PurposeMental wellbeing and life satisfaction play an important role in the development of adolescents, yet factors potentially influencing these states have not been sufficiently studied, especially in Vietnam. This study aims to fill the research gaps by exploring the associations of the parent-child relationship, self-esteem, and resilience on the mental wellbeing and satisfaction with life of adolescents.MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted from June to July 2020 on 1,023 adolescents from 10 to 18 years old living in Vietnam. To assess the satisfaction with life as well as the mental wellbeing of participants, this study used the Satisfaction with life and The World Health Organization-Five Wellbeing Index scale.ResultsMore than 70% of participants reported having conflicts with their parents (74.6% of those conflicted with their father ad 73.9% of those conflicted with their mother), while 26.3% stated dissatisfaction with life. The mean score of mental wellbeing was 61.5 (SD = 23.0). Higher academic performance, self-esteem, resilience, encounter loneliness and isolation within own family, and having support and sharing from family members had a positive effect on life satisfaction and mental wellbeing. Female participants had higher satisfaction with life score (Coef = 0.77; 95%CI = 0.10; 1.44) but they had a lower mental wellbeing score (Coef = −6.00; 95%CI = −8.57; −3.44) than male participants. High school students had lower both satisfaction with life and mental wellbeing scores than secondary students.ConclusionThe results highlight the importance of being aware of the influence that expectations (of higher grades) and bias (toward male children) imposed by parents, teachers, and society on the mental wellbeing of youths, especially in Asian cultures. Strengthening the family bond and encouraging young people to share their feeling is also crucial to enhancing the mental health condition of adolescents.

BackgroundSmartphone addiction (SA) is associated with adverse consequences, especially for freshmen. Evidence indicates that SA is associated with depression, and it is necessary to conduct a longitudinal study to explore the association further.MethodsSA (measured by the Smartphone Addiction Scale-Short Version) and depression (measured by the Zung's Self-Rating Depression Scale) among 1,186 freshmen were surveyed at baseline and a respective 12-month follow-up for each participant. The application of a cross-lagged panel model approach (CLPM) revealed an association between SA and depression after adjusting for demographic variables.ResultsThe CLPM results showed a significant path from baseline SA to follow-up depression (β = 0.08, P &lt; 0.001) and a significant path from baseline depression to follow-up SA (β = 0.08, P &lt; 0.001). Compared with the overall cross-lagged model, the cross-lagged coefficient of the path from baseline SA to follow-up depression increased in the female group (β = 0.10, P = 0.015), and the cross-lagged coefficient of the path from baseline depression to follow-up SA also increased significantly (β = 0.15, P &lt; 0.001). In contrast, the cross-lagged model in the male group showed no predictive effect between SA and depression (P &gt; 0.05).ConclusionsThe current study showed a significant bidirectional association between smartphone addiction and depression among freshmen, but only in the female population.

IntroductionThe food industries play a fundamental role in feeding for the functions of animal metabolism. Fish feed extrusion cooking includes process-independent factors such as temperature (°C), screw speed (RPM), throughput, feed, and moisture content that influence the final product's nutritional value and physical properties. The evidence suggests that the application of hydrolyzed protein flour (HPH) is a crucial step for the techno-functional properties of the product. Therefore, this work aimed to study the effect of hydrolyzed protein meal from silage of trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) on the parameters of the extrusion system and their physical transformations.MethodsIn this study, the influence of hydrolyzed protein meals ranges between 10 and 30% as a substitute for fish meals. The physical properties of the extrudate were monitored, evaluating the hardness, durability, buoyancy, expansion index, and apparent density.ResultsConsistent with this, parameters such as feed composition, screw speed, moisture content, and extrusion process affected the composition and properties of the final product.DiscussionThe physical properties indicated that the hydrolyzed protein flour presented cohesiveness and decreased the mean retention time in the extruder barrel and the specific mechanical energy (SME). Hydrolyzed protein flour during the extrusion process produces pellets with high durability and low hardness due to the high porosity presented, which allows for obtaining nutritional characteristics in the extruded product.

Published: January 2023

BackgroundSupratentorial hemangioblastoma is an extremely rare neoplasm. The aim of this study is to delineate the clinical features among cystic and solid supratentorial hemangioblastoma patients and evaluate the risk factors for progression-free survival (PFS).MethodsWe conducted a literature search in PubMed for histopathologically identified supratentorial hemangioblastoma between 1947 and 2021 and extracted and collected the clinical features of patients treated at our own institute. The rate of PFS was determined using Kaplan–Meier analysis. Differences in categorical factors, such as the location of tumor and diagnosis of von Hippel–Lindau disease, were analyzed using the Pearson χ2 test. A Cox regression analysis was performed to evaluate the association between various variates and survival outcomes.ResultsA total of 237 cases of supratentorial hemangioblastoma were identified from 169 studies. A survival analysis found that patients with cystic tumors had a significantly better prognosis than those with solid tumors (log-rank, p = 0.0122). Cox regression analysis suggested that cystic hemangioblastoma (hazard ratio (HR): 0.186, 95% CI: 0.043–0.803, p &lt; 0.05) and gross total resection (GTR) (HR: 0.126, 95% CI: 0.049–0.323, p &lt; 0.001) were significant predictors of longer survival (PFS) for supratentorial hemangioblastoma. Following an analysis of 13 supratentorial hemangioblastoma cases from our institute, we validated that cystic tumor had improved prognosis than solid tumor (log-rank, p = 0.0096) and GTR was superior to subtotal resection (log-rank, p = 0.0029).ConclusionsCystic hemangioblastoma vs. solid hemangioblastoma may be two tumoral statuses with different clinical features, and a specific treatment strategy should be considered.
Mini-ALPPS-based multidisciplinary treatment leading to long-term survival in a patient with a large HCC: A case report
Authors: Liu Gao-Min , Zhang Yao-Min 
Published: January 2023

BackgroundThe future liver remnant (FLR) induced by stage I associated liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) might be limited due to liver fibrosis/cirrhosis or incomplete liver parenchymal transection.Case presentationA 51-year-old male with hepatitis B liver fibrosis was diagnosed with a large HCC (13.5 cm × 12.5 cm × 13.8 cm). The FLR of the patient was insufficient to permit one-stage tumor resection. Therefore, the two-stage ALPPS surgery was planned. Stage I ALPPS was performed with incomplete liver parenchymal transection due to bleeding (which is why we called it Mini-ALPPS). On postoperative day (POD) 18, CT revealed that the FLR hypertrophy was poor. The FLR/standard liver volume (SLV) had only increased from 22.00% to 34.63%. Salvage transhepatic arterial chemoembolization (TACE) was performed on POD 22 days to control possible tumor progression during the waiting period and to further facilitate FLR growth. About 16 days later, a CT reassessment of FLR revealed a 42.5% FLR/SLV. A right hepatectomy was then uneventfully performed. Although HCC recurred after 586 days, the patient survived for more than 1,920 days after stage II ALPPS.DiscussionDamage control during a difficult conventional stage I ALPPS was important. TACE during the interstage and postoperative periods of this Mini-ALPPS was safe and beneficial. A multidisciplinary based on Mini-ALPPS treatment could provide patients long-term survival; however, Mini-ALPPS should not be selected as the primary solution for such patients today, as some other minimally invasive and effective strategies are available.

Published: January 2023

Objectives: To identify health behavioral profiles for women of reproductive age in Niger.Methods: We interviewed married women of reproductive age in Niger in April 2021 (N = 2,709). Latent class analysis based on sociodemographic and behavioral determinants was used to identify classes of women related to use of antenatal care, facility delivery, and modern family planning (FP) use.Results: We found similar classes between the use of antenatal care and facility-based delivery classes with the first class composed of less educated and poor women with weaker behavioral determinants while the second class was more educated and had stronger behavioral determinants. In the facility-based delivery class was the presence of a third class that was poor and uneducated with low levels of knowledge and social norms, but in contrast had much higher levels of positive attitudes, self-efficacy, and partner communication than the first class. A fourth class of younger, more educated women with strong behavioral determinants emerged related to FP.Conclusion: The application of empirical subgrouping analysis permits an informed approach to targeted interventions and resource allocation for optimizing maternal and reproductive health.
Raspberry Ketone-Mediated Inhibition of Biofilm Formation in Salmonella enterica Typhimurium—An Assessment of the Mechanisms of Action
Authors: Farha Arakkaveettil Kabeer , Sui Zhongquan , Corke Harold 
Published: January 2023

Salmonella enterica is an important foodborne pathogen that causes gastroenteritis and systemic infection in humans and livestock. Salmonella biofilms consist of two major components—amyloid curli and cellulose—which contribute to the prolonged persistence of Salmonella inside the host. Effective agents for inhibiting the formation of biofilms are urgently needed. We investigated the antibiofilm effect of Raspberry Ketone (RK) and its mechanism of action against Salmonella Typhimurium 14028 using the Congo red agar method, Calcofluor staining, crystal violet method, pellicle assay, and the TMT-labeled quantitative proteomic approach. RK suppressed the formation of different types of Salmonella biofilms, including pellicle formation, even at low concentrations (200 µg/mL). Furthermore, at higher concentrations (2 mg/mL), RK exhibited bacteriostatic effects. RK repressed cellulose deposition in Salmonella biofilm through an unknown mechanism. Swimming and swarming motility analyses demonstrated reduced motility in RK-treated S. typhimurium. Proteomics analysis revealed that pathways involved in amyloid curli production, bacterial invasion, flagellar motility, arginine biosynthesis, and carbohydrate metabolism, were targeted by RK to facilitate biofilm inhibition. Consistent with the proteomics data, the expressions of csgB and csgD genes were strongly down-regulated in RK-treated S. typhimurium. These findings clearly demonstrated the Salmonella biofilm inhibition capability of RK, justifying its further study for its efficacy assessment in clinical and industrial settings.

Published: January 2023

Lactobacillus plantarum is a catalase-negative species and distributes in human intestinal tracts. However, the cytoprotective effects of the catalase-activated L. plantarum strain have yet to be exploited against reactive oxygen species (ROS). Here, a catalase-activated L. plantarum CGMCC 6888 (CatA+) was obtained using exogenous added heme. The scavenging free radical abilities of this strain were obviously increased. Moreover, the activated catalase A in L. plantarum CGMCC 6888 endowed the intestinal epithelium NCM460 with lower ROS content after degrading H2O2. In addition, the transcription levels of Nrf2 and Nrf2-related antioxidant enzyme genes (HO-1, GCLC, NQO-1 and TXNRD1) and tight junction protein genes (ZO-1, OCLN, and JAM-1) were upregulated significantly when co-incubated with CGMCC 6888/CatA+. This work confirmed that the catalase A conferred L. plantarum with the strong protection effects in the intestinal epithelial cells against ROS.

Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Infantis is the most prevalent serovar in broilers and broiler meat in the European Union. The aim of our study was to test the biofilm formation and antimicrobial effect of disinfectants on genetically characterized S. Infantis isolates from poultry, food, and humans. For the biofilm formation under various temperature conditions (8 °C, 20 °C, and 28 °C) and incubation times (72 h and 168 h), the crystal violet staining method was used. The evaluation of the in vitro antimicrobial effect of Ecocid® S, ethanol, and hydrogen peroxide was determined using the broth microdilution method. The antibiofilm effect of subinhibitory concentration (1/8 MIC) of disinfectants was then tested on S. Infantis 323/19 strain that had the highest biofilm formation potential. Our results showed that the biofilm formation was strain-specific; however, it was higher at 20 °C and prolonged incubation time. Moreover, strains carrying a pESI plasmid showed higher biofilm formation potential. The antibiofilm potential of disinfectants on S. Infantis 323/19 strain at 20 °C was effective after a shorter incubation time. As shown in our study, more effective precautionary measures should be implemented to ensure biofilm prevention and removal in order to control the S. Infantis occurrence.
Wild Mesocarnivores as Reservoirs of Endoparasites Causing Important Zoonoses and Emerging Bridging Infections across Europe
Authors: Veronesi Fabrizia , Deak Georgiana , Diakou Anastasia 
Published: January 2023

Mesocarnivores are small- or mid-sized carnivore species that display a variety of ecologies and behaviours. In Europe, wild mesocarnivores are represented by the red fox (Vulpes vulpes), the golden jackal (Canis aureus), the European wildcat (Felis silvestris), the Mustelidae of the genera Meles, Martes, Mustela, Lutra, the invasive species of raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides), raccoons (Procyon lotor), and American mink (Neogale vison). These abundant animals thrive in various habitats and often develop their activity close to human settlements. Thus, they may play an important role in the introduction, maintenance, and transmission of major parasitic zoonoses and promote bridging infections with domestic animals. Against this background, this article reports and discusses some of the most important endoparasites of wild mesocarnivores living in Europe, on the basis of their actual role as reservoirs, spreaders, or sentinels. The data derived from epizootiological studies in different European countries, and the proven or speculated implications of the detected endoparasites in human and domestic animals’ health, are discussed. Through older and recent literature review, the state-of-the-art knowledge on the occurrence and prevalence of the parasites under consideration is presented, showing further, warranted investigations and the need for surveillance and vigilance.

Published: January 2023

Aços carbono são amplamente empregados na construção civil, especialmente em estruturas metálicas, sendo este material a principal matéria-prima para confecção de estruturas. Entretanto, uma grande desvantagem da utilização do aço carbono é sua baixa resistência à corrosão o que o torna um material suscetível a processos corrosivos. O efeito inibidor do extrato natural de cascas de bergamota (Citrus reticulata) frente ao processo corrosivo de aço carbono ASTM A36 foi investigado por meio de ensaios de perda de massa de corpos de prova por imersão em meio corrosivo, conjugados com análises de isotermas de adsorção. Resultados demonstram que o extrato de bergamota apresenta considerável ação inibidora de corrosão em aço carbono ASTM A36 em meio ácido (HCl 0,1 mol•L-1). O efeito da temperatura foi avaliado, verificando-se que a eficiência de inibição varia consideravelmente com o aumento da temperatura. A maior eficiência de inibição contra corrosão observada foi de 86 ± 2% em meio ácido, para uma temperatura de ensaio de 30 ºC e concentração de 40g/L de extrato de bergamota. Além disso, as isotermas de adsorção mostraram que a o melhor ajuste foi para a isoterma de Langmuir, cujo coeficiente de correlação linear encontrado foi de 0,998 indicando que o comportamento do extrato obedece a essa isoterma. Assim, os resultados obtidos sugerem que o extrato de bergamota apresenta potencial para ser empregado na proteção contra a corrosão em aço carbono ASTM A36 em meio ácido.

Published: January 2023

Background: Chronic kidney disease combined with coronary artery disease is a growing public health issue. Preoperative renal dysfunction is one of the major risk factors for perioperative morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). This study aimed to analyze the early clinical outcomes of CABG in patients with preoperative renal impairment.
Methods: The study was conducted from July 2017 to July 2019. We included 100 patients who underwent CABG. Group A (n= 50) included patients with preoperative renal impairment and group B (n= 50) had patients with normal renal functions.
Results: The mean age was 63.3±9.1 years in Group A and 57.1±8.5 years in Group B (P<0.001). There were 35 males in Group A and 47 in Group B (P<0.001). Blood transfusion was more in Group A (47 (94%) vs. 32 (64%) patients; P=0.001). There was no difference in mortality between both groups.
Conclusion: Preoperative renal impairment in patients undergoing CABG is more common in elder females. Patients undergoing CABG with preoperative renal impairment could have a higher risk for blood transfusion.
Design of a feedback restoring balanced compliant laparoscopic grasper
Authors: Klok Jan-Willem 
Published: January 2023

<p><em>Objective:</em> In laparoscopic surgery, quality of haptic feedback is reduced compared to conventional surgery, leading to unintentional tissue damage during grasping. From the perspective of haptics, poor mechanical design of laparoscopic instrument joints induces friction and a nonlinear actuation - tip force relation. In this study, a novel laparoscopic grasper using compliant joints and a magnetic balancer is presented, and the reduction in hysteresis and friction is evaluated. <em>Methods & Results:</em> The hysteresis loop of the novel compliant grasper and two conventional laparoscopic graspers (high quality Aesculap and low quality unbranded grasper) were measured. In order to assess quality of haptic feedback, the lowest grasper tip load perceivable by instrument users was measured with the novel and both the conventional laparoscopic graspers. The hysteresis loop measurement yielded a mechanical efficiency of 43% for the novel grasper, compared to- 25% and 23% for the Aesculap and the unbranded grasper, respectively. The forces perceivable by the user through the novel grasper were significantly lower (mean 1.37N, SD 0.44N) than those of conventional graspers (mean 2.15N, SD 0.71N and mean 2.65N, SD 1.20N, respectively). <em>Conclusions:</em> The balanced compliant grasper technology has the ability to improve the quality of haptic feedback compared to conventional laparoscopic graspers. Research is needed to relate these results to soft and delicate tissue grasping in a clinical setting, for which this instrument is intended. </p>
