Abstract
Over the past decade, rest-frame color–color diagrams have become popular tools for selecting quiescent galaxies at high redshift, breaking the color degeneracy between quiescent and dust-reddened star-forming galaxies. In this work, we study one such color–color selection tool—the rest-frame U − V versus V − J diagram—by employing mock observations of cosmological galaxy formation simulations. In particular, we conduct numerical experiments assessing both trends in galaxy properties in UVJ space and the color–color evolution of massive galaxies as they quench at redshifts z ∼ 1–2. We find that our models broadly reproduce the observed UVJ diagram at z = 1–2, including (for the first time in a cosmological simulation) reproducing the population of extremely dust-reddened galaxies in the top right of the UVJ diagram. However, our models primarily populate this region with low-mass galaxies and do not produce as clear a bimodality between star-forming and quiescent galaxies as is seen in observations. The former issue is due to an excess of dust in low-mass galaxies and relatively gray attenuation curves in high-mass galaxies, while the latter is due to the overpopulation of the green valley in simba. When investigating the time evolution of galaxies on the UVJ diagram, we find that the quenching pathway on the UVJ diagram is independent of the quenching timescale, and instead dependent primarily on the average specific star formation rate in the 1 Gyr prior to the onset of quenching. Our results support the interpretation of different quenching pathways as corresponding to the divergent evolution of post-starburst and green valley galaxies.

Abstract
Type I X-ray bursts (XRBs) are powered by thermonuclear burning on proton-rich unstable nuclides. The construction of burst models with accurate knowledge of nuclear physics is required to properly interpret burst observations. Numerous studies that have investigated the sensitivities of burst models to nuclear inputs have commonly extracted the strength of the NiCu cycle in the rp process, determined by the 59Cu(p,α)56Ni and 59Cu(p,γ)60Zn thermonuclear reaction rates, as critical in the determination of reaction flow in the burst. In this study, the strength of the cycle at the XRB temperature range was estimated based on published experimental data. The nuclear properties of the compound nucleus 60Zn were evaluated for the 59Cu(p,α)56Ni and 59Cu(p,γ)60Zn reaction rate calculations. Monte Carlo rate calculations were conducted to include the large uncertainties of nuclear properties in the calculations. In the current work, a weak NiCu cycle is expected, whereas the rates adopted by the previous studies suggest a strong NiCu cycle. Model simulations were performed with the new rates to assess the impact on Type I XRBs. The results show that the estimated cycle strength does not strongly influence the model predictions of the burst light curve or synthesized abundances.

Published: April 2022

Background: The use of contraceptives in reproductive women is still a problem today. The association between contraceptive use and parity and pregnancy intention amongs legally married reproductive women has never been studied
Objectives: To determine the relationship between parity and pregnancy intention with contraceptive use among legally married women.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with the involvement of 262 legally-married reproductive women, aged 15-49 years, in Bantul District, Indonesia. Socio-demographic data including age, education, income, parity, pregnancy intentions, and use of contraceptives were collected using a structured questionnaire by trained enumerators. Chi-square test was used to test the association between socio-demographic data and parity and pregnancy intention, while simple logistic regression models were used to examine the relationship between contraceptive use and parity and pregnancy intention. Data analysis was performed using statistical software by SPSS.
Results: Thirty-eight point five per cent of women of reproductive age who have ≥ 3 children and 16.5% of women of reproductive age who do not want to have children do not use contraception. Parity in women of childbearing age was not related to contraceptives (OR=2.58; 95%:0.67-1.76). Women of reproductive age who had intention of getting pregnant were 61% less likely (OR= 0.39; 95%: 0.37-0.74) to use contraceptives than those who did not have intention of getting pregnant.
Conclusions: The pregnancy intention is associated with a low contraceptive use in reproductive-age women. Thus, it is necessary to educate women in the reproductive age, their partners and family regarding the importance of birth spacing.
You are what you eat: on the diet of the Garden Dormouse

Published: April 2022

The Garden Dormouse is considered the most carnivorous species among Glirids. However, this information is based on small sample sizes. In order to develop conservation measures for this declining species, understanding its feeding ecology is crucial. In this context, we studied the diet of the Garden Dormouse in Germany using microscopic analyses of 1,000 faeces collected in different habitats over 3 years. We also examined 100 stomachs from fresh carcasses.
More than 90 % of all faeces contained food of animal origin, mainly arthropods, also annelids and molluscs, but rarely vertebrates. It was possible to identify most food items of animal origin to Order level, in some cases even the species was determined. Almost all faecal samples contained plant material, mainly vegetative parts of plants (74.5 %) but also generative parts (25.5 %). Fruits like raspberries, blueberries or blackberries play a role as food sources in late summer. Surprisingly, seeds are of secondary importance. Results from stomach analysis show a higher proportion of annelids and molluscs, but otherwise confirm the data from faecal samples.
Our results confirm that the Garden Dormouse is a generalist omnivore. It preys on a wide range of animals of different taxonomic groups, also many different plant species and parts. Due to the high proportion of food of animal origin, Garden Dormice are on a higher trophic level compared to other European dormouse species. They are, therefore, vulnerable to losses of arthropod biomass and sensitive to pesticide accumulation.
The contribution of dormice monitoring to the assessment of the conservation status of species in Latvia in accordance with IUCN criteria

Published: April 2022

In Latvia, four dormouse species have been recorded. In 2016 an annual monitoring of the Hazel Dormouse (Muscardinus avellanarius) and Forest Dormouse (Dryomys nitedula) was commenced within the national biodiversity monitoring programme to obtain data that would allow assessmen of the conservation status of those species and their habitats.
The nestbox method was used for the surveys, as it is equally suitable for collecting data on all four species of dormice. Since 2016, 133 temporary study plots with 5–15 nest-boxes each, were established all over the country to record species presence. Sevenadditional permanent study plots collected data on population dynamics, each consisting of at least 50 nestboxes placed within a grid system at 50 m intervals.
No Garden Dormice (Eliomys quercinus) were recorded, supporting the presumption that this species has vanished in Latvia. A new location for Edible Dormouse (Glis glis) has been discovered. The Forest Dormouse is found exclusively in a small area near the Latvia-Belarus border, but Hazel Dormice found in Latvia are probably are part of a metapopulation located to the south. No overlapping of distribution areas of species was found.
The previous assessment of dormouse species, according to outdated IUCN criteria, was done 20 years ago. Re-assessment according to current IUCN criteria, and using monitoring data, is now carried out within the recently commenced LIFE FOR SPECIES project (2021–2024). Preliminary assessments indicate that each dormouse species will be classified in different categories - rangingfrom Least Concern to Regionally Extinct.
Was everything better in the good old days? Declining body mass in the Garden Dormouse (Eliomys quercinus)
Authors: Erhardt Stefanie , Förschler Marc , Fietz Joanna 
Published: April 2022

Garden Dormouse (Eliomys quercinus) populations have shown a drastic decline over the last 20-30 years, the reasons for this decline are still unknown. In wild animals, body mass is a good indicator of fitness and survival probability, especially in hibernating species like dormice. Fat accumulation before the onset of hibernation and juvenile growth are crucial to survive the following winter. We conducted a capture-mark-recapture study in the Black Forest (south-western Germany) between 2018 and 2021 and compared the body mass of captured Garden Dormice with data collected between 2003 and 2005. Furthermore, we investigated the dietary spectrum of this species by faecal analyses.
The results show that adult Garden Dormice nowadays have a significantly lower body mass (difference 11 ± 2.8 g) before the onset of hibernation than two decades ago. Furthermore, juveniles showed a significantly lower body mass gain in the years 2018-2021 compared to juveniles in 2003-2005. Dietary analyses have revealed that insects represent the main food resource for juvenile Garden Dormice and also in adults during pre-hibernation fattening.
This study shows, that the body mass of the Garden Dormice in the Black Forest has decreased over the last two decades, which could reduce their reproductive success and their survival rate, especially during hibernation. A reason for this body mass reduction could be the severe decline of insects leading to an insufficient availability of the key food resource of this species. In particular, reproductive females might not be able to cover their investment during gestation and lactation.
Trials of Edible Dormouse (Glis glis) population reduction in a British woodland
Authors: Trout Roger , Grimsey Margaret , Faggetter Sam , Hanlon Beth 
Published: April 2022

In the UK the Edible Dormouse is a non-native pest occurring in c.1000 sq.km of the Chilterns area, west of London, but it is spreading. It causes damage to biota in woodlands and is also increasingly present within buildings. Licenced humane culling (killing) is allowed in the UK and it is illegal to release them if captured alive. Poisoning is illegal. Several thousand are culled in buildings annually.
The results of capture trials of adult Glis within our research woodland in 2010, 2019 and in 2020 are reported. From 40 nestboxes, 126 individual dormice were removed over 10 continuous days in July 2010 and released on the nearest adjacent tree (&gt;80% of all adults recorded there in that year). In 2019, 72 catching devices were added to 26 established boxes in a 12ha. semi-isolated triangle of woodland. In 10 days 169 were culled. Five weeks later, 68 were found (not culled), indicating 20/ha overall and a maximum cull of 72%. Since 2019 was a non-breeding year (when many long-lived adults do not appear in our trapping record) we hypothesised that some old Edible Dormice not seen in 2019 might be captured in 2020. In 2020 two 5-day trapping periods were undertaken. In early July 160 were culled and another 110 four weeks later. We captured 36 more adults later; in total representing 26.5/ha. In 2021 monitoring revealed a minimum of 63 adult Glis. The capture data, movements, cost effectiveness and implications for control are discussed.
Number and length of whiskers in dormice
Authors: Famira-Parcsetich Eva Marie , Meinig Holger , Büchner Sven , Lang Johannes 
Published: April 2022

Whiskers (vibrissae) are slender, curved and tapered hairs present in most mammals, which transmit vibrotactile information. In contrast to pelage hair, whiskers are longer and thicker and they possess highly innervated follicles. So called ‘whisking’, a symmetrical, cyclic movement of whiskers can be observed in some tactile specialists. It is used to scan the environment especially during locomotion and foraging. Animals showing the ability of whisking are mainly small, nocturnal and arboreal species like dormice. However, nearly everything we know about whiskers and whisking derives from just a handful of species, including laboratory rats and mice. Until now, information on whiskers and whisking in dormice has been scarce. We describe for the first time the number, length and arrangement of whiskers in the Garden Dormouse, the Edible Dormouse and the Hazel Dormouse.
We counted and measured macro- and micro-vibrissae of five cadavers of the three species and calculated median values for each species. Anatomical studies on whiskers provide data for comparative studies between different species. Moreover, knowledge about whiskers and whisker-use can guide us in designing enriched enclosures for captive mammals. This is especially useful for small, nocturnal species that use whiskers for orientation; including a range of textures and climbing frames in their enclosures is important.
Ecology and biology of the Roach’s Mouse-tailed Dormouse (Myomimus roachi, Bate 1937)
Authors: Nedyalkov Nedko , Raykov Ivailo , Hesse Lisa , Staneva Anna 
Published: April 2022

The Roach’s Mouse-tailed Dormouse (Myomimus roachi, Bate 1937) is endemic to the Western Palearctic (occurring in SE Bulgaria, Turkish and Greek Thrace, and western Anatolia) and is one of the less known mammals within the region. There is no information about its biology and ecology in the wild. In the course of the past 3 years (2019-2021), we conducted intensive research on a small population situated in southeast Bulgaria (Sakar mountain). The population was regularly monitored during the active time of the species. To study its ecology and biology we used a combination of nest boxes, live traps and camera traps. During this period, we collected 259 records of sex, age, and weight. Those bigger than 10 g. were microchipped.
The active period for the Roach’s Mouse-tailed Dormouse lasts between April and September. Males emerged first from hibernation at the end of April (24th of April - the earliest registration). During this short active period, the dormouse breeds only once, the litter size being between 5-9 young. The first young appeared at the end of June. We observed a summer dormancy (estivation); the adult males became less active and went in the estivation first. The last active dormice were observed in the first ten days of September.
Here we also present data about the population numbers and dynamics, age, and sex structure of Roach’s Mouse-tailed Dormouse in the study area.

Published: April 2022

Cette étude porte sur l’évolution de la collaboration entre diverses organisations impliquées dans la mise en œuvre conjointe d’un programme fondé sur les données probantes de soutien à la parentalité : le programme Triple P - Pratiques Parentales Positives. Cette évolution est étudiée sur une période de deux ans dans deux territoires socio-sanitaires québécois. L’échantillon est composé de gestionnaires, d’intervenants et de spécialistes de l’encadrement clinique provenant de 22 organisations différentes. Les 112 participants ont répondu à la Mesure d’intégration des services lors de la phase de pré-implantation du programme à l’automne 2014 (T1) et deux ans plus tard (T2). Cet instrument quantifie les niveaux de collaboration actuelle et souhaitée entre les organisations et permet le calcul de plusieurs indicateurs de collaboration. Les résultats de l’étude indiquent que la collaboration actuelle s’est améliorée dans les deux territoires d’implantation entre le T1 et le T2, tandis que la réciprocité de la collaboration, ainsi que collaboration souhaitée sont demeurées stable. Ainsi, l’écart entre la collaboration actuelle et souhaitée s’est significativement amenuisé. Ces résultats offrent une rétroaction aux partenaires qui sont toujours actifs et impliqués dans le programme Triple P. Ils pourront aussi informer toute future implantation de programmes misant sur la collaboration interorganisationnelle.

Published: April 2022

Background:
Since the beginning of the coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, concerns raised by the growing number of deaths worldwide. Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and extrapulmonary complications can correlate with prognosis in COVID-19 patients. This study evaluated the association of systemic complications with mortality in severely affected COVID-19 patients.

Materials and Methods:
This retrospective study was done on 51 intensive care unit (ICU)-admitted COVID-19 adult patients who were admitted to the ICU ward of Khorshid hospital, affiliated with Isfahan University of Medical Sciences. Only the patients who had a definite hospitalization outcome (dead vs. survivors) were included in the study. Daily clinical and paraclinical records were used to diagnose in-hospital complications in these patients.

Results:
The sample was comprised of 37 males (72.5%) and 14 females (27.4%). The median age of patients was 63 years (Min: 20, Max: 84), with the mortality rate of 47.1%. In total, 70.6% of patients had at least one coexisting disorder. Chronic kidney disease was associated with the worse outcome (29.16% of dead patients against 3.70 of survived ones). Mechanical ventilation was used in 58.8% of patients. Patients who had received invasive ventilation were more likely to die (87.50% of dead patients against 7.40 of survivors), Complications including sepsis and secondary infections (odds ratio: 8.05, confidence interval: 2.11–30.63) was the strongest predictors of mortality.

Conclusion:
Complications including sepsis and secondary infections can increase the risk of death in ICU-admitted COVID-19 patients. Therefore, it is substantial that the physicians consider preventing or controlling these complications.

Published: April 2022

Background:
Few studies have studied burnout among dental students worldwide, and no such study is available from Saudi Arabia. In addition, an Arabic version of the Maslach Burnout Inventory-Student Survey (MBI-SS) has not yet been validated for use among students.

Objectives:
This study aimed to translate and validate an Arabic version of the MBI-SS questionnaire and to examine the psychometric properties of burnout among dental college students at a university in Saudi Arabia.

Materials and Methods:
This cross-sectional questionnaire study included all dental students at King Khalid University, Saudi Arabia, and was conducted between December 2019 and January 2020. After the MBI-SS questionnaire was translated, its face validity was determined and the test–retest reliability was assessed. Confirmatory factor analysis and reliability analysis were performed following the full-scale study to validate the Arabic MBI-SS.

Results:
A total of 433 dental students responded in the full-scale study (mean age: 21.9 ± 1.6 years). Emotional exhaustion was present in 32.3% (95% confidence interval: 28%–36.9%), cynicism in 33.7% (29.3%–38.4%), and poor academic efficacy in 34.2% (29.8%–38.9%) of the dental students. Emotional exhaustion and cynicism were significantly associated with academic level, a history of medication due to academic stress, and thoughts of quitting the course (for all, P < 0.05). The reliability of MBI-SS was found to be adequate for all three subscales: Emotional exhaustion, Cronbach's α = 0.827; cynicism, α = 0.855; academic efficacy, α = 0.704.

Conclusions:
All three subscales of burnout were highly prevalent in the study cohort. The Arabic version of the MBI-SS inventory was shown to be a valid and reliable tool for assessing the psychometric properties of burnout among dental students, and its use may aid in identifying burnout in the early stages.
