Authors: Peng Yong , Li Aiming
Published: February 2025

Objective: To investigate the expression and diagnostic value of D-dimer, CRP, and IL-6 in children with Mycoplasma pneumonia. Methods: A total of 100 children diagnosed with Mycoplasma pneumonia from the pediatric department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Shaoyang University, admitted between November 2023 and June 2024, were selected for the study. According to the severity of the condition, they were divided into two groups: a mild group (50 cases) and a severe group (50 cases). After treatment, they were further divided into an effective group (63 cases) and a non-effective group (37 cases) based on the treatment outcomes, to compare their diagnostic values. Results: The levels of D-dimer, CRP, IL-6, length of hospital stay, fever resolution time, cough resolution time, and the time for lung rales to disappear were higher in the severe group than in the mild group (P < 0.05). The levels of D-dimer, CRP, and IL-6 in the non-effective group were higher than those in the effective group (P < 0.05). In this study, using pathological results as the “gold standard,” it was found that the positive detection rate for the combined detection of D-dimer, CRP, and IL-6 was higher than the detection rate for each of D-dimer, CRP, and IL-6 alone, suggesting that the combined diagnosis had a higher positive detection rate (P < 0.05). Compared with D-dimer, CRP, and IL-6, the combined sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy were all higher (P < 0.05). Conclusion: D-dimer, CRP, and IL-6 are closely related to Mycoplasma pneumonia in children and can serve as auxiliary diagnostic tools for Mycoplasma pneumonia in children, offering significant value.

Optimizing oracle database performance: Reducing row migration and enhancing access efficiency by tuning PCT Free and PCT Used
Authors: Murali Natti
Published: February 2025

In Oracle databases, efficient data storage and retrieval are paramount for maintaining high performance, especially in systems with large datasets and frequent updates. A critical aspect of database performance is the management of data storage within blocks, which directly impacts how rows are stored and accessed. Oracle uses parameters such as PCT Free and PCT Used to control space allocation and manage how data is stored within database blocks. Improperly configured settings for these parameters can lead to significant performance degradation, especially in terms of row migration. Row migration occurs when a row, after being updated, becomes too large to fit into its original block, resulting in the row being moved to another block. This introduces inefficiencies, leading to increased disk I/O, fragmented blocks, and degraded query performance. This white paper explores a comprehensive approach to optimizing Oracle database performance by fine-tuning the PCT Free and PCT Used parameters, ultimately reducing row migration and enhancing access efficiency. By adjusting these settings based on workload patterns, table structures, and row update frequencies, organizations can minimize unnecessary block accesses, improve overall space utilization, and reduce the I/O overhead that hampers system performance. The white paper provides a detailed exploration of the problem, the methodology for tuning these parameters, and the results achieved through a practical case study.

Authors: Mustafa K. Mushatet
Published: February 2025

Traditional medicine used Prosopis farcta as a dried fruit before scientists discovered the active biological components that give this fruit its pain-relieving properties. This research looked at how well a dried fruit extract of P. farcta (AEP) worked by checking for signs of inflammation in albino rats that given carrageenan (CRG) induced tissue damage in rats. There were 32 male Rattus norvegicus animals split into four equal groups. The control group got 1 ml of physiologic solution, and the CRG group got 100 μl of a carrageenan solution dissolved in 1 ml to induce inflammation. The CRG & AEP 300 group was given AEP 300 mg/kg bw an hour after being given 100 μl of the CRG solution dissolved in 1 ml. After one hour of giving 100 ml of the dissolved CRG solution in 1 ml, the CRG & AEP 400 group received AEP 400 mg/kg bw. administered all groups orally for 30 consecutive days. They found that serum levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), MDA, the ratio of CRP to albumin (CAR), and white blood cells count (WBC) increased significantly. Concurrently, glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and albumin exhibited significant reduction. CRG caused to lower plasma CRP, MDA, and CAR levels. Carrageenan also caused a drop in GPx activity and increased ESR levels. The conclusion shows that the water-based extract of Prosopis farcta fruits can help reduce the inflammatory response linked to CRG. This is supported by the fact that certain blood and plasma parameters went down in this study.

Published: February 2025

University students currently undergoing physical and mental development experience serious mental health obstacles that can result in depression and self-inflicted injury. Medical help does not reach students who do not know that they are affected by mental health disorders because early diagnosis requires precise detection of mental conditions. Campus environments produce diverse multi-modal unstructured data that makes mental health identification difficult by its nature. Our framework INSIGHT (Intelligent Student Mental Health Detection Framework) provides a novel solution which applies advanced methodologies to improve mental health detection accuracy. This framework unifies three distinctive advanced elements. A multi-modal data fusion strategy uses Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) to integrate social behavioral, academic pattern and physical activity data to create an all-encompassing student life model. The proposed adaptive generative data augmentation method (ADAM) conducts dynamic synthesis of high-quality minority samples to enhance model robustness through label imbalance mitigation. The final model uses Attention-based Long Short-Term Memory Networks (ALSTM) together with Transformer encoders to achieve precise mental health prediction outcomes. The INSIGHT solution demonstrates superior performance according to extensive experiments that achieve precision gains of up to 94.7% compared to base methods. University mental health prevention detection through the proposed system serves as an effective predictive tool which delivers actionable insights to improve campus mental health support efforts.

Sickle cell disease is a hereditary disease of the hemoglobin that provides blood transfusion and is responsible for the occurrence of alloimmunization in children with sickle cell disease.

Objective: The main objective is to describe the epidemiological and clinical profile of alloimmunized children with sickle cell disease hospitalized in four hospital departments in Libreville.

Materials and methods: This was a prospective descriptive, analytical study that took place over a period of seven months. We included all children with sickle cell disease, whether or not they were being monitored and hospitalized for acute anemia with a history of blood transfusion.

Results: During our study period, we included 71 children with sickle cell disease. The average age of the children was 80.2±55.4 months. The medical follow-up of children with sickle cell disease was correct 38% (n=27). The inter-critical hemoglobin level was 7g/dl. The medical history was found on average 3 blood transfusions of packed red blood cells. The blood group O positive was the most common 49.3% (n=). Packed red blood cells were the only labile blood product transfused 100% (n=71). The post-transfusion gain in hemoglobin was 1.48±1.3g/dl. The phenotype when incompatible was linked to a low post-transfusion gain. Splenomegaly and jaundice were the post-transfusion complications found with respectively 62% (n=44) and 36.6% (n=26). The Coombs test was positive 26.8% (n=19).

Conclusion: The phenomenon of alloimmunization remains unknown and underdiagnosed in children with sickle cell disease. The presence of clinical signs of post-transfusion hemolysis requires specific tests to be performed.

Con el propósito de investigar frecuencia, desarrollo y localización de focos de criptas displásicas (FCD) inducidos por el cancerígeno 1,2–dimetilhidrazina (DMH) en intestino grueso de ratas tratadas con molibdeno y tungsteno, fueron utilizados 120 machos de la cepa Wistar, de 3 meses de edad, mantenidos con dieta balanceada ad–libitum y agua desmineralizada. Molibdeno (Mo) y tungsteno (W) fueron administrados en el agua de bebida a la concentración de 200 ppm. Los FCD fueron inducidos mediante inyección subcutánea semanal de DMH durante 16 semanas, a la dosis de 20 mg/kg de peso corporal. El Mo, en forma de molibdato de amonio [(NH4)6) Mo7) O24) 4H2)O] y el W, en forma de tungstenato de sodio (Na2) WO4)), fueron administrados en el agua de bebida a partir de los dos meses previos a la iniciación del tratamiento con DMH y continuaron suministrándose durante 4 meses más, hasta la última dosis de DMH. Todos los animales fueron sacrificados 3 meses después de concluido el tratamiento con DMH. Cortes histológicos de cada uno de los segmentos del intestino grueso fueron examinados a fin de detectar, localizar y caracterizar a los FCD, como así también determinar su relación con los nódulos linfoides asociados al intestino. En el grupo con molibdenosis se observó una significativa disminución del número de FCD (n=27), comparado con el grupo tratado únicamente con DMH (n=49) y el grupo tratado con tungsteno (n=35). Estos datos refuerzan la teoría que diversos componentes de la dieta pueden jugar un importante rol en la causa y prevención del cáncer de colon, tanto en seres humanos como en animales de laboratorio.
Diarrea viral bovina: actualización
Authors: Lértora W. J.
Published: February 2025

La diarrea viral bovina es una enfermedad de distribución mundial y endémica en la mayoría de las poblaciones bovinas. Es responsable de ocasionar un amplio rango de manifestaciones clínicas y lesiones, siendo los trastornos reproductivos los de mayor impacto económico. Las estrategias de erradicación dependen de la situación epidemiológica regional; básicamente consisten en la identificación y eliminación de bovinos persistentemente infectados, principal fuente de infección y reservorio del virus. En la Argentina los estudios de la enfermedad son aún escasos y no existe un real conocimiento de la prevalencia de la infección en las distintas regiones ganaderas. El objetivo de esta investigación bibliográfica es aportar datos actualizados sobre distintos aspectos de la diarrea viral bovina y conocer su situación en la Argentina.

Las técnicasinmunodiagnósticas, como el test de Coggins para el diagnóstico de anemia infecciosa equina,pueden dar resultados inespecíficos. Para comprobar dicha posibilidad se trabajó con 82equinos seronegativos divididos en 7 grupos. En 4 de ellos se inocularon distintas vacunascontra enfermedades víricas. En otros 2 se aplicaron una y dos dosis respectivamente, deun complejo mineral con el agregado de compuestos orgánicos y en el último se suministróuna dosis de un complejo mineral sin agregado alguno. El control serológico se realizó pormedio del test de Coggins. Los resultados observados indicaron que el 16,7% de los equinosinoculados con una dosis del complejo mineral que poseía compuestos orgánicos (extractosvegetales), resultaron falsos positivos, y el 25% de los animales inyectados con dos dosis delmismo producto también arrojaron resultados inespecíficos.

Elobjetivo de este estudio fue caracterizar fisicoquímicamente la leche de búfala producida enla Provincia de Corrientes, así como investigar variaciones atribuibles al estadio de lactación,época del año y raza, comparando estos resultados con los obtenidos en otras latitudes porotros autores. Se trabajó con leche de 40 búfalas de razas Murrah y mestizas ½ Murrah y ½Mediterránea, de segunda a quinta lactación, durante 12 meses, totalizando 960 muestras.Los animales pertenecían a un tambo localizado en una región de clima subtropical húmedo,con precipitaciones anuales de 1.694,5 mm y temperatura media anual de 22,0°C. Se obtuvieronvalores medios para densidad (1,0307±0,0039 g/ml), acidez (19,65±2,96°Dornic), pH(6,71±0,16), sólidos totales (16,35±2,42 %), grasa (7,22±1,89 %), proteína (3,85±0,92 %), lactosa(4,49±0,24 %) y cenizas (0,83±0,08 %). Estos parámetros no revelaron diferencias significativasatribuibles a la raza de los animales. Sólidos totales, grasa y acidez exhibieronincrementos significativos (p < 0,05) en el tercer tercio de la lactancia. La época del año noafectó la composición química de la leche de búfala, pero la acidez mostró aumentos significativosen primavera y verano. Se enfatiza la importancia de disponer de patrones de referenciaespecíficos para la leche bubalina, ya que los actualmente empleados en nuestro país han sidoobtenidos en leche bovina.

Los datos sobre intervalos sistólicos del canino son escasosy dispersos, lo cual motivó la necesidad de obtener sus valores ecográficos de referencia,así como su correlación con la frecuencia cardíaca y el peso corporal, de gran utilidad para elesclarecimiento diagnóstico de las cardiopatías de esta especie. Mediante un ecógrafo DopplerKontron modelo Iris 440 se estudiaron 78 perros clínicamente sanos de diferente sexo,edad, peso y raza. Se obtuvieron valores medios para el período pre–eyectivo (78,2±5,1 mseg),tiempo de eyección del ventrículo izquierdo (172,2±2,8 mseg) y sístole electromecánica total(215,28±15,20 mseg). La relación entre los dos primeros parámetros resultó de 0,415±0,04.Estadísticamente no hubo correlación entre los intervalos sistólicos y el peso corporal delos animales, pero se registraron altas correlaciones (p < 0,01) entre la frecuencia cardíaca yparámetros como tiempo de eyección del ventrículo izquierdo, sístole electromecánica total yrelación entre período pre–eyectivo y tiempo de eyección del ventrículo izquierdo.

Este trabajo tuvo como objetivodeterminar el grado de infestación parasitaria en suelos de lugares públicos y en heces deperros y gatos de distintas áreas de la ciudad de Corrientes, a efectos de valorar el riesgopotencial de contaminación humana. Desde el punto de vista epidemiológico, el contacto delhombre con el suelo contaminado con Ancylostoma sp. o Toxocara sp. puede dar origen alarvas migrantes superficiales y profundas, además de la posible infección por Toxoplasmagondii a través de los ooquistes que se eliminan con materia fecal de gatos. Para tal fin, fuerontomadas 2.130 muestras (780 de suelo, 900 de materia fecal de perros y 450 de materiafecal de gatos), las que fueron procesadas por las técnicas de flotación de Willis, Sheater yFaust. Las muestras de suelo fueron procesadas con solución de sulfato de cinc al 40% y examinadaspor microscopía óptica. Cada muestra fue procesada dos veces antes de determinarsu negatividad. Los resultados obtenidos fueron 18,97% de positividad para las muestras desuelos, 61,10% para la materia fecal de perros y 46% para la materia fecal de gatos. Taleshallazgos justifican la adopción de medidas de control para disminuir la tasa de infestaciónparasitaria responsable de la contaminación ambiental.

El objetivo de este trabajo fue determinar los efectos analgésicos de la asociación xilacina–ketamina administrada por vía epidural en búfalos. Diez machos de raza Mediterránea,de diferente peso y edad, recibieron xilacina a razón de 0,05 mg/kg de peso y conjuntamente(en la misma jeringa) ketamina a dosis de 2 mg/kg. Según la región anatómica, el inicio dela analgesia se produjo aproximadamente entre los 11 y 16 minutos post–administración y elefecto persistió hasta los 40 a 64 minutos. Durante dicho lapso los animales fueron sometidosa diversos actos quirúrgicos. No se registraron diferencias significativas (p < 0,05) entre lasfrecuencias cardíaca y respiratoria pre e intra–anestesia, como así tampoco ulteriores efectossecundarios indeseables. La combinación xilacina–ketamina se revela como una alternativaanestésica eficaz para ser utilizada en búfalos vía epidural.

Estudios epidemiológicos en seres humanosy experimentales en animales de laboratorio, sugieren que la leche y productos lácteospueden ejercer efectos inhibitorios sobre el desarrollo de varios tipos de tumores. La leche devaca contiene esfingomielina, ácido butírico, ácido linoleico conjugado, calcio y vitaminas Ay D, componentes con capacidad potencial de inhibir el proceso de la carcinogénesis en diversosmodelos experimentales. El objetivo del presente trabajo consistió en determinar el efectode la ingestión de leche descremada, sobre el desarrollo de neoplasias del colon en un modelode carcinogénesis experimental en ratas, inducida con 1,2–dimetilhidrazina (DMH). Los tumoresintestinales fueron inducidos mediante la inoculación semanal por vía subcutánea de ladroga DMH a la dosis de 20 mg/kg durante 10 semanas. Todas las ratas fueron sacrificadas 15semanas después de la última inoculación. En cada uno de los animales se determinó el número,tamaño, aspecto macroscópico y localización de los tumores en los diferentes segmentosdel intestino grueso. Los resultados demostraron menor número de tumores en el lote tratadocon leche descremada (n = 75), con respecto al lote tratado únicamente con DMH (n = 137).Macroscópicamente en el lote que recibió dieta láctea predominaron los tumores polipoides(78,66%), mientras que en el lote que no consumió leche predominaron los tumores planos(46,71%). En ambos grupos se observó mayor porcentaje de tumores localizados en el colondistal. El menor número de tumores en el lote alimentado con leche en polvo descremada seatribuye a la menor ingestión de componentes grasos provenientes de la misma, así como a loscomponentes anticancerígenos propios de la leche.
