title: An evaluation scheme for assessing the effectiveness of intersection movement assist (IMA) on improving traffic safety

description: <b>Objective</b>: Intersection movement assist (IMA) has been recognized as one of the prominent countermeasures to reduce angle crashes at intersections, which constitute 22% of total crashes in the United States. Utilizing vehicle-based sensors, vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V), and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communications, IMA offers extended vision to provide early warning for an imminent crash. However, most of IMA-related research implements their methods and strategies only in simulations, test tracks, or driving simulator studies that have quite a few assumptions and limitations and hence the effectiveness evaluations reported may not be transferable or comparable. <b>Methods</b>: This study seeks to develop a generalized evaluation scheme that can be used not only to assess the effectiveness of IMA on improving traffic safety at intersections but to facilitate comparisons across similar studies. The proposed evaluation scheme utilizes the concepts of traffic conflict in terms of time-to-collision (TTC) as a crash surrogate. This approach avoids the issue of having insufficient crash frequency data for system evaluation. To measure the effectiveness of IMA on reducing traffic conflicts, a relative risk is calculated for comparing the risk of with/without using the IMA. As a proof-of-concept study, this study applied the proposed evaluation scheme and reported the effectiveness of IMA on improving traffic safety in a field operation test (FOT). Seven test scenarios were conducted at 4 intersections, and a total of 40 participants were recruited to use the IMA for 6 months. <b>Results</b>: It was estimated that IMA users have 26% fewer conflicts with TTC less than 5 s and have 15% fewer conflicts with TTC less than 4 s. However, the results vary across different sites and different definitions of conflicts in terms of TTC. <b>Conclusions</b>: Overall, IMA is promising to effectively reduce angle crashes related to sight obstruction and has potential to reduce not only crash frequency but crash severity.

title: Role of branchiomotor neurons in controlling food intake of zebrafish larvae

description: The physical act of eating or feeding involves the coordinated action of several organs like eyes and jaws, and associated neural networks. Moreover, the activity of the neural networks controlling jaw movements (branchiomotor circuits) is regulated by the visual, olfactory, gustatory and hypothalamic systems, which are largely well characterized at the physiological level. By contrast, the behavioral output of the branchiomotor circuits and the functional consequences of disruption of these circuits by abnormal neural development are poorly understood. To begin to address these questions, we sought to evaluate the feeding ability of zebrafish larvae, a direct output of the branchiomotor circuits, and developed a qualitative assay for measuring food intake in zebrafish larvae at 7 days post-fertilization. We validated the assay by examining the effects of ablating the branchiomotor neurons. Metronidazole-mediated ablation of nitroreductase-expressing branchiomotor neurons resulted in a predictable reduction in food intake without significantly affecting swimming ability, indicating that the assay is robust. Laser-mediated ablation of trigeminal motor neurons resulted in a significant decrease in food intake, indicating that the assay is sensitive. Importantly, in larvae of a genetic mutant with severe loss of branchiomotor neurons, food intake was abolished. These studies establish a foundation for dissecting the neural circuits driving a motor behavior essential for survival.

title: Molecular phylogenetics and definition of the <i>Acrapex minima</i> Janse group (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae, Apameini, Sesamiina) with the description of four new species from the Afrotropics

description: Five morphologically similar species of <i>Acrapex</i> Hampson (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae, Noctuinae, Apameini), from sub-Saharan Africa are reviewed, including four new species that are described: <i>Acrapex mondogeneta</i> Le Ru <b>n. sp</b>., <i>A. mubale</i> Le Ru <b>n. sp</b>., <i>A. robe</i> Le Ru <b>n. sp</b>. and <i>A. rubona</i> Le Ru <b>n. sp</b>. These five species belong to a species complex that we hereby define as the <i>Acrapex minima</i> group. Host plants of three species are recorded; <i>Acrapex minima</i> is recorded for the first time on a host plant, <i>Digitaria natalensis</i> Stent; <i>A. mondogeneta</i> on <i>Hyparrhenia hirta</i> (L.) Stapf and <i>A. rubona</i> on <i>Imperata cylindrica</i> (L.) P. Beauv. We also conducted molecular phylogenetics (using both Bayesian inference and maximum likelihood) and molecular species delimitation analyses (Poisson tree processes) on a six gene multi-marker dataset (four mitochondrial and two nuclear gene fragments; 4582 nucleotides in length) of 42 specimens and 22 species, including 23 specimens from the <i>Acrapex minima</i> group. The results of the corresponding analyses support the monophyly of the group and the species status of the newly described taxa.

title: Ceriodaphnia affinis on different media.xlsx

description: This is metedata for the article "Application of the ADaM medium in toxicological investigations on the example of Ceriodaphnia affinis Lilljeborg". This research was made as a student work, and we will continue to investigate the differences between culture media for crustaceans in the future.The aim of this work was to compare the biological characteristics and the sensitivity to the toxic effect of the crustaceans Ceriodaphnia affinis (Lilljeborg, 1902) during cultivation on the conditioned tap water and the artificial medium ADaM. The novelty of the research is the application of the medium ADaM for bioassay using the particular species of daphniids C. affinis. The relevance of this work is to find new ways to optimize the culture conditions for crustaceans and the standardization of toxicological studies conditions.We hope, that the followig article would be of interest to readers of "Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry" because Ceriodaphnia is a common test organism used by many of its readership.
