The Relationship

The prevalence of green turtle (Chelonia mydas) fibropapillomatosis is increasing in Hawaii, raising the possibility of long-term negative effects on the breeding population. As the etiology of this disease is unknown, our objective was to determine if any relationship exists between fibropapillomas and trematode eggs from the family Spirorchidae, whose presence in tissue sections has been noted for years. A process for tumor digestion and egg extraction was developed and a total of 61 tumors of all sizes was examined to determine the total numbers of eggs present and the species of spirorchid involved. Twelve samples of normal turtle tissue were also examined. Eggs of one to three spirorchid species (Leardius learedi Price, 1934; Haplotrema dorsopora Dailey, Fast and Balazs, 1993; and Carettacola hawaiiensis Dailey, Fast and Balazs, 1991) were recovered from all tumors and nontumored tissues digested. Five turtles were injected with spirorchid eggs and observed for 12 months. New tumors developed on two of the turtles at noninjected sites. Although attempts to induce fibropapillomas through injection were not successful, the presence of spirorchid eggs in every tumor examined raises additional questions regarding the relationship between these parasites and fibropapillomas in sea turtles.

One the factors that influence the succes of family planning is husband support. Based on BKKBN data until the end of December 2015, the quantity of PUS (Couple Age Fertile) amounted to 13,46%. This figur is lower than the achievement in 2014 which amounted to 16,51%. While for acceptor of KB injection equal to 49,93%, pill 26,36%, IUD 6,81%, implant equal to 9,63%, other method 2,1% (BKKBN, 2016). This study aims to determine the relationship of husband support with long-term family participation in BPM Sri Hastuti S.ST Surabaya            The type of this research is the observasional design of the population in this study is the family planning acceptors  which amounted to 45 people, the sample in this study is the family planning acceptors in July 2017 which amounted to 40 people. The data of this research was done in July 2017 by using questionnaire and presented in diagram.            Family planning acceptors who have husband support in the selection of long-term contraceptives is 5 people (12%) who didn’t participate some 35 people (88%).            The quantity of family planning acceptors taking long-term contraceptive methods was 19 (47%) while those who did not participated in 21 people (53%). Based on statistical test using chi square, it is found that p value 0,012 < α (0,05) and calculate value x² 6,316 > count value 3,841, in other words, Ho is rejected and Hi is accepted so it can be concluded that there is relationship of husband support with long-term family participation. This is in accordance with the theory that a wife in decision making to use contraception requires approval from the husband because the husband is seen  as the head of the family.

: Neurological diseases bring great mental and physical torture to the patients, and have long-term and sustained negative effects on families and society. The attention to neurological diseases is increasing, and the improvement of the material level is accompanied by an increase in the demand for mental level. The p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR) is a low-affinity neurotrophin receptor and involved in diverse and pleiotropic effects in the developmental and adult central nervous system (CNS). Since neurological diseases are usually accompanied by the regression of memory, the pathogenesis of p75NTR also activates and inhibits other signaling pathways, which has a serious impact on the learning and memory of patients. The results of studies shown that p75NTR is associated with LTP/LTD-induced synaptic enhancement and inhibition, suggest that p75NTR may be involved in the progression of synaptic plasticity. And its pro-apoptotic effect is associated with activation of proBDNF and inhibition of proNGF, and TrkA/p75NTR imbalance leads to pro-survival or pro-apoptotic phenomena. It can be inferred that p75NTR mediates apoptosis in the hippocampus and amygdale, which may affect learning and memory behavior. This article mainly discusses the relationship between p75NTR and learning memory and associated mechanisms, which may provide some new ideas for the treatment of neurological diseases.

AbstractAutomatic bird detection in ornithological analyses is limited by the accuracy of existing models, due to the lack of training data and the difficulties in extracting the fine-grained features required to distinguish bird species. Here we apply the domain randomization strategy to enhance the accuracy of the deep learning models in bird detection. Trained with virtual birds of sufficient variations in different environments, the model tends to focus on the fine-grained features of birds and achieves higher accuracies. Based on the 100 terabytes of 2-month continuous monitoring data of egrets, our results cover the findings using conventional manual observations, e.g., vertical stratification of egrets according to body size, and also open up opportunities of long-term bird surveys requiring intensive monitoring that is impractical using conventional methods, e.g., the weather influences on egrets, and the relationship of the migration schedules between the great egrets and little egrets.

Abstract PURPOSE To describe decreased growth velocity with long term use of BRAFV600e and MEK inhibition in a patient with anaplastic ganglioglioma. RESULTS 4-year-old patient was found to have a 6 x 4.6 x 5 cm mass in the hypothalamus. Pathology consistent with anaplastic ganglioglioma and chromosomal microarray revealed a BRAFV600e mutation. Patient started on dabrafenib and trametinib and tumor decreased 85% after 3 months. She is stable without significant toxicities 39 months on therapy, and is now 8 years old. Patient had been growing at the 25% for weight and 12% for height but is now 65% for weight and 0.5% for height. It is difficult to tease out the relationship between the tumor, the location of the tumor, and the BRAF and MEK inhibitors and their effect on growth. Discussions with the family and endocrinology are ongoing but being &lt;1% for height will lead to decrease in quality of life. CONCLUSIONS Further follow-up study is needed to determine if this is truly a long-term toxicity, or if this may just be a direct result of the location of the tumor. Would supplementation with growth hormone in this patient lead to losing control of a high grade tumor, or would it simply replace a hormone that is not produced?

A family consisting of a mother and father, heterozygous for idiopathic hyperlipemia, and their four offspring, one heterozygous and three homozygous for the disease, are described. In addition, a fifth child who is heterozygous, born of same mother but by another incompletely studied father, is presented. The genetics of the disease in this family, and also in the general population, with emphasis on diagnosis and prognosis in heterozygotes is discussed. The interrelationship of various lipid components in serum and their metabolism are briefly reviewed. The possible defective mechanisms in hyperlipemia, the techniques for deciding on the specific defect, and their application to the members of this family are reviewed. The effect of heparin, nicotinic acid, and fat-free diets in the homozygous members of the family are evaluated and their therapeutic applications are discussed. The symptomatology, possible pathologic physiology, relationship to lipid levels in serum and occurrence of abdominal crises in some of the homozygous members of this family are pointed out. The relationship of cholesterol and triglyceride levels in serum to, and the significance of, idiopathic hyperlipemia in the genesis of, atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease is elucidated.

Sea turtles are threatened to the point of extinction. The major goal of rehabilitating injured individuals is to eventually reintroduce them back into their habitat. Sea turtles are vulnerable to anthropogenic effects, and impact traumas are a common cause of death among these animals. Carapace and skull fractures are usually related to vessel collisions or propeller impacts. However, intentional traumas inflicted by humans are also considered as a potential threat. The purpose of this article is to describe the diagnosis and rehabilitation procedures of a juvenile green turtle (Chelonia mydas) after severe head trauma with brain hemorrhage. The data presented here can be used as a reference for future cases of head trauma in chelonians.
