La “transparencia” en la hagiografía de sor Sebastiana
Authors: Korbová Katarína 
Published: May 2020

El trabajo presente trata el problema de la “transparencia” del lenguaje ascético-místico en la “vida” de sor Sebastiana de la SS. Trinidad, una importante religiosa novohispana, cuya vida fue marcada por los encuentros sobrenaturales con Dios. El discurso tiene que ver con la cuestión de la corporalidad del discurso barroco. El texto desentraña diferentes recursos estilísticos y temáticos, comparándolos con las imágenes de santa Teresa de Jesús. Se centra ante todo en los símbolos que tienen que ver con el campo semántico de la luz.

A new Stelis (Orchidaceae: Pleurothallidinae) from the Western Andes of Colombia
Authors: Reina-Rodríguez Guillermo A. , Karremans Adam P. , López-Machado Francisco , Cruz-Salcedo Jimena 
Published: May 2020

Stelis excentrica, a new species endemic to the Cauca slope of the western Andes, municipality of Cali, Valle del Cauca, Colombia, is described and illustrated. It was found in the northern part of the Farallones de Cali National Park, in the vicinity of the protected area “El Danubio” administered by the Cali mayoralty. Stelis excentrica is similar to Stelis gigantissima from Ecuador but differs in the ocher-green flowers (vs. dark purple), the reniform petals (vs. flabellate petals), subquadrate lip with a minute apicule (vs. subcuneate without apicule). Reaching up to 30.6 mm from the apex of the dorsal sepal to the apex of the lateral sepal, Stelis excentrica probably has the largest flowers reported in any member of Stelis subgen. Stelis. Its 60 cm long inflorescence is only rivaled by that of Stelis gigantissima. Ecological notes, in situ photographs, typus illustration, maps, and a composite plate are provided.

Основні теореми теорії 2F-планарних відображень псевдоріманових просторів з f-структурою
Authors: Курбатова Ірина , Коновенко Надія 
Published: May 2020

В статті вивчаються базові питання теорії 2F-планарних відображень многовидів, які наділені афінорною структурою певного типу. Раніше ми довели, що псевдорімановий простір з абсолютно паралельною f-структурою є добутком двох псевдоріманових просторів, один з яких - келеровий, а клас псевдоріманових просторів з абсолютно паралельною f-структурою є замкнутим відносно розглянутих відображень.
Крім того, за умовою коваріантної сталості афінора f-cтруктури у відображуваних просторах нетривіальні 2F-планарні відображення можуть бути трьох типів: повні і канонічні I, II типів, і в залежності від типу 2F-планарне відображення індукує на компонентах добутку відображуваних просторів геодезичне, голоморфо-проективне або афінне відображення.
Нами були побудовані геометричні об'єкти, інваріантні відносно розглянутих відображень всіх типів, виділено класи просторів, які допускають 2F-планарне відображення на плоский простір, а також знайдено їх метрики в спеціальній системі координат.
Далі виникає закономірне питання про те, чи існують інші класи просторів, які допускають 2F-планарні відображення, і як їх знайти. У цій статті, використовуючи методи, розроблені в теорії геодезичних відображень, ми зводимо основні рівняння 2F-планарних відображень основного типу до виду, який допускає ефективне дослідження - це так звана нова форма основних рівнянь. Використовуючи цю нову форму, ми, зокрема, показали, що псевдорімановий простір з абсолютно паралельною f-структурою, в якому існує конциркулярне або квазіконциркулярне векторне поле, допускає нетривіальне 2F-планарне відображення основного типу. Доведені теореми дають регулярний метод, що дозволяє для будь-якого псевдоріманового простору з абсолютно паралельною f-структурою (Vn, gij , Fhi) або знайти всі простори $(\overline{V}_n, \overline{g}_{ij}, \overline{F}^h_i )$, на які Vn допускає 2F-планарне відображення основного типу, або довести, що таких просторів немає.

Significance Statement
Studies have suggested that estrogens may protect mice from AKI. Estrogen sulfotransferase (SULT1E1, or EST) plays an important role in estrogen homeostasis by sulfonating and deactivating estrogens, but studies of SULT1E1’s role in AKI are lacking. Using the ischemia-reperfusion model of AKI, the authors demonstrated that genetic ablation or pharmacologic inhibition of Sult1e1 can mitigate AKI in both male and female mice in a sex hormone-independent manner. A gene profiling analysis indicated that the renoprotective effect was associated with increased vitamin D receptor signaling. Liver-specific reconstitution of Sult1e1 resensitizes male Sult1e1 knockout mice to AKI, indicating that liver Sult1e1is required for ischemic AKI in males. These findings suggest that pharmacologic inhibition of SULT1E1 might represent a novel approach for clinical management of AKI.

Background
Studies have suggested that estrogens may protect mice from AKI. Estrogen sulfotransferase (SULT1E1, or EST) plays an important role in estrogen homeostasis by sulfonating and deactivating estrogens, but studies on the role of SULT1E1 in AKI are lacking.

Methods
We used the renal ischemia-reperfusion model to investigate the role of SULT1E1 in AKI. We subjected wild-type mice, Sult1e1 knockout mice, and Sult1e1 knockout mice with liver-specific reconstitution of SULT1E1 expression to bilateral renal ischemia-reperfusion or sham surgery, either in the absence or presence of gonadectomy. We assessed relevant biochemical, histologic, and gene expression markers of kidney injury. We also used wild-type mice treated with the SULT1E1 inhibitor triclosan to determine the effect of pharmacologic inhibition of SULT1E1 on AKI.

Results
AKI induced the expression of Sult1e1 in a tissue-specific and sex-specific manner. It induced expression of Sult1e1 in the liver in both male and female mice, but Sult1e1 induction in the kidney occurred only in male mice. Genetic knockout or pharmacologic inhibition of Sult1e1 protected mice of both sexes from AKI, independent of the presence of sex hormones. Instead, a gene profiling analysis indicated that the renoprotective effect was associated with increased vitamin D receptor signaling. Liver-specific transgenic reconstitution of SULT1E1 in Sult1e1 knockout mice abolished the protection in male mice but not in female mice, indicating that Sult1e1’s effect on AKI was also tissue-specific and sex-specific.

Conclusions

SULT1E1 appears to have a novel function in the pathogenesis of AKI. Our findings suggest that inhibitors of SULT1E1 might have therapeutic utility in the clinical management of AKI.

<p>By placing ourselves in the theoretical paradigm which takes into account the sociological dimension of a translation which undermines the myth of an objective translation and a transparent translator, we sought to study the translator’s subjective, ideological, emotional interventions. The analysis of the translator's traces, revealing a conscious manipulation which seeks to produce a persuasive effect or a more or less unconscious interpretation imbued with the translator's own emotions will allow us to show the transformations that the pathemic expressions of the discourse (the emotional charge of the discourse, the ethos or the image that the author projects of himself, etc.) go through as well as the consequences got on the level of the identity construction of the conflict’s protagonists.</p><p> </p><p> </p>

Authors: Marto Natalia , Monteiro Emília C. 
Published: May 2020

The novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 is the cause of Coronavirus Disease 2019, a new illness with no effective treatment or vaccine that has reached pandemic proportions. In this document, we analyze how health authorities and agencies around the world position themselves regarding the off-label use of repurposed drugs or new investigational drugs to treat Coronavirus Disease 2019. We review the most promising candidate medicines, including available evidence, clinical recommendations and current options for access. Our concluding remarks stress the importance of administering off-label and investigational drugs in the setting of clinical trials, or at least in standardized scenarios, to generate as much scientific knowledge as achievable while engaging in the best efforts to treat patients and save lives.
Wine aging authentication through Near Infrared Spectroscopy: a feasibility study on chips and barrel aged wines
Authors: Nardi Tiziana , Petrozziello Maurizio , Girotto Raffaele , Fugaro Michele , Mazzei Raffaele Antonio , Scuppa Stefano 
Published: May 2020

Aim: This research primarily focuses on exploring the suitability of near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy with multivariate data analysis as a tool to classify commercial wines depending on the aging process. It is aimed at discriminating between wines aged in barrels and those obtained using alternative products (chips).Methods and Results: Around 75 commercial barrel-aged red wines issued from the appellation “Valpolicella” (Italy) were analyzed. Moreover, 15 wines were aged at the experimental winery of the Research Centre of Viticulture and Enology in Asti using different types of commercial oak chips. Wines were analyzed in transmittance using NIR regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. Principal component analysis (PCA) and partial least squares (PLS) analyses were used to classify wines: a preliminary step was carried out using PCA that showed interesting groups in the whole data set. Next, in order to test if combined explanatory variables made it possible to discriminate treatments and how they are useful to predict which group a new observation will belong to, an orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) was carried out. Several wine groups were considered, defined by factors including the aging process, the type of oak used for aging (wood barriques, barrels or chips) and the wine typologies (differing for some enological parameters).Conclusions: Overall, OPLS-DA models correctly classified >90 % of the wines. These results demonstrate the potential of combining spectroscopy with chemometric data analysis as a rapid method to classify wines according to their aging process. Nevertheless, the development of a mathematical model for predictive purposes is a complex task: indeed, large databases for different wines should be constructed, and other spectral IR zones might be evaluated for improving the method performance in determining wine aging process.Significance and impact of the study: This study contributes to the development of an easy-to-use and easily applicable NIR method for correlating the infrared “fingerprint” spectrum with the aging process in wines, aimed at implementing a technique able to discriminate wines aged with different wood types, that can be progressively used in the laboratory for routine fraud inspection.

Yoghurt is a well-known fermented dairy product which produced using a combination of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) of Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus bulgaricus and L. acidophillus as fermentation starters. Cow milk is usually used as a raw ingredient. The LAB-based local yoghurt starter (S. thermophilus RRAM-01 (ST), L. bulgaricus RRAM-01 (LB) and L. acidophilus IIA-2B4 (LA)) were previously isolated from milk and meat, nevertheless had not been extensively attempted to be used in yoghurt production. This study aimed to evaluate the characteristics of cow and goat milk based yoghurt produced by using a single local strater of S. thermophilus RRAM-01 (ST) or L. bulgaricus RRAM-01 (LB) or L. acidophilus IIA-2B4 (LA). The yoghurts were produced through addition of the starter (3% v/v each) with 1010 CFU mL-1 of initial population, and then fermented at room temperature for 24 hr. The result revealed that initial population of LAB in goat’s milk yoghurt fermented by ST or LB were significantly higher than that of by LA. Yet, after 24-hour of storage at room temperature, the total population of LA increased and reached final population which was higher than LB or ST. Meanwhile, cow’s milk yoghurt fermented by LB had the highest population of at the initial day (D0), while after fermentation the highest population were observed on LB or LA cow’s milk yoghurt. Overall goat’s milk yoghurt had significantly lower pH values than the cow’s milk yoghurt. These were accompanied by higher the total titrated acid (TTA) of goat’s milk yoghurt than that of cow’s milk yoghurt. Based on pH and TAT values, it was found that ST bacteria produced significantly higher total acidity goat’s milk yoghurt, followed by LB and LA. However, the type of culture had no effect on total acidity of cow's milk yoghurt.

Published: May 2020

➤ There is no absolute test for the preoperative diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI); thus, clinical practice relies on a combination of supportive tests and criteria.➤ Novel serum and synovial tests have improved our ability to diagnose PJI. The 2018 evidence-based algorithm for PJI diagnosis provides weighted scores for serum markers, as well as synovial markers, to facilitate diagnosis when major criteria such as positive cultures or a sinus tract are not present.➤ Culture-independent technologies such as next-generation sequencing can facilitate pathogen identification, particularly in the setting of culture-negative PJI.➤ Despite recent developments, PJI diagnosis remains challenging and warrants further innovation.

Published: May 2020

Case:
We present a 44-year-old man diagnosed with atraumatic, idiopathic acute compartment syndrome (ACS) of the left lower extremity treated with an emergent single incision fasciotomy with the release of the anterior and lateral compartments. The patient's condition was diagnosed without delay and successfully treated, resulting in a full recovery.

Conclusion:
Immediate diagnosis and emergent surgical treatment of atraumatic ACS is critical in preventing surgical complications and preserving function of the limb. Recognition of this condition existing in the absence of the typical history of an inciting event or underlying predisposition is important to avoid missing the need for emergent surgical intervention.

Case:A healthy 36-year-old man developed compartment syndrome of the posterior thigh with an associated sciatic nerve palsy secondary to an acute proximal hamstring tendon avulsion injury.Conclusion:Compartment syndrome of the thigh is rare and is usually associated with high-energy trauma. Atraumatic causes have been described, typically involving the anterior compartment. Posterior thigh compartment syndrome is especially uncommon. This case highlights the potential occurrence of posterior thigh compartment syndrome after proximal hamstring tendon rupture. Given the morbidity associated with compartment syndrome, it is important to recognize the risk factors and injury patterns that can cause thigh compartment syndrome.

<p><em>Vascular streak dieback</em> (VSD) merupakan penyakit penting pada tanaman kakao. Penyakit ini telah berkembang luas di sentra produksi kakao di Indonesia dan menyebabkan kerugian 30-45% dari produksi. Luas serangan VSD di Indonesia pada tahun 2007 adalah 70.000 ha dengan kehilangan hasil sebesar Rp 405 643 680 000/tahun, dan kerugian terus meningkat dari tahun ke tahun. Tujuan dari revieu ini adalah menginformasikan tentang penyakit VSD dan perkembangan teknologi pengendaliannya. Penyakit VSD adalah penyakit pembuluh kayu yang menyerang tanaman kakao. Gejala serangan ditunjukkan oleh daun yang mengalami klorosis, gugur dan meranting, hingga akhirnya tanaman tidak berproduksi. Penyakit VSD disebabkan oleh cendawan <em>Ceratobasidium theobromae, </em>yang bersifat obligat parasit, tersebar melalui spora udara (basidiospora), melalui bahan tanam atau bibit kakao yang telah terinfeksi. Keberhasilan spora untuk berkecambah dan melakukan penetrasi jaringan daun sangat tergantung pada kondisi lingkungan. Karakteristik <em>C theobromae </em>yang sulit diperbanyak pada medium buatan menjadikan penelitian VSD sangat tergantung dengan kondisi inokulum di lapang. Komponen pengendalian yang telah dikembangkan berupa varietas atau klon kakao tahan VSD, aplikasi fungisida, agens hayati dan kultur teknis.
