Is Brain Natriuretic Peptide specific for the left atrial appendage?
Authors: Babayiğit Erdi , Karadeniz Andaç , Gorenek Bulent
Published: March 2023

Dear Editor, We read with great interest the article recently published
in Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, “Left atrial appendage
dimension predicts elevated brain natriuretic peptide in nonvalvular
atrial fibrillation” by Cook JA. et al. The authors
have studied the relation between Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP)
elevations and left atrial appendage measurements in patients who
referred for left atrial appendage (LAA) occlusion in patients with
nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (AF). BNP release is largely from the
ventricles and it is also dynamically dependent on myocardial stretch
and fluid volume status. However, it seems difficult to prove that BNP
levels are directly related to the LAA measurements. Correlating BNP
elevation only with left atrial or LAA measurements means ignoring left
ventricular strain. Considering that these patients were referred for
LAA occlusion and had a high CHA DS
VASc score, and not taking heart failure with
preserved ejection fraction into account may lead to errors in
interpreting the results. Moreover, it should be evaluated that the left
atrial appendage may undergo remodeling or enlargement as a result of
the left ventricular end-diastolic pressure increase. In this case,
although the study is valuable, remains a cross-sectional study and a
snapshot of the correlation of BNP and LAA. Second, it should be
disclosed whether patients have paroxysmal or chronic AF and how long
the patient has had AF. A relationship was established between LAA
dimensions and BNP in the study, it is essential that the duration of AF
should be considered and subgroup analyses should be evaluated if
possible, since AF has a significant effect on BNP release. We
appreciate this study and believe that a more detailed evaluation
including left ventricular evaluation and prospectively monitored LAA
and BNP would yield more realistic results. In addition, we think that
it would be useful to evaluate midregional pro-A-type natriuretic
(MR-proANP) in LAA studies, which is specific to the left atrial
enlargement and similar physiology to BNP.

Published: March 2023

The quantitative identification of nitrate sources is of great
significance for the control of non-point source pollution and the
comprehensive management of water resources in watersheds. δ
N-NO and δ
O-NO isotopes
combined with the Bayesian isotope mixing model were widely used as
effective methods to identify nitrogen sources. However, previous
studies typically only interpreted and analyzed surface water or
groundwater separately, and the uncertainty analysis and sensitivity
analysis are seldom conducted on the isotope mixing models
simultaneously. In this study, a total of 60 surface water samples and
82 groundwater samples were collected in study area from November 2021
to October 2022, and atmospheric deposition (AD), chemical nitrogen
fertilizer (NF), soil nitrogen (SN), and manure and sewage (M&S) were
determined as the potential nitrate sources. Source identification by
SIAR indicated that the M&S was the main contributor of nitrate to
surface water (mean 38.1%), while NF was the main contributor to
groundwater (mean 39.8%). In April 2022, NF had the largest
contribution to nitrate in surface water (38.3%), followed by SN and
M&S. For nitrate in groundwater, contributions were 25.1% NF, 29.4%
SN, 29.8% M&S, and 15.7% AD. The contribution of nitrate in surface
water and groundwater by SN and NF reached 58% and 64%, respectively.
Thus, optimizing fertilization and irrigation management to improve
nitrogen fertilizer utilization efficiency should be considered in
watershed management. The differences in contribution rates in different
seasons are related to interactions between surface and groundwater. The
uncertainty analysis showed that the greatest uncertainties were in SN
and NF, followed by M&S and AD. Sensitivity analysis showed that the
changes in the nitrate isotopic composition of M&S had the greatest
effect on the results for δ N, whereas only the mean
values of oxygen isotope values of AD had a greater effect on the
results for δ O.
Ribosomal proteins dynamics and its association with actin filaments and local translation in axonal growth cones of dorsal root ganglia neurons
Authors: Hoshi Osamu , Takei Nobuyuki
Published: March 2023

Local translation in growth cones plays a critical role in responses to
extracellular stimuli, such as axon guidance cues. We previously showed
that brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) activates translation and
enhances novel protein synthesis through the activation of mammalian
target of rapamycin (mTOR) complex 1 (mTORC1) signaling in growth cones
of dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons. In this study, we focused on
ribosomal protein S6 (RPS6), ribosomal protein P0/1/2 (RPP0/1/2), and
actin filaments to determine how localization of ribosomal proteins
changes with overall protein synthesis induced by BDNF and nerve growth
factor (NGF). Our quantitative analysis using immunocytochemistry and
super-resolution microscopy indicated that RPS6, RPP0/1/2, and actin
tend to colocalize in the absence of stimulation, and that these
ribosomal proteins tend to dissociate from actin when local protein
synthesis is promoted. We propose that this is because the ribosome is
turned into an actively translating ribosome (polysome) by the protein
synthesis machinery. This study further clarifies the role of
cytoskeletal components in local translation and will inform the study
of neurological disorders associated with cytoskeletal disruption.

OBJECTIVE

While there is evidence that functioning, or ability to perform daily life activities, can be adversely influenced by type 1 diabetes, the impact of acute fluctuations in glucose levels on functioning is poorly understood.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS

Using dynamic structural equation modeling, we examined whether overnight glucose (coefficient of variation[CV], percent time <70 mg/dL, percent time >250 mg/dL) predicted seven next-day functioning outcomes (mobile cognitive tasks, accelerometry-derived physical activity, self-reported activity participation) in adults with type 1 diabetes. We examined mediation, moderation, and whether short-term relationships were predictive of global patient-reported outcomes.

RESULTS

Overall next-day functioning was significantly predicted from overnight CV (P = 0.017) and percent time >250 mg/dL (P = 0.037). Pairwise tests indicate that higher CV is associated with poorer sustained attention (P = 0.028) and lower engagement in demanding activities (P = 0.028), time <70 mg/dL is associated with poorer sustained attention (P = 0.007), and time >250 mg/dL is associated with more sedentary time (P = 0.024). The impact of CV on sustained attention is partially mediated by sleep fragmentation. Individual differences in the effect of overnight time <70 mg/dL on sustained attention predict global illness intrusiveness (P = 0.016) and diabetes-related quality of life (P = 0.036).

CONCLUSIONS

Overnight glucose predicts problems with objective and self-reported next-day functioning and can adversely impact global patient-reported outcomes. These findings across diverse outcomes highlight the wide-ranging effects of glucose fluctuations on functioning in adults with type 1 diabetes.

In situ and layer-by-layer grain size estimation in additively manufactured metal components using femtosecond laser ultrasonics
Authors: Park Seong-Hyun , Yi Kiyoon , Liu Peipei , Choi Gwanghyo , Jhang Kyung-Young , Sohn Hoon
Published: March 2023

Directed energy deposition (DED) is an additive manufacturing technique wherein a focused thermal energy source and a coaxial powder delivery system are combined for the fabrication of metallic parts. Although rapid progress has been made in DED, the amount of research performed for in situ quality monitoring during fabrication is limited. Grain size monitoring during DED is particularly important because the grain size is directly related to the mechanical strength and stiffness of the final products. In this study, a layer-by-layer grain size estimation technique using femtosecond laser ultrasonics is developed for in situ monitoring during DED. The proposed technique employs fully noncontact and nondestructive testing for grain size estimation and uses the relationship between the laser-induced ultrasonic waves and the grain size. In addition to the in situ operation of the technique, spatial resolution in the micrometer range was achieved. The developed technique was validated using Ti-6Al-4V specimens fabricated by DED. The results of the quantitative grain sizes measured by the developed method were consistent with those measured through independent metallography conducted after the completion of DED.
The Relationship between Leadership Behaviour and Firm Performance in the Ready-Made Garments Industries of Bangladesh
Authors: Tareque Mohammad Alam , Islam Nazrul
Published: March 2023

This research examined the relationship between leaders' behaviour, emotional intelligence, competitive advantage, firm strategy and performance. The three-factor model of leadership behaviour linking competitive advantage and firm performance is a unique model tested in this research. This study is also one of the first attempts which survey 400 leaders from Bangladeshi companies to test this model in a developing country. Quantitative analyses revealed that relation-oriented behaviour significantly relates to firm performance through competitive advantage. The task and change-oriented leadership behaviours revealed a weaker version of the same association trend. The research also showed that emotional intelligence moderated the relationship between leader behaviours and competitive advantage, and firm strategy moderated the relationship between competitive advantage and firm performance. Results favoured a three-factor model that included change-oriented behaviour as the extension of the classic two-factor leadership behaviour model. This information will benefit organisations in several ways. Theoretically, it will fill the gap existing in the leadership literature. Practically, it will provide current leaders with the understanding required to enhance their leadership behaviour and use it to increase firm performance. Most importantly, firms may use these findings to design professional leadership training, improve employees' emotional intelligence, prepare future leaders, and sustain competitive advantage.

Теория интересов: право и организация охраны здоровья
Authors: Зарубина Анна , Тихомиров Алексей
Published: March 2023

Осознание потребностей порождает интересы. Интересы объективируют потребности. Интересом правит воля. Интересы детерминируют социальные роли. Охрана здоровья, медицинская помощь – не интерес, не цель, а средство – удовлетворения интереса, восстановления возможностей пользоваться благами жизни. Законодательство призвано интересы не просто суммировать, а рационально сопоставлять в пределах правомерности и отграничивать от противоправных, конфигурируя однонаправленные и встречные интересы и препятствуя нелегальным, противоположным. В сфере охраны здоровья государство удовлетворяет интересы общества, т.е. совокупные интересы граждан, но без подмены интересов граждан – вместе или по отдельности – интересами государства.

Awareness of needs generates interests. Interests objectify needs. Interest is ruled by will. Interests determine social roles. Health care, medical aid is not an interest, not a goal, but a means to satisfy interest, restore opportunities to enjoy the benefits of life. The legislation is designed not just to summarize interests, but to rationally compare them within the limits of legality and distinguish them from illegal ones, configuring unidirectional and counter interests and preventing illegal opposites. In the field of health care, the state satisfies the interests of society, i.e. the aggregate interests of citizens, but without replacing the interests of citizens – together or separately – with the interests of the state.

It was also revealed that short sleep duration, excessive use of technology, parenting and social hindered the preventive practice of obesity. Chi-square analysis showed that the calculated value 28.005a was greater than the critical value 7.81 (p-value = 0.000), thus the null hypothesis was rejected. This shows that there is a significant correlation between level of awareness of the causes of obesity and the educational level of young women.

Conclusion: Nurses and midwives should educate young women about obesity during health consultations and prenatal clinic appointments in other to elevate their awareness to enhance their preventive practices

Research subject. The deposits of the Uk Formation of the Upper Riphean (Karatavian) in the Alatau anticlinorium (Southern Urals) were studied in the section of the right bank of Basu river and its tribute Manaysu located to the east of the Kulmas settlement.

Results. The structure of the sections of Uk Formation along Basu River (Kulmas) in the Alatau anticlinorium and its stratotype at the Yuryzan river near town of Ust-Katav in the Suleimanovo anticline is identical: the Lower Uk Subformation is represented by irregular alternation of sandstones, siltstones and shales with rare layers of limestones and dolomites with Patomella kelleri Raaben and Tungussia bassa Kryl. stromatolites and microphytolites of the IV complex, while the Upper Uk – by limestones with Linella ukka Kryl. and Linella simica Kryl. stromatolites and microphytolites of the IV complex. However, the sandstones and siltstones of the Lower Uk Subformation in the stratotype at the Yuryuzan river (Ust-Katav) are polymictic, while in the reference section along Basu river (Kulmas) they have mostly quartz composition. These petrographic features may be a result of different provenance. In the rocks of Uk Formation in the Basu section (Kulmas), the epigenetic processes (dolomitization and silicification) are strongly manifested. In the limestones of the Upper Uk Formation the caverns and fractures along with layers enriched by a bitumen (?) are observed.

Conclusions. The reference section of the Uk Formation along the river Basu (Kulmas) is proposed as a hypostratotype, in which the deposits of the lower subformation of the Uk suite are most fully represented in comparison with the stratotype along the river Yuryuzan (Ust-Katav). Cavernous-fractured limestones of the Uk Formation with layers enriched by a bitumen (?), may be regarded as an interesting search object for hydrocarbons, taking into account that a large hydrocarbon deposit has been discovered in the silicified cavernous-fractured dolomites of Kamovskaya Formation of the Upper Riphean of the Siberian platform.

Research subject. Oil-bearing deposits of the Middle-Upper Devonian in the Ayazovo oil field located in the north-east of Bashkiria.

Materials and methods. A detailed description and subdivision of the section were carried out based on the borehole cores of the Rustamovskaya area using biostratigraphic and lithofacial analysis, micropalaeontology of spores and conodonts.

Results. The sediments of the Pashian, Timan, Sargaevo, Domanic and Mendym horizons are identified, their lithofacial features are described, and sedimentation conditions are determined.

Conclusions. The studied succession of the Devonian sediments demonstrates cyclical changes in terrigenous and carbonate shelf sedimentation environments caused by eustatic sea level change and complicated by the tectonic events associated with the formation of uplifts and troughs of the Kama-Kinel system at the end of the Frasnian.
A Study on the Symbolism of Vocabulary in the Altai Folklore
Authors:   Institute for Russian and Altaic Studies, CBNU, Lee Kyung Hee
Published: March 2023

The purpose of this study is to analyze the characteristics of Altai tales and the symbolic meanings of words in Altai tales. Altai refers to the Altai Republic in the Russian Federation, located in South Siberia. Altaians - the common name of a kind of historically formed union of six autochthonous Turkic-speaking ethnic groups. Altai folklore is the traditional beliefs, customs, and stories of a community, passed through the generations by word of mouth Altai people. Altai folk tales are life stories that reflect the traditions, belief systems, religions, and cosmic views of the peoples who have lived around the Altai Mountains since ancient times. Altai folk tales have similar themes or modified contents found in other regions and peoples, but reflect the uniqueness of the Altai peoples and culture. In Altai folktale texts, color words that symbolically express the main character and surrounding objects, as well as names of people and numbers using color words, are found. These vocabularies are linearly combined with other vocabularies and function as text components unique to narrative texts.
A Diachronic Study on the Formation and Development of Journalistic Style in Russian
Authors:   Institute for Russian and Altaic Studies, CBNU, Kim Yong Wha
Published: March 2023

Among the characteristics of literary language summarized as multifunctionality, super-dialecticity, normativity, refinement, and differentiation of the functional style, the last is formed in the final stage of literary language development. The functional stylistic system consists of ordinary-colloquial style, academic style, official-business style, artistic-literary style, and journalistic style, and among them, this paper focuses on the journalistic style. First, the first printed newspaper in Russia, Peter's Vedomosti (PV) in the early 18th century and Moscow Vedomosti(MV) in the mid-19th century are compared and analyzed and the differences in newspaper language before and after the formation of a journalistic style, i.e., linguistic distinguishing characteristics between PV and MV, are clearly presented in the aspect of journalistic style. This study on journalistic style as one of the functional styles of literary language will lead to further research on media language beyond the framework of modern Russian literary language and on the correlation between media language, journalism style, and literary language.

Suppression of some IncRNAs and Invasion by Boric Acid Treatment in Human Pancreatic Cancer
Authors: EROĞLU GÜNEŞ Canan
Published: March 2023

Objective: It was aimed to investigate the effects of boric acid on some lncRNAs and invasion in PANC-1 and MIA PaCa-2 pancreatic cancer cells. Materials and Methods: The effects of boric acid on cell viability and invasion were investigated using XTT test and invasion chambers, respectively. lncRNA H19 and UCA1 expressions were evaluated in pancreatic cancer using TCGA data. Its effects on expressions of these lncRNAs and invasion genes were determined by qRT-PCR analysis. Results: The IC50 doses of boric acid were calculated as 14.25 mM in PANC-1 cells and 15.71 mM in MIA PaCa-2. TCGA data showed that H19 and UCA1 expressions were elevated in pancreatic cancer. H19 and UCA1 lncRNA levels were decreased with boric acid treatment. In addition, boric acid increased CDH1 and TIMP1 in both cell lines. However, it suppressed CDH2 expression. Boric acid increased TIMP2 in PANC-1 cells and TIMP3 expression in MIA PaCa-2 cells. In the invasion test, boric acid significantly suppressed invasion in both cells. Conclusions: Boric acid suppressed H19 and UCA1 expressions, which were found to be high in pancreatic cancer. In addition, it showed an anti-invasive effect by changing the expressions of genes that are important in invasion.
