INTERTROCHANTERIC OSTEOTOMY FOR OSTEOARTHRITIS OF THE HIP

1 . Intertrochanteric osteotomy is valuable in the treatment of patients with osteoarthritis of the hip, giving a high percentage of satisfactory results. It often relieves the pain immediately, is long-lasting in its effects, and may even increase the range of movement. 2. There is no evidence from our figures that the extent of medial displacement of the lower fragment influences the result as judged from relief of pain, performance, and the patient9s assessment. Movement, however, is less improved if displacement exceeds half the diameter of the divided bone. 3. Our observations did not support the view that improvement is caused by a changed relationship between the upper fragment and the acetabulum. When measurements were possible the position of the upper fragment usually remained virtually unaltered. 4. Our figures confirm that in most patients relief of pain is immediate; that is to say, the patient is aware on regaining consciousness that his pain has gone, even though he formerly had pain at rest. Whatever may be the mechanism that relieves the pain, it acts immediately.
A Study on Level of Aspiration of High School Students

Level of aspiration is the estimation of an individual"s ability for his future performance on the strength of his past experience his ability and capacity, the efforts that he can make towards attaining the goal are consequences of his past experience, whether failure-oriented or success oriented level of efforts made by him in that direction, and his capacity to pursue the goal. This current investigation was also aimed to study the Level of aspiration of high school students in relation to the background variables such as sex, residential locality, medium of instruction and school management. The sample consisted of 300 high school students selected from Chennai city for this study. Level of Educational Aspiration Test developed by Dr. Yasmin Ghani Khan (1999)was administered to collect the data. Collected data were subjected to suitable statistical analysis and scores of the sample were computed. The result reveals that girls had higher aspiration than that of boys. The study further reveals that aspiration levels of English medium students are higher than that of Tamil medium students.

Aceptabilidad para la detección de anticuerpos contra el VIH en un grupo de mujeres embarazadas de Yucatán, México*

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the acceptability of a test for antibodies against HIV (Ab-HIV) in a group of pregnant women in Yucatan, Mexico. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A clinical and epidemiological study was carried out on 310 pregnant women at different health centers in Yucatan Mexico, from January 2000 to March 2001. A questionnaire was applied to determine information in relation to HIV infection and acceptability of the test. Prior counselling was given to all those who accepted being tested. RESULTS: The median age was 24 (range 14 to 42). A 64.5% had a basic education, 91.6% were homemakers; 38% of the sexual partners worked away from home; 15% said they had more than one sexual partner; 31% had leukorrhea at the time of testing and 69% at some time in the past. Ninety percent of the women accepted being tested for HIV and all of them showed negative results. CONCLUSION: The acceptability of the test was similar to that reported in the international literature. The cost benefits of such a test must be considered, but always within the values of prevailing normative and respect of human rights of women. Despite zero prevalence, we found factors favourable for HIV infection.

The Impact of Teachers' Personality on Students' Academic Achievement in Pakistan.

Teachers personality plays a significant role in accomplishing students educational achievement. Teaching and learning have a major part in creating a friendly and encouraging learning environment for students. In this context, the current research was conducted to explore the influence of tutors character on pupils learning and accomplishment. It was a descriptive correlative research approach. The sample comprised of 1,152 teachers and 2,304 students of 10th grade of public and private secondary schools who were chosen through a cluster sampling technique. The respondents were taken from 12 districts of Punjab, Pakistan. Two questionnaires; one for teachers and one for students were used to collect data. Teachers questionnaires were based on an adapted personality measure scale of John and Srivastavas Big Five Inventory (1999). The statistical analysis displayed no significant rapport among teachers personality and pupils academic success. The regression analysis and correlation coefficient showed that the dimension of agreeableness, extroversion, neuroticism, and conscientiousness has no correlation with students performance. However, openness has a significant correlation between students performance.
DEPLOYING NONLINEAR IMAGE FILTERS TO SPECTROGRAM FOR HARMONIC/PERCUSSIVE SEPARATION

In this paper we present a simple yet novel technique for harmonic/percussive separation of monaural audio music signals. Under the assumption that percussive/harmonic components exhibit vertical/horizontal lines in the spectrogram, image morphological filters are applied to the spectrogram of the input signal. The structure elements of the morphological filters are chosen to accentuate regions of the spectrogram corresponding to harmonic and percussive components. The proposed method was evaluated on the SISEC 2008/2010 development data and outperformed the baseline method adopted.
Teachers’ job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and performance in Indonesia: A Study from Merauke District, Papua

Teachers’ job satisfaction is of utmost important as it has directly impact on students’ academic achievement and their future career. This study aimed at describing the effect of teachers’ job satisfaction on their organizational commitment and job performance in the remote state elementary schools of Merauke District, Papua, Indonesia. Two problem statements guided this study as folows: (a) does teachers’ job satisfaction have a positive and significant effect on their organizational commitment in the remote state elementary schools of Merauke District, Papua? ; and (b) does teachers’ job satisfaction have a positive and significant effect on their job performance in the remote state elementary schools of Merauke District, Papua? Three quantitative questionnaires were administered to 105 teachers who are samples, purposively drawn from amongst 117 remote state elementary schools’ teachers of Merauke District, Papua. Results of the study revealed a positive and significant effect of teachers’ job satisfaction on both their organizational commitment and job performance in the remote state elementary schools of Merauke District, Papua. The results of this study might be worthwhile for the school principals and the educational policymaker at local government level as well to take some strategic steps of improving teachers’ job satisfaction in order to promote their organizational commitment and, in turn, to enhance their job performance in the remote state elementary schools of Merauke District, Papua.
Diffusion Tensor Magnetic Resonance Imaging for Differentiating Multiple System Atrophy Cerebellar Type and Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 3

Multiple system atrophy cerebellar type (MSA-C) and spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) demonstrate similar manifestations, including ataxia, pyramidal and extrapyramidal signs, as well as atrophy and signal intensity changes in the cerebellum and brainstem. MSA-C and SCA3 cannot be clinically differentiated through T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) alone; therefore, clinical consensus criteria and genetic testing are also required. Here, we used diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) to measure water molecular diffusion of white matter and investigate the difference between MSA-C and SCA3. Four measurements were calculated from DTI images, including fractional anisotropy (FA), axial diffusivity (AD), radial diffusivity (RD), and mean diffusivity (MD). Fifteen patients with MSA-C, 15 patients with SCA3, and 30 healthy individuals participated in this study. Both patient groups demonstrated a significantly decreased FA but a significantly increased AD, RD, and MD in the cerebello-ponto-cerebral tracts. Moreover, patients with SCA3 demonstrated a significant decrease in FA but more significant increases in AD, RD, and MD in the cerebello-cerebral tracts than patients with MSAC. Our results may suggest that FA and MD can be effectively used for differentiating SCA3 and MSA-C, both of which are cerebellar ataxias and have many common atrophied regions in the cerebral and cerebellar cortex.

Can Pre-Service Physical Education Majors Identify Learning Standards during Authentic Teaching Episodes?.

Only a handful of research studies have been conducted to determine whether or not physical educators or pre-service physical education teachers are utilizing learning standards in their teaching. While pre-service teachers are typically required to align lesson objectives and content, their extent of their understanding of how learning standards are implemented in actual teaching is unknown. The purpose of this study was to determine if undergraduate physical education majors could identify instances and non-instances of physical education teachers incorporating learning standards in their lessons. Pre-service teachers viewed a series of secondary physical education teaching episodes captured on digital video recordings. The inter-agreement (IOA) scores for 101 physical education majors ranged from 65%-82% for the four New York State Learning Standards and from 51%-98% for the six National Association of Sport and Physical Education Standards. The researchers found that participants had the most difficulty identifying New York State Learning Standard 2 and National Association of Sport and Physical Education Learning Standard 5, with IOA scores of 65% and 51% respectively. Both of these standards involve personal and social responsibility and fall within the affective domain.
Background Evidence fromcross- sectional studies suggests a linkbetween cerebral age-relatedwhitematterchanges and depressive symptomsin older people, althoughthetemporal associationremains

Declaration of interest None. Fundingdetailed in Acknowledgements. Cerebral white matter changes are strongly associated with depressive symptoms in older people (de Groot et al, 2000). However, the direction of causation remains unclear because most studies are crosssectional (O’Brien et al, 1996; Hickie et al, 1997; Steffens et al, 1999) and the possibility remains that both white matter changes and depressive symptoms are manifestations of a common pathological pathway, or that depressive symptoms pre-date the development of white matter changes. The LADIS (Leukoaraiosis and Disability in the Elderly) Study is a large multicentre pan-European longitudinal study of older adults without significant disability which was established to investigate the relationship between white matter changes on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and subsequent development of disability, cognitive impairment and depressive symptoms. We have previously reported cross-sectional associations between white matter changes and depressive symptoms in this sample (Firbank et al, 2005; O’Brien et al, 2006). In this report we examine white matter changes as an independent predictor of future depressive symptoms. We hypothesised that the severity of white matter changes at baseline would be associated with the development of depressive symptoms at 1 year follow-up, irrespective of known confounding variables.
Improvement of Lead Acetate-Induced Testicular Injury and Sperm Quality Deterioration by Solanum Anomalum Thonn. Ex. Schumach Fruit Extracts in Albino Rats

Objective: This study has investigated the protective role of a natural alternative, Solanum anomalum fruit extract in lead induced testicular toxicity in male albino rats. Materials and methods: Twenty-four mature male albino rats were used, divided into four groups of six rats per group. Group 1 (control rats) were given distilled water (10ml/kg), group 2 received lead acetate solution 60mg/kg, group 3 received lead acetate (60mg/kg) followed by Solanum anomalum (452mg/kg) and group 4 rats were given lead acetate (60mg/kg) followed by Solanum anomalum (678mg/kg) by oral gavage daily for 28 days. Results: Lead treated group showed significant increase in Malondialdehyde MDA (1.58 ± 0.09 to 1.90 ± 0.17 µmol/L of plasma) and decreases in Superoxide dismutase SOD, glutathione peroxidase (482.85 ± 53.43 to 247.18 ± 70.40 U/L of blood), total glutathione (1.11 ± 0.03 to 0.56 ± 0.31 ng/µL) (144.80 ± 7.00 and 122.39 ± 4.63 U/ml of blood), epididymal sperm reserve, testicular sperm count, % sperm motility and % sperm viability. Conclusion: Co-administration of Solanum anomalum significantly reversed the effect of lead with restoration of histoarchitecture of the testes. Solanum anomalum may be a protective modulator of lead -induced testicular injury.
CBCT analysis of impacted maxillary canines

Background: This study designed to shade light on the important role of CBCT in accurate localization of the impacted maxillary canines. Materials and method: Fifty two unilateral and bilateral impacted maxillary canines from 30 patients (24 females and 6 males) were evaluated by a volumetric 3D images obtained from cone beam CT. All samples attended to the specialist health center of dentistry in Al-Sadder City referred to CBCT by oral surgeons or orthodontists to detect the exact position of impacted upper canine in cases when there was no bulging buccally or palatally which aids to detect the exact position. Results: Mesio-palatal angulations had the highest rate (63.5%) followed by mesio-labial (19.2%), vertical (labial) (9.6%), disto-palatal (5.8%) and disto-labial (1.9%). The relation between impacted canine and the adjacent teeth regarding to the attachment was significant only with lateral incisor. No cases of root resorption of the adjacent teeth were recorded. Bilateral impacted teeth were found in 22 patients which is highly significant (especially in females), while unilateral impaction was found only in 8 patients especially in females. Impacted canine was more prominent in female whether unilateral or bilateral. Conclusions: CBCT imaging of impacted canines can show the following: presence or absence of the canine, angulations of the long axis of the tooth, relative labial and palatal positions and proximity to adjacent teeth. In short, CBCT imaging is clearly advantageous in imaging and management of impacted canines.
Air Bubbles Displacement in Yield Stress Fluids

The motion of air bubbles in a yield stress fluid is analyzed numerically using a 2D approach and the finite volume technique. The multiphase flow is simulated using the volume of fluid method (VoF), which solves the conservation equations of mass and momentum coupled to a transport equation for the volume fraction of the fluids. The effects of yield stress, bubble size, number and position of bubbles rising in a viscoplastic fluid confined between vertical parallel plates are analyzed and discussed. The results indicate that the yield stress has great impact on the rising velocity. In the case of multiple bubbles flowing vertically, it is observed that the displacement of one bubble influences the rising velocity of the others, causing them to approach each other. As the distance between the bubbles increases the interference is reduced and the bubbles begin to flow as single ones. When two bubbles are horizontally positioned, they can approach or move away from each other, depending on the initial distance between them. Furthermore, the bubbles shape is analyzed as a function of the governing parameters. It is observed that for lower Reynolds number the bubbles present a circular shape, but as inertia increases the bubble becomes ellipsoidal.
Gendered Career Pathways among Doctoral Graduates in the United Kingdom

While women form about half of PhD students in Western countries, previous studies have shown that female doctoral graduates are underrepresented in senior positions and have lower earnings compared to their male counterparts within and outside academia. Less is known however about the role of gender in determining the odds of securing a permanent position among doctorate recipients. In this study, we use data from the UK Doctoral Impact and Career Tracking Survey from 2013 to explore the career trajectories of doctoral graduates within seven to nine years after earning their degree. We find that in every observed time point following graduation (0.5, 3.5, and 7–9 years), men are significantly more likely to work in a permanent job than women are. Furthermore, gender gaps in permanent employment are particularly pronounced in the private sector and in non-academic occupations. Using a nested logistic regression model, we find that the higher propensity of female doctoral graduates to work in part-time employment compared to their male counterparts, in combination with other differential employment characteristics has cumulative negative implications on their likelihood of securing a permanent position.

381 Erciyes Med J 2019; 41(4): 381–4 • DOI: 10.14744/etd.2019. 54815 ORIGINAL ARTICLE – OPEN ACCESS This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International License. Özlem Karadağ Köse Usefulness of Dermoscopic Findings in the Clinical Evaluation of Beard Alopecia Areata Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the usefulness of dermoscopic findings in the clinical evaluation of beard alopecia areata (BAA). Materials and Methods: A total of 38 patients who presented with BAA diagnosed via clinical evaluation and 38 adults who did not have BAA (control group) were included. Their age, skin phototype, localization, severity, scalp involvement, duration of the disease, laboratory findings, and concomitant disorders were noted. Clinical and dermoscopic photos were taken by videodermoscope and recorded. Dermoscopic findings were analyzed according to the checklist described in previous articles for scalp alopecia. Results: Clinical severity of alopecia areata was observed as 13 (34.2%) solitary lesions, 22 (57.9%) multiple lesions, and 3 (11.1%) cases of total beard loss. According to the follicular features, white vellus and tapering hairs were detected 26 (68.4%) and 8 (21.1%) in the patient group, respectively. The difference between white vellus (p=0.001) and tapering hairs (p=0.003) was significant between the patient and the control groups. Other follicular findings, such as yellow dots, black dots, black vellus hairs, broken hairs, hair diameter diversity, and gray–white dots, did not show a significant difference between the patient and control groups. None of the interfollicular findings were significantly different between the two groups. Conclusion: According to our study, a dermoscopic evaluation is useful in the clinical evaluation of BAA. Detection of the white vellus and tapering hairs may guide diagnosing of BAA.

A Study of Base Drag Optimization Using Mass Bleed

Compressible base flows with mass bleed in a Mach 2.47 freestream have been numerically investigated to find a way to effectively control the base flow for base drag reduction. Axisymmetric, compressible, mass-averaged Navier-Stokes equations are solved using the standard k-ω turbulence model, a fully implicit finite volume scheme and a multi-stage RungeKutta scheme. Various base flow characteristics are obtained by the change in the injection parameter, which is defined by the mass flow rate of the bleed jet non-dimensionalized by the product of the base area and freestream mass flux. The results obtained through the present study show that there is an optimum bleed condition that base pressure reaches a maximum value for all afterbody configurations tested, consequently leading to a minimum base drag, when the injection parameter changes.
