How to achieve high-quality development of SRDI enterprises—A study of the TOE framework-based configuration
Authors: Zhang Zhihong , Feng Hua , Wang Lulu , Yang Lingyun
Published: June 2024

The high-quality development of SRDI enterprises is crucial for China to overcome critical technological bottlenecks and thereby achieve technological independence and strength. However, the factors driving the high-quality development of SRDI enterprises are not isolated elements, but rather a complex system of interconnected antecedents. This study employs the TOE framework and fuzzy set Qualitative Comparative Analysis (fsQCA) with 141 Chinese SRDI “little giant” listed companies as samples to explore how various factors contribute to their high-quality development. The findings indicate: (1) No single factor is necessary for SRDI enterprises’ high-quality development. (2) It is the synergy of multiple factors, in various combinations, that drives their high-quality development. (3) Technological innovation plays a key role in these pathways; SRDI enterprises should leverage their resources and capabilities for a synergistic technology-organization-environment match, selecting the most suitable development path. The results of this study not only enrich our understanding of the factors influencing SRDI enterprises’ high-quality development but also offer insights for both the enterprises and government policy-making.
Trajectory-driven computational analysis for element characterization in Trypanosoma cruzi video microscopy

Published: June 2024

Optical microscopy videos enable experts to analyze the motion of several biological elements. Particularly in blood samples infected with Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi), microscopy videos reveal a dynamic scenario where the parasites’ motions are conspicuous. While parasites have self-motion, cells are inert and may assume some displacement under dynamic events, such as fluids and microscope focus adjustments. This paper analyzes the trajectory of T. cruzi and blood cells to discriminate between these elements by identifying the following motion patterns: collateral, fluctuating, and pan–tilt–zoom (PTZ). We consider two approaches: i) classification experiments for discrimination between parasites and cells; and ii) clustering experiments to identify the cell motion. We propose the trajectory step dispersion (TSD) descriptor based on standard deviation to characterize these elements, outperforming state-of-the-art descriptors. Our results confirm motion is valuable in discriminating T. cruzi of the cells. Since the parasites perform the collateral motion, their trajectory steps tend to randomness. The cells may assume fluctuating motion following a homogeneous and directional path or PTZ motion with trajectory steps in a restricted area. Thus, our findings may contribute to developing new computational tools focused on trajectory analysis, which can advance the study and medical diagnosis of Chagas disease.

Published: June 2024

Malaria is a deadly disease that is transmitted through mosquito bites. Microscopists use a microscope to examine thin blood smears at high magnification (1000x) to identify parasites in red blood cells (RBCs). Estimating parasitemia is essential in determining the severity of the Plasmodium falciparum infection and guiding treatment. However, this process is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and subject to variation, which can directly affect patient outcomes. In this retrospective study, we compared three methods for measuring parasitemia from a collection of anonymized thin blood smears of patients with Plasmodium falciparum obtained from the Clinical Department of Parasitology-Mycology, National Reference Center (NRC) for Malaria in Paris, France. We first analyzed the impact of the number of field images on parasitemia count using our framework, MALARIS, which features a top-classifier convolutional neural network (CNN). Additionally, we studied the variation between different microscopists using two manual techniques to demonstrate the need for a reliable and reproducible automated system. Finally, we included thin blood smear images from an additional 102 patients to compare the performance and correlation of our system with manual microscopy and flow cytometry. Our results showed strong correlations between the three methods, with a coefficient of determination between 0.87 and 0.92.
La educación de calidad en la Agenda 2030
Authors: García de Fez Sandra
Published: June 2024

La calidad aplicada a la educación se remonta a mitad del siglo pasado y desde entonces se ha naturalizado su uso. Gobiernos e instituciones y, actualmente, la Agenda 2030 han convertido la educación de calidad en un principio básico para todos los sistemas educativos del mundo. Conceptualizar la calidad en el ámbito escolar se ha resuelto mediante una aceptación general en detrimento del cuestionamiento sobre la idoneidad de utilizar términos mercantilizadores y de origen empresarial para evaluar el desarrollo escolar de un país. Igualmente, someter a unos mismos parámetros realidades escolares tan distintas en aras de tasar la calidad educativa dificulta una observación equitativa y enraizada en el territorio y sus circunstancias. Este artículo analiza el uso que desde entidades como la Organización de Naciones Unidas se hace de la calidad en educación y su inclusión en los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible, de tal modo que se reflexiona sobre las acciones y políticas educativas dirigidas a alcanzar los estándares de éxito desde los organismos internacionales.

En este artículo, exploraremos el papel crucial de la inteligencia artificial, particularmente los Modelos de Lenguaje Grandes (LLMs), en la evolución de la educación en salud(1).

En la era digital contemporánea, la inteligencia artificial (IA) ha surgido como una fuerza de cambio en múltiples ámbitos, y la educación en salud no queda al margen de esta transformación. Este artículo tiene como propósito examinar minuciosamente el papel esencial de la inteligencia artificial, centrándose especialmente en los Modelos de Lenguaje Grandes (LLMs), en el desarrollo de la educación en salud(1).

La inteligencia artificial, o IA, se refiere a la capacidad de las máquinas para realizar tareas que normalmente requieren la intervención humana. En el contexto de la educación en salud, este avance tecnológico ha demostrado ser una herramienta invaluable. Desde diagnósticos médicos más precisos hasta la formación de profesionales de la salud, la IA ha dejado una huella significativa(1).

Los Modelos de Lenguaje Grandes son una categoría especializada de inteligencia artificial que se enfoca en comprender y generar lenguaje humano de manera avanzada. En el ámbito educativo de la salud, estos modelos han resultado ser un cambio de paradigma al proporcionar una comprensión más profunda y contextualizada de los conceptos médicos(2).

Es esencial explorar cómo la inteligencia artificial, en particular los Modelos de Lenguaje Grandes, han evolucionado y continuamente están dando forma a la educación en salud. Desde su introducción, estos modelos han influido en la forma en que los estudiantes y profesionales de la salud acceden, asimilan y aplican conocimientos médicos(2).

En resumen, este artículo se sumergirá en los meandros de la inteligencia artificial y los Modelos de Lenguaje Grandes, desarrollando su papel revolucionario en la educación en salud. Se examinarán casos prácticos, beneficios concretos y desafíos éticos para proporcionar una visión completa de cómo la IA está transformando la manera en que aprendemos y enseñamos en el campo de la salud(2).

Anthracnose, caused by Colletotrichum spp., is an important disease of atemoya that can infect and cause damage to different plant organs. The symptoms include foliar anthracnose, flower abortion, branch tip bleaching, and necrotic lesions on fruits. Knowing the etiology of this disease is essential for properly developing management strategies. Therefore, this study aimed to identify Colletotrichum species associated with atemoya in the Northeast region of Brazil, based on multi-locus phylogeny and morphological analyses, to better understand the etiology of anthracnose in this plant species. The Colletotrichum isolates were obtained from symptomatic leaves and branches of atemoya collected in commercial fields in Vitória da Conquista (Bahia), Palmeira dos Índios and Rio Largo (Alagoas), located in northeast Brazil. The initial analysis of the partial sequences of the GAPDH gene was performed with nineteen Colletotrichum isolates obtained from leaves and branches of atemoya trees with typical anthracnose symptoms. Seventeen isolates were grouped in the gloeosporioides complex and two in the boninense complex. Therefore, eleven isolates were submitted to concatenated phylogenetic analyses with the genes GAPDH, TUB2, and ITS region of the rDNA to confirm the identity of the isolates at the species level. The species C. theobromicola, C. siamense, C. fructicola and C. karstii were identified and are associated with atemoya anthracnose in the Northeast region of Brazil.

Authors: Alves Hellen Cristina de Oliveira
Published: June 2024

O propósito deste estudo é analisar as produções científicas sobre o diagnóstico tardio do Transtorno do Espectro Autista. Para realizar essa pesquisa, foram consultados artigos nas bibliotecas virtuais Scielo e BvS, utilizando descritores específicos. Observou-se uma escassez de material disponível sobre o assunto em língua portuguesa. Isso ocorre devido ao foco predominante da comunidade científica no diagnóstico precoce de crianças com Transtorno do Espectro Autista, o que tem impactos negativos na qualidade de vida dos pacientes na fase adulta. É crucial sensibilizar e conscientizar os profissionais de saúde para que considerem a possibilidade de diagnóstico de transtorno do espectro autista em adultos. Isso é essencial para atender a uma parcela significativa da população que pode estar vivenciando os desafios associados ao TEA durante a vida adulta.

O manejo do diabetes em crianças deve levar em consideração as principais diferenças entre crianças de várias idades e adultos. Os enfermeiros desempenham um papel significativo na detecção do diabetes em vários ambientes de assistência à saúde, resultando em diagnósticos rápidos e início imediato do tratamento. Objetivou-se com esse estudo analisar a incidência de crianças e adolescentes com dependência em insulina no município Almenara -MG entre 2020 a 2023. O trabalho trata-se um estudo qualitativo exploratório descritivo. A partir da coleta de dados por meio de acesso em banco de dados disponibilizados virtualmente no sistema oficial de notificação e-SUS APS- Secretaria de Atenção Primária à Saúde, no período compreendido entre os anos 2020 a 2023, os dados demográficos para categorizar essa pesquisa foram: Sexo e Idade. Realizou-se uma análise qualitativa acerca da temática. O levantamento dedados ocorreu por meio de dados obtidos com bases eletrônicas como Scientific Eletronic Library Online (SCIELO), Google Acadêmico, e demais artigos publicados pela organização mundial de saúde (OMS). Sendo limitado o período de 1990 a 2021, utilizou-se artigos publicados no idioma português e inglês. Os resultados demonstram que, a idade de maior incidência do DM está entre os 10 e 14 anos e uma proporção similar entre meninas e meninos. Em 2020 verificou-se apenas dois casos de crianças menores de 01 ano, portadoras de DM, esses casos são simultaneamente enfrentados por uma criança do sexo masculino e outra do sexo feminino. Com o estudo evidencia-se que o número de diagnósticos recentes de diabetes DM1 em crianças e adolescentes é substancial. São necessários mais dados sociodemográficos para ampliar os estudos na região estudada.
Modelos curriculares da educação ambiental (EA)
Authors: De Gregorio Aline , Lorencini Júnior Álvaro
Published: June 2024

Esta pesquisa tem como objetivo investigar as tendências curriculares para a EA no Ensino Superior, a partir de análises das publicações veiculadas na Revista Eletrônica do Mestrado em Educação Ambiental-REMEA. Identificamos que os entraves ao desenvolvimento da EA se referem, principalmente, ao engessamento dos currículos, à incipiência e superficialidade da EA nos documentos e à desconexão das realidades socioambientais nas quais as instituições se encontram inseridas. Quanto aos modelos curriculares, os debates têm apontado com maior ênfase à transversalidade, devido às características ampla, polissêmica e híbrida que circunscrevem a EA, tornando-a incompatível com o aprisionamento de saberes em uma estrutura disciplinar. Portanto, as perspectivas futuras convergem à adoção de uma EA transversal oferecendo maiores possibilidades para o desenvolvimento do campo de modo colaborativo e interdisciplinar, à medida que convoca os educadores ao cumprimento das responsabilidades social e ambiental, a partir dos diferentes saberes que desenvolvem com os educandos.
Supervisão de Casos de Traumas e de Estruturas Narcísicas: Os Desafios para o Campo da Análise Bioenergética
Authors: Macedo Júnior Gefferson Eusébio de
Published: June 2024

Este artigo de pesquisa bibliográfica busca trazer as temáticas do trauma e do narcisismo presentes nos casos de supervisão da clínica da análise bioenergética e suas vertentes ancoradas também na psicanálise e abordagens correlatas. Isso se deve ao fato de uma quantidade crescente de casos que chegam para a supervisão com desafios clínicos trazidos pelos terapeutas do que na clínica psicanalítica chamamos de “pacientes de difícil acesso”(ZIMERMAN, 1999 - p. 273), até as questões vinculadas aos traumas durante os processos de desenvolvimento. Este trabalho buscará trazer, de forma estruturada, uma base bibliográfica que ancore a questão narcísica e vinculadas às situações de trauma nos escritos já delineados por Freud, Reich e Lowen, passando por textos mais atuais que possam corroborar com uma visão que possibilite ampliar a escuta de supervisores e terapeutas para casos tão desafiadores. Além dessa ancoragem, a intenção é apontar as possibilidades que o campo da psicoterapia corporal pode ampliar a partir de diversas abordagens para casos que trazem estruturas tão clivadas clinicamente que, muitas vezes, apenas o trabalho num setting clínico não consegue dar o suporte necessário.
Parental Education and Gadget Knowledge: Their Impact on Gadget Use Behavior in Children Aged 5-6 Years
Authors: Andika Sari Diah , Damayanti Anita , Bahfen Munifah , Zulhaini Luthfia
Published: June 2024

This study investigates the relationship between parental education levels, gadget knowledge, and the gadget use behavior of children aged 5-6 years. Using a quantitative correlational research methodology, data were collected via a structured questionnaire from 168 parents across Indonesia. The questionnaire assessed parental education, knowledge of gadget use, and children's gadget use behavior. Results showed no significant correlation between parents' education levels and children's gadget use behavior. However, a low positive correlation was identified between parents' gadget knowledge and children's gadget use behavior. This suggests that parents with higher gadget knowledge can more effectively manage their children's gadget use. This finding underscores the importance of enhancing parental understanding of digital technology to foster healthier gadget use among young children. Limitations of the study include reliance on self-reported data and a predominantly maternal sample, which may only partially represent the broader population. Additionally, the cross-sectional nature of the study limits the ability to conclude long-term effects. Future research should involve more diverse samples, consider additional variables such as socio-economic status and cultural factors, and employ longitudinal designs to explore the long-term impacts of parental gadget knowledge on children's development. These steps are essential to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the factors influencing children's gadget use behavior and to inform strategies aimed at promoting healthier digital habits among young children.

I will not let you go, unless you bless me (Gen. 32:26)
Authors: Macek Ondřej
Published: June 2024

In this article I point out the possibilities of a blessing in a society which does not look favourably upon religious institutions and traditions. Across history and religions, people come to realize that they are only partially able to provide for their own well-being and secure the foundations of their lives. They therefore need hope, love, energy for a good life, and a protective and invigorating force: in other words, blessings. The Bible sees blessing as an expression of continuous divine action. By their willingness to be blessed, the blessed confess their trust in God and present their needs to Him. A blessing can be part of a ritual game that helps structure life in an unstructured reality. A blessing is a space for an encounter between God and people, but also for their encounter with tradition.
Dietrich Bonhoeffers „religionslose“ Evangelisation: Formate seiner ökumenischen Spiritualität und die Oxfordgruppenbewegung
Authors: Reller Jobst
Published: June 2024

Dietrich Bonhoeffer (1906–1945), made a martyr by the Nazi German regime in 1945, is still widely read because of his ideas: the proclamation of Christian faith in a non-religious comprehen-sive worldly way, a Bible oriented spirituality of silence, confession with a political horizon. In Norwegian sources the profile of the US based Oxford Group Movement, founded by the Lutheran pastor Frank Buchman (1878–1961; later: Moral Rearmament, today: Initiatives of Change) has been identified as an influential revival movement appe-aling to political elites in Europe in the 1930’s. The article tries to show to which extent Bonhoeffer may have shaped his ideas on preaching and spirituality in confrontation with Buchman’s movement. The Nor-wegian author Ronald Fangen (1895–1946) plays a substantial role for the profile of the Oxford Group Movement in Norway.

Simple 𝑝-adic Lie groups with abelian Lie algebras
Authors: Caprace Pierre-Emmanuel , Minasyan Ashot , Osin Denis
Published: June 2024

For each prime 𝑝 and each positive integer 𝑑, we construct the first examples of second countable, topologically simple 𝑝-adic Lie groups of dimension 𝑑 whose Lie algebras are abelian.
This answers several questions of Glöckner and Caprace–Monod.
The proof relies on a generalization of small cancellation methods that applies to central extensions of acylindrically hyperbolic groups.
On the variation of the Einstein–Hilbert action in pseudohermitian geometry

In this paper, we compute the first and second variation of the normalized Einstein–Hilbert functional on CR manifolds.
We characterize critical points as pseudo-Einstein structures.
We then turn to the second variation on standard spheres.
While the situation is quite similar to the Riemannian case in dimension greater than or equal to five, in three dimensions, we observe a crucial difference, which mainly depends on the embeddable character of the perturbed CR structure.

Using non-amphiphilic polysaccharide to stabilize oil-in-water emulsions is still a challenge in food industry. Polysaccharide microgels showed emulsifying capacity, however, the stability of the formed emulsions is far from the requirements of the food industry. In this work, agarose microgel/Tween-20 suspensions were prepared and further employed in oil-in-water emulsion stabilization. Focuses were taken on the impact of Tween-20 on the emulsifying properties of agarose microgels. Results suggested that Tween-20 could complex with agarose microgels, and microamounts of Tween-20 (0.02 wt%) could apparently improve the emulsifying performance of microgels. Dynamic interfacial pressure and interfacial adsorption of microgels indicated that appropriate amount of Tween-20 (≤0.04 wt%) could benefit the interfacial adsorption of agarose microgels, while excessive Tween-20 (≥0.08 wt%) could compete with agarose microgels for adsorption sites on oil/water interface. Results of this work supporting that surfactant complexing could be a promising solution to prepare polysaccharides based Mickering emulsions.

Published: June 2024

Single-photon emitters (SPEs) hold the key to many quantum technologies including quantum computing. In particular, developing a scalable array of identical SPEs can play an important role in preparing single photons – crucial resources for computation – at a high rate, allowing to improve the computational capacity. Recently, different types of SPEs have been found in various 2D materials. Towards realizing scalable SPE arrays in 2D materials for quantum computation, it is required to develop tunable SPEs that can produce identical photons by precisely controlling emission properties. Here, we present a brief review of the recent progress on various tuning methods in different 2D materials. Firstly, we discuss the operation principle of different 2D SPEs along with their unique characteristics. Secondly, we introduce various dynamic strain engineering methods for tuning the emission wavelengths in 2D SPEs. We also present several electric field-induced wavelength tuning methods for 2D SPEs. Lastly, we discuss the outlook of dynamically tunable 2D SPEs towards scalable 2D SPE arrays for realizing practical quantum photonics applications.

ARANY JÁNOS NAGYKŐRÖSI ÉVEI (1851–1860) A LEVELEZÉSEI TÜKRÉBEN V.
Authors: Oláh Róbert
Published: June 2024

Arany János (1817–1882) életútjának és irodalmi hagyatékának a feldolgozása immáron több, mint két évszázadra vezethető vissza. A legnagyobb szókinccsel rendelkező magyar személyiségének vizsgálata során nem csupán a műveire támaszkodhatunk, hanem kiterjedt és igen élénk levelezési kapcsolatrendszerére is. Mindezekkel Aranynak nem csupán a művei által megjelenő érzelmi oldala ismerhető meg, hanem a hétköznapi, a családját szerető édesapáé, a szüntelen dolgozó és oktató pedagógusé és a hazáját modernizálandó reformeré is. Ezek vizsgálatához Arany Nagykőrösön töltött évei (1851–1860) során keletkezett leveleinek feldolgozását vettem alapul, amely a legpontosabban tükrözi a költő világát azon időszakban, amikor a poéta balladakorszaka kibontakozott. Fontos kiemelnünk, hogy Arany levelezéseinek kritikai kiadásai ugyan a teljesség igényével készültek, de azok dokumentumainak összehasonlítására eddig nem vállalkoztak a kutatók. Az értékes kordokumentumok kritikai kiadásai ugyan megjelentek, azok taxatív szövegközlése mellett értékes jegyzeteket is találunk, de ezek összehasonlítása és magyarázata még nemtörtént meg. A levelezések vizsgálata lehetőséget teremt számunkra, hogy hiteles képet kapjunk a XIX. századi mindennapokról, a Habsburg önkényuralomról, a református nevelés-oktatás értékrendjéről, valamint az alföldi mezővárosok múltjáról. Mindezek tárgyalása rámutat arra, hogy hogyan válhatott Nagykőrös a „vérzivataros” 1848–1849-es események után a magyar irodalom egyik központjává.
BOOKTOK JELENSÉG

A kutatásom fő célja a fiatalabb generáció olvasási szokásainak elemzése, továbbá a közösségi média terjedésének a hatása a könyvnyomtatásra. Elsődleges célom volt feltárni a kettő közötti korrelációt és annak mértékét. A hipotézisem legfőképpen arra irányul, hogy a különböző közösségi média felületek a fiatalokra ösztönzően hatottak, olvasásra buzdítva őket, és a tömeges felhasználás látványos értékeket idézett elő a gazdasági mutatókban is. Ezekből kifolyólag a kutatás vegyíti a kvantitatív és kvalitatív elemeket, de nagyban használ empirikus módszereket is. Mindazonáltal az adatok megléte számos további kérdést is felvethet. Ilyen például az is, hogy a magyarországi kiadók milyen ütemben veszik át a külföldi mintákat, fenntartható-e a BookTok által előidézett állapot, vagy hogy az online közkedvelt művek mennyire számítanak minőséginek.

Introduction: This study aimed at examining the concurrent associations between stressful life events and borderline personality disorder (BPD) features in a clinical sample of young people. The moderating role of parental support and self-esteem was investigated (i.e., stress buffering). In a subsample, short term changes in BPD features were examined at a 6-month follow-up. Method: The total sample consisted of 318 young people (ages 12-26). Regression analyses were conducted to examine the link between stressful events, parental support, self-esteem, and BPD features. Prospective regression analyses were conducted in a subsample (N = 138). Results: Results indicate that stressful life-events and (low) self-esteem were related to more BPD features at wave 1. However, these associations did not hold in the prospective analyses. Also, no support was found for a stress-buffering effect. Discussion: The discrepancy between the concurrent and the prospective findings suggest that stressful events and self-esteem may be intertwined with BPD features, rather than predictive of change in BPD features 6 months later.

Conversion disorder—called functional neurological symptom disorder in the DSM-5—has roots that trace back to antiquity. The term conversion, originating from psychoanalysis, signifies the appearance of physical symptoms as an effort to resolve or convey unconscious and distressing intrapsychic conflicts— “converting” them from manifesting in the mind to manifesting in the body. Despite efforts made in elucidating the neurobiological etiologies of functional neurological symptom disorder, a psychodynamic lens remains indispensable in understanding the patient. This article presents two patients who developed functional neurological symptom disorder, one after a COVID-19 vaccination and one in the context of long COVID. A discussion follows on the intrapersonal, interpersonal, and systemic etiological factors that predispose, precipitate, and perpetuate COVID-related functional neurological symptom disorder. We elaborate on psychodynamic psychological processes and conflicts that may unfold between patients with COVID-related functional neurological symptom disorder and their health care providers. We also share suggestions on how a consultation-liaison psychiatry team may offer support to the primary treating team to facilitate a therapeutic space within which patients with COVID-related functional neurological symptom disorder may recover.

It was proposed that a reorganization of the relationships between cognitive functions occurs in dementia, a vision that surpasses the idea of a mere decline of specific domains. The complexity of cognitive structure, as assessed by neuropsychological tests, can be captured by exploratory graph analysis (EGA). EGA was applied to the neuropsychological assessment of people (humans) with subjective cognitive decline (SCD), mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and Alzheimer's disease (AD; totalN = 638). Both sexes were included. In AD, memory scores detach from the other cognitive functions, and memory subdomains reduce their reciprocal relation. SCD showed a pattern of segregated neuropsychological domains, and MCI showed a noisy and less stable pattern. Results suggest that AD drives a reorganization of cognitive functions toward a less-fractionated architecture compared with preclinical conditions. Cognitive functions show a reorganization that goes beyond the performance decline. Results also have clinical implications in test interpretations and usage.
Does earlier bathing increase the risk of surgical site infection? A meta-analysis of 11 randomized controlled trials
Authors: Ren Yu , Yu Hui , Wang Zhangfu , Pan Wenjun , Chen Lin , Luo Hua
Published: June 2024

Purpose

For many decades, patients recovering from wound closure have been instructed not to bathe. Although studies have shown that earlier postoperative bathing does not increase the risk of wound infection, it remains rare in practice for patients to be allowed earlier postoperative bathing. We performed this meta-analysis to determine how earlier bathing affected rates of wound infection, other complications, and patient satisfaction.

Methods

This systematic review conforms to PRISMA guidelines. The PubMed, EMBASE, Medline, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were searched from their inception dates to December 31, 2022. We estimated pooled values for the efficacy of trial of earlier bathing versus delayed bathing using the odds ratio and their associated 95% CI, and we used the I
2 statistic to assess heterogeneity between studies contributing to these estimates.

Results

Of the 1813 articles identified by our search, 11 randomized controlled trials including 2964 patients were eligible for inclusion. The incidence of wound infection did not differ significantly between the earlier bathing and delayed bathing groups, nor did rates of other wound complications such as redness and swelling, or wound dehiscence. However, the incidence of hematoma in the delayed bathing group was higher than in the earlier bathing group. Reported patient satisfaction was significantly higher in the earlier bathing group.

Conclusion

The medical community, health authorities, and government should create and disseminate clinical practice guidelines to guide patients to evidence-based beneficial treatment.
Biceps tendon autograft augmentation for rotator cuff and instability procedures: a narrative review

Rotator cuff tears (RCT) and instability are the most common surgically treated shoulder pathologies.

The concept of augmentation using the long head of the biceps tendon (LHBT) autograft was created to improve the results of surgical treatment of these pathologies, especially in cases of chronic and massive injuries.

The popularity of using the LHBT for augmentation is evidenced by the significant number of publications on this topic published in the last 3 years; however, only one systematic review has been published regarding only LHBT augmentation for massive RCTs.

Several studies comparing partial repair with partial repair and additional LHBT augmentation for RCT showed superior clinical outcomes and lower re-tear rates when LHBT augmentation was performed.

There is a rising popularity of using LHBT as an autograft to perform superior capsule reconstruction (SCR) in case of irreparable rotator cuff tears.

In recent years, shoulder stabilization by arthroscopic Bankart repair with biceps augmentation has been promoted with very promising short-term results.

The evidence provided by studies appears to be sufficient to recommend the use of LHBT for augmentation whenever necessary; however, larger studies with long-term follow-up are needed.

l-glutamate is one of the major neurotransmitters in the central nervous system, directly and indirectly involved in numerous brain functions. In several neurodegenerative diseases, it has been observed that an excess of extracellular glutamate overstimulates glutamate receptors, leading to exacerbated neuronal excitation in a process of excitotoxicity and oxidative damage that promotes neuronal death. A number of l-glutamate transporters have been identified in the membrane of neurons and astrocytes. They are responsible for the reuptake of glutamate released into the synaptic cleft after excitatory neurotransmission concomitantly regulating the extracellular concentration of glutamate, protecting neurons from its excitotoxic action. Among all of them, literature highlights glutamate transporter 1, known as excitatory amino acid transporter type 2 in humans and glutamate transporter type 1 in rodents, also known as solute carrier family 1 member 2. It is the predominant glutamate transporter in the brain and ensures the majority of l-glutamate reuptake. Decreased expression of this transporter along with increased levels of oxidative stress have been observed in several chronic and acute neurodegenerative disorders. For this reason, the use of drugs capable of both increasing the expression of glutamate transporter 1 and mitigating oxidative damage has been proposed as an effective therapeutic strategy for these pathologies. We present in this work an overview of the main drugs displaying such a double effect.

This study extracted Bambusa blumeana fiber using alkaline boiling and then applied double-roll pressing in order to develop it, explore the applications of its various parts, and improve its utilization potential. The results showed that the outer bamboo fibers are finer and straighter than the inner and middle fibers, and the fracture mode of the bamboo fibers is brittle. From the inside to the outside, the tensile strength of the fiber bundle gradually increases from the top to the bottom. Moreover, the tensile strength of the outside bamboo fiber is twice that of the inside, reaching a maximum of 982 MPa. The surface of the interior bamboo fiber is relatively smooth and can be used in textile and decorative fields. Compared with internal and central bamboo fiber, the outer fiber has higher thermal stability and higher crystallinity, which makes it more advantageous in the process of strengthening composite materials. Studying the structures of fibers from different parts of Bambusa blumeana can provide substantial scientific support for the differential applications of bamboo fibers.

This study focuses on the pretreatment and characterization of natural fibers from the bamboo shoot shell (BSS) of Phyllostachys heterocycla to determine their suitability as biorefining materials. The discarded bamboo shoot shell was used as a source of fibers, which were analyzed for their physical, chemical, and microstructure properties. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction spectra, and scanning electron microscopy confirmed that a mixture of sodium hydroxide immersion plus high-pressure steam treatment allowed the cellulose structure to be disrupted, providing more adsorption sites for cellulases. Gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS) also showed that the pretreatment exposed the internal structure of the fibers and that high-mass silicon compounds were present in the eluted solution. After adding the cellulase produced by Trichoderma viride and Aspergillus niger, the reducing sugar yield was increased by 268% and 251%, compared to unpretreated BSS fibers. This strategy may apply to many industries, especially biorefining and lignocellulose biotransformation technology.

The objective of this article is to represent the wave-induced currents in the areas near the port of Ilo, with the use of SMC software and a self-developed program in Matlab. In the present study, the parabolic RefDif, for a monochromatic wave model was used for the wave module. The numerical model developed in Matlab allows representing the hydrodynamics of waves and induced currents based on the Navier Stokes equations and mass conservation, in differential form with two spatial dimensions (x, y) and one temporal (t). This model was developed taking into consideration the variables averaged in the vertical z axis and variable draft, considering the phenomenon of protrusion and refraction that the waves suffer when approaching the coastal zone of shallow waters. The model developed in Matlab was validated for the simplified case of straight beaches
