Identifying the Causes of Unexplained Dyspnea at High Altitude Using Normobaric Hypoxia with Echocardiography

Exposure to high altitude results in hypobaric hypoxia, leading to physiological changes in the cardiovascular system that may result in limiting symptoms, including dyspnea, fatigue, and exercise intolerance. However, it is still unclear why some patients are more susceptible to high-altitude symptoms than others. Hypoxic simulation testing (HST) simulates changes in physiology that occur at a specific altitude by asking the patients to breathe a mixture of gases with decreased oxygen content. This study aimed to determine whether the use of transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) during HST can detect the rise in right-sided pressures and the impact of hypoxia on right ventricle (RV) hemodynamics and right to left shunts, thus revealing the underlying causes of high-altitude signs and symptoms. A retrospective study was performed including consecutive patients with unexplained dyspnea at high altitude. HSTs were performed by administrating reduced FiO2 to simulate altitude levels specific to patients’ history. Echocardiography images were obtained at baseline and during hypoxia. The study included 27 patients, with a mean age of 65 years, 14 patients (51.9%) were female. RV systolic pressure increased at peak hypoxia, while RV systolic function declined as shown by a significant decrease in the tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE), the maximum velocity achieved by the lateral tricuspid annulus during systole (S’ wave), and the RV free wall longitudinal strain. Additionally, right-to-left shunt was present in 19 (70.4%) patients as identified by bubble contrast injections. Among these, the severity of the shunt increased at peak hypoxia in eight cases (42.1%), and the shunt was only evident during hypoxia in seven patients (36.8%). In conclusion, the use of TTE during HST provides valuable information by revealing the presence of symptomatic, sustained shunts and confirming the decline in RV hemodynamics, thus potentially explaining dyspnea at high altitude. Further studies are needed to establish the optimal clinical role of this physiologic method.
Dietary Tomato Pectin Attenuates Hepatic Insulin Resistance and Inflammation in High-Fat-Diet Mice by Regulating the PI3K/AKT Pathway

Chronic metabolic disease is a serious global health issue, which is accompanied by impaired insulin resistance. Tomato pectin (TP) is a naturally soluble complex hetero-polysaccharide with various biological functions. However, the impact of TP on hepatic insulin resistance in a high-fat diet (HFD) and its potential mechanism remains largely unknown. The results revealed that TP treatment significantly decreased the liver weight, hepatic fat accumulation and hepatic injury in HFD-fed mice. TP also improved fasting blood glucose levels and glucose tolerance in HFD-fed mice. The underlying mechanisms involved in the inflammation, oxidative stress and insulin signaling in the liver were also investigated by RT-qPCR and western blot, which indicated that TP ameliorated hepatic insulin resistance by regulating the PI3K/AKT/GSK-3β pathway, increasing the expression of GLUT4, decreasing the expression of PECK and G6P as well as restoring antioxidant activities and suppressing the inflammation statues in HFD-fed mice. Our data showed that dietary TP has profound effects on hepatic insulin resistance, inflammation and oxidative stress, demonstrating that TP might be a promising therapeutic agent against insulin resistance and related chronic metabolic disease.
An investigation of the bluish material on Ceres

The dwarf planet Ceres shows spatially well‐defined regions, which exhibit a negative (blue) spectral slope between 0.5 and 2.5 µm. Comparisons with planetary bodies known to exhibit a blue slope and spectral properties of materials identified on Ceres's surface based on infrared wavelength signatures indicate that the spectral changes could be related to physical properties of the surface material rather than variations in its composition. The close association of bluish surface regions to fresh impact craters implies a possible relationship to an impact‐triggered alteration and/or space weathering processes. The bluish regions could be linked with blankets of ultrafine grains and partly amorphous phyllosilicates, which form larger agglomerates due to the sticky behavior of impact‐induced phyllosilicate dust and/or the amorphization of the ejecta material during the impact process. Space weathering processes (micrometeoritic impacts, temperature changes) cause a reversal of the agglutination process and a recrystallization of the surface material with time resulting in a reddening of the spectral slope.
Response of Lentil to Thiourea Application under Rain Fed Conditions of Central India

Lentil is the most widely cultivated pulse crop grown under rainfed conditions in Madhya Pradesh. The less availability of the water affects the growth and productivity of the crop. The plant growth regulators viz. thiourea known to tolerate the deficiency of moisture (Asthir et al., 2013). Plant growth regulators like sulphahydryl is well known to enhance the source sink relationship and stimulate the translocation of photo-assimilates thereby helping in effective flower initiation, fruit and seed development and ultimately enhance productivity of the crops. Growth regulator can improve the physiological efficiency of crop including photosynthetic ability and can enhance the effective partitioning of accumulates from source and sink in the field crops (Solamani et al., 2001). Thiourea is the most important of which include exogenous application of stress alleviating agents.

First Insights on the Bioaccessibility and Absorption of Anthocyanins from Edible Flowers: Wild Pansy, Cosmos, and Cornflower

Edible flowers are regaining interest among both the scientific community and the general population, not only for their appealing sensorial characteristics but also from the growing evidence about their health benefits. Among edible flowers, those that contain anthocyanins are among the most consumed worldwide. However, little is known regarding the bioaccessibility and absorption of their bioactive compounds upon ingestion. The aim of this work was to explore, for the first time, the behavior of anthocyanin-rich extracts from selected edible flowers under different food processing conditions and after ingestion using simulated digestions, as well as their absorption at the intestinal level. Overall, the results showed that the monoglucoside and rutinoside anthocyanin extracts were less stable under different pH, temperature, and time conditions as well as different digestive processes in the gastrointestinal tract. There was a prominent decrease in the free anthocyanin content after the intestinal phase, which was more pronounced for the rutinoside anthocyanin extract (78.41% decrease from the oral phase). In contrast, diglucoside and rutinoside anthocyanin extracts showed the highest absorption efficiencies at the intestinal level, of approximately 5% after 4 h of experiment. Altogether, the current results emphasize the influence of anthocyanins’ structural arrangement on both their chemical stability as well as their intestinal absorption. These results bring the first insights about the bioaccessibility and absorption of anthocyanins from wild pansy, cosmos, and cornflower and the potential outcomes of such alternative food sources.

Impact of Fibromyalgia on Alpha-2 EEG Power Spectrum in the Resting Condition: A Descriptive Correlational Study

Objective The objective of this prospective cross-sectional study was to analyze the differences between patients with fibromyalgia and non-pain controls in terms of EEG power in the eyes-closed resting state. This study also aims to evaluate potential correlations between EEG power and subjective pain. Methods The fibromyalgia patients were recruited by the Extremadura Association of Fibromyalgia (AFIBROEX) in Cáceres, Spain. Age- and sex-matched healthy controls (1:1 ratio) were recruited from university facilities and people close to the AFIBROEX by public calls. All underwent EEG during a 1-minute resting period with their eyes closed. The theta, alpha-1, alpha-2, beta-1, beta-2, and beta-3 frequency bands were analyzed by using EEGLAB. Self-reported visual analog scale pain scores were determined just prior to EEG. Results A total of 62 women participated in the study, 31 of them diagnosed with fibromyalgia and 31 healthy controls. Fibromyalgia group exhibited a significantly lower alpha-2 in C4, T3, P4, Pz, and O2 compared to the healthy controls. Interestingly, pain correlated negatively with alpha-2 in Cz, P4, and Pz only in the fibromyalgia group. Conclusion The fibromyalgia group exhibited decrease alpha-2 power in central, temporoparietal, and occipital brain areas. Furthermore, higher values of pain correlated with lower level of alpha-2 power in Cz, P4, and Pz. These findings may point the importance of alpha-2 power in pain in women with fibromyalgia.
Hidden diversity of Pestalotiopsis and Neopestalotiopsis (Amphisphaeriales, Sporocadaceae) species allied with the stromata of entomopathogenic fungi in Taiwan

﻿Abstract Pestalotiopsissensu lato, commonly referred to as pestalotiopsis-like fungi, exhibit a broad distribution and are frequently found as endophytes, saprobes and pathogens across various plant hosts. The taxa within pestalotiopsis-like fungi are classified into three genera viz. Pestalotiopsis, Pseudopestalotiopsis and Neopestalotiopsis, based on the conidial colour of their median cells and multi-locus molecular phylogenies. In the course of a biodiversity investigation focusing on pestalotiopsis-like fungi, a total of 12 fungal strains were identified. These strains were found to be associated with stromata of Beauveria, Ophiocordyceps and Tolypocladium in various regions of Taiwan from 2018 to 2021. These strains were evaluated morphologically and multi-locus phylogenetic analyses of the ITS (internal transcribed spacer), tef1-α (translation elongation factor 1-α) and tub2 (beta-tubulin) gene regions were conducted for genotyping. The results revealed seven well-classified taxa and one tentative clade in Pestalotiopsis and Neopestalotiopsis. One novel species, Pestalotiopsismanyueyuanani and four new records, N.camelliae-oleiferae, N.haikouensis, P.chamaeropis and P.hispanica, were reported for the first time in Taiwan. In addition, P.formosana and an unclassified strain of Neopestalotiopsis were identified, based on similarities of phylogeny and morphology. However, the data obtained in the present study suggest that the currently recommended loci for species delimitation of pestalotiopsis-like fungi do not deliver reliable or adequate resolution of tree topologies. The in-vitro mycelial growth rates of selected strains from these taxa had an optimum temperature of 25 °C, but growth ceased at 5 °C and 35 °C, while all the strains grew faster under alkaline than acidic or neutral pH conditions. This study provides the first assessment of pestalotiopsis-like fungi, associated with entomopathogenic taxa.

Circulation controls on southern African precipitation in coupled models: The role of the Angola Low

In southern Africa, models from the latest Coupled Model Intercomparison Project produce a wide variety of rainfall climatologies. Differences between models in rainfall amount reach 70% in the rainy season (December–February; DJF), and the median model overestimates rainfall by between 15 and 40% throughout the annual cycle. This paper investigates the role of an understudied regional circulation feature, the Angola Low, in differentiating between model estimates of precipitation. In austral spring, the Angola Low is a heat low, driven by strong surface heating whereas in DJF it is more similar to a tropical low and is associated with moist instability. In the austral summer, we find that the simulated strength of the Angola Low is associated with between 40 and 60% of the intermodel variability in model mean rainfall across the subcontinent. The relationship is particularly strong along a northwest, southeast axis aligned from Angola down to the Mozambican Channel. Along this axis, models with stronger Angola Lows simulate enhanced, by up to 50 g kg−1 ms−1, northeasterly and northwesterly moisture transport. The enhanced southward moisture flux in models with relatively deep Angola Lows increases the rate of moisture convergence in central areas of the subcontinent and reduces moisture divergence across the Mozambican coast. The results highlight the need to better understand the links between the Angola Low and southern African rainfall and suggest that improving the simulation of the Angola Low can help to constrain model estimates of southern African rainfall.

Global view of the E region irregularity and convection velocities in the high‐latitude Southern Hemisphere

Occurrence of the E region plasma irregularities is investigated using two Super Dual Auroral Radar Network (SuperDARN) South Pole (SPS) and Zhongshan (ZHO) radars that sample the same magnetic latitude deep within the high‐latitude plasma convection pattern but from two opposite directions. It is shown that the SPS and ZHO velocity distributions and their variations with the magnetic local time are different, with each distribution being asymmetric; i.e., a particular velocity polarity is predominant. This asymmetry in the E region velocity distribution is associated with the bump‐on‐tail of the distribution near the nominal ion acoustic speed Cs that is most likely due to the Farley‐Buneman instability (FBI) echoes or an inflection point of the distribution below nominal Cs that is most likely due to the gradient drift instability echoes. In contrast, the distribution of the convection velocity component was found to be symmetric, i.e., with no bump‐on‐tail or an inflection point, but with a bias (i.e., uniform shift) toward a particular polarity. It is demonstrated that the asymmetry in the convection pattern between the eastward and westward zonal components is unexpectedly strong, with the westward zonal component being predominant, especially at lower latitudes, while also exhibiting a strong interplanetary magnetic field By dependence. The observations are consistent with the notion that the asymmetry in the E region velocity distribution is highly sensitive to the bias in the convection component caused by the zonal convection component asymmetry and that the bump‐on‐tail or inflection point features may also depend on the irregularity height and the presence of strong density gradients modifying the FBI threshold value.
Treatment of immune thrombocytopenia in adults in Kyrgyzstan: a two-center retrospective observational study

Introduction and Aim: Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an acquired thrombocytopenia characterized by a platelet count of 100x109/l and caused by immune-mediated destruction of platelets. This study aimed to assess the efficacy and tolerability of the first and subsequent lines of therapy for adult patients with ITP. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study included 172 patients with ITP and a mean age of 44.2±5.71 years at the time of diagnosis and/or who were treated for ITP at participating centers such as south and republican centers in Kyrgyzstan during the study period from 2015–2022. Analyzing patient medical records yielded detailed data on treatment strategies and results. Results: There was a significant difference in the mean number of platelets between clinical centers (26.2 versus 14.5×109 cells/l, p<0.05), and the mean number of platelets at admission to the hospital was 17.1±1.84×109 cells/l. 113 (65.7%) had primary ITP, and the remaining 59 (34.3%) had secondary ITP. 35.6% of patients with secondary causes were infected (including those with Helicobacter pylori but not others). Conclusion: Patients with adult ITP can be effectively treated with conservative methods in 45.4–77.6% of cases. These treatments include prednisone, dexamethasone, and their combination with intravenous immunoglobulin, rituximab, and azathioprine.
The Nexus between Climate Change and Nutrition Security and the Impact of this Relationship on Diet-Related Non-Communicable Diseases

Life-threatening climate change, and burgeoning nutrition insecurity compounded by a steady rise in chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are the defining issues of our time. This study is an exploration of the nexus between climate change and nutrition and the impact of this relationship on diet related NCDs. Quantitative methodologies, utilizing a descriptive cross-sectional study design was adopted. The study was carried out across Kenya, informed by the devastating climate changes and NCD cases the country has experienced recently. To recruit the study participants, a random sampling technique was adopted to select a sample size of 190. The study utilized an online questionnaire uploaded on KoboCollect and the link to the questionnaire was shared via WhatsApp, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and email. The quantitative data was downloaded and synchronized with Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS version 26.0) which was used to analyse the data. The study found that an increase in the price of basic food commodities, reduced amount of reliable agricultural output, destruction of crops, and change in the nutritional content and food composition are some of the major effects of climate change on nutrition security. Moreover, the study found that depletion of nutrition sources leads to diet-related NCDs (diabetes and hypertension) through increased consumption of unhealthy foods (calory and fat-dense diets), reduced access to recommended food for those living with diabetes and hypertension, and lack of food diversification. The study also found that increased demand for healthy foods has both positive and negative implications. Positive impacts reported include increased agricultural activities and innovations to address the growing demand for healthier. Negative impacts reported include strain on food production capacity and unsustainable agriculture practices that have long-term health effects. Policymakers are called upon to formulate policies that guarantee public health even amid the evolution of innovations that promise to address shortfalls in food availability, accessibility, reliability, and utilization
