Authors: Ivanov A. A. , Vasilyeva M. V. , Anisimova I. N. , Rakhmangulov R. S. 
Published: May 2024

The genus Paeonia L. includes both popular ornamental and medicinal plants with a rich history of cultivation and breeding. Breeding is an important process of increasing the diversity of the assortment and creating new cultivars of peonies with various economically important characteristics, such as the shape and color of flowers, different flowering periods and resistance to diseases and abiotic stressors. The main methods used in the breeding of peonies are traditional methods, including intraspecific, interspecific and intersectional hybridization, however, such factors as a long reproduction cycle and the complexity of the breeding process limit the possibilities for good progress in this work. The application of methods of biotechnology and molecular genetics make the breeding process more efficient. The use of germplasm resources and hybridization will accelerate the process of creating new cultivars not only with various decorative features, but also those with high adaptability to biotic and abiotic factors and resistance to phytopathogens and diseases. This review highlights the history of domestic and foreign breeding, modern trends and methodology of peony breeding. Information is provided on the achievements and limitations that exist in the field of molecular biological study of peonies.

В статті наведено результати порівняльного аналізу змін у функціональному стані кардіореспіраторної системи організму студенток 18-19 років закладу вищої освіти під впливом дистанційних секційних занять з різних видів фітнесу (ритмічної та естетичної гімнастики). Для реалізації мети дослідження було вивчено особливості функціонального стану серцево-судинної системи та системи зовнішнього дихання студенток двох груп на початку та наприкінці навчального року за допомогою традиційних методів та комп’ютерної програми експрес-оцінки функціонального стану «ШВСМ». Результаті дослідження дозволили констатувати у цілому позитивний вплив дистанційних секційних занять з обох видів фітнесу (ритмічної та естетичної гімнастики) на основні показники поточного стану кардіореспіраторної системи їхнього організму: незалежно від групової приналежності для усіх студенток к завершенню дослідження було характерне позитивне зниження частоти серцевих скорочень, нормотонічний тип реакції системи кровообігу на фізичні навантаження, нормалізація величин серцевого індексу, коефіцієнту економічності кровообігу, загального периферичного опору судин, підвищення потенційних можливостей системи зовнішнього дихання та стійкості організму до умов гіпоксії. Разом з цим слід зазначити, що використання в програмі дистанційних секційних занять з ритмічної гімнастики сприяло достовірно більш суттєвим, в порівнянні з програмою аналогічних занять з включенням засобів естетичної гімнастики, позитивним змінам більшості параметрів кардіореспіраторної системи організму. Доведено, що к завершенню дослідження для представниць групи з ритмічної гімнастики були характерні достовірно кращі величини ЧСС, пульсового артеріального тиску, систолічного об’єму крові, серцевого індексу, життевої ємності легень, часу затримки дихання на вдоху та індексу Скібінського. Більш того, серед студенток цієї групи спостерігалися більш високі, ніж у дівчат, які протягом навчального року займалися естетичної гімнастикою, позитивні темпи покращення частоти серцевих скорочень (в 8 разів), пульсового артеріального тиску, серцевого індексу, індексу Робінсона, коефіцієнту економічності кровообігу (в 1,5 рази), життєвої ємності легень (в 2 рази), часу затримки дихання на вдоху (в 3 рази), індексу Скібінського (в 8 разів) та індексу гіпоксії в 14 разів. Таким чином, результати проведеного дослідження свідчать про більш високу ефективність використання засобів ритмічної гімнастики в програмі дистанційних секційних занять для студенток закладу вищої освіти.

Published: May 2024

Introduction: Anemia is a potentially reversible condition in early chronic kidney disease (CKD) that requires timely intervention. General practitioners (GPs) play a crucial role in recognizing CKD. A new Nephrology Referral Form (NRF) was developed and tested in the Italian setting.
Methods: This mixed-methods survey, conducted between 2021 and 2022, introduced the NRF through focus group discussions involving a scientific committee. The NRF was tested in a 6-month trial involving 24 GPs each from Lazio and Puglia regions. GPs provided feedback on the use of the NRF in clinical practice through a questionnaire sent via Microsoft Form. The data were analyzed descriptively.
Results: After 6 months, 41.67% of the GPs were using the NRF at least once a week. Diabetes mellitus and hypertension were common triggers for NRF assessments. GPs overwhelmingly agreed (96%) on the NRF’s utility in identifying CKD cases, with 92% citing its effectiveness in diagnosing well-defined cases. The NRF facilitated specialist referrals, with 83% of GPs reporting increased referrals compared to the prior 6 months. Feedback underscored the NRF’s positive impact, suggesting improvements such as additional referral centers, regional/national networks, enhanced GP training, and increased collaboration.
Conclusion: GPs regularly used the NRF to identify and diagnose cases of CKD, streamlining the referral process and increasing referrals to specialists. Feedback emphasized the NRF’s positive impact and highlighted its potential as a valuable tool for enhancing early CKD detection, interventions, and fostering multidisciplinary management in primary care for better patient outcomes.

Authors: Suryawati Indah 
Published: May 2024

Matematika merupakan ilmu yang dipelajari mulai dari jenjang Sekolah Dasar sampai kejenjang selanjutnya, oleh karena itu penguasaan pelajaran matematika di Sekolah Dasar harus benar-benar mendapat perhatian khusus dari guru, sehingga tidak terjadi miskonsepsi pada jenjang seterusnya(Nabila, N, 2021). Salah satu tujuan pembelajaranÂ matematika yang dirumuskan dalam Kemendikbud 2013 yaitu siswa mampu memiliki kemampuan komunikasi matematis. Karena dengan kemampuan komunikasi matematis, siswa dapat menyampaikanÂ gagasannya baik secara lisan maupun tulisan, sehingga dalam proses pembelajaran dapat terbentuk pemahaman dengan baik. Tujuan penelitian ini yaitu untuk mengetahui apakah dengan menggunakan media origami dapat meningkatkan kemampuan komunikasi matematis siswa. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan Kuantitatif, sedangkan desain yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah Quasi Eksperiment Pretest-Postest Control Group Design. Sampel pada penelitian ini menggunakan tehnik random sampling karena VA merupakan kelas inti, maka yang menjadi sampel pada penelitian ini adalah kelas VB dan kelas VC, dimana kedua kelas tersebut memiliki kemampuan yang setara. Data pada penelitian diambil dengan cara memberikan soal pretes dan postes kemampuan komunikasi matematis tentang materi bangun ruang. Selanjutnya untuk mengetahui peningkatan kemampuan komunikasi matematis pada penelitian ini dilakukan dengan rumus uji t berpasangan. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa pada N-gain kemampuan komunikasi matematis siswaÂ memiliki nilai Sig. (2-tailed) = 0,004. Karena nilai Sig. (2-tailed) < taraf Signifikansi (Î± =0,05), sehingga Ha diterima dan dapat disimpulkan bahwa peningkatan kemampuan komunikasi matematis siswa yang diajarkan dengan menggunakan media origami lebih baik dari pada yang diajarkanÂ dengan model pembelajaran konvensional.
Genetic evidence strengthens the connection between gut microbiota and gingivitis: a two-sample Mendelian randomization study
Authors: Hang Zhou , Rouyi Chen , Sen Li 
Published: May 2024

IntroductionThe oral cavity and gut tract, being interconnected and rich in microbiota, may have a shared influence on gingivitis. However, the specific role of distinct gut microbiota taxa in gingivitis remains unexplored. Utilizing Mendelian Randomization (MR) as an ideal method for causal inference avoiding reverse causality and potential confounding factors, we conducted a comprehensive two-sample MR study to uncover the potential genetic causal impact of gut microbiota on gingivitis.MethodsInstrumental variables were chosen from single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) strongly associated with 418 gut microbiota taxa, involving 14,306 individuals. Gingivitis, with 4,120 cases and 195,395 controls, served as the outcome. Causal effects were assessed using random-effect inverse variance-weighted, weighted median, and MR-Egger methods. For replication and meta-analysis, gingivitis data from IEU OpenGWAS were employed. Sensitivity analyses included Cochran’s Q tests, funnel plots, leave-one-out analyses, and MR-Egger intercept tests. This study aimed to assess the genetic correlation between the genetically predicted gut microbiota and gingivitis using linkage disequilibrium score regression (LDSC).ResultsThree gut microbiota taxa (class Actinobacteria id.419, family Defluviitaleaceae id.1924, genus Defluviitaleaceae UCG011 id.11287) are predicted to causally contribute to an increased risk of gingivitis (P&lt; 0.05). Additionally, four gut microbiota taxa (class Actinobacteria id.419, genus Escherichia Shigella id.3504, genus Ruminococcaceae UCG002 id.11360) potentially exhibit inhibitory causal effects on the risk of gingivitis (P&lt; 0.05). No significant evidence of heterogeneity or pleiotropy is detected. Our findings indicate a suggestive genetic correlation between class Actinobacteria id.419, class Bacteroidia id.912, family Defluviitaleaceae id.1924, genus Escherichia Shigella id.3504 and gingivitis.ConclusionOur study establishes the genetic causal effect of 418 gut microbiota taxa on gingivitis, offering insights for clinical interventions targeting gingivitis. Subsequent research endeavors are essential to corroborate the findings of our present study.
Disinformation and health: fact-checking strategies of Spanish health public institutions through YouTube
Authors: Vázquez-Gestal Montse , Pérez-Seoane Jesús , Fernández-Souto Ana-Belén 
Published: May 2024

IntroductionThrough their social media, public institutions address fake news and tackle disinformation that affects both them and the general public. With the rise of online video platforms, the audiovisual format has made its way as a dynamic and engaging format that allows for the creation of narratives to counter distorted information. This circumstance is particularly noticeable in the healthcare sector, where most of the recent fact-checking activity is taking place.MethodologyThrough the analysis of the official YouTube channels of the health departments of all Spanish autonomous communities from 1 January 2021 to 31 December 2023, this paper explores the use of audiovisual fact-checking by Spanish regional governments, and it describes the nature of these videos and the strategies undertaken on that platform to tackle disinformation.ResultsDespite the expected territorial disparities, the research findings show that an increasing number of Spanish regional health authorities are using YouTube to fight disinformation. They also show that the videos posted on that platform provide a strong response to fake news, either as a preventive measure or in response to existing publications.DiscussionIn the current landscape of declining mass media, where audience dispersion leads a to (sometimes deliberate) fragmentation of discourse, we are confronted with the paradox of being a society with access to a vast amount of information, but not well-informed. Therefore, it is essential to have strong institutions that verify fake content through popular formats.

Published: May 2024

BackgroundChronic kidney disease (CKD) is a common complication among individuals with hypertension. We aimed to identify the prevalence of CKD and the sex and race disparities within the hypertensive population in the United States from 2001–2016.MethodsA total of 16,148 participants with hypertension were included, representing 561,909,480 individuals from the U.S. population between 2001 and 2016, as documented in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. The prevalence of albuminuria and CKD stage were assessed using survey-weighted general linear regression analysis. Heterogeneity in the CKD stage among the hypertensive population, stratified by sex and race, was identified through survey-weighted logistic regression analysis.ResultsOverall, the prevalence of albuminuria remained stable (p for trend = 0.3196), and changes in the CKD stage were minimal (p for trend &gt; 0.05) from 2001–2016. In the analysis of CKD stage heterogeneity by sex and race, the prevalence of CKD was higher among women than men and higher among individuals of other races combined than non-Hispanic Whites, but the differences were not statistically significant.ConclusionThe overall CKD stage within the hypertensive population plateaued between 2001 and 2016. Our findings highlight the importance of continuous monitoring and potential refinement of renoprotection strategies in individuals with hypertension to mitigate the persistent burden of CKD and address health disparities among different demographic groups.
