habilitation in lumbar surgery. Despite many of the recommendations relying exclusively on expert opinion rather than published evidence, this approach is an important advance to improve concordance among healthcare professionals.Anorchia is a rare and often poorly understood disorder of sexual development. In the present case report, we used a multidisciplinary approach to diagnose a case of anorchia in a 30-month old dog. The diagnostic process began with gathering the dog medical history followed by a clinical visit with the patient, which included a general wellness examination as well as an examination of the genital system. As suggested in the relevant literature, the dog underwent an ultrasound and then computed tomography (CT) of the genital system, which confirmed the diagnosis of testicular agenesis. Genetic testing confirmed the male XY karyotype. Hormone testing also supported the diagnosis testosterone and anti-Müllerian hormone levels were below their reference ranges, and luteinizing hormone (LH) was above 1 ng/mL. Following the diagnostic procedures suggested in the relevant literature, the present study confirms anorchia in the dog and describes a case of testicular agenesis in the canine species.
To understand the characteristics of DNA methyltransferase 3a (DNMT3a) in thymoma associated Myasthenia Gravis reveal its transcriptional regulator network as while as analyze the effect of DNMT3a on Rel/ nuclear factor-kappaB family (RelA/RelB) and its downstream autoimmune regulatory factor (Aire).

Tissues of 30 patients with thymoma, with or without myasthenia gravis (MG), were collected and the DNMT3a protein expression were evaluated through immunohistochemistry. We performed mRNA expression profiling microarray detection and analysis, and integrated the analysis by constructing protein-protein interaction networks and the integration with other database. We identified molecular difference between low and high DNMT3a in the thymoma by heatmap. We also performed PCR validation in thymoma tissues. The DNMT3a-shRNA plasmid was transfected into TEC cells, and these cells were treated with 5-aza-2-deoxycytidine, a blocker of DNMT3a. After the down-regulation of DNMT3a in TEC cells, the transcript and protAire, and CHRNA3 mRNA and protein in TEC cells transfected with DNMT3a-shRNA interference plasmid were significantly decreased, while the expression level of RelA and RelA/RelB was significantly increased.

Our study reveals the DNMT3a-NF-κB pathway has a major effect on MG, and can be used as a marker for diagnosis as well as a target for MG treatment.

Evaluation of degree of conversion (DC), flexural properties, micro-hardness and color change (ΔE
) of dental resin composite after modification with two types of organo-modified Montmorillonite (MMT) nanoclay; an experimentally synthesized polymethyl-methacrylate modified MMT nanoclay (PMMA/MMT), and a commercially available one (Cloisite20A).

MMT was synthesized by sol-gel technique, organo-modified with polymethyl-methacrylate and characterized using EDX, XRD and FTIR. PMMA/MMT and Cloisite20A nanoclay were added to flowable resin composite in 0.5, 1 and 1.5 wt% concentrations. Unmodified resin composite was used as control group. DC was assessed by FTIR, flexural properties were tested by three-point bending test using a universal testing machine, micro-hardness was analyzed by Vickers micro-hardness tester and color change (ΔE
) was evaluated using a reflective spectrophotometer. SEM and elemental mapping assessment were performed to evaluate nanoclay distribution in resin composite. Data were analyzed using One-way ANOVA followed by Tukey's post hoc test, in addition to Two-way ANOVA (p≤0.05). Weibull analysis was used to analyze flexural strength results.

Characterization results revealed successful preparation of PMMA/MMT. DC results showed insignificant difference up to 1wt% of nanoclay concentration. Addition of 0.5wt% of PMMA/MMT significantly increased flexural properties, while addition of 1.5wt% of PMMA/MMT significantly decreased flexural properties. Micro-hardness results revealed a significant increase in PMMA/MMT groups in all tested concentrations. ΔE
results showed that color change was clinically acceptable on adding 0.5wt% nanoclay.

PMMA/MMT in 0.5wt% is a promising nanofiller for resin composite that significantly enhanced flexural strength and micro-hardness without compromising DC and color.

Moreover, the diagnostic gold standard, endomyocardial biopsy (EMB), is infrequently used, making hard to determine the exact incidence of myocarditis. Clinical presentation includes a wide range of symptoms, ranging from asymptomatic or subclinical disease with mild dyspnea and chest pain to sudden death, due to cardiogenic shock or malignant ventricular arrhythmias. Equally, the evolution of myocarditis largely varies albeit short-term prognosis is usually good, with complete or partial recovery, dilated cardiomyopathy with chronic heart failure is the major long-term consequence of myocarditis, developing often several years after the acute onset. This narrative review aims to summarize the current knowledge about myocarditis, with a particular attention to predictors of short- and long-term prognosis, in order to provide a rational and practical approach to the diagnosis, evaluation and treatment of suspected myocarditis.An Fe and N co-doped carbon nanotube (CNT) (Fe/N-CNT) was successfully prepared using a simple hydrothermal method. CNT, Fe doped CNTs (Fe-CNT), N doped CNTs (N-CNT), and Fe/N-CNT were characterized using scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and zeta potential analysis. The catalytic activities of the materials were investigated via pharmaceutical (acetaminophen, ACT) degradation using persulfate (PS). The ACT removal rate was in the order Fe-CNT > N-CNT > Fe-CNT > CNT, for 30 min with 10 mg/L ACT, 0.05 g/L materials, and 0.08 mM PS. The doped N existed as pyridinic-N, pyrrolic-N/N-Fe, graphitic-N, and oxidized-N, while the doped Fe existed as Fe-N, FeO/Fe3O4, and Fe2O3/FeOOH at the edge. The rates of ACT removal and PS decomposition were well correlated with pyrrolic-N/N-Fe. The ACT removal in the Fe/N-CNT + PS system was as high as >98.4% and was not significantly affected by the initial pH of 2.0-8.2 and ten consecutive uses. However, natural organic matter (NOM) inhibited ACT removal by the accumulation on Fe/N-CNT. The results of ACT removal in the presence of radical scavengers, PS decomposition, and cyclic voltammetry showed that the ACT removal was dominantly attributed to a non-radical pathway with the accelerated electron transfer from ACT to PS through the Fe/N-CNT. The results in this study strongly suggest that the Fe/N-CNT + PS system is an excellent process for the degradation of refractory organic pollutants in various water matrices with improved performance and stability attributed by non-radical pathway.Projections show that Earth's climate will continue to warm concurrent with increases in the percentage of the world's elderly population. With an understanding that the body's resilience to the heat degrades as it ages, these coupled phenomena point to serious concerns of heat-related mortality in growing elderly populations. As many of the people in this age cohort choose to live in managed long-term care facilities, it's imperative that outdoor spaces of these communities be made thermally comfortable so that connections with nature and the promotion of non-sedentary activities are maintained. Studies have shown that simply being outside has a positive impact on a broad range of the psychosocial well-being of older adults. However, these spaces must be designed to afford accessibility, safety, and aesthetically pleasing experiences so that they are taken full advantage of. Here, we employ an integrative review to link ideas from the disciplines of climate science, health and physiology, and landscape architecture to explain the connections between heat, increased morbidity and mortality in aging adults, existing gaps in thermal comfort models, and key strategies in the development of useable, comfortable outdoor spaces for older adults. Integrative reviews allow for new frameworks or perspectives on a subject to be introduced. Uncovering the synergy of these three knowledge bases can contribute to guiding microclimatic research, design practitioners, and care providers as they seek safe, comfortable and inviting outdoor spaces for aging adults.The color effluent discharged by alcohol distilleries comprises very high pollution loads due to the plethora of refractory chemicals even after anaerobic treatment and causing adverse effects to the environment. The present study aimed to examine the phytotoxic, cytotoxic, and genotoxic potential of the identified refractory organic and inorganic pollutants discharged in bio-methanated distillery effluent (BMDE). Physico-chemical analyses revealed that BMDE retains high BOD, COD, TDS along with heavy metals like Fe (572.64 mg L-1), Mn (4.269 mg L-1), Cd (1.631 mg L-1), Zn (2.547 mg L-1), Pb (1.262 mg L-1), (Cr 1.257 mg L-1), and Ni (0.781 mg L-1) beyond the permissible limits for effluent discharge. GC-MS analysis revelaed the presence of hexadecanoic acid, TMS ester; octadecanoic acid, TMS ester; 2,3 bis[(TMS)oxy]propyl ester; stigmasterol TMS ether; β-sitosterol TMS ester; hexacosanoic acid; and tetradecanoic acid, TMS ester as major refractory organic pollutants, which are listed as potential endocrine disruptor chemicals (EDCs) as per USEPA. Furthermore, phytotoxicity assessment with Phaseolus aureus L. showed the toxic nature of BMDE as it inhibited various seedling growth parameters, seed germination, and suppression of α-amylase activity in seed germination experiment. Moreover, genotoxicity and cytotoxicity evaluation of the discharged BMDE evidenced in root-tip meristematic cells of Allium cepa L. where chromosomal aberration such as disturbed metaphase, c-mitosis, laggard chromosomes, sticky chromosomes, prolonged prophase, polyploid cells, and apoptotic bodies etc. were observed. Thus, this study's results suggested that BMDE discharged without adequate treatment poses potential risk to environment and may cause a variety of serious health threats in living beings upon exposure.COVID-19 has reduced tourism in both museums and historical sites with negative economic effect. The wellbeing and good preservation of monuments is a key factor to encourage again tourism. Historical monuments exposed to outdoor pollution are subjected to well known degradation phenomenon including the formation on their surface of black crusts (BCs) causing blackening and deterioration of the monuments and, as a consequence, a worst fruition by the visitors. The aim of this research is the development and validation of a novel method to characterize and quantify the various components present in the black crusts. SO2 together with the carbonaceous fraction (i.e. STAT inhibitor OC, organic carbon, and EC, elemental carbon) represent the main atmospheric pollutants involved in the process of BCs formation which consists in the partial transformation of the carbonate substrate into gypsum where black particles are embedded. A new methodology based on the use of TGA/DSC (Thermogravimetric Analysis/Differential scanning calorimetry) and CHN (Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen) analysis was set up allowing to determine organic carbon and elemental carbon together with other components such as gypsum.
