The purpose of this research to find out and analyze the juridical review of the land sale and purchase agreement orally in the conception of legal certainty. Research methods it uses the approach in this study uses an empirical juridical approach. Empirical juridical research is an approach to problems regarding juridical matters and the existing facts regarding juridical matters. Empirical legal research or sociological research is legal research that uses primary data. The results of the study determined that: 1. Juridical Review of the Oral Land Sale and Purchase Agreement in the Conception of Legal Certainty. Based on Article 1320 of the Civil Code regarding the conditions for a valid agreement, it does not regulate the form of an agreement, so that in making an agreement, the community is free to determine its form. Making an agreement in oral form is still valid, as long as it has fulfilled the legal requirements of the agreement stated in Article 1320 of the Civil Code. Oral agreements are also valid as long as there is no law that stipulates that the agreement to be made must be in written form, so that the oral agreement also has legal certainty in binding the parties who made it, for that if there is a default in the oral agreement, the oral agreement can be used as the basis to declare someone to be in default. 2. The Role and Authority of a Notary in Realizing Legal Certainty Against the Sale and Purchase of Land Conducted Orally. The role of a notary in making an authentic deed as regulated in Act No. 40 of 2004 concerning Notary Positions, based on this provision, the notary's authority in making the deed of sale and purchase of land has strong legal force because the authority is based on the law, so the deed concerned (in terms of binding sale and purchase of land/sales and purchase deed) can be used as a basis for authentic evidence by the parties if in the future there is a dispute regarding the object of the agreement as stated in Article 15 paragraph (2) letter f of the UUJN. 3. Example of Making a Deed of Sale and Purchase of Land.

Çiftçilerin coğrafi işaretli ürünlere yönelik bilgi düzeyleri ile bilgilenme isteklerinin analizi: Çanakkale ili örneği
Authors: EVEREST Bengü , AKER Abdullah , UĞURLU EGE Rabia , ÇIRACI Bahar
Published: October 2022

Bir bölgenin ürünü diğer bölgelere göre ün kazanmış olabilir ve bu ün tüketiciler tarafından tercih sebebi olabilir. Bu durum tüketiciye güven verir ve ürün iç ve dış pazarlarda daha iyi koşullarda pazarlanabilir. Bunu sağlamanın yolu ise ürünlere coğrafi işaret almaktır. Bu bağlamda coğrafi işaretli ürün kavramının hem tüketici hem de üretici açısından farkındalığı önemlidir. Bu çalışmada Çanakkale ilindeki çiftçilerin coğrafi işaretli ürünlere ilişkin bilinçleri ele alınmıştır. Bu kapsamda 267 çiftçi ile anket çalışması yapılmış ve veriler ki-kare analizi ile değerlendirilmiştir. Böylece Çanakkale ilindeki çiftçilerin coğrafi işaret kavramından haberdar olma durumları, bu konuya ilişkin eğitim alma istekleri, coğrafi işaret tescili alma sürecinde rol alma istekleri ile bölgelerinin coğrafi işaretli ürünlerle tanınıp kırsal turizm faaliyetlerinin artırılması yönelik isteklilikleri ortaya konmuştur. Elde edilen bulgulara göre çiftçilerin sadece %21,3’ü coğrafi işaretli ürünler hakkında detaylı bilgi sahibidir ve %71,9’u coğrafi işaretli ürün konusunda eğitim almak istemektedir. Yapılan ki-kare analiz sonucuna göre ise çiftçilerin coğrafi işaret konusunda eğitim alma istekleri ile yaş, ikamet yeri, tarımsal kurumları ziyaret, tarımsal toplantılara katılım, internet kullanımı, tarımsal yayınlara üyelik ve gelir arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir ilişki bulunmaktadır.
Retrospective Analysis on Characteristics of Uterine Smooth Muscle Tumors of Uncertain Malignant Potential—13 Years' Experience
Authors: Lin Ying-Mei , Hong Shiao-Ya , Teng Sen-Wen , Chang Cheng-Kun , Lai Ting-Jung
Published: October 2022

Background: Benign leiomyomas (LM) and malignant leiomyosarcomas (LMS) can be distinguished by increased cellularity with mitotic activity. Uterine smooth muscle tumors of uncertain malignant potential (STUMP) are a group of rare tumors in between, for which there is still no standardized classification, nor any definitive preoperative imaging or laboratory investigations regarding the possible inclusion of STUMP in the differential diagnosis. Methods: In this study, we retrospectively reviewed 6 cases of STUMP, and assessed their pathogenesis, risk factors, and prognostic features. Results: The mean age of STUMP patients was 40.6 years old. No recurrence has been reported in all six cases after more than 3.6 years of follow-up. The mean tumor size was 9.44 cm (range 6.14–12.21). 4 cases (66.7%) with <5 mitoses, 1 case (16.7%) with 5–9 mitoses, and 1 case (16.7%) with >10 mitoses per 10 high-power fields. Immunohistochemical staining for cyclin dependent kinase nhibitor 2A (p16), tumor protein p53 (p53), and Antigen KI-67 (Ki-67) was 100% positive (2/2, 6/6, and 6/6, respectively). The estrogen receptor (ER) expression rate was 50.0% (3/6), and the progesterone receptor (PR) was 33.3% (1/3). There was no correlation between the expression of these biomarkers and mitotic counts or recurrence. Conclusions: The current immunohistochemical biomarkers are ineffective in determining the probability of malignancy in STUMP patients with desire of further fertility. Detection of gene expression profiles or variants using next-generation molecular techniques may aid in disease prediction, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis.
The Role of Intestinal Flora in Anti-Tumor Antibiotic Therapy

Published: October 2022

Anti-tumor antibiotics are chemical substances produced by micro-organisms to control cancer development. Some of the currently used cancer treatment regimens are anti-tumor antibiotics. However, many studies have demonstrated that anti-tumor antibiotics may have adverse effects on normal cells. This calls for development of strategies to alleviate these negative effects and improve cancer treatment. Recent studies have suggested that the efficacy of anti-tumor antibiotics may be affected by intestinal microbiota. For instance, intestinal microbiota can alleviate the negative effects of antibiotic treatment and regulate the tumor immune micro-environment. In this way, anti-tumor antibiotics can improve tumor control. However, the specific mechanisms need to be further explored. This review discusses the effect of intestinal flora on anti-tumor antibiotic therapy and summarizes the specific mechanisms by which antibiotics inhibit harmful intestinal micro-organisms and promote efficacy of probiotics, which may improve the control of neoplasm development and growth.

Published: October 2022

Background: Although controversially discussed, paclitaxel is the only clinically proven drug that inhibits restenosis when released from drug-coated balloons (DCBs). Limus drugs are currently being explored as alternatives. The aim of the preclinical studies was to investigate drug candidates beyond paclitaxel considered for balloon coating. Methods: Drugs were tested with respect to dissolution in organic solvents, coating on balloons, and drug transfer to the vessel wall. Inhibition of neointimal proliferation was tested in the porcine model of coronary in-stent stenosis. Intravascular drug treatment was achieved by DCBs at the time of stent implantation. Results: Coating had to be adjusted for each drug. Doses on the balloons ranged from 1.0 to 8.6 μg/mm2 balloon surface. Satisfactory amounts of drug ranging from 5% to 29% of initial doses were transferred into the vessel wall. Angiographic parameters such as late lumen loss (LLL) at 4 weeks did not show reduction of in-stent neointimal proliferation by treatment with arsenic trioxide (0.87 ± 0.44 mm), betamethasone dipropionate (1.00 ± 0.54 mm), bortezomib (1.74 ± 0.46 mm), green tea extract (1.24 ± 0.51 mm), fantolon, an epothilone (0.86 ± 0.61 mm), methotrexate (1.09 ± 0.72 mm), and thalidomide (1.59 ± 0.55 mm) compared to treatment with uncoated balloons (1.07 ± 0.60 mm), while coatings with paclitaxel reliably reduced in-stent stenosis (LLL = 0.36 ± 0.25 mm). Conclusions: Despite the proven antiproliferative and/or anti-inflammatory effect of the drugs, none of the coatings significantly reduced LLL compared to uncoated balloons and thus, based on the results presented here, none of the tested coatings may be considered a substitute for the paclitaxel-based coatings currently in clinical use.
Hybrid Ablation of Nonparoxysmal Atrial Fibrillation: The Convergent and Totally Thoracoscopic Approaches
Authors: Merritt-Genore HelenMari , Kiankhooy Armin
Published: October 2022

Nonparoxysmal atrial fibrillation continues to challenge electrophysiologist and surgeons alike. Stand-alone endocardial catheter ablation has resulted in less than satisfying results, and while the on-pump Cox-Maze surgery has excellent results, the invasiveness has limited its adoption amongst both referring providers and surgeons. The CONVERGE IDE trial has shed new light on this once dim problem. EPs and Surgeons are now working together in a Hybrid Team Ablation Approach to provide a combined ablation strategy that has improved patient outcomes and rekindled the collaboration necessary to better patient outcomes. We herein summarize the current Hybrid Team Ablation Approaches (CONVERGE and Totally Thoracoscopic) with nonparoxysmal atrial fibrillation.
Differential expression of TCF4 in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: October 2022

Neurodegenerative diseases that affect the motor neurons, including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), have little treatment options and are generally rapidly fatal (1, 2). We harnessed the power of unbiased, whole transcriptome differential gene expression analysis, utilizing primary patient cells and tissues to discover genes whose expression defines sporadic ALS using published data (3, 4). We found significant differential expression of TCF4, encoding transcription factor 4, in primary motor neurons of patients with ALS. TCF4 was also differentially expressed in fibroblasts isolated from patients with ALS. TCF4 transcript was present at higher levels in ALS patient fibroblasts as compared to control, non-diseased fibroblasts. These analyses will begin to define the transcriptional landscape of ALS.
Modelling an Extraterrestrial Epidemic
Authors: Deonandan Raywat , Litvinjenko Stefan
Published: October 2022

Panspermia is the theory that life has been transported between bodies in the solar system by means of asteroid or cometary impact. Assuming that panspermia is true, and that genetically related microbial life exists outside of our planet, then it is possible that such life could pose an infectious threat to the terrestrial biosphere. We offer several assumptions of the characteristics that such life might possess and extrapolate the likely epidemiological compartment approach to be applied when attempting to model the impact of an Earthly epidemic originating from an extraterrestrial pathogen.

Neurodegenerative diseases that affect the motor neurons, including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), have little treatment options and are generally rapidly fatal (1, 2). We harnessed the power of unbiased, whole transcriptome differential gene expression analysis, utilizing primary patient cells and tissues to discover genes whose expression defines ALS using published data (3, 4). We found significant differential expression of C10orf54, encoding chromosome 10 open reading frame 54, in the motor neurons of patients with ALS. C10orf54 was also differentially expressed in induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived motor neurons of patients with ALS. C10orf54 transcript was present at higher levels in ALS patient motor neurons as compared to control motor neurons. These analyses will begin to define the transcriptional landscape of ALS.
Métodos cuantitativos para estudiar a las élites: Aplicaciones prácticas, sesgos y potencialidades
Authors: González-Bustamante Bastián
Published: October 2022

Este trabajo metodológico discute aplicaciones prácticas, ventajas y desventajas del análisis histórico de eventos o de supervivencia en comparación con estrategias econométricas clásicas en ciencias sociales como las regresiones logísticas binarias. En consecuencia, se analiza cuándo el enfoque de supervivencia es conveniente en comparación con modelos logísticos y cuáles son los riesgos de trabajar con datos observacionales y estimaciones potencialmente sesgadas. Para responder ambas preguntas se realizan dos demostraciones econométricas con técnicas de propensión y emparejamiento para analizar el efecto de la trayectoria y vínculos empresariales en el acceso y permanencia en posiciones políticas relevantes. Para esto se utiliza la Encuesta de Élites en Chile (1990-2010) y un conjunto de datos de ministros que desempeñaron su cargo entre 1990 y 2014. Los hallazgos evidencian que la trayectoria empresarial no tiene mayor impacto en el acceso a posiciones relevantes, sin embargo, si está asociada con un menor riesgo de ser removido del gabinete. Las demostraciones econométricas muestran que el análisis de supervivencia es útil para fenómenos que implican intervalos de tiempo, mientras que las regresiones logísticas resultan pertinentes para estudiar el acceso a posiciones siempre que el muestreo sea adecuado. También se evidencian diferencias significativas entre modelos sin ajustes o placebos y modelos con mejores especificaciones o estimados después de la aplicación del algoritmo de emparejamiento.
Racial Disparities in Arrests in Santa Clara County, California, 1980-2019
Authors: Hunt Sophia , Bozeman Micayla , Clair Matthew
Published: October 2022

This report examines racial/ethnic disparities in arrests in Santa Clara County, California, from 1980 to 2019. Over the past forty years, felony and misdemeanor arrest rates have declined for all racial groups, but racial disparities have persisted and, in some cases, increased. Black residents, though a small percentage of the population, are disproportionately susceptible to being arrested. In the 2010s, the Black arrest rate was 5.4 times the White arrest rate—the highest Black-White ratio in arrest rates observed over the four decades. Nevertheless, as overall arrest rates declined over this period, the absolute difference between Black and White arrest rates substantially narrowed. Hispanic residents are also disproportionately arrested, but to a lesser degree than Black residents. Racial/ethnic disparities are most pronounced with respect to felony arrests; the Black-White ratio in felony arrest rates peaked at 7.2 in the 1980s and declined to 6.6 in the 2010s. Racial/ethnic disparities also exist, to a lesser degree, with respect to misdemeanor arrests. We find small racial differences in arrest dispositions (or, what law enforcement does with a person following arrest). However, it is noteworthy that, across all four decades, Black and Hispanic felony arrests are slightly more likely than White felony arrests to result in release due to “insufficient grounds to file a complaint.” This pattern could suggest that law enforcement officers are more likely to arrest Black and Hispanic residents for reasons that law enforcement entities later determine do not rise to the level sufficient for filing a complaint with the District Attorney’s Office.
Integrating interpreting into institutional practice: sign language interpreting in the Police and National Health Service in Scotland
Authors: Downie Jonathan , Turner Graham
Published: October 2022

This paper describes the operation and outcomes of the Promoting Equal Access to Services project, which had two aims. The first was to reduce the gap between training and work for sign language interpreters by offering a six-month structured internship, including placements in the Police and National Health Service, alongside mentoring, supervision and coaching. The second aim was to further the integration of interpreting into the institutional practice of the Police and National Health Service. The paper describes the background of the project and the organisationally-centred theoretical framework, based on the work of Dong (Dong 2016; Dong/Turner 2016) and Downie (2016), before outlining the support package offered and examining intern experience and the effects on each of the organisations, before discussing the relevance of the results for future similar projects and for the theorisation of interpreting. It concludes by arguing that, to ease the transition between interpreting and work and to create environments conducive to excellent interpreting, close co-operation between training providers and organisations that use interpreting regularly will be needed.
THE AXIOLOGICAL FUNCTION OF THE PRESIDENT'S PRESS CONFERENCES IN THE PUBLIC POLICY OF RUSSIA
Authors: Borshchevsky Georgii
Published: October 2022

The big press conferences of the President of Russia over the past two decades has become a tool for expressing the official position, public goal-setting, as well as a kind of «reconciliation» of the values of the political elite and Russian society. In this paper we purpose to identify value connotations in the discursive practices of participants of these press conferences in the 2001-2021. We want to complement existing empirical studies of public policy and adapt well-known theories of political axiology to Russian practice. We use such methods as cross-cultural research; content analysis; clustering and mapping; analysis of secondary sociological data; analysis of macroeconomic statistics; correlation analysis etc. We revealed the strengthening of the materialistic component of public discourse (by Ronald Inglehart) during periods of economic crisis. Generational gap is also influence on the structure of political values. Also we confirmed the Geert Hofstede’s thesis about the collectivist values dominance and high power distance in Russian society. Russian political discourse gravitates towards both egalitarian values (by Shalom Schwartz) and liberal values (by Milton Rokeach). We found a negative statistical relationships between the frequency of public mention of political values and their approval by the respondents, as well as between the frequency of using axiologemes with the dynamics of key macroeconomic indicators. The increase in the frequency of mentioning political values during periods of economic recession we interpret as attempts by the elite to rally around the flag in the face of economic difficulties. Persistent negative connotations between the public voicing of political values and their perception by respondents indicate the existence of a latent value conflict between the elite and society, which manifests itself in an increase in the demand for change.
THE PSYCHOLOGICAL INFLUENCE OF RUSSIAN SOCIETY ON THE PUBLIC POLICY
Authors: Shestopal Elena
Published: October 2022

The societal role in the public policy presupposes it’s recognition as an independent actor of political decision-making. But tackling the society rarely pays attention to its’ psychological state in each moment of the time. The paper discusses the results of the study that describes the current psychological state of Russian society and its’ capability to influence public policy. The author distinguishes two main trends. The first trend facilitates the societal role in public policy, i.e.: the growing level of society’s self-consciousness, high level of activism demand, the change of political «optics», in particular the growth of cognitive complexity and precision of political representations. The second trend is opposite to the first as during last two years Russian society was affected by the growth of negative emotional background, raise of political indifference, lack of political interest that are not less dangerous to stability of the state than riots, aggressiveness, protests. This trend shows the lack of readiness to mobilization that is necessary in the face of pandemic or military risks. But positive changes in psychological state of society concern the core of this phenomenon as the negative affects it’s periphery. It permits us to evaluate the changes in psychological state of Russian society as rather positive, though not stable ones.

Use of Moving Average Convergence Divergence for Predicting Price Movements
Authors: Joshi Dushyant Lal
Published: October 2022

The main purpose of this study is to carrying out how Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) works for predicting price of securities and to assist investment decisions. It is one of the powerful technical indicators, which is frequently used by technical analysist in stock market. However, most tests fail to verify performance with traditional parameter settings of 12, 26, and 9 days. This technique consists of a combination of close neighbor classification and some well-known tools of technical analysis, namely, stop loss or stop profit. In order to evaluate the potential use of the proposed method in practice, we compare the results obtained with the results obtained by adopting the buy and hold strategy. This paper shows how trade signal generated by this indicator can be used to minimize trading risk in markets. This study also tests which model is able to improve profitability by applying additional criteria to avoid false trade signals. The key performance measure in this technique is profitability. Technical analysis is used to assist in properly timing entry and exit points, when to buy and sell of stocks?
Manger l’autre (2018) : pour une autre poétique insulaire
Authors: Parfait Cynthia Volanosy
Published: October 2022

Manger l’autre (2018) est le roman occidental d’Ananda Devi aussi bien dans ses préoccupations sociologiques que dans ses descriptions des lieux, mais il ne reste pas moins insulaire, dans le sens îlien du terme et pas nécessairement mauricien. Cette étude s’intéresse, en effet, à une autre poétique insulaire anandadevienne construite autour des intertextes contextualisés sous forme de prolongement du roman de l’exil mauricien À l’autre bout de moi (1979) et de contre-discours du récit fondateur de la littérature de l’île Paul et Virginie (1788). Et plus qu’un jeu d’échos, le motif de l’isolement du protagoniste obèse ainsi que son rapport avec l’extérieur traduiraient l’isolement originel de l’insulaire.

Authors: Moukara Aïssatou
Published: October 2022

Les références à la notion du Karma abondent dans l’œuvre romanesque d’Ananda Devi, figure féminine majeure de la francophonie littéraire de l’océan Indien. Ces références évoquent un destin tragique en rapport avec l’idée d’exil pour la communauté indienne installée à l’île Maurice à la faveur de la traversée du Grand Océan. Or, cette traversée des « eaux obscures » (Kala pani) est un tabou, une malédiction dans l’hindouisme. Installés dans l’espace insulaire de Maurice, les indo-descendants que présentent les œuvres de Devi vivent une sorte d’éternel retour de cette malédiction originelle, la communauté se sentant châtiée par un sentiment de déracinement, qui rappelle sans cesse le lien indéfectible avec la mère patrie la culture ancestrale. À partir de deux romans du cycle dit hindouisant d’Ananda Devi, et en prenant appui sur les travaux de Mircea Eliade (2009) sur les symboles et les structures mythiques, cette étude ambitionne de montrer que la mort est une figure de réincarnation dans une nouvelle vie. L’analyse conduit ainsi à comprendre que le Kala pani est un espace-temps tragique, en même temps, qu’il est un espace-temps d’immersion purificatrice, et de renaissance symbolique dans l’imaginaire des exilés que la romancière met en scène.
Le Sari vert, un plaidoyer pour les femmes au-delà de l’océan Indien
Authors: Rey Mimoso-Ruiz Bernadette
Published: October 2022

Bien que Le Sari vert se présente comme un monologue masculin, il n’en est pas moins un plaidoyer pour les femmes, une illustration de la maltraitance au nom de la virilité dans un contexte que l’on ne peut circonscrire uniquement dans la société mauricienne.

Dans le projet de cette étude, à partir de la problématique centrée sur la monstruosité dans ses manifestations et ses paramètres psychologiques, seront examinées les composantes relevant spécifiquement de la culture et de la société mauricienne, de son héritage indien dans la conception du féminin, de l’influence d’une religion hiérarchisée ainsi que les éléments linguistiques en usage chez Ananda Devi qui leur octroient une dimension ouverte sur l’Occident au service d’une cause tristement universelle.

Impact of Reward on Job Satisfaction and Employee Intention to Leave: A Study of Private Organization’s Employees of Karachi
Authors: Sheikh Faryal Shahabuddin
Published: October 2022

The considerable growth of private businesses in Karachi certifies the upward sloping trend of availability of opportunities for working professionals. Hence, retaining employees with enhanced satisfaction has become a growing concern of the organization. Thus, a study is undertaken to explore variant aspects of reward that improves employee job satisfaction and reduces the intention to leave. This is a quantitative research established on Post Positivism philosophy and based on deductive approach to ascertaining the existence of relationship between "Reward {"Extrinsic Reward ("Salary", "Incentive", Allowances", "Other Benefits"), and "Intrinsic Rewards"}", "Job Satisfaction" and employee "Intention to Leave". Also, the survey questionnaire is employed to collect cross-sectional data from 400 employees of the Private Organizations. Amid all, "Salary" and "Intrinsic Rewards" are identified as factors that significantly affect employee "Job Satisfaction" and "Intention To Leave". Also, "Allowances" have a substantial impact on "Intention To Leave”. A minimum difference is experienced in aspects of “Reward" affecting "Job Satisfaction" and "Intention Leave" while employing "Gender", "Age" and "Professional Level" as moderating variables. Moreover, the research does endorse the presence of a relationship between identified items and their corresponding constructs, and employees "Job Satisfaction" and "Intention To Leave". However, the relationship extends from a low to moderate level. The findings of this research augment the knowledge base of aspects of "Reward" that can improve employees satisfaction with rate of retention and can also be used to conduct further studies on identifying factors that further strengthen the identified relationship.

Authors: Chaika Oksana
Published: October 2022

The present paper aims to look into developing the technology of dialogic interaction as an effective tool for fostering and cultivating poly- / multiculturalism with future foreign language (FL) teachers / instructors in an educational setting. The objectives of the research connect to clarifying the requirements to design and development of such technology of dialogic interaction, on the one hand; and on the other, they relate to description of some requirements (criteria) in more detail to illustrate the theoretical background with some examples. It is followed that communication is a social process in which an exchange of experiences takes place, as well as exchange of activity methods, and communicants share their skills and abilities, results of activities embodied in material and spiritual culture. Further, it is emphasized how necessary it is not only to develop communication skills of students, who train to become foreign language teachers / instructors in future, but also to form / shape their communicative culture in the course of studying subjects in connection to the humanities cycle. The literature review allows bringing to the surface certain requirements, which should be met for technology of dialogic interaction in its development and implementation stages. It is found that communication based and oriented approach for developing a technology of the dialogic interaction is considered leading and basic in the technology description as it encourages development of a poly-/ multicultural personality. The sound reason for that is seen in acquisition of new knowledge by means of interacting with others and the world following the concept that communication is the essence of all personality growth oriented technologies.
Factors affecting long-term remission in patients with FSGS and NS.
Authors: Claudio Bazzi NS.
Published: October 2022

In FSGS with Nephrotic Syndrome (NS) 23 patients (61%) of 38 with functional outcome are in remission with very long follow up (from 60 to 331 months) after treatment with Steroids alone or in combination with Cyclophosphamide. It would be interesting to assess whether in 11 patients with follow up from 5 to 27.6 years some parameters are associated with less severe disease favouring very long term remission. Three parameters were considered [age<vs≥35 yrs, normal or high blood pressure (BP0 and BP1 ) baseline 24hP <vs≥ 6.5] to verify whether they assess lower disease severity favouring remission. Age≥ vs <35 yrs and BP1 va BP0 are characterized by very significant differences of age, baseline and last eGFR, TID score and AH score. The patients with baseline 24hP < vs ≥6.5) were significantly different only for proteinuric parameters (TUP/C, IgG/C, Alb/C, α1m/C). In all remission patients the last value of 24hP is not significantly different according to the considered parameters and is independent from the baseline values eGFR and TUP/C and duration of follow up
A Review: Discussion of Factors Affecting the Efficacy of UV Inactivation
Authors: Li Mengmeng
Published: October 2022

UV can achieve the sterilization of clean and nontoxic by-products, and the article makes clear the way in which data such as irradiance and dose are taken. The article data indicates that higher bactericidal efficacy can be achieved for most bacteria at doses of 4 mJ/cm2 for irradiance 1.0 mW/cm2 and 0.06-0.30 mW/cm2 for irradiance 11 mJ/cm2. The value of irradiance ignored the attenuation of LED during long-term use. By comparing the bactericidal effect of single layered and multi-layered bacteria, the degree of cleanliness achievable by UV bactericidal is illustrated, and it is reminded that safety protection should be taken care of during use.
