Micção inapropriada em um gato doméstico: tratamento bem sucedido com fluoxetina

Inappropriate urination in feline medicine embraces the behavior of domestic cats to urinate for no specific reason in undesirable places for their guardians. Cats with behavioral problems are two to six times more likely to be abandoned and many animals are euthanized. The aim of this paper is to report a case of inappropriate urination in a domestic cat, from which a satisfactory response was observed in pharmacological treatment with fluoxetine hydrochlorid. A male domestic breed, male, sterilized at six months of age, four years old, was taken for clinical care. The tutor's complaint focused on the elimination of urine in undesirable places, such as dog’s bed, sofa. Through history and anamnesis, it was found that the feline at the time of the consultation had a strictly domiciled habit of living and that such behavior of Inappropriate urination had started after moving to a new apartment. The owner used to live in a larger home where cats had peridomiciliated habits. Clinical examination, laboratory tests (blood count and serum biochemistry), blood glucose, feline leukemia virus (FeLV) antigen and feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) antibody testing and feline abdominal ultrasound did not result in changes. Noteworthy. Thus, through the diagnosis of elimination related to primary environmental / social factors, environmental enrichment measures were adopted that did not result in a satisfactory response. Consequently, the pharmacological therapy was prescribed with fluoxetine hydrochloride at a dose of 0.5 mg / kg orally every 24 hours until further recommendations. The animal presented improvement during the first 10 days after the start of drug treatment and 12 months after it remained without signs of periuria. There was no side effect associated with the therapy adopted. The factors that trigger the inappropriate elimination disorder are not necessarily those that maintain them, therefore justifying the non-response only to the environmental management adopted. Such a report may contribute to a better understanding and adoption of treatment techniques for inadvertent urination disorder in cats, which may help to reduce the tutor's dissatisfaction with felines that exhibit such behavior and consequently reduce the number of animals abandoned and euthanized because of this disorder.
Generation and characterization of iPSCs from human embryonic dermal fibroblasts of a healthy donor from Siberian population

Technology of reprogramming of somatic cells to a pluripotent state allows generating induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and carrying out a broad range of studies. iPSCs can be obtained from patients suffering from inherited diseases to model the diseases and to study their pathological mechanisms at the molecular level after iPSC differentiation in relevant cell types. Another approach to model and study inherited diseases is using iPSCs from healthy donors and genome editing tools. The approach allows generating a panel of isogenic lines, which gives new opportunities in drug screening and toxicological testing. Moreover, iPSCs and their derivatives can be further used for substitutive cell therapy and transplantology. In this study, we generated iPSCs from human embryonic fibroblasts using episomal vectors. The lines obtained expressed pluripotency markers, had a stable karyotype – 46:XY, and did not contain episome integrations into genome. The cell lines gave rise to derivatives of three germ layers during spontaneous differentiation in vitro and in vivo.
A simplified Youla-Kučera parametrized adaptive feedforward compensator for active vibration and noise control with internal coupling

In [7] a Finite Impulse Response (FIR) Youla-Kucera (YK) parametrized adaptive feedforward compensator has been introduced for active vibration control with mechanical coupling. The same configuration can also be used for active noise control with acoustical coupling. The major advantage of this scheme is the possibility to guarantee the stability of the internal positive feedback loop independently of the evolution of the adaptive parameters of the YK filter which will be tuned in order to minimize the residual error. The stability of the global scheme will however depend on the satisfaction of a strictly positive real (SPR) condition. It is shown in this note that a particular choice for the central stabilizing filter used in YK parametrization will drastically simplify the implementation of the algorithm without affecting the performance. This will be illustrated experimentally by the results on an active noise control system with acoustic coupling.
Potential Transmission of Acanthamoeba spp. from Contact Lens Solution and Tap Water in Jakarta, Indonesia

BACKGROUND: Acanthamoeba spp. can cause corneal infection or keratitis that can be transmitted through contamination of contact lenses and water. AIM: The objective of this study was to determine the risk factors, transmission potential of Acanthamoeba spp. from the contact lenses cleaning solutions including the household water sources to the contact lens wearers. METHODS: The study was conducted between January 2019 and May 2019. An examination of Acanthamoeba was carried out by collecting contact lenses from 53 graduate students in a college in Jakarta. Their cleaning solutions of contact lenses and household water were also obtained. Each sample was separately examined for Acanthamoeba spp. in the Parasitology Laboratory of the Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Indonesia, on page – salt agar culture. RESULTS: The findings show 2 and 3 contact lens samples positive for Acanthamoeba spp. and other free-living ameba (FLA), respectively. In addition, from the cleaning solution and tap water samples revealed, there are 5 (9.4%) and 34 (64.1%) cultures positive for Acanthamoeba spp. and other FLA, respectively. CONCLUSION: A positive sample of Acanthamoeba spp. originating from the same source of the contact lens and tap water, indicating an association of Acanthamoeba spp. from contact lenses and tap water with the cleaning solutions of the contact lenses. Thus, there is might be a risk of transmission of Acanthamoeba sp. from household water to the cleaning solutions of contact lenses.
Change in the Muscle Tension of the Shoulder Girdle Muscles in Patients with Spinal Pain, Using the Tone Control® Technique

: The aim of the study was to verify the efficacy of the Tone-Control method in inducing a reduction in the tension of the muscles of the shoulder girdle, and therefore a normalisation of posture in the segment. The authors analysed the change in posture, which was related to the muscle tension of the pectoralis major muscle and the trapezius muscle, resulting from the administration of a programme of encoded exercises known as the Tone Control method. The study was conducted on 70 patients with postural back pain, aged between 25 and 81 years and with a mean age of 61.9 years, 11 male patients and 59 female patients, who attended group rehabilitation for a minimum of 10 and a maximum of 15 sessions. Acute phase patients, patients on anti-inflammatory pharmacological treatment and patients with hernias or bulging causing thecal sac impingement were excluded from the study. Measurements were taken of the angles of the joints in the scapulohumeral segment during the first and last sessions. The NRS (numeric rating scale) pain scale was administered at the start and end of the cycle of sessions. Conclusions: Patients in the study group experienced improvements in the angle measurements that were proportionally greater than those of the control group, together with a considerable reduction in perceived pain, with an overall improvement in posture and shoulder girdle function.

ASSESSMENT OF TIME IN THERAPEUTIC RANGE WITH WARFARIN THERAPY IN PHARMACIST VERSUS USUAL CARE GROUP: A RETROSPECTIVE COHORT STUDY

Objective: Anticoagulation management with warfarin is a familiar challenge seen in primary care settings. A greater time in the therapeutic range (TTR) has shown improved health benefits in patients treated with warfarin for atrial fibrillation. The aim of this study was to assess the level of anticoagulation control achieved with warfarin therapy measured by TTR. Methods: Patients attending anticoagulation service at a medical center were included in this retrospective cohort study. Patients with at least two international normalized ratio (INR) values not more than 4 weeks apart were included and placed in a usual care group or a pharmacist care group based on the care received. Anticoagulation control was measured by calculating TTR according to Roosendaal’s linear interpolation method. A TTR of >70% was considered high-quality and >60% was considered moderate coagulation control. The data were analyzed for descriptive statistics, associations, and for identifying predictors of TTR. A p value of <0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: Mean age of patients was 58±9 years; 57% were male; 48% were White Caucasian, and 43% had a CHADS2 score of ≥3. Patients in the pharmacist group had a high TTR (67.6% vs. 43.4%, p<0.0001) and an INR in a significantly lower sub-therapeutic range than the usual care group (5.6% vs. 14.8%; p<0.0001). Half of the patients in the pharmacist group were able to achieve a TTR threshold of 60% and greater compared to less than one-third among the usual care group. Age and pharmacist care were found to be great predictors of TTR after adjusting for gender, ethnicity, and CHADS2 score (p<0.001). Conclusion: Our findings confirmed that pharmacist led anticoagulation care positively improved patients’ TTR with warfarin.
Assessment of bat guano as source of nutrients for rice production

Bat guano collected from Kisarawe cave A, Kisarawe cave B and Sukumawera in Tanzania were studied in a laboratory incubation experiment for 112 days to assess the phosphorus (P) release patterns and establish the pick periods of P mineralization. The total P contents of bat guano from Kisarawe cave A (BGK-A), Kisarawe cave B (BGK-B) and Sukumawera (BGS) were 8.55, 7.03 and 3.45 % respectively. The bat guano from each deposit mixed with soil at varying rates of 0, 10, 20, 40 and 80 mg P 200 g soil. The incubation experiment was arranged as a 3x5 factorial experiment in randomized complete design (RCD) with three replications. Results showed a gradual increase of P availability from 28 days to 84 days of incubation; followed by a slow decrease up to the 112 day of incubation. P release (availability) from the studied guano was in the order of BGK-B < BGS < BGKA indicating higher potential of bat guano from Kisarawe cave A as an alternative P source for crop production. P-source and application rate had a significant interaction effect (P < 0.05) on P release at all incubation intervals when P was applied at 80 mg P kg soil. The soil pH showed a very strong negative correlation (r > 0.8) with P released in the soil throughout the incubation period. It was concluded that P release from the three bat guano deposits in soils is gradual and reaches the pick in almost three months after application. Thus, in order to make effective utilization of P released from bat guano, it should be applied at least two months before planting. This will ensure that P will be readily mineralized and available in soil to be taken up by plant.
Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumor (DSRCT) –Varied Presentation

Desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT) is a small round cell tumor usually presents as abdominal lump or omental metastasis [1]. DSRCT is aggressive malignant neoplasm of young male adults and distant metastases occurs at the time of diagnosis [2]. EWS-WT1 fusion protein and (11;22) (p13;q12) translocation, the N-terminal domain of EWS to the C-terminal DNA-binding domain of WT1 is the pathogenesis resulting in an aberrant transcription factor.
EMPIRICAL ANALYSES OF PRODUCTION BEHAVIOUR AMONG SMALL-SCALE SWEETPOTATO FARMERS IN EBONYI STATE NIGERIA

The study investigated some determinants of sweet potato production among small-scale farmers in Ebonyi state.Primary data were collected from 400 small-scale sweet potato farmers in Ebonyi State using a multi-stagesampling technique. The instruments used for data collection were interview schedule and focus groupdiscussion (FGD). Data collected through these methods were analysed using descriptive statistics, whileordinary least square regression was used to determine factors associated with sweet potato production. FGD wasanalysed by transcribing responses of the discussants. Findings revealed that, 46.07% of the respondents weremales while 53.93% were female farmers. The average age of the respondents was 43 years while 75% hadformal education. The average farm size was about 2.8ha. Many (64%) of the respondents had more than 10 morein the market because they were more receptive to new ideas and are less risk averse than their aged counterparts.However, there should be a threshold in terms of age beyond which the agility to participate in the market maydecline. Similarly, the coefficient of marital status (5%) also had an indirect relationship with marketparticipation. This implies that processors who are married tend to not participate in the market than theircounterparts who are not. This implies that more of the cassava products produced will be used in feeding thefamily, thus reducing the quantity taken to the market. The result agrees with that of Egbetokun et al., (2017) whoobtained similar result in his study in Osun State, Nigeria. Result of the regression analysis showed thatrespondent's age, gender, household size, educational level, Farming experience, and membership to farmersassociation were positive and significantly influenced sweet potato production. The results therefore call forpolicies aimed at provision of affordable education and encouraging experienced farmers to formgroups/associations to enhance access to innovations that will enhance production.
Mediating Entrepreneurial Creativity – The Effect of Human Resource Practices on Innovation

This research aims to evaluate the link between human resource practices (HRPs) and innovation with mediating effect of entrepreneurial creativity. This research uses the hierarchical analysis to examine data collected from entrepreneurs running 172 small and medium enterprises. The results show that (a) HRPs have a positive and significant effect on entrepreneurial creativity; (b) HRPs have statistically significant impact on innovation. These results provide empirical evidence that entrepreneurial creativity mediates the relationship between HRPs and innovation. Also, the findings provide evidence that the mediating role of entrepreneurial creativity improves employees’ innovation. By providing a cross-sectional examination of our model, we showed that HRPs and entrepreneurial creativity are of essence in shaping an innovative context. A comprehensive view on the triggers and outcomes of entrepreneurial creativity and innovation are needed, as the traditional unidirectional cause-effect rationale short in explaining how these concepts relate to one another and to entrepreneur experiences of HRPs.

Learning assessment in higher education: actual challenges and research perspectives

La valutazione degli apprendimenti è un tema che ha una lunga tradizione di contributi internazionali. Quasi cent’anni fa (1922) apparivano le prime ricerche di H. Piéron sulla predittività della valutazione alla fine della scuola primaria e la sua proposta di avviare un nuovo ambito di studio, la docimologia (Piéron, 1963), per approfondire le modalità di verifica degli esiti degli studenti. Il problema, affrontato inizialmente con un approccio critico alle prassi in uso, ha suscitato nel tempo un ampio interesse nei diversi paesi e ha polarizzato un gran numero di studiosi, assumendo una sempre maggior rilevanza internazionale e sviluppi in direzioni plurime.
Closed Head Trauma

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is an injury to the brain from external mechanical force. TBI can generally be classified as either closed or penetrating, with the latter distinguished by violation of the skull and dura mater. Of the two, closed head injury (CHI) is far more common. Types of CHI include concussion, contusion, diffuse axonal injury, and intracranial hematoma (epidural hematoma, subdural hematoma, subarachnoid hemorrhage, and intraparenchymal hemorrhage). This article will focus only on closed head injury, and the terms TBI and CHI will be used interchangeably. TBI is often classified as mild, moderate, or severe based on the Glasgow coma Scale (GCS). Mild TBI, often called “concussion,” is defined by a GCS of 14 to 15 and accounts for over 80% of TBI. Moderate TBI is defined by a GCS of 9 to 13 and accounts for about 10% of TBI. Severe TBI is defined by a GCS of 3 to 8.

Assessment of metal availability in dumpsite soil using neutron activation analysis

Department of Physics, Faculty of Physical Sciences, Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria Department of Applied Sciences, College of Science and Technology Kaduna Polytechnic, Kaduna *Corresponding Author’s Email: ahmedmohammed7984@gmail.com ABSTRACT Contamination from municipal waste can increase the natural levels of heavy metals in soil, creating a health hazard to public and the environment. Environmental samples from the residential dumpsite were analyzed to determine the content and concentrations of va elements in six soil plumes taken at different depths: 0, 25, 50, 100, 120 and 150 cm respectively from the top layer down the soil profiles. The instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) technique was employed in the study. The analysis result nine elements comprising of heavy metals, reference and radioactive elements. Further analysis indicates a fluctuation in concentration of the elements down the profile and predicted elements exhibits a strong positive correlation amongst in concentrations of some elements in the middle of the sample follows the order Mg Na Fe K Al. The results show that despite slow absorption reaction of the metal within the middle of the sample, these metals displayed a uniform distribution within the specific soil matrix.
