Authors: Zentika. I. Fajri  , Irwanto Fredi Heru , A Miarta  , Theodorus
Published: December 2021

Background: Endotracheal intubation is a procedure performed by inserting an endotracheal tube into the airway. With endotracheal intubation, there can be several complications ranging from mild to severe. Sore throat, coughing, and hoarseness were several endotracheal intbation complications. From several studies, it was found that the incidence of POST was 21-65%. This study aimed to determine the efficacy between 0.1% triamcinolone acetonide gel and 100 mcg mometasone spray in reducing sore throat, cough, and hoarseness due to endotracheal intubation.

Method: A Randomized Controlled Trial, Open-Label was carried out on patients undergoing endotracheal intubation with general anesthesia in RSMH operating room from September 2020 - November 2020. Seventy-two study subjects met the inclusion criteria and were divided into two groups, namely the triamcinolone acetonide gel group, and the mometasone spray group. Analyzing data was SPSS version 23.

Result: There were no difference between age, sex, ASA PS classification, and length of operation between the two groups (p> 0.05). Mometasone spray 100 mcg and triamcinolone acetonide gel 0.1% had the same effectiveness to reduce endotracheal intubation such as sore throat, cough, and hoarseness within 24 hours of endotracheal intubation (p> 0.05). There was a significant difference in the incidence of sore throat between two groups in the first hour (p = 0.039).

Conclusion: There was no statistically significant difference between the efficiency of mometasone spray 100 mcg and triamcinolone acetonide gel 0.1% on a sore throat, cough, and hoarseness within 24 hours of endotracheal intubation (p > 0.05).
Advancing diagnosis and treatment of Niemann-Pick C disease
through biomarker discovery
Authors: Jiang Xuntian , Ory Daniel S.
Published: December 2021

Niemann-Pick C disease is a rare neurodegenerative, lysosomal storage disease caused by accumulation of unesterified cholesterol. Diagnosis of the disease is often delayed due to its rarity, the heterogeneous presentation, and the early non-specific symptoms. The discovery of disease-specific biomarkers—cholestane-3β,5α,6β-triol (C-triol), trihydroxycholanic acid glycinate (TCG) and N-palmitoyl-O-phosphocholineserine [PPCS, initially referred to as lysosphingomyelin-509 (lysoSM-509)]—has led to development of non-invasive, blood-based diagnostics. Dissemination of these rapid, sensitive, and specific clinical assays has accelerated diagnosis. Moreover, the superior receiver operating characteristic of the TCG bile acid biomarker and its detection in dried blood spots has also facilitated development of a newborn screen for NPC, which is currently being piloted in New York state. The C-triol, TCG and PPCS biomarkers have also been proved useful for monitoring treatment response in peripheral tissues, but are uninformative with respect to treatment efficacy in the central nervous system (CNS). A major gap for the field is the lack of a validated, non-invasive biomarker to monitor the course of disease and CNS response to therapy.

Mazar as an element of the funeraly culture of the kazakhs of the village of Segizbay
Authors:   Dostoevsky Omsk State University, Omsk, Toybazarova D. Sh.
Published: December 2021

In this article the author analyzes the materials on the gravestones obtained during the expedition to the aul Segizbai. To a greater extent, mazars — four-walled funerary mausoleums reaching two or more meters in height — were investigated. In Kazakh tradition gravestones always serve as a home for the deceased person, so they often resemble a house in their appearance. Two-meter-high mausoleums are difficult to refer to the traditional form of gravestones, but recently there has been a tendency to erect mazars. The author in this study tries to identify the reasons for such metamorphosis of the Kazakh tradition.

The appearance of towers in the fortification on the territory of the north of the Upper Ob region
Authors:   Institute of Archaeology and Ethnography SB RAS, Novosibirsk, Borodovskiy A. P.
Published: December 2021

The article is devoted to the history of the appearance of towers on the territory of Siberia as fortifications. The aim of the research is to generalize and systematize objects, conditionally correlated with them, at the archaeological sites (fortified settlements) of the North of the Upper Ob Region. For this territory a tendency was traced of the «bastion» type fortifications, starting from the second half of the I-st millennium AD, and before the beginning of the II-nd millennium AD. Such fortifications are present both on irregular structures and defensive geometric shaped structures. The existence of this tradition casts a doubt on the hypothesis that there was no such type of defensive structures among the native population before the Russian development of this ter- ritory began. However, in the Early New Time, in settlements with fortifications (fortress) built by native residents, such elements of fortification were practically not found, which makes it possible to state the discreteness of the spread of the aboriginal «bastion» tradition for this territory. In this region, wooden bastion-type towers appeared no earlier than the turn of the XVII-th and XVIII-th centuries. They are represented in Urtamsky (1684), Chaussky (1713) and Umrevinsky (first third of the XVIII-th century) ostrogs and are associated with the spread of the firearms (hand and artillery).

Derecho penal y administrativo. El funcionario público y la lucha por la armonía dogmática
Authors: Vignolo Cueva Orlando
Published: December 2021

En el presente trabajo, el autor analiza y propone la defensa de un concepto unitario de funcionario público, tratando de superar la excesiva elasticidad funcional que presenta la legislación penal referida a los sujetos que podrían cometer delitos contra la administración pública. Este fenómeno nacido de un listado de sujetos disímiles que son tratados como funcionarios públicos “a efectos de la jurisdicción penal”, ha saltado por completo lo construido por la dogmática del Derecho administrativo, e incluso en los últimos años ha empezado a mostrar una fuerte expansión en campos de la propia función pública, las diversas responsabilidades administrativas y el control gubernamental peruano.

Non-Communicable Disease (NCD) is closely related to the aging process, social development, and increased risk factors. The study aims to analyze the prevalence of NCD among the elderly in Indonesia based on demographic characteristics. The study employed the 2018 Indonesia Basic Health Survey data. The survey used the multi-stage cluster random sampling method; it was a weighted sample of 85,358 elderly. In this analysis, the NCDs prevalence in the elderly includes hypertension, heart disease, bronchial asthma, chronic renal failure, diabetes mellitus (DM), stroke, and cancer determined based on a doctor’s diagnosis. The study result shows the prevalence of NCD in the elderly population in Indonesia, most of which are hypertension, mental-emotional disorders, depression, DM, and heart disease. Based on age group, the prevalence of hypertension, mental-health disorders, and depression tends to increase with increasing age, stroke and bronchial asthma are higher in the 70-79. DM and cancer were higher in the 60-69. Heart disease and kidney failure did not differ relatively between age groups. The prevalence of hypertension, mental-emotional disorders, depression, DM, heart disease, and cancer was higher in women. Still, asthma, stroke, and chronic kidney failure tended to be more in men. The study concluded that the most prevalent NCDs among older people in Indonesia were hypertension, mental, emotional disorders, depression, DM, and heart disease. NCDs have demographic characteristics.

Global estimates confirm the future need for more health cadres, including doctors. The study aims to investigate reasons to choose medicine as a career among students at a Turkish private medical school. A web-based cross-sectional study was conducted among the first-, second-and third-class medical students receiving education in the second semester of the 2017-2018 academic year at the BezmialemVakif University, Istanbul, Turkey. The universal sampling technique using a semi-structured questionnaire was recruited to collect the data. The SPSS 16.0 package used to analyze the data, and the statistically significant was considered at less than 0.05. The mean age of students was 20.3 + 4.3 years (range 18-23 years). More than half (57.3%) were females, and most of them (76.5%) lived with their parents. The majority (87.5%) of them inquired about medical college, and 85.1% of them won the medical school in the first trial. The main reasons to study medicine were personal preference(75.7%), studying medicine is appealing(52.4%),humanitarian profession(52.2%), the ready availability of work for physicians(42.2%), challenging carrier providing an opportunity to solve mysteries(40.8%), childhood dream(39.2%), profiting profession(35.7%), my parents’ vision and choice(31.8%), respectively. Almost the motives behind choosing to study medicine are similar across societies but different in the priorities.
Long-Term Consequences of Intraoperative Spillage of Bile and Gallstones During Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
Authors: Rafa’a Sami Mahmood Al- Hayali
Published: December 2021

Compared to open cholecystectomy, laparoscopic cholecystectomy is linked to a greater rate of iatrogenic gallbladder perforation. The long-term effects of gallstones and spilled bile are unknown. Over a three-year period, data were gathered prospectively from 1059 patients who had laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The operating techniques and postoperative outcomes of individuals who had gallbladder perforation were examined in detail. Long-term follow-up (varying from 24 to 59 months) was available for 92 % of patients. The gallbladder was perforated in 306 patients (29%); it was more prevalent in men and was linked to increasing age, body weight, and the presence of omental adhesions (all P less than 0.001). Patients with acute cholecystitis had no higher risk (P = 0.13). Pyrexia was more likely postoperatively in individuals who had gallbladder contents spilled (18% vs. 9%; P less than 0.001). Intra-abdominal abscesses formed in 1 (0.6%) of 177 patients with just bile leakage and 3 (2.9 %) of 102 patients with both gallstones and bile spilling, but no intra-abdominal abscesses formed in the 696 patients in whom the gallbladder was removed intact (P less than 0.001). During laparoscopic cholecystectomy, intraperitoneal leakage of gallbladder contents is linked to an increased risk of intra-abdominal abscess. Attempts should be undertaken to irrigate the operating field in order to drain spilt bile and retrieve all gallstones that may have been spilled during the process.
Medical Negligence Pertaining to Medical Records: A Retrospective Study
Authors: Sanjay Sukumar
Published: December 2021

Background: Medical record is a vital document, and the doctor/hospital has to maintain these records properly. Most medical negligence cases rely heavily on medical records to establish a case of negligence against the doctor. Poorly filled or incomplete medical records will usually work against the favour of the treating doctor. Methods: A total of 242 cases of medical negligence cases decided by the National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission (NCDRC) from 2015 to 2019 (5 years) were analysed, and negligence/deficiency in service was proven in 126 cases of these lacunae in the medical records were found in 37 cases. Results: Some of the common mistakes were missed entry in the medical records (37%), deficient consent form (20%) and missing medical records (17%). Conclusion: Medical records play a vital role in medical negligence cases. Not maintaining proper medical records can leave the doctors/hospital vulnerable in liability cases.

Published: December 2021

Context: Growth and development is a continuous process that occurs intrauterine and continues until adulthood. In the process of reaching adulthood, children must go through various stages of growth and development, Growth is influenced by two main factors, namely internal (genetic) factors and external (environmental) factors. Internal factors include gender, obstetrics and race or ethnicity. Based on the background pattern above, the researcher wants to compare the difference in the duration of growth spurt between the Malaysian and Indonesian populations in terms of the Cervical Vertebrae Maturation (CVM) seen on the lateral cefalogramAims: to compare the differences in the duration of growth spurt between girl and boy in Indonesian and Malaysia Population based on Cervical Vertebrae Maturation (CVM) seen in the lateral cephalogram to determine the right time and orthodontic treatment plan in order to get maximum treatment results.Methods and Material: The study was conducted in June 2020. The research variables were divided into 3 types, namely independent variables (chronological age), dependent variables (skeletal age and growth spurt duration) and controlled variables (Indonesian population children, Gender, CVM CS3 - CS4). Every sample that met the criteria was performed skeletal maturity analysis using Cervical Vertebrae Maturation.Results: The boy sample required a duration of age to reach maturity, 17.93 months in Indonesia and 17.91 months in Malaysia. Meanwhile, the girs sample only required the duration of growth spurt, namely 6.59 months in Indonesia and 6.64 months in MalaysiaConclusion: There is no significant difference between the duration of growth spurt in Indonesian Boy and Malaysian Boy and so does the duration of growth spurt for Indonesian and Malaysian girl.

Beyond Entanglement
Authors: Fredengren Christina
Published: December 2021

This keynote discusses how human-animal relationships can be studied as entanglements to understand more of the situatedness of human and animal bodies and lives. It provides a selection of thinking tools from critical posthumanist feminism and new materialism which should prove useful for studying more-than-human worldmaking through archaeology. These tools can be used to study how humanity and animality are produced, how to recognise animal agentiality, and to highlight challenges on the way. Key issues are identified in concepts such as taxonomies, hybridity, othering and killability. Examples are drawn from recently published research on human-animal relations in archaeology on rock art, depositions, sacrifices, burial practices and more. The paper also tests how speculative methods can be a way of approaching more-than-human exposedness, situatedness and agentiality. It makes an argument that while it is important to study the entanglement of bodies as material-semiotic phenomena, it is of equal importance to also address questions on inequalities and injustices, and who carries the burden in particular situated entanglements and thereby move beyond the study of entanglement on its own.

Authors:   Synergy University, Gumerov Emil A. , Alekseeva Tamara V. ,   Synergy University
Published: December 2021

The development of the digital economy in the modern world requires solving the issue of security of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) applications. A large number of distributed, network-based, IIoT devices managed by intelligent programs (software agents) require protection. A successful attack on any IIoT device will lead to hacking of the IIoT application and to large financial losses, as well as to the termination of the IIoT application, therefore, the research topic is relevant. The purpose of this article is to radically solve the security problem of the IIoT application by developing a blockchain architecture of the application. The authors were tasked with investigating all aspects of the blockchain system that ensure the security of IIoT application devices. The peculiarity of the blockchain system is that its participants are software agents that control the application devices. As a result of the research, the concept of the blockchain architecture of the IIoT application is proposed. He mechanisms of consensus of intelligent programs of IIoT devices as equal active participants of the blockchain network are investigated. The consensus mechanism and the cryptographic system of the distributed registry of the blockchain network increase the information security of the IIoT application. The synergistic effect of the blockchain system and intelligent systems of software agents of IIoT application devices significantly increases the efficiency of the solution. Intelligent systems of software agents and IIoT applications are effectively trained on the blockchain platform, and as a result, we get a decentralized supercomputer in the form of a blockchain system.
NDT of Composites Based on Active Infrared Thermography and Ultrasound Testing
Authors: Krstulović-Opara Lovre , Bagavac Petra , Božanić Antun , Domazet Željko
Published: December 2021

Composite materials, such as glass and carbon reinforced ones, are characterized by inhomogeneous structure that requires non destructive testing based on uncommon evaluation methods. The presented approach is based on the active infrared thermography, supported by the A-scan ultrasound testing. The heat wave propagation induced by halogen or xenon bulbs, due to the differences in thermal conductivity, reveals material structure and anomalies. In our previous work we have developed several signal processing and depth evaluation methods, but the real engineering approach requires additional approval testing methods such as the A-scan ultrasound is. The A-scan ultrasound, based on the low frequency probe, enables approval of anomalies located by infrared thermography. The active infrared thermography, as a full field method, enables evaluation of the whole scanned area. The A-scan, as a point-wise method, does not provide the image of whole area of interest. By combining these two methods, robust and reliable approach to analysis of composite structure is enabled.

The church is an important place for Christians to practice their faith. It has also become an important symbol to highlight the history memory of the village in the ethnic areas of the North Sino-Myanmar Boundary. Christianity was introduced into Nu people for nearly one hundred years, Christian faith has become an important part of its cultural tradition. A history of the construction of the Christian church is the history of the Christian faith. To explore the process of the construction, abolishment and reconstruction of the Christian church is to reveal the dynamic change process of the Christian faith from the outside to the native. Taking the Christian church in Laomudeng which is a village of Nu people as an example, this paper aims to explore the Socio-cultural implications of “Christian localization” by presenting the religious practices of Nu Christians in building churches in different history periods.

Authors: XUE Qianlu , FANG Weilin
Published: December 2021

The May 4th Movement of 1919 is a significant period of ideological change in Chinese modern history, and in it is during this time that the ideological enlightenment of modern Chinese women made its debut. Led by modern intellectuals, they, from all angles, criticized the traditional social structure, traditional etiquette and feudal family system hindering the liberation and development of women, and further discussed the emancipation of women in terms of ideological education, economic independence, family status, freedom of marriage, ethics, social communication, as well as other relevant social issues. The intense exchange of ideas influenced public opinion, provoking enormous responses from all sections of society, particularly from women. Based on real educational and economic issues concerning women, combined with theories, real thoughts and practices, and carried out with a series of practical social reform activities, the ideological emancipation of women in the May 4th Movement of 1919 laid a solid foundation for the transition of traditional women to modern women, thus becoming the source of ideological emancipation of modern women in China.

Objective. Painful diabetic neuropathy (PDN) is a prevalent debilitating consequence of diabetes mellitus with lack of satisfactory therapeutic options. Methylcobalamin (MeCbl) is one of vitamin B12 analogs with known neurotrophic effects. We aimed to determine if MeCbl can relieve PDN. Materials and methods. This was a randomized (1:1) double-blind placebo-controlled trial involving PDN patients. Treatment and control group received daily 12.5 mg oral amitriptyline bid with either 500 µg of intravenous MeCbl or saline injection given on alternating days, respectively, for a 9-consecutive day period. PDN was assessed with douleur neuropathique 4 (DN4) questionnaire. Numeric pain rating scale (NPRS) was used to monitor pain intensity and treatment response. All investigators and patients were kept blinded throughout the study period. Outcomes. 42 patients, 21 on each arm had completed the study. The NPRS reduction can already be observed as early as day 2 post-intervention. Both the treatment and control group demonstrated sustained reduction of NPRS by almost one point per each time point of evaluation in the first three days (p<0.001). NPRS reduction remained until the end of the study period. The treatment group had a significantly lower NPRS score by 1.29 than that of the control group during the entire study period (95% CI -1.84 – -0.75; p < 0.001). Treatment group experienced significantly higher NPRS reduction when compared with control (4.19±1.54 vs. 2.1± 0.83; 95% CI 1.32-2.87; p < 0.001), i.e. 62.6% from baseline. Conclusions. MeCbl significantly and safely relieved PDN in a relatively rapid onset.

Background. Medical students have a significant role in improving new perspective about stem cell application in treatment of incurable diseases; such as degenerative neurologic disorders. Methods. In this descriptive cross-sectional study conducted in 2019-2020, 424 medical students at Guilan University of Medical Sciences responded to a questionnaire. The questionnaire was included the questions about knowledge of medical students about application of stem cells in neurologic disorders and stem cells donation and their attitude as well. Exclusion criteria were reluctance to participate in study and less than 20% response to questionnaire. The convenience sampling method was used. Inclusion criteria were being a medical student and willingness to participate in the project. Data were analyzed using SPSS 20 by Pearson correlation, independent student t, one-way ANOVA, U-Mann-Whitney. Results. 49.5% and 43.2% of participants had very low and low knowledge about using the stem cell. The higher score of knowledge was related to higher education periods. 70.3% of medical students had moderate attitude toward using stem cell. Only 17% of them had known the state agencies and private centers of donation. 70.5% had moderate knowledge and 55.2% had moderate attitude toward the stem cell donation. There was a correlation between the knowledge and attitude toward its donation (p = 0.004, r = 0.14). Knowledge about stem cells donation had correlation with the knowledge about its application (p = 0.001, r = 0.161). Conclusion. Although the majority of medical students have very low knowledge about stem cell application in treatment of neurologic disorders, but their attitude toward using stem cell was moderate.

In order to verify the concordance of the bone development indices (SMI) estimated on the hand and fist radiograph by the method of Fishman (1982) and the indices of development of the cervical vertebrae (CVMS), estimated on the profile teleradiography by the method of Baccetti (2002), was conducted a cross-sectional study on a group of 150 subjects (89 girls and 61 boys), aged 8-18 years. Based on the existing data in the literature and taking into account the average ages at which the SMI and CVMS stages were reached in the research group, a hypothesis of correspondence between SMI and CVMS stages in the pubertal stages was issued and this hypothesis was statistically verified using the coefficient Cohen k. The obtained results (k = 0.82 for the girls 'group and k = 0.67 for the boys' group) confirm the concordance of the SMI and CVMS indices within the researched group and validate the correspondence hypothesis issued.
