Abstract

Anguina tritici is the first plant-parasitic nematode described in literature, dating back to the year 1743. It is responsible for causing earcockle (seed gall) and tundu diseases in wheat and rye. Notably, this nematode has been observed to survive in an anhydrobiotic state for up to 32 years within wheat seed galls. These exceptional characteristics have inspired the sequencing of the A. tritici genome. In this study, we present the initial draft genome of A. tritici, obtained using the Illumina MiSeq platform with coverage of 60-fold. The genome is estimated to have a size of 164 Mb and comprises 39,965 protein-coding genes, exhibiting a GC content of 39.1%. The availability of this genome data will serve as a foundation for future functional biological investigations, particularly for genes whose functions remain unknown to this day.
An Approach to Recognise Lung Diseases Using Segmentation and Classification
Authors: Prabakaran J , Selvaraj P 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
Lung cancer is one of the most common causes of death in people worldwide. One of the key procedures for early detection of cancer is segmentation or analysis and classification or assessment of lung images. Radiotherapists have to invest a lot of effort into the manual segmentation of medical images. To solve this issue, early-stage lung cancer is detected using Computed Tomography (CT) scan images. The proposed system for diagnosing lung cancer is divided into two main components: the first part is an analyser component built on the upper layer of the U-shaped Network Transformer (UNT), and the second component is an assessment component built on the upper layer of the self-supervised network, which is used to categorise the output segmentation component as benign or cancerous. The proposed method provides a powerful tool for the early detection and treatment of lung cancer by combining CT scan data with 2D input. Numerous experiments are conducted to improve the analysis and evaluation of the findings. Using the public dataset, both test and training experiments were conducted. New state-of-the-art performances were achieved with experimental results: an analyser accuracy of 96.9% and an assessment accuracy of 96.98%. The proposed approach provides a new powerful tool for leveraging 2D-input CT scan data for early detection and treatment of lung cancer using a variety of methods.

Authors: Chaitanya B , Manjunathachari K 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
This article reports the Modified Microstrip Feed Hybrid Rectangular Dielectric Resonator Antenna (RDRA). The proposed structure has a ground plane with a plus-shaped slot on an FR4 substrate with a height of 1.6 mm and dimensions of 38 mm x 35 mm. The proposed Dielectric resonator antenna is made of a material with 10 as its dielectric constant, and the dimensions of the DR are 19 x 20 x 18 mm3. The DR is connected to a modified microstrip feed with an octagonal ring through the plus-shaped slot in the ground. The proposed structure operates in frequencies from 2.60 GHz - 2.74 GHz, 3.12 GHz - 3.37 GHz, and 4.25 GHz - 4.37 GHz. The resonant frequency of the final proposed RDRA is 2.68 GHz, 3.26 GHz, and 4.31 GHz, which covers WLAN, WIMAX and Wireless Avionics Intra-Communications (WAIC) applications, respectively. The entire structure was simulated using the CST microwave studio. The simulated results agree with the measured results and both are presented. The compact size, stable radiation pattern and reasonable gain make this antenna suitable for the proposed applications.

Abstract

Introduction: To evaluate the clinical suitability of the current facility-based treatment plan protocol in establishing acceptability criteria.

Material and methods: Automated Volumetric Arc Therapy (VMAT) treatment plans were retrospectively evaluated for intact breast and chest-wall cancer patients from January 2021 to January 2023.

Results: A total of 94 patients were planned and treated using automated contouring and VMAT planning technique. The number of patients planned and treated for intact breast and chest-wall were 41 (43.6%) and 53 (56.4%), respectively. The mean intact breast volumes for optimization (Brst_opt) receiving 95% and 105% of the prescribed doses were 92.80% ± 1.11 and 1.54% ± 1.02, respectively. Their corresponding mean chest-wall volumes for optimization (Chst_opt) were 90.65% ± 3.19 and 2.28% ± 2.99, respectively. For left-sided cases, the mean heart dose received was 4.61 Gy ± 1.76 and 5.18 Gy ± 1.55 for intact breast plans and that for chest-wall plans, respectively. The mean ipsilateral lung volume receiving 20 Gy of the prescribed dose was 12.22% ± 3.86 and 13.19% ± 3.74 for intact breast plans and chest-wall plans, respectively. For the Brst_opt and Chst_opt dose metrics were calculated; the mean homogeneity index (HI) was 0.14 ± 0.03 and 0.15 ± 0.04, mean uniformity index (UI) was 1.09 ± 0.03 and 1.11 ± 0.03, and mean conformity index (CI) were 0.92 ± 0.04 and 0.91 ± 0.04, respectively.

Conclusions: The dosimetric evaluation shows a good dose distribution in the target volumes with minimal doses to the organs at risk (OAR). Assessment of the current data affirms the clinical usefulness of the facility-adopted protocol in achieving quality treatment plans for intact breast and chest-wall irradiations. The establishment of plan acceptability criteria will help achieve improved overall treatment outcomes.

ABSTRACTFacies of the Permian Lyons Sandstone are described and interpreted based on analyses of 23 cores from Larimer and Weld counties, Colorado. Here, the Lyons Sandstone consists of very fine- to medium-grained sandstone with minor silt and mudstone interbeds. The unit has five recurrent siliciclastic facies that can be grouped into two facies associations (FA). FA1 consists of (1) high-angle, cross-laminated sandstone (Facies 1; interpreted as eolian dune remnants); (2) low-angle, cross-laminated and horizontally laminated sandstone (Facies 2; interdune); and (3) chaotically bedded to folded sandstone (Facies 3; lower dune flanks). FA2, in contrast, is mainly (4) wavy- to irregularly laminated silty sandstone (Facies 4; wet to damp interdune); and (5) massive to wavy-laminated silt-rich mudstone (Facies 5; ponded water areas between dunes) with minor amounts of high-angle, cross-laminated sandstone (Facies 1) and low-angle, cross-laminated and horizontally laminated sandstone (Facies 2). FA1 is hypothesized to have been produced in an eolian system akin to those that might exist in the dune-dominated portion of an erg, whereas FA2 was deposited in the intermittently wet portion of this eolian system, perhaps along erg margins or in flat dune-adjacent settings that were impacted by the water table. Isopach data suggests that the study area is on the fringe of a larger Lyons system that spans &gt; 100,000 km2, and was deposited close to the Ancestral Rockies—a paleogeography consistent with deposition in erg to erg-margin paleoenvironments. Detrital zircon populations from nearby Colorado Front Range outcrops and from 12 correlative eolian units are dominated by small, well-rounded Paleoproterozoic and Mesoproterozoic grain populations that are remarkably similar between units, signaling a well-mixed system that also received an influx of distally sourced sediment from the Appalachian orogen. Detrital zircon-based maximum depositional ages of the Lyons Sandstone and its equivalents are internally consistent with deposition of the unit during the latest Artinskian to Kungurian.

Published: November 2023

Introduction: Patients (pts) with psoriasis have a greater risk of depression and suicidality than the general population.1 Here, we report Week (Wk)16 and longer-term depression and suicidal ideation and behavior (SIB) data in bimekizumab (BKZ)-treated pts with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.
Procedure/study: The Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ)-9, scored 0–27, measured depression severity monthly to Wk16 (regular intervals during BE BRIGHT open-label extension);2,3 higher scores indicate worse depression. PHQ-9 data were pooled from Wk0–16 of BE VIVID/BE READY (BKZ 320mg every 4 weeks [Q4W] vs. placebo [PBO]);4,5 3-year BE BRIGHT data are also reported.3 An independent Neuropsychiatric Adjudication Committee evaluated potential SIB treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and elevated PHQ-9 scores. Adjudicated SIB (suicide completion/attempt/ideation) incidence/100 pt-years (yrs; PY) was pooled from nine BKZ phase 2/3/3b trials in psoriasis, including up to 5 yrs’ exposure.3–11
Results: At Wk16, mean reduction from baseline in PHQ-9 with BKZ Q4W (N=670) vs. PBO (N=169) was 1.3 vs. 0.3; overall mean Wk16 scores were 1.2 and 2.4 for BKZ and PBO. Low mean BKZ PHQ-9 scores were maintained over 3 yrs of BE BRIGHT following the feeder studies (Wk144: 1.2). At Wk16, 92.9% of BKZ pts scored 0–4 in PHQ-9 (no/minimal depression) vs. 81.1% of PBO pts; 1.3% vs. 6.3% scored ≥10 (moderate–severe depression). Through Wk16, 0.7% BKZ vs. 4.1% PBO pts scored ≥15 (moderately severe–severe) in PHQ-9 at any visit. Over 7,166 PY of BKZ exposure (N=2,480), the rate of adjudicated SIB TEAEs was 0.126/100 PY.
Conclusion: PHQ-9 scores were low through Wk16 and remained low with longer BKZ exposure. The vast majority of BKZ pts had no/minimal depression at Wk16. The long-term incidence rate of adjudicated SIB with BKZ was low and similar to the general psoriasis population (range: 0.09–0.54/100 PY).1,12

Adherence in adult orthodontic settings: Understanding orthodontists’ predictors
Authors: Al Shammary Nawaf Hamad , Alshammari Abdulrahman Khulaif 
Published: November 2023

Objectives:
The objective of this study was to delve into predictors of adherence in adult orthodontic patients as stated by orthodontists in Saudi Arabia.

Material and Methods:
Ninety-one orthodontists from Saudi Arabia completed a questionnaire in relation to the importance and frequency of use of predictors of adherence. In this cross-sectional quantitative and exploratory study, orthodontists were requested to rate the predictors of adherence on a five-point Likert scale. The questionnaire in this study was categorized into four sections such as (1) evaluation – their opinion on the importance of predictor in the assessment of patient adherence, (2) application – scope of use of each predictor in the assessment of adherence in the routine practice, (3) open-ended questions to amass information about other apparent predictors of adherence, and (4) demographics.

Results:
Mixed and variable responses were obtained in terms of the importance and extent of application of predictors in assessing patient adherence. The survey revealed the most important predictors for adherence that included patient’s adherence to appointments and their cooperation in handling dental appliances, and maintenance of oral hygiene. However, in actual practice, orthodontists were frequently implementing factors such as the patient to keep appointments, the patient is observed to be involved in treatment, and the patient is observed to be enthusiastic about treatment. Through the open-ended questions, multiple factors were reported that need to be explored further. However, the remaining factors reported for adherence portrayed varied patterns.

Conclusion:
Predictors of adherence were reported with varying extent of consistency among orthodontists in Saudi Arabia. However, adherence to appointment, co-operation in handling of appliances, and oral hygiene emerged as the most significant factors by the orthodontists for adherence in cases of adult patients.
Idiopathic intracranial hypertension associated with polycystic ovarian syndrome, sensorineural hearing loss, and elevated inflammatory markers that lead to bilateral blindness: A case report with literature review
Authors: Zarei Sara , Kamali Setareh , Narinyan William , Nasouri Farnoush , Hassani Sara , Ibrahim Abdul Mahmoud , Zarei Rojeen , Altamimi Sadiq 
Published: November 2023

Background:
Pseudotumor cerebri (PTC) or idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is characterized by elevated intracranial pressure without hydrocephalus or mass lesion, with normal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) studies and neuroimaging. The exact cause remains uncertain, but potential mechanisms include increased CSF production, impaired CSF absorption, cerebral edema, and abnormal cerebral venous pressure gradients. Patients may present with various accompanying symptoms such as unilateral or bilateral visual obscuration, pulsatile tinnitus, back pain, dizziness, neck pain, blurred vision, cognitive difficulties, radicular pain, and typically intermittent horizontal diplopia.

Case Description:
We report a case of a 32-year-old female who initially presented with chronic headaches and oligomenorrhea, which resulted in the diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) a few years before the initial diagnosis of PTC. Despite receiving maximum medical treatment and undergoing optic nerve sheath fenestration, the patient experienced complete bilateral vision loss. Nearly 5 years later, the patient sought care at our outpatient neurology clinic, presenting with symptoms including tinnitus, left-sided hearing loss, and joint pain with elevated inflammatory markers and headaches. The focus of this research was to discuss the pathophysiology of each of these comorbidities.

Conclusion:
This case report aims to explore the pathophysiological relationships between PTC and concurrent comorbidities, including PCOS, sensorineural hearing loss, empty sella (ES) syndrome, and elevated inflammatory markers. Remarkably, no other PTC case with this unique constellation of concurrent comorbidities have been reported in existing medical literature. The case report underscores the critical importance of early diagnosis of IIH and prompt medical intervention, particularly in patients with PCOS experiencing chronic headaches.
Intracranial parenchymal capillary hemangioma: A case report
Authors: Sasaki Kosuke , Kuge Atsushi , Shimokawa Yu , Yamaki Tetsu , Kondo Rei , Sonoda Yukihiko 
Published: November 2023

Background:
Capillary hemangioma is a rare benign hemangioma that occurs in the soft tissues of the skin, orbit, head, and neck. Intracranial cases, especially intraparenchymal cases, are extremely rare. In this study, we report the course of an intracranial parenchymal capillary hemangioma with left mild motor paresis and involuntary movements of the left upper extremity and was successfully treated by surgical resection, including radiological and pathological examinations.

Case Description:
This is a case of a 60-year-old woman who presented with motor weakness and involuntary movement of the left upper extremity. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed the right frontal hemorrhagic mass lesion without enhancement of contrast medium. Cerebral digital subtraction angiography showed no vascular stain and abnormal arteriovenous shunt. Preoperatively, we diagnosed cavernous hemangioma with a hemorrhagic component located in the right motor cortex. Because this case was symptomatic, we performed a craniotomy and gross total resection of the right frontal lesion. The diagnosis of capillary hemangioma was made by histological examination, including immunohistological study.

Conclusion:
Because intraparenchymal capillary hemangiomas are difficult to diagnose with preoperative imaging, surgical treatment, and histopathological examination are important.

Исследование становления государственности с позиций социальной антропологии, по мнению авторов статьи, дает возможность обосновать тенденции эволюции общественных отношений. Проведен анализ специфики эволюции древнерусской государственности, которая вызывает объективный интерес в настоящее время как повод для формирования определенных идеологических течений, дает возможность проследить зависимость политических отношений от уровня социально-экономической самостоятельности и грамотности населения. Согласно выводам, результат смешения западных и восточных элементов государственности имеет определенные последствия и в современности, несмотря на временную удаленность анализируемых событий.
According to the authors the study of the statehood formation from the social anthropology viewpoint makes it possible to substantiate trends in the evolution of social relations. The analysis of specifics of the evolution of ancient Russian statehood, which is of the objective interest nowadays as a cause for the formation of certain ideological trends, makes it possible to trace the dependence of political relations on the level of socio-economic independence and literacy of the population. The authors conclude that the mixing of Western and Eastern elements of statehood results in certain consequences also in modern times, despite the time remoteness of the analyzed events.
