O USO DE PLANTAS ABORTIVAS NO NORDESTE BRASILEIRO: UMA REVISÃO
Authors: Nunes Andreia Magnólia Marques , Silva Valdeline Atanazio 
Published: June 2021

O uso de plantas para fins abortivos é frequente no Brasil, embora seja prática proibida por lei. O presente trabalho é uma revisão bibliográfica sobre as espécies registradas como abortivas no nordeste brasileiro. Para o desenvolvimento da pesquisa realizou-se um levantamento de artigos sobre o tema e utilizou-se como palavras-chave os seguintes termos: “plantas abortivas”, abortivas, aborto. Foram pesquisados trabalhos sobre etnobotânica, produções que tratavam sobre aborto, bem como o uso de plantas para este fim. Após a seleção dos artigos, dados de 35 trabalhos foram usados nesta revisão. O conhecimento sobre o uso dessas espécies é oriundo de benzedeiros, feirantes, donas de casa, estudantes e gestantes, com idade variando entre 13 e 96 anos. As motivações citadas para a prática do aborto foram: presença de outros filhos, ausência de companheiros, financeiro e questões religiosas, embora as religiões comentadas, evangélica e católica, condenem a prática. De um total de 79 plantas, as mais apontadas foram: Luffa operculata e Coutarea hexandra (citada oito vezes), Aspidosperma pyrifolium (citada seis vezes), Manihot cf. dichotoma e Peumus boldus (citada cinco vezes) e, Anadenanthera colubrina (citada quatro vezes). De modo geral, as mulheres utilizam as plantas sem o entendimento que, embora sejam naturais, apresentam propriedades que podem levar à morte, tanto que algumas usam tais espécies sem o objetivo de abortar, mas para diminuir ansiedade e combater desconfortos digestivos, desconsiderando suas contraindicações de uso. Algumas delas citaram, ainda, a utilização de artifícios na prática de “aborto” sem que estivessem de fato grávidas. Sendo assim, é importante que campanhas sejam realizadas para maior compreensão sobre o uso de plantas medicinais e seus efeitos colaterais, seja para grávidas, seja para a população em geral.

Background:
Novel methods for diagnosing periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) are currently being explored. Mass spectrometry (MS) is an approach that can detect whole-protein changes in synovial fluid and may represent a promising method.

Methods:
Between March 2017 and July 2018, we successively collected synovial fluid samples from patients who were undergoing diagnostic hip or knee aspiration because PJI was suspected. A PJI diagnosis was based on the modified Musculoskeletal Infection Society (MSIS) criteria. Cluster analysis and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to evaluate the results, which were quantitatively confirmed with parallel reaction monitoring in another patient group who underwent aspiration between August 2018 and January 2019.

Results:
A total of 117 synovial samples, including 51 PJI and 66 non-PJI samples, were analyzed with liquid chromatography-tandem MS (LC-MS/MS). The cluster analysis sensitivity and specificity based on differentially expressed proteins were 0.961 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.854 to 0.993) and 0.924 (95% CI, 0.825 to 0.972), respectively. Myeloid nuclear differentiation antigen (MNDA) and polymorphonuclear leukocyte serine protease 3 (PRTN3) were the 2 most important markers for detecting PJI. The areas under the curves (AUCs) of MNDA and PRTN3 were 0.969 (95% CI, 0.936 to 1.000) and 0.900 (95% CI, 0.844 to 0.956), respectively. When MNDA and PRTN3 were combined as variables of a predictive model to diagnose PJI, the AUC reached 0.975 (95% CI, 0.943 to 1.000). Our parallel reaction monitoring-based quantitative analysis of another 40 synovial samples confirmed this result.

Conclusions:
MS could be a powerful tool for diagnosing PJI using proteome information or 2 specific markers, MNDA and PRTN3. The parallel reaction monitoring strategy simplified the PJI detection process and provided quantitative results with similar conclusions.

Clinical Relevance:
The clinical application of MS adds a new powerful tool for the diagnosis of PJI, and the parallel reaction monitoring strategy lays a foundation for the clinical application of MS.

Abstract
Purpose: The Edmonton Symptom Assessment System-revised (ESASr) is widely used in clinical oncology to screen for physical and emotional symptoms. The performance of the anxiety and depression items (ESASr-A and ESASr-D, respectively) as screening tools has not been evaluated in patients treated with renal replacement therapy. Methods: Kidney transplant recipients and patients on dialysis were recruited in Toronto. Patients were classified as having moderate/severe depression and anxiety symptoms using the established cut-off score of ≥10 on the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) and the General Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) questionnaires. Results: This study included 931 participants; 62% male, mean age (SD) 55(16), and 52% White. All participants completed ESASr, however only 748 participants completed PHQ-9 and 769 participants completed GAD-7. Correlation between ESASr item scores and legacy scores were moderately strong (ESASr-D/PHQ-9: 0.61; ESASr-A/GAD-7: 0.64). We found good discrimination for moderate/severe depression and anxiety (area under the receiver operating characteristics curve [95%CI]: ESASr-D 0.82 [0.78-0.86]; ESASr-A 0.87 [0.82, 0.92]). The cut-off ≥2 for ESASr-D (Sensitivity = 0.76; Specificity = 0.77; Likelihood Ratio(LR)+ = 3.29; LR- = 0.31) and ≥4 for ESASr-A (Sensitivity = 0.75; Specificity = 0.87; LR+ = 5.76; LR- = 0.29) had the best combination of measurement characteristics. Conclusion: The identified ESASr-D and ESASr-A cut-off scores may be used to rule out patients without emotional distress with few false negatives. However, the low sensitivity identified in our analysis suggests that neither ESASr-D or ESASr-A are acceptable as standalone screening tools.

Abstract
Multi-hop localization is a an important technique for Wireless Sensor Networks. Location awareness is very crucial for almost existing sensor network applications. However, using Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers to every node is very expensive. Therefore, the Distance Vector-Hop algorithm (DV-Hop) is proposed and very famous for its simplicity and localization accuracy for Wireless Sensor Networks. The cited algorithm uses a small number of anchor nodes, which are equipped with GPS, thus their locations are known, while other nodes estimate their location from the network connectivity information. However, DV-Hop presents some deficiencies and drawbacks in terms of localization accuracy. Therefore, we propose in this paper an improvement of DV-Hop algorithm, called Regularized Least Square DV-Hop Localization Algorithm for multihop wireless sensors networks. The proposed solution improves the location accuracy of sensor nodes within their sensing field in both isotropic and anisotropic networks. Simulation results prove that the proposed algorithm outperforms the original DV-Hop algorithm with up to 60%, as well as other related works, in terms of localization accuracy.

Abstract
BackgroundThe best way of comparing healthcare treatments is through a randomised trial. In a randomised trial, we compare something (a treatment or intervention) to something else, often another treatment. Who gets what is decided at random, meaning everyone has an equal chance of getting any of the treatments. This means any differences found can be put down to the treatment received rather than other things, such as where people live, or health conditions they might have.The People’s Trial aimed to help the public better understand randomised trials by inviting them to design and carry out a trial. The question chosen by the public for The People’s Trial was:‘Does reading a book in bed make a difference to sleep, in comparison to not reading a book in bed?’ This paper describes that trial, called ‘The Reading Trial’.MethodsThe Reading Trial was an online, randomised trial. Members of the public were invited to take part through social media campaigns. People were asked to either read a book in bed before going to sleep (intervention group) or not read a book in bed before going to sleep (control group). We asked everyone to do this for seven days, after which they measured their sleep quality. Results During December 2019, a total of 991 people took part in The Reading Trial, half (496 (50%)) in the intervention group and half (495 (50%)) in the control group. Not everyone finished the trial: 127 (25.6%) people in the intervention group, and 90 (18.18%) people in the control group. Of those providing data, 156/369 (42%) people in the intervention group felt their sleep improved, compared to 112/405 (28%) of those in the control group, a difference of 14%. When we consider how certain we are of this finding, we estimate that, in The Reading Trial, sleep improved for between 8% and 22% more people in the intervention group compared to the control group.ConclusionsReading a book in bed before going to sleep improved sleep quality, compared to not reading a book in bed.Trial Registration Registered 4th December 2019, ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04185818.

Published: June 2021

Abstract
Recurrent selection based on combining ability has been successfully used in tetraploid bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum Flüggé) to accumulate heterotic effects and exploit hybrid vigor. However, its efficiency depends on an accurate selection of the best genotypes to form a new recombinant population. The objective of this work was to assess the general combining ability of female parents of bahiagrass based on the performance of their progeny for agronomic and morphological traits using a mixed model approach, biplot analysis and selection index. There were evaluated 29 half-sib families generated by crossing 29 sexual tetraploid genotypes from a sexual synthetic tetraploid population and a group of apomictic tetraploid genotypes. Agronomic and morphological traits were analyzed using a mixed model approach (BLUP). The multi-trait analysis was based on a biplot analysis and a selection index using the family BLUPs. BLUP analysis showed significant differences among families for most of the evaluated traits. Sexual female parents of families 5, 9, 8, 28, 21 and 16 were identified as those with greater general combining ability. Biplot showed variability among families and allowed identifying six sexual parents with greater general combining ability. The same sexual parents that exhibited greater general combining ability by BLUP were identified with greater general combining ability by biplot. Selection index was variable and allowed identifying the same best sexual parents that BLUP and biplot. The three analysis methods were equally effective to estimate general combining ability of a group of sexual parents of tetraploid bahiagrass based on the performance of their progeny.
Influences of adjacent suburbia, fire regimes, vegetation and environment on the mammals of a peri-urban reserve

Published: June 2021

Abstract
Urban development is thought to negatively affect most, but not all, native mammals. Here we determine whether adjacent suburbia, fire regime, vegetation and environment affect the abundance of mammal species in a peri-urban reserve in Hobart, Tasmania, Australia. We used multiple regression to analyse the effects of distance from houses, variation in fire history, vegetation structure, vegetation floristics and topography on mammal photographic observations and signs. Animal diggings, long-nosed potoroos, southern brown bandicoots and cats were preferentially found close to houses, while macropods, brushtail possums and short-beaked echidnas appeared indifferent to the location of housing but responded to environmental variation. The structure of the vegetation, particularly related to shelter, was a strong influence in many species’ models, suggesting a need to maintain substantial areas free from fire for 15–25 years. Many models included floristic ordination axes that reflected drainage, fire regime and proximity to housing. Positive relationships between the introduced predatory cat and some of its potential native prey animals may reflect the influences of close proximity to suburbia: elevated domestic mesopredator populations; and, elevated resource availability in domestic gardens. Our results suggest that urban areas can have a valuable role in nature conservation, despite, or because of, their effects on remnant native ecosystems. Planning and management can help promote populations of many native mammals.

Abstract
Contagious Bovine Pleuropneumonia (CBPP) is a threat to Cattle health and Production in Ethiopia. Therefore, objective of this study is to estimate prevalence of CBPP in Horo Guduru Wollega, Western Oromiya Region. This cross-sectional study was supported by questionnaire surveys which evaluate community awareness level toward CBPP disease from September 2019 to June 2020. Out of 768 sera tested for detection of Antibody against Mycoplama mycoides small colonies using a competitive enzyme linked Immunosorbent test 14.3% of them became positive. The districts level Prevalence was 16.4%, 13.6 % and 10.8 % in Abe, Dongoro, Hababo, Guduru, and Guduru district, respectively. There was not a significant association with district and PA’s (p > 0.05). However, Statistically Significant associations (P < 0.05) were seen in different group of Age, Sex and Body condition. Moreover, questionnaire survey was collected from 200 households of the respondents of three districts. The majority of the respondents were male (77%) and the rest were female (23%). This survey showed that there was limited awareness among the farmers toward CBPP disease, with only 4.5% and 7% of respondents aware of as disease able to cause reduced growth and fertility rate of cattle, respectively. Therefore, the finding shows that high CBPP prevalence Horo Guduru Wollega Zone. This shows that this area needs high attention from government and other stakeholder interventions to stop further spread of the disease.

Abstract
Neuronavigated repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (nrTMS) is an innovative technique that provides insight into language function with high accuracy in time and space. So far, nrTMS has mainly been applied in presurgical language mapping of patients with cranial neoplasms. For the present study nrTMS was used for language mapping in primary progressive aphasia Seven patients (median age: 70 years, 4 males) with the non-fluent variant of primary progressive aphasia were included in this pilot study. Inhibitory nrTMS trains (5 Hz, 40 % resting motor threshold) caused virtual lesions at 46 standardized cortical stimulation targets per hemisphere. Patients’ errors in a naming task during stimulation were counted. The majority of errors induced occurred during frontal lobe stimulation (34.3 %). Timing errors and non-responses were most frequent. More errors were induced in the right hemisphere (58%) than in the left hemisphere (42%). Mapping was tolerated by all patients, however, discomfort or pain was reported for stimulation of frontal areas. The elevated right-hemispheric error rate in our study supports the hypothesis of a partial shift of language function to the right hemisphere in neurodegenerative aphasia during the course of disease and therefore points to the existence of significant neuronal plasticity in primary progressive aphasia. While this is an interesting finding for neurodegenerative disorders per se, its promotion might also harbor future therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Companies in the water industry present to their shareholders their digital corporate social responsibility agendas and their social and environmental commitments on their websites. The purpose of this research is to assess the digital corporate social responsibility of Portuguese companies in the water industry. This research makes theoretical and practical contributions to the existing literature by examining the corporate social responsibility disclosure in a specific type of industry that is rarely studied and is in one of the smallest Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development countries, thereby expanding previous research in this field. The research also examines factors that affect the digital status of the online disclosure. The authors empirically analyse the corporate social responsibility information published on the websites of the Portuguese companies operating in the bottled water industry. The data was collected based on the Global Reporting Initiative standards which detail the level of disclosure in this industry and highlight areas of underreporting. The results reveal the variables companies’ size, number of employees and turnover influence the level of disclosure of Portuguese companies in water industry.
Assessment of Concentration levels of contaminants in groundwater of Soutpansberg Region, Limpopo Province, South Africa
Authors: Lalumbe Lindelani , Kanyerere Thokozani 
Published: June 2021

Abstract
Groundwater contribution towards improved food security and human health depend on the level of contaminants in groundwater. In rural areas, many people use groundwater for drinking and irrigation purposes without treatment and have no knowledge of contaminants levels in such waters. The reason for such lack of treatment and knowledge is due to the parachute type of research which emphasizes on scientific knowledge and records only and not sharing research outputs with communities for improved human health and food security. This study argued that parachute research type exposes groundwater users to health hazards and threaten food security. Concentration levels of contaminants were measured to ascertain suitability of groundwater for drinking and irrigation use. 124 groundwater quality samples from 12 boreholes and 2 springs with physiochemical data from 1995 to 2017 were assessed. This study found high concentration levels of contaminants such F−, NO3−, Cl− and TDS in certain parts of the studied area when compared to water quality standards. In general, groundwater was deemed suitable for drinking purposes in most part of the studied area. Combined calculated values of SAR, Na%, MH, PI, RSC and TDS determined that groundwater is suitable for irrigation purposes. The discussion in this paper showed that scientific knowledge generated on groundwater quality should be shared with water users as it will improved human health and food security and also enhance the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals. This study recommended that skills and research outputs should be shared with groundwater users through various initiatives.
