Co-management of a high-value species with territorial use rights for fisheries: a spatial bioeconomic approach with environmental variability
Authors: Vargas-López Victor Gerardo , Arreguín-Sánchez Francisco , Gutiérrez-González José Luis , Seijo Juan Carlos 
Published: October 2023

Abalone is a high-value resource that is an important export market fishery of Mexico that is managed through territorial use rights for fisheries allocated to a coastal community. A specific age-structured spatial bioeconomic model was applied to this fishery to undertake stock recovery to target levels. The model incorporates uncertainty in the parameter k of a von Bertalanffy growth function with environmental variability. The risk of falling below and exceeding the target and bioeconomic limit reference points of the population with alternative fisheries management strategies was studied using a Monte Carlo analysis. The management strategy evaluation showed that Emin (minimum effort) and EmaxNPV (resource rent maximization effort) generated higher biomass levels and higher present value of resource rent than Emsy (effort in maximum sustainable yield) at the end of the simulation period, regardless of the bioeconomic reference points and assuming a reduction in fishing effort. Emin and EmaxNPV increased and maximized the present value of resource rent generated by the species while avoiding its overexploitation. The social consequences of the management strategies were considered with the participation of fishers of this co-managed fishery.

Objective: The percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) in Horseshoe kidneys (HSK) is usually performed in the prone position, allowing entry through the upper pole and providing good access to the collecting system. However, in patients with normal kidney anatomy, the supine position is reliable and safe in most cases, but it is unknown whether the supine position is adequate in patients with HSK. The purpose of this study was to describe the results of PCNL in HSK in three different surgical institutions and to evaluate the impact of supine position during surgery, comparing pre-operative and post-operative data, complications, and stone status after surgery. Material and Methods: Between 2017 and 2022, a total of 10 patients underwent percutaneous renal surgery for stone disease in HSK. All patients were evaluated pre- and post- operatively with non-contrast CT. we evaluated patients (age and gender), stones characteristics (size, number, side, site and density ), and outcomes. The change in haemoglobin, hematocrit, creatinine and eGFr were assessed between the most recent preoperative period and the first postoperative day. Procedure success was defined as stone-free or presence of ≤4 mm fragments (Clinically Insignificant residual Fragments – CIrF). Complications were registered and classified according to Clavien-dindo Grading System, during the 30 - day postoperative period and Clavien scores ≥ 3 were considered as major complications. Statistical analysis was performed using “r 4.2.1” software, with a 5% significance level. we also compared pre-operative and post-operative data using “wilcoxon signedrank test”. Results: No statistical difference was observed between preoperative and post-operative renal function data. At one post operative day CT scan, an overall success rate of 100% was registered. 9/10 patients were completely free from urolithiasis (stone-free rate: 90%), while 1/10 patients had ≤4 mm residual stone fragments (CIrF rate: 10%). No cases of intraoperative complications were registered. Post-operative complications were reported in 1/10 patients. A patient developed urosepsis (defined as SIrS with clinical signs of bacterial infections involving urogenital organs - Clavien-dindo Grade II) after procedure, and was treated with intravenous antibiotic therapy successfully. Conclusions: This study shows that in patients with HSK mini- PCNL in supine position allows to achieve good stone free rate with a very low morbidity. According to our series, the described technique for PCNL in HSK should be an option. Nevertheless these results must be confirmed by further studies.
Prevalence and severity of anxiety symptoms among family members of nyaope users in Tshwane, South Africa
Authors: Mokwena Kebogile E. , Madiga Maphuti C. 
Published: October 2023

Background: Nyaope is a strongly addictive novel psychoactive substance that is commonly used in predominantly black townships in South Africa. The undesired behaviours of the users result in family members developing mental health challenges. Nyaope users often commit petty crimes, including stealing from families and neighbours.Aim: The aim of this study was to quantify anxiety symptoms among family members of nyaope users in Tshwane, South Africa.Setting: Data were collected from nine townships within Tshwane Metropolitan Municipality.Methods: The quantitative cross-sectional survey used the General Anxiety Disorder (GAD-7) tool to quantify anxiety symptoms, and a questionnaire was used to collect sociodemographic data from a sample of 390 participants.Results: The ages of the participants ranged from 18 years to 87 years, with a mean of 47 years. The mothers to the nyaope users were the biggest group at 35% (n = 138). The prevalence of anxiety symptoms was 73% (n = 286) of the total sample and ranged from mild (41.8, n = 163), moderate (14.62, n = 57) and severe (16.92%, n = 66). The Pearson chi-square test identified significant associations between anxiety symptoms and the gender of the participant (p = 0.001), the age of the nyaope user and the period of nyaope use (p = 0.008). Multivariate regression model indicated gender and place of residence as a significant variable in the development of anxiety symptoms (p = 0.01).Conclusion: Nyaope use is a risk factor for the development of anxiety for family members of nyaope users with the highest proportion reporting mild symptoms.Contribution: There is a need to develop interventions for mental health support for families of nyaope users.
HOX transcript antisense intergenic RNA is differentially expressed in hypertrophic scar tissues and regulates the biological function of scar fibroblasts through sponging miR-30a-5p
Authors: Song Yong , Wang Yi , Chen Minjian , Wei Zhenni 
Published: October 2023

Background:
The pathogenesis of hypertrophic scars (HS) is complex and unclear. It is of great importance to investigate the formation mechanism of HS at the gene level, find new targets for gene therapy, and establish effective prevention strategies for the formation of HS.

Objectives:
The study explored the expression pattern of HOX transcript antisense intergenic RNA (HOTAIR) and miR-30a-5p in scar tissues of HS patients and investigated their regulatory role in fibroblast function.

Methods:
Forty HS patients were recruited, and their scar tissues and adjacent normal skin tissues were collected. Fibroblasts were extracted from these tissues. The quantitative reverse transcription–polymerase chain reaction was used for the mRNA measurement. The CCK-8 and transwell assay were applied for cell proliferation and migration assessment. Luciferase reporter assay was done to verify the target gene of HOTAIR.

Results:
Elevated HOTAIR and decreased miR-30a-5p were measured in both scar tissues and scar fibroblasts, and their levels were negatively correlated. HOTAIR acted as the sponge of miR-30a-5p. HOTAIR knockdown inhibited fibroblast proliferation, migration, and the expression of collagen synthesis-related proteins (procollagen, alpha-smooth muscle actin, and collagen I), but these functions were abolished by miR-30a-5p downregulation.

Conclusion:
HS patients owned elevated HOTAIR and decreased miR-30a-5p. HOTAIR knockdown can inhibit the proliferation, migration, and collagen synthesis of scar fibroblasts by negatively regulating the expression of miR-30a-5p.

Authors: Sharma Jay Kumar 
Published: October 2023

Abstract

Background:
Central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) are the major causes of death in intensive care units (ICUs). Central venous catheter is mostly used in ICU for critically ill patients to provide long-time intravenous access, parenteral nutrition, medication, blood products, etc., However, it can cause bloodstream infections and sepsis that cause the death of the patient. Hence, the prevention and management of CLABSI is very necessary to control the mortality rate.

Objective:
The important objective of this study was to assess the effectiveness of the pocket reference booklet on knowledge regarding the prevention and management of CLABSI.

Design:
This study adopted a quantitative research approach with a preexperimental one-group pretest–posttest research design.

Setting (s):
ICUs of Mathura Das Mathur Hospital, Jodhpur.

Participants:
A nonprobability convenient sampling technique was used to select 80 ICU nurses.

Subjects and Methods:
Data were collected using a self-structured knowledge questionnaire. The questionnaire (30 multiple-choice questions) was given to the participant to complete the pretest. After this, the intervention (pocket reference booklet on prevention and management of CLABSI) was implemented to sample and posttest was taken.

Results:
The data showed that the mean difference between pretest and posttest knowledge scores was 5.75 ± 1.754 and the t-value was 29.32 (P < 0.001, highly significant) at 5% of the level of significance.

Conclusion:
After the data analysis of this study, the pocket reference booklet on prevention and management of CLABSI was found to be effective to increase the level of knowledge on prevention and management regarding CLABSI in ICU.
A Comparative Study of Muenster Socket versus Split Socket with Step-Up Hinge on Very Short Transradial Amputees
Authors: Kumari Rani 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
Persons with very short transradial stump find extreme difficulty in performing daily routine activities. The Muenster socket prosthesis was compared to split socket with step-up hinge prosthesis in this study, while both the designs were compared in terms of their advantages and functional effects on very short transradial amputees. A goniometer was used for measuring elbow joint range of motion by computing the angle from the axis of the joint for each specific joint, in addition to block box test study and kinetics of prosthesis. In block box test, mild increment with split socket with step-up hinge was observed as compared to the Muenster prosthesis. This may be due to amplification by split socket of the elbow joint motion and speed of the forearm with a terminal device. The statistical analysis of the data revealed that split socket with step-up hinge prosthesis provided better functional control for very short transradial amputees than the Muenster socket prosthesis.

Abstract

Objective:
The objective of this study was to assess the effectiveness of a comprehensive hospital-based sickle cell disease (SCD) model involving improvements of proven interventions in a tribal area of Gujarat, India.

Methods:
This was a quasi-experimental study involving five primary health centers each in the intervention and control groups. This study was conducted from June 2016 to May 2018 in three tribal areas of Gujarat, India. The intervention was a hospital-based comprehensive care model for SCD patients. We included all SCD patients between the ages of 5 and 40 years in the study area. We measured outcomes at baseline and end line by household survey. The analysis was done using a difference-in-difference method.

Results:
A total of 84 and 101 patients were recruited in the intervention and control groups, respectively. The baseline characteristics were comparable in both the groups. At end line, there was a significant difference in coverage of proven interventions including pneumococcal vaccination- odds ratio (OR) 21.3 (95% CI 9.7–46.8, P value 0.002), folic acid - OR 4.1 (CI 2.2–7.8, P <0.001), chloroquine –OR 4.9 (CI 2.4–10.2, P <0.001), and hydroxyurea for severe SCD patients - OR7.1 (CI 1.8–28.6, P < 0.001) in the intervention group compared to the control group. The improvement for the clinical outcome indicators including pain crisis rate (mean difference [MD]: −0.18 [−1.17–0.812]), hospitalization rate (MD: −0.08 [−0.375–0.210]), and blood transfusion rate (MD: −0.60 [−0.532–0.412]) in the intervention group in comparison with the control group was nonsignificant.

Conclusion:
This study shows that the comprehensive hospital-based SCD model has great potential to improve the coverage of proven interventions for SCD. Further investigation is needed to assess the impact on clinical outcomes.

Published: October 2023

В статье представлены психологические особенности феномена агрессии и агрессивного поведения, рассматриваются причины и механизмы его возникновения. Агрессия понимается как процесс, который имеет специфическую функцию, агрессивность же представляет собой конструкт, являющийся компонентом более сложной структуры психических свойств личности. Рассматриваются основные элементы агрессивного поведения: познавательный, эмоциональный и волевой. Реализация агрессивного поведения негативно отражается на различных аспектах служебной деятельности: оперативной обстановке в учреждении, социально-психологическом климате. Агрессивное поведение значительно осложняет как собственный учебно-воспитательный процесс, так и обучение других людей, выполнение профессиональных обязанностей личного состава. Основной акцент в статье делается на практических методах и приемах профилактики агрессивного поведения в условиях образовательной организации.
The article presents psychological features of the phenomenon of aggression and aggressive behavior and discusses causes and mechanisms of its occurrence. Aggression is understood as a process that has a specific function, while aggressiveness is a construct that is a component of a more complex structure of mental properties of a person. Key elements of aggressive behavior, such as cognitive, emotional and volitional, are considered. Implementation of aggressive behavior negatively affects various aspects of official activity: operational situation in the institution, socio-psychological climate. Aggressive behavior significantly complicates both the person’s own educational process and training of other people, as well as personnel’s performance of professional duties. The article proposes practical methods and techniques for the prevention of aggressive behavior in an educational organization.
