1. A Decade of Dwarf Birch Growth across a Canadian Low Arctic Landscape: Exploring the Impacts of Climate Change
Authors: Andruko Rhett 
Published: April 2021

Climate change predominantly affects northern regions, and resultant vegetation change (particularly the expansion of arctic shrubs) has the potential to create large-scale, positive climate feedbacks, including the widespread release of CO2 from arctic soils. Understanding the intensity and distribution of arctic shrub expansion is therefore necessary to predict future climate trajectories. Few studies, however, have directly measured vegetation changes in the Canadian continental low Arctic, and similarly, there is a need to better understand the landscape-level factors that determine shrub growth responses to warming. Previous studies in Alaska indicate strong differences in shrub growth responses between habitat-types, attributed to higher nutrient and water supply in low-lying areas. Therefore, this study examines growth patterns of the dominant shrub (Dwarf Birch, Betula glandulosa) in a variety of habitat-types across a low arctic landscape.
Significant increases in both shrub cover and stature over ten years were found, but surprisingly there were no differences in growth between habitat-types. Further analyses (pending) will measure inter-annual shrub growth to compare patterns/degrees of variability between habitat-types. Individual shrub growth rates over the past decade correlated to local soil nutrient concentrations, but no other variables, suggesting that local spatial variation in nutrient availability seems to be the primary factor determining shrub growth responses to climate change. Overall, our preliminary results stress the importance of local nutrient variability in controlling shrub responses to warming, and challenge previous studies indicating strong differences in shrub growth responses to warming among habitat-types.

Uncovering some of the United Kingdoms most fascinating historical sites, this interactive digital website puts on display one of the newest collections in Queen’s W.D. Jordan Special Collections Library. Using geospatial location technology and a variety of digital humanities concepts, the project undertook the task of mapping over 700 architectural guidebooks from across the United Kingdom. A key driving factor in the creation of the site was the challenge of making collections more accessible to students; encouraging the use of the wide range of the primary source material. The website conjoins the large guidebook collection with literature found in the Schulich-Woolf rare book collection. Through a thorough investigation of the existing literature in the library, this platform connects the plethora 20th-century guidebooks with the many rare 18th, 19th, and 20th-century antiquity books featured in the Schulich-Woolf collection. Through an accessible platform, students are now able to view the guidebook collection, while being able to access key resources for further research into key pieces of British history and identity.

Functional Brain Connectivity Patterns Associated with Visual Hallucinations in Dementia with Lewy Bodies
Authors: Pezzoli Stefania , De Marco Matteo , Zorzi Giovanni , Cagnin Annachiara , Venneri Annalena 
Published: April 2021

Background: The presence of recurrent, complex visual hallucinations (VH) is among the core clinical features of dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). It has been proposed that VH arise from a disrupted organization of functional brain networks. However, studies are still limited, especially investigating the resting-state functional brain features underpinning VH in patients with dementia. Objective: The aim of the present pilot study was to investigate whether there were any alterations in functional connectivity associated with VH in DLB. Methods: Seed-based analyses and independent component analysis (ICA) of resting-state fMRI scans were carried out to explore differences in functional connectivity between DLB patients with and without VH. Results: Seed-based analyses reported decreased connectivity of the lateral geniculate nucleus, the superior parietal lobule and the putamen with the medial frontal gyrus in DLB patients with VH. Visual areas showed a pattern of both decreased and increased functional connectivity. ICA revealed between-group differences in the default mode network (DMN). Conclusion: Functional connectivity analyses suggest dysfunctional top-down and bottom-up processes and DMN-related alterations in DLB patients with VH. This impairment might foster the generation of false visual images that are misinterpreted, ultimately resulting in VH.

Authors: Emblad Shayla Y.M. , Mukaetova-Ladinska Elizabeta B. 
Published: April 2021

Background: Non-pharmacological therapies have been shown to be effective in managing challenging behavior in people with dementia. However, the efficacy of art therapy has yet to be determined. Objective: In the present systematic review, we evaluate the efficacy of art therapy as a non-pharmacological intervention for dementia and examine whether art therapy improves wellbeing and quality of life while decreasing biological and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD). Methods: Research undertaken between 2015 and 2020 was examined and a total of seventeen studies met the specified search criteria, with 853 participants (657 people with dementia, 180 formal and informal carers, and 16 volunteers) involved. Results: We identified four outcome domains: wellbeing, quality of life, BPSD, and cognitive function. One or more significant outcomes as having an impact on the efficacy of the intervention were reported in 88% (15/17) of the studies, whereas 17% (3/17) demonstrated significant outcomes across quality of life, wellbeing, and BPSD. Conclusion: People with dementia benefit from art therapy. These interventions when incorporating elements of being ‘in the moment’ increase opportunities for communication between people with dementia and their caregiver(s) and facilitate person-centered therapeutic activities.

Background: Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) is a rare disease that affects 1 in 11 000 live births. Recent developments in SMA treatments have included new disease-modifying therapies that require high quality data to inform decisions around initiation and continuation of therapy. In Canada, there are no nationally agreed upon outcome measures (OM) used in adult SMA. Standardization of OM is essential to obtain high quality data that is comparable among neuromuscular clinics. Objective: To develop a recommended toolkit and timing of OM for assessment of adults with SMA. Methods: A modified delphi method consisting of 2 virtual voting rounds followed by a virtual conference was utilized with a panel of expert clinicians treating adult SMA across Canada. Results: A consensus-derived toolkit of 8 OM was developed across three domains of function, with an additional 3 optional measures. Optimal assessment frequency is 12 months for most patients regardless of therapeutic access, while patients in their first year of receiving disease-modifying therapy should be assessed more frequently. Conclusions: The implementation of the consensus-derived OM toolkit will improve monitoring and assessment of adult SMA patients, and enrich the quality of real-world evidence. Regular updates to the toolkit must be considered as new evidence becomes available.
Parasitoids collected in the Caatinga

Published: April 2021

The Caatinga is the only biome restricted to the Brazilian territory, occupying basically the Region Northeast, with some areas in the state of Minas Gerais. Caatinga vegetation does not have green exuberance rainforests and the dry aspect of the physiognomies dominated by cacti and shrubs suggests low diversification of fauna and flora. For the preparation of this study, which consists of building a bibliographic summary of the main groups of parasitoids of the Order Hymenoptera (Parasitica Hymenoptera) collected in the Caatinga biome, a bibliographic search was carried out that contained published works on the following aspects: Definition Caatinga, Characteristics Hymenoptera, Characteristics Parasitica Hymenoptera, Main Superfamilies, and Families and Studies carried out and Main genera or species, during the period from December 2019 to January 2020. Although still incipient, some surveys on fauna and flora have been carried out in this type of vegetation, but many have ignored insects, which can be considered the group with a great contribution to the essential processes of ecosystems.

Wicked problems result from complex systems and often have no single solution. WKID Innovation is a framework to tack wicked problems and is modeled after NASA’s science system engineering. NASA is a leader creating disruptive technologies that alter the way that people, companies, or industries operate. It has been pioneering innovation to advance human knowledge since 1958 engineering the first human landing on the moon, successfully landing rovers on Mars, and leaving our solar system, literally going where no man has gone before. NASA drives innovation to new frontiers in our galaxy and beyond, while also collecting accurate, reliable Earth observations that change the way we live our life in the day to day. WKID Innovation is a framework to scale NASA processes for innovation, specifically by using the knowledge hierarchy to bridge design thinking and complex systems science to system engineer and manage disruptive innovation.

Water can make a substantial contribution to human life for drinking as well as purposes related to human life and human nature. Because of increasing demand for water, there is a need for dam construction in preparation for agricultural purposes, drinking, industry and also flood control, power generation, etc. Simultaneously, they have had a considerable impact on the environment. A large range of potential impacts and hazards linked to the exploitation of dams and reservoirs, such as: (i) Major change in flow regime, thermal regime, physico-chemical cycles, (ii) reduction or loss of biological diversity, particular in aquatic species, (iii) greenhouse gas emissions, (iv) increases in the number of infectious disease and accumulation of heavy metals in food web...Therefore, there are various potential health risks of the environment and residents. However, whilst dam effects are very well documented elsewhere in the world, little or no information about negative effects of dams on the environment is available from Vietnam. Consequently, this paper provides a brief review of the environmental impact of dam constructions and after that, we will investigate some strategies to deal with the effects for Vietnam. By the way, we give some insight into ​​the first studies on the impacts of dams on the environment, which focuses on aquatic species was also noted in paper.
