The epizootic and epidemiological situation of echinococcosis of wild animals, dogs and humans has been studied according to reporting data and based on our own research. It has been established that echinococcosis is widespread in the territory of the Karachay-Cherkess Republic. As a result of the autopsy of wild carnivores, it was found that the extent of echinococcosis invasion ranged from 20 to 50 % with an invasion intensity from 65,0 to 213,0 specimens/animal, in wild artiodactyls and rodents – from 14.3 to 30.0 % with AI fluctuations from 1,0 to 5,0 specimens/ animal. The average long-term incidence of echinococcosis in the population of Karachay-Cherkessia for 2000-2017, according to the Rospotrebnadzor Department for the Republic, is 4,0±0,4 (per 100 thousand population). In 2017–2018, 7 cases were registered, in 2019 – 4 cases of the disease, in 2021 – 2 cases, and in 2020 cases of echinococcosis in humans were not registered.

The article presents the results of morphometric and echographic studies of the uterus of a Blackand- White Holstein cow in the presence of subclinical endometritis. For the experiment, on the basis of preliminary diagnosis, we formed a group of animals (n=20), which included cows with an established diagnosis of subclinical endometritis. For morphological studies, during the period of planned economic slaughter, sectional material was selected from 10 animals with the presence of pathology. A comprehensive methodological approach was used, including clinical examination of animals, fine anatomical preparation, and ultrasound examination using the Easi-Scan:Go scanner, which includes a curved probe for 128 crystals, the scanning depth of which is 8, 12, 16, and 24 cm, the viewing angle is 60°. On the basis of the conducted studies, we have established the morphometric parameters of the central organ of the reproductive system – the uterus, with subclinical endometritis. The echographic characteristics of changes in the parameters of the organ during a latent inflammatory process are presented. Based on the results obtained, a morpho-echographic correlation of the parameters of the organ during its structural restructuring was carried out. This made it possible to assess the effectiveness of the use of ultrasound diagnostics in the subclinical form of uterine inflammation.

The article presents the results of studies of the genealogical structure of sires (n=1012 heads) of breeding farms in the Leningrad Region, as well as the breeding value (BV) of their origin, age and line branches. We used the data of the producers of the two leading lines of the Holstein breed: Wis Burke Ideal (WI) and Reflection Sovering (RS). In both lines, the majority of bulls were obtained in the USA (59,1 and 63,6 %), and 6.6 and 8,5 % of domestic origin, respectively, for the lines. The most numerous branches in the first line are identified – H. H. C. Manfred, B. M. T. Cleitus, Prelude and M. Aerostar, and in the second line – Blackstar Emori, Magic, Adam and G. Arlinda Chief. The best in terms of BV for milk yield (by BLUP) are the bulls of the B. M. T. Cleitus (+1114 kg) and H. H. C. Manfred (+888 kg) branches in the WI line; in the RS line: Blackstar Emori (+1037 kg) and Magic (+1007 kg), more preferable in the selection of bulls to secure the breeding stock of the herd.

The article presents for the first time the results of original studies on the balance of protein and digestibility of nutrients and gross energy of full-grain granular compound feed (PGK) by pregnant rabbits. In balance experiments, 2 groups of 6 heads each were formed from nine-month-old rabbits of the Soviet Chinchilla breed according to the principle of analogues. 2 balance experiments were conducted, in the first and last weeks of pregnancy. Rabbits of the experimental and control groups received PGC of the same energy value, but differing in the ratio of nutrients. The results of balance experiments indicate that protein assimilation (nitrogen balance) in the body of pregnant rabbits and the coefficients of their digestibility of nutrients and PGC energy do not depend on the gestation period, but depend on the ratio of nutrients in the diet.

The article presents the results of the analysis of the effectiveness of the use of drugs from the group of immunostimulators in the treatment of calicivirus infection of cats in the conditions of LLC Bravo Zoovetcenter Vyksa of the Nizhny Novgorod region. The effectiveness of the use of drugs depends on many factors, such as the severity of the infectious process, the resistance of the animal's body. The lower the resistance in an animal, the longer the infection lasts, and as a result, the treatment is longer and less effective. To determine the drug efficacy, the drugs Feliferon, Immunofan and Forvet were used, as well as complex symptomatic therapy. The end date of treatment was considered to be the absence of a clinical manifestation of the disease. Compared the periods spent on treatment with various immunostimulants, and found that all drugs have a therapeutic effect, but "Feliferon" and "Forvet" are more effective than the drug «Immunofan».

The article analyzes the epizootic situation in the Republic of Buryatia, considers veterinary problems associated with the special geographical status of the region, which is located in the southeast of the Russian Federation. The republic borders on Mongolia, the Trans-Baikal Territory, which has common borders with China. The intensification of international trade, tourism, interstate movement of various goods, animals, the deterioration of the epizootic situation in the world, the lack of anti-epizootic measures in the new economic conditions increase the risk of outbreaks of dangerous diseases. The occurrence of anthrax was caused by insufficient accounting and lack of passportization of old burial sites, cattle burial grounds, grazing of unvaccinated cattle on unfavorable pastures, activation of soil anthrax outbreaks. Taking into account these and other risks of possible outbreaks of anthrax, epizootic well-being is maintained in the republic through preventive vaccination of susceptible animals. The territorial proximity of adjacent territories epizootically unfavorable for rabies (Mongolia, the Trans-Baikal Territory), favorable environmental conditions for foxes (steppes and mountain slopes, the valley of the Selenga, Dzhida and their tributaries), the presence of a large number of susceptible animals, were the main components of the development of the epizootic process of rabies among foxes, whose attacks have caused cases of rabies among farm animals, in particular cattle. Infectious nodular dermatitis of cattle had serious consequences for the agricultural sector of the Trans-Baikal Territory, the Republic of Buryatia, where livestock is mainly concentrated in personal subsidiary plots and is of great help in the economic and social life of the villagers. In this regard, it is necessary to expand monitoring of the disease in the Far Eastern and Siberian Federal Districts and adjacent regions. The southeastern territories of the Russian Federation are defined as areas of risk for FMD. Carrying out specific prevention of foot-and-mouth disease makes it possible to contain the factors of the epizootic risk of foot-and-mouth disease in transboundary territories and in general in the Republic of Buryatia.

Adenoviruses are a group of viral pathogens that are commonly found in various vertebrates. The systematics of these viruses is based on the features of their biology and similarities in the organization of the genome. Representatives of the genera Mastadenovirus and Atadenovirus are pathogens of various ungulates, occurring in cattle and sheep, as well as in various deer species. The article presents the results of screening PCR studies aimed at detecting adenoviruses in biological material from wild mooses and roe deer shot in the Moscow region during the winter hunting seasons of 2019–2021. During PCR with electrophoretic detection of amplification products, primers were used for different parts of the adenovirus genome. Primers for amplification of the E2A fragment of the adenovirus genome made it possible to detect adenovirus DNA in the material from roe deer. The phylogenetic analysis of the nucleotide sequence confirmed that the virus belongs to adenoviruses and made it possible to attribute the detected pathogen to the genus Mastadenovirus. The phylogenetic tree showed the relationship of the detected virus with adenovirus of cattle type 3, mastadenoviruses of the white-tailed and northern salts. It is assumed that the roe deer is the owner of its own species of adenovirus. The features of diseases caused by mastadenoviruses and the problems associated with obtaining information about the complete genome and biological properties of the virus are discussed.

The treatment of HIV infection has become a cornerstone for the global control of the pandemic due to its benefits on individual health and for preventing the transmission of HIV. It should be started in all people with HIV infection and as quickly as possible. Ideally, it should be started on the same day of diagnosis or, failing that, within the first 7 days. Antiretroviral regimens with excellent efficacy, no significant toxicity, and convenient administration are currently available for initiation of antiretroviral treatment. They can incorporate two or three drugs and are always based on a second-generation integrase inhibitor.
Controversies in the management of ESBL-producing Enterabacterales. Clinical Implications
Authors: Maseda Emilio , Suárez de la Rica Alejandro
Published: October 2022

Extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBL)-producing organisms currently represent a major health problem. Although recently published guidelines still consider carbapenems as the treatment of choice for ESBL-producing infections, it is necessary to find non-carbapenem β-lactams as alternatives to reduce the effects associated with their overutilization. In this review we focus on these alternatives to carbepenem use. It is possible that piperacillin-tazobactam may be an alternative in clinical settings with “low inoculum” infections like urinary tract infections. Newer β-lactam-β-lactamase inhibitors (BLBLIs) are potential options too. The current available data support the efficacy of both ceftazidime-avibactam and ceftolozane-tazobactam against susceptible ESBL-producing Enterobacterales (ESBL-E). We are waiting for the results of MERINO-3 study to confirm whether ceftolozane-tazobactam is a good option versus meropenem for treating bloodstream infections caused by ESBL- or AmpC-producing Enterobacterales.

Bacteraemia has important consequences for the patient, as it is associated with worse clinical outcomes. On the other hand, unnecessarily obtaining samples for blood cultures increases costs and the workload in the microbiology laboratory. Its diagnosis implies a time delay, but decisions about start antibiotic treatment, discharge, or admits the patient must be taken during the first attention and, therefore, before known the blood cultures results. This manuscript reviews the different strategies based on clinical scores and biomarkers that are useful for predicting bacteraemia and improving initial decision-making.

Published: October 2022

Puskesmas is a health service center in Indonesia that serves the community in the closest scale. Almost all people in Indonesia today, if they want to do treatment or referrals, they must go to the puskesmas. So this study tries to analyze the services of the puskesmas and evaluate the queues in the puskesmas using the Promodel simulation. Simulation is considered as a suitable tool for analyzing service queues at puskesmas. The results of this study indicate the need to increase the number of doctors to 2 to 3 people to reduce the number of queues that accumulate waiting to be examined by a doctor. If the additional doctor points cannot be met, then the puskesmas can provide adequate waiting room facilities for patients to be examined by a doctor, the ideal number of waiting room seats for patients waiting to be examined by a doctor is 38 seats.

Published: October 2022

This study aims to determine the % solid content to the determination of the concentration of the dispersing agent / leveler. Therefore, in order to determine the correct concentration, the % solid content varied, namely 43.930%, 21.975%, and 14.650%, with each concentration of dispersing/averaging agent 0 g/l, 0.5 g/l, 0.75 g /l, and 1.5 g/l. Furthermore, preliminary testing of solid content and dispersing power was carried out before the immersion application. The results of the most optimal dispersing power test were obtained at a variation of the concentration of the dispersing agent/average 1.5 g/l with a solid content of 43.93%. The results of the dyeing process were evaluated related to testing for color evenness, color aging, color fastness to washing, and rubbing. Based on the results of tests and evaluations, it shows that the variation of %solid content and concentration of dispersing agent/leveler has no effect on the value of color fastness to washing and rubbing. However, solid content and concentration of dispersing agent/leveler have an effect on color evenness, and color darkening. In this experiment, it can be seen that the most optimal color darkening is 28.1380, while the most optimal standard deviation of 0.187 is found in the concentration of dispersing agent/average of 1.5 g/l with a solid content value of 43.93%. The value of color fastness to wet and dry rubbing is 4-5.
The Opportunities of Green Intellectual Capital for Industrial Sustainability: A Systematic Review
Authors: Damaianti Indriana
Published: October 2022

This paper aims to describe the evolution of research on green intellectual capital in exploring opportunities for future research directions. An author will try to clarify knowledge about the application of the green intellectual capital paradigm by reviewing the findings about the results achieved by industries that apply the green intellectual capital paradigm and the factors that enhance this process. A systematic review was carried out involving a final sample of a total of 23 articles published from 2011 to 2021. The database sources used in this study were Emerald, Science Direct, Publish or Perish with API Key based on a set of inclusions/exclusions for analysis and synthesis in meeting the paper's objectives. The findings suggest that green intellectual capital offers a significant framework for promoting sustainability in the industry. Despite highlighting the increasing trend of green intellectual capital, it turns out that there is still little reliable data on this issue, especially discussing the role of green intellectual capital as a framework for promoting sustainability in the industry. This paper seeks to contribute to and analyze limited articles on green intellectual capital and identify areas for further research. In theory, it would be possible to synthesize the results of green intellectual capital as an illustration of how it affects the industry and the environment. Practitioners are expected to open an understanding of the actual results of green intellectual capital to overcome the gap between theory and practice, make this value more accessible to practitioners and managers, and choose green concepts in their industry.

Authors: ÜLGER Gülay , SAZAK Hilal , UZEL ŞENER Melahat , ÖZTÜRK Ayperi , ZENGİN Musa , ALAGÖZ Ali
Published: October 2022

Aim: Central airway obstructions (CAO) are one of the main reasons for morbidity and mortality, often originate in the lungs, and are generally unresectable. Interventional airway procedure is a preferred method in these cases. This study aimed to analyze anesthesia management in patients undergoing interventional procedures for CAO. We aimed to highlight the problem and solutions that may be encountered in such cases.

Material and Method: The data of 49 patients who had interventional airway procedure were analyzed retrospectively. Patients’ demographic data, type of interventional procedures, localization of the lesion, and duration of the procedure were analyzed. Vital parameters and arterial blood gases (ABG) levels had been recorded before anesthesia induction (T1), after rigid bronchoscope insertion (T2), 20th-minute of the procedure (T3), after extubation (T4), and in the postoperative care unit (T5).

Results: The mean age was 57.90±11.99 years. The mean duration of the procedure was 34.75±15.62 minutes. The majority of the patients had American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) III-IV physical status. CAOs were mostly found in the main bronchus. Tumors debulking, biopsy, mechanical dilatation, argon plasma coagulation, and mechanical tumor resection were the most performed procedures. Stent insertion was performed in 3 (6.1%) patients. Two patients (4.1%) had bleeding, 3 (6.1%) patients had desaturation, and 1 (2.1%) patient had atrial fibrillation.

Conclusion: Interventional airway procedures are frequently used for high risk patients with CAO and comorbidities. Detailed preoperative evaluation, periprocedural teamwork, and close hemodynamic and ABG follow-up are keys to success.
Hypothermia: what are the trends in recent studies? – a bibliometric analysis with global productivity
Authors: ZENGİN Emine Nilgün
Published: October 2022

Aim: Although the number of global studies on hypothermia, which plays an important role in morbidity and mortality in adults and newborns, has increased, there is still no bibliometric research on this subject in the literature. This study, it was aimed to determine trend topics and global productivity by using various statistical analyzes of scientific articles published on hypothermia.

Material and Method: Articles on hypothermia published between 1980 and 2021 were downloaded from the Web of Science (WoS) database and analyzed using various statistical and bibliometric methods. Spearman’s correlation coefficient was used for correlation studies. Network visualization maps were used to identify effective studies, global collaborations, and trend topics with citation analyses.

Results: Out of a total of 14410 publications, 8157 articles were analyzed. The top 5 contributors to the literature are USA (n=2938, 36%), Japan (737, 9%), UK (641, 7.8%), Germany (576, 7%), and China (544, 6%). was. The first 3 journals that published the most articles were Resuscitation (n=296), Critical Care Medicine (146), Therapeutic Hypothermia, and Temperature Management (135). The top 3 most active institutions were League of European Research Universities (n=448), University of California System (274), and Pennsylvania Commonwealth System of Higher Education (221). The most active author was Marianne Thoresen (n=69).

Conclusion: The most studied trend topics in recent years are determined as hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, neonatal encephalopathy, out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, neonates, targeted management, therapeutic hypothermia, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, perioperative hypothermia, emergency medicine, outcome, mortality, and perinatal asphyxia. This study will guide the authors who want to study in this area.

Published: October 2022

Aim: The issue of which scoring system is appropriate in older adults patients with acute biliary pancreatitis is an ongoing debate. We aimed to compare the efficiency of four existing scoring systems in predicting clinical outcomes in the elderly with acute biliary pancreatitis.

Material and Method: The study included patients aged 60 years and older with a diagnosis of acute biliary pancreatitis. Clinical findings, routine laboratory examinations, and imaging findings were retrospectively accessed through the hospital information system and reviewed. Then, the efficacy of Ranson, Bedside Index of Severity in Acute Pancreatitis (BISAP), Glasgow-Imrie, and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II scoring systems in predicting mortality, severity, organ failure, complications, intensive care unit (ICU) admission, and prolonged hospital stay (PHS) were compared.

Results: The Ranson score was compared with three other existing scoring systems in primary and secondary outcomes in 364 eligible patients. The area under the curve (AUC) values of the Ranson, BISAP, Glasgow, and APACHE II scores were 0.787 (95% CI: 0.649-0.925), 0.856 (95% CI: 0.784-0.929), 0.908 (95% CI: 0.854-0.961), and 0.836 (95% CI: 0.702-0.971) for mortality. Although the AUC of the Ranson score for mortality was lower than that of the other scores, no significant difference was found in pairwise comparisons with the other three scores (p>0.05 for all).

Conclusion: The Ranson scoring system was the weakest among the assessed scoring systems in predicting clinical outcomes in older adults with biliary pancreatitis.

Authors: ŞAHİN CAN Merve , ÇAY Ferhat
Published: October 2022

Aim: Discomfort with body shape is common among individuals with obesity and has effects on their sexual life. We aimed to investigate the effects of bariatric surgery on the body satisfaction and sexual life of women in this study.

Material and Method: The study consisted of 63 female patients who were aged between 20 and 55. Pre-operative psychiatric evaluations of the candidates were conducted and Hamilton Anxiety Scale , Hamilton Depression Scale, Arizona Sexual Experiences Questionnaire and Body Shape Questionnaire were used. Psychiatric evaluations of the patients were re-evaluated in the first year after surgery.

Results: The mean age was 35.4±8.6 years. While 87.3% of the participants had moderate-severe anxiety about the appearance of their bodies before the operation, 57.1% described problems in their sexual life. After the operation, 63.5% of the participants stated that they did not have any concerns about their body appearance, and 73% stated that they did not have any problems in their sexual life. The BSQ-34 scale score was found to be higher in those with an Arizona score of 11 and above before the operation (p=0.045; p
Correlation of the transcutaneous bilirubin and serum bilirubin levels measured before and after phototherapy in newborns: a prospective observational study
Authors: EKMEN Sadrettin , DENİZ Yusuf
Published: October 2022

Aim: The purpose of the present study was to show the reliability of the transcutaneous bilirubin (TcB) measurement as an alternative method to total serum bilirubin (TSB) when starting treatment with phototherapy (PT), which is one of the most important treatment methods of hyperbilirubinemia as a very common practice in the neonatal period and eliminates the disadvantages of blood collection.

Materyal and Method: Two measurements were made to evaluate whether there was a correlation between the total serum bilirubin and transcutaneous bilirubin level measurement for follow-up in newborns who were hospitalized and prospectively followed up in the Newborn Intensive Care Unit of Karabuk University Medical Faculty Training and Research Hospital between April 13 and June 30, 2022 (Level III Neonatal Center) who were scheduled for starting phototherapy. The primary result was the correlation between TcB and TSB at the first 24 hours and after, at the initiation of FT, termination of FT, and 12 hours after PT was discontinued.

Results: The TSB and TcB values of the newborns ​​were measured at the beginning of PT, at the end of PT, and 12 hours after PT was ended. The first measurement values ​​were 11.60±5.16 and 10.72±4.02, respectively; the second measurement values ​​were 7.45±2.34 and 6.35±2.83, respectively; and the third measurement values ​​were 8.03±2.45 and 7.35±2.63 mg/dL, respectively. A strong positive correlation was found among all measurement values. Also, when the newborns who received FT for the first 24 hours were evaluated by subgrouping, the high correlation between TcB and TSB levels continued.

Conclusion: The present study showed that there is a significant relationship between TcB taken from the covered skin and TSB at the start, end, and 12 hours after PT. Also, when the newborns who received PT for the first 24 hours were evaluated in a subgroup, it was found that TCB measurement predicted the TSB level at a high level before and after PT. Based on these findings, it was concluded that TcB measurement, including in the first 24 hours, is reliable in the follow-up of newborns receiving PT for the treatment of hyperbilirubinemia. However, we think that larger prospective controlled studies are required in this respect.
Erythromycin resistance in Group A Beta-hemolytic streptococci
Authors: BALCI Pervin
Published: October 2022

Aim: Streptococcus pyogenes (Group A Beta-hemolytic streptococci, GABHS) is one of the important bacterial pathogens in clinical microbiology. It often causes upper respiratory tract infections such as tonsillitis, pharyngitis, and laryngitis. It also leads to complications such as acute rheumatic fever and post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis. Early diagnosis and treatment of these bacterial infections will prevent suppurative and non-suppurative complications, the transmission of infection to other people, and chronic carriage. Today, the treatment of streptococcal infections relies entirely on chemotherapy. Beta hemolytic group A streptococci and generally other beta-hemolytic streptococci in groups B (GBBHS), C, and G are generally sensitive to many chemotherapeutics, especially Penicillin and Erythromycin. In patients with penicillin allergy, erythromycin, amoxicillin-clavulanate, or oral cephalosporins are used instead of penicillin. However, it has recently been understood that there are strains resistant to Erythromycin in GABHS and are increasing. In this study, the situation in our region of Erythromycin resistance, which is used as an alternative for people allergic to Penicillin in the treatment of streptococcal infections, was investigated.

Material and Method: In our study, throat swab samples were taken from 150 pharyngitis patients and 94 GABHS were obtained by applying the Bacitracin-SXT test with the culture method, and antibiotic susceptibility tests were performed on these 94 GABHS by Kirby-Bauer agar disc diffusion method.

Result: GABHS was found susceptible to Bacitracin and resistant to SXT. GBBHS is resistant to Bacitracin and SXT. other beta-hemolytic streptococci were resistant to Bacitracin and susceptible to SXT.

Conclusion: In this study, Erythromycin’s resistance was found to be 19.1%. it is observed that Erythromycin resistance has increased over the years when compared to previous studies. Erythromycin should not be used empirically in treatment. An antibiotic susceptibility test should be performed and the antibiotic should be selected according to the results of the antibiogram test.
