Published: December 2021

Background: COVID-19 is an infectious disease that is currently a concern and has become a global problem. The trend in the number of confirmed cases and deaths due to COVID-19 every day is still increasing significantly. North Sulawesi Province currently has 7 regencies/cities which are declared as local transmission areas including North Minahasa Regency. The population density factor can affect the process of transmission of this disease. This study aims to determine the spatial description of the distribution of COVID-19 events in North Minahasa Regency.Methods: This quantitative research with descriptive observational design using a geographic information system approach. The location is in 10 sub-districts of North Minahasa Regency. Study population was all patients who were confirmed positive for COVID-19 based on data from the North Minahasa District Health Office as of 13 February 2021, as many as 1,273 cases. Simple random sampling was used and obtained 300 samples.Results: Results showed that the highest number of cases was for the age group 30-49 years (40%), female gender (54.7%), symptom onset date interval 4 days (26.7%), confirmation date grouped by month, namely October in 2020 (23%), the status of the patient recovered (86%), and there were no comorbidities (82%).Conclusions: Most of the cases of COVID-19 were found in densely populated areas and passenger transit areas between districts/cities. Policies on prevention and supervision of health protocols that are implemented must synergize across sectors and need to be improved.

Desbordes/Undoing Borders: hacia nuevas epistemologías fronterizas
Authors: Burgos Hugo , Fellner Astrid M. 
Published: December 2021

Desde que empezó la pandemia de Covid-19, el mundo ha sido testigo de otra fase en la proliferación de fronteras. La discusión sobre los roles complejos de los bordes, las fronteras y los límites se ha vuelto más relevante que nunca. Esta situación nos llama a reconceptualizar los procesos, discursos, prácticas y símbolos a través de los cuales funciona el poder de crear bordes. Las fronteras, está claro, nunca son líneas estáticas, sino productos complejos en múltiples niveles. Incluso más si pensamos en cómo en la era posthumanista, el enfoque antropogénico limítrofe [bordering] ha llegado a sus límites (Konrad 2021), ya que nos enfrentamos con múltiples crisis ambientales y migratorias tanto a nivel local como transnacional. Teniendo en cuenta la importancia de los procesos fronterizos en el siglo XXI, este número de post(s) resalta las nuevas epistemologías fronterizas. Desbordes / Undoing Borders se enfoca en formas innovadoras de deshacer la frontera. Este número proporciona un espacio para investigaciones exploratorias de enfoques creativos de las fronteras, zonas y estados limítrofes, bordes permeables. post(s) 7 se enfoca en interacciones entre las manifestaciones materiales e inmateriales que ocurren en las fronteras y las diversas posibilidades de medios que existen para estudiarlas.

Published: December 2021

AbstractThe demand for silk increases as its economic value rises. Silk production by the silkworm, Bombyx mori L., is linked to the quality of the silkworm diet, leading to efforts to nutritionally enrich the mulberry (Morus alba L.) diet of silkworm larvae. Previous studies have established that spermidine, a polyamine, enhances larval growth in B. mori, subsequently increasing silk production. However, its role in improving the nutritional quality of the silkworm diet is not known. In this study, we evaluated the effects of spermidine-treated diet on the nutritional indices, polyamine levels, and antioxidant potential in fifth-instar larvae. We also assessed the effect of consumption of the spermidine-treated diet on the larval gut microbiome, which impacts digestion and assimilation of nutrients. Larvae consuming the spermidine-treated diet showed a significant increase in the efficiency of conversion of ingested food and digested food, intracellular polyamine levels (especially the conjugated and free fraction), antioxidant potential and cell viability, and both diversity and number of bacterial communities. These findings suggest that feeding mulberry leaves fortified with spermidine enhances nutritional efficiency in the B. mori larvae and may represent a method of increasing silk production by B. mori.

Published: December 2021

AbstractIn August 2019, Georgians were provided the opportunity to participate in a pollinator census, called the Great Georgia Pollinator Census (https://GGaPC.org). This initiative evolved from two pilot projects conducted in 2017 and 2018. Citizen scientists counted insects and placed them into one of eight insect categories: (1) carpenter bee, Xylocopa sp. (Hymenoptera: Apidae); (2) bumble bee, Bombus sp. (Hymenoptera: Apidae); (3) honey bee, Apis mellifera L. (Hymenoptera: Apidae); (4) small bee (Hymenoptera); (5) wasp (Hymenoptera: Vespidae); (6) fly (Diptera); (7) butterfly or moth (Lepidoptera); or (8) other insects. This project was a yearlong effort that included assisting Georgians in creating sustainable pollinator habitat and increasing participant knowledge of insects and insect-mediated ecosystem services. A sustainable education effort involved the use of a website, newsletters, social media, University of Georgia Extension personnel, and project partners. Over 4,500 participants recorded over 151,000 insect counts in 135 Georgia counties, including 134 schools. Data analysis indicated a significant difference between pollinator counts in rural and urban areas (e.g., carpenter bees were more abundant in urban than in rural areas). Analysis also showed a significant influence of the local presence of honey bee hives on relative proportion of other pollinators as represented in the survey counts.

The aim is to study macro- and microscopic structure, as well as the cellular composition of the glands of the sphincter zones of large intestine of adults of different age groups.Material and methods. On autopsy material obtained from 30 people, without signs of pathology of the digestive tract of three age groups: 20–29 years, 50–59 years, 90–99 years, the structure of the glandular apparatus of the sphincter zones was studied. The areas of the Gerlach flap, Girsch sphincters, Payr–Strauss, Bally, O'bern–Pirogov–Moutier were considered. Quantitative morphometry was performed on histological preparations stained with methylene blue, followed by fixation in a saturated solution of ammonium molybdenum (picric acid), hematoxylin-eosin, picrofuchsin according to Van Gieson. Methods of parametric statistics based on the Statistica 6.0 program were used for statistical data processing.Results. The analysis of the number, size and cellular composition of the glands of the sphincter zones of the large intestine revealed an increase in both the number of glands and their size in all age groups compared to the proximally adjacent areas of the intestine, on average by 1.3–1.5 times. In a similar range, individual indicators of the number of epithelial cells in the glands of the sphincter zones of the colon increased. At the same time, the cellular composition of the glands of the sphincter zones and adjacent areas of the intestinal wall was similar to neighboring areas, with predominant goblet-shaped epithelial cells (52.9–54.2% of cells on the longitudinal section of the gland) and the presence of absorption cells (29.9–31.2%), undifferentiated – 11.9–13.2% and argyrophilic endocrinocytes – 1.4–5.3%.Conclusion. Against the background of narrowing of the lumen of the large intestine in the area of the sphincters and changes in the nature of the mucous membrane, there is an increase in the size and density of the localization of glands in all age groups. This confirms the thesis about the formation of a protective barrier that provides a local adaptive potential of this area of the intestinal wall, against the background of increased mechanical effects of intestinal masses.

Published: December 2021

Formal methods (FM) are mathematics-based software development methods aimed at producing ``code for a nuclear power reactor''. That is, due application of FM can produce bug-free, zero-defect, correct-by-construction, guaranteed, certified software. However, the software industry seldom use FM. One of the main reasons for such a situation is that there exists the perception (which might well be a fact) that FM increase software costs. On the other hand, FM can be partially applied thus producing high-quality software, although not necessarily bug-free.
In this paper we outline some FM related techniques whose application the cryptocurrency community should take into consideration because they could bridge the gap between ``loose web code'' and ``code for a nuclear power reactor''. We include relevant case studies in the area of cryptocurrency.

Cassava are one of the staple foods in place of rice. However, today almost no one consumes cassava as a staple food substitute for rice. Indonesia is ranked third as the world's largest producer of cassava. Therefore, to maintain the value of yam production, the author will look for linear regression models as well as the best models with factors that are harvest area and productivity. Productivity is defined as the result of a comparison between the area of harvest and production. To search for regression models use multiple linear regression methods, while the best models use stepwise methods. Based on existing data, the best model is obtained with negative interception and influenced by productivity and the extent of the yam harvest.

Background and Objective: Globally, father engagement is deemed an important factor in mothers’ breastfeeding practices. In the U.S., the role of the father in breastfeeding is understudied. This study examines the association between voluntary legal paternity and maternal breastfeeding outcomes.
Methods: Using data from a modified Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System survey (Monroe County, NY, 2015-2017) linked to New York State’s birth certificate data, we assessed breastfeeding outcomes (exclusivity and duration) by voluntary legal paternity (VLP) establishment. We examined breastfeeding duration (breastfeeding cessation at 13 weeks or less) and exclusive breastfeeding (at 13 weeks) among mothers whose infants had VLP (i.e., married, acknowledgment at birth), and those who had no-VLP (i.e., a court-mandated Paternity Affidavit or no legal paternity established). Univariate analyses were conducted, with additional variables (parental demographics, maternal social and clinical) included subsequently. The backward elimination method was used to determine the set of covariates to adjust in the model.
Results: Of the 1,753 mothers initiating breastfeeding, 1,364 had VLP and 389 had no-VLP established. Mothers of infants with a no-VLP were more likely to be Black (29.49%), Hispanic (17.74%), have lower income (80.21%), have lower-education levels (44.73%) and were more likely to be <30 years old (61.7%), and had higher levels (14.4%) of reported traumatic stress before and during the most recent pregnancy. Among mothers initiating breastfeeding, those with no-VLP had a higher risk of breastfeeding cessation at 13 weeks (OR: 2.06; 95% CI, 1.25-3.42) after adjusting for maternal resilience, social support, hospital breastfeeding support, pre-pregnancy BMI, paternal age, and paternal education; and higher risk of breastfeeding cessation at 13 weeks (OR:1.46; 1.01-2.09).
Conclusion and Implications for Translation: Voluntary legal establishment of paternity is associated with maternal breastfeeding outcomes. Screening of mothers may include legal paternity status as a further indication of the need for additional breastfeeding support, especially among socio-economically disadvantaged populations.

Molecular Mimicry of Pathogenicity of Neisseria
Authors: Sarkar Indrani , Dey Prateek , Rathore Saurabh Singh , Singh Gyan Dev , Singh Ram Pratap 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
Neisseria, a genus from beta-proteobacteria class, is of potent clinical importance. This genus contains both pathogenic and commensal strains. Gonorrhea and meningitis are two major diseases caused by pathogens belonging to this genus. With increased use of antimicrobial agents against these pathogens they have evolved the antimicrobial resistance (AMR) capacity making these diseases nearly untreatable. The set of anti-bacterial resistance genes (resistome) and genes associated with signal processing (secretomes) are crucial for the host-microbial interaction. With the virtue of whole genome sequences and computational biology it is now possible to study the genomic and proteomic riddles of Neisseria along with their comprehensive evolutionary and metabolic profiling. We have studied relative synonymous codon usage, amino acid usage, reverse ecology, comparative genomics, evolutionary analysis and pathogen-host (Neisseria-human) interaction through bioinformatics analysis. Our analysis revealed the co-evolution of Neisseria genomes with the human host. Moreover, co-occurrence of Neisseria and humans has been supported through reverse ecology analysis. A differential pattern of evolutionary rate of resistomes and secretomes was evident among the pathogenic and commensal strains. Comparative genomics supported the presence of virulent genes in both pathogenic and commensal strains of select genus. Our analysis also indicated a transition from commensal to pathogenic Neisseria strains through the long run of evolution.
