Abstract
The effectiveness of biodiversity conservation interventions is often dependent on local resource users' underlying social interactions. However, it remains unclear how fine-scale differences in information shared between resource users can influence network structure and the success of behaviour-change interventions. We investigate this knowledge gap by comparing information-sharing networks in a fishing community in Peru where a trial conservation intervention is underway to reduce the incidental capture of sea turtles (bycatch). We show that the general network structure detailing information sharing about sea turtle bycatch differs from other fishing-related information sharing, specifically in degree assortativity (homophily) and eccentricity. This finding highlights that fine-scale differences in the information shared between resource users may influence network structure.

Abstract
The formation process of myrmekites in granitic rocks can help us to understand the mass transfer between minerals and hydrothermal fluids during the deuteric stage. The Toki granite, central Japan, has three types of myrmekites. Type A myrmekite is defined as a single layer. Type B myrmekite shows a composite texture consisting of two layers, namely, a myrmekite layer and an albite (Ab)-rich layer that is free of vermicular quartz. Type C has a composite texture with the following three layers: two myrmekite layers separated by one Ab-rich layer. Micropores are found in these myrmekites in the undeformed granite, which enable quantitative determinations of the volume decrease during myrmekite formation by measurement of the area of micropores. The areal relationship between the micropores and vermicular quartz in the myrmekites exhibited a high correlation (R2 = 0.8352), thus indicating that the genesis of the micropores is evidently related to myrmekite formation. We derived the reaction equations for myrmekite formation based on the singular value decomposition method. The matrices for singular value decomposition involve the following volume factors: volume change during the reaction and volume ratios of the product minerals. The singular value decomposition indicates that the myrmekites are produced through the consumption of plagioclase and K-feldspar with an inflow of H4SiO4, Na+, and H+ from the hydrothermal fluid, accompanied by an outflow of Al3+, Ca2+, and K+ into the fluid, which constitute essential mass transfers during myrmekite formation. The difference of pH in the hydrothermal fluid and inflow amounts of H4SiO4 and Na+ can explain the reason why micropores occur in the myrmekites but not in the Ab-rich rim (layer); the smaller inflow of H4SiO4 and Na+ from the hydrothermal fluid with lower pH conditions yielded micropore production during myrmekitization, and the larger inflow of H4SiO4 and Na+ from the hydrothermal fluid with higher pH conditions yielded the formation of the Ab-rich rim (layer) with few micropores. The sequential variations in the chemical characteristics of the hydrothermal fluid during the sub-solidus conditions were characterized by a gradual decrease in H4SiO4 (Si4+), Fe2+, Mn2+, Mg2+, and Na+ and a gradual increase in Ca2+, K+, H+, and F–.

Published: March 2021

Vibration analysis is generally used in the industries for condition monitoring of various electromechanical equipment. For the predictive maintenance of the industry equipment, several techniques have been applied which are based on capacitive and piezoelectric accelerometers. However, they possess several real time problems due to the negative influence of electromagnetic interference. The major problem lies in the detection and transmission of various physical parameters in the noisy and harsh environment. In order to solve the weak points of commonly used structural vibration detection sensors that are easily affected by the harsh environment of the engineering site, the principle of optical fiber sensing is studied, and the system optical path is designed based on MZ interference technology. In this work, a special data acquisition and processing software is developed to acquire the sensed data and the vibration detection is carried out on the steel cantilever structure pasted with fiber optic sensors. Extraction using FFT and pattern recognition through bp neural network yields the system accuracy rate of 96.7 %. The proposed interference type optical fiber technology provides a novel approach for real-time monitoring of engineering structure vibration laying the foundation for the research of intelligent buildings.

Abstract
A three-dimensional rating index system for water resources system–water environment system–socioeconomic system is constructed based on data from Hunan Dongting Lake Eco-environment Monitoring Center, Hunan Provincial Water Resources Bulletin, and Hunan Statistical Yearbook. The water resources carrying capacity (WRCC) of Dongting Lake Basin from 2009 to 2018 is evaluated by the TOPSIS model combined with analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and entropy weight, and then the temporal evolution and spatial distribution characteristics of the WRCC of the Dongting Lake Basin are analyzed. The results show that: (1) The WRCC in the Dongting Lake Basin decreases from a good level to a reasonable level during the period. Among them, the WRCC of the Ouchi River, Hudu River, and Songzi River Basins decreases significantly. (2) There are obvious spatial differences in the WRCC of the Dongting Lake Basin in 2018, the WRCC order is Lishui River, West Dongting Lake, Zijiang River, South Dongting Lake, Yuanshui River, Xiangjiang River, East Dongting Lake, Songzi River, Hudu River, Ouchi River, with scores of 0.586, 0.526, 0.472, 0.448, 0.416, 0.397, 0.393, 0.313, 0.306, and 0.304, respectively. Finally, some policy recommendations for improving the WRCC of the Dongting Lake Basin are proposed.
Synergistic effect of carboxyl and sulfate groups for effective removal of radioactive strontium ion in a Zr-metal-organic framework

Published: March 2021

Abstract
Rapid removal of radioactive strontium from nuclear wastewater is of great significance for environmental safety and human health. This work reports the effective adsorption of strontium ion in a stable dual-group metal-organic framework, Zr6(OH)14(BDC-(COOH)2)4(SO4)0.75 (Zr-BDC-COOH-SO4), which contains strontium-chelating groups (-COOH and SO4) and a strongly ionizable group (-COOH). Zr-BDC-COOH-SO4 exhibits very rapid adsorption kinetics (&lt;5 min) and a maximum adsorption capacity of 67.5 mg g−1. The adsorption behaviors can be well fitted to the pseudo-second-order model and the Langmuir isotherm model. Further investigations indicate that the adsorption of Sr2+ onto Zr-BDC-COOH-SO4 would not be obviously affected by solution pH and adsorption temperature. The feasible regeneration of the adsorbent was also demonstrated using a simple elution method. Mechanism investigation suggests that free -COOH contributes to the rapid adsorption based on electrostatic interaction, while the introduction of -SO4 significantly enhanced the adsorption capacity. Thus, these results suggest that Zr-BDC-COOH-SO4 is a potential candidate for Sr2+ removal. They also introduce dual groups as an effective strategy for designing high-efficiency adsorbents.
In silico Screening of Phytoconstituents with Antiviral Activities Against SARS-COV-2 Main Protease, Nsp12 Polymerase, and Nsp13 Helicase Proteins
Authors: James Jainey Puthenveettil , Jyothi Divya , Priya Sneh 
Published: March 2021

Aims:
The present study aimed to analyse the molecular interactions of the
phytoconstituents known for their antiviral activity with the SARS-CoV-2 nonstructural proteins
such as main protease (6LU7), Nsp12 polymerase (6M71), and Nsp13 helicase (6JYT). The
applied in silico methodologies were molecular docking and pharmacophore modeling using
Schrodinger software.

Methods:
The phytoconstituents were taken from PubChem, and SARS-CoV-2 proteins were
downloaded from the protein data bank. The molecular interactions, binding energy, ADMET
properties, and pharmacophoric features were analysed by glide XP, prime MM-GBSA, qikprop,
and phase application of Schrodinger, respectively. The antiviral activity of the selected
phytoconstituents was carried out by PASS predictor online tools.

Results:
The docking score analysis showed that quercetin 3-rhamnoside (-8.77 kcal/mol) and
quercetin 3-rhamnoside (-7.89 kcal/mol) were excellent products to bind with their respective
targets such as 6LU7, 6M71, and 6JYT. The generated pharmacophore hypothesis model validated
the docking results, confirming the hydrogen bonding interactions of the amino acids. The PASS
online tool predicted constituent's antiviral potentials.

Conclusion:
The docked phytoconstituents showed excellent interactions with the SARS-CoV-2
proteins, and on the outset, quercetin 3-rhamnoside and quercetin 7-rhamnoside interacted well
with all the three proteins; these belong to the plant Houttuynia cordata. The pharmacophore
hypothesis has revealed the characteristic features responsible for their interactions, and PASS
prediction data has supported their antiviral activities. Thus, these natural compounds could be
developed as lead molecules for antiviral treatment against SARS-CoV-2. Further in-vitro and invivo
studies could be carried out to provide better drug therapy.

Objective: To identify the speech therapy strategies used to promote vocal health to teachers of early childhood, elementary and high school, participating in programs/actions for prevention and promotion of vocal health, as well as to describe and analyze their effects through an integrative literature review. Methods: An integrative review was conducted, which consisted of searches in the Lilacs, SciELO, and Medline databases. Inclusion criteria were complete articles available online in any language and year of publication that addressed strategies for promoting vocal health and preventing disorders in the target population, used in vocal health programs/actions with teachers. Results: Of the 624 articles that were included, six were selected to compose the study. It was possible to verify that the most used resources were educational strategies, through programs of guidance and attention to the teacher's vocal health. The results of the interventions were analyzed using self-assessment questionnaires, some of which have been standardized, with validation and adaptation to Brazilian Portuguese. Among practical strategies, exercises involving semi-occluded vocal tract, breathing, relaxation, resistance, and vocal projection, as well as vocal warm-up and cool-down, were the most used. Conclusions: Vocal health programs present diversified strategies, such as time and results analysis. The accurate study allowed to verify that the programs are effective and allow better vocal performance to the teacher, notably, through direct and indirect strategies.

Objective: To analyze the occurrence of tinnitus and peripheral sensory neuropathy in women during breast cancer chemotherapy. Methods: This is a retrospective analytical study with a quantitative approach, performed in medical records of an oncology outpatient service between February 2014 and February 2015, using the toxicities scores of Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE). Results: Considering 181 patients with breast cancer who met the inclusion criteria, 49.2% reported tinnitus at some point of the treatment, while 65.1% peripheral sensory neuropathy. In both conditions, the predominant severity score was grade 1, with frequencies of 23.8% and 33.1%, respectively. A significant, positive and weak correlation was observed between the severity of tinnitus and peripheral sensory neuropathy (ρ = 0.325 and p = 0.001), as well as very weak between the number of complete cycles of chemotherapy and tinnitus (ρ = 0.195 and p = 0.009) and neuropathy peripheral sensory (ρ = 0.237 and p = 0.002). Conclusions: Tinnitus and peripheral sensory neuropathy were frequent toxicities during chemotherapy treatment of breast cancer, and both manifested with low severity/functional impact in most participants.

Published: March 2021

Objectives: To analyze whether the weight reduction observed in bariatric surgery (Roux-en-Y gastric bypass; BGYR) is accompanied by a reduction in the use of antihypertensive, hypoglycemic, antilipidemic, and psychotropic drugs after 6 and 12 months. Methods: Longitudinal, retrospective study of 100 adult patients undergoing RYGB from May 2015 to January 2019, by laparotomy or laparoscopy. Data on age, body mass index (BMI), and the number of drugs used were recorded 6 and 12 months after surgery. Results: The mean age was 39.7 ± 9.7 years, and the majority were female (n = 78). The mean preoperative BMI was 43.7 ± 5.1 kg/m2, and the mean reduction in BMI after 6 months was 12.1 kg/m2 and 14.9 kg/m2 after 12 months. The reduction in antihypertensive drugs was 65.2% after 6 months and 96% after 12 months. The reduction in 6 months of hypoglycemic agents was 84.3%, and in 12 months, 98.3%. The average reduction in antidyslipidemic drugs was 86.7% in 6 months, and there was no record of using this medication after 12 months. Psychotropics showed a temporary reduction in use after 6 months with a return to levels close to the baseline after 1 year.There was no correlation between the variation in BMI and the use of drugs. Conclusions: there was a significant reduction in the use of drugs after 6 and 12 m, except for psychotropic drugs. The reduction in the use of drugs was not correlated with a reduction in BMI.

Objective: To analyze the data on epidemiological records of autointoxication reports registered at a toxicological assistance center. Methods: Exploratory, descriptive, and retrospective study with the analysis of secondary data, conducted from the audit on Toxicological Occurrence Notification and Attendance forms, referring to the period from 2014 to 2018, filed in a toxicological information and assistance center, located in a municipality in southern Brazil. The data obtained were compiled in spreadsheets and analyzed using simple descriptive statistics. Results: 2,942 epidemiological records on women's autointoxication were audited, 72.0% of the total cases in the period studied. The predominant age group was 18 to 29 years old, with 1697 (57.7%) cases. The main toxic agent was medication, and the only agent of intoxication in 2,358 cases (80.1%). Psychotropic drugs accounted for 55.2% (1,593) of the cases, mainly antiepileptic and psychoanalytic drugs. Clonazepam was present in 567 (35.6%) suicide attempts and as the sole agent in 275 (17.3%) of them. In 873 cases (54.8%), mental illness was reported, in 546 (34.3%) previous suicide attempts, and 1,082 (67.9%) continued use of psychotropic medication. The main outcome was hospital discharge in 1,239 cases (77.8%). Conclusion: The study showed an increase in cases of female autointoxication over the period studied. The high percentage of autointoxication with psychotropic medications may be related to the ease of access at home and society's medicalization.
Understanding the concept of Purgation (Ishal) in Unani Medicine: A Review
Authors: Kouser Hina V , Khan Fatima , Tehseen Ayesha , Nayab Mohd , Ansari Abdul Nasir 
Published: March 2021

The theory of humours (akhlat) is one of the fundamental pillars of the Unani System of Medicine (USM). The concept of health and disease depends on the quality (kaifiyat) and quantity (kammiyat) of humour (khilt). Health (sehat) lasts when humours remain in equilibrium and the main determinant of health is the balance in six essential factors (asbab-e-sittah zarooriya). These factors are highly modifiable and deviation in any of them leads to disequilibrium in humours either qualitatively or quantitatively which ultimately manifests in the form of the disease. Elimination (istifragh) of these morbid humours from the body becomes mandatory to treat the diseases or to restore health. One of the effective methods of elimination is purgation (ishal). It is a method by which morbid humours from the body are eliminated through the anal route. Before the elimination of any pathological humour especially in chronic diseases, it is mandatory to make the humour easily eliminable. This process of making the pathological humour eliminable is known as concoction (nuzj). The process of concoction is a regular and continuous process of the tabiyat (mediatrix naturae) of the body. In case of a minor deviation in humour, tabiyat itself eliminates it from the body after concoction. When the causative pathological humours are in abundance or grossly deviated from normalcy, tabiyat needs help from outside the body. This help of tabiyat can be done with some humour specific drugs which are known as concoctive medicines (munzij advia). Once, the humours become eliminable, the process of evacuation can be started. Classical Unani literature and published papers were explored to find the rationale of purgation therapy. Purgation is found to be advisable in the treatment of many chronic diseases. Tabiyat is the ultimate healer in the body and purgation helps it to overcome the diseases.

The purpose of present exploration was to modify kappa (k)-Carrageenan, by crosslinking, and assessed it as a tablet disintegrant to strengthen the solubility of the drug (aceclofenac) in tablet formulation. Modified k-Carrageenan was synthesized by reacting it with epichlorhydrin at heterogenous conditions. The swelling action of the product was investigated in order to optimize reaction circumstances for chemical cross-linking. Best modified k-Carrageenan procured by optimizing the reaction conditions and it was characterized for swelling index, particle size distribution, solubility, viscosity, gel strength and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Influence of modified k-Carrageenan on dissolution profile of therapeutic was also investigated along with other evaluation parameters. Modified k-Carrageenan exhibiting significant swelling index which is comparable to that of superdisintegrants. On comparative investigation as a tablet disintegrant by preparing anhydrous dicalcium phosphate tablet, modified k-Carrageenan showed disintegration time less than 20 seconds. Dissolution of aceclofenac (Class II) tablet formulaion utilizing modified k-Carrageenan was comparable with commercially available superdisintegrants. Faster dissolution of the accommodated drug was achieved with modified k-Carrageenan which was comparable with dissolution of the tablet formulation containing other superdisintegrants. The competent concentration of k-Carrageenan was found to be 5-15% as tablet disintegrant. Modified k-Carrageenan might be encouraging tablet disintegrant in fast dissolving formulations and can be worn in direct compression method. Keywords: k-Carageenan. Epichlorhydrin. Aceclofenac.

Published: March 2021

The clinical evolution of a diabetic patient is linked to its compliance with non-pharmacological measures such as diet, physical activity, acquiring habits, medical controls and also with its pharmacological treatment.
In different Latin American countries such as the Republic of Paraguay, there are National Programs to provide free support and treatment to the diabetic population that mostly have vulnerable social conditions. However, the impact of these government policies is not routinely evaluated. In order to establish the achievements of a state diabetes program, the present study was carried out.
Methodology: This is a descriptive, cross-sectional study with an analytical stage.
Results: low adherence to non-pharmacological measures such as diet and physical activity was detected. A high percentage of patients were overweight (38%) or obese (46.5%). 75% of the population enrolled in this study did not comply with the program recommendations regarding the time and frequency of physical activities, nor they complied with the minimum 6 daily meals required. Only 37% of the patients had normal levels of glycated hemoglobin and 51.3% of them had pharmacological treatment adherence. Low compliance was observed in relation to regular medical examinations (which were under free coverage by the program) that are transposed in 22% of retinal studies and 60% in 24-hour urine analysis for the early detection of complications such as retinopathy and nephropathy.
Conclusion: Despite the economic and logistical efforts carried out by State programs in order to care of people with diabetes mellitus, data showed a low adherence of patients to the proposed pharmacological and non-pharmacological measures. A personalized follow-up strategy is necessary to improve treatment adherence and to obtain better therapeutic results.
