Published: March 2021

Abstract
In Russia, much attention is paid to the development of the digital economy and artificial intelligence technologies. Agricultural organizations need artificial intelligence. Artificial intelligence creates new opportunities for substantiating management decisions, including in the field of management accounting. The aim of the study is to develop directions for using artificial intelligence in the management accounting of agricultural organizations. The methodology of management accounting has been supplemented with new provisions that show the use of artificial intelligence in the management system of agricultural organizations. Interpretations of the elements of the management accounting methodology are proposed: the object (historical, current and prospective information on the costs and results of financial and economic activities in different sections and details), the subject (financial and production activities of agricultural organizations and their structural elements), methods (general and specific). It is proposed to expand the statement of the goal of management accounting (strengthening the efficiency, reliability and completeness of information provided to management) and tasks (identification and measurement of activity parameters; increasing the efficiency of information collection; operational preparation and processing of information with a given degree of detail and depth of time lag; strengthening the quality of management analysis, control, planning and forecasting). It is proposed to supplement the methodological characteristics of the principles and functions of management accounting with new analytical and organizational capabilities. It is concluded that artificial intelligence can become an applied management accounting tool, expanding its traditional capabilities.

Published: March 2021

Abstract
The spatial heterogeneity of Russian territories has among other differences (like the climatic, resource) also an association with interregional and intraregional differentiation. The development of the agro-industrial complex (AIC) along with other industries will contribute to smoothing these differences and improving inter-level interaction. They can become catalysts for spatial development by introducing new technological processes in the agro-industrial complex, improving regional and municipal infrastructure, and digitalizing the regional economy. Due to the introduction of informative-communicative technology the production of regional economic entities is developing, a bigger increase in the gross regional product is provided. The thesis formulates that the digitalization of the regional agro-industrial complex contributes to the solution of the transformation issues in industrial and social relations that affect the further development of the agro-industrial complexes due to the implementation of new methodological and practical approaches in regional management of different territories. Monitoring tools, resource forecasting analysis allow bringing regional agribusiness and related industries to a new progressive level of development, which regional financial interests, systematized into homogeneous groups, allow solving many issues of the spatial development of regions.

Abstract
The article presents the characteristics of the chemical composition of the biomass of genus Miscanthus plants and the features of its use for the production of carbohydrate-containing substrates for biotechnology. It is shown that the Chinese mycanthus “Ferner Osten” is not characterized by a high content of lipidic and protein compounds. The herbaceous plant is rich in cellulose, lignin and fiber. To achieve the maximum conversion of the miscantus biomass, a preliminary chemical treatment with dilute sulfuric acid was performed. The optimal temperature for pretreatment of miscanthus biomass with 1% sulfuric acid solution is 130 °C with a process duration of 30 minutes. With an increase in temperature exposure, the yield of cellulose decreases markedly. Thus, when the temperature rises to 140°C and the process lasts 30 minutes, the pulp yield decreases by 31.38 %. With an increase in the duration of chemical treatment from 30 to 60 minutes, the pulp yield decreases from 79.07% to 61.08%. The residues of oligosaccharides and lignin were determined in the chemical hydrolysates of Miscanthus sinensis “Ferner Osten”. Among monosaccharides, glucose and xylose predominate, 40.5 and 24.4% of the dry matter, respectively. To increase the yield of sugars, it is planned to carry out two-stage processing.
Influence of the material reverse flow process on the regularities of pressure formation along the length of the screw surface of extruders
Authors: Usmanov I I 
Published: March 2021

Abstract
In the present work, the problem of describing the law of increase in the internal screw pressure of a solid material along the length of the screw surface of the extruder is posed and analytically solved, depending not only on the distributed friction forces and concentrated resistance forces of the counter-rotation ribs, made on the inner surface of the extruder body, but also taking into account the process of “sluicing” - backflow of material, which significantly affects the formation of the pressure field. The obtained mathematical model makes it possible to more correctly substantiate the design and technological parameters of extruders and grinders. The complexity of the movement of material in screw aggregates during its transportation, extrusion and cutting is caused not only by the complex screw shape of the channel, but also by the influence of a large number of variable technological parameters, structural elements of the mechanism, as well as many factors of a physical, mechanical and rheodynamic nature. In particular, in this study, the processes in two characteristic zones of the screw space, which are fundamentally different in physical conditions, are structured and analytically described by differential calculus methods. Based on the obtained mathematical model for the law of pressure distribution along the length of the screw surface, the design and technological characteristics of extruders can be optimized to reduce the energy consumption of materials grinding processes.

Published: March 2021

AbstractThe paper considers an algorithm of using the author’s methodology for location evaluation of agricultural objects on agricultural land, based on an expert-qualimetric approach to the analysis of factors in the use of agricultural land and rural development. Location evaluation of linear objects on land plots used in agricultural production leads to violations of the integrity of land use, negatively affects the quality of soils, makes it difficult to carry out technological work on their processing, entails inevitable economic losses of landowners and land users. At the same time, linear facilities (roads, oil and gas pipelines, energy networks, etc.) play an important positive role in the development of the country and its rural areas and the agricultural sector as a whole. In this regard, the problem of evaluation the location of a linear object is actualized, based on the balance of interests. The authors believe that the first expert approach (pre-project) proposed in this publication.
Increasing the topological diversity of light with modulated Poincaré beams
Authors: Darvehi Pegah , Vicuña-Hernández Verónica , Marrucci Lorenzo , Piedipalumbo Ester , Santamato Enrico , Piccirillo Bruno 
Published: March 2021

Abstract
We introduce a wide class of singular inhomogeneously polarized beams characterized by a nonuniform rotation rate of the local polarization azimuth about a C- or a V-point. They are obtained by adding an extra phase modulation with an m-fold rotational symmetry to the helical wavefronts underpinning Poincaré beams. The resulting modulated Poincaré beams have been theoretically studied and experimentally generated using tailored space-varying-axis plates based on liquid crystals.

Authors: Wang Henan , Chen Xingrui , Le Qichi , Zou Qi 
Published: March 2021

AbstractThis work investigated the discharge properties of the Mg-6Al-xCd alloy as a potential anode material for the Mg–air battery. The influence of the Mg-6Al-xCd alloy with cadmium content ranging between 0.5% and 1% on the electrochemical and discharge performances was investigated by means of microstructure characterization, electrochemical performance measurement and discharge test of the alloys. The results show that Mg-6Al-1.0Cd has the highest anode efficiency and specific capacity of 41.38% and 993.54 mAh/g, respectively. This good discharge performance is attributed to the addition of cadmium, which can inhibit self-corrosion and reduce the galvanic corrosion of the magnesium anode. The Mg-6Al-1.0Cd alloy can be used as a potentially ideal material for the Mg–air battery anode.
Comparison of silver-plated nylon (Ag/PA66) e-textile and Ag/AgCl electrodes for bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA)
Authors: Logothetis Irini , Gil Ignacio , Wang Xungai , Razal Joselito 
Published: March 2021

AbstractRecently, researchers have adapted Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) as a new approach to objectively monitor wounds. They have indicated various BIA parameters associated to specific wound types can be linked to wound healing through trend analysis relative to time. However, these studies are conducted using wet electrodes which have been identified as possessing several shortcomings, such as unstable measurements. Thus, the adaption of e-textile electrodes has become an area of interest in measuring biosignals. E-textile electrodes are known to possess a significantly large polarization impedance (Zp) that potentially influences these biosignal measurements. In this study we aim to identify the suitability of e-textile electrodes to monitor wounds using BIA methodologies. By adapting suggested methodologies conducted in-vivo from previous studies, we used an ex-vivo model to observe the behaviour of e-textile electrodes relative to time. This was compared to common clinical wet electrodes, specifically Ag/AgCl. The objective of this study was to identify the BIA parameters that can be used to monitor wounds with e-textile electrodes. By analysing the BIA parameters relative to time, we observed the influence ofZpon these parameters.
ENSO phase-locking behavior in climate models: from CMIP5 to CMIP6
Authors: Liu Minghong , Ren Hong-Li , Zhang Renhe , Ineson Sarah , Wang Run 
Published: March 2021

Abstract
The phase-locking behavior of El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) in models from Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP) phase 5 to phase 6 is assessed in terms of the locking-month of ENSO peak and the sharpness of locking tendency. Overall, a robust improvement exists in CMIP6. Compared to CMIP5, more CMIP6 models truly reproduce the locking-month in November-January. Meanwhile, the sharpness of phase-locking in CMIP6 models also improves, though most of them are still far from the observations. The locking-month is verified to be highly corresponding to the phase of seasonal modulation of ENSO’s instabilities. The sharpness is mainly controlled by the intensity of this modulation and noise. Compared to CMIP5, CMIP6 models generally simulate these affecting factors better. Besides, models displaying an exaggerated semi-annual variation of ENSO’s instabilities simulate the ENSO phase-locking relative-poorly, and these models show no reduction from CMIP5 to CMIP6.

Published: March 2021

Abstract
A simple and facile light managing strategy has been proposed in this work to promote the light harvest in inverted perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Effective light managing structures are realized on the substrate back surface by assembling two-dimensional hexagonal closely packed (2D-HCP) SiO2 nanoparticles with different diameters. The 100 nm 2D-HCP SiO2 structure, which mainly benefits from the graded refractive index along the light incident route, possesses an effective reflectance reduction of more than 10% in a wide incident angle range. Consequently, the efficiency of inverted PSCs has been substantially improved from 17.24% to 19.12%.

Published: March 2021

Abstract
Developing a low-cost and durable non-noble metal eletrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is critical in efficient hydrogen production. Herein, tungsten carbide nanoplates (WC NPs) with typical mesoporous structure were prepared by a controlled hydrothermal reaction followed by a gas-solid carburization process. The crystal phases, microstructure and chemical components of the nanoplates were characterized, and their electrochemical properties were measured. The results show that the as-prepared WC NPs expose active sites upmost, and exhibit enhanced conductivity and superior HER performance in acid solution in terms of a small η
10 (overpotential to obtain a current density of 10 mA cm−2) of 120 mV, a Tafel slope of 58 mV dec−1 and outstanding long-term cycling stability. These indicate that the HER properties of WC NPs are dramatically enhanced compared to that of all phase pure WC materials reported in recent years. This enhancement can be attributed to their unique structural and electronic properties, which can be exploited to improve the electrochemical properties of traditional non-noble metal material.

Published: March 2021

Abstract

Background
although frailty and delirium are among the most frequent and burdensome geriatric syndromes, little is known about their association and impact on short-term mortality.

Objective
to examine, in hospitalized older persons, whether frailty is associated with delirium, and whether these two conditions, alone or in combination, affect these patients’ 30-day survival.

Design
observational study nested in the Delirium Day project, with 30-day follow-up.

Setting
acute medical wards (n = 118) and rehabilitation wards (n = 46) in Italy.

Subjects
a total of 2,065 individuals aged 65+ years hospitalized in acute medical (1,484 patients, 71.9%) or rehabilitation (581 patients, 28.1%) wards.

Methods
a 25-item Frailty Index (FI) was created. Delirium was assessed using the 4AT test. Vital status was ascertained at 30 days.

Results
overall, 469 (22.7%) patients experienced delirium on the index day and 82 (4.0%) died during follow-up. After adjustment for potential confounders, each FI score increase of 0.1 significantly increased the odds of delirium (odds ratio, OR: 1.66 [95% CI: 1.45–1.90]), with no difference between the acute (OR: 1.65 [95% CI: 1.41–1.93]) and rehabilitation ward patients (OR: 1.71 [95% CI: 1.27–2.30]). The risk of dying during follow-up also increased significantly for every FI increase of 0.1 in the overall population (OR: 1.65 [95% CI: 1.33–2.05]) and in the acute medical ward patients (OR: 1.61 [95% CI: 1.28–2.04]), but not in the rehabilitation patients. Delirium was not significantly associated with 30-day mortality in either hospital setting.

Conclusions
in hospitalized older patients, frailty is associated with delirium and with an increased risk of short-term mortality.
The Combined Effect of Intravenous and Topical Tranexamic Acid in Liposuction: A Randomized Double-Blinded Controlled Trial
Authors: Abboud Nicolas M , Kapila Ayush K , Abboud Sofie , Yaacoub Elie , Abboud Marwan H 
Published: March 2021

Abstract

Background
Tranexamic acid (TXA) use in surgical procedures due to its hemostatic effects has been gaining an increased interest. In plastic surgery, the effects of TXA have been studied intravenously (IV), and there have been some reports regarding local use.

Objectives
A comparative study examining the combined effect of IV and local TXA was conducted.

Methods
A randomized double-blinded controlled trial was performed for patients undergoing breast reduction treatment with liposuction and resection following the power-assisted liposuction mammaplasty (PALM) technique. All patients received 5 mL IV of 0.5 g/5 mL TXA on induction. Before installation, one researcher prepared two solutions of 1 L normal saline: one with 5 mL of 0.5 g/5 mL TXA associated with epinephrine 1:100,000 and the other with only epinephrine 1:100,000. These were randomly infiltrated in either the left or right breast. Clinical dermal bleeding was assessed for both breasts after deepithelialization. The lipoaspirate from these breasts was then compared with each other. A postoperative evaluation at 24 hours was performed to compare the ecchymosis rate.

Results
Ratios of decanted volume to total lipoaspirate was measured in bottles and compared between breasts. There was a statistical difference (P = 0.0002) in the ratio of decanted to lipoaspirated volume when comparing the control group (ratio: 0.21) with the treatment group (0.13). Video analysis revealed decreased dermal bleeding in the TXA group and postoperative evaluation less ecchymosis.

Conclusions
The combined use of IV and local TXA can help reducing blood loss in liposuction as measured by decantation in separate drain bottles and as assessed clinically preoperatively and postoperatively.

ShinyCell: simple and sharable visualization of single-cell gene expression data
Authors: Ouyang John F , Kamaraj Uma S , Cao Elaine Y , Rackham Owen J L 
Published: March 2021

Abstract

Motivation
As the generation of complex single-cell RNA sequencing datasets becomes more commonplace it is the responsibility of researchers to provide access to these data in a way that can be easily explored and shared. Whilst it is often the case that data is deposited for future bioinformatic analysis many studies do not release their data in a way that is easy to explore by non-computational researchers.

Results
In order to help address this we have developed ShinyCell, an R package that converts single-cell RNA sequencing datasets into explorable and shareable interactive interfaces. These interfaces can be easily customized in order to maximize their usability and can be easily uploaded to online platforms to facilitate wider access to published data.

L2,1-norm regularized multivariate regression model with applications to genomic prediction
Authors: Mbebi Alain J , Tong Hao , Nikoloski Zoran 
Published: March 2021

AbstractMotivationGenomic selection (GS) is currently deemed the most effective approach to speed up breeding of agricultural varieties. It has been recognized that consideration of multiple traits in GS can improve accuracy of prediction for traits of low heritability. However, since GS forgoes statistical testing with the idea of improving predictions, it does not facilitate mechanistic understanding of the contribution of particular single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP).ResultsHere, we propose a L2,1-norm regularized multivariate regression model and devise a fast and efficient iterative optimization algorithm, called L2,1-joint, applicable in multi-trait GS. The usage of the L2,1-norm facilitates variable selection in a penalized multivariate regression that considers the relation between individuals, when the number of SNPs is much larger than the number of individuals. The capacity for variable selection allows us to define master regulators that can be used in a multi-trait GS setting to dissect the genetic architecture of the analyzed traits. Our comparative analyses demonstrate that the proposed model is a favorable candidate compared to existing state-of-the-art approaches. Prediction and variable selection with datasets from Brassica napus, wheat and Arabidopsis thaliana diversity panels are conducted to further showcase the performance of the proposed model.Availability and implementation: The model is implemented using R programming language and the code is freely available from https://github.com/alainmbebi/L21-norm-GS.Supplementary informationSupplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
