Published: July 2023

Background of the study: Social media is widely used in the current educational context and significantly affects scholarly communication. This informal scientific communication activity is an activity that is not "covered" in the world of educational curricula and is more directed at increasing the scientific group by making scientific discussions. Until now, scientific discussion activities in tertiary institutions are still carried out massively by students, including students on the island of Lombok.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to measure the level of WhatsApp users for scientific communication and the effect of user motives on the level WhatsApp used for scientific communication.
Method: Using a quantitative approach with a survey method, it was conducted for seventy-five (75) library students who were actively using WhatsApp for scientific communication.
Findings: The majority of respondents indicated that WhatsApp has a high usage rate for scientific communication purposes. The results showed that information motives and social interaction motives have a significant effect on the level of WhatsApp used for scholarly communication, while personal identity motives have no effect.
Conclusion: The conclusion is that students have not maximized the use of social media for scientific communication. Students do activities to searching and searching information but do not carry out activities to build interactions such as holding discussions or collaborating to produce scientific work with other academics.

Published: July 2023

Em Manaus, os estudos de voçorocas vêm sendo realizados desde meados da década de 90 do século XX em que vários deles utilizaram técnicas de monitoramento. Este artigo visa abordar e descrever as técnicas de monitoramento utilizadas nas voçorocas da Região Metropolitana de Manaus (RMM). A análise dos trabalhos permitiu constatar que os monitoramentos objetivaram, sobretudo, estimar as taxas de erosão e predizer sua evolução e de compreender seus mecanismos, processos e as consequências ambientais e sociais decorrentes. E que as técnicas de monitoramento analisadas podem ser distribuídas em 4 grupos, quanto ao uso dos instrumentos: 1o) trena, bússola, ficha cadastral e croqui; 2o) poligonais planimétricas; 3o) imagens de satélite e do Google Earth; 4o) imagens de alta resolução espacial via veículos aéreos não tripulados (VANTs). Concluiu-se que a utilização de técnicas de monitoramento mais modernas, como o uso das imagens de VANTs, não necessariamente exclui o uso de procedimentos mais simples, como o uso das fichas cadastrais, trena e bússola e que a combinação de diferentes técnicas pode auxiliar no melhor detalhamento e caracterização morfométrica da voçoroca monitorada, assim como das feições secundárias envolvidas.

Published: July 2023

Abstract
Landscape painting is one of the unique paintings in China, mainly depicting the natural scenery of mountains and rivers. However, it is very difficult for ordinary people to master the creative skill of landscape painting, such as painting methods, painting theory, and composition. In this paper, we propose HA-GAN to transform sketches into Chinese landscape paintings, a new GAN-based framework that builds upon a hybrid attention generator and a discriminator. To generate more realistic landscape paintings, we design a hybrid attention module containing style attention, spatial attention, and channel attention. Moreover, a novel loss function is proposed to constrain the training process of the model. Experimental results show that the proposed method can generate realistic landscape paintings similar to those created by human artists.
Effect of Environmental Decentralization on Pollution Reduction: Positive or Negative?

Published: July 2023

Abstract
This study investigates the impact of environmental decentralization on pollution mitigation based on the panel data across 30 Chinese provinces from 2004 to 2019. Different from previous studies, this study uses a spatial dynamic panel Durbin model and panel threshold model, considering both time and spatial lag factors of pollution mitigation and the possibility of non-linear impact of environmental decentralization on pollution mitigation. We conclude with four main findings. Firstly, environmental decentralization is not helpful to pollution mitigation at the national level. Secondly, the environmental decentralization shows a positive spatial spillover effect and non-linear effect, that is, the local environmental decentralization affects its neighbouring area’s pollution mitigation. In other words, when the environmental decentralization is at a low level, the negative impact on pollution mitigation is relatively large; while when the environmental decentralization is at a high level, the negative impact is relatively small. Thirdly, the impact of environmental decentralization on pollution mitigation appears regional heterogeneity, where the impact is positive to central and eastern regions, but negative to the western areas. Lastly, although the decentralization of environmental administration and supervision helps mitigate pollution, decentralized environmental monitoring negatively affects pollution reduction. Therefore, we suggest promoting the structural reform of environmental decentralization, setting a proper decentralization degree in different regions, and establishing a collaborative regulation mechanism across regions.

Abstract
Acute appendicitis is one of the common acute abdominal diseases in pediatrics. However, the implementation of radiological examination guided endoscopic retrograde appendicitis therapy (ERAT) in adults is limited in children. Our previous research explored the non-invasive guidance of high-frequency ultrasound(HFUS) for ERAT and achieved good therapeutic effects. This study mainly focuses on exploring the application value of HFUS in the feasibility assessment of ERAT in children with appendicitis. 163 children with appendicitis received ERAT guided by HFUS were analyzed retrospectively. According to the parameters evaluated by HFUS before and during ERAT, the results indicated that the distance between the appendix orifice and the ileocecal valve significantly affected the time required for the guidewire to enter the appendix cavity ( P < 0.05). The diameter and the texture of the ficalith, the thickness of the intestinal wall of the appendiceal orifice all had significant effects on the successful removal of the ficalith (P < 0.05). The success rate, treatment time and final flushing effect of the guidewire to reach the blind end of the appendix were significantly affected by the tortuosity of the appendix and whether there was adhesion with surrounding tissues (P < 0.05). HFUS can accurately assess the feasibility of ERAT in children with appendicitis.
Environmental Regulation, Institutional Distance and China's Outward Foreign Direct Investment in the Belt and Road Countries
Authors: Yang Lihua , Chen Qi 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
Recent trends in green development have led to a proliferation of studies examining the relationship between environmental regulation and outward foreign direct investment (OFDI). However, there has been little discussion about the role of institutional distance in the impact of environmental regulation on OFDI. This study aims to explore the direct impact of environmental regulation on OFDI, and the moderating role of institutional distance in the relationship between the two. The results showed that environmental regulation has a significant positive effect on China’s OFDI, while institutional distance has a significant negative impact. Further analysis found that before the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), environmental regulation positively affects OFDI, while after BRI, it does not have a significant impact on the OFDI. Furthermore, a positive moderating effect was detected after the BRI, and a negative moderating effect was found in host countries with worse institutions than China. The findings have significant implications for understanding how China’s OFDI responds to the environmental regulation of host countries, considering the impact of institutional distance at the same time. This study will help provide further implications for the development of foreign direct investment strategy and the formulation of government policies.

Abstract
Background: Although preoperative chemotherapy (CT) or chemoradiotherapy (CRT) show survival benefit in patients with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell cancer (ESCC), ESCC still has a dismal prognosis. With the potential benefit of combining immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) neoadjuvantly, we initiated 2 phase II single-armed clinical trials which assessed the efficacy, feasibility and safety of esophagectomy after the combination of preoperative CT or CRT and PD-1 inhibitor in ESCC.
Methods: A total of 55 patients with histologically confirmed ESCC (clinical stage II-IVA according to the American Joint Committee on Cancer 8th staging system from two phase 2, single-arm trials underwent neoadjuvant ICIs combined with chemotherapy (nICT) (n=38) (NCT04506138) or chemoradiotherapy (nICRT) (n=17) (NCT03940001) between May 2019 and June 2022 were enrolled. Patients received 2 doses of intravenous PD-1 inhibitor every 3 weeks, combined with 2 cycles of CT or CRT. Data on the pathological complete response (pCR) rates, operative time, blood loss volume, 30-day complications, hospital stay and 30-day mortality were collected and assessed between these two groups using a multivariable log-binomial regression model to obtain adjusted relative risk ratios. The primary endpoints of the studies were safety and feasibility of esophagectomy after the combination of preoperative CT or CRT and PD-1 inhibitor. We also evaluated the pCR, primary tumor pCR, operation time, postoperative stay and 30-day mortality.
Results: All the included patients successfully completed neoadjuvant therapy. Age, sex, performance status, clinical stage, histologic subtype, procedure type, operative time and blood loss volume were similar between the two groups. The primary tumor pCR rates were 52.9% in nICRT and 21.6% in nICT group respectively (p=0.03), while the postoperative pCR rates were 41.2% in nICRT group and 21.6% in nICT group respectively (p=0.19). Minimally invasive surgery was performed 89.2% (33/37) in nICT group and 94.1% (16/17) in nICRT group. The risk of developing pulmonary, anastomotic, or other complications were similar in the two groups.
Conclusions: Esophagectomy was safe after the addition of PD-1 inhibitor to preoperative CT or CRT in ESCC neoadjuvant therapies. Follow-up and the exploratory endpoints including biomarkers analyses are ongoing.
Trial registration: These researches are registered under clinicaltrials.gov (NCT03940001, 07/05/2019, NCT04506138, 10/08/2020).

Abstract
Proteome-wide Mendelian randomization (MR) has emerged as a promising approach in uncovering novel therapeutic targets. However, genetic colocalization analysis has revealed that a third of MR associations lacked a shared causal signal between the protein and disease outcome, raising questions about the effectiveness of this approach. The impact of proteome-wide MR, stratified by cis-trans status, in the presence or absence of genetic colocalization, on therapeutic target identification remains largely unknown.
In this study, we conducted genome-wide MR and cis/trans-genetic colocalization analyses using proteomic and complex trait genome-wide association studies. Using two different gold-standard datasets, we found that the enrichment of target-disease pairs supported by MR increased with more p-value stringent thresholds MR p-value, with the evidence of enrichment limited to colocalizing cis-MR associations.
Using a phenome-wide proteogenetic colocalization approach, we identified 235 unique targets associated with 168 binary traits at high confidence (at colocalization posterior probability of shared signal > 0.8 and 5% FDR-corrected MR p-value). The majority of the target-trait pairs did not overlap with existing drug targets, highlighting opportunities to investigate novel therapeutic hypotheses. 42% of these non-overlapping target-trait pairs were supported by GWAS, interacting protein partners, animal models, and Mendelian disease evidence. These high confidence target-trait pairs assisted with causal gene identification and helped uncover translationally informative novel biology, especially from trans-colocalizing signals, such as the association of lower intestinal alkaline phosphatase with a higher risk of inflammatory bowel disease in FUT2 non-secretors.
Beyond target identification, we used MR of colocalizing signals to infer therapeutic directions and flag potential safety concerns. For example, we found that most genetically predicted therapeutic targets for inflammatory bowel disease could potentially worsen allergic disease phenotypes, except for TNFRSF6B where we observed directionally consistent associations for both phenotypes.
Our results are publicly available (https://mk31.shinyapps.io/mr_app2/), enabling others to use proteogenomic evidence to appraise therapeutic targets.
Far from Home: Tracing the non-native origin of water frogs (genus Pelophylax) in Malta by molecular markers

Published: July 2023

Abstract
One of the most frequently translocated species outside their native range in Europe are water frogs of the genus Pelophylax. Recently, water frogs belonging to the same genus have also been recorded on the island of Gozo in Malta. To trace their origin, we genetically examined 17 individuals from three Gozitan localities where water frogs have been recorded recently. We analysed one mitochondrial gene (ND2) and one nuclear (SAI-1) gene to identify the geographic origin of the frogs and a set of microsatellite markers to determine their population-genetic structure and the predicted number of source populations. Based on the ND2 and SAI-1 markers, the water frogs on the island of Gozo originate from southern Anatolia, Turkey. According to sequence variation in ND2, they were assigned to a caralitanus mtDNA clade, which is endemic to southern Anatolia and taxonomically represents either an evolutionary lineage within P. cf. bedriagae or a separate species P. caralitanus. All Gozo water frogs had only one haplotype in the ND2 and one allele in the SAI-1 gene, indicating a recent and single introduction event. These results are supported by microsatellite analysis, which revealed low genetic variability and the absence of any population-genetic structure, suggesting that Gozo water frogs originate from only one source population.
