Background and Objectives: Cytokines and other immune regulatory molecules are critical for mounting an effective immune response against cancer. The gastrointestinal (GI) microbiome plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of cancer and the response to immunotherapy. The central hypothesis guiding this project was that specific immune biomarkers and microbiome profiles will serve as predictors of effective vs. ineffective immunotherapy in patients with malignant diseases. This pilot feasibility study aims to establish baseline immune markers and microbiome profiles in subjects with newly diagnosed malignant solid tumors (n = 10), healthy subjects without diagnosed malignant disease (n = 10), and in existing patients treated with immunotherapy (n = 10). Methods: Parallel blood and stool samples were collected and used in the biomarker and microbiome analysis. The biomarkers in the two groups were analyzed by Principal Component Analysis, heat map with clustering, and differential expression based on P value, and Significance Analysis of Microarrays (SAM). The microbiome analysis was performed using long read 16S rRNA encoding gene sequencing with data visualization and analysis in R. Significant differences in alpha and beta diversity were evaluated between the groups. Results: Several biomarkers that were differentially expressed were identified. Significant taxa differences at the class (Clostridia), order (Clostridiales, Lactobacillillales), family (Eubacteriaceae, Lactobacillaceae), genus and species were identified. Furthermore, a limited analysis of samples from existing patients on immunotherapy who were responders (n = 4) vs. stable non-responders (n = 5) identified differentially expressed immune biomarkers and significant bacterial taxa differences. Conclusion: This study has established the feasibility for conducting a future larger study at the local community cancer center to evaluate whether immune and microbiome markers can predict effective vs. ineffective responses to immunotherapy and whether either or both molecular and microbial markers may have therapeutic potential.

Objective: To characterize claw lesions and to analyze the factors associated with types of claw lesions in sows. Methods: Claw lesions were scored for 184 sows in farrowing stalls on day 110 of gestation, and associations with body condition (body weight and backfat thickness on day 109 of gestation), parity, gestation housing system, and lameness were analyzed using logistic regression models. Results: At least one lesion was present on at least one claw on the wall and the heel areas of 88.6% and 86.4% of sows, respectively, with more severe lesions on forelimbs and on lateral claws. The likelihood of wall lesions in any claw increased with body weight on day 109 of gestation. For any claw, the likelihood of heel lesions increased and the likelihood of overgrown heels decreased with higher backfat. Non-lame sows were less likely than lame sows to have white-line lesions on any claw. Sows of parity ≤ 5 were more likely to have white-line lesions in any claw than sows of parity > 5. Sows housed in pens with electronic sow feeders (ESF) were more likely than stall-housed sows to have all types of lesions in any claw. Implications: Under the conditions of this study, lameness and younger parity were associated with white-line lesions. Use of ESFs was associated with more severe lesions. Measures to minimize claw lesions in sows are needed to reduce the incidence of lameness and probably removal rates, especially for younger parities.

Published: August 2024

Objectives: To estimate the prevalence of palpable lingual cysts in pigs in Western Kenya, a possible indicator of porcine cysticercosis, and to study the potential risk factors associated with this clinical finding. Methods: During a cross-sectional survey, 316 randomly selected small-scale farms were visited, from which a case-control study of 31 case farms and 93 randomly selected control farms was constructed. Information on potential risk factors for Taenia solium cysticercosis-taeniosis was obtained using questionnaires administered via personal interviews. Results: Farm prevalence of palpable lingual cysts was estimated at 9.8% (31 of 316) (95% confidence interval [CI], 6.5%-13.1%). Total number of pigs testing positive was 33, resulting in a pig prevalence of 6.5% (95% CI, 4%-9%). Pigs were kept as a source of income (98%) and for home consumption (2%). Sources of pigs included local purchases (94%; 117 of 124), and purchases from Uganda (6%; seven of 124). Most farmers (95%; 118 of 124) kept their pigs on free range. Pork was sourced from local butcheries (85%) and home slaughtering (15%). Most households slaughtering pigs at home had their pork “inspected” by household friends (five of nine). Absence of latrines was more common in case households (42%; 13 of 31) than in controls (18%; 17 of 93) (P = .01; OR = 3.2; 95% CI, 1.2%-8.55). Implications: Palpable lingual cysts are prevalent in the locally raised pigs of Western Kenya. Further studies using more sensitive diagnostic tests are required to confirm the risk of porcine cysticercosis.
Ulceration of the anus in groups of pubertal male pigs
Authors: McOrist Steven , Williamson Mark
Published: August 2024

Ulceration of the anus as a specific condition has not been reported widely in swine medicine. Sporadic occurrences were noted in groups of 40 to 200 sixteen- to 17-week-old entire male pigs on four separate finisher facilities with similar management. Cases on each facility rapidly rose from none to between 20% and 30% over 2 weeks, then stabilized. Gross lesions in early affected cases consisted of deep, punched-out cavity ulcers, commencing to one side of the anal sphincter. The ulcers initially had clean, well-circumscribed ulcer margins, with rolled edges and minimal obvious granulation. Affected pigs had fully developed secondary sex glands and firm dry feces. Deep ulcer tissue consisted of proliferative fibroplasia in vascular connective tissue. Bacteriologic culture and histologic Gram stains identified Streptococcus dysgalactiae and Clostridium perfringens within representative ulcers. Outbreaks occurred when aggressive and sexually active pubertal male pigs were housed in areas of poor water and excreta drainage. Anal ulceration lesions were clearly distinguishable from the more common conditions of anal prolapse or tail-biting lesions. Initial trauma to the anus due to homosexual behavior with a consequent mixed infection, including S dysgalactiae, in a softened ano-cutaneous environment, may be the cause for these unusual lesions.

Objective: To evaluate lung lesions at slaughter after three-dose vaccination with a subunit Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae vaccine containing ApxI, ApxII, ApxIII, and an outer membrane protein. Materials and methods: A total of 430 newborn piglets in a herd endemically infected with A pleuropneumoniae were assigned to control and treatment groups by block randomization at litter level. Pigs vaccinated at 6, 10, and 14 weeks of age and unvaccinated controls were housed in three rooms containing 12 pens each, with treated and control groups mixed in pens. Individual pig data included average daily gain (ADG), number of antimicrobial treatments, and clinical disease. Sera of vaccinated (n = 5) and control pigs (n = 6) collected at 6, 10, 14, 18, and 23 weeks of age were tested for A pleuropneumoniae antibodies using the complement fixation test and ELISAs for Apx toxins and outer membrane protein. At slaughter, lungs were examined for gross and microscopic lesions and cultured for A pleuropneumoniae. Differences in ADG and occurrence of A pleuropneumoniae-related lesions were compared between treatment groups using multilevel mixed models with room and pen as random effects. Results: Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae-related lesions and ADG did not differ between control and treatment groups. Maternal immunity against A pleuropneumoniae was detected until 10 weeks of age. Moderate vaccine titres were observed after the third vaccination. Implications: Maternal antibody may interfere with the response to subunit A pleuropneumoniae vaccines. Postponing vaccination until 10 to 14 weeks of age might be advisable in herds with high maternal immunity.

Authors: Saranya Er.K , V.Suganya Mrs
Published: August 2024

Ensuring stability and reliability in power converters within modern power systems is of paramount importance. This paper introduces an innovative grid-forming control approach employing an Inertial Phase Locked Loop (IPLL) method. This novel technique combines phase-locked loop principles with inertial response features to bolster the stability and synchronization of power converters with the grid. The IPLL method delivers precise and resilient phase and frequency synchronization, essential for maintaining grid stability under dynamic conditions. By harnessing the unique attributes of the IPLL, the proposed control strategy enhances power converter performance, ensuring they can effectively support grid stability and facilitate grid-forming operations. The effectiveness of the IPLL-based grid forming control is validated through both simulations and experimental results, showcasing its potential to improve the robustness and reliability of power converter systems across various operating conditions.

Authors: Kozina Mariya , Studenkova Natal'ya , Pal'ceva Dar'ya
Published: August 2024

The article is devoted to the search for new solutions in the field of normative and methodological support and digital transformation of the state cadastral valuation system in order to improve it with regard to agricultural lands in terms of data collection on pricing factors. In the article the authors analyze the historical aspects of the development of methods for the assessment of agricultural lands (appraisal, economic, cadastral). In the course of the study, the authors conducted a comparative analysis of the current methods of cadastral valuation of agricultural lands for the period 2000 - 2024, which showed that, despite the significant changes, the methodology still needs more detailed elaboration. This conclusion is confirmed by the results of the performed analysis of the content of State Cadastral Valuation reports in 2023; which showed: appraisers refuse to take into account price-forming factors related to additional characteristics of the segment “Agricultural use” when calculating the cadastral value. The result of the research is the technological scheme of data collection on pricing factors in relation to land plots of the segment “Agricultural use” designed for automation of cadastral value determination processes.

. In today's rapidly evolving digital era, e-commerce has emerged as a cornerstone of global trade. However, the proliferation of online fraud incidents has given rise to significant ethical concerns. This study delves into the ethical ramifications of online fraud profiles and tactics within the cybercrime domain, particularly their impact on the e-commerce ecosystem. Ethical considerations play a pivotal role in shaping behavior within e-commerce, safeguarding consumers, and guiding the formulation of effective policies by both e-commerce entities and governments. This research scrutinizes the phenomenon of online fraud in e-commerce transactions through a survey involving two respondent groups: Information Systems students at ITS and students from other departments. The survey results reveal that online fraud inflicts substantial emotional distress on victims, including feelings of panic, anger, and sadness. Financial losses and the potential exposure of sensitive data are prevalent repercussions of online fraud, eroding consumer trust and prompting questions about the ethical conduct of fraudsters. To address these issues, recommendations encompass heightened awareness of online fraud risks, increased transparency among e-commerce sellers, streamlining fraud reporting procedures, and a commitment to upholding higher standards of business ethics. The overarching objective is to foster a more ethical, secure, and sustainable e-commerce environment. In summary, this research offers comprehensive insights into how respondents perceive and experience online fraud in Indonesian e-commerce transactions, providing valuable guidance for more effective mitigation.

The second factor is education and age, where female traders who have low education and are quite old and do not have the qualifications to work in other places, because they are old, but they are still fit and productive to work, decide to become traders at the Aurduri market. The third factor of self-actualization, the results of the research, showed that respondents admitted that they enjoyed selling at the market because apart from being able to meet friends, filling their free time also increased their income. The contribution of women traders to the family is classified as medium to high, which can be seen from the results of their sales which are used for daily needs, to increase family income, and also to save on unexpected costs. There are two obstacles faced by women traders, namely the weather conditions when it rains making buyers in the market lonely, secondly, the large number of home-scale vegetable sellers competes with the price and completeness of goods which are almost available in every neighborhood and housing complex, especially those on the road to the market. Aurduri makes buyers prefer shopping in nearby places.
