В статье представлены результаты исследования динамики роста абердин-ангусской породы по генам соматотропного каскада (гормон роста (bGH), рецептор гормона роста (bGHR) и инсулиноподобный фактор роста-1 (bIGF-1).
Работа проводилась в отделе молекулярно-генетических исследований научно-исследовательского института прикладной биотехнологии Костанайского регионального университета им. А. Байтурсынова и в лаборатории биотехнологии и диагностики инфекционных болезней Западно-Казахстанского аграрно-технического университета им. Жангир хана. Объектом исследования являлись животные абердин-ангусской породы (n=200), разводимой в ТОО «Север Агро-Н» Костанайской области. Генотипы животных по полиморфизмам bGH-AluI, bGHR-SspI и bIGF-1-SnaBI были установлены методом ПЦР-ПДРФ. По результатам генотипирования были сформированы группы животных с учетов генотипов по генам bGH, bGHR, bIGF-1, а также сформированы группы животных с учетом парных сочетаний их генотипов (диплотипов). У крупного рогатого скота изучали признаки: живая масса в возрастах 9, 12, 18 и 24 месяца, абсолютный и среднесуточный приросты.
Было выявлено, что в группе животных абердин-ангусской породы наиболее предпочтительными являются диплотипы bGH-AluILL-bIGF-1-SnaBIAA, bGH-AluILL-bIGF-1-SnaBIBB и bGH-AluIVV-bIGF-1-SnaBIBB, так как они ассоциированы с повышенными темпами роста. Полученные результаты свидетельствуют о нежелательности генотипа bGH-AluILV, а также сочетаний генотипов bGH-AluILV-bGHR-SspIFY и bGHR-SspIFF-bIGF-1-SnaBIBB. Таким образом, генотипы и диплотипы, оказывающие повышающий эффект на показатели мясной продуктивности, имели положительное влияние на показатели живой массы, абсолютного и среднесуточного приростов, и наоборот, генотипы и диплотипы, связанные с низкими продуктивными качествами крупного рогатого скота, были ассоциированы с наименьшими темпами роста; что подтверждает целесообразность использования их в качестве генетических маркеров.

Abstract
As part of a comprehensive effort to characterize the nearest stars, the CHIRON echelle spectrograph on the CTIO/SMARTS 1.5 m telescope is being used to acquire high-resolution (R = 80,000) spectra of K dwarfs within 50 pc. This paper provides spectral details about 35 K dwarfs from five benchmark sets with estimated ages spanning 20 Myr–5.7 Gyr. Four spectral age and activity indicators are tested, three of which aligned with the estimated ages of the benchmark groups—the Na i doublet (5889.95 and 5895.92 Å), the Hα line (6562.8 Å), and the Li i resonance line (6707.8 Å). The benchmark stars are then used to evaluate seven field K dwarfs exhibiting variable radial velocities for which initial CHIRON data did not show obvious companions. Two of these stars are estimated to be younger than 700 Myr, while one exhibits stellar activity unusual for older K-dwarf field stars and is possibly young. The four remaining stars turn out to be spectroscopic binaries, two of which are being reported here for the first time with orbital periods found using CHIRON data. Spectral analysis of the combined sample of 42 benchmark and variable radial velocity stars indicates temperatures ranging from 3900 to 5300 K and metallicities from −0.4 < [Fe/H] < +0.2. We also determine

for main-sequence K dwarfs. Ultimately, this study will target several thousand of the nearest K dwarfs and provide results that will serve present and future studies of stellar astrophysics and exoplanet habitability.
Detection of Na and K in the Atmosphere of the Hot Jupiter HAT-P-1b with P200/DBSP
Authors: Chen 陈 Guo 果 , Wang 王 Hongchi 红池 , van Boekel Roy , Pallé Enric 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
We present a new optical transmission spectrum of the hot Jupiter HAT-P-1b based on two transits observed with the Double Spectrograph (DBSP) on the Palomar 200-inch (P200) telescope. The DBSP transmission spectrum, covering a wavelength range from 3250 to 10007 Å, is consistent with that observed with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), but the former has a finer spectral resolution. The DBSP spectrum alone reveals the presence of a pressure-broadened line wing for Na, the line cores for both Na and K, and tentative evidence for H2O. We obtain consistent results from the spectral retrieval analyses performed on the DBSP-only data set and the DBSP, HST, and Spitzer combined data set. Our retrievals suggest a mostly clear atmosphere for HAT-P-1b, with a cloud coverage of

% that is dominated by enhanced haze. We derive subsolar abundances for Na, K, and C, and subsolar to solar for O. Future observations with James Webb Space Telescope and ground-based high-resolution spectrographs should be able to not only confirm the presence of these species but also stringently constrain the formation and migration pathways for HAT-P-1b.
The 3D X-Ray Ejecta Structure of Tycho's Supernova Remnant
Authors: Millard Matthew J. , Park Sangwook , Sato Toshiki , Hughes John P. , Slane Patrick , Patnaude Daniel , Burrows David , Badenes Carles 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
We present our velocity measurements of 59 clumpy, metal-rich ejecta knots in the supernova remnant (SNR) of SN 1572 (Tycho). We use our 450 ks Chandra High Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer observation to measure the Doppler shift of the He-like Si Kα line-center wavelength emitted from these knots to find their line-of-sight (radial) velocities (v

r
). We find v

r
up to ∼5500 km s−1, with roughly consistent speeds between blueshifted and redshifted ejecta knots. We also measure the proper motions (PMs) for our sample based on archival Chandra Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer data taken from 2003, 2009, and 2015. We estimate PMs up to 0.″35 yr−1, which corresponds to a transverse velocity of about 5800 km s−1 for the distance of 3.5 kpc to Tycho. Our v

r
and transverse velocity measurements imply space velocities of ∼1900–6000 km s−1 for the ejecta knots in Tycho. We estimate a new expansion center of R.A.(J2000) = 00h25m18s.725 ± 1.ˢ157 and decl.(J2000) = +64°08′02.″5 ± 11.″2 from our PM measurements, consistent to within ∼13″ of the geometric center. The distribution of space velocities throughout the remnant suggests that the southeast quadrant generally expands faster than the rest of the SNR. We find that blueshifted knots are projected more in the northern shell, while redshifted knots are more in the southern shell. The previously estimated reverse shock position is consistent with most of our estimated ejecta distribution; however, some ejecta show deviations from the 1D picture of the reverse shock.
CN 2−1 and CS 5−4 Observations toward Arp 299 with the SMA

Published: October 2022

Abstract
Dense gas is the key to understanding star formation in galaxies. We present high-resolution (∼3″) observations of CN 2−1 and CS 5−4 as dense gas tracers toward Arp 299, a mid-stage major merger of galaxies, with the Submillimeter Array. The spatial distribution of CN 2−1 and CS 5−4 are generally consistent with each other, as well as HCN 1−0 in the literature. However, different line ratios of CS 5−4 and CN 2−1 are found in the A, B, and C regions, with the highest value in B. Dense gas fraction decreases from IC 694 (A) to NGC 3690 (B) and the starburst in the overlap regions (C and C′), which indicates that circumnuclear upcoming starburst in A and B will be more efficient than that in the overlap region of Arp 299.
On the Measurement of Vorticity in Astrophysical Fluids
Authors: Spangler Steven R. 
Published: October 2022

Abstract
Vorticity is central to the nature of, and dynamical processes in turbulence, including turbulence in astrophysical fluids. The results of Raymond et al. on vorticity in the post-shock fluid of the Cygnus Loop supernova remnant are therefore of great interest. I consider the degree to which spectroscopic measurements of an optically thin line, the most common type of astronomical velocimetry, can yield unambiguous measurements of the vorticity in a fluid. I consider an ideal case of observations in the plane of a flow which possesses vorticity in a direction perpendicular to the plane of observations. The observationally deduced vorticity (referred to as the pseudovorticity) is a reasonable match for the true vorticity. However, the pseudovorticity of an irrotational model flow is also nonzero, and comparable in magnitude to that for a vortical flow. Astronomical spectroscopic observations may yield a good estimate of the vorticity, but its robustness cannot be insured.

Introduction: Acute alcohol intoxication (AAI) induces a number of myocardial disorders, which result in mitochon­drial dysfunction in cardiomyocytes, oxidative stress, and decreased cardiac contractility. Nitric oxide produced by the nNOS is one of the major modulators of cardiac activity. New derivatives of GABA (RSPU-260 compound) and glu­tamate (glufimet) can be potentially regarded as such agents as the interaction between the NO system and the GABA and glutamatergic systems has been proved.
Materials and methods: All the studies were performed on female white Wistar rats, aged 10 months, whose weight was 280–320g AAI intoxication was modeled of 32% ethanol (gavage, 4g/kg).
Results and discussion: Glufimet and the RSPU-260 compound caused a significant improvement in myocardial contractility, increased oxygen consumption in the V3 state according to Chance, raised the respiratory control ratio and decreased the intensity of LPO intensity. Their effectiveness exceeded that of mildronate, their comparator. nNOS inhibition resulted in a pronounced aggravation of oxidative stress implicated in MDA accumulation in cardiac mito­chondria and decreased activity of SOD; myocardial contractility and mitochondrial function indicators did not show a significant difference from the control group. The compounds under study coupled with nNOS inhibition had a car­dioprotective effect.
Conclusion: Glufimet and the RSPU-260 compound, derivatives of neuroactive amino acids, have a pronounced cardioprotective effect, restrict LPO processes, enhance SOD activity, improve the mitochondrial respiratory function after acute alcohol intoxication when coupled with neuronal NO-synthase inhibition, the expression of which persists after AAI.

Diversity in Nursing Education: Middle Eastern Students
Authors: Moore Brenda 
Published: October 2022

Background:
Culturally diverse students face barriers to success in nursing school. One troublesome obstacle is the faculty-student relationship. This study explored Middle Eastern nursing students in Jordan and identified Eastern-Western cultural differences that may occur in the United States.

Method:
Existential descriptive phenomenology and feminist theoretical framework were used to design, collect data, and analyze results for 24 final-semester students. Six themes were identified: dissatisfaction, time, negativity, gender, culture, and utopia. Findings indicate Middle Eastern students and families have a different view of nursing than U.S. faculty members.

Results:
Strong influences of family, culture, and community directly relate this study's conclusions to Middle Eastern students studying in the U.S. These findings may prevent faculty-student misunderstandings, diminished student academic performance, and loss of culturally diverse U.S. nurses.

Conclusion:

The faculty-student relationship benefits from an understanding of the cultural challenges and experiences identified by Middle Eastern nursing students studying in the U.S.

Les préparations des tableaux de Goya et de son entourage conservés en France
Authors: Eveno Myriam 
Published: October 2022

Les couches préparatoires de vingt-trois œuvres de Goya, de son entourage ou de sa suite, datées entre 1783 et 1843 et issues des collections françaises, ont été étudiées et analysées par microanalyse X à partir de micro-prélèvements. Cette recherche a permis de mettre en évidence trois catégories distinctes de préparations : une première où le blanc de plomb et le carbonate de calcium sont majoritaires ; une deuxième essentiellement à base de blanc de plomb et une troisième constituée de terres. Elles sont généralement colorées dans les tons beige, orangé ou rouge, en simple ou double application. Goya semble employer des couches de couleur rouge brique dans ses œuvres les plus anciennes, et plus claires à la fin de sa carrière. Ces résultats ont été confrontés avec d’autres œuvres de Goya et ont permis de contribuer, entre autres, à l’attribution à Francisco de Goya d’un autoportrait qui avait été auparavant attribué à son entourage.
EUS-guided choledochoduodenostomy for malignant biliary obstruction: A multicenter comparative study between plastic and metallic stents
Authors: da Silva Rodrigo Roda Rodrigues , Facanali Junior Marcio Roberto , Brunaldi Vitor Ottoboni , Otoch Jose Pinhata , Rocha Ana Carolina Aguiar , Artifon Everson Luiz de Almeida 
Published: October 2022

ABSTRACT

Background and Objectives:
EUS-guided choledochoduodenostomy (EUS-CDS) is commonly employed to address malignant biliary obstruction (MBO) after a failed ERCP. In this context, both self-expandable metallic stents (SEMSs) and double-pigtail stents (DPSs) are suitable devices. However, few data comparing the outcomes of SEMS and DPS exist. Therefore, we aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of SEMS and DPS at performing EUS-CDS.

Methods:
We conducted a multicenter retrospective cohort study between March 2014 and March 2019. Patients diagnosed with MBO were considered eligible after at least one failed ERCP attempt. Clinical success was defined as a drop of direct bilirubin levels ≥ 50% at 7 and 30 postprocedural days. Adverse events (AEs) were categorized as early (≤7 days) or late (>7 days). The severity of AEs was graded as mild, moderate, or severe.

Results:
Forty patients were included, 24 in the SEMS group and 16 in the DPS group. Demographic data were similar between the groups. Technical success rates and clinical success rates at 7 and 30 days were similar between the groups. Similarly, we found no statistical difference in the incidence of early or late AEs. However, there were two severe AEs (intracavitary migration) in the DPS group and none in the SEMS cohort. Finally, there was no difference in median survival (DPS 117 days vs. SEMS 217 days; P = 0.99).

Conclusion:
EUS-guided CDS is an excellent alternative to achieve biliary drainage after a failed ERCP for MBO. There is no significant difference regarding the effectiveness and safety of SEMS and DPS in this context.
Candida auris: a literature review
Authors: Kramer Dany G , Da Silva Maria J. L , M. de Sousa Anésio , B. C. Junior Geraldo , A. M. Filho Luiz 
Published: October 2022

Background: Emerging pathogen Candida auris has been associated with nosocomial outbreaks demonstrating widespread antifungal resistance. This microorganism is associated with systemic infections with a high mortality rate, and studies that contribute to a better understanding of this agent are important.
Objectives: The present article aimed to carry out bibliographic research on Candida auris. Therefore, a literature search was carried out between January 2018 and January 2022, applying the following: C. auris; Candida auris and Infection, in Portuguese, English and Spanish. This review considers the available literature on C. auris and highlights key unknowns, which will provide guidance for future work in this field.
Results: The data collected in the present review allowed us to divide the theme into topics on Pathophysiology, Epidemiology/clinical and drug resistance mechanisms, so that the understanding of Candida auris can be better detailed and understood.
Conclusion: The predilection of C. auris by the most vulnerable and immunosuppressed patients or with comorbidities and with the potential to cause invasive and bloodstream infections with a propensity to cause outbreaks and concerns regarding resistance to antifungal agents, the fungus Candida auris, is of increasing clinical relevance. The increase in the number of detected cases and the occurrence of strains with multiple drug resistance prove to be worrisome, and applied research is essential to contribute to the knowledge of this strain and effective therapy.
Admission hyperglycaemia as a prognostic indicator of outcome in major trauma patients at Bugando Medical Centre, Mwanza, Tanzania
Authors: Njau Angelo , Washington Leonard , Akaro Inyasi , Kidenya Benson , Kituuka Olivia , Chalya Phillipo 
Published: October 2022

Background: Admission hyperglycemia has been reported to be associated with poor outcomes among patients with major trauma. However, most of the available literature on this subject has been conducted in the developed world. This study aimed to determine the association between admission hyperglycemia and the outcome of major trauma patients admitted to Bugando Medical Centre.
Methods: This was a prospective cohort study, involving major trauma patients admitted to Bugando Medical Centre (BMC) within 6 months from Sept 2017 to February 2018. The exposure was admission hyperglycemia (>11.1mmol/l) and non-exposure was normoglycemia (≤11.1mmol/l).
Results: A total of 217 patients (M: F ratio = 4.1: 1) were recruited. Their ages ranged from 4 to 97 years with a median age of 31 years. Out of 217 patients, 106 (48.8%) were hyperglycemic and the remaining 111(51.2%) were normoglycemic. The overall median days of length of hospital stay (LOS) was 15 days. There was no statistically significant association between admission hyperglycemia and LOS (p =0.875). In this study, 73 patients died giving a mortality of 33.6%. Patients with admission hyperglycemia (>11.1mmol/l) had significantly higher mortality as compared to normoglycemic patients (≤11.1mmol/l) (p < 0.001).
Conclusion: This study found that admission hyperglycemia was statistically significantly associated with increased mortality among major trauma patients at BMC. Therefore, there is a need to institute regular monitoring of blood sugar levels among these patients and give appropriate treatment to those found with elevated blood sugar levels.
Point prevalence mapping of malaria infection in Rivers State, Nigeria
Authors: Egbom Sylvia Ezinne , Nduka Florence Onyemachi , Nzeako Sidney Obidimma 
Published: October 2022

Background: Variations in the risk of malaria across locations exist but are poorly understood though identifying hotspots of malaria transmission will create opportunities for targeted interventions. Point prevalence of malaria in Rivers State was studied using Primary Healthcare Centres (PHCs) as survey points.
Methods: The PHCs in Rivers State were geo-referenced using a handheld Global Positioning System (GPS) and 74 were selected across 21 local government areas using systematic grid point sampling. Blood samples were obtained from 2340 persons who consented and questionnaires were administered to obtain their demographic data. Malaria parasites in blood films were detected using the Giemsa staining technique. Data generated were analysed using SPSS 22.0 and presented using descriptive statistics. The level of relationship amongst the parameters was obtained using Chi-square. Co-ordinates of PHCs sampled and their prevalence data for malaria were entered into Microsoft Excel 2007 spreadsheet and transmitted to ArcGIS 10.8. This platform was then used to produce point prevalence infection maps of the State using geographic information systems (GIS). Survey points with malaria point prevalence values of 75% and above and cumulative prevalence of 1.97% and above were categorised as malaria transmission hot spots in the various LGAs.
Results: The study recorded an overall prevalence of 56.3%, with P.falciparum as the only identified malaria parasite. Data revealed that Oyoro Model Primary Health Centre (MPHC), Arukwo Primary Health Centre, Ele Health Post (HP) and Emago HP recorded very high prevalence of 96.7%, 96%, 95.2% and 94.4% respectively, whereas MPHC Iriebe had the least prevalence. Twelve hotspots with point prevalence above 75% were identified and eight hotspots likewise with cumulative prevalence above 1.97%.
Conclusion: Malaria infection remains endemic in Rivers State. This study provides malaria point prevalence maps of Rivers State which will serve as a reference to policymakers for strategic interventions in the State
