ESTUDO DO ÍNDICE DE VEGETAÇÃO E TEMPERATURA DA SUPERFÍCIE TERRESTRE NA ÁREA DE PROTEÇÃO AMBIENTAL TRIUNFO DO XINGU (PA) UTILIZANDO O GOOGLE EARTH ENGINE
Authors: Azevedo Laízy de Santana , Barbosa Leonardo Carlos 
Published: December 2020

As áreas de preservação ambiental no Estado do Pará sofrem com a falta de estudos científicos sobre os efeitos das mudanças de uso da terra e da temperatura da superfície terrestre. Neste contexto, este estudo visa analisar o Índice de vegetação por Diferença Normalizada (NDVI) e verificar o comportamento da temperatura superficial da terra na Área de Proteção Ambiental (APA) Triunfo do Xingu, no estado do Pará, entre os anos 2000 e 2019 utilizando a plataforma Google Earth Engine (GEE). Os resultados obtidos mostraram que a temperaturas da superfície terrestre na área de estudo, variou em média de 26,79º C para o ano 2000 a 28,90º C para o ano 2019. Os NDVIs mostraram diminuição representativa da vegetação entre os 20 anos estudados indicando mudanças ocorridas em uma área de aproximadamente 828 km² ( 4,93 % da área total da APA). Os resultados mostraram que apesar das mudanças identificadas na região de estudo, grande parte da cobertura vegetal foi conservada.

Authors: Mohseni Fatemeh , Hassanzadeh Mojdeh , Jahromi Marzieh Kargar 
Published: December 2020

Background:
Since women refer to the maternity hospital, they undergo vaginal examination
for the investigation of cervical dilation, cervical effacement, fetal head position, and amniotic
membrane status. Through this way, the health care team can monitor the delivery process and
make proper decisions based on the women’s conditions. However, this can cause discomfort and
dissatisfaction among women. One of the main goals of health systems is moving towards increasing
patient satisfaction. This study aims to assess the effect of redesigning of childbirth room on
mothers’ satisfaction.

Methods:
This quasi-experimental study was conducted on 128 term pregnant women (37-42 weeks
of gestation) referred to the maternity ward of Amir-Al-Momenin hospital, Gerash, Fars province,
Iran. The participants were divided into two groups of 64. In the control group, women were examined
vaginally in the previous childbirth room (without a new design) and in the intervention group,
women were examined in a room with a new design. One day after delivery, satisfaction was evaluated
in both groups using a valid and reliable researcher-made questionnaire.

Results:
The results of comparing the mean rank of satisfaction and the mean satisfaction score, one
day after delivery, between the two groups showed that in the intervention group there was a higher
level of satisfaction than the control group.

:
Results showed that pregnant women’s satisfaction with a vaginal examination in the intervention
group was higher than control group one day after childbirth.

Conclusion:
The results indicated that redesigning of childbirth room, patient centric care, and privacy
could improve pregnant women’s satisfaction with the vaginal examination.

Published: December 2020

Endocrine Disrupting compounds (EDCs) are exogenous materials that can interfere with the functions of the endocrine system. Research has demonstrated that pyrethroid compounds affect endocrine function. Transfluthrin belongs to the pyrethroid group that is widely used. These compounds could interact with estrogen receptor Î± and may increase the expression of estrogen receptor Î± in rat testis. Aim: to determine the effect of subchronic inhaled transfluthrin exposure on the expression of estrogen receptor Î± (ERÎ±). Method: we used 35 adult male Wistar rats as experimental animals, which were randomly divided into 5 groups (n=7 per group): negative control group (rats without treatment), solvent control group (rats exposed to n-hexane solvent), and three treatment groups of subchronic inhaled transfluthrin: 0.1 mg/ml (treatment 1),Â 0.2 mg/ml (treatment 2) and 0.4 mg/ml (treatment 3), treated for 60 days. The immunohistochemical (IHC) staining was used to assess the expression of ERÎ±. Result: there was a tendency for an increase in ERÎ± expression with the addition of a transfluthrin dose. ER Î± in negative control group, solvent control group, treatment 1 group, treatment 2 group, and treatment 3 group was 16.75 Â± 5.01 %; 16.64 Â± 13.00 %; 19.31 Â± 6.52 %; 25.63 Â± 7.08 %, and 28.79 Â± 20.31 %; p>0.05, respectively. There was a weak positive correlation between the dose of transfluthrin with ERÎ± expression (r = 0.38, p = 0.025). Conclusion: subchronic inhalation exposure of transfluthrin in rats showed a tendency to increased the expression of ERÎ± (dose-dependent). There is a weak positive correlation between the dose of transfluthrin with ERÎ± expression.Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
Lean Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD)
Authors: Fachrureza Mochamad , Pratomo Bogi 
Published: December 2020

Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) is a condition that can develop into advanced liver disease. The NAFLD spectrum includes simple steatosis, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), liver fibrosis, and liver cirrhosis to hepatocellular carcinoma. One of the underlying pathophysiologies is insulin resistance found in metabolic syndrome. People with metabolic syndrome are not always obese, and NAFLD can also be found in this group, known as lean NAFLD, which has different metabolic characteristics. Metabolic characteristics of lean NAFLD include high levels of transaminases and insulin, low insulin sensitivity, low fasting glucose, low necroinflammatory activity, and liver fibrosis. Some related factors are methionine and choline deficiency, excessive acyl-coA expression, and PNPLA3 gene polymorphism. Lean NAFLD is an interesting topic to discuss because practitioners' awareness of lean NAFLD is lower compared to obese patients. NAFLD is a risk factor for chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, kidney disease, colorectal, atrial fibrillation, and hypothyroidism, so it is essential to be recognized by clinicians. To date, there are no guidelines or recommendations that discuss specific treatments in this lean NAFLD population.Â Â
Socioeconomic Disparities in Social Distancing During the COVID-19 Pandemic in the United States: Observational Study
Authors: Garnier Romain , Benetka Jan R , Kraemer John , Bansal Shweta 
Published: December 2020

Background
Eliminating disparities in the burden of COVID-19 requires equitable access to control measures across socio-economic groups. Limited research on socio-economic differences in mobility hampers our ability to understand whether inequalities in social distancing are occurring during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic.

Objective
We aimed to assess how mobility patterns have varied across the United States during the COVID-19 pandemic and to identify associations with socioeconomic factors of populations.

Methods
We used anonymized mobility data from tens of millions of devices to measure the speed and depth of social distancing at the county level in the United States between February and May 2020, the period during which social distancing was widespread in this country. Using linear mixed models, we assessed the associations between social distancing and socioeconomic variables, including the proportion of people in the population below the poverty level, the proportion of Black people, the proportion of essential workers, and the population density.

Results
We found that the speed, depth, and duration of social distancing in the United States are heterogeneous. We particularly show that social distancing is slower and less intense in counties with higher proportions of people below the poverty level and essential workers; in contrast, we show that social distancing is intensely adopted in counties with higher population densities and larger Black populations.

Conclusions
Socioeconomic inequalities appear to be associated with the levels of adoption of social distancing, potentially resulting in wide-ranging differences in the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in communities across the United States. These inequalities are likely to amplify existing health disparities and must be addressed to ensure the success of ongoing pandemic mitigation efforts.

Iminosugar 1-Deoxynojirimycin (DNJ) sebagai Antiviral Infeksi Virus Dengue
Authors: Adnan Muhammad Luthfi 
Published: December 2020

Abstract— Dengue fever (DF), dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF), and dengue shock syndrome (DSS) caused by the DENV virus are among the global problems regarding mosquito-borne viral infections. The DENV virus is transmitted through Aedes aegypti causing clinical manifestations that can cause critical illness for patients. The need for effective antiviral therapy is needed to treat DENV virus infections. 1-Deoxynojirimycin (DNJ), one of the many imino sugars found in mulberry leaves and several strains of bacteria, has potential as an antiviral against DENV virus infection. The antiviral activity of DNJ works as an inhibitor of the α-glucosidase enzyme which is important in virus secretion so that it affects the infection rate. DNJ also has the effect of boosting the immune system to initiate an immune response to a viral infection. Further research is needed to develop DNJ as an effective antiviral DENV in the future. Keywords: antiviral, dengue, iminosugar, therapy

Published: December 2020

Abstract

Introduction: European gerontological research confirms that accelerated aging of the population will lead to a pronounced occurrence of target groups of functionally capable older people. Lifelong learning is a tool that enables an active post-retirement period in order to enhance cognitive mental capacities, prevent dementia, and overcome the intergenerational gap. The aim of this paper is to develop strategies in the field of lifelong learning for older adults through SWOT analysis.

Methods: A qualitative study on lifelong learning for older adults was conducted during the month of November 2019 using 4 SWOT matrices which were subsequently analyzed and integrated into one common matrix. Four strategies were developed based on this template.

Results: The analysis of the SWOT matrix showed that lifelong learning contributes most to a sense of belonging, prevention of social isolation, prevention of dementia, and better personal satisfaction. The biggest obstacles for older people when it comes to participating in lifelong learning programs are finances, physical illness, and a lack of understanding from their family members and the wider society for this kind of activity.

Discussion: Lifelong learning contributes to a long-term maintenance of cognitive processes of participants involved in education processes. Lifelong learning provides the opportunity to promote older people’s health regardless of the formal education they received in early adulthood.

Conclusion: Learning and further education are not only the indicators of active aging, but also a need for older people to master new tools so that they can actively participate and contribute to the society.
A Comparison of Morphometric Indices, Mineralization Level of Long Bones and Selected Blood Parameters in Hens of Three Breeds
Authors: Skomorucha Iwona , Sosnówka-Czajka Ewa 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
The aim of the study was to compare morphometric indices and the mineralization level of humerus, femur and tibia in Leghorn (H-22), Sussex (S-66) and Rhode Island Red (R-11) hens at different age (weeks 6, 16, 45 and 64), as well as some blood parameters. The material for the experiment was one-day old chicks of breeds: Leghorn (H-22), Sussex (S-66) and Rhode Island Red – RIR (R-11), which were separated into three groups. At 6, 16, 45 and 64 weeks of the study, 10 birds selected from each group were weighed, slaughtered, and their right femurs, tibiae and humeri were dissected. After removing soft tissues, the bones were weighed and measured for length, diameter, and the Seedor index (SI) was calculated. The bones were analysed for the content of calcium (Ca), phosphorus (P) and crude ash (CA). At 64 weeks, blood was collected from the hens and analysed for the concentration of Ca, P, pyridinoline and deoxypyridinoline. The study showed that hen breed had an effect mostly on morphometric indices of the bones such as bone weight and diameter, and the Seedor index (SI), while the age of birds had an effect on the bone mineralization level up to 45 weeks of age. The bone mineralization did not decrease in the studied breeds of hens at the end of the laying period. It was also found that heavier birds (RIR) had greater diameter bones and a higher SI, but the content of ash and minerals in the bones of that breed was generally similar to the Leghorn and Sussex hens. RIR hens exhibited higher plasma phosphorus concentration compared to Sussex hens. This may suggest that RIR birds have a slightly stronger bone system compared to Leghorn and Sussex hens.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate antioxidant, antibacterial, and anticholinesterase activities of different extracts of an uninvestigated endemic species Bellevalia mauritanica Pomel, and identification of its phenolic and flavonoid content by a comprehensive and validated LC-MS/MS method using 37 phytochemical standards. Moreover, the phytochemical profiling of the studied extracts was accomplished by LC-MS-IT-TOF technique. Among all the tested extracts, ethyl acetate (EtOAc) of BRCE (bulbs-roots crude extract) was the most active one. It exhibited a medium antibacterial activity, good inhibition of acetylcholinesterase and a good antioxidant activity in ABTS•+ (2,2’-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonique), DPPH• (1,1’-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical), and superoxyde DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide) alkaline scavenging assays. LC-MS/MS analysis revealed that EtOAc extract had caffeic acid (1240.7 µg/g extract) and chloroform extract had vanillin (2048.5 µg/g extract) in considerable amounts. They also contained good amounts of certain phytochemicals such as protocatechuic acid (274.3 and 145.2 µg/g extract), p-coumaric acid (382.8 and 310.9 µg/g extract), ferulic acid (361.2 and 969.4 µg/g extract) and kaempferol (146.7 and 150.6 µg/g extract) respectively. LC-MS-IT-TOF screening revealed the presence of 91 major phytochemicals in the three extracts derived from bulb-roots crude extract.
On the convergence difference sequences and the related operator norms
Authors: Baliarsingh P. , Nayak L. , Samantaray S. 
Published: December 2020

Abstract
In this note, we discuss the definitions of the difference sequences defined earlier by Kızmaz (1981), Et and Çolak (1995), Malkowsky et al. (2007), Başar (2012), Baliarsingh (2013, 2015) and many others. Several authors have defined the difference sequence spaces and studied their various properties. It is quite natural to analyze the convergence of the corresponding sequences. As a part of this work, a convergence analysis of difference sequence of fractional order defined earlier is presented. It is demonstrated that the convergence of the fractional difference sequence is dynamic in nature and some of the results involved are also inconsistent. We provide certain stronger conditions on the primary sequence and the results due to earlier authors are substantially modified. Some illustrative examples are provided for each point of the modifications. Results on certain operator norms related to the difference operator of fractional order are also determined.
