Prevalence and serovars of Salmonella enterica isolated from ileocolic lymph nodes of market pigs reared in selected Midwest US swine herds
Authors: Bahnson Peter , Damman DAniel , Isaacson Richard , Miller Gay , Weigel Ronald , Troutt Fred
Published: August 2024

Objectives: To describe the prevalence and serovars of Salmonella enterica in ileocolic lymph nodes of slaughtered swine in a sample of Midwest US herds and to assess as methods of study pooling and freezing of lymph-node samples prior to bacterial culture. Materials and methods: Ileocolic lymph nodes from 30 pigs from each of 146 herds were sampled at slaughter. Tissue from five pigs was pooled for one bacterial culture. Retained frozen tissues from the same pigs were cultured individually (n = 82 herds) from a subset of those with Salmonella-positive pools (n = 100 herds). A mathematical relationship was described to predict approximate individual prevalence based on number of positive pools. Isolates were serotyped. To test for effects of freezing on test sensitivity, lymph nodes from 100 pigs were cultured both fresh and after freezing. Results: Salmonellae were detected in 100 of 146 herds (68.5%). The mean number of positive pools per herd was 1.75, and the mean within-herd, individual-pig prevalence was 6.98% (95% CI, 4.88% – 9.07%). Freezing of samples did not result in decreased detected prevalence. Individual prevalence could be approximately predicted by pool results, although with low precision. Implications: Salmonellae were found in two-thirds of the herds studied. Culture of pooled samples with subsequent culture of retained frozen tissues from positive pools may be an effective way to test a larger number of herds on a given budget through laboratory-cost savings. However, pooling without culture of individuals from positive pools results in imprecise prevalence estimation.

Authors: Dee Scott , Deen John
Published: August 2024

Objective: To test a protocol, using conditions found on commercial swine production units, for sanitation of 1:150 scale models of commercial transport vehicles contaminated with porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV). Methods: Model trailers were experimentally contaminated with PRRSV MN 30-100 and either pressure-washed with cold water alone (Treatment 1) or washed and then disinfected with modified potassium monopersulfate (Treatment 2), quaternary ammonium chloride (Treatment 3), or a phenolic product (Treatment 4), each applied using a hydrofoamer. In Phase One, the presence of PRRSV RNA was evaluated by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing of swabs collected from the trailers’ interiors immediately after washing and 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes post treatment. In Phase Two, the presence of viable PRRSV was evaluated by swine bioassay (injection of supernatants from PCR-positive swabs) and housing pairs of sentinel pigs in treated trailers for 2 hours, beginning 90 minutes post treatment. Results: Swabs were PCR-positive 120 minutes post treatment in 18 of 20 trailers receiving Treatment 1, none of 20 trailers receiving Treatments 2 and 3, and two of 20 trailers (suspect reactions) receiving Treatment 4. Viable virus was detected both by swine bioassay and sentinel pig exposure protocols in trailers receiving Treatment 1, and by swine bioassay alone in trailers receiving Treatment 4. Implications: High-pressure washing of transport trailers, followed by 90 to 120 minutes exposure to either modified potassium monopersulfate or quaternary ammonium chloride disinfectants applied with a hydrofoamer is likely to eliminate residual infectious PRRSV.
Sampling of adult boars during early infection with porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus for testing by polymerase chain reaction using a new blood collection technique (blood-swab method)
Authors: Reicks Darwin , Munoz-Zanzi Claudia , Rossow Kurt
Published: August 2024

Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness of a skin puncture technique (blood-swab method) to collect blood for detection of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in experimentally infected boars, and to examine the effect of sampling method (blood swab, serum, semen, or mouth swab) and rectal temperature on the ability to detect PRRSV in boars during the first 6 days after experimental infection. Materials and methods: Twenty-one mature boars were inoculated with PRRSV variant MNB04. Serum samples, blood swabs, mouth swabs, and semen samples were collected from two groups of 10 boars on a rotating basis, one group every 24 hours for 6 days. Rectal temperatures were recorded for all boars every 24 hours. Using the blood-swab method, a vein (usually the auricular vein) was punctured with a needle and blood was collected with a polyester swab. The swab was then put into a tube containing 1 mL of saline solution, which was tested for PRRSV virus by PCR. Results: Sixty of 61 samples were PCR-positive using the blood-swab method compared with 61 of 61 PCR-positive using traditional serum collection methods. Testing of both serum and blood swabs detected PRRS-positive boars earlier and with higher frequency than testing semen samples (27 of 60 positive) or mouth-swab samples (19 of 61 positive). Implications: The blood-swab method is a reliable alternative to traditional venipuncture during the first 6 days after infection with PRRSV, and PCR-testing blood swabs is more sensitive than testing semen or mouth swabs.

Qu’il s’agisse des dépenses en surveillance de la santé des populations, en prévention des maladies ou en promotion de la santé, toutes ont baissé de façon importante comparativement à ce qu’elles auraient été en l’absence de la pandémie de COVID-19. Ce sont là les conclusions d’une étude CIRANO d’envergure (Ammi et al., 2024) qui s’appuie sur de riches données de santé populationnelle, démographiques, socioéconomiques et épidémiologiques et des méthodes économétriques rigoureuses. Bien que nécessaires, les efforts en monitorage des urgences et risques sanitaires et en protection de la santé se sont faits au détriment d’autres actions de santé publique. Ceci pourrait avoir entraîné des effets délétères sur la santé des populations et il est primordial d’en mesurer l’ampleur.

Authors: Gamal Ahmad , Gayatri Kartika Mira , Baramadya
Published: August 2024

The capital market is a vehicle that can mobilise long-term funds from the public to be channelled into productive sectors. The purpose of the capital market in Indonesia is not only to mobilise funds from the public so that they can be channelled into productive sectors, but also to realise income distribution through ownership of company shares. This goal can be achieved gradually with the increasing number and types of securities traded in line with the increasing number of institutions that support the implementation of the capital market.
This study aims to determine the effect of earning per share and price earning ratio (PER) on stock returns in Wood and Lumber industry companies that go public on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the period 2005-2007. The analysis method used in this research is multiple linear regression with SPSS version 12.0.
The results of this study can be concluded that: (1) Earning per share has a positive effect on stock returns, because the significance value is smaller than 0.05 and one of the considerations of investors besides risk is the return they will get in the form of a share of net income distributed to shareholders, (2) Price earning ratio has no effect on stock returns, because the significance value is greater than 0.05.

Understanding Douglas McGregor's Theory X and Theory Y in Human Resource Management
Authors: RK C. Lizy
Published: August 2024

This paper explores the application of Douglas McGregor's Theory X and Theory Y in Human Resource Management (HRM), offering a comprehensive analysis of their implications for modern HR practices. Theory X posits that employees inherently dislike work, lack ambition, and need strict supervision and control to meet organizational objectives. It suggests that a managerial approach characterized by authoritative leadership and a rigid hierarchical structure is necessary to ensure productivity. Conversely, Theory Y presents a more optimistic view of employees, proposing that they are naturally motivated, seek responsibility, and can selfdirect. Theory Y advocates for participative management styles, emphasizing trust, empowerment, and opportunities for personal growth. Through an in-depth examination, this research evaluates how these theories influence various HR functions, including motivation strategies, leadership styles, performance management systems, and the overall organizational culture. It discusses the traditional and contemporary applications of these theories in real-world settings, providing case studies of organizations that predominantly use either Theory X or Theory Y principles. The analysis demonstrates that while Theory X can lead to efficient operations through stringent controls, it may also result in low employee morale and high turnover. On the other hand, Theory Y fosters a more innovative and engaging work environment, though it may present challenges in terms of maintaining consistent performance standards. The paper concludes by emphasizing the importance of integrating both theories in HR practices to address diverse employee needs and situational demands. It suggests that a balanced approach, tailored to specific organizational contexts and individual employee profiles, can optimize both productivity and employee satisfaction. This holistic view offers valuable insights for HR professionals aiming to develop flexible and effective management strategies that leverage the strengths of both Theory X and Theory Y.

Telehealth Challenges in Nursing: A Narrative Review
Authors:   Nursing Ph.D Candidate, Dorot Geriatric Medical Center Affilated to the Technion Faculty Of Medicine, Haifa, Israel, Sharkiya Samer Hatem
Published: August 2024

Background: Telehealth, employing technology such as Internet-based video, live chat, or telephone, has become essential for enhancing healthcare accessibility and cost-effectiveness. Despite its benefits, telehealth adoption faces challenges, particularly among nurses. This narrative review investigates the specific challenges nurses encounter with telehealth, focusing on a lack of training and resistance to change. Methods: The review analyzed literature from Web of Science, PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar. A narrative review methodology was used, whereby the retrieved studies were thematically synthesized to address the review’s aim. Results: The search yielded eight primary studies. Findings of the narrative synthesis reveal that inadequate training is a significant barrier, with nurses often lacking the time and resources to engage in telehealth training. Additionally, resistance to change, influenced by workflow interruptions and discomfort with being monitored, further hampers adoption. Recommendations: Recommendations include addressing nursing understaffing, integrating telehealth education into nursing curricula, and developing tailored training programs. Future research should focus on nurses' unique perspectives and test interventions to address identified challenges. Understanding and addressing these barriers can enhance telehealth integration in nursing, ultimately improving healthcare delivery.

Authors: Sarkar Sukanta , Keat Thijien
Published: August 2024

The study makes an attempt to assess the poverty eradication of Jhumias through the bamboo cultivation in North Tripura district of Tripura. The present study is an empirical study based on both primary and secondary data. Primary data was collected with the help of a well-structured questionnaire from 120 bamboo cultivator households randomly (who previously involved in shifting cultivation) selected from the three subdivisions of the North Tripura district. The result indicates that poverty among the shifting cultivators are reduced after rehabilitation through the bamboo cultivation. The headcount index, poverty gap index, human poverty index and multidimensional poverty index showed that during shifting cultivation respectively 100 per cent, 87 per cent, 88.2 per cent and 90 per cent jhumias were fallen under the poverty line in North Tripura district. It means intensity of poverty were very high during the shifting cultivation period. Headcount index, poverty gap index, human poverty index and multidimensional poverty index showed that after rehabilitation of jhumias through the bamboo cultivation respectively zero per cent, zero per cent, 3.29 per cent and 0.3 per cent are under the poverty line. It means poverty among the jhumias are effectively reduced after bamboo cultivation. Thus the paper suggests that bamboo cultivation will be a useful strategy for rehabilitation of jhumias and poverty eradication.

Published: August 2024

Introdução: Afetando cerca de 1% dos nascidos vivos, a cardiopatia congênita se destaca como uma das malformações congênitas mais prevalentes. Desde o momento do nascimento, os defeitos cardíacos congênitos se manifestam como um conjunto de anormalidades estruturais no coração. Objetivo: compreender através da literatura como a cardiopatia congênita impacta na saúde das crianças. Metodologia:  Para realizar uma avaliação abrangente da literatura disponível, foi realizada uma revisão sistemática nas bases de dados BVS, LILACS e SciELO. O foco da revisão foram autores que contribuíram para o campo das ciências da saúde, especificamente em relação à Cardiopatias congênitas, Pediatria e Cardiologia. Para garantir a inclusão de pesquisas recentes, a revisão concentrou-se em estudos publicados entre 2020 e 2024. Estudos repetitivos, de escopo limitado, incompletos ou apresentados como resumos foram excluídos da análise. Resultados e discussão: O diagnóstico pré-natal da doença pode ser realizado por meio de ultrassonografia fetal, enquanto o diagnóstico após o nascimento é normalmente determinado por meio de exames físicos, ecocardiogramas e vários exames de imagem. Ademais, a gravidade destas condições pode variar desde pequenos defeitos que podem não necessitar de ação imediata até anomalias graves que exigem atenção médica urgente. Nas enfermarias pediátricas, as internações hospitalares por cardiopatias congênitas são frequentemente motivadas pela necessidade de diagnóstico, monitoramento e intervenção médica ou cirúrgica. Conclusão: Em suma, o tratamento de pacientes pediátricos com anomalias cardíacas congênitas em ambientes hospitalares necessita de uma estratégia abrangente e colaborativa para garantir o atendimento ideal.

Authors: Carmo Regina Célia Gomes da Silva , Braz Vivian da Silva
Published: August 2024

A educação rural no Brasil tem uma história marcada por lutas e movimentos sociais que visaram políticas públicas inclusivas para os povos do campo. No Estado de Goiás, as EFAs surgiram a partir de trocas de experiências com movimentos do Espírito Santo e o apoio de padres italianos. Estas escolas oferecem uma educação que atende às necessidades dos agricultores, promovendo a permanência dos jovens no campo e sua formação integral. A EFAGO e a EFAORI são exemplos de instituições que adotaram essa pedagogia, contribuindo para a qualificação técnica e o desenvolvimento sustentável. Dados do Censo Agropecuário de 2017 mostram a relevância dessas escolas na formação de jovens produtores. A metodologia da alternância, que alterna períodos de estudo na escola e na família, promove uma educação contextualizada e integradora, conciliando saberes populares e científicos. A EFAU, mantida pela Associação de Pais e Alunos, iniciou suas atividades em 2004 e destaca-se pelo seu enfoque no desenvolvimento integral dos educandos. A expansão das EFAs no Brasil reflete a adaptação bem-sucedida de um modelo internacional, promovendo o desenvolvimento humano e profissional no meio rural.

Authors: Matiello Rodrigo Rodrigues , Schafaschek Lilian , Finger Anderson Carlos
Published: August 2024

Os objetivos deste trabalho foram estimar a dissimilaridade genética entre genótipos de trigo através da caracterização agronômica, da genotipagem molecular e do coeficiente de parentesco; e realizar análise de agrupamento por meio de métodos estatísticos multivariados. Foram avaliadas 43 linhagens de trigo desenvolvidas pelo programa de melhoramento da UEPG e a testemunha comercial Safira®. A dissimilaridade genética foi estimada a partir da Distância Quadrada Generalizada de Mahalanobis (D2) através de sete características agronômicas, do coeficiente de parentesco e do índice de Jaccard para os marcadores SSR e AFLP. Os genótipos foram agrupados pela dissimilaridade através dos métodos UPGMA e da análise de componentes principais (ACP). A ACP reduziu o conjunto das variáveis em três componentes explicando 67% da variância fenotípica total. Os coeficientes dos autovetores indicaram que o componente principal 1 (CP1) foi mais relacionado à qualidade dos grãos (peso de mil grãos e peso do hectolitro) e ao ciclo vegetativo. O CP2 mais influenciado pelo rendimento de grãos (48,4%) e o CP3 associado negativamente com a estatura de plantas (72,08%). A análise CP possibilitou a identificação de diferentes grupos de genótipos a partir da caracterização agronômica. Independente da metodologia utilizada foi possível identificar considerável diversidade genética entre os genótipos de trigo. Os dendrogramas (molecular e caracterização agronômica) demonstraram a formação de oito grupos, enquanto pelo coeficiente de parentesco apenas cinco. As metodologias de análise foram eficientes em estimar a dissimilaridade genética entre os genótipos e possibilitaram destacar as linhagens de trigo com melhor desempenho agronômico.

Climate disasters and the difficult human/nature relationship
Authors: Coelho Ilsa Maria Valois , Cartaxo Elizabeth Ferreira , Marques Raquel
Published: August 2024

Environmental disasters are concrete examples of the difficult coexistence between man and nature and expose the fragility of ecosystems and the urgent need to rethink the development model of contemporary society. With a socio-political approach, the text analyses the relationship between man and nature and the environmental tragedies caused by global warming, denouncing the development process of industrialised societies and questioning the environment destroyed by the diversity of human actions. It discusses extreme weather events that have resulted in major environmental disasters, both in Brazil and in other countries, and provides quantitative data on the victims of these disasters. It reveals the unequal distribution of income and space that exposes the most vulnerable populations to the rigours of climate change and argues that man's predatory relationship with nature is the driving force behind environmental degradation and is based on the unethical interests of the market. He concludes on the importance of urban planning, the projection of more humane spaces and obedience to environmental protection laws.

Authors: SUBRAHMANIYAN K , RAJAVEL M , VEERAMANI P , PARTHIPAN T
Published: August 2024

The experiment was conducted during 2019–23 at Tamil Nadu Rice Research Institute (Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore), Aduthurai, Tamil Nadu to analyse the effect of conservation tillage methods on bulk density, soil penetration resistance and soil infiltration rate of clay soil and rice yield in rice-based cropping system. Experiment consisted of three tillage practices, viz. conventional tillage/puddling (CT); zero tillage (ZT); and minimal tillage/dry ploughing (MT) and two rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivars (ADT 43 and CORH 3), replicated four times. The result of the study revealed that the bulk density was significantly lower with zero tillage due to presence of crop residues and addition of organic matter. The mean infiltration rate under zero tillage was 0.16 cm/h as compared to puddling (0.14 cm/h) and dry ploughing (0.20 cm/h). The study further showed that the mean soil percolation rate was significantly altered by the tillage methods and soil percolation rate was 0.12 cm/h in zero tillage as compared to puddling (0.10 cm/h) and dry ploughing (0.16 cm/h). In contrary to the other physical properties, the soil penetration resistance was in the order of dry ploughing>zero tillage>puddling. The mean soil penetration resistance under zero tillage was reduced from 690–500 Kpa, 740–600 Kpa and 760–620 Kpa respectively at 0–5, 5–10 and 10–15 cm depth as compared to puddling. The results further indicated that the yield parameters and rice did not differ among the different tillage practices.

Published: August 2024

The experiment was conducted during rainy (kharif) season of 2021 and winter (rabi) season of 2022 at Annamalai University, Annamalai Nagar, Chidambaram, Tamil Nadu to identify suitable seed priming technique, soaking duration and priming agents for halo, osmo, and bio-priming in proso millet (Panicum miliaceum L.). To increase crop yield and sustainability in present-day agriculture, seed priming continues to be essential by utilizing scientific knowledge and technical breakthroughs. The experiment was laid out in factorial completely randomized design (FCRD) with three replications. The fresh seeds of proso millet cv. CO4 were imposed for halo, osmo, and bio priming treatments, viz. Agent for halo-priming: Control, hydropriming, KH2PO4 (1 and 2%), ZnSO4 (1 and 2%), and CaCl2 (1 and 2%); Agent for osmo-priming: Control, hydropriming, NaCl (1 and 2%), Mannitol (1 and 2%), and PEG (-10 and -15 Bar); Agent for bio-priming: Control, hydropriming, Azospirillum (15 and 20%), P. fluorescens (LF) (10 and 15%), Prosophis LE (5 and 10%), and soaked in equal volumes for 6 and 8 h. The results revealed that for halo priming, seeds soaked in 2% KH2PO4 for 8 h; for osmo priming seeds soaked in 2% mannitol for 8 h and for bio-priming seeds soaked in 15% P. fluorescens (LF) for 8 h outperformed other treatments.

Pineapple mealybugs are responsible for the emergence of pineapple wilt disease and the subsequent transmission of the pineapple disease virus. This study aimed to evaluate the alternate host plants as potential trap crops for pineapple mealybug. A total of nine host plant species, banana, pumpkin, roselle, hibiscus, ground fig, okra, java grass, goose grass and rhodes grass were selected for the study. Thirty adult females of pineapple mealybug were reared on a pumpkin for two months. Three replicates of a plot (area covered with black netting measuring 3 m × 3 m) were set up. Nine host plant species, approximately 2–3 feet in a 16 inch × 16 inch polybag were arranged in a circle around the pumpkin. The effectiveness of the host plant species was determined by calculating the infestation of each plant species for six months (with two-week observations). Our findings revealed that the pineapple mealybug prefers banana with the greatest mean and SD value (621.7±172.7), followed by pumpkin (237.0±45.6) and the lowest one is rhodes grass (2.00±26.5). ANOVA results show that there is a significant difference between host plant species (F-value of 26.87 and a P-value < 0.00). The observations suggest that banana has the potential to be utilized as trap crops for pineapple mealybug, and can be considered in IPM strategy to control pineapple mealybug.

The dearth of extension workers in this region impedes farmers' access to information, particularly regarding the advancement of innovations in paddy rice farming. Consequently, farmers are increasingly reliant on the internet, yet only a subset of them is able to utilize it to find information pertinent to farming activities. This study aims to ascertain the utilization of the internet and the capacity of wet-rice farmers in Langgoema Village, Uepai Subdistrict, and to examine the relationship between the two. The population under study consisted of all rice farmers in Langgomea Village, Uepai District, Konawe Regency, amounting to 88 individuals. These farmers were grouped into six farmer groups. The sample size was determined using the Slovin formula with an error rate of 10%, resulting in a sample size of 32 rice farmers. Data were collected using survey techniques, interviews, and documentation using questionnaires. This research employed a quantitative approach. The data were subjected to descriptive statistical analysis using the class interval formula and inferential statistical analysis using the Spearman rank correlation formula. The research findings indicate that the Internet utilization of wetland rice farmers is in the medium category. This can be observed in the Internet utilization indicators, which include information, relationships, and sustainability, all of which are in the moderate category. The capacity of rice paddy farmers is in the medium category. Internet utilization based on knowledge, attitudes, and skills are all in the medium category.  The utilization of the Internet by wetland rice farmers in Langgomea Village is found to have a very strong and positive relationship with their capacity. It is evident that high levels of Internet utilization contribute to increased capacity.

Search for potential Alzheimer Disease therapeutics: Identification of inhibitors of amyloid oligomerization with high affinity for the Zinc binding site

Published: August 2024

The progression of Aβ peptide aggregation in the brain has been suggested to play an important role in the pathogenesis and development of Alzheimer’s disease. The present study is intended to provide insight into the interactions between the zinc binding site of beta-amyloids and the zinc ion itself. It has been amply demonstrated that the absence of zinc bonded to the beta-amyloid may slow down the progression of the Alzheimer disease, so the goal is to provide an analysis of available drugs that can be repurposed, while waiting for the development of novel therapeutics. To this end, we address the issues of how and with what strength the existing compounds bind with beta-amyloid, potentially replacing or blocking zinc and preventing it from attaching to the amyloid itself. The analysis was performed using MOE software which, starting from a filtered database, made it possible to identify the drugs that were most likely to bind to the zinc binding site on beta-amyloid.
