A PRELIMINARY TRIAL ON THE SPRING GRAZING OF LUCERNE
Authors: Douglas J.A. , Wilkinson R.C.
Published: July 2020

In a trial at Wairakei Research Station, the effect of three spring grazing managements on subsequent summer and early autumn hay production of lucerne was assessed relative to hay management over the entire period. Overall the two rotational grazing treatments where the lucerne was grazed at an immature stage of growth (grazed at 12 to 15 cm, and at 25 to 30 cm) reduced subsequent production in two hay cuts by 20% and IS%, respectively. A rapid rotation of 4 days at a stocking rate of 30 hoggets/ha where the stocking rate was in harmony with the lucerne growth had an unexpectedly small effect on subsequent lucerne production. The intermittent grazing treatments allowed greater weed ingress than the rapid rotational or hayed treatments. Spring production was reduced, compared with hay production, by 58% by the two intermittent grazing treatments and while no permanent harm was done to the lucerne stands these systems cannot be recommended because of tht: large losses. Where it is necessary to graze the early spring growth of lucerne, the rapid rotational system at a light rate appears to be a suitable method but this should be changed to rotational grazing of mature lucerne as soon as possible, because of the assumed lower production under the former system.
TACTICAL APPLICATION OF FERTILIZER NITROGEN TO OFFSET A SEASONAL FEED SHORTAGE ON A HEAVILY STOCKED SHEEP FARM IN SOUTHERN HAWKE'S BAY
Authors: Ball Roger , Inglis J.A.H. , Mauger J.H.
Published: July 2020

An experiment was conducted within the confines of a practical farming situation. Two treatments were compared: "Control", where the normal stocking rate was imposed without fertilizer nitrogen, and "Nitrogen", where a single dressing of urea was combined with a 10% increase in the normal stocking rate. Urea was applied when ewes were set-stocked for lambing, in late winter 1970. Pasture production and animal liveweights were recorded over the ensuing three to four months. Measurements under cage exclosures in the grazed paddocks indicated an overall yield response of 1 820 kg DM/ha (+36%) to the single dressing of 58 kg N/ha. A greater response was recorded from grasses other than ryegrass, than from ryegrass, which constituted 50% of control yield. The N effect declined with time. Responses occurred irrespective of aspect or slope. Similar measurements under cages, where herbage was repeatedly cut and discarded, indicated a smaller response and failed to show residual effects of N. Ewe liveweights showed a greater increase in the Nitrogen group, and lamb liveweights were almost identical between treatments. These results indicate that urea application stimulated pasture growth sufftciently to more than meet the requirements of the additional stock
A CHEMICAL BASIS FOR PLANT RESISTANCE TO GRASS GRUB AND BLACK BEETLE LARVAE (COLEOPTERA : SCARABAEIDAE)
Authors: Sutherland O.R.W.
Published: July 2020

Crude extracts of root of the resistant pasture plants lucerne (Medicago sativa) and Lotus pedunculatus contain strong feeding deterrents for third instar Costelytra zealandica and Heteronychus arutor larvae. Purified saponins isolated from active crude lucerne root extract markedly reduce grass grub feeding and have an ED of 0.019%. Black beetle larvae are even more sensitive to the material. Separate and chemically distinct feeding deterrent fractions, active against the two insects, have been isolated from Lotus pedunculatus root. The role of feeding deterrents in mediating the non-preference of these insect pests for lucerne and Lotus is discussed.

THE INFLUENCE OF ASPECT ON PASTURE ENVIRONMENT
Authors: Lambert M.G.
Published: July 2020

Large differences in climatic, edaphic, and biotic variables were recorded among four aspects of a hill in the Southern Ruahine range over a twelve-month period. Productivity of the existing sward appeared to be strongly influenced by available soil nitrogen levels, and soil moisture status during the summer/autumn months. Pasture botanical composition was related to both these factors and also to soil available phosphate status. Some practical implications of the differences recorded are discussed with reference to farm subdivision, seeds mixtures and feriiiizer requirements.

Araştırmada, Kafkas Dağları’nı konu alan uluslararası çalışmalar bibliyometrik olarak incelenmiştir. Burada amaç, Kafkas Dağları çalışmalarında lider aktörler ve yeni kavramlar ele alınarak yeni araştırmalara bir yol göstermektir. Araştırmada şu temel soruya yanıt aranmıştır: Kafkas Dağları konusundaki literatürünün mevcut gelişimi nasıldır ve gelecekte nereye evirilecektir? Tali sorular ise; Kafkas Dağları konusundaki, temel kavramlar ve yeni temalar nelerdir, hangi ülkeler ilgilenmektedir, atıf odakları hangi yazarlardır, yeni iş birliği odakları nerelerdedir ve disipliner dağılışı nedir? Araştırma soruların yanıtlanabilmesi için bibliyometrik ağ analizi tekniği kullanılmıştır. Sonuçlarına göre yayın sayısı bakımından en önemli ülkeler ABD, Rusya ve Gürcistan’dır. Yayınların alansal dağılışı incelendiğinde 327 eserden 251’i doğa bilimleri ve mühendislik alanlarında olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Dolayısıyla Kafkas Dağları araştırmalarında sosyal bilimler yetersizdir. Kafkas Dağları’nın bölge ülkelerinde ortak bir mekânsal birimi olmasına rağmen analizlere göre iş birliği düzeyi düşüktür. Bu sonuçlarla Kafkas Dağları’nın kalkınması için multi-disipliner bir bilim anlayışının ve birlikte yönetim mekanizmalarının önemi bir kez daha düşünülmelidir.

A szerzők célja a fogászati kezelések során előforduló idegen test aspiratiók, illetve ingestiók veszélyeire, azok elkerülésére,a bekövetkezett esemény szövődményeire és megoldási lehetőségeire felhívni a figyelmet.72 éves férfibeteg kezelés közben egy endodontiai eszközt (36 mm hosszú (teljes hossz) K-tágító) aspirált. A fogorvosgastroenterológiai konziliumot kért, majd miután mellkas-röntgenfelvétel alapján kiderült, hogy aspiratióról van szó,a beteg a bronchologiai ambulancián jelentkezett. A beteget félig ülő helyzetben elhelyezve a pulmonológus excisorraltöbbször megpróbálta megragadni a tárgyat, de az rendszerint kicsúszott a műszer pofái közül, majd a jobb tüdő 9-essegmentumának subsegmentjébe került, ekkor eltűnt szem elől és csaknem a rekeszfelszínig vándorolt. Mellkassebészés fogorvos kollégával történt konzílium alapján a magas infectiós és perforatiós kockázat miatt megoldásként másnaprajobb alsó lobectomia jött szóba. A kontroll bronchoscopia során azonban a pulmonológus Trendelenburg helyzetbenismételten átvizsgálta a jobb basalis szájadékokat és sikerült megragadnia a tű műanyag végét, majd azt az excisorraleltávolítania. A beteg ezután lege artis Clindamycin terápiában részesült.A kezelő fogorvos részéről fontos, hogy ilyenkor a következőleg beavatkozó orvosi csapat kezébe kerüljön a fogászatianamnézis, a baleset leírása, és szerencsés, ha az aspirált vagy lenyelt tárgyhoz hasonlót tudunk bemutatni ahelyes stratégia meghatározása, a súlyos szövődmények elkerülése érdekében. A fogászati kezelés során a rutin eljárásrészeként kell szerepelnie a műtéti terület gondos izolálásának, ami alkalmas lehet az aspiratio, illetve az ingestiomegelőzésére. Ezt szolgálja a kofferdam megfelelő alkalmazása, ami a legtöbb esetben egyszerű, gyorsan és könnyenkivitelezhető művelet.
A depresszió és a szorongás, valamint a temporomandibularis diszfunkció feltételezett összefüggésének vizsgálata

Published: July 2020

Az egyetemi hallgatókat tanulmányaik során különböző pszichés stresszhatások érik, ezek vizsgaidőszakban fokozódhatnak, és hatásukra egyeseknél szorongásos és depressziós tünetek jelentkezhetnek. A temporomandibularis diszfunkció kialakulásában a beteg pszichés állapota mint etiológiai tényező gyakran kerül említésre a szakirodalomban, de az összefüggés jellege nem pontosan tisztázott. Kutatásunkban azt vizsgáltuk, hogy a vizsgaidőszakban megjelennek-e szorongásos vagy depressziós tünetek, illetve változik-e a fogorvostan-hallgatók tüneteinek mértéke, valaminta temporomandibularis diszfunkció tüneteinek és egyes orális parafunkcióknak a gyakorisága, és összefüggést kerestünk az egyes tényezők között. Kérdőíves adatgyűjtést végeztünk két időpontban: egyszer a szorgalmi-, és egyszera vizsgaidőszakban. A kérdőíveket a Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (DC/TMD) magyar változatából vettük. Összehasonlítottuk a temporomandibularis diszfunkció tüneteinek gyakoriságát, a szorongás és a depresszió mértékét, valamint az arcfájdalom intenzitásának különbségét a két időpontban. Eredményeink az mutatták, hogy a hallgatók szorongásos és depressziós tünetei szignifikánsan magasabb szintet értek el vizsgaidőszakban, mint szorgalmi időszakban. A temporomandibularis diszfunkció valamennyi vizsgált tünete szintén nagyobb gyakorisággal fordult elő vizsgaidőszakban. Ekkor a tünetek közül a fájdalom több mint kétszer annyi hallgatónál volt jelen, mint szorgalmi időszakban. A fájdalom intenzitása is szignifikánsan magasabb volt vizsgaidőszakban. A vizsgált orális parafunkciók mértékében is jelentős emelkedést találtunk. Eredményeink alapján feltételezhető, hogy vizsgaidőszakban a hallgatók fokozott stressz-szintje növeli a szorongásos és depressziós tünetek mértékét és ez egybeesik a temporomandibularis tüneteik nagyobb arányú és mértékű előfordulásával. A kettő közötti kapcsolat nem bizonyítható, de elképzelhető, hogy az emel-kedett stressz-szint is hozzájárul a temporomandibularis diszfunkció tüneteinek megjelenéséhez vagy fokozódásához.

Published: July 2020

DNA barcoding has been used for species identification of fishes, especially for fish product authentication. In tuna fish food products authentication, DNA barcoding is needed due to its requirement of small amount of samples for species identification. The COI gene, located in mitochondria of animal cells, is established as standard marker for animal DNA barcoding. This research aimed to study the variation in COI gene of tuna fish species in three groups, such as Bluefin tuna (five species), Yellowfin tuna (three species), and other tuna species (five species). The variation comparison showed that this gene can differentiate 11 out of 13 tuna species. The Thunnus orientalis and T. thynnus has 100% similarity over COI gene (identical). Therefore, another marker gene is required to differentiate this two species. Variation in COI gene has the ability to differentiate all species in the genus Thunnus with other genus (Auxis, Euthynnus, and Katsuwonus) by 29 nucleotide sites. Bluefin tuna group has one site unique to two other groups. Yellowfin tuna group did not have site for differentiation. Other tuna species has 33 nucleotide sites for differentiation with two other groups.

The advent of next-generation sequencing has facilitated large-scale discovery and mapping of genomic variants for high-throughput genotyping. Several research groups working in tree species are presently employing next generation sequencing (NGS) platforms for marker discovery, since it is a cost effective and time saving strategy.
However, most trees lack a chromosome level genome map and validation of variants for downstream application becomes obligatory. The cost associated with identifying potential variants from the enormous amount of sequence data is a major limitation. In the present study, high resolution melting (HRM) analysis was optimized for rapid validation of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), insertions or deletions (InDels)
and simple sequence repeats (SSRs) predicted from exome sequencing of parents and hybrids of Eucalyptus tereticornis Sm. ? Eucalyptus grandis Hill ex Maiden generated from controlled hybridization. The cost per data point was less than 0.5 USD, providing great flexibility in terms of cost and sensitivity, when compared to other validation methods. The sensitivity of this technology in variant detection can be extended to other applications including Bar-HRM for species authentication and TILLING for detection of mutants.

Published: July 2020

Background: Oncoplastic surgery (ops) is becoming the new standard of care for breast-conserving surgery, leading to some challenges with adjuvant radiation, particularly when accurate tumour bed (tbd) delineation is needed for focused radiation (that is, accelerated partial breast irradiation or boost radiation). Currently, no guidelines have been published concerning tbd localization for adjuvant targeted radiation after ops. Methods: A modified Delphi method was used to establish consensus by a panel of 20 experts in surgical and radiation oncology at the Canadian Locally Advanced Breast Cancer National Consensus Group and in a subsequent online member survey. Results: These are the main recommendations: (1) Surgical clips are necessary and should, at a minimum, be placed along the 4 side walls of the cavity, plus 1–4 clips at the posterior margin if necessary. (2) Operative reports should include pertinent information to help guide the radiation oncologists. (3) Breast surgeons and radiation oncologists should have a basic understanding of ops techniques and work on “speaking a common language.” (4) Careful consideration is needed when determining the value of targeted radiation, such as boost, in higher-level ops procedures with extensive tissue rearrangement. Conclusions: The panel developed a total of 6 recommendations on tbd delineation for more focused radiation therapy after ops, with more than 80% agreement on each statement. All are summarized, together with the corresponding evidence or expert opinion.

Background: Gastric stump (“remnant”) cancer is the development of a malignancy related to previous gastric surgery. Prognosis in gastric stump cancer, compared with that in primary gastric cancer, is still controversial. Methods: From January 1988 to December 2012 at a single medical centre in Taiwan, 105 patients with gastric stump cancer, including 85 with previous peptic ulcer disease and 20 with previous gastric cancer, were analyzed for clinicopathologic characteristics and overall survival (os). Results: The 5-year os rates for patients with gastric stump cancer and with primary gastric cancer were 51.2% and 54.5% respectively (p = 0.035). Analysis of clinicopathologic characteristics indicated that, compared with patients having primary gastric cancer, those with gastric stump cancer had more lymph node metastasis (p < 0.001) and had been diagnosed at a more advanced stage (p = 0.047). Multivariate analysis with os as an endpoint showed that age [p = 0.015; hazard ratio (hr): 2.300; 95% confidence interval (ci): 1.173 to 4.509], tumour size (p = 0.037; hr: 1.700; 95% ci: 1.031 to 2.801), stromal reaction (p = 0.021; hr: 1.802; 95% ci: 1.094 to 2.969), and pathologic N category (p = 0.001; hr: 1.449; 95% ci: 1.161 to 1.807) were independent predictors in gastric stump cancer. The os rates for patients with gastric stump cancer who previously had gastric cancer or peptic ulcer disease were 72.9% and 50.0% respectively (p = 0.019). The Borrmann classification was more superficial (p = 0.005), lymph node metastases were fewer (p = 0.004), and staging was less advanced (p = 0.025) in patients with gastric stump cancer who previously had gastric cancer than in their counterparts who previously had peptic ulcer disease. Conclusions: Survival is poorer in patients with gastric stump cancer who previously had peptic ulcer disease than in those who previously had primary gastric cancer. Patients with gastric stump cancer who previously had gastric cancer and could receive curative gastrectomy tended to have a better prognosis because of a more superficial Borrmann classification. Regular follow-up in patients who have undergone gastric surgery is recommended for the early detection of gastric stump cancer.

Published: July 2020

Background: The steady decline in breast cancer (bca) mortality has come at the cost of increasingly toxic and expensive adjuvant therapies. Trials evaluating the addition of 2 or 3 years of cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (cdk4/6) inhibitors to adjuvant endocrine therapy (et) are ongoing, but the willingness of patients to take such additional therapy is unknown. Methods: We surveyed 100 consecutive postmenopausal women with nonmetastatic estrogen receptor–positive bca who had initiated adjuvant et within the preceding 2 years. Participants were asked about perceived recurrence risk, bca worry, and overall health. They were then asked about their willingness to accept 2 years of treatment with an additional oral drug that would reduce recurrence by 40% for a range of baseline recurrence risks in 2 hypothetical scenarios. Results: Mean age of the 99 evaluable participants was 61.7 years. In the scenario with no drug toxicity, 85% of respondents were likely to accept the new drug for a reduction in recurrence to 30% from 50%, but only 49% would take the drug if risk was reduced to 3% from 5%. In a scenario with drug-induced fatigue, the corresponding drug acceptance rates were 55% and 39% respectively. For the second scenario, bca worry was correlated with increased willingness to take the drug, even for only a 2% absolute reduction in recurrence risk. Conclusions: The willingness of patients with estrogen receptor–positive bca to take an adjuvant cdk4/6 inhibitor will greatly depend on the expected benefit and toxicities described to them as well as on worry about bca recurrence.

Objective: The purpose of this guideline is to provide guidance on appropriate management of satellite and in-transit metastasis (itm) from melanoma. Methods: The guideline was developed by the Program in Evidence-Based Care (pebc) of Ontario Health (Cancer Care Ontario) and the Melanoma Disease Site Group. Recommendations were drafted by a Working Group based on a systematic review of publications in the medline and embase databases. The document underwent patient- and caregiver-specific consultation and was circulated to the Melanoma Disease Site Group and the pebc Report Approval Panel for internal review; the revised document underwent external review. Recommendations: “Minimal itm” is defined as lesions in a location with limited spread (generally 1–4 lesions); the lesions are generally superficial, often clustered together, and surgically resectable. “Moderate itm” is defined as more than 5 lesions covering a wider area, or the rapid development (within weeks) of new in-transit lesions. “Maximal itm” is defined as large-volume disease with multiple (>15–20) 2–3 cm nodules or subcutaneous or deeper lesions over a wide area. (1) In patients presenting with minimal itm, complete surgical excision with negative pathologic margins is recommended. In addition to complete surgical resection, adjuvant treatment may be considered. (2) In patients presenting with moderate unresectable itm, consider using this approach for localized treatment: intralesional interleukin 2 or talimogene laherparepvec as 1st choice, topical diphenylcyclopropenone as 2nd choice, or radiation therapy as 3rd choice. Evidence is insufficient to recommend intralesional bacille Calmette– Guérin or CO2 laser ablation outside of a research setting. (3) In patients presenting with maximal itm confined to an extremity, isolated limb perfusion, isolated limb infusion, or systemic therapy may be considered. In extremely select cases, amputation could be considered as a final option in patients without systemic disease after discussion at a multidisciplinary case conference. (4) In cases in which local, regional, or surgical treatments for itm might be ineffective or unable to be performed, or if a patient has systemic metastases at the same time, systemic therapy may be considered.

Published: July 2020

ABSTRACT

Objectives: The objective of this study is to compare the outcome of mini cholecystectomy with open conventional cholecystectomy in the management of cholelithiasis.

Study Design: This was a randomized controlled trial.

Study Period: Study was conducted in  Department Of Surgery, Teaching Hospital Dera Ghazi Khan, from June 2017 to Dec 2017 for a period of six month.

 

Patients and Methods: A total of 100 cases; 50 cases in each group was included in the study. 100 patients were admitted from OPD of Teaching Hospital Dera Ghazi Khan fulfilling inclusion criteria. Demographic information was recorded. All admitted patients were diagnosed on the basis of history, clinical examination and relevant investigations. Written consent was obtained. Data entry and analysis

was done by using SPSS 11. Data was analyzed according to the proposed analysis plan.

 

Results: Mean age of all patients was 39.96±3.84 years. Age range of patients was 30-48 years. In Group-A mean hospital stay was 5.38±1.15 and in Group-B mean hospital stay was 3.02±0.58 days respectively. At 1st visit 14(28%) patients in Group-B and only 1(2%) patient in Group-A had wound infection. According to p-value wound infection was significantly associated with treatment group. Patients in Group-A had less infection rate as compared to Group-B patients. i.e. (p-value=0.000) Whereas at 2nd visit 8(16%) patients in Group-B and 3 patients in Group-A suffered from wound infection. At 2nd visit wound infection was statistically same in both treatment groups. i.e. (p-value=0.110). It was observed that in Group-B only 44(88%) of the patients had severe pain whereas only 12(24%) of the patients in Group-A had severe pain. Keeping in mind this results rate of severe pain at 12th hour was high in Group-B patients as compared to Group-A patients. i.e. (p-value=0.000).

 

Conclusion:  Mini cholecystectomy is effective and associated with less patients discomfort in terms of post operative pain and infection as well as with less hospital stay.
