A crucial trait of a high economic value of goats is calving to more than one kid (prolificacy potency). The high prolificacy potency (> 1 kid) has a higher income compared to single kids. This study described the potential of Indonesian Local Etawah Goat (ILEG) for prolific trait and the morphometric of body and breeding values in various environments as a basis for selection. It involved smallholder farmers who breed ILEG does from 14 villages in East Java. The research was conducted on a field survey to obtain primary data about the phenotypic superior ILEG goats based on the status of the prolific trait. The study used 520 does with 1347 prolific records obtained. The results showed that the prolificacy values ranged from 2.12-1.42 heads/calving (medium to high category). The variation of prolificacy was 0.53, and the breeding values of the prolificacy trait were 1.48-1.74. The average of body morphometrics was varied with the following details. Chest circumference was 81.06 + 4.63 cm, body length was 76.64 + 4.33 cm, shoulder height was 75.34 + 5.83 cm and ear length were 27.44 + 3.02 cm. This study concluded that the prolific rate was medium to high category. The prolific variation was higher than body morphometry variation, and the prolificacy EBVs of breeding villages divided into four unique pattern boxplots. The prolific trait could be the basis for new considerations in the ILEG breeding program, either through selection or mating.

Published: April 2021

HSD17β13 (17beta 13-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases) are important enzymes in steroid metabolism. This study investigated the polymorphisms and expression of the HSD17β13 gene in lamb quality traits in Indonesian sheep. A total of 200 of rams of seven breeds administered in the study were Javanese fat-tailed (JFT), Javanese thin-tailed (JTT), Garut sheep (GS), Jonggol sheep (JS), Garut composite sheep (GCS), Compass agrinac sheep (CAS), Barbados cross sheep (BCS) aged 10-12 months and weighed 20-30 kg. The Polymerase Chain Reaction-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) and MspI enzyme restriction were performed to identify the polymorphism of the HSD17β13 gene. The lamb quality traits were measured for physical quality, flavor, odor, and fatty acid composition. The results showed that the HSD17β13 gene was polymorphic and had three genotypes i.e., CC, CT, and TT. The highest genotype frequency was the CC when compared to the other genotypes. The allele frequency of HSD17β13 gene was not in Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium. The polymorphism of HSD17β13 gene was significantly (P<0.05) associated with the fatty acid composition and Saturated Fatty Acid (SFA), i.e., tridecanoic acid (C13:0), arachidic acid (C20:0), henecosanoic acid (C21:0), and tricosanoic acid (C23:0). The polymorphism was also significantly associated with the Monounsaturated Fatty Acid (MUFA) i.e. ginkgoleic acid (C17:1) and nervonoic acid (C24:1), and Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid (PUFA) i.e. eicosedienoic acid (C20:2). The level of expression of the HSD17β13 gene based on quantitative real time-PCR analysis results was not significantly different (P>0.05) among genotypes for lamb quality traits. It can be concluded that the polymorphism of HSD17β13 gene was associated with the fatty acid composition of lamb in Indonesian sheep.

Aging of Cross-Linked Polyethylene Insulation Cable Lines
Authors: Oleksyuk I. V. 
Published: April 2021

Abstract. Preference is given to cable lines with cross-linked polyethylene insulation in electrical networks with a nominal voltage of 10 kV during reconstruction of existing and construction of new industrial enterprises. The standard service life of such cables is at least 30 years (subject to the conditions of storage, transportation, installation and operation), and the actual one is determined by the technical condition of the cable. The service life of a cable line depends on the state of its insulation, the aging of which occurs under the influence of several factors. Conventionally, all factors influencing one or another degree on the cable insulation resource can be divided into thermal, electromagnetic, climatic, mechanical and operational. The most significant reason for the insulation aging is high temperature, which accelerates the reaction of thermo-oxidative destruction, during which high-molecular polymer compounds decompose. In fact, cables are operated at temperatures below the long-term permissible values, and, therefore, the aging of the insulation is slower, and the actual service life will be longer than the standard. At present, condition of the insulation is monitored with the use of high voltage tests related to destructive testing methods. When designing and operating cable lines, it is necessary to estimate the duration of the actual service life under various operating conditions. In theory, there are several expressions for calculating the service life of a cable line when exposed to temperature, humidity, electric field and aggressive environments, but all of them are not applicable in practice due to the presence of a large number of coefficients whose values are unknown. The paper presents an analytical expression obtained for determining the service life of power electric cables, taking into account the aging of the insulation under the influence of temperature and electric field.
Comparative Analysis of Vibrations of Ring-Shaped Ultrasonic Concentrators
Authors: Lugovoi V. P. , Lugovoi V. V. 
Published: April 2021

The paper provides a comparative analysis of the influence of ring concentrator shape in ultrasonic systems on their amplitude-frequency characteristics. Devices are known in which elastic elements are used either as resonators or as working tools of ultrasonic technological systems. However, the use of elastic elements as concentrators of ultrasonic vibrations is insufficiently studied and requires comprehensive research and development of recommendations for their practical application. For this purpose, a theoretical analysis has been carried out in the paper while using the ANSYS computer program, which made it possible to perform modal and harmonic analysis of ring models with various shapes. The round ring has a nominal outer diameter of 50 mm and a variable cross-section. Three ring models have been analyzed: one round model and two models of oval shape. To conduct a comparative analysis and identify frequencies at which resonance occurs, the vibration characteristics of the rings have been considered in the frequency range from 1 to 26 kHz. Results of the analysis show that, depending on the frequency of forced vibrations, bending vibrations are formed in the rings, which act in different coordinate planes. In this case, a change in the shape of the rings is accompanied by a change in the amplitude of the bending vibrations. The most intense ring vibrations along the vertical axis have been achieved in circular rings. It has been found that with an increase in the frequency of forced oscillations, an increase in the number of oscillation periods is observed. If in the region of low vibration frequencies only a one-period vibration mode is formed in the ring, then in the region of ultrasonic vibrations the number of vibration periods increases to two and three. All the considered ring models have several natural vibration frequencies with a certain periodicity in different coordinate planes depending on the shape of the rings. The intensity of the vibrations is different in different directions and depends on the shape and frequency of the forced vibrations. Examples of vibration mode variations for various ring shapes are demonstrated in the paper.

Abstract
The basal ganglia and pontocerebellar systems regulate somesthetic-guided motor behaviors, and receive prominent inputs from sensorimotor cortex. Additionally, the claustrum and thalamus are forebrain subcortical structures that have connections with somatosensory and motor cortices. Our previous studies in rats have shown that primary and secondary somatosensory cortex (S1 and S2) send overlapping projections to the neostriatum and pontine nuclei, whereas overlap of primary motor cortex (M1) and S1 was much weaker. Additionally, we have shown that M1, but not S1, projects to the claustrum in rats. The goal of the current study was to compare these rodent projection patterns with connections in cats, a mammalian species that evolved in a separate phylogenetic superorder. Three different anterograde tracers were injected into the physiologically identified forepaw representations of M1, S1, and S2 in cats. Labeled fibers terminated throughout the ipsilateral striatum (caudate and putamen), claustrum, thalamus, and pontine nuclei. Digital reconstructions of tracer labeling allowed us to quantify both the normalized distribution of labeling in each subcortical area from each tracer injection, as well as the amount of tracer overlap. Surprisingly, in contrast to our previous findings in rodents, we observed M1 and S1 projections converging prominently in striatum and pons, whereas S1 and S2 overlap was much weaker. Furthermore, whereas rat S1 does not project to claustrum, we confirmed dense claustral inputs from S1 in cats. These findings suggest that the basal ganglia, claustrum, and pontocerebellar systems in rat and cat have evolved distinct patterns of sensorimotor cortical convergence.

Abstract
BackgroundMalaria in pregnancy (MIP) is a significant public health problem, and affects both mother and foetus. MIP has both direct and indirect effects. These direct effects attributed to malaria in pregnancy are clinical malaria in pregnancy and congenital malaria. Although there has been a steady decline of malaria in pregnancy (MIP); reducing from 9% in 2004 to 1.4% in 2016, the decline, does not seem equitable across the country. There was therefore a need to identify areas where clinical MIP and neonatal was high and target them for interventions (neonatal malaria was used because data for malaria was available only for the first 28 days). As a result, this study sought to use routine data to identify areas of high transmission (hotspots) for clinical malaria in pregnancy and neonatal malaria (extrapolating for congenital malaria hotspots).Methods Clinical MIP and neonatal malaria (suspected and confirmed) data were retrieved from the national routine database. Using expected pregnancy and all clinical malaria cases as the denominators of clinical malaria in pregnancy and clinical malaria respectively, the per 1000 cases of malaria in pregnancy and percentage neonatal malaria were calculated for both conditions. These two data sets were fed into ARC GIS software and hotspots spatially determined for both conditions from 2014 to 2016. ResultsVariations in hotspots were identified both chronologically and geospatially for clinical MIP and neonatal malaria respectively. Nevertheless, stable hotspots were found for clinical malaria in pregnancy for the three years and stable hotspots also identified for Neonatal malaria for two years. Congenital malaria was extrapolated from neonatal malaria data only for Bole District in the Northern Region of Ghana for 2015.Conclusions:Hotspots for malaria in pregnancy show marked variation year on year both for clinical malaria in pregnancy and neonatal malaria and vary geospatially. The differences in hotspots in clinical malaria in pregnancy and neonatal malaria also show that neonatal malaria cannot be attributed to congenital malaria and therefore is not the effect of malaria in pregnancy. However, stable hotspots for clinical malaria in pregnancy should be targeted for intervention.

Abstract
Background: Differential diagnosis of tumour recurrence (TuR) from treatment effects (TrE), mostly induced by radiotherapy and chemotherapy, is still difficult by using conventional computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. We have investigated the diagnostic performance of PET/CT with 3 tracers, 13N-NH3, 18F-FDOPA, and 18F-FDG, to identify TuR and TrE in glioma patients following treatment. Methods: Forty-three patients with MR-suspected recurrent glioma were included. The maximum and mean standardized uptake values (SUVmax and SUVmean) of the lesion and the lesion-to-normal grey-matter cortex uptake (L/G) ratio were obtained from each tracer PET/CT. TuR or TrE was determined by histopathology or clinical MR follow-up for at least 6 months. Results: In this cohort, 34 patients were confirmed to have TuR, and 9 patients met the diagnostic standard of TrE. The SUVmax and SUVmean of 13N-NH3 and 18F-FDOPA PET/CT at TuR lesions were significantly higher compared with normal brain tissue (13N-NH3 0.696±0.558, 0.625±0.507 vs 0.486±0.413; 18F-FDOPA 0.455±0.518, 0.415±0.477 vs 0.194±0.203; both P<0.01), but there was no significant difference in 18F-FDG (6.918±3.190, 6.016±2.807 vs 6.356±3.104, P=0.290 and 0.493). L/G ratios of 13N-NH3 and 18F-FDOPA were significantly higher in TuR than in TrE group (13N-NH3, 1.573±0.099 vs 1.025±0.128, P=0.008; 18F-FDOPA, 2.729±0.131 vs 1.514±0.141, P<0.001). The sensitivity, specificity and AUC (area under the curve) by ROC (receiver operating characteristic) analysis were 57.7%, 100% and 0.803, for 13N-NH3; 84.6%, 100% and 0.938, for 18F-FDOPA; and 80.8%, 100%, and 0.952, for the combination, respectively.Conclusion: Our results suggest that although multiple tracer PET/CT may improve differential diagnosis efficacy, for glioma TuR from TrE, 18F-FDOPA PET-CT is the most reliable. The combination of 18F-FDOPA and 13N-NH3 does not increase the diagnostic efficiency, while 18F-FDG is not worthy for differential diagnosis of glioma TuR and TrE.

Abstract
Background: Coronaviruses have emerged from animal reservoirs over the past decades to create severe illness and death. They are the SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV and more recently, the SARS-CoV2. This study is focused at assessing the characteristics of published works involving SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV at global level; using bibliometric analysis. Methods: Peer-reviewed publications were retrieved from the Scopus database between 2012 and 2019. Data were analyzed in terms of the year, journal and number of publications, international collaboration patterns, research institutes, impact factor, h-index and number of times cited. Visual presentation and analysis of the data were performed using RStudio, Tableau and Microsoft Excel.Results: A total of 1707 research publications were published across the world between 2012 and 2019 with the highest and lowest number of publications in 2016 (288) and 2012 (87). USA had 249 articles, followed by South Korea (186) and Saudi Arabia (111). The total number of citations achieved was 39,094 with Journal of Virology (133) had the highest number of published articles, followed by Emerging Infectious Disease (85) and PLOS One (60). Conclusion: This research showed the international diversity of MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV research with 106 countries. It is also not surprising that United States leads in the number of publications, authors and citations because of its global power and economic strength; this can also be said with the other top countries. Saudi Arabia was among the top rank because of the origination of the MERS-CoV in the middle east.

Abstract
Background: Aging is a gradual process characterized by damage to the physiological functions that frequently lead to dependence in the older adults of 60 years or older. We hypothesize significant differences in mental and physical capacity between fully independent older adults and slight to moderate dependent older adults. Method: A cross-sectional analysis of 322 older adults of 60 years or more, with a Barthel Index equal to or higher than 60, who attended day centers during August 2018 in Santiago-Chile was used. Quality of life, physical ability, cognitive capacity, and symptoms of depression of fully independent with slight to moderate dependent older adults are compared.Results: A higher proportion of older adults with complete independence have higher levels of quality of life and mobility. Even a small reduction in independence has a significant reduction in quality of life. An increase from a 60-90 score to a 91-99 score in the Barthel Index rises 42% [CI95% 18-66] the EQ-5D score, this difference increases to 49% [CI95% 29-70] for full independence. Climbing stairs and incontinence in urination are the two main activities related to having a lower independence level (lower than 100 Barthel Index score). Ambulation and climbing stairs are the two main activities related with lower than the cutoff levels of normality for quality of life (EQ5D) and physical condition (TUG). Finally, urine and bowel incontinence, and lower levels of ambulation are the main activities related with symptoms of depression (Yesavage score).Conclusion: There were significant differences in health-related measures among different levels of independent older adults. Understanding the potential causes of these differences could help prioritize the focus of multidimensional programs on health and prevention with the aim of prolonging older adults’ state of independence and improving their quality of life.
