Abstract

OBJECTIVE
To identify clinical characteristics of, prognostic factors for, and long-term outcome of dogs with multiple acquired portosystemic shunts (MAPSSs) and determine whether survival time was associated with previous portosystemic shunt attenuation.

ANIMALS
72 client-owned dogs with MAPSSs.

PROCEDURES
Medical records of dogs in which MAPSSs had been diagnosed between January 2000 and August 2018 were reviewed for signalment, historic and diagnostic findings, management methods, and outcome.

RESULTS
Median survival time of dogs (n = 23) that died of causes related to MAPSSs was 580 days (range, 156 to 1,363 days). Factors significantly associated with dying of MAPSS-related versus unrelated causes included body weight, albumin concentration at the first and last recheck examinations, and cholesterol, total solids, and glucose concentrations at the last recheck examination. Dogs not receiving medical management or without signs of depressed mentation at the time of initial presentation were less likely to die of causes related to MAPSSs. Patient status (alive vs dead of causes related to MAPSSs vs dead of causes unrelated to MAPSSs vs dead of unknown causes) was not significantly associated with survival time.

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE
Survival time for dogs with MAPSSs was not shortened by previous portosystemic shunt attenuation surgery and was not different when death was versus was not related to MAPSSs. Dogs with MAPSSs that had progression of biochemical changes consistent with liver dysfunction were more likely to die of causes related to MAPSSs and were unlikely to live a normal lifespan.

Published: December 2021

Abstract

OBJECTIVE
To evaluate owner adherence to recommendations for follow-up examination of dogs and cats following orthopedic procedures and identify factors associated with adherence versus nonadherence.

SAMPLE
Medical records of 485 dogs and cats that underwent orthopedic surgery.

PROCEDURES
Cases were categorized as urgent or elective. Information obtained from the medical records consisted of species, age, body weight, proximity to the hospital, procedure cost, recommendations for coaptation, use of financial aid, and number of owners. Cases were considered adherent to follow-up recommendations if, at the latest visit or communication, no further visits were recommended. Cases were considered nonadherent if owners did not return for recommended follow-up visits.

RESULTS
Overall adherence to follow-up recommendations was 65.8% (319/485). Elective cases were 1.6 times as likely to be adherent to follow-up recommendations as were urgent cases, dog cases were 2.4 times as likely to be adherent as were cat cases, and cases with multiple owners listed were 2.1 times as likely to be adherent as were cases with 1 owner listed. Distance from the hospital had a statistically significant association with adherence, but the effect was not clinically important. Age, weight, coaptation, procedure cost, and use of financial aid were not significantly associated with adherence.

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE
The percentage of dogs and cats lost to follow-up following orthopedic surgery at an academic veterinary teaching hospital was substantial (166/485 [34.2%]). Efforts to improve follow-up adherence are especially indicated for animals undergoing urgent procedures, animals with single owners, and cats.

Abstract

OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the metastasis rate, survival time, and prognostic factors associated with appendicular or scapular osteosarcoma treated by limb amputation in cats.

ANIMALS
67 cats with histologically confirmed appendicular or scapular osteosarcoma treated by limb amputation.

PROCEDURES
This retrospective cohort study included cats with histologically confirmed appendicular or scapular osteosarcoma between January 1997 and December 2018. A questionnaire survey was conducted at veterinary clinics where limb amputation was performed. Distant metastasis, local recurrence, and lymph node metastasis rates and survival time were determined. Factors associated with distant metastasis and survival were investigated.

RESULTS
The distant metastasis rate after limb amputation was 41.9% (26/62). The overall distant metastasis rate was 46.3% (31/67), including 5 cats with distant metastasis at the time of amputation. Osteosarcoma of the humerus resulted in distant metastasis in 6 of 7 cases. Osteosarcoma of the humerus was significantly associated with distant metastasis in univariate and multivariate analyses (adjusted OR, 9.56). The rate of lymph node metastasis after limb amputation was 3.0% (2/66), and the local recurrence rate was 9.0% (6/67). The median survival time was 527 days. Age and tumor location were not significantly associated with survival time.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE
Distant metastasis occurs in approximately 40% of cats with appendicular or scapular osteosarcoma after limb amputation. In addition, osteosarcoma of the humerus has a particularly high incidence of distant metastasis. Detailed follow-up is therefore necessary, even after limb amputation, especially in cases of osteosarcoma of the humerus.

Microbial fuel cell consisting two main components which are anode and cathode materials. In the microbial fuel cell, both anode and cathode compartments are separated with a separator. Anode generates the protons and electrons while cathode converts protons into water with the presence electrons and oxygen. During the Microbial fuel cell operation, the performance of anode is very crucial due to it provides the protons and electrons. Hence, the high efficiency microbial fuel cell is very related with the high anode performance. This work addressed to the enrichment process of electroactive bacteria (EAB) in anode of microbial fuel cell. In this work, some parameters such as current generations, , and pH changes were used to assess the enrichment process of EAB was reached. In addition, the presence of EAB on the anode surface was identified based on the morphology of anode surface. The removal of COD and the pH value were determined by using the American public health analysis method and pH tester, respectively. The morphology of anode surface was analysed by using a scanning electron microscope. Whereas, current generation was tested by using a mustimeter. The removal of COD and final pH were obtained 71.4 % and 5.7, respectively. The optimum current generation was observed 0.19 mA. The surface morphology of anode before enriched with microbes was clear surface, while after enriched with microbes was attached by microbes. The removal of COD, pH changes, current generation and morphology of anode surface could be used to assess the EAB in the anode compartment.

Published: December 2021

Tuberculosis (TB) is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. BCG vaccination is prevention the spread of TB in Indonesia. Individuals who are vaccinated (vaccinated) are healthy individuals and susceptible to infection. If a person is infected with TB then curative efforts through DOTS treatment must be carried out in order to recover. In the case of TB, recovered individuals may relapse. The susceptible vaccinated infected treatment recovered ( ) model with relapse cases is able to represent the spread of TB. This study aims to build the model with relapse, apply it to TB in Indonesia using data from 2004-2019, and interpret the results of implementing the TB-free target in Indonesia in 2050. The model is nonlinear first-order differential equations. The graph of the pattern of TB spread shows that all groups of individuals are experiencing an uptrend and it is predicted that the TB-free target has not been achieved. However, if the coverage of BCG vaccination and DOTS treatment is increased, contacts with TB sufferers are reduced, and relapse cases are reduced, it is predicted that the TB-free target will be achieved.

Abstract: Dilemmas and conflicts frequently arise during public policy-making. For instance, those occurring between the Policy for the Protection of Sustainable Food Agricultural Land (PLP2B) and land acquisition for development in the public interest (PTPKU). The former aims to preserve agricultural land, whereas the latter ensures absolute land provision for infrastructure and facility development in the public interest. The purpose of this study is to describe the policy conflicts that exist between the PLP2B policy and the PTPKU policy. A qualitative approach is used to conduct this research with a case study design using content analysis. Apart from documents, data triangulation is also conducted through interviews with multiple parties involved in decision-making and through observation and documentation of field conditions. Although both are in the public interest, the study's findings indicate that conservation is inferior to infrastructure development. The process of nullifying conservation implementation goes through a series of steps that emerge at each stage of land acquisition justification.

Intisari: Dilema dan konflik sering terjadi dalam pengambilan kebijakan publik. Sebagai contoh yaitu antara kebijakan Perlindungan Lahan Pertanian Pangan Berkelanjutan (PLP2B) dan kebijakan Pengadaan Tanah bagi Pembangunan untuk Kepentingan Umum (PTPKU). Kebjiakan PLP2B bertujuan untuk mempertahankan tanah pertanian, sedangkan kebijakan PTPKU menjamin penyediaan lahan secara mutlak bagi pembangunan infrastruktur atau fasilitas bagi kepentingan publik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menggambarkan konflik pada dua contoh kebijakan di atas. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif, dengan desain studi kasus menggunakan konten analisis (content analysis). Selain berdasar dokumen, dilakukan juga trianggulasi dalam penggunaan data, yaitu dengan wawancara terhadap beberapa pihak yang terlibat dalam pengambilan keputusan, serta observasi dan dokumentasi kondisi lapangan. Dari hasil penelitian tergambar bahwa meski sama-sama sebagai kepentingan umum, kebijakan pelestarian pertanian kalah dengan kepentingan umum pembangunan infrastruktur. Proses pembatalan ketetapan pelestarian terjadi melalui berbagai tahap yang ada pada setiap tahap justifikasi pelaksanaan pengadaan tanah.

Published: December 2021

Dari hasil investigasi lapangan di SMK FAJAR – Ciseeng Bogor, diketahui sebagian besar siswa yang berada di SMK Kelas 12 (yang akan lulus di tahun 2021), mereka belum memiliki wacana atau alternatif untuk melanjutkan ke Perguruan Tinggi. Hal ini terdapat beberapa faktor, : kondisi ekonomi orang tua dan lingkungan. Faktor lingkungan dan pergaulan teman sebaya merupakan faktor yang dominan, karena setelah lulus SLTA langsung bekerjagai Supermarket, Pertokoan dan Restauran yang tersebar di wilayah Bogor dan sekitarnya, jika fenomena ini dibiarkan akan menjadi tradisi yang turun temurun. PKM ( Pengabdian Kepada Masyarakat ) ini bertujuan untuk merubah paradigma pada siswa dengan memberikan motivasi dan dobrakan perubahan, diharapkan dimasa yang akan datang khususnya di wilayah Ciseeng – Bogor tidak hanya lulus SLTA namun dapat melanjutkan ke Perguruan Tinggi, dengan metode yang digunakan yaitu penyuluhan dan berdiskusi dengan para peserta. Kegiatan berjalan dengan lancar dan mendapat tanggapan positif dari Pimpinan SMK FAJAR dan terlihat bahwa siswa-siswi mengikuti dengan baik dan mereka nampak begitu antausias. Kegiatan ini dapat menjadi informasi berharga bagi siswa-siswi yang ternyata selama ini belum mereka dapatkan. Diharapkan kegiatan ini akan dapat merangsang mereka setelah lulus, untuk melanjutkan pendidikan ke jenjang pendidikan tinggi

Objectives - The overall objective of this proposal was to explore the effects of soil properties and management practices on C sequestration in soils and off-site losses of N.The specific objectives were: 1. to investigate and to quantify the effects of soil properties on C transformations that follow OW decomposition, C losses by gaseous emission, and its sequestration by organic and mineral components of the soil; 2. to investigate and to quantify the effects of soil properties on organic N mineralization and transformations in soil, its losses by leaching and gaseous emission; 3. to investigate and to quantify the effects of management practices and plants root activity and decomposition on C and N transformations; and 4. to upgrade the models NCSOIL and NCSWAP to include inorganic C and root exudation dynamics. The last objective has not been fulfilled due to difficulties in experimentally quantification of the effects of soil inorganic component on root exudation dynamics. Objective 4 was modified to explore the ability of NCSOIL to simulate organic matter decomposition and N transformations in non- and calcareous soils. Background - Rates of decomposition of organic plant residues or organic manures in soil determine the amount of carbon (C), which is mineralized and released as CO₂ versus the amount of C that is retained in soil organic matter (SOM). Decomposition rates also greatly influence the amount of nitrogen (N) which becomes available for plant uptake, is leached from the soil or lost as gaseous emission, versus that which is retained in SOM. Microbial decomposition of residues in soil is strongly influenced by soil management as well as soil chemical and physical properties and also by plant roots via the processes of mineral N uptake, respiration, exudation and decay.
Potentiation of Pest Control by Insect Immunosuppression
Authors: Chejanovsky Nor , Webb Bruce A. 
Published: December 2021

The restricted host range of many baculoviruses, highly pathogenic to Lepidoptera and non-pathogenic to mammals, limits their use to single or few closely related Lepidopteran species and is an obstacle to extending their implementation for pest control. The insect immune response is a major determinant of the ability of an insect pathogen to efficiently multiply and propagate. We have developed an original model system to study the Lepidopteran antiviral immune response based on Spodoptera littoralis resistance to AcMNPV (Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus) infection and the fascinating immunosuppressive activity of polydnaviruses .Our aim is to elucidate the mechanisms through which the immunosuppressive insect polydnaviruses promote replication of pathogenic baculoviruses in lepidopteran hosts that are mildly or non-permissive to virus- replication. In this study we : 1- Assessed the extent to which and the mechanisms whereby the immunosuppressive Campoletis sonorensis polydnavirus (CsV) or its genes enhanced replication of a well-characterized pathogenic baculovirus AcMNPV, in polydnavirus-immunosuppressedH. zea and S. littoralis insects and S. littoralis cells, hosts that are mildly or non-permissive to AcMNPV. 2- Identified CsV genes involved in the above immunosuppression (e.g. inhibiting cellular encapsulation and disrupting humoral immunity). We showed that: 1. S. littoralis larvae mount an immune response against a baculovirus infection. 2. Immunosuppression of an insect pest improves the ability of a viral pathogen, the baculovirus AcMNPV, to infect the pest. 3. For the first time two PDV-specific genes of the vankyrin and cystein rich-motif families involved in immunosuppression of the host, namely Pvank1 and Hv1.1 respectively, enhanced the efficacy of an insect pathogen toward a semipermissive pest. 4. Pvank1 inhibits apoptosis of Spodopteran cells elucidating one functional aspect of PDVvankyrins. 5. That Pvank-1 and Hv1.1 do not show cooperative effect in S. littoralis when co-expressed during AcMNPV infection. Our results pave the way to developing novel means for pest control, including baculoviruses, that rely upon suppressing host immune systems by strategically weakening insect defenses to improve pathogen (i.e. biocontrol agent) infection and virulence. Also, we expect that the above result will help to develop systems for enhanced insect control that may ultimately help to reduce transmission of insect vectored diseases of humans, animals and plants as well as provide mechanisms for suppression of insect populations that damage crop plants by direct feeding.
