Purpose:To assess the prevalence of atrial fibrillation (AF) and use of antithrombotic agents in adult patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).

Materials and Methods.We consecutively enrolled all ACS patients (n=1155) who were hospitalized in two Moscowbased percutaneous coronary intervention centers (each center performs over 500 PCIs a year) between October 2017 and February 2018. AF was diagnosed in 204 patients (17.7%). The risk of thromboembolic complications was assessed using the CHA2DS2-VASc Score. The risk of hemorrhagic complications was assessed using the HAS-BLED Score. The data were processed using StatSoft Statistica 10.0 and IBM SPSS Statistics v.23 software.

Results. The prevalence of diagnosed AF was 13.6%, while the prevalence of undiagnosed AF was 4.1%. Of the 179 discharged patients with AF, only 2 had a low risk of ischemic stroke (IS). One hundred and fifty patients (83.8%) eligible for oral anticoagulant therapy received oral anticoagulants. Patients with diagnosed AF were administered oral anticoagulants (OACs) significantly more often than patients with undiagnosed AF [125 (91.9%) vs. 25 (58.1%), р<0.001]. Novel oral anticoagulants (NOACs) were administered four times more often than vitamin K antagonists [120 (80.0%) vs. 29 (19.3%), р<0.001]. Rivaroxaban was used in 51.3% of cases. Of the 29 patients treated with warfarin, only 3 (10.3%) achieved the target international normalized ratio (INR) at discharge. Of the 107 patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), 77 patients (80%) received an OAC and two antiplatelet agents (with 74% receiving this three-agent therapy for one month), 11 patients (10.3%) received an OAC and an antiplatelet agent, and 18 patients (16.8%) received two antiplatelet agents. The only antiplatelet agent used as part of the three-agent therapy was clopidogrel. The three-agent therapy without PCI was administered in 43.1% of cases.

Conclusion.We found that the prevalence of AF in patients with ACS was high. The fact that doctors administered NOACs suggests that they are aware of the need to use these agents to prevent thromboembolic complications in AF patients.
Gender and Age Characteristics of Mortality From Diseases of the Circulatory System of the Moscow region. Data 2016 year
Authors: Glezer M. G.
Published: January 2019

Contribution of diseases of the circulatory system to total mortality of the population remains high. Therefore it is necessary to study factors with most substantial impact on regional morbidity and mortality for elaboration of targeted programs of preventive measures aimed at definite population groups.

Purposeof this study was to perform analysis of differences of mortality from cardiovascular diseases (VVD) of Moscow region inhabitants of various gender and age.

Materials and methods.Data on 2016 mortality of Federal Service of State Statistics (Rosstat) and territorial service of state statistics of the Moscow Region were used in this analysis. Analysis was conducted for men and women divided in age groups ≤50, 50–59, 60–69, and ≥50 years. Diseases were classified in accordance with 10th Revision of International Statistical Classification of Diseases (ICD10).

Results. Population of the Moscow Region territory on January 1, 2016, amounted 7 318 647 (men 46.2, women 53.8 %, persons of working age 58.9 %). Contribution in the mortality structure of chronic ischemic heart disease (IHD) and cerebro-vascular diseases in women was greater than in men (80 vs. 68 %, respectively, р<0.0001). Contribution of acute IHD, IHD unrelated heart diseases, and vascular diseases in men was significantly greater than in women (30 vs. 18 %, respectively, р<0.0001). In the age group over working age mortality indexes were substantially higher compared with those in working age. In men these indexes became 10–20 times while in women – 30–130 times higher.

Conclusion. Despite positive dynamics of mortality from diseases of the circulatory system (45.3 % lowering from 2008 to 2016) it is necessary to strengthen efforts directed to correction risk factors of IHD and implementation of timely diagnostics and correction of IHD unrelated diseases.

Tiña incógnita facial. Informe de dos casos
Authors: Lizardo Castro Gustavo , Cerrato Hernández Karen , Cruz Enamorado Bessy
Published: January 2019

ANTECEDENTES: La tiña incógnita es una infección dermatofítica, con una morfología modificada debido al uso inapropiado de esteroides tópicos, sistémicos o inhibidores de la calcineurina. Este problema es más frecuente en casos de tiñas faciales y constituye un reto diagnóstico que requiere historia clínica minuciosa, examen físico y estudios complementarios. En países tropicales, en vías de desarrollo, las dermatofitosis son un problema de gran prevalencia debido a múltiples factores: clima cálido, hacinamiento, contacto con animales y malos hábitos de higiene. Honduras no es la excepción y, además de los factores mencionados, la venta de medicamentos sin prescripción favorece la automedicación. Otro factor contribuyente es la no disponibilidad de exámenes de laboratorio en la mayor parte de los centros asistenciales estatales, lo que dificulta la confirmación diagnóstica de una dermatosis.CASOS CLÍNICOS: Se comunican dos casos de tiña facial incógnita en dos pacientes del sexo femenino en edad pediátrica ocasionadas por Trichophyton verrucosum y tratadas con la combinación de antimicóticos tópicos y sistémicos con excelentes resultados.CONCLUSIÓN: Es imporante concientizar a los profesionales de la salud acerca del riesgo del uso inapropiado de esteroides y de inhibidores de la calcineurina en dermatosis eritematoescamosas, sobre todo las faciales.

Mediating Effects of Organizational Citizenship Behavior on Organizational Performance: Empirical Analysis of Public Employees in Guadalajara, Mexico
Authors: Andrew Simon A. , León-Cázares Filadelfo
Published: January 2019

While much has been written about the importance of recruiting and retaining employees displaying voluntary and spontaneous actions, few have explored the mediating effect of citizenship behaviors on organizational performance. This study examines the direct and indirect effects of transformational leadership style, public service motivation, and organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) on public organization performance. It is hypothesized that when employees perceived that a public organization is practicing a transformational leadership style (TLS), they are likely to have a favorable view on the performance of their organization, but the effect is indirect and mediated by OCB. At the same time, if employees have a strong desire to serve and improve the welfare of others, they are likely to perform beyond their job requirements and thus, likely to express a positive view on the organizational performance. A structural equation modeling was used to examine the perceptions of 1,016 public employees in the Guadalajara Metropolitan Area, Mexico. The results suggest that Mexican public employees display OCB (extra role behaviors) that will be associated with a better public organizational performance because of the higher levels of PSM (public service motivation). TLS are also associated to a better organizational performance as well as to perform OCBs. But we did not find the mediator role of OCB between TLS and the organizational performance.

COMMUNITY TOURISM AND RURAL DEVELOPMENT IN KASHMIR
Authors: Mir Suheel Rasool
Published: January 2019

Tourism is one of the world's fastest-growing industries, and for many countries, especially those in the developing world, it holds promising economic backing. Not only does tourism create job opportunities and possibilities for economic development, but it can also do so in regions having few other economic resources.. For these reasons, many countries, mainly in the developing world, have been proactive to build up tourism industries as part of national development strategies.

Although Kashmir is acknowledged as the heaven on earth because of its abundant charming spots and attractions despite that Jammu and Kashmir is an industrially backward state without a strong industrial stand. Community Based Tourism (CBT), a future prospect, is a sort of sustainable tourism that encourages pro-poor strategies at community level and helps to eliminate poverty in rural areas of Kashmir. CBT initiatives intend to involve local population in the management and supervision of micro tourism projects as a means of alleviating poverty and providing a substitute income source for community members. CBT initiatives also encourage respect for local traditions, culture and natural heritage. Tourism offers many advantages to rural communities. Community Tourism has potential and can be used as a strategy for Rural Development.

The present study will help to find out the importance of community tourism and rural development in the Valley of Kashmir. Finally some suggestions will be given so as to enhance community tourism development in Kashmir Valley.
2018 ESC/ESH guidelines about new methods of treatment of hypertension — “DEVICE-BASED TREATMENT”
Authors: Ripp T. M. , Mordovin V. F.
Published: January 2019

Arterial hypertension (HTN) needs new treatment methods, including invasive ones, because HTN has severe consequences and involves all regulating systems (neuro-cardio-renal/cerebral continuum). It is often associated with comorbid pathology (obesity, atherosclerosis, sleep disorder, diabetes mellitus, etc.). The paper presents a summary of the position of the European experts on some invasive methods of HTN treatment — “DEVICE-BASED TREATMENT” (DBT) in the section of new recommendations of the European Societies of Cardiology/Hypertension (2018 ESC/ESH Guidelines for the management of arterial hypertension), including carotid baroreceptor stimulation, renal denervation, arteriovenous fistula formation and other. The experts do not recommend to use DBT in routine practice, confirm high requirement and demand of clinical and basic investigations to prove their safety and efficiency.
Non-invasive methods for studying the dynamics of blood pressure
Authors: Ivanov S. Yu. , Bondarenko B. B.
Published: January 2019

The paper summarizes the main methods of automatic non-invasive assessment of the blood pressure (BP) dynamics. The advantages and disadvantages of BP measurement according to Korotkoff sounds and the oscillations in the brachial cuff are discussed. Currently, BP is measured during deflation of the cuff, while the pressure in the cuff should be inflated (by about 20–30 mm Hg) above the systolic BP. The BP level before measurement can be unknown, thereby increases the possibility of raising the pressure in the cuff above the optimum. In connection with this, recently, methods for determining BP during inflation of the cuff have been proposed. The BP value, determined both by Korotkov’s tone and by oscillometry during inflation, differs from that during the deflation of the cuff. The difference varies with age and BP and in a number of cases is clinically significant. The causes and consequences of such differences are discussed. In intensive care units and in operating rooms, continuous BP measurement is necessary. In comparison with the discrete measurement of BP, it allows to detect timely hypotension, to evaluate its duration, which improves the management of the patients. The invasive method of BP detection has known limitations and complications which stimulated the development of devices for non-invasive BP control. Despite the comparisons of the accuracy of such measurement methods, this issue continues to be debated. Thus, the methods of non-invasive control of BP level, discussed in this review, reflect both their advantages and limitations, which dictates the need for further research in this field.
Arterial hypertension management in patients over 80 years old: comment on the position agreement of the Russian experts
Authors: Platonov D. Yu. , Bel'diev S. N.
Published: January 2019

The article discusses four statements of the position agreement of the Russian experts on the treatment of arterial hypertension in patients over 80 years old, as well as in patients with senile asthenia. These statements consider recommendations on the threshold and target blood pressure levels, on the initial antihypertensive therapy (monotherapy or combination therapy), the initial doses of the drugs (low or high) in patients over 80 years old with or without senile asthenia. The authors believe that these statements require some correction as they do not fully correspond to the results of the HYVET trial. The level of evidence and recommendation class stated in the position agreement are disputable and give rise to doubt. The authors compare the position agreement by the Russian experts and European guidelines 2013 and present the evidence of the large randomized clinical trials and meta-analyses.

Background. Previous studies implicated cardiotonic steroids, including Na/K-ATPase inhibitor marinobufagenin (MBG), in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia (PE). Recently, we demonstrated that MBG induces fibrosis in cardiovascular tissues via mechanism involving inhibition of Fli1, a nuclear transcription factor and a negative regulator of collagen-1 synthesis.

Objective.We hypothesized that in human and rat PE, elevated MBG level is associated with development of fibrosis of umbilical arteries and rat thoracic aortae.

Design and methods.Twelve patients with PE (mean blood pressure (BP) 118 ± 4 mmHg; mean age 28 ± 2 years; mean gestation age 36 ± 1 weeks) and 12 gestational age-matched normal pregnant subjects (mean BP 92 ± 2 mmHg; mean age 26 ± 1 years; mean gestation age 37 ± 1 weeks) were enrolled in the clinical study. We tested 16 pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats. Hypertension was provoked in 8 rats by 1,8 % Na supplementation.

Results.PE in humans and rats was associated with the higher plasma MBG level and was associated with five-fold decrease in Fli-1 level and four-fold increase in collagen-1 level in the PE umbilical arteries vs. those from the normal subjects (p < 0,01). Isolated rings of umbilical arteries from the subjects with PE exhibited impaired response to the relaxant effect of sodium nitroprusside vs. control vessels (EC50 = 141 nmol/L vs. EC50 = 0,9 nmol/L; p < 0,001). Similar results were obtained for thoracic aorta of rats with experimental PE.

Conclusions. These results demonstrate that elevated MBG level is implicated in the development of fibrosis umbilical arteries in PE.
Triple fixed combination for hypertension treatment — a green light in the new european Guidelines 2018
Authors: Konradi A. O.
Published: January 2019

The majority of patients with stable arterial hypertension require combination therapy which is supported by the clinical evidence. The established target levels of blood pressure below 130/80 mmHg are challenging and demand multiple drug combinations in a single patient. Therefore, the use of dual and triple combination therapy is getting wider, and rational triple fixed combinations are highly relevant. The updated guidelines on the diagnostics, management and treatment of arterial hypertension of the European Society of Hypertension and the European Society of Cardiology confirm and recommend early and wider use of the fixed-dose drug combinations. The paper reviews the main practical issues of the use of combination therapy, including key questions of the change from free dose to fixed dose combinations and their rational choice.

Published: January 2019

This article presents a literature review on the history of the emergence of the concept of universal basic income (UBI) as an economic and social welfare policy, based on analytical, integrative, observational, and retrospective aspects. Subsequently, the analyzed documents were classified according to historical periods defined by the authors as follows: French Revolution, 19th century, 20th century, and 21st-century perspectives. The paper concludes that UBI, especially since the 19th century, have become a public policy option with high potential to improve social justice, particularly in contexts of high concentration of wealth and, even more, with the advent of automation and robotization processes that affect employment and, therefore, the well-being of societies in the 21st century.
El binomio formalidad/informalidad en el mercado de trabajo mexicano
Authors: Ramírez López Berenice P.
Published: January 2019

México se caracteriza por presentar marcados contrastes socioeconómicos: por un lado, forma parte de los veinte países industrializados; por otro, registra al 44 % de su población en la pobreza. Al considerar las características de su mercado de trabajo, se destaca que el 57 % de los ocupados son informales y el 50 % de la población tiene ingresos por debajo de la línea de bienestar. En este artículo se sostiene que el binomio formalidad/informalidad es funcional para el mantenimiento del capitalismo mexicano, y para su argumentación se desarrollan los siguientes aspectos: las diversas visiones sobre la informalidad, la utilidad del enfoque sobre la ocupación, la Encuesta Nacional de Ocupación y Empleo de México, el papel de la unidad económica de los hogares y la desigualdad y el mercado de trabajo.

NÉZŐPONT ÉS IDEOLÓGIA – A VÉSZKORSZAK ÁBRÁZOLÁSA TERSÁNSZKY JÓZSI JENŐ KÉT REGÉNYÉBEN
Authors: VARGA Zoltán Z.
Published: January 2019

Tersánszky Józsi Jenő két regénye, az 1947-ben megjelent III. Bandika a vészben, illetve az 1949-es Egy kézikocsi története a második világháborús magyar szerepvállalás egy különösen tragikus eseményét, az ún. vészkorszakot és Budapest ostromát teszi meg a fikció, keretének. Regényei a didaktikusság kockázatát is vállalva egy egész közösséget érintő morális kérdésben foglaltak állást, s vázoltak meggyőzési modellt és stratégiát a kollektív, traumatikus történelmi esemény mibenlétének és okainak feltárására. A tanulmány az elbeszélések narratív-poétikai eszközeinek elemzésével (a szerzői-elbeszélői nézőpont értékelő, „ideológiai” funkciója, a szereplők szólamainak közvetlen és közvetett értékszembeállítása, illetve eltérő frazeológiai kidolgozottsága; a műfaji modellekből átvett szereplői megszólalásmódok és karaktertípusok áthallásai stb.) arra világít rá, hogy miként szolgálják fikciós művek a (korabeli) olvasó indirekt meggyőzését, miként olvashatók az elbeszélések a közelmúlt történelmi eseményeinek még nyitott értelmezési terében egy ideológiailag nem megsemmisített álláspont (nácizmus, antiszemitizmus, fasizmus) elleni nyelvi-irodalmi támadásként. A regények nem-emberi címszereplőinek nézőpontja egyik esetben sem válik allegorikus ellenponttá, inkább a történet egészének familiarizációját szolgálja, a belőle kibontakozó nevetségesség és humor ellenpontozza a regény didaktikus társadalmi-politikai dialógusait, illetve a szereplők előre leosztott irodalmi zsánerekből vett alakjainak és tipizált társadalmi karaktereinek direkt ideológiai formáltságát, a szereplői beszédek és cselekvések megmutatásával kibontakozó argumentációt.

A tanulmány a bánáti Nagybecskerek példáján, az 1919-es év kulturális/irodalmi eseményeinek, megnyilatkozásainak, jelenségeinek számbavételével, valamint a releváns társadalmi háttéresemények felvázolásával helyezi értelmezési keretbe s mutatja be a kisebbségi vajdasági magyar irodalom kezdeti lépéseit, öneszmélésének első megnyilatkozásait, jellegzetességeit. Az egykori megyeszékhely írói, megfelelő intézményi háttér hiányában, valamint az 1918. december 1-jén létrejött Szerb–Horvát–Szlovén Királyság megszorító intézkedései mellett – nem csekély leleményességgel – műkedvelői körökben, informális asztaltársaságokban tudtak elsőként megnyilatkozni, s e műkedvelői háttérből bontakozhatott ki később a kisebbségi magyar lap- és könyvkiadás és virágozhatott fel a vajdasági magyar irodalom, amelynek egyik fontos tartópillérét éppen a nagybecskereki írók alkották. Nemcsak azért, mert 1919-ben ott látott napvilágot a vajdasági magyar irodalom első regénye (Tarkó János: Amíg a nagy vihar tombolt…), hanem azért is, mert e közösség úttörője volt a kisebbségi magyar irodalmi lapkiadásnak (Renaissance – 1920, Fáklya – 1922) és irodalmi szerveződésnek is (Ady Társaság – 1923).
AZ EMPÁTIA JELENSÉGE ÉS VAJDASÁGI JELLEGZETESSÉGEI
Authors: GRABOVAC Beáta
Published: January 2019

A tanulmány az empátia jelenségét és néhány ehhez kapcsolódó elméleti nézőpontot és fogalmat taglal. Az eddigi eredmények nemi eltérést mutatnak az empátia és a rendszerezés képességében: a nők többsége inkább empatikus, a férfiak pedig rendszerező elmével rendelkeznek Simon Baron-Cohen szerint. E vonalat követve mutatja be a munka az empátia (és a rendszerezés fogalmát), valamint az empátia mérésére ma gyakran alkalmazott módszereket is taglalja. Az empátiával kapcsolatos nemi különbségekre vonatkozó kutatási eredmények összegzése a további vizsgálódások előfeltétele. A tanulmány mindennek fényében kitér a magyar nyelvterületről származó, részben vajdasági eredményekre is, amelyek szintén alátámasztják az eddigi nemzetközi felismeréseket az empátia nemi alapú különbségeivel kapcsolatban.
EROTIKUS SZÖVEG ÉS POSZTHUMÁN OLVASÓGÉP
Authors: NÉMETH Zoltán
Published: January 2019

A tanulmány Csehy Zoltán Cage Pozsonyban című versének értelmezésére vállalkozik. Az interpretáció első része a vers címében található tulajdonneveket vizsgálja, majd pedig a címbe foglalt állítás referencializálhatóságának kérdésére tér ki. A továbbiakban szöveg és erotika, a vers és a megkötések, valamint a mű és a műfordítás kérdését tematizálja. Felveti a szöveg ideális olvasójának problematikáját, amelynek megválaszolásával a poszthumán olvasógép víziójáig jut el. Legerőteljesebben talán szöveg és zene kapcsolatára figyelhetünk fel Csehy művében, ennek kapcsán vetődnek fel a transzmediális átváltási műveletek kérdései is. A médiumok sokasága és egymásra kopírozása az érzékelés totalitásában ölt testet, vagyis a szöveg ideális olvasóját az emberin túlra helyezi.
MIT ÉR A MAGYAR PRÓZA, HA ANGOL?
Authors: MUDRICZKI Judit
Published: January 2019

A tanulmány arra a kérdésre keresi a választ, hogy minek köszönhető Szerb Antal regényeinek a népszerűsége a XXI. század elején az Egyesült Királyságban. Ennek érdekében előbb a londoni Pushkin Press kiadónál 2001 óta megjelent, Len Rix által készített angol fordítások szociokulturális közegének sajátosságait összegzi, majd egy kontrasztív szövegelemzés során a Lawrence Venuti által kulturális beíródásnak nevezett folyamat nyomát igyekszik kimutatni az Utas és holdvilágból és a Pendragon legendából idézett példák segítségével. Az elemzés arra világít rá, hogy a magyar és az angol szöveg közötti eltérések egy része egy olyan, a fordító által tudatosan alkalmazott honosító eljárás eredménye, ami a szöveghű fordítás helyett elsősorban az angol prózai hagyomány és az angolszász olvasó elvárása alapján alakítja ki a célnyelvi szöveget.
INAKTIVASI ENZIM PROTEASE PADA PUREE EDAMAME (Glycine max) MENGGUNAKAN TEKNIK PULSED ELECTRIC FIELD (PEF)
Authors: Ariyantini Mila Damanik , Fauzi Mukhammad , Jayus Jayus
Published: January 2019

Edamame (Glycine max) is easily damaged due to suspected enzyme content and microbial activity, so the ingredients must be consumed directly after blanching process. Selling value of rejected edamame is very low while the nutritional content is still quite good. To increase the edamame selling value, an alternative processing is needed which could maintain the edamame shelf life. The alternative way is creating edamame puree which has a longer shelf life without damaging the characteristics of edamame puree. Preservation of edamame puree was done by enzyme inactivation using Pulsed Electric Field (PEF) method. The results showed that PEF treatment could inactivate protease enzyme up to 88,5%, microbe 80-89%, antioxidant activity 44,5% and color 2,43%. The activity of edamame protease enzymewas significantly decreased at 45 kV voltage treatment; 30 seconds (0.38 mMol/minutes). Total microbial in puree edamame significantly decreased at 40 kV voltage treatment; 10 second (2,849 log Cfu / ml) and 40 kV voltage control; 20 second; 40 kV; 30 second; 45 kV; 10 second; 45 kV; 20 second; And 45 kV; 30 second (not growing). Antioxidant activityof edamame puree after PEF treatment was significantly decreased at 45 kV; 30 seconds (5.43%). In addition, treatment of PEF also maintains the hue angle puree edamame color remains in a yellowish greenish marked by a fixed value of susceptible 126 – 162. The value of hue angle edamame puree before and after PEF treatment ranged from 153.76 - 150.02.

The limitation to get clean water causes the community to utilize the existing water resources. One of the villages needs clean water during the dry season in Mojo Village Padang District, Regency Lumajang. The need for clean water was increasing as the population growth. The population of the Mojo Village was 3,901 people. The needs of clean water were supplied from Jirun wellspring. The Jirun wellspring was located 20 meters lower than a residential area. The government of Lumajang Regency installed a hydrant pump to solve the problem for distributing the clean water from Jirun wellspring to the residential area.

KARAKTERISTIK MOCAF (Modified Cassava Flour) BERDASARKAN METODE PENGGILINGAN DAN LAMA FERMENTASI
Authors: Putri Nia Ariani , Herlina Herlina , Subagio Achmad
Published: January 2019

MOCAF or modified cassava flour is one of modified starch products by biochemical process through fermentation. In fermentation process, lactic acid bacteria (LAB) had the important role to change the structure of the starch by producing enzymes that hydrolyzed the starch. Beside fermentation, the milling process would also damage the starch. The aim of this research was to know the influence of different milling method (wet- and dry milling) and fermentation time on MOCAF charcterization. Different milling process (wet and dry milling) and the long of fermentation process influenced the value of pH, water holding capacity, swelling power, sineresis, and morphology properties of MOCAF starch granule, but did not influence the whiteness and pasta clarity of MOCAF. MOCAF which was produced by wet milling process had lower pH (4,24-5,98), water holding capacity (122-162%) and swelling power (308-397%), and higher syneresis value than MOCAF which was produced by dry milling proces. Fermentation produced MOCAF with higher whiteness value and more damaged starch granule.

Published: January 2019

Berdasarkan penelitian, rata-rata Ibu tidak dapat memberikan ASI secara eksklusif bukan karena ibu tidak mau memberikan ASI tetapi ASI ibu yang keluar tidak lancar. Faktor yang mempengaruhi kelancaran ASI ibu dapat berasal dari tingkat stres. Suami memiliki sumbangan yang besar terhadap tingkat stress Ibu. Peran suami yang baik dapat menurunkan tingkat stres ibu dan meningkatkan rasa bahagia yang dapat melancarkan produksi ASI. Tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk mengetahui peran Ayah ASI yang dapat mempengaruhi keberhasilan praktik ASI eksklusif serta melihat bagaimana ekskpektasi ibu dan peran ayah dalam mendukung praktik ASI eksklusif.  Metode penelitian ini menggunakan desain cross sectional yang dilakukan di wilayah kerja Puskesmas 23 Ilir sebagai daerah terendah ASI eksklusif di Kota Palembang. Sampel adalah pasangan suami istri sebanyak 60 pasang yang terdiri dari 60 ibu dan 60 ayah. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa 68,3% ibu yang memberikan ASI secara eksklusif. Berdasarkan hasil statistic diketahui dukungan fisik antara sudut pandang ibu dan ayah yang paling tinggi gap nya (p-value < 0,001) sedangkan dukungan yang paling diinginkan ibu adalah dukungan emosional dengan skor 7,5. Para ayah atau suami memiliki peran yang besar terhadap keberhasilan ASI eksklusif . Ayah dapat lebih banyak memberikan dukungan emosional pada ibu seperti memuji, tidak memberikan kritik terhadap bentuk tubuh, dan membahagiakan hati ibu agar hormon oksitoksin dapat diproduksi dengan lancar dan ASI yang keluar akan ikut lancar.

3-Mercaptopropionic Acid as Corrosion Inhibitor for Carbon Steel in CO2 Aerated 1% NaCl Solution with Buffer Control-pH
Authors: Sunarya Yayan
Published: January 2019

In this research, 3-Mercaptopropionic acid (MPA) as corrosion inhibitor of carbon steel in CO2 aerated 1% NaCl solution with buffer pH adjustment has been studied by means of electrochemical impedance (EIS) and polarization (Tafel plot). MPA was found to be an effective carbon steel inhibitor. Percentage inhibition efficiency (IE %) calculated by both Tafel plot and EIS, ranged from 85% to 90%. MPA was found to affect the cathodic processes and act as cathodic-type inhibitors. Mechanism of inhibit corrosion by adsorption mechanism leads to the formation of a protective chemisorbed film on the metal surface film which suppresses the dissolution reaction and the hydrogen evolution reaction is activation controlled.

Published: January 2019

The moisture sorption isotherm data of gaplek flour fortified with red bead tree seed stored in a chamber, the relative humidity of chamber ranging from 10% to 97% regulated using a saturated salt solution, was determined at three temperatures 25°, 35°, and 45 °C. The experimental data used to determine the thermodynamic functions were isosteric heat of sorption, sorption entropy, and free energy changes. The sorption isosteric heats were determined by the application of the Clausius–Clapeyron equation. Isosteric heats of adsorption increased to maximum level and then declined with increase of moisture content. Adsorption entropy increased to maximum level and then declined with the increase of moisture content. The free energy changes increased with increase in moisture content. The spreading pressure increased with increasing water activity.
An Experimental Approach to Risk of Organ Rejection: Demonstration of False Immunosuppressant Results Due to Radiopaque Agents
Authors: Gönel Ataman , Koyuncu Ismail
Published: January 2019

Background: Immunosuppressant blood levels should be measured at regular periods in order to keep them within the therapeutic index. Although LC-MS/MS is preferred as a reliable method, some molecules like radiopaque agents in blood matrix may lead to false results. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of seven different radiopaque agents on immunosuppressant drugs. Methods: Seven different radiopaque agents were added into control materials containing tacrolimus, everolimus, sirolimus and cyclosporine A drugs. Measurements were performed by LC-MS/MS instrument. The amount of deviations from target values were calculated. Results: Immunosuppressant blood levels significantly changed after the administration of radiopaque agents. Seven different radiopaque products led to false negative results in tacrolimus and cyclosporine A levels at a rate of 19.77% to 44.45%. The smallest deviations were seen in everolimus levels with administration of RM6 (gadodiamide) and in sirolimus levels with RM1 (gadobutrol) at rates of 4.04% and 2.11%, respectively. The highest deviations were observed with RM3 (iohexol) administration in everolimus and sirolimus levels at rates of 153.72% and 171.41%, respectively. Conclusions: False immunosuppressant results associated with radiopaque agents may result in organ rejection. Preferring radiopaque agents that cause the least interference risk is important to reduce the organ rejection risk. However, the least risky method is to obtain samples for drug levels before contrast-enhanced imaging.

Authors: Giakoumakis Spyros , Skalieris Alexis
Published: January 2019

In this study a new approach for planning Micro-Catchment Water Harvesting (M.C.W.H.) systems for irrigation in semi-arid regions such as the Aegean islands, is presented. M.C.W.H. is a cheap solution for constructing infrastructure with zero energy cost in regions where water is scarce. The proposed approach introduces simple linear relationships for estimating the annual volume of water Vs collected mainly from the CA (Contributing Area), stored in the root zone (Infiltration Basin, IB), according to the annual  rainfall and runoff depths, after having determined the ratio of areas of micro-catchment components i.e., λ = ΑCA/ΑΙΒ and its whole area AMC This procedure was applied in Paros island of the Cyclades complex in the middle of the Aegean sea in east Mediterranean. Besides, income-cost analysis was performed via NPV method for almonds, peach and apricot trees.
How Does Contrast Media Affect Cardiac Markers and Coagulation Tests? Experimental Study
Authors: Tascanov Mustafa Begenc , Gönel Ataman
Published: January 2019

Background and objectives: The fact that the results of troponin and Nt-proBNP interfere from biotin caused some commercial firms to update their measurement methods. In particular, the clinical incompatibility of cardiac test results may affect the risk of morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study is to investigate the interference effects of 7 different contrast agents on cardiac markers (Troponin-I, Nt-proBNP, Mass CK-MB, CK, AST, LDH) and coagulation tests (PT, APTT). Materials and Methods: Seven different contrast medias were added into control materials by using interference protocol. Concentration of PT, APTT, CK, AST, LDH, Mass CK-MB, Troponin-I, Nt-proBNP were measured by Sysmex CS-2100, Abbott c16000, Siemens Centaur XP and AFİAS-6 analyzer. The amount of deviations from target values were calculated. Results: 7 different contrast medias caused negative interference in troponin levels between 57.43% and 62.87%. It was found that different contrast medias produced false negativity in the Nt-proBNP test ranging from 6.11% to 96.01%. Enzymes and coagulation tests have been less affected. Conclusions: Different contrast medias may cause false negative cTnI and Nt-proBNP. Therefore, the contrast medias which causes the least interference should be preferred. The results of samples taken in the first hour of contrast imaging should be interpreted with care.
The Energy Homeostasis Principle: Neuronal Energy Regulation Drives Local Network Dynamics Generating Behavior

Published: January 2019

A major goal of neuroscience is understanding how neurons arrange themselves into neural networks that result in behavior. Most theoretical and experimental efforts have focused on a top-down approach which seeks to identify neuronal correlates of behaviors. This has been accomplished by effectively mapping specific behaviors to distinct neural patterns, or by creating computational models that produce a desired behavioral outcome. Nonetheless, these approaches have only implicitly considered the fact that neural tissue, like any other physical system, is subjected to several restrictions and boundaries of operations.Here, we propose a new, bottom-up conceptual paradigm: The Energy Homeostasis Principle, where the balance between energy income, expenditure, and availability are the key parameters in determining the dynamics of the found neuronal phenomena from molecular to behavioral levels. Neurons display high energy consumption relative to other cells, with metabolic consumption of the brain representing 20% of the whole-body oxygen uptake, contrasting with this organ representing only 2% of the body weight. Also, neurons have specialized surrounding tissue providing the necessary energy which, in the case of the brain, is provided by astrocytes. Moreover, and unlike other cell types with high energy demands such as muscle cells, neurons have strict aerobic metabolism. These facts indicate that neurons are highly sensitive to energy limitations, with Gibb’s free energy dictating the direction of all cellular metabolic processes. From this activity, the largest energy, by far, is expended by action potentials and post-synaptic potentials; therefore, plasticity can be reinterpreted in terms of their energy context. Consequently, neurons, through their synapses, impose energy demands over post-synaptic neurons in a close loop-manner, modulating the dynamics of local circuits. Subsequently, the energy dynamics end up impacting the homeostatic mechanisms of neuronal networks. Furthermore, local energy management also emerges as a neural population property, where most of the energy expenses are triggered by sensory or other modulatory inputs. Local energy management in neurons may be sufficient to explain the emergence of behavior, enabling the assessment of which properties arise in neural circuits and how. Essentially, the proposal of the Energy Homeostasis Principle is also readily testable for simple neuronal networks.
