description: Shape manipulation is a central research topic in computer graphics. Topology editing, such as breaking apart connections, joining disconnected ends, and filling/opening a topological hole, is generally more challenging than geometry editing. In this paper, we observe that the saddle points of the signed distance function (SDF) provide useful hints for altering surface topology deliberately. Based on this key observation, we parameterize the SDF into a cubic trivariate tensor-product B-spline function $F$ whose saddle points $\{\boldsymbol{s}_i\}$ can be quickly exhausted based on a subdivision-based root-finding technique coupled with Newton's method. Users can select one of the candidate points, say $\boldsymbol{s}_i$, to edit the topology in real time. In implementation, we add a compactly supported B-spline function rooted at $\boldsymbol{s}_i$, which we call a \textit{deformer} in this paper, to $F$, with its local coordinate system aligning with the three eigenvectors of the Hessian. Combined with ray marching technique, our interactive system operates at 30 FPS. Additionally, our system empowers users to create desired bulges or concavities on the surface. An extensive user study indicates that our system is user-friendly and intuitive to operate. We demonstrate the effectiveness and usefulness of our system in a range of applications, including fixing surface reconstruction errors, artistic work design, 3D medical imaging and simulation, and antiquity restoration. Please refer to the attached video for a demonstration.

description: Target lipid model (TLM) and toxic unit (TU) approaches were applied to ecotoxicity and chemistry data from low-energy WAFs (LE-WAFs) of source and weathered crude oils originating from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. The weathered oils included artificially weathered oils and naturally weathered samples collected in the Gulf of Mexico after the spill. Oil weathering greatly reduced the concentrations of identified LE-WAF components, however, the mass of uncharacterized polar material (UPC) in the LE-WAFs remained largely unchanged during the weathering process. While the TLM-derived calculations displayed a significant decrease in toxicity (TUs) for the heavily weathered oils, copepod toxicity, expressed as LC10-based TUs, were comparable between LE-WAFs of fresh and weathered oils. The discrepancy between observed and predicted toxicity for the LE-WAFs of artificially weathered oils may be related to limitations by the chemical analyses or increased toxicity due to generation of new unknown compounds during the weathering process.

Harold (1867b, 1869a) clearly states his specimens were collected by Henry Walter Bates in Pebas, Peru. Without explanation, Gillet (1911) and Blackwelder (1944) cited the species only from Mexico and Martínez & Halffter (1986a) cited the species only from Bolivia. Here I decided to follow Harold’s original report since there is no evidence suggesting it is wrong.

description: Recent studies have revealed a notable connection between pesticide exposure and Recurrent Pregnancy Loss (RPL), yet the precise molecular underpinning of this toxicity remains elusive. Through the alignment of Differentially Expressed Genes (DEGs) of healthy and RPL patients with the target genes of 9 pesticide components, we identified a set of 12 genes responsible for RPL etiology. Interestingly, biological process showed that besides RPL, those 12 genes also associated with preeclampsia and cardiovascular disease. Enrichment analysis showed the engagement of these genes associated with essential roles in the molecular transport of small molecules, as well as the aldosterone-regulated sodium reabsorption, endocrine and other factor-regulated calcium reabsorption, mineral absorption, ion homeostasis, and ion transport by P-type ATPases. Notably, the crosstalk targets between pesticide components played crucial roles in influencing RPL results, suggesting a role in attenuating pesticide agents that contribute to RPL. It is important to note that non-significant concentration of the pesticide components observed in both control and RPL samples should not prematurely undermine the potential for pesticides to induce RPL in humans. This study emphasizes the complexity of pesticide induced RPL and highlights avenues for further research and precautionary measures.

≡ Colpogyne betsiliensis (Humbert) B. L. Burtt in Humbert, Fl. Madagascar Comores 180: 148. 1971.
Typus: MADAGASCAR. Prov. Fianarantsoa: Mt Analamamy, Perrier de la Bâthie 12482A (holo-: P [P00088746]!; iso-: P [P00088748]!).
Distribution and ecology. – Streptocarpus betsiliensis, S. ibityensis and S. lanatus form an intriguing triplet, not only because of their taxonomic history, but of their morphology, and distribution. Geographically S. lanatus occurs in very close sympatry with S. betsiliensis on Mt. Itremo, and both are absent from Mt. Ibity, where S. ibityensis occurs. This is very interesting to note, because S. itremensis B. L. Burtt, a close relative of the three species mentioned above, occurs in both places. Whether S. betsiliensis is absent on Mt. Ibity, or overlooked, would be interesting to study further, as the area between the two mountains ranges has not been explored extensively so far.
In their natural environments plants of the triplet often occupy spaces under rocks or in deep crevices in very dark environments. Occupying these marginal ecological niches may have been enabled by the ability to enlarge one of their cotyledons from a basal meristem (a characteristic which is recorded for other species of Streptocarpus: BURTT, 1970; JONG & BURTT, 1975), which are raised into the path of better light, probably to maximize light capture in these marginal habitats.
Conservation Status. – Streptocarpus betsiliensis occurs on the Itremo massif with countless individuals present under many rocks and in crevices (MM, pers. obs.). The species is restricted to the Itremo massif and has an “Extent of Occurrence” (EOO) of 1,150 km 2, an “Area of Occupancy” (AOO) of 63 km 2 and with seven known sub-populations (four occurring in the proposed Protected Area of Itremo) (calculated following CALLMANDER et al., 2007), S. betsiliensis is provisionally assessed as “Vulnerable” [VU B1ab(i, iii)+ B2ab(i, iii)] following IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria (IUCN, 2012) given the restricted range of the species and the current temporary protection of the Itremo massif, but the threat to the species will certainly increase if the temporary protection is removed.

Etymology. Named after Alexey Diakonoff (1907‒1989), a famous entomologist who substantially contributed to taxonomy of so-called ‘microlepidoptera’ (van Helsdingen & van Nieukerken 1989) and, in particular, described the species for which a replacement name is suggested.

description: Modified synthetic peptides have emerged as an exciting avenue for enhancing therapeutic efficacy and expanding the scope of applications in various disease contexts. Indeed, the inherent tunability of synthetic peptides has facilitated the creation of highly selective and responsive sensors capable of detecting specific analytes with precision. More recently, their unique structural diversity and chemical versatility has been elegantly adapted for use in supramolecular sensing platforms. This Perspective article highlights the synergistic interplay between modified synthetic peptides, therapeutic applications, and the sensing technologies that underscore the interdisciplinary nature of contemporary chemistry

Canthidium smaragdinum Harold, 1867a: 16 [here transferred to the subgenus Neocanthidium]. Type locality: Brazil and French Guiana (“ Brasilien, Cayenne”). Type material: Location of syntypes unknown. Distribution: Brazil and French Guiana (Harold 1867a) [Although explicitly saying two years earlier that his specimens came from both Brazil and Cayenne, Harold (1869a) modified the distribution of C. smaragdinum and restricted it to Brazil, which was followed by Blackwelder (1944) and Martínez & Halffter (1986a). Gillet (1911), on the other hand, considered C. smaragdinum a junior synonym of C. viride Lucas, 1859, as done earlier by Harold (1869b). Since an argument for the exclusion of French Guiana from the distributional range of C. smaragdinum was never presented in the literature, I have decided to follow Harold’s (1867a) original report].

Note. Burmeister (1861, 1943) also mentioned in the south of Catamarca, “one Cereus with few ribs (5 to 6), that shows a beautiful fruit, red color, entirely smooth, with the size of a duck’s big egg”, and that “besides the red fruits, it had the adornment of great white flowers” (translated from Spanish).

Type material: Holotype female (MNHN—ex Germar collection, via Harold and Schaum collections).
