The article presents the results of studies of buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench) plants as a source of bioflavonoids – biologically active compounds of polyfunctional action. Buckwheat is the only agricultural crop in Kazakhstan that contains rutin. Modern pharmacological studies show that rutin helps lower blood cholesterol levels, exhibits high antioxidant activity and is used in the treatment of many chronic diseases. In the process of research, the gene resources of buckwheat (varieties, hybrids, populations) were studied and the content of rutin in the aerial parts of plants was determined. The dynamics of rutin accumulation in buckwheat plants was revealed, the presence of a relationship between the content of rutin and the main breeding and economic traits was established. A promising source material with a high content of rutin has been isolated for use in the breeding process. For the first time, the quantitative parameters of the content of rutin at various stages of the ontogenesis of buckwheat in the conditions of northern Kazakhstan were determined. The phases of plant development with the maximum concentration of rutin have been established. The initial material of buckwheat with a high content of rutin was evaluated for a complex of useful features. The variability of the color of the plant and grain (nucleus) as a marker for the selection of plants with a high content of rutin was studied. As a result of the research, the possibility of using the entire vegetative mass of buckwheat (flowers, leaves, stem) of various biotypes as a raw material for the production of rutin with the extraction of the target product has been shown.

The study aimed to empirically investigate the effectiveness of personalized adaptive learning in mathematics. To clearly explain this approach, we have deeply analyzed and used a mixed methodological approach to analyze satisfaction with the learning environment, perception, and attitude to the content provided, as well as general experience and personalized adaptive experience in the context of an electronic learning environment in mathematics. The students were distributed according to one of two conditions: an electronic learning environment known as personalized adaptive learning, and the same learning environment without the integration of a personalized adaptive learning platform. The necessity of using statistical methods for a reliable assessment of the results of experimental work in pedagogical research is considered, as well as the results of using two statistical criteria, and the difficulties that may arise during their implementation are analyzed on a practical example. To evaluate the effectiveness of adaptive personalized technologies, it was planned to use the Fisher criterion and the Student's t-criterion. They were chosen because they are based on two different types of scales: ordinal and interrelated.

The article illustrates the data of studies of hematological indicators of the Kazakh breed of horses of the Zhabe type. To obtain a hematological profile, whole blood samples of 54 clinically healthy adult horses of the Type Zhabe of both sexes, raised on the pure pasture content of the farm "Kyzylsok" Zhambyl region, Muzey Zhambyl, Seriktas, were examined on the hematological analyzer MS 4-3Vet (France). The results of the blood test were recorded in winter and the intervals were set especially for erythrocyte parameters: hematocrit (Hct) 35.8 - 49%, hemoglobin 10.8–16.7 g/dl, the number of erythrocytes - 6.83–9.28 (m/mm3); leukocytes (m/mm3) - 9.41-24.37, lymphocytes % - 26.9–49.8 and monocytes % 1.5–5.9; platelet count 312-710 (m/mm3). Significant (P <0.05) differences were noted for the number of red blood cells, the total number of red blood cells, the number of leukocytes (TLC), depending on gender. In addition, clearly differentiable morphometric and morphological signs of erythrocytes, leukocytes (lymphocytes and monocytes) and thrombocytes were noted. Under the influence of the peculiarities of the habitat, an ecological and geographical type of the Kazakh horse, which is called Zhabe , has been formed in the mountainous regions of the republic, having pronounced morpho-hematological characteristics that provide an optimal level of regulation of vital aNctivity and stability of the organism. The hematological indicators indicated here can help in monitoring the health status of horses with hard maintenance through the use of diagnostics in veterinary medicine.

Coronary artery ectasia is dilatation of a segment of the coronary arteries leading to intense cardiac conditions. Among the patients undergoing angiography, it has a rare prevalence of 0.3 – 5.3%. It has been strongly associated with atherosclerosis as an evident cause of the dilation of coronary lumen. Objective: To determine the frequency of ectasia in patients of acute coronary syndrome undergoing coronary angiography. Methods: It is a cross sectional study conducted over six months. 160 patients from the Department of Cardiology, Mayo Hospital, Lahore were enrolled that fulfilled the study criteria of 30-70 years of age, presenting acute coronary syndrome, and undergoing angiography. The Angiography was done by an expert surgeon, simultaneously observed by one of the researchers. Ectasia was diagnosed in all the 160 based on its operational definition. Socio-demographic information including name, age, sex, diabetes (BSR>200mg/dl), hypertension (BP≥140/90mmHg), smoking, and type of acute coronary syndrome was collected with informed consent. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS version 21. The chi-square test was practiced comparing ectasia in stratified groups of socio-demographic characters and type of acute coronary syndrome. Results: Ectasia was diagnosed in 54 (33.8%) patients. No significant association was seen between the age of patients and ectasia. However, frequency of ectasia was higher in patients in the age group 30-50 years. Frequency of ectasia was higher among male patients, but it was not statistically significant when compared with frequency of ectasia among female patients. No significant association was seen between ectasia and diabetes (p-value > 0.999), hypertension (p-value = 0.439) and smoking status (p-value = 0.140) of patients. Conclusions: Ectasia is a well-established condition of coronary artery but is an unconventional diagnostic finding of coronary angiography in patients affected with acute coronary syndromes.

Duck viral enteritis (DVE) also known as duck plague (DP) is a fatal viral disease of ducks globally that causes huge economic losses in the duck industries. The main objectives of the current study were: the isolation of the circulating duck viral enteritis virus (DVEV) from clinical specimens of field outbreaks, molecular identification of the virus and genetic characterization of DVEVThe natural outbreaks of duck plague (DP) were reported between February and June 2018 on three commercial duck farms located at Netrokona, Mymensingh and Nilphamari districts of Bangladesh. A total of 42 dead ducks were collected from the three farms. Postmortem examination of dead ducks was carried out and gross lesions of the visceral organs were recorded.Liver and spleen samples were collected aseptically and 10% viral inoculum was prepared from liver and spleen. Isolation of DVEV was done by injecting viral inoculum into 9-13 days old embryonated duck eggs through the chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) route.Molecular detection of DVEV in liver, spleen and CAM homogenate was performed by PCR targeting 446 bp fragment of DNA polymerase gene of DVEV. Phylogenetic analysis was carried out by comparing the amino acid sequence of field isolatesof DVEV with the amino acid sequence of global isolates of DVEV deposited in the GenBank. Enlargement of the liver and spleen, abdominal haemorrhage, and annular rings of the trachea were seen in the affected ducks which were characteristics gross lesions in DVE.18of 42 samples (42.85%) were found positive for DVEV by PCR assays. Embryos of duck experimentally inoculated with DVEV were found dead at 3-5 days post infection.Degenerated blood vessels of the CAM, dwarfism of the embryos was observed. The phylogenetic study revealed that the DVEV isolates causing disease outbreak in ducks in the current study were 100% similar to the isolates of DVEV thatpreviously reported from Bangladesh, Vietnam and China.

Authors: Cea D’Ancona M.ª Ángeles
Published: February 2024

La adecuación metodológica de la encuesta para la detección del racismo y la xenofobia viene debatiéndose en estudios anteriores. En el presente quiere avanzarse en su medición a través de encuesta. Primero se realiza una aproximación teórica de los conceptos de racismo y xenofobia, por sus distintas modalidades y aspectos que hay que cubrir en dicha medición, a partir de las investigaciones teórico-empíricas existentes. En segundo lugar se abordan los errores principales que pueden concurrir al registrar dichos fenómenos mediante encuesta. Después se desciende al nivel de los indicadores. Mediante la articulación de técnicas analíticas multivariables (conglomerados y discriminante) en muestras de análisis y de validación, se evalúa la efectividad de indicadores tradicionales en las encuestas del CIS, que se comparan con «nuevos» anteriormente aplicados en la Encuesta Social Europea de 2002-2003. Estos últimos acaban mostrando mayor efectividad en la medición del rechazo a la inmigración, debido principalmente al formato de pregunta que adoptan en el cuestionario.

Introducción. El uso de los medicamentos para tratar el VIH-1 ha sido relacionado con la farmacorresistencia adquirida, que ha ido en incremento durante los últimos años.  Objetivo. Describir el perfil de resistencia adquirida del VIH-1 en pacientes adultos, atendidos en 9 Unidades de Atención Integral del VIH de Guatemala.  Metodología. Se analizó 61 registros de pacientes adultos VIH positivo, 41 en primer fallo y 20 en fallo múltiple, a quienes se solicitó la prueba de genotipo de enero del  2020 a junio del 2021. El análisis se realizó en el software DeepChek® v2.0, para la clasificación de la resistencia se siguió el algoritmo de Stanford HIVdb (v9.4 - 17/12/2022).   Resultados. El 82.0% (IC 95% 70.0 - 90.6%) presentó resistencia a alguna familia de ARVs. La mayor resistencia por familia fue para los INNTR, principalmente EFV (94.4%)  y NVP (97.2%) en pacientes con fallo a primer esquema y 92.9% para cada medicamento en pacientes con fallo a múltiples esquemas. Las mutaciones más frecuentes fueron M184V/I (54.0%, 24.0%) y K103N/S (58.0%, 22.0%) en fallo a primer esquema  y fallo múltiple, respectivamente; y la I54V (6.0%) en pacientes con fallo múltiple.  Conclusión. La elevada resistencia adquirida al VIH-1 en pacientes atendidos en distintas regiones del país, muestra la importancia de disponer/ampliar la cobertura a nivel nacional de  pruebas de CV de VIH-1 para identificar tempranamente fallo a TAR y medicamentos óptimos para cambiar lo más pronto posible el esquema de ARVs en caso de fracaso confirmado del tratamiento.
Síndrome inflamatorio de reconstitución inmune en pacientes con VIH

Published: February 2024

Introducción: El síndrome inflamatorio de reconstitución inmune es un síndrome clínico que se ha descrito en pacientes infectados por el virus de inmunodeficiencia humana después del inicio de la terapia antirretroviral como consecuencia de una supresión viral y aumento en el número de células T CD4+ medible.

Desarrollo: Es una importante complicación después del inicio de la terapia, asociada con una considerable morbilidad y mortalidad, sobre todo en pacientes que comienzan el tratamiento y tienen una severa inmunosupresión. Aunque hay una considerable heterogeneidad clínica y fisiopatológica, las características incluyen: deterioro clínico en las primeras semanas o meses de tratamiento antirretroviral, con evidencia de inmunopatología tisular y, en ocasiones, respuesta inflamatoria sistémica.

Aplicaciones prácticas: El hecho de que constituye una respuesta predecible, permite determinar el inicio de la terapéutica, dígase en el hogar o en una institución de salud, planificar el seguimiento del paciente y predecir que existe una enfermedad oportunista oculta y concomitante con el VIH.

Conclusiones: Es una complicación frecuente en los pacientes con VIH que inician el tratamiento antirretroviral con un impacto muy negativo debido a la morbimortalidad asociada y al costo sanitario y social que implica. En la bibliografía especializada se encuentran pocas evidencias sobre su comportamiento.
