Authors: Chaudhary Bhupinder , Jani Kinjal 
Published: June 2023

Oral health contributes significantly to the quality of life. Oral health behavior comprises awareness, nutritional preferences, and oral hygiene habits. Dental caries and periodontal diseases are the two most commonly prevalent conditions. Behavioral and social interventions are needed to adopt desirable oral health behavior. Before implementing any interventions, there is a need to identify the predictors by using the situation analysis followed by the descriptive study method. This study aimed to provide significant predictors for oral health behavior. : This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in Gujarat. 1000 adults were included in the study. A predesigned, pretested questionnaire was used to get the objective of the study.: Socioeconomic status was significantly associated with oral health behavior. A study found an R-value of- .931&#62;0.4, R square value-.867&#62;0.5, and an adjusted R-value was 866. Cronbach alpha of the study was 0.705. Awareness about tobacco chewing, the impact of oral health on general health, bleeding gums, irregularly placed teeth, brushing habits, direction and time of brushing, brush changing pattern, preference for dentist visit, anxiety, and perceived anxiety for dental treatment were had the causal relationship with latent variables of the oral health variables. : Awareness about risk factors, dental conditions, and treatment-seeking behavior were significantly associated with oral health behavior, whereas attitude failed to affect behavior. Before implementing any new interventions, oral health behavior and socioeconomic status need to address to remove disparities.

Credit Card Lending and the Performance of U.S. Credit Unions
Authors: Boehme Rodney , Craft Timothy , LeCompte Richard 
Published: June 2023

Is credit card lending by credit unions within the United States primarily a service to members or a profit generating product? This paper examines the impact of credit card lending on the performance of U.S. credit unions from 2000-2017. A panel data approach using fixed effects regression methodology is undertaken to make comparative analyses of credit union performance across several dimensions including the percentage of the firm’s assets in credit card loans and percent of members with a credit card. Credit unions are stratified into deciles by size and significant results are found using this methodology. Controlling for delinquencies and charge-offs among other variables, credit card lending significantly increases ROA for both large and small credit unions, but only after the Financial Crisis of 2008, and the establishment of the CARD Act in 2009. Interestingly, the ROA of small credit unions significantly increases with the percentage of members using the institution’s credit card. This result suggests that small credit unions would benefit by increasing the penetration of credit cards within their membership base.

Abstract
Complex metal nanoparticles (NPs) distributed uniformly on supports demonstrate distinctive physicochemical properties and thus attract a wide attention for applications. The commonly used synthesis approaches are the wet chemistry methods, yet they display limitations to achieve the NPs structure design and uniform dispersion simultaneously. Solid synthesis serves as an interesting strategy which can achieve the fabrication of complex metal NPs on supports. Herein, the solid synthesis strategy is developed to precisely synthesize uniformly distributed CoFe@FeOx core@shell NPs via thermal syngas treatment. Fe atoms are preferentially exsolved from CoFe alloy bulk to the surface and then be carburized into a FexC shell under thermal syngas atmosphere, subsequently the formed FexC shell is passivated by air, obtaining CoFe@FeOx with a CoFe alloy core and a FeOx shell. This strategy is universal for the synthesis of MFe@FeOx (M=Co, Ni, Mn). The CoFe@FeOx exhibits bifunctional effect on regulating polysulfides as the separator coating layer for both Li/Na-S batteries. This method could be developed into solid synthetic systems to construct well distributed complex metal NPs.

Abstract
Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are widely used for treating neuropsychiatric disorders. However, the exact mechanism of action and why effects can take several weeks to manifest is not clear. The neuroplasticity hypothesis is supported by preclinical studies, but the evidence in humans is limited. Here, we investigate the effects of the SSRI escitalopram on presynaptic density as a proxy for synaptic plasticity. In a double-blind placebo-controlled study (NCT04239339), 32 healthy participants were randomized to receive daily oral dosing of either 20 mg escitalopram (n = 17) or a placebo (n = 15). After an intervention period of 3-5 weeks, participants underwent a [11C]UCB-J PET scan to quantify synaptic vesicle glycoprotein 2A (SV2A) density in the hippocampus and the neocortex. Group means were compared using t-tests, and effect of intervention duration was assessed with linear models. Whereas there was only a small difference in [11C]UCB-J binding between the escitalopram and placebo groups after an average of 29 (range: 24-38) days of intervention (Cohen’s d of 0.31-0.42, p values > 0.26), we identified time-dependent group effects (neocortex: p = 0.020; hippocampus: p = 0.058). Linear models showed positive associations between [11C]UCB-J binding and duration of escitalopram intervention: pNeocortex = 0.016; pHippocampus = 0.11). Our findings suggest that brain synaptic plasticity evolves over 3-5 weeks in healthy humans following daily intake of escitalopram. This is the first in vivo evidence to support the hypothesis of neuroplasticity as a mechanism of action for SSRIs in humans, and it offers a plausible biological explanation for the delayed treatment response commonly observed in patients treated with SSRIs.
Proliferative Glomerulonephritis with Monoclonal IgG Deposits Caused by Plasmablastic Lymphoma: A Case Report
Authors: renal lingyan , Chen Qi , Qiu Feng-Ping , Jiang Zhen-Yu , Wang Xiao-Yi , Zhang Xiao-Lan , Shi Zhan-Qin 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
Introduction:
As a very rare form of B-cell lymphoma, plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL) typically occurs in patients with underlying immunosuppression, including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), organ transplantation, and autoimmune diseases. For HIV-positive patients, PBL normally originates in the gastrointestinal tract, especially from the oral cavity in most cases. It is extremely rare to find enterocoelial involvement in PBL, and there is no previous work reporting proliferative glomerulonephritis with monoclonal immunoglobulin deposits because of PBL that secretes lambda light chains.
Case presentation:
We report the case of a patient with nephrotic syndrome, renal insufficiency, and multiple swollen lymph nodes. Ascitic fluid cytology revealed high levels of PBL with the restriction of lambda light chains. Besides, a renal biopsy revealed proliferative glomerulonephritis with monoclonal IgG deposits (PGNMID), which could presumably be secondary to lambda-light-chain-secreting PBL. Lambda light chain restriction in the kidney tissue was discovered earlier than in the blood.
Conclusion
The prognosis of patients with PBL is poor. Multimodal treatment with chemotherapy and newer targeted biological agents may be essential for the treatment of PBL. Unfortunately, the patient refused chemotherapy and died.

Published: June 2023

Abstract

Background
We aimed to investigate whether changes in levels of chosen cytokines were associated with contemporaneous changes in cognitive function from before to after chemotherapy, adjusting for baseline characteristics such as body mass index, age, or education years, and changes in anxiety, depression, or fatigue into consideration.
Methods
Adult patients with breast cancer stages I to III without brain metastasis were invited to participate in this longitudinal follow up study. A multidimensional neuropsychological examination was administered at two timepoints evaluating multiple subjective and objective cognitive domains, depression, anxiety, or fatigue before and at least 3 months after chemotherapy, and baseline demographic information. Cytokine levels were taken at the same times. Stepwise multivariate Generalized Linear Mixed Model was used to examine changes in cytokines and associations with changes in cognitive function.
Results
Over a mean interval of 10.5 months Event-based prospective memory (p < 0.001), Word list immediate (p < 0.001) or delayed recall (p = 0.024), and self- perceived cognitive impairment (p = 0.026) significantly improved following chemotherapy. Unit changes in log values of IL-2 (Estimates (SE) = 1.22(0.59), p = 0.04) and IL-12p70 (1.05(0.19), p = 0.03) were positively associated with improvements in Event-based prospective memory over that period.
Discussion
Improvements in Event-based prospective memory were positively associated with changes in IL-2 and IL-12p70. Our finding may not only reduce BC patients’ concerns about chemotherapy-related cognitive adverse effects, but also exhibit the possible roles or interactions of systemic cytokines and inflammation and cognitions.
Crop rotational effects on rhizospheric bacterial community and vascular bacterial wilt disease suppressiveness
Authors: Ghorai Ankit Kumar , Dutta Subrata , Barman Ashis Roy 
Published: June 2023

Abstract
The management of Ralstonia solanacearum, incitant of vascular bacterial wilt (VBW) is still a challenging task due to its high degree of genetic diversity, wide adaptability, inefficacy of antibiotics against it under field conditions and temperature dependent resistance breakdown. The present investigation was aimed to identify suitable crops suppressive to R. solanacearum and assess their potential in developing a promising suppressive crop rotation system. Among the 30 treatments with various crops selected based on survey and farmers’ perspective, significant reduction of VBW incidence was observed in sick plot over initial per cent disease incidence (PDI) in the two years successive crop rotations for maize-maize-brinjal (73.91%) followed by sorghum-maize-brinjal (65%), okra-okra-brinjal (65%), okra-maize-brinjal (57.14%) and maize-okra-brinjal (47.62%). Illumina sequencing of the V3-V4 regions of 16S rDNA sequence of rhizospheric soil DNA showed a trend of increase in population of the phyla Firmicutes and Actinobacteria in the rhizospheric bacterial community of the suppressive crop rotations viz., maize-maize-brinjal (MMB), okra-okra-brinjal (OOB) and sorghum-maize-brinjal (SMB). Increase in the populations of Bacillaceae, Burkhloderiaceae, Paenibacillaceae and Strepotomycetaceae were observed at the family level. Further, presence of various biological control agents of R. solanacearum, viz., Streptomyces sp., Burkholderia-Paraburkholderia sp., Bacillus sp., Paenibacillus sp., Stenotrophomonas sp. and Acinetobacter sp. were increased in the rhizosphere of brinjal at the end of two consecutive years of crop rotations of MMB, OOB and SMB. Thus, maize, okra and sorghum were identified to reduce the inoculum load of the soil borne phytopathogen R. solanacearum in sick soil along with delaying and reducing the severity of the VBW incidence when incorporated in the crop rotations.
Demixing fluorescence time traces transmitted by multimode fibers

Published: June 2023

Abstract

Fiber photometry is a significantly less invasive method compared to other deep brain imaging microendoscopy approaches due to the use of thin multimode fibers (MMF diameter < 500 µm). Nevertheless, the transmitted signals get scrambled upon propagation within the MMF, thus limiting the technique’s potential in resolving temporal readouts with cellular resolution. Here, we demonstrate how to separate the time trace signals of several fluorescent sources probed by a thin (≈ 200 µm) MMF with typical implantable length in a mouse brain. We disentangled several spatio-temporal fluorescence signals by using a general unconstrained non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) algorithm directly on the raw video data. Furthermore, we show that commercial and low-cost open-source miniscopes display enough sensitivity to image the same fluorescence patterns seen in our proof of principle experiment, suggesting that a whole new avenue for novel minimally invasive deep brain studies with multimode fibers in freely-behaving mice is possible.

Abstract

A germinal disc located on egg yolk surface drives genetic modification. Based on eggshells, in ovo incubation such as windowed and surrogate methods have been developed, but these exhibit limited abilities to generate transgenic chickens. Here, we investigated the frequency of observing the germinal disc according to the preincubation positioning direction and time and found that it depended on those conditions, but only a few chicks (2.8-5.6%) hatched using windowed method. Then, we attempted to improve surrogate method via one- or two-step procedures, and all eggs, including surrogates which is 10 g heavier than donor egg, were obtained from a poultry flock of the same age. With the one-step surrogate method (the donor egg is transferred only once into the surrogate egg), the survival rate at day 4 was 30.8%, and the hatching rate was 11.8%. We then established an improved two-step surrogate method: System II is similar with methods previously established, and an unusual second surrogate egg is used in System III. With this method, the survival rate at day 4 was improved by 90.7%, and a hatching rate of 70.0% was obtained. Therefore, the improved surrogate methods established in this study can be effective for in ovo incubation.
