The impact of depression on surgical outcome in Chiari malformation type I: an assessment based on the Chicago Chiari Outcome Scale
Authors: Feghali James , Chen Yuxi , Xie Yangyiran , Chen Christopher , Huang Judy
Published: April 2020

OBJECTIVE

The effect of depression on outcomes in Chiari malformation type I (CM-1) is unclear. The authors sought to determine whether depression affects outcome in a surgical cohort of CM-1 patients by using a validated outcome assessment tool, the Chicago Chiari Outcome Scale (CCOS).

METHODS

The authors performed a retrospective analysis of a prospectively maintained database of 149 adult CM-1 patients undergoing suboccipital decompression with duraplasty and cranioplasty. Baseline presentation characteristics and composite as well as subcomponent CCOS scores at last follow-up were compared between depressed and nondepressed patients. Outcome comparisons included both a univariable analysis and a logistic regression model adjusting for several covariates.

RESULTS

The prevalence of depression in the study cohort was 28% (41/149). Baseline demographic and imaging characteristics were similar between the 2 patient groups. Dizziness (p = 0.019) and imbalance (p = 0.015) were significantly more common among depressed patients, but clinical symptoms and severity were otherwise comparable. On univariable analysis, depressed patients were significantly less likely to experience improvement in pain symptoms (OR 0.14, 95% CI 0.03–0.61, p = 0.003) and functionality (OR 0.17, 95% CI 0.03–0.99, p = 0.049). No significant difference was identified in complications, nonpain symptom improvement, or overall composite CCOS improvement. Similar results were obtained on multivariable analysis controlling for several covariates.

CONCLUSIONS

Depression is independently associated with poor surgical outcome in adult CM-1 patients, namely when evaluating improvement in pain symptoms and functionality. Optimizing the management of depression preoperatively and ensuring follow-up for psychiatric comorbidity in the postoperative period may possibly lead to improved outcomes.

Authors: Suwarlan Stivani Ayuning
Published: April 2020

Abstract: Settlement patterns in an area can change due to population growth and activity from year to year, thereby increasing the need for housing. The increased need for housing has caused local residents to build buildings without regard to initial land boundaries / initial house plots, so that building compaction occurs. As a result of building compaction can change the pattern of settlements and even create new patterns of settlement in the area. Knowing changes in patterns and the existence of new patterns is very necessary, especially for local governments as material for study in making regulations / policies. This case occurred in Surabaya Peneleh Village, which used to have settlements on the riverbank transformed into an area that had an elongated pattern following the street network and clustered pattern due to compaction of buildings.Keywords: settlement, settlement patterns, building compactionAbstrak: Pola permukiman pada suatu wilayah dapat mengalami perubahan yang disebabkan oleh pertumbuhan dan aktivitas penduduk dari tahun ke tahun sehingga meningkatkan kebutuhan rumah tinggal. Kebutuhan rumah yang meningkat ini menyebabkan penduduk setempat mendirikan bangunan tanpa memperhatikan batas lahan/ kavling awal, sehingga terjadilah pemadatan bangunan. Hasil dari pemadatan bangunan ini dapat merubah pola permukiman bahkan menciptakan pola permukiman baru pada wilayah tersebut. Diketahuinya perubahan pola dan keberadaan pola baru sangat diperlukan terutama bagi pemerintah setempat sebagai bahan kajian dalam pembuatan peraturan/ kebijakan. Hal ini terjadi pada Kampung Peneleh Surabaya yang awalnya hanya memiliki permukiman di pinggiran sungai bertransformasi menjadi wilayah yang memiliki pola permukiman memanjang mengikuti jaringan jalan dan pola mengelompok akibat pemadatan bangunan.Kata Kunci: permukiman, pola permukiman, pemadatan bangunan

Vector analysis of the kinematic characteristics of two-joint cardan shaft
Authors: Kotov A. V
Published: April 2020

Using the example of a two-joint cardan shaft, a method is presented for analytically describing its kinematic characteristics based on the use of vector analysis, which the author has been successfully using for a long time in designing various lever mechanisms. The proposed vector analysis method is based on the spatial coordinate transformation method. In this method, to get a vector rotated in space, you must specify the source vector, the vector around which the rotation will be performed, the angle of rotation itself and if a new vector length is required. In the proposed vector analysis method for describing the kinematics of a two-joint cardan shaft, the coordinates of the points of the axes of the cardan shafts and the radius of the cross are the basic geometric data. The adequacy of the results of kinematic analysis by the vector method was tested in two ways. In the first case, the values obtained by the vector method for the coordinates of all the characteristic points of the two-joint cardan shaft were compared with the corresponding coordinates of the characteristic points of the identical parametric model built in the three-dimensional CAD package. In the second case, the angular velocities and accelerations of the shafts of the two-joint cardan shaft obtained by the vector method were compared with the analytical dependencies given in the well-known literature sources. As a result of all the checks, it was concluded that the proposed method of vector analysis of two-joint cardan shaft is absolutely adequate. The developed method of vector analysis of the kinematic characteristics of two-joint cardan shaft can be further used to find the vector-loads (forces and moments) acting in the cardan transmission elements in order to conduct subsequent strength calculations. The proposed vector analysis method of two-joint cardan shaft is universal and can be successfully applied to describe the kinematics not only of two-joint cardan shaft, but also for polycardan transmission of any complexity.
Electrical impedance segmentography: A promising tool for respiratory monitoring?
Authors: Reiterer Friedrich , Auinger Julia , Urlesberger Bernd
Published: April 2020

BACKGROUND: Non-invasive, radiation free bedside monitoring methods have gained increased popularity in the respiratory field. The aim of our study was to report the experience with electrical impedance segmentography (EIS), a rather new technique, which allows continuous visual and quantitative monitoring of regional lung ventilation. METHODS: Prospective, pilot trial in spontaneously breathing, healthy, non-sedated term neonates between 24 and 72 hours post-delivery using a commercially available EIS-device. Systematic review of the literature. RESULTS: A total of 12 neonates were eligible for complete data analysis in our study. EIS was found to be a safe and easy to perform method. The median duration of the study time was 25 minutes (16–40). Individual total and regional impedance values, given in arbitrary units and it's percentage of distribution in the upper and lower right and left lung segments (UR, UL, LR, LL), were variable (median total impedance 207 arbitrary units (AU), UR% 17, LR 27%,UL 28%, LL 23%). A number of influencing factors such as body movements, sucking, jawing, and electrode issues have to be considered for correct data interpretation. The literature search revealed two small experimental studies in neonatal piglets and two human studies (one study in preschool children with bronchopulmonary dysplasia and one case report in a neonate with respiratory distress). CONCLUSIONS: EIS is an innovative technique and a potentially useful tool in studying regional lung ventilation in research and clinical care.
Genes predisposing to neonatal diabetes mellitus and pathophysiology: Current findings
Authors: Yahaya T.O. , Anyebe D.A.
Published: April 2020

BACKGROUND: Precision medicine, described as a therapeutic procedure in which complex diseases are treated based on the causal gene and pathophysiology, is being considered for diabetes mellitus (DM). To this end, several monogenetic mutations in the beta cells have been linked with neonatal diabetes mellitus (NDM), however, the list of suspect genes is expansive, necessitating an update. This study, therefore, provides an update on NDM candidate genes and pathophysiology. RESULTS: Reputable online academic databases were searched for relevant information, which led to the identification of 43 genes whose mutations are linked to the condition. Of the linked genes, mutations in the KCNJ11, ABCC8, and INS genes as well as the genes on 6q24 chromosomal region are the most frequently implicated. Mutations in these genes can cause pancreatic agenesis and developmental errors, resulting in NDM in the first six to twelve months of birth. The clinical presentations of NDM include frequent urination, rapid breathing, and dehydration, among others. CONCLUSIONS: Monogenetic mutations in the beta cells may cause NDM with distinct pathophysiology from other DM. Treatment options that target NDM candidate genes and pathophysiology may lead to an improved treatment compared with the present generalized treatment for all forms of DM.
APPLICABILITY OF ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORK MODEL FOR SIMULATION OF MONTHLY RUNOFF IN COMPARISON WITH SOM OTHER TRADITIONAL MODELS
Authors: Le Duc Van
Published: April 2020

Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model along with Back Propagation Algorithm (BPA) has been applied in many fields, especially in hydrology and water resources management to simulate or forecast rainfall runoff process, discharge and water level - time series, and other hydrological variables. Several researches have recently been focusing to compare the applicability of ANN model with other theory-driven and data-driven approaches. The comparison of ANN with M5 model trees for rainfall-runoff forecasting, with ARMAX models for deriving flow series, with AR models and regression models for forecasting and estimating daily river flows have been carried out. The better results that were implemented by ANN model have been concluded. So, this research trend is continued for the comparison of ANN model with Tank, Harmonic, Thomas and Fiering models in simulation of the monthly runoffs at Dong Nai river basin, Viet Nam. The results proved ANN being the best choice among these models, if suitable and enough data sources were available.

Dynamic mechanical properties of epoxy resin matrix reinforced with sugarcane bagasse
Authors: ABDULLAHİ Mustapha
Published: April 2020

The dynamic mechanical analysis was performed on five different formulations of a reinforced epoxy resin matrix with sugarcane bagasse (SCB) using hand lay-up technique. The viscoelastic behaviours of the composites were studied by analyzing the thermal parameters such as storage modulus E'(MPa), loss modulus E''(MPa), and tan⁡δ as the temperature increases at periodic stress frequencies of 2.5, 5, and 10 Hz using Dynamic Mechanical Analyzer (DMA). The results revealed that E'(MPa) and E''(MPa) decreased with increasing temperature for all composites, while the tan⁡δ increased with increasing temperatures. As the frequency of oscillation is increased, the viscoelastic parameters was seen to increase as well. However, the tan⁡δ (damping coefficient) was found to decrease with increase in SCB fibre loading due to the good load-bearing capacity of the composites. The tan⁡δ peak temperature of the composites was found to be higher than the onset temperature of E'(MPa) and peak temperature of E"(MPa) which depict higher accuracy. Futhermore, it was seen that the increase in SCB fibre content in the epoxy resin increased the glass transition temperature (Tg).
Pathoanatomical and pathogistological changes in organs and tissues of indian peafowl (Pavo cristatus) during histomonosis
Authors: Shchebentovska O. , Holubtsova M.
Published: April 2020

Histomonosis is a fairly common disease in poultry – turkeys, laying hens, guineafowls, geese, ducks. Spontaneous cases of histomonosis in Indian peafowls do not occur very often, thus they feature less frequently in the scientific literature. Among possible reasons for this to happen is that they are kept in zoos or at private farms, where their death is mainly attributed to complications caused by E. coli or Clostridium microorganisms. The article demonstrates pathoanatomical and pathohistological changes in the organs of Indian peafowls during spontaneous histomonosis characterized by liver and caecum lesions alongside developed multifocal necrotic hepatitis and diphtheria typhlitis. Clinical signs of the disease in Indian peafowls manifested with gradual feed refusal, the bird was becoming depressed and hiding its head under the wing. The first death of a female Indian peafowl was recorded 10–14 days after the onset of such clinical signs. During histological examination, massive necrotic lesions were detected in the liver and in places of intensive development of histomonas. Cell infiltration consisting of pseudo-eosinophils, lymphoid and histiocytic cells was formed around these lesions. The penetration of histomonas into the mucous membrane of the caecum caused proliferative processes by cellular elements, which was also accompanied by heterophilic-leukocyte infiltration and the formation of cell granulomas in places where histomonas were located.

Authors: Panja Palash , Asai Pranay , Velasco Raul , Deo Milind
Published: April 2020

Regression of experimental or simulated data has important implications in sensitivity studies, uncertainty analysis, and prediction accuracy. The fitness of a model is highly dependent on the number of data points and the locations of the chosen points on the curve. The objective of the research is to find the best scheme for a nonlinear regression model using a fraction of total data points without losing any features or trends in the data. Six different schemes are developed by setting criteria such as equal spacing along axes, equal distance between two consecutive points, constraint in the angle of curvature, etc. A workflow is provided to summarize the entire protocol of data preprocessing, training and testing nonlinear regression models with various schemes using a simulated temperature profile from an enhanced geothermal system. It is shown that only 5% of data points are sufficient to represent the entire curve using a regression model with a proper scheme.

Published: April 2020

The population study of threatened species requires marking techniques that do not affect the survival of individuals. In this study, we evaluated the effectiveness of visible implant elastomer (VIE) in the identification and survival of individuals of the salamander Parvimolge townsendi. We compared three salamander groups under different treatments: intervened,
simulated intervention and control. No significant mortality differences were observed between groups (with two, none, and one individual, respectively), but implant migration was observe in four of 10 intervened individuals. Although VIE does not have a significant effect on survival, implant migration should be considered before use in population studies.

Published: April 2020

This work investigates the well known localization problem of energy and momentum. The purpose of this paper is two fold. First, we compute Einstein, Landau-Lifshitz and Bergmann's energy-momentum complexes for static spherically symmetric magnetically charged regular black hole spacetime in general relativity. We observe strong coincidences among the results obtained form the three descriptions. These resembling results from different energy-momentum prescriptions may offer some basis to explain a exclusive quantity which supports Virabhadra's viewpoint. Secondly, the problem is discussed in modified gravity. In particular, we use generalized Landau-Lifshitz prescription for the determination of energy-momentum with reference to $f(R)$ theory of gravity. We explicitly compute the energy-momentum complex for the static spherically symmetric magnetically consistent regular black hole metric for a well-known choice of the $f(R)$ gravity models.

A contaminação do solo pode ocorrer por disposição inadequada de resíduos sólidos, por diversas atividades industriais, e esta pode atingir direta ou indiretamente os corpos d’água, fauna, vegetação e o ar. A contaminação do solo por derivados de petróleo tem sido intensamente estudada, mediante a preocupação em relação aos riscos ambientais, principalmente quando se trata de comercialização de petróleo e logística de produção e distribuição de seus derivados. Para avaliação dos efeitos de substâncias químicas sobre os ecossistemas terrestres os testes ecotoxicológicos podem ser empregados como uma ferramenta de monitoramento de contaminação de uma determinada área e para demonstrar a eficácia durante um processo de remediação. Em tais estudos, a espécie de minhoca Eisenia fetida é amplamente utilizada como organismo-teste.  Deste modo, o objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar a aplicabilidade de bioensaios de ecotoxicidade utilizando Eisenia fetida para avaliação da toxicidade de solos de locais supostamente contaminados por derivados de petróleo da cidade de João Monlevade-MG. No teste de comportamento, apenas nas amostras do solo P1 pode ser considerado propício à sobrevivência desta espécie. A análise do percentual de mortalidade da Eisenia fetida no ensaio de letalidade mostrou-se que estatisticamente os resultados não possuem diferença significativa. Na análise da biomassa final, os solos P2, P3 e P4 foram considerados iguais estatisticamente e solo P5 (controle) foi diferente dos demais. Nos solos P4 foi possível observar uma mudança na coloração das minhocas, indicando um possível efeito sub-letal, causado pela presença de agentes tóxicos no solo. O teste de reprodução apontou que os solos P1 e P5 foram os únicos propícios à reprodução, o que pode ser evidenciado pela presença de casulos e filhotes. Os resultados sugerem que Eisenia fetida constitui-se em um bioindicador sensível para avaliação da contaminação dos ecossistemas terrestres por petróleo e derivados.

The use of lime, gypsum, and different cover crops may influence the soil physical attributes, the formation of soil coverage before the crop implantation is crucial for the consolidation of the No-Tillage System. This work aimed to evaluate the alterations in the subsoil physical attributes, influenced by different cover crops combined with the application of lime and gypsum, in a no-tillage system in the Cerrado region, the soil of the experiment area was classified as Dystrophic Red Latosol. The experiment was carried out in Chapadão do Sul, state of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil, in a complete randomized block design, in a split-plot scheme. Plots consisted of cover crops (Urochloa ruziziensis and Pennisetum glaucum) and fallow; the subplots were formed by gypsum rates (0, 2.3, and 4.6 Mg ha-1); and the sub-sub-plots consisted of lime rates (0, 2, 4, and 6 Mg ha-1), with three replications. The cover crops, Uruchloa ruziziensis, Pennisetum glaucum and the rates of limestone and gypsum do not interfere with the density of the soil. The Uruchloa ruziziensis cover crop provides increased microporosity and total soil porosity. The cover crops Uruchloa ruziziensis and Pennisetum glaucum were not efficient in decompressing the soil in the layers of 0.20 - 0.30 and 0.30 - 0.40 m in depth. The residual effect of the lime rate of 2 Mg ha-1 without gypsum application provided higher total porosity the 0.30 - 0.40 m layer.

Published: April 2020

A erva-mate (Ilex paraguariensis A. St.-Hil. - Aquifoliaceae) é uma espécie de grande importância na silvicultura da região Sul do Brasil. Além do tradicional chimarrão, do tererê e do chá-mate, sua matéria prima tem sido aplicada na produção de alimentos, bebidas, cosméticos, produtos de higienização e em importantes medicamentos. Recentemente tem ocorrido aumento na procura por produtos derivados de erva-mate em diversos países, tal como Itália, Espanha e Estados Unidos. Porém, a produção de erva-mate ainda sofre alguns entraves, principalmente quanto à produção de mudas. Esta, na maioria das vezes, se dá pela propagação sexuada, o que pode resultar em baixa produtividade e qualidade do produto final, o que consequentemente resulta em menor rentabilidade aos produtores. Tudo isso devido à falta de protocolos eficientes para propagação clonal da espécie, bem como o conhecimento sobre os fatores que interferem no processo de enraizamento, balanço hormonal, utilização de indutores de enraizamento, época de coleta do propágulo, idade cronológica de progenitores, ambiente de enraizamento, substratos e soluções nutritivas. Quanto ao método empregado para a realização da pesquisa, utilizou-se de revisão bibliográfica sobre os fatores que influenciam no enraizamento de estacas e miniestacas de erva-mate, abordando artigos científicos publicados a partir de 2009 com propagação vegetativa por estaquia de Ilex paraguariensis. A finalidade dessa revisão é verificar o estado da arte e a viabilidade da propagação vegetativa por estaquia e miniestaquia de erva-mate.

A fruticultura é uma modalidade que impulsiona a economia do Nordeste. Acredita-se que a compreensão sobre as características químicas e valor nutricional das frutas servem como ferramenta para propor melhorias na forma de consumo e no aproveitamento desses alimentos. O trabalho exposto teve como objetivo avaliar as características físico-químicas dos frutos tropicais comercializadas em feiras livres na cidade de Mossoró-RN. Para isso, foram adquiridos frutos de abacaxi, banana, manga e caju, esses foram higienizados e submetidos às análises de pH, umidade, vitamina C, sólidos solúveis e açúcares solúveis totais. Os resultados apontam que a frutas analisadas possuem um valor aproximado de pH, sendo a média da faixa entre 3,9 – 4,2, mostrando que as frutas possuem um caráter ácido. O teor de umidade variou entre 81% e 71% para o caju e a banana, respectivamente. As concentrações de vitamina C foram bastantes variáveis, sendo o caju o mais concentrado e o abacaxi o menos, com uma média de 49,5 e 17 mg de vitamina C/100 g de fruta, respectivamente. Para os sólidos solúveis, o abacaxi e manga foram as frutas com mais concentração, porém, quando avaliado os açucares solúveis totais a banana é a fruta com a maior concentração. Por tanto, pode-se observar que os frutos tropicais apresentaram um ótimo valor nutritivo e um elevado conteúdo de compostos antioxidantes.
