Implementation of a preoperative pathway for patients undergoing major oncologic gastrointestinal surgery
Authors: Ferrari Giovanni , Mazzola Michele , Achilli Pietro
Published: December 2023

Background: In recent year, a constant increase in life expectancy has occurred in the Western world, leading more elder and frail patients to  require major abdominal surgery. These frail patients are more prone to develop postoperative complications and are at higher risk of postoperative mortality. A multimodal, multidisciplinary approach has the potential to improve the perioperative care of these patients. Methods: A cohort of consecutive frail patients undergoing major abdominal surgery for pancreatic and esophago-gastric malignancies between March 2015 and February 2016 was selected and retrospectively evaluated using the modified Frailty Index. Surgical outcomes of this group (experimental group) were compared to a control group of frail patients selected according to main diagnosis, surgical procedures, and surgical team, who underwent major abdominal surgery before the introduction of the multidisciplinary approach (March 2013 to February 2014). Results: Between March 2015 and February 2016, 41 frail patients undergoing major abdominal surgery were identified (experimental group) and compared to similar frail patients receiving similar procedures between March 2013 and February 2014 (control group). The two groups were similar in terms of baseline characteristics (age, gender, American Society of Anesthesiology score, and comorbidities, all P > 0.050), main surgical interventions (P = 0.156), main diagnosis (P = 0.060), and tumor stage (P = 0.420). Modified frailty index and other frailty parameters were similar between the two groups (all P > 0.050). Thirty-days and 3-months mortality rates were lower in the experimental group (0% vs. 14% and 0% vs. 28%, P = 0.010 and P < 0.001 respectively). Similarly, patients in the experimental group showed a lower rate of postoperative overall (41% vs. 74%, P = 0.005) and severe (17% vs. 43%, P = 0.020) complications, while postoperative length of stay, readmission rate and post discharge institutionalization were similar between the two groups (all P > 0.05). Conclusion: The development of a multidisciplinary preoperative pathway for frail patients undergoing major oncologic gastrointestinal surgery for esophago-gastric and pancreatic surgery seems to effectively improve postoperative outcomes, with a significant reduction in the rate of postoperative mortality and complications. Furthermore, the implementation of such a pathway could help the perioperative management of these complex patients and facilitates their territorial take in charge.
Visually Estimating and Forecasting PM2.5 Levels Using Hybrid Architecture Deep Neural Network

Published: December 2023

Air pollutants, particularly particulate matter with a diameter of less than 2.5 microns (PM2.5), have been linked to a number of negative climatic and health effects, including irritation and damage to internal organs in the short and long term. Knowing current and future levels of PM2.5 is therefore crucial for both public health and environmental management. Photos of the sky and buildings can aid in assessing visibility and air quality because PM2.5 alters the appearance of the sky and its surroundings. This research proposes a method that employs digital images to not only estimate but also forecast PM2.5 concentration levels using deep learning technologies. A convolutional neural network (CNN) was used as the base layer to automatically extract image features, while a long short-term memory (LSTM) network was used as the output layer to analyze the sequence of features. The sky and its surroundings were captured hourly from a high-rise building in Bangkok, Thailand, and the ground-truth PM2.5 data were obtained from the nearest monitoring station facing the same direction. The experimental results show that the hybrid CNN and LSTM model outperformed conventional CNN models in estimating and forecasting PM2.5 levels by 5% and 30%, respectively.

Published: December 2023

A Educação Problematizadora de Paulo Freire parte da realidade imediata. Ela considera o educando como sujeito da ação educativa e propõe uma transformação radical de pensamento. A educação problematizadora parte da experiência existencial do educando, apoiada na criatividade, estimulando a ação e reflexão, visando à transformação social. Por essas características de transformações da realidade que acreditamos que a Educação Problematizadora seja ideal como aliada à Educação Ambiental, pois esta também objetiva a transformação da mentalidade humana em relação à qualidade ambiental, já que a vida depende da natureza estar em equilíbrio. A pesquisa além de qualitativa também é caracterizada como pesquisa bibliográfica. O objetivo do artigo foi discutir a educação ambiental a partir da educação problematizadora de Paulo Freire como uma forma eficiente de atingir a formação de pessoas consciências dos problemas ambientais e capazes refletir e agir na busca de soluções para estes. Foram analisados textos de vários autores que versam sobre a Educação Ambiental no Brasil e os textos de Paulo Freire sobre a educação problematizadora com base na Análise Textual Discursiva de Moraes e Galiazzi (2011). Diante disso, a análise textual discursiva dos textos demonstrou que a aplicação da educação problematizadora de Paulo Freire é de grande ajuda na formação de pessoas capazes de conscientes dos problemas ambientais e capazes de refletir e agir na busca da solução de tais problemas.

"Background: A germline mutation of the MisMatch Repairgene that causes a malfunctioning DNA system is the defining feature of the hereditary illness known as Lynch syndrome. This review will discuss the endocrine aspects of LS and highlight current advancements in the area. Methods: We searched the available literature of the last 10 years for terms such as endocrine tumors and LS. Our goal is to provide a summary of the most recent information available on the endocrine perspective in Lynch syndrome. Results: The hormonal chemoprevention methods cited are the use of combined oral contraceptives, the use of progestogen-releasing intrauterine devices, and the use of progesterone-only drugs. In addition, after surgical exclusion of the uterus and ovaries, a method frequently adopted for LS patients, it is necessary to start hormonal menopausal therapy, taking into account certain age-specific features. In addition, numerous LS-associated endocrine tumor types have been described. Conclusions: Many hormonal variants are available that are useful in the chemoprevention involved in the treatment of LS. Menopausal hormone therapy is imperative for LS patients who need it. Clinicians need to be aware of the possible association of certain types of aggressive endocrine cancers associated with LS."

Published: December 2023

Dijitalleşmeyle birlikte hayatımızı giren sosyal medya kavramı, belki üzerine yüzlerce çalışmanın yapıldığı ancak yine de bir o kadar daha araştırmanın literatüre katkı sağlayabileceği kadar derin bir yapıya sahiptir. Birbiri ardına kullanıma giren platformlar, her bir yapının hitap ettiği toplumsal kimlikler, verilen ve alınan mesajların önemi ve hareket alanları ilgili yapıyı çok daha değerli kılan özelliklerin temelini oluşturmaktadır. 21. yüzyılla birlikte savaşların dahi askeri değil teknoloji gücüyle devam ettiği yenidünya düzeninde dijital ulaşılabilirlik, ulusların sosyo-demografik özelliklerine kadar sirayet etmektedir. Bu etkinin farkına vararak hareket eden siyasi aktörler ise rüzgârın yönünü kendi çıkarları doğrultusunda çevirmektedir. İnsanlık tarihi boyunca belki de barutun kullanılmadığı tek ve en önemli silah olan kitle iletişim medyası, dönüşen dünyayla birlikte dünyanın en ücra köşesi olarak adlandırılabilen noktalara kadar ulaşmaktadır. Uydular aracılığıyla ulaşılabilen tek bir sinyal, kilometrelerce uzaktaki toplumlar hakkında fikir edinmemize ve tavır geliştirmemize imkan sağlamaktadır. Böylesi bir gücün varlığı ise dünyanın gidişatına yön veren siyasi aktörlerin en kıymetli çalışma alanlarını oluşturmaktadır. Dolayısıyla bu makalenin de sorunsallarından birini oluşturan medyanın ulaşılabilirliği ve toplumsal dinamiklerdeki dönüştürücü gücü, yeni dijital platformlar üzerinden incelenmektedir. Çalışma genelinde önemine vurgu yapılan birçok sosyal medya uygulaması arasında podcast yayıncılığı üzerinden bir değerlendirme yapılmıştır. Amerika ve Avrupa ülkeleri için varlığı ve gücü kabul edilmiş ancak Türkiye özelinde henüz bakir sayılabilecek podcast uygulaması bu makalenin irdelediği bir sac ayağı olmaktadır. Siyasi arenada sahip olduğu güç ve beraberinde yarattığı etki alanı üzerinden bir durum analizine değinilmiştir. Yeni ve etkisi tam olarak keşfedilmemiş bir iletişim platformu olan podcast yayıncılığının, dünya genelinde ve Türkiye özelindeki konumu üzerinden bir literatür taraması yapılmıştır. Böylelikle 2000’li yıllarla birlikte hayatımıza giren radyonun yeni ve kalıcı versiyonu olan podcastlerin eleştirel medya için önemine değinilerek çeşitli varsayımlarda bulunulmuştur. Bu bağlamda çalışmanın ana hattını oluşturan podcast yayıncılığının Türkiye ayağında ki siyasal yapılanması, amacı ve konumu geniş bir perspektifte tartışılmıştır.
Sosyal Medya Kullanıcılarının Mahremiyet Yönelimlerinin Farklı Değişkenler Açısından İncelenmesi
Authors: ŞAHAN Süleyman
Published: December 2023

İnsan hayatının her aşamasında izlerini bulabileceğimiz mahremiyet kavramı özellikle modernleşme sonrasında toplumsa hayatın içerisinde daha fazla belirginleşmeye başlamıştır. Modern dönemle başlayan sürecin ardından teknolojide yaşanan gelişmelerle birlikte günümüzde mahremiyet önemli bir sorunsal olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. İnternet teknolojisinde yaşanan gelişmelere paralel olarak sosyal medya kullanımı yaygınlaşmış, zaman ve mekânın ötesindeki yeni iletişim biçimleri, birey-toplum ilişkisinde yeni kavramların gündeme gelip sorgulanmasına neden olmuştur. Böyle bir sorgulama mahremiyet kavramının farklı boyutlarda ele alınmasıyla sonuçlanmıştır.

Bu çalışmada sosyal medya kullanıcılarının mahremiyet yönelimlerini tespit edebilmek için karma yöntem kullanılmıştır. Çalışmada öncelikle 707 kişiye online olarak anket uygulanmış, ardından bu kişiler arasından 8 kişi ile derinlemesine görüşmeler gerçekleştirilmiştir. Yapılan analizler sonucunda katılımcıların sosyo-demografik özellikleri arasında yer alan yaş, eğitim, meslek ve gelirleri ile çalışmada kullanılan “Çok Boyutlu Mahremiyet” ölçeğinin boyutları arasında farklılaşma bulunmuştur. Yapılan derinlemesine görüşmelerde ise katılımcıların mahremiyeti ilişkisel ve mekânsal unsurlar bağlamında tanımladıkları görülmüştür. Yine katılımcılar için sosyal medya, insanlara benliklerini sunmak için bir alan yaratmaktadır. Bundan dolayı da mahrem olması gereken her şey birer paylaşım materyaline dönüşmektedir.
Enigmatic CNS Lupus Vasculitis: A Heuristic Approach
Authors:   Rush Medical College, Szewczyk Christopher , Gonzalez Hemil ,   Rush University Medical Center
Published: December 2023

Systemic lupus erythematosus is an autoimmune disease affecting all organs of the body. It has a higher incidence in women and can affect the central nervous system (CNS) in 10% to 20% of cases. Any structure in the CNS can be involved, resulting in a varied and often complex symptomatology. CNS lupus vasculitis is an even rarer manifestation characterized by small vessel inflammation that can result in vessel thrombosis and necrosis. We present the case of a 31-year-old woman with a history of systemic lupus erythematosus and Sjögren’s syndrome who was treated at our institution for an acute exacerbation of lupus complicated by CNS lupus vasculitis. This case was particularly challenging due to concurrent bacteremia and a travel history that broadened the differential diagnosis widely, thus requiring our input as infectious disease consultants. CNS lupus vasculitis is a diagnosis of exclusion that requires a high level of clinical suspicion to arrive at a prompt diagnosis paired with aggressive management to guarantee good outcomes. In this report, we share our stepwise approach to this challenging case in a didactic manner to benefit trainees and independent infectious diseases providers who may encounter similar clinical scenarios in their practice.
New Approach for Multimodal Medical Image Fusion using PDE-based Technique
Authors: Trivedi Gargi , Sanghvi Rajesh
Published: December 2023

Accurate diagnosis of diseases is essential for effective medical treatment, and medical image fusion plays a crucial role in achieving this goal. This article proposes a novel technique for multimodal medical image fusion based on fourth order PDE-based techniques. The proposed technique uses inputted CT and brain MRI images, and applies a PDE-based technique for noise reduction and edge preservation. Subsequently, a computed fusion rule using principal component analysis is applied to generate a fused image of the brain that presents clear and essential components for medical diagnosis and analysis. The article provides a comparative study of the proposed technique with other existing techniques, demonstrating its optimal performance. The proposed technique can significantly enhance medical image diagnosis and analysis for accurate disease detection and treatment.

Published: December 2023

The desirability of fermented foods may be attributed to their benefits. This study investigated the pH, in vitro antimicrobial assays including Minimum Inhibition Concentration (MIC), Minimum Fungicidal Concentration (MFC), and disc diffusion assay of fermented and non-fermented samples of Zingiber officinale against Candida albicans, Staphylococcus aureus, and Escherichia coli. But phytochemical screening, proximate compositions, and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) were carried out only on the non-fermented sample.  The pH decreased steadily throughout while the MIC ranged between 12.5 – 50.0 mg/mL. The MIC of the non-fermented sample ranged between 25-50.0 mg/Ml. The highest zones of inhibition obtained were between 8.0 mm- 16.0 mm at 100 mg/mL, 8.0 mm- 14.00 mm at 50.0 mg/mL, and 2.00-8.4 mm at 25 mg/mL. Comparatively, the zones were higher (6.8-8.4 mm) for the fermented than for the non-fermented sample (1.8-4.0 mm) and higher against S. aureus (4-16.0 mm) than E. coli (2.0 -12.0 mm) and C. albicans (2.0-6.0 mm). The fermented sample contained alkaloids, anthraquinones, flavonoids, phlobatannins, saponins, tannins, and terpenoids, while alkaloids, flavonoids, glycosides, saponins, steroids, tannins, and terpenoids were in the non-fermented sample. The fermented sample contained 87.31% moisture, 1.24% ash, 0.29% fat, 9.73% carbohydrate, 0.24% fiber, and 1.48% protein, while the non-fermented sample contained 83.10% moisture, 1.02% ash, 0.21% fat, 14.46% carbohydrate, 0.18% fiber, and 1.24% protein. HPLC revealed Alpha farnesene (51.77), zingiberene (11.30), zingerone (14.53), 6-gingerol (12.44), and quercetin (35.21) in the fermented sample. Thus, the fermented sample of Zingiber officinale is a suitable candidate for the promotion of human health.

O amendoim é a quarta oleaginosa mais cultivada no mundo, porém para a obtenção de altas produtividades, no Semiárido, se faz necessário o uso da irrigação e adubação, seja ela sintética ou orgânica. Desta forma, objetivou-se avaliar a resposta da cultura do amendoim em função de diferentes lâminas de água, distintas doses de adubação fosfatada e níveis de adubo orgânico. O experimento foi conduzido na área experimental do Grupo Irriga, na Universidade Federal de Alagoas, Campus de Arapiraca, com o delineamento experimental em blocos casualizados em fatorial 5 x 5 x 2. Os tratamentos aplicados consistiram em 5 lâminas de irrigação: L1= 50, L2= 75, L3= 100, L4= 125 e L5= 150% da evapotranspiração da cultura (ETc) diária, 5 doses de adubação fosfatada: A1= 0, A2= 50, A3= 100, A4= 150 e A5= 200% da recomendação para cultura, 5 níveis de adubação: A1= 2, A2= 4, A3= 6, A4= 8 e A5= 10 t ha-1), com 4 repetições. Cada parcela experimental de 1,0 m² foi composta por 27 plantas, e avaliadas apenas as 10 plantas centrais. A ETc foi determinada por meio do sistema SLIMCAP. As variáveis estudadas foram: altura de planta (AP), número de vagens (NVV), número de hastes (NHP) por planta, comprimento médio (CMV), diâmetro médio (DMV) da vagem, volume de vagem por parcela (VVP), peso verde (PVV), peso seco (PSV) da vagem, e índice relativo de clorofila (SPAD). Os resultados concluíram que a lâmina L3 (correspondente a 100% da ETc), apresentou-se como a que mais proporcionou melhores resultados para as variáveis estudadas, com exceção da variável CMV que obteve seu melhor resultado na lâmina L5 (150% da ETc). Para as variáveis quantitativas obteve-se melhor resposta e maior importância com as interações entre a adubação A3 (orgânica) e A2, A4 (fosfatada), com a lâmina L3. Já para a variável qualitativa estudada, obteve melhor resposta e importância na adubação A1 (fosfatada). A água aplicada em quantidades superiores a exigida pela cultura acarreta em um menor desenvolvimento da mesma, ressaltando que não respondeu de forma positiva, devido a umidade no solo está no ponto de saturação. Para a produtividade do amendoim adubado com cama de frango, a adubação com 6,0 t ha-1 é que melhor favorece com a lâmina 100% da ETc.

With the miniaturization and high integration of electronic devices, the reliability of the devices will be seriously reduced by the small corrosion of silver plating. As common corrosion pollutants, SO2 have strong corrosion sensitivity to silver. Using the G1 limit in ANSI/ISA 71.04 as the baseline,hour-by-hour SO2 concentration data for 210 cities show that the SO2 ranges from 1-993μg/m3, with an average of 20.80% of days ratio and 8.04% of hours ratio exceeding G1 level requirements, indicate a momentary high corrosion risk in the actual running environment. For silver plating, the corrosion risk of independent parameters conforms to the law of power function. Under the comprehensive influence of multiple factors, the corrosion thresholds of some parameters will decrease and the corrosion risk of electronic devices in service will increase.

Published: December 2023

Background: Under theinfluence of Russia's war against Ukraine, there have been changes in thecontent of anumber of school subjects. These changes reflect two main needs. Thefirst set of needs is theneed to develop competences for ensuring security in conditions of military risks. Thesecond group of needs reflects theaccelerated change in social demands and attitudes caused by thewar. Theaim of theresearch is to determine thetrends of changes in thesubject of education in schools of Ukraine caused by thewar and to analyse thesubject of prevention of war risks.Objectives: Identification of changes in thecontent of anumber of school subjects allows to analyse themain trends and highlight thesubjects that are important during thewar.Methods: Theresearch used methods of document analysis, mathematical methods, especially registration and ranking, theoretical methods, including: analysis, synthesis, generalisation, comparison, induction, deduction, conclusions.Results: Thestudy showed that thecontent of many topics changed under theinfluence of thewar. Significant changes took place in thestudy of theRussian language, Russian and foreign literature, Ukrainian history and world history. Subjects such as jurisprudence, geography, etc. have undergone some changes. Changes and additions related to theformation of security skills were made in thesubjects "Basics of Health", "Defence of Ukraine", integrated course "Health, Safety and Well-being". These changes and additions are essential. For example, in thesubject "Basics of health" in individual classes, changes and additions make up almost 32% of thetotal volume of material. Thestudy made it possible to outline themain groups of changes caused by thewar.Conclusions: Identifying thechanges that took place in Ukrainian education under theinfluence of thewar is thebasis for social research and aprerequisite for further transformation of thecontent of Ukrainian education. Theexperience of Ukraine will make it possible to assess theneed for similar or similar changes in thecontent of education in other countries.
OPTIMIZATION OF THE USAGE OF 35 MM ANTI-AIRCRAFT GUN BARRELS IN TERMS OF RELIABILITY AND ECONOMIC EFFICIENCY

The scientific basis for optimizing the use of work resources of 35 mm anti-aircraft gun barrels, enabling their durability to be increased by 25÷100% while improving operational efficiency indicators are presented in this paper. The development of a new approach to assessing the durability and effectiveness of these barrels results from current solutions and capabilities of navigation and targeting systems, new generation projectiles (programmable ammunition with sub-projectiles) and real-time muzzle velocity measurement applications (while main-taining or even increasing the current muzzle velocity and rate of fire). This increases the probability of hitting floating, coastal and flying targets (especially UAVs and RAM). It has been shown that the durability and operational assessment of this class of guns (including economic efficiency) is not determined only by indicators based on the rate of fire, muzzle velocity or second burst of fire. What is now more important is the ability to reduce the rate of barrel destructive processes, resulting from the possibility of shortening the length of firing series. It has been shown that with short series, the barrels wear and the intensity of damage to the reload mechanisms are significantly reduced. The phenomenon of barrel overheating is also limited, and thus operational indicators are improved (average time to failure, continuous operation time, ammunition usage), which significantly reduces the cost of operating the guns.
Social Harmfulness of Authoritarian Political Violence

Published: December 2023

In thepolitical authoritarian reality, theuse of theterm “truth” seeks only verifiability for its justification. It will also make it possible to distort human cognitive processes and their political consequences, resulting from its translation into freedom of choice. Therefore, theissue of understanding as thefoundation of thesocial world, which is aderivative of theuniversal species consciousness and thephenomena conditioned by this consciousness, becomes of fundamental importance. Theexperience of science shows that in deliberations on awareness of pregnancy, apopular view is often confused with identity and causality. In theconditions of political violence, it consists in “mixing” consciousness with what is not consciousness, but conditions it, thebest example of which is thestrength of personality. The main goal of thestudy is anattempt to answer and at thesame time present ananalytical view of theproblem of political violence and thepolitical nature of crime. It was assumed that thedominant role in authoritarianism is played by lies and their use is reduced to employing them in theprocess of manipulation, where consciously selected universals derived from theontological understanding of truth are used to shape thedesired social consciousness. In this way, thescientific nature of thestudy is also anelement of social education with theuse of thepopular way of fighting “evil”, enabling its understanding on thebasis of theprinciples of not only criminal and material cognition.

COVID-19 may cause traumatic experiences and create stressful work environments for nurses, adversely affecting their psychosocial status. This study analyzes the professional quality of life, perceived stress levels, and coping styles of frontline nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic. Web-based survey using a descriptive cross-sectional design and a convenience sampling were used to select 244 nurses working with COVID-19 patients in inpatient, emergency, or intensive care units in Istanbul, Turkey. All participants completed a research questionnaire via Google Forms between August 7 and December 25, 2020. Multiple stepwise linear regression was used to analyze data. Participants experienced moderate levels of burnout, compassion satisfaction and stress, and high levels of compassion fatigue. They mostly used the self-confident approach coping style. Lack of training on the use of personal protective equipment, inadequate social support and the demands of emergency unit work were associated with compassion fatigue, burnout, and decreased level of compassion satisfaction. Organizational support was a predictor of seeking social support coping style and perceived stress was a predictor of a submissive and helpless coping style. This study demonstrates that interventions and coping programs are needed to improve frontline nurses’ ability to cope with stress.
Um hóspede inóspito
Authors: Petry Isadora
Published: December 2023

Partindo do solo da conhecida leitura que Freud realiza de Nietzsche, leitura esta admitida pelo próprio psicanalista apenas tardiamente; o artigo pretende elaborar uma reflexão sobre o conceito de infamiliar na teoria psicanalítica freudiana, tomando como base principal o texto Das Unheimliche (1919). Paralelamente, desenvolve aproximações entre a noção de infamiliar e o conceito de niilismo, tal como este aparece em determinadas passagens da obra nietzscheana entre 1886-1888. Reconhecendo, ao mesmo tempo, o limite e o alcance de toda aproximação, o artigo pretende tão somente extrair consequências epistemológicas relevantes a partir do confronto de Freud com a filosofia de Nietzsche, ampliando perspectivas da obra freudiana que são de interesse metapsicológico.
Racismo
Authors: Bartsch Julia
Published: December 2023

Esta resenha tem como objetivo destacar e refletir sobre os pontos levantados nos dez capítulos que compõem a obra"A psicanálise na encruzilhada: desafios e paradoxos perante o racismo no Brasil". O racismo, nas instituições psicanalíticas, ainda é percebido como um estrangeiro, tornando-se, assim, um tema incômodo. O livro acaba por servir como uma convocação ao reconhecimento de que se reproduz, nesse microcosmo, fatores estruturais do racismo, o que exige a revisão de pactos narcísicos a fim de que se construa uma psicanálise antirracista e ética e desta forma, elaborar seu próprio funcionamento.

The study was conducted to identify SNPs of quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with susceptibility to Mycobacterium avium ssp. paratuberculosis (MAP) infection in cattle. Total 20 SNPs from the cattle QTL database were selected on the basis of the potential role in Mycobacterium susceptibility and a case: control association study was conducted in cattle. Out of 20 SNPs total 17 SNPs were polymorphic and 3 were monomorphic in population. The SNP (rs41945014) was significantly associated with MAP and revealed that ODDs of GG and GT genotypes verses TT genotype were 1.22 (0.33–4.49; 95% CI) and 3.37 (1.23–9.23; 95% CI), respectively. The proportion of GG and GT genotypes were significantly higher in bovine paratuberculosis positive animals suggested that selection against these 2 genotypes may confer resistance against bovine paratuberculosis. The all other 16 polymorphic SNPs of the present investigation were not differing significantly in case-control animals.
