The High Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Hypothesis Revisited
Authors: Meiliana Anna , Dewi Nurrani Mustika , Wijaya Andi 
Published: August 2018

BACKGROUND: The strong inverse association of plasma levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) with coronary heart disease (CHD) found in human epidemiological studies led to the development of the ‘HDL-C hypothesis’, which posits that intervention to raise HDL-C will result in reduced risk of CHD. However, recent evidence has raised doubts about the hypotheses that elevating HDL-C is necessarily therapeutic. Genetic variations that associate with altered HDL-C do not strongly associate with altered cardiovascular disease risk.CONTENT: HDL-mediated cholesterol efflux from macrophage foam cells or measurements of the flux of cholesterol from macrophages to the liver and feces seem to correlate better with atherosclerotic burden than with HDL-C levels. Thus, it may be time to modify the HDL-C hypothesis to the ‘HDL flux hypothesis’, where intervention to promote cholesterol efflux and reverse cholesterol transport will reduce CHD risk, regardless of whether it affects plasma HDL-C levels. A deeper understanding of the complex biology of HDL metabolism and its relationship to reverse cholesterol transport and atherothromobotic events is urgently needed. This might lead to biomarkers of HDL flux and functionality that are more informative than simple measurements of HDL-C levels.SUMMARY: It is now clear from recent clinical trial and genetic studies that some approaches to raising HDL-C levels may have no effect on CHD. This suggests the need to evaluate HDL-C-raising therapies in different clinical populations, as well as therapies targeted toward HDL flux and function rather than simply HDL-C elevation. Perhaps moving from a focus on the HDL-C hypothesis to a focus on the HDL flux hypothesis will permit a biologically based reassessment of the optimal therapeutic approach to targeting HDL for reduction in cardiovascular risk.KEYWORDS: reverse cholesterol transport, cholesterol efflux capacity, HDL dysfunction, HDL particle size, HDL lipidomics, HDL proteomics

Published: August 2018

This study attempts to examine empirical evidence of the firms’ financial performances conducting acquisition at the Indonesian Stock Exchange. A sample of 22 firms undertaking acquisition during 2007-20010 is examined. The t-test for mean difference is employed to examine the performance for the period prior to and after the acquisition.
The results show that the firms’ liquidity ratio is not significantly different for the periods before and after acquisition. Total debt to total assets ratio and total debt to equity ratio are significantly different. In particular, the average of these two ratios is higher in the period after the acquisition. This study also documents that the firm activity ratio, measured as total assets turnover, is indifferent between the periods. In addition, the firms’ return on investment and return on equity is lowering after acquisition and the difference is significant.

Hesitações na fala infantil: indícios da complexidade da língua
Authors: Chacon Lourenço , Villega Cristyane Camargo Sampaio 
Published: August 2018

O objetivo do presente estudo é identificar características do funcionamento das hesitações na produção oral de crianças com desenvolvimento típico de linguagem. O material foi extraído de gravações (individuais) em áudio de uma narrativa estruturada como uma parlenda por 26 crianças entre 5-6 anos de idade. Cinco juízes fizeram a identificação dos pontos de hesitação em cada gravação bem como das marcas com as quais as hesitações se mostraram: pausas silenciosas; repetições hesitativas; interrupções; e alongamentos hesitativos. Considerado o plano mais global da narrativa, 80,66% dos pontos de hesitação ocorreram em situações em que se combinavam mudanças: de estruturação rítmica dos versos; de posicionamento do narrador; e de tempo e modo verbais. Complementarmente, a estrutura interna dos versos em que se deram essas mudanças era construída com palavras de configuração fonológica complexa para os padrões de fala infantil. Os 19,34% restantes de pontos de hesitação ocorreram em situações mais estáveis, tanto do ponto de vista da composição global da narrativa quanto da estrutura interna de seus versos. Esses versos caracterizavam-se por: repetição de estrutura rítmica; apresentação do conflito e do desfecho da narrativa; palavras de estrutura fonológica menos complexa para o vocabulário infantil. O aspecto não-casual, não-aleatório desses pontos reforça, portanto, a visão de que as hesitações indiciam negociações do sujeito com os outros constitutivos do (seu) discurso, já que ocorreram, privilegiadamente, em pontos nos quais co-ocorrências menos esperadas da própria língua se mostraram como um outro turbulento para as crianças.
Does Tillage or Fertilizer Provide Resilience to Extreme Weather in Southern Illinois?
Authors: Walia Maninder K. , Krausz Ronald F. , Cook Rachel L. 
Published: August 2018

Core Ideas
Dry weather causes maximum reduction in yields of corn and soybean.
Precipitation during silking increases yields of corn.
In cold years, no‐till yielded 7.5% higher than alternate tillage and chisel tillage.
Fertilizer placement had significant effects on corn yields during normal and dry weather years only.
Understanding the influence of past “extreme” weather during critical growth stages of corn (Zea mays L.) and soybean (Glycine max L.) production may help us to predict how management practices could influence yield under climate change scenarios. This study evaluated the influence of tillage (moldboard plow [MP], alternate [AT], chisel [ChT], and no‐till [NT]) and fertilizer (N+NPK starter, NPK+NPKstarter, and NPK) management on yield during extreme weather events (cold, hot, wet, and dry) occurring at critical growth stages of corn and soybean under continuous–corn [CC; 1970–1990] and corn–soybean [CS; 1991–2015] rotations located in a somewhat poorly drained Bethalto silt loam near Belleville, IL. Results showed that during dry years, corn yield was 3.8% higher with NPK treatment as compared to NPK+NPKstarter fertilizer treatment. Soybean yield was not influenced by any type of fertilizer treatments during extreme and normal weather events. Corn yields were significantly affected by tillage in cold years in which NT yielded 7.5% higher than AT and ChT treatments; however, during wet years, ChT and MP yielded 8.5 and 7.3% (respectively) higher than NT. During cold years, soybean yield in AT was higher by 12.3 and 9.4% than MP and ChT treatments, respectively. As compared to normal weather years, corn yield was highest with all tillage treatments during wet years, showing beneficial influence of precipitation on corn yield during critical growth stage (silking). Our study results showed that dry weather has maximum potential for causing a reduction in corn and soybean yields under all tillage treatments.
Fate of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles in a Biosolid Slurry Characterized for Metal Complexation Characteristics
Authors: Vialykh Elena A. , Hassanvand‐Gandaei Nahid , Langford Cooper H. , Achari Gopal 
Published: August 2018

Zinc oxide nanoparticles (NPs) present in domestic wastewaters may accumulate in biosolids used as fertilizer. In this paper, metal complexation by typical biosolids is explored using methods from the humics literature. Uptake of Zn from NPs in the biosolids is evaluated. Finally, the kinetics of release of Zn species are reported as a function of (i) pH and (ii) the presence of strong binding ligands (e.g., ion exchange resin promoting release). The investigation revealed that (i) metal binding sites of biosolids are analogs of humic substances, (ii) ZnO NPs do not survive in the digestion environment, and (iii) any ZnO NPs dissolve to aqueous Zn2+ in <10 d. Kinetics of Zn in biosolids revealed that Zn release is a function of biosolid protonation. At pH 8, Zn is retained in the biosolids, whereas at pH 4.5, 10% of Zn is released from the biosolids. Adding a chelating resin to the system at pH 5.0 led to Zn release from the biosolids as per Noyes–Whitney kinetics, releasing 85% of the bound Zn in 360 h. Fifteen percent of Zn appeared to be irreversibly bound.Core Ideas

Morphological Approach to Quantifying Soil Cracks: Application to Dynamic Crack Patterns during Wetting‐Drying Cycles
Authors: Wang Ce , Zhang Zhan-yu , Qi Wei , Fan Shi-min 
Published: August 2018

Core Ideas
We propose a methodology for soil crack recognition and quantification.
Crack skeleton, outline and nodes are produced using morphological algorithms.
A novel method for separating cracks is proposed based on SKIZ, distance transform, and watershed segmentation.
The approach is assessed on dynamic crack patterns derived from three wetting‐drying cycles.
Crack degree, velocity, similarity and network topology within wet‐dry cycles are analyzed.
Water flow and solute transport through shrink‐swell soils with desiccation cracks are dominated by the crack distribution and variable hydraulic properties. The quantification of cracks is therefore inevitable for predicting moisture movement in cracked soils. This study presents a morphological approach to crack recognition and quantification based on digital image processing and morphological algorithms. The methodology comprises three sections: image segmentation, morphological processing and parameter calculation. A crack image is first segmented and then subjected to morphological operations including skeletonization, node identification and crack outline extraction. Based on the resulting binary crack image, skeleton and nodes of crack network, we propose a novel approach to crack separation by employing the concept of skeleton by zones of influence (SKIZ) and algorithms including distance transform and watershed segmentation. Calculations of crack parameters are presented and we apply this methodology to quantify the characteristics of dynamic crack patterns derived from wetting‐drying (W‐D) cycles. Crack degree, propagation velocity of cracks, similarity between crack patterns and network topology are exemplified to delineate the dynamic crack patterns. We find that the cracking degree present hysteresis between W‐D processes, similarly to soil shrink‐swell characteristics and water retention curves. The crack skeleton simultaneously, non‐hierarchically and rapidly propagated in successive drying cycles compared to the initial drying process. The similarity between two crack patterns with similar moisture contents derived from W‐D cycles is positively correlated with the drying intensity, and the evolution of the similarity gradually decelerates with decreasing water content. The crack patterns at full desiccation across W‐D cycles exhibit a marked similarity, with a maximum similarity measure of approximately 0.8. Overall, this approach could achieve efficient recognition and quantification of crack patterns and has great potential in the 3‐D quantification of cracks or related structures.
Nutrient Supply Rates and Phytoextraction during Wetland Phytoremediation of an End‐of‐Life Municipal Lagoon
Authors: Jeke Nicholson , Zvomuya Francis 
Published: August 2018

Core Ideas
Nitrogen supply rate did not vary with time in June and July.
Nitrogen supply rate increased with time after July.
Phosphate supply rate remained relatively unchanged during the sampling period.
Cumulative nutrient supply rate was positively correlated with plant uptake.
In situ phytoremediation of municipal biosolids is a promising alternative to land spreading and landfilling during decommissioning of end‐of‐life municipal lagoons. Plant root simulator (PRS) probes can be used to examine nutrient availability during phytoremediation, but their use under wetland conditions is limited. This study examined nutrient availability using PRS probes during phytoremediation of biosolids vegetated with cattail. The probes were buried in the sediment for seven sequential 2‐wk burial periods beginning in June 2014. Plants were harvested to determine biomass yield and nutrient content. Nitrogen supply rate did not change significantly with sampling period in June and July (4.5 to 5.9 μg cm–2 [2 wk]–1) but increased thereafter to 11.8 μg cm–2 (2 wk)–1. Phosphate supply rate (20.5 to 24.2 μg cm–2 [2 wk]–1) did not differ significantly among sampling times. Cumulative supply rates of the macronutrients N, P, K, Ca and Mg (r = 0.77–0.92) and the micronutrients B, Fe, and Mn (r = 0.7–0.81) were highly correlated with cattail uptake, while the correlation was weaker for Cu (r = 0.42) and Zn (r = 0.40). Maximum attainable biomass yield (0.87 kg m–2) coincided with the period of maximum nutrient uptake, indicating that harvesting cattail between late August and early September maximizes nutrient removal. In situ burial of PRS probes appears to be an effective method of measuring availability of macronutrients but may have limited effectiveness for Cu and Zn.
