Mahameru cultivar is high salinity tolerant cultivar. The previous study result showed Mahameru cultivar could tolerate 140mM NaCl, but Cilacap Coast salinity levels often reaching 200mM NaCl. A research of salinity stress on Mahameru cultivar at 200 mM NaCl have not conducted yet. Therefore to conduct the research of Mahameru at high salinity stress to obtained high salinity tolerant soybean cultivar. The observed variables are anatomy (epidermis thickness, the density of stomata and trichomes, palisade thickness) physiology (the dry weight of roots and canopy, the content of chlorophyll a and b) Production (whole pod, total filled pod, total empty pod, weight per one-hundred beans). The salinity treatment was 0, 50,100, 150, 200 mM NaCl given at three days before planting and twenty-one days after planting. The data of anatomy and physiology was taken at forty-five days after planting. The production data was taken when soybean plants turned brown. The result indicates that salinity affects anatomy characteristic of leaf, higher the salinity increasing epidermis thickness and the density of stomata and trichomes. Salinity affected the content of chlorophyll a and b. Higher the salinity increased the content of chlorophyll a and b. Salinity did not affect soybean production. Based on this study Mahameru cultivar is resistant to salinity up to 200 mM NaCl. The benefit of this research help to enhance national soybean production with utilization coastal land for soybean planting Mahameru cultivar.

Full textAbstract:
We evaluated a transcriptome using high-throughput Illumina HiSeq sequencing and related it to the morphology, leaf anatomy, and physiological parameters of Carpinus putoensis putoensis under NO2 stress. The molecular mechanism of the C. putoensis NO2 stress response was evaluated using sequencing data. NO2 stress adversely affected the morphology, leaf anatomy, and total peroxidase (POD) activity. Through RNA-seq analysis, we used NCBI to compare the transcripts with nine databases and obtained their functional annotations. We annotated up to 2255 million clean Illumina paired-end RNA-seq reads, and 250,200 unigene sequences were assembled based on the resulting transcriptome data. More than 89% of the C. putoensis transcripts were functionally annotated. Under NO2 stress, 1119 genes were upregulated and 1240 were downregulated. According to the KEGG pathway and GO analyses, photosynthesis, chloroplasts, plastids, and the stimulus response are related to NO2 stress. Additionally, NO2 stress changed the expression of POD families, and the HPL2, HPL1, and POD genes exhibited high expression. The transcriptome analysis of C. putoensis leaves under NO2 stress supplies a reference for studying the molecular mechanism of C. putoensis resistance to NO2 stress. The given transcriptome data represent a valuable resource for studies on plant genes, which will contribute towards genome annotations during future genome projects.

Full textAbstract:
Birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus L.) is a perennial dehiscent species with an indeterminate growth habit. Pod shattering has been a major problem as seed loss is high due to the continuous flowering and time of pod maturity. The anatomy of the pod plays a role in pod shattering. A change in the orientation of the cells in the pericarp in which unequal swelling and shrinkage occur and a lower lignification of the mesocarp have been considered as major causes. The relative humidity (RH) at the time of harvest is also a major factor. The critical RH for dehiscence varies with genotypes between 35 and 49%. Pod dehiscence is uncorrelated with plants grown to maturity under green house conditions and the same plants grown in the field. Management practices (timing of the harvest, clipping early in the season, misting, mowing and turning the windrow during drying, desiccants) have not been successful to control pod shattering. Shattering resistance is a character of high heritability and in Lotus is considered to be controlled by more than one gene. Breeding to reduce shattering through recurrent selection has been unsuccessful. Attempts to transfer the indehiscent seed pod trait from distantly related indehiscent species via interspecific hybridization, diploid bridge species, amphidiploidy, and backcrossing to birdsfoot trefoil, or similarly by interspecific somatic hybridization, have shown promise. The molecular approach has so far not been attempted but since genetic transformation can be carried out in Lotus, this avenue should be investigated. Key words: Birdsfoot trefoil, Lotus corniculatus, indehiscence, dehiscence, pod shattering, interspecific and somatic hybridization

Full textAbstract:
Surgical patients are at high risk of developing postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) and postoperative delirium (POD). POCD and POD are associated with increased morbidity and mortality and worsening functional outcomes leading to severe socioeconomic consequences for the patient and the society in general. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) offers a unique opportunity to study the anatomy and function of the brain. MRI thus plays an important role in elucidating the neuronal component of POCD and POD. Our aim has been to systematically gather MRI findings that are related to POCD and POD. Systematic searches were conducted in PubMed, EMBASE, and PsycINFO: MRI studies investigating patients with POCD as identified by perioperative cognitive testing or patients with delirium identified postoperatively by the Confusion Assessment Method. A total of ten eligible papers were included with a total of 269 surgical patients, 36 patient controls, and 55 healthy controls who all underwent MRI examination. These studies suggested that reduction of thalamic and hippocampal volumes and reduction of cerebral blood flow may be associated with POCD, while presurgery/preexisting and postoperative white matter pathology may be associated with POD. However, the evidence from these studies is rather weak. Future MRI studies are warranted to verify the current findings.

Plants 12, no. 11 (2023): 2212. http://dx.doi.org/10.3390/plants12112212.
Full textAbstract:
The common bean has received attention as a model plant for legume studies, but little information is available about the morphology of its pods and the relation of this morphology to the loss of seed dispersal and/or the pod string, which are key agronomic traits of legume domestication. Dehiscence is related to the pod morphology and anatomy of pod tissues because of the weakening of the dorsal and ventral dehiscence zones and the tensions of the pod walls. These tensions are produced by the differential mechanical properties of lignified and non-lignified tissues and changes in turgor associated with fruit maturation. In this research, we histologically studied the dehiscence zone of the ventral and dorsal sutures of the pod in two contrasting genotypes for the dehiscence and string, by comparing different histochemical methods with autofluorescence. We found that the secondary cell wall modifications of the ventral suture of the pod were clearly different between the dehiscence-susceptible and stringy PHA1037 and the dehiscence-resistant and stringless PHA0595 genotypes. The susceptible genotype had cells of bundle caps arranged in a more easily breakable bowtie knot shape. The resistant genotype had a larger vascular bundle area and larger fibre cap cells (FCCs), and due to their thickness, the external valve margin cells were significantly stronger than those from PHA1037. Our findings suggest that the FCC area, and the cell arrangement in the bundle cap, might be partial structures involved in the pod dehiscence of the common bean. The autofluorescence pattern at the ventral suture allowed us to quickly identify the dehiscent phenotype and gain a better understanding of cell wall tissue modifications that took place along the bean’s evolution, which had an impact on crop improvement. We report a simple autofluorescence protocol to reliably identify secondary cell wall organization and its relationship to the dehiscence and string in the common bean.

Full textAbstract:
Raphanus raphanistrum L. is an important agricultural weed that often matures at a time of year when water availability is decreasing rapidly. We examined the development of the abscission zone under contrasting soil water treatments and exogenous application of Ethrel. Morphometric analyses of cell traits were used to quantify the effects. Although the abscission zone was visible in sections after 2 weeks under all water regimes, it was more distinctive for pods that had developed under water deficit and Ethrel application. Pod separation began on the outside and gradually extended through the inner cells until the pod was supported only by the xylem elements. The rate of weakening of the cells accelerated where pods developed under water deficit (both mild and severe) or were treated by Ethrel. Water deficit increased the sizes of cells in and adjacent to the abscission zone, doubling their cross-sectional area from well watered to severe water deficit. Ethrel, but not water deficit, significantly increased the thickness and the number of cells across the separation layer. Abscission scar diameter increased by ~50% with increasing water deficit. Notably, we observed some plants in which no abscission zone formed.

Full textAbstract:
Pod size is an important yield-influencing trait in peanuts. It is affected by plant hormones and identifying the genes related to these hormones may contribute to pod-related trait improvements in peanut breeding programs. However, there is limited information on the molecular mechanisms of plant hormones that regulate pod size in peanuts. We identified a mutant with an extremely small pod (spm) from Yuanza 9102 (WT) by 60Co γ-radiation mutagenesis. The length and width of the natural mature pod in spm were only 71.34% and 73.36% of those in WT, respectively. We performed comparative analyses for morphological characteristics, anatomy, physiology, and global transcriptome between spm and WT pods. Samples were collected at 10, 20, and 30 days after peg elongation into the soil, representing stages S1, S2, and S3, respectively. The differences in pod size between WT and spm were seen at stage S1 and became even more striking at stages S2 and S3. The cell sizes of the pods were significantly smaller in spm than in WT at stages S1, S2, and S3. These results suggested that reduced cell size may be one of the important contributors for the small pod in spm. The contents of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), gibberellin (GA), and brassinosteroid (BR) were also significantly lower in spm pods than those in WT pods at all three stages. RNA-Seq analyses showed that 1,373, 8,053, and 3,358 differently expressed genes (DEGs) were identified at stages S1, S2, and S3, respectively. Functional analyses revealed that a set of DEGs was related to plant hormone biosynthesis, plant hormone signal transduction pathway, and cell wall biosynthesis and metabolism. Furthermore, several hub genes associated with plant hormone biosynthesis and signal transduction pathways were identified through weighted gene co-expression network analysis. Our results revealed that IAA, GA, and BR may be important regulators in controlling pod size by regulating cell size in peanuts. This study provides helpful information for the understanding of the complex mechanisms of plant hormones in controlling pod size by regulating the cell size in peanuts and will facilitate the improvement of peanut breeding.

Full textAbstract:
Pod development of Colophospermum mopane was studied from its initiation until it was fully developed and completely filled by the seed. After fertilisation, meristematic activity in various regions of the pericarp causes fruit enlargement. The carpel symmetry and vascularisation displayed by the pods is of the follicular type. One dorsal and two unfused ventral bundles supply the pod. The funicle originates from one of the ventral bundles. The vascular supply of both the dorsal and ventral bundles is elaborate as secondary growth of a cambium increases the diameters of the bundles significantly. During early stages of fruit development the 3–5 innermost parenchyma layers of the mesophyll that borders the inner epidermis differentiate into small thin-walled parenchyma cells that differ considerably in size from the larger outer parenchymatous mesophyll cells. The inner zone of small parenchyma cells eventually differentiates into several collenchyma layers. At a later stage, the innermost parenchyma cells next to the collenchyma layers differentiate into sclerenchyma. As the fruit expands laterally, new vascular bundles continue to differentiate towards the centre of the fruit from the ground parenchyma of the dorsal fruit margin. The area of the fruit margin that is occupied by vascular bundles eventually becomes extensive. The xylem and phloem in the dorsal fruit margin are separated by a cambium. When the pod is mature the cell walls of the parenchymatous mesocarp become thickened and lignified, whereas the collenchymatous stratum becomes partly sclerenchymatous. The zone where the follicle eventually opens is characterised by thick-walled unlignified parenchyma cells between the two ventral bundles at the ventral suture. This unlignified zone is closely connected to the sclerenchymatous flanges of the ventral vascular bundles. The outer epidermis of mature brown pods consists of cells with thick lignified and cutinised walls. The mesophyll of fully developed pods consists of an outer stratum of mesophyll cells with lignified walls and an inner stratum of three or four layers of cells with unlignified walls. The unlignified zone is bordered by a sclerenchymatous stratum that originated from the inner mesophyll layers bordered by another sclerenchymatous stratum that originated from the outer layers of the collenchymatous stratum. The walls of the inner layers of the collenchymatous stratum remain unlignified. Between the sclerenchymatous and non-sclerenchymatous zone of the original collenchyma layers is a transition zone where secondary walls are present but they are unlignified or in various stages of lignification. The inner sclerenchymatous layers of the pericarp probably have a protective function. The inner collenchymatous layers may contribute to fruit opening under dry conditions. The usual method of fruit opening is, however, when the seed forces the fruit valves apart during imbibition.

Background: In this era of laparoscopic surgery, with the use of carbon dioxide insufflation in creating pneumoperitoneum for ease of trocar insertion and visualization of anatomy, it comes certain systemic changes in the patient due to the compression effect of the gas as well as resorption of it through peritoneum. Aims and Objectives: The aim of the study was to assess baseline standards of hepatic and renal functional status in pre-operative patients in comparison with post-operative patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). Materials and Methods: Cases were chosen among the persons who presented with chronic calculus cholecystitis to the surgical out-patient department of Ramakrishna Mission Seva Pratishthan, Vivekananda Institute of Medical Sciences, Kolkata. Pre-operative liver function tests (LFT) and renal function tests (RFT) values were recorded. Again, LFT and RFT values were evaluated on post-operative day 1 (POD1) and POD12. Results: Serum conjugated and unconjugated bilirubin, aspartate amino transaminase, alanine amino transaminase, urea, estimated glomerular filtration rate values increases immediate postoperatively on POD1 but returns to normal pre-operative levels on POD 12. Serum alkaline phosphatase, albumin, and creatinine values decrease on POD1 and return to normal pre-operative values in POD 12. Conclusion: Hepatic and renal function changes in the immediate post-operative period of 24 h following LC. This change is transient and returns to normal levels within POD 12.

 When defining each nervous disease, as a separate nosological unit, modern neuropathology lays in the basis of three main principles: anatomical-physiological, pathological-anatomical and ethiological. On the basis of the first principle, the neuropathologist, using the facts of normal anatomy and physiology of the nervous system, determines in the clinical picture of the disease, the evasion in the manifestation of the activity of individual nervous systems, nervous units - neurons. Determining which systems and which parts of them are affected, he sets the topical diagnosis of the disease. Based on the data of the pathological anatomy, the neuropathologist determines the nature of the lesion underlying the disease, and finally determines the cause that caused this disease, which caused the rapidity or slowness of its development, using the data of toxicology and toxicology in acute cases. But in spite of the successes of neuropathology, there are many diseases where all three principles cannot be strictly followed, since they represent a lot more controversial. These diseases are presented as a symptom complex, in the basis of which there may be lesions, extremely diverse in their localization, in the nature of the pathological-anatomical process and in ethiology. To the number of such kind of diseases belongs the disease, known under the name of acute ascending paralysis of Landry.

Full textAbstract:
Aim of study: To assess the role of polyphenol oxidase (PPO), peroxidase (POD) and indole-3-acetic acid oxidase (IAAox) during adventitious rooting (Ar) in semi-hardwood cuttings of the easy-to-root olive cv. ‘Arbequina’ and the difficult-to-root cv. ‘Kalamata’. Simultaneously, a histological study was carried out in both cultivars to investigate the tissue related with Ar development.Area of study: The rooting experiments were carried out in ‘Kostelenos’ nurseries (Troizinia, Greece) and in Agricultural University of Athens.Material and methods: Plant material to set up the experiment was collected from current year shoots from 15-year-old mother plants of ‘Arbequina’ and ‘Kalamata’ at three different seasons (summer, autumn and spring). The auxin indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) at 2000 mg L-1 was used as rooting inducer.Main results: Analysis revealed that ‘Kalamata’ had significantly higher enzymatic activities before experiment onset and during Ar compared to ‘Arbequina’. Control cuttings of both cultivars exhibited increased enzymatic activities compared to IBA treated ones. IAAox was on average three times higher in ‘Kalamata’ than in ‘Arbequina’ and exhibited significant peaks during Ar. Similar peaks of POD and PPO activities were also detected. Histological analyses in ‘Kalamata’ revealed a continuous sheath of sclerenchyma ring and increased cortex thickness. Significant cell proliferation occurred in the phloem region in ‘Arbequina’ 15 days after planting and afterwards the root initials started developing in the secondary phloem from cambial cells.Research highlights: The differences in enzymatic activities as well as in stem anatomy could partly justify the different rooting ability of both cultivars.

Full textAbstract:
The ovipositor appendages of acridid insects (grasshoppers and locusts) consist of two pairs of shovel-shaped valves that are used to dig a deep chamber in the ground for egg burial, to manipulate the eggs, and to assist in capping the egg-pod with froth. During oviposition the valves undergo cyclical opening, closing, retraction and protraction movements. These movements are produced by the contractions of ten pairs of muscles. The eighth and ninth segmental nerves of the terminal abdominal ganglion supply the ovipositor muscles. Rhythmical ovipositor movements are produced by the severed abdomen of sexually mature female grasshoppers. By comparing this activity to the activity underlying the natural behaviour, it was determined that the isolated abdomen produced the digging portion of the oviposition motor programme. Electrical recordings from the ovipositor nerves in the isolated nervous system showed spontaneous rhythmical bursting activity. This activity corresponds to the neural correlate of digging behaviour and indicates the presence of a central pattern generator for oviposition digging in the terminal abdominal ganglion of females.

Full textAbstract:
This study investigated the effects of green and red photo-selective filters (shade nets) on the process of graft union formation (healing and acclimation) in grafted tomato plants. The research evaluated oxidative stress, physiological characteristics, and anatomical development of graft unions. Plants were subjected to green-netting, red-netting, and no-netting treatments for 28 days, starting 4 days after grafting. Markers of oxidative stress, including reactive oxygen species (ROS), superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), and malondialdehyde (MDA), as well as protein concentration of SOD/POD enzyme-enriched extracts, were quantified. The anatomical development of the graft unions was examined using microscopy. The results demonstrated that the red and green photo-selective filters increased ROS production by 5% and 4% after 3 days of exposure, by 58% and 14% after 7 days, and by 30% and 13% after 14 days in comparison to the control treatment. The increase in ROS activates the defense mechanism, enhancing the activity of SOD and POD enzymes. In terms of anatomy, the green netting resulted in enhanced cell proliferation and early differentiation of vascular tissue cells. Notably, at the 28-day mark, when the plants were ready for transplanting, the green-net treatment showed a reduction in lipid peroxidation damage and increases of 20% and 54% in dry weight compared with the control and red-net treatments, respectively. Finally, our results suggest that the use of a green photo-selective filter has a positive effect on oxidative stress, anatomical development, and overall growth of grafted tomato plants during the process of graft union formation.

Full textAbstract:
Cocoa is one of important commodities for the economy of Indonesia. However, national exports of the commodity has declined due to decreasing of domestic cocoa production. For enhancing cocoa production, potassium fertilization is required. Potassium (K) is an essential macronutrient in the physiology, anatomy, and yields processes. Anatomically, K is needed in the elongation of meristem tissue as well as for increasing the yields of fruit and seed. The objectives of this research included the study of the effect of K fertilizer dose and determination of optimum K doses on root anatomy development as well as the yield of cocoa pods. This research was conducted on the cocoa plantation of PT. Pagilaran. Applied doses of K fertilization consisted of 0, 150, 300, 450, and 600 g KCl/plant in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with 5 replications. Observed variables consisted of root anatomy and yield of cocoa pods. The results indicated that the dose of K fertilization significantly influenced both stele and xylem diameters of cocoa roots but insignificantly effected the thickness of cork tissue, phloem diameter, and the thickness of cambium tissue. Moreover, the dose also showed significant effect on the number of beans per pod, the weight of 100 beans, as well as the fresh and dry weight of beans per plant. It was also revealed that the dose showed no significant effect on length, diameter, and weight of the cocoa pods. It implied that K fertilization dose had effect on root anatomical properties and yield of cacao.

The PICC and the affected hair follicles were characterized during spontaneously developed or induced hair cycle stages, using antibodies against MHC Class II,F4/80, ER-MP23, NLDC 145, CD4, CD8, γδTCR, IL-1 receptor, and ICAM-1. PICC consisted predominantly of macrophages (MAC), accompanied by a few CD4+ cells, whereas γδTCR+ and CD8+ cells were absent. During anagen and catagen, some of the PICC+ hair follicles showed variable degenerative phenomena reminiscent of scarring alopecia: thickened basement membrane, ectopic MHC II expression, MAC infiltration into the follicle epithelium, and signs of keratinocyte apoptosis. Loss of distal outer root sheath keratinocytes was detected in 10% of PICC+ hair follicles (0.2% of all hair follicles). Because PICC were located in the vicinity of the bulge region, MAC-dependent damage to follicle stem cells might eventually lead to follicle degeneration. These perifollicular MAC clusters around selected hair follicles may indicate the existence of a physiological program of MAC-dependent controlled follicle degeneration by which damaged or malfunctioning follicles are removed by programmed organ deletion (POD).

Full textAbstract:
Therophilus javanus is a koinobiont, solitary larval endoparasitoid currently being considered as a biological control agent against the pod borer Maruca vitrata, a devastating cowpea pest causing 20–80% crop losses in West Africa. We investigated ovary morphology and anatomy, oogenesis, potential fecundity, and egg load in T. javanus, as well as the effect of factors such as age of the female and parasitoid/host size at oviposition on egg load. The number of ovarioles was found to be variable and significantly influenced by the age/size of the M. vitrata caterpillar when parasitized. Egg load also was strongly influenced by both the instar of M. vitrata caterpillar at the moment of parasitism and wasp age. The practical implications of these findings for improving mass rearing of the parasitoid toward successful biological control of M. vitrata are discussed.

Full textAbstract:
The present study was designed to assess the morphology, anatomy and pollen morphology of six Onobrychis species native to Pakistan, aiming at enriching their characterization. Among the morphological features, stipules, bracts, floral segments (calyx, vexillum, wing, keel, stamen and carpel) and fruits along with seed morphology were studied. Consequently, for anatomical study slides were prepared and properly stained to assess their characters in stem, petiole, peduncle and leaflet. Among the morphological characters, the ones that significantly varied among the studied taxa were the shape and size of stipules, calyx teeth shape and size, color, shape and size of the corolla, ovary shape and size, pod along with seeds shape and size. Pollen grains were tricolpate, isopolar and radially symmetrical, prolate in shape and obtuse convex in general view. Exine ornamentation was micro-reticulate (O. cornuta and O. laxiflora), supra-reticulate (O. dealbata), micro-reticulate perforate (O. micrantha), micro-reticulate granulate (O. stewartii), and reticulate (O. tavernierifolia). Polar to equatorial ratio (P/E ratio) was measured from minimum 1.35 in O. laxiflora to maximum 1.65 in O. dealbata. In addition, ordination (PCA) and clustering (UPGMA) analysis were performed on measured pollen characters. Among the anatomical features, variations were found in the outline of the stem, petiole, peduncle and leaflet, the number of layers of collenchyma and parenchyma in the stem, number of vascular bundles, pith shape in the petiole and peduncle. In leaflets anatomy, the numbers of layers of palisade and spongy parenchyma were assessed in the studied species.

Full textAbstract:
Salix viminalis L., a dioecious species, is widely distributed in riparian zones, and flooding is one of the most common abiotic stresses that this species suffers. In this study, we investigated the morphological, anatomical, and physiological responses of male vs. female plants of S. viminalis to flooding. The results showed that the plant height and root collar diameter were stimulated by flooding treatment, which corresponded with higher dry weight of the stem and leaf. However, the dry weight of the underground part decreased, which might be due to the primary root having stopped growing. The little-influenced net photosynthesis rate (Pn) under flooding treatment could guarantee rapid growth of the aboveground part, while the unaffected leaf anatomical structure and photosynthetic pigment contents could ensure the normal operation of photosynthetic apparatus. Under a flooding environment, the production ratio of superoxide free radical (O2∙-) and malondialdehyde (MDA) contents increased, indicating that the cell membrane was damaged and oxidative stress was induced. At the same time, the antioxidant enzyme system, including superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), catalase (CAT), and ascorbate peroxidase (APX), and osmotic adjustment substances, involving proline (Pro) and solute protein (SP), began to play a positive role in resisting flooding stress. Different from our expectation, the male and female plants of S. viminalis performed similarly under flooding, and no significant differences were discovered. The results indicate that both male and female plants of S. viminalis are tolerant to flooding. Thus, both male and female plants of S. viminalis could be planted in frequent flooding zones.

Tematem niniejszego artykułu jest możliwość zawierania małżeństwa kanonicznego i cywilnego w Hiszpanii od czasów królów katolickich Izabeli i Ferdynanda do współczesnej monarchii konstytucyjnej. Analizę rozpoczyna omówienie możliwości zawierania małżeństwa kanonicznego w katolickiej monarchii Habsburgów. Drugim wyróżnionym w opracowaniu okresem historycznym jest okres I Republiki, w której to prawodawca, tworząc fundamenty świeckiego państwa, po raz pierwszy usiłował wprowadzić do prawa hiszpańskiego instytucję małżeństwa cywilnego. W kolejnych trzech wyróżnionych okresach historycznych, tj. restauracji burbońskiej, II Republice i Hiszpanii pod rządami gen. Franco, w tekście artykułu analizowane są przepisy umożliwiające i ograniczające możliwość zawarcia małżeństwa kanonicznego i cywilnego. Uważny czytelnik dostrzeże, że przepisy te tworzone były nie tyle z perspektywy prawa do zawarcia małżeństwa zgodnie z posiadanymi przez konkretną osobę przekonaniami (perspektywa prawa prywatnego), ile raczej ze zmieniającej się dynamicznie perspektywy ustrojowej w zakresie relacji państwo-Kościół (perspektywa prawa publicznego). Podejście to hiszpański prawodawca porzucił dopiero w okresie współczesnej nam monarchii konstytucyjnej.

Full textAbstract:
Celem niniejszego artykułu jest odpowiedź na pytanie o wystarczalność gwarancji wychowania religijnego w obowiązującym prawie polskim. Rodzice mają naturalne prawo podejmowania działań zmierzających do ukształtowania swoich dzieci pod względem psychicznym, umysłowym, duchowym, moralnym, światopoglądowym i religijnym. Słusznie znalazło to odzwierciedlenie w polskich przepisach konstytucyjnych, które uniemożliwiają narzucanie wzorców wychowawczych, kształtowanie postaw i przekonań dzieci wbrew woli rodziców. Również postanowienia umów międzynarodowych poświęconych ochronie praw człowieka nie ograniczają się z reguły do generalnego zagwarantowania wolności myśli, sumienia i religii każdemu człowiekowi. Zawierają też zazwyczaj postanowienia chroniące prawo rodziców do decydowania o kierunku wychowania moralnego i religijnego swego potomstwa. W zgodzie z tymi standardami ukształtowano przepisy polskich ustaw oraz wydanych na ich podstawie aktów wykonawczych. Niezależnie od wyznania wszystkim zapewniono w szczególności możliwość korzystania z nauczania religii w szkołach. Można więc stwierdzić, że prawo rodziców do religijnego wychowania swych dzieci korzysta w Polsce z dość szerokiej ochrony. Jej ewentualne niedostatki mogą wynikać z niewłaściwego stosowania prawa. Kwestia ta zasługuje jednak na osobną analizę.

Effect of EMS (ethyl methane sulphonate) on induced morphological mutants and chromosomal variation in cowpea was studied using five different doses of mutagen along with a control in randomized blocked design with three replications. The morphological mutants there are two types of viable and chlorophyll mutants. Viable mutant contains tall, dwarf, early maturity, late maturity, leaf mutants pod mutant and flower mutants. The frequency of chlorophyll mutant contains albino, xantha and viridis. This concentration can damage or modify important components of plant cells and have been reported to affect the morphology, anatomy, biochemistry and physiology of plants differentially depending on the concentration level. These effects include changes in the cellular structure and metabolism of the plants e.g., dilation of thylakoid membranes, alteration in photosynthesis, modulation of the antioxidative system and accumulation of phenolic compounds. The morphological and chromosomal variation was found to be mutagen sensitive in somatic cells of cowpea. It was found to increase with increasing the concentration of EMS in Cowpea plants. The chemical mutagen like ethyl methane sulphonate induces high frequency of chromosomal changes like anaphasic bridge; anaphasic laggard, anaphasic bridge and clumbing of chromosome were including control plants also observed.

Full textAbstract:
Tilia mandshurica is recognized as one of the most valuable timber, ornamental and nectariferous tree species, and its cutting propagation is very difficult. To evaluate the influence of ortet age on the rooting of T. mandshurica cuttings and the relationship between the variations of nutrients, enzyme activities, endogenous hormones and the formation of adventitious roots, a series of softwood cuttings of T. mandshurica were collected from 2-, 7-, 15- and 20-year-old healthy ortets, respectively. The rooting percentage, mean root number and total root length were investigated after 60 days of cultivation. Phenotypic and anatomical changes and the variations of organic nutrients, enzyme activities and endogenous hormones were measured during adventitious root formation. The results showed that ortet age effect existed in T. mandshurica softwood cuttings. The adventitious rooting of 2-year-old ortets was superior to that of 7-, 15- and 20-year-old ortets. No root primordium was visible in T. mandshurica softwood cuttings before cultivation, and the root primordia were induced after planting. The adventitious roots derived from vascular cambium and callus in cuttings. Soluble sugar increased during root primordium induction and decreased in adventitious root elongation. Soluble protein decreased during root primordium induction and increased in adventitious root elongation. Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity increasing and peroxidase (POD) and 3-indoleacetic acid oxidase (IAAO) activities decreasing were conducive to root primordium induction. High 3-indoleacetic acid (IAA) and gibberellin (GA3) level could promote root primordium induction and low IAA and GA3 level was beneficial to adventitious root elongation. Abscisic acid (ABA) and zeatin riboside (ZR) inhibited root primordium induction and adventitious root elongation. IAA, ABA and ZR coordinated with each other in the process of root primordium induction and adventitious root formation. IAA/ABA increasing could promote root primordium induction, and IAA/ZR increasing was beneficial to root primordium induction and adventitious root elongation. The soluble sugar content, PPO activity, IAA/ABA and IAA/ZR of softwood cuttings from 2-year-old ortets were relatively high, which may be the reason for the better adventitious rooting. The present study provides a reference to build a propagation by cuttings technology of linden trees.

Full textAbstract:
The physiological mechanisms and phytoremediation effects of three kinds of native quinoa in a desert mining area were studied. We used two different types of local soils (native soil and tailing soil) to analyze the changes in the heavy metal content, leaf physiology, photosynthetic parameters, stem hydraulics, and anatomical characteristics of potted quinoa. The results show that the chlorophyll content, photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance, and transpiration rate of Kochia scoparia were decreased, but intercellular CO2 concentration (Ci) was increased under heavy metal stress, and the net photosynthetic rate (Pn) was decreased due to non-stomatal limitation. The gas exchange of Chenopodium glaucum and Atriplex centralasiatica showed a decrease in Pn, stomatal conductance (Gs), and transpiration rate (E) due to stomatal limitation. The three species showed a similar change in heavy metal content; they all showed elevated hydraulic parameters, decreased vessel density, and significantly thickened vessel walls under heavy metal stress. Physiological indicators such as proline content and activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and peroxidase (POD) increased, but the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) and glutathione (GSH), as well as catalase (CAT) activity, decreased in these three plants. Therefore, it can be concluded that these three species of quinoa, possibly the most dominant 30 desert plants in the region, showed a good adaptability and accumulation capacity under the pressure of heavy metal stress, and these plants can be good candidates for tailings remediation in the Jinchang desert mining area.

Artykuł odnosi się do aktualnego zagadnienia, jakim jest ingerowanie w przedmiot czci religijnej, ujętego w kontekście odpowiedzialności karnej za przestępstwo z art. 196 k.k. W rozważaniach oparto się na znanych opinii publicznej wydarzeniach, które oceniane były w kontekście odpowiedzialności karnej za powyższy czyn (np. zniszczenie Biblii podczas koncertu, rozpowszechnianie obrazu Matki Bożej z tęczową aureolą lub ścięcie przydrożnego krzyża). Omówiono problematykę ochrony uczuć religijnych, znajdującą swój wyraz w kryminalizowaniu zachowań polegających na znieważeniu przedmiotu czci religijnej. W szczególności zwrócono uwagę na potrzebę szerokiego rozumienia przedmiotu czci religijnej. Znaczenie tego określenia nie może być redukowane wyłącznie do przedmiotów fizycznych. Należy przyjąć, że obejmuje ono również przedmioty w znaczeniu duchowym – metafizycznym. Podjęto też próbę odpowiedzi na pytanie, czy ingerowanie w określoną symbolikę i naruszenie kanonu, w jakim przedstawia się przedmiot czci religijnej, może stanowić przestępstwo obrazy uczuć religijnych. Biorąc pod uwagę stronę podmiotową przestępstwa z art. 196 k.k., wyrażono opinię, że odpowiedzialność karna w tym względzie jest możliwa. Rozważaniami objęto również tzw. kontratyp sztuki, którego przyjęcie ma prowadzić do wyłączenia bezprawności zachowań stanowiących wyraz ekspresji artystycznej i opierających się na wolności wypowiedzi. W tekście wykorzystano przede wszystkim metodę dogmatyczną, a w ograniczonym zakresie również metodę historyczną.

This study aimed at assessing the hybridization feasibility and evaluating genetic fidelity of the hybrid seedlings originated from Phaius mishmensis (Lindl. and Paxton) Rchb. f. and P. tankervilliae (Banks) Blume. Intra- and interspecific hybridization between Phaiusmishmensis (Lindl. and Paxton) Rchb. f. and P. tankervilliae (Banks) Blume were examined to establish the primary hybrid, observe their cross ability and identify the F1 hybrids using sequence-characterized amplified region (SCAR) markers. Self-incompatibility and cross ability of P. mishmensis and P. tankervilliae were tested before starting the breeding program. Results showed that they were self-compatible orchids. The interspecific hybridization between P. mishmensis and P. tankervilliae was achieved with the highest pod setting (80%), seed germination percentage (94.8%) and the rate of protocorm development into mature seedlings (stage 6) (10.6%), but the smallest size of embryo with width 46.5 μm, length 67.3 μm was also observed when P. mishmensis was taken as the female parent. A comparative study on leaf morphology and anatomy of plantlets regenerated from intra- and interspecific hybrids of P.mishmensis and P. tankervilliae showed a transitional character to the parental species. Herein, the presence of interspecific hybrids between P.mishmensis and P. tankervilliae, as well as their reciprocal cross, was verified using Pmis524 SCAR markers developed by the decamer primer.

Integrated biofertilizers such as Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPRs), cyanobacteria, and yeast can considerably improve the growth, integrity, and overall health of crops, including cowpea. In this study, we assess the benefits of applying microbial fertilizers as an eco-friendly approach to partially substitute chemical fertilizers while maintaining growth and yield characteristics in cowpea plants. We investigated the role of the three microorganisms, Bacillus amyloliquefacien (B), Nostoc mucorum (C), and Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Y), individually and in four possible combinations (B + C, B + Y, C + Y, and B + C + Y) as integrated bio-fertilizers on the microbial enzyme activities, plant growth parameters, and yield characteristics of cowpea. Plants inoculated with B + C + Y mixture resulted in significant improvement in dehydrogenase enzyme activity by 390%, chlorophyll by 180%, plant dry weight by 130%, and in the pod length and dry weight by 68% and 190%, respectively, compared to non-inoculated plants. The grain total carbohydrates increased by 170% over the control due to treatment with B + C + Y. The B + C + Y treatment also positively influenced the anatomy of the terminal leaflet with a 16.6% higher thickness of the midrib zone, 22.6% increase in vascular bundle length, and 42.4% and 33.5% increases in upper and lower epidermal leaf layers, respectively. Additionally, palisade and spongy tissues increased by 36.9% and 26.5%, respectively, compared to the control. An integrated nutrient management program using biofertilizers is recommended for achieving higher yields and environmentally safe cowpea production.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractTotal and regional deposition of inhaled electronic cigarette (E‐cig) particles in the respiratory tract (RT) depends on both physical properties of the inhaled particles and biological factors of users, for example, breathing pattern or puff profile, airway anatomy, and regional ventilation. Accurate particle sizing of E‐cig aerosols is essential for predicting particle deposition in the RT. Studies using a variety of sizing methods have shown mass median aerodynamic diameters ranging from 0.2 to 1.2 um and secondary count diameters in the ultrafine range (<0.1 μm). Incorporating these particle sizes into a multiple‐path particle dosimetry (MPPD) model shows 10% to 45% total lung deposition by mass and 30% to 80% for ultrafine particles depending on the breathing patterns. These predictions are consistent with experimental measures of deposition fraction of submicron and ultrafine particles. While box‐mod‐type E‐cig devices allow for full “direct‐lung” inhalations of aerosol, the more recent pod‐based, and disposable E‐cigs (e.g., JUUL, Puff Bar, Stig) deliver the aerosol as a “mouth‐to‐lung” puff, or bolus, that is inhaled early in the breath followed to various degrees by further inhalation of ambient air. Measurement of realistic ventilation patterns associated with these various devices may further improve deposition predictions. Finally, while in vivo measures of RT deposition present a challenge, a recent methodology to radiolabel E‐cig particles may allow for such measurements by gamma scintigraphy.

AbstractData are presented on a number of aspects of a drive hunt of a pod of long-finned pilot whales (Globicephala melas; Traill) which occurred in the Faroe Islands in July 1992. Empirical data collected by observers are presented on aspects of the drive and killing phase of the drive hunt. These focus on the welfare implications of the two main pieces of equipment used in the hunt, the gaff and the knife. The body zone targeted by the gaff ranged from the melon to the dorsal fin. Ten of the 14 initial uses of the gaff recorded resulted in the whale being insecurely fastened and entailed further gaff strikes. Five case studies are presented of towing times, before cutting occurred but post-gaffing, when the whale was secured by the gaff to a boat (median: 66s). The number of gaff strikes on an individual whale ranged from zero to four (median: two). Fifty-seven per cent of cutting episodes using the knife were initiated behind the blowhole, 43per cent on the whales ‘flanks. Data on the sequential use of the gaff and the knife are presented for seven whales. Data are also presented on the duration of the cutting episodes for these seven whales (median: 80s) and the total time elapsed from initial wounding until loss of voluntary movement occurred (median: 126s). Certain behaviours shown by the whale after the use of the gaff and knife are discussed and analysed in the context of the physiology, anatomy and social structure of pilot whales. Conclusions are presented on a number of welfare aspects of this hunt and compared with data from other whaling operations.

Full textAbstract:
One of the things that limits crop yield is drought. It has been demonstrated that silicon (Si) plays a significant part in reducing environmental stress in cowpea. To investigate the impact of silicon (Si) on plant development, drought tolerance, physiology, and anatomy, the cowpea white variety and cowpea brown variety were chosen. Two cowpea types were sown in each pot during the trial, which was carried out in August 2021 at Gombe State university. Four treatments—a zero treatment, silicon (Na2SiO3) in soil, silicon (Na2SiO3) in seed, and silicon (Na2SiO3) in water—were used in the experiment, which was set up in a completely randomized block design. Vegetative, physiological, and reproductive factors are among those measured. The cowpea white treatment's findings for the vegetative parameters include the greatest averages for plant height (17.2), leaf count (14), stem diameter (1.9), and trifolium count. The greatest chlorophyll concentration of any treated silicon variety found in seed is 0.68, while the highest chlorophyll stability index of any variety found in soil is 50% for the cowpea white variation. Cowpea white of the treatment silicon in seed has the lowest transpiration rate of 0.1 mL, whereas cowpea white and brown of the treatment silicon in soil have the highest relative water contents (91.4% and 89.7%, respectively). The cowpea brown treatment silicon seed's reproductive properties had the highest mean flower count (3.7), compared to the white type, there were 1.7 pods, 17.1 pods, 5.7 pods, 12.0 seeds per pod, and 49g of total biomass. The cowpea white variety benefits from the Na2SiO3's effects on physiology and vegetative parameters, whereas the brown variations benefit from it in terms of reproduction.

Full textAbstract:
Aspergillus flavus infection of vegetative tissues can affect the development and integrity of the plant and poses dangerous risks on human and animal health. Thus, safe and easily applied approaches are employed to inhibit A. flavus growth. To this end, the fungal endophyte, i.e., Aspergillus fumigatus, was used as a safe biocontrol agent to reduce the growth of A. flavus and its infection in maize seedlings. Interestingly, the safe endophytic A. fumigatus exhibited antifungal activity (e.g., 77% of growth inhibition) against A. flavus. It also reduced the creation of aflatoxins, particularly aflatoxin B1 (AFB1, 90.9%). At plant level, maize seedling growth, leaves and root anatomy and the changes in redox status were estimated. Infected seeds treated with A. fumigatus significantly improved the germination rate by 88.53%. The ultrastructure of the infected leaves showed severe disturbances in the internal structures, such as lack of differentiation in cells, cracking, and lysis in the cell wall and destruction in the nucleus semi-lysis of chloroplasts. Ultrastructure observations indicated that A. fumigatus treatment increased maize (leaf and root) cell wall thickness that consequentially reduced the invasion of the pathogenic A. flavus. It was also interesting that the infected seedlings recovered after being treated with A. fumigatus, as it was observed in growth characteristics and photosynthetic pigments. Moreover, infected maize plants showed increased oxidative stress (lipid peroxidation and H2O2), which was significantly mitigated by A. fumigatus treatment. This mitigation was at least partially explained by inducing the antioxidant defense system, i.e., increased phenols and proline levels (23.3 and 31.17%, respectively) and POD, PPO, SOD and CAT enzymes activity (29.50, 57.58, 32.14 and 29.52%, respectively). Overall, our study suggests that endophytic A. fumigatus treatment could be commercially used for the safe control of aflatoxins production and for inducing biotic stress tolerance of A. flavus-infected maize plants.

Full textAbstract:
The compensatory growth and defensive capabilities of woody plants after damage are crucial to their large-scale promotion and economic value. Here, Popular talassica × Popular euphratica were subjected to artificial defoliation treatments that simulated leaf damage [25% (D25), 50% (D50), and 75% (D75) leaf removal] to study the growth, anatomical, and physiological characteristics. The results showed that D25 and D50 treatments significantly increased the growth parameters, such as leaf length, leaf area, and specific leaf area, but did not affect the distributions of root and stem biomasses compared with the CK. However, the D75 treatment significantly decreased most growth parameters. The time required for the chlorophyll content to recover increased along with the damage intensity as follows: D25, high-flat-high; D50, low-high-flat; and D75, low-flat-high. Furthermore, leaf damage significantly reduced stomatal density, whereas the stomatal width, area, opening, and Pn significantly increased by 8.59%, 8.40%, 23.27%, and 31.22%, respectively, under the D50 treatment, generating a photosynthetic compensation response. The leaf anatomical parameters increased along with damage intensity, except spongy tissue thickness, which decreased, while the stem anatomical parameters showed trends of first increasing and then decreasing, reaching maxima under the D50 treatment. The enzymes showed an increasing and then decreasing trend as the damage time increased. After 1 d of treatment, CAT, POD, and PAL activities peak at D75, in contrast to a peak of SOD activity at D50. Overall, these findings indicate that it is advisable to keep the amount of leaf damage within 50%. The leaf damage can have an impact on the growth of P. talassica × P. euphratica. They adjusted their resource allocation strategy and physiological defense capacity by increasing the chlorophyll content, improving photosynthetic capacity, changing stem and leaf anatomy, and increasing defense enzyme activity levels, thereby improving their damage tolerance and adaptability.

Full textAbstract:
The global shortage of high-quality forage has significantly constrained the development of animal husbandry. Leveraging the complementary effects of forage rapeseed and hairy vetch intercropping can enhance forage yield and quality; however, the underlying mechanisms of overyielding in forage rapeseed–hairy vetch intercropping systems remain unclear. Over two years of field experiments, three cropping systems—rapeseed sole cropping, hairy vetch sole cropping, and rapeseed–hairy vetch intercropping—were investigated to assess the effects of intercropping on root and stem morphology, canopy light distribution, leaf photosynthetic physiology, and nitrogen metabolism. Our results demonstrated that intercropping increased forage biomass and crude protein yield by 14.3–20.0% and 30.7–92.8%, respectively, compared to sole cropping. Intercropping significantly enhanced root biomass, increasing lateral root biomass by 81% compared to rapeseed sole cropping. It also improved stem anatomical traits, including the cortex area (58.8–80.7%), cortex thickness (25.1–38.3%), number of vascular bundles (18.0–37.3%), vascular bundle length (17.8–18.4%), vascular bundle perimeter (6.7–18.7%), vascular bundle area (34.6–63.9%), and stem breaking strength (25.7–76.6%). Additionally, intercropping optimized vertical canopy light interception, reduced the activity of antioxidant enzymes (CAT, POD, SOD) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation, and enhanced the activities of glutamine synthetase and nitrate reductase, stomatal traits, and photosynthetic rates in the leaves of both crops. Structural equation modeling revealed that, in the intercropping system, improved population lodging resistance directly promoted nitrogen metabolism and leaf photosynthetic rates, ultimately increasing population biomass. In summary, rapeseed–hairy vetch intercropping improved canopy light distribution, strengthened rapeseed stem anatomy and root penetration, and enhanced population lodging resistance, leaf photosynthetic physiology, and nitrogen metabolism, thereby boosting forage biomass and quality. The supportive role of rapeseed in the intercropping system elucidates the overyielding mechanisms of rapeseed–hairy vetch intercropping, offering a theoretical framework for optimizing forage production systems worldwide.

Full textAbstract:
Background The endoscopic endonasal transcavernous approach is an extended approach for sellar masses with cavernous invasion with negligible complications regarding permanent cranial nerve (CN) palsy or internal carotid artery (ICA) injury. With a proper understanding of surgical anatomy regarding the ICA and its relation to the cavernous sinus, an endoscopic trans-cavernous approach through the anterior wall of the cavernous sinus with lateral and superior extension can allow for safe and efficient tumor visualization and removal in the inferior and superior CS compartment. The aim is to describe the technical nuances involved during the transvenous approach. Case Description A 67-year-old male with acute onset of left vision loss, headache, and left side complete CN III and VI palsy with large sellar mass measuring 3.1 × 2.0 × 5.6 cm extending to the left cavernous sinus encasing the ICAs with evidence of apoplexy. An endonasal transcavernous approach was done involving tumor removal from the superior and inferior compartment, resulting in gross total resection. Histological examination revealed a nonfunctioning apoplectic pituitary adenoma. The patient was discharged on Post-operative day (POD) 2 with partial palsy in CN III and CN VI and was noted to have a progressive improvement in CN palsy with complete resolution of ptosis and partial palsy of CN VI at the 3-month follow-up visit. Conclusion Pseudocapsular apoplectic plane identification, extracapsular dissection, identification of parasellar ligaments, and understanding of adenoma-cavernous sinus ICA relationship are key surgical highlights that we discuss in our case. The combination of these techniques, along with the use of intraoperative Doppler, helped us to maximize pituitary gland preservation, CN improvement, and gross total resection of a large pituitary adenoma with cavernous sinus invasion presenting as apoplexy. Future studies with endoscopic endonasal transvenous approaches with cavernous sinus extension for large pituitary adenoma with apoplexy are warranted to study long-term CN outcomes.

Full textAbstract:
Celem tego artykułu jest analiza przepisów, na mocy których odbywa się w Polsce po 1989 r. rewindykacja nieruchomości osób prawnych związków wyznaniowych upaństwowionych w okresie Polski Ludowej. Omówiono w nim zarówno tryby, jak i sposoby regulacji spraw majątkowych wyznaniowych osób prawnych, uwzględniając liczne zmiany stanu prawnego wprowadzane kolejnymi nowelizacjami przepisów oraz ewolucję ich wykładni dokonywanej przez judykaturę i doktrynę. Zwrócono szczególną uwagę na dyskusyjne kwestie prawne, w tym na nieuprawnione zróżnicowanie sytuacji prawnej poszczególnych związków wyznaniowych. Przeprowadzone w artykule analizy prowadzą do wniosku, że ustawodawca konsekwentnie uwłaszczył wszystkie wyznaniowe osoby prawne, stosując zasadę status quo. Zastrzeżenia budzą jedynie przepisy art. 60 ust. 6 ustawy o stosunku Państwa do Kościoła Katolickiego i art. 35 ust. 3 ustawy o stosunku Państwa do Kościoła Ewangelicko-Metodystycznego, zgodnie z którymi skarga na niewydanie przez wojewodę decyzji jest dopuszczalna po upływie 2 lat od daty wszczęcia postępowania administracyjnego. Wprowadzone do polskiego systemu prawnego przepisami ustawy z 1989 r. o stosunku Państwa do Kościoła Katolickiego postępowanie regulacyjne, powielone następnie w przepisach ustaw o stosunku Państwa do Polskiego Autokefalicznego Kościoła Prawosławnego, Kościoła Ewangelicko-Augsburskiego oraz gmin wyznaniowych żydowskich, a także w ustawie o gwarancjach wolności sumienia i wyznania, było pod wieloma względami oryginalne i nowatorskie. Stwarzało bowiem możliwość pozasądowego dochodzenia roszczeń z udziałem zainteresowanych – wyznaniowych osób prawnych i państwa. Z perspektywy czasu postępowanie regulacyjne można postrzegać jako instrument sprawiedliwości tranzycyjnej. Z upływem lat w wyniku zaniedbań ustawodawcy instrument ten stawał się jednak coraz bardziej niespójny z obowiązującą Konstytucją RP i wyznaczonymi przez nią standardami. Odnośnie do możliwości przekazania nieruchomości rolnych osobom prawnym związków wyznaniowych na Ziemiach Zachodnich i Północnych Polski nie ustanowiono terminu ad quem dla składania wniosków w przypadku osób prawnych Kościoła Katolickiego, ale równocześnie wprowadzono dodatkowe kryteria obostrzające oraz zawężono krąg podmiotów uprawnionych do przekazania nieruchomości. Negatywnie należy ocenić stworzenie w 2004 r. możliwości składania nowych wniosków rewindykacyjnych przez osoby prawne Polskiego Autokefalicznego Kościoła Prawosławnego, Kościoła Ewangelicko-Reformowanego oraz Kościoła Chrześcijan Baptystów w trakcie przekształcenia postępowania administracyjnego w postępowanie regulacyjne. Zasygnalizowane zastrzeżenia są w głównej mierze efektem braku po przemianach ustrojowych systemowego rozwiązania problemu rewindykacji nie tylko mienia związków wyznaniowych, ale przede wszystkim pozostałych podmiotów. Uporządkowanie stosunków własnościowych w Polsce, w tym również zrekompensowanie strat będących wynikiem działalności władz komunistycznych, mimo upływu 30 lat od zmiany systemu politycznego, pozostaje sprawą ostatecznie nierozwiązaną.

The Pipeline embolization device (PED) has become a very important tool in the treatment of nonruptured cerebral aneurysms. However, a patient’s difficult anatomy or vascular stenosis may affect the device delivery. The purpose of this article was to describe an alternate technique for PED deployment when ipsilateral anatomy is not amenable for catheter navigation.A 44-year-old woman with a symptomatic 6-mm right superior hypophyseal artery aneurysm and a known history of right internal carotid artery dissection presented for PED treatment of her aneurysm. An angiogram showed persistence of the arterial dissection with luminal stenosis after 6 months of dual antiplatelet treatment. The contralateral internal carotid artery was catheterized and the PED was deployed via a transcirculation approach, using the anterior communicating artery. Transcirculation deployment of a PED is a viable option when ipsilateral anatomy is difficult or contraindicated for this treatment.

AbstractFacial cosmetic procedures are doubtless in constant augmentation directly related to fillers and botulinum toxin injections. Many articles are published in the literature to warn about the complications of these aesthetic procedures. The need for a clear anatomic classification and review of deeper ultrastructural studies on adipose tissues in the midface area are obvious. This study aims: (1) To present midface anatomy of clinical relevance in a practical way for surgeons and cosmetologists. (2) To analyze the facial fasciae related to the fat compartments. (3) To show pictures of anatomic dissections of these anatomic structures. (4) To suggest an anatomic classification. The authors analyzed the facial anatomic layers and the facial fat compartments through facial anatomical dissections and experience in the field of facial surgical and cosmetic procedures. The authors propose a dynamic three-dimensional concept of facial layers related to muscle actions and facial fat compartmentalization in the midcheek area. A “lip–lid” superficial system associated with the malar fat pad represents the first layer; two deeper lip levator systems stratification explains the deep fat compartments as an anatomic division related to fasciae extensions. Facial grooves and segments correspond to these systems action. Moreover, the importance of ultrastructural studies has been underlined.

In recent years the scholars have stressed the role of anatomical collections and their histories as crucial to new interdisciplinary studies that investigate the interaction between arts and sciences. This could be attributed as well to the new exposition of Anatomy museum of Rīga Stradiņš University, that was opened to visitors in 2021. Museum galleries reveal the interplay between anatomists, artists and museum specialists, both in historical and contemporary contexts. Between the specimen jars and human bones, the anatomical drawings of both medical and art students are displayed. Sculpture-like life casts of congenital deformities made by anatomists contrast the ideal but skinless muscle man L’Ecorche Combattant. Historical artefacts interact with modern anatomical 3D illustration and multimedial solutions created by contemporary artists. No doubt, artists were and are important for visualising, explaining and displaying anatomy. But what about the role of anatomists in arts? This article aims to investigate an episode in the biography of long-time museum director anatomist and anthropologist professor Jēkabs Prīmanis (1892–1971) and his role in teaching the so-called plastic anatomy to the students of the Art Academy of Latvia.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract BACKGROUND: The pterional approach (PA), together with its variants, is still one of the most common methods used by surgeons to reach the anterior and middle cranial base. A highly important technical detail during a PA is the preservation of the frontotemporal branch of the facial nerve, which can be achieved through an interfascial dissection. OBJECTIVE: To describe the anatomy of the interfascial vein (IFV), highlighting its recognition as a significant anatomic reference to perform an interfascial dissection (IFD). METHODS: Eight adult cadaveric heads, fixed with formaldehyde and injected with colored silicone, were studied. In 6 heads, an IFD was performed, simulating a PA. In the 2 remaining heads, the IFV was dissected. In addition, an IFD was performed in 10 patients, studying the IFV anatomy. RESULTS: In the 6 cadaveric heads in which the PA with an IFD was performed, and in the 10 patients who underwent a PA with an IFD, the IFV was found. If the interfascial space is divided into thirds, in all cases, the IFV was located within the middle third of the interfascial fat pad. On the 2 cadaveric heads in which the IFV was anatomically dissected, the IFV was also located within the middle third of the interfascial space. CONCLUSION: Recognizing the IFV in the interfascial space is of great help as an anatomic landmark to confirm that one is actually between both layers of the superficial temporal fascia.
