A PRESENÇA DO BLASTOCERUS DICHOTOMUS NAS PINTURAS RUPESTRES DO PARQUE NACIONAL SERRA DA CAPIVARA E SEUS INDICADORES PALEOAMBIENTAIS
Authors: Almeida Vitor José Rampaneli 
Published: December 2024

Resumo: No Parque Nacional Serra da Capivara – PNSC existe uma concentração muito grande de sítios arqueológicos que fornecem informações diversificadas sobre as primeiras ocupações humanas na América, pois retratam muitas características de sua existência nos diferentes ecossistemas da região. É possível reconhecer nas pinturas – a partir das variadas representações rupestres zoomorfas e suas prováveis interpretações – espécies inexistentes hoje na região e outras totalmente extintas; algumas são tão bem elaboradas, que é possível reconhecer o sexo do animal gravado, por meio da presença de galhadas e outras características determinantes de gênero nas espécies. A partir da identificação e do estudo aprofundado da fauna representada nas pinturas rupestres do Parque Nacional Serra da Capivara, e das informações auferidas na literatura, busca-se reconstruir as prováveis condições ambientais do período em que elas foram feitas, tornando-se, assim, um confiável indicador paleoambiental.Abstract: In Serra da Capivara National Park there is a wide range of archeological sites which provides diverse information about the first human settlements in America since it holds many characteristics from their existence in different ecosystems of the region. It is possible to identify in the paintings – from the various rock zoomorphic representations and their likely interpretations – species absent today in the region and others completely extinct; some are so well done that it is possible to identify the gender of the printed animal through antlers and other species gender determinant characteristics. Based on the identification and a deep study of the fauna pictured in the cave paintings of the Serra do Capivara National Park as well as on the information gathered from the literature, the aim is to rebuild the probable environmental conditions from the period when the paintings were made, thus becoming a reliable paleoenvironmental reference.

Published: December 2024

This study aims to find out the overview of the capacity of educators in integrative holistic early childhood development services to quality consisting of education, health, nutrition and care, care, protection and welfare services in the ECE holistic integrative education unit in Jepara Regency. Educator capacity refers to the ability to apply ECE holistic integrative service insights in teaching units. This study uses a descriptive quantitative method with a survey approach. The sample taken in this study was 187 ECE holistic integrative educators in Jepara Regency. The determination of the sample in this study uses a proportional stratification technique because of the stratified sampling. The reason for using this technique is that not all samples have criteria that correspond to the phenomenon being studied. The data collection tool uses a mixed questionnaire through a google form and data analysis using a percentage formula. The results of the study show that the description of the capacity of educators in early childhood development services towards quality has a moderate category. This research suggestion is expected for the Jepara Regency Education Office to provide socialization and form a ECE holistic integrative task force as mandated in Presidential Regulation No. 60 of 2013. For researchers, it is hoped that the next researcher can use an in-depth method and involve many parties such as parents, the Education Office, the Health Office and the Corrections Office to be used as a sample in analyzing the implementation of ECE holistic integrative services in all elements of services, namely education, health, nutrition and care, nurturing, protection and welfare.

Authors: Kutniauskaitė V. , Šegždaitė G. , Žilionytė G. , Pajėdienė E. 
Published: December 2024

Insomnia is a sleep disorder characterized by difficulty falling asleep or maintaining sleep after waking up. With the increasing pace of life and high levels of stress, there is a rising number of individuals reporting sleep disturbances. Recently, there has been a growing interest in various cannabis preparations, particularly in cannabinoids derived from Cannabis sativa plants, for the treatment of insomnia. Delta-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD) are commonly used to treat insomnia. Both of these substances have shown potential in improving sleep quality and have historically been used to induce sleep. Despite their widespread use, there is still a lack of reliable research to prove their effectiveness. Nevertheless, cannabinoids remain frequently used substances in the management of sleep disorders. While THC and CBD may enhance the sleep quality by reducing nighttime awakenings, shortening sleep onset latency, and increasing the total sleep time, their efficacy in treating insomnia lacks scientific validation. Additionally, there are safety concerns associated with cannabinoids, including potential negative impacts on the sleep quality, risk of abuse or dependence, and the development of tolerance with long-term use.This article provides a comprehensive review of literature concerning the effects and safety of cannabinoids on sleep and sleep-wake rhythms, as well as their potential benefits in treating insomnia and other sleep disorders.

Authors: Oumarbaeva-Malone Yuliya , McQuistion Kaitlyn , Quinn Grace , Mayer Erik J. , Manicone Paul 
Published: December 2024

OBJECTIVE
Delays in discharges have a downstream effect on emergency department admissions, wait times, intensive care unit transfers, and elective admissions. This quality improvement project’s aim was to increase the percentage of discharges before noon from a hospital medicine service from 19% to 30% over a 6-month period and sustain the increase for 6 months.

METHODS
Interventions included introduction of a dedicated patient flow provider (PFP), optimization of workflow, technology assistance with discharge tasks, and multidisciplinary education on patient flow. The primary outcome was percentage of discharges before noon, and secondary outcome was length of stay (LOS). The process measure compared discharges before noon with and without the PFP. Additional equity and regression analyses were completed. The balancing measure was 7-day readmissions.

RESULTS
Discharges before noon rose from baseline 19% to 34%. On days the PFP was present, discharges before noon were 43% vs 22% when not present. Rational subgrouping showed an initial and persistent disparity in discharges before noon for racial and ethnic minority patients and patients who use a language other than English (LOE). LOS remained stable from baseline 2.74 to 2.54 days. There was no change in 7-day readmission rate.

CONCLUSION
Discharges before noon significantly increased after the addition of a staff member dedicated to discharge tasks. Additional staffing represents a large investment, and additional studies are needed to quantify the financial impact of this intervention. Future targeted work to address persistent disparities in discharges before noon for racial and ethnic minority patients and those who use an LOE is also needed.

Silver nanoparticles have been synthesized in numerous ways, due to their diverse applications, including green procedures that used an extract of plants for the reduction of metal ions. This study delineates the green synthesis and characterization of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) from the leaf extract of Clerodendrum japonicum (Thunb.) Sweet (CJ) and assesses the antioxidant as well as antibacterial characteristics. The biosynthesis of AgNPs was accomplished by reacting the aqueous leaf extract of the plant with a solution of silver nitrate (AgNO3). The creation of AgNPs was indicated by the visual colour change of the reaction concoction from golden to deep brown and the absorption peak at 442 nanometer (nm) in the ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. The Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FESEM) and the High-Resolution Transmission Electron Microscope (HRTEM) images have revealed the generated AgNPs as spherical and oblate in shape which is 20-40 nm in size, whereas X-Ray power Diffraction evaluation revealed the crystalline feature. The existence of functional groups of synthesized AgNPs was detected by the Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FTIR) spectrum. The synthesized AgNPs showed free radical scavenging activity using 2, 2-Diphenyl-1-picryl hydrazyl assay with IC50 value, 7.02±1 μg/mL. The antibacterial assay showed an effective activity towards E. Coli and S. aureus by developing a well-defined zone of inhibition. The results of this study accentuate the biomedical potential of the above-mentioned plant, though further research is needed to implement it in clinical practice.

Changes in the STR profile of cells in the process of obtaining a stable cell line
Authors: Malchenkova A. A. , Kosobokova E. N. 
Published: December 2024

Background. Loss of heterozygosity, loss of the Y chromosome, and other types of genetic alterations are characteristic of tumor cell lines. Standard methods for detecting such changes are effortand time-consuming, and costly. Routine laboratory analysis of the authenticity and absence of intraspecific cell lines contamination using short tandem repeats (STR) profiling also allows for monitoring some genetic changes that cells undergo during the life cycle. The location of some potential STR loci is close to regulatory oncogenic loci, so many researchers note the prognostic and diagnostic utility of using STR profiling at the primary stage of genetic characterization of cell lines.Aim. Control of cell identity and genetic variability during the establishment of a stable cell line.Materials and methods. Profiling was carried out for primary cell cultures, for xenografts samples mel Lap nude, mel Kas nude and mel Pet nude, as well as during cell culture at 8th, 10th, 20th passages of the mel Lap, at 10th, 20th passages of the mel Kas and at 5th, 10th, 20th, 49th passages of the mel Pet, as well as after defrosting archived samples.Results. For the mel Lap culture, by passage 8, a loss of heterozygosity was observed at the SE33 locus, and then the genetic profile remained stable. By passage 10, mel Kas cells lost heterozygosity for two loci SE33 and D6S1043, and in the CSF1PO locus at passage 0, amplification of three alleles was observed – 11, 12, 13. Subsequently, the culture maintained a stable STR profile. By the 5th passage, the mel Pet cell culture lost heterozygosity for almost all the studied loci, but then its STR profile remained unchanged throughout 49 passages and in the xenograft material.Conclusion. The STR profiling method allows not only to monitor genetic stability in a cell line and the absence of intraspecific contamination during cultivation, but also, being fast and cheap, can be used as an additional primary test for significant genetic changes in cells.

Host modulatory therapies can be an effective modality of intervention in periodontal diseases as one of the adjunctive treatment options. This clinical study was carried out to evaluate the efficacy of sub microbial dose of Doxycycline (SDD) 20mg twice daily, as an adjunct to periodontal surgery in patients with generalised aggressive periodontitis (GAP). To assess the changes in probing pocket depth (PD) & clinical attachment level (CAL). The study population included patients registering at the OPD, Department of Periodontics. A total of 60 patients with GAP were selected for the study, who were equally divided into two groups A & B. Group A, placed on SDD 20mg twice a day for 09 months immediately after scaling and root planing (SRP) followed by periodontal surgery. Group B treated with SRP & periodontal surgery. The parameters like PD, CAL, BOP, gingival index & oral hygiene index-simplified were recorded at baseline and post-operative 90, 180 & 270 days. The inter-group comparison of probing PD & CAL values revealed a statistically highly significant difference between group A & group B at 90, 180 and 270 days post-operatively with ‘p’ value = 0.000 & 0.067 respectively, but insignificant changes in other parameters. The Reduction in PD and CAL improvements were significantly greater in group A with adjunctive SDD than for the group B. Thus, adjunctive treatment with SDD was shown to augment the clinical attachment gains achieved by periodontal surgery.

Published: December 2024

The objective of this survey is to assess the incidence of root canal treatment in specific teeth and its association with the patient's gender and age.A popular dental operation called root canal therapy (RCT) is used to preserve teeth with damaged or infected pulp. Anterior and posterior teeth have different incidences of RCT due to variations in tooth structure, function, and decay susceptibility. Age and gender can also have an impact on the requirement for RCT, which emphasises how crucial it is to comprehend these trends for improved clinical care. The data for the present study was retrieved from the records of the dental department. Data of 2275 patients, out of which 797 were males and 1478 were females. The inclusion criteria for this study consisted of data from patients with teeth that had undergone endodontic treatment. Data collected included age, gender, and the specific tooth number that received endodontic treatment. Data was analyzed using a computer software program, SPSS 20. In this study, the majority of patients receiving endodontic treatment were between the ages of 31 to 40, accounting for 36% of the cases. The mandibular first molar was the most commonly treated tooth for root canal procedures, followed by the mandibular second molar. When gender and tooth count were correlated, the mandibular first molar underwent root canal therapy the most frequently in both genders. The majority of patients getting root canal therapy were females, with mandibular first molars being the most common teeth for both genders.
