Authors: Saini Bhawna , Kumar Mohit , Bandyopadhyay Arkapal 
Published: October 2019

<p>Hyper-pigmentation is a common skin condition in which increased melanin production results in darker patches of skin. Although hyper-pigmentation is harmless but still mostly people wish to get rid of them because of increasing craze of beautification in India. Topical corticosteroids (TC) application showed quick amelioration of post-inflammatory hyper-pigmentation patches. Prolonged and unsupervised use of TC leads to skin atrophy and reappearance of hyper-pigmentation patches. We present two cases of hyper-pigmentation induced by TC misuse. In case-1, a 20 year old female came to OPD with a complaint of hyper-pigmentation and itch sensation along with drug history of Betnovate cream for the last 2 years for acne treatment. On examination, she showed signs of hyper-pigmentation on cheeks. She was counselled to stop the further use of Betnovate cream and prescribed demelanizing agents along with sunscreen and emollients. The patches improved significantly with above management within 15 days. In case-2, a 33 year old female came to OPD with complaints of redness over whole face, increased facial hair growth and burning sensation along with drug history of using Betnovate cream for 2 years. On examination she showed signs of hyper-pigmentation and redness on cheeks, bruise and tearing of skin and increased facial hair growth. She was counselled to stop the further use of Betnovate cream. She was prescribed retinoic acid cream, sunscreen agents, anti-allergic tablets and emollient cream. The patches improved significantly with above management within 15 days.</p><p class="abstract"> </p>

Published: October 2019

Çocuklarda ön planda motor bozukluklarla seyreden serebral palsi
(SP) tedavisinde amaç, fonksiyonelliği artırmak, yetenekleri geliştirmek ve
hareket, bilişsel gelişim, sosyal etkileşim ve bağımsızlık açısından sağlığı
sürdürmek olmalıdır. SP rehabilitasyonunda nörofizyolojik yaklaşımlar (bobath,
vojta, rood yöntemleri), konvansiyonel egzersizler, elektriksel stimulasyon,
zorunlu kullanım tedavisi, iş uğraşı terapisi, ortezleme ve yardımcı cihazlar
gibi çeşitli yöntemler kullanılmaktadır. Ek olarak hippoterapi, hidroterapi (su
içi egzersizler), oyun terapisi, akupunktur, masaj, suit terapi, kraniosakral
terapi ve feldenkrais gibi tedavi yöntemleri de uygulanabilir. Su içi yaklaşımlar SP’li
çocukların rehabilitasyonunda popüler tedavi yöntemlerinden biridir. Su içi aktivitelerin zindelik halini,
fonksiyonu ve katılımı etkileme potansiyeli olabilir. Çocuğun
aktif olduğu rehabilitasyon yaklaşımlarının nöroplastisiteyi indüklediği
düşünülmektedir ve bu yaklaşımlar su içi ortamda uygulanabilir. Su içi egzersizler
çocuklara fonksiyonel durumu, mobiliteyi ve kendine güveni artıran, yeni
hareket paternlerini öğrenmeyi sağlayan sayısız deneyim fırsatı sunar. Kaldırma
kuvveti, viskozite ve hidrostatik basınç suyun vücudu asiste eden ya da direnç
gösteren fiziksel özellikleridir. Karada uygulanan egzersiz yaklaşımları su içi
ortama uyarlanabileceği gibi su içi tedavilere özgü bazı yaklaşımlar da
(Halliwick Terapi, Watsu, Bad Ragaz Halka Metodu) mevcuttur. Sıklıkla yüzme
başta olmak üzere aerobik egzersizler uygulanır. Her çocuk kendine özgü su içi egzersiz programına
ihtiyaç duyar. Su içi egzersizler SP’li çocukların spastisiteleri, motor
fonksiyonları, aerobik kapasiteleri, yaşam kaliteleri ve sosyal ilişkileri
üzerine etkili olabilir. Bu derlemenin
amacı SP’li çocuklarda su içi egzersiz uygulamalarına ve etkilerine literatüre
dayalı olarak genel bir bakış sağlamaktır.
El proemio de Parménides y el arte del acertijo
Authors: Gálvez Garduño Rafael 
Published: October 2019

Considero que sería prudente y conveniente hacer una revisión de los supuestos en que se apoya nuestra apreciación de los filósofos presocráticos, a quienes Aristóteles conceptuaba como pensadores torpes y balbucientes, y los estudiosos de nuestro tiempo como "los hombres primitivos del pensamiento", y empezar a formarnos de ellos un nuevo concepto, más justo y objetivo, pues me parece haber encontrado en el Poema de Parménides a un autor de sorprendente y esclarecido ingenio.

El cazador cazado: un relato yaqui de venados
Authors: Guerrero Valenzuela Lilián , Gutiérrez Aranda Paola 
Published: October 2019

El texto yaqui que Lilián Guerrero y Paola Gutiérrez presentan fue recolectado en 2010 en Estación Vícam, Sonora. El texto “U yoeme maasom aamu (El cazador de venados)” narra la historia de un hombre que era muy buen cazador pero para el que la caza se volvió una obsesión; él comenzó a cazar a diario sin respetar la naturaleza de la caza ni la población de los venados. Más tarde, el hombre fue castigado por sus acciones. Un venado negro cazó al hombre pero éste no murió sino que se convirtió en una especie de animal mitad venado y mitad humano que tenía que vivir en el bosque por sí mismo. Las autoras también comentan la relevancia del venado en la cultura yaqui, y mencionan algunas otras historias sobre este animal sagrado.

Essa pesquisa teve como foco identificar áreas susceptíveis à desertificação a partir do estudo espaço temporal de imagens orbitais, na bacia do rio Moxotó, nos anos de 1995, 2006 e 2016. Assim, partiu-se do pressuposto que a estabilização de solos degradados, desnudos ou com vegetação muito rala, ao longo dos anos, no contexto de mudanças climáticas, podem potencializar processos desertificativos nas regiões semiáridas. Para tanto, aplicou-se a técnica de Modelo Linear de Mistura Espectral - MLME, Programação Álgebra de mapas. Foram pesquisados dados pluviométricos, eventos ENOS e realizado trabalho de campo. Os resultados mostraram que a bacia do rio Moxotó apresenta aproximadamente 32% de áreas vegetadas, conservadas durante os 21 anos de estudo, 28% de áreas degradadas, 21% de áreas que foram recuperadas, 9% de áreas com potenciais à desertificação, e 10% de áreas de corpos hídricos, nuvens e sombras durante o período de estudo. Os municípios mais afetados na bacia do rio Moxotó, estão situados no Estado de Pernambuco e compreendem Ibimirim, Inajá e Custódia. No Estado de Alagoas, os municípios afetados são Mata Grande, Pariconha e Delmiro Gouveia. No âmbito da gestão ambiental, os resultados poderão contribuir na discussão sobre as formas de manejo sustentáveis em áreas degradadas e subsidiar a tomada de decisão quanto à implantação de ações e programas que possam apoiar o desenvolvimento territorial com sustentabilidade.

Published: October 2019

Aim: The effects of integrated, organic and biodynamic management on soil quality and the growth and morphological development of Riesling grapevines were assessed during the first 4 years of a long-term field trial in Geisenheim, Germany. The overall aim was to understand the effects of these different viticultural practices on soil quality and plant morphology as the basis for product quality.Methods and results: As indicators of soil quality, earthworm abundance and the activity of selected enzymes were assessed. The vegetative and reproductive development of the grapevines, as well as their susceptibility to fungal diseases in the field, wood and grape composition, and grape yield, were investigated. Individual variables were subjected to analysis of variance. Additionally, all variables were subjected to multivariate principal component analysis. Compared with plots under integrated management, plots under the two biological treatments were characterized by higher soil quality and lower vegetative growth and grape yield, and therefore higher exposure of grapes and lower grape cluster compactness, and, probably as a result of these morphological differences, lower incidence of acetic acid rot. Principal component analysis clearly differentiated the three treatments, and showed that biodynamic management had more pronounced effects than organic management in terms of enhanced soil fertility and reduction of vegetative growth.Conclusions: In the present study, organic and especially biodynamic management resulted in a morphology favouring production of high-quality grapes. The treatments differed in terms of fertilization and plant protection methods as well as choice of cover crops. Therefore, further research is necessary with respect to root growth and the nitrogen and water uptake dynamics of vines and cover crops. The differences between grapes produced under organic and biodynamic management emphasize the need for more research on the mode of action of biodynamic preparations.Significance and impact of the study: In recent years, both winegrowers and consumers have expressed steadily growing interest in organic and especially biodynamic wine production. The present study contributes to a better understanding of the effects on grapevine growth and morphological development of shifting to these methods as a way to increase product quality.

Abstract
Background: To investigate whether molecular rapid active screening and infection-prevention and control（IPC）interventions can reduce the colonization and infection of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) in a general emergency intensive care unit (EICU). Methods: The study was designed as a before-and-after quasi-experiment. It was conducted in 3 stages. During stage 1, April 2018, the environment was prepared and the staff in EICU was trained. Stage 2 was the main experimental stage from May 2018 to January 2019. The active screening was tested by semi-nested real-time fluorescent PCR (polymerase chain reaction) detection with rectal swabs from all the patients on admission to EICU and the results would be feedback in 1 hour and other IPC interventions were conducted in strict supervision in this stage. In the last stage (stage 3), February 2019-April 2019, only active screening was strictly executed. Other IPC interventions were carried out by health workers without supervision. In the meantime, the atient information and culture results from clinical laboratory from January 2017-April 2019 were collected. Results: In this 1-year study, a total of 217 patients were enrolled. There were 23.04% of the patients were initially colonized or infected with CRE as tested by active molecular screening. The clinical culture detection rate of CRE colonization/infection was 3.37% during the baseline stage (before this study was carried out), from January 2017-March 2018. The rate decreased significantly to 1.20% (p<0.05) during the main experimental period in which active screening and IPC intervention were executed strictly. However, the rate increased again to 6 .12% in stage 3 in which only active screening were carried out in supervision. Based on the clinical characteristics of the EICU patients, we found there's a higher probability that the patients had invasive devices or skin-barrier damage on admission or had antibiotic use before admission were colonized or infected with CRE (p<0.05). Conclusions : Rapid active screening by molecular detection and other IPC interventions conducted in supervision showed a significant reduction of CRE in nosocomial infection. The key to reduce the spread of CRE in the EICU is that all medical staff and healthcare workers execute IPC interventions strictly.

Abstract
Background Influenza H3N2 virus has a faster evolution rate than other types of influenza viruses. This study was performed to better understand the molecular evolution of influenza H3N2 in Qinghai Province, China in 2017.Methods Complete sequences of eight gene segments of two influenza H3N2 isolates in 2017 in Qinghai Province were sequenced and analyzed by MEGA 6.06 software.Results Phylogenetic analysis showed that two Qinghai H3N2 isolates were relatively close to the 2016–2017 vaccine strain, 3C.2a-A/Hong Kong/4801/2014. In HA protein, compared with the 2015-2016 WHO recommended vaccine strain A/Switzerland/971 5293/2013, six amino acid substitutions were observed in epitopes A and B in Qinghai isolates in 2017, however, only two amino acid substitutions were observed in epitopes A and B in Qinghai isolates compared with the A/Hong Kong/4801/2014, which indicated 2016-2017 vaccine strain might have a better protection against the strains circulating in Qinghai Province in 2017 . Besides, amino acid substitution of K160T at the glycosylation site of HA and H75P in PB1-F2 in the two Qinghai isolates might affect the antibodies binding ability and the virulence of influenza virus. And there was no key amino acid substitution in the key sites of segment NA, M, NP, NS, PA and PB2.Conclusions The presence of several antigenic site mutations in Qinghai H3N2 isolates confirms the evolution of circulating H3N2 strains. Enhancing the surveillance of influenza epidemic by whole genome sequencing is important to monitor whether the selected vaccine strains are protective against the circulating strains in Qinghai Province.

Abstract
The American crocodile ( Crocodylus acutus ) is a widely distributed species across coastal and brackish areas of the Neotropical region of the Americas and the Greater Antilles. Available information on patterns of genetic differentiation in C. acutus shows a complex structuring influenced by interspecific interactions (mainly hybridization) and anthropogenic actions (mostly historical hunting, recent poaching and unintentional translocation of individuals). Moreover, recent work suggests C. acutus as a complex of cryptic species with preliminary proposals for taxonomic reassignment. Until recently, most population genetics research has primarily focused on present hybrid zones with other new world crocodilians . In this study, we used data on mitochondrial DNA control region and 11 nuclear polymorphic microsatellite loci to assess the degree of population structure of C. acutus in South America, North America, Central America and the Greater Antilles. We used traditional genetic differentiation indices, Bayesian clustering and multivariate methods to create a more comprehensive picture of the genetic relationships within the species across its range. Analyses of mtDNA and microsatellite loci show evidence of strong population genetic structure in the American crocodile, with unique populations in each sampling locality. Our results support previous findings showing large degrees of genetic differentiation between the continental and the Greater Antillean C. acutus. We report three new haplotypes unique to Venezuela, which are considerably less distant from the Central and North American haplotypes than to the Greater Antillean ones. Our findings reveal genetic population differentiation between Cuban and Jamaican C. acutus and offer the first evidence of strong genetic differentiation among the populations of Greater Antillean C. acutus. The information generated here is crucial for local and regional planning and conservation of the species, and contributes to the ongoing discussion on potential taxonomic revision for C. acutus .
