Shear Measurement Bias Due to Spatially Varying Spectral Energy Distributions in Galaxies
Authors: Kamath Sowmya , Meyers Joshua E. , Burchat Patricia R. ,   (LSST Dark Energy Science Collaboration)
Published: December 2019

Abstract
Galaxy color gradients (CGs)—i.e., spectral energy distributions that vary across the galaxy profile—will impact galaxy shape measurements when the modeled point-spread function (PSF) corresponds to that for a galaxy with spatially uniform color. This paper describes the techniques and results of a study of the expected impact of galaxy CGs on weak lensing measurements with the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) when the PSF size depends on wavelength. The bias on cosmic shear measurements from CGs is computed both for parametric bulge+disk galaxy simulations and for more realistic chromatic galaxy surface brightness profiles based on Hubble Space Telescope V- and I-band images in the All-Wavelength Extended Groth Strip International Survey (AEGIS). For the parametric galaxies, and for the more realistic galaxies derived from AEGIS galaxies with a sufficient signal-to-noise ratio that CG bias can be isolated, the predicted multiplicative shear biases due to CGs are found to be at least a factor of two below the LSST full-depth requirement on the total systematic uncertainty in the redshift-dependent shear calibration. The analysis code and data products are publicly available (https://github.com/sowmyakth/measure_cg_bias).

Published: December 2019

Introduction: Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is potent vasoconstrictive peptide and elevated ET-1 levels are associated with hypertension, endothelial dysfunction and atherosclerosis. Research on (ET-1) has demonstrated that elevated ET-1 levels in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease leads to systemic hypertension. The prevalence of simple renal cysts increases with age and the association with simple renal cyst and hypertension is not clear. The aim of this study was to investigate the ET-1 levels in patients with simple renal cyst and compare them with those in healthy adults.
Materials and methods: The study included patients that underwent laparoscopic renal cyst decortication in the Department of Urology and healthy controls. Serum and urinary ET-1 levels were measured before surgery and one month after it in the patients with simple renal cyst. Serum ET-1 levels were measured in healthy adult patients. Ambulatory blood pressure was measured in all patients. Glomerular filtration rate was measured according to the chronic kidney disease epidemiology collaboration formula.
Results: Thirty-two patients were included in the present study. Of these, 16 patients with simple renal cyst were allocated into group 1 and 16 healthy patients - in group 2. There was no significant difference between systolic and diastolic blood pressure between the groups (p=0.820 and p=0.618, respectively). Serum EL-1 levels were significantly lower in group 1 than those in group 2 (p=0.036). Interestingly, serum EL-1 levels were increased after laparoscopic cyst decortication and there was no significant difference with healthy patients (p=0.429).
Conclusions: The present study demonstrated that serum EL-1 level in patients with simple renal cyst was lower than that in healthy people. Further studies are needed to investigate the EL-1 levels in simple renal cyst patients.
Subchronic Central Administration of Cannabinoid Ligands Modulates Nociception in Bulbectomized Rats
Authors: Tashev Roman E. , Stavreva Galya Tz. , Velikova Margarita St. 
Published: December 2019

Introduction: Endocannabinoid system is involved in neuropsychiatric disorders such as major depression. The bilaterally olfactory bulbectomized rat is widely used as an animal model of depression. The removal of the olfactory bulbs produces behavioural, physiological, and neurochemical alterations resembling clinical depression. There is increasing evidence that highlights the important role of cannabinoid signalling in depression and nociception.
Aim: To investigate the effect of CB1 receptor agonist HU 210 and CB1 receptor antagonist SR 141716A administered icv subchronically (for 7 days) on nociception of rats with model of depression - bilateral olfactory bulbectomy (OBX).
Material and methods: Experimental model of depression - bilateral olfactory bulbectomy (OBX). Bilaterally olfactory bulbectomized rats were used as an experimental model of depression. HU 210 (5 &micro;g) or SR 141716A (3 &micro;g) were infused icv for 7 consecutive days, starting 15 days after the olfactory bulbectomy. Nociception was examined by applying paw pressure test (analgesy-meter) evaluating the rat pain threshold. On day 7, five minutes after the last microinjection, the rats were tested in an analgesy-meter and their mechanically evoked pain responses were measured in arbitrary units (AU).
Results: Microinjections of HU 210 (5 &micro;g) significantly decreased the pain threshold in olfactory bulbectomized rats, while SR 141716A (3 &micro;g) exerted antinociceptive effect by increasing the pain threshold.
Conclusions: Data point to an involvement of CB1 receptors in depression-like behaviour and nociception in olfactory bulbectomized rats and support the data for the association between depressive disorder and pain pathways.
Optimization of pharmacotherapy of patients with prostate adenoma with hormonal and metabolic disordes: correction of vitamin D deficiency with “Aquadetrim”
Authors: Bratchikov Oleg I. , Tyuzikov Igor A. , Artishchev Sergey O. 
Published: December 2019

Introduction: Modern studies demonstrate an epidemiological and pathogenetic role of systemic hormonal and metabolic disorders in men with prostate adenoma (PA), so it is obvious that a pharmacotherapeutic correction of these disorders can increase the efficacy of the traditional therapy of the disease.
Aim of study: To investigate the frequency, relationships among themselves and with PA local parameters of key systemic hormonal and metabolic disorders (obesity, insulin resistance, testosterone deficiency, vitamin D deficiency) and to develop practical algorithms for optimizing diagnosis and management based on an integrative approach.
Material and Methods: The results of a comprehensive examination of 160 patients with PA (main group; average age 62.3 ± 4.2 years) and 30 healthy men without PA of the same age (control group), including: collection of anamnesis and complaints; questionnaires; physical, hormonal and sonographic studies, – are presented. Pharmacotherapeutic correction methods were tested in some patients of the main group. The data was processed using descriptive and comparative statistics.
Results and Discussion: In the patients with PA, a significantly higher frequency of concomitant systemic hormonal and metabolic disorders formed at a younger age was established, compared to the men without PA, and significantly worse local characteristics of PA compared to the patients with PA without such (p < 0.05). Reliable connections of some studied systemic hormonal and metabolic disorders with one another and with local parameters of PA (p < 0.05) were revealed. A more severe vitamin D deficiency in the patients with PA compared to the control group was revealed, and the safety and a significant positive effect of its drug compensation on the parameters of hormonal and metabolic status and PA in D-deficient men with PA were shown (p < 0.05).
Conclusion: The results of the study confirm an important role of the studied systemic hormonal and metabolic disorders in the pathogenesis of PA and the need for their diagnosis and pharmacotherapeutic correction in all patients with PA on the basis of an integrative approach, according to the proposed algorithms.
Comparative study of qualitative and quantitative characters of grape cultivar 'Mavrodafni' (Vitis vinifera L.) and 'Renio' grown in different regions of the Protected Designation of Origin Mavrodafni Patras

Published: December 2019

'Mavrodafni' (Vitis vinifera L.) is considered one of the oldest grapevine cultivars indigenous to the Greek vineyards, with western Peloponnese being its primary centre of cultivation. 'Renio' is considered to be either a biotype of 'Mavrodafni' or an altogether different cultivar. Both 'Mavrodafni' and 'Renio' can be found in the vineyards of the areas of cultivation, since 'Renio' is considered to be more productive compared to 'Mavrodafni' and, for this reason, it has gradually replaced 'Mavrodafni' from cultivation over the course of time.
'Mavrodafni' and 'Renio' contain appreciable amounts of quality characters of grape and must in terms of total polyphenol and total anthocyanins content in berry skins, depending on the different regions where they are cultivated and they would be worthy of further study and use for the production of different types of wines.

Published: December 2019

abstract
The immediate and long-term outcomes of 70 consecutive patients who underwent subaxial lateral mass fixation between June 1996 and June 2001 were reviewed. Intraoperative fluoroscopy and somatosensory evoked potential (SEP) monitoring were used in all patients. Immediate postoperative computed tomography (CT) was performed to determine screw trajectory and placement. Follow-up ranged from 2 to 7 years.
Postoperative CT showed 206 (58%) of 356 screws had unicorticate and 42% bicorticate purchase. Furthermore, 96 (27%) screws had suboptimal trajectory, but only 5 of these screws minimally penetrated the foramen transversarium without resultant vascular or neurological sequelae. A sudden unilateral intraoperative SEP amplitude decrease during screw placement in 2 patients resolved with screw removal and alteration of screw trajectory. The overall fusion success rate was 91.5% and screw pull-out developed in 2 patients.
The recommended drilling technique and trajectory 15°-25° rostral in the sagittal plane, 20°-30° lateral in the axial plane), supplemented bone grafting, and intraoperative SEP monitoring are all associated with good screw placement, fusion, and neurological outcome and are recommended for all lateral mass fusion procedures.

abstract
Forty-two patients who underwent decompressive surgery for cervical spondylotic myelopathy were studied. The pre- and postoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings and the Japanese Orthopedic Association score were analyzed to evaluate whether the different appearances of intramedullary high-signal intensity on T2-weighted MRI are related to the surgical prognosis. Magnetic resonance imaging signal intensities were classified as type 0 if no intramedullary high-signal intensity on T2-weighted images was noted, type 1 if high-signal intensity involved only one segment, and type 2 if high-signal intensity extended over two segments. Statistical analyses of the recovery ratio showed that type 0 and type 1 intramedullary high-signal intensity indicates better prognosis than type 2.

Sequoia sempervirens (D. Don) Endl. é uma conífera que produz madeira de elevada qualidade, com potencial de aplicação na indústria. No entanto, a espécie exibe baixas taxas de germinação. Este estudo foi dedicado à otimizar um protocolo para a multiplicação de brotos de S. sempervirens, através da micropropagação. Dois genótipos, adaptados ao Sul do Brasil, foram a fonte de explantes para o estudo da multiplicação in vitro. Utilizou-se o meio de cultura MS (Murashige Skoog) (50% de sua concentração original) complementado com reguladores de crescimento sob duas abordagens. Para a multiplicação, foram combinados ácido α-naftaleno acético (ANA) e 6-benzilaminopurina (BAP), em concentrações distintas. No segundo experimento foram testadas, separadamente, três concentrações de cintinas (BAP, cinetina e 2-isopentenladenina). ANA , na concentração 0,1 mg L-1, permitiu a produção de brotos com maior comprimento médio do ramo principal. O uso de cinetina, em baixas concentrações, proporcionou o melhor desempenho para a multiplicação de brotos, mas com desempenhos distintos, de acordo com o genótipo. Descrevemos uma recomendação dos reguladores de crescimento de plantas mais adequados e suas concentrações para a multiplicação de brotos de S. sempervirens, o que pode auxiliar trabalhos voltados para enraizamento e aclimatização adventícia.
Concepciones y prácticas con TIC. La construcción didáctica del tiempo histórico en la formación de profesores de Historia
Authors: López Filardo M.G. 
Published: December 2019

<p>El artículo describe las características y presenta los resultados preliminares de un estudio llevado a cabo en el área de la formación inicial del profesorado en Uruguay, que busca develar las concepciones de profesores de Historia sobre la enseñanza del tiempo histórico, y la manera en que, de acuerdo con su formación y experiencia profesional, desarrollan prácticas mediante la integración y el uso de Tecnologías de la Información y Comunicación (TIC) con el fin de facilitar y mejorar la comprensión de dicho concepto. El diseño de esta investigación, de corte cualitativo, basado en un estudio de casos múltiples, ha contado con la participación de un grupo de formadores de futuros docentes y otro de profesores noveles. La recolección de datos se ha realizado a través de entrevistas en profundidad, grupos focales, observaciones de clase y análisis de documentos. Los principales resultados indican que los sentidos y significados que los profesores atribuyen al uso de las TIC en la enseñanza de conceptos históricos, están determinados por sus concepciones epistemológicas, sujetas al campo disciplinar de formación y a sus experiencias docentes. Sus prácticas, fundadas en un sólido conocimiento disciplinar, impulsan formas de pensar históricamente, aunque no capitalizan la versatilidad de la tecnología digital para promover procesos de enseñanza innovadores. Por ende, un eje prioritario en la formación inicial del profesorado, es contribuir a que los profesores logren apropiarse, descubrir e imaginar entornos tecnológicos que potencien formas especializadas de construcción del conocimiento.</p>

Authors: Verma Neha , Jawaid Qamar 
Published: December 2019

A 40 year old female patient presented with a mass in the right eye, foreign body sensation and redness in the right eye for 6 months. Examination revealed a mass in the interpalpebral area, located in the superonasal quadrant, involving the bulbar conjunctiva and cornea. The mass was papillomatous, having a strawberry appearance, with multiple feeder vessels and was sharply demarcated. Visual acuity in the right eye was 6/6p, with full range of ocular movements. The left eye with a visual acuity of 6/6p was normal. AS-OCT performed revealed hyper-reflectivity and a thickened epithelium in the right eye. Histopathological examination confirmed it to be an infiltrating squamous cell carcinoma with moderate differentiation. The lesion was subjected to a wide excision together with intra-operative Mitomycin C (MMC) used in a concentration of 0.04%. Two 1 week courses of topical MMC 0.04% were given post-operatively. The patient was examined at 6 monthly intervals and no recurrence has been observed till third follow-up.
Conclusion: Mitomycin –C is an effective adjuvant in the management of OSSN.

Published: December 2019

Abstract
Since their discovery almost 50 years ago, boratabenzenes have become widely studied systems at the interface of organic, inorganic, and materials chemistry, mainly due to their use as stabilizing ligands for organometallic complexes. Together with their neutral analogues, the borabenzenes, this chapter provides a comprehensive and structured overview of the various synthetic methods for their construction. In addition, the conceptually different approaches to their corresponding metal complexes receive detailed review. The second part addresses the multifaceted reactivity of these aromatic boron heterocycles by outlining differences between the metal‐free and ‐bound forms.
Structure and Properties of Water in its Various States
Authors: Chaplin Martin F. 
Published: December 2019

Abstract
Water is a unique substance with properties that are not predictable from those of other materials. It has a complex phase space where all of its physical and structural forms possess unexpected properties. Mostly, these are consequences of the ability of the water molecule to form strongly hydrogen‐bonded intricate structures. The extensive hydrogen bonding provides water with the ability to transfer protons and electrons rapidly between the water molecules and to produce positively charged hydrogen ions and negatively charged hydroxide ions. In the many solid phases, each water molecule forms exactly four hydrogen bonds in a tetrahedral arrangement with two hydrogen atoms near each oxygen atom. This arrangement is also present, if much more loosely, in liquid water, where the overall structuring is far more complex. Such liquid water behaves as though it is a mixture of two liquids that change relative composition with variations in temperature and pressure. The properties of liquid water are particularly affected at low temperature when supercooled and at very low temperatures when water glasses are formed. Even gaseous water is affected by this hydrogen bonding.
Hydrogen Production from Wastewater by Biochemical Methods
Authors: Ramprakash Balasubramani , Karuppan Muthukumar 
Published: December 2019

AbstractThe environmental impacts associated with fossil fuels and depletion of their resources motivated the development of alternate fuels. Hydrogen is an attractive alternate fuel with high heating value and no environmental impact. Although hydrogen is majorly produced by steam reforming, biochemical production especially from carbohydrate rich wastes is of great interest. Hydrogen production from these wastes is carried out by indirect/direct biophotolysis, dark fermentation, two‐stage fermentation and photofermentation. The major constraints of these processes are low hydrogen evolution rate and less yield at large scale. However, effective pretreatment of substrates and inoculum maximize the yield of hydrogen. The factors influence the hydrogen production include nature of microorganism, biochemical process/reactor, temperature, pH, ionic strength, hydraulic retention time, hydrogen and carbon dioxide partial pressure, organic acid concentration, and C/N ratio. The commercial exploitation of biohydrogen production is hindered by lack of high potential microorganism and bioreactor. Hence, it demands multidisciplinary research to understand the fundamental underlying principles besides the development of microbial strains for industrial applications.
