Authors: Abiuso Federico Luis , Kleidermacher Gisele 
Published: July 2022

En este artículo proponemos analizar las interacciones entre las fuerzas de seguridad y la población de origen senegalés que tienen lugar en la vía pública en la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires (CABA). La investigación se realiza a partir de la sistematización de datos cuantitativos provenientes de diversos informes, así como de entrevistas realizadas a personas de la comunidad, dada la relevancia de recuperar su propia voz y percepción. Los datos dan cuenta de situaciones de violencia institucional que pesan con intensidad en la comunidad de origen senegalés, como parte de relaciones de racialización que se producen con mayor fuerza en dos espacios de la ciudad.

Abstract
In this article, we propose to analyze the interactions between the security forces and the Senegalese population that take place on public roads in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires (CABA). The methodology includes the systematization of quantitative data from reports from various institutions, as well as interviews with people from the community since it is relevant to recover their own voices and perception. The results reveal situations of institutional violence that weigh heavily on the community of Senegalese origin as part of racialization relations that occur with greater force in two areas of the city.

Introduction. Metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is a hepatic manifestation of metabolic syndrome (MS). MAFLD patients have a higher prevalence of COVID-19. MAFLD is also associated with worse clinical outcomes of COVID-19, such as disease severity, ICU admission rate, and higher mortality rates. However, this evidence has not been well characterized in the literature. This meta-analysis aims to determine the clinical outcomes of COVID-19 among MAFLD patients compared to the non-MAFLD group.
Methods. A comprehensive search was conducted in CINAHL, PubMed/Medline, and Embase for studies reporting MAFLD prevalence among COVID-19 patients and comparing clinical outcomes such as severity, ICU admission, and mortality among patients with and without MAFLD. We calculated the pooled prevalence of MAFLD among COVID-19 patients. Also, the pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated for clinical outcomes of COVID-19.
Results. Twenty observational studies met inclusion criteria involving 13,036 overall study participants, including 2,374 MAFLD patients. The prevalence of COVID-19 among MAFLD patients was 0.28 (95% CI: 0.19-0.39). MAFLD was associated with the COVID-19 disease severity OR: 2.61 (95% CI: 1.77-3.83). Similarly, MAFLD was associated with an increased risk of ICU admission compared to the non-MAFLD group OR: 1.46 (95% CI: 1.12-1.91). Lastly, the association between MAFLD and COVID-19 mortality was not statistically significant OR: 1.25 (95% CI: 0.66-2.37).
Conclusions. There was a higher prevalence of MAFLD among COVID-19 patients than the non-MAFLD group. Moreover, MAFLD patients had an increased risk of COVID-19 disease severity and ICU admission rate.
Cytotoxic lesion of the corpus callosum in a patient with aphasic status epilepticus
Authors: Castiglione Juan Ignacio , Ricciardi Mario Emiliano , Bensi Catalina 
Published: July 2022

A 47-year-old man with a history of aphasic seizures presented to the emergency room with a 12-hour global aphasia. Upon admission, brain MRI did not reveal acute lesions, and EEG showed sharp waves in the left frontal-temporal region. An Aphasic Status Epilepticus was diagnosed and antiepileptic treatment was initiated with adequate response. A week after the episode, a new brain MRI showed a high-signal ovoid lesion on T2-weighted and FLAIR sequences in the central part of the splenium of the corpus callosum. On diffusion-weighted images (DWI) the lesion was hyperintense with decreased apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values, indicating restricted diffusion consistent with a cytotoxic lesion of the corpus callosum (CLOCC). Follow-up MRI one month later showed complete image resolution. CLOCCs are secondary lesions associated with various entities in which high levels of cytokines and extracellular glutamate cause intracellular edema and reduced diffusion, a condition called cytotoxic edema, which affects vulnerable brain regions such as the splenium of the corpus callosum. In epileptic patients, CLOCCs may be due to the effect of seizures, especially prolonged ones, as well as antiepileptic treatment itself. CLOCCs are rare radiological findings and must be recognized to avoid misdiagnosis.

Authors: Lindsay Sarah E. , Hutchison Catherine , Andeen Nicole , Yang Scott 
Published: July 2022

Case:
A 5-year-old previously healthy girl sustained a left proximal humerus fracture after a fall from a trampoline. The injury was initially treated nonoperatively, but during routine follow-up, the patient was found to have a previously unrecognized bony erosion at the fracture site. Workup was negative for neoplasm but instead demonstrated Salmonella osteomyelitis. The patient underwent debridement and treatment with antibiotics.

Conclusion:
This is an unusual presentation of a humerus fracture in a child with concomitant Salmonella osteomyelitis. Osteomyelitis is an important diagnostic consideration when considering bony erosions in the pediatric patient, even in those patients without apparent risk factors.
THA with Use of Patient-Specific Resurfacing Jigs and a Novel Customized Implant Design

Published: July 2022

» Conventional total hip arthroplasty (THA) largely remains an unguided procedure dependent on the ability and experience of the surgeon. New technologies, such as patient-specific instrumentation and robotics, have shown promising results in improving implant positioning, which has the potential to improve patient outcomes.» The use of off-the-shelf (OTS) implant designs, however, limits the success of the technological advances since they are unable to recreate the native anatomy of the joint. The inability to restore femoral offset and version or the presence of implant-related leg-length discrepancies often lead to suboptimal surgical results that increase the risk of dislocation, fractures, and component wear, compromising postoperative functional outcomes and implant longevity.» A customized THA system, whereby the femoral stem is designed to restore patient anatomy, has recently been introduced. The THA system uses computed tomography (CT)-derived 3D imaging to create a custom stem, patient-specific component placement, and patient-specific instrumentation that matches the patient’s native anatomy.» The purpose of this article is to provide information on the design and manufacturing process of this new THA implant, to illustrate the associated preoperative planning, and to describe the surgical technique; 3 surgical cases are presented.

Abstract
Purpose
This study aimed to determine the factors associated with Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) and its neurodevelopmental outcomes.
Methods
A case-control study of infants delivered at King Abdulaziz Medical City, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, was carried out from 2015 to 2019. Newborns with an admission diagnosis of HIE were identified, and controls were matched for the case. The electronic medical records were used to extract the clinical data for each case. The HIE cases were followed for 24 months to determine their neurodevelopmental outcomes.
Results
The sample included 60 infants diagnosed with HIE and 234 infants as controls, primarily males (56%) with mean gestational age of 38 weeks (SD 1.6). According to Sarnat staging, 36% of the HIE cases (22 patients) had stage 2 encephalopathy, while 35% of infants were at stage 3. Children with HIE were twice as likely to be born to mothers with maternal comorbidities, and more likely to have prepartum and intrapartum complications than the control group. The follow-up of neurodevelopmental outcomes at 24 months for the HIE infants indicated no delays in development of gross motor skills (76%), fine motor skills (78%), language skills (67%), and social skills (78%).
Conclusion
Maternal comorbidities and prepartum or intrapartum complications were more prevalent in the HIE group. HIE severity grade can be used as a prognostic, predictive tool for neurodevelopmental outcomes. Neurodevelopment follow up for at least 24 months is necessary to enhance care and rehabilitation of the patients.

Abstract
While the established route for vaccines against the pandemic severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is intramuscular, it may be preferable to deliver vaccines intranasally to secure mucosal protection at the site of infection. This will limit the spread of the virus, ease administration and likely improve vaccine acceptance. Here, we report on a subunit vaccine platform, where the antigen is genetically fused to engineered human albumin. Upon intranasal delivery the subunit vaccines target the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) and induce both local and systemic antigen-specific antibody responses at magnitudes higher than after intramuscular delivery. We provide evidence that such needle-free vaccination induces production of antibodies with neutralizing capacity against SARS-CoV-2 or influenza A. Thus, the vaccine platform is particularly well suited for design of subunit vaccines against these and other infectious respiratory diseases.

Abstract
Background
Oral health condition in adolescence impacts the oral well-being throughout life. This study aimed to determine the association between environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) exposure and oral health in adolescents, using nationally representative data.
Methods
Using data from the 2020 Korean Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey, we assessed self-reported data on ETS exposure and oral health symptoms in 37,591 non-smoking adolescents. The dependent variables were self-reported oral health symptoms of adolescents (tooth fracture, dental pain, and gum bleeding). ETS exposure was the primary independent variable. Chi-square tests and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed to examine these relationships.
Results
ETS exposure was positively associated with oral symptoms compared to no-ETS exposure in adolescents [boys, odds ratio (OR) 1.56, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.46–1.66; girls, OR 1.50, 95% CI 1.41–1.60]; individuals with good oral health habits such as frequent tooth brushing [boys, three times or more a day, OR 1.38, 95% CI 1.24–1.53] and less soda consumption [girls, less than once a day, OR 1.73, 95% CI 1.29–2.33] had a weaker association. ETS exposure was positively associated with dental pain [boys, OR 1.55, 95% CI 1.45–1.66; girls, OR 1.50, 95% CI 1.41–1.60] and gum bleeding [boys, OR 1.43, 95% CI 1.29–1.58; girls, OR 1.32, 95% CI 1.21–1.44]; however, tooth fracture was significantly associated only in girls [OR 1.28, 95% CI 1.13–1.45].
Conclusions
ETS in various environments is negatively associated with oral health in adolescents. This association could vary depending on health habits. Sophisticated policies to protect South Korean adolescents from ETS can be developed from these findings.

Abstract

This study aimed to verify the possibility of obtaining genetic gain by selecting breeders based on genetic parameter estimates for reproductive performance traits of female tilapia (Oreochromis sp.) from a commercial population. The study was conducted using a database containing information on reproductive traits collected from 2009 to 2021. During the breeding period, the animals were stocked in tanks in a 1:3 male: female ratio. Eggs were collected from the mouth of the females every five days, and the collected eggs were measured in 100 mL beakers to estimate the egg volume. To estimate the variance components and genetic parameters (heritability, correlation, and repeatability), a mixed animal model was used with the fixed effects of the production cycle and breeding tanks, in addition to the additive direct genetic and permanent environmental random effects. The heritability values were 0.26, 0.18, 0.15, and 0.13 for total egg volume, average egg volume, spawning frequency, and average spawning interval, respectively, with repeatability above 0.43 for all analyzed variables, demonstrating the ability of the evaluated breeds to maintain the same production level during the different cycles. The genetic correlations among the variables were high, with a correlation of -0.99 between the total egg volume and the average spawning interval. Thus, selecting for total egg volume, which had the highest heritability, would result in animals that produce a large volume of eggs and have short spawning intervals.
Municipal Water Use Kuznets Curve
Authors: Song Zikun , Jia Shaofeng 
Published: July 2022

Abstract
The relationship between per capita municipal water use (PCMWU) and per capita GDP (PCGDP) (purchasing power parity, constant 2011 US $) are statistically analyzed by country in the world. The results indicate that per capita municipal water use will increase with the rising per capita GDP at the beginning, which will then decrease at a certain threshold (i.e., when per capita GDP reaches a certain level). This trend follows the rules of Water Use Kuznets Curve, i.e., an inverted U-shape curve that describes the relationship between water use and GDP. The cross-sectional analysis of the world country-specific data revealed that, the threshold of PCGDP at the peak point of Kuznets Curve is around 45000 US$. In addition, based on the time-series analysis of developed countries, it is demonstrated that the average threshold of PCGDP at the peak point of Kuznets Curve is 34769 US$. The direct reason for the existence of Municipal Water Use Kuznets Curve is that there is a ceiling of municipal water demand, while the driving forces behind include technological advancements, growth in water prices, effective environmental regulations and policies, and water-saving consciousness. Although PCMWU in most countries of the world are still in an ascending trend, experiences from developed countries present a positive signal, and provide instruments for developing countries.

Abstract
Summary Low-temperature chilling injury in early spring or late spring severely restricts maize production. Therefore, improving its temperature tolerance is one of the important goals of maize breeding. The wild maize relatives such as Z. perennis and T. dactyloides have strong cold tolerance and thus can be used to improve the cold tolerance of cultivated maize. In the previous study, the allohexaploid MTP ( Zea . Z. perennis and T. dactyloides ) was created as a genetic bridge material and the introgressed cross of the backbone maize inbred line to obtain the MTP-maize introgression line with strong cold tolerance. In this study, F 2:3 populations was developed of the cold-tolerant maize introgression line IB030 and the cold-sensitive maize introgression line IB021. A high-density genetic linkage map was constructed using SSR genetic markers and performed QTL mapping for related traits at 2°C, RNA-seq was performed using cold-tolerant introgression line IB030 and recurrent parent B73 (cold-sensitive) after low temperature stress at seedling stage. The key genes controlling REC, SDW and SFW of maize introgression line seedlings were located by forward genetics combined with WGCNA analysis strategy. Key genes function verification results showed that, Zm00001d037590 REC and Zm00001d012321 REC have the highest expression levels in introgression line IB030, followed by the wild type B73, and finally the EMS mutant after low temperature stress, these results initially concluded that key genes positively regulate the cold tolerance of maize, and also laid a theoretical and practical foundation for improvement of cultivated maize against low-temperature stress.

Published: July 2022

Abstract
Background: Injuries have been recognized as the leading cause of death in children for nearly 40 years. However, most epidemiological studies of injuries have not been community-based and are limited either to a single type of injury, such as head injuries or burnsor to a specific cause of injury, such as consumer products.Objective: To determine patterns of injuries among children visiting Gondar town public health institutes, Northwest Ethiopia,2019.Methods: An institutional-based prospective cross-sectional study was conductedamong children visiting Gondar town public health institutes of Amhara region, Northwest Ethiopia from June 25 to September 25, 2019. A total of 385 participants were included in the study. Data were entered into Epi-info version 7.2.1 and exported to SPSS version 21.0 for analysis and descriptive statistics were presented in text, tables, charts, and graphs.Result: The majority of the pediatric trauma cases were seen in males 61.8%, (n = 238) and females comprised only 38.2% (n = 147). Stone or stick injury (29.1%) was the most common mode of trauma followed by road traffic injuries (21.0%), falls (19.0%), and burns (14.0%). The majority of injuries happened during playing (53%) and around the home (37.9%). In this study the three top most frequent sites of injuries were: lower extremity injury 167 (43.4%), upper extremity127 (33.0%), and head injury 50 (13.0%). Conclusion and recommendation: The high rate of pediatric trauma from sticks or stones, roadways, and falls highlights the need for increased supervision and identification of specific dangers when playing. In our scenario, a comprehensive trauma registry appears to be critical for developing policies to lessen the burden of pediatric trauma. Further research with large sample size and associated factors for pediatric injuries is recommended.

Abstract
Purpose: To investigate the association of High Molecular Weight Adiponectin (HMW), HMW/ Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) and HMW/Adiponectin (APN) ratio with hypertension in obese children and adolescents, we evaluated the concentrations of HMW and HMW/APN in the plasma of obese children and adolescents with hypertension. Methods: The 353 pediatric subjects were grouped according to weight and blood pressure. Anthropometric and biochemical parameters were evaluated. Plasma concentrations of APN and HMW were investigated by ELISA. ANOVA was used to compare study groups, and a binary logistic regression analysis was used to verify if HMW, HMW/HOMA-IR, HMW/APN, APN, APN/HOMA-IR, HOMA-IR are predictors of the development of hypertension in children and adolescents. To compare the strength and performance of each biomarker to classify individuals with and without hypertension, the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, area under the curve (AUC) and Youden index (J) were evaluated. Results: Lower HMW and HMW/HOMA-IR levels were associated with hypertension in obese children and adolescents (P<0.05). Hypertension was associated with lowest HMW, HMW/HOMA-IR, APN and APN/HOMA-IR levels, regardless of variables used to adjust the model (P<0.05). However, HOMA-IR or the HMW/APN were not significant (P>0.05). In the ROC curve analyses, the HMW and HMW/HOM-IR was more sensitive in predicting hypertension in children and adolescents with obese. Conclusion: Low levels of HMW oligomer and HMW/HOM-IR are associated with hypertension in childhood obesity. Thus, theses biomarkers that could be clinically useful in prognosing hypertension in childhood obesity.
