Efficience Alimentaire : comment mieux la comprendre et en faire un élément de durabilité de l’élevage
Authors: CANTALAPIEDRA-HIJAR Gonzalo , FAVERDIN Philippe , FRIGGENS Nicolas C , MARTIN Pauline
Published: March 2021

L’efficience alimentaire est un caractère de première importance pour l’élevage, tant du point de vue économique que comme élément de sa durabilité. Si l’efficience alimentaire peut s’étudier à différentes échelles, le choix est fait de situer cette synthèse au niveau de l’animal et des variations individuelles. Dans un premier temps, les différentes définitions de l’efficience et des critères utilisés pour l’estimer sont abordées, en comparant les possibilités offertes par les critères de type ratio et ceux de type résidu. L’ingéré résiduel (ou « Residual Feed Intake » : RFI), critère le plus plébiscité aujourd’hui dans les études sur les ruminants, est présenté. Dans un deuxième temps, les mécanismes biologiques impliqués dans l’efficience alimentaire sont passés en revue, ainsi que les moyens de les étudier. On retrouve tout d’abord ce qui a trait à l’efficience digestive, avec notamment l’impact du temps de séjour ou de la population microbienne. Puis, les déterminants de l’efficience métabolique tels que la production de chaleur, le taux de renouvellement protéique, la respiration mitochondriale, ou encore l’influence de la composition corporelle sont également détaillés. Dans un troisième temps, nous évoquons les défis à relever afin de mettre en place une potentielle sélection sur le caractère, la difficulté majeure résidant dans le phénotypage d’un nombre suffisant d’individus. Enfin, les liens entre efficience et résilience sont explorés, afin de prendre en compte la performance de l’animal sur un pas de temps plus long et d’inclure l’importance de la durabilité.

Les ruminants, comme tous les mammifères, hébergent des billions de microbes symbiotiques, constituant les « microbiotes » de la peau, des voies digestives, respiratoires et génitales etc. La composition et les fonctions de ces microbiotes dépendent, entre autres, de leur habitat. L’utilisation des approches « -omiques », en particulier le séquençage de nouvelle génération, a permis de caractériser les organismes composant les microbiotes, leurs gènes et leurs activités. Les ruminants se distinguent par la présence dans leur rumen d'un microbiote spécialisé, composé principalement de bactéries, de protozoaires, d’archées et de champignons. Situé en amont des sites d'absorption, il joue un rôle central dans la nutrition des ruminants. La production des ruminants est particulièrement influencée par le microbiote intestinal (dont la population est diversifiée et spécifique du segment considéré) et le microbiote associé à la peau de la mamelle (réservoir important de la diversité microbienne du lait cru). Ces différents microbes interagissent entre eux et avec leur hôte sous l'influence de divers facteurs de variation, dont le principal est le régime alimentaire, mais aussi le milieu de vie et les pratiques d'élevage au début et milieu de la vie de l'animal. Des études récentes montrent un contrôle génétique potentiel par l'hôte de ses communautés microbiennes. En outre, il existe une accumulation de preuves des liens entre les microbiotes et la santé animale, l'efficacité de l'alimentation, les performances, la qualité des produits et la production de gaz à effet de serre. Ces constatations justifient l'intérêt croissant des éleveurs pour les microbiotes des animaux et leur modulation.
Possibility of Assessing Pain with Biomarkers in Psychiatric Disorders

Published: March 2021

This paper presents a systematic literature review, defines methods for identifying biomarkers that are characteristic of pain, and considers their possible use for assessing pain in mental disorders. The PubMed, Scope, and Cochrane databases were searched for the subject “pain biomarkers in psychiatric disorders” between 2011 and 2021. Two independent researchers searched available databases for full-text, peer-reviewed studies and review publications using the following keywords: pain biomarkers, pain neuroimaging, pain metabolomics, pain and psychiatric disorders, pain electroencephalography (EEG), serum pain biomarkers, saliva biomarkers, and pain diagnosis. Full-text articles, clinical studies, randomized controlled trials, and systematic reviews were included in the search. The PRISMA method was used to review the literature systematically. The literature search identified 283 studies through the initially assumed inclusion and exclusion criteria. In successive selection steps, 11 studies were selected for analysis. There are three main areas of the possible use of biomarkers for clinically assessing pain in psychiatric patients, i.e., neuroimaging, changes in metabolite levels in body fluids, and gene expression changes. Despite significant research advancements, the described biomarkers are in phases of clinical trials for assessing the intensity and occurrence of pain. Discussion: Pain is a significant and disruptive symptom in patients with mental disorders. Recently, studies have proposed new possibilities for pain diagnostics by determining pain biomarkers. Biomarker research is a dynamically growing field of study. We present examples of pain diagnosis based on biomarkers from various neuroimaging methods and blood and urine analyses. The possibility of new, effective techniques gives hope for the correct diagnosis of pain, especially in patients with mental disorders, which would allow for appropriate and adequate therapeutic therapies. However, the possibilities of use in clinical practice are limited to a few methods. Assessment of pain biomarkers in body fluids (serum, saliva, and urine) appears to be the most practical and promising clinical use method. Keywords: pain assessment; pain biomarkers, psychiatric disorders
Human Voice Took Over the Role of Pheromones in Establishing Sexual Orientations
Authors: SALU YEHUDA
Published: March 2021

The biology of sexual orientations has intrigued people for generations. Many models have been providing insights to that topic, but there are still unanswered questions. In humans, sexual orientation has a learned component. Humans have to learn cues by which they identify the sex of their mates, and cues of the emotional messages that those mates broadcast. Many of those cues depend on arbitrary societal conventions. The cues are learned automatically and subconsciously during childhood, based on non-sexual experiences. When sexual orientation emerges at puberty, the youngsters cannot tell how and when they have acquired it. A model that deals with those phenomena is presented. A basic tenet of the model is that a sexual orientation is determined by the innate wirings of the brain. The model describes how the brain learns cues for identifying the sex of the mate, and cues for identifying emotional messages that the mate broadcasts. The learning mechanism is conditioning. The unconditioned stimulus is human voice. The unconditioned responses are the triggers of the physical and emotional manifestations of sexual activity. The model suggests that innate connections from auditory detectors of men’s and women’s voice onto brain centers that trigger sexual activities, such as the hypothalamus, determine the sexual orientation that emerges at puberty. Innate connections from those auditory centers to emotional centers, such as the amygdala, determine the learned emotional cues. It is also proposed that during evolution, the roles of the chemosensory system in identifying mates were taken over by the auditory system.

Optimizing Site Selection of New Cities in the Desert Using Environmental Geomorphology and GIS: A Case Study of Kuwait
Authors: Hassan Ahmed , Alfaraj Maha , Fayad Mahmoud , Allen Casey D
Published: March 2021

Choosing the optimal location for a city based on sound environmental geomorphology planning is of the utmost importance to achieving environmental sustainability, as it can spare the State and other decision-making entities a great deal of stress in the long run. GIS offers great potential for environmental planners to choose the most appropriate places for the cities of the future, especially when coupled with environmental geomorphological analyses. The State of Kuwait seeks sustainable development through the implementation of clear and specific urban plans, some of which suffer from a severe lack of geomorphological and spatially based environmental planning. This study aims to: 1) Conduct suitability modelling for establishing new cities in Kuwait, 2) Assess the current 2005-2030 urban plan, and 3) Propose possible recommendations and solutions for potential urban problems. The study relies on integrating several methods to devise a framework that will aid researchers and decision-makers in selecting optimal locations for built structures based on analysis and modelling (e.g., digital elevation model, geologic mapping, geomorphology, natural hazards, heritage/archaeological sites, military areas, oil fields, soils). Using this methodology in choosing city sites contributes to achieving sustainable development, reducing city problems, saving countries’ budgets, and saving lives. Results from this study enhance understanding of how environmental geomorphology, when combined with GIS, can be harnessed to achieve sustainable urban development in the Arabian Gulf countries and other desert countries.

В настоящее время мелководные бассейны с лугами Zostera marina L. рассматривают в качестве поглотителей атмосферного углекислого газа, способных сдерживать увеличение его концентрации. Благодаря своей высокой продуктивности взморник выделяет в среду большое количество кислорода. Для установления особенностей проявления продукционной активности мелководных бассейнов, покрытых лугами Z. marina, на примере бухты Воевода (Амурский залив, Японское море) проведён мониторинг гидрологических и продукционных параметров с различными интервалами измерений. Наблюдения продолжались 8,5 мес. (22.09.2012–07.06.2013). В зарослях Z. marina на глубине 4 м измеряли температуру, солёность, флуоресценцию хлорофилла и мутность с помощью гидрологической станции Water Quality Monitor с интервалом 3 часа. Малоинерционным оптическим кислородным датчиком ARO-USB определяли концентрацию растворённого кислорода с интервалом 1 час. Установлено два типа изменчивости содержания кислорода в среде: 1) долгопериодная изменчивость, обусловленная сезонными изменениями среды; 2) суточная в период ледостава, определяемая интенсивностью проникновения фотосинтетически активной радиации в подлёдную воду. В осенний сезон отмечены низкие концентрации кислорода, достигающие уровня гипоксии. Для зимнего и весеннего периодов содержание кислорода находилось, как правило, на уровне 100–130 % от насыщения. Высокую суточную изменчивость наблюдали в период ледостава, в отсутствие снега. В феврале амплитуда суточных колебаний концентрации кислорода достигала 730 мкмоль·кг−1, с трёхкратным пересыщением по отношению к атмосферному O2. Установлено, что максимальная скорость продукции кислорода, отнесённая к 1 г сырой массы Z. marina, составляет 6,5 мг O2·час−1·г−1. Суточная динамика кислорода в морской воде проанализирована в связи с физиологическими особенностями Z. marina (воздухоносные полости в побегах играют важную роль в динамике кислорода в среде), а также в связи с короткопериодными приливами.

The study focuses on the etymology and origin of the meaning of the term “race”, which was first used with a reference to a herd of horses with excellent (riding) characteristics and went on define human groups. Researchers examining the etymology of the word race have come up with three established hypotheses as to its origin: the “Arabic”, “Greek-Latin” and “French” hypotheses. Here, the focus is on the French hypothesis, since if the French hypothesis is applied, then the word “race” comes from the French haras, meaning “herd” (of horses) with “aristocratic”, “noble blood origin”. The original meaning of the term race referred to the quality of “blood” (“origin”) of a unique “herd” of horses or dogs. The term gradually began to be used for a “quality family” (caste) from a socially “noble” group of people (knights, bishops or king), who spoke of themselves in terms of aristocratic, noble, family origin, thus in the sense of a noble “bloodline”.

BackgroundKidney involvement in COVID-19 may manifest as acute kidney injury (AKI). This study aimed to analyze and compare AKIs in different stages of COVID-19.Methods1056 hospitalized COVID-19 patients were retrospectively evaluated and 383 of them met the inclusion criteria. Eighty-nine patients who developed AKI, but didn’t have prior kidney diseases were involved in the final analysis. Patients were classified into three groups, those who had AKI on admission, those who developed AKI in the first week and those who developed AKI starting from the 7th day. Electrolytes, acid-base status and changes in the inflammatory markers were compared. ResultsAKIs that were seen on hospital admission day were generally transient. Patients who developed AKI after the 7th day had higher peak CRP and D-dimer levels and lower nadir lymphocyte counts (p=0.000, 0.004 and 0.003 respectively). AKI that developed later was more related to immunologic response and had significantly higher mortality, reaching as high as 44% for those who developed AKI after 7th day. Hematuria and proteinuria (p=0.001; OR: 2.4; 95% CI: 1.4 – 3.8 and p=0.015; OR: 4.34; 95% CI: 1.3 – 14.3 respectively) were more common in patients who died. Hypernatremia (p=0.000, OR: 6.5; 95% CI:3.0 – 13.9) and hyperchloremia (p=0,002, OR:3,8; 95%CI: 1,7 – 8,4) were also observed more often in patients who died.ConclusionsAKI in COVID-19 is not of one kind. When developed, AKI should be evaluated in conjunction with the disease stage and possible etiologies. AKI that develops later has worse prognosis and is more related to electrolyte abnormalities.

Durian is an economically important fruit of Southeast Asia. There is, however, a lack of in-depth information on the alteration of metabolic networks during its ripening. Here, we annotated 94 ripening-associated metabolites from the pulp of durian cv. Monthong fruit at unripe and ripe stages, using capillary electrophoresis- and gas chromatography- time-of-flight mass spectrometry, specifically focused on flavor-related metabolites. During ripening, sucrose content was found to be increased. Change in raffinose-family sugars is reported herein for the first time. The contents of malate and succinate increased, while those of citrate, an abundant organic acid, were unchanged. Notably, most amino acids increased, including isoleucine, leucine, and valine, whereas aspartate decreased, and glutamate was unchanged. Furthermore, transcriptome analysis was performed to support the dynamic changes in several flavor-related pathways, and for the identification of key candidate genes. Taken together, our results could be exploited for developing durian metabolic/genetic markers in the future.
HD2-type histone deacetylases: Unique regulators of plant development and stress responses
Authors: Tahir Muhammad Sufyan , Tian Lining
Published: March 2021

Plants have developed sophisticated and complex epigenetic regulation-based mechanisms to maintain stable growth and development under diverse environmental conditions. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are important epigenetic regulators in eukaryotes that are involved in the deacetylation of lysine residues of histone H3 and H4 proteins. Plants have developed a unique HDAC family, HD2, in addition to the RPD3 and Sir2 families, which are also present in other eukaryotes. HD2s are well conserved plant-specific HDACs, which were first identified as nucleolar phosphoproteins in maize. The HD2 family plays important roles not only in fundamental developmental processes, including seed germination, root and leaf development, floral transition, and seed development, but also in regulating plant responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. Some of the HD2 members coordinate each other to function. The HD2 family proteins also show functional association with RPD3-type HDACs and other transcription factors as a part of repression complexes in gene regulatory networks involved in environmental stress responses. This review aims to analyse and summarise recent research progress in the HD2 family, and to describe their role in plant growth and development and in response to different environmental stresses.
Indoor Tracking by Adding IMU and UWB using Unscented Kalman Filter
Authors: B Venkata Krishnaveni , K Suresh Reddy , P Ramana Reddy
Published: March 2021

In recent days Internet of Things (IoT) applications becoming prominent, like smart home, connected health, smart farming, smart retail and smart manufacturing, will lead to a challenging task in providing low cost, high precision localization and tracking in indoor environments. Positioning in indoor is yet an open issue mostly because of not receiving the signals of GPS in the context of indoor. Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) can give an exact indoor tracking, however, they regularly experience the cumulated error as the speed and position are gotten by incorporating the increasing acceleration constantly as for time. At the same time Ultra Wideband (UWB) localization and tracking will be influenced by the real time indoor conditions. It is difficult to utilize an independent localization and tracking system to accomplish high precision in indoor conditions. In this paper, we come up with an incorporated positioning system in indoor by joining IMU and the UWB over the Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) and the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) to enhance the precision. All these algorithms are analyzed and assessed dependent on their exhibition.

Bladder cancer (BLCA) has a high rate of morbidity and mortality, and is considered as one of the most malignant tumors of the urinary system. Tumor cells interact with surrounding interstitial cells, playing a key role in carcinogenesis and progression, which is partly mediated by chemokines. CXC chemokines exert anti‑tumor biological roles in the tumor microenvironment and affect patient prognosis. Nevertheless, their expression and prognostic values patients with BLCA remain unclear. We used online tools, including Oncomine, UALCAN, GEPIA, GEO databases, cBioPortal, GeneMANIA, DAVID 6.8, Metascape, TRUST (version 2.0), LinkedOmics, TCGA, and TIMER2.0 to perform the relevant analysis. The mRNA levels of C-X-C motif chemokine ligand (CXCL)1, CXCL5, CXCL6, CXCL7, CXCL9, CXCL10, CXCL11, CXCL13, CXCL16, and CXCL17 were increased significantly increased, and those of CXCL2, CXCL3, and CXCL12 were decreased significantly in BLCA tissues as assessed using the Oncomine, TCGA, and GEO databases. GEO showed that high levels of CXCL1, CXCL6, CXCL10, CXCL11, and CXCL13 mRNA expression are associated significantly with the poor overall survival (all p < 0.05), and similarly, those of CXCL2 and CXCL12 in the TCGA database (p < 0.05). The predominant signaling pathways involving the differentially expressed CXC chemokines are cell cycle, chemokine, and cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction. Moreover, transcription factors such as Sp1 transcription factor (SP1), nuclear factor kappa B subunit 1 (NFKB1), and RELA proto-oncogene, NF-KB subunit (RELA) were likely play critical roles in regulating CXC chemokine expression. LYN proto-oncogene, src family tyrosine kinase (LYN) and LCK proto-oncogene, src family tyrosine kinase (LCK) were identified as the key targets of these CXC chemokines. MicroRNAs miR200 and miR30 were identified as the main microRNAs that interact with several CXC chemokines through an miRNA-target network. The expression of these chemokines is closely associated with the inﬁltration of six categories of immune cells. We explored the CXC chemokines superfamily-based biomarkers associated with BLCA prognosis using public databases, and provided possible chemokine targets for patients with BLCA.

Background: Social support and life style are important for cancer patients, and many psycho-oncological studies have shown that social support improves their ability to cope with the cancer.Aims: The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between perceived social support and healthy life style in women with breast cancer in Sabzevar, Iran 2020. Methods: In this cross-sectional study 300 of women with breast cancer are examined in Iran 2020. Questionnaires of Health Promoting Lifestyle Profile-II and Sarason’s Social Support were assessed. The data were analyzed through Pearson correlation coefficient analysis and descriptive statistics. Results: A positive relationship was found between the subscales of HPLP II and social support network total score (r=0.62, P =0.001), spiritual growth (r=0.56, P =0.001), interpersonal relations (r=0.61, P =0.001) and stress management (r=0.61, P =0.002). Strong relationship was found between the perceived satisfaction from social support network subscale and the HPLP II total score (r=0.71, P<0.001).Conclusions: The study suggests that the social support network would be strong relation to the healthy life of style among breast cancer patients. Thus, it would be beneficial to pay attention to providing social support to breast cancer patients, particularly to those who are more vulnerable. Furthermore, investigation of the most effective and efficient methods to deliver social support interventions would be worthwhile.

Introduction

Complications from urethral catheterization (UC) increase hospital stay and costs. We aim to assess the knowledge of new interns at a university hospital and to study the effect of training in the short and long terms.
Methods

New medical interns (n = 40) at a university hospital were included. Using a pre-training survey, interns' needs and their confidence level (CL) about UC were assessed. They were divided into small groups. The workshop was divided into three educational parts (PowerPoint presentation, video demonstration, and simulation with peer feedback) and a final examination. At the end of the session, an evaluation questionnaire assessed satisfaction of interns, and their new CL about UC. A distant evaluation 6 months later, evaluated the number of UC performed, the failure and the complication rates, and the need for further training. Descriptive statistics and paired t-test were used with a confidence interval of 95% and a significant p-value < 0.05.
Results

Before the training 16% of new interns felt prepared to correctly perform UC, and the mean confidence level about the skill was 6.60 ± 1.79 over 10. Knowledge of participants about the different steps of UC was variable. At the end of the training 92% were highly satisfied. All of them rated the quality of training as good, and 97% stated that the training responded to their needs. A statistically significant improvement in CL of 2.05 points over 10 (SD = 2.03, 95% CI, 1.39 to 2.72, p < 0.05) was observed on paired samples t-test. A distant assessment 6 months later showed that 274 UC were performed from which 7% failed and 4% were complicated. Further training was requested by 42% of new interns.
Conclusion

The UC training conducted at our institution helped our interns become more confident regarding UC. Continuous training is necessary for skill optimization of interns.

Background:AP2/ERF transcription factors perform indispensable functions in various biological processes, such as plant growth, development, biotic and abiotic stresses responses. The AP2/ERF transcription factor family has been identified in many plants, and several AP2/ERF transcription factors from Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) have been functionally characterized. However, little research has been conducted on the AP2/ERF genes of ginger (Zingiber officinale), which is an important edible and medicinal horticultural plant. The recently published whole genome sequence of ginger allowed us to study the tissue and expression profiles of AP2/ERF genes in ginger on a genome-wide basis.Results:In this study, 163 AP2/ERF genes of ginger (ZoAP2/ERF) were identified and renamed according to the chromosomal distribution of the ZoAP2/ERF genes. According to the number conserved domains and gene structure, the AP2/ERF genes were divided into three subfamilies by phylogenetic analysis, namely, AP2 (35 members), ERF (125 members) and RAV (3 members). A total of 10 motifs were detected in ginger AP2/ERF genes, and some of the unique motifs were found to be important for the function of ZoAP2/ERF genes.Conclusion:A comprehensive analysis of AP2/ERF gene expression patterns in different tissues and rhizome development stages by transcriptom sequence and quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) showed that they played an important role in the growth and development of ginger, and genes that might regulate rhizome and flower development were preliminarily identified. This systematic analysis establishes a foundation for further studies of the functional characteristics of ZoAP2/ERF genes and improvement of ginger.

Background

After a stroke, 80% of the chronic patients have difficulties to use their paretic upper limb (UL) in activities of daily life (ADL) even after rehabilitation. Virtual reality therapy (VRT) and anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) are two innovative methods that have shown independently to positively impact functional recovery of the paretic UL when combined with conventional therapy. The objective of the project will be to evaluate the impact of adding anodal high-definition (HD)-tDCS during an intensive 3-weeks UL VRT and conventional therapy program on paretic UL function in chronic stroke.
Methods

The ReArm project is a quadruple-blinded, randomized, sham-controlled, bi-centre, two-arm parallel, and interventional study design. Fifty-eight chronic (> 3 months) stroke patients will be recruited from the Montpellier and Nimes University Hospitals. Patients will follow a standard 3-weeks in-patient rehabilitation program, which includes 13 days of VRT (Armeo Spring, 1x30min session/day) and conventional therapy (3x30min sessions/day). Twenty-nine patients will receive real stimulation (4x1 anodal HD-tDCS montage, 2mA, 20min) to the ipsilesional primary motor cortex during the VRT session and the other 29 patients will receive active sham stimulation (2mA, 30s). All outcome measures will be assessed at baseline, at the end of rehabilitation and again 3 months later. The primary outcome measure will be the wolf motor function test. Secondary outcomes will include measures of UL function (Box and Block test), impairment (Fugl Meyer Upper Extremity), compensation (Proximal Arm Non-Use), ADL (Actimetry, Barthel Index), pain, fatigue, effort and performance, kinematics and motor cortical region activation during functional motor tasks.
Discussion

This will be the first trial to determine the impact of adding HD-tDCS during UL VRT and conventional therapy in chronic stroke patients. We hypothesise that improvements in UL function will be greater and longer-lasting with real stimulation than in those receiving sham.

Background: The most common complications in inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) are musculoskeletal manifestations that are reported in more than 50% of patients. Objectives: In this study, we aimed to evaluate the musculoskeletal and radiologic manifestations in our IBD patients.Methods: In this study on 96 mild-to-moderate IBD patients (76 UC, 18 CD and 2 undifferentiated IBD) with mean (SD) age of 39.28 (11.42) years, 44 (45.8%) were males and 52 were (54.2%) females. Patients were examined by an expert rheumatologist and their musculoskeletal symptoms were assessed. The musculoskeletal system was evaluated by Modified Schober test, Thoracic expansion (TE), Occiput to wall distance (OWD), and Patrick's or FABER test. Peripheral joints were also examined in all four extremities. Then patients were referred for pelvic and lumbosacral x-ray. Sacroiliitis grading was performed using the New York criteria. Results: Inflammatory low back pain was reported in 5 (5.2%), enthesopathy in 6 (6.5%) and dactilitis in 1 (1.1%). Positive Schober test was recorded in 5 (5.2%) and Patrick test in 3 (3.1%). Forty-nine (51%) cases had normal imaging with no sacroilliitis, endplate sclerosis was seen in 33 cases (34.4%), grade 3 and grade 4 were seen in 10 cases (10.4%). Conclusions: In the present study, 34.4% of the IBD patients had mild radiologic changes as endplate sclerosis and 95% had a normal physical examination.
