BackgroundLow-frequency acupuncture is used to maintain skeletal muscle flexibility and improve joint range of motion; however, its definite effects are unclear. This study aimed to determine the effects of low-frequency acupuncture on muscle and fascial stiffness and ankle dorsiflexion range of motion.MethodsThe participants included 12 randomly selected healthy adults. The medial head of the gastrocnemius muscle was selected as the target muscle, and changes in hardness and dorsiflexion range of motion of the ankle joint in the deep fascia, muscle, and deep intermuscular fascia of the same region were measured before and after low-frequency acupuncture intervention. Acupuncture needles were inserted until they passed through the deep intermuscular fascia and electrically stimulated at a frequency of 2 Hz for 15 min. The 12 right legs were the intervention legs, and the 12 left legs were the non-intervention legs.ResultsIn the intervention leg, hardness increased in the deep fascia immediately after low-frequency acupuncture, but decreased in all regions (deep fascia, muscle, and deep intermuscular fascia) after 15 min. The rate of change in hardness was the greatest in the muscles and deep intermuscular fascia. Additionally, the ankle's dorsiflexion range of motion increased after 15 min. In contrast, the non-intervention leg showed no significant changes in stiffness or ankle dorsiflexion angle.ConclusionsLow-frequency acupuncture may decrease muscle stiffness and improve fascial gliding. The change in hardness tended to be greater in the deeper areas.

Abstract
A combined process enabled the selective synthesis of cubic- and tetragonal-Li7La3Zr2O12 with calcination for nanoparticles synthesized by induction thermal plasma. The effect of O2 partial pressure was investigated by adjusting O2 content within a constant sheath gas flow for plasma-synthesized nanoparticles prepared for calcination. Low O2 partial pressure led to spherical nanoparticles from the liquid mixture via homogeneous nucleation of ZrO2, while high O2 partial pressure produced irregular, highly aggregated particles from a liquid-solid mixture with homogeneous nucleation of La2Zr2O7. The rapid quenching rate induced amorphous-Li7La3Zr2O12, and higher O2 promoted slight crystallization to cubic-Li7La3Zr2O12. This result includes potential for the facile production of ultra-thin cubic-Li7La3Zr2O12 films suitable for all-solid-state lithium batteries.

ABSTRACT

Soil fauna is an important indicator of soil quality. This study aimed to evaluate soil fauna collected using pitfall traps and soil chemical and microbiological properties under different land uses in the Cerrado. The systems evaluated were soybean under 14-year no-till; soybean under 3-year no-till; eucalyptus rows; soybean grown between eucalyptus rows, and native Cerrado. Collected individuals were identified as classes, subclasses, order, or family classes. We evaluated the number of individuals trap

, total richness, average richness, Shannon Diversity Index, Pielou Evenness Index, total soil organic carbon (TOC), soil microbial activity, and soil chemical indicators. Data were submitted to one-way ANOVA, and means were compared by the Tukey Test (p<0.05). Principal component analysis and grouping analysis were performed among the groups and number of individuals. We identified 16 groups with a greater occurrence for Collembola, Acari, Formicidae, and Coleoptera. Systems containing threes provided a greater abundance of individuals. The largest populations occurred in the systems with the highest TOC levels. Components of the same silviagricultural system (soybean + eucalyptus) shared the same soil fauna groups, indicating a flow of individuals between these systems. The soybean adoption time under no-till systems does not change the population and diversity of soil fauna groups.

ABSTRACT
Integration of systems with pastures, using silvopastoral systems, can increase soil carbon levels, optimize land use, improve the quality and productivity of agricultural products, and promote the conservation of environmental resources. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of management practices of marandu grass at eucalyptus shading levels in a silvopastoral systems, on organic carbon and nitrogen stocks, and soil chemical properties in the Brazilian Cerrado. Environments with different light availability in the plots (SPS 55-60, SPS 50-55, SPS 45-50, and SPS 40-45 % shading) and a treatment with marandu grass in full sun were allocated. The pre-grazing management of marandu grass was 0.30, 0.40, 0.50 and 0.60 m in height. Soil chemical properties, organic carbon and nitrogen stocks were analyzed. The management of marandu grass at 0.50 m height in the silvopastoral systems provided higher levels of organic carbon, nitrogen, and organic matter in the soil and an increase in fertility, compared to monoculture pasture, with repercussions in two years. Due to greater nutrient cycling, the integration of eucalyptus and marandu grass pasture contributes to greater stocks of organic carbon and nitrogen in the soil strips closest to the tree row. Research on forage productivity, together with the soil quality of this study, will provide more data to ensure the sustainability of these ecosystems.

AbstractBACKGROUND: The piriformis muscle, an integral component of the deep gluteal region, exhibits a distinctive anatomical arrangement, coursing from the anterior sacrum to the greater trochanter of the femur. Piriformis Syndrome is a neuromuscular disorder characterized by the irritation of the sciatic nerve due to anatomical variations or dynamic factors involving piriformis muscle which commonly affects between the age group of 30 and 60, although can occur in younger individuals. It is more common in women than a men.
OBJECTIVE : The aim of this case study was to evaluate the effect of Muscle Energy Technique in a patient with Piriformis syndrome.
METHOD: A 25-year-old female diagnosed with Piriformis syndrome underwent physiotherapy intervention for six weeks involving MET along with conventional physiotherapy(stretching, strengthening, moist heat pack) focusing on pain, range of motion (ROM) of Hip joint, and function of lower limb. The outcomes were measured using Numerical Pain Rating Scale (NPRS), Hip Joint Goniometry and Lower Extremity Functional Scale (LEFS).
RESULTS: The scores improved significantly for all three outcome measures indicating a reduction in pain, improvement in Hip joint range of motion and function of the lower extremity .
CONCLUSION: Piriformis syndrome is a debilitating condition that can significantly influence one’s quality of life. This case report suggests that Muscle Energy Technique is beneficial in reducing pain, improving Hip ROM and enhancing function of lower extremity in patients suffering from this condition.

BACKGROUND -Peripheral facial palsy (PFP) is a condition that substantially alters facial function and has a noticeable impact on appearance. Precise evaluation of the level of functioning is required for objectivity in diagnosis of facial function and monitoring clinical changes while planning and evaluating therapeutic interventions for patients with PFP.
OBJECTIVE – The present study was conducted with an objective to find out the reliability and internal consistency of the Kinovea software based bi-dimensional tool in objectively evaluating Peripheral facial palsy.
METHODS- 40 Patients who were diagnosed with peripheral Facial palsy were categorized on stage of House Brackmann facial nerve grading scale. Landmarks were placed on face and image was captured in resting facial symmetry and video recording of different facial expressions like closing of eye, raising of eyebrows and smiling was performed by two different examiners. The data was processed by Kinovea software to measure different facial angles.
RESULTS -The intra-rater reliability (re-test reliability) for the measurement of the facial angles using Kinovea software at rest and movement analysis on both the affected and nonaffected sides was excellent (Rest-ICC-0.94, α>0.95)(Movement- ICC-0.92, α>0.98).The reliability between raters on analysis at rest and movement in both the affected and non-affected side were also excellent (Rest-ICC->0.96, α>0.96), (Movement-ICC>0.86, α>0.87).
CONCLUSION -Two-dimensional motion analysis system using Kinovea software can be considered as a reliable method for the assessment of unilateral Peripheral Facial Palsy and can be used extensively to detect deviation in facial angles in resting and movement.

Attraction of Tilloidea unifasciata (Fabricius, 1787) (Coleoptera: Cleridae) by synthetic sex attractants from the series ‘EFETOV-2’ in the Crimea
Authors: Efetov Konstantin A. , Kucherenko Elena E. 
Published: December 2024

Investigations of the biological activity of R- and S-enantiomers of butan-2-yl dodec-2-enoate (a patented name ‘EFETOV-2’) undertaken in the Crimea in 2013–2017 have shown the attractiveness of these substances for the males of Tilloidea unifasciata (Fabricius, 1787) (Coleoptera: Cleridae). T. unifasciata has been registered as non-target species in sticky traps with sex attractants from the series ‘EFETOV-2’ which are active for many Procridinae species (Lepidoptera: Zygaenidae). During our field work only the males (51 specimens) of T. unifasciata were captured in seven sites of the Crimean Peninsula. It gives reason to think that R- and S-enantiomers of butan-2-yl dodec-2-enoate (alone or in a racemic mixture) are sex attractants and are not aggregation attractants for this beetle.

Abstract
The FAST All Sky H I survey (FASHI) will cover the entire observable sky (∼22,000 square degrees) with the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST). With the currently released data, we perform an untargeted survey of 21 cm H i absorption galaxies at redshift z ≲ 0.09 over an area of about 10,000 square degrees. We have detected 51 H i absorbers, including 21 previously known and 30 new ones. The probability of occurrence for the H i absorbers in all H i galaxies is 1/1078. The radio flux densities of the FASHI absorbers are mainly concentrated in the range of S
1.4GHz = 10 ∼ 100 mJy, but also as low as 2.6 ± 0.4 mJy. We find that the host galaxies of the associated H i absorbers have relatively high star formation rates, and there is a negative correlation between the H i column density and the stellar mass in the host galaxy. Consequently, FAST has significantly improved the capabilities and performance for H i absorption observations and has provided a true untargeted survey of 21 cm H i absorption galaxies for such studies.
Le bestiaire exotique de Chypre à l’âge du Fer
Authors: Fourrier Sabine 
Published: December 2024

Le bestiaire de Chypre à l’âge du Fer est dominé par un nombre restreint de figures, omniprésentes : les bêtes à cornes (parmi lesquelles le taureau), le cheval et les oiseaux d’eau. Les animaux exotiques y sont extrêmement rares et le plus souvent isolés, à part le lion (et son dérivé monstrueux, le sphinx), dont l’image reproduit des modèles phéniciens. Encore faut-il noter que ces images ne sont pas diffusées sur tous les supports : leur quasi-absence parmi le répertoire coroplastique, art chypriote par excellence, est révélatrice. On s’intéresse ici à deux cas particuliers qui, malgré leurs différences, éclairent les modes de constitution du répertoire chypriote : la figure d’une bête sauvage, probablement dérivée du singe ; des animaux de style grec, mais en réalité égyptiens, sur les vases du style d’Amathonte.
No trespassing ?

Bien des récits circulent sur les singularités de la faune insulaire en Méditerranée, et la Crète n’y échappe pas. Le discours dominant, au cours du Ier millénaire av. J.-C., se scinde en deux grands courants : le premier, rapidement évoqué ici, insiste sur l’ancrage d’animaux endémiques investis d’une forte dimension identitaire. Le second, puissant et fameux, met à l’honneur la Crète : « bénie de Zeus » pour avoir abrité sa naissance et son enfance ainsi que pour l’avoir nourri, l’île ne peut ni engendrer d’animaux dangereux pour l’homme ni les laisser vivre sur son sol quand ils sont introduits d’ailleurs. En termes de circulations animales, on est donc bien mal servi – ce serait plutôt : « Circulez, il n’y a rien à voir ! » Pour autant, la Crète ne se ferme pas complétement à l’arrivée de nouvelles espèces.
