Published: March 2022

Background:
Bile duct ligation (BDL) is used for evaluating the protective effects of
different agents with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties against the liver and brain
damages. Naringenin (N) and melatonin (M) are used as protectants in various models of diseases.

Aim:
In the current research, the combinational effects of these well-known anti-inflammatory
and antioxidants agents were investigated against cerebral injuries induced by BDL in male rats.

Methods:
The animals were distributed into the following groups: Sham, BDL + Vehicle and
BDL+ N + M. Neuronal damages were evaluated using biochemical, motor behavioral tasks and
morphological assessments.

Results:
Based on the data, BDL resulted in decreasing locomotor activity, which was reversed by
N and M. Morphological study confirmed that BDL led to neurodegeneration in the cortex of the
rats, and the N and M treatment preserved cortical neurons. In addition, immunohistochemical
(IHC) study of the rat cortex showed that BDL resulted in increasing the activated astrocytes, and
the N and M treatment reduced the number of activated cells.

Conclusion:
These results obviously depicted combinational therapy with N and M to exert positive
effects in the BDL rats, probably due to their synergistic anti-inflammatory and antioxidant
activities.

Hexavalent Chromium Remediation from Water Bodies
Authors: Pal Anjali , Biswas Subhadeep , Danish Mohammad 
Published: March 2022

Abstract:
Hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) is a well-known carcinogen, and hence its removal from
aqueous media is an important area of research in the field of environmental engineering. Adsorptive
removal and catalytic reduction are the two most common techniques applied for this purpose. In this
regard, nanoparticle-mediated technology has contributed significantly. In the current review article, a
systematic investigation has been carried out to find the latest developments that took place in the domain
of Cr(VI) removal by nanotechnology. The major portion deals with the advancement and application
of the new-age materials, such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs), g-C3N4, MXenes, zero-valent iron
(ZVI), and their composites, for the Cr(VI) remediation purpose. Various interesting mechanisms, as
proposed by different research groups, have been covered. Applications of the nanocomposites in the
real wastewater scenario have also been highlighted. Different characterization techniques often conducted
in order to get insight into Cr(VI) removal process have been mentioned. Some patents related
to this field have been discussed. Lastly, the future scope of the nanomaterials, current challenges, feasibility
of using these nanomaterials in large-scale treatment plants, etc., have been addressed before
concluding the article.
Impaired Cardiovascular Response to Exercise in Patients with Severe Asthma: A Case-Control Study
Authors: Georgopoulou Athina , Fotiadou Laskarina , Tryfon Stavros , Daniil Zoi , Boutou Afroditi K. 
Published: March 2022

Background:
Although asthmatics may present reduced exercise capacity, data on their cardiovascular responses during exercise testing have been scarcely investigated. The aim of this pilot case-control study is to test: a) whether double product (DP), an index of cardiovascular reserve, differs among patients with severe and mild-moderate asthma, and b) whether DP is associated with asthma control level, physical activity (PA) and exercise capacity, in asthmatics population.

Materials and Methods:
A group of patients with severe asthma (group S) and a matched group of patients with mild-moderate asthma (group M) was studied. All participants completed asthma control and physical activity (IPAC) questionnaires, lung function measurements and six-minute walk test. The exercise capacity (as 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) and corresponding work), the Borg Dyspnea, the rating of perceived excursion and the average PA METS were recorded.

Results:
A total of 18 patients were studied. DP at exercise end was significantly lower in group S, compared to group M (16412.2±4732.1 vs. 18594.8±3984.4 mmHgXbpm; p=0.041) and was moderately associated with % predicted 6MWD (r=0.592; p=0.001). Group S patients were also presented with lower moderate intensity PA, compared to group M, while exercise capacity was similar between the groups. Asthma control level had no impact on exercise capacity nor PA parameters.

Conclusion:
Patients with severe asthma may have impaired cardiovascular reserve as established by DP, even when exercise capacity is indifferent from patients with milder disease. As an easy-to-assess parameter, DP may offer further information in the functional evaluation of these patients.
Prevalence of and Factors Associated With Transfusion-Transmitted Infections Among Multi-transfused Patients, Sana'a City, Yemen, 2019
Authors: Moghalles Suaad , Al Serori Abdulwahed , Alhadi Abd Alrahman , Shamsan Ahmed 
Published: March 2022

Background
Multi-transfused patients (MTPs) are at higher risk of transfusion-transmitted infections (TTIs) due to their frequent need for blood transfusion. Nevertheless, little is known about the prevalence of TTIs among MTPs and its associated factors in Yemen.

Objective
We aimed to determine the prevalence of hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), and HIV and its associated factors among MTPs.

Methods
A cross-sectional study was conducted at the Yemeni Society for Thalassemia and at Pediatric Leukemia Unit in Sana’a City. The calculated sample size of 357 was increased to 405 to overcome any nonresponses. By using probability proportional to size sampling, 80 patients with thalassemia, 240 patients with sickle cell anemia, and 85 patients with leukemia were randomly selected. Data were collected through face-to-face interviews with patients or their caretakers by using a predesigned questionnaire covering demographic, socioeconomic characteristics and TTI-associated factors. Blood samples were drawn and were tested for HBsAg, anti-HCV, and HIV I and II by using an electrochemiluminescence immunoassay.

Results
The overall prevalence of TTIs among MTPs was 13.1% and was significantly highest (37.3%) among patients with leukemia. HBV (16.2%) and HCV (27.5%) prevalence were also highest among patients with leukemia. Only 2 (0.04%) patients were found to be HIV positive among patients with sickle cell anemia. Coinfection with HBV and HCV was only found in 5 patients with leukemia. There was a significant association between TTIs and the receipt of >30 blood units. Only 35% of MTPs were found to be vaccinated against HBV.

Conclusions
Our findings raise an alarm for the existence of a high risk of TTIs among MTPs, especially among patients with leukemia and those who undergo an increasing number of transfusions. Using advanced technology in blood screening and strict infection prevention during transfusion should be adopted. The rational use of blood/blood substitutes and ensuring that MTPs are vaccinated against HBV are recommended.

A Clinical Presentation of the Direct Gold/Composite Sandwich Restoration
Authors: Henry DB 
Published: March 2022

SUMMARY
The intent of this paper is to present a new idea for increasing the life expectancy of class II composite restorations where the proximal marginal seal is compromised by the necessity to rely on dentin bonding. As implied by the Clinical Relevance statement, studies show that bonding to dentin in areas with high levels of bacterial action, combined with sustained high plaque formation, tends to be the “Achilles heel” with regard to sustained long-term restorations. Therefore, this paper will present a thought experiment, combined with clinical evidence, for combining gold foil with composite in these areas for the class two composite restoration. The results, if proven viable, will be to develop a procedure utilizing the properties of gold foil that make it one of the longest-lasting restorative materials with the recent development of modern cosmetic materials for a truly long-lasting and healthy class II restoration.

This study aims to examine the tax aggressiveness relationship accounting fraud. This study uses the Beneish M Score Model to detecting accounting fraud and then measured by a dummy variable. The tax aggressiveness variable measured using five proxies including, Effective Tax Rate (ETR1, ETR2, ETR3, ETR4) and Book Tax Differences (BTD). The study population was manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2013-2017. The study sample was determined by purposive sampling, so that 53 samples of manufacturing companies were obtained. Based on panel data regression analysis, the result show that of the five proxies used to measure tax aggressiveness, only ETR4 had a significant positive related to accounting fraud. While ETR1, ETR2, and ETR3 have an insignificant negative related to accounting fraud, and BTD is positive related to accounting fraud but not significant. The conclusion of this study is that tax aggressiveness are not positively related significantly with accounting fraud so the hypothesis is rejected.

A Virtual Measurement Method of the Transmission Error Based on Point Clouds of the Gear
Authors: Yu Bo , Kou Hanlin , Shi Zhaoyao , Sun Yanqiang 
Published: March 2022

Abstract
As the most widely used gear measuring instrument, the gear measuring center can measure the individual deviations of a gear tooth flank other than the comprehensive deviations of the gear. However, gear transmission error is an important transmission performance indicator in the gear meshing process. It is an important trend of gear measuring to obtain the transmission error from individual deviations. In this study, a calculation method of gear transmission error is proposed based on the point clouds of the gear obtained by optical sensors. According to the gear meshing principle, a method is introduced to determine the contact status between the tooth flanks formed by the point clouds. According to this introduced method, the single tooth pair meshing process and the meshing process of multiple tooth pairs are analyzed to determine the gear transmission error curve. The comparison results of tooth contact analysis and gear measurement experiments verify the proposed virtual measurement method.

Abstract
Taking Winnicott’s concept of transitional space as a starting point, I extend it to the idea of a transitional time (the temporal interval between two events) and to that of a bridge space/time – a bridge being a structure spanning an obstacle for the purpose of providing passage over it. In the process, I make reference to a variety of psychological and cultural phenomena that we experience in our daily lives, and more specifically in our analytic work. These include the transference, rites of passage, various kinds of silences, sexuality, borderline personality disorders, and the arts (in particular, music and cinema).
