Authors: Sinay Hermalina 
Published: November 2021

Gandaria (Bouea macrophylla Griffith), is one of the fruit plants belongs to family Anacardiaceae. Young fruits of gandaria are normally consumed as salad, while mature fruits are consumed as fresh fruit or juice. Recently, the population of gandaria is getting less due to people activity of cutting trees for housing. On the other hand, this activity is not followed by replanting new plants for maintaning this species. Naturally, the seed of gandaria can germinate and grow, but its growth is slow. Treatments with cold or warm stratification, acid and organic solution or growth hormones can be applied to promote germination. Gibberellins is one of growth hormones that can promote seed germination. The objectives of this research were to study the effects of gibberellins and temperature on seedling growth of gandaria. Samples used in this research were mature fruits of gandaria taken from Lateri Ambon. Variables measured were the speed of seedling emergence, plant height, and leaf number. Factorial pattern of complete randomized block design was used in this research with the first factor were gibberellins concentrations which consist of 4 levels 0 ; 0,2 ; 0,4 and 0,8 ppm , and the second factor were temperature which consist of 3 levels 40C, 290C and 370C, each combination treatment with three replication. Data were analyzed using analysis of variance and followed by Duncan multiple range test (DMRT) at the significant level of 5%. The results showed that gibberellins and temperature significantly increased the speed of seedling emergence, plant height, and leaf number with the highest value obtained in 0,2 ppm gibberellin at temperature 4oC treatment. The highest value of seedling emergence was obtained in 0,4 ppm of gibberellins concentration at temperature 40C treatment. It can be concluded that the best quality and quantity of seedling was obtained in treatment of 0,2 ppm gibberellin concentration at temperature 4oC .

Alabio duck as one of the genetic resources of South Kalimantan develop rapidly and well-known as an excellent breed of ducks for egg production in Indonesia. However, due to unplanned crossbreeding in the field, presumely the productivity and the purity of Alabio ducks decreased. The study is conducted in order to provide information of the characteristics of body weight, body shape, colour of feather, beak, and shank, and also egg production and egg quality of Alabio ducks at duck farming centers in South Kalimantan. The results indicated that there are uniformity in body weight, ≤ 1,5 – 1,6 kg for female and > 1,6 kg for male at 20-24 weeks of age, bottle for of body shape, 60o elavation, but there are variations in some degree in feather colour, beak colour and shank colour of Alabio duks. The feathers vary between batik (strip) or not-strip with cream as the base color. Meanwhile, the colour of beak and shank vary as light yellow, old yellow and orange. Unless for the higher egg production (91%) in the intensive system and yellow red yolk colour (12,93 RYCF) in the extensive system, egg qualities are not different between production systems.

Desorption and Transport of Temperature-Pressure Effect on Adsorbed Gas in Coal Samples from Zhangxiaolou Mine, China
Authors: Zhang Xiaohu , Li Wenxin , Li Gan 
Published: November 2021

Abstract
The development of coal seam fissures and gas migration process caused by mining disturbance has an extremely important influence on gas control and roadway stability. In this study, the desorption, diffusion, and migration tests of adsorbed gas under the coupling effect of temperature and uniaxial compression were conducted on four coal samples from Zhangxiaolou mine, using the temperature and pressure coupling test system of deep coal rocks. The test confirms that the higher the temperature, the faster the desorption and emission of the adsorbed gases in the coal, and the larger the volume of the emitted gases. Meanwhile, it is found that the adsorbed gases in the coal samples of Zhangxiaolou mine are carbon dioxide and methane in the order of content. It is found that during the uniaxial compression process, several large negative values of the pressure of the emitted gas occur during the stable growth stage of the crack. This indicates that the crack expansion makes a new negative pressure space inside the coal sample, and the negative pressure values increase continuously during the unstable growth phase of the crack until the coal sample is destroyed. And after the axial pressure is removed, the escaped gas pressure shows a large positive value due to the rebound of the coal matrix and the continuous desorption of a large amount of adsorbed gas from the new crack location, which has a significant hysteresis with respect to the occurrence of the peak stress. Meanwhile, the SEM images of the coal samples before and after the test are analyzed to confirm the cause of the negative pressure generation.

Abstract
Background: The global spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus highlights both the importance of frontline healthcare workers (HCW) in pandemic response and their heightened vulnerability during infectious disease outbreaks. Adequate preparation, including the development of human resources for health (HRH) is essential to an effective response. ICAP at Columbia University (ICAP) partnered with Resolve to Save Lives and MOHs to design an emergency training initiative for frontline HCW in 11 African countries, using a competency-based backward-design approach and tailoring training delivery and health facility selection based on country context, location and known COVID-19 community transmission. Methods: Pre and Post-test assessments were conducted on participants completing the COVID-19 training. Parametric and non-parametric methods were used to examine average individual-level changes from pre- to post-test, and compare performance between countries, cadres, sex and facility types. A post evaluation online training survey using Qualtrics was distributed to assess participants’ satisfaction and explore training relevance and impact on their ability to address COVID-19 in their facilities and communities. Results: A total of 8,797 HCW at 945 health facilities were trained between June 2020 and October 2020. Training duration ranged from 1 to 8 days (median: 3days) and consisted of in person, virtual or self guided training. Of the 8,105 (92%) HCW working at health facilities, the majority (62%) worked at secondary level facilities as these were the HF targeted for COVID-19 patients. Paired pre- and post-test results were available for 2,370 (25%) trainees, and 1,768 (18%) participants completed the post-evaluation training survey. On average, participants increased their pre- to post-test scores by 15 percentage points (95% CI: 0.14, 0.15). While confidence in their ability to manage COVID-19 was high following the training, respondents reported that lack of access to testing kits (55%) and PPE (50%), limited space in the facility to isolate patients (45%), and understaffing (39%) were major barriers. Conclusion: Ongoing investment in health systems and focused attention to health workforce capacity building is critical to outbreak response. The success of our short-term IPC training initiative was due both to the speed, rigor and flexibility of its design and delivery, and to the pre-existing systems, resources, and partnerships that enabled its rapid implementation

Published: November 2021

Abstract
Purpose
Posterior communicating artery (PCoA) aneurysm is common and sometimes requires microsurgery; however, as data on premammillary artery (PMA) infarction after clipping is scarce, we retrospectively reviewed cases of post-clipping PMA infarction to analyze incidence, independent risk factors of infarction, and anatomical considerations.
Methods
Data from 569 consecutive patients who underwent microsurgical clipping for unruptured PCoA aneurysm between January 2008 and December 2020 were included. Patients were categorized into the normal or the PMA infarction group. Statistical analyses and comparisons between the two groups were used to determine the influence of various factors.
Results
The normal group included 515 patients while the PMA infarction group had 31. The mean length of hospital stay was significantly longer in the PMA infarction group (10.3 ± 9.1 days) than in the normal group (6.5 ± 6.4 days; p < 0.0001). The distribution of Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) at discharge was significantly different between the two groups (p ≤ 0.0001) but was not so at 6 months after discharge (p = 0.0568). Multivariate-logistic-regression analysis identified aneurysm size (odds ratio [OR], 1.194; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.08–1.32; p = 0.0005) and medial direction of aneurysm (OR, 4.615; 95% CI, 1.224–17.406; p = 0.0239) as independent risk factors of post-clipping PMA infarction.
Conclusions
Surgeons must beware of PMA infarction after clipping of large aneurysms that are medial in direction. Intraoperative verification of the patency of the PCoA and the PMA from various angles using various intraoperative methods can reduce morbidity due to PMA infarction.
Dynamically Tunable Plasmon-induced Transparency in Parallel Black Phosphorus Nanoribbons

Abstract
In this paper, we investigate the dynamically tunable plasmon-induced transparency (PIT) effects in parallel black phosphorus nanoribbons (BPNRs). The results show that the BPNRs having different lengths can be regarded as bright modes. Single-band, double-band, triple-band, and multi-band PIT effects based on the bright-bright mode coupling between parallel BPNRs are achieved. The physical mechanism of the single-band model can be explained theoretically by the radiating two-oscillator (RTO) model. Due to the heavier effective mass in the zigzag (ZZ) direction of the BP, the frequencies of the transparent peaks are shifted to lower frequencies when the placement directions of BPNRs are changed from the X-direction to the Y-direction. Furthermore, the resonant frequencies of the transparent windows in each model can be tuned by changing the relaxation rates of the BPNRs. The frequencies of the transparent windows are blue-shifted as the relaxation rates are increased. Finally, The corresponding sensors based on single-band PIT effect show high sensitivities of 7.35 THz/RIU. Our study has potential applications for improving the design of multiple-band filters, sensors and on-off switcher.

Published: November 2021

Abstract
An in-silico study, using the GALAS algorithm available in ACD/Percepta, was performed to calculate the pKa(s) of the various oximes with potential application as peptide coupling additives. Among the known oximes and predicted structures, OxymaPure is superior based on the pKa values calculated, confirming the results described in the literature and validating this algorithm for further uses in that field. Among the non-described oximes, based on pKa calculation, ethyl 2-(hydroxyimino)-2-nitroacetate seems to be a potential candidate to be used as an additive during peptide coupling.

Abstract
Discharge of pollution loads into natural water systems remains a global challenge that threatens water/food supply as well as endangers ecosystem services. Natural rehabilitation of the polluted streams is mainly influenced by the rate of longitudinal dispersion (Dx), a key parameter with large temporal and spatial fluctuates that characterizes pollution transport. The large uncertainty in estimation of Dx in streams limits evaluation of water quality in natural streams and design of water quality enhancement strategies. This study develops a sophisticated model coupled with granular computing and neural network models (GrC-ANN) to provide robust prediction of Dx and its uncertainty for different flow-geometric conditions with high spatiotemporal variability. Uncertainty analysis of Dx GrC-ANN model was based on the alteration of training data fed to tune the model. Modified bootstrap method was employed to generate different training patterns through resampling from a 503 global database of tracer experiments in streams. Comparison between the Dx values estimated by GrC-ANN to those determined from tracer measurements show the appropriateness and robustness of the proposed method in determining the rate of longitudinal dispersion. GrC-ANN model with the narrowest bandwidth of estimated uncertainty (bandwidth-factor =0.56) that brackets the most percentage of true Dx data (i.e., 100%) is the best model to compute Dx in streams. Given considerable inherent uncertainty reported in other Dx models, the Dx GrC-ANN model is suggested as a proper tool for further studies of pollutant mixing in turbulent flow systems such as streams.

Abstract
Background

Poly-γ-glutamic acid (γ-PGA) is a natural anionic biopolymer widely used in various fields, including medicine, food, cosmetics, and environmental protection. The γ-PGA synthase complex, CapBCA, is the only polyprotein complex responsible for γ-PGA synthesis. However, systematic and in-depth research on the function of each component involved in γ-PGA synthesis is scarce, which limits enhanced production of γ-PGA.
Results

To address this limitation, γ-PGA synthase components were localized, and their functions associated with γ-PGA synthesis were investigated in Corynebacterium glutamicum. Bioinformatics analysis and confocal microscopic observations of CapB-sfGFP, CapC-sfGFP, and CapA-sfGFP proteins revealed that γ-PGA synthase components CapB, CapC, and CapA were all localized on the cell membrane. More importantly, γ-PGA was detected only when CapB, CapC, and CapA were expressed in combination in C. glutamicum. Furthermore, enhancement of CapB or CapC transcription levels (from low to high) and maintaining medium-level CapA transcription led to 35.44% and 76.53% increase in γ-PGA yield (γ-PGA yield-to-biomass), respectively. However, maintaining medium-level CapB and CapC transcription, and moderate enhancement of CapA transcription level (from low to medium) led to 35.01% increase in γ-PGA yield, whereas a further increase in CapA expression (from medium to high) led to 10.36% decrease in γ-PGA yield. Notably, CapC had the greatest influence (accounting for 68.24%) on γ-PGA synthesis.
Conclusions

The present study determined the membrane localization of γ-PGA synthase components, CapB, CapC, and CapA, in C. glutamicum and confirmed the significance of these components in γ-PGA production. Furthermore, CapC was found to have the greatest influence on controlling γ-PGA synthesis. These findings shed light into the effect of γ-PGA synthase component expression on γ-PGA synthesis, and provide insights for further improvement in γ-PGA production.

Abstract
BackgroundJAK1 and JAK2 have been implicated in fibrosis and cancer as a fibroblast-related marker; however, their role in liver fibrosis has not been elucidated. Here, we aim to determine the effect and underlying mechanism of JAK1/2 inhibition on liver fibrosis and hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) and further explore the therapeutic efficacy of Ruxolitinib, a JAK1/2 selective inhibitor, on preventing and reversing liver fibrosis in mice. MethodsImmunohistochemistry staining of JAK1 and JAK2 were performed on liver tissue in mice with hepatic fibrosis and human liver tissue microarray of liver cirrhosis and liver cancer. LX-2 cells treated with specific siRNA of JAK1 and JAK2 were used to analysis activation, proliferation and migration of HSCs regulated by JAK1/2. The effects of Ruxolitinib (JAK1/2 inhibitor) on liver fibrosis were studied in LX-2 cells and two progressive and reversible fibrosis animal models (carbon tetrachloride (CCl4), Thioacetamide (TAA)). ResultsWe found that JAK1/2 expression was positively correlated with the progression of HCC in humans and the levels of liver fibrosis in mice. Silencing of JAK1/2 down-regulated their downstream signaling and inhibited proliferation, migration, and activation of HSCs in vitro, while Ruxolitinib had similar effects on HSCs. Importantly, Ruxolitinib significantly attenuated fibrosis progression, improved cell damage, and accelerated fibrosis reversal in the liver of mice treated with CCl 4 or TAA. ConclusionsJAK1/2 regulates the function of HSCs and plays an essential role in liver fibrosis and HCC development. Its inhibitor, Ruxolitinib, may be an effective drug for preventing and treating liver fibrosis.

Abstract
Climate modes like ENSO (El Nino Southern Oscillation) and IOD (Indian Ocean Dipole) produce an impact on the monsoon rainfall over India. Monsoon rainfall is extremely important for the agriculture of our country. The impact of these climate modes on monsoon rainfall thus in turn affects the rain-fed crops (Kharif). In this study, four Kharif season crops namely Rice (Oryzasativa), Maize (Zea mays), pulses and sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum) are chosen over four arid/semi-arid agro-climatic zones of western India to study the effect of the climate modes on selected crops. The detailed analysis has been carried out to show the impact of El Nino/La Nina (phases of ENSO) and IOD years on the crop productions over the mentioned zones viz. (Central plateau & hills region; Western plateau & hills region; Gujarat hills and plains region; Western Dry region) from 1966-2011. Rice production has been largely affected during drought years associated with El-Nino. The production of Pulses shows marginal improvement during the neutral years or non-El Nino/non-La Nina. The Maize production seems to be better in La Nina years as compared to neutral years and worst in the El Nino years. El Nino years provides a minor impact on Sugarcane productions in different zones. La Nina years are well suited for sugarcane production in any zones of our study. Positive IOD years are associated with poor crop productions as compared to negative IOD years mostly in all zones due to the co-occurrence of positive IOD years with El Nino. The correlations between positive IOD and rainfall are much weaker as compared to the correlations between the El Nino and rainfall in the years of co-occurrences over the zones making El Nino much more influential than positive IOD events.
