Background: The antioxidant micronutrients supplementation to mammalian species during stressful condition have gained great attention of nutritionists to alleviate stressful peri parturient factors, which negatively effect on productive and reproductive performances in subtropics. Methods: The antioxidant micronutrients given to mammalian species refer to minerals (copper, zinc and selenium) and vitamins (vitamins A, C and E). The balanced diet needs an adequate amount of antioxidant micronutrients during stressful conditions for mammalian species. Result: The antioxidant micronutrients are played pivotal roles for body functions especially during transitional period in ruminants. They are given to improve quality of feed, cell functions, carbohydrates, protein and metabolism. Changes in animals’ production, reproduction and therapeutic performances have been confirmed over antioxidant micronutrients supplementations. The antioxidant micronutrients change feed intake, nutrient digestibility, rumen fermentation and energy production. Such increases in feed digestibility and growth performance resulted in improvement of oocyte, embryo and fetus qualities. In addition, blood cells and plasma biochemistry, immunity and therapeutic performances were altered due to antioxidant micronutrient supplementation. Hence, the review article was designed to collect, consolidate and discuss the effects of antioxidant micronutrient supplementation on productive, reproductive and therapeutic performances on ruminant species during transitional period in subtropics.

On inclusive distance vertex irregularity strength of book graph
Authors: Wahyu Ria Ammelia , Santoso Kiswara Agung , Slamin Slamin 
Published: March 2024

<p>The concept of distance vertex irregular labeling of graphs was introduced by Slamin in 2017. The <em>distance vertex irregular labeling</em> on a graph <em>G</em> with <em>v</em> vertices is defined as an assignment <em>λ</em> : V → {1, 2, ..., <em>k</em>} so that the weights calculated at vertices are distinct. The weight of a vertex <em>x</em> in <em>G</em> is defined as the sum of the labels of all the vertices adjacent to <em>x</em> (distance 1 from <em>x</em>). The distance vertex irregularity strength of graph <em>G</em>, denoted by <em>dis(G)</em>, is defined as the minimum value of the largest label <em>k</em> over all such irregular assignments. Bong, Lin and Slamin generalized the concept to inclusive and non-inclusive distance irregular labeling. The difference between them depends on the way to calculate the weight on the vertex whether the vertex label we calculate its weight is included or not. The <em>inclusive distance vertex irregularity strength</em> of <em>G</em>, is defined as the minimum of the largest label <em>k</em> over all such inclusive irregular assignments. In this paper, we determine the inclusive distance vertex irregularity strength of some particular classes of graphs such as book graph.</p>

Published: March 2024

Background:
The long-term impact of reoperations following adult spinal deformity (ASD) surgery is still poorly understood. Our aim was to identify the relationship between unplanned reoperation and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) gain at 2 and 5 years of follow-up.

Methods:
We included patients enrolled in a prospective ASD database who underwent surgery ≥5 years prior to the start of the study and who had 2 years of follow-up data. Adverse events (AEs) leading to an unplanned reoperation, the time of reoperation occurrence, invasiveness (blood loss, surgical time, hospital stay), and AE resolution were assessed. HRQoL was measured with use of the Oswestry Disability Index, Scoliosis Research Society-22, and Short Form-36. Linear models controlling for baseline data and index surgery characteristics were utilized to assess the relationships between HRQoL gain at 2 and 5-year follow-up and the number and invasiveness of reoperations. The association between 5-year HRQoL gain and the time of occurrence of the unplanned reoperation and that between 5-year HRQoL gain and AE resolution were also investigated.

Results:
Of 361 eligible patients, 316 (87.5%) with 2-year follow-up data met the inclusion criteria and 258 (71.5%) had 5-year follow-up data. At the 2-year follow-up, 96 patients (30.4%) had a total of 165 unplanned reoperations (1.72 per patient). At the 5-year follow-up, 73 patients (28.3%) had a total of 117 unplanned reoperations (1.60 per patient). The most common cause of reoperations was mechanical complications (64.9%), followed by surgical site infections (15.7%). At the 5-year follow-up, the AE that led to reoperation was resolved in 67 patients (91.8%). Reoperation invasiveness was not associated with 5-year HRQoL scores. The number of reoperations was associated with lesser HRQoL gain at 5 years for all HRQoL measures. The mean associated reduction in HRQoL gain per unplanned reoperation was 41% (range, 19% to 66%). Reoperations resulting in no resolution of the AE or resolution with sequelae had a greater impact on 5-year follow-up HRQoL scores than reoperations resulting in resolution of the AE.

Conclusions:
A postoperative, unplanned reoperation following ASD surgery was associated with lesser gain in HRQoL at 5 years of follow-up. The association did not diminish over time and was affected by the number, but not the magnitude, of reoperations. Resolution of the associated AE reduced the impact of the unplanned reoperation.

Effect of Postoperative Kinesio Taping on Knee Edema, Pain, and Range of Motion After Total Knee Arthroplasty and Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
Authors: Azimi Amirali , Dizaji Shayan Roshdi , Tabatabaei Fatemeh-sadat , Safari Saeed , Nakhaei Amroodi Morteza , Azimi Amir Farbod 
Published: March 2024

Background:
Kinesio taping (KT) has been shown to be clinically effective in a wide range of musculoskeletal disorders. Despite evidence supporting KT, there still needs to be more certainty regarding its clinical worthiness in managing postoperative conditions. This study aims to assess the effect of postoperative KT on knee edema, pain, and range of motion (ROM) when added to routine physiotherapy after knee surgery.

Methods:
In this systematic review and meta-analysis, MEDLINE, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science, and CENTRAL databases were searched from their inception to July 2023. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing routine physiotherapy with and without KT were included. Random-effect models were used to calculate the standardized mean difference (SMD), confidence interval, and heterogeneity (I2).

Results:
Sixteen RCTs on 842 operated knees were included. KT reduced knee edema in first week (SMD, −0.59, p < 0.001), 14th postoperative day (POD) (SMD, −0.78, p < 0.001), and 28 to 42 days postop (SMD, −0.66, p < 0.001). The KT demonstrated significant pain improvement in second week (SMD, −0.87, p < 0.001) and the fourth week (SMD, −0.53, p < 0.001). The KT groups demonstrated ROM improvement within second week (SMD, 0.69, p = 0.010) and in the 28th POD (SMD, 0.89, p = 0.009). Subgroup analysis demonstrated minimal heterogeneity in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) cases. However, it did not show significant superiority regarding ankle, calf, or thigh edema and Lysholm scale.

Conclusion:
This study suggests that adding KT to routine postoperative physiotherapy reduces pain and knee edema after total knee arthroplasty or ACLR. Low to very low certainty of evidence for all outcomes and the limited number of studies emphasize the need for more high-quality primary studies to explore the optimal method of KT application and its effectiveness in specific knee surgeries.

Breast Cancer Local Recurrence in Patients with and without Post-Mastectomy Immediate Breast Reconstruction: Systematic Review &amp; Meta-Analysis Protocol
Authors: Chao Melissa , Long David , Woo Kellan , Toameh Dana , Isaac Kathryn 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
Introduction: Today mastectomy and breast reconstruction are often coupled for women with breast cancer, where mastectomy has the chance to remove the tumour and reconstruction improves the aesthetic appearance. While rates of post-mastectomy immediate breast reconstruction (IBR) are on the rise, there remains fears of local recurrence (LR).1,2
Purpose: This systematic review aims to compare long-term LR rates in a group of patients with mastectomy and IBR (Mast + IBR) to a group of patients with mastectomy without IBR (Mast – IBR).
Methods: The online databases Medline, Embase, and Web of Science will be searched for relevant articles. Articles published between January 2000 to December 2020 that report LR rates for groups patients who underwent mastectomy for stage I or II breast cancer with or without IBR with stage will be included. The risk of bias will be assessed using the Johanna Briggs Institute scale for observational studies. A fixed-effects meta-regression model will calculate the pooled odds ratio with a 95% confidence interval, adjusted for age and follow-up time.
Implications: Moreover, this review will synthesis the literature surrounding the study factors, patient factors, reconstructive factors, and outcome factors associated with LR. Finally, the findings will be used to develop clinical recommendations for breast cancer reconstruction.
Ethics and dissemination: Ethics approval is not required. The systematic review will be submitted for publication in a peer-reviewed journal.

Agile robotic fish based on direct drive of continuum body
Authors: Iguchi Keisuke , Shimooka Taiki , Tanaka Hiroto , Ikemoto Yusuke , Shintake Jun 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
Fish-like agile movements, such as fast forward swimming and rapid turning, are essential for robots to perform a wide variety of tasks in aquatic environments. However, achieving these locomotion capabilities simultaneously in existing biomimetic underwater robots has proven challenging. Here, we present a self-contained robotic fish capable of swimming at a speed of 6.3 body length per second and pivot turning at an angular speed of 1450° per second. These fast motions, which compare well with those of real fish, are realized by directly oscillating a flexible body using an electromagnetic motor. This direct-drive (DD) method eliminates the need for transmission parts, simplifies the robotic structure, improves mechanical robustness, and enables the use of a flexible continuum body that passively interacts with water, generating fish-like body deformations and subsequent rapid swimming. This also allows the robot to have the Strouhal and swimming numbers that match the typical values observed in nature. Moreover, the observed frequency peaks in swimming are similar to computed values using a model, which guides the design of the robot. These results illustrate the DD method as a promising framework for the creation of highly versatile biomimetic underwater robots.
The contribution of posterior corneal astigmatism to ocular residual astigmatism
Authors: Yan Dongmei , Lin Jian , An Dexiang , Wu Haiqian , Lu Yun 
Published: March 2024

Abstract

Objectives
To determine the main sources of ocular residual astigmatism (ORA) and the contribution of posterior corneal astigmatism (PCA) to ORA.
Methods
This cross-sectional study was conducted on 177 right eyes of 177 patients. Anterior corneal astigmatism (ACA) and PCA were obtained from Pentacam. ORA was calculated by the vector difference between refractive astigmatism (RA) and ACA. Pearson correlation coefficient was used to assess relationships between variables. The contribution of PCA to ORA was evaluated by a physical method.
Results
Mean magnitude of PCA was 0.40 ± 0.15 D (rang 0.10 to 0.70 D). Mean amount of ORA was 0.69 ± 0.33 D (rang 0.05 to 1.63 D). There was a statistically significant correlation between the magnitudes of PCA and ORA (r = 0.38, P < 0.001). The PCA in 171 eyes (96.61%) supplemented ORA. The mean superimposed value (SV) was 0.37 ± 0.16 D (rang 0.01 to 0.70 D). The against-the-rule PCA can not only superimpose but also counteract with-the-rule and oblique ORA. The against-the-rule ORA can be superimposed by with-the-rule, against-the-rule and oblique PCA. Of the 171 eyes, the SV of 85 eyes(49.71%) were larger than half of the magnitude of ORA. In a minority of eyes, PCA can have a negative effect on ORA and may be greater than it.
Conclusions
Approximately half of the magnitude of ocular residual astigmatism comes from posterior corneal astigmatism. The SV/ORA ratio may be used to personalize the surgical
