THE POSSIBLE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN AIRWAY RESISTANCE AND SURFACTANT PROTEIN IN OBSTRUCTIVE SLEEP APNOEA, A COMPLEMENTARY STUDY

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Objective: 1) to assess the potential relationship between parameters of airway resistance measured by impulse oscillometry and serum concentrations of surfactant proteins (SPs) in OSA patients; 2) to further investigate possible involvement of airway resistance in OSA pathogenesis. Design and method: This is a complementary cross-sectional study. 46 subjects who performed overnight polysomnography, plethysmograph, impulse oscillometry and measurement of serum SPs were enrolled. Subjects with apnea/hypopnea index more than and equal to 10events/h were defined as OSA group. Parameters of lung volume (FVC, FEV1, TLC) and airway resistance properties (Zrs5, R5–35, X5–35) were measured by plethysmograph and impulse oscillometry respectively and SP -A, B, C and D by ELISA. Results: OSA patient whose apnea/hypopnea index more than and equal to 10events/h was diagnosed in 22 patients (47.8 %). Mean age and BMI was 45.6 ± 6.73 years and 28.3 ± 3.22 kg/m2 respectively.1) non-smoking OSA subjects displayed significantly lower serum SP-A (133.37 ± 29.43 vs 162.54 ± 24.96 ng/L, p = 0.021), SP-B (40.78 ± 4.28 vs 48.89 ± 6.37ng/L, p = 0.002) and SP-D (15.68 ± 2.73 vs 19.32 ± 3.51ng/L, p = 0.016), and significantly larger R5-R20 (0.08 ± 0.04 vs 0.05 ± 0.03kPa/L/s, p = 0.035) than did non-OSA subjects; 2) significant negative correlation was observed between SP-D and respiratory system resistance at 5–20Hzs (r = −0.438, p = 0.041) in non-smoking subjects, which was even stronger among obese subjects. Conclusions: OSA patients showed decreased serum SP-A, B and D and increased airway resistance. Serum SPs, particularly SP-D, were associated with increased airway resistance and might be involved in the pathogenesis of OSA in non-smoking patients.
Weed Control using Pre-emergence Herbicide Strip Application System Along with Sowing/Planting Devices

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

A 6-row pre-emergence herbicide strip-application system was designed and developed at ICAR-CIAE, Bhopal as an attachment to inclined-plate planter to apply herbicide at the time of sowing in widely spaced crops to control weeds along the crop rows, often not possible in mechanical weeding. It consisted of a frame on which 6 flat fan spray nozzles were mounted by means of clamps, a single action piston pump with 9 l/min capacity, pressure regulator valve and pressure gauge and pressure pipes. The spacing between the spray nozzles, angle and height of spray nozzles can be varied by adjusting the clamps. The developed system has ability of strip as well as blanket application of herbicide. The same machine can be used as post-emergence herbicide/pesticide applicator after the removal of furrow openers and increasing the height of nozzles from the ground. The machine was tested and evaluated during Kharif season for soybean and pigeon pea crops. The field capacity of the developed system was found to be 0.4 ha/h. The operating cost of the pre-emergence herbicide applicator with inclined plate planter was worked out as Rs 1350/- per ha. It can save about 40-50% herbicide.
Islamic Groups in Europe: Between Community Affirmation and Social Crisis

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Until the middle of the 1980s, the social sciences took little interest in the presence in Europe of populations of Muslim origin. The people in question were generally classified according to categories which, depending on the country, counted them as 'immigrants', as 'Gastarbeiter', 'extracommunitari' or 'Blacks'. Each state followed the tradition established by its particular juridical and political norms in the ways it conceived of, and chose to describe, the overseas labour which came to work in its factories at the height of the 'thirty glorious years' of economic boom unleashed by post-war reconstruction.KeywordsPolitical TraditionIslamic GroupIslamic IdentityNational Liberation FrontSatanic VerseThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.

B fields in OB stars (BOB): Detection of a strong magnetic field in the O9.7 V star HD54879

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

The number of magnetic stars detected among massive stars is small; nevertheless, the role played by the magnetic field in stellar evolution cannot be disregarded. Links between line profile variability, enhancements/depletions of surface chemical abundances, and magnetic fields have been identified for low-mass B-stars, but for the O-type domain this is almost unexplored. Based on FORS2 and HARPS spectropolarimetric data, we present the first detection of a magnetic field in HD54879, a single slowly rotating O9.7 V star. Using two independent and different techniques we obtained the firm detection of a surface average longitudinal magnetic field with a maximum amplitude of about 600 G, in modulus. A quantitative spectroscopic analysis of the star with the stellar atmosphere code FASTWIND results in an effective temperature and a surface gravity of 33000$\pm1000$ K and 4.0$\pm0.1$ dex. The abundances of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, silicon, and magnesium are found to be slightly lower than solar, but compatible within the errors. We investigate line-profile variability in HD54879 by complementing our spectra with spectroscopic data from other recent OB-star surveys. The photospheric lines remain constant in shape between 2009 and 2014, although H$α$ shows a variable emission. The H$α$ emission is too strong for a standard O9.7 V and is probably linked to the magnetic field and the presence of circumstellar material. Its normal chemical composition and the absence of photospheric line profile variations make HD54879 the most strongly magnetic, non-variable single O-star detected to date.
Fine motor and visual motor skills as a component of school readiness

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

Understanding school readiness is of the utmost importance. The purpose of this study was to determine the extent to which fine motor/visual motor (FM/VM) skills are related to school readiness at a population level through: creating a FM/VM Index from Early Development Instrument (EDI) items; describing children with Vulnerable FM/VM skills; determining if Vulnerable FM/VM skills are related to readiness on other EDI constructs; and determining if the FM/VM Index provides information not provided by the EDI's Gross and Fine Motor (G&FM) Sub-Domain. A Delphi process and ROC curves identified an 11 questions FM/VM Index with a vulnerability cutoff of <80. Children with Vulnerable versus Not Vulnerable FM/VM skills were statistically different on a wide variety of child, environmental and health at birth variables. Logistic regressions for select EDI domains/sub-domains showed that better FM/VM skills decreased the odds of being Not Ready or Vulnerable on these domains/sub-domains. The addition of the FM/VM Index and G&FM Sub-Domain into these models provided a better model fit with the FM/VM Index models being generally preferable. Overall, this work suggests that FM/VM skills are an important skill set associated with school readiness and therefore need to be considered when evaluating school readiness.

Microplasma jet at atmospheric pressure

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

A nitrogen microplasma jet operated at atmospheric pressure was developed for treating thermally sensitive materials. For example, the plasma sources in treatment of vulnerable biological materials must operate near the room temperature at the atmospheric pressure, without any risk of arcing or electrical shock. The microplasma jet device operated by an electrical power less than 10W exhibited a long plasma jet of about 6.5cm with temperature near 300K, not causing any harm to human skin. Optical emission measured at the wide range of 280–800nm indicated various reactive species produced by the plasma jet.

Field: Veterinary (Health Sciences)

A real-time fluorescent quantitative RT-PCR assay for detecting classical swine fever virus(CSFV) was established and evaluated in experimentally infected pigs.The sensitivity of the assay was 10 copies/μL viral RNA,with an agreement of 94.7% with RT-nested PCR in detecting 152 different samples.The assay was used to detect CSFV in the whole blood samples of the pigs infected with 106 TCID50 Shimen strain and contact pigs.The results showed that there was an excellent correlation between clinical symptoms and viral RNA loads in the blood.Viral RNA can be detected in the blood samples of contact pigs 3 to 4 days prior to the onset of clinical signs.
Final Report on the Safety Assessment of Glutaral

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

The dialdehyde Glutaral (also commonly called glutaraldehyde) is used in a wide variety of cosmetics as a preservative. In vitro dermal penetration studies of Glutaral indicate low penetration through animal skin and even less through human skin. The oral LD50 of Glutaral for rats ranged from 66 mg/kg up to 733 mg/kg. A 28-day dermal toxicity study of Glutaral produced skin irritation and slight effects on weight and blood chemistry with concentrations as low as 50 mg/kg/day. Animal skin irritation was dose-dependant, with a no-effect concentration of 1%. Ocular exposure to Glutaral caused severe irritation in rabbits at concentrations 1%, with a no-effect level of 0.1%. Glutaral was not embryotoxic, fetotoxic, or teratogenic at concentrations that did not cause severe maternal toxicity. The no observable adverse effects level for reproduction toxicity was > 1,000 ppm. Bacterial mutagenesis tests produced mixed results, as would be expected for a preservative. In most mammalian system mutagenesis tests, Glutaral was not genotoxic. In a 2-year drinking water study in rats, there was an increase in large granular lymphocytic leukemia (LGLL), but only in females administered 50–1,000 ppm Glutaral. The response was not dose dependent. Clinical studies report some evidence of dermal irritation and sensitization, but no photosensitization. Occupational data and animal studies indicate that inhalation of Glutaral can cause respiratory irritation, in addition to skin effects. Evaluation of the increased incidence of LGLL in the 2-year drinking water study indicated that the incidence was within the historical control levels for this spontaneously occurring neoplasm. These data, however, were not considered sufficient to base a finding of safety of Glutaral in products intended for prolonged use. It was concluded that a 2-year dermal carcinogenicity study following National Toxicology Program (NTP) procedures was needed to complete the safety assessment of Glutaral for use in leave-on products. For rinse-off products, it was concluded that the ocular and dermal irritancy of Glutaral could be substantially avoided if the concentration did not exceed 0.5% and exposure was only brief and discontinuous. Because it can cause respiratory irritation, it was concluded that Glutaral should not be used in aerosolized cosmetic products.
A case of mild encephalitis associated with COVID‐19

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Abstract We report a case of mild encephalitis/encephalopathy with a reversible splenial lesion (MERS) in a 31‐year‐old man. He had been diagnosed with mild COVID‐19 3 days earlier and presented to the emergency department with altered mental status. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a high‐intensity area confined to the splenium of the corpus callosum on diffusion‐weighted imaging, which is consistent with MERS. MERS is characterized by a reversible change in the splenium of the corpus callosum. MERS secondary to COVID‐19 has been reported recently. It is important to consider MERS in COVID‐19 patients with impaired consciousness.
EFFECT OF VARIOUS BLOOD SAMPLING TECHNIQUES ON SERUM LEVELS OF PITUITARY AND THYROID HORMONES IN THE RAT

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Section of Clinical Endocrinology, Department of Medicine, and Zentrales Tierlabor, Medizinische Hochschule Hannover, 3000 Hannover 61, Germany ( Received 23 March 1977) The laboratory rat has served many researchers as an excellent model in the study of endocrine mechanisms. However, the great disadvantage of this animal, especially for the endocrinologist, is its sensitivity toward many types of stress (Ducommun, Sakiz & Guillemin, 1966; Neill, 1970; Ajika, Kalra, Fawcett, Krulich & McCann, 1972; Harms, Langlier & McCann 1975). It has been shown that mild stimuli such as handling or cage transport may have significant effects on the release of pituitary, adrenal and thyroid hormones in the male rat (Baldwin, Colombo & Sawyer, 1974; Euker, Meites & Riegle, 1975; Döhler, Gärtner, von zur Mühlen & Döhler, 1977). To obtain accurate information about the genuine state of endogenous hormone circulation, it is of great importance to select blood sampling procedures which have little or
On the Effects of Oolchicine Treatment of Mouse Embryos

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

(1. ) A description is given of the disintegration and fate of mouse embryos after colchicine injections into the mother. (2. ) The process is treated in detail for characteristic early and late stages of six- and ten-day embryo age, when the dead tissues remain attached for some time to the uterine wall before breaking up and being discharged, apparently with the oestrous fluid and by the ordinary mechanism of the oestrou.s cycle. (3. ) There is no evidence of any true re-absorption of the embryo and its associated tissues. A comparison is made with naturally occurring breakdowns, and it is suggested that the process is basically similar but slower and with leucocytes playing a less-prominent part.
Identification of Genes Associated with the Progression of Adult T Cell Leukemia (ATL)

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

Patients with adult T‐cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) exhibit a variety of clinical features, and this disease is therefore clinically subclassified into acute, lymphomatous, chronic, and smoldering types. Acute ATL is a typical leukemic form of ATL with rapid progression, and chronic ATL is a less aggressive clinical form allowing long‐term survival even without chemotherapy. In the present study, we used fresh peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from both types of ATL patients to identify molecules that may contribute to the difference between acute and chronic ATL. Isolated mRNAs expressed differentially between the two types of ATL include a T‐cell differentiation antigen (MAL), a lymphoid‐specific member of the G‐protein‐coupled receptor family (EBI‐1/CCR7), a novel human homologue to a subunit (MNLL) of the bovine ubiquinone oxidoreductase complex, and a human fibrinogen‐like protein (hpT49). We found that the former three are upregulated in acute ATL and the last is down‐regulated in both chronic and acute ATL. We speculate that dysregulation of the genes may account for the malignant features of ATL cells, in terms of growth, energy metabolism, and motility.
The floaters for submarine-cable landing and its engineering applications

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Abstract The floater can be employed to provide additional buoyancy to the submarine cable during its landing to ensure its routing and connection with the onshore connectors. With the update of the voltage-class of the submarine cable, to ensure the efficiency and quality of the landing operations, the floater has been changed from the traditional waste tires to the new types of pre-fabricated floaters. In this paper, the characteristics of different floaters will be introduced and compared with the engineering applications. The development trends of the floaters for submarine-cable landing are proposed.
The emerging role of miR-10 family in gastric cancer

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

Evidence has demonstrated that miRNAs play an irreplaceable role in tumorigenesis and progression of a broad range of cancers, including gastric cancer. Among these miRNAs, miR-10a and miR-10b have been identified to critically participate in gastric carcinogenesis and malignant progression. In this review, we briefly describe the role of miR-10a and miR-10b in gastric cancer, especially in the regulation of cell proliferation, apoptosis, cell cycle, migration, invasion and metastasis, drug resistance, and cancer stem cells. Furthermore, we highlight several compounds that target the miR-10 family and exhibit antitumor activity in cancer cells. Moreover, we conclude that targeting the miR-10 family might be a promising approach for the treatment of gastric cancer.
SOIL QUALITY INDICATORS UNDER DIFFERENT LAND USE SYSTEMS IN THE AGRESTE REGION OF PARAIBA, BRAZIL

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

SUMMARY: Cropping systems modify soil attributes and may change its quality.The work had the objective to evaluate the changes in physical, chemical and biological soil under organic farming systems (soils cultivated organically for more than seven years), in conversion to organic and conventional, with reference to the soil under native forest, and identify the attributes used as indicators of soil quality. Three areas of farm crops, located in the municipalities of Areia, Remígio, and Lagoa Seca, the state of Paraíba, Brazil were selected, and soil samples deformed collected in the layers 0-10 and 10-20 cm. The data were analyzed using ANOVA, the Tukey Test, and the Principal Component Analysis. There was a reduction of soil density (Ds) and increased porosity (PT) in the system of organic farming compared to cropping systems in conversion organic and conventional. The contents of phosphorus and organic carbon (CO), the base sum (SB), cation exchange capacity (CTC), light particulate organic matter (MOPL), carbon particulate organic matter light (CMOPL), edaphic respiration (RE) and pH of soils under organic cultivation are higher than soils under conventional tillage.The growing organic basis contributes to the maintenance of soil quality under similar conditions and/or even better than the condition forest and, under the conditions of this study, the most appropriate indicators to analyze the cultivation organic basesare Ds, PT, CO, MOPL, CMOPL, pH, SB, CTC e RE.
A Fractal Uncertainty Principle for the Short-Time Fourier Transform and Gabor multipliers

Field: Mathematics (Physical Sciences)

We study the fractal uncertainty principle in the joint time-frequency representation, and we prove a version for the Short-Time Fourier transform with Gaussian window on the modulation spaces. This can equivalently be formulated in terms of projection operators on the Bargmann-Fock spaces of entire functions. Specifically for signals in $L^2(\mathbb{R}^d)$, we obtain norm estimates of Daubechies' time-frequency localization operator localizing on porous sets. The proof is based on the maximal Nyquist density of such sets, and for multidimensional Cantor iterates we derive explicit upper bound asymptotes. Finally, we translate the fractal uncertainty principle to discrete Gaussian Gabor multipliers.
