Authors: Bogdanova A. Y. , Iovenko A. V. , Koval G. M. 
Published: June 2024

Dermatological diseases are a fairly common problem encountered in the practice of veterinarians worldwide. However, the types of clinical cases of dermatopathology and their prevalence may vary from region to region due to factors such as breed prevalence, genetics, environmental conditions and epizootic data, available methods of prevention and treatment, etc. This study aimed to monitor dermatological patients in Mykolaiv to determine their current prevalence and the possibility of reducing the trends of the most common dermatological problems in the future. The following objectives were set: to collect statistical data on cases of dermatological diseases among cats and dogs; to study the species, sex, breed, and age prevalence of diseases in animals owned by residents of Mykolaiv; to analyze the data obtained on the types of diseases, compare their prevalence and identify trends. The study's material was data from the register of sick animals at the Veles Veterinary Clinic (Mykolaiv), which were entered into tables and used for statistical analysis. During the study period (from 22.12.2023 to 19.01.2024), 41 dermatological patients were diagnosed, the majority of whom were cats (49 %) and dogs (46 %), with a predominance of male sex and age under 1 year. The most commonly diagnosed conditions were dermatomycosis (22 %), dermatitis (19.5 %), malassezia (9.8 %), eczema (9.8 %), pododermatitis (7.3 %) and eosinophilic granuloma (7.3 %). The systematic monitoring of dermatological pathologies of small animals in Mykolaiv will be carried out to control the epizootic situation in the city, possibly further reducing the incidence trends.

Published: June 2024

The sacred forests of the Western Highlands Cameroon are, like other forests, a reserve of plants and genes, both known and unknown. They are privileged places for communication with ancestors. They provide significant environmental and socio-economic benefits; despite the pressure they are increasingly coming under. The aim of this study is to categorise the different uses of the sacred forests of Bafou, Baleveng and Bamendou, and then to assess the carbon stock of the woody plants in these forests. A survey form was used to record the various benefits derived by local people from the sacred forests. Individuals were counted in 30 m x 100 m plots. All individuals with a diameter ≥5 cm at 1.30 m above ground were considered. Carbon sequestered by forests was estimated using the non-destructive method. The study shows that the traditional laws protecting these forests are increasingly being violated by local people. These forests are cultural properties for the village and provide the local population with a variety of products. The most frequently cited uses are firewood, food products, medicinal plants and sacrifices. A total of 54 species, 47 genera and 29 families have been identified. Of these species, around 40.35% are used in one way or another by local people. The values of carbon sequestered by these forests vary from one forest to another and according to the type of equation chosen. The Bamendou sacred forest recorded the highest value, 443.9 t C /ha and 287.79 t C /ha respectively, using the equations of Djomo et al. (2010) and Fayolle (2013). This work presents the benefits of sacred forests for local populations. Management strategies for these forests should be strengthened by the State to ensure more sustainable conservation of this rich heritage.

Published: June 2024

Seleção de diferentes microrganismos e substratos são importantes desafios para viabilizar potenciais resíduos para alimentação animal. Diante disso, objetivou-se avaliar os efeitos da fermentação semissólida (FSS) com o fungo Lentinus tigrinus no enriquecimento proteico e degradação das frações fibrosas de diferentes resíduos agroindustriais para alimentação animal. As cepas foram repicadas por 7 dias até crescimento visível do micélio e posteriormente inoculadas nos substratos. Cinco tipos de resíduos agroindustriais foram usados como substrato: Bagaço de cana (BC), coproduto do desfibramento do sisal (CDS), feno do CDS, resíduo seco de cervejaria (RCS) e resíduo úmido de cervejaria (RUC). Amostras do substrato sem inócuo e após a FSS foram coletadas para análise bromatológica em triplicata. Os teores de MS não apresentaram grandes índices de perdas durante o período de 24 horas, mantendo um valor muito próximo ao inicial em todos os resíduos. Foi observado um enriquecimento proteico nos cinco tipos de resíduos agroindustriais estudados usando FSS por L. tigrinus com destaque para o resíduo úmido de cervejaria, 50%. Foi também neste substrato que houve significativa redução de lignina (17%) sob as condições estabelecidas. Todos os resíduos deste estudo podem ser usados como substrato para o enriquecimento protéico e destinados como alimentos para animais. Todavia, o resíduo de cervejaria e o coproduto do desfibramento do sisal, nas diferentes formas avaliadas, se destacaram.

Published: June 2024

BackgroundCoronary heart disease (CHD) is representative of cardiovascular disease and the leading cause of death in humans. Previous studies have shown that kidney disease is associated with CHD, and current treatment options that can improve both cardiac and renal functions still have some limitations. The traditional Chinese medicine Bu-Shen-Huo-Xue granule (BSHXG) can promote blood rheology, inhibit platelet agglutination, and improve heart and kidney functions.MethodsThis is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial. A total of 210 participants will be randomized to the intervention group and the placebo group. The Guang’anmen Hospital of China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences is the leading center, and the Affiliated Hospital of Shandong University of Chinese Medicine and the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine are the participating units. In addition to conventional pharmacotherapy for angina, the intervention group will receive BSHXG while the placebo group will receive BSHXG placebo. All participants will receive 2 months of treatment with 6 months of follow-up. The primary outcome is the efficacy of angina pectoris symptoms in CHD. Secondary outcomes are nitroglycerin arrest, ECG efficacy, Seattle Angina Questionnaire score, serology indicators, assessment of safety, and cardiovascular endpoint events. The transcriptome and metabolome will be used to screen biomarkers for diagnosis and efficacy evaluation.DiscussionThis study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Bu-Shen-Huo-Xue granule in the treatment of coronary heart disease, and to evaluate the benefits to patients with coronary heart disease from both cardiac and renal indicators.Trial registrationThis trial is approved by the Ethical Review Committee of the Guang’anmen Hospital China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences with the number 2022-224-KY-01, and has been registered on the Chinese Clinical Trials Registry with the number ChiCTR2300070977 on 27 April 2023.

Published: June 2024

IntroductionContemporary educational research has extensively explored the link between anxiety and student performance, yet there's a gap in understanding this relationship in classrooms with varying levels of active learning. This study aims to establish connections between instructional design, anxiety levels, and student performance, ultimately creating a comprehensive theoretical framework.MethodsThis study was conducted during the pandemic. Data from 186 respondents at Northeast Forestry University were collected through an online survey, and 25 students were randomly selected for interviews to gather feedback. In the practical application of the introductory course “Basics Product Design,” the Rain Class software was used to facilitate an active learning environment. Data from the online survey were organized in SPSS, then imported into the structural model framework in AMOS to calculate fit indices and other values to test hypotheses, applying structural equation modeling. Additionally, the relationship between anxiety levels and student performance was analyzed based on data from five classes using different instructional designs.ResultsThe results indicated that cold calling was significantly positively correlated with anxiety levels (SE = 0.632, P &lt; 0.001), group work was significantly positively correlated with anxiety (SE = 0.166, P &lt; 0.05), clickers were not significantly positively correlated with anxiety (SE = 0.188, P &gt; 0.05), and anxiety levels were not significantly negatively correlated with student performance (SE = −0.306, P &gt; 0.05). Mediation effect tests revealed that anxiety levels fully mediated the relationship between the use of clickers and student performance. Comparing student performance and anxiety levels across the five classes, the relationship between anxiety levels and student performance did not show a simple positive or negative correlation but followed a fluctuating curve, with an interval of anxiety levels that promotes student performance.DiscussionIn a blended learning environment, different designs and frequencies of active learning activities can lead to varying levels of anxiety, which in turn affect student performance. One prominent factor in increasing student anxiety is cold calling. The findings can serve as a basis for teachers to design educational plans, helping to create classroom environments that foster active participation and maintain a positive state among students. Furthermore, in this instructional environment, it is worth further investigating the factors influencing student anxiety and the impact of anxiety on student academic performance.

Published: June 2024

IntroductionLipodystrophy syndromes are rare diseases that can present with a broad range of symptoms. Delays in diagnosis are common, which in turn, may predispose to the development of severe metabolic complications and end-organ damage. Many patients with lipodystrophy syndromes are only diagnosed after significant metabolic abnormalities arise. Prompt action by clinical teams may improve disease outcomes in lipodystrophy syndromes. The aim of the Rapid Action Plan is to serve as a set of recommendations from experts that can support clinicians with limited experience in lipodystrophy syndromes.MethodsThe Rapid Action Plan was developed using insights gathered through a series of advisory meetings with clinical experts in lipodystrophy syndromes. A skeleton template was used to facilitate interviews. A consensus document was developed, reviewed, and approved by all experts.ResultsLipodystrophy is a clinical diagnosis. The Rapid Action Plan discusses tools that can help diagnose lipodystrophy syndromes. The roles of clinical and family history, physical exam, patient and family member photos, routine blood tests, leptin levels, skinfold measurements, imaging studies, and genetic testing are explored. Additional topics such as communicating the diagnosis to the patients/families and patient referrals are covered. A set of recommendations regarding screening and monitoring for metabolic diseases and end-organ abnormalities is presented. Finally, the treatment of lipodystrophy syndromes is reviewed.DiscussionThe Rapid Action Plan may assist clinical teams with the prompt diagnosis and holistic work-up and management of patients with lipodystrophy syndromes, which may improve outcomes for patients with this rare disease.

Published: June 2024

BackgroundGlucagon-like peptide-1 receptor-agonists (GLP-1ra), such as semaglutide, have emerged as promising treatments, demonstrating sustained weight reduction and metabolic benefits. This study aims to assess the impact of oral and subcutaneous semaglutide on body composition and metabolic parameters in patients with T2DM and obesity.MethodsA 24-week quasi-experimental retrospective study including adults with T2DM and obesity (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m²) who were treated with either daily-oral or weekly-subcutaneous semaglutide. Body composition was measured using bioelectrical impedance analysis, evaluating fat mass, fat-free mass, total body water, skeletal muscle mass, and whole-body phase angle. Analytical parameters included lipid profile and glycaemic control. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS v.26.ResultsParticipants (n=88) experienced significant weight loss after treatment with semaglutide (9.5% in subcutaneous, 9.4% in oral, P&lt;0.001). Weight reduction primarily resulted from fat mass reduction without substantial lean mass compromise. Visceral fat area decreased, whiles phase-angle remained stable. Improvements in lipid profiles and glycaemic control were observed, with a decrease in both HbA1c and insulin requirements. Multivariate analysis demonstrated comparable impacts of oral and subcutaneous semaglutide on body composition.ConclusionSemaglutide, administered orally or subcutaneously, demonstrated positive effects on body composition, metabolic and glycaemic control in patients with T2DM and obesity. This real-world study highlights the potential of bioelectrical impedance analysis in assessing antidiabetic drugs’ impact on body composition, providing valuable insights for future research and clinical applications.
Integrating non-renewable energy consumption, geopolitical risks, economic development with the ecological intensity of wellbeing: evidence from quantile regression analysis

Published: June 2024

Introduction: This study delves into the intricate relationship between non-renewable energy sources, economic advancement, and the ecological footprint of well-being in Pakistan, spanning the years from 1980 to 2021.Methods: Employing the quantile regression model, we analyzed the co-integrating dynamics among the variables under scrutiny. Non-renewable energy sources were dissected into four distinct components—namely, gas, electricity, and oil consumption—facilitating a granular examination of their impacts.Results and discussion: Our empirical investigations reveal that coal, gas, and electricity consumption exhibit a negative correlation with the ecological footprint of well-being. Conversely, coal consumption and overall energy consumption show a positive association with the ecological footprint of well-being. Additionally, the study underscores the detrimental impact of geopolitical risks on the ecological footprint of well-being. Our findings align with the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis, positing that environmental degradation initially surges with economic development, subsequently declining as a nation progresses economically. Consequently, our research advocates for Pakistan’s imperative to prioritize the adoption of renewable energy sources as it traverses its developmental trajectory. This strategic pivot towards renewables, encompassing hydroelectric, wind, and solar energy, not only seeks to curtail environmental degradation but also endeavors to foster a cleaner and safer ecological milieu.
