Published: July 2021

BackgroundDuring COVID-19, the psychological distress and well-being of the general population has been precarious, increasing the need to determine the impact of complementary internet-based psychological interventions on both positive mental health as well as distress states. Psychological distress and mental well-being represent distinct dimensions of our mental health, and congruent changes in outcomes of distress and well-being do not necessarily co-occur within individuals. When testing intervention impact, it is therefore important to assess change in both outcomes at the individual level, rather than solely testing group differences in average scores at the group level.ObjectiveThis study set out to investigate the differential impact of an internet-based group mental health intervention on outcomes of positive mental health (ie, well-being, life satisfaction, resilience) and indicators of psychological distress (ie, depression, anxiety, stress).MethodsA 5-week mental health intervention was delivered to 89 participants using the Zoom platform during 2020. Impact on outcomes of distress, well-being, and resilience was assessed at the start and end of the program with multiple analysis of variance (MANOVA) and reliable change indices (RCIs) being used to determine program impact at the group and individual levels, respectively.ResultsThe intervention significantly improved all mental health outcomes measured, (F6,83=5.60, P<.001; Wilks Λ=.71; partial η2=.29) showing small to moderate effect sizes on individual outcomes. The largest effect sizes were observed for life satisfaction and overall well-being (η2=.22 and η2=.2, respectively). Larger effect sizes were noted for those with problematic mental health scores at baseline. A total of 92% (82/89) of participants demonstrated reliable change in at least one mental health outcome. Differential response patterns using RCI revealed that more than one-half of the participants showed improvement in both mental well-being and psychological distress, over one-quarter in outcomes of well-being only, and almost one-fifth in distress only.ConclusionsThe results provide evidence for the significant impact of an internet-based mental health intervention during COVID-19 and indicate the importance of assessing dimensions of both well-being and distress when determining mental health intervention effectiveness.
Impact of an eHealth Smartphone App on the Mental Health of Patients With Psoriasis: Prospective Randomized Controlled Intervention Study
Authors: Domogalla Lena , Beck Alena , Schulze-Hagen Theresa , Herr Raphael , Benecke Johannes , Schmieder Astrid 
Published: July 2021

Background
Psoriasis has a negative impact on patients’ physical and mental health and can lead to anxiety and depression. Disease management strategies, including educational programs and eHealth devices, have been shown to improve health care for several chronic diseases. However, such disease management strategies are lacking in the routine care of patients with psoriasis.

Objective
This study aims to study the impact of a novel intervention that combines an educational program with a disease management smartphone app on the mental health of patients with psoriasis.

Methods
Patients with psoriasis in the intervention group received an educational program; attended visits on weeks 0, 12, 24, 36, and 60; and had access to the study app. Patients in the control group only attended the visits. The primary endpoint was a significant reduction of scores on the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Secondary end points were reductions in Dermatology Life Quality Index score, Psoriasis Area and Severity Index score, pruritus, and pain, as well as improvements in mood and daily activities. In addition, modulating effects of sex, age, disease duration, and app use frequency were evaluated.

Results
A total of 107 patients were included in the study and randomized into the control group (53/107, 49.5%) or intervention group (54/107, 50.5%). Approximately 71.9% (77/107) of the patients completed the study. A significant reduction in HADS-Depression (HADS-D) in the intervention group was found at weeks 12 (P=.04) and 24 (P=.005) but not at weeks 36 (P=.12) and 60 (P=.32). Patient stratification according to app use frequency showed a significant improvement in HADS-D score at weeks 36 (P=.004) and 60 (P=.04) and in HADS-Anxiety (HADS-A) score at weeks 36 (P=.04) and 60 (P=.05) in the group using the app less than once every 5 weeks. However, in patients using the app more than once every 5 weeks, no significant reduction in HADS-D (P=.84) or HADS-A (P=.20) score was observed over the 60-week study period compared with that observed in patients in the control group. All findings were independent of sex, age, and disease duration.

Conclusions
These findings support the use of a disease management smartphone app as a valid tool to achieve long-term improvement in the mental health of patients with psoriasis if it is not used too frequently. Further studies are needed to analyze the newly observed influence of app use frequency.

OBJECTIVE
To investigate glucose variations associated with glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) in insulin-treated patients with type 2 diabetes.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
Patients included in Diabetes and Lifestyle Cohort Twente (DIALECT)-2 (n = 79) were grouped into three HbA1c categories: low, intermediate, and high (≤53, 54–62, and ≥63 mmol/mol or ≤7, 7.1–7.8, and ≥7.9%, respectively). Blood glucose time in range (TIR), time below range (TBR), time above range (TAR), glucose variability parameters, day and night duration, and frequency of TBR and TAR episodes were determined by continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) using the FreeStyle Libre sensor and compared between HbA1c categories.

RESULTS
CGM was performed for a median (interquartile range) of 10 (7–12) days/patient. TIR was not different for low and intermediate HbA1c categories (76.8% [68.3–88.2] vs. 76.0% [72.5.0–80.1]), whereas in the low category, TBR was higher and TAR lower (7.7% [2.4–19.1] vs. 0.7% [0.3–6.1] and 8.2% [5.7–17.6] vs. 20.4% [11.6–27.0], respectively; P &lt; 0.05). Patients in the highest HbA1c category had lower TIR (52.7% [40.9–67.3]) and higher TAR (44.1% [27.8–57.0]) than the other HbA1c categories (P &lt; 0.05), but did not have less TBR during the night. All patients had more (0.06 ± 0.06/h vs. 0.03 ± 0.03/h; P = 0.002) and longer (88.0 [45.0–195.5] vs. 53.4 [34.4–82.8] minutes; P &lt; 0.001) TBR episodes during the night than during the day.

CONCLUSIONS
In this study, a high HbA1c did not reduce the occurrence of nocturnal hypoglycemia, and low HbA1c was not associated with the highest TIR. Optimal personalization of glycemic control requires the use of newer tools, including CGM-derived parameters.

Published: July 2021

En el presente trabajo se pretende analizar el tipo de estrategias, técnicas y métodos que permiten el análisis contable de las empresas del sector pecuario y que ayudan a dinamizar la información exógena DIAN en el territorio antioqueño, partiendo de cuestionar los tipos de estrategias, técnicas y métodos que hacen o viabilizan el análisis contable en el sector de referencia. Del mismo modo, se caracteriza en el artículo la gestión que soporta el análisis contable y financiero en el campo de las empresas del sector pecuario antioqueño y colombiano a partir de la importancia relativa en términos cuantitativos, en tanto que dichos activos biológicos no se pueden dejar sin medir ni gestionar, habida cuenta de su importante contribución a la creación de valor en la consulta contable como proceso de apoyo a la empresa colombiana. Los distintos estudios emprendidos a la fecha han puesto de manifiesto que para incrementar los análisis contables y financieros corresponde mejorar la información sobre activos biológicos, dado que la que tradicionalmente ha formado parte de la información financiera publicada por las empresas infravalora dichos activos biológicos, con lo cual quedan ocultos valores importantes asociados a ellos.

Una generación olvidada de periodistas en la memoria del siglo XX: Manuel García Santos, vida y obra entre dos orillas
Authors: López Romero Laura , Coello Ugalde José Francisco 
Published: July 2021

La huella periodística de Manuel García Santos fue longeva, pasional y con un verdadero afán por la supervivencia. Nacido en Jerez de la Frontera, provincia de Cádiz, y de profesión maestro, su afición por las letras lo encaminaron pronto al oficio al que dedicaría toda su vida, hasta su vejez: el periodismo. Aunque gozó de una trayectoria profesional larga y fecunda, la historia le tenía reservado, como a otros tantos periodistas, grandes obstáculos. Primero la guerra civil española, después, una dura posguerra y, por último, un exilio.
Este artículo rescata de la memoria colectiva la vida de un profesional de las letras que trabajó con pasión una de sus mayores aficiones, la crítica taurina. Dos fueron los países que pudieron disfrutar de su pluma: España en sus comienzos, y México en su etapa madura y vejez.
La vida de Manuel García Santos es parte del reflejo de tantos periodistas que sufrieron la represión durante la guerra civil española, pero en su caso con la fortuna de poder crear nuevos caminos que le permitieron reconstruir su oficio más querido, el periodismo, hasta su fallecimiento en México.

Investigation of the effects of household processing on the reduction rate of chlorpyrifos, metalaxyl and diazinon residues in orange fruit
Authors: El-Sayed E. , Hassan H. , El-Raouf A. Abd , Salman S.N. 
Published: July 2021

Summary
The effect of the household processing on the reduction rate of chlorpyrifos, metalaxyl and diazinon residues in contaminated oranges has been investigated and the processing factors were determined. The evaluation included validation parameters, matrix effect (ME %), reduction behavior and processing factors (PFs). Validation parameters were successfully applied; the three pesticides showed satisfactory recovery (70–120%) and precision (relative standard deviation - RSD<20%); they also exhibited no matrix effect. The most effective process in the pesticide residues reduction was juicing, followed by pulping while the washing process was less efficient in removing all pesticide residues; sonication showed a high reduction rate with both chlorpyrifos and diazinon. The processing factors (PFs) were generally less than one which indicates that all processes can reduce pesticide residues in oranges. The results could guide the safe and reasonable use of chlorpyrifos, diazinon, and metalaxyl. These processes contribute substantially to reduce consumer exposure to pesticide residues in oranges.

Summary
Emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in plants is triggered by several biotic and abiotic factors, such as nutrient deficiency, environmental stress, and pathogenic attacks. For instance, plants suffering from limited or excessive nitrogen (N) supply may experience internal stress which can ultimately lower their stability and immunity making them susceptible to infection and infestation. In this study, VOCs from Capsicum annuum var. longum (Solanaceae) exposed to nitrogen (1.8 g/L, 4.5 g/L, and 9 g/L urea) were extracted using a 100 μm Solid Phase Microextraction (SPME) fiber coated with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). Using Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS), extracted VOCs from N-treated plants were identified as Butanoic acid, 3-hexenyl ester, (E)-; Butanoic acid, hexyl ester; Hexanoic acid, 3-hexenyl ester, (Z)-; Hexanoic acid, 4-hexen-1-yl ester; cis-3-Hexenyl cis-3-hexenoate and 4-Pentenoic acid 2-methyl-, hexyl ester. Among these volatiles, butanoic acid, 3-hexenyl ester showed the most distinctive peak from the N-treated plants in comparison with the untreated. In addition, the Green Leaf Volatiles (GLV) 3-Hexenal; 2-Hexenal; 3-Hexen-1-ol, (Z)-; 2-Hexen-1-ol, (E) and 1-Hexanol were also detected from the N-treated plants. The identification of plant volatiles provides useful information that can be used in agricultural practices and plant phenotyping.

Published: July 2021

Abstract
The field of business ethics has received considerable attention from the corporate, academic, and public sectors over the past several decades. A key purpose of this paper is to examine existing research and knowledge creation in the field of business ethics. The paper includes systematic literature review using bibliomteric analysis which covers 50 articles, published in 11 peer-reviewed journals from 1994 to 2019, examining the methodological and theoretical approaches, as well as the main research focus areas. We found significant amount of studies concerning business ethics appeared mostly in business ethics journals. We identified seven areas of research covered by numerous authors in the observed period, of which three predominate: corporate culture; education; and national (cultural) approach to business ethics.
Occurrence of Cephenemyia stimulator larvae in male roe deer (Capreolus capreolus L.) in the Lublin Upland, Poland, and their impact on particular animal health indicators
Authors: Flis Marian , Rataj Bogusław , Grela Eugeniusz R. 
Published: July 2021

Abstract

Introduction
The aim of the study was to carry out epizootic assessment of male roe deer to detect the presence of Cephenemyia stimulator larvae and determine the influence of the parasite on the carcass and antler weight in animals living in different habitats.

Material and Methods
The investigations were based on post-mortem analysis of Cephenemyia stimulator infestations of the nasal passages and throat of 177 male roe deer culled between May 11 and September 30, 2020 in hunting districts of the Lublin region in Poland. The individual quality of the animals was assessed by weighing the gutted carcasses after cooling, and the antlers were weighed after dissection and their total weight was determined.

Results
The parasite prevalence ranged from18 to 48% according to habitat type, with a mean value of 33%. The highest prevalence was detected in bucks living in grassland ecosystems. The presence of the parasites exerted influence on the individual condition of the animals, which was reflected in reduced carcass and antler weight. The differences were found both in young individuals and in somatically fully developed animals, but they were not statistically significant in all age groups.

Conclusion
Although the parasitic infestations impaired the individual condition traits, their parametric values in most cases were not lower than those reported from other regions of Poland. Despite the Cephenemyia stimulator infestation, male roe deer from the Lublin region are characterised by high carcass and antler weight.
New insights into the prevalence and phylogenetic diversity of Cysticercus ovis isolates in sheep from Sulaymaniyah, Iraq
Authors: Ahmad Mohammed Aram 
Published: July 2021

Abstract

Introduction
Although ovine cysticercosis is not a zoonotic problem, it results in substantial economic losses due to the condemnation of infected tissues or entire carcasses. This study aimed to record preliminary data on the prevalence, and phylogenetic diversity of Cysticercus ovis isolates from slaughtered sheep in the province of Sulaymaniyah, Iraq.

Material and Methods
From January to September 2020, 6, 411 slaughtered sheep were examined for C. ovis by routine meat inspection. The amplification and sequence analysis of the COX1 gene for up to 35 specimens of C. ovis was performed using conventional PCR.

Results
The overall prevalence rate was 1.3%, and the prevalence was significantly higher in older sheep (>1 year) than younger ones (<1 year) (P< 0.05). The cardiac muscle showed a higher tendency to carry C. ovis infection compared to other examined muscles. Sequence analysis of the COX1 gene revealed six haplotypes, and the level of pairwise nucleotide diversity between individual haplotypes was 1–2%. Five out of six of the Taenia ovis haplotypes recovered could have been recorded for the first time globally. Phylogenetic interpretation indicated that all the T. ovis haplotypes clustered in a single clade, and it also indicated an extremely close similarity to Iranian and New Zealand isolates.

Conclusions
Globally, this report adds new data on C. ovis genetic diversity, which provide an extremely useful molecular background with regard to future preventive as well as control strategies.
Acrylamide-induced changes of granulopoiesis in porcine bone marrow
Authors: Grzybowska Dominika , Snarska Anna 
Published: July 2021

Abstract

Introduction
Due to the widely documented and diverse toxic effects of acrylamide, the authors decided to evaluate the impact of high and low doses of this compound on the process of granulopoiesis in porcine bone marrow.

Material and Methods
The experiment was conducted on 15 Danish Landrace pigs at the age of 8 weeks. The animals were randomly assigned into three equal groups (n = 5). Control animals received empty gelatine capsules as placebo. Animals in the first experimental group (the LD group) received a low dose of acrylamide of 0.5 μg/kg b.w./day, and animals in the second experimental group (the HD group) received a tenfold higher dose of acrylamide of 5 μg/kg b.w./day. Placebo and acrylamide capsules were administered with feed every morning for 28 days. Bone marrow was collected into tubes without an anticoagulant twice – before the first capsule administration (day 0) and on the 28th day of the study. After drying and staining, bone marrow smears were subjected to detailed cytological evaluation under a light microscope.

Results
Changes in cell morphology, i.e. degenerative changes in the cellular nuclei, were observed in both experimental groups. Both low and high doses of acrylamide decreased the number of segmented eosinophils, neutrophilic and segmented metamyelocytes, neutrophils, as well as basophils and basophilic metamyelocytes.

Conclusion
Acrylamide at doses of 0.5 μg/kg b.w./day and 5 μg/kg b.w./day clearly influences porcine granulopoiesis.
Porcine enteric coronavirus infections in wild boar in Poland – a pilot study
Authors: Antas Marta , Olech Monika , Szczotka-Bochniarz Anna 
Published: July 2021

AbstractIntroductionPorcine epidemic diarrhoea virus (PEDV) of theCoronaviridaefamily causes significant economic losses in the pig industry worldwide. Wild boars contribute to the transmission of different viral, bacterial and parasitic infections to livestock animals and humans. However, their role in the maintenance and transmission of PEDV has not been established.Material and MethodsIn this study, blood and faecal samples from 157 wild boars were collected from 14 provinces of Poland during the 2017–2018 hunting season. RNA was extracted from the faecal homogenate supernatant and subjected to quantitative RT-PCR (RT-qPCR), while clotted blood samples were used for detection of antibodies against PEDV by ELISA.ResultsFive blood samples (3.2%) were seropositive in ELISA, while none of the faecal samples were found positive using RT-qPCR assays.ConclusionThe results of this analysis indicate the need for additional studies incorporating a larger number of samples and preferably comparing different serological methods, to confirm whether wild boars in Poland act as PEDV reservoirs.
