Authors: Seijo Dolores , Vázquez María José , Novo Mercedes , Fariña Francisca
Published: January 2023

The literature has shown a direct relationship between the psychological sense of belonging with psychological well-being and academic involvement in physical communities. However, new technologies have favored the formation of communities in cyberspace, with scarce research at the university level addressing their impact. For this reason, an ex post facto study has been designed with the aim of knowing the relationship between the psychological sense of belonging to virtual communities with psychological well-being, with academic involvement, academic satisfaction, and the perception of justice of the academic outcomes. In addition, the possible influence of the gender factor was considered. 1,035 undergraduate students from Spanish universities responded to the Scale of Psychological Sense of Community in Virtual Groups (SCGV), to the Scale of Psychological Well-being (EBP) and to an ad hoc instrument designed to measure academic involvement, academic satisfaction and perception of justice of the academic outcomes. The results revealed that the successful virtual sense of belonging is related to greater subjective, economic and academic well-being, while increasing academic participation, academic satisfaction and the perception of justice of the academic outcomes. Moreover, the influence of the gender factor was also found, as it revealed greater academic well-being in women and differences in academic participation between men and women. The implications of the results are discussed in terms of the benefits for the students of integration and participation in virtual academic communities for the well-being, academic involvement, academic satisfaction and perception of justice of the academic outcomes.
El impacto del COVID-19 en el aprendizaje durante el confinamiento
Authors: Hurtado-Martín Marta , López-Torres Laura , Santín Daniel , Sicilia Gabriela , Simancas Rosa
Published: January 2023

La pandemia del COVID-19 llevó a la población española a un confinamiento obligatorio entre los meses de marzo y mayo de 2020. Ello supuso cerrar los centros educativos y continuar el resto del curso 2019-2020 sin presencialidad. Este trabajo analiza cómo se desarrolló el proceso educativo durante el confinamiento y estima el impacto que la interacción entre la educación telemática y la situación laboral de los progenitores tuvo sobre la competencia de pensamiento crítico del alumnado. Para ello, utilizamos datos recogidos al principio y al final del curso 2019-2020 sobre el pensamiento crítico del alumnado de 3º ESO de 15 centros educativos de la Comunidad de Madrid. En primer lugar, concluimos que los centros públicos tuvieron mayores dificultades que los centros concertados para continuar con el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje. Para seguir las clases telemáticas, el 70% del alumnado en centros concertados disponían de un ordenador de sobremesa o portátil, frente a solo un 40% del alumnado en centros públicos. Además, mientras que el 73% del alumnado de centros concertados destinaron más de 4 horas en total a clases y tareas online, esta cifra solo superó ligeramente el 50% en el alumnado de centros públicos. En segundo lugar, y con carácter general, las diferentes situaciones laborales de padres y madres no tuvieron efectos significativos sobre el pensamiento crítico del alumnado. Sin embargo, encontramos que, para el alumnado con resultados académicos por debajo de la media a principio de curso, el hecho de que la madre teletrabajara durante el cierre escolar tuvo un impacto positivo y significativo sobre sus resultados. Ello sugiere que el teletrabajo permitió a las madres brindar mayor apoyo y supervisión a sus hijos e hijas con bajo rendimiento previo.
First Hour Plasma Glucose in 75 gr Oral Glucose Tolerance Test And Risk Of Developing Diabetes Mellitus
Authors: ACIBUCU Fettah , ŞEN Suat , ERDEM İbrahim , SUSAN Ceren , KÜÇÜK Şekure Demet
Published: December 2022

Introduction: Early detection of dysglycemia is critical for avoiding the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D). The risk of developing type 2 diabetes is assessed using fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and 2-hour plasma glucose (PG) after a 75 gr oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Intermediate steps taken during an OGTT may reveal additional details about a person's diabetes risk in the future. Our goal was to assess the risk of developing diabetes in patients with high one hour plasma glucose level in an 75 gr OGTT.

Method: Patients were admitted to an 75gr OGTT. During the 75gr OGTT, patients with FPG below 100 mg/dl and 2-hour PG below 140 mg/dl but first hour PG above 200 mg/dl were included in this study. We evaluated whether the patients diagnosed with T2D by hospital data, E-Nabız (an online public healthcare data system) and via direct contact with patients. ADA criteria was used for T2D diagnose.

Results: We have included 73 patients which were 31 male and 42 female in our study. The youngest patient was 23 and the oldest one was 74. The median age was 51. We have found that the mean FPG in OGTT was 92.55±5.12mg/dl, 1-hour PG was 215.42±17.94mg/dl and 2- hour PG was 112.01±22.92mg/dl. Patients were followed minimum of 20 months and maximum of 65 months. The median was 37 months. During the follow up 30 patiens (%41.1) have developed T2D in 28.17±14.25 months. There were no direct correlation between age and sex with developing T2D. We found no correlation between 1-hour PG levels and T2D developing time in patients who developed T2D ( r:0.118, p=0.536). There were no evidence of correlation between T2D developing time and age (p:0.980 r:0.005). There was no difference between patients with and without T2D in terms of age, FPG, 1-hour PG, 2-hour PG and follow-up time.

Conclusion: Despite the limitations of our study, we think that checking the PG level in the first hour during OGTT will be useful in early detection of individuals at risk for diabetes and preventing diabetes.
Imaginarios teatrales en filmes de ambientación medieval: motivos paganos en El señor de la guerra (The War Lord, 1965), de Franklin J. Schaffner, y Alfredo el Grande (Alfred the Great, 1969), de Clive Donner
Authors: García-Manso Angélica , Tovar-Paz Francisco Javier
Published: December 2022

En cierta medida, el teatro medieval se percibe como una realidad difusa tanto para la investigación académica como en el marco de su concepción didáctica y en el imaginario popular. Las manifestaciones del teatro medieval, habitualmente ajenas a una plasmación en forma de texto, se desarrollan en un contexto religioso y en festividades rituales, que se encuentra en regresión en lo que se refiere al paganismo y en ascenso en lo relativo al cristianismo –a pesar de que los espectáculos se perciben inicialmente como una celebración fundamentalmente pagana–. En pocas ocasiones el Séptimo Arte ha plasmado el imaginario de los espectáculos paganos, si bien en tales ocasiones contribuye a generar un conocimiento singular del fenómeno. Dos filmes como El señor de la guerra (The War Lord, 1965, de F. J. Schaffner) y Alfredo el Grande (Alfred de Great, 1969, de Clive Donner) muestran cada uno una secuencia en la que se intertextualizan en un espectáculo de carácter teatral las figuras mitológicas de Yggdrasil y Jormungandr procedentes de las sagas nórdicas. La propuesta que se lleva a cabo en este estudio se ofrece como ejemplo de modelo didáctico para el desarrollo de un estudio de investigación transversal (en el marco de un curso de máster universitario).

Published: December 2022

Mature cystic teratomas are usually benign, however malignant transformation occurs rarely. It is identified in only 0.17-2% of cases. Malignant cells can arise from cell of any type, but most common malignant transformation found to be squamous cell carcinoma (80% cases) followed by adenocarcinoma. While neural tissue is identified in nearly 80% cases of mature cystic teratomas, neuroectodermal tissue with malignant transformation is the most exceptional event. There is minimal data available on primary neuroectodermal tumours of ovary, majority are astrocytoma of different grades, only few cases were reported in the literature so far. Authors report a extremely rare and unique case of pilocytic astrocytoma arising from a mature cystic teratoma in a pregnant female. A 33-year-old pregnant female in her first trimester came for regular antenatal visit, Ultrasound (USG) abdomen and pelvis single live intrauterine gestation corresponding to 10 weeks and incidental complex right ovarian cyst likely to be mature cystic teratoma. Patient underwent right ovarian cystectomy five months after normal vaginal delivery and provisional diagnosis was given as complex right ovarian dermoid cyst. Final detailed histopathological examination revealed a tumour with glial tissue within the cyst, reported as pilocytic astrocytoma {World Health Organization (WHO) grade 1} arising in mature cystic teratoma. To the best of authors’ knowledge this is the third case showing pilocytic astrocytoma component in ovarian teratoma and the first case of this entity occurring in a pregnant female. Authors present an unusual case where radiology gave preliminary diagnosis however, extensive histopathological examination, histochemistry and immunohistochemistry helped in definite diagnosis.
Пириболы — биоболы — биопириболы: переходные структурные типы между пироксенами, амфиболами и слюдами, "Природа"
Authors: Расцветаева Р.К.
Published: December 2022

В основе строения большого числа силикатных минералов лежат трехслойные блоки, состоящие из двух T-радикалов вершинносвязанных кремнекислородных тетраэдров и O-радикала реберно-связанных октаэдров между ними. Трехслойные блоки имеют разную протяженность — от бесконечных двумерных (слюды) до бесконечных одномерных (пироксены, пироксеноиды, амфиболы). Кристаллохимическое многообразие этих минералов обусловлено вариациями химического состава блоков, их геометрических характеристик, а также топологией и симметрией их расположения в структуре и охватывает диапазон от слоистых (и псевдослоистых) до каркасных структур. В специфических условиях кристаллизации образуются гибридные структуры, сочетающие двумерные фрагменты разной ширины с одномерными. Изучение этих минералов открывает пути для синтеза слоистых и псевдослоистых микропористых соединений с заданными свойствами.

Published: December 2022

Статья посвящена малоизвестным в отечественной историографии страницам взаимоотношений «князя гуманистов» Эразма Роттердамского и его друга Андреа Аммонио из Лукки, придворного поэта, латинского секретаря английского короля Генриха VIII. В начале XVI в. развитию и укреплению культурных связей в интеллектуальной среде крупнейших европейских государств способствовало не только распространение гуманизма, но и расцвет придворной культуры в Англии в эпоху правления династии Тюдоров. Важнейшими историческими источниками, позволяющими пролить свет на историю дружбы двух авторов, являются их письма и поэтические произведения, посвященные друг другу. Так, как минимум одно из своих посланий Эразм сопроводил «изысканной сладостью», которая получила поэтический ответ Аммонио.

Впервые для незастроенных территорий крупного города на юге России на примере Ростова-на-Дону выполнена характеристика фауны мелких млекопитающих, проведено сравнение с таковой прилегающих к городу естественных ландшафтов. Отловы проводились на нескольких участках с разной степенью антропогенного воздействия. Наибольшее видовое разнообразие (6–7 видов) отмечено на левобережье Дона (пойменные биотопы рекреационных зон). При этом здесь доминировала малая лесная мышь. Участки, располагающиеся в городской застройке, имели пониженное видовое разнообразие (4–5 видов). Доминирующим видом была обыкновенная лесная мышь, на одной из площадок с ней содоминировала домовая мышь. Преимущественное проникновение в черту городской застройки из группы лесных мышей именно обыкновенной лесной мыши, по-видимому, связано с определенными чертами ее экологии, что отражается и в ее связи на юге России с луговыми биотопами. На всех обследованных участках в пределах городской черты преобладали гемисинантропы. Наиболее высокая доля синантропов отмечена в пойме р. Темерник, на забурьяненных участках с редкими деревьями. В пределах городской застройки экзоантропные виды не зарегистрированы.

The study analyzed the rainfall trend and pattern for Owerri municipal, Imo state. The data collected is secondary. A remote sensing daily rainfall data from 1981 to 2020 from CHIRPS data archive given in millimeter (mm) was downloaded. In order to achieve the aim of the research, data analysis was conducted on the rainfall data. Some of the statistical methods used includes mean, variance, standard deviation, coefficient of variation, and standardized anomaly index (S.A.I). The annual rainfall and monthly rainfall for Owerri municipal, Imo state were analyzed and charts were presented which show fluctuation in rainfall trend and pattern. The least annual rainfall happened to be in 1983 of about 1662.9mm, which is followed by that of  2001 of 1828mm. The wettest annual rainfall occurred in the year 1995 of 2962.2mm which happened to be the peak of the study, followed by 1999 of 2837.9mm. It was shown that the month July from 1981 to 2020 experienced more rainfall than that of August. The four decadal rainfall presented for the study shows; near normal condition to very wet condition (1981 – 1990), near normal condition (1991 – 2000), extremely dry conditions to near normal condition (2001 – 2010), and near normal condition to extremely dry condition (2010 - 2020). The hypothesis was tested using chi-square, the results shows there is no significant difference in trend and pattern of rainfall in owerri, thus, the null hypothesis was accepted. The study generally show there is a little or no singnificant change in the rainfall pattern and trend in Owerri from 1998-2020 and hence recommend that there should be more monitoring of rainfall activities in order to curtail it excesses in flooding and agricultural loss.

Weather is one of the most important factors determining the success or failure of agricultural production. It affects every phase of the growth and development of a plant. Extreme weather events like heavy rains, cyclones, heat waves, cold waves, drought, etc cause considerable loss in crop production every year. Because of the above, Agrometeorological Advisory Services (AAS) are being rendered by India Meteorological Department (IMD), Ministry of Earth Sciences (MoES) under Gramin Krishi Mausam Sewa (GKMS). Under this scheme weather information-based, crop/livestock management strategies and operations are dedicated to enhancing crop production and food security. To understand the response of the farmers about weather based weather-based advisories disseminated through mobile phones a survey was conducted by the District Agromet Unit (DAMU) by the Krishi Vigyan Kendra (KVK), Utukur, Andhra Pradesh. A sample size of 200 respondents was selected by employing a proportionate random sampling method. Among the farmers surveyed, the majority of the farmers fully adopted harvesting practices (87.5 %) followed by pest, disease management, and irrigation management practices. Nearly half of the farmers followed nursery management, selection of varieties, and post-harvest management practices. Farmers had a medium level of information processing (47.0 %), storage (60.0 %), and sharing (52.5 %) behaviour.

Background and Objectives: Carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa, are among the top tier of the list of antibiotic-resistant priority pathogens that pose the greatest threat to human health. In recent years, the rate of carbapenem resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa has increased worldwide and has become of great concern since it significantly restricts the therapeutic options for patients. Therefore this study was undertaken to determine the antibiotic susceptibility profile of the clinical isolate of Carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Methodology: A total of five hundred (500) clinical samples were collected from patient’s attending Alex Ekwueme Federal University Teaching Hospital Abakaliki, Ebonyi State (AFEUTHA). The collected samples were analyzed for the presence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa using standard microbiological techniques for isolation and characterization of bacteria. Further strain confirmation was performed using VITEK 2 System. Phenotypic detection of Carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa was performed using Modified Hodge testing. Antibiotic susceptibility was performed by employing Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method and the results were interpreted using the Clinical Laboratory Standard Institute (CLSI) zone diameter breakpoints.

Results: The occurrence rate of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in clinical samples accounted for 119(23.8%) consisting of a high proportion from urine sample 81(27.4%) followed by wound swabs 13(25.5%), high vaginal swabs 17(20.7) while the least occurrence rate was observed against catheter tips 5(12.8%) and sputum 3(9.4%). Modified Hodge testing revealed 31(6.2%) carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa comprising of high proportion of 24(8.1%) from urine samples followed by wound swab 5(9.8%) while Carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa was absent in High Vaginal Swab recording 0(0.0%). Carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates were highly resistant to amoxicillin-clavulanic 100%, colistin 100%, tetracycline 100%, nitrofurantoin 70.8%, aztreonam 87.5% but were susceptible to nalixidic acid 50.0 %, ofloxacin 75.0%, and ciprofloxacin 100%.

Conclusion: As in-vitro susceptibility of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates to ofloxacin and ciprofloxacin is known, their judicious utilization will accelerate a significant improvement in the patient's condition. As such, there is a substantial need for the evaluation of a wide spectrum and new therapies in different classes to counteract this imminent crisis of resistance among Carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Published: December 2022

3D printing via reversible addition‐fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization has been recently developed to expand the scope of 3D printing technologies. A potentially high‐impact but relatively unexplored opportunity that can be provided by RAFT‐mediated 3D printing is a pathway toward personalized medicine through manufacturing bespoke drug delivery systems (DDSs). Herein, 3D printing of drug‐eluting systems with precise geometry, size, drug dosage, and release duration/profiles is reported. This is achieved through engineering a range of 3D models with precise interconnected channel‐pore structure and geometric proportions in architectural patterns. Notably, the application of the RAFT process is crucial in manufacturing materials with highly resolved macroscale features by confining curing to exposure precincts. This approach also allows spatiotemporal control of the drug loading and compositions within different layers of the scaffolds. The ratio between the polyethylene glycol units and the acrylate units in the crosslinkers is found to be a critical factor, with a higher ratio increasing swelling capacity, and thus enhancing the drug release profile, from the drug‐eluting systems. This proof‐of‐concept research demonstrates that RAFT‐mediated 3D printing enables the production of personalized drug delivery materials, providing a pathway to replace the “one‐size‐fits‐all” approach in traditional health care.

Leakage is a significant issue that prevents the widespread application of liquid metals (LMs) and an effective solution has not yet been developed. One potential solution is to use the high surface tension of LMs to encapsulate them in a porous material. However, it is challenging as it is difficult to infuse LMs into tiny pores. This study proposes a bottom‐up strategy where LMs are doped with NdFeB@Ag particles, which are then magnetized to form a tight porous structure. This structure is robust and resistant to collapse under mechanical deformation. Therefore, LMs can be reliably immobilized within the pores between the particles, and a dynamic leakage‐free state is achieved. The encapsulated LMs demonstrate excellent properties including a large latent heat of 153.46 J cm−3, high thermal conductivity of 35.62 W m−1 K−1, and enhanced electrical conductivity of 69.61%, which efficiently extends their functional scope and potential value.

A new enantioselective intramolecular strategy for the synthesis of enantioenriched bridged benzoxacines, unsaturated spirobenzofurans, 2,3‐dihydrobenzofuran and 2,3‐indoline acetate scaffolds in a tandem‐like diazotization/Heck‐Matsuda process directly from anilines has been developed. The process combines the in situ diazotization of the aniline, followed by the intramolecular Heck‐Matsuda reaction, thus skipping the isolation and purification of potentially unstable or hard‐to‐synthesize aryldiazonium salts. The practicality and robustness of the sequence were demonstrated by the synthesis of 30 complex motifs in yields up to 91% and enantiomeric ratios up to 97:3, including quaternary stereocenters. The in‐tandem processes from anilines were compared to conventional Heck‐Matsuda reactions using pre‐synthesized aryldiazonium salts. With few exceptions, the reactions starting directly from the anilines afforded better overall yields and enantioselectivity, demonstrating the efficiency of the method.

Published: December 2022

The focus on precise medicine enhances the need for timely diagnosis and frequent monitoring of chronic diseases. Moreover, the recent pandemic of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 poses a great demand for rapid detection and surveillance of viral infections. The detection of protein biomarkers and antigens in the saliva allows rapid identification of diseases or disease changes in scenarios where and when the test response at the point of care is mandated. While traditional methods of protein testing fail to provide the desired fast results, electrochemical biosensors based on nanomaterials hold perfect characteristics for the detection of biomarkers in point‐of‐care settings. The recent advances in electrochemical sensors for salivary protein detection are critically reviewed in this work, with emphasis on the role of nanomaterials to boost the biosensor analytical performance and increase the reliability of the test in human saliva samples. Furthermore, this work identifies the critical factors for further modernization of the nanomaterial‐based electrochemical sensors, envisaging the development and implementation of next‐generation sample‐in‐answer‐out systems.

MXenes, a rapidly growing family of 2D transition metal carbides, carbonitrides, and nitrides, are one of the most promising high‐rate electrode materials for energy storage. Despite the significant progress achieved, the MXene synthesis process is still burdensome, involving several procedures including preparation of MAX, etching of MAX to MXene, and delamination. Here, a one‐pot molten salt electrochemical etching (E) method is proposed to achieve Ti2C MXene directly from elemental substances (Ti, Al, and C), which greatly simplifies the preparation process. In this work, different carbon sources, such as carbon nanotubes (CNT) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO), are reacted with Ti and Al micro‐powders to prepare Ti2AlC MAX with 1D and 2D tuned morphology followed by in situ electrochemical etching from Ti2AlC MAX to Ti2CTx MXene in low‐cost LiCl‐KCl. The introduction of the O surface group via further ammonium persulfate (APS) treatment can act in concert with Cl termination to activate the pseudocapacitive redox reaction of Ti2CClyOz in the non‐aqueous electrolyte, resulting in a Li+ storage capacity of up to 857 C g−1 (240 mAh g−1) with a high rate (86 mAh g−1 at 120 C) capability, which makes it promising for use as an anode material for fast‐charging batteries or hybrid devices in a non‐aqueous energy storage application.
An evolutionary framework for understanding habitat partitioning in plants
Authors: Toll Katherine
Published: December 2022

Many plant species with overlapping geographic ranges segregate at smaller spatial scales. This spatial segregation—zonation when it follows an abiotic gradient and habitat partitioning when it does not—has been experimentally investigated for over a century often using distantly related taxa, such as different genera of algae or barnacles. In those foundational studies, trade‐offs between stress tolerance and competitive ability were found to be the major driving factors of habitat partitioning for both animals and plants. Yet, the evolutionary relationships among segregating species are usually not taken into account. Since close relatives are hypothesized to compete more intensely and are more likely to interact during mating compared to distant relatives, the mechanisms underlying habitat partitioning may differ depending on the relatedness of the species in question. Here, I propose an integration of ecological and evolutionary factors contributing to habitat partitioning in plants, specifically how the relative contributions of factors predictably change with relatedness of taxa. Interspecific reproductive interactions in particular are understudied, yet important drivers of habitat partitioning. In spatially segregated species, interspecific mating can reduce the fitness of rare immigrants, preventing their establishment and maintaining patterns of spatial segregation. In this synthesis, I review the literature on mechanisms of habitat partitioning in plants within an evolutionary framework, identifying knowledge gaps and detailing future directions for this rapidly growing field of study.

Published: December 2022

Cuproptosis is a new form of programmed cell death and exhibits enormous potential in cancer treatment. However, reducing the undesirable Cu ion release in normal tissue and maximizing the copper‐induced therapeutic effect in cancer sites are two main challenges. In this study, we constructed a photothermally triggered nanoplatform (Au@MSN‐Cu/PEG/DSF) to realize on‐demand delivery for synergistic therapy. The released disulfiram (DSF) chelated with Cu2+ in situ to generate highly cytotoxic bis(diethyldithiocarbamate)copper (CuET), causing cell apoptosis, and the formed Cu+ species promoted toxic mitochondrial protein aggregation, leading to cell cuproptosis. Synergistic with photothermal therapy, Au@MSN‐Cu/PEG/DSF could effectively kill tumor cells and inhibit tumor growth (inhibition rate up to 80.1 %). These results provide a promising perspective for potential cancer treatment based on cuproptosis, and may also inspire the design of advanced nano‐therapeutic platforms.

Published: December 2022

Lysine acetylation is a charge‐neutralizing post‐translational modification of proteins bound by bromodomains (Brds). A 1,2,4‐triazole amino acid (ApmTri) was established as acetyllysine (Kac) mimic recruiting Brds of the BET family in contrast to glutamine commonly used for simulating this modification. Optimization of triazole substituents and side chain spacing allowed BET Brd recruitment to ApmTri‐containing peptides with affinities similar to native substrates. Crystal structures of ApmTri‐containing peptides in complex with two BET Brds revealed the binding mode which mirrored that of Kac ligands. ApmTri was genetically encoded and recombinant ApmTri‐containing proteins co‐enriched BRD3(2) from cellular lysates. This interaction was blocked by BET inhibitor JQ1. With genetically encoded ApmTri, biochemistry is now provided with a stable Kac mimic reflecting charge neutralization and Brd recruitment, allowing new investigations into BET proteins in vitro and in vivo.
