7%). Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, and a little part of Cyanobacteria occupied a major portion of water runoff while the soil was dominated by Acidobacteria (6-16.2%), Actinobacteria (5-16%), Bacteroidetes (0.5-8.8%), and Cyanobacteria (0.1-8.3%) besides Proteobacteria and Firmicutes. Higher numbers of biomarkers were found in soil group compared with the water group. The study area is diverse in terms of richness, while community structures are not evenly distributed. This study provides a preliminary understanding of the bacterial diversity and shifts in community structure in soil and meltwater runoff at the frontier of the glacial. The findings revealed that the environmental factors are a significantly strong determinant of bacterial community structures in such a closely linked ecosystem.
Fetuses of diabetic mothers are at increased risk for congenital malformations. Research in recent decades using animal and embryonic stem cell models has revealed many embryonic developmental processes that are disturbed by maternal diabetes. The aim of this review is to give clinicians a better understanding of the reasons for rigorous glycemic control in early pregnancy, and to provide background to guide future research.

Mouse models of diabetic pregnancy have revealed mechanisms for altered expression of tissue-specific genes that lead to malformations that are more common in diabetic pregnancies, such as neural tube defects (NTDs) and congenital heart defects (CHDs), and how altered gene expression causes apoptosis that leads to malformations. Embryos express the glucose transporter, GLUT2, which confers susceptibility to malformation, due to high rates of glucose uptake during maternal hyperglycemia and subsequent oxidative stress; however, the teleological function of GLUT2 for mammalian embryos m of GLUT2 for mammalian embryos may be to transport the amino sugar glucosamine (GlcN) from maternal circulation to be used as substrate for glycosylation reactions and to promote embryo cell growth. Malformations in diabetic pregnancy may be not only due to excess glucose uptake but also due to insufficient GlcN uptake. Avoiding maternal hyperglycemia during early pregnancy should prevent excess glucose uptake via GLUT2 into embryo cells, and also permit sufficient GLUT2-mediated GlcN uptake.
Impaired olfactory function is one of the main features of Parkinson's disease. However, how peripheral olfactory structures are involved remains unclear. Using diffusion tensor imaging fiber tracking, we investigated for MRI microstructural changes in the parkinsonian peripheral olfactory system and particularly the olfactory tract, in order to seek a better understanding of the structural alternations underlying hyposmia in Parkinson's disease.

All patients were assessed utilizing by the Italian Olfactory Identification Test for olfactory function and the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale-III part as well as Hoehn and Yahr rating scale for motor disability. this website Imaging was performed on a 3 T Clinical MR scanner. MRI data pre-processing was carried out by DTIPrep, diffusion tensor imaging reconstruction, and fiber tracking using Diffusion Toolkit and tractography analysis by TrackVis. The following parameters were used for groupwise comparison fractional anisotropy, mean diffusivity, radial diffusivity, axial diffusivity, and tract volume.

Overall 23 patients with Parkinson's disease (mean age 63.6 ± 9.3 years, UPDRS-III 24.5 ± 12.3, H&Y 1.9 ± 0.5) and 18 controls (mean age 56.3 ± 13.7 years) were recruited. All patients had been diagnosed hyposmic. Diffusion tensor imaging analysis of the olfactory tract showed significant fractional anisotropy, and tract volume decreases for the Parkinson's disease group compared with controls (P < 0.05). Fractional anisotropy and age, in the control group, were significant for multiple correlations (r = - 0.36, P < 0.05, Spearman's rank correlation).

Fiber tracking diffusion tensor imaging analysis of olfactory tract was feasible, and it could be helpful for characterizing hyposmia in Parkinson's disease.

The aim of this study is to assess the role of 3D printing of actual size pelvis in the management and outcome of acetabular fractures.

Retrospective study with inclusion of acetabular fractures which were divided into two groups (traditional and 3D printing) was done over a 1year period. The indices for comparison of both groups in this study were (a) operative time (from skin incision to suture), (b) intraoperative blood loss (noted from the anaesthetist notes), (c) times of intraoperative fluoroscopy, (d) postoperative complications, (e) quality of fracture reduction (good =  < 2mm displacement, fair =  > 2mm displacement) and (f) Harris hip score at final follow-up.

27 cases (traditional group = 15, 3D printing group = 12) meeting the study criteria were included in the study with a mean follow-up of 26.3 ± 11.2months. There was a significant difference in the operative time, intraoperative blood loss and number of intraoperative fluoroscopy images. The mean operative time was shorter in the 3D printing group by 62min. No difference was noted in the quality of reduction in either of the groups (p > 0.05).

3D imaging and printing helps in better understanding of the anatomy of acetabular fractures. It leads to reduced operative time, blood loss as well as exposure to radiation intraoperatively. There is no difference in functional outcome at final follow-up between 3D printing and traditional groups.

Multidisciplinary approach with adjuvant chemotherapy is the key element to provide optimal outcomes in pancreas and liver malignancies. However, post-operative complications may increase the interval between surgery and chemotherapy with negative oncologic effects.

The aim of the study was to analyse whether compliance to Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) pathway was associated with decreased interval to adjuvant chemotherapy.

Retrospective analysis of all consecutive ERAS patients with surgery for hepatobiliary or pancreatic malignancies at the University Hospital of Lausanne between 2012 and 2016. Multivariate analysis was performed to assess the impact of ERAS compliance on time to chemotherapy.

A total of 133 patients with adjuvant chemotherapy were included (n = 44 liver and n = 89 pancreatic cancer). Median compliance to ERAS was 61% (IQR 55-67) for the study population, and median delay to chemotherapy was 49 days (IQR 39-61). Overall, compliance ≥ 67% to ERAS induced a significant reduction in the interval between surgery and chemotherapy for young patients (< 65 years old) with or without severe comorbidities (reduction of 22 and 10 days, respectively).
