Ixodes boliviensis Latreille 1795

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

29. Ixodes ca. boliviensis Neumann, 1904. New record: Victoria: (1F, LAFC000484) Ejido Santa Ana, Heteromys irroratus Grey. Distribution: Sierra Madre Oriental Province. Note: The type specimens of I. boliviensis were collected in Bolivia (Cochabamba Department) and described by Neumann (1904). Ixodes boliviensis was referred to in some Central and South American countries as Ixodes bicornis; however, Kohls (1956) synonymized Ixodes bicornis with I. boliviensis, while Camicas et al. (1998) considered I. boliviensis as a synonym of I. diversifossus. Based on the above, a comparison between the Mexican and Bolivian species should be made. The comparison should also include the types of Ixodes diversifossus Neumann, 1899 and Ixodes bicornis Neumann, 1906 (Guglielmone et al. 2023). Our specimen was determined as I. ca. boliviensis; however, this specimen presented some morphological variations (differences in the punctations on the scutum and shape of the spurs of coxa I) with respect to the diagnosis referred to in Guzmán-Cornejo and Robbins (2010). Furthermore, based on the comparison of a partial sequence of the 16S rRNA gene obtained from this specimen, it was only 98% similar to I. boliviensis (GenBank accession no. OP47070.1 (Moreira-Soto et al. 2022).
Critical Bands and the Discrimination of Intensity Relations in Two-Tone Complexes

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

The intensity relations within a two-tone complex were varied by setting one tone 0.5 to 4 dB below 70 dB SPL and the other the same number of decibels above. 25 subjects, listening monaurally through earphones, tried to distinguish these complexes from complexes with both tones at 70 dB. The main variable was the frequency separation ΔF between the two tones. It was usually more difficult to detect an intensity difference within the complex when the two tones were close or far apart in frequency than when they were at some intermediate distance, roughly equal to the critical bandwidth. The effect of ΔF was clearest when the lower-frequency component was more intense than the higher-frequency component. Measures were also made with the intensity of the two components changed in the same rather than opposite directions. Here detectibility was independent of ΔF. These findings held up best at center frequencies of 1000 and 2000 cps, less well at center frequencies of 500 and 4000 cps. [Research supported by the Public Health Service, U. S.

Tc for non s-wave pairing superconductors correlated with coherence length and effective mass

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

For unconventional heavy Fermion superconductors, typified by UBe_13, the superconducting transition temperatures Tc are shown to correlate with a characteristic energy hbar^2 /(m* xi^2), m* being the effective mass and xi the coherence length. For four of the six materials for which Tc, m* and xi are available, kB Tc ~ 20 hbar^2 / (m* xi^2). One heavy Fermion material, UPd_2Al_3, reveals a tendency for the above linear behaviour to saturate at substantially larger hbar^2 / (m* xi^2) than for UBe_13. The sixth material considered, URu_2Si_2, falls between UBe_13 and UPd_2Al_3. To embrace d-wave pairing in cuprates, a log-log plot reveals that kB Tc ~ hbar^2 / (m* xi^2), but more materials for which m* and xi are measured will be required to substantiate the correlation in these high-Tc substances.
Global review of human-induced earthquakes

Field: Earth and Planetary Sciences (Physical Sciences)

The Human-induced Earthquake Database, HiQuake, is a comprehensive record of earthquake sequences postulated to be induced by anthropogenic activity. It contains over 700 cases spanning the period 1868–2016. Activities that have been proposed to induce earthquakes include the impoundment of water reservoirs, erecting tall buildings, coastal engineering, quarrying, extraction of groundwater, coal, minerals, gas, oil and geothermal fluids, excavation of tunnels, and adding material to the subsurface by allowing abandoned mines to flood and injecting fluid for waste disposal, enhanced oil recovery, hydrofracturing, gas storage and carbon sequestration. Nuclear explosions induce earthquakes but evidence for chemical explosions doing so is weak. Because it is currently impossible to determine with 100% certainty which earthquakes are induced and which not, HiQuake includes all earthquake sequences proposed on scientific grounds to have been human-induced regardless of credibility. Challenges to constructing HiQuake include under-reporting which is ~ 30% of M ~ 4 events, ~ 60% of M ~ 3 events and ~ 90% of M ~ 2 events. The amount of stress released in an induced earthquake is not necessarily the same as the anthropogenic stress added because pre-existing tectonic stress may also be released. Thus earthquakes disproportionately large compared with the associated industrial activity may be induced. Knowledge of the magnitude of the largest earthquake that might be induced by a project, MMAX, is important for hazard reduction. Observed MMAX correlates positively with the scale of associated industrial projects, fluid injection pressure and rate, and the yield of nuclear devices. It correlates negatively with calculated inducing stress change, likely because the latter correlates inversely with project scale. The largest earthquake reported to date to be induced by fluid injection is the 2016 M 5.8 Pawnee, Oklahoma earthquake, by water-reservoir impoundment the 2008 M ~ 8 Wenchuan, People's Republic of China, earthquake, and by mass removal the 1976 M 7.3 Gazli, Uzbekistan earthquake. The minimum amount of anthropogenic stress needed to induce an earthquake is an unsound concept since earthquakes occur in the absence of industrial activity. The minimum amount of stress observed to modulate earthquake activity is a few hundredths of a megapascal and possibly as little as a few thousandths, equivalent to a few tens of centimeters of water-table depth. Faults near to failure are pervasive in the continental crust and induced earthquakes may thus occur essentially anywhere. In intraplate regions neither infrastructure nor populations may be prepared for earthquakes. Human-induced earthquakes that cause nuisance are rare, but in some cases may be a significant problem, e.g., in the hydrocarbon-producing areas of Oklahoma, USA. As the size of projects and density of populations increase, the potential nuisance of induced earthquakes is also increasing and effective management strategies are needed.
Marketing Research Traditions: Toward Theoretical Unification or Pluralism?

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

Theories of marketing and their future directions are increasingly discussed topics. A significant theme is whether we can construct a unifying logic for the marketing discipline (Vargo and Lusch 2004), or whether marketing should be seen as a theoretically pluralistic field (Möller and Halinen 2000). This issue is first addressed by examining the characteristics of marketing as a scientific domain. Next, a selected set of research traditions or schools of marketing (marketing management, services marketing, marketing channels, interaction and network approach in business marketing, relationship marketing) are described in terms of their intellectual goals and metatheoretical assumptions. This evaluation suggests that the fundamental aspects in assessing the explanatory value, limitations, and relative closeness of research traditions are the assumptions they make about: (i) marketing exchange relationships, (ii) the context of this exchange, and (iii) the actors carrying out the exchanges, in addition to their epistemological and methodological bases. Lastly, the results are used to argue for the adoption of theoretical pluralism in the marketing discipline.

Photograph of the Men's Gymnasium on W Highland St across from where the Coliseum now stands. The ground around the building is covered in snow, and the trees have lost their leaves. The gym is also known as “the pit.” The gym opened December 1, 1950, with a seating capacity of 4,500. The opening of this facility allowed spectators other than students to attend games and other programs. It was renamed the Ken Bahnsen Gym in 2005.
Palliative management of malignant antro-pyloric strictures. Gastroenterostomy vs. endoscopic stenting. A randomized prospective trial.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

There were no statistically significant differences between the 2 groups even with respect to morbidity, mortality, delayed gastric emptying and clinical outcomes at 3-month follow-up. Endoscopic stenting was significantly more effective with respect to operative time, restoration of oral intake and median hospitalization. Our results would suggest that endoscopically placed metal stents offer an effective alternative to surgical palliation in patients with unresectable malignant strictures.
Subjective health status as a determinant of mortality among African-American elders.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

This study examines the efficacy of self-rated health as a determinant of 6-year survival among the 1209 African-American respondents in the Longitudinal Study on Aging (LSOA). The association between self-rated health and mortality risk has been established previously; however, this relationship has not been directly tested in a nonwhite sample. Findings indicate that self-rated health is a predictor of mortality that is independent of several control variables (income, sex, age, education, and marital status) and two objective health status indicators (bed days and doctor visits). However, it is not independent of limitations with activities of daily living. When all three objective health measures were included in a single model, self-rated health was not an independent predictor of mortality. However, when the full model was specified on sex-specific subsamples, the analysis found that self-rated health was an independent predictor of mortality for women, but not for men.
Customized Assessment Group Initiative: A Complementary Approach to Students' Learning

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

This study, conducted in a US setting, examines the importance of group dynamics that emphasize cooperative team building through the proposed grouping strategy called Customized Assessment Group Initiative (CAGI). CAGI is a student grouping strategy designed to operationalize the mutual accountability concept central to the definition of teams by Katzenbach and Smith [(1993). The wisdom of teams: Creating the high performance . Boston, MA: Harvard Business Press]. Spanning two semesters and using a sample of sophomore students in the Introductory/Principles of Accounting class, I implement CAGI in a five-stage process to show students' performance differences between the conventional grouping technique and the CAGI grouping strategy, thereby highlighting the potential pedagogical value of CAGI in the classroom. The findings demonstrate that CAGI has the heightened capacity to enhance substantially and improve concretely students' performances. I strongly believe that CAGI could be promising to accounting and other business school students at a university where emphasis is placed on 'teamship' and not just group membership.
Influence of cultivar, growth altitude and maturity stage on banana volatile compound composition

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

La composition quantitative en composés volatils de bananes (#Musa acuminata#, groupe AAA, sous-groupe 'Cavendish') a été étudiée pour deux cultivars différents ('Robusta' et 'Grande Naine') développés à deux altitudes différentes [(90 et 500) m] et à deux stades de maturité différents (notation 5 et 7 dans l'échelle de coloration). Des composés volatils ont été séparés et conjointement identifiés par chromatographie capillaire en gaz liquide et spectrométrie de masse. Après évaluation des changements en composés volatils intervenus pendant la maturation, les effets de l'altitude des plantations et du cultivar utilisé ont été examinés. Pour un fruit partiellement mûr, l'altitude a eu différents effets sur les deux cultivars. La concentration en composés aromatiques volatils du cultivar 'Robusta' a été la plus élevée en haute altitude, alors que celle de 'Grande Naine' l'a été à basse altitude. Au stade de pleine maturité, cette différence était encore décelable, sans être aussi distincte. Quel que soit le stade de maturation, le cultivar 'Robusta' a montré la concentration en composés aromatiques volatils la plus élevée. L'analyse sensorielle discriminante a été étroitement liée aux différences de composition en composés volatils des échantillons.
Non-Coding Sequences Regulating Eukaryotic Gene Expression

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

Gene expression in eukaryotes is a complex process that is involved with many levels from DNA transcription to mRNA posttranscriptional processing and posttranslational modification.It is the precise execution of these regulations that ensures the faithful completion of biological processes.The complexity of eukaryote certainly requires a more complex and precise regulation mechanism of gene expression.This is the main reason why most of the eukaryotic genome is non-coding sequences.Cis-acting elements,repetitive sequences,introns,untranslated regions and non-coding RNAs are non-coding sequences that play important roles in regulating expression of eukaryotic genes.Cis-acting elements interact with trans-acting factors to regulate gene expression in the transcription.Repetitive sequences can influence the chromatin structure.Introns and untranslated regions mainly regulate the gene expression at the level of post-transcription.Non-coding RNAs control various levels of gene expression.Here the authors review these non-coding sequences that regulate gene expression and their regulation mechanisms.

Studies Involving the Synthesis and Characterization of High Energy Magnet Materials

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

Abstract : Permanent magnets are essential components of a wide range of modern devices, many of which have military significance - travelling wave tubes, klystrons, linear induction accelerators, high power free electron lasers, high performance motors and generators, etc. Higher energy permanent magnets enable one to downsize the various devices which operate via permanent magnets. The present study had as its main objectives: (a) improving existing high energy magnets and (b) developing new magnets. The systems studied with this in mind fall into three structural types: those having (a) the Nd2Fe14B structure, (b) the ThMn12 structure and (c) the Sm2Co17 structure. Results of the studies are presented in 26 papers published in the open literature. Highlights of the work are provided in this report by giving terse summaries of 9 of the papers. The work has been a part of the world-wide effort to make Nd2Fe14B magnets into a commercial reality.
Augmented reality interactive photography representation

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

This project is based on the study and implementation of the augmented reality (AR) technology being implemented on a photography exhibition. AR technology is a kind of Virtual Reality (VR), which allows a user to not only see the real world around him, but also be able to superimpose virtual objects and visuals onto the real objects in the world around him. For AR technology to be accessible, there are a few very important hardware, aside from the software, such as a central processing unit (CPU), a camera, a display to show the users the results of the AR technology and mircoelectromechanical (MEMS) sensors like an accelerometer. With the proliferation of handheld smart devices and camera phones, the hardware requirements are easily fulfilled, making it both easy and convenient for the general public to experience the AR technology using the devices they already own.
Effect of Foliar Application of Carbofuran and a Related Compound on Plant-parasitic Nematodes under Greenhouse and Growth Chamber Conditions.

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Greenhouse and growth chamber studies were made to investigate the downward systemic nematicidal activity of carbofuran and its analog 2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-7-benzofuranyl [(di-n-butyl)-4-aminosulfenyl] carbamate against Meloidogyne incognita, Tylenchorhynchus claytoni, and Pratylenchus penetrans. Oxamyl was used as standard in tests with T. claytoni. Both carbofuran and its analog reduced all three plant-parasitic species when plant foliage was sprayed with chemical suspension of 1,200, 2,400 or 4,800 ppm. The studies show that fewer chemical applications were required to reduce populations of P. penetrans than to reduce populations of T. claytoni. Oxamyl was somewhat less active than either carbofuran or its analog.

Inhibitory Effects of Bufadienolides on Interleukin-6 in MH-60 Cells

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Derivatives of bufogenin isolated from the skin of the Chinese toad, Bufo bufo gargarizans Cantor ("Ch'an Su"), and several semisynthetic derivatives of 20beta,21beta-epoxy-resibufogenin (13) have been evaluated for interleukin-6 (IL-6) antagonistic activity due to their growth-inhibitory activities on IL-6-dependent MH-60 cells. Among the naturally derived compounds (1-17), 20S,21-epoxy-resibufogenin formate (1) showed potent inhibitory activity on the IL-6-dependent growth of MH-60 cells. Epoxide groups at both the C-14, C-15 and C-20, C-21 positions are required to exhibit this type of activity. Compounds acetylated at the C-16 position (7 and 9-11) showed a loss of activity. An oxo group at the C-3 position (8, 14, and 15) resulted in cytotoxicity for both cell lines. Stereochemistry is important for selectivity on suppression of IL-6 activity. Among the semisynthetic derivatives (18-25) of 13, compound 19, with an acetyl group introduced at the C-3 position in comparison to 13, demonstrated considerable growth inhibition of IL-6-dependent MH-60 cells.
Collisional flavor swap with neutrino self-interactions

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

Neutrinos play pivotal roles in determining fluid dynamics, nucleosynthesis, and their observables in core-collapse supernova (CCSN) and binary neutron star merger (BNSM). In this paper, we present a novel phenomenon, collisional flavor swap, in which neutrino-matter interactions trigger the complete interchange of neutrino spectra between two different flavors, aided by neutrino self-interactions. We find that a necessary condition to trigger the collisional swap is occurrences of resonance-like collisional flavor instability. In cases where neutrino self-interactions substantially dominate over the collision rate, the collisional swap occurs in the entire neutrino energy spectrum, while intriguing energy dependent features can emerge after the completion of flavor swap. Since flavor swaps correspond to the most extreme case in flavor conversions, they have a great potential to affect CCSN and BNSM phenomena.
Air cushioning in droplet impacts with liquid layers and other droplets

Field: Chemistry (Physical Sciences)

Air cushioning of a high-speed liquid droplet impact with a finite-depth liquid layer sitting upon a rigid impermeable base is investigated. The evolution of the droplet and liquid-layer free-surfaces is studied alongside the pressure in the gas film dividing the two. The model predicts gas bubbles are trapped between the liquid free-surfaces as the droplet approaches impact. The key balance in the model occurs when the depth of the liquid layer equals the horizontal extent of interactions between the droplet and the gas film. For liquid layer depths significantly less than this a shallow liquid limit is investigated, which ultimately tends towards the air-cushioning behavior seen in droplet impact with a solid surface. Conversely, for liquid layer depths much deeper than this, the rigid base does not affect the air-cushioning of the droplet. The influence of compressibility is discussed and the relevant parameter regime for an incompressible model is identified. The size of the trapped gas bubble as a function of the liquid layer depth is investigated. The deep water model is extended to consider binary droplet collisions. Again, the model predicts gas bubbles will be trapped as the result of air cushioning in high-speed binary droplet impacts.
