Insights into Cosmeceuticals
Authors: Arora Gulhima
Published: August 2021

A cosmetic is “intended to be rubbed, poured, sprinkled, or sprayed on, introduced into, or otherwise applied to the human body for cleansing, beautifying, promoting attractiveness, or altering the appearance” while a drug is “intended for use in diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease, i.e. it affects the structure and function of the body.” Cosmeceuticals attempt to interface between a pure cosmetic and a drug. They are those which lie between a prescription and a non-prescription over-the-counter product. They are medical products, which are cosmetics, with functional benefits for the skin, hair, and nails. Cosmeceuticals are disease-treating and disease-modifying. Dermatologists form a unique interface between products with perceived advantages and those with proven efficacy. In an attempt to hard-sell products with minimal side effects, certain compounds may contain subtherapeutic doses of topical agents hence rendering them ineffective. On the other hand, certain products may form a useful bridge with a safety profile better than cosmetics in their class. This article reviews commonly available and evolving cosmeceuticals, their rationale, side effects, and use in dermatology practice with the aim to sensitize dermatologists about their perceived usefulness.
Hermaphroditism of bivalves Anadara tuberculosa and Anadara similis Sowerby 1883 (Arcidae) in Colombian Pacific mangroves
Authors: Lucero Carlos , Cantera Jaime , Gil Diego
Published: August 2021

The hermaphrodite condition of the cockles Anadara tuberculosa and Anadara similis, gonochoric species living in mangroves of the Pacific coast of Colombia, are described in this paper. The gonads of 290 individuals of A. tuberculosa and 336 individuals of A.
similis collected in five localities of the Colombian Pacific coast were analyzed using histological methods. Our results exposed that 3.1 % of A. tuberculosa and 3.0 % of A. similis analyzed showed signs of both ovules and spermatozoids, as well as simultaneous sexual maturation. Based on this frequency of occurrence of hermaphrodite individuals and the fact that hermaphrodite organisms were present in most of the sampling sites, we conclude that hermaphroditism is a normal rather than casual condition of these two species. We suggest that future studies in the hermaphroditism of these organisms center on the determination of factors potentially affecting this condition.
Spatial distribution and increase of microplastics over time in sediments of Buenaventura Bay, Colombian Pacific
Authors: Vásquez Daniela , Molina Andres , Duque Guillermo
Published: August 2021

The increase in production, consumption and inadequate disposition of plastics has generated an accumulation of these elements in marine ecosystems, which have become important microplastics sinks (< 5 mm). The objective of this research was to determine the temporal and spatial differences in the density, distribution, and type of microplastics in the sediments of Buenaventura Bay. For this purpose, sediment samples were collected in the internal estuary (close to the rivers) and in the external estuary (with a greater marine influence). Samples were obtained in the dry, transition, and rainy season for the years 2015 and 2019. Microplastics were extracted by density separation method, each particle was classified and measured by optical microscopy. Density ranged from 11 to 1,354 particles/kg, with averages of 194.9 ± 51.3 and 359.6 ± 88.0 particles/kg for the years 2015 and 2019, respectively, reporting an increase of 84.4 %. The internal estuary presented a higher density in both years and the fibers constituted the most common form of microplastic particles, with 63.7 % for 2015 and 56.03 % for 2019. The presence and increasing accumulation of microplastics generates risks and adverse effects for the marine communities; additionally it coul compromise the food safety for coastal human populations.

Published: August 2021

I n order to contribute to the sea bottoms knowledge of the Seaflower Biosphere Reserve (RB Seaflower), a mapping update was made at 1:50,000 scale of the Seascape Ecological Units (SEU) for the Serrana, Roncador and Quitasueño atolls, based on the processing and interpretation of ALOS AVNIR – 2 satellite images acquired in 2012. For the attribute assignation was used as reference cartographic products, fieldwork data, and ecological descriptions of the benthic community. A total of 138,967 ha and 30 SEU, which corresponds to 32,908 ha for Serrana, 4,861 to Roncador and 101,198 to Quitasueño. The products generated represents a good approximation of the location, extension and distribution of the benthic seascape elements, constituting the base line information for the management of these atolls, they are also part of the Continental, Coastal and Marine Ecosystem Map of Colombia at scale 1:100,000 (MEC 100K) and the Colombian Coral Areas Atlas (AACC) updated on a digital platform to 2020. However, more extensive field work is needed for cartographic purposes, which allows for greater spatial and thematic detail, and to evaluate cartographic reliability
Submeso-scale Mixing Features in the Gerlache Strait Bays (Antarctica)
Authors: Mojica Jhon , Holland David , Monroy Julio
Published: August 2021

Measurements of turbulence in the ocean are sparse, especially in environments such as Antarctica. Here we map the spatial distribution of diapycnal diffusivities and the water column characteristics across the three main bays in the Gerlache Strait on the western side of the Antarctic Peninsula. The measurements were recorded during the Fifth Colombian Antarctic Expedition, 2018-2019, using a Vertical Microstructure Profiler in free fall for the first 400 m depth, to record fluctuations of vertical shear at dissipation
scales (10-3 – 103m). Diapycnal diffusivities are higher by 1-2 orders of magnitude in the Gerlache mainstream compared with the interior bays, with values from O (log10kρ = -3 m2 s -1) to O (log10kρ = -5 m2s -1) respectively over the upper 400 m. The highest mixing values were recorded in the southern section of Gerlache Strait (Flandes Bay) compared to the northern one (Charlotte Bay), indicating better wellmixed water in the south. Observed Hot Spots of higher turbulence levels may be associated with the interaction of the entrance of the Upper Circumpolar Depth Water, the Antarctic Surface Water, and the Weddell Sea Deep Waters with resident waters and topography.

I
n order to contribute to the base line of knowledge that is being built of the Gerlache Strait and the adjacent areas, the echinoderms collected during the Scientific Expeditions from Colombia to Antarctica carried out between 2016 and 2019 as part of the project “Biodiversity and oceanographic conditions of the Gerlache Strait, Biogerlache-Antártica” are presented. Eleven stations between 54 and 523 m deep were sampled, using sediment dredgers that captured incidentally some individuals from the mega and macro-epifauna, which were separated, reviewed and identified. Twentynine (29) individuals were obtained in five of the sampled stations, belonging to 13 morphotypes. Ophiuroidea was the richest class (five morphotypes), followed by Holothuroidea (four), Asteroidea (two) and Crinoidea (two). Morphological and distribution comments are presented, as well as general and detailed images of each morphotype. Among the contributions to the inventory of echinoderms in the area, it is highlighted the sea cucumber genus Taeniogyrus Semper, 1867 that is registered for the first time for the Antarctic peninsula and the crinoid species Anthometrina adriani (Bell, 1908) that extends its geographical distribution, confined to the high-Antarctic shelf, up to the Gerlache Strait ( 64° 39 ‘S).

Pulmonary embolism remains a fatal and frequent complication of thromboembolic disease despite the development of preventive methods. Cancer patients are at higher risk of thromboembolism than those in the general population [1]. The thoracic CT angiography is the standard examination; it makes the diagnosis with certainty by showing the endoluminal thrombus. Saddle pulmonary embolism is a radiological term; it is defined by the presence of a thrombus overlapping the bifurcation of the main pulmonary artery extending to both right and left. It represents 2 to 5% of pulmonary embolisms [2]. We present the image of a hemodynamically stable 69-year-old patient followed for adenocarcinoma of the prostate who was referred in our training to a thoraco-abdomino-pelvic scanner for assessment and evaluation of his pathology. The chest CT revealed a hypo dense endoluminal thrombus of the pulmonary artery trunk extended to its right and left dividing branches (Figure 1). Abdominal sections showed an endoluminal thrombus of the right common iliac vein extending to the inferior vena cava (Figure 2).

The leading causes of death worldwide are ischaemic heart disease and stroke. These Cardiovascular Diseases (CVDs) are two of the main clinical manifestations of atherothrombosis. Above all, the major causes of this complex condition include genetic susceptibility along with lifestyle habits or behavioral risk factors such as smoking, physical inactivity, alcohol abuse, and unhealthy diets. The most important way to prevent atherothrombotic events is through lifestyle optimization. In particular, nutritional intervention plays a key role in the treatment and prevention of atherothrombosis, with specific dietary patterns as potential modulators of cardiovascular health. Nutraceuticals are substances derived from food and offer health benefits along with their nutritional value and could become promising agents in the prevention and treatment of CVDs, particularly for individuals or populations with low adherence to certain dietary patterns. However, for most nutraceuticals, the evidence for their use in cardiovascular health is limited and requires further attention. This review will summarize some nutraceuticals with strong evidence from large sample size randomized controlled trials for the primary or secondary prevention of CVDs.
Total cholesterol/high density lipoprotein-cholesterol ratio as an indicator of Dyslipidemia in hypothyroidism
Authors:   Associate Professor, Department of Biochemistry, CIMS, Chamarajanagar, INDIA., N Chandrika
Published: August 2021

Background: The thyroid hormones are involved in controlling metabolism, growth and functions of various organ systems of our body. Hypothyroidism, a very common endocrinopathy features reduced production of thyroid hormones. In hypothyroidism we encounter abnormal circulating lipid fractions which is termed as ‘Dyslipidemia’. The coexistence of dyslipidemia and hypothyroidism is associated with development of atherosclerosis. Aim: This research is undertaken to assess the potential of TC/HDL-C ratio to disclose dyslipidemia in hypothyroidism. Methodology: The study consists of two major groups, the ‘Cases’ comprising of Fifty hypothyroid patients and ‘Controls’, with fifty age and gender matched healthy adults. The Cases are further subdivided into Twenty ‘Known cases’ of Hypothyroid patients, already receiving treatment and thirty ‘New cases’. The ‘New cases’ sub group further is subdivided as Twenty-one ‘Overt hypothyroids’(OH) and nine ‘Subclinical Hypothyroids’ (SCH). The Biochemical parameters estimated in all subjects of the study includes, Serum TSH, T3, T4, Total Cholesterol (TC) and High density lipoprotein-cholesterol(HDL-C). TC/HDL ratio was then calculated . Result: The study shows a significant elevation (p = 0.05) in the TC/HDL-C ratio in hypothyroid patients (3.67 ± 1.02) when compared to healthy controls (3.29 ± 0.95). TC/HDL-C ratio is more elevated in OH (4.01 ± 1.28) than in SCH (3.46 ± 0.92). The levels in ‘New cases’ sub-group and OH sub sub group have significantly higher ratio than in healthy controls (p = 0.02 and p = 0.01 respectively). TC/HDL-C ratio value in “known cases’ group who are those hypothyroid patients on Levo-thyroxine therapy is (3.40 ± 0.61) less than those who are newly diagnosed. Conclusion: TC/HDL-C ratio is not only raised in hypothyroid patients but it is seen increasing with severity and prolonged duration of disease. The calculation of TC/HDL-C ratio should be routinely put into practice to detect hypothyroid patients with dyslipidemia.

Background: Among the various functions of liver, one function is synthesis of carrier proteins and metabolism of hormones and liver diseases, have been shown to be associated with various endocrinal disturbances. Aim of the study was to evaluate the spectrum of chronic liver disease and association between thyroid profile and severity of liver damage at a tertiary hospital. Material and Methods: Present study was single-center, hospital based, case-control study, conducted in 88 cases of liver cirrhosis/ chronic liver disease and 88 age/sex matched healthy controls (randomly selected from relatives attending OPD with patients) were studied. Thyroid function tests were done and compared among cases and controls. Results: In present study 88 cases of liver cirrhosis/ chronic liver disease and 88 healthy controls were studied. Mean age and gender were comparable in cases and controls and difference was not statistically significant. Most of cases had alcoholic liver cirrhosis (80.7 %), rest had non-alcoholic liver cirrhosis (12.5%) and chronic viral hepatitis (6.8%). As per Child-Pugh Score, most cases were from Child-Pugh B (42%), followed by Child-Pugh C (31.8%) and Child-Pugh A (26.1%). In present study free T3, free T4 and TSH were compared between cases and controls, abnormal values were noted in cases and statistically significant difference was noted. Serum thyroid profile abnormalities were noted as per advancement in Child-Pugh Score Classes and difference was statistically significant for free T3 and free T4. Conclusion: Thyroid function test abnormalities in circulating thyroid hormone concentrations were noted in patients liver cirrhosis as compared to healthy subjects and severe abnormalities were associated with advanced Child Pugh score.

Authors:   Junior Resident, Department of General Surgery, Sree Gokulam Medical College and Research Foundation, Venjarammoodu, Kerala, INDIA., Kumar Pooja A
Published: August 2021

Background: Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women; in 2004, it comprised 16% of all female cancers and was the cause of death for 519,000 women worldwide. Available data from the USA show that, between 2005 and 2006 the highest incidence rate of breast cancer was among women aged 75–79 years and the median age at the time of diagnosis was 61 years. In the UK, approximately 80% of cases occur in women over the age of 50 years, with the peak ages being 50–64 years. In the Eastern Mediterranean region (EMR), breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in women and the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Objective: A study to assess the awareness about risk factors of breast cancer among females, aged more than 20 years, in Manikkal Panchayat in Kerala. Methodology: The present cross sectional study was done by the Department of Community Medicine at Sree Gokulam Medical College, Venjaramoodu from March 2013 to April 2013 in Manikkal panchayat area. A total of 705 female study subjects aged more than 20 years who met the inclusion criteria were included in the study. The data was collected by interview technique in a pre-validated semi structured questionnaire and factors like socio demographic variables were collected. Results: Out of 705 women, in the present study we found that only 45.4% were actually aware about the breast cancer risk factors and diagnostic tools. We could also find that 8.8% of them have not practiced any screening method. Conclusion: Majority of the participants knew about the BSE (self examination of breast) but they lack knowledge regarding frequency and appropriate time to practice BSE. Thus, more educational programs could be designed to provide comprehensive information of breast cancer and BSE to improve women’s knowledge and awareness which can help in the early detection and reporting of breast cancer for the better treatment.

Introduction. Health is a resource for a mindful life of a human being. There are various health-related actions associated with maintaining of the health. Their implementation requires appropriate efforts related to motivation. The hypothesis of the study is the fact that functional abilities of a human being is significantly related to the level of his motivation for health.

The aim is to determine the level of motivation for health in patients and healthy people and to investigate its relationship with biodemographic and anthropometric parameters and the functional state of the cardio-respiratory system.

Material and methods. 577 healthy people and patients. There were 353 patients (61.18%) suffering from chronic diseases, and 224 (38.82%) healthy people (students). There were 317 men (54.94%) and 260 (45.06%) women. The average age of the examined people was (M ± S) 34.95 ± 17.71 years. Height and body weight were measured. The functional state of the cardio-respiratory system was assessed by integral indicators: adaptive potential of the circulatory system, level of physical condition, vital index, Skibinski index, Kerdo index, hand grip strength index. Health motivation was studied using a short questionnaire to determine locus control. The results of the survey were scaled into 4 levels of motivation: very low, low, medium and high.

Results. Among the examined patients and healthy people the medium level of

motivation for health prevailed – 55.11% (318/577), then was high level by the quantity of detected cases – 38.65% (223/577) and low level – 6.24% (36/577). Healthy people were dominated by a high level of motivation – 53.13% (119/224), and patients – by medium level: 62.04% (219/353). It is revealed that young people have a high level of motivation, and elderly people – low and medium levels of motivation. People with a body weight of less than 60 kg are characterized by a high level, and people with a body weight of 100 kg and more – a medium level of motivation. The predominance of a high level of motivation with satisfactory adaptive potential, a high level of physical condition, full compliance of respiratory function with body weight, as well as the predominance of a high level of motivation in people with above average and high relative hand grip strength was determined.

Conclusions. A high level of motivation for health prevails in healthy people, and a low level – in patients. There is a significant relationship between motivation for health and age, body weight, its functionality (the state of the cardio-respiratory system).

Vitamin D is a hormone of great importance for vital body activities, as well as for the modulation of the immune system. Being acquired by food, but mainly by exposure to sunlight. Although reduced levels of vitamin D can cause problems related to bone mining, the excess of this is responsible for processes of intoxication. The present work aims to describe the levels of vitamin D of patients treated by a reference laboratory in the health district of Maceió-Al, describing the main affected population and producing a comparison of the levels in relation to social isolation. For this purpose, laboratory records were used considering the period from November 2019 to November 2020 and producing comparisons to sexes, age and analysis period of patients. In total, 1,025 vitamin D tests were performed, of which 27.4% of the patients were male and the other 82.6% were female. During the defined periods, greater numbers of exams were performed in the period of social relaxation. During the analyzed period, higher levels of deficiency were observed in adolescent and, mainly, elderly patients, compared to sexes, women had a higher level of deficiency and the highest levels of vitamin D deficiency during the period of social isolation.

O presente artigo é uma análise das representações LGBTI+ em revistas de super-heróis e animações. Abordaremos mais a personagem da DC Comics John Constantine, bissexual, por ele ser um herói de uma grande editora, aparecendo junto ao Batman, Superman etc. Nossa metodologia é qualitativa, se pautando em uma análise inicial do campo de estudos e na sequência em uma análise mais aprofundada da própria personagem Constantine. Possuímos um aporte teórico que envolve, entre outros autores: Michel Foucault, Sarane Alexandrian e Dandara Cruz. Nossas conclusões envolvem ver como realmente houve uma mudança profunda ao longo do tempo, do fim do século XX ao começo do século XXI. Se antes esse tipo de questão não podia ser tão abordada, ou não podia ser abordada explicitamente, hoje há uma abertura maior para representações de personagens LGBTI+.
O “lugar” do liberalismo no Brasil do século XIX
Authors: Vasques Lucas Flôres
Published: August 2021

O “lugar” do liberalismo no Brasil do século XIX é alvo de grandes debates na filosofia política (RICUPERO, 2007). Assim, temos como objetivo mapear esse debate e fornecer uma síntese dessas posições. Para isso, faremos, primeiro, um retorno ao contexto de surgimento do liberalismo na Inglaterra e, posteriormente, avançaremos para seus princípios filosóficos em John Locke. Em seguida, demonstraremos como esses princípios filosóficos foram interpretados no Brasil em três posições: primeiro como “ideia fora do lugar” (SCHWARZ, 2000; NOGUEIRA, 1976), segundo como “uma ideia tende a encontrar seu lugar” (COUTINHO, 2000) e terceiro como uma “ideia que está em seu devido lugar” (FRANCO, 1976; BOSI, 2010).
Religiosidade no século XXI: misticismo, ateísmo ou indiferença
Authors: Martins Ricardo Capella
Published: August 2021

No presente artigo propomo-nos abordar a problemática das perceções de religiosidade na comunidade leiga e a indiferença religiosa, bem como questionar qual o papel da Igreja na renovação ou manutenção da fé visando compreender qual a profundidade do relativismo religioso na comunidade. Partindo de estudos prévios e fundamentados com bibliografia da especialidade, seguiremos para um estudo de campo realizado através de inquérito, visando confirmar as tendências descritas na literatura publicada. Conclui-se que a existência de um indiferentismo religioso na comunidade não se confirma no estudo de campo, mas sim de um catolicismo acomodado e apenas de fachada, que adopta aquilo que lhe convém e rejeita aquilo que é dificil, desagradável ou trabalhoso, nomeadamente o cumprimento de certos preceitos religiosos.

Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is primarily transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes and is responsible for reemerging disease internationally. Container habitats of immature Aedes mosquitoes are often found around residential areas, thus water-holding container investigation is an important vector control strategy. This study aimed to survey mosquito species in container inhabiting stages and water-holding containers associated with the CHIKV outbreak in urban areas within the 4 villages of Hat Yai district in Songkhla province during 2019. The results indicated that of the 75 houses surveyed, 34 had water-holding containers; 78 out of 438 containers were positive for mosquitoes; and 34 were positive for mosquito stages. The house index (HI), Breteau index (BI), container index (CI), and pupal index (PI) were 46.87, 93.75, 14.92, and 271.88 for case houses, respectively. Specific container index (SCI) showed discarded containers such as bottles, cans, and tires. The findings suggest that Aedes aegypti was predominant in the surveyed urban area and might be the vector responsible for CHIKV transmission in Songkhla province.

Ovitraps were set inside and outside of 15 households in December 2012 (dry season) and August 2013 (rainy season) in 2 communes (An Thanh and Phu Hoa) of Binh Duong Province in southern Vietnam. Eggs laid in the ovitraps were collected after 4 days, dried, and soaked in water. Hatched larvae were transferred to cups and reared to adulthood to identify the species. The rate of positive ovitraps did not differ between December and August for Aedes aegypti, but it was lower in December for Ae. albopictus. The number of eggs laid per ovitrap by Ae. aegypti did not differ between December and August, while that for Ae. albopictus decreased significantly in December in both communes. Moreover, Ae. albopictus laid eggs in ovitraps placed outside the households. Therefore, it is necessary for future studies to investigate whether the major source containers for oviposition had dried in the dry season or Ae. albopictus entered diapause, leading to these observations.
