Introducción. La berenjena Solanum melongena L. (Solanales: Solanaceae), es uno de los cultivos de hortalizas más importantes del Caribe Colombiano. Cultivo afectado por el ácaro rojo Tetranychus ludeni (Acari:Tetranychidae) el cual causa pérdidas económicas asociadas al rendimiento y contaminación ambiental por sobredosificaciones de acaricidas, lo que repercute en la salud de los agricultores y su familia. Objetivo. Evaluar la resistencia de siete materiales de berenjena a infestaciones artificiales de T. ludeni en condiciones de campo e invernadero. Materiales y métodos. El estudio se desarrolló entre abril y octubre de 2017 en el Centro de Investigación Turipaná de la Corporación Colombiana de Investigación Agropecuaria (AGROSAVIA). Los genotipos evaluados fueron las variedades Corpoica C029, Corpoica C015, las accesiones C036, C025, C049, y los cultivares regionales Buelvas y González; en campo e invernadero bajo un diseño en bloques completos al azar en tratamientos con cuatro repeticiones. Resultados. Las pruebas de campo mostraron diferencias significativas en la densidad poblacional de ácaros entre los materiales (F=4,42; p<0,0004), donde C025 tuvo los mayores valores y Buelvas los menores. La prueba de invernadero reveló diferencias en la densidad poblacional de ácaros entre materiales, con mayor población el cultivar C036 y con menor Buelvas. Conclusiones. Los cultivares regionales Buelvas y González exhibieron resistencia contra T. ludeni, proporcionando evidencia que existió resistencia a T. ludeni en campo en los materiales regionales de berenjena del Caribe colombiano. Las pruebas bajo invernadero, con las mayores densidades del ácaro, ofrecieron mayor poder discriminatorio y se sugieren en la fase inicial de evaluación completa del banco de germoplasma. Se sugiere el uso del cultivar Buelvas como genotipo resiste y C036 como genotipo de referencia susceptible a T. ludeni en futuros ensayos experimentales. Buelvas se recomienda como genotipo de referencia en razón de la estabilidad de la resistencia que mostró en campo e invernadero y asociada a mayores rendimientos.

Introducción. El uso de asociaciones de gramíneas y leguminosas permite tener mayor valor nutritivo y rendimiento de materia seca. Objetivo. Evaluar seis mezclas de forrajes perennes, anuales y leguminosas en épocas seca y de lluvias en Nariño, Colombia. Materiales y métodos. El estudio se realizó entre diciembre 2017 y noviembre 2018 en el Centro de Investigación Obonuco de la Corporación Colombiana de Investigación Agropecuaria (AGROSAVIA). Se utilizó un diseño de bloques completos al azar con un arreglo de parcelas sub-divididas. Se determinó: PC (proteína cruda), FDN (fibra en detergente neutro), FDA (fibra en detergente acido), D (digestibilidad), ENL (energía neta de lactancia) y la TC (tasa de crecimiento de las especies). Para el análisis se empleó el software R V.3.6.0. Resultados. El valor nutritivo de las mezclas para la época de altas y bajas precipitaciones presentó diferencias significativas (p<0,05) a la edad de 28, 35 y 42 días, donde la mezcla conformada por Dactylis glomerata arrojó los mejores resultados a excepción de la PC a la edad de los 28 días. Los mejores valores para esta mezcla se presentaron en época seca. Conclusión. La mezcla 4 (Trifolium repens + Trifolium pratense + Dactylis glomerata) presentó la mayor tasa de crecimiento y acumulación de PC a la edad de 35 y 42 días en las dos épocas evaluadas; por lo anterior, podría evaluarse a nivel comercial como una potencial alternativa alimenticia para los sistemas ganaderos de trópico alto de Nariño.

Published: May 2021

AbstractObjective. The objective of this brief report is to review an assessment paradigm for conducting virtual neuropsychological pre‐surgical evaluations in the context of the COVID‐19 pandemic.Methods. A multidisciplinary epilepsy team at a Level 4 epilepsy center within a large children's academic medical center convened to discuss the challenges and possible solutions for Phase II evaluations for pediatric patients with pharmacoresistant epilepsy during the COVID‐19 pandemic. The neuropsychologists explored evidence‐based methods of virtual evaluation and developed a systematic decision‐making process for youth requiring a Phase II evaluation.Results. We propose models of assessment which prioritize teleneuropsychology when possible to reduce the risk of infection: (1) evaluation with directly administered tests through a completely virtual format; (2) virtual/in‐person hybrid evaluation; and (3) clinical observation/interview in a virtual format supplemented by survey data. These models are illustrated by three cases.Significance. Using virtual assessment models, the team was able to meet the urgent patient care needs and collect useful data while minimizing the risk of virus spread. The paradigms presented may be useful examples for other multidisciplinary surgical teams interested in incorporating teleneuropsychology into their practices.

Published: May 2021

Purpose of the study: The study intends to find the interaction of Performance Appraisal Justice (PAJ) and work engagement (WE) to predict employee job performance (JP) and organizational citizenship behaviour (OCB) under the umbrella of fairness heuristic theory (JHT) and social exchange theory (SET).
Methodology: Hypotheses testing was done using linear regression data on the data set of 325 respondents. The results are significant and indicated that Justice in the performance appraisal system is positively related to employee outcomes (OCB and job performance) with mediating effect of work engagement.
Main Findings: Interaction between exogenous, endogenous, and intervening variables suggests that there is a positive relationship between PAJ and WE and WE mediate the relationship between PAJ and OCB and PAJ JP. In the organizational setting of Pakistan, this study addresses PAJ and its important outcomes which are beneficial for the organization’s effective outcomes.
Applications of this study: This study throws light on the management, organizational, and administrative sciences literature, especially the human resource, organizations, and industrial behavior perspective. Administrators and human resource managers can apply the findings of this study. The study can be applied to both the public and private sectors.
Originality/Novelty: Pakistani organizations have high collectivism, uncertainty avoidance and power distance, centralization, bureaucracy, and authority in organizations. Therefore, this study has proved some prominent outcomes as compared to countries with a more constant climate. The study sheds light on very important aspects of workplace behavior such as justice, work engagement, OCB, and performance with a particular focus on developing countries.
Resenha – em fios de memórias, imagens e narrativas: processos didáticos e curriculares pensados com os cotidianos
Authors: Garcia Alexandra 
Published: May 2021

A obra resenhada tem como temática o debate de processos didáticos e curriculares relacionados aos cotidianos escolares. Aborda as questões sob o formato de conversas que trazem narrativas em memórias e imagens com densa interlocução teórica. As conversas são assumidas como opção metodológica defendida pela autora ao longo de sua trajetória no campo das pesquisas com os cotidianos por serem entendidas como um modo de produção de conhecimentos e significações caraterístico dos professores. Essas conversas são desenvolvidas a partir de histórias com memórias de escolas e imagens da própria autora e de outros professores, criando aproximações com o vivido na perspectiva daquele que narra. As histórias são convites, para tocar em questões que afetam as escolas e destacam as criações cotidianas que acontecem no enfrentamento de problemas locais. As questões tratadas ao longo do livro são abordadas partir de complexas imbricações que engendram as redes educativas com as quais os conhecimentossignificações são tecidos. Dialoga com noções do pensamento de Foucault e Deleuze, além de autores do campo do currículo e inicia cada capítulo com uma homenagem a pessoas que atuam em diferentes frentes e temáticas na Educação. No conjunto da obra, Nilda Alves convoca a pensar os processos pedagógicos e formativos e a importância de aprendermos a como aprender uns com os outros.
A inserção da mulher no ensino de pós-graduação
Authors: Azevedo Denilson Santos de , Gouvêa Tatiani Gomes 
Published: May 2021

O artigo trata do processo de inserção da mulher num dos cursos pioneiros na área das ciências agrárias, o Programa de Pós-Graduação em Fitotecnia (PPG-FIT) da Universidade Federal de Viçosa (UFV), entre os anos de 1961 e 2018. Nos dias atuais, a presença da mulher ocupa diversos espaços sociais e profissionais, muito diferente de cerca de 50 anos atrás, que eram ocupados quase que exclusivamente por homens. Se nas últimas décadas assistimos ao crescente empoderamento feminino nas mais diferentes atividades humanas, o propósito desta investigação consiste em analisar a presença da mulher no campo de conhecimento das ciências agrárias, mais especificamente no âmbito do curso de mestrado e doutorado em Fitotecnia, onde historicamente o predomínio do sexo masculino se mantem como uma de suas características marcantes. As informações coletadas no arquivo de Dissertações e Teses do PPG-FIT e os dados institucionais extraídos do Sistema de Apoio ao Ensino – SAPIENS da UFV, permitiram identificar a faixa etária e o sexo dos estudantes matriculados nos cursos de mestrado e doutorado, durante os primeiros cinquenta e sete anos de atividade deste Programa e verificar como vem se dando estas relações de gênero, em termos de ingresso e titulação, por meio do levantamento de percentual de matrícula e titulação nos cursos de mestrado desde 1961 e de doutorado, a partir de 1973, até o ano 2018, de modo a conhecer em que grau e instâncias vêm ocorrendo o avanço da presença feminina nestes cursos de pós-graduação stricto sensu tão marcadamente ocupados pelo sexo masculino.

Distal Biceps Reconstruction With an Alternative Technique for Tendon Tensioning and Fixation
Authors: Leite Maria João , Silva Miguel Relvas , Sousa António , Vieira Alberto , Neves Nuno , Ribeiro da Silva Manuel 
Published: May 2021

Case:
A 41-year-old right-handed male patient presented to our institution with a chronic distal biceps rupture after failed primary surgery 6 months previously. We performed a reconstruction with semitendinosus autograft fixed proximally with a Pulvertaft weave and distally with a cortical button plus interference screw. The patient showed complete pain resolution and excellent functional results.

Conclusion:
This is the first case described with the use of a cortical button plus interference screw distally for distal biceps reconstruction after chronic distal biceps rupture. The option of doing the Pulvertaft proximally first also allowed us to fine-tune the final graft tension.

Authors: Wuellner John C , Shieh Alvin K , Eastman Jonathan G 
Published: May 2021

Case:
A traumatic sciatic nerve entrapment and transection because of a combined pelvic ring injury and acetabular fracture has never previously been described. We report such a case of a 32-year-old man who was found intraoperatively to have entrapment and transection of the sciatic nerve within the acetabular fracture.

Conclusion:
Consideration for urgent intervention should be given to patients who present with a sciatic nerve palsy in the setting of certain acetabular fracture patterns with residual posterior column displacement. Early recognition and intervention with neurolysis may help provide the best environment for recovery.

Influence of comorbidity on hospital outcomes among patients with COVID-19 using electronic records from a nationwide Healthcare System in Peru
Authors: Tenorio-Mucha Janeth , Soto-Becerra Percy , Araujo-Castillo Roger V. , HURTADO-ROCA YAMILEE 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
Background
Large cases reported that older age and comorbidity are predictors for poor prognosis in COVID-19 patients. Nevertheless, context-specific evidence relevant in low-and middle-income countries is still pending.
Methods
Retrospective cohort study using electronic health records of confirmed cases admitted in hospitalization areas from the Peruvian Social Health Insurance. The main variable was the presence of comorbidities and the outcomes were in-hospital mortality or intensive care unit admission, and in/out hospital mortality. We used Kaplan-Meier survival curves with the Log-Rank test to compare time-to-event outcomes between comorbidities groups. Crude and adjusted Cox regression models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HR). Statistical analyses were conducted with a significance level of 5%.
Results
In patients with ICU admission or in-hospital death, 45.99% had one comorbidity and 50.26% had two or more comorbidities. Using in/out hospital deaths up to 60 days as the outcome, the overall survival of patients with two comorbidities is lower than patients with one comorbidity, and both are lowest than a patient without comorbidities (Log-rank test p = 0.001). After adjusting for sex, age, severity, and hospital care network patients with one comorbidity (HR: 1.16; IC 95 %: 1.04–1.31) and with two or more comorbidities (HR: 1.13; IC 95%: 1.01–1.26) are at higher risk to die compared with those without comorbidities.
Conclusion
The presence of comorbidities in hospitalized patients with COVID-19 are risk factors for ICU admission and mortality. Proper identification of these factors can help to identify patients at higher risk in hospital admission and provide specialized care to prevent deaths.
Commensal Rodents in 19th Century Australasia: Diversity, Invasion Routes and the China Connection
Authors: Veale Andrew James , King Carolyn , Johnson Wayne , Shepherd Lara 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
The present genetic diversity of commensal rodent populations is often used to inform the invasion histories of these species, and as a proxy for historical events relating to the movement of people and goods. These studies assume that modern genetic diversity generally reflects early colonising events. We investigate this idea by sequencing the mitochondrial DNA of rodent bones found in a 19th-century archaeological site in The Rocks area of Sydney, Australia, the location of the first historical European port. We identified 19th-century bones from two species, Rattus norvegicus and Mus musculus domesticus. We found six genetic haplotypes in the 39 Norway rats, showing either multiple early introductions or a diverse initial founding population. One of them was identical with Norhap01 common in the North Island of New Zealand, but none was like the haplotype Norhap02 found throughout the South Island. We found three haplotypes in seven house mice, all belonging to the dominant subspecies established in Australia, M.m. domesticus. There was no evidence for M. m. castaneus or M. m. musculus having established there. We had few modern R. norvegicus and M. musculus DNA sequences from Sydney, but those we had did tentatively support the hypotheses that (1) modern samples can represent at least a preliminary estimate of historical diversities and origins, and (2) Asian haplotypes of both Norway rats and of house mice reached the South Island of New Zealand early in colonial times direct from China rather than through Port Jackson.
Fumigant Toxicity of Cleistopholis patens (Benth) Oil extracts on Plodia interpunctella (Hubner) and Its Toxicological Effects in Wistar Rats
Authors: Olorunsogbon Sunday Tope , Akinneye Joseph , Olowu Eniola 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
Background: The efficacy of root and stem barks oil of Cleistopholis patens as a fumigant agent on Plodia interpunctella infesting maize grains as well as its toxic potential in wistar rats were investigated. Both plant oils were used for fumigant bioassay while only the root oil extract was used for all toxicological studies due to its higher toxicity on P. interpunctella when compared to stem oil extract. Both insects and wistar rats were exposed to different concentrations (0.0, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% and 25%) of the extract. 36 wistar rats were divided into Group A-F and each group received different concentrations of the oil extract except for Group A that received only Dimethyl sulphide saline and various toxicological tests were conducted. Results: Result shows that both stem and root extracts significantly evoked (p<0.05) higher larva and adult mortality in treated grains when compared to both controls except at 5% of both oil extracts. Ten percent root oil extract achieved 50% mortality in Plodia interpunctella within 48hrs and 25% achieved 100% mortality in larva and adult of Plodia interpunctella within 72hrs when compared to the amount needed to achieve 50% and 100% mortality in stem oil extract within 48hrs and 72hrs. Irrespective of the concentration administered to the animal, there were no significant alteration (p>0.05) in the toxicological test using both liver and kidney biochemical parameters.Conclusion: This study shows that root oil extract of C. patens is a very good fumigant poison to Plodia interpunctella with no toxic impact in wistar rats.
BER Analysis of FSO System with Airy Beam as Carrier Over Exponentiated Weibull Channel Model

Published: May 2021

Abstract
Average Bit Error Rate (BER) expression of free-space optical (FSO) communication links with Airy beam as signal carrier under weak atmospheric turbulence and on-off keying (OOK) modulation scheme is derived based on scintillation index of Airy beam and Exponentiated Weibull (EW) channel model. The average BER has been evaluated at different transverse scale factors and exponential decay factors of Airy beam and link distances. And comparison of the average BER of FSO links with Airy beam and Gaussian beam as signal carrier has been carried out. The simulation results show that the average BER of FSO links with Airy beam as carrier decreases with the increase of mean signal to noise ratio (SNR) and increases with the increase of transmission distance. When the transverse scale factor is about 1.5cm, a lower average BER can be obtained. And the smaller the exponential decay factor is, the lower the average BER is. Under the same atmospheric turbulence condition, the average BER of FSO links with Airy beam as carrier is obviously better than that of FSO links with Gaussian beam as carrier. The results of this research have some significance for the application of Airy beam in FSO system.
