Authors: Al-Tahan Farid J.
Published: May 2021

The present study was done to focus light on possible enhancement of the functional performance of male mice and female in neuronal behaviors by using L-arginine as a precursor of nitric oxide (NO). The results showed increase of latency period to reach the novel object in L-arginine treated groups and decrease in both L-NAME and methylene blue treated groups in both periods of treatment (15 and 30) days and were more prominent in male than in female mice as compared with control groups. Similar results were observed in passive avoidance latency period to enter the dark compartment. There was a reduction in latency period to reach the alternative arm of T-maze test in L-arginine treated groups and increase in both L-NAME and methylene blue treated groups in both periods of treatment (15 and 30) days in both genders. It could be concluded that L-arginine-NO pathway plays an important role in improving memory in male more than female mice.

Authors: Alwan Mohammed J.
Published: May 2021

The current study was performed an investigation in seropositive stray cats with Toxoplasma gondii and to correlate the results of pathological lesions with seropositive results of the cats. To achieve these goals, fifty blood samples and specimens from internal organs (liver, spleen, brain, kidney, intestine and lung) of stray cats were collected from different area of Baghdad Province during the period 1.10.2011-1.10.2012. Seropositive ELISA-IgG was demonstrated that 66 % of stray cats while female expressed (75 %) of seropositive ELISA-IgG were higher than male (30% ) and animals with average age 2months showed high percentage of seropositive ELISA-IgG (100%) as compared with age (adult cat) that expressed( 63.82 %) of seropositive. There was a significant difference (P≤0.01) among positive cases to anti-Toxoplasma ELISA-IgG. Severe pathological lesions were noticed in the lungs ,livers and intestines of animals that expressed high (optical density) (OD) of anti-Toxoplasma IgG ,in addition ,tachyzoits intracytoplasm of alveolar macrophages and hepatocytes as well as free zoites in alveolar space of the lung, were reported. Local necrosis with tachyzoites was seen in the brain of the cats, in addition to mineralization. On bases of the presence of pathological lesions in cats that expressed seropositive anti-Toxoplasma antibodies, it can be conclude that T.gondii is responsible for the appearance of inflammatory reaction in the internal organs of cats and there is a correlation between seropositive and pathological lesions of T.gondii infection and this parasite is highly distributed in Baghdad stray cats and it may be an important cause of abortion in the women.

The present study was carried out to investigate the therapeutic effect of Nigella sativa seeds oil emulsion as against Eimeria stiedae experimentally infected rabbits. After isolation of local E. stiedae strain from infected gallbladders, a total of 90 local rabbits (6-8 weeks age) and body weighing (750-1000 gm) were used. They were divided into 6 groups as follow: Group: 1 uninfected and untreated (control group), Group: 2 infected (untreated) with 10,000 sporulated oocysts of E. stiedae, Group: 3 uninfected and given 200mg/kg B.W. N. sativa L. oil emulsion, Group: 4 infected with 10,000 sporulated oocysts of E. steidae. and treated with N. sativa L. oil emulsion of 200 mg/kg B.W on day 16, post infection, Group: 5 uninfected and given 400 mg/kg B.W N. sativa L. oil emulsion, Group: 6 infected with 10,000 sporulated oocysts of E. stiedae. and treated with N. sativa L. oil emulsion of 400 mg/ kg B.W on day 16, post infection. Fecal sample were examined for oocyst count (16 days post infection) at each period of experiment (10, 20 and 30 days) 5 animals for each group were sacrificed, and specimens for liver, were excised for histopathological examination. The E. stiedae infected group showed deleterious pathological changes in infected livers. Both treated doses of N. sativa had significant anticoccidial activities as reflected by reduced fecal oocysts shedding and remarkable improvement of liver tissue histopathology. This improvement include restoration of normal hepatic architecture and increase of the binucleated hepatocytes, disappearance of hemorrhage between the hepatic lobules, formation of foreign body granulomas and reduction in the various stages of the parasites and oocysts in the bile ducts .The result showed that changes more rapid when animals were treated with 400 mg/ kg/ B.W of N. sativa seeds oil emulsion than when treated same emulsion at dose 200 mg/ k.g/ B.W without side effects. From the results obtained in the present study N. sativa seeds oil emulsion was safe without side effects and the dose 400 mg/kg/B.W was more effective against E. stiedae infection than dose 200 mg/kg/B.W which may be recommended for use as adjuvant therapy in clinical practices.

Authors: Amin Faraidoon AbdulSattar Muhamad
Published: May 2021

The objective of the present study was to assess the effects of various doses of Azorubine which is a food additive on the female reproductive organs in Sprague Dawley rats. Twenty four female Sprgue Dawley rats were divided randomly into 4 equal groups. Group 1(control group), group, 2, 3 and 4 were received Azorubine (5, 10 and 20 mg/kg) orally, daily for 30 days respectively. Blood samples were taken for estimation of white blood cells, red blood cells, hemoglobin and platelets, in addition Luteinizing, follicular stimulation, estrogen and progesterone hormones from the sera. The reproductive hormones levels affected drastically under the effects of different doses of treatment like Luteinizing hormone (0.69±0.25, 0.60±0.75 and 0.55±0.63), Follicular Stimulation hormone (0.17±0.11, 0.13±0.33 and 0.3±0.45), Progesterone hormone (0.50±0.77, 0.14±0.56 and 0.10±0.85), and estrogen hormone (0.45+0.43, 0.30±0.29 and 0.14±0.27) hormones were decreased significantly (P˂0.05) in groups of rats treated with each 5, 10 and 20 mg/kg doses of Azorubine respectively. Histopathologically, the ovaries treated with 5 mg/kg doses of Azorubine showing follicles at the beginning stages of growth with no Graffian follicle while the ovaries with 10 mg/kg doses of Azorubine contain fully grown Graffian follicles with no follicles at various stages as well as those with 20 mg/kg doses of treatment displaying no mature Graffian follicle with many atretic and shrunk follicles. The hematological outcomes are significantly affected by this food additive. The results of this work is concluded that Azorubine can be considered as one of the most important causes of infertility, hormonal disturbances and irregular estrus cycle in the female rat.
Reflections on Working with Defenses and Resistances in the Context of Teletherapy
Authors: Fréchette Louise
Published: May 2021

This article focuses on the challenges we face as bioenergetic therapists when doing teletherapy. It addresses the difficulty of working with defenses and resistances in a context where the client is not physically present and where we only see part of the body through a screen, in a two-dimensional representation (sessions on video) or not at all (phone sessions). It offers practical suggestions to compensate for what cannot be apprehended directly due to distant communication. It also offers some research data on the level of efficacy and on the quality of the relationship, when teletherapy is compared with face-to-face therapy. Finally, it offers practical suggestions with regards to visual fatigue and as well as some elements of understanding Zoom fatigue.
A Window on the Pandemic Emergency: Reflections and Actions
Authors: Moselli Patrizia
Published: May 2021

The article can be defined in two parts. The first concerns a more personal reflection on the meaning of the lockdown experience for me. The second part, on the other hand, represents a more theoretical reflection on online sessions and on those therapeutic factors that affect the possibility of having meaning, transformation and change, even though this modality is quite «new” for me and for many bioenergetic psychotherapists. This article highlights that every therapeutic act starts from empirical experience and then the elaboration allows the transformation of the theoretical and sensory boundaries.

Differential expression of GIPC2 in cancers of the breast.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: May 2021

Breast cancer affects women at relatively high frequency (1). We mined published microarray datasets (2, 3) to determine in an unbiased fashion and at the systems level genes most differentially expressed in the primary tumors of patients with breast cancer. We report here significant differential expression of the gene encoding GIPC PDZ domain containing family member 2, GIPC2, when comparing primary tumors of the breast to the tissue of origin, the normal breast. GIPC2 mRNA was present at significantly lower quantities in tumors of the breast as compared to normal breast tissue. Analysis of human survival data revealed that expression of GIPC2 in primary tumors of the breast was correlated with recurrence-free survival in patients with luminal A subtype and luminal B subtype cancer, demonstrating a relationship between primary tumor expression of a differentially expressed gene and patient survival outcomes influenced by molecular subtype. GIPC2 may be of relevance to initiation, maintenance or progression of cancers of the female breast.

ANTXR2 mRNA was present at significantly lower quantities in tumors of the breast as compared to normal breast tissue. Analysis of human survival data revealed that expression of ANTXR2 in primary tumors of the breast was correlated with post-progression survival in patients with basal subtype cancer, demonstrating a relationship between primary tumor expression of a differentially expressed gene and patient survival outcomes influenced by molecular subtype. ANTXR2 may be of relevance to initiation, maintenance or progression of cancers of the female breast.

Bhinneka Tunggal Ika memiliki makna mendalam bagi bangsa Indonesia. Kebudayaan masyarakat di berbagai daerah menjadi keanekaragaman dan menjadi suatu ciri khusus dari kearifan lokal yang ada. Namun di lain pihak dalam melaksanakan pemerataan pendidikan, terdapat hambatan dan aspek aspek yang terkait akan hal tersebut. Kesenjangan mutu pembelajaran antara di kota dengan di wilayah terpencil masih besar. Masih terdapat sekolah di wilayah terpencil yang masih belum mendapat atensi spesial dari pemerintah Indonesia. Bermacam permasalahan yang membatasi proses pembelajaran di suatu wilayah terpencil masih kerap timbul. Masih minimnya fasilitas dan prasarana yang kurang memadai. Fasilitas serta prasarana ini meliputi gedung sekolah beserta isinya, peralatan peralatan sekolah yang mendukung proses belajar mengajar di sesuatu sekolah, ataupun lembaga tempat belajar, serta mutu tenaga didik. Desa Karang Intan ialah salah satu dari sekian banyak desa yang terdapat di Kabupaten Banjar, yang hadapi kasus tersebut. Hal tersebut terjadi oleh berbagai faktor seperti lokasi, akses, dan penunjang lainnya yang kurang memadai. Oleh karena itu, permasalahan ini menjadi suatu hal yang harus di telaah agar menemukan solusi dari problematika tersebut.

Social meta-inference and the evidentiary value of consensus
Authors: Ransom Keith , Perfors Andrew , Stephens Rachel Gloria
Published: May 2021

Reasoning beyond available data is a ubiquitous feature of humancognition. But while the availability of first-hand data typically diminishesas the concepts we reason about become more complex, our ability to drawinferences seems not to. We may offset the sparsity of direct evidence byobserving the statements of others, but such social meta-inference comes withchallenges of its own. The strength of socially-provided evidence depends onmultiple factors which themselves must be inferred, like the knowledge, socialgoals, and independence of the people providing the data. Here, we present theresults of an experiment aimed at examining how people draw conclusions frominformation provided by others in the context of social media posts. Bysystematically varying the degree of consensus along with the number of peopleand distinct arguments involved we are able to assess how much each factoraffects the conclusions reasoners draw. Across a range of topics we find thatwhile people are influenced by the number of people on each side of anargument, the number of posts is the dominant factor driving beliefrevision. In contrast to well established findings in simpler domains, we findthat people are largely insensitive to the diversity of the arguments made.
Ideological Extremism among Syrian Refugees Is Negatively Related to Intentions to Migrate to the West

The conflict in Syria created a dire humanitarian situation, as nations around the world struggled with how best to deal with the more than 6.6 million Syrian refugees that fled their homes to escape aggression. Resistance to granting refugee status to individuals often originates in the belief that the influx of refugees endangers national security because of the presumably extremist religious and political beliefs refugees hold. The present research surveyed Syrian refugees residing in Jordan, Lebanon, Turkey, and Iraq (N = 1,000). The results revealed that the majority of surveyed refugees did not intend to migrate to the West and would rather return to their home country. More importantly, refugees most interested in moving to Western countries were the least likely to subscribe to Islamic extremism, or to harbor negative sentiment toward the West. Theoretical and practical implications for addressing the current refugee crisis are discussed.
Language Usage Changes on Addiction Across Diagnostic Manuals
Authors: Rensi Matthew , Dykeman Cass
Published: May 2021

The substance use treatment field relies heavily on the DSM as its guide to diagnosis of substance use disorders, yet many are unaware of the history of the DSM and how it has changed over time. This study utilized a diachronic corpus linguistics approach to study the substance use subsections of both the diagnostic manuals that served as the precursors to the DSM as well as the various editions of the DSM. The results show that while the overall size of the substance use sections has increased drastically, their word use frequency has not changed. This has implications for how substance use disorders are taught, how clinicians diagnose, and how future versions of the DSM might look.
Decrypting Aadhaar

The topic of Aadhaar links with the Indians in various ways. Aadhaar can be thought of as a digital infrastructure that has been an enabler and disabler in its ways. I exploresome of these ways through my article. I tried to question the proposition of introducing Aadhaar and carefully studied its theoretical bene?ts. Furthermore, I wish to explore the abominable ways in which welfare, particularly the issues, has changed with the integration of Aadhaar. We shall refer to the various themes in infrastructure studies and Foucault's works. In this research, I try to link my analysis with the major themes explored from a shared pool of resources.

Introduction: Obesity and overweight in adolescents and adults are associated with chronic diseases. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of high-intensity interval training and pre-meal water intake on the lipid profile of overweight and obese students. Methods: This was a pre-post experimental study. Twenty-seven overweight and obese students (mean BMI 26.0±3.1 kg/m2 and mean age 19.7±0.7 years) were divided randomly into three groups. The first group (n=9; BMI=26.6±3.6 kg/m2) received Plain Water Intake (PWI) intervention, whereby students received three bottles of plain water (600 mL) per mealtime (total 1.8 L/ day) and consumed ad libitum 30 to 45 minutes before mealtime (breakfast, lunch, and dinner). The second group (n=9; BMI=25.9±2.4 kg/m2) received High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) intervention and underwent three exercise sessions per week (18 minutes/day; 70–85% of HRmax) that was introduced through a video recording. The last group (n=9; BMI= 25.7±3.4 kg/m2) received a combination of PWI+HIIT intervention. Nutritional status, nutrient intake, and lipid profile [total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)] were assessed before and after the interventions. Data were analysed using paired sample t-test and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). Results: The PWI group showed a significant increase in HDL-C, while the HIIT group showed a significant reduction in TC (p<0.05). On the other hand, the PWI+HIIT group showed significant improvements in lipid profile (TC, TG and HDL-C) (p<0.05). Conclusion: A combination of PWI+HIIT intervention may be effective in improving lipid profile.

Introduction: Childhood obesity is a public health problem in Malaysia. Intake of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSB) is associated with obesity in children. There is a lack of studies on factors associated with SSB consumption in Malaysia. This study aimed to determine the sociodemographic factors associated with SSB consumption among Malaysian adolescents. Methods: Data of 2,021 students, aged 10-17 years on sociodemographic, SSB intake and anthropometrics were drawn from the school-based Adolescent Nutrition Survey 2017. A multistage stratified cluster sampling was used to obtain a nationally representative sample of primary and secondary school students. Body mass index (BMI)-for-age status was determined based on calculated z-score using the World Health Organization 2007 reference. SSB consumption was obtained from a food frequency questionnaire. Results: The prevalence of overweight and obesity among Malaysian adolescents were 16.6% and 14.7%, respectively. Malaysian adolescents consumed 1.4 cups of SSB per day. Rural children had a significantly higher SSB intake (1.5 cups) than urban (1.3 cups) children, while males (1.5 cups) had a significantly higher intake than females (1.3 cups). There were no significant differences in SSB consumption between thin, normal, overweight and obese adolescents. Conclusion: Almost all Malaysian adolescents consumed SSB during one month prior to the survey and the average amount consumed was 1.4 cups per day. Rural locality and male were associated with higher SSB consumption. There were differences in SSB consumption between Chinese and Malays, between Chinese and Indians, and between Chinese and Bumiputra Sarawak. There were no differences in consumption between the different BMI-for-age categories.

Palma y González Prada. Crónica de un distanciamiento
Authors: Varillas Montenegro Alberto
Published: May 2021

Es bien sabido que durante los últimos años del siglo XIX Ricardo Palma fue víctima de duros y continuos ataques de Manuel González Prada y sus seguidores, atrincherados en el Club Literario. Desde hace más de un siglo, los estudiosos de la literatura de aquellos años han ensayado múltiplesinterpretaciones para explicar las razones que movieron a escritores y periodistas, de preferencia jóvenes, a atacar con tanta saña al autor de las Tradiciones Peruanas. Este trabajo se propone considerar el asunto desde una perspectiva generacional, lo cual no tiene por qué extrañar, pero seinsiste en que el censurable nivel al cual llegaron los insultos se debe a la presencia en la Revista Social y en el Círculo Literario del periodista político y agudo escritor satírico Luis Enrique Márquez que una docena de años antes había atacado ferozmente a Palma en defensa del gobiernodel presidente Manuel Pardo.
