Authors: Dryha V. V. , Doronin V. A. , Kravchenko Yu. A. , Doronin V. V. , Polovynchuk O. Yu. , Zinchenko O. A. 
Published: September 2023

Purpose. To establish the features of yield formation and seed quality in switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) depending on its location on the plant – panicles of the 1st and 2nd tiers.
Methods. Laboratory, measuring and weighing, mathematical and statistical.
Results. There was no significant difference in the yield of cleaned seeds depending on the place of their formation. On average over four years, the yield of seeds from panicles of the first tier was 91.9% and from the second tier 90.6%. It was found out that in the Central Forest Steppe of Ukraine, the yield of switchgrass seeds significantly depended on both the growing conditions (year) and the panicle tier. On average over the years of research, significantly higher seed yield was formed on the panicle of the first tier of both varieties. It was 0.83 g on the panicle of the first tier in variety 'Cave-in-Rock' and 0.70 g in 'Sunburst'. On the panicle of the second tier, the productivity was significantly lower − by 0.35 and 0.31 g, respectively (LSD0.05 tier = 0.24), and was 0.48 g and 0.39 g per panicle. Any significant difference based on varietal characteristics was not detected. The biggest influence on seed yield made cultivation conditions of the year (47.7%) followed by panicle layer (32.9%). The influence of other factors and their interaction was insignificant. The quality of the seed depended both on varietal characteristics and on the place of its formation on the plants. On average, over four years, the seed quality indicators - germination energy and germination – from panicles of the first tier were significantly higher in ‘Cave-in-Rock’, amounting 33% and 34%, respectively. In the second tier, on the contrary, the indicators were higher in ‘Sunburst’ and amounted to 35% (LSD0.05 variety = 0.3%).
Conclusions. The yield and quality of switchgrass seeds was significantly affected by cultivation conditions of the year, varietal characteristics and the place of grain formation. The highest yield was formed on the panicle of the first tier in both varieties. 'Cave-in-Rock' formed significantly higher seed yield on the panicles of all tiers, compared to 'Sunburst'. A significantly higher seed germination and germination energy was obtained with the seeds harvested from the panicles of the first tier.

Published: September 2023

Purpose. To determine the yield and quality of different kidney bean varieties.
Methods. Field (determination of yield); laboratory (determination of the 1000 kernel weight and the protein and starch content in grain); mathematical and statistical analysis.
Results. On average, over two years of research, the highest yield (3.31 t/ha) was obtained in ‘Podolianka’ variety, while the lowest (1.02 t/ha) in ‘Dvadesiatytsia’. The yield at the level of 2.04–2.72 t/ha was obtained in varieties ‘Bilosnizhka’, ‘Pervomaiska’, ‘Oniks’, ‘Bukovynka’, ‘Mavka’, ‘Zhuravka’, and ‘Shchedra’. However, the yield was 22–62% lower compared to ‘Podolianka’ variety. The yield of the rest studied varieties varied from 1.29 to 1.81 t/ha. The highest 1000 kernel weight was obtained in ‘Podolianka’ and ‘Bukovynka’ varieties (230 and 245 g, respectively). This indicator was the lowest in ‘Zlatko’ and ‘Dvadesiatytsia’, 106 and 113 g, respectively. In the rest of studied varieties, 1000 kernel weight ranged between 123 and 210 g. The highest protein content of 30.2% was obtained in ‘Onyx’ variety. In ‘Zhuravka’ and ‘Podolianka’ varieties, the protein content was 27.0–27.2%. The lowest protein content of 19.4% was obtained in the grain of ‘Dvadesiatytsia' variety. In the rest of varieties, this indicator was 20.0–26.0%. At the same time, the stability index of protein content formation was high – 0.94–0.99. The protein content of kidney bean grains in 2022 was higher (19.7–30.4%) and in 2021 lower (19.1–30.0%). The content of starch in kidney bean grains changed inversely proportional to the protein content, i.e., in 2021, this indicator was higher and in 2022 lower. However, the starch content changed little depending on the year, as the stability index was high and ranged between 0.97 and 0.99.
Conclusions. The highest yield of 3.10–3.52 t/ha was obtained in ‘Podolianka’ variety. At the same time, the content of protein and starch in the grain was 26.4–28.0 and 40.5–41.5%, respectively; the 1000 kernel weight was 219–241 g. The highest protein content was in ‘Onyx’ variety – 30.0–30.4% for the yield of 2.00–2.64 t/ha. At the same time, 1000-kernel weight in this variety was 146–164 g. Kidney bean varieties react differently to weather conditions as the yield stability index varied between 0.52 and 0.88. However, the stability index for the formation of protein content was high – 0.94–0.99.

Digitalization and Climate Change Adaptation in China
Authors: Wang Daoping 
Published: September 2023

The effects of climate change are increasingly transforming natural environments, threatening human living and socioeconomic developments. While mitigation action remains a priority, government efforts must also focus on helping people adapt to today’s climate impacts. Emerging digital technologies, which provide more efficient, rapid, and reliable risk monitoring and forecasting and enable better decision-making, can play a critical role to this end. This study develops policy recommendations for the utilization of digital tools to enhance climate change adaptation in China. This article first identifies China's primary climate change adaptation challenges, followed by an examination of successful digital solutions from countries outside of China. Successful application cases include using advanced machine learning models to develop more accurate rainfall predictions and applying digital twin systems to manage urban sewers in real time. These solutions are then evaluated in the Chinese context, leading to the formation of policy recommendations to advance similar initiatives.

Intravenous acetaminophen reduces the length of intubation and rescue analgesics in intensive care unit patients after cardiovascular surgery in Japan: A retrospective analysis
Authors: Higashitsuji Asahiko , Tomioka Yasutomo , Tanabe Tomoaki , Ami Nobuko , Tei Imun 
Published: September 2023

Objective: After cardiovascular surgery, analgesic and sedative management in the intensive care unit (ICU) significantly affects short- and long-term outcomes of patients. This study aimed to clarify the impact of opioid reduction after acetaminophen administration on the length of intubation and rescue analgesic use after cardiovascular surgery.
Design: This was a case–control study.
Setting: This study was conducted in the ICU of a cardiovascular hospital.
Participants: Datasets of 556 post-cardiac surgery participants were collected; for final analyses, 266 participants were selected by propensity score matching. Equality between the intervention and comparison groups was ensured by calculating the standardized difference and difference test.
Interventions: The intervention group was treated with the multimodal analgesic sedation protocol.
Main outcome measure: The primary outcomes were the length of intubation and use of rescue analgesics.
Results: The intervention group demonstrated a decreased total opioid consumption (460.0 vs 580.0 mcg, effect size [ES] = –0.178), opioid administration time (1,130.0 vs 2,070.0 minutes, ES = –0.306), and sedative administration time (955.0 vs 1,577.0 minutes, ES = –0.354). Moreover, the protocol resulted in decreased duration of ventilation (990.0 vs 1,057.5 minutes, ES = –0.140) and reduced need for rescue analgesics, including flurbiprofen axetil (3.5 vs 34.5 percent, ES = –0.392) and loxoprofen sodium (19.5 vs 48.1 percent, ES = –0.284).
Conclusion: This study suggested that acetaminophen reduces opioid use and improves patient outcomes after cardiovascular surgery. Moreover, this research provides essential information for developing analgesic management strategies to reduce opioid consumption in patients after cardiovascular surgery.

Authors: Tsai Pao-Feng , Oliveto Alison H. , Landes Reid D. , Mancino Michael J. 
Published: September 2023

Objectives: (1) To explore the characteristics of patients with opioid use disorder (OUD) maintained on either methadone or buprenorphine and (2) to determine the relative acceptability of integrating Tai Chi (TC) practice into an ongoing medication- assisted treatment for opioid use disorder (MOUD) program.
Design: Survey study.
Setting: The University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences Center for Addiction Services and Treatment Program.
Patients: 97 patients receiving MOUD treatment.
Main outcomes: Drug use history, treatment status, physical limitation, mental health, pain, and whether participants were interested in using TC to improve health outcomes.
Results: At least 30.9 percent of the sample reported moderate or higher level of limitation in performing rigorous physical activities, pain intensity, and pain interference. Between 37.1 and 61.5 percent of the sample reported various psychiatric symptoms. Methadone patients reported higher levels of physical limitations, especially in rigorous activities (p = .012), climbing several flights of stairs (p = .001), and walking more than a mile (p = .011), but similar levels of pain (ps = .664-.689) and psychiatric symptoms (ps = .262-.879) relative to buprenorphine patients. At least 40.2 percent of participants expressed moderate or higher level of interest in TC for improving health outcomes, with methadone patients more interested in participating to ease mental and sleep problems (p = .005) and improve physical fitness (p = .015) compared to buprenorphine patients.
Conclusions: High prevalence of physical limitation, pain, and psychiatric comorbidities were found in OUD patients. Since patients were interested in TC to improve their health outcomes, this low-cost intervention, if proven effective, can be integrated into ongoing MOUD programs to improve health in this population.

Objective: To review the current literature surrounding the relationship between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and opioid use disorder (OUD) to guide clinical identification of high-risk individuals and assess treatment implications.
Design: A PubMed search was conducted from the year 2000 to 2022 using a series of primary and secondary search terms. A total of 21,524 unique results were screened for relevancy to ACEs and OUDs. After excluding unrelated articles, a total of 48 articles were included in this systematic review.
Results: Increased frequency of ACEs was directly related to increased risk of OUD and lower onset age. ACEs were also associated with OUD severity. ACEs linked to OUD included childhood neglect, emotional abuse, physical abuse, and sexual abuse. Additionally, dysfunctional childhood home environment, female gender, and psychiatric/behavioral comorbidities increased the risk of OUD, while resilience was found to be a protective factor. Multiple biochemical markers were associated with both ACEs and OUD.
Conclusions: Children experiencing multiple ACEs should be the target of preventative intervention by medical professionals. Clinicians should include ACEs in their opioid misuse risk assessment. High incidence of co-occurring psychiatric/behavioral disorders provides multiple treatment avenues for patients with OUD. Resilience, along with being therapy target, should be fostered early in the life course. Incorporation of family members may improve opioid abuse treatment outcomes. Future research should focus on interventions interrupting the progression of ACEs to OUD along with proposed biochemical pathways.

Authors: Zareena  , Nazir Naila , Ali Shahid 
Published: September 2023

Child sexual abuse is a harsh reality and a threat of harm to children. Pakistan’s high population growth and increasing poverty has resulted in child labor on streets. Children are exposed to all forms of abuse including sexual exploitation. The main objective of this study is to find out the risk factors of child sexual abuse. The present study has been conducted in the capital city of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, Pakistan. The respondents have been selected from places where children are found most often, selling products, or wondering in search of jobs. Primary data was collected through semi-structured questionnaire using snowball sampling. The total response was found at 50, including Pakistani and Afghan refugees’ children. According to the results 76% children are deprived of their parents’ proper attention, 96% are very poor and just earning below Rs. 8000, 66% are in the age group of 8 to 12 years, 72% of the respondents have only one room in their house, 78% respondents are not enrolled in school; about 22 % sample respondents left the school early, 64% of the respondent having large family size (family members more then 6), and 98% of the victims were out of homes for earnings. It is concluded that the main risk factors of child abuse consist of poverty, child labor, large family size, school dropout, and low parental warmth. With respect to most of the variables, no significant difference was found between the two nationals.

Published: September 2023

Reproducible and transparent science requires good research data management (RDM). However, researchers are often not familiar with how to appropriately handle research data, publication options, legal aspects, and the multitude of available software tools. To support scientists at the University of Duisburg-Essen in gaining RDM knowledge and competencies, the Research Data Services developed a structured teaching program – the RDM Curriculum – for researchers from different disciplines and career levels.
The RDM Curriculum is separated into a basic and an advanced module. In the basic module, participants can select from three full-day courses that address the basics of RDM with different disciplinary focus. The advanced module consists of various 2 hour online hands-on courses on diverse RDM topics and tools. As incentive to attend multiple courses, participants can earn the RDM Badge of the University Library Duisburg-Essen. The curriculum program is complemented by specialized RDM courses and self-learning materials.
With the RDM Curriculum, we created an easily accessible and individually selectable RDM course offer that enables researchers to gain discipline-specific and individually relevant RDM knowledge. The curriculum structure can gradually be expanded to further target groups (e.g. students) and allows for continuously adding new contents in the advanced module. The high request for the RDM Badge after the first iteration of the RDM Curriculum in the winter semester 2022/2023 confirmed the positive effect of incentives. Consequently, we are planning to establish a Data Champion Award as appreciation of RDM achievements and to showcase best-practice examples at the University of Duisburg-Essen.
Monitoring the State of Open and FAIR Data in Helmholtz

Published: September 2023

In this contribution we present an integrated approach to monitoring and assessing the state of open and FAIR data in the Helmholtz Association. The project is part of a multi-method approach by Hub Matter in the Helmholtz Metadata Collaboration (HMC).
In a harvesting-approach, data published by Helmholtz researchers is found starting from literature metadata, harvested from the research centers. Data publications linked to that literature are identified using the SCHOLIX API. In a first approach to automated FAIR assessment, we adopted the F-UJI framework, as developed by the FAIRsFAIR consortium.
The information collected is presented in an interactive dashboard. It allows to explore in which repositories Helmholtz researchers make their data publicly available, to engage Helmholtz communities, and to identify gaps towards improving the FAIRness of Helmholtz data.
The dashboard is publicly available on https://fairdashboard.helmholtz-metadaten.de. The general approach as well as all program code are reusable by all research communities.

Authors: Hayon Vincentia 
Published: September 2023

Stunting adalah kondisi gagal tumbuh pada balita yang disebabkan oleh kekurangan gizi kronis, yang dapat berdampak buruk pada pertumbuhan dan perkembangan anak. Kabupaten Flores Timur memiliki angka prevalensi stunting sebesar 20,4% atau sebanyak 3.636 balita stunting yang disebabkan oleh kurangnya pengetahuan ibu tentang kesehatan dan gizi selama kehamilan, serta terbatasnya pelayanan kesehatan bagi ibu selama hamil. Untuk membantu petugas Dinas Kesehatan Kabupaten Larantuka, dikembangkan dan dimanfaatkan Sistem Pendukung Keputusan (SPK) untuk mengidentifikasi status stunting pada balita. Preference Ranking Organization Method for Enrichment Evaluation (PROMETHEE) adalah metode yang digunakan untuk menentukan urutan (prioritas) dalam menganalisis beberapa kriteria. Pendekatan PROMETHEE melibatkan penggunaan kriteria dan bobot untuk setiap kriteria, yang kemudian diproses untuk menentukan pemilihan alternatif terbaik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dari 5 balita yang teridentifikasi di Kabupaten Larantuka, 3 balita mengalami stunting sedangkan 2 balita lainnya normal. Agustinus L.O Werang nilai Net Flow adalah -0.25, sedangkan hasil sistem Agustinus L.O Werang nilai Net Flow adalah -0.3125. Perbedaan hasil antara perhitungan manual dan sistem mungkin timbul karena pembulatan titik desimal.
