Published: January 2023

An 18-environment field study was undertaken to observe the mean and coefficient of variation (as a measure of stability) for cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) lint yield components in population types that differed for lint yield stability to determine which yield components contributed to yield stability. Hybrids and blends of hybrids (heterozygous populations) were more stable than the parents and blends of parents (homozygous populations) for lint yield. No within-boll yield component showed convincing evidence of differences between population types with respect to stability. Stability observed for bolls/hectare followed the same trend as lint yield in which the heterozygous populations were more stable than homozygous populations. Heterosis for boll production was not consistent across locations and declined with increasing environmental mean. Ultimately, the difference between population types, with respect to yield and stability, was attributed to the heterozygous entries producing more bolls in the low-yielding environments while producing numbers that were similar to the homozygous populations in the high-yielding environments. This reduced the range of lint yield, reduced the variation across locations, and resulted in increased lint yield stability. Manipulating within-boll components might not increase lint yield stability.

Improvement in lint yield is vital to commercial production of glandless cotton. The objective of this study was to determine if glanded ‘Acala 1517-08’ could be converted to glandless cotton without a yield penalty by crossing breeding with an obsolete glandless cotton. From 500 F2 plants, 18 glandless individuals were selected, and their F4 lines were compared with both parents. This led to a selection of 77 F6 lines for further replicated field testing. Only five F6 lines produced 90 to 96% of Acala 1517-08 lint yield (LY), while three lines had significantly lower LY than the lower parent ‘Acala GLS’. Transgressive segregation in the negative direction was also observed for boll weight (BW) and lint percent (LP) in that four and 22 F6 lines had significantly lower values than the lower parent, respectively. Four F6 lines had significantly lower fiber length (UHM) than the lower parent Acala 1517-08, while five lines had longer UHM than the higher parent Acala GLS. Ten F6 lines had weaker fibers than the lower parent Acala 1517-08, but none had stronger fibers than Acala GLS. Most F6 lines had micronaire (MIC) between the two parents except for one with higher MIC than the higher parent and five with lower MIC than the lower parent Acala GLS. In conclusion, positive transgressive segregation for LY, LP and BW should not be expected in this Acala × Acala cross, while negative transgressive segregations occurred frequently for the three traits and fiber strength. For UHM and MIC, negative transgressive segregations occurred more frequently than positive ones. Overall, there was no transgressive segregation for fiber uniformity, elongation and short fiber content.

Pangapug: Pagdalumat sa Pundasyon ng mga Ritwal ng Tribong Talaandig sa Lantapan, Bukidnon
Authors: Singcolan Judith Camino 
Published: January 2023

Abstrak
Pangunahing tunguhin sa pag-aaral na ito na mabigyang kahulugan ang mga katawagang panritwal upang mailahad at madalumat ang Pangapug na ritwal ng tribong Talaandig. Ilalahad rin kung ano-ano ang paniniwala, kaugalian at kung paano pinapahalagahan ng tribo ang kanilang mga katawagang panritwal. Bunga ng nabanggit na mga layunin, pinagsikapang mabigyan ng paliwanag ang sumusunod na katanungan: 1. Ano ang Pangapug na ritwal ng tribong Talaandig sa Lantapan Bukidnon? 2. Ano-ano ang mga katawagang panritwal na napapaloob sa ritwal na ito? 3. Ano-ano ang mga paniniwala at kaugaliang nasasalamin dito?

Pangunahing pamamaraang ginamit sa pag-aaral ang Kwalitatibong disenyo sa uring deskriptibong pananaliksik. Gumamit rin ng etnograpikong pamamaraan ang pag-aaral sapagkat ilang beses na bumisita ang mananaliksik sa lugar kung saan ginanap ang pag-aaral upang personal na makahalubilo at makausap ang mga impormante. Nagkaroon rin ng aktwal na partisipasyon ang mananaliksik sa ritwal ng tribo. Pagkatapos, isinagawa ang interbyu at focus group discussion upang higit na maunawaan at mabigyan ng malinaw na interpretasyon ang mga datos.

Lumabas sa pag-aaral na ang Pangapug na ritwal ay sadyang isinasagawa bago pa man gawin ang iba pang mga ritwal lalong-lalo na ang mga pangunahing ritwal ng tribo. Natuklasan rin na maraming katawagang panritwal na nagtataglay ng kahulugan at simbolo na ginagamit sa pagsasagawa ng pangapug na ritwal. Mayroon ring nakapaloob na mga paniniwala at kaugalian sa mga katawagang panritwal na ito.

Dahil mayaman sa mga kultural na katawagan ang Pangapug na ritwal, inirerekomendang magsasagawa pa ng pag-aaral hinggil sa iba pang ritwal ng tribong Talaandig at mga indehinus na grupo sa Pilipinas at maaaring gawan rin ng pagsusuri ang wika ng kanilang ritwal upang matukoy kung ano-anong paniniwala at kaugalian ang nakapaloob rito. Sa pamamagitan nito higit nilang makikilala, maiintindihan at lalong maunawaan ang kanilang tribo.

Dropwise Condensation and Heat Transfer
Authors: R. Yuvaraj 
Published: January 2023

The dropwise condensation is obtained on a copper surface by modifying the texture of the bare surface using the thermo-solution immersion method. In this method, the solution of 0.003–0.007 M of ethanol and myristic acid is used, and heating the plate in the solution at 40–65°C for 2–5 h using hot plate apparatus. The heat-transfer coefficient of the dropwise condensation is increased on the prepared superhydrophobic surface that exhibits very low surface energy causing the non-wetting nature of the water droplet on the prepared surface. The contact angle of the water droplet is measured on the obtained superhydrophobic copper surface, giving the average value of 160° ± 2° with a low-inclination angle of 2°. The maximum contact angle of 162° is obtained by adjusting the composition of the solution, the temperature of the solution, and immersion time at 0.005 M, 45°, and 3 h, respectively. Further, the prepared superhydrophobic surface is experimented with for dropwise condensation, which provides a high heat-transfer coefficient of 196 W/m2 K over the bare surface providing around 186 W/m2 K. The condensation rate of water droplet fall-off time is about 1 s on the superhydrophobic surface, and 2 s for bare surface is obtained against the mass flow rate of 300 lph.

The most common cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide in the age group of 10–49 years is road traffic accidents. Other than road traffic accidents multiple other factors add to the burden of injuries which include self-harm, occupational hazards, animal attack injuries and industrial accidents. Animal attack injuries are seen all over the world. Other than a few case reports and case series, this mode of injury is highly under-reported. Hence, the global burden of this disease is unknown. Due to the rapid deforestation, the number of animal attack injuries is increasing. These injuries can be caused by wild as well as domesticated animals. The attack can be due to a direct encounter with an animal or due to road traffic accident. Bulls are ferocious animals that are used for sporting events. They are also used for farming and livestock rearing. Injuries caused by bulls can be due to direct attacks by an unprovoked animal, road traffic accidents, or sporting events. The penetrating injury caused by the bull horn has its characteristic pattern. Treatment of bull horn injuries requires a multidisciplinary team. Creating awareness and enforcing laws can help in preventing such injuries.

Paratesticular Extramedullary Hematopoiesis in Children
Authors: Kuhn Elisabetta , Runza Letterio , Di Cesare Antonio , Gianelli Umberto 
Published: January 2023

Context.—
Extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH) is an uncommon occurrence, usually associated with hematologic disorders, but it rarely presents as an isolated finding.

Objective.—
To determine the frequency, immunomorphologic features, and clinicopathologic background of EMH in orchiectomies from pediatric patients.

Design.—
All orchiectomy specimens removed from children from 2008 to 2020 in our institution were retrospectively reviewed. Biopsies and neoplasias were excluded. The EMH diagnosis was rendered when hematopoietic cell precursors were present. Immunohistochemical stainings were performed to characterize the hematopoietic components.

Results.—
Seventy-nine orchiectomies from 77 children (mean age, 5 years; range, 0–17 years) were included in our study. Forty-three patients (55.8%) underwent surgery for testicular atrophy, 30 (39.0%) for torsion, and 4 (5.2%) for intersex conditions. EMH was identified in 6 of 79 orchiectomies (7.6%), all performed for testicular torsion. All patients but one were newborns, and the remaining patient was 15 years old. No patient had evidence of a hematologic disorder. All EMH foci were in a background of reactive changes with a variable extension, either in the epididymis (4 cases) or in the deferens duct (2 cases). Immunostaining confirmed an association of myeloid (myeloperoxidase+) and erythroid precursors (E-cadherin+) in all 6 cases. One case also presented rare megakaryocytes, and one showed benign TdT+ B-cell precursors.

Conclusions.—
To our knowledge, this is the first study that demonstrates EMH as a common finding in orchiectomy samples, especially from newborns. Despite the lack of pathologic potential, it is important to recognize EMH in order to avoid misdiagnosis.
Accounting conservatism and economic conditions: Evidence from the GIPS and the UK
Authors: Pereira Cláudia , Cerqueira Antonio 
Published: January 2023

In this article we analyse whether the level of conservative accounting practice is associated with economic conditions in Greece, Ireland, Portugal, Spain (GIPS) and the UK. For that purpose, we study conditional conservatism surrounding the 2007/08 global financial crisis, using an approach that consists in examining two stages of the crisis, which we denote by the earlier stage of the crisis and the later stage of the crisis. Furthermore, we analyse the impact of the intensity of economic changes and institutional factors by comparing conservatism in the GIPS, which were more severely affected by the crisis, with the UK. The results are consistent with a conservative accounting practice in those countries over the sample period from 1998 to 2018. Besides, we find evidence of a decrease in conservative accounting in the earlier stage of the crisis and an increase in the later stage. In addition, the results suggest an incremental sensitivity of conservatism in countries that were more severely affected by financial crisis. Our findings are consistent with managers adjusting financial reporting in response to the economic environment, sometimes they appear to respond to the demand for a conservative practice from stakeholders, but other times they act as if they wanted to mislead outsiders. Therefore, this study brings some insights to the debate about the use of accounting conservatism and its relation to economic conditions.
En este artículo se analiza si el nivel de práctica contable conservadora está asociado con las condiciones económicas de Portugal, Irlanda, Grecia y España (PIGS) y el Reino Unido. Para ello, se estudia el conservadurismo condicional en torno a la crisis financiera global de 2007/08, utilizando un enfoque que consiste en examinar dos etapas de la crisis, que denotamos como la etapa anterior a la crisis y la etapa posterior a la crisis. Además, se examina el impacto de la intensidad de los cambios económicos y de los factores institucionales comparando el conservadurismo en los países PIGS, que se vieron más afectados por la crisis, con el Reino Unido. Los resultados son consistentes con una práctica contable conservadora en esos países durante el periodo de muestra (de 1998 a 2018). Además, se encuentran evidencias de una disminución de la contabilidad conservadora en la primera etapa de la crisis y un aumento en la etapa posterior. Además, los resultados sugieren una sensibilidad incremental del conservadurismo en los países que se vieron más gravemente afectados por la crisis financiera. Los resultados son coherentes con el hecho de que los gestores ajustan la información financiera en respuesta al entorno económico; a veces parecen responder a la demanda de una práctica conservadora por parte de las partes interesadas, pero otras veces actúan como si quisieran engañar a los agentes externos. Por tanto, este estudio aporta algunas ideas al debate sobre el uso del conservadurismo contable y su relación con las condiciones económicas.
Happiness
Authors: Lomas Tim 
Published: January 2023

A concise and engaging exploration of how we understand happiness.
What does it mean to feel happiness? As a state of mind, it's elusive. As a concept—despite the plethora of pop psychology books on the subject—it's poorly understood. In this volume in the MIT Press Essential Knowledge series, psychologist Tim Lomas offers a concise and engaging overview of our current understanding of happiness. Lomas explains that although the field of positive psychology, which focuses on happiness, emerged only in the last twenty-five years, interest in the meaning of happiness goes back several millennia. Drawing on a variety of disciplines, from philosophy and sociology to economics and anthropology, Lomas offers an expansive vision of what happiness means, exploring a significant range of experiential territory.
After considering such related concepts as wellbeing and flourishing, Lomas traces ideas of happiness from the ancient Buddhist notions of sukha and nirvana through Aristotle's distinction between hedonic and eudaemonic happiness to today's therapeutic and scientific approaches. He discusses current academic perspectives, looking at the breadth of happiness research across disciplines; examines the mechanics of happiness—the physiological, psychological, phenomenological, and sociocultural processes that make up happiness; explores the factors that influence happiness, both individual and social; and discusses the cultivation of happiness.
