Abstract
We report on 167 infrared (IR) galaxies selected by AKARI and IRAS and detected in the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) Data Release 5 (DR5) sky maps at the 98, 150, and 220 GHz frequency bands. Of these detections, 134 (80%) of the millimeter counterparts are first-time identifications with ACT. We expand the previous ACT extragalactic source catalogs, by including new 98 GHz detections and measurements from ACT DR5. We also report flux density measurements at the 98, 150, and 220 GHz frequency bands. We compute α
98−150, α
98−220, and α
150−220 millimeter-wave spectral indices and far-IR to millimeter-wave spectral indices between 90 μm and 98, 150, and 220 GHz. We specify the galaxy type, based on α
150−220. We combine publicly available multiwavelength data—including ultraviolet, optical, near-IR, mid-IR, far-IR, and the millimeter measurements obtained in this work—and perform spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting with CIGALE. With the radio emission decomposition advantage of CIGALE V2022.0, we identify the origins of the millimeter emissions for 69 galaxies in our sample. Our analysis also shows that millimeter data alone indicates the need for a radio synchrotron component in the SEDs that are produced by active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and/or star formation. We present SEDs and measured physical properties of these galaxies, such as the dust luminosity, AGN luminosity, the total IR luminosity, and the ratio of the IR and radio luminosity. We quantify the relationships between the total IR luminosity and the millimeter-band luminosities, which can be used in the absence of SED analysis.

Adhesive capsulitis causes adaptive shortening of the non-contractile structures around the shoulder joint which may affect the distraction distance or joint space width (JSW) between the glenoid and humeral head. Joint traction is a commonly used manual therapy technique to reduce pain and gain range of motion in patients with adhesive capsulitis. However, changes in JSW with manual traction are not objectively assessed. This study aimed to find differences in shoulder JSW with different grades of traction and made comparisons between the affected and the unaffected side using 2D fluoroscopy. Forty-one subjects (24 males, 17 females; age 53.9±7.9 years) diagnosed with adhesive capsulitis with low to moderate joint irritability were included. Their mean duration of symptoms was 5.25±1.7 months. True anteroposterior view images of the shoulder were taken with the patient in a supine position with their arms held at 75° of abduction. Images of the affected and unaffected side were taken while no traction, grade 2 and grade 3 manual traction were applied. The JSW was determined as the linear distance between the articular surfaces. Repeated measures ANOVA with post hoc testing was used for analysing differences across the sides (affected and unaffected side) and conditions (No, grade 2 and grade 3 traction). There was no significant interaction between conditions and sides (P=0.99). Averaged across sides, the JSW with grade 2 or 3 traction was 0.18 and 0.23 mm more than the no traction condition (P=0.013 and P=0.001, respectively). There were no differences in the JSW with grade 2 or 3 traction. Averaged across the conditions, the JSW on the unaffected side was 0.21 mm more than the affected side (P=0.03). The study demonstrates that adhesive capsulitis causes a reduction in JSW at 75° abducted position and grade 2 or 3 manual traction can significantly increase this JSW.

Published: March 2023

Abstract
Complement receptor type 2 (CR2) is an important membrane molecule expressed on B cells and follicular dendritic cells. Human CR2 has been shown to play a critical role in bridging the innate complement-mediated immune response with adaptive immunity by binding complement component 3d (C3d). However, the chicken CR2 (chCR2) gene has not been identified or characterized. In this study, unannotated genes that contain short consensus repeat (SCR) domains were analyzed based on RNA sequencing data for chicken bursa lymphocytes, and a gene with &gt;80% homology to CR2 from other bird species was obtained. The gene consisted of 370 aa and was much smaller than the human CR2 gene because 10–11 SCRs were missing. The gene was then demonstrated as a chCR2 that exhibited high binding activity to chicken C3d. Further studies revealed that chCR2 interacts with chicken C3d through a binding site in its SCR1–4 region. An anti-chCR2 mAb that recognizes the epitope 258CKEISCVFPEVQ269 was prepared. Based on the anti-chCR2 mAb, the flow cytometry and confocal laser scanning microscopy experiments confirmed that chCR2 was expressed on the surface of bursal B lymphocytes and DT40 cells. Immunohistochemistry and quantitative PCR analyses further indicated that chCR2 is predominantly expressed in the spleen, bursa, and thymus, as well as in PBLs. Additionally, the expression of chCR2 varied according to the infectious bursal disease virus infection status. Collectively, this study identified and characterized chCR2 as a distinct immunological marker in chicken B cells.

ABSTRACT.
Lumbar puncture (LP) and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) diagnostics are critical for evaluating central nervous system infections but are often not conducted, resulting in the “Tap Gap.” To investigate patient, provider, and health systems factors contributing to the Tap Gap in Zambia, we conducted focus group discussions with adult caregivers of hospitalized inpatients and in-depth interviews with nurses, clinicians, pharmacy workers, and laboratory staff. Transcripts were independently thematically categorized by two investigators using inductive coding. We identified seven patient-related factors: 1) alternative understandings of CSF; 2) alternative information about LPs, including misinformation; 3) mistrust of doctors; 4) consent delays; 5) fear of blame; 6) peer pressure against consent; and 7) association between LP and stigmatized conditions. Four clinician-related factors were identified: 1) limited LP knowledge and expertise, 2) time constraints, 3) delays in LP requests by clinicians, and 4) fear of blame for bad outcomes. Finally, five health systems-related factors were identified: 1) supply shortages, 2) constrained access to neuroimaging, 3) laboratory factors, 4) availability of antimicrobial medications, and 5) cost barriers. Efforts to improve LP uptake must incorporate interventions to increase patient/proxy willingness to consent and improve clinician LP competencies while addressing both upstream and downstream health system factors. Key upstream factors include inconsistently available consumables for performing LPs and lack of neuroimaging. Critical downstream factors include laboratory services that offer poor availability, reliability, and/or timeliness of CSF diagnostics and the reality that medications needed to treat diagnosed infections are often unavailable unless the family has resources to purchase privately.

ABSTRACT.
Observational studies have linked early-life antibiotic exposure to increased risk of obesity in children in high income settings. We evaluated whether neonatal antibiotic exposure led to changes in infant growth at 6 months of age in Burkina Faso. Neonates aged 8 to 27 days of age who weighed at least 2,500 g at the time of enrollment were randomized in a 1:1 fashion to a single oral 20-mg/kg dose of azithromycin or equivalent volume of placebo from April 2019 through December 2020. Weight, length, and mid-upper-arm circumference (MUAC) were measured at baseline and 6 months of age. Growth outcomes, including weight gain in grams per day, length change in millimeters per day, and changes in weight-for-age Z-score (WAZ), weight-for-length Z-score (WLZ), length-for-age Z-score (LAZ), and MUAC were compared among neonates randomized to azithromycin compared with placebo. Among 21,832 neonates enrolled in the trial, median age at enrollment was 11 days, and 50% were female. We found no evidence of a difference in weight gain (mean difference −0.009 g/day, 95% confidence interval [CI]: −0.16 to 0.14, P = 0.90), length change (mean difference 0.003 mm/day, 95% CI: −0.002 to 0.007, P = 0.23), or WAZ (mean difference −0.005 SD, 95% CI: −0.03 to 0.02, P = 0.72), WLZ (mean difference −0.01 SD, 95% CI: −0.05 to 0.02, P = 0.39), LAZ (mean difference 0.01, 95% CI: −0.02 to 0.04, P = 0.47), or MUAC (mean difference 0.01 cm, 95% CI: −0.02 to 0.04, P = 0.49). These results do not suggest that azithromycin has growth-promoting properties in infants when administered during the neonatal period.

X-Linked Adrenoleukodystrophy: A Heterogeneous Peroxisomal Disorder you Should Not Miss
Authors: Lopes das Neves Pedro , Durães João , Monteiro Isabel , Diogo Luísa , Macário Maria do Carmo 
Published: March 2023

X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD) is a rare peroxisomal disease caused by a mutation in gene ABCD1, impairing peroxisomal b-oxidation of very long-chain fatty acids. It has a heterogeneous clinical presentation that may difficult the diagnosis, with three main phenotypes: an Addison syndrome-like phenotype with adrenal insufficiency; a myeloneuropathic form, which progresses as a spastic paraparesis; a cerebral form with potentially extensive brain demyelination. Females can present with a phenotype resembling the myeloneuropathic form, but with a slow progression. Prompt recognition and diagnosis are essential, as allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation can be offered for the cerebral form of the disease, the phenotype with the worst prognosis.
We present four clinical cases of patients followed in our neurometabolic reference centre with X-ALD, highlighting different clinical presentations, diagnostic workup, management and possible clues for the diagnosis.

Investigation of Some Metabolic Enzyme Activities in Samples of Serum and Humor Aqueous of Cataract Cases with Pseudoexfoliation Syndrome
Authors: ÇALIŞKAN Büşra , AKSOY Mine , ÖZASLAN Muhammet Serhat , AKYOL SALMAN İlknur 
Published: March 2023

Objective: Pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PEX) occurs as a result of aggregation of extracellular matrix material in ocular tissues and visceral organs and it is known as a systemic disease. The purpose of our study is to investigate the activities of carbonic anhydrase (CA), glutathione reductase (GR), aldose reductase (AR), paraoxonase (PON) enzymes in aqueous and serum samples, also serum selenium levels.
Methods: Serum and aqueous samples from 33 PEX and 33 control subjects were collected. Enzyme activities were studied in both serum and aqueous samples by biochemical methods.
Results: According to the results, serum CA hydratase enzyme activity levels were higher in the samples with PEX compared to the control samples (p < 0.05). Aqueous CA hydratase and aqueous/serum PON, GR and AR activity levels did not differ significantly among the study samples (p > 0.05).
Conclusions: Based on the relationship of carbonic anhydrase with aqueous production and glaucoma, increased CA hydratase activity may help to understand the etiopathogenesis and mechanism of conversion to glaucoma of PEX. In the literature, we did not find a study on activity of CA in aqueous and serum samples in patients with PEX. Therefore, we believe that this study can be a reference.
The Role of Parents in Their Children’s Education
Authors: Okello Millicent 
Published: March 2023

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of parents in their children’s education.
Methodology: The study adopted a desktop research methodology. Desk research refers to secondary data or that which can be collected without fieldwork. Desk research is basically involved in collecting data from existing resources hence it is often considered a low cost technique as compared to field research, as the main cost is involved in executive’s time, telephone charges and directories. Thus, the study relied on already published studies, reports and statistics. This secondary data was easily accessed through the online journals and library.
Findings: The findings revealed that there exists a contextual and methodological gap relating to the role of parents in their children’s education. Preliminary empirical review revealed that education in the premises of a family life, has a double meaning: it must be seen through the perspective of its contribution to the overall child raising up and education, which is crucial to his/her proper formation of children’s personality and further on, his/her preparation for leading an independent life.
Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The Expectancy Value theory and the Ecological Systems theory may be used to anchor future studies on the role of parents in their children’s education. The focus must be put on the family as whole, and the role of children which must be based on their approach and contribution concerning family problems, which should be dealt with, and finally solved by them. Offering education support to children from their parents, concerning issues such as homework, would help

The effects of donepezil on anxiety- and depression-like behaviors in diabetic rats and the role of nitric oxide modulators
Authors: Öz Mehmet , Nurullahoğlu Atalık Kısmet Esra , Aslanlar Durmuş Ali 
Published: March 2023

Aims: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor donepezil on the diabetes-induced anxiety and depression and the role of nitric oxide in these effects.
Methods: Thirty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 2 groups at first; the control group (n=6) and the diabetic group (n=24). The diabetic group divided into four groups, a single dose of streptozotocin was used to induce experimental type 1 diabetes. After 30 days, one group was separated as diabetic control, while the other three received 4 mg/kg p.o. donepezil for 20 days. One of the DON groups was administered 20 mg/kg i.p., L-NAME for 20 days, while the other group was administered 40 mg/kg i.p., L-arginine for 20 days.
Results: Anxiety-like behaviors were assessed using the open field test (OFT), and depression-like behaviors were estimated using the forced swim test (FST). In the OFT, all diabetic rats spent less time in the center and engaged in less exploratory behavior than the control group. The number of lines crossed where locomotor activity was assessed did not differ significantly between groups. In the FST, duration of immobility increased significantly in diabetic groups compared to the control. Donepezil administration did not affect either depression or anxiety responses. Moreover, donepezil plus L-arginine increased diabetes-induced depression significantly.
Conclusion: These findings may suggest that cholinergic and nitrergic systems may interact on depression-like behaviors in diabetic rats.
CompLaB v1.0: a scalable pore-scale model for flow, biogeochemistry, microbial metabolism, and biofilm dynamics
Authors: Jung Heewon , Song Hyun-Seob , Meile Christof 
Published: March 2023

Abstract. Microbial activity and chemical reactions in porous media depend on the local conditions at the pore scale and can involve complex feedback with
fluid flow and mass transport. We present a modeling framework that quantitatively accounts for the interactions between the bio(geo)chemical and
physical processes and that can integrate genome-scale microbial metabolic information into a dynamically changing, spatially explicit
representation of environmental conditions. The model couples a lattice Boltzmann implementation of Navier–Stokes (flow) and
advection–diffusion-reaction (mass conservation) equations. Reaction formulations can include both kinetic rate expressions and flux balance
analysis, thereby integrating reactive transport modeling and systems biology. We also show that the use of surrogate models such as neural network
representations of in silico cell models can speed up computations significantly, facilitating applications to complex environmental
systems. Parallelization enables simulations that resolve heterogeneity at multiple scales, and a cellular automaton module provides additional
capabilities to simulate biofilm dynamics. The code thus constitutes a platform suitable for a range of environmental, engineering and –
potentially – medical applications, in particular ones that involve the simulation of microbial dynamics.
Duraklama ve Gerileme Dönemi Osmanlı Siyasetnamelerinde Devletin Hazinesine İlişkin Tespitler
Authors: ENGİN Rıdvan 
Published: March 2023

Siyasetnameler, eski çağlardan beri devlet yönetiminde meydana gelen bozulmalara ve yozlaşmalara yakından tanıklık eden dönemin aydınları tarafından hükümdarlara ve devlet adamlarına arz edilen nasihat niteliğindeki eserlerdir. Bu perspektiften ele alındığında bu türdeki eserlerin yazıldığı dönemin iktisadi, mali, siyasi ve toplumsal yapısını yansıttığı söylenebilir.
Bu çalışmada Osmanlı Devleti’nin duraklama ve gerileme döneminde yazılan bazı siyasetname örnekleri incelenmiştir. Bu çerçevede devlet hazinesinin mevcut durumuna ilişkin yazarların tespitleri ortaya konmuştur. Genel olarak değerlendirildiğinde siyasetname örneklerinde devlet hazinesine ilişkin en çok üzerinde durulan meselenin devletin gelir ve giderleri arasındaki dengesizlik olduğu görülmektedir. Bunun yanı sıra vergi toplamakla görevlendirilen tahsildarların halka kötü davranması, vergi muafiyeti nedeniyle hazine gelirlerinin azalması, maaşlı asker sayısının fazlalığı nedeniyle devlet harcamalarının artması, geçmişte alınan borçların ödenememesi, devlet yönetiminde rüşvetin yaygın olması da ele alınan diğer meseleler arasında yer almaktadır. Ayrıca devlet hazinesinden sorumlu defterdarların adil, dürüst, bilgili, tecrübeli ve dindar kimseler olması gerektiği sıkça vurgulanmaktadır.

Published: March 2023

The purpose of this study is to reveal the meaning and function contained in the nyadran ceremony in relation to religious moderation. The method used in this research is ethnography. The results of the research revealed that the Nyadran Kali tradition is a traditional activity carried out by the community. This tradition is carried out as an expression of gratitude to God and the ancestors for the blessings that have been received by the community in daily life, tradition is used as an activity as a means of creating harmony as a means of paying respect to ancestors. The Nyadran ceremony contains philosophical values related to the implementation of the delegation of services (pattidana) and to maintain the preservation of ancestral customs. There is an educational value considering the moderation in religion contained in the implementation of this tradition. That everyone can always develop a wise attitude or an attitude that has a strong belief in religion is very important, because a person can have the same right to be happy, the right to freely embrace the beliefs he holds and determine a peaceful and happy way of life, without causing suffering. for yourself and for others. Nyadran is an expression of gratitude to God or nature for being given the blessings of prosperity, fertility and abundant springs and the bestowing of services (Patidana), the cultivation of virtue (Dhana) and the implementation of religious moderation that can improve brotherly relations through preserving ancestral traditions (harmony between religious communities.
