Determining the risks associated with a high degree of damage to new varieties of hemp is relevant to ensure effective control of phytophages at all stages of cultivation. The aim of the research is to study the biological resistance of new varieties of hemp to the main phytophagous insects in the north-eastern forest-steppe zone of Ukraine.
The research was conducted in 2019‒2020 on the natural background of hemp plant population by pests according to generally accepted entomology methods in the field of the scientific and experimental base of the Institute of Agriculture of the North-east of the National Academy of Agrarian Sciences of Ukraine, located in the northeastern Forest-Steppe of Ukraine. The material for the research was new hemp varieties of Ukrainian selection, namely Hlesiia, Hloba, Lara and Sula, which were compared with the standard variety Hliana.
Weather conditions in the years of research has significant difference between themselves. Thus, the vegetation period of 2019 was characterized by an extreme deficit of precipitation against the background of higher temperatures, which contributed to the formation of high population density of major pests in the study areas and significant damage to hemp plants throughout the growing season. 2020 was marked by higher temperatures with moderate humidity. Heavy rainfall, which exceeded the average long-term norm by 1.7 times and the average daily temperature was 2.0 °C lower in May, restrained the going out of phytophagous insects from wintering grounds, which reflected in less damage to feed plants in the initial stages of organogenesis.
It was found that in the conditions of the north-eastern Forest-Steppe of Ukraine during 2019‒2020 the main species of pests in the hemp field were: hemp flea beetle (Psylliodes attenuatа Koch, 1803) – 71.5 % of the total of phytophages in the herbage, sunflower tumbling-flower beetle (Mordellistena parvula Gyllenhal, 1827) – 3.20 %, beet leaf aphid (Aphis fabae Scopoli, 1763) – 0.75 % and еuropean corn borer (Ostrinia nubilalis Hübner, 1796) – 0.06 %. It was investigated that the varietal characteristics of hemp plant affect the level of damage by dominant phytophagous insects. Thus, the plants of the Hloba variety had a significantly lower level of damage by the hemp flea beetle P. attenuata (Koch, 1803) and were distinguished by a high level of resistance to other main phytophages. The greatest damage and population of hemp plants by dominant phytophages was noted for late-ripening variety ‒ Lara and somewhat less for Sula variety. The obtained research results will be used in the development of a modern environmentally-oriented system of hemp protection, as well as in the search for mechanisms of resistance to insect pests in the further breeding process.

The article presents the results of a study on the combination of the use of two methods: remote hybridization of potatoes and radiation, their impact on seed viability: germination energy and subsequent germination. The source material in the study used seeds from backcrossing of complex interspecific hybrids (three-six-species) with different pollinators both at the last stage and the previous ones. Dry seeds were treated with γ-rays, the source of which was 60Co on the installation "Teratron Elit-80" at the Institute of Plant Breeding. V. Ya. Yuriev NAAS of Ukraine. Irradiation intensity 7442 Ku. The following options are used: control, doses: 100, 150 and 200 Gy. Other techniques are common in potato growing.
It was found that the seeds, which were stored indoors for three years (sowing in 2014) reacted positively to its irradiation. For the realization of germination energy (the first four days), germination for 5‒9 days and all overgrown seeds was the best option with a dose of 200 Gy, which exceeded the control, respectively, 1.7; 1.9 and 1.8 times. Much worse results (about a third) were obtained in the options of 100 and 150 Gy. Irradiation of seeds a year ago (sowing in 2015) had a similar effect, but in terms of germination energy it was inferior to the previously mentioned, even in control 12.6 times, although the share of germinated seeds for 5‒9 days was a small difference ‒ 2.1 times.
Proven effect on seed germination, different in origin in the control. Among the seeds three years ago, the optimal effect of its origin and irradiation with radioactive cobalt was found in the combination of 91.318-6 x Svitanok Kyiv with germination energy of 7.0 %, germination for 5‒9 days was 18.7 % and overall germination ‒ 25.7 %. Among the five year-old populations, these seeds accounted for 91.4 % and 97.9 %, respectively, relative to the first and third rates.
The mutual influence of germination doses, origin and shelf life of seeds on germination energy is proved. In terms of the total number of germinated seeds, the positive effect of radiation exposure, compared to the control, in 13 populations and their variants revealed a stimulating effect after three years of storage. A much worse effect of radiation on the overall germination was found with the use of fresh seeds. Only four populations and variants showed a positive effect on the process.

The article presents and briefly discusses the results of an investigation of the effectiveness of green manure made from oilseed radish (Raphanus sativus L.) following sugar beet and potatoes. In a field experiment, conducted in 2005‒2010 years in Sumy National Agrarian University, we examined four mechanical methods: ploughing to a depth of 28‒30 cm (conventional tillage), sweep ploughing to a depth of 28‒30 cm, disking to a depth of 14‒16 cm and 4‒6 cm. The soil is determined as chernozem calcic (typical) medium loam (low humic, slight acid). The research area belongs to the Left Bank Forest-Steppe of Ukraine. Green manure was sown after harvesting spring barley and incorporated in late October.
The use of green manure signifacantly improves the nutrients regimes of calcic chernozem during sugar beets and potatoes cultivation: the content of hydrolyzed nitrogen in the soil layer of 0‒30 cm increased by 9.8‒13.8 mg/kg, mobile phosphorus ‒ by 8,0‒13,8 mg/kg and exchangeable potassium by 7,8‒13,0 mg/kg related to other fertilized variants. Sweep ploughing to a depth of 28‒30 cm resulted in increasing of hydrolyzed nitrogen content by 106.7 and 113.8 mg/kg, mobile phosphorus ‒ 124.6 and 129.6 mg/kg and exchangeable potassium ‒ 121,7 and 123.6 mg/kg.
The phytomass of green manure had the highest effect on the rising of nitrogen content ‒ 49‒52 %, and the least effect was recieved for phosphorus ‒ 24‒25 %. Incorporation of green manure by classic tillage and sweep ploughing had a greater effect on N and P content ‒ by 33‒66 % and 19‒61 % respectively. The best yields of of sugar beets ‒ 35.4 t/ha and potatoes ‒ 30.3 t/ha have been provided by using of green manure and sweep ploughing that is respectively plus 1.4 and 1.8 t/ha related to variants with conventional ploughing. It means also plus 4,7 і 3,7 t/ha related to variants with disking to a depth of 14‒16 cm; 5,9 і 5,1 t/ha in comparison with disking to a depth of 4‒6 cm.
The highest intensity of nitrogen and potassium balance growing sugar beets and potatoes was provided by green manure - 114.9 and 136.0 % and 135.7 and 101.7 %, respectively. Use of oilseed radish and sweep ploughing to a depth of 28‒30 cm result in the positive nutrients balance that is closer to the equilibrium balance.

Introduction: Recently, efforts towards the development of patient-specific 3D printed scaffolds for bone tissue engineering from bioactive ceramics have continuously intensified. For reconstruction of segmental defects after subtotal mandibulectomy a suitable tissue engineered bioceramic bone graft needs to be endowed with homogenously distributed osteoblasts in order to mimic the advantageous features of vascularized autologous fibula grafts, which represent the standard of care, contain osteogenic cells and are transplanted with the respective blood vessel. Consequently, inducing vascularization early on is pivotal for bone tissue engineering. The current study explored an advanced bone tissue engineering approach combining an advanced 3D printing technique for bioactive resorbable ceramic scaffolds with a perfusion cell culture technique for pre-colonization with mesenchymal stem cells, and with an intrinsic angiogenesis technique for regenerating critical size, segmental discontinuity defects in vivo applying a rat model. To this end, the effect of differing Si-CAOP (silica containing calcium alkali orthophosphate) scaffold microarchitecture arising from 3D powder bed printing (RP) or the Schwarzwalder Somers (SSM) replica fabrication technique on vascularization and bone regeneration was analyzed in vivo. In 80 rats 6-mm segmental discontinuity defects were created in the left femur.Methods: Embryonic mesenchymal stem cells were cultured on RP and SSM scaffolds for 7d under perfusion to create Si-CAOP grafts with terminally differentiated osteoblasts and mineralizing bone matrix. These scaffolds were implanted into the segmental defects in combination with an arteriovenous bundle (AVB). Native scaffolds without cells or AVB served as controls. After 3 and 6 months, femurs were processed for angio-µCT or hard tissue histology, histomorphometric and immunohistochemical analysis of angiogenic and osteogenic marker expression.Results: At 3 and 6 months, defects reconstructed with RP scaffolds, cells and AVB displayed a statistically significant higher bone area fraction, blood vessel volume%, blood vessel surface/volume, blood vessel thickness, density and linear density than defects treated with the other scaffold configurations.Discussion: Taken together, this study demonstrated that the AVB technique is well suited for inducing adequate vascularization of the tissue engineered scaffold graft in segmental defects after 3 and 6 months, and that our tissue engineering approach employing 3D powder bed printed scaffolds facilitated segmental defect repair.

IntroductionMicroRNAs (miRs) emerged as promising diagnostic and therapeutic biomarkers in cardiovascular diseases. The potential clinical utility of platelet miRs in the setting of left ventricular assist device (LVAD) support is unexplored.MethodsWe prospectively measured the expression levels of 12 platelet miRs involved in platelet activation, coagulation, and cardiovascular diseases in LVAD patients by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Data were longitudinally measured before LVAD implant and after 1, 6, and 12 months of LVAD support, and compared with those measured in healthy volunteers (controls). In silico analysis was also performed to identify pathways targeted by differentially expressed miRs.ResultsData from 15 consecutive patients and 5 controls were analyzed. Pre-implant expression levels of platelet miR-126, miR-374b, miR-223, and miR-320a were significantly different in patients vs. controls. The expression levels of platelet miR-25, miR-144, miR-320, and miR-451a changed significantly over the course of LVAD support; in silico analysis revealed that these miRs are implicated in both cardiac- and coagulation-associated pathways. Furthermore, the patients who suffered from bleeding (n = 5, 33%) had significantly higher pre-implant expression levels of platelet miR-151a and miR-454 with respect to the patients who did not. The same miRs were also differentially expressed in bleeders following LVAD implantation early before the clinical manifestation of the events.DiscussionThis study provides a proof-of-concept evidence of significant modulation of platelet miRs expression driven by LVADs. The possible existence of a platelet miRs signature predictive of the development of bleeding events warrants further validation studies.

The Chinese Altai is characterized by abundant granitoids, which not only are indicators of the interaction between crust and mantle but also provide critical constraints on the tectonic evolution of the orogen. This study presents zircon U‒Pb‒O isotopes, whole-rock major and trace element and Nd‒Hf‒Pb isotopes data for granite porphyries from the Keziergayin region in the Kelan Basin. The granite porphyries intrude in the Kangbutiebao Formation with zircon U‒Pb dating of 394 ± 3 Ma. They have the characteristics of subalkaline and metaluminous to weakly peraluminous and show geochemical affinity with I-type granite. The granite porphyry samples display negative εNd(t) (−1.9 to −1.4), positive εHf(t) (+4.3 to +11.4) values, with Nd–Hf decoupling; low Pb isotope compositions; δ18OV-SMOW (6.38‰–8.45‰) is less than 10‰, within the range of O isotopes of medium-basic igneous rocks. These geochemical signatures indicate that the granite porphyries originated from lower crust medium−basic igneous rocks extracted from the lithospheric mantle metasomatized by subducted melt. They are characterized by high SiO2 contents and Rb/Sr ratios; low CaO contents and K/Rb ratios, hinting that they were formed by highly evolved magmas, with fractionation crystallization of feldspar, apatite, garnet, allanite and/or monazite. The granite porphyries possess positive Rb, Th, U, Nd, Zr, Pb and light rare Earth elements (LREEs) anomalies with strong negative Ba, Nb, Ta, Sr, P, Ti and Eu anomalies, implying that their formation were related to an island arc. Combined with previous studies, it is suggested that the existence of the Early Devonian arc-basin system associated with subducting slab rollback in the Chinese Altai, which belongs to the Siberian active continental margin system.

IntroductionUtilization of health services is not only associated with the kind of illness one has, but also with patient characteristics like age, sex or psychological variables. Psoriasis (PS) is a chronic inflammatory skin condition, in which psychological interventions were shown to be beneficial regarding not only psychological variables, but also regarding the skin status. The present study investigated with regard to which patient characteristics PS-patients with interest in participation in a short psychological intervention differ from PS-patients without interest.MethodsThis cross-sectional questionnaire study was conducted at a German rehabilitation clinic. At the beginning of their stay at the clinic, 127 PS-patients filled in questionnaires to assess the severity of their PS, stress, illness perceptions, mindfulness, anxiety, and depression. Interest in taking part in a short psychological intervention was assessed using a dichotomous item. The statistical analysis comprised group comparisons using t-tests of patients with and without interest to take part in a short psychological intervention.ResultsSixty-four of the participants were male (50.4%). Participants were 50.7 ± 10 years on average (range: 25–65). 50.4% of them had a mild, 37.0% a moderate, and 12.6% a severe PS. Results indicated that patients with interest in a short psychological intervention were younger, reported to have more skin symptoms due to their PS (higher skin-related illness identity), were more anxious and depressed, but less stressed and less mindful than patients without interest.ConclusionThis study shows that in PS-patients with certain characteristics, it might help to raise awareness on the relationship between psychological factors and symptoms of the skin disease in order to motivate this group of patients to take part in psychological interventions to improve their skin condition. Further studies are needed to investigate whether patients who show interest in a psychological intervention also actually take part in the intervention and profit from it.Clinical Trial Registration: DRKS00017426.

BackgroundChronic respiratory diseases represent the third-leading cause of death on a global scale. Due to mutual symptoms with cardiovascular diseases and potential inappropriate attribution of symptoms, pulmonary diseases often remain undiagnosed. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the prevalence of chronic respiratory disorders among symptomatic patients in whom suspected coronary artery disease (CAD) was ruled out.MethodsAfter CAD was excluded by invasive coronary angiography (ICA), 50 patients with chest pain or dyspnea were prospectively enrolled in this study. All patients underwent lung function testing, including spirometry and diffusion measurements. At baseline and the 3-month follow-up, standardized assessments of symptoms (CCS chest pain, mMRC score, CAT score) were performed.ResultsChronic respiratory disease was diagnosed in 14% of patients, with a prevalence of 6% for chronic obstructive ventilation disorders. At 3-month follow-up, patients with normal lung function tests revealed a substantial improvement in symptoms (mean mMRC 0.70 to 0.33, p = 0.06; median CAT 8 to 2, p = 0.01), while those with pulmonary findings showed non-significant alterations or unchanged symptoms (mean mMRC 1.14 to 0.71, p = 0.53; median CAT 6 to 6, p = 0.52).ConclusionA substantial proportion of patients with an initial suspicion of coronary artery disease was diagnosed with underlying chronic respiratory diseases and exhibited persistent symptoms.
