Abstract

Introduction: In the last 40 years, Acinetobacter baumannii has been among the bacteria known to acquire multiple mechanisms of antibiotic resistance and, as a result, it is now one of the pathogens involved in healthcare-associated infections with multidrug resistant strains. Our study aimed to assess the production of carbapenemases in carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii by means of phenotypic methods and polymerase chain reaction technique (PCR), as well as to appraise the performances of carbapenemase detection by phenotypic tests compared to the PCR approach.

Materials and Methods: We used phenotypic methods (E-test MBL, CIM, MHT, Rosco® Kit/OXA/MBL, OXA-23 K-SeT® assay) to investigate the production of carbapenemases in 43 carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii isolates, and PCR to screen for the genes blaOXA-23, blaOXA-24, blaOXA-58, blaOXA-51, blaVIM, blaIMP and blaNDM.

Results: The carbapenem inactivation method (CIM) at 2 hours, CIM at 4h, OXA-23 K-SeT® assay, Rosco® Kit/OXA, and modified Hodge test (MHT) identified 26%, 63%, 65%, 81%, and 42% carbapenemase-producing isolates, respectively. The phenotypic E-test MBL detected metallo-β-lactamase (MBL) production in 79% of strains. PCR revealed blaOXA-51 in all the isolates, blaOXA-23 in 35/43 (81%), blaOXA-24 in 28/43 (65%), blaVIM in 7/43 (3%) and blaOXA-58, blaIMP, blaNDM were not detected.

Conclusion: Because phenotypic tests do not highlight all the carbapenemase-producing strains, their results must be interpreted with caution relative to their level of performance, and negative results should be confirmed by means of PCR.
Autoantibodies Against ROS-Human Serum Albumin-A Potent Immunological marker in Depressed Individuals with Smoking History
Authors: Sherwani Subuhi , Khan Mohd W. A. 
Published: October 2022

Abstract

Background: Depression is one of the significant problems in adults that accounts for up to five percent of cases worldwide.

Methods: Volunteers were divided into eight groups, and their serum samples were tested for FBG, carbonyl contents, IFN-γ and TNF-α. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) modified human serum albumin (HSA) (ROSHSA) was used as an antigen and levels of serum autoantibodies were estimated by direct binding and inhibition ELISA in all subjects.

Results: Significant biophysical structural modifications were observed in ROS-HSA with increased carbonyl contents compared to native-HSA (N-HSA). Significantly high levels of carbonyl content (2.68 ± 0.33 nmol/mg protein; p > 0.001) and pro-inflammatory cytokines IFN-γ (7.4 ± 0.61 pg/ml; p > 0.001) and TNF-α (1.47 ± 0.23 pg/ml; p > 0.001) were detected in serum samples from F-D-S. Similarly, a high level of autoantibodies against ROS-HSA was observed in females who were depressed and smokers (F-D-S) group (0.89 ± 0.07; p > 0.001) compared to males who were both depressed and smokers (M-D-S) (0.66 ± 0.049). Furthermore, inhibition ELISA results exhibited high recognition of serum autoantibodies from F-D-S subjects (78.6 ± 5.7 mean maximum percentage inhibition MMPI) compared to M-D-S (58.8 ± 5.2 MMPI) subjects.

Conclusion: Incoherence, long term unchecked chronic psychological stress may cause oxidation of blood proteins, which subsequently result in structural alterations of biomolecules, thus generating new-epitopes, capable of inducing autoantibodies specific for ROS-modified proteins. These autoantibodies may be a potential marker for subjects suffering from depression to understand the state of immune imbalance.
I Am the Night, Color Me Black
Authors: Matthews Fallen 
Published: October 2022

For me - an Afro-L’nu interdisciplinary doctorate candidate rooted in cinema and media studies - vampirism resembles cinematic realism: a visuality of authenticity effected in scene, setting, and storyline on-location respective to narrative milieux. However, what often defines reality as opposed to preferred realism is that Black positionalities continue to be afflicted by disparity, exploitation, exclusion, and inaccessibility alongside systematic anti-Blackness which extenuate our adversities. This contrasts with the avid albeit ambiguous initiative of equity, diversity, inclusion, and accessibility (EDIA) sweeping through academic spaces in the wake of reconciliation campaigns. Moreover, this initiative is vampiric in its avid solicitation of efforts and insights from the very marginalized positionalities it purports to uplift.
Too little, if anything.
Too late, if ever.

The wealth of lip service paid in comparison to what pittances we marginalized peoples are afforded. I find myself immortalized by pearls of wisdom which speak to ancestral strength and blood memory, akin to how kernels from an artifact transform Dr. Hess Green and Ganja Meda into the vampiric undead. This personal essay offers a discourse analysis of Ganja & Hess (1973) that incorporates my own positionality and academic exegesis, notably revelations as to what vampiric contingency underlays my transformation, survival, and eventual demise.

Published: October 2022

Die in den Unternehmen vorkommenden Anwendungsfälle von Datenauswertungen weisen eine große Vielfalt auf. Als Konsequenz wachsen kontinuierlich die Anzahl und die Funktionsvariabilität von Softwaresystemen, die diese Aufgaben unterstützen. Der gemeinsame Einsatz dieser Softwareteile führt zu komplexen und verschiedenartigen Architekturen, deren Realisierung einen immensen Aufwand erfordert. Außer klassischen Data-Warehouse-Systemen (DWH) finden sich seit einiger Zeit auch Big-Data-Anwendungen in der analysebezogenen IT-Landschaft von Unternehmen. Die Vielfalt und Komplexität dieser Architekturen behindert, verlangsamt und verteuert die Erprobung neuer und innovativer Zusammensetzungen aus analystischen Systemen im Rahmen von Proof-of-Concept-Studien.
Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit ist es trotz des breiten Spektrums an Architekturvarianten analytischer Systeme gelungen, mit Hilfe des Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC)-Ansatzes ein gesamtheitliches Â Konzept für die Aufbauautomatisierung in mehreren Cloud-Umgebungen zu entwicklen und seine Realisierbarkeit anhand eines Prototyps nachzuweisen. Sowohl die klassischen DWH als auch die unterschiedlichen Arten von Big-Data-Anwendungen lassen sich zu einer sie umfassenden mehrschichtigen Referenzarchitektur vereinen. Die Hauptbestandteile dieser Architektur sind ein Data Lake für die Rohdaten, SQL- und NoSQL-DBMS, ETL-Werkzeuge, Big-Data-Processing-Engines sowie Datenanalyse- und Visualisierungswerkzeuge.

Лінгвостилістичний аналіз театральних термінів у романі Н. Гуменюк “Вересові меди”
Authors: Локайчук Світлана 
Published: October 2022

У статті розглянуто функціонування театральної термінної лексики в романі Н. Гуменюк «Вересові меди», встановлено, що використання номінацій спеціальних понять в художньому мовленні зумовлює їх детермінологізацію, терміни в художньому тексті – якісно інші лексеми, порівняно з науковим текстом. Разом з тим вони сприймаються дещо інакше, ніж інші слова художнього твору, оскільки зберігають «відбиток» наукового стилю. Лінгвостилістичний аналіз тексту роману показує, що використання театральних термінів зумовлене творчим задумом та, відповідно, ідейно-тематичним змістом твору.
Визначено, що основна функція терміноодиниць в романі ідентифікаційна – театральна лексика викликає передусім асоціацію з тією сферою культурного життя, з якої вона залучена. Терміни в тексті виконують також сигнальну функцію – вони пов’язані із сюжетною лінією про взаємини і професійну діяльність акторів. Театральні терміни входять до структури художніх образів і слугують для характеристики персонажів, їхніх занять, професії, уподобань.
У складі термінної лексики роману зафіксовано назви видів драматичних творів та форм їхнього сценічного втілення; назви діячів та творчих працівників театру. Окрему групу утворюють лексеми, пов’язані з глядацькою авдиторією.
Інколи театральні терміни входять до складу яскравих індивідуально-авторських метафор та порівнянь, проте асоціації, на основі яких виникають метафоричні образи, пов’язані зі значенням терміна.

Published: October 2022

In cats, upper respiratory tract infection (URI) can be associated with primary or secondary bacterial infection and is generally treated with antimicrobials. Antimicrobial use can be inappropriate, and overuse. There are no detailed protocols for treatment, such as those available for human treatment. This study aimed to determine the antimicrobial sensitivity of the most isolated bacteria in cats that infected with the URI. Isolation and identification of bacteria in samples of cats infected with the URI were then continued with the antibiotic sensitivity test for amoxicillin, doxycycline, tetracycline, azithromycin, ciprofloxacin, and cefotaxime using the Kirby Bauer Agar Disc diffusion method. Based on the research results, the bacteria identified were Enterobacter spp, Streptococcus spp, Staphylococcus spp, Pseudomonas spp, Serratia spp, Yersinia spp, Micrococcus spp, Klebsiella spp and Hafnia spp. Amoxicillin antibiotic resistance was found in four isolates of Staphylococcus spp and two isolates resistant to cefotaxime. Amoxicillin and tetracycline antibiotic resistance were found in one isolate of Streptococcus spp, two isolates resistant to cefotaxime and two intermediate isolates to doxycycline. One isolate of Enterobacter spp was resistant to amoxicillin, azithromycin and two isolates were resistant to cefotaxime. All tested isolates were sensitive to ciprofloxacin. Based on the antibiotic sensitivity test, most isolates were sensitive, but there were isolates resistant to antibiotics, especially amoxicillin and cefotaxime.

Published: October 2022

The current study was designed to identify the histological composition of the ileum in the Caucasian squirrel Sciurus anomalus. Ten adult squirrels were used for the present study. Animals were anesthetized, anatomized, fixed the study specimens in 10% formalin solution, and conducted a series of histological staining techniques. The ileum consists of four main tunicae represented by mucosa, submucosa, muscularis, and serosa. The tunica mucosa consists of three secondary layers: the epithelial lining layer, lamina propria, and muscularis mucosa. The epithelial lining comprises simple columnar epithelial tissue composed of columnar cells and goblet cells. The lamina propria contains simple straight tubular glands called the intestinal glands or the crypt of Lieberkuhn. The muscularis mucosa is composed of a very thin, single layer of smooth muscle fibers arranged circularly. The submucosa consists of dense connective tissue, while the tunica muscularis appears composed of two layers of smooth muscle fibers. The tunica serosa consists of a loose connective tissue that is covered by a mesothelium.

Theoretical Calculation of Photon Emission from Quark-Antiquark Annihilation Using QCD Theory
Authors: Mohammed Ahmed Elaf , M. Al-Agealy Hadi J. , Farhan Kadhim Nada 
Published: October 2022

In this work, we calculate and analyze the photon emission from quark and anti-quark interaction during annihilation process using simple model depending on phenomenology of quantum chromodynamic theory (QCD). The parameters, which include the running strength coupling, temperature of the system and the critical temperature, carry information regarding photon emission and have a significant impact on the photons yield. The emission of photon from strange interaction with anti-strange is large sensitive to decreases or increases there running strength coupling. The photons emission increases with decreases running strength coupling and vice versa. We introduce the influence of critical temperature on the photon emission rate in order to facilitate its further applied in photon emission spectrum. Photon emission was increased with large critical temperature MeV comparing with photons emission at critical temperature MeV. We analyze and discuss the sensitive of the emission of photon to photons energy . It increases with decreased photons energy and vice versa. However, the photons emission increases with increases thermal energy of system T = 170 MeV to 270 Mev. It is implied that strength coupling, critical temperature and photons energy can be as important as thermal energy of system for emission of photon.
