The genetic architecture of floral trait divergence between hummingbird- and self-pollinated monkeyflower (Mimulus) species.

Pollination syndromes are a key component of flowering plant diversification, prompting questions about the architecture of single traits and genetic coordination among traits. Here, we investigate the genetics of extreme floral divergence between naturally hybridizing monkeyflowers, Mimulus parishii (self-pollinated) and M. cardinalis (hummingbird-pollinated). We mapped quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for 18 pigment, pollinator reward/handling, and dimensional traits in parallel sets of F2 hybrids plus recombinant inbred lines and generated nearly isogenic lines (NILs) for two dimensional traits, pistil length and corolla size. Our multi-population approach revealed a highly polygenic basis (n = 190 QTLs total) for pollination syndrome divergence, capturing minor QTLs even for pigment traits with leading major loci. There was significant QTL overlap within pigment and dimensional categories. Nectar volume QTLs clustered with those for floral dimensions, suggesting a partially shared module. The NILs refined two pistil length QTLs, only one of which has tightly correlated effects on other dimensional traits. An overall polygenic architecture of floral divergence is partially coordinated by genetic modules formed by linkage (pigments) and likely pleiotropy (dimensions plus nectar). This work illuminates pollinator syndrome diversification in a model radiation and generates a robust framework for molecular and ecological genomics.

Management of mandibular angle and body fractures using miniplates and 3D plates.

Mandibular angle fractures have the greatest recorded rate of postoperative complications of any mandibular location and hence they present an especially difficult task for surgeons. Therefore, it is of interest to compare the conventional miniplates and three dimensional (3D) plates in management of mandibular angle fracture and body fractures.60 patients with isolated non-comminuted mandibular angle fractures and body fractures were randomly assigned into two groups by lottery. Utilizing Champy's osteosynthesis standards, group one (n = 30) received treatment with 2-mm standard miniplate and group two (n = 30) had treatment with open reduction and internal fixation utilizing 2-mm 3D locking stainless steel plates. The mean operative time was greater in conventional miniplate category as compared to three dimensional plates. Need for postoperative occlusion correction was lesser n 3 dimensional plate category. The incidence of postoperative infection was comparable in both categories. Incidental tooth damage was lesser in three-dimensional plate's category three-dimensional locking plates are an alternate strategy that has a comparable result profile to miniplates.

Autism Spectrum Disorder Diagnostic Scale – Revised

The main aim of this study is to empirically prove the Diagnostic Accuracy Scale to diagnosis of people with autism spectrum disorders (ASD), the sample of participants has been extended, paying special attention to students over 14 years of age, adapting the activities and, therefore, the indices-criteria of the observation factors. A total of 94 students have participated in the study, whose coded data allow us to corroborate the data found in the initial scale, facilitating a precise and exhaustive diagnosis of the disorder by levels. The diagnostic conclusions were based on the gaussian curve found from the typical scores obtained from the direct scores obtained in the ten dimensions of the analysis, made up of three dimensional categories, whose percentage weighting is as follows: 1) the procedural category (60%), 2) the social dimensional category (20%), and 3) the behavioural dimensional category (20%), the overall sum of which allows the diagnostic conclusions of the disorder to be drawn, both at a general level and according to the specific level of ASD. The percentage levels are justified by the empirical studies of the study. Thus, the stepwise linear regression analysis carried out includes two dimensions corresponding to the procedural category as basic predictors of the disorder: I) semantic retrieval (Beta: .90, R2: .82), and II) relationship between retrieval (Beta: .57) and interconcepts or relationships (R2: .82). 57) and interconcepts or relationships between information (Beta: .35), being the overall constant (Beta: .92, R2: .84), ahead of the social or behavioural dimensions, which supports the importance of the procedural dimension, especially related to the development of nodes or relationships between information content in determining the specific criteria for the diagnosis of ASD.

О ДИСТАНЦИИ

The subject of the article is distance, and applications of its analysis, namely: distancial and proximal phenomena and research. The research method is exemplification, explanation of phenomena through characteristic examples, here – distances. Distance has different meanings: distance, detachment, distinction, retreat, distance, alienation, etc., having different natures: physical, figurative, religious, logical, etc. However, if understanding comes late, through distance, then what is the use of it? Depending on the understanding of the infinite, there are two types of distance: 1) a distance leading to an unattainable perfection, an ideal, here infinity turns into emptiness; 2) a distancethat includes the finite and emptiness as ideal moments of movement. The distance is determined through a series of successive approximations, or «near» and «far». In other words, the definition of distance coincides with the definition of truth. For example, K. Levi-Strauss showed that the savage thought as well as modern man, progress occurred not in thinking, but in living conditions. Here people of distant epochs come closer together, through finding a distance between them – this is indicated by the principle of the constancy of distance. An example of a distal study is the definition of the «power distance index», the proximity or remoteness of power from the people. The distances between the past, present and future have ideological significance. Research on this issue notes the reduction of the present time through growth, pressure and acceleration of innovation, alienation from the past and present. A. Einstein, denied the phenomenon of irreversibility, and believed that the division of time into the past, present and future is an illusion. The greatest distance between near and far is created by religion. The article proposes a new trichotomy of truth./false/faith, where faith is the sphere of meaning. Faith forms a distance that transcends human experience – transcendence. Distance and understanding should have a measure – the distance should not be too close or too far, and also go (slip away) into the empty otherworldliness of infinity. Distance correlates with the path, if the path is a necessary condition for existence and understanding, then distance should be a sufficient reason for the path (both understanding and existence). The concept of distance can be attributed to the «dimensional categories» of the synthetic paradigm (the expression of D. V. Pivovarov).

ОСОБЛИВОСТІ РОЗПОДІЛУ МАКРО- ТА МІКРОПЛАСТИКУ В МЕЖАХ ПЛЯЖЕВИХ ЗОН ВНУТРІШНЬОКОНТИНЕНТАЛЬНИХ МОРІВ (НА ПРИКЛАДІ ПЛЯЖЕВОЇ ЗОНИ М. ЮЖНЕ, УКРАЇНА)

Background. Suburban beaches within the Ukrainian coast of the northwestern shelf of the Black Sea, taking into account the density of industrial and social infrastructure, the proximity to the confluence of large rivers with significant catchment areas into the sea, are indicative of objects for carrying out regulatory studies of the distribution of plastic waste and microplastics in the components of the environment . Methods. The regularities of the distribution of plastic waste and microplastics within the coastal zone of the north-western part of the Black Sea were determined using the example of test sites in the city of Yuzhne (Odesa region, Ukraine). To analyze the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of the synthetic material and to determine the features of its formation, distribution and accumulation in the coastal zone, the method of filtering water flows of the surface runoff was used. Visual analysis of plastic polymers was performed and their types were determined using spectroscopy and OPUS 7.5 software. Results. The results of Raman spectroscopy studies proved that the majority of selected samples of macro- and microplastics are represented by polypropylene, polyethylene and polystyrene. It has been confirmed that the main part of the plastic has a high migration capacity within the coastal areas, which is determined by the transport of runoff during periods of wave activity and the absence of a permanent component in the sand layer within the beach. It was determined that for different dimensional categories of plastic fragments, their species composition changes radically. Polymeric synthetic objects larger than 1 cm are represented mainly by polypropylene, polystyrene, and high-density polyethylene products. In the category of finer dimensions of plastic fragments, both the species spectrum of polymers and their belonging to different economic segments of use is expanding. Synthetic fibers, which make up the majority of objects of the smallest particle size fraction - less than 0.1 mm - are present everywhere and in significant quantitative composition. Conclusions. Research shows that the parameters of the coastline (width, length, slope, shape, presence of vegetation, anthropogenic variability), hydrogen processes and the geological structure of the coastal zone have a significant impact on the formation of the conditions for the accumulation of plastics and microplastics. In order to further study the factors influencing the pollution of the beach area by plastic products and microplastics, monitoring studies are needed within the presented test areas.

INTEGRATION OF KANO MODEL & QFD TO EVALUATE MINIMUM SERVICE STANDARDS ON PENATARAN TRAIN DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC

Restrictions on people activities due to COVID-19 have caused many train trips to be canceled. In addition, people are still afraid to use public transportation because it is considered a breeding ground for viruses. Therefore, the protocol for preventing the spread of COVID-19 in the health aspect must be carried out properly on rail transport to reduce people's worries. This study aims to evaluate the minimum service standards related to the COVID-19 health protocol on Penataran Train while adopting new habits. There are fifteen research variables based on regulations from several institutions focused on this research. 417 respondents filled out the online questionnaire. Kano model analysis determines the best minimum service standards based on respondents' perceptions. Then, the quality function deployment analysis is used to obtain service improvement priorities. The results showed that seven variables were in the One dimensional category, and three were in the Attractive category. Of the ten variables that become ideal service standards, provision of hand sanitizers, cleaning trains with disinfectant, and checking body temperature must receive special priority. Social distancing facilities on the floor and information on preventing the spread of COVID-19 via visual are two of the recommended services to be implemented on Penataran Train during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Analisis Kualitas Pelayanan dan Kepercayaan Konsumen Bus Rapid Trans Semarang di masa Pandemi Covid-19

The city of Semarang as the capital city of Central Java Province is included in the category of a metropolitan city because it has a population of more than 1.5 million people, so the level of activity and mobility of the community is increasing. The Semarang City Government through the Semarang City Transportation Service has succeeded in developing the Trans Semarang Rapid Transit Bus as a mass public transportation program that is more comfortable, safe, fast, cheap, and mass in nature. However, in 2020 the Covid-19 pandemic emerged which had a very large impact, even though the number of passengers decreased during the Covid-19 pandemic, the Semarang BRT continued to serve passengers and continue to provide the best service for passengers by implementing health protocols as recommended by the government. The population of this study was BRT Semarang users with a sample of 100 respondents. By using the Kano model approach, the researcher uses 31 service attributes which are composed of service quality, trust, and customer satisfaction variables. From the results of this study, 26 attributes fall into the Attractive category or pleasure attribute (A) and 5 attributes fall into the One dimensional category or the expected attribute (O). so that BRT Semarang must improve the quality of service better by evaluating employee performance and making improvements and improving service strategies, providing safe service quality by implementing health protocols for all consumer characteristics, especially during this Covid-19 pandemic.

Properties and behavior of light hydrophobic concrete

In concrete mixing plan, we usually encounter a combination of aggregates including sand, the amount of cement, which is actually the criterion of concrete grade, and the volume of water consumed. Changes in the quality and quantity of these components actually create the usual types of concrete. But the attitude that formed the basis of this research is based on the change in the nature of the components of the concrete mixing design. Removal of water and cement from the mixing plan and replacement of polymeric materials as well as the use of mixed LECA aggregates instead of aggregates is the basis of this research. In this paper, by examining and selecting LECA grain style and pre-treatment (hydrophobicity and coupling), in a constant ratio of resin, concrete samples were selected from three dimensional categories. After making the samples, flexural strength test was performed on them and the results were analyzed. Various compounds and processes have so far been proposed in the lightweight concrete mixing scheme. The distinctive point of this study is the use of lightweight expanded clay concrete with heat-treated acrylic polymer (crosslinking constituents) and related coupling agents. It is also important to select and apply the right amount of hydrophobic nanoparticles for hydrophilic surface hydrophobicity. Hydrophobicity was possible due to the non-polar nature of the acrylic polymer and the use of hydrophobic nanomaterials.

STRUCTURE AND SEMANTICS OF THE ADDRESSEE IN THE “NATURAL” POEMS OF K. MYRZALIEV

The appeal to the theory of the internal addressee in a poetic text is an actual direction in modern literary studies. It will help to solve both the specific task and contribute to the elucidation of the phenomena of the dialogical nature of the poetic text, as well as to the understanding of poetry as a whole. A poetic text has specific qualities, among which addressability is important. In the structure of a poetic text, it is a multi dimensional category that participates in the formati on of lyri cal meani ng, the i mage of the addressee and the i ntenti ons of the addressee. This article d scusses the poetic addressee as a consequence and implementati on of the category of addressability. The addressee refers to the main receptive paradigm involved in the structural modeling of the text and the expression of the author's concept. The concept of “addressee”, being a system, i s a phenomenon of multiple ambivalence: it si multaneously implies form and content, design and implementation, structure and semantics.

Clinical Features of Psychotic Disorders: Comparing Categorical and Dimensional Models.

ObjectiveDespite research demonstrating the value of dimensional approaches, standard systems for classifying psychotic disorders rely primarily on categorization of patients into distinct diagnoses. We present the first study comparing analyses of dimensional features, categories, and standard diagnoses, all derived from the same sample.MethodsUsing symptom ratings from 934 patients hospitalized for psychosis, we examined dimensional models, fit using factor analysis, categorical models, fit to factor‐based scores from the dimensional model, and their correspondence with DSM‐defined diagnoses. We compared the ability of each model to discriminate patients' assignment to medication regimen as a clinical validator.ResultsDimensional modeling identified four factors (manic, depressive, negative symptoms, and positive symptoms), which corresponded to factors in prior studies and appeared robust to statistical approach. Scores based on these factors overlapped substantially among DSM diagnoses. Patients assigned to clusters had less overlap in factor‐based scores. However, categorical models were sensitive to statistical approach. The addition of DSM diagnoses, but not cluster assignments, improved the fits of models with dimensional scores alone as the clinical predictors for some medication classes.ConclusionsThe results highlight the variability of symptom presentation within DSM‐defined diagnostic categories, the utility of symptom dimensions or factors, and a potential lack of robustness of data‐driven categorical approaches. Findings support initiatives to develop updated diagnostic systems that complement categorical classification of psychotic illness with factors representing dimensional ratings of symptoms.

Pigeons exhibit flexibility but not rule formation in dimensional learning, stimulus generalization, and task switching.

A prominent model of categorization (Ashby, Alfonso-Reese, Turken, & Waldron, 1998) posits that 2 separate mechanisms-one declarative, one associative-can be recruited in category learning. These 2 systems can effectively be distinguished by 2 task structures: rule-based (RB) tasks are unidimensional and encourage analytic processing, whereas information-integration (II) tasks are bidimensional and encourage nonanalytic associative learning. Humans and nonhuman primates have been reported to learn RB tasks more quickly than II tasks; however, pigeons and rats have shown no learning speed differences are thus believed to lack the declarative system. In the present trio of experiments, we further explored pigeons' dimensional category learning. We replicated the finding that pigeons learn RB and II tasks at equal speeds. Further, we found that stimulus generalization performance was equivalent on both tasks. We also explored the effect of switching from one task to another. Task switches between phases of training as well as within individual training sessions posed little difficulty for pigeons; they quickly and flexibly switched their categorization responses with no cost in choice speed or accuracy. Together, our data indicate that, although pigeons may lack the capacity to form explicit dimensional rules, their associative learning system is both powerful and flexible. Further exploration of this associative system would help us better appreciate possible contributions of the declarative system. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2020 APA, all rights reserved).

Tropical friezes and the index in higher homological algebra

AbstractCluster categories and cluster algebras encode two dimensional structures. For instance, the Auslander–Reiten quiver of a cluster category can be drawn on a surface, and there is a class of cluster algebras determined by surfaces with marked points.Cluster characters are maps from cluster categories (and more general triangulated categories) to cluster algebras. They have a tropical shadow in the form of so-called tropical friezes, which are maps from cluster categories (and more general triangulated categories) to the integers.This paper will define higher dimensional tropical friezes. One of the motivations is the higher dimensional cluster categories of Oppermann and Thomas, which encode (d + 1)-dimensional structures for an integer d ⩾ 1. They are (d + 2)-angulated categories, which belong to the subject of higher homological algebra.We will define higher dimensional tropical friezes as maps from higher cluster categories (and more general (d + 2)-angulated categories) to the integers. Following Palu, we will define a notion of (d + 2)-angulated index, establish some of its properties, and use it to construct higher dimensional tropical friezes.

Banking Competition and Bank Size: Some Evidence from Italy

This paper assesses the degree of competition of the Italian banking industry and investigates whether there are differences in the competitive behaviour related to the size of the intermediaries. Competition is measured using the Bresnahan-Lau model, estimated on a panel dataset of 125 observations over the period 1989-2013. Annual data are collected from the Bank of Italy, and are aggregated into dimensional categories: major, large, medium, small, and minor banks. The results suggest that the sector is rather competitive and that the level of competitiveness has increased over the observed period. Besides, the events occurred in the Nineties seem to have had a structural effect on banks’ market power, as well as the aftermath of the recent financial crisis. The estimates also point out that smaller banks enjoy a higher degree of market power, which is consistent with the relationship lending that characterizes the interaction between banks and borrowers in Italy.

Higher Dimensional Categories: Induction on Extensivity

In this paper, we explore, enrich, and otherwise mildly generalise a prominent definition of weak n-category by Batanin, as refined by Leinster, to give a definition of weak n-dimensional V-category, with a view to applications in programming semantics. We require V to be locally presentable and to be (infinitarily) extensive, a condition which ensures that coproducts are suitably well-behaved. Our leading example of such a V is the category ω-Cpo, ω-Cpo-enriched bicategories already having been used in denotational semantics.We illuminate the implicit use of recursion in Leinster's definition, generating the higher dimensions by a process of repeated enrichment. The key fact is that if V is a locally presentable and extensive category, then so are the categories of small V-graphs and small V-categories. Iterating, this produces categories of n-dimensional V-graphs and strict n-dimensional V-categories that are also locally presentable and extensive. We show that the free strict n-dimensional V-category monad on the category of n-dimensional V-graphs is cartesian. This, along with results due to Garner, allows us to follow Batanin and Leinster's approach for defining weak n-categories. In the case that V = Set, the resulting definition of weak n-dimensional V-category agrees with Leinster's definition.

PENILAIAN KEPUASAN PENGGUNA TERHADAP ATRIBUT PRODUK DENGAN MENGGUNAKAN MODEL KANO; STUDI KASUS DESAIN INKUBATOR BAYI

A Newborns need special attention because it takes time to adapt to the outside world. In accordance with the standard post-neonatal procedures, newborns should be incorporated into the incubator within a certain period of time according to the infant's health level. Infant incubator as a medical device used to care for newborns, often get complaints from doctors and child nurses. The complaint indicates consumer dissatisfaction with infant incubator products in the hospital. Broadly speaking, complaints against infant incubators lie in inappropriate designs. To overcome these complaints the researchers apply the method of Kano to determine the satisfaction frome every technical characteristics. Through the mapping can be seen that from the seven attributes that become the question, there are two attributes that are in the category of Attractive namely "Additional Functions on Infant Incubator the Place Tube Oxygen" and "Size Door Holes is 15 cm". There is one attribute that is in the One Dimensional category that is "Infant Incubator Price Rp 10.000.000". While the four attributes are in the category Must be "Infant Incubator Dimension 70 cm x 50 cm x 40 cm", "The distance of the floor from the base of the compartment 100 cm", "Compartment infant incubator materials are Acrylic" and "The position of the controller on the infant incubator is in top right side ".
