    Abstract Chronobiologists and sleep researchers often need to estimate various rhythm and sleep parameters from locomotor activity data from different organisms. The available open-source or expensive paid tools do not offer consolidated analysis and visualization options in one bundle, are often cumbersome for users unfamiliar with coding, offer very low customization options, introduce sources of human errors by requiring users to manually pick period and power values from periodogram plots, and do not generate reproducible reports. We present VANESSA, a family of cross-platform apps written in R, which, in our opinion, have several advantages compared with available tools-(a) open-source; (b) automatic period-power detection; (c) time-series filtering and smoothing; (d) high-resolution publication-quality figures with dynamic coloring, resizing, and light/dark shading; (e) reproducible code-report generation; (f) analysis and visualization of multiple monitor files, defining genotypes and replicates separately; and (g) sleep profile analysis, various sleep parameter estimations, quantification, bout analysis, and latency analysis. The current version of the app is for data acquired through

    Abstract Sodium (Na) and arsenic (As) toxicity were monitored by hyperaccumulation of metals in Salvinia natans L. with 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) induction. Salvinia was recorded with significant bioaccumulation of those metals with de-folding of cellular attributes in sustenance under toxic environment. 2,4-D priming has revised the growth components like net assimilation rate and relative water content to register initial plants’ survival against Na and As. Proline biosynthesis supported in the maintenance of osmotic adjustment and plants sustained better activity through subdued electrolytic leakage. Oxidative stress due to both Na and As exposure is responsible for induction under significant moderation of lipid peroxidation and protein carbonization by 2,4-D application was evident to release the stress from metal and metalloids. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) like superoxide and hydrogen peroxide accumulation were monitored with activity of NADP(H)-oxidase. However, it was downregulated by 2,4-D to check the oxidative damages. Superoxide dismutase and peroxidases were significantly moderated to reduce the oxidative degradation for both metals with 2,4-D induction. Glutathione metabolism and recycling of ascorbate with monodehydroascorbate activity were other features to maintain the redox homeostasis for metal toxicity. At the molecular level, polymorphic variations of concern genes in redox cascades demarked significantly for those two metals and established the biomarker for those metals, respectively. As a whole, the biocompatibility of auxin herbicide in Salvinia may raise the possibility for auxin metabolism and thereby, the bioaccumulation to Na and As vis-à-vis tolerance for ecological safety is established.

    Abstract We investigate the combinatorial discrepancy of geometric set systems having bounded shallow cell complexity in the \emph{Beck-Fiala} setting, where each point belongs to at most $t$ ranges. For set systems with shallow cell complexity $\psi(m,k)=g(m)k^{c}$, where $(i)$ $g(m) = o(m^{\varepsilon})$ for any $\varepsilon\in (0,1],$ $(ii)$ $\psi$ is non-decreasing in $m$, and $(iii)$ $c>0$ is independent of $m$ and $k$, we get a discrepancy bound of \[ O\left(\sqrt{\left(\log n+\left(t^{c}g(n)\right)^{\frac{1}{1+c}}\right)\log n}\right).\] For $t=\omega(\log^2 n)$, in several cases, such as for set systems of points and half-planes / disks / pseudo-disks in $\mathbb{R}^2$, points and orthants in $\mathbb{R}^3$ etc., these bounds are $o(\sqrt{t})$, which verifies (and improves upon) the conjectured bound of Beck and Fiala~\emph{(Disc. Appl. Math., 1981)}. Our bounds are obtained by showing the existence of \emph{matchings with low crossing number}, using the multiplicative weights update method of Welzl \emph{(SoCG, 1988)}, together with the recent bound of Mustafa \emph{(Disc. Comp. Geom., 2015)} on \emph{shallow packings} of set systems in terms of their shallow cell complexity. For set systems of shallow cell complexity $\psi(m,k)=m^{c_1}g(m)k^{c}$, we obtain matchings with crossing number at most \[ O\left(\left(n^{c_1}g(n)t^{c}\right)^{\frac{1}{1+c_1+c}}\right).\] These are of independent interest.

    Abstract COVID-19 has destabilized economies, lives all over the globe with devastating impacts. Physical and mental health suffered hugely due to this pandemic. Moreover, educational institutes were forced to shift from offline to online mode. This study aims to identify critical societal constructs which got impacted due to the COVID-19 pandemic in India and Bangladesh. Further, a comparative analysis has been carried out to assess these impacts between these two countries from a social science point of view. A cross-sectional study has been conducted through a structured questionnaire based on pilot study. Google Survey form link of questionnaire was active from March 15, 2020 to July 14, 2020 in which 1023 responses were received with a response rate of 54%. After the elimination of missing responses, 802 complete responses were finally coded on 48 variables including demographic profile of the respondents. Factor analysis is used to identify critical constructs of the study whereas hypothesis testing to carry out for comparative understanding. The study found that COVID-19 pandemic has severely impact on psychological, educational, economic, and social aspects of both countries whereas Bangladesh has significant adverse impact than India. Economic stimulus program such as tax exemption, EMI moratoriums, mental health training, E-learning, low interest rate of soft loan disbursement are noteworthy requirement to overcome the adverse impact of COVID-19.

    Abstract High-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC), the deadliest ovarian cancer, alone accounts for 90% of all its subtypes. Characterized by hallmark mutation of TP53, HGSOC show diverse molecular etiology. HGSOC can arise from both ovarian epithelium as well as the fimbrial epithelium of the fallopian tube. Ovulation induced reactive oxygen species, follicular fluid associated growth factor induced stemness, deregulation of hormone receptors like ER, FSHR, AR and hormones like FSH, LH, prolonged ovulation cycle, use of oral contraceptives are agonists of HGSOC while parity, breastfeeding provide protective effect from HGSOC development. Apart from a generic TP53 mutation, mutation of BRCA1/2, RAD51, BRIP1, PALB2, CHEK2, RAD50 etc., were reportedly associated with development of HGSOC. Epigenetic events like methylation of RASSF1A of RAS signaling pathway,OR51L1, OR51I1, OR51F1 etc. has been reported in HGSOC. Micro-RNAs like miR-1290, miR 27-a-3p miR23a, miR205 were reportedly upregulated in HGSOC. Amongst its cognate subtypes viz. differentiated, immunoreactive, mesenchymal, and proliferative, mesenchymal, and proliferative show worst prognosis. A system biology approach showed five major altered pathways in HGSOC, namely, RB, PI3K/RAS, NOTCH, HRR and FOXM1 signaling. For chemonaive patients, drugs that helps in efflux of reduced glutathione or prevent the redox coupling of GSH-GSSG, like Cisplatin, could be considered as the best therapeutic choice for HGSOC. For patients with BRCA1/2 mutations, PARP inhibitors alone or with Bevacizumab can be effective. Immune checkpoint inhibitors could be effective against immunoreactive subtypes. Identification of genes deregulated in chemoresistance could provide better insights in dealing with the disease.

    Abstract Greenstone et al. examine the effect of the introduction of automatic air pollution monitoring on the reporting of local air pollution in China. Using 654 regression discontinuity designs (RDDs) based on city-level variation in the day that monitoring was automated, they find an immediate and lasting increase of 35 percent in reported PM10 concentrations post-automation. Moreover, they find that automation's introduction increases online searches for face masks and air filters by 200 percent and 28 percent, respectively, using an RDD. Results are consistent when using an event study design. First, we were able to computationally replicate the results. Second, we find that results are robust to more flexible specifications of the weather variables, to re-constructed weather variables using the same matching procedure as the authors (i.e., closest station) and meteorological data with additional weather stations, to alternative construction of the weather variables using an inverse distance weighted approach of the surrounding weather stations, and to more flexible choices of fixed effects (up to the city level). Finally, we find limited evidence of discontinuity in objective measures of ground pollution (i.e., AOD) for a sub-sample using alternative weather variables. The estimate, however, is economically insignificant. Moreover, no discontinuity is observed in the full sample. Therefore, we believe this result does not invalidate the original study's findings.
