Parkiana

description: Genus PARKIANA Cho, 2020
Type species: Parkiana matutinalis Cho & Agassiz, 2020b: 275 (nec Cho & Agassiz, 2020a: 108).
The genus Parkiana Cho was recently established from Madagascar (Cho et al., 2020b). It is characterized by the following diagnostic characters, which permit to distinguish it from allied genera in the subfamily Torodorinae: flagellum of the antenna usually thickened and flattened in basal 1/3, then creamy white medially and dark brown in apical 1/5 (colouring homogeneous in this genus, while usually characteristic of species in other genera); forewing narrowly elongated; ground colour dark yellowish-brown; forewing venation with R 2 and R 3 merged together; R 4 and R 5 stalked or R 5 absent; M 3 free; CuA 1 and CuA 2 stalked; hind wing venation with M 2 present and M 3 usually merged with CuA 1. The male genitalia are similar to those of Thubdora Park or Torodora Meyrick.
The following four species are assigned to this genus. The fourth species, P. radamella (Viette, 1968), comb. nov. has a distinctly shortened hind wing with rounded termen, and thus differs from the other three species of the genus. It is tentatively placed in Parkiana herein, but further investigations are needed to clarify its generic position (including DNA sequence study, which requires fresh material).

Remarks.
We provisionally retain the position of the genus Elegansovella in the family Urodinychidae on the basis of the following characters: setae h 1 long; chelicerae with internal sclerotized node and without mushroom- or flower-shaped sensory organ on fixed digit; corniculi smooth apically. However, all taxa of this family merit revision.

Occurrence and habitat.
This species was collected in Bismarck Archipelago and New Guinea (Hirschmann 1989).
Note.
Hirschmann (1973) mentioned D. elegans as the synonym of D. pectinata. Later, he (Hirschmann 1989) separated these two species again based on the shape of the basis of the epistome and the width of the peritreme. In our opinion, these differences are too weak and not sufficient to separate the two species. Furthermore, both species were collected in the same region. Thus, we agree with Hirschmann’s (1973) opinion that D. elegans is the junior synonym of D. pectinata.

Function of Centromere RNA in Chromosome Breakage Repair and Kinetochore Organization
Creators: name: Kokkanti, Aryan
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2024

description:
Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) 2024 final slide deck. Centromere RNA is known to have a purpose in chromosome segregation, but the specific function has not been determined. My project explores the potential function of centromere RNA (cenRNA) in chromosome breakage repair and kinetochore organization. We utilize a budding yeast strain with heavily decreased cenRNA and the associated control strain. To look at its function in repair, we create a conditionally dicentric chromosome that can be forced to break in certain media. To look at its function in kinetochore organization, we add fluorescent markers at kinetochore and spindle pole body proteins Ndc80 and Spc29, respectively.

Adela janineae; De Prins & De Prins 2019 (Afromoths website).
Lecithocera janineae; Lees & Minet 2003: 758.
Type. 1♀ (holotype), North-East Madagascar, Antongil Bay, A. Mocquerys leg., 1898; Muséum Paris, Mission P. Viette (Sept. 1951 - Mar. 1952) [probably a misplaced label]; Nemophora janineae n. sp. Holotype ♀, P. Viette; genitalia: prep. J. Minet no. 1666.
Adults (Figs. 2 A–B). Wingspan, 18 mm. The superficial character of this species, including the pattern of both wings and the antenna are well in accordance with the genus Parkiana. The species is distinguished from its allies by the forewing with a large yellowish-white discal spot. Abdominal segments have broad spinose zones with weak spines dorsally (Fig. 2G).
Female genitalia (Fig. 2 C–F): Illustrated for the first time. Abdominal sternite VIII deeply emarginated medially on caudal margin. Antrum triangular, funnel-shaped. Ductus bursae membranous, narrowed in posterior 1/4; median part broadened with numerous conic spines, narrowed again in anterior 1/4; ductus seminalis narrow, arising from posterior 3/4. Corpus bursae extremely long; signum at middle, grooved centrally, with dense conic spines.
Remarks. The species was originally placed in Nemophora Hoffmannsegg (Adelidae), but was transferred to the Lecithoceridae by Lees & Minet (2003: 757), provisionally as a member of the genus Lecithocera (ibid.: 758). However, this species surely belongs to Parkiana Cho, in view of its wing pattern and antennae.

Research priorities in prediction of response in early breast cancer
Creators: name: Carey, Lisa A.
Publisher: name: Elsevier
Year: 2019

description:
With increasingly effective treatments, breast cancer outcomes have markedly improved, so goals of research in the modern era must be to tailor treatment to risk and response - we must escalate therapy in those who need better, more effective drugs, but we must also de-escalate therapy in those who are overtreated by current approaches. Research priorities in the upcoming years will be to better identify tumor biologic features conferring a high sensitivity to drugs, thereby allowing more tailored and less aggressive regimens, as well as tumor features conferring resistance to drugs, which can be then be omitted. The neoadjuvant approach to therapy, which has become the standard for HER2-positive and triple negative breast cancer, has already given us response-tailored therapy through the advent of residual disease strategies; we will need to learn to leverage this approach even more to further tailor treatment and maximize clinical benefit.
Triple negative breast cancer: Pitfalls and progress
Creators: name: Zagami, Paola

description:
Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is characterized by the lack of estrogen and progesterone receptor expression and lacks HER2 overexpression or gene amplification. It accounts for 10–15% of incident breast cancers and carries the worst prognosis. TNBC is overrepresented among Black and pre-menopausal women and is associated with significant psychological and treatment-related burdens, including financial toxicity. Like other breast cancers, TNBC is biologically heterogeneous, leading to diverse clinical and epidemiological behaviors, however, unlike the other clinical subtypes, in TNBC we still lack tumor-specific targeted therapy. Early TNBC outcomes have improved due to the intensification of therapies, including improvements in polychemotherapy and the addition of immunotherapy. Future efforts are needed to identify targetable aberrations for specific drug therapy, prevent immune evasion, and increase social-economic support. Given that the name TNBC illustrates its lack of specifically targeted and effective therapy, we look forward to being able to retire the name in favor of a group of targetable entities within what is now called “TNBC”.

description:
Identifying patients at higher risk of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a major unmet need given its high incidence, persistence, and detrimental effect on quality of life. We determined if the expression of p16, a biomarker of aging and cellular senescence, predicts CIPN in a prospective, multi-center study of 152 participants enrolled between 2014 and 2018. Any women with newly diagnosed Stage I–III breast cancer scheduled to receive taxane-containing chemotherapy was eligible. The primary outcome was development of grade 2 or higher CIPN during chemotherapy graded by the clinician before each chemotherapy cycle (NCI-CTCAE v5 criteria). We measured p16 expression in peripheral blood T cells by qPCR before and at the end of chemotherapy. A multivariate model identified risk factors for CIPN and included taxane regimen type, p16Age Gap, a measure of discordance between chronological age and p16 expression, and p16 expression before chemotherapy. Participants with higher p16Age Gap—higher chronological age but lower p16 expression prior to chemotherapy - were at the highest risk. In addition, higher levels of p16 before treatment, regardless of patient age, conferred an increased risk of CIPN. Incidence of CIPN positively correlated with chemotherapy-induced increase in p16 expression, with the largest increase seen in participants with the lowest p16 expression before treatment. We have shown that p16 expression levels before treatment can identify patients at high risk for taxane-induced CIPN. If confirmed, p16 might help guide chemotherapy selection in early breast cancer.

(Figs. 4 A–E)
Lecithocera radamella Viette, 1968: 88. TL: Amber Mountain, Les Roussettes.
Type. 1♂ (holotype), North Madagascar, Amber Mountain (Montagne d’Ambre), Les Roussettes, alt. 1,000 m, 7 xii 1958, P. Viette leg.; P.E.L. Viette det. 1967, Lecithocera radamella n. sp., Holotype, ♂, P. Viette; genitalia: prep. P. Viette no. 4678.
Adults (Figs. 4A, B). Wingspan, 15 mm. The species has a similar pattern of the forewing and the antenna with the type species, P. matutinalis Cho & Agassiz, but the hind wing is characteristically shortened with rounded termen, and M 3 merged with CuA 1.
Male genitalia (Figs. 4C, D): Viette (1968) noted that the male genitalia are similar to those of L. compsophila (Meyrick, 1911) which was described from Sri Lanka (Ceylon). The male genitalia were dissected and examined by Viette (1968, gen. prep. P. Viette no. 4678), however, he did not illustrate the genitalia (illustrated here for the first time).
Remarks. The new species can be distinguished from its allies by having a uniquely shortened hind wing, with rounded termen. In view of this unusual shape of the hind wing, it should perhaps be removed from Parkiana. However, it is tentatively placed in this genus, further study being needed to reassess its generic status.
Distribution. Madagascar (North) (Viette, 1968).

description: 3.2. E. coli and total coliforms
Coliforms were identified by Coliscan culture along both rivers in July 2015 (see Figure 2). The distribution of E.coli showed highest concentration at both the upstream and downstream margins of the community on the Jiquiriçá River (seeFigure 2). Total coliforms were most intense near the population center of the community and downstream as the rivers passed through the remaining section of the community. The surface water concentrations of E. coli and total coliforms was lowest at the source of the piped water supply and were further reduced by half after water treatment, but were never zero. E. coli was present at 2-4 CFU/mL in samples of piped water (Points 11 and 12), and the concentrations of other coliforms were at 148 and 136 CFU/mL,respectively.Therefore, according to Brazilian Federal Environmental Council – CONAMA standards of human drinking water (zero E. coli CFU /mL), the evaluated water is not appropriate for use.

description: The authors explore the statement, "human resources are the most valued asset in every business organization". The interactive focus group approach was adopted, where 35 MBA students were placed into five focus groups to brainstorm the statement. The statement was explored using intra- and inter-group analytical tools. Under the guidance of the researchers, each group discussed the statement to generate their outcomes (intra-group analysis) before the outcomes from the five groups were analyzed (inter-groups analysis) to generate the findings of the study. It emerged that human resources are the most valued asset because without them, other assets will lie idle. However, the ‘most valued asset’ accolade is without criticism, for which suggested solutions are offered. The study contributes to the debate by diving deeper into the meaning of human resources; confirming human resources as an asset; revealing why it is an asset, and offering suggestions to render them more valuable.

Trastuzumab acts in part through the adaptive immune system. Previous studies showed that enrichment of immune-related gene expression was associated with improved outcomes in HER2-positive (HER2+) breast cancer. However, the role of the immune system in response to lapatinib is not fully understood. Gene expression analysis was performed in 1,268 samples from the North Central Cancer Treatment Group (NCCTG) N9831 and 244 samples from the NeoALTTO trial. In N9831, enrichment of CD45 and immune-subset signatures were significantly associated with improved outcomes. We identified a novel 17-gene adaptive immune signature (AIS), which was found to be significantly associated with improved RFS among patients who received adjuvant trastuzumab (HR 0.66, 95% CI 0.49–0.90, Cox regression model p = 0.01) but not in patients who received chemotherapy alone (HR 0.96, 95% CI 0.67–1.40, Cox regression model p = 0.97). This result was validated in NeoALTTO. Overall, AIS-low patients had a significantly lower pathologic complete response (pCR) rate compared with AIS-high patients (χ2p < 0.0001). Among patients who received trastuzumab alone, pCR was observed in 41.7% of AIS-high patients compared with 9.8% in AIS-low patients (OR of 6.61, 95% CI 2.09–25.59, logistic regression model p = 0.003). More importantly, AIS-low patients had a higher pCR rate with an addition of lapatinib (51.1% vs. 9.8%, OR 9.65, 95% CI 3.24–36.09, logistic regression model p < 0.001). AIS-low patients had poor outcomes, despite receiving adjuvant trastuzumab. However, these patients appear to benefit from an addition of lapatinib. Further studies are needed to validate the significance of this signature to identify patients who are more likely to benefit from dual anti-HER2 therapy. ClinicalTrials.gov Identifiers: NCT00005970 (NCCTG N9831) and NCT00553358 (NeoALTTO).

Type material. Holotype Ψ: Western Australia: Rocky Gully, -34.509 117.113, 19 Nov. 2008, S.L. Winterton & S.D. Gaimari, roadside vegetation (QM).
Description. Total length: 3.7 mm.
Head: Cranium reddish-brown, palpi and lacinae dull yellow-orange, A1–6 orange brown, A6–9 dark brown, antennal club black-brown; frons, most of vertex and genae behind eyes densely distributed with a network of close punctation which is slightly wrinkled above and behind eye; clypeus smooth; antennae with pedicel shorter than A3, club slightly longer than combined length of A4–8.
Thorax: Prothorax quadrate (length to width ratio = 1:1), reddish-brown; pronotal disc mostly covered by a dense network of wrinkled punctation and with a pair of conspicuous circular glabrous discs before the anterior margin; paralateral and discal seta-bearing pits less conspicuous than A. pictipes (closer together than those of other species). Mesosternum reddish-brown; metasternum black-brown; elytra (length to width ratio = 1.91:1) glossy black with a whitish curved X-shaped pattern across basal half, along suture in apical quarter pale brown; hind wings functional. Legs mostly dark brown, joints and base of femora stained with a dull yellowish-orange; tarsi orange-brown, pulvilli yellowish.
Abdomen: Ventrites 1-5 dark brown with pale apical margins; sixth ventrite narrow, yellowish.
Vestiture: Head, pronotum and elytra similarly vested with long dark erect setae, and shorter pale semidecumbent setae.
Remarks. This species can be separated from A. pictipes by the reddish colour of its pronotum, which lacks a basal Y-shaped glabrous disc, and by its broader elytral base and well-developed hind wings.
Etymology. The specific epithet volans (Latin = flying or capable of flight) was chosen because A. pictipes, the species most closely related to A. volans sp. n., is brachypterous.
Biology. The single known specimen was collected from unknown roadside vegetation in November.

However, in Darejanashvili (2000) only forest type is indicated without geographical location and in Darejanashvili & Gurgenidze (2004) this species is not listed at all. Also “Eastern Georgia ” as a whole is regarded as one sampling point, which cannot be regarded as single locality. So, we excluded these locations from the list.

description: TORODORA Meyrick, 1894
Type species: Torodora characteris Meyrick, 1894.
The Lecithocera species described by Viette (1955 – 1988) definitely do not belong to the subfamily Lecithocerinae (hence are not members of the genus Lecithocera Herrich-Schäffer); actually they all belong to the subfamily Torodorinae since they have spinose zones on the abdominal segments (dorsally), and male genitalia possessing an elongate uncus but lacking the well developed costal bar occurring in Lecithocerinae (i.e. a bar connecting tegumen and valva). The 12 “ Lecithocera ” species assigned to Torodora may show considerable variations in the venation of both wings: CuA 1 and CuA 2 stalked or coincident in the forewing; M 3 stalked with CuA 1 or M 3 entirely merged with CuA 1 in the hind wing. Although such differences in the wing venation can be easily observed, there are no marked differences in the male genitalia and in the abdominal segments VII–VIII (not specifically modified). Accordingly, all the species are tentatively placed together in a single genus, Torodora Meyrick, also on account of other similarities, notably in antennae, labial palpi, and wing pattern. The interrelationships of these species will probably be solved by the further analysis of DNA sequences when fresh material can be obtained. All the species assigned to Torodora in Madagascar are here tentatively divided into two species-groups, based on differences in the hind wing venation (M 3 stalked with CuA 1 or M 3 merged with CuA 1).
On the other hand, it should be noted that two of these species had already been transferred to the genus Torodora by Park (2018), namely T. kambanella (Viette, 1986) and T. masoalella (Viette, 1955).

description:
Cancer and cardiovascular diseases are the two major causes of mortality, morbidity, and disability worldwide. The improvement in effective therapeutic options for the management of breast cancer (BC) has led to an increased number of BC survivors, who can experience long-term toxicities from cancer treatments. Adverse events including cardiovascular toxicities must be considered in light of effectiveness of recently approved drugs for BC treatment, including elacestrant, tucatinib, neratinib, olaparib, the immune checkpoint inhibitors, trastuzumab deruxtecan, or sacituzumab govitecan. Many cancer drugs affect the cardiovascular system with a range of clinical manifestations. Prompt diagnosis and treatment as well as a multidisciplinary approach involving a cardio-oncologist is optimal for management of these cardiovascular events.

description: This study looked at the effect of leadership management skills on performance of selected private hospitals in Enugu metropolis. The specific objectives were to; examine the extent to which conflict resolution affect employee turnover of selected private hospitals in Enugu metropolis and ascertain the extent to which delegation affect employee productivity of selected private hospitals in Enugu metropolis. The study adopted a survey design. The population of the study was one hundred and ninety-eight (198). The sample size of 198 was adopted due to manageable unite of the population. The study used convenience sampling procedure and structured questionnaire was used to select respondents. Simple regression analysis tool was employed to test two formulated hypotheses. The findings revealed that conflict resolution had a significant positive effect on employee turnover of selected private hospitals in Enugu metropolis (F=1,035, pv=.000<0.05) and delegation channel had a statistically significant positive effect on employee productivity selected private hospitals in Enugu metropolis (F=1,037, pv=.008<0.05). Therefore, based on the findings, researcher also concluded that effective leadership management skills is an important aspect as it usually enables the employees of the organizations to work efficiently and deliver excellent results. The study thus recommends that hospital managers must not relay on their traditional ways of resolving conflict rather they provide modern ways of conflict resolution by initiating conflict resolve panel as a unit of the organization.
