Background and objectivesMagnetic anchor technique (MAT) is frequently used in laparoscopic cholecystectomy. However, there are few reports on its clinical application in China. In this study, we retrospectively analyzed the clinical application of MAT in laparoscopic cholecystectomy in China.Materials and methods25 patients (4 males, 21 females) who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy assisted by MAT at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University were enrolled from November 2020 to March 2021. Their records were retrospectively analyzed. The magnetic anchor device was independently designed and developed by the authors and consisted of the anchor magnet and magnetic grasping apparatus. Surgical time, intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative accidents, operator experience, postoperative incision pain score, postoperative complications, and other indicators were evaluated and analyzed.ResultsAll patients successfully underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy, including 3 cases of MAT-assisted transumbilical single-port LC, 16 cases of MAT-assisted 2-port LC and 6 cases of conventional 3-port LC. The median operation time was 50 min (range 30–95 min); intraoperative bleeding was less than 30 ml. The median score of surgical incision on day 1 and 3 after the operation was 3 (range 1–4) and 1 (range 1–3), respectively. All patients had no intraoperative bile duct injury, vascular injury, postoperative bleeding, bile leakage, biliary stricture and other complications. No adverse events (such as injury to adjacent organs or failure of the magnetic anchor device) occurred either during or after the operation.ConclusionsThe MAT-assisted laparoscopic cholecystectomy appears to be safe, feasible and effective and exhibits unique assistance in transumbilical single-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

IntroductionPig growth is an important economic trait that involves the co-regulation of multiple genes and related signaling pathways. High-throughput sequencing has become a powerful technology for establishing the transcriptome profiles and can be used to screen genome-wide differentially expressed genes (DEGs). In order to elucidate the molecular mechanism underlying muscle growth, this study adopted RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) to identify and compare DEGs at the genetic level in the longissimus dorsi muscle (LDM) between two indigenous Chinese pig breeds (Diannan small ears [DSE] pig and Wujin pig [WJ]) and one introduced pig breed (Landrace pig [LP]).MethodsAnimals under study were from two Chinese indigenous pig breeds (DSE pig, n = 3; WJ pig, n = 3) and one introduced pig breed (LP, n = 3) were used for RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) to identify and compare the expression levels of DEGs in the LDM. Then, functional annotation, Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analysis, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis, and Protein–Protein Interaction (PPI) network analysis were performed on these DEGs. Then, functional annotation, Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analysis, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis, and Protein-Protein Interaction (PPI) network analysis were performed on these DEGs.ResultsThe results revealed that for the DSE, WJ, and LP libraries, more than 66, 65, and 71 million clean reads were generated by transcriptome sequencing, respectively. A total of 11,213 genes were identified in the LDM tissue of these pig breeds, of which 7,127 were co-expressed in the muscle tissue of the three samples. In total, 441 and 339 DEGs were identified between DSE vs. WJ and LP vs. DSE in the study, with 254, 193 up-regulated genes and 187, 193 down-regulated genes in DSE compared to WJ and LP. GO analysis and KEGG signaling pathway analysis showed that DEGs are significantly related to contractile fiber, sarcolemma, and dystrophin-associated glycoprotein complex, myofibril, sarcolemma, and myosin II complex, Glycolysis/Gluconeogenesis, Propanoate metabolism, and Pyruvate metabolism, etc. In combination with functional annotation of DEGs, key genes such as ENO3 and JUN were identified by PPI network analysis.DiscussionIn conclusion, the present study revealed key genes including DES, FLNC, PSMD1, PSMD6, PSME4, PSMB4, RPL11, RPL13A, ROS23, RPS29, MYH1, MYL9, MYL12B, TPM1, TPM4, ENO3, PGK1, PKM2, GPI, and the unannotated new gene ENSSSCG00000020769 and related signaling pathways that influence the difference in muscle growth and could provide a theoretical basis for improving pig muscle growth traits in the future.

IntroductionIn 2021, Thailand reported the highest incidence of lumpy skin disease (LSD) outbreaks in Asia. In response to the widespread outbreaks in cattle herds, the government's livestock authorities initiated comprehensive intervention measures, encompassing control strategies and a national vaccination program. Yet, the efficacy of these interventions remained unevaluated. This research sought to assess the nationwide intervention's impact on the incidence of new LSD cases through causal impact analysis.MethodsData on weekly new LSD cases in Thailand from March to September 2021 was analyzed. The Bayesian structural time series (BSTS) analysis was employed to evaluate the causal relationship between new LSD cases in the pre-intervention phase (prior to the vaccination campaign) and the post-intervention phase (following the vaccination campaign). The assessment involved two distinct scenarios, each determined by the estimated effective intervention dates. In both scenarios, a consistent decline in new LSD cases was observed after the mass vaccination initiative, while other control measures such as the restriction of animal movement, insect control, and the enhancement of the active surveillance approach remained operational throughout the pre-intervention and the post-intervention phases.Results and discussionAccording to the relative effect results obtained from scenario A and B, it was observed that the incidence of LSD cases exhibited reductions of 119% (95% Credible interval [CrI]: −121%, −38%) and 78% (95% CrI: −126, −41%), respectively. The BSTS results underscored the significant influence of these interventions, with a Bayesian one-sided tail-area probability of p &lt; 0.05. This model-based study provides insight into the application of BSTS in evaluating the impact of nationwide LSD vaccination based on the national-level data. The present study is groundbreaking in two respects: it is the first study to quantify the causal effects of a mass vaccination intervention on the LSD outbreak in Thailand, and it stands as the only endeavor of its kind in the Asian context. The insights collected from this study hold potential value for policymakers in Thailand and other countries at risk of LSD outbreaks.

The Chinese flowering cherry (Cerasus serrulata), an ornamental tree with established medicinal values, is observed to suffer from leaf blight within Xi’an’s greenbelts. This disease threatens both the plant’s growth and its ornamental appeal. In this study, 26 isolates were obtained from plants with typical leaf blight, and only 3 isolates (XA-10, XA-15, and XA-18) were found to be pathogenic, causing similar symptoms on the leaves of the host plant. Based on sequence alignment, the ITS and LSU sequences of the three selected isolates were consistent, respectively. Following morphological and molecular analyses, the three selected isolates were further identified as Mortierella alpina. The three selected isolates exhibited similar morphological characteristics, including wavy colonies with dense, milky-white aerial mycelia on PDA medium. Therefore, isolate XA-10 was used as a representative strain for subsequent experiments. The representative strain XA-10 was found to exhibit optimal growth at a temperature of 30 °C and a pH of 7.0. Host range infection tests further revealed that the representative strain XA-10 could also inflict comparable disease symptoms on both the leaves and fruits of three different Rosaceae species (Prunus persica, Pyrus bretschneideri, and Prunus salicina). This study reveals, for the first time, the causative agent of leaf blight disease affecting the Chinese flowering cherry. This provides a deeper understanding of the biology and etiology of M. alpina. This study lays a solid foundation for the sustainable control and management of leaf blight disease in the Chinese flowering cherry.

Published: January 2024

This paper introduces a study aimed at understanding informal learning to develop open data literacy. Based on the open datasets and reports published by the Open Knowledge Foundation (OKF) on the globally organised event Open Data Day 2021, we extracted 20 records and applied to them quantitative and thematic analysis. Convergent and diversified patterns of engagement with the Open Data Day across the five continents were observed. On this basis, some formal and particularly, informal learning activities arise as a collaborative and participatory work of data communities seeking to work with open data. Along the several experiences there is concern about the technical skills to search, find and use Open Data, including data storytelling abilities. However, this set of abilities was not connected with a set of critical and holistic skills, required to promote some of the goals expressed by the ODDs. Overall, integrating formal and informal learning into a situated context should be considered to promote open data literacy.

Dathatons nel mondo: Potenziale per lo sviluppo di una alfabetizzazione ai dati (aperti).
Questo documento introduce uno studio volto a comprendere l’apprendimento informale per sviluppare l’alfabetizzazione dei dati aperti. Sulla base dei set di dati aperti e dei rapporti pubblicati dalla Open Knowledge Foundation (OKF) sull’evento Open Data Day 2021 organizzato a livello globale, abbiamo estratto 20 record e applicato loro analisi quantitative e tematiche. Sono stati osservati modelli di impegno convergenti e diversificati con l’Open Data Day nei cinque continenti. Su queste basi, alcune attività di apprendimento formale e in particolare informale nascono come lavoro collaborativo e partecipativo delle comunità di dati che cercano di lavorare con i dati aperti. Lungo le diverse esperienze c’è preoccupazione per le capacità tecniche per cercare, trovare e utilizzare gli Open Data, comprese le capacità di data storytelling. Tuttavia, questo insieme di abilità non era connesso con un insieme di abilità critiche e olistiche, necessarie per promuovere alcuni degli obiettivi espressi dagli ODD. Nel complesso, l’integrazione dell’apprendimento formale e informale in un contesto situato dovrebbe essere presa in considerazione per promuovere l’alfabetizzazione dei dati aperti.

The article examines the peculiarities of socio-psychological support in the educational process of children resettled from the war zone in Ukraine. The purpose of the article is to diagnose the peculiarities of the development of adaptive potential of children resettled from the war zone as one of the main stages of social and psychological support in the educational process of this category of children. Based on the results of diagnostics, it was established that the levels of development of adaptive potential of most children resettled from the war zone are within the normal range. Most difficulties faced by students resettled from the war zone are related to their assimilation of educational material, which, in turn, is caused by their insufficient social adaptation to new living and learning conditions. The article provides recommendations for school specialists who provide social and psychological support in the educational process of students resettled from the war zone to improve their emotional comfort and academic success.

Sostegno sociale e psicologico nel processo educativo dei bambini reinsediati dalla zona di guerra in Ucraina.
L’articolo esamina le peculiarità del sostegno socio-psicologico nel processo educativo dei bambini reinsediati dalle zone di guerra in Ucraina. Lo scopo dell’articolo è diagnosticare le peculiarità dello sviluppo del potenziale adattivo dei bambini reinsediati dalla zona di guerra come una delle fasi principali del supporto sociale e psicologico nel processo educativo di questa categoria di bambini. Sulla base dei risultati della diagnostica, è stato stabilito che i livelli di sviluppo del potenziale adattivo della maggior parte dei bambini reinsediati dalla zona di guerra rientrano nell’intervallo normale. La stragrande maggioranza delle difficoltà incontrate dagli studenti reinsediati dalla zona di guerra sono legate all’assimilazione del materiale didattico, che, a sua volta, è causata dal loro insufficiente adattamento sociale alle nuove condizioni di vita e di apprendimento. L’articolo fornisce raccomandazioni agli specialisti scolastici che forniscono sostegno sociale e psicologico nel processo educativo degli studenti reinsediati dalla zona di guerra per migliorare il loro comfort emotivo e il successo accademico.

Authors: Montanari Mirca 
Published: January 2024

Assuming crucial relevance in today’s global landscape, characterized by contrasts and tensions, the perspective of peace education fosters the development of non-violent communication skills, constructive conflict resolution, and the promotion of equality and justice from an inclusive attitude. By assimilating these principles into educational processes, it is possible to form individuals who are bearers of a humanistic vision based on awareness, understanding, and the promotion of collective well-being. In this contribution, some educational paths are illustrated that translate the educational orientation to peace as a tool to develop not only knowledge but also the skills and attitudes necessary to face personal and global challenges in a measured and respectful manner. These project exemplars highlight the potential of peace education in shaping citizens who are creators of scenarios of democracy and participation, empowering them to become mediators of change and creators of non-violent and inclusive relations.

Promuovere l’educazione alla pace come pratica di prevenzione inclusiva nella Scuola dell’Infanzia e Primaria.
Nell’assumere una rilevanza cruciale nell’attuale panorama globale, caratterizzato da contrasti e da tensioni, la prospettiva dell’educazione alla pace favorisce lo sviluppo di capacità di comunicazione non violenta, di risoluzione costruttiva dei conflitti e di promozione dell’uguaglianza e della giustizia, in ottica inclusiva. Mediante l’assimilazione di tali principi nei processi educativi, è possibile formare individui che siano portatori di una visione umanistica basata sulla consapevolezza, sulla comprensione e sulla promozione del benessere collettivo. Nel presente contributo vengono illustrati alcuni percorsi didattici che traducono l’orientamento educativo alla pace come strumento teso a sviluppare non solo le conoscenze, ma anche le competenze e gli atteggiamenti necessari per affrontare le sfide, sia personali che globali, in modo misurato e rispettoso. Tali esemplificazioni progettuali evidenziano il potenziale dell’educazione alla pace nel formare cittadini artefici di scenari di democrazia e di partecipazione, abilitandoli a diventare mediatori di cambiamento e creatori di relazioni non violente e inclusive.

Objective: Drug administration errors stand out as the most frequently reported critical events during anesthesia. The occurrence of side effects due to drug administration and errors in anesthesia management can result in significant morbidity, mortality, and an extended duration of hospitalization. This study aimed to examine the frequency and severity of perioperative drug administration errors and the associated side effects during anesthesia.
Material and Methods: This prospective observational study was conducted at the Turkish Health Sciences University xxx Anesthesiologists who were uninformed about the study were observed by a different anesthesiologist in 225 different operations in terms of medical errors. Errors in the preparation, management, monitoring, and documentation stages and drug side effects were recorded.
Results: Perioperative medical errors were observed in 68% of the operations, and errors occurred at a rate of 30.2% at the preparation stage, 16.4% at the monitoring stage, and 40.8% at the documentation stage. Drug administration error was found at a rate of 12% at the management stage. Drug side effects were observed in 24% of the patients, and the drug that most often caused side effects was thiopental (8.4%). The number of perioperative errors (2.15 ± 1.27) in patients who underwent general anesthesia was found to be significantly higher than that in patients who underwent neuraxial anesthesia and sedoanalgesia (number of errors = 1.58 ± 0.97 and 1.85 ± 0.55, respectively) (p = 0.025). In addition, the incidence of side effects (29.7%) in patients who underwent general anesthesia was found to be significantly higher than that in patients who underwent neuraxial anesthesia and sedoanalgesia (14.8% and 25.0%, respectively) (p = 0.049).
Conclusion: In this study, we observed a higher frequency of perioperative drug administration errors and associated side effects in general anaesthesia patients.
