Myiagra galeata buruensis hartert

description: Myiagra galeata buruensis Hartert
 Myiagra galeata buruensis Hartert, 1903a: 9 (Kayali, Buru).
 Now Myiagra galeata buruensis Hartert, 1903. See White and Bruce, 1986: 364, and del Hoyo et al., 2006: 316.
 HOLOTYPE: AMNH 653495, collected at Kajeli (5 Kayali), 03.25S, 127.07E (Times Atlas), Buru Island, Moluccas, Indonesia, in October 1898, by J.M. Dumas (no. 2391). From the Rothschild Collection.
 COMMENTS: Hartert cited Dumas’ unique field number of the holotype in his original description. He did not say how many specimens he examined, but specimens collected at Kajeli by Dumas in October 1898 and by Doherty in March 1897 had been reported on by Hartert (1900c) and were available to him. Kühn also collected on Buru in February 1902, and Rothschild recorded in his partial list of purchases and exchanges having received on 23 June 1902 skins collected by Kühn at Fogi (in February 1902). Those specimens would have also been available to Hartert when he described buruensis. Paratypes are AMNH 653496– 653510. In his list of types in the Rothschild Collection, Hartert (1920: 500) listed the collector of this type as Alfred Everett. Before his death in June 1898 (Anonymous, 1898: 606), Everett had arranged for Dumas, his field assistant, to collect on Buru (Hartert, 1900c: 226) and had supplied him with field labels bearing Everett’s name.

 Myiagra rubecula ringwoodi Mathews, 1912a: 321 (Victoria).
 Now Myiagra rubecula rubecula (Latham, 1801). See Watson et al., 1986c: 518, Schodde and Mason, 1999: 509–511, and Dickinson, 2003: 503.
HOLOTYPE: AMNH 652919, adult male, collected at Ringwood, 37.51S, 145.13E (Times Atlas), Victoria, Australia, on 12 December 1908, by Frank E. Howe. From the Mathews Collection (no. 9451) via the Rothschild Collection.
 COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description. The number ‘‘488’’ that appears on the Mathews Collection label refers to the number of this species in Mathews (1908a). It bears both Mathews and Rothschild type labels and, unusually, it is marked ‘‘Type’’ in Mathews’ catalog. I did not find other Ringwood specimens in AMNH and was unable to document when Mathews acquired other Victorian specimens collected before the date of publication of the name. Mathews (1913a: 187) specified the type locality of ringwoodi as the collecting locality of his holotype.

description: Reliable, secure and verifiable data sharing and exchange over the Internet has become a very important need, especially in the face of privacy regulations that have been enacted by governments. Sensitive data must be well managed when there is collaboration between individuals and organizations. This thesis investigates some collaboration models and systems; identifies several security and privacy issues in sharing sensitive data within a collaborative system; and proposes a Web-based and Web service-oriented approach to enable collaboration over the Internet while protecting and enabling the sharing of sensitive data. The proposed solution takes advantage of both service oriented architecture (SOA) and Web service, combining multiple access control strategies to share and protect sensitive data within a secure, flexible and scalable collaborative environment. The proposed framework is illustrated in the context of a collaborative online medical consultation system with sensitive data sharing. The collaborative online medical consultation system is developed with SOA, which integrated several collaboration Web services and security Web services.

description: Myiagra rubecula yorki Mathews
 Myiagra rubecula yorki Mathews, 1912a: 321 (Cape York).
 Now Myiagra rubecula yorki Mathews, 1912. See Schodde and Mason, 1999: 509–511.
HOLOTYPE: AMNH 653017, adult male, collected on Cape York [Chester River, see below], Queensland, Australia, on 9 July 1898, by Albert S. Meek (no. 1900). From the Mathews Collection (no. 1826) via the Rothschild Collection.
 COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description. In addition to Meek’s field label, the specimen bears Mathews and Rothschild type labels and a yellow ‘‘Figured’’ label, indicating that it was illustrated in Mathews (1921b: pl. 405, upper fig., opp. p. 43, text p. 44). In the text, the figured male with the above data is described and confirmed as the type of yorki; both the specimen and its illustration have black lores.
Paratypes, all collected by Meek on Cape York in 1898, are: AMNH 653014 (Meek no. 2030), adult male with black lores, 27 July; AMNH 653020 (1835), adult female with face showing a dusky wash, 21 June; and AMNH 653023 (2011), adult female (see below), 23 July.
 Schodde and Mason (1999: 511) discussed yorki and considered it probably a migrant from a population that breeds farther south, naming the resident race okyri. Paratypes AMNH 653014 and 653020 agree with their diagnosis of yorki, but AMNH 653023 differs in having no dusky wash on the face and a small bill. It, in fact, may be a specimen of okyri. All were collected in a month when southern migrants augment local populations on Cape York Peninsula. Other specimens in AMNH from the Rothschild Collection, but never in Mathews’ Collection, were collected by Meek on the same expedition. All appear to be specimens of yorki.
Parker (1966) traced Meek’s collecting localities on Cape York Peninsula and found that in June–August 1898 his collectors were based at the Chester River (13.42S, 143.33E); thus, that is the type locality of names based on Meek’s Cape York Peninsula specimens.

description: Background. To date there has been relatively little published about how research priorities are set, and even less about methods by which decision-makers can be engaged in defining a relevant and appropriate research agenda. We report on a recent effort in British Columbia to have researchers and decision-makers jointly establish an agenda for future research into questions of resource allocation. Methods The researchers enlisted decision-maker partners from each of British Columbia's six health authorities. Three forums were held, at which researchers and decision-makers from various levels in the health authorities considered possible research areas related to three key focus areas: (1) generation and use of decision criteria and measurement of 'benefit' against such criteria; (2) identification of so-called 'disinvestment' opportunities; and (3) evaluation of the effectiveness of priority setting procedures. Detailed notes were taken from each forum and synthesized into a set of qualitative themes. Results Forum participants suggested that future research into healthcare priority setting would benefit from studies that were longitudinal, comparative, and/or interdisciplinary. As well, participants identified two broad theme areas in which specific research projects were deemed desirable. First, future research might usefully consider how formal priority setting and resource allocation projects are situated within a larger organizational and political context. Second, additional research efforts should be devoted to better understanding and improving the actual implementation of priority setting frameworks, particularly with respect to issues of change management and the resolution of impediments to action on recommendations for resource allocation. Conclusion We were able to validate the importance of initial areas posed to the group and observed emergence of additional concerns and directions of critical importance to these decision-makers at this time. It is likely that the results are broadly applicable to other healthcare contexts. The implementation of this research agenda in British Columbia will depend upon the ability of the researchers and decision-makers to develop particular projects that fit within the constraints of existing funding opportunities. The process of engagement itself had benefits in terms of connecting decision-makers with their peers and sparking increased interest in the use and refinement of priority setting frameworks.

description: We compared the effects of different exercise modes on cardiorespiratory fitness and muscular strength as well as the rate of strength development in individuals with T2DM. 251 participants in the DARE trial were randomly allocated to aerobic training (A), resistance training (R), combined training (A+R) or controls. V˙O2peak, workload and treadmill time were determined following maximal exercise testing at 0 and 6 months. Muscular strength was measured as the 8 RM on the leg press, bench press and seated row. The rate of strength development was measured as monthly workload increments (month 1-6) on 11 strength exercises. V˙O2peak improved by 1.73 and 1.93 mLO2/kg/min with A and A+R respectively compared to C (p<0.05). Strength improvements were significant following A+R and R on the leg press (A+R:48%, R:65%) bench press (A+R:38%, R:57%) and seated row (A+R:33%; R:41%)(p<0.05. There was a clear trend towards slowing in strength development in R and A+R over time. In brief, A+R leads to similar fitness improvements compared to A and R alone. Although strength development had a tendency to level off over time, it is important to consider that reductions in hemoglobin A1C occurred up to 6 months with R and were even greater with A+R.

 Myiagra rubecula melvillensis Mathews, 1912c: 41 (Melville Island, Northern Territory).
 Now Myiagra rubecula concinna Gould, 1848. See Watson et al., 1986c: 519, Schodde and Mason, 1999: 509–511, and Schodde and Dickinson, 2005.
HOLOTYPE: AMNH 653060, adult male, collected at Coopers Camp, Apsley Strait, 11.35S, 130.28E (USBGN, 1957b), Melville Island, Northern Territory, Australia, on 9 October 1911, by J.P. Rogers (no. 2144). From the Mathews Collection (no. 10638) via the Rothschild Collection.
COMMENTS: Mathews cited his catalog number of the holotype in the original description. In addition to Rogers’ field label, the specimen bears a Rothschild Museum label printed ‘‘Ex. coll. G.M. Mathews’’ as well as Mathews and Rothschild type labels.
Paratypes: AMNH 653062 (Mathews no. 11327, Rogers no. 2359), male, 7 November; AMNH 653064 (11326, 2544), male, 28 November; AMNH 653067 (10640, 2145), female, 9 October; AMNH 653068 (10641, 2254), female, 22 October; AMNH 653069 (10639, 2185), female, 13 October; and AMNH 653072 (11328, 2596), male, 7 December. They were all collected at Coopers Camp in 1911 by Rogers, whose 1912 specimens were not cataloged by Mathews until July 1912, long after the publication of the name on 2 April 1912.
 Schodde and Dickinson (2005), as first revisers, have selected Mathews’ name Monarcha alecto melvillensis as the senior secondary homonym over Myiagra rubecula melvillensis, published in the same publication. Thus, Myiagra rubecula melvillensis is both junior and invalid when the species alecto is considered a member of the genus Myiagra, as it is at present.

Historical roots of extremist narratives in Europe
Creators: name: Forti, Steven
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: Over the past two decades, Europe has witnessed a significant rise in extremist narratives, particularly from far-right political and social actors. This surge has transformed the far right into a major political force, with far-right parties securing over 20% of the seats in the 2024 European Parliament elections. Since 2010, far-right parties have also gained governmental power in several European countries, either independently or in coalition with other right-wing or liberal parties.

This report delves into the historical roots and evolution of extremist narratives in Europe, spanning from the late 19th century to the present. It includes case studies from Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Finland, Poland, Hungary, Slovenia, Croatia, and Serbia. Conducted as part of task 3.2 of the ARENAS project, this study is the first step for analysing the current circulation of extremist narratives in the political and media spheres and their impact on European society. The ultimate goal is to develop effective responses and tools to curb the spread of these narratives and promote constructive dialogue among stakeholders.
Queue Length Aware Ad Hoc on Demand Distance Vector Routing Protocol for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks
Creators: name: Eyob, Temesgen
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2019

description: Now a day's, due to the popularity of portable computers and the increasing demands of users to access computing services in a better way, an alternative way of network service access is required. Thus, mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is one of the alternatives to achieve this requirement by providing infrastructure less services with self-configuring and reduced cost set up capability. Due to the rapid growing rate of multimedia applications (voice, video) in MANETs, quality of service (QoS) support has also grownup to be supplementary and more important. Particularly, QoS related with latency is very interesting, because latency is the most critical QoS metrics in mobile ad hoc networks mainly for delay sensitive applications. However, many of an existing MANETs routing protocols are not QoS aware specifically in terms of latency which should be considered as the main design requirement of the routing protocol. Hence, a QoS supporting routing protocol that finds the optimal routing path between two or more mobile devices is needed. Therefore, in this thesis, we evaluated three well known MANET routing Protocols, Dynamic Source Routing Protocol Routing (DSR), Destination Sequenced Distance Vector (DSDV), and Ad Hoc on Demand Distance Vector Routing (AODV), from the perspectives of delivering QoS efficiently based on QoS metrics and designed an efficient routing protocol for (MANETs) that mitigate latency by modifying the header fields of the original AODV routing protocol to consider path delay during path selection using node queue length. The proposed QLAODV routing protocol is simulated using Network Simulator-2.35 and comparisons are made to analyze its performance based on packet delivery ratio, normalized routing overhead, and average end to end delay for different network scenarios. As the simulation results reveal that in terms of end to end delay and packet delivery ratio the proposed QL-AODV achieves relatively better performance than both ad hoc ondemand distance vector protocol (AODV) and hop count and time based AODV (HTAODV) at the expense of higher normalized routing overhead. For instance, the simulation results of QL-AODV when compared to AODV showed an average improvement of 5.43 % and 2.65% in end to end delay and packet delivery ratio, respectively.

description: Background: Comparing the effectiveness of interventions is now a requirement for regulatory approval in several countries. It also aids in clinical and public health decision-making. However, in the absence of head-to-head randomized trials (RCTs), determining the relative effectiveness of interventions is challenging. Several methodological options are now available. We aimed to determine the comparative validity of the adjusted indirect comparisons of RCTs with the mixed treatment comparison approach. Methods Using systematic searching, we identified all meta-analyses evaluating more than 3 interventions for a similar disease state with binary outcomes. We abstracted data on each clinical trial including population n and outcomes. We conducted fixed effects meta-analysis of each intervention versus mutual comparator and then applied the adjusted indirect comparison. We conducted a mixed treatment meta-analysis on all trials and compared the point estimates and 95% confidence/credible intervals (CIs/CrIs) to determine important differences. Results We included data from 7 reviews that met our inclusion criteria, allowing a total of 51 comparisons. According to the a priori consistency rule, we found 2 examples where the analytic comparisons were statistically significant using the mixed treatment comparison over the adjusted indirect comparisons and 1 example where this was vice versa. We found 6 examples where the direction of effect differed according to the indirect comparison method chosen and we found 9 examples where the confidence intervals were importantly different between approaches. Conclusion In most analyses, the adjusted indirect comparison yields estimates of relative effectiveness equal to the mixed treatment comparison. In less complex indirect comparisons, where all studies share a mutual comparator, both approaches yield similar benefits. As comparisons become more complex, the mixed treatment comparison may be favoured.

description: Sultana vines were grown in solution culture for eight weeks from budburst with root temperatures kept at 11, 20, or 30 °C. Air temperatures were common to all treatments and fluctuated between a minimum of 20 °C at night and a maximum of 35 °C in the day. The growth of shoots, roots, and infloroscenres increased with increasing root temperature. With roots at 30° C growth continued throughout the experiment; with roots at 20° growth practically stopped when the vines flowered, about four weeks after the experiment began; with roots at 11 °C very little growth occurred. The distribution of dry matter between the various plant parts differed between the different root temperatures; vines with roots at 30 °C had the highest shoot/root ratio. The percentage of flowers which set on plants with roots at 30 °C was more than twice that on plants with roots at 20 °C; with roots at 11 °C either very few berries set or the bunches died.

Sustainable Management Plan for Enhancing Arid Aquifers Resiliency Under Climate Change and Anthropogenic Impacts

Year: 2024

description: Sustainable management and augmentation of aquifers are major challenges for arid countries like Qatar. Qatar has a hyper-arid climate characterized by minimal rainfall and extremely high temperatures. Over the last two decades, the country’s population has risen fivefold, Doha urbanization has risen eightfold, and per-capita water consumption has reached an unprecedented rate. The combined effects of these factors pressurized the country’s aquifers, leading to severe water shortages (e.g., water table decline and storage losses) and high deteriorations in quality (e.g., seawater intrusion). This hinders the current expansion of agricultural activities and food security, and, therefore, threatens a critical development pillar of the Qatar National Vision 2030: ensuring “Food Security and Safety”. The challenge, therefore, is to stop the enduring depletion and to manage and augment aquifer storage while at the same time meeting increased demands. This complex challenge exhibits the dire necessity of an integrated approach for the sustainable management of aquifers based on understanding their response to human needs and climatic stresses.The stepwise methodology comprised four parts. The first step included historical data collation, analysis, and future projections of demand. The study proceeded by projecting climatic data through 2100 under two representative concentration pathways using an ensemble of climate models. Following that, a physically-based spatially distributed hydrological model was built to estimate groundwater recharge. Some field and lab work was conducted to analyze evapotranspiration losses and characterize hydraulic properties. Then, the consequent impact on the groundwater system was simulated using 3D finite-difference-based groundwater flow model. The resulting change in groundwater depth and storage were simulated, and consequently, modeling results were used to examine possible scenarios for aquifer protection against climate change and anthropogenic impacts. While Qatar is the case study, the proposed approach is also applicable in arid areas with similar characteristics.

description: Zum Studium des Stoffwechsels reifender Traubenbeeren führten wir traubentragenden Trieben und isolierten Trauben zunächst in Dunkelversuchen 1.4- 14C-Weinsäure, uniform markierte 14C-Glucose und 14C-Glutaminsäure sowie 1- 14C-Acetat zu. In Mitt. II (2) haben wir über die Verteilung und Veratmung dieser Verbindungen berichtet. Zur Charakterisierung des Stoffwechsels der markierten Verbindungen haben wir die Fraktionen Beerenextrakte chromatographisch in die Stoffgruppen Neutralstoffe (Zucker), organische Säuren, Aminosäuren und weiter in Einzelsubstanzen aufgetrennt und deren Radioaktivität gemessen. In gleicher Weise sind auch die Beerenextrakte der Versuche mit isolierten Trauben nach Zufuhr von 3-14C-Äpfelsäure und nach Fixierung von 14CO2 im Hellen und Dunkeln aufgearbeitet und untersucht worden. Äpfel- und Weinsäure haben voneinander verschiedene Stoffwechselwege. Aus Glucose und Glutaminsäure entstehen wenig Weinsäure und vergleichsweise viel Äpfelsäure, während aus Acetat hauptsächlich Äpfelsäure gebildet wird. Unter den experimentellen Bedingungen wurde Weinsäure ausschließlich veratmet, wogegen Äpfelsäure neben der Veratmung markierte Metabolite aller 3 Stoffgruppen bildet. Aus Äpfelsäure werden wie aus Acetat und Glutaminsäure in den Dunkelversuchen Zucker gebildet; im Hellversuch ist die Zuckerbildung aus Äpfelsäure stark vermehrt. Unter Berücksichtigung der bevorzugten Bildung von Säuren bei der C02-Dunkelfixierung und von Zuckern während der C02-Hellfixierung werden die Bildungsmechanismen für Säuren und Zucker diskutiert. Die Umwandlung von Säuren in Zucker in reifenden Traubenbeeren ist damit sichergestellt. Die Versuche mit 14C-Verbindungen werden weitergeführt.

description: Background: Contusive spinal cord injury is complicated by a delayed loss of oligodendrocytes, resulting in chronic progressive demyelination. Therefore, transplantation strategies to provide oligodendrocyte lineage cells and to enhance the extent of myelination appear to be justified for spinal cord repair. The present study investigated whether transplantation of human neural stem cells (NSCs) genetically modified to express Olig2 transcription factor, an essential regulator of oligodendrocyte development, can improve locomotor recovery and enhance myelination in a rat contusive spinal cord injury model. Results HB1.F3 (F3) immortalized human NSC line was transduced with a retroviral vector encoding Olig2, an essential regulator of oligodendrocyte development. Overexpression of Olig2 in human NSCs (F3.Olig2) induced activation of NKX2.2 and directed differentiation of NSCs into oligodendrocyte lineage cells in vitro. Introduction of Olig2 conferred higher proliferative activity, and a much larger number of F3.Olig2 NSCs were detected by 7 weeks after transplantation into contused spinal cord than that of parental F3 NSCs. F3.Olig2 NSCs exhibited frequent migration towards the white matter, whereas F3 NSCs were mostly confined to the gray matter or around the lesion cavities. Most of F3.Olig2 NSCs occupying the spared white matter differentiated into mature oligodendrocytes. Transplantation of F3.Olig2 NSCs increased the volume of spared white matter and reduced the cavity volume. Moreover, F3.Olig2 grafts significantly increased the thickness of myelin sheath around the axons in the spared white matter. Finally, animals with F3.Olig2 grafts showed an improvement in the quality of hindlimbs locomotion. Conclusion Transplantation of NSCs genetically modified to differentiate into an oligodendrocytic lineage may be an effective strategy to improve functional outcomes following spinal cord trauma. The present study suggests that molecular factors governing cell fate decisions can be manipulated to enhance reparative potential of the cell-based therapy.

description: Diabetes is one of the most prevalent non-communicable diseases when raised levels of glucose in the blood because the body cannot produce any or enough of the hormone insulin or use insulin effectively. If the disease is not managed on time, it will born long-term diabetic complications like retinopathy with potential loss of vision, nephropathy leading to renal failure, peripheral neuropathy with risk of foot ulcer, amputations and cardiovascular problem, as well as sexual dysfunction. International Diabetes federation 2017 report Ethiopia is the first ranked with 2.6 million from top 4 African countries for number of people with diabetes. It shows growing of long term complication and cause of death. These problems are lack of awareness, limitation in screening protocols, scarcity of specialist, less propaganda for intervention programs and poor accessibility to health care services. To struggle such problem, this study attempts to design and developed a prototype of an integration of prediction model with the knowledge based system that can provide advice for user to facilitate the diagnosis and treatment of diabetic patients. The knowledge is extracted for developed this knowledge based system using five data mining classification algorithm namely PART, J48, REPTree, Random Tree and Jrip, from Debre Berhan referral hospital diabetes dataset. After compared those algorithm, J48 decision tree Perform 98.84% correct result than the other and got enough rules that can be used for type of diabetes diagnosis. In other way, knowledge extracted from domain experts and document analysis for diabetes treatment. Hence, the prototype of knowledge based system which provides diabetic patient diagnosis and treatment was developed using SWI-Prolog 7.6.4 and Java NetBeans IDE 8.2 with JDK 8 for integrating with graphical user interface respectively. The overall performance achieves 91.9% accuracy with an average system performance. But, further researches should be done to increase the merits of integrating Data mining induced knowledge with knowledge base system.

description: The COVID-19 pandemic and large-scale administration of multiple SARS-CoV-2 vaccines have attracted global attention to the short-term and long-term effects on the human immune system. An analysis of the “traces” left by the body’s T-cell immune response is needed, especially for the prevention and treatment of breakthrough infections and long COVID-19 and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variant infections. T-cell receptor complementarity determining region 3 (TCR CDR3) repertoire serves as a target molecule for monitoring the effects, mechanisms, and memory of the T-cell response. Furthermore, it has been extensively applied in the elucidation of the infectious mechanism and vaccine refinement of hepatitis B virus (HBV), influenza virus, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and SARS-CoV. Laboratories worldwide have utilized high-throughput sequencing (HTS) and scTCR-seq to characterize, share, and apply the TCR CDR3 repertoire in COVID-19 patients and SARS-CoV-2 vaccine recipients. This article focuses on the comparative analysis of the diversity, clonality, V&J gene usage and pairing, CDR3 length, shared CDR3 sequences or motifs, and other characteristics of TCR CDR3 repertoire. These findings provide molecular targets for evaluating T-cell response effects and short-term and long-term impacts on the adaptive immune system following SARS-CoV-2 infection or vaccination and establish a comparative archive of T-cell response “traces.”
A methodology for the analysis of differential coexpression across the human lifespan

description: Background: Differential coexpression is a change in coexpression between genes that may reflect 'rewiring' of transcriptional networks. It has previously been hypothesized that such changes might be occurring over time in the lifespan of an organism. While both coexpression and differential expression of genes have been previously studied in life stage change or aging, differential coexpression has not. Generalizing differential coexpression analysis to many time points presents a methodological challenge. Here we introduce a method for analyzing changes in coexpression across multiple ordered groups (e.g., over time) and extensively test its validity and usefulness. Results: Our method is based on the use of the Haar basis set to efficiently represent changes in coexpression at multiple time scales, and thus represents a principled and generalizable extension of the idea of differential coexpression to life stage data. We used published microarray studies categorized by age to test the methodology. We validated the methodology by testing our ability to reconstruct Gene Ontology (GO) categories using our measure of differential coexpression and compared this result to using coexpression alone. Our method allows significant improvement in characterizing these groups of genes. Further, we examine the statistical properties of our measure of differential coexpression and establish that the results are significant both statistically and by an improvement in semantic similarity. In addition, we found that our method finds more significant changes in gene relationships compared to several other methods of expressing temporal relationships between genes, such as coexpression over time. Conclusion: Differential coexpression over age generates significant and biologically relevant information about the genes producing it. Our Haar basis methodology for determining age-related differential coexpression performs better than other tested methods. The Haar basis set also lends itself to ready interpretation in terms of both evolutionary and physiological mechanisms of aging and can be seen as a natural generalization of two-category differential coexpression.
