Authors: Figueroa Esquinca Talía Esther , Hernández Gutiérrez José Esteban
Published: June 2023

El estudio de la segregación residencial étnica en México está continuamente relacionado a variables socioeconómicas; sin embargo, también existe robustez en cifras de Censos de Población y Vivienda desde 1990 hasta 2020 sobre indicadores socioculturales relacionados a la religión, natalidad, situación escolar, migración o alimentación. Esta investigación tiene como objetivo ampliar y diversificar esfuerzos para comprender el fenómeno en México a través de su relación con indicadores tanto socioeconómicos como socioculturales; por lo que, se analizó la correlación entre etnicidad y (i) religión, (ii) situación escolar, (iii) ocupación y (iv) migración. Seleccionando como caso de estudio la ciudad de San Cristóbal de Las Casas, por sus características de composición social y étnica; se midió la segregación residencial a nivel AGEB con datos provenientes del Censo de Población y Vivienda 2020 aplicando el índice de disimilaridad e índice Delta. Finalmente, los valores obtenidos fueron correlacionados a través del coeficiente de Pearson. Los resultados apuntan que las variables etnicidad y religión tendrán mayor fuerza de relación entre sí; seguidas de cerca por la fuerza de relación entre etnicidad y situación escolar; es decir, se observó una mayor relación con la segregación residencial de tipo sociocultural que con la de tipo socioeconómico.

Authors: F. Galán Jiménez Jaime Sebastián , Oros López Brenda , Campos Llamas Leire , Báez Ávalos Luis Antonio , Reyes Chávez Keshia Yunuen , Sanchez-Armáss Cappello Omar
Published: June 2023

Structural violence occurs by means of social stratification, injustice, political or economic inequity, race, gender, or other conditions. It creates different opportunities and decreases the possibility of covering basic needs. To validate the Structural Violence Beliefs Scale for Youth (SVBS-Y). The scale was developed following a sequential design, starting with content validation by judges, followed by Exploratory and Confirmatory Factorial Analyses (CFA). Finally, we sought to obtain criterion validity evidence with the “Attitudes Toward the Poor Scale”. The sample consisted of 852 students (445 females and 407 male), with an average age of 16.44 (SD = 1.92) years. The CFA confirmed three dimensions: (a) Inequity and prejudice towards people with fewer resources, (b) Interest in equal opportunities, and (c) Ruling class privilege. A rho=.64 indicated an adequate criterion (concurrent) validity. This study provides evidence that the SVBS-Y is a reliable and valid instrument in Mexican youth.

Published: June 2023

This document presents the development of a prototype of a Cartesian robot with a 5 degrees-of-freedom articulated robot arm for possible applications in a wet spinning process at the laboratory-level. The mechatronic system was developed using various modular electronics elements compatible with an ArduinoTM Mega 2560 microcontroller. The control algorithm recognizes the position of the servomotors and the speed of the motors so that the prototype performs a complete cycle of displacement in 67 s, which includes the transport of a polymeric filament immersed in a coagulation bath for 10 s. A structural analysis indicates that there will be no tension failures because the maximum and axial stress of the Cartesian robot was 2.89 MPa while the von Mises tension of the robotic arm was 468 MPa, both tensions below their upper limits. The pulse signals, in the order of 4000 +25 ms, of the servomotors were consistent in 96-98% repeatability and 3-19% reproducibility. Forty percent of the extrusion tests performed were satisfactory, since the transport of a polymeric filament within a coagulant solution was achieved.

Trehalose, a disaccharide molecule of natural origin, is known for its diverse biological applications, like in drug development, research application, natural scaffold, stem cell preservation, food, and various other industries. This review has discussed one such diverse molecule ‘trehalose aka mycose’, and its diverse biological applications with respect to therapeutics. Due to its inertness and higher stability at variable temperatures, it has been developed as a preservative to store stem cells, and later, it has been found to have anticancer properties. Trehalose has recently been associated with modulating cancer cell metabolism, diverse molecular processes, neuroprotective effect, and so on. This article describes the development of trehalose as a cryoprotectant and protein stabilizer as well as a dietary component and therapeutic agent against various diseases. The article discusses its role in diseases via modulation of autophagy, various anticancer pathways, metabolism, inflammation, aging and oxidative stress, cancer metastasis and apoptosis, thus highlighting its diverse biological potential.
High-Throughput Sequencing Reveals N6-Methyladenosine-modified
LncRNAs as Potential Biomarkers in Mice with Liver Fibrosis
Authors: Wu Furong , Zhang Shengyu , Fan Chang , Huang Shaopeng , Jiang Hui , Zhang Jiafu
Published: June 2023

Background:

N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most frequent internal modification in eukaryotic RNA. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a new type of noncoding regulatory molecule with multiple cellular functions. Both are closely related to the occurrence and development of liver fibrosis (LF). However, the role of m6A-methylated lncRNAs in the progression of LF remains largely unknown.

Methods:

In this study, HE and Masson staining were used to observe pathological changes in the liver, m6A-modified RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (m6A-seq) was performed to systematically evaluate the m6A modification level of lncRNAs in LF mice, meRIP-qPCR and RT-qPCR were used to detect the m6A methylation level and RNA expression level of the target lncRNAs.

Results:

A total of 415 m6A peaks were detected in 313 lncRNAs in liver fibrosis tissues. There were 98 significantly different m6A peaks in LF, which were located on 84 lncRNAs, of which 45.2% of the lncRNA length was between 200-400 bp. At the same time, the first three chromosomes of these methylated lncRNAs were chromosomes 7, 5 and 1. RNA sequencing identified 154 differentially expressed lncRNAs in LF. The joint analysis of m6A-seq and RNA-seq found that there were three lncRNAs with significant changes in m6A methylation and RNA expression levels: lncRNA H19, lncRNA Gm16023 and lncRNA Gm17586. Subsequently, the verification results showed that the m6A methylation levels of lncRNA H19 and lncRNA Gm17586 were significantly increased, while that of lncRNA Gm16023 was significantly decreased, and the RNA expression of three lncRNAs was significantly decreased. Through the establishment of a lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network, the possible regulatory relationships of lncRNA H19, lncRNA Gm16023 and lncRNA Gm17586 in LF were revealed.

Conclusion:

This study revealed the unique m6A methylation pattern of lncRNAs in LF mice, suggesting that the m6A methylation modification of lncRNAs is related to the occurrence and development of LF.
Forgotten Topological and Wiener Indices of Prime Ideal Sum Graph of ℤn
Authors: Sözen Esra Öztürk , Eryaşar Elif , Abdioğlu Cihat
Published: June 2023

Background:

Chemical graph theory is a sub-branch of mathematical chemistry, assuming each atom of a molecule is a vertex and each bond between atoms as an edge.

Objective:

Owing to this theory, it is possible to avoid the difficulties of chemical analysis because many of the chemical properties of molecules can be determined and analyzed via topological indices. Due to these parameters, it is possible to determine the physicochemical properties, biological activities, environmental behaviours and spectral properties of molecules. Nowadays, studies on the zero divisor graph of Z_n via topological indices is a trending field in spectral graph theory.

Methods:

For a commutative ring R with identity, the prime ideal sum graph of R is a graph whose vertices are nonzero proper ideals of R and two distinctvertices I and J are adjacent if and only if I+J is a prime ideal of R.

Results:

In this study the forgotten topological index and Wiener index of the prime ideal sum graph of Z_n are calculated for n=p^α,pq,p^2 q,p^2 q^2,pqr,p^3 q,p^2 qr,pqrs where p,q,r and s are distinct primes and a Sage math code is developed for designing graph and computing the indices.

Conclusion:

In the light of this study, it is possible to handle the other topological descriptors for computing and developing new algorithms for next studies and to study some spectrum and graph energies of certain finite rings with respect to PIS-graph easily.
Acute Pancreatitis Complicated by Thrombosis in the Right Brachiocephalic
Veins and Superior Vena Cava: A Case Report
Authors: Zhang Yan-li , Yang Bin , Yu Fei , Liu Yong , Si Guang-yan , He Qi-zhou
Published: June 2023

Background::

Acute pancreatitis (AP) is one of the most common digestive emergencies, and vascular complication is one of the primary reasons for death, with
splanchnic venous thrombosis being the most common. Although extra-splanchnic venous thrombosis is rare, it carries the risk of life-threatening
secondary pulmonary embolism.

Case Presentation:

We have, herein, reported a case of AP complicated by rare brachiocephalic vein thrombosis and superior vena cava thrombosis. A 40 years old
woman was diagnosed with severe AP for abdominal pain 21 days ago. The patient received symptomatic treatment, including acid suppression,
enzyme suppression, lipid-lowering, fluid infusion, anti-infection, and continuous renal replacement therapy. The patient was discharged after
symptomatic relief. Recently, the patient was admitted again for middle-upper abdominal pain and discomfort. On admission, her blood platelet, DDimer,
fibrin degradation products (FDP), and triglyceride levels have been found to be increased; abdominal enhanced CT showed pancreatic
necrosis and an accumulation of peripancreatic necrosis and fluid, while chest enhanced CT suggested thrombosis in the right brachiocephalic vein
and superior vena cava. The patient, however, improved and was discharged after anticoagulation combined with insulin and trypsin inhibitors.

Conclusion::

In diagnosing and treating AP, dynamic monitoring of D-dimer levels is necessary for the timely detection of the development of thrombotic
complications.

fuzi Decoction in Cold-dampness Obstruction Syndrome-type Knee
Osteoarthritis
Authors: Zhao Jinlong , Liang Guihong , Huang Hetao , Yang Weiyi , Pan Jianke , Luo Minghui , Zeng Lingfeng , Liu Jun
Published: June 2023

Background:

The key active components and potential molecular mechanism of
Gancao Fuzi decoction (GFD) in the treatment of cold-dampness obstruction-type knee osteoarthritis
(KOA) remain unclear.

Objective:

To explore the mechanism of GFD in the treatment of cold-dampness obstruction
syndrome-type KOA by network pharmacology.

Methods:

The potential active components and targets of the four herbs in GFD (Fuzi, Guizhi,
Baizhu, and Gancao) were screened using the Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology
(TCMSP) database. The targets of KOA were obtained with the Comparative Toxicogenomics
Database (CTD), the GeneCards database, and the DisGeNET database, and the common
targets of the drugs and disease were ultimately obtained. Cytoscape (v.3.7.1) was used to draw
the active component-target network, and the Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting
Genes/Proteins (STRING) (v.11.0) database was used to construct the protein interaction network.
The Database for Annotation, Visualization, and Integrated Discovery (DAVID) was used
for the Gene Ontology (GO) function and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG)
pathway enrichment analyses of the intersecting targets.

Results:

A total of 102 potential active components and 208 targets of GFD in the treatment of
cold-dampness obstruction syndrome-type KOA were screened. GFD treatment was found to be
closely related to many inflammatory signalling pathways in the treatment of KOA.

Conclusion:

The effect of GFD on cold-dampness obstruction syndrome-type KOA is mediated
by multicomponent, multitarget, and multichannel mechanisms, which provides the basis for further
experimental study of its pharmacodynamic material basis and mechanism.

Report of a Pharmaceutical Intervention
Authors: de Oliveira Alan Maicon , Romeiro Barbara Falaschi , Rodrigues João Paulo Vilela , Varallo Fabiana Rossi , Leira Pereira Leonardo Regis
Published: June 2023

Aims:

Older people, due to the development of multiple morbidities and in a situation of
polypharmacy, become fragile in addition to their own physical and organic aging. For different reasons regarding the treatment, the health care provided, or the physical and mental condition of older
people, problems of adherence to pharmacotherapy are present. Pharmaceutical care is an important
practice to ensure rational pharmacotherapy for this population. The present study aims to describe the
report of pharmacotherapeutic follow-up to a hospitalized older individual with multimorbidity and
use of polypharmacy and to highlight an intervention aimed at adherence to pharmacotherapy.

Case presentation:

This is the planning of a strategy, aimed at promoting health education, which was
carried out during the hospital stay of an older person who was included in the institution's pharmaceutical care services. In addition, at hospital discharge, in order to ensure greater benefits, a bag was
made for the correct storage of medicines and a descriptive didactic list on how to use them. In this
way, improvements were achieved in the transition of care for this patient.

Conclusion:

The importance of developing techniques that promote adherence to pharmacotherapy,
especially for fragile populations, such as older people with multiple diseases, and using polypharmacy is suggested. Individualized educational interventions are instructive measures that can contribute
to people's autonomy in their self-care.

Primary Care Screening with AI and Retinal Photography for AMD, Glaucoma, and DR: A Cost-Effective Alternative (Preprint)
Authors: Kiroshka Katerina
Published: June 2023

UNSTRUCTURED

To assess the cost-effectiveness of AI technology and advanced imaging with fundus cameras screening compared to the standard ophthalmologist's exam and an ophthalmic exam by a physician's assistant or nurse practitioner technician, for detecting most common aged eye disease AMD, glaucoma, and DR.
Costs were estimated from market prices and actual resource use. Medical system costs per true positive were around $200 for a new patient and $100-$150 for an established patient for ophthalmologist examination annually, costing 45-degrees photos $15 and AI system $35 per patient.
Primary-care screening with AI technology and retinal photographs for AMD, glaucoma and DR is an appropriate and cost-effective alternative to screening by an ophthalmologist in this setting. Ophthalmologists are scarce, primary-care physicians are extremely busy, and large clinics allow fixed equipment costs to be spread across many patients.
Meeting 24-hour Movement Guidelines: Prevalence, Correlates, and Associations with Physical Fitness and Depression Among Adults: A Provincial Surveillance in China (Preprint)
Authors: Duan Yanping , Wang Yanping , Huang Qian , Liang Wei , Shang Borui , Baker Julien S.
Published: June 2023

BACKGROUND

24-hour movement behaviors integrating physical activity (PA), sedentary behavior (SB) and sleep are important components influencing adults’ health. Canadian 24-hour movement guidelines for adults were launched in 2020. However, there is little evidence on the prevalence and correlates of guideline compliance and its associations with health outcomes among Chinese adults.

OBJECTIVE

The purposes of this study were to investigate the prevalence and correlates of meeting 24-hour movement guidelines among Chinese adults and examine the association of meeting guidelines with physical fitness and depression among Chinese adults.

METHODS

A total of 7059 adults (45.73 ± 14.56 years, age range: 20-79 years, 52% female) were recruited by stratified cluster random sampling from the latest provincial health surveillance of Hubei China between 25-Jul and 19-Nov 2020. Participants completed a self-reported questionnaire including movement behaviors (PA, SB, and sleep), depressive symptoms, and demographic information. In addition, eight objectively measured physical fitness tests (body mass index, waist-hip ratio, body fat percentage, vital capacity, handgrip strength, flexibility, balance, and choice reaction time) were conducted. SPSS 28.0 was used to perform Generalized Linear Mixed Models analysis to examine the correlates and associations.

RESULTS

25.54% of participants met all three movement guidelines, while 48.62% met only two of them, 23.10% met one of them and 2.75% met none. Participants, who were older adults, unmarried, and living near PA facilities were more likely to meet all three movement guidelines. Meeting more movement guidelines was associated with less likelihood of depression, while no significant associations were observed between meeting 24-hour movement guidelines and physical fitness indicators.

CONCLUSIONS

This is the first study to investigate the prevalence and correlates of compliance with 24-hour movement guidelines among Chinese adults, and its associations with physical fitness and depression. Future efforts aiming to encourage adults to meet movement guidelines should consider detailed demographic differences. Future interventions should be applied to enhance adults’ overall 24-hour movement behaviors further mitigating their depressive symptoms.

Authors: Nájera González Areli , Marceleño Flores Susana , Chávez-Dagostino Rosa María , Nájera González Oyolsi , Carrillo González Fátima Maciel
Published: June 2023

Objetivo: diseñar un proceso prospectivo participativo con base en los escenarios SSP para estimar la vulnerabilidad futura al cambio climático de un territorio costero. Tomando como caso de estudio San Blas, Nayarit; una zona rural con actividad turística en el Pacífico mexicano. 
Diseño metodológico: con base en los principios de prospectiva territorial, el método consistió en dos secciones. La elaboración de un diagnostico prospectivo en donde se presenta un modelo para analizar la vulnerabilidad territorial histórica, actual y su tendencia. Y el diseño de un proceso prospectivo participativo, que fue compuesto por la selección de actores clave, la delimitación espacio-temporal, elección de escenarios y dinámica del taller prospectivo. 
Resultados: de acuerdo con el diagnostico; la vulnerabilidad de la zona aumentó de nivel bajo a nivel medio entre 2000 y 2019, y se proyecta que incremente a nivel medio-alto en 2038. Las zonas más vulnerables resultaron las cubiertas por ecosistemas estuarinos y manglares. De la propuesta metodológica de prospectiva participativa se presenta una guía en formato cuadernillo de trabajo, en donde se describe a detalle la dinámica para conducir el taller abordando tres escenarios SSP. 
Limitaciones de la investigación: la principal limitante fue la escasez de información a nivel local para analizar cada uno de los componentes de vulnerabilidad en el diagnóstico prospectivo. La aplicación de la propuesta metodológica del taller prospectivo y sus resultados serán motivo de análisis en una segunda fase de la investigación. 
Hallazgos: la actividad turística orientado al ecoturismo puede ser el vehículo que conduzca la propuesta y aplicación de estrategias de adaptación para reducir la vulnerabilidad de la zona al cambio climático.

Abstract: The by-product of sugar industry- distillery spent wash, is the unwanted residual liquid waste generated during alcohol production and pollution caused by it is one of the most critical environmental issue because it poses a serious threat to the water quality in several regions around the globe. Despite standards imposed on effluent quality, untreated or partially treated effluent very often finds access to water courses. The ever-increasing generation of distillery spent wash on the one hand and stringent legislative regulations of its disposal on the other has stimulated the need for developing new technologies to process this effluent efficiently and economically. This paper presents an overview on experimental study on usage of spent wash in concrete with various percentages and its alternative use in various sectors. The contribution of distillery waste i.e. spent wash on the mechanical properties of concrete is high compared to conventional concrete.

Abstract: Indian Municipal waste management remains a main problem in urban areas, leading to consequential health and environmental issues. Therefore, trash bins are placed in many places to handle municipal solid waste, but dustbins can overfill and spread around the area, spoiling the environment, and creating disturbance to the public. Therefore, a real-time remote monitoring system is required that warns the level of garbage to the firm of waste management or municipality. The proposed structure consists of an ultrasonic sensor to measure the garbage level in the dustbin. ESP32 is a microcontroller board with integrated Wi-fi and Bluetooth that controls the system operation. It is supposed to display messages on the IOT Cloud server regarding the garbage level of the dustbin, whether it is full or empty, so the municipality or respective garbage monitoring company can take required actions in time. Also, there will be a Solar panel to generate the power required to run the system. Furthermore, a system is proposed to contribute to improving the efficiency of solid waste disposal management.

Abstract: Waste handling and management is the major problem faced by countries in the modern era. Concrete demolition waste has been one of the sources of creating environmental pollution. There have been many strength and durability studies taking place to analyze the concrete made with fine aggregate which has been recycled from old concrete structures and proved high strength compared to the concrete made with new materials. Those research works are limited in analyzing finer divisions of the concrete made with the aggregates which have been recycled. This paper concentrates on the applications of recycled Fine Aggregate (RFA) as a partial replacement instead of the fine aggregates available naturally to prepare the concrete. With a view to the above needs, the present study is aimed to determine the strength properties of RFA concrete depending on the various content of RFA and to compare them to the strength properties of concrete made with natural fine aggregates (NFA). Fine aggregates of high FM of 2.6 were used for recycled and natural concrete. After performing the compressive strength test with partial replacements of 30%, 40%, 50%,60%,70% and 80%of RFA with NFA, it was found that concrete made with the following replacements RFA has less strength than concrete made with NFA but with not much difference. So, RFA can be used as a replacement for NFA in concrete production. In addition, partial replacement of RFA can be used in structures of less importance such as temporary walls, the base of roads, light traffic roads, pavements in college campuses etc.

Le Musée acadien de l’Université de Moncton (MAUM) est gratuit pour toute personne étudiante, pourtant il reste sous-visité par cette population. J’ai décidé d’y amener les personnes inscrites au cours ‘Loisir et culture’. Les données recueillies ont permis, via notre musée universitaire, d’évaluer le processus pédagogique mis en place qui comporte un travail approfondi sur les musées. Je présente ici comment le musée est valorisé dans le cadre des activités pédagogiques mettant l’accent sur les bénéfices retirés par les personnes étudiantes. Je souligne l’impact identitaire sur certaines jeunes personnes acadiennes et leur nouveau regard sur la richesse de leur patrimoine culturel, à travers les exercices et leurs commentaires. Le Musée acadien offre une grande variété de situations d’apprentissage autour desquelles des activités pédagogiques peuvent être organisées, comme : la muséographie, les œuvres exposées, la gestion des collections, les réserves, la communication, la promotion ainsi que des collaborations externes. Une approche transversale et écosystémique permet de joindre l’intérêt de chaque personne quel que soit sa formation de base. Elle invite les jeunes à la découverte du monde culturel et à l’ouverture vers l’autre, amenant ainsi à une meilleure compréhension de l’importance de l’inclusion et du vivre ensemble.

Gunung Padang adalah objek wisata di Cianjur yang merupakan kawasan megalitikum tertua di Indonesia dan bahkan di dunia. Namun kondisi pengetahuan para komunitas pemandu wisata terhadap objek wisata, sangat terbatas dan hanya mengacu pada pengetahuan turun temurun. Atribut wisata yang ada di Kawasan wisata juga sangat minim. Sejak adanya pandemi Covid19 kunjungan wisata menjadi sepi, sehingga pengembangan tema dan atribut wisata diharapkan dapat meningkatkan nilai kunjungan wisatanya. Pada kegiatan PKM ini, yang menjadi mitra adalah Yayasan 74 Hafisun Alim dan Pemandu Wisata Gunung Padang. Permasalahan yang ada saat ini, kurangnya pengetahuan panduan wisata (Tour Guide) dan tidak tedapat Atribut wisata seperti; brosure, buku panduan wisata dan Infografis 2 bahasa. Solusinya adalah : Pelatihan Tour Guide umum dan Religi, dan pendampingan dalam penyediaan atribut wisata di pos informasi pemandu wisata secara umum, dan sesuai tema khusus wawasan religi di Gunung Padang. Penyediaan atribut wisata yang disambut dengan baik oleh mitra, meningkatkan semangat dari Pokdarwis untuk terus memperkenalkan situs ini kepada dunia.

WIN55,212-2(WIN) is a cannabinoid receptor agonist. We previously found
that WIN may induce cell cycle arrest and inhibit the proliferation and
migration of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) BEL7402 cells. Auranofin
(AUR) is an FDA-approved drug against rheumatoid arthritis that is
currently enrolled in clinical trials as an anti-tumor agent. However,
the precise functions of WIN and/or AUR on HCC carcinogenesis remain
unexplored. In the present study, we aimed to study the synergistic
antitumor effects and the associated underlying mechanisms of AUR/WIN
combination therapy on HCC. We showed that WIN/AUR cotreatment
synergistically suppressed HepG2 cell proliferation, migration and
invasion. Western blot assay found that WIN/AUR cotreatment
synergistically downregulated the expression of Bcl-2, cyclin D1,
β-catenin, c-myc, and MMP-9 and increased the expression of Bip and
ATF4, further activating Caspase3, Caspase 8, Caspase 9 and PARP
cleavage. Cotreatment of AUR/WIN also arrested cell cycle at the G1
phase and induced senescence and apoptosis, evidenced by an increase in
the number of SA-β-gal senescent cells and loss of
mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) in AUR/WIN-cotreated cells.
Luciferase reporter assay found that the activation of Wnt/β-catenin
signaling was significantly suppressed upon WIN/AUR cotreatment in
comparison with other groups. Moreover, WIN/AUR cotreatment
synergistically inhibited tumor growth in subcutaneous xenograft mice
models. In conclusion, our results demonstrated WIN/AUR-mediated
apoptosis and suppressive effects on cell growth, migration and invasion
were associated with Bcl-2 downregulation, endoplasmic reticulum (ER)
stress and caspase activation, leading to downregulation of
Wnt/β-catenin signaling. Therefore, WIN/AUR cotreatment may present
promising combination therapy for the treatment of HCC.

Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) is the most common pediatric cancer
and the most common subtype of pediatric leukemia, the high toxicity,
relapse and refractory disease of many patients require the development
of novel therapeutic approaches. New therapeutic approaches such as
targeted immunotherapy in combination with Hematopoietic Stem Cell
Transplantation (HSCT) must be taken in count to revolutionize the
management of numerous ALL subtypes, improve treatment outcomes and
maintain low toxicity without losing the effectiveness of the treatment.
We evaluated a novel therapeutic approach in Mexico, the outpatient
administration of blinatumomab infusion in patients with
relapsed/refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia (R/R ALL).
Mortality of Ash in Forested Riparian Zones Drives Prolonged ET Depression and Hydric Soil Formation

Published: June 2023

Emerald ash borer (EAB) ( Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire), an
invasive, phloem-feeding beetle native to Asia, has killed hundreds of
millions of ash ( Fraxinus spp.) trees in the USA and Canada
since it was detected in southeast Michigan in 2002. Consistently high
mortality of black ash ( Fraxinus nigra) and green ash ( F.
pennsylvanica) is a particular concern given the role both species play
in regulating soil moisture and shallow groundwater levels in riparian
forests. Here we present the first longitudinal observations documenting
hydrologic effects resulting from EAB-caused ash mortality in a riparian
zone at the W.K. Kellogg Experimental Forest in southwest Michigan. From
2018-2022, we monitored soil moisture, depth to groundwater and
meteorological observation at 15-min intervals throughout the growing
season in two adjacent plots (gap, forest) in the Augusta Creek riparian
zone. We estimated groundwater evapotranspiration (ET )
using a groundwater level fluctuation (WLF) method. Significant
differences in volumetric soil moisture content (16-26% higher in the
gap than forest), average depth to water (10 cm in the gap vs 70 cm
below land surface in the forest) and mean daily ET
(0.6 in the gap vs 3.0 mm per day in the forest) persisted across four
growing seasons. Prolonged saturation of the near surface is driving
hydric soil formation, contributing to an ecosystem regime shift from
forested riparian to herb and sedge-dominated wetland. These changes
have important implications for riparian zone ecosystem services
including nutrient cycling, sediment transport, and greenhouse gas
emissions, especially when considering the extent of ash mortality
already sustained in much eastern North America.
