A Região do Bolsão Sul-Matogrossense apresenta vastas áreas ocupadas com pastagens em algum estágio de degradação. O cultivo de amendoim pode ser uma alternativa para recuperação destas áreas e uma possibilidade de renda para os pecuaristas da região. Este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar o desempenho agronômico de genótipos de amendoim nas condições edafoclimáticas da Região do Bolsão Sul-Matogrossense. O experimento foi conduzido na Fazenda experimental da Universidade Estadual de Mato Grosso do Sul – UEMS, localizada no município de Cassilândia – MS, no ano agrícola 2020/21. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi em blocos casualizados, com quatro repetições. Foram avaliados dez genótipos de amendoim, sendo sete linhagens (2133 OL, 1253 OL, 2055 OL, 2010 OL, 1944 OL, 1973 OL e 2101 OL), duas cultivares (BRS 421 OL e BRS 423 OL), ambas desenvolvidas pelo Programa de Melhoramento do Amendoim da Embrapa e uma cultivar argentina da El Carmen (Granoleico). As parcelas eram constituídas por duas linhas de três metros de comprimento, com espaçamento de 0,90 m e área útil para avaliação de 5,4 m2 por parcela. A colheita foi realizada aos 131 dias após a semeadura, no dia 30 de março de 2021. As variáveis avaliadas foram severidade de mancha preta, massa de 100 grãos e produtividade de vagens. Com base no presente estudo de campo, conclui-se que os genótipos BRS 421 OL, BRS 423 OL e 2133 OL obtiveram as menores notas de severidade. O genótipo BRS 421 OL obteve a maior massa de 100 grãos. Por fim, as maiores produtividades foram obtidas nos genótipos 1944 OL, 2010 OL, BRS 423 OL, 2133 OL, 1973 OL e 2055 OL, com produtividades superiores a 5.200 kg.ha-1, demonstrando uma possível adaptação agronômicas nas condições edafoclimáticas da região do Bolsão Sul-Matogrossense.

Técnicas de sensoriamento remoto e o aprendizado de máquinas são ferramentas importantes para o setor agropecuário, e podem trazer melhorias significativa no gerenciamento agrícola. Diante disto, objetivou-se criar um método de predição da maturação do amendoim a partir de imagens de veículo aéreo não tripulado (UAV), utilizando redes neurais artificias (RNA). O experimento foi conduzido em talhão comercial na safra do ano 2019/20 no município de Dumont – SP. A coleta das imagens foi obtida através da câmera multiespectral Micasense RedEdge. Dois modelos de RNA’s (RBF e MLP) foram utilizados para predizer o índice de maturação do amendoim, com as bandas espectrais e 7 índices de vegetação sendo utilizados na camada de entrada. Para validação dos modelos, foram utilizados 20% dos dados e para treinamento 80%. O NDRE foi capaz de predizer o PMI com precisão (0.90 e 0.88) e acurácia (0.06 e 0.06) para as redes MLP e RBF respectivamente. A avaliação de desempenho dos modelos indica que as redes RBF e MLP são semelhantes para predizer a maturação do amendoim. Conclui-se com este trabalho que o índice de maturação pode ser previsto utilizando índices de vegetação a partir de imagens de UAV.

Published: October 2021

Background

The type of anesthesia used in total knee arthroplasty is one modifiable factor that could save hospital systems time and money. With spinal and general anesthesia having similar outcomes, more weight can be placed on these anesthesia methods’ time or money-saving aspects.

Objective

This study aims to determine the differences in time expenditure between spinal and general anesthesia for total knee arthroplasty to optimize OR efficiency and reduce costs.

Methods

A retrospective analysis of 200 unilateral total knee arthroplasty procedures (CPT Code 27447) was performed from Jan 2017 - July 2019 at one institution. 100 of these received spinal anesthesia, and 100 received general anesthesia. Patient charts were reviewed to obtain demographic, surgical, and anesthetic data.

Results

Time to prepare the patient for surgery and total preoperative time was significantly decreased in the general anesthesia group (24.4 minutes vs. 18.5 minutes; p=<0.0001 and 25.4 minutes vs. 20.4 minutes; p=0.012). After surgery, the time to remove the patient from the operating room was significantly decreased in the spinal group (4.8 minutes vs. 7.0 minutes; p= <0.0001). Nonoperative total time was not significantly different between the two groups (49.3 minutes vs. 46.6 minutes; p=0.1127).

Conclusion

While there are significant differences in certain operating room time periods between spinal and general anesthesia, these differences are effectively canceled out when considering total operating room time.

Gendered Comic Traditions: How Fanny Fern's Satire Subverts Nineteenth-Century Colonial Continuity and Enables Twenty-First Century Neocolonial Hybridity
Authors: Caron James E.
Published: October 2021

This article offers examples from the antebellum period that bear out Judith Lee's matters of empire framework; it exposes the ways in which American humor both continues and breaks away from its English antecedents, showing in particular how Sara Willis Parton as Fanny Fern does and does not fit into aesthetic and philosophical parameters about satire and satirists that can be traced back to English periodicals. After outlining a colonial continuity through a discussion of Parton and two contemporaries, Lewis Gaylord Clark and William Makepeace Thackeray, I go on to suggest that Parton's Fanny Fern persona also functions as a symbolic origin for a genealogy of women satirists who evoke Hélène Cixous's image of a laughing Medusa, a genealogy I describe as a neocolonial hybrid because it details American women writing satire to mock and resist the domestic imperium of US patriarchy.

Published: October 2021

Objective: The aim of the study is to correlate the AST to platelets ratio (APRI) with different stages of liver fibrosis measured by the fibroscan. Methods: The study included 40 patients. The study was conducted in outpatient clinic of Lahore General Hospital. The study duration was from November-2020 to January-2021. Their fibroscan data was collected from hepatic clinic of general hospital OPD and their AST and Platelets values were obtained retrogradely from the PACS system of hospital. Correlation between the APRI and fibroscan values was done by linear Pearson correlation test. Results: APRI values showed moderately positive correlation with increased kpa values and different stages of fibrosis (r=0.55). Similarly, the correlation coefficient of AST also shown to be moderately positive correlated with kpa values and stages of fibrosis however this correlation was slightly weak as compared to APRI values (r=0.49). The correlation coefficient (r) for platelets showed moderately negative correlation with liver fibrosis stages (r=-0.43). Conclusions: APRI levels increased as the degree of fibrosis and inflammation increased in patients suffering from chronic hep B and hep C. So, our data showed the clinical significance of APRI levels in diagnosing extent of liver fibrosis and cirrhosis. Keywords: AST, Platelets, APRI, fibroscan, chronic hepatitis

Published: October 2021

Objective: The purpose of this study was to find out the association of peripheral neuropathy in hepatitis C infection with and without cryoglobulineamia. Study Design: Cross sectional study Place and Duration: Conducted in Liver Transplant Unit, Gambat Institute of Medical Sciences, Gambat Khairpur Mirs, Sindh for the duration of six months from November 2020 to April 2021. Methods: Total 50 patients who had hepatitis C infection and peripheral neuropathy were included in this study. Patients were aged between 18- 60 years. Detailed demographics of patients including age, sex and body mass index were recorded after taking informed written consent. When symptoms and evidence of peripheral sensory or motor involvement were evident, clinical neuropathy was diagnosed. Sural nerve biopsy was done on patients and the biopsy specimen was evaluated morphologically and morphometrically. Multiple neuropathy, cranial neuropathy, and polyneuropathy are all terms used to describe peripheral nerve involvement. Our research focused on the motor conduction of the median, ulnar, and common peroneal nerves, measuring MCV, CMAP amplitude, and distal latency (DL) in both patients with and without cryoglobulinaemia for each nerve. The SPSS 20.0 version was used to analyze the data. Results: Mean age of the patients was 46.23±9.87 years with mean BMI 29.16±11.27 kg/m2. There were 30 (60%) females and 20 (40%) were males. We found that 35 (70%) patients had CG involvement with peripheral neuropathy and 15 (30%) cases were without CG. Prevalence of polyneuropathy was higher 19 (54.3%) in CG patients as compared to non CG 2 (13.3%). Mononeuropathy or multiple neuropathy was higher in HCV CG patients 13 (37.1%) as compared to HCV non CG patients 4 (26.7%). 25 patients underwent nerve biopsy (20 CG patients and 5 non CG). Prevalence of epineurial vasculitis and fascicular loss of axons was higher in non CG patients while demyelination + axonal degeneration were prevalent in CG patients. MCV of the deep peroneal nerve in patients with CG+ was low as compared to CG. Even though no statistically significant differences were detected, the other neurophysiological measures pointed to a more extensive and severe involvement of peripheral nerve in CG+ patients. Conclusion: We concluded in this study that the association of peripheral neuropathy in HCV patients with cryoglobulinaemia was greater as compared to non-CG HCV patients. It appears that both CG+ and CG patients suffer from peripheral nerve injury via a vasculitic mechanism, as evidenced by clinical and morphological observations. Serum CG levels indicate a more severe and broad neuropathic involvement, however research suggests that cryoglobulins are not the only element in the vasculitic process.

Published: October 2021

Aim: To compare conventional ultrafiltration (CUF) with zero-balanced ultrafiltration (Z-BUF) in the patients having valvular heart surgery. Methods: This cross-sectional mono-centered retrospective study was designed. The data of total 471 patients were reviewed during March 2018 to February 2020, only 98 patients fitted in the inclusion criteria and were divided into two groups with 47(47.95%) patients received CUF, while 51 (52.04%) patients were administered with Z-BUF at the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, King Edward Medical University, Lahore, Pakistan. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS version 25. The early postoperative clinical outcomes included, renal function as primary outcome and hemodynamics stability of the patients as secondary outcome. Results: Renal functions in terms of serum creatinine (1.1 vs. 1.3mg/dL; P < 0.010) and creatinine clearance ratio (81.51vs. 67.3mL/min; P < 0.01) were improved in the patients having Z-BUF compared with CUF. Urine output was almost double in the Z-BUF cohort compared with the CUF. The hemofiltration technique had no impact on the secondary outcomes as amount of the blood loss and number of patients required blood transfusion were similar (P > 0.05) in our cohort. Conclusion: Z-BUF appeared to be better hemofiltration method than CUF during CPB when assessed in terms of renal protection without hemodynamic status in patients undergoing valvular heart surgeries in our population.

Authors: Richter Samanta Andresa , Gevehr Daniel Luciano , Berg Maisson da Silva
Published: October 2021

O estudo teve como objetivo analisar as concepções dos profissionais da saúde acerca do acesso à saúde prestado à população migrante. Trata-se de um estudo qualitativo, exploratório-descritivo. Para a realização do estudo, foram entrevistados 7 enfermeiros e 2 Agentes Comunitários de Saúde (ACSs). O período de coleta de dados foi nos meses de outubro a novembro de 2019. Para análise dos dados foi utilizada a análise de conteúdo, proposta por Minayo (2014). Este estudo respeita os aspectos bioéticos referente às pesquisas com seres humanos. Para elucidar os resultados emergiram três categorias temáticas, a saber: “como cheguei aqui?” o processo de inserção e acesso à saúde dos migrantes; barreiras para o atendimento prestado aos migrantes residentes; e significados que permeiam os profissionais de saúde no atendimento ao migrante, as quais elucidam os principais aspectos encontrados pelas entrevistadas dos profissionais. Um dos principais aspectos que os profissionais relataram com relação às barreiras, foram o idioma e a comunicação. Contudo, ressalta-se que o estabelecimento do vínculo entre usuário - profissional de saúde - serviço de saúde, podem fortalecer o acesso à saúde da população de migrantes.

O presente estudo apresenta a história da modalidade, sua evolução, adaptação e fundamentos voltados à natação, sendo uma modalidade que tem sido procurada por todas as faixas etárias, por seus vários benefícios para a saúde e recomendada a todas as idades. Á maior procura por esta pratica esportiva, é realizada por indivíduos que não sabem sobreviver no ambiente liquido sendo bebê e crianças. O índice de acidentes de afogamentos tem aumentado cada vez mais, principalmente por indivíduos pequenos. O Fato de serem curiosos faz com que muitos acidentes com indivíduos assim seja silenciosa, pois é possível que se afoguem até dentro de um balde. Mas este tipo de acidente não acontece apenas bebês e crianças, mas também com adultos. A adaptação do indivíduo ao meio liquido apresenta variações de acordo com suas vivencias desde a infância, em que por falta de estímulos, por não conhecerem o ambiente, por falta de afetividade, nesta fase os alunos acabam tendo medo e insegurança ao se depararem com um volume grande de água como da piscina.

GÜNCEL KARARLAR VE SON GELİŞMELER IŞIĞINDA ICSID TAHKİMİNDE HAKEMİN REDDİ
Authors: DINLEYICI Ahmet Sefa
Published: October 2021

Tahkimde hakemlerin bağımsızlığını ve tarafsızlığını temin edecek düzenlemelerin başında hakemlerin ifşa yükümlülükleri ve hakemin reddi düzenlemesi gelmektedir. Bu kapsamda ise Uluslararası Yatırım Uyuşmazlıkları Çözüm Merkezi (ICSID) Tahkim Kurallarının diğer tahkim kurallarından birçok açıdan farklı olduğu göze çarpmaktadır. ICSID sistemindeki bu farklılıklar temelde hakemlerin ifşa yükümlerinin çok geniş olduğu ama buna karşı hakemin reddi standardının çok yüksek olduğu; bunlara bağlı olarak ret talep oranının yüksek, ret talebi kabul oranının ise çok düşük olduğu bir sonuç meydana getirmiştir. Ortaya çıkan bu durum ICSID tahkimindeki hakemin reddi mekanizmasının işlevselliğinin sorgulanmasına yol açmıştır. Buradan hareketle yapılan bu çalışmada ICSID tahkiminde hakemin reddi konusu diğer tahkim kurallarıyla karşılaştırmalı olarak ele alınmış, ICSID sistemindeki eksiklikler ortaya konulmaya ve çözüm önerileri getirilmeye çalışılmıştır. Varılan en önemli sonuçlardan birisi ret standartlarının 2013 yılından günümüzde değin istikrarlı bir şekilde kolaylaştırıldığı ve diğer tahkim normlarıyla uyumlulaştırıldığıdır. Ancak bu iyileşme ICSID sisteminde hakemin reddi mekanizmasını tek başına işlevsel hale getirmeye yeterli olmayıp; ret talebini değerlendirme usulünün de değiştirilmesi gerekmektedir. Ayrıca ret sebebi olarak sıklıkla ileri sürülen ‘hakemin bir tarafça birden fazla kez atanması’ veya ‘hakemin uyuşmazlık konusunda akademik yayın yapması’ gibi konularda ICSID yatırım tahkimi sisteminin ticari tahkimden farklı dinamikleri olduğu gözetilerek hakemin reddi konusunda buna göre karar verilmesi gerekmektedir.

Authors: Valdez Campos José , Delgado Monsalve Fernando , Pillco Cochan Carlos , Rodriguez Vasquez Kevin Isaac
Published: October 2021

La presente investigación evaluó la biomasa y el contenido de nutrientes presente en las plantaciones de Eucalyptus urograndis, a 4 edades de crecimiento (15, 34, 39 y 52 meses) en cuatro sitios, ubicadas en la provincia Padre Abad, región Ucayali. Para determinar la producción de biomasa y el almacenamiento de nutrientes, se seleccionó un individuo para cada edad, cuyo criterio de selección fue el árbol promedio procedente de la parcela de medición de 500 m2.  Mediante método destructivo se obtuvieron muestras de 1 kg por elemento vegetativo como hojas superiores, hojas inferiores, ramas, corteza, madera y raíz; los cuales fueron analizados mediante espectrofotometría en la determinación de   macro y micro elementos. El resultado obtenido para el contenido de biomasa por edad, es el siguiente: 15 meses (23,79 tn/ha), 34 meses (35,46 tn/ha), 39 meses (74,18 tn/ha), 52 meses (79,47 tn/ha). La diferencia de la productividad (m3/ha/año) se atribuye a la calidad de sitio, manejo, material genético y la edad. En cuanto a la extracción de los nutrientes, el calcio fue el elemento de mayor concentración en promedio sobre las 4 edades de crecimiento, seguido del potasio, nitrógeno, magnesio, sodio y fosforo. Así mismo, nitrógeno fue el elemento que tuvo mayor presencia en las hojas, sobre todo en las hojas superiores, pero también uno de los elementos con mayor movilidad.

Authors: Navarro-Sandoval Brian Giusephe , Canales-Carrera Estefany Estrella
Published: October 2021

El interés creciente por el cultivo de pitahaya ha permitido la propagación de esquejes de diferentes variedades promoviendo su comercialización a nivel nacional e internacional, requiriéndose asegurar la calidad fitosanitaria y la propagación masiva en menor tiempo de dicho cultivo. Por ello, en el presente estudio, a través de la técnica de cultivo in vitro, se evaluó el efecto de cuatro concentraciones del regulador de crecimiento BAP (Bencilaminopurina) y un control sobre la etapa de establecimiento in vitro en explantes provenientes de areolas de Hylocereus guatemalensis, comúnmente conocido como American Beauty. Se empleó un total de 60 unidades muestrales evaluados por un periodo de tres meses. El mayor porcentaje de brotación se obtuvo en un periodo mínimo de 30 días con una concentración de 0.5 mg/l de BAP, así mismo, en cuanto a la longitud de cladodios, dicha concentración permitió obtener la mayor longitud con una media de 22.92 mm, estableciéndose diferencias significativas con los demás tratamientos empleados. El mayor número de areolas por cladodio se obtuvo con los tratamientos 0.5 mg/l y 1 mg/l de BAP, respectivamente. Tras superar con éxito la etapa de establecimiento, la presente investigación permitirá continuar con los estudios relacionados a la micropropagación vegetal del cultivo.
