Comparison of endothelial cell loss in Viscoless phacoemulsification versus soft shell technique of phacoemulsification: A retrospective study
Authors: Mulchandani Ankita Vijay , Desai Abhijeet Umesh , Kaur Gurmanik , Modi Rohit 
Published: March 2024

Objectives:
The purpose of this study was to compare the consequences of soft shell and viscoless technique on corneal endothelial cells (CECs) in cataract patients after phacoemulsification.

Materials and Methods:
This is a retrospective study. A total of 206 eyes of 139 patients (75 males and 64 females) who underwent phacoemulsification surgery during the period from September 2019 to December 2019 were enrolled in the study. The patients who underwent phacoemulsification were divided into two groups depending on the type of surgery performed, that is, viscoless or soft shell technique. The pre-operative and post-operative records were compared. The primary outcome measure was endothelial cell count (ECC) measured at baseline and postoperatively. The differences between the two groups were analysed statistically. The study was done at Sohum Eye Care Centre, Mumbai, India.

Results:
No statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of age, gender, diabetic status and cumulative dissipated energy (CDE), as P > 0.05. The inter-group mean difference between CDE did not differ significantly (P = 0.0626 and 0.1075, for 1 and 3 months inter-group comparison) between the two groups. However, a statistically significant mean difference of 99.9516 cells/mm2 (P < 0.0001), 116.4146 cells/mm2 (P = 0.0031) after one month and 90.4468 cells/mm2 (P = 0.0051), 145.2895 cells/mm2 (P < 0.0001) 3 months of surgery, between pre- and post-operative ECC, was observed in group 1 and group 2, respectively. The values of Pearson’s correlation (r = −0.3 to +0.3) suggested a very weak and non-significant strength of association of endothelial cell loss with age, gender, diabetic status and CDE postoperatively. Intergroup post-operative endothelial cell loss did not show any significant difference after 1 (P = 0.0644) and three months (P = 0.052) of phacoemulsification.

Conclusions:
Viscoless phacoemulsification surgery may be recommended in appropriate patients to avoid the side effects of ophthalmic viscosurgical devices.

1784 BAHRİYE DÜZENLEMESİ VE OSMANLI DONANMASINDA ERKEN NİZÂM-I CEDİD
Authors: DEPE Enes 
Published: March 2024

1770 yılında Çeşme’de ağır kayıplara uğrayan Osmanlı donanması, takip eden yıllarda ciddi bir güvenlik sorunu ile karşı karşıya kalmıştır. 1770’li yıllar boyunca bu kayıpların telafisine çalışılırken, 1780’li yıllarda donanma ile ilgili girişimler farklı bir boyuta ulaşmıştır. Amerikan Bağımsızlık Savaşı ile Batı dünyası hızlı bir silahlanma yarışına girerken, Akdeniz’de de suların ısınmaya başlaması Osmanlı yetkililerini ilave tedbirler almaya yöneltmiştir. 1783 yılında Kırım’ın Rusya tarafından ilhakı ile güvenlik zafiyeti büyüyen Osmanlılar için, sefere hazır deniz gücünün arttırılması ve hızla gerekli yerlere intikali yönünde bazı çalışmaların yapılması gerekmiştir.
Halil Hamid Paşa’nın sadrazamlığı dönemine denk gelen 1783-1785 yılları arasında gerçekleştirilen savaş hazırlıkları kapsamında, donanmada da bazı tedbirlerin alınması gündeme gelmiştir. Rusya’nın artan deniz gücü ve Osmanlılara yönelik tehdidi, 1784 yılında yürürlüğe giren bir düzenlemeyle önlenmeye çalışılmıştır. Bahriye için erken nizâm-ı cedid olarak adlandırılabilecek bu düzenlemenin temeli, sistematik olarak daha fazla gemiyi sefere hazır halde tutabilmeye dayanmaktadır. Önceki yıllara kıyasla daha masraflı bir donanma anlamına gelen bu teşebbüs, 1785 yılından itibaren uygulamaya konulmuştur. 1787’de başlayan Rus Harbi’nden önce donanmanın sefer kapasitesinin arttırılmasına yönelik tedbirler, savaş yıllarında ve sonrasında donanmaya yapılan yatırımların desteklenmesinin de önünü açmıştır. Bu araştırma, 1790’lı yıllarda da geliştirilerek devam edecek olan donanmadaki nizâm-ı cedid teşebbüslerinden, 1784 yılında yapılan düzenlemenin detaylarına odaklanmıştır.

Authors: Balyemez Uğurcan , Erşen Mehmet , Süer Hüseyin Kaya 
Published: March 2024

Objective: Subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue have distinct physiological roles. The correlation between the amount of visceral tissue and the immunity response following vaccination remains unclear, despite its known effects on immunity. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibody levels after vaccination and body fat tissue values measured using a specialized software on specific magnetic resonance imaging sequences.
Methods: After ethics committee approval, prospectively 60 volunteers (27 males, 33 females; median age of 33 years) were vaccinated with inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine and tested for IgG levels. Abdominal MRI was performed to measure subcutaneous and visceral fat tissue areas using a semiautomatic application.
Results: The median value of IgG antibody titers after vaccination was 1039 (113 – 6613). Median subcutaneous adipose tissue(cm2), visceral adipose tissue (cm2), SAT index (SATI) (cm2/m2), VAT index (VATI) (cm2/m2), total fat area (TFA) (cm2), and SAT/VAT (cm2) were 178.5 (38.1-552.5), 51.5 (7.1-273.2), 61.4 (14.3-213.1), 19.1 (2.7-90.6), 251.3 (45.3-683.2), and 3.3 (0.4-12.3) respectively. There was no significant
correlation between the adipose tissue measurements and antibody titers (p>.05).
Conclusion: This study demonstrated that automated software can efficiently and accurately evaluate body fat distribution using MRI. However, the results showed no significant association between fat distribution and the immunization response to the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine.

PurposeThis study aimed to investigate the composition of ocular surface microbiota in patients with obesity.MethodsThis case-control study, spanning from November 2020 to March 2021 at Henan Provincial People’s Hospital, involved 35 patients with obesity and an equivalent number of age and gender-matched healthy controls. By employing 16S rRNA sequencing, this study analyzed the differences in ocular surface microbiota between the two groups. The functional prediction analysis of the ocular surface microbiota was conducted using PICRUSt2.ResultsThe alpha diversity showed no notable differences in the richness or evenness of the ocular surface microbiota when comparing patients with obesity to healthy controls (Shannon index, P=0.1003). However, beta diversity highlighted significant variances in the microbiota composition of these two groups (ANOSIM, P=0.005). LEfSe analysis revealed that the relative abundances of Delftia, Cutibacterium, Aquabacterium, Acidovorax, Caulobacteraceae unclassified, Comamonas and Porphyromonas in patients with obesity were significantly increased (P&lt;0.05). Predictive analysis using PICRUSt2 highlighted a significant enhancement in certain metabolic pathways in patients with obesity, notably xenobiotics metabolism via cytochrome P450 (CYP450), lipid metabolism, and the oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptor signaling pathway (P&lt;0.05).ConclusionsPatients with obesity exhibit a distinct ocular surface core microbiome. The observed variations in this microbiome may correlate with increased activity in CYP450, changes in lipid metabolism, and alterations in NOD-like receptor signaling pathways.
You better listen to yourself: studying metacognitive efficiency in emotion recognition by voice
Authors: Sinvani Rachel-Tzofia , Fogel-Grinvald Haya 
Published: March 2024

PurposeMetacognition, or the ability to monitor the performance of oneself, is known for its fundamental importance for human behavior adjustments. However, studies of metacognition in social behaviors focused on emotion recognition are relatively scarce. In the current study, we aimed to examine the effectiveness of metacognition, measured by self-rated confidence in voice emotion recognition tasks within healthy individuals.MethodsWe collected 180 audio-recorded lexical sentences portraying discrete emotions: anger, happiness, sadness, fear, surprise, and neutrality expressions. Upon listening to voice stimuli, participants (N = 100; 50 females, 50 males) completed the perception task of recognition of emotion. After each trial, a confidence rating (CR) was assigned.ResultsA series of one-tailed t-tests showed that the differences in mean CRs assigned to correct and incorrect performances were significant for all emotions and neutral expression.ConclusionsOur preliminary results demonstrate efficiency in metacognition of emotion recognition by voice. Theoretically, our results support the difference between accuracy in metacognition, measured by CR, and efficiency in metacognition, as it specified the CR between correct and incorrect performance. To gain better insights into practical issues, further studies are needed to examine whether and what are the differences between accuracy and efficiency in metacognition, as part of social communication.

Background/IntroductionAdipose tissue (AT) has been highlighted as a promising reservoir of infection for viruses, bacteria and parasites. Among them is Trypanosoma cruzi, which causes Chagas disease. The recommended treatment for the disease in Brazil is Benznidazole (BZ). However, its efficacy may vary according to the stage of the disease, geographical origin, age, immune background of the host and sensitivity of the strains to the drug. In this context, AT may act as an ally for the parasite survival and persistence in the host and a barrier for BZ action. Therefore, we investigated the immunomodulation of T. cruzi-infected human AT in the presence of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) where BZ treatment was added.MethodsWe performed indirect cultivation between T. cruzi-infected adipocytes, PBMC and the addition of BZ. After 72h of treatment, the supernatant was collected for cytokine, chemokine and adipokine assay. Infected adipocytes were removed to quantify T. cruzi DNA, and PBMC were removed for immunophenotyping.ResultsOur findings showed elevated secretion of interleukin (IL)-6, IL-2 and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1/CCL2) in the AT+PBMC condition compared to the other controls. In contrast, there was a decrease in tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and IL-8/CXCL-8 in the groups with AT. We also found high adipsin secretion in PBMC+AT+T compared to the treated condition (PBMC+AT+T+BZ). Likewise, the expression of CD80+ and HLA-DR+ in CD14+ cells decreased in the presence of T. cruzi.DiscussionThus, our findings indicate that AT promotes up-regulation of inflammatory products such as IL-6, IL-2, and MCP-1/CCL2. However, adipogenic inducers may have triggered the downregulation of TNF and IL-8/CXCL8 through the peroxisome proliferator agonist gamma (PPAR-g) or receptor expression. On the other hand, the administration of BZ only managed to reduce inflammation in the microenvironment by decreasing adipsin in the infected culture conditions. Therefore, given the findings, we can see that AT is an ally of the parasite in evading the host‘s immune response and the pharmacological action of BZ.

Published: March 2024

BackgroundDespite early attempts, the relationship between immune characteristics and gastrointestinal tract cancers remains incompletely elucidated. Hence, rigorous and further investigations in this domain hold significant clinical relevance for the development of novel potential immunotherapeutic targets.MethodsWe conducted a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis using the tools available in the “TwoSampleMR” R package. The GWAS data for these 731 immune traits were sourced from the GWAS Catalog database. Concurrently, data on gastrointestinal tract cancers, encompassing malignant tumors in the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, colon, and rectum, were extracted from the FinnGen database. The immune traits subjected to MR analysis predominantly fall into four categories: median fluorescence intensities (MFI), relative cell (RC), absolute cell (AC), and morphological parameters (MP). To ensure the reliability of our findings, sensitivity analyses were implemented to address robustness, account for heterogeneity, and alleviate the impact of horizontal pleiotropy.ResultsA total of 78 immune traits causally linked to gastrointestinal tract cancers were identified, encompassing esophageal cancer (12 traits), gastric cancer (13 traits), small intestine cancer (22 traits), colon cancer (12 traits), and rectal cancer (19 traits). Additionally, 60 immune traits were recognized as protective factors associated with gastrointestinal tract cancers, distributed across esophageal cancer (14 traits), gastric cancer (16 traits), small intestine cancer (7 traits), colon cancer (14 traits), and rectal cancer (9 traits). Furthermore, it was observed that seven immune traits are causally related to gastrointestinal tract cancers in at least two locations. These traits include “CCR2 on CD14- CD16+ monocyte,” “CD19 on IgD+ CD38-,” “CD19 on IgD+ CD38- naive,” “CD25hi CD45RA+ CD4 not Treg AC,” “CD27 on unsw mem,” “CD28 on CD39+ activated Treg,” and “CD45 on CD4+.”ConclusionThis study elucidates a causal link between immune cells and gastrointestinal tract cancers at various sites through genetic investigation. The findings of this research open up new perspectives and resources for exploring tumor prevention strategies and immunotherapeutic targets.
SGLFormer: Spiking Global-Local-Fusion Transformer with high performance

Published: March 2024

IntroductionSpiking Neural Networks (SNNs), inspired by brain science, offer low energy consumption and high biological plausibility with their event-driven nature. However, the current SNNs are still suffering from insufficient performance.MethodsRecognizing the brain's adeptness at information processing for various scenarios with complex neuronal connections within and across regions, as well as specialized neuronal architectures for specific functions, we propose a Spiking Global-Local-Fusion Transformer (SGLFormer), that significantly improves the performance of SNNs. This novel architecture enables efficient information processing on both global and local scales, by integrating transformer and convolution structures in SNNs. In addition, we uncover the problem of inaccurate gradient backpropagation caused by Maxpooling in SNNs and address it by developing a new Maxpooling module. Furthermore, we adopt spatio-temporal block (STB) in the classification head instead of global average pooling, facilitating the aggregation of spatial and temporal features.ResultsSGLFormer demonstrates its superior performance on static datasets such as CIFAR10/CIFAR100, and ImageNet, as well as dynamic vision sensor (DVS) datasets including CIFAR10-DVS and DVS128-Gesture. Notably, on ImageNet, SGLFormer achieves a top-1 accuracy of 83.73% with 64 M parameters, outperforming the current SOTA directly trained SNNs by a margin of 6.66%.DiscussionWith its high performance, SGLFormer can support more computer vision tasks in the future. The codes for this study can be found in https://github.com/ZhangHanN1/SGLFormer.
Differential contributions of body form, motion, and temporal information to subjective action understanding in naturalistic stimuli
Authors: Smekal Vojtěch , Poyo Solanas Marta , Fraats Evelyne I. C. , de Gelder Beatrice 
Published: March 2024

IntroductionWe investigated the factors underlying naturalistic action recognition and understanding, as well as the errors occurring during recognition failures.MethodsParticipants saw full-light stimuli of ten different whole-body actions presented in three different conditions: as normal videos, as videos with the temporal order of the frames scrambled, and as single static representative frames. After each stimulus presentation participants completed one of two tasks—a forced choice task where they were given the ten potential action labels as options, or a free description task, where they could describe the action performed in each stimulus in their own words.ResultsWhile generally, a combination of form, motion, and temporal information led to the highest action understanding, for some actions form information was sufficient and adding motion and temporal information did not increase recognition accuracy. We also analyzed errors in action recognition and found primarily two different types.DiscussionOne type of error was on the semantic level, while the other consisted of reverting to the kinematic level of body part processing without any attribution of semantics. We elaborate on these results in the context of naturalistic action perception.
