Background
Dementia has become the main cause of disability in older adults aged ≥75 years. Cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) is involved in cognitive impairment (CI) and dementia and is a cause of vascular CI (VCI), which is manageable and its onset and progression can be delayed. Simple and effective markers will be beneficial to the early detection and intervention of CI. The aim of this study is to investigate the clinical application value of plasma amyloid β1-42 (Aβ42), phosphorylated tau 181 (p-tau181) and conventional structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) parameters for cognitive impairment (CI) in patients aged ≥75 years.

Methods
We retrospectively selected patients who visited the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University and were clinically diagnosed with or without cognitive dysfunction between May 2018 and November 2021. Plasma indicators (Aβ42 and p-tau181) and conventional structural MRI parameters were collected and analyzed. Multivariate logistic regression and receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve were used to evaluate the diagnostic value.

Results
One hundred and eighty-four subjects were included, including 54 cases in CI group and 130 cases in noncognitive impairment (NCI) groups, respectively. Univariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the percentages of Aβ42+, P-tau 181+, and Aβ42+/P-tau181+ showed no significant difference between the groups of CI and NCI (all P > 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that moderate/severe periventricular WMH (PVWMH) (OR 2.857, (1.365–5.983), P = 0.005), lateral ventricle body index (LVBI) (OR 0.413, (0.243–0.700), P = 0.001), and cortical atrophy (OR 1.304, (1.079−1.575), P = 0.006) were factors associated with CI. The combined model including PVWMH, LVBI, and cortical atrophy to detect CI and NCI showed an area under the ROC curve (AUROC) is 0.782, with the sensitivity and specificity 68.5% and 78.5%, respectively.

Conclusion
For individuals ≥75 years, plasma Aβ42 and P-tau181 might not be associated with cognitive impairment, and MRI parameters, including PVWMH, LVBI and cortical atrophy, are related to CI. The cognitive statuses of people over 75 years old were used as the endpoint event in this study. Therefore, it can be considered that these MRI markers might have more important clinical significance for early assessment and dynamic observation, but more studies are still needed to verify this hypothesis.

Published: June 2023

The study focused on the development and validation of Strategic Intervention Materials (SIMs) to enhance the least mastered skills of Grade 10 Garments Trades students. It covered topics on Sewing Machine Operations, Preparation and Cutting of Materials and Assembling the Blouse and Skirts. The Strategic Intervention Materials were validated by five (5) technical experts.. A 5-point rubric scale and interpretation based on the Standard criteria issued by the Department of Education (DepEd) Bureau of Secondary Education in 2005 was used in rating the materials. Descriptive statistics, particularly frequencies, percentages and means were used in the analysis and interpretation of data. The study was conducted at the Ilocos Norte College of Arts and Trades (INCAT) in Laoag City. This research employed universal sampling. The Grade 10students specializing in Garments Trades of INCAT for the school years 2013-2014, 2014-2015 and 2015-16 were used as respondents for the first phase of the study to analyze their least mastered competencies based on the results of their NC II certification. The sample consisted of 238 students, purely females, who are enrolled in Garments Trade for school years 2013-2014 (73 students), 2014-2015 (100 students) and 2015-2016 (65 students). Results of experts’ validation and evaluation revealed that the guide card, activity card, assessment card, enrichment card and reference card of three SIMs developed were found to be valid. The developed SIMs have met the standards set by DepEd in developing such materials and are valid to enhance students least mastered skills along Garments Trade.

Published: June 2023

Agriculture plays an important role in the Indian economy. India has a dominant position in the production of paddy next to China at the world level. Bihar is one of the major paddy-producing states in India. The present study was conducted in the year 2021-2022 at the Saharsa district of Bihar. A sample of hybrid paddy-growing farmers from six villages was selected purposively. Thus making a sample size of 100. The results showed that the majority of the respondents of the hybrid paddy growers belongs to the medium adoption category.
With agriculture being one of its strongest sectors in the Indian economy, the state also achieves significantly high agricultural production every year. About 80 per cent of the state’s population is employed in agriculture, which is much higher than the corresponding average figure for India as a whole.
Agricultural marketing plays a vital role in the agricultural development of the state which is a pre-requisite for development in other sectors and also for the overall development of the economy of the state. Therefore this paper attempts to analyse the production and marketing system of paddy seeds like marketing channels and marketing problems faced by the farmers in the study area. In this study, it comes out that Bihar is predominantly a Retailer influenced market. The farmer purchases the products at the suggestion of retailers. So, the company should build strong relationships with dealers, which are influenced by more margins, by providing more incentives and more of other benefits.

Sahlbergella singularis is one of the insects that causes the most damage to cocoa trees in Togo. The management of this pest is mainly based on chemical control, with its negative consequences for human health and the environment. In order to find an alternative to the use of synthetic pesticides, the insecticidal and repellent activities of neem oil were tested in vitro on fifth instar larvae and adults of S. singularis. Larvae were collected from a cocoa plot. The fifth instar larvae were separated from the other stages. Some of the larvae were reared in the laboratory until adult emergence. The concentrations of neem oil used were 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2 and 2.5 µl.ml-1. Insecticidal tests were carried out by spraying the solutions directly onto the insects. The repellency test was carried out using the preferential zone method on filter paper. The results showed an increasing mortality rate with increasing concentrations of neem oil for both fifth instar larvae and adults. The calculated LC50’s for larvae and adults were 0.89 and 0.98 µl.ml-1 respectively. Neem oil had a weak repellent effect on both fifth instar larvae and adults, with average repellency rates of 23.60% and 28.8% respectively. These results show that neem oil can be an alternative to the use of synthetic pesticides in the control of S. singularis.

Published: June 2023

The nutritional value of plant-based foods, which account for a substantial portion of the diet, is crucial in determining how well all humans grow and develop. The main components of the food are proximate principles, sometimes known as carbohydrates, fats, and proteins; minerals and vitamins make up a very small portion of the diet. The relative concentrations of various ingredients, such as proteins, lipids, vitamins, and minerals, define the quality of food. Data about the sample's quality, such as the quantity of moisture, ash, volatile matter, and fixed carbon, are usefully obtained via proximate analysis in plants. Because bamboo shoots have such important health benefits, the current study concentrated on using them to produce items. The aim was to produce the highest-quality desserts using less expensive ingredients while maintaining a high nutritional profile. The bamboo shoot had relatively highfibre content (24.44%), protein content (3.26%), and a low-fat content (1.46%), energy (244.01 kcal), ash(1.50), and moisture (18.11%) according to its approximate composition. Bamboo murabba Similar mean values for T1 were discovered to have 3.25% protein and 2.48% fibre, followed by mean values for T5 with 3.39% protein and 1.97%fibre. Means for fat percentage were found to be non-significantly different across all treatments. All treatments had a considerable impact on physical traits like thickness, width, and spread factor. The spread factor of the murabba was noticeably reduced as the amount of vegan honey tender bamboo shoots murabba increased. Bamboo shoots, a cheap and easily accessible source, present a fascinating new potential component as a food element, particularly in murabba. When mixed with vegan honey, cinnamon powder, cardamom powder, water, jaggery, lemon, and ginger, physical traits demonstrated characteristics. The sensory analysis conducted for this inquiry demonstrates that the vegan honey tender bamboo shoots murabba was determined to be acceptable.

Published: June 2023

Seed coating is a method of encasing seeds in adhesive materials to improve germination and performance while lowering cost. Seed coating has been widely used in agriculture as an efficient way to reduce biotic and abiotic stressors, hence boosting crop growth, productivity, and health, in order to satisfy the demands of the development of precision agriculture. Plant-beneficial microorganisms include Trichoderma, rhizobium, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungusfungi and plant growth-promoting bacteria. Fungicide seed treatment is easy, affordable, and efficient. Additionally, it is well known that the selection of chemicals for seed treatment also has a favourable impact on seed viability and vigour during germination storage. Seed coating polymers are utilised in conjunction with active components like fungicides and insecticides. A new era of biocontrol techniques has recently begun. By utilising hostile microbes to fight seed-borne illnesses, new technology is being developed. Beneficial fungus like Trichoderma harzianum and Trichoderma viride are among the bioagents most powerful and efficient fungus- and soil-borne pathogen suppressants such as seedling blight, collar rot, stem rot, root rot, dry root rot, and their use may can effectively manage each of these illnesses, and thus encourage crop growth and yield.

Published: June 2023

Background: Ideal requirement of an intracanal medicament is that it should have an antibacterial action for the success of endodontic procedures. The "golden standard" intracanal medication is calcium hydroxide, but it still has drawbacks like internal root resorption. The search for an ideal intracanal medication that works well is an ongoing process that is still unsuccessful. In this pilot study, we attempted to search for new materials by drawing motivation from the earlier time. Ayurveda, started in India 3000 years back. Since many herbal products have demonstrated antibacterial, antiseptic, and analgesic properties, there has been renewed interest in them in recent years.
Aim: To compare in-vitro, the antibacterial efficacy of a combination of herbal extracts i.e nutmeg + aloe vera, nutmeg + neem and nutmeg + distilled water with calcium hydroxide as an intracanal medicament on Enterococcus faecalis.
Materials and Methods: The ATCC strain 29212 of the bacterium E. faecalis was used in the study. Mueller Hinton agar plate was vaccinated with E. faecalis. The herbal extract mixtures were pipetted into the agar wells on this agar plate, which had four wells with diameters ranging from 8 to 10 millimeters. After using calcium hydroxide as a control, which is the gold standard for intracanal medication, the plate was incubated. The width of the restraint zones around every one of the wells were estimated physically after hatching for 48 hrs.
Results: The highest zone of inhibition was seen around the wells containing Nutmeg and its combinations. Nutmeg showed better antibacterial efficacy when compared to calcium hydroxide.
Conclusion: Nutmeg shows promising results for its use as an antibacterial intracanal medicament.

ImportanceThe opioid crisis disproportionately affects Medicaid enrollees, yet little systematic evidence exists regarding how prevalence of and health care utilization for opioid use disorder (OUD) vary across geographical areas.ObjectivesTo characterize state- and county-level variation in claims-based prevalence of OUD and rates of medication treatment for OUD and OUD-related nonfatal overdose among Medicaid enrollees.Design, Setting, and ParticipantsThis cross-sectional study used data from the Transformed Medicaid Statistical Information System Analytic Files from January 1, 2016, to December 31, 2018. Participants were Medicaid enrollees with or without OUD in 46 states; Washington, DC; and Puerto Rico who were aged 18 to 64 years and not dually enrolled in Medicare. The analysis was conducted between September 2022 and April 2023.ExposureCalendar-year OUD prevalence.Main Outcomes and MeasuresThe main outcomes were claims-based measures of OUD prevalence and rates of medication treatment for OUD and opioid-related nonfatal overdose. Individual records were aggregated at the state and county level, and variation was assessed within and across states.ResultsOf the 76 390 817 Medicaid enrollee-year observations included in our study (mean [SD] enrollee age, 36.5 [1.6] years; 59.0% female), 2 280 272 (3.0%) had a claims-based OUD (mean [SD] age, 38.9 [3.6] years; 51.4% female). Of enrollees with OUD, 41.2% were eligible due to Medicaid expansion, 46.4% had other substance use disorders, 55.8% had mental health conditions, 55.2% had claims indicating some form of OUD medication, and 5.8% had claims indicating an overdose during a calendar year. Claims-based outcomes exhibited substantial variation across states: OUD prevalence ranged from 0.6% in Arkansas and Puerto Rico to 9.7% in Maryland, rates of OUD medication treatment ranged from 17.7% in Kansas to 82.8% in Maine, and rates of overdose ranged from 0.3% in Mississippi to 10.5% in Illinois. Pronounced variation was also found within states (eg, OUD prevalence in Maryland ranged from 2.2% in Prince George’s County to 21.6% in Cecil County).Conclusions and RelevanceIn this cross-sectional study of Medicaid enrollees from 2016 to 2018, claims-based prevalence of OUD and rates of OUD medication treatment and opioid-related overdose varied substantially across and within states. Further research appears to be needed to identify important factors influencing this variation.

ImportanceThe 2021 Expanded Child Tax Credit (ECTC) provided families with children monthly payments from July 2021 to December 2021. The association of this policy with adult health is understudied.ObjectiveTo examine changes in adult self-reported health and household food security before and during ECTC monthly payments.Design, Setting, and ParticipantsThis repeated cross-sectional study used multivariable regression with a difference-in-differences estimator to assess adult health and food security for 39 479 respondents to the National Health Interview Survey (January 2019 to December 2021) before vs during monthly payments. Analyses were stratified by income to focus on low-income vs middle-income and upper-income households.ExposureEligibility for ECTC monthly payments from July 2021 to December 2021.Main Outcomes and MeasuresOverall self-reported adult health and household food security as binary outcomes (excellent or very good health vs good, fair, or poor health; food secure vs food insecure).ResultsIn this nationally representative cross-sectional study of 39 479 US adults (mean [SD] age, 41.0 [13.0] years; 7234 [21.7%] Hispanic, 321 [0.9%] non-Hispanic American Indian/Alaska Native, 2205 [5.7%] non-Hispanic Asian, 5113 [13.7%] non-Hispanic Black, and 23 704 [55.8%] White individuals), respondents were predominantly female (21 511 [52.4%]), employed (33 035 [86.7%]), and married (19 838 [55.7%]). Before disbursement of ECTC monthly payments, 7633 ECTC-eligible adults (60.1%) reported excellent or very good health, and 10 950 (87.8%) reported having food security. Among ECTC-ineligible adults, 10 778 (54.9%) reported excellent or very good health and 17 839 (89.1%) reported food security. Following disbursement of monthly payments, ECTC-eligible adults experienced a 3.0 percentage point (pp) greater adjusted increase (95% CI, 0.2-5.7) in the probability of reporting excellent or very good health compared with ECTC-ineligible adults. Additionally, ECTC-eligible adults experienced a 1.9 pp greater adjusted increase (95% CI, 0.1-3.7) in the probability of food security than ECTC-ineligible adults. In income-stratified analyses, the association between ECTC eligibility and overall health was concentrated among middle-income and upper-income households (3.7-pp increase in excellent or very good health; 95% CI, 0.5-6.9). Conversely, the association between ECTC eligibility and food security was concentrated among low-income adults (3.9-pp increase in food security; 95% CI, 0-7.9).Conclusions and RelevanceThe results of this cross-sectional study suggest that monthly ECTC payments were associated with improved adult overall health and food security. Cash transfer programs may be effective tools in improving adult health and household nutrition.

Published: June 2023

ImportanceA cancer diagnosis and treatment may result in highly traumatic periods with lasting psychological consequences for children, adolescent, and young adult patients with cancer (CYACs). Early identification and management may prevent long-term psychological morbidity and suicide.ObjectiveTo analyze risk, severity, and risk factors for depression, anxiety, psychotic disorders, and suicide in CYACs and noncancer comparators.Data SourcesLiterature search of PubMed, MEDLINE, Embase, PsycINFO, CINAHL, and PubMed Central from January 1, 2000, to November 18, 2022.Study SelectionFull-length articles in peer-reviewed journals that measured and reported risk and/or severity of depression, anxiety, psychotic disorders, and suicide mortality in CYACs and a noncancer comparator group.Data Extraction and SynthesisPreferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) reporting guidelines were followed with prospective PROSPERO registration.Main Outcomes and MeasuresRisk ratios (RRs) were used for dichotomous outcomes, and standardized mean differences (SMDs) were used for continuous outcomes. SMDs were defined as follows: 0.2, small; 0.5, medium; and 0.8, large. Sources of heterogeneity and risk factors were investigated using sensitivity, subgroup, and meta-regression analyses.ResultsFrom 7319 records, 52 studies were included. Meta-analyses revealed that CYACs were at increased lifetime risk of severe symptoms or a disorder of depression (RR, 1.57; 95% CI, 1.29-1.92), anxiety (RR, 1.29; 95% CI, 1.14-1.47), and psychotic disorders (RR, 1.56; 95% CI, 1.36-1.80) relative to both matched controls and their siblings. Overall suicide mortality was not significantly elevated (RR, 1.63; 95% CI, 0.78-3.40). The mean severity of depression was found to be elevated in CYACs receiving treatment (SMD, 0.44; 95% CI, 0.13-0.74) and long-term survivors (SMD, 0.18; 95% CI, 0.02-0.33). The mean severity of anxiety was found to be elevated only during treatment (SMD, 0.16; 95% CI, 0.03-0.20).Conclusions and RelevanceFindings of this systematic review and meta-analysis suggest that CYACs may experience lasting psychological burden long into survivorship. Timely identification, preventive efforts, and psycho-oncological intervention for psychological comorbidity are recommended.
Restore or rewild? Implementing complementary approaches to bend the curve on biodiversity loss
Authors: Pettorelli Nathalie , Bullock James M. 
Published: June 2023

Abstract

Restoration and rewilding are both relevant conservation approaches to addressing the current nature, health and climate crises. Here, we discuss the benefits of integrating restoration and rewilding in conservation projects.

We highlight how such integration could increase the amount of space available for nature recovery; boost knowledge exchange and raise nature recovery ambitions; enhance landscape heterogeneity and dynamics and improve large‐scale connectivity.

In particular, the two approaches may be deployed to exploit synergisms. We argue that developing a portfolio of integrated approaches that capitalise on the strengths of both restoration and rewilding and target different scales and socio‐ecological contexts is the best way to jointly address the biodiversity and climate crises.

We call for major policy platforms and international funding agencies to support the emergence of infrastructures and frameworks that facilitate the coordination and integration of the restoration and rewilding agendas. Such a step would benefit biodiversity and support broader efforts to integrate different conservation strategies into whole landscape approaches.
