Abstract
Background
Common ultrasound imaging is hard to distinguish thyroid nodules of clinically atypical subacute thyroiditis (CAST) with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). The purpose of this study was to investigate the diagnostic value of real-time elastography combined with American College of Radiology Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (ACR-TIRADS) in differentiating these two lesions.

Results
Centripetal reduction echogenicity was only observed in the CAST nodules, with high specificity (100%) though low sensitivity (23.96%). Echogenic foci yielded good capability for differentiating PTC and CAST, with odds ratio (OR) of 36.572 and AUC of 0.788. Size and ES were independent factors to distinguish the two lesions with OR of 10.709 and 3.697, respectively. The combination of microcalcification, size < 10 mm and ES of 4 showed better AUC (0.885) than echogenic foci alone (p < 0.001). TI-RADS showed high sensitivity (91.23%) with specificity of 30.21% and AUC of 0.607 in predicting malignancy risk of PTC from CAST, while the AUC of ES and the combination of both methods were 0.508 and 0.585, respectively.

Conclusions
Centripetal reduction echogenicity, echogenic foci, size and ES may assist in the differential diagnosis of CAST and PTC nodules. ACR TI-RADS is superior to ES and the combination of both methods for distinguishing these two lesions.

Abstract
Background
Invasive fungal rhinosinusitis (IFRS) is a rare disorder with a high mortality rate. In this study, we reported four rare cases, two of them being the first reports in the literature, in addition, we reviewed retrospectively and discussed the effects of causative fungi, comorbid disorders, and intracranial involvement on mortality rate in 20 IFRS patients treated in the otolaryngology clinic between May 2019 and May 2021.

Results
There were 10 (50%) males and 10 females with a median age of 51 years. Seven patients had rhinomaxillary, 11 had rhino-orbito-cerebral IFRS, and two had atypical presentations that could not be classified. The most frequent comorbid condition was diabetes mellitus (DM), and the most frequent causative fungi were Mucormycetes. There was no difference between DM and other comorbidity groups for orbital involvement (p = 0.37), intracranial involvement (p = 0.17), hard palate involvement (p = 1), cranial nerve palsies (p = 0.17), causative fungi (p = 0.14), or mortality (p = 0.35). Mucormycetes and other fungi were similar for orbital involvement (p = 0.34), intracranial involvement (p = 0.16), hard palate involvement (p = 0.64), and mortality rate (p=0.35); however, cranial nerve palsies were significantly more frequent in Mucormycetes group (p = 0.04).

Conclusions
Urgent diagnosis and multidisciplinary treatment are mandatory in IFRS. Due to its high mortality rate, IFRS should always be kept in mind in cases with atypical presentation, particularly if the patient is in the risk group. The current gold standard in IFRS management is urgent wide surgical debridement and concomitant administration of antifungals.

ABSTRACT
High-sugar diets (HSDs) often lead to obesity and type 2 diabetes, both metabolic syndromes associated with stem cell dysfunction. However, it is unclear whether excess dietary sugar affects stem cells. Here, we report that HSD impairs stem cell function in the intestine and ovaries of female Drosophila prior to the onset of insulin resistance, a hallmark of type 2 diabetes. Although 1 week of HSD leads to obesity, impaired oogenesis and altered lipid metabolism, insulin resistance does not occur. HSD increases glucose uptake by germline stem cells (GSCs) and triggers reactive oxygen species-induced JNK signaling, which reduces GSC proliferation. Removal of excess sugar from the diet reverses these HSD-induced phenomena. A similar phenomenon is found in intestinal stem cells (ISCs), except that HSD disrupts ISC maintenance and differentiation. Interestingly, tumor-like GSCs and ISCs are less responsive to HSD, which may be because of their dependence on glycolytic metabolism and high energy demand, respectively. This study suggests that excess dietary sugar induces oxidative stress and damages stem cells before insulin resistance develops, a mechanism that may also occur in higher organisms.
Construction of a physical fitness evaluation index system and model for high-level freestyle skiing aerials athletes in China
Authors: Yao Youwei , Niu Xuesong 
Published: December 2023

Objective
This study aims to enhance the competitive level of Chinese freestyle skiing aerials athletes by developing a specialized physical fitness evaluation index system and model tailored for high-level Chinese athletes. This system intends to provide theoretical references and training monitoring schemes in preparation for the 25th Milan Winter Olympics.

Methods
A study was conducted on 29 high-level Chinese freestyle skiing aerials athletes. Physical fitness test indexes were selected using a literature review, expert interviews, and questionnaire surveys, and athletes were tested. Athletes were ensured to be in optimal physical condition before testing. Based on the test results, the representative indexes of the evaluation system are finally determined by combining R-type clustering analysis, multiple linear regression analysis. Determine index weights through weight questionnaires and normalization, and develop evaluation standards through methods such as percentile counting and weighted scoring.

Results
Physical fitness evaluation system for Chinese freestyle skiing aerialists includes three aspects: evaluation index, index weight, and evaluation standard. The evaluation indexes include 3 first-level, 11 second-level, and 11 third-level indexes of body form, physiological function, and physical quality. In the evaluation weight, physical quality is ranked first, and physiological function and body form rank second and third, respectively. The evaluation standard consists of a scoring evaluation standard and a rating evaluation standard. Based on the index system, this study constructs the general and ideal physical fitness model of China’s high-level freestyle aerials athletes.

Conclusion
The constructed physical fitness evaluation system effectively represents physical fitness development status of high-level freestyle skiing aerials athletes, providing a basis for creating personalized training plans. The established model serves as a reference for athletes’ physical fitness development objectives.
Spatial variation and predictors of missing birth preparedness and complication readiness (BPCR) messages in Ethiopia
Authors: Habte Aklilu , Hailegebreal Samuel , Melis Tamirat , Haile Dereje 
Published: December 2023

Background
The Birth Preparedness and Complication Readiness (BPCR) message is one of the prenatal care packages targeted at reducing maternal and neonatal mortality by avoiding unnecessary delays during labor and delivery. There is limited evidence in Ethiopia that has looked at the spatial variation of missing BPCR messages and potential predictors. Hence, this study aimed to identify spatial predictors missing BPCR messages at the national level.

Methods
The study was based on analysis of 2016 Ethiopia Demographic Health Survey data, using a weighted sample of 4771 women. Arc-GIS version 10.7 and SaTScan version 9.6 statistical software were used for the spatial analysis. To explore spatial variation and locate spatial clusters of missing BPCR messages, the Global Moran’s I statistic and Bernoulli-based spatial scan (SaTScan) analysis were carried out, respectively. Hotspot (Getis-OrdGi*) analysis was conducted to identify Hotspots and Cold spotsof missing BPCR messages. Finally, spatial regression were carried out via ordinary least squares and geographically weighted regression to identify predictors of hotspots for missing BPCR messages.

Results
The overall prevalence of missing BPCR messages in Ethiopia was found to be 44.0% (95%CI: 42.6, 45.4%), with significant spatial variation across regions (Moran’s I = 0.218, p-value<0.001) and seven most likely significant SaTScan clusters. The vast majority of Somali, central Afar, and Gambella regions were identified as statistically significant hotspots. Living in the poorest wealth quintile, having only one ANC visit, lack of access to listening to the radio, facing difficulty in accessing money, not having a mobile phone, and being not covered by health insurance were identified as significant spatial predictors of missing BPCR messages.

Conclusion
The level of missing BPCR messages during pregnancy was found to be high in Ethiopia, with significant local variation. As a result, policymakers at the national level and local planners should develop strategies and initiatives that enhance women’s economic capacities, health-seeking behavior, and media exposure. Furthermore, the regional authorities should focus on strategies that promote universal health coverage through enrolling citizens in health insurance schemes.

Abstract
Water-deficit problem in Egypt due to the scarcity of water resources and climatic changes causes significant stress on all crops such as grapevines. Using soil conditioners like superabsorbent polymer (SAP) and Bentonite (BENT) can reduce water problems due to their abilities to store more water and improve the physical and chemical characteristics of soil.
A field experiment with a completely randomized block design was carried out in three replicates at a private farm in Minia Governorate, Egypt to assess the influence of SAP and BENT on growth, yield, and water productivity (WP) of Red Globe grapevines as well as some physical and chemical properties of soil under water deficit regime (75 and 50% of water requirement) and full irrigation 100% of water requirement (control) during 2021 and 2022 seasons. The vines were 13 years and irrigated by a drip irrigation system in sandy soil. The studied soil was treated with different doses of SAP (250 and 500 g/vine) and BENT (200 and 400 g/vine).
The obtained results showed that reducing irrigation to 75 and 50% of the water requirements led to significant decrease in vegetative growth metrics, readings for SPAD, leaf nutrients (N, P, and K), yield and its constituents as well as the physical and chemical properties of the berries compared to full irrigation. Adding SAP and BENT significantly increase the aforementioned characteristics under water deficit conditions. Application of SAP and BENT was the most effective way to mitigate the negative effects of water shortage on growing Red Globe grapes in sandy soil. SAP gave better results than BENT.
Thus, applying superabsorbent 500 g/vine with deficit irrigation 75% of water requirements was a successful treatment in producing an economical yield and berries with fairly high quality and had a positive effect in enhancing WP as well as it proved to be a promising method to improve sandy soil characteristics.

Calciphylaxis in a patient with hypoparathyroidism and MEN-1 syndrome
Authors: van Heeswijk Isabelle , Ugur Antonia , Havill Lynsey , Kinton Rebecca , Hughes David 
Published: December 2023

Summary
Calciphylaxis is a rare disorder characterised by the development of painful necrotic skin lesions. Occlusion of cutaneous arterioles due to ectopic calcification leads to potentially life-threatening widespread skin loss. Most cases occur in patients with chronic renal disease, which leads to dysregulation of calcium and phosphate homeostasis. Only a handful of case reports exist describing calciphylaxis occurring in patients without chronic renal disease but with hypoparathyroidism. We report on a unique case of a 53-year-old man with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 syndrome and acquired hypoparathyroidism due to total parathyroidectomy who went on to develop calciphylaxis following cardiac surgery.

Learning points

Calciphylaxis most commonly occurs in the context of chronic renal disease but can rarely occur in its absence as a consequence of calcium and phosphate dysregulation.

Patients who develop necrotic skin lesions in the presence of hypoparathyroidism require an urgent dermatological opinion.

Mortality from calciphylaxis is high, with the majority of deaths occurring secondary to sepsis.

Management of calciphylaxis requires a multidisciplinary team approach to manage wound healing, infections and pain.

Recovery with full rehabilitation from calciphylaxis can take months to years.

Published: December 2023

The VANET, which consists of the Internet and the Internet of Things (IoT), has recently been implemented with the Internet of Vehicles (IoV). Through the use of a car network and an AdHoc approach, it provides the user with environmental traffic information. Combining the networks of cars, known as VANETs, allows for infrastructure-free data transfer, particularly for entertainment and emergency vehicle notification. The data or packet delivery ratio, data communication latency, data transmission faults, and details of vehicle collisions are among the traffic information provided by the internet of vehicles. In this work, an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is used to solve the problem of route optimisation in VANET topologies for effective data transfer. Many routing protocols are used to improve the effectiveness of the packet or data routing process. In order to alleviate the routing issue and generate an effective way for efficient data transfer with strong network stability, the Optimised Link State Routing (OLSR) Protocol is used in this study with energy-saving techniques on many parameters. To evaluate the efficacy of the suggested routing technique on various network sizes, extensive simulations are carried out on the NS2 simulator with various network parameters. When compared to traditional routing protocols along UAV-based protocols for data transmission, the performance results of the suggested data routing solution employing OLSR protocol achieve higher efficient pathways. Ultimately, the suggested routing system produces superior outcomes in terms of message throughput, message delivery ratio, latency and network overhead on comparing with existing routing protocols.

Authors: V. L. SEDIN  , Е. М. BIKUS  , V. V. KOVBA  
Published: December 2023

Purpose. To investigate the influence of repeated static preloading on CFA-pile settlement. To conduct two cycles of large diameter CFA-pile field tests with pressing loading after a stress-relief period. Methodology. The first pile preloading was performed after a 28-day stress relief period, the repeated pile preloading - in 26-day period. Plastic strains have become evident after the first cycle. In the course of the second cycle ‘settlement-load’ curve shows linear dependence on a definite index, when the loading is Pmax in the first cycle the settlement is 1/5 of the total. After repeated static pile loading, maximum pile load capacity has increased by 27% whereas its settlement has decreased by 12 %. Originality. New field tests results of the influence of repeated static loading on a CFA-pile settlement have been obtained. Practical value. The repeated static pile loading enables to determine the ultimate bearing capacity under certain engineering and geological conditions since the loading is performed until the pile is collapsed. It makes also possible to eliminate soil weakening under the pile heel due to technological fabrication features of continuous flight augering piles.
