Published: January 2020

OBJECTIVE

To describe clinical findings and survival times for dogs with functional thyroid tumors treated with surgery alone and investigate potential prognostic factors for outcome in these patients.

ANIMALS

27 client-owned dogs.

PROCEDURES

Medical records of 9 institutions were reviewed to identify dogs with hyperthyroidism secondary to thyroid neoplasia that were treated with surgery alone between 2005 and 2015. Data collected included signalment, hematologic and physical examination findings, tumor staging results, time from diagnosis to treatment, surgical procedure performed, histologic findings, evidence of recurrence or metastatic disease, and date of death or last follow-up. Median survival time and 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival rates were assessed by Kaplan-Meier analysis. Associations between variables of interest and the outcome of death were assessed with Cox proportional hazards models.

RESULTS

Dogs from 8 institutions met inclusion criteria. Median age at diagnosis was 10 years (range, 8 to 13 years). Golden Retrievers and Labrador Retrievers were commonly represented (5 dogs each). Polyuria with polydipsia (15/27 [56%]) and weight loss (12 [44%]) were the most common clinical signs; 2 dogs without clinical signs had hyperthyroidism identified by routine hematologic analysis. One dog had metastatic disease at the time of diagnosis. Most tumors (23/27 [85%]) were malignant. Estimated median survival time was 1,072 days. No significant prognostic factors were identified.

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE

Dogs with resectable functional thyroid tumors had a good prognosis with surgical excision alone. Survival times for these dogs were similar to those in previous studies that included dogs with nonfunctional thyroid tumors.
Fatal intestinal inflammatory lesions in equids in California: 710 cases (1990–2013)
Authors: Macías-Rioseco Melissa , Hill Ashley E. , Uzal Francisco A.
Published: January 2020

OBJECTIVE

To determine incidences and underlying causes of fatal intestinal inflammatory lesions (FIILs) and demographic characteristics of affected equids necropsied at any of the California Animal Health and Food Safety Laboratory facilities between January 1, 1990, and April 16, 2013.

ANIMALS

710 equids with FIILs, including colitis, duodenitis, enteritis, enterocolitis, enteropathy, enterotyphlitis, gastritis, gastroenteritis, ileitis, jejunitis, typhlitis, or typhlocolitis, alone or in combination.

PROCEDURES

The medical records were reviewed, and data collected included animal age, sex, geographic origin, necropsy submission date, and breed, purpose, or characteristic of use. Descriptive statistics were compiled and reported as numbers and percentages.

RESULTS

Colitis (323/710 [45.5%]), enteritis (146/710 [20.6%]), and typhlocolitis (138/710 [19.4%]) were the most common FIILs, and the underlying cause of most FIILs was categorized as either undetermined (465/710 [65.5%]) or bacterial (167/710 [23.5%]). The most common bacteria responsible for FIILs were Clostridium spp and Salmonella spp.

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE

Results indicated that the underlying cause for most FIILs could not be identified; however, when it was identified, it was most commonly bacterial and typically Clostridium spp or Salmonella spp, which could be useful information for practitioners when evaluating and managing horses and other equids with intestinal distress. In addition, results underscored the need for improved diagnostic procedures and strategies to determine underlying causes of FIILs in equids. Knowledge of the most common FIILs and their underlying causes may help in diagnosing and mitigating intestinal disease in equids.

AbstractThe Gulf is an area of water jutting inland and is often used as a port. In the 15th century — 17 M the Gulf of Semangka was passed by a sea-trading route before heading to Teluk Betung. However, this region is rarely mentioned in historical sources even though the ancient settlements have been found in the upstream of the Way Semangka since in the 10th century, so the absence of historical records in the downstream area or the gulf of Semangka becomes an important problem to solve. Through a descriptive reasoning method with geoarchaeological surveys and interviews, there were found 15 ancient settlements in the gulf of Semangka area as well as on a floodplain by leaving ceramic fragments from the 19 — 20 century. Results indicated that the settlement allegedly was built by the initial settlers of the Saibatin clan whose inhabiting the Gulf of Semangka through a short-haul river, and cross the ridge. The gap of settlement chronology between upstream and downstream is indicated due to the environmental vulnerability in this region as a result of its position on the active-control of Semangka fault.  Keywords: Ancient settlement, the gulf of Semangka, Tanggamus.   AbstrakTeluk merupakan wilayah perairan yang menjorok ke daratan dan seringkali dimanfaatkan sebagai pelabuhan. Pada abad ke-15-17 M wilayah Teluk Semangka dilewati sebagai jalur perdagangan sebelum menuju Teluk Betung. Meskipun demikian, wilayah ini jarang sekali disebut dalam sumber sejarah, padahal permukiman kuno telah ada di bagian hulu Way Semangka sejak abad 10 M. Absennya catatan sejarah di wilayah hilir atau teluk Semangka menjadi masalah yanng menarik. Melalui metode penalaran deskriptif dengan teknik pengumpulan data melalui survei geoarkeologi dan wawancara, ditemukan 15 titik permukiman di kawasan Teluk Semangka dan sekaligus berada pada dataran limpahan banjir. Artefak yang ditemukan dominan berupa fragmen keramik abad ke19--20 M. Hasil penelitian mengindikasikan permukiman tersebut sebagai sebaran dari pemukim awal marga saibatin yang mendiami wilayah Teluk  Semangka yang  datang dari hulu di wilayah Liwa melalui sungai Semangka yang curam dengan jarak pendek, melintasi hutan dan punggung bukit. Jauhnya rentang kronologi permukiman antara hulu dan hilir diindikasi karena faktor kerentanan lingkungan akibat bencana karena lokasinya dipengaruhi oleh kontrol aktif sesar Semangka. Kata kunci: Permukiman kuno, Teluk Semangka, Tanggamus

Published: January 2020

The implementation of the Tsanawiyah Islamic Boarding School Curriculum in improving quality at the Al-Kautsar Al-Akbar Islamic Boarding School in Medan aims to find out the structure of the Islamic boarding school curriculum and its implementation in the madrasa. This study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive method, which is to explore data related to the implementation of the pesantren curriculum in the learning process at Madrasah Tsanawiyah and describe the data according to the focus of the study to clarify the purpose of the research. The problem discussed in this paper is how the pesantren curriculum and its implementation in Madrasah Tsanawiyah Al-Kautsar Al-Akbar Medan Islamic School. The results found that structurally the Madrasah Tsanawiyah Al-Kautsar Al-Akbar Medan implemented two curricula, the pesantren education curriculum and the ministry of religion curriculum. The pesantren education curriculum is divided into two curricula. The first is not related to Arabic grammar such as the Qur'an, Hadith, and Morals, this is called the pesantren curriculum. Whereas subjects such as nahwu and sharaf are included in the Arabic curriculum. In implementing the pesantren education curriculum it is not much different from the curriculum of the Ministry of religion. Those who teach the pesantren education curriculum are competent teachers who have special qualifications in the field of religion and all the teachers are pesantren alumni. The method used in learning boarding school education material is to use bandongan and sorogan methods which are carried out classically. The evaluation method used is evaluation with written and practical examinations

Published: January 2020

Se evaluó la presencia de compuestos farmacéuticos de los grupos terapéuticos antiepilépticos, agentes hipolipemiantes, analgésicos antiinflamatorios y tranquilizantes en tres jornadas de muestreo, además se estimó la eficiencia de eliminación mediante un tratamiento primario avanzado (TPA) con procesos de coagulación, floculación y sedimentación en la planta de tratamiento de agua residual de la ciudad de Cali (Colombia). De los compuestos medidos, 10 estuvieron por encima del límite de detección de la técnica analítica usada: carbamazepina, 10,11-Dihidro-10,11-dihidroxicarbamazepina, gabapentina, ácido fenofíbrico, gemfibrozilo, diclofenaco, ibuprofeno, ketoprofeno, naproxeno y paracetamol, en concentraciones que oscilaron entre 0.15 y 10 µgL-1 en el afluente. Después del tratamiento, la mayoría de compuestos tuvieron eficiencias de eliminación inferiores al 30%, siendo el paracetamol y naproxeno los que obtuvieron los mejores porcentajes de 98.1 y 57.1%, respectivamente. Estas eficiencias de eliminación se relacionaron no solo al proceso de coagulación floculación, el cual es favorable para compuestos lipofílicos, sino también a la biodegradación por la acción de las bacterias presentes en la matriz de agua residual.

Феномен Колумбова обмена (Columbian exchange), начавшийся около 500 лет назад, далеко не закончен, что подтверждается происходящими в Евразии эпифитотиями, вызываемыми вредными организмами американского происхождения. Цель исследования проанализировать закономерности межконтинентальных инвазий вредоносных организмов, включая южноамериканскую томатную моль. В исследованиях использовали стандартные методы мониторинга насекомых фитофагов, метод аппроксимации по опытным данным онтогенеза стадий моли в зависимости от температуры в вегетационноклиматических шкафах. Представлена информация о распространении южноамериканской томатной моли в Старом Свете, обсуждены теоретические аспекты развития межконтинентальных инвазий, выделены фазы эволюции отношений хозяинпаразит (фоновая, латентная, интенсивная, феномен межконтинентальной стрессбиоинвазии). Приведены примеры межконтинентальных биоинвазий вредных организмов, детерминировавших социально значимые эпифитотические последствия (вспышки массового размножения/развития). Представлены термодетерминантные аспекты онтогенеза томатной минирующей моли. На основе экспериментальных данных построена математическая модель онтогенеза Tuta absoluta в зависимости от температуры. Применение модели для оценочных прогнозов термоадаптации вредителя с использованием данных метеостанций показало возможность развития томатной моли в Московской области минимально в двух генерациях. Приведен пример картограммы прогноза числа генераций Tuta absoluta для Московской области. По результатам оценочного моделирования (с использованием данных районных метеостанций за 2017 год) в зоне наибольшего риска акклиматизации вредного организма были Коломенский и Каширский административные районы. Дана информация о нижних термолимитах акклиматизации объектов карантинных биоинвазий для РФ. Механизм трансатлантических биоинвазий определен нами как пингпонгэффект . Это феномен инверсионной неоднократности межконтинентальных биоинвазий в рамках Колумбового обмена описывает биоинвазию Tuta absoluta, прямая аналогия которой трансатлантическая эпифитотия глободероза картофеля. Схема выглядит следующим образом: перенос растенияхозяина из Нового света в Старый, его селективное улучшение, затем обратный перенос улучшенных форм в Новый свет, где они поражаются коэволюционно связанным вредным организмом и перенос уже вредного организма в Старый свет с последующей эпифитотией.

Room Temperature Flow Electrochemistry as a Means of Retaining the “Memory of Chirality” via Hofer Moest Type Reaction
Authors: Hardwick Tomas , Cicala Rossana , Ahmed Nisar
Published: January 2020

Many chiral compounds have become of great interest to the pharmaceutical industry as they possess various biological activities. Concurrently, the concept of “memory of chirality” has been proven as a powerful tool in asymmetric synthesis, while flow chemistry has begun its rise as a new enabling technology to add to the ever increasing arsenal of techniques available to the modern day chemist. Here, we have employed a new simple electrochemical microreactor design to oxidise an L-proline derivative at room temperature in continuous flow. Flow performed in microreactors offers up a number of benefits allowing reactions to be performed in a more convenient and safer manner, and even allow electrochemical reactions to take place without a supporting electrolyte due to a very short interelectrode distance. By the comparison of electrochemical oxidations in batch and flow we have found that continuous flow is able to outperform its batch counterpart, producing a good yield (71%) and a better enantiomeric excess (64%) than batch with a 98% conversion. We have, therefore, provided evidence that continuous flow chemistry has the potential to act as a new enabling technology to replace some aspects of conventional batch processes.
A Study on Spirituality in Alice Walker’s The Color Purple

Representation of spirituality belief in Alice Walker’s The Color Purple, is distinguishable. Celie has spiritual belief on God too much. She believes that God will rescue her father and husband from the struggle. The Color Purple is an epistolary novel, which means expressing through letter. She initially imagines God as an old white man, something like Dumbledore or Gandalf. But as a black woman who’s been abused by men all her life, Celie eventually begins to rebel against this image of God. She  begins to see God as genderless and raceless, a more universal being who wants humans to enjoy all aspects of life—from nature to sex to the color purple.

Published: January 2020

The Indo-Anglican literature is different from the Anglo-Indian literature. The former is the genre written and created by the Indians through the English language; the latter is written by the Englishmen on themes and subjects related to India. The Indo-Anglican fiction owes its origin to the translations of various fictional works from the Indian languages into English, notably from Bengali into English. The Indo-Anglican writers of fiction write with an eye and hope on the western readers. This influenced their choice of the subject matter. In Indo-Anglican novels there are Sadhus, Fakirs, Caves, Temples, Vedanta, Gandhi, Rajahs and Nawabs, etc. to are to show the interest of western audience. They represent essentially the western idea of India. But at the same time there are elements of Indianness, Nationalism and Patriotism, glorification of India’s past and sympathy for the teeming millions of the country.

Published: January 2020

The kinetics of induced electron transfer reaction has been attempted presently with Tetra Methyl Ammonium Chloro Chromate (TMACC) and pentaammine cobalt (III) complexes of α-hydroxy acid in the presence of micelles. The Tetra Methyl Ammonium Chloro Chromate (TMACC) oxidizes cobalt (III) bound and unbound α-hydroxy acids. In Tetra Methyl Ammonium Chloro Chromate (TMACC) induced electron transfer in the complex, the intermediate radical formed dissociates in a nearly synchronous C-C bond cleavage and the rest of it proceeding with C-H fission yielding cobalt (III) complex. With increase in surfactant Sodium Lauryl Ethersulphate (SLES) concentration, an increase in the rate was observed.

Published: January 2020

After studying mathematics at Cambridge, Maclaurin turned to the study of law, partly asa result of his friendship with the South African Jan Smuts. As part of his LLM studies hewrote a thesis which was awarded the Yorke essay prize in 1898. The essay was published in1901, making it the first legal book published by a Victoria academic, albeit a Professor of mathematics. Later Maclaurin's position as a Law Professor was formalised but like Salmond he departed, firstly for Columbia and then MIT. Legal Education's loss became Science Education's gain.

According to the author, legal writing requires absolute integrity to the facts, full candour as to the facts, avoiding distortion and straw-men targets in arguments, consistency, and clarity and accuracy.
F O V Acheson and Maori Customary Law
Authors: Boast Richard P
Published: January 2020

This article briefly discusses the life and views of Frank Acheson, Judge of the Wanganui and Tai Tokerau Divisions of the Native Land Court. Professor Boast discusses Judge Acheson's Jacob Joseph Scholarship essay, which encompasses Judge Acheson's views on Maori customs. Judge Acheson is described as an activist judge and something of a tragic figure who has been largely forgotten by New Zealand history. However, Professor Boast concludes that Judge Acheson's work shows that the development of New Zealand jurisprudence is not necessarily as simplistic and narrowly positivist as is sometimes assumed.

Dr Barton spent a month and a half visiting the 8 nation states between May and October of 1979. The terms of reference focussed on obtaining a factually based profile of the legal-constitutional needs of each state and are reflected in the various sections of the report. In particular, the terms of referencedirected Dr Barton to "examine ways in which the special legal requirements of these jurisdictions may most effectively and efficiently be met bearing in mind the limited resources available and seeking to make maximum use of assistance which it might be possible to arrange from other institutions ifor example, from university law faculties) and in close collaboration with existing regional institutions in the Pacific". In response to this Dr Barton suggests, among other things, aregional legal unit to serve the area, a suggestion which still has relevance today. Although Dr Barton's ideas for a regional advice unit were never implemented it is significant that a Pacific Law Unit for training purposes was established in Vanuatu with Commonwealth Secretariat and New Zealand Government support and latterly a regional law school has been established in Vanuatu by the University of South Pacific. In particular his comment that "in newly independent territories the need for legislative texts that are both up-to-date and readily available is particularly urgent" found a response in Victoria University Law Faculty based legislation master lists (Samoa, Solomon Islands) and in consolidated collections for Cook Islands, Niue, Norfolk Island and Tokelau.

However, the author also stresses that the fundamental plank of the constitution is the sovereignty of the people, and that Parliament's democratic imperative is representative government.

The study of this article was set out to identify the use of the language of propaganda in Bush’s political speech. It was purposed to clarify the propaganda techniques applied by Bush in order to have one point of view among the audiences. The study focused on how the techniques of propaganda occurred within Bush Jr.’s speech in which he attempted to explain the different sides of who is combating terrorism and who is performing terror. The material of analysis was the speech delivered by Bush Jr. in front of the Military Officers Association of America Meeting in 2006.

It was argued that propaganda can also effectively work toward almost all types of audiences, whereas the strategy of propaganda was mostly creating a fallacious reasoning connection concerning the topics being discussed.
