Abstract:
Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior
Smell has a close connection with the brain areas involving emotion, learning and memory, and maybe that's why the olfactory memories evoke emotions. In dentistry, some situations involving the presence of unpleasant odors can cause some discomfort, such as halitosis, popularly known as bad breath. Halitosis is defined as an offensive odor from the mouth, nasal cavities, sinuses and / or pharynx. This study aimed to understand how halitosis is experienced by individuals and detect their reflections on the behavior of the ill. For this, we used a qualitative methodology and data collection was performed at the School of Dentistry, Federal University of Santa Maria. The study population consisted of twelve adult individuals of both sexes and complaining of halitosis. The study group was considered sufficient when information began to repeat, indicating saturation of the data. This qualitative research used semistructured interviews as a procedure for data collection. After each interview, information was transcribed and submitted to the analysis. To interpret the data and better understand the meanings, we used the technique of content analysis, thematic modality. The analysis included categories that were expected and those that emerged. After the analysis, we obtained six categories lated to halitosis: "Bad breath is a horrible smell," "I feel very bad, in desperation," "Talk is losing his friend," "I became addicted to chewing gum," "Healing: a watershed in my life" and "The dental professionals should be prepared. " We noticed that people associate factors of oral and gastrointestinal disturbances as a possible cause of halitosis. About behavioral, people who have this change often feel inferior and rejected, avoiding social contact. All prefer to be alerted about oral malodor by friends and / or family, however, would not warn others about the same condition. Still, there was plenty of resources that use masking breath and see the dentist as the main responsible for diagnosing and treating halitosis, and found little information available about this. Thus, we conclude that halitosis is a change that could affect self-esteem and confidence of the people, a negative effect on social behavior, and that the issue requires action halitosis wide range of multi population in order to clarify doubts and myths related to its etiology and its treatment.
O olfato tem uma ligação próxima com as áreas cerebrais que envolvem a emoção, o aprendizado e a memória, e talvez seja por isso que as memórias olfativas evoquem emoções. Em Odontologia, algumas situações que envolvem presença de odores desagradáveis podem causar algum desconforto, como é o caso da halitose, popularmente chamada de mau hálito. A halitose é definida como um odor ofensivo proveniente da boca, cavidades nasais, seios da face e/ou faringe. Este estudo teve como objetivo compreender como a halitose é vivenciada pelas pessoas e detectar os seus reflexos no comportamento dos acometidos. Para isso, utilizou-se uma metodologia qualitativa e a coleta dos dados foi realizada nas dependências do Curso de Odontologia da Universidade Federal de Santa Maria. A população de estudo foi constituída por doze indivíduos adultos de ambos os sexos e com queixa de halitose. O grupo de estudo foi considerado suficiente quando as informações começaram a se repetir, indicando a saturação dos dados. Esta investigação qualitativa utilizou entrevistas individuais semiestruturadas como procedimento para coleta dos dados. Após cada entrevista, as informações eram integralmente transcritas para posterior submissão à análise. Para interpretar os dados e melhor compreender os significados, foi utilizada a técnica de Análise de Conteúdo, na modalidade temática. A análise incluiu temas que eram esperados e também os que emergiram durante o trabalho. Após a análise, foram obtidas seis categorias relacionadas à halitose: Mau hálito é um cheiro horrível ; Eu me sinto muito mal, em desespero ; Falar é perder o amigo ; Eu viciei em chicletes ; Cura: um divisor de águas na minha vida e Os profissionais da Odontologia deveriam estar preparados . Foi possível verificar que as pessoas associam fatores intrabucais e distúrbios gastrintestinais como possível causa da halitose. Do ponto de vista comportamental, os indivíduos que apresentam essa alteração frequentemente sentem-se inferiorizados e rejeitados, evitando o convívio social. Todos preferem ser alertados sobre o mau odor bucal pelos amigos e/ou familiares, entretanto, não avisariam a outras pessoas sobre a mesma condição. Ainda, observou-se que utilizam abundantemente recursos mascaradores do hálito e veem o cirurgião-dentista como o principal responsável por diagnosticar e tratar a halitose, e consideram escassas as informações disponíveis sobre o assunto. Assim, concluímos que halitose é uma alteração capaz de afetar a autoestima e a autoconfiança das pessoas, interferindo negativamente no comportamento social, e que o tema halitose requer ações multiprofissionais de ampla abrangência populacional a fim de esclarecer dúvidas e mitos referentes à sua etiologia e ao seu tratamento.

A halitose se caracterizada pela emanação de um odor desagradável onde cerca de 90% de se origina dentro da cavidade oral. Estudos têm demonstrado uma relação direta entre a doença periodontal e o odor ofensivo do hálito. O presente estudo teve como objetivo avaliar a frequência e distribuição de halitose em um grupo de pacientes com doença periodontal em um estudo transversal observacional (n=112) e, em um estudo intervencionista, avaliar o efeito do tratamento periodontal full-mouth e convencional na redução da halitose em um grupo de pacientes com doença periodontal. Os pacientes responderam a uma anamnese, tiveram seu hálito mensurado pelo halímetro e teste organoléptico, além de realizados Índice de placa visível, Índice de sangramento gengival, Índice de saburra lingual e exame periodontal completo. No estudo 2, os pacientes foram submetidos a seis distintas formas de tratamento: terapia periodontal em sessão única, terapia convencional em quadrantes e, um grupo controle, com somente instrução de higiene oral. Todas as modalidades subdivididas: com e sem raspagem lingual diária. No primeiro estudo os resultados mostraram que, tanto para teste organoléptico quanto para o halímetro, houve maior grau de halitose nos grupos de idades mais avançadas, nos que relataram sangramento gengival e escovação menos que três vezes ao dia. Ainda no teste organoléptico a escovação de língua gerou diferença estatística. Não houve diferença estatística entre as medidas de halitose entre teste organoléptico e halímetro. Foram encontrados aproximadamente 75% de pacientes periodontais com halitose. No segundo estudo os resultados mostraram superioridade conforme análise do halímetro para 30, 60 e 90 dias para os grupos de raspagem em sessão única contra raspagem por quadrantes. Sendo todos os grupos superiores ao controle. Não houve diferença na abordagem com ou sem a raspagem de língua. De acordo com o teste organoléptico, não houve diferença entre os quatro tipos de tratamento periodontal comparados aos grupos controle. O mesmo aplica-se ao WTCI, onde os grupos de tratamento foram superiores ao controle, todavia semelhantes entre si. Concluiu-se que a idade e o sangramento gengival, assim como a frequência de escovação podem influenciar no grau de halitose, tanto no teste organoléptico quanto halímetro. A escovação de língua mostrou-se superior apenas na avaliação organoléptica. Quando avaliado através do halímetro o tratamento full-mouth foi superior ao tratamento convencional. Esta diferença não foi observada quando avaliado através do método organoléptico. Todas as modalidades de tratamento periodontal foram superiores aos grupos controle. A raspagem lingual não teve influência nos tratamentos.
Halitosis is characterized by the emission of an unpleasant odor about 90% originates in the oral cavity. Studies have shown a direct relationship between periodontal disease and the offensive odor of breath. The present study aimed to determine the prevalence of halitosis in patients with periodontal disease in an observational cross-sectional study (n = 112) and, in an intervention study, the patients have had six distinct forms of treatment (n = 90) to verify the efficacy of full- vs. partial-mouth disinfection in the control of halitosis. Patients answered an interview, they have had their breath collected by halimeter, they have evaluated by organoleptic test, and visible plaque index, gingival bleeding index, index of tongue coating and periodontal examination. In the second step, patients have been submitted to six different forms of treatment: periodontal therapy in one session, conventional therapy in quadrants, and the control group, with only oral hygiene instruction. All types split: with and without tongue scraping daily. The first study results shown for both organoleptic test as halimeter, a greater degree of halitosis in the older age groups, we have reported that gum bleeding and brushing less than three times per day. Still in organoleptic test brushing of tongue generated statistical difference. There was no statistical difference between the measures between halitosis and organoleptic test halimeter. There was about 75% og periodontal patients with halitosis. In the second study the results shown the superiority analysis as halimeter for 30, 60 and 90 days for groups of scraping in single session against scraping by quadrants. Being all groups superior from control. There was no difference in approach with or without tongue scraping. According to the organoleptic test, there was no difference between the four types of periodontal treatment compared to the control groups. The same applies to WTCI, the treatment groups were superior to the control, but similar to each other. It was concluded that age and gingival bleeding, like brushing frequency can influence the degree of halitosis, both the organoleptic test as halimeter. Brushing the tongue was superior only in organoleptic evaluation. When assessed by halimeter treatment full-mouth was superior to conventional treatment. This difference was not observed when measured by the organoleptic method. All periodontal treatment modalities were superior to control groups. Scraping lingual had no influence on treatments.

Resumo: O objetivo do trabalho foi avaliar a relação entre o estresse e a concentração dos compostos sulfurados voláteis (CSV) no hálito bucal. Para tanto, foram avaliadas duas condições estressantes: Estudo I - prova; Estudo II - tensão pré-menstrual (TPM). O Estudo I foi composto de 2 grupos: A e B. O grupo A (34 voluntários), foi subdividido em 18 voluntários com estresse e 16 voluntários sem estresse. As concentrações dos CSV e foram medidas 1 semana antes da prova, no dia e 1 semana após, através do monitor de sulfetos (Halimeter) e o fluxo salivar também foi mensurado. No grupo B (37 voluntários), além dessas análises foram mensurados o pH, "capacidade tampão", cálcio, fósforo e proteína na saliva. O Estudo II foi composto por 50 voluntárias: 27 mulheres sem TPM (controle) e 23 mulheres com TPM. As mensurações dos CSV e do fluxo salivar foram realizadas nos períodos não-menstrual, pré-menstrual e de menstruação. A análise estatística mostrou que tanto no Grupo A (n=34) quanto no Grupo B (n=37) a concentração dos CSV no dia da prova foi maior (p<0,05) enquanto que a taxa de fluxo salivar foi menor (p<0,05). Os voluntários com estresse (n=18) e sem estresse (n=16) também apresentaram maiores concentrações de CSV no dia da prova (p<0,05), enquanto o fluxo salivar foi menor somente nos voluntários não estressados (p<0,05). A análise bioquímica da saliva do Grupo B revelou - que o pH foi menor no dia da prova (p<0,05), e as demais análises não foram diferentes (p>0,05). No Estudo II, as voluntárias sem TPM (n=26) apresentaram maior concentração dos CSV no período menstrual (p<0,05). Enquanto nas voluntárias com TPM (n=23) a concentração dos CSV foi maior (p<0,05) nos períodos menstrual e pré-menstrual. Já o fluxo salivar não mostrou diferenças (p>0,05). Os resultados sugerem que o estresse é um fator pré-disponente da halitose, cujo mecanismo não pode ser explicado somente pela diminuição do fluxo salivar
Abstract:The aim of study was to evaluate the relationship between stress and volatile sulfur compounds (VSC) present in mouth air. Thus, two stressfull conditions were evaluated: Study 1- examination; Study II - premenstrual syndrome (PMS). Study I was composed of 2 groups: A and B. Group A (34 volunteers), was divided in 18 volunteers with stress and 16 volunteers without stress. VSC concentrations were measured a week before, on day and a week after the exam using a sulfide monitor (Halimeter) and the salivary flow was measured. In group B (37 volunteers), others analyisis as pH, "buffer capacity", proteins, calcium and phosphorus, in saliva were performed. In study II, fifty women were selected: 27 women without PMS symptoms (control group) and 23 women with PMS symptoms. The measurements were performed during non-menstrual, PMS and menstrual periods. The statistical results showed in both groups A and B an increase of VSC concentration on the exam day (p<0.05) and the salivary flow was lower (p<0.05). Volunteers with stress (n=18) and without stress (n=16), presented higher VSC concentration on the exam (p<0.05), but there was statistical diferences in the salivary flow rate only in the volunteers without stress (p<0.05). The biochemistry analisys of the saliva in group B showed that pH was lower on the exam day (p<0.05), and others analisys were not statistical differences (p>0.05). In study II, the volunteers without PMS symptoms (n=26) presented higher VSC concentration in the menstrual period (p<0.05). Volunteers with PMS (h=23) showed a greater VSC concentration in both menstrual and PMS periods (p<0.05). Salivary flow rate was not statistically different (p>0.05). The results suggest that stressful conditions can be a predisposing factor for bad breath, and the mechanism cannot be explained only by the decrease of the salivary flow

Abstract:

The aim of this study is to examine the knowledge and experience of the bad breath among high school students in Kristianstad. A further objective was to measure the amount of VSC (Volatile Sulfur Compounds) among those who perceive themselves to have a bad breath. A questionnaire with 21 closed questions was distributed to 120 high school students from Kristianstad municipality who were between the ages of 17-20. The results of this study revealed that most of the students had good knowledge of halitosis. The majority of all participants thought it was important to smell fresh in the mouth and also experienced most of their breath as very good or good. Only a few felt that they had bad breath. However, these persons did think their breath affect their everyday life. Furthermore, they have never felt embarrassed or caught in embarrassing situations due to their breath. The results from the clinical examination was carried out on 8 of the 120 students and was designed to measure the amount of sulphurous gases in the oral cavity which revealed that the average values that emerged in the examination below is the limited values for having a poor breath.


Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka kunskapen och upplevelsen av dålig andedräkt hos gymnasieelever i Kristianstad, ytterligare ett syfte var att mäta mängden VSC (reaktiva svavelföreningar)  hos dem som upplever sig ha dålig andedräkt. En enkät med 21 slutna frågor delades ut till 120 gymnasieelever som var mellan 17-20 år och studerade i Kristanstads kommun. Av resultatet i denna studie framkom att de flesta av gymnasieeleverna hade goda kunskaper om halitosis. Nästan alla 120 som besvarade enkäten tyckte att det var viktigt att lukta fräsch i munnen och dessutom upplevde de flesta sin andedräkt som mycket bra eller bra. Endast ett fåtal (14% ) kände att de ibland hade dålig andedräkt. Hos dessa  påverkades inte andedräkten deras vardagliga liv och de hade aldrig blivit generade eller hamnat i pinsamma situationer på grund av sin andedräkt. Resultatet från den kliniska undersökningen som gjordes på 8 av de 120 elever som besvarade enkäten där mängden av de svavelhaltiga gaserna i munhålan mättes visade att i genomsnitt ligger värden som framkom i undersökningen under gränsvärden för att man skall ha dålig andedräkt.

Abstract:
AbstractAs King James I moved to censor Puritan opponents, he called upon John Donne to defend his policies from the pulpit. As text‚ then‚ for a sermon at St Paul’s, Donne chose Lamentations 4:20, a notorious crux. The Geneva Bible glosses ‘the anointed’ in this verse as a good king, Josiah; Calvin in his Institutes as a bad king, Zedekiah. The phrase ‘the breath of our nostrils’, an allusion to Genesis 2:7, introduces further complications. Is ‘breath’ here neshamah, nepesh, or ruach? pnoē, psychē, or pneuma? Drawing on fine distinctions between ‘breath,’ ‘soul’, and ‘spirit’ in the languages of Scripture, Donne crafts a defence of James’s ‘Directions concerning Preachers’ that is erudite, ingenious, equivocal, and disconcerting: an argument against such arguments as ‘things indifferent’ (adiaphora).

Abstract:
Basil is a medicinal herb that has been cultivated since ancient times. It also has medicinal, antibacterial, antioxidant, and antispasmodic properties. It is good for the digestive system, insect bites, and bad breath. It is also very useful in the food industry. Oilseed phytohormones are essential compounds (hormones) that regulate plant growth and development. The main phytohormones include auxins, gibberellins, cytokinins, abscisic acid, and ethylene, each of which plays a specific role. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the germination of basil using different doses of soybean phytohormones. 400 mL of distilled water was placed in a blender with 100 g of soybeans and blended for approximately 5 minutes. The mixture was then filtered through a strainer and the mass was separated from the liquid. The liquid was then filtered again using paper to better separate the liquid from the substrate. From there, the treatments were separated into T1 - 3 mL, T2 - 6 mL and T3 - 9 mL of liquid per substrate bag, where Carolina Soil® substrate with stones was placed in the bag. After waiting 10 minutes, the basil was sown, with 3 seeds per bag, for later thinning. These bags were taken to the nursery for evaluation in 15 days, the experiment was applied in triplicate and later the Tukey test was applied at 5% probability. It was observed that treatment 1 (3 mL) presented a better response when applied to the soil to increase the speed of basil germination in relation to the other two treatments (6 mL and 9 mL). This can be reinforced, as it is understood that the minimum use of fertilizer and hormone in the soil is the maximum production.

Abstract:
Mouthwash prevents bad breath and sterilizes bacteria that cause dental caries and periodontal disease, so it provides important means for improving oral hygiene in our daily life. Along with active ingredients such as bactericides, mouthwash contains a variety of aromas to mask the bitterness of base ingredients and increase palatability. However, given that numerous aroma studies have demonstrated various physiological efficacies of aromas on autonomic/central nervous systems, it is no wonder that aroma mouthwash has some sort of physiological impact when it is used. In this study, we investigated the effect of aroma in mouthwash on peripheral and cardiac autonomic nervous system activity. The experiment was carried out in a within-subject design wherein 20 healthy women under 5 conditions, which are 4 types of mouthwashes: peppermint, peppermint + bergamot, peppermint + orange, and peppermint + lavender, and water as a control. Participants performed a 20-minute calculation task as a cognitive stressor, and then rinsing by a mouthwash or water. We evaluated the recovery period from acute stress response for 20 minutes after the task. As a result, it was observed that a mouthwash with citrus flavor had a relaxing effect in terms of subjective scores and recovering from physiological stress response. The results may illustrate a potential benefit of using aroma mouthwash.

Abstract:
Background: in recent years, human papillomavirus (HPV) becomes increasingly important to the pathogenesis of oropharyngeal cancer. As a result, the prognosis and treatment for this disorder radically changes since the efficacy of selective anti-HPV medications is unknown. Aim: to assess the therapeutic potentiality of Allokin-alpha® for the radiotherapy of HPV-positive patients with oropharyngeal cancer. Patients and Methods: 40 patients with oropharyngeal cancer stage III-IV (study group: 19 patients; control group: 21 patients) underwent 3D conformal radiotherapy using 6 MeV linear particle accelerator (standard radiation exposure). In the study group, 1.0 mg of Allokin-alpha® was administered subcutaneously every other day including radiation-free days (excepting scheduled treatment breaks). In total, 24.0±2.0 mg of Allokin-alpha® were administered for two split-course radiotherapies. Results: after the first course of radiotherapy, pain resolution was reported in 59.7% of study group patients vs. 23.8% of control group patients, the resolution of foreign body sensation in the throat in 36.8% vs. 19%, and the resolution of weakness, sub-febrile temperature, and bad breath in 58.4% vs. 28.6%. The total controlled effect was achieved in 94.7% of study group patients vs. 71.4% of control group patients (р<0.05), i.e., tumor resorption was observed in 68.4% vs. 42.9% and lymph node metastasis regression in 47.3% vs. 9.6% (p<0.05). After the first course of radiotherapy, pellicle epithelitis was less common in the study group compared to the control group (28.5% vs. 5.3%, р<0.05). Conclusions: preliminary clinical data demonstrate the utility of Allokin-alpha® administering during the radiotherapy of oropharyngeal cancer. Further studies on the potential radioprotective properties of Allokin-alpha® are required to address the possible deintensification of radiation exposure.

Abstract:
Telemedicine has reemerged as the way to provide patient care amid the COVID-19 pandemic. It poses a safe and cost-efficient alternative to presence-based health appointments. Integrating remote patient care into healthcare training during their pre-clerkship curriculum is crucial for them to acquire professional skills to succeed in their postgraduate practices. One technique to achieve this is role-playing. It provides a learning environment for students to experience their future professional context in a safe, controlled setting. An educational innovation was implemented in the Preclinical Skills course to train students to carry out a teleconsult using peer role-play simulation. The study considered a mixed approach with a cross-sectional and descriptive design. The sample consisted of 75 students in the third semester on a health undergraduate program at Tecnologico de Monterrey organized in teams; each member represented a different role: health professional, patient, and observer-evaluator. Three clinical cases (abdominal pain, bad breath, and insomnia) randomly assigned. Each one with a script containing the patient's background, present illness with medical history. Students had to simulate a teleconsult according to their role, and the observer had to score a classmate's performance. To describe their experience, students completed an anonymous questionnaire. Our results showed that students identified key points that allow a teleconsult to successfully develop, even when not having the same role in the dynamic. They also recognized their opportunity areas and highlighted these tools as useful for obtaining skills that will help them excel in their professional practice even after the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract:
Aging bridge infrastructure appears to become a major challenge in many industrialized countries. Numerous bridges are in bad condition and the current pace of repair and replacement as well as the available financial resources hence demand for a reliable bridge monitoring to facilitate an extended operation period of existing bridges. Nowadays, prestressed concrete bridges are prevalent among other construction types but may suffer from stress corrosion cracking of steel tendons. To detect wire breaks in bridge tendons, recent research suggests the use of acoustic emission analysis. In this work, we propose the use of semi-supervised learning techniques for anomaly detection to detect wire breaks in tendons of prestressed concrete bridges. Particularly, we utilize only acoustic emissions due to traffic and other environmental influences, recorded on a real bridge in operation, to initialize the local outlier factor algorithm. We then apply the initialized local outlier factor algorithm to two separate datasets with more than 500 wire break signals recorded on two different types of bridge girders. It is shown that the anomaly-based approach outperforms a supervised k-nearest neighbors classifier trained using wire breaks from only one girder. An evaluation on the wire break signals from the second bridge girder, not seen during the training phase, shows an improvement of the average recall score from 38 % to more than 99 % for the anomaly-based approach compared to the supervised k-nearest neighbors classifier. Considering the diversity of bridge constructions and the fact that availability of acoustic emission signals due to wire breaks is limited, semi-supervised learning seems to be a suitable approach for wire break detection. Furthermore, acoustic emissions due to normal environmental and operational conditions could be easily and cost-effectively recorded during an initialization phase of any monitoring system and thus be utilized to initialize an anomaly detector for each specific infrastructure.

Abstract:
Abstract The clinical and financial impact of breast cancer on the U. S. health care system is great. In addition to the tangible metrics of costs and number of diagnoses, the psychological distress that accompanies a lump found in the breast is compounded by the apparent problems noted with contemporary reconstructive procedures. Currently, breast reconstruction is conducted largely by trial and error and varies with physician experience. For instance, a surgeon today will request three to four different sized implants for the operating room and will try each one, siting the patient up each time, until the desired volume and shape of the breast is achieved. The novel union of surgeons with machines and multi-modality information, made possible by advances in engineering and computing, has enormous potential in overcoming limitations realized with contemporary standard of care. For example, a virtual model of a patient’s breast will assist the surgeon in deciding a priori what implant size to order for the operating room such that desired breast outcomes are achieved. Our long-term goal is to develop novel computer-assisted surgical systems to significantly change breast cancer health care. Our approach builds upon four broad core areas of enabling knowledge and techniques, namely (1) multi-modality imaging, (2) simulation, (3) soft tissue biomechanics, and (4) interface subsystems. Recently, we developed a parametric deformable model of a female breast’s shape that allows the surgeon to manipulate the shape of the breast by varying key shape variables, analogous to the aesthetic and structural elements surgeons inherently vary manually during breast reconstruction [2]. Such a system may enhance the practice of breast surgery at multiple points. It enables the patient to communicate her expectations more clearly to the surgeon. It allows the surgeon to educate the patient with more accurate explanations about what can be accomplished, and after the consultation, it helps the surgeon plan specific aspects of the procedure to achieve the agreed upon goals.

Abstract:
This special report reviews current scientific literature to identify the most commonly cited metrics used to describe the macrohabitat criteria important for Chiroptera presence in the United States. The review evaluates 69 scientific articles from 1994 to 2018. The most commonly cited metrics were divided into four main categories: tree-species-level metrics, landscape-level metrics, distance metrics, and topographic and atmospheric metrics. Of all metrics found, the top six most common metrics noted across all articles were percent canopy cover, diameter at breast height (DBH), forest type, distance to water, distance to roads or other urban features, and tree density. In addition, 27 of the 47 (57%) bat species located within the United States were represented. These metrics provide important insight into the regional or national species-level distribution and assist with modeling the relationship between species distribution and habitat change.

Exploring mechanisms involved in grape bud dormancy: Large-scale analysis of expression reprogramming following controlled dormancy induction and dormancy release. United States Department of Agriculture, December 2002. http://dx.doi.org/10.32747/2002.7587232.bard.

Full text
Abstract:
The timing of dormancy induction and release is very important to the economic production of table grape. Advances in manipulation of dormancy induction and dormancy release are dependent on the establishment of a comprehensive understanding of biological mechanisms involved in bud dormancy. To gain insight into these mechanisms we initiated the research that had two main objectives: A. Analyzing the expression profiles of large subsets of genes, following controlled dormancy induction and dormancy release, and assessing the role of known metabolic pathways, known regulatory genes and novel sequences involved in these processes B. Comparing expression profiles following the perception of various artificial as well as natural signals known to induce dormancy release, and searching for gene showing similar expression patterns, as candidates for further study of pathways having potential to play a central role in dormancy release. We first created targeted EST collections from V. vinifera and V. riparia mature buds. Clones were randomly selected from cDNA libraries prepared following controlled dormancy release and controlled dormancy induction and from respective controls. The entire collection (7920 vinifera and 1194 riparia clones) was sequenced and subjected to bioinformatics analysis, including clustering, annotations and GO classifications. PCR products from the entire collection were used for printing of cDNA microarrays. Bud tissue in general, and the dormant bud in particular, are under-represented within the grape EST database. Accordingly, 59% of the our vinifera EST collection, composed of 5516 unigenes, are not included within the current Vitis TIGR collection and about 22% of these transcripts bear no resemblance to any known plant transcript, corroborating the current need for our targeted EST collection and the bud specific cDNA array. Analysis of the V. riparia sequences yielded 814 unigenes, of which 140 are unique (keilin et al., manuscript, Appendix B). Results from computational expression profiling of the vinifera collection suggest that oxidative stress, calcium signaling, intracellular vesicle trafficking and anaerobic mode of carbohydrate metabolism play a role in the regulation and execution of grape-bud dormancy release. A comprehensive analysis confirmed the induction of transcription from several calcium–signaling related genes following HC treatment, and detected an inhibiting effect of calcium channel blocker and calcium chelator on HC-induced and chilling-induced bud break. It also detected the existence of HC-induced and calcium dependent protein phosphorylation activity. These data suggest, for the first time, that calcium signaling is involved in the mechanism of dormancy release (Pang et al., in preparation). We compared the effects of heat shock (HS) to those detected in buds following HC application and found that HS lead to earlier and higher bud break. We also demonstrated similar temporary reduction in catalase expression and temporary induction of ascorbate peroxidase, glutathione reductase, thioredoxin and glutathione S transferase expression following both treatments. These findings further support the assumption that temporary oxidative stress is part of the mechanism leading to bud break. The temporary induction of sucrose syntase, pyruvate decarboxylase and alcohol dehydrogenase indicate that temporary respiratory stress is developed and suggest that mitochondrial function may be of central importance for that mechanism. These finding, suggesting triggering of identical mechanisms by HS and HC, justified the comparison of expression profiles of HC and HS treated buds, as a tool for the identification of pathways with a central role in dormancy release (Halaly et al., in preparation). RNA samples from buds treated with HS, HC and water were hybridized with the cDNA arrays in an interconnected loop design. Differentially expressed genes from the were selected using R-language package from Bioconductor project called LIMMA and clones showing a significant change following both HS and HC treatments, compared to control, were selected for further analysis. A total of 1541 clones show significant induction, of which 37% have no hit or unknown function and the rest represent 661 genes with identified function. Similarly, out of 1452 clones showing significant reduction, only 53% of the clones have identified function and they represent 573 genes. The 661 induced genes are involved in 445 different molecular functions. About 90% of those functions were classified to 20 categories based on careful survey of the literature. Among other things, it appears that carbohydrate metabolism and mitochondrial function may be of central importance in the mechanism of dormancy release and studies in this direction are ongoing. Analysis of the reduced function is ongoing (Appendix A). A second set of hybridizations was carried out with RNA samples from buds exposed to short photoperiod, leading to induction of bud dormancy, and long photoperiod treatment, as control. Analysis indicated that 42 genes were significant difference between LD and SD and 11 of these were unique.

Abstract:
Das Staatssekretariat für Migration (SEM) hat das im Frühjahr 2021 begonnene Pilotprojekt für muslimische Asylseelsorge bis Ende 2022 verlängert. Auf der Grundlage einer vertieften Evaluation durch das Schweizerische Zentrum für Islam und Gesellschaft (SZIG) der Universität Freiburg soll geprüft werden, wie sich muslimische Seelsorge dauerhaft einführen lässt. Das Ziel dieser Evaluation, die im Zeitraum von Juli bis Oktober 2022 realisiert wurde, war es, herauszufinden, wie sich die muslimische Seelsorge seit der letzten Evaluation entwickelt hat. Zudem war die Studie damit beauftragt, auch die im Januar 2022 eingeführte muslimische Seelsorge im Tessin zu evaluieren. Derzeit sind sechs muslimische Seelsorgende mit einem Stellenumfang von insgesamt 315% in elf Bundesasylzentren (BAZ) in den Asylregionen Westschweiz, Zürich, Ostschweiz sowie Tessin und Zentralschweiz im Einsatz. Die formativ angelegte qualitative Evaluation basiert auf Interviews und Hearings mit insgesamt 18 Personen (Seelsorgende, Verantwortliche P&A, SEM- Verantwortliche) sowie auf neuer wissenschaftlicher Literatur, Medienberichten und weiteren Dokumenten. Sie nimmt Bedürfnisse, Potenziale und Interaktionen unterschiedlicher Stakeholder in den Blick. Ein besonderes Augenmerk richtet sich dabei auf die Weiterentwicklung des Pilotprojekts im Jahr 2022. Die Studie kommt zum Schluss, dass sich die Befunde der letzten Evaluation bestätigen lassen und dass mit der zunehmenden Etablierung der muslimischen Seelsorge in den BAZ eine bessere Kooperation mit anderen Diensten in den Zentren wie auch eine grössere Wertschätzung dieser Dienstleistung von anderen Akteuren vor Ort einhergeht. Die Seelsorgenden begleiten die Gesuchstellenden, hören ihnen bei psychischen Belastungen oder gesundheitlichen Problemen zu, trösten sie in schwierigen Lebenssituationen, nehmen ihre religiösen Anliegen wahr und ermöglichen einen kultursensiblen Umgang mit einschneidenden Ereignissen in den BAZ. Darüber hinaus nehmen sie als Respektspersonen eine Mediationsrolle ein und tragen zur Vorbeugung von Konflikten bei. Muslimische Seelsorge erweist sich damit als wichtige Ressource, von der nicht nur die Gesuchstellenden, sondern auch die BAZ als ganze profitieren. Mehrere Befragte bekundeten, dass die muslimische Seelsorge nicht mehr aus den BAZ wegzudenken ist. So wurde in einem Fall auch das Angebot der muslimischen Seelsorge infolge einer Initiative des Betreuungspersonals auf ein weiteres BAZ ausgeweitet. Darüber hinaus konnte im zweiten Projektjahr die interreligiöse und interprofessionelle Zusammenarbeit mit den christlichen Seelsorgenden sowie mit dem Betreuungs-, Gesundheitsund Sicherheitspersonal vertieft werden. Der Quervergleich zeigt, dass die muslimische Seelsorge in den BAZ, in denen sie schon länger angeboten wird, besonders gut verankert ist. Im Tessin, wo erst Anfang 2022 ein muslimischer Seelsorgender seine Tätigkeit aufgenommen hat, besteht noch Bedarf an Information, Austausch und Rollenklärungen. In der Deutschschweiz arbeitet das SEM mit dem Verein QuaMS (Qualitätssicherung der Muslimischen Seelsorge in öffentlichen Institutionen) zusammen, der als Fachstelle an der Schnittstelle von öffentlichen Institutionen, Kanton und Religionsgemeinschaften breite Anerkennung geniesst. Aufgrund der Massnahmen zur Qualitätssicherung sowie der Supervisions- und Weiterbildungsmöglichkeiten für die Seelsorgenden im Rahmen von QuaMS ergibt sich hier ein Mehrwert, der in den anderen Sprachregionen so nicht gegeben ist. Die Evaluation empfiehlt mit Nachdruck eine Verstetigung des Pilotprojekts und schlägt einige Massnahmen zu deren Optimierung vor. So soll die strukturelle Verankerung und die Unabhängigkeit der muslimischen Seelsorgenden gestärkt werden. Dabei soll auch die spezifische Situation in den verschiedenen Sprachregionen berücksichtigt und der Austausch zwischen diesen intensiviert werden. Muslimische und kantonale Akteure in der Westschweiz sollen ermutigt werden, aufbauend auf dort vorhandene Kompetenzen eine analoge Organisation zu QuaMS zu schaffen. Ausserdem empfiehlt die Evaluation, ein besonderes Augenmerk auf die Diversität in den Seelsorgeteams zu richten, was Geschlecht, Sprachkenntnisse und konfessionelle Profile betrifft. Weiterbildungen für die Seelsorgenden sollen sich allgemeinen Herausforderungen im Zusammenhang mit Flucht und Asyl widmen, aber auch spezifischen Fragen Raum geben, die die kulturellen Kontexte und religiösen Ressourcen von Gesuchstellenden muslimischen Glaubens betreffen. Schliesslich sollen die Verantwortlichen der BAZ den Austausch mit allen Seelsorgenden intensivieren und im Rahmen von Workshops die Teamentwicklung vorantreiben. Aufgrund des anhaltend hohen Bedarfs soll auch geprüft werden, ob eine Erhöhung des Zeitbudgets der Seelsorgenden bzw. eine Anstellung weiterer Seelsorgender sowie eine Ausweitung auf weitere BAZ möglich ist.

Swan Island : monitoring and adaptive management plan. Engineer Research and Development Center (U.S.), August 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.21079/11681/45044.

Full text
Abstract:
Swan Island is a 10.12 ha island located in the Maryland waters of the Chesapeake Bay. Because of its value as a natural wave break for the town of Ewell on nearby Smith Island, as well as the ongoing erosion and subsidence of the island, in 2019 US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE)–Baltimore District placed 45,873 m³ of dredged sediment and planted 200,000 marsh plants. This restoration provided an opportunity to quantify the engineering (that is, resilience) and ecological performance of the island, postplacement. The lack of quantitative data on the performance of natural features such as islands has led to perceived uncertainties that are often cited as barriers to implementation. To address these data gaps, a multidisciplinary collaboration of five government entities identified project objectives and monitoring parameters through a series of mediated workshops and then developed a conceptual model to articulate those parameters and the linkages between them. This monitoring and adaptive management plan (MAMP) documents those monitoring parameters and procedures and can serve as an example for other scales, regions, and research questions. Documenting research and monitoring efforts may help to foster widespread acceptance of nature-based solutions such as islands.

Abstract:
The Southeast Coast Network (SECN) conducts long-term terrestrial vegetation monitoring as part of the nationwide Inventory and Monitoring Program of the National Park Service (NPS). The vegetation community vital sign is one of the primary-tier resources identified by SECN park managers, and it is currently conducted on 15 network parks (DeVivo et al. 2008). Monitoring plants and their associated communities over time allows for targeted understanding of ecosystems within the SECN geography, which provides managers information about the degree of change within their parks’ natural vegetation. 2019 marks the first year of conducting this monitoring effort on four SECN parks, including Timucuan Ecological and Historic Preserve (TIMU). A total of 23 vegetation plots were established in the park in May and June. Data collected in each plot include species richness across multiple spatial scales, species-specific cover and constancy, species-specific woody stem seedling/sapling counts and adult tree (greater than 10 centimeters [3.9 inches (in)]) diameter at breast height (DBH), overall tree health, landform, soil, observed disturbance, and woody biomass (i.e., fuel load) estimates. This report summarizes the baseline (year 1) terrestrial vegetation data collected at Timucuan Ecological and Historic Preserve in 2019. Data were stratified across three dominant broadly defined habitats within the park (Coastal Plain Nonalluvial Wetlands, Coastal Plain Open Uplands and Woodlands, and Maritime Upland Forests and Shrublands) and three land parcels (Cedar Point, Theodore Roosevelt, and Thomas Creek). Noteworthy findings include: A total of 157 vascular plant taxa (species or lower) were observed across 23 vegetation plots, including nine species not previously known from the park. Three plots were located in the footprint of the Yellow Bluff Fire, and were sampled only two weeks following the fire event. Muscadine (Muscadinia rotundifolia), cat greenbrier (Smilax glauca), water oak (Quercus nigra), and swamp tupelo (Nyssa biflora) were the most frequently encountered species in Coastal Plain Nonalluvial Wetland habitat; saw palmetto (Serenoa repens), slash pine (Pinus elliottii), and gallberry (Ilex glabra) were the most frequently encountered species in Coastal Plain Open Upland and Woodland habitat; and Darlington oak (Quercus hemisphaerica), Spanish moss (Tillandsia usenoides), and red bay (Persea borbonia) were the most frequently encountered species in Maritime Upland Forests and Shrublands. There were no exotic species of the Florida Exotic Pest Plant Council list of invasive plants (FLEPPC 2020) observed on any of these plots. Both red bay and swamp bay (Persea palustris) were largely absent from the tree stratum in these plots; however, they were present (occasionally in high abundance) in the seedling and sapling strata across all habitat types. Buckthorn bully (Sideroxylon lycioides)—listed as Endangered in the state of Florida by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS 2020)—was observed in three Maritime Upland Forest and Shrubland plots. The tree strata in each broadly defined habitat were dominated by the following species: Coastal Plain Nonalluvial Wetlands-loblolly bay (Gordonia lasianthus) Coastal Plain Open Uplands and Woodlands-longleaf pine (Pinus palustris) Maritime Upland Forests and Shrublands-oaks (Quercus sp.) Most stems within the tree strata exhibited healthy vigor and only moderate dieback across all habitat types. However, there was a large amount of standing dead trees in plots within Maritime Upland Forests and Shrublands. Downed woody biomass (fuel loads) were highest in the Cedar Point and Thomas Creek land parcels.

Abstract:
Infectious disease is one of the most serious causes of economic loss in all sectors of aquaculture. There is a critical need to understand the molecular basis for protection against infectious disease so that safer, more reliable and more cost-effective strategies can be designed for their control. As part of this effort, the major goal of our BARD project was to determine the importance of endobiotics as a defense against protozoan ectoparasites in fish. Endobiotics, or antimicrobial polypeptides, are peptides and small proteins that are increasingly recognized as having a vital role in the innate defense of virtually all animals. One objective of our BARD project was to determine the antiparasitic potency of one specific group of endobiotics that were isolated from hybrid striped bass (Morone saxatilis x M chrysops). We found that these endobiotics, which we had previously named histone-like proteins (HLPs), exhibited potent activity against Amyloodinium and that the putative levels of HLPs in the skin were well within the levels that we found to be lethal to the parasite in vitro. We also found evidence for the presence of similar antibiotics in sea bream (Sparus aurata) and Mediterranean sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax). We also examined the effect of chronic stress on the expression of HLP in fish and found that HLP levels were dramatically decreased after only one week of a crowding/high ammonia sublethal stress. We also began to explore the feasibility of upregulating endobiotics via immunostimulation. However, we did not pursue this objective as fully as we originally intended because we spent a much larger effort than originally anticipated on the last objective, the attempted isolation of novel endobiotics from hybrid striped bass. In this regard, we purified and identified four new peptide endobiotics. These endobiotics, which we have named piscidins (from "Pisces" meaning fish), have potent, broad-spectrum activity against a number of both fish and human pathogens. This includes not only parasites but also bacteria. We also demonstrated that these peptides are present in the mast cell. This was the first time that the mast cell, the most common tissue granulocyte in vertebrates, was shown to possess any type of endobiotic. This finding has important implications in explaining the possible function of mast cells in the immune response of vertebrates. In summary, the research we have accomplished in this BARD project has demonstrated that endobiotics in fish have potent activity against many serious pathogens in aquaculture and that there is considerable potential to use these compounds as stress indicators in aquaculture. There is also considerable potential to use some of these compounds in other areas of medicine, including treatment of serious infectious diseases of humans and animals.

Abstract:
During the evolutionary process of speciation in plants, naturally occurring barriers to reproduction have developed that affect the transfer of genes within and between related species. These barriers can occur at several different levels beginning with pollination-barriers and ending with hybrid-breakdown. The interaction between pollen and pistils presents one of the major barriers to intra- and inter-specific crosses and is the focus of this research project. Our long-term goal in this research proposal was defined to resolve questions on recognition and communication during pollen-pistil interactions in the extended tomato family. In this context, this work was initiated and planned to study the potential involvement of tomato pollen-specific receptor-like kinases (RLK's) in the interaction between pollen and pistils. By special permission from BARD the objectives of this research were extended to include studies on pollen-pistil interactions and pollination barriers in horticultural crops with an emphasis on citrus. Functional characterization of 2 pollen-specific RLK's from tomato was carried out. The data shows that both encode functional kinases that were active as recombinant proteins. One of the kinases was shown to accumulate mainly after pollen germination and to be phosphorylated in-vitro in pollen membranes as well as in-vivo. The presence of style extract resulted in dephosphorylation of the RLK, although no species specificity was observed. This data implies a role for at least one RLK in pollination events following pollen germination. However, a transgenic plant analysis of the RLK's comprising overexpression, dominant-negative and anti-sense constructs failed to provide answers on their role in pollination. While genetic effects on some of the plants were observed in both the Israeli and American labs, no clear functional answers were obtained. An alternative approach to addressing function was pursued by screening for an artificial ligand for the receptor domain using a peptide phage display library. An enriched peptide sequence was obtained and will be used to design a peptide-ligand to be tested for its effect o pollen germination and tube growth. Self-incompatibility (SI) in citrus was studied on 3 varieties of pummelo. SI was observed using fluorescence microscopy in each of the 3 varieties and compatibility relations between varieties was determined. An initial screen for an S-RNase SI mechanism yielded only a cDNA homologous to the group of S-like RNases, suggesting that SI results from an as yet unknown mechanism. 2D gel electrophoresis was applied to compare pollen and style profiles of different compatibility groups. A "polymorphic" protein band from style extracts was observed, isolated and micro-sequenced. Degenerate primers designed based on the peptide sequence date will be used to isolate the relevant genes i order to study their potential involvement in SI. A study on SI in the apple cultivar Top red was initiated. SI was found, as previously shown, to be complete thus requiring a compatible pollinator variety. A new S-RNase allele was discovered fro Top red styles and was found to be highly homologous to pear S-RNases, suggesting that evolution of these genes pre-dated speciation into apples and pears but not to other Rosaceae species. The new allele provides molecular-genetic tools to determine potential pollinators for the variety Top red as well as a tool to break-down SI in this important variety.
