Abstract
Anuloma viloma pranayama (AVP) also known as Alternate nostril breathing (ANB) is the most commonly used form of pranayama, the ancient breath control practice. It is known to modulate cardiovascular control and brain activity. This study analysed the simultaneous recording of Heart rate variability (HRV) and brain activity during and after AVP at a very slow frequency. We carried out an observational cohort study from October 2021 to December 2021 with purposive sample of 30 (Thirty) healthy volunteers involved in regular kriya yoga practice for the last 15 years were inducted into this study AVP involves slow and deep inhalation through one nostril at a time. The ECG for HRV analysis and spectrum of EEG waves were recorded throughout the pre-AVP, during-AVP and post-AVP (each of five-minute duration). The parameters were compared and analysed by repeated measures of analysis of variance with post-hoc analysis using Bonferroni and Holm's multiple comparisons. In time Domain parameters, SDNN and RMSSD were significantly higher during AVP as compared to the pre-AVP and post AVP. In frequency domain parameters total power, LF power, HF power, showed a significant increase during AVP, LF/HF ratio increased during AVP and remained higher post-AVP also. Similarly, Alpha, Beta and Gamma wave power increased significantly during AVP as compared to pre-AVP and post-AVP. The lungs-heart-brain act as coupled oscillators, the analysed data show an increased arousal, attentive and focused state with a negligible change in the heart rate. An overall increased variability in HRV was recorded.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
Does clinical pregnancy rate improve using combination of letrozole and clomiphene versus letrozole alone for ovulation induction in infertile women with PCOS
Summary answer
The present study showed that combination drugs had no added advantage over Letrozole alone in terms of ovulation induction.
What is known already
Letrozole can offer a benefit over CC for ovulation induction because it doesn’t block estrogen receptors in both central and peripheral target tissues, therefore normal central feedback mechanisms remain intact. As letrozole and CC have different mechanisms of action, the combination of these medications can achieve an improved ovulatory rate over letrozole alone.
We aimed to test the hypothesis of whether combined therapy of letrozole and CC is effective and superior to the use of letrozole alone to achieve pregnancy in women with PCOS.
Study design, size, duration
Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial conducted from July 2019 to December 2020 at tertiary care centre in Uttarakhand
According to studies done earlier (49), it was observed that proportion of positive outcome in letrozole and clomiphene citrate combined therapy was assumed to be 0.7700 and for letrozole therapy alone was 0.4400. With significance level of 0.05 and power 90% a sample size of 42 in each group to detect assumed 0.33 difference between the two groups.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
68 patients randomised in two group. Group I received combination of Letrozole (2.5mg) and clomiphene citrate (50 mg) once daily for 5 days (day 3-7 of cycle). Group II received Letrozole 2.5mg once daily for 5 days (day 3-7 of cycle) for 4 cycles. After induction follicular monitoring done and HCG given when dominant follicle size > =18mm with ET > =8mm followed by timed intercourse.
Main results and the role of chance
No statistically significant difference seen between the two groups in baseline characterstics. Comparing the pregnancy rate, 9.3% in Group 1 (n = 3) & 6.3% in Group 2 (n = 2) became pregnant after first cycle of ovulation induction (OVI), after 2nd cycle, 7.1% in Group 1 (n = 2) & 13.8% in Group 2 (n = 4) became pregnant. 11.5 % in Group 1 (n = 3) & 8.0 % in Group 2 (n = 2) became pregnant after cycle 3 and 21.7% in Group 1 (n = 5) & 8.7% in Group 2 (n = 2) became pregnant after 4th cycle of OVI. Though the pregnancy rate was statistically not significant in all the cycle (p < 0.615,0.413,0.671,0.218 respectively). The median number of cycles required for conception in Group 1 was 3 and that of group 2 was 2.
Limitations, reasons for caution
Small sample size
Larger multicentric randomised controlled trials required
Wider implications of the findings
Pregnancy rate was higher when ovulation induction was done using combination of clomiphene and letrozole but difference was not statistically significant.
Mean number of cycles required for conception similar in both groups.

Abstract
The study of nuclei and antinuclei production has proven to be a powerful tool to investigate the formation mechanism of loosely bound states in high-energy hadronic collisions. The first measurement of the production of _{Λ}^{3}H in p-Pb collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=5.02 TeV is presented in this Letter. Its production yield measured in the rapidity interval -1<y<0 for the 40% highest-multiplicity p-Pb collisions is dN/dy=[6.3±1.8(stat)±1.2(syst)]×10^{-7}. The measurement is compared with the expectations of statistical hadronization and coalescence models, which describe the nucleosynthesis in hadronic collisions. These two models predict very different yields of the hypertriton in charged particle multiplicity environments relevant to small collision systems such as p-Pb, and therefore the measurement of dN/dy is crucial to distinguish between them. The precision of this measurement leads to the exclusion with a significance larger than 6.9σ of some configurations of the statistical hadronization model, thus constraining the theory behind the production of loosely bound states at hadron colliders.

Abstract
Abstract
During the pandemic it became critical to reduce visiting to only very specific situations. This resulted in an increase of complaints where a lack of communication from the ward had been recognised as a theme, in spite of the fact that many doctors spent a great deal of time providing updates over the phone to patient’s families. It was noted there were a number of inefficiencies with respect to communicating with families; some families were being contacted repeatedly whereas others were struggling to get in touch. Chronic staffing shortages were also a barrier to effective and timely communication. Qualitative data collected via an online survey demonstrated that junior doctors valued the importance of communicating with families, particularly to provide clinical updates or obtain collateral histories, but found that the extra burden created by the pandemic resulted in far less time to do this efficiently and often resulted in time management difficulties.
We introduced a strategy, by way of a magnetic communication board, that provided a flexible, at-a-glance method of ensuring all families had received regular updates from the medical team and collateral histories had been obtained for all relevant patients. We collected weekly data regarding the number of interactions between the medical team and patient relatives’ as a percentage of the total number of bed spaces. An overall improvement was noted: 67% pre-intervention to 76% post, with a maximum of 88% during one particularly successful week. We also were able to demonstrate an increase in ReSPECT form completion (from 40% to 65%).
The introduction of an organisational tool such as our communication board resulted in improved patient and relatives’ satisfaction; and an improvement in team performance and overall time management. We are now aiming to build on this and roll it out during the next wave of the pandemic.

Abstract
Summary
Debiased machine learning is a meta algorithm based on bias correction and sample splitting to calculate confidence intervals for functionals, i.e., scalar summaries, of machine learning algorithms. For example, an analyst may desire the confidence interval for a treatment effect estimated with a neural network. We provide a non-asymptotic debiased machine learning theorem that encompasses any global or local functional of any machine learning algorithm that satisfies a few simple, interpretable conditions. Formally, we prove consistency, Gaussian approximation, and semiparametric efficiency by finite sample arguments. The rate of convergence is n−1/2 for global functionals, and it degrades gracefully for local functionals. Our results culminate in a simple set of conditions that an analyst can use to translate modern learning theory rates into traditional statistical inference. The conditions reveal a general double robustness property for ill-posed inverse problems.

Abstract
In this fast-paced lifestyle with escalating cases of anxiety and depression, millennial are trying to find meaning in life and at work. The presence of high-octane electronic media both in millennial’ personal & professional life is making them more anxious about their career and personal beliefs. There is a belief that a person who exhibits spiritual intelligence is most likely to achieve a sense of job satisfaction in life. Various MNCs are organizing many programs to develop and enhance the employee’s spiritual intelligence. This paper focuses on millennial working in the Defense and IT field with empirical study to analyze the influence of spiritual intelligence on their job satisfaction. Dhamodharan and Ravikumar mention that millennial, born in the period between 1981-1995, witnessed consumerism and technological advancement worldwide. People born in this era were less exposed to traditional religious teaching due to changing social-cultural values; hence they indulge in spirituality to balance their lifestyle to optimize the basic value of life. Emmons mentions that “SI is a blend of internal & external structure: spirituality being an internal structure and intelligence as an external structure to create a new structure which evolves the person with remarkable capacities to practically use their spirituality on their everyday basis.”

Mol Biol Rep 2022; 49:7541-7556.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diagnostic and prognostic significance of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) associated biomarkers are evaluated in a cohort of NMIBC (non-muscle invasive bladder cancer) and MIBC (muscle invasive bladder cancer) patients. METHODS AND RESULTS Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and immunohistochemical (IHC) staining were carried out in 100 tumor specimens (59 NMIBC and 41 MIBC). The expressions of the epithelial marker, mesenchymal markers and EMT-activating transcription factors (EMT-ATFs) were determined at transcriptome and protein level followed by their statistical associations with clinicohistopathological variables of the patients. Transcriptomic expression analysis showed statistical relevance of tumor stage with increased Twist and Zeb-1; tumor type with reduced E-cadherin and increased Snail; and smoking/tobacco chewing status (S/TC) of patients with increased N-cadherin and Snail in NMIBC patients. Tumor grade with reduced message E-cadherin, gain of N-cadherin, Snail, Twist and Zeb-1; patients' age with reduced E-cadherin and Twist gain; and tumor type with increased message N-cadherin exhibited associations in MIBC patients. Protein expression analysis identified statistical relevance of tumor grade with nuclear gain of Snail and Twist; and nuclear gain of Slug with S/TC status of NMIBC patients. Novel gain of membranous Vimentin deduced association with patients' age in MIBC patients. Survival analysis identified novel Vimentin as the positive predictor of short progression free survival (PFS) and short overall survival (OS) in MIBC patients. Study established altered EMT profile as the independent negative predictor of short recurrence free survival (RFS) in NMIBC patients and positive predictor of short PFS and OS in MIBC patients. CONCLUSIONS EMT associated biomarkers could provide diagnostic and prognostic risk stratification and hence could be of importance in the clinical management of bladder cancer patients.

Polarization of Λ and Λ[over ¯] Hyperons along the Beam Direction in Pb-Pb Collisions at sqrt[s]_{NN}=5.02 TeV. PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 2022; 128:172005.

Abstract
The polarization of the Λ and Λ[over ¯] hyperons along the beam (z) direction, P_{z}, has been measured in Pb-Pb collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=5.02 TeV recorded with ALICE at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The main contribution to P_{z} comes from elliptic flow-induced vorticity and can be characterized by the second Fourier sine coefficient P_{z,s2}=⟨P_{z}sin(2φ-2Ψ_{2})⟩, where φ is the hyperon azimuthal emission angle and Ψ_{2} is the elliptic flow plane angle. We report the measurement of P_{z,s2} for different collision centralities and in the 30%-50% centrality interval as a function of the hyperon transverse momentum and rapidity. The P_{z,s2} is positive similarly as measured by the STAR Collaboration in Au-Au collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=200 GeV, with somewhat smaller amplitude in the semicentral collisions. This is the first experimental evidence of a nonzero hyperon P_{z} in Pb-Pb collisions at the LHC. The comparison of the measured P_{z,s2} with the hydrodynamic model calculations shows sensitivity to the competing contributions from thermal and the recently found shear-induced vorticity, as well as to whether the polarization is acquired at the quark-gluon plasma or the hadronic phase.

Abstract
Purpose Solid organ transplant recipients (SOTR) are at high-risk for poor health outcomes following COVID-19. Several studies have evaluated the antibody response to the vaccine amongst SOTR, yet there is a need to better understand peri-vaccination reactogenicity and patient behavior in SOTR. Our study reports the side effects, safety and the patient perceptions of the Pfizer vaccine amongst our center's SOTR. Methods In this single-center study, SOTR (heart, kidney, liver, lung, combined) who received the Pfizer (BNT162b2) vaccine in February-March 2021 completed an online survey about their side effects (SE) after the first and second dose of the vaccine, co-morbidities, masking behaviors, breakthrough infection, and perceptions regarding sense of protection and safety after vaccination. Descriptive and logistical regression analyses were performed. Results The survey was sent to 550 SOTR, of which 210 SOTR completed it thus far. Median age is 62 years, 154 (72%) are males and 61 (28 %) are females. 81 (39%) experienced SE after both doses. After dose one, 53% patients experienced a SE, the most common being injection site pain (79%). After dose two, 53% patients experienced a SE, including injection site pain (61%) followed by systemic SE (39%). No patient hospitalization after either dose was reported. Within a 6-month period post vaccination, only 1 patient tested positive for COVID-19 after the first dose. Increased age reduced the risk for SE for both first and second doses (0.95 (0.92-0.97, p<0.001 and 0.96 (0.94-0.99), p<0.002). SOTR without diabetes had a significant increase in injection site pain (1.92 (1.05-3.49),p=0.033). For masking behaviors, 83% plan to continue masking in healthcare settings while 10% will no longer mask in any setting. Regarding sense of worry of receiving the vaccine, 66% did not feel worried while 10% felt very worried. After vaccination, 53% felt very protected while 15% did not feel protected at all. Conclusion In SOTR who received the Pfizer vaccine, 39% of patients reported side effects after both doses. Injection site pain was most common after first dose and systemic side effects were more after the second dose. The study reinforces the safety profile of the vaccine and SOTR with reactogenicity similar to other studies. Even after vaccination, majority of SOTR plan to wear masks in various settings.

[PMID: 35351130 PMCID: PMC8960666 DOI: 10.1186/s12909-022-03268-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2021] [Accepted: 03/11/2022] [Indexed: 05/30/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND COVID-19 pandemic has affected all dimensions of day to day life across the world and medical education was no exception. With this study, we aimed to understand the effect of nationwide restrictions on medical education in Qatar, the models of education adopted during this period and perceptions of participants to the same. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional study utilizing an online questionnaire distributed via convenience sampling between April-October 2020. Study participants were faculty and trainees in governmental undergraduate and postgraduate medical education institutes. Two sets of questionnaires were designed for each group. They were asked a series of questions to assess pre- and post-COVID pandemic educational practices, their preferred teaching methods, and their familiarity with electronic teaching platforms. Faculty respondents were asked about their perceived barriers to delivery of medical education during the pandemic and their agreement on a 5-point Likert scale on specific elements. Trainees were asked a series of multiple-choice questions to characterize their pre- and post-COVID pandemic educational experiences. Both groups were asked open-ended questions to provide qualitative insights into their answers. Data were analysed using STATA software version 12.0. RESULTS Majority of trainees (58.5%) responded that the pandemic has adversely affected medical education at both the undergraduate and postgraduate levels. Trainees (58.5%) and faculty (35.7%) reported an increased reliance on e-learning. Trainees preferred face-to-face education, while faculty preferred a combination of models of education delivery (33.5% versus 37.1%, p = 0.38). Although 52.5% of the faculty had no previous experience of delivering education through e-learning modalities, 58.9% however felt confident in using e-learning software. CONCLUSIONS Faculty and trainees agree that the COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the provision of medical education and training in Qatar, with an increased dependence on e-learning. As trainee's prefer face-to-face models of education, we may have to consider restructuring of medical curricula in order to ensure that optimum learning is achieved via e-learning, while at the same time enhancing our use, knowledge and understanding of the e -learning methods. Further research is warranted to assess if these changes have influenced objective educational outcomes like graduation rates or board scores.

Abstract
Background: Studies showed olfactory disturbances in COVID patients. This has attracted focus of clinicians as an easy clinical screening tool in suspected population. Material and methods: 70 mild and moderate category COVID-19 RT-PCR positive patients, more than 10 years of age were tested on day of admission for olfaction with serial dilution of n-butanol and asked to grade severity of their olfactory dysfunction according to visual analogue score from 1-10. Results: Fatigue 42 (93.33%), sore throat 37 (82.22%), fever 36 (80%) and dyspnea 23 (51.11%) were the most common symptoms in moderate patients. Diabetes, hypertension and allergy were the three prominent risk factors. At time of admission, n-butanol diagnosed 20 patients having olfactory dysfunction compared to 11 by VAS. Patients tend to grade their dysfunction higher on VAS whereas the n-butanol test classified their olfactory dysfunction lower. Viral load and high CRP were not found to be significantly related with olfactory dysfunction. d-Dimer and LDH levels were found statistically associated with higher grading of olfactory dysfunction detected by n-butanol. Conclusion: The majority of cases developed hyposmia before they were admitted to hospital even before they realized that they were having hyposmia as revealed by n-butanol testing. We should go for objective tests of olfaction.

Measurement of the Groomed Jet Radius and Momentum Splitting Fraction in pp and Pb-Pb Collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=5.02 TeV. PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 2022; 128:102001.

Abstract
This article presents groomed jet substructure measurements in pp and Pb-Pb collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=5.02 TeV with the ALICE detector. The soft drop grooming algorithm provides access to the hard parton splittings inside a jet by removing soft wide-angle radiation. We report the groomed jet momentum splitting fraction, z_{g}, and the (scaled) groomed jet radius, θ_{g}. Charged-particle jets are reconstructed at midrapidity using the anti-k_{T} algorithm with resolution parameters R=0.2 and R=0.4. In heavy-ion collisions, the large underlying event poses a challenge for the reconstruction of groomed jet observables, since fluctuations in the background can cause groomed parton splittings to be misidentified. By using strong grooming conditions to reduce this background, we report these observables fully corrected for detector effects and background fluctuations for the first time. A narrowing of the θ_{g} distribution in Pb-Pb collisions compared to pp collisions is seen, which provides direct evidence of the modification of the angular structure of jets in the quark-gluon plasma. No significant modification of the z_{g} distribution in Pb-Pb collisions compared to pp collisions is observed. These results are compared with a variety of theoretical models of jet quenching, and provide constraints on jet energy-loss mechanisms and coherence effects in the quark-gluon plasma.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Testicular torsion is a condition requiring immediate attention and the golden time period for its management is 6 hours at which rate of salvageability of the testes is 90 percent (NICE). This decreases considerably with passing time. Imaging has minimal value.
Method
The electronic data of 36 patients from June 2020 to May 2021 were reviewed and analysed. Majority of patients were between the age of 11–20 i.e., 21. We analysed the mode of admission of these patients, the time between the A&E triage and surgical clerking and A&E triage and induction of anaesthesia.
Results
Majority (70 percent) patients were admitted through Emergency A&E. The time between the A&E triage and surgical clerking was less than 30 minutes for 10 patients while 11 patients had no proper documentation of time. The time between the A&E triage and the induction of anaesthesia was less than 6 hours in 23 patients, and more than 6 hours for 7 of them. 14 underwent Scrotal Exploration and Bilateral orchidopexy and 13 orchidectomies. Out of 13 orchidectomies, 6 had crossed the golden time period at the time of induction. Out of 10 patients booked for USS testis, 8 underwent Orchidectomy and 6 had crossed the golden hour (6 Hours).
Conclusions
Early presentation, diagnosis and exploration of testicular torsion improves the salvable rate of testes. 6 patients who underwent USS testis passed the golden timeframe which shows that there is a scope for faster and appropriate management of testicular torsion.

Abstract
The study was designed to evaluate the effect of physiological status and parity on metabolic profile in crossbred Rambouillet ewes of the Himalayan region. The study was conducted on 20 ewes divided into two groups, primiparous (PP) and multiparous (MP), with 10 ewes in each group. Blood samples were collected on 4- and 1-week pre-lambing and 1- and 4-week post-lambing to measure metabolic parameters and minerals. The glucose (p < 0.01), total plasma protein (TPP) (p < 0.05), albumin (p < 0.05), blood urea nitrogen (BUN) (p < 0.05), cholesterol (p < 0.05), triglyceride (p < 0.01), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) (p < 0.05), calcium (Ca) (p < 0.01), phosphorus (Pi) (p < 0.05), magnesium (Mg) (p < 0.01), copper (Cu) (p < 0.05), and zinc (Zn) (p < 0.01) levels revealed significant change along the time with the concentration decreasing from 3-week pre-lambing to immediate post-lambing; thereafter, levels increased steadily. Significant increase (p < 0.01) was observed in non-esterified fatty acid (NEFA), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT), iron (Fe) (p < 0.05), and bilirubin (p < 0.05) concentrations along the sampling time. No group difference was observed in any of the parameters; however, parity and time interaction was observed in glucose, NEFA, GGT, Ca, and Pi. While NEFA levels were significantly high in pre-lambing in PP ewes compared to MP ewes, the post-lambing levels were significantly high in MP ewes. Pre-lambing levels of GGT were at par between the two groups; however, post-lambing levels were significantly high in MP ewes. Glucose, Ca, and Pi were low during pre-lambing in PP ewes and post-lambing in MP ewes. The result showed that ewes show a significant change in metabolic profile and trace minerals during late gestation and immediate postpartum; however, these changes were more pronounced during late gestation in primiparous and post-lambing in multiparous.

Measurement of Prompt D^{0}, Λ_{c}^{+}, and Σ_{c}^{0,++}(2455) Production in Proton-Proton Collisions at sqrt[s]=13 TeV. PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 2022; 128:012001. [PMID: 35061479 DOI: 10.1103/physrevlett.128.012001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/25/2021] [Revised: 11/09/2021] [Accepted: 11/24/2021] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
The p_{T}-differential production cross sections of prompt D^{0}, Λ_{c}^{+}, and Σ_{c}^{0,++}(2455) charmed hadrons are measured at midrapidity (|y|<0.5) in pp collisions at sqrt[s]=13 TeV. This is the first measurement of Σ_{c}^{0,++} production in hadronic collisions. Assuming the same production yield for the three Σ_{c}^{0,+,++} isospin states, the baryon-to-meson cross section ratios Σ_{c}^{0,+,++}/D^{0} and Λ_{c}^{+}/D^{0} are calculated in the transverse momentum (p_{T}) intervals 2<p_{T}<12 and 1<p_{T}<24 GeV/c. Values significantly larger than in e^{+}e^{-} collisions are observed, indicating for the first time that baryon enhancement in hadronic collisions also extends to the Σ_{c}. The feed-down contribution to Λ_{c}^{+} production from Σ_{c}^{0,+,++} is also reported and is found to be larger than in e^{+}e^{-} collisions. The data are compared with predictions from event generators and other phenomenological models, providing a sensitive test of the different charm-hadronization mechanisms implemented in the models.

Abstract
Carnitine Palmitoyltransferase deficiency type II (CPT II) is a rare metabolic disorder of fatty acid oxidation with an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance. The outcome is usually severe with most of the patients typically passing away in the newborn period. In this report, we share our experience in managing a case of CPT II in a one-day-old term female baby who was delivered at Hospital Sultan Abdul Halim.

Abstract
The p_{T}-differential cross sections of prompt charm-strange baryons Ξ_{c}^{0} and Ξ_{c}^{+} were measured at midrapidity (|y|<0.5) in proton-proton (pp) collisions at a center-of-mass energy sqrt[s]=13 TeV with the ALICE detector at the LHC. The Ξ_{c}^{0} baryon was reconstructed via both the semileptonic decay (Ξ^{-}e^{+}ν_{e}) and the hadronic decay (Ξ^{-}π^{+}) channels. The Ξ_{c}^{+} baryon was reconstructed via the hadronic decay (Ξ^{-}π^{+}π^{+}) channel. The branching-fraction ratio BR(Ξ_{c}^{0}→Ξ^{-}e^{+}ν_{e})/BR(Ξ_{c}^{0}→Ξ^{-}π^{+})=1.38±0.14(stat)±0.22(syst) was measured with a total uncertainty reduced by a factor of about 3 with respect to the current world average reported by the Particle Data Group. The transverse momentum (p_{T}) dependence of the Ξ_{c}^{0}- and Ξ_{c}^{+}-baryon production relative to the D^{0} meson and to the Σ_{c}^{0,+,++}- and Λ_{c}^{+}-baryon production are reported. The baryon-to-meson ratio increases toward low p_{T} up to a value of approximately 0.3. The measurements are compared with various models that take different hadronization mechanisms into consideration. The results provide stringent constraints to these theoretical calculations and additional evidence that different processes are involved in charm hadronization in electron-positron (e^{+}e^{-}) and hadronic collisions.

Predicting Quadruple Semitendinosus Graft Size for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction by Patient Anthropometric Variables: A Cohort Study of 280 Cases. Malays Orthop J 2021; 15:71-77. [PMID: 34966498 PMCID: PMC8667253 DOI: 10.5704/moj.2111.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2020] [Accepted: 05/10/2021] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction: Pre-operative identification of patients with inadequate hamstring graft for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction is still a subject of interest. The purpose of this study is to correlate dimension of a harvested dimensions graft with patient physical anthropometric variables. Materials and methods: This cohort study included 280 patients (male = 226, female = 54) scheduled for primary anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. Interrelationships between quadruple semitendinosus (ST) graft and anthropometric parameters (age, sex, height, weight, and BMI) were assessed using Pearson Correlation test and regression analysis. Difference among gender was analysed using Mann Whitney and t test. The observed graft diameter was also compared with the literature using Bland – Altman plot. Results: Mean age of cohort was 29 years (range, 17-50 years), mean height was 1.69m (range, 1.6-1.9m), mean weight was 75 kg (range, 50-116kg) and mean BMI was 26kg/m2 (range 16.65-40.40kg/m2). Mean quadruple length of harvested ST graft was 7cm (7.1±0.6 cm, range, 5.6-8.8cm) and mean diameter was 8mm (8.2±0.8mm, range, 6.5-10mm). Only height and weight were significantly correlated with graft length and diameter in both sex (p value <0.05). Female, compared to male, had significantly smaller (p<0.0001) and thinner graft (p<0.0001). There was a strong agreement between the literature and our observed graft diameter, but with an overestimated graft diameter in 18.5% of the cases. Conclusion: Among anthropometric parameter, only height and weight had moderate positive correlation with graft diameter. Males had longer and wider ST graft in contrast to age-matched female group.

Abstract
The prompt production of the charm baryon Λ_{c}^{+} and the Λ_{c}^{+}/D^{0} production ratios were measured at midrapidity with the ALICE detector in pp and p-Pb collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=5.02 TeV. These new measurements show a clear decrease of the Λ_{c}^{+}/D^{0} ratio with increasing transverse momentum (p_{T}) in both collision systems in the range 2<p_{T}<12 GeV/c, exhibiting similarities with the light-flavor baryon-to-meson ratios p/π and Λ/K_{S}^{0}. At low p_{T}, predictions that include additional color-reconnection mechanisms beyond the leading-color approximation, assume the existence of additional higher-mass charm-baryon states, or include hadronization via coalescence can describe the data, while predictions driven by charm-quark fragmentation processes measured in e^{+}e^{-} and e^{-}p collisions significantly underestimate the data. The results presented in this Letter provide significant evidence that the established assumption of universality (colliding-system independence) of parton-to-hadron fragmentation is not sufficient to describe charm-baryon production in hadronic collisions at LHC energies.

Abstract
The present study was conducted to assess the strain aptness, phycoremediation potential and lipid yield in microalgae Chloroccocum humicola and Oscillatoria sp. Results revealed that microalgae treated with different concentration of wastewater (25%, 50%, 75% and 100%) recovered nutrients (Nitrogen: 50.55-85.90%, Phosphorus: 69.98-93.72%) and removed heavy metals (24.17-88.10%) from wastewater. Microalgae C. humicola showed significant reduction in physico-chemical parameters of wastewater at 25% and 50% respectively with considerable increase in lipid production (1.61 folds) at 50% wastewater concentration. In order to counterbalance the wastewater induced toxicity, both microalgae exhibited stimulated antioxidants viz., proline (1.26-4.04 folds), ascorbic acid (1.01-9.21 folds), cysteine (1.44-4.92 folds), catalase (0.99-3.63 folds), superoxide dismutase (1.15-1.43 folds) and glutathione reductase (1.43-6.67 folds) at different wastewater concentrations. Further, Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy spectral elucidation of Chloroccocum humicola at 50% reflected high lipid peak in the regions 3000-2800 cm-1 as compared to Oscillatoria sp. Thus, growth characteristics, biochemical responses and lipid yield presented the suitability of the Chloroccocum humicola to be used in phycoremedation, resource recovery as well as lipid production, which may be further utilized as potent feedstock for third generation energy demand.

Abstract
Dear Editor, Secukinumab, a monoclonal antibody against interleukin (IL)-17A, is used to treat psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. The effect of this treatment on COVID-19 vaccination is not well characterized. While IL-17 deficiency states are associated with mucocutaneous infection with Candida albicans, there is no apparent increased risk of viral infection, and redundancy between IL-17A and IL-17F limits the impact of IL-17A deficiency on immune responsiveness.

Abstract
This paper analyzes the impact of a nationwide lockdown enforced during March-to-May 2020 to prevent the widespread transmission of COVID-19 on the local anthropogenic noise level variation in Indian cities. To this end, data obtained from the National Ambient Noise Monitoring Network (NANMN) was used to analyze the long-term daily evolution of average day- and night-time levels at selected locations across seven major cities. The results indicate that when the strict lockdown phase 1 was declared, all industrial (I), commercial (C), and residential (R) zones experienced either a gradual or sudden decrease in noise levels while the silence (S) zone was unaffected. Depending on the zone, the weekly trend graphs reached a minimum either during phase 1 or conditionally relaxed phase 2. Across I, C, and R zones, the average maximum day- and night-time reduction with respect to the pre-lockdown period ranged from 4 to 13.8 dB(A) and 4 to 14.1 dB(A), respectively. As anticipated, with a gradual ease in restrictions from phase 2 onwards, the levels climbed back almost linearly, and during unlocks, the daily variation resembled the pre-lockdown trend. Furthermore, the responses to an online COVID-19 noise perception survey supported the NANMN results and suggested that the lockdown was quieter.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) increases vulnerability to externalising disorders such as substance misuse. The study aims to determine the prevalence of ACEs and its association with substance misuse. METHODS Data from the Consortium on Vulnerability to Externalising Disorders and Addictions (cVEDA) in India was used (n = 9010). ACEs were evaluated using the World Health Organisation (WHO) Adverse Childhood Experiences International Questionnaire whilst substance misuse was assessed using the WHO Alcohol, Smoking and Substance Involvement Screening Test. A random-effects, two-stage individual patient data meta-analysis explained the associations between ACEs and substance misuse with adjustments for confounders such as sex and family structure. RESULTS 1 in 2 participants reported child maltreatment ACEs and family level ACEs. Except for sexual abuse, males report more of every individual childhood adversity and are more likely to report misusing substances compared with females (87.3% vs. 12.7%). In adolescents, family level ACEs (adj OR 4.2, 95% CI 1.5-11.7) and collective level ACEs (adj OR 6.6, 95% CI 1.4-31.1) show associations with substance misuse whilst in young adults, child level ACEs such as maltreatment show similar strong associations (adj OR 2.0, 95% CI 1.1-3.5). CONCLUSION ACEs such as abuse and domestic violence are strongly associated with substance misuse, most commonly tobacco, in adolescent and young adult males in India. The results suggest enhancing current ACE resilience programmes and 'trauma-informed' approaches to tackling longer-term impact of ACEs in India.

Abstract
This Letter presents the first experimental evidence of the attractive strong interaction between a proton and a ϕ meson. The result is obtained from two-particle correlations of combined p-ϕ⊕ p[over ¯]-ϕ pairs measured in high-multiplicity pp collisions at sqrt[s]=13 TeV by the ALICE Collaboration. The spin-averaged scattering length and effective range of the p-ϕ interaction are extracted from the fully corrected correlation function employing the Lednický-Lyuboshits approach. In particular, the imaginary part of the scattering length vanishes within uncertainties, indicating that inelastic processes do not play a prominent role for the p-ϕ interaction. These data demonstrate that the interaction is dominated by elastic p-ϕ scattering. Furthermore, an analysis employing phenomenological Gaussian- and Yukawa-type potentials is conducted. Under the assumption of the latter, the N-ϕ coupling constant is found to be g_{N-ϕ}=0.14±0.03(stat)±0.02(syst). This work provides valuable experimental input to accomplish a self-consistent description of the N-ϕ interaction, which is particularly relevant for the more fundamental studies on partial restoration of chiral symmetry in nuclear medium.

Abstract
Abstract
Aim
The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in significant pressures on the NHS. Healthcare workers (HCWs) are at increased risk of infection. Personal protective equipment (PPE) lowers the risk of infection transmission. However, during the early phases of the pandemic, the information available regarding COVD-19 and the use of PPE has been unclear, with constantly changing guidelines. The aim of this study was to determine the knowledge and confidence about PPE usage among HCWs, in addition to measuring their anxiety levels during the COVID pandemic.
Method
A validated questionnaire was distributed among HCWs in as many UK hospitals as possible, during April 2020. The questionnaire consisted of 13 questions regarding demographics, knowledge on PPE guidance, HCW training and confidence levels in PPE usage and finally anxiety levels measured using the GAD-7 psychometric tool.
Results
1055 responses were received. Nurses (49%), Healthcare Assistants (HCA - 20%), Doctors (17%), Physios (8%) and other (6%). 99% of respondents indicated they were familiar with PPE guidance, but only 1.6% answered all 3 questions on PPE guidance accurately. 86.4% of respondents received mask-fitting checks. 79.7% received donning-doffing training. Despite this, only 46.8% were confident on their familiarity with PPE. 32.5% felt that their hospital communication regarding PPE policy during COVID-19 pandemic was poor or very poor. 30% HCWs experienced severe anxiety.
Conclusions
National guidance and local training on PPE usage during the COVID-19 pandemic has been unsatisfactory, leading to higher anxiety among HCWs. Improved information delivery and training are essential in preparation for the second wave and future pandemics.

Abstract
Diagnosis of osteoarticular tuberculosis (OATB) exhibits serious challenges owing to paucibacillary nature of specimens and localization of disease at sites that are difficult to access. We recently developed indirect immuno-PCR (I-PCR) and real-time I-PCR (RT-I-PCR) assays for the detection of mycobacterial antigen 85 complex (Ag85) in OATB patients. Detection limits for the purified Ag85 protein were found to be 1 and 41 fg ml-1 by I-PCR and RT-I-PCR, respectively, which were at least 105 -fold lower than respective ELISA. While spiking synovial fluids of non-TB control subjects with the purified Ag85 protein, LODs of 100 and 120 fg ml-1 were obtained by I-PCR and RT-I-PCR, respectively, thus demonstrating the sample matrix effect. Sensitivities of 87·5 and 70·5% were observed in bodily fluids of confirmed (n = 8) and clinically suspected (n = 51) OATB cases, respectively, by I-PCR, with a specificity of 93·9% (n = 33). Markedly, the sensitivities obtained by I-PCR/RT-I-PCR were significantly higher (P < 0·05-0·01) than ELISA and GeneXpert assay (n = 30). However, no substantial difference in sensitivity was observed between the I-PCR and RT-I-PCR assays. After further improving the accuracy of I-PCR, this test may lead to development of an attractive diagnostic kit.

Abstract
Two hundred [200] mothers consecutively attending Al-Fateh Paediatric Hospital, Benghazi in 1992 were interviewed. The majority of women were under 30 years of age, had primary or no education, were housewives, had no experience of pregnancy wastage or child loss, used no contraception, had one to three living children, had information about breast-feeding from the mother-in-law, a relative or a neighbour, considered breast-feeding a natural way, nutritionally superior and hygienic, and practised mixed feeding. The reasons for introducing artificial feeding were maternal in 49.7% of cases, filial [related to the baby] in 36.5% and due to social pressure in 13.8%. Measures for successful breast-feeding are emphasized

Abstract
Phosphaturic mesenchymal tumors (PMTs) can present with vague symptoms of diffuse bone pain with pathologic fractures that often lead to a delayed diagnosis. We present a 60-year-old patient with a PMT that was persistently hypophosphatemic after resection, who was then successfully treated with cryoablation of the tumor. Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare cause of hypophosphatemia characterized by vague symptoms of gradual muscle weakness and diffuse bone pain with pathologic fractures that often lead to a delayed diagnosis. This condition is usually caused by benign phosphaturic mesenchymal tumors (PMTs). Here, we present a case of persistent PMT after surgical resection treated with image-guided ablation. We present the patient's clinical examinations and laboratory findings (phosphorus, 1,25 (OH)2D, FGF-23, Intact PTH). Representative histologic images of a PMT are also presented. A 61-year-old male was evaluated for persistent hypophosphatemia and presumed osteomalacia. Six years earlier, he underwent surgical excision of a left ischial mass after presenting with TIO. The pathology was consistent with a PMT; however, hypophosphatemia persisted suggesting incomplete resection. He was treated with calcitriol and phosphate salts. A PET Ga68 dotatate scan of the patient revealed an avid left ischial mixed lytic and sclerotic lesions with marked amount of radiotracer uptake, suggesting persistent tumor. The patient was resistant to re-excision of the tumor due to the extended recovery period from his prior surgery and was treated instead with cryoablation of the tumor. His biochemical findings of hypophosphatemia and elevated FGF23 resolved after the ablation and have remained normal for 5 months after surgery. In patients with TIO, wide surgical excision is the treatment of choice. When this is not possible, image-guided ablation is an alternative therapeutic option.

Abstract
Ovine cysteine-rich secretory protein 1 (CRISP-1) is an acidic glycoprotein of epididymal origin under CRISP, antigen 5, pathogenesis-related protein 1 (CAP) super-family. The aim of the present study was the optimization of bacterial production and partial characterization of putative mature ovine CRISP-1 protein. The cDNA corresponding to T23 - C242 peptide fragment of ovine CRISP-1 protein was cloned into THE pET32b(+) expression vector using E. coli DH5α. Protein expression was carried out in E. coli BL21(DE3) by inducition with 1 mM IPTG at 37°C for 4 h. The recombinant protein was expressed as inclusion bodies and purified by Ni-NTA affinity chromatography using a pH gradient. Further purification of the protein was carried out by gel extraction following zinc sulfate negative staining. SDS-PAGE analysis of the purified recombinant CRISP-1 protein revealed a 43.8 kDa band. Bioactivity of the purified CRISP-1 protein was examined on sperm motility and capacitation. The recombinant ovine CRISP-1 protein at 5 µg/ml caused significant inhibition of sperm motility, and the activity was lost following heating the protein at 100°C for 5 min. The protein also demonstrated decapacitation activity, and at a concentration of 2 µg/ml, it caused a significant (P < 0.05) reduction in sperm capacitation. In conclusion, the thioredoxin-tagged ovine CRISP-1 protein was successfully produced in E. coli and purified in the soluble form by a combination of Ni-NTA affinity chromatography, gel purification, and dialysis. The recombinant protein exhibited both motility-inhibiting and decapacitating activities. Further study is needed to elucidate the mechanism of action and evaluate it's possible use in semen preservation.Abbreviations: CRISP-1: Cysteine-rich secretory protein-1; PCR: polymerase chain reaction; IPTG: isopropyl-β-D-thiogalactopyranoside; LB: Luria Bertani; SDS-PAGE: sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis; EDTA: ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid; Ni-NTA: Nickel nitrilotriacetic acid.

Abstract
The event-by-event correlations between three flow amplitudes are measured for the first time in Pb-Pb collisions, using higher-order symmetric cumulants. We find that different three-harmonic correlations develop during the collective evolution of the medium when compared to correlations that exist in the initial state. These new results cannot be interpreted in terms of previous lower-order flow measurements since contributions from two-harmonic correlations are explicitly removed in the new observables. A comparison to Monte Carlo simulations provides new and independent constraints for the initial conditions and system properties of nuclear matter created in heavy-ion collisions.

Abstract
Introduction
Our objective was to document the incidence of COVID-19 in vaccinated health care professionals and related personnel.
Method
We conducted an online survey to ascertain the incidence of COVID-19 symptoms, reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) positivity, effect on normal activity, need for anti-COVID-19 medication, hospitalization, and death among individuals who had completed both doses of COVID vaccination at least 2 weeks earlier.
Results
A total of 351 unique valid responses were received. Among the 340 people who had been vaccinated in India, 5% (17/340) had COVID-19 symptoms, 4.7% (16) became COVID-19 RT-PCR positive, 12 (3.5%) had sickness preventing normal daily activity, 2.65% (9) required anti-COVID-19 medication, and 1.18% (4) required hospitalization. Among family members living with the survey responders, the corresponding incidence was even lower. There was one death in this group.
Discussion
Being health care professionals, the responders would be at higher risk of daily exposure to COVID-19. Even in this high risk group, the vaccine efficacy is good. Vulture journalists should stop spreading fake news and misinformation that makes people hesitate taking the vaccine or be afflicted analysis paralysis. Every person who chooses to remain unvaccinated increases the risk for our entire community. We also need to follow universal precautions (wearing mask, physical distancing, handwashing) diligently without letting down our guard.

Abstract
Drug rash with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS syndrome) is a severe, potentially life-threatening drug-induced hypersensitivity reaction characterized by cutaneous eruptions, fever, diffuse lymphadenopathy, along with eosinophilia and elevated liver enzymes. The severity and potential organ damage associated with DRESS mandates withdrawing the offending drug and provide a suitable replacement. We report a 55-year-old man who developed prolonged fever, generalized maculopapular rash and facial edema after 3 weeks of starting imatinib for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). A diagnosis of DRESS was confirmed by eosinophilia and skin biopsy findings, along with a consistent RegiSCAR score. Imatinib was stopped and he was initiated on low-dose steroids, which led to complete resolution of rash and eosinophilia. A rechallenge with imatinib was positive, and he was switched to dasatinib for further therapy, following which he attained an optimal molecular response. DRESS following imatinib has only been reported in eight patients so far. In this report we summarize the current evidence for managing DRESS and its impact on the treatment of CML.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
Is insulin resistance ( IR) a confounding variable in infertile women, other than those those having polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS)
Summary answer
IR was identified in 20.5% of infertile women. The presence of IR did not affect response to ovulation induction but reduced chances of conception
What is known already
Obesity is strongly correlated with insulin resistance. Obesity also has an adverse effect on fertility. In 2008 Steeg et al reported 5% reduction in chances of spontaneous conception with each unit increase in body mass index (BMI). Tetsurou Sakumoto et al (2010) reported hyperinsulinemia to affect granulose cells in small follicles inducing early response to luteinising hormone and anovulation. Adverse effect on endometrial function and implantation was also postulated. Insulin resistance has been studied in cases of PCOS but has not been studied in infertile women not fulfilling criteria for diagnosis of PCOS . So the present study was planned
Study design, size, duration
A prospective cohort study was conducted in infertility unit, King George Medical University, Lucknow, India over a period of one year from August 2018 to July 2019. Total 102 women with unexplained infertility were enrolled. Ethical clearance was obtained from institutional ethical committee
Participants/materials, setting, methods
Women with PCOS; diminished ovarian reserve documented by antral follicle count <7 and anti Mullerian hormone < 1.1ng/ml; bilateral tubal block; abnormal semen analysis; untreated hypothyroidism, hyperprolactinaemia; known diabetes were excluded. All women underwent ovulation induction with clomiphene citrate followed by single intrauterine insemination. Homeostasis model assessment insulin resistance index (HOMA IR) was calculated
HOMA-IR = Fasting S. Glucose (mg/dl) x Fasting insulin (µlU) / 405.
Value ≥ 2 denoted insulin resistance
Main results and the role of chance
: IR was identified in 21/102 (20.5%) cases. Fasting insulin levels were in the range of 5 – 9.9 mIU/ml in 53/102 women; <5mIU/ml in 29 and >10mIU/ml in 20. Fasting insulin > 9.45mIU/ml was found to have 90.5% sensitivity and 96.3% specificity in predicting insulin resistance. None of the cases had abnormal fasting and post prandial plasma glucose levels. IR was seen to be significantly correlated with BMI > 25kg/m2 (p = 0.0018) and waist hip ratio of > 0.85 (p = 0.0024).All women had follicular development and follicle rupture irrespective of presence of IR. Women with IR were more likely to have monofollicular development (17/21 IR cases). Correlation of endometrial thickness with IR was not seen. Mean endometrial thickness was 8.9mm. There were 6 pregnancies among the 102 women studied. None of the women with IR conceived.
So IR was found to be affecting one fifth of women with unexplained infertility. Failure of any woman with IR to conceive was significant but the finding needs to be further studied.
Limitations, reasons for caution
: It was a small study with only 102 cases and the women were followed for only one cycle of ovulation induction and intrauterine insemination so results need to be validated in a larger study with a longer follow up.
Wider implications of the findings: If further larger studies corroborate the role of IR in women with unexplained infertility it could elucidate the possibility of using insulin sensitisers in management of such cases. IR may emerge as an important gamechanger in management of unexplained infertility.
