Abstract
A study of the phylogeny and taxonomy of Xylaria species associated with fallen fruits and seeds within the genus Xylaria and among gernera of the family Xylariaceae based on ITS, RPB2, and β-tubulin sequences of 97 species from Xylaria and 7 other genera of the Xylariaceae were analyzed. The 7 genera included Amphirosellinia, Astrocystis, Kretzschmaria, Nemania, Podosordaria, Poronia, and Rosellinia. The results of our phylogenetic study showed that Xylaria species were distributed among five major clades, X1, X2, X3, X4, and X5. Clade X1 encompassed exclusively those Xylaria speices associated with termite nests, clade X2 composed Xylaria speices growing on leaves, fibrous pericarps and some on wood, clade X3 contained endocarp-inhabiting Xylaria species, clade X4 composed primarily of wood-inhabiting Xylaria speices, clade X5 composed primarily of species of Xylaria associated with leguminous pods. Xylaria appears to be a paraphyletic genus, with most of 7 genera included in it. Nine new taxa associated with fallen fruits and seeds, namely X. aleuriticola, X. cordiicola, X. meliicola, X. microcarpa, X. rogersii, X. schimicola, X. terminaliicola, X. theaceicola, and X. wallichii, are described, illustrated, and compared to morphologically similar species. Four species, X. carpophila, X. liquidambaris, X. oxyacanthae, and X. xanthinovelutina, were reported in China for the first time. A key to all the accepted species associated with fallen fruits and seeds in Xylaria from China was given.

Abstract
Background

Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is an effective and also mature surgical interventions that improves life quality and provides pain relief. Accurate bone cuts are important to prevent TKA malalignment and it requires cautious preoperative plan and precise bone resection. Recently, robotic-assisted TKA techniques have been used to improve the accuracy of bone resection and implantation. However, the system described above suits for only one prosthesis type.
Methods

Five types (MicroPort_CS, Smith& Nephew_GII, Johnson&Johnson_PFC_PS, kingnow _VLQX_PS and Akmedical_A3GT_PS) implants were included in our study and three Sawbones models were used for each implant. Procedures were performed by experienced joint replacement surgeons using HURWA robotic-assisted TKA system.
Results

our study indicated that the bone resection error of HURWA robotic-assisted system was below 0.5 mm (with SDs below 0.3 mm), and all of the bone resection angles were below 0.5° (with SDs below 0.3°). The bone resection angles and levels deviation of different brand prosthesis types were below 0.5 mm (with SDs below 0.3 mm) and below 0.5° (with SDs below 0.3°) respectively.
Conclusion

It suggested that our system may be suitable for different prosthesis types.

Abstract
In the current era of the Internet of Things (IoT), various devices can provide more services by connecting to the Internet. However, the explosive growth of connected devices will cause the cloud core overload and significant network delays. To overcome these problems, the Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) network is proposed to provide most of the computing and storage near the radio access network to reduce the traffic of the core cloud network and provide lower latency for the terminal.Mobile edge computing can work with third parties to develop multiple services, such as mobile big data analysis and context-aware services. However, when there is a large amount of popular data accessed in a short period, the system must generate many replicas, which will not only reduce access efficiency but also cause additional traffic overhead. To improve the above problems, an Adaptive Replica Configuration Mechanism (ARCM) is proposed in this paper to predict the popularity of the file and make a replica to the low-blocking node. This method spreads the subsequent access workload by copying the popular file in advance to improve the overall performance of the system.

Abstract
The development of high-performance organic solar cells (OSCs) with thick active layers is of crucial importance for the roll-to-roll printing of large-area solar panels. Unfortunately, increasing the active layer thickness usually results in a significant reduction in efficiency. Herein, we fabricated efficient thick-film OSCs with an active layer consisting of one polymer donor and two non-fullerene acceptors. The two acceptors were found to possess enlarged exciton diffusion length in the mixed phase, which is beneficial to exciton generation and dissociation. Additionally, layer by layer approach was employed to optimize the vertical phase separation. Benefiting from the synergetic effects of enlarged exciton diffusion length and graded vertical phase separation, a record high efficiency of 17.31% (certified value of 16.9%) was obtained for the 300 nm-thick OSC, with an unprecedented short-circuit current density of 28.36 mA cm−2, and a high fill factor of 73.0%. Moreover, the device with an active layer thickness of 500 nm also shows a record efficiency of 15.21%. This work provides new insights into the fabrication of high-efficiency OSCs with thick active layers.

Published: November 2021

Abstract
Background: Risk for non-contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury can be assessed based on drop vertical jump (DVJ). However, biomechanics of DVJ should differ with type of various sporting activities. The purpose of the present study was to clarify whether biomechanical features of DVJ are different among various sporting activities in female athletes.Methods: A total of 42 female athletes, including 25 basketball, 8 soccer and 9 volleyball players, participated in the current investigation. DVJ was done for each female athlete using a three-dimensional motion analysis system which consisted of six cameras, two force plates and 46 retro-reflective markers. Kinematic and kinetic data were recorded for both limbs in each athlete. Simultaneously, frontal and sagittal plane views of the DVJ were recorded using high-resolution two different video cameras to evaluate Landing Error Scoring System (LESS) score. Three-dimensional biomechanical parameters at the knee joint and LESS were compared among three different sporting activities.Results: Soccer players had better LESS score, compared to basketball players, while no significantly differences were found between basketball and volleyball players in LESS. In addition, peak knee flexion angle was significantly larger, and knee abduction angle at initial contact (IC), peak knee abduction angle, knee internal rotation angle, and knee abduction moment within 40 milliseconds from IC were significantly smaller in soccer players, compared to basketball players. There were no significantly differences between basketball and volleyball players in all biomechanical parameters.Conclusions: From the present study, female basketball and volleyball players have worse LESS score, greater knee abduction angle and moment, compared to female soccer players. Thus, female basketball and volleyball players are likely to have the increased risk of non-contact ACL injury during DVJ, compared to soccer players. DVJ may be useless as a screening tool of non-contact ACL injury for soccer players. Biomechanics of DVJ depends on characteristics of the athlete's primary sport.

Abstract
Drugs produce pharmaceutical and adverse effects that arise from the complex relationship between drug targets and signatures; by considering such relationships, we can begin to understand the cellular mechanisms of drugs. In this study, we selected 463 genes from the DSigDB database corresponding to targets and signatures for 382 FDA-approved drugs with both protein binding information for a drug-target score (KDTN, i.e., the degree to which the protein encoded by the gene binds to a number of drugs) and microarray signature information for a drug-sensitive score (KDSN, i.e., the degree to which gene expression is stimulated by the drug). Accordingly, we constructed two drug–gene bipartite network models, a drug-target network and drug-signature network, which were merged into a multidimensional model. Analysis revealed that the KDTN and KDSN were in mutually exclusive and reciprocal relationships in terms of their biological network structure and gene function. A symmetric balance between the KDTN and KDSN of genes facilitates the possibility of therapeutic drug effects in living organisms. These results provide new insights into the relationship between drugs and genes, specifically drug targets and drug signatures.

Published: November 2021

Abstract
Background: Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is among the top ten devastating mental disorders. Psychiatric nurses have significant roles in its diagnosis and management. Aim of the study: to investigate the effects of insight with obsessive beliefs and metacognition appraisal on the severity of symptoms among patients with OCD. Subjects and methods: This case-control study was conducted in the outpatient clinics at El Maamoura Mental Health Hospital. It included 69 OCD patients recruited from the setting, and 69 age- and gender-matched healthy controls. A self-administered questionnaire Yale Brown OCD Scale, Overvalued Ideas Scale (OVIS), and Metacognitions Questionnaire (MCQ-30) was used in data collection. The fieldwork was from October 2020 to March 2021. Results: Most patients were diagnosed with OCD at <30 years age (78.3%), and 39.1% tried self-management. OCD patients’ scores of Yale Brown, OVIS, and MCQ-30 were significantly higher than controls (p<0.001). A significant positive correlation was found between Yale Brown severity and OVIS insight scores (r=0.459). The multivariate analysis revealed that OVIS score is the strongest independent positive predictor of the Yale Brown severity score, while good family relations is a negative predictor. As for the MCQ-30, the control thoughts score was a positive predictor, and the self-consciousness score a negative predictor. Conclusion and recommendations: OCD patients have poorer insight and more maladaptive metacognitive beliefs in comparison with healthy controls. Although poor insight has a significant negative impact on OCD severity, the effects of metacognition still need further research. The study recommends training programs to improve the insight of OCD patients. Further research addressing the role of metacognition in OCD is warranted.

Abstract
Background

The objectives of this study were to estimate the prevalence of Alcohol Use and Alcohol-Related Problems (AU & ARP) among the Brazilian Maxakali indigenous people, and to examine how the prevalence varies according to sociodemographic characteristics and their associations with these characteristics.
Methods

A cross-sectional analytical population-based study was conducted with 1,036 Maxakali aged from nine years. A questionnaire was applied to 66 indigenous leaders who responded about alcohol consumption in 2016 and the negative consequences of this consumption among their friends in their villages. The association between consumption and consequences with the sociodemographic data of respondents was examined by applying the chi-square, Fisher's exact, and cluster analysis tests. Kappa values were calculated to assess the reproducibility of the questionnaire.
Results

The 12-month prevalence of alcohol use was 39.1%. The usage rate for women (17.3%) was 3.6 times lower than the usage rate for men. Male alcohol use rates increase from 8.1–64% in the age group from 09 to 14 to 15 to 19 years old. The highest proportions of alcohol use among mothers and fathers were found in extended families and associated with the negative consequences of those who use cachaça. On the other hand, nuclear families showed an association of protection against alcohol use in the age group of 9 to 14 years in females. Although alcohol use in females starts from 20 to 24 years of age, the rates of problems related to this use in women surpassed those of men during 25 to 45 years of age.
Conclusions

With the substantial agreement of reproducibility in the application of the questionnaire, we expect that the ease of application and the predictive power of this tool will allow the detection and monitoring of alcohol use and its consequences in the Maxakali people.
A hydrological model skill score and revised R-squared
Authors: Onyutha Charles 
Published: November 2021

Abstract
Despite the advances in methods of statistical and mathematical modeling, there is considerable lack of focus on improving how to judge models’ quality. Coefficient of determination (R2) is arguably the most widely applied ‘goodness-of-fit’ metric in modelling and prediction of environmental systems. However, known issues of R2 are that it: (i) can be low and high for an accurate and imperfect model, respectively; (ii) yields the same value when we regress observed on modelled series and vice versa; and (iii) does not quantify a model's bias. A new model skill score E and revised R-squared (RRS) are presented to combine correlation, bias measure and capacity to capture variability. Differences between E and RRS lie in the forms of correlation and variability measure used for each metric. Acceptability of E and RRS was demonstrated through comparison of results from a large number of hydrological simulations. By applying E and RRS, the modeller can diagnostically identify and expose systematic issues behind model optimizations based on other ‘goodness-of-fits’ such as Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE) and mean squared error. Unlike NSE, which varies from −∞ to 1, E and RRS occur over the range 0–1. MATLAB codes for computing E and RRS are provided.

O estudo da estrutura da comunidade da macrofauna edáfica é um meio de entender o funcionamento do solo e os possíveis bioindicadores de suaqualidade. Neste contexto, objetivou-se realizar um levantamento da biodiversidade da macrofauna do solo em duas áreas de Proteção Ambiental no Maranhão. As áreas experimentais consideradas no estudo foram: Área I (APA do Buriti do Meio) e Área II (APA do Inhamum). Para realização das coletas da macrofauna do solo utilizou-se armadilhas do tipo Provid. Foi realizada uma análise faunística, e calculados os índice de diversidade, equabilidade e riqueza das ordens no programa ANAFAU. No geral, foram contabilizados 6.695 indivíduos, distribuídos em 15 ordens. Aordem que mais se destacou dentre as duas áreas foi Hymenoptera, considerada superdominante, superabundante, superfrequente e constante. A precipitação puvial pode interferer diretamente na abundância de indivíduos da macrofauna edáfica. O ambiente da Área II apresentou maior riqueza, diversidade e equabilidade. O trabalho relevou que as práticas de manejo de agricultura interferem no comportamento da fauna do solo, indicando que a mesma é mais abundante em ambientes mais conservados, confirmando que osorganismos edáficos são bons bioindicadores da qualidade do solo.

O município de Hidrolândia, inserido no Semiárido Nordestino Brasileiro (NEB), apresenta períodos em que podem ocorrer eventuais desastres socionaturais associados à ausência de chuva ou excesso da mesma, acarretando em estiagens e inundações. O artigo teve como objetivo analisar os desastres socionaturais associados às estiagens e inundações no município de Hidrolândia no período de 1989-2018. Inicialmente foram obtidos dados pluviométricos na Fundação Cearense de Meteorologia e Recursos Hídricos – FUNCEME para aplicação da técnica dos quantis, através do método de Pinkayan (1966). Em seguida, identificaram-se situações de desastres associados aos períodos secos e chuvosos no município, a partir de análises nos documentos presentes no Banco de dados do Sistema Integrado de Informações sobre Desastres (S2iD), os quais apresentam informações sobre número de atingidos, decretos de Situação de Emergência (SE), Estado de Calamidade Pública (ECP) e reconhecimento de desastres socionaturais. De forma concomitante, foram identificados os sistemas atmosféricos e teleconexões que interferiram nos acumulados superiores e inferiores. A Zona de Convergência Intertropical - ZCIT foi o sistema atmosférico que mais influenciou na formação de chuvas. Já o El Niño contribuiu consideravelmente para a ocorrência de secas. Ao menos doze situações de desastre foram verificadas em Hidrolândia na série histórica analisada.

O Nordeste brasileiro em sua maior porção é definido por clima Semiárido. No entanto, ao analisar a região em escala cartográfica maior, é possível desvelar áreas que fogem a este contexto, caracterizando-se como Áreas de Exceção ou enclaves úmidos. Assim, esta pesquisa objetivou uma caracterização climática da Serra de Martins, no período de 1973 a 2002, comparando com o município de Antonio Martins, situado na Depressão Sertaneja. Quanto aos dados, os pluviométricos foram disponibilizados pela EMPARN e os de temperatura foram estimados em software, seguindo modelo de Cavalcanti e Silva (1994), denominado de Estima_T e que disponibiliza as médias, máximas e mínimas com base em dados de latitude, longitude e altitude. Após a tabulação dos dados, o balanço hídrico climatológico foi gerado, conforme modelo proposto por Thornthwaite e Mather (1955). Para Martins encontrou-se a média pluviométrica de 1230 mm e 23ºC como média térmica. Já Antonio Martins o valor médio de precipitação encontrado foi de 693 mm e sua média térmica é de 27ºC. A partir dos dados gerados no balanço hídrico, tem-se a seguinte tipologia climática, B1w2A’ (Megatérmico Úmido com déficit hídrico no inverno e na primavera) para Martins e C1dA’ (Megatérmico Subúmido Seco com pequeno ou nenhum excedente hídrico) para Antonio Martins.

Dokumenty Stolicy Apostolskiej z ostatniego okresu reflektują mocniej znaczenie odpowiedzialnego zarządzania majątkiem w instytutach zakonnych, zaś nadzór nad jego transparentnością i jego znaczenie zostały włączone nawet w sferze formacji zakonnej. Artykuł rekapituluje pozycję instytutów zakonnych w ramach Kościoła lokalnego, ich współpracę w zakresie zarządzania majątkiem oraz dotychczasowe kroki w zarządzaniu majątkiem zakonnym w RCz przez kilka pierwszych lat realizacji ustawy nr 428/2012 ZU o wyrównaniu majątkowym z Kościołami i związkami wyznaniowymi. Ustawa przewiduje restytucje naturalne oraz kompensacje finansowe. Pieniądze z rekompensat za niezwrócony majątek instytuty zakonne częściowo deponują, a część inwestują. Celem ma być przyszłe zupełne oddzielenie majątkowe Kościołów (a więc i zakonów) od państwa i umożliwienie samowystarczalności finansowej Kościołów.
Microbial Cold Shock Proteins: Overview of their Function and Mechanism of Action

Published: November 2021

:
The organism responds to a decrease in temperature by producing a series of cold shock
proteins (CSPs). These proteins play a critical role in growing and functioning characteristics at
low temperatures. CSPs have been discovered in a wide range of organisms and have shown enormous
diversity; their mechanisms of action are also complicated. Transcription and translation in
microorganisms typically occur via a single linear chain, but upon exposure to low temperatures,
RNA forms a complex secondary structure that prevents ribosomes from binding to it, thus slowing
down translation. CSPs bind to mRNA as RNA molecular chaperones to keep the mRNA secondary
structure in a single-stranded linear conformation, allowing successful translation at low
temperatures.
