Herald Patch as the Only Evidence of Pityriasis Rosea: Clinical, Laboratory and Pathogenetic Features
Authors: Drago Francesco , Herzum Astrid , Varesano Serena , Serviddio Gaetano , Broccolo Francesco , Ciccarese Giulia
Published: January 2025

Pityriasis rosea (PR) is a self-limited exanthem associated with the endogenous systemic reactivation of human herpesvirus (HHV)-6 and HHV-7. The disease typically begins with a single erythematous patch on the trunk (herald patch), followed by a secondary eruption of smaller papulosquamous lesions. Rarely, the herald patch may be the only cutaneous manifestation of PR. The present work aimed to examine the clinical and laboratory features of the PR cases characterized by the herald patch as the sole cutaneous manifestation and to compare them with the classic form of PR. An observational, retrospective study was conducted on patients presenting with herald patch as the only sign of PR (cases) and on a series of age- and sex-matched patients who presented with a typical PR pattern (controls). The records of the patients were extracted from a PR registry, which collected data on patients with PR diagnosed from 2003 to 2023 by at least two dermatologists from the same study team. Nineteen patients (eleven males, eight females) with a mean age of 27.1 years presented the herald patch as the only cutaneous manifestation of PR. Nineteen age- and sex-matched patients were considered controls. In the cases, the exanthem duration was shorter than in controls, and the mean HHV-6 and HHV-7 DNA plasma load was lower than in controls. This rare variant of PR might be considered an abortive form of the exanthem that occurs when the HHV-6/7 reactivation from latency is contrasted by a more robust immunological response than in classic PR.

Routing of patients in critical conditions associated with pregnancy, childbirth, and
the postpartum period is an extremely important aspect of organizing medical care for this
group of patients. Ensuring the safety of medical evacuation and developing transportation
routes, indications and contraindications for its implementation, and algorithms for providing
medical care at the evacuation stage are an essential factor in the regionalization of perinatal
care, allowing to improve outcomes for both the mother and the newborn.

A comprehensive assessment of the physiological state of animals should include a study of
hormone levels and their correlations with different hematological, biochemical, physicochemical and cytogenetic parameters. Hormonal status is an important integral indicator reflecting the general condition
of the organism and the adaptive capabilities of animals. The average values, variability and reference
intervals of sex and thyroid hormones in sheep of Romanov breed in Western Siberia were determined.
No significant correlations were found between the levels of the studied hormones in the blood serum.
Average and high correlations of various directions were found between the hormone levels with some
biochemical, physicochemical and cytogenetic parameters. Thus, triiodothyronine correlated positively
with the number of leukocytes (r=0.441) and urea (r=0.509), but negatively with conjugated bilirubin
(r=–0.558). Thyroid hormones were largely associated with biochemical parameters. Sex hormones were
associated in many cases with the level of heavy metals in some organs of sheep. Thus, estradiol was
positively associated with the copper content in the heart (r=0.463) and liver (r=0.439), but negatively
with the lead level in the lungs (r=–0.499). Negative correlations were found between the thyroid hormone
content and some indices of somatic chromosomal instability. Thus, the level of triiodothyronine
negatively correlated with the frequency of chromosome aberrations (r=–0.527), and thyroxine with the
frequency of chromosome breaks (r=–0.639).
Current technologies in craniological research of cattle of Yaroslavl and Kholmogory breeds
Authors:   Federal State Budgetary Educational Institution of Higher Education Russian State Agrarian University – Moscow Timiryazev Agricultural Academy, Russia, Moscow, Boronetskaya O. I.
Published: January 2025

Craniometric studies play a key role in the anthropology and morphology of animals; allow us
to study the patterns of variations and relationships in the structure of the skull. A comparative analysis of the morphological characteristics of the skulls of Yaroslavl and Kholmogory breeds of cattle has been presented in the article. The purpose of the research was to study the craniological indicators of the skulls of Yaroslavl and Kholmogory breeds based on a current technique of scanning and analyzing 3D models.
The research was carried out at the E. F. Liskun State Museum of Animal Husbandry. The material for the
research was the skulls of cattle from the craniological collection of the museum of two breeds Yaroslavl
(n=40) and Kholmogory (n=33). For the study, the 3D scanning method was used, as well as measure ments of three-dimensional models according to the A. Vonden Driesch method for the genus Bos, including
48 measurements. Additionally, nine craniometric indices were calculated. The use of 3D scanning and
specialized software opens up new possibilities for craniological research, allowing for a more in-depth
analysis of the morphological features of the skulls, identifying subtle diff erences and studying the evolution of breeds, and also allows for the creation of digital models of the skulls available for further research.
Yaroslavl and Kholmogory breeds demonstrate similar craniological characteristics, which allows them to
be classified as belonging to the same craniological type Bos taurus primigenius.

The article considers theoretical issues of assessing the sustainability of the banking system using the DL-model "Random Forest" and the "Hurwitz" matrix in a turbulent economy. Noting the main aspects that determine the relevance of the study, two points should be noted: firstly, that in modern conditions artificial intelligence systems are very often used in scientific research, and secondly, new approaches that allow filling the existing gaps in theoretical issues regarding the aspects of assessing the financial stability of the banking system in a turbulent economy remain in demand. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that the study puts forward and proves the hypothesis that with the help of the artifi cial intelligence system DL-model "Random Forest" it is possible to obtain an accurate forecast of the net profi t of the banking system, which can be used to assess the sustainability of the banking system according to the Hurwitz criterion. The practical significance lies in the fact that the results
obtained in the course of the study can be recommended for implementation in practice to provide support for management
decisions in developing a development strategy for the Russian banking system. The accuracy of the obtained DL model forecast is characterized by the mean error of the forecast (MAE). The best decision tree is used in the generated DL model. The Random Forest DL model was generated using optimal hyperparameter settings.
La Tène stamp-decorated pottery in the eastern Carpathian basin. Regional perspectives
Authors:   School of Advanced Studies of the Romanian Academy (SCOSAAR), Cluj‑Napoca Branch, Cirț Roxana
Published: January 2025

This research paper offers an in-depth examination of La Tène stamp-decorated pottery from the Eastern Carpathian Basin, with an emphasis on findings from contemporary Romania. With a focal point on pottery assemblages from production sites we begin to analyze five basic stamped motifs: concentric circles, crescents, S’s, lyres, and cruciform motifs. These are common to different mediums of craft expression and are territorially widespread, occurring with varying intensity throughout the Carpathian Basin. The study presents a regional analysis by synthesising archaeological findings from various production and consumption sites and discussing regional inventories, decorative styles and the typology and chronology of stamped decoration. It uses archaeological data to improve our understanding of regional pottery practices and integrates these findings into a broader European context. This approach reveals the interconnectedness and unique features of La Tène stamped pottery in the Eastern Carpathian Basin.
From churchyard to urban public cemetery. A preliminary assessment of the funerary spaces in Late Medieval and Early Modern Cluj
Authors:   National Museum of Transylvanian History Cluj-Napoca, Toda Oana , Varga Gianina-Diana ,   National Museum of Transylvanian History Cluj-Napoca
Published: January 2025

This study contextualises funerary practices in Cluj in the early modern period by presenting an overview of known burial grounds and isolated graves, analysed within the framework of the religious and administrative norms. Using historical data and the available archaeological research results, it retraces burial ground dynamics over three centuries, focusing on the gradual relocation of cemeteries to extra-mural areas starting from the second half of the 16th century. The complex interplay between theological doctrines and administrative regulations shaped this transition. Future archaeological research and publications are essential to confirm burial practices, explore deviations from norms, and enhance understanding of societal and mental shifts in attitudes toward death and burial.

Les traditions d’accueil des nouveaux arrivants à l’école vétérinaire d’Alfort
Authors: Maufre Vincent , Poly Nicolas
Published: January 2025

Les pratiques du bizutage ont toujours fait l’objet d’intenses débats de société. Vraisemblablement aussi anciennes que l’institution, les « brimades » ont ainsi marqué durant plus de deux siècles l’intégration des nouveaux élèves de l’Ecole d’Alfort. Toutefois, aucune étude ne s’était auparavant intéressée pleinement à ces moments importants de la vie de la communauté alforienne. Seul le souvenir de chacun pouvait être aujourd’hui source d’information. Aussi avons-nous mené un réel travail de mémoire, en collectant près de trois cents témoignages, écrits et oraux, auprès de confrères intégrés entre 1932 et nos jours. Ce travail dresse un aperçu historique et social du bizutage, avant de s’intéresser à l’évolution des brimades d’Alfort, dans les faits et les mentalités. Il permet de comprendre comment ces pratiques, devenues anachroniques depuis longtemps, ont pu se perpétuer jusqu’en 2005, au nom de la « tradition ».

1917-1918. La question des effectifs équins
Authors: Milhaud Claude
Published: January 2025

In the spring of 1917, French Armies had difficulties feeding their 1.100.000 horses and mules, and therefore were forced to reduce their number. Through the reorganization of units and the weeding out of the weakest animals, the effectives were reduced to 924.000 by the 1st of November 1917. These measures did not prevent a food rationing. In January 1918, it was decided that the American Expeditionary Force would be supplied with 160.000 horses and mules. These decisions only worsen the shortage of horses for the French Armies. At the right moment, the armistice of 11 November allows avoiding a catastrophic fall both in number and quality of horses.

Sérothérapie et Grande Guerre
Authors: Schwartz Maxime
Published: January 2025

Serotherapy represented a major advance in the fight against infectious diseases. Medical doctors and veterinarians permanently collaborated both in the invention of this new therapeutic procedure in the 1890’ s and in its use, especially during the World War I. The emergency of serotherapy resulted from the work conducted in parallel on diphtheria by Emile Roux’s group at the Institut Pasteur and Emil Behring’s group in the laboratory of Robert Koch in Berlin. It consisted in immunizing horses with partially inactivated diphtheria toxin and then using the serum from these horses, which contained antitoxin (it was the discovery of the first antibodies) to treat children with diphtheria. Applied to the prevention of tetanus to patients suffering from deep wounds, serotherapy saved the lives of millions of soldiers during World War I. It was also applied to cure or prevent other infectious diseases such as plague, dysentery or gangrene, and in the protection against the toxins from snake venom. It constituted a first step in the development of some of the most widely used vaccines, such as those against diphtheria and tetanus. Since it was not exempt from serious side effects, serotherapy was later supplanted by antibiotics. However, it is now making a spectacular comeback with the use of monoclonal antibodies to treat various types of diseases.
Une brève histoire de l’anatomie vétérinaire en France, pour comprendre comment le passé conditionne le présent
Authors: Degueurce Christophe
Published: January 2025

Si l’anatomie vétérinaire a commencé son développement au XVIIIe siècle avec les traités de Bourgelat, consacrés de façon quasi exclusive au Cheval, c’est à l’alforien Jean Girard qu’on doit les premiers ouvrages d’anatomie comparée impliquant tous les mammifères domestiques, et l’élaboration d’une nouvelle nomenclature anatomique adaptée à l’ensemble des quadrupèdes. C’est à Lyon, en 1855, qu’Auguste Chauveau publiait le traité qui allait devenir l’oeuvre phare du XIXe siècle. Le toulousain Montané allait révolutionner l’approche de l’anatomie à la fin du siècle en proposant une méthode d’apprentissage fondé sur l’approche de l’anatomie par les régions corporelles, et non plus par les systèmes anatomiques. Au XXe siècle, certaines Écoles vétérinaires devinrent « régionalistes » , parfois même brièvement, tandis que d’autres demeuraient «systématiques » , occasionnant des tensions entre anatomistes. Ces choix pédagogiques limitent toujours les capacités de collaboration des Écoles vétérinaires françaises en matière d’anatomie.
Aperçu historique de l’évolution de l’uniforme des vétérinaires militaires (1769-1914). Première partie
Authors: Dumas Emmanuel , Cabre Olivier
Published: January 2025

Cet article présente les évolutions successives de l’uniforme des vétérinaires militaires de leur création en 1769 jusqu’en 1914. Dotés initialement de l’uniforme de leur unité d’affectation porté avec des galons de maréchal des logis, ils se verront attribués en 1812 un uniforme spécifique qui connaitra de nombreuses modifications tant en qu’en ce qui concerne sa forme et sa couleur que les marques distinctives de leurs grades. L’uniforme des vétérinaires militaires matérialise l’ascension des vétérinaires dans la hiérarchie militaire, du grade de maréchal des logis jusqu’au grade d’officier général atteint en 1913 avec la création d’un poste de vétérinaire inspecteur. Cette première partie couvre la période allant de 1769 à 1843.

Aperçu de la pathologie du cheval en Bretagne au XVIIIe siècle
Authors: Leroux Bleuenn
Published: January 2025

« J’ai escrit sur le champ […] au marechal de logis qui commande ma trouppe […] d’estre prompt a faire tout ce qu’il faut pour prevenir les suittes facheuses de ce mal horrible » . Le cheval, par son utilité au travail, au transport et à la guerre est le centre d’intérêt des usagers privés comme de l’État. C’est à l’époque moderne qu’on commence à l’entourer de soins, tant par le contrôle de l’élevage via la création des Haras royaux, que par la formation de vétérinaires dans les écoles royales subventionnées. Animal omniprésent et indispensable, il demeure fragile et l’on connaît encore mal ses affections comme leurs remèdes. Toutefois, on s’emploie avec beaucoup d’énergie à les observer, les décrire et essayer de les guérir. Voici donc un aperçu de la pathologie du cheval breton au XVIIIe siècle, qu’il s’agisse d’accidents du pied, des ceux causés par le travail, ou de maladies contagieuses voire épizootiques ou mortelles.
Veto Glandox, un produit vétérinaire des établissements Petit-Montgobert
Authors: Berger Olivier
Published: January 2025

Durant l’entre-deux-guerres, des préoccupations zootechniques, issues des recherches en agronomie impulsées par les médecins vétérinaires, poussent des entreprises à produire des aliments ou compléments alimentaires pour animaux, à mi-chemin entre le fortifiant et le médicament. Leur but est d’aider les éleveurs à renforcer la santé de leurs bêtes, dans une logique productiviste. Des documents publicitaires illustrés vraisemblablement par Benjamin Rabier, portant le nom d’un produit, le Veto Glandox, ont permis de remonter à la source d’une telle préparation scientifique, et d’en faire une analyse historique.

Gilles Douté (1750-1813). Le premier vétérinaire de Touraine
Authors: Rycke Jean de
Published: January 2025

Gilles Douté (1750-1813) était le fils d'un maréchal-ferrant de Saint-Christophe-sur-le-Nais, village du nord de la Touraine. À l'âge de 15 ans, il fut choisi par l'intendant de Tours pour être formé à la profession de vétérinaire à Lyon, dans l'École Royale fondée en 1761 par Claude Bourgelat. Muni du Brevet du roi, il s'établit à Tours en 1772, devenant ainsi le premier artiste-vétérinaire de Touraine. Les étapes de sa vie étudiante, son établissement à Tours et ses missions professionnelles au service de l’intendance ont pu être reconstitués grâce aux nombreuses pièces originales des archives départementales de l'Indre-et-Loire, des archives municipales de Tours et de celles de la Société d’Agriculture, Arts et Sciences de la Sarthe. Cette étude biographique contribue à connaître comment les premiers vétérinaires français étaient recrutés et formés, et dans quelles conditions ils exerçaient leurs missions sanitaires au service des intendants.
Évolution de l’enseignement des maladies contagieuses animales et de leur règlementation dans les écoles nationales vétérinaires au XXe siècle
Authors: Toma Bernard , Ganière Jean-Pierre , Dufour Barbara , Bénet Jean-jacques
Published: January 2025

L’enseignement des Maladies contagieuses animales et de leur réglementation a évolué dans les Écoles vétérinaires françaises au cours du XXe siècle, tout particulièrement pendant les trois dernières décennies. Cet article évoque le cadre pédagogique de cet enseignement ainsi que ses acteurs, avant de détailler le développement de la production de polycopiés à partir des années 1970, indépendamment par chaque École au cours d’une première période, puis de manière concertée entre elles pendant les dernières décennies. Cette disponibilité, répondant à une modification souhaitée de la démarche pédagogique, a permis le développement d’un enseignement interactif en travaux dirigés, en remplacement d’une partie importante des cours magistraux utilisés, seuls, pendant longtemps. L’évolution se poursuit au XXIe siècle et recourt davantage aux facilités apportées par l’outil informatique.
Les monnaies ptolémaïques en bronze dans le nord du Péloponnèse et en Illyrie du Nord au IIe siècle av. J.-C. : essai d’interprétation de la circulation monétaire des bronzes lagides
Authors: Rodriguez Philippe
Published: January 2025

The Ptolemaic bronze coinage of the 2 nd century BC has recently been re-studied. The newly attributed dates to the series allow us to shed new light on the Corinth 1948 hoard and to compare it with other contemporary or later hoards. The study of the Lagid bronze coins found in Peloponnesian and Illyrian second-century hoards suggests that Lagid coins circulated in two areas : one in the Western Mediterranean area where the coins struck by the Cyrenean workshop can be found, and the other where the coins struck by the Alexandrian and Cypriot workshops circulated. The Illyri-an hoards show that these two coinages were brought together by the Roman armies.
La production de faux liards en Italie du Nord entre 1578 et 1587
Authors: Gianazza Luca
Published: January 2025

Between 1578 and 1587 the Italian mints of Casale Monferrato, Castiglione delle Stiviere, Desana, Frinco and Passerano issued large quantities of counterfeit French liards. The article examines the reasons behind this production, how it developed and how it ended. The phenomenon is reconnected to the imbalances introduced in the Kingdom of France following the monetary reform of 1577, which had led to an overvaluation of the liard of 3 deniers tournois compared to its content of pure silver. In such a context, some trader-speculators saw an opportunity to make a profit and turned to some Italian mints located near the French territories where the production and circulation of liards was greater to commission the production of counterfeits.
Simultaneous Measurement of Calciprotein Particles with Different Assays and Clinical Outcomes in CKD
Authors: Tiong Mark K. , Holt Stephen G. , Ford Martin L. , Smith Edward R.
Published: January 2025

Background:

Mineral metabolism abnormalities are an almost universal feature of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and are thought to contribute to the development of many adverse events. Calciprotein particles (CPP) form spontaneously in biological fluids from calcium and phosphate together with the glycoprotein fetuin-A. While CPP formation is a part of normal mineral homeostasis, levels are chronically elevated in CKD. Several assays have been developed to measure serum CPP, each linking high CPP levels to adverse clinical outcomes in CKD. However, direct comparisons among these assays are lacking. This exploratory study aims to compare these assays to assess their association with CKD progression and mortality.

Methods:

We measured baseline CPP levels using various methods on stored serum samples from 189 participants in a prospective observational cohort study of CKD stage 3/4 patients. Three assays were used to measure CPP: (1) ELISA (Fetuin-A CPP), (2) low-density (L-CPP) and high-density CPP (H-CPP) via gel filtration, and (3) primary (CPP-I) and secondary CPP (CPP-II) via flow cytometry. We examined the association of each CPP measure with all-cause mortality and CKD progression using unadjusted and covariate-adjusted Cox proportional hazard regression models.

Results:

In fully adjusted models, H-CPP (hazard ratio [HR] 1.53, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.05 – 2.23, p=0.028) and CPP-II (HR 3.11, 95% CI 1.97 – 4.98, p<0.001) were significantly associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality. Additionally, L-CPP (HR 1.91, 95% CI 1.43 – 2.62, p<0.001), CPP-I (HR 1.31, 95% CI 1.04 – 1.65, p=0.023), and CPP-II (HR 1.66, 95% CI 1.20 – 2.29, p=0.002) were significantly associated with CKD progression.

Conclusions:

In a cohort of individuals with CKD stages 3 and 4, serum CPP-II levels demonstrated the strongest association with all-cause mortality, while L-CPP levels showed the strongest association with CKD progression.
Impact of Dialysis Modality on Mortality and Complications in Cardiovascular Surgery
Authors: Shah Ankur , El Shamy Osama , Raker Christina A. , Perl Jeffrey , Hu Susie
Published: January 2025

Background:

Patients receiving maintenance dialysis face high mortality and complication rates following cardiovascular (CV) surgery. With the growing utilization of peritoneal dialysis (PD), it is important to understand the impact of modality (PD vs. center-based hemodialysis [HD]) on outcomes following CV surgery.

Methods:

This retrospective cohort study used data from the National Inpatient Sample (2016-2020) to compare outcomes of PD and HD patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting and surgical valve procedures. Multivariable logistic regression, negative binomial regression, and linear regression models were used, adjusting for demographic factors, comorbidities, and hospital characteristics. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality, and secondary outcomes included prolonged ventilation, length of stay, and hospital charges.

Results:

A total of 30,155 patients were included in the study, with 28,015 (92.9%) receiving HD and 2,140 (7.1%) receiving PD. Compared to HD, PD was associated with lower in-hospital mortality (OR 0.61, 95% CI 0.38-0.97), reduced prolonged ventilation (OR 0.51, 95% CI 0.32-0.81), shorter length of stay (IRR 0.85, 95% CI 0.80-0.91), and decreased hospital charges (mean difference -$87,172 USD, 95% CI -$113,523 to -$60,820) compared to HD. Among PD patients, post-operative transition to HD was associated with worse outcomes.

Conclusions:

Maintaining PD during the perioperative period may confer benefits over HD, including lower hospital charges and improved patient outcomes. Careful consideration of dialysis modality in the management of CV surgery patients is needed to optimize clinical outcomes and reduce healthcare costs.
Typification of Aristolochia saccata and Nomenclatural Notes for A. dilatata (Aristolochiaceae)
Authors: Ohi-Toma Tetsuo , Murata Jin , Tanaka Nobuyuki
Published: January 2025

A specimen collected from Nepal in 1821 by Wallich (2707.B in the Wallich Catalogue), stored at the Herbarium of the Royal Botanic Gardens Kew (K), is designated here as the lectotype of Aristolochia saccata Wall. In addition, the nomenclature for A. saccata var. dilatata Hook. f., A. dilatata N. E. Br., and Isotrema dilatatum (N. E. Br.) X. X. Zhu, S. Liao & J. S. Ma is considered. Since the name A. dilatata is based on A. saccata var. dilatata Hook. f., it is regarded that I. dilatatum was validly published as a new combination based on A. saccata var. dilatata Hook. f., and the correct author citation is “(Hook. f.) X. X. Zhu, S. Liao & J. S. Ma.”

Published: January 2025

Objective : This study aimed to analyze the relationship between perceptions of economic polarization and personal life satisfaction among the elderly in Korea. By examining the effects of economic polarization perceptions on overall life satisfaction, work-life balance, and satisfaction with specific aspects of life, this research seeks to provide foundational insights for developing elderly welfare policies.
Methods : This study conducted a descriptive, cross-sectional secondary analysis using raw data from the 2022 Korean Consciousness and Values Survey provided by the Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism. A sample of 642 elderly individuals aged 65 and older was analyzed through descriptive statistics and analysis of independent t-test to examine differences in satisfaction based on perceptions of economic polarization, with statistical significance set at p > .05.
Results : Elderly individuals with heightened perceptions of economic polarization reported lower satisfaction with income/assets and cultural/leisure activities. However, no significant differences were found in overall life satisfaction or future happiness expectations.
Conclusion : This study empirically analyzed the impact of economic polarization perceptions on the quality of life among the elderly, highlighting the need for a tailored approach to address these perceptions in elderly welfare policy development. Future research is recommended to explore customized welfare policies and support strategies to mitigate such perceptions.

Authors:   Society of Occupational Therapy for the Aged and Dementia, Lee Hye-Jin , Kim Si-Eun
Published: January 2025

Objective : Occupational therapists are professionals who provide practical education to guardians or caregivers to help patients become independent, but research on this is lacking and studies on applying interventions are insufficient. By presenting the effectiveness of an occupation-based Care rehabilitation education program, we aim to provide a foundation for occupational therapy interventions that can be provided by domestic occupational therapists.
Methods : This study was conducted for 8 months from February to October 2024, and the subjects were 4 family caregivers who were caring for their family members in Busan, Yangsan, and Gimhae. The experiment was conducted in an ABAB reversal design and was conducted over a total of 32 sessions.
Results : As a result of confirming the baseline and intervention lines for the care experience satisfaction scale, caregiver satisfaction scale, caregiver burden scale, and stress coping strategies for all subjects, it was confirmed that the intervention was effective for subjects who completed the occupation-based caregiving rehabilitation education program.
Conclusion : The occupation-based caregiving rehabilitation education program is expected to be an effective occupational therapy intervention for the psychological factors of caregiving and support in family caregivers who care for their families, and will be a very helpful program in promoting the physical and mental stability of caregivers.
