Authors: Gladei Mihai
Published: December 2023

In the last decades the frequency of natural disrupting phenomenas amplifies at global level. This affects the normal development of grapevine plants and the quantity and quality of harvest. The existing grapevine varieties of Vitis Vinifera cannot totally assure a good and qualitative yield in climate change conditions. A different approach to assure this needs, are the interspecific hybrids with Muscadinia Rotundifolia Michx. The interspecific hybrids have a high genetical plasticity and adaptability to climate factors. This hybrids can be grown from cuttings avoiding all the expensive grafting process due to their tolerancy to the main grapevine pest Phyloxera Vastatrix.

The evaluation of some polyvalent biochemical indicators under optimal conditions and heat or drought highlighted specific aspects if these plants came from parents infected with Tobacco Mosaic Virus (TMV) or Tomato Aspermy Virus (TAV). Thus, depending on the genotype, in both infected plants and their descendants, the POX values were usually higher or lower than the control group. The origin of the plants (control, TMV, TAV) had the largest contribution in the variability of H2O2 and stress for POX, respectively 74,1 and 23,6 %, and the combinations of the factors genotype, stress and origin had a considerable impact on the H2O2 content.

Scientific research was carried out in the leaves of four late varieties of plum, two of foreign origin (Stanley and Prezident) and two of local origin (Udlinenaia and Superprezident). In them was determined the activity of the enzymes peroxidase and catalase. The activity values of the investigated enzymes during the vegetation period changed depending on the metabolic processes in the leaves of the trees that took place in certain phenophases, on the environmental conditions, on the amount of oxidative substances that formed in plant cells under the action of high temperatures, the biological peculiarities of the varieties, as well as the substances used to treat plum trees. In the version of the trees treated with SBA Reglalg and microelements B, Zn, Mn, Mo, the activity of these enzymes was higher than in the control version. The mentioned substances positively influenced the activity of these enzymes during the vegetation period. With the modification of the activity of the enzymes peroxidase and catalase in ontogenesis, we mention their participation in the metabolic processes that correlate with the functions of resistance and adaptation of plants to unfavorable environmental conditions and, consequently, the formation of the harvest and the quality of the fruits.

Published: December 2023

Introduction: Observational data are increasingly seen as a valuable source for integrated care research. Especially since the growing availability of routinely collected data and quasi-experimental methods. The aim of this paper is to describe the potentials and challenges when using observational data for integrated maternity care research, based on our experience from developing and working with the Data-InfrAstructure for ParEnts and childRen (DIAPER).
Methods and Results: We provide a description of DIAPER, which is a linked data-infrastructure on the individual level based on maternity care claims data, quality and utilization of maternity care and data from municipal registries, covering the life course from preconception to adulthood. We then discuss potentials and practical applications of DIAPER such as to evaluate alternative payment models for integrated maternity care, to set the policy agenda regarding postpartum care, to provide insights into value of care and into provider variation, and to evaluate (policy) interventions designed to promote and support integrated maternity care. This is relevant for several stakeholders: policy makers, payers, providers and clients/patients. Based on experiences with DIAPER, we identify remaining challenges: missing data sources (especially self-reported outcomes), suboptimal quality of data, privacy concerns and potential biases introduced during data linkage, and describe how these challenges were tackled within the applications of DIAPER.
Conclusions: With DIAPER we demonstrated that using observational data can be of added value for integrated care research, but also that challenges remain. It is essential to keep exploring and developing the possibilities of observational data and continue the discussions in the scientific community. Learning from each other’s successes and failures will be critical.

The issue of precise crop prediction gained worldwide attention in the midst of food security concerns. In this study, the efficacies of different machine learning (ML) algorithms, i.e., multiple linear regression (MLR), decision tree regression (DTR), random forest regression (RFR), and support vector regression (SVR) are integrated to predict wheat productivity. The performances of ML algorithms are then measured to get the optimized model. The updated dataset is collected from the Crop Reporting Service for various agronomical constraints. Randomized data partitions, hyper-parametric tuning, complexity analysis, cross-validation measures, learning curves, evaluation metrics and prediction errors are used to get the optimized model. ML model is applied using 75% training dataset and 25% testing datasets. RFR achieved the highest R2 value of 0.90 for the training model, followed by DTR, MLR, and SVR. In the testing model, RFR also achieved an R2 value of 0.74, followed by MLR, DTR, and SVR. The lowest prediction error (P.E) is found for the RFR, followed by DTR, MLR, and SVR. K-Fold cross-validation measures also depict that RFR is an optimized model when compared with DTR, MLR and SVR.

Published: December 2023

O trabalho apresenta uma reconstrução paleoambiental, a partir de um testemunho extraído da célula sul da Lagoa dos Patos (Rio Grande do Sul – Brasil), com base em análises de isotópos estáveis de carbono e de oxigênio, realizadas em conchas de moluscos. O testemunho está localizado entre a saída do rio Camaquã e o município de Bojuru. Três zonas distintas foram observadas: uma zona inferior marinha composta pelos moluscos Carycorbula tryoni, Acteocina bidentata e Tawera gayi, mostrando um comportamento espelhado com relação à profundidade entre os valores de δ18O e de δ13C,  uma temperatura média de 17°C e a idade do 14C é de 3876 – 4004 AP a 2,5 m. Uma zona de transição, onde não são encontrados moluscos fósseis, e uma zona superior mixohalina, com o molusco Erodona mactroides, de comportamento concordante entre os valores negativos de δ18O e de δ13C. Nesta zona, a temperatura aumenta em 5°C, chegando a 22°C. A 1,2m, a idade radiocarbono é de 3.054 ± 27 anos AP. A 0,3m de profundidade, o comportamento do δ13C e do δ18O passa a ser estável, refletindo o provável fechamento da Lagoa dos Patos (2.080 AP), pertencente a Série Meghalayan da parte Superior do Holoceno. Este estudo corrobora com a variação do nível do mar e com a história evolutiva da formação de ilhas barreira no litoral sul-brasileiro em função da presença de espécies marinhas na base do testemunho e de espécies mixohalinas no topo.

Essa pesquisa visa caracterizar e interpretar a hidrodinâmica nos dois braços e proximidade da desembocadura do Sistema Estuarino Piraquê-Açu e Piraquê-Mirim, localizado no município de Aracruz, Estado do Espírito Santo. Apesar da sua importância ecológica regional, este sistema estuarino possui histórico de impactos causados por atividades humanas, como pesca, lançamento de esgoto e efluentes de atividades agrícolas e industriais. Dados hidrodinâmicos obtidos com ADCPs e dados físicos da coluna d’água obtidos com CTDs foram coletados simultaneamente ao longo dos ciclos de maré sizígia e quadratura, durante as campanhas chuvosa e seca do ano de 2010, no braço norte e sul, bem como na proximidade da desembocadura. A intensidade das correntes no braço sul foi superior em todas as campanhas amostrais, quando comparadas ao braço norte. Entretanto, a assimetria de maré foi verificada nos dois braços. No braço norte, a mistura vertical foi condicionada pela velocidade das correntes, com tendência de estratificação nos 2 m superficiais durante as quadraturas e mistura da coluna d’água nas sizígias. O braço sul não apresentou estratificação evidente em nenhuma campanha amostral. Próximo à desembocadura ocorreram as maiores salinidades durante o período seco, quando comparadas ao período chuvoso. A coluna d’água apresentou pouca mistura nas campanhas da quadratura e predomínio de mistura durante as sizígias, com correntes de até 1,75 m/s na maré vazante. Os padrões de fluxo residual predominante nas proximidades da desembocadura estão de acordo com a circulação gravitacional clássica com indicação de transporte sedimentar em direção ao oceano nas camadas superficiais e em direção ao interior do estuário nas camadas mais profunda. Também foi observada uma grande influência da batimetria no fluxo residual encontrado na proximidade da desembocadura com a formação de vórtices entre o canal e a margem.
Vulnerabilidade de sistemas estuarinos aos efeitos das mudanças climáticas - uma análise bibliométrica
Authors: Campos Alexandre Vilci , Bonetti Jarbas
Published: December 2023

Estuários são feições costeiras localizadas na interface continente-oceano, apresentando características de ambos os compartimentos. Por estarem estabelecidos em áreas predominantemente planas, propícias à instalação de infraestruturas, historicamente têm sido submetidos a um alto grau de antropização. Isso potencializa a exposição da população residente em seu entorno aos efeitos de inundação e erosão (marinha e fluvial), sobretudo em um cenário de aumento da intensidade e frequência dos eventos extremos provocados pelas mudanças climáticas. Tendo-se isso em consideração, este artigo objetiva analisar a produção científica global relacionada à avaliação da vulnerabilidade de sistemas estuarinos à erosão e inundação, empregando indicadores bibliométricos. Foram avaliados, utilizando o pacote Bibliometrix para R e o software VOSviewer 63 documentos publicados entre os anos de 1992 e 2022 selecionados na base Scopus. Os resultados indicaram que a maior parte dos estudos foi publicada em revistas científicas revisadas por pares e que Reino Unido e Austrália foram os países com maior contribuição quantitativa na produção do conhecimento científico sobre o tema. Dos 249 autores identificados na amostra, apenas 17 publicaram dois ou mais artigos, sugerindo que há uma convergência da produção regular em poucos grupos de pesquisa. A análise também revelou que 40% das palavras-chave aplicadas pelos autores estão concentradas em cinco termos (Climate Change, Sea Level Rise, Vulnerability, Estuary e GIS). Por fim, pode-se afirmar que a revisão sistemática, através da aplicação de técnicas de análise bibliométrica, oferece uma abordagem eficaz para sintetizar a literatura qualificada disponível mundialmente A estratégia proposta apresenta grande potencial para a caracterização de um dado domínio temático, bem como para a identificação de tendências e lacunas para serem exploradas em pesquisas futuras.

Os Megalonychidae são citados em diversos trabalhos científicos no Brasil, porém muitos espécimes atribuídos a essa família foram classificadas em espécies inválidas, como “Ocnopus gracilis”, “Valgipes deformis” e “Xenocnus cearesis”, ou a espécies que pertencem a outras famílias. Atualmente, as espécies Ahytherium aureum Cartelle, et al. 2008, Australonyx aquae De Iuliis et al. 2009, Megalonychops primigenius Kraglievich, 1926 e o gênero Megalonyx Harlan, 1823 são reconhecidas como válidas no Quaternário brasileiro. Um conjunto de dentes encontrados no Abismo Ponta de Flecha (Iporanga, SP), no Vale do Ribeira de Iguape, são aqui apresentados. Estes dentes possuem morfologia externa similar à encontrada em pequenos indivíduos ou subadultos de Ahytherium aureum. No entanto, como a dentição não é considerada uma característica diagnóstica da espécie, a identificação dos espécimes foi feita com reservas, tendo sido classificados como aff. Ahytherium aureum.
Mental health difficulties in paramedics: A review of the literature
Authors: Thomas Jade
Published: December 2023

Background

Paramedics are frequently exposed to traumatic events as part of their role. The implications of this constant exposure have suggested that paramedics are at high risk of developing long-term mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, burnout, trauma, PTSD, and suicide.

Purpose

To synthesise studies to examine factors that play a role in the development of mental health difficulties in ambulance personnel. As well as, establishing gaps within the literature for further research.

Data Sources

From the first 77 published journals reviewed from Psycinfo, PsychArticles, CINAHL, Education Research Complete, ERIC and grey literature, 15 studies met the inclusion criteria for this review and were included in the present study.

Results

Findings of this review suggest that the mental health and wellbeing of paramedics are significant issues. In reviewing the research, it was found that several different factors may play a role in the development of mental health difficulties in ambulance personnel. Four main themes were determined, (1) occupational stressors, (2) negative attitude towards emotional expression, (3) peer and social support, and (4) preparing paramedics for mental health challenges.

Conclusions

It is paramount for further research to explore paramedic students’ mental health experiences, as well as a focus on research to investigate a UK paramedic population due to most of the literature focusing on an international population. Psychological support and early interventions should be made a priority for all ambulance workers, as a way of improving the quality of the working life of paramedics.
Structural Existential Analysis (SEA) – A step-by-step guide for application to research
Authors: Fraser Natalie
Published: December 2023

Context & Focus

The field of existential research is gently growing, yet currently relies on methods rooted in other psychological approaches. In 2014, Deurzen introduced her innovative phenomenological research method entitled: Structural Existential Analysis (SEA). SEA is increasingly being used as a secondary layer of analysis within qualitative research, yet few have applied SEA as an outright method before now. This paper expands upon the original SEA foundations to provide a clear, empirically supported 8-step guide for the application of SEA as an outright research method. The researcher’s personal existential journey and their subjective use of philosophical heuristic models are considered. Resources for immersion into global existential philosophies are provided, moving beyond the prevailing Eurocentric sources to enrich the depth of insights available within the researcher’s project and wider disciplinary field.

Conclusion

Structural Existential Analysis (SEA) can be used as a stand-alone method of analysis for qualitative research. Unparalleled by existing research methods, this step-by-step application of SEA enables researchers to achieve a level of existential depth throughout their research journey moving beyond the prevailing Eurocentric contributions, advocates the importance of the human behind the research, supports the researcher’s creativity and intuition within the research process, and provides resources for personal reflexivity and self-development. Positioned towards novice and qualified researchers, this step-by-step guide offers a foundation for conducting ethical, empirically valid, and replicable lived-experience research.

The study is designed to examine the relationship between agricultural productivity and poverty alleviation in Nigeria from 1981 to 2020. To achieve this objective, secondary data were collected on the relevant variables namely per capita income, which was used as a proxy for poverty, agricultural output, agricultural loans to individuals, and the real gross domestic product. The data used were sourced from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) statistical bulletin and the World Bank database. The study adopted the Philips Perron test in testing for stationarity and the variables had a mixed order of integration. Auto Regressive Distributed Lag Model (ARDL) was adopted in carrying out the analyses after cointegration was established using the ARDL bounds test. The result of the study showed that an increase in agricultural output improved per capita income, which reduced the level of poverty. The model was also found to have no autocorrelation implying that the findings of the study are suitable for predictions and forecast. The study concluded that poverty can be alleviated through the improvement of the agricultural sector. The study also recommended among other things that the government should embark on policies that can strengthen the agricultural sector in Nigeria.

Published: December 2023

This study has been carried out to examine disclosure and market value of quoted oil and gas companies in Nigeria. The Nigerian oil and gas industry plays a crucial role in fostering economic growth and development. This research employed an ex-post facto research design, with the study population comprising eight (8) publicly listed oil and gas companies on the Nigerian Exchange Group (NEG) as of December 31, 2022. A purposive sampling technique was utilized to select a sample size of seven (7) companies based on data availability. The study spanned from 2012 to 2021, and data were extracted from the annual reports and accounts of the sampled companies on the NEG. Descriptive and inferential statistics were applied to analyze the data, with the testing of hypotheses conducted through panel data regression analysis employing robust cluster standard error. The findings revealed that environmental cost disclosure had a negative and significant impact on market value, while community development cost disclosure had a negative and insignificant effect on the market value of the oil and gas companies. The study concluded that caution should be exercised in disclosures to prevent adverse effects on the firm's market value. Additionally, it recommended that disclosures be closely monitored to avoid negative impacts on the company's market value.
Safeguarding and Preserving Africa’s Ritual Objects in the Face of Modernity: The Mwaghavul Case
Authors: Gubam Dimas Solomon
Published: December 2023

The focus of this paper is to study ritual objects among the Mwaghavul people and their preservation as heritage materials for posterity. The paper looks into the ritual objects of the Mwaghavul and the challenges facing their preservation. In doing this study, primary and secondary sources of data were used. While rituals and ritual objects represent a major defining attribute of the Mwaghavul people, most of these objects are now abandoned on hilltops or caves, forest and rock shelters, and at the mercy of bad weather conditions and agents of destruction like termite, fire, and other things that can destroy them naturally. The paper admonishes that these materials are the people's heritage that deserve preservation. The paper identifies globalization, stereotype, migration of young people into the cities, human and natural factors, and activities of heritage looters as some of the contributory factors. The paper however argues that the challenges can be addressed through public enlightenment, provision of conducive worship environments for adherents of traditional Mwaghavul religion, introduction of traditional religion into our school curriculum and provision of good places for the preservation of ritual objects. The paper concludes that as an important aspect of their culture, the Mwaghavul people should ensure that their ritual objects are safeguarded and preserved for posterity.
A Review of Social Capital as a Concept
Authors: Oladipo Temidayo David
Published: December 2023

There is a debate about what social ‘capital’ as a concept entails. This review article is a contribution to that debate. The article explores the various ways the concept of social capital has been used in the literature. The first is that users of the concept employ it to refer to social norms and moral values and the roles they play in society. This first conceptualisation of social capital emphasises the importance that values and norms have for the effectiveness of the various forms of capital. The thinking is that if moral values and social norms are lacking in guiding the operation of the other forms of capital, little or no progress will be made in society. The next perspective is that social capital is generated in people’s daily interaction in the community. This view attaches importance to associational life in society. Finally, the paper evaluates the debate about whether social capital can be regarded as a ‘capital’, given the fact that other forms of capital are tangible while social capital is intangible. It is demonstrated in this paper that inasmuch as other types of capital are valuable because they are able to generate expected outcomes, so is social capital a ‘capital’ because it enables the achievement of certain goals in society.
