Authors: da Costa Andrea Pereira , Costa Thaliane França , de Araújo Barbosa Suellen , Costa Alcyjara Rêgo , Abreu-Silva Ana Lúcia , Evangelista Andrade Fábio Henrique , Oliveira Isabel Silva , de Maria Seabra Nogueira Rita
Published: December 2023

An 11-year-old male dog presenting exophthalmia and perforation of the cornea of the left eye was seen at the veterinary hospital of the State University of Maranhão. Upon physical examination, irregularly shaped granulomas of crumbly appearance were observed on the dog’s tongue. The dog was sent for ocular enucleation surgery. The following tests were requested: complete blood count, serum biochemistry, hemoparasite investigation, chest X-Ray, echocardiogram, electrocardiogram, cytology and nodule histopathology. The blood count revealed neutrophilia, signs of anemia, increased total plasma protein and thrombocytopenia. Serum biochemistry and the imaging examinations showed normal results. The cytological examination on the tongue nodules showed microfilariae and the histopathological examination showed chronic glossitis. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and genetic sequencing were performed on a blood sample, which made it possible to identify the species Acanthocheilonema reconditum. This is the first record worldwide of the occurrence of microfilariae of A. reconditum on tongue nodules. This finding serves to alert dermatologists and dentists regarding the need for a differential diagnosis for types of oral cavity lesions of unknown etiological origin.
Comparison of active self-ligating brackets and conventional pre-adjusted brackets
Authors: Hamilton Robert , Goonewardene Mithran S. , Murray Kevin
Published: December 2023

Background

Active self-ligating brackets may be more efficient than conventional pre-adjusted brackets.

Aims

To determine if self-ligating brackets are more efficient than conventional pre-adjusted brackets when used in a specialist practice setting.

Methods

Seven hundred and sixty two patients, consecutively treated with fixed appliances, were evaluated retrospectively. All patients were treated by one orthodontist in a private orthodontic practice. Three hundred and eighty three patients were treated using a conventional pre-adjusted bracket system and 379 patients were treated with active self-ligating brackets. The total treatment time, number of appointments, appointment intervals, number of bracket breakages and number of unscheduled emergency appointments were recorded. Pretreatment characteristics identified by the ICON were related to these variables.

Results

The average treatment duration was 15.7 months (Range: 4.1–40.5 months; SD: 5.6 months). Comparable amounts of time were spent in rectangular and round archwires by both appliances. Overall, there was no statistically significant difference between the durations of treatment with active self-ligating brackets and conventional pre-adjusted brackets.

The number of debonded brackets and other emergency visits was significantly higher in patients treated with active self-ligating brackets. The treatment characteristics associated with prolonged treatment were: extraction of teeth, a Class II molar relationship and the degree of maxillary crowding or spacing.

Conclusions

Active self-ligating brackets appear to offer no measurable advantages in orthodontic treatment time, number of treatment visits and time spent in initial alignment over conventional pre-adjusted orthodontic brackets.
Treatment of severe bimaxillary protrusion with miniscrew anchorage: treatment and complications
Authors: Mimura Hiroshi
Published: December 2023

Background

Problems involving excessive face height and severe bimaxillary protrusion are usually treated with orthognathic surgery. When this form of treatment is rejected, retraction and intrusion of the anterior teeth using skeletal anchorage afforded by miniscrews may be employed.

Aims

To describe the treatment of severe bimaxillary protrusion with the aid of miniscrews and to discuss the complications encountered during treatment.

Methods

Following extraction of the four first premolars, miniscrews were placed bilaterally in both jaws to permit maximum retraction of the anterior teeth, and intrusion of the posterior and upper anterior teeth.

Results

The upper incisors were retracted 12 mm and intruded 5 mm over 20 months. The mandible rotated forward and upward, the face height reduced and the facial aesthetics improved. During treatment an irregular ridge of bone developed labial to the upper incisors, bone was deposited in the incisive fossae and the apices of the upper incisors were resorbed. An alveoloplasty was carried out to recontour the labial bone and the incisive fossae.

Conclusions

Absolute anchorage provided by miniscrews may become an effective alternative to orthognathic surgery for treatment of severe bimaxillary protrusion. During extensive retraction, the teeth may contact structures not normally encountered during conventional orthodontic treatment.
Soft tissue changes associated with first premolar extractions in adult females
Authors: Kachiwala Viral A. , Kalha Anmol S. , Machado Genevive
Published: December 2023

Background

The potential for premolar extractions to produce changes in the soft tissue profile after orthodontic treatment is controversial.

Aim

To evaluate the soft tissue changes associated with four first premolar extractions in adult females of South Indian ethnicity.

Method

Pre- and post-treatment lateral cephalometric radiographs of 30 adult female patients of South Indian ethnicity with bimaxillary dentoalveolar protrusion, requiring premolar extractions as a part of their orthodontic treatment, were used.

The radiographs were traced and changes in three angular and 12 linear measurements measured relative to the perpendicular to the horizontal reference line, 7 degrees down from S-N through S. Correlation coefficients between the changes in the upper and lower incisors and the lip measurements were calculated.

Results

All linear and angular measurements, except for changes in upper and lower lip thickness, B’ point and the anterior point on the lower lip, showed statistically significant (p < 0.05) changes with treatment. A significant negative correlation was found between upper incisor change and nasolabial angle change and a significant positive correlation was found between upper incisor change and retraction of the most anterior point on the upper lip.

Conclusion

Extraction of the four first premolars followed by the retraction of incisors reduced the dental and soft tissue protrusion found in adult South Indian females with bimaxillary dentoalveolar protrusion.
Short-term chemical and physical changes in Invisalign appliances
Authors: Gracco Antonio , Mazzoli Alida , Favoni Orlando , Conti Carla , Ferraris Paolo , Tosi Giorgio , Guarneri Maria Paola
Published: December 2023

Objective

To investigate the short-term optical, chemical and morphological changes in Invisalign appliances.

Methods

One ‘as-received’ Invisalign aligner, one ‘as-received’ Invisalign aligner immersed in artificial saliva for 14 days and 10 Invisalign aligners worn by 10 randomly selected patients for 14 days were used. Fourier transform infra-red microspectroscopy was used to characterise any molecular changes on the surfaces of the appliances, spectrophotometry was used to evaluate any changes in colour and transparency, scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis were used to examine the surface morphology and elemental composition of deposits on the surfaces of the aligners and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was used to identify substances released from the aligners into the artificial saliva.

Results

Aligners worn for 14 days had microcracks, abraded and delaminated areas, localised calcified biofilm deposits and loss of transparency. Monomers and/or by-products were not released from the aligner suspended in artificial saliva for 14 days, which suggests that the material is chemically stable.

Conclusions

Further studies are required to evaluate how intra-oral conditions may influence the optical properties and chemical stability of the aligners.
Clinical investigation of periodontal ligament distraction osteogenesis for rapid orthodontic canine retraction
Authors: Kumar Priyanka Sethi , Saxena Ruchi , Patil Sameer , Keluskar Kanhoba Mahabaleshwar , Nagaraj K. , Kotrashetti Sharadindu M.
Published: December 2023

Aims

To investigate rapid canine distalisation by periodontal ligament distraction and to determine the effects of periodontal ligament distraction on the canine root and pulpal vitality.

Methods

The sample consisted of 16 upper canines in eight patients who required first premolar extractions. The upper first premolars were extracted and the interseptal bone distal to each canine was thinned and undermined surgically. Custom-built distractors were placed and activated immediately to distract the canines into the extraction spaces. Radiographs were taken before canine distraction and at regular intervals thereafter. The upper canine pulps were tested with an electronic pulp tester before and after the distraction and the canines were examined on the post-distraction radiographs for evidence of apical and lateral root resorption.

Results

The canines were retracted to proximal contact with the second premolars in 20.33 ± 1.87 days. The average amount of retraction was 5.25 mm and the canines tipped distally 15.33 degrees. Although the upper molars did not move mesially, they extruded almost 1 mm. Root resorption was minimal and there was no deterioration in pulp vitality.

Conclusion

Canines can be rapidly retracted by periodontal ligament distraction without complications. However, the efficacy of the method depends upon the surgical procedure, which is technique sensitive. Resistance offered by the interseptal bone distal to the apex of the canine was thought to be the reason for the canine tipping during distraction.

Authors: Uysal Tancan , Amasyali Mihri , Koyuturk Alp Erdin , Ozcan Suat , Sagdic Deniz
Published: December 2023

Background

A preliminary study using laser fluorescence suggested that amorphous phosphate-containing orthodontic composites may prevent demineralisation around bonded orthodontic brackets.

Objective

To compare the microhardness of the enamel around brackets bonded with an amorphous calcium phosphate-containing orthodontic composite (ACP-containing) with the microhardness of the enamel around brackets bonded with a conventional composite resin.

Methods

Forty extracted upper premolars were used. Orthodontic brackets were bonded to the teeth with either an ACP-containing composite resin (N = 20) or a conventional composite resin (N = 20). The latter were used as the control. The crowns of all teeth were painted with an acid resistant varnish, leaving a 2 mm ring of exposed enamel around the brackets. The teeth were then subjected to a daily cycle of demineralisation for 6 hours and remineralisation for 18 hours for 21 days. Each tooth was sectioned and the microhardness of the enamel determined 25, 50, 75, 100 and 150 μm from the surface.

Results

The enamel was significantly harder 25 μm (p = 0.000) and 50 μm (p = 0.001) from the enamel surface in the teeth with brackets bonded with the ACP-containing composite resin as compared with the control teeth.

Conclusion

ACP-containing orthodontic composite resins may reduce the enamel decalcification found in patients with poor oral hygiene.
A comparative assessment of the forces and moments generated at the maxillary incisors between conventional and self-ligating brackets using a reverse curve of Spee NiTi archwire
Authors: Sifakakis Iosif , Pandis Nikolaos , Makou Margarita , Eliades Theodore , Bourauel Christoph
Published: December 2023

Objectives

To compare the intrusive forces and labio-palatal moments generated at the maxillary incisors by a 0.017 x 0.025 inch reverse curve NiTi wire using self-ligating and conventional brackets.

Methods

Ten 0.017 x 0.025 inch reverse curve NiTi archwires were used with each of the following 0.022 inch bracket systems: Titanium Ortho (Ormco/Sybron, CA, USA), In-Ovation R (GAC International, NY, USA) and Damon System 3MX (Ormco/Sybron, CA, USA). The wires were inserted on bracketed maxillary Frasaco models, with segmented maxillary incisors. Simulated intrusion from 0.0-1.0 mm was performed on the Orthodontic Measurement and Simulation System, which recorded the intrusive forces and the labio-palatal moments at 0.05 mm increments. The data were analysed with the ANOVA and Scheffe tests.

Results

The intrusive forces were significantly different between all bracket types. The highest force was recorded with the conventional Titanium Orthos brackets (8.2 N), followed by the Damon 3MX brackets (6.3 N) and the In-Ovation R brackets (5.5 N). The moments were found to be significantly different between the conventional and the self-ligating brackets, but not between the two types of self-ligating brackets. The highest moments were recorded with the self-ligating brackets (16.6-16.9 N/mm), followed by the conventional brackets (10.8 N/mm).

Conclusions

The intrusive forces exerted on the maxillary incisors by a 0.017 x 0.025 inch reverse curve NiTi archwire during the final 1 mm of levelling are very high and beyond the necessary intrusive force level for these teeth. Lower intrusive forces, but higher labio-palatal moments, were recorded with the self-ligating brackets.
Skeletal and dental changes after rapid maxillary expansion: a computed tomography study
Authors: Ghoneima Ahmed , Abdel-Fattah Ezzat , Eraso Francisco , Fardo David , Kula Katherine , Hartsfield James
Published: December 2023

Objectives

To investigate the skeletal and dental changes induced by rapid maxillary expansion, using computed tomography (CT) scans and three-dimensional (3-D) reconstructed images.

Methods

Twenty patients (Mean age: 12.3 ± 1.9 years) who required rapid maxillary expansion as a part of their comprehensive orthodontic treatment underwent pretreatment (T1) and post-treatment (T2) CT scans. The T2 – T1 differences between selected skeletal and dental measurements on the coronal CT and 3-D volumetric images were compared using the Wilcoxon signed ranks test.

Results

At T2 the Maxillary alveolar width (4.5 ± 3.5 mm) was greater than the Maxillary base width (1.7 ± 0.9 mm). The greatest transverse dental change was in the Intermolar width (6.3 ± 2.1 mm and 2.7 ± 1.9 mm at the crown and the apex, respectively). On the 3-D volume, significant increases occurred in the Bicondylar width (1.2 ± 1.3 mm), Bimaxillo-mandibular width (2.1 ± 2.3 mm) and the Maxillary width (2.5 ± 1.6 mm). The greatest change in the dental measurements was in the Maxillary first molar width (6.4 ± 0.1 mm). The Maxillary central incisor angle decreased significantly (-7.9 ± 8.4 mm), indicating an increase in the distance between the apices of the central incisors.

Conclusion

Volumetric 3-D CT scanning provides a useful method for assessing skeletal and dental changes after rapid maxillary expansion. Although significant increases occurred in most skeletal and dental measures, it appears that dental tipping explains most of the expansion.
Implementing and evaluating a new Silent Rank Attack in RPL-Contiki based IoT networks
Authors: Rouissat Mehdi , Belkheir Mohammed , Belkhira Hichem S. A. , Mokaddem Allel , Ziani Djamila
Published: December 2023

IoT networks are witnessing a rapid growth in various domains of our daily life, offering more attractive features in terms of measurement accuracy, easy implementation and affordable deployment costs. This outstanding boom is not undoubtedly far away from different challenging issues that impede the network efficiency and quality. The security concern remains one among the prominent issues that affect both the edge and the core IoT network where risks increase in conjunction with the network expansion. RPL is the well-known routing protocol for the edge part of the IoT network, intended to meet the requirements of the constrained IoT devices. Despite its various advantages, RPL remains suffering from various security attacks targeting the topology, the traffic, and the nodes resources. Our work presents a new silent decreased rank attack against RPL-Contiki, as well as a lightweight countermeasure. The obtained results on a random studied topology show that almost half the existing nodes in the topology were attracted by the planted malicious node, through its falsified low rank. Moreover, an increase of 12.5% in the control overhead and an increase of 15% in the total consumed energy are recorded compared to the attack-free topology. On the other hand, the attack did not heavily affect the PDR, but the latency showed an increase of 45% compared to the attack free case. This damaging effect makes this modified rank attack a serious threat to IoT RPL based networks.

Authors: Çelik Türkan
Published: December 2023

The present study aims to examine prospective history teachers’ process of using digital games to design history lessons and delivering the designed lessons in virtual classrooms. The study employed a design-based research model and was conducted with 31 participants selected based on the criterion sampling method. Data were collected through design documents, interview forms, and video recordings and were analyzed using descriptive and content analysis techniques. During the process, participants were able to design history lessons with digital games and deliver the designed lessons in virtual classrooms. Analysis of participants’ views on the process led to the emergence of the following themes: “The Problems Emerging in the Process,” “The Pedagogical Effects of the Process,” “The Technological Effects of the Process,” “The Effects of the Process on Reflective Thinking,” “The Effects of the Process on Participants’ Thoughts about Virtual Learning Settings,” and “The Effects of the Process on Participants’ Thoughts about the Researcher.” The study results show that despite some problems with the use of technology, the process had a positive effect on the participants. In this regard, future studies may be recommended to focus on prospective teachers’ competencies in using technology effectively when teaching lessons in virtual learning environments.
Analysis of Current State of Alternative Propulsion in a Sector of Passenger Railway Transport
Authors: Pribula Daniel , Kendra Martin
Published: December 2023

Green railway transport (RT) is not always a completely green transport solution, as there are still many nonelectrified or partially electrified lines in operation with polluting engine traction. Although electric rail is the most environmentally friendly, electrification of lines is a time-consuming and costly project, especially on less busy lines where electrification would be inefficient and unprofitable. Even though electric railway is the most environmentally friendly solution, electrification of lines is a time-consuming and expensive project, especially on less frequented lines where electrification would be inefficient and unprofitable. Alternative propulsion (AP) in RT is not only a way to reduce the operational emissions of passenger trains, but also to save energy and fuel, save time due to vehicle changes, and reduce the overall carbon footprint from transporting goods and people.

The aim of this paper is to examine in detail the current state of development and availability within the AP railway industry, specifically for passenger transport needs, and to transparently present the results in a simple and clear way. In addition, the paper explores the possibility of applying the alternatively powered system to the conditions of the H0 model railway and research with this model.
Integrated Management Systems: The Case of a Penitentiary in the State of Paraíba
Authors: Da Silva Iranilton Trajano , Barbosa Maria de Fátima Nóbrega
Published: December 2023

Objective: The objective of this article is to evaluate how the Procurador Romero Nóbrega Penitentiary, in Patos - PB, has internalized in its administration practices an integrated perspective of its ISO 14001 environmental management, ISO 9001 quality and OHSAS 18001 occupational health and safety systems.
 
Theoretical reference: An Integrated Management System (IMS) acts in the interconnection of other systems, aiming to achieve planned management of the execution of services in order to satisfy the internal and external needs of organizations, bringing together information and experiences from different areas in a single environment of work. This integration comprises a tool capable of discovering specific paths to be followed to achieve the desired objectives, in addition to creating an organizational culture of permanent or continuous improvement in its activities.
 
Method: As a methodology, a qualitative, exploratory and descriptive approach was used to understand how prison management occurs in terms of the incorporation of management systems.
 
Results and conclusion: The study showed that the penitentiary does not comply with the penal executive norm and, with regard to the management system models studied, the unit internally needs investment in its structure, in its human capital and, in the external context, more public policies to achieve sustainable management.
 
Implications of the research: The research is of great relevance to the prison system and the academic world, showing the possibility of making penal units sustainable, aggregating management systems and enhancing the achievement of prison sustainability.
 
Originality/value: Scientific production in Brazil on the implementation of sustainable prisons is incipient, therefore, the research seeks to contribute to helping gaps in the thematic literature, as well as drawing the State's attention to alternatives for the prison system by integrating systems with sustainability goals, respecting environmental, social, economic and human values.
Use of Pedotransfer Equations (PTF) to Estimate soil Density in the Hydrographic Basins of The Amambai, Iguatemi and Ivinhema Rivers in the State of Mato Grosso do Sul
Authors: Pimentel Letícia Guimarães , Teixeira Wenceslau Geraldes , Hernani Luís Carlos , Bhering Silvio Barge , Valle Lillyane Gomes de França
Published: December 2023

Theoretical framework: Bulk density (Bd) is a physical property of soil used as an indicator of soil compaction, influencing root growth and density, water movement and retention in the soil, it is an essential characteristic for assessments of carbon stocks or other nutrients in the soil.
 
Objective: This studyevaluates the accuracy and selects pedotransfer functions (PTFs) for Bd estimates for soils in the Amambai, Iguatemi, and Ivinhema River basins in Mato Grosso do Sul - MS.
 
Method: Estimates of Bd values of the samples were made using eleven PTFs-Bd that were calibrated to estimate Bd for Brazilian soils. The accuracy of PTFs-Bd predictions is evaluated based on the lowers root mean square error (RMSE) and the highers coefficient of determination (R²).
 
Results and conclusion: Among the eleven analyzed PTFs-Bd, the most accurate ones were PTFs- Ds 1, 2, 3, and 4 by Huf dos Reis et al. (2024) and the one by Tomasella and Hodnett (1998). PTF-Bd 3, which uses fine and coarse sand and clay as predictors, showed the highest accuracy for the total dataset (88 samples). PTF-Bd 5 obtained better accuracy in estimating Bd in Latossolos Vermelhos, Argissolos Vermelho Amerelos, and Neossolos Quartzarênicos.
 
Research implications: Identifying the best PTFs for estimating Bd for the study area's soils will facilitate other research as carbon stocks estimation and use of hydrophysical PTFs that use Bd as predictor.
 
Originality/Value: PTFs for estimating Bd for soils in the state of MS have not yet been developed, highlighting the need to evaluate and indicate between existing PTFs the more accurate.
"Story Time!": Coping with Low-Motivated Students using Big Book
Authors: Ignatius Javier C. Tuerah
Published: December 2023

Background:

Reading the picture book provides students with numerous positive effects, especially young students, such as attracting students' interest, boosting creativity, providing a pleasant, relaxed vibe, and creating fun and meaningful learning. This research seeks to investigate whether the reading comprehension of low-motivated students who are taught with the big book or with the daily storybook varies significantly.

Methodology:

This study used quasi-experiments, and each group received treatment eight times. The participants were 44 students recruited to become the sample of this study, consisting of experiment and control groups.

Findings:

This study revealed that students with low motivation who taught with Big Book as a platform are better than students with low motivation taught on traditional media. Several factors have made a big book an instrument that has a more significant impact on students' perception of reading than conventional media. Secondly, students engaged more in-class reading than in conventional media. Thirdly, the book sparked the interest of students and inspired them to learn more. Fourthly, the Big Book helped students create the meaning of the text and appreciate the text more thoroughly.

Conclusion:

English oral books such as Big-Book are more effective than traditional content in the second year. This study and published data support this conclusion that using large books as a tool for second years' reading understanding affects students' understanding of lectures significantly. The statistical study has found that the total student readership in the test group is higher than the average student score in the control group.

Keywords: reading comprehension; low motivation; pupils; picture book.

Authors: Delgado Reyes Andrés Camilo , Gonzales Carreño Valentina , Carreño Bustante María Teresa
Published: December 2023

El conflicto armado en Colombia ha dejado secuelas en la salud mental que han sido documentadas por diferentes investigaciones; ante esta problemática, el Estado colombiano ha expedido diferentes normativas que buscan la atención integral en salud para la población víctima del conflicto armado. El objetivo de este artículo de reflexión es confrontar las acciones jurídicas del gobierno para la atención integral de las víctimas del conflicto de armado y las estrategias implementadas para dar cobertura a la población, evidenciando las vacíos entre lo proclamado en las normás jurídicas y el acceso de servicios en salud mental. Se parte de conocer las políticas públicas para después comentar su implementación según los datos y reportes oficiales del gobierno y de investigaciones particulares llevadas a cabo por universidades y centros de estudio. El Programa de Atención Psicosocial y de Salud Integral a Víctimas (papsivi) promete buenos resultados; sin embargo, su implementación ha sido muy cuestionada en cuanto a la cobertura y la calidad, por lo que la reglamentación colombiana está bien escrita, pero pobremente ejecutada. La comunidad académica está llamada a impactar las políticas públicas.

Objetivo: Identificar, através da revisão integrativa, os instrumentos para avaliação de sintomas depressivos em idosos trabalhadores. Métodos: Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa a partir das bases de dados Biblioteca Virtual de Saúde, PubMed e Google Acadêmico, no período de 2012 a 2022. Foi utilizado como questão norteadora "Quais instrumentos utilizados para rastreio de sintomas depressivos no idoso trabalhador?" Resultados: Após análises dos artigos identificou-se que a escala mais utilizada, em todo o mundo, foi a Escala de Depressão Geriátrica, seguido da Escala Epidemiológica de Depressão. Porém, existe uma diversificação do perfil de aplicação das escalas de depressão geriátrica voltada para o idoso trabalhador sendo mais enfatizado o trabalhador cuidador de idosos, portanto, nesse caso trata-se de uma avaliação indireta de sintomas depressivos em idosos. Além de que foram poucos estudos direcionados ao idoso trabalhador. Considerações Finais: Identificou que apesar da ampla gama e disponibilidade de ferramentas com essa finalidade na psicologia geriátrica, apenas dois estudos as utilizaram, o que reduz significativamente a capacidade de comparar os resultados com aqueles estudos que empregaram ferramentas mais especializadas. Também observou que no estudo de maneira geral o idoso trabalhador não prioriza seu autocuidado quando o assunto é sua própria saúde.

Haematological and Clinical Characterization of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia
Authors: Shivani U. , Shetty Reshma A. , Shetty Vijith V. , Krishna Rajesh , Shetty Prashanth D.
Published: December 2023

A myeloproliferative disorder known as chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is caused by the clonal proliferation of haematopoietic progenitor stem cell leading to a marked raise in the granulocyte series of cells in the peripheral blood and bone marrow. The present study focused on evaluating clinical and haematological parameters. It is an observational study conducted over a period of 3 years which constitutes 50 diagnosed CML patients. Clinical and haematological details were collected. Prognostic Sokal and European treatment and Outcomes Study (EUTOS) scoring were applied to stratify different risk groups of patients. Study population showed male preponderance. The most common presenting symptom was splenomegaly (98%) followed by anaemia (94%). The patients were divided into Chronic Phase (CP), Accelerated Phase (AP) and Blast phase (BP) in males and females. In males, there was a significant reduction in haemoglobin levels as the disease progressed whereas in females, there was a reduction in haemoglobin levels. Haemoglobin count reflected the anaemic picture and was lowest in the blast phase. The blood cell indices and differential counts were within their normal range in both male and female patients. There was variation in the levels of lymphocytes among males and females but lower than the normal range. Basophil levels were significant between the different phases in females whereas platelet count was significant in males. The current study expected that there would be significant variations between male and female CML patients in a number of haematological measures which can be used as a good prognostic indicator.
Variovorax soli mediated growth amelioration and abiotic stress alleviation in Capsicum annuum
Authors: Maxton Ann , Masih Sam A.
Published: December 2023

In present study, rhizobacterial strains were isolated from soil sample and screened for plant growth promoting and antagonistic potential in vitro condition. The isolate exhibiting maximum plant growth promoting and antagonistic potential was subjected to biochemical characterization and 16S rDNA gene sequencing. Based on molecular characterization, the isolate was identified as Variovorax soli with NCBI accession number LC372534. The PGP potential of Variovorax soli was established as it augmented plant growth in control and under salt, drought, heavy metal stress conditions. Positive results for in-vitro tests viz. amylase, hydrogen cyanide, lipase, catalase, protease and chitinase production confirmed the antagonistic efficacy of Variovorax soli. Nutrient acquisition enhancing efficiency of V. soli was established as positive results were recorded for PGP tests viz. siderophore production, nitrogen fixation, phosphate solubilization and exopolysaccharide production. Plants inoculated with V. soli induced phytohormonal modulation (viz. increase in IAA level and reduction in stress ethylene level) for enhanced shoot, root length, increased plant fresh and dry weight, chlorophyll and proline content for extensive root system, plant growth and alleviation of salt, drought, arsenic stress impact as compared to uninoculated plants, thus confirming its ability as biological fertilizers. Along with (IAA) indole 3-acetic acid and (ACC deaminase) 1-aminocyclopropane 1-carboxylic acid deaminase, certain other extracellular exudates of PGPR serve as signaling molecules to trigger abiotic stress responsive pathway. V. soli is therefore a promising green alternative to chemical fertilizers to induce abiotic stress tolerance and reclaim soil fertility to elevate agricultural productivity.

The acute toxicity data of this plant extract also revealed the safety of this plant. In this review, it can be concluded that this plant has immense potential to be used in the area of drug design from natural lead molecules.
A Superstructure-Based Lignin Valorization Process Optimization Model for Lignocellulosic Biorefineries through Biological Upgrading
Authors: Wu Yajie , Restrepo-Flórez Juan Manuel , Vasco-Correa Juliana
Published: December 2023

This study presents an optimization framework to identify economically viable pathways for lignin valorization in biorefineries that employ biological upgrading. The economic potential for converting lignin from softwood, hardwood, and herbaceous plants into valuable bioproducts is evaluated. The research indicates that the production of 2-pyrone-4,6-dicarboxylic acid (PDC) from softwood is the most economically promising, with an estimated net present value (NPV) of $1,259 million and an internal rate of return (IRR) of 25.63%. Capital costs represent a significant portion of the total expenses across all scenarios. Revenue from woody feedstocks is largely derived from lignin-based products, while for herbaceous plants, co-products such as sugars are the main revenue contributors. The financial viability is influenced by factors such as the price and yield of the final products, the cost of feedstocks, and the capital expenses. The analysis provides strategic insights for the development of lignin valorization biorefineries and guides the chemical industry toward a more sustainable use of renewable carbon sources.
Extending the scope of the C-functionalization of cyclam via Copper(I)-catalyzed Alkyne-Azide Cycloaddition to bifunctional chelators of interest

Published: December 2023

Cyclam, known for its potent chelation properties, is explored for diverse applications through selective N-functionalization, offering versatile ligands for catalysis, medical research, and materials science. The challenges arising from N-alkylation, that could decrease the coordination properties, are addressed by introducing a robust C-functionalization method. The facile two-step synthesis proposed here involves the click chemistry-based C functionalization of a hydroxyethyl cyclam derivative using Cu(I)-catalyzed Alkyne-Azide Cycloaddition (CuAAC). Boc-protecting groups prevent undesired copper coordination, resulting in compounds with a wide range of functionalities. The optimized synthesis conditions enable C functional cyclams to be obtained easily and advantageously, with high application potential in the previously cited fields. The methodology has been extended to Trehalose-based Siamese twin amphiphiles, enabling efficient gene delivery applications.

Published: December 2023

This study, focusing on predicting Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion, and Toxicology (ADMET) properties, addresses the key challenges of ML models trained using ligand-based representations. We propose a structured approach to data feature selection, taking a step beyond the conventional practice of combining different representations without systematic reasoning. Additionally, we enhance model evaluation methods by integrating cross-validation with statistical hypothesis testing, adding a layer of reliability to the model assessments. This approach aims to bolster the reliability of ADMET predictions, providing more dependable and informative model evaluations.
La violencia del conflicto armado en Colombia:
Authors: Acuña Andrade Laura Camila , Ghiso Jiménez Sebastián
Published: December 2023

En Colombia, el conflicto armado tiene una historia de aproximadamente 65 años, durante los cuales los pueblos indígenas han tenido que resistir múltiples atropellos a sus derechos. Hasta la actualidad, ellos se han visto enfrentados al desplazamiento forzado y a ataques a sus poblaciones. Una y otra vez han visto interrumpidas su vida y su armonía por tener que enfrentarse al conflicto armado y a sus ideas de conquista del territorio. Para comprender la perspectiva colonial de este tipo de conflicto, es importante enfocarse en la comprensión de la política, desde el poder, como un proceso que se da en escala micro dentro de las comunidades indígenas y que se relaciona con las problemáticas de desplazamiento, territorio, género y salud mental. El conflicto armado, además de conllevar heridas físicas, repercute en la salud mental; de ahí que en las comunidades indígenas haya desencadenado una alta tasa de suicidios y el desarrollo de múltiples trastornos mentales. En el presente artículo se propone un modelo de atención integral en salud mental para los pueblos indígenas.
