Geminispermum, an Early Cretaceous (early–middle Albian) cupulate unit from the angiosperm-dominated Puddledock flora of eastern North America
Authors: Friis Else Marie , Crane Peter R. , Pedersen Kaj Raunsgaard 
Published: December 2019

Abstract
A new genus and species, Geminispermum virginiense, is described based on a well-preserved coalified cupulate reproductive unit recovered from the Early Cretaceous (early–middle Albian) Puddledock locality, Virginia, U.S.A. The reproductive unit is bisymmetrical and consists of an axis that bifurcates into two cupule-bearing stalks, each in the axil of a bract. Each cupule stalk bears a single non-valvate cupule recurved towards the center of the reproductive unit. The cupule opens distally by a short transverse slit with a distinct upper margin. Each cupule almost completely encloses a single orthotropous seed that is free from the cupule except at the base. The nucellus is also free from the integument except at the basal point of attachment. Geminispermum combines features of the ovulate structures of Caytoniales, Umkomasiales (= Corystospermales, including Doyleales) and Petriellales, but cannot be included in any of these existing orders as they are currently understood. The recurved, closed, non-valvate cupules are particularly similar to those of Caytonia, Petriellaea and Reymanownaea in external morphology, but differ in being one-seeded. The cupules of Geminispermum differ from the one-seeded cupules of Umkomasiales in being non-valvate and in having only a single cupule per bract. Geminispermum is perhaps most similar to the one- or two-seeded non-valvate cupules of Ktalenia from the Early Cretaceous of Argentina, but Ktalenia is poorly preserved, details of cupule architecture are uncertain, and the cupules appear to be associated with a single strongly dissected bract. Geminispermum is currently the only unequivocal seed plant cupule recovered from the Early Cretaceous Potomac Group and is distinct from all previously described cupulate reproductive structures.
Evaluation of mobile applications for fitness training and physical activity in healthy low-trained people - A modular interdisciplinary framework
Authors: Wiemeyer Josef 
Published: December 2019

Abstract
Numerous mobile applications are available that aim at supporting sustainable physical activity and fitness training in sedentary or low-trained healthy people. However, the evaluation of the quality of these applications often suffers from severe shortcomings such as reduction to selective aspects, lack of theory or suboptimal methods. What is still missing, is a framework that integrates the insights of the relevant scientific disciplines.
In this paper, we propose an integrative framework comprising four modules: training, behavior change techniques, sensors and technology, and evaluation of effects. This framework allows to integrate insights from training science, exercise physiology, social psychology, computer science, and civil engineering as well as methodology. Furthermore, the framework can be flexibly adapted to the specific features of the mobile applications, e.g., regarding training goals and training methods or the relevant behavior change techniques as well as formative or summative evaluation.

Authors: Sathiyanathan S. , Selvapandiyan M. 
Published: December 2019

Abstract
Nonlinear optical single crystals of L-histidine nitrate (LHN) as well as 0.05 mol % Y2+ doped LHN and 0.10 mol % Y2+ doped LHN were successfully grown by slow evaporation technique at room temperature. The lower cutoff wavelength and transmittance were 339 nm, 343 nm, 347 nm and 84 %, 86 % and 87 % for LHN, 0.05 mol % and 0.10 mol % yttrium doped LHN, respectively. Powder XRD studies revealed that the grown materials belong to an orthorhombic system with the space group P212121. FT-IR peak at 534 cm−1 due to yttrium coordinated with oxygen was observed. The EDAX analysis confirmed the presence of such elements as C, N, O and Y in the grown materials. High intensity PL emission peak was obtained at 420 nm.

Abstract
Mg0.95Ni0.05Ti0.98Zr0.02O3 and CaTiO3 were prepared separately using solid state reaction method. The effect of CaTiO3 addition on the microwave dielectric properties of Mg0.95Ni0.05Ti0.98Zr0.02O3 was investigated to get low loss and temperature stable ceramics in (1 – x)Mg0.95Ni0.05Ti0.98Zr0.02O3-xCaTiO3 series. Mg0.95Ni0.05Ti0.98Zr0.02O3 formed as the major phase along with Mg0.95Ni0.05Ti2O5 phase that formed as minor secondary phase for the composition with x = 0. Microwave dielectric properties ∈r ~ 17.1, Qufo of 195,855 GHz and τf of –46.3 ppm/°C were obtained for the composition with x = 0. The positive τf value of CaTiO3, tuned the τf value of Mg0.95Ni0.05Ti0.98Zr0.02O3 through zero and ∈r ~ 28.4, Qufo ~ 108,775 GHz and τf ~ 3.1 ppm/°C were attained for x = 0.15 in this study. This composition is the best choice for high frequency applications.
Breeding, dispersal, migration and conservation of the Black-winged Stilt (Himantopus himantopus) in Hungary

Published: December 2019

Abstract

The Black-winged Stilt was the bird of the year in Hungary in 2019. The population of the species increased from 20–25 breeding pairs to 550–680 pairs from 1980s to the present. 75–85% of the Hungarian population bred on effluent pools for pigs and settling pools at sugar beet factories in the first half of 1990s. There were significantly more breeding pairs in Hungary in 1999 compared to previous years, and finally 871 breeding pairs of Black-winged Stilts were documented in 2000 and the Hungarian population was estimated at 940–960 pairs. There were 550–680 breeding pairs in Hungary between 2015 and 2017. Significantly more clutches had more than five eggs in the sampled colonies during the influx in 2000 than in the egg collections before 1971 or in the sampled colony in 2008 as well. First arrivals reached Hungary between 5 and 20 March (median: 15 March) between 2005 and 2019. These arrival dates fall approximately a month earlier than the former arrival dates in mid-April during the 1980s. 470 Black-winged Stilts were observed in a single flock during post-breeding dispersal, this flock was the largest ever documented in Hungary. Stilts left Hungary by the first half of September in the 1980s, and in contrast, they left Hungary between 27 August and 4 January (median: 19 October) between 2005 and 2019. Recently, the most departure dates fall one and a half to three months later compared to the departure dates in the 1980s. Black-winged Stilts marked in Hungary disperse in the Carpathian Basin during their post-fledging/post-breeding dispersal. Based on ring readings of two individuals, they start to migrate southwest with stopover sites in Italy, but their wintering areas are unknown. Stilts hatched in Portugal (one individual) and France (two individuals) bred in Hungary during the large influxes in 1999 and 2000. Five Black-winged Stilts hatched in Italy were observed later in Hungary and are supposed to be breeders in Hungary in most cases. Furthermore, one individual captured as an adult in Spain and two trapped in Italy were observed in Hungary. The Hungarian population of Black-winged Stilt is threatened by predation on eggs and chicks, drainage of wetlands, and also by human-induced flooding of artificial wetlands (e.g. fishponds). Stilts regularly occupy artificial breeding islands the first years after habitat restoration. The Hungarian population of Black-winged Stilts is increasing due to habitat management with grazing animals, especially with Mangalica ‘Woolly’ Pigs and Water Buffalos.
The genus Parmotrema (Parmeliaceae, lecanoromycetes) in the Galapagos Islands
Authors: Bungartz Frank , Spielmann Adriano A. 
Published: December 2019

AbstractAs part of an ongoing comprehensive inventory of all Galapagos lichens, the genus Parmotrema has been revised. In Galapagos this genus is represented by thirty-five species, seven described as new to science: Parmotrema cactacearum, P. erectociliatum, P. lawreyi, P. marcellianum, P. pustulotinctum, P. saxoisidiatum and P. weberi. Parmotrema weberi, although previously informally recognized by Mason E. Hale, is now formally described here, the name thus validated. Reports of four species are doubtful or incorrect. Nine species are reported from the Galapagos for the first time, seven of those being also new for Ecuador. Parmotrema cooperi, previously known only from Central America, is now also reported from South America. Detailed descriptions and illustrations are provided for all thirty-five species, together with a dichotomic key for their identification. Diagnostic differences are discussed. If all newly described species are confirmed as endemic to the archipelago, the proportion of endemism within Parmotrema appears to be similar to most other groups of lichens recently reviewed.
House Price Convergence on the Primary and Secondary Markets: Evidence from Polish Provincial Capitals
Authors: Tomal Mateusz 
Published: December 2019

Abstract
The aim of this study is to identify whether there is a common house price trend across provincial capitals in Poland. The log t regression is the main method of analysis. Additionally, traditional convergence tests based on the concepts of β- and σ-convergence are used. The obtained results indicate that the cities do not share a common price in the long-run. There are, however, convergence clubs on both primary and secondary markets. In each club, house prices across cities tend to converge to their own steady state. Moreover, research on the driving forces of convergence reports that factors affecting housing prices differ among the clubs. Therefore, policymakers should adjust housing policies in accordance with the characteristics of a given club. In turn, the σ-convergence model demonstrated a very interesting finding, namely, a U-shape pattern of convergence, both on the primary and secondary markets. This pattern is strictly correlated with the level of prices on the markets.

Published: December 2019

Tylenchulus semipenetrans causes serious damages related to decline on citrus in Cao Phong district, Hoa Binh province. This study evaluated the effects of EM, AMF, AT+Ketomium and Chitosan-Super in the control of nematodes. In the laboratory condition, the T. semipenetrans was isolated from the soil and assessed for survival in the liquid medium containing EM and Chitosan-Super. The larval mortality rate reached 98.57% after 72 hours when using Chitosan-Super at 2% concentration. For pot experiments, T. semipenetrans and bioinoculants were infected into Hoa Binh red grapefruit rhizospheres. The results indicated that nematode density in the soil decreased the most in CT5 (Chitosan-Super), followed by CT4 (AT+Ketomium), CT3 (AMF+EM) and CT1 (AMF), CT2 (EM); nematode density in roots was the highest at CT5 of 132±27 individuals/5g of roots, while in CT1 there was no parasitic nematode on the red grapefruit root though its density in soil was high (2.424±125 individuals/250g of soil). Citrus grew normally in all of the experience formulas. Research results are an important basis for effective use of bioinoculants in preventing nematode parasitic on citrus.

Published: December 2019

Este artigo objetiva identificar se as maternidades que prestam assistência ao parto pelo SUS em Anápolis e Goiânia dispõem dos materiais recomendados pelas atuais Diretrizes do Programa de Reanimação Neonatal da Sociedade Brasileira de Pediatria. Esse é um estudo descritivo, transversal, por inquérito. Para levantamento dos dados, foi aplicado um questionário, baseado na diretriz supracitada, especificamente nos checklists de “Material necessário para reanimação neonatal na sala de parto” e “Material necessário para cada mesa de reanimação”. Nesta pesquisa foram abordadas 5 maternidades. Os dados obtidos apontam que as maternidades possuem 79,8% do material considerado necessário pela SBP. O grupo de materiais que se encontra com maior desfalque é o grupo dos instrumentos para garantir a manutenção da temperatura corporal dos recém-nascidos. Os materiais ausentes são essenciais na assistência ao nascimento de recém-nascidos saudáveis e também daqueles com complicações, podendo ser um fator determinante na sobrevivência dessas crianças. A partir desses dados, procura-se provocar uma reflexão por parte de maternidades, gestores, comunidade científica e população em geral, sobre a atual condição da disponibilidade de recursos materiais para a reanimação neonatal nesses municípios, visando estimular, se necessárias, possíveis melhorias na assistência desses recém-nascidos.
Serum 25-Hydroxyvitamin D Deficiency and Insufficiency are Associated with Ankle-Brachial Index but not Arterial Stiffness in an Elderly Community-dwelling Chinese Population

Published: December 2019

AbstractVitamin D deficiency may increase arterial stiffness, a sub-clinical symptom of Target Organ Damage (TOD). This study aimed to investigate the associations between total serum vitamin D level and arterial stiffness assessed by brachial-ankle Pulse Wave Velocity (baPWV) and atherosclerosis assessed by Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) in a Chinese community-dwelling elderly cohort. About 175 elderly participants (91 males and 84 females) were recruited. The levels of total serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D], blood glucose, lipids and pressure were determined with clinical tests. We found 87.4% of elderly Chinese showed vitamin D deficiency (<20 ng/mL) and insufficiency (21–29 ng/mL). For these patients, the total 25(OH)D was positively correlated with right (r = 0.230, p = 0.004) and left ABI (r = 0.212, p = 0.008), whereas there was no correlation with right and left baPWV (r = −0.136 and −0.137, p = 0.092 and 0.089, respectively). In univariate linear regression, total serum 25(OH)D was positively associated with left and right ABI (p < 0.05). Multivariate regression suggested total serum 25(OH)D was independently correlated with the left and right ABI with adjustment for sex, age and Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP). No significant association between total serum 25(OH)D level and baPWV was found. The study suggested that serum total 25(OH)D may be favorably associated with ABI in the elderly population with vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency; however, it may not correlated with arterial stiffness measured by baPWV. More prospective larger scale studies are warranted to validate these findings.
