Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Dered Krian is one of the National Park in Sarawak which was gazetted in 2013, located at 1° 24' 59.99" N \nlatitude and 110° 08' 60.00" E longitude, Bau, Kuching Division, Sarawak. It covers an area of about 1339 ha \nof limestone formation. As far it concern, the flora diversity and information within the areas are still \nlacking. Thus an effort to record the ferns and fern allied were conducted during the expedition organized by \nSarawak Forest Department Sarawak in collaboration with Universiti Malaysia Sarawak on the 25 September \n2016 until 29 September 2016. The specimens collected were preserved and processed as herbarium \nspecimens for identification and deposited at the Herbarium Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (HUMS) and \nduplicate to Sarawak Forests Department (SAR). The observation of the characteristics of the samples were \ndone based on the fresh and herbarium specimens. The fern and fern allied structures were observed using \ndissecting microscope. As a results, a total of 18 families consisting of 29 genera and 39 species of fern were \nrecorded. The family Selaginellaceae is the most collected with four species. Other families such as \nAspleniaceae, Lygodiaceae, Polypodiaceae, Pteridaceae and Thelypteridaceae have each three species \nrecorded. Most of the fern and fern-allied found were terrestrial with 25 species while nine species were \nepiphytic. The most common species observed were Selaginella Beauv, Asplenium nidus L., and Drynaria \nquercifolia (L.) J.Sm. The basic descriptions and images of the species were included. The key identification \nalso done on fern and fern allied within the same genus. The results of this study will be very beneficial for \nfurther research, conservation and management of the Dered Krian National Park
Exploring the Experiences of Family Members When a Patient Is Admitted to the ICU with a Severe Traumatic Brain Injury: A Scoping Review

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

The needs of family members of patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) with a severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) remain unmet. To date, no review has been performed to explore the experiences of relatives of adults who have been admitted to the ICU for treatment of a TBI. The aim of this scoping review is to explore and map the evidence of the experiences of family members when an adult relative is admitted to an ICU with a severe TBI. This review follows a combination of guidelines from Arksey and O’Malley and the Joanna Briggs Institute. Five electronic databases, Medline, Emcare, Embase, CINAHL, and PsycInfo were searched in February 2023, as were a number of grey literature sources. The population, concepts, and context framework were used to define the inclusion and exclusion criteria. From 4077 records, nine studies were retained, which represented seven discrete studies. The experiences of family members were thematically analyzed. The narrative synthesis of findings revealed three themes: communication with the clinical team, uncertainty, and involvement in care. These results offer richness and depth of understanding to clinicians regarding the experiences of families during this traumatic time. This review provides direction for targeted interventions aimed at supporting family members while in the ICU.
Nutritional quality of photosynthetically diverse crops under future climates

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Summary Societal Impact Statement Climate change continues to intensify the challenges of food production as agricultural systems face more variable and extreme weather. Coupled with increasing human population, growers must balance increasing crop yields with nutrient content to prevent global malnutrition. Photosynthetic diversity may permit some crops to tolerate climate change and elevated CO 2 whilst maintaining both crop yield quantity and quality. This review examines how photosynthetic diversity interacts with crop production and nutritional stability under elevated CO 2 and climate change, and highlights opportunities for photosynthetic diversity to inspire agricultural solutions. Summary Innovative agricultural solutions are desperately needed to achieve food security for a growing human population amidst the imminent pressures of climate change that threaten more variable and extreme weather, placing additional pressures on already precarious agricultural systems. Not only are crop yields at risk under climate change but rising global atmospheric CO 2 concentrations are concurrently driving a carbon dilution effect that threatens to reduce the nutritional quality of our crops to further global malnutrition. Plants using different photosynthetic metabolisms, however, experience these negative impacts to yield and nutrition to different degrees. Thus, photosynthetic diversity may offer solutions to combat malnutrition under climate change and elevated CO 2 concentrations, whether that be through targeting existing resilient species for agricultural programmes or applying agricultural biotechnology to engineer photosynthetic diversity into existing crops. Here, we discuss how each major photosynthetic type is predicted to fare under elevated CO 2 concentrations and climate change and explore agricultural opportunities to maintain both yield and nutrient stability.

Study on digital design of comic strip

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Abstract At present, we are in an era of rapid information development. The popularization of the Internet and mobile terminals makes information exchange more convenient. WeChat public platform, baidu, weibo, xiaohongshu and other platforms are still thriving. How to make the comic strip keep up with the trend of The Times, come into sight again, and become the popular spiritual and cultural products, is what the author wants to express in this article. Traditional paper comics can no longer meet people’s needs for convenience, timeliness and interaction, and today’s media era provides a broader platform for the development of comics. In the information age, everyone is creating images, reading images, and recording bits and pieces in the form of images, which has become a part of People’s Daily life, and comic books can re-enter everyone’s life in this way. It is the inheritance and development of traditional comics that endows them with the characteristics of the digital age, which can make them have the advantages that traditional comics do not have.
Time and companionship: key factors in Hispanic shopping behavior

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Examines the situational dimensions affecting purchasing behavior of Hispanic customers in a mall at some distance from their neighborhoods. The Hispanic shopper (which would also include a large segment of immigrants) makes the (shopping) trip worthwhile by travelling with companions, consummating a purchase while at the mall, and buying food or beverage during the visit. The Hispanic shopper also spends more time at the mall and visits more stores while there. This is an example of how marketers have become increasingly interested in the extent to which situational factors influence immigrants’ purchase behavior.

Evaluation of precursor evaporation in Si nanoparticle synthesis by inductively coupled thermal plasmas

Field: Chemical Engineering (Physical Sciences)

The evaporation of micro-sized silicon solid precursor in a laboratory scale inductively \ncoupled thermal plasma system for nanoparticle synthesis is investigated numerically using a \ncustomized version of the commercial CFD code ANSYS FLUENT©. Two turbulence \nmodels—the standard k–ε and the Reynolds stress model—and two different models for the \ncomputation of vapour production from the heated precursor—evaporation at boiling point and \nvaporization driven by vapour concentration gradients—are n compared; the choice of the \nturbulence model can considerably influence the estimation of vapour production because \nplasma temperature reduction by plasma-particle heat exchange is increased when the flow in \nthe torch region is predicted to be laminar, whereas the choice of the model for particle \nevaporation may be critical when the plasma temperature is decreased by plasma–particle heat \nexchange to values close to the boiling point of the material treated.
Myasthenic crisis: report of 24 cases

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Myasthenic crisis (MC) is a life-threatening complication of myasthenia gravis (MG) with a high mortality rate. The aim of our study was to review the different therapeutics approaches in the treatment of MC and their impact in the final outcome. We reviewed the medical files of patients diagnosed with MG admitted between February 1993 and October 1997, who developed MC. Sex, mean age, disease's duration, functional scale, symptoms preceding the crisis, crisis therapy in each set and mortality were then analysed. There were 24 patients who developed MC, 21 females and 3 males, with 1 neonatal, 1 congenital sporadic, 17 juvenile/adult, 3 over 50 years and 2 with thymoma. Dysphagia, dysphonia and dysartria were the most common symptoms preceding the crisis. A precipitating factor was elicited in 8 cases and the most common was infection (upper airway infection, urinary tract infection and pneumonia). 16 patients needed a nasogastric tube and 9 had a tracheostomy performed. 24 patients used anticholinesterase drugs, 21 prednisone, 7 immunosuppressive agents, 5 plasmapheresis, 3 human hyperimune gamma immunoglobulin and 12 had thymectomy. A good response was obtained in 13, satisfactory in 7 and there were 4 deaths. We concluded that in spite of all the therapeutics options, there were non statistically significant differences in the outcome of patients that underwent thymectomy and those who did not.

A Comprehensive Review on Varti Kalpana

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Ayurveda holds a prominent and exceptional place in Indian scientific heritage. Ayurveda places a strong emphasis on prevention and aids in promoting and extending a happy, healthy life. Chikitsa in Ayurveda is the result of diligent effort and judicious use of Chatushpada (Four pillars of treatment). Bhaishajya kalpana is an important branch of Ayurveda which mainly deals with the development of diverse Ayurvedic formulations. Panchavidha Kashaya Kalpana is the basic five therapeutic preparations. Varti Kalpana is a unique Ayurvedic dosage form and it is an Upakalpana of Kalka Kalpana mentioned in Panchavidha kashaya kalpana. Its mode of action and administration is different from Vati Kalpana even though it has similar physical structure and method of preparation. Bruhatrayees were extensively explains about different types of Varti like Netra Varti, Guda Varti, Yoni Varti etc. Siras, Basthi and Hrudayam are collectively called as Trimarma and Guda is one among the Maha marma. Diseases of these vital parts can be safely managed with Varti prayoga without causing any complications. Varti prayoga is included in Stanika chikitsa (local treatment) but it can impart local as well as systemic effect. Manasiladi Dhumavarti indicated in Kasa, Kayastyadi Varti and Yashtyadi Varti in Apasmara, Sallakadi dhumavarti in Unmada are the examples of Varti prayoga which exert systemic effect. The convenience of Varti is enhanced by its simple administration, quick response, and user-friendliness.
[Peptidergic control of electrical activities in the magnocellular neurons of the hypothalamus].

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

Although many peptides have been reported in the vicinity of hypothalamic magnocellular nuclei, their role in the control of neurohypophysial hormone release was only studied for few peptides: opiates, angiotensin II, substance P, CRF, oxytocin and vasopressin. Their effects are briefly recalled and then compared to the more detailed study of their role in the firing pattern of oxytocin and vasopressin neurones. This technique, in some cases, revealed the action site and mechanism of these peptides in the hypothalamo-neurohypophysial system.
Parallel processing for stowage planning (I)

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Singapore is well-known for having one of the world’s busiest port and maritime operations. It was rated the top busiest port by volume and second by Twenty-foot equivalent unit (TEU) quantity. An enormous challenge face by both Singapore and all major ports in the world is the ability to be able to generate feasible stowage plan for ship. In the past, stowage plans were generated by human experts though experience. However, as years goes by, economic growth and free-trade agreement causes the number of ships and quantity of containers embarking in Singapore to increase, resulting in inefficiently in stowage planning by human expert. Hence storage plans generation algorithm for container ships became really crucial for the planning and allocations of containers on board the ship for loading and unloading purposes. In this project the algorithm has already been developed but it currently only utilizes one processor when running. In the current state of technological advancement, we have at our disposal multi-core processor, thus not utilizing multi-cores for processing is a great waste of processing power.
Natural resource extraction and household welfare in rural Laos

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

Human induced degradation of land due to over-extraction of water and forest resources is a threat to sustainable development in many developing countries. Solving this requires an understanding of the factors affecting the extraction and its impacts on rural welfare. In this study, we determine the factors affecting the extraction of and dependence on forest and water resources and examine the impacts of the extraction on rural household welfare in Laos. We address our research questions with an econometric framework that models the extraction and its implications simultaneously. We use the data of 430 rural households from a survey undertaken in 2013 in 38 villages of Savannakhet province. Our findings show that extraction is a shock-coping strategy of rural households but contributes to reducing household income inequality. For extracting households, extraction increases household income, consumption and food security. However, for non-extracting households, although extraction would increase food security, it would reduce their income and consumption. We suggest that promoting rural education and off-farm employment opportunities, enhancing investments in physical infrastructure, and developing livestock rearing would reduce the extraction of and the dependence on the resources of extractors and prevent non-extractors from being forced to extract the resources. Acknowledgement : We thank the farmers in Savannakhet province for their support and cooperation. We also acknowledge the support and appreciate the efforts of our partners in Lao PDR as well as all our colleagues at the Leibniz University Hannover for data collection.
How feminist knowledge is made in and beyond disciplines

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

This article investigates the relationship between disciplinarity and feminist knowledge-making in Australia's humanities and social sciences. To identify the conditions of possibility for successful feminist knowledge projects, we interpret career trajectories of senior feminist and gender researchers within five disciplines: economics, history, philosophy, politics and sociology. Feminist knowledge-making about gender occurs in every field, but it has uneven impact and status in relation to different disciplinary practices. Career trajectories are analysed to understand how feminist research is practiced within, or perhaps against or beyond, conventional disciplinarity. Strategies for feminist knowledge-making vary across and within fields. Epistemic pluralism is a key possibility condition necessary for feminist knowledge-making. In fields characterized by conceptual openness (sociology, history), feminist knowledge-making can most easily be practiced as 'core' disciplinary work. In disciplines characterized by epistemic closure, feminists are carving out new subfields within (economics, politics) and beyond (philosophy) their mainstream disciplinarities.
Genetically Modified Potato as a Source of Novel Carbohydrates

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Significant progress has been made in understanding of carbohydrate (starch) biosynthesis through molecular biology and genetic engineering techniques. Genetic modification of plants has a great potential to produce novel carbohydrates with unique properties that cannot be generated by conventional breeding approaches. Starch is the predominant carbohydrate in potatoes and serves as an energy reserve for the plant. Genetic engineering of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tuber can revolutionise the synthesis of unique starches with altered physical and chemical properties that are engineered to meet the specific industrial requirements. In addition to expression of foreign genes involved in carbohydrate biosynthesis, genes regulating the carbohydrate metabolism, transport and resource partitioning have also been achieved. Here we summarise the recent progress made towards modifications of the biosynthetic pathways by which potato can produce novel carbohydrates. Further, we discuss the prospects of engineering potatoes for production of structural and non-structural carbohydrates.
Encased encounters : remapping boundaries of U.S. and Mexican indigeneity

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

In our current historical moment, notions of citizenship and sovereignty are continually being called into question. Over the past two hundred years, processes of delimiting the cultural and geographic parameters of the U.S. and Mexican nation-states have played out in distinct but parallel ways. As the two countries that share the largest militarized border in the world, flows of migration, or rather the containment of these flows, has necessitated a clear demarcation of what constitutes indigenous people, and more importantly, indigenous landscapes. Citizenship in both countries has always been predicated upon how the nation-state imagines its borders, and whom it imagines as worthy of residing within those borders. This work maps the systemic and overt forms of racism that create current discourses and perceptions of indigeneity, analyzing how these forms continue to define and delimit nation-building projects today. Through centering an analysis of the National Museum of the American Indian in the United States and the Museo Nacional de Antropología in Mexico, I link their institutional practices and representations of indigenous communities to larger historical developments and genealogies to reveal the way that structural racism and ideologies operate to manage and produce the ongoing "absent presence" of indigeneity. This project aims to move away from the notion of museums as sites of multicultural inclusion and public recognition to examine the ongoing problem and reconfiguring of "difference" in such spaces. Looking at the way that each museum facilitates navigation through spatial, as well as temporal boundaries, I then locate these navigations within larger historical and contemporary debates surrounding conflicting notions of state and Native sovereignty. I contend that museums are key sites for capturing, staging and authenticating indigenous identities, serving as important locations to examine the indigenous presence in larger national and discursive contexts. This dissertation asks the following questions : how do museums provide the groundwork for the imagined and symbolic landscapes through which we see, engage and encounter the indigenous presence in the early 21st century? How does an understanding of indigeneity in these two museums reveal much more about the present conditions of globalization, neoliberalism, diaspora, history and political sovereignty? How does apprehending the racialization of space and place allow for nuanced analyses of power and native subjectivities in the present -day?
Performance comparisons of various frequency-hopped multiple-access receiver

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Frequency-hopped spread-spectrum system is a practiced solution to use the limited bandwidth more efficiently. Frequency-Hopping technology is also considered one of the most efficient communication systems against jamming. This technology has been used in both military and commercial applications. Uncoded coherent Binary Frequency Shift Keying (BFSK) system performs is evaluated over various channel conditions. Slow frequency hop (SFH) does not give much improvement to the system performance, so I focus on fast frequency hop (FFH) in this project. Performances of clipper receiver and linear combining receiver using square law detector are compared under slow flat fading channel with multitone jamming and multiple access interferences. The simulation results show that clipper receiver outperformance linear combining receiver when the jamming and multiple access interference (MAI) are strong. The performance improvement is much more obvious when only jamming signal suffers fading as compared with the case when both data signal and jamming signal suffer from fading.
