Influence of a Controlled Atmosphere, Temperature, and Ripeness on Bacterial Soft Rot of Tomatoes1
Authors: Parsons C. S. , Spalding D. H. 
Published: August 2022

Abstract
Four cultivars of tomatoes inoculated with soft rot bacteria and held 6 days at 55°F kept better in a controlled atmosphere (CA) with 3% O2 and 5% CO2 than in air. Red, or ripe, fruits developed less decay than unripe fruits. Decay lesions were smaller on fruits stored in CA than on those stored in air, but CA did not control decay. The lesions were also smaller on red tomatoes than on pink, breaking or green tomatoes. With inoculated tomatoes (cv. Homestead), red fruit kept better than green at 45°, 55°, and 65°F. The size of decay lesions was directly related to temp. At 55°F inoculated tomatoes kept better in CA than in air. At 45° or 65°F, they kept equally well in CA and air.
Quality of ‘Lula’ Avocados Stored in Controlled Atmospheres with or without Ethylene1
Authors: Hatton T. T. , Reeder William F. 
Published: August 2022

Abstract
Storage of ‘Lula’ avocados in controlled atmosphere (CA) of 2% oxygen (O2) and 10% carbon dioxide (CO2) at 50°F for 30, 45, and 60 days resulted in more acceptable fruit than storage in air at this temp for similar durations. The removal of ethylene from the storage chambers increased the percentage of acceptable fruits, especially in the lots stored 60 days. CA-stored avocados, when placed in air at 70°F, softened more slowly than similar fruits that had been stored in air, and those stored without ethylene softened more slowly than those stored with ethylene. Anthracnose decay was the primary factor affecting acceptability, especially during the softening period at 70°F
The Variable Flowering Response of Salvia splendens Sello to Daylength1
Authors: Weiler T. C. 
Published: August 2022

Abstract
The late flowering, tall Salvia cultivars flowered faster, were shorter, and had fewer nodes per plant under a short daylength, while the early flowering, short cultivars responded only slightly to daylength differences. Early and late, short and tall cultivars have perhaps been derived as selections from a pool of variable photoperiodic sensitivities.
The Effect of Succinic Acid-2,2-Dimethylhydrazide (SADH) and Other Growth Regulating Chemicals on Peach Fruit Maturation1
Authors: Byers Ross E. , Emerson Frank H. , Dostal Herbert C. 
Published: August 2022

Abstract
Succinic-acid-2,2-dimethylhydrazide (SADH) applications hastened the maturity of peach fruit when trees were sprayed during fruit growth stages I, II and III. The greatest hastening of fruit maturity was evident with high concn of SADH (4000 and 8000 ppm) applied between the mid-point and the end of stage I. The optimum concn during stage II for hastening maturity was 1000 ppm. Applications of SADH in stage III hastened fruit color development but had little effect on other indices of maturation. Five of 6 SADH analogues were effective in hastening fruit maturation when applied in the first half of stage II. The growth retardants Amo 1618 and £CC did not hasten peach fruit maturation.

Published: August 2022

Abstract
We evaluate the controlling factors of hydrothermal wolframite and scheelite precipitation in the quartz vein-type Jiaoxi tungsten deposit situated in the western part of the Lhasa terrane (Tibet, China) using texture, major and trace element mineral geochemistry, and sulfur stable isotope geochemistry. Pyrite and chalcopyrite that are intergrown with Fe-enriched wolframite and siderite, have distinct in situ S isotope compositions (δ34SV-CDT) of −31.38 to +1.77‰, and +2.07 to +2.30‰, respectively. Major and trace element contents and in situ S isotope compositions of pyrite and chalcopyrite indicate that the hydrothermal evolution involved fluid-fluid mixing and greisenization. We report evidence for an early magmatic fluid, which is characterized by the enrichment of W, Mn, Zr, Ti, Sc, and Sn and depletion of Fe. This magmatic fluid was diluted by meteoric water and interacted with biotite monzogranite porphyry to leach Fe, Mg, and Zn into the system to form wolframites with variable Fe/(Fe+Mn) ratios ranging between 0.06–0.84. The late Fe-enriched magmatic fluid released from the muscovite granite mixed with meteoric water that leached minor Fe and S from shale to form late shale-hosted wolframite with a Fe/(Fe+Mn) mass ratio of &gt;0.75 and coeval siderite and sulfides. This study highlights that multiple Fe sources were present in the system, including muscovite granite-released Fe through fluid exsolution, biotite monzogranite porphyry-released Fe during greisenization, and minor Fe released from the shale as a result of meteoric water leaching.

Authors: Erliza Setia , Septianingsih Puteri Anugrah 
Published: August 2022

<em>The policy in learning has been changed by the government since the Covid 19 cases decreased significantly in Indonesia. Therefore, the implementation of learning in this current era, especially in university level, is conducted limitedly in face to face learning mode known as Pembelajaran Tatap Muka (PTM) terbatas and online learning mode, named Pembelajaran Jarak Jauh (PJJ). These mixed modes of learning are acclaimed as hybrid learning. This transition of learning potentially raises various perceptions among the undergraduate students. Hence, this study aims at investigating the undergraduate students’ perception of hybrid learning system in the pandemic era. The participants of this study were 45 English department undergraduate students at State University of Malang. They were 38 females students and 7 males students from the 2nd, 6th and 8th semesters. This study was carried out through survey research design. Henceforth, the data of this study was gathered by spreading a closed-ended questionnaire via Google Form. The findings revealed that the undergraduate students showed positive perceptions regarding hybrid learning in pedagogical, social, and technical aspects. Notwithstanding, the negative perceptions were found in the technical aspects relating to students’ concentration in deeper learning and students’ difficulties in learning English during hybrid learning. Regardless of the positive and negative perceptions, according to the findings, hybrid learning can be categorized as the effective learning approach as well as the learning solution in this current pandemic era.</em>
A nova hermenêutica constitucional e a discricionariedade das decisões judiciais na concretização dos direitos fundamentais
Authors: Rodrigues Kálita de Castro , De Souza Paulo Henrique Salmazo , Nanaka Humberto Massahiro 
Published: August 2022

A decadência do legalismo do positivismo jurídico ocasionou o advento do pós-positivismo jurídico, propondo força normativa a esses princípios, dando azo ao surgimento do neoconstitucionalismo, ante a necessidade de garantir efetiva concretização dos direitos fundamentais. Diante disso, origina-se uma Nova Hermenêutica constitucional. Os referidos fenômenos, por conseguinte, empoderam o poder Judiciário e intensificam a discricionariedade judicial. Assim, o objetivo da presente investigação é analisar como a utilização da Nova Hermenêutica pode ocasionar decisões judiciais excessivamente discricionárias. Para tanto, utilizando-se do método dedutivo, por meio de um levantamento bibliográfico, realizou-se revisão da literatura doutrinária, perscrutando a historicidade do fenômeno jurídico mencionado até o advento do neoconstitucionalismo e o surgimento de uma Nova Hermenêutica Constitucional dentro deste novo paradigma jusfilosófico. Em seguida, analisa-se a máxima da proporcionalidade de Robert Alexy como um dos métodos interpretativos oriundos do neoconstitucionalismo, demonstrando-se posteriormente que a utilização discricionária da hermenêutica principialista é propiciada por uma falha na aplicação da teoria da ponderação, a qual proporciona ao julgador o livre arbítrio de julgar e também como resultado de uma má aplicação da máxima da proporcionalidade pelo Judiciário brasileiro. Por fim, constata-se que a Teoria de Dworkin e a Teoria Crítica de Lênio Streck, com esteio na Hermenêutica Filosófica e na integridade de Ronald Dworkin, mostram-se como possíveis soluções ao problema que se apresenta, com intuito de superação da discricionariedade na concretização dos direitos fundamentais.

Local leadership development and WASH system strengthening: insights from Cambodia
Authors: Nhim Tum , Mcloughlin Claire 
Published: August 2022

Abstract
To accelerate progress towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goal on clean water and sanitation, the focus of WASH programming in developing countries has shifted from a traditional infrastructure approach to a more systems-based approach. Greater emphasis on a systems approach has also drawn attention to the significant role played by local leadership in developing sustainable WASH systems. Building on the evidence of the effectiveness of leaders trained through the Civic Champions Program, an innovative leadership development program in Cambodia, this article examines leaders' characteristics and explores how participating in the program affected their capacity, skills, and perceptions of leadership. Crucially, it seeks to understand the extent to which participants in the Civic Champions Program differ from comparable local leaders along these dimensions. By combining survey data with qualitative analysis, the paper identifies how localization enhances the effectiveness of leaders in promoting sanitation, including working through and strengthening pre-existing institutional arrangements and adapting promotion strategies to different audiences. In this way, the article demonstrates how non-prescriptive programs that tap into the legitimizing potential of local leaders may contribute to addressing sanitation challenges and ultimately to WASH system strengthening.
A multi-criteria approach of assessing groundwater potential, recharge and flow in the transboundary Tuli Karoo Basin
Authors: Tinonetsana Primrose C. , Gumindoga Webster , Rwasoka Donald T. 
Published: August 2022

Abstract
Quantitative estimates of amount of groundwater resources are required in the transboundary Tuli Karoo Basin to better manage and promote sustainable conjunctive use of the aquifer. Unfortunately, such important data and information are lacking. The aim of this study was to map groundwater potential zones and model groundwater recharge as well as groundwater flow in the Tuli Karoo Basin (12,164 km2) using geospatial techniques. To delineate groundwater potential zones, nine thematic maps of groundwater conditioning factors were computed and weighted using Saaty's Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). To validate the groundwater potential map, a Kruskal–Wallis test was performed. Groundwater recharge and groundwater flow direction were estimated in a coupled Geographic Information System (GIS) and modelling environment using the soil–water–balance model (SWB) and British Geological Survey (BGS) groundwater tool, respectively. Results for groundwater potential mapping showed that the area is dominated by high ground water potential which covers about 57.8% (6,915.1 km2) of the basin. The Kruskal–Wallis test showed that the median values of the borehole yields vary significantly between the different groundwater potential zone classes (P-value &lt;0.0001). Estimated groundwater recharge using SWB model showed that the maximum annual potential recharge for the Tuli Karoo Basin was 13.2 mm/year for the 10-year period from 2010 to 2020. Results from the BGS tool for groundwater flow show that the dominant groundwater flow direction is southeast. The results showed that there is no link between groundwater flow direction and surface water flow direction. This study is relevant in water development policy, water-related development aid, community planning and technical decision making for hydrogeologists, catchment managers, water planners and non-specialists alike.

Published: August 2022

Abstract:Covid-19 may be associated with various neurological disorders, including dysautono-mia, a dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system (ANS). In Covid-19, hypoxia, immuno-inflammatory abnormality, and deregulation of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) may increase sympathetic discharge with dysautonomia development. Direct SARS-CoV-2 cytopathic effects and associated inflammatory reaction may lead to neuroinflammation, affecting different parts of the central nervous system (CNS), including the autonomic center in the hypothalamus, causing dysau-tonomia. High circulating AngII, hypoxia, oxidative stress, high pro-inflammatory cytokines, and emotional stress can also provoke autonomic deregulation and high sympathetic outflow with the development of the sympathetic storm. During SARS-CoV-2 infection with neuro-invasion, GABA-ergic neurons and nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) are inhibited in the hypothalam-ic pre-sympathetic neurons leading to sympathetic storm and dysautonomia. Different therapeutic modalities are applied to treat SARS-CoV-2 infection, like antiviral and anti-inflammatory drugs. Ivermectin (IVM) is a robust repurposed drug widely used to prevent and manage mild-moderate Covid-19. IVM activates both GABA-ergic neurons and nAChRs to mitigate SARS-CoV-2 infec-tion-induced dysautonomia. Therefore, in this brief report, we try to identify the potential role of IVM in managing Covid-19-induced dysautonomia.
Fiber Intake and Vegan Lifestyle Behaviour on Blood Glucose Control in
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients: A Case-Control Study
Authors: Rachmah Qonita , Pavitasari Adisty , Farapti Farapti , Kalpana Chinnappan A. 
Published: August 2022

Aim:
The study aims to determine the relationship between blood glucose level control
with a vegetarian diet and vegan lifestyle behavior in patients with T2DM.

Background:
Diabetes prevalence escalates each year. Nutritional therapy is one of its management,
by choosing a suitable diet to maintain nutrient intake.

Methods:
This was a case-control study including 46 patients with T2DM divided into 24 people
for the case group and 22 people for the control group selected using purposive sampling method.
Data was obtained using a general questionnaire; food intake with the SQFFQ; the 8-item Morisky
Scale questionnaire, to assess medication adherence; the IPAQ, to assess physical activity. Blood
sugar measurements were observed by measuring the respondents' fasting blood sugar in the last
six months. The data was then analyzed using Chi-square statistical test and logistic regression.

Results:
The results indicate a relationship between a vegetarian diet and a vegan lifestyle behavior
that control blood sugar levels in patients with T2DM (P = 0.004). Diabetic patients on a nonvegetarian
diet had a six times greater risk of having uncontrolled blood sugar (OR = 6.476). A
significant relationship was found between a vegetarian diet and fasting blood sugar control based
on bivariate analysis. In multivariate analysis, fiber intake was most significant to blood glucose
control (OR=18.824; 95% CI 2.795-126.795).

Conclusions:
Vegetarian diet affects blood sugar control in T2DM patients. The type of nutritional
intake needs to be more considered rather than the vegetarian diet in general, so that nutritional
therapy in diabetics can be started by increasing fiber intake.
Direct Reprogramming in Bone and Joint Degenerative Diseases: Applications,
Obstacles and Directions
Authors: Shi Kesi , Li Fangcai , Tao Yiqing , Chen Qixin 
Published: August 2022

Abstract:
With a booming aging population worldwide, bone and joint degenerative diseases have gradually
become a major public health focus, attracting extensive scientific attention. However, the effective
treatments of these degenerative diseases have been confined to traditional medications and surgical interventions,
which easily lead to the possibility of drug abuse or loss of physiological function to varying
degrees. Recently, given that the development of reprogramming has overcome shackles in the field of
degenerative diseases, direct reprogramming would provide a new concept to accelerate progress in the
therapy of bone and joint degenerative diseases. The process of direct reprogramming would directly
induce ordinary somatic cells to the desired targeted cells without passing through pluripotent cell states.
In this review, we summarize some direct reprogramming of cells that has been attempted for the repair of
common bone and joint degenerative diseases, such as osteoarthritis, osteoporosis-related fracture and
intervertebral disc degeneration. However, it is inevitable that some obstacles, such as accurate transcription
factors, an appropriate extracellular microenvironment and efficient delivery carriers in vivo, need to
be resolved. In addition, developmental and promising directions associated with direct reprogramming
have attracted public attention. Investigation of the regulation of the transient genome, metabolic conversion
and cellular skeleton would provide superior potential candidates for the revolution of direct reprogramming.
The aim of direct reprogramming is to directly provide target cells for cell therapy and even
tissue reconstruction in bone and joint degenerative diseases. Moreover, the development of direct reprogramming
have potential to achieve repair and even reconstruct in situ, which would be breakthrough
effect for the repair of bone and joint degenerative diseases. The advance of direct reprogramming has
opened numerous opportunities for new therapeutic strategies in regenerative medicine.
The Unethical Use of Paracetamol As a Food Tenderizer in Four Selected
African Countries: A Major Public Health Concern?

Published: August 2022

Abstract:
Paracetamol poisoning is the commonest cause of acute liver injury. Therefore, the
unethical use of paracetamol as a food tenderizer poses a threat to human health. Although this is a
common practice in Ghana, Uganda, Nigeria, and Kenya, there are few or no scientific records on
the use of paracetamol as a food tenderizer and its deleterious effects, thus making it difficult to
regulate this practice. This review aims to fully collate and present a systematic overview of the
literature on the use of paracetamol as a food tenderizer in these countries, the potentially harmful
effects posed by the practice, and measures in place to curb the situation. Additionally, this review
aims to reveal the scientific gaps and areas requiring more research, thus providing a reference for
further research to regulate this unscrupulous practice. From our extensive review of the literature,
the high cost of fuel used in cooking and longer cooking times are the main reasons for the inappropriate
use of paracetamol as a food tenderizer. Also, this review concludes that little has been
done to create public awareness of this unethical practice. Furthermore, few ways to monitor, control
and regulate this practice have been proposed.
Accessibility of Virtual Primary Care for Adults With Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Qualitative Study
Authors: Selick Avra , Durbin Janet , Hamdani Yani , Rayner Jennifer , Lunsky Yona 
Published: August 2022

BackgroundThe COVID-19 pandemic has led to an unprecedented increase in the delivery of virtual primary care. Adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDDs) have complex health care needs, and little is known about the value and appropriateness of virtual care for this patient population.ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to explore the accessibility of virtual primary care for patients with IDDs during the pandemic.MethodsWe conducted semistructured interviews with 38 participants in Ontario, Canada between March and November 2021. A maximum variation sampling strategy was used to achieve a diverse sample including 11 adults with IDDs, 13 family caregivers, 5 IDD support staff members, and 9 primary care physicians. An iterative mixed inductive and deductive thematic analysis approach was used to code the data and synthesize higher-level themes. The analysis was informed by the Levesque Patient-Centered Access to Health Care Framework.ResultsWe identified themes related to 4 of 5 access-to-care dimensions that highlighted both the benefits and challenges of virtual care for adults with IDDs. The benefits included saving time spent traveling and waiting; avoiding anxiety and challenging behavior for patients who struggle to attend in-person visits; allowing caregivers who live far away from their loved ones to participate; reducing illness transmission; and allowing health care providers to see patients in their home environments. The challenges included lack of access to necessary technology, lack of comfort or skill using technology, and lack of nonverbal communication; difficulty engaging and establishing rapport; patient exclusion from the health care encounter; and concerns about privacy and confidentiality. An overarching theme was that “one size does not fit all,” and the accessibility of virtual care was dependent on the interaction between the following 5 categories of factors: patient characteristics, patient context, caregiver characteristics, service context, and reason for a particular primary care visit. Though virtual care was not always appropriate, in some cases, it dramatically improved patients’ abilities to access necessary health care.ConclusionsThis study suggests that a flexible patient-centered system including multiple delivery modalities is needed to ensure all patients have access to primary care. Implementing this system will require improved virtual care platforms, access to technology for patients and caregivers, training for primary care providers, and appropriately aligned primary care funding models.
