Published: April 2020

The aim of this study was to find out the potential of agricultural and food industry wastes as the constituents of pig feed to improve pigs’ performance and to reduce the feeding cost. This study was conducted at Manokwari Regency, West Papua Province. The agricultural and food industry wastes were collected from two traditional market, and four small-scale food industries. All materials used as feed were proximately analyzed to determine their nutritional values. Average daily gain, feed consumption and feed coversion ratio were taken to determine the pigs performance. Feed cost using local market prices was estimated in knowing the ability of agricultural and food industry wastes to substitutes commercial feed. The result of this research indicates that the use of agricultural and food industries wastes as an alternative components of pigs’ feed to substitute the commercial feed do not reduce the pigs’ performance and production. Among three feeds that use of agricultural and food industry wastes, feed with the combination of 75% waste and 25% commercial feed had the best feed conversion ratio, namely 2.36. On the other hand, a mixture of 25% wastes and 75% commercial feed was the most economic one, and able to reduce the feeding cost of grower pig up to 48.00%.Key words: agricultural waste, food industry wastes, grower period, pig, feed

Published: April 2020

The objectives of this study were to isolate lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from Indonesian local goat colostrum and to characterize their suitable properties for bacteriocin production. LAB was isolated from goat colostrum. The characterization of LAB was carried out based on the shape, colony dispersal, and catalase test. For antimicrobial activity, LAB was tested by a well diffusion method followed by an antimicrobial activity test against pathogenic bacteria B. cereus, E.coli, S. aureus and S. thypimurium. A total of 8 strains of LAB were successfully isolated from goat colostrum and coded CT1 to CT8. All the isolates were rod-shaped, single or paired colonies, negative catalase, and glucose fermenting LAB. The isolates consist of four L. casei, two L. brevis or L. plantarum, one L. rhamnosus, and one, L. paracasei. CT3 isolate has 84% similarity with L. plantarum and 14.3% with L. brevis 1while CT8 isolate is 71% similar to L. brevis 1 and 28.9% to L. plantarum. Purity evaluation showed that CT3 and CT8 were L. plantarum. Well difusion test showed that all LAB strains possess very solid resistances, with diameters over 17 mm, against B. cereus, E.coli, S. aureus and S. thypimurium. The average inhibitory resistance against B. Cereus, E.coli, S.aureus and S.typhimurium was was 17.68 mm, 19.38, 19.30 and 19.03 mm, respectively. LAB isolated from Indonesian local goat colostrum are potential candidates for bacteriocin-producing bacteria.

The objective of this study was to determine the characteristics and composition of soft cheese manufactured from goat milk, which contained probiotic bacteria, and stored at different temperatures for up to 90 days. Soft cheese was manufactured from fresh Indonesian Etawah goat milk, with a mix starter culture containing Lactobacillus casei and Bifidobacterium longum (1:1). Animal rennet was added to facilitate curding. Fresh cheese produced was wrapped in linen clothes and stored under two different temperature conditions, which were high temperature (H:13-15oC) and low temperature (L: 8-10oC) for up to 90 days. Results showed that goat cheese was characterized as soft with mild goaty flavor, contained no less than 108 CFU of probiotic lactic acid bacteria, pH of 4.6, 0.5% free fatty acid, 57% moisture, crude 15% crude protein, 22% total fat and 2.5% mineral. Cheese underwent dehydration during storage which caused an increase in the relative proportion of protein, fat and mineral. The evolution of cheese’s pH, titratable acidity and composition was partly affected by storage temperature. At the end of storage periods (90 days) goat cheese was characterized as semi hard and, on average, contained 1.3-1.5% titratable acidity, pH of 4.94-4.95, 31.22-37.06% moisture, 24.59-24.09% crude protein, 33.51-36.17% total fat, and 5.64-5.53% minerals.. Cheese stored at high temperature has slight growth of mold at its surface, which was anormal condition during for cheese ripening. In conclusion, acceptable characteristics and composition of probiotic-containing cheese can be manufactured from milk of Indonesian Etawah goats and stored at temperature of 8-10oC for 90 days.

Neste artigo pretendemos refletir sobre os modos de estruturação do campo empírico da igualdade de género no seio das cooperativas em Portugal. A existência de uma conexão profunda e íntima entre o regime jurídico das cooperativas e a igualdade de género serviu de ponto de partida para este estudo. A igualdade constitui um valor estruturante do regime jurídico das cooperativas, em estrita ligação com os princípios cooperativos, com particular destaque para os princípios da gestão democrática, da adesão voluntária e livre, da educação, formação e informação e do interesse pela comunidade.
Para além de uma igualdade formal, que resulta da legislação cooperativa, dos estatutos e dos regulamentos internos da cooperativa, o estudo pretende averiguar se existe uma igualdade de gênero construída. Com esse fim, a partir de uma fonte secundária, procedemos à análise documental da Base de Dados do Portal de Credenciação, a qual representa 749 cooperativas com credencial válida à data de 30.11.2018, fornecida pela CASES – Cooperativa António Sérgio para a Economia Social. A Base de Dados resulta do fornecimento, por parte das próprias cooperativas, de informação relativa ao exercício de 2017, quanto ao: número de membros da Mesa da Assembleia-Geral, número de membros do Órgão de Administração e número de membros do Órgão de Fiscalização. Para o efeito, realizaram-se testes não paramétricos para avaliar se existem diferenças significativas nos papeis desempenhados por mulheres e homens nas cooperativas portuguesas e se essas diferem por ramo, região, dimensão e antiguidade da cooperativa. Os dados apresentados revelam uma hierarquização clara na participação das mulheres entre as três grandes categorias em análise. De forma decrescente, as mulheres assumem maior peso no trabalho voluntário (65,7%), seguido do trabalho remunerado (58,8%) (com uma sub-hierarquização entre mulheres não cooperadoras e cooperadoras) e, por fim, nos órgãos de administração e de fiscalização (22,9%).

Abstract
Background: Tuberculosis is a serious health risk, for people living with human immune deficiency virus worldwide, and the burden of TB/HIV infection is still high in Ethiopia in particular. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the predictors of tuberculosis infection among adults visiting anti-retroviral treatment center in East and West Gojjam Zone, northwest, Ethiopia. Methods: Institution based unmatched case-control study was employed to determine the predictors of tuberculosis infection among adults visiting anti-retroviral treatment center in East and West Gojjam Zone, Northwest, Ethiopia from March 7-April 15, 2017. A total of 552 participants were participated in the study (139 Cases and 413 controls). Cases were confirmed with active TB and infected HIV, and controls were HIV positive adults with non-TB. All cases in each health facility who confirmed by acid-fast bacilli, culture and gene expert were considered as TB positive. However, controls were selected by using simple random sampling technique through the above diagnostic criteria and the data were collected with Face to face interview as well as patient medical record were utilized, and the quality of the data were assured, checked, coded, cleaned and entered in EPI-Data version 3.1 and exported to SPSS version 20 for the analysis. Result: Of the total sample (556), just about 552(99.2%) were participated in the study among this 47.5% were females and 58.9% were rural. Behavioral and modifiable biological risk factors: alcohol users (AOR=2.33; 95%CI:1.34,4.07),BMI<18.5kg/m2 (AOR=3.03;95%CI:1.79,5.14), CD4 count ≤200 cells/µl (AOR=2.34;95%CI:1.89,2.79) and between 201-499 cells/µl (AOR=2.63; 95%CI: 1.01,6.84), bedridden and ambulatory (AOR=3.3;95%CI:1.70,6.29 and AOR=8.2;95%CI:4.34,15.64),respectively. TB history in the family (AOR=3.00; 95%CI: 1.57, 5.74) were predictors for TB infection. Taking CPT (AOR=0.36; 95%CI: 0.21, 0.62) and having early WHO clinical stage I or II (AOR=0.34; 95%CI: 0.20, 0.56) had protective effect against TB infection. Conclusion: From this study, it has been concluded that alcohol users, BMI<18.5kg/m², CD4 count <499 cells/µl, bedridden and ambulatory and TB history were highly associated in TB-HIV co-infected adults. Strengthen screening more frequently, CPT Prophlaxysis and treated promptly important to reduce TB co-morbidity.

Abstract
Background: Mortality among children under five years of age admitted to malnutrition units in sub-Saharan Africa remains high. The burden of HIV infection, a major risk factor for mortality among patients with severe acute malnutrition (SAM), has reduced due to concerted prevention and treatment strategies. None the less, anecdotal reports from the malnutrition unit at Uganda’s National Referral Hospital (NRH) indicate that there is high mortality among patients with severe acute malnutrition (SAM) in routine care. Uganda has recently adopted the revised World Health Organization (WHO) treatment guidelines for SAM to improve outcomes. The mortality among children with SAM in routine care has not been recently elucidated. We report the magnitude and factors associated with mortality among children under five years of age admitted to the NRH for routine care of SAM.Methods: This was a cohort study of all severely malnourished children admitted to the NRH between June and October 2017. The primary outcome was two-week mortality. Mortality was calculated using simple proportions and Cox regression analysis was used to determine factors associated with time to mortality. Data was entered into Epidata and analysed using Stata v14. Results: Two-hundred-sixty (98.5%) children: 59.6% male; mean age 14.4 (SD 9.4) months, completed two weeks of follow-up. Of these, 25.2 % (95% CI 19.9-30.4%) died. In-hospital mortality was 20.7% (95% CI15.9-25.6%). The prevalence of HIV infection was 12.2%. Factors associated with mortality included: positive HIV status (AHR 2.2, (95% CI; 1.2-4.2), p=0.014), bacteraemia (AHR 9 (95% CI 3.4-23.0), p<0.001, and low glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), AHR 3.2; (95% CI 1.7-6.3), p=0.001). Conclusions: A 25% mortality among children with severe malnutrition remains unacceptably high despite significant reduction in HIV prevalence. Children with SAM who are HIV infected, have eGFR below 60 mL/min/1.73m2 or have bacteraemia, are more likely to die. Further studies to explore the relationship between eGFR and mortality among children with SAM are needed. Studies to establish efficacious antibiotics are urgently required to inform treatment guidelines for children with SAM.

Abstract
Background Prolonged and high intraperitoneal pressure may lead to impaired intestinal mucosal blood perfusion, increase the risk of surgery and complications, and affect the postoperative recovery of patients. However, the literature reports on the effect of abdominal hypertension on gastrointestinal function mainly focus on animal experiments, and there are few clinical reports. Our study intends to explore the effect of increased CO2 pneumoperitoneum pressure during laparoscopy on intestinal mucosal barrier injury. Methods A prospective study was conducted on 180 patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy in the First People's Hospital of Shuangliu District, Chengdu from October 2017 to March 2018. A randomized，single-blind，controlled study was performed in the 180 patients who were allocated into the 10 mmHg group(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa)，12 mmHg group and 15 mmHg group based on a random number table and setting value of intraoperative CO2 pneumoperitoneum pressure (10 mmHg，12 mmHg and 15 mmHg)．Main observation indexes such as intraoperative conditions and postoperative recovery were recorded, and the results of serum tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interleukin 1 (IL-1), D-lactic acid, blood endotoxin levels，plasma diamine oxidase (DAO) activity were detected. The measurement data of normal distribution were expressed as mean ± standard deviation (`x+S), and one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison between groups. The measurement data with non-normal distribution are represented by M (QR) and non-parametric test is adopted, count data were presented as the n(%), and comparison among groups was analyzed using the chi-square test. Results 180 patients were screened out, 60 patients in each group. Eight patients dropped out during the study (2 in 10 mmHg group, 1 in 12 mmHg group and 5 in 15 mmHg group). All patients in the three groups were cured and discharged without bleeding, secondary bile duct stones, bile leakage and reoperation. There was no significant difference in serum TNF-a, IL-1, D-lactic acid, endotoxin level and plasma diamine oxidase (DAO) among the three groups after operation (P>0.05).Conclusion Laparoscopic surgery under 15 mmHg CO2 pneumoperitoneum did not cause intestinal mucosal barrier damage, and the operation under the pneumoperitoneum was safe and reliable. Registry：This study was registered with the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry with the registry number of ChiCTR1900023936.Registered 19 June ，2019（retrospectively registered）.

Abstract

Background The 2013–2015 Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) outbreak in Guinea resulted in community mistrust that influenced health care service utilization. This study aimed to assess whether EVD-related memories affect post-outbreak health-seeking behaviours for children under five years of age with febrile illnesses in Guéckédou district, Guinea. Methods This cross-sectional study was conducted by interviewing caregivers of children under five years of age in the sub-district most affected by the EVD outbreak (Guèndembou) and the least affected sub-district (Bolodou) in Guéckédou district. Memories of the outbreak were referred to as EVD-related fears in the post-EVD period, which was based on a series of questions regarding current feelings. Results More caregivers in Guèndembou (19.9%; n=39) reported the death of family members or friends due to EVD compared to Bolodou (6.9%; n=14; P<0.001). The mean EVD fear score of caregivers was significantly higher in Guèndembou (3.0; SD: 3.0) than in Bolodou (2.0; SD: 1.1) (p<0.001). Caregivers with a fear score above the median were 1.68 times more likely to seek care than those whose fear score was equal to or below the median; however, this difference was not statistically significant. Caregivers who reported family members’ or friends’ death due to EVD were also more likely to seek care (AOR=2.12; 95%CI: 0.91-4.91), however, with no statistical significance. Only residing in the EVD-most affected sub-district of Guèndembou (AOR=1.74; 95%CI: 1·09-2.79) was positively associated with seeking care.Conclusions This study reveals that community members in the rural district of Guéckédou still live with fear related to EVD nearly two years after the outbreak. It calls for more efforts in the health domain to preserve communities’ key values and address the psychosocial effect of EVD in rural Guinea.

Abstract
Background : Previous studies have always focused on the impact of various meteorological factors on bacillary dysentery (BD). However, only few studies have investigated the effects of climate and air pollutants on BD incidence simultaneously. This study aimed to investigate the effects of temperature and air pollutants on BD in Lanzhou. Methods: Daily data of BD cases and environmental factors from 2014 to 2017 were collected. A generalized additive model (GAM) was conducted to explore the relationship between environmental factors and BD. Then a distributed lag non-linear model (DLNM) was developed to assess the lag and cumulative effect. Furthermore, this study explored the variability across gender and age groups. Results: A total of 7102 cases of BD were notified over the study period. High temperature can significantly increase the risk of BD during the whole lag period, temperature has different exposure effects on different genders and age groups. With 9℃ as the reference value, each 1℃ rise in temperature result in a 4.8% (RR=1.048, 95%CI: 0.996, 1.103) increase in the number of cases BD at lag 0 day. With 50μg/m 3 as the reference value, each 5μg/m 3 rise in PM2.5 caused a 11.3% (RR=1.113, 95%CI: 1.066, 1.162) increase in the number of BD cases at lag 0. Low concentration of PM10 in the lag of 10-14 days can significantly increase the risk of BD, while high concentration PM10 in the lag of 6-14 days can significantly increase the risk of BD. Conclusions: Temperature, PM2.5 and PM10 are closely related to the incidence of bacillary dysentery. Our findings suggest adaptation plans that target vulnerable populations in susceptible communities should be developed to reduce health risks.

Abstract
Background: Overexpression of Discoidin domain receptor 1(DDR1) is known to enhance the malignancy of breast cancer considerably. This study reports the identification of a potent DDR1 inhibitor, Nilotinib for the treatment of breast cancer. Methods: MTT assay was used to evaluate the inhibitory activity of Nilotinib and meantime we used flow cytometry to evaluate the pro-apoptotic activity of Nilotinib against MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231. Expression of DDR1 was manipulated in MCF-7 cell lines with low level DDR1 expression by transfecting with plasmids containing by shRNA. The effect of DDR1 or treatment with Nilotinib on cell migration was assayed. The expression of p-DDR1, DDR1, p-ERK1/2, ERK1/2 and E-cadherin，Vimentin, Snail1 were detected by western blot and immuno-fluorescent staining.Results: Nilotinib against MCF-7 (IC50=0.403 μM) and MDA-MB-231 (IC50=0.819 μM) and also indicated induced apoptotic cell death after co-cuturing with Nilotinib (500 nM), apoptosis rate is 29.60 % ± 2.19% and 18.75 % ± 2.30% respectively. Moreover, Nilotinib effectually blocked cellular migration of MCF-7. Interestingly, Knock-down DDR1 could significantly block the migration of breast cancer, meantime the sensitivity of MCF-7 to Nilotinib was reduced.Conclusion: Targeting DDR1 therapeutically could potentially affect survival and influence metabolism in breast cancer, and Nilotinib could as a candidate for the treatment of breast cancer.

Abstract
Background: In recent years, lung cancer (LC) incidence has increased in Iran. The use of opium and its derivatives (O&D) has increased as well. This study aimed to investigate the association between the use of O&D and LC incidence.Methods: In this case-control study conducted in Kerman, Iran; 140 patients with lung cancer and 280 healthy controls matched by age, sex, and place of residence were included. Data, including O&D use, cigarette smoking, alcohol use, and diet, were collected using a structured questionnaire. The relation between the use of O&D and LC was evaluated using conditional logistic regression adjusted for daily intake of fruit, vegetables, red meat, and hydrogenated fats.Results: Opium ever-use was associated with an increased risk of LC (Adjusted Odds Ratio (AOR) = 7.95, 95% CI: 3.78 -16.73). Participants were divided into low and high use groups based on the median of opium use in the control group, which was 87.5 grams-years. A significant dose-response relation was observed between the use of O&D; and the relation was stronger in high users (AOR low users = 7.47, 95% CI: 2.33-23.98 and AOR high users= 11.57, 95% CI: 2.25-59.49). Also, LC was higher among participants starting the use of O&D at younger ages (≤ 41 years old vs never users, AOR = 5.78, 95 % CI: 2.36 - 14.14) compared to those who started at an older age ( 41 years old vs never users, AOR = 3.93, 95 % CI: 1.22 - 12.62).Conclusion: The results of this study show that opium can be considered as a strong dose-related risk factor for LC. Thus, stronger policies should be implemented to reduce the use of opium in Iran and other world countries.
