Spiroplasma

description: Prevalence of Spiroplasma
The presence of Spiroplasma in wild populations of tsetse flies was assessed using a PCR-based method to amplify part of the 16S rRNA gene. Positive samples were identified based on the observed amplicon band size in the electrophoresis gel for all tsetse species. Sequencing of the respective PCR amplicons revealed that Spiroplasma infection was only confirmed in G. tachinoides (N = 41) and G. f. fuscipes (N = 6), both belonging to the palpalis subgenus (Table 1). In the case of G. brevipalpis, G. m. morsitans, G. m. submorsitans, G. pallidipes, G. p. gambiensis, and G. p. palpalis, the amplified sequence belonged to different microbial species, primarily Bacillus cereus, Bacillus thuringiensis, Enterococcus cecorum, and some uncultured bacteria (Data not shown).
The PCR results indicated an overall Spiroplasma prevalence of 39.27% in G. tachinoides. The prevalence did not differ significantly between Burkina Faso, Ghana, and the laboratory colony (Χ 2 = 2.12, df = 2, and p = 0.34), with Burkina Faso and Ghana showing a prevalence rate of 46.56% and 52.94%, respectively (Table 2). However, a significant variation in Spiroplasma prevalence was found across the various sampling locations (Χ 2 = 22.61, df = 8, and p = 0.003) (Table 2 and Figs. 2 and 3). Specifically, there was a significant difference in prevalence between the two sampling locations in Burkina Faso (Χ 2 = 6.459, df = 1, and p = 0.01), with a higher prevalence observed in Folonzo. Similarly, a significant difference was found between the prevalence rate in different locations in Ghana (Χ 2 = 11.955, df = 5, and p = 0.03), with the highest prevalence observed in the Mortani region (98.44%), where 100% of the female flies were infected. Conversely, the lowest prevalence of Spiroplasma was recorded in Kumpole, Ghana (25%), with male flies showing no sign of infection (Table 2, Figs. 2 and 3).

Subjects: Homicide; Violent crime; Police; Brazil

description: Official crime data is generally limited by restrictions of quality and access. Rio de Janeiro in Brazil provides an example of the problems involved in measuring the homicide rate in a developing country, including the lack of proper crime reporting and the use of separate categories to reduce the number of homicides in official crime reports. Using longitudinal data, we can explain differences between the official homicide rate and alternative calculations that consider otherwise neglected categories. The interests of politicians, police, business, and citizens contribute to the difficulties in measuring and controlling homicides in the city.

Subjects: classificationCode: 401902
subject: Geomechanics and resources geotechnical engineering

description: Proppants are crucial for effective stimulation of unconventional geo-energy reservoirs through hydraulic fracturing. This thesis delves into proppant transport within hydraulic fractures, filling gaps in existing research such as the impact of fracture roughness and the application of Supercritical Carbon Dioxide (Sc-CO2) and micro-proppants. Utilizing state-of-the-art Computational Fluid Dynamics-Discrete Element Method (CFD-DEM) simulations coupled with a novel experimental setup, it investigates variations in fracture morphologies, operational parameters, and proppant characteristics. This research significantly advances the understanding of proppant behaviour, providing valuable insights for the optimization of hydraulic fracturing processes and enhancement of hydrocarbon extraction from unconventional reservoirs.

description: Prevalence of single and multiple Trypanosoma infections
The screening of the flies indicated the presence of different taxa of Trypanosoma, including Tc (Trypanosoma congolense type: Savanah, Kilifi, Forest), Tv (Trypanosoma vivax), and Tz (Trypanozoon sp.: Trypanosoma brucei brucei, Trypanosoma brucei gambiense, Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense, Trypanosoma evansi). The overall prevalence of single or multiple Trypanosoma infections among all tested flies was 69.97% (457/653). The prevalence of Trypanosoma varied significantly between countries (Χ 2 = 37.18, df = 1, and p <0.001) and locations (Χ 2 = 452.21, df = 7, and p <0.001). In Ghana, the prevalence was significantly higher than in Burkina Faso, at 86.38% and 20.76%, respectively (Table 2 and Fig. 3). In Ghana, the prevalence varied significantly with location (Χ 2 = 125.43, df = 5, and p <0.001), with a prevalence of 100% in some locations such as Sissili Bridge, Fumbissi, Kumpole, and Grogro (Fig. 3 and Supplementary Table 3).
The most frequently found trypanosomes were Tz and Tv, with a prevalence of 30.2% and 22.42%, respectively. However, only Tz varied significantly with country (Χ 2 = 7.54, df = 1, and p = 0.006) and location (Χ 2 = 185.82, df = 7, and p <0.001). Trypanosoma congolense was found in the two locations in Burkina Faso (Comoe at 2.37% and Folonzo at 2.00%), and only in one location in Ghana (Walewale (2.87%)). Its prevalence varied significantly with country (Χ 2 = 6.426, df = 1, and p = 0.01) and location (Χ 2 = 34.97, df = 7, and p <0.001).
The TvTz multiple infection was the most prevalent in the samples (11.22%). In Ghana, no TcTv double infections were found, while in Burkina Faso, no triple infections TcTvTz were found. The prevalence of the double infections varied only according with location (Χ 2 = 245.15, df = 7, and p <0.001) (Fig. 3 and TcTz Supplementary Table 3).

Publisher: name: Institute for Interdisciplinary Conflict and Violence Research, Bielefeld University
Year: 2012
Subjects: (de)radicalisation; violence; non-state armed groups; decision-making; leadership; cohesion

description: Although non-state armed groups are primary stakeholders in contemporary political conflicts, there has been little research into their members’ perspectives on internal factors shaping radicalisation and de-radicalisation. State and international actors often assume that bringing rebel leaders to the negotiating table or “converting” them to peaceful politicians means weakening, splitting, or dismantling militant structures. This paper re-evaluates those assumptions in the light of rebel leaders’ own accounts of internal organisational dynamics before, during, and after political conflicts and peace settlements. Participatory action research with “insider experts” from armed movements in Northern Ireland, Kosovo, Nepal, Aceh, El Salvador, Colombia, and South Africa reveals insiders’ analysis of leadership and organisational dynamics during armed conflict and political talks and highlights the rational decision-making process whereby proactive leaders constantly (re)assess and adjust their tactics (from unarmed to armed and vice versa) as the strategic environment evolves. Horizontal and vertical communication between members is critical for enabling collective ownership of transformation processes from violent insurgency to peaceful transition and preventing internal splits and disaffection during peace negotiations. The claim that rebel organisations should be dismantled as quickly as possible during peace processes is found to be dubious, highlighting instead the importance of retaining cohesive coordination and communication structures during volatile post-war transitions.

Subjects: Political Islam, Conflict, Radicalism, Indonesia

description: Indonesia provides a fruitful case study of differences between radicalization processes in liberal and authoritarian regimes. Political Science hereby tends to emphasize regime type as the determinant of Islamist political strategy (radical, militant or moderate) and therefore as the main explanatory factor for radicalization processes. Although this is true of the role of Islamists in various Middle Eastern countries, where electoral participation has moderated political programs and strategies, it is of little relevance to Indonesia. The democratic opening in 1998 provided Islamists with new opportunities to participate in electoral politics, and even become co-opted by formally “secular” forces, but at the same time opened up spaces for militant, radical Islamist groups. Whereas radical Islam faced severe state repression under Suharto’s New Order, we now find a highly ambiguous relationship between the state and radical Islamists, expressed in operational terms as a parallelism of repression and cooptation. This article tries to make sense of the relationship between the post-authoritarian state and radical Islam in Indonesia by transcending the institution-centered understanding of the role of Islam through an examination of the configurations of social forces that have determined the shape, scope, and practices of radical Islam within Indonesia’s new experiment with democracy.

description: Two U.S. studies report a differential effect of identity centrality and in-group superiority on reactions to in-group victimization and in-group harm-doing. Study1 (N = 80) found that higher identity centrality predicted less justification for freely-recalled in-group victim events, whereas higher in-group superiority predictedmore justification for freely-recalled in-group harm-doing events. Study 2 (N = 105) reexamined these findings in specific contexts of historical victimization(Pearl Harbor) and harm-doing (Hiroshima and Nagasaki), finding that in-group superiority was a predictor of reactions to historical in-group harm-doing(justification, emotional reactions, importance of events), whereas centrality was a predictor of reactions to historical in-group victimization.

description: Abstract

Accessibility is about design that is inclusive and specific to disabled users, such as your colleagues, students, customers, or peers. If you make grant proposals, slide decks, or communications materials, do you know how to make them accessible? Increasing the accessibility of presentations and documents is important, but can be overwhelming – where to begin? Luckily, within the Microsoft Office suite (Word, Powerpoint, Excel), there are built-in Accessibility Checkers and in this session we will show you how to use them efficiently. We will also cover other applications, such as the Google suite of programs.

Presented at the DANS Open Day 2024, November 14th, 2024 in Den Haag (Netherlands).

Note:

The slide deck is distributed the same across three file formats: .pptx, .odp, and .pdf. The .pptx format is the most (web) accessible while the .odp format is the most open without retaining several accessibility features - both formats are subject to formatting issues. The .pdf serves as a stable visual version with accessible features. In case of format issues, the .pdf file would be considered the reference file.

description: A summary of current knowledge on successful responses to cyberbullying differentiating between three different response domains: reducing risks, combatting the problem, and buffering negative impact. A systematic literature search yielded thirty-six relevant studies, most of which report findings regarding general prevention strategies (e.g., anti-bullying policies or cybersafety strategies) and the use of coping strategies such as seeking support, responding (retaliation or confronting), technical solutions, and avoidant and emotion-focussed strategies. Whilst a few studies report perceived success, very few measure the success of the strategies in relation to risks and outcomes. There is a clear lack of evidence concerning successful responses.

description: Bullying prevention programs have been shown to be generally effective in reducing bullying and victimization. However, the effects are relatively small in randomized experiments and greater in quasi-experimental and age-cohort designs. Programs that are more intensive and of longer duration (for both children and teachers) are more effective, as are programs containing more components. Several program components are associated with large effect sizes, including parent training or meetings and teacher training. These results should inform the design and evaluation of anti-bullying programs in the future, and a system of accreditation of effective programs.

description: Interaction between Spiroplasma and Trypanosoma
Prevalence of co-infections
The results of the analysis showed that 12.56% of the flies were infected both with Spiroplasma and Trypanosoma, regardless of country, location, and sex. However, the prevalence of single infections of Spiroplasma (35.83%) was higher than that of Trypanosoma (17.46%) (Fig. 4). The association between Spiroplasma and Trypanosoma infections was analyzed using the Cochran-Manthel-Haenzel (CMH) test and chi-square test. Across all samples, the CMH test showed a significant deviation from independence between the two infections (Χ 2 MH = 5.19, df = 1, p = 0.02). The chi-square test confirmed that the independence between Spiroplasma and Trypanosoma infections was significant with a Bonferroni correction of OE = 0.006 (Χ 2 = 9.85, p = 0.03). However, when considering countries, only in Ghana the chi-square test did show a significant deviation from independence between the two microbial infections (Χ 2 = 13.004, p <0.001) (Table 3 and Supplementary Table 4).

Subjects: Anti-Americanism, prejudice, qualitative research, national identity, speech acts, family resemblance

description: A contribution to the ongoing debate on how anti-Americanism can be adequately conceptualized and how such prejudice can be distinguished from legitimate criticism, arguing that part of these conceptual problems arise from a too narrow focus on defining anti-Americanism and the use of standardized empirical operationalizations. Such approaches exhibit severe limitations in grasping the flexibility of the phenomenon in everyday discourse and often underestimate or ignore the interpretive aspect involved in identifying utterances as anti-American prejudice. Alternatively, a performative approach is proposed, understanding anti-Americanism as a network of speech acts bound by family resemblance rather than identical features. In combination with qualitative empirical research methods such a conceptualization is especially suited to account for the flexible, situated use of anti-American utterances. At the same time it grants reflexivity to the research concept, in the sense of a close description of the scientific application of the notion of anti-Americanism. Two empirical examples from an interview study on anti-American speech in Germany illustrate the potential of such an approach, providing an insight into how anti-Americanism is incorporated into the construction and expression of racist and revisionist national identifications in everyday discourse.

description: Co-infection and the density of Spiroplasma, Trypanosoma, and Wigglesworthia
The density of Spiroplasma, Trypanosoma, and Wigglesworthia was evaluated using relative qPCR based on the single (Sp + / T —; Sp — / T +) and double co-infection (Sp + / T +) status. As expected, the results showed that flies infected with Spiroplasma (Sp + / T — and Sp + / T +) had a significantly higher density of Spiroplasma compared to those not infected (Sp — / T +), which indicated that flies classified as uninfected by conventional PCR showed lower infection rates with qPCR. However, there was no significant difference in the density of Spiroplasma between flies infected with Spiroplasma and not infected with Trypanosoma (Sp + / T —) and those infected with both (Sp + / T +) (Fig. 5A). Furthermore, flies with double co-infection (Sp + / T +) had a significantly higher density of trypanosomes than those with single co-infection (Sp + / T — and Sp — / T +) (Fig. 5B). However, no significant difference was found in the density of Wigglesworthia in the three categories of co-infection (Fig. 5C).

L'aumento dell'ostilità popolare contro l'UE rende attuale l'assetto con cui dovremo vivere per un po ', prima che le modifiche al trattato siano nuovamente possibili. Ahimè, l'attuale assetto è un'unione composta da paesi sovrani che competono sotto regole comuni, piuttosto che cooperare sotto accordi flessibili.

This short note introduces the current issueof the Review, with the aim of opening a debate on Europe after the Brexit. Even if many saw the euro as a step towards political integration, there is now confusion and uncertainty over the final aims and objectives of the EU. Increasing popular hostility against the EU makes the current set-up one with which we will have to live for a while, before Treaty changes will be possible again. Alas, the current set-up is a union made up of sovereign countries competing under common rules, rather than cooperating under flexible arrangements.

description: Genetic variation and phylogenetic analysis of Spiroplasma in wild G. tachinoides
Among the 35 samples sequenced, 14 sequences from Comoe in Burkina Faso, two from the CIRDES colony, and two from Walewale in Ghana were used for the analysis. For the four genes used for the sequencing, 2,885 base pairs of sequence were generated. The comparison of the sequences showed a global nucleotide mutation rate of 0.06% with two SNPs (Table 4). These two SNPs were found on the parE gene (1 SNP /745 bp) and rpoB gene (1 SNP /1455). None of these substitutions were non-synonymous and the percentage of amino-acid mutations was 0.40% (1/248) for the parE gene and 0.20% (1/485) for the rpoB gene. For the parE gene, the mutation resulted in the replacement of isoleucine to valine, but for the rpoB gene from phenylalanine to serine. All samples from all locations showed the same profile for the 16S rRNA and fruR genes. In Burkina Faso and Ghana, two genotypes were found, while only one was detected for CIRDES (Tables 5 and 6). Three different haplotypes were found in the sampling areas with a specific haplotype for the CIRDES colony and Burkina Faso and Ghana sharing the same haplotypes (Table 6, Fig. 6).

Nevertheless, many adolescents with T1D are not meeting recommended physical activity levels and struggle with implementing appropriate management strategies around exercise.AimsTo investigate in adolescents with T1D: 1) physical activity levels; 2) management strategies utilised around physical activity; and 3) barriers and facilitators to physical activity engagement.MethodsPhysical activity levels were assessed using the PAQ-C and PAQ-A questionnaires. A cut-off score of 2.75 was adopted to classify participants as meeting the recommended ≥60 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous daily physical activity. Semi-structured interviews with 16 adolescents were conducted, followed by NVivo-assisted thematic analysis.ResultsThe mean PAQ-score was 2.7(SD±0.77), with 25% adhering to the recommended physical activity guidelines. Themes related to management strategies were explored, including blood glucose monitoring, insulin-related, exercise-related, and nutrition-related strategies. Identified barriers included limited T1D management knowledge, negative social impact, difficulty with technology, poor planning and organisation, individual physiological responses, and the burden of T1D management. Facilitators included the ability to optimally manage the condition, having supportive people who understand and service supports.ConclusionsThis study identified barriers and facilitators to managing blood glucose levels around and during physical activity in adolescents with T1D. This provides clinical insights into the management strategies utilised around physical activity and factors affecting participation that can inform the future promotion of physical activity in this population. In this cohort, two-thirds did not meet the recommended physical activity levels. Physical activity participation was primarily influenced by adolescents' confidence and ability to manage their condition around exercise. Exercise promotion strategies should focus on supporting optimal exercise management patterns for adolescents with T1D.

title: Violence Research from North Africa to South Asia: A Historical and Structural Overview
Creators: name: Wilke, Boris

Publisher: name: Institute for Interdisciplinary Conflict and Violence Research, Bielefeld University
Year: 2011
Subjects: Violence Research; North Africa; South Asia

description: This is a historical and sociological overview of violence and violence research in and on North Africa, West Asia, and South Asia, considering only studies for a global audience. The main focus is on political violence, with a brief look at religious and communal violence, youth violence, and domestic and gendered violence. These regions have been consistently affected by political violence for many decades, the main source of which seems to be the ongoing state formation process, as well as social transformation in general. The literature on violence is dominated by international debates, at times with little regard to realities in the ground. It would be highly desirable for scholars from North Africa, West Asia and South Asia to play a more active role in research and debate.

Publisher: name: Institute for Interdisciplinary Conflict and Violence Research, Bielefeld University
Year: 2012
Subjects: African youth, exclusion, Nigeria, gender, conflict, violence

description: This is a broad examination of the issue of youth violence in twenty-first-century Africa, looking at the context within which a youth culture of violence has evolved and attempting to understand the underlining discourses of hegemony and power that drive it. The article focuses specifically on youth violence as a political response to the dynamics of (dis)empowerment, exclusion, and economic crisis and uses (post)conflict states like Liberia, Sierra Leone, and Nigeria to explain not just the overall challenge of youth violence but also the nature of responses that it has elicited from established structures of authority. Youth violence is in many ways an expression of youth agency in the context of a social and economic system that provides little opportunity.

description: Background and Objective: Palliative radiotherapy (RT) and systemic immuno- or targeted therapy both play significant roles in the treatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Concurrent application of these therapies is increasing, however, no guidelines exist regarding the combination of systemic therapy with RT. This narrative review summarises the existing literature reporting toxicity observed after concurrent treatment with RT and immuno- or targeted therapeutic agents commonly used in HCC. Methods: The PubMed database was searched for studies published between 2011 and 2023 reporting toxicity data on patients treated concurrently with RT and targeted agents used in HCC. Due to the paucity of relevant literature in HCC, the inclusion criteria were expanded to include non-HCC cohorts treated with targeted therapies commonly used in advanced HCC. Key Content and Findings: Sixty-seven articles were included in this review. Twenty-two articles reported combined RT with sorafenib, one with regorafenib, 22 with bevacizumab, three with lenvatinib and 19 with immune checkpoint inhibitors. Significant findings include a high rate severe hepatotoxicity with combination RT and sorafenib, ranging from 0–19% with liver stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) and 3–18% with conventionally fractionated liver RT. Severe gastrointestinal (GI) toxicities including perforation and ulceration were seen with combination bevacizumab and RT, ranging from 0–27% in the acute setting and 0–23% in the late setting. The safety profile of combination immune checkpoint blockade agents and RT was similar to that seen in monotherapy. Conclusions: Existing data suggests that combination RT and targeted therapy given the risk of severe adverse events including hepatotoxicity and GI toxicity. There is an urgent need for future studies specifically examining the impact of combination therapy in HCC patients to guide clinical decision-making in the evolving landscape of immune- and targeted therapies.

Subjects: early intervention; prevention; conduct disorder; dissemination; fidelity

description: A case study reviewing the establishment of the evidence-based Incredible Years programme in Wales, describing the rationale for selecting the programme, the outcomes achieved in Wales, and the influence on policy leading to a Wales-wide dissemination strategy. The UK context features a growing trend towards evidence-based anti-violence services and significant increases in funding for early intervention. Factors that contributed to the success of this project included careful selection of a programme with evidence, establishing a local evidence base for it, ensuring that information was disseminated to government and service providers, and the need to build in a sustainability plan. The biggest challenge, lack of leader time and resources to deliver the programme effectively, is explored and solutions from Wales, including leader feedback surveys and manager training days are described.
