Authors: Unal Onur , Kumbul Yusuf Cagdas , Akin Vural
Published: August 2024

Background & objectives

Acute tonsillitis is a disease that can often be cured with medical treatment. However, complications may occur during this disease process. One of these complications is peritonsillar abscess. In recent years, biomarkers have been frequently used in the diagnosis of diseases. The aim of the study was to reveal whether peritonsillar abscess develops after acute tonsillitis, and acute tonsillitis can be differentiated using biomarkers and which biomarker has higher predictive value for this differentiation.

Methods

The control group consisted of individuals who were operated for septoplasty in the otolaryngology clinic, and the acute tonsillitis group consisted of individuals diagnosed with acute tonsillitis in the same clinic. Both groups were statistically compared in terms of mean platelet volume (MPV), neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR), systemic immune inflammation index (SII), infection discrimination index (IDI), plateletcrit (PCT) and lymphocyte to monocyte ratio (LMR) biomarkers. Statistically, significant biomarker values were compared between the subgroups in the tonsillitis group of those who had only acute tonsillitis and those who had peritonsillar abscess due to acute tonsillitis. Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve analysis was performed on biomarkers for their ability to predict the presence of peritonsillar abscess.

Results

When the individuals who had only acute tonsillitis and those who had acute tonsillitis with peritonsillar abscess were compared in terms of biomarkers, there was a statistically significant difference between the mean MPV, SII and PCT (P=0.010, 0.021, 0.023, respectively). ROC analysis was performed to calculate the sensitivity and specificity of MPV, PCT and SII for the diagnosis of acute tonsillitis with peritonsillar abscess (sensitivity-specificity for MPV 51.9–72.7%, for SII 94.2–32.7%, for PCT 71.2–50.9%, respectively).

Interpretation & conclusions

MPV, SII and PCT biomarkers may be useful to help clinicians predict peritonsillar abscess due to acute tonsillitis.

Published: August 2024

Objectives:

Achieving a ‘good death’ is one of the important goals of palliative care. Providing goal-concordant care and an environment tailored to the patient’s preferences can contribute to a ‘good death’. However, the concordance rate between the preferred and actual places of death among advanced cancer patients in Japan is less explored. This study aimed to identify the concordance between patients’ preferred and actual places of death and the associated factors among patients with advanced cancer in Japan.

Materials and Methods:

Patients with advanced cancer who underwent chemotherapy at Tohoku University Hospital between January 2015 and January 2016 were enrolled and followed up for 5 years. The enrolled patients were asked about their preference for their place of death. The response options were: “Own home,” “General ward” and “Palliative care unit (PCU).” We compared the actual place of death with the patient’s preference through a follow-up review of the medical records.

Results:

A total of 157 patients with advanced cancer were enrolled between January 2015 and January 2016. Of these patients, 22.9% (11/48) died at home according to their preference, 64.0% (16/25) in the general ward and 37.9% (11/29) in the PCU. Only thirty-seven (37.3%) patients died where they wanted, based on the comparison between patients’ preferences and actual places of death.

Conclusion:

The concordance rate between the preferred and actual places of death is not high in Japan. Improving concordance between patients’ preferences and actual places of death has the potential to improve end-of-life care.
Palliative Care Aspects of Acute Intermittent Porphyria – A Case Report
Authors: Abraham Neethu Susan , Mishra Seema , Vig Saurabh
Published: August 2024

Acute intermitttent porphyria belongs to a rare group of diseases hallmarked by deficient biosynthesis of heme. It carries a significant symptom burden, both physical and emotional,and therefore palliative care has emerged as an essential tool in the armamentarium of porphyria management . It takes care of the patient as a whole and caters to all aspects that the disease process demands. There are many lacunae in the literature regarding the palliative management of porphyria. We are reporting a case of a 16-year-old female who presented with severe abdominal pain, lower backache and symmetrical bilateral lower limb pain to the palliative ward referred by the neurology department for supportive care. This case describes the palliative care aspects of porphyria management which was successfully provided in the palliative care unit right from referral till the last. A multidisciplinary palliative care team managed the patient, and the necessary interventions were provided to the patient and family. Palliative acre in AIP needs to be emphasized, and palliative care services need to be utilized in these cases. The unavailability of specific treatment measure, heme, in countries like India further emphasizes the need for long-term supportive care for the patient and family. The case shows the importance of palliative care throughout the disease course as it is a chronic disease with significant morbidity and carries a heavy symptom burden. This case provides the insight that rather than conventional management alone for such chronic diseases, palliative care should be incorportated. Early integration with palliative care helps in exploring all the domains of disease. This is one of the first cases reported highlighting palliative care in porphyria , bridging the gap in the literature.
Sustainable (–)-Ambrox Production: Chemistry Meets Biocatalysis
Authors: Eichhorn Eric , Schilling Boris , Bombrun Agnes , Schroeder Fridtjof
Published: August 2024

(–)-Ambrox, the most prominent olfactive component of ambergris, is one of the most widely used biodegradable fragrance ingredients. It is traditionally produced from the diterpene sclareol chemically modified and cyclized into (–)-ambrox. The availability of the new feedstock (E)-β-farnesene produced by fermentation opened new routes to (E,E)-homofarnesol as a precursor to (–)-ambrox. Combining the chemical transformation of (E)-β-farnesene to (E,E)-homofarnesol and its enzymatic cyclization with an engineered Squalene Hopene Cyclase provided a new sustainable route for the production of (–)-ambrox at industrial scale. Compared to the traditional synthesis from sclareol, the new and innovative route from (E)-β-farnesene improves atom and step economy, reduces waste production, solvent and energy consumption.
Adventures with the β2-adrenoceptor Receptor: A Career Long Interest in Agonising One of the Most Widely Studied GPCRs
Authors: Fairhurst Robin A.
Published: August 2024

Drug discovery is a multi-disciplinary effort in which groups with expertise in a range of areas combine in a unified way to achieve a common goal: to deliver a clinical candidate to evaluate a hypothesis for improving human health. As a medicinal chemist this environment has provided multiple opportunities to be involved in cross-discipline interactions that have been both rewarding and led to outcomes that would not have been possible without an intimate interdisciplinary curiosity. Within this article I aim to share some of my experiences with the β2-adrenoceptor that have fostered such synergistic relationships with several disciplines, but in particular with in vitro pharmacologists looking at different ways to stimulate this G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR). This interest now spans over a quarter of a century and has been intertwined with the delivery of three clinical candidates.
Dissociation dynamics of CO2 on Cu(110) studied over a wide range of incident energies
Authors: Singh Saurabh Kumar , Shirhatti Pranav Ravindra
Published: August 2024

In this work, we have studied the dissociation dynamics of CO2 on a Cu(110) surface using molecular beams with incidence energies ranging from 0.28 eV to 4.6 eV. The incident energy dependence of the initial dissociative reaction probabilities (S0) of CO2 showed two distinct characteristics. S0 exhibits a rapid increase from 1.18 × 10−4 at 0.28 eV to over 200-fold at 2 eV. Beyond this, only a small increase by a factor of 2 was observed in the 2 eV to 4.6 eV range, with S0 being only 4.1 × 10−2 at 4.6 eV. Incident angle-dependent measurements reveal total energy scaling to be followed. Measurements using a heated nozzle showed no observable enhancement in S0 due to the vibrational energy of the incident molecules, with an upper limit of vibrational efficacy estimated to be 0.25. Furthermore, an increase in O-atom saturation coverage (resulting from CO2 dissociation) from 0.5 ML to 0.66 ML was observed at high impact energies (> 3 eV), suggesting that newer dissociation sites become accessible at higher energies.
Accelerated mechanochemical bond scission and stabilization against heat and light in carbamoyloxime mechanophores
Authors: Aydonat Simay , Campagna Davide , Kumar Sourabh , Storch Sonja , Neudecker Tim , Göstl Robert
Published: August 2024

Current approaches to the discovery of mechanochemical reactions in polymers are limited by the interconnection of the zero-force and force-modified potential energy surfaces, since most mechanochemical reactions are force-biased thermal reactions. Here, carbamoyloximes are developed as a mechanophore class in which the mechanochemical reaction rates counterintuitively increase together with the thermal stability. All carbamoyloxime mechanophores undergo force-induced homolytic bond scission at the N–O bond and their mechanochemical scission rate increases with the degree of substitution on the α-substituent. Yet, carbamoylaldoximes react to both heat and light with a pericyclic syn elimination while carbamoylketoximes undergo thermal decomposition at high temperature and photochemical homolytic scission only from the triplet state. Thereby, the mechanochemical and thermal reaction trajectories are separated and the thermal stability increases alongside the mechanochemical reaction kinetics. This approach may play an important role in the future of systematic mechanochemical reaction discovery.

The recent focus on high entropy alloys in the field of electrocatalysis has led to a corresponding increase in interest in nanosizing these materials. Nevertheless, the precise mechanism by which they are formed at low temperatures remains unclear. In this study, we investigate the formation and subsequent growth of PtFeCoNiPd particles following a facile and industrial-scalable incipient wetness impregnation approach using quasi-simultaneous in situ powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS). The initial formation of crystallites with a size of 2-3 nm and an fcc structure, which are rich in Pt and Pd, was observed. A continuous incorporation of the non-precious elements at elevated temperatures leads to crystallite growth while maintaining an fcc structure. Upon reaching a temperature of 330 °C, Bragg peaks corresponding to a face-centered tetragonal phase emerge, indicating a transition to an intermetallic species. The degree of ordering was found to be dependent on the atomic ratio of precious to non-precious elements in the samples, with the synthesis temperature program also influencing this degree of ordering. This suggests the possibility of synthetic control.
Orthogonal Phase Transfer of Oppositely Charged FeII4L6 Cages
Authors: Matic Ebba S. , Bernard Maylis , Jernstedt Alexandra J. , Grommet Angela
Published: August 2024

Coordination cages and their encapsulated cargo can be manoeuvred between immiscible liquid layers in a process referred to as phase transfer. Among the stimuli reported to drive phase transfer, counterion exchange is the most widespread. This method exploits the principle that counterions contribute strongly to the solubility preferences of coordination cages, and involves exchanging hydrophilic and hydrophobic counterions. Nevertheless, phase transfer of anionic cages remains relatively unexplored, as does selective phase transfer of individual cages from mixtures. Here we compare the phase transfer behaviour of two FeII4L6 cages with the same size and geometry, but with opposite charges. As such, this study presents a rare example wherein an anionic cage undergoes phase transfer upon countercation exchange. We then combine these two cages, and demonstrate that their quantitative separation can be achieved by inducing selective phase transfer of either cage. These results represent unprecedented control over the movement of coordination cages between different physical compartments, and are anticipated to inform the development of next-generation supramolecular systems.

White Deer Plain is a full-length novel written by author Chen Zhongshi over six years, which won the fourth Mao Dun Literature Prize and has been altered into a variety of art forms, including movies, television dramas, and plays. The setting of the novel is the feud between three generations of the White Deer and Deer families on the White Deer Plain in Guanzhong, Shaanxi Province, beginning in the late Qing Dynasty. The novel is rich in content and depicts diverse and intertwined characters. The author realizes the life at that time, with original life and real details, showing a story on the White Deer Plain. The writing of the novel weakens the political utilitarianism and enhances the depiction of local folk culture in Guanzhong, Shaanxi, which improves the artistic value of the novel. This paper will explore the folk culture study related to White Deer Plains from the following three parts, namely, the concept of the life of family marriage and childbearing, the unique dialect culture, and the traditional spiritual beliefs. The related folk culture has been passed down from generation to generation, forming a set of its own patterned way of life with a certain degree of inheritance and stability. These centuries-old traditions make the research and discussion more relevant to the present.

Floating stone column-supported embankments on soft soils: numerical study incorporating stability analysis and basal reinforcement with geosynthetic
Authors: Borges José
Published: August 2024

Although fully penetrating stone columns have widely been studied in the literature, the number of published studies on floating stone columns – which also have been efficiently used to improve vertically lengthy soft-clay deposits – is very limited. Basal reinforcement with geosynthetic is another technique that increases overall stability of embankments on soft soils and can be combined with stone columns. In the paper, mechanical-hydraulic coupled finite element analyses are performed to study a floating stone column-supported embankment on a thick soft soil deposit. A parametric analysis is conducted so that the influence of two governing factors is evaluated: length of stone columns; basal reinforcement with geosynthetic. An overall stability analysis method, which uses the results of finite element analyses, is also applied. Results of several key variables are analysed: overall safety factor, settlements, horizontal displacements, vertical stress at the embankment base, stress concentration ratio, excess pore pressures and geosynthetic tensile force.

The Archipelago Capital (IKN) as the new capital is on the island of Kalimantan, replacing Jakarta. The IKN development carries the forest city concept which pays attention to environmentally friendly aspects. This writing aims to apply the International Environmental Organization Program in the model and form transmission mechanism and apply the Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 32 of 2009 in the model and form the transmission mechanism. The endogenous and exogenous variables required for simultaneous equations are by theory and empirical experience. The model built consists of 16 endogenous variables (G) and 29 predetermined variables. This means that in model (K) there are 45 variables. There are 14 exogenous and 16 endogenous variables, so (M) totals 30 variables. Thus, (K – M) = (G – 1). This means that the model is identified precisely and is suitable for analysis using the Two Stage Least Squares Method. Application of the International Environmental Organization Program, namely establishing the International Eco Green University to function in the field of research, development and preservation of flora, fauna and marine biota endemic to the island of Kalimantan. The application of the Environmental Law is realised starting from the process of providing residential or office infrastructure in the form of condominiums to the technology for processing liquid and solid waste materials into organic materials for agricultural fertiliser, biogas, animal feed and land fisheries. The transmission mechanism is from achieving added value in all business fields to the growth of IKN's Gross Regional Domestic Product.

The dissected gut from worker termites of Odontotermes wallonensis in
a specific medium was incubated, and the microbial colonies were purified
for morphological and biochemical studies. There were ten purified isolates,
and they were predominantly regular in shape rather than irregular. The
color of the isolates was dull yellow, cream, pink and white. Smooth texture
was dominant among the isolates. The isolates responded differently to
varied biochemical tests. Among the ten purified microbial isolates, all
were found to be gram-positive, anaerobic, and not producing hydrogen
cyanide except the ninth isolate, which showed positive results on the HCN
test. The utilization of nutritional source also differed with isolates. Gut
microflora of the termite (O. wallonensis) was also characterized using 16S
rRNA gene amplification, yielding DNA fragments of 1300-1500 bp. The
sequences aligned with major bacterial phyla i.e Actinobacteria, Firmicutes,
Planctomycetes, Bacteroidetes, and Proteobacteria.

Resumo: É notório que alguns avanços na rede de atenção primária e secundária já foram executados no diz que respeito à
prevenção e rastreamento do câncer de colo de útero, porém essa doença segue sendo um dos maiores indicadores das disparidades
globais, em que 90% das mortes pela doença acontecem em países em desenvolvimento. Além disso, já foi evidenciado que o
HPV aumenta a predisposição ao vírus do HIV e outras IST, logo compreender o impacto da vacina de HPV na prevenção das
doenças supracitadas é de importância substancial na determinação de políticas públicas de saúde. O objetivo é analisar quais são
os impactos à longo prazo da vacina do HPV na prevenção de câncer cervical. Esta revisão de literatura narrativa foi realizada
utilizando as bases de dados PubMed e Google Acadêmico. Para a busca foram utilizados os descritores de saúde: “HPV”,
“vaccine”, “vaccintion coverage”, “reduction in cervical câncer”. Evidenciou-se que a vacinação é altamente protetiva quando

aplicada corretamente e com cobertura completa, enquanto sua negligência em países de baixa renda reduz sua eficácia. Destacou-
se a importância da vacinação precoce para profilaxia, já que a prevenção pode reduzir significativamente os casos da doença.

Skin cancer remains a significant public health concern, with rising incidence rates worldwide. Our literature review examines current knowledge on skin cancer prevention, focusing on key areas such as epidemiology, risk factors, ultraviolet (UV) radiation exposure, pathophysiological and genetic mechanisms, and prevention strategies. A comprehensive literature search was conducted across databases including PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar, focusing on peer-reviewed articles published from 2013 to 2023. Non-peer-reviewed articles, non-English studies, non-human research, and studies published before 2013 were excluded. Our study highlights the significant role of UV radiation in skin cancer pathogenesis and underscores the importance of comprehensive prevention strategies. Sunscreen use and protective behaviors are effective but underutilized. Community-based interventions show promise in increasing public awareness and promoting protective measures. Screening and chemoprevention offer additional avenues for reducing skin cancer burden. The findings emphasize the need for continued public health efforts to enhance skin cancer prevention and early detection. Future research should focus on optimizing prevention strategies and exploring novel approaches to reduce the incidence of skin cancer.

Este artículo presenta los resultados de una investigación educativa cuyo propósito fue comprender la influencia de las prácticas educativas en el proceso autorregulatorio de los estudiantes en Colombia. El enfoque metodológico fue de tipo cualitativo con un alcance descriptivo que buscó detalles sobre el hacer docente y el aprendizaje de aula. La muestra se compone de 137 participantes distribuidos en 90 estudiantes, 24 docentes y 23 padres de familia a quienes se les aplicaron una ficha de caracterización, una entrevista y un grupo focal a lo largo de 9 zonas del país: Garzón (Huila), Fortul (Arauca), Bucaramanga (Santander), Bogotá, Tenjo, Guayabal de Siquima (Cundinamarca), Urabá, Medellín, Rionegro (Antioquia), Ibagué (Tolima), Granada (Meta), Santiago de Cali (Valle del Cauca) y Almaguer (Cauca). Para el análisis de la información se contó con una matriz de triangulación y su posterior ejercicio interpretativo. Los resultados muestran que la práctica docente fomenta en los estudiantes su autonomía y su autocontrol a la hora de aprender, mientras que se ve la necesidad de brindar formación sobre las pautas de monitoreo parental. En ese sentido, se reconoce que la educación en contexto a partir de los juegos, la creatividad y el trabajo en grupo incentivan las habilidades de autorregulación del aprendizaje como la metacognición, el monitoreo, la delegación de tareas, la planeación y proyección de las metas a alcanzar.
