Prevalence of non-cancer chronic morbidity in tobacco users among adults in Kolar district: community-based study
Authors: S. Harish , Prasad K. N. 
Published: January 2020

Background: Tobacco contains many chemicals which causes cancer and chronic morbidities as evidenced from number of studies. Information regarding the chronic morbidities resulting from tobacco use was lacking in Indian setting. This study was conducted with the objective to find the prevalence of chronic morbidities other than cancer and oral conditions in tobacco users among adults in Kolar district.Methods: This is a community based, cross sectional study conducted in Kolar district among selected sample size of 1534 from six taluks during December 2018 to March 2019. The structured questionnaire was used to collect information at different geographical and social meeting places to represent the sample. The questionnaire contained information about sociodemographic, tobacco use and self-declared morbidity conditions.Results: Study subjects were aged between 18 to 80 years and the mean age was 53.7±18.2 years. The prevalence of chronic morbidity was 14.4% in 1534 subjects and 24.2% in 521 tobacco users. Diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular diseases accounted for 80 percent of morbidities followed by respiratory and other systems. The odd ratio (OR) was 3.4 for tobacco users and chronic morbidities, OR for diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular diseases was 5-19 and 5-22 respectively.Conclusions: The prevalence of diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular diseases and other conditions are high among any form of tobacco use or consumption, illiterates, aged above 51 years and agriculture related workers compared to no tobacco users. There is a need of awareness about early detection of chronic morbidities to reduce the premature deaths and economic loss to the community.
Rozwój formuł melodycznych w staroruskiej monodii cerkiewnej na przykładzie dogmatyka tonu drugiego na podstawie wybranych zachodnioruskich irmologionów XVI-XVIII w.
Authors: Sawicki Daniel 
Published: January 2020

W artykule autor dokonał analizy formuł melodycznych zastosowanych w dogmatyku tonu drugiego. W tym celu posłużył się wybranymi Irmologionami, zarówno tymi najstarszymi, pochodzącymi z terytoriów dzisiejszej Białorusi i Ukrainy, jak również śpiewnikami pochodzącymi z cerkwi unickich Południowego Podlasia, w szczególności Rokitna i Witoroża. Autor wskazuje na istotną rolę prawosławnych monasterów, a po zawarciu Unii brzeskiej (1596 r.) także parafii w rozwoju staroruskiego śpiewu cerkiewnego. W toku prowadzonych badań autor wykazał, iż pomiędzy melodyką dogmatyka tonu drugiego a tekstem zachodzi ścisły związek. Ponadto prowadzone badania ukazały, iż struktura melodii dogmatyka tonu drugiego oraz dobór formuł melodycznych, mimo upływu lat, nie uległy istotniejszym zmianom.

Mulheres e homens na representação política – perfis sociais e trajetórias de parlamentares no Congresso Nacional
Authors: Araújo Paulo Magalhães 
Published: January 2020

Frente à defesa normativa da participação das mulheres nos espaços de poder,o texto analisa os mandatos de homens e mulheres no Congresso Nacional da 47ª à 54ª Legislatura. Ao todo, são 5860 casos, sendo 5527 de homens e 333 de mulheres. Pesquisas apontam crescente profssionalização das elites legislativas federais, expressa no acúmulo de cargos políticos ocupados até a chegada ao Congresso. Nesse processo, intensifca-se a competitividadeque, por sua vez, exige maior profssionalização parlamentar. Por essa lógica, o estudo pressupôs que também o contingente feminino é induzido a níveis mais altos de qualifcação política. A despeito dos obstáculos enfrentados para ascensão feminina ao poder, e considerando-se que a mobilização feminina pela igualdade política é ainda recente no Brasil, verifcou-se que as deputadas e senadoras têm graus elevados de qualifcação, embora inferiores aos doshomens. Verifcou-se, ainda, que as mulheres, como os homens, chegam ao Congresso com experiências em postos políticos variados, conforme incentivado pela estrutura do federalismo brasileiro.Palavras-chave: Mulheres.

Representação política.WOMEN AND MEN IN POLITICAL REPRESENTATION - SOCIAL PROFILES AND TRAJECTORIES OF PARLIAMENTARIANS IN THE NATIONAL CONGRESSAbstractFaced with the normative defense of women’s participation in places of power, the text analyzes the mandates of men and women in the National Congress of the 47th to the 54th Legislature. Altogether, there are 5860 cases, 5527 of men and 333 of women. Surveys point to the growing professionalism of federal legislative elites, expressed in the accumulation of political positions held until their arrival in the Congress of Chambers. In this process, competitivenessis intensified, which, in turn, demands greater parliamentary professionalization. By this logic, the study presupposed that the female contingent is also induced to higher levels of political qualification. Despite the obstacles faced by women’s rise to power, and considering that women’s mobilization for political equality is still recent in Brazil, it has been found that women who take the role of Deputies and Senators have high degrees of qualification, even though inferior to men who also are in the same position. It was also verified that women, like men, arrive at the Congress with experiences in diversified political positions, as encouraged by the structure of Brazilian federalism.Keywords: Women. Men.

Published: January 2020

Abstract
Background: Because of its analgesic and light sedative properties, the highly selective alpha-2 adrenergic receptor agonist dexmedetomidine (DEX) has been suggested for the treatment of septic patients, but its effect on the duration of mechanical ventilation remains unclear. The present study was conducted to review the extant literature in DEX and determine its influence on ventilation time in adult septic patients. Methods: Databases of PubMed, Cochrane, and EMBASE were applied till 20th January 2019 without language restriction. The searching strategy as following: sepsis OR septic AND mechanical ventilation AND dexmedetomidine. Two authors screened titles, abstracts, and even articles to meet the including criterion independently. In addition, references of related articles or reviews were also referred. Data was recorded in a table and analyzed using the software of Review Manager 5.0. Results: Four studies with a total of 349 patients were included. Three trials with 267 patients revealed the effect of DEX on duration of mechanical ventilation, two trials with 264 patients on ventilator-free days and four trials with 334 patients on 28-day mortality. The analyzed results indicated that DEX was not associated with significantly different durations of mechanical ventilation (MD 0.65, 95% CI, -0.13 to 1.42, P = 0.10). However, there were significant differences in ventilator-free days (MD 3.57, 95% CI, 0.26 to 6.89, P = 0.03) and 28-day mortality (RR 0.61, 95% CI, 0.49 to 0.94, P = 0.02) in the septic patients. Conclusion: Administration of DEX for sedation in septic patients was not associated with the duration of mechanical ventilation, but it increased the ventilator-free days and reduced 28-day mortality.
Comparative functional genomics analysis of cytochrome P450 gene superfamily in wheat and maize
Authors: Li YiXuan , Wei Kaifa 
Published: January 2020

Abstract

Background:The cytochrome P450s (CYP450s) as the largest enzyme family of plant metabolism participate in various physiological processes, whereas no study has demonstrated interest in comprehensive comparison of the genes in wheat and maize. Genome-wide survey, characterization and comparison of wheat and maize CYP450 gene superfamily are useful for genetic manipulation of the Gramineae crops.Results:In total, 1285 and 263 full-lengthCYP450s were identified in wheat and maize, respectively. According to standard nomenclature, wheatCYP450s (TaCYP450s) were categorized into 45 families, while maizeCYP450s (ZmCYP450s) into 43 families. A comprehensive analysis of wheat and maize CYP450s, involved in functional domains, conserved motifs, phylogeny, gene structures, chromosome locations and duplicated events was performed. The result showed that each family/subfamily in both species exhibited characteristic features, suggesting their phylogenetic relationship and the potential divergence in their functions. Functional divergence analysis at the amino acid level of representative clans CYP51, CYP74 and CYP97 in wheat, maize and rice identified some critical amino acid sites that are responsible for functional divergence of a gene family. Expression profiles ofTa-,ZmCYP450s were investigated using RNA-seq data, which contribute to infer the potential functions of the genes during development and stress responses. We found in both speciesCYP450s had preferential expression in specific tissues, and many tissue-specific genes were identified. Under water-deficit condition, 82 and 39 significantly differentially expressedCYP450s were respectively detected in wheat and maize. These genes may have some role in protecting plants against drought damage. Thereinto, fourteenCYP450swere selected to validate their expression level through qRT-PCR. To further elucidating molecular mechanisms of CYP450 action, gene co-expression network was constructed. In total, 477TaCYP450s were distributed in 22 co-expression modules, and some co-expressed genes that likely take part in the same biochemical pathway were identified. For instance, the expression ofTaCYP74A98_4Dwas highly correlated withTaLOX9,TaLOX36,TaLOX39,TaLOX44andTaOPR8, and all of them may be involved in jasmonate (JA) biosynthesis.TaCYP73A201_3Ashowed coexpression withTaPAL1.25,TaCCoAOMT1.2,TaCOMT.1,TaCCR1.6andTaLAC5, which probably act in the wheat stem and/or root lignin synthesis pathway.Conclusion:Our study first established systematic information about evolutionary relationship, expression pattern and function characterization ofCYP450s in wheat and maize.

Authors: Bitew Fikrewold , Nyarko Samuel H. , Potter Lloyd , Sparks Corey S. 
Published: January 2020

Abstract
Background: There is a dearth of literature on predictive models estimating under-five mortality risk in Ethiopia. In this study, we develop a spatial map and predictive models to predict the sociodemographic determinants of under-five mortality in Ethiopia. Methods: The study data were drawn from the 2016 Ethiopian Demographic and Health Survey. We used three predictive models to predict under-five mortality within this sample. The three techniques are random forests, logistic regression, and k-nearest neighbors For each model, measures of model accuracy and Receiver Operating Characteristic curves are used to evaluate the predictive power of each model. Results: There are considerable regional variations in under-five mortality rates in Ethiopia. The under-five mortality prediction ability was found to be moderate to low for the models considered, with the random forest model showing the best performance. Maternal age at birth, sex of a child, previous birth interval, water source, health facility delivery services, antenatal and post-natal care checkups, breastfeeding behavior and household size have been found to be significantly associated with under-five mortality in Ethiopia. Conclusions: The random forest machine learning algorithm produces a higher predictive power for under-five mortality risk factors for the study sample. There is a need to improve the quality and access to health care services to enhance childhood survival chances in the country.

Abstract

Background The objective of this cross-sectional study was to evaluate the relationships between night shift work, eating habits and body mass index (BMI) among Lebanese nurses. Methods A total of 307 nurses were randomly selected from five hospitals located in Beirut. Data about demographic and professional characteristics, anthropometric measures, dietary habits and intakes were collected through a validated questionnaire. To study the relationship between night shift work, eating habits and BMI, chi-square test, t-test and logistic regressions were used. Results The majority of nurses (78. 2%) had irregular meals timing with a significant decrease in the number of complete meals consumed during the day and an increase in the number of snacks consumed during night (p<0. 05). The most consumed snacks during night shifts were sweets and potato chips. The findings highlighted that BMI and waist circumference significantly increased with the number of years of work (r=0.175; p<0.05) and the cumulative number of night shifts hours over the entire work history (r=0.135/p< 0. 05). Conclusion: Night shift work is positively associated with abnormal eating patterns and BMI among Lebanese nurses. However the increase in BMI is not related to eating habits.
Tumour Content Ratio Matters for Detecting Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Mutation by Cobas Test in Small Biopsies; a Retrospective Study

Abstract
Background
Recent studies indicate the benefit of treatment with osimertinib over that with conventional epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) for untreated EGFR -mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Cobas ver2 is the only companion diagnostic method for detecting EGFR mutations with osimertinib treatment. We clinically experience false negative cases with this test, but its actual sensitivity is unknown. Moreover, no study has suggested the importance of tumour dissection, and most facilities do not routinely perform them on small biopsies. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the sensitivity of cobas in clinical practice and clarify the role of dissection as a component of the cobas testing.
Methods
We examined 132 patients with EGFR -mutated NSCLC diagnosed by bronchoscopy and confirmed with PCR clamp. Patients were tested with cobas and the EGFR -positive rate was calculated. Samples with undetected EGFR mutations were retested after tumour dissection and the rate of samples whose EGFR mutation was corrected to positive was assessed. To evaluate tumour cellularity, the tumour content ratio was assessed by calculating tumour cell count over the total cell count on the slide.
Results
The positive rate of EGFR mutation identification was 76% with cobas, although EGFR mutation-negative patients retained responses to TKI therapy equivalent to positive patients did; however, the tumour content ratio of negative samples was significantly lower than that of positive samples. Twenty-nine negative samples underwent dissection and 24% were corrected to positive. Moreover, 53% of the samples with a tumour content ratio below 10% was negative for cobas, but 33% of these turned positive after dissection.
Conclusions
Cobas had a high false negative rate in clinical practice, and tumour content ratio might be associated with this rate. Dissection could improve the sensitivity of cobas, especially in samples with low tumour cellularity.
