Published: August 2023

This comprehensive review delves into cancer's complexity, focusing on adhesion, metastasis, and inhibition. It explores the pivotal role of these factors in disease progression and therapeutic strategies. This review covers cancer cell migration, invasion, and colonization of distant organs, emphasizing the significance of cell adhesion and the intricate metastasis process. Inhibition approaches targeting adhesion molecules, such as integrins and cadherins, are discussed. Overall, this review contributes significantly to advancing cancer research and developing targeted therapies, holding promise for improving patient outcomes worldwide. Exploring different inhibition strategies revealed promising therapeutic targets to alleviate adhesion and metastasis of cancer cells. The effectiveness of integrin-blocking antibodies, small molecule inhibitors targeting FAK and the TGF-β pathway, and combination therapies underscores their potential to disrupt focal adhesions and control epithelial-mesenchymal transition processes. The identification of as FAK, Src, β-catenin and SMAD4 offers valuable starting points for further research and the development of targeted therapies. The complex interrelationships between adhesion and metastatic signaling networks will be relevant to the development of new treatment approaches.
Comparative study of musical timbral variations: Crescendo and Vibrato using FFT-Acoustic Descriptor
Authors: GONZALEZ YUBIRY , PRATI RONALDO CRISTIANO
Published: August 2023

Quantitative evaluation of the musical timbre and its variations is important for the analysis of audio recordings and computer-aided music composition. Using the FFT acoustic descriptors and their representation in an abstract timbral space, variations of a sample of monophonic sounds of chordophones (violin, cello) and aerophones (trumpet, transverse flute, and clarinet) sounds are analyzed. It is concluded that the FFT acoustic descriptors allow us to distinguish the timbral variations of the musical dynamics, including crescendo and vibrato. Furthermore, using the Random Forest algorithm, it is shown that the FFT-Acoustic provides a statistically significant classification to distinguish musical instruments, family of instruments, and dynamics. We observed a better behavior for the FFT-Acoustic descriptors when classifying pitch compared to some timbral features of Librosa.
Representations by Beurling Systems
Authors: Kazarian Kazaros S.
Published: August 2023

We say that a system {zmF(z)}m=0∞ is a Beurling system if F is an outer function. Beurling’s approximation theorem asserts that if F is an outer function from H2(D) then the system {zmF(z)}m=0∞ is complete in the space H2(D). We prove that a Beurling system with F∈Hp(D),1≤p<∞ is an M−bases in Hp(D) with an explicit dual system. Any function f∈Hp(D),1≤p<∞ can be expanded as a series by the system {zmF(z)}m=0∞. For different methods of summation we characterize outer functions F for which the expansion converges to f. Related results for weighted Hardy spaces in the unit disc are studied. Particularly we prove Rosenblum’s hypothesis.

Health Shock, Borrowing, and Rural Household Welfare: Evidence from China
Authors: ZHANG Xinyu
Published: August 2023

Due to the incomplete of China's current social security system, health shocks are one of the main risks faced by rural families. Using data from the 2019 China Household Finance Survey, we examined the impact of borrowing on household welfare when rural households face health shocks. We found that household income and food expenditure both declined significantly when rural households faced health shocks; rural household borrowing was mainly used for the treatment of the diseases, and it had a crowding out effect on tourism and general health care expenditures, but not on education expenditures. We also found that the impact of borrowing on the western region was higher than that on the central and eastern regions from Looking at the impact of borrowing in different regions. Finally, we put forward some suggestions for promoting sustainable rural development from the perspective of medical security, such as accelerating the promotion of new rural medical insurance, helping rural low-income families improve health benefits, establishing diversified financing channels, improving rural financial platforms, and solving the financing difficulties of households to improve the ability of rural households to resist health shocks.

Authors: Németová Zuzana , Kohnová Silvia , Sabová Zuzana
Published: August 2023

Among the main elements that contribute to climate change are degradation processes and the ecological level of the landscape. These two topics have been discussed and researched for many years and many studies have been conducted. The idea of the article is to determine the correlation between the ecological stability of the territory and the intensity of degradation processes and find out how the ecological stability affects the intensity of soil erosion and vice versa. The ecological stability was calculated based on various methods during the years analyzed, i.e., 1990, 2006, 2012, and 2018. The soil water erosion was performed for the same period in order to identify the relationship between the ecological stability and intensity of soil erosion. The investigated area is located in the Slovak Republic while each year reflects different management of the territory reflecting the current situation in the catchment according to the year evaluated. The intensity of the erosion process was conducted using a phycially-based EROSION-3D model and based on the precipitation derived using Community Land Model (the CLM model). In addition to identifying the relationship between the level of ecological stability and the intensity of erosion, this study also describes the development the ecological stability during the evaluated period together with changes in soil erosion processes.

Published: August 2023

Extensive surface and upper air measurements of a typhoon over the northern part of the South China Sea, namely, Typhoon Talim in July 2023, are documented and analyzed in this paper. A number of features have been observed from the upper air measurements. First, the log law and the power law are found to be appropriate in fitting the wind profiles of the typhoon in the first 1000 m or so above the sea surface. A low level jet is observed in the lower troposphere from the observations of the radar wind profilers. The paper is also novel from the perspectives that the vertical wind profile from a Doppler LIDAR on an offshore platform over the northern part of the South China sea, and that ocean radar data are used to analyze the surface wind observations of a typhoon in the region. The results of this paper would be useful in understanding the structure of tropical cyclones, e.g. in wind engineering applications.
GC-MS Based Cerebrospinal Fluid Metabolomics to Reveal the Protection of Coptisine against Transient Focal Cerebral Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury via Antiinflammation and Antioxidant
Authors: Zhang Jun Jie , Qi Ao , Liu Lu lu , Cai Chun , Xu Hui
Published: August 2023

Coptisine (Cop) exerts a neuroprotective effect in central nervous system disease, particularly ischemic stroke. However, its protective mechanism is still unclear. This study aimed to investigate the protective effect of Cop on cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (IR) rats with a middle cerebral artery occlusion model by integrating a gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) based metabolomics approach with biochemical assessment. Our results showed that Cop could improve neurobehavioral function and decrease the ischemia size in IR rats. In addition, Cop was found to decrease inflammatory mediators (e.g., prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and attenuate oxidative stress response (e.g., increase the superoxide dismutase (SOD) expression and decrease 8-iso-PGF2α level). Furthermore, GC-MS based cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) metabolomics analysis indicated that Cop influenced the level of glycine, 2,3,4-trihydroxybutyric acid, oleic acid, glycerol, and ribose during IR injury. Cop exhibited a good neuroprotective effect against cerebral IR injury and metabolic alterations which might be mediated through its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory property.

Published: August 2023

Heart rate variability (HRV) is a measurement of the fluctuation of time between each heartbeat and reflects the function of the autonomic nervous system. HRV is an important indicator for both physical and mental status and for broad-scope diseases. In this review, we discuss how wearable devices can be used to monitor HRV, and we compare the HRV monitoring function among different devices. In addition, we have reviewed the recent progress in HRV tracking with wearable devices and its value in health monitoring and disease diagnosis. Although many challenges remain, we believe HRV tracking with wearable devices is a promising tool that can be used to improve personal health.

Ageing is associated with a decline in both Nrf2 activity and DNA repair efficiency, leading to the accumulation of DNA damage and an increased risk of cancer. Understanding the mechanisms behind the increased level of damaged DNA during ageing is crucial for developing interventions to mitigate age-related cancer risk and improve overall health in older individuals. (Poly)phenols are plant-derived bioactive compounds that undergo metabolism into simpler phenolic catabolites following ingestion. While these compounds have been associated with various health benefits, further analysis of their bioavailable catabolites is necessary. To this end, four phenolic catabolites derived from colonic microbiota were investigated for their ability to reduce DNA damage in response to oxidative challenge and modulate the Nrf2-Antixoidant Response Element pathway. Normal and adenocarcinoma colonocyte cell lines (CCD 841 CoN, & HT29 respectively) were exposed to sub cytotoxic concentrations (>10 µM,) of hydroxylated (4-hydroxybenzoic acid, 3-(3’-hydroxyphenyl) propionic acid) and non-hydroxylated (benzoic acid or 3-phenylpropionic acid) phenolic acids. Using the COMET assay, each catabolite demonstrated significant (p<0.001) geno-protective activity, albeit with varying potency. They also significantly modulated expression of key genes in the Nrf2-ARE pathway, including Nrf2, Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), and NAD(P)H dehydrogenase quinone 1 (NQO1). Hydroxylation of the phenolic acids appeared to have a limited effect with respect to bioactivity. Overall, the colon derived phenolic metabolites, when assessed at physiologically relevant concentrations, reduced DNA damage in both normal and adenocarcinoma colonic cells in response to oxidative challenge, mediated – at least in part via upregulation of the Nrf2-ARE pathway.

Published: August 2023

In recent years, there has been a notable rise in the incidence of breast cancer among young patients, who exhibit worse survival outcomes and distinct characteristics compared to the intermediate and elder patients. Therefore, it’s imperative to identify identify the specific features unique to young patients, which could offer insights into potential therapeutic strategies and improving survival outcomes. In our study, we performed an integrative analysis of bulk transcriptional and genomic data from extensive clinical cohorts to identify prognostic factors. Additionally, we analyzed the single-cell transcriptional data and conducted in vitro experiments. Our work confirmed that young patients exhibited higher grading, worse disease-free survival (DFS), a higher frequency of mutations in TP53 and BRCA1, a lower frequency of mutations in PIK3CA, and upregulation of eight metabolic pathways. Notably, galactose metabolism pathway showed upregulation in young patients and was associated with worse DFS. Further analysis and experiments indicated that galactose metabolism pathway may regulate the stemness of cancer cells and ultimately contribute to worse survival outcomes. In summary, our finding identified distinct clinicopathological, transcriptional, and genomics features and revealed a correlation between galactose metabolism pathway, stemness, and poor disease-free survival of breast cancer in young patients.

Abstract

This study aims at obtaining data on the role of the community of Baduy Luar guides in an effort to maintain local wisdom along with socio-cultural changes that occur in the Baduy Luar village, Kanekes Village, Lebak Regency, Banten. The researcher uses a qualitative approach. Data collection techniques are carried out by semi-structured interviews, observations, analysis of documents and field notes. The results of the study concluded that the tourism services carried out by the HPI-DPU Baduy were still very simple in general but were in accordance with the concept of tourism services, starting from transfers, guiding tours, and transfer out. The concept of service they are doing is directly related to their strategy in maintaining local wisdom. Their role is at least in the three dimensions of local wisdom, namely: (1) local values; (2) local resources; and (3) local group solidarity. The socio-cultural changes that occur in the Baduy Luar community in the tour community are caused by several factors. Internally, changes occur because of Baduy’s people attitude who are increasingly open. Then externally, changes occur because the Baduy people interact more intensively with outside communities such as meeting tourists, trading, participating in training and farming outside their area.

A 71-year-old otherwise healthy man presented with an 8-week history of elbow pain and weakness in both elbow flexion and forearm supination. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed complete rupture of the distal biceps tendon insertion associated with 65 mm of proximal retraction. At 10 weeks after initial injury, the patient underwent a novel reconstruction technique using a periosteal flap from the iliac crest; subsequently, all symptoms resolved.

Conclusion:

Chronic distal biceps tendon injuries can be reconstructed safely and effectively using a periosteal flap from the iliac crest that allows not only rigid but also biological graft attachment.
Tibial Component Undersizing Is Related to High Degrees of Implant Migration Following Cementless Total Knee Arthroplasty
Authors: Andersen Mikkel Rathsach , Winther Nikolaj , Lind Thomas , Schrøder Henrik , Flivik Gunnar , Petersen Michael Mørk
Published: August 2023

Background:

Radiostereometric analysis (RSA) studies have shown that the continuous migration of tibial components is predictive of aseptic loosening following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). In the present study, we investigated whether accurate sizing and placement of tibial components are related to the degree of implant migration as measured with use of RSA.

Methods:

A total of 111 patients who underwent TKA surgery with a cementless tibial component were followed for a period of 2 years postoperatively, during which implant migration was assessed with use of RSA. RSA was performed within 7 days postoperatively and after 3, 6, 12, and 24 months. Postoperative radiographs were evaluated for component size and placement in the tibia. The evaluations were performed by experienced knee surgeons who were blinded to the migration data and clinical outcomes. A multivariable linear regression analysis was conducted.

Results:

Continuous implant migration (i.e., migration occurring between 12 and 24 months postoperatively) had a negative association with tibial component size (coefficient [B], −0.2; 95% confidence interval [CI], −0.33 to −0.08). Subsidence was associated with the absence of posterior cortical bone support (B, −0.7; 95% CI, −1.09 to −0.28), the absence of lateral cortical bone support (B, 0.8; 95% CI, 0.29 to 1.37), frontal-plane varus malalignment (B, 0.6; 95% CI, 0.12 to 1.16), and component undersizing (B, −0.4; 95% CI, −0.06 to −0.68). Posterior tilt was associated only with undersizing (B, 0.6; 95% CI, 0.27 to 1.11).

Conclusions:

Undersized cementless tibial components are at a higher risk for poor fixation with continuous migration following TKA. Therefore, a higher risk of aseptic loosening should be expected.

Therapeutic Level IV. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.
