Conservação convivial: explorando conceitos transformadores para a promoção da (bio)diversidade no Brasil
Authors: Sandroni Laila Thomaz , Ferraz Katia Maria P. Micchi de Barros
Published: December 2023

A necessidade de conservar o que resta da biodiversidade do planeta tornou-se um consenso tácito ao longo dos últimos 40 anos, colocando a questão de forma definitiva no rol da agenda de problemas ambientais globais a serem socialmente resolvidos. Entretanto a decisão sobre os melhores caminhos para a conservação segue sendo alvo de intensas disputas políticas e a necessidade de compatibilização entre efeitos socioculturais e ecossistêmicos na implementação de projetos de conservação permanece atual. O presente artigo tem como intuito apresentar as bases conceituais da proposta da ‘conservação convivial’, identificando contribuições desta para a construção coletiva de alternativas realistas centradas nas dimensões político-econômicas do desafio de promover a diversidade da vida humana e não humana no planeta. Realizamos uma genealogia do contexto discursivo, histórico e atual, onde a proposta emergiu. Em primeiro lugar, situamos a emergência da conservação convivial no contexto da literatura das ‘transformações para sustentabilidade’, destacando especificamente a contribuição das ciências sociais críticas para a transformação da conservação da biodiversidade. Em seguida, apresentamos as características das principais tendências e linhas paradigmáticas que guiaram as ações e políticas para a conservação da biodiversidade historicamente no Brasil e no mundo, a saber, a ‘conservação fortaleza’, a ‘conservação participativa’ e a ‘conservação neoliberal’. Ademais, avaliamos o estado da arte das atualizações destas linhas no debate global atual, ao apresentar as características principais das tendências ‘neoprotecionista’ e da ‘nova conservação’, em seus distanciamentos e aproximações em relação à ‘conservação convivial’. Por fim, apresentamos os princípios da conservação convivial e as ações que materializam a proposta, em sua interface com o contexto brasileiro e latino-americano. Esperamos que esta apresentação sistemática e criteriosa da conservação convivial possa contribuir para a construção de ferramentas transdisciplinares e democráticas de pesquisa e intervenção em conservação da biodiversidade, especialmente no Brasil.

Building a coaching culture: The LEAD framework
Authors: Passmore Jonathan , Crabbe Kristina
Published: December 2023

While much has been written about the importance of coaching cultures, the literature has focused on the benefits of building a coaching culture, with less attention paid to the practical details as on how individuals and organisations move from benefits and conceptual models to practical actions. In this paper we will explore the debate about the nature of a coaching culture, offer a definition for practitioners, explain its significance as part of a wider HR strategy, set out a framework, and provide a 12-step roadmap as a guideline for HR manager and OD change managers to help guide their implementation of a coaching culture.
L’infezione delle idee e le misure di contenimento: l’esempio dell’inventario del 1841 del Convento dei Frati Cappuccini di Lugano
Authors: Cauzzi Chiara
Published: December 2023

L'Archivio provinciale di Lucerna conserva l'inventario del 1841, compilato da Cherubino da Ligornetto, guardiano del Convento, con l’intervento del signor Giacomo Beretta e del signor Pasquale Lurati, in ossequio alla legge del 19 giugno 1803 e alle successive risoluzioni. Il documento contiene al suo interno informazioni riguardanti le caselle dei libri proibiti della Biblioteca dei Cappuccini di Lugano, oggi Biblioteca Salita dei Frati. A differenza delle edizioni espurgate, mostrate durante una visita guidata alla Biblioteca tenutasi il 29 settembre 2022, queste non riportano cancellazioni del testo, ma presentano alcune annotazioni manoscritte, come ad esempio la nota “proibito” apposta sulle carte di guardia anteriori. Ciò dimostra quanto varie possano essere le forme della censura libraria nel corso dei secoli.
Developing education for e-professionalism-Mixed methods evaluation of the impact of an evidence based educational tool for nurses
Authors: Ryan-Blackwell Gemma , Jackson Jessica
Published: December 2023

Background and objective: Research literature has long suggested a need for educational tools that raise awareness of e-professionalism, promote reflective practice and skills to manage what is shared publicly in social media. This study aimed to evaluate the utility of an evidence-based educational tool (Awareness to Action, A2A) on the topic of e-professionalism, designed specifically to raise [personal and professional] awareness about the risks associated with social media platforms and the information that is shared within them.Methods: Realist action research, collecting quantitative and qualitative data via the A2A quiz and focus groups. Results: The A2A quiz was taken by n = 17 participants and n = 8 participants took part in the focus groups. Data showed that the tool was deemed as ‘really’ relevant to practice. Three main themes were found in the data 1) Defining and understanding e-professionalism, 2) The wider context of social media and e-professionalism and 3) The impact of the A2A tool.Discussion and conclusions: Nurses and nursing students are aware of e-professionalism but less able to define it clearly, favouring practical examples of what they consider to be acceptable. The blurring of social-personal-professional boundaries is a challenge when using social media, as is the general nature of social media but the tool was deemed as helpful in navigating these challenges. Educational tools, such as the A2A tool can have a positive impact on nurses, students and - as it is free to access and easy to complete - potentially other healthcare professionals’ behaviours online, fostering reflection and positively changing behaviours/perspectives.
Conjunctival and nasal microbiota evaluation of dogs submitted to dacryocystorhinostomy
Authors: Jardim Joelson Arruda , Moretti Marcela Fernanda , Andrade Alexandre Lima de
Published: December 2023

The purpose of this study was to evaluate changes in the conjunctival and nasal microbiota, in the long term, of dogs undergoing bilateral dacryocystorhinostomy. Twelve male and female dogs (23 eyes), aged between 1 and 10 years, were enrolled in the study, selected on the basis of presentation with epiphora and chromodacryorrhea for at least six months. Cultures of material obtained from the ocular conjunctiva and nasal sinus of all dogs were evaluated to determine the conjunctival and nasal microbiota pre-and postoperatively (at 60, 120, and 240 d). Preoperatively, gram-negative bacteria were identified in the conjunctival microbiota of 66.5% (n=8), while gram-positive bacteria were found in 33.3% (n=4). Throughout the clinical evolution, a balance was found between the presence of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria in the conjunctival microbiota. Pure cultures of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (25%) and Staphylococcus intermedius (25%) were found most frequently. Regarding the conjunctival microbiota, we can conclude that in obstructive diseases, there is a predominance of gram-negative bacteria in the lacrimal system, notably Pseudomonas aeruginosa. This study did not observe an increase in bacterial counts in the nasal cavity through the new surgical pathway to the conjunctival sac.

Published: December 2023

Salmonella enterica can be carried by pigs and can reach the final product and the consumer. Thus, Salmonella reduction strategies along the swine production chain should be studied. In this sense, the objective of the study was to evaluate a subunit vaccine based on secondary antigens administered orally against natural infection in swine farms in Brazil. A field trial study was conducted to estimate the effect of the vaccination on the Salmonella spp. seroprevalence, presence in lymph nodes, and fecal content in commercial pig herds in a vertical integration system belonging to an agroindustry. Furthermore, nMPN, qPCR, and phagocytic activity were performed. There were no significant differences in seroprevalence between groups. The mMPN count of Salmonella spp. in feces was higher in vaccinated group (VG), ranging from 0 to 2.46 log mMPN/g, while in control group (CG) it ranged from 0.0 to 4 log mMPN/g, showing a significant group effect (p<0.05), being confirmed in the qPCR. The activity of phagocytic monocytes was not altered by vaccination on farms. Thus, the oral subunit vaccination strategy at this stage of development did not reduce the spread and amplification of the infection in farms that would impact the prevalence of pigs carrying and shedding Salmonella spp. until slaughter.

Acute Myocardial Infarction as a Sequel of Cocaine Abuse
Authors: Senussi Aaedah A. A.
Published: December 2023

Cocaine is considered the second most frequently used illicit drug and the most frequent cause of drug-related deaths in the world. Worldwide, the majority of cocaine users are younger people between the ages of 16 and 26 years old; and 11% of the general population is thought to have used it at some point in time. Cocaine users primarily administer cocaine orally, intranasally, intravenously, or by smoking it. Cocaine abuse leads to serious complications that involve all body systems, especially the cardiovascular system. In this study, we reported a case of acute myocardial infarction in a young patient without known chronic diseases. Twenty years old male patient presented with acute epigastric pain and repeated vomiting. He has a two-year history of cocaine abuse. All routine investigations were rapidly done; however, the patient collapsed and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) was performed. Clinical outcome: the patient, unfortunately, died after all trials to save his life and was diagnosed with severe myocardial infarction.

Authors: AlQatari Abdullah , Ahmed Ayesha , AlHije Fatima , Sabry Mohammed , Elbawab Hatem
Published: December 2023

Background: Synovial sarcoma is a rare and aggressive soft tissue malignancy most commonly arises from periarticular tissue of the extremities. Although several cases in the literature have reported different origins, primary pulmonary synovial sarcoma (PPSS) is an exceedingly rare and underrecognized entity, accounting for 0.5% of all lung malignancies. Clinical presentation includes chest pain, dyspnea, cough, and hemoptysis. The finding of hemothorax is a rare presentation and was barely reported in the literature. Due to its rarity and aggressive nature, the optimal treatment is unclear, while the mainstay remains surgical resection with chemo- and/or radiation therapy. Objective: To report a case of hemorrhagic effusion subsequently diagnosed with primary pulmonary synovial sarcoma with the main objective of enriching the literature regarding this rare malignancy. Case report: A 52-year-old male smoker with a background of coronary artery disease, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus was referred to our hospital. The patient presented with a history of chest pain, dyspnea, and massive right-sided pleural effusion. Laboratory investigations were unremarkable except for anemia. Chest x-ray showed a complete opacity on the right lower zone with right-sided pleural effusion. Thoracentesis was done and revealed hemorrhagic exudative effusion. Computed tomography (CT) scan showed a right heterogeneous lung mass compressing the medial segment of the middle lobe. Subsequently, the patient underwent bronchoscopy, which showed compression and edema on the right middle lobe bronchus with traces of blood coming from the right lower lobe. The patient underwent a right posterolateral thoracotomy, a fungating mass eroding the medial segment of the middle lobe was resected that was diagnosed as high-grade primary pulmonary synovial sarcoma. Radiotherapy was instituted. The patient died after two years due to recurrence. Conclusion: PPSS is an aggressive disease with poor prognostic outcomes, and Its presentation is almost similar to other lung malignancies. Meanwhile, there is no definitive management guideline, and most management depends on surgical resection if feasible with adjuvant chemo-radiation therapy.

LIFE AS A CHALLENGE. MEANING-BASED APPROACH TO SOLVING THE PROBLEMES OF THE SECOND HALF OF LIFE
Authors: Камелина Т.С. , Хохлова Е.В.
Published: December 2023

В статье рассматривается период в жизни человека после 40 лет, когда некоторые из жизненных задач уже реализованы: получено образование, есть профессиональный опыт, создана семья, дети выросли и возможно уже начали взрослую, самостоятельную жизнь, построен дом, посажено дерево, и происходит встреча человека с собственными задачами жизни, возникает потребность ответить на смыслообразующие вопросы. Этот период характеризуется такими экзистенциальными переживаниями, как растерянность, чувство опустошенности, одиночество, переживание собственной ненужности, непонимание, что дальше, страх старости, усталость от жизни, непримиримость к собственному возрасту и т.д. Проблематика данного кризиса анализируется с точки зрения смыслоцентрированной психотерапии (логотерапии) Виктора Франкла, основанной на объективности смысла, объемном взгляде на личность, опоре на духовный аспект человека и на открытие новых возможностей в любой ситуации.

The article considers the period of the person's life after 40 years, when the person achieved his important goals. He graduated, has the professional experience, started a family, the children have grown up and started their adult, independent life, he built a house, planted a tree, and this is the moment, when the person meets with his own life tasks, there is a need to answer meaning-forming questions. This period is characterized by such existential experiences as confusion, a sense of emptiness, loneliness, experiencing one's own uselessness, fear of old age, fatigue from life, irreconcilability with one's own age, etc. We analyze the problems of this crisis from the point of view of meaningful psychotherapy (logotherapy) Victor Frankl, based on objectivity of meaning, voluminous view of personality, relying on the spiritual aspect of man and on opening up new possibilities in any situation.
THE PHENOMENON OF PAST LIFE MEMORIES IN PSYCHOLOGY OR HOW REGRESSOLOGY WORKS (ADD-UP METHOD)
Authors: Полякова В.В.
Published: December 2023

В статье кратко описывается авторский взгляд на регрессологию, как метод психологии, дающий возможность работы с подсознательными процессами в краткосрочной терапии для выхода на осознание собственной сути человека (осознанности) и достижения социального благополучия личности. Комплексная авторская проработка метода работы с подсознанием через гипнотическую регрессию отвечает на вопрос: как и за счет каких процессов воспоминания прошлых жизней помогают обрести осознанность в настоящем. Используется ADD-UP подход как качественно новая, но уже зарекомендовавшая себя стратегия краткосрочной терапии через работу с подсознательными процессами. Данный подход ориентирован прежде всего на устранение внутренних проблем в ходе одного сеанса регрессии и раскрытие сути человека. Кроме того, в статье затрагивается актуальность темы обучения специалистов психологов методу ведения гипнотических регрессий.

The article briefly describes the author's view of regressology as a method of psychology that makes it possible to work with subconscious processes in short-term therapy to gain awareness of a person's own essence (awareness) and achieve social well-being of the individual. The author's comprehensive study of the method of working with the subconscious mind through hypnotic regression answers the question: how and through what processes memories of past lives help to gain awareness in the present. The ADD-UP method used as a qualitatively new, but already proven strategy of short-term therapy through work with subconscious processes. This approach is primarily focused on eliminating internal problems during a single regression session. In addition, the article touches on the relevance of the topic of training psychologists in the method of conducting hypnotic regressions.
TRAUMATIZED MENTAL ATTACHMENT – ITS INFLUENCE ON LOVE IN INTERPERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF EARLY CHILDHOOD TRAUMA
Authors: Кулиева Е.В.
Published: December 2023

Мы часто не осознаем, как наш ранний опыт, с момента зачатия до трех лет, самый важный период развития ребенка, повлиял и продолжает влиять на нашу способность быть в отношениях с другими людьми. Мы не понимаем, почему боимся близости, неспособны быть в длительных отношениях, основанных на любви, уважении. Ребенок хочет быть желанным для мамы, любимым. Он безусловно любит маму и готов отказаться от своего Я, своих желаний, от своих потребностей, в случае если связь между мамой и им травматична, приносит ему боль. Тем самым он отказывается от своей способности любить, его сердце закрывается от боли, печали, ребенок не может справится с тяжелыми для него чувствами и осознанием, что его не любят, не хотят. Ребенок нуждается в надежной привязанности, близости. Мама своей чуткостью, включенностью дает ребенку чувство психологической защищенности, она для него являются источником безопасности. Так формируется надежная привязанность между мамой и ребенком. Наблюдая за детьми Д. Боулби, обнаружил, что дети, которые страдают эмоциональными проблемами, становятся неспособны устанавливать близкие, продолжительные отношения с окружающими людьми. Страдают от одиночества, испытывают страх, но при этом стремятся и хотят быть в эмоционально близких отношениях. У них нарушается способность любить, так как в их жизни, отсутствовала возможность крепко привязаться к матери. Травмированный такой связью ребенок отказался от тесных человеческих отношений, у него формируется ненадежный тип привязанности. Привязанность, которая формируется в первые годы жизни, является основой, психическим фундаментом, влияющим на все остальные межличностные отношения. Мой доклад посвящен тому, как нарушенная привязанность приводит к неспособности любить с точки зрения ранней детской травмы.

Development of a synchronous motion-tracking and video capture tool for flexible ureteroscopy
Authors: Trac Jessica , Lee Jonguk , Fok Kai-Ho , Carrillo Brian , Farcas Monica
Published: December 2023

Introduction: Hand/instrument motion-tracking in surgical simulation provides valuable data to improve psychomotor skills and can serve as a formative evaluation tool. Motion analysis has been well-studied in laparoscopic surgery; however, there are essentially no studies looking at motion-tracking for flexible ureteroscopy (fURS), a common surgical procedure requiring hand dexterity and 3D spatial awareness. We aimed to design a synchronized motion-tracking and video capture system for fURS capable of collecting objective metrics for use in surgical skills training.
Methods: Motion tracking of the ureteroscope was performed using a motion-tracking platform, inertial measurement units (IMUs), and an optical sensor. Position (x, y, z) and orientation (roll, pitch, yaw) of the ureteroscope handle, lever deflection, and translation of the scope insertion point were collected. Video capture of the operator’s hands was collected with a Raspberry Pi camera. All peripherals were controlled on a Raspberry Pi 4 and synchronized to its system clock.
Results: Our system demonstrated good accuracy in detecting translation of the ureteroscope in the x- and y-axes, and yaw, pitch and roll of the ureteroscope at discrete orientations of 0, ±30, ±60, and ±90 degrees. Unique to fURS, deflection of the lever was captured by the difference in IMU static accelerations with good accuracy. The optical sensor detected translation of the ureteroscope at the insertion point with good precision and an average error of 5.51%.
Conclusions: We successfully developed a motion-tracking and video-capture system capable of collecting motion-analysis parameters unique to fURS. Future studies will focus on establishing the construct validity of this tool.

Introduction: The management of prostate cancer (PCa) is rapidly evolving. Treatment and diagnostic options grow annually, however, high-level evidence for the use of new therapeutics and diagnostics is lacking. In November 2022, the Genitourinary Research Consortium held its 3rd Canadian Consensus Forum (CCF3) to provide guidance on key controversial areas for management of PCa.
Methods: A steering committee of eight multidisciplinary physicians identified topics for discussion and adapted questions from the Advanced Prostate Cancer Consensus Conference 2022 for CCF3. Questions focused on management of metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC); use of novel imaging, germline testing and genomic profiling; and areas of non-consensus from CCF2. Fifty-eight questions were voted on during a live forum, with threshold for “consensus agreement” set at 75%.
Results: The voting panel consisted of 26 physicians: 13 urologists/uro-oncologists, nine medical oncologists, and four radiation oncologists. Consensus was reached for 32 of 58 questions (one ad-hoc). Consensus was seen in the use of local treatment, to not use metastasis-directed therapy for low-volume mCSPC, and to use triplet therapy for synchronous high-volume mCSPC (low prostate-specific antigen). Consensus was also reached on sufficiency of conventional imaging to manage disease, use of germline testing and genomic profiling for metastatic disease, and PARP inhibitors for BRCA-positive prostate cancer.
Conclusions: CCF3 identified consensus agreement and provides guidance on >30 practice scenarios related to management of PCa and nine areas of controversy, which represent opportunities for research and education to improve patient care. Consensus initiatives provide valuable guidance on areas of controversy as clinicians await high-level evidence.

Introduction: The objective of our study was to evaluate the efficacy and durability of GreenLight laser prostatectomy for the management of acute urinary retention (AUR) and chronic urinary retention (CUR) and to determine outcomes compared to patients without preoperative urinary retention (UR).
Methods: We conducted a retrospective study of prospectively collected data from individuals who underwent GreenLight laser prostatectomy at our institution from May 2018 to July 2022. Patient demographics and outcome measures were recorded, including indications for the procedure, median urinary volume drained, or median postvoid residual urine volume (PVR) before catheterization or GreenLight laser prostatectomy. CUR was defined as PVR >300 mL in males able to void and initial catheter drainage >1000 mL in males unable to void in the absence of pain. All patients had postoperative followup visits at one, three, six, and 12 months. Our evaluation included the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), quality-of-life (QoL) assessment, maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax), PVR, and catheter-free status.
Results: One hundred sixty-eight males who underwent GreenLight laser prostatectomy were included in our study. The UR group consisted of 88 patients (50 AUR and 38 CUR), and the lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) group was comprised of 80 individuals. There were no statistically significant differences between the AUR and CUR subgroups regarding demographics. The UR group had a significantly higher age and a significantly higher postoperative catheterization length (p=0.000 and 0.000, respectively) compared to the LUTS cohort. The CUR subgroup had a significantly higher PVR at one, three, and six months compared to the AUR subgroup, although other outcome measures were similar between the two cohorts. During three- and 6-month followup visits, the UR group had a significantly higher PVR than the LUTS cohort. At 12 months postoperative, the LUTS group had a higher catheter-free rate than the UR group (p=0.001). The successful first trial of void (TOV) rate for the UR and LUTS groups were 83% and 80%, respectively. At 12 months followup, the catheter-free rate for the UR and LUTS cohorts was 87.5% and 100%, respectively.
Conclusions: GreenLight laser prostatectomy is an effective and durable treatment for UR with a high catheter-free rate and comparable outcomes when performed to manage LUTS.
Late Oligocene atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations reconstructed from fossil leaves using stomatal index
Authors: Tesfamichael Tekie
Published: December 2023

Ancient atmospheric CO2 can be reconstructed using various climate proxies; stomata from fossil leaves are one of the climate proxies that provide critical information about past climatic conditions of the Earth. Exceptionally well–preserved fossil leaves found in overbank deposits in Chilga of Northwest Ethiopia were used to estimate late Oligocene atmospheric CO2 values using stomatal index. The age of the fossils, 206Pb/238U: 27.23 ± 0.03 Ma, was determined from zircons in an ash deposit comprising the matrix deposited contemporaneously with the fossil leaves. Stomatal indices were calculated from both the fossil leaves and nearest living relatives of the fossils. Corresponding atmospheric CO2 values for the nearest living relatives of the fossils were assigned from historical records from the Mauna Loa Observatory. This produces a calibrating curve that shows variation of atmospheric CO2 over time, and late Oligocene atmospheric CO2 values were quantified from the calibrating curve. The quantified late Oligocene atmospheric CO2 values are about 343 ± 11 ppm which show a 12 % decrease when they are quantified using a leaf gas exchange method. This is consistent with the idea that stomatal–index method underestimates CO2 values compared to the leaf gas exchange method. The late Oligocene was colder than both its preceding Eocene and its following Miocene epochs, and the results are incongruent with the cold Oligocene period. These results for this particular geologic time provide opportunity to examine how plants responded to climate changes in the past and have important implications for the study of current and future climate changes.

Published: December 2023

Inferior vena cava filters are a valid option in treating patients with deep vein thrombosis of the lower limbs with contraindication or failure of anticoagulation or in cases of recurrent pulmonary embolism under adequate levels of anticoagulation. It should be recognized that, like any procedure, the implantation of these devices is not without complications, and migration is a rare but potentially severe late complication. The authors present the case of migration of a vena cava filter into the right ventricle in a 54-year-old female patient with a history of arterial hypertension and previous hospitalization for bilateral infrapatellar DVT.
The correlation of spot urinary protein-to-creatinine ratio with 24-h urinary protein excretion in various glomerulopathies

BACKGROUND

Proteinuria is an important and well-known biomarker of many forms of kidney injury. Its quantitation is of particular importance in the diagnosis and management of glomerular diseases. Its quantification can be done by several methods. Among these, the measurement of 24-h urinary protein excretion is the gold standard method. However, it is cumbersome, time-consuming, and inconvenient for patients and is not completely foolproof. Many alternative methods have been tested over time albeit with conflicting results. Among the latter, the measurement of urine protein-to-creatinine ratio (uPCR) in single-voided urinary samples is widely used. The majority of studies found a good correlation between uPCR in single urine samples with 24-h urinary protein estimation, whereas others did not.

AIM

To investigate the correlation of spot uPCR with 24-h urinary protein estimation in patients suffering from different forms of glomerulopathies at a single large-volume nephrological center in Pakistan.

METHODS

This cross-sectional, observational study was conducted at the Department of Nephrology, Sindh Institute of Urology and Transplantation, Karachi, Pakistan from September 2017 to March 2018. All newly presenting adult patients with proteinuria who were being investigated for suspected glomerulonephritis and persistent proteinuria with ages between 18 to 60 years were enrolled. All patients were given detailed advice regarding 24-h urine collection starting at 7:00 AM for total protein and creatinine excretion estimations. A spot urine sample was collected the next day at the time of submission of a 24-h urine sample for measuring uPCR along with a blood sample. The data of patients were collected in a proforma. SPSS version 20.0 was used for statistical analysis.

RESULTS

A total of 157 patients were included. Their mean age was 30.45 ± 12.11 years. There were 94 (59.8%) males and 63 (40.2%) females. The mean 24-h urinary protein excretion was 3192.78 ± 1959.79 mg and the mean spot uPCR was 3.16 ± 1.52 in all patients. A weak but significant correlation was observed between spot uPCR and 24-h urinary protein excretion (r = 0.342, P = 0.01) among all patients. On subgroup analysis, a slightly better correlation was found in patients older than 47 years (r = 0.78), and those with body mass index > 25 kg/m2 (r = 0.45). The Bland and Altman's plot analysis comparing the differences between spot uPCR and 24-h protein measurement also showed a wide range of the limits of agreement between the two methods.

CONCLUSION

Overall, the results from this study showed a significant and weakly positive correlation between spot uPCR and 24-h urinary protein estimation in different forms of glomerulopathies. The agreement between the two methods was also poor. Hence, there is a need for careful interpretation of the ratio in an unselected group of patients with kidney disease.
Determination of the Changes in Airborne Ba and Mn Concentrations in Düzce City Center in the Last 40 Years with the Help of Cedrus atlantica Annual Rings
Authors: USLU Sümeyya , YİĞİT Nurcan
Published: December 2023

Heavy metals are pollutants that pose a great threat to humans, other living things, and the ecosystem. All barium (Ba) compounds, one of the most dangerous and harmful heavy metals, are poisonous. Manganese (Mn) is a harmful heavy metal that can cause hallucinations, fatigue, insomnia, weakness, forgetfulness, nerve damage, Parkinson's, and lung embolism. Therefore, observing the changes in Ba and Mn concentrations in the air is essential.

This study aimed to determine the change of Ba and Mn heavy metals in the Cedrus atlantica tree based on direction, period, and organ. As a result, the annual rings of Cedrus atlantica show that the transfer of both heavy metals into the wood of Cedrus atlantica was limited. Therefore, the species is a suitable biomonitor that can be used to monitor the changes in Ba and Mn concentrations in the air. In addition, the study results revealed that the concentrations of both elements in the outer barks are quite high, and Ba pollution is primarily caused by traffic.
