description: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of hyaluronan-selected/physiological intracytoplasmic sperm injection (PICSI) on fertilization and quality of cleavage-stage embryos in infertile couples with ≤1% of spermatozoa with normal strict morphology (severe teratozoospermia). Seventy-seven couples underwent PICSI between October 2017 and December 2018 (PICSI group), while 75 couples underwent conventional intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) between January 2016 and September 2017 (ICSI group). Good quality embryos (GQEs) were evaluated based on morphology. Patient and cycle characteristics were comparable between the PICSI and ICSI groups, except for age and anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) level (38.4 ± 3.9 years vs. 36.3 ± 4.3 years, p = .002 and 2.06 ± 1.99 ng/mL vs. 2.97 ± 3.25 ng/mL, p = .040). The fertilization rate per oocyte inseminated and GQE rate were significantly higher in the PICSI group than in the ICSI group (82.7% vs. 71.7%, p ˂ .001 and 52.8% vs. 34.0%, p ˂ .001). Furthermore, the absence of GQEs was found to be lower in the PICSI group (13.0% vs. 30.7%, p = .008). Multivariate analysis adjusted for age and AMH level identified PICSI as an unfavorable and independent factor for the absence of GQEs (adjusted odds ratio, 0.333; 95% confidence interval, 0.125–0.890). PICSI seems to be superior to ICSI in terms of fertilization and embryo quality in couples with severe teratozoospermia.

description: We report on a back-action evading (BAE) measurement of the photon number of fiber optical solitons operating in the quantum regime. We employ a novel detection scheme based on spectral filtering of colliding optical solitons. The measurements of the BAE criteria demonstrate significant quantum state preparation and transfer of the input signal to the signal and probe outputs exiting the apparatus, displaying the quantum-nondemolition (QND) behavior of the experiment.

description: The lack of water availability led scientists to breed short duration rice varieties despite their lower yield potential than the long duration rice varieties to ensure sustainability in lowland rice fields. It is not yet clear whether this reduction in yield is due to the reduced crop duration and/or is associated with the reduction in biomass and nutrient accumulation rates. Field experiments were conducted at low-fertile and fertile sites using 22 rice varieties differing in their duration (short, medium, and long), and yield potential (low and high). Straw and grain dry weights (DW), nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K) concentrations were measured. For rice varieties grown in the low-fertility site, straw and grain DWs, biomass accumulation rate (g plant−1 day−1), and N, P, and K accumulation rates (mg plant−1 day−1) were reduced by 63, 61, 56, 44, 79, and 43%, respectively, than those observed in the fertile site. At the low-fertile site, short duration rice varieties had only 64% straw and 76% grain DWs, 67% biomass accumulation rate, and 87% N, 82% P, and 64% K accumulation rates than those observed in medium and long duration rice varieties. The differences were less pronounced at the fertile site. Reduced biomass, N, P, and K accumulation rates, apart from the reduced crop duration, hindered grain yield and thereby the sustainability of short duration rice varieties, particularly at low-fertile sites. Thus, rice breeding programs for low-fertile soils and short duration varieties should specifically be designed.

description: Whey is largely discarded by cheese manufacturing plants and in the least transformed to ricotta cheese and whey concentrates. Whey-derived yeasts have recently been considered for both spoilage activity and biotechnological potential of these products. Nevertheless, their ability to hydrolyze lactose and whey proteins is less studied. In this work yeast isolates (106), randomly collected from different samples of whey, ricotta, de-proteinized whey (scotta) and fermented ricotta cheese were identified and screened for glucose, galactose and lactose assimilation and lipase and proteolytic activities. The results showed the dominance of Kazachstania servazzii (45%) and Kluyveromyces spp. (28%). Most of yeast isolates highly metabolized glucose and galactose, whereas few fermented lactose. These results suggest that whey and whey by-products represent an exploitable reservoir of dairy yeasts with different sugar preferences.

description: The study was carried out in haor areas situated in Nikli upazila under Kishoregong district to explore the socioeconomic vulnerabilities status of the people residing near deep haor areas and their dependency on its natural resources. Total 110912 local residents who depend on the wetland for their survival are poor, with an annual average per capita income Tk 3175, a literacy rate is 20.5%.Total cultivable land 17912.75 hectares, fallow land 1007.59 hectares; single crop 79.32% and double crop land 20.68%; land under irrigation 90%.This paper also sheds light on the status of livelihood using resources and face problems are barriers to sustainable livelihood development. There haor based alternative activity is fishing (20%) followed by duck rearing (3%), Beef fating (6.6%), The study find 71% households were found effectively landless of which about 55% were absolutely landless and 17% households were migrated and 78.9% haor households are suffered from food insecurity mainly because of landlessness, mono-crop cultivation, seasonal unemployment and natural calamities. The study suggests that the avenues for prospective coping strategies are to put a stop to existing leasing system of haor water bodies, making proper arrangements for creating alternative income generating activities throughout the year. Change the money lending system and taking preventives and curative measures for natural calamities.

 Dichaetomyia Malloch, 1921a: 163. Type-species: Dichaetomyia polita Malloch, 1921 [preocc., = Dichaetomyia emdeni Pont, 1969], orig. des.
 Diagnosis. Eyes of male narrowly separated by the diameter of anterior ocellus or more; eyes in female widely separated; proclinate orbital and crossed setae on frontal vitta absent; arista long-plumose; dorsocentrals 2+2, 3 or 4, the first presutural seta shorter than the second; prosternum setulose on sides; anepimeron setulose; prealar seta present; postalar wall with sparse hairs or bare; posterior spiracle with some black setulae along lower margin; vein M only slightly curved forwards before apex; hind tibia with a well developed anterodorsal preapical in addition to dorsal one, calcar absent.
 Comments. Dichaetomyia is abundantly represented in the Australasian/Oceanian Regions, with 72 species (Pont, 1989). Two species have been recorded from New Caledonia: D. bilimbata (Bigot, 1885), described from New Caledonia, and “ Dichaetomyia sp. polita -group”, listed by Shinonaga et al. (1991) which we describe here as new. Both species are endemic and belong to the polita -group (see Pont, 1969a). Nine species belonging to this group have been described from the Oriental and Australasian Regions. Six of these are from Malaysia and the Philippines, and two are from New Guinea (D. polita (Stein) and D. nigrolineata (Stein), the latter endemic so far as is known). Pont (1969a) described D. collessi from Australia (Queensland) which, according to him, “occupies a rather isolated position amongst Australian Dichaetomyia ”, being most closely related to the New Guinea D. polita.
 Both New Caledonian species belong to the polita -group and share the following characters: male with two pairs of tiny reclinate orbital setae, and female with one strong pair of frontals near lunule and a weak pair above this; presutural acrostichal setae arranged in 9 to 10 series; dorsocentrals 2+3, the first presutural at least half as long as the posterior pair; meron bare but with fine hairs on metepisternum above hind coxa; anatergite bare; fore tibia with a submedian posterior seta; lower calypter bare on disc.
 Dichaetomyia species, and especially D. bilimbata, appear to be by far the dominant muscid populations on the island and were mainly collected at Rivière Bleue.

description: We prove a bijection between the triangulations of the 3-dimensional cyclic polytope C(n+2, 3) and persistent graphs with n vertices. We show that under this bijection the Stasheff-Tamari orders on triangulations naturally translate to subgraph inclusion between persistent graphs. Moreover, we describe a connection to the second higher Bruhat order B(n, 2). We additionally give an algorithm to efficiently enumerate all persistent graphs on n vertices and thus all triangulations of C(n+2, 3).

description: This paper explores whether farm land and non-land assets determine the participation of tomato growers in modern markets in Nicaragua, and how farmers’ duration as supermarket suppliers affects the farm technology they use. The methodology is based on a survival analysis approach. We use data from a stratified random sample of tomato farmers in Nicaragua over a 10-year period. Our results show that participation in supermarket supply chains as supermarket supplier is not determined by farm size, contrary to a common hypothesis, and thus small farmers can be supermarket suppliers. However, non-land assets are important determinants of being in the modern channel: these assets include irrigation, nonfarm assets (linked to nonfarm employment) and education. Duration as a supermarket supplier is positively correlated with farm asset accumulation and the use of modern technology (mainly in the form of capital-led intensification) of tomato farming – but negatively correlated with the share of highly toxic pesticides in overall pesticide use.

description: The present study aimed to gain insight into the genetic origin of the Shina population from Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan. We partially performed the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) control region of healthy unrelated individuals of Shina tribe residing in the remote area of Gilgit-Baltistan to investigate their maternal lineages. The present study is the first report about Shina’s genetic structure, origin, and relationship with the surrounding north-western Pakistani population. The mtDNA sequences of the Shina samples were compared with the revised Cambridge Reference Sequence (rCRS) and the HVR-1 D-loop region was covered. The comparison with rCRS identified overall 38 haplotypes and 08 haplogroups for Shina samples. Among these haplotypes, 18 were shared by more than one individual of the Shina tribe. The obtained mtDNA sequences of Shina were compared with surrounding north-western Pakistani population groups, i.e. Kho, Kashmiri, and Pathan. The genetic diversity (i.e. 1.0424) and power of discrimination (i.e. 0.9266) of the Shina was found equivalent to surrounding north-western groups. The haplogroups frequencies, phylogenetic tree and network analysis identified the west Eurasian ancestral origin of Shina group with nearby maternal ancestral relationships with the Kashmiri population. However, no close genetic relationship of Shina was depicted with nearby residing Kho population group.

description: In this study, we examine the distributional effects of research versus consumer promotion. A few years ago, a notable article by Wohlgenant (AlAE 75, 1993) investigated this issue and concluded that producers would benefit more from research on farm-level production than from research on marketing services and promotion. His findings have drawn important policy implications for the allocation of checkoff funds, especially for those producer groups (e.g., dairy, beef, and pork) who spend a large share of their funds on consumer promotion. We challenge his conclusions. We contend that his findings are confined to a special case, the parallel shift in demand and supply. To verify our claim, we reexamined his findings with an alternative case, a pivotal shift, and found that consumer promotions benefitted producers more than research activities. Our new findings indicate that the relative profitability of research versus promotion is highly sensitive to the assumption of the nature of shifts in demand and supply.

description: Ricotta forte is a traditional fermented whey cheese cream mainly manufactured in Apulia and locally in Southern Italy; it is included among the traditional agrifood products of Italian Ministry of Agricultural, Food and Forestry Policies aiming to be preserved for its cultural and gastronomic heritage. This product, obtained starting from acid-thermal denatured cheese whey added with small amounts of various milks (ricotta), undergoes a long fermentation and aging processes (over 6 months) that confers a distinctive organoleptic bouquet (pungent and cheesy flavour) and high palatability score (Faccia et al., 2018). The few microbiological studies focus on sample-specific heterofermentative lactobacilli and yeast populations, supposed to promote acidification, proteolysis and lipolysis (Baruzzi et al., 2000; Caputo et al., 2018). Since Ricotta forte is receiving increasing interest by the gourmet food markets, a standardized and sustainable manufacturing process is to develop to obtain Ricotta forte with high level of safety and quality without preservatives. In this context, OR7 workpackage of Innotipico project cod. 3QKDQX3 (Apulia Regional INNONETWORK programme 2018-2019 ) aims to develop a process of production of Ricotta forte compromising three main steps (acidification, maturation and refinement) mediated by selected microbial strains (lactic acid bacteria, yeasts and fungi, respectively) from artisanal whey cheese and ITEM Microbial Culture Collection of ISPA. The ongoing activities have already allowed to find 10 lactic acid bacteria and yeast strains able to quickly acidify the fresh ricotta and improve its spreadability and its flavour. These skills will be validated in semi-industrial productions during the experimental development activities.eng

description: A fully digital beam position and phase measurement (BPPM) system was designed for the linear accelerator (LINAC) in Accelerator Driven Sub-critical System (ADS) in China. Phase information is obtained from the summed signals from four pick-ups of the Beam Position Monitor (BPM). Considering that the delay variations of different analog circuit channels would introduce phase measurement errors, we propose a new method to tune the digital waveforms of four channels before summation and achieve real-time error correction. The process is based on the vector rotation method and implemented within one single Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) device. Tests were conducted to evaluate this correction method and the results indicate that a phase correction precision better than +/- 0.3 degree over the dynamic range from -60 dBm to 0 dBm is achieved.

description: We propose a new protocol to examine many-polaron properties in a cold atom experiment. Initially, polaronic clouds are prepared around the opposite edges of a majority gas cloud. After time evolution, the collision of two clouds exhibits various polaronic effects. To see how {\it collective} properties of many polarons with mediated interactions appear in the case in which the impurity and majority gases are composed of mass-balanced fermions with different spin components, we perform a nonlinear hydrodynamic simulation for collisional dynamics of two Fermi polaronic clouds. We found that the dynamics is governed by the impurity Fermi pressure, polaron energy, and multi-polaron correlations. In particular, shock waves occur in such a way as to reflect the many-body properties of polarons through the first sound of minority clouds. Our idea is applicable to other systems such as Bose polarons as well as mass-imbalanced mixtures.

description: We study a scenario where a group of agents, each with multiple heterogeneous sensors are collecting measurements of a vehicle and the measurements are transmitted over a communication channel to a centralized node for processing. The communication channel presents an information-transfer bottleneck as the sensors collect measurements at a much higher rate than what is feasible to transmit over the communication channel. In order to minimize the estimation error at the centralized node, only a carefully selected subset of measurements should be transmitted. We propose to select measurements based on the Fisher information matrix (FIM), as "minimizing" the inverse of the FIM is required to achieve small estimation error. Selecting measurements based on the FIM leads to a combinatorial optimization problem. However, when the criteria used to select measurements is both monotone and submodular it allows the use of a greedy algorithm that is guaranteed to be within $1-1/e\approx63\%$ of the optimum and has the critical benefit of quadratic computational complexity. To illustrate this concept, we derive the FIM criterion for different sensor types to which we apply FIM-based measurement selection. The criteria considered include the time-of-arrival and Doppler shift of passively received radio transmissions as well as detected key-points in camera images.

description: Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has become a reliable method to dissect cellular processes and cellular heterogeneity at single-cell resolution. However, the data generated by scRNA-seq experiments are high-dimensional and complex. In order to meet the increasing analysis needs of non-programming experts, we have developed a comprehensive and user-friendly online analysis platform, BestopCloud (http://cloud.bestopcell.com:3838/BestopCloud). BestopCloud consists of 9 modules, which integrates the current open-source standardized methods in the single-cell field and can perform in-depth data processing, analysis and visualization. Within each module, BestopCloud supports a variety of parameter settings and outputs publishable chart files. While maintaining the independence of modules (each module can input data and be used separately), BestopCloud supports flexible module association, breaking the conventional sequential process (Sequential Process) and making data utilization more efficient. In short, BestopCloud allows users to analyze scRNA-seq data more deeply and flexibly. The platform fills the main gap between wet experimental research and dry experimental research.

Intensive monitoring at these Nature-based-Solution (NbS) sites was carried out from the beginning of 2021 (except in Knokke from 12/2023) to 04/2024 to investigate the development of the built dunes and to follow closely their morphology and planted vegetation. This report documents the evolution of the morphology of the dune for dike pilots until the 3rd year after construction. A progressive evolution of the four pilot sites occurred over the entire monitoring period. A substantial accretion took place in the 1st year in the zones where marram grass and/or brushwood fences were installed. These allowed to capture effectively the aeolian sand transport. Since the 2nd monitoring year , there has been a reduction in sand trapping, which could be related to the saturation of the vegetated boxes as well as a difference of wind conditions over the monitoring periods. At Raversijde, this reduction could be further caused by a diminished sand availability after the nourishment in 2021. Further monitoring surveys will help to understand the observed relationships between accretion in the upper part of the dry beach and erosion dominating its lower part above the low water mark. These would also confirm the temporal behaviour and evolution of the NbS sites.

description: Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has become a reliable method to dissect cellular processes and cellular heterogeneity at single-cell resolution. However, the data generated by scRNA-seq experiments are high-dimensional and complex. In order to meet the increasing analysis needs of non-programming experts, we have developed a comprehensive and user-friendly online analysis platform, BestopCloud (http://cloud.bestopcell.com:3838/BestopCloud). BestopCloud consists of 9 modules, which integrates the current open-source standardized methods in the single-cell field and can perform in-depth data processing, analysis and visualization. Within each module, BestopCloud supports a variety of parameter settings and outputs publishable chart files. While maintaining the independence of modules (each module can input data and be used separately), BestopCloud supports flexible module association, breaking the conventional sequential process (Sequential Process) and making data utilization more efficient. In short, BestopCloud allows users to analyze scRNA-seq data more deeply and flexibly. The platform fills the main gap between wet experimental research and dry experimental research.
description: Includes the Count matrix file from the GSE149655 dataset, as well as the output files obtained by analyzing the data using the BestopCloud modules.

description: We have studied the physical and chemical properties of a quiescent starless core L1521E with various molecular lines. It is found that there exists a compact dense core traced by the H^13CO^+, HN^13C, CCS, and HC_3N lines; their distributions have a single peak at the same position. The core radius is as small as 0.031 pc, whereas the H_2 density at the peak position is as high as (1.3-5.6)times10^5 cm^-3. Although the density is high enough to excite the inversion transitions of NH_3, these lines are found to be very faint in L1521E. The distributions of NH_3 and CCS seem to be different from those of well-studied starless cores, L1498 and L1544, where the distribution of CCS shows a shell-like structure while that of NH_3 is concentrated at the center of the core. Abundances of carbon-chain molecules are higher in L1521E than the other dark cloud cores, and especially those of sulfur-bearing molecules C_nS are comparable to the cyanopolyyne peak of TMC-1. Our results suggest that L1521E would be in a very early stage of physical and chemical evolution.

description: Under the background of the financial crisis, expanding domestic demand for stimulating economic role is self-evident. As China has a large rural population, increasing rural residents' income and expanding their consumer demand is becoming the pinnacle of expanding domestic demand. The urban residents have good conditions than more countryside dwellers. Since few articles are dedicated to the research of this group, this article selects rural residents of Xi’an as object, uses AIDS model to analyze the consumption structure of rural residents, and draw the conclusion that increasing cultural recreation, medical and health spending is the main way to increase their incomes.

subject: Recommendations

description: The farmers' income growth in Rongchang County is mainly from the family business and wage income, accounting for 55.4% and 37.9%, respectively; the growth rate of rural per capita net income increased from 12.4% in 2005 to 17.6% in 2010, close to or higher than Chongqing's average but lower than the level of adjacent districts and counties such as Yongchuan; the absolute value of net income in Rongchang increased from 3426 yuan to 6755 yuan, less than in other districts and counties similar to Yongchuan in Chongqing, far less than in the other three municipalities (up to 6991 yuan). The slow farmers' income growth is affected by multiple factors such as overall low quality of the rural labor force, county industrial structure and difficulties in transferring a large number of rural surplus labor forces. It is necessary to improve the quality of farmers, strive to adjust the agricultural structure, and develop rural cooperative economic organizations, in order to increase farmers' income.

description: The process of fire stations site selection is always traditionally based on the experience of a few people in some special organizations or with regard to available facilities in cities. On the other hand, the proper distribution of fire stations is essential in order to provide relief to vulnerable areas in times of crisis. In the meantime, the correct, accurate and scientific site selection of the fire stations will be an important step in improving the relief operation during the crisis. In this research, a hybrid model has been developed based on Network Analysis and Set Covering Location Problem (SCLP) for the site selection of fire stations in Tehran, Iran. At first, the areas that are covered by the 3-minute standard time of 112 existing fire stations were found on Tehran road network. Then the operational areas of the fire stations were divided into 308 sub-areas and the centers of these areas were considered as demand points in order to respond within the 3-minute standard. By examining the coverage matrix for 112 fire stations, 86% of the areas were covered by standard relief time. By solving the scenario, 29 sub-areas were designed to achieve 100% coverage of sub-areas.

subject: Villagers’ self-governance system

description: Farmers in traditional China have formed the cultural psychology of being reluctant to move from native land and hate to change during the long-term closed production and life. This has exerted negative effect on the values cultivation of farmers today, who possess weak democratic consciousness, low legal spirit and cultural quality as well as strong antagonistic psychology. Measures should be carried out to cultivate their modern values. Firstly, construction of villagers’ self-governance system should be stressed. Secondly, political socialization should be perfected to improve farmers’ political culture. Furthermore, channels of political participation should be widened in order to gradually promote the ordered political participation of farmers.

description: The study of organoids, artificially grown cell aggregates with the functionality and small-scale anatomy of real organs, is one of the most active areas of research in biology and biophysics, yet the basic physical origins of their different morphologies remain poorly understood. Here we propose a mechanistic theory of small-organoid morphologies. Using a 3D surface-tension-based vertex model, we reproduce the characteristic shapes, ranging from branched and budded structures to invaginated shapes. We find that the formation of branched morphologies relies strongly on junctional activity, enabling temporary aggregations of topological defects in cell packing. To elucidate our numerical results, we develop an effective elasticity theory, which allows one to estimate the apico-basal polarity from the organoid-scale modulation of cell height. Our work provides a generic interpretation of the observed small-organoid morphologies, highlighting the role of physical factors such as the differential surface tension, cell rearrangements, and tissue growth.

description: T0 detector, based on Multi-gap Resistive Plate Chambers (MRPC) technology, is one of the key components in the External Target Experiment. Through precision measurements of the MRPC signals, timing of the beam impact on target can be obtained and used as the start time for other detectors. A readout electronics system was designed for the T0 detector. Based on the NINO ASIC, front-end-electronics (FEE) circuits which can achieve high precision leading-edge discrimination and Charge-to-Time Conversion (QTC) were designed for the internal and external MRPCs of the T0 detector. The output pulse of the FEE is then digitized by high precision time digitization modules with Time-to-Digital Converters (TDCs), trigger matching and other control logic integrated within Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) devices. To evaluate the functionality and performance, we also conducted a series of tests of the electronics. Results indicate that the system functions well and the time precision of the electronics is better than 21 ps, which satisfies the application requirement.
