subassemblies utilizing 3D printing technologies, additive manufacturing
is the recommended technology. The manufacturing parts for automobiles
are produced using 3D printing, an environmentally friendly method of
layer-by-layer material deposition. The goal of this paper is to use a
survey approach to gather information about additive manufacturing for
automotive parts from a variety of well regarded indexed journals.
Additionally, a brief explanation of the various techniques for carrying
out 3D printing procedures for vehicle parts Likewise examining the
relative merits of several techniques in terms of price, accuracy, and
surface quality. Choosing the best inexpensive approach based on price
and other factors
Differential effects of an obesogenic post-weaning diet on male and female behaviour in mice
Authors: Mort Emily , Fordington Surina , Heritage Sophie , Fowden Abigail , Jones Susan , Camm Emily
Published: February 2023

Obesity is rising globally and is associated with neurodevelopmental and
psychiatric disorders among children, adolescents, and young adults.
Whether obesity is the cause or the consequence of these disorders
remains unclear. To examine the behavioural effects of obesity
systematically, locomotion, anxiety, and social behaviour were assessed
in male and female C57Bl/6J mice using the open field (OF), elevated
plus maze (EPM) and social preference (SP) task. First, the effects of
age, sex and prior exposure to the tasks were examined in control mice,
before investigating post-weaning consumption of a high fat, high sugar
(HFHS) diet commonly consumed in human populations with high rates of
obesity. In the OF and EPM, locomotor activity and anxiety-related
behaviours were reduced by age in both sexes, but with different
sex-specific profiles. Prior exposure to the tasks reduced locomotion in
the OF in a sex-specific manner but had little effect on behaviour in
the EPM in either sex. The HFHS diet reduced food and calorie intake and
increased body mass and fat deposition in both sexes. In the OF, both
male and female HFHS mice showed reduced locomotion, whereas, in the
EPM, only HFHS female mice displayed reduced anxiety-related behaviours.
Both male and female HFHS mice had a significantly higher SP index than
controls. Collectively, the findings demonstrate that the behavioural
effects of age, prior exposure and of diet-induced obesity all depend on
the sex of the mouse. This emphasises the importance of including both
sexes when assessing behavioural phenotypes arising from dietary
manipulations.
UPDATE ON THE ROLE OF T CELLS IN COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT
Authors: Ruiz-Fernandez Ignacio , Sanchez-Diaz Raquel , Ortega-Sollero Enrique , Martín Pilar
Published: February 2023

The central nervous system (CNS) has long been considered an
immune-privileged site, with minimal interaction between immune cells,
particularly of the adaptive immune system. Previously, the presence of
immune cells in this organ was primarily linked to events involving
disruption of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) or inflammation. However,
current research has shown that immune cells are found patrolling CNS
under homeostatic conditions. Specifically, T cells of the adaptive
immune system are able to cross the BBB and are associated with aging
and cognitive impairment. In addition, T-cell infiltration has been
observed in pathological conditions, where inflammation correlates with
poor prognosis. Despite ongoing research, the role of this population in
the aging brain under both physiological and pathological conditions is
not yet fully understood. In this review, we provide an overview of the
interactions between T cells and other immune and CNS parenchymal cells,
and examine the molecular mechanisms by which these interactions may
contribute to normal brain function and the scenarios in which
disruption of these connections lead to cognitive impairment. A
comprehensive understanding of the role of T cells in the aging brain
and the underlying molecular pathways under normal conditions could pave
the way for new research to better understand brain disorders.

Authors: Li Long , Tian Yu , Chen Xinghai , Yu Fan , Feng Jiayi , Huang Guimin , Ren Xianghai , Hu Huimin , Zhang Weiling
Published: February 2023

Background: We aimed to retrospectively investigate the role of
neoadjuvant chemotherapy in low-risk patients with hepatoblastoma (HB)
who underwent curative resection between February 2009 and December
2017. We also verified the feasibility of the risk stratification system
to select the optimal patients for upfront resection.
Procedure: We compared 5-year overall survival (OS) and
event-free survival (EFS) between the upfront surgery (US) (n=26) and
neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NC) (n=104) groups at three oncology centers
in Beijing, China. To reduce the effect of covariate imbalances,
propensity score matching (PSM) was used. We explored whether
preoperative chemotherapy affected surgical outcomes and identified the
risk factors for events and death, including resection margin status,
PRETreatment EXTent of disease stages, age, sex, pathology
classification, and α-fetoprotein levels. Results: The median
follow-up period was 64 months (interquartile range 60–72). After PSM,
22 pairs of patients were identified and the patient characteristics
were similar for all variables included in propensity score matching. In
the US group, the 5-year EFS and OS rates were 81.8% and 86.3%,
respectively. In the NC group, 5-year EFS and OS rates were 81.8% and
90.9%, respectively. No significant differences in EFS or OS were
observed between the groups. Pathological classification was the only
risk factor for death and disease progression, tumor recurrence,
diagnosis of other malignant neoplasms, and death from any cause (
p=0.007 and p=0.032, respectively). Conclusion:
Upfront resection can achieve long-term disease control in low-risk
patients with resectable HB, thus reducing the cumulative toxicity of
platinum-based chemotherapy drugs.
A Pharmacist-Led Practice to Improve Perioperative Glycemic Control in Elective Surgery
Authors: Morin Nathaniel P.
Published: February 2023

  

The South Health Campus (SHC) is a tertiary care hospital located in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. It has ~275 inpatient beds and multiple outpatient clinics serving Calgary and Southern Alberta. SHC has team-based pharmacy services coverage, through which the same pharmacist team will cover an inpatient unit and that unit’s corresponding outpatient clinic. For example, the inpatient cardiology pharmacist team also works in the hospital’s outpatient cardiology clinic and the inpatient neurology pharmacist team also works in the neurology outpatient clinic.

Surgical pharmacist team members split their time between the inpatient surgical unit and the outpatient pre-admission clinic (PAC). In the PAC, people with planned surgery are seen by a team of internists, anesthesiologists, nurses, and pharmacists if they have complex medical conditions (e.g., coronary artery disease, inflammatory bowel disease on biologic drug therapy, active cancer, or an indication for anticoagulation therapy). This pre-surgery process is to ensure that patients are medically optimized before surgery and to provide recommendations for perioperative care to the surgeons.

In the PAC, patients with diabetes are given standardized recommendations based on internal guidelines for which oral antidiabetic medications they should take or hold on the morning of surgery and, if applicable, how to adjust their long-acting insulin the day of or night before surgery.

Gifted Students within the Greek Educational Context: Challenges and Perspectives in the Frame of Contemporary Inclusive European Education
Authors: Riga Asimina , Malafantis Konstantinos
Published: February 2023

Practitioners and researchers in the field of gifted education recognize cognitive and psychosocial variables as determining influences in the successful development of talent. Gifted children seem to manifest both signs of intelligence and strong abilities especially in sectors related to their interests provided that they are identified in time and they are appropriately motivated. The aim of the article is not only to present contemporary inclusive methods or both gifted and talented children’s education in European countries but also to focus on how such students are educated when it comes to the Greek curricula.  This review paper further pinpoints the certain conditions under which Greek educational settings of gifted and talented students can become both feasible and effective. Τherefore, it concludes that gifted pupils of all levels in Greece often attend school classes without their individual abilities having been previously recognized in depth, nor their intrinsic needs having been sufficiently met, either. Additionally, the current school system actually fails to take full advantage of gifted students’ potential, a fact that obviously disrupts their motivation and impedes their school performance.

The actualization of local culture in Indonesia is expected to maintain the existence and value of local identity, which has been the hallmark of this culture. Malay Deli is one of the local cultures in Indonesia that tries to maintain cultural values in conditions of very strong degradation. So it is necessary to look at the patterns practiced by the Malays in maintaining and mitigating this degradation. In Weber's sociological study, to maintain the value of interaction, it is necessary to have human action so that a pattern is formed that has an impact on society. This research wants to see how the patterns of social interaction in the Malay Coastal Community differ. This study uses an interpretative paradigm process, a qualitative descriptive approach, and a case study type of research. The research locations were in the coastal area of the Metar Bilad Deli Vocational School and the Percut Vocational Area. techniques of collecting interview data (interviewing, observation, and documentation), placing purposive sampling subjects, condensing data analysis techniques, presenting data, and drawing conclusions. techniques for the validity of the credibility test, using materials and member checks. The research results obtained showed that a new pattern was formed, namely harmonious structural wisdom, habitual bargaining culture, leader cooptation combinations, historical culture combinations, and action interaction plans. The recommendations given need to strengthen Malay cultural values through learning, such as regional-based local content, and increase the competitive value of Malay Deli coastal communities through high trust.

Choroby układu oddechowego to najczęstsze przewlekłe schorzenia występujące zarówno u dzieci, jak i u dorosłych. Istnieje zatem potrzeba posiadania skutecznych leków kontrolujących przebieg choroby, a także leków szybko działających, odpowiednich do stosowania w stanach ostrych. Takimi lekami są glikokortykosteroidy (GKS) podawane drogą inhalacyjną. Wszystkie rekomendacje umieszczają wziewne GKS jako jedne z podstawowych leków w leczeniu schorzeń dróg oddechowych u dzieci i dorosłych. Jednym z najlepiej poznanych i przebadanych GKS jest budezonid. Budezonid to syntetyczny, niehalogenowy glikokortykosteroid o bardzo silnym działaniu przeciwalergicznym i przeciwzapalnym. Jest skuteczny zarówno w chorobach przewlekłych (np. astmie i przewlekłej obturacyjnej chorobie płuc [POChP]), jak i w stanach nagłych (np. zaostrzeniu chorób przewlekłych, ostrym zapaleniu krtani). W artykule przedstawiono typowe przykłady klinicznego zastosowania wziewnego budezonidu w ostrym podgłośniowym zapaleniu krtani (zespół krupu, pseudokrup), w zaostrzeniach POChP oraz astmie oskrzelowej. We wszystkich tych przypadkach budezonid okazał się skutecznym i bezpiecznym lekiem.

Acetaminofen i ibuprofen to leki często stosowane w przypadku gorączki u dzieci. Ich mechanizmy działania są różne: ibuprofen to nieselektywny inhibitor COX, natomiast acetaminofen prawdopodobnie oprócz hamowania COX oddziałuje na zstępujące rdzeniowe szlaki serotoninergiczne. Oba leki mogą być stosowane jednocześnie: w postaci preparatu łączonego bądź naprzemiennie. Skuteczność obu schematów została przebadana przez Paula i Walsona.

Published: February 2023

Bacterial (Granville) wilt, caused by Ralstonia solanacearum is a major disease of tobacco in both North and South Carolina. In contrast, Granville wilt rarely occurs on tobacco in Georgia and Florida. This difference was documented over fifty years ago and, today, it is still not understood. Isolates of R. solanacearum from tobacco and tomato were collected from Florida, Georgia, North and South Carolina. All isolates were identified as race 1, biovar 1. The polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based fingerprinting technique, rep-PCR, was used to generate genomic fingerprints that were used to assess the genetic diversity of the R. solanacearum isolates. Bands were scored as present or absent and converted to band-sharing distances. A similarity matrix was generated and used to produce neighbor-joining trees. A highly branched tree that is indicative of the heterogeneity of the isolates in each of the states was constructed. South Carolina isolates segregated from Georgia, North Carolina and Florida isolates. Additionally, South Carolina isolates clustered as a function of the host from which they were isolated. Two isolates from tobacco and two from tomato, from both Georgia and South Carolina, were evaluated for aggressiveness on the susceptible tobacco cultivar, K 326, under controlled environment conditions. Five aggressiveness groups were defined. The tobacco isolates caused the most severe wilt symptoms, however one tobacco isolate was only weakly virulent. Only two of the four tomato isolates were pathogenic on tobacco. There was no correlation between genotypic and aggressiveness groupings. [Beitr. Tabakforsch. Int. 19 (2001) 323-331]

Published: February 2023

Choices of childbirth places among women may influence the rate of maternal mortality which is still a major challenge especially in developing countries like Nigeria. Some of these choices could be influenced by social and economic factors and the commonest being home birth which increases maternal risks. This study aimed to find out the prevalent socio-economic factors that influence the birthplace choices among the women in a suburban community in Rivers State, Nigeria. The study utilized a descriptive, cross-sectional design. Respondents were selected through simple random sampling. A self-structured questionnaire was used to collect data for the study. The data were analyzed using frequency and percentage for descriptive statistics and chi-square for inferential statistics with the SPSS software at 0.05 level of significance. The result showed that most of the women had secondary education (57.1%) and choose health facility for childbirth (91.4%).There was significant association between distance (x²= 12.69, p= 0.005)and available finance (x²= 10.26, p= 0.016), and educational qualifications (x²= 18.75, p= 0.005)and the choices of childbirth places among the women, but there was no significant association between road access to health facility (x²= 5.47, p= 0.140)and unavailability of skilled birth personnel (x²= 6.23, p= 0.101) and income (x²= 8.38, p= 0.212) and choices of childbirth places among the women.

Introduction> Postpartum complications are important health problems in Peru, therefore it is necessary to determine their associated factors. Objectives: Determine the factors associated with postpartum complications in Peru during the years 2019 and 2020. Methods: Cross-sectional, analytical study, carried out from the analysis of the Demographic and Family Health Survey (ENDES) 2019-2020, of Peru. The unit of analysis was women between the ages of 12 and 49 residing in Peru in the years 2019-2020. Multivariate analysis was performed using Poisson regression with robust variance. Results: It is evidenced that the age of 20 to 35 years has a prevalence ratio of 1.12 of ending in complications after childbirth (PRa: 1.12, 95% CI: 1.07 to 1.18) compared to women who have 36 years and over. Having complications during childbirth has a 2.75 times higher prevalence of complications after childbirth (APR: 2.75, 95% CI: 2.64 to 2866). Having a degree of primary (RPa: 0.90, 95% CI: 0.84 to 0.96), secondary (RPa: 0.94, 95% CI: 0.89 to 0.98) education decreases the probability of having complications after childbirth compared to women with a higher level of education. and having a single marital status (APR 0.85, 95% CI: 0.76 to 0.94) decreases the probability of having complications after childbirth, compared to cohabitants. Conclution. The prevalence of postpartum complications is regular. The factors associated with postpartum complications are: age, educational level, marital status and complications during childbirth.
Ghost cell glaucoma: Clinic case
Authors: Mamani Maquera Diego José , Pantoja Dávalos Nahuel
Published: February 2023

Introduction: Ghost cell glaucoma (GCG) is a very rare secondary open angle glaucoma, in which there is a sustained increase in intraocular pressure (IOP) due to obstruction of the trabecular meshwork (TM) due to the passage of ghost cells (GC) from the vitreous into the anterior chamber, after a vitreous hemorrhage (VH). Clinical Case: We present the case of a male patient with a history of vitreous hemorrhage and sustained IOP elevation in the right eye (RE). Medical treatment was insufficient, for this reason surgical treatment was required. Postoperative evolution was favorable. Conclusion: This pathology should prefer the differential diagnosis of traumatic glaucomas, correlating high clinical suspicion and histological confirmation.

Introduction: There is a wide range of seawater products for nasal lavages. Their efficacy and superiority over conventional saline solutions are not well established. Objectives: To analyse the best-selling seawater products, as well as reviewing the most recent literature regarding nasal lavages. Methods: Comparative study of composition, administration mode, age indicated for its use, price and bibliography provided on the web of the seawater products usually available in pharmacies. Analysis of the bibliography provided and review of the scientific evidence regarding nasal lavages with saline solutions or seawater. Results: 44 products from 11 manufacturers were analysed. The concentration of sodium chloride varies from 0.9% to 2.5%. The most frequent mode of application is spray. The addition of plants, salts and other components is common. Only two brands provide bibliographic references on their website. According to the literature reviewed, both saline solutions and seawater seem especially useful in the treatment of upper respiratory tract infections and allergic rhinitis. Conclusions: There is no solid scientific evidence regarding the benefits of nasal lavages. With the current evidence it is not possible to recommend seawater over conventional saline or to establish the optimal concentration of the solution or the most convenient mode of administration. The addition of elements to seawater solutions is not justified enough.

Mr Editor Infection at the operating site (ISO) is the most common postoperative surgical complication in general surgery. This is more frequent in cases of emergency interventions, compromises the patient's prognosis, causes high health costs, and significantly increases the risk of reintervention. Negative pressure therapy (NPT) is an innovative strategy that was proposed about two decades ago, and has been gradually replicated around the world. This means that there are still many gaps in the evidence when it is used in many diseases and under different contexts. Nevertheless, it allows obtaining conclusive results in the time of healing, reduction of complications (mainly dehiscence and ISO), decrease in hospital stay, among other factors.

Published: February 2023

Patients with left-sided pneumothorax presenting with electrocardiogram (ECG) changes resembling acute coronary syndrome (ACS) have been reported in the literature. Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) occurs predominantly in post-menopausal women with underlying intense emotional or physical stress. However, as this case report shows, it can complicate any acute illness leading to intense stress. We report a rare combination of ECG changes mimicking ACS in a man with a large right-sided pneumothorax and TCM.

Background:

Accurate assessment and evaluation of health interventions are crucial to evidence-based care. The use of outcome measures in neurosurgery grew with the introduction of the Glasgow Coma Scale. Since then, various outcome measures have appeared, some of which are disease-specific and others more generally. This article aims to address the most widely used outcome measures in three major neurosurgery subspecialties, “vascular, traumatic, and oncologic,” focusing on the potential, advantages, and drawbacks of a unified approach to these outcome measures.

Methods:

A literature review search was conducted by using PubMed MEDLINE and Google scholar Databases. Data for the three most common outcome measures, The Modified Rankin Scale (mRS), The Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS), and The Karnofsky Performance Scale (KPS), were extracted and analyzed.

Results:

The original objective of establishing a standardized, common language for the accurate categorization, quantification, and evaluation of patients’ outcomes has been eroded. The KPS, in particular, may provide a common ground for initiating a unified approach to outcome measures. With clinical testing and modification, it may offer a simple, internationally standardized approach to outcome measures in neurosurgery and elsewhere. Based on our analysis, Karnofsky’s Performance Scale may provide a basis of reaching a unified global outcome measure.

Conclusion:

Outcome measures in neurosurgery, including mRS, GOS, and KPS, are widely utilized assessment tools for patients’ outcomes in various neurosurgical specialties. A unified global measure may offer solutions with ease of use and application; however, there are limitations.

Published: February 2023

В статье экспериментальным путем подобрана оптимальная методика пробоподготовки раковин остракод для измерения соотношения стабильных изотопов кислорода. Благодаря проведенной работе удалось установить, что легкого физического воздействия –механического удаления налипшего загрязняющего материала тонкой щеткой-кисточкой, намоченной в дистиллированной воде или этаноле, достаточно. В применении кипячения, ультразвуковой очистки, использовании деионизированной воды или перекиси водорода необходимость существует исключительно в случае крайне высокой степени загрязнения раковины. Работа по такой системе имеет значительные преимущества: во-первых, исключается потеря проб и повторное загрязнение на этапе предварительной обработки; во-вторых, снижается рабочая нагрузка и значительно упрощается подготовка проб.

The article shows the optimal technique for ostracod shells sample preparation to measure the stable oxygen ratio selected experimentally. Slight physical impact – mechanical removal of adhering polluting material with a thin brush soaked in distilled water or ethanol – is sufficient. Boiling, ultrasonic cleaning, the use of deionized water or hydrogen peroxide is only in case of high contamination of the ostracod shell. Such work system has significant advantages: firstly, sample loss and re-contamination at the pre-treatment stage are eliminated; secondly, the workload is reduced and sample preparation is greatly simplified.

Клевер (Medicago) растение относится к группе многолетних бобовых растений. Это одно из самых распространенных многолетних бобовых растений в нашей стране. Клевер используют как траву, растительную белково-витаминную муку, сено, силос, кормовые брикеты, зеленую подкормку. Такое разнообразие использования обусловлено тем, что клевер богат растительными белками с высоким содержанием незаменимых аминокислот. Он также характеризуется высоким содержанием зольных элементов, особенно кальция и магния, микроэлементов и бета-каротина. По содержанию основных аминокислот и микроэлементов клевер превосходит зерно, кукурузу и овес. Среди микроэлементов клевер содержит медь, марганец, молибден, бор и кобальт – элементы, необходимые для нормального развития организма животных.

Clover (Medicago) plant belongs to the group of perennial legumes. It is one of the most common perennial legumes in our country. Clover is used as grass, vegetable protein-vitamin flour, hay, silage, fodder briquettes, and green top dressing. Such diversity of use is determined by the fact that clover is rich in plant proteins with a high content of essential amino acids. It is also characterized by a high content of ash elements, especially calcium and magnesium, microelements and beta-carotene. Clover is superior to grain, corn and oats in terms of the content of basic amino acids and trace elements. Among microelements, clover contains copper, manganese, molybdenum, boron and cobalt – elements necessary for the normal development of the animal organism [1].
