Published: January 2025

Rice (Oryza sativa) cultivation is a cornerstone of India's economy and food security, with the nation ranking second only to China in annual production. Despite considerable advancements in recent years, rice yields remain below their maximum potential. Enhancing rice productivity through precise and advanced mineral nutrition techniques offers a promising solution for overcoming nutrient deficiencies in soils and improving crop yields. Zinc, an essential micronutrient, plays a crucial role in enzyme activation, protein synthesis, and overall plant metabolism. However, zinc deficiency is a widespread issue in many agricultural soils, particularly affecting rice crops, leading to reduced growth and yield. Addressing this deficiency through the application of appropriate zinc formulations is vital for improving rice productivity in zinc-deficient soils. A pot experiment was carried out in department of soil science and agricultural chemistry, Annamalai University, Chidambaram, Tamilnadu during kharif of 2023 and included four sources of zinc and four levels of zinc levels to study their comparative performances and improve the yield of rice. Growth characters viz., plant height, number of tillers hill-1, leaf area index, chlorophyll content, dry matter production, yield characters viz., no of panicles pot-1, no. of grains panicle-1, panicle length and test weight and grain and straw yield were recorded. The results indicated that the application of zinc lysinate at 5 kg ha-1, either individually or in combination, produced the highest growth and yield parameters, with grain (43.01 g pot-1) and straw (58.87 g pot-1) yields surpassing those of other treatments, demonstrating its potential to improve rice productivity in zinc-deficient soils.

Abstract
Persistent endodontic infections (PEIs) mediated by bacterial biofilm are the main cause of persistent periapical inflammation, resulting in recurrent periapical abscesses and progressive bone destruction. However, conventional root canal disinfectants are highly damaging to the tooth and periodontal tissue as well as ineffective in treating persistent root canal infections. Antimicrobial materials that are biocompatible with apical tissues and have the ability to eliminate PEIs-associated bacteria are urgently needed. Here, poly(lysine) derived carbon quantum dots (PL-CQDs) are fabricated using a pyrolysis method for removing PEIs-associated bacterial biofilms. Due to their ultra-smaller size, high positive charge, and active reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation capacity, PL-CQDs exhibit highly effective antibacterial activity against Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis), which is greatly dependent on PL-CQDs concentrations. 100 µg/mL PL-CQDs could totally kill E. faecalis in 5 min. Importantly, PL-CQDs are effective in eliminating biofilms in the isolated teeth model, disrupting the dense structure of biofilms.PL-CQDs have acceptable cytocompatibility and hemocompatibility in vitro as well as good biosafe in vivo. Thus, PL-CQDs provide a new strategy for the treatment of E. faecalis-associated PEIs.

Authors: Gromnatska N. , Pasichnyuk I. , Tomashevska O. 
Published: July 2023

Background. The issue of the pathogenetic influence of cortisol on the development of metabolic syndrome (MS) in children is considered. The above-threshold values of cortisol are proposed to be taken as a marker of MS. The purpose was to study the relationship between blood cortisol and MS components in children. Materials and methods. We have examined 44 children with MS (study group; waist circumference > 90th percentile of the distribution according to age and sex) and 14 children without signs of MS (controls). The children of the study groups did not differ in age and gender. Anthropometric parameters (body weight, height, body mass index, neck, waist, and hip circumferences, waist/hip circumference index), blood cortisol and leptin, blood lipid and carbohydrate spectrum (total cholesterol, high- and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, triglycerides, blood glucose, and insulin, HOMA-IR and glucose/insulin indices) were evaluated. The measurement of blood pressure with the calculation of the average level was conducted three times. The diagnosis of MS was formed according to the IDF guidelines, 2007. Results. It was found that the level of blood cortisol in children with MS (362.9 (255.5–634.1) µg/l) was 37.9 % lower than in controls (р > 0.05). The frequency of the above-threshold blood cortisol values in children of both groups was 31.8 and 50.0 %, respectively (р > 0.05). The study of dependence using the Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient between blood cortisol and anthropometric parameters (rmax = 0.16; p > 0.05), lipids (rmax = 0.4; р > 0.05), carbohydrate metabolism (rmax = 0.26; р > 0.05), and blood leptin (r = 0.19; р > 0.05) did not reveal any significance. A significant correlation was found between cortisol and systolic blood pressure. Conclusions. In children with MS, there was no significant difference in the level of blood cortisol compared to those without MS criteria. The association of blood cortisol and MS criteria other than systolic blood pressure has not been found. Although cortisol is important in the formation of systolic blood pressure, it cannot serve as a marker of MS in children since it is not a criterion-forming sign of MS.

Published: July 2023

The economy is often tedious and complicated for the majority of teenagers from age 13 to 18. The old-fashioned way of using lectures and books to teach could be challenging since the students are only studying an abstract concept and trying to understand pieces of knowledge from graphs and phenomena. After a series of investigations and research, we found that economics teaching and game-based teaching can be very well combined to help the students to learn better. In terms of making the subject more appealing to the students, giving students a platform to apply their knowledge to simulations, and having a deeper understanding of the concepts in the market economy by playing an educational game. A well-designed economic simulation game can stimulate students' interest, reduce the difficulty of teaching, and help them better understand the tedious content within their textbooks. Thus, we composed an 8 questions survey and collected data from 30 Chinese teenagers that come from different educational backgrounds. However, the survey was only given to Chinese students from different provinces. The total amount of samples may not be conclusive and cohesive. Meanwhile, future studies could give out surveys to students who come from different ethnic backgrounds to better understand how teenagers prefer to study around the globe.
Hollow Visceral Myopathy: Diagnosis and Management
Authors: Pswarayi Rudo , Pattinson James , Hyman Gabriela 
Published: July 2023

Abstract:
The aetiology of hollow visceral myopathy remains poorly understood despite the review of histology and is often misdiagnosed. It is characterized by impaired intestinal function and motility in absence of mechanical obstruction, which may be familial (transmitted by a dominant or recessive gene) or sporadic. Familial visceral myopathy is a rare hereditary myopathic degeneration of both gastrointestinal (and urinary tracts) that causes chronic intestinal obstruction. Typically, it presents after the first decade of life with symptoms of abdominal distension, abdominal pain, vomiting, constipation, and diarrhoea. It is, therefore, a rare cause of chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction. Secondary chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction is typically managed by treating the underlying condition, however, decompression by colostomy or tube gastrostomy/enterostomy/caecostomy may be performed; this also allows for feeding and irrigation of the alimentary tract.
This case study emphasizes the atypical presentation of hollow visceral myopathy and the importance of thorough investigations, the various findings during surgery (including a para-duodenal volvulus), and the different approaches to decompression of the intestinal tract that may be considered for such a patient.
