Use of right ventricular pressure increase rate to evaluate cardiac contractility in horses
Authors: Nollet Heidi , Van Loon Gunther , Deprez Piet , Sustronck Bart , Muylle Etienne
Published: January 2024

Objective

To establish reference values for right ventricular maximal rate of increase in pressure (dP/dtmax) in horses and determine the usefulness of this variable to evaluate cardiac contractility.

Animals

15 crossbred horses, 3 to 20 years old.

Procedure

Cardiac catheterization was performed, using a high-fidelity catheter tip micromanometer, to determine right ventricular dP/dtmax. The following mathematic corrections were made: for preload, (dP/dtmax)/instantaneous total pressure, (dP/dtmax)/instantaneous developed pressure, and (dP/dtmax)/end diastolic pressure; for afterload, (dP/dtCPIP)/common peak isovolumic pressure. Wedge pressure was measured simultaneously, using a Swan-Ganz catheter. A negative inotropic drug, detomidine hydrochloride, was administered to 6 horses to examine the effect of the negative inotropic drug on right ventricular dP/dtmax and derived variables.

Results

The mean right ventricular dP/dtmax was 477 (± 84.1) mm Hg/s in 15 horses. A 40% decrease in dP/dtmax was found for 30 minutes after detomidine administration. Variables that correct for preload and afterload were influenced similarly. Detomidine administration also caused a 24% increase in mean wedge pressure, probably indicating reduced left-sided cardiac contractility.

Conclusions and Clinical Relevance

Right ventricular dP/dtmax may be a useful clinical variable for determining acute changes in cardiac contractility in horses. (Am J Vet Res 1999;60:1508–1512)
Influence of age and parity on the distribution of cells expressing major histocompatibility complex class II, CD4, or CD8 molecules in the endometrium of mares during estrus

Published: January 2024

Objective

To evaluate effect of age and parity on distribution and number of cells expressing major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II, CD4, or CD8 molecules in the endometrium of mares during estrus.

Animals

32 gynecologically healthy mares, categorized as young (3 to 8 years; n = 17) or old (9 to 16 years; 15) and nulliparous (n = 6), nulliparous embryo donors (16), or parous (10).

Procedures

Endometrial specimens collected from the uterine body and horns during estrus were stained by use of the avidin-biotin-peroxidase method, using monoclonal antibodies against equine MHC class II, CD4, and CD8 molecules. Labeled cells in the stratum compactum within 5 randomly selected fields at 400× magnification (total area = 0.31 mm2) were counted, and numbers were compared among groups and between locations.

Results

Age did not affect cell numbers within the 3 cell subsets examined. Numbers in each subset were higher in the uterine body than in the horns, although the difference was not significant for cells expressing MHC class II. Significantly more cells expressing MHC class II molecules were detected in the uterine body of nulliparous and parous mares than in embryo donors, whereas in the horns, these cells were significantly higher in number only in parous mares. Parity did not affect number of CD4+ or CD8+ cells.

Conclusions and Clinical Relevance

The increased likelihood for endometritis to develop in mares as they age cannot be explained by a decrease in number of cells expressing MHC class II, CD4, or CD8 molecules within the endometrium. However, greater number of cells within these 3 subsets detected in the uterine body, compared with the horns, during estrus suggests a local readiness to act against microorganisms or semen introduced during mating or insemination.

Authors: Peterson Macy L. , Mans Christoph , Doss Grayson A.
Published: January 2024

OBJECTIVE

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of SC methadone in four-toed hedgehogs.

ANIMALS

9 to 12 healthy adult four-toed hedgehogs (7 to 9 males and 3 females).

METHODS

Hedgehogs underwent 3 randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled, complete crossover studies. Hind limb withdrawal latencies in response to an acute thermal noxious stimulus were measured to evaluate the antinociceptive efficacy of methadone. Single doses of SC methadone were evaluated at 0.5 and 1 mg/kg for dose-dependent effects. Additionally, methadone (1.5 mg/kg) was administered at different concentrations to assess the effect of injection volume on antinociceptive efficacy. Finally, the safety of multiple doses of methadone (1.5 mg/kg, SC, q 2 h, for 3 doses) was also evaluated. In addition to monitoring behavior during latency measurements, animals were assessed for overt sedation. Food intake, body weight, and running wheel activity were assessed daily for 6 days following methadone administration to evaluate for adverse effects.

RESULTS

Methadone at 1 and 1.5 mg/kg provided antinociception lasting < 2 hours, and injection volume had no significant effect on efficacy. Methadone at 0.5 mg/kg did not induce antinociception. Methadone produced transient abnormal behaviors in all hedgehogs, with more animals affected at the 1.5-mg/kg dose. Behaviors included periods of standing motionless, vocalization, chewing motions, and paw raising. Single- or multiple-dose administration of methadone had no significant effect on total food intake, body weight, or running wheel activity.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

The results of this study provide additional information on providing analgesia to hedgehogs. Subcutaneous methadone (1 to 1.5 mg/kg) can be used for short-term antinociception in hedgehogs.

The study examines sedimentology, stratigraphy, and the impact of wildfires on aeolian and soil processes during the Late Glacial Termination in the Korzeniew site, central Poland. The site, within a parabolic dune's central and lee-slope area, presents stacked aeolian sand units intermixed with six charcoal-enriched palaeosols. Thirteen optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dates on quartz and six radiocarbon dates establish the chronological framework, dating deposition processes. Initial aeolian sand deposition occurred towards the Late Pleniglacial's end. Climate amelioration during the Bølling interstadial led to permafrost thaw and gleyic soil formation, later overlain by migrating parabolic dunes from the older Allerød interstadial. Wildfires, influenced by vegetation cover, deposited charcoals on the dune's lee slope. These charcoals underwent pedogenic reworking amid episodes of aeolian sand deposition during the Allerød interstadial and Younger Dryas, stabilizing in the earliest Holocene. Wildfires significantly impacted local vegetation development and aeolian activity. Despite the warmth of the Allerød interstadial, increased fires correlated with expanding pine forests and their heightened fire susceptibility. Short-term climate shifts likely destabilized vegetation, fostering fire occurrences during the Allerød interstadial.
Modelling of African Vulture Optimization Algorithm with Deep Learning-based Object Classification for Intelligent Manufacturing Systems

Published: January 2024

Intelligent manufacturing system incorporates a number of sensors including IoT devices, cameras, and scanners, for capturing real-time data about the manufacturing process. Based on their physical properties, colours, dimensions, or other relevant characteristics, these sensors can be used to track and identify waste objects. Waste object classification in intelligent manufacturing includes the usage of recent systems and technologies to detect and classify waste materials or objects produced during the manufacturing process. The objective is to enable effective waste management and recycling practices, optimizing resource utilization and reducing environmental impact. Manual waste classification is a laborious and expensive task, which results in the development of automatic waste classification models using artificial intelligence (AI) techniques. It remains a challenging process due to the significant variations in the solid waste because of varying shapes, colours, and sizes. Therefore, recent advances in deep learning (DL) methods can be employed to accomplish the solid waste classification process. The study introduces a chaotic African vulture optimization algorithm with a deep learning-based solid waste classification (CAVOA-DLSWC) system. The CAVOA-DLSWC technique aims to automatically detect waste objects and classify them into different categories using DL models. In the presented CAVOADLSWC approach, two major processes are involved such as object classification and detection. For the object detection method, the CAVOA-DLSWC technique uses a lightweight RetinaNet model with CAVOA based hyperparameter tuning process. The CAVOA is derived by integrating the chaotic concepts into the initial iteration values of the AVOA. Once the waste objects are identified, the classification process can be performed by the use of convolutional long short-term memory (CLSTM) network. The experimental values of the CAVOA-DLSWC approach can be tested employing the solid waste database including diverse kinds of waste objects. The comparative results show the remarkable performance of the CAVOA-DLSWC method over other techniques.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the numerous services offered by sixth-generation (6G) mobile communications. It is necessary to meet heterogeneous criteria for large connectivity and low latency to serve the various kinds of IoT applications. In order to concurrently provide enormous connectivity and meet the low-latency conditions in the uplink IoT network, we proposed filtered orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (FOFDM) based on a service group adopting the deep learning (DL) technique. The proposed FOFDM-DL platform focuses on two key areas: first, it works for the concurrence of different time-frequency granularity appropriate for distinct service-based grouping, and secondly, it facilitates low latency and massive connectivity to deliver dependable communications. The suggested FOFDM-DL architecture may accommodate the needs of massive machine-type communication referred as mMTC and ultra-reliable and low-latency communications known as uRLLC concurrently for the next-generation communication systems. However, the uRLLC and mMTC requirements can only be supported separately by the new radio (NR)-5G, beyond 5G (or 6G). In comparison to the traditional scheme, simulation results demonstrate that the suggested FOFDM-DL platform works surprisingly well in the next-generation IoT network.

Due to their excellent mobility on various robotics platforms, unmanned-aerial vehicles (UAVs) are becoming extremely popular. We trace the UAV poses while simultaneously creating an iterative and progressive map of the surrounding area using a cutting-edge VSLAM technique, termed as visual simultaneous localization and mapping. In this case, a single UAV initially creates a map of the area of interest using a monocular vision-based method. In order to determine the best pathways for several UAVs, the created map is treated as an input for the optimization method. UAVs need to execute missions effectively, and they need to access the best route quickly in a challenging environment. This necessitates solving the automatic path planning problem. In this paper, a new hybrid particle swarm optimization (HPSO) technique is suggested as a solution to this issue. The proposed algorithm enhances the optimization capability and prevents dropping into local convergence by combining the simulated annealing algorithm; each particle integrates the advantageous information of the optimization method in accordance with the dimensional learning approach, which reduces the occurrence of particles fluctuation during the transition process and improves the convergence speed. Additionally, we proposed dynamic fitness function (DFF) in order to assess the path planner’s planning approach while taking into account a variety of optimization parameters, including the calculation of flight risk, energy usage, and operation completion time. The efficiency of our proposed H-PSO-VSLAM system, as shown by the simulation results, is validated by the recommended planner’s high fitness value and safe arrival at the destination while avoiding all unanticipated dangerous events and restricted locations.

In Manhaj Dakwah Madani Village, PARMUSI upholds the Word of Rasulullah SAW بَلِّغُواعَنِّى وَلَوْ آيَة means " convey from me even if only one verse" (HR. Bukhari). ManhajDakwah Madani Village itself has four pillars of the da'wah method, namely the first pillar, increasing faith and piety; the second pillar of community economic development; the third pillar is social empowerment of citizens; and the fourth pillar is improving education, especially reading the Koran for the people. The four pillars of da'wah refer to the letter of Ali Imran verse 104, namely: وَلْتَكُنْ مِّنْكُمْ اُمَّةٌ يَّدْعُوْنَ اِلَى الْخَيْرِ وَيَأْمُرُوْنَبِالْمَعْرُوْفِ وَيَنْهَوْنَ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ ۗ وَاُولٰۤىِٕكَ هُمُ الْمُفْلِحُوْنَ means “And let there be a group of people among you who call for good, order (do) what is right, and prevent what is wrong.” And they are the lucky ones.” In carrying out the Manhaj Dakwah, Da'i PARMUSI has an important and strategic role in fostering and mobilizing villagers to achieve these goals and aspirations.
