Published: January 2022

Background: Peanut yields are affected by plant density and chemical controls. Methods: A field experiment was conducted in Southern China to investigate the effects of population density and paclobutrazol applications on the growth and yield of peanuts with monoseeding and double seeding patterns. Result: Paclobutrazol application could improve peanut yields. The highest peanut yields were observed with 250 mg L-1 paclobutrazol and a plant density of 235 410 plants ha-1, with the monoseeding pattern. Our results suggest that monoseeding and paclobutrazol could be applied to enhance peanut yields in Southern China.

The paper develops methods of system analysis and technologies for control dynamic conditions of technical means of railway transport. Methods of structural mathematical modeling are used, within the framework of which the design scheme of the object, considered as a mechanical oscillatory system with several degrees of freedom, is interpreted as a dynamically equivalent automatic control system. The problems of the dynamics of the coupling of two freight railway carriages with two variants of its rigidity (conventional and rigid hinge-type fastening) are considered. It is shown that with a certain choice of the values of the moments of inertia of the railway carriages and the parameters of the location of the center of mass, it is possible to solve the problems of motion stabilization. Concepts are proposed for the experimental determination of the moment of inertia and coordinates of the center of mass of the railway carriage when rolling the cars off the marshalling hump and passing a special measuring station. Algorithms for determining the values of the parameters of the center of mass of the railway carriage and the values of the moment of inertia are proposed.

Gilberto aqui e agora
Authors: Albergaria Victor Fernandes , Freitas Sérgio Paulo Ribeiro de
Published: January 2022

Sabendo que as canções populares surgem em determinado lugar e época, o presente artigo viaja às últimas décadas do século XX, colhendo histórias e sentidos que, por fora, não se separam da canção “Aqui e agora” (1977) de Gilberto Gil. Em um primeiro momento o texto percorre entrevistas, depoimentos e documentários, relendo considerações sobre acontecimentos que cercam a canção. Considerando que o título funciona como parte do programa, no segundo momento o artigo averigua como o nome da canção é escutado em seu tempo: “aqui e agora” são duas palavras soltas que se unem para indicar o espaço-tempo do enunciador? Ou ganham significações mais amplas? Lidando com questões como essas, o artigo tece conclusões que, por fim, apontam para uma articulação entre o por dentro e o por fora da canção, notando que são várias as escutas que, ao mesmo tempo, se entrecruzam a partir da voz de um personagem.
“Paixão e Fé”
Authors: Lovisi Daniel Menezes
Published: January 2022

O texto tem por objetivo trazer reflexões sobre os processos de construção de significados na canção “Paixão e Fé” a partir de uma análise semiótica. Tendo como base os estudos do musicólogo Philip Tagg (2012) pretende-se evidenciar a maneira como os códigos musicais e a letra atuam conjuntamente na elaboração de um artefato cultural multidimensional, a canção, que pode suscitar significados a partir da leitura do complexo que envolve a obra inserida em seu contexto histórico, social e cultural específicos. O fonograma de 1978, gravado no álbum Clube da Esquina 2, de Milton Nascimento, é confrontado com outras músicas pertencentes ao mesmo cenário histórico e musical de modo a permitir a verificação do modo como compositores, arranjadores e intérpretes atuantes no campo da música brasileira popular produzida em Minas Gerais mobilizaram aspectos da cultura regional em seus trabalhos, notadamente a religiosidade católica, de modo a representar traços de uma identidade cultural na canção.

Em 2019, o projeto Cordel das Cordas Populares teve o objetivo de ensinar em classes coletivas os gêneros musicais que compõem o forró para estudantes de cordas friccionadas, em situação de vulnerabilidade social. Elaborado pelo autor deste artigo, o material é baseado nos trabalhos artísticos e pedagógicos dos violinistas populares Nicolas Krassik (1969-) e Ricardo Herz (1978-), e seu ensino interagiu com as práticas da contação de histórias em folhetos de cordel e dança. Este artigo pretende descrever e analisar essa experiência pedagógica interdisciplinar da performance musical, por meio de um olhar pedagógico decolonial, demonstrando a complementaridade entre as práticas de música, contação de histórias e dança.
Origem e reflexão
Authors: Rezende Gabriel Sampaio Souza Lima
Published: January 2022

Este artigo apresenta uma visão sintética de minhas experiências de crítica imanente com a música popular. Situadas no interior de um campo acadêmico em consolidação, e de uma linhagem teórica específica que nele se esboça, essas experiências são comentadas à luz das teorias e das obras que as motivaram. Dos trabalhos elaborados ao longo de mais de uma década, escolhi destacar aspectos específicos que demonstrem as virtudes e limitações desse tipo de abordagem interdisciplinar à música popular e, ao mesmo tempo, explicitar os vínculos teórico-metodológicos que as unem. A elaboração teórica dessas experiências conduz a uma reflexão final sobre as condições da própria crítica.
A flauta e a câmera
Authors: Bertho Renan Moretti
Published: January 2022

Partindo de uma reflexão sobre o uso da imagem no campo da etnomusicologia, apresento efoques teóricos e metodológicos sobre temas que inicialmente partiram da minha vivência como músico e que posteriormente se tornaram objeto de reflexão acadêmica em minha diessertação de mestrado. Meu argumento inicial é que as funções e os usos da imagem na pesquisa etnomusicológica podem ocupar diferentes estágios: desde a ilustração geral de contextos até a conceituação e a problematização da posição do pesquisador em campo, passando pelos processos de reflexividade e de interpretação de dados. Observo como o uso da câmera no processo de pesquisa pode conciliar e orientar as funções de insider e outsider, colocando o pesquisador, mesmo que momentaneamente, em um ‘não lugar’ etnográfico. Demonstro ainda de que forma diferentes materialidades – sobretudo fotos, textos e passagens do diário de campo – podem se conectar para compor um quadro descritivo e reflexivo da performance investigada.
A didática da improvisação musical na escola primária e secundária
Authors: Caporaletti Vincenzo , Lima Luiz Santos
Published: January 2022

Os estudos sobre improvisação musical tiveram notável florescimento recente, especialmente na Itália. Não podia ser diferente, creio que se possa afirmar, na terra dos poetas improvisadores da rima oitava e do partimento setecentista, apesar da proclamada primogenitura ultramarina, jazzística ou não. Mas o aspecto que mais se destaca aqui é que essa nova onda de pesquisas não poderia deixar de repercutir na finalidade eletiva da investigação teórica, com a aplicação, ou melhor, a transposição pedagógico-didática. Neste artigo, analisarei algumas direções didáticas já estabelecidas, verificando suas conexões com modelos teóricos de criatividade em tempo real hoje desafiados por essas pesquisas recentes. Outras propostas operacionais se seguirão à luz da convicção de que uma mudança no paradigma teórico implica necessariamente um reposicionamento das estratégias educacionais e didáticas.

Published: January 2022

Public demand for financial transparency of zakat institutions is getting stronger. The weak quality of financial reports resulted in a distrust of this institution. Therefore, a framework is needed as a reference in compiling and presenting quality financial reports that meet public expectations. This article aims to propose a financial transparency framework for the Amil Zakat Institution (LAZ) in Indonesia. This is a descriptive qualitative study with an explanatory approach. Furthermore, data collection was carried out through studies related to financial transparency of the institution and was complemented by interviews with directors, distribution managers, accounting staff, and three muzaki of zakat institutions in Central Java. The results concluded that the framework for transparency practice in the financial statements of zakat institutions comprises three parts, namely the principle of tauhid as a foundation component. Amil zakat professionalism, internal audit, internal control, and financial accounting standards are the principal components, as well as the use of the website as support. The implication of this study is that the credibility of zakat institutions can be increased by improving the quality of financial reports.

Escorregamentos e fluxos de detritos no Brasil são fenômenos naturais desencadeados por eventos extremos de chuva. Ao longo das últimas décadas, um grande número de eventos de diferentes magnitudes vem sendo registrados em diferentes regiões do Brasil. Como uma importante medida preventiva, frequentemente são elaborados mapas de áreas suscetíveis a movimentos de massa. Modelos computacionais têm sido amplamente utilizados, e são desenvolvidos a partir de Modelos Digitais de Terreno (MDT). Desta forma o objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar a influência da resolução de um MDT sobre o desempenho dos modelos SHALSTAB e Kanako-2D por meio da aplicação dos mesmos a um bairro no município de Igrejinha/RS. Foi utilizado um MDT de 2,5 m o qual foi posteriormente reamostrado para as resoluções de 5 m, 10 m, 25 m e 50 m. Os resultados demonstraram uma alta influência da resolução, principalmente em pequena escala de análise e para as resoluções de 25 m e 50 m. Também mostraram que para a escala utilizada no presente estudo, a resolução mínima de um MDT deve ser de 10 m.

Esta pesquisa foi desenvolvida na área urbana da cidade de Cambé/PR, com o objetivo discutir a importância da conservação das áreas verdes e a sua correlação entre homem e natureza com a qualidade de vida ao utilizar-se de ribeirões, rios e áreas verdes urbanas e rurais do município. Há necessidade de se discutir alternativas de sustentabilidade ecológica que minimizem as degradações ambientais não apenas para a área de estudo, mas para todas as cidades que tenham concentrações populacionais que causam danos ao meio ambiente. É possível perceber que com a responsabilidade socio/ambiental e a conexão homem – natureza pode ser os caminhos para a conservação ambiental e suas funções indispensáveis na estruturação de uma cidade moderna. Desta forma, foi utilizado como metodologia a pesquisa em literaturas diversificadas, investigação de fenômeno geográfico in loco. Conclui-se que desde a década de 90, foram construídos 4 novos bairros as margens do ribeirão Barra Grande além de uma subestação de tratamento de esgoto e que neste local passou por grandes transformações na perca de sua vegetação natural, aumento na erosão do solo e com diminuição da vazão de águas ao longo do seu leito. Hoje a cidade possui 14 praças (Amigos da Praça) e/ou rotatórias que foram revitalizadas com árvores e flores, em conjunto com a iniciativa privada local.
Antineoplastic Drugs as a Cause of Drug Induced-Immune Hemolytic Anemia, Resulting in Major Intravascular Hemolysis Leading to Acute Kidney Injury Requiring Renal Replacement Therapy
Authors: Bay Pierre , Buob David , Gabarre Paul , Rondeau Eric , Fillon Julie , Gibier Jean-Baptiste , Luque Yosu , Modot Thomas , Doreille Alice , Rafat Cedric
Published: January 2022

Background
Drug-induced immune hemolysis (DIIHA) is rare and may involve antineoplastic agent. Life threatening DIIHA complicated with severe acute kidney injury (AKI) has hitherto seldom been reported and had yet to be scrutinized from a clinical standpoint.
Methods
Over a five-month period we admitted in our intensive care unit three patients with KDIGO stage 3 AKI along with, hemolytic anemia and thrombocytopenia within 24-hours following the administration of antineoplastic agent. These three women underwent anti-neoplastic treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer.
Results
All three patients presented with 1) abrupt immune intravascular hemolysis along with thrombocytopenia 2) a positive direct antiglobulin test (DAT) positive for IgG 3) absence of schistocytes 4) and AKI requiring replacement therapy. All patients had multiple previous exposure to the drugs received. Kidney biopsy was performed for patient 1, displaying acute tubular necrosis lesions interpreted as pigment nephropathy. Investigations in patients 2 and 3 highlighted high-titers of specific oxaliplatin-dependent antibodies. Hemolysis resolved within 14 days post-chemotherapy for all three patients. The renal outcome was favorable.
Conclusions
Antineoplastic drugs can elicit abrupt immune hemolysis and thrombocytopenia, resulting in severe AKI. Thorough explorations are warranted to confirm DIHA, incriminate the offending drug on proper grounds while exonerating other pharmacological therapies, a chief concern in the setting of cancer therapy so not to needlessly reduce anti-cancer treatment options. The outlook for renal recovery seems favorable.

Authors: Xia Shengqiang , Tong Zhen , Shi An , Sun Jie
Published: January 2022

Objective: To monitor the occupational noise exposure during minimally invasive benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) laser surgery procedures in the operating room.Methods: A wireless noise level meter was used to monitor the noise exposure to the surgeon and patients during different BPH laser surgery procedures. The sound level were recorded during 180-W Photoselective vaporization of the prostate surgery (Realton Co., Beijing,China ), 100-W Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate(HoLEP, VersaPulse Power-Suite, Lumenis Ltd),90-W HoLEP (Dahua Laser Co., Jiangsu, China) and 60-W HoLEP (VersaPulse Power-Suite, Lumenis Ltd). Maximum peak level and time-average decibel level were measured. State Anxiety Inventory (S-AI) scores of 37 surgeons from 5 hospitals after an 8-h working day for different laser surgery were recoreded.Results: The mean background sound levels in the operation room prior to laser surgery was 48dB within a range of 40~54 dB. A maximum sound level of 91 dB was recorded at level of surgeon’ head during the working of 100-W HoLEP machine, while the mean decibel level was 85dB. Use of the 90-W HoLEP machines achieved the lowest mean decibel level (66 dB) recording both at level of surgeon’s and patient’s head. The sounds during 180-W PVP ranged from 60~77 dB at level of surgeon’s head and 60~75dB at patients’s head. The State Anxiety score was significantly higher in the 100-W HoLEP group compared with other groups (P<0.05).Conclusions: Our data showed the noise exposure during minimally invasive benign prostatic hyperplasia procedures. A modified cooling system in 90-W HoLEP machine could effectively reduce the noised emitted by the laser generator. Surgeons may experience uncomfortable and anxiety after an 8h working day for HoLEP. Music and noised-induced headphones may help to reduce negative emotion.

Published: January 2022

We evaluate the impact of government-mandated proof of vaccination requirements for access to public venues and non-essential businesses on COVID-19 vaccine uptake. We find that the announcement of a mandate is associated with a rapid and significant surge in new vaccinations (more than 60% increase in weekly first doses), using the variation in the timing of these measures across Canadian provinces in a difference-in-differences approach. Time-series analysis for each province and for France, Italy and Germany corroborates this finding. Counterfactual simulations using our estimates suggest the following cumulative gains in the vaccination rate among the eligible population (age 12 and over) as of October 31, 2021: up to 5 percentage points (p.p.) (90% CI 3.9-5.8) for Canadian provinces, adding up to 979,000 (425,000-1,266,000) first doses in total for Canada (5 to 13 weeks after the provincial mandate announcements), 8 p.p. (4.3-11) for France (16 weeks post-announcement), 12 p.p. (5-15) for Italy (14 weeks post-announcement) and 4.7 p.p. (4.1-5.1) for Germany (11 weeks post-announcement).

Actionable gene alterations were found in 97.2% of the cases. Co-alteration analysis suggested that either TP53- or APC-related alterations were more frequently found in early-stage tumors (stage I). The copy number alteration count was significantly lower in right side colon tumors than in tumors in other locations (P < 0.05). Homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) was more often identified in stage IV tumors than in stage I or II tumors (P < 0.05). Moreover, high HRD status was suggested to be useful for identifying high-risk stage II tumors (P < 0.05).
Conclusion:

In this study, real-world NGS data represented the biological features of CRCs. HRD was identified as a useful result of gene panel testing with novel utility in clinical practice.

With the rapid development of mariculture, environmental pollution is becoming more and more serious. It is particularly important to study the green output bias of technological progress for the long-term sustainable development of mariculture. Based on the input-output data of the mariculture in 10 Chinese coastal areas from 2008 to 2018, the DEA-Malmquist index decomposition method is used to calculate output-biased technological progress index and combines with the change of marginal substitution rate of output factors in different periods to identify the bias of technological progress between output factors, and analyze the green output bias of mariculture technological progress. The results show that green technological progress is a crucial factor affecting green total factor productivity’s growth in China’s mariculture. During the study period, the number of regions where technological progress tends to reduce pollutant emissions shows a fluctuating upward trend, and the degree of technological progress toward green output is high. There are obvious differences among regions. The green output bias of technological progress in the South China Sea area is the highest, followed by the East China Sea area, and the Bohai Sea area is poor. Specifically, the green output bias of technological progress in Fujian, Guangdong and Hainan is higher, while the green output bias of technological progress in Tianjin, Hebei, Shandong and Guangxi is lower. According to the research results, corresponding policy suggestions are provided to realize the green and sustainable development of China’s mariculture.

PURPOSE

Researchers are interested in examining the impact of visual display devices (VDDs) on the development of dry eye illness because their use is becoming more common among college students. The goal of this study was to see if there was a link between certain risk factors and the development of eye dryness in VDDs using young adults who wore contact lenses and those who didn't.
METHODS

The self-administrated survey was hosted in Google Forms, sent via e-mail to the participants. It consisted of two parts of assessing different risk factors (i.e. environmental conditions, angle of gaze, years of VDD use) with contact lens use and Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) questionnaire. The OSDI scores of the entire sample who suffer from dry eye and the subgroup using contact lenses were calculated. The relationship between different risk factors with the OSDI scores was also assessed.
RESULTS

274 young adults from college students and academic staff (216 female, 58 male) were suffering from eye dryness. 88 of the 274 participants wore contact lenses. The mean OSDI scores of the 274 young adults was 32.92. Mean OSDI scores in contact lens wearers and non-wearers were 34.36 and 32.24 respectively (p<0.01). There was a statistically significant relationship between OSDI score and indoor environmental conditions in computer using VDD group. Using a computer in a dark environment and above the line of sight resulted in a higher OSDI scores. Females who wore contact lenses whilst using a computer for more than three years had significantly higher OSDI scores than non-wearer females. Tablet type VDD use increased the mean ODSI scores of the contact lens wearers significantly.
CONCLUSIONS

Dry eye symptoms were shown to be increased in the contact lens wearer group with the increased duration of computer VDD use, decreased indoor environmental brightness conditions, and above the line of sight.

The quantitative evaluation of water conservation in the Luoyang area can provide a basis for decision-making on regional water resources development and utilization, ecological environmental protection and economic development planning. Based on the SWAT model and alternative engineering method, the water conservation and its service value in Luoyang region from 2009 to 2018 were assessed and the reasons for their spatial and temporal changes were analyzed. The results show that during the period of 2009-2018, the total water connotation and its service value reached the highest in 2014, with 16,927,100 m3 and 103 million yuan, respectively; the total water connotation and its service value reached the lowest in 2011, with 7,073,500 m3 and 43,224,000 yuan, respectively. Forest ecosystems have a strong water retention and storage capacity, and the highest water conservation and service value. Precipitation is the most important factor influencing water conservation and service value. The value of water-supporting services per unit area of ecosystem in Luoyang area is forest, grassland, arable land and urban in descending order.

The reactive oxygen scavengers play important roles in regulating the cassava ( Manihot esculenta Crantz) leaf abscission induced by stresses. To date, the relationship between natural variations of MYB genes and reactive oxygen scavengers under drought in cassava genotypes remains unclear. Here, we reported the transcription factor MeMYB108 played a positive role in regulating leaf abscission exposed to drought in cassava. The expression levels of MeMYB108 in abscission zones of cassava leaf pulvinus were higher in cassava genotype SC124, which were less easy to shed leaves under stress than cassava genotype SC8 when the leaf abscission induced by drought condition was identical. For the transgenic cassava, overexpression ofMeMYB108 significantly reduced the drought-induced leaf abscission rate, while the interference expression increased leaf abscission rate under the same condition. The consecutively two-year analysis of reactive oxygen scavengers showed significant differences among different cassava genotypes under drought-induced leaf abscission, indicating the relevance between reactive oxygen scavengers and leaf abscission. Correlation analysis revealed the natural variation of theMeMYB108 exon was associated with reactive oxygen scavengers during drought-induced leaf abscission. Phylogenetic analysis indicated the MeMYB108 allele enhanced the tolerance of cassava to drought-induced leaf abscission. Complementation transgenic lines containing the elite allele of MeMYB108 SC124 decreased the leaf abscission rate induced by drought conditions, demonstrating natural variation in MeMYB108 contributed to leaf abscission tolerance induced by drought in cassava. Further studies showed MeMYB108 played an active role in the tolerance of cassava to drought-induced leaf abscission by inducing scavenging of reactive oxygen species.

Thenusunimaculatus (Burton and Davie 2007)is one of the most important commercially exploited lobster species in India distributed throughout the coast. The declining trends and collapse of the sand lobster fishery has been reported from the northwest coast of India. A number of hypotheses have been proposed to explain the decline, but a lack of basic information on population demographics inhibits hypothesis testing. In this study, morphometric stock structure analysis of Thenusunimaculatus was attempted to discriminate the spawning population collected from five locations (673 specimens) during 2017-2019 along the Indian coast. Data was subjected to allometric transformation to remove size effect. The transformed data was subjected to multivariate analysis, such as Principal Component Analysis (PCA) followed by linear discriminant analysis (LDA) using R software. The first eight PCs cumulatively explained 73.97% of the total variance,wherein the first two PCs together explained 45.50% of the total variance. The accuracy (ACC) and misclassification rate (MR) of the linear discriminant analysis (LDA) model performed to optimize separation among different sampling locations were 0.70 and 0.30, respectively, which indicates clear overlapping of the stocks among different sampling locations.The accuracy (ACC) and misclassification rate (MR) of the linear LDA model developed to discriminatebetween the coasts were 0.74 and 0.26,respectively, indicating no apparent differentiation in the samples between the coasts. The results of this study revealed the presence of asingle spawning stock of shovel nosed lobster, T. unimaculatus along the Indian coast.The information will aid in the development of better holistic management strategy for the conservation of this declining resource.

Suicide is the second leading cause of death between the ages of 15 and 29. Most suicides are related to mental illnesses. Suicide is considered a response to predicaments. Due to the growing prevalence of suicide, assessing people's attitudes toward suicide is necessary. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the psychometric properties of the Persian version of the Predicaments Questionnaire (PQ), measuring social attitudes toward suicide.Methods:This psychometrics study evaluated face validity, content validity, temporal stability, internal consistency, and exploratory factor analysis. First, the questionnaire was translated into Persian by the translate-back-translate method. The Persian version was provided to 10 experts in psychiatry for further revision. Two indicators, CVR and CVI, were calculated to evaluate the content validity. To check the face validity, we prepared a form and gave it to 10 people outside the campus to submit their opinions. The results were then given to 10 experts to comment on.Temporal stability was investigated by the test-retest method, reporting Intraclass correlation (ICC). Internal consistency was assessed by reporting Cronbach's alpha and McDonald’s Omega coefficients. Exploratory factor analysis was used to determine the number of dimensions of the questionnaire. In this analysis, χ2, TLI, CFI, RMSEA, and SRMR indices were calculated. All analyses were performed using SPSS software version 22 and R software version 4.Results:A total of 151 students were enrolled with a mean age of 25 (SD=0.32). The Persian PQ was valid in terms of content validity and face validity. Furthermore, it was reliable as Cronbach’s alpha, McDonald’s Omega, and the ICC were 0.94, 0.943, and 0.998, respectively. In addition, the exploratory factor analysis yielded one dimension. Finally, after reviewing the experts’ comments, the final amendments were made, and only question 29 was removed from the final version.Conclusion:Consequently, the Persian version of the PQ is acceptable in terms of content validity, face validity, temporal stability, and internal consistency. This questionnaire can be used in future research on Persian-speaking society.
