Authors: Meshkova V. L. , Vorobei A. D. , Omelich A. R. 
Published: June 2022

Introduction
The outbreaks of the bark beetles Ips acuminatus (Gyllenhal, 1827) and Ips sexdentatus (Boerner, 1767) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) have begun to collapse, while the prevalence of Tomicus piniperda (Linnaeus, 1758) and Tomicus minor (Hartig, 1834) is beginning to increase. Given that most predatory beetles attack different species of bark beetles, it is still important to study the occurrence of such predators in forest stands and to rear these entomophages for forest protection. Since predators consume bark beetles at different stages during rearing, it is also advisable to recognize the features of bark beetles spread in collapsing foci to determine the optimal places and time for their collection.
The aim of the research was to evaluate the occurrence of bark beetles (Coleoptera: Scolytinae) and their predators in collapsing foci depending on certain stand characteristics.
Materials and Methods
The study was carried out in collapsing foci of bark beetles in Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) stands in Sumy region. Sample trees of the 5th and 6th categories of health condition were analysed at 30 sample plots in three state forest enterprises of Polissya part of Sumy region and in seven state forest enterprises of the Forest-Steppe part of Sumy region (9 and 21 forestries respectively). Insects were counted on 25 ? 25 cm pallets from mid-May to mid-August 2021. Predatory insects were collected from each pallet to individual Eppendorf tubes, labeled, and later identified in the laboratory.
Results and Conclusions
The six predator Coleoptera species were found in the declining stage of outbreak cycle of bark beetles Ips acuminatus (Gyllenhal, 1827) and Ips sexdentatus (Boerner, 1767), namely Aulonium ruficorne (Olivier, 1790) (Colydiidae), Platysoma elongatum (Leach, 1817) (Histeridae), Rhizophagus depressus (Fabricius, 1792) (Monotomidae), Corticeus pini (Panzer, 1799) (Tenebrionidae), Thanasimus formicarius (Linnaeus 1758), and Thanasimus femoralis (Zetterstedt, 1828) (Cleridae). Platysoma elongatum and Aulonium ruficorne had the highest frequency of occurrence in the second decade of May, Thanasimus formicarius in the 3rd decade of May, Corticeus pini in the 1st decade of June, Rhizophagus depressus, Platysoma elongatum, and Aulonium ruficorne in the 3rd decade of June. The fragments of the stem with bark beetles for predators’ rearing have to be collected from the trees of the 5th category of health condition. It is necessary to collect Thanasimus formicarius for rearing in the 3rd decade of May and in the 1st decade of August, and Rhizophagus depressus, Platysoma elongatum, and Aulonium ruficorne – in the 3rd decade of June.

Authors: Soma Shahinoor Akter , Jamal Chowdhury Yakub , Chowdhury Indira , Diba Farah , Saha Mousumi 
Published: June 2022

Background: Seizure is one of the most common CNS complications among patients receiving chemotherapy for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Seizures are seen in 8-13% of patients with ALL. Most seizure occurs during the induction and consolidation phases of treatment. However, not much is known about the risk factors of these seizure.
Materials & Method: This prospective observational study was conducted in the department of Pediatric Hematology and Oncology, BSMMU. One hundred and five newly diagnosed admitted children with ALL aged >1 year to <18 years, from May 2017 to March 2018 for induction remission chemotherapy and who fulfilled the criteria of case definition were enrolled into this study.
Results: This study showed that seizure frequency was14.3% in children with ALL getting induction remission chemotherapy. Female patients developed seizures more than males which was statistically significant by univariate analysis (p = 0.029) but was not found to be a risk factor by multivariate analysis (p = 0.059). All the seizures developed in B-lineage ALL but there was no statistically significant association between lineage of ALL with development of seizures.
Conclusions: In this study slightly higher frequency of seizure in ALL patients on induction remission chemotherapy was found than previous studies (14.3% vs. 13%). Females developed seizures more than males.

Authors: Chowdhury Kona , Ahmed Mesbah Uddin , Uddin Mohammed Jamal , Roy Sudipta 
Published: June 2022

Marfan syndrome (MFS) is a rare inherited disorder of connective tissue characterized by various phenotypical and genetic manifestations. It involves mutation in FBN1 gene which encodes for microfibrillin glycoprotein fibrillin-1. Predominant involvement occurs in eyes, skeleton and cardiovascular system. Cardiovascular abnormalities such as aortic root dilatation and mitral valve prolapse are the two main life-threatening complications associated with MFS. The diagnosis is based upon clinical findings, some of which are age dependent. If not properly treated, premature death may be caused by the severe cardiovascular and pulmonary complications associated with Marfan syndrome. Therefore, it is important to identify this potentially life-threatening condition in general practice. We are presenting two cases of Marfan syndrome from same family due to its rarity.

The purpose of this study is to determine the potential extract of areca nut (Areca catechu L.) seeds, skin and the combination of the two extracts in killing the Aedes aegypti larvae. This study used a Completely Randomized Design in the seed extract test with a concentration of 16000, 17000, 18000, 19000 and 20000 ppm and skin extract with concentrations of 7000, 8000, 9000, 10000 and 11000 ppm. The factorial design was used in the combined extract of 0:100; 25:75; 50:50; 75:25 and 100:0. Each treatment used 4 replications. Data were analyzed by ANOVA and then continued by Tukey, LSD and Duncan tests. The last, data were analyzed by probit analysis to determine LC50 and LC90. The result indicates that areca nut seed and skin contain flavonoid, alkaloid, palmitic acid, phenols, terpenoids and steroids which are toxic. The killing power of seed extract was 64-97% (24hours) and 100% in all treatments (48hours). Skin extract was 52-88% (24hours) and 58-93% (48hours), while the combination extract was 55 -93% (24hours) and 95-100% (48hours). Concentration of 19000 ppm of seed extract with 95% mortality at 24 hours was effective when compared to the WHO standard (2005), while the skin extract had a lower LC value than the other two extracts.

A partir de uma abordagem interdisciplinar, que coaduna interpretações da sociologia, da antropologia, da filosofia e do dialogismo do círculo russo de Bakhtin, nosso objetivo consiste em analisar um artigo intitulado “Os jovens nem nem” publicado na revista “Istoé” online, que mobiliza um discurso sobre os jovens que não estudam e também não trabalham. Na análise do enunciado, buscamos compreender como ele reflete e refrata valorações próprias de partidas ideológicas que buscam analisar o papel social do jovem a partir de uma interpretação de base socioeconômica. Os conceitos de signo ideológico, palavra, ideologia, e consciência socioideológica são mobilizados na análise, na medida em que entendemos que o enunciado é constituído por valorações que sustentam relações sociais, interpretações de mundo e das vivências, sempre a partir de posicionamentos ideológicos. Como resultado, apresentamos a importância do dialogismo na análise dos discursos que ecoam perspectivas sócio-históricas, culturais e ideológicas sobre a temática das juventudes, a destacar como fundamental a presença de vozes sociais e valores que servem a representações refratárias, ou à multiplicidade de identidades e trajetórias dos jovens, de modo a clarificar como os discursos constituem e ao mesmo tempo são constituídos pelas relações sociais, sendo sua interpretação subsidiária de prospecções e rupturas de ordens instaladas.

Published: June 2022

Esta pesquisa é de caráter qualitativo descritivo-analítico tendo um ambiente natural como fonte direta de dados, estes são descritivos e a maior preocupação se concentra no processo, com a complexidade das trajetórias dos participantes, ou seja, o significado que as pessoas dão às coisas e à sua vida é objeto de atenção do pesquisador. Analisa a trajetória formativa percorrida por duas professoras iniciantes, atuantes no ensino fundamental –anos iniciais, ao se inserirem em um programa de acompanhamento e apoio ao iniciante, intitulado mentoria. No programa em questão um professor experiente (mentor) auxilia professores iniciantes a desenvolver competências profissionais mais rapidamente e na fundamentação de novas práticas profissionais. A partir da análise das trajetórias profissionais dessas duas iniciantes compartilhadas em um ambiente virtual de aprendizagem foi possível delinear tensões e aprendizagens que envolvem o percurso inicial de seu desenvolvimento profissional. A pesquisa evidenciou a importância de uma formação contínua, e, assim, traduz a essencial relevância dos programas de indução, uma vez que percebe-se um dos fatores indispensáveis ao desenvolvimento profissional docente: o acompanhamento desses profissionais no início da carreira ameniza as tensões, condiciona novas perspectivas, providencia quebra de paradigmas, amplia os repertórios teóricos/metodológicos dos(as) professores(as). Assim, o programa de mentoria pode ser visto como uma oportunidade e experiência planejada de forma sistemática com o intuito de propiciar que o iniciante se envolva em um movimento de questionamento das situações que vivencia na prática docente e a construção de planos de ação para superação das tensões.

Competitive alpine skiers are exposed to enormous forces acting on their bodies–particularly on the knee joint and hence the patellar tendon - during both the off-season preparation and in-season competition phases. However, factors influencing patellar tendon adaptation and regional pattern differences between alpine skiers and healthy controls are not yet fully understood, but are essential for deriving effective screening approaches and preventative countermeasures. Thirty elite competitive alpine skiers, all members of the Swiss Alpine Ski Team, and 38 healthy age-matched controls were recruited. A set of two-dimensional shear wave elastography measurements of the PT was acquired and projected into three-dimensional space yielding a volumetric representation of the shear wave velocity profile of the patellar tendon. Multivariate linear models served to quantify differences between the two cohorts and effects of other confounding variables with respect to regional shear wave velocity. A significant (p &lt; 0.001) intergroup difference was found between skiers (mean ± SD = 10.4 ± 1.32 m/s) and controls (mean ± SD = 8.9 ± 1.59 m/s). A significant sex difference was found within skiers (p = 0.024), but no such difference was found in the control group (p = 0.842). Regional SWV pattern alterations between skiers and controls were found for the distal region when compared to the mid-portion (p = 0.023). Competitive alpine skiers exhibit higher SWV in all PT regions than healthy controls, potentially caused by long-term adaptations to heavy tendon loading. The presence of sex-specific differences in PT SWV in skiers but not in controls indicates that sex effects have load-dependent dimensions. Alterations in regional SWV patterns between skiers and controls suggest that patellar tendon adaptation is region specific. In addition to the implementation of 3D SWE, deeper insights into long-term tendon adaptation and normative values for the purpose of preventative screening are provided.

ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to analyze long-term outcomes of Chinese coronary artery disease (CAD) patients with (and without) chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).BackgroundChronic obstructive pulmonary disease is a chronic condition which often develops in conjunction with CAD. PCI is a core therapy for CAD, although we still need to understand CAD-COPD outcomes and to identify factors that influence prognoses, across ethnicities.MethodsThis double-cohort study involved 12,343 Chinese CAD patients who received PCI. Baseline characteristics were collected in two independent, specialty centers. Propensity-score matching was performed to control confounding factors, using a nearest neighbor matching method within a 0.02 caliper and on a propensity score scale of 0.1 for each center. Comorbid CAD-COPD cases were compared to non-COPD patients in terms of major adverse cardiac events (MACEs).ResultsPatients with COPD were generally older than those without COPD (65.4 ± 9.2 vs. 58.2 ± 10.3, p &lt; 0.001). There were no significant differences in the end points between COPD and non-COPD groups after PCI (All p &gt; 0.05); however, the incidence of MACEs increased after 450 days. Further subgroup analysis suggests that COPD is approximately four times more prevalent among those aged over 75 years (HR, 3.818; 95%CI, 1.10–13.29; p = 0.027) and those aged below 55 years (HR = 4.254; 95% CI, 1.55–11.72; p = 0.003).ConclusionHaving COPD does not appear to have a significant impact on CAD outcomes 2 years after PCI, and beyond. However, an increasing number of MACEs was observed after 450 days, which suggests that there may be a double-stage effect of COPD on PCI prognosis. There is a need for focused comorbidity management, specifically for those aged below 55 years and above 75 years.

BackgroundA clinical study comparing the hemodynamic outcomes of transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) with vs. without Laceration of the Anterior Mitral leaflet to Prevent Outflow Obstruction (LAMPOON) has never been designed nor conducted.AimsTo quantify the hemodynamic impact of LAMPOON in TMVR using patient-specific computational (in silico) models.MaterialsEight subjects from the LAMPOON investigational device exemption trial were included who had acceptable computed tomography (CT) data for analysis. All subjects were anticipated to be at prohibitive risk of left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction from TMVR, and underwent successful LAMPOON immediately followed by TMVR. Using post-procedure CT scans, two 3D anatomical models were created for each subject: (1) TMVR with LAMPOON (performed procedure), and (2) TMVR without LAMPOON (virtual control). A validated computational fluid dynamics (CFD) paradigm was then used to simulate the hemodynamic outcomes for each condition.ResultsLAMPOON exposed on average 2 ± 0.6 transcatheter valve cells (70 ± 20 mm2 total increase in outflow area) which provided an additional pathway for flow into the LVOT. As compared to TMVR without LAMPOON, TMVR with LAMPOON resulted in lower peak LVOT velocity, lower peak LVOT gradient, and higher peak LVOT effective orifice area by 0.4 ± 0.3 m/s (14 ± 7% improvement, p = 0.006), 7.6 ± 10.9 mmHg (31 ± 17% improvement, p = 0.01), and 0.2 ± 0.1 cm2 (17 ± 9% improvement, p = 0.002), respectively.ConclusionThis was the first study to permit a quantitative, patient-specific comparison of LVOT hemodynamics following TMVR with and without LAMPOON. The LAMPOON procedure achieved a critical increment in outflow area which was effective for improving LVOT hemodynamics, particularly for subjects with a small neo-left ventricular outflow tract (neo-LVOT).

Published: June 2022

Background: Singleton–Merten syndrome type 1 (SGMRT1) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder caused by IFIH1 variations with blood vessel calcifications, teeth anomalies, and bone defects.Aim: We aimed to summarize the oral findings in SGMRT1 through a systematic review of the literature and to describe the phenotype of a 10-year-old patient with SGMRT1 diagnosis.Results: A total of 20 patients were described in the literature, in nine articles. Eight IFIH1 mutations were described in 11 families. Delayed eruption, short roots, and premature loss of permanent teeth were the most described features (100%). Impacted teeth (89%) and carious lesions (67%) were also described. Our patient, a 10-year-old male with Singleton–Merten syndrome, presented numerous carious lesions, severe teeth malposition, especially in the anterior arch, and an oral hygiene deficiency with a 100% plaque index. The panoramic X-ray did not show any dental agenesis but revealed very short roots and a decrease in the jaw alveolar bone height. The whole-genome sequencing analysis revealed a heterozygous de novo variant in IFIH1 (NM_022168.4) c.2465G &gt; A (p.Arg822Gln).Conclusion: Confused descriptions of oral features occurred in the literature between congenital findings and “acquired” pathology, especially carious lesions. The dental phenotype of these patients encompasses eruption anomalies (delayed eruption and impacted teeth) and lack of root edification, leading to premature loss of permanent teeth, and it may contribute to the diagnosis. An early diagnosis is essential to prevent teeth loss and to improve the quality of life of these patients.Systematic Review Registration: [https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/], identifier [CRD42022300025].
