Published: October 2022

The growth performance of albino rats fed graded levels of Piper umbellatum Linn leaf meal (PULM) was evaluated. Twenty individually-housed albino weanling rats were divided into four groups of five rats each and fed with three graded levels of PULM inclusion diets (10%, 15% and 20%) labeled groups T1, T2, and T3 respectively and T0 for control. Growth performance was monitored for 21 days. Growth performance revealed total reduction in body weight of rats on day 7 in all groups. Mean weights of rats non significantly increased in groups T1 and T2 and decreased in group T3 on days 14 and 21 while group T0 increased significantly (p≤0.05) on day 21 when compared with initial weights. Feed intake in all groups decreased significantly (p≤0.05) while feed conversion ratio (FCR) decreased significantly (p≤0.05) only in group T3 when compared with the control. Carcass weights (heart, liver and intestine) for groups T1-T3 and kidney for groups T2 and T3 significantly (p≤0.05) decreased when compared to control. The present study hence revealed that inclusion of Piper umbellatum Linn leaf meal in the rat’s diet had reduction effects on body weight, feed intake, feed conversion ratio (FCR) and carcass weights of the rats. Hence, PULM could serve as a novel food source for body weight management.
Causal Complexity of Perinatal and Late Neonatal Mortality in the Department of Cauca, Colombia from the Perspective of Systems Thinking
Authors: Murgueitio Darío Herrera , Maldonado Norman D. , Herrera M Julián A.
Published: October 2022

Description of Background: Causes of perinatal and neonatal death are complex due to the multiple groups of factors, including clinical (biomedical), demographic, social, economic, and even political factors, as well as the interactions among them. The specific combination and interaction of those factors faced by one individual makes it more or less likely to have access to healthcare; in particular, they condition the effectiveness of key interventions to prevent perinatal and neonatal death such as accurate prenatal care. A holistic analysis of this variables and factors and interactions among them for subnational areas that lag in infant mortality is necessary to identify entry points to accelerate progress on mortality reduction results. Methods: Systemic and dynamic thinking methodology was applied to construct a causal loops diagram through brainstorming process among experts and executors and adapted to the Department of Cauca in Colombia, following the techniques of Williams B and Sturmber JP. Results: Many more reinforcing loops were found than balancing loops, while specific regional barriers were identified, facilitating the location of points for effective preventive interventions in the dynamic system that would allow the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN-SDG,2030). The causal loops diagram and referrals were validated through surveys of a group of first- and second-line experts in maternal and childcare, who provided feedback. Conclusions: The causal loops diagram adapted to regional particularities improves the Colombian path of compliance with the United Nations sustainable development goals and equity at the departments and subregions level. Relevance: In the Colombian case, because the main barrier in the Cauca Department, as others in the country, is the diversity in perinatal and late neonatal deaths by subregions when the whole Department average is acceptable in relation with UN-ODS, 2030.
A Review of Current Management of Gestational Trophoblastic Disease
Authors: Mahendra I Nyoman Bayu , Brahmantara Bagus Ngurah , Setiawan William Alexander
Published: October 2022

A set of conditions connected to pregnancy and caused by trophoblast cells are known as gestational trophoblastic diseases. There are benign and malignant cancers, including invasive moles, choriocarcinomas, placental site trophoblastic tumors (PSTT), and epithelioid trophoblastic tumors (ETT). These cancers are classified as gestational trophoblastic neoplasms (GTN), which are less common but more serious. Most often, monitoring serum human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) with histological confirmation is used to diagnose GTN. As a differential diagnosis, certain tissue biomarkers have grown in popularity. This has produced more accurate results and various treatment regimens and prognoses for each GTN. The World Health Organization's prognostic score system and the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics anatomical staging system are the foundations for the treatment. Suppose the proper diagnosis is made and the instructions are followed. In that case, choriocarcinoma and invasive mole cases can be cured in 98 percent of instances, whereas PSTT and ETT still have only moderate success rates. The increased understanding of GTN and its characteristics enables medical professionals to rapidly make a differential diagnosis and select the appropriate treatment option, thus improving the overall survival of affected women. Nevertheless, epidemiological data collection and knowledge advancement through basic and translational research are crucial to address issues regarding GTN pathophysiology, their origins, and cellular behaviour.
Decay or interference accounts of forgetting: A replication of Waugh and Norman’s (1965) study

Published: October 2022

Forgetting − the loss of information − in short-term memory occurs either owing to interference with other information or decay over time. According to an influential study by Waugh and Norman (1965), retroactive interference causes forgetting. The current study attempted to reproduce this conclusion in a Bangladeshi culture with stronger statistical power. Thirty four undergraduate students were examined at two different stimulus presentation paces (slow/fast pace) with varying numbers of interfering digits. The presentation pace was used to index decay, and the number of interfering items was used to index interference. The findings of a direct replication effort revealed that recall performance decreased with increasing interfering items, although the pattern of decreased performance did not reflect the original study. Furthermore, the slow pace condition yielded better outcomes than the fast pace compared to decay account. The findings pave the way for reconsidering how retroactive interference influences mental practice effects.
Bee richness and abundance in small fruit farms from semiarid landscape, NE, Brazil

Published: October 2022

Bee diversity and current status of native populations is barely known in cropland from semiarid Sergipe, where fruit production is a growing activity among small farmers. Psidium guajava L. (Myrtaceae) is spread among small growers in Canindé de São Francisco and Poço Redondo in Sergipe state, Northeastern Brazil, in semiarid Caatinga, causing landscape change and habitat loss. Available evidences support that cross-pollination provided by bees may increase seed set and fruit production, despite self-pollination. We aimed to access bee richness and abundance within Guava orchard and identify landscape parameters important to these patterns. Survey was conducted in ten Guava orchards during the flowering period (n=10) from May to December 2017. Nine bee species were recorded and the high density and generalist bees Trigona spinipes and Apis mellifera comprised 92% of the flower visitors. No other social native bees were found, and solitary bees were scarce. No significant influence of landscape structure was found for bee richness, while bee abundance was affected by environmental diversity, isolation, and distance to caatinga patches and continuous vegetation reserves. Landscape simplification threatened bee diversity and pollination services. These results highlight the importance of providing bee habitat within farmlands, rearing stingless bees and restoring natural habitats along streams to increase wild bee populations within crops.
