Link-based approach to study scientific software usage: the case of VOSviewer
Authors: Orduña-Malea Enrique , Costas Rodrigo 
Published: July 2021

AbstractScientific software is a fundamental player in modern science, participating in all stages of scientific knowledge production. Software occasionally supports the development of trivial tasks, while at other instances it determines procedures, methods, protocols, results, or conclusions related with the scientific work. The growing relevance of scientific software as a research product with value of its own has triggered the development of quantitative science studies of scientific software. The main objective of this study is to illustrate a link-based webometric approach to characterize the online mentions to scientific software across different analytical frameworks. To do this, the bibliometric software VOSviewer is used as a case study. Considering VOSviewer’s official website as a baseline, online mentions to this website were counted in three different analytical frameworks: academic literature via Google Scholar (988 mentioning publications), webpages via Majestic (1,330 mentioning websites), and tweets via Twitter (267 mentioning tweets). Google scholar mentions shows how VOSviewer is used as a research resource, whilst mentions in webpages and tweets show the interest on VOSviewer’s website from an informational and a conversational point of view. Results evidence that URL mentions can be used to gather all sorts of online impacts related to non-traditional research objects, like software, thus expanding the analytical scientometric toolset by incorporating a novel digital dimension.

AbstractThis investigation was conducted to identify the content of metals inCalluna vulgaris(familyEricaceae),Empetrum nigrum(familyEricaceae),Festuca vivipara(familyPoaceae) andThymus praecoxsubsp.arcticus(familyLamiaceae), as well as in the soils where they were growing in eight geothermal heathlands in Iceland. Investigation into the vegetation of geothermal areas is crucial and may contribute to their proper protection in the future and bring more understanding under what conditions the plants respond to an ecologically more extreme situation. Plants from geothermally active sites were enriched with metals as compared to the same species from non-geothermal control sites (at an average from about 150 m from geothermal activity). The enriched metals consisted of Cd, Co, Cu, Fe and Ni inC. vulgaris; Cd, Mn and Ti inE. nigrum; Hg and Pb inF. vivipara; and Cd, Fe and Hg inT. praecox. Notably,C. vulgaris,E. nigrum,F. viviparaandT. praecoxhad remarkably high concentrations of Ti at levels typical of toxicity thresholds. Cd and Pb (except forC. vulgarisandF. vivipara) were not accumulated in the shoots of geothermal plants.C. vulgarisfrom geothermal and control sites was characterised by the highest bioaccumulation factor (BF) of Ti and Mn;E. nigrumandF. viviparaby the highest BF of Ti and Cr; andT. praecoxby the highest BF of Ti and Zn compared to the other elements. In comparison with the other examined species,F. viviparafrom geothermal sites had the highest concentration of Ti in above-ground parts at any concentration of plant-available Ti in soil.
Design and synthesis of analogues of RA-VII—an antitumor bicyclic hexapeptide from Rubiae radix
Authors: Hitotsuyanagi Yukio 
Published: July 2021

AbstractThe 14-membered cycloisodityrosine is the core structure of RA-series antitumor bicyclic peptides obtained from Rubia plants (Rubiaceae). In this study, an efficient method for the synthesis of cycloisodityrosines from commercially available l-tyrosine derivatives was developed. Using synthetic cycloisodityrosines and cycloisodityrosines with modified structures, several RA-VII analogues were designed and synthesized to explore structure–activity relationships of the cycloisodityrosine moiety of the RA-series peptides, and newly isolated natural peptides were synthesized to establish their structures.

How bountiful is the ocean? Participatory valuation of human–nature relationships in Yaeyama Islands, Okinawa, Japan
Authors: Sugimoto Aoi , Sugino Hiroaki , Hori Juri 
Published: July 2021

AbstractValuations of nature are vital for effective conservation planning, and discussions are underway globally on improving the valuation process. Plural valuations of human–nature relationships are the key for better, more inclusive decision-making, which is demonstrated in this research using a case study on human–ocean relationships on Ishigaki Island, a part of the Yaeyama archipelago, Japan. We applied a network analysis to text data obtained from answers on questionnaires with open-ended questions to quantify the importance of values with respect to the pluralities among local people. Therefore, five core elements encompassing the values of the human–ocean relationships on Ishigaki Island were proposed as follows: “Livelihood,” “Attachment and inspiration,” “Local marine culture,” “Respect and fear for nature,” and “Anthropocene environmental problems.” The “Anthropocene environmental problems” element included social and environmental problems caused by various human activities including excessive tourism development, and the data collected through tourism market value analysis implied that past ecosystem service assessments may have over-valued or even triggered this issue. The “Respect and fear for nature” element was found to be important as a potentially unique value in these regions, but this is currently understudied within the literature related to ecosystem services and nature’s contributions to people. This study is among the first works to extract and visualize place-based human–ocean relations in an Asian country. We hope that our methods and findings will be applied to other areas, especially to the local communities of understudied countries and regions, to drive the transformative change of coral reef governance in the Anthropocene.

Abstract
Summary
The annual incidence of new hip fractures increased from 2005 to 2014 in Nagasaki and females were much more affected. High-risk factors were identified as age ≥ 80 years, winter, indoors, living room, Monday, and early morning. Seven days after admission, most patients remained hospitalized and had been treated surgically.

Introduction

Hip fractures are major osteoporotic fractures that reduce quality of life. In Japan, the incidence of hip fractures increased steadily from 1986 to 2014 and the number of hip fractures could be 7.3–21.3 million by 2050. This study aimed to determine the incidence of hip fractures from 2005 to 2014 in Nagasaki Prefecture and to analyze the characteristics of and risk factors for hip fracture.

Methods
Hip fractures that occurred in Nagasaki Prefecture between 2005 and 2014 were analyzed using emergency transportation records. Fracture type, age, sex, location in which fracture occurred, and risk factors for hip fracture were clarified.

Results
The total number of new hip fractures among individuals ≥ 35 years old was 17,395 (mean age, 82.6 years old) and the annual incidence per 100,000 population increased from 147.9 in 2005 to 235.0 in 2014. Females (79.6%) were much more commonly affected than males (20.4%) and cervical fractures were more common than trochanteric fractures in all age groups. Hip fracture tended to be associated with age ≥ 80 years, winter rather than summer, indoors rather than outdoors, and living room rather than the bathroom or toilet. Other high-risk factors were Monday as day of the week, and early morning as the time of day. Seven days after admission, 97.3% of patients were hospitalized and 78.1% of hip fractures had been treated surgically.

Conclusion
Information on actual situations and valid preventive measures relevant to hip fracture are urgently needed.
Poor speech recognition, sound localization and reorganization of brain activity in children with unilateral microtia-atresia

Published: July 2021

AbstractMicrotia-atresia is a congenital malformation of the external ear, often affecting one side and being associated with severe-to-profound unilateral conductive hearing loss (UCHL). Although the impact of unilateral hearing loss (UHL) on speech recognition, sound localization and brain plasticity has been intensively investigated, less is known about the subjects with unilateral microtia-atresia (UMA). Considering these UMA subjects have hearing loss from birth, we hypothesize it has a great effect on brain organization. A questionnaire on speech recognition and spatial listening ability was administered to 40 subjects with UMA and 40 age- and sex-matched controls. UMA subjects showed poorer speech recognition in laboratory and poorer spatial listening ability. However, cognitive scores determined by the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC-IV) did not differ significantly in these two groups. The impact of hearing loss in UMA on brain functional organization was examined by comparing resting-state fMRIs (rs-fMRI) in 27 subjects with right-sided UMA and 27 matched controls. UMA subjects had increased nodal betweenness in visual networks and DMN but decreases in auditory and attention networks. These results indicate that UCHL in UMA causes significant abnormalities in brain organization. The impact of UCHL on cognition should be further examined with a battery of tests that are more challenging and better focused on the cognitive networks identified.
DXA parameters, Trabecular Bone Score (TBS) and Bone Mineral Density (BMD), in fracture risk prediction in endocrine-mediated secondary osteoporosis
Authors: Shevroja Enisa , Cafarelli Francesco Pio , Guglielmi Giuseppe , Hans Didier 
Published: July 2021

AbstractOsteoporosis, a disease characterized by low bone mass and alterations of bone microarchitecture, leading to an increased risk for fragility fractures and, eventually, to fracture; is associated with an excess of mortality, a decrease in quality of life, and co-morbidities. Bone mineral density (BMD), measured by dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), has been the gold standard for the diagnosis of osteoporosis. Trabecular bone score (TBS), a textural analysis of the lumbar spine DXA images, is an index of bone microarchitecture. TBS has been robustly shown to predict fractures independently of BMD. In this review, while reporting also results on BMD, we mainly focus on the TBS role in the assessment of bone health in endocrine disorders known to be reflected in bone.
A Multi-scale Approach to Interculturalism: From Globalised Politics to Localised Policy and Practice
Authors: Zapata-Barrero Ricard , Mansouri Fethi 
Published: July 2021

AbstractInterculturalism (IC) is presently discussed as a foundational basis for local public policy aimed at managing migration-related diversity within ethno-culturally plural societies, especially at the local level. Despite its increased saliency over the last decade, IC is neither theoretically new nor was it always intended for mere application in strictly city contexts of diversity. Rather, it has a global origin as a political basis for international relations and negotiations. In discussing these origins, this article has two main interrelated aims. Firstly, it provides an overview of the multi-scale approach of IC, with the purpose of disentangling analytically the different empirical bases where it can frame the diversity agenda. Secondly, it explores whether a lack of appreciation and awareness of this multi-scale orientation may affect IC’s capacity to address the challenges of diversity governance at the local level. Methodologically, the article will undertake a textual analysis of a select number of leading documents framing its practice within the broader policy literature produced by the four main institutions that have advocated the intercultural approach within a global agenda. These are the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) and United Nations University, on one hand, and the European Union and the Council of Europe on the other. The main findings show us the importance of a multi-scale thinking in diversity and IC studies, to avoid contributing to greater confusion in its applications.
Learning or Leaving? Individual and Environmental Factors Related to Job Satisfaction and Turnover Intention
Authors: Puhakka Ilmari J. A. , Nokelainen Petri , Pylväs Laura 
Published: July 2021

AbstractIn addition to well-being, workplace learning has gained increasing interest in supporting employee and organizational development and success. Focusing on specific factors affecting workplace learning and well-being, this study examines the links between individual factors (basic psychological need satisfaction) and environmental factors (expansiveness of the workplace as a learning environment), job satisfaction, and turnover intention. Survey data were collected from the employees (N = 153) of two Finnish engineering companies from 2018 to 2019. The data were analyzed with correlation analysis and structural equation modeling (observed and latent variable path analysis). Results show that a more expansive workplace learning environment is associated with higher satisfaction of basic psychological needs. High levels of autonomy and competence need satisfaction, versatile work, promotion of learning, and acknowledgment of skills are positively associated with job satisfaction. Higher levels of autonomy and non-routine work tasks are associated with lower turnover intention. The results indicate that turnover intention is not necessarily associated with only negative conditions or perceptions, as high levels of competence and participation and understanding of the workplace are positively associated with turnover intention. The findings provide information about workplace factors that are relevant to improving employees’ workplace learning and well-being. The results also highlight the ambiguous nature of turnover intention.

Authors: Pautasso A. , Sabatini L. , Capella M. , Saccia F. , Rissolio L. , Boasso G. , Atzori F. , Massè A. 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
Purpose
The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical outcomes of patients treated with anatomic medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction with and without tibial tuberosity osteotomy (TTO). Correlations between patient's age, gender, pre-injury physical activity and the achieved results were investigated as secondary endpoints.

Methods
An observational retrospective study with prospective collected data was performed. Inclusion criteria were: treatment with anatomic MPFL reconstruction with gracilis tendon according to Schӧttle’s technique performed between 2011 and 2017; associated TTO as unique accessory procedure; skeletal joint maturity; a minimum follow-up of 12 months after surgery. Clinical outcomes were assessed with the Kujala, Lysholm and Tegner scores.

Results
Forty patients (42 knees) were included, 64% of them underwent TTO. The Kujala score significantly improved from 47.4 ± 17.6 preoperatively to 89.4 ± 13.6 postoperatively (p < 0.01). The average Lysholm score was 45.6 ± 20.5 preoperatively: it showed a significant increase to 89.8 ± 12.8 postoperatively (p < 0.01). Pre-injury mean Tegner was 5.9 ± 1.8, while it dropped to 3.0 ± 1.6 after injury. After surgery, Tegner resulted 4.9 ± 1.6. Forty-three percent of patients regained the pre-injury sport activity level. Redislocation rate was 2.4%.

Conclusion
Anatomic MPFL reconstruction allows excellent patellar stability recovery, knee functionality improvement, return to Activities of Daily Living and a low redislocation rate. Better results were achieved in younger (under 30 years old) and higher sports activity-level subjects. The TTO association provided clinical results comparable to isolated MPFL reconstructions, suggesting that the two procedures can be safely accomplished together without affecting the positive outcomes.

Diagenetic Control on the Distribution of Porosity within the Depositional Facies of Proterozoic Rajgarh Formation, Alwar Sub-basin, Northeastern Rajasthan
Authors: Khanam Sadia , Quasim M. A. , Ahmad A. H. M. 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
The sandstones of the Proterozoic Rajgarh Formation are texturally immature and compositionally sub-mature quartz arenite to arkose in composition. The reservoir quality of sandstones is strongly influenced by depositional facies and various types of diagenetic modifications. A significant reduction in primary porosity in the studied sandstone is mainly due to high mechanical compaction followed by chemical compaction rather than the cementation process. Arkose from the river-dominated estuary facies show infiltrated clay coating, feldspar dissolution, iron-oxide cementation, leaching of detrital by iron-oxide cement, kaolinization of feldspar, the fracturing of detrital, partial albitization and folding of mica. The pore-lining clay has helped in retaining primary porosity, and leaching and dissolution processes were the main process generating secondary porosity in this facies. Tidal flat sub-arkose petrofacies display compaction of micas and unstable rock fragments into the pseudomatrix, expansion of muscovite by kaolinite, and pore-filling silty matrix that occupied intergranular spaces. Quartz-arenite petrofacies from shallow marine deposit show grain replacive kaolinite, pyrite precipitation, glauconite authigenesis, muscovite bending, albitization of plagioclase, feldspar overgrowths, dissolution, and grain fracturing. Pyrite plays a significant role in the reduction of both primary and secondary porosity by precipitating in intergranular spaces and in dissolution voids of feldspar. Moreover, fractures in detrital act as a second cycle porosity generation process in the shallow marine petrofacies. The linking between the diagenetic processes and depositional facies provides a geologic model for hydrocarbon exploration through reservoir quality prediction. Therefore, the petrographic observations indicate quartz-arenite (shallow marine facies) and sub-arkosic sandstones (tidal flat facies) are the least suitable latent reservoir because of their lowest primary and secondary porosity and unconnected pore spaces. Arkosic (river-dominated estuary facies) compositions are considered to be appropriate frameworks for potential reservoir rocks. This study reveals that the depositional environment largely controls the diagenetic pathways and hence, influences the reservoir quality.

Published: July 2021

Abstract
Morphometric analysis of a drainage basin is important for the study of river basin evaluation, analysis of flood hazard, watershed prioritization, and for better management of the river. Primarily to mitigate flood, India’s first multipurpose river valley project was implemented on Damodar river valley, disregarding in depth study about the basic morphometry of the river. After that, in last 50-60 years, many researchers have worked on this topic in selected watersheds or parts of Damodar river basin. The present study extended the work to entire Damodar river basin of eastern India and demarcated the basin from 59 nos. of SOI topographical maps (R.F.1:50,000) and satellite images. For detailed analysis, the whole basin was divided into 103 watersheds and each watershed was treated as a unit for the analysis. Then twenty-three morphometric variables (comprising of linear, areal and relief parameters) were used to generate dataset of the morphometric characteristics of all watersheds. Using these morphometry data, watersheds are classified into different groups based on their similarities. Further, watershed-wise amount of runoff, sediment yield and environmental flow of Damodar river have been estimated for flood and erosion management purpose. Finally, watersheds are divided into different classes as per their priority in management process. This important study may assist us to understand and manage the river properly for the future of human populations during Anthropocene.

Published: July 2021

Abstract
The subsidence reported from the Rainawari, 4 kms north west of Lal Chowk (The city centre of Srinagar) in 1999-2000 was mainly restricted to Surateng (which in local language means a mound of ash) locality of the area. Rainawari, 4 km north west of Srinagar city invariably witnessed land subsidence for the past several decades and in this process most of the structures in the area suffered massive damage including collapse, sags, sinking of floors, temporal and spatial evolution of cracks, swaying, sink holes, colloquially numerous structures started sinking and tilting and major potholes appeared on roadways, thus creating panic in the inhabitants of the area. The surface change phenomena in the present study is strictly restricted to a small area, where extensive underground mining related to pottery industry has a history of hundreds of years. In this context, six ground penetrating radar profiles have been acquired from two main sites namely JLNM hospital and Surteng locality of Rainawari using 200, 500 MHz shielded and 100 MHz rough terrain antennas. In order to investigate the shallow sub-surface, possible locations of sink holes, kinematics of the subsidence phenomena, spatial-temporal evolution of sink holes, effects of subsidence on surface structures, to locate underground caves and cavities, seismic liquefaction features, geometry and trends in near surface tectonic deformation, geotechnical characterization and seismic resilience of the surface structures, the subsurface imaging was acquired using GPR. Major sub-surface observations made were underground cavities, room and pillar mining structures and voids. In addition to the sub-surface structures caused by the mining in the historical past, the surface deformations were observed in the form of cracks developed in the construction.
