cati genotypes. Moreover, the gene flow (Nm) between T. cati genotypes was very low. Results of AMOVA revealed higher genetic variation between genotypes (92.82%) as compared to the variation within genotypes (7.18%). The neutrality indices and mismatch distributions for the G1-G4 genotypes, Indian isolates and the overall dataset of T. cati indicated either a constant population size or a slight population increase. The geographical distribution of all the genotypes of T. cati is also reported. This is the first report of genotyping of T. cati on the basis of the ITS region.Leishmania donovani and Leishmania infantum are closely related species. However, the former is considered the causative agent for anthroponotic visceral leishmaniasis (AVL), while the latter is known to be responsible for zoonotic visceral leishmaniasis (ZVL) with dogs as the main reservoir host. Although molecular detection of L. donovani from naturally infected dogs has been reported in AVL endemic areas, the experimental infection of dogs with this species is very limited. Here, we constructed an experimental canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) model with L. donovani infection using beagle dogs. During an observation period of 8 months after parasite inoculation, few clinical symptoms were observed in the three inoculated dogs. The overall hematological and biochemical data of the dogs showed normal levels, and there were no remarkable changes in the peripheral CD4+, CD8+, CD25+, or FoxP3+ T cell populations. Liver biopsy sampling was conducted to monitor the parasite burden in the liver. A similar pattern of the amount of mitochondrial kinetoplast DNA was observed in the peripheral blood and liver by real-time PCR analysis. In addition, parasite antigens were detected from the liver biopsy sections by immunohistochemical analysis, further supporting the existence of parasites in the liver. These results showed a subclinical CVL model for L. donovani in beagle dogs with a similar kinetics of parasite burden in the peripheral blood and liver.
Data on the efficacy and safety of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for treatment of radiation-induced meningiomas (RIMs) are limited.

A single institution database of Cobalt-60 SRS cases from 08/1999 to 10/2020 was reviewed. Radiation-induced meningiomas were identified using Cahan's criteria. Endpoints included overall survival (OS), progression free survival (PFS), local control (LC), treatment failure, and treatment toxicity. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed using cox proportional hazard models.

A total of 29 patients with 86 RIM lesions wereidentified. Median follow-up after SRS was 59months. The median dose prescribed to the 50% isodose line was 14Gy (range 12-20Gy). The actuarial 5-yr OS and PFS were 96% and 68%, respectively. Patients treated for recurrent RIMs had a significantly lower PFS (45% vs 94% at 3yr, p < 0.005) than patients treated in the upfront setting. Patients with presumed or WHO grade I RIMs had a significantly greater PFS (3-year PFS 96% vs 20%) than patients with WHO grade II RIMs (p < 0.005). On a per-lesion basis, local control (LC) at 1-, 3-, and 5-yrs was 82%, 76%, 74%, respectively. On multivariate analysis, female gender was associated with improved LC (p < 0.001), while marginal doses > 14Gy were associated with worse local control (p < 0.001). Grade I-III toxicity following treatment was 9.0%.

Stereotactic radiosurgery is a safe and effective treatment option for radiographic RIMs, WHO grade I RIMs, or lesions treated in the upfront setting. WHO grade II lesions and recurrent lesions are at increased risk for disease progression.

Intrapartum fetal death is devastating for both parents and medical caregivers. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the risk factors for intrapartum fetal death, which often influence management in subsequent pregnancies.

This population-based cohort study included all singleton deliveries between the years 1991-2016 at Soroka University Medical Center. Trends over the years, risk factors for intrapartum fetal death and the effect of day of the week were examined. A generalized estimation equation (GEE) model was used to control for confounders.

During the study period 344,536 deliveries were recorded, of which 251 (0.1%) suffered intrapartum fetal death. Rates did not change significantly over the years (p = 0.130, using the chi-square test for trends). Preterm delivery, placental abruption, uterine rupture, shoulder dystocia, congenital malformations, severe preeclampsia and fetal malpresentation were significantly more common in pregnancies complicated by intrapartum death. Using a GEE model; sl death remain elusive.
Lymphedema is a frequent complication after surgical treatment in gynecological oncology with substantial impact on patients´ Quality of Life (QoL). Little is known about screening instruments and prevention. Primary objective was to develop and validate the German version of a 13 items screening questionnaire (SQ) developed by Yost et al. to provide a valid instrument for early diagnosis of lower extremity lymphedema (LEL).

After translation the SQ was used in pt. with cervical or endometrial cancer who underwent pelvic/paraaortic Lymphadenectomy. Sensitivity and specifity were analysed regarding possible prediction and influencing factors of LEL.

67 pt. had LEL (N = 128). Nearly 50% of women in each group (38 in LEL + e 30 in LEL -) had a body mass index (BMI) > 30kg/m
. Number of removed lymphnodes, radiotherapy and were significantly associated with development of LEL. Translated Mayo Clinic questionnaire can be used with reliable specifity and sensitivity. Four additional questions improved the diagnostic accuracy of the SQ.

The translated SQ is a valuable and predictive tool for screening and early detection of LEL in Gynecological cancer surgery and can even improved by adding simple questions.

This research deals with the mucus velocity variations inside the nasal cavity using two different power law and thixotropic mucus layers. The cilia movement is replaced with four cyclic velocity profiles at the lower boundary of the mucus layer, while the upper boundary is exposed to the free-slip condition. The effects of boundary conditions and different fluid parameters are evaluated on the mucus flow. Furthermore, the replacement of power law and thixotropic mucus layers with a high viscous Newtonian mucus is examined under the free-slip condition at the mucus upper boundary. The adaptation rate is used as the criteria for replacing fluids instead of each other. The results show the mucus flow has enough time to adjust the changes from the lower boundary and the recovery stroke does not affect the mucus velocity in the effective stroke. Moreover, it is observed that the mucus flow variations are the same under the influence of recovery, breakdown, and breakdown exponent parameters. However, the effects of the exponent parameter on the mucus flow are more than the other two parameters in the recovery stroke. It is concluded that the assumption for replacing the power law mucus with a high viscous Newtonian one is acceptable. However, this assumption leads to the maximum error of 98.5% for thixotropic mucus in the recovery stroke.The association between respirophasic variation and lung fluid levels is unknown. Remote dielectric sensing (ReDS™) is a novel non-invasive technology to quantify lung fluid levels. We investigated the change in ReDS values over the course of the respiratory cycle. Patients with clinically stable chronic heart failure at outpatient clinics were prospectively included. ReDS values were measured at three respiratory statuses and compared (1) at rest with normal breathing, (2) at inspiration, and (3) at expiration. A total of 11 patients were included. Median age was 73 (58, 78) years and 9 were men. Iadademstat ReDS value was 28% (25%, 32%) at rest and decreased significantly with inspiration down to 26% (24%, 30%) (p = 0.004). ReDS value were significantly higher on expiration as 30% (27%, 34%) as compared with rest (p = 0.003). Lung fluid levels in chronic heart failure patients can vary with changes in the respiratory cycle-attention should be paid to what point in the respiratory cycle measurements are taken when interpreting results in each modality, such as chest X-ray (measured at inspiratory status) and right heart catheterization (measured at expiratory status). ReDS system might be a physiologically ideal modality to assess lung fluid amount under natural breathing.Although evidence has accumulated to indicate that Schwann cells (SCs) differentiate into repair SCs (RSCs) upon injury and that the unique phenotype of these cells allow them to provide support for peripheral nerve regeneration, the details of the RSCs are not fully understood. The findings of the current study indicate that the RSCs have enhanced adherent properties and a greater capability to promote neurite outgrowth and axon regeneration after peripheral nerve injury, compared to the non-RSCs. Further, transcriptome analyses have demonstrated that the molecular signature of the RSCs is distinctly different from that of the non-RSCs. The RSCs upregulate a group of genes that are related to inflammation, repair, and regeneration, whereas non-RSCs upregulate genes related to myelin maintenance, Notch, and aging. These findings indicate that the RSCs have markedly different cellular, regenerative, and molecular characteristics compared to the non-RSCs, even though the RSCs were just derived from non-RSCs upon injury, thus providing the basis for understanding the mechanisms related to SC mediated repair after peripheral nerve injury.
This study clarified the function of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell (hUCMSC)-derived extracellular vesicle (EV)-enclosed miR-655-3p in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).

A Chi-square test and the Kaplan-Meier estimator were used to analyze the prognosis of ESCC in relation to the expression of miR-655-3p. ESCC cells were incubated with PBS or hUCMSC-derived EVs (hUCMSC-EVs) in the conditions of gene modification, after which the malignant behaviors of ESCC cells were assessed and the molecular interactions were determined. The effect of hUCMSC-derived EV-miR-655-3p was also investigated in a nude mouse model of ESCC.

Low expression of miR-655-3p indicated poor prognosis of ESCC. hUCMSC-EVs suppressed the malignant behaviors of ESCC cells and the growth and liver metastasis of transplanted tumors. Inhibition of miR-655-3p in hUCMSCs impaired the therapeutic effect of hUCMSC-EVs. LMO4, targeted by miR-655-3p, activated the transcription of HIF-1α by sequestering HDAC2 from HIF-1α promoter.
