Authors: Lomberg Margarita , Krupodorova Tetiana , Krasinko Viktoriia , Mykchaylova Оksana
Published: November 2023

The aim of the study was to investigate the antibacterial activity of
selected strains of the genus Hericium, belonging to basidiomycetes, from
the IBK Mushroom Culture Collection of the M.G. Kholodny Institute of Botany
of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. A total of 14 strains
including H. abietis, H. cirrhatum, H. coralloides, and H. erinaceus were
investigated. The strains were cultivated on a liquid glucose-peptone-yeast
medium. Both the homogenised mycelium and filtrate of these fungi were
evaluated against gram-positive (Bacillus subtilis, Micrococcus luteus, and
Staphylococcus aureus) and gram-negative (Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas
aeruginosa) bacteria by the disk diffusion and cylinder methods. The
activity of the strains varied significantly. Depending on the techniques
assay, species, strain, and stage of fungal development, the inhibition zone
of the tested bacteria ranged from 5.3 mm to 20.0 mm. In general, the
antibacterial potential of the culture filtrates of the investigated species
was significantly higher than their mycelia activity. The homogenised
mycelium showed potentially good results only against E. coli. The
antibacterial activities of the H. abietis and H. cirrhatum species were
observed for the first time. To the best of our knowledge, the ability of H.
coralloides to inhibit the growth of P. aeruginosa and S. aureus has not
been previously reported. The obtained results indicate the ability of the
studied Hericium species to produce antibacterial metabolites with a wide
and narrow spectrum of action which might have potential health benefits and
could be recommended for the further analysis, isolation and identification
of potentially promising antibacterial compounds in pharmacology.

Published: November 2023

The vegetative propagation of ectomycorrhizal truffle fungi is limited by
their slow mycelial growth. Many factors including media, isolate genotypes
and environmental conditions can alter fungal mycelial growth rates. This
study aimed to improve the in vitro growth rate of Tuber brumale by
determining the optimal carbohydrate and nitrogen sources, temperature and
pH. After 8 weeks, the highest level of growth and densest hyphal branching
were recorded in the medium containing glucose as the main carbohydrate. For
nitrogen, glutamine (200 mg N l-1) provided the greatest hyphal growth and
density compared to the other amino acid treatments. Regarding temperature,
16?C proved to be optimal for T. brumale growth and branching. Media of pH 6
and pH 7 were most favourable for the growth of T. brumale. The results from
this research provide baseline data on the vegetative nutrition of T.
brumale and have implications for the in vitro culture of winter truffle
hyphae.

able to offer the possibility for internet users to make digital clones.
Through research of existing practices and interviews with internet users
who have lost someone, this paper will offer the answer about how much are
these practices actually commonplace and available to all. This empirical
research looks into the reality of digital immortality, especially when it
comes to the social networks and the online sphere.
Metformin-Cimetidine Drug Interaction and Risk of Lactic Acidosis in Renal Failure: A Pharmacovigilance-Pharmacokinetic Appraisal
Authors: Xie Wenhuo , Li Jianbin , Zheng Chenghua , Luo Wei , Zheng Jiaping , Zhou Yu
Published: November 2023

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate lactic acidosis (LA) risk when using metformin combined with histamine H2 receptor inhibitors (H2RI) in patients with renal failure (RF).

Research Design and Methods: This study analyzed FDA Adverse Event Reporting System data (Q4 2012 to Q4 2022) to characterize reports of LA associated with metformin alone or combined with H2RI. Using a disproportionality approach, LA risk signal in the overall population and in patients with RF was assessed. A physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model was developed to predict metformin and cimetidine pharmacokinetic changes following conventional doses of the combinations in patients with various degrees of RF. To explore its correlation with LA risk, a peak plasma metformin concentration of 3 mg/L was considered the threshold.

Results: Following the 2016 FDA metformin approval for mild-to-moderate RF, the percentage of patients with RF reporting LA associated with metformin combined with H2RI increased. Disproportionality analysis showed reported LA risk signal associated with metformin and cimetidine in the overall population within the study timeframe only. Furthermore, with PBPK simulations, when metformin (1000 mg bid) with cimetidine (300 mg qid or 400 mg bid) in stage 1 of chronic kidney disease, metformin (1000 mg bid) with cimetidine (300 mg qid or 400 mg bid or 800 mg qd) in stage 2, as well as most combinations in stage 3, respectively, the peak plasma metformin concentrations exceeded the 3 mg/L threshold.

Conclusions: Metformin combined with cimetidine at conventional doses may cause LA in patients with mild-to-moderate RF.

Published: November 2023

Background. Advanced hybrid closed-loop systems (AHCL) have been shown to improve glycaemic control and patient-reported outcomes in type 1 diabetes (T1D). The aim was to analyse the outcomes of two commercially available AHCL in real-life. Methods. A prospective study was performed, including adolescents and adults with T1D, AHCL-naïve, from 14 centres, who initiated the use of MM780G with SmartGuardTM or Tandem t:slimX2TM with Control-IQ. Baseline and 3-month evaluations were performed, assessing HbA1c, time in different glycaemic ranges, and patient-reported outcomes. The primary outcome was the between-group time in range 70-180 mg/dl (TIR) difference from beginning to end of follow-up. Results. 150 participants were included, with 75 initiating each system (age: 39.9±11.4 years (16-72), 64% female, diabetes duration: 21.6±11.9 years). TIR increased from 61.53±14.01% to 76.17±9.48% (p<0.001), with no between-group differences (p=0.591). HbA1c decreased by 0.56% (95%CI: 0.44%,0.68%) (6 mmol/mol, 95%CI: 5,7) (p<0.001), from 7.43±1.07% to 6.88±0.60% (58±12 to 52±7 mmol/mol) in the MM780G group, and from 7.14±0.70% to 6.56±0.53% (55±8 to 48±6 mmol/mol) in the Control-IQ group (both p<0.001 to baseline, p=0.819 between groups). No superiority of one AHCL over the other regarding fear of hypoglycaemia or quality of life was found. Improvement in diabetes-related distress was higher in Control-IQ users (p=0.012). Sleep quality was improved (PSQI: from 6.94±4.06 to 6.06±4.05, p = 0.004), without differences between systems. Experience with AHCL, evaluated by the INSPIRE measures, exceeded the expectations. Conclusion. The two AHCL provide significant improvement in glucose control and satisfaction, with no superiority of one AHCL over the other. Keywords: type 1 diabetes, closed-loop system, glucose control, patient-reported outcomes. Article Highlights • Why did we undertake this study? Advanced hybrid closed-loop (AHCL) therapy should be offered to all people living with type 1 diabetes. Up to date, information about direct comparison between different AHCL options is scarce. • What did we find? Here, we describe the effect of MM780G with SmartGuardTM and the Tandem t:slimX2TM with Control-IQ over glycemic control and patient-reported outcomes among adolescents and adults with type 1 diabetes. • What are the implications of our findings? The two AHCL systems provide significant improvement in glucose control and satisfaction, with no superiority of one system over the other.

Nano fertilizer contains the nutrients in a concentrated and energy farm which would also pave the way to have a successful harvest without soil application and to reduce the ill effect on soil. In this regard, the present experiment was carried out over two years at BCKV, West Bengal, India in the Gangetic alluvial soil, to assess the impact of nano fertilizer management on growth and yield of summer hybrid maize cv. ‘Kaveri 50’. The treatments comprised different percentage of recommended dose of fertilizer (RDF) with or without nano fertilizer application. Results revealed that application of 50 % RDZn and 100 % N-P-K along with 2 foliar sprays of Nano-Zn @ 4 ml litre-1 at 25 and 50 DAS (T8) recorded better results of growth attributes. The yield attributes like number of cobs plant-1 (1.30), cob length (21.30 cm), cob girth (16.25 cm), number of rows cob-1 (13.97), number of grains cob-1 (317.6), seed index (25.40 g) and single cob weight (128.74 g) also found highest from the same treatment. Higher grain (8.16 t ha-1) and stover yield (12.22 t ha-1) were recorded in T8 treatment and yield variation was 2.21 to 63.86 % over control with highest benefit-cost ratio (2.35). Hence, application of 50 % RDZn and 100 % N-P-K along with 2 foliar sprays of Nano-Zn @ 4 ml litre-1 at 25 and 50 DAS could be more effective in augmenting yield, available nutrient status and economics of summer maize in the Gangetic plains of India.
Sound-insulating Casing with Resonator Elements
Authors:   Togliatti State University, Deryabin I.V.
Published: November 2023

Constant exposure to industrial noise has a negative impact on the human body. That is why increased attention is paid to the fight against noise, the rationing of industrial noise and vibrations was adopted. One of the effective methods to reduce the noise emitted by the operating equipment is the use of noise-insulating casings. The casing, as a rule, contains an outer skin made of steel sheet, a sound-absorbing lining of the inner skin, a perforated lining of a sound-absorbing coating. A typical octave spectrum of radiation sound pressure levels near the machine has a maximum near the frequency of 500 Hz, and the highest casing efficiency (insertion loss) is achieved in the frequency range of 1000–4000 Hz. The purpose of the study presented in the article is to improve the acoustic properties of the noise-insulating casing in the medium and low-frequency sound spectrum. To accomplish this task, the author proposes integrating resonator elements, in particular, Helmholtz resonators, into the structure of the noise-insulating casing. The natural resonant frequencies of Helmholtz acoustic resonators are determined considering their necessary frequency tuning, which ensures effective suppression of sound radiation at discrete values of the operating dominant frequencies of operating equipment. To reduce the excitation of structural vibrations and sound, as well as additional sound insulation, the frame walls and casing covers are damped on the outside and inside with a layer of vibration-damping material. Significant absorption of sound waves generated by operating equipment is ensured by lining the casing walls with effective sound-absorbing panels made of porous material, lined, in turn, with an external protective sound-transparent layer. The design of a noise-insulating casing with resonator elements presented in the study has high acoustic properties in a wide frequency range. Helmholtz resonators built into the casing structure provide sound absorption in 1/3 octave frequency bands centered at 400 and 500 Hz, characterized by a resonant amplification of the sound emitted by the equipment discussed in the article.

Authors: Tuljannah Aulia , Helmy Herlina
Published: November 2023

AbstractPurpose – The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of CEO managerial ability and overconfidence on tax avoidance.Design/methodology/approach – The study was conducted on 120 annual reports of mining sector companies listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange (IDX) from 2017-2021. Multiple regression was used to test the hypotheses. Tax avoidance was measured by CETR. Managerial ability was measured by firm efficiency and CEO overconfidence is measured by five proxies related to company-specific scores.Findings – This study shows that managerial ability has negative significant effect on tax avoidance. The results reveal that CEO overconfidence has no significant effect on tax avoidance. Managers with high managerial ability will not only increase profits in the short term, but also consider the company's survival in the long term, so; they will reduce tax avoidance activities. Meanwhile, CEO's overconfidence cannot influence the tax management that has been determined by the company.Originality/value– This study attempts to fill the gap in the literature about the influence of management attributes on company decision making in tax avoidance activities. This study indicates that the tax avoidance decision in the company cannot be explained by the executive's psychological characteristics only.Research limitations/Implications – This research is limited to how tax avoidance is influenced by managerial ability and overconfidence in decision making with characteristics related to psychological and internal factors. Future research can add other factors such that can influence decision making in conducting tax avoidance, such as rewards, experience, performance measures and other factors. This study has implications in decision making for policymakers in relation to designing future tax systems to reduce the possibility of companies engaging in tax avoidance practices. Companies are also required to be more transparent in disclosing their performance in generating income to avoid tax avoidance activities.Keywords: Managerial ability, overconfidence, tax avoidance.Article Type: Research Paper.

Published: November 2023

Chronic pain in patients after mine-explosive wounds occurs, on average, in 83.3% of cases. It has already been found that the neuropathic component of pain and the number of localizations of injured anatomical parts of the body have a direct impact on such a high frequency of chronicity. However, the level of satisfaction with treatment results remains unexplored, which is important because it reflects the quality of life from the distant perspective of treatment.The goal of the work. To investigate the level of satisfaction with the results of treatment in patients with mine-explosive wounds.Material and Methods. Data on the treatment of 280 patients with mine-explosive wounds are presented. The level of satisfaction with the treatment results using the Chaban quality of life scale. The Shapiro-Wilk test was used to check the distribution of quantitative indicators for normality. The law of distribution differed from the normal one, the median value (Me) and interquartile range (QI-QIII) were given to represent quantitative indicators, the comparison of indicators in two groups was carried out according to the Mann-Whitney test. To analyze the dynamics of the indicators, the Friedman test was used for related samples, the posterior comparison was carried out using the Bonferroni correction. For qualitative indicators, the absolute frequency of symptom manifestation and relative frequency (%) are presented, and for the comparison of two groups, the chi-square test was used, taking into account the correction for continuity. When conducting the analysis in all cases, the critical level of significance was taken equal to 0.05.Results. The data of the Chaban quality of life scale indicate that the level of satisfaction with the results of the treatment in the studied patients during the entire observation period was maximum before discharge from the inpatient treatment and ranged from 68 to 73 points – the average level of satisfaction. Later, after 1, 3, 6 and 12 months of observation, this indicator decreased and ranged from 62 to 65 points, which corresponds to the average level of satisfaction with the treatment results.Conclusions. The low level of satisfaction with the results of treatment in patients after mine-explosive wounds is probably a consequence of chronic pain. Patients with mine-explosive wounds have a very high risk of chronic pain – 15% higher than patients with gunshot wounds and 57.5% higher than civilian injured patients. Therefore, more attention should be paid to the problem of pain treatment at the stages of treatment.

Published: November 2023

Despite the sufficient study of the pathogenetic factors of preterm birth, there is currently no consensus on the peculiarities of the pathogenesis of disorders of the functional state of the fetoplacental complex in this complication of pregnancy, no unified methodological approaches to early diagnosis have been developed, and there are no standards for the examination and treatment of pregnant women with detected disorders.The purpose of the work. To investigate the level of FPC hormones in pregnant women at risk of preterm birth.Materials and methods. The main group consisted of pregnant women with signs of placental dysfunction and a history of miscarriage (50 women). The control group consisted of 50 healthy pregnant women. Determination of hormones (progesterone, estradiol, placental lactogen) was carried out by the method of solid-phase enzyme immunoassay. The research was performed on an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay according to the instructions for the specified sets of reagents.Results. The content of the hormones estradiol, progesterone and placental lactogen during pregnancy was determined to study the changes in the placental system hormonal function of pregnant women with a threat of premature birth. The concentration of estradiol in the blood serum of pregnant women of the main group was below the norm during the entire pregnancy period. It leads to a decrease in estrogens and progesterone synthesis by the corpus luteum of the ovary, and then by the placenta. A reduction of these hormone levels, which take a direct part in the flow of basic biochemical and physiological processes in the muscles of the uterus, leads to an increase in the contractile activity of the myometrium, which is shown by the phenomena of placental dysfunction and premature birth.Conclusion. Studying the levels of hormones of the fetoplacental complex in pregnant women at risk will allow predicting the development of premature birth.
Triglyceride-glucose index as a criterion for the steatosis of the liver
Authors: Komarytsia O.Y.
Published: November 2023

According to the current scientific literature, a high level of triglyceride-glucose index (TyG) is associated with metabolic-associated fatty liver disease, however, its level and diagnostic value in patients with metabolic-associated steatosis of the liver (MASL) without steatohepatitis is not determined. The aim of investigation is to evaluate the level of TyG in patients with a cardiorheumatic profile with concomitant MASL and study its correlations, Matherial and methods. 224 patients, 99 men and 125 women, with coronary artery disease, unstable angina (44,64%), acute rheumatic fever (25,89%), hemorrhagic vasculitis (29,47%) were examined. Patients were divided into two groups depending on the presence or absence of MASL. The control group included 16 people without cardio-rheumatic diseases with an intact liver. The TyG was determined in all of them, according to Huanan S. (2020) additionally. The results were analyzed statistically.Results. The value of TyG was significantly higher in patients with cardiac and rheumatological diseases than in the control group with an intact liver without lesions of the heart or connective tissue. In the case of presence of MASL, the level of TyG was consistently higher (significantly in patients with unstable angina 5,97±1,05 vs 3,46±0,48; p<0,05). The level of TyG ranged from 4,0 to 6,0 in patients with concomitant MASL. According to the correlation analysis, TyG was associated with total cholesterol, its fractions of low and very low density, acute phase indicators, transaminases, and systolic blood pressure. Conclusions. An increase in TyG up to 4,0-6,0 is characteristic for MASL, unfavorable is an increase in TyG, which is associated not only with the increasing lipid distress syndrome, but also with the activation of systemic inflammation and local inflammation in the liver tissue, which transfers steatosis into steatohepatitis.

Authors: Pokrovska N.K. , Sklyarov Eu.Ja.
Published: November 2023

Objective. To investigate changes in adropin and von Willebrand factor (vWF) levels in patients with arterial hypertension (AH), excess body weight, and obesity.Material and methods. All patients were divided into two main groups: group 1 included 69 patients with AH and excess body weight; group 2 – 55 people with AH and obesity, and 20 healthy people of the control group. Anthropometric measurement, biochemical blood test, echocardiographic examination of the heart, and enzyme immunoassay (adropin, vWF) were performed.Results. The level of vWF was significantly higher in patients with AH, overweight, and obesity compared to healthy individuals (p=0,001). Meanwhile, the adropin level decreased with increasing BMI. The lowest adropin level was observed in individuals with AH and obesity (p=0,011). Additionally, a significant positive correlation was identified between vWF and the size of the LA (r=0,667; p=0,001), RV (r=0,487; p=0,021), MMLV (r=0,795; p=0,001) and IMMLV (r=0,731; p=0,001), whereas a negative correlation was found with EF (r=-0,461; p=0,031).Conclusions. An increase in vWF level was observed in patients with hypertension, overweight, and obesity which contributes to the emergence of endothelial dysfunction and structural myocardial changes, related to AH. The decrease in adropin level – a regulator of the cardiovascular system functions – was associated with an increase in BMI and elevated BP. Negative correlations were found between adropin and systolic and diastolic blood pressure values. It plays an important role in blood pressure and cardiovascular function regulation.
Descolonizando el archivo cinematográfico: contribuciones de los realizadores españoles a la autorrepresentación gitana transnacional
Authors: Moya-Jorge Tamara
Published: November 2023

La historia del pueblo gitano es la historia de un pueblo que no escribió su propia historia (Gómez Alfaro, 2000). Sin embargo, esta realidad está cambiando en las últimas décadas gracias a las revisiones e investigaciones historiográficas promovidas por las nuevas generaciones gitanas en diferentes disciplinas y países. En el ámbito cinematográfico, el pueblo gitano ha sido históricamente representado en los cines europeos, en general, y en el cine español, en particular, como una eterna otredad racial. En las últimas décadas, los avances en derechos humanos y el contexto digital han fomentado que cineastas gitanos de distintos orígenes unan sus fuerzas a nivel transnacional para cambiar estas políticas de representación de forma estructural. En esta línea, plataformas como RomArchive contribuyen al impulso de un contra-canon audiovisual enunciado desde un conocimiento situado gitano. Este artículo se centra en la sección cinematográfica de dicho archivo para estudiar los trabajos de cineastas gitanos españoles que, con sus obras, contribuyen a la descolonización de los modos de representación étnico-raciales en un contexto nacional y transnacional. La metodología empleada para ello es la revisión filmográfica y bibliográfica, el análisis fílmico de sus obras y la entrevista en profundidad con los realizadores.
