e22007 Background: To evaluate the efficacy of the regimen of combination of irinotecan and doxorubicin hydrochloride liposome in relapsed/refractory pediatric Wilms’ tumor. Life quality and toxicity are seriously considered and assessed. Methods: The project stipulated 5-day course of irinotecan 50 mg/m2 (90-minute infusion) and doxorubicin hydrochloride liposome 40mg/m2 every 3 weeks. Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor was applied when the number of neutrophil count was lower than 1,000/ L. Results: 16 patients received 1to 8 courses (median, 3 courses) of this regimen, including 8 males and 8 females, with a median age of 4.2 years old (range, 0.5-11) . 2 patients were not assessable for response (1were treated in third CR, and 1with refractory WT received only one course as part of complex salvage regimens). Of 14 patients treated for relapsed or refractory Wilms’ tumor and accessed for response, 2 patients had complete responses (CR), 5 patients had partial responses (PR). Of 2 patients had stable diseases (SD), including 1 patient showed objective response on pulmonary lesion. The disease control rate was 64% (2 CR, 5 PR, and 2 SD), and the objective response rate was 50% (2 CR, 5 PR). The median progression-free survival was 3.5 months (range 0.5-12), and the median survival duration was 8 months (range 1-28). Myelosuppressive and gastrointestinal adverse effects were self-limited and clinically controllable with routinely intervention, and this therapeutic regimen was generally continued without delayed therapy. Multiple courses of this regimen had no cumulative toxicity and achieved disease control in relapsed or refractory Wilms’ tumor. Conclusions: The regimen of combination of irinotecan and doxorubicin hydrochloride liposome has positive effect on relapsed/refractory Wilms’ tumor with gentle toxicity without reducing the efficacy, and achieves good quality of life.

In two parts of the article, more than 70 errors and violations of the Biotechnics of artificial breeding of Pacific salmon in salmon hatcheries are collected and summarized, which lead to an immediate or delayed deterioration of the quality of reared fry and a decrease in their survival rate. Deviations from the biological basis of fish farming are shown and possible consequences of such errors or violations are predicted. In the first part of the article (#7,2020) there were General errors (throughout the entire fish-breeding process), as well as violations of Biotechnics during the work with producers, collecting eggs and preparing them for incubation, in the second part-violations of Biotechnics during the incubation of eggs, holding pre-larvae, rearing and release of young. Their correction, prevention or minimization of consequences will significantly improve the quality of sexual products and offspring from producers, increase the linear and weight gain of juveniles during rearing, improve the coefficient of feed payment, reduce the time of rearing, improve the epizootic situation by developing immunity in fry and mobilizing other protective reactions of their body, significantly reduce waste at all stages of the production process, increasing survival by 10–15%. In conclusion, it is noted that the first and most important condition for an efficient salmon hatchery is the creation of optimal environmental conditions at each stage of the production process. The second condition is strict compliance with the Biotechnics of artificial salmon breeding and the complex of veterinary and sanitary, fish-breeding and meliorative and therapeutic and preventive measures. The third is the availability of competent specialists who regularly improve their skills in accredited Universities to implement, control and manage the first two conditions.

AbstractThe aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between the concentration of hormones in the seminal plasma, the bull maintenance system in the insemination station, and the regularity of sperm donation and the response to the phantom (libido level). An additional goal was to determine whether there is a relationship between the hormonal profile in the blood, the sperm plasma, the oxidative and antioxidant profile in the blood of bulls and the biometry of their testicles and scrotum, as well as the quality of their sperm in both different seasons and intensities of reproductive use. For the study, 220 healthy and sexually mature Polish Holstein–Friesian bulls were used. They all had normal libido and were fed equally. The animals were grouped according to the scheme: young (16–20 month/n = 60) and old (26–30 month/n = 60) including: individually housed (n = 30) and group housed (n = 30) young, old individually housed (n = 30) and group housed (n = 30) (n total animals = 120); young animals donating semen once a week (every Thursday) (n = 25) and sporadically (once every two months on a random day of the week) (n = 25), old animals donating semen once a week (every Thursday) (n = 25 ) and sporadic donors (once every two months on a random day of the week) (n = 25) (n total animals = 100). When analyzing the results of this study, it should be stated that regular use has a positive effect on the secretion of sex hormones in bulls. Higher levels of testosterone and lower levels of estradiol and prostaglandins resulted in higher sexual performance, expressed by a stronger response to the phantom. The differences in favor of regular use were independent of the bull's age. The results of our research illustrate that the quality of semen and its freezing potential may depend on the season and frequency of its collection, as well as on the age of the males.

AbstractChina has made great efforts to alleviate poverty in rural ethnic minority areas and targeted achieving the poverty-alleviation task by the end of 2020. Aba, Ganzi, and Liangshan, three of the poorest ethnic prefectures in Sichuan Province, Southwest China, have all implemented “Internet+” tactics since 2013, which have had the positive effect of increasing family revenues by improving communication infrastructure and encouraging the large-scale use of e-commerce. This paper aims to comprehensively investigate whether “Internet+” tactics play a key role in poverty alleviation in Sichuan’s rural ethnic minority areas and to propose further measures to enhance the efficiency of e-commerce practice. To this end, we conduct an analysis using the framework of classic growth theory and use panel data from 2000 to 2018 to examine the relationship between Communication Infrastructure Investment (CII) and a set of poverty-alleviation indicators, including local GDP growth rate (LGGR), local government revenue (LGR), and per-capita income of residents (PCIR). The results indicate that strengthening CII improves the PCIR and local economic growth, playing a key role in poverty alleviation. However, the stimulation of CII on LGGR and LGR wanes as time passes. More financial and technical actions will be needed to improve the efficiency and quality of current strategies for sustainable development in those areas.
