Authors: Pertuz María , Serrano-Coll Héctor , Perez-Yepes Carlos , Mattar Salim
Published: June 2024

Introduction: COVID-19 has caused a health, social, and health system emergency, with a dismal infection behavior in patients with special conditions, such as the  immunocompromised pediatric population. Objective: To describe the clinical-epidemiological characteristics of infected SARS-CoV-2 pediatric patients with immunocompromised and neoplastic disorders. Methods: Between March 2020 and February 2022, a retrospective descriptive study was carried out in a cancer center in the Colombian Caribbean. Forty-one immunocompromised children with oncological pathologies and a diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection were included. Inflammatory markers associated with severity,  such as ferritin, leukocytosis, and lymphocytosis, were analyzed. Results: 24.39% of the children evaluated had sickle cell anemia and acute lymphoid leukemia (in the consolidation or maintenance phase). The most frequent  symptoms were fever (31.71%), cough (29.27%), and runny nose (19.51%). The severity of the COVID-19 infection was mild in 39.02% of the cases, and 24.39% were  asymptomatic. Inflammatory markers and clinical manifestations were not associated with severity. Severity was also not associated with oxygen requirements,  thoracic radiological changes, or admission to the ICU (P-value >0.05). Conclusions: The results suggest that despite immunosuppression, the pediatric population did not present severe cases of COVID-19 infection.

Published: June 2024

La histoplasmosis es una infección fúngica causada por Histoplasma ssp, que afecta principalmente el sistema respiratorio, mientras que Staphylococcus aureus resistente a la meticilina (SARM) es una bacteria notoria por ser resistente a los antibióticos y asociarse con infecciones graves. Presentamos un informe de caso  de una mujer de 33 años con antecedente de hidrocefalia que se sometió a la colocación de una derivación ventriculoperitoneal (VP) y posteriormente fue llevada  al servicio de urgencias debido a debilidad muscular progresiva y síntomas sugestivos de infección sistémica. Evaluaciones adicionales revelaron paquimeningitis,  anomalías pulmonares y diagnósticos de histoplasmosis y bacteriemia por SARM que persistió durante varias semanas a pesar de la terapia antibiótica dirigida.  La bacteriemia solo se resolvió después de que se retirara la derivación. Este caso resalta la importancia de considerar diversas etiologías, realizar investigaciones diagnósticas oportunas con un historial médico completo y adoptar enfoques de tratamiento adaptados para casos complejos que involucran infecciones concomitantes.

Published: June 2024

Landscape, especially urban landscape, contributes to the formation of a sense of place. The identification of the perception characteristics of the historical image of Kyiv city, based on visual landscape research, was conducted with the aim of establishing visual connections and areas between sacred structures in the complex
relief conditions of the Starokyivska Hill. The study applied methods for determining the quantitative indicators of spatial-visual characteristics of the studied locality based on a planned route survey. The parameters of the main selected points were determined by depth of visibility, horizontal viewing angle, presence of focal points, accents, types of perspectives, and types of space. Through visual landscape research, the dynamics of visual connections
and areas between elements in the historical landscape of Kyiv were identified. The absence of changes in the spatial-visual characteristics was established at three selected points, while changes were found in others. Specifically, the changes are characterized by a decrease in the depth of visibility along the visual axis between the Desyatynna
Church and the St. Andrew’s Church. The need to search for ways to model the outline of the landscape in the complex relief conditions of the Starokyivska Hill is revealed for the perspective of preserving the historical image and improving spatial solutions in the urban environment.

Published: June 2024

Pancreatic cancer is one of the most aggressive forms of malignant disease, often with a long asymptomatic course, early metastases to distant organs and with an extremely poor prognosis. Here we present the case of a 70-year-old female patient, who was hospitalized in a pulmonology institution with a severe general condition. Due to bilateral lung changes seen on the chest radiograph, she was under suspicion for pneumonia, respiratory insufficiency and had elevated markers of inflammation. On physical examination, paraumbilically on the right, a subcutaneous swelling had been palpated with a harder consistency measuring 7 cm in diameter. She presented an ulcerated umbilicus with a purulent discharge. Nineteen hours after admission, a fatal outcome occurred and the autopsy proved an extended malignant disease (pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (aT3N2M1, Stage IV)) with multiple metastases. It is necessary to adhere to the differential diagnostic algorithm of bilateral lung lesions. Each umbilical nodule should arouse suspicion of the existence of malignant diseases in the abdominal-pelvic region. Therefore, it is of great importance to raise people?s awareness about taking control of their health.
Grice’s anatomy: Dissecting meaning and intentions in pragmatic communication
Authors: Zoric Aleksandra
Published: June 2024

While pragmatics focuses on speech acts and what we do when we speak,
semantics deals with the conventional meaning of an expression and its
contribution to the meaning of sentences. Using Grice?s ideas, speech acts
could be defined as the communicative intention associated with the
utterance of a certain linguistic form. Successful communication
necessitates respecting the syntactic and semantic rules of the language,
conveying our intended message, and ensuring the listener understands our
intention. Grice?s analysis focuses primarily on the speaker?s intentions
and what he calls the speaker?s meaning. The differences between the
conventional and the speaker?s meaning can be explained by starting from a
general principle of human behavior. People participate in communication
with the expectation of achieving certain outcomes, and in order to achieve
them, they adhere to certain strategies that they also expect from others.
This results in cooperation between speakers. Bearing in mind the
possibilities that this kind of analysis opens up for us, we will consider
some of the cases of its application.
Medical populism and collective identity: Metaphors of origin
Authors: Kamerer Eva
Published: June 2024

?Medical populism? refers to the phenomenon of resistance to measures aimed
at protecting public health: refusal to receive a vaccine, to wear
protective masks and the like. In the text I analyze the AIDS epidemic
starting from the concept of medical populism. This epidemic, in my opinion,
is an example of how collective coping with the disease generates populist
representations whose essence is the sharp demarcation of different social
groups and polarization. The aim of the text is to show how the key
metaphors derived from populist ideas about the origin of the disease shaped
scientific knowledge about that disease.

In order to enhance the safety and service life of automotive 4680 cylindrical batteries during high current discharge state, based on theoretical analysis and numerical simulation, a novel air cooling thermal management system that is integrated with finned heat pipe radiators has been developed and studied in this paper. A triangular heat conduction area was developed by leveraging the gaps within an equilateral triangular arrangement of cylindrical batteries to enhance?ment heat transfer and improve energy density, and heat exchange between finned heat pipes and cold air is facilitated by varying numbers of fins. Simulation results indicates that with the ambient temperature of 298.15 K and wind speed of 13 m/s, the maximum temperature of the battery module is 310.81 K and the temperature difference is 4.59 K under a 4C discharge rate. In additional, the temperature difference within the battery module reduces by 4.78% through optimizing the air-flow duct and structure parameters of fins, which offering insights and references for the optimization and application of thermal management of automotive battery modules in the future.
Robust optimization of the Gross Tumor Volume compared to conventional Planning Target Volume-based planning in photon Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy of lung tumors
Authors: Fink Thomas L. , Kristiansen Charlotte , Hansen Torben S. , Hansen Torben F. , Thing Rune S.
Published: June 2024

Background: Robust optimization has been suggested as an approach to reduce the irradiated volume in lung Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT). We performed a retrospective planning study to investigate the potential benefits over Planning Target Volume (PTV)-based planning.
Material and methods: Thirty-nine patients had additional plans using robust optimization with 5-mm isocenter shifts of the Gross Tumor Volume (GTV) created in addition to the PTV-based plan used for treatment. The optimization included the mid-position phase and the extreme breathing phases of the 4D-CT planning scan. The plans were compared for tumor coverage, isodose volumes, and doses to Organs At Risk (OAR). Additionally, we evaluated both plans with respect to observed tumor motion using the peak tumor motion seen on the planning scan and cone-beam CTs.
Results: Statistically significant reductions in irradiated isodose volumes and doses to OAR were achieved with robust optimization, while preserving tumor dose. The reductions were largest for the low-dose volumes and reductions up to 188 ccm was observed. The robust evaluation based on observed peak tumor motion showed comparable target doses between the two planning methods. Accumulated mean GTV-dose was increased by a median of 4.46 Gy and a non-significant increase of 100 Monitor Units (MU) was seen in the robust optimized plans.
Interpretation: The robust plans required more time to prepare, and while it might not be a feasible planning strategy for all lung SBRT patients, we suggest it might be useful for selected patients.

Authors: Kim Jeonghyeon , Lee Inhwan , Kang Hyunsik
Published: June 2024

Objective: To examine the association between physical activity, neck circumference, and cardiovascular disease risk in older wheelchair users.
Design: A cross-sectional study.
Subjects/Patients: Sixty-one Korean wheelchair users aged 50 years and older.
Methods: Physical activity was assessed using a self-administered questionnaire. Neck circumference was measured with a tape ruler. Cardiovascular disease risk was evaluated by calculating the Framingham risk score (FRS) for estimating 10-year cardiovascular disease risk, which was classified as low–moderate (19% or less) or high risk (20% or more).
Results: The FRS for 10-year cardiovascular disease risk was inversely related to physical activity (beta [SE] = –0.213 (0.103), p = 0.043) and positively related to neck circumference (beta [SE] = 1.331 ± 0.419, p = 0.003). Binary logistic regression showed that those with low physical activity (odds ratio [95% confidence interval] = 4.256 (1.188~15.243), p = 0.026) or a large neck circumference (odds ratio [95% confidence interval] = 3.645 (1.172~11.338), p = 0.025) had a higher risk for high cardiovascular disease risk compared with those with high physical activity or normal neck circumference.
Conclusion: The current study findings suggest that an intervention targeting physical inactivity and upper-body obesity should be implemented to reduce cardiovascular disease risk in older wheelchair users.

The paper analyzes the possibility of utilizing the solid carbonized residue (SCR) from the pyrolysis of waste tires (WT). The pyrolysis process of waste tires produces about 36 % of carbonized residue, which can serve as an adhesive and/or modifying additive in the processes of modifying petroleum bitumen. We analyzed the SCP and BND 70/100 bitumen produced at a small-scale industrial unit and PJSC Ukrtatnafta, respectively. The influence of solid carbonized residue on the performance properties of modified bitumen at different ratios of raw materials (BND 70/100) : SCR. According to the results obtained, the optimal amounts of SCR for modifying petroleum bitumen were proposed and directions for further research were determined.

Published: June 2024

Modifying road bitumen of the BND 70/100 brand with humic acids was carried out. In particular, the influence of the duration of the process and the amount of addition on the quality characteristics of the binder was studied. It was established that humic acids negatively affect the plastic properties of bitumen (deteriorate the softening temperature, penetration, and ductility), positively affect its elasticity, and have practically no effect on the ability of the binder to adhere to the surface of the mineral material. The main modifying effect of humic acids is a positive effect on the processes of technological aging of road bitumen (the ability of bitumen to age is slowed down). In particular, residual penetration increases, ΔТ (change in softening temperature) decreases, and Δm (bitumen mass) practically does not change. To ensure the maximum positive impact, the optimal duration of modification and the amount of humic acids in the mixture with bitumen were determined.

The use of school websites as a means of supporting the teaching and learning process as well as promotional media is still very necessary, considering that teachers and students are able to easily access materials and teaching materials without being limited by place and time. So that the student learning process is more flexible and can be done at any time. The use of websites and social media can encourage the effectiveness of the learning and teaching process in schools. So the process of providing materials and teaching materials by teachers needs to be maintained. The existence of the official website at SMP N 2 Karanganyar Demak has supported the online learning process, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic, apart from being an information service and promotional tool. However, currently the official website of SMP N 2 Karanganyar Demak is experiencing problems in development. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the capacity of the official website by replacing the Balitbang CMS with the Sekolahku.web.id CMS which has currently been developed and used by many schools in the archipelago. CMS Sekolahku.web.id has more features and is more flexible in its management.

Rapid and uncontrolled urban growth in the Kumaun Himalayas in absence of proper land use policy has pushed built-up areas towards the tectonically and ecologically sensitive regions, reducing the availability of suitable built-up land while simultaneously increasing the vulnerability of both communities and environment. The identification of areas for sustainable built-up growth is of paramount importance to address the challenges arising from unregulated urban expansion. In this study GIS-based Fuzzy-AHP technique and machine learning algorithms (SVM and BN) were employed to delineate the potential built-up sites selection in Hawalbagh Block, Uttarakhand (India) using nine socio-physical drivers, including slope, aspect, LU/LC, distance to road, distance to drainage, distance to lineament, distance to landslide, distance to settlement, and lithology. The suitability maps generated by the three methods were validated using AU-ROC analysis, which demonstrated that each approach produces outstanding results with AU-ROC values more than 0.90. The comparison of the approaches shows that SVM (AUROC=0.99) outperforms BN (0.95) and GIS-based Fuzzy-AHP (0.90). The suitability maps were classified into five suitability classes. Assuming that very high and high suitability classes are acceptable for built-up expansion, the study identified potential built-up locations in the study region covering an area of 148.86 km2, 85.23 km2, and 55.25 km2 according to the Fuzzy-AHP technique, SVM model, and BN model, respectively. The suitability zonation in this study can serve as a foundation for the development of land-use policy or the formulation of master plans aimed at achieving a sustainable mountain ecology in the Kumaun Himalayas.

This paper deals with a class of p(x)-Kirchhoff type problems involving the p(x)-Laplacian-like operators, arising from the capillarity phenomena, depending on two real parameters with Dirichlet boundary conditions. Using a topological degree for a class of demicontinuous operators of generalized (S+), we prove the existence of weak solutions of this problem. Our results extend and generalize several corresponding results from the existing literature.
Keywords: p(x)-Kirchhoff type problems, p(x)-Laplacian-like operators, weak solutions, variable exponent Sobolev spaces.

This paper is devoted to the study of generalized viscoelastic nonlinear equations with Dirichlet-Neumann boundary conditions. We establish the local and uniqueness of weak solutions results in Sobolev spaces with variable exponents. Solutions are constructed as a limit of approximate solutions by a method independent of a compactness argument. We also discuss the global existence of solutions in the energy space.
Keywords: Viscoelastic equation, global existence, nonlinear dissipation, energy estimates.
