Nephotettix virescens is the most effective vector for transmitting tungro disease to rice plants. Two different viral particles cause Tungro transmission. Disease control was often not anticipated in the field, especially when planting is asynchronous, that cause been detected lately. At the cellular level, vector interactions with viruses indicate vector proteins response to viral in the body of vector insects which involved in virus transmission in plants. This study aims to describe the relationship between the differentiation of N. virescens vector protein profiles on the types of tungro symptoms resulting from the transmission to develop techniques for early detection and control of the transmission process. The workflow of this study is screening on vector insects to obtain protein candidates thought to have a role in tungro transmission that had never been previously reported. The results of this study suggested that proteins with estimated molecular weights of 132, 73, and 49 kDa are candidates for proteins that can be used for screening purposes or virulent vector tracing as an early warning alternative to control tungro disease in endemic areas.

Introduction Ventricular septal defect (VSD) is an opening in the interventricular septum. 30-50% of patients with congenital heart disease have VSD. Objective The aim of the study was to determine the dependence of the left ventricular diastolic dimension (LVD), left ventricular systolic dimension (LVS), shortening fraction (SF), left atrium (LA), pulmonary artery truncus (TPA) on the body surface and compare their values among experimental, control and a group of healthy children. Values of maximal systolic gradient pressure (Pvsd) of VSD were compared with children from one experimental and control group. Method Children were divided into three groups: experimental (32 children with VSD that were to go to surgery), control (20 children with VSD who did not require surgery) and 40 healthy children. Measurements of LVD, LVS, SF, LA, TPA were performed in accordance to recommendations of the American Echocardiographic Association. The value of Pvsd was calculated from the maximal flow velocity (V) in VSD using the following formula: Pvsd=4xV? (mm Hg). Results For children from the experimental group, the relationship between the body surface and the variability of the LVD was explained with 56.85%, LVS with 66.15%, SF with 4.9%, TPA with 58.92%. For children from the control group, the relationship between the body surface and the variability of LVD was explained with 88.8%, LVS with 72.5%, SF with 0.42%, PA with 58.92%. For healthy children, the relationship between the body surface and the variabilitiy of the LVD was explained with 88.8%, LVS with 88.78%, SF with 5.25% and PA with 84.75%. There was a significant statistical difference between average values of Pvsd in the experimental and control group (p<0.02). Conclusion The presence of the large VSD has an influence on the enlargement of LVD, LVS, SF, TPA. The enlargement of the size of the pulmonary artery depends on the presence of VSD and there is a direct variation in the magnitude of the shunt. There is a relationship and significant dependence of the LVS and LVD on the body surface. There is no statistically significant dependence between SF and body surface.

<p>Dualists view the mind and the body as two fundamental different “things”, equally real and independent of each other. Cartesian thought, or substance dualism, maintains that the mind and body are two different substances, the non-physical and the physical, and a causal relationship is assumed to exist between them. Physicalism, on the other hand, is the idea that everything that exists is either physical or totally dependent of and determined by physical items. Hence, all mental states are fundamentally physical states. In the current study we investigated to what degree Swedish university students’ beliefs in mind-body dualism is explained by the importance they attach to personal values. A self-report inventory was used to measure their beliefs and values. Students who held stronger dualistic beliefs attach less importance to the power value (i.e., the effort to achieve social status, prestige, and control or dominance over people and resources). This finding shows that the strength in laypeople’s beliefs in dualism is partially explained by the importance they attach to personal values.</p>

<p>The prevailing understanding is that feminism, both as activism and theory, harmoniously overlaps with disability studies. This article, however, seeks to more closely scrutinize the relationship between the two fields. Through an examination of reproductive rights — a particularly divisive issue — this article argues that technocultural arrangements of the body reveal a potential disjuncture between feminism and disability. The rhetoric surrounding reproductive rights frequently focuses on choice, health, and control. Such terms function according to different valences when thought through from the vantage of disability. Moreover, it becomes difficult to understand how a generalized form of abortion can allow for the specific protection of fetuses that exhibit forms of disability. While not fatalistic about the possibility of a reciprocal arrangement between disability and feminism, this article does caution that disability must be understood on its own terms before it can form beneficial relationships with other fields.</p>

The outbreak of Covid-19 accelerated the practice of digital survival, and the "health code" launched based on the needs of epidemic prevention and control has become the representative of digital survival media, which is jointly built by science and technology enterprises and government departments. it has realized the full-state use in China, and accumulated long-term digital survival experience for the country, enterprises and individuals. At the same time, there are some media ethical problems in the use of Health Code, such as distinguishing users, leaking information, imprisoning the body and leading to the lack of subjects. In order to resolve the risk, we should re-examine the relationship between people and the media from the perspective of the subject, treat "health code" as a digital projection of personal health, and regain the service principle of digital technology. Humanize the "health code" and other digital media.

ABSTRACTThe effects of selection for low backfat thickness on tissue deposition in different body sites has been investigated in pigs. Eight castrated male and eight female pigs from each of the selection and control lines maintained at the University of Newcastle upon Tyne were used. One castrated male and one female from each line was killed at 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 105 and 120 kg live weight following ad libitum food consumption and fully dissected.There were only small effects of line on carcass composition, selected pigs having 120 g/kg more bone than controls at the mean side weight (P < 0·001) and 40 g/kg more lean (NS). At the same mean weight of subcutaneous fat, selected pigs had thinner backfat than controls (approximately 3 mm) over m. longissimus at the last rib and over the shoulder but not at the mid-rump or mid-back positions. There appears to have been a slight shift in the sites of fat deposition from above m. longissimus in the loin towards the mid-line and rump as a result of selection, even though mid-rump, C and K measurements were all included in the selection index. However, there was no difference between the lines in the weight distribution of subcutaneous fat between six regions and so these shifts must have been very localized. There was no difference between lines in the relationship between P2 fat thickness and proportion of lean in the side.The effects of selection on the sites of deposition within tissues other than subcutaneous fat were small. In particular there was no evidence that selection has caused relocation of body fat from subcutaneous to the other sites.

Abstract Varicella zoster virus (VZV) is a herpesvirus that causes chickenpox and shingles. The biological mechanisms underpinning the multi-decadal latency of VZV in the body and subsequent viral reactivation—which occurs in approximately 30% of individuals—are largely unknown. Because chickenpox and shingles are endemic worldwide, understanding the relationship between VZV transmission and reactivation is important for informing disease treatment and control. While chickenpox is a vaccine-preventable childhood disease with a rich legacy of research, shingles is not a notifiable disease in most countries. To date, population-level studies of shingles have had to rely on small-scale hospital or community-level datasets. Here, we examined chickenpox and shingles notifications from Thailand and found strong seasonal incidence in both diseases, with a 3-month lag between peak chickenpox transmission season and peak shingles reactivation. We tested and fit 14 mathematical models examining the biological driversof chickenpox and shingles over an 8-year period to estimate rates of VZV transmission, reactivation, and immunity boosting, wherein re-exposure to VZV boosts VZV-specific immunity to reinforce protection against shingles. The models suggested the seasonal cycles of chickenpox and shingles have different underlying mechanisms, with ultraviolet radiation (UV) being correlated with shingles reactivation.

Introduction: HIV still becomes health problem that threaten Indonesia and many countries around the world. When HIV enters the body, it looks for CD4 cells and begins to replicate itself. Once replicated and left the dead CD4, the new viral particles will be looking for and infecting new CD4. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of cognitive supports on CD4 level people living with HIV. Those cognitive supports consist of information, psychological, and spiritual support in order to increase the levels of CD4. Method: This was quasy experiment research with posttest group design. Population were all people living with HIV at Kota Kediri. Samples were 20 respondents who meet the criteria, divided into two groups, intervention and control. The independent variable was cognitive support, while dependent variable was CD4 level of people living with HIV. Blood samples were collected to examine CD4 level. Data were then analyzed by using Anova test and T-test. Result: Results indicated that the cognitive supports had an effect in increasing the levels of absolute CD4 and CD4 percentage of people living with HIV at a signifi cance value of 0.003. However, there was no signifi cant difference between the control groups taking ARV regularly and irregularly. Discussion: The provision ofcognitive support was capable to stimulate the immune system by increasing T lymphocytes that have CD4 molecular markers. Thus, an increase in the levels of CD4 is expected to improve the quality of life of people living with HIV.Keywords: cognitive support, HIV, CD4

The midbrain roof and cerebellum cortex are the main integrative centers in amphibians. They serve to analyze and process nerve impulses, form the organism’s response, regulate and coordinate movements, connect amphibians with their environments. The present study addresses the relationship between the species of the tailless amphibians inhabiting the southern part of the Krasnoyarsk region (Bufo bufo Linnaeus, Rana arvalis Nilsson, Pelophylax ridibundus Pallas, and Rana amurensis Boulenger) and the morphological parameters of the populations of neurons and glia in layer VI of the midbrain roof and layers of the cerebellum cortex. The species-specific structure of amphibians’ brain regions has been found to be evident not only at the organ level (size and shape), but also at the level of the organization of neuron and glial cell populations. Distinctive species-specific differences can be found in the parameters of cell area (the area of the body, the area of the nucleus and the area of the cytoplasm) and the distribution density of neurons and gliocytes. The development of specific morphological features at the cellular level of the arrangement of the midbrain and cerebellum layers in different species of tailless amphibians is associated with long-term phylogenetic transformations of their nervous system and adaptation of amphibians to the terrestrial-aquatic habitat

Diabetes Mellitus Management

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) or commonly known as diabetes is a disease caused by impaired carbohydrate metabolism due to the pancreas cannot produce insulin or can produce insulin but the body is not able to use insulin effectively and also produces less insulin, so the body is unable to metabolize carbohydrates, fats, and proteins due to insulin deficiency. Insulin is a hormone that regulates the balance of blood glucose in the body. The writing of this article uses a method of literature review or review literature by reviewing several journals and articles about the relationship between fasting and control of diabetes mellitus management. Journals are downloaded or obtained through the journal portal of universities in Indonesia. The process of writing this article is carried out for two weeks. The results showed that Ramadan fasting is related to DM control through DM management. The conclusion is that there is a significant relationship between several journals studied.

The Relationship

In the following essay I draw on existing literature to suggest that homebirth represents the convergence of knowledge, power, and control during pregnancy, labor, and delivery. I pay particular attention to the ways in which working-class women are disadvantaged by the medicalized model of childbirth and are less likely to acquire extensive knowledge about birth, less likely to feel as though they have power over their own birthing experiences, and less likely to exercise control over obstetric interventions and their birth environments. This is a problem that is, on the one hand, caused by a problematic health care system and inadequately staffed public health clinics and, on the other, a model of childbirth that values medicalized birth knowledge over embodied birth knowledge. I argue that all women can and should be made more aware of the various birthing options that are available to them so they can make birthing decisions that are not based solely on fears of obstetric dysfunction. I also encourage birth activists to explore the relationship between social class and birth options so their advocacy efforts can better address women's needs.
