ABSTRACT
Introduction: COVID-19 is a respiratory tract infection in humans with symptoms of colds, coughs and more serious diseases such as Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) which can even cause death. This virus has a high enough transmission rate so that the community has an important role in breaking the chain of transmission and does not result in new sources of transmission by complying with health protocols. This study aims to determine the relationship between compliance with wearing masks and washing hands with soap on the incidence of COVID-19 in the community in Tanjung Senang Village, Bandar Lampung City in 2021. Methods: Types of quantitative research with case control analytical survey methods and non-probability sampling with purposive sampling techniques. The sample in this study was the community aged 18 years and over in the Tanjung Senang Village, Bandar Lampung City, amounting to 120 people. The study used a questionnaire and observation measuring instrument. Data analysis using chi-square test. Results: There is a significant relationship between adherence to wearing masks on the incidence of COVID-19 (p-value = 0.000) and adherence to washing hands with soap on the incidence of COVID-19 (p-value = 0.000). Discussion: The community needs to get used to complying with the 6M health protocol properly and correctly according to the government's recommendation so as to prevent the spread and reduce the incidence of COVID-19.

ЕТНОПЕДАГОГІЧНІ ХАРАКТЕРИСТИКИ МОДЕЛЕЙ ШКІЛЬНОЇ ОСВІТИ УКРАЇНЦІВ НА ЗАХІДНОУКРАЇНСЬКИХ ЗЕМЛЯХ НАПРИКІНЦІ XVIII - НА ПОЧАТКУ ХХ СТОЛІТТЯ

У даній статті нами було розглянуто етнопедагогічні характеристики моделей та змісту шкільної освіти українців на західноукраїнських землях наприкінці XVIII – на початку ХХ століття, при чому визначено чотири основні етнопедагогічні індикатори розвитку шкільництва та його змісту в досліджуваний період (демографічний, соціально-економічний, етнокультурний, соціально-психологічний), і побудовано три моделі українського шкільництва в Західній Україні в першій половині ХХ століття: точково-фрагментарну (визначається фрагментарним характером створення, функціонування й розвитку українських освітніх закладів у Західній Україні в досліджуваний період; точковим характером функціонування культурно-освітніх установ і закладів, що сприяли розвитку освіти українців), лінійно-фрагментарну (визначається наявністю одного з освітніх ступенів (передовсім, мережі початкових навчальних закладів) у більш чи менш повному представленні по всій території краю, й водночас – функціонуванням окремих освітніх закладів та установ (передовсім, гімназій), що належать до інших освітніх ступенів) та ступенево-фрагментарну (позначена існуванням мережі освітніх закладів та установ усіх наявних у тогочасному суспільстві рівнів освіти (дошкільні, початкові, середні, вищі; приватні і державні освітні заклади; заклади соціальної сфери, як, наприклад, притулки для українських дітей), з одного боку, та знову-таки фрагментарним характером функціонування української мови в межах кожного з освітніх ступенів, що детермінувався наявними в регіоні соціально-політичними, економічними й соціокультурними умовами).
Ми стверджуємо, що саме фрагментарність як основна характеристика народно-педагогічного сегмента у зазначених моделях є дуже важливим показником, оскільки за весь час свого функціонування в умовах різного типу окупації українське шкільництво не могло набути ознак завершеності, хоча й прагнуло до цього стану, запроваджуючи не лише парафіяльні шкілки й народні школи, але й вищі заклади освіти.

Published: January 2023

Introduction: The fungal priority pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans causes cryptococcal meningoencephalitis in immunocompromised individuals and leads to hundreds of thousands of deaths per year. The undesirable side effects of existing treatments, the need for long application times to prevent the disease from recurring, the lack of resources for these treatment methods to spread over all continents necessitate the search for new treatment methods.Methods: Genome-scale models have been shown to be valuable in studying the metabolism of many organisms. Here we present the first genome-scale metabolic model for C. neoformans, iCryptococcus. This comprehensive model consists of 1,270 reactions, 1,143 metabolites, 649 genes, and eight compartments. The model was validated, proving accurate when predicting the capability of utilizing different carbon and nitrogen sources and growth rate in comparison to experimental data.Results and Discussion: The compatibility of the in silico Cryptococcus metabolism under infection conditions was assessed. The steroid and amino acid metabolisms found in the essentiality analyses have the potential to be drug targets for the therapeutic strategies to be developed against Cryptococcus species. iCryptococcus model can be applied to explore new targets for antifungal drugs along with essential gene, metabolite and reaction analyses and provides a promising platform for elucidation of pathogen metabolism.

ObjectiveProbiotics may offer cancer-prevention benefits, based on experimental investigation results. This study aimed to determine the potential association between probiotics and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patients with hepatitis B-related cirrhosis (HBC) receiving antiviral therapy.DesignThis retrospective study included 1267 patients with HBC treated with entecavir or tenofovir between January 2013 and December 2017. The risk of developing HCC was compared between two cohorts of 449 probiotic users (taking a cumulative defined daily doses [cDDD] of ≥ 28) and 818 non-probiotic users (&lt; 28 cDDD). To eliminate the bias caused by confounding factors, propensity score matching (PSM) was used.ResultsOn multivariate regression analysis, probiotic consumption was an independent protective factor for HCC occurrence. After PSM, the incidence of HCC was significantly lower in the probiotic users than that in the nonusers (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR]: 0.70, 95% confidence interval: 0.59–0.83, P &lt; 0.001). The aHRs for probiotics with 28–89, 90–180, and &gt;180 cDDD were 0.58, 0.28, and 0.12, respectively, indicating a dose-response pattern. In 28–89, 90–180, and &gt;180 cDDD, the 3-year cumulative incidence of HCC was 8.7%, 4.7%, and 3.0%, respectively. A multivariate stratified analysis confirmed that the administration of probiotics could help patients.ConclusionAdjuvant probiotic therapy may reduce the risk of HCC in patients receiving antiviral medication for HBC. However, further clinical research is required to confirm these findings.

IntroductionStanford type A aortic dissection (TAAD) is one of the lethal macrovascular diseases caused by the invasion of blood into the media layer of ascending aortic wall. Inflammation, smooth muscle dysfunction, and extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation were regarded as the major pathology in affected tissue. However, the expression pattern and its regulation especially through circular RNAs (circRNAs) as an overall characteristic of TAAD molecular pathology remain unclear.MethodsWe employed CIRCexplorer2 to identify circRNAs based on the RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) data of human ascending aortic tissues to systematically assess the role of circRNA in the massive alterations of gene expression in TAAD aortas. The key circRNAs were determined by LASSO model and functionally annotated by competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNA) network and co-analysis with mRNA profile. The expression level and diagnostic capability of the 4 key circRNAs in peripheral serum were confirmed by real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).ResultsThe 4 key circRNAs, namely circPTGR1 (chr9:114341075-114348445[−]), circNOX4 (chr11:89069012-89106660[−]), circAMN1 (chr12:31854796-31862359[−]) and circUSP3 (chr15:63845913-63855207[+]), demonstrated a high power to discriminate between TAAD and control tissues, suggesting that these molecules stand for a major difference between the tissues at gene regulation level. Functionally, the ceRNA network of circRNA-miRNA-mRNA predicted by the online databases, combining gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) and cell component prediction, revealed that the identified circRNAs covered all the aspects of primary TAAD pathology, centralized with increasing inflammatory factors and cells, and ECM destruction and loss of vascular inherent cells along with the circRNAs. Importantly, we validated the high concentration and diagnostic capability of the 4 key circRNAs in the peripheral serum in TAAD patients.DiscussionThis study reinforces the vital status of circRNAs in TAAD and the possibility of serving as promising diagnostic biomarkers.

While understanding the long-term slip rate of active normal faults is essential for the comprehensive assessment of seismic activity, it is difficult due to the absence of age control in the erosional bedrock region. The preserved sequence of wave-cut platforms in granite allows exploration of the long-term slip rate in the footwall of some normal faults. We investigated wave-cut platforms in the southern Pearl River Delta (PRD), a coastal delta transected by the seismically active Littoral Fault Zone (LFZ) in the northern South China Sea, to derive slip rates and their impacts on the seismic hazard potential. We mapped a flight of four wave-cut platforms (T1–T4), dated the T2 and T4 platforms by 10Be cosmogenic nuclide dating, and used the absolute age to correlate the un-dated platform to global sea-level highstands. Our results allocate the ages of 128 ka, 197 ka, and 239 ka to the upper three wave-cut platforms and yield temporally various uplift rates ranging from 0.30 to 0.38 mm/a during 239–128 ka to 0.09 mm/a since 128 ka. A decrease in the uplift rate, which coincided with a decreased subsidence rate within the PRD in previous work, implied a weakened differential uplift onshore of the LFZ system. Our findings infer that the transgression event occurred as early as marine isotope stage (MIS) 7 in the PRD, consistent with the view that Pleistocene sedimentation began in MIS 5 or earlier in the PRD.

Extreme-wind events not only cause disasters by themselves but can also trigger sandstorms, resulting in significant social and economic losses. Since recent years have experienced more frequent and severe extreme weather events, it is worth to explore how extreme-wind events response to recent climate change and how they impact the sandstorm variation. This work established two indices, EW90 and EW95, to identify extreme-wind events based on the relation between extreme-wind intensity and local-source sandstorm. EW90 and EW95 extreme-wind indices are defined as the daily maximum wind speeds greater than the 90th and 95th quantiles of local long-term historical records. The spatial distributions of EW90 and EW95 extreme-wind events are similar, which is higher in arid and semi-arid and coastal regions, and lower in southern China. Seasonally, extreme-wind events mainly occur in April and May for most areas over China, while they are more frequent from July to August for humid regions. During 1971–2020, both the EW90 and EW95 extreme-wind speeds and annual frequencies have significant decreasing trend (p &lt; 0.01), while the daily mean wind speed does not decrease significantly. Extreme-wind events do not have significant abrupt change as well, while a turning positive trend after 2003 is found for mean wind speed. Moreover, sandstorm days are highly correlated with the EW90 and EW95 extreme-wind events, with linear and partial correlation coefficients around 0.95 and 0.5, respectively, while they do not have significant correlations with mean wind speed. Therefore, the significant reduction of sandstorms over northern China in the past 50 years is mainly due to the substantially decreasing extreme-wind events.

In the present study, hourly wind direction and speed data from six subregions along the Itacaiúnas River watershed (IRW), Eastern Amazon, are analyzed over a 1-year period. The data are acquired from six hydrometeorological stations located in areas of the IRW with different characteristics of land use and plant cover. Among the stations studied, Serra Leste (mine to pasture transition) stands out, with prevailing winds from the Southeast and the East-Southeast, in addition to higher wind speeds. In contrast, at the Salobo (forest) station, the lowest wind speeds are observed, and this station presents the highest percentage of calm winds (60%) in the series. In the analysis of the daytime (from 6 a.m. to 5 p.m.) and nighttime (from 6 p.m. to 5 a.m.) wind cycles, the breeze and mesoscale circulation system are identified. Predominantly northerly winds are observed acting on the Abadia Farm and IFPA Rural (Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Pará) stations, both during the day and at night, overlapping with the local breeze effects. Daily (24 h) and associated breeze circulation (12 h) cycle frequency signals are identified through wavelet transform analyses of the wind for all stations. The interference from large-scale phenomena, such as the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) and the South Atlantic Convergence Zone (SACZ), which operate in the region, is evident. Finally, the data show that the differences in wind patterns are also due to environmental aspects such as plant cover, land use, and topography.

IntroductionTelepresence robots (TPRs) are the subject of an emerging field of application and research that has recently received attention from various disciplines. Most of the relevant research has been done in computer science, while the interest from psychology and education has been relatively modest. Proximity plays an important role in personal interactions. Although human spatial behavior has been widely studied in social psychology, little attention has been paid to the spatial behavior of humans and TPRs.MethodsThe purpose of this paper is to present the results of a pilot study that investigated a certain aspect of spatial behavior – physical proximity or interpersonal distance – based on four social zones of interpersonal distance that characterize Western culture: intimate, personal, social, and public. The study conducted an experiment involving participants both in person and via TPRs, using the Double 3 TPRs in various simulated situations.ResultsAccording to the findings, when interacting with a TPR, most participants maintained a communication distance of 60 to 160 cm, which is the borderline between personal and social distance, quite similar to normal human-to-human social communication. Status and previous relationship did not play any role in the choice of communication distance, but there were significant gender differences. On average, male participants chose a shorter distance to interact with TPRs compared to female participants. Persons with previous computer gaming experience chose a significantly shorter communication distance compared to persons with no such experience. A little more than half of the participants found the method of communication through TPRs to be pleasant.DiscussionTPR mediated persons might be perceived as “real” when communicating with physically present persons, with similar norms applied as in human-to-human social interactions. Especially in the context of classroom communication, people keep communication distances comparable to far personal or close social distances. These findings suggest that implementation of TPRs in education does not put additional requirements for physical space in classroom.
