Authors: Singh Ajeet Pal , Singh Amar Pal 
Published: January 2025

The implementation of the product patent regime in India, following the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS) in 2005, has significantly impacted the dynamics of the pharmaceutical industry in the country. This study examines how the product patent system affects the general public's ability to get necessary medications, especially in light of the Indian pharmaceutical industry. The transition from a process patent regime to a product patent regime has led to a shift in the strategies of pharmaceutical companies operating in India. While the introduction of product patents has incentivized innovation and research and development (R&D) investments, concerns have been raised regarding its impact on affordability and accessibility of essential medicines, especially for marginalized and economically disadvantaged populations. Drawing upon empirical evidence and case studies, this paper contributes to the ongoing discourse on the interface between intellectual property rights, pharmaceutical innovation, and public health, with specific relevance to the Indian context. It underscores the importance of adopting a balanced approach that safeguards both innovation incentives and public health interests in shaping the future trajectory of the Indian pharmaceutical industry.

Published: January 2025

El cáñamo fue introducido al país por los españoles y tuvo su auge hacia el siglo XVIII, cuando se sembraba junto con otras fibras como lino y algodón. En los últimos años ha resurgido el interés por el cáñamo (Cannabis sativa sativa L.) en México, quizá por los usos potenciales que tiene en diversas industrias. Por lo anterior, el objetivo de esta investigación fue delimitar las zonas más aptas para el cultivo de cáñamo en temporal en el territorio nacional, mediante la aplicación del método de zonificación agroecológica. Para ello, a través de revisión bibliográfica, se identificaron los requerimientos edafológicos y climáticos para el cáñamo. Con herramientas de sistemas de información geográfica se realizó una zonificación agroecológica para identificar las zonas aptas, no aptas y aquellas moderadamente aptas para el cultivo de cáñamo. Posteriormente, se visitó un sitio donde se cultiva la especie para conocer la opinión de los productores. Los resultados muestran que 5 % de la superficie nacional muestra aptitud edafoclimática para el cultivo de cáñamo; con algunas limitantes se encuentra el 17 % del país y el restante 78 % de la superficie no cuenta con aptitud. Los estados de Chiapas, Tabasco, Oaxaca, Veracruz e Hidalgo son los que presentan mayor superficie apta en condiciones de temporal. El factor climático es la mayor limitante para el cultivo de cáñamo en condiciones de temporal en México. Los productores subrayan el potencial que se tiene en su región y en el país para dicho cultivo. La investigación concluye señalando las regiones con aptitud para el crecimiento del cultivo. Existe potencial natural para su cultivo en el país, sin embargo, es necesario que se desarrolle un marco regulatorio que diferencie al cáñamo de la Cannabis psicotrópica.

Writing skills are one of the basic skills that students must have in participating in learning process activities. However, there are still many students who still experience difficulties in writing that affect the achievement of the learning process. The purpose of this study is to analyze the difficulties of learning to write in children in one of the elementary schools in Siak Regency, Riau. The research method used was qualitative with a case analysis study approach. Data collection techniques in the form of subject observation, writing tests and CA homeroom teacher interviews then, analyzed by means of data reduction, data presentation and conclusion drawing. The results showed that the subject with the initials CA experienced writing difficulties including (1) Errors in writing letters: Capital letters, small letters, double consonants and diphthongs; (2) Word structure errors: Omissions, additions, changes and misordering of letters; (3) Spacing and proportion errors: Spacing between words, letter shapes and writing results and (4) Difficulty distinguishing letters: Letters with almost the same shape and sound. The cause is due to the lack of assistance and support provided by families and teachers and the lack of vocabulary mastered. Therefore, it is very important to have assistance from parents and teachers in the process of learning to write children besides that, special training is also needed to improve writing skills to get better.

The alongshore tilt of mean dynamic topography and its implications for model validation and ocean monitoring
Authors: Renkl Christoph , Oliver Eric C. J. , Thompson Keith R. 
Published: January 2025

Abstract. Mean dynamic topography (MDT) plays an important role in the dynamics of shelf circulation. Coastal tide gauge observations in combination with the latest generation of geoid models are providing estimates of the alongshore tilt of MDT with unprecedented accuracy. Additionally, high-resolution ocean models are providing better representations of nearshore circulation and the associated tilt of MDT along their coastal boundaries. It has been shown that the newly available geodetic estimates can be used to validate model predictions of coastal MDT variability on global and basin scales. On smaller scales, however, there are significant variations in alongshore MDT that are of the same order of magnitude as the accuracy of the geoid models. In this study, we use a regional ocean model of the Gulf of Maine and Scotian Shelf (GoMSS) to demonstrate that the new observations of geodetically referenced coastal sea level can also provide valuable information for the validation of such high-resolution models. The predicted coastal MDT is in good agreement with coastal tide gauge observations referenced to the Canadian Gravimetric Geoid 2013 – Version A (CGG2013a), including a significant tilt of alongshore MDT along the coast of Nova Scotia. Using the validated GoMSS model and two idealized models, we show that this alongshore tilt of MDT can be interpreted in two complementary, and dynamically consistent, ways: in the coastal view, the tilt of MDT along the coast can provide a direct estimate of the average alongshore current. In the regional view, the tilt provides a measure of area-integrated nearshore circulation. This highlights the value of using geodetic MDT estimates for model validation and ocean monitoring.

Authors: Escobar Méndez Laura Patricia , Tejada Peña David Alexander , Álvarez de Mata Zaida Ivette 
Published: January 2025

Introducción. Las enfermedades transmitidas por alimentos representan un problema creciente de salud pública. Se calcula que hay alrededor de 600 millones de personas que enferman por ingerir alimentos contaminados en el mundo. En El Salvador, durante 2023, se reportaron 129 casos de intoxicación alimentaria. Objetivo. Determinar las causas de un brote de enfermedad transmitida por alimentos en un centro escolar público del municipio de Nahuizalco, departamento de Sonsonate. Metodología. Se realizó un estudio de casos y controles con relación 2:1 en 205 alumnos de un centro escolar público en El Salvador involucrados en un brote de enfermedad transmitida por alimentos. Se utilizaron medidas de frecuencia, distribución y asociación como Odds Ratios (OR) con sus respectivas medidas de significancia estadística. Y se recolectaron hisopados de los lechos ungueales y nasofaríngeos de los manipuladores de alimentos. Resultados. Se identificaron 64 casos confirmados, a predominio del sexo femenino (58 %). El síntoma más frecuente fue el dolor abdominal (77 %) y la mayoría de los casos fueron leves con manejo ambulatorio (67 %). En el análisis estadístico, el consumo de cereal con leche mostró una asociación significativa con un Odds Ratio de 19,67 (IC 95 %: 6,78 – 57,10). Conclusión. La causa asociada al brote fue la ingesta de cereal con leche preparado por los manipuladores de alimentos del centro escolar. Debido a la falta de pruebas diagnósticas y al retraso en la notificación del brote al sistema de salud, la identificación del agente causal no fue posible.
Expertise in Choral Rehearsing: A Case Study of Craig Hella Johnson
Authors: Cox Katrina A. , Simmons Amy L. 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
The study of expertise in music teaching describes professional behavior that can inform the practice of novices, experienced teachers, and teacher educators, yet only one peer-reviewed article has analyzed the work of an expert choral conductor (Yarbrough, 2002). Here, we report a case study of the Grammy Award-winning choral conductor Craig Hella Johnson that documents his work across a complete rehearsal cycle that preceded a public performance. Our aim was to explore a published 19-element framework of expert music teaching (Duke & Simmons, 2006) in the context of this expert's rehearsals and to provide vivid illustrations of the behaviors we observed. We reviewed video recordings of approximately 390 minutes of Johnson's full ensemble work with the professional choral ensemble Conspirare, analyzed that footage for evidence of the common elements, and interviewed Johnson. In addition to providing detail regarding Johnson's demonstration of these 19 elements of expert teaching, we describe five nuanced differences that are attributable to ensemble context and singers’ professional training, and at Johnson's request, we modified specific terms in three elements. These data contribute new information to our understanding of expert choral rehearsing and suggest ways in which choral teachers at all levels might experiment with these ideas.

Nutritional Performance of Extracted Soybean, Full-Fat Soya and Maize Gluten Meal Compared to a Fishmeal-Based Reference Diet for Juvenile Tilapia (Oreochromis Mossambicus)
Authors: Bell Matt Elliott , Davies Simon John 
Published: January 2025

Modern diets for aquaculture are highly complex and utilize a broad range of ingredients, including animal and plant byproducts. This study focused on the rationale of obtaining primary nutritional responses of tilapia evaluating two major ingredients, namely soybean meal and maize gluten meals by replacing fishmeal at set levels of incorporation. A two-onth investigation evaluated selected plant protein sources compared to fish meal protein in scientifically formulated diets for fingerling tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus). Six nutritionally balanced diets: one reference (control) diet (fish-meal based diet), three selected plant proteins (solvent extracted soybean, full-fat soybean, and maize gluten) were substituted for the LT (Low Temperature dried) fish-meal-based control diet protein at 50% respectively, and the remaining diets were replaced with 75% inclusion of solvent extracted soybean and maize gluten meals. Results showed that solvent extracted soybean meal, 50 (SESB50), Full fat soybean, 50% (FFSB50) and Maize gluten, 50% (MG50) fed tilapia did not appreciably differ in their growth performance (percent weight gain of 279.36, 249.23, and 194.13% respectively) with a final mean weight of 14.95g being significantly superior (<0.05) for the fishmeal control (CO) group. Substitution of fish meal with solvent-extracted soybean and maize gluten at levels of 75% gave the poorest growth performance and Feed Efficiency (FE) (7.01g final weight, 51% FE). However, the MG50 diet also showed inferior feed utilisation performance. However, tilapia fed on a full-fat soybean diet (FFSB50) did not vary significantly from the control (CON) diet in terms of protein utilisation (ANPU) at 34.20% and 37.53% respectively. Whilst this preliminary study concluded that limitations on the use of the selected plant proteins in diets for tilapia are apparent, several approaches that could result in the future improvement of the nutritional value of soybean and maize gluten products for use in fish diets are also stated.

Published: January 2025

Aim:
To estimate time-to-progression milestones in people with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (PALS) treated versus not treated with intravenous (IV) edaravone (Radicava
®
IV, Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma America [MTPA], hereafter “IV edaravone”) in a real-world setting.
Background:
IV edaravone is US FDA approved for the treatment of ALS and was shown in clinical trials to slow the rate of physical functional decline.
Patients & methods:
This retrospective observational analysis included PALS continuously enrolled in Optum's Clinformatics
®
Data Mart between 8 August 2017 and 31 December 2021. Cases treated with IV edaravone and controls not treated with IV edaravone were propensity score matched for: age, sex, race, US region of residence, pre-index disease duration, insurance, riluzole prescription; and pre-index claims for cardiovascular disease, artificial nutrition/gastrostomy tube, noninvasive ventilation and all-cause hospitalization. The index date was the first IV edaravone claim for cases; for controls, the index date was randomly assigned after IV edaravone market availability. Restricted mean time lost was calculated for the following disease progression milestones: new use of canes/walkers/wheelchairs, artificial nutrition, noninvasive ventilation, invasive ventilation, speech-generating devices and hospice.
Results:
Cases (n = 395) were matched to controls (n = 395). Cases had less restricted mean time lost, indicating longer disease progression milestone-free time, for all disease progression milestones. From 0 to 24 months post index, more cases (n = 129) than controls (n = 103) reported no milestones and more controls (n = 232) than cases (n = 131) reported deaths.
Conclusion:
In a US-based real-world setting, IV edaravone-treated PALS had a longer time to disease progression milestone events and fewer deaths in 2 years compared with PALS not treated with IV edaravone.
