Authors: Vendramin Igor , Piani Daniela , Meneguzzi Matteo , Benedetti Giovanni , Muser Daniele , Bortolotti Uberto , Livi Ugolino
Published: November 2020

Background and aim of the study: Sutureless and rapid-deployment
bioprostheses have been introduced as alternative to traditional
prosthetic valves to reduce cardiopulmonary and aortic cross-clamp times
during aortic valve replacement.These devices have been employed also in
extremely demanding surgical settings as underlined in the present
review. Methods: A search on PubMed and Medline databases aimed to
identify, from the English literature, the reported cases where both
sutureless and rapid- deployment prostheses were employed in challenging
surgical situations, usually complex reoperations sometimes even
performed as a bail out procedures. Results: We have identified 25
patients in whom a sutureless or a rapid-deployment prosthesis were used
in complex redo procedures. In 17 patients a failing stentless
bioprosthesis was replaced with a sutureless (n=14) or a rapid
deployment valve (n=3). Bioprostheses implanted at first operation were
mainly Freestyle (n=11) or Prima Plus (n=3) aortic roots, while Perceval
(n=13) and Intuity (n=3) were those most frequently employed at
reoperation. A failing homograft was replaced in 6 patients using a
Perceval (n=5) or an Intuity (n=1) bioprosthesis while a Perceval was
used to replace the aortic valve in 2 patients to treat failure of a
valve-sparing procedure. All patients survived reoperation and are
reported alive 3 months to 4 years postoperatively. Conclusions:
Sutureless and rapid-deployment bioprostheses have proved effective in
replacing degenerated stentless bioprostheses and homografts in
challenging redo procedures. In these setting, they should be considered
as a valid alternative not only to traditional prostheses but also in
selected cases to transcatheter valve-in-valve solutions.
Impact of host evolutionary history on endosymbiont genome evolution: a test in Camponotus carpenter ants and their Blochmannia endosymbionts
Authors: Manthey Joseph , Giron Jennifer , Hruska Jack
Published: December 2020

Mutualism discernibly connects the evolution of two or more interacting
taxa. Endosymbioses, especially those that are obligate, are an intimate
mutualism that link the evolution of host and endosymbiont. In these
instances, we may expect codiversification of hosts and endosymbionts as
well as host demography discernibly affecting the course of endosymbiont
evolution. While many studies have demonstrated cospeciation of hosts
and endosymbionts, detailed investigations of the impact of host
demography on endosymbiont molecular evolution are generally lacking.
Here, we sequenced complete genomes of carpenter ants (Genus Camponotus)
and their Blochmannia endosymbionts to investigate their
codiversification and test hypotheses about how host demography impacts
molecular evolution in endosymbionts. Using whole genome phylogenomics,
we identified strong signatures of codiversification between carpenter
ants and their endosymbionts. We found that endosymbiont genes have
evolved rapidly, at a pace of ~30x that of their hosts.
Using multiple tests for selection in Blochmannia genes, we found
signatures of positive selection and shifts in selection strength across
the phylogeny. We identified a positive relationship between host
demography and shifts toward intensified selection in endosymbiont
genes, but no relationship between host demography and shifts toward
relaxed selection in endosymbiont genes. About 10% of the Blochmannia
genes exhibited variable presence and absence across endosymbiont
genomes. Of those, about half exhibited phylogenetic signal, indicating
somewhat random patterns of gene loss in endosymbiont genomes. Lastly,
we found no relationship between host demography and endosymbiont gene
loss.

Published: November 2020

Small rivers are important in terms of water quantity and quality as these rivers collect and deliver water to medium and large rivers downstream. Due to low water flow and high connectivity to adjacent land, small rivers are highly vulnerable to changes caused by natural and anthropogenic factors. This paper aims to assess the chemical and ecological quality of two small rivers including the Slocene and Age as related to dominant land use cover in the contributing area of these water bodies. The effects of land-use patterns and concentrations of chemical substances TN, NO3 --N, NH4 +-N, TP and PO4 2--P in river waters will be determined. The highest concentration of total nitrogen (TN) as measured in the Slocene river was 21 mg L-1 in spring, while the lowest concentration of TN was 0.86 mg L-1 in autumn. The highest concentration of total phosphorus (TP) in the Slocene river was 0.14 mg L-1 in late summer, the lowest was 0.03 mg L-1 in late autumn. Similarly, in the Age river, the highest concentration of TN was 4.90 mg L-1 in spring, while TN the lowest concentration of TN was 0.51 mg L-1 in late autumn. The highest concentration of TP in the Age river was 0.3 mg L-1 in summer, while the lowest 0.05 mg L-1 in autumn.

Published: November 2020

Auxin has an important role to control both of the growth and tropism of gynophore and the development of fruit and embryo of peanut (Arachis hypogaea (L). Merr.). The experiment was carried out to examine the contents of auxin during peanut development, i.e. at the time of anthesis (day 0), at day 4, 7, 10, 15, 18, 23, and 31 after anthesis, using High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) with fluorescence detector method. Between the day of anthesis to the day 31 after anthesis, the auxin contents changed according to fruit development stage. The free auxin contents in the developed fruit (entering the soil) were higher than undeveloped fruit (not entering the soil), while the bound auxin content in the developed fruit were lower than undeveloped fruit. The lowest free auxin contents was found at the time of anthesis, then increased drastically when the gynophore grew fast and in the beginning of embryo development stage (day 7). Between the day 7 to the day 15 after anthesis, the free auxin contents were decreased. In the development fruit, the free auxin contents increased when the fruit begin to grow (day 15-18), then decreased until the seed reached its full size (day 31). In the undeveloped fruit, the free auxin contents decreased at day 7 to day 31. The bound auxin contents in the developed fruit decreased until the day 18, and increased gradually until day 31. In the undeveloped fruit, the bound auxin contents decreased at day 15 and afterward.

The structure of the European Union producer price indices, nominal total agricultural production varies from one country to another. The EU agricultural price indices involve the index of producer prices of agricultural products and the index of purchase prices of the means of agricultural production. The purpose of agricultural price indices is to unveil trends in the prices of individual agricultural products and purchase prices of the means of agricultural production. Moreover, the objective of the applying statistics on agricultural prices is to make comparisons between member states and also for economic analyses. Absolute agricultural prices are needed for many model calculations and for the ascertainment of price elasticity. The means through which these objectives could be achieved are believed to be when the absolute prices are compared between the member states, and also, when the products for which the prices from the respective member state are to be recorded for economic relevance. These objectives are not always compatible and sometimes require some compromise. In this study, we evaluate the price indices of domestic agricultural production as a whole in the EU24, using the most accurate association model of the Categorical Data Analysis. Figures from the Eurostat office calculated on annual base year from 2005-2017 were used to analyse this study. Since the main focus is to have a better understanding of producer price indices, nominal total domestic agricultural production, the analysis of association table (ANOAS) is given in order to ascertain the percentage of the data which is covered by each model. We find and estimate the association model with the best fit and in conclusion we find out that the Row-Effects Association Model (R) has the best fit because it covers 93% of the data, thereby giving the best fit among all.
The Immigration Issue in the Field of Sociological Research
Authors: Nikolaou Sousanna-Maria
Published: November 2020

Concerns about continuous migration flows in recent decades have been politically adequately communicated globally by European politics. However, no European country has developed a social policy with appropriate precautionary measures to address logistical and political-cultural problems arising from the movement of large numbers of displaced people, problems that concern not only the host countries but also the countries of origin of immigrants. And although discussions at the level of studies on the immigration problem and its effects on the dominant culture have started too early, there is still a lack of research on the cultural side of migration and its implications for the political cultures of the host countries. Only isolated cases of reactions and discussions about the immigration policy of countries that welcome immigrants can be found in the literature. The present study first describes the situation that has been developed in Greece and Europe in the last five years by the increased number of refugees and migrants, which began to arrive, mainly through the Mediterranean, in Greece with a distant destination in the countries of Central and Northern Europe. Moreover, the study focuses on the areas of research that science needs to explore and study, in order for European policy to draw the necessary elements to formulate a strategic policy for the integration of migrants in host countries.
Preliminary Re-design of an Axial Turbine in an Existing Engine to Meet the Increased Load Demand
Authors: Agbadede Roupa , Uwakwe Dennis , Allison Isaiah
Published: November 2020

This work presents a preliminary design of an axial turbine section in an industrial gas turbine. The design was necessitated following the need to provide a gas turbine of a power output in the range of 48 to 60MW for a mini-city harbouring an oil rig, which was not possible with the old engine. The turbine section is designed to produce a power capable of driving the compressor as well as produce a useful power for electricity. Using proprietary gas turbine performance simulation software called TURBOMATCH and a computer program written in Microsoft Excel, a redesign of the axial turbine component was achieved. Consequent upon redesigning the axial turbine, a preliminary analysis was carried out to ascertain the new turbine stages introduced. The analysis revealed that when one or two turbine stage(s) was used for new engine, it proved unsatisfactory as the blade loading coefficient and the flow efficiency were both beyond the limit acceptable for an optimum performance. A three stage turbine was finally employed having provided a loading coefficient of 2.1, 1.9 and 1.7 for the first, second and the last stages respectively.

Pedagogical Compatibility as a Contemporary Problem
Authors: TOPUZYAN Aida
Published: December 2020

One of the main problems of contemporary pedagogy is the necessity to consider pedagogical compatibility from an ideological point of view.

It dictates to study the problem of interaction between the teacher and the learner, affect one another's physical and psychological health, and maintaining one another's health in the pedagogical process. The article is based on the results of our questionnaire surveys, conversations among teachers, students, and their parents.

The surveys revealed that in some schools still persists the teacher’s authoritarianism and intolerance towards pupils. While organizing the pedagogical process, only a small part of teachers emphasized the health requirements of the lesson, most of them did not pay attention to the problem of pedagogical compatibility, in particular, the process of interaction between the student and teacher was not considered from the point of view of the health of both. However, the majority of teachers realize that the quality of their pupils' education, the effectiveness of their work, the motivation of children towards education, ensuring their creativity and safety at school largely depend on it.

  Thus, the question was raised that in the processes of professional education and advanced training of teachers to seriously discuss this problem and provide relevant pieces of knowledge and competencies to the beneficiaries. All of this has prompted the need to enrich the theory of the term “Pedagogical compatibility” and develop a methodological system for its practical implementation. The article defines the essence of the new term “Pedagogical compatibility for health protection”. The principles, methods, the pedagogical conditions necessary for its implementation, the model of competencies the teacher needs in this field are presented.

An Analysis of the Effects of Livestock Support Policies on Breeders: An Example of TR83 Region in Turkey
Authors: Erdal Gülistan , Erdal Hilmi , Çiçek Adnan
Published: November 2020

This paper studied the effect of livestock support policies applied in Turkey by a emprical study. The study was carried out based on the analysis of the data collected through surveys with a total of 478 livestock enterprises in the TR83 region (including Amasya, Çorum, Samsun and Tokat provinces). The enterprises included in the survey study were grouped into three categories by the number of their animals. Binary Logistic Regression Model was applied in order to define the policy-based support payment utilization probabilities of the enterprises and the factors affecting them. It was determined that approximately 45% of the enterprises cannot utilize livestock supports. The most utilized support items by the enterprises were determined as calf support, support per animal, forage plant support and raw milk support. A total of 65% of the enterprise owners think that the support amount per animal is insufficient, but regard the mentioned support item as the most important factor for improving animal presence. The utilization rates vary in terms of enterprise scales on the other hand. The support utilization likelihood of medium-scale enterprises is 3.1 times higher than small-scale enterprises, and this likelihood is 1.7 times higher for big-scale enterprises when compared with medium-scale enterprises. The study recommends that some regulations are needed in support of policies to enable a better improvement in animal presence and a homogenous distribution of support payments.

Authors: Şimay Taner , Karademir Basaran
Published: November 2020

This study aimed to reveal relationship between the extensiveness of trichophytosis on the body and serum zinc levels in cattle. This study was carried out on 92 cattle with trichophytosis and 50 healthy ones. Serum zinc levels of healthy cattle were evaluated as control. The cattle with trichophytosis separated into 5 groups according to diffusiveness of the diseases. Experimental groups of this study were designed as follows; Group 1: up to 1 cm, Group 2: 1-5 cm, Group 3: 5-10 cm, Group 4: 10-20 cm and Group 5: widespread on the body. Serum zinc levels measured by atomic absorption spectrophotometer equipped with flame system. In general, the mean level of Zn in trichophytosis groups (0.613±0.013 mg Zn/L) was statistically lower than healthy ones (0.900±0.017 mg Zn/L). A negative correlation was determined between the diffusiveness degree of trichophytosis and serum zinc levels (r = -0.772). Serum Zinc levels were statistically decreased from the control group to group 3. However, a stable course was observed from 3 to 5. Therefore, the value of group 3 (0.6 mgZn/L) was determined as a critical value for the cattle with trichophytosis. According to regression analysis results, it was observed that the extensiveness of the trichophytosis lesions affected the levels of serum Zn levels significantly (r2=59.6%). Consequently, serum zinc levels of cattle decreased in an inversely proportional manner to the diffusiveness degree of trichophytosis and stabilization was observed at the level of 0.6 mg Zn/L.

Processing of melon plays a significant role in the livelihood of rural women as it serves as their major occupation. Despite its significant role, the women processors were faced with some challenges. This study, therefore, identified the challenges faced by women in melon processing in Enugu-Ezike Agricultural Zone of Enugu State, Nigeria. Primary data were collected from 80 respondents using a structured questionnaire coupled with an interview schedule and analysed using descriptive statistics. The results showed that the majority of the women processors were advanced in age, well experienced, do not belong to a cooperative society, and relied strictly on processing melon as their source of livelihood. They had an average income of N286,400 (USD 751.71) per annum. Low capital, poor credit facilities, high transportation cost, price fluctuation, rapid deterioration, low supply of melon, poor storage facilities, high cost of processing machine, and breakage of seed were the identified constraints facing them. The study recommended that the women processors should form a cooperative society which will help in financing and easy marketing of their products. Also, the government should provide financial assistance, good storage facilities, and subsidized melon processing machine to increase efficiency.

Published: November 2020

Newcastle disease (ND) is one of the major viral diseases of poultry, remains a constant threat in poultry farms that causes huge economic losses every year. However, little is known regarding the potential risk factors of the disease in broiler. The study was undertaken to ascertain the potential risk factors and biosecurity measures in ND prevalent broiler farm. A total of 116 broiler farms were considered as a sample size from a different area of Barishal district of Bangladesh in which 19.83% ND prevalence was found. In the findings, the farmers (33.62%) who had training on poultry farming, were significantly less ND positive case (7.69%). Besides this, among the different risk factors and biosecurity measures only shed location, ventilation, vaccination status, feeder and waterer cleaning frequency, visitors accession, pets in the farm, use of disinfectant and seasonal variation had significant effect on ND outbreak. However, among all the factors only farmers training (OR=0.025; 95% CI: 0.001-0.509), shed location (OR=0.035; 95% CI: 0.003-0.390), vaccination against ND (OR=0.017; 95% CI: 0.001-0.435) and use of disinfectant daily (OR=0.011; 95% CI: 0.000-0.294) made a unique statistically significant contribution to the regression model and the predictors had approximately similar strength on reporting ND outbreak. In completion, ND can be reduced in broiler farms by improving the level of common biosecurity, farm management practices, and minimizing the potential risk factors through training of farmers, awareness build-up, and enforcement of these practices on the farms.
Optimisation of Plant-based Milk Formulation using Hazelnut, Sunflower Seed and Pumpkin Seed by Mixture Design
Authors: Kuru Canan , Tontul İsmail
Published: November 2020

The preference for plant-based foods has been increased in recent years. Animal milk alternatives, named as plant-based milk, are produced from different oilseeds, nuts and cereals by a series of processing steps. These plant-based milk have different advantages over animal milk such as being lactose and cholesterol-free and having a high content of phenolics, minerals and unsaturated fatty acids. On the contrary, they generally have a lower content of proteins and low sensorial acceptability. To overcome these disadvantages, an optimisation by mixture design was carried out to produce high-quality plant-based milk in terms of chemical, physical and sensorial properties. The results showed that dry matter (7.7-11.5 g/100 mL) and ash (0.11-0.46 g/100 mL) content of the samples increased using a combination of sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds. Total phenolic content and DPPH radical scavenging activity of plant-based milk were governed by the ratio of sunflower seeds. Hazelnut ratio in the samples had a positive impact on protein content (0.17-1.85 g/100 mL), whiteness index, serum stability and sensorial properties. The optimum formulation was determined as 66.3% hazelnut, 0% pumpkin seed and 33.7% sunflower seed. Verification studies showed a good agreement between theoretical and experimental responses.

2018 yılı verilerine göre Çanakkale ili Türkiye kanola üretiminde %7,5‘lik pay ile 5. sırada yer almaktadır. Bu çalışmada, araştırma alanı olarak belirlenen Çanakkale ilinde, 2018 yılında kanola üreten ve Tam Sayım Yöntemine göre tespit edilen 83 işletmeden elde edilen veriler yardımıyla, kanola üretiminde kullanılan girdilerin miktar ve parasal değer bakımından işletme büyüklük grupları arasında farklılık olup olmadığının tespit edilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Elde edilen analiz sonuçlarına göre; birim alana kullanılan girdilerin bedelleri arasında sadece ilaç girdisinin işletme büyüklük gruplarına göre %5 düzeyinde, birim alana kullanılan girdi miktarı dikkate alındığında sadece makine işgücü isteği değerinin işletme büyüklük grupları arasında %5 düzeyinde istatistiki yönden farklılık gösterdiği anlaşılmıştır. Araştırma bulguları incelenen işletmelerde girdi kullanımı açısından, işletme grupları arasında istatistiki yönden önemli bir fark bulunmadığını, bu durumun da kanola üretim teknolojisindeki benzerlik yanında büyük işletmelerin ölçek ekonomisinin pozitif yönlerinden faydalanamadığını göstermektedir. Bu nedenle orta ve uzun vadede genelde tarımsal üretimde özelde ise kanola üretiminde işletmelerin üretim düzeyleri dikkate alınarak farklı araçlarla ve değişik yöntemlerle desteklenmesi gerektiğini ortaya koymaktadır.

The maize weevil (Sitophilus zeamais) is one of the main insect responsible of significant losses in stored products, and to keep nutritional value of them to find effective and safe solutions are very important. The Hypericum genus might be a potential source of new bio-insecticides due to the chemical composition of essential oils. In this study, components of essential oils of three Hypericum species were investigated for first time by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) and, fumigant and contact toxicities as well as the repellent activity of essential oils of them were evaluated against S. zeamais adults. While the main components in H. mexicanum oil were determined as n-nonane (53.08%) and α-pinene (25.28%), the major constituents were determined as α-pinene (45.52%) and β-caryophyllene (13.59%) in the essential oil of H. myricariifolium. Chemical composition of essential oil of H. juniperinum were found to be n-nonane (12.0%), α-pinene (8.25%), geranyl acetate (7.93%), and β-caryophyllene (13.60%). The results revealed that H. mexicanum and H. myricariifolium oils have fumigant toxicity (LC50 < 500 µL/L air) and a potential action as repellents (RP > 70% at 6.2–22.7 μL/L air) for the control of the pest.

Secondary metabolites of Tanacetum alyssifolium (Bornm.) Grierson (Asteraceae) were investigated for the first time. Thirteen compounds including axillarin (1), Luteolin-7-O-β-glucoside (8) and rutin (13) as flavonoids, fraxetin (7), isofraxidin (9), isofraxidin-7-O-glucoside (11) and fraxidin (12) as coumarins, tatridin A (2), altissin (3), tamirin (4) and tanachin (5) as sesquiterpene lactones and 2,4-dihydroxy-6-methoxy acetophenone (6) and picein (10) as acetophenone derivatives were isolated from the methanol extract of the species. The structures of all isolated compounds were elucidated by 1D and 2D-NMR techniques and by comparing with the literature data. In addition, in vitro cytotoxic activity of all isolated compounds was evaluated against breast cancer MCF-7 cell line by XTT assay. Sesquiterpene lactones; tatridin A (2), tamirin (4) and tanachin (5) were found to be the most cytotoxic molecules against MCF-7 cell line.

Phytochemical study of the ethanolic extract of the fruits of Gleditsia aquatica and Gleditsia caspica resulted in the isolation of the triterpene saponins; aquaticasaponin A (1), aquaticasaponin B (2), caspicaoside L (3) and caspicaoside M (4). Compound (1) showed good activity against methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) (IC50 =16.3 μg/mL) and Staphylococcus aureus (non-MRSA), (IC50 =12.2 μg/mL) and it expressed considerable cytotoxic activity against BT-549 (Human Ductal Carcinoma, Breast), KB (Human Epidermal Carcinoma, Oral) and SK-MEL (Human Malignant Melanoma) with IC50 values of 8.3, 10.0 and 3.3 μg/mL, respectively. Compounds (2) and (3) showed potent cytotoxicity against BT-549 with IC50 values of 5.3 and 7.3 μg/mL, and against SK-MEL with IC50 values of 4.3 and 3.1 μg/mL, respectively. Compound (4) showed good cytotoxicity against KB with IC50 value of 7.3 μg/mL. In consistent, the study of molecular determinates of cytotoxic activity of these new scaffolds showed close high docking scores to CD81 (Cluster of Differentiation 81) human antigen which could be of great importance for the development of new cytotoxic candidates. The structure identification of isolated metabolites was carried out using 1D and 2D NMR and mass spectra.

Objetivo: Realizar uma revisão narrativa acerca dos impactos na saúde mental de crianças e adolescentes durante períodos de pandemia. Revisão bibliográfica: Foram analisadas as múltiplas consequências para a saúde mental infantojuvenil, avaliando-se os aspectos relacionados a doença em questão e suas repercussões psicossomáticas desencadeadas ou intensificadas em momentos excepcionais de isolamento social. Verificou-se prevalência do medo em perder familiares ou de adoecimento, ao ponto de desencadear pensamentos negativos constantes. Diversos acontecimentos durante a pandemia podem ser traumáticos para esta faixa etária, sejam o confinamento a pequenos espaços, a falta de interação social ou a ameaça da doença, podendo gerar problemas agudos ou crônicos. Considerações finais: As pandemias estão associadas as mais diversas implicações na vida de crianças e adolescentes, podendo ser observadas sensações de medo, tédio e solidão, além de alterações dos padrões de sono, alimentação e comportamento. Portanto, é fundamental que a família assuma um papel de proteção e cuidado, desenvolvendo atividades lúdicas e práticas para aliviar o estresse, dentro de um ambiente seguro e acolhedor, respeitando os limites de uma rotina saudável e contribuindo para a preservação do bem-estar e apoio mútuo dentro da coletividade.
