Published: July 2023

Introducción. El eritema pernio es una condición que se presenta como una reacción anormal a temperaturas bajas, debida a una prolongada vasoconstricción la cual conlleva a una inflamación e hipoxemia de las paredes vasculares; generalmente se presenta en países con climas muy fríos. La enfermedad fue descrita por primera vez por William Tomas en 1894 denominándola como “dermatitis hiemalis”. El mayor número de casos fue reportado durante la segunda guerra mundial. Objetivo. Conocer los principales hallazgos de la evolución clínica y diagnóstico de sabañones, con la finalidad de que sirva de aporte a la comunidad científica médica. Metodología. Se empleó el reporte de caso clínico en relación a Sabañones, mediante la recolección retrospectiva de la información por acceso a la historia clínica por medio de la autorización de la paciente a través del consentimiento informado. Se incluye una revisión bibliográfica para corroborar la información del caso. Resultados. Paciente femenina de 21 años acude a consulta externa de Dermatología en la cual refiere que desde hace 5 años presenta manifestaciones dermatológicas recurrentes en manos y pies, posterior a varios tratamientos que no recuerda, presentó leve mejoría y varios episodios de remisión y exacerbación. Al examen físico presenta máculas violáceas y pápulas eritematosas de 1 mm sobre eritema, distribuidas bilateralmente en falanges distales de dedos de las manos y de los pies, mientras que, en el dorso de manos, en palmas y plantas presenta escasas pápulas eritematosas, algunas de ellas ulceradas. Conclusión. Al ser una enfermedad infrecuente en nuestro medio no suele ser diagnosticada de manera oportuna y por ende es tratada ineficazmente, empeorando así los cuadros clínicos de los pacientes e incluso poniendo en riesgo su vida. Con la presentación de este caso se espera el aporte a la comunidad científica para conocer a mayor profundidad el manejo del pernio.

Published: July 2023

IntroductionSeed production has experienced significant growth in Bangladesh over the last decade, driven by the increasing number of hatcheries. The hatchery segment plays a crucial role in the overall growth and development of aquaculture in the country. Understanding its structure, conduct and performance is essential for assessing its impact on the productivity and profitability of aquaculture farms. However, there is a limited number of methodologically rigorous studies focusing on the hatchery segment in Bangladesh. The study aimed to fill the gap in the exiting literature by conducting a methodologically analysis of the hatchery segment of aquaculture value chain in Bangladesh.MethodsThis study was conducted in seven of the main aquaculture producing districts in southern Bangladesh. A comprehensive structured survey was conducted between May and August 2022 with 66 enterprises, including 42 carp+catfish, 16 tilapia, and 8 crustacean hatcheries.Results and discussionThe major findings and their implications are as follows. (1) The number of hatcheries increased by 15% over the past decade, with a 27% increase in fish hatcheries and a 47% decrease in crustacean hatcheries. (2) Carp and tiger shrimp were the most commonly produced fish and crustacean seeds, contributing 67% and 99% of volume and 66% and 97% of sales value, respectively. (3) The hatcheries were family-owned and operated enterprise, and generated a total 2,491 full time equivalent (FTE) jobs. (4) Hatcheries used 86% of their broodstock annually and replaced them regularly for improving quality and avoiding inbreeding. (5) 18% of hatcheries reported facing diseases and/or water quality problems, but mean economic loss was only 0.71% of seed sales value, which is a low level of loss and waste. (6) Average annual net profit margin was relatively modest, averaging 54% of the gross revenue, which suggests the existence of competitive seed production and marketing. The results showed that the hatchery segment in southern Bangladesh appears to be dynamic, well developed, efficient, and relatively competitive.

BackgroundDouble ovarian stimulation is one of the most used strategies in poor-prognosis patients. There is a high heterogeneity between the studies regarding the execution of this stimulation protocol. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the day on which luteal phase stimulation begins after the first oocyte retrieval affects ovarian response in DuoStim cycles.MethodsThis observational and retrospective study included 541 DuoStim cycles between January 2018 and December 2021 in a private fertility clinic. Patients were assigned to 4 groups according to the timing of the onset of luteal phase stimulation after oocyte retrieval (0-2ndday, 3rdday, 4thday and 5th-6thday). The primary outcome was the number of oocytes retrieved in the luteal phase in each group.ResultsNo differences were found between groups in the number of oocytes collected (5.12 ± 3.56 vs. 5.39 ± 3.74 vs. 5.61 ± 3.94 vs. 5.89 ± 3.92; p=0,6), MII or number of follicles. An increase in the duration of stimulation was found when stimulation started on the 4thday (10.42 ± 2.31 vs. 10.68 ± 2.37 vs. 11.27 ± 2.40 vs. 10.65 ± 2.37 days, p=0,033). A lower number of fertilized oocytes was observed when stimulation began before the fourth day (3.36 ± 2.80 vs. 3.95 ± 2.53 vs. 4.03 ± 2.73 vs. 4.48 ± 3.11; p=0,036). The number of blastocysts was higher when the stimulation started 5-6 days after retrieval (1.82 ± 1.74 vs. 2.13 ± 1.61 vs. 2.33 ± 2.06 vs. 2.91 ± 2.39; p= 0,030).DiscussionThe number of oocytes retrieved does not differ depending on the day that stimulation begins. However, oocytes competence in terms of fertilized oocytes and blastulation, appears to be lower when the second stimulation starts before the fourth day after oocyte retrieval.

IntroductionHyposmia is a common prodrome in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD). This study investigates whether olfactory changes in PD differ according to the degree of olfactory dysfunction and whether there are changes in motor and non-motor symptoms.MethodsThe 129 subjects with PD were divided into two groups: anosmia and non-anosmia. All cases were reassessed within 1–3 years after the initial assessment. The assessment included the MDS-Unified PD Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS), the University of Pennsylvania Smell Identification Test (UPSIT), Beck’s Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II), Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), and equivalence dose of daily levodopa (LEDD). The generalized estimating equation (GEE) model with an exchangeable correlation structure was used to analyze the change in baseline and follow-up tracking and the disparity in change between these two groups.ResultsThe anosmia group was older and had a longer disease duration than the non-anosmia group. There was a significant decrease in UPSIT after follow-up in the non-anosmia group (β = −3.62, p &lt; 0.001) and a significant difference in the change between the two groups (group-by-time effect, β = 4.03, p &lt; 0.001). In the third part of the UPDRS motor scores, there was a tendency to increase the score in the non-anosmia group compared to the anosmia group (group-by-time effect, β = −4.2, p &lt; 0.038). There was no significant difference in the group-by-time effect for UPDRS total score, LEDD, BDI-II, and MoCA scores.DiscussionIn conclusion, this study found that olfactory sensation may still regress in PD with a shorter disease course without anosmia, but it remains stable in the anosmia group. Such a decline in olfaction may not be related to cognitive status but may be associated with motor progression.
A weighted quantile sum regression with penalized weights and two indices
Authors: Renzetti Stefano , Gennings Chris , Calza Stefano 
Published: July 2023

BackgroundNew statistical methodologies were developed in the last decade to face the challenges of estimating the effects of exposure to multiple chemicals. Weighted Quantile Sum (WQS) regression is a recent statistical method that allows estimating a mixture effect associated with a specific health effect and identifying the components that characterize the mixture effect.ObjectivesIn this study, we propose an extension of WQS regression that estimates two mixture effects of chemicals on a health outcome in the same model through the inclusion of two indices, one in the positive direction and one in the negative direction, with the introduction of a penalization term.MethodsTo evaluate the performance of this new model we performed both a simulation study and a real case study where we assessed the effects of nutrients on obesity among adults using the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) data.ResultsThe method showed good performance in estimating both the regression parameter and the weights associated with the single elements when the penalized term was set equal to the magnitude of the Akaike information criterion of the unpenalized WQS regression. The two indices further helped to give a better estimate of the parameters [Positive direction Median Error (PME): 0.022; Negative direction Median Error (NME): −0.044] compared to the standard WQS without the penalization term (PME: −0.227; NME: 0.215). In the case study, WQS with two indices was able to find a significant effect of nutrients on obesity in both directions identifying sodium and magnesium as the main actors in the positive and negative association, respectively.DiscussionThrough this work, we introduced an extension of WQS regression that improved the accuracy of the parameter estimates when considering a mixture of elements that can have both a protective and a harmful effect on the outcome; and the advantage of adding a penalization term when estimating the weights.

Corporal experiences with futsal: dialogues on social intervention, knowledge production and teacher training
Abstract: This article presents an experience report that analyzed the university extension project: “Corporal Experiences with Futsal”. This was developed between 2018 and 2019 in Miracema do Tocantins (Tocantins State, Brazil) with children and adolescents after school hours, under the responsibility of the Physical Education course at the Federal University of Tocantins (UFT). The experience is described and examined based on the narratives of the extension students, on the images and on the public materials of the Project. The results indicate that the actions developed through the articulation of extension with the dimensions of teaching and research proved to be a powerful resource for social intervention in the community, for the production of knowledge and for teacher training in Physical Education. It is considered that there was a strengthening of professional training in Physical Education. This process contextualized what was taught in the “classroom”, directly related to the peculiar problems that cross the local community. Likewise, the unfolding of these themes generated investigations within the scope of the Project with knowledge capable of expanding the students' repertoire and providing feedback to the teaching offered by the institution.

Published: July 2023

La irrupción de la pandemia el año 2020 significó uno de los desafíos educativos más grandes del último tiempo, haciendo más desafiante el anhelo de alcanzar una educación inclusiva. En Chile, las comunidades escolares emprendieron diversas iniciativas para abordar la enseñanza a distancia en un contexto de inequidad social. El presente estudio buscó comprender cómo se desarrolló la agencia docente para la inclusión en una escuela chilena. Se utilizó un diseño mixto de tipo paralelo, utilizando un cuestionario auto reportado por los y las docentes para ahondar en los cambios realizados, y una entrevista grupal para profundizar en la organización de la institución. Dentro de los resultados, destacan acciones que buscaban adaptar lo tradicional al nuevo contexto educativo bajo la idea de llegar a todos los y las estudiantes desde el vínculo emocional. Estos cambios se realizan mayoritariamente entre docentes, basados en relaciones de confianza y contención emocional en ausencia de apoyo institucional. Los resultados presentados contribuyen a ampliar la comprensión de la agencia docente para la inclusión en el marco de la crisis por COVID abriendo preguntas para el abordaje de la temática en el marco de la presencialidad.

Background: Opening and closing of the mouth, biting, and chewing are all sensory-motor tasks that require both jaw and neck muscles to be contracted simultaneously. The postural stability of healthy people can be modified by changes in the position of the jaw.
Objective: To determine the impact of jaw functional status on neck flexor endurance among females and also to determine the association of neck flexion endurance with age and BMI.
Methods: It was a cross-sectional study in which the convenient sampling technique was used. It included 32 healthy females between 18-25 years of age. The study was conducted at the skills Lab of Shalamar School of Allied Health Sciences, Lahore. After consent from participants the neck flexor endurance test was performed in two positions: with the resting jaw (position I), and the jaw clenched maximally (position II) in the supine position. Time was recorded by the stopwatch to see how long the participant was able to maintain in these positions. The same test was performed again with five minutes gap in both positions of the jaw.
Results: It shows that there was a significant difference in neck holding time between the resting jaw position and clenched jaw position. After five minutes of rest the neck holding time in both positions was decreased but it was statistically not significant. There was weak and inverse relationship between neck flexion endurance and age (r=-0.0264) and weak but direct relationship between neck flexion endurance and BMI (r=0.283)
Conclusion: The neck holding time in the clenched jaw position is less than the resting jaw position; this shows that a sensory-motor relationship exists between the neck and jaw. Variation in jaw positioning impacts neck flexor endurance.

Published: July 2023

Background: Unhealthy, jumbled eating habits and irregular eating behavior, often associated with body image and weight concerns, are known as abnormal eating behaviors. Anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge eating disorders are common disordered eating behaviors. Females are more likely than males to experience eating disorders.
Objective: The research was conducted to determine the frequency of eating disorders in women of reproductive age group and identify the factors associated with it.
Methods: It was a cross-sectional study carried out at Central Park Medical College, Lahore. Non-probability convenient sampling technique was used to collect data from 196 females of the reproductive age group (15-49 years) using the Scoff Questionnaire. Binary logistic regression was applied to observe the association of eating disorders with non-communicable diseases (NCDs). SPSS version 26 was used for data analysis.
Results: About 82.8% of the females belonged to urban areas and out of those 44.5% had an eating disorder. Binary logistic regression analysis indicated that the odds of developing eating disorders were 85% high for obese women. Approximately 12.6% of the females agreed or strongly agreed that they overeat. Overeating was observed as a statistically significant associated factor with eating disorder (p value=0.048).
Conclusion: Approximately 45.5% of the females were identified as either having anorexia nervosa or bulimia. Females living in cities and nuclear family systems had a higher percentage of eating disorders.

The main method of preventing infections is good hand cleanliness. Bilimbi (Averrhoa bilimbi) fruits contains flavonoids, which have been tested for antibacterial activity. Polar chemicals like flavonoids are often extracted using ethanol as a solvent. Therefore, this study aimed to formulate an ethanol extract of A. bilimbi fruits in the form of hand soap. This formulation used vegetable oils such as olive oil, coconut oil, and castor oil, which are high in fatty acids to maintain healthy skin. Antibacterial activity was carried out against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. The extract was prepared by maceration for 5 days using an ethanol solvent. Liquid soap contained A. bilimbi fruit extracts at 5% (F1) and 10% (F2). The F1 and F2 organoleptic tests showed the preparation as a thick liquid with a distinctive coconut oil aroma, light brown (F1) and brown (F2) color. pH values of 5.8 (F1) and 5.6 (F2). Foam height stability was 71.5% (F1) and 73.1% (F2). The specific gravity for the two formulas was 1.02 g/mL. The viscosity of F1 and F2 was 137.6 cP and 163.5 cP, respectively. Inhibition power against S. aureus using the agar diffusion method by measuring the diameter of the inhibition zone showed strong (F1) and very strong (F2) categories The inhibition against S. aureus showed strong (F1) and very strong (F2) categories. While F1 has no inhibitory power against E. coli, F2 showed inhibition in the strong category. Based on our research, it can be concluded that A. bilimbi fruit extract can produce good hand soap and have bacteria-inhibiting activity. However, further formula development is still needed to obtain preparations that meet all the requirements and stability tests.
