Background: Seller and suprasellar space occupying lesions are frequently encountered intracranial lesions now-a-days. Surgery through transsphenoidal route is the most preferable approach which is frequently performed for excision of these space occupying lesions. The lesions are located in a very critical area because they are surrounded by the hypothalamus, pituitary gland and cavernous sinus which are responsible to maintain various hormonal functions as well as regulation of plasma osmolality and plasma electrolytes. So, during and after operation various types of osmolality and electrolytes related complications are often encountered. Among them serum sodium imbalance is the most frequent one. Objective: Tumour size is one of the very important predisposing factors which influence the serum sodium level after surgery. For investigating the correlation between the size of sellar and suprasellar space occupying lesions with the incidence of postoperative sodium imbalance after transsphenoidal surgery of the patient having these lesions. Material and method: Thirty patients with sellar and suprasellar space occupying lesions meeting the inclusion criteria were enrolled. The largest diameter of the tumour was measured in the coronal or sagittal planes from pre-operative MRI’s. They underwent transsphenoidal surgery and were observed for first 7 postoperative days and serum electrolytes was measured every day. Patients in this study were considered to have serum sodium imbalance if the narrow range of 135-145 mmol/L was not maintained. Then according to the tumour size they were divided in to two groups. Then the two groups were compared and the frequency of development of post-operative sodium imbalance, their time of onset and types of imbalances were observed. Result: 60% of the patients in our study developed post operative serum sodium imbalance after transsphenoidal surgery. Among them 40% of the patients developed hypernatraemia, 13.3% of the patient developed hyponatraemia and only 6.7% patient developed combined imbalance. Hypernatraemia is more common than hyponatraemia after transsphenoidal surgery. Peak incidence of hyponatraemia occurred on 3rd post-operative day and hypernatraemia occurred at 1st postoperative day. In the large size tumour group (>30mm) 46.66% had serum sodium imbalance and imbalance was observed in 13.33% of the small size group (d”30mm) and there is significant difference of sodium imbalance between large and small size group and p-value was 0.001. r- value 0.776 indicates that the size of the tumour strongly correlates with postoperative sodium imbalance and there is significant association between size of the tumour with sodium imbalance. The study found no significant association between age, sex or types of the lesions with postoperative sodium imbalance (p=0.43). Conclusion: Post operative serum sodium imbalance after transsphenoidal surgery is a burning issue for the neurosurgeon now a day. Early prediction of these types of notorious complication is helpful for preoperative and post operative management of the patient. The size of the lesion is one of the most significant markers. As well as a strong association between size of the tumour with post operative sodium imbalance was found. This will help us in perioperative management of the patients, and reduces complication related mortality and morbidity after the transsphenoidal surgery. Bang. J Neurosurgery 2020; 10(1): 82-91

The influence of the lateral size and the content of graphene oxide (GO) flakes in specific oxygenate functional groups on the anti-biofouling properties and performance of thin-film composite membrane (TFC) was studied. Three different multidimensional GO samples were prepared with small (500–1200 nm), medium (1200–2300 nm), and large (2300–3600 nm) size distribution, and with different degrees of oxidation (GO3 > GO2 > GO1), varying the concentration of the hydrogen peroxide amount during GO synthesis. GO1 sheets’ length have a heterogeneous size distribution containing all size groups, whilst GO2 is contained in a medium-size group, and GO3 is totally contained within a small-size group. Moreover, GO oxygenate groups were controlled. GO2 and GO3 have hydroxyl and epoxy groups at the basal plane of their sheets. Meanwhile, GO1 presented only hydroxyl groups. GO sheets were incorporated into the polyamide (PA) layer of the TFC membrane during the interfacial polymerization reaction. The incorporation of GO1 produced a modified membrane with excellent bactericidal properties and anti-adhesion capacity, as well as superior desalination performance with high water flow (133% as compared with the unmodified membrane). For GO2 and GO3, despite the significant anti-biofouling effect, a detrimental impact on desalination performance was observed. The high content of large sheets in GO2 and small sheet stacking in GO3 produced an unfavorable impact on the water flow. Therefore, the synergistic effect due to the presence of large- and small-sized GO sheets and high content of OH-functional groups (GO1) made it possible to balance the performance of the membrane.

This study was carried out to establish the association between floral bud size and the corresponding microspore developmental stages for Brazilian soybean cultivars. Microspore developmental stage distributions were examined in young buds from cv Década, IAS5 and RS7. The data indicated that for a given bud-size group, the microspores of different cultivars were at different developmental stages, with cv RS7 and Década distributed at the youngest and cv IAS5 at the most advanced stages. Microspore stages distribution were also compared among the ten anthers of the same bud of the above cultivars. The ten anthers from a given bud were clearly distributed at different developmental stages. Caution should be exercised when adopting the standard anther culture practice of using the microspore stage of one anther to represent the entire bud.

The objective of this collaborative study was to evaluate the indigestible neutral detergent fiber (iNDF) and indigestible acid detergent fiber (iADF) content in feeds in six laboratories from institutions linked to the National Institute of Science and Technology in Animal Science (INCT-CA). Six feeds were evaluated: signal grass hay, sugarcane, corn silage, soybean meal, corn and citrus pulp. Estimated levels of iNDF and iADF proved to be dependent on the laboratory in which the analysis was performed. It was found that differences between laboratories ranged from 2.40 percentage points for soybean meal to 8.05 percentage points for sugarcane for iNDF analysis and from 1.79 percentage points for corn to 10.06 percentage points for hay for iADF analysis. It was observed that the individual evaluation of each material, the total random variation of the results between laboratories ranged from 88.75 to 96.77% and 88.75 to 98.40% for iNDF and iADF analysis, respectively. The iNDF and iADF levels are dependent on the interaction effect between the evaluated material and laboratory and have low reproducibility; this may be a consequence of the differences between the methods practiced by each laboratory, demonstrating lack of standardization of procedures used by the laboratories.

Thymidine-H3 of high specific activity was used to study the distribution of labeled chromatids during meiotic divisions in spermatocytes of a species of grasshopper (Orthoptera). The distribution is regularly semiconservative as has been shown previously for mitosis, i.e., all chromatids are labeled after incorporation of thymidine-H3 into DNA at premeiotic interphase. If incorporation occurs at the interphase preceding this one, the chromosomes arrive at meiotic divisions with the equivalent of one chromatid of each homologue labeled. Chromatid exchanges occur at a frequency which is very nearly that predicted on the assumption that each chiasma represents an exchange between homologous chromatids. However, the exchanges are randomly distributed among chromosomes in a size group, whereas chiasmata are not. A quantitative analysis of the frequency and pattern of exchanges indicates that most of these result from breakage and reciprocal exchange between homologous chromatids. Sister chromatid exchanges are much less frequent and may be limited to premeiotic stages.
