Published: May 2022

A two year field experiment was conducted at the Rajasthan College of Agriculture, Udaipur during kharif season of 2018 and 2019 to study the effect of integrated nutrient management on yield attributes, yield, protein content of maize and monetary returns. The ten treatments were evaluated in randomized block design with three replications. The application of 75% RDF through chemical fertilizer + 25% RDF through vermicompost + Azotobacter + VAM produced the highest grain 4.26 t ha-1 and stover 6.47 t ha-1 yield of maize and enhanced the overall productivity of maize by increasing number of cob per plant, cob length, weight per cob, number of grain per cob, test weight. Protein content of grains increased by 33.2% and 2.85% with application of 75% RDF through chemical fertilizer + 25% RDF through vermicompost + Azotobacter + VAM as compared to control and 100% chemical fertilizer, respectively. The highest net returns of 65377.4 Rs ha-1 with benefit cost ratio 2.27 was recorded in the plot fortified with 75% RDF through chemical fertilizer + 25% RDF through vermicompost + Azotobacter + VAM. The total uptake of nutrients (N, P and K) by maize was significantly higher under the treatment receiving 75% RDF through chemical fertilizer + 25% RDF through vermicompost + Azotobacter + VAM. The minimum values of all the parameters were recorded under control.

The experiment was conducted at ICAR-IIVR, Varanasi (U.P.) to examine the variability of parents, diallel derived progenies and identify the suitable contributing lines for yield and desired horticultural traits to improve productivity in sponge gourd. Sixty three diverse genotypes were evaluated initially and out of these 10 lines (VR-11, EC- 381651, NSG-28, VR-15, VR-156, VR-104, PusaSupriya, VR-44, VR-103 and VR- 116) were selected as parents and which were then crossed in a diallel design without reciprocals during 2006-07. The forty five F1s along with ten parents were evaluated in randomized block design with three replications for horticultural traits and compared to standard variety PusaChikani. The data were collected on 12 agro-morphological characters. As per mean value, parents like EC-381651 (days to 1st flowering of female bud, days to first harvesting, vine length, fruits per vine), VR-116 (node to emerges of 1st female bud), VR-11 (fruit length and, fruit weight) and VR-156 (yield per vine)expressed stable performance for different horticultural traits in this crop.A wide range of variation in the estimates and heterosis (Mid Parent and Better Parent)observed positive (yield) and negative (earliness) direction, which expressed usefulness of parents in development of hybrids.Days to early emergence of male and female flower at lower node should be considered for yield improvement. The parents which contributed significantly in expression of heterosis are VR-10, VR-103, EC381651VR-11 and VR-156 for all the traits under studies.

Published: May 2022

The present investigation was undertaken to find the seasonal incidence of major insect pests of brinjal during kharif 2019 at the Research farm, College of Agriculture, Tikamgarh (M.P.). The results revealed that the incidence of sucking insect pests viz., whitefly (Bemisia tabaci) started from last week of September (39th standard week) with a population of 4.89/ 3 leaves and reached to a peak level during the second week of October (41st standard week) with a population of 8.96/ 3 leaves whereas jassid (Amrasca biguttula biguttula) started from last week of September (39th standard week) with a population of 0.80/ 3 leaves and reached to a peak level during the second week of October (41st standard week) with a population of 1.29/ 3 leaves. The incidence of shoot and fruit borer started from second week of October (41st standard week) with 4.0% shoot infestation and reached its peak during the second week of November (46th standard week) with 20.0% shoot infestation. Highest fruit infestation of 50% was recorded during the first week of December (49th standard week). Correlation studies showed that among the various abiotic factors, maximum (r= 0.73) and minimum temperature (r= 0.79) exhibited highly significant positive correlation and morning relative humidity exhibited significant negative correlation (r= -0.56) with whitefly population. In case of jassid population, maximum temperature exhibited significant positive correlation (r= 0.59) and minimum temperature exhibited highly significant positive correlation (r= 0.79) with jassid population. The incidence of shoot and fruit borer showed significant negative correlation with minimum temperature and rainfall (r = -0.77, -0.56, respectively).

A field experiment was carried out at Research Farm, College of Agriculture, Indore (Madhya Pradesh) during winter season 2020-21 to study the impact of organic and inorganic fertilizers on growth, yield and quality of garlic. The experiment comprising of organic-cum-inorganic sources of nutrients was laid out in randomized block design with three replications. Results revealed that application of 50% RDF along with 2.5 t VC ha-1 + 1.5 t PM ha-1 brought about maximum growth and yield-attributing parameters ( plant height 87.4 cm, leaves 10.8 / plant, leaf length 51.3 cm, leaf width 2.10 cm, LAI 2.42, neck thickness 1.55 cm, bulb weight 42.90 g, bulb diameter 5.78 cm and cloves 27.5/ bulb) as well as bulb yield ( 103.54 q ha-1), net income ( Rs. 230630 ha-1) and B: C ratio ( 3.88). The second best treatment was 50 % RDF + 5 t VC ha-1 with 98.24 q ha-1 yield, and net income of Rs. 214980 ha¬-1. Similarly, the maximum value of TSS (40.15 oBrix) was recorded under the 50 % RDF + 2.5 t VC + VC + 1.5 t PM ha-1. The overall trend indicated that combined application of VC and PM was found superior than their separate application along with RDF.

Authors:   Department of Botany, 2Department of Plant Breeding and Genetics, Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana 141004, KAUR HARPREET
Published: May 2022

An experiment was conducted during two consecutive years to study the effect of planting times (15 October, 5 November and 25 November) and cultivars differing for growth habits (BJC-13-1, BJC-13-2, BJC-13-3, BJC-13-4) newly developed determinate type and (PC-5 indeterminate variety) on phenology and physiological traits of African sarson (Brassica carinata A. Braun). The experiment was laid out in split plot design with three replications keeping planting times in main plot and genotypes in sub-plots. Planting time had a significant influence on both phenology and physiological traits of African sarson. The early sown crop took less number of days (66) for flowering while late sown crop took more number of days (79). There was drastic reduction in flowering period (20.8days), siliquing duration (23.3days) and reproductive phase(27.2days). Early planted (15 October) cultivars intercepted more PAR, higher LAI and SPAD-chlorophyll values resulting in higher yield. The interactive effects of planting dates and the cultivars were significant (p < 0.05) for most of the features, which showed variable trends for the changes in the cultivars in response to planting dates. In all the cultivars, there was considerable deterioration in most of the studied traits due to delayed planting. Seed yield had positive association with siliquae duration (0.436), reproductive phase (0.426), SPAD (0.540*) and LAI (0.701**) with first planting (15 October) whereas with late planting (5 November) correlation existed between seed yield and LAI (0.073) and PAR interception (0.086) while with only flowering duration (0.772**) with 25 November sowing.

Published: May 2022

Sinemurian ostracodes from the Lusitanian Basin (western Portugal, Iberian Peninsula) were studied using twelve samples from the marl-limestone succession of the Coimbra Formation at S. Pedro de Moel, north of Lisbon. The detailed taxonomical study identified 11 genera and 14 species, among which 3 are new species: Phraterfabanella boomeri Cabral and Colin n. sp., Klieana? coimbraensis Cabral and Colin n. sp. and “Klinglerella” roselinae Cabral and Colin n. sp.. The recognized ostracode species are particularly similar to those described from the uppermostHettangian-Sinemurian offshore Southwest Ireland (Fastnet Basin) and France (Normandy, Central France and Quercy). Overall, the assemblages include four brackish species (one clearly dominant) and ten marine species. The paleoecological analysis of the assemblages allowed a detailed paleoenvironmental reconstruction, reflecting frequent variations from brackish to restricted marine to slightly more open marine settings, which is supported by sedimentological and other paleontological data.
The taxonomic position of the Cyprideis species (Ostracoda, Cytheroidea, Cytherideidae) that occurs in Lake Issyk-Kul, N.E. Kyrgystan
Authors: Schornikov Evgenij
Published: May 2022

As a result of detailed comparative-morphological studies of Cyprideis pedashenkoi (Daday 1909), considered by many authors to be synonymous with Cyprideis torosa (Jones 1850), it is now possible to demonstrate that it is a separate species endemic to Lake Issyk-Kul. Morphologically it is no less variable than C. torosa, can be consistently distinguished from that species by its double (vs. V-shaped) frontal muscle scar, the pronounced fossa-mural nature of the surface sculpture, with punctate sculpture grouped into polygonal fields forming a second-order reticulation, as well as by the proportions of some parts of appendage armature and details of the penis structure.
Comparison of three preservation techniques for slowing dissolution of calcareous nannofossils in organic-rich sediments
Authors: Seefelt Ellen L. , Self-Trail Jean M. , Schultz Arthur P.
Published: May 2022

In an attempt to halt or reduce dissolution of calcareous nannofossils in organic and/or pyrite-rich sediments, three different methods of short-term storage preservation were tested for efficacy: vacuum packing, argon gas replacement, and buffered water. Abundance counts of calcareous nannofossil assemblages over a six month period showed that none of the three preservation methods were consistently effective in reducing assemblage loss due to dissolution. In most cases, the control slides made at the drill site had more abundant calcareous nannofossil assemblages than those slides made from sediments stored via vacuum packing, argon gas replacement, or buffered water. Thin section and XRD analyses showed that in most cases, <1% pyrite was needed to drive the oxidation-reduction reaction that resulted in dissolution, even in carbonate-rich sediments.

Published: May 2022

A stratigraphic section measured in the northern area of Monserrat Island, Baja California Sur, yielded abundant moderate to well-preserved benthic foraminifers, rare planktonic foraminifers, calcareous nannoplankton, and ostracods. Based on both planktonic microfossils, relative age situates the base of the section from the Uppermost Miocene to Lower Pliocene, while the top is Upper Zanclean (around 5.06-3.3 Ma). The abundant benthic foraminifer assemblage is characterized by small tests and a few dominant species, i.e. Bolivinella seminuda, Brizalina subadvena and Brizalina interjuncta. The foraminifers are characterized as low-oxygen-related biofacies; the absence of heavily calcified fauna suggests that oxygen concentration of the bottom water was <0.3 ml/L. The presence of abundant pristine foraminiferal tests typical of an upper bathyal biofacies such as Planulina ornata, along with features considered as adaptations to low-oxygen conditions, suggest that the upper limit of the oxygen minimum zone was shallow, at a water depth of probably around 150m.

The COVID 19 outbreak is wreaking havoc on the world's health. Wearing a face mask in public places and elsewhere is the most effective safety gear. COVID 19 has led governments all around the world to install shutters to prevent the virus from spreading. Wearing a face mask in public settings, according to studies, dramatically minimises the chance of infection. In this study, a machine learning model is used to monitor body temperature and recognize face masks in an intelligent IoT-enabled department. Any shopping mall, hotel, apartment entrance, and so on can employ the proposed approach. As a result, a low-cost and dependable method of using AI and nerves to produce a healthy atmosphere has emerged. The proposed framework was put to the test on the Face. The Massage Acquisition algorithm was created using the Sensor Flow software library. In addition, an unmodified heat sensor is used to monitor the human body temperature. By utilising Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, this proposed programme can get users to COVID 19.

Security technology is important to security, but the practices of the people who develop, integrate, evaluate, configure, maintain, and use that technology are more important; indeed, these practices are the foundation of technical security. We argue that the flexibility of virtual environments will play a critical role in many cyber security related aspects. Problems like the assessment of newly devised intrusion detection techniques, the evaluation of skills of cyber defense team members, the evaluation of the disruptive effects caused by the diffusion of new malware, are just few examples of issues that cannot be directly addressed in production systems even though they require realistic operating environments in order to be suitably performed.

Authors: O. K. Bodunwa , A.I. Adewole , S. Ayodele
Published: May 2022

The probability distribution that best describes the Nigeria economic growth rate from year 1960-2019 was investigated. The secondary data obtained from www.macrotrends.net on Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in other to measure the Economic Growth Rate of Nigeria was used. Six theoretical probability distributions were fitted using Normal distribution, Weibull distribution, Pareto distribution, Cauchy distribution, Gamma distribution, lognormal distribution. The Weibull distribution fitted the data as confirmed by the Kolmogorov Smirnov goodness of fit test and the best fit distribution was selected using the Akaike Information Criteria, Bayes Information Criteria. Probability forecast was done using the best fit probability distribution. This shows that the probability of obtaining an increase in the value of economic growth rate in less than 5 years in Nigeria is 8% which is highly low. Also, the probability of obtaining an increase in the value of Economic Growth rate in less than 10 years in Nigeria is 14% which is also low. Lastly, the probability of obtaining an increase in the value of economic growth rate above 10 years in Nigeria is 85% which is high. Meaning that before we can have
a meaningful increment in our economic growth in Nigeria is after ten years of this study

Published: May 2022

Majority of sub-Saharan countries have restricted access to potable water supply, leaving them with the option of utilizing natural water bodies for their domestic chores which are polluted with advance stages of the schistosome parasite. This study was investigated to determine the water contacts usage among school pupil in Abuleoriowo and AbuleTitun along Oyan Dam in Ogun State, Nigeria. A structured questionnaire was employed in collecting data of school pupil of 0-19 and their house hold. Result from the study indicates that schistosomiasis is endemic in the study communities with a high risk to source of 35 (46.7) % and 38 (50.7) % in Abule-Titin and Abule-Oriowo respectively. There was no significant difference between male and female, the result shows that 40(53.3%) females and 37(49.3%) male were exposed to water contact activities. Children are being vulnerable to Schistosomiasis as consequences of frequent water contact which affect the schistosomiasis control in school minor in the study areas. The communities living in Schistosome endemic area should be educated on important role of improved water, sanitation, and hygiene as pivotal to sustained intervention for the mitigation of schistosomiasis, whereas attitudes, and practices of water contact among school children should be discourage through community sensitization in order to mitigate their passive vulnerability
to infective water.

Este artigo trata da exposição em quadrinhos intitulada Moldura Sequencial, que é integrada por três conjuntos de molduras. Cada um deles constitui uma composição experimental em quadrinhos que busca diferentes formatos de leitura, significação e recepção para essa linguagem, propondo uma articulação entre diferentes campos, notadamente, a arte sequencial e as artes plásticas. As composições têm como elemento central as intervenções feitas nas molduras e como estas, por sua vez, podem se integrar à linguagem dos quadrinhos e à narrativa. São apresentados registros da exposição e o processo de criação das composições é abordado. A discussão propõe uma análise a partir do que se entende por campo ampliado e campo interno dos quadrinhos e, para tanto, explora a dualidade vinheta/moldura por meio de duas perspectivas: a vinheta como moldura e a moldura como vinheta. Os autores com que este trabalho se relaciona são, respectivamente: Eisner (1989), McCloud (1995), Groensteen (1990) e Broering (2015). Por fim, são mencionados desdobramentos para a continuidade de uma composição autoral em quadrinhos através dos quais é possível, doravante, uma aproximação com outros campos, como a web art.

PATOLOGIAS DERMATOLÓGICAS ASSOCIADAS À COVID-19: UMA REVISÃO INTEGRATIVA
Authors: Santos Juliana Sousa , Cabedo Ana Isabel de Sousa , Santos Giovana Rodrigues , Luz Emanuelle Maria Lima da
Published: May 2022

INTRODUÇÃO: A COVID-19 é uma doença infecciosa provocada pelo novo coronavírus, SARS-Cov-2, iniciou sua disseminação em escala internacional, devido à sua alta transmissão e contágio, em comparação com outras doenças e foi declarada pandêmica no ano de 2020. A doença por ele provocada possui caráter sistêmico, acomete múltiplos órgãos, como pulmões, coração, rins e pele. Tal fato propiciou a procura pela obtenção de informações pertinentes sobre a sua patogenia, em especial, as manifestações cutâneas, que vêm sendo cada vez mais identificadas e descritas. OBJETIVO: Analisar as principais manifestações dermatológicas associadas à COVID-19, uma vez que o seu reconhecimento adequado poderá auxiliar no estabelecimento do diagnóstico, prognóstico e tratamento. MATERIAL E MÉTODOS: Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa, na qual foram pesquisados artigos nas bases de dados SciElo e Pubmed com os descritores: COVID-19; Manifestações cutâneas; Erupções. Foram selecionados seis artigos entre os anos de 2020-2021, nos idiomas de inglês e português. Utilizaram-se como critérios de exclusão artigos que não fossem pertinentes ao tema. RESULTADOS: Essa doença está mais relacionada a quadros de infecção das vias respiratórias superiores. Entretanto, nos últimos meses, diversos estudos comprovaram que ela se apresenta clinicamente de forma heterogênea, afetando vários sistemas de órgãos, podendo originar: síndrome da dificuldade respiratória, diabetes, disfunções neurológicas, dermatológicas, entre outras. Dentre os artigos analisados, a investigação histopatológica de pacientes com SARS-CoV-2 indica achados sugestivos que o vírus tem efeitos diretos sobre a pele. As manifestações cutâneas mais frequentemente apontadas se encontraram em dois grupos, estes foram divididos pelos seus mecanismos patológicos: exantemas virais (causados por resposta imune a moléculas virais) e lesões, como vasculite e vasculopatia trombótica, (consequências sistémicas causadas pelo vírus). Além de tais lesões, outros sinais, ressaltados pelos autores, que podem aparecer são: erupção petequial, urticária, púrpura, acrocianose. CONCLUSÃO: Nota-se, portanto, a importância da identificação e análise das manifestações dermatológicas relacionadas à COVID-19, uma vez que podem contribuir consideravelmente no diagnóstico precoce da infeção, especialmente em casos que apresentam poucos sintomas ou quando não é possível a realização de testes confirmatórios.

Authors: Silva Lorena Lula Oliveira , Almeida Luis Henrique Freitas
Published: May 2022

Introdução: O uso do composto canabidiol extraído da Canabis sativa demonstrou uma significativa eficácia no tratamento de doenças neurodegenerativas, devido a sua capacidade neuroprotetora que é resultado de seu poder antioxidante e sua capacidade anti-inflamatória sobre o sistema imune. A Doença de Alzheimer se faz a de maior prevalência dentre as doenças neurodegenerativas e apresenta em sua clínica, sintomas que reprimem consideravelmente a qualidade de vida dos portadores da doença, causado principalmente pelo progressivo déficit cognitivo, como também dos cuidadores daquele indivíduo. Até o momento ainda não existe um composto farmacêutico convencional com expressiva capacidade de tratamento ou cura. Objetivo: Analisar os dados obtidos sobre uso do canabidiol relacionado ao tratamento da Doença de Alzheimer para definir se o uso da substância pode promover melhora do déficit cognitivo em portadores da doença, para que haja uma maior segurança na decisão da aplicação desse tipo de tratamento e assim promover uma melhor qualidade de vida. Material e métodos: Trata-se de uma revisão bibliográfica onde a busca foi feita a partir de publicações disponíveis para acesso online nas bases de dados Pubmed, Medline, Scielo, Cochrane e Lilacs sem restrição de idiomas. Inicialmente foram recolhidos todos os artigos que apresentavam estudos correlacionando Canabidiol e ou doença de Alzheimer. Em seguida foram excluídos artigos que traziam estudos exclusivo em outros animais e artigos que não apresentavam avaliação dos sintomas citados. Artigos repetidos não foram avaliados novamente. Os estudos variaram entre os anos de 2010 a 2021. Resultados: Foram identificados 255 estudos dos quais, 122 eram repetidos. Em primeira análise, foram excluídos 101 e selecionados 32 artigos para segunda análise mais detalhada. Os 18 estudos incluídos foram publicados entre os anos de 2010 e 2021. Quanto ao tipo de estudo: Dissertação (n = 2), periódico (n = 4), revisão de literatura (n = 2), revisão sistemática (n = 4), documento do governo (n = 4) e editorial (n = 2) Conclusão: A partir das observações obtidas ao longo deste trabalho, conclui-se que a utilização da substância não mostrou eficácia comprovada, porém uma boa alternativa no tratamento dos sintomas analisados, demonstrando a necessidade de maior incentivo ao desenvolvimento científico neste campo de estudo.
TABAGISMO E SUA RELAÇÃO COM A FISIOPATOLOGIA DE NEOPLASIAS
Authors: Mauro Luisa Souza , Mauro Rodrigo Souza , Mauro Solange Seléto de Souza , Mauro Maria Yvone Chaves
Published: May 2022

Introdução: O tabagismo é uma doença crônica provocada pela dependência da nicotica (substância presente em produtos derivados do tabaco). É referido pela Revisão da Classificação Estatística Internacional de Doenças e Problemas Relacionados à Saúde [CID-10] como parte do grupo de transtornos mentais e comportamentais por se tratar da adicção de substância psicoativa (nicotina). Conforme a Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS), o cigarro mata mais de oito milhões de pessoas por ano, sendo sete milhões pelo uso direto e um milhão e duzentas mil pelo uso passivo. Das inúmeras doenças causadas pelo tabagismo, podemos elencar doenças cardiovasculares, acidente vascular encefálico, úlceras gástricas e intestinais, catarata, infertilidade, impotência sexual, osteoporose e principalmente síndromes respiratórias e diversos tipos de câncer. Este estudo justifica-se, a medida em que o tabagismo é o principal fator de risco prevenível de morbimortalidade precoce, sendo considerado um dos principais fatores de risco evitáveis para mais de vinte tipos de neoplasias. Objetivo: Identificar o papel do tabagismo na fisiopatologia de neoplasias. Material e métodos: Foi realizado levantamento bibliográfico nas plataformas SciELO, PubMed e Google Acadêmico, onde foram reconhecidos treze artigos científicos do período de 2001 a 2022 que embasam o tema “Tabagismo e carcinogênese”. Resultados: A formação do câncer é um longo processo em que há alteração na genética e composição das moléculas celulares, causando desequilíbrio em sua funcionalidade e gerando células cancerosas. Existem em torno de 4.700 substâncias tóxicas na composição do cigarro, dentre elas 60 sendo substâncias carcinogênicas. Assim, essas toxinas, associadas a fatores extrínsecos como o hábito e ato de fumar, induzem uma resposta inflamatória dos tecido e podem levar a malignização dessas células e lesões na pele, mucosa e cavidade oral do indivíduo. Conclusão: O principal papel do tabagismo na fisiopatologia das neoplasias é facilitar as alterações e mutações celulares, seja por causas: mecânicas (contato crônico do cigarro com o epitélio dos lábios), físicas (alta temperatura durante a queima da substância) e químicas (substâncias carcinogênicas irritantes e inflamatórias).

Authors: Mauro Rodrigo Souza , Mauro Luisa Souza , Mauro Solange Seléto de Souza , Mauro Maria Yvone Chaves
Published: May 2022

Introdução: O agente causador da Doença de Chagas ou Tripanossomíase Americana é o Trypanosoma cruzi. Em 2006 o Brasil foi capaz de controlar a transmissão vetorial do Triatoma infestans, considerada a principal forma de contaminação da doença. Porém, devido a mudança do padrão epidemiológico, aumento da transmissão oral e colonização de outras espécies de triatomíneos, a doença persistiu e é considerada endêmica em regiões do Norte e Nordeste do Brasil. A prevenção da doença de Chagas relaciona-se diretamente à forma de transmissão, o que justifica a relevância desse estudo. Objetivo: Identificar formas de transmissão e sintomas desta moléstia. Material e métodos: Utilizou-se como método o levantamento bibliográfico nas Plataformas SciELO e Google Acadêmico e como material quinze artigos científicos referentes ao período de 2018 a 2021 que embasam o tema “Doença de Chagas”. Resultados: As formas de transmissão apresentam diferentes períodos de incubação podendo ser: pela mulher chagásica para o feto durante a gravidez ou parto ou por leite materno; por transfusão de sangue ou transplante de órgãos (de 30 a 40 dias); pelo contato de mucosas com material contaminado em laboratório (20 dias); pela ingestão de alimento contaminado (de 3 a 22 dias) e pelo contato direto com as fezes de triatomíneo infectado após a picada (de 4 a 15 dias). A fase aguda pode ser sintomática (causando febre, fastio, fraqueza, edemas no rosto e pernas, manchas avermelhadas na pele, adenomegalia, hepatomegalia, esplenomegalia, manifestações hemorrágicas, aumento do coração) ou não. Pacientes não tratados na fase aguda desenvolvem a fase crônica, que inicialmente pode não apresentar sintomas por longo período ou avançar de forma ativa manifestando complicações cardíacas (como insuficiência cardíaca, cardiomiopatia dilatada associada à miocardite, fibrose e disfunção cardíaca), digestivas (como alterações motoras no trato digestivo superior, megacolon e megaesôfago) ou neurológica (como alterações de psicomotricidade, distúrbios de atenção e do sono, déficit mnemônico, depressão e diplegia cerebral espástica). Conclusão: Os mecanismos de transmissão são transfusional/transplante, vertical/congênita, acidental, oral e vetorial. Após o contágio, o paciente desenvolve a fase aguda, e caso não receba tratamento, manifesta a fase crônica, podendo apresentar complicações cardíacas, digestivas, cardiodigestivas e neurológicas.

INTRODUÇÃO: O hematoma de erupção ou cisto de erupção é considerado uma variação do cisto dentígero em tecido mole, no qual ocorre quando o dente possui resistência ou algum empecilho ao erupcionar, sendo recoberto por um capuz de mucosa gengival e desenvolvendo líquido inflamatório em seu interior. Clinicamente, o hematoma é facilmente diagnosticado, pois apresenta um edema com coloração azul escura ou arroxeada, devido a presença de sangue na cavidade cística. Normalmente não é necessário tratamento, no entanto, quando o hematoma não rompe espontaneamente, causando incômodo ou dor, é realizada intervenção cirúrgica, denominada ulectomia. OBJETIVO: Apresentar uma revisão de literatura sobre a realização da Ulectomia como tratamento do Hematoma de Erupção. MATERIAL E MÉTODOS: Foi realizado um levantamento bibliográfico na Biblioteca Virtual Acadêmica e nas bases de dados Scielo e Google Acadêmico de artigos publicados entre os anos de 2009 à 2021, mediante os descritores: cisto, erupção, hematoma e tratamento. RESULTADOS: A ulectomia consiste em um procedimento cirúrgico onde é realizado a exérese dos tecidos moles que estão impedindo o desenvolvimento da erupção dentária, permitindo um caminho para o dente ocupar sua posição correta na arcada. A execução da técnica é simples e inclui anestesia local seguida de incisão do tecido, exposição da coroa dental, remoção da mucosa gengival que recobre dente e hemostasia. Nos casos em que a coroa dentária também é recoberta por tecido ósseo alveolar, faz-se necessário realizar cuidadosamente a osteotomia. Vale ressaltar que a técnica de ulectomia só pode ser considerada se o estágio de rizogênese do elemento dentário corresponder ao estágio 8 de Nolla, ou seja, se estiver com 2/3 da raiz formada, ou estágio 7 de Nolla, ou seja, se estiver com 1/3 da raiz formada. CONCLUSÃO: Pode-se concluir que, a ulectomia é um procedimento de baixa complexidade e apropriado para casos de hematoma de erupção nos quais a lesão cística não se rompe naturalmente. Portanto, cabe ao cirurgião dentista realizar uma avaliação clínica e radiográfica de forma adequada, a fim de saber indicar corretamente a conduta terapêutica de acordo com cada caso.

Authors:   , Mark Mutesasira muhoozi
Published: May 2022

Introduction: According to the Ministry of Health 2016, the prevalence of safe male circumcision was 0.43. This study assessed the factors affecting the utilization of safe male circumcision among males aged 15-49 years living in the Buremba Town Council, Kazo District. Methodology: A descriptive cross-sectional study design involving the quantitative method of data collection was used in the study carried out in Buremba Town Council. The researcher utilized convenience sampling on 120 respondents from December 2021 to March 2022. The data collection process was for 6 days using self-administered questionnaires which were filled, cleaned, and later analyzed using tables. Results: The study established that 50.83% of the respondents expressed personal fear of pain and the major misconception about SMC was a reduction in sexual performance as reported by 42.5% of respondents. More so, a higher percentage of 94.74% of the circumcised respondents expressed satisfaction with the SMC service provided and 23.33% of the respondents did not recommend SMC to their sons or friends. Conclusion: The major factors affecting the utilization of SMC among males living in Buremba Town Council were mostly knowledge related factors such as knowing the importance of safe male circumcision, misconceptions such as reduction in sexual performance, and personal fears such as pain whereas social-economic factors like cultural influence had the least effect on the study. Recommendations: The parents in Buremba Town Council should adopt early childhood SMC to rule out factors like personal fears and misconceptions that increase with age. The health team of Buremba Town Council should continue male circumcision camps targeting specific age groups such as students in schools around to increase the benefits of SMC like reduced HIV/AIDs risks in the area. Conclusion: There are factors affecting SMC. These need to be considered when offering the services.
El Salvador en 1996
Authors: González Luis Armando , Romano Luis Ernesto , Vargas Henry Marcel
Published: May 2022

En el presente artículo se examinan los principales dinamismos políticos, económicos y sociales que irrumpieron en la realidad salvadoreña durante 1996. Su hipótesis es que durante ese año los mecanismos de intermediación socio-política no desempeñaron a cabalidad el rol que les compete en la actual fase del proceso de instauración democrática que vive el país. Los resultados de la evaluación de 1996 son más bien pesimistas, ya que el divorcio entre economía y sociedad se ha acentuado en la medida en que el sistema político y los partidos han puesto de manifiesto su fragilidad institucional, misma que ha abierto las puertas a la amenaza autoritaria sobre el proceso salvadoreño.

control político de la Asamblea Legislativa
Authors: Martínez Peñate Óscar
Published: May 2022

El Estado de derecho se sustenta en la separación de los poderes ejecutivo, legislativo y judicial. El parlamento figura, independientemente de la interdependencia entre unos y otros, en la cúspide de la pirámide democrática. En este artículo, Martínez Peñate fustiga el modo en que la teoría es "llevada" a la práctica en El Salvador, donde la Asamblea Legislativa no cumple, en algunos casos por la misma ambigüedad de la Constitución política, con las funciones de supervisión y regulación que le comprenden.

Authors: España-Boquera María L. , Champo-Jiménez Omar , Uribe-Salas María D.
Published: May 2022

Introducción: El bosque de Abies de la Reserva de la Biósfera Mariposa Monarca (RBMM) es un ecosistema vital para la mariposa Danaus plexippus L. El estudio de este hábitat es fundamental para entender los efectos globales de la transformación ambiental. Objetivos: Estudiar el impacto del cambio climático de los últimos 20 años (2000-2019) en la RBMM, para (1) describir las variaciones del clima y de la fenología; (2) analizar las relaciones entre LAI (índice de área foliar) y clima; y (3) estimar el enverdecimiento. Materiales y métodos: Se analizaron los valores mensuales de temperatura media y precipitación de la base Giovanni de la NASA y la serie LAI de Copernicus. Con el algoritmo TIMESAT se obtuvieron 11 variables fenológicas por píxel y año y se obtuvo el promedio espacial anual de cada una para cada tipo de cobertura (pino, oyamel, arbustos y cultivos) y el incremento acumulado de la integral extendida (enverdecimiento). Resultados y discusión: La temperatura media aumentó 0.87 °C en 2000-2019. El inicio, mitad y final de estación han ocurrido progresivamente más temprano, y el área foliar acumulada, así como el LAI mínimo y máximo, han aumentado. El enverdecimiento se registró en 53.21 % de la RBMM y el pardeamiento en 33.97 %. Conclusión: El aumento de la temperatura media afecta la fenología de la RBMM, provocando estaciones de crecimiento más largas y enverdecimiento neto de la zona.

The research study aims to assess and raise awareness about pollution at the level of an individual, which would contribute to that individual being more careful and aware of the pollution he does and thus reduce the level of pollution in the future. As part of the project, software for measuring and analyzing the individual environmental footprint will be developed and the target will be the younger generation, students and high school students. All those that have been measured with a smaller environmental footprint and who passed the test and have been trained as part of project seminars and have been appointed ambassadors for environmental protection will receive a certificate. As part of the project, a seminar has been organized for education and to raise awareness about pollution. After all, all the ambassadors have been trained and went to other high schools and there they will hold in the presence of their mentors and the lectures about their experiences and awareness-raising and what are the benefits and show them how to use the online calculator that has been developed as part of the project. Research on the ecological footprint has been realized as an indicator of pollution and preservation of the environment. The project examines the current situation in issues related to energy management (increased energy use, limited reserves of raw materials, global warming, etc.). The findings discuss the results and recommendations are provided.
The Role of TGF-β in the Pathogenesis of Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus
Authors: Triastuti Ike Wahyu , Irawan Roedi , Endaryanto Anang , Rochmah Nur , Faizi Muhammad
Published: May 2022

Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is a disease caused by dysregulation of the immune system with pancreatic cells as the targeted organ. The incidence of T1DM is increasing every year, with peak incidence at the age of 10-14 years. Genetic susceptibility and environmental exposure play important roles in immune system disorders. The failure of the tolerogenic process is one of the foremost processes causing pancreatic damage through the molecular mimicry process due to repeated infections both prenatally and postnatally. An increase in the expression of MHC class II and co-stimulator will trigger a shift in the balance of the shape of T cells, namely an increase in Th1 and Th7 cell differentiation, but a decrease in the number and function of Treg cells. TGF-β is a cytokine produced by Treg cells that functions to maintain tolerance in the human body. A decrease in TGF-β levels usually appears in the pre-diabetes stage. This review aims to elucidate the role of TGF- in the course of T1DM.

Authors: Mahisa Orizanov , Semedi Bambang Pujo , Kusuma Edward
Published: May 2022

We report six cases of the use of Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) in the COVID-19 geriatric patients with acute respiratory failure. The one case continued with intubation or invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) and five cases did not do IMV. The novel Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection can occur acute respiratory failure from mild to severe. The Severe Acute respiratory failure due to COVID-19 requires oxygen therapy in the form of NIV or IMV. NIV can reduce complications related to IMV, especially the incidence of nosocomial infections and complications due to invasive procedures. The geriatric group with COVID-19 has higher risk than the young group. The many comorbidities, decreased immune function and organ systems that occur in geriatrics worsening of COVID-19 symptoms and course. NIV is only an introduction or the first step before IMV is done with close monitoring before the patients get worse. The use of NIV that is not in accordance with the indications and IMV delaying can increase the risk of COVID-19 patients mortality.
Effect of Kinesio Taping with Fascia Manipulation Technique on Superficial Back Line Over Hamstring Fascia to Increase the Range of Motion – An Observational Study
Authors: Mate Swapnil
Published: May 2022

Superficial Back Line is one of the first lines dissected and researched over the fascia as a connective tissue. The Superficial Back Line (SBL) connects and protects the entire posterior surface of the body like a carapace from the bottom of the foot to the top of the head. Strain, tension (good and bad), trauma, and movement tend to be passed through the structure along these fascial lines of transmission leading to soft tissue mal-alignment resulting in somatic and mechanical dysfunction. A forward bend with the knee’s straight links and challenges all the tracks and stations of the Superficial Back Line. Kinesio Taping application with fascia manipulation correction technique helps in the correction and realignment of the collagen fibres found predominantly in the fascia system responsible for tensile strength and force transmission. Observational finding with clinical data collection reveals pre and post KT application over the hamstring fascia suggest its effectiveness in realigning the fascia fibres to increase the range of motion of forwarding bend movement.
