Abstract:

A rumbling sound is one of the most important sound qualities in a passenger car. In previous work, a method for objectively evaluating the rumbling sound was developed based on the principal rumble component. In the present paper, the rumbling sound was found to relate effectively not only to the principal rumble component but also to the loudness and roughness. The last two subjective parameters are sound metrics in psychoacoustics. The principal rumble component, roughness, and loudness were used as the sound metrics for the development of the rumbling index to evaluate the rumbling sound objectively. The relationship between the rumbling index and these sound metrics is identified by an artificial neural network. Interior sounds of 14 passenger cars were measured, and 21 passengers subjectively evaluated the rumbling sound qualities of these interior sounds. Through this research, it was found that the results of these evaluations and the output of a neural network have a high correlation. The rumbling index has been successfully applied to the objective evaluation of the rumbling sound quality of mass-produced passenger cars.

Abstract:

AbstractThe steep increase in Greenland’s glacial earthquake activity detected by the Global Seismographic Network since the late 1990s suggests that a close inspection of these events might provide clues to the nature and origin of such seismic activity. Here we discuss the detection of large, unexpected seismic events of extraordinarily long duration (10–40 min) occurring about once every 2 days, and localized in the ice stream that feeds the Earth’s fastest-moving glacier (Jakobshavn Isbræ) from the east. These ‘glacial rumblings’ represent an ice-mass wasting process that is greater and more frequent than glacial earthquakes have suggested. Probably triggered by calving, the rumblings are all very similar regardless of duration, and all end with a sharp, earthquake-like event in which the largest seismic amplitude is in the rumbling and that might signal the collapse of large ice masses upstream. By calculating the total amount of seismic energy released as rumblings, we estimate that the maximum seasonal amount of ice moved seismogenically down the ice stream is up to 12 km3, or ∼30% of the average annual iceberg discharge in Jakobshavn.

Abstract:

It was already dark when I arrived, so dark that I hesitated at the driveway, wondering if I was at the wrong address. Dense foliage concealed the house and muffled the intense discussion inside. I made my way up the stairs, passing kī and pua kenikeni plants. Through the window I could see a group of eight or nine people in a circle around a low table with food and drink. The surrounding darkness made the warmly lit interior seem extra luminous, as if to accentuate the urgency of the conversation.

Abstract:

Aim. To assess the prevalence of bacterial overgrowth syndrome (BOS) and its risk factors in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). Subjects and methods. The patients from the Novosibirsk IBD registry, who had undergone a hydrogen breath test (HBT) using a Gastro+ device, were examined. Results. In 93 IBD patients who had undergone a HBD, the prevalence of BOS was 48% (46.2% for ulcerative colitis and 51.2% for Crohn’s disease). There was a strong correlation between abdominal bloating, abdominal rumbling, and positive HBT results in both patient groups. During the HBT, the patients with BOS frequently complained of diarrhea, borborygmi, belching, and anxiety. Conclusion. The findings suggest that BOS is highly prevalent among patients with IBD. BOS is associated with clinical symptoms, such as abdominal bloating, abdominal rumbling, tearfulness, and irritability.

Abstract:

AbstractThis article explores the religious importance of Cicero's De Haruspicum Responso against the background of prodigy-handling in Republican Rome. Comparing the prodigy in question to an ‘auditory epiphany’, it argues that key issues raised by the speech include the nature of the divine voice, the relationship of the prodigious ‘rumbling and clattering’ to the gods themselves, and the ambiguous temporalities implied by Roman practices of divination. The article also suggests that De Haruspicum Responso proposes a significant overlap between religious and political speech, and it questions the radical split often assumed between the religious ideology of Cicero's philosophical and his more ‘public’ works.

Abstract:

This article reconsiders Sartre's seminal 1945 talk, “Existentialism is a Humanism,” and the stakes of the humanism debate in France by looking at the immediate political context that has been overlooked in previous discussions of the text. It analyses the political discussion of the term “humanism” during the French national elections of 1945 and the rumbling debate over Sartre's philosophy that culminated in his presentation to the Club Maintenant, just one week after France went to the polls. A consideration of this context helps explain both the rise, and later the decline, of existentialism in France, when, in the changing political climate, humanism lost its centrality, setting the stage for new antihumanist criticisms of Sartre's work.

Abstract:

‘Gently rumbling without direction’, a programme note appended to the first part of Cassandra Miller's solo for piano Philip the Wanderer, might equally have stood in as descriptor for tonight's programme tout court. This is not meant as a criticism. Time's arrow, the vector of narratives real or implied, may well be the most burdensome yet most easily sloughed off (and perhaps least missed) item of nineteenth-century baggage to be jettisoned by composers over the last century or so. What tonight's collaboration between An Assembly and Ensemble x.y (led and programmed by the increasingly omnipresent wunderkind of British new music, Jack Sheen) offered up was a quite different approach, a different way through the passage of time. Less music as organised sound; more sound in itself a means for organising time.

Abstract:

Abstract The newest Russian poetic avant-garde wields highly aware appropriations and remediations in stark opposition to mainstream cultural phenomena, including nostalgia for the imperial and militant aestheticized politics of the Soviet Union. Efforts to think leftward beyond the state socialist past to a global egalitarian future challenge both Russian and “Western” narratives in our increasingly interconnected world. The Georgian-born Russian-language poet Keti Chukhrov, in particular, theorizes powerlessness in deeply local yet globally familiar ways. Despite the many voices rumbling through her work, Chukhrov’s theses are consistent: art must be communist; all desire, even faked, is political eros; and the post-Soviet subject is not even dead. Chukhrov embeds her politics in institutional critique, lends her labor to collectives and collaborations, and refracts her poetic voice into multitudes.

Abstract:

This article focuses on coal mining that is incredibly disruptive, and coal is heavy and bulky, involving rumbling freight trains to transport it. The idea that fuel cells are every bit as clean as coal is dirty is just as widespread. Fuel cells, after all, take hydrogen and oxygen, and combine those elements to make electricity and water. The program, called the Clean Coal Technology Program, was, in part, an effort to promote commercial-scale integrated gasification combined-cycle (IGCC) coal power plants in the United States. Molten carbonate fuel cell stacks routinely weigh in at 250 kW. For the Wabash River demonstration, eight stacks will be combined for 2 MW. It will be the largest carbonate fuel cell power plant operating on coal in the world. FuelCell Energy has been planning for this sort of project for more than 20 years.

Abstract:

Gastrointestinal symptoms associated with milk are common. Besides lactose, milk proteins may cause symptoms in sensitive individuals. We have developed a method for mild enzymatic hydrolysation of milk proteins and studied the effects of hydrolysed milk on gastrointestinal symptoms in adults with a self-diagnosed sensitive stomach. In a double blind, randomised placebo-controlled study, 97 subjects consumed protein-hydrolysed lactose-free milk or commercially available lactose-free milk for 10 d. Frequency of gastrointestinal symptoms during the study period was reported and a symptom score was calculated. Rumbling and flatulence decreased significantly in the hydrolysed milk group (P < 0·05). Also, the total symptom score was lower in subjects who consumed hydrolysed milk (P < 0·05). No difference between groups was seen in abdominal pain (P = 0·47) or bloating (P = 0·076). The results suggest that mild enzymatic protein hydrolysation may decrease gastrointestinal symptoms in adults with a sensitive stomach.

Abstract:

Background: Three-fourths of adults older than 55 years in the United States are overweight or obese. Prebiotics including inulin-type fructans may benefit with weight management. Aim: We aimed to investigate the acute effects of pre-meal inulin consumption on energy intake (EI) and appetite in older adults. Methods: Sedentary, overweight or obese middle-aged and older adults ( n = 7, 60.9 ± 4.4 years, BMI 32.9 ± 4.3 kg/m2) ingested inulin (10 g) or a water preload before each test period in a randomly assigned order. EI, appetite and gastrointestinal symptoms were monitored during the following 24 h. Results: No differences in EI were noted between conditions (inulin: 14744 ± 5552 kJ, control: 13924 ± 4904 kJ, p > 0.05). Rumbling was increased with inulin consumption ( p < 0.05). Conclusion: Pre-meal inulin consumption does not acutely decrease EI or suppress appetite in older adults. Further research should address individual differences among diets, eating behaviors, and microbiota profiles.

Abstract:

However, precisely because Plato did not yet have at his disposition the constituted categories of representation (these appeared with Aristotle), he had to base his decision on a theory of Ideas. What appears then, in its purest state, before the logic of representation could be deployed, is a moral vision of the world. It is in the first instance for these moral reasons that simulacra must be exorcized and difference thereby subordinated to the same and the similar. For this reason, however, because Plato makes the decision, and because with him the victory is not assured as it will be in the established world of representation, the rumbling of the enemy can still be heard. Insinuated throughout the Platonic cosmos, difference resists its yoke. Heraclitus and the Sophists make an infernal racket. It is as though there were a strange double which dogs Socrates’ footsteps and haunts even Plato's style, inserting itself into the repetitions and variations of that style.

Abstract:

It was with surprise and delight that, whilst on a research trip to Paris about a year ago, I accidentally discovered a score dating from Henri Dutilleux's Conservatoire period in the 1930s. What I stumbled upon was a song, titled Barque d'Or, written for soprano and piano. Dutilleux's father, Paul Dutilleux, who owned his own printing firm in Douai, published Barque d'Or in 1937. Roger Nichols has quoted Dutilleux's recollection of his father's work:All that ties in too with the craftsmanship I witnessed in my father's workshop, especially at the bench of one old engraver. We had a great respect for him, he looked like Brahms. On Sundays it was at that bench that my father sat me down to do my harmony exercises, without the piano. During the week my ears were full of the rumbling of the machines, but at those moments the absolute silence seemed to me to have an extraordinary quality — it was a very unusual feeling, which I often think about, and it was a great encouragement to the formation of my inner ear.

Abstract Objectives To determine the impact of State and Trait anxiety and dietary intake on college students' gastrointestinal symptoms during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods A total of 455 students, aged 18–23, from two residential colleges in the midwestern United States participated in the study during April 2021. An online questionnaire that included the National Cancer Institute Dietary Screener, State-Trait Inventory for Cognitive and Somatic Anxiety, and an adapted version of the Gastrointestinal Symptoms Questionnaire was used. Stepwise multiple regression analyses was used to analyze the data. Results The mean score for GI symptoms was 5.57 ± 5.25. Moderate to severe symptoms of abdominal bloating (31.8%), nausea (16.2%), passing gas (29.1%), abdominal rumbling (28.1%), abdominal cramping (20.4%), diarrhea (18.8%), and constipation (14.7%) were reported by our participants. High rates of State-somatic, State-cognitive, and Trait-somatic anxiety were present in our study population. These anxiety subscales and dietary intake predicted 26% and 3.8% of the GI symptoms variance, respectively. Conclusions State-anxiety and Trait-somatic anxiety are large factors in predicting GI symptoms compared to dietary intake. College students could seek anxiety-reducing techniques to ease GI symptoms. Funding Sources None

We studied the morphological and functional features of the stomach and duodenum in children with chronic gastroduodenitis (CGD) associated with Helicobacter pylori infection in 3 and 6 months after successful eradication therapy. Initially we carried out examination of 155 children with CGD associated with Helicobacter pylori (HP)-infection in the acute phase of the disease. In the following we examined 100 children in 3 and 6 months after the proven eradication of HP. We found that manifestations of abdominal pain syndrome was significantly decreased (100% in the acute stage versus 7% and 5% at 3 and 6 months after eradication, p < 0.01). At the same time, almost 30% of children still had symptoms of intestinal dyspepsia (31% and 36% of children after 3 and 6 months) in the form of rumbling along the colon and changes in stool. The morphological changes in the stomach and duodenum preserved in 37% of cases: was present lymphoplasmocytic infiltration of gastric mucous and atrophy in 9%. These changes were positively correlated with the identification of CagA factor. Changes in the motor-evacuation function of the stomach were characterized by disturbances in the anthro-duodenal regulation in 25% of children and positively correlated with disorders of acid-neutralizing function.

Abstract:

AbstractIn November 1966 composer and improviser Bill Dixon recorded a seventeen-minute-long “voice letter” to jazz writer Frank Kofsky. This letter may be analyzed as a critical intervention by Dixon, an attempt to change the context of interpretation around improvised music. But the voice letter may also be heard and analyzed as a kind of performance. As Dixon speaks, one can hear the rumbling and roar of the city as well as the staccato sounds of car and truck horns unfolding in dynamic counterpoint to his words. In this essay, I put the voice letter into dialogue with Dixon's personal history, his writings and interview statements, and some of his contemporaneous musical and multi-generic projects, especially his collaboration with dancer and choreographer Judith Dunn. I show how the letter maps Dixon's and Dunn's positions within a geography of intellectual circles, experimental artistic communities, and low-wage employment networks. By extension, I examine how the voice letter, as critical intervention and performance, points us to a nuanced understanding of black experimental music of the 1960s as a socially inflected, self-conscious and, ultimately, serious engagement with various modes of artistic production and thought, carried out under conditions of both precarity and inspiration.

Abstract:

Aim of investigation: to assess the effectiveness and tolerance of dietary supplements (BAA) STIM and STIM LaxMaterials and methods: The analysis of the treatment of 73 patients who were divided into 2 groups. Group 1-32 patients with functional constipation (8 men and 24 women; mean age — 45.7 ± 12.4 years), Group 2-41 patients with functional diarrhea (19 men and 22 women; mean age — 41.0 ± 15,8 years). The study of clinical symptoms was carried out according to the data of an individual diary, using specialized questionnaires with a scoring of symptoms before and after the course of treatment, before and after treatment, the result of the carbolene test, the content of short-chain fatty acids in the feces was assessed. Tolerability was assessed by recording side effects and adverse events.Monotherapy was carried out with STIM LAX for patients with functional constipation at a dose of 1 tablet 3 times a day for 30 days. STIM for patients with functional diarrhea was prescribed in a dose of 2 tablets 3 times a day for 30 days.Results of the study: The results of the study showed that FC therapy with StimLax effectively reduces the frequency and intensity of symptoms such as difficulty / pain, discomfort during defecation, feeling of incomplete emptying, abdominal pain, time spent in the toilet and the number of failed bowel movements. We observed the normalization of transit time according to the carbolene test and an increase in stool frequency up to 5 times a week.Treatment of patients with FD with Stim led to a significant decrease in the intensity of abdominal pain, rumbling, flatulence, stool frequency, an increase in the time of the carbolene test and the normalization of its consistency.Adverse events were observed in 8 (10.9%) patients (4 patients with FD and 4 patients with FD). On the 3-5th day of treatment, there was an increase in flatulence, rumbling in the abdomen. A temporary decrease in the dose of the drug to 1-2 tablets per day removed these phenomena and the symptoms that appeared were resolved within 1-3 days. After that, the dose of the drug was gradually increased to the initial (effective), which the patients tolerated normally.Conclusions: The results of this study indicate high clinical efficacy and good tolerability of treatment with drugs StimLax and Stim in patients with FC and FD. In some cases, it is necessary to titrate the dose of the drug (downward), but this is not accompanied by a decrease in the effectiveness of therapy. The use of these drugs with metaprebiotic properties helps to modify the microbiota of patients with functional bowel diseases. With constipation, the number and activity of both lactic acid flora and microorganisms that produce butyric acid are stimulated; in addition, calcium lactate is an additional source of butyric acid due to metabolism. With diarrhea, along with the stimulation of the number and activity of the lactic acid flora, there is an improvement in the utilization of butyrate by intestinal cells.

Abstract:

The efficiency of the energetic network is a very import safety issue in the region experienced by the earthquake. High voltage disconnecting switches are important elements of the energetic infrastructure used to separate electric circuits (i.e. during repairs), which should not be damaged remaining fully operational. The aim of the paper is to show the results of the shaking table experimental investigation focused on damage mechanism of a high voltage disconnecting switch under seismic excitation. The real example of the two-column pantograph-type disconnecting switch was considered in the study. First, the tests were carried out by exciting the unit with the sweep-sine function. Based on the results, the structural dynamic properties of undamaged structure (natural frequencies, damping ratios) could be determined. Then, the so called rumbling seismic tests were conducted in order to determine the seismic strength of disconnecting switch according to the standards PN-EN 60068-3-3. After each experiment, the sweep-sine test was carried out so as to check the decrease in the natural frequencies of the unit. The results of the study show that the lower parts of the columns, which serve as isolators, are the most critical locations of the disconnecting switch considered. The unit was damaged due to failure of one of the rotational mechanisms installed at the bottom of columns.

Abstract:

A survey of complaints about infrasound and low frequency noise has been carried out. 198 persons reported their troubles in a questionnaire. Their verbal reports often described the sound as deep and humming or rumbling, as if coming from the distant idling engine of a truck or pump. Nearly all respondent's reported a sensory perception of a sound. In general they reported that they perceived the sound with their ears, but many mention also the perception of vibration, either in their body or in external objects. The sound disturbs and irritates during most activities, and many consider its mere presence as a torment to them. Many of the respondents reported secondary effects, such as insomnia, headache and palpitation, which they associtated with the sound mainly because it occured at the same place as the sound. In a majority of the cases, only one or a few persons can hear the sound, but there are also examples, where it is claimed to be audible to everybody. Typically, measurements have shown that existing limits (and hearing thresholds) are not exceeded. The investigation leaves the key question: Are the troubles induced by an external sound or not, and if they are, which frequencies and levels are involved? The feasibility of a study of this is supported by the results.

Abstract:

Purpose – The purpose of this paper was to investigate the impact of specific carbohydrate restriction (polysaccharides and disaccharides) in the form of the specific carbohydrate diet (SCD) in treating irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Design/methodology/approach – A female patient diagnosed with diarrhea predominant IBS was assigned to the SCD for six months. The diet occurred in phases and was advanced based on the individual’s tolerance level under the guidance of a registered dietitian. Quality of life was measured by a pre- and post-IBS severity score questionnaire. Gastrointestinal symptoms were measured by self-assessment of IBS symptoms using a seven-point Likert-like scale, with −3 = substantially worse to +3 = substantially better. Probiotics were consumed throughout the duration of the study. Findings – The quality of life severity score significantly improved from a severity of 315 (with 500 being the most severe) to 15. The initial symptoms from the first day on the diet compared to the total period for bloating, abdominal pain/discomfort, flatulence/wind, diarrhea, bowel urgency, stool consistency, stool frequency, energy levels, incomplete evacuation and abdominal rumbling were improved significantly (p < 0.0005). The SCD diet significantly improved the quality of life and IBS symptoms in a female patient with IBS-diarrhea. Originality/value – This study is the first of its kind to evaluate the efficacy of the SCD to treat IBS. The SCD should be considered a therapeutic option to treating IBS after fermentable carbohydrate restriction.

Abstract:

AIM: Based on the accumulated clinical material, this study aims to show the possibilities of diagnosing and treating direct inguinal hernias in children. MATERIALS AND METHODS: During the period from 2000 to 2020, 3221 children with inguinal hernias were treated in the surgical department of the Republican Childrens Clinical Hospital in Syktyvkar. Of the above group of children with inguinal hernias, seven patients (0.22%) had direct inguinal hernias. The above was confirmed by ultrasound examination. In laparoscopic imaging, a rectal hernia was defined as a recess of the peritoneum of a stellate or rounded shape in the projection of the medial umbilical fossa. Two patients underwent the Bassini herniation procedure. Two children underwent laparoscopic hernia repair with intracorporeal suture insertion. In three patients, hernia repair was performed using the PRMS method. RESULTS: Long-term results were followed up from six months to 15 years. Immediate and postoperative complications were noted. No recurrence of hernia was reported. CONCLUSIONS: When establishing direct inguinal hernia diagnosis in children is clinically determined in the form of a rounded, soft-elastic formation localized medially and above the Pupart ligament next to the projection of the external (superficial) inguinal ring of the inguinal canal. It is easily set into the abdominal cavity with rumbling and confirmed by ultrasound examination results. The most preferred treatment method for direct inguinal hernia in children, in our opinion, is hernia repair using the percutaneous internal ring suturing (PIRS) method.

Abstract:

Acacia gum (AG) is a non-viscous soluble fiber that is easily incorporated into beverages and foods. To determine its physiological effects in healthy human subjects, we fed 0, 20, and 40 g of acacia gum in orange juice along with a bagel and cream cheese after a 12 h fast and compared satiety, glycemic response, gastrointestinal tolerance, and food intake among treatments. Subjects (n = 48) reported less hunger and greater fullness at 15 min (p = 0.019 and 0.003, respectively) and 240 min (p = 0.036 and 0.05, respectively) after breakfast with the 40 g fiber treatment. They also reported being more satisfied at 15 min (p = 0.011) and less hungry with the 40 g fiber treatment at 30 min (p = 0.012). Subjects reported more bloating, flatulence, and GI rumbling on the 40 g fiber treatment compared to control, although values for GI tolerance were all low with AG treatment. No significant differences were found in area under the curve (AUC) or change from baseline for blood glucose response, although actual blood glucose with 20 g fiber at 30 min was significantly less than control. Individuals varied greatly in their postprandial glucose response to all treatments. AG improves satiety response and may lower peak glucose response at certain timepoints, and it is well tolerated in healthy human subjects. AG can be added to beverages and foods in doses that can help meet fiber recommendations.

Abstract:

The aim: Evaluation of the effectiveness of the biotherapeutic agent Saccharomyces boulardii in the treatment complex of patients with clinical manifestations of dysbiosis and/or signs of enteric insufficiency refractory to previous therapy, to develop ways for their medical correction. Materials and methods: The study included 209 patients, treated during 2018-2020, grouped into main and the comparison group. The main group was divided into subgroups depending on the nosological form of the underlying disease: surgical – 36, general therapeutic – 58, gynecological – 47 patients. Main group treatment was supplemented with Saccharomyces boulardii for 10-14 days from the first day of inclusion of patients in the observation group. Results: The analysis of motor-evacuation disorders verified flatulence in 89.47%, localized epigastric pain in 22.48%, diarrhea in 55.02%, and constipation in 11.48% of cases. Based on the results of laboratory parameters, an absolute increase in the number of leukocytes in the range from 12.4 ± 1.8 x 109 / l to 14.7 ± 2.8 x 109 / l with a neutrophilic formula shift, bilirubinemia to 54.4 ± 12.2 mmol / l , elevated levels of urea to 14.7 ± 3.9 and creatinine to 0.199 ± 0.07 mmol / L. Conclusions: After completion of the treatment course (main group), a significant (p <0.05) improvement in the general condition (decrease in stool frequency within 1–4 times (2.3 ± 0.28) per day, the absence of rumbling, flatulence and pain in abdomen) in 131 (92.9%) of 141 patients included in the study was stated. Clinical improvement was confirmed by bacteriological studies of copro-culture.

Abstract:

Abstract In his 1913 manifesto “L'arte dei rumori” (The Art of Noises), Futurist painter Luigi Russolo exhorted readers to “walk across a great modern metropolis with ears more attentive than eyes.” For Russolo, attentive listening to the urban environment enacted a visionary aurality: the city was a mine for “new” noises, such as rumbling motors and jolting trams. However, Russolo's embrace of noise—much like that of Futurist painter Umberto Boccioni and Futurist poet Filippo Tommaso Marinetti—was undeniably a product of its time and place. This article excavates the sounds of 1913 Milan as a crucial location for the noises of early Italian Futurism. Not only was this city the Futurists' base, but it also inflected their representations of noise both through its symbolic architectural sites (above all the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele) and the buzz of its human multitudes. In this latter respect, late-nineteenth-century positivist crowd psychology can provide an illuminating context because it shares with Futurism the notion of modern, urban crowd united by a collective unconscious—one that could, moreover, be heard by the attentive listener on a city's streets. This article tracks this historical mode of listening from Russolo's manifesto until the reception of his first concert for an entire orchestra of newly wrought noise intoners—his “Gran concerto per intonarumori,” held at Milan's Teatro Dal Verme in 1914—and explores what was, in this case, a slippery (but critical) distinction between “audience” and “crowd.” Russolo's clamorously received premiere forced its listeners and performers to attend to off- (rather than on-) stage noises, thus raising still-vital questions about where to locate Futurism's noise, influence, and politics.

Abstract:

Sugar-free confectionery products containing the low-energy, non-cariogenic sweetener isomalt are widely available in the market place and increasingly aimed at children. However, over-consumption of such products may lead to gastrointestinal symptoms and/or osmotic diarrhoea. Little is known about the gastrointestinal tolerance of children following consumption of isomalt. The aim of the present study was to assess gastrointestinal symptoms in children following consumption of sugar-free confectionery containing isomalt compared with sweets containing sucrose. In a double-blind, randomised, controlled, crossover study, sixty-seven children aged 6–9 years ingested 25 g hard-boiled sweets containing either sucrose or isomalt on two consecutive test days. Isomalt sweets were received as enthusiastically as sucrose sweets and, when given the choice, 97 % of children asked to be given the isomalt or the sucrose sweets on the second test day. Most children did not report multiple symptoms and few experienced symptoms on both days of isomalt consumption. However, significantly more children reported stomach-ache (P<0·01), abdominal rumbling (P<0·025) and passing watery faeces (P<0·001) following consumption of isomalt sweets compared with sucrose sweets. Consumption of 25 g isomalt-containing sweets by children is not associated with significant gastrointestinal effects graded as ‘considerably more than usual’ or multiple symptoms, but is associated with a laxative effect and increase in symptoms graded as ‘slightly more than usual’. For the majority of children in the present study, 25 g isomalt-containing sweets represents an acceptable level of consumption, although some children are sensitive to the effects of isomalt ingestion.

Full text

Abstract:

Background. Minor digestive symptoms are common and dietary approaches such as probiotic administration or fibre and fermentable carbohydrate intake adjustments are often recommended. A Fermented Milk Product (FMP) containing Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis CNCM I-2494 and lactic acid bacteria has been shown to improve digestive symptoms after 4 weeks of consumption, but the speed of onset of this effect and its dependence on fibre intake or physical activity is unknown. To answer these questions, data from two previously published trials on FMP for minor digestive symptoms were combined. Methods. In total, 538 participants provided weekly assessments of bloating, abdominal pain/discomfort, flatulence, borborygmi/rumbling stomach from which a composite score was calculated. At baseline in one study (n = 336), dietary fibre consumption was recorded and physical activity classified as high, moderate or low. The speed of the FMP’s effect was assessed by a repeated measure analysis of variance measuring the change from baseline for the composite score of digestive symptoms. Results. FMP consumption resulted in a significant decrease in the composite score of symptoms after only 2 weeks in both studies and the pooled data at week 1 (−0.35 [−0.69, 0.00]; p = 0.05), week 2 (−0.66 [−1.04, −0.27]; p < 0.001), week 3 (−0.49 [−0.89, −0.10]; p = 0.01) and week 4 (−0.46 [−0.88, −0.04]; p = 0.03). The interactions fibre intake-by-product group, physical activity-by-product group and time-by-product group were not statistically significant. Conclusion. FMP consumption leads to a rapid improvement in symptoms which is likely to encourage adherence to this dietary intervention. This effect is independent of dietary fibre and physical activity.

Abstract:

Import substitution policy replaced the model of export-oriented agricultural economy that existed in Argentina during the period of 1870–1929. Its mechanism was relatively simple: agricultural products, for which the country had optimal natural conditions, were exported to the external markets, while wide range of industrial products, machinery and equipment were imported. Exports generated substantial revenues (providing a lion's share of state income), and the imports quite satisfied domestic demand for capital and consumer goods. The history of import substitution policy in Argentina can be divided into two stages. At the first stage (1930–1952), the government created its basic tools with a stress on development of labor-intensive light industries whose products were intended to meet domestic consumer demand. During the second phase (1953–1976), Argentine political establishment, not satisfied with the results achieved in the previous period, initiated the policy of “super industrialization”, namely, the creation or expansion of basic capital-intensive industries: metallurgy, machinery, chemicals and petrochemicals, energy. In these years domestic production of machinery and equipment for agriculture and light industry, durables, pharmaceuticals increased dramatically, the national military-industrial complex, scientific and technical sectors were created. In other words, Argentine’s policy of import substitution created a new frame of economic relations. It brought both positive and negative results which fully showed up in mid 70s. Since then, the crisis of import substitution policy became especially evident amidst the world process of globalization and dynamic formation of worldwide value-added chains. Argentina found itself largely isolated from these trends and came into clinch with the changing external conditions. So, under the rumbling populist and nationalist rhetoric it proceeded into the prolonged recession.

Abstract:

The results of investigations of the influence of the long application of systems of main soil and fertilizer treatment on the quantitative indices of the weed component of soybean agrocenosis are described. The research was conducted in the four-field crop rotation of stationary experience in 2009-2016. It was found that the unploded system of main treatment compared with the plow, led to an increase in the number of weeds by 89% in mineral fertilizers and 104% in the organo-mineral. Vegetative crude mass of weeds on unplugged systems increased, comparatively with plow, on the background of mineral fertilizers by 46% and 44% on organo-mineral. Against the background of mineral fertilizers, the total number of weeds was less than in the organomineral at 36%, vegetative crude mass - less by 18%. In non-branch systems, the number of species increased in comparison with the plow by 20% against the background of minerals and by 18% against the background of organo-mineral fertilizers. On both fertilizer backgrounds, there is a steady increase in the number of mature and wintering species in non-seeded systems. The most common species of weed - bluish weed - 49% of the total weed in the background of mineral fertilizers and 45% on the background of organomineral. In total 13 species of weed have been detected in agrocenosis. The most favorable for soya phytosanitary state of crops, both in the background of mineral and organo-mineral fertilizers, was created under the plow system of the main soil cultivation, which included discarding the stubble of the predecessor on 10-12 sm immediately afterwards at abrupt rumbling and sputum at 25-27 sm in 10-12 days.

Abstract Objectives To determine 1) the relationships between gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms and State and Trait anxiety in college students during the COVID-19 pandemic and 2) sex differences in GI symptoms and State and Trait anxiety. Methods College students (n = 459; aged 18–23) at a midwestern university completed an online survey in mid-April 2020, which included the State and Trait Inventory for Cognitive and Somatic Anxiety (STICSA) and an amended Gastrointestinal Symptoms Questionnaires. Spearman rho correlation coefficients and Mann-Whitney U tests were used to analyze the data. Results The overall sample reported a mean of 5.61(5.43) of GI symptoms. Moderate to severe symptoms of abdominal bloating (31.8%), nausea (16.2%), passing gas (29.1%), abdominal rumbling (28.1%), abdominal cramping (20.4%), diarrhea (18.8%), and constipation (14.7%) were reported in participants. Females had greater GI symptoms compared to males (Females: 6.16 ± 5.39; Males: 4.01 + 4.46; U = 15108.00; P < .001). Females also exhibited higher total State (females: 40.60 + 12.79; males: 35.24 + 11.69; U = 15348.5; P < .001) and Trait (Females: 31.26 + 9.99; Males: 28.52 + 7.59: U = 16218.5; P < .001) anxiety scores compared to males. Higher GI symptoms were significantly related to higher State-Cognitive (rs = .476; P < .01); State-Somatic (rs = .525; P < .01); Trait-Cognitive (rs = .367; P < .01); and Trait-Somatic (rs = .500; P < .01) anxiety subscales scores. Conclusions GI symptoms and anxiety were prominent in our sample during the COVID-19 pandemic. Females exhibited higher GI symptoms and State and Trait anxiety compared to males. GI symptoms were positively correlated with State and Trait anxiety. It may be warranted to screen individuals, especially females, for anxiety when presenting with GI symptoms. Funding Sources None

Abstract:

Background. Infective endocarditis caused by the dimorphic fungus Histoplasma capsulatum is extremely rare, occurring predominantly in individuals with prosthetic heart valves and HIV infection. To our knowledge, no case of H. capsulatum native valve endocarditis has been reported in Asia. Methodology. A descriptive study was carried out at King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital, Bangkok, Thailand, in 2020. Results. A previously healthy 34-year-old man developed fever, umbilicated skin lesions, oral ulcers, hoarseness of voice, severe weight loss, and progressive dyspnea over the course of one week. Facial umbilicated papules, nodular ulcers in his tongue and palate, a diastolic rumbling murmur at the mitral valve, diffuse fine crackles in both lungs, and engorged neck veins were detected during the examination. Skin scraping of the facial lesion revealed both extracellular and intracellular yeasts with buddings, 2–4 μm in size on Wright’s stain. Transthoracic echocardiography demonstrated a left ventricular ejection fraction of 54 percent, severe rheumatic mitral stenosis, and multiple oscillating masses in the anterior mitral valve leaflet ranging in dimension from 1.5 to 2.4 cm. The HIV antibody test was negative. H. capsulatum endocarditis was diagnosed, and liposomal amphotericin B was administered. Due to cardiogenic shock, emergency open-heart surgery was conducted one day after admission. However, he died of multiorgan failure four days after the operation. The skin and vegetation cultures finally grew H. capsulatum after 1 week of incubation. Conclusions. To date, there has been handful of cases of H. capsulatum native valve endocarditis in non-HIV-infected patients. We report herein the first case in Thailand. Umbilicated skin lesions, especially combined with oral mucosal lesions, are a clinical clue that leads to the correct diagnosis of the causative organism.
