Perkembangan usaha pada jamur pada saat ini sudah tersebar luas di seluruh Indonesia. Namun sistem pemasaran jamur tiram putih ini masih bermasalah. Jamur tiram putih segar tidak dapat bertahan lama maka pemasarannya keluar daerah mengalami masalah. Seterusnya kebanyakan petani masih mengandalkan pengumpul untuk menjual produksi mereka. Tujuan dari penelitian ini 1) ntuk mengetahui saluran pemasaran jamur tiram di Kecamata Payakumbuh utara, dan 2) untuk mengetahui besarnya marjin pemasaran dan farmer share. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode deskriptif kuantitatif, jumlah responden 30 orang di Kecamatan Payakumbuh Utara, Kota Payakumbuh. Hasil penelitian menemukan: 1) Saluran pemasara jamur tiram memiliki 3 mekanisme yaitu: Petani ke konsumen, petani ke pedagang pengumpul lanjut ke konsumen, terakhir petani ke pedagang pengumpul terus ke pedagang pengecer lanjut ke konsumen. Saluran pemasaran jamur ini petani ada yang menjual hasil pertanian nya ke konsumen langsung dan ada yang menjual nya melalui pedagang pengumpul dan pedagang pengecer. 2) Margin pemasaran jamur tiram di kecamatan payakumbuh utara adalah Rp. 3.000/kg. Artinya terdapat perbedaan selisih harga yang tidah terlalu jauh dari petani dengan konsumen akhir. Besar kecilnya nilai farmer share ini dipengaruhi oleh harga jual di tingkat petani dan harga beli di tingkat konsumen. Rata–rata farmer share di saluran ini adalah 82% (efisien).Kata Kunci : Jamur Tiram, Metode Deskriptif Kuantitatif
Understanding Contemporary Populism Through the Latin American Experience
Authors: Cossu Elena 
Published: May 2022

This paper discusses how the Latin American experience can help us understand contemporary populism and its management. This topic starts from the assumption that structural change and social contexts help us explain the evolution of populism in the same way they helped explain the evolution of violence and management. To do so, we look at the state of the literature on populism, its relation to the Latin American experience, the evolution of the approach to populism, and the conclusions we can draw from these different perspectives. We conclude that contemporary populism is also limited in the same way the contextual approach to Latin American populism was limited. This also helps us understand why we still do not have a shared definition of populism. Overall, we lack the balance between generalisable and local definitions to help leaders manage the contemporary violence of populism.
Controlled Formation of Oil-Free Soft Biomaterials Using All-Aqueous Fluid Systems
Authors: Jeyhani Morteza 
Published: May 2022

<p>In this dissertation, I developed microfabrication techniques to produce oil-free soft materials using all-aqueous fluid systems, for biological and biomedical applications. To generate soft- materials in conventional platforms, typically, organic solvents are used, which are not compatible with biological environments and thus require extensive washing steps to remove the toxic phase. I first demonstrated a technique to fabricate non-spherical hydrogels based on electrohydrodynamic atomization. In this study, I investigated the effect of experimental parameter changes on the morphology of the fabricated particles. Moreover, carboxylated magnetic beads were used to functionalize the particles while the particle shape is preserved. These particles can be used for magnetic separation schemes. I used breast cancer cells (BT-474) to examine the potential of these particles for cell encapsulation. Aqueous-two phase systems (ATPS) are used as an organic solvent free two-phase system to generate single, double, and triple emulsions. However, most ATPSs have very low interfacial tensions, so conventional microfluidic methods cannot fabricate ATPS emulsions with a reasonable throughput, and in most cases, an external component to perturb the flow is needed to induce droplet formation. In the second half of this dissertation, I have designed and fabricated lithography-based microfluidic devices in which micro-conduits are embedded coaxially inside iv the microchannel to isolate the disperse phases from the channel walls, thereby circumventing the surface wetting problems that prevent successful droplet formation. This method benefits from the flexibility of choosing the disperse and continuous phases independently and permits the switching of the phase order to facilitate the formation of aqueous emulsions, regardless of their physical properties such as hydrophobicity. The configuration of this microfluidics platform also enables the focusing of two or three concentric threads of ATPS without channel-wetting problems.</p>

Growth Behavior and Transcriptome Profile Analysis of Proteus mirabilis Strain Under Long- versus Short-Term Simulated Microgravity Environment
Authors: Zhang Bin , Bai Po , Wang Dapeng 
Published: May 2022

Abstract
Spaceflight missions affect the behavior of microbes that are inevitably introduced into space environments and may impact astronauts’ health. Current studies have mainly focused on the biological characteristics and molecular mechanisms of microbes after short-term or long-term spaceflight, but few have compared the impact of various lengths of spaceflight missions on the characteristics of microbes. Researchers generally agree that microgravity (MG) is the most critical factor influencing microbial physiology in space capsules during flight missions. This study compared the growth behavior and transcriptome profile of Proteus mirabilis cells exposed to long-term simulated microgravity (SMG) with those exposed to short-term SMG. The results showed that long-term SMG decreased the growth rate, depressed biofilm formation ability, and affected several transcriptomic profiles, including stress response, membrane transportation, metal ion transportation, biological adhesion, carbohydrate metabolism, and lipid metabolism in contrast to short-term SMG. This study improved the understanding of long-term versus short-term SMG effects on P. mirabilis behavior and provided relevant references for analyzing the influence of P. mirabilis on astronaut health during spaceflights.
Nuclear βII-Tubulin and its Possible Utility in Cancer Diagnosis, Prognosis and Treatment
Authors: Ludueña Richard F. , Walss-Bass Consuelo , Portyanko Anna , Guo Jiayan , Yeh I-Tien 
Published: May 2022

Microtubules are organelles that usually occur only in the cytosol.Walss et al. (1999)discovered the βII isotype of tubulin, complexed withα, in the nuclei of certain cultured cells, in non-microtubule form. When fluorescently labeled tubulins were microinjected into the cells, onlyαβII appeared in the nucleus, and only after one cycle of nuclear disassembly and reassembly. It appeared as ifαβII does not cross the nuclear envelope but is trapped in the nucleus by the re-forming nuclear envelope in whose reassemblyβII may be involved.βII is present in the cytoplasm and nuclei of many tumor cells. With some exceptions, normal tissues that expressed βII rarely had βII in their nuclei. It is possible that βII is involved in nuclear reassembly and then disappears from the nucleus.Ruksha et al. (2019)observed that patients whose colon cancer cells in the invasive front showed no βII had a median survival of about 5.5 years, which was more than halved if they had cytosolicβII and further lessened if they had nuclearβII, suggesting that the presence and location ofβII in biopsies could be a useful prognostic indicator and also thatβII may be involved in cancer progression.Yeh and Ludueña. (2004)observed that many tumors were surrounded by non-cancerous cells exhibiting cytosolic and nuclearβII, suggesting a signaling pathway that causesβII to be synthesized in nearby cells and localized to their nuclei.βII could be useful in cancer diagnosis, since the presence ofβII in non-cancerous cells could indicate a nearby tumor. Investigation of this pathway might reveal novel targets for chemotherapy. Another possibility would be to combineαβII with CRISPR-Cas9. This complex would likely enter the nucleus of a cancer cell and, if guided to the appropriate gene, might destroy the cancer cell or make it less aggressive; possible targets will be discussed here. The possibilities raised here about the utility ofβII in cancer diagnosis, prognosis, biology and therapy may repay further investigation.

ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to evaluate the early and mid-term results after the frozen elephant trunk (FET) procedure for the treatment of complex arch and proximal descending aortic disease in a single-center institution.MethodsFrom April 2015 to July 2021, 72 patients (25 women, 60.4 ± 10.3 years) underwent Thoraflex™ Hybrid implantation at our institution. The indications were thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) (n = 16, 22.2%), post-dissection aneurysm (n = 21, 29.2%), and acute aortic dissection (AAD) (n = 35, 48.6%). Antegrade cerebral perfusion under moderate hypothermia (28°C) was employed in all cases. Eighteen patients (25%) have already been operated due to heart or aortic disease.ResultsOverall in-hospital mortality was 12.5% (9 patients). Rates of permanent neurological dysfunction and spinal cord injury were 9.7 and 5.5%, respectively. The in-hospital mortality rate among patients operated on AAD, TAA, and post-dissection aneurysm were 8.6, 6.2, and 23.8%, respectively. At a mean follow-up of 26 ± 20 months, mortality was 9.7%. Furthermore, 23 patients (31.9%) required a subsequent procedure in distal aorta: endovascular stentgraft extension in 19 patients (26.4%) and open aortic surgery in 4 patients (5.5%). The mid-term survival of patients with type A aortic dissection was 97%.ConclusionsOur experience with the Thoraflex Hybrid prosthesis demonstrates its surgical applicability for different types of aortic pathologies with promising outcomes during early and midterm follow-up. Our technique and perioperative management lead to comparable or even superior neurological outcomes and mortality in urgent cases considering other high-volume centers.

Published: May 2022

This paper presents a detailed description of the sedimentary characteristics and architecture model of the tidal-dominated estuary reservoir in the Lower Cretaceous McMurray formation. Based on a thorough study of the core data, 13 lithofacies were recognized. The lithofacies associations were divided into nine types of architecture elements, that is channel, salt marsh, fluvial point bar, tidal point bar, mud flat, mixed flat, sand flat, tidal bar and offshore. Through the combination of high resolution seismic data and well data, the architecture model was established. The boundary surfaces of each architecture elements are depicted and the logging characteristics is concluded. The cross-section is constructed to reveal the superimposition model of different architectural elements with the seismic profiles. The plane and vertical distribution of architectural elements are revealed and the sedimentary model is constructed. In the longitudinal section of estuary, the architecture elements is fluvial deposits (channel, fluvial point bar, and salt marsh), tidal flat (mud flat, mixed flat, and sand flat), tidal bar, tidal flat and offshore from land to sea. In the cross section, tidal bar, sand flat, mixed flat, mud flat, tidal point bar and salt marsh are distributed successively from the center to the sides. Tidal bars and sand flats are the best reservoirs in terms of physical properties. We focus on the analysis of their architecture and summarize their stacking patterns. We propose tidal bars as compounds are lateral accretion. Tidal bar has high-angle continued lateral accretion, with a dip angle of 6–12°. Sand flat also has lateral-migrated characteristics, but their dip angle is 2–6° which is smaller than tidal bars. As a result, the dimension and stack of a single tidal bar and sand flat are quantified. The tidal bar was lateral stacking or vertical stacking with lateral-migrated or forward-migrated sand flat and existed vertical and lateral erosion-filling phenomenon. Tidal bars have width of 100–550 m and length of 800–2,400 m, and sand flats are 300–2,500 m long. Tidal bars and sand flats made up the best reservoirs. The study provides some insights for future research of estuarine sedimentary patterns and reservoir architecture.

BackgroundThe prevalence of diabetes mellitus remains high in China, and more cardiovascular and cerebrovascular adverse events due to diabetes mellitus are likely to occur in the future.ObjectiveTo analyze the gap between the current pharmacotherapy management and the guidelines for inpatients with type 2 diabetes mellitus from the perspective of pharmacists so as to provide a reference for optimal pharmacotherapy management methods and models for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.MethodsThe study was a cross-sectional observational study. The study was conducted by investigating and analyzing the use of glucose-lowering drugs, adjustment of blood pressure management strategy, lipid management, weight management, and application of antiplatelet drugs in type 2 diabetes inpatients.ResultsA total of 1086 patients with type 2 diabetes were included. Metformin, glycosidase inhibitors, and basal insulin were the most used among type 2 diabetes inpatients. The use of SGLT-2, GLP-1 RAs, DPP-4, and metformin all showed significant increase. SGLT-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i) showed the fastest increase from 2020 to 2021 (14.5% vs. 39.6%); However, the application rate of SGLT-2i was low among patients with combined ASCVD, renal insufficiency, and diabetic nephropathy (46.4%, 40.9%, and 45.8% respectively). For patients with substandard blood pressure at admission, the average rate of intervention by endocrinologists for adjusting the antihypertensive regimen during hospitalization was 55.6%, and the application rate of ACEI/ARB drugs reached 64.4%. The application rate of statins among patients with type 2 diabetes was still relatively high, at 78.8%. However, the overall intervention rate for patients with suboptimal LDL-c was only 24.1%. The application rate of antiplatelet agents for patients with ASCVD was 77.6%, which was higher than that for patients without ASCVD.ConclusionThere is still a gap between the practice of medication treatment management of Chinese inpatients with type 2 diabetes and the guidelines, especially in the application of GLP-1RAs and SGLT-2i in patients with concomitant ASCVD, diabetic nephropathy, and renal insufficiency. Meanwhile, physicians and pharmacists should pay more attention on achieving blood pressure and LDL-c standards in type 2 diabetic patients and provide timely interventions.

Slaughterhouse plants, especially meat and poultry products (MPPs), generate significant quantities of wastewater during the slaughtering process and the cleaning of machinery. The handling and final disposal of wastewater from the slaughterhouse is a public and environmental health issue due to its pollution potential. The monitoring of three full-scale buffalo meat-based abattoir effluent treatment plants (ETPs) to remove organic matter and nutrients was conducted at three separate sites in India. Rotary and static screens, an equalization tank, a dissolved air flotation (DAF) system, aeration tanks, and clarifiers were the component unit operations/processes of the wastewater treatment systems. All the treatment plants were operating at an average flow rate of 254 m3/d Meem Agro (designed capacity 500 m3/d); 427 m3/d Al Noor (designed capacity 500 m3/d), and 353 m3/d International Agro Foods (IAF) plant (designed capacity 750 m3/d) for the treatment of slaughterhouse wastewater. The Al Noor and Meem Agro’s ETP consisted of a DAF unit working at the surface-loading rates of 5.7 and 1.48 m3/m2 h, respectively, applied during the analysis to the DAF system, resulting in 46.5 and 56.8% efficiencies of O&amp;G and SS removal. The ETP of Al Noor and Meem Agro and IAF was loaded at an organic loading rate of 276 kg COD/day, 746 kg COD/day, and 629 kg COD/day, respectively. Performance of ETPs showed that the efficiency of total COD, total BOD, and TSS removal was 97, 98, and 99%; 94, 94, and 93%, and 95, 98, and 99% for Al Noor, Meem Agro, and IAF plants, respectively. The treatment plants’ efficiencies in all three plants for the removal of organic matter surpassed the effluent discharge level (as per Indian standards). Still, it is concluded that the ETPs need to be upgraded by incorporating the advanced wastewater treatment methods for the removal of nutrient concentration from treated effluents.
