External treatments for the space between the institute and the contrast in contemporary theater

Theater is a renewed art until this moment, and it does not stray from its components from life and its spaces in general, but rather is derived from them according to characteristics and directions intended to differ based on finding other, more effective solutions, Therefore, the research entitled (Extractive treatments of the space between tradition and contrast in contemporary theater) consists of four chapters. The first chapter came under the title (the methodological framework). Where he dealt with the research problem and then the importance of the research and the goal of the research as well as the objective, temporal and spatial limits of the research, In addition to defining the terminology and then finding the procedural term that the researcher deduced through his reading of the sources, references and opinions he reached. As for the second chapter, entitled (Theoretical Framework), the researcher divided this chapter into the following sections: The first topic: the concept of space in theatrical performance. The second topic: Tradition and contrast in contemporary theatrical performance. Then the previous studies and the results of the theoretical framework of indicators to conclude that chapter. As for the third chapter, entitled (Research Procedures), the researcher dealt with: the research community - the research sample - the research method - the research tools - the sample analysis entitled (women's playing). With regard to the fourth chapter, which is entitled (Conclusions and Conclusions), the researcher reached the results and then identified the conclusions he reached, and then put forward the proposals and recommendations, then a list of sources and reference

Responsiveness of sphingosine phosphate lyase insufficiency syndrome to vitamin B6 cofactor supplementation

Sphingosine- 1- phosphate (S1P) lyase is a vitamin B6- dependent enzyme that degrades sphingosine- 1- phosphate in the final step of sphingolipid metabolism. In 2017, a new inherited disorder was described caused by mutations in SGPL1, which encodes sphingosine phosphate lyase (SPL). This condition is referred to as SPL insufficiency syndrome (SPLIS) or alternatively as nephrotic syndrome type 14 (NPHS14). Patients with SPLIS exhibit lymphopenia, nephrosis, adrenal insufficiency, and/or neurological defects. No targeted therapy for SPLIS has been reported. Vitamin B6 supplementation has therapeutic activity in some genetic diseases involving B6- dependent enzymes, a finding ascribed largely to the vitamin’s chaperone function. We investigated whether B6 supplementation might have activity in SPLIS patients. We retrospectively monitored responses of disease biomarkers in patients supplemented with B6 and measured SPL activity and sphingolipids in B6- treated patient- derived fibroblasts. In two patients, disease biomarkers responded to B6 supplementation. S1P abundance and activity levels increased and sphingolipids decreased in response to B6. One responsive patient is homozygous for an SPL R222Q variant present in almost 30% of SPLIS patients. Molecular modeling suggests the variant distorts the dimer interface which could be overcome by cofactor supplementation. We demonstrate the first potential targeted therapy for SPLIS and suggest that 30% of SPLIS patients might respond to cofactor supplementation.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/162713/2/jimd12238.pdfhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/162713/1/jimd12238_am.pd

Hypermanganesemia with Dystonia Type 2: A Potentially Treatable Neurodegenerative Disorder: A Case Series in a Tertiary University Hospital

Importance: Hypermanganesemia with dystonia type 2 is a rare autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the loss of previously acquired milestones, dystonia, parkinsonian features, a high serum manganese level, and characteristic neuroimaging findings such as bilateral and symmetrically increased T1 and decreased T2/fluid-attenuated inversion recovery signal intensity in the basal ganglia. This condition is secondary to a mutation in the SLC39A14 gene. Objective: To present a series of three cases of hypermanganesemia with dystonia type 2, which was genetically confirmed secondary to a mutation in the SLC39A14 gene, and to describe the treatment and clinical course in these cases. Design: A retrospective case series. Setting: University, Tertiary hospital. Participants: Three unrelated pediatric patients with hypermanganesemia with dystonia type 2, genetically confirmed to be secondary to a mutation in the SLC39A14 gene. Exposures: Chelation therapy using calcium disodium edetate. Main outcome(s) and measure(s): The response to chelation therapy based on clinical improvements in motor and cognition developments. Results: All three patients were started on chelation therapy using calcium disodium edetate, and two of them showed an improvement in their clinical course. The chelation therapy could alter the course of the disease and prevent deterioration in the clinical setting. Conclusions and Relevance: Early diagnosis and intervention with chelating agents, such as calcium disodium edetate, will help change the outcome in patients with hypermanganesemia with dystonia type 2. This finding highlights the importance of early diagnosis and treatment in improving the outcomes of patients with treatable neurodegenerative disorders

Effect of Immunosuppression on the Immunogenicity of mRNA Vaccines to SARS-CoV-2 : A Prospective Cohort Study.

BackgroundPatients with chronic inflammatory disease (CID) treated with immunosuppressive medications have increased risk for severe COVID-19. Although mRNA-based SARS-CoV-2 vaccination provides protection in immunocompetent persons, immunogenicity in immunosuppressed patients with CID is unclear.ObjectiveTo determine the immunogenicity of mRNA-based SARS-CoV-2 vaccines in patients with CID.DesignProspective observational cohort study.SettingTwo U.S. CID referral centers.ParticipantsVolunteer sample of adults with confirmed CID eligible for early COVID-19 vaccination, including hospital employees of any age and patients older than 65 years. Immunocompetent participants were recruited separately from hospital employees. All participants received 2 doses of mRNA vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 between 10 December 2020 and 20 March 2021. Participants were assessed within 2 weeks before vaccination and 20 days after final vaccination.MeasurementsAnti-SARS-CoV-2 spike (S) IgG+ binding in all participants, and neutralizing antibody titers and circulating S-specific plasmablasts in a subset to assess humoral response after vaccination.ResultsMost of the 133 participants with CID (88.7%) and all 53 immunocompetent participants developed antibodies in response to mRNA-based SARS-CoV-2 vaccination, although some with CID developed numerically lower titers of anti-S IgG. Anti-S IgG antibody titers after vaccination were lower in participants with CID receiving glucocorticoids (n = 17) than in those not receiving them; the geometric mean of anti-S IgG antibodies was 357 (95% CI, 96 to 1324) for participants receiving prednisone versus 2190 (CI, 1598 to 3002) for those not receiving it. Anti-S IgG antibody titers were also lower in those receiving B-cell depletion therapy (BCDT) (n = 10). Measures of immunogenicity differed numerically between those who were and those who were not receiving antimetabolites (n = 48), tumor necrosis factor inhibitors (n = 39), and Janus kinase inhibitors (n = 11); however, 95% CIs were wide and overlapped. Neutralization titers seemed generally consistent with anti-S IgG results. Results were not adjusted for differences in baseline clinical factors, including other immunosuppressant therapies.LimitationsSmall sample that lacked demographic diversity, and residual confounding.ConclusionCompared with nonusers, patients with CID treated with glucocorticoids and BCDT seem to have lower SARS-CoV-2 vaccine-induced antibody responses. These preliminary findings require confirmation in a larger study.Primary funding sourceThe Leona M. and Harry B.

SARS-CoV-2 vaccination modelling for safe surgery to save lives: data from an international prospective cohort study

Background: Preoperative SARS-CoV-2 vaccination could support safer elective surgery. Vaccine numbers are limited so this study aimed to inform their prioritization by modelling. Methods: The primary outcome was the number needed to vaccinate (NNV) to prevent one COVID-19-related death in 1 year. NNVs were based on postoperative SARS-CoV-2 rates and mortality in an international cohort study (surgical patients), and community SARS-CoV-2 incidence and case fatality data (general population). NNV estimates were stratified by age (18-49, 50-69, 70 or more years) and type of surgery. Best- and worst-case scenarios were used to describe uncertainty. Results: NNVs were more favourable in surgical patients than the general population. The most favourable NNVs were in patients aged 70 years or more needing cancer surgery (351; best case 196, worst case 816) or non-cancer surgery (733; best case 407, worst case 1664). Both exceeded the NNV in the general population (1840; best case 1196, worst case 3066). NNVs for surgical patients remained favourable at a range of SARS-CoV-2 incidence rates in sensitivity analysis modelling. Globally, prioritizing preoperative vaccination of patients needing elective surgery ahead of the general population could prevent an additional 58 687 (best case 115 007, worst case 20 177) COVID-19-related deaths in 1 year. Conclusion: As global roll out of SARS-CoV-2 vaccination proceeds, patients needing elective surgery should be prioritized ahead of the general population
