Published: January 2025

The research trial was conducted during 2023-2024 at the vineyard situated in ICAR-National Research Centre for Grapes, Pune. The berry thinning was performed at different berry developmental stages to prevent bunch compactness of Crimson Seedless grapes. The experiment was carried out in a randomized block design with five treatments and five replications. Berry thinning efficiently reduced the bunch compactness and produced medium loose bunches with optimum yield. However, it did not significantly influence yield. Early berry thinning at 4-6 mm berry stage led to increased berry size (17.04 mm) and improved quality parameters such as colour intensity (6.63 %), total phenolic content (1.17 mg 100 g-1) and anthocyanin (22.41 mg 100 g-1), while later thinning stages showed a diminishing effect. It was observed that thinning had advantage on producing quality grapes.

Authors: Abebe Kalkidan Shiferaw , Kebede Mesfin , Barnabas John
Published: January 2025

Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) is a major oil crop farmed in many parts of the world. Sesame yields are quite low due to inadequate management practices and planting after the optimal period of sowing. One of the most serious issues in global sesame production is leaf blight disease, which can arise in epidemics. Long periods of damp and humid weather promote the disease. As a result, determining the optimal planting date may aid in the resolution of these issues. A field experiment was carried out in Itang special woreda to explore the effects of different sowing dates on sesame yield and yield components, as well as to find the best yielding sesame variety. A factorial combination of four sowing dates (2nd June, 17th June, 2nd July, and 17th July) was set up in a Randomized Complete Block Design with three replications. The data analysis demonstrated a significant interaction impact (p≤0.01) between sowing dates and varieties on plant height, number of branches per plant, number of capsules per branch, number of capsules per plant, number of seeds per capsule, thousand seeds weight, and seed yield. Sowing dates had a significant impact on seed oil content, days to flowering, and days to maturity (p≤0.05). However, cultivars did not have a significant impact on these factors. The Abasena and Adi sesame cultivars produced the maximum plant heights (99.8 and 96.2 cm, respectively) during the early June sowing season. The above-mentioned varieties produced the most branches per plant (6.6 and 5.6) when planted on June 17th, respectively. The maximum number of capsules per branch (6.3 and 5.8) and capsules per plant (44.6 and 41) were observed on June 17th from the Abasena and Adi sesame varieties, respectively. According to the current findings, the largest number of seeds per capsule (62 and 51) was acquired on June 17th, while the lowest number of seeds per capsule (28 and 26) was achieved on July 17th planting. Both kinds produced their highest yields (769 and 702 kg ha-1) from June 17th planting. In conclusion, the 17th of June was the best sowing date for sesame yield and yield components in the research area. To arrive at a reliable conclusion, additional study should be conducted across multiple places and seasons.

Published: January 2025

Among the cultivated mushrooms, Pleurotus spp. occupies an important place and is being produced on a large scale, globally. In terms of mushroom output, India is still increasing at a very moderate rate of 4.3 per cent. One of the major reasons responsible for such slow growth rate is the dipteran fly, Bradysia tritici (Coquillett). In this light, present study was conducted to check the susceptibility level of different Pleurotus spp. against B. tritici and the effect of organic products viz., Cow urine, Panchgavya, Jeevamrit and Dashgavya for the management of this pest. Among the four Pleurotus species screened against B. tritici, all were found to be vulnerable; P. cornucopiae being the most susceptible followed by P. florida, P. ostreatus and P. sajor caju. Out of the organic products, dashgavya at 10 per cent was the only suitable product which not only reduced the insect population but also improved the mushroom yields. Therefore, keeping in view the environment safety and crop yield, preventive spray of dashgavya can be given to manage this pest. Additionally, as a part of integrated pest management, these low-cost organic solutions can be tested in turn benefiting the mushroom industry.

Validation of the Polish Self and Interpersonal Functioning Scale (SIFS-PL) in community and clinical samples
Authors: Soroko Emilia , Cieciuch Jan , Gamache Dominick
Published: January 2025

Background

The aim of this study was to examine the psychometric properties of the Polish version of the Self and Interpersonal Func-tioning Scale (SIFS-PL). The scale is designed to assess Criterion A of the DSM-5 Alternative Model of Personality Disorders (AMPD) – the four core elements of personality pathology (Identity, Self-direction, Empathy, and Intimacy) from the Level of Personality Functioning (LPF) for personality disorders (PDs).

Participants and procedure

Adult participants from 6 community and clinical samples (total N = 394; 83.2% female; age: M = 30.9, SD = 9.6) completed the SIFS-PL. A clinical subsample of 50 patients diagnosed with personality disorders additionally completed the Personali-ty Inventory for DSM-5 (PID5).

Results

Confirmatory factor analysis supported a bifactor four-factor model. All items had significant loadings on both the four specific elements and an overarching general personality pathology factor. The internal consistency ranged from acceptable to good for subscales and excellent for the global scale. In terms of criterion validity, results from the clinical subgroup were consistent with previous research on the SIFS. The SIFS-PL scales effectively discriminated between community sample participants and those suffering from depression, as well as an ambulatory clinical group with personality disorders.

Conclusions

Our findings underscore the robust psychometric properties of the Polish version of the SIFS, rendering it a promising tool for both screening and extensive research on personality disorders within contemporary dimensional models such as the AMPD and ICD-11. Its application in clinical settings can also be advocated. However, general scores and subscale scores might serve distinct purposes, warranting further investigation into their predictive validity.

Published: January 2025

Background: Polyamide denture base material is a commonly used material in dentistry for making removable dentures. However, it is prone to fracture and requires repair. The traditional repair methods involve the use of acrylic resins, which can lead to a decrease in the tensile strength of the repaired material. To overcome this issue, researchers have explored the use of flexible materials and processing techniques for repairing polyamide denture base material.
Objective of study: The goal of this study is to determine the tensile strength of polyamide denture base material that has been rebuilt using flexible material and various processing processes. (manual heating, reinjection and spruing).
Materials and Methods: A total of 50 samples were produced from a total of 50 acrylic resins for this study. Group one contains the positive control consisting of 10 specimens, and negative control group, which were tested for tensile strength 10 with fracture both 20 specimens without addition fusing material. three groups of 10 specimens for each were formed from the thirty specimens that had been repaired by manual heating, reinjection and spruing these groups were treated by surface Russian treatment (evidsum fusing material) after that sample preparation, curing and finishing and polishing process. The tensile strength specimens were tested by instron machine.
Results: The findings of the present study indicated highly significant differences among means of the tensile strength for different Russia's processing techniques. The highest mean value of Tensile Strength was (23.813 ± 3.390 mpa) for C1(control without repairing), and the lowest mean value was (5.657 ± 0.715 mpa), for C2(control with repairing).
Conclusion: The use of flexible material and processing techniques has a significant impact on the tensile strength of repaired polyamide denture base material. The incorporation of flexible materials such as thermoplastic nylon can improve the flexibility and fracture resistance of the repaired denture base. Additionally, re-injection nylon repair (RiNR) processing technique promotes the adhesion and highest value of tensile strength.

Authors: Baida Ajeal Badir Al-Omairi  , Nokes Len
Published: January 2025

Background: It is acknowledged that 84% of cases of pain are related to the spine. In one instance, low back pain is reduced by the spinal adjustment technique, which is predicated on exerting external stresses on the shoulder and pelvis to twist the human spine. A deeper comprehension of the biomechanical behaviour of the typical lumbar spine in each lower trunk rotational position will yield important information that can be translated into improved physical treatment line.
Objective of study: The objective of this study was to utilize MRI to find how different lower trunk twisting positions influenced the extent of lower lumbar spine lateral flexion.  
Materials and Methods: Sagittal T2 weighted Magnetic resonance images of fifteen males with healthy spine structures were collected in order to evaluate the consequences of right and left lumbar spine rotations on the extent of lateral flexion of their lower backs. The extent of the lateral flexion at each contiguous lower lumbar vertebrae was measured manually by using image J software.
Results: In proportion to the lower lumbar twisting positions, the extent of lateral flexion at the last three lumbar levels increased. At all twisting positions, the lateral flexion degree was greatest at fourth- fifth lumbar level.  The mean differences of lateral flexion angle were significant only in the left twisting position at the fourth and fifth lumbar levels.
Conclusion: The extent of lateral flexion at all lower lumbar segments grew in synchrony with the lower lumbar twisting positions. fourth–fifth lumbar level had the largest lateral flexion angle. But only in the left rotational position did the effect become noticeable. Consequently, this level may be the primary target of manipulative therapy during treatment.

Published: January 2025

Este artigo apresenta uma pesquisa que sugere um modelo estatístico focado na análise dos riscos associados à exposição de dados sensíveis em sistemas que utilizam automação robótica de processos. O estudo se dedica a entender os obstáculos relacionados à proteção e à privacidade das informações em operações automatizadas. Para isso, o modelo é fundamentado na avaliação de variáveis críticas, como os níveis de acesso autorizados, a natureza dos dados manipulados e as possíveis fragilidades tecnológicas. A abordagem utilizada envolveu a coleta e análise de dados práticos, além da aplicação de técnicas estatísticas avançadas, como a regressão linear múltipla, histogramas e séries temporais, para estimar a probabilidade de ocorrências de incidentes de segurança. Os achados indicam que a inexistência de políticas de controle de acesso eficazes e falhas nos sistemas de segurança figuram entre os principais pontos de vulnerabilidade. Ademais, ambientes que manejam grandes quantidades de informações sensíveis ou que possuem acessos amplamente distribuídos apresentam uma maior suscetibilidade a riscos. O modelo desenvolvido tem o intuito de funcionar como uma ferramenta valiosa para ajudar os gestores na implementação de estratégias preventivas e na melhoria das medidas de segurança, assim contribuindo para a conformidade e proteção dos sistemas. A pesquisa enfatiza a importância de atualizações constantes nas práticas de segurança e de soluções que estejam em sintonia com os avanços tecnológicos.
ASPECTOS CLÍNICOS DA COINFECÇÃO ENTRE HIV E LEISHMANIOSE VISCERAL

Published: January 2025

O objetivo deste estudo é descrever o perfil clínico dos casos de LV coinfectados com HIV. Foi realizada uma busca por trabalhos prévios nas plataformas Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), Portal Regional da Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS) e National Library of Medicine (PubMed) considerandos os descritores “hiv” e “leishmaniasis’’. Incluíram-se artigos publicados nos últimos 10 anos (2013-2023) nos idiomas inglês e português, de acesso livre e artigos cujos estudos eram do tipo ensaio clínico controlado, estudo observacional ou relato de caso. Foram excluídos os artigos que não abordavam a clínica da coinfecção entre as doenças, resultando em 25 artigos analisados. Nos estudos analisados foi observado uma clínica atípica prevalente com sintomas gastrointestinais, presença de lesões cutâneas disseminadas e sintomas típicos da LV como febre, hepatoesplenomegalia e pancitopenia no entanto foi encontrada uma pequena proporção de indivíduos assintomáticos. A deficiência imunitária juntamente com o sinergismo do HIV com LV pode ser um dos fatores principais para a clínica atípica e gravidade do quadro, contribuindo para a recidiva e mortalidade. Portanto é fundamental que em áreas endêmicas para ambas as doenças, os médicos que atendem os pacientes imunossuprimidos incluam a LV no seu diagnóstico diferencial para um melhor manejo e tratamento.

Published: January 2025

This research aims to design and simulate a DC motor speed control system using integral state feedback (KISF) control. This control is designed to maintain DC motor speed stability with high accuracy despite disturbances or load changes. The research stages include mathematical modeling of the DC motor, PID control design, integral state feedback control design, simulation implementation and simulation results analysis. The show that althought integral state feedback control has a rise time 273.501 ms, slightly slower than PID 197.604 ms, integral state feedback compensates with higher slew rate of change 6.540 V/ms compared to PID
4.344 V/ms. Integral state feedback offers greater
flexibility through pole placement values with Ackerman’s formula J3 = [-12 -100 -600], indicating that this system has good capability in responding to input changes, thus maintaining motor speed stably and efficiently. This indicates that integral state feedback control is superior in system adaptation and handling complex dynamics.
