Objective: This study aims to describe an unusual peritoneopericardial diaphragmatic hernia (PPDH) in an 8-month-old German shepherd dog, associated with a pericardial pseudocyst and coexisting severe pericardial effusion resulting in right-sided heart failure.Case Summary: An 8-month-old, male, intact, German shepherd dog, was referred for ascites. Echocardiography revealed a severe pericardial effusion with a cyst-like structure within the pericardium and consequently decompensated right-sided heart failure. The ascites was secondary to right-sided heart failure (cardiac tamponade). Computed tomography (CT) of the thorax and abdomen was performed and showed PPDH with severe pericardial effusion and presence of a pericardial cyst-like structure; xyphoid cleft and Y-shaped seventh sternebra; and mild thickening along the cranioventral abdominal wall consistent with scar tissue from the previous umbilical hernia surgical repair. During surgery, the PPDH was corrected, and it was revealed that the remnant of the umbilical cord passed through it, into the pericardium. The cyst-like structure was successfully resected and sent for pathology. Histopathology showed signs of a chronic suppurative inflammation, with absence of a mesothelial or endothelial wall layer, thus consistent with a pseudocyst. Based on tomographic and surgical findings, it is suspected that the pseudocyst, together with the pericardial effusion, evolved by an inflammation of the remnant of the umbilical cord during the umbilical hernia surgical repair 1 month prior to presentation. The underlying PPDH most likely favored the development of the pericardial pseudocyst. However, due to prior antibiotic therapy initiated by the private vet, an infectious origin cannot be ruled out completely.New or Unique Information Provided: There are a few case reports describing PPDH and/or pericardial pseudocysts in veterinary patients, but the current case report is unique, since it describes PPDH associated with a pericardial pseudocyst and coexisting severe pericardial effusion resulting in cardiac tamponade. As far as the authors know, such a case has not been described in veterinary medicine before.

Off-leash dog parks are designated public spaces where dogs can move freely, under their owners’ supervision. These areas, allowing animals to socialize and move freely, are fundamental for dogs’ welfare. However, different pathogens, even zoonotic, may be excreted by the attending animals and contaminate the environment. The aim of the present study was to verify the occurrence of bacterial, fungal and parasitic pathogens in off-leash dog parks located in Florence (central Italy). Between March and May 2019, 83 fecal samples, 43 soil samples and 23 water samples (from fountains and puddles) collected from 26 off-leash fenced areas were examined. Fecal samples scored positive for Yersinia spp. (n = 7), Listeria innocua (n = 4), Toxocara canis eggs (n = 2) and Ancylostoma caninum/Uncinaria stenocephala eggs (n = 1). Keratinophilic geophilic fungi (mostly Microsporum gypseum /A. incurvatum) were recovered from 43 soil samples belonging to 23 out of 26 parks, along with Microsporum canis in a single case. Prototheca spp. was never isolated from water samples, while Trichosporon sp. was cultured in two cases, alone and in association with Geotrichum candidum. These results show that dogs did not act as important carriers for the investigated bacterial and parasitic pathogens, although examined areas may represent a risk for the spreading of some dermatophytoses to both pets and their owners. Periodical examinations to assess the main bacteriological, parasitological and mycological pathogens in different samples collected in off-leash dog parks should be carried out in a One-Health perspective.

In this work, a low-cost and rapid electrochemical resistive DNA biosensor based on the current relaxation method is described. A DNA probe, complementary to the specific human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16) sequence, was immobilized onto a screen-printed gold electrode. DNA hybridization was detected by applying a potential step of 30 mV to the system, composed of an external capacitor and the modified electrode DNA/gold, for 750 µs and then relaxed back to the OCP, at which point the voltage and current discharging curves are registered for 25 ms. From the discharging curves, the potential and current relaxation were evaluated, and by using Ohm’s law, the charge transfer resistance through the DNA-modified electrode was calculated. The presence of a complementary sequence was detected by the change in resistance when the ssDNA is transformed in dsDNA due to the hybridization event. The target DNA concentration was detected in the range of 5 to 20 nM. The results showed a good fit to the regression equation ΔRtotal(Ω)=2.99 × [DNA]+81.55, and a detection limit of 2.39 nM was obtained. As the sensing approach uses a direct current, the electronic architecture of the biosensor is simple and allows for the separation of faradic and nonfaradaic contributions. The simple electrochemical resistive biosensor reported here is a good candidate for the point-of-care diagnosis of HPV at a low cost and in a short detection time.
Outdoor measurements of thoron progeny in a <sup>232</sup>Th-rich area with deposition-based alpha track detectors and corrections for wind bias

Published: June 2021

Radon and thoron progeny are important contributors to dose from naturally occurring radionuclides, especially in high background areas and with naturally occurring radioactive material (NORM) legacy sites. Due to the short half-life of thoron, measurements of thoron progeny with a longer half-life should be used for risk and dose assessment. Deposition-based alpha track detectors for such progeny are, however, biased by air movement, especially outdoors where winds may be strong but variable. We used deposition detectors for thoron progeny and radon progeny, as well as alpha track gas detectors for 220Rn and 222Rn, outdoors within the Fen complex in Norway, an area with both elevated levels of naturally occurring radionuclides and NORM legacy sites. Different detector types were used and showed different results. We measured airflow along deposition detectors during deployment to assess wind bias and used statistical models to attain location-specific sheltering factors. These models assess how explanatory terms like point measurements with anemometer, predicted airflow along detectors, and levels of 220Rn and 222Rn explained variation in deposition detector measurements of TnP and RnP. For all the detector types, unrealistically, high equilibrium values (F) were found between progenitor noble gas and progeny before correcting for wind bias. Results suggest a magnitude of wind bias on TnP deposition detectors being a fraction of 0.74–0.96 (mean: 0.87) of the total measurement.

Abstract
Electro-optic (EO) modulators for silicon photonics using CMOS-compatible materials and processes are in great demand. In this study, epitaxial (100)-undoped HfO2 and Y-doped HfO2 thin films were fabricated on Sn-doped In2O3/yttria-stabilized zirconia(100) substrates at room temperature via magnetron sputtering. EO measurement of the Y-HfO2 film using modulation ellipsometry showed that the phase was changed by 180° after application of positive and negative poling biases, and the modulation amplitude increased linearly with increasing AC electric field, indicating a linear EO effect based on ferroelectricity. The observed results indicate that ferroelectric HfO2-based films are viable candidates for CMOS-compatible EO devices.

Tujuan penelitian pada STMIK Rosma Karawang ini adalah memperbaharui sistem pengisian FRS oleh mahasiswa yang masih menggunakan cara manual menjadi sistem informasi pengisian FRS Online berbasis Web menggunakan PHP dan MySQL sebagai Database. Metode yang digunakan oleh penulis yaitu metode waterfall terdiri dari beberapa fase yaitu analisa terhadap kebutuhan (pengumpulan data), perancangan (pembuatan desain sistem usulan), Coding/penulisan kode program dan Penerapan/pengujian program (Integration & Testing) tahapan ini bisa dikatakan final dalam pembuatan sebuah sistem. Setelah melakukan analisa, desain dan pengkodean maka sistem dapat digunakan oleh User. Hasil penelitian penulis menemukan bahwa proses pengisian FRS masih melakukan sistem secara manual yaitu dengan mengisi lembar pengisian FRS yang sewaktu-waktu dapat rusak atau hilang. Terkadang ada mahasiswa yang memperlambat pengumpulan FRS dengan berbagai macam alasan. Selain itu, mahasiswa terlalu bergantung dengan Kaprodi karena pengisian FRS manual memerlukan bimbingan dan Dosen yang bersangkutan tidak sewaktu-waktu dapat melaksanakan bimbingan karena jadwal mengajar atau sebagainya. Hal ini membuat proses pengisian FRS menjadi terlambat. Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini, yaitu melalui pemograman berbasis php ini diharapkan dapat memecahkan masalah pada sistem terdahulu yang tidak terkomputerisasi dengan baik. Diharapkan sistem ini dapat diakses kapan dan dimana saja. Sehingga membantu berbagai pihak, baik mahasiswa dalam pengumpulan FRS tepat waktu dan bagian BAAK dalam memproses data mata kuliah untuk menentukan jadwal perkuliahan.
Methods to split cognitive task data for estimating split-half reliability: A comprehensive review and systematic assessment
Authors: Pronk Thomas , Molenaar Dylan , Wiers Reinout W. , Murre Jaap 
Published: June 2021

AbstractEstimating the reliability of cognitive task datasets is commonly done via split-half methods. We review four methods that differ in how the trials are split into parts: a first-second half split, an odd-even trial split, a permutated split, and a Monte Carlo-based split. Additionally, each splitting method could be combined with stratification by task design. These methods are reviewed in terms of the degree to which they are confounded with four effects that may occur in cognitive tasks: effects of time, task design, trial sampling, and non-linear scoring. Based on the theoretical review, we recommend Monte Carlo splitting (possibly in combination with stratification by task design) as being the most robust method with respect to the four confounds considered. Next, we estimated the reliabilities of the main outcome variables from four cognitive task datasets, each (typically) scored with a different non-linear algorithm, by systematically applying each splitting method. Differences between methods were interpreted in terms of confounding effects inflating or attenuating reliability estimates. For three task datasets, our findings were consistent with our model of confounding effects. Evidence for confounding effects was strong for time and task design and weak for non-linear scoring. When confounding effects occurred, they attenuated reliability estimates. For one task dataset, findings were inconsistent with our model but they may offer indicators for assessing whether a split-half reliability estimate is appropriate. Additionally, we make suggestions on further research of reliability estimation, supported by a compendium R package that implements each of the splitting methods reviewed here.
Is long-term memory used in a visuo-spatial change-detection paradigm?
Authors: Goecke Benjamin , Oberauer Klaus 
Published: June 2021

AbstractIn tests of working memory with verbal or spatial materials, repeating the same memory sets across trials leads to improved memory performance. This well-established “Hebb repetition effect” could not be shown for visual materials in previous research. The absence of the Hebb effect can be explained in two ways: Either persons fail to acquire a long-term memory representation of the repeated memory sets, or they acquire such long-term memory representations, but fail to use them during the working memory task. In two experiments (N1 = 18 and N2 = 30), we aimed to decide between these two possibilities by manipulating the long-term memory knowledge of some of the memory sets used in a change-detection task. Before the change-detection test, participants learned three arrays of colors to criterion. The subsequent change-detection test contained both previously learned and new color arrays. Change detection performance was better on previously learned compared with new arrays, showing that long-term memory is used in change detection.

Authors: Li Siqi , Yin Jing , Xu Lan 
Published: June 2021

As biomaterials with excellent biocompatibility, biodegradation and low toxicity, poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) and poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) are widely applied as wound dressing and surgical suture in biomedical field. In this paper, an oblique section free surface eletrospinning (OSFSE) apparatus was utilized to prepare high-quality and high-output ZnO/PLGA/PCL nanofiber membranes (NFMs) for antibacterial materials. The effects of the weight ratio of PLGA and PCL on the viscosity and conductivity of electrospinning solutions as well as the yield, morphology and wettability of PLGA/PCL NFMs were researched, and the optimal weight ratio of 6:4 was determined. Then the effects of ZnO contents on the electrospinning solution properties as well as the yield, morphology, structure, wettability, mechanical property and antibacterial performance of ZnO/PLGA/PCL NFMs with the optimal ratio of PLGA and PCL were studied. The results indicated that the addition of ZnO could improve significantly the antibacterial effect of NFMs, and the NFMs with 3 wt% ZnO had excellent antibacterial activity against E. coli (95.3%) and S. aureus (95.7%).

The impact of feedback on tactile discrimination task performance
Authors: Arun Ashikha , Kalmath Prarthana , Sivakumar Millena 
Published: June 2021

Research in the fields of psychology and neuroscience often rely on tasks that participants perform to fulfill the requirements of a study. These tasks are administered with either feedback, partial feedback, or no feedback given to the participant. The purpose of this study is to compare and contrast the impact of feedback vs. no feedback on a tactile discrimination task. The goal of providing feedback should, in theory, be to motivate participants while performing a task without altering the results. To test this hypothesis, a group of 22 participants was instructed to take two sequential amplitude discrimination tests using the Brain Gauge; one test with feedback and one without. The results show a clear indication that when presented with feedback, participants performed better than without feedback, and it was speculated that the improvement in performance was due to an improvement in motivation, which was supported by a simple survey. The study results suggest that future research should utilize feedback as a means for motivation in participants and should investigate the effects of only positive or negative feedback as well as how feedback would affect scores and motivation levels during long-term experiments.

Abstract
We report the timing and spectral analyses of the type-II X-ray bursts from the rapid burster (MXB 1730–335) observed by the Hard X-ray Modulation Telescope (Insight-HXMT) and Swift/X-Ray Telescope (XRT). By stacking the long-duration bursts, we find for the first time that the hard X-rays are lagging behind the soft X-rays by 3 s. However, such a lag is not visible for the short-duration bursts, probably because of the poor statistics. For all bursts the energy spectrum is found to be nonthermal, thanks to the broadband coverage of Insight-HXMT. These findings provide new insights into the type-II bursts and require a temporally visible corona for possible interpretation.
