Retention of placenta and its associated factors in Bangladeshi zebu cattle
Authors: Debnath R , Saha A , Talukder LN , Bhuiyan MMU , Bhattacharjee J 
Published: January 2023

The aim was to find out the incidence of retention of placenta in 175 zebu cattle with regard to age, body condition score (BCS), parity, and feeding system. Pretested questionnaire was used for collecting the information. The overall incidence of manually removed placenta was 10.3%. Age, body condition score and feeding system had significant effect (P<0.05) on incidence of manual removal of placenta. The effect of parity was not significant. The highest incidence of 14.3%, 16%, 11.8% and 12% was in cows over 7 years of age, 6th parity, poor BCS and stall-feeding, respectively. It is suggested that animals aged 4 to 7 years, fair body condition, and free-range grazing were less susceptible to retained placenta.

Authors: Sejuti S , Alim MA , Hossain KMM , Yasin MG , Labony SS , Anisuzzaman - , Mondal MMH 
Published: January 2023

The prevalence of snail-borne trematodes (SBTs) of cattle and their vector snails in Rajshahi district in Bangladesh were determined. A total of 380 faecal samples of cattle were collected and examined using Modified Stoll’s Ova Counting Technique. Of the smaples examined, 130 (34.2%) animals were found affected with SBTs, and the mean egg per gram of faeces (EPG) was 180.3 ± 0.8. The trematodal infections by Fasciola gigantica (1.1%), different amphistomes (32.9%), and Schistosoma spindale (0.8%) were detected among the infected cattle. The effects of age, sex, breed, and body condition of the cattle on the prevalence of SBTs were determined. The infection rate was higher in young (> 2- 4 years) cattle (46.5%), followed by calves of ≤ 2 years (35.3%), and the lowest in older (> 4 years) cattle (20%). The prevalence of trematode infections was significantly (P<0.0001) higher in females (36.5%) than in male (28.3%) cattle. The prevalence was higher in cattle with poor body condition (48.7%) than in cattle with normal body condition (24.8%). Significantly (P<0.008) higher prevalence of trematode infection was recorded in indigenous cattle (41.2%) than in cross-bred cattle (26.9%). It is suggested that SBT infection is a common problem in cattle in Rajshahi district of Bangladesh. Particular emphasis should be given to proper management and regular deworming, and sustainable control measures should be developed for the prevention of SBT infection in cattle.

La Escuela Superior de Guerra de Brasil: herencia moderna y singularidad soberanista. La geopolítica formal en Travassos, Do Couto e Silva y Meira Mattos
Authors: Delgado Castresana Mireia , Limón López Pedro 
Published: January 2023

La Escuela Superior de Guerra creada en 1949 en Brasil fue un hito en la articulación del pensamiento geopolítico brasileño y regional, no sólo a partir de la creación de conocimiento por parte de las elites militares, sino por su papel protagonista en los procesos políticos desarrollados en el Estado brasileño y en el conjunto de la región latinoamericana. En este trabajo se analizan los modelos geopolíticos elaborados por tres de los grandes pensadores del pensamiento militar moderno en Brasil, analizando el diálogo que establecen entre sus premisas ontológicas y epistemológicas –científicas, modernizadoras, militares- y el pensamiento moderno colonial portugués.
Seaweed Derived Lipids Are a Potential Anti-Inflammatory Agent: A Review
Authors: Jaworowska Agnieszka , Murtaza Aliza 
Published: January 2023

Chronic, low-grade inflammation is linked to the development of non-communicable diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular disease, obesity, insulin resistance, diabetes, and others which together contribute to more than 50% of deaths globally. Modulation of inflammatory responses may be a promising strategy, and n-3 long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 LC-PUFA) may offer a new therapeutic option in inflammatory conditions. Seaweeds are characterised by high nutritional quality and are a good source of many bioactive compounds, including n-3 LC-PUFA. This review addresses the potential anti-inflammatory properties of seaweed derived lipids, and their immunomodulating mechanisms in order to identify the possible applications of seaweed as an anti-inflammatory functional food ingredient or dietary supplement. A few studies have evaluated the anti-inflammatory activity of seaweed lipids using crude lipid extracts, lipid fractions and isolated complex lipids from several seaweeds belonging to the Ochrophyta and Rhodophyta phyla, with only three Ulva rigida, Ulva sp. and Codium tomentosum within the Chlorophyta phylum. It was reported that seaweed derived lipids suppress inducible nitric oxide synthase and cyclooxygenase-2 expression and reduce nuclear factor κB p100 and myeloid differentiation primary response 88 protein levels leading to the downregulation of the production of several pro-inflammatory cytokines and nitric oxide. Further investigations are required to unravel the complex mechanisms underlying their preventive action against chronic inflammation and their potential use as a new functional food ingredient and/or health supplement.
The Influence of Daily Temperature Fluctuation on the Efficacy of Bioinsecticides on Spotted Wing Drosophila Larvae

Published: January 2023

Global climate change is allowing the invasion of insect pests into new areas without natural competitors and/or predators. The dipteran Drosophila suzukii has invaded both the Americas and Europe, becoming a serious problem for fruit crops. Control methods for this pest are still based on the use of pesticides, but less invasive and more sustainable methods, such as biocontrol, are needed. Variations in environmental conditions can affect the efficacy of bioinsecticides influencing their behavior and physiology besides that of the target insects. In this work, we developed a system that simulates the daily temperature fluctuations (DTFs) detected in the environment, with the aim of studying the influence of temperature on biocontrol processes. We investigated the effects of DTFs on the efficacy of four bioinsecticides. Results showed that DTFs modify the efficacy of some entomopathogens while they are ineffective on others. Specifically, the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis is the most effective bioinsecticide under all conditions tested, i.e., low DTF (11–22 °C) and high DTF (17–33 °C) compared to constant temperature (25 °C). In contrast, nematodes are more sensitive to changes in temperature: Steinernema carpocapsae loses efficacy at low DTF, while Steinernema feltiae and Heterorhabditis bacteriophora are not effective in controlling the target dipteran. This work provides a basis for reviewing biological control methods against invasive species in the current context of climate change.
Willow and Herbaceous Species’ Phytoremediation Potential in Zn-Contaminated Farm Field Soil in Eastern Québec, Canada: A Greenhouse Feasibility Study

Published: January 2023

Phytoremediation shows great promise as a plant-based alternative to conventional clean-up methods that are prohibitively expensive. As part of an integrated strategy, the selection of well-adapted plant species as well as planting and management techniques could determine the success of a long-term program. Herein, we conducted an experiment under semi-controlled conditions to screen different plants species with respect to their ability to phytoremediate Zn-contaminated soil excavated from a contaminated site following a train derailment and spillage. The effect of nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) application on the plants and soil was also comprehensively evaluated, albeit we did not find its use relevant for field application. In less than 100 days, substantial Zn removal occurred in the soil zone proximal to the roots of all the tested plant species. Three perennial herbaceous species were tested, namely, Festuca arundinacea, Medicago sativa, and a commercial mix purposely designed for revegetation; they all showed strong capacity for phytostabilization at the root level but not for phytoextraction. The Zn content in the aboveground biomass of willows was much higher. Furthermore, the degree of growth, physiological measurements, and the Zn extraction yield indicated Salix purpurea ‘Fish Creek’ could perform better than Salix miyabeana, ‘SX67’, in situ. Therefore, we suggest implementing an S. purpurea—perennial herbaceous co-cropping strategy at this decade-long-abandoned contaminated site or at similar disrupted landscapes.
Estimating Ground Elevation in Coastal Dunes from High-Resolution UAV-LIDAR Point Clouds and Photogrammetry
Authors: Pinton Daniele , Canestrelli Alberto , Moon Robert , Wilkinson Benjamin 
Published: January 2023

Coastal dune environments play a critical role in protecting coastal areas from damage associated with flooding and excessive erosion. Therefore, monitoring the morphology of dunes is an important coastal management operation. Traditional ground-based survey methods are time-consuming, and data must be interpolated over large areas, thus limiting the ability to assess small-scale details. High-resolution uncrewed aerial vehicle (UAV) photogrammetry allows one to rapidly monitor coastal dune elevations at a fine scale and assess the vulnerability of coastal zones. However, photogrammetric methods are unable to map ground elevations beneath vegetation and only provide elevations for bare sand areas. This drawback is significant as vegetated areas play a key role in the development of dune morphology. To provide a complete digital terrain model for a coastal dune environment at Topsail Hill Preserve in Florida’s panhandle, we employed a UAV, equipped with a laser scanner and a high-resolution camera. Along with the UAV survey, we conducted a RTK–GNSS ground survey of 526 checkpoints within the survey area to serve as training/testing data for various machine-learning regression models to predict the ground elevation. Our results indicate that a UAV–LIDAR point cloud, coupled with a genetic algorithm provided the most accurate estimate for ground elevation (mean absolute error ± root mean square error, MAE ± RMSE = 7.64 ± 9.86 cm).
Enhanced Frequency Stability of SAW Yarn Tension Sensor by Using the Dual Differential Channel Surface Acoustic Wave Oscillator
Authors: Feng Yang , Liu Wenbo , Wang Ben 
Published: January 2023

This paper presents a 60 MHz surface acoustic wave (SAW) yarn tension sensor incorporating a novel SAW oscillator with high-frequency stability. A SAW delay line was fabricated on ST-X quartz substrate using the unbalanced-split electrode and bi-directional engraving slots. The dual differential channel delay linear acoustic surface wave oscillator is designed and implemented to test yarn tension, which can effectively remove the interference of temperature, humidity, and other peripheral factors through differential design. The yarn tension sensor using the surface acoustic wave has high-precision characteristics, and the SAW delay line oscillator is designed to ensure the test system’s stable operation. The effect of time and tension on oscillator frequency stability is studied in detail, and the single oscillator and the dual differential channel system were tested, respectively. After using the dual differential channel system, the short-term frequency stability from is reduced from 1.0163 ppm to 0.17726 ppm, the frequency accuracy of the tension sensor is improved from 134 Hz to 27 Hz, and the max frequency jump steady is reduced from 2.2395 ppm to 0.45123 ppm.

Published: January 2023

Vibrio alginolyticus is one of the major pathogens causing vibriosis to a variety of aquatic animals as well as bringing about severe food safety concerns. Nowadays, phage therapy has received increasing attention as an alternative to the antibiotics that have being limited for use in aquaculture industries. In this work, a potent bacteriophage, vB_ValM_PVA23 (PVA23), which efficiently infects pathogenic strains of V. alginolyticus, was isolated from sewage water and characterized by microbiological and genomic analyses. Based on the transmission electronic observation, the phage was characterized to be the Myoviridae family. It has a latent period of 10 min and a burst size of 203 PFUs/infected bacterium, and was stable over a broad pH range (5.0–11.0) and a wide temperature span (−80 °C to 60 °C), respectively. Genome sequencing results show that PVA23 has a 246,962-bp double-stranded DNA with a G + C content of 41.25%. The lab and plant shrimp farming trials demonstrated that phage preparation derived from PVA23 out-performed the chemical disinfectant iodine treatment in the prevention of V. alginolyticus propagation, and the phage application could rapidly yet significantly reduce the level of V. alginolyticus in the pond within 12 h, with negligible rebound observed. These results suggests that phage PVA23 has the potential to be used as an anti-V. alginolyticus agent in aquaculture industries.

Voluntades provinciales, instituciones locales: los menores de edad en la intersección. Provincia de Buenos Aires, años ‘20
Authors: De Paz Trueba Yolanda 
Published: January 2023

En la década del 20, la provincia de Buenos Aires dio muestras de llevar adelante una incipiente política de intervención sobre un sector de la minoridad. Sin embargo, los avances no alcanzaban a cubrir las necesidades crecientes de un sector de la población en aumento, en especial los menores de edad abandonados o aquellos que aun teniendo familia requerían de algún tipo de institucionalización. Quienes brindaban esa ayuda eran, en la mayoría de los casos organizaciones que no pertenecían a la órbita estatal sino que se habían formado en el seno de asociaciones laicas vinculadas a la Iglesia Católica.
Este trabajo busca (combinando el análisis de fuentes estatales con otras de carácter institucional), complejizar esas acciones analizando su puesta en práctica en un asilo de varones del centro de la provincia de Buenos Aires que en la década de 1920 amplió sus funciones, en el marco de la adaptación a demandas sociales cambiantes. Se trata en síntesis, de un estudio centrado en las acciones por la infancia pobre desde una institución particular, sin perder de vista la interacción con las políticas provinciales.

Authors: Gajos Dawid 
Published: January 2023

Koreańska Republika Ludowo-Demokratyczna jest państwem o patriarchalnym charakterze. Od trzech pokoleń rządy sprawują w niej niemal wyłącznie mężczyźni. Dopiero na początku XXI wieku władzę zaczęła tam zdobywać kobieta – siostra Kim Dzong Una – Kim Jŏ-dzŏng. Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie drogi jaką przeszła pierwsza kobieta, która znalazła się oficjalnie w najściślejszych kręgach władzy w Korei Północnej, jak i ścieżki jej kariery w polityce KRLD. Wykorzystanie metody historycznej oraz instytucjonalnej pozwoliło na wykazanie w jaki sposób Kim Jŏ-dzŏng wchodziła po kolejnych szczeblach władzy w państwie, by ostatecznie stać się drugą osobą w Korei Północnej. Stała się również pierwszą kobietą, która uzyskała realny, potwierdzony w oficjalnie sprawowanych urzędach, wpływ na politykę wewnętrzną i zagraniczną KRLD.
La donna fascista – narodowa służebnica, żona i matka
Authors: Wotlińska Anna 
Published: January 2023

The subject of this article is the attitude of Italian fascism towards women. It outlines the social roles that were announced to women in propaganda texts and to which they were supposed to submit. The author describes the position of Italian women, referring to the specific decalogues of women and families that appeared in the fascist press in the 1920s. A woman-mother was the basic and most important figure that bound the family together but also built the power of the state. Bearing children and raising them to be righteous members of the nation and submitting to the will of men were to ensure women universal respect and recognition. According to fascist ideology, reproduction was also a precondition for recognising a union as a family, a man and a woman staying together. The next part of the article is devoted to this issue. It describes the obligations imposed by fascist ideologues also on men. Both sexes were stripped of individualism, personal needs and desires in this political reproductive puzzle, albeit unevenly and with the preservation of patriarchal patterns. The state and its leader – Benito Mussolini – became a god and a source of laws.
