Published: November 2022

Objetivos: Describir las características y evolución de los sujetos con diagnóstico de síndrome de distrés respiratorio agudo (SDRA) al ingreso en la unidad de cuidados intensivos (UCI) y requerimiento de asistencia ventilatoria mecánica (AVM) según el punto de corte de ratio ventilatorio (VR) alto (≥ 2) o VR bajo (< 2).
Materiales y método: Estudio observacional descriptivo, retrospectivo. Sujetos mayores de 18 años con requerimiento de AVM y diagnóstico de SDRA al ingreso a UCI. Los datos fueron recolectados de nuestra base de datos entre julio de 2020 y mayo de 2021.
Resultados: Se incluyeron 50 sujetos, de los cuales 19 tuvieron un VR alto. La mediana de edad fue de 57 años (rango intercuartílico 47,8 - 64); 62% eran masculinos. Se encontraron diferencias significativas entre los grupos en el índice de comorbilidad de Charlson (ICC; p= 0,04) y en la presión arterial de dióxido de carbono (PaCO2; p= 0,002). De la población total, fueron extubados 18 sujetos (36%), seis fallaron la extubación (12%), 10 requirieron traqueostomía (20%) y 31 sujetos fallecieron (62%). Se observaron diferencias significativas en la cantidad de extubaciones (p= 0,03) y en la mortalidad (p= 0,02) entre ambos grupos.
Conclusión: Pudimos observar que, en nuestra población, la evolución de los sujetos fue diferente según tuvieran un valor de VR alto o bajo medido en las primeras 24 horas de ingreso a UCI. El grupo con VR alto tuvo menor cantidad de sujetos extubados y mayor mortalidad.

Barter trade in GreenlandThis essay addresses the principles of Odin Teatret’s ‘barter trade’ used for a project in Greenland from 2021 to 2024. It is an artistic device which Odin Teatret has used since 1974. Barter trade breaks down traditional conventions of theatre usually taking place outside theater institutions and doesn’t make use of narrative dramaturgy. During the barter trade the performers “exchanges” their own material with the audience and facilitate a process of response between players and audience when performing songs, dances and/or scenes. The method can be described in terms of what the French philosopher Jacques Rancière calls The Ignorant Teacher (2007).

Availability and completeness of funder metadata in Crossref
Authors: De Jonge Hans , Kramer Bianca 
Published: November 2022

Research funders spend considerable efforts on collecting information about the outcomes of the research they fund. Publications are amongst important data they collect because these represent direct results of research funding. To help funders track publication output associated with their funding, Crossref initiated the Fundref project in 2013, enabling publishers to deposit funding information using persistent identifiers. Currently, 25% of articles published in 2021 have funder metadata. However, it is hard to assess that figure because it is not known how many articles are the result of funded research and therefore should include funder metadata.
In this poster we present the outcomes of a study in which we try to assess the availability and completeness of funding information in Crossref. For this analysis we made use of a subset of publications of which we are certain that they are the result of funding provided by a specific funding agency (the Dutch Research Council NWO) and therefore – in theory – should contain funding information. We also compared our findings with the availability of funding information in the larger (commercial) databases. Only 67% of the 5004 articles in our dataset contain funding information in Crossref, with a subset acknowledging NWO as funder name and/or Funder IDs linked to NWO (53% and 45%, respectively). Web of Science (WoS), Scopus and Dimensions are all able to infer additional funding information from funding statements in the full text of the articles. Funding information in Lens largely corresponds to that in Crossref, with some additional funding information likely taken from PubMed.
We observe interesting differences between publishers in the coverage and completeness of funding metadata in Crossref compared to proprietary databases, highlighting the need for publishers to step up their efforts to collect this data and submit to Crossref.
The open unrestricted availability of structured, machine readable information about the funding of research is important for multiple reasons. Important progress has been made in recent years to promote the open availability of metadata of the scholarly record. Our research shows that the open availability of funding information, while increasing, also needs improvement.

Aims: Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) is a new human disease caused by the Coronavirus SARS-COV-2. It was classified as a pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO) on March 11, 2020. The Institute Pasteur of Côte d'Ivoire (IPCI), through its specialized units and its Center National of Reference (CNR) for respiratory viruses, has been entrusted with the mission of coordinating the diagnostic and conservation efforts of COVID-19 for the country.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the costs of cryogenic conservation of biocollections during the COVID pandemic at the Côte d'Ivoire Biological Resource Center (CeReB) from 2020-2021.
Methodology: Cost and sample data were collected using a questionnaire administered to the IPCI administration, the Supply Management Unit (UGA) and CeReB staff that ensured data quality.
Results: For our study period, of the 1,225,710 SARS COV 2 samples collected by National Surveillance 92.7% (1,137,210/1,225,710) were received in IPCI laboratories for diagnosis.
Variable costs are higher than fixed costs in both cryovial and chaff collection production. The total production cost of the straw collection is 3.5 times the total production cost of the cryovial collection
Conclusion: This study establishes a generic analysis of the capital and operating costs required to integrate nasopharyngeal specimen cryopreservation and can serve as a model for the implementation of cryopreservation programs.

Authors: Ancheta Johnryll C. , Napil Melissa C. 
Published: November 2022

Aims: To determine the best fit model for the academic performance of students using reading motivation, language learning self-efficacy, and test-taking strategy as exogenous variables, and academic performance as the endogenous variable.
Study Design: This research used Structural Equation Modeling (SEM).
Place and Duration of Study: The study was conducted at public high schools of SOCCSKSARGEN or Region 12 in the Philippines during the school year 2021-2022.
Methodology: The respondents of the study were 400 public high school students. The respondents were chosen using stratified random sampling. A four-part questionnaire was utilized to collect the data. All items in each indicator of the four variables revealed a good interpretation which means they were valid and reliable.
Results: Reading tough books to achieve excellent marks, perform well in class, and gain attention from teachers and parents is less likely to drive students. Students used to evaluate their language learning requirements, define the abilities they wished to develop, pick effective study techniques, and set aside gadgets when studying. They also used to read the question before looking for hints in the relevant content, extract the essential lines that convey the major ideas, concentrate on titles, names, numbers, quotations, or instances, and comprehend the overall context to infer an option. The survey discovered that most of the time, students utilized it to determine the progress of their learning and create learning objectives. It was also found that there was a link between the exogenous variables and the academic performance of students.
Conclusion: Students observed variables on reading motivation and academic performance. There was a positive and significant relationship between reading motivation, language learning self-efficacy, and test-taking strategy. Thus, this study supported Reynolds and Walberg's theory of academic achievement.

Field experiment was carried out on silt clay loam soils at Regional Agricultural Research station, Chintapalle, Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh during 2018-2020 to study the yield of response of rainfed groundnut with different levels of Nano particulate zinc oxide application along with NPK Fertilizers. The experiment consisting of eight treatments, three replications with RDF design. Results of nano particulate zinc oxide on pod yield showed that (24.36 Q/ha) in the RDF+ nano scale zinc oxide level @ 200 ppm at 25 and 45 DAS was increased over to that of normal recommended dose of N,P,K fertilizers (100% RDF) which recorded pod yield of 17.14 Q/ha only. Application of ZnSO4 through soil along with RDF showed good results (17.24 Q/ha) than RDF + Foliar application of ZnSO4 @ 2g/lit at 25 and 45 DAS (20.66 Q/ha). Application of micronutrient (ZnO) had helped in further increase in grain yields at both levels of ZnO (150% and 200% ZnO at 25 and 45 DAS). Among different treatments, significantly higher yield (24.36 Q/ha) was recorded with application of RDF + Foliar application of ZnO @ 200 ppm at 25 and 45 DAS than the only with RDF (17.4 Q/ha). With respect to method of application of ZnSO4 through soil and foliar application ZnSo4 @ 2g/lit at 25 and 45 DAS was found to be higher both levels of RDF (Pod yield of 14.6 Q/ha at RDF + Soil application of ZnSO4 @ 50 kg ha-1 and 17.24 Q/ha at RDF+ foliar application of ZnSO4@ 2g/lit at 25 and 45 DAS). With respect to other plant characteristics, comparatively more plant height (43.53 cm) at RDF + foliar application of ZnO @ 200 ppm at 25 and 45 DAS. Regarding yield attributes significantly higher test weight (30.9 g) were recorded at RDF + 200 ppm ZnO at 25 and 45 DAS. Post –harvest soil sample analysis showed highest availability of nutrients in respect of soil, the results revealed that there was no significance difference among the treatments regarding Avail. N, Available K and pH. The lowest Phosphorus (17.20 kg ha-1) was recorded with RDF+ Foliar application of nanoscale ZnO 200 ppm at 25 & 45 DAS and highest (24.46 kg ha-1) was recorded in T9 (RDF+ Foliar application of nanoscale ZnO 100 ppm at 25 & 45 DAS).
An investigation was initiated at Department of Soil science, Regional Agricultural Research Station, Chintapalle to examine the effects of nano zinc oxide on Groundnut (Arachis hypogea L.) growth, yield and Zn content in Leaves, stem and roots. A field experiment consisted of nine treatments comprised of T1: control, T2: RDF, T3: RDF+ Soil application ZnSO4@ 50 Kg/ha, T4: RDF+ Foliar application ZnSO4 2 g/L at 25 & 45DAS, T5: RDF+ Foliar application of nanoscale ZnO 150 ppm at 25 & 45 DAS, T6: RDF+ Foliar application of nanoscale ZnO 200 ppm at 25 & 45 DAS, T7: RDF+ Foliar application of nanoscale ZnO 400 ppm at 25 & 45 DAS, T8: RDF+ Foliar application of nanoscale ZnO 50 ppm at 25 & 45 DAS, T9: RDF+ Foliar application of nanoscale ZnO 100 ppm at 25 & 45 DAS.

Published: November 2022

In the current era of modern medicine, neglected tropical disorders though rare, still remain a cause of significant morbidity in the sufferers. Actinomycetoma is one such disease commonly seen in the rural population of the tropical countries. Due to the presence of other infectious diseases with similar presentation and low yield on cultures, there may be a delay in correct diagnosis and treatment in resource poor settings. We present a 35 year old male patient who came with complaints of raised lesions over his neck. He had been treated with antitubercular drugs for the same, despite which the lesions had persisted. Based on clues from histopathological and clinical features, we diagnosed him with Actinomycetoma. He was started on the welsh regimen and he showed excellent response. This case becomes a rare vignette due to the uncommon site of presentation of mycetoma.
Conclusion: Neglected tropical diseases are not to be neglected. Relevant investigations have to be done to rule out their possibility, especially in tropical countries where they are still a burden.
Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors in the treatment of heart failure in general practice in north Cumbria
Authors: Toal Martin , Walker Robert 
Published: July 2002

AbstractBackground:A great deal of research has demonstrated the benefits of treating patients with chronic heart failure with Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) inhibitors. There is rather less research on the actual uptake of treatment in general practice, and in particular methods that might improve that uptake.Aim:To study the attitudes and practice of medical practitioners in North Cumbria in the treatment of heart failure.Method:Semi‐structured interviews with 16 general practitioners and nine hospital physicians in the Carlisle area and an audit of general practice case notes.Results:Two hundred and fifty‐eight patients were identified with heart failure. Prevalence was 1.1%. Fifty percent were on an ACE inhibitor, the mean dose of which was less than half the typical research dose. Patients who had an echocardiogram were much more likely to be on an ACE inhibitor. General practitioners were enthusiastic to use ACE inhibitors, but felt that greater access to echocardiography was required. Hospital physicians were happy to improve access within an agreed protocol.Conclusion:Improved uptake of ACE inhibitors could be assisted by the development of a protocol for investigation and treatment. This protocol should be evidence‐based and agreed between local GPs, hospital physicians and the Health Authority.
No Expression of Angiotensin II Receptors and Angiotensin‐Converting Enzyme in Myxomatous Canine Mitral Valve Leaflets. An Autoradiographic Study
Authors: Mow T. , Pedersen H. D. 
Published: July 2002

The renin‐angiotensin system, including angiotensin (Ang) II and angiotensin‐converting enzyme (ACE), plays an important role in cardiac fibrous tissue formation. Since changes in valvular collagen are a central part of myxomatous mitral valve disease in the dog, we speculated that Ang II and ACE might play a role in the pathogenesis of this disease.In 10 mitral valves, five with and five without clear myxomatous changes, the presence and distribution of Ang II receptors and ACE was examined autoradiographically, using 125I‐Ang II and 125I‐lisinopril, respectively. At postmortem examination, diseased valves were taken from old dogs, control valves from young adult dogs.No significant level of Ang II and lisinopril binding was found in normal as well as diseased valve leaflets. Equally low, insignificant levels of 125I‐Ang II binding were found in the myocardium of dogs with and without valvular disease. No significant level of myocardial 125I‐lisinopril binding was found.The lack of autoradiographic evidence of Ang II receptors and ACE in normal and diseased canine mitral valve leaflets suggests that the renin‐angiotensin system does not play a major role in the pathogenesis of the valvular changes.
Colour but not form patterns combine between the eyes
Authors: Wong Elaine M , Freeman Alan W 
Published: July 2002

Purpose: A visual pattern was broken into patches, some of which were shown to one eye and the remainder of which were shown to the other eye. Our aim was to find the conditions under which the subject could combine the information given to the two eyes separately to reconstruct the original pattern. Methods: One green and four red patches were presented to one eye. Five patches were presented to the other eye at corresponding locations but with red substituted for green and green for red. Results: When the chromatic contrasts were appropriately adjusted, subjects saw five patches of a single colour for most of the viewing time. Intermixed horizontal and vertical gratings did not separate into coherent percepts in the same way. Conclusions: This result indicates cooperation between the responses to colour patches presented to different eyes, a finding that may be of use in testing for normal binocular vision.
