Effects of UVB treatment on neutrophil function in psoriatic patients and healthy subjects
Authors: Lundin A , Michaëlsson G , Venge P , Berne B
Published: July 2023

To evaluate if whole body UVB irradiation has effects on the neutrophil function, eleven patients with mild to moderate psoriasis and 14 healthy subjects were treated with whole body UVB irradiation 3 times weekly for 4 weeks. Eight healthy untreated subjects served as controls. After 2 weeks of treatment the individual change of phagocytosis measured by the ingestion of IgG-coated particles was related to the pre-treatment value both in the psoriatic patients and healthy subjects (p less than 0.05 and p less than 0.001, respectively). Similar results were obtained for ingestion of IgG-C3b-coated particles. Thus, the change in phagocytic rate seemed to be dependent on the functional activity before treatment. UV irradiation of PMNs in vitro did not influence the phagocytic rate. After 4 weeks of UV treatment the healthy subjects showed a significant decrease in the rate of phagocytosis of IgG-C3b particles (p less than 0.02) and of the serum chemokinetic activity (p less than 0.01). In the psoriatic patients the mean chemokinetic activity in heated sera was decreased after 2 weeks (p less than 0.02). There appeared to be no relation between improvement of psoriasis and changes in PMN function. In an untreated group of healthy subjects no significant changes in neutrophil function were found. The results indicate that there is a change in PMN function during UVB treatment. The degree of change seems to vary, not only between individuals but possibly also between groups, e.g. healthy subjects compared with psoriatic patients.

Penetration and enrichment of flufenamic acid in calf skin from patients with stasis dermatitis.
Authors: Bahmer F A , Loth H , Wild T
Published: July 2023

To investigate the hypothesis that the application of medicaments to skin from the lower leg of patients with stasis dermatitis might lead to their enhanced enrichment, compared with uninvolved skin from the same region, a penetration study was performed with flufenamic acid. In 5 patients with pronounced changes of chronic venous insufficiency and in 5 control patients without chronic venous insufficiency the flufenamic acid content in skin sections parallel to the surface was determined by HPLC. In chronic venous insufficiency-skin, the flufenamic acid concentration was higher in all skin levels compared to control skin. This enrichment of the substance could lead to a prolonged and more intense contact with antigen-presenting cells in this region, thus promoting the development of contact allergies observed so frequently in this pathologic condition.

Published: July 2023

Background and purpose: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a serious postoperative complication after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Use of a tourniquet has shown conflicting results for risk of VTE after TKA. We aimed to investigate the associated risk of VTE after TKA using tourniquet in a fast-track set-up as no previous data exists.Patients and methods: We performed an observational cohort study from 9 fast-track centers including unilateral primary TKA from 2010–2017 with prospective collection of preoperative risk-factors and complete 90-day follow-up. Use of a tourniquet was registered in the Danish Knee Arthroplasty Register. Postoperative VTE was identified from health records. We performed risk analyses using a mixed-effects logistic regression model adjusting for previously identified risk factors.Results: Of the 16,250 procedures (39% males, mean age 67.9 [SD 10.0] years, median LOS 2 [interquartile range 2–3]) 12,518 (77%) were performed with a tourniquet. The annual tourniquet usage varied greatly between departments from 0% to 100%, but also within departments from 0% to 99%. There was no significant difference between the 2 groups with 52 (0.42%) VTEs in the tourniquet group vs. 25 (0.67%) in the no-tourniquet group (p = 0.06 for cumulative 90-day incidence of VTE). This association remained statistically insignificant for VTE using tourniquet after adjustment for previously identified risk factors.Conclusion: We found no association between the use of a tourniquet and increased risk of 90-day VTE after primary fast-track TKA, irrespective of the length of time for which the tourniquet was applied.

Calciphylaxis is a rare, yet underdiagnosed condition causing high mortality in patients with severe renal and cardiovascular disease. Since knowledge of the pathophysiology of calciphylaxis is limited, a differential analysis of histological alterations in patient subgroups with various comorbidities might expose different disease phenotypes and allow deeper insights into the pathophysiology of the condition. Histological markers of osteogenesis and calcification were investigated in a group of 18 patients with clinically and histologically verified calciphylaxis, using immunohistochemical staining. Analysis of staining intensity and distribution of marker proteins in histological structures was performed to evaluate distinct patterns between subgroups with different clinical comorbidities in comparison with a control group. In all cases, immunohistochemical staining for bone matrix proteins, bone-morphogenic proteins and matrix-Gla proteins co-localized with subcutaneous vascular and interstitial calcifications. Significant expression of bone-morphogenic protein-7 and active matrix-Gla protein was observed. Mortality was associated with renal comorbidities and increased expression of bone-morphogenic protein-7. However, no distinct histological patterns were found between subgroups with renal disease, warfarin intake or coexisting micro- and macro-angiopathies. The upregulation of osteogenic markers (including bone-morphogenic protein-7) plays a major role in the development of calciphylaxis. Clinical outcome correlates with kidney function and phosphate handling, suggesting different pathophysiological mechanisms. However, biopsy  at late-stage disease shows a common histological phenotype, involving enchondral ossification.

Published: July 2023

The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of a herbal anthelmintic (Garlic and Neem combination) on the production parameters of Karan Fries cows. For this study, a total of 28 freshly calved cows (1-3 parity), were divided into four groups with 7 cows in each group (T1, T2, T3, T4). The cows in T1 were kept as the control. In T2, a commercial dewormer was used, whereas in T3, a single dose of garlic and neem in the ratio of 1:5 @ 4g/kg BW was used 7 days post calving, and in T4, in addition to the first dose, a second dose was also supplemented on day 60 after calving. The milk samples were collected at 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 fortnights after the deworming treatment and analyzed for milk composition and SCC. From the 5th fortnight onwards, a significantly higher (P≤0.05) daily milk yield (kg) was observed in T1, T2, T3 groups compared to T1. The overall average Somatic Cell Count (SCC) was found to be significantly lower in T4 followed by T3, compared to T2, which was further significantly lower than T1. From the 3rd to the 8th fortnight, protein (%) was observed to be significantly (p≤0.05) higher in the anthelmintic treated groups (significantly higher in T4 followed by T2, T3) compared to T1. From the 4th to the 8th fortnight, fat (%) was significantly (P≤0.05) higher in T4 compared to T1. The overall SNF (%) in T2, T3 and T4 differed significantly (P≤0.05) from the control group (T1). The overall value of lactose (%) was found to be significantly higher in the T4 group compared to the other groups. During the 7th and 8th fortnight significantly higher (P≤0.05) lactose (%) was observed in the T4 group compared to the other groups. This study concluded that besides providing better anthelmintic effects in comparison to chemical anthelmintics, the garlic and neem combination might improve the production performance of dairy cows.

Published: July 2023

W artykule omówiono przykłady abuzywnych postanowień kredytów indeksowanych i denominowanych do CHF. W ostatnich latach można było zaobserwować trudności ze spłatą tzw. kredytów frankowych. Kryzys ten spowodował również wzmocnienie najsilniejszych walut światowych, w tym franka szwajcarskiego. W konsekwencji w znaczny sposób wzrosła wysokość miesięcznych rat kredytów w tej walucie. Dla osób, które były obciążone zobowiązaniem kredytowym, stanowiło to konieczność spłaty kredytu o wartości dwu lub trzykrotnie większej, aniżeli pierwotnie zakładali. Celem niniejszej pracy jest przedstawienie charakteru umów kredytowych zawieranych przez banki, a także postanowień zawieranych w tych umowach, gdyż obecnie przed sądami powszechnymi toczy się szereg spraw, w których kredytobiorcy zarzucają, że banki w umowach zawierały tzw. klauzule abuzywne. W niniejszym opracowaniu zostaną omówione orzeczenia sądowe, których przedmiotem była kwestia abuzywności, co pozwoli zdefiniować pojęcie kredyty indeksowanego oraz denominowanego. Opracowanie wsparte jest o wyniki ankiety przeprowadzonej na grupie 100 osób poświęconej praktyce orzeczniczej w zakresie umów kredytów indeksowanych i denominowanych do CHF. Jej celem było uzyskanie informacji o konsekwencjach zawarcia umów kredytów indeksowanych i denominowanych do Franka Szwajcarskiego.

Continuing education of teachers as a condition for improving the quality of education in institutions of general secondary education
Authors: Yampol Yurii
Published: July 2023

The article analyses the professional development of teachers in terms of practical significance. The model of managing the process of professional development of teachers in an educational organisation aimed at improving the management of the quality of education in general secondary education institutions is theoretically substantiated. The works and researches of domestic scientists in the field of development of teachers’ professional competence are studied and their influence on the development and formation of quality management in educational institutions is analysed. It is established that the beginning of the process of a teacher’s professional development can be called the moment of self-determination of an individual which is carried out twice: when entering a higher education institution or a college and at the time of its graduation when choosing a further place of work. The theoretical aspects related to the management of teachers’ professional development within general secondary education institutions are generalised. It is noted that the development of teachers in an educational organisation is a process of growth of the educational (general and professional) potential of a teacher's personality, organisationally provided by the system of the state and public institutions. The study reveals and substantiates the state of professional development management of teaching staff, which is a process of purposeful implementation of a management strategy in an educational institution aimed at forming teachers’ certain competencies. The conceptual idea in the theory of development management of pedagogical staff at an educational institution is the creation of an internal organisational practice-oriented system of teacher in-service training, which implies that the basis of professional development should be an active subjective position of the teacher himself/herself, his/her intensive practice-oriented methodological (scientific and methodological) activity, and it should end with a certain result or product developed by the teacher in the process of in-service training.
Hacia una comprensión de los procesos de formación de grabados rupestres: las areniscas de las localidades Palancho ? Los Colorados (área centro-sur de la Provincia de La Rioja, Argentina)
Authors: Kligmann Débora M. , Falchi María Pía
Published: July 2023

En este trabajo se presenta una propuesta inicial de un proyecto geoarqueológico en curso, que busca comprender los diferentes pasos de la cadena operativa de producción de grabados rupestres y sus consecuencias en los procesos de formación a lo largo del tiempo, considerando particularmente los procesos de deterioro del arte. Para ello se plantea una cadena operativa basada en modelos previos, la cual incluye cinco etapas que se pueden combinar de diferentes maneras: 1) Selección del soporte y obtención de materias primas, 2) Ejecución, 3) Uso, 4) Mantenimiento, Reciclaje y/o Superposiciones y 5) Alteraciones postdepositacionales naturales. Para ejemplificar la mencionada propuesta se toma como caso de estudio las representaciones rupestres en areniscas localizadas en el área centro-sur de la provincia de La Rioja, Argentina. Dado que todo el arte rupestre de la zona analizada hasta el momento es grabado, en este proyecto se propone generar información respecto de una evidencia material muy representativa de la arqueología regional. Por un lado, y desde un punto de vista arqueológico, el análisis de las características de las rocas utilizadas como soporte permite comprender algunos aspectos sociales de los grupos que habitaron esta zona en el pasado, como ser las elecciones de los lugares donde se ejecutaron las representaciones así como de las técnicas utilizadas. Por otra parte, se busca desarrollar herramientas que resulten de utilidad para realizar un diagnóstico del estado de deterioro de esta evidencia y, en el futuro, aportar al plan de manejo implementado en la Reserva de Usos Múltiples Los Colorados. Se trata así de contribuir con una nueva perspectiva a los análisis de arte rupestre ?habituales?, dado que los estudios de geoarqueología vinculados al arte aún son escasos en nuestro país. Esto se debe a que la mayoría de los estudios de las representaciones rupestres se centran en aspectos morfológicos y estilísticos mientras que algunos otros estudian aspectos técnicos. Solo unos pocos apuntan a las características de los soportes rocosos, ya sea en lo vinculado a la producción del arte o a su preservación.
Especies medicinales de las Sierras Chicas (Córdoba, Argentina): saberes, usos y prácticas de etnobotánica médica
Authors: Luján María Claudia , Martínez Gustavo Javier
Published: July 2023

Las plantas de las sierras de Córdoba constituyen un recurso etnobotánico de inusual valor e interés para su uso y conservación. El objetivo del presente trabajo es caracterizar el uso, rol y significación de la etnoflora medicinal entre los pobladores rurales de la región de las Sierras Chicas de Córdoba.  Se seleccionaron por medio de un muestreo intencional y por la técnica de bola de nieve a especialistas de la medicina tradicional, a quienes se aplicaron entrevistas abiertas y semiestructuradas con recorridas a campo. Las etiologías y diagnósticos populares muestran continuidad y similitud con los de otras regiones culturales de la provincia de Córdoba y centro de Argentina. Se documentaron un total de 480 usos terapéuticos correspondientes a 249 taxones medicinales autóctonos y exóticos que pertenecen a 76 familias, de las cuales 2 corresponden a hongos, 5 a pteridófitas y 69 a angiospermas. Las especies nativas silvestres resultaron mayoritarias (52.2 %), seguido por las introducidas cultivadas (24.5%). Las familias con mayor cantidad de usos fueron Asteraceae y Lamiaceae. En relación con sus usos se destinan prioritariamente al tratamiento de afecciones digestivas, de la piel y respiratorias. El análisis de la información etnomédica y etnobotánica, así como de los especialistas implicados en la atención de la salud en las Sierras Chicas, revela por un lado que no se trata de un corpus homogéneo, sino de la confluencia de saberes provenientes de diferentes pobladores y tradiciones médicas, y aún de una combinación entre ambos.Este estudio demuestra la gran aceptación que aún hoy tiene la medicina tradicional y el uso de plantas medicinales en las sociedades estudiadas. En la etnobotánica médica de la región los practicantes nativos, han incorporado representaciones y prácticas terapéuticas variadas, conformando una vasta farmacopea natural, en la que resulta central la flora nativa.

In this contribution we analyze the origin, organization and activities of the "Sociedad Ameghiniana de Ciencias Naturales e Instituto de Historia Americana" which began in 1947 and existed for more than 10 years. This society had its main headquarters at the Museo Escolar de Ciencias Naturales de San Antonio of San Antonio de Areco. The first directive committee comprised Carlos Merti (President), Roberto Pertierra (Vice-President), José Mignone and Juan Pisano (Secretaries), Luis Gil Paez (Treasurer), José Bonaparte, Julio Yelpo, Sergio Juanola, Florentino Domingues, Eduardo Soto and Alfredo Rosso (Vocals). Among its noteworthy members are Asencia M. de Ameghino (widow of Carlos Ameghino), Carlos Rusconi and Galileo Scaglia. The society held numerous events in different towns (e.g., Luján, Mercedes, Chascomús); organized the "Primer Congreso Ameghiniano de Ciencias Naturales e Historia" in the Uruguayan town of Mercedes and the ?Congreso Mundial Ameghiniano de Ciencias Naturales? in Luján; and made numerous efforts toward the protection of paleontological heritage (e.g., popular initiative to buy Florentino Ameghino?s house in Luján). Among the scientific presentations made at events, those by Lucas Jorge Kraglievich, Osvaldo Reig, Aníbal Montes, Aldo R. J. Paoli and Máximo Valentinuzzi stand out, in addition to those of other members of the society. The Society motto was: "To carry on Ameghino?s work by studying, researching and teaching, claiming no titles other than those of knowledge, nor more honor than cultivate popular culture." Despite its dynamism and a membership of outstanding researchers, this society has gone unnoticed in the history of Argentine paleontology.
Evolución de la regulación de la información no financiera en Europa
Authors: Manzano Cuadrado Ana
Published: July 2023

Los inversores, los consumidores y la sociedad en general demandan cada vez en mayor medida información acerca de los aspectos medioambientales, de igualdad y de sostenibilidad, por lo que las empresas deben proporcionar información sobre estos aspectos que complemente la información financiera. 
El 14 de diciembre del 2022 se aprobó la Directiva de modificación de las Directivas de contabilidad, de transparencia y de auditoría y del Reglamento de auditoría de EIP para tratar de mejorar el marco de presentación de la información en materia de sostenibilidad y su verificación y así solucionar los problemas detectados en la aplicación práctica de la anterior Directiva que regula la información no financiera.
Se ha cambiado el ámbito de aplicación incluyendo nuevas entidades, entre ellas las PYME cotizadas, se regula la verificación obligatoria de esta información, con un enfoque progresivo de seguridad limitada en un primer momento y seguridad razonable en un momento posterior, cuando sea factible, y se regulan las normas que deberán emplearse a nivel europeo para la preparación de la información en materia de sostenibilidad y su verificación, lo que contribuye a una mayor armonización a nivel comunitario.
The impact of lifestyle modification on the management of chronic gout; a systematic review
Authors: Nazer Mai
Published: July 2023

Gout is a common type of inflammatory arthritis that is associated with poor quality of life. Lifestyle modifications were shown to be effective in managing gout and its associated comorbidities. In this systematic review, it was aimed to assess the impact of lifestyle modifications on management of gout. The systematic literature was done through the PubMed database during the year 2013 and 2023. The search terms were "Lifestyle" and "Gout". Afterward, the results were filtered to include the lifestyle factors associated with gout. Overall, 185 studies were obtained from the PubMed database. After the full-text inspection, 174 studies were excluded from the current study. Therefore, only 11 studies met the inclusion criteria for the present systematic review. The current study highlights the importance of lifestyle modifications and dietary interventions in managing gout and preventing its comorbidities. Further studies are recommended to address the effectiveness of lifestyle modifications in managing gout.
