Authors: Teixeira Alexandre
Published: August 2022

It was used 200 broilers of the free-range chicken strain, distributed in a completely randomized design, in a 2x2 factorial scheme, two phosphates (dicalcium phosphate and monodicalcium phosphate) and two granulometries (Powder and Microgranulated), with five replications, with ten individuals per experimental unit. The animals received the following treatments: PDP: basal diet with dicalcium phosphate 18% powder; MDP: basal diet with dicalcium phosphate 18% microgranules; PPM: basal diet with phosphate monodicalcium 20% powder; and MMP: basal diet with 20% monodicalcium phosphate microgranules. It was evaluated the performance parameters of the individuals in the interval from 23 up to 38 days of age. It was collected daily, in order to evaluate the chemical composition and the granulometry of the leftovers of the rations in the feeder plates, being that these samples were organized in three (3) intervals: from day 23 up to 28; from day 29 up to 33; and from day 34 up to 38 days of age. It was not interaction between the sources and the granulometries of phosphates in all parameters of performance. There was interaction between sources and granulometry of the phosphates in the parameters of crude protein (CP), in the interval from 23 up to 28 days of age, in which the concentration of CP was higher in the feeder of the treatments containing MMP and higher values of phosphorus (P), calcium (Ca), iron (Fe) and medium particles in the ration of the feeder containing phosphate microgranules (FM). In the periods from 29 to 38 days of age, lower values of CP and higher values of P and Ca were observed in the rations of feeders containing FM, as well as higher values of Fe in the period from 34 to 38 days. In this last period, there was also an increase in the fineness modulus, an increase in the mean geometric diameter and higher values of medium particles for MDP, but for fine particles the highest values were for PDP. It was concluded that the sources and granulometry of the phosphates of the feed did not affect the performance of free-range chicken lines. However, the use of granular phosphates can promote the segregation of particles within the feeders.

Authors: De Souza Larissa
Published: August 2022

Exungulation is characterized by processes of separation of the hull from the sub-horny tissue, leading to loss of the nail capsule. The affected animal loses limb function, being vulnerable to more severe complications if not treated properly. The aim of this study was to report a case of exungulation in a crossbred horse, attended at the University Hospital of Veterinary Medicine of the Federal University of Recôncavo of Bahia. The animal, estimated to be three years old, weighing 210 kg, was treated with a history of traumatic injury of approximately 15 cm in the billet and quarter region, and with avulsion of the hoof of the right pelvic member. Upon examination of the locomotor system, the animal presented grade 4 lameness, podo-dermal tissue with areas of necrosis, with edema, signs of infection and the presence of myiasis, but with preservation of the coronary border and part of the beads and ranch. The third phalanx was exposed and blackened in color. Therapy based on local cleaning, immersion of the limb in potassium permanganate solution, use of antibiotics and local healing based on penicillin G benzathine, penicillin G procaine, dihydro-streptomycin and urea (Ganadol® - Zoetis) and bandage were instituted. Antimicrobial therapy was instituted with penicillin (20,000 IU/kg) every 24 hours - Bravecilin® - IM SID in total of three applications, gentamicin sulfate (2 mg/kg) - (Gentasil®) subcutaneously for five days and anti-inflammatory therapy was performed with phenylbutazone (2.2 mg/kg) – (Equipalazone®) - BID in the first three days, followed by the use of meloxicam 2% (0.6 mg) SID for 7 days. After 45 days, an increase in the area of infection was observed and we opted for three applications of 1g of ceftriaxone by regional infusion at intervals of 48 hours. Supplementation was performed by oral applications with biotin, DL-methionine and liquid zinc - Bio-Hoof®. Although the prognosis of exungulation in horses is mostly unfavorable, with costly and prolonged treatment, the clinical condition observed in the horse in this case allowed conservative therapy to be instituted, with corrective casquating after the eighth month of treatment. The animal was discharged after 239 days of hospitalization.

Authors: Ferreira Tiago Cunha , Ramos Santos Lívia , Machado de Carvalho Victor
Published: August 2022

Dermatophytosis is an infectious disease caused mainly by the fungi Microsporum canis and Trichophyton mentagrophytes that usually affect the superficial layer of the skin. It is an anthropozoonosis and has variable clinical signs such as alopecia, erythema, dyskeratinization and pruritus, which is present in only 50% of cases. For the diagnosis, several complementary tests can be used, such as a wood lamp together with cytological examination of the skin, direct examination of the hair and fungal culture. In this report, a female Yorkshire canine had a history of persistent infection despite the recommended topical and systemic therapy. Physical examination revealed alopecia and hypotrichosis in the nasal bridge, edges of the outer ears and phalanges region, in addition to increased abdominal volume with telangiectasia. In the cytological evaluation, structures compatible with fungal arthroconidia and hyphae were observed, the wood lamp examination also showed fluorescence, and hairs were also collected for culture. Treatment with itraconazole was started, but there was a recurrence after stopping the use of the antifungal. Hormonal tests were performed and hyperadrenocorticism (HAC) was detected. Thus, the use of trilostane together with the antifungal was started, with a significant improvement in the clinical picture and, after treatment, no fungal elements were found in the cytology and fungal culture.

Background: Dementia is a priority public health issue due to its high prevalence worldwide and its economic, social, and health impact. However, there are few reports in Mexico based on formal tests and with a clinical approach based on the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th edition (DSM-5). Objective: This study estimates the prevalence of the main types of dementia among elderly people living in the community in Mexico City. Methods: A population-based, two-step study was conducted, including 6,204 elderly individuals aged 60 or above with in-home assessment. All participants were screened for cognitive impairment; those who presented some cognitive problem underwent a standardized neurological examination. Each diagnosis was based on the criteria for dementia in the DSM-5, and the final consensus diagnosis of dementia was determined by an expert panel. Results: The global estimated prevalence of dementia in the Mexican population was 7.8% met the criteria for Alzheimer’s disease, 4.3% for vascular dementia, and 2.1% for mixed dementia. The prevalence of dementia was higher in women than in men (15.3% versus 12.5%, respectively). Conclusion: These results provide evidence to propose strategies for Latin American countries where dementia represents a challenge due to the heterogeneity of the populations and socioeconomic disparities, requiring early diagnosis and at the first levels of care.

Background: Dementia is one of the main triggers for care dependency among older adults who are predominantly cared for at home by relatives. To provide support in the care situation, health systems need valid information about the central needs of the affected people. Objective: The present study aimed to develop a research instrument to assess the most important needs of people with dementia and their family caregivers. Methods: The development of the ‘Dementia Assessment of Service Needs (DEMAND)’ took place within the project ‘Digital Dementia Registry Bavaria (digiDEM Bayern)’. A focus group and an online survey with dementia experts were conducted to identify the most relevant support services and to develop the design of the instrument. The questionnaire was deployed in the digiDEM baseline data collection. Participants were asked to evaluate the comprehensibility of the questionnaire. Readability was assessed using the Flesch reading ease score. Results: Seventeen experts participated in the focus group and 59 people in the online survey. The final questionnaire included 13 support services. One hundred eighty-three participants (50 people with dementia and 133 family caregivers) completed the questionnaire at baseline. The mean comprehensibility score was 3.6 (SD = 2.3). The Flesch reading ease score result was 76. Conclusion: A research instrument could be developed, enabling people with dementia and family caregivers to directly express their individual needs for specific support services. Results show that the DEMAND is easy to understand and short in execution. Therefore, supply gaps can be identified and transformed into a specific health care plan.
Associations Between Sub-Threshold Amyloid-β Deposition, Cortical Volume, and Cognitive Function Modulated by APOE ɛ4 Carrier Status in Cognitively Normal Older Adults
Authors: Kang Dong Woo , Wang Sheng-Min , Um Yoo Hyun , Kim Nak Young , Lee Chang Uk , Lim Hyun Kook
Published: August 2022

Background: There has been renewed interest in the deteriorating effects of sub-threshold amyloid-β (Aβ) accumulation in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Despite evidence suggesting a synergistic interaction between the APOE ɛ4 allele and Aβ deposition in neurodegeneration, few studies have investigated the modulatory role of this allele in sub-threshold Aβ deposition during the preclinical phase. Objective: We aimed to explore the differential effect of the APOE ɛ4 carrier status on the association between sub-threshold Aβ deposition, cortical volume, and cognitive performance in cognitively normal older adults (CN). Methods: A total of 112 CN with sub-threshold Aβ deposition was included in the study. Participants underwent structural magnetic resonance imaging, [18F] flutemetamol PET-CT, and a neuropsychological battery. Potential interactions between APOE ɛ4 carrier status, Aβ accumulation, and cognitive function for cortical volume were assessed with whole-brain voxel-wise analysis. Results: We found that greater cortical volume was observed with higher regional Aβ deposition in the APOE ɛ4 carriers, which could be attributed to an interaction between the APOE ɛ4 carrier status and regional Aβ deposition in the posterior cingulate cortex/precuneus. Finally, the APOE ɛ4 carrier status-neuropsychological test score interaction demonstrated a significant effect on the gray matter volume of the left middle occipital gyrus. Conclusion: There might be a compensatory response to initiating Aβ in APOE ɛ4 carriers during the earliest AD stage. Despite its exploratory nature, this study offers some insight into recent interests concerning probabilistic AD modeling, focusing on the modulating role of the APOE ɛ4 carrier status during the preclinical period.

Authors: Mohanty Diksha , Schmitt Philipp , Dixon Laura , Holiday Victoria , Hedera Peter
Published: August 2022

Background: The coronavirus pandemic saw technology evolve as outpatient clinics faced restriction of in-person visits. Reliance on telemedicine using two-way audio-video communication significantly increased. Telemedicine was observed to be convenient, cost-effective, reduced no-show rates, and fostered sustained engagement. Enhanced flexibility from short notice scheduling benefitted patients and their caregivers. Greater time value was perceived by patients, and reduced reliance on caregivers. Disadvantages included barriers of access to internet connectivity or equipment. Objective: We aimed to retrospectively survey patients with Huntington’s disease (HD) seen via telehealth in our HDSA Center for Excellence Multidisciplinary clinic. We evaluated usability, learnability, interface quality, reliability, and future use. Methods: This qualitative survey used the 21-item Telehealth Usability Questionnaire. Close-ended responses ranged from strongly disagree to strongly agree scored on Likert scale (1 through 7). Averages were calculated to examine attitudes towards telemedicine. Spearman correlation test was performed to detect attitude biases between patients and caregivers. Results: Respondents were more likely than not to strongly agree with survey statements. Average attitude score of 5.92 (range 2.95-7.00) suggested favorability and improved convenience when telehealth was used in complement to in-person visits, without detriment to patient-provider communication. Spearman correlation coefficient between patient and family/caregiver groups was 0.023, which is below the cutoff of 0.344 for a = 0.05 at N = 24. This suggests there was no bias between patient and caregiver attitudes. Conclusion: This study demonstrated telehealth is favored by caregivers and patients with HD. This population with specific physical, cognitive and psychiatric needs can benefit from adaptive systems that enhance compliance.
Implementation and evaluation of a fuzzy-based system for determining stress feeling level in VANETs: Effect of driving experience and history on driver stress

Drivers are held responsible for the vast majority of traffic accidents. While most of the errors that cause these accidents are involuntary, a significant number of them are caused by irresponsible driving behaviors, which must be utterly preventable. Irresponsible driving, in addition, is often associated with the stress drivers experience while driving. We have previously implemented an intelligent system based on fuzzy logic for determining driver’s stress in Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs), called Fuzzy-based System for Determining the Stress Feeling Level (FSDSFL), considering the driver’s impatience, the behavior of other drivers, and the traffic condition as input parameters. In this work, we present an Improved FSDSFL (IFSDSFL) system, which considers the driving experience and history as an additional input. We show through simulations the effect that driving experience and history and the other parameters have on the determination of the stress feeling level and demonstrate some actions that can be performed when the stress exceeds certain levels.

Making the correct decision in a real-time situation is extremely difficult. In today’s technological age, computational methods are available, and they may assist the company’s top leaders in making sound decisions and strengthening the organization. There are several techniques for dealing with decision-making problems, one of which is the use of Hendecagonal fuzzy numbers. These fuzzy numbers are used to represent the ambiguity or ambiguity of eleven linguistic variables. To address these shortcomings, we use the ranking method, relativity function, and comparison matrix to aid in decision-making because we have eleven constraints (linguistic variables) that can be expressed in a hendecagonal fuzzy number matrix (HdcgFNM). The raking technique, relativity function, and comparison matrix were evaluated using a case study.
Florida Bears and Beekeeping
Authors: Sanford Malcolm T. , Ellis James D.
Published: August 2022

The Florida black bear (Ursus americanus floridanus) is a minor predator of beehives in Florida with the potential to cause major destruction. Large-scale urban and agricultural development inexorably reduces prime bear habitat each year. This habitat also contains excellent bee forage, and so bears and bees will sometimes come in contact, thus resulting in bear predation. This revised 2-page fact sheet was written by Malcolm T. Sanford and James D. Ellis, and published by the UF Department of Entomology and Nematology, August 2012.

Florida MarketMaker and Florida Food Connect: Using E-commerce to Enhance Seafood Marketing in Florida
Authors: Adams Charles M. , Barker William
Published: August 2022

While the state and many non-profit organizations provide information to the Florida seafood and aquaculture industry to help them market their catch, they offer few resources facilitating e-commerce. As a business tool, e-commerce can help expedite the buying and selling of seafood products among consumers, producers, and other businesses within the food industry value chain. E-commerce is a new promotional strategy producers can use to improve their marketing efficiency. For example, the affiliated websites Florida MarketMaker and Florida Food Connect are designed to enhance the online presence for the Florida seafood industry. Web portals such as these increase the visibility of seafood businesses by allowing dealers to create a searchable online profile attracting more customers seeking locally sourced seafood.
