A new population screening program for BRCA mutations in Israel – Attitudes and barriers among Ashkenazi Jewish women
Authors: S Amar , S Lieberman , A Biderman , A Lahad , T Feinsilver
Published: May 2023

Israeli Jewish women of Ashkenazi ancestry have a high BRCA mutation carrier rate. Therefore, recently, Israel included free genetic testing among all Jewish women with Ashkenazi ancestry, 25 yrs. and older in its public health system. The aim of this study was to assess the intention of eligible women to be tested for BRCA mutations, and to find factors that may affect their decision.

We distributed an online survey to a panel of participants in a commercial research institute. The survey included socio-demographic characteristics, attitudes towards preventive actions, views related to benefits and limitations of performing the BRCA test, worry regarding cancer morbidity, knowledge about breast cancer morbidity and hereditary breast cancer genetics. The survey concluded with a question regarding the woman’s interest in undergoing the BRCA test.

The results showed that among the 506 respondents, 250 (49%) were interested in BRCA testing, 42 (8%) objected and 214 (43%) were undecided. In comparing the undecided to the other groups, we found that most presented a positive attitude towards screening tests and preventive medicine, they showed acceptable knowledge about the proposed test, and yet were interested in learning and further expanding the knowledge and the consequences of doing the test. Most respondents of all groups expressed concern of breast cancer morbidity and were reluctant to perform the test for reasons of reducing uncertainty, implications for children and implications for their own health.

Within all groups, many women expressed their desire to consult with a medical professional about the test. We conclude that aiming to improve the performance of BRCA genetic testing, women need a thorough explanation about its implications. The main way to inform them would be by medical professionals, especially in primary care. This implies that front line nurses and physicians need to become more knowledgeable and committed to this subject.

Authors: Igarashi Masaki , Yamauchi Toshimasa
Published: May 2023

Numerous animal studies have shown that the decrease in the tissue Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD+) levels during aging are closely related to age-related physiological decline and that the administration of NAD+ precursors restore NAD+ levels and promotes health and prolongs lifespan. Therefore, in order to demonstrate whether NAD+ supplementation by NAD+ precursors mitigate age-related physiological dysfunction including muscle weakness in older men. We conducted a placebo-controlled, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group study in which Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) was administered to healthy older men for 12 weeks. In this commentary, we overview reported human NAD+-related clinical trials including our NMN study.

Published: May 2023

Background: The use of left placket single muscle flap covered anastomosis in proximal gastrectomy has not been reported in the literature. The occurrence of gastroesophageal reflux after proximal gastrectomy is closely related to the mode of digestive tract reconstruction. The currently available digestive tract reconstruction approach affects patient’s postoperative quality of life due to the disadvantages of gastroesophageal reflux and anastomotic stenosis. Therefore, the use of left open flap single muscle flap covered anastomosis in proximal gastrectomy may improve the postoperative quality of life of patients. We present a case report and literature review to illustrate the therapeutic results of left-opening single muscle flap covered anastomosis in proximal gastrectomy.

Case presentation: Two male patients with average age of 70.5 years and average BMI of 20.5 underwent laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy with an intraoperative left open flap single muscle flap covered overlap anastomosis. The average duration of surgery was 277.5 min, with average intraoperative bleeding of 100 ml, and no anastomotic stenosis was detected by contrast examination on the sixth postoperative day. The postoperative exhaust time was 3 days in both cases, liquid diet was given for 7 days and discharged from the hospital on the 8th day after operation. On an average 19 lymph nodes were dissected. The postoperative pathological stages were T3N2M0 and T1bN0M0. No gastroesophageal reflux or anastomotic fistula was detected in the recent follow-up.

Conclusion: The application of the left flap covering the overlap anastomosis in laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy has achieved good results. Multi center large sample clinical studies are needed to further determine its role in gastroesophageal reflux.
Solving fractional variable-order differential equations of the non-singular derivative using Jacobi operational matrix
Authors: Basim M. , N. Senu  , A. Ahmadian  , Ibrahim Z. B. , Salahshour S.
Published: May 2023

This research derives the shifted Jacobi operational matrix (JOM) with respect to fractional derivatives, implemented with the spectral tau method for the numerical solution of the Atangana-Baleanu Caputo (ABC) derivative. The major aspect of this method is that it considerably simplifies problems by reducing them to ones that can be solved by solving a set of algebraic equations. The main advantage of this method is its high robustness and accuracy gained by a small number of Jacobi functions. The suggested approaches are applied in solving non-linear and linear ABC problems according to initial conditions, and the efficiency and applicability of the proposed method are proved by several test examples. A lot of focus is placed on contrasting the numerical outcomes discovered by the new algorithm together with those discovered by previously well-known methods.

Published: May 2023

The inhibitive performance of the methanol extract of an eco-friendly green inhibitor Kalanchoe crenata (KC) leaves on the corrosion of mild steel in 5.0 M H2SO4 solution with inhibitor concentrations of 1 g/L, 2 g/L, 3 g/L, 4 g/L and 5 g/L, at the temperatures of 333 K and 353 K was studied using gravimetric (weight loss) and gasometric (hydrogen evolution) techniques to determine its inhibition efficiencies as well as to depict the mechanism of inhibition of the inhibitor. The gravimetric technique was done for 5 Hours. Results indicate that the leaf extract inhibited the corrosion process efficiently. The extract showed inhibition efficiency of 84.95% and 84.24% (333 K) for gravimetric and gasometric analysis respectively. The Inhibition efficiency was found to increase with an increase in the extract concentration and also increased with an increase in time but decreased with increase in temperature. Thermodynamic considerations revealed that the activation energy, Ea increased in the presence of the plant extract. The kinetic data confirmed the reaction process to be first order. Adsorption of the plant extract on mild steel surface is an exothermic process and spontaneous as deduced by negative Qads mean value (-10.39 kJ/mol) and negative ∆Gads values (-11.54 and -10.49 kJ/mol). The mechanism of adsorption proposed for the plant extract on the mild steel surface is physical adsorption. Experimental data obtained fits the Langmuir adsorption isotherm.
FLUORESCENT COPPER NANOCLUSTERS
Authors: Oyem H. H.
Published: May 2023

Clusters of coinage metals like silver and gold have been studied for their opto-physical properties and interesting applications. These nanoscale materials are usually synthesized from their salts by reduction usually in aqueous solution at ambient conditions. Copper nanoclusters were synthesized from copper (II) salts using sodium borohydride as reducing agent in aqueous solution. The resulting sample was observed to be luminescent with emission bands at 346 and 428 nm. Confocal microscopy images of the sample showed small, seemingly spherical “particles” that were visibly fluorescent and photostable. Mass spectrometry data revealed that the clusters had a molecular mass of m/z = 575.8 and a molecular formula of [Cu7B3O5.H2O]¯. These clusters can be applied in the areas of catalysis, optical electronic devices, chemical and biosensors in in vitro systems.
DEGRADATION OF TOTAL HYDROCARBON CONTENT OF OILFIELD PRODUCED WATER USING ACTIVATED COW BONE CARBON
Authors: Oyedoh E. A. , Adam-Urete A. L.
Published: May 2023

The adsorption capacity of activated cow bone carbon as adsorbent for the uptake of total hydrocarbon from oilfield produced water was investigated in this work. The physico-chemical properties of the produced water were determined and the activated carbon was characterized in terms of pH and surface characteristics. The effects of adsorption process variables on the adsorption capacity of the activated carbon were evaluated and optimized using response surface methodology. The adsorption process variables considered and their range of values are adsorbent dosage of 2.0 to 5.0 g, contact time of 30 to 60 mins and temperature of 35 to 60℃. The physico-chemical properties of the produced water before treatment revealed that the produced water was contaminated with high concentration of hydrocarbons and other contaminants. Elemental composition showed that the activated carbon contained predominantly CaO (52.61%) and P2O5 (43.05%). The BET surface area, pore volume and pore size of the activated carbon were found to be 321.79 m2.g-1, 0.1624 cm3.g-1 and 2.10 nm respectively which indicate activated carbon has a mesoporous structure. The maximum amount of total hydrocarbon content adsorbed was found to be 607.27 mg.g-1 which was achieved using activated carbon dosage of 2.00 g, contact time of 40.56 mins at a temperature of 35℃. The high and close R-squared values of the experimental and predicted values of the total hydrocarbon content indicate reasonable agreement and hence showed the effectiveness of response surface methodology in modeling the removal of total hydrocarbon content in produced water. The high amount of total hydrocarbon content adsorbed showed that activated cow bone carbon is effective and efficient as a low cost adsorbent alternative for the degradation of hydrocarbon in waste water streams.
