Published: September 2024

A endometriose torácica é uma condição rara caracterizada pela presença de tecido endometrial fora do útero, comumente afetando a pleura e o parênquima pulmonar. Este artigo apresenta um caso de pneumotórax espontâneo recidivante associado à endometriose torácica em uma paciente de 36 anos. A paciente apresentou dois episódios de pneumotórax, ambos coincidentes com o início do ciclo menstrual. Foi realizada uma abordagem cirúrgica por videotoracoscopia (VATS) durante o segundo episódio, que identificou implantes endometriais em pleura, confirmados por exame anatomopatológico. A literatura descreve a endometriose torácica como uma condição subdiagnosticada, com sintomas variados, incluindo pneumotórax catamenial, hemotórax, e nódulos pulmonares. O diagnóstico é desafiador e requer uma combinação de exames de imagem, análise de líquido pleural e biópsia tecidual, com VATS sendo o padrão ouro tanto para diagnóstico quanto para tratamento. O manejo inclui terapia hormonal e intervenção cirúrgica, visando reduzir a recorrência e as complicações. Este relato enfatiza a importância da suspeita clínica e do diagnóstico precoce, especialmente em mulheres em idade fértil com sintomas respiratórios cíclicos, para reduzir a morbidade associada à endometriose torácica.

The experiment was conducted during the rainy (kharif), winter (rabi) and summer seasons of 2022–23 at College of Agriculture, V C Farm, Mandya, Karnataka to study the influence of weather conditions on the occurrence of paddy yellow stem borer [Scirpophaga incertulas (Walker)]. Rice (Oryza sativa L.) variety Jaya was selected for the experiment. Results found that the 37th and 39th Standard Meteorological Weeks (SMW) exhibited the highest infestation of dead heart (14.22%) and white ears (8.91%), respectively. This was associated with a noteworthy positive correlation with maximum temperature and a significant negative correlation with minimum temperature. Similarly, in rabi 2022, the 50th and 3rd SMW recorded the peak infestation of the dead heart (8.92%) and white ears (7.64%), respectively. These instances were linked to a significant positive association with morning relative humidity and bright sunshine hours, along with a significant negative association with minimum temperature and afternoon relative humidity. During summer 2023, the highest incidence of dead heart (29.26%) and white ears (21.74%) occurred in the 16th and 20th SMW, respectively. This was accompanied by a significant positive correlation with minimum temperature, rainy days, rainfall, and afternoon relative humidity. The peak infestation of dead heart and white ears was observed between 30–50 days after transplanting (DAT) and 80–100 DAT, respectively. To effectively manage this pest, it is recommended to adopt early sowing and timely interventions before reaching the peak, employing appropriate management practices. Therefore, continuous monitoring of the pest, utilizing future prediction models, and staying attentive to evolving weather conditions are essential components of effective pest management strategies.

The cowpea crop has a high protein content and is a pulse crop, with greater consumption in countries of the African continent and Asia. It is cultivated in arid and semi-arid regions. It is a crop that is cultivated both rainfed and irrigated, with different technological levels in Brazil. The study with the economic viability of this crop in the Cerrado region is important to facilitate the management of rural producers. Thus, the objective of this study was to economically evaluate rainfed cowpea in the second crop in a cerrado region, in succession to soybean. The study was conducted in the field, on a farm located in the municipality of Rio Verde, southwest region of the state of Goiás, being conducted for three harvests (2015/2016, 2016/2017 and 2017/2018) with soybean alternation in the first harvest, all via no-tillage. The economic result in the three harvests proved to be viable only in the first harvest (2015/2016) and unfeasible in the others, due to low productivity, seasonality of market prices and high production cost. The low productivity and the commercialization price were low compared to the costs and efforts applied compared to the opportunity cost of other crops. The economic viability of cowpea is directly related to the price paid for the bean, which results in great price variability. As well as, the study of cowpea cultivars more adapted to the region.

Background: The negative effects caused by chemical fertilizers on the environment have led in recent years to the use of ecological alternatives for the management of crops of economic interest, with the application of bioproducts. Objective: To evaluate the application of the EcoMic biofertilizer and the bioproducts based on Trichoderma and QuitoMax in the production of organic potatoes. Methodology: The research was carried out at Finca “El Viñedos” Los Palacios, where 1 ha of the tuber variety SPECTRA, of Dutch origin, was planted in a Red Ferralitic leached Quartzite soil and three blocks were established, in one of which potatoes were produced conventionally (control), in another it was the combination of bioproducts (QuitoMax, Trichoderma and EcoMic) and in the remaining only QuitoMax and Trichoderma was applied. For the treated blocks, applications of QuitoMax (4) and Trichoderma (8) were made after sprouting. Results: The number of tubers per plant increased by 47 and 50% in those biologically treated (QuitoMax, Trichoderma and EcoMic) and (QuitoMax and Trichoderma), respectively. A similar behavior was obtained with the block based on QuitoMax, Trichoderma and EcoMic in the size of the tubers (caliber) with 63% while the one treated with QuitoMax and Trichoderma obtained 14%; in agricultural yield it was 31 and 21%, with QuitoMax, Trichoderma and EcoMic standing out. Implications: The production of organic potatoes is possible with the application of bioproducts. Conclusions: With the combined application of the EcoMic biofertilizer and other bioproducts, it was possible to produce 19 t of organic potatoes on the “El Viñedo” Los Palacios farm.

Widoczny w ostatnim czasie rozwój technologii spowodował, że w obszarze ochrony zdrowia zaczęto na szeroką skalę wykorzystywać narzędzia informatyczne dające możliwość przetwarzania danych medycznych oraz komunikowania się na odległość. To z kolei ujawniło zagrożenia dla gwarancji zachowania tajemnicy medycznej.
Głównym celem pracy była próbą wskazania współczesnych zagrożeń dla dochowania tajemnicy medycznej wynikających z zastosowania w medycynie nowych technologii. W pierwszej kolejności należy postulować wprowadzenie definicji zawodu medycznego oraz sformułowania katalogu zawodów medycznych, co pozwoli na wyeliminowanie wątpliwości kto jest zobowiązany do dochowania poufności danych objętych tajemnicą medyczną. Nadto należy dookreślić zasady zachowania poufności przez osoby mające dostęp do danych medycznych pacjenta, a nie wykonujących czynności medycznych. Konieczne jest też zapewnienie szerszej ochrony danych o stanie zdrowia pozyskiwanych w ramach używanych aplikacji mobilnych oraz podniesienie świadomości pracowników placówek medycznych o skali zagrożenia cyberatakami.
Retrospective Comparison of Polymerase Chain Reaction and Culture-Based Identification for Diagnosis of Microsporum canis and Trichophyton Spp. in Shelter Cats and Dogs
Authors: Cheung Wesley , Ellis Alexandre , Idle Amanda , Protopopova Alexandra , Gordon Emilia
Published: September 2024

Introduction: Canine and feline dermatophytosis is challenging to manage in shelter settings because of its transmissibility, potential for zoonosis and labour-intensive treatment. An efficient and accurate initial diagnostic plan is essential to confirm infection, prevent outbreaks and ensure public safety. While quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has gained attention for its rapid turnaround time, studies have shown variable sensitivity. This study aimed to assess the performance of PCR in detecting Microsporum canis and Trichophyton spp. in shelter cats and dogs when compared to culture-based identification.
Methods: Between 1 June 2015 and 10 January 2023, 125,939 cats and dogs entered 34 sheltering locations in coastal Western Canada. Of these, 246 animals (48 dogs, 198 cats) had both culture and PCR results, and sufficient records for analysis. Toothbrush samples were collected for dermatophyte test medium (DTM)/enhanced sporulation agar (ESA) bi-plates at a central shelter location and submitted for PCR at a referral laboratory before treatment was initiated. The diagnostic accuracy of PCR was evaluated using the reference standard of a 14-day culture result combined with P-scoring, a semi-quantitative method to assess DTM culture colonies.
Results: Culture readings identified 72/246 (29.27%) lesional animals as positive (63 cats [31.81%] and 9 dogs [18.75%]). PCR demonstrated an overall sensitivity of 86.1% and specificity of 94.8% for both animal species combined. PCR for M. canis showed a sensitivity of 86.4% and a specificity of 97.8%, while PCR for Trichophyton spp. showed a sensitivity of 84.6% and specificity of 97.9%. DTM/ESA culture was highly efficient, with positive results available within 7 days for most cases (59/63 cats [93.6%] and 9/9 dogs [100%]).
Conclusion: The variability in dermatophyte PCR sensitivity across recent studies highlights the risks of reliance on PCR as a sole diagnostic tool for suspect animals, especially when considering the demonstrated efficacy of in-house culture.

Online Trade of Live Freshwater Turtles and Tortoises in the Philippines
Authors: Sy Emerson , Lorenzo II Antonio
Published: September 2024

Freshwater turtles and tortoises are highly threatened by illegal and unsustainable wildlife trade. The trade has been thriving online, particularly on social media platforms, in recent decades. We conducted a two-year online survey on 20 Facebook groups in 2019–2020 and reviewed CITES trade data from 1990–2019 (30 yr) to elucidate chelonian trade dynamics in the Philippines. A total of 5,801 individuals representing 77 taxa were documented for sale on Facebook in 2019–2020. The 10 most commonly traded species represented 79% of the total quantity, and Centrochelys sulcata (n = 1,211) was the most offered for sale. The analysis of 307 CITES trade records showed that the Philippines imported between 3,365 (importer-reported) and 4,279 (exporter-reported) live chelonians of 39 species from 21 countries and territories during the 30-yr period. There were 23 CITES Appendix-listed species, including six species listed on Appendix I, documented for sale on Facebook but without import records from the CITES Trade Database such as Astrochelys radiata (n = 47), Astrochelys yniphora (n = 2), Geochelone platynota (n = 30), Geoclemys hamiltonii (n = 30), Pangshura tecta (n = 42), and Pyxis arachnoides (n = 3). Whereas the origins of these species were uncertain (e.g. pre-CITES convention; smuggled), some individuals may be poached from the wild, recently smuggled, and illegally offered in the country. Our results show that the wildlife trade continues to thrive on Facebook. Greater cooperation among conservation groups, wildlife authorities, and social media platforms and appropriate actions are urgently needed to curtail illegal online wildlife trade proliferation.

Published: September 2024

Cilostazol possesses pharmacological restrictions, such as its absorption being limited by its dissolution rate, and formulation studies must be employed accordingly to generate an optimized formulation. A drug-excipient compatibility analysis is conducted to determine any interactions that may affect the formulation in order to guarantee the stability, bioavailability, and manufacturability of solid dosage forms. To identify any incompatibilities, cilostazol alone and in combination with the individual excipients such as microcrystalline cellulose, crospovidone, magnesium stearate, isopropyl alcohol, sodium lauryl sulfate, polyvinylpyrrolidone K30, and corn starch were subjected to Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) equipped with an attenuated total reflectance method and heat-flow differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) with a temperature ranging from 30–400 °C at 10 °C/min ramp rate. The FTIR analysis of cilostazol alone and combined with excipients revealed no evidence of chemical or physical instability. Minor changes in the appearance of the absorbance bands in the FTIR comparison can be seen primarily due to the chemical characterization of the excipients, but the characteristic peaks of cilostazol were still present. As for DSC compatibility analysis, the % difference in cilostazol's principal peak temperature alone and with excipients showed no significant change. This implies that no incompatibilities exist between cilostazol and the excipients.
Drying Characteristics of Pandan (Pandanus simplex Merr.) Leaves Using the DOST-FPRDI Furnace-type Dryer
Authors: Jimenez Jr. Juanito
Published: September 2024

This study investigated the drying characteristics of pandan (Pandanus simplex Merr.) leaves using the DOST-FPRDI's furnace-type dryer to provide an efficient drying solution. Two trial runs were conducted with different kiln drying settings. During the first trial run, narrow (6, 8, and 14 mm) pandan leaf strips with initial moisture content (MC) values ranging from 105–145% achieved an MC below 20% within 1 h. Conversely, wider leaf strips (17 and 21 mm) required a longer drying duration of approximately 4 h to reach the desired MC level. In the second trial run, with higher temperature setting, again the narrow leaf strips with initial MC ranging from 123 to 136% attained an MC below 20% within 1 h, whereas the wider ones took just 2 h to dry below 20%. Two verification runs were conducted to validate the effectiveness of the second trial run. Leaf strips of various sizes demonstrated improved drying times, with the desired MC achieved within half an hour to 1.5 h. The absorption rate of pandan leaf samples was also examined, revealing their ability to absorb moisture from the air. Within a day, the samples absorbed more than 5% moisture, highlighting the importance of not drying the leaves below the prevailing equilibrium MC of the environment. This research provides valuable insights into the drying process of pandan leaves by reducing drying time and improving the overall quality of dried leaves.

Poor upper limb movement control and coordination are major problems in patients with stroke. A novel combination of muscle and multi-joint movement increases mobility, allows for the degree of freedom in shoulder and elbow joint, and facilitate patients to learn and control their movement. The assisted movement with a symmetrical counterweight balance system and real-time feedback is proposed to enhance and facilitate the movement of paresis muscles. The power assist uses purely mechanical and assisted movement from the non-paretic arm. The feedback system receives data from a three-axis load cell sensor on both sides of the handlebar during movement and feedback force from both sides in real time. The display of real-time feedback is provided and enables subjects to adjust and correct their movement. Two combined movements were performed in five healthy subjects for testing the device system and correlation of force from the load cell and muscle activity from surface electromyography (sEMG). The results showed that the new upper limb rehabilitation machine with feedback and a symmetrical counterweight balance system can achieve mass balance in all positions. The device is robust, safe, and easy for the subject to move a combined movement of the shoulder joint and elbow joint. The force from the load cell sensor occurs simultaneously with muscle activation during movement. This system helps the patient to learn and control their force from the paretic limb. The high repetitions from practice with an accuracy of muscle force and movement control will enhance motor learning and facilitate motor recovery during the rehabilitation period.
Classical Soundness in Robustness Diagram with Loop and Time Controls
Authors: Malinao Jasmine , Juayong Richelle Ann
Published: September 2024

This study introduces and formalizes the concept of classical soundness for robustness diagrams and loop controls. This concept has not been established and formalized in previous literature for this type of workflow model. Although this concept may vary in syntax across different types of workflows (e.g. workflow nets, business process modeling and notation, Petri nets), this study adopts the well-known overarching semantic of classical soundness, which requires that every activity or work done by a system that is determinable from its workflow model observes proper termination and liveness. In the meantime, we discount reset-bound subsystems in our analysis of the classical soundness of our target model. We define classical soundness, along with the formalism and design strategies, to achieve proper termination and liveness on this model in both structural and behavioral aspects of the activities therein. Finally, we establish and prove the time and space complexity of proving classical soundness under these aspects for this model.

Global Cancer burden is high and it is projected to rise by 47% by 2040 from an
estimated incidence of 19.3 Million according to the 2020 global cancer estimates. There
has been notable improvement in cancer care in Kenya but malnutrition in cancer patients
remain highly under-recognised and the malnutrition screening tools remain
under-utilised especially in Nyeri county. Analytical cross-sectional study design was
used in this study and a Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool (MUST) was used to screen
the patients for malnutrition risk. All cancer patients who had attained an age of 18
years, at any cancer stage were included. SPSS was used to analyse data. A response rate
of 93% was attained and sixty one percent of these were female while 39% were male.
Sixty one percent had acquired primary school education and half of the respondents
survive on a monthly income of between 0-10,000. Breast cancer was the most common
cancer type in the population (39%), followed by esophageal and throat cancer at 14.5%
and gastric cancer at 14%. Prostate cancer was the most prevalent among the male
respondents at 11%. Using the MUST, more than half (51.7%) of the respondents were at a
high risk of developing malnutrition, followed by low risk (32.6%) with only 15.7%
respondents being at a medium risk of malnutrition. Using the BMI, half of the
respondents, (50%) had a normal nutrition status and only 19.8% respondents were
underweight. There is a significant difference between classifying nutrition status of
cancer patients using BMI and Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool (P<0.05).
Malnutrition Universal Screening tool is easy to use and has the ability to identify the
risk of malnutrition among cancer patients and can be adopted in cancer care to improve
cancer prognosis and reduce malnutrition rates among cancer patients. Keywords: Cancer,
Malnutrition, Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool, Body Mass Index
The Effect of Transformational Leadership Style and Job Satisfaction on Employee Performance Mediated by Intrinsic Motivation (Study on Employees of PT Bisma Aero Sejahtera)
Authors: Franciscus Mamahit Frankie , Haposan Pangaribuan Christian
Published: September 2024

The application of transformational leadership style in an organisation is one of the strategies to improve employee performance. Leaders with transformational leadership style are able to bring the organisation to a better direction by inspiring and supporting the development of employee potential to achieve the vision. One of the other important factors that can affect employee performance is job satisfaction. Job satisfaction is the general attitude of an individual towards their work. However, the relationship between transformational leadership, job satisfaction, and employee performance sometimes looks ambiguous and inconsistent, so mediating variables are needed to strengthen and clarify the relationship between transformational leadership style, job satisfaction, and employee performance. Intrinsic motivation in this case can act as a mediator that connects between transformational leadership style, job satisfaction and employee performance. The purpose of this research is to see and analyse the influence between one variable to another that affects the performance of employees. The variables to be examined in this study are transformational leadership, job satisfaction, employee performance and intrinsic motivation as a mediating variable. The research method used in this research is quantitative. This study uses a questionnaire approach as a data collection tool that is distributed via an online questionnaire to employees of PT Bisma Aero Sejahtera. The research limitations in this study are that the survey was only conducted on employees of PT Bisma Aero Sejahtera located at the Garuda Maintenance Facility (GMF) Cengkareng, Soekarno-Hatta airport area and the period of this survey was only conducted within a span of one month.
