Published: December 2021

The production of lactose-free yoghurts as a dietary product for people with milk sugar intolerance requires its extraction, which can affect the sensory and physicochemical properties of the finished product, thus, their evaluation to improve the technology is relevant. The purpose of the work was to explore yoghurts produced by conventional and lactose-free technologies. The object of the study was organic drinking yoghurt with “blueberry” filler (with probiotic) 2.5% and lactose-free organic yoghurt (with probiotic) 2.5%. The experimental samples were determined by a group of tasters organoleptic indicators, and titrated acidity and active acidity, conditional viscosity and structural and mechanical parameters of the product. According to the results of the research, organic drinking yoghurt with blueberry filler tasted sour-milk, without foreign flavours and odours, moderately sweet, with a pronounced taste of “blueberry” filler, consistency – homogeneous, tender, dense, without gas generation, with fresh blueberry particles distributed throughout the yoghurt, colour – with a shading characteristic of blueberries. Organic lactose-free yoghurt had a sour taste, fermented milk, without foreign flavours and odours, and colour – white. According to the results of physicochemical studies of the experimental samples of organic drinking yoghurt with “blueberry” filling and lactose-free organic yoghurt, it was established that the titrated acidity was 80 and 85o T, pH was 4.7 and 4.5, respectively. The mass fraction of carbohydrates in drinking yoghurt with the “blueberry” filling was 9.8 g/100g compared to 4.4 g/100g in lactose-free yoghurt, including sugar, respectively – 5.8 and 0 g/100 g. The energy value and caloric content were higher in the yoghurt sample with “blueberry” filling. The conditional viscosity of the test samples was respectively 1 min. 30 sec. and 59 sec. The degree of syneresis in the samples of organic drinking yoghurt with “blueberry” filling and lactose-free organic yoghurt was 55 and 45%, moisture content was 44.07 and 39.49%, respectively. The results obtained are relevant for understanding the changes in the properties of lactose-free yoghurts compared to the conventional type of this fermented milk product

Published: December 2021

Objective: Recurrent cerebral ischemic events are estimated to appear in between 12-15% of symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD), regardless of the use of leading pharmacological therapies. Balloon expandable stent (balloon mounted coronary stent) could represent a feasible alternative in this disease’s treatment. This study pretends to report the balloon-expandable placement experience in our center. Materials and Methods: A unicentric retrospective study dated between September 2009 and March 2018 was conducted. Patients previously diagnosed with ICAD and symptomatic stenosis treated with balloon-expandable stent were included. Clinical features, morbidity, mortality, short and long-term evolution, and pre-and post-treatment angiographic features were analyzed, as well as a mean 8 years-period follow-up. Data are presented as means, frequencies, and percentages for categorical variables, and ranks for continuous variables. Statistical analysis was carried by IBM SPSS Statistics Base V22.0 (IBM Corporation, Mexico). A Wilcoxon Signed-rank test statistical analysis was performed. Statistical significance was considered when a p-value lesser than 0.05 was measured for every result. Results: A total of 6 patients with 7 affected vessels were treated, with an average age of 62.7 years. Affected and treated vessels were located in the Internal Carotid Artery (ICA) segment in 42.9%, Vertebral Artery (VA) V4 segment in 14.3%, Middle Cerebral Artery (MCA) M1 segment in 28.5%, and Posterior Cerebral Artery (PCA) P1 segment in 14.3%. The incidence of peri-operatory thrombotic events was 0%. Intracranial hemorrhage presented in 0% of cases. Recurrent ischemic or thrombotic events were not reported in a 97-months mean follow-up. 71.4% of patients scored ≤2 in the modified Rankin Score (mRS) pre-treatment, in a 90 day and 12-month follow-up. 100% presented a favorable evolution with mRS ≤2. Restenosis cases were not reported in radiologic control and retreatment was not needed in a 97-month mean follow-up. Conclusions: This study suggests that balloon-expandable stent therapy with some technical endovascular variants for its navigation and placement could be a safe and effective alternative in the treatment of ICAD as a means of cerebral ischemic event early secondary prevention. We propose to consider not to limit endovascular treatment exclusively to those symptomatic ICAD patients refractory to medical-exclusive treatment, as a means to reduce the risk of presenting a new neurological deficit. Further expanded clinical trials are needed to confirm these findings and the advantage of this kind of stents against other kinds reported in the literature.

Published: December 2021

Hypothyroidism is a common endocrine disease which occurs when the levels of Thyroid hormones produced by the Thyroid gland are decreased. Here we present a case of a 19-year-old female, who presented with symptoms of hyperprolactinemia, weight gain, unilateral blurring of eyes and headache. Examination findings of the patient were significant for presence of Acanthosis Nigricans and Hirsutism. Rest of the systemic examination was normal. Laboratory investigations revealed Hyperprolactinemia, Hypothyroid profile and dyslipidemia. MRI brain and pituitary done showed findings consistent with Pituitary macroadenoma. Patient was treated along the lines of hypothyroidism with Thyroxine. Follow-up after 3 months showed improvement of her symptoms and disappearance of lesion of MRI scan. This case was a rare presentation of Hypothyroidism. Such unusual and uncommon presentations should be reported and studied in detail to prevent misdiagnosis and provide the correct treatment to the patients.

Published: December 2021

Background: Zingerone is one of the active components of ginger that possesses multiple biological activities and anti-inflammatory properties against either radiation effect or cisplatin toxicity. Purpose: to examine the protective effect of zingerone against gamma radiation (IR) or cisplatin-induced immunotoxicity. Material and Methods: 48 rats were divided into six groups as follows: (group-1); normal control group received distilled water; (group-2); rats received Zingerone orally at a dose of 25 mg/kg b.wt. Once / day for 14 consecutive days (Zing.). (group-3); Rats were given a single injection of Cisplatin at a dose of 7.5 mg/kg b.wt. intraperitoneally (Cispl.). (group-4); Rats exposed to a single dose of 6 Gy whole-body gamma irradiation using 137Cesium source in a Gamma cell 40 (Rad.). (group-5); rats received same dose of Zingerone then they were exposed to gamma radiation as in group 4 (Zing+Rad.). (group-6); rats received Zingerone followed by single injection of Cisplatin at the dose of 7.5 mg/kg b.wt. Intraperitoneally (Zing+Cisp.). Results: Exhibited a significant increase in expression of NF-κB, IL-10, caspase-3, and gene expression of TNF-α as well as oxidative stress biomarkers (MDA and NO) levels accompanied with a reduced level of SOD in either whole body-irradiated or cisplatin-received group. Conversely, pro-inflammatory cytokines levels were significantly decreased with an improvement of oxidative stress in groups that received zingerone. Conclusion: It could be concluded that zingerone exerts its antioxidative activity and immunomodulatory effects through inhibition of pro-inflammatory mediators induced by whole body-gamma irradiation or cisplatin administration at two time interval early and late stage of radiation exposure (after 2 h and one week).Therefore, further studies are required to elucidate the molecular signaling pathway concerning zingerone.
Vitamin K deficiency under enteral feeding: real or imagined threat
Authors: E. Naschitz Jochanan , Zaigraykin Natalia , Zlotover Elena , Neime Faisal
Published: December 2021

Patients receiving enteral feeding may develop vitamin K deficiency if the nutrition formula does not meet their daily vitamin K requirement. Vitamin K is essential for clotting factors II, VII, IX and X to be released in their functional form. Under vitamin K deficiency a coagulopathy may develop which is marked by prolongation of the prothrombin time (PT). There might be a need, unrecognized to-day, for monitoring the PT in patients receiving enteral feeding to unmask a latent coagulopathy. We assessed the prevalence of a prolonged PT in patients receiving enteral feeding for 3 months of more with one or a combination of the enteral formulas Osmolite®, Jevity®, Easymilk®. Twenty-three residents in long-term hospital care received solely enteral feeding for an average of 37 months, SD 21 months. The median daily vitamin K supplied by enteral feeding was 96.8 mcg (average 103.3 mcg, SD 28.8); this does not satisfy the 150 mcg of vitamin K required by the Food and Drug Administration. In 21 patients the PT-INR was 1-1.2 (normal). The PT was prolonged in two patients. In one of the latter, prolongation of PT-INR was not confirmed two days later. In the second case, the patient having repeatedly a PT-INR 1.4 (and a normal APTT), administration of vitamin K did not correct the PT. In conclusion, long-term vitamin K-deficient nutrition did not affect the vitamin K-dependent coagulation. This data may argue against the supposed need to monitor the PT in patients receiving long-term enteral nutrition.

Authors: Singh Sarmukh , A H Mohd , H Azmi
Published: December 2021

Background: Duodenal diverticulum is the second most common location following the large bowel. Only 1–5% of patients with DD are symptomatic. Complications of duodenal diverticulum includes obstruction of duodenum, biliary pancreatic duct, pancreatitis, haemorrhage, diverticulitis with or without perforation, and other biliopancreatic manifestations including fistula formation in the bile duct, choledocholithiasis and cholangitis, bezoar formation inside the diverticulum, perforation and bleeding. Surgical or non-surgical treatment are considered in selected patient in treating perforated duodenal diverticulum. Case Presentation: We present a 69 year old gentleman presented to emergency department with complaint of passing out blackish stool for 2 days duration associated with presyncopal attack. On arrival, patient appear pale with class 3 hypovolemic shock symptoms. Abdominal examination revealed mild tenderness over epigastric region without signs of peritonism. Digital rectal examination showed fresh melena. Oesophagogastroduodenoscopy (OGDS) showed a huge diverticulum at duodenum (D3) with pooling of blood and blood clots. In view of bleeding at D3 diverticulum,adrenaline was injected and haemoclipped was applied. Hemostasis from bleeding duodenal diverticulum was successfuly secured. However, patient had iatrogenic perforated duodenal diverticulum. Conclusion: We present a case of upper gastrointestinal bleeding from a D3 diverticulum with iatrogenic perforated duodenal diverticulum due to endoscopic hemostasisinjection.We treated this patient conservatively by keep nil by mouth and started on parentral nutritional support, intravenous antibiotics and serial abdominal examination. We advocate in duodenal diverticulum bleeding the application of endoscopic clips and injection should be use juridiously. In case of iatrogenic perforation of duodenum diverticulum due to endoscopic hemostasis can still be treated conservatively in stable, elderly patients with no signs of diffuse peritonitis and no clinical evidence of sepsis

Published: December 2021

Tobacco in cigarettes is a legal drug that can cause death for those who consume it. Until now smoking can cause various complications that have an impact on health such as cancer and heart disease. Behavioral theory such as TPB (Theory of Planned Behavior) is a behavior-based nursing theory that allows behavior change to minimize the impact of smoking. And until now there is no standardized instrument that measures a person's smoking behavior using the TPB application. Therefore, this study will develop a TPB model of smoking behavior instrument. This research is a non-experimental cross sectional study through validity and reliability tests carried out in 4 stages: literature review, instrument development, Content Validity Index and Internal consistency reliability. The reliability test was carried out on 93 respondents who were taken by accidental sampling with the criteria of male smokers aged 15 to 60 years, no history of disease due to smoking, willing to be participants and able to read and write. Internal consistency reliability analysis through Cronbach's Alpha value. The results of the study showed that as many as 40 instrument items had been developed, with an average I-CVI value of 4 experts being 0.75-1.0. While the average Cronbach's Alpha value reached 0.870. The smoking behavior instrument that measures the TPB component that has been developed is valid and reliable.

Abstract

Social media, as part of human life, has positive and negative impacts. Even though negative impacts have been identified, positive impacts are rarely studied. The identification of positive impacts will be useful for social media users and can be a source of information and prevention of health problems for social media users. This study used a cross-sectional design with a purposive sampling method. The research was conducted on people who live in Ponorogo and use social media. The results showed psychological well-being on social media users at normal levels and mild stress. The influencing factors are gender and education. Education to the public needs to be provided about the positive effects of social media on psychological wellbeing, especially at stress levels so that the risk of increasing mental disorders can be minimized.

Published: December 2021

Density is among the key properties of liquid food media, affecting homogenisation and dispersion. The work aimed to study the temperature effect on fruit puree density, determine temperature constants and grade purees by density. The study included apple, pear and cherry plum purees. Pycnometric densities were measured at 20, 30, 40 and 50ºC temperatures. Different media were shown to vary in the density reduction rate at increasing measurement temperatures. The correlation coefficient was strongly dependent on the reference (baseline) density and extremely — on temperature coefficient. Correlation dynamics modelling of elevating temperature revealed the slope vs. temperature coefficient pairwise correlation to monotonously increase starting from very high baseline values of >0.999. The relative slope vs. baseline density pairwise correlation coefficient decreased monotonously from 0.9032. It was additionally found that the media density grading is temperature-dependent. Thus, the descending series was pear–apple–cherry plum at 0–+24.68ºC, pear–cherry plum–apple at +24.68–+84.34ºC, cherry plum–pear–apple at +84.34–+174.31ºC and cherry plum–apple–pear at ≥+174.31ºC. For three study media, the number of temperature ranges inducing puree density gradients was 4. This approach to study thermal impact on the density of food fluids is generally acknowledged and can be successfully applied in the areas, where physical density and its comparative assessment are substantive.

OBJECTIVE

With the expanding indications for and increasing popularity of minimally invasive surgery (MIS) for lumbar spinal fusion, large-scale outcomes analysis to compare MIS approaches with open procedures is warranted.

METHODS

The authors queried the Quality Outcomes Database for patients who underwent elective lumbar fusion for degenerative spine disease. They performed optimal matching, at a 1:2 ratio between patients who underwent MIS and those who underwent open lumbar fusion, to create two highly homogeneous groups in terms of 33 baseline variables (including demographic characteristics, comorbidities, symptoms, patient-reported scores, indications, and operative details). The outcomes of interest were overall satisfaction, decrease in Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), and back and leg pain, as well as hospital length of stay (LOS), operative time, reoperations, and incidental durotomy rate. Satisfaction was defined as a score of 1 or 2 on the North American Spine Society scale. Minimal clinically important difference (MCID) in ODI was defined as ≥ 30% decrease from baseline. Outcomes were assessed at the 3- and 12-month follow-up evaluations.

RESULTS

After the groups were matched, the MIS and open groups consisted of 1483 and 2966 patients, respectively. Patients who underwent MIS fusion had higher odds of satisfaction at 3 months (OR 1.4, p = 0.004); no difference was demonstrated at 12 months (OR 1.04, p = 0.67). Lumbar stenosis, single-level fusion, higher American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status Classification System grade, and absence of spondylolisthesis were most prominently associated with higher odds of satisfaction with MIS compared with open surgery. Patients in the MIS group had slightly lower ODI scores at 3 months (mean difference 1.61, p = 0.006; MCID OR 1.14, p = 0.0495) and 12 months (mean difference 2.35, p < 0.001; MCID OR 1.29, p < 0.001). MIS was also associated with a greater decrease in leg and back pain at both follow-up time points. The two groups did not differ in operative time and incidental durotomy rate; however, LOS was shorter for the MIS group. Revision surgery at 12 months was less likely for patients who underwent MIS (4.1% vs 5.6%, p = 0.032).

CONCLUSIONS

In patients who underwent lumbar fusion for degenerative spinal disease, MIS was associated with higher odds of satisfaction at 3 months postoperatively. No difference was demonstrated at the 12-month follow-up. MIS maintained a small, yet consistent, superiority in decreasing ODI and back and leg pain, and MIS was associated with a lower reoperation rate.

Published: December 2021

OBJECTIVE

Relationships between aneurysm initiation and hemodynamic factors remain unclear since de novo aneurysms are rarely observed. Most previous computational fluid dynamics (CFD) studies have used artificially reproduced vessel geometries before aneurysm initiation for analysis. In this study, the authors investigated the hemodynamic factors related to aneurysm initiation by using angiographic images in patients with cerebral aneurysms taken before and after an aneurysm formation.

METHODS

The authors identified 10 cases of de novo aneurysms in patients who underwent follow-up examinations for existing cerebral aneurysms located at a different vessel. The authors then reconstructed the vessel geometry from the images that were taken before aneurysm initiation. In addition, 34 arterial locations without aneurysms were selected as control cases. Hemodynamic parameters acting on the arterial walls were calculated by CFD analysis.

RESULTS

In all de novo cases, the aneurysmal initiation area corresponded to the highest wall shear stress divergence (WSSD point), which indicated that there was a strong tensile force on the arterial wall at the initiation area. The other previously reported parameters did not show such correlations. Additionally, the pressure loss coefficient (PLc) was statistically significantly higher in the de novo cases (p < 0.01). The blood flow impact on the bifurcation apex, or the secondary flow accompanied by vortices, resulted in high tensile forces and high total pressure loss acting on the vessel wall.

CONCLUSIONS

Aneurysm initiation may be more likely in an area where both tensile forces acting on the vessel wall and total pressure loss are large.

Astaxanthin, a natural antioxidant, is a carotenoid widely used in aquaculture, in the production of trout and shellfish to provide the pink color of meat. Although this application has been used for over thirty years since the nineties, it is one of the most important pigments for food colouring industry today. Additionally, astaxanthin plays an important role in improving egg and sperm quality in fish reproductive processes. The world market is dominated by the use of synthetic astaxanthin, besides, interest in natural sources of the pigment has grown considerably recently. The most common sources of natural astaxanthin are the green algae Haematococcus pluvialis, the red yeast Phaffia rhodozyma, as well as crustacean byproducts. Astaxanthin is an antioxidant that has increased demand in the nutraceutical market as an encapsulated product. In addition, the consumption of astaxanthin has many health benefits, such as the prevention of cardiovascular diseases, strengthening the immune system, bioactivity against Helycobacter pylori, and prevention of cataracts. This article reviews the available evidence on astaxanthin chemistry and its potential beneficial effects on living things
Simile Demonstratives in Croatian

Published: December 2021

We investigate a particular subclass of semantic features associated with demonstratives of quantity and quality, and the respective interrogatives. We explore these lexical elements as they behave linguistically in simile constructions in Croatian. We show that the semantic features that can be focused on in similes are the same as the references of the full system of Croatian demonstratives. However, the possibility to focus on a particular semantic feature by a specific choice of demonstrative or interrogative in simile constructions is being replaced in usage by the generic simile word ‘kao’.

Published: December 2021

Sintaktička složenost jedna je dimenzija proučavanja pripovjednog diskursa. Budući da rezultati dosadašnjih istraživanja nisu jednoznačni, nije jasno koliko su pojedine mjere sintaktičke složenosti osjetljive za razlikovanje jezičnih sposobnosti djece različite dobi te koje su mjere prikladne za uporabu u različitim jezicima. Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je ispitati razlike između šestogodišnjaka i osmogodišnjaka u sintaktičkoj složenosti pripovjednog diskursa rabeći četiri mjere sintaktičke složenosti. Očekivalo se da će se pripovjedni diskursi razlikovati u prosječnoj duljini C-jedinice, prosječnoj duljini klauze, gustoći klauza te broju različitih vrsta zavisnosloženih klauza, pri čemu će osmogodišnjaci pokazivati bolje rezultate na svim mjerama. Drugi je cilj bio opisati koje vrste zavisnosloženih klauza i u kojoj mjeri djeca različite dobi rabe prilikom pripovijedanja. Jezični uzorci izdvojeni su iz korpusa Croatian Frog Story Corpus (Trtanj, Kuvač Kraljević, Hržica 2017). Mjere sintaktičke složenosti izračunate su u programu CLAN, a podaci su obrađeni Mann-Whitney U testom. Dobivene su statistički značajne razlike između dviju dobnih skupina u prosječnoj duljini C-jedinice i prosječnoj duljini klauze, ali ne u gustoći klauza i broju različitih vrsta zavisnosloženih klauza. Očekivano, osmogodišnjaci proizvode pripovjedni diskurs s većom prosječnom duljinom C-jedinice i s većom prosječnom duljinom klauze u odnosu na šestogodišnjake. Pokazalo se i da se od zavisnosloženih klauza najčešće upotrebljavaju priložne. Sukladno ranijim istraživanjima, utvrđene su razlike u sintaktičkoj složenosti na prijelazu iz predškolske u školsku dob. Prosječna duljina C-jedinice i prosječna duljina klauze mjere su koje mogu razlikovati jezične sposobnosti šestogodišnjaka i osmogodišnjaka.
