A 2 mo old domestic shorthair kitten was presented for acute respiratory distress and severe ambulatory difficulties. Thoracic radiography revealed hyperinflation of the left cranial lung lobe and a mass with soft-tissue/gas opacity in the caudal mediastinum, leading to the suspicion of congenital lung lobe emphysema and hiatal hernia. Decreased bone radiopacity and suspected pathological fractures were also present. Complete clinicopathological analyses showed significant ionized hypocalcemia and suspicion of secondary hyperparathyroidism related to an inadequate diet. Lung lobectomy and reduction of the hiatal hernia following a median sternotomy and a cranial laparotomy were performed. IV and oral supplementation of calcium led to a full recovery and improvement in the kitten’s walking. A histopathological analysis revealed pulmonary emphysema associated with hypoplastic and irregular bronchial cartilage. Congenital lobar emphysema is a rare disease in both humans and animals. This is the first veterinary report describing a kitten affected by congenital lobar emphysema combined with a hiatal hernia and additionally complicated by secondary nutritional hyperparathyroidism with a good long-term outcome.

Authors: Poletto Jéssica Eloá , Tolocka Rute Estanislava
Published: May 2022

O câncer infantil altera a rotina da criança e diminui possibilidades de brincar e praticar atividades motoras. O objetivo geral deste estudo foi realizar uma revisão sistemática sobre brincar e ou praticar atividades motoras em tratamentos de câncer infantil. Adotou-se o método de revisão bibliográfica indicada por Severino e utilizou-se os indexadores do portal de periódicos da CAPES. Foram encontrados 23 estudos com brincar e 21 estudos com atividades motoras em tratamento de câncer infantil. Foram encontradas evidências de que o brincar auxilia no enfrentamento do câncer, na adesão ao tratamento e na diminuição de sentimentos negativos e de comportamentos não-facilitadores, além de indícios de que o brincar pode ser utilizado para oferecer momentos de alegria em meio à dor e aos processos invasivos. Porém, estes estudos não consideram o lúdico como um fim em si mesmo, apenas como meio facilitador de adesão ao tratamento oncológico. Os estudos referentes à atividade motora e câncer infantil trazem indícios de que a prática de tais atividades é segura e viável e pode auxiliar as crianças nos aspectos físicos, sociais e psicológicos. Indicam ainda que a falta dela pode causar prejuízos em relação à tais aspectos, além do fato de que crianças expostas ao tratamento oncológico apresentam níveis baixos de atividade física. Os cuidados e os riscos dessa prática com crianças com câncer estão relacionados à verificação da pressão arterial e da temperatura antes de iniciar o programa. O estudo foi dividido em duas partes sendo que na primeira são apresentados os aspectos introdutórios e metodológicos. Pela segunda parte são mostrados os resultados, discussão e considerações finais.

Published: May 2022

As provas de atletismo de meio fundo e fundo são caracterizadas como de média e longa distância, exigindo o preparo físico e psicológico dos atletas para a conclusão do percurso. Neste estudo, os aspectos para a prática terão enfoque numa perspectiva motivacional, a partir da avaliação da motivação e paixão. A motivação é vista como um combustível para inserção e continuidade dos atletas no esporte, enquanto a internalização harmoniosa ou obsessiva da paixão orienta a dedicação de forma autônoma ou controlada à atividade de treinamento e às demais atividades do cotidiano/sociais. O objetivo foi investigar a motivação e paixão em atletas do atletismo paranaense das provas de meio fundo e fundo. Foram sujeitos 47 atletas (31 homens e 16 mulheres), com média de idade 25,68 (±7,78 anos), participantes dos Jogos Abertos do Paraná (2019). Os instrumentos foram a Escala de Motivação para o Esporte (SMS II) e a Escala da Paixão (PS). A análise dos dados foi realizada a partir da Análise de Conteúdo, testes U de Mann Whitney, Kruskal Wallis e Coeficiente de Correlação de Spearman (p<0,05). Os resultados demonstraram que os atletas ingressaram no esporte por fatores externos como saúde e internos como o amor e prazer pela prática. As dimensões predominantes da motivação e paixão foram Motivação Integrada (Md=6,67), Motivação Intrínseca (Md=6,33) e a Paixão Harmoniosa (Md=6,00). Independente do sexo e do incentivo financeiro os atletas se mostrarem motivados de forma intrínseca e apaixonados harmoniosamente pela modalidade (p>0,05). As comparações em função do nível competitivo indicaram que os atletas de nível nacional (Md=6,80) revelarem resultados superiores na Paixão Harmoniosa (p=0,041) em comparação com os atletas de nível regional (Md=5,70) e internacional (Md=5,80). Foram identificadas correlações positivas de moderadas a fortes entre a Paixão Harmoniosa e Obsessiva e as dimensões da Motivação (Intrínseca, Integrada, Identificada e Introjetada) (0,437<r< 0,603). Os atletas paranaenses de atletismo das provas de meio fundo e fundo são motivados por fatores internos, realizando-a por amor e prazer pela prática, além de internalizarem esta modalidade em sua identidade na forma de paixão harmoniosa e autônoma. O estudo foi dividido em duas partes. Na primeira parte são apresentados os aspectos introdutórios e metodológicos. Na segunda parte são apresentados os resultados obtidos, discussões e conclusões do estudo.

Published: May 2022

A identificação precoce dos indicadores de produtividade das culturas pode ajudar a aumentar o rendimento e o lucro. Assim, o objetivo desse trabalho foi avaliar modelos de regressão linear para a predição da produtividade da cultura da soja, a nível regional, utilizando índices de vegetação obtidos por imagens de sensores orbitais. Amostras de plantas foram coletas em propriedades da região sul do estado do Tocantins e, posteriormente, em laboratório foram determinadas suas produtividades. Estas áreas foram demarcadas com o auxílio de um aparelho GPS. Os índices de vegetação foram gerados com o auxílio do SIG Qgis® e obtidos os índices NDVI, SAVI, NDWI e EVI2. Os dados de produtividade foram utilizados para a realização de correlações e regressões com os dados dos índices de vegetação. Para verificar se os modelos propostos foram adequados para descrever a produtividade, analisou-se o R². Os valores dos índices de vegetação da safra 2015/2016 teve uma maior variabilidade em relação à safra 2016/2017, que pode ser explicado pela distribuição pluviométrica irregular nessa safra. Os modelos de regressão linear múltiplas tiveram coeficientes de determinação superiores a 71%. E os modelos produzidos com dados conjuntos das duas safras, o R² alcançou valores superiores a 62%, o que demonstra a importância do aspecto temporal na previsão de safras.

A Febre Chikungunya (FC) é uma arbovirose caracterizada por febre, mialgia e poliartralgia. Linfedema em membros inferiores foi observado em vários pacientes durante um surto de FC no estado de Pernambuco (Brasil) em 2016. Não há relatos de doença dos vasos linfáticos devido à febre de Chikungunya. O objetivo do estudo foi acompanhar as alterações linfáticas nos membros inferiores de 16 pacientes com FC, por meio da linfocintilografia. Métodos: Estudo prospectivo observacional com pacientes em fase aguda de FC (diagnóstico sorológico confirmado) com edema de MI submetidos a avaliação clínica e linfocintilografia em fase inicial e após 90 dias. Resultados: Dezesseis pacientes (81% mulheres) participaram deste estudo. Todos os pacientes apresentavam linfedema de membros inferiores, sendo 15 (94%) bilaterais. Dos 31 membros acometidos pelo linfedema, 24 (77%) apresentavam anormalidades na drenagem linfática na linfocintilografia. O atraso na visualização dos linfonodos pélvicos foi a alteração linfocintilográfica mais frequente, observada em 16 (51,6%) membros inferiores. Nove (56%) pacientes foram reavaliados clinicamente após 90 dias, e todos os 18 membros inferiores permaneceram com linfedema. Uma segunda linfocintilografia mostrou alterações persistentes em 13 (72%) dos 18 membros. Conclusão: A FC pode levar ao linfedema, e o linfedema pode persistir ou progredir após três meses da fase aguda da doença.

Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor of the infratemporal fossa: Case report and literature review
Authors: Amaral Pereira Susana , Fino Rui , Montalvão Pedro , Doutel Delfim , Pocinho Rute , Magalhães Miguel
Published: May 2022

Introduction: Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST) is rare soft tissue sarcoma that arises from a peripheral nerve or shows nerve sheath differentiation.

Case Report: We present a case of a 43-year-old female diagnosed with neurofibromatosis type 1 and with a plexiform neurofibroma of the infratemporal fossa (IF) evolving for about four years. Examination revealed facial asymmetry with the prominence of the right hemiface, without facial pain, motor deficits or facial numbness. The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a lesion in right IF with well-defined limits and 18F-FDG positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) showed intense metabolism that was attributed to malignant transformation. Cytology confirmed a MPNST. Excision of the IF lesion by maxillary swing approach was performed. The anatomopathological evaluation of the lesion revealed a 7×6×3 cm high grade MPNST arising within a neurofibroma. The excision was juxtalesional. The tumor was staged at pT3cN0M0, IIIB. The patient underwent adjuvant radiotherapy. Currently, after 12 months of follow-up, the patient is asymptomatic, without neurologic deficits. The MRI performed three months after the end of radiotherapy shows no evidence of tumor recurrence.

Conclusion: The only known definitive curative treatment for MPNST is complete surgical resection with wide negative margins. The maxillary swing approach delivers wide tumor exposure, providing controlled dissection with minimizing morbidity. Despite maximal efforts, MPNSTs are usually highly aggressive. Increased tumor size and high-grade morphology, features which were observed in our patient, have been identified as factors that negatively affect long-term survival. We encourage a multidisciplinary approach in the management of these rare tumors to optimize outcomes.
Primary urethral carcinoma mistaken as a caruncle: A case report
Authors: Brandon Chen Yufan , Bibby Sarah , Hirai-Adachi Chihiro , Hillyer Shahab
Published: May 2022

Introduction: Urethral caruncles are the most common benign urethral lesion in females, especially in post-menopausal women. In rare cases, primary urethral carcinoma can develop from a caruncle.
Case Report: We present a case of primary urethral carcinoma in a patient who presented with urethral tenderness and what appeared to be a benign urethral caruncle. After failing conservative therapy, she underwent excision of the lesion, which revealed moderately differentiated invasive squamous cell carcinoma. She then underwent excision of the distal urethra and anterior vaginal wall. No residual disease was discovered and she recovered well without symptoms of stress urinary incontinence.
Conclusion: Excision of a urethral caruncle is indicated in a symptomatic patient not responding to conservative therapy in order to rule out an underlying malignancy.

Introduction: Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) of the jaws is a late, severe and difficult to manage side effect in patients who underwent radiotherapy (RT) in the head and neck region. Treatment remains controversial, especially in refractory cases that do not respond to multiple attempts with different therapies, due to their complex pathophysiology. It is based on conservative non-surgical approaches, even in large resections using free flaps. The present study aims to present and describe a clinical case of refractory ORN treated through microsurgical reconstruction and adjuvant therapies.
Case Report: A 51-year-old female patient with oncological background of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) of the floor of the mouth, previously treated with marginal mandibulectomy, and who subsequently relapsed. In a second surgical time, left hemimandibulectomy was performed, followed by microsurgical reconstruction with the fibular osteomusculocutaneous free flap, besides, dental implants were placed in the perioperative time. Radiotherapy was performed using a 3D conformal technique technique with a total dose of 66 Gy and after six months the patient developed infection in the treated region and it was observed partial exposure of the fibular flap and intra and extraoral purulent drainage, and after imaging analysis the diagnosis of ORN was established. Some non-surgical therapeutic attempts were performed without clinical response and a new surgical approach was performed based on sequestrectomy, the removal of the titanium plaque and dental implants with a second microsurgical reconstruction with forearm fasciocutaneous free flap to cover the soft tissue defect was done.
Conclusion: The pathophysiology of ORN remains controversial and the predictive factors for its appearance, development, and progression are still unclear. Marginal mandibulectomy could be associated with a rapid onset of ORN in patients submitted to adjuvant RT and it could be considered as a potential predictive factor. Combined therapies are reliable alternatives for local control in refractory cases and in advanced stages, and surgical removal with microsurgical reconstruction procedures are still a feasible alternative that has shown satisfactory clinical results.
Post-Brexit Scenario: The European Union under Threat
Authors: Shahroo Malik
Published: May 2022

Around 60 years after signing of the Treaty of Rome, which led to the establishment of the European Economic Community (EEC), the European Union (EU) is struggling with the aftermath of eurozone and migration crisis and the rise of anti-EU and populist movements all across Europe. Britain’s decision to move out of the EU, further adds to the challenges faced by the EU and put its regional integration in question. This paper tries to expose the factors that led to Brexit, analyses whether the EU is headed towards disintegration and what reforms are needed to save the EU model of regional integration from disintegration. Brexit was a complex interplay of factors such as a threat to national identity and sovereignty, rising inequality and economic insecurity and Euroscepticism. The results indicate that in post-Brexit, support for the EU has increased in member states. The economic losses and political chaos that Britain had to undergo post-Brexit has united the EU members despite the rise of populist movements across Europe. However, the EU needs to bring in some structural reforms and make the EU institutions more democratic and flexible in order to sustain as a model of regional integration.

Aenasius bambawalei Hayat (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae) is a solitary nymphal endoparasitoid of mealybug, Phenacoccus solenopsis Tinsley (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae). The parasitism performance of A. bambawalei on the 3rd nymphal instar of P. solenopsis at different densities 20, 30, 40 and 50 P. solenopsis was tested. The results showed that the maximum number of P. solenopsis parasitized and male and female adults emerged at 30 P. solenopsis density than other densities. Similarly, the maximum sex ratio M: F (1: 1.7) was found at 50 P. solenopsis density as compared to others. The highest parasitization percentage was observed on 3-day old A. bambawalei at all P. solenopsis densities. The 30 P. solenopsis density is the most preferred and suitable for mass rearing of A. bambawalei and the 3-day old parasitoid use of biological control programme to control P. solenopsis.

, Lichens not only play a major role in plant succession as pioneer species but also provide many ecosystem services. Various anthropogenic activities like habitat destruction, air pollution and over exploitation of lichens for economic uses seem to be the main threats for loss of lichen diversity. Hence, for in situ conservation of lichens, it is a prioritised need to document lichen species of a locality. Lichens of Assam are being extensively studied from a taxonomic point of view in recent years. An accurate and updated checklist of lichens is not available so far. Here we expand the knowledge of the lichen of Assam by critically surveyed the literatures and prepared an updated list of total 657 species of Assam.

Published: May 2022

Women’s health global agenda has recently reformulated to address more accurate cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) prevention, diagnosis and treatment. The aim of the present work was to review the hitherto global and national policies and practices which address gender equality in health with the focus oriented towards CVDs in women. Scientific databases and health organizations’ websites that present/discuss policies and initiatives targeting to enhance a sex-centered approach regarding general health and/or specifically cardiac health care were reviewed in a systematic way. In total, n=53 relevant documents were selected. The selected policies and initiatives included position statements, national action plans, evidence-based guidelines, guidance/recommendations, awareness campaigns, regulations/legislations and state-of-the art reports by national/international projects and conferences. The target audiences of large stakeholders (e.g., American Heart Association, European Society of Cardiology, Centre of Disease Control and Prevention) were female citizens, health professionals and researchers. Much as policy makers have recognized the sex/gender gap in CVD field, there is still much to be done. Thereby, tailor-made strategies,shouldbe designed, evaluated and delivered on a global, yet most importantly a national basis, to achieve gender equity against CVDs.

Published: May 2022

Mucormycosis is a form of fungal infection that is invasive and rapidly progressive, thereby including nose and paranasal sinuses of the head and neck region with high mortality and morbidity. Compromised immunity such as uncontrolled diabetes mellitus, Leukaemia, long-term use of steroids are the most common causes of the disease. Acute surgical resection is performed that involves the resectioning of the affected maxillofacial structures such as orbit, maxilla and / or nose in such conditions. Prosthodontic rehabilitation of these large maxillofacial defects is challenging. Lack of retention due to dislodging forces exerted by scarred post-surgical soft tissues, lack of bony base, missing structures of the posterior palatal seal area, multiple defect sites and compromised medical status due to comorbidities are the numerous problems are encountered during the rehabilitation of such defects. The basic principle of any prosthetic rehabilitation design includes the preservation of the remaining natural tissues along with retention, stability, support, and aesthetics. Fixed or Removable Prosthodontic rehabilitation can be performed depending on the available supporting structures.

Published: May 2022

In vitro evaluation of nitrofurantoin as an intracanal medicament against Enterococcus Faecalis. Materials and Methods: 150 single-rooted premolar teeth were chosen and instrumented using a Protaper gold rotary file system; the root canals of these teeth were inoculated for 21 days with an Enterococcus faecalis bacterial solution. The canals were inoculated with Nitrofurantoin, Calcium hydroxide, and MTAP after 21 days and left for 7 days. On the eighth day, the samples were examined to determine the degree of infection. The study's findings revealed that both Nitrofurantoin and MTAP were very successful, with no Colony Forming Units (CFU) production in their respective groups. The current investigation indicated that nitrofurantoin is effective in eradicating E. faecalis cells in pure culture as well as root canals.
Review and analysis of COVID-19 lung lesion segmentation technique and algorithms
Authors: Salini S. , Ivy B. Persis Urbana
Published: May 2022

COVID-19 is a rapidly spreading disease over the world, yet hospital resources are limited. A recent COVID-19 study reveals that CT imaging can be used to detect disease progression and aid diagnosis, as well as to better understand the disease. Many new studies suggest that deep learning could be used to swiftly and effectively detect COVID-19 in chest CT scans. The problem of automatically segmenting the lungs in CT scans of individuals with confirmed or suspected COVID-19 is intriguing. CT chest scan images allow us to analyze and categorize COVID-19's normal and abnormal properties in a comprehensive way. Segmenting and detecting suspicious areas in the images is done by the platform, which then assesses these regions to get an accurate categorization. Deep learning models can benefit from broad receptive fields that can learn contextual information and COVID-19 infection-related features for more accurate segmentation results. Deep learning models. More than 1800 annotated CT slices were used to construct and evaluate LungINFseg. For this purpose, we tested LungINFseg against 13 current deep learning-based segmentation techniques.

Non adherence is the major and unrecognized risk factor for the uncontrollable reduction for blood sugar.Type-2 diabetes mellitus and its complication are becoming more prevalent in India. Evidence abound that the most important predictor of reduction of morbidity and mortality due to diabetes complication is the level of glycemic control achieved through medication adherence.The purpose of this study was to evaluate the Medication adherence of patients with T2DM who received Insulin therapy and to identify other factors that can affect the medication adherence. A cross-sectional, observational study which was carried out for 6 months on Paul Moses Hospital in Chennai. A total of 100 patients with type 2 DM on insulin therapy for atleast 1 year were recruited. Blood Glucose level and other details of comorbidity were noted. 84% of patients were administered Insulin subcutaneously. Most common comorbidity observed in the diabetic patients was hypertension.  Medication Adherence was assessed using validated predefined questionnaire and adherence scores were calculated. The most common factors for non-adherence in male were too busy with their work (62.79%) and in female was inconvenience (62.79%). The p-value is < .05 reports that its significance incomparison of adherence and non-adherence.

Acute recurrent pancreatitis (ARP) is a clinical condition characterized by repeated episodes of acute pancreatitis; ARP is therefore diagnosed retrospectively by clinical definition after at least the second episode of acute pancreatitis. To evaluate the etiology and risk factors of recurrent acute pancreatitis. Institutional prospective Observational study. The study was done in Department of Surgery of a tertiary care Centre. 1 year. Patient admitted in ward and intensive care unit in tertiary care hospital with recurrent attack of acute pancreatitis. A total of 100 were included in the study. Simple Random sampling method. Informed consent was taken from all participants before inclusion in the study. After admission to the hospital, a detailed clinical history along with thorough clinical examination of the patient was done. Relevant investigations were undertaken to make the diagnosis. Most common associated complications were pseudocyst of pancreas (13%) followed by splenic vein thrombosis (4%). Pancreatic abscess, necrosis and superior mesentric vein thrombosis was reported in 2 cases each (2%). Recurrent Acute pancreatitis is a common clinical condition. After confirming the attacks are truly pancreatitis, the etiology was identified in about 70% of cases with thorough investigations while 30% still remained idiopathic.

The research objective is to identify the anxiety characteristics of Covid-19 patients undergoing self-isolation in Indonesia. A cross-sectional study was conducted from January to July 2021 to assess the anxiety level of COVID-19 patients undergoing self-isolation. The population of this study is 100 people who have been exposed to the COVID-19 virus and are undergoing independent isolation spread from various regions in Indonesia. The main criteria for including participants/respondents in this study were patients who were exposed to the COVID-19 virus, were undergoing self-isolation, and were willing to become respondents by filling out a questionnaire via the WhatsApp link. The highest anxiety perception was on the feeling of anxiety item with a mean of 1.39, then the second was feeling of restlessness with a mean of 1.27, and sleep disturbances with a mean of 1.19.  Age has a significant effect on the occurrence of anxiety in Covid patients who undergo self-isolation. Meanwhile, gender, education, occupation, exposure to information, and length of isolation did not significantly affect the incidence of anxiety in COVID-19 patients t.
Método histórico e investigación social

La Historia es un proceso contingente y abierto, resultado de la praxis humana. Y, si bien la historia posee  regularidades estudiadas por diferentes escuelas, para la concepción materialista de la historia no tiene un final cerrado, ni una dirección unívoca determinada de antemano. Su pasado, su presente y su futuro dependen del resultado de la lucha de clases y de la objetividad de su enfrentamiento. Esto es lo esencial para explicar la existencia de estas clases sociales. Y, podríamos decir hoy, para intentar ir hacia otro sistema o para continuar en la barbarie. Es necesario intentar, por lo menos, analizar la historia pasada desde ‘abajo’, y no desde la mirada de los dominadores y supuestos triunfadores, sino desde la rebeldía de los pueblos sometidos y las clases explotadas. La historia surgió con el fin de conocer los acontecimientos por los que los seres humanos habían pasado. Por tanto, al tener como objeto de estudio un aspecto de la realidad humana, no puede extrañar, ni que tenga un procedimiento para indagarla -es decir, un método-, ni que éste sea disímil del que usan disciplinas que investigan otro aspecto, distinto, de esa misma realidad humana. La historia es un estudio elaborado científicamente y cuya finalidad es llegar a conocer al hombre y sus múltiples actividades y creaciones materiales e inmateriales realizadas en otros tiempos, con las que ha cubierto el tiempo y el espacio en la tierra. Al pasar de los tiempos, muchos historiadores, científicos, filósofos, y hasta estadistas, han intentado manifestar sus ideas frente al quehacer de la investigación histórica, desde puntos de vista positivistas, del llamado materialismo histórico, de la calidad y cantidad y hasta de los tipos de fenómenos humanos, sociales y económicos del hombre en desarrollo. Así se han generado con ellos, diversos métodos que presentan el Método Histórico en sí, que tuvo una fuerte influencia en el desarrollo del conocimiento histórico a partir del siglo XIX.
comprensión científica del ser humano y sus implicaciones para la educación
Authors: Luis Armando González
Published: May 2022

En este ensayo se realiza una puesta al día sobre los aportes científicos en torno a la naturaleza del ser humano. Se trata de un panorama provisional, pues en las disciplinas que intervienen en el debate —biología evolutiva, paleoantropología, psicología cognitiva, entre otras— se están generando contribuciones teóricas y empíricas mediante las cuales se afina cada vez más la comprensión científica del recorrido evolutivo y las características de la especie Homo sapiens, a la cual pertenecemos todos los seres humanos que habitamos el planeta en la actualidad. Asimismo, en el ensayo se reflexiona sobre las implicaciones educativas que tienen (o que deberían tener) los conocimientos científicos más recientes sobre el ser humano.
The Soul Is a Biophysical Reality: Review of the Experimental Evidence
Authors: J Scherlag Benjamin
Published: May 2022

Introduction: In the present report, we studied the responses of a dwarf form of the unicellular organism, Stentor coeruleus, at the life/ death interphase. Methods: Uncovered deep well slides were filled with culture media containing the large forms of Stentor coeruleus. On evaporation of the culture medium, the cell membrane of these larger forms disrupted. When rehydrated 24 hours later the micronuclei previously released from the dying cells showed the formation of numerous, mobile dwarf cells. Chlorinated tap water added to the medium was used to induce cell death. Results: The initial indication of the dying dwarf cell is “blebbing,” a signature of programmed cell death known as apoptosis. Within 8-12min, the stationary dwarf cell progressively released a morphological replicate of the dead cell before the replicate faded into the ambient environment. In other experiments, just prior to fading, the slide was exposed to a magnetic field (75 milligaus) which caused a retraction of the replicate back into the dwarf cell. Subsequently, the cells resumed their previously mobile activity. Conclusions: These findings support the hypothesis that a phenomenon analogous to the characteristics ascribed to the soul in the metaphysical literature can be demonstrated in the laboratory. We suggest that the responses shown by this unicellular organism at the life/death interphase may be conserved across the evolutionary spectrum.
Analysis of Search and Rescue Tactics in Single-Story Single-Family Homes Part I: Bedroom Fires
Authors:   UL's Fire Safety Research Institute, Weinschenk Craig
Published: May 2022

Prior full-scale fire service research on the residential fireground has focused the impact of ventilation and suppression tactics on fire dynamics. This study builds upon prior research by conducting 11 experiments a purpose-built single-story, single-family residential structure to quantify the im- pact of how search and rescue tactics are coupled with ventilation and suppression actions and timing. Each fully furnished structure included four bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and an open-floor kitchen and living room. The structures were instrumented to quantify post-ignition toxic gas and thermal conditions. Temperature, velocity, and pressure were measured to evaluate the fire dynamics. Gas concentrations and heat fluxes were measured to quantify toxic and thermal exposures. Across this series of experiments, the impact of isolation of fire and non-fire compartments, the timing of search actions relative to suppression actions, and the influence of isolation, elevation, and path of travel during rescue were examined with respect to firefighter safety and occupant tenability. Similar to previous experiments in both purpose-built and acquired structure, the data showed that prior intervention locations lower in elevation and/or behind closed doors had lower toxic gas and thermal exposures compared to locations at higher elevations or locations that were not isolated. Lower elevations were also shown to have lower toxic gas and thermal exposures during the removal of occupants as part of rescue operations. For scenarios where search operations occurred prior to suppression, isolation of spaces from flow paths connected to the fire compartment was shown to be effective at reducing the thermal operating class for firefighters and the toxic and thermal exposure rates compared to spaces that were not isolated. Following isolation, exterior ventilation was found to further reduce the toxic gas and thermal exposures in the protected space. Suppression, from either interior and exterior positions, was effective at reducing the thermal operating class for searching firefighters and the rate of thermal exposure increase to occupants. Following suppression, additional exterior ventilation increased the rate at which gas concentrations returned to pre-ignition levels.
