s disease.

Published: October 2021

Introduction: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction using hamstring tendon graft is a commonly performed orthopedic surgery. Lateral femoral condyle fracture through the femoral tunnel is a rare complication following ACL reconstruction. These cases are reported to be managed in two stages, fracture fixation by open reduction and internal fixation with bone grafting of the femoral tunnel, followed by revision ACL reconstruction after the fracture union.
Case Report: A 41-year-old male Kabaddi player underwent right knee arthroscopic ACL reconstruction following an ACL tear in January 2021, sustained a road traffic accident 7 weeks later and developed a lateral femoral condyle fracture. The graft was intact and trapped into the fracture site making fracture reduction difficult. The graft was lax due to the fixed loop button being trapped in the fracture. The patient was treated in a single stage by arthroscopy assisted fracture reduction and fixation with ACL graft salvage and reinforced suspensory femoral graft fixation to plate suspensory fixation.
Conclusion: This case is a rare presentation of lateral condyle fracture after ACL reconstruction and both the issues are managed in a single stage with the help of detailed surgical planning, using utmost arthroscopy skills and keeping all the options of fixation devices ready on the table during the surgery.

Fixation and Implant Retention of Extracapsular Femoral Neck Periprosthetic Fractures Around Hip Resurfacing Arthroplasty – A Case Series
Authors: Patel Arpit , Ayub Anouska , Iranpour Farhad , Subramanian Padmanabhan
Published: October 2021

Introduction: Background: Extracapsular femoral neck fractures in the presence of a resurfacing hip arthroplasty (RHA) appear to be independent of suboptimal technique during the initial implantation of the RHA and present with a similar etiology as native hip fractures – that is, a fragility fracture related to pathological or age-related osteoporosis, as a consequence of trauma. In the presence of a well-fixed and previously well-functioning RHA, the options for management include revision arthroplasty or open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF). In the absence of loosening through mechanisms of wear, infection, metallosis, or suboptimal prosthesis positioning, many authors have advocated ORIF with implant retention. However, there is often debate regarding the use of total hip arthroplasty in these cases
Case Series: The authors conducted a thorough assessment of the literature followed by a retrospective review of outcomes for three patients treated by ORIF with implant retention for extracapsular femoral neck fractures around a RHA, using a standardized technique. All patients were independently mobile and active with well-fixed and well-functioning RHAs before the date of injury. All patients suffered low-energy trauma resulting in the fracture. There were no intraoperative or perioperative complications. All patients achieved full weight-bearing status and independent mobility. Two patients achieved radiographic union and returned to full range of movement and independent mobilization comparable to their preoperative state. One patient was lost to follow-up.
Conclusion: The authors believe that fixation of extracapsular proximal femoral fractures distal to a well-fixed, well-functioning RHA is a good management option in an independent and active patient. A higher level of evidence is needed to investigate the surgical management options of these injuries comparing osteosynthesis with revision arthroplasty.

Potential predictors of detrusor underactivity in a urology outpatient clinic: a 5-year single center experience study
Authors: Soefiannagoya Soedarman  , Harrina Erlinati Rahardjo
Published: October 2021

BACKGROUND Detrusor underactivity (DU) is diagnosed using urodynamics, which caused by a combination of strength and duration of the bladder muscle and resulted in prolonged bladder emptying. Invasive urodynamics, which are limited in many clinical settings, should be performed efficiently in high-risk patients to reduce the risk of emerging complications during and after the procedure. Therefore, this study was aimed to identify the potential predictors of DU for limited clinical settings.

METHODS This retrospective study was retrieved from the medical records of patients who underwent urodynamics in the Department of Urology, Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital from 2015 to 2020. Age, sex, bladder capacity, bladder compliance, bladder outlet obstruction, history of stroke, diabetes mellitus (DM) status, and neurological abnormalities were analyzed using chi-square and Mann–Whitney to examine the potential predictors of DU. The odds ratio (OR) of each factor was also calculated. Logistic regression was furtherly used for the analysis.

RESULTS A total of 649 patients were included in this study. Male (OR = 1.74, 95% CI = 1.28–2.38) and DM patients (OR = 2.06, 95% CI = 1.36–3.11) had a higher risk of DU, while bladder outlet obstruction (OR = 0.54, 95% CI = 0.39–0.76) was the protective factor of DU. Furthermore, multivariate analysis showed that the potential predictors of DU were male (OR = 1.903, 95% CI = 1.37–2.64), DM (OR= 1.899, 95% CI = 1.22–2.95), and bladder outlet obstruction (OR = 0.32, 95% CI = 0.32–0.65).

CONCLUSIONS Age, sex, bladder outlet obstruction, and history of DM could become the predictors of DU.
Alternative constraints for improved multiplane hologram generation
Authors: Velez-Zea Alejandro , Barrera-Ramirez John Fredy , Torroba Roberto
Published: October 2021

In this work, we introduce a modified hologram plane constraint to improve the accuracy of the global Gerchberg–Saxton (GGS) algorithm used for multiplane phase-only hologram generation. This constraint consists of a modified phase factor that depends on the amplitude of the field in the hologram plane. We demonstrate that this constraint produces an increase in the mean correlation coefficient between the reconstructed planes from a multiplane hologram and the corresponding amplitude targets for each plane. Furthermore, this constraint can be applied together with a mixed constraint in the reconstruction planes, leading to a more uniform and controllable reproduction of a target intensity distribution. To confirm the validity of our proposal, we show numerical and experimental results for multiplane holograms with six discrete planes, using both high and low contrast targets. For the experimental results, we implement a holographic projection scheme based on a phase-only spatial light modulator.
See-through aerial display using a dihedral corner reflector array and hologram mirrors
Authors: Nakao Isamu , Sakamoto Takumi , Yamaguchi Masahiro
Published: October 2021

In this study, we reveal a novel aerial display system, to the best of our knowledge, that combines volume hologram mirrors with a dihedral corner reflector array (DCRA). The suggested aerial display has a see-through capability, which allows for a new design of aerial displays by combining with other types of displays. Furthermore, the virtual image, which frequently disrupts the observation of aerial images, can be suppressed by the Bragg condition of the volume hologram. The color dispersion in the holograms is efficiently compensated by employing features of the DCRA. The findings of preliminary experiments are demonstrated using a DCRA device and full-color hologram mirrors.
3D image reconstruction of terahertz computed tomography at sparse angles by total variation minimization

Published: October 2021

Continuous-wave terahertz computed tomography (THz-CT) is an important three-dimensional imaging method for probing the profile and inner properties of a sample’s structure. We applied the total variation (TV) minimization iterative algorithm to squeeze 75% data acquisition time of THz-CT without the loss of reconstruction fidelity. The imaging system is built based on a 278.6 GHz avalanche diode source. A zero-order Bessel beam is generated by an axicon, for which the intensity profile remains essentially propagation invariant within the non-diffracting zone. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by using three optically opaque objects. The reconstruction results show that the TV-minimization algorithm can effectively suppress noise, artefacts, and shape distortion created in sparse angle reconstruction.
Rapid increase in snake dietary diversity and complexity following the end-Cretaceous mass extinction
Authors: Grundler Michael C. , Rabosky Daniel L.
Published: October 2021

The Cenozoic marked a period of dramatic ecological opportunity in Earth history due to the extinction of non-avian dinosaurs as well as to long-term physiographic changes that created new biogeographic theaters and new habitats. Snakes underwent massive ecological diversification during this period, repeatedly evolving novel dietary adaptations and prey preferences. The evolutionary tempo and mode of these trophic ecological changes remain virtually unknown, especially compared with co-radiating lineages of birds and mammals that are simultaneously predators and prey of snakes. Here, we assemble a dataset on snake diets (34,060 observations on the diets of 882 species) to investigate the history and dynamics of the multidimensional trophic niche during the global radiation of snakes. Our results show that per-lineage dietary niche breadths remained remarkably constant even as snakes diversified to occupy disparate outposts of dietary ecospace. Rapid increases in dietary diversity and complexity occurred in the early Cenozoic, and the overall rate of ecospace expansion has slowed through time, suggesting a potential response to ecological opportunity in the wake of the end-Cretaceous mass extinction. Explosive bursts of trophic innovation followed colonization of the Nearctic and Neotropical realms by a group of snakes that today comprises a majority of living snake diversity. Our results indicate that repeated transformational shifts in dietary ecology are important drivers of adaptive radiation in snakes and provide a framework for analyzing and visualizing the evolution of complex ecological phenotypes on phylogenetic trees.
Mediation model with a categorical exposure and a censored mediator with application to a genetic study
Authors: Wang Jian , Ning Jing , Shete Sanjay
Published: October 2021

Mediation analysis is a statistical method for evaluating the direct and indirect effects of an exposure on an outcome in the presence of a mediator. Mediation models have been widely used to determine direct and indirect contributions of genetic variants in clinical phenotypes. In genetic studies, the additive genetic model is the most commonly used model because it can detect effects from either recessive or dominant models (or any model in between). However, the existing approaches for mediation model cannot be directly applied when the genetic model is additive (e.g. the most commonly used model for SNPs) or categorical (e.g. polymorphic loci), and thus modification to measures of indirect and direct effects is warranted. In this study, we proposed overall measures of indirect, direct, and total effects for a mediation model with a categorical exposure and a censored mediator, which accounts for the frequency of different values of the categorical exposure. The proposed approach provides the overall contribution of the categorical exposure to the outcome variable. We assessed the empirical performance of the proposed overall measures via simulation studies and applied the measures to evaluate the mediating effect of a women’s age at menopause on the association between genetic variants and type 2 diabetes.

The taxonomic compositions of marine prokaryotic communities are known to follow seasonal cycles, but functional metagenomic insights into this seasonality is still limited. We analyzed a total of 22 metagenomes collected at 11 time points over a 14-month period from two sites in Sendai Bay, Japan to obtain seasonal snapshots of predicted functional profiles of the non-cyanobacterial prokaryotic community. Along with taxonomic composition, functional gene composition varied seasonally and was related to chlorophyll a concentration, water temperature, and salinity. Spring phytoplankton bloom stimulated increased abundances of putative genes that encode enzymes in amino acid metabolism pathways. Several groups of functional genes, including those related to signal transduction and cellular communication, increased in abundance during the mid- to post-bloom period, which seemed to be associated with a particle-attached lifestyle. Alternatively, genes in carbon metabolism pathways were generally more abundant in the low chlorophyll a period than the bloom period. These results indicate that changes in trophic condition associated with seasonal phytoplankton succession altered the community function of prokaryotes. Our findings on seasonal changes of predicted function provide fundamental information for future research on the mechanisms that shape marine microbial communities.
