Journal articles on the topic 'Nail trim'

Rotational outbred adult rats, phenotypically selected to prefer drinking alcohol ("P" rats) frequently present with selfinflicted wounds and ulcerative dermatitis, similar to that seen in C57BL/6 mice. Historically, veterinary interventions used to address this clinical condition have included triple antibiotic ointment (TABO), Columbia wound powder (CPW), nail trims, or plastic tubes that allow affected animals to hide. More recent studies have suggested that nail trims are the most successful intervention in mice, but this has not been evaluated previously in rats. In this study, we evaluated nail trims in rats and also tested whether placing a pumice stone in the cage would reduce the need for nail trims to reduce self-inflicted wounds. Our hypothesis was that interacting with the pumice stone would dull/trim the rats' nails without causing stress or illness and allow the wounds time to heal. We used 66 P rats that were assigned to 1 of 6 treatment groups (pumice stone, TABO, CWP, huts, nail trims, and an untreated control group) of 11 rats each. Rats were transferred to this study from a colony of experimentally naïve animals that had evidence of dermatitis. The wounds were photographed and measured for 12 wk at 2 wk intervals. At the end of the study, representative skin samples from the site of the wound were collected for histopathologic evaluation of inflammation. Our data showed no significant differences in the inflammation scores. The rats treated with nail trims healed significantly more often than did all of the other treatment groups. This suggests that nail trims are the most effective intervention for treating self-inflicted wounds in P rats.

Murine ulcerative dermatitis (UD) is a common, multifactorial skin disease of C57BL/6 and C57BL/6-background strains of mice. Many treatment options have been previously reported but have been variably successful and may interfere with specific research studies. Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors, such as oclacitinib, have been used to treat allergic dermatitis in humans, dogs, and other species. Additionally, topical oclacitinib was shown to improve an induced model of dermatitis in mice. We hypothesized that topical application of oclacitinib in conjunction with hind limb nail trimming would improve UD lesion scores more than our institutional standard treatment regime using meloxicam, topical antibiotic ointment, and nail trimming or nail trimming alone. To test this, mice with naturally occurring UD were recruited to the study and assigned to one of three treatment groups (n = 14/group): nail trim only; nail trim plus meloxicam and topical triple antibiotic ointment; or nail trim plus topical oclacitinib. UD was assessed on days 1, 7, and 14 for all treatment groups, and scored based on a previously published scoring system that quantitatively scored UD lesions based on pruritus, character of the lesion, size of lesion, and location of lesion. Here we found that mean UD scores decreased from day 1 to day 7 and from day 1 to day 14 for all treatment groups. However, there was no significant difference in mean UD score between the treatment groups at any timepoint. These data show that topical oclacitinib and nail trimming together improved UD lesion scores comparably to our institutional standard treatment and nail trimming alone. However, further studies may be warranted to investigate other potential applications of oclacitinib to treat UD.

A 10-year-old, neutered male English bulldog died acutely from respiratory distress after a short history of progressive dyspnea. Less than 2 months later, a spayed female full sibling of that dog died suddenly during a nail trim. An aortic body tumor was the cause of death in both dogs based on postmortem and histological examinations. A pheochromocytoma was also diagnosed in the neutered male. Neither dog had a history of brachycephalic airway syndrome, and the implication for a genetic predisposition toward the development of paraganglioma is discussed. This is the first case report of aortic body tumors in sibling dogs, although the condition may not be an uncommon phenomenon.

Plantar keratodermas can arise due to a variety of genetically inherited mutations. The need to distinguish between different plantar keratoderma disorders is becoming increasingly apparent because there is evidence that they do not respond identically to treatment. Diagnosis can be aided by observation of other clinical manifestations, such as palmar keratoderma, more widespread hyperkeratosis of the epidermis, hair and nail dystrophies, or erythroderma. However, there are frequent cases of plantar keratoderma that occur in isolation. This review focuses on the rare autosomal dominant keratin disorder pachyonychia congenita, which presents with particularly painful plantar keratoderma for which there is no specific treatment. Typically, patients regularly trim/pare/file/grind their calluses and file/grind/clip their nails. Topical agents, including keratolytics (eg, salicylic acid, urea) and moisturizers, can provide limited benefit by softening the skin. For some patients, retinoids help to thin calluses but may lead to increased pain. This finding has stimulated a drive for alternative treatment options, from gene therapy to alternative nongenetic methods that focus on novel findings regarding the pathogenesis of pachyonychia congenita and the function of the underlying genes.

A novel now commonly used device in many countries called a “weed-wacker” is a mechanical rotating device with a cord used to trim lawns and grass. A case of a 14-year old boy with a false aneurysm of the brachial artery is presented; he sustained a missile injury by a piece of rusty steel projected by use of a weed wacker. Missile injuries by nail guns and bullets have been documented in the literature; however, this mechanism of injury by a weed-wacker has never been previously described and is presented as a unique mechanism of injury and brings attention the issue of safety with the use of the weed-wacker.

Background and Objectives: Intestinal parasitic infection is an important public health problem in Nepal because of its high morbidity and mortality. The distribution and prevalence of the various intestinal parasites species depend on social, geographical, economical and inhabitant customs. Therefore, the present study was designed to determine the burden of intestinal parasitic infections and its relation with sanitary practices and socio-demographic characteristics in Muslim community of Janakpurdham, Nepal.Material and Methods: A total of 161 stool samples were collected in dry, clean and screw capped plastic container and were preserved with 10% formalin. The stool samples were examined by direct microscopy and confirmed by concentration methods. Modified Ziehl Neelsen (ZN) staining was performed for the detection of coccidian parasites. P- value < 0.05 was considered as statistically significant.Results: The incidence of intestinal parasitic infection was 63.35% (male = 57.84% vs. female = 42.15%) (p = 0.321). The positive cases of parasitic infection were found to be slightly higher in less than 10 years (35.29%) than others. Hookworm (10%) and G. lamblia (28%) infection was marginally higher than other helminthic and protozoan infection. The highest number of positive cases of parasitic infection was found in those who didn’t wash their hands before meal, defecates stool haphazardly in open area, didn’t wash their hands after toilet, didn’t trim their nail, in larger family, with low income and in housewives which was found to be statistically significant (p = <0.05).Conclusion: The health status was found poor among Nepalese Muslim people. Routine periodic screening of parasitic infection among people, changing behavior, public educations on improved personal and environmental hygiene are the fundamental principle in the control of infection.Janaki Medical College Journal of Medical Sciences (2016) Vol. 4 (1): 36-45

YP 676 underway The results of a systematic series of small (5 ft) models of hulls typical of coastal patrol, training, or recreational powerboats are presented and discussed. Hull form parameters studied include length-to-beam ratio, displacement-length ratio, longitudinal position of the center of gravity and section shape (hard chine or round bilge). The effects of these parameters on the calm-water resistance and running attitude (sinkage and trim) over a range of speeds corresponding to waterline length Froude numbers from 0.10 to 0.60 were investigated in the 120-ft towing tank at the U.S. Naval Academy Hydromechanics Laboratory (NAHL). Experimental procedures and computer-based data acquisition and analysis methods used at NAHL are described. The experimental results as well as the cross-faired and nondimensionalized stillwater resistance trends are presented. Comparisons with other resistance prediction methods for hulls of the subject type are made. An example of the application of the resistance prediction to the new 108-ft yard patrol craft (YP) being acquired by the U.S. Naval Academy is included.

Recognizing the richness of multilingual theatre in Canada, this article argues that the choice of nontranslation as the absolute staging of multilingual hospitality carries the promise of a more radical cohabitation and offers both critical and reparative encounters with bodies that resist mainstream recuperation. Beyond multicultural accommodation of diversity, non-translation as a politicized choice is examined through examples chosen from contemporary Asian Canadian and Afro-Caribbean Canadian drama, as well as Indigenous performance. Specifically, the article analyzes the deployment of multilingualism “from below” (Alison Phipps’s term) in front of mainstream Anglophone audiences in such plays as debbie young and naila belvett’s yagayah.two.womyn.black.griots, Betty Quan’s Mother Tongue, and Monique Mojica’s Chocolate Woman Dreams the Milky Way. The decolonial practice of non-translation embraced by these playwrights contributes to the trend of “diversifying diversity” and promotes more balanced linguistic ecologies. Rather than softening the hard edges of difference in a global spread of equivalences, multilingualism “from below,” associated with minoritized languages and invisibility, embraces radical heterogeneity and incommensurability, radically confronting the meaning of ethnicized, hyphenated multiculturalism. However, at the same time, these forms of multilingualism throw into high relief the selective cultural politics of translation that privileges Canada’s official bilingualism

A total of 200 stool samples were examined and five species of intestinal parasites were identified. Two of them were protozoans (Entamoeba histolytica and Giardia intestinalis) and the rest of which three species were nematode parasites (Ascaris lumbricoides, Trichuris trichiura and Strongyloids stercoralis). The overall prevalence of parasitic infection was 50%. Individually the prevalence of Ascaris lumbricoides, Entamoeba histolytica, Giardia intestinalis, Trichuris trichiura and Strongyloids stercoralis was 25%, 13%, 6%, 3.5% and 2.5%, respectively. Patients of different age and sex had a variable degree of infection. Children aged under ten years showed the highest prevalence (73.97%) compared to other groups. Accordingly, male patients were found slightly more susceptible to the infection (50.38%) compared to the female (49.29%). People belonging to different occupation and educational qualification had various degree of infection. As expected patients who had no education and poor monthly income, showed the highest prevalence of infection, 77.77% and 90%, respectively. Personal hygiene practices of the patients had much influence on the parasitic prevalence and rate of infection. Respectively 58.82%, 91.42%, 80% and 63.55% prevalence were found among the patients who used to drink unsafe water, wash hands without soap, stay barefooted most of the time and do not trim their nails regularly. The present study supposed to reveal that socioeconomic conditions and behavioral factors may influence the prevalence of parasitic infections. Bangladesh J. Zool. 47(1): 129-136, 2019

THE AIM: to evaluate the effect of a high-salt diet on the level of miRNA expression in urine and the mechanisms of endothelium-dependent vascular dilatation in rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 20 Wistar rats were divided into two equal groups. The high salt (HS) group received 8 % NaCl in the diet, the control (NS) received the standard diet (0.34 % NaCl). After 4 months, blood pressure (BP), left ventricular mass index (IMLV) were assessed in rats, and relative expression levels of miRNA-21, miRNA-133, and miRNA-203 were determined in urine. The reactivity of the rings of the aorta and the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) to acetylcholine (ACh) was assessed in vitro in isometric mode. RESULTS: there was no significant difference between the groups in terms of mean blood pressure (p> 0.05). However, in HS-rats an increase in IMLV was noted. The relative levels of expression of miRNA-21, miRNA-133, and miRNA-203 in the urine of rats fed a high-salt diet increased significantly as compared to the values of control animals. A high-salt diet resulted in a decrease in the reactivity of vascular segments precontracted with phenylephrine to ACh. A high-salt diet resulted in a decrease in the reactivity of vascular segments precontracted with phenylephrine to ACh. In the HS-group, the decrease in the amplitude of vasodilation under the action of ACh under conditions of blockade of NO-synthase (with the use of L-NIO) was less compared to the reaction in the absence of the blocker, than the NS-group: in the SMA of the HS group – by 45 %, NS group – by 69.4 %, in the aorta HS-group – by 49.4 %, NS-group – by 80.7 %. In contrast to the aorta, blockade of Ca2+-sensitive K+-channels in SMA (under the conditions of administration of tetraethylammonium, TRAM-34, or apamin) weakened ACh-induced relaxation, and in HS-rats, the decrease in vasodilation was more pronounced. CONCLUSION: consumption of a high-salt diet, without changing blood pressure, increases IMLV and the level of miRNA expression in the urine, and also reduces endothelium-dependent vascular relaxation, mediated, in particular, by impaired endothelial NO production, which is more pronounced in the aorta than in the SMA.

Summary In the development of shaly sand saturation models, core data are of exceptional value. These data are required to check the descriptive and predictive power of existing models and compare them with new concepts. This paper aims to add to the modest set of generally available core data on shaly sands by presenting a variety of special core-analysis measurements on a number of shaly sand core samples. The experiments presented here include standard petrophysical measurements, continuous injection (CI) resistivity measurements (at ambient and elevated temperatures), nuclear magnetic resonance experiments (t1 and t2 acquisitions on fully brine-saturated samples; t2-diffusion measurements with an external magnetic gradient on partially brine-saturated samples), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images that have been subjected to image analysis. Introduction Whereas the number of theoretical models to describe the resistivity behavior of shaly sands is rather large, published data sets used to validate these models are scarce. This is hardly surprising if one realizes the amount of work that is involved, and the precision with which this work has to be carried out, to arrive at high-quality data. Examples of such data sets are the measurements on the Group 1 samples of Hill and Millburn, 1 Group II samples of Waxman and Smits,2 the high temperature results of Kern et al.,3 and the extensive clay property measurements of Hill et al.4 Information on the response of the conductivity of the samples at partial hydrocarbon saturations is missing from the aforementioned data sets. The Waxman and Thomas data set5 partially resolved this drawback with the presentation of C o-Cw curves at elevated temperatures in combination with resistivity index measurements at room temperature. However, the range in which the hydrocarbon saturations varied, from 0 to 50%, was rather limited. To arrive at a more complete set, shaly samples with various cation exchange capacities, originating from different wells, were selected for measurement of their electrical behavior at 100% brine saturation and at partial hydrocarbon saturation. The cation exchange capacity (Qv) of these samples ranges from 0.1 to 0.3 meq/mL pore volume (PV). SEM confirmed that the shale is not laminated in these samples; the clay minerals were not analyzed explicitly. Data from these samples form the currently presented Group III data set. This data set has formed the basis of the recently developed effective-medium saturation model SATORI.6* This article contains a host of relevant petrophysical and related properties obtained from the Group III sample set that can be used for testing shaly sand saturation models. The resistivity data presented here comprise resistivity index curves (at ambient temperature and some at elevated temperature), formation resistivity factors, and excess clay conductivities derived from concentration membrane potentials. Moreover, the nuclear magnetic resonance and SEM data provide more detail and information about the pore structure and constitution of the samples. The analyses were conducted with our routine procedures, as briefly outlined later. We have chosen a graphical presentation of the acquired data because of the size; however, if readers are interested in the digital form of the data set, they are invited to contact the first author. Standard Core Analysis Before each measurement, the samples were cleaned by hot solvent extraction at 52°C with an azeotropic mixture of chloroform/methanol/water. Subsequently, the samples were dried in a vacuum oven at 95°C. The porosity of the samples at ambient conditions was determined by the buoyancy method, both before and after the various special analyses. Before these, the air permeability of the samples was measured at a radial confining stress of 15 bar. Formation Resistivity Factor (F R). The samples were saturated with brine (100 g NaCl/L) and mounted individually in a Hassler-type core holder at a confining stress of 70 bar (the same stress as used for the resistivity index measurement). The sample was flushed with brine until equilibrium was reached in the resistance measurement. The resistivity of the brine was determined separately. From the resistivity of the 100% saturated sample, Ro, and the brine resistivity, Rw, the formation resistivity factor, FR=Ro/Rw, was calculated. Concentration Membrane Potential (Mc). The samples for measurement of the membrane potential were saturated with NaCl-brine of 8.4 g NaCl/L and mounted individually in a core holder.7 A salinity contrast was applied across the sample by alternating flushing one end-face of the sample with brine of 11.1 g NaCl/L and the other end-face with brine of 5.6 g NaCl/L. The equipment was maintained at 25°C during the experiment. The potential difference across the sample was recorded, and the maximum difference between this potential and the separately measured diffusion (or liquid junction) potential of the two brine solutions is a measure of the clay conductivity Ce (=B Qv) as defined in the Waxman-smits model.2 The factor, B, is the equivalent counter ion mobility, and the Qv is the cation exchange capacity of the clay per unit PV (Qv in meq/mL Vpore). The clay conductivity, Ce, is calculated from the difference between the membrane potential of a shaly sample and the liquid junction potential of the brine, and the difference between the potential of a perfect membrane (Nernst potential) and the liquid junction potential of the brine. The brine salinity and temperature determine the B-value, and the Qv of the sample can, hence, be derived. Wet Chemistry Cation Exchange Capacity (Qv). Cation exchange capacity (Qv) experiments were carried out according to a titration method, with barium chloride and magnesium sulfate as the reagents. The measurements are performed on trim-ends from the samples. The clean sample is crushed, and de-mineralized water and barium chloride are added. The clay present in the sample is converted into a monoionic barium clay. The excess barium is washed from the sample. Subsequently, the amount of barium present in the clay is titrated conductometrically with a standard magnesium sulfate solution. The calculated Q v value is expressed in meq/mL PV. Resistivity Measurements Standard CI Equipment. The sample is mounted in a Hassler-type core holder in a rubber sleeve between two plungers with platinum electrodes. A semipermeable membrane is placed between the sample and the bottom electrode.

Abstract Introduction: Novel agents are needed for multiple myeloma (MM), which remains incurable with most patients (pts) relapsing or becoming refractory to standard therapies. Talquetamab (Tal) is a bispecific antibody that binds to G protein-coupled receptor family C group 5 member D (GPRC5D), a receptor highly expressed on plasma cells with limited expression in healthy tissue, and CD3 to redirect T cells to GPRC5D-expressing MM cells. Tal monotherapy at the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) was well tolerated and yielded an overall response rate of 70% after 6.3 months of follow-up in pts with relapsed/refractory MM (RRMM) in the phase 1 MonumenTAL-1 study; responses were durable and continued to deepen over time. Daratumumab (Dara) is a monoclonal antibody approved for MM treatment that targets CD38 on MM cells, resulting in direct cytotoxicity of MM cells. Dara also impacts immune cell populations, ie, increasing helper and cytotoxic T cells and decreasing suppressive CD38+ immunoregulatory cells. Preclinical studies showed addition of Dara enhanced Tal-mediated lysis of MM cells, suggesting the combination may also increase clinical activity in pts with RRMM. We report initial findings for pts with RRMM who received Tal + Dara in a phase 1b multicohort study (TRIMM-2; NCT04108195). Methods: Eligible pts (aged ≥18 years) were diagnosed with MM and had received ≥3 prior lines of therapy (including a proteasome inhibitor [PI] and immunomodulatory drug [IMiD]) or were double refractory to a PI and an IMiD. Pts were excluded if they had received an anti-CD38 therapy ≤90 days. Subcutaneous (SC) Tal and Dara were administered in 28-day cycles in different dosing cohorts (with step-up dosing for Tal). The primary objectives were to identify the RP2D of Tal in combination with Dara and to characterize the safety of Tal + Dara at the RP2D. Responses were assessed by IMWG criteria. Adverse events (AEs) were graded per CTCAE v5.0 (cytokine release syndrome [CRS] and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome [ICANS] graded per ASTCT guidelines). Results: As of Jul 23, 2021, 23 pts were administered SC Tal + Dara in separate cohorts: Dara 1800 mg + Tal 400 µg/kg weekly (n=8), + Tal 400 µg/kg biweekly (n=5), and + Tal 800 µg/kg biweekly (n=10). Median follow-up across the Tal + Dara cohorts was 2.9 months (range 0.3-11.2). Median age of pts treated with Tal + Dara was 68 years (range 44-81), and 52.2% were male. Pts had received a median of 6 prior lines of therapy (range 3-18); 82.6% were triple-class exposed (82.6% received prior Dara and 8.7% received prior isatuximab) and 73.9% were penta-drug exposed. Any grade AEs were reported in 95.7% of pts and grade 3/4 AEs in 78.3%. The most frequently reported AEs (≥30% across Tal + Dara cohorts) were dysgeusia (52.2%; all grade 1/2), neutropenia (39.1%; grade 3/4 30.4%), thrombocytopenia (39.1%; grade 3/4 21.7%), anemia (34.8%; grade 3/4 21.7%), CRS (34.8%; all grade 1/2), and skin exfoliation (30.4%; all grade 1/2). The median time to CRS onset was 2.5 days (range 2-4), and the median duration was 2 days (range 1-3). Infections occurred in 34.8% of pts (grade 3/4 17.4%). Skin disorders were reported in 65.2% of pts (grade 3/4 13.0%), including nail disorders in 17.4% (all grade 1/2); these events were manageable and did not lead to treatment discontinuation. Two events of ICANS were reported (a grade 1 event [concurrent with CRS] and a grade 3 event), both of which resolved and did not recur. One pt in the Dara 1800 mg + Tal 400 μg/kg biweekly cohort died due to disease progression. Responses in different dosing cohorts are shown in the Table. The median time to first response across Tal + Dara cohorts was 1.0 month (range 0.9-2.4), and median duration of response was not reached. The pharmacokinetic profile of Tal was similar to that observed in the phase 1 monotherapy study. Tal + Dara treatment resulted in proinflammatory cytokine production and T-cell activation, evidenced by interferon-γ and tumor necrosis factor-α induction and PD-1 and CD38 upregulation on peripheral T cells, respectively. Updated data with longer follow-up will be presented at the congress. Conclusions: Tal in combination with Dara was well tolerated, with a safety profile comparable to the monotherapies, and showed promising efficacy in pts with RRMM. These findings support further clinical development of Tal + Dara combination therapy. Figure 1 Figure 1.

ABSTRACT The morphological characteristics that impact feeding ecology in ectotherms, particularly reptiles, are poorly understood. We used morphometric measures and stable isotope analysis (carbon-13 and nitrogen-15) to assess the link between diet and functional morphology in an island population of an evolutionarily unique reptile, the tuatara (Sphenodon punctatus). First, we established a significant positive correlation between overall body size, gape size, and fat store in tuatara (n=56). Next, we describe the relationship between stable isotope profiles created from whole blood and nail trim samples and demonstrate that nail trims offer a low-impact method of creating a long-term dietary profile in ectotherms. We used nitrogen-15 values to assess trophic level in the population and found that tuatara on Takapourewa forage across multiple trophic levels. Finally, we found a significant relationship between gape size and carbon-13 (linear regression: P&lt;0.001), with tuatara with large gapes showing dietary profiles that suggest a higher intake of marine (seabird) prey. However, whether body size or gape size is the primary adaptive characteristic allowing for more optimal foraging is yet unknown. This article has an associated First Person interview with the first author of the paper.

Introduction: University students who live together in campuses and share different materials for their day-to-day activities may expose them to intestinal parasitic infections. As far as our knowledge is concerned, there is insufficient information on the magnitude of parasitic infections among students at Adama Science and Technology University Objectives: To determine Prevalence of intestinal parasitic infection and associated factors among Adama University Student Adama Town, Oromia, Ethiopia. Methods: A cross sectional study was conducted among 483 students attending higher health center at Adama University Student by using systematic random sampling technique. Data on socio-demographic characteristics and potential associated factors for Intestinal parasitic infection was collected by structured interviewer administered questionnaire. One-gram stool samples for direct saline microscopy was collected and processed in accordance to the standard parasitological techniques and procedures at Adama Science and Technology University Higher Health Center Laboratory. Data entry and analysis was done using SPSS version 20.0.Chi- square test and multiple logistic regression was used to identify associated factors. Association between variables were considered statistically significant only if a two-sided P-value <0.05 at 95% confidence level. Results: This study demonstrates the overall prevalence of intestinal parasite among student accounts 20.1% (95%CI; 16.8, 23.8). Two protozoa and three helminthes spp were detected from total stool sample examined. The predominate parasite isolated were E.histolotica 63(13.0%) followed by G.lamblia 27(5.6%), Taenia spp 3(0.6%), Hookworm 2(0.4%) and H.nana 2(0.4%) respectively. being rural residence[AOR]: 2.69, 95% CI: (1.22,5.9)], lower parental educational status(illiterate [AOR]: 5.5, 95% CI: (1.99,15.5)] and primary[AOR]: 3.75, 95% CI: (1.5,9.34)], food source from private cafeterias[AOR]: 2.46, 95% CI: (1.15,5.2)], not hand washing before food and after defecation[AOR]: 4.9, 95% CI: (1.96,12.3)], Habit of eating raw vegetables and fruit[AOR]: 4.8, 95% CI:(2.28,10.1)], walking with bare foot[AOR]: 13.2, 95% CI: (5.4,32.4)], not trimming finger nail [AOR]: 6.85, 95% CI: (3.2,14.6)] and not using soap [AOR]: 7.53, 95% CI: (3.2,17.8)]were significantly associated with parasitic infection. Conclusions and Recommendations: The present study demonstrated the frequencies of intestinal parasitic infections among students were found to be high. Residence, educational status of parents, hand washing before meal and after defection, eating raw vegetables and fruit, walking with bare foot was significant predictors of parasitic infection: Hence all students should wash their hand before meal and after defecation, consume cooked vegetables, avoid walking with barefoot and trim their fingernail and university should improve and sustain inspection and food handler screening of private cafeterias.

Summary Clustered observations are ubiquitous in controlled and observational studies and arise naturally in multicenter trials or longitudinal surveys. We present a novel model for the analysis of clustered observations where the marginal distributions are described by a linear transformation model and the correlations by a joint multivariate normal distribution. The joint model provides an analytic formula for the marginal distribution. Owing to the richness of transformation models, the techniques are applicable to any type of response variable, including bounded, skewed, binary, ordinal, or survival responses. We demonstrate how the common normal assumption for reaction times can be relaxed in the sleep deprivation benchmark data set and report marginal odds ratios for the notoriously difficult toe nail data. We furthermore discuss the analysis of two clinical trials aiming at the estimation of marginal treatment effects. In the first trial, pain was repeatedly assessed on a bounded visual analog scale and marginal proportional-odds models are presented. The second trial reported disease-free survival in rectal cancer patients, where the marginal hazard ratio from Weibull and Cox models is of special interest. An empirical evaluation compares the performance of the novel approach to general estimation equations for binary responses and to conditional mixed-effects models for continuous responses. An implementation is available in the tram add-on package to the $\texttt{R}$ system and was benchmarked against established models in the literature.

Jāvaid Aḥmad Ghāmidī, a contemporary Muslim modernist scholar, holds that the three established rituals of ḥajj and ‘umrah can be regarded as independent rituals in religion, which he categorises asnadhar (votive offering). The ritual is performed by fulfilling three conditions: 1) abstaining from removing body hair, 2) refraining from clipping nails, and 3) trimming or shaving the head. According to Ghāmidī, all believers can perform this rite, without any spatio-temporal restriction, as a supererogatory act. The Prophet (P.B.U.H.), he believes, encouraged Muslims to voluntarily observe it on the occasion of ‘īd al-aḍḥā. This is inferred by combining the information found in two Prophetic narrations, one reported by Umm Salamah and the other by ‘Abd Allah b. ‘āmr. In Ghāmidī’s view, all believers whether or not they are offering the animal sacrifice may offer such nadhar. For doing so, they would follow the two aforestated restrictions from the beginning of Dhū al-Ḥijjah (the twelfth month of the Islamic calendar) and trim or shave their heads on the ‘Īd day after the animal has been slaughtered (if they are to offer the sacrifice) orin anytime during the day (if they are not to offer the sacrifice). This last act is seen as a token of the completion of their votive offering to God. After a careful discussion of Ghāmidī’s view, this article concludes that the religious and rational arguments put forward by Ghāmidī are insufficient to relate the three rites (separately mentioned in the above Prophetic narrations) to the corresponding rites of ḥajj and ‘umrah and generalize them, out of the context, as one standalone ritual.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), a novel coronavirus , is causing a serious worldwide COVID-19 pandemic. The emergence of strains with rapid spread and unpredictable changes is the cause of the increase in morbidity and mortality rates. A number of drugs as well as vaccines are currently being used to relieve symptoms, prevent and treat the disease caused by this virus. However, the number of approved drugs is still very limited due to their effectiveness and side effects. In such a situation, medicinal plants and bioactive compounds are considered a highly valuable source in the development of new antiviral drugs against SARS-CoV-2. This review summarizes medicinal plants and bioactive compounds that have been shown to act on molecular targets involved in the infection and replication of SARS-CoV-2.
