Objective: To investigate the effect of clopidogrel gene polymorphism on platelet reactivity and major cardiovascular events in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Methods: 149 patients with ACS who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University from January to December 2019 were included. All patients were tested for clopidogrel related genotypes after admission. Aspirin (100 mg/d) and clopidogrel (75 mg/d) were taken regularly after operation, and the inhibition rate of platelet aggregation (IPA) induced by adenosine diphosphate (ADP) was detected. According to the IPA results, the patients were divided into two groups: high platelet reactivity (HPR) group after clopidogrel treatment (IPA < 30%) and low platelet reactivity (LPR) group after clopidogrel treatment (IPA > 30%). Results: According to IPA results, there were 23 cases (15.44%) in HRP group and 126 cases (84.56%) in LRP group. The IPA induced by arachidonic acid (AA) in HRP group was significantly lower than that in LPR group (p < 005). There were significant differences in CYP2C19*2, CYP2C19*3, ABCB1 AND PON1Q192R loss of function (LOF) alleles between the two groups (p < 005). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that CYP2C19*2DF allele was associated with mace after PCI (or = 3112, 95%СI 1048~9241, P = 0.041). Conclusion: Clopidogrel gene polymorphism has certain effect on platelet reactivity in patients with ACS. CYP2C19*2 gene mutation is related to mace after PCI.
Renal lithiasis and cardiovascular risk
Authors: Abib Anabel , E. del Valle Elisa , Laham Gustavo , Spivacow Francisco R.
Published: August 2024

Renal lithiasis (RL) is a common disease whose prevalence has increased in recent years. It is now considered a systemic pathology, not limited to the kidney and urinary tract, but largely related to diabetes mellitus, obesity, arterial hypertension, hyperuricemia, hypercholesterolemia, and chronic kidney disease, all cardiovascular risk factors that are often linked to severe events such as stroke, coronary heart disease, or acute myocardial infarction. Numerous crosssectional studies and meta-analyses have demonstrated the association between these two entities. In this review we will attempt to demonstrate the mechanisms involved in the pathophysiology of RL and its relationship with cardiovascular disease. As mechanisms involved, three associations are mentioned. The first refers to oxidative stress and inflammation. The second association refers to the presence of lithogenic mechanisms that contribute to vascular calcification. The last theory is the already known association of obesity, metabolic syndrome, diabetes and HT, all risk factors for the development of RL as well as cardiovascular disease, remembering that RL is the cause, in 8%, of the development of chronic kidney disease, another risk factor for cardiovascular disease and death. In conclusion, the theory that RL is not a disease limited to the kidney and urinary tract, but a systemic disease, with a risk of cardiovascular events so severe that they can lead to death, is confirmed

Published: August 2024

Objective: The cardiac muscle cannot be anatomically free in the thorax and without a support to fulfill its hemodynamic function. Therefore, the possibility of the existence of a support point acting as a lever was analyzed.

Material and methods: We used: 1) cardiac dissection in ten young bovine hearts [800-1000 g]; 2) cardiac dissection in eight human hearts: one embryo of 23 weeks gestation; one 10 year old, 250 g; and six adults, mean weight 300 g. The myocardial band was unwound completely. The myocardial band was uncoiled in its entirety. The extracted pieces were analyzed for anatomy and histology. The investigation was completed with simple radiographic imaging studies, magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography. Results: In anatomical investigations we have found in all human and bovine hearts studied a nucleus underlying the right trigone of bone-chondroid-tendinous histological structure. Microscopic analysis revealed in bovine hearts a trabecular osteochondral matrix [fulcrum]. In all human hearts the fulcrum was found to be formed by chondroid tissue. In this structure, not described by other authors, the origin and end of the myocardial fibers have muscular insertion. Imaging techniques confirmed its existence. Conclusions: The cardiac fulcrum found in the anatomical investigation of human and bovine hearts would clarify about the necessary fulcrum of the myocardial muscle to complete its twisting movements.

Published: August 2024

Debido al carácter polisémico y multidimensional de la noción calidad y de su creciente relevancia en la educación superior, es necesario sentar bases que permitan conceptualizarla en función de su contexto de aplicación, de modo de dar sustento y consistencia al diseño de políticas focalizadas. El artículo expone los principales lineamientos metodológicos y resultados de una exhaustiva revisión bibliográfica orientada a esos efectos, centrada en la identificación de las concepciones y principales componentes de la calidad de la educación superior en artículos publicados entre 2016 y 2020 en revistas de alto impacto internacional. La revisión, que siguió los lineamientos axiales del método PRISMA-P, dio lugar a la selección de 186 artículos (del universo inicial de 53.290), luego sometidos a un análisis por codificación abierta inductiva. Los principales resultados fueron que los componentes de la calidad de la educación superior valorados como más importantes corresponden a aspectos propios del centro educativo (organización, gestión, recursos materiales, ambiente de estudio) y, contrariamente a lo esperado, que no existe una correlación significativa entre los componentes valorados como principales y las estrategias empíricas adoptadas para su caracterización (cuantitativas, cualitativas, mixtas) ni entre aquellos y las unidades de análisis consideradas (estudiantes, docentes, directivos, funcionarios, egresados, empleadores).

Authors: Dorr Paul , Gebreyes Wondwossen
Published: August 2024

Objectives: To assess the effect of flavophospholipol on Salmonella shedding and antimicrobial resistance via a plasmid-curing mechanism. Materials and methods: Fifty-six pigs (60 days old) that tested negative by culture for Salmonella were allocated into four treatment groups and challenged with either Salmonella serovar Typhimurium DT104 or Salmonella Typhimurium DT193. After challenge, each treatment group was fed one of four feed rations: a ration containing no antimicrobials (Control) or the same ration containing either flavophospholipol (F), penicillin and chlortetracycline (PCt), or penicillin, chlortetracycline, and flavophospholipol (PCtF). Fecal samples were obtained weekly for 20 weeks (three samples pre-challenge and 17 post challenge) and processed for Salmonella isolation and antimicrobial-resistance testing. Results: For pigs challenged with phage type DT193, the duration of Salmonella shedding was significantly shorter in the PCtF group than in the controls, with a hazard ratio (HR) of 4.51 (P = .01). Overall, shedding time was significantly shorter in pigs challenged with DT104 than in those challenged with DT193 (HR 13.6; P < .001). The proportions of both DT104 and DT193 isolates resistant to ampicillin and amoxicillin-clavulanic acid were significantly lower after treatment with flavophospholipol. Implications: Growth-promotion levels of antimicrobials can decrease the shedding time of S Typhimurium in clinically healthy animals. Use of in-feed flavophospholipol may result in loss of resistance of S Typhimurium to certain classes of antimicrobials.

Authors: Yi XueWu , Zhang ShiRui , Yang Qiang , Yin HuiHong , Qiao ShiYan
Published: August 2024

Objective: To investigate the effects of dietary net energy (NE) content on the performance of growing pigs fed low-protein diets supplemented with crystalline amino acids. Materials and methods: A total of 144 barrows (22.96 ± 2.72 kg, Experiment One) or 360 barrows (27.80 ± 3.48 kg, Experiment Two) were assigned to six treatments. Diets in both experiments were based on corn and soybean meal, including an unsupplemented high-crude-protein (CP) diet (19.0% CP, 2.50 Mcal NE per kg) and five low-CP diets (4% lower CP) supplemented with lysine, methionine, threonine, and tryptophan. For Experiment One, five levels of NE (2.64, 2.58, 2.50, 2.42, and 2.36 Mcal per kg) were formulated in the low-protein diets. In Experiment Two, the low-protein diets contained 2.45, 2.40, 2.35, 2.30, and 2.25 Mcal NE per kg. Results: In Experiment One, for pigs on low-CP diets with different NE levels, ADG (P < .05) and gain:NE intake (kg per Mcal NE) increased linearly with decreasing NE levels (P < .01). In Experiment Two, for pigs on low-CP diets with different NE levels, there was a significant quadratic increase in ADG, gain:feed, and gain:NE intake as net energy levels increased from 2.25 to 2.35 Mcal NE per kg (P < .05). Implications: Feeding a low-CP, aminoacid-supplemented, corn-soybean-meal-based diet with a proper NE level maximizes the performance of growing pigs. Optimum performance will be obtained if the diet provides approximately 2.40 Mcal NE per kg.

Benih botani bawang merah dikenal sebagai True Shallot Seed (TSS), merupakan pengembangan baru untuk menjamin ketersediaan benih bawang merah dalam jangka panjang di Kepulauan Bangka Belitung. Selain mengkaji pengaruh vernalisasi dan giberelin (GA3) terhadap produksi TSS, penelitian ini juga bertujuan untuk mengembangkan prosedur operasi standar dasar produksi TSS bawang merah di Bangka Belitung. Penelitian ini dilakukan di Perkebunan milik Kelompok Tani Timur Makmur, Bangka Tengah. Penelitian ini menggunakan Rancangan Acak Kelompok dengan dua faktor, konsentrasi giberelin yaitu 0, 50, 100, atau 200 ppm, merupakan faktor pertama, diikuti oleh waktu vernalisasi sebagai faktor kedua yaitu 0, 2, 4 minggu dengan ulangan sebanyak 4 kali. Data diolah dengan menggunakan uji F dan uji lanjut DMRT pada taraf α = 5%. Analisis terhadap berbagai penggunaan giberelin dan perlakuan vernalisasi menunjukkan bahwa baik bawang merah varietas Bima Brebes maupun Biru Lancor tidak berpengaruh terhadap tinggi, jumlah daun, atau jumlah anakan. Pada kedua varietas bawang merah, pengaruh perlakuan giberelin dan vernalisasi terhadap umur pembungaan, jumlah bunga per umbel, dan jumlah biji TSS per umbel tidak berpengaruh. Perlakuan vernalisasi pada bawang merah varietas Bima Brebes dapat memperlama umur berbunga pada varietas Bima Brebes. Giberelin dan vernalisasi tidak mampu menciptakan pembungaan pada varietas bawang merah Biru Lancor.

Kedelai adalah tumbuhan hari pendek yang butuh pencahayaan 14-16 jam padahal negara Indonesia hanya memiliki pencahayaan 12 jam setiap hari. Penambahan penyinaran lampu LED diduga akan meningkatkan produktivitas kedelai namun akan menunda pembungaan dan jika ditambah pupuk organik tidak akan terjadi penundaan berbunga.  Tuuan penelitian ini adalah    untuk mempelajari interaksi kombinasi perlakuan penyinaran lampu LED dan bahan organik pada  pertumbuhan dan produktivitas kedelai. Penelitian dilakukan pada bulan Juni  – Desember 2023, di wilayah kerja BP4-VIII Prambanan, pada kelompok tani Ngudi Mulyo, Desa Sumberharjo, Kecamatan Prambanan, Kabupaten Sleman, DIY. Metode penelitian menggunakan RKLT Faktorial. Faktor pertama terdiri dari 3 taraf penyinaran (Tanpa penyinaran, Penyinaran sampai fase berbunga, Penyinaran sampai fase pengisian polong penuh). Faktor kedua 3 jenis bahan organik (Vermikompos; Biosaka; Pupuk Kandang Domba) yang diulang tiga kali.  Hasil percobaan menunjukkan bahwa tidak ada interaksi antara penyinaran lampu LED dan bahan organik pada seluruh parameter pengamatan. Penyinaran berbeda sangat nyata  terhadap pertumbuhan  tanaman kedelai (tinggi, berat basah, jumlah cabang, jumlah ruas, berat kering), dan peubah produksi kedelai (jumlah polong hampa, jumlah polong isi, bobot  biji, bobot 100 butir, dan produktivitas). Produktivitas bjii terbaik terjadi pada tanaman yang tidak diberi penyinaran.

In this study, ginger extract was used to impart a distinctive, popular flavor and functional properties (antioxidants) to coconut chips. Sucrose was added to the extract as an osmotic agent to facilitate the migration of antioxidant and flavor compounds from the ginger extract into the fresh coconut flesh during immersion. This study aimed to determine the effects of immersion in ginger extract with the addition of various concentrations of sucrose on the antioxidant, moisture, texture, and sensory characteristics of green coconut chips. The antioxidant activity was analyzed by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl scavenging assay. Instrumental texture analysis included Fmax, hardness, and deformation parameters. The results showed that higher concentrations of sucrose added to the ginger extract resulted in increasing antioxidant activity, Fmax, hardness, and panelist preference for color, taste, and overall, and decreasing moisture and deformation. Based on the antioxidant activity parameter, adding sucrose to ginger extract enhanced the effectiveness of immersion, thereby reducing the immersion duration to achieve greater antioxidant activity.
