TikTok Videos, Carnivalesque Provocations for Teachers: Political Responses to Populism’s Right-Wing
Authors: Westbrook Fiona 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
This article explores how TikTok videos, situated in a postdigital space and means of engagement, visibilise divergent responses to right-wing, populist political governments with anti-liberal, anti-socialist policies, offering video-based provocations for teachers. Even traditionally left-wing havens are shifting to right-wing populism, seemingly exemplified by the Aotearoa Coalition Government, implicating the prevalence of this phenomena. Due to education being an ideological battlefield, teachers are heavily implicated by such shifts, encouraging a visibilising of spaces and strategies for their responses. In this article, Mikhail Bakhtin’s dialogic philosophy, with special attention to his concept of carnivalesque, is brought into conversation with TikTok videos, facilitating a means to conceptualise and analyse this postdigital, divergent underground as a mirthing means of speaking back. These mocking, visual responses to right-wing governments are then signalled as provocations for teachers experiencing a rise of populist policies. This article concludes by suggesting how teachers may utilise TikTok videos to politically speak back in divergent ways to right-wing governments, encouraging creative and diverse engagements in this postdigital platform.
Urine Sample Handling in Laboratory—Process Reengineering is the Need of the Hour
Authors: Soni Mamta 
Published: September 2024

Background and Aims: Monitoring and a continual improvement of turnaround time (TAT) in urine examination and reporting is essential for improved management of laboratory quality as well as ensuring patient satisfaction. TAT can be impacted by multiple factors, some of which appear to be beyond the control of laboratory, especially the preanalytical phase of urine examination such as specimen collection, transportation and sample preparation. The aim of the study was to compare the preanalytical variables like TAT for transportation and incidences of spill between our current urinalysis workflow process and the new urinalysis workflow process using a pneumatic chute-compatible closed urine collection system. Materials and Methods: This observational prospective study was conducted on 4/9/23 from 9 am to 4 pm at the laboratory of Apollo Main Hospital, Chennai. Pneumatic chute compatible closed urine collection cup was given to the patients in Group-A and normal screw cap containers which we are currently using were given to the patients in Group-B. Once the urine samples were collected in the respective containers, they were transported to the laboratory using pneumatic chutes for Group-A samples and manual carry for Group-B samples. Analysis of transportation time using the new collection method (Group-A) when compared with the current method of practice (Group-B) was done. The incidence of spillage was also monitored. Results: A significant improvement was noticed in the transportation process and spill incidence with closed collection devices through the pneumatic chute. Conclusion: To conclude, the implementation of pneumatic chute compatible closed collection tubes for urine improves the transportation and processing time, eliminates the manual carry of urine samples, eliminates the incidences of leakage and spillage, reduces errors and reduces the exposure of urine to healthcare workers, thereby leading to significant improvement in patient care, patient experience and staff satisfaction.

Abstract
Background
At present, hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is an important complication of partial hepatectomy and liver transplantation, and it is an important cause of poor prognosis. Spleen tyrosine kinase(SYK) plays an important role in a variety of signaling pathways in the liver, but its role in hepatic IRI is still unclear. This study aims to investigate the role and mechanism of SYK in hepatic IRI and tumor recurrence.

Methods
We first observed the activation of SYK in the liver of mice in response to hepatic IRI. Subsequently, Pharmacological inhibitions of SYK were used to evaluated the effect of SYK on neutrophil recruitment and NETosis, and further explored the effect of SYK on IRI and tumor recurrence.

Results
Our study shows that SYK is activated in response to hepatic IRI and aggravates liver injury. On the one hand, neutrophils SYK during the early stage of liver reperfusion increases neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) production by promoting Pyruvate kinase M2(PKM2) nuclear translocation leading to upregulation of phosphorylated STAT3, thereby exacerbating liver inflammation and tumor recurrence. On the other hand, macrophages SYK can promote the recruitment of neutrophils and increase the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome and IL1β, which further promotes the formation of NETs.

Conclusions
Our study demonstrates that neutrophil and macrophage SYK synergistically promote hepatic IRI and tumor recurrence, and SYK may be a potential target to improve postoperative hepatic IRI and tumor recurrence.

Published: September 2024

AbstractMagnetoencephalography/electroencephalography (M/EEG) can provide insights into migraine pathophysiology and help develop clinically valuable biomarkers. To integrate and summarize the existing evidence on changes in brain function in migraine, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis (PROSPERO CRD42021272622) of resting-state M/EEG findings in migraine. We included 27 studies after searching MEDLINE, Web of Science Core Collection, and EMBASE. Risk of bias was assessed using a modified Newcastle–Ottawa Scale. Semi-quantitative analysis was conducted by vote counting, and meta-analyses of M/EEG differences between people with migraine and healthy participants were performed using random-effects models. In people with migraine during the interictal phase, meta-analysis revealed higher power of brain activity at theta frequencies (3–8 Hz) than in healthy participants. Furthermore, we found evidence for lower alpha and beta connectivity in people with migraine in the interictal phase. No associations between M/EEG features and disease severity were observed. Moreover, some evidence for higher delta and beta power in the premonitory compared to the interictal phase was found. Strongest risk of bias of included studies arose from a lack of controlling for comorbidities and non-automatized or non-blinded M/EEG assessments. These findings can guide future M/EEG studies on migraine pathophysiology and brain-based biomarkers, which should consider comorbidities and aim for standardized, collaborative approaches.

Published: September 2024

AbstractCurrently, phage biocontrol is increasingly used as a green and natural technology for treating Salmonella and other infections, but phages exhibit instability and activity loss during storage. Therefore, in this study, the effects of lyophilization on the activity and stability of phage cocktails for the control of multidrug-resistant Salmonella in broiler chickens were determined. Eight serotypes of Salmonella were isolated and identified from broiler chicken farms, and bacteriophages against multidrug-resistant Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Kentucky, Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Typhimrium and Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Enteritidis were isolated. The bacteriophage cocktail was prepared and lyophilized, and it was subjected to in vitro and in vivo examinations. A reconstituted lyophilized bacteriophage cocktail was used for the oral treatment of chicks before and after challenge with multidrug-resistant S. Kentucky. The colonization of cecum by S. Kentucky was detected by using real-time PCR, and the serum levels of IgM, IgA and IL-4 and pathological changes in the different groups were detected. Three Caudovirales phages families were identified including Autographiviridae, Straboviridae and Drexlerviridae against multidrug-resistant S. Kentucky, S. Typhimrium and S. Enteritidis. The groups treated with the bacteriophage cocktail showed no clinical signs, no postmortem lesions, and a mortality rate of 0%, which improved the growth performance parameters. Additionally, the estimated serum levels of IgM, IgA and IL-4 were significantly greater in the bacteriophage cocktail-treated groups. Lyophilization effectively preserves the long-term storage stability of phages. Therefore, lyophilized bacteriophage cocktail therapy is a valuable approach for controlling multidrug-resistant Salmonella infections in broiler chickens.

Published: September 2024

Abstract
Background
Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is the most important risk factor for skin cancer development. Sunlight is the main source of UV radiation in the general population. In addition, tanning beds are a source of artificial UV radiation. Since the incidence of skin cancer is increasing worldwide, it is necessary to monitor UV-related risk behaviors such as intentional indoor and outdoor tanning, as well as sun protection behavior in the general population and specific subgroups and settings. This is the aim of the National Cancer Aid Monitoring online (NCAM-online), a continuation and further development of the NCAM.

Methods
The NCAM-online is a longitudinal trend study consisting of four annual survey waves. Each year, 4,000 individuals aged 16–65 years living in Germany will be surveyed using online questionnaires. Each year, intentional indoor and outdoor tanning will be assessed. In addition, varying specific topics regarding skin cancer prevention, such as the utilization of skin cancer screening, will be addressed in the questionnaires.

Discussion
The findings of the NCAM-online will provide an important basis for the German Cancer Aid and Working Group on Dermatologic Prevention (Arbeitsgemeinschaft Dermatologische Prävention, ADP) to develop targeted prevention campaigns and projects aimed at preventing skin cancer. The explorative nature of the NCAM-online allows for the identification of new potential starting points for prevention and education. In addition, the longitudinal design allows for a description of the trend in the prevalence of intentional tanning. For tanning bed use, representative trend data from 2012 are available for Germany, to which NCAM-online will add annual data until 2027.
The association between joint Serum Neurofilament Light Chain and type 2 diabetes with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in US adults: a longitudinal study of NHANES
Authors: Wang Cuihua , Wang Shuguang , Wang Ying 
Published: September 2024

Abstract
Background
In the past, there has been a clear conclusion regarding the sole impact of serum neurofilament light chain (sNfL) levels or type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) on the risk of death. However, the combined effect of sNfL levels and type 2 DM on all-cause and cardiovascular mortality is still uncertain.

Methods
This study was a prospective cohort study based on data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). The sNfL levels were measured through immunological methods using blood samples collected during the survey. The diagnosis of diabetes was based on rigorous criteria, and participants’ mortality data were followed up until December 31, 2019. Firstly, we separately examined the effects of sNfL and type 2 DM on all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, and finally studied the comprehensive impact of the combination of sNfL and type 2 DM on the risk of mortality. Cumulative Kaplan-Meier curves, multivariate logistic regression and sensitivity analysis were incorporated throughout the entire study.

Results
Participants in the highest quartile of sNfL were observed. Multivariable COX regression model showed that increased sNfL levels and type 2 DM were respectively associated with an increased risk of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. Furthermore, elevated sNfL levels were significantly associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality after adjustment for confounding factors. When considering both elevated sNfL levels and type 2 DM, individuals had a significantly increased risk of mortality. Sensitivity analysis confirmed the robustness of the findings.

Conclusions
These results suggest that elevated levels of sNfL and type 2 DM are associated with an increased risk of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, and that participants with increased sNfL levels associated with type 2 DM have higher all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality.

Published: September 2024

Abstract
Background
Fluoride plays a vital role in preventing dental caries, with its addition to oral care products significantly promoting oral hygiene. A no-rinse brushing method aims to increase fluoride retention in the oral cavity, as rinsing with water decreases fluoride levels in saliva, which could affect remineralization. While the no-rinse brushing method holds promise for improving fluoride retention in the oral cavity, critical inquiries persist regarding its safety. This study investigated the kinetics of oral fluoride and potential risks to fully assess its effectiveness and implications for oral health.

Methods
Ten healthy adults participated in a crossover study comparing the no-rinse with the rinse method. All subjects followed American Dental Association (ADA) brushing guidelines. Levels of fluoride in saliva (supernatant and sediment) and urine were measured over time, and plasma fluoride was measured one hour after brushing. Pharmacokinetic parameters were also calculated from the data.

Results
Participants using the no-rinse method had higher fluoride levels in supernatant immediately and up to 30 min post-brushing compared to the rinse method. Fluoride levels in sediment were higher only immediately after brushing. The total fluoride concentration in saliva remained elevated for up to 5 min with the no-rinse method. Systemic fluoride absorption showed no significant difference between the two methods based on blood and urine analysis.

Conclusion
This research indicates that the no-rinse method can enhance fluoride retention in the oral cavity for up to 30 min after a single brushing. In addition, our findings suggest that this method does not significantly influence systemic fluoride levels or toxicity.

Abstract
Background
Immigrant Latinas (who are foreign-born but now reside in the USA) are at greater risk for developing postpartum depression than the general perinatal population, but many face barriers to treatment. To address these barriers, we adapted the Mothers and Babies Course—an evidence-based intervention for postpartum depression prevention—to a virtual group format. Additional adaptations are inclusion of tailored supplemental child health content and nutrition benefit assistance. We are partnering with Early Learning Centers (ELC) across the state of Maryland to deliver and test the adapted intervention.

Methods
The design is a Hybrid Type I Effectiveness-Implementation Trial. A total of 300 participants will be individually randomized to immediate (N = 150) versus delayed (N = 150) receipt of the intervention, Mothers and Babies Virtual Group (MB-VG). The intervention will be delivered by trained Early Learning Center staff. The primary outcomes are depressive symptoms (measured via the Center for Epidemiologic Studies-Depression Scale), parenting self-efficacy (measured via the Parental Cognition and Conduct Towards the Infant Scale (PACOTIS) Parenting Self-Efficacy subscale), and parenting responsiveness (measured via the Maternal Infant Responsiveness Instrument) at 1-week, 3-month, and 6-month post-intervention. Depressive episodes (Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-V- Disorders Research Version) at 3-month and 6-month post-intervention will also be assessed. Secondary outcomes include social support, mood management, anxiety symptoms, perceived stress, food insecurity, and mental health stigma at 1-week, 3-month, and 6-month post-intervention. Exploratory child outcomes are dysregulation and school readiness at 6-month post-intervention. Intervention fidelity, feasibility, acceptability, and appropriateness will also be assessed guided by the Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, Maintenance (RE-AIM) framework.

Discussion
This study will be one of the first to test the efficacy of a group-based virtual perinatal depression intervention with Latina immigrants, for whom stark disparities exist in access to health services. The hybrid effectiveness-implementation design will allow rigorous examination of barriers and facilitators to delivery of the intervention package (including supplemental components) which will provide important information on factors influencing intervention effectiveness and the scalability of intervention components in Early Learning Centers and other child-serving settings.

Abstract
Background
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is the quintessential autoimmune disease, as it is characterized by hyperactivity of CD4+ T cells and subsequently drives lupus pathology. Follicular helper T (TFH) cells play an important role in B cell maturation and antibody production. However, which specific subset of cTFH cells drives B cell function and contributes to the development of anti-dsDNA antibodies and SLE pathogenesis remains unclear.

Methods
Peripheral blood mononuclear cells from SLE patients with inactive (n = 11) and active (n = 21) were used to determine and detect frequencies and phenotypes of circulating TFH cells (cTFH), memory cTFH, and B cell subsets. The correlations among cTFH cell subsets and phenotypes, B cell subsets, anti-dsDNA autoantibodies, and clinical parameters were analyzed.

Results
In subjects with active SLE, cTFH1 and cTFH17 cells were significantly expanded and activated. These expanded cTFH cells expressed memory phenotypes; cTFH1 cells were predominantly central memory (CM) type, while cTFH17 cells were largely effector memory (EM) type. Phenotyping B cell subsets in these patients showed increased frequencies of aNAV and DN2 B cells. Clinically, ICOS+ cTFH1, ICOS+ cTFH17 cells, and SLEDAI-2k scores were found to be correlated. Analysis of cTFH-B cell relationship revealed positive correlations among ICOS+ cTFH1 cells, aNAV B cells, and anti-dsDNA antibodies. Activation of ICOS+ cTFH17 cells was significantly related to the expansion of aNAV and DN2 B cells. The presence of CM cells in cTFH1 and cTFH17 subsets was correlated with aNAV and DN2 B cell frequencies.

Conclusion
SLE cTFH cells were found to be polarized toward cTFH1 and cTFH17 cells; activation of these cTFH subsets was significantly associated with disease activity score, aNAV, DN2 B cell expansion, and anti-dsDNA antibody level. Thus, the interactions among cTFH1, cTFH17, and B cells likely contribute to the development of autoantibodies and the pathogenesis in SLE.

Abstract
Background
Bala is an important Ayurvedic drug used for the treatment of many diseases. Sida cordifolia (L.), Malvaceae family, is the genuine source drug of Bala as per Ayurvedic Pharmacopeia of India. The other species of Sida like Sida acuta, Sida rhombifolia, Sida alnifolia and Sida cordata are also used as adulterants or substitutes of Bala. The objective of the present study is to identify a scientifically validated substitute for Bala (Sida cordifolia) by detailed phytochemical evaluation of its allied species.

Results
Preliminary analysis showed that all the selected species contain similar class of compounds like alkaloids, phenolics, flavonoids, etc. Quantitative estimation of major class of compounds such as total alkaloids, total phenolics and total flavonoids was done by spectrophotometric methods. Polyphenolic contents of selected species are almost comparable. In the case of alkaloids, variations have been observed among the species. Chemical profiles of selected species were compared by HPTLC and HPLC analysis. Major chemical constituents are found to be common for the selected species. HPLC profiles also showed similarity in their peak pattern.

Conclusion
Based on the phytochemical studies, the species like S. alnifolia, S. acuta and S. rhombifolia contain almost similar types of phytochemicals. However, the chemical constituents of Sida cordata are found to be different from other allied species. Further studies including pharmacological evaluation are required to ensure the therapeutic properties of allied species to confirm the substitute.
