Obesity is one of the causes of chronic diseases, such as diabetes, hypertension, stroke, cancer, dyslipidemia, and heart disease. It is considered a financial burden on national health insurance since it drains the largest health fund. The study aimed to determine the difference in vitamin D levels in obese and non-obese health workers and analyze the factors that influence it. This was a cross-sectional study of the obese and non-obese health workers at Dr. Sardjito General Hospital, Yogyakarta. A total of 50 subjects, including 25 obese and 25 non-obese subjects were involved. Serum vitamin D levels was determined by ELISA. There was no significant difference between the obese and non-obese groups on vitamin D status (p<0.365). Vitamin D deficiency was found in 10% of subjects, whereas insufficient vitamin D levels were found in 46 and 44% of subjects, respectively. Vitamin D deficiency was more common in the obese (12%) than non-obese (8%) group. Contrarily, vitamin D insufficiency was more common in the non-obese (56%) than obese (36%) group. The serum vitamin D levels in the obese [30.08 (14.67-101.71) ng/mL] was not significantly different compare to those non-obese [28.54 (14.38-54.41) ng/mL] (p = 0.691). The multivariate analysis significantly showed that outdoor activities <30 min had a 7.061 times greater risk of having vitamin D deficiency/insufficiency compared to outdoor activities >30 min (OR 7.061; 95% CI: 1.064-46.872; p=0.043). In conclusion, there is no significant difference in vitamin D levels between the obese and non-obese groups. Vitamin D deficiency/insufficiency is more common in non-obese subjects than in obese subjects. Outdoor activity <30 min is a risk factor for vitamin D insufficiency/deficiency despite living in a tropical country with abundant sunlight throughout the year.

Albano Rosell: do separatismo catalão em Montevidéu ao federalismo e iberismo anarquista (1920-1945)
Authors: Masjuan Eduard 
Published: December 2022

A atuação do educador racionalista anarquista catalão Albano Rosell, sul-americano, pela conquista de uma Catalunha livre da Espanha durante os anos da ditadura de Primo de Rivera (1923-1930) é uma faceta pouco estudada. Rosell e um pequeno número de catalães residentes em Montevidéu propuseram a separação política e cultural da Catalunha da Espanha para conseguir um novo país europeu sem Estado e sem Exército nacional. Após esta experiência, Rosell evoluiu para o federalismo recluso e para o iberismo anarquista.
Para refletir sobre a posição anarquista frente ao autoproclamado nacionalismo republicano e revolucionário catalão em Montevidéu, Buenos Aires, Havana e Santiago do Chile, tratamos dos debates políticos e culturais que Rosell e o grupo de Montevidéu promoveram durante o período de estudo. O que nos permite mostrar através da extensa obra escrita por Rosell, como o nacionalismo catalão oficial sempre foi burguês e antioperário e por isso foi superado pelas ideias a favor de um federalista e península ibérica ibérica.

Leveraging family history data to disentangle time-varying effects on disease risk using lifecourse Mendelian randomization
Authors: Richardson Tom G , Urquijo Helena , Holmes Michael V , Smith George Davey 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
Lifecourse Mendelian randomization is a causal inference technique which harnesses genetic variants with time-varying effects to develop insight into the influence of age-dependent lifestyle factors on disease risk. Here, we apply this approach to evaluate whether childhood adiposity has a direct consequence on 8 major disease endpoints by analysing data on first-degree relatives from the UK Biobank study. Our findings suggest that, whilst childhood adiposity increases later risk of outcomes such as heart disease (odds ratio (OR) = 1.15, 95% CI = 1.07 to 1.23, P = 7.8x10− 5) and diabetes (OR = 1.43, 95% CI = 1.31 to 1.56, P = 9.4x10− 15), these findings are likely attributed to a sustained influence of adiposity for many years over the lifecourse. Likewise, we found evidence that sustained adiposity over the lifecourse increases risk of lung cancer, which was partially mediated by lifetime smoking index. In contrast, using family history data provided evidence that being overweight in childhood may have a protective effect on risk of breast cancer (OR = 0.87, 95% CI = 0.78 to 0.97, P = 0.01), corroborating findings from observational studies and large-scale genetic consortia. Large-scale family disease history data can provide a complementary source of evidence for epidemiological studies to exploit, particularly given that they are likely more robust to sources of selection bias (e.g. survival bias) compared to conventional case control studies. Leveraging these data using approaches such as lifecourse Mendelian randomization can help elucidate additional layers of evidence to dissect age-dependent effects on disease risk.

Abstract
A Gram-stain-negative, non-motile and coccoid bacterial strain, designated XHP0099T, was isolated from the coastal water of the Yellow Sea, China. Growth occurred at 20–37°C (optimum, 28°C), pH 5.0–9.0 (optimum, pH 7.0–8.0), and with 0–7.0% NaCl (optimum, 2.0–3.0%). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain XHP0099T was related to members of the genus Paracoccus and shared the highest sequence similarity with “P. siganidrum” M26 (98.2%), followed by P. alkanivorans 4-2T (97.6%) and P. alkenifer DSM 11593T (97.4%). The average nucleotide identity, amino acid identity and digital DNA–DNA hybridization values of strain XHP0099T against related members in the genus Paracoccus were below the cut-off points proposed for delineation of a novel species. The major cellular fatty acids (＞10%) were summed feature 8 (C18:1 ω7c/C18:1 ω6c), and C18:0. The major isoprenoid quinone was Q-10 and the polar lipids contained diphosphatidylglycerol (DPG), phosphatidylglycerol (PG), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylcholine (PC), aminolipid (AL) and unidentified polar lipids (L). The G+C content of the genomic DNA of strain XHP0099T was 66.0%. Further genomic analysis suggested that strain XHP0099T harbored gene clusters for formaldehyde and the XoxF-type methanol oxidation and type 1 Calvin cycle, which could confer the methylotrophy pathway. Based on the phenotypic, phylogenetic, biochemical and chemotaxonomic analysis, strain XHP0099T represents a novel species of the genus Paracoccus, for which the name Paracoccus marinaquae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is XHP0099T (=JCM 34661T=GDMCC 1.2414T=MCCC 1K05846T).

Abstract
In mutton sheep production, higher dietary energy is often used to achieve better animal performance. Whereas, changing the diet formula will affect rumen fermentation and microbiota of ruminants. In this study, we investigated the effect of dietary energy on rumen fermentation and ruminal microbiota in fattening sheep. Fifteen 2-month-old white-headed Suffolk sheep (♂) × Hu sheep (♀) crossbred lambs were randomly divided into 3 treatments: 8.67 MJ/kg (LE, n=5), 10.38MJ/kg (CON, n=5), and 12.31 MJ/kg (HE, n=5) based on the dietary energy of feeds fed. After 70 days of feeding, sheep were slaughtered, and the ruminal fluids were collected and analyzed to determine fermentation parameters, microbiota was determined using metagenomics sequencing. We found that there was no effect on the microbial cell protein (MCP) and butyric acid concentration was significantly high in the HE group. Metagenomic sequencing revealed that ACE and Chao indexes of the HE group were significantly decreased. Among the major classified taxa, 4 genera across all the kingdoms differed in relative abundance among the three dietary energy levels. Correlation analysis revealed that the relative abundances of Prevotella_brevis, Succiniclasticum_ruminis, Prevotellace-ae_bacterium, andLachnospiraceae_bacterium were significantly correlated with rumen fermentation. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis further showed high-energy diet increased lipid metabolism. The expression of the Carbohydrate Active enzymes (CAZy) gene indicated which participates in energy metabolism increased, but those which regulate plant cell wall degradation decreased in the HE group. These results suggest that a high-energy diet had limited influence on the rumen fermentation pattern. Whereas, a high-energy diet changes rumen microbiota composition which leading microbial lipid metabolism enhanced and crude fiber's metabolism capacities weakened. Our results provide scientific evidence for fattening sheep production.

A New Criteria for Determining the Best Decomposition Level and Filter in Wavelet-based Data-driven Forecasting Frameworks- Validating Using Three Case studies on The CAMELS Dataset
Authors: Behbahani Mohamadreza Mazarei , Behbahani Amin Mazarei 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
Recently, numerous papers have been published in the field of using preprocessing models (e.g. Discrete wavelet) in Data-driven Forecasting Frameworks (DDFF). There are some unresolved problems in these models like using future data, boundary affected data, and miss selection of decomposition level and wavelet filter that cause an erroneous result. However, Wavelet-based Data-driven Forecasting Framework (WDDFF) solves these problems. The first two problems could be solved using Maximal Overlap Discrete Wavelet Transform (MODWT) and a trous algorithm (AT). As the best we know, there is no absolute solution for decomposition level and wavelet filter selection. Meanwhile, as a novel investigation, we are going to use Entropy to find a solution for these problems. We are using the concept of predictability of time series using entropy for determining decomposition level and suitable filter, to develop the Maximal Overlap Discrete Wavelet-Entropy Transform (MODWET) to apply in WDDFF correctly. We will reveal the effectiveness of MODWET through three real-world case studies on the CAMELS data set. In these case studies, we will forecast the streamflow of determined stations from one month ahead to prove the effectiveness of using preprocessing models on forecasting accuracy. The proposed model is a combination of Input Variable Selection (IVS), preprocessing model, and Data-Driven Model (DDM). In conclusion, we will show that MODWET- ANN is the best model. In addition, we will realize how good entropy could find decomposition level and filter, which solves the mentioned concerns about using WDDFF in real-world hydrological forecasting problems.
A new genome of an African weakly electric fish (Campylomormyrus compressirostris, Mormyridae) indicates rapid gene family evolution in Osteoglossomorpha
Authors: Cheng Feng , Dennis Alice B. , Osuoha Josephine , Canitz Julia , Kirschbaum Frank , Tiedemann Ralph 
Published: December 2022

Abstract
Background
Teleost fishes comprise more than half of the vertebrate species. Within teleosts, most phylogenies consider the split between Osteoglossomorpha and Euteleosteomorpha/Otomorpha as basal, preceded only by the derivation of the most primitive group of teleosts, the Elopomorpha. While Osteoglossomorpha are generally species poor, the taxon contains the African weakly electric fish (Mormyroidei), which have radiated into numerous species. Within the mormyrids, the genus Campylomormyrus is mostly endemic to the Congo Basin. Campylomormyrus serves as a model to understand mechanisms of adaptive radiation and ecological speciation, especially with regard to its highly diverse species-specific electric organ discharges (EOD). Currently, there are few well-annotated genomes available for electric fish in general and mormyrids in particular. Our study aims at producing a high quality genome and to use this to examine genome evolution in relation to other teleosts. This will facilitate further understanding of the evolution of the osteoglossomorpha fish in general and of electric fish in particular.
Results
A high quality weakly electric fish (C. compressirostris) genome was produced from a single individual with a genome size of 862Mb, consisting of 1,497 contigs with an N50 of 1,399 kb and a GC-content of 43.69%. Gene predictions identified 34,492 protein-coding genes, which is a higher number than in the two other available Osteoglossomorpha genomes of Paramormyrops kingsleyae and Scleropages formosus. A CAFE5 analysis of gene family evolution comparing 33 teleost fish genomes suggests an overall faster gene family turnover rate in Osteoglossomorpha than in Otomorpha and Euteleosteomorpha. Moreover, the ratios of expanded/contracted gene family numbers in Osteoglossomorpha are significantly higher than in the other two taxa, except for species that had undergone an additional genome duplication (Cyprinus carpio and Oncorhynchus mykiss). As potassium channel proteins are hypothesized to play a key role in EOD diversity among species, we put a special focus on them, and manually curated 16 Kv1 genes. We identified a tandem duplication in the KCNA7a gene in the genome of C. compressirostris.
Conclusions
We present the fourth genome of an electric fish and the third well-annotated genome for Osteoglossomorpha, enabling us to compare gene family evolution among major teleost lineages. Osteoglossomorpha appear to exhibit rapid gene family evolutiona, with more gene family expansions than contractions. The curated Kv1 gene family showed seven gene clusters, which is more than in other analyzed fish genomes outside Osteoglossomorpha. The KCNA7a, encoding for a potassium channel central for EOD production and modulation, is tandemly duplicated which may related to the diverse EOD observed among Campylomormyrus species.
