Commemoration of Dr. Barnabás Nagy, a Research Entomologist on a Mission to Serve Biodiversity and Agrozoology
Authors: Szövényi G. , Puskás G. , Szőcs G.
Published: March 2021

Dr. Barnabás Nagy

(1921–2020), a naturalist, orthopterologist, agrozoologist and forward-looking ecologist covered a rich scientific career. In commemoration of his significant contribution to entomology, we attempt to shed some light on a selection of his achievements. While devoted to his chosen insect order, Orthoptera, he was sensitive also to problems coming from everyday’s practice in controlling pests in agriculture. Consequently, he dealt with various pest species, belonging to a variety of insect taxa (Coleoptera, Lepidoptera, Hymenoptera). He always put the actual problem in ecological context. This may have helped him to recognize the need for an ecological approach in plant protection and to develop the pioneering concept of biological / ecological pest management, published in Hungarian, as early as in 1957. When arguing for his concept, he criticized the surplus usages of toxic pesticides and provided guidelines for facilitating the beneficial activity of the natural enemies of pests. This way he prepared the way for integrated pest management (IPM), preceding the international mainstream of his age. He held an active part in the International Organization for Biological Control (IOBC), as a founder of the International Working Group of Ostrinia (IWGO), and was the Head of the Department of Zoology of the Plant Protection Institute, Budapest, Hungary. He held several positions in the Hungarian Entomological Society (President, vice-President, Secretary, committee member), to that society he was engaged for 80 years. Here we cite only some of his most important, original entomological papers. He regularly published also in journals for popular science and gave lectures for the young generations of entomologists.

Klyngevejledning – Kaos eller Quest?
Authors: Bang-Larsen Anne
Published: March 2021

Formålet med artiklen er at give et indblik i elevers opfattelse af, hvad klyngevejledning kan bidrage med i den faglige vejledning af skrivning af gymnasiets studieforberedende opgaver. Dette er af interesse, fordi klyngevejledning som vejledningsdidaktik på ungdomsuddannelserne er en ny vejledningspraksis, og fordi denne vejledningspraksis ikke er undersøgt i skandinavisk forskning. Undersøgelsen er et delstudie af en større undersøgelse af elevers oplevelser af faglig vejledning i det 3-årige danske gymnasieforløb. I artiklen præsenteres et casestudie af en enkelt elevs narrativ, som danner grundlag for en udfoldet narrativ analyse. Data er genereret gennem deltagerobservation og kvalitative forskningsinterviews. Undersøgelsen er baseret på en sociokulturel tilgang med afsæt i Bakhtins dialogbegreb og Goffmans teori om facework, en tilgang der muliggør identifikation af klyngevejledningens stemmer, roller og positioneringer i narrativerne. På den baggrund vurderes, hvad der fra et elevperspektiv understøtter en skriverudvikling. Undersøgelsen giver et indblik i, hvordan en elev i den 3-årige vejledningsproces udvikler sig. På den baggrund peges på, at nogle af de udfordringer, der knytter sig til klyngevejledning som praksis, er de skiftende kontekster, de forskelligartede forventninger og manglende kendskab til, og adressering af, elevens skrivning.

ABSTRACT Cryopreservation is a technique that may potentially conserve the germplasm of species of the Coffea genus for an indeterminate time. The aim of this study was to evaluate the physiological, biochemical and ultrastructural characteristics of cryopreserved seeds of Coffea arabica L., cultivar Catucaí amarelo IAC 62, which was subjected to different protocols regarding dehydration, precooling, cooling, rewarming and cathode water use. According to each protocol, the seeds were subjected to fast or slow drying to moisture contents of 17 or 20% (wet basis), cooled in different ways, and then immersed in liquid nitrogen for 24 hours. Different rewarming times in a water bath were also used. Physiological, biochemical and ultrastructural analyses were performed on the seeds after the cryopreservation steps. Moisture content at a 17% wb is the key factor for the cryopreservation of Coffea arabica L. seeds, which have better physiological quality and better preserved cell structures. Precooling of coffee seeds before immersion in liquid nitrogen does not provide advantages compared to direct immersion. The rewarming times tested (2, 4, and 6 minutes) and cathode water use did not cause changes in the physiological and biochemical quality or in the cell structures of Coffea arabica L. cryopreserved seeds. The pattern of cell structure observed in all seeds indicates that the damage from cryopreservation is less drastic in the cells of the embryos than in those of the endosperm, with the latter less tolerant to the stresses of dehydration, precooling, and rewarming.

Settlement-based cost optimization of geogrid-reinforced pile-supported foundation
Authors: Chen C. , Mao F. , Zhang G. , Huang J. , Zornberg J.G. , Liang X. , Chen J.
Published: March 2021

Cost optimization of Geogrid-Reinforced Pile-Supported Foundation (GRPSF) requires the minimum construction cost among all design alternatives within both ultimate limit state (ULS) and serviceability limit state (SLS) criteria. Usually, the optimization is conducted by selecting a limited number of design alternatives based on experience and then comparing them, which often does not lead to the real optimal design. This paper presents a novel optimization framework to systematically determine the design parameters to achieve the minimum construction cost for GRPSF, considering both ULS and SLS constraints that are relevant to post-construction performance and constructability. This framework is a hybrid of surrogate modeling and Finite Element Method (FEM) to calculate the post-construction settlement of GRPSF and search for the optimal design. Genetic Algorithm improved Black Hole Algorithm (BH-GA) was developed to determine the optimal values of design variables, including pile length and spacing, pile cap geometry, and geogrid layers and layout. The proposed approach can quickly identify the optimal design by exhausting all possible combinations of design parameters. Two well-documented case histories of GRPSF were redesigned using this framework, which validated its applicability and effectiveness in optimizing the design of GRPSF.
Compressibility and cracking properties of soft soils treated with a polymeric stabiliser
Authors: Soltani-Jigheh Hossein , Bagheri Mohammad
Published: March 2021

The influence of polyacrylamide (PAM) on the mechanical and physical characteristics of two kinds of soft soils was investigated laboratory tests including consistency, standard Proctor compaction, incremental loading consolidation and desiccation tests were conducted on the untreated and treated soils. Based on results, addition of PAM caused a reduction in the soils' plasticity indices. Although adding PAM slightly increased the maximum dry density, it had a negligible impact on the optimum moisture content. An increase in PAM content reduced compressibility, initial void ratio, compression and swelling indices, coefficient of consolidation and permeability. Adding PAM caused the cracking potential of soils to decrease. Moreover, to have a better interpretation of the stabilisation mechanism as well as the microstructural changes induced by PAM, the field emission scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction analyses were conducted on the soils. The results demonstrated that the PAM additive enables physical bonding between soil particles rather than chemical reactions. In other words, PAM does not change the soil in terms of the atomic structure of clay particles, rather it alters the whole structure of the clay mass by accumulating particles and creating a strong connection network between them by flocculating the aggregates.
Interaction between image and text during the process of biblical art reception
Authors: Hardiess Gregor , Weissert Caecilie
Published: March 2021

In our exploratory study, we ask how naive observers, without a distinct religious background, approach biblical art that combines image and text. For this purpose, we choose the book ‘New biblical figures of the Old and New Testament’ published in 1569 as source of the stimuli. This book belongs to the genre of illustrated Bibles, which were very popular during the Reformation. Since there is no empirical knowledge regarding the interaction between image and text during the process of such biblical art reception, we selected four relevant images from the book and measured the eye movements of participants in order to characterize and quantify their scanning behavior related to such stimuli in terms of i) looking at text (text usage), ii) text vs. image interaction measures (semantic or contextual relevance of text), and iii) narration. We show that texts capture attention early in the process of inspection and that text and image interact. Moreover, semantics of texts are used to guide eye movements later through the image, supporting the formation of the narrative.
Juventud y salud cardiovascular: ¿Qué factores de riesgo debemos tener en cuenta para intervenir?
Authors: Lozada-Martinez Ivan David , Bolaño-Romero Maria Paz
Published: March 2021

Introducción: Actualmente el Infarto Agudo de Miocardio es la principal causa de mortalidad precoz a nivel global, observándose un aumento en la incidencia y prevalencia de esta entidad en los últimos años entre las personas más jóvenes, específicamente, menores de 40 años. La presencia de factores de riesgo cardiovasculares tradicionales en adultos jóvenes, tiene la misma predicción de mortalidad por enfermedad coronaria ateroesclerótica en comparación con adultos mayores. Métodos: Se llevó a cabo una revisión no sistemática de la literatura, utilizando términos de búsqueda tales como “Riesgo Cardiovascular” y “Jóvenes”, además de sinónimos, los cuales fueron combinados con los operadores “AND” y “OR”, en las bases de datos PubMed, ScienceDirect, Embase, EBSCO, y MEDLINE. Resultados: Es necesario reconocer y mitigar la presencia de factores de riesgo en adultos jóvenes de manera sistemática y precisa, no solo enfocándose en el grupo de los factores tradicionales (tabaquismo, dislipidemia, obesidad central, hipertensión arterial, diabetes mellitus, dieta hiperglúcida/hipersódica, actividad física irregular o nula), de los cuales el tabaquismo y la dislipidemia han demostrado mayor impacto negativo, sino también en los factores emergentes (estrés crónico, consumo de bebidas energéticas, consumo de sustancias psicoactivas), siendo el más importante el consumo de sustancias psicoactivas, posicionándose la cocaína como factor esencial. Conclusiones: El hecho de que las enfermedades cardiometabólica estén aumentando su incidencia de forma desproporcional, presentándose cada vez en edades más tempranas, obliga a cambiar el enfoque real que se observa en el día a día durante la práctica clínica.
Experimental Research of Drying Characteristics of Red Banana in a Single Slope Direct Solar Dryer Based on Natural and Forced Convection
Authors: Elangovan Elavarasan , Natarajan Sendhil Kumar
Published: March 2021

Research background. Traditionally, open sun drying method serves to dry the products for long time preservation. Solar drying is also employed to minimise the drying time to achieve the required moisture content. This method inherently contains complex heat and mass transfer mechanism, which makes difficult to describe drying kinetics at the micro level.

Experimental approach. In this present paper, research is carried out to investigate the drying of 5 mm thick slices of red banana (Musa acuminata “Red Dacca”) in a single slope solar dryer based on natural and forced convection. Based on the experiments, a new semi-empirical thin layer drying kinetics is proposed and compared with other existing models. The proposed model with the correlation coefficient (R2) of 0.997 is in very good agreement with other well-known models. Based on the model, we calculated the moisture diffusivity and activation energy of the red banana drying process.

Results and conclusions. It is found that the moisture diffusivity of the red banana samples was in the range of 8.74·10-10-1.56·10-9 m2/s for natural convection solar drying and 8.43·10-9-2.61·10-8 m2/s for forced convection solar drying. The activation energy of the red banana varied from 24.58 to 45.20 kJ/mol for passive and 22.56 to 35.49 kJ/mol for active drying. Besides, we carried out energy and exergy analysis of red banana in the dryers and found that the average exergy losses for the forced and natural convections were 16.1 and 6.63 kJ/kg and the average exergic efficiency of the natural and forced convection dryers was 57.7 and 70.9 %, respectively.

Novelty and scientific contribution. A single slope direct solar dryer was designed and built to maintain the desired temperature for a specified period in both natural and forced convection mode. A novel drying kinetics model with higher correlation coefficient (R2) than the other drying kinetic models is proposed for the preservation of red bananas.

Published: March 2021

Цель - оценка территориального развития субъектов Российской федерации на основе экспертного метода в регионе наиболее эксплуатируемого западного участка трассы Северного морского пути. Методы. В статье рассмотрен один из методов экспертной оценки территориального развития субъектов Российской Федерации западного участка трассы Северного морского пути на примере пяти арктических приморских регионов – Мурманской области, Архангельской области, Республики Карелия, Ненецкого и Ямало-Ненецкого автономных округов. Использованы три подсистемы общего геоэкологического арктического пространства Российской Федерации: природно-экологическая, экономико-экологическая и социально-экологическая. Оценка проводилась по альтернативной пятибалльной шкале. Критерии экспертной оценки – подсистемная соразмерность и приближенность гармоничному эколого-социально-экономическому развитию. Результаты обобщены в табличной и графической форме. Экспертная сравнительная оценка арктических приморских субъектов западного участка трассы Северного морского пути позволила выявить регионы с разной степенью территориального развития. Она определяет подсистемную координатную соразмерность и приближенность к идеальной области гармоничного эколого-социально-экономического развития каждого из пяти регионов. Результаты экспертной оценки показали, что в сравнении пяти субъектов России траектория территориального развития Мурманской области более сбалансирована, но все пять регионов пока далеки от показателей, характеризующих гармоничное развитие. Заключение. В спектре методологических подходов к оценке сложных социо-эколого-экономических приморских систем применение данного метода представляется наиболее приемлемым для получения практически значимых результатов.

Lenvatinib and pembrolizumab in patients with advanced uterine cancer
Authors: Kedrova A. G. , Berishvili A. I. , Greyan Т. А.
Published: March 2021

Uterine cancer is one of the few cancers with an increasing incidence and mortality rate in developed countries, which partly reflects the increasing prevalence of obesity and aging of the female population. Despite the fact that uterine cancer is usually diagnosed when lesions have affected only the uterine body, searching for new treatment regimens for advanced disease remains highly relevant due to unsatisfactory results of chemotherapy and high mortality among women with stage III–IV uterine cancer. In this article, we discuss the main aspects of using lenvatinib and pembrolizumab that have been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), and Ministry of Health of Canada (HC). The lenvatinib + pembrolizumab scheme showed its efficacy (38.3 % objective responses) and safety (grade III and IV adverse events were reported in 83 (66.9%) of 124 patients) in 94 patients with advanced endometrial cancer whose tumors did not show signs of microsatellite instability (MSI) and defective DNA mismatch repair system. In 25 (69 %) patients who responded to treatment, the time to response was more than 6 months. In this article, we also report a case of progressive uterine cancer in a patient, who benefited from therapy with the combination of lenvatinib and pembrolizumab. We also describe adverse events of such therapy and ways of their management.
Distributed Acoustic Sensing Using Dark Fiber for Array Detection of Regional Earthquakes
Authors: Nayak Avinash , Ajo-Franklin Jonathan ,   the Imperial Valley Dark Fiber Team
Published: March 2021

The intrinsic array nature of distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) makes it suitable for applying beamforming techniques commonly used in traditional seismometer arrays for enhancing weak and coherent seismic phases from distant seismic events. We test the capacity of a dark-fiber DAS array in the Sacramento basin, northern California, to detect small earthquakes at The Geysers geothermal field, at a distance of ∼100  km from the DAS array, using beamforming. We use a slowness range appropriate for ∼0.5–1.0  Hz surface waves that are well recorded by the DAS array. To take advantage of the large aperture, we divide the ∼20  km DAS cable into eight subarrays of aperture ∼1.5–2.0  km each, and apply beamforming independently to each subarray using phase-weighted stacking. The presence of subarrays of different orientations provides some sensitivity to back azimuth. We apply a short-term average/long-term average detector to the beam at each subarray. Simultaneous detections over multiple subarrays, evaluated using a voting scheme, are inferred to be caused by the same earthquake, whereas false detections caused by anthropogenic noise are expected to be localized to one or two subarrays. Analyzing 45 days of continuous DAS data, we were able to detect all earthquakes with M≥2.4, while missing most of the smaller magnitude earthquakes, with no false detections due to seismic noise. In comparison, a single broadband seismometer co-located with the DAS array was unable to detect any earthquake of M<2.4, many of which were detected successfully by the DAS array. The seismometer also experienced a large number of false detections caused by spatially localized noise. We demonstrate that DAS has significant potential for local and regional detection of small seismic events using beamforming. The ubiquitous presence of dark fiber provides opportunities to extend remote earthquake monitoring to sparsely instrumented and urban areas.
The Modern Swedish National Seismic Network: Two Decades of Intraplate Microseismic Observation
Authors: Lund Björn , Schmidt Peter , Hossein Shomali Zaher , Roth Michael
Published: March 2021

The Swedish National Seismic Network (SNSN) was modernized and rapidly expanded during the period 1998–2012. The network currently operates 68 permanent seismic stations, all with broadband instruments supplying real-time continuous data at 100 samples per second. Continuous data from 10 stations are shared with the international community via Orfeus, and approximately 10 stations of their individual choice are shared with institutes in neighboring countries (Denmark, Finland, Norway, and Germany). The SNSN uses the South Iceland Lowland (SIL) system as the primary system for automatic detection and event definition. In addition, an in-house system based on migration and stacking is used for automatic detection of small events, and implementations of SeisComP (SC) and Earthworm are used primarily for rapid detection of larger regional events. Global monitoring is performed with SC, using approximately 250 global stations, and we operate a continuous rapid risk assessment system serving Swedish crisis management authorities. Since the start of automatic processing in August 2000, the SNSN has recorded and interactively analyzed more than 171,000 seismic events, of which 10,700 were earthquakes with local magnitudes ranging from around −1 to 4.3. The microearthquake activity detected in the last 20 yr has significantly improved the identification and understanding of seismically active structures in Sweden.
Exploring the predictor of innovative teaching using the job demands-resources model
Authors: Rafsanjani M. A. , Hakim L. , Laily N. , Wijaya P. A. , Irwansyah M. R.
Published: March 2021

Introduction. To keep in pace and remain competitive in today's environment, the lecturer must do innovation in educational process. However, encouraging lecturers' willingness to do innovative teaching is challenging in higher education due to the dual roles as teachers and researchers, which makes the excessive workload and leads to the teacher-researcher role conflict (TRC). Therefore, it is crucial to analyse the impact of TRC on the innovative teaching of lecturers. The present study utilises the job demands-resources (JDR) model due to its high popularity but rarely used in higher education.Aim. This study is aimed to explore the predictor of innovative teaching by utilising the JDR model as a theoretical anchor.Methodology and research methods. This study uses structural equation modelling (SEM) to examine the research model on a random sample of 233 respondents.Results. The results indicated that teacher-researcher role conflict negatively predicted the innovative teaching of the lecturer. Besides, the occupational well-being is a mediating variable to explain the influence of teacher-researcher role conflict on innovative teaching.Scientific novelty. This study reveals innovative teaching predictors in higher education by using the JDR model as a theoretical anchor. The authors found out that teacher-researcher role conflict (TRC) was significantly related to innovative teaching.

Authors: Mikhailova Elena V.
Published: March 2021

Using the concept of “practice of mediatization of consumption”, the article analyzes trends in the transformation of consumption in the digital era. The concept of "mediatization of consumption" is compared with the virtualization and commercialization of consumption. The practices of mediatization of consumption are highlighted on the basis of a qualitative analysis of the blogosphere of modern Russian-speaking YouTube and classified in accordance with the basic model of the cycle of individual consumption by R. Blackwell, P. Miniard, J. Angel. Conclusion made on the scale of the spread of media consumption practices and the significant involvement of YouTube users in them. Using examples of specific YouTube channels and video content with a consumer theme, it is shown that by now YouTube has formed and offers users a media environment for implementing a closed cycle of consumption - from the stage of recognizing a product to its public consumption and getting rid of it. It is stated that the widespread occurrence of the phenomenon of mediatization of consumption has created a new context for many Internet users. The peculiarities of this new context are the shifting of the traditional boundaries of privacy, the expansion of the audience watching consumption to an indefinite set. The most important aspect of the phenomenon of mediatized consumption is the possibility of its conversion into financial resources, that is, in essence - the commercialization of consumption.
On the specific graphic, orthographic and morphological features of the usus of the monastic scriptoria of Nuremberg in the 15th century
Authors: Gavriusheva Alexandra E.
Published: March 2021

The article examines the graphic, spelling and morphological features characteristic for medieval texts created in Nuremberg. The study involves spiritual literature created in various Nuremberg scriptoria. Each investigated text is considered as an integral and independent graphic and spelling system, consisting of interrelated elements. Following features presented in the studied manuscripts are revealed in the course of the analysis of the texts: the Middle and Early New High German features, features characteristic of the Southeastern, East Frankish and Nuremberg dialects, as well as the spelling features. The reasons for the differences between the graphic and spelling systems of the studied texts from the phonetic system of Early New High German and intertextual differences are subject to interpretation. The analysis of the scriptoria peculiarities makes it possible to determine the place of graphic and orthographic systems in the context of Early New High German linguistic dynamics, as well as the degree of influence of various dialects on them. When considering the graphic and orthographic features of the studied texts, the specificity of the written fixation of Early New High German is taken into account as well as the fact that the urban written language and the urban dialect are different sources of influence on the formation of the written tradition of each scriptorium. This study allows to conclude about the degree of independence of the graphic and spelling systems of manuscripts and about the usability of the norms of the written language of the period under study.
El impacto del cuidado territorial en el tratamiento de personas diagnosticadas con esquizofrenia y trastornos delirantes en una comunidad en Río de Janeiro

Published: March 2021

El cuidado de personas diagnosticadas con trastornos esquizofrénicos y delirantes representa un desafío, especialmente, en territorios de gran vulnerabilidad social. En Río de Janeiro, con la promulgación de la Ley Federal 10216 de 2001 sobre la Reforma Psiquiátrica, las últimas dos décadas se han caracterizado por la transición del modelo centrado en el hospital al modelo basado en los servicios comunitarios. Utilizando el caso de una comunidad de Río de Janeiro, se seleccionaron cinco servicios de salud pública y se extrajeron datos de los registros médicos de 94 pacientes con diagnósticos de esquizofrenia, trastornos esquizotípicos y trastornos delirantes (codificados en la Clasificación Internacional de Enfermedades 10 edición entre los códigos F20 a F29) y se analizaron indicadores de calidad del tratamiento ofrecido en el período 2003-2016. Como resultado de la transición se observa que los hospitales psiquiátricos quedaron casi vacíos con un bajo número de pacientes actualmente desatendidos. Además, la atención a la crisis y las hospitalizaciones a largo plazo se reemplazaron por la atención territorial y las comorbilidades clínicas se monitorean y se tratan en unidades de salud familiar.

BACKGROUND Mucinous ovarian tumours have various histomorphological patterns. Histopathological examination plays an important role in classifying ovarian tumours for prognosis and better treatment. Mucinous ovarian tumours are classified into benign cystadenomas, borderline mucinous tumours and malignant mucinous cystadenocarcinomas. This study was done to evaluate the distribution of ovarian tumours with respect to various parameters like age, laterality, size, loculation, stratification of cells, nuclear atypia, to study the gross morphological patterns of the various histopathological tumour types and evaluate the association between various parameters of ovarian tumours and risk of malignancy. METHODS A cross sectional study was conducted in the Department of Pathology, in a tertiary health care centre over a period of 5 years. The study includes cases of mucinous cystadenomas, borderline mucinous tumours and cystadenocarcinomas. Formalin fixed and paraffin embedded sections were reviewed. Data was collected & entered in Microsoft Office Excel 2007 sheet. RESULTS Among 32 cases of mucinous tumours studied 15 are mucinous cystadenomas, 10 are borderline tumours and 7 are cystadenocarcinomas. The mean age is 45 years. 1 case of mucinous cystadenocarcinoma showed bilateralism. 68.8 % of the tumours were more than 15 cms in size. 72 % of the tumours were multiloculated and 28 % were uniloculated. 78.1 % of the tumours have stratification of less than 4 cell-thickness. 46.9 % of tumours had no nuclear atypia, 31.2 % had mild atypia and 21.9 had severe nuclear atypia. CONCLUSIONS Benign cystadenomas were more common than malignant and borderline tumours. The mean age of presentation was 45 years.
