Published: August 2023

Older people are vulnerable to infectious and degenerative diseases due to decreased organ function and lowered immune systems. This study aimed to analyze the quality and level of liking of the spice cookie formula and the fiber and antioxidant content of the selected cookie formula. The research method used a factorial complete randomized design with the treatment of wheat flour substitution using arrowroot flour and canna flour. There were three levels of substitution ratio, namely 50:50, 25:75, and 0:100, resulting in six formulas. The variables measured were sensory quality and level of liking using an organoleptic test by 30 semi-trained panelists. Organoleptic test data were statistically analyzed using the Kruskal Wallis test and Mann-Whitney further test. The two best formulas were selected using the exponential comparison method and then analyzed for dietary fiber content and antioxidant activity. The results showed that among the six formulas, there were significant differences in texture and aftertaste of the sensory quality and level of liking (p-value<0,05). The selected formulas were 50:50 substitution ratios of either arrowroot flour or canna flour. Cookies with canna flour substitution had a dietary fiber content of 9,6%, while cookies with arrowroot flour substitution were 7.8%. The antioxidant activity of cookies with canna flour substitution amounted to 9,5 mg/100g, while cookies with arrowroot flour substitution amounted to 12,0 mg/100g. In conclusion, spice cookies with a 50:50 ratio of canna flour and wheat flour substitution have the highest fiber content with strong antioxidant activity.

Authors: - Bavika K P , - Praveen K S , - Archana D Nazre
Published: August 2023

Hypertension (HTN), commonly known as the 'Silent Killer,' presents a significant worldwide health concern, with a prevalence of 24% in men and 21% among women in India. As lifestyle and food culture evolve, the prevalence of Non-Communicable Diseases (NCD) is increasing, thereby impacting overall health. The primary objective of this study is to conduct a comprehensive review of existing literature with a view towards exploring the recent advancements in diet and nutritional approaches for individuals with HTN.
This study aims to understand the importance of different diets such as the DASH diet, Mediterranean diet, potassium-rich diet, low salt diet and vegetarian diet which have been recommended globally owing to their varying ability to lower Blood Pressure (BP). Additionally, it emphasises the significance of protein in reducing BP, especially in India, where protein deficiency is highly prevalent. The study also investigates the role of simple and easily accessible functional foods that exhibit antihypertensive effects, with supporting evidence for their efficacy.
The study's findings indicate that adopting a consistent diet regime, such as a balanced diet with sufficient high-quality protein (at least 0.83g/kg/day), along with generous portions of fruits, vegetables and reduced salt intake, has proven to be highly effective in managing BP. Complementing non-pharmacological interventions with lifestyle modifications, such as healthy eating, regular physical activity, weight management, abstaining from smoking, limiting alcohol consumption and implementing stress management techniques, can collectively contribute to preventing and controlling HTN, thus reducing the disease burden. An effective change in the daily diet consistent with current protein recommendations is helpful in BP control.

Authors: - Kaniz Fatema , - Mohammad Moniruzzaman , - A. K. M. Golam Rabbani Mondal , - Md. Amzad Hossain
Published: August 2023

The textile and clothing industry plays a significant role in the economy of Bangladesh. It acts as a key player in the progress of the country. At present, the export performance of the readymade garment sector is more than 80% of total exports and hence makes up about 12% of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in Bangladesh. Thus, the country’s development largely depends on this sector which is considered the backbone of Bangladesh. As the quota system under the Multi-Fiber Agreement (MFA) phase greatly impacted the development process of the readymade garment sector in Bangladesh, many researchers disputed that after the abolition of the quota system, the growth of this sector might be hampered. Therefore, this study aims to find out the impact of quota withdrawal on the readymade garment (RMG) sector and, thereby, the roles of this sector to the economy of Bangladesh. For this purpose, the research has covered a period of twenty years as sample size, where ten years has been considered as the pre-MFA period and ten years as the post-MFA period. Being a quantitative study, comparative statements and descriptive statistics techniques have been used to determine the impact of quota withdrawal on the export performance of Bangladesh's textile and clothing sector. The evidence shows a smooth upward trend of textile and clothing exports towards the ten major countries in the world following the post-MFA period, and Bangladesh is registered as a significant export growth country following the withdrawal of MFA. Consequently, the arguments about the RMG sector concerning the textile and clothing industry that Bangladesh might not be able to compete in the global market during post-MFA periods proved wrong; thereby, this sector’s contribution to the economy is increasing progressively.

fundação do ser sexual
Authors: Engel Becher Gabriel
Published: August 2023

O fenômeno da sexualidade, cujo estudo é historicamente consagrado por teorias explicativas dualistas, pertence ao domínio do ser em geral. Daí, a necessidade da fundação a priori da experiência sexual enquanto possibilidade inerente à condição humana. Primeiramente, revisitamos as ciências dos séculos XIX (a obra de Krafft-Ebing e os modelos neurobiológicos da resposta sexual) e XX (a psicanálise de Freud), e, na outra ponta do espectro epistemológico do tema sexual, a literatura de Kenzaburo Oe. Então, nomeamos o capítulo V da Fenomenologia da Percepção, de Merleau-Ponty, como escrito de fundação do ser sexual. Em método fenomenológico, concebe a sexualidade como forma intencional original, ancorada pré-reflexivamente na consciência e condicionada pela intersubjetividade corporal. A concepção do ser sexual, afinal, aponta para a ligação (de significação) entre existência e sexualidade. Por fim, como evidência e via de acesso ao ser sexual, apresentamos dois quadros de aplicação da fenomenologia da sexualidade na psicopatologia.

Pathophysiology and Management of Primary Osteoporosis: A Narrative Literature Review
Authors: Andrean Dendi , Najirman  , Eka Kurniawan
Published: August 2023

The pathophysiology of primary osteoporosis primarily involves changes at the cellular and bone tissue levels. This process involves an imbalance between the activity of bone-destroying cells (osteoclasts) and bone-constructing cells (osteoblasts). Osteoclasts are responsible for the resorption of old and damaged bone tissue, while osteoblasts build new bone. In osteoporosis, osteoclast activity increases and osteoblasts decrease, resulting in loss of bone mass. Treatment of primary osteoporosis involves a holistic approach that includes lifestyle changes, use of medications, and fracture prevention. The main goal of management is to slow down the decline in bone density, prevent bone fractures, and improve the quality of life of sufferers. Increasing your intake of calcium and vitamin D, as well as regular physical exercise, can help maintain bone mass. Meanwhile, drugs such as bisphosphonates and teriparatide can be used to inhibit bone breakdown or stimulate new bone formation.

Aim: In this study, Polyphenol and chemical profiles in core, pulp, and peel of 7 apple varieties [Fuji (FS), Qinguan (QG), Qingping (QP), Jinshuai (JS), Gala (GL), Changmiou (CMO), and Huahong (HH)] were comparatively studied to distinguish the different metabolism biomarkers in the three parts of apple fruit.
Methods: This study investigated the distribution of 15 polyphenolic compounds using a combination of multivariate analysis and ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS).
Results: chlorogenic acid, catechin, epicatechin, phloretin were the most abundant components. While phloretin was the dominant component in core, chlorogenic acid was the main phenolic compound in pulp, and quercetin was mainly found in apple peel. The multivariate analysis showed that the chemical profile of peel was significantly distinct from that of apple pulp and core, whereas apple pulp and core overlapped with each other. The difference attributed to the compounds that were predicted from ultra-high performance liquid chromatography combined with quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS), which were remarkably different (P < 0.05) and belong to polyphenol.
Conclusions: It indicates that the potential superior biomarker of polyphenols is to differentiate the products from apple core, pulp, and peel respectively. This research provided an insight on the polyphenolic profile of core, pulp, and peel of apple fruits.
Artificial intelligence ethics in precision oncology: balancing advancements in technology with patient privacy and autonomy
Authors: Farasati Far Bahareh
Published: August 2023

Precision oncology is a rapidly evolving field that uses advanced technologies to deliver personalized cancer care based on a patient’s unique genetic and clinical profile. The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in precision oncology has shown great potential to improve diagnosis, treatment planning, and treatment outcomes. However, the integration of AI in precision oncology also raises important ethical considerations related to patient privacy, autonomy, and protection from bias. In this opinion paper, an overview is provided of previous studies that have explored the use of AI in precision oncology and the ethical considerations associated with this technology. The conclusions of these studies are compared, and the importance of approaching the use of AI in precision oncology with caution is emphasized. It is stressed that patient privacy, autonomy, and protection from bias should be made central to the development and use of AI in precision oncology. Clear guidelines and regulations must be established to ensure that AI is used ethically and for the benefit of patients. The use of AI in precision oncology has the potential to revolutionize cancer care, but it should be ensured that it striked a balance between advancements in technology and ethical considerations. In conclusion, the use of AI in precision oncology is a promising development that has the potential to improve cancer outcomes. However, ethical considerations related to patient privacy, autonomy, and protection from bias must be central to the development and use of AI in precision oncology.
Clinical and mutational profile of AT-rich interaction domain 1A-mutated cancers

Aim: AT-rich interaction domain 1A (ARID1A) encodes a key component of the SWItch/Sucrose Non-Fermentable (SWI/SNF) chromatin remodeling complex that participates in gene expression. ARID1A alterations are quite common among cancer patients, although their role remains debated. The aim of this article was to study ARID1A-mutated cancer patients.
Methods: Molecular and clinical data of cancer patients evaluated at Phase 1 Unit of Fondazione Policlinico Universitario A. Gemelli IRCCS were collected. Molecular analyses were performed using FoundationOne® CDx (Foundation Medicine Inc., Cambridge, MA, United States). Cancer patients with at least one molecular alteration in ARID1A gene were identified as ARID1A+.
Results: Among the 270 patients undergoing molecular analysis, we found 25 (9%) with at least one pathogenic alteration in ARID1A. The vast majority of these patients were female (84%). The median age at diagnosis was 59; most of the cancers (15, 60%) were gynecological (especially endometrioid endometrial cancers and clear cell ovarian cancers), diagnosed at an early stage. Frameshift alterations in ARID1A were the most common (19/31, 61%) alterations. The median number of mutations in ARID1A+ population was higher compared to ARID1A– population (6 vs. 4), as well as tumor mutational burden (TMB) [20 mutations/megabase (mut/Mb) vs. 1.26 mut/Mb]. Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit alpha (PIK3CA), phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN), catenin beta 1 (CTNNB1), and lysine methyltransferase 2D (MLL2) mutations were enriched in ARID1A+ population. In this cohort, ARID1A did not display any relation with response to platinum chemotherapy. Cancers with double alterations in ARID1A (ARID1A2+) were all gynecological cancers (83% endometrioid endometrial cancers).
Conclusions: This analysis provides clinical and molecular details about the phenotypes of ARID1A+ cancers, in particular the subgroup of gynecologic cancers. The high frequency of concurrent mutations in the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway among endometrioid endometrial cancers may support the proposal of a new treatment strategy based on the combination of ataxia telangiectasia and Rad3-related (ATR) inhibitor and PIK3CA inhibitor.
