Introduction
Viral meningitis, often caused by enteroviruses in children, is prevalent globally but is difficult to distinguish from bacterial forms. Molecular testing like PCR is vital; however. This study investigates the characteristics of viral meningitis in pediatric patients during an outbreak in Sulaymaniyah Governorate, Iraq.
Methods
This is a multicentered prospective study that included children with a confirmed diagnosis of viral meningitis who have visited pediatric clinics throughout Sulaimani, Halabja, Kalar, and Ranya cities during the period from May 2023 to June 2023.
Results
In total, 116 cases were included, of whom 75 (64.7%) were male and had a mean age of 6.5 ± 3.2. Most were between the ages of 4-6 (38, 32.8%) and 7-12 years (55, 47.4%). Only 53.4% had contact with another patient. Common symptoms included fever (63.8%) and headache (62.1%). Lymphocyte predominance was observed in 46.6% of CSF samples. Upon molecular diagnosis, the inflammation in all of the cases was due to enterovirus infection. Most of the patients (75%) received empirical antibiotics. The average hospital stay was 10 days. While 95.7% of patients had no complications during recovery, a few experienced issues like weakness and malaise. All had good clinical outcomes.
Conclusion
The viral meningitis outbreak in Sulaymaniyah Governorate is caused by enterovirus, with epidemiological, clinical, and laboratory findings similar to that of the literature. The condition has resulted in a high prescription rate of empirical antibiotics due to late diagnosis.

Authors: Calderón Vinueza Carlos , Colcha Guashpa Freddy Orlando 
Published: May 2024

El diagnóstico de fallas mecánicas mediante un transductor de presión de cilindros utilizado en motores de combustión interna, se utilizó un osciloscopio Picoscope 2204A y un transductor construido con un sensor de presión P265 de 300PSI, con esta instrumentación en el vehículo Chevrolet Optra 1.8 cc del 2006, realizado en la ciudad de Esmeraldas – Ecuador, que se encuentra a 25msnm. Con la ejecución de estas pruebas se obtuvo oscilogramas para dos autos de similares características, lo cual permitió realizar el contraste de los resultados entre vehículos y las curvas establecidas en “Automotive Oscilloscopes Waveform Analysis”, mediante el cual permite dar un diagnóstico visual de fallas en función del análisis del oscilograma, teniendo en cuenta el pico máximo, simetría en el ángulo de la torre, concavidades de vacío correctas, ángulos de apertura y cierre de las válvulas. Para realizar las pruebas es importante, que el vehículo alcance la temperatura normal de funcionamiento, desconectar el inyector y aterrizar la bujía a tierra del cilindro que está en prueba. Esta prueba es una técnica avanzada de diagnóstico, conocida por pocos técnicos automotrices, pero facilita en gran medida el diagnóstico asertivo de fallas, minimizando gastos innecesarios por diagnósticos errados, e incrementar la satisfacción del cliente. Por lo que se recomienda socializar el uso de los equipos de diagnóstico y los resultados de la investigación a técnicos de talleres automotrices de la localidad, para que puedan implementar este método de análisis y diagnóstico en los motores de combustión.
Trichoscopy in Clinical Studies: The Challenges of Standardization - A Scoping Review
Authors: Dias Amanda Conoratto , Mossmann João Batista 
Published: May 2024

Introduction: Standardization of trichoscopy images, regarding the compatibility of before and after images poses a challenge. The aim of this study was to investigate the methodologies used by researchers in clinical studies in the field of trichoscopy.
Methodology: The keywords 'trichoscopy' and 'hair' were searched in the Scopus, Web of Science and Embase databases. Studies published from 2019 to December 2023 were included.
Results and Conclusion: Among the 4,088 studies found, 341 were duplicates, 3,742 did not meet the objectives of this review; thus, 5 studies were selected and 4 were subjected to appraisal of this scope. According to the review, the compatibility of trichoscopy images in clinical studies depends on the techniques developed by researchers, which are few in number, yet innovative. The TrichoLAB software appears to be a promising tool, yet it requires a high investment, which makes it difficult for researchers to access. The standardized grid by Starace et al. (2019, 2020 and 2021) and Alessandrini et al. (2021) needs to be further explored and explained so that other researchers can benefit from the use of this model. It is also suggested to apply tests based on the FMaps concept by Kasprzak et al (2019) to prove the efficacy of the grid. Given that the challenge of compatibility of before and after trichoscopy images is a real issue, it's suggested that other standardization models be developed. Likewise, it is possible that some studies were not included in this review; therefore, the continuation of this research is suggested.
Orbicularis oculi muscle activity during computer reading under different degrees of artificially-induced aniseikonia
Authors: Redondo Beatriz , Vera Jesus , Molina Rubén , Molina-Molina Alejandro , Jiménez Raimundo 
Published: May 2024

Background
Aniseikonia is a binocular vision disorder that has been associated with asthenopic symptoms. However, asthenopia has been evaluated with subjective tests that make difficult to determine the level of aniseikonia. This study aims to objectively evaluate the impact of induced aniseikonia at different levels on visual fatigue by measuring the orbicularis oculi muscle activity in the dominant and non-dominant eyes while performing a reading task.

Methods
Twenty-four collegiate students (24.00 ± 3.86 years) participated in this study. Participants read a passage for 7 minutes under four degrees of aniseikonia (0%, 3%, 5% and 10%) at 50 cm. Orbicularis oculi muscle activity of the dominant and non-dominant eye was recorded by surface electromyography. In addition, visual discomfort was assessed after each task by completing a questionnaire.

Results
Orbicularis oculi muscle activity increased under induced aniseikonia (i.e., greater values for the 10% condition in comparison to 0%, and 3% conditions (p = 0.034 and p = 0.023, respectively)). No statistically significant differences were observed in orbicularis oculi muscle activity for the time on task and between the dominant and non-dominant eyes. Additionally, higher levels of subjective visual discomfort were observed for lower degrees of induced aniseikonia.

Conclusion
Induced aniseikonia increases visual fatigue at high aniseikonia degrees as measured by the orbicularis oculi muscle activity, and at low degrees as measured with subjective questionnaires. These findings may be of relevance to better understand the visual symptomatology of aniseikonia.
Occurrence patterns of sympatric forest wallabies: assessing the influence of structural habitat attributes on the coexistence of Thylogale thetis and T. stigmatica
Authors: Smith Lucy E.V. , Andrew Nigel R. , Vernes Karl 
Published: May 2024

Background
We studied the occurrence of two sympatric wallabies, the red-necked pademelon (Thylogale thetis) and the red-legged pademelon (T. stigmatica) in northeastern New South Wales, Australia in relation to structural habitat attributes. At our study site, both species inhabit closed forest environments and have overlapping distributions, but T. thetis leaves the forest at night to graze adjacent grassy forest edges whereas T. stigmatica remains within the forest and browses forest vegetation. The objectives of the study were to investigate how structural attributes of two forest types, wet sclerophyll forest and rainforest, relate to the fine-scale occurrence of these two wallaby species within the forested environment.

Methods
We gathered occurrence data from 48 camera trap stations divided equally between rainforest and wet sclerophyll forest. At each camera point, we also measured a range of structural habitat attributes to determine habitat affiliations for the two Thylogale species. Principal component analyses were used to describe major trends in habitat, and generalised linear models were used to describe the efficacy of the variables in predicting habitat occurrence of each species.

Results
The number of occurrences of Thylogale thetis was significantly greater than occurrences of T. stigmatica, which was driven by significantly greater occurrences of T. thetis in wet sclerophyll forest. There was both spatial and temporal partitioning between the two species; there was a significant difference in the occurrences of the two species at individual cameras and T. stigmatica had a different activity schedule than T. thetis in wet sclerophyll forest, where the latter reached its greatest rate of occurrence. At a finer (camera station) scale, occurrences of T. thetis increased with proximity to roads and grassy edges and at sites that were less rocky and less steep. T. stigmatica occurrence increased in the presence of rainforest elements like vines, palms and ferns, more ground-level cover and tree-fall gaps and at sites with fewer emergent eucalypts.

Conclusion
Our findings have implications for managing these pademelons and their habitats. T. thetis is a common species that was encountered more often than T. stigmatica, and it responded positively to human disturbance like roadsides and grassy edges, presumably because these areas provided good grazing opportunities. By comparison, T. stigmatica is a threatened species, and it responded to natural disturbance like tree-fall gaps where lateral cover was greater, and where rainforest food plants may be more abundant. Our results suggest, therefore, that conservation of the threatened T. stigmatica requires the preservation of intact rainforest.

Production and Titration of Lentiviral Vectors
Authors: Barde Isabelle , Salmon Patrick , Trono Didier 
Published: October 2010

AbstractLentiviral vectors have emerged over the last decade as powerful, reliable, and safe tools for stable gene transfer in a wide variety of mammalian cells. Unlike other vectors derived from oncoretroviruses, they allow for stable gene delivery into most nondividing primary cells, including neurons. This is why lentivectors (LVs) are becoming the most useful and promising tools in the field of neuroscience, not only for research, but also for future gene and cell therapy approaches. LVs derived from HIV‐1 have gradually evolved to display many desirable features aimed at increasing both their safety and their versatility. These latest designs are reviewed in this unit. This unit also describes protocols for production and titration of LVs that can be implemented in a research laboratory setting, with an emphasis on standardization to improve transposability of results between laboratories.

Published: October 2010

AbstractMulti‐photon microscopy, now in its twentieth year, has developed into one of the most robust and powerful techniques for live cell and in vivo fluorescence imaging. Although its theoretical framework is nearly a century old, it has only become a practical tool for biological research with the development of ultrafast lasers and scanning microscopy techniques. In this unit, we outline the basic principles of multi‐photon microscopy, paying special attention to technical considerations for biological applications. Furthermore, we discuss some common applications of the technique, mainly in the field of live cell and in vivo imaging. We illustrate how multi‐photon microscopy can be utilized to address questions ranging from structural cell changes to trafficking of membrane proteins in living organisms, often with resolutions of hundreds of milliseconds. We conclude by outlining the necessary elements needed to establish a successful two‐photon microscopy system. Curr. Protoc. Cytom. 54:2.9.1‐2.9.12. © 2010 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
Phenotypic Analysis Using Very Small Volumes of Blood
Authors: Weaver James L. , McKinnon Katherine , Germolec Dori R. 
Published: October 2010

AbstractAnalysis of cell‐surface phenotype of peripheral blood leukocytes is one of the most common applications of flow cytometry. In mouse research, the small size of the animal limits the amount of blood available. Standard staining methods using lysis of erythrocytes or gradient separation followed by repeated washing involve unavoidable losses of cells that generally limit analysis of blood to terminal methods. Time‐course studies, therefore, require sacrifice of groups of mice at each time point. Thus, a method is needed that can be used with much smaller volumes of blood. This will allow serial sampling of the same animal over time, decreasing experimental variability and reducing animal use. The method described here is a no‐lyse, no‐wash method that uses triggering on a fluorescence parameter. The method allows routine analysis of the phenotype of peripheral blood leukocytes using whole‐blood volumes of 20 µl per tube. The data are comparable with values from traditional methods requiring much higher volumes of blood. Due to interference by erythrocytes, light‐scatter parameters are not usable with this method. This method has been used for time‐course studies of peripheral blood populations in mice lasting as long as four weeks. Curr. Protoc. Cytom. 54:6.30.1‐6.30.8. © 2010 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
From Image to Data Using Common Image‐Processing Techniques
Authors: Sysko Laura R. , Davis Michael A. 
Published: October 2010

AbstractA digital microscopy image is an array of number values, which with adequate contrast can be interpreted as spatial information. Through processing and analysis by mathematical means, using computer‐assisted imaging software programs, raw image data contrast can be enhanced to improve the extraction of image features for measurement and analysis. This mathematical feature extraction (referred to as segmentation) provides the basis for general image processing. The methods discussed in this unit address common image analysis challenges such as object counting with touching objects, objects within other objects, and object identification in a field with uneven illumination or uneven brightness, along with step‐by‐step procedures for achieving these results.

Density and microhabitat use of Bengal slow loris in primary forest and non‐native plantation forest
Authors: Pliosungnoen Manoon , Gale George , Savini Tommaso 
Published: October 2010

AbstractThe extent of planted forests has greatly increased in the tropics, but their conservation value while assumed to be low, is largely unknown. We compared the density and microhabitat selection of a nocturnal arboreal primate, the Bengal slow loris (Nycticebus bengalensis), in mostly undisturbed, evergreen tropical forest to those in 15–18 year old Acacia/Leucaena plantations with significant secondary regrowth, and <15 year old plantations with little regrowth. Based on estimates derived from distance sampling, loris densities in older plantations were nearly identical to primary forest (4.26 vs. 4.00 lorises per square kilometer), although encounter rates were three times higher in the older plantations probably owing to the lower detection probability in the more complex vegetation of the primary forest. The mean density estimate for the younger plantation was one‐third of the above habitats (1.27 lorises per square kilometer), although not statistically different. Lorises tended to use larger diameter and taller trees, with a greater crown depth than randomly sampled trees, and tended to avoid habitats with sparsely crowned trees. The older plantations had trees with lower basal area and shorter stems than the primary forest; however, the older plantations contained higher densities of Bauhinia lianas, a commonly eaten food source and did not contain the red giant flying squirrel (Petaurista petaurista), a potential competitor. Although it is unknown whether the Bengal slow loris would persist without the presence of primary forest in the landscape, we suggest that older plantations have conservation value for at least selected species and as such, could be better managed to increase this value.

Characterization of opsin gene alleles affecting color vision in a wild population of titi monkeys (Callicebus brunneus)
Authors: Bunce John A. , Isbell Lynne A. , Neitz Maureen , Bonci Daniela , Surridge Alison K. , Jacobs Gerald H. , Smith David Glenn 
Published: October 2010

AbstractThe color vision of most platyrrhine primates is determined by alleles at the polymorphic X‐linked locus coding for the opsin responsible for the middle‐ to long‐wavelength (M/L) cone photopigment. Females who are heterozygous at the locus have trichromatic vision, whereas homozygous females and all males are dichromatic. This study characterized the opsin alleles in a wild population of the socially monogamous platyrrhine monkey Callicebus brunneus (the brown titi monkey), a primate that an earlier study suggests may possess an unusual number of alleles at this locus and thus may be a subject of special interest in the study of primate color vision. Direct sequencing of regions of the M/L opsin gene using feces‐, blood‐, and saliva‐derived DNA obtained from 14 individuals yielded evidence for the presence of three functionally distinct alleles, corresponding to the most common M/L photopigment variants inferred from a physiological study of cone spectral sensitivity in captive Callicebus.

Diet and ranging behavior of the endangered Javan gibbon (Hylobates moloch) in a submontane tropical rainforest
Authors: Kim Sanha , Lappan Susan , Choe Jae C. 
Published: October 2010

AbstractAltitude influences forest structure and food abundance and distribution, which in turn affect primate feeding and ranging patterns. Javan gibbons (Hylobates moloch) are endemic to forests spanning a broad range of altitudes on Java, Indonesia. Most information about Javan gibbon behavior comes from studies in lowland forests, while the vast majority of wild gibbons remaining inhabit hill and lower montane forests. We studied the diets, activity patterns, and ranging behavior of three gibbon groups in hill/lower montane (950–1,100 m asl) forest in the Gunung Halimun‐Salak National Park (GHSNP) from April 2008 to March 2009. The mean home range size was 37 ha and the mean daily path length was 1,180 m. The study groups spent 36% of time feeding, 41% resting, 15% traveling, 6% engaging in social behavior, and 2% in aggressive interactions. Fruit was the most important food (63% of feeding time) followed by leaves (24%), and flowers (12%). Our results suggest that Javan gibbons in higher elevation habitats have substantially larger home ranges than lowland populations, despite broad similarity in their activity budgets and diets. Conservation managers should consider the effects of altitude and habitat quality on gibbon ranging behavior when developing habitat corridors, selecting sites for translocation or reintroduction projects, and designating and managing protected areas.

Uniaxial strain in graphene and armchair graphene nanoribbons: An ab initio study
Authors: Rosenkranz N. , Mohr M. , Thomsen C. 
Published: October 2010

AbstractWe report first‐principles studies on the electronic and vibrational properties of uniaxially strained graphene and graphene nanoribbons. The band structure of extended graphene shows an interesting behavior under uniaxial strain in directions other than the zigzag or armchair direction. While strained graphene remains semi‐metallic, one‐dimensional graphene nanoribbons allow band‐gap tuning via strain. The shift of the strain‐induced band‐gap in armachair nanoribbons depends on their family. At small strain the band‐gap of all AGNRs depends linearly on the amount of strain. Concerning the vibrational spectra, we compare strain‐induced shift rates of the G modes in two‐dimensional graphene and AGNRs. The shift rates of the G‐ and G+ modes in AGNRs strongly reflect the common classification into three families. For large ribbon widths all shift rates converge to their counterparts in graphene.
