Potential Role of Functional Foods in the Management of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron Variant
Authors: Venugopal V , deenadayalan B , Poonguzhali S , Maheshkumar K 
Published: October 2022

AbstractOmicron is a more contagious variant of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), commonly known as Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID- 19). Dietary management of COVID-19 with functional foods plays a significant role in reducing cytokine storm and the viral replication and survival. A thorough literature search was performed in electronic databases such as PubMed and EMBASE using the keywords Coronavirus, COVID-19, Omicron, functional foods, and phytonutrient. In total, 77 research articles were identified; of those, 10 papers were included after title, abstract and full text review. Most commonly used phytonutrients for the management of COVID-19 include bromelain, curcumin, quercetin, gingerol and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). These phytonutrients possessed anti-inflammatory properties, and were effective in targeting the spike proteins and docking sites of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, thereby preventing viral replication and survival. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first published review indicating the significance of functional foods in reducing the severity of the Omicron variant.
Performance evaluation of common-aperture visible and long-wave infrared imaging system based on a comprehensive resolution
Authors: Wang Qingsong , Gao Ming 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
In this article, a new method based on a comprehensive resolution is proposed to evaluate the performance of a common-aperture visible and long-wave infrared (LWIR) imaging system. The influence of the comprehensive resolution on target recognition range is analyzed. Under the condition of common-aperture and a combination of four comprehensive resolutions, the main factors affecting the ratio of target recognition range between the visible imaging system and the LWIR imaging system are discussed. Combined with the constraints of the optical system and the detector, the impact of the comprehensive resolution on the target recognition range is analyzed. The ratio of the target recognition range of the two imaging systems is modeled using the comprehensive resolution of the visible imaging system. The experimental system is built and the experimental results are acquired. The predictive results and experimental results show that when the comprehensive resolution of the visible light imaging system increases, the target recognition ranges of the visible light imaging system and the LWIR imaging system increase, as well as the ratio of the target recognition ranges of the two systems increases.
‘Do we know if we need to reduce head impact exposure?’: A mixedmethods study highlighting the varied understanding of the longterm risk and consequence of head impact exposure across all stakeholders at the highest level of rugby union
Authors: Starling Lindsay , McKay Carly , Cross Matt , Kemp Simon , Stokes Keith 
Published: October 2022

Background: One strategy to prevent and manage concussion is to reduce head impacts, both those resulting in concussion and those that do not. Because objective data on the frequency and intensity of head impacts in rugby union (rugby) are sparse, stakeholders resort to individual perceptions to guide contact training. It is unknown whether there is a level of contact training that is protective in preparing elite players for contact during matches.
Objectives: This study aimed to describe how contact training is managed in elite male rugby, and how staff and players perceive contact training load and head impact load.
Methods: This was a sequential explanatory mixed-methods study. Forty-four directors of rugby, defence coaches, medical and strength/conditioning staff and 23 players across all 13 English Premiership Rugby Union clubs and the National senior team participated in semi-structured focus groups and completed two bespoke questionnaires.
Results: The study identified the varied understanding of what constitutes head impact exposure across all stakeholder groups, resulting in different interpretations and a range of management strategies. The findings suggest that elite clubsconduct low levels of contact training; however, participants believe that some exposure is required to prepare players andthat efforts to reduce head impact exposure must allow for individualised contact training prescription.
Conclusion: There is a need for objective data, possibly from instrumented mouthguards to identify activities with a high risk for head impact and possible unintended consequences of reduced exposure to these activities. As data on head impact exposure develop, this must be accompanied with knowledge exchange within the rugby community.
Influence of source radiation patterns on globally observed short-period magnitude estimates (mb)
Authors: Schweitzer Johannes , Kværna Tormod 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
We investigated the effect of the radiation pattern on station and network magnitude estimates (mb) by using centroid-moment-tensor (CMT) solutions published by the seismological group at Harvard University. The magnitude data used in this study were P amplitudes provided by the Prototype International Data Center (PIDC). When relating the station magnitude residuals to the calculated relative radiation factors, we found a small but clearly observable dependency. By compensating for this effect after inverting for station corrections and new event magnitudes, we found that the variance of the station magnitude residuals was reduced by about 2.6%. In parallel, we estimated a set of mean station corrections with and without corrections for the radiation pattern. Similarly, we recomputed the average network magnitudes (mb), which in some cases differed by up to 0.15 magnitude units from the uncorrected average network mb values. In conclusion, we found that the effect of the source radiation pattern on the amplitudes used for mb estimation on a global scale is relatively small compared to effects from other factors. Only about 24% of the predicted radiation pattern signal can be found in the observed data. However, when best possible mb values are needed (e.g., to investigate magnitude relations or station corrections for specific ray paths), compensating for the radiation pattern will help to reduce the scatter.
Source parameters of the 1992 Melilla (Spain,MW= 4.8), 1994 Alhoceima (Morocco,MW= 5.8), and 1994 Mascara (Algeria,MW= 5.7) earthquakes and seismotectonic implications
Authors: Bezzeghoud M. , Buforn E. 
Published: October 2022

AbstractSource mechanisms of the Melilla, Alhoceima, and Mascara earthquakes, including fault-plane solutions, waveform modeling, and spectral analysis, are presented. Strike-slip solutions have been obtained for the Melilla and Alhoceima earthquakes and reverse faulting for Mascara. Teleseismic P-wave inversion, using broadband data, show a complex mechanism for the Alhoceima earthquake formed by two subevents at very shallow depth (7 and 8 km) and scalar seismic moments of 1.1 × 10e + 17 N-m and 4.8 × 10e + 17 N-m. The Mascara earthquake was a single event, with a shallow depth (4.5 km) and a scalar seismic moment of 3.3 × 10e + 17 N-m. Results of the Alhoceima, Melilla, and Mascara earthquakes, together with 53 focal mechanisms in the region, show a regional stress regime that corresponds to horizontal compression in a NW-SE direction, associated with the convergence between Eurasia and Africa. A change of the stress regime in the plate boundary of the Ibero-Maghrebian region has been found.
A stochastic method for investigating site effects by means of a borehole array—SHand Love waves
Authors: Kinoshita Shigeo 
Published: October 2022

AbstractA stochastic method for investigating site effects by means of borehole array observation is proposed. This method is based on a stochastic time-series model that is derived from Haskell's matrix procedure for a layered medium and is applicable to transverse-component recordings simultaneously obtained on the ground surface and at a depth. The time-series model not only accounts for the amplitude but also for the phase characteristics of the recordings. By applying this method to actual downhole array recordings, the following aspects of site effects can be investigated: (1) An estimation of the wave transfer function for SH waves, (2) the separation of upcoming and downgoing waves on a borehole seismogram at a depth, that is, an estimation of purely incident waves, and (3) the enhancement of fundamental mode Love waves on a surface seismogram are examined by applying this method to two borehole array recordings obtained at the Fuchu observatory in Japan. A noteworthy point is that these aspects of site effects are examined using this method without any knowledge of the velocity structure beneath the site.

Рассматриваются процесс обучения русскому языку как иностранному и особенности его усвоения студентами с генеалогически разными родными языками. Отмечается, что все студенты на начальном этапе допускают ошибки универсальные (общие, не зависящие от родного языка) и специфические, которые являются маркерами, позволяющими провести идентификацию студента как носителя какого-либо языка. Представлена типология ошибок, которые регулярно возникают при обучении иностранных студентов с родным испанским языком русскому как иностранному на начальном этапе. Используется понятие лингвистической девиации, под которой мы понимаем совокупность отклонений фонетического, лексического, грамматического свойств от норм изучаемого языка в результате дивергенции языковых систем на разных уровнях в сознании формирующегося билингва. Анализируются виды таких ошибок и способы их преодоления.
This article is a part of a large work that focuses on processing of teaching Russian as a foreign language and the peculiarities of its assimilation by students with genealogically different mother tongues. The works are united by a common title indicating a specific language, which is considered in each article. We proceed from the assumption that at the initial stage all students make mistakes that are universal and specific. This work is devoted to the study of the typology of errors that are regular for foreign students with a native Spanish language at the initial stage of studying Russian language. The phenomenon of interference becomes very important and high frequency in the study of Russian as a foreign language, it is a cause of a number of failures occurring when the codes of one language switches to another language codes. The types of such errors and ways to overcome them are analyzed in The article. Knowledge of the typology of consecutive and regular deviations will help to avoid such a negative phenomenon as interference.

Процесс конструирования представлений о киберпространстве в дискурсе СМИ исследуется с помощью метода фреймовой семантики, что позволяет выявить взаимодействие языковых значений и когнитивных структур. В структуре медиафрейма «киберпространство» выделяются облигаторные и факультативные компоненты, определяющие принципы структурирования знания о новом феномене в языковых значениях и способы активации фоновых знаний русской лингвокультуры. Корпусный анализ текстов русскоязычных СМИ применяется для анализа заполнения слотов фрейма конкретными языковыми единицами с выделением основных тематических кластеров.
The method of frame semantics is applied to study the construction of “Cyberspace” meaning in the Russian-language media discourse. Frame semantics allows for identifying the interaction of actual linguistic meanings and underlying cognitive structures. The structure of the “Cyberspace” media frame includes obligatory and optional components that determine the principles for structuring knowledge about a new social phenomenon and ways to activate background knowledge of the Russian linguistic culture. Corpus analysis of Russian-language media texts is used to examine the filling of frame slots with specific language means considering the main thematic clusters.

Abstract
An eco-friendly electron beam irradiation (EBI) technology was used to assess the effect of EBI on the different development stages of Callosobruchus maculatus (F.) and Bactrocera zonata (Saunders). No adults emerged after 3-d-old eggs of C. maculatus were irradiated with 304.8 Gy of EBI, and no adults emerged from the F1 generation of larvae and pupae irradiated with 103.6 Gy. The adult stage of C. maculatus was the most tolerant of EBI, with a high dose (414.3 Gy) irradiation of the adult stage resulting in complete prevention of the F1 generation adult emergence. Large-scale tests confirmed that 414.3 Gy was an effective dose for the phytosanitary and security treatment for C. maculatus. An EBI dose of 414.3 Gy prevented B. zonata egg hatching. EBI doses of 304.8, 414.3, and 653.5 Gy prevented the development of first, second, and third larval instars to pupation, respectively. Using the criterion of adult emergence from the F1 generation, targeting the third larval stage, considered the most tolerant stage to EBI, a dose of 304.8 Gy was effective for quarantine and security treatment of B. zonata.

Published: October 2022

Abstract
The tomato leafminer, Tuta absoluta Meyrick (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae), is a worldwide invasive pest of tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum L.) that reached West Africa in 2010. Synthetic insecticides remain the most widely used method of control, but several biological alternatives are being developed. In this work, we evaluated nine biopesticides available on the West African market for their ability to control T. absoluta. Using standard leaf or egg dip bioassay methodology, we compared both the ovicidal and the larvicidal activity of these biopesticides at various concentrations of active ingredients. We found that, for each biopesticide tested, the larval lethal concentrations (LC) (8.2–41.14 ml/L) to be lower than those necessary to stop egg hatching (26.7–409.7 ml/L). Two products (Bangr-Kièta [BK]; Bangr-Pougo [BP], formulated in powder), both based on Azadirachta indica A. Jussieu fruit and leaf extracts and Khaya senegalensis (Desrousseaux) A. Jussieu bark extract, showed high efficacy in reducing egg hatchability at their recommended doses, with a calculated control failure likelihood (CFL) reaching 0%. These two products, together with a third one (BP) based on Mitracarpus scaber Zuccarini and K. senegalensis extracts, also showed the strongest larvicidal effects (CFL = 0%). All other tested biological insecticides showed significant efficiency but were found to be less effective at their recommended doses. Because the leafminer has developed resistance to most of the synthetic insecticide available on the market, we recommend that West African tomato producers are encouraged to use the most efficient biological products available.
Catches of Longhorn Beetles (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) in Traps Baited with Generic Pine Beetle Lure Blend Unaffected by Ips Pheromones Lanierone and cis-Verbenol in Georgia
Authors: Miller Daniel R. 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
A generic trap lure blend of host volatiles (ethanol + α-pinene) and Ips bark beetle pheromones (ipsenol + ipsdienol) is effective for detecting numerous species of longhorn beetles (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) in pine forests of North America. In 2021, the potential benefits of adding two other Ips pheromones (lanierone and cis-verbenol) to traps baited with the pine beetle lure blend were determined in north Georgia. Lanierone and cis-verbenol had no effect on catches of the six cerambycid species captured in the study: Acanthocinus nodosus (F.), A. obsoletus (LeConte), Astylopsis arcuata (LeConte), Monochamus titillator (F.), Neoclytus acuminatus (F.), and Xylotrechus sagittatus Germar. Similarly, neither compound had any effect on catches of some common ambrosia and bark beetles and snout weevils nor on catches of some associated predators, all commonly caught in traps baited with the pine beetle lure blend. In contrast, catches of Ips avulsus Eichhoff and I. grandicollis (Eichhoff) were enhanced by the addition of lanierone, whereas those of I. calligraphus (Germar) and Hylastes tenuis Eichhoff (Curculionidae) were enhanced by the addition of cis-verbenol. The data do not support the addition of lanierone or cis-verbenol to the blend of ethanol + α-pinene + ipsenol + ipsdienol as a trap lure blend for the broad detection of pine longhorn beetles in north Georgia.
The Portrayal of Abbasid Rulers in Chronography of Theophanes the Confessor
Authors: Cecota Błażej 
Published: October 2022

This text supplements another, a paper presented a decade ago on the portrayal of Umayyad rulers in Chronography of Theophanes the Confessor (B. Cecota, Islam, the Arabs and Umayyad Rulers according to Theophanes the Confessor’s Chronography, “Studia Ceranea” 2, 2012, p. 97–111). I am limiting myself here to discussing only those source remarks which directly concern one of the Abbasid Caliphs, or alternatively, to narratives structured in such a manner that they implied certain traits of a ruler. General remarks concerning the portrayal of the entire dynasty have been included, both in the main text and in the footnotes, only where this was necessary for the understanding of the context in which the Caliphs’ descriptions appear.

Objectives. To characterize severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) mitigation strategies, testing, and cases across county jails in the Southeastern United States, examining variability by jail characteristics. Methods. We administered a 1-time telephone survey to personnel of 254 jails in Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina between October 2020 and May 2021. Results. Some SARS-CoV-2 mitigation strategies (e.g., screening at intake, isolation and masking for symptomatic persons) were commonly reported (≥ 75% of jails). Other measures, such as masking regardless of symptoms (52%) and screening at release (26%), were less common and varied by jail state or population size. Overall, 41% of jails reported no SARS-CoV-2 testing in the past 30 days. Jails with testing (59%) tested a median of 6 per 100 incarcerated persons; of those jails, one third reported 1 or more cases of positive tests. Although most jails detected no cases, in the 20% of all jails with 1 or more case in the past 30 days, 1 in 5 tests was positive. Conclusions. There was low testing coverage and variable implementation of SARS-CoV-2 mitigation strategies in Southeastern US jails during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Objectives. To examine the impact of the California Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s (Cal/OSHA’s) 2017 workplace violence (WPV) prevention in health care safety standard on nonfatal violent injuries among health care workers (HCWs). Methods. We accessed estimated counts of WPV from the survey of occupational injuries and illness from 2011 to 2019 specific to HCWs. We used the Current Population Survey estimates of HCWs to create rates per 10 000. We conducted a longitudinal panel analysis and a comparative interrupted time-series analysis to examine the change in incidence and in rates associated with California’s new standard. Results. Adoption of the 2017 safety standard led to an additional 3.48 reported WPV injuries per 10 000 HCWs in California, or an additional 473 injuries. Sensitivity analyses suggest other injuries did not change in the same period. Conclusions. It appears that the Cal/OSHA standard increased reporting of WPV injuries among HCWs in the first year of its adoption compared with the United States. Mandating reporting of all WPV incidents in the health care setting may be a means to ensure a more complete understanding of this public health problem.
