ABSTRACT
Complete scalp hair loss can be a source of distress for affected children and their families. In addition to infectious and trauma-related causes of hair loss, infants and children may present with total scalp alopecia arising from a range of genetic predispositions. Our objective with this review was to identify the common genetic conditions in children with complete scalp alopecia. The PubMed Database was reviewed for all articles from 1962 to 2019 containing the search terms related to genetic alopecia. The conditions with at least five reported cases in the literature were considered for the inclusion. All clinical trials, retrospective studies, and cases on human subjects and written in English were included. Six genetic conditions related to complete scalp alopecia were included in this review. The most common genetic conditions associated with total scalp hair loss include: alopecia totalis/Alopecia universalis (AU), atrichia with papular lesions, AU congenita, hereditary Vitamin D-resistant rickets type IIA, alopecia with mental retardation, and pure hair and nail ectodermal dysplasia. In children presenting with total scalp hair loss, a myriad of genetic and environmental factors may be the underlying cause. Increased awareness of potential genetic conditions associated with total scalp hair loss may assist in diagnosis, with improved the prognosis for the children.

ABSTRACT

Background:
Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is the most common cause of hair loss in males which remains a therapeutic challenge.

Objectives:
To compare the efficacy of topical 5% minoxidil and 0.25% finasteride combination (MNF) over 5% minoxidil (MNX) or 0.25% finasteride (FNS) alone by assessing hair count, physician assessment score (PAS), and patient satisfaction score (PSS).

Materials and Methods:
Pilot randomized open-label study where 60 male patients with AGA ≥ III grade were randomized into three treatment groups and evaluated over 24 weeks. Improvement in hair count was assessed manually using dermoscopy. Global photographs were used to assess PAS. Side effects were evaluated using relevant laboratory investigations.

Results:
At the 12th and 24th week, all three groups showed significant improvement in total hair density as compared to baseline (P < 0.001). None of the groups was superior to the other (P > 0.05) at the 12th week but at 24th week, MNF was comparatively superior (P < 0.02). At the 12th week and 24th week, all three groups showed significant improvement in terminal hair density as compared to baseline (P < 0.001). In the 12th week, MNF was comparatively superior (P = 0.028) and at the 24th week, MNF was comparatively superior (P < 0.02). PAS and PSS were significantly better with MNF and MNX compared to FNS (P < 0.004). Side effects such as scaling and itching were reported with MNF and MNX.

Conclusion:
Topical minoxidil 5% and finasteride 0.25% had an overall better efficacy compared to monotherapy without significant side effects.

Authors: Ruiz Robles Luis Alberto , Paba Rojas Christian Esteban , Pérez Pérez Sara Margarita , Noriega Stephanie 
Published: July 2023

Design:
Observational, descriptive, and retrospective.

Participants:
A total of 84 patients diagnosed with tumor and simulating lesions in the ophthalmology unit ot the Hospital Universitario San Ignacio between 2010 – 2020.

Methods:
All patients with a ICD10 code according to tumoral or inflammatory disease of the orbit at Hospital Universitario San Ignacio between January 2010 and December 2020 were included, and the diagnosis was confirmed with the clinical history. Pathology was classified according to the histopathological report or definitive diagnosis made with diagnostic tests/imaging. Additionally, the following data were obtained: age, sex, history, evolution time, lesion origin (primary, invasion, or metastasis), laterality, location in relation to the muscular cone, lesion size, symptoms, signs, presence of adenomegaly, extension, diagnostic approaches, histopathological diagnosis, intra/extrahospital treatment, and outcome. A virtual data collection format was developed for data collection, with subsequent descriptive analysis reporting percentages.

Results:
In adult patients (over 18 years old), 60 lesions were diagnosed. The most frequent tumor pathologies in this group correspond to squamous cell carcinoma of the eyelid with invasion into the orbit, 6 cases (18.75%), cavernous hemangioma, 4 (12.5%), lymphoid tumors, 4 (12.5%), schwannoma, 2 (6.25%), and pleomorphic adenocarcinoma, 2 (6.25%). The main simulating lesion in the adult population corresponds to thyroid orbitopathy, which is attributed to 33.3% of all tumor or non-tumor lesions. In patients under 18 years of age, 24 lesions were diagnosed. The most frequent pathologies in this group corresponded to retinoblastoma, 11 cases (45.8%), rhabdomyosarcoma, 5 (20.8%), and cavernous hemangioma, 2 (8.3%). In patients under 18 years of age, 54.1% of cases resulted in loss of the eyeball.

Conclusion:
During the period from January 2010 to December 2020, 84 orbital tumors and simulating lesions were diagnosed. The most frequent tumor lesion in adults corresponds to squamous cell carcinoma of the eyelid with invasion into the orbit, and in patients under 18 years of age, it corresponds to retinoblastoma. Greater secondary loss of the eyeball is documented in this latter population group, requiring enucleation or evisceration in 54.1% of cases.

Early Iron from Kinet Höyük, Turkey: Analysis of Objects and Evidence for Smithing
Authors: Güder Ümit , Gates Marie-Henriette , Yalçın Ünsal 
Published: July 2023

Kinet Höyük (ancient Issos), located in Cilicia on a narrow corridor between the seacoast of the East Mediterranean and the Amanus mountains (Nur Dağları), is an archaeological site with 29 excavated occupational levels, starting from the Early Bronze Age. The successive settlements at Kinet Höyük faced many military campaigns and changed hands frequently because of its strategic position with access to shipping routes, and the availability of rich mining and forestry resources. However, iron smithing was one of the activities that changed least during the transformations occurring in the region, according to iron-related finds from different occupational levels at the site. In this paper, iron objects and smithing slags from the Iron Age period at Kinet are introduced from their metallurgical perspective. The results of metallography and SEM-EDX analysis of Iron Age steel objects are discussed in light of previous studies on iron metallurgy of the neighboring regions. Additionally, slags which are dated to the site’s Neo-Assyrian phase are evaluated by petrography, ICP-MS and XRD analysis. Although all of the iron objects are fully corroded, remnant metal observations point to a variety of microstructural phases. The majority belong to medium- and high-carbon steel structures that were affected by heat treatments, i.e. normalizing, and annealing. Plentiful hammerscale were detected in thin sections of smithing slags. Basalt attachments to slags are considered to reflect the presence of basalt in the smithing hearths and other pyrotechnical settings.
The ‘island of silver veins’: an overview of the earliest metal and metalworking in Sardinia
Authors: Pearce Mark 
Published: July 2023

This paper presents a review of our knowledge of the earliest phases of metal use and working in Sardinia, based where possible on radiocarbon chronology. It covers the cultural periods from the late Neolithic Ozieri to the Copper Age Monte Claro phase. I suggest that in contrast to continental Italy, the earliest metalwork in Sardinia seems to be used for display. It is striking that metal use and working seems to emerge in Sardinia later than in mainland Italy, despite the island’s rich metal resources.

In production technology to create a highly productive sowing of grain crops, careful regulation of numerous factors that determine the formation of a high yield is required. In various soil and climatic conditions of crop cultivation optimization of technological methods determine the crop size and its quality indicators. Therefore, in order to achieve the highest yield, it is necessary to create conditions for growth and development, under which the largest number of productive stems with the maximum grain mass should be preserved until harvest [1, 8, 13].The yield of the studied variety of Yarovaya spring eincorn is directly dependent on the satisfaction of crops with mineral nutrition elements. The level of efficiency of mineral fertilizers is increased by optimizing the timing of sowing and the selected predecessor.Optimization of mineral nutrition makes it possible to increase the yield of this crop by an average of 16.1%. The early sowing of eincorn after the predecessors of peas and corn for silage makes it possible to maintain the optimal number of productive stems of more than 4.6 million. plants per hectare with the highest grain weight per plant.At the same time, the interaction of the number of plants and different levels of mineral nutrition has led to a significant change in the quantitative indicators of eincorn productivity by changing the mass of grain from one plant, which significantly increases the yield to 2.87 t/ha, which is 200% higher than the worst case and 67% higher than the control variant in our studies.The introduction of mineral fertilizers does not have a great effect on the content of spikelets in the ear, while it has an effect on the quality indicators and the physical weight of the grain in the ear. The weight of seeds from 1 productive ear when mineral fertilizers are applied reaches 0.8 g compared to the control variant.With an early sowing period with a predecessor of peas and corn for silage, the efficiency of mineral fertilizers increases.

Published: July 2023

At present production of high-yielding varieties of common beans in Russia with a high adaptive potential will stabilize and even increase the production of leguminous products in various geographical areas with varying degrees of moisture and heat supply. At the same time, an important condition for common bean varieties is that they must have a high degree of ecological plasticity and individual characteristics to changes in environmental factors.The field experiment was carried out on the basis of the FSBSI «PAFSC RAS» in the period from 2015 to 2017. The soil of the experimental plot is represented by a light chestnut solonetsous soil type.Evaluation of the reaction of 10 varieties of common beans of the studied leguminous crop from the collection of VIR named after V.I. N.I. Vavilov to a sharp climatic changes, e. g. sharp summer temperatures and dry winds during cultivation, will allow us to resolve issues with the selection of varieties for each peasant farm or a private household plot.The purpose of the research was to analyze the adaptability of common bean varieties, as well as to evaluate the protein content in the grain.To analyze the productivity and adaptability of common bean varieties in terms of varying their yield, the concept of “average varietal yield” was used, adopted by L. A. Zhivotkov, the author of the methodology.In the course of the analysis it was found that the maximum indicators when calculating the coefficient of adaptability were obtained in such varieties as Ballada – 1,06, Stanichnaya – 1,09, Oka – 1,15, Nerussa – 1,50, Gornal – 1,68. At the same time, the yield of these varieties in different years of research exceeded 3,0…4,0 t/ha. These varieties exceeded indicator 1 (adaptability coefficient), which indicates a high adaptive ability.The results of scientific research on the selection of high-yielding varieties with high adaptive capacity indicate the prospects for the cultivation of leguminous crops in the Astrakhan region.

Rheological processes are associated with irreversible residual deformations and flow of various plastic and viscous materials, stress and relaxation phenomena. In the food industry ingredients, semi-finished products and finished products have different rheological properties. These properties depend on various factors: substance composition, humidity, temperature, intensity and duration of thermal and mechanical effects. Study and application of various combinations of such effects in production can provide a given level of rheological characteristics throughout the entire technological process, which will stabilize product quality, increase yield and obtain finished products of constant, specified quality.The purpose of the research was to study the rheological properties of semi-finished products from a composite mixture of wheat and sorghum flour.The objects of the research were samples of semi-finished products containing 10, 20, 30, 40% of sorghum flour. The control sample contained 100% wheat flour of the highest grade.Mixolab device was used during testing to determine the water absorption capacity of the composite mixture, the rheological properties of the dough during kneading and heating. The state of the proteinproteinase (at temperatures from +20 to +50°C) and carbohydrate-amylase (at temperatures from +60 to +90°C) complexes of the baking mixture was studied on one sample of the sem-finished product.It was found that samples containing sorghum flour had a more stable dough, compared with the control sample, that was indicated by an increase in the dough stability time from 10,93 to 11,62 minutes. Also, with an increase in the amount of sorghum flour in the baking mixture from 10 to 30%, the starch retrogradation index decreased to 4,99 H*m in comparison with the control one – 5,71 H*m, which indicated an increase in the freshness time of the finished product.The results of the research can be used to create recipes for new products; development of technologies for the production of bakery, flour confectionery products; determination and quality control of finished products and semi-finished products.

Interatrial septal occlusion devices hinder the transseptal approach for atrial fibrillation ablation,making it necessary to have imaging methods that safely guide transseptal puncture, such as intracardiac echocardiography (ICE). We describe the case of a 49-year-old patient with symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, refractory to antiarrhythmic drugs, wearing an interatrial septal occlusion device, with a previous unsuccessful ablation attempt. Atrial fibrillation ablation was performed using the Carto V7 3D mapping system, the transseptal puncture was guided by ICE, and the procedure was successful. This case report highlights the importance of multimodality imaging to achieve successful and effective transseptal puncture for atrial fibrillation ablation in patients with interatrial septal occlusion devices.
