Authors: Dharma Gede Agus Susila
Published: December 2024

The research aims to analyze the relationship between Body Mass Index (BMI), CTDIvol, and DLP in head CT scan examinations at Bunga Emas Primary Clinic, Denpasar, with the goal of understanding the influence of CTDIvol and DLP on BMI in head CT scans at Bunga Emas Primary Clinic, Denpasar. This study employs a quantitative research design with an experimental approach conducted at Bunga Emas Primary Clinic, Denpasar, from April to May 2023. The study population consists of all individuals who underwent head CT scan examinations, with a sample size of 30 individuals selected from Bunga Emas Primary Clinic, Denpasar. Data were recorded in a worksheet for subsequent calculations. Based on the research findings, it was determined that there is no influence of BMI on CTDIvol and DLP values. Considering several statistical tests conducted, such as the Spearman correlation test, which yielded a p-value (2-tailed) of 0.120 (p > 0.05) for BMI with respect to CTDIvol, and a p-value (2-tailed) of 0.320 (p > 0.05), indicating that the null hypothesis (H0) is accepted while the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is rejected. This is likely due to the head having less variation in size and composition compared to other body parts, such as the chest or abdomen.

Published: December 2024

Abstract
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has provided patients who have been deemed high risk, or inoperable by conventional surgical valve replacement, with another method of having an aortic valve replacement without the need for major open-heart surgery.

We report in this case a TAVI via a transaortic approach on a 75-year-old woman who had no amenable peripheral vascular access for a transfemoral approach. Therefore, a transaortic approach was deemed appropriate.

This was the first performance of a TAVI via transaortic approach reported in Trinidad and Tobago and it illustrated a safe and effective strategy for TAVI in high-risk patients without eligible femoral access and severe aortic stenosis.

Published: December 2024

A cross-sectional study involving microbiological analysis was conducted from March 2021 to August 2021 in Jigjiga town to isolating and identifying Salmonella and E. coli from raw meats of camels and bovines slaughtered at the Jigjiga municipal abattoir and assessing possible associated related risk factors for the isolates. A total of 384 examined samples for the presence of Salmonella and E. coli. From the total samples examined, 64 (16.7%) and 44 (11.5%. were found to be E. coli and Salmonella positive respectively. Out of the 199 meat samples taken from camel, 31 (15.6%) and 32 (16.1%) were found positive for Salmonella and E. coli respectively while a total 185 meat samples of bovines, 13 (7%) and 32 (17%) were found positive for Salmonella and E. coli, respectively. In the univariable logistic regression analysis result, Salmonella revealed a statistically significant difference among different ages (OR (CI) = 2.36 (1.195–4.679); p-value = 0.013). The multivariable regression analysis showed there was no statistically significant difference between the two sex groups (OR (CI) = 2.01 (0.892–4.544); p = 0.092). In an univariable logistic regression analysis result, the odds of meat contamination in young-aged animals with E. coli were three times higher than in adult animals, showing a statistically significant difference (OR = 2.83 (1.567–5.095; p = 0.001). The prevalence of E. coli was higher in animals with poor body condition (31.9%), followed by medium (15.5%) and good body-conditioned animals (1.8%). In the multivariable logistic regression analysis, the odds of contamination of samples with E. coli from poor-body condition animals were 22 times higher than samples taken from good-body condition animals (OR (CI) = 21.8 (5.022 - 95.059); p = 0.000). To prevent cross-contamination of Salmonella and E. coli, hygiene must be improved, standardized procedures, and training programs should be implemented. Further studies on molecular characterization and serotyping of these species are also needed.
ELETROFISIOLOGIA DA VISÃO DO GATO
Authors: Rodrigues de Souza Mary Anne , dos Santos Emily , Soares Santos Mariana , Raquel Santos Fontes Livia
Published: December 2024

O objetivo do presente estudo foi realizar uma revisão de literatura sobre a eletrofisiologia da visão de gato, abrangendo as particularidades anatômicas e funcionais do sistema visual, bem como explicar como ocorre o processo de formação da imagem e estruturas envolvidas. O sistema visual é formado pelo bulbo ocular e suas três camadas, pálpebras, terceira pálpebra e conjuntiva. O olho do gato é menor, quando visto de forma anteroposterior, porém, a córnea, câmara anterior e lente apresentam-se de maior tamanho ocupando 10% do bulbo ocular. O felino possui ótima capacidade de adaptação e eficiência visual noturna, fato este explicado pela presença de estruturas como o tapetum lucidum, a pupila em forma de fenda, córnea com grande curvatura, retina com sensibilidade 7 vezes maior que a retina humana. A luz penetra através da córnea, ganhando a fenda pupilar e chega ao cristalino, que em conjunto com o humor aquoso e o humor vítreo tem como função a transmissão e refração do raio luminoso sobre a retina. Esse estímulo luminoso precisa atravessar a retina, ser detectado por fotorreceptores para ocorrer a transmissão pelo nervo óptico e trato óptico ao tálamo, e depois através da via de radiações ópticas. A retina é responsável pela visão. Trata-se de uma estrutura fotossensorial complexa, considerada uma projeção do cérebro e possui fotorreceptores (cones e bastonetes).
Prognostic significance of radiological parameters in patients with acute pulmonary embolism: a retrospective observational study
Authors: Kısa Özgür Emre , Korkut Mustafa , Söyüncü Seçgin , İşkorur Caner
Published: December 2024

Aims: Acute pulmonary embolism (PE) is a significant global cause of mortality. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic relationship between radiological parameters obtained from computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) in patients with acute PE. Methods: This study included 227 patients diagnosed with PE who underwent CTPA upon admission to a tertiary emergency department (ED) between January 1, 2019, and July 1, 2021. We compared 24 patients (10.6%) who died with 203 patients (89.4%) who survived. Clot burden was assessed by calculating the Qanadli score (Qscore) from CTPA images. The study evaluated several radiological parameters, including the Qanadli score (Qscore), main pulmonary artery (PA) diameter, ascending aorta (AO) diameter, AO/PA ratio, right ventricular (RV) to left ventricular (LV) diameter ratio (RV/LV ratio), and inferior vena cava (IVC) reflux. Short-term mortality within one month was tracked, and mortality rates were determined accordingly.
Results: The Qscore demonstrated limited accuracy in predicting mortality, with a sensitivity of 41% and a specificity of 44% (AUC: 0.415, 95% CI 0.312–0.518, p=0.175). IVC reflux was an indicator of RV dysfunction. Compared to surviving patients, those who died exhibited a lower incidence of IVC reflux, with a statistically significant difference (p=0.047). The RV/LV and AO/PA ratios did not show significant associations with mortality. In contrast, AO and PA diameters were found to be predictors of mortality, with sensitivities of 66% and 61%, and specificities of 66% and 62%, respectively (AO: AUC 0.683, 95% CI 0.562–0.804, p=0.03; PA: AUC 0.651, 95% CI 0.514–0.788, p=0.016).
Conclusion: Overall, the study concluded that the Qscore from CTPA was not a reliable prognostic indicator of mortality in PE patients admitted to the emergency department. In contrast, the diameters of the AO and PA emerged as potential predictors of mortality.

In the studies, it was determined that simulation-standardized patient practice is an effective practice method in developing communication skills competence. In addition, it was found that the standard patient simulation application had a positive reflection on students' mental health care in the clinical environment.
Conclusion: In this systematic review, it is noteworthy that although simulation and standardized patient practice in psychiatric nursing practice education have an important contribution to the development of psychiatric nursing skills, research is limited. In this direction, it is important to conduct experimental studies on simulation and standardized patient practice in psychiatric nursing education.
Iraqi EFL Learners’ Performance of English Grammatical Morphemes
Authors: Fadhil Rana Abdelwahid , Sahab Abeer Adil
Published: December 2024

The performance of grammatical morphemes is an important part of language use because it focuses on the shape of the gained language. When compared to bound morphemes, it is widely assumed that free morphemes are performed with greater ease. The gaining of grammatical morphemes in the English language comes an expected sequence. However, for Iraqi learners, an acquisition of grammatical Morphemes in English may present challenges due to differences in the structure of their native language. For example, Arabic is a Semitic language that has a different grammatical structure than English. As a result, Iraqi learners may struggle with the order in which they acquire English grammar morphemes. The current study examines how Iraqi EFL learners develop their performance in {-D pp}, {-ING vb}, {-D pt}, {-ER cp}, {-EST sp}, {-S sg ps}, {-S 3d}, {-S pl}, {-S pl ps}, over one academic year. The study also examines whether Iraqi EFL learners comply with the identical sequence of performance at comparable ages and educational terms. It also aims to differentiate between Iraqi males and females' English language learners based on grammatical morphemes. The study was based on an essay writing test administered to 20 third-year students. The students studyEnglish as a foreign language at the Department of English, College of Education for Humanities, University of Anbar in the academic year 2022-2023. The conclusions reveal the percentage of identifying the relevant grammatical morphemes. The percentages display that the performance of {-Spl} more fulfilled, with (%55.8), than {-S 3d} (%9.08), {-S sg ps} (%2.4), {-S pl ps} (%0), {-D pt} (%41.49), {-D pp} (%11.28), {-ING vb} (%14.8), {-ER cp} (%3.1), {-EST sp} (%1.6) respectively. Furthermore, the findings indicate that Iraqi females' English language learners outperform males in these grammatical morphemes. According to the study, Iraqi EFL students should write various articles that include all grammatical morphemes as well as try different exercises and examples of grammatical morphemes in order to develop and improve their performance

This paper presents ground calibration and orthogonality correction methods for the tri-axis fluxgate magnetometer (FGM), named as adaptive in-phase magnetometer (AIMAG), aboard the CAS500-3 satellite. The orthogonality errors of the FGM among the axes can lead to significant inaccuracies in magnetic field measurements. In this study, we employed Helmholtz coils and an autocollimator to apply controlled magnetic fields and adjust the magnetometer’s alignment. By deriving the correction matrix, we could transfer the sensor axes to the ideal orthogonal coordinate system. We validated the correction method by analyzing the sensor’s output under various magnetic field conditions. This correction method is expected to enhance the in-flight magnetic field measurements of the CAS500-3 satellite.

Experiencias estudiantiles de secundaria durante los años 60 en Córdoba, Argentina
Authors: Molina Guadalupe , Servetto Silvia María
Published: December 2024

Este artículo presenta avances de un proyecto de investigación que aborda las experiencias estudiantiles en el marco de las transformaciones de los procesos de escolarización en la escuela secundaria en Córdoba, Argentina, desde mediados del Siglo XX hasta la actualidad. Particularmente se abordará la década de los años 60 para analizar, en el marco del fuerte incremento de la matrícula escolar, las experiencias de jóvenes estudiantes de una escuela secundaria de una zona residencial de la ciudad. Desde una perspectiva histórica cultural, abordamos la escuela como espacio de encuentro de sujetos con recorridos heterogéneos que logran forjar lazos de amistades y compañerismo y construyen una sociabilidad novel, mixta y distendida, recordada por las personas entrevistadas, de manera gozosa, festiva, divertida. Al mismo tiempo, y al calor de acontecimientos políticos nodales como el golpe de estado de 1966, la muerte del Che Guevara y el Cordobazo, se genera una experiencia estudiantil que produjouna subjetividad juvenil, de carácter político militante, desde apropiaciones discursivas del momento y dinámicas de relaciones entre pares con dos componentes centrales: la política y el género.
¿Unificación e integración? La educación secundaria durante los gobiernos de la Democracia Cristiana y la Unidad Popular (Chile, 1964-1973)
Authors: Neut Aguayo Sebastián , Matamoros Fernández Christián
Published: December 2024

El objetivo del presente artículo es comprender las propuestas y políticas en educación secundariallevadas a cabo durante los gobiernos de la Democracia Cristiana (1964-1970) y de la Unidad Popular(1970-1973), considerando los intentos por dotarla de una nueva estructura política. Estos tendierontanto a la clarificación jurídica y administrativa de tal ciclo educacional (“unificación”), así como alintento por superar sus lastres segregativos (“integración”). El gobierno de la DC puso mucha másatención a la primera dimensión, mientas que el segundo, a la última. El análisis desarrollado permiteconcluir que, a pesar de las diferentes constelaciones ideológico-educacionales respectivas, existió una cierta línea de continuidad respecto a las políticas y proyectos educacionales para el nivel secundario en ambos gobiernos, centrada en la organización, racionalización y coordinación de la estructura y el curriculum, pero al mismo tiempo existió un intento de profundización de los niveles de integración de las modalidades de enseñanza secundaria durante el gobierno de la Unidad Popular, lo que iba en sintonía con la superación de la segregación de clases que presentaba la sociedad chilena. Las fuentes principales para llevar a cabo este estudio son de carácter oficial, es decir, emanadas por los respectivos gobiernos.
El alojamiento escolar y la expansión de la Educación Común en el campo argentino (1882-1939)
Authors: Montenegro Guadalupe
Published: December 2024

En Argentina, las políticas implementadas con el objetivo de expandir la educación común fueron desafiadas por la extensión territorial y la dispersión poblacional característica de las regiones rurales. A fin de salvar estos obstáculos, desde mediados del siglo XIX se ensayaron distintas modalidades organizacionales, cuya conveniencia fue ampliamente debatida hasta entrado el siglo XX.
Este artículo describe el proceso histórico de emergencia de una de estas modalidades, el alojamiento escolar destinado a niños y niñas residentes en las regiones rurales dispersas, así como los argumentos que se esgrimieron a favor y en oposición. Para ello, se analizan documentos correspondientes al período 1880-1938; las publicaciones realizadas en la revista El Monitor de la Educación Común y actas de sesiones legislativas elaboradas durante el tratamiento de normativas específicas.
El alojamiento escolar no fue contemplado en las normativas nacionales decimonónicas que regularon la educación común, por lo que su funcionamiento se reglamentó posteriormente, a fines de la década de 1930, con la aprobación de la Ley de Protección a los Niños en Edad Escolar. El consenso producido en torno a esta modalidad de escolarización se produjo en el marco de la persistencia del analfabetismo y del impacto de la crisis económica y social, que se agudizó a partir de 1929, e hizo que ingresaran nuevos elementos al debate. En este proceso se esgrimieron argumentos vinculados con los efectos formativos de estas instituciones, la factibilidad de su desarrollo, el arraigo de la población en el campo y la asistencia social de la niñez pobre.

One evening in April 2024, Hafiz and his father, Mr. Seeni, were seated at the Richiamor Cafe, enjoying their lattes and hot chocolates while contemplating their next move."Father," Hafiz said excitedly, "As you know, we've established a strong presence in the local market since we transitioned our street food business to instant food using retort technology. Our sales have surged to RM100,000 within just a year of implementing this technology, highlighting our potential for entering the international market." Mr. Seeni expressed his agreement with the excellent idea, noting that his research indicates a rising interest in Asian cuisine within the global market, particularly among younger consumers who are becoming more open to specific dishes such as mee sotong. Nevertheless, he emphasized the necessity for developing strategies that effectively tackle the distinct challenges and opportunities associated with each segment of the international market. Hafiz added, “At present, there are no products like ours available on the international market. We must take advantage of these opportunities. His father nodded in agreement. “I believe in you, my son. To succeed, you need the strength of character to pursue your ambitions and dreams. Don’t be afraid; just proceed with careful planning for the sake of our family business, which has been around since 1977.”
ARCHIMEDES OPTIMIZATION ALGORITHM-BASED PITCH ANGLE CONTROL IN WIND ENERGY SYSTEMS
Authors: Perçin Hasan Bektaş , Çalışkan Abuzer
Published: December 2024

Variable-speed wind energy systems equipped with permanent magnet synchronous generators (PMSGs) have become a common configuration in wind energy industry. Appropriate pitch angle control is designed to limit the output power of the system by adjusting the pitch angle of the wind turbine blades at higher wind speeds. This approach reduces mechanical stress on the turbine, extends its operating speed range, and increases the overall lifespan. Intelligent control methods, such as optimization algorithms, are notable for their fast and reliable control performance; however, their use in pitch angle control applications remains relatively limited. In this study, a pitch angle control based on the Archimedes Optimization Algorithm (AOA) was developed and analyzed using MATLAB/Simulink. The proposed control system demonstrated fast and stable performance at higher wind speeds. Additionally, the control mechanism was set to deactivated at lower wind speeds to optimize energy efficiency for varying conditions. When compared to other conventional control methods, alternative approaches generally achieve an average accuracy of %75 to %80. However, the proposed control method performed a significantly faster convergence speed and achieved an accuracy rate exceeding %90.
Samiri Tevratı'nın Kökenine Dair Araştırmalar Üzerine Bir Değerlendirme
Authors: Gerçekcioğlu Fatma
Published: December 2024

Samiri Tevratı’nın tarihsel olarak incelenmesi, hem kutsal metinlerin geçirdiği değişim ve dönüşüm süreçlerini anlamak açısından hem de aynı bölgede neşet etmiş olsa da farklı dini yorumlara sahip toplulukların kendi kimliklerini nasıl şekillendirdiklerini anlamak açısından önem taşımaktadır. Samiri topluluğu tarafından kutsal kabul edilen bu Tevrat’ın kökenine ilişkin çeşitli teoriler bulunmaktadır. Samiriler tarafından en eski ve saygın nüshalardan biri olduğu kabul edilen Abişa Nüshası üzerinde yapılan araştırmalar bu topluluğun kutsal metinleri koruma ve nesilden nesile aktarma hususunda nasıl bir yol izlediğine dair ipuçları vermektedir.
Bu çalışmada Samiri Tevratı’nın kökenine ilişkin iddialar, Abişa Nüshası ve Ölü Deniz Yazmalarının keşfinden sonraki bilimsel araştırmalar bağlamında tarihsel olarak değerlendirilmektedir. Bu doğrultuda Samiri Tevratı’nın yazım süreci, tarihsel gelişimi ve korunma yöntemleri, Yahudi kutsal metin geleneklerinden Masoretik Metin, Septuagint ve Ölü Deniz Yazmaları gibi metinlerle karşılaştırmalı olarak incelenecektir. Ölü Deniz Yazmaları Samiri Tevratı’nın kökenleri üzerine yapılan araştırmalara büyük katkı sunmaktadır. Araştırmamızda Samiri Tevratı’nın Septuagint ve Ölü Deniz Yazmaları ile olan benzerlikleri incelenirken, onun Masoretik Metin’den türetildiğine ilişkin iddialar yeniden değerlendirilecektir.
