Authors: Indrahadi Deri , Wardana Amika , Pierewan Adi Cilik 
Published: February 2021

Background: The prevalence of diabetes mellitus is increasing globally and remains debated. Objective: This study examines the association of socioeconomic status with the prevalence of diabetes mellitus in Indonesia. Methods: This study used a cross-sectional design. Data obtained from the 2014 Indonesia Family Life Survey (IFLS), a nationally representative population survey data, which polled 30,497 individuals age 16 years and over in 13 provinces in Indonesia. Logistic regression models were used to estimate odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for the prevalence of diabetes mellitus with socioeconomic status. Results: Education level, employment status, age, and hypertension are related to the prevalence of diabetes mellitus. According to educational level, individuals with lower education level were more likely to have diabetes mellitus than those who had a higher level of education (OR=1.42; 95% CI: 1.21-1.67), higher risk was also found in those who were unemployed (OR=1.55; 95% CI: 1.33-1.82). Besides, age and hypertension were independent factors for a higher prevalence of diabetes mellitus, age >55 (OR=4.71; 95% CI: 4.06-5.46), hypertension (OR=5.86; 95% CI: 5.00-6.87). Diabetes mellitus also show significantly higher among individuals living in urban areas compared to individuals living in rural areas (OR=2.13; 95% CI: 1.78-2.55). Conclusions: Socioeconomic status has a significant association with the prevalence of diabetes mellitus among people above 15 years old in Indonesia. The government needs to design a preventive program to control this disease by considering the risk factors that may lead to the development of diabetes mellitus in Indonesia.

Alternativa quirúrgica de reparación duodenal en pediatría (presentación de caso), Hospital Infantil Dr. Robert Reid Cabral (HIRRC), República Dominicana
Authors: Cabrera Valerio Carlos , Roa Firelys , Castillo Rosa 
Published: February 2021

Introducción: el trauma cerrado de abdomen en pediatría ocasiona lesión de órganos abdominales en 8-12 % de la población, siendo lesiones duodenales solo el 10 % de estas, por lo que son poco frecuentes en pediatría. La principal causa de lesión duodenal se relaciona con abuso infantil, siendo los accidentes de vehículos de motor el segundo mecanismo más común. Cuando se trata de lesiones no destructivas, la reparación primaria del duodeno es razonable. Sin embargo, las lesiones destructivas ameritan estrategias de reparación más complejas.
Material y Método: presentamos paciente masculino de tres años edad con lesión duodenal grado III en ángulo duodenoyeyunal, la misma fue intervenida inicialmente mediante anastomosis primaria, presentado posterior dehiscencia. En su segunda intervención se realiza cierre duodenal distal y anastomosis gastroyeyunal, favoreciendo flujo retrogrado de vías biliares a estómago, con adecuada evolución.
Conclusión: existen múltiples abordajes quirúrgicos, los cuales representan aun hoy gran morbilidad. El cierre duodenal con la posterior decisión de cómo derivar las vías biliares, es probablemente el mayor desafío. Se plantea la posibilidad del cierre duodenal distal a las vías biliares, con drenaje retrógrado. Por lo cual la gastroyeyunostomía es una técnica alternativa en pediatría en la reparación de lesiones complejas del duodeno.

ABSTRACT

Objectives
To evaluate the antimicrobial activity, mechanical properties, and fluoride release capacity of glass ionomer cement (GIC) used for cementing orthodontic bands and modified by ethanolic extract of red propolis (EERP) in different concentrations.

Materials and Methods
Two orthodontic GICs containing EERP at 10%, 25%, and 50%, were used. The following assays were carried out: cell viability tests against Streptococcus mutans and Candida albicans, diametral tensile strength, compressive strength, shear bond strength, microhardness, and fluoride release capacity. The statistical analyses of the antimicrobial tests, fluoride release, diametral tensile strength, compressive strength, and microhardness were performed using two-way analysis of variance and Tukey test (P &lt; .05). Shear bond strength data were analyzed using one-way analysis of variance followed by Tukey test (P &lt; .05).

Results
At the concentrations of 25% and 50%, EERP was shown to be a promising antimicrobial agent incorporated into GICs against C albicans (P &lt; .001) and S mutans (P &lt; .001). The fluoride release capacity of the GICs was not affected, and the EERP concentration of 25% was the one that least affected the mechanical properties of the cements (P &gt; .05).

Conclusions
The GICs containing EERP at 25% showed a significant increase in their antimicrobial activity against S mutans and C albicans, while mechanical properties and fluoride release remained without significant changes.

Manure is a fertilizer derived from animal manure, which can improve the structure of peat soil and provide nutrients for lettuce plants (Lactuca sativa L.). Peat soil is a type of soil that has many obstacles in cultivation including acidic pH, low nutrient availability such as N, P, and K. Manure can be used in solid and liquid forms. This study aims to determine the dosage and the appropriate way of giving chicken manure to the yield of lettuce and the nature of the soil after being given chicken manure. This research has been carried out from April to June 2018 on experimental land, Agronomy Laboratory. This study used a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 7 treatments namely without fertilizer application (control), 37.5 g solid fertilizer of chicken manure, 75 g solid fertilizer of chicken manure, 112.5 g solid fertilizer of chicken manure, 37.5 g of solid fertilizer thawed chicken manure,75 g of solid fertilizer thawed chicken manure, 112.5 g of solid fertilizer thawed chicken manure. The results showed that 112.5 g solid manure from chicken manure was the appropriate dose to increase the growth of lettuce plants, namely plant height (15.48 cm), leaf width (11.60 cm), number of leaves (11.00 strands), weight plant (37.83 g), weight root plant (3.48 g), and increasing the total N content of the soil (0.40%).
A New Fuzzy Based UPFC Topology for Active Power Enhancement in an offshore Wind Farm
Authors: Rathore Dhanvanti , Singh N K 
Published: February 2021

The stability of a power system is the ability of a
power system to restore an operating state of equilibrium for
a given initial operating condition after it has been subjected
to a physical disturbance, most of the variables of the system
being limited so that almost the entire system remains intact.
To create a MATLAB SIMULINK model of odd shore wind
energy system having power being transmitted through DC
transmission system. The first model will have no power flow
controller and second model will have artificial intelligence
based controlling technique. To design a controller for
enhancing the power output from the wind energy system
using UPFC. This will be made to feed DC transmission
system. Finally integrating the system with long distance DC
transmission system and then to the grid so as to make it
more reliable and efficient. In this work a coordinated
control based on Fuzzy logic for UPFC for cluster of offshore
WPP connected to the same HVDC connection is being
implemented and analyzed. The study is targeting
coordination of reactive power flow and active power flow
between HVDC Converter and the WPP cluster while
providing offshore AC grid voltage control. Thus it can be
drawn from this work that while designing a power control
strategy the proposed fuzzy logic based active power
controller in UPFC can serve the purpose with better results
in terms of active as well as reactive power. This control can
also be used in hybrid systems thus making it more reliable

Using CRISPR-Cas9 for Therapeutic Protein Production (Review Article)
Authors: Khan Ashraf Ullah , Ullah Zabi 
Published: February 2021

Existence of CRISPR/Cas9 systems in bacteria and archaea has been noted to be the reason for these organisms’ ability to disarm invading nucleic acids. Such immunity is noted to arise from the targeting of the invading nucleic acids by guiding RNAs (sgRNAs), their cleavage by Cas9 (an endonuclease), and their subsequent integration into CRISPR locus. Recent studies have shown that the CRISPR/Cas9 tool can be adopted for gene editing in eukaryotic cells and thus offering potential for its use to treat genetic conditions. In this review, CRISPR/Cas9 has been shown to be an effective genome-editing tool with studies showing efficacy in zygote editing, in-vivo editing of somatic cells and ex-vivo editing of somatic cells. Occurrence of off-target effects however make zygote editing in human cells ethically questionable due to possibility of introducing unwanted mutations that may be passed on to the progeny. Nevertheless, observations that such off-target effects arise mainly from the promiscuity of sgRNAs rather that errors in CRISPR/Cas9 system show promise for increased specificity by developing better sgRNAs. Such increased specificity will facilitate the adoption of CRISPR/Cas9 for clinical use in treatment of conditions such as β-thalassemia, cystic fibrosis, Duchenne muscular dystrophy and HIV.

A pesquisa apresentada objetivou aplicar e desenvolver métricas urbanas quanti-qualitativas fundamentadas na componente formal e de usos para frações em bairros habitacionais, capazes de mensurar as configurações formal e espacial edificadas nas cidades, adotando-se como análise aplicada a cidade de João Pessoa, capital do Estado da Paraíba, Nordeste do Brasil. Constata-se que, acompanhando a tendência nacional, houve um aumento de 30% na compra e na construção de imóveis em 2018, consolidando os processos de verticalização e dispersão urbana em muitas cidades mesmo após recentes crises econômicas. Desse modo,utilizando João Pessoa como objeto analítico, mensuraram-se seis frações urbanas em dois períodos (2005 e 2015), por meio de mapeamento a partir de imagens de satélite, coletando-se dados sobre: Uso Edificado (residencial e não-residencial) e Índices Urbanísticos e de Ocupação. Posteriormente, estimou-se os (1) Índices de Uso Misto Térreo e o Índice de Uso Misto Total e (2) a aplicação na Matriz Espacial. Concluiu-se, por meio de análises paramétricas em 3D de cenários urbanos a partir dos dados coletados, que a combinação de procedimentos metodológicos experimentais é capaz de antecipar impactos espaciais sobre a qualidade dos bairros consolidados (dispersos e verticais), e ainda permite demonstrar cenários alternativos de desenho urbano e planejamento (legislação) ocupacional conforme características qualitativas desejadas para os bairros.

LOS LUGARES SAGRADOS EN EL BUDISMO O EL LUGAR DE LO SAGRADO EN EL BUDISMO
Authors: Nikolova Antoaneta 
Published: February 2021

Resumen: Este artículo tiene el propósito de examinar el significado de lo sagrado en una religión como el Budismo, donde no hay una idea de Dios como tal o ningún ser sobrenatural. En cambio, hay prácticas íntimas elaboradas para lograr la iluminación. El artículo tiene dos partes. La primera analíza los lugares sagrados en el Budismo, considerando así dos conceptos importantes el samsara y el nirvana. En la segunda parte se trata de los lugares sagrados en el Budismo comparando dos estructuras espaciales: la estupa como representativa de una estructura vertical y el manadala como horizontal. Tomando como fundamento la yuxtaposición de estos, aparentemente, conceptos y estructuras opuestas, el artículo revela que en términos del Budismo lo verdaderamente sagrado es lo no-sagrado: este es un término que trasciende la oposición sagrado-profano y expresa la visión específica budista de la no-dualidad. Palabras claves: Budismo; sagrado-profano; no-dualidad

Abstract

OBJECTIVE
To prospectively evaluate the clinical and prognostic importance of duodenal endoscopic and histologic findings, including duodenal mucosal counts of forkhead box P3-positive regulatory T cells (Foxp3+ Tregs), in dogs with immunosuppressant-responsive enteropathy (IRE).

ANIMALS
57 client-owned dogs with IRE.

PROCEDURES
The canine chronic enteropathy clinical activity index (CCECAI) was used to assess each dog when IRE was diagnosed (T0) and 1, 3, 6, and 12 months later. Dogs were grouped on the basis of clinical response (responder group vs nonresponder group) and 12-month long-term outcome (responded to treatment and did not relapse [good outcome group] vs did not respond to treatment or had relapsed [bad outcome group]). At T0, dogs underwent gastrointestinal endoscopy and endoscopic biopsy, with results for variables of duodenal endoscopic and histologic evaluations scored and compared across groups.

RESULTS
At T0, the overall median CCECAI score was 7; CCECAI score was not associated with clinical response or relapse. Dogs had significantly greater odds of being in the bad outcome group (vs the good outcome group) if they had a histologic score of 3 (OR, 3.5; 95% CI, 1.09 to 11.3). No differences in the counts of Foxp3+ Tregs were detected between groups.

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE
In dogs with IRE, results indicated that evaluation of Foxp3+ Tregs did not have prognostic value, whereas a duodenal histologic score of 3 could be a negative prognostic factor for response and relapse, and higher severity scores for intraepithelial lymphocytes and lamina propria lymphocytes and plasma cells in duodenal biopsy samples may be negatively associated with response.
Comparison of basilar sesamoidean and distal approaches for synoviocentesis of the forelimb digital flexor tendon sheath in horses
Authors: Slaughter-Mehfoud Kathryn M. , McCoy Annette M. 
Published: February 2021

Abstract

OBJECTIVE
To evaluate synoviocentesis of the equine forelimb digital flexor tendon sheath (DFTS) via a basilar sesamoidean approach (BSA) or distal approach (DA).

ANIMALS
21 healthy adult horses without DFTS-related lameness.

PROCEDURES
The forelimbs of each horse underwent the BSA or DA (21 limbs/approach) performed by 1 individual. The volume of synovial fluid (SF) aspirated, time from skin puncture to collection of SF, and number of attempts to place a needle in the DFTS were compared between approaches.

RESULTS
An SF sample was successfully aspirated from 16 of 21 (76%) limbs with the BSA and 20 of 21 (95%) limbs with the DA. For the BSA and DA, the number of attempts to obtain SF was 2 and 1, respectively; the median volume of SF obtained was 0.4 and 0.7 mL, respectively; and the median time to SF collection was 17.91 and 18.48 seconds, respectively. Between the approaches, the number of limbs with SF successfully aspirated and number of attempts to collect SF differed significantly, whereas the volume of SF aspirated and time to SF collection did not.

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE
Regarding SF collection from forelimb DFTSs in horses without DFTS-related disease, use of the DA had a greater success rate with fewer attempts, compared with findings for the BSA, which may reflect the relative ease of identifying anatomic landmarks for the DA. Results suggested that a DA for DFTS synoviocentesis in horses appears efficient and effective and may minimize limb trauma by requiring fewer attempts for SF sample collection, compared with a BSA.
Characteristics of sound production and associated pharyngeal jaws in the tomtate grunt Haemulon aurolineatum (Cuvier, 1830) in Caribbean reefs

The ability to produce sounds for acoustic communication is well known in different grunt species (Haemulidae). However, most of the sounds have not been described and the sound-producing mechanism of very few grunt species has been deeply studied. Additional data is needed to search for synapomorphy in the sonic mechanism. This study describes acoustic features and branchial anatomy in Haemulon aurolineatum. Correlations were found between some acoustic features and standard length, showing the largest specimens produced shorter, lower-pitched grunts of higher intensity. Examinations of acoustic features and branchial anatomy show that H. aurolineatum uses the same stridulatory mechanism described previously in H. flavolineatum. The unusual feature of Haemulon species concerns the fourth ceratobranchials. These appear to be part of the lower pharyngeal jaws since they possess firmly attached teeth that face the upper pharyngeal jaws. The stridulation results from the rubbing of both pharyngeal and fourth ceratobranchial teeth. This mechanism is probably common to the 23 Haemulon species, but additional information is needed regarding the mechanism of other Haemulinae species to produce stridulatory sounds. Fourth ceratobranchials could constitute a key element of Haemulinae ability to produce sounds providing an eventual synapomorphic aspect of the mechanism in the family.

Sepsis is life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection and become one of leading causes of death in Intensive Care Unit (ICU). The two components of treating sepsis shock are fluid resuscitation and administration of vasopressor. Early administration of vasopressor in conjunction with fluid administration can reduce mortality because it reduces the volume of resuscitation so as to prevent excess fluid in the patient. Recent recommendation from Surviving Sepsis Campaign (SSC) suggest fluid resuscitation and medication within the first 1 hour including vasopressor administration in concomitant life-threatening cases of hyptension or immediately after fluid resuscitation to maintain MAP level ≥ 65mmHg. Holistic treatment will reduce the mortality of patient with sepsis shock in the ICU
