Authors: Carvalho Carla Fabrine , Teixeira Julio Cesar , Bragança Joana Froes , Derchain Sophie , Zeferino Luiz Carlos , Vale Diama Bhadra 
Published: February 2022

AbstractThe present update is a reassessment of the 2018 ‘Guidelines for HPV-DNA Testing for Cervical Cancer Screening in Brazil’ (Zeferino et al.)9, according to the changes observed in new international guidelines and knowledge updates. The most relevant and recent guidelines were assessed. Questions regarding the clinical practice were formulated, and the answers considered the perspective of the public and private sectors of the Brazilian health system. The review addressed risk-based strategies regarding age to start and stop screening, the use of cytology and colposcopy to support management decisions, treatment, follow-up strategies, and screening in specific groups, including vaccinated women. The update aims to improve the prevention of cervical cancer and to reduce overtreatment and the misuse of HPV testing.

Resumo
Objetivo Avaliar a correlação do conceito de glenoid track e da perda óssea da cavidade glenoidal com a taxa de recidiva de luxação e pontuação na escala de Rowe.
Métodos Estudo retrospectivo que aferiu o glenoid track e a perda óssea da cavidade glenoidal por ressonância magnética pré-operatória. Foram incluídos pacientes submetidos a reparo artroscópico primário de Bankart anterior. Não foram incluídos pacientes com perda óssea da cavidade glenoidal maior que 21%, rotura do manguito rotador, fratura de cintura escapular, instabilidade posterior ou multidirecional. A pontuação pela escala de Rowe foi o desfecho primário, e a taxa de recidiva foi o desfecho secundário.
Resultados Cento e dois pacientes foram incluídos. A recidiva foi relatada por 8 pacientes (7,8%). Quatro pacientes (50%) do grupo com recidiva apresentaram lesão da cavidade glenoidal maior que 13,5% contra 24 (25,5%) do grupo sem recidiva (p = 0,210), com valor preditivo negativo de 94,6%. Três pacientes (37,5%) do grupo com recidiva foram considerados off-track, contra 13 (13,8%) do grupo sem recidiva (p = 0,109), com valor preditivo negativo de 94,2%. Pacientes com valor absoluto do glenoid track menor ou igual a 1,5 mm tiveram piores resultados em relação ao grupo com recidiva, sendo que 6 pacientes (75%) apresentaram recidiva (p = 0,003).
Conclusão Lesão off-track e perda óssea da cavidade glenoidal maior que a subcrítica não apresentam relação significativa com a taxa de recidiva e a pontuação de Rowe, apesar do alto valor preditivo negativo. O corte do valor absoluto do glenoid track em 1,5 mm apresentou relação significativa com a taxa de recidiva.

ResumoO pé em espelho é uma anomalia congênita rara, pertencente ao espectro das polidactilias complexas dos pés. Pode ocorrer isoladamente ou associado a outras malformações ou síndromes genéticas. Trata-se de um tema pouco descrito na literatura, com escassas publicações acerca do seu tratamento. Relatamos o caso de uma paciente de 4 anos de idade que apresentava pé esquerdo com 8 dedos, sem outras deformidades associadas, cujas queixas incluíam a impossibilidade de usar calçados fechados e estigma social. Radiograficamente, verificou-se a presença de oito metatarsos com suas respectivas falanges, cinco ossos cuneiformes, e ausência de deformidades ósseas no retropé. Optou-se pela abordagem cirúrgica visando uma melhoria funcional e estética, bem como melhor adaptação ao uso de calçados fechados, conforme desejo da paciente e família. Realizou-se incisão em V dorsal e plantar com ressecção de três raios supranumerários, incluindo três metatarsos centrais com suas nove falanges correspondentes, dois ossos cuneiformes, tendões e nervos digitais extras, seguidas da sutura dos ligamentos intermetatarsais, preservando os dedos com aparência normal, diminuindo a largura do pé, e mantendo seu apoio adequado. A redução foi mantida por fixação transmetatarsal com fios de Kirschner. O pós-operatório seguiu com uso de tala bota e carga zero, sem intercorrências, retirando-se os fios de Kirschner e liberando carga no membro após doze semanas.

Abstract
Objective A preliminary study was conducted to assess the role of Tinospora sinensis extract on liver in mice in normal and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced health-compromised conditions.
Method Mice (n = 3–5) were randomly assigned into groups I to IV for hepatotoxic studies. Group I was assigned normal, group II was given LPS (6 mg/kg, intraperitoneal [ip]), group III was given T. sinensis only (1 g/kg/day for 21 days), whereas group IV was administered T. sinensis (1 g/kg/day per os [po] for 21 days) with LPS (6 mg/kg ip given on 7th day). Group V received monocrotaline (MCT) (200 mg/kg, p.o.) only. Group VI received MCT (200 mg/kg, po) and LPS (6 mg/kg ip). Group VII was given T. sinensis (500 mg/kg/day po for 7 days) followed by MCT (200 mg/kg, p.o.) and LPS (6 mg/kg, ip) on the 7th day. Groups V to VII were used to assess the effect of T. sinensis in MCT + LPS-induced hepatotoxicity model.
Results No elevation in alanine transaminase (ALT) levels was observed in mice treated with T. sinensis in group III or group IV compared with normal (vehicle treated) group (group I). Elevation in ALT levels was observed in group VI (MCT + LPS) and group VII; histopathology showed liver injury. Pretreatment of mice with T. sinensis (group VII) did not show any reduction in the elevated ALT levels.
Conclusions In the preliminary assessment, T. sinensis extract was found to exhibit neither hepatotoxicity itself nor the potential to thwart liver damage by a xenobiotic under the given test conditions, dosage, and duration of the study.

Published: February 2022

AbstractThis case report describes the use of a Z-plasty tenotomy and anastomosis to surgically lengthen the deep digital flexor (DDF) tendons of digits 2 to 5 of the pelvic limb in a 6-year-old male castrated Greyhound. The procedure was used to treat contracture of this tendon complex which developed after a series of complications secondary to proximal osteotomies utilized for the treatment of cranial cruciate ligament rupture. The dog was evaluated for lameness associated with left cranial cruciate ligament rupture and excessive tibial plateau slope; accordingly, a combined tibial plateau levelling osteotomy and cranial closing wedge ostectomy was performed. Postoperatively, the dog developed substantial DDF tendon contracture that led to severe digital hyperflexion and contributed to a non-weight bearing lameness. The dog received intensive rehabilitation therapy but failed to substantially improve; therefore, all of the weight-bearing left hindlimb DDF tendons were lengthened with a Z-plasty tenotomy and anastomosis followed by further rehabilitation. Follow-up evaluation 44 months postoperatively documented mild, intermittent left hindlimb lameness on gait observation and confirmed success of the Z-plasty procedure via ultrasonographic evaluation. Conservative treatment alone was unsuccessful in managing DDF tendon contracture in this dog. Z-plasty tenotomy and anastomosis of the DDF tendon allowed for return-to-acceptable function in this case.

Resumo
Objetivo A curetagem estendida com adjuvantes de tumores de células gigantes do osso está associada a uma menor taxa de recidiva da neoplasia e à preservação da articulação adjacente. Este estudo foi feito para estimar a taxa de recidiva e o resultado funcional após o uso de plasma de argônio como adjuvante à curetagem estendida.
Métodos Cinquenta pacientes com tumores de células gigantes que atendiam a todos os critérios de inclusão foram selecionados para o estudo e submetidos à curetagem estendida com broca de alta velocidade e fotocoagulação com plasma de argônio entre julho de 2016 e janeiro de 2019. À consulta de acompanhamento, os pacientes foram avaliados quanto a quaisquer queixas de dor e sinais como sensibilidade, aumento local da temperatura e diminuição da amplitude de movimento da articulação adjacente. Radiologicamente, os pacientes foram avaliados quanto à presença de qualquer aumento de radiotransparência ao redor do manto de cimento e incorporação do enxerto subarticular. O questionário Musculoskeletal Tumor Society Score (MSTS) foi administrado aos pacientes e a amplitude de movimentação da articulação adjacente foi comparada à articulação contralateral.
Resultados Quatro pacientes apresentaram recidiva, o que corresponde a uma taxa de 8%. Seis meses após a cirurgia, 26 de 28 pacientes com tumor no membro inferior tinham capacidade de sustentação de peso de grau 5 e amplitude de movimento comparável à articulação saudável contralateral, com pontuação MSTS média de 27 (intervalo de 18 a 30).
Conclusão A curetagem estendida de tumores de células gigantes com coagulação por plasma de argônio está associada a baixas taxas de recidiva da neoplasia; é uma modalidade eficaz no tratamento desses tumores e o resultado funcional é comparável ao do membro saudável.

Lucerne (Medicago sativa L.) is a major perennial forage legume worldwide. In Greece, new cultivars have been introduced mainly from the USA, Australia and Italy. However, some of these cultivars have not been tested locally before their widespread release. A field experiment was conducted from 2013 to 2016 in central Greece to compare the performance of 22 lucerne genotypes, including both local Greek and introduced genotypes, under irrigated Mediterranean conditions. There were three harvests in 2013 and five in each of the following years. Measurements included annual and total dry matter (DM) yield, harvest ratios, quality traits and agronomic parameters. Yields after the second year declined by 11.9–26.4%, possibly due to summer heat stress and reduced plant survival. However, several semi-winter-active cultivars were more persistent (by 19.4%) than highly winter-active cultivars. Three local, semi-winter-active cultivars and one introduced highly winter-active cultivar were the top performers for total DM yield (63.8–67.3 t DM/ha). Forage nutritive values showed small differences among cultivars. Evaluation of seasonal yield distribution was effective for comparing adaptive responses of genotypes in relation to the winter activity effect. Spring harvest ratio was more indicative (r = 0.92) of genotype total DM yield than was plant survival (r = 0.70). Specifically, highly winter-active cultivars showed higher autumn and spring harvests (by 36.4% and 7.9%, respectively) than semi-winter-active cultivars, which produced higher summer yields (by 35.7%). A regional program to breed more winter-active genotypes, which can capitalise on the longer preceding season with greater stand persistence, heat tolerance, summer productivity and height (>82 cm) and with more nodes (>18), could be beneficial for forage yield increase under the anticipated climatic changes.

The wheat Green Revolution Rht-B1b and Rht-D1b dwarfing alleles are associated with increased grain yields but also with reduced early growth and seedling emergence, especially if sowing conditions are unfavourable. The gibberellic acid-responsive, mutagen-derived Rht18 dwarfing gene was backcrossed from durum wheat (Triticum turgidum subsp. durum L.) cv. Icaro into tall bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cv. Halberd using phenotypic selection for reduced plant height. The Rht18 allele was confirmed among homozygous BC1F2-derived, F5:7 recombinant inbred lines by using a chromosome 6AS-linked, microsatellite molecular marker (Xwms4608), and then assessed for agronomic performance across multiple field sites ranging in yield from 3.6 to 6.4 t/ha. The Rht18-containing lines were significantly (P < 0.05) shorter in height (−24%) and reduced in plant lodging (−51%) compared with tall sister lines. Reductions in plant height were associated with significant increases in grain yield (+16%), reflecting increases in grain number (+21%), number of spikes (+7%) and number of grains per spike (+12%). Coleoptile length, early shoot biomass and ground cover percentage were unaffected by the presence of the Rht18 dwarfing gene. Comparisons of effects of gibberellic acid-insensitive Rht-B1b and Rht18 on early growth and agronomic performance were assessed separately for a set of 30 BC5F6-derived Halberd near-isogenic lines in the field in 2015. Ground cover and coleoptile length were significantly greater for Rht18 lines, whereas plant height, lodging, harvest index, grain number and yield were similar for Rht-B1b and Rht18 sister lines. Reduced lodging and increased grain number and yield, together with greater coleoptile length, indicate a potentially useful role for Rht18 in improving wheat performance.
Differential object marking, oblique morphology, and enriched case hierarchies
Authors: Irimia Monica Alexandrina 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
The puzzle of oblique morphology on differentially marked objects (dom) has received renewed attention in the recent formal literature, under two main theoretical lines: (i) oblique syntax for dom (Manzini & Franco 2016, 2019, inter alii; (ii) oblique marking on dom as morphological syncretism (Keine & Müller 2008; Keine 2010; Bárány 2018, inter alii). This paper evaluates the predictions made by these accounts against a limited set of Romance dom varieties, crucially including both dom as dative (Western Romance) and dom as a non-dative adposition (Romanian). A specific syntactic implementation for oblique dom is proposed, building on the idea of additional licensing in certain types of accusatives, combined with enriched case hierarchies (Starke 2017). This not only preserves the advantages of the above-mentioned accounts, but also opens up the path to addressing several less-studied or recalcitrant (micro)variation points.
On the interpretation of the Spanish 1st person plural pronoun*
Authors: Jiménez-Fernández Ángel L. , Tubino-Blanco Mercedes 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
We explore the connection between the clause left periphery and the referential values of inclusion or exclusion of the addressee associated with Spanish 1st Person Plural pronoun nosotros, otherwise morphologically marked in many world languages. We examine the referential values of nosotros in clauses marked with different topics and foci regarding the inclusive/exclusive interpretation of the pronoun. We observe, contra Posio (2012), that overt nosotros doesn’t always involve exclusivity. The exclusive interpretation of the pronoun is nonetheless required in contexts typically declarative and non-contrastive (i.e., out-of-the-blue, thetic), and its overt use is perceived as odd if the Addressee is intended to be included. In Aboutness-Shift Topic and Given Topic contexts the clusive interpretation of the pronoun is obtained from the immediate context (i.e., whether the Addressee is active). Similarly, contrastive topics or foci include the presence of the Addressee in the immediate context as one of their points of contrast. To account for the influence of the immediate context on the interpretation of the pronominal values of clusivity we propose an analysis based on the projection of a Speech Act Phrase (SAP) (Speas & Tenny 2003) in combination with a Logophoric Center (Bianchi 2003) above the clausal left periphery (CP). In our analysis, the pronoun nosotros has an [Addressee] feature that is valued according to the availability of the Addressee in the left-most left periphery. Our formalization of clusivity assumes that interpretation is read off syntax (Haegeman & Hill 2013).
Formality by distance in Spanish and Catalan
Authors: Bembridge Gavin , Peters Andrew 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
Unlike the pragmatic literature, a pronoun’s ability to distinguish levels of formality has received relatively little dedicated attention in the syntactic literature. One definition of formality from the politeness literature defines it as social distance (Brown & Levinson 1987). We take the idea that formality can be viewed as distance literally and argue that second-person pronouns can incorporate Harbour’s (2016) projection, χ, that encodes spatial semantics. Variation in second-person pronouns results from differences in each language’s specific pronominal resources and the social meanings they are assigned.
Exceptionality and ungrammaticality in Spanish stress
Authors: Tetzloff Katerina 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
Regular Spanish stress is stem-final, but many exceptions exist. Though exceptions must be accounted for, they must not yield ungrammaticality. The current proposal distinguishes exceptionality from ungrammaticality by arguing for some degree of quantity sensitivity in Spanish stress assignment. Past approaches that do not take syllable weight into account predict that a nonce input, like rapind-o, if marked as exceptional, will bear ungrammatical, antepenultimate stress (*rápindo). This proposal resolves this by analyzing Spanish stress using Stratal OT, where Regular stress is stem-final. Lexically-indexed constraints allow for each of the exceptional stress patterns, without yielding ungrammatical forms. An exceptional nonce input like rapind-o appropriately receives penultimate stress (rapíndo) regardless of if it is marked as exceptional, thus not conflating exceptionality with ungrammaticality.
De keunst fan it oersetten

Abstract
This article considers the art of translating from Dutch into Frisian by Jarich Hoekstra and Harke Bremer in De Grutte Barribal, a translation of one of the adventures of Ollie B. Bommel, a fictive gentleman created by Maarten Toonder and well-known in the Netherlands. I make an in-depth comparison and analysis of a sample of Dutch sentences and their Frisian translations. The success of the translation resides in the following factors: (1) the translation is more specific, more sensorial or more subjective than what is conveyed by the somewhat more abstract Dutch language; (2) in specifying things, the translators have a perfect feeling of contextual information, based on a correct estimation of the plot and the characters. My observations link up with the view of translation as the rendering of spirit and style (Brogan 1993; for theory construction, see also Nida & Taber 1969; Venuti 2012, 2013; Verstegen 1993).
Der an’t-Progressiv im Saterfriesischen
Authors: Laker Stephen , Kramer Pyt 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
Progressive constructions have been studied across a range of West Germanic languages but not yet in Saterland Frisian. Over five-hundred sentences of the an’t-progressive, collected from Saterland Frisian spoken and written materials, form the core of this study. Based on the surveyed material, the main characteristics of the construction are identified and explained: usage, types of verbs employed, noun incorporation, and how the an’t-progressive interacts with the postural verb progressive construction. The research complements earlier studies that investigated equivalents of the an’t-progressive construction in West Frisian and North Frisian as well as in varieties of German, Dutch and Afrikaans.
Die Entwicklung von protogermanischem *ai im Niederdeutschen
Authors: Versloot Arjen P. 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
The twofold development in Old Frisian of Proto-Germanic *ai into ā and ē contrasts with the nearly uniform rendering as 〈e〉 in Old Saxon. It has, however, been pointed out that this Old Saxon ē
2, spelled 〈e〉, shows a phonemic split in the modern Low German dialects, whose origin may go back to the period of monophthongization of *ai. The hypothesis was formulated that this split may have run along similar lines as the one in Old Frisian, bringing the development of Frisian and Saxon much closer together. Scrutiny of 20th-century attestations of Low German words with PGmc. *ai indicates that the split in Old Saxon primarily followed the same conditioning as the split between ei and ē in Old High German. However, incidental lexemes and instances of shortening show a closer proximity to Frisian, constituting a continuum from Frisian to High German with respect to this development.
The closed vowels in West Frisian revisited
Authors: Visser Willem 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
In most of the literature on West Frisian, it is assumed that this language has a symmetrical vowel system, consisting of nine short and nine corresponding long vowels. These vowels all occur in minimal pairs, meaning that this distinction has phonemic value. This traditional view was challenged in De Haan (1999), where an asymmetrical classification is proposed in which the closed vowels /i/, /y/ and /u/, in spite of their short duration, are considered to be long vowels. In this paper, I want to assess the pros and cons of this asymmetrical classification, add some new arguments in favour of it, and come up with a representation of /i/, /y/ and /u/ which captures both their phonological length and phonetic duration.
Probing the generalized uncertainty principle through quantum noises in optomechanical systems
Authors: Sen Soham , Bhattacharyya Sukanta , Gangopadhyay Sunandan 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
In this work we have considered a simple mechanical oscillator interacting with a single mode optical field inside a cavity in the generalized uncertainty principle (GUP) framework. Our aim is to calculate the modified noise spectrum and observe the effects of the GUP. The commutation relation that we have considered has an extra linear order momentum term along with a quadratic order term. Confronting our theoretical results with the observational results, we observe that we get a much tighter bound on the GUP parameters from the noise spectrum using the values of the system parameters from different experiments.
Computer simulations of self-assembly of anisotropic colloids

Published: February 2022

Abstract
Computer simulations have played a significant role in understanding the physics of colloidal self-assembly, interpreting experimental observations, and predicting novel mesoscopic and crystalline structures. Recent advances in computer simulations of colloidal self-assembly driven by anisotropic or orientation-dependent inter-particle interactions are highlighted in this review. These interactions are broadly classified into two classes: entropic and enthalpic interactions. They mainly arise due to shape anisotropy, surface heterogeneity, compositional heterogeneity, external field, interfaces, and confinements. Key challenges and opportunities in the field are discussed.
