Sartans and ACE Inhibitors: Mortality in Patients Hospitalized with COVID-19. Retrospective Study in Patients on Long-Term Treatment Who Died in the Italian Hospitals of Area Vasta n.5—Marche Region

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Introduction: During the 2019 Coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19), a concern emerged regarding a possible correlation between the severe form of SARS-CoV-2 infection and administration of ACE-Inhibitors (ACE-I) and Sartans (ARB), since long-term use of these drugs may potentially result in an adaptive response with up-regulation of the ACE 2 receptor. Given the crucial role of ACE2, being the main target for virus entry into the cell, the potential consequences of ACE2 up-regulation have been a source of debate. The aim of this retrospective cohort study on COVID-19-positive patients who died is to investigate whether previous long-term exposure to ACE-I and/or ARB was associated with higher mortality due to COVID-19 infection, compared to all other types of drug treatment. Methods: We analysed the clinical and demographic data of 615 patients hospitalized for COVID-19 at the two hospitals of the Vasta Area n.5, between March 2020 and April 2021. Among them, 86 patients, treated with ACE-Is and/0 ARBs for about 12 months, died during hospitalization following a diagnosis of acute respiratory failure. Several quantitative and qualitative variables were recorded for all patients by reading their medical records. Results: The logistic model showed that the variables that increase mortality are age and comorbid diseases. There were no demonstrable mortality effects with ACE-I and ARB intake. Conclusions: The apparent increase in morbidity in patients with COVID-19 who received long-term treatment with ACE-I or ARB is not due to the drugs themselves, but to the conditions associated with their use.

Medulloblastoma

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

The grading of oligodendrogliomas has proven to be a difficult undertaking complicated by several factors. Most important is the progressive nature of low grade oligodendrogliomas to anaplastic oligodendrogliomas, both biologically and histologically. In the absence of characteristic histotypic markers, the characterization of the oligodendroglial constituents themselves has proven to be subjective. This fact is best exemplified by the variable frequencies (from 5 to 25 percent of cases) of oligodendrogliomas noted by several groups investigating the occurrence of subtypes of gliomas (reviewed in Chapter 12). Another complicating factor seems to be the remark-able sensitivity of these tumors to therapies, a sensitivity that appears to be heightened among the so-called anaplastic types (Fortin et al., 1999; Bauman et al., 2000). However, to understand where the state of the art of oligodendroglial grading exists, it is important to review its history.

l1/2regularization for wavelet frames based few-view CT reconstruction

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Reducing the radiation exposure in computed tomography (CT) is always a significant research topic in radiology. Image reconstruction from few-view projection is a reasonable and effective way to decrease the number of rays to lower the radiation exposure. But how to maintain high image reconstruction quality while reducing radiation exposure is a major challenge. To solve this problem, several researchers are absorbed in l 0 or l 1 regularization based optimization models to deal with it. However, the solution of l 1 regularization based optimization model is not sparser than that of l 1/2 or l 0 regularization, and solving the l 0 regularization is more difficult than solving the l 1/2 regularization. In this paper, we develop l 1/2 regularization for wavelet frames based image reconstruction model to research the few-view problem. First, the existence of the solution of the corresponding model is demonstrated. Second, an alternate direction method (ADM) is utilized to separate the original problem into two subproblems, where the former subproblem about the image is solved using the idea of the proximal mapping, the simultaneous algebraic reconstruction technique (SART) and the projection and contraction (PC) algorithm, and the later subproblem about the wavelet coefficients is solved using the half thresholding (HT) algorithm. Furthermore, the convergence analysis of our method is given by the simulated implementions. Simulated and real experiments confirm the effectiveness of our method.
New Glasses in the PbCl2–PbO–B2O3 System: Structure and Optical Properties

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

New oxychloride lead borate glasses in the xPbCl2–(50-0.5x)PbO–(50-0.5x)B2O3 system were synthesized with a maximum lead chloride content of 40 mol%. The characteristic temperatures and mechanical and optical properties were studied. The incorporation of lead chloride led to a significant expansion of the transparency range in the UV (up to 355 nm) and IR regions (up to 4710 nm). Decreases in the Vickers hardness, density, and glass transition temperature were the consequences of a change in the structure. The studied glasses are promising materials for photonics and IR optics. The structure of the PbCl2–PbO–B2O3 system was analyzed in detail using vibrational spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction.

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

The processes e + e − → t¯t/b¯b + Higgs allow to measure the Yukawa couplings between Higgs bosons and heavy quarks in supersymmetric theories. The complete set of next-to-leading order SUSY–QCD corrections to the cross sections of these processes have been determined in the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model. They turn out to be O(10 − 20%) and thus important for future linear e + e − colliders PoS(HEP2005)351
Comparison between multivariate methods applied for the evaluation of genetic divergence in Cacao (Theobroma cacao L.)

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Several multivariate methods have been used in divergence analyses of populations. Consistency and relative association among four methods were assessed using a 5 x 5 complete-diallel data involving cacao cultivars. Over a 5-year period, five cultivars were analyzed based upon five yield components. In assessing the divergence of parents only the data obtained from five cacao cultivars were analyzed. Four multivariate statistics presented close association when considered in pairs, in this case the Mahalanobis' (D²) with the mean Euclidean distance obtained from canonical variates (d cv), and mean Euclidean distance (d e) with the mean Euclidean distance obtained from principal components (d pc). In both cases, high correlations (r > 0.95) were obtained. However, a weak association was detected between D² and de and between d pc and d cv (0.50 and 0.66, respectively). Thus, in studies on genetic divergence, statistics considering the error variance-covariance matrix should be preferred whenever its estimate is possible.

Response of mouse skin tumors to doxorubicin is dependent on carcinogen exposure.

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

To investigate the role of carcinogenesis in determining the response of tumors to anticancer drugs, we have used the in vivo model of multistage carcinogenesis of the mouse skin. Mice were initiated with Harvey murine sarcoma virus or single and repeated applications of dimethylbenzanthracene (DMBA). The papillomas which developed as a result of these initiation protocols were monitored quantitatively for their response to the anticancer drug doxorubicin. A single dose of 10 mg/kg doxorubicin is relatively inefficient at reducing the frequency of papillomas arising as a result of either single or repeated applications of the chemical DMBA. However, virally initiated papillomas are sensitive to the single 10-mg/kg dose of doxorubicin and are reduced in frequency by greater than 80%. Repeat treatment with four doses of 5 mg/kg doxorubicin over a 4-week period also reveals differences in the responses of the papillomas to doxorubicin. As with the single dose of doxorubicin, papillomas initiated with multiple applications of DMBA showed only a limited response to four 5-mg/kg doses of doxorubicin. In comparison both the virally initiated and the single DMBA initiated papillomas responded to the four doses of doxorubicin and are reduced in frequency by about 80%. These data show that the response of papillomas to doxorubicin is related to the initiating event. Papillomas derived by viral initiation are most sensitive to doxorubicin while increasing the level of exposure to the chemical carcinogen DMBA increases the proportion of papillomas which do not respond to treatment with doxorubicin. There was no obvious relationship between the method of initiation or the treatment of the mice with doxorubicin and the levels of P-glycoprotein expression observed in the papillomas. All the papillomas expressed detectable levels of P-glycoprotein approaching that of the multidrug resistant cell line, CHRC5.
I Should Learn to Feel Secure but I Don’t Because I Feel Insecure: The Relationship between Qualitative Job Insecurity and Work-Related Learning in the Public Sector

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

Employees who feel insecure about their job participate less in work-related learning. This is paradoxical given that work-related learning is advanced as a way to prepare for upcoming change. This may induce a cycle in which job insecurity leads to gradual more insecurity and less participation in work-related learning, yet this has not yet been probed in much detail. We study this cycle. In doing so, we account for different forms work-related learning, both formal and informal, and we focus upon felt insecurity about how the job might look like in the future, coined qualitative job insecurity: this has particular resonance in the public sector. Hypotheses were tested using a random-intercept cross-lagged panel model among 922 Flemish public sector employees Employees who experience higher qualitative job insecurity participate less in formal work-related learning and participation in formal learning decreases feelings of job insecurity. This aligns with the idea of cycles.
Optical spectroscopy of tris(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminium thin films

Field: Chemistry (Physical Sciences)

Abstract Amorphous tris(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminium (Alq3) thin films were deposited on fused silica substrates by thermal evaporation. Optical absorption, emission and excitation spectra were measured at room temperature and, for the first time, at 80 K, on an Alq3 film in a spectral range extending from the near ultraviolet to the visible. Spectroscopic features were carefully investigated as a function of temperature.
The prevalence of a non-phospholipid-binding form of beta2-glycoprotein I in human plasma--consequences for the development of anti-beta2-glycoprotein I antibodies.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

The presence of antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) is strongly correlated with venous and arterial thrombosis, fetal loss and thrombocytopenia. This relation is called the antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). It is well recognized that thrombosis related aPL are not directed against phospholipids alone, but to phospholipid bound plasma proteins like beta2-glycoprotein I (beta2GPI). aPL that need beta2GPI for the binding to negatively charged phospholipids are called anti-beta2GPI-antibodies. Recently, a mutation in the gene encoding beta2GPI has been described, which results in an amino acid substitution Trp316 into Ser316. This Ser316-beta2GPI did not bind to negatively charged phospholipids. Because only phospholipid bound beta2GPI is recognized by human anti-beta2GPI-antibodies, it might be argued that individuals carrying the Trp316Ser mutation are protected against the development of anti-beta2GPI-antibodies. To investigate this hypothesis, the prevalence of the Trp316Ser mutation was measured in 170 systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients and in 18 patients with the primary antiphospholipid syndrome (PAPS) and the mutation was correlated with the presence of anti-beta2GPI-antibodies. In the total patient group 1 homozygous patient and 21 heterozygous patients were found. The allele frequency of the mutation in SLE patients with anti-beta2GPI-antibodies (0.063) was comparable to that found in SLE patients without anti-beta2GPI-antibodies (0.062). These results indicate that the heterozygous presence of Trp316Ser mutation does not prevent an individual from developing anti-beta2GPI-antibodies. We showed that this can be explained by the concentration of Trp316-beta2GPI in heterozygous patients, which is far above the minimal beta2GPI level necessary for optimal phospholipid binding. In our single patient homozygous for the Trp316Ser mutation no binding beta2GPI to the phospholipid surface was detected and no anti-beta2GPI-antibodies were present in the plasma of this patient. In conclusion, heterozygous Trp316Ser beta2GPI persons are not protected against the development of anti-beta2GPI-antibodies. To confirm that homozygotes do not develop anti-beta2GPI-antibodies a very large population is needed, due to the relatively low prevalence of the mutation.
Solution of dynamic power flow technique considering governor nonlinearity

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

An improved dynamic power flow (DPF) model considering governor nonlinearity is presented. The proposed DPF model is intended for the analysis of post-contingency power flow after primary frequency regulation. During the regulation process, the governors play an important role while it is difficult to involve the nonlinear segments in the static method. So in this paper, the governor model with amplitude-limit and deadband is simplified and included in DPF model. Using the describing function method, the effect of deadband is equivalent to an increment of regulation coefficient. The amplitude-limit is handled by iterative correction. Applying the algorithm to a three-node system, a case study of load variation proves the effectiveness of the algorithm. Simulations on a practical grid in southern China further demonstrates the practicability and applicability. The algorithm enhances the accuracy of post-contingency power flow analysis and provides effective analysis for the static security of power system.
Coherent Coulomb excitation of relativistic nuclei in aligned crystal targets

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

We study coherent Coulomb excitation of ultrarelativistic nuclei passing through the aligned crystal target. We develop multiple scattering theory description of this process which consistently incorporates both the specific resonant properties of particle-crystal interactions and the shadowing effect typical of the diffractive scattering. We emphasise that the effect of quantum mechanical diffraction makes the physics of ultrarelativistic nuclear excitations entirely different from the physics of non-relativistic atomic excitations experimentally studied so far. It is found that at small transverse momenta $q_{\perp}$ the shadowing effect drastically changes the dependence of coherent amplitudes on the crystal thickness $L$, from the widely discussed growth $\propto L$ typical of the Born approximation to the inverse thickness attenuation law. At relatively large $q_{\perp}$ no attenuation effect is found but the coherency condition is shown to put stringent constrain on the growth of the transition rate with growing $L$.
Effects of culture factors on propagation of test-tube seedling of Cordyline terminalis

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

The effects of light intensity, temperature, and light period on the bud proliferation and root generation of Cordyline terminalis were studied in this paper. The results show that 3 000 lx of light intensity enhances bud proliferation of Cordyline terminalis, rather than 1 000 lx, 2 000 lx, and 5 000 lx. Enhancement of light intensity, increase of temperature, and elongation of light exposure can promote the growth of Cordyline terminalis. 

5G multi-antenna vehicle scattering characterization

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

In today's era of internet, everything is tending to be intelligent enough to be managed by itself. Following the same line, vehicles are more than vehicular machines. They are tending to be autonomously driven, able to communicate, and gather huge amount of data. For this purpose, vehicles of tomorrow should incorporate technology to be able to handle these requirements. Not only the internal communication, external communication is critical and vital to adapt vehicles in this sophisticated environment of autonomous driving. Connecting the vehicle to the present huge infrastructure is an important and also an interesting challenge. The main objective of this thesis is to validate a newer approach to study the characterization of scattering of an antenna in the presence of a supporting vehicle. This objective is addressed with the base of Radio Frequency (RF) imaging technique for some potential bands of Fifth Generation Wireless Communication Technology (5G). studies are done for different scenarios to validate the proposal.
Effect Of Diet on Serum Biochemical Parameters and Parasitism of Grasscutter (Thryonomis Swinderianus, Temminck, 1827) Raised in C?te D'ivoire

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Grasscutter (Thryonomis swinderianus Temminck, 1827), breeding has to face with numerous affections among which feeding is one. Since there is a need to improve the knowledge on the physiology of grasscutter serum biochemical parameters and parasites of digestive tract were determined using 32 grasscutters of ten months old, submitted to two different diets. Except creatinine, cholesterol and urea, the level of other parameters as total protein, and total bilirubin was significantly higher with granulate diet (p 0.05). The proportion of Coccidia was significantly higher with grass cuter receiving forage (p<0.001), with the proportion of Trichuris for which no difference was observed.
Anoxia and high primary production in the Paleogene central Arctic Ocean: First detailed records from Lomonosov Ridge

Field: Earth and Planetary Sciences (Physical Sciences)

Except for a few discontinuous fragments of the Late Cretaceous/Early Cenozoic climate history and depositional environment, the paleoenvironmental evolution of the pre‐Neogene central Arctic Ocean was virtually unknown prior to the IODP Expedition 302 (Arctic Ocean Coring Expedition–ACEX) drilling campaign on Lomonosov Ridge in 2004. Here we present detailed organic carbon (OC) records from the entire ca. 200 m thick Paleogene OC‐rich section of the ACEX drill sites. These records indicate euxinic “Black Sea‐type” conditions favorable for the preservation of labile aquatic (marine algae‐type) OC occur throughout the upper part of the early Eocene and the middle Eocene, explained by salinity stratification due to freshwater discharge. The superimposed short‐term (“Milankovitch‐type”) variability in amount and composition of OC is related to changes in primary production and terrigenous input. Prominent early Eocene events of algae‐type OC preservation coincide with global δ 13 C events such as the PETM and Elmo events. The Elmo δ 13 C Event has been identified in the Arctic Ocean for the first time.
Music in Italy To-Day

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Even, a lightning visit to Italy reveals the almost overwhelming musical activity in that country. Italy used to be one of the most conservative musical domains in Europe. A peculiar organization of concert and operatic life did not allow for a great influx of foreign works, particularly of a type to which the public taste would be unlikely to respond easily. As the Fascist regime fell more and more under the influence of national-socialist ideas of ‘cultural bolshevism’ the country became increasingly excluded from developments outside the totalitarian sphere and the war years cut what ties still remained. Now, as in Germany, a young generation is at work trying frantically to make up for the loss and to gain contact, aided by a general feeling that Italy, as the cradle of European music, must regain its place in the front ranks of musical developments.
