Glyphosate effects on the female reproductive systems: a systematic review
Authors: Kaboli Kafshgiri Sakineh , Farkhondeh Tahereh , Miri-Moghaddam Ebrahim 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
Glyphosate-based herbicides (GBHs) are organophosphate pesticides, which interrupt the chemicals involved in the endocrine system and cause lifelong disorders in women's reproductive system. The current study was designed to systematically evaluate the association between GBH exposure and the female reproductive tract. According to PRISMA Guidelines, the systematic review was performed, searching online databases, including Google Scholar, Web of Science, PubMed, and Scopus, throughout April 2020. Studies with Rodent, lamb, and fish or exposed to GBH to affect the female reproductive system were selected. All studies were in the English language. Two investigators independently assessed the articles. The first author's name, publication date, animal model, age, sample size, gender, dose, duration, and route of exposure and outcomes were extracted from each publication. The present review summarizes 14 publications on uterus alterations and oocytes, histological changes ovary, and assessed mRNA expression, protein expression, serum levels progesterone, and estrogen and intracellular Reaction Oxygen Species (ROS) in rodents, fish, and lamb exposed to GHB exposure. Most of the studies reported histological changes in ovarian and uterus tissue, alterations in serum levels, and increased oxidative stress level following exposure to GBH. Additionally, due to alterations in the reproductive systems (e.g., histomorphological changes, reduction of the mature follicles, higher atretic follicles, and interstitial fibrosis), it seems the GBH-induced female these alterations are both dose- and time-dependent. The present findings support an association between GBH exposure and female reproductive system diseases. However, more studies are needed to identify the mechanisms disrupting the effects of GBH and their underlying mechanisms. Considering the current literature, it is recommended that further investigations be focused on the possible effects of various pesticides on the human reproductive system.
A mixture autoregressive model based on Gaussian and Student’s t-distributions
Authors: Virolainen Savi 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
We introduce a new mixture autoregressive model which combines Gaussian and Student’s t mixture components. The model has very attractive properties analogous to the Gaussian and Student’s t mixture autoregressive models, but it is more flexible as it enables to model series which consist of both conditionally homoscedastic Gaussian regimes and conditionally heteroscedastic Student’s t regimes. The usefulness of our model is demonstrated in an empirical application to the monthly U.S. interest rate spread between the 3-month Treasury bill rate and the effective federal funds rate.

Abstract
Rozenek, R, Byrne, JJ, Crussemeyer, J, and Garhammer, J. Male-Female Differences in Push-up Test Performance at Various Cadences. J Strength Cond Res 36(12): 3324–3329, 2022—Push-up (PU) testing is widely used to assess upper-extremity muscular endurance. However, little information exists regarding the influence of cadence on PU performance. Forty-four healthy men and women (age range = 21–36 years) completed 4 PU test sessions on separate days in a randomized order using standard PUs. Cadences of 30, 45, and 60 PU·min−1 were used for 3 tests, whereas a fourth test was performed at a self-selected (SS) cadence. The total number of PUs completed, vertical ground reaction forces (vGRFs) acting on each hand and the feet, and the sum of the vGRFs were determined for each test. Results showed men performed more PU than women at any cadence (p ≤ 0.05) and had a faster mean SS cadence (49.9 ± 11.4 PU·min−1 vs 42.8 ± 8.4 PU·min−1) (p ≤ 0.05). The maximum number of PU were performed when using either the SS cadence or 60 PU·min−1, with little difference observed between them (p ≤ 0.05). The sum of vGRFs was greatest at 60 PU·min−1 and when scaled to body mass (BM) represented 1.58 ± 0.14x and 1.33 ± 0.08x BM for men and women, respectively. As cadence increased, men shifted more weight to the hand contact points compared with women (p ≤ 0.05). Distinct differences in SS cadence and distribution of forces were observed between the sexes suggesting different strategies while performing the PU test. These differences should be considered when selecting a protocol for PU testing.

El discurso docente en clases de lenguaje y matemáticas en un tercero básico chileno: un estudio de caso
Authors: Perez Sobarzo Fernanda , Yancovic-Allen Macarena 
Published: July 2021

Conocer las interacciones entre estudiantes y el profesorado es fundamental para el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje, puesto que la calidad de las interacciones dentro del aula definirá los procesos pedagógicos (Mourshed, Chijioke y Barber, 2012). A través de un estudio de caso único, se indaga de manera profunda en el discurso de una docente de tercero básico en dos unidades didácticas, una de Matemáticas y la otra de Lenguaje. Para esto, se estudia el tiempo e intencionalidad de su discurso y se analiza el tipo de preguntas que realiza, para así identificar las habilidades cognitivas que estas promueven en el alumnado. Los datos fueron recolectados a través de grabaciones de audio, transcritos y posteriormente analizados. Los resultados evidencian que la docente domina la clase tanto en el tiempo discursivo como en el tipo de preguntas que realiza, las que son mayoritariamente cerradas, centradas en el contenido y que promueven habilidades cognitivas de bajo orden. Se concluye que este ámbito debe ser abordado e intencionado por las personas docentes, por lo que se recomienda comprender su importancia y trabajar en diseños de estrategias que promuevan habilidades cognitivas de orden superior en sus aulas y, a la vez, que esta temática sea abordada en los programas de formación inicial docente.

Published: July 2021

The article reviews literature on the organization of the erythrocyte plasmalemma and its rearrangements at different periods of the cell lifespan. In the absence of a nucleus and organelles, the plasmalemma is the only structural element of erythrocytes involved in all processes of their vital activity. The plasmalemma supports the disk-like shape of the erythrocyte, provides its ability to reversible deformation, maintains intracellular homeostasis, participates in gas transport and energy metabolism, also transfers hormones, enzymes, antibodies, medicines and other substances on its surface. The polyfunctionality of the plasmalemma is provided by the peculiarities of its lipid, protein, and carbohydrate composition, as well as by the presence of a unique cytoskeleto n, morphologically associated with the erythrocyte membrane. The plasmalemma has the substantial modifications during the erythrocyte lifespan, namely, in maturation of reticulocytes, in the processes of functioning, aging, and cell death. Biochemical rearrangements of the plasmalemma serve as triggers for events such as membrane vesiculation, eryptosis, and elimination of senescent erythrocytes by macrophages. Age-related changes in the erythrocyte plasmalemma are adoptive in nature and aimed at maintaining cellular homeostasis and functional activity of these formed elements during a four-month stay in the bloodstream.

Compression of the Median Nerve and Ulnar Nerve's Deep Palmar Branch by a Ganglion Cyst in the Carpal Tunnel
Authors: Yanagisawa Sho , Takagi Takehiko , Kodama Mitsuhiko , Kobayashi Yuka , Watanabe Masahiko 
Published: July 2021

Case:
A 39-year-old woman presented with a ganglion cyst in the carpal tunnel simultaneously compressing the right median nerve and the deep palmar branch of the ulnar nerve. During surgery, the soft tissue was exposed under the median nerve and on the deep palmar branch of the ulnar nerve running transversely in the deep area of the carpal tunnel.

Conclusion:
Simultaneous compression of the median nerve and deep palmar branch of the ulnar nerve is extremely rare; however, such a pathoanatomical relationship must be considered while examining a patient because these nerves are located close to each other.

Published: July 2021

Case:
A 30-year-old man presented with progressive lower right extremity pain and swelling, initially diagnosed as a deep venous thrombosis. He returned 18 months later after 2 episodes of gross hemoptysis, with chest computed tomography angiography findings concerning for tumor thrombus in the left pulmonary artery. Subsequent advanced imaging showed a lesion arising from his right femoral vein, which open biopsy revealed to be a primary intravascular mesenchymal chondrosarcoma. He underwent medical therapy, with improvement of pain and swelling and successful return to work.

Conclusion:
Mesenchymal chondrosarcoma is a rare pathology, and its intravascular origin makes this case extraordinarily uncommon.

Authors: Chang Gerard , Chip Routt Milton L. , Warner Stephen 
Published: July 2021

Case:
We report the case of a patient who sustained a left posterior wall acetabular fracture with an ipsilateral persistent sciatic artery (PSA). The PSA was diagnosed preoperatively on lower extremity computed tomography angiogram. He was treated with open reduction internal fixation through a Kocher-Langenbeck approach. The PSA and sciatic nerve were identified and protected throughout the case. There were no neurovascular complications.

Conclusion:
PSA in the setting of posterior wall acetabulum fractures has not been reported previously. Orthopaedic surgeons who treat these injuries should be aware of PSA anatomic variants so that they can be identified and protected during surgery.
The qualitative and quantitative classification of modern clastic marginal-marine depositional systems, Trinidad
Authors: Khan Saeed , Vincent Hasley , Wilson Brent 
Published: July 2021

ABSTRACTTrinidad's modern coastal depositional systems are for the first time documented by (traditional) descriptive and (modern) semiquantitative and quantitative classification methods. The processes controlling the morphology and distribution of these systems are also investigated. Google Earth™ satellite images, together with published basinal processes data (e.g., significant wave height, surface littoral currents, and tidal cyclicity) are used to describe system morphology, map depositional elements, and to determine the processes responsible for system distribution, respectively.Coastal depositional systems along Trinidad's east, south, and west coasts comprise deltas, estuaries, tidal-inlet complexes, strandplains, and tidal flats. Their distribution is controlled by the wave regime, although they are also influenced by tidal and fluvial processes. The wave regime changes from wave-dominated along the open east coast, to mixed-energy wave-dominated along the semi-sheltered south coast, and to mixed-energy tide-dominated along the sheltered west coast. Distribution of depositional systems related to this regime are such that the wave-dominated east coast sees the development of wave-dominated estuaries. The south coast has a series of wave-dominated, tide- and river-influenced deltas. The sheltered west coast is the most morphologically diverse with river- and wave-dominated deltas, strandplains, and tidal flats.The application of semiquantitative and quantitative classification methods on modern systems has showed their competence in classifying mixed-influence systems from their morphology and sedimentary record. Quantitative classification using depositional elements lends an appreciation to the morphological signatures of mixed-influence systems. Quantitative classification for sedimentary sections gives an appreciation of the preservation of mixed-influence physical processes. The combination of both allows the correlation of the impact of physical properties on morphology and sedimentary record (i.e., possible disparities between morphology and processes). The combination of semiquantitative and quantitative methods may also hold the key to unlocking the mixed-processes classification of depositional elements.

Abstract

Cancer metabolism is associated with enhanced lipogenesis required for rapid growth and proliferation. However, the magnitude of dysregulation of diverse lipid species mostly remains to be characterized, particularly in rare cancers such as ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC). Here we implemented a robust sample preparation workflow together with targeted LC-MS/MS to identify the lipidomic changes in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded specimen from OCCC as compared to uninvolved contralateral ovarian tissue. We quantitated 342 lipid species representing 28 lipid classes. We observed differential regulation of diverse lipid species belonging to several glycerophospholipid classes and trihexosylceramide. A number of unsaturated lipid species were increased whereas saturated lipid showed a decrease in OCCC as compared to the controls. We also carried out total fatty acid analysis and observed increase in the levels of several unsaturated fatty acids with concomitant increase in the index of stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD) in OCCC. We confirmed the upregulation of SCD, the rate-limiting enzyme for the synthesis of monounsaturated fatty acids, by immunohistochemistry (IHC) assays. Hence, by carrying out mass spectrometry analysis of archival tissue samples, we were able to provide novel insights into the lipidomic alterations of OCCC.

Abstract
Background
End-stage kidney disease (ESKD) incidence has been increasing over time, contributing significantly to morbidity and early mortality. However, there is limited data examining the psychosocial factors affecting people with ESKD and how the social worker fits within the multidisciplinary CKD care. This integrative systematic review aims to summarise the existing evidence on psychosocial determinants of outcomes in ESKD and the role of renal social worker.
Method:
Literature search was conducted using PubMed and MEDLINE targeting articles published from database inception until May 2021. This systematic review was performed in compliance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement. The Joanna Briggs Institute tools were employed to assess the quality of included studies.
Results
Of the 397 citations, 13 studies applicable to 1465 patients met the inclusion criteria. The studies were of cross-sectional, experimental, and exploratory qualitative design in nature. The findings of the studies were summarised into three major themes — psychosocial factors, role of the renal social worker, and impact of the renal social worker. The studies demonstrated that concerns related to adjustment, death and dying, family and social functioning, and loss were common amongst participants of the included studies indicating the need for a social worker. Three studies explored the impact of social workers in ESKD, revealing people who receive support from social workers had an improved quality of life, lower depression scores, reduced hospitalisations, and emergency room visits.
Conclusion
This review reports the multitude of physical and psychological stressors that patients with ESRD face, highlights the positive role renal social workers can play in improving the psychosocial stressors in this patient group and the need for large-scale randomised trials to understand the role of renal social workers as part of a multidisciplinary care.
