Authors: Gao Lulu , Jin Baihan , Chao Ce , Wang Bin , Zhang Xiaoying , Shen Jiang
Published: June 2022

Background: This meta-analysis aimed to compare the potential effects of local anesthesia (LA) and general anesthesia (GA) for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).
Measurements: All relevant studies were searched from Pubmed, EMbase, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library (January 1, 2016, to June 1, 2021). The main outcomes of this literature meta-analysis were 30-day mortality, procedural time, new pacemaker implantation, total stay in the hospital, use of the vasoactive drug, and intra-and postoperative complications and emergencies, including conversion to open, myocardial infarction, pulmonary complication, vascular complication, renal injury/failure, stroke, transesophageal echocardiography, life-threatening/major bleeding, cardiac tamponade, and emergency PCI. Pooled risk ratio (RR) and mean difference (MD) together with a 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated.
Results: A total of 17 studies, including 20938 patients, in the final analysis, fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Intra-and postoperative complications (myocardial infarction, vascular complication, renal injury/failure, stroke, and cardiac tamponade) undergoing TAVI in severe AS patients under GA do not offer a significant difference compared with LA. No differences were observed between LA and GA for new pacemaker implantation, total stay in the hospital, transesophageal echocardiography, and emergency PCI. LA has lower mortality compared with GA (RR 0.69, P = 0.600), pulmonary complications (RR 0.54, P = 0.278), life-threatening/major bleeding (RR 0.85, P = 0.855), and lower times of conversion to open (RR 0.22, P = 0.746). LA has many advantages, including a shorter procedure duration (MD=-0.38, P = 0.000) and reduction of the use of the vasoactive drug (RR 0.57, P = 0.000).
Conclusions: For TAVI, both LA with or without sedation and GA are feasible and safe. LA appears a feasible alternative to GA for AS patients undergoing TAVI.

Authors: Baroroh Umi , Firmansyah Adang , Deni Deni , Maudyawati Lina , Zainuddin Ahmad
Published: June 2022

Despite the positive impact of the rapid industrial growth in Indonesia, it has caused several problems. The non-biodegradable pollutant, such as reactive dyes that result from the textile industry, is harmful to the environment and human health. This contaminating agent should be removed from the waste before being disposed to the surrounding ecosystem. Adsorption is one of the simple and low-cost techniques to eliminate dye from the effluent. Waste from coral reefs is interesting to be explored as a dye-removing adsorbent because it is abundant in nature, cheap, and reusable. Therefore, this study aims to determine the adsorption performance of coral reef waste in removing several dyes, i.e., methylene blue (MB), remazol brilliant blue (RBB), disperse orange (DO), and vinyl sulfone (VS) from wastewater. The adsorption capacity was determined to evaluate the effectiveness of coral reef waste in removing the dyes at the isotherm model. Adsorption capacity and isotherm model were used to evaluate the effectiveness of this natural adsorbent. Based on the percentage removal and coefficient distribution value, the removal selectivity of RBB was the best, followed by DO, VS, and MB, respectively. In conclusion, coral reef waste is promising to be developed as a low-cost adsorbent for removing dyes from wastewater.

The local communities have local knowledge in utilizing and managing landscape units. The threat of modernization has led to the degradation of local knowledge, including the Javanese community on Mt. Slamet. This study aimed to analyze the plant diversity characteristics of landscape units and determine the important value of landscape units and plant species used by the community. This research was conducted in the Ragatunjung, Cipetung, and Pandansari village, Paguyangan District, Brebes Regency, Central Java. Semi-structured interviews collected Ethnoecological data with eight key informants and 83 respondents selected by purposive sampling and snowball sampling. Data on the level of landscape utilization were analyzed using the Local User's Value Index (LUVI). The community recognizes nine types of landscape units, such as perawisan (yard), wanah (production forest), Majegan (gardens), Sabin (rice fields), Kubang buyut (protected forest plan), tea plantations, Telaga Ranjeng Nature Reserve, Tanah Bengkok and tuk (water sources). Wanah was the most important landscape unit in the community in Ragatunjung (31.27), Cipetung (53.55), and Pandansari (28.17). Oryza sativa had the highest importance value in Sabin (22) and wanah (12) of Ragatunjung. In contrast, Syzygium aromaticum had the highest in Majegan (6.68). Brassica oleracea has the highest importance value in the two landscape units of Cipetung, namely, Majegan (4.20) and settlements (3.5), while in the wanah is Zea mays (11.38). Solanum tuberosum had the highest value in each landscape unit in Pandansari, both in wanah (10.33), Majegan (6.80), and Protection Forest Plan (PFP) (4.13). Categorizing landscapes and their utilization by maintaining certain landscapes, such as the Telaga Ranjeng Nature Reserve and Kubang buyut, directly impact the sustainability and integrity of ecosystems and natural resources in and around the area.

Authors: Riyadi Anindita Della Rosa , Siswanti Dwi Umi
Published: June 2022

Basil plant (Ocimum americanum L.) is a fragrant annual plant widely cultivated by the people in Indonesia because it is useful and commercial. Previous research on salinity and drought stress in basil affects growth and development plant, cell turgor pressure, and the anatomical structure of the plant. However, research on the effect of alkalinity and drought stress in basil plants has not been carried out. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine the effect of variations in alkaline and drought stress on the growth and superoxide dismutase (SOD) content of basil plants. Alkalinity stress was carried out by variations of dolomite (D) doses which is divided into four levels, namely D1, D2, D3, and D4 (0 grams/pot, 100 grams/pot, 150 grams/pot, and 200 grams/pot) and variations of drought stress were divided into four types of field capacity, namely A1, A2, A3, and A4 (25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%). Parameters measured were plant height, leaf length and width, number of leaves, fresh and dry weight, SOD content, and environmental parameters. The growth of the basil plant (O. americanum L.) decreased after being given drought stress at a field capacity level of 25%, while the SOD content of basil (O. americanum L.) did not differ significantly but increased with the increase in dolomite doses and field capacity given.

Language awareness and the online experiences of transnational Chinese dual language teachers during the global pandemic
Authors: Chen Meiheng , Barros Sandro R
Published: June 2022

The experience of transnational teachers who serve in bilingual education programmes in the US remains, by and large, under-examined in the literature. To fill this gap, this study adopted a phenomenological methodology attuning, specifically, to the impact that the shift to online instruction had on the language awareness of five transnational Chinese teachers working at dual language immersion programmes during the Covid-19 pandemic. Using conversations with these professionals as the data source, and mobilising standard language ideology and translanguaging as interpretative frameworks, this study identified three aspects of teachers’ language awareness related to the transition online: (1) contradictions in the linguistic and curricular push towards achieving linguistic homogeneity within dual language immersion programmes, (2) the influence of monoglossic language policies in practical teaching decisions and (3) the surfacing of translingual pedagogies as a demand of the online space.
Comparison between optical and electrophysical data on free electron concentration in n-InAs samples

Published: June 2022

A theoretical model has been developed for determining free electron concentration in n-InAs from characteristic points in far infrared region of reflection spectra. We show that when determining free electron concentration one should take into account the plasmon-phonon coupling, otherwise free electron concentration will be overestimated. We have calculated electron concentration, Nopt, as a function of characteristic wave number, ν+, which is described by a third order polynomial. Twenty one n-InAs samples (5-doped with tin and 16-doped with sulfur) have been tested at room temperature for electron concentration using two methods, i.e., the conventional four-probe (Van der Pau) method (NHall) and the optical method developed by us (Nopt). The reflective surfaces of investigated samples were processed either with chemical-mechanical polishing or treating with short-grained abrasive powder.  It was shown that for all the investigated samples the condition Nopt > NHall was relevant. The difference between optical and electrophysical electron concentration values has been shown to be greater in case of chemically polished reflective surface of the sample and smaller in case of abrasive-treated one. The experimental results have been compared with the same data previously obtained for n-GaAs samples. Qualitative model has been suggested to explain obtained experimental data.

Published: June 2022

Lithium niobate (LN) is a ferroelectric material with a wide range of applications in optics and acoustics. Annealing of LN crystals in an oxygen-free environment leads to the appearance of black coloration and the concomitant increase in electrical conductivity due to chemical reduction. The literature presents many works on the study of the electrophysical properties of reduced crystals of LN, however, the contact phenomena arising during the measurement of electrical conductivity, as well as the interaction of the electrode material with the samples under study, are practically ignored. In this paper, the effect of chromium and indium tin oxide (ITO) electrodes on the results of measurements at room temperature of electrophysical parameters of LN samples recovered at 1100 °C is investigated. It was found that significant non-linearities in the voltage characteristics (I-V curve.) at voltages less than 5V do not allow to obtain the correct values of the resistivity of NL. This leads to the need to carry out measurements at higher voltages. By the method of pulse spectroscopy, it is shown that capacitances, including those formed, probably, in the contact areas, have a strong influence on the measurement results. It is shown that the results obtained are adequately described by a model assuming the presence of contactless tanks connected in parallel to the sample’s own capacity. A possible mechanism for the formation of such containers is described, and an assumption is made about the existence of a significant density of electronic states at the “electrode - sample” interface capable of capturing charge carriers, and with increasing annealing time, the concentration of captured carriers increases.

Introduction. Austenitic stainless steel AISI 304 is the most widely used type of stainless steel. However, it is subject to wear due to relatively low hardness, and also begins to oxidize intensively in air at a temperature above 800 °C. The use of coatings based on chromium boride can improve its tribotechnical properties and oxidation resistance. The purpose of the work: to study the effect of chromium diboride concentration in the anode mixture on the structure, wear behavior, oxidation resistance and corrosion properties of electric spark coatings on AISI 304 steel. The research methods. Electric spark treatment of AISI 304 steel was carried out in a mixture of iron granules with the addition of CrB2 powder in amount of 5, 10 and 15 vol.%. The structure of the coatings was studied by X-ray analysis, scanning electron microscopy, and electron dispersion spectroscopy analysis. The wear resistance of the coatings was studied under dry friction condition at a load of 10 N. The oxidation resistance test was carried out at a temperature of 900 °C for 100 hours. Results and Discussion. According to X-ray analysis, it is shown that under the conditions of electric spark exposure, CrB2 interacts with iron melt; this has resulted in the formation of chromium and iron borides. Corrosion properties, microhardness, coefficient of friction and wear are investigated in comparison with AISI 304 steel. Samples with coatings showed a lower corrosion potential and corrosion current density compared to the substrate in 3.5% NaCl solution and from 5 to 15 times higher oxidation resistance. The microhardness of the coatings increased from 6.25 to 7.60 GPa with an increase in the addition of chromium diboride in the electrode mixture. The coefficient of friction and the wear rate of all coatings were lower than that of AISI 304 stainless steel, while the coating prepared with the addition of 5 vol.% chromium diboride had the best tribotechnical characteristics.

Feminist, Southern, and decolonial thinkers have long argued that epistemological questions about how knowledge is produced and whose knowledge is valued and actioned are crucial in addressing inequalities, and a key challenge for planning. This collaborative article interrogates how knowledge is mobilised in urban planning and practice, discussing three experiences which have actively centred often-excluded voices, as a way of disrupting knowledge hierarchies in planning. We term these “emancipatory circuits of knowledge”—processes whereby diverse, situated, and marginalised forms of knowledge are co-produced and mobilised across urban research and planning, to address inequalities. We discuss experiences from the Technological University José Antonio Echeverría (CUJAE), a university in Havana, Cuba, that privileges a fluid and collaborative understanding of universities as social actors; the Sierra Leone Urban Research Centre, a research institute in the city of Freetown, which curates collective and inclusive spaces for community action planning, to challenge the legacies of colonial-era planning; and the Asian Coalition for Housing Rights, a regional network across Asia, which facilitates processes of exchange and co-learning which are highly strategic and situated in context, to advance community-led development. Shared across these “emancipatory circuits” are three “sites of impact” through which these partners have generated changes: encouraging inclusive policy and planning outcomes; shifting the planning praxis of authorities, bureaucrats, and researchers; and nurturing collective trajectories through building solidarities. Examining these three sites and their challenges, we query how urban knowledge is produced and translated towards epistemic justice, examining the tensions and the possibilities for building pathways to urban equality.

Ghrelin-dependent mechanisms of food reward. Part 1. Ghrelin and dopamine
Authors: Reikhardt Boris A. , Shabanov Petr D.
Published: June 2022

Feeding behavior includes both the satisfaction of metabolic nutrient requirements and the hedonic aspects of pleasure. The orexigenic hormone ghrelin increases motivation to food intake. In addition, by modulating the reward system, ghrelin enhances the rewarding properties of non-food stimuli. The dopaminergic mesolimbic system plays a key role in the mechanisms of reward. Ghrelin regulates the activity of this system by acting on several levels of brain organization. The hierarchy of ghrelin-sensitive neural networks, as well as afferent connections and reciprocal interactions between its components, mediating the effect of ghrelin on the process of motivation in metabolic and hedonic type of feeding are considered.

Authors: Vershinina Sofia F. , Yaremenko Kassinia V.
Published: June 2022

The work is devoted to the analysis of scientific research on the prevention of infectious diseases by adaptogens, proposed by a prominent domestic toxicologist and pharmacologist Professor Nikolai Vasilyevich Lazarev and the school of scientists he created. The role of adaptogens (dibazol, Eleutherococcus, Rhodiola rosea, Scutellaria Baicalensis) in creating a state of non-specifically increased body resistance (NSIBR according to N.V. Lazarev) for the prevention of viral diseases, including coronavirus infection, was evaluated. Analysis of the pharmacological properties of the synthetic adaptogen bendazol (dibazol) opened by N.V. Lazarev, showed that the drug has a number of positive properties: antiviral stimulates immunity to the attack of infectious agents, being an inducer of endogenous interferon; antiproliferative inhibits the replication of viruses inside the host cell; immunomodulatory corrects violations of the protective functions of the body. Dibazol also has a mild effect after vaccination, stimulating the production of immunoglobulins. These properties of dibazol make it possible to recommend it and herbal adaptogens (tinctures of Eleutherococcus, Rhodiola rosea, Scutellaria Baicalensis) for the prevention of coronavirus infection.

In this study, diploid chromosome number and constitutive heterochromatin distributions of chromosomes were determined in Gerbillus dasyurus and Meriones tristrami species. The diploid chromosome numbers (2n) and autosomal chromosome arms (NFa) of G. dasyurus and M. tristrami were determined as 2n=60, NFa= 68, and 2n=72, NFa= 73, respectively. It was found that there were differences in autosomal chromosomal arms (NFa) of two different gerbil species, the karyotypes of which were obtained in this study, compared to previously conducted studies in Türkiye. Heteromorphic chromosome pair (submetacentric/acrocentric) was found in the autosomal set of M. tristrami. There was an enlarged heterochromatin block on the short arm of submetacentric chromosome in heteromorphic chromosome pair.
Self-rated health and interviewer-rated health: differentials in predictive power for mortality among subgroups of Chinese elders
Authors: Zhu Haiyan , Feng Qiushi , Gu Danan
Published: June 2022

Interviewer-rated health (IRH) and self-rated health (SRH) have strong and independent predictive power for mortality, but their relative predictive power has not been examined among subpopulations. Because individuals from different subpopulations have distinct views, understandings, and judgments about health that influence their criteria and referents for SRH, we examine whether IRH is a valid predictor of mortality within subpopulations, which may provide added value for understanding its association with mortality. Using data from the 2005 and 2008 waves of the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey, this study modeled associations of SRH and IRH with mortality in various subgroups among 12,583 older adults in China. We found that IRH is a robust predictor of mortality, independent of SRH, across major demographic and socioeconomic subpopulations after adjusting for a wide range of covariates. The predictive power of IRH for mortality was generally more robust than that of SRH in most subpopulations. Our findings suggest that IRH could be a good complement to SRH among subgroups of the Chinese older population.
Does retirement affect alcohol expenditure? Evidence from urban Chinese older adults in 2002-2009

Exploiting China’s mandatory retirement policy, we used fuzzy regression discontinuity design to estimate the effect of retirement on household alcohol expenditure among urban Chinese older adults ages 50–70. Drawing on data from the Urban Household Survey of China Statistics Bureau for the period of 2002–2009, we found that having a retired male household head significantly reduced total household expenditure on alcohol by 32%. After breaking down by different types of alcohol, we found that the retirement effect was largely driven by expenditure on liquor. We explored two potential mechanisms that may explain the retirement effect. The first mechanism relates to decreased disposable income after retirement and the second mechanism involves reduced demand of social drinking after retirement. Our findings suggest that the urban Chinese older adults experience substantial change in such health behavior as drinking as they retire. This has important public policy implications as China is facing a severe challenge of rapid population aging.
Importance of Vascular Function in Patients with Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction
Authors: Kiuchi Shunsuke , Ikeda Takanori
Published: June 2022

There had been no effective cardioprotective medications for heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Therefore, treatment intervention at the hypertension (HT) stage (stage A), which is a major factor in HFpEF, is necessary. In fact, the SPRINT and STEP trials reported that strict and intensive blood pressure (BP) control was useful, reducing approximately 25% of the primary endpoints, including cardiovascular events. The effectiveness of BP reduction for HFpEF after the onset of HF (stage C or D) has been reported and shown to generally follow the J-curve phenomenon. Both left ventricular systolic/diastolic dysfunction and vascular failure are related with the pathophysiology of HF. In the case of coexisting vascular failure, BP lowering treatment is effective, because it decreases the afterload. However, BP lowering treatment has been reported to increase the incidence of renal dysfunction; therefore, paying attention to the degree of association with vascular failure, and multiple organs when determining the target BP are important to consider. The decision on the target BP and the optimal choice of cardioprotective/antihypertensive medications for HF should be based on the pathologic condition.

Published: June 2022

Many COVID-19 survivors worldwide suffer from persistent symptoms, impaired functional capacity and quality of life. Rehabilitation exercise interventions for the long-term physical consequences of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) are currently being reported. As a result, the clinical practice and research focus on interventions that support recovery from ongoing symptomatology, independently to hospitalization. To date, the outpatient rehabilitation programs offer various exercise modes and training intensities for people recovering from long-term symptomatology of COVID-19. This narrative review summarizes previous studies that used exercise training protocols at the outpatient rehabilitation setting, presents the effectiveness of training on the functional outcomes and provides practical issues of the application of exercise training which overcome possible respiratory and peripheral muscle limiting factors of exercise and functional capacity for patients with Long-COVID-19. To this end we make recommendations on how better to implement exercise training in future studies so as to maximize training effects. Due to lack of randomized trials, more research is needed in the field of the exercise training modalities that are more effective and in parallel more tolerable for patients with persistent post-COVID-19 symptoms. In this context, interval training mode with short exercise periods can prevent high lactate accumulation and allow more intense exercise stimuli to the deconditioned peripheral muscles with minimal cardiac strain and exercise-induced hyperventilation, thus improving exercise capacity in this patients’ population.

Published: June 2022

Health mis/disinformation can negatively impact health decisions and ultimately, health outcomes. Mis/disinformation related to COVID-19 vaccines has influenced vaccine hesitancy during a very critical time during the pandemic when globally, the vaccine was needed to attenuate the spread of the COVID-19 virus. This paper examines persuasive strategies used in Twitter posts, particular those with antivaccine sentiment. The authors developed a predictive model using variables based on the Elaboration Likelihood Model, Social Judgement Theory and the Extended Parallel Process Model to determine which persuasive tactics resulted in antivaccine, provaccine and neutral sentiment. The study also used machine learning to validate the persuasion variable algorithm to detect persuasion tactics in COVID-19 vaccine online discourse on Twitter. Understanding persuasive tactics used in antivaccine messaging can inform the development of a data-driven counter-response strategy.
