Published: June 2024

Este estudo revelou que o resíduo de erva mate (YME) gerado na produção do extrato de chá de Ilex paraguariensis não é perigoso e não inerte. O YME reintroduzido pode disponibilizar Mn, Fe e Zn no solo de cultivo de erva-mate. Uma dose de YME (84,6, 56,4, 28,2, 14,1 t.ha-1 ou não = controle) foi reintroduzida em 5 áreas receptoras da floresta de erva-mate no Paraná, Brasil para evitar destinação desnecessária de YME para aterro. O efeito da reintrodução de YME foi avaliada quanto a alteração do solo (potássio, fósforo, sódio, cálcio, magnésio, pH e condutividade elétrica) para duas profundidades (0 a 10 cm ou 10 a 20 cm), alteração da composição foliar e crescimento de seus ramos por até 210 dias. A reciclagem agrícola do YME aumentou (p<0,05) o teor de potássio em ambas as camadas do solo a partir do 90º dia e foi benéfica para a produtividade das folhas e para o crescimento dos ramos. Estudo adicionais devem ser realizados para conhecer efeitos a longo prazo. Mesmo assim, recomenda-se a reciclagem do YME para minimizar a exportação dos nutrientes do solo uma vez que não existe restrições agronômicas, sanitárias e de segurança, oferecendo uma solução inovadora e ambientalmente sustentável para este resíduo industrial do extrato de erva-mate. Aditivamente, a reciclagem minimiza gastos desnecessários com melhorador de solo para os pequenos produtores de erva-mate e prolonga a vida útil do aterro, o que também é vantajoso para a comunidade do entorno da empresa.

Abstract
The principal regular satellites of gas giants are thought to be formed by the accumulation of solid materials in circumplanetary disks (CPDs). While there has been significant progress in the study of satellite formation in CPDs, details of the supply of satellite building blocks to CPDs remain unclear. We perform the orbital integration of solid particles in the protoplanetary disk (PPD) approaching a planet, considering the gas drag force by using the results of three-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations of a local region around the planet. We investigate the planetary mass dependence of the capture positions and the capture rates of dust particles accreting onto the CPD. We also examine the degree of dust retention in the accreting gas onto the CPD, which is important for determining the ratio of the dust-to-gas inflow rates, a key parameter in satellite formation. We find that the degree of dust retention increases with increasing planetary mass for a given dust scale height in the PPD. In the case of a small planet (M
p = 0.2M
Jup), most particles with insufficient initial altitudes in the PPD are isolated from the gas in the accreting region. On the other hand, in the case of a massive planet (M
p = 1M
Jup), dust particles can be coupled to the vertically accreting gas, even when the dust scale height is about 10%–30% of the gas scale height. The results of this study can be used for models of dust delivery and satellite formation in the CPDs of gas giants of various masses, including exoplanets.

Published: June 2024

Abstract
We investigate the torus size–luminosity relation of Type 1 active galactic nuclei (AGNs) based on the reverberation-mapping analysis using the light curves of the optical continuum and the IR continuum obtained with the W1 and W2 bands of the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer survey. The final sample consists of 446 and 416 AGNs, respectively, for W1- and W2-band light curves, covering a large dynamic range of bolometric luminosity from 1043.4 to 1047.6 erg s−1, which show reliable lag measurements based on our quality assessment analysis. After correcting for the accretion disk contamination in the observed IR flux, we constrain the torus size (R
dust) and AGN bolometric luminosity (L
bol) relationship with the best-fit slope of 0.39 (0.33) for the W1 (W2) band, which is shallower than expected from the dust radiation equilibrium model. By combining the previous K-band lag measurements, we find that the measured torus size depends on the observed wavelength of the dust radiation, as R
dust,K
: R
dust,W1: R
dust,W2 = 1.0:1.5:1.8 (R
dust ∝ λ
0.80) at L
bol = 1046 erg s−1, confirming a stratified structure of the torus, where wavelength-dependent emissions originate from distinct regions of the torus. By investigating the deviation from the best-fit torus size–luminosity relation, we find a moderate correlation between the offset from the R
dust–L
bol relation and Eddington ratio. This suggests a possible influence of the Eddington ratio on the observed flattening of the R
dust–L
bol relationship.
Spectropolarimetric Radio Imaging of Faint Gyrosynchrotron Emission from a CME: A Possible Indication of the Insufficiency of Homogeneous Models
Authors: Kansabanik Devojyoti , Mondal Surajit , Oberoi Divya 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
The geo-effectiveness of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) is determined primarily by their magnetic fields. Modeling of gyrosynchrotron (GS) emission is a promising remote sensing technique to measure the CME magnetic field at coronal heights. However, faint GS emission from CME flux ropes is hard to detect in the presence of bright solar emission from the solar corona. With high dynamic-range spectropolarimetric meter wavelength solar images provided by the Murchison Widefield Array, we have detected faint GS emission from a CME out to ∼8.3 R
⊙, the largest heliocentric distance reported to date. High-fidelity polarimetric calibration also allowed us to robustly detect circularly polarized emission from GS emission. For the first time in the literature, Stokes V detection has jointly been used with Stokes I spectra to constrain GS models. One expects that the inclusion of polarimetric measurement will provide tighter constraints on the GS model parameters. Instead, we found that homogeneous GS models, which have been used in all prior works, are unable to model both the total intensity and circular polarized emission simultaneously. This strongly suggests the need for using inhomogeneous GS models to robustly estimate the CME magnetic field and plasma parameters.
Population Responses of Blueback Herring to Dam Passage Standards and Additive Mortality Sources
Authors: Stich D. , Eakin W. , Kenney G. 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
The management of anadromous fishes is inherently complicated because this suite of species exhibits complex life histories in multiple habitats and is subject to varying natural and anthropogenic influences during discrete ontogenetic periods. Fishery scientists and managers often adopt life history–based simulation models to help understand potential effects of management decisions on fish populations while incorporating uncertainty in life history, climate, and other components of resource management systems. We applied one such model to Blueback Herring Alosa aestivalis in the Hudson River watershed, New York, USA. Our goal was to better understand influences of historical habitat loss on anadromous fishes and determine to what extent and under what conditions novel habitat created by canal infrastructure might confer increased population abundance. We found that access to historical habitat in the upper Hudson River increased population abundance at all upstream dam passage rates with sufficient downstream survival of adult and juvenile Blueback Herring but that abundance decreased with increasing upstream passage relative to the “no passage” scenario when downstream survival through dams was not sufficiently high. Access to novel spawning habitat in the Mohawk River canal system resulted in increased abundance of Blueback Herring when downstream survival of adults and juveniles was at least 0.80/dam, and both upstream passage and probability of using the Mohawk River were greater than approximately 0.25. Both mortality during upstream passage of locks in the Mohawk River and marine fishery mortality had the potential to reduce Blueback Herring abundance below historical population abundance, despite access to novel spawning habitat. These results highlight the complexity associated with effects of upstream and downstream fish passage standards on population responses while emphasizing similarities observed in other diadromous species and watersheds.
Applications of Underwater Video for Imperiled Fish Species Population Monitoring

Published: June 2024

Abstract
Common freshwater fish sampling methods (e.g., seining and electrofishing) are inherently invasive and often not appropriate for imperiled species. Visual observation methods provide a noninvasive alternative for population monitoring. Despite increasing popularity, the use of underwater video to monitor imperiled fishes is relatively unexplored. We evaluated the efficacy of underwater video to estimate occurrence and abundance of the imperiled Comanche Springs Pupfish Cyprinodon elegans using both point observations and time intervals (surveys). We deployed camera traps at sites within major habitat types (pool, canal, and ciénaga) of Balmorhea State Park, Texas, United States, in March and October 2019 (seasons). We detected Comanche Springs at all occupied sites in both seasons when viewing ∼30 min of video. The species was detected at 80% of occupied sites when viewing ∼10 min and ∼5 min of video in March and October, respectively. Comanche Springs Pupfish detection probability was higher in October, with no variability among habitat types. On average, cumulative species detection probability was &gt;0.9 with 15 60-s surveys. However, species detection probability of a single survey ranged from 0.02 to 0.62 (mean = 0.14). Although there was no variation between seasons or among habitats, variation was high in the detection of the maximum Comanche Springs Pupfish count among sites even with observations every 5 s. Individual capture probability from a repeated-count abundance model was less variable than species detection probability (0.01–0.33) and generally low (mean = 0.06). Site absolute abundance was generally comparable among major habitats but with higher uncertainty with increasing maximum count. Our study provides a comprehensive assessment of underwater video for imperiled fish species population monitoring. The findings show a trade-off between processing effort and information loss and limitations associated with imperfect detection and individual capture common to any fish sampling method.

Authors: Mohamed Nagwa H. , Zikri Emad N. , Ali Asmaa , Elsheikh Mai S. 
Published: June 2024

Background/aim
There is an urgent need to diminish BMI due to the increased prevalence of chronic critical diseases accompanied by overweight and obesity. Laser acupuncture (LA) is a complementary modality that might lower the BMI by diminishing the abdominal and visceral adipose tissue content and influencing the regulation of the lipid metabolism process. It is a painless tool which is almost free from side effects. The aim of the present study is to assess the BMI in obese patients after semiconductor LA therapy.

Patients and methods
This is a randomized clinical trial study that enrolled 111 obese patients who visited the Acupuncture and Laser Clinic, Excellence Medical Centre, National Research Centre, Cairo, Egypt. They received 19 successive LA sessions for 2 months without any intervention concerning their routine lifestyle. Low-level laser irradiation was applied at certain acupuncture points according to the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Laser parameters were wavelength 850 nm, and power density 200 mW. Calculated energy 6 J/cm2 for 24 s per acupoints. The anthropometric measurements were done on all participants before and after the end of LA sessions.

Results
The present result indicated that there is a significant decrease in weight (P<0.05), with a percent of changes –5.8%. Additionally, the BMI showed a significant decrease (P<0.05), with a percent of changes –6.1% after 2 months of stimulated LA sessions compared to before laser therapy. Also, more than 15 sessions gave 95% sensitivity, 100% specificity for successful significant response, and the number of LA sessions had a significant good utility in predicting successful responses in weight reduction and BMI management.

Conclusion
The upgrading of the conducted LA sessions had a promising value in different grades of obesity and was safely applicable for BMI management.
Application of neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio and red blood cell distribution width in diabetes mellitus complicated with heart failure
Authors: Pang Jie , Qian Lin-Yan , Lv Ping , Che Xiao-Ru 
Published: June 2024

BACKGROUND
Accumulating clinical evidence has shown that diabetes mellitus (DM) is a serious risk factor for cardiovascular disorders and an important factor for adverse cardiovascular events.
AIM
To explore the value of the combined determination of the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and red blood cell distribution width (RDW) in the early diagnosis and prognosis evaluation of DM complicated with heart failure (HF).
METHODS
We retrospectively analyzed clinical data on 65 patients with type 2 DM (T2DM) complicated with HF (research group, Res) and 60 concurrent patients with uncomplicated T2DM (control group, Con) diagnosed at Zhejiang Provincial People’s Hospital between January 2019 and December 2021. The NLR and RDW values were determined and comparatively analyzed, and their levels in T2DM + HF patients with different cardiac function grades were recorded. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were plotted to determine the NLR and RDW values (alone and in combination) for the early diagnosis of HF. The correlation between NLR and RDW with the presence or absence of cardiac events was also investigated.
RESULTS
Higher NLR and RDW levels were identified in the Res vs the Con groups (P < 0.05). The NLR and RDW increased gradually and synchronously with the deterioration of cardiac function in the Res group, with marked differences in their levels among patients with grade II, III, and IV HF (P < 0.05). ROC curve analysis revealed that NLR combined with RDW detection had an area under the curve of 0.915, a sensitivity of 76.9%, and a specificity of 100% for the early diagnosis of HF. Furthermore, HF patients with cardiac events showed higher NLR and RDW values compared with HF patients without cardiac events.
CONCLUSION
NLR and RDW were useful laboratory indicators for the early diagnosis of DM complicated with HF, and their joint detection was beneficial for improving diagnostic efficiency. Additionally, NLR and RDW values were directly proportional to patient outcomes.

Published: June 2024

BACKGROUND
Dry eye syndrome (DES) after diabetic cataract surgery can seriously affect the patient’s quality of life. Therefore, effective alleviation of symptoms in patients with this disease has important clinical significance.
AIM
To explore the clinical effect of recombinant human epidermal growth factor (rhEGF) plus sodium hyaluronate (SH) eye drops on DES after cataract surgery in patients with diabetes.
METHODS
We retrospectively evaluated 82 patients with diabetes who experienced DES after cataract surgery at Tianjin Beichen Hospital, Affiliated Hospital of Nankai University between April 2021 and April 2023. They were classified into an observation group (42 cases, rhEGF + SH eye drops) and a control group (40 cases, SH eye drops alone), depending on the different treatment schemes. The thera-peutic efficacy, dry eye symptom score, tear film breakup time (TFBUT), basic tear secretion score [assessed using Schirmer I test (SIt)], corneal fluorescein staining (FL) score, tear inflammatory markers, adverse reactions during treatment, and treatment satisfaction were compared between the two groups.
RESULTS
Therapeutic efficacy was higher in the observation group compared with the control group. Both groups showed improved TFBUT and dry eye, as well as improved SIt and FL scores after treatment, with a more pronounced improvement in the observation group. Although no marked differences in adverse reactions were observed between the two groups, treatment satisfaction was higher in the observation group.
CONCLUSION
rhEGF + SH eye drops rendered clinical benefits to patients by effectively ameliorating dry eye and visual impairment with favorable efficacy, fewer adverse reactions, and high safety levels. Thus, this treatment should be promoted in clinical practice.
