Availability, nutritional balance, and needs for dairy cattle feed resources in Derashe Special District, Southern Ethiopia
Authors: Bekele Esatu , Bogale Tezera 
Published: March 2023

The goal of this study, which was conducted in the Derashe District of Southern Ethiopia, was to balance the district's needs for dairy cattle with the availability of feed resources. Data were gathered by field observations, key informant interviews, and a standardized questionnaire. With 149 responses, the district was divided into three agro-ecologies. Using a technique called probability proportional to size-sampling, the number of responders was calculated. Lowland,mid-altitude, and highland regions all had average land sizes of 1.67, 0.27, and 1.38 ha, respectively. The research district's entire livestock population was calculated to be 134,948.84 TLU. Cattle made up 83.23% of this, followed by goats 6.19%, donkeys 5.09%, sheep 3.51%, chickens 1.19%, mules 0.53%, horses 0.18 percent, and camels 0.002% of the district's total TLU of the animal population. There were 9.5 heads of local and crossbred cows in each household'saverage herd. Dairy cattle in the study locations primarily ate natural pasture, crop residues, crop aftershock grazing, standing hay, maize that had been thinned, and unconventional feeds (Cheka atella and Areke atella). Grazing land produced 97.75 tons of dry matter per year, crop leftovers 827.21 tons, conventional feeds 264.78 tons, fodder trees and shrubs 1.29 tons, crop aftermath grazing 110 tons, concentrates 0.5 tons, and forest land 30.54 tons. A total TLU value of 1693.5 was obtained by analyzing the overall feed balance in terms of DM yield annually. The present TLU units with a negative balance of 2513.16 tons demand about 3861.85 tons of DM annually. There was a deficit of 140 tons in the total CP produced and needed for the TLU, which came to 477.18 and 617.72 CP tons, respectively. Overall metabolizable energy (ME) produced and needed for the TLU were 25,739.3 and 73683.72 tons MJ, respectively, with a negative balance of 47,944.42 tons MJ of ME. Free grazing, stall feeding, and tethering were the three main feeding methods used in the research locations. Lack of feed, a lack of grazing pasture, subpar extension services, and a lack ofwater were the main obstacles and issues for the development of dairy cattle. Possibilities for increasing dairy feed output include favorable meteorological conditions, cereal crop productivity, and road access. The growth of forage, the collecting and storage of crop leftovers under sheds, the conservation of forage, particularly hay and silage, and the facilitation of feed selling mechanisms in local market areas could all help ease feed scarcity issues.
Book Review for Denis O’Hara Hope in Counselling and Psychotherapy
Authors: Coburn Jenny 
Published: March 2023

Associate Professor Denis O’Hara’s first book examines the role of hope in healing and personal growth, and argues that hope takes a central position both in life, and in the process of therapeutic change. He notes that despite hope being recognised as one of the “common factors in therapeutic change, and despite its frequent presence in our daily lives, it remains an elusive concept. The American 19th century poet Emily Dickinson wrote that hope is “the thing with feathers that perches in our soul.” (1890/1999, p. 19 my italics). In many ways, hope remains at the periphery of our conscious awareness, defying a concrete definition. This is a point that is embraced by this book. As noted in the preface, “Hope is everywhere yet hardly visible” (O’Hara, 2013, p. ix). One of the aims of this book is to bring hope out of the shadows and make it more visible and available to those of us who work with people therapeutically.

Published: March 2023

This literature review examines the effectiveness of family and relationship therapy and psychotherapy in relation to the following seven of the key modalities. Experiential Family Therapy (EFT) Structural Family Therapy (SFT) Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) Multi-systemic Therapy (MST) Family Problem Solving Solution Focused Therapy (SFT) Narrative Therapy It is acknowledged that these modalities represent only a sample of the many forms of family therapy practiced in Australia and elsewhere. They do represent however some of the key approaches. This review poses the central research question: ‘To what extent, if any, is family and relationship therapy and psychotherapy effective?’ The review systematically poses this question when examining each of the seven key modalities. The review assumes that the common aim of each of these modalities as they relate to the field of family and relationship therapy is to identify and treat problematic family and intra-personal relationship dynamics, as defined by the client(s). The review also identifies any knowledge gaps pertinent to the research area.
Psychotherapy and Counselling in Australia: Profiling Our Philosophical Heritage for Therapeutic Effectiveness
Authors: Day Elizabeth 
Published: March 2023

A clearly articulated disciplinary base could significantly bolster the still emergent profession of psychotherapy and counselling. As the profession sharpens its profile it is important that the implications of the common factors research be fully integrated into disciplinary frameworks. The predominance of the therapeutic relationship as a factor in therapeutic effectiveness calls for greater rigour in the understanding of how that relationship works. Within an already crowded mental health space, it is timely that the profession foreground how its disciplinary bases provide that rigour. This article considers where the profession sits within a spectrum of models of health and presents an argument for deeper consideration to be given to the philosophical and relational roots of the disciplines of psychotherapy and counselling.
Numerical Modeling of the Low-Medium Frequency Vibration and Acoustic Radiation of Underwater Vehicles
Authors: Zou Ming-Song , Xie Zhen-Wu , Jiang Ling-Wen 
Published: March 2023

_
Considering the main structures of typical underwater vehicles, three types of numerical model are established, including the beam model, the shell-beam model, and the whole shell model. The results of the three models are compared during the analyses of global vibration, local vibration of cabins, and underwater acoustic radiation. Giving consideration to both the computational cost and accuracy, the proposed shell-beam model is appropriate for the calculation of low-medium frequency acoustic radiation of the main structures of underwater vehicles. The rationality and the frequency range of application of the shell-beam model are verified by calculating the fluid-structure coupling vibration response and the underwater acoustic radiation of the hull subjected to the transverse load excitation, which also demonstrate the significance of this model in engineering practice.

Introduction
The calculation research on the acoustic radiation of typical underwater vehicle structures can be generally divided into three types based on the calculation methods: analytical methods (Caresta & Kessissoglou 2009), numerical methods, and analytical-numerical hybrid methods (Zhu et al. 2014; Meyer et al. 2016; Qu et al. 2017). The analytical methods can be used for the study of basic laws and mechanisms, and can also be treated as benchmarks for numerical algorithms. However, when it comes to real ships with complex structures, it is difficult to accurately predict the forced vibration and underwater acoustic radiation characteristics by analytical methods. Previously, due to the limitation of the computer hardware, a whole ship was usually simplified as a free–free beam of variable cross section (the hull beam) when conducting the analysis of global vibration. In recent years, with the development of computer technology, whole shell models are usually established during analyses of the low-medium frequency vibration and acoustic radiation of underwater vehicles.

Fruit juices are unfermented but probably fermentable fruit extracts, stored fresh and consumed around the world due to their great nutritional importance. The objective of this study wasto determine the pesticide residues, the physicochemical and nutritional parameters of pineapple juice and pineapple derivatives in Benin. The samples were taken from pineapple juice producers and pineapple producers. These samples were subjected to microbiological and physicochemical analyzes in the laboratory.
The results show that the average pH value of whole pineapple is 4.1228±0.0130. While and the average pH value of pineapple juice is 4.0762±0.0222. Whole pineapple samples had an average titratable acidity of 85.78±2.27. The pineapple juice samples had an average titratable acidity of 85.73±4.52. Imported whole pineapple samples were found to have the highest average concentration compared to pineapple juice (0.60±0.009 g/L). The average etephon concentration is higher in whole pineapple samples (0.76±0.05) than in pineapple juice samples (0.49±0.06). The average logarithmic contamination rate on whole pineapple samples is around 2.329 log10 CFU/g for FAMT, 0.18 log10 CFU/g for yeasts and molds and 0.014 log10 CFU/g for Staphylococcus aureus. Nevertheless, the average logarithmic contamination rate on whole pineapple samples is less than 10 log10 CFU/g respectively for Coliforms, Faecal Coliforms and E coli. The suspicion of salmonella was around 0% for whole pineapple samples.
While the average logarithmic contamination rate on pineapple juice samples is around 0.71 log10 CFU/ml for FAMT. Nevertheless, the average logarithmic contamination rate on pineapple juice samples is less than 10 log10 CFU/ml respectively for Coliforms, Faecal Coliforms, E coli, yeasts and molds and Staphylococcus aureus. The suspicion of salmonella is around 0% for the pineapple juice samples.
This study reveals that pineapple juice and pineapple derivatives contained various microflora, nutritional element and pesticide residues. It also notes that the microbiological and nutritional quality of pineapple juice and pineapple derivatives varies according to the producers and depends on the hygienic conditions of production.

Published: March 2023

AbstractAqueous Zn‐ion batteries are plagued by a short lifespan caused by localized dendrites. High‐concentration electrolytes are favorable for dense Zn deposition but have poor performance in batteries with glass‐fiber separators. In contrast, low‐concentration electrolytes can wet the separators well, ensuring the migration of zinc ions, but the dendrites grow rapidly. In this work, we propose an electrolyte gradient strategy wherein a zinc‐ion concentration gradient is established from the anode to the separator, ensuring that the separator keeps a good wettability in low‐concentration areas and the zinc anode achieves dendrite‐free deposition in a high‐concentration area. By using this strategy in a common electrolyte, zinc sulfate, a Zn||Zn symmetric cell achieves 14 000 ultralong cycles (exceeding 8 months) at 5 mA cm−2 and 1 mAh cm−2. When the current is further increased to 20 mA cm−2, the symmetric cell could still run for over 10 000 cycles. Assembled Zn||NVO full cells also demonstrate prominent performance. At a high current of 16 mA cm−2, the NVO cathode with high loading (8 mg cm−2) still has a capacity of 58% after 1200 cycles. Overall, the gradient electrolyte strategy provides a promising approach for practical long‐life Zn anodes with the advantages of simple operation and low cost.

Published: March 2023

AbstractA highly efficient palladium‐catalyzed asymmetric synthesis of N‐substituted 4‐quinolones was developed via C−N coupling reaction. Various chiral quinolones were readily obtained with desirable enantioselectivity (up to 95% ee) and excellent yield (up to 99%), enabled by a simple system of palladium acetate and chiral ferrocene bisphosphine as auxiliary ligand. The corresponding racemic derivatives can also be synthesized by a transition metal‐free strategy of potassium hydroxide in DMSO. The influence of temperature on the configurational stability of these C−N axially chiral compounds was also investigated. The efficient functionalization at 3‐position further expands the application range of this synthetic technique.magnified image

AbstractIntroductionCardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) is associated with improved health and survival. Less is known about its association with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD).MethodsWe identified 649,605 US veterans 30 to 95 years of age and free of ADRD who completed a standardized exercise tolerance test between 2000 and 2017 with no evidence of ischemia. We examined the association between five age‐ and sex‐specific CRF categories and ADRD incidence using multivariate Cox regression models.ResultsDuring up to 20 (median 8.3) years of follow‐up, incident ADRD occurred in 44,105 (6.8%) participants, with an incidence rate of 7.7/1000 person‐years. Compared to the least‐fit, multivariable‐adjusted hazard ratios (95% confidence intervals) for incident ADRD were: 0.87 (0.85–0.90), 0.80 (0.78–0.83), 0.74 (0.72–0.76), and 0.67 (0.65–0.70), for low‐fit, moderate‐fit, fit, and high‐fit individuals, respectively.DisscussionThese findings demonstrate an independent, inverse, and graded association between CRF and incident ADRD. Future studies may determine the amount and duration of physical activity needed to optimize ADRD risk reduction.

Published: March 2023

AbstractIntroductionSolanezumab is a monoclonal antibody that binds to the mid‐domain of soluble amyloid β peptide. This meta‐analysis evaluated the effect of low‐dose solanezumab on clinical progression in three phase 3 studies.MethodsThe population comprised patients aged ≥55 years with Alzheimer's disease (AD) with mild dementia, randomized to 400 mg solanezumab or placebo every 4 weeks for 80 weeks. Frequentist mixed‐model repeated‐measures (MMRM) and Bayesian disease progression model (DPM) longitudinal analyses were conducted.ResultsPooled MMRM analyses showed a statistically significant effect of solanezumab across cognitive and functional outcome measures. DPM results were generally consistent with MMRM results, ranging from 15% to 30% slowing of clinical progression.DiscussionThese analyses suggest low‐dose solanezumab slows clinical progression of AD with mild dementia. The ongoing A4 solanezumab study in participants with preclinical AD will ascertain the effect of a higher dose of solanezumab in an earlier disease stage.Highlights
Individual EXPEDITION studies were negative but suggest low‐dose solanezumab had an effect in slowing the clinical progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD) with mild dementia.
At 80 weeks, mixed‐model repeated‐measures analyses showed numeric reductions in measures of clinical decline in solanezumab‐treated arms compared with placebo across almost every outcome measure, and statistical significance in multiple outcome measures in each study.
Pooled analyses suggest a high probability that low‐dose solanezumab has at least some effect on slowing the clinical progression of AD with mild dementia.
Across cognitive and functional outcome measures, estimates from disease progression model analyses range from 15% to 30% slowing of decline with low‐dose solanezumab in AD with mild dementia.

AbstractPoint‐of‐care testing (POCT) of clinical biomarkers is critical to health monitoring and timely treatment, yet biosensing assays capable of detecting biomarkers without the need for costly external equipment and reagents are limited. Blood‐based assays are, specifically, challenging as blood collection is invasive and follow‐upprocessing is required. Here, we report a versatile assay that employs hydrogel microneedles (HMNs) to extract interstitial fluid (ISF), in a minimally invasive manner integrated with graphene oxide‐nucleic acid (GO.NA)‐based fluorescence biosensor to sense the biomarkers of interest in situ. The HMN‐GO.NA assay is supplemented with a portable detector, enabling a complete POCT procedure. Our system could successfully measure four clinically important biomarkers (glucose, uric acid (UA), insulin, and serotonin) ex vivo, in addition, to accurately detecting glucose and UA in vivo.
