ABSTRACT Cactus pear is an alternative for animal feed in the semiarid region, and its productive characteristics can be improved with little irrigation. The objective of this work was to assess the agronomical performance and water use efficiency (WUE) of two cactus pear cultivars subjected to different irrigation water depths and define the best material genetic material for irrigated conditions in the semiarid region of the state of Minas Gerais (MG), Brazil. The experiment was conducted in Montalvânia, MG, during one year (2017-2018) using six treatments consisting of irrigation water depths based on the reference evapotranspiration (ET0) (without irrigation, 15%, 30%, 45%, 60%, and 75% ET0) and two genetic materials (Opuntia ficus-indica Mill. cv. Gigante, and Nopalea cochenillifera Salm-Dyck cv. Miúda). A randomized block design was used, in a with split-plot arrangement consisting of irrigation treatments in the plots and genetic materials in the subplots, with four replications. Growth evaluations were carried out from the third month after planting to the end of the growing cycle. Production variables and WUE were evaluated at the harvest. The irrigation water depths affected the growth variables, significantly (p<0.05). The water depths of 40% to 50% ET0 provided higher fresh and dry matter yields; the cultivar Miúda showed better performance than the Gigante. The WUE was affected by the irrigation water depths; the cultivar Miúda was the best option for the crop.

ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of the harvest maturity stages on the physical, chemical and sensorial quality of the pineapple genotype FRF 632. The fruits were harvested in the maturity stages “green-ripe”, “spotted”, “colored” and “yellow” and evaluated regarding fruit and flesh mass; flesh yield; fruit and crown length; diameter of the basal, middle and top fruit sections; flesh color; titratable acididy (TA); translucency; soluble solids (SS); SS/TA ratio; and sensory acceptance of the attributes color, aroma, flavor, texture/firmness, overall acceptance and intensities of the attributes sweetness, acidity and firmness, using the just about right scale. There was no difference for the majority of the physical traits of the fruits at the various harvest maturity stages. The fruits had average mass of about 1,100 g. There was a gradual increase in the content of soluble solids and the SS/TA ratio during ripening. The fruits collected at the “colored” and “yellow” stages had the highest approval percentages and were considered to have ideal sweetness and acidity by the majority of consumers in sensorial tests. However, the preference mapping revealed a greater preference for fruits harvested in the “spotted” and “colored” stages for all the attributes assessed, unlike what was observed in the test of average and approval percentage. Therefore, the physical, chemical and sensorial tests indicate that the fruits harvested in the “colored” maturity stage were most preferred by consumers, since they had high approval percentage, as well as ideal sweetness and acidity.
Do Mestre Ignorante ao Iniciador: forma escolar e emancipação intelectual
Authors: Carvalho José Sérgio Fonseca de
Published: June 2020

Resumo: Ao narrar a aventura intelectual de Joseph Jacotot, Rancière escova a história a contrapelo - na bela metáfora benjaminiana -, fazendo ressoar uma voz até então condenada ao esquecimento. Este artigo expõe as formas pelas quais Jacotot opõe o mestre embrutecedor ao mestre emancipador, que verifica no presente a igual capacidade de todos e de cada um para compreender as obras da inteligência humana. Em face dessa dicotomia proponho uma imagem intermediária: a de um mestre iniciador, para quem um processo educativo comprometido com o princípio da igualdade clama tanto pela emancipação intelectual quanto pela transmissão intergeracional de um legado de experiências simbólicas que confere durabilidade a um mundo comum de realizações históricas.

Constelações Transnacionais de Cuidado e Educação: laços de crianças i/migrantes com famílias transfronteiras
Authors: Oliveira Gabrielle
Published: June 2020

Resumo: Muitas vezes os pesquisadores educacionais se interessam pelas diferenças linguístico-culturais que os estudantes imigrantes trazem à escola, negligenciando a proeminência da cidadania legal e cultural para a formação da identidade e a participação em sala de aula. Além disso, em geral rotulam as crianças (i)migrantes como estudantes e aprendizes de língua inglesa ou, (mais raramente) bilíngues emergentes. Esta rotulação estreita dificulta evidenciar determinados aspectos das complexas vivências dos estudantes, com implicações importantes para a aprendizagem. Este artigo destaca evidências antropológicas para apresentar maneiras mais holísticas de representar e discutir as vivências de famílias imigrantes em um mundo globalizado. Este artigo questiona: como uma perspectiva antropológica sobre famílias transnacionais pode nos ajudar a compreender como a imigração modela a vida educacional das crianças? Assim, abordo como as constelações transnacionais de cuidado como abordagem metodológica contribuem para discussões continuadas sobre equidade e pertencimento em estudos no campo educacional.
Transcendendo Disjunções Cívicas: organização de jovens transnacionais em um espaço educacional comunitário
Authors: Borns Ariel
Published: June 2020

Resumo: As recentes políticas migratórias nacionais - separação de famílias migrantes na fronteira entre Estados Unidos e México, aumento no número de prisões e remoções pelo Serviço de Imigração e Controle Alfandegário dos Estados Unidos, e o banimento de viagem de muçulmanxs - levantam questões de discriminação com base em raça, etnia e religião. Este artigo examina como, durante épocas de tensão e conflito racial, imigrantxs latinxs e refugiados muçulmanos que são membros de uma organização de imigrantes jovens desafiam narrativas baseadas em déficit por meio de uma ação coletiva em um espaço educacional comunitário. Defendo que um espaço educacional comunitário (EEC) em uma grande cidade do meio-oeste dos Estados Unidos proporciona um espaço único para que a juventude imigrante transnacional construa coalizões pan-étnicas transformadoras de maneiras que abordem a disjunção cívica - o conflito entre as realidades cotidianas dos jovens e os ideais cívicos democráticos adotados por currículos e funcionários de escola - e as mensagens concorrentes de escolas, comunidades e conflitos nacionais e globais dos estudantes.
Transgeneridades em Performance: desobediências de gênero e anticolonialidades das artes cênicas
Authors: Leal Dodi , Rosa André
Published: June 2020

Resumo: O artigo apresenta os dispositivos cênicos da performatividade transgênera em face aos percursos práticos e teóricos de ruptura anticolonial das normas do corpo. Interroga-se aqui a medida em que as desobediências de gênero são fator imprescindível na luta contra o projeto de poder colonial, destacando como o eurocentrismo e a branquitude estão amalgamados aos preceitos da cisgeneridade compulsória como política dos corpos. Trata-se aqui de duas performances: Tetagrafias e Tran(S)arau (Coimbra/Portugal, 2015 a 2017). Assim sendo, evidenciam-se os aspectos coercitivos da cisnormatividade como concepção hegemônica e colonial de corporeidade em cena e no cotidiano.
Lo Escénico como Negatividad Subversiva: ajenidad radical y performance trava sudaca en la voz de Susy Shock
Authors: Martínez Ariel , Mora Ana Sabrina
Published: June 2020

Resumen: En ocasión de las performances escénicas de la artista Susy Shock y, en particular, de la presentación que mantiene en el plano de la intersección y la conjugación una serie de elementos que conforman una escena performática donde la monstruosidad pueda irrumpir, ofrecemos algunas reflexiones epistemológicas acerca de los límites de la representación identitaria frente a la presentación escénica. Sus performances poéticas incluyen canciones propias de géneros musicales del folklore nacional argentino (vidalas, coplas, tangos), mediante la apropiación de un producto cultural tradicional en voz de una trava. Esto produce la visibilización de una alteridad radical en la presentación simultánea de elementos que sólo es posible recobrar a partir de la interseccionalidad que se libra en el campo de la presentación, donde todos los elementos irrumpen en superposición al mismo tiempo y en un mismo lugar.

Published: June 2020

This paper presents research initiated with the aim of assessing the feasibility of biocementing peat fens soil, a problematic soil underlying many of the embankments of the East Anglia railway network (UK). Biocementation of soil is an emerging, novel, ground improvement technique. It has recently attracted the interest of researchers worldwide because it has been proposed as potentially environmentally superior to chemical grouts and other common soil stabilisers – for example, cement or lime (linked to high carbon dioxide emissions). In this study, the authors screened and isolated non-pathogenic indigenous ureolytic microbial candidates with potential for biocementation from samples originating from peat fens in East Anglia, UK. Four strains were selected as the most suitable candidates, based on their growth rate and their viability in a wide range of temperatures, pH and soil moisture contents corresponding to typical seasonal field conditions. After a number of unconfined compressive strength (UCS) tests, one strain (Bacillus licheniformis) was selected as the most promising for this soil treatment and used for further study. Two different methods of implementation of the treatments were considered: namely, pressure flow soil column and electrokinetic injection. The UCS results supported by calcium carbonate measurements proved that biocementation did occur for both implementation methods and for a number of treatment combinations. Ongoing work on optimisation of treatments and implementation methods is being carried out towards the upscaling of the techniques for in situ implementation, which is planned for the next stage of the research.

Published: June 2020

Research background. Fresh-cut fruits and vegetables are considered sources of antioxidant compounds. However, their shelf life is limited due to nutritional, quality and safety deterioration. Therefore, in recent decades, various methods have been reported for food processing and preservation, as well as for the determination of antioxidant compounds, due to their many benefits when consumed. The aim of the present work is to compare the performance of electrochemical and spectrophotometric methods in the analysis of the content of polyphenolic compounds and ascorbic acid in extracts from fruits (eggplant), edible roots (carrot) and leaves (rocket, lettuce and chard), and evaluate their capability to detect small changes in the antioxidant content in the eggplant extracts previously irradiated with different UV-C light intensities. Experimental approach. Polyphenolic compounds and ascorbic acid were determined by electrochemical and spectrophotometric methods. An enzymatic biosensor and a nanocomposite sensor were used for polyphenolic compounds and ascorbic acid, respectively, in electrochemical measurements, while Folin-Ciocalteu and Kampfenkel methods were used for spectrophotometric measurements. Results and conclusion. Results obtained through the different methodologies were comparable and consistent with each other. Both methods allowed determining the content of ascorbic acid and polyphenolic compounds in the fruit and vegetable extracts. Moreover, both techniques enable the detection of the analyte concentration changes in samples exposed to different UV-C intensities and storage days. Finally, it was observed that the antioxidant capacity depends on the type of food, treatment and storage period. Novelty and scientific contribution. Both methodologies were suitable for the quantification of analytes; however, the electrochemical sensors provided higher specificity and selectivity, applicable to different fruit and vegetable matrices, obtaining results with higher precision, in shorter time and with a smaller sample volume, minimizing the economic costs because of the lower consumption of reagents.
Diseños Dπ-óptimos para modelos no lineales heteroscedásticos: un estudio de robustez
Authors: Patiño-Bustamante Catalina , López-Ríos Víctor
Published: June 2020

Los diseños óptimos son utilizados para determinar las mejores condiciones donde se debe realizar un experimento para obtener ciertas propiedades estadísticas. En los modelos no lineales heteroscedásticos donde la varianza es una función de la media, el criterio de optimalidad depende de la elección de un valor local para los parámetros del modelo. Una forma de evitar esta dependencia es considerar una distribución a priori para el vector de parámetros del modelo e incorporarla en el criterio de optimalidad que se va a optimizar. En este artículo se consideran diseños D-óptimos en modelos no lineales heteroscedásticos cuando se incorpora una distribución a priori asociada a los parámetros del modelo. Se extiende el teorema de equivalencia al considerar el efecto de la distribución a priori. Se propone una metodología para la construcción de distribuciones a priori discretas y continuas. Se muestra, con un ejemplo, cómo a partir de las distribuciones construidas se pueden encontrar diseños óptimos con mayor número de puntos experimentales que los obtenidos con un valor local. La eficiencia de los diseños hallados es muy competitiva comparada con los diseños óptimos locales. Adicionalmente se consideran distribuciones a priori de una familia de escala, y se muestra que los diseños hallados son robustos a la elección de la distribución a priori elegida de esta familia.

Published: June 2020

he contamination of aquatic bodies by heavy metals is a growing environmental problem, making more critical the study and development of new technologies and materials that can be used for the removal of this type of pollutants. Thus, adsorption arises using residual materials as a sustainable alternative for the solution to this problem. In the present study, the use of plantain peels in the adsorption of Cr (VI) in a batch system is proposed, establishing the kinetics of the process at different temperature conditions, particle size and amount of adsorbent. The fit of the data was done using the theoretical models of pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order and Elovich. From the data, it is established that the pseudo-second-order and Elovich models show a better adjustment, so that the adsorption in the material occurs on two adsorption sites and that such process is related to chemical adsorption. The maximum adsorption capacity of Cr (VI) was found at a condition of 0.0306 g, 0.6775 mm and 55°C at a time of 420 min establishing the efficient use of plantain peels for the removal of the ion metallic in the studio.
Pore Structure Characteristics and Gas Storage Potential of the Cretaceous La Luna Formation, Middle Magdalena Valley Basin, Colombia
Authors: Casadiego-Quintero Efraín , Rios-Reyes Carlos Alberto
Published: June 2020

The rocks of interest in the present study (mudstones) show inherently a heterogeneous pore-size distribution in the matrix. They can present organic and inorganic pores and the transport mechanism through pores is different, and, therefore, it is necessary to describe their organic and inorganic porosity. This work uses different microscopy techniques to characterize mudstones from the Galembo Member of the Cretaceous La Luna Formation, Middle Magdalena Valley Basin, Colombia. These rocks present several pore types, including interparticle pores due to flocculation of clay minerals, organoporosity due to burial and thermal maturity, intraparticle pores from organisms, intraparticle pores within mineral grains, and microchannels and microfractures. The existence of interconnected pores in such complex fracture-pore system provides effective pathways for primary gas migration and it also provides a storage space for the residual hydrocarbon in mudstones, which is important for the primary migration and storage in gas reservoir rocks. The pore connectivity is high and increases towards the top of the sedimentary sequence.

Published: June 2020

This research studied the kinetics of the thermal degradation of lycopene in tomatoes using elevated temperature testing. Understanding the nature and the extent of sensitive nutrient degradation in tomatoes will assist in reducing postharvest nutrient losses during storage and processing. Ripe tomatoes were sorted, washed, and blinded. Juice was obtained by filtering the blinded pulp through a muslin cloth. The samples were heated using a water bath at 70, 80, 90, and 100 °C for 20,
40, 60, and 80 minutes. The determination of lycopene was done using spectrophotometric methods at 503 nm, in hexane: ethanol: acetone (2:1:1
v/v/v) lycopene extract. The concentrations of lycopene were determined
immediately after processing. The data was found to fit into first order equations. Degradation constants (k), D-value, and half-life for the thermal degradation of lycopene were determined at each processing temperature. Models were also developed for each of the chosen temperatures, which can be used to predict the degradation pattern of lycopene at other processing conditions. Z-value, Q10, and activation energy for the degradation of lycopene were also determined. Analyses showed a considerable decrease in lycopene concentration and decimal reduction time (D-value), and a significant increase in the thermal degradation rate (k) during heating from 70 to 100 °C. The finding shows that the degradation of lycopene in tomatoes followed the first order kinetics and it shows that the lycopene content decreased at 80 to 100 °C.
The effect of the substitution of acha (Digitaria exilis) and soybean on the chemical composition and sensory properties of maize masa
Authors: Malomo Adekunbi , Abiose Sumbo
Published: June 2020

Masa is a traditional food mainly produced from maize, rice, and millet. Different concentrations of acha, an underutilized cereal rich essential acid and soybean, was used to enrich masa. This study investigated the effect of the substitution of acha and soybean on the nutritional and organoleptic properties of masa
produced from maize. The proximate composition, mineral composition, and antinutrients were determined using standard methods. Sensory evaluation was also carried out to determine the acceptability of the masa
products. The result of the proximate composition showed an increase in
crude protein, crude fat, and total ash, and a decrease in crude fibre and carbohydrate content, during the period of fermentation. Moisture, crude protein, crude fat, total ash, crude fibre, and carbohydrate contents of masa ranged between 17.10 – 23.80 %, 6.86- 10.67%, 12.78- 18.78 %, 0.58-1.24 %, 0.79 – 1.07 %, and 42.95 – 61.89 %, respectively. Crude protein, total ash, and crude fat content increased with the increase in substitution with soybean. Calcium, magnesium, iron, potassium, and zinc contents were within the range of 5.79 – 13.70
mg/kg, 2.54 – 7.20 mg/kg, 1.14 – 2.65 mg/kg, 2.96 – 6.03 mg/kg, and 0.76 – 1.05 mg/kg, respectively. Masa produced from 100% acha
had the highest calcium, magnesium, and iron contents. Tannin, phytic acid, and trypsin inhibitor activity decreased during fermentation and were lowest in masa produced from 100% acha. Substitution of masa with soybean improved the colour, taste, and aroma of fried masa samples. Substitution of maize with 20% acha and 20% soybean increased the nutritional quality and overall acceptability of masa. This study therefore suggested the use of acha and soybean in the production of masa with a high nutritional and sensory profile.
The Shorter the Better? Effects of Privacy Policy Length on Online Privacy Decision-Making
Authors: Meier Yannic , Schäwel Johanna , Krämer Nicole C.
Published: June 2020

Privacy policies provide Internet users with the possibility to inform themselves about websites’ usage of their disclosed personal data. Strikingly, however, most people tend not to read privacy policies because they are long and cumbersome, indicating that people do not wish to expend much (cognitive) effort on reading such policies. The present study aimed to examine whether shorter privacy policies can be beneficial in informing users about a social networking site’s (SNS) privacy practices, and to investigate associations between variables relevant for privacy decision-making using one theory-based integrative model. In an online experiment, participants (N = 305) were asked to create a personal account on an SNS after being given the option to read the privacy policy. Privacy policy length and the SNS’s level of privacy were varied, creating a 2 (policy length) x 2 (level of privacy) between-subjects design. The results revealed that participants who saw short policies spent less time on reading but gained higher knowledge about the SNS’s privacy practices—due to the fact that they spent more reading time per word. Factual privacy policy knowledge was found to be an indicator for participants’ subjective privacy perception. The perception and evaluation of the specific SNS´s privacy level influenced the assessment of privacy costs and benefits. Particularly when benefits were perceived as high, self-disclosure was increased.
Localizing the Politics of Privacy in Communication and Media Research
Authors: Möller Johanna E. , Dogruel Leyla
Published: June 2020

While previous communication and media research has largely focused on either studying privacy as personal boundary management or made efforts to investigate the structural (legal or economic) condition of privacy, we observe an emergent body of research on the political underpinnings of privacy linking both aspects. A pronounced understanding of the politics of privacy is however lacking. In this contribution, we set out to push this forward by mapping four communication and media perspectives on the political implications of privacy. In order to do so, we recur on Barry’s (2002) distinction of the political and the politics and outline linkages between individual and structural dimensions of privacy. Finally, we argue that the media practice perspective is well suited to offer an analytical tool for the study of the multiple aspects of privacy in a political context.

ESPAÇO E SUBJETIVIDADE: ENTRELAÇAMENTOS ENTRE SUJEITOS E FAVELA EM BECOS DA MEMÓRIA, DE CONCEIÇÃO EVARISTO
Authors: DE FARIAS AVILA NETO
Published: June 2020

O presente trabalho visa analisar aspectos referentes ao espaço na obra Becos da Memória (2006), da autora Conceição Evaristo. Entende-se aqui que a favela, lugar em que o romance é ambientado, ocupa papel de fundamental importância na construção de tal narrativa, agindo na representação das personagens negras e, principalmente, na construção das fortes mulheres na escrita de Evaristo. Ela é lugar tanto de pertencimento quanto de trânsito dos indivíduos, reforçando a ideia de que os espaços por onde os sujeitos passam são organizados tendo como base suas experiências e trocas com o seu corpo. Nesse sentido, o dar voz ao “espaço-favela” faz-se o movimento de descentralização, retirando o véu que cobriu os sujeitos marginalizados, dando, assim, voz às diferenças. Tais reflexões serão realizadas a partir de apontamentos de importantes teóricos que pensam o espaço como elemento de uma história, fundamento de caráter inseparável ao indivíduo narrado.

Trânsitos Binários na Cena Almodovariana: Um Estudo Sobre Fale com Ela
Authors: Pereira Santos Danilo , Silva Rocha Caio César
Published: June 2020

O binarismo ou sistema binário é um construto histórico/social/discursivo que agrega dispositivos normativos de circunscrição dos comportamentos, das ações, das disposições psicoemocionais dos indivíduos, polarizando, regulando e localizando os corpos em duas categorias de gênero aparentemente imutáveis, estáveis e coerentes – o masculino e o feminino – ditando como homens e mulheres devem se portar de acordo a suas marcas corporais (pênis e vagina). Partindo desse pressuposto, este trabalho tem por objetivo a análise do longa-metragem Fale com Ela, do diretor espanhol Pedro Almodóvar, em que questões sobre binarismo sexual são evidenciadas, desconstruídas e problematizadas com base nas cirandas de amor e morte que envolvem os/as personagens centrais do filme.
“TÁ RINDO DE QUÊ?”: DISCURSOS E PRODUÇÃO DE SENTIDOS EM ADELAIDE, ZORRA TOTAL
Authors: Costa Bruno Marcelo , Nunes Paulo , Torres Vânia
Published: June 2020

Este texto concentra-se na discussão sobre televisão, mais especificamente na personagem Adelaide, apresentada no programa humorístico Zorra Total, da Rede Globo de Televisão. O artigo parte da premissa de que a televisão ainda é o principal meio de comunicação utilizado pelos brasileiros, sendo pertinente destacar seu papel social e ideológico na construção de sentidos e significados. Portanto, propomos analisar as produções de significado provocadas/emergidas pelo caráter de Adelaide da televisão humorística. Para tanto, utilizaremos como contribuição teórica pensadores de três áreas temáticas, a saber: para apresentar e discutir a televisão com um meio de comunicação predominante no Brasil, utilizaremos os escritos de Dominique Wolton (1996); ainda em discursos televisivos, também é importante dialogar com Niklas Luhmann (2005), que tratará da construção da realidade a partir desses discursos/imagens gerados pela mídia; para trazer uma discussão sobre humor e riso, usamos Henri Bergson (2001) e, no terceiro eixo temático, negritude no espaço televisivo, estamos baseados em Stuart Hall (2016) e Joel Zito Araújo (2000). Como metodologia de pesquisa, caminharemos no referencial teórico da análise de discurso, fazendo um corte de dois episódios do personagem listado.
A CATILINÁRIA DE MONTEIRO LOBATO: UMA ANÁLISE RETÓRICA DO ARTIGO A PROPÓSITO DA EXPOSIÇÃO MALFATTI
Authors: Santos Nayara Christina Herminia Dos , Ferreira Fernando Aparecido
Published: June 2020

Com este trabalho nos propomos a perscrutar retoricamente o artigo “A propósito da exposição Malfatti”, do escritor Monteiro Lobato, publicado em 20 de dezembro de 1917 e elaborado a designo da exposição de pintura moderna da artista plástica Anita Malfatti, precursora da arte moderna brasileira. Destarte, analisa-se as nuances retóricas do discurso proferido por Lobato, averiguando sua estrutura retórica e argumentativa; o ethos construído pelo autor; e as paixões realçadas pelo discurso. O artigo fundamenta-se sobre o alicerce teórico da Retórica, com os estudos de autores como Aristóteles (2015), Perelman e Olbrechts-Tyteca (2005), Meyer (2007), Reboul (2004), Fiorin (2014), e Tavares (1978). Sobre Malfatti, sua obra e o contexto cultural de sua época, consideraremos os trabalhos de Batista (2006) e Coelho (2012). O uso de recursos retóricos no discurso caracteriza a catilinária de Lobato, que atinge o auditório da época e desperta paixões.

Published: June 2020

The current level of scientifi c knowledge and understanding of the genome, as well as the level of human computational capabilities, form new, so-called «post-genomic technologies» for genome research. The results of such studies can be used in diff erent areas of human life and society, for example in criminology, including solving crimes. And there may be both positive and negative legal consequences. Genetic research is an extremely useful tool for crime investigation. But it is still unclear to what extent law enforcement agencies should be able to obtain genetic data stored in public and private databases, and how this may aff ect human rights in the future.

The aim of the study is the modern scientific literature estimation in the field of the investigation of neurodegenerative and metabolic disorders mediated by the trace amines and their receptors. The analysis of modern ideas about the feedback of neurodegenerative and metabolic diseases in which the trace amines and their receptors are involved was carried out. The important role of trace amines and their receptors in the regulation of the dopamine system, in connection with metabolic and neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinsons disease, ADHD, schizophrenia, obesity, metabolic syndrome and other pathological conditions, has been shown. Trace amines and their receptors have a direct effect on dopamine systems, being regulators of various metabolic and neurodegenerative processes, participating in energy metabolism, neurogenesis, and other vital processes.

Published: June 2020

Current research suggests the potential use of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in the treatment of brain injuries. Intravenous administration of MSCs to adult rats with brain injury leads to the restoration of behavioral and neurological status and helps to normalize maternal behavior. In this work, it was shown that a single transplantation of syngeneic mesenchymal stem cells (5 mln) into the bloodstream of female rats with motor deficiency has a corrective effect on the behavior of their offspring: it prevents the development of violations of research and locomotor behavior in the Open Field test and reduces emotional disorders.

Authors: Yogi Suresh Kumar , Choudhary C. R. , Borana Hemant , Desai Govind
Published: June 2020

Pulmonary embolism remains a disease that needs high clinical suspicion to prevent mortality and morbidity. More so in young healthy individuals, the suspicion is very low as compared to old age individuals with multiple co-morbid conditions. Pulmonary embolism carries high mortality if not suspected and treatment initiated as early as possible. Authors describe a case of yellow wasp stings associated with chronic left leg DVT and pulmonary artery thrombosis, which is rare following wasp stings and therefore extend the clinical spectrum of wasp envenomation.

Published: June 2020

Background: The association of cholecystectomy with alterations in lipid profile is well documented. Objectives of this study were to determine the effect of cholecystectomy on lipid profile of cholelithiasis patients.

Methods: This cross-sectional observational study was done on 170 patients admitted in general surgery department of Naz Memorial Hospital, Karachi from July 2018 to June 2019. Symptomatic cholelithaisis patients between 18 to 60 years, elective cholecystectomy was included while patients previously on lipid lowering agents, diagnosed renal failure, nephrotic syndrome, cardiac failure, pregnant mothers, hypothyroidism, pancreatitis and obstructive jaundice were excluded. For data analysis, SPSS was used. Wilcoxon signed ranked test was used to compare mean values of pre and post-operative lipid profiles after cholecystectomy keeping p value of <0.05 as significant.  

Results: 60% of patients were females with majority, 31% patients between 31-40 years while least, i.e. 11% were between 61-70 years. The mean pre-operative and post-operative difference of 52±7.32 mg/dl was seen in total cholesterol levels (p<0.001). The mean difference in high density lipoprotein (HDL) between pre and post-operative was of 13±0.36 mg/dl (p<0.001). The mean difference in low density lipoprotein (LDL) between pre- and post-operative was 61±10.45 mg/dl (p<0.001). The mean difference in triglycerides levels between pre- and post-operative was 46±25.49 mg/dl (p<0.001).

Conclusions: Cholecystectomy in gall stone disease patients elicited favorable response in significantly lowering levels of total serum cholesterol, LDL and triglycerides while substantially increasing levels of HDL cholesterol.

Background: Aero-digestive foreign bodies are prevalent in our part of the country. Apart from the usual foreign body we encountered some unique foreign bodies, the diagnosis and management of which, is difficult due to varied and overlapping clinical presentation. Rare foreign bodies in the aero-digestive tract pose challenges in diagnosis and treatment.

Methods: This was a retrospective observational study on thirty patients with aerodigestive foreign bodies who visited our hospital from July 2015 to October 2017.  

Results: Maximum number of cases was seen in age group of 0-5 years. The male to female ratio was 2:1. Among various types of foreign bodies, majority were metallic (43.3%). The most common site was cricopharynx (53.3%) followed by bronchus (26.6%) and esophageal (16.6%). The most common procedure done was hypopharyngoscopy (53.3%).

Conclusions: Aerodigestive tract foreign bodies are one of the emergencies that have considerable mortality and morbidity. High degree of skill and suspicion are required by surgeon for the management of foreign body.

Progresión maligna de condilomas acuminados anogenitales asociados a Virus del Papiloma Humano de bajo riesgo en mujeres
Authors: Sierra-Bossa Laura Daniela , Zapata-Rozo Julián Ricardo , Rangel-Rivera Diego Alejandro
Published: June 2020

El Virus del Papiloma Humano (VPH) es un agente infeccioso con tropismo por las células escamosas, transmitido por contacto (sexual o vertical) que tiene más de 100 serotipos distintos 1. La Organización Panamericana de la Salud estima que el 90% de las personas serán infectadas a lo largo su vida2; por tanto, este virus constituye la infección viral de transmisión sexual más común y 40 de sus serotipos han sido relacionadas con lesiones anogenitales3. Sin embargo, la mayor parte de los contagios nunca presentan manifestaciones clínicas debido a que, usualmente, el sistema inmune es capaz de eliminar virus antes de que este pueda reservarse en el hospedero, deteniendo la infección desde el primer momento del contacto, por lo que la prevalencia de la infección es mucho menor2. La prevalencia estimada de infección por VPH en los Estados Unidos y Europa corresponde al 9,6% y 8,2%, respectivamente. Se reporta también que la incidencia de condilomas es del 2 al 4% de la población con esta infección, con valores que han aumentado a lo largo del tiempo3.
