Worldwide, the incidence of traumatic brain injury in geriatrics is 7–34%, with falls as the most common cause. Subdural hemorrhage is the most common injury that occur and is associated with the aging process of the brain, making geriatric patients prone developing subdural hemorrhage. A 72-years-old female came with a headache after fell to the ground 6 days before hospital admission. Physical examination revealed E3M5V6 without neurologic deficits and hemodynamically stable. A computed tomography scan resulted in subdural hematoma in right frontotemporoparietal region causing midline shifting to the left, subarachnoid hemorrhage in the left frontal region, intracerebral hemorrhage in the left temporal lobe. The patient underwent craniotomy evacuation of hematoma and lasted for 3 hours under general anesthesia. Anesthetic concerns are neuroanesthesia and geriatric patient considering the aging process affects physiologic and pharmacologic changes, comorbidities and polypharmacy. Comprehensive perioperative management is essential to prevent secondary brain injury and improve the outcome.

Background and Objective: Opioid free anesthesia is a new discussion in the world of anesthesia. The available evidence suggests that opioids also have unintended effects. Dexmedetomidine is a selective 2-adrenergic receptor (α2-AR) agonist drug, that this drug has an opioid-sparing effect, and a faster recovery rate after anesthesia. To compare the effectiveness of dexmedetomidine and fentanyl on the depth of anesthesia and post-anesthesia recovery in supratentorial neurosurgery operations. Subject and Methods: A total of 40 research samples was divided into 2 groups, namely group A (Dexmedetomidine) and group B (Fentanyl). The number of research samples in each group was 20 people. Both groups of patients will be fitted with a bispectral index (BIS) during surgery. Both groups will measure the post-anesthesia recovery time since the anesthetic drug was discontinued Results: Based on statistical tests, it was found that the use of dexmedetomidine and fentanyl had an optimal anesthetic effect, where there was no significant difference between these two anesthetic agents in achieving optimal anesthetic levels based on the BIS Index. From statistical analysis was found that post-anesthesia recovery time on dexmedetomidine was faster than the administration of fentanyl, with a difference of 5.10 minutes (p<0.05) with statistically significant difference in the speed of post-anesthesia recovery between the use of dexmedetomidine and fentanyl. Conclusion: The use of dexmedetomidine in supratentorial neurosurgical surgery anesthesia has a faster post- anesthesia recovery time than the use of fentanyl.

OBJECTIVE

To evaluate the duration and analgesic quality of bupivacaine mixed with dexmedetomidine (BUP-DEX) or bupivacaine liposome suspension (BLS) administered as a transverse abdominis plane (TAP) block, compared with a negative control (no TAP block; CTRL) in dogs.

ANIMALS

26 mixed-breed shelter dogs undergoing elective ovariohysterectomy between January 28 and December 8, 2020.

PROCEDURES

Each dog was randomly assigned to receive either an ultrasound-guided TAP block with either BUP-DEX or BLS or to receive no TAP block at time 0 after induction of general anesthesia. Superficial and abdominal wall pain scores were evaluated before time 0 and at 4, 6, 12, 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours later. Additionally, sedation scores and time to return of various behaviors, such as eating or drinking, were compared.

RESULTS

The CTRL group had significantly greater pain scores than the BUP-DEX and BLS groups, but no differences were found between the BUP-DEX and BLS groups. Postoperatively, significantly more dogs needed rescue analgesia and the time to need it was shorter for the CTRL group, compared with the BUP-DEX or BLS groups. Additionally, the CTRL group had greater sedation scores than the other 2 groups. No significant differences were observed in any of the evaluated outcome variables such as eating or drinking.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

A TAP block appeared to provide adequate postoperative analgesia for abdominal surgery in the dogs of the present study undergoing elective ovariohysterectomy. The BLS TAP block did not appear to provide any extra benefit beyond what BUP-DEX TAP block added under these specific conditions.

Objective: Allergic asthma is the most frequently observed subtype of individuals with asthma. The effects of serotonin plays in the pathophysiology of asthma has not been clearly determined. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the association between the 5HTR2C gene rs 6318 G>C polymorphism and allergic asthma in pediatric patients in Cyprus.

Methods: This study included total number of 177 individuals with 118 control and 59 pediatric patients (43 atopic and 16 non-atopic asthma patient). A skin prick test was performed for each patient to confirm asthma diagnosis and to evaluate atopic status. Genotyping for the 5HTR2C was completed by Real Time-PCR analysis.

Results: The genotype distribution frequencies were not in agreement with the Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium in the patients’ group (p<0.00001). The frequency of the risk allele (allele C) was not significantly different between the patient and control groups (p=0.255). The genotypic distribution between atopic asthma and non-atopic asthma within the patientsts groups was not in agreement with the Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium (p=0.006). However, risk allele presence showed a statistically significant association with atopy-related asthma (p=0.037).

Discussion & Conclusion: Overall, despite the finding of no association between the 5HTR2C rs6318 C allele and childhood asthma, the current results indicated that there is a strong association between the 5HTR2C rs6318 C variant and childhood atopic asthma.

Published: July 2022

Introduction: Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is defined by the PML-RARA fusion gene. APL treatment can have significant side effects, therefore the development of optimal therapeutic options is crucial. Although the study of miRNAs is still in its infancy, it has been shown that these molecules are involved in the pathogenesis of neoplasms by modulating the expression of target genes. miRNAs can be considered possible biomarkers in APL and can be used as therapeutic targets or as markers for the therapeutic response.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine whether differentially expressed putative miRNAs that have RARA as a target gene could be considered reliable biomarkers for APL.

Methods: Using bioinformatics tools, a panel of 6 miRNAs with possible tropism for the RARA gene was selected from miRDB. We evaluated their expression levels in samples from patients with APL (n=20) or from healthy subjects without mutations in genes associated with leukemia or myeloproliferative diseases (n=21).

Results: All 6 putative miRNAs were identified using electrophoresis (hsamir-4299, hsa-mir-4328, hsa-mir-7851-3p, hsa-mir-6827-5p, hsa-mir-6867-5p, hsa-mir-939-5p). Of the six miRNAs, hsa-mir-4328 is deeply downregulated in subjects diagnosed with APL compared to healthy subjects, whereas hsa-mir-4299 and hsa-mir-7851-3p show small differences in expression between the two study groups, but without statistical significance. Our results suggest that hsa-mir-4328 may have a role in the pathogenesis of APL and may represent a new biomarker for this type of leukemia. Key Words: miRNA, APL, leukemia, bioinformatics.

Septic arthritis is a rare condition in children, especially in neonates. Early recognition and proper treatment are required to avoid serious complications. We present the case of a male newborn diagnosed with septic arthritis of the right elbow who was treated with repeated joint aspiration and i.v. antibiotics (Amikacin and Meropenem). Blood culture and joint cultures were positive for Klebsiella pneumoniae. The final outcome was good, with no apparent local or systemic complications. General considerations regarding this rare condition, etiology and treatment options are also included in the paper.
Normality assessment, few paradigms and use cases
Authors: Avram Călin , Mărușteri Marius
Published: July 2022

Background: The importance of applying the normality tests is underlined by the way of continuing the statistical protocol for numerical data within inferential statistics, respectively by the parametric or non-parametric tests that we will apply further on.

Methods: To check the calculation mode, we used sets of random values and we performed the normality assessment using statistical calculation programs. We took non-Gaussian data (n = 30, n = 50, n = 100, n = 500) and Gaussian data (n = 30, n = 50, n = 100, n = 500) for which we checked the normality of the data. Data chosen for this study were most representative for each batch (n).

Results: The application of normality tests to the data under study confirms that the data are non-Gaussian for the first data set. For the Gaussian data sample, the verification of normality is confirmed by the results.

Conclusion: For data up to 50 subjects, it is recommended to apply the Shapiro-Wilk test, but also to apply graphical methods to confirm the accuracy of the result. If the data samples have more than 50 values, the D’Agostino & Pearson omnibus normality test should be applied and if the statistical program does not contain this test, the Shapiro-Wilk test can be applied (in the case of SPSS). Graphical methods, although they require some experience, are useful for identifying the normality of distributions with a small number of data.
Research on the Optimization of Landscape Design Talent Training Mode Under the Background of Rural Revitalization Strategy
Authors: Zhang Jing , Gu Li
Published: July 2022

Objective: The rural revitalization strategy is an important strategic task for China to build a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way and realize socialist modernization. With the proposal and implementation of the "village revitalization" strategy, there are problems in the talent training model, such as lack of professional theoretical foundation, lack of practical experience, lack of talent support, and shortage of talents. Talents are the key to implementing the strategy of rural revitalization. In the field of landscape design, the existing education model is difficult to effectively train high-quality rural landscape design professionals, and the education model of talent supply is also difficult to meet the needs of rural talents.
 
Method: This paper adopts the methods of literature research, investigation, case analysis and practical research. By consulting related papers and books on the Internet, this paper collects and sorts out the related information of rural landscape design specialty and talent training mode and analyzes the related theoretical background of the research object.
 
Results and conclusion: The students are not very clear about the professional goals of landscape architecture, nor do they have a good understanding of rural revitalization strategies. Teachers have a large proportion of traditional teaching and lack practical experience. However, teaching methods are gradually diversified. Teachers need to improve the depth and broad extension of rural landscape design-related knowledge points and re-examine the curriculum and professional training goals and positioning. At the level of curriculum setting, the combination of theoretical and practical courses has been initially realized.
 
Originality/value: This study elaborates the key points of the rural revitalization strategy, starting from the analysis of the demands of the rural revitalization for the landscape design specialty, discussing the path of training new talent, and providing reference for the higher vocational education to serve the rural revitalization.
Single-industry town: Assessing the activity of town-forming enterprise
Authors: AKINFEEVA Ekaterina V. , NIKONOVA Mariya A.
Published: July 2022

Subject. The article considers performance indicators of a city–forming enterprise (absolute indicators, like revenue, cost of sales, net profit; relative indicators, like coefficients of autonomy, current liquidity, return on sales, assets, equity) and the level of socio-economic development of a single-industry town (demographic indicators, housing and communal services, investment activity).
Objectives. The purpose is to analyze and evaluate the activities of a city-forming enterprise, its production and technological linkages and their impact on socio-economic development of the entire monotown. The paper considers the cases of Kamensk-Uralsky and Polevskoy monotowns and their town-forming enterprises.
Methods. We employ methods of theoretical, statistical, financial and economic analysis.
Results. We assessed the indicators of the monotowns’ socio-economic condition. In both cases, on the one hand, there are negative trends in population decline, the investment policy is underdeveloped. On the other hand, the construction of housing stock is expanding. There are production and technological linkages between the major employers of the monotowns under study. However, both of them are characterized by low efficiency of production and economic activity.
Conclusions. The interaction of town-forming enterprises along production and technological chains, affiliation with larger institutional entities, like strategic unions, associations, corporations, etc., do not guarantee effective development of either the town-forming enterprise or the single-industry town as a whole. A better targeted support from municipal, regional, and federal government agencies, and attracting private investment are required.

Perspectivas multidimensionales de género
Authors: Alves Carlos
Published: July 2022

El género como categoría analítica proporciona perspectivas nuevas a la investigación social y permite separar la violencia de género de otros tipos de violencia, algo que posibilita la identificación de motivaciones específicas a ese tipo de violencia. El presente artículo busca investigar las cuestiones de género bajo la perspectiva de la antropología compleja de Edgar Morin. A partir de una revisión bibliográfica se conduce el análisis acerca de la génesis de la violencia de género con la intención de investigar cómo el género se construye a partir de relaciones complejas multidimensionales y evidenciar a la necesidad de cuestionar a los paradigmas sociales y científicos siempre a partir de una perspectiva también multidimensional. El análisis del artículo soporta la conclusión de que el pensamiento complejo ofrece aporte teórico que puede expandir las investigaciones acerca de las teorías de género.

The challenges of autism spectrum disorder: from suspicion to diagnosis
Authors: Siqueira Bianca , Prazeres Áurea , Maia Allyssandra
Published: July 2022

Autistic spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder whose diagnosis requires trained and informed professionals to perform it properly. Knowing that the prognosis of children with the disorder is directly related to early diagnosis, this study aimed to verify the inclusion of the active search for signs of risk for autism in routine pediatric consultations. The target audience of the study was formed by parents or guardians of children already diagnosed with ASD, and the analysis took place through a questionnaire applied to the parents, as well as interviews with them. The data in this study showed that in 62.5% of cases, parents were the first to identify early signs of ASD, and in only 3.5%, pediatricians identified them. The average age of the children at the time the warning signs were perceived was 24.5 months, with two years of age in 53.5% of cases. Was also found that 42.8% of parents had their complaints not valued by pediatricians, and that in 78.5% of children, delayed speech was the early sign that first caught the attention of parents. Other early signs such as not answering by name were present in 51.8% of children, and also, 51.8% had repetitive movements. It was concluded that there is still a lack of information about autism both at a professional and social level, since most families had never heard of autism and that prejudice is still a difficulty related in the disorder.
Timber industry activity of the GULAG correctional labor camps of the OGPU-NKVD of the USSR in the late 1920s - 1937
Authors: Zykin Ivan
Published: July 2022

The article examines the activity of correctional labor camps specializing in timber industry in the Soviet Union in the period from the late 1920s to 1937, singled out as the first stage of development of this group of camp complexes. The definition of the concept of "forest" correctional labor camps is given. For the first time, an analysis of the timber industry activity of the camps was undertaken. "Forest" camps functioned in the areas of the largest Soviet cities (Moscow and Leningrad), in the European North, the Urals and Siberia. Their main function was reduced to the development of woodlands, timber harvesting, mechanical processing of forest resources developed to a lesser extent.    Conclusions are drawn about the gradual expansion of the scale of the timber industry activity of correctional labor camps in the period from the late 1920s to 1937. However, at this stage, the volumes of harvesting and mechanical processing of wood by "forest" camps were insignificant against the background of the development of the forest industry in the country. The first multi–industry "forest" camp appeared - the White Sea-Baltic Combine, which had a strong influence on the development of the timber industry in the autonomous Karelian Republic. With the help of prisoners' labor, the construction of a pulp and paper enterprise in the Urals was carried out. The experience of using prisoners in the timber industry in the period from the late 1920s to 1937 was a significant groundwork for further enhancing the role of the Main Directorate of Camps of the NKVD of the USSR in the industry.

The descriptive survey method that employed inferential statistics with a self-constructed questionnaire as the data gathering instrument with a reliability coefficient of 0.83. Total enumeration was used with 351 respondents. The findings revealed that the majority are females, they are in their first year, pursuing a degree in secondary education, lived in rural areas, and belonged to low-income families. Most of them were using smartphones, prepaid cards for their internet subscription which they sometimes experienced high-frequency signals, and were very proficient in their basic computer literacy. Along with cognition, students often experienced difficulties focusing their minds. The main problems in affective were feelings of isolation and lack of interaction. The psychomotor attitudes arise from the elimination of the actual practice. The income of parents and the location of the residence are factors in online resources. The variables in the online resources can affect their attitudes toward learning.

Published: July 2022

Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are used in diverse scientific and engineering fields such as drug discovery, materials design, separations, biological systems, and reaction engineering. These simulations generate highly complex datasets that capture the 3D spatial positions, dynamics, and interactions of thousands of molecules. Analyzing MD datasets is key for understanding and predicting emergent phenomena and in identifying key drivers and tuning design knobs of such phenomena. In this work, we show that the Euler characteristic (EC) provides an effective topological descriptor that facilitates MD analysis. The EC is a versatile, low-dimensional, and easy-to-interpret descriptor that can be used to reduce, analyze, and quantify complex data objects that are represented as graphs/networks, manifolds/functions, and point clouds. Specifically, we show that the EC is an informative descriptor that can be used for machine learning and data analysis tasks such as classification, visualization, and regression. We demonstrate the benefits of the proposed approach through case studies that aim to understand and predict the hydrophobicity of self-assembled monolayers and the reactivity of complex solvent environments.

Combinatorial post-translational modifications (PTMs) of proteins, such as histones, govern cell differentiation and organismal development, and are widely thought to play a key role in aging, development of cancers, neurodevelopmental disorders, neurodegenerative and other diseases. Nonetheless, current understanding of the precise biological function of different modification patterns is limited by the difficulty of mass spectrometry to identify and quantify different combinatorial isomers in their mixtures as they naturally occur. This profound difficulty is a result of the fundamental incompleteness of the information contained in a one-dimensional mass spectrum featuring the mass-to-charge ratios and relative abundances of the individual peptide fragments. Here we demonstrate that the fragment-fragment correlations revealed by the recently developed two-dimensional partial covariance mass spectrometry (2D-PC-MS) allow one to solve the combinatorial PTM puzzles that cannot be tackled by the standard mass spectrometry as a matter of principle. We introduce the concept of 2D-PC-MS marker ion correlations and show that they can provide the missing PTM location information that enables identification of co-fragmentated combinatorially modified isomers in their mixtures. We demonstrate experimentally the use of the marker ion correlations to fully analyze and resolve mixtures of doubly acetylated histone H4 peptides, a problem that was previously branded “mathematically impossible”. Our accompanying comprehensive in silico study reveals that the marker ion correlations can be used to unambiguously identify five times more combinatorially modified tryptic peptides and three times more combinatorially modified Glu-C peptides of human histones than is possible using the standard MS/MS.

Fourteen boronated cyanometallates ([M(CN-BR3)6]3/4/5– (M = Cr, Mn, Fe, Ru, Os, R = BPh3, B(2,4,6,-F3C6H2)3, B(C6F5)3) have been characterized by X-ray crystallography and spectroscopy [UV-vis-NIR, NMR, IR, spectroelectrochemistry, and magnetic circular dichroism (MCD)]; CASSCF+NEVPT2 methods were employed in calculations of electronic structures. For (t2g)5 electronic configurations, the lowest energy ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) absorptions and MCD C terms in the spectra of boronated species have been assigned to transitions from cyanide σ+π + B-C borane σ orbitals. CASSCF+NEVPT2 calculations including t1u and t2u orbitals reproduced t1u/t2u → t2g excitation energies. All ([M(CN-BR3)6]3/4− complexes exhibited highly electrochemically reversible redox couples. Notably, the formal potentials of all five [M(CN-B(C6F5)3)6]3− anions scale with LMCT energies; and Mn(I) and Cr(II) compounds, (K(18-crown-6))5[Mn(CN-B(C6F5)3)6] and (TBA)4[Cr(CN-B(C6F5)3)6], are surprisingly stable. Continuous wave and pulsed electron paramagnetic resonance (hyperfine sublevel correlation) spectra were collected for all Cr(III) complexes; as expected, 14N hyperfine splittings are greater for (TBA)3[Cr(NC-BPh3)6] than for (TBA)3[Cr(CN-BPh3)6]. Using (TBA)4[Fe(CN-B(C6F5)3)6] and (TBA)3[Fe(CN)6], a model flow battery was constructed and found to have an 80% energy effi-ciency.

In this work, new nanostructured copper materials have been designed, synthetized and evaluated in order to produce a more efficient and sustainable copper bionanohybrid with catalytical and antimicrobial properties. Thus, conditions are sought where the most critical steps are reduced or minimized, such as the use of reducing agents or the cryogenization step. In addition, the new materials have been characterized through different techniques and their oxidative and reductive capacity has been evaluated, as well as their antimicrobial activity. We demonstrate that the addition of different quantities of reducing agent in the synthesis method generates copper bionanohybrids with different metallic species, nanoparticles sizes and morphologies (spherical, nanorod, nanowires structures) , and antimicrobial activity. The antimicrobial properties of the bionanohybrids were studied against two different strain of bacteria, Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis, through two different methods: by counting the CFU and via disk diffusion test, respectively. In both cases, Cu-PHOS-100%R, with the highest percentage of reducing agent, was the most efficient, achieving a MIC value against B. subtilis of 125 µg/mL and an E. coli percentage reduction of 95% in 4h. Notable results were also obtained with the bionanohybrids with lowest reduction percentages, such as Cu-PHOS-10%R, which showed a MIC of 250 µg/mL and a bacteria reduction of 82%.

Atomically thin, few-layered membranes of oxides show unique physical and chemical properties compared to their bulk forms. We have exfoliated manganese oxide (Mn3O4) membranes from naturally occurring Hausmannite and used them to make flexible, high-performance nanogenerators. We observe an enhanced power density in the membrane nanogenerators (NG) with the best-performing device showing a power density of 7.20 µW cm-2 compared to 1.04 µW cm-2 obtained from NG made up of bulk Mn3O4. We also observe a sensitivity of 108 mV/kPa for applied forces < 10 N in the membrane NGs. We attribute the improved performance to enhanced flexoelectric response in few-layers Mn3O4. Using first-principles calculations, we calculate the flexoelectric coefficients of monolayer and bilayer Mn3O4, and find them to be 50 – 100 times larger than two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides. We also show the presence of a destructive interference between the bending and shear modes in bulk Mn3O4 that almost cancel the overall flexoelectric coefficients. Dimensional reduction in the Mn3O4 suppresses the response to the shear modes and results in large flexoelectric coefficients. As a proof-of-concept, we made flexible triboelectric nanogenerators (TENG) using exfoliated Mn3O4 membranes and used them in self-powered devices such as paper based TENG. This research paves the way for exploration of few-layer membranes of other centrosymmetric oxides for application as energy harvesters.

Selective photooxidation of aromatic alcohols to corresponding aldehydes is a widely used model reaction for evaluation of performance of heterogeneous photocatalysts. A chief example is the photocatalytic production of hydrogen peroxide via reduction of dioxygen with concomitant photooxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde. Although it has long been known that photoexcitation of benzaldehyde under UV light yields reactive benzaldehyde radicals capable of oxidizing substrates such as benzyl alcohol, it was assumed that such autocatalytic processes cannot be initiated under visible light irradiation. Herein we demonstrate the ability of benzaldehyde to promote auto-photocatalytic oxidation of benzyl alcohol and produce large quantities of H2O2 in solvent-free (no water) or biphasic (with water) systems even under nominally solar-simulated visible light (>420 nm cutoff filter) irradiation. While these results open up broader prospects for the use of benzaldehyde in visible light-driven photocatalysis as exemplified by the ability of benzaldehyde to photocatalyze H2O2 production even in the presence of alternative electron donors (e.g., ethanol), they also shed some critical light on the plethora of research reports on photocatalytic H2O2 production in which benzyl alcohol was employed as electron donor. Since the autocatalytic pathway based on the photocatalytic activity of benzaldehyde formed during photocatalysis under such conditions cannot be neglected, the interpretations of photocatalytic performance are likely contentious and distorted in such reports. We conclude that the use of benzyl alcohol as a model electron donor in photocatalytic studies should be definitely discouraged, and highlight the importance of carrying out simple check protocols for excluding similar issues when using alternative substrates.
