description: Purpose: In mammals, pupil constriction and dilation form the pupillary light reflex (PLR), which is mediated by both brain-regulated (parasympathetic) and local iris-driven reflexes. To better understand the cellular mechanisms that regulate pupil physiological dynamics via central and local photoreception, we have examined the regulation of the PLR via parasympathetic and local activation, respectively. Methods: In this study, the PLR was examined in mouse enucleated eyes ex vivo in real-time under different ionic conditions in response to acetylcholine and/or blue light (480 nm). The use of pupillometry recordings captured the relaxation, contraction, and pupil escape (redilation) processes for 10 minutes up to 1 hour. Results: Among others, our results show that ryanodine receptor channels are the main driver for iridal stimulation-contraction coupling, in which extracellular influx of Ca2+ is required for amplification of pupil constriction. Both local and parasympathetic iridal activations are necessary, but not sufficient for sustained pupil constriction. Moreover, the degree of membrane potential repolarization in the dark is correlated with the latency and velocity of iridal constriction. Furthermore, pupil escape is driven by membrane potential hyperpolarization where voltage-gated potassium channels play a crucial role. Conclusions: Together, this study presents new mechanisms regulating synchronized pupil dilation and contraction, sustained pupil constriction, iridal stimulation-contraction coupling, and pupil escape.

description: © 2019 Katti, Stacey-Solis, Coronel-Rojas and Davies. Reptiles are a highly diverse class that consists of snakes, geckos, iguanid lizards, and chameleons among others. Given their unique phylogenetic position in relation to both birds and mammals, reptiles are interesting animal models with which to decipher the evolution of vertebrate photopigments (opsin protein plus a light-sensitive retinal chromophore) and their contribution to vision. Reptiles possess different types of retinae that are defined primarily by variations in photoreceptor morphology, which range from pure-cone to rod-dominated retinae with many species possessing duplex (rods and cones) retinae. In most cases, the type of retina is thought to reflect both the lifestyle and the behavior of the animal, which can vary between diurnal, nocturnal, or crepuscular behavioral activities. Reptiles, and in particular geckos and snakes, have been used as prime examples for the “transmutation” hypothesis proposed by Walls in the 1930s-1940s, which postulates that some reptilian species have migrated from diurnality to nocturnality, before subsequently returning to diurnal activities once again. This theory further states that these behavioral changes are reflected in subsequent changes in photoreceptor morphology and function from cones to rods, with a return to cone-like photoreceptors once again. Modern sequencing techniques have further investigated the “transmutation” hypothesis by using molecular biology to study the phototransduction cascades of rod-and cone-like photoreceptors in the reptilian retina. This review will discuss what is currently known about the evolution of opsin-based photopigments in reptiles, relating habitat to photoreceptor morphology, as well as opsin and phototransduction cascade gene expression.

Subjects: Uncategorized

description: © 2019 Mohun and Davies. There have been a growing number of studies into the visual evolution of vertebrates. However, there remain few detailed integrative studies on the visual system of amphibians using morphological, molecular and physiological methods outside of a few model species. There are many examples of amphibian species that are closely related phylogenetically, but occupy vastly different ecological niches and so provide a substantial resource for the study of adaptive evolution. This review will examine the published literature on the three living orders of amphibians, the Anurans, Caudata, and Gymnophiona.

Realizou-se um inquérito, por quest ionário, com 1375 imigrantes residentes em Lisboa, selecionados pelo mét odo “ bola-de-neve”. Os dados foram analisados at ravés de regressão logíst ica. Do total de imigrantes, 61,5% reportou boa saúde, mais frequentemente os homens do que as mulheres. Em ambos os grupos, o mau estado de saúde reportado está associado a maior idade e à existência de doença crónica. Reportar má saúde está negativamente associado a ser africano e brasileiro (comparando com europeu de leste) e a ter escolaridade superior. Nas mulheres, ter mau estado de saúde está também associado a residir há mais tempo em Portugal, a percecionar os rendimentos como insuficientes, a reportar doença mental e a não prat icar exercício físico. Nos homens, ter má saúde está posit ivamente associado a não estar empregado e a não ter cuidados alimentares. As variações no estado de saúde ent re grupos de imigrantes e a influência das questões de género e do contexto socioeconómico e cultural devem ser consideradas no desenvolvimento de polít icas e est ratégias de ação direcionadas para a melhoria da saúde destas populações.

description: © 2018 American Academy of Ophthalmology Purpose: To investigate and describe in detail the demographics, functional and anatomic characteristics, and clinical course of Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) associated with mutations in the CEP290 gene (LCA-CEP290) in a large cohort of adults and children. Design: Retrospective case series. Participants: Patients with mutations in CEP290 identified at a single UK referral center. Methods: Review of case notes and results of retinal imaging (color fundus photography, fundus autofluorescence [FAF] imaging, OCT), electrophysiologic assessment, and molecular genetic testing. Main Outcome Measures: Molecular genetic testing, clinical findings including visual acuity and retinal imaging, and electrophysiologic assessment. Results: Forty patients with LCA-CEP290 were identified. The deep intronic mutation c.2991+1655 A>G was the most common disease-causing variant (23/40 patients) identified in the compound heterozygous state in 20 patients (50%) and homozygous in 2 patients (5%). Visual acuity (VA) varied from 6/9 to no perception of light, and only 2 of 12 patients with longitudinal VA data showed deterioration in VA in their better-seeing eye over time. A normal fundus was found at diagnosis in younger patients (mean age, 1.9 years), with older patients showing white flecks (mean age, 5.9 years) or pigmentary retinopathy (mean age, 21.7 years). Eleven of 12 patients (92%) with OCT imaging had preservation of foveal architecture. Ten of 12 patients (83%) with FAF imaging had a perifoveal hyperautofluorescent ring. Having 2 nonsense CEP290 mutations was associated with worse final VA and the presence of nonocular features. Conclusions: Detailed analysis of the clinical phenotype of LCA-CEP290 in a large cohort confirms that there is a window of opportunity in childhood for therapeutic intervention based on relative structural preservation in the central cone-rich retina in a significant proportion of patients, with the majority harboring the deep intronic variant potentially tractable to several planned gene editing approaches.

The Biological Mechanisms and Behavioral Functions of Opsin-Based Light Detection by the Skin
Creators: name: JL Kelley
name: Davies, Wayne
Publisher: name: La Trobe
Year: 2021
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: © 2016 Kelley and Davies. Light detection not only forms the basis of vision (via visual retinal photoreceptors), but can also occur in other parts of the body, including many non-rod/non-cone ocular cells, the pineal complex, the deep brain, and the skin. Indeed, many of the photopigments (an opsin linked to a light-sensitive 11-cis retinal chromophore) that mediate color vision in the eyes of vertebrates are also present in the skin of animals such as reptiles, amphibians, crustaceans and fishes (with related photoreceptive molecules present in cephalopods), providing a localized mechanism for light detection across the surface of the body. This form of non-visual photosensitivity may be particularly important for animals that can change their coloration by altering the dispersion of pigments within the chromatophores (pigment containing cells) of the skin. Thus, skin coloration may be directly color matched or "tuned" to both the luminance and spectral properties of the local background environment, thereby facilitating behavioral functions such as camouflage, thermoregulation, and social signaling. This review examines the diversity and sensitivity of opsin-based photopigments present in the skin and considers their putative functional roles in mediating animal behavior. Furthermore, it discusses the potential underlying biochemical and molecular pathways that link shifts in environmental light to both photopigment expression and chromatophore photoresponses. Although photoreception that occurs independently of image formation remains poorly understood, this review highlights the important role of non-visual light detection in facilitating the multiple functions of animal coloration.

description: © 2015 The Author. Cerebral palsy is a sporadic disorder with multiple likely aetiologies, but frequently considered to be caused by birth asphyxia. Genetic investigations are rarely performed in patients with cerebral palsy and there is little proven evidence of genetic causes. As part of a large project investigating children with ataxia, we identified four patients in our cohort with a diagnosis of ataxic cerebral palsy. They were investigated using either targeted next generation sequencing or trio-based exome sequencing and were found to have mutations in three different genes, KCNC3, ITPR1 and SPTBN2. All the mutations were de novo and associated with increased paternal age. The mutations were shown to be pathogenic using a combination of bioinformatics analysis and in vitro model systems. This work is the first to report that the ataxic subtype of cerebral palsy can be caused by de novo dominant point mutations, which explains the sporadic nature of these cases. We conclude that at least some subtypes of cerebral palsy may be caused by de novo genetic mutations and patients with a clinical diagnosis of cerebral palsy should be genetically investigated before causation is ascribed to perinatal asphyxia or other aetiologies.

description: Objective To investigate mental and physical health of mothers exposed to recent and early postpartum intimate partner violence (IPV) in the 10 years after having their first child. Design Prospective pregnancy cohort study. Setting Women were recruited at six metropolitan public maternity hospitals in Melbourne, Australia and followed up at 1, 4 and 10 years post partum. Study measures Exposure to physical and/or emotional IPV was measured using the Composite Abuse Scale at 1, 4 and 10 years. At 10-year follow-up, mothers reported on physical and mental health, and functional health status. Participants 1507 first-time mothers enrolled at mean of 15 weeks' gestation. Results One in three women experienced IPV during the 10 years after having their first child. Women experiencing recent IPV (19.1%) reported worse physical and mental health than women not reporting IPV. Compared with women not reporting IPV, women experiencing recent IPV had higher odds of poor functional health status (Adj OR=4.5, 95% CI 3.2 to 6.3), back pain (Adj OR=2.0, 95% CI 1.4 to 2.9), incontinence (Adj OR=1.8, 95% CI 1.2 to 2.6), depressive symptoms (Adj OR=4.9, 95% CI 3.2 to 7.5), anxiety (Adj OR=5.1, 95% CI 3.0 to 8.6) and post-traumatic stress symptoms (Adj OR=7.2, 95% CI 4.6 to 11.1) at 10 years. Women with past IPV at 1 and/or 4 years (15.7% of the cohort) also had higher odds of physical and mental health problems. There was evidence of a gradient in health outcomes by recency of exposure to IPV. Conclusions Both recent and past exposure to IPV are associated with poor maternal physical and mental health 10 years after a first birth. Health services and advocacy organisations providing support to women need to be aware of the consistent relationship between IPV and a range of physical and mental health conditions, which may persist even after IPV appears to have ceased.

Este art igo pretende apresentar o t rabalho de invest igação sobre este tema realizado por invest igadores do Instituto de Higiene e Medicina Tropical (IHMT), com vista a ext rair lições para o debate global sobre prestadores privados da saúde, ident ificando simultaneamente futuras áreas de invest igação. At ravés duma pesquisa bibliográfica e de comunicações pessoais, foram ident ificados os t rabalhos mais relevantes dos investigadores do IHMT publicados em revistas cient íficas de elevado impacto sobre o setor privado da saúde nos PALOPs nas últ imas t rês décadas. Estas publicações dizem respeito ao envolvimento dos médicos nas at ividades do setor privado formal e informal em África, ao mercado farmacêut ico público e privado em Moçambique, e ao duplo emprego dos t rabalhadores da saúde nos PALOPs. Este art igo conclui que a invest igação do IHMT nestas áreas tem, por um lado, cont ribuído para documentar a realidade e as experiências dos sistemas de saúde nos PALOPs e, por out ro lado, tem permit ido explorar as característ icas e o papel de inst ituições e atores públicos e privados da saúde em países de baixa renda, enriquecendo o debate sobre a definição dos mercados da saúde. Capitalizando os t rabalhos realizados, a futura invest igação do IHMT nesta área poderá incidir sobre o papel em África dos médicos que t rabalham exclusivamente no setor privado, sobre o t ipo de incent ivos económicos necessários para at rair os médicos para o setor público, e ainda sobre o papel das inst ituições de saúde na evolução da prát ica do duplo emprego dos médicos. Estas realidades deverão ser compreendidas em termos dos seus impactos na equidade de acesso a serviços de qualidade.

 According to Jones (1962) and Grolle (1995), all African records of the common Asiatic Plagochila javanica (sect. Vagae) should be erroneous. The species has been reported from Madagascar by Stephani (1894) and Dugas (1928), but the record of Dugas (as P. calva: leg. Camboué, PC) is P. angusta (Grolle [1995], however, identified it as P. rodriguezii); that of Stephani has not been revised. Jones (1962) identified a further P. javanica specimen from Madagascar (leg. Parker, New York) as P. heterostipa Steph., but the material probably belongs to P. terebrans (see above, under “Further record”).

Onto-Harmonic Fractal Theory is a falsifiable four-dimensional frameworkfor quantum gravity, characterized by a fractal spacetime with dimensionD ≈ 1.4, holistic integration of physical phenomena, and experimental testability.It comprises three pillars—Holographic Torsion (TTS), Quantum Encoding(SQS-Z), and Cosmic Signal Detection (AED)—unified by the SQS-Z crystal, agraphene-diamond structure vibrating at 137 Hz. T.A.O. encodes information ina fractal-holographic volume, distinct from bidimensional holographic paradigms.This paper details its theoretical foundations, experimental predictions, and informationencoding, supported by schematic illustrations and quantitative comparisonswith existing theories.

description: Die vorliegende empirische Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit dem Thema „Pfarrgemeinderäte in Österreich“. Sie stellt die Dokumentation eines Forschungsprozesses dar. Die Ergebnisse der Arbeit bilden die Grundlage für eine quantitative Befragung der österreichischen Pfarrgemeinderäte. Im ersten, theoretischen, Teil wird Literatur zum Thema beleuchtet. Als erstes werden die Statuten der zehn österreichischen Diözesen in den Blick genommen. Diese werden auf verschiedene Aspekte untersucht. Anschließend wird aktuelle Literatur vorgestellt. In einem zweiten Teil wird der Forschungsprozess nachgezeichnet. Herangehensweise und Methodologie werden dargestellt. In einem ersten Schritt wurde ein detaillierter Fragenkatalog ausgearbeitet. Anschließend wurden zwanzig qualitative Interviews geführt. Diese Interviews wurden codiert. Daraus ergaben sich bestimmte Themenfelder, zu denen Hypothesen gebildet wurden. Der Hauptteil der Arbeit umfasst diese Hypothesen, die den entsprechenden Kategorien des Fragenkataloges zugeordnet werden. Sie werden durch Stellen aus den qualitativen Interviews belegt. Die im Anschluss an die Auswertung der qualitativen Interviews gebildet wurden. Aus diesen Hypothesen ergaben sich für den zu erstellenden Fragebogenentwurf Fragestellungen, die im Anschluss an die jeweilige Hypothese stehen. Die vorgestellten Hypothesen orientieren sich am Leitfragenkatalog. Darüber hinaus wurde noch eine Fülle Themengebiete und Fragestellungen aus den Interviews herausgefiltert. Diese können nur sehr verkürzt und exemplarisch unter Punkt 4.3 nachgelesen werden. Abschließend wird noch ein kurzer Überblick über den weiteren Verlauf des Projektes gegeben.

description: © Copyright © 2020 Chang, Chung, Lawther, Ziegler, Shackleford, Sloan and Walker. Inflammation has been proposed to play a causal role in chemobrain which—if true—would represent an opportunity to repurpose existing anti-inflammatory drugs for the prevention and treatment of chemobrain. Here, we show that the chemoagent paclitaxel induces memory impairment and anhedonia in mice within 24 h of treatment cessation, but inflammation is not present until 2 weeks after treatment. We find no evidence of brain inflammation as measured by cytokine analysis at any time point. Furthermore, treating with aspirin to block inflammation did not affect paclitaxel-induced memory impairment. These findings suggest that inflammation may not be responsible for memory impairment induced by paclitaxel. These results contrast with recent findings of a causal role for inflammation in cancer-induced memory deficits in mice that were prevented by treatment with oral aspirin, suggesting that cognitive impairment in cancer patients undergoing treatment may arise from multiple convergent mechanisms.

description: © Copyright © 2020 Chung, Logge, Riordan, Haber, Merriman, Phipps-Green, Topless, Merriman, Conner and Morley. Background: Risk behaviors for young adults such as alcohol use are associated with increased risk of morbidity and mortality. Patterns of risk behavior may be genetically determined and vary between genders. Previous studies in both young adults and heavy drinking adult samples have demonstrated that some genotypes, such as OPRM1 A118G, COMT Val158Met and DRD2 Taq1A and DRD4 C52IT, may predict addictive behaviors including alcohol consumption and impulsivity, although results have been mixed. Methods: This study aimed to investigate the predictive relationship of these four single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) prospectively on student patterns of drinking using a micro-longitudinal daily diary design in a sample of 628 young adults ages 18–25 of predominantly of European ethnicity. Linear mixed models were used to examine the effect of SNPs on the number of drinks per drinking session with gender as a moderating variable. Results: There were no main effects for genotype on alcohol consumption, nor for gender × genotype for any of the SNPs. There was a trend for an effect of the DRD2 Taq1A on the number of drinks per drinking day and for the interaction of gender and DRD2 Taq1A on the number of drinks per drinking day. Conclusion: These findings suggest that the DRD2 Taq1A, OPRM1 A118G, DRD4 C521T, or COMT Val158Met polymorphisms, are not associated with alcohol consumption in young adults, although there may be a relationship between DRD2 Taq1A and alcohol consumption in young adult males.

description: Foresight methodologies enable individuals and organizations to envision different future scenarios and plan for greater future resilience. However, foresight is an underused methodology in the Western Pacific region for health policy development that could be extremely beneficial, among other areas, in the context of public health emergency response. We present lessons learned from the application of foresight methodologies through remote, agile think tank sprints to inform the World Health Organization (WHO) Western Pacific Regional Office's (WPRO) response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Four think tanks were set up in topic areas of interest. The think tanks used a six-step foresight methodology to develop scenarios for the pandemic in an 18-month horizon. Backcasting was used to generate recommendations for WHO response and support for countries. This case study demonstrates the value of using foresight methodologies in public health, and specifically in the context of a public health emergency, and its ability to inform more context-appropriate and future-proof responses.

Για τον σκοπό αυτό πραγματοποιήθηκαν οκτώ προσωπικές συνεντεύξεις με στελέχη που εργάζονται στον συγκεκριμένο οργανισμό. Τα αποτελέσματα της έρευνας έδειξαν ότι η ψηφιακή μετάβαση της ελληνικής δημόσιας διοίκησης έχει πολλαπλά οφέλη τόσο για τους πολίτες όσο και τα τους ίδιους τους δημόσιους οργανισμούς. Σε αυτό το πλαίσιο, είναι επιτακτική ανάγκη η περαιτέρω ψηφιοποίηση των δημόσιων υπηρεσιών και διοικητικών διαδικασιών γιατί ο Ψηφιακός Μετασχηματισμός μπορεί να αποτελέσει την αφετηρία για τη δημιουργία μιας διαφορετικής αντίληψης της δημόσιας διοίκησης που δείχνει σεβασμό στις ανάγκες του πολίτη, αλλά και ο πολίτης την εμπιστεύεται και τη θεωρεί προασπιστή των δικαιωμάτων του.
