Estimation of vastus intermedius electromyography: Comparison of three methods and their impact on the knee isometric extension moment predicted by an EMG-Driven model
Authors: de Oliveira Viviane B. , de Oliveira Liliam F. , Menegaldo Luciano L.
Published: September 2018

BACKGROUND:

Estimations of deep muscles electromyography (EMG) with surface electrodes can be usually performed only indirectly.

OBJECTIVE:

To investigate the impact of using different approaches for estimating vastus intermedius EMG on the moment sharing patterns among quadriceps femoris components (QF), obtained with an EMG-Driven model, as well as on the joint total moment estimation accuracy, by comparing the calculated knee moment with isometric dynamometer measurements.

METHODS:

Extensor knee moment and surface isometric EMGs from the four QF components were collected synchronously with knee moment from an isokinetic dynamometer, with the knee flexed at 80[Formula: see text] and moment level at 40% of the maximum. Neuromuscular excitations [Formula: see text] for each QF were derived from the EMGs. Three different estimates of vastus intermedius excitation [Formula: see text] were tested: (1) surface electrodes on the exposed portion of vastus intermedius; (2) average between vastus lateralis and vastus medialis; and (3) a regression equation to estimate VI EMG from the other QF components.

RESULTS:

No statistical differences were found among the relative moments, excitation signals, and estimation accuracy by using the three methods.

CONCLUSIONS:

The average between vastus lateralis and vastus medialis is the recommended choice for being the simplest one.

Published: September 2018

Semantic variant of primary progressive aphasia (svPPA) is typically associated with non-Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathology. However, some anatomopathological studies have found AD lesions in those patients. We compared brain perfusion SPECT of 18 svPPA patients with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers indicative of non-AD pathology (svPPA-nonAD) and three svPPA patients with CSF biomarkers indicative of underlying AD (svPPA-AD). All svPPA patients had severe left temporopolar hypoperfusion. SvPPA-nonAD had additional anterior cingulate and mediofrontal hypoperfusion, whereas svPPA-AD had greater left parietal and posterior cingulate involvement. Parietal damage in svPPA constitutes a biomarker for underlying Alzheimer pathology thus refining the classification of this PPA variant.

Published: September 2018

Background:

Volumetric quantification of structural MRI has been shown to increase the diagnostic accuracy of patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI); however, its implementation in clinical routine is usually technically difficult and time-consuming.

Objective:

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether volumetric information obtained from the free and easy-to-use online tool volBrain can improve correct identification of MCI patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) compared to visual reading.

Methods:

The study cohort consisted of 27 patients with MCI due to AD (AD positive) as determined by biomarker information and 26 cognitively normal controls (CN). Three blinded readers, 2 radiologists and 1 clinical dementia expert, assessed the patients’ MRI regarding brain atrophy and probability of underlying AD two times, without and with supporting volumetric information from volBrain. To assess diagnostic accuracy of volBrain measures alone, a simple sum score based on basic volumetric measures was developed and tested.

Results:

Correct patient classification by readers 1, 2, and 3 without a volumetric report was 73.6%, 77.4%, and 83.0%. With a volumetric report, correct classification increased for the radiological readers to 77.4% and 81.1%, respectively and decreased to 77.4% for reader 3. Usage of the volumetric report alone yielded the highest diagnostic accuracy of 84.9%. Diagnostic confidence increased significantly for radiological readers.

Conclusion:

Volumetric information from volBrain increases the radiologist’s diagnostic performance and confidence in identifying MCI patients with AD. We propose that such tools may be implemented in the routine diagnostic work-up of patients with suspected AD.
Abnormal Functional Brain Networks in Mild Cognitive Impairment and Alzheimer’s Disease: A Minimum Spanning Tree Analysis

Published: September 2018

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) disrupts the topological architecture of whole-brain connectivity. Minimum spanning tree (MST), which captures the most important connections in a network, has been considered an unbiased method for brain network analysis. However, the alterations in the MST of functional brain networks during the progression of AD remain unclear. Here, we performed an MST analysis to examine the alterations in functional networks among normal controls (NCs), mild cognitive impairment (MCI) patients, and AD patients. We identified substantial differences in the connections among the three groups. The maximum betweenness centrality, leaf number, and tree hierarchy of the MSTs showed significant group differences, indicating a more star-like topology in the MCI patients and a more line-like topology in the NCs and AD patients. These findings may correspond to changes in the core of the functional brain networks. For nodal properties (degree and betweenness centrality), we determined that brain regions around the cingulate gyrus, occipital lobes, subcortex, and inferior temporal gyrus showed significant differences among the three groups and contributed to the global topological alterations. The leaf number and tree hierarchy, as well as the nodal properties, were significantly correlated with clinical features in the MCI and AD patients, which demonstrated that more star-to-line topology changes were associated with worse cognitive performance in these patients. These findings indicated that MST properties could capture slight alterations in network topology, particularly for the differences between NCs and MCI patients, and may be applicable as neuroimaging markers of the early stage of AD.
NeuroEPO Preserves Neurons from Glutamate-Induced Excitotoxicity

Published: September 2018

Many experimental studies show that erythropoietin (EPO) has a neuroprotective action in the brain. EPO in acute and chronic neurological disorders, particularly in stroke, traumatic brain injury, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, has neuroprotective effects. We previously reported the neuroprotective effect of NeuroEPO, a low sialic form of EPO, against oxidative stress induced by glutamate excitotoxicity. In this paper, we analyze the effect of NeuroEPO against apoptosis induced by glutamate excitotoxicity in primary neuronal cultures obtained from the forebrains of Wistar rat embryos after 17 days of gestation. Excitotoxicity was induced after nine days of in vitro culture by treatment with a culture medium containing 100 μM glutamate for 15 min. To withdraw glutamate, a new medium containing 100 ng NeuroEPO/mL was added. Apoptosis was analyzed after 24 h. Images obtained by phase contrast microscopy show that neurons treated with glutamate exhibit cell body shrinkage, loss of dendrites that do not make contact with neighboring cells, and that NeuroEPO was able to preserve the morphological characteristics of the control. Immunocytochemistry images show that the culture is essentially pure in neurons; that glutamate causes cell mortality, and that this is partially avoided when the culture medium is supplemented with NeuroEPO. Activation of intrinsic apoptotic pathways was analyzed. The decreases in Bcl-2/Bax ratio, increase in the release of cytochrome c, and in the expression and activity of caspase-3 observed in cells treated with glutamate, were restored by NeuroEPO. The results from this study show that NeuroEPO protects cortical neurons from glutamate-induced apoptosis via upregulation of Bcl-2 and inhibit glutamate-induced activation of caspase-3.
Determination of platyphylline hydrotartrate by luminescence quenching of the complex yttrium (iii) with rutin
Authors: Beltyukova S. V. , Malinka O. V.
Published: September 2018

Drugs used in the form of salts of organic bases are often determined by the anionic portion of these salts. Thus, titrimetric, spectrophotometric, electrochemical, chromatographic and luminescent methods of analysis are proposed for the determination of various tartrate-ion preparations.

The purpose of this study was to develop a method of luminescent determination of platyphylline hydrotartrate in dosage forms using a luminescent probe-yttrium complex (III) with rutin (Rut).

The luminescent determination of platyphylline hydrotartrate is offered to use a complex of yttrium (III)–rutin in the presence of bovine serum albumin (BSA). It has been experimentally established that tartrate ions quench of luminescence intensity of the Y (III)–Rut complex in the presence of BSA. The spectral and luminescent properties of the Y (III)–Rut complex in the presence of BSA were studied. The luminescence spectrum of the Y (III)–Rut complex in the presence of BSA has a maximum at λ = 570 nm, in the presence of platyphylline hydrotartrate of luminescence intensity of the Y (III)–Rut complex decreases and the maximum luminescence shifts to the long wavelength region of the spectrum (λ = 590 nm). It was established that the maximum quenching effect of the luminescence intensity of the Y (III)–rutin complex in the presence of BSA could be observed at the pH 6.0–7.0, which was created in solution with the help of urotropine. It is known that the luminescence quenching may be caused by various processes, including reactions in the excited state, energy transfer, formation of complexes and collisional quenching. It can be assumed that the quenching effect of Y (III)–Rut complex due to the complexation reaction of Y (III) with platyphylline hydrotartrate, that leads to the destruction of the Y (III)–Rut complex. Luminescence quenching of the Y (III)–Rut complex in the presence of BSA by platyphylline hydrotartrate follows the Stern–Volmer relationship. The Stern–Volmer constant is 1 230 l/mol.

The luminescence method of the determination of platyphylline hydrotartrate in the dosage form (solution for injection) was developed. The received results were verified by method of spiked samples. The method is based on quenching of a rutin's molecular luminescence in the complex of the Y (III)–rutin by tartrate ions associated with the protonated form of platyphylline.

El Internet avanza a una gran velocidad y ofrece un amplio abanico de recursos. El uso que hagamos de las herramientas y de las redes sociales marcará nuestras acciones para comunicarnos y relacionarnos. Adolescentes y jóvenes son quienes más navegan, transitan y residen en la red dejando impregnada una huella digital, generando un mundo paralelo, donde las reglas del juego cambian, se reinventan continuamente, sin existir, aparentemente, límites. Se genera un espacio virtual en el cual las personas quedan expuestas, un entorno que en ocasiones es tomado para potenciar una violencia online adoptando diferentes formas de manifestarse. El presente artículo pretende recoger una breve aproximación teórica sobre la importancia y el impacto del Internet, y qué papel juegan las TIC en temas de violencia de género, a través de la investigación realizada y financiada por la Fundación BBVA, sobre la percepción que tienen el alumnado de 3º y 4º de la Educación Secundaria Obligatoria (ESO), en la manera de ejercer la violencia de género en entornos virtuales. Para ello se han utilizado instrumentos y técnicas de recogida de la información, como una encuesta online aplicada a 4,536 estudiantes de: Andalucía, Cataluña, Aragón Galicia, Islas Baleares y Canarias; se han realizado grupos de discusión y se han elaborado narrativas digitales. Los resultados manifiestan la necesidad de realizar acciones educativas para sensibilizar, concienciar, actuar y prevenir sobre la violencia en Internet.

En palabras de Bauman (2007) se viven tiempos líquidos en los que la incertidumbre es la constante, esto quiere decir que tanto en la sociedad, y por lo tanto en el entorno educativo, se sabe que las estructuras que conocemos  no perdurarán y por lo tanto no se consideran como un marco de referencia para la actividad humana y el desarrollo del individuo. A pesar de que la incertidumbre pareciera ser un problema, en realidad representa una oportunidad para el diseño  educativo en la que se puede aprovechar el movimiento generado por las tensiones que provoca en un sistema de actividad  o  en un sistema cognitivo para orientar las resoluciones  donde  se oriente  a una actividad expansiva del aprendizaje grupal o individual.

Dağıtımcı Liderlik: Kavramsal Bir Çerçeve
Authors: Yıldırım Nuray
Published: September 2018

Bu çalışmanın temel amacı son zamanlarda
üzerine oldukça sık çalışmalar yapılmakta olan dağıtımcı liderlikle ilgili bir
kavramsal analiz yaparak bu liderlik türünün okullardaki uygulamalarını analiz
etmektir. Ayrıca yapılan bu çalışmanın ileride dağıtımcı liderlikle ilgili yapılacak
olan amprik çalışmalara rehberlik edeceği düşünülmektedir. Dağıtımcı liderlik
bakış açısına göre çoklu liderler vardır (Spillane ve diğerleri, 2004) ve liderlik
aktiviteleri örgütlerde paylaşılır (Haris, 2007). Dağıtımcı liderlikte tek bir liderden ziyade
birden fazla lider söz konusudur. Bu liderlerden bazıları resmi olarak bir
liderlik pozisyonuna sahipken bazıları sahip değildir. Harris’e (2005) göre
dağıtımcı liderlik, liderlik hakkında daha geniş ve yaratıcı düşünmemizi
sağlar. Bizi tek insandan çok insana götürür. Çoklu seviyede çoklu liderliği
önerir. Dağıtımcı liderlik bakış açısını benimseyen bir okul öğrenciler,
öğretmenler ve diğer yardımcı personele geniş bir yer verir. Böyle bir okulda
lider görev ve sorumlulukları dağıtılır ve bu sayede bireysellikten uzaklaşılır
böylece başarı takımın başarısı olarak kabul edilir. Bu şekilde liderliğin
kişiler arasında dağılması, kişilerin kurumu daha çok benimsemesine ve başarıyı
elde etmek için çaba sarf etmesine neden olacaktır.

Published: September 2018

A field experiment was carried out to study the zinc-iron relationship in wheat (BARI Gom-26) plant grown under water stress condition in the field near net house of Soil Science Division, BARI, Joydebpur, Gazipur, during November 2015 to March 2016. The experiment was designed in a split plot on sixteen treatments comprising four irrigation treatments (regular irrigation, stopping irrigation at crown root initiation, stopping irrigation at booting stage and stopping irrigation at grain filling stage) and four foliar application of zinc and iron (control, 0.05% of zinc, 0.05% of iron and 0.05% of zinc +0.05% of iron). Zinc sulphate monohydrate (ZnSO4. H2O) and ferrous sulphate (FeSO4. H2O) were used as a source of Zn and Fe. The highest yield (4.01 t ha-1) was recorded in stopping irrigation at grain filling stage which was identical with regular irrigation. Water stress at crown root initiation stage had the most negative effect on growth and yield. Foliar application of zinc and iron played a major role on yield and yield components of wheat at later stages of growth. The results obtained from the present research showed that iron and zinc spray increased grain yield and quality of wheat and improved the effects caused by drought stress.Bangladesh J. Agril.

Genetic variability, heritability and correlation path analysis in mungbean (Vigna radiata L.wilczek)
Authors: Azam MG , Hossain MA , Alam MS , Rahman KS , Hossain M
Published: September 2018

The success of crop improvement program largely depends on the nature and magnitude of genetic variability, heritability and characters association. This experiment was undertaken to estimate the extent of genetic variability and relation between yield and related characters. Twenty eight mungbean genotypes were grown at Pulses Research Centre, Ishurdi, Pabna during kharif-I 2015 in a randomized complete block design with three replications to estimate the extent of genetic variability and association between yield and yield related traits. Analysis of variance revealed that all the traits showed highly significant difference among genotypes except seeds per pod. Pods per plant, plant height and 100 seed weight showed high genotypic coefficients of variation (GCV) and phenotypic coefficients of variation (PCV). High broadsense heritability coupled with moderate genetic advance as percent of mean was observed for 100 seed weight, days to flower and pods per plant suggesting preponderance of additive gene action for these characters and selection of such traits might be effective for the improvement of grain yield. Seeds per pod, plant height and pods per plant showed positive significant phenotypic and genotypic correlation with yield. The result of path analysis indicated that pods per plant had maximum direct effect on yield followed by plant height and 100 seed weight and they contribute 31% variation in yield.Bangladesh J.

The study was conducted to evaluate the effect of botanicals namely neem leaf extract, neem oil, mahogany oil, mahogany oil + mahogany cake, garlic extract, tobacco leaf extract along with an untreated control to manage brinjal shoot and fruit borer (BSFB). The percent shoot infestation reduction over control was the highest in mahogany oil + mahogany cake treated plot resulting 62.39%, 64.44%, 67.86% and 71.05% reduction at vegetative stage and early, mid and late fruiting stage, respectively. The same treatment provided the highest fruit infestation reduction over control resulting 86.70%, 85.08% and 85.50% reduction at early, mid and late fruiting stage, respectively. The lowest number of larvae per infested shoot was recorded 1.10 and 1.08 in the same treatment at early and mid fruiting stage, respectively but notat vegetative stage and late fruiting stages. The number of larvae per infested fruit was similarly lowest having 1.50, 1.06 and 1.07 at early, mid and late fruiting stage, respectively using the same approach. The maximum yield (35.82 t ha-1) was achieved in the mahogany oil + mahogany cake treated plot with the highest benefit cost ratio (2.35).Bangladesh J. Agril. Res. 43(3): 431-440, September 2018

At present, inclusion of Boron (B) in fertilizer management practice most often determines the yield performance of crops. Methods of supply of B to plants demands more research to come to a conclusion. The effect of different methods of boron application on the nutrient concentration and uptake of wheat (Triticuma estivum L.cv. Shatabdi) was studied through a field experiment at Bangladesh Agricultural University (BAU) farm, Mymensingh during rabi season of 2012-13. The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with six treatments and three replications. The treatments were- (i) B–control (no addition of B), (ii) soil application @ 1.5 kg ha-1, (iii) seed priming @ 0.4% boric acid solution, (iv) foliar spray @ 0.4% boric acid solution at primodia stage (37DAS), (v) foliar spray @ 0.4% boric acid solution at booting stage (55 DAS),and (vi) foliar spray at primodia stage (37DAS) and booting stages (55 DAS). Boric acid was used as a source of boron. Seed priming was done by soaking wheat seeds into 0.1% boric acid solution for 10 hours and then seeds were dried before sowing. Foliar spray of B at primodia and booting stage of crop (T6) recorded the highest B concentration of grain (19.60 μg g-1) and the control (T1) treatment performed the lowest B concentration (6.75 μg g-1). Similarly, the foliar spray of B at primodia and booting stages of crop (T6) recorded the highest B uptake by both grain and straw that was statistically identical to foliar spray of B at booting stage of crop (T5) in both cases. In view of cost-return analysis, foliar spray of B at primodia and booting stage treatment required the highest input cost but obtained the highest gross return, while control B required the lowest input cost along with lowest gross returnBangladesh J.

Another Look at Heideggerian Cinema: Cinematic Excess, Antonioni's Dead Time and the Film-Photographic Image as Copy
Authors: Josiah Mosely Michael
Published: September 2018

Within the loose group of studies that are sometimes labelled Heideggerian cinema – studies in which scholars consider film in conjunction with Heidegger's philosophy – little attention has been paid to Heidegger's actual view of cinema. This omission is not only odd (Heidegger's view of film would seem essential for a Heideggerian cinema) but it is also problematic. In the off-hand comments Heidegger directs towards film throughout his collected works he criticises the medium for its covering over of Being, a fact that makes engaging with film through Heidegger's thinking a questionable project. The present article aims to address this omission and to provide a conception of Heideggerian cinema that does not ignore, but answers, Heidegger's criticism. It argues that it is not the technological nature of cinema that is the source of Heidegger's hostility towards the medium but his conception of the film-photographic image as a transparent copy of the world. It is on this basis that cinema is denied the capacity to manifest Being and hence is subject to critique. I then argue that Thompson's notion of cinematic excess reveals that the film-photographic image need not be as transparent as Heidegger assumes and that a cinematic presentation of Being is possible. To explore this idea further the article considers the use of dead time by Michelangelo Antonioni, particularly in his film L'eclisse.
Mining Actinomycetes for Novel Antibiotics in the Omics Era: Are We Ready to Exploit This New Paradigm?
Authors: Genilloud Olga
Published: September 2018

The current spread of multi-drug resistance in a number of key pathogens and the lack of therapeutic solutions in development to address most of the emerging infections in the clinic that are difficult to treat have become major concerns. Microbial natural products represent one of the most important sources for the discovery of potential new antibiotics and actinomycetes have been one of the most relevant groups that are prolific producers of these bioactive compounds. Advances in genome sequencing and bioinformatic tools have collected a wealth of knowledge on the biosynthesis of these molecules. This has revealed the broad untapped biosynthetic diversity of actinomycetes, with large genomes and the capacity to produce more molecules than previously estimated, opening new opportunities to identify the novel classes of compounds that are awaiting to be discovered. Comparative genomics, metabolomics and proteomics and the development of new analysis and genetic engineering tools provide access to the integration of new knowledge and better understanding of the physiology of actinomycetes and their tight regulation of the production of natural products antibiotics. This new paradigm is fostering the development of new genomic-driven and culture-based strategies, which aims to deliver new chemical classes of antibiotics to be developed to the clinic and replenish the exhausted pipeline of drugs for fighting the progression of infection diseases in the near future.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the involvement of neutrophil dynamics and function in exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) and delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS), and the effect of molecular hydrogen (H2) intake on these parameters. Nine healthy and active young men performed H2 and placebo bath trial in a crossover design. They carried out downhill running (−8% slope) for 30 min at a speed corresponding to 75~85% of peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak). Subsequently, they repeated bathing for 20 min per day for one week. Degree of muscle soreness (visual analogue scale: VAS), peripheral leukocyte counts, neutrophil dynamics and function, muscle damage, and inflammation markers were measured. Plasma interleukin (IL)-6 concentration was significantly correlated with peripheral neutrophil count, VAS, and serum creatine kinase activity, respectively, after downhill running. Peripheral neutrophil count and serum myoglobin concentration were also significantly correlated. Conversely, there were no effects of H2 bath. These results suggest that IL-6 may be involved in the mobilization of neutrophils into the peripheral blood and subsequent EIMD and DOMS after downhill running; however, it is not likely that H2 bath is effective for the inflammatory process that is centered on neutrophils after downhill running.
Hiding Stealth Optical CDMA Signals in Public BPSK Channels for Optical Wireless Communication
Authors: Yen Chih-Ta , Huang Jen-Fa , Zhang Wen-Zong
Published: September 2018

A new optical steganography scheme is proposed that transmits a stealth optical code-division multiple-access (OCDMA) signal through a public binary phase-shift keying (BPSK) channel. Polarization beam splitters and arrayed waveguide gratings are used to implement a spectral-polarization coding (SPC) system with an incoherent optical source. We employ a Walsh–Hadamard code as the signature code of the user who wants to transmit stealth information using the system. A free space optical link applied to this system maintains the polarization states of light during propagation. The secret data are extracted using correlation detection and balanced subtraction in the OCDMA decoder of the intended receiver, and the other signal from the public channel is reduced by the OCDMA decoder. At the demodulator of the public channel, BPSK demodulation eliminates the stealth signal so that the public channel is not affected by the stealth signal. The two signals cannot interfere with each other. The results of this study show that our proposed optical steganography system is highly secure. The stealth signal can be favorably hidden in the public channel when the average source power of the stealth signal, public noise, and public signal are −5, −3, and 0 dBm, respectively.

Peroxy acetyl nitrate (PAN) is an important photochemical product formed from the reactions between volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) under sunlight. In this study, a field measurement was conducted at a rural site (the backgarden site, or BGS) of the Pearl River Delta (PRD) region in 2006, with the 10 min maximum PAN mixing ratios of 3.9 ppbv observed. The factors influencing the abundance of PAN at the BGS site was evaluated by the process analysis through the Weather Research and Forecasting-Community Multiscale Air Quality (WRF-CMAQ) model. The results suggested that the increase of PAN abundance at the BGS site was mainly controlled by the gas-phase chemistry, followed by vertical transport, while its loss was modulated mainly by dry deposition and horizontal transport. As the dominant important role of gas-phase chemistry, to provide detailed information on the photochemical formation of PAN, a photochemical box model with near-explicit chemical mechanism (i.e., the master chemical mechanism, MCM) was used to explore the relationship of photochemical PAN formation with its precursors based on the measured data at the BGS site. It was found that PAN formation was VOC-limited at the BGS site, with the oxidation of acetaldehyde the most important pathway for photochemical PAN production, followed by the oxidation and photolysis of methylglyoxal (MGLY). Among all the primary VOC precursors, isoprene and xylenes were the main contributors to PAN formation. Overall, our study provides new insights into the PAN photochemical formation and its controlling factors, and highlighted the importance of gas chemistry on the PAN abundance in the PRD region.
