description: To describe the histological and biomechanical changes of the preserved degenerative dermis in rat autologous skin transplant models after a deep second-degree burn. 50 SD rats were divided into 5 groups randomly of 10 rats of each: 7-days group, 9-days group, 14-days group, 21-days group, and 60-days group. Deep second-degree burn wounds were prepared on the back of rats sized 3.5cm×3.5cm. Super tangential excision was performed on the burn wound to preserve the degenerative dermis. Then, autologous epidermis was grafted on the wound. After that, the histological changes of the preserved degenerative dermis tissues and the graft areas were observed by macroscopic, light microscope and electron microscope in the 7, 9, 14, 21, 60 days after the operation. Moreover, the tensile properties of healing deeply burned rat skin were also tested for each group at the same time points mentioned above. Results: (1) According to the macroscopic observation, 7 days after the operation, the grafted skin was fused with the area of burn wound; A few hairs were growing out on the skin at the 14th day; the injured skin recovered to normality by the 60th day. (2) Hyaline change occurred in the preserved degenerative dermis tissues based on the observation by light microscope. At the 7th day after operation, the dermis papillae and reticular layer could be discerned; by the 21st day, the thickness, structures and morphology of grafted skin were similar to the normal tissues. (3) 7 days after operation, ballooning changes were observed by the electron microscope in the mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum of damaged cells and the number of the ribosomes was obviously reduced. The subcellular wound improved continuously and approached normality by the 21st day. (4) 9 days after the operation, the tensible strength and maximal strain of the grafting rat skin approached 70% and 90% of natural skin, respectively. (5) 60 days after the operation, the tensile performance of the healing rat skin recovered to the natural level. Conclusion: The histological and biomechanical changes of the denatured dermis of a deep second degree burn wound may gradually recover to normality after being covered by autologous skin.

description: Since its first formulation in 1983, Milgromian dynamics (MOND) has been very successful in predicting the gravitational potential of galaxies from the distribution of baryons alone, including general scaling relations and detailed rotation curves of large statistical samples of individual galaxies covering a large range of masses and sizes. Most predictions however rely on static models, and only a handful of N-body codes have been developed over the years to investigate the consequences of the Milgromian framework for the dynamics of complex evolving dynamical systems. In this work, we present a new Milgromian N-body code, which is a customized version of the RAMSES code (Teyssier 2002) and thus comes with all its features: it includes particles and gas dynamics, and importantly allows for high spatial resolution of complex systems due to the adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) technique. It further allows the direct comparison between Milgromian simulations and standard Newtonian simulations with dark matter particles. We provide basic tests of this customized code and demonstrate its performance by presenting N-body computations of dark-matter-free spherical equilibrium models as well as dark-matter-free disk galaxies in Milgromian dynamics.

description: The purpose of the study was to measure the extent of fungal contamination in laboratory animal cage beddings over time. The material was analysed for the content of fungal enzyme N-acetylhexosaminidase and the fungal cell wall agent 1,3-ß-glucan at 0-7 days after use. In some cages the values were increased above baseline already at 3 days and at 7 days practically all beddings showed a fungal contamination. It is suggested that the fungal enzyme test can be used for bedding quality control purposes and to monitor fungal contamination in animal cages to prevent pulmonary and other pathologies.

description: We present an analytic nonperturbative solution of the Yakubovsky equation for tetraquark states in the case of equal separations and energies, and demonstrate a direct connection between the tetraquark confinement potential and the temporal gluon propagator. To this end we employ a leading-order heavy quark mass expansion of the Coulomb gauge QCD action, and use the dressed two-point functions of the Yang-Mills sector only. As a result we find a bound state energy that rises linear with distance and a string tension twice as large as in a $q\bar{q}$-system.

description: Commonly used therapies for thrombophlebitis have a high failure rate. There are scant data on the application of topical corticosteroids to treat thrombophlebitis. The present study investigated if the potent topical corticosteroid clobetasol 17-propionate cream (Dermovate, Glaxo Wellcome) can be an effective treatment for drug-induced thrombophlebitis. DP-b99, a neuroprotective agent currently undergoing development for acute stroke, can cause injectionsite phlebitis. DP-b99 was administered at doses of 1 and 2 mg/kg by a 1 hour intravenous infusion into the lateral ear vein of groups of 6 and 5 rabbits, respectively. Each rabbit served as its own control by injecting both ears with DP-b99, while treating only one ear with clobetasol cream immediately after treatment, with subsequent applications twice daily for 3 days. Phlebitis was evaluated 1, 3, 5, 24, 32, 48, 56 and 72 hours after DP-b99 treatment using a clinical score ranging from 0 (no reaction) to 4. After 3 days the rabbits were sacrificed for histological analysis of the ears. The phlebitis score was highest at 24 hours. Clobetasol treatment reduced the clinical scores at all time points and shortened the course of phlebitis. Maximal effect was observed 24-48 hours after the first application of clobetasol cream. Histologically, there were fewer cases of thrombophlebitis in the clobetasoltreated ears, and those seen were milder and more focal. To the best of the authors’ knowledge this appears to be the only study to report a phlebitis-ameliorating effect of a topical corticosteroid.

A Comparative Study of the Effect of Mergers and Acquisitions on the Financial Performance in Commercial Banks in Nepal
Creators: name: Adhikari, Dr
Publisher: name: University of Southern Queensland
Year: 2021
Subjects: Mergers and Acquisitions, Financial Performance, Ratio’s Analysis, Commercial Banks, Nepal

description: This paper investigates the consolidation and restructuring in the banking and financial institutions (BFIs) in Nepal, predominately through the Mergers and Acquisitions (M&As) process. Despite making significant contributions to the economy, financial institutions in Nepal are often guilty of malpractice, lack corporate governance practices, and condone unhealthy competition in loan disbursement and deposit collection processes. These problems create a liquidity crunch, higher sensitivity in interest rates, increments in non-performing loans (NPL), and a lack of capacity to finance large scale projects. Due to poor professional practices, high numbers of BFIs threaten the financial stability in the country. The underlying research philosophy guiding this research is a positivist paradigm which will entail reviewing existing theory from literature, identifying variables, testing hypotheses, and producing empirical results. This research studied the effect of M&As on the financial performance of commercial banks and individual banks in Nepal. Therefore, this research evaluates the financial performance of the selected banks based on the financial ratios (profitability, liquidity, leverage, and wealth of shareholders ratios) from the perspective of pre-merger and post-merger periods covering 2013-2020. To compare the pre-post M&As performance of Nepalese commercial banks during this period of 2013-2020, statistical methods were used including a paired sample t-test to measure the significant differences. This research found that the commercial banks (financial performance) significantly improved the liquidity and leverage ratios in the post-merger period. However, profitability and wealth of shareholders ratios show either mixed or insignificant results after the M&As. On the other hand, in the case of individual banks, M&A results in a mixed improvement in the financial ratios of BOKL, GBIME, NMB, KBL bank and insignificant differences in the financial ratios of PRVU, NCCB, and NIB bank. It is concluded that the effect of M&A on the financial performances of individual banks is different to commercial banks.

description: Mn-doped GaAs nanowires were grown in the self-catalytic growth mode on oxidized Si(100) surface by molecular beam epitaxy and characterized by scanning and transmission electron microscopy, Raman scattering, photoluminescence, cathodoluminescence, and electron transport measurements. The transmission electron microscopy studies evidenced the substantial accumulation of Mn inside the catalyzing Ga droplets at the top of the nanowires. Optical and transport measurements revealed that the limit of Mn content for self-catalysed growth of GaAs nanowires corresponds to the doping level, i.e., is much lower than the Mn/Ga flux ratio (about 3%) used during the MBE growth. The resistivity measurements of individual nanowires confirmed that they are conductive, in accordance with the photoluminescence measurements which showed the presence of Mn2+ acceptors located at Ga sites of the GaAs host lattice of the nanowires. An anomalous temperature dependence of the photoluminescence related to excitons was demonstrated for Mn-doped GaAs nanowires.

Publisher: name: Scandinavian Journal of Laboratory Animal Sciences
Year: 2014

description: Clinical, histological and biochemical examination of spontaneous lens opacity was carried out in Mastomys coucha species. The incidence of the spontaneous lens opacity was noticed in adult animals, in the age range of 48-72 weeks, up to a maximum prevalence of 2.6% and 13.71% in male and female animals respectively. The affected animals exhibited mild lens opacity initially, which progressed with age, and later on became dense and looked like a mature cataract. The opacity was irreversible and showed no signs of disappearing in the affected animals. Both male and female were affected but, as noted above, the incidence of the abnormality was higher in the females. The mode of inheritance was not investigated. The ophthalmoscopic examination of the affected animals revealed total lenticular opacity characterized by a shallow anterior chamber and bulging of the lens towards the anterior side due to the swelling of the lens. The serum glucose values in affected animals were within the normal range. The histological examination of opaque lenses revealed total alteration in the micro architecture of the lens cells. The SDS-PAGE analysis of lens crystallins, revealed distribution of major lens crystallins within range of 20-30 kDa molecular weights. The immunoblotting of SDS-PAGE separated proteins with anti-crystallin , ß and  antibodies indicated expression of major lens crystallins in affected animals. We have concluded that this is a case of spontaneous senile cataract, reported for the first time in Mastomys species.

description: Phonon densities of states (DOS) of bcc $α$-$^{57}$Fe were measured from room temperature through the 1044K Curie transition and the 1185K fcc $γ$-Fe phase transition using nuclear resonant inelastic x-ray scattering. At higher temperatures all phonons shift to lower energies (soften) with thermal expansion, but the low transverse modes soften especially rapidly above 700K, showing strongly nonharmonic behavior that persists through the magnetic transition. Interatomic force constants for the bcc phase were obtained by iteratively fitting a Born-von Kármán model to the experimental phonon spectra using a genetic algorithm optimization. The second-nearest-neighbor fitted axial force constants weakened significantly at elevated temperatures. An unusually large nonharmonic behavior is reported, which increases the vibrational entropy and accounts for a contribution of 35 meV/atom in the free energy at high temperatures. The nonharmonic contribution to the vibrational entropy follows the thermal trend of the magnetic entropy, and may be coupled to magnetic excitations. A small change in vibrational entropy across the $α$-$γ$ structural phase transformation is also reported.

description: We report a novel mechanism for the formation of chimera states, a peculiar spatiotemporal pattern with coexisting synchronized and incoherent domains found in ensembles of identical oscillators. Considering Stuart-Landau oscillators we demonstrate that a nonlinear global coupling can induce this symmetry breaking. We find chimera states also in a spatially extended system, a modified complex Ginzburg-Landau equation. This theoretical prediction is validated with an oscillatory electrochemical system, the electrooxidation of silicon, where the spontaneous formation of chimeras is observed without any external feedback control.

description: Blood collection or intravenous injection of substances in rats and mice are necessary for a wide variety of scientific studies. To date, several methods have been developed to access different vessels, according to the different research purpose. However, animal behavioural responses like stress, pain or traumatic injury during some procedures may influence subsequent results. In this technical report we demonstrate the advantages of using the labialis mandibularis vein route that, in addition, seems to prevent unnecessary animal suffering.

description: The MDB EWKR Fish Theme focussed on fish recruitment and sought to improve our understanding of the key drivers, functional processes and limitations of successful recruitment of native fish. This would lead to an improved capacity to predict fish recruitment outcomes in response to different environmental water parameters. In summary, our research demonstrates that both fish population processes, and the key drivers that support recruitment operate at multiple spatial scales, from the patch to the basin scale. Food production areas coupled with appropriate temperature regimes, and the ability for larval dispersal or retention at patch to segment scales, were found to be important drivers of recruitment success. Hydraulic diversity is integral to providing appropriate conditions for food production and dispersal/retention of early-life stages. Connectivity at small to large scales is also critical in enabling access to appropriate habits and dispersal to maintain populations at catchment to basin scales. Our research also demonstrated that under drought
conditions, additional factors such as abundance and condition of adults, and maintenance of refuge areas are likely to be playing a critical role in determining recruitment success.

description: We theoretically study the transparency and amplification of a weak probe field applied to the cavity in hy- brid systems formed by a driven superconducting circuit QED system and a mechanical resonator, or a driven optomechanical system and a superconducting qubit. We find that both the mechanical resonator and the su- perconducting qubit can result in the transparency to a weak probe field in such hybrid systems when a strong driving field is applied to the cavity. We also find that the weak probe field can be amplified in some parameter regimes. We further study the statistical properties of the output field via the degrees of second-order coherence. We find that the nonclassicality of the output field strongly depends on the system parameters. Our studies show that one can control single-photon transmission in the optomechanical system via a tunable artificial atom or in the circuit QED system via a mechanical resonator.

description: Based on the Fokker-Planck equation we investigate the transport of an overdamped colloidal particle in a static, asymmetric periodic potential supplemented by a time-dependent, delayed feedback force, $F_{\mathrm{fc}}$. For a given time $t$, $F_\mathrm{fc}$ depends on the status of the system at a previous time $t-τ_\mathrm{D}$, with $τ_\mathrm{D}$ being a delay time, specifically on the delayed mean particle displacement (relative to some "switching position"). For non-zero delay times $F_{\mathrm{fc}}(t)$ develops nearly regular oscillations generating a net current in the system. Depending on the switching position, this current is nearly as large or even larger than that in a conventional open-loop rocking ratchet. We also investigate thermodynamic properties of the delayed non-equilibrium system and we suggest an underlying Langevin equation which reproduces the Fokker-Planck results.

description: The study of diets rich in different quantities of simple and complex carbohydrates is essential as an aid in the prevention of several types of organic damage. Objectives: To assess the effects of hyperglycidic, isocaloric diets with variations in carbohydrate type (simple or complex) on the metabolism of rats. Methodology: Forty Wistar rats were divided into 4 groups: control group (57.96% starch and 12.04% saccharose - CG), carbohydrate mixture group (35% saccharose, 35% starch - MG), simple-carbohydrate-group (70% saccharose - SG), and complex-carbohydrate-group (70% starch - CCG). The animals were allowed to habituate to the diets and then received them for 28 days, with free access to water. Results: Ration weight and consumption did not differ between groups. The amount of hepatic fat was found to be greater in SG compared to CG. Hepatic malondialdehyde (MDA) determination revealed that SG presented the lowest value, although this result was accompanied by the lowest vitamin E value, demonstrating that the consumption of this antioxidant was higher in SG. Reduced glutathione values did not differ between groups, raising the hypothesis that in this case vitamin E was the first antioxidant barrier to be utilized. Blood glucose levels differed between CG, MG and SG in relation to CCG only on day 14; however, the oral glucose tolerance test performed at the end of the experiment did not demonstrate a difference between groups. Serum fructosamine differed significantly between MG and CG and CCG and also between SG and CG and CCG, with the values for MG and SG being higher than those for the other groups. Conclusion: The consumption of simple carbohydrates led to hepatic steatosis and altered the antioxidant system even within a short period of time, in addition to modifying the fructosamine values, revealing an increase in glycated serum proteins that may cause damage over a longer period of time.

description: Objects of known brightness, like Type Ia supernovae (SNIa), can be used to measure distances. If a massive object warps spacetime to form multiple images of a background SNIa, a direct test of cosmic expansion is also possible. However, these lensing events must first be distinguished from other rare phenomena. Recently, a supernova was found to shine much brighter than normal for its distance, which resulted in a debate: was it a new type of superluminous supernova or a normal SNIa magnified by a hidden gravitational lens? Here we report that a spectrum obtained after the supernova faded away shows the presence of a foreground galaxy--the first found to strongly magnify a SNIa. We discuss how more lensed SNIa may be found than previously predicted.

description: The present experimental study investigates the mechanical behavior of intestinal anastomoses in Wistar rats. More specifically the response of the anastomoses to a properly applied uniaxial direct tensile load is studied and the respective tensile strength is determined. The surgical procedure of large bowel anastomoses is described in detail. In addition the authors provide a thorough description of the experimental apparatus, designed especially for measuring the tensile strength of the specimens under study, with special consideration in gripping of the intestine, the load application and the data acquisition and storage systems. This experimental model provides an excellent method for measuring the anastomotic strength and therefore a flexible tool for the comparative evaluation of various anastomotic techniques.

description: Hundreds of globular clusters and dwarf galaxies encircle the Milky Way. Many of these systems have undergone partial disruption due to tidal forces, littering the halo with stellar streams. These tidal tails are sensitive to the Galactic potential, facilitating an excellent laboratory to investigate Galaxy formation and evolution, as well as local chemical signatures of differing star formation environments. To better understand the emergence of the Milky Way, this thesis examines the dynamics and chemistry of a number of known stellar streams.

description: The fact that 10% of female mice enter oestrus and allow mating in the middle of the day is an old observation that has been more or less forgotten. We here show that this old knowledge can be used to improve the efficacy of both embryo transfer and insemination protocols. The present technical paper shows that rapid re-arrangements of mating cages, to achieve pseudo-pregnant recipients in the middle of the day, can be of great advantage in emergency situations. Such emergency situations occur repeatedly, i.e. when a scientist has forgotten to re-arrange her/his mating cages, and the last important male suddenly has become ill and may die within a few hours. A rapid technique for uterine artificial insemination in mice in such situations is extremely valuable. An artificial intra-uterine insemination requires only a minimum of planning, a minimum of instrumentation and a minimum of surgical training. The artificial insemination must be performed shortly after mating due to rapid constriction of the utero-tubual junction (UTJ). This means that the timing of the insemination is very important. We here show that the success rate for embryo transfers, when using recipients plugged in the middle of the day, was the same as for ordinary overnight mating protocols. In addition, it should be noted that the success rate (frequency of pregnancies) for uterine inseminations was 55% if using F1 recipients of C57BL/6J (considerable lower if using recipients of inbred C57BL/6J), which is amazingly high, since inseminations in mice is known to be tricky to perform in a reproducible manner.

description: Supernovae constitute a critical source of energy input to the interstellar medium (ISM). In this short review, we focus on their latest phase of evolution, the supernova remnants (SNRs). We present observations of three old SNRs that have reached the phase where they interact with the ambient ISM: W28, IC443, and 3C391. We show that such objects make up clean laboratories to constrain the physical and chemical processes at work in molecular shock environments. Our studies subsequently allow us to quantify the impact of SNRs on their environment in terms of mass, momentum, and energy dissipation. In turn, their contribution to the energy balance of galaxies can be assessed. Their potential to trigger a further generation of star formation can also be investigated. Finally, our studies provide strong support for the interpretation of gamma-ray emission in SNRs, a crucial step to answer questions related to cosmic rays population and acceleration.

Factors influencing the Yield of Transgenic Mouse Embryos for Cryopreservation

Year: 2014

description: Cryopreservation of pre-implantation embryos is a powerful tool to save and handle the increasing number of transgenic mouse lines, often consisting of very small populations. However, the outcome of embryos following superovulation and mating varies and is one of the limiting factors for cryopreservation. Using the data received together with the cryopreservation of more than 100,000 mouse embryos, the role of embryo yield limiting and of yield raising factors was analyzed: annual rhythms, seasonal changes (possibly due to environmental effects, such as extreme weather conditions), infections of a mouse colony, or the mating frequency of males. Then again to increase embryo yields two pheromonal effects were investigated: Especially the housing of female donors in small groups (Lee-Boot effect), but also the exposure to the future males’ bedding two days before mating (Whitten effect) resulted in remarkably higher embryo yields.

Using The BALB/c Asthmatic Mouse Model to Investigate the Effects of Hydrocortisone and a Herbal Asthma Medicine on Animal Weight
Creators: name: Ekpo, O E

description: Euphorbia hirta is an anti-inflammatory phytomedicine used to treat asthma. It contains, amongst other components, Quercitrin, which is converted to Quercetin in the alimentary canal and is thought to be responsible for its therapeutic potential. In this study, the BALB/c asthmatic mouse mode was used to investigate the short and long term effects of Euphorbia hirta on asthma and weight change. Hydrocortisone was used as positive control. Data showed that animals in both the short and long term control groups experienced slow but steady progressive weight increments. Both immunization and nebulization had positive weight gain effects on the animals but the effects were more pronounced following immunization but were only minimal following nebulization. Prolonged treatment with hydrocortisone remarkably reduced the cumulative weight gained following prior experimental procedures (immunization and nebulization), followed by a slow and sustained increase in the rate of weight gain. On the other hand, prolonged administration of the plant causes only a minimal reduction in weight gained due to induced asthmatic conditions. It is concluded that E. hirta, besides reducing asthma symptoms similarly to that of hydrocortisone (as seen with white blood cell counts), does not impact on weight gain as severely as hydrocortisone.

description: The role of the amino acid 3-methylhistidine as an indicator of protein breakdown and weight loss is often suggested. Despite existing information for other animal species, little is known about the actual levels of 3-methyhistidine in the serum of less studied domestic species such as the goat. We have evaluated the 3-methyhistidine serum concentrations in young Boer goat bucks subjected to two distinct feeding regimens: winter-grass hay with or without supplementation. Non-supplemented animals had a negative nitrogen balance and experienced weight loss throughout the experiment and significantly higher concentrations of 3-methyhistidine than supplemented animals that had a slight increase in live weight. This amino acid can be considered a valid indicator of protein breakdown and weight decrease in male goats. Serum 3-methylhistidine concentrations in adequately fed male goats were similar throughout the assay (20-40 μmol/l) whereas in weight-losing animals, concentrations of up to 170μmol/l can be expected.
