“Comparative Evaluation of Laser and Surgical Treatment Modalities of Oral Leukoplakia” -A Systematic Review
Authors: Das Sukanya , Maini Anuj P. , Khare Vikram V. , Gaikwad Trupti V.
Published: December 2022

Introduction:

Oral leukoplakia (OL) is considered a potentially malignant lesion of the oral cavity.

Aim:

This systematic review aims to evaluate effectiveness of different laser and surgical treatment in management of OL.

Materials and Methods:

A comprehensive search was done using the MeSH [medical subject headings] terms and keyword search in the electronic databases, namely PubMed and Google Scholar. The search was limited to articles published as full text in English, which were screened by two reviewers for eligibility.

Results:

The search yielded nine articles out of which seven articles were only included based on the inclusion criteria. The outcome measure evaluated blood loss, pain, malignant transformation, recurrence, healing, scarring, and adverse outcomes.

Conclusion:

Lasers are more effective in treating OL lesions, but further comparative studies needed to assess their long-term efficacy.
Evaluation of the Spatial Relationship of Impacted Mandibular Third Molar to Mandibular Canal Using CBCT
Authors: Jacob Jesmith Elsa , Balan Anita , Bose Tinky C , Nabeel A K , Girija K L , Ramachandran Sunu
Published: December 2022

Introduction:

Impaction is defined as the “lack of eruption of a tooth in the oral cavity within the time and physiological limits of the normal eruption process.” The prevalence of damage to the inferior alveolar nerve during surgical extraction of impacted mandibular third molars, resulting in transient/permanent dysesthesia or paresthesia, is around 0.4% to 13.4%.

Aims and Objectives:

The study's goal was to use cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) to examine the three-dimensional anatomic association between the impacted mandibular third molars and the mandibular canal and to develop a risk prediction model to screen inferior alveolar nerve injuries.

Materials and Methods:

DICOM files of 300 cases were retrieved and analyzed according to the parameters. Descriptive statistics and a Chi-square test were used to assess the association between different variables and logistic regression to develop a risk prediction model to screen inferior alveolar nerve injuries.

Results:

Inter-observer and intra-observer agreements were excellent for all CBCT variables. Direct contact of the third molar with the mandibular canal was seen in 61.7% of the cases. Statistically significant association was found for loss of corticalization (OR-5.95; P = 0.000), narrowing (OR-18.916; P = 0.000), and dilacerations of roots (OR-3.8; P = 0.004) with “direct contact” of the impacted mandibular third molar to the mandibular canal.

Conclusion:

Preoperative assessment with CBCT entails the opportunity to ascertain the “high-risk” impacted mandibular third molars at a cheaper cost, with less equipment maintenance and reduced exposure, compared to computed tomography (CT) imaging.

Entangled Literary Genres in Syriac from Malabar in the Aftermath of the Synod of Diamper (1599)
Authors: Mustaţă Radu
Published: December 2022

During the second half of the sixteenth and the first half of the seventeenth centuries, the Syriac literary heritage of the Malabar Christians shifted from a standard East Syriac (“Nestorian”) canon of texts to a Catholic post-Tridentine literary output in Syriac, a fusion of Western (Latin) and Middle Eastern (Syriac) sources and elements. The present article analyzes the literary networks of the community of the Malabar Christians, as expressed in the production of Syriac texts undertaken by the Catholic missionaries and arguably their Indian Syriacist pupils. The period under investigation is around the time of the Synod of Diamper (1599), a turning point in the ecclesiastical history of Malabar. The synod marked the Portuguese’s attempt to impose Tridentine Catholicism on the Malabar Christians and ordered to correct their Syriac books according to Catholic Orthodoxy or burn them as heretical. My paper focuses on the relationship between (1) collections of sermons and (2) liturgical poetry, since these two are entangled literary genres. Occasionally Syriac sermons (translated from Latin or composed on the spot by Catholic missionaries) were replicated in liturgical poetry and show the chains of transmission of Syriac knowledge from Catholic teachers (especially Jesuits) to their Indian students. Such relationship between literary genres comes clearly to the fore in the case of prose compositions coming arguably from the Syriacising circles of Francisco Ros, the first European Bishop of the Malabar Christians (1601-1624), and newly discovered pieces of Syriac poetry which might have been written by his Indian disciple Alexander the Indian/Kadavil Chandy Kattanar (1588-1673). The groups of texts under discussion show the transfer of knowledge from both the Latin West and the Syriac-speaking Middle East that created a new theological literary culture for the Malabar Christians as an expression of the Jesuit missionary principle of *accommodatio*. Source analysis of such texts allows one to dive into various aspects of the ecclesiastical and confessional life of the Malabar Christians, and into the cross-cultural encounters between them and the Catholic missionaries.
Analysis of CBD Products
Authors: Science Fera
Published: December 2022

The Food Standards Agency commissioned Fera Science Ltd. to carry out a survey to obtain a snapshot of CBD products on sale in England and Wales in order to inform FSA risk assessment of CBD products. Thirty CBD products were purchased from a range of online sellers from England and Wales. Samples comprised of two broad categories: oils and sprays, and edibles (including beverages). The sampling followed a scheme suggested by FSA. This is not a statistically representative sample of the market and instead provides a snapshot of the current market, to assist the design of future sampling and surveillance activity. There is the potential for residues of chemicals to be present in CBD products as a result of their natural occurrence in the raw material or arising from the manufacturing process, for example, mycotoxins, metals, pesticides, and the residues of solvents used to extract CBD. This study informs the FSA’s understanding of the type and levels of contaminants that may arise in CBD products. A wide range of analysis on CBD products was undertaken using accredited methods, for heavy metals, Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs), pesticides, mycotoxins, CBD content and cannabinoid profiles. Analysis for residual solvents and additional mycotoxins was also carried out, but these were not accredited. The results of testing found the following: Heavy metals (cadmium, mercury & lead) and arsenic were not detected in the majority of samples, meaning levels were below the limits of quantification of the method. Seven samples contained lead, four samples arsenic and two samples contained cadmium. Mercury was not found in any sample. A definitive statement as to whether products exceed maximum levels cannot be made due to uncertainty as to whether products would be classified as a food (i.e. oil) or a food supplement. A low incidence of low levels of mycotoxins, with Fusarium mycotoxins found more frequently than aflatoxins and ochratoxin A, mostly at the methods reporting limit. Three samples were found to contain ochratoxin A at the methods reporting limit. A total of seven pesticide residues were found across all of the products (each product was tested for over 400 pesticides). There are no specific Maximum Residue Limits (MRL) for CBD products. One oil product was found to have PAHs above the regulated levels, if classed as a product for direct consumption. If classed as a food supplement the PAHs were within regulated levels. Three samples contained residual solvents. One product was over the MRL. Most products contained CBD close to the declared value. Two oils had substantially different levels than that declared (one higher and one lower). CBD was not detected in one of the drink products. These are potentially non-compliant with compositional and standards requirements. Delta 9-THC was detected in 87 % (26) of the samples analysed. Of these 40% (12) were found to have THC+ (the total sum of illicit cannabinoids in the product) above the 1mg threshold outlined in current Home Office guidance (Opens in a new window).
Nitrate Surveillance Monitoring Program (Annual Report May 2021 - March 2022)
Authors: ADAS RSK
Published: December 2022

Every Member State is required to monitor and report levels of nitrate in specified foodstuffs as part of the European Commission regulation and the UK also requires this information as part of the collection of data to support the review of retained EU law in the UK and inform the setting of policy around maximum nitrate levels. The requirement to carry out monitoring for nitrate in lettuce, spinach and rocket is being met by the UK Nitrate Surveillance Programme. Results are presented for the period between 1st April 2021 and 31st March 2022. A total of 202 samples were collected within the sampling period, comprising of 130 lettuce, 9 rocket, 26 spinach samples. A further 37 samples categorised at “Other Green Leafy Vegetables”, which comprised of samples including mustard, mizuna, celery, Pak Choi and cabbage. The lowest average nitrate concentration was recorded in summer-grown iceberg lettuce (935.2 mg/kg), and no iceberg samples exceeded the maximum nitrate concentration. The highest average nitrate concentration was seen in winter grown non-iceberg lettuce grown under protection within the lettuce group (3242.2 mg/kg), and in winter-grown rocket overall (4271.2 mg/kg). The number of samples exceeding the maximum threshold increased this year to 7 samples – 2 samples of open-air non-iceberg lettuce sampled in the summer, 1 sample of protected non-iceberg lettuce in the summer, and 3 samples of spinach. A further 4 samples were within 10% of the maximum threshold. Consistent with previous years of this project, a strong correlation was found between nitrate concentration and sampling date, with samples collected later in the season showing greater concentrations, indicating potential interactions between nitrate accumulation and climate – particularly light levels and available soil moisture and the accumulation of nitrate in the soil through subsequent fertiliser applications with successive planting. Furthermore, there was significant interaction between nitrate accumulation, product type and cultivation type, which could be further explored to better identify risk factors associated with nitrate accumulation in leafy vegetables grown in the UK.

Published: December 2022

La reacción a fármacos con eosinofilia y síntomas sistémicos (del acrónimo en inglés DRESS: drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms) o síndrome de hipersensibilidad inducida por fármacos (del acrónimo en inglés DIHS: drug induced hypersensitivity syndrome), es una reacción adversa a fármacos (RAF) grave e infrecuente. Los mecanismos involucrados en su fisiopatogenia incluyen diversas alteraciones de las enzimas metabolizadoras de fármacos, con la consecuente acumulación de metabolitos reactivos, la reactivación secuencial de virus de la familia del herpes, la predisposición genética asociada a ciertos alelos de antígenos leucocitarios humanos (HLA) y una respuesta de hipersensibilidad retardada de tipo IV. En la actualidad, se han ido incorporando nuevos fármacos responsables de este cuadro como medicamentos biológicos, inmunosupresores y quimioterápicos. La presentación clínica del DRESS es variable. Tiene una morbimortalidad alta y supone costos elevados en la atención médica. Su tratamiento consiste, en primer lugar, en la suspensión de los fármacos causales o sospechosos de desencadenar el síndrome. Luego, según la gravedad del cuadro, se pueden indicar corticosteroides sistémicos o inmunoglobulina (IGIV) combinada con corticosteroides, plasmaféresis, ciclosporina, micofenolato de mofetilo y rituximab.El objetivo de este trabajo fue realizar una revisión sobre el DRESS y destacar los aspectos nuevos y relevantes de los últimos 5 años.

Rites et offrandes dans la religion domestique des Romains : quels témoignages sur l’utilisation de l’encens ?
Authors: CHARLES-LAFORGE Marie-Odile
Published: December 2022

Résumé

Si l’encens trouve sa place dans la plupart des rites publics des religions de l’Antiquité, qu’en est-il sur le plan du culte privé chez les Romains ? Les auteurs anciens, notamment les poètes, évoquent fréquemment la libation du vin et l’offrande de l’encens qui interviennent avant le sacrifice proprement dit. Ceci se retrouve dans les témoignages iconographiques qui sont tout aussi indispensables que les témoignages littéraires pour l’analyse des rites. C’est pourquoi cette étude sera menée à partir des peintures de laraires et objets de culte découverts dans les maisons pompéiennes afin de déterminer quelle est la place accordée à l’encens dans les cérémonies du culte domestique mais aussi lors des rites funéraires. Nous devrions être à même de trouver des témoignages archéologiques de sa présence et d’en tirer des conclusions. Nous les enrichirons par une approche du domaine funéraire à Pompéi afin de compléter nos témoignages sur l’utilisation de l’encens lors des rites organisés par la famille.

Abstract

Title: Rites and offerings in the domestic religion of the Romans: what testimonies on the use of incense?

If frankincense finds its place in most of the public rites of religions of Antiquity, what about the Romans’private worship ? Ancient authors, especially poets, frequently mention the libation of wine and the incense’s offering that occur before the sacrifice itself. Nevertheless, the sacrifices’ scenes don’t give them much importance whereas they are as indispensable as the literary testimonies for the rites’ analysis. Therefore, this study will be carried out from lararia paintings and cult objects discovered in Pompeian houses to determine the place given to incense in the ceremonies of domestic cult but also in funeral rites. We should be able to find archaeological evidence of its presence and draw conclusions. We will complete with an approach to the funerary field to look for evidence of incense use in the funeral in Pompeii.
Se vêtir pour les dieux. Costumes de fête, beauté et performance rituelle en Grèce ancienne
Authors: GHERCHANOC Florence
Published: December 2022

Résumé

En croisant textes littéraires et épigraphiques à une documentation iconographique, l’article précise les caractéristiques récurrentes d’un costume rituel. Celui-ci, qualifié parfois de kosmos, est constitué d’étoffes fines fabriquées avec technicité, alliant des couleurs vives et éclatantes et des dessins aussi bien géométriques que figuratifs. La présence comme l’absence d’un tel luxe vestimentaire jouent, ainsi, un rôle fondamental au regard de la simplicité ou de l’ostentation attendues lors des opérations rituelles ; la richesse vestimentaire varie également en fonction de la divinité honorée par une cité. Puis, l’article analyse précisément le rôle de ce costume durant le spectacle que constitue une fête religieuse en Grèce ancienne. Ainsi, il montre en quoi les habits de fête servent la performance rituelle, son eukosmia, créant de la beauté et du plaisir pour faire demeurer la charis, bénéfique au succès de la fête et au commerce avec les dieux.

Abstract

Title: Dressing up for the gods. Festival costumes, beauty and ritual performance in ancient Greece

By crossing literary and epigraphic texts with iconographic documentation, this paper points out the recurrent characteristics of a ritual costume. These clothes, sometimes referred to as kosmos, are made of fine fabrics displaying technical skills that combine bright, vivid colours with geometric and figurative patterns. The presence as well as the absence of such luxury clothes play a fundamental role in regards with the simplicity or the ostentation expected during the ritual enactments; the wealth of clothing also depends on the deity honoured by a city. Then, the paper analyses specifically the role of this costume during the performance of a religious festival in ancient Greece. Thus, it shows how festival garments serve the ritual performance, its eukosmia, creating beauty and pleasure to keep the charis, beneficial to the success of the festival and the exchange with the gods.
Esquisse d’une approche interdisciplinaire sur les liens entre pratiques funéraires et identités : problèmes, débats et concepts
Authors: FLOQUET Juliette , VOISIN Corentin , WALDVOGEL Laura
Published: December 2022

Résumé

L’étude des pratiques funéraires constitue un moyen d’appréhender les sociétés présentes ou passées par le biais d’observations, d’outils, de notions ou de concepts issus des sciences humaines et sociales. Toutefois, cette approche rencontre de nombreuses difficultés face à la définition de la ou des identités comme construite(s) ou constructions culturelles. Il est alors nécessaire de définir ce qu’on entend par pratique funéraire d’une part et identité(s) d’autre part. Pour cela, le recours à la discussion interdisciplinaire permet de faire émerger les problématiques liées à la combinaison de ces deux notions, mais aussi aux méthodes et à l’étendue des connaissances accessibles dans l’étude d’une société.

Abstract

Title: Towards a transdisciplinary approach to the links between funerary practices and identities: problems, debates and concepts

The study of funerary practices is a means of apprehending present or past societies through observations, tools, notions or concepts borrowed from the humanities and social sciences. However, this approach meets numerous hurdles in defining identity or identities as cultural constructs or constructions. It is therefore necessary to define what is meant by funerary practice on the one hand and identity(ies) on the other hand. In this regard, interdisciplinary discussions play a key role to address the issues linked to the combination of these two notions, as well as to get a better grasp of the methods and the extent of the knowledge accessible in the study of a society.
Réélaborer un modèle d’étude du pythagorisme : l’air de famille pythagoricien
Authors: VOISIN Corentin
Published: December 2022

Résumé

La recherche sur le pythagorisme aux XIXe et XXe siècles a été parsemée de restitutions et de modèles souvent sources de malentendus ou de mésinterprétations. Cette situation met le chercheur face à une grande quantité de notions précédemment développées qui ne peuvent s’appliquer à un système cohérent. En l’absence d’unité doctrinale, il est possible de se tourner vers les outils de la philosophie de Wittgenstein qui s'appliquent au langage. Le concept d’air de famille, développé par le philosophe allemand, permet alors de comprendre comment s’est constituée l’idée d’un groupe pythagoricien sans caractéristique commune évidente. Ce nouveau modèle, s’appuyant sur des réseaux de ressemblance et de superposition, permet d’envisager l’étude du pythagorisme sans recourir à un système reconstitué a priori.

Abstract

Title: Rebuilding a model for the study of Pythagoreanism: the Pythagorean family resemblance

Research on Pythagoreanism in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries has been littered with reconstructions and models that have often resulted in misunderstanding or misinterpretation. This situation confronts the researcher with a large number of previously developed notions that cannot be applied to a coherent system. In the absence of doctrinal unity, it is possible to turn to the tools of Wittgenstein's philosophy as applied to language. The concept of family resemblance, developed by the German philosopher, allows us to understand how the idea of a Pythagorean group with no obvious common characteristics came about. This new model, based on networks of resemblance and overlaps, allows us to study Pythagoreanism without resorting to an a priori reconstructed system.

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a ocorrência de interação genótipo x ambiente (IGA) em características de produção de leite (PL305), gordura (G305) e proteína (P305) truncadas em 305 dias de animais da raça Guzerá. Foram utilizados 6823 registros de PL305, 2466 registros de G305 e 1870 registros de P305 fornecidos pelo Programa Nacional de Melhoramento do Guzerá para Leite (PNMGuL), coordenado pela Embrapa Gado de Leite e pelo Centro Brasileiro de Melhoramento Genético do Guzerá (CBMG 2 ). A estação de parto foi divida em seca (abril a setembro) e chuvosa (outubro a março). Apenas as informações de vacas primíparas foram utilizadas. Os grupos de contemporâneos (GC) foram formados considerando rebanho e ano de parto. Foram incluídos nesse estudo apenas GC com no mínimo três registros de filhas de dois reprodutores diferentes. As análises foram realizadas em dois passos. No primeiro passo foram estimados os efeitos ambientais sobre os fenótipos utilizando um modelo animal multicaracterístico ignorando a IGA. No segundo passo, a ocorrência de IGA foi avaliada através de análises unicaracterísticas utilizando modelo de normas de reação e considerando variância residual heterogênea. As soluções de GC obtidas no passo 1, dadas como desvio da média, foram utilizadas como gradiente ambiental, representando ambientes de baixo a alto nível de manejo. Os reprodutores foram classificados quanto à sensibilidade e as normas de reação para os touros com no mínimo 15 filhas foram apresentadas graficamente. Observou-se incremento das estimativas de variância genética ao longo do gradiente ambiental para todas as características avaliadas. O mesmo ocorreu para a variância residual com exceção da classe 5 da G305 e da classe 4 da P305. As estimativas de herdabilidade aumentaram levemente conforme houve aumento do nível de manejo. As estimativas de correlação entre o intercepto e a inclinação da curva de norma de reação foram 0,998 para PL305; 0,989 para G305; e 0,987 para P305. A correlação genética entre os ambientes de baixo (quantil 5%), médio (quantil 55%) e alto (quantil 95%) nível de manejo foram de alta magnitude. A maioria dos reprodutores foram classificados como robustos para todas as características, seguidos pelos sensíveis e extremamente sensíveis. O mesmo foi observado para a quantidade de filhas. Não foi observada a reclassificação dos touros para PL305 e G305. Para P305 a reclassificação não foi significativa. Contudo, os valores genéticos dos animais foram alterados ao longo do gradiente ambiental, mesmo para animais classificados como robustos. Esses resultados permitem concluir que houve interação genótipo x ambiente com efeito escala para as características avaliadas com impacto sobre as predições de valores genéticos.

Authors: Liubych V. V. , Cherneha A. O. , Kalaida K. V. , Bodnar V. I.
Published: December 2022

Purpose. To study the features of quality formation (biochemical composition, content of vitamins, macro- and microelements, integral sugar) of fresh berries and currant jam depending on the variety.

Methods. Laboratory – determination of the content of water, ash, protein, sugar, vitamins and mineral elements, calculation – integral rate, mathematical and statistical.

Results. It was found that fresh berries contained 1.8–6.2 times more ash, protein, fat, dietary fiber and water compared to jam. However, the content of mono- and disaccharides was 10–11 times higher in cooked compared to fresh berries. This trend is due to the addition of sugar to the jam. It should be noted that the biochemical composition changed significantly depending on the variety of black currant. Thus, fresh berries of the ‘Chereshneva’ variety contained significantly more ash, protein and dietary fiber compared to the ‘Volodymyrska’ variety. However, the content of fat and sugars was significantly lower compared to the 'Volodymyrska' variety. Calculations confirm that fresh blackcurrant berries provide the most daily need for vitamin B9 – by 550–625%, depending on the variety. The integral score for vitamin C was 178.2–184.5%. The smallest integral score was for β-carotene – 2.0%. This indicator for the rest of the vitamins varied from 2.7 to 10.8% depending on the variety of black currant. The integral rate in cooking black currants was 1.7–3.9 times lower (1.1–4.0%) compared to fresh berries, depending on the type of vitamin.

Conclusions. The biochemical composition of berries varies depending on the variety and condition of blackcurrant berries. Currant berries of the ‘Volodymyrska’ variety have a lower biological value, since the integral speed is lower compared to the ‘Chereshneva’ variety. In addition to the highwater content, fresh berries contain sugars, fat and dietary fiber. Fresh currant berries contain the most vitamins B9 and C. The content of vitamins in boiled black currant was 2.5–4.5 times lower compared to fresh berries. Fresh berries contained the most potassium – 347–352 mg/100 g, and the least was copper – 0.13 mg/100 g. The content of mineral elements in currant jam was 1.6–2.7 times lower compared to fresh berries. The highest integral score was magnesium, iron and phosphorus – 9.8–11% in fresh berries and 7.3–10.9% – in cooked black currants.

Purpose. Reveal the influence of varietal characteristics, seed inoculation and foliar fertilization on the photosynthetic productivity of kidney bean.

Methods. Field, laboratory, comparative, and calculation method.

Results. The leaf area of kidney bean is increasing from the phase of the third trifoliate leaf to the flowering phase. The maximum leaf area was found at the end of flowering phase and amounted to 33.7–40.3 thousand m2/ha, varying over varieties, foliar fertilization and the use of biological products. The best fertilizer option for maximum dry matter accumulation was the double application of potassium humate in combination with pre-sowing inoculation of seeds with biological products. The highest dry matter accumulation in this fertilization treatment was demonstrated by ‘Otrada’ (5.82 t/ha) and ‘Nata’ (5.86 t/ha) varieties, reaching a maximum at the beginning of ripening. These indicators exceeded the control treatment by 0.64 t/ha or 12.4% and 0.74 t/ha or 14.5%. Photosynthetic potential reached a maximum in the interphase period "the beginning of flowering – the end of flowering" and reached a point of 0.70–0.99 million m2·day/ha. The maximum net productivity of photosynthesis in all studied kidney been varieties, except for ‘Halaktyka’, was in the period “the third true leaf – the beginning of flowering” and amounted to 3.54–4.26 g/m2 per day.

Conclusions. The maximum amounts of the assimilation surface area (39.8–40.5 thousand m2/ha) were ensured by ‘Bukovynka’, ‘Otrada’ and ‘Nata’ varieties under the double application of potassium humate in combination with pre-sowing inoculation of seeds with biological products. The maximum values of photosynthetic potential in the conditions of research were provided by varieties ‘Nata’ (2.0 million m2·days/ha), ‘Ros’ (2.07 million m2·days/ha) and ‘Otrada’ (2.08 million m2·days/ha) under fertilization combined pre-sowing inoculation of seeds and two foliar fertilizations with potassium humate. The highest dry matter content in this fertilization treatment was accumulated by ‘Otrada’ (5.82 t/ha) and ‘Nata’ (5.86 t/ha) varieties, reaching a maximum at the beginning of ripening phase. The maximum net productivity of photosynthesis of kidney bean was achieved by ‘Otrada’ variety amounting to 4.06–4.26 g/m2 per day.

La Sociedad Americana de Cardiología (American Heart Association), en Estados Unidos indica que para el 2017 alrededor de 2.200 defunciones al día fueron causados por una enfermedad cardiovascular, dentro de ellas el infarto agudo de miocardio y la insuficiencia cardiaca (IC)1. En Latinoamérica la realidad presenta una realidad semejantes con el agregado de que las políticas de prevención y tratamiento no están bien desarrolladas, llevando a tener más días de ingreso hospitalario en el año y días de hospitalización en relación a los registro americanos como el AHDERE2. En nuestro país según el Instituto Nacional de Estadísticas y Censos (INEC) para el año 2018, la IC se ubicó dentro de las 15 primeras causas de muerte al año con 1112 muertes registradas3.
