Original Article Morbidity of metabolic syndrome in gynecologic cancers patients

Objective: To investigate the morbidity of metabolic syndrome (MS) in gynecologic cancers patients and explore the relationship between gynecologic cancers and MS. Methods: 359 cases of gynecologic cancers were enrolled as study group, 400 cases of gynecologic benign neoplasms were enrolled as control group. Clinical char- acteristics of the two groups were compared. Morbidity of metabolic syndrome in gynecologic cancers and benign neoplasms patients was calculated. Results: Compared with the control group, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, body mass index (BMI), abdominal circumference, the fasting blood glucose, fasting blood insulin, plasma triglycerides, HOMA-IR, morbidity of metabolic syndrome (37.60% vs. 12.25%) in study group were signifi - cantly increased (all P<0.05). The level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol in study group was lower than it in control group (P<0.05). Conclusion: The morbidity of MS in gynecologic cancers patients is higher than it in gyneco- logic benign neoplasms patients.
A Comparative Evaluation of Hypotheses to Explain the Black Hole Illusion

ABSTRACT Objective: This study comparatively evaluated seven hypotheses to explain the Black Hole Illusion. Background: Several hypotheses have been proposed to explain the Black Hole Illusion (BHI), with differing predictions. The Constant Visual Angle hypothesis predicts that short runways should cause greater BHI. Meanwhile, several other hypotheses predict that longer runways should cause more severe BHI. In addition, there is debate whether lack of ground cues promotes BHI via autokinesis or by biasing pilots’ perception of the runway. Method: Nineteen qualified pilots flew 27 simulated nighttime approaches in a fixed-base flight simulator. Participants flew under different combinations of runway length, starting distance from the runway, and starting altitude. We analyzed glideslope error, defined as a weighted sum of the error above or below a prescribed 3° glideslope, as well as RMSE around the approach path. Results: We found that pilots tended to demonstrate worse BHI effects during approaches to longer runways and when starting at low altitudes compared to high altitudes. Daylight and nighttime flights showed a similar variance around the glideslope. Conclusion: The constant visual angle hypothesis is not supported by our findings. We observed consistent glideslopes across starting locations and similar variance during day/night conditions, leading us to favor biased perception of the runway over autokinetic effects to explain the influence of contextual features on BHI.
The Logarithmic Spiral Neutron Guide

We present a neutron guide which is curved in the shape of a logarithmic spiral. Simulations and calculations for such a spiral guide are presented and the potential use of the guide for a reflectometer is investigated and compared to the conventional circularly curved guide geometry. We concentrate on the specific case of a beamport at the SINQ source. For this application, the spiral guide shows a 30% increased flux on the region of interest while at the same time reducing background scattering due to beam converging.
Prevalence of dental caries in school going children of both urban and rural areas in Mahbubnagar district, Telangana state, (India): An epidemiological study

Background: Dental caries is one of the most common oral problems affecting children globally involving the people of all region and society. It can be seen in all age groups of children involving both deciduous and permanent teeth. Dental caries is a lifetime disease, and the highest priority risk group is between 6 and 12 years of age. Aims: The aim of the study was to evaluate the prevalence of dental caries in both primary and permanent dentition among school-going children in Mahbubnagar district. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out in 2000 children in different areas of Mahbubnagar district in the age group of 6–12 years. The dental caries status was assessed by decayed, missing, and filled teeth (DMFT)/dmft index using the World Health Organization criteria 1997. Collected data from each patient are subjected to statistical analysis to know the prevalence of dental caries. Results: Dental caries in both primary dentition and permanent dentition was 64.2% and 26.6%, respectively. The prevalence of dental caries in primary dentition was more in 7–8-year-old children and less in 11–12-year-old children (P > 0.05). The overall mean dmft score of both males and females is 1.49 ± 1.56; the overall mean DMFT score of both males and females is 0.57 ± 1.23. Conclusion: The present study showed that the frequency of caries was found to be higher in Northern region of Mahbubnagar.

Lithium: A Novel Therapeutic Drug for Traumatic Brain Injury

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) has long been a major public health issue. Approximately 1.7 million individuals currently suffer from TBI [1]. A significant portion of individuals with TBI (up to 24%) suffer “sustained TBI” for many years [2]. A particular concern is that sustained TBI has a tendency to take a chronically deteriorating course as the acute neuropathology of TBI initiates progressive apoptotic cascades leading to chronic neurodegenerative disorders such chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) [3].
Impact of International Service Learning on Macro-Ethics:

To address complex problems in a globalized workplace, future engineers must understand the ethical implications of their work in the global context. International service learning is a possible approach for future engineers to gain an understanding of ethical implications in a global context. The purpose of this study is to investigate the potential benefits that international service learning may add to engineering ethics education. The quantitative study measured senior engineering students’ understanding of ethics from a national sample of students enrolled in capstone design courses (n=2095) in three types of international service learning experiences: capstone, volunteer/work, or co-curricular. Students who participated in international service learning through capstone and volunteer/work experience scored significantly (p<0.01, p<0.001 respectively) higher to questions that measured their understanding of ethics. Males compared to female engineering students showed the largest difference in their understanding of ethics. The integration of international service learning into engineering education should be more seriously considered to aid in more effectively teaching ethics. Male engineering students, who make up nearly 80% of engineering programs, can benefit the most in their ethics education from international service learning.
Planowana ciąża u chorej na przewlekłą białaczkę szpikową leczoną imatynibem

Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) used in the treatment of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) can cause disturbances in fetal development in pregnant women. Women of childbearing potential are recommended to practice effective contraception. Women who want to become pregnant should stopped treatment with TKI before and during pregnancy. The optimal time to stop treatment is deep molecular response after minimum 2 years of treatment. We present a case study of a 24-year- -old female patient with CML, diagnosed in myeloblastic phase. After treatment with imatinib deep and permanent molecular remission was achieved. Treatment was interrupted after 5 years in order to become pregnant. During pregnancy increase in BCR-ABL1 transcript was observed and treatment with interferon a was introduced. The baby was healthy. The imatinib was reintroduced, after 3 months deep molecular response was achieved.

The effect of routine lymphadenectomy of the hepatic basin on the duration of the liver resection due to colorectal carcinoma metastases

Background/Aim. Today, lymphatic metastases are only a relative contraindication for the surgical treatment of colorectal carcinoma (CRC). The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of routine lymphadenectomy of the hepatic basin on the duration of the liver resection for CRC metachronous liver metastases. Methods. A total of 50 patients with CRC metachronous liver metastases underwent the liver resection with routine hepatic basin lymphadenectomy. Results. Larger volume of metastases (in mL), the number of affected segments, and the number of metastases as well the diameter of the largest lesion (in mm), determine the duration of the liver resection itself and the surgical procedure overall. The duration of lymphadenectomy was 25? 55 min (32.2 min on average). Conclusion. Routine lymphadenectomy of the hepatic basin following the liver resection for CRC metachronous liver metastases, minimally prolongs the duration of the operation.
The effects of stimulant medications on children’s growth velocity

Objective: This study sought to determine whether relationships exist between stimulant medications and children’s growth velocity. Methods: The investigators conducted a retrospective review of 280 charts of pre-pubertal children with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) who were prescribed stimulant medications for a minimum of 1 year. The children were patients in a university child development/ADHD clinic. Results: The average growth velocity across all genders and ages was 5.72 cm/year (females 5.53 cm/year, males 5.28 cm/year). The majority of the children had growth velocities in the 25-50th percentiles for age. Conclusion: This study did not find evidence of significant effect on growth velocity in children with ADHD treated with stimulant medications. Our results concur with the majority of other studies of growth in children taking stimulant medications for ADHD management. It supports our continued prescription of stimulant medications without concern for slowed or stunted growth in our patients with ADHD.

Clinical features of unspecified functional bowel disorder in servicemen from a Chinese army unit

Objective To investigate clinical manifestation of unspecified functional bowel disorder (UFBD), the features of coexistence with functional gastrointestinal disorder (FGID) and its relationship with psychological factors and sleep disturbance in the Chinese Army servicemen. Methods cFGIDs were diagnosed based on the Rome Ⅲ Modular Questionnaire. The subjects were 189 servicemen with UFBD (UFBD group) and 372 without FGID (control group). All subjects completed symptom checklist 90 (SCL-90) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) questionnaire. Results 'Have to rush to the toilet when having a desire to defecate' was the most frequent symptom of UFBD (93.7%). More than one half of UFBD patients had the symptom 'a feeling of incomplete emptying as bowel movements' or 'straining during bowel movements'. Twenty-eight percent of UFBD subjects had combined FGID (namely cFGID). Among them, the most frequent was proctalgia fugax (7.9%), followed by cyclic vomiting syndrome (6.3%), functional fecal incontinence (6.3%), functional dyspepsia (4.8%) and belching (4.8%). The UFBD group scored significantly higher than the control group in the global severity index (GSI) and in all SCL-90 subscales (P 0.05). Conclusion Pathogenesis of UFBD may be closely correlated with psychiatric and psychological factors and sleep disturbance. cFGID are associated with an increased severity of psychopathological features.

Le contrôle des émissions de N₂O par l'état structural des sols

Les sols agricoles representent pres de 66 % des emissions anthropiques de protoxyde d’azote (N₂O), 3eme gaz responsable de l’effet de serre additionnel. La variabilite des emissions mesurees au champ est elevee. La structure du sol impacte a la fois la production et le transport du N₂O dans le profil de sol. L’objectif de cette these etait de comprendre le role de l’etat structural du sol sur la variabilite spatiale des emissions de N₂O. La demarche utilisee associe deux types d’experimentations en laboratoire - a l’echelle d’un bac de 0,3 m² x 0,1 m et sur une maquette de parcelle agricole de 10 m² x 0,3 m en sol nu - a un travail de modelisation integrant des processus physiques, chimiques et biologiques dans le profil de sol et le ruissellement, le tout a une resolution temporelle fine. Ce travail a mis en evidence une hierarchie entre les processus de production et de transport, qui evolue avec le temps et les conditions environnementales : dans des conditions favorables a la denitrification, la production de N₂O augmente avec la masse volumique en lien avec une augmentation de la part de porosite remplie d’eau, jusqu’a une certaine limite. Le modele deterministe a montre que la dynamique de la pluie et du ruissellement associe modifie l’intensite et la dynamique des emissions de N₂O, celles-ci etant plus tardives dans les zones avales recevant du ruissellement. Enfin, ce travail a confirme la complexite du determinisme des emissions de N₂O et a permis de souligner l’interet de caracteriser la structure du sol et les emissions a une haute resolution spatiale pour ameliorer la qualite des modeles predictifs.
Performance of Drought Indices in Trichy Region, Tamil Nadu

Droughts are regional phenomena, which are considered as one of the major natural environmental hazards and severely affect the water resources. Climate variability may result in harmful drought periods in semiarid regions. Meteorological drought indices are considered as important tools for drought monitoring, they are embedded with different theoretical and experimental structures. This study compares the performance of three indices of Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI), Rainfall Anomaly Index (RAI) End Palmer Drought Severity Index (PNPI) to predict long-term drought events using the Thomas-Feiring Model and historical data. For studies of areal drought extent, the 61 years (1951-2011) historical rainfall data of Trichy District were utilized to generate 58 years (20122070) synthetic data series so that the characteristics of long-term drought might be determined and the performance of those three indices might be analyzed and compared. The results show that SPI and PNPI perform similarly with regard to drought identification and detailed analysis to determine the characteristics of long-term drought. Finally, the RAI indicated significant deviations from normalized natural processes. Original Research Article Sathya and Lalitha; CJAST, 38(5): 1-10, 2019; Article no.CJAST. 42808 2
Effect of a wake on drag and deformation of liquid column at high Weber numbers

not been studied thoroughly. Additionally, this study examines the effect of the wake on the liquid column deformation. Although the drag coefficient of a solid sphere in gas flow is relatively simple and has been widely studied for a long time, it cannot be directly applied as the drag coefficient of a liquid drop in gas flow because of the deformation and disintegration of liquid drops and the internal flow effect. Hence, the drag coefficients of deforming liquid drops in gas flow have been measured. Hsiang and Faeth (1995) observed liquid drop deformation and breakup for shock wave-initiated disturbances in air. They obtained the drag coefficient from the trajectory of the center of mass for a liquid drop at a Reynolds number of 1000–2000. For this range, the increasing effect of the drag coefficient derived from deformation Abstract The objective of this study is to clarify the effect of a wake on liquid column drag and deformation for a high-Weber-number ( We ) flow. A simulation was performed for a liquid column with a high We behind a shock wave, using a ghost fluid method as a two-phase flow solver. The simulated We were 500, 1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000. Relatively large oscillation of the drag coefficients was observed for We = 500 and 1000. This feature of the drag coefficients was possibly caused by varying pressure on the downstream interface. The pressure variation is derived from the wake. In addition, it was suggested that such varying pressures could contribute to the flattening of the liquid column.
A Complete Guide on Crushing Tablets and/or Opening Capsules of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Medications

Abstract There are limited data regarding the ability to crush tablets or open capsules for antiretroviral agents. This lack of data is problematic when encountering patients who cannot swallow these tablets or capsules, especially for patients who are mechanically ventilated. Furthermore, many antiretroviral agents do not have an oral or intravenous solution available. The authors address this issue by reviewing all commercially available antiretroviral agents to determine whether they could crush tablets or open capsules.

Tourism Recommender System Using Item-Based Hybrid Clustering Method (Case Study: Bandung Raya Region)

The recommender system can be used to provide recommender for an item based on the highest. Therefore, the information recommended by the system can be as needed. The recommender system can help tourists to determine their travel choices, especially for tourists in the city of Bandung. In the recommender system there are two commonly used methods, namely collaborative filtering and content-based filtering methods. However, both methods still have drawbacks among them, in content-based filtering methods cannot recommend various items. While the collaborative filtering method cannot recommend items that have not been rated at all or cold start problems. The collaborative filtering method also cannot recommend to new users because new users do not have history. With the shortcomings of the two methods, the item-based clustering hybrid method (ICHM) is proposed to combine the two methods. The analysis was carried out by comparing the Mean Absolute Error (MAE) on several tests that have been carried out. In a cluster of 30 and c coefficient of 0.9, the average MAE value obtained is 0.2459 in cold start problems and 0.2488 in non cold problems. The smaller the MAE value is generated, that means the higher the level of accuracy.

The objective, of the research, is to know to what extent the informational dimension, which is part of the digital competence, is acquired by the students of that University. The methodology used has been a survey type, through the application of a questionnaire.The results of the research is that, despite the importance of access to quality information for university students, the level of the majority of the students in the sample, in terms of mastery of the informational dimension, is in process to achieve it and an eighth of them, has already managed to dominate the informational dimension.
Tongue harmatoma in association with cleft palate: Case report

Tongue hamartoma is not a common congenital disorder. Common associations include cardiac defects and limb anomalies such as polydactyly and syndactyly. Its association with cleft palate is unusual and as such only very few cases have been reported. A 15-month-old girl who presented to us with a mass on the tongue in association with cleft of the soft palate is presented. She had cleft palate repair and incisional biopsy of the mass. Initial histology was lipoma. The mass was excised a year later and histology confirmed lipomatous harmatoma.
Public Engagement with the #CampurLGBT Campaign as Portrayed by Malaysian Netizens’ Response

The purpose of this study is to examine public engagement with the hashtag #CampurLGBT campaign as portrayed by Malaysian netizens’ response on social media. This study applies AIDA model, consisting of four levels, namely attention, interest, desire, and action. Netizens’ response to the campaign, such as their comments, discussions, and even pictures posted under the hashtag #CampurLGBT are analyzed, in order to understand public engagement with the issue, also to determine how the campaign may influence their views on the LGBT lifestyle. This study finds that despite the campaign being successful in recruiting followers and supporters of the movement, the number of those supporting it is relatively small compared with those who are against it. Those who respond positively to the campaign are mostly members of the LGBT community itself, also urban Malaysian netizens who have been exposed to the LGBT culture through friends and family members. While the netizens who have shown their negative responses are mostly concerned with the practice of being prohibited in Islam, also with the negative health implications of the LGBT lifestyle. They feel attacked by the ‘negative messages’ of the campaign, and therefore need to do the counter campaign. They explicitly declare their negative desire towards the campaign, also take action to reject the campaign.Keywords: public engagement; AIDA model; #CampurLGBT; #TolakLGBT.
Against the Psych Causative Alternation in Polish

The paper examines Object Experiencer (henceforth, OE)/Subject Experiencer (henceforth, SE) verb alternations in Polish in order to check whether Polish exhibits the causative/ anticausative alternation in the psych domain ( psych causative alternation of Alexiadou and Iordăchioaia 2014, henceforth A&I 2014). The focus is on two types of SE reflexive alternants of OE verbs, i.e., (i) SE forms with an obligatory instrumental case-marked DP derived from stative OE roots, and (ii) SE forms with an optional instrumental DP derived from eventive OE roots. It is argued that in both cases the reflexive SE alternants of either stative or eventive OE verbs have an obligatory or optional instrumental DP which acts as a complement and represents a Target/Subject Matter (henceforth, T/SM, cf. Pesetsky 1995), not a Cause. Therefore, the reflexive OE/SE verb alternation cannot be of the causa-tive/anticausative type. Monovalent reflexive SE verbs, lacking an instrumental DP alto-gether, are unergative (Reinhart 2001), not unaccusative (contra A&I 2014). The overall conclusion reached in the paper is that the psych causative alternation is absent in Polish.
