Comparative review of large animal models for suitability of proximal aortic endovascular repair
Authors: Srinivas Abhishekh , Yii Ming , Smith Julian A. 
Published: March 2022

Background
The advent of TEVAR heralds a paradigm shift in treating descending aortopathies and is viewed as a potential option for ascending aortic dissection (AD) repair too. Currently, TEVAR’s usage for ascending aortopathies remains limited. Consequently, an urgent requirement exists to choose appropriate animal models to better contemporary understanding of endovascularly treating Type-A ADs.
This review article provides a summary of current literature on this topic. Two broad sections are covered, including the macroscopic differences between adult swine, ovine and porcine species versus that of their human counterparts, as well as the valvular, aortic and coronary vasculature variances.

Methods
A narrative review was conducted to integrate current findings of anatomical differences in valvular and ascending aortic anatomy amongst the aforementioned species. An electronic search of PubMed and Ovid Medline databases from January 1965 to June 2020 was performed, limited to articles published in English.

Results
Whilst macroscopic anatomy remains grossly similar, differences in valvular leaflet shape are present, with swine and porcine models possessing anatomic characteristics that are comparable to their human counterparts. Research into inter-species ascending aortic anatomy has not been extensively performed, highlighting a literature gap. Conversely, multiple morphological studies have highlighted that swine coronary vasculature is closely resemblant to that of man.

Conclusion
Both swine and ovine species are suitable as appropriate animal models in examining the feasibility of endovascular stent-grafts for ascending ADs. However, given the similarities in coronary and aortic valve anatomy to their human analogues, porcine models are better suited for this purpose.

Situados en una sociedad diferente; hemos de aprender a escuchar lo que los hechos , nos dicen. No negar la realidad sino asumirla, dejándonos guiar por el Espíritu. No hemos de ser temerosos del cambio, sino de hacer el que a nosotros nos guste. En todo cambio hacia fa nueva cultura vocacional está presente Dios. No es fiel el que se enciena con sus rniedos en fonrtas que le dan seguridad, porque funcionaran antes, sino el que se despoja y se deja guiar por la palabra que lo lleva al futuro. Vocaciones nuevas desde la nueva situación.
A Peculiar High Synthesis: Cormac McCarthy'sChild of Godand the Community-Created Other
Authors: Jackson Trevor 
Published: March 2022

ABSTRACTThis article examines the case of modernity (as an enclosing device) and the impact its pervasive epistemological assumptions have on its subjects. In particular, I propose several heavily freighted examples from Cormac McCarthy's Child of God in order to foreground the ways in which the central character Lester Ballard's ideas arise from the social circumstances out of which he comes and from which he takes his cues. To do so, this article first contextualizes modernity and its system of social and official recursiveness where authenticity is compromised before moving to specific scenes from the novel. It examines three incidents of Ballard's actions, including his encounters with and encouragement by the legal system, his performances of hypermasculinity and the endorsement of rape culture, and his voyeurism before returning to the two accusatory quotations where the novel addresses the reader to clarify the position of our social responsibility.
Cormac McCarthy's Poetics of Craftsmanship
Authors: Bellini Federico 
Published: March 2022

ABSTRACT
“The work is everything,” says Ben, the main character of McCarthy's play The Stonemason, summing up his grandfather Papaw's view of the craft of the stonemason as the ground of beauty, justice, and truth. Judging from McCarthy's inclination to indulge in extended descriptions of all sorts of labors and crafts he must, at least in part, agree with his character. As has been noted elsewhere, craftsmanship is a privileged theme in Cormac McCarthy's oeuvre, and the available archival material proves that the author has always been meticulous in gathering information about the crafts he has set himself to describe, undertaking extensive bibliographical research in all technical aspects and at times seeking help from specialist advisers. Relying on some manuscripts and letters held at the Wittliff Collections in San Marcos, Texas, this article investigates the way McCarthy collaborated with two specialist medical advisers, Dr. Oren Ellis and Dr. Barry King, in the writing of a scene of his novel The Crossing. The intention is to provide insight into McCarthy's creative process and to further understand the way descriptions of crafts integrate within his overall poetics in what can be defined as an attempt to oversaturate the representation of reality.

Published: March 2022

The world has finally realized that involving stakeholders is key in Health Promotion and Environmental Health, and Community Health nurses seem to play a significant role in the implementation of actions aimed to empower communities in optimising their health. Despite the existing and extensive body of literature on Climate Change worldwide, this review specifically intends to map community actions led or implemented so far, aimed for community empowerment in preventing climate change, a topic which is yet to be explored. The review will include quantitative, qualitative, mixed methods studies from 2005 onwards. Also, systematic reviews, text, opinion papers and grey literature in English and Portuguese will be considered. The present protocol follows the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) methodological framework. Databases to be searched include MEDLINE, CINAHL, Scopus, Embase, Web of Science, SciELO (Scientific Electronic Library Online, Google Scholar, Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP). Hand searched references will also be used and considered for inclusion. This review will identify the type of community empowerment actions led or implemented so far to prevent climate change, including the characteristics of this, as well as the key stakeholders involved. The results will be presented in tabular format alongside a narrative summary.

Published: March 2022

This paper mainly focuses on the creation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) using natural intelligence but the question to be considered whether the natural intelligence can be created using artificial intelligence or not. The Artificial intelligence is the outcome of functionality and capabilities of human brain called neural Network. In this paper, it is presumed that the artificial intelligence is a byproduct of natural intelligence and then we discuss some relationship between both of these, especially the working of natural intelligence. Some other important questions are raised to understand a deep linkage between natural and artificial intelligence. There exists lot of non-material phenomenon created by dint of natural intelligence (not created by human) causing to produce systems run by artificial intelligence theorems and algorithms working at backend. The software based on Knowledge Based Systems (KBS) derives its power from human wisdom and natural intelligence. There are several limitations on artificial intelligence. In creation of natural intelligence there is a great role of spirituality.Humans are creator of artificial intelligence with limited abilities. Actually AI started with invention of machines. The applications of creation of natural intelligence are vastly and abundantly known to humans of 21st Century, which are incorporated in the areas of Space Science, Anatomy, and motion ofPlants, spin of electron, Electronics, plant intelligence and Neural Science etc. The working of machines depending upon the artificial intelligence doesn't provide creativity or self-motivated innovations, within the meaning of natural intelligence.

Published: March 2022

In this increasingly dynamic era of globalization, the conventional buying and selling system is slowly fading away because it does not accommodate the wishes of consumers who want to conduct transactions efficiently and flexibly using only computers or mobile phones and connected to the internet by opening online shopping sites. Thus, it can be concluded that the existence of e-commerce is the best and efficient solution for the community. However, in the current e-commerce era, many online transactions are at risk, one of which is the leakage of user data. When we surf the world of the internet we are very close to the possibility of data leakage. This study aims to determine the urgency of the general provisions of commercial law in dealing with cybercrime risks in the e-commerce era. The qualitative method with a juridical normative approach is the analytical method used in this study. The results of the study indicate that the General Provisions of Commercial Law require legal codification to adjust the provisions in accordance with the development and needs of the community. Suggestions in this study are that it is necessary to immediately complete the draft of the codification of the KUHD in order to create certainty and protection for consumer personal data.
Di era globalisasi yang kian dinamis kini, sistem jual beli konvensional perlahan memudar karena tidak mengakomodasi keinginan para konsumen yang ingin melakukan transaksi dengan efisien dan fleksibel hanya dengan menggunakan sarana komputer atau handphone dan terhubung jaringan internet dengan membuka situs-situs belanja online. Sehingga, dapat disimpulkan bahwa eksistensi perdagangan elektronik (e-commerce) menjadi solusi terbaik dan efisien bagi masyarakat. Namun, dalam era perdagangan elektronik kini banyak transaksi daring yang beresiko salah satunya adalah kebocoran data pengguna. Saat kita berselancar dengan dunia internet kita sangat dekat dengan adanya kemungkinan kebocoran data. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui urgensi ketentuan umum hukum dagang dalam menangani risiko cybercrime di era e-commerce. Metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan normatif yuridis adalah metode analisis yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini. Hasil dari penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Ketentuan Umum Hukum Dagang memerlukan kodifikasi hukum untuk menyesuaikan ketentuannya sudah sesuai dengan perkembangan dan kebutuhan masyarakat. Saran dalam penelitian ini adalah diperlukan segera penyelesaian rancangan kodifikasi KUHD agar terciptanya kepastian dan perlindungan bagi data pribadi konsumen.
VISCERAL ADIPOSITY INDEX: A SIMPLE TOOL FOR ASSESSING RISK OF TYPE 2 DIABETES MELLITUS
Authors: Zar Adnan , Ali Sobia Sabir 
Published: March 2022

Background: The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has increased recently in Pakistan. Visceral adiposity index (VAI) appears to be a better predictor for metabolic syndrome associated with insulin resistance. VAI has been shown to be linearly and positively associated with diabetes mellitus (DM) in many populations. It is, however, uncertain whether VAI could be associated with T2DM in the Pakistani adult population. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study of 300 outpatients with a newly diagnosed T2DM. Subjects were recruited from Lady Reading Hospital, Pakistan, during the period from April, 2020 to January, 2021. For all study subjects, anthropometric measurements were performed. Blood samples were collected for the assessment of high-density lipoproteins (HDL-C), triglycerides (TGs), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), and random blood glucose. Results: Participants with high VAI showed poor glycemic control. The number of patients with poor glycemic control increased across the VAI quartiles. VAI showed significant correlations with TGs (r=0.715, p=<0.001), total cholesterol (TC) (r=0.256, p=<0.001), low density lipoprotein (LDL-C) (r=0.154, p=0.007), uric acid (r=0.205, p=0.019), duration of diabetes (r=0.171, p=0.033), TSH (r=0.163, p=0.007), and random blood glucose (r=0.195, p=0.019). Conclusion: Our data suggest that VAI is significantly and positively correlated with the risk factors of DM such as random blood glucose, uric acid and TSH. The findings of the study do not imply a significant direct association between VAI and DM among the Pakistani adult population. Prospective-large scale studies can help inform an effectiveness of VAI for the prediction of the risk of T2DM among Pakistani population.
Topofilia e Topofobia em O Sertanejo: uma análise ecocrítica do regionalismo alencarino
Authors: Sarmento Elisângela Campos Damasceno , Moura Geraldo Jorge Barbosa de 
Published: March 2022

Esta pesquisa propõe investigar, sob o método da Análise do Discurso de Linha Francesa e da perspectiva Ecocrítica - que estuda as imbricações entre a Literatura e a Ecologia -, as relações homem-ambiente e as representações do sertanejo e do sertão que o escritor José de Alencar delineia na obra O Sertanejo, dialogando com o sentimento humano que é despertado na interlocução com o lugar, com o ambiente e com o território, tendo em vista os conceitos de topofobia (aversão ao ambiente físico) e topofilia (familiaridade ou apego), propostos, em 1980, pelo geógrafo chinês Yi-Fu Tuan. Os discursos presentes na narrativa demonstram a predominância do sentimento de apego à Caatinga (topofilia), desmistificando, pois, a visão hegemônica topofóbica. Portanto, a Ecocrítica suscita imersões inter e transdisciplinares, representando, assim, um substrato à compreensão das relações homem-ambiente.
Cidadania dos Currículos Oficiais da Geografia Escolar em Minas Gerais Pós Ditadura Militar
Authors: Carvalho Naiemer Ribeiro de 
Published: March 2022

Este artigo propõe investigar no currículo oficial nacional, os Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais – PCN (1998 e 1999), e nos currículos estaduais de Minas Gerais (1987 e 2007), a presença ou não do tema “cidadania” na disciplina de Geografia e as noções de cidadania veiculadas pelos mesmos. Dentro desta perspectiva, também observaremos nos currículos se as temáticas e conteúdos relacionados ao período da Ditadura Militar (1964-1985) aparecem e de que forma. Partimos da noção de inscrição (PEREIRA, 2015) para a analisar os currículos sob essa perspectiva e buscamos compreender o papel da presença/ausência desse tema na disciplina e a construção de uma cidadania democrática. Optamos pela leitura dos currículos e análise da ocorrência das palavras “cidadania”, “ditadura militar”, “identidade” à luz dos referenciais teóricos e históricos utilizados. Pudemos perceber as mudanças das concepções de cidadania e identidade e uma inscrição frágil da ditadura militar.

Background
Marine protected areas (MPAs) usually have both positive effects of protection for the fisheries’ target species and indirect negative effects for sea urchins. Moreover, often in MPAs sea urchin human harvest is restricted, but allowed. This study is aimed at estimating the effect of human harvest of the sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus within MPAs, where fish exploitation is restricted and its density is already controlled by a higher natural predation risk. The prediction we formulated was that the lowest densities of commercial sea urchins would be found where human harvest is allowed and where the harvest is restricted, compared to where the harvest is forbidden.

Methods
At this aim, a collaborative database gained across five MPAs in Sardinia (Western Mediterranean, Italy) and areas outside was gathered collecting sea urchin abundance and size data in a total of 106 sites at different degrees of sea urchin exploitation: no, restricted and unrestricted harvest sites (NH, RH and UH, respectively). Furthermore, as estimates made in past monitoring efforts (since 2005) were available for 75 of the sampled sites, for each of the different levels of exploitation, the rate of variation in the total sea urchin density was also estimated.

Results
Results have highlighted that the lowest sea urchin total and commercial density was found in RH sites, likely for the cumulative effects of human harvest and natural predation. The overall rate of change in sea urchin density over time indicates that only NH conditions promoted the increase of sea urchin abundance and that current local management of the MPAs has driven towards an important regression of populations, by allowing the harvest. Overall, results suggest that complex mechanisms, including synergistic effects between natural biotic interactions and human pressures, may occur on sea urchin populations and the assessment of MPA effects on P. lividus populations would be crucial to guide management decisions on regulating harvest permits. Overall, the need to ban sea urchin harvest in the MPAs to avoid extreme reductions is encouraged, as inside the MPAs sea urchin populations are likely under natural predation pressures for the trophic upgrading.
Loss of gut microbial diversity in the cultured, agastric fish, Mexican pike silverside (Chirostoma estor: Atherinopsidae)

Teleost fish are the most diverse group of extant vertebrates and have varied digestive anatomical structures and strategies, suggesting they also possess an array of different host-microbiota interactions. Differences in fish gut microbiota have been shown to affect host development, the process of gut colonization, and the outcomes of gene-environment or immune system-microbiota interactions. There is generally a lack of studies on the digestive mechanisms and microbiota of agastric short-intestine fish however, meaning that we do not understand how changes in gut microbial diversity might influence the health of these types of fish. To help fill these gaps in knowledge, we decided to study the Mexican pike silverside (Chirostoma estor) which has a simplified alimentary canal (agastric, short-intestine, 0.7 gut relative length) to observe the diversity and metabolic potential of its intestinal microbiota. We characterized gut microbial populations using high-throughput sequencing of the V3 region in bacterial 16S rRNA genes while searching for population shifts resulting associated with fish development in different environments and cultivation methods. Microbiota samples were taken from the digesta, anterior and posterior intestine (the three different intestinal components) of fish that grew wild in a lake, that were cultivated in indoor tanks, or that were raised in outdoor ponds. Gut microbial diversity was significantly higher in wild fish than in cultivated fish, suggesting a loss of diversity when fish are raised in controlled environments. The most abundant phyla observed in these experiments were Firmicutes and Proteobacteria, particularly of the genera Mycoplasma, Staphylococcus, Spiroplasma, and Aeromonas. Of the 14,161 OTUs observed in this experiment, 133 were found in all groups, and 17 of these, belonging to Acinetobacter, Aeromonas, Pseudomonas, and Spiroplasma genera, were found in all samples suggesting the existence of a core C. estor microbiome. Functional metagenomic prediction of bacterial ecological functions using PICRUSt2 suggested that different intestinal components select for functionally distinct microbial populations with variation in pathways related to the metabolism of amino acids, vitamins, cofactors, and energy. Our results provide, for the first time, information on the bacterial populations present in an agastric, short-gut teleost with commercial potential and show that controlled cultivation of this fish reduces the diversity of its intestinal microbiota.
