Obese patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) are prone to severe forms of COVID-19. There is an urgent need for new treatments that lower the severity of COVID-19 in this vulnerable population. To better replicate the human context, we set up a diet-induced model of obesity associated with dyslipidemia and NASH in the golden hamster (known to be a relevant preclinical model of COVID-19). A 20-week, free-choice diet induces obesity, dyslipidemia, and NASH (liver inflammation and fibrosis) in golden hamsters. Obese NASH hamsters have higher blood and pulmonary levels of inflammatory cytokines. In the early stages of a SARS-CoV-2 infection, the lung viral load and inflammation levels were similar in lean hamsters and obese NASH hamsters. However, obese NASH hamsters showed worse recovery (i.e., less resolution of lung inflammation 10 days post-infection (dpi) and lower body weight recovery on dpi 25). Obese NASH hamsters also exhibited higher levels of pulmonary fibrosis on dpi 25. Unlike lean animals, obese NASH hamsters infected with SARS-CoV-2 presented long-lasting dyslipidemia and systemic inflammation. Relative to lean controls, obese NASH hamsters had lower serum levels of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 activity and higher serum levels of angiotensin II—a component known to favor inflammation and fibrosis. Even though the SARS-CoV-2 infection resulted in early weight loss and incomplete body weight recovery, obese NASH hamsters showed sustained liver steatosis, inflammation, hepatocyte ballooning, and marked liver fibrosis on dpi 25. We conclude that diet-induced obesity and NASH impair disease recovery in SARS-CoV-2-infected hamsters. This model might be of value for characterizing the pathophysiologic mechanisms of COVID-19 and evaluating the efficacy of treatments for the severe forms of COVID-19 observed in obese patients with NASH.
Path-Planning Strategy for Lane Changing Based on Adaptive-Grid Risk-Fields of Autonomous Vehicles
Authors: Yang Zhengcai , Hu Yunzhong , Zhang Youbing
Published: September 2022

The quantification and effective representation of safety risks for scenarios in structured road traffic environments of autonomous driving are currently being investigated in an active way. Based on artificial potential fields, a risk-field model for the traffic environment that considers the motion state of an obstacle vehicle is established, and an adaptive-grid risk-field method is proposed for autonomous vehicles. In this method, the traffic environment is meshed initially, and adaptive-grid division is performed using a quadtree grid-dividing strategy for root grids where the grid risk values are within the division interval, which allows for a more accurate quantification of traffic environment risk values. Adding adaptive-grid risk-field parameters to the cost function of the path-planning algorithm improves the accuracy of path safety risk assessment and completes the evaluation and selection of the optimal lane-change path. Simulation results show that the adaptive-grid risk-field established in this paper can effectively express the safety risks of the traffic environment, and the path-planning algorithm incorporating the adaptive-grid risk-field can obtain better paths for lane change compared with the traditional path-planning algorithm, while ensuring the safety of lane change.
Exposure to Brucella spp. in Goats and Sheep in Karenga District, Uganda Diagnosed by Modified Rose Bengal Method
Authors: Akwongo Claire Julie , Kakooza Steven
Published: September 2022

A retrospective study was conducted in 2022 to determine the seroprevalence of brucellosis and its risk factors among goat and sheep herds in the Karenga district, Karamoja region, Uganda. Sera from 332 goats and 81 sheep from 20 kraals in all seven administrative units of the district were tested using the modified Rose Bengal test (mRBT). It was determined that brucellosis was present in 20% of the small ruminant herds in the Karenga district, with an overall animal level seropositivity of 3.39% (CI: 1.87–5.62%; n = 14/413). Higher seropositivity was recorded in goats (3.92%, CI: 2.1–6.6%) than sheep (1.23%, CI: 0.03–6.69%). Similarly, seropositivity was higher in females (3.95%, CI: 2.12–6.66%) than males (1.19%, CI: 0.03–6.456), and also higher in goats and sheep more than two years old (4.15%, CI: 2.09–7.31%) than those one to two years old (1.98%, CI: 0.24–6.97%) or those less than one year old (2.13%, CI: 0.05–11.29%). Only herd size was statistically significant (p < 0.05) as a risk factor for exposure to brucellosis in the Karenga district. Although the prevalence of brucellosis among goats and sheep in the Karenga district is low, there still exists a risk to the pastoralists who closely interact with the animals and also practice risky behaviours such as consumption of uncooked or unpasteurised goat milk. There is need to expand herd health messaging in Karenga to include risk communication on brucellosis and other zoonotic diseases.

Recently, many farms are increasingly using such a reserve of intensification of feed production as the cultivation of new low-spread varieties of feed crops. In this regard, sorghum, a widespread crop of southern latitudes, is attracting more and more attention. Sorghum crops due to their high heat and drought resistance, unpretentiousness to soils and low demands on nutrients, can replace cereal crops such as wheat, barley, corn, etc. The article is devoted to the study of the chemical composition and nutritional value of 15 sorghum varieties grown in the Stavropol Territory. The originator and patent holder of all these varieties is Federal State Budgetary Scientific Institution “North Caucasian Federal Scientifi c Agrarian Center”. The results of the study of these sorghum varieties in the laboratory of physiology and biochemical analysis in the Siberian Scientifi c and Research Institute of Poultry showed that the nutritional value of sorghum grain has diff erences both in varieties and in comparison with the average data specifi ed in the reference manual for poultry feeding. The varieties Zersta-38A, Knyazhna, A-63, Pharaoh, KiM, Ayushka, Athlete, Stavropol-63 and Krusta turned out to be the richest in crude protein content, but at the same time crude fat content and metabolic energy in them are less than those indicated in the methodological guide. Based on the results obtained, experimental compound feed recipes for broiler chickens and laying hens have been developed with the inclusion of varieties of different nutritional values and doses of sorghum grain with the possibility of partial or complete replacement of wheat. The conducted research is of interest because poultry is a competitor of humans in wheat consumption in order to save the traditional widely used grain crop.

Breeding and genetic improvement of blood lines and families is carried out continuously through selection, mating and management of purebreeding, taking into account the individual characteristics of animals. This determines the relevance of scientifi c research in this area. The results of studying the productive traits of pigs of diff erent blood lines and families in the Belarusian population of Yorkshire breed, their evaluation and further use in pig breeding in the formation of herds have been presented in the article. The studies were carried out during 2011–2020. The object of the research was the purebred animals of diff erent lines of pigs of Yorkshire breed bred in OAO “Selection and Hybrid Center “Zapadny” in the Brest region. As a result of the evaluation, the best lines and families have been identifi ed that can be used in further breeding work with animals of Yorkshire breed. Boars of the lines HENNATI, Farad and Factor were recognized as the best in terms of reproductive traits. Young boars of the line HENNATI were the best in terms of their own productivity and reached a live weight of 100 kg for 152,8 days and had an average daily gain of 678,3 g. The content of lean meat in the body of boars of this line reached 59 %. According to the reproductive traits of sows, the best indicators were animals of the lines Friend, Farad, Duchess, so, the prolifi cacy was 11,6–12,1 piglets per farrowing. When analyzing the productive traits of blood families, the best indicator of milk capacity (60,3–62,6 kg) was shown by sows belonging to the families Catalina and Taiga. According to the litter weight at the weaning, animals of the families Taiga and Fortuna were recognized as the best – 78,7–80,1 kg. The novelty lies in the fact that in our study we propose to use promising blood lines and families of pigs of the Belarusian population of Yorkshire breed in the formation of breeding herds, and their use in breeding and industrial pig breeding.

O Brasil possui grandes depósitos de resíduos industriais que podem afetar o meio ambiente no que tange sua contaminação dos lençóis freáticos e desastre ambientais. As fibras vegetais tem características importante como, são abundantes, possuem boas propriedades, são menos abrasivas em relação a fibras sintéticas, são biodegradáveis. Com isso o artigo visa confeccionar compósitos de resíduos de cinzas, provenientes das fornalhas das caldeiras, e fibras vegetais de sisal adquiridas do comércio de Belém-PA. As propriedades mecânicas de resistência a tração e morfologia foram verificadas. As proporções de cinzas inseridas nos compósitos foram de 10 % e 20 % em massa e a proporção de fibras inseridas nos compósitos foi fixada em 5 % em massa. O método de fabricação dos compósitos foi o hand lay-up em molde metálico com pressão de 2,5 kN. A matriz utilizada foi a resina poliéster isoftálica, acelerador a base de cobalto e o iniciador. As fibras de sisal foram dispersas randomicamente dentro da matriz com a cinza. Os ensaios mecânicos de tração basearam-se na norma ASTM D 3039 e a análise morfológica por microscopia eletrônica de varredura. Os compósitos com 10 % de cinza com fibras apresentaram melhor resistência mecânica e as análises morfológicas mostraram as superfícies fraturadas, como distribuição e compactação dos resíduos e das fibras dentro da matriz, fibras rompidas, pull out, irradiações de trincas internas e outras características peculiares das superfícies fraturadas.

Ensino de informática médica por meio de metodologias ativas de aprendizagem / Teaching medical informatics by using active learning methods
Authors: Couto Bráulio Roberto Gonçalves Marinho
Published: September 2022

Apesar das evidências favoráveis aos métodos de aprendizagem ativos, ainda não conseguimos aplicar universalmente essa prática. Neste trabalho, foi aplicada metodologia ativa de aprendizagem no ensino de Informática Médica. O objetivo foi responder duas questões:é possível fazer iniciação científica em “sala de aula”, por meio de métodos ativos de aprendizagem? Como os estudantes avaliam processos ativos de aprendizagem? O trabalho foi estruturado em Aprendizagem Baseada em Projetos, Aprendizagem Baseada em Times e Just-In-time-Teaching. Alunos de Medicina do UniBH, instituição de ensino privada de Belo Horizonte, MG, foram divididos em 10 grupos que elaboraram projetos de pesquisa com dados reais. Ao final do semestre, após a execução da pesquisa, seus resultados foram apresentados no Encontro de Saberes da Universidade Federal de Outo Preto (UFOP), evento de iniciação científica. Pode-se concluir que é possível fazer iniciação científica em “sala de aula” usando métodos ativos de aprendizagem. Entretanto, o custo foi alto, o professor e o processo de ensino-aprendizagem não foram bem avaliados pelos alunos.

A contação de história constitui-se instrumento eficaz no desenvolvimento do imaginário das crianças, que é tanto mais aguçado quanto maior for a descrição de personagens e ambientes. No entanto, nem sempre a criança conhece tais informações e outros elementos vêm possibilitar a construção de conceitos. A criança cega necessita ainda mais de um variado e acessível repertório ilustrativo durante a audição e de um contador que conheça sua realidade, seus processos e meios de aprendizagem. Esse trabalho foca o desenvolvimento do imaginário da criança cega e do seu processo de compreensão da realidade, reflete acerca de suas possibilidades e impedimentos e utiliza a contação de histórias como instrumento contributivo. Tendo como um de seus embasadores teóricos o Programa Etnomatemática, busca elucidar também a amplitude de influência e contribuição deste na Educação Inclusiva.

Purpose: to identify the influence of the professional orientation of education and lifestyle (sports) on the indicators of psychophysiological functions and orthostatic reactions of students of various faculties of pedagogical universities.
Material and methods. 812 students of pedagogical institutions of higher education of Ukraine took part in the study: 88 students of the faculty of elementary education, 76 students of history, 130 of natural sciences, 131 of foreign philology, 93 of the faculty of preschool education, 198 of Ukrainian language, 25 of the faculty of physical education and sports, 24 students from the Faculty of Arts, 47 students from the Faculty of Psychology and Sociology. Psychophysiological testing was carried out according to the Psychodiagnostics program and involved determining the speed of a simple visual-motor reaction, determining the speed of a choice of two elements out of three. During psychophysiological testing, the reaction time and the number of errors were determined for each test.
The results. Students of the faculties of elementary education, preschool education, and the faculty of natural sciences have a significantly shorter reaction time in the test for a simple visual-motor reaction (p<0.05), and, accordingly, the best indicators of the mobility of nervous processes in comparison with students of other faculties of pedagogical universities. These faculties have the largest number of errors in the test for the choice of two elements out of three (p<0.05), and, accordingly, the lowest strength of nervous processes.
Conclusions. Sports have a positive effect on the indicators of the strength of nervous processes according to the results of the number of errors in the reaction test for choosing two items out of three (p<0.05). Also, playing sports has a positive effect on the quality of vegetative regulation of vascular tone, which is reflected in lower values ​​of the heart rate during the transition from a horizontal position of the body to a vertical one in students who play sports (p<0.05).

Purpose: Several studies have shown that platelet size is a reliable indicator of platelet activity and, therefore, a valuable biomarker for cardiovascular events. Many inflammatory and prothrombotic disorders have been linked to it. As a biomarker for inflammation and neoplastic disease, This study aims to examine existing research on changes to mean platelet volume (MPV).

Materials and methods: The present study portrays MPV comparison among the female players who participated in three games viz Yoga, Volleyball, and Rugby conducted at the university level throughout India with age groups ranging from 17 to 25 years in the sample. The sample size is 45, with 15 players chosen from each game Yoga, Volleyball, and Rugby.

Results: The results mean, standard deviation (SD), standard error of the mean (SEM), and lowest and maximum scores were used to examine the data. SPSS software was used to do the One-Way Analysis of variance. It was observed that there is a significant difference in the MPV of players from three distinct sports. Furthermore, there exists a one-to-one correspondence between the MPV between the players participating in individual games. The present results displayed the values of MPV among players from different games are independent of one another and unaffected by one another.

Conclusion: The study's findings indicate a significant difference in the MPV of players from three distinct sports. However, when MPV of Volleyball and rugby players were compared, it was discovered that they were connected. In conclusion, MPV among players from different games are independent of one another and unaffected by one another. Variability in MPV was also observed across all sample sizes in the study.
The Sense of Resisting Power in the Performance of the Makidi Kooththu (Art Form) - A Study
Authors: S Chandrakumar
Published: September 2022

The Makidi Kooththu is a significant art form in Sri Lankan traditional Art Theatre. This argues the disputes among the people who arrived and the people who already there in a ritual form. In the later period, it has grown up to the level of a space which is incorporating people even from the social power space, and debating at the performance level. This has the feature of exposing the power that cannot be able to interpret the opposition directly, converting and presenting it as a ritual art form creation in their cultural space. The important mechanism used here is to allow the audience to have conversation during the performance level of Kooththu and to make them think. The ritual form which is in practice among people is one of the strategies used by them to expose this sense of resisting power. This Makidi Kooththu is a People's stage device which is created in a ritual art form theatre in order to curtail the power. The factors such as the way the ritual form is managed and the manner the power is resisted are analysed here.

Не є секретом те, що за останні десятиріччя рівень розповсюдження ортодонтичних патологій досяг критичних показників. Відсутність своєчасної ортодонтичної допомоги дітям, особливо у ранні періоди розвитку зубощелепних аномалій, сприяє збільшенню вторинних деформацій в подальшому віці та ускладнює процеси ортодонтичної підготовки до раціонального протезування.Загальновідомо, що ортодонтична допомога не є ургентною і надається, в основному, на платній основі. Виходячи з цього, для встановлення об’єктивних цін для пацієнтів і справедливого нарахування заробітної платні лікарям, медсестрам та зубним технікам, а також обліку їх праці, необхідні нормативні показники тривалості того чи іншого технологічного етапу надання відповідної медичної допомоги. Розповсюдженість ортодонтичних патологій в Україні достатньо висока і сягає від 67,8 % до 87,5 % у дітей та від 64,3 % до 84,3 % у підлітків та дорослих. Зубощелепні аномалії та деформації сопроводжуються ускладненнями у вигляді карієсу зубів, захворюваннями тканин пародонту та ВНЩС, що повністю корелюється із загальносвітовими показниками. Для встановлення об’єктивних цін для пацієнтів і справедливого нарахування заробітної платні лікарям-стоматологам, медсестрам та зубним технікам, а також обліку їх праці, необхідні діючи медико-технологічні протоколи надання відповідної ортодонтичної допомоги та офіційні нормативи часу на їх виконання у вигляді умовних одиниць трудомісткості (УОТ). Висновок. З метою удосконалення надання стоматологічної допомоги в Україні вкрай необхідні наукові дослідження по встановленню тривалості сучасних видів ортодонтичного лікування зубощелепних аномалій та деформацій у вигляді нових медико-технологічних протоколів надання відповідної допомоги та нових й об’єктивних умовних одиниць трудомісткості роботи відповідних фахівців.

Карієс представлений як одна з найпоширеніших стоматологічних проблем у цей період, яка може призвести до болю, інфекції, перешкод під час прийому їжі і зрештою, погіршити вплив на прорізування постійних зубів. Ці прояви можуть варіюватися від демінералізації до втрати структури зуба або повного руйнування коронки, процес динамічного та активного розпаду, що характеризується різними періодами руйнування та відновлення. До цього часу не проводилася клінічна оцінка ефективності лікувально-профілактичних заходів, що включає дієтичну добавку «Мінерол» та зубну пасту «Мінерол» на стоматологічний статус дітей 6-7 років з карієсом. зубів. Дослідження є актуальним для сучасної стоматології дитячого віку. Метою даної роботи була клінічна оцінка ефективності застосування розробленого лікувально-профілактичного комплексу у дітей 6-7 років із карієсом зубів. Матеріали та методи. У клінічному дослідженні брали участь 55 пацієнтів – діти віку 6-7 років з карієсом зубів (30 осіб – основна група, 25 осіб – група порівняння). При оцінці дії запропонованого лікувально-профілактичного комплексу було використано: карієспрофілактичну ефективність, що розраховується за приростом індексу КПУз за 1 рік спостережень. Гігієнічний стан ротової порожнини визначали в динаміці за допомогою індексів Silness- Loe та Stallard. Група порівняння отримувала базову терапію (санація ротової порожнини, професійна гігі- єна та навчання навичкам особистої гігієни). Основна група пацієнтів додатково до базової терапії одержувала розроблений лікувально-профілактичний комплекс. Висновок. Лікувально-профілактичний комплекс у дітей 6-7 років з карієсом зубів, розроблений на підставі експериментальних досліджень, дозволив загальмувати каріозний процес, нормалізувати гігієнічні індекси на всіх етапах лікування.

Мета дослідження. Проаналізувати показники поширеності патології периімплантиту за даними систематичних оглядів на імплантат- та пацієнт-досліджуваних рівнях, та їх взаємозв’язки з потенційними факторами впливу, ідентифікованими в ході мета-аналізів. Матеріали та методи. З метою формування первинної вибірки публікацій, асоційованих із поставленою метою дослідження, пошук таких здійснювався у базі даних “PubMed Central” з використанням розширених функцій запиту та застосуванням Mesh-термінів. Після реалізації пошуку за Mesh-термінами використовували фільтр “Systematic review”. Опрацювання відібраних наукових робіт передбачало проведення деталізованого контент-аналізу у відповідності до попередньо сформованих категорій. Наукова новизна. Проведений аналіз поширеності периімплантиту за даними систематичних оглядів на суб’єкт- та об’єкт-досліджуваних рівнях дозволив визначити наступні особливості, що стосувалися епідеміології периімплантаційних ускладнень: 1) поширеність периімплантиту на пацієнт-орієнтованому рівні перевищує показники поширеності периімплантиту на імплантат-орієнтованому рівні зі зростанням різниці між даними показниками при збільшенні співвідношення кількості встановлених інтраосальних опор на одного досліджуваного пацієнта; 2) застосування різних діагностичних підходів, а також різних рівнів порогових значень клінічних критеріїв діагностики периімплантиту провокує відмінності у встановлених рівнях поширеності периімплантиту серед проаналізованих досліджень. Висновки. Згідно результатів проаналізованих систематичних оглядів проблема уніфікації діагностичного підходу для клінічної ідентифікації випадків периімплантиту залишається остаточно невирішеною, та такою що наразі утруднює можливості для об’єктивної оцінки поширеності патології на рівні вибірок досліджуваних пацієнтів та імплантатів. Наявність пародонтиту в анамнезі, ідентифікація залишків фіксаційного цементу та дефіцит кератинізованої слизової за даними систематичних оглядів можуть бути категоризовані як фактори, асоційовані із вищою поширеністю патології периімплантиту. Геометричні особливості інтерфейсу з’єднання імплантат-абатмент потенційно можуть бути пов’язані зі специфічними тенденціями змін поширеності периімплантиту відносно встановленого середньостатистичного рівня.

Where topics on the LFPDPPP as well as other regulations such as the GDPR of the European Union were discussed. Mexico has already published this law for 8 years and until today; there are doubts about how to enforce this law, as many companies are unable to comply with it, which entails imposing fines depending on the degree of violation or alteration of the personal information. In the same way, a large part of the citizens do not know how to make use of their ARCO rights or the companies that own sensitive data do not allow it. Throughout this document will address relevant and current issues in our country in relation to the protection of personal data.

Nonrelevant quantum levels limited laser dynamic in narrow-period terahertz quantum cascade lasers
Authors: Wang Li , Lin Tsung-Tse , Wang Ke , Hirayama Hideki
Published: September 2022

The fundamental challenges faced by terahertz quantum cascade lasers are the operations below room temperature, and the recent improved operating temperatures are actually based on the narrow-period designs (2-well resonant-phonon scheme). In this study, we address the critical effect of nonrelevant high-confined quantum levels on the laser threshold current in such designs, i.e. at high temperatures, the resonant-tunneling channels passing through neighboring periods via those levels can dominantly increase the laser threshold current. As a result, the laser dynamics significantly shrink to zero even at 270 K. The channels cannot be easily eliminated as they are derived from the specific configuration of a two-quantum-well periodic structure, in which the width of the period is narrow, and the nonrelevant levels from the lower-well are confined down in energy. It is reasonable to suppress the current flowing across those levels by narrowing the lower-well further, but an appropriate balance of its thickness is essential.

Authors: Fan Rong , Chen Qiuyan , Chen Zongping
Published: September 2022

Understanding the role of the edge during the growth of hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is essential for its controllable synthesis and applications. We demonstrated two kinds of hydrogen-induced edge evolution of single-crystal hBN domains over time on liquid Cu via CVD. The morphology and edge evolution of the hBN domains in growth were well explained by the kinetic Wulff construction theory. This work provides a detailed understanding of the role of the edge during the growth progress of hBN, which will be helpful for the production of wafer-scale single-crystalline hBN.
