Health characteristics associated with chemsex among men who have sex with men: Results from a cross-sectional clinic survey in Norway
Authors: Amundsen Eirik , Haugstvedt Åse , Skogen Vegard , Berg Rigmor C.
Published: October 2022

Background

Chemsex typically involves drugs such as GHB/GBL, crystal meth and mephedrone, and is increasingly common among MSM. The behaviour has been found to be associated with sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and mental health problems. We aimed to assess the extent of chemsex engagement and associations with different aspects of health, among MSM attending a free specialist walk-in clinic for STIs in Oslo, Norway.

Methods

Anonymous cross-sectional survey data was collected from June to October 2016. Differences in STI health (chlamydia, gonorrhoea, syphilis, HIV diagnoses), mental health (depression/anxiety) and internalised homonegativity between MSM using and not using GHB/GBL, crystal meth, mephedrone, cocaine or ketamine with sex in the last year were assessed descriptively and in a multivariate logistic regression model. The predictors were number of self-reported chlamydia, gonorrhoea or syphilis diagnoses, HIV diagnosis, depression/anxiety, and degree of internalised homonegativity. We adjusted for age, education level and having lived abroad.

Results

Of the 518 MSM respondents, 17% reported sexualised use of either GHB/GBL, crystal meth, mephedrone, cocaine or ketamine in the last year (chemsex). We found significant positive associations between chemsex and self-reported HIV diagnoses (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 3.26, 95%CI = 1.37–7.76), number of reported chlamydia, gonorrhoea or syphilis diagnoses in the last year (aOR = 1.63, 95%CI = 1.18–2.12), having lived more than one year abroad (aOR = 2.10, 95%CI = 1.20–3.65), but no significant association with depression/anxiety (aOR = 1.02, 95%CI = 0.53–1.93), nor internalised homonegativity (aOR = 0.62, 95%CI = 0.33–1.19).

Conclusion

Chemsex engagement in Norway is relatively low compared to findings from STI clinics in other European countries, and GHB/GBL and cocaine the two most commonly used drugs with sex. Chemsex was more common among MSM having lived more than one year abroad, reporting HIV diagnoses and a higher number of either chlamydia, gonorrhoea or syphilis diagnoses in the last year. Health care providers need to be made aware of chemsex as a behavioural phenomenon among MSM, and special care should be afforded to MSM living with HIV and being diagnosed with STIs.

Published: October 2022

Accurate building inventories are essential for city planning and disaster risk management. Traditionally generated via census or selected small surveys, these suffer from data quality and/or resolution. High-resolution satellite imagery with object segmentation provides an effective
alternative, readily capturing large extents. This study develops a highly automated building extraction methodology for location-based building exposure data from high (0.5 m) resolution satellite stereo imagery. The development relied on Taipei test areas covering 13.5 km2 before
application to the megacity of Jakarta. Of the captured Taipei buildings, 48.8% are at one-to-one extraction, improving to 71.9% for larger buildings with total floor area >8000 m2, and to 99% when tightly-spaced building clusters are further included. Mean absolute error in
extracted footprint area is 16% for these larger buildings. The extraction parameters are tuned for Jakarta buildings using small test areas before covering Jakarta's 643 km2 with over 1.247 million buildings extracted.
Novel Residual Attitude Estimation Approach Using Georeferenced Satellite Imagery
Authors: Dubey Bhaskar , Kartikeyan B.
Published: October 2022

This article presents an efficient novel approach estimating residual attitude based on geometrically corrected (GEO ) satellite images. A technique is presented that uses orbital plane geometry to compute the rotation angle as a function of geographic latitude between GEO image space
and radiometrically corrected (RAD ) image space. First, a nonlinear forward model is established that translates the residual errors in roll, pitch, and yaw to scan errors and pixel errors in GEO image space. Subsequently, the inverse problem is solved using Newton's method of nonlinear optimization
for estimating residual roll, pitch, and yaw. We demonstrate our results on data products of the high-resolution Indian satellites Cartosat-2E and Cartosat-2F. Further, the superiority of the proposed method is established by comparing it with multiple existing methods in the literature. The
R2 measures of goodness of fit for roll, pitch, and yaw estimation based on RAD and GEO products using the proposed method are 0.65, 0.99, and 0.65, respectively; using the existing method, they are 0.074, 0.005, and 0.50.

Authors: Ibrahim Mohammed Gunu , Ibrahim Kamil
Published: October 2022

This study explores the causes, forms and effects of teacher misbehaviour on the educational progression of basic school level students in the Tamale Metropolis in the Northern Region of Ghana. The study employed the survey design and adopted a quantitative approach in analyzing the data. The findings revealed that absenteeism, drunkenness, sexual abuse, and drug abuse were forms of misbehaviour practised by some teachers in public basic schools in Tamale. Precipitating factors included poor living environment, inadequate salaries and teachers residing faraway from schools. Based on these findings, the research recommended that Ghana Education Service in the Tamale Metropolis should withdraw or sanction any teacher found to be engaging with the abuse of drugs and other substances. Headteachers of basic schools in the metropolis should be given more training on monitoring and effective observation of their teachers and on their relationship with the students, especially female students.
FEM-BEM Coupling for the Maxwell–Landau–Lifshitz–Gilbert Equations via Convolution Quadrature: Weak Form and Numerical Approximation
Authors: Bohn Jan , Feischl Michael , Kovács Balázs
Published: October 2022

The full Maxwell equations in the unbounded three-dimensional space coupled to the Landau–Lifshitz–Gilbert equation serve as a well-tested model for ferromagnetic materials.
We propose a weak formulation of the coupled system based on the boundary integral formulation of the exterior Maxwell equations.
We show existence and partial uniqueness of a weak solution and propose a new numerical algorithm based on finite elements and boundary elements as spatial discretization with backward Euler and convolution quadrature for the time domain.
This is the first numerical algorithm which is able to deal with the coupled system of Landau–Lifshitz–Gilbert equation and full Maxwell’s equations without any simplifications like quasi-static approximations (e.g. eddy current model) and without restrictions on the shape of the domain (e.g. convexity).
We show well-posedness and convergence of the numerical algorithm under minimal assumptions on the regularity of the solution.
This is particularly important as there are few regularity results available and one generally expects the solution to be non-smooth.
Numerical experiments illustrate and expand on the theoretical results.

Authors: Schweisberger Cintya L. , Hornberger Laurie , Barral Romina , Burke Charles , Paprocki Emily , Sherman Ashley , Vanden Brink Heidi , Burgert Tania S.
Published: October 2022

Objectives

The objective of our study was to describe the prevalence of gender diverse (GD) youth  among adolescents with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).

Methods

We conducted a retrospective chart review on patients who met NIH criteria for PCOS in our Multidisciplinary Adolescent PCOS Program (MAPP). We compared those with PCOS to MAPP patients who did not meet PCOS criteria as well as to non-PCOS patients from the Adolescent Specialty Clinic (ASC). Variables analyzed included gender identity, androgen levels, hirsutism scores, and mood disorders. We used chi-square, Fisher’s exact, t-tests, and Wilcoxon rank sum tests to compare groups.  Gender identities self-reported as male, fluid/both or nonbinary  were pooled into the GD category.

Results

Within the MAPP, 7.6% (n=12) of PCOS youth self-identified as GD compared to 1.8% (n=3) of non PCOS youth (p=0.01, chi-square). When compared to non-PCOS GD adolescents from ASC (4.4%; n=3), the difference to PCOS youth was no longer significant (p=0.56). Among MAPP patients, gender diversity was associated with higher hirsutism scores (p<0.01), but not higher androgen levels. In PCOS, depression/anxiety was higher in GD vs cisgender youth (100% vs. 37.6%, p<0.01 and 77.8% vs. 35.8%, p=0.03 respectively).

Conclusions

Gender diversity was observed more commonly in those meeting PCOS criteria. PCOS GD youth were more hirsute and reported more depression/anxiety. Routine screening for differences in gender identity in comprehensive adolescent PCOS programs could benefit these patients, as alternate treatment approaches may be desired to support a transmasculine identity.

Overharvesting significantly impacts biodiversity and cultivation practices amidst the beautiful nature of these nutraceuticals. This book chapter focuses on the therapeutic potential of commonly used South African medicinal plants, their ethnopharmacological properties, and how we can conserve this treasure cove we call home for future generations.
Experimental study of the shear strength criterion of rock structural plane based on three-dimensional surface description
Authors: Ji Feng , Shi Yuchuan , Wang Lei , He Xiao , Hou Shengshan , Feng Wenkai , Liu Changjiang
Published: October 2022

The failure of rock mass is mainly due to the failure of the structural plane, which is an important factor to reduce the mechanical properties and stability of rock mass. The shear strength of rock mass is one of the parameters for the stability calculation of large-scale rock mass engineering. The shear strength of a rock structural plane is strongly influenced by surface morphology. Considerable research has been conducted regarding the correlation between two-dimensional structural plane morphology and shear strength. However, quantitative research on three-dimensional (3D) morphology is relatively limited. In this study, 3D printing technology was used to create molds. Using cement and sand as the main materials, additives such as early strength and water-reducing agents were added, and test samples of irregular surface topography were created. The 3D roughness was quantified by formula calculation. Using a ZScanner® 800 hand-held 3D laser scanner to perform scanning on the structural surface, the parameter curve was analysed by generating 3D coordinate information and a 3D image of the fracture surface, and the quantitative parameter

Published: October 2022

Objectives

The anti-proliferative effects of Citrus hystrix have been reported. However, information on breast and colorectal cancer is limited especially the mechanistic aspects. In this study, the antioxidant activities of hexane, ethyl acetate, methanol and water extracts of C. hystrix leaves and their growth inhibitory effects on colorectal (HCT 116) and breast cancer (MCF 7, MDA-MB 231 and HCC 1937) cells were analysed.

Methods

Antioxidant and oxidative stress status were measured using non-cellular and cellular assays. Caspase and gene expression were utilized to determine anti-proliferative effects. Polyphenolic content was analysed using LC-IT-TOF/MS.

Results

The water extract showed the highest polyphenolic content and antioxidant activities (FRAP, DPPH, ABTS, superoxide anion radical scavenging, ferrous ion chelation, cellular antioxidant assay). The ethyl acetate extracts of C. hystrix (CH-EA) demonstrated the highest anti-proliferative activity against all cancer cell lines (IC50<100 μg/mL). Increase in ROS was observed in CH-EA-treated HCT 116, MDA-MB 231 and HCC 1937 cells (p<0.05). Increase in caspase activities and upregulation of Bax, Bcl-2, Cdk-1, TP53 and TNF-α expression in HCT 116 cells indicated activation of apoptosis by CH-EA. LC-IT-TOF/MS analysis indicated presence of quercetin and rutin in CH-EA.

Conclusions

CH-EA showed anti-proliferative effects, possibly through modulation of oxidative stress and apoptosis.

O presente artigo apresenta o resultado da investigação sobre a hegemonia da forma de tradução conhecida como belles infidèles (criada no século XVII) ao longo do século XVIII, na França. Para tanto, três pesquisas foram consultadas nas áreas de Historiografia da Tradução, Filosofia e Literatura, todas tratando do pensamento tradutório do período. Das três, apenas a última centrou sua análise nas belles infidèles. A pesquisa em Historiografia da Tradução considera que o século XVIII teve várias ideias sobre tradução presentes em diferentes meios, o que permite aos pesquisadores múltiplas portas de entrada ao pensamento tradutório setecentista. Já a pesquisa filosófica observa que havia uma teoria tradutória predominante no período, fundamentada nos princípios filosóficos da Gramática de Port Royal.
A TRADUÇÃO DE HUMOR PODE SER ‘PROFUNDAMENTE’ DOMESTICADORA?
Authors: Roberto Barros Silva Nilson , Rodrigues Rebechi Rozane
Published: October 2022

Recuperar o humor na tradução é uma atividade particularmente desafiadora, visto que a comicidade está diretamente ligada às estruturas linguísticas e especificidades culturais. E quando as passagens humorísticas são o cerne de uma obra, recuperá-las na tradução deve ser prioridade para que se mantenha a função do texto. O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar a análise da tradução para a língua inglesa de jogos de palavras contidos no romance O xangô de Baker Street, de Jô Soares, e verificar se o tradutor, Clifford Landers, conseguiu recuperar no texto traduzido a função desses trocadilhos, identificados por meio da Linguística de Corpus. Ademais, buscamos analisar se suas escolhas tradutórias são condizentes com sua declarada preferência pela estratégia domesticadora. Concluímos que o tradutor se valeu de domesticação e de estrangeirização na tradução dos jogos de palavras, e nem sempre as opções atingiram a almejada manutenção do efeito do texto original.

Olig2Ablation in Immature Oligodendrocytes Does Not Enhance CNS Myelination and Remyelination
Authors: Wang Jiajia , Yang Lijun , Jiang Minqing , Zhao Chuntao , Liu Xuezhao , Berry Kalen , Waisman Ari , Langseth Abraham J. , Novitch Bennett G. , Bergles Dwight E. , Nishiyama Akiko , Lu Q. Richard
Published: October 2022

The oligodendrocyte (OL) lineage transcription factor Olig2 is expressed throughout oligodendroglial development and is essential for oligodendroglial progenitor specification and differentiation. It was previously reported that deletion ofOlig2enhanced the maturation and myelination of immature OLs and accelerated the remyelination process. However, by analyzing multipleOlig2conditional KO mouse lines (male and female), we conclude that Olig2 has the opposite effect and is required for OL maturation and remyelination. We found that deletion ofOlig2in immature OLs driven by an immature OL-expressingPlp1promoter resulted in defects in OL maturation and myelination, and did not enhance remyelination after demyelination. Similarly,Olig2deletion during premyelinating stages in immature OLs usingMobporMogpromoter-driven Cre lines also did not enhance OL maturation in the CNS. Further, we found that Olig2 was not required for myelin maintenance in mature OLs but was critical for remyelination after lysolecithin-induced demyelinating injury. Analysis of genomic occupancy in immature and mature OLs revealed that Olig2 targets the enhancers of key myelination-related genes for OL maturation from immature OLs. Together, by leveraging multiple immature OL-expressing Cre lines, these studies indicate that Olig2 is essential for differentiation and myelination of immature OLs and myelin repair. Our findings raise fundamental questions about the previously proposed role of Olig2 in opposing OL myelination and highlight the importance of using Cre-dependent reporter(s) for lineage tracing in studying cell state progression.

SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTIdentification of the regulators that promote oligodendrocyte (OL) myelination and remyelination is important for promoting myelin repair in devastating demyelinating diseases. Olig2 is expressed throughout OL lineage development. Ablation ofOlig2was reported to induce maturation, myelination, and remyelination from immature OLs. However, lineage-mapping analysis ofOlig2-ablated cells was not conducted. Here, by leveraging multiple immature OL-expressing Cre lines, we observed no evidence thatOlig2ablation promotes maturation or remyelination of immature OLs. Instead, we find that Olig2 is required for immature OL maturation, myelination, and myelin repair. These data raise fundamental questions about the proposed inhibitory role of Olig2 against OL maturation and remyelination. Our findings highlight the importance of validating genetic manipulation with cell lineage tracing in studying myelination.

The LOI value of Xuan paper reached 33.3% after 20 BLs CS/SA coating. Its char length was reduced to 8.8 cm with no after-flame and after-glow. These results showed that the flame retardancy of Xuan paper was greatly improved by LbL assembly CS/SA coating. Thermogravimetry results revealed that CS/SA coating on Xuan paper slowed down the thermal degradation process and promoted the char formation both under nitrogen and air atmosphere. The stable char layer formation by CS/SA coating covered on the Xuan paper inhibited the heat transfer and diffusion of combustible gases, showing obvious condensed phase flame retardant action. Scanning electron microscopy confirmed that CS/SA coating on paper fiber promoted the char formation to form the stable covering layer. Furthermore, the CS/SA coating formed non-flammable gases to enhance the flame retardancy of Xuan paper, showing a certain gas phase flame retardant action. This research provides a new approach for fire-resistant Xuan paper by using fully bio-based compounds.

Authors: Alfaro-Ayvar Janet Rocio , Inostroza-Ruiz Luis Alberto , Castro-Luna Américo Jorge
Published: October 2022

Los frutos de Hylocereus monacanthus se consideran una fuente prometedora de antioxidantes naturales por lo que es un alimento considerado funcional y nutraceútico. El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar la actividad hepatoprotectora del extracto etanólico del Hylocereus monacanthus (EEtH) en ratas albinas con toxicidad aguda inducida por tetracloruro de carbono. Mediante un análisis fitoquímico se demostró que el fruto de Hylocereus monacanthus contiene fenoles, flavonoides, entre otros metabolitos secundarios; la actividad hepatoprotectora se evaluó a través del ensayo bioquímico de la albumina (ALB), bilirrubina directa (BD), bilirrubina indirecta (BI), bilirrubina total (BT), fosfatasa alcalina (FAL), globulinas (GLOB), proteínas totales (PT) y transaminasa glutámica oxalacética (TGO) en suero y un estudio histopatológico. El tratamiento con EEtH en ratas albinas con hepatotoxicidad inducida por CCl4 mantuvo disminuidos los valores de la actividad de FAL, TGO, BT, BD, BI; mientras que el valor de las PT permaneció incrementado; sin embargo, los valores de la ALB y GLOB no sufrieron cambios significativos y protegió los cambios histopatológicos del CCl4. Se concluye que el EEtH posee potente efecto hepatoprotector sobre lesiones de origen tóxico-metabólico como las provocadas por CCl4 en ratas albinas y se debería a su elevada actividad antioxidante.
