Authors: Guinsburg Ruth , de Almeida Maria Fernanda B. , Finan Emer , Perlman Jeffrey M. , Wyllie Jonathan , Liley Helen G. , Wyckoff Myra H. , Isayama Tetsuya 
Published: March 2022

CONTEXT
For many years the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation has recommended the use of tactile stimulation for initial management of infants born with inadequate respiratory effort at birth without systematically examining its effectiveness.

OBJECTIVE
Systematic review to compare the effectiveness of tactile stimulation with routine handling in newly born term and preterm infants.

DATA SOURCES
Medline, Embase, Cochrane CENTRAL, along with clinical trial registries.

STUDY SELECTION
Randomized and non-randomized studies were included based on predetermined criteria.

DATA EXTRACTION
Data were extracted independently by authors. Risk of Bias in Nonrandomized Studies of Interventions (ROBINS-I) was used to assess risk of bias in non-randomized studies. Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluations (GRADE) was used to assess the certainty of evidence.

RESULTS
Among 2455 unique articles identified, 2 observational studies were eligible and qualitatively summarized. Because one of the studies was at critical risk of bias, only the other study including 243 preterm infants on continuous positive airway pressure with clinical indications for tactile stimulation was analyzed. It showed a reduction in tracheal intubation in infants receiving tactile stimulation compared with no tactile stimulation (12 of 164 vs 14 of 79, risk ratio of 0.41 [95% confidence interval 0.20 to 0.85]); however, the certainty of evidence was very low.

LIMITATIONS
The available data were limited and only from observational studies.

CONCLUSIONS
A potential benefit of tactile stimulation was identified but was limited by the very low certainty of evidence. More research is suggested to evaluate the effectiveness as well as the optimal type and duration of tactile stimulation.
Recursos naturales, empresas multinacionales y proyectos nacionales: Las multinacionales como el “otro necesario” en la América Latina (1900-1954)
Authors: Conejo Barboza Luis 
Published: March 2022

El presente artículo busca estudiar el conflicto que originó la representación de la naturaleza ejercida entre las empresas multinacionales estadounidenses y el nacionalismo de los países latinoamericanos desarrollado entre los años 1900 – 1954. La mayoría de estudios existentes acerca del nacionalismo, se enfocan en analizar los aspectos políticos y de educación en la formación del discurso nacionalista, de forma similar, los estudios de la representación de la naturaleza por parte de los estados nacionales, se han centrado en el enfoque y categoría de conflictos ambientales. Lo que propone el presente trabajo, es estudiar cómo la representación de la naturaleza pudo generar ciertos conflictos entre los intereses nacionales y los intereses de algunas empresas multinacionales, dejando claro que la relación entre estos actores era sumamente dinámica.

Abstract
The information about the clinical features of Leishmania infantum infection in cats is scarce. In this study, we evaluated the serum protein electrophoresis of samples from 19 infected but apparently healthy cats. To detect L. infantum infection, two serological tests, i.e. western blot (WB) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) as well as quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) on the blood samples were performed. Eventual infection by several selected bacterial and viral pathogens was also tested. All but one of the cats were found positive with WB. The WB-negative cat was positive by ELISA only. From the 18 WB-positive cats, only three were positive also by ELISA and eight with qPCR, including the only animal which was positive in all the three tests. No concomitant infections were detected in any of the cats. The main alteration of the proteinogram was characterised by an increase of the α-2 fraction. In the five cats with hypergammaglobulinaemia, the pattern detected was polyclonal. None of the cats were seropositive to any other pathogens tested. The presence of polyclonal gammopathy and elevation of the α-2 fraction could suggest the presence of active infection. In contrast, the only detection of an increase of the α-2 fraction alone with the presence of positive serological result could be associated by immune response activation against L. infantum.
A literature review on COVID-19 [coronavirus] research specific to Australia including manuscripts on policy and media releases.
Authors: Hilton Deborah Joy 
Published: March 2022

INTRODUCTION / OBJECTIVES: Comprehending the avalanche of statistical research on COVID-19 [coronavirus] is laborious. Predictions, forecasts, and diagnostic algorithms are important for planning, allocation, and meeting the needs of the increasing population disease burden. Statisticians must be aware of spreadsheets, databases, and calculation methodology to produce valid estimates. Policymakers, government officials, and planners interpret results and read reports without knowing calculation intricacies. Health care workers must be aware of scientific websites whilst they are under increasing stress due to aging populations and improved technology. It is important that context-specific information is sought, read, and understood. METHODS: A literature review was undertaken to find context-specific statistical research information on COVID-19. The author performed a Pubmed search, a search utilising the coronavirus MeSH terms (Medical Subject Headings), adding the additional MeSH terms of Australia AND policy, and then another search with media as a text word.
RESULTS: The Pubmed search, utilising the MeSH (Medical Subject Headings) on coronavirus, adding the MeSH terms [Australia AND Policy] resulted in 52 records being retrieved. The Australian Government Department of Health website dedicated link listing coronavirus (COVID-19) news reports, statements, and media releases included 347 departmental media retrievals. CONCLUSION: The COVID-19 pandemic has posed itself as the most critical health issue of the 21st century. It is important to understand the quality evidence-based information within the context, specific to the reason for seeking information so that well-informed decisions are made that relate to preventative actions, early detection, and treatment options.

The by-pass system of exhaust gas for the engine 6L20 Wartsila has been observed. The requirements of Annex VI MARPOL towards nitrogen oxide concentration in ship engine exhaust gases have been provided. The purpose of research was the determination of diesel 6L20 Wartsila by-pass exhaust gases optimum volume – at this the nitrogen oxide minimal concentration in exhaust gases is assured, the minimal increase (comparing with operation mode without by-pass) – specific effective fuel consumption, supporting of necessary thermal factor diapason of engine cylinders. The research was performed for the exhaust gas by-pass diapason 0…10 % with engine load diapason 0.55…0.85 % from nominal power. Upon experimental results it has been stated that the exhaust gas by-pass usage favors the ecological parameters of ships engine operation modes – by this at the range of exploitation load 0.55…0.85 % from nominal power the nitrogen oxide concentration in exhaust gas is decreased to 1.32….12.97 %. The exhaust gas by-pass impairs the combustion process and favors the increasing of specific effective fuel consumption and increasing the temperature of exhaust gases. The exhaust gas by-pass system effectiveness assessment should be performed by complex estimation of the following engine operation parameters: the nitrogen oxide concentration in exhaust gas, increasing of specific effective fuel consumption(SFOC), the exhaust gas temperature. As optimal degree of exhaust gas by-pass value when the maximum decrease of nitrogen oxide emission at minimal increase of fuel consumption and simultaneous engine thermal factor handling has to be considered.

Published: March 2022

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the effect of glide path preparation before shaping with reciprocating single-file, rotary single-file and multiple-file systems on the debris extrusion from the apical, and on the root canal transportation.
Materials and Methods: One hundred twenty curved mesial root canals of mandibular first molars were randomly distributed to six groups (n=20). The root canals were prepared with Reciproc in Group R, OneShape in Group OS, and ProTaper Next in Group PN. In the last three groups (RG, OSG and PNG), a glide path was created before the shaping instruments used in the first 3 groups. The pre- and post-preparation weight were measured by using a 10-5 microbalance. Pre- and post-preparation of the root canals were scanned by using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT).
Results: The debris extrusion in RG and OSG was significantly higher than R and OS, respectively. However, no significant differences were found between PN and PNG. Considering the root canal transportation, RG showed lower than R for 5 mm and 7 mm levels and the OSG group showed lower than OS for all levels. Creating a glide path significantly increased the shaping time for OS and PN groups.
Conclusion: In advance of shaping with a single-file system in curved canals, creating a glide path preserves canal anatomy. However, it may lead to increase apical debris extrusion.

Authors: ASLAN Serdar , ÇAKIR İsmet Miraç 
Published: March 2022

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the types and incidence of renal vein anomaly (RVA) and their relationship with renal stone disease and renal tumors with multidetector computed tomography (MDCT).
Materials and Methods: We evaluated retrospectively 10124 patients abdominal MDCT images. After the exclusion criteria, the final study population consisted of 9294 patients. The demographic characteristics of the patients, the presence of RVA, the presence of renal stone disease and renal tumor were recorded. RVAs were separated into three subgroups: retroaortic left renal vein (RLRV), circumaortic left renal vein (CLRV), and double right renal vein (DRRV). The presence of renal stone disease and renal tumors were recorded in patients with RVAs.
Results: 1389 cases had RVA (14.9%). RVA was higher in males than females. The prevalence of DRRV, RLRV, and CLRV were 9.5%, 3.9%, and 1.9%, respectively. Renal tumors was detected in 20, and renal stone disease was detected in 243 of 1389 RVA cases, there was no statistically significant correlation. However, a statistically significant correlation was found between left renal stone disease with RLRV and CRLV.
Conclusion: Contrary to popular belief, RVAs are not uncommon. It is very important to know the presence of RVA before retroperitoneal surgery to prevent possible complications. In addition, RLRV and CLRV are thought to be factors that predispose to the development of left renal stone disease.

Published: March 2022

Purpose: The goal of this study is to explain the characteristics of COVID-19 in this demographic, as well as the impact it had on pediatric cancer care during the pandemic.
Materials and Methods: Fifteen COVID-19 patients diagnosed were studied retrospectively. Clinical, laboratory and radiological data were collected in relation to 15 patients under the age of 18 who tested positive for Sars-CoV-2.
Results: Of the 12117 pediatric hemato-oncological patients tested for COVID-19, 1125 patients showed symptoms, and 14 tested positive. The majority of cases suffered minor illnesses. A total of ten children required inpatient care, five needed oxygen support, and four required mechanical ventilation and later died. It was noted that the duration of real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) positivity was prolonged in patients receiving intensive chemotherapy and/or immunosuppressive therapy. Patients’ chemotherapy was delayed in all 15 (100%) Sars-CoV-2-positive patients. Although changes visible on chest computed tomography (CT) imaging of children were mainly milder than in adults, radiological findings were more severe in patients who received relatively intensive cancer treatment.
Conclusion: Children who have been treated for cancer or who have undergone a hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) may be at greater risk of severe COVID-19 and should be under constant observation.
Are mucocutaneous lesions seasonal in Behçet's disease?
Authors: FETTAHLIOĞLU KARAMAN Bilge 
Published: March 2022

Purpose: Although it is worth to investigate seasonality in a disease that has a recurrent course, this issue has not been dealt with sufficiently for Behçet’s disease. The aim of the study was to evaluate whether or not frequencies of its mucocutaneous attacks varied between months of the year.
Materials and Methods: One hundred eight patients with Behçet’s disease were retrospectively evaluated in terms of attacks of oral aphthae, genital ulcers, and erythema nodosum. For their each visit, a four-week period preceded this visit and dates of attack onsets in this period were taken into consideration. Then, by using them, mean monthly attack numbers were calculated for time series analysis.
Results: Although mean monthly attack numbers were higher in May and October for oral aphthae and in August for genital ulcers, seasonalities were not verified by time series analysis.
Conclusion: After a literature search on PubMed, there is only one study that detected no seasonality for mucocutaneous lesions of Behçet’s disease, and only one study detected a seasonality for oral aphthae. However, it is worth noting that time series analysis is not utilized in these studies. Since the present study is retrospective, its results should be verified by diary-based prospective studies that include time series analysis.

Published: March 2022

Purpose: The aim of this study as to compare microscopy and culture results of samples, determine drug resistance rates of the isolates, evaluate epidemiological relationship between the strains with ERIC-PCR, RAPD-PCR, OUT-PCR based on in house PCR technique.
Materials and Methods: Direct microscopy and culture results of 2010 samples were analyzed. Drug sensitivity results were obtained from TULSA. The typing of isolates based on in house PCR was carried out in the microbiology laboratory of a faculty of medicine in a state university.
Results: Of positive samples, 2.68% had Acid-resistant bacilli (ARB) positive + culture positivity, 2.93% had ARB positive and culture negative in smear, and 1.34% had ARB negative and culture positivity in smear. Resistance to primary antituberculous (anti-TB) drugs wasn’t observed in 33 culture positive isolates, whereas resistance to one or more primary anti-TB drugs was observed in 9.09%. Single drug resistance was 3.03%, resistance to Isoniazid (INH) and INH critical drugs was 6.06%. Isolates were divided 3 groups by ERIC-PCR, 5 groups for OUT-PCR and 6 by RAPD-PCR.
Conclusion: Positivity rates were low due to low rate of studied samples, negative samples taken during treatment process. Molecular techniques like ERIC-PCR, RAPD-PCR and OUT-PCR are easy, fast and inexpensive methods for the epidemiological typing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) in evaluating distinctions, similarities between origins.

Published: March 2022

I present observations on the nest, nestlings and parental care of the Brown-bellied Swallow Orochelidon murina in La Armenia, 7 km southeast of Quito, province of Pichincha, Ecuador. I observed the nest from 26 April-21 May 2020, every other day for 1.5-2 h, with a total of 20 h of observation. The nest was located in a drainpipe at 2.15 m above ground, in a wall surrounding a residence. The drainpipe had a diameter of 10 cm and a depth of 25 cm. The nest, which covered the drainpipe"™s entire length, consisted of a shallow mound of vegetal fibers, feathers and feces of the nest dweller. Clutch size was three and nestling period at least 25 days. Nestlings were fed on average 8 times/h (SD = 3.4; n = 11) over the observation period.The overall mean interval between visits was 5.3 min (SD = 5.4; n = 106) and mean visit time 0.3 min (SD = 0.9; n = 103). A third adult was observed around the nest on several occasions, but no active role in nestlings"™ care could be determined.

Political participation and perceptions of justice and fairness: evidence from ESS data
Authors: Simonaityte Vitalija , Sarkute Ligita 
Published: March 2022

There is a huge gap in research about the connection between political participation and perception of justice and fairness since few authors have analysed this phenomenon. The purpose of this article is to analyse the connection between political participation and people’s perception of fairness and justice, using a representative sample of the European Social Survey (ESS). This article is based on European Social Survey data of the 9th Round. Interviews were carried out with 47,086 respondents aged 15 and over in 27 European countries. The method of statistical data analysis was the correlation analysis of measures of political participation and measures of perceptions and evaluations of justice and fairness (Pearson’s r coefficient). From the results of the study, it was concluded that people participating in all political activities more often agree that society is fair when the political system allows people to have a say in what the government does.
