description: Biopharmaceutical research relies on animal cells or immortalized human cell lines representing human system to test drug efficacy or toxicity. These functional cell models are robust and reproducible, they still fail to represent or mimic the human cellular system, posing an enormous challenge to precise and efficient drug discovery for human or animal disorders. Tissue culture system offers an alternative technique to isolate the cells of interest. However, the major limitation is that they dedifferentiate quickly and possess only limited cell divisions in vitro. It is therefore not surprising that the clinical outcome of pharmaceutical compound remains low as animal models may not truly representing or lack adequate similarities to the human cell system. To circumvent these problems, embryonic stem cells offer far reaching implications, allowing us to generate a variety of fully differentiated cells, rendering an efficient and diverse tissue population for various pharmaceutical research purposes on the road to drug discovery. Stem cell-based therapy is a 21st century approach of therapeutic intervention which epitomizes a shift from conventional symptomatic treatment strategy to addressing the root cause of the disease process. This is especially a hope for the patients suffering from diseases such as Alzheimer, diabetes, ‘00b ./ 7+\]990-++/0-pplp[lyocardial infarction and other diseases which have always been considered as incurable. Moreover, stem cells provide excellent in vitro disease models for drug development. There are more than 100 different diseases that have been treated with stem cell transplantation. The first application of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in 1950 showed that stem cells could be used as drugs to treat diseases.

Coercion Experience Enhances Evasion Abilities in Swordtail Females

description: Coercive mating tactics have been observed in many different species, and are indicative of intense conflict between the sexes— when males and females differ in their reproductive goals, mating strategies which are beneficial to one sex may be detrimental to the other. One such species is the poeciliid fish Xiphophorus nigrensis; but the species' three distinct male genotypes differ in the level of sexual conflict they impose on their females. Each male type exhibits a different mating strategy — coercion, courting, or both — which in turn requires a different behavioral response from a female in order to maximize her fitness. Most notably, the coercive males’ frequent, forceful mating attempts can prove extremely costly, requiring female counter-strategy. Female poeciliids are able to reduce sexual harassment by shoaling with other females (Dadda 2015); and some studies suggest that female poeciliid brains grow larger when under strong sexual conflict pressure (Buechel et. al. 2016). In this study, we tested X. nigrensis females that were raised with coercion-only, courtship-only or both male tactics in a coercion evasion assay. Using Ethovision tracking software, we quantified these differentially reared females’ abilities to evade a coercive male. To date, no previous studies have examined the effects of courtship and coercion on female cognition and behavior directly within the same species. We found that females raised in a courtship-only environment were observed within close proximity to a small coercive male more frequently than females raised in a coercion-only environment. These data reveal important information concerning the effects that experience with each distinct mating strategy may have on female cognition and behavior.

Effect of Alternating Pressure Overlay on Skin Blood Flow and Interface Pressure in Spinal Cord Injury
Creators: name: Purohit, Rudri M
Publisher: name: University of Illinois at Chicago
Year: 2022
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Pressure injuries are serious complications that are difficult and expensive to treat. Preventative strategies, such as alternating pressure mattress has been prescribed to patients with pressure injury in the hospital setting to prevent recurrence. However, the underlying mechanism of alternating pressure (AP) on tissue tolerance to ischemia is not explored to a full extent. The main purpose of this study was to investigate the protective mechanism of alternating pressure overlay on load-bearing tissue like sacrum in people with spinal cord injury (SCI). We hypothesized that the low-profile AP overlay would redistribute the interface pressure and subsequently increase the skin blood flow (SBF) to the sacral area when lying on top of an operating room (OR) pad. A secondary aim was to investigate if AP overlay could be used as a preconditioning strategy for weight-bearing skin at the sacrum. We hypothesize that after preconditioning with AP overlay, the interface pressure would remain unchanged during supine lying on OR, but SBF would increase. A repeated measures design was utilized on 15 adults with SCI. All the individuals underwent three protocols: supine lying on (1) OR pad only for 40 minutes (control), (2) OR pad with AP overlay for 40 minutes, and (3) OR pad only (AP-OR) for 40 minutes after AP (protocol 2). Outcome measures included interface pressure and SBF at sacrum. For the primary aim, we found that the peak interface pressure during AP-deflation (51.47±30.18 AU) was significantly lower than that during AP-inflation (89.27±53.92 AU) and OR (control protocol) (114.13±60.97 AU). The averaged SBF during AP-deflation (15.54±15.33 AU) was significantly higher than that during inflation (12.65±12.45 AU) and OR (control) (11.96±10.26 AU). For secondary aim, we found that peak interface pressure during AP-OR (104.62±58.17 AU) was significantly lower than that during OR (control) protocol (114.13±60.97 AU), and SBF during AP-OR (15.78±15.82 AU) was significantly higher than that during OR (control) (11.96±10.26 AU). Findings of this study suggested that alternating pressure overlay is an effective strategy to redistribute interface pressure and subsequently improves tissue perfusion at the weight-bearing area in people prone to pressure injury. Further study is warranted in other population at risk of pressure injuries

description: In this paper we present MATor: a framework for rigorously assessing the degree of anonymity in the Tor network. The framework explicitly addresses how user anonymity is impacted by real-life characteristics of actually deployed Tor, such as its path selection algorithm, Tor consensus data, and the preferences and the connections of the user. The anonymity assessment is based on rigorous anonymity bounds that are derived in an extension of the AnoA framework (IEEE CSF 2013). We show how to apply MATor on Tor's publicly available consensus and server descriptor data, thereby realizing the first real-time anonymity monitor. Based on experimental evaluations of this anonymity monitor on Tor Metrics data, we propose an alternative path selection algorithm that provides stronger anonymity guarantees without decreasing the overall performance of the Tor network.

Type locality: “ Vicinity of Murucusa, Municipio Petit (11°02′N, 69°35′W), 550 m asl., spurs of Sierra de San Luís, Estado Falcón, Venezuela.”
Distribution: Region 2. NW Venezuela in Falcón and Lara States.
Remarks: Phyllomedusa neildi appears as a sister species to P. trinitatis in Faivovich et al. (2010), suggesting it could be conspecific, despite striking morphological differences in size and call structure (Barrio-Amorós 2006b). This can be due to a clinal variation or adaptation to xeric situations. However, direct comparison of continental and Trinidadian populations of P. trinitatis must be done (in progress by CBA and collaborators).

Problems with Assessing Student Autonomy in Higher Education, a new perspective and a role for mentoring.pdf
Creators: name: Holmes, Andrew G D

Year: 2022
Subjects: Education

description: The paper explores, from a conceptual basis, the inherent tensions in assessing student autonomy in higher education. The author argues that, despite the development of student autonomy being a key aim of higher education, there are problems in identifying with any level of precision what it is, and that its assessment is highly problematic. An alternative perspective is provided that, with the support of mentoring processes, allows for authentic assessment. The paper is intended to stimulate debate amongst university management and academic practitioners in higher education. This is a conceptual paper considering the problematic nature of learner autonomy and the inherent difficulties in assessing it, with a practical potential solution proposed.

description: Phyllomedusa tarsius (Cope 1868)
Holotype: USNM 6652; lost.
Type locality: “Rio Napo, or Upper Amazon, below the mouth of the former” (Loreto, Perú).
Distribution: Regions 1, 3. Widely distributed inAmazon Basin, in southwestern Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Brazil, with isolated populations in Cordillera Oriental of Colombia and Venezuela. The Guyanan Phyllomedusa tarsius (Forlani et al. 2012) must be compared with P. trinitatis (see discussion in Barrio-Amorós 2009b). In Venezuela, known only from a few localities in eastern foothills of the Andes. See list of localities and distribution map in Barrio-Amorós (2009b).
Remarks: We really doubt presence of Phyllomedusa tarsius sensu stricto in Venezuela. Previous reports from southeastern Venezuela were meant to be P. trinitatis (Barrio-Amorós 2009b) or are very distinct from P. tarsius sensu stricto, as individuals from the Andean piedmont reported by La Marca (1996) and Markezich (1998) are much smaller and the iris pattern is much less reticulated than on Ecuadorian (near type locality) specimens (Image 229b). This could indicate a putative new species of the tarsius group in western Venezuela.

Distribution: Region 2. Trinidad and Venezuela. In Venezuela, distributed across north of the country, to the east of Falcón State. Not known from Los Llanos.
Remarks: Barrio-Amorós (2009b) compared those populations called Phyllomedusa tarsius from the Venezuelan Guayana (reported by Duellman and Trueb 1986) with P. trinitatis, and found no significant morphological differences. Thus, the Guianan populations are referred as P. trinitatis (see contrary view in Señaris et al. 2014), pending more investigation of the Andean piedmont populations named tarsius. Recently reported P. tarsius from Guyana (Forlani et al. 2012) must be compared to P. trinitatis. See comments under P. neildi and P. tarsius.

description: We assessed muscle mass and strength before and after parathyroid surgery in a group of patients with hyperparathyroidism. Our study revealed significant decline in muscle strength, thickness and mass (assessed by ultrasonography) in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism, which improved after parathyroidectomy and achievement of cure. This improvement was primarily predicted by reductions in serum calcium, rather than reductions in serum parathyroid hormone levels. The item deposited herein contains supplementary tables primarily related to statistics of ROC curve analysis and generalized linear model for factors influencing the changes in muscle mass and strength.

description: An overview of the challenges being addressed by the New European Wind Atlas (NEWA) consortium is presented together with the most important insights from the research activities carried out during the first half of the project. This €14-million EU project aims at producing a more reliable characterization of wind resources across Europe through a high resolution wind atlas and an experimental database that will lead to a significant reduction of uncertainties. Experimental campaigns of unprecedented scale and coverage have been conducted to map a wide range of terrain and wind conditions. This is the basis for the development of a model chain that blends relevant atmospheric scales from mesoscale to microscale. A seamless database of wind characteristics and associated uncertainties across Europe at a horizontal resolution of 100 m and representative for a 30-year period will be produced following a probabilistic wind atlas approach.

Holotype: KU 96150.
Type locality: One km west-southwest of the junction of the Río Mono and the Rio Tuira, Darien Province, Panama, 130 m.
Distribution: Region 6. Southern Panama, and Caribbean lowlands of Colombia, entering the Magdalena River Valley; in Venezuela, known from the Maracaibo Lake Basin.
Remarks: Species in the Phyllomedusa tarsius group (sensu Barrio-Amorós 2006 and Faivovich et al. 2010) are very difficult to distinguish among them. Barrio-Amorós (2009b) comment on the possibility that P. venusta is conspecific with P. trinitatis, as the only reliable character to differentiate them is the length of the parotoid glands, a variable character influenced by reproductive or hormonal condition.

description: This report provides projections for the agricultural sector to 2031. Projections cover agricultural commodities, agricultural trade, and aggregate indicators of the sector, such as farm income. The projections are based on specific assumptions, including a consensus macroeconomic scenario, existing U.S. policy, and current international agreements. The Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018 is assumed to remain in effect through the projection period. The projections are one representative scenario for the agricultural sector and reflect a composite of model results and judgment-based analyses. The projections in this report were prepared using data through the October 2021 World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates (WASDE) report, except where noted otherwise. Macroeconomic assumptions were concluded in August 2021.

description: Arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) cause diseases of significant consequence to human and animal health. The aspect of the lifecycle that distinguishes an arbovirus from another viral group, is the requirement for replication in an arthropod vector and vertebrate host. Culicoides midges (order: Diptera; family: Ceratopogonidae) transmit several arboviral diseases of economic importance including bluetongue virus (BTV), a double-stranded RNA virus within the genus Orbivirus (family: Reoviridae). 

The ability of an arbovirus, such as BTV, to replicate, disseminate and be transmitted to a susceptible host is determined by the interaction between extrinsic factors, such as the titre of ingested virus, and intrinsic factors such as the particular viral and vector genotype. This process is poorly understood. Here, data are presented to address this, describing BTV infection and replication in a model species, Culicoides sonorensis.

The percentages of infected cells were objectively determined in insect tissues using automated image classification. BTV infected cells of the posterior midgut and the number of cells infected were viral strain and dose-dependent and correlated with infection rate. Virus replicated to high levels in the compound eyes, fat body and epithelial cells. The brain and other neural tissues were infected at later times tested, coinciding with the expected time of BTV transmission. Viral RNA and antigen were undetectable in the salivary glands and oocytes, but were detected at high prevalence in the mouthparts. 

These data show, for the first time, that Culicoides-borne arboviruses may exploit an alternative mechanism for transmission to a host than that used by mosquito-borne arboviruses. BTV may be transmitted directly from the mouthparts, without requiring the ability to replicate in the salivary glands.

description: Abstract

Employee engagement requires compensation and benefits, which are essential prerequisites. This involves both monetary rewards and intangible benefits, like recognition and other perks. The purpose of this study is to ascertain how rewards and remuneration affect employee engagement in the Libyan construction industry. The instrument for gathering data was a standardized questionnaire, which was given to 400 people at random in the chosen study area. However, only 310 of the 400 questionnaires that were distributed were actually retrieved, yielding a response rate of 77.5%. The statistical analysis software SPSS (version 23.0) was used to perform a range of statistical analyses. The findings show that rewards and compensation have a considerable positive impact on employee engagement, which in turn has a significant beneficial effect on project management success.

Holotype: EI 5311 (destroyed by fungus, Peixoto and Gomes 2007).
Type locality: “Vila Amazônia, Município de Parintins, Estado do Amazonas, Brasil.”
Distribution: Venezuela, Guyana, Suriname, and Brazil. In Venezuela, known only from a few localities in eastern Bolívar State.
Remarks: Specimens referred previously as Pipa aspera by La Marca (1992) are in fact P. arrabali (Trueb and Cannatella 1986). Both species very similar, differing only by narrow or wide separation of the nostrils sensu Trueb and Cannatella (1986). Both taxa are mostly sympatric, so validity of P. arrabali is doubtful, it could be a junior synonym of P. aspera despite the morphological support offered by Trueb and Masserin (2001).

title: On extension of rigid analytic objects
Creators: name: Lütkebohmert, Werner

Subjects: subject: 510 Mathematics

description: The identity principle for analytic functions predicts the value of an analytic function on a connected open subset at any point if the germ of the function is known at one given point. Therefore, in higher dimension, it can happen that the domain of definition of analytic functions on a connected open subset G of a polydisc Dn is larger than the given G. It depends on the geometry of G. For example, if G is the periphery of a 2-dimensional polydisc, then every analytic function on G is actually defined on the whole polydisc. Such a property is true for many other objects which are analytically defined, such as meromorphic functions, closed analytic subsets, vector bundles or coherent sheaves. The property of continuity depends on different parameters. The concavity of G inside a polydisc in relation to the dimension of the surrounding space plays an important role. The extension property of analytic objects depends on the balance between concavity on the one hand and on parameters of the analytic object such as the dimension of the closed analytic subset or the homological dimension of a coherent sheaf on the other hand. In complex analysis, these subjects were studied by Siu and Trautmann; for a systematic account, see [32]. In rigid geometry, John Tate has introduced a topology such that the identity principle holds for rigid analytic functions. Therefore, one can expect that statements on continuity are true in rigid geometry as well. In the first section, § 1, we present all the extension properties precisely and describe the shape of concavity for the different problems. The hape of a domain G inside a polydisc were suggested by Hans Grauert who advised W. Bartenwerfer around 1970 to study the problem for meromorphic functions. In complex analysis, these geometric constellations were well-known; cp. the thesis of Riemenschneider [29]. Then Bartenwerfer published a series of papers concerning such problems. Later on, the author contributed to these questions also. The hardest part is the extension problem for vector bundles which was solved in [27] by the author. In an unpublished paper, the author completed the picture by showing the continuity for coherent sheaves. The intention of this paper is to present a single organized treatment of the extension properties of analytic objects. Some results are known but spread across the literature and mostly hard to access, especially the results on extension of meromorphic functions and of analytic subsets. In this paper, we provide simplifications and improvements of their proofs. The results in Sections 5 and 7 are due to the author and published many years ago. Since they are so central, they should not be omitted in this treatment. The results in Section 8 are partly new. The appendix is certainly of more general interest since the given proofs bring the real arguments to light.

Exponential growth of private coastal infrastructure influenced by geography and race in South Carolina, USA

description: Homeowners in coastal environments often augment their access to estuarine ecosystems by building private docks on their personal property. Despite the commonality of docks, particularly in the Southeastern United States, few works have investigated their historical development, their distribution across the landscape, or the environmental justice dimensions of this distribution. In this study, we used historic aerial photography to track the abundance and size of docks across six South Carolina counties from the 1950s to 2016. Across our roughly 60-year study period, dock abundance grew by two orders of magnitude, the mean length of newly constructed docks doubled, and the cumulative length of docks ballooned from 34 to 560 km. Additionally, we drew on census data interpolated into consistent 2010 tract boundaries to analyze the racial and economic distribution of docks in 1994, 1999, 2011, and 2016. Racial composition, measured as the percentage of a tract's population that was White, positively correlated with dock abundance in each year. Median household income and dock abundance were only correlated in 2011. Taken together, these metrics indicate the growing desire for direct estuary access, however, that access does not appear to be equally spread across racial groups. Because docks enhance estuarine access and demarcate private property, our study provides longitudinal insights into environmental justice concerns related to disparate private property ownership. We found a persistent correlation between the racial characteristics of an area and dock abundance, strongly indicating that White South Carolinians have had disproportionately greater private water access for the past two decades.

description: Dock data was collected via historic aerial imagery of the South Carolina coast. Pre-1990 imagery was obtained from the University of South Carolina library, 1994 and 1999 imagery was obtained from the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources, and 2011 imagery was obtained from the US Department of Agriculture National Agriculture Imagery Program's Geospatial Data Gateway (https://nrcs.app.box.com/v/gateway/folder/19350726983). Census data was obtained from the NHGIS and Historical Housing Unit and Urbanization Database at the tract level using their crosswalk files to interpolate 1990 and 2000 data to 2010 tract geographies.

Docks were tracked across decades in ArcGIS Pro and statistical models were run using R.

description: Glycyrrhizic acid (GLA) is the most important bioactive constituent of licorize root and exhibits antiviral, antimicrobial, anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic, and antitumor activities. GLA has an amphiphilic nature consisting of two hydrophilic and one hydrophobic part, and its mechanism of action could be mediated by its incorporation into the membrane. Furthermore, GLA presents two different forms, protonated (GLA) and deprotonated (GLAD), and has been suggested that their location inside the membrane could be different. Since GLA could be a source against many types of diseases, we have localized the GLA molecule in the presence of a complex membrane and established the detailed interactions of GLA with lipids using all-atom molecular dynamics. Our outcomes sustain that GLA/GLAD tend to locate amid the CHOL oxygen atom and the phospholipid phosphates, preferably perpendicular to the membrane surface, increasing membrane fluidity. Interestingly, GLA and GLAD tend to be surrounded by specific phospholipids, different for each type of molecule. Outstandingly, both GLA and GLAD tend to spontaneously associate in solution forming aggregates, precluding them from inserting into the membrane and, therefore, interacting with it. Consequently, some of the biological properties of GLA/GLAD could be credited to the alteration of the membrane biophysical properties by interacting with specific lipids. However, the formation of an aggregate in solution could hinder its bioactive properties and should be considered a suited vehicle when prepared to be used in biological or clinical assays.
