Authors: Kotha Anitha , Aswath Kumar V. , Kagalipura V. Gopinath
Published: January 2020

Background: Peptic ulcer was defined as a disruption of the mucosal integrity of the abdominal esophagus, stomach, duodenum leading to local defect or excavation due to active inflammation. Hospitalizations for peptic ulcer disease (PUD) have decreased since the advent of specific medical therapy & low tachyphylaxis associated with those drugs. This study aims to evaluate the surgical complications of peptic ulcer disease and tested the hypothesis that despite the decrease in hospitalization for PUD, the incidence of elective surgery for PUD during the recent three decades tends to decrease and in contrast, the frequency of emergency surgical interventions for complications of the PUD has remained consistent.Methods: A total of 60 patients operated for complications of PUD, admitted to PES Institute of Medical Sciences, Kuppam, from January 2018 to September 2019. All data that may be potential predictors concerning complications of PUD were prospectively analyzed.Results: In the present study, the most common complication was perforated peptic ulcer (78.3%) followed by Gastric outlet obstruction (15%) and rest bleeding peptic ulcer.Conclusions: Despite the efficacy of modern medical therapy, decreasing the overall PUD hospitalizations, the volume of procedures to treat complications of PUD has not declined.
Elevated serum bilirubin in acute appendicular perforation as a newer serum marker: a diagnostic validation test
Authors: Goudar Bhimanagouda V. , Kanchan Varsha R.
Published: January 2020

Background: Acute appendicitis is the commonest cause of acute surgical abdomen. Appendicectomy is the most frequently performed urgent abdominal operation and is often the first major procedure performed by a surgeon in training. Delay in diagnosis and treatment results in increased rate of perforation, morbidity, mortality and hospital stay.Methods: A prospective study where a total of 100 patients with clinical, radiological and histopathological diagnosis of acute appendicitis or appendicular perforation were studied. The liver function tests were carried out in all the patients.Results: In a study group of 100 patients (74 males and 26 females); 59 cases were acute appendicitis and 41 cases were appendiceal perforation proven histopathological. Out of which 48 cases had elevated serum bilirubin levels i.e., 17 in acute appendicitis group and 31 in appendicular perforation group. The mean serum total bilirubin is 1±0.4 in acute appendicitis cases and 1.9±1.13 in the appendicular perforation cases. Similarly, the sensitivity and specificity of elevated serum bilirubin as a diagnostic marker in appendicular perforation was found to be 75.6% and 71.2% respectively.Conclusions: Elevated serum bilirubin levels appears to be a promising new supplemental diagnostic serum marker in Appendicular Perforation and perhaps be a decision-making investigation.

Authors: Prasad Dinesh , Patel Yash
Published: January 2020

Background: Mesh hernioplasty in patients undergoing emergency inguinal hernia repair is considered practically, irrespective of complications. The main aim of this study was to assess the morbidity of Lichtenstein mesh hernioplasty in treating obstructed inguinal hernias. Primary outcome measures were post-operative wound site infection, seroma formation, length of hospital stay, hanging testis, testicular infarct, inguinodynia and recurrence.Methods: This study was undertaken in the department of General Surgery, SMIMER, Surat, Gujarat, India from August 2016 to July 2019. Fifteen patients were operated and included in the study. All patients underwent standard Lichtenstein mesh hernioplasty for obstracted inguinal hernia repair in emergency operating room.Results: 5 patients (33%) developed wound site infection, 4 patients (27%) developed inguinodynia, 2 patient (13%) developed seroma formation, 1 patient (6%) developed hanging testis. 1 patient (6%) developed testicular infarct. Average postoperative hospital stay was 5.6 days (range =2-18 days).Conclusions: Mesh repairs can be safely performed in emergency inguinal hernia repair with acceptable morbidity.
Study of patient outcome in endoscopic dacrocystorhinosomy using a microdebrider in chronic dacryocystitis patients
Authors: Vishwani Ankit , Taneja H. C. , Das G. K. , Gupta Neelima , Arora Vipin
Published: January 2020

Background: Endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) has become accepted as a suitable treatment for patients with chronic dacryocystitis. In this study authors did endoscopic dacrocystorhinosomy using a microdebrider, which is a recent advancement tool being used successfully in other endoscopic sinus surgeries also. Limited studies are available as of now on this topic.Methods: A total number of 33 patients (with 40 affected eyes) presenting with complains of epiphora having nasolacrimal duct obstruction were selected. They underwent an endoscopic DCR in which dissection of some nasal mucosa and widening of bony ostium was done using a microdebrider. Silicone stent was passed into the nasolacrimal duct through both punctum. Patient outcome was assessed by using both objective (endoscopy and dye test) and subjective (improved symptoms) criteria. Standard follow up time for clinical course was kept 3 months with weekly visits.Results: Patients which got relief from epiphora in 37 eyes (92.5% cases) had no obstruction on endoscopy and positive dye test. Rest (7.5 % cases) had presence of granulation tissue at rhinostoma site and negative dye test, which was cited as the cause of failure.Conclusions: The use of microdebrider is potentially beneficial in endoscopic endonasal dacryocystorhinostomy. By using such an instrument, the minimal amount of tissue damage occurs, a large fistula is formed, and the recurrence due to the formation of adhesions/synechiae/granulations is prevented/reduced thus reducing the time of surgery, complications and failure rate.

Authors: Parekh Janakrai N. , Tandel Chetankumar J. , Patel Kantibhai D. , Gohil Bharat D.
Published: January 2020

Background: Many methods are available for committing suicide. Hanging is one of the methods to committee suicide. The incidence of hanging for committing suicide is increasing. This is a retrospective study carried out at KDN Gohil Hospital, Navsari (Gujarat) to know about the outcome of this type of suicidal attempts and to review the management of such type of patients. Management of this type of injury is not found in many standard textbooks, so this small study will help to compare mortality rate and management protocol with other larger studies.Methods: All patients with history of hanging and accidental strangulation were brought to hospital, after they were released from strangulating agent were included in this study. Various aspects of agents used for hanging, the characteristic findings and management protocol of the patients were studied retrospectively.Results: Results in the form of survival rate and occurrence of complications. Out of 30 patients 24 patients survived and 6 died. Non had cervical spine injury. One patient had laryngeal injury and developed laryngeal stenosis.Conclusions: Suicidal hanging is different from judicial hanging. Most of the time suicidal hanging survival are high; once the patient is brought to the hospital alive in time. Early endotracheal intubations, management of hypotension, ventilator support and anti-oedema drugs are main steps of management.

Authors: Agrawal Sujan Narayan , Kanwar Kamal Singh
Published: January 2020

Background: The objective of the study was to discuss the appropriate course of action in cases of sigmoid volvulus. It becomes important due to its high morbidity and mortality and its acute emergency presentation.Methods: This is a retrospective study of sigmoid volvulus admitted in the department of surgery at Late SBRKM Government Medical College, Jagdalpur. The study period was from January 2017 to August 2019. A total of 27 cases were under study. On admission, they were examined, investigated and treated surgically and the outcome noted.Results: Out of 27 patients 25 were male and 2 cases were female. The mean age group was 65 years. The co-morbidities consisted of previous abdominal surgeries, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and renal complications. The common factor was chronic constipation and purgative abuse. All underwent a definitive surgical procedure like sigmoidectomy and colorectal anastamosis or sigmoidectomy and colostomy. In the second group colostomy closure and end to end anastamosis carried on at a later date. We have lost 5 patients in the post-operative period.Conclusions: The sigmoid volvulus presents with the features of intestinal obstruction. The real danger is the gangrene of the bowel, as a consequence of ischaemia. It requires an early surgical intervention for the maximum benefit of the patient.

Authors: H. D. Hareesh , P. B. Thrishuli , N. M. Girish Kumar
Published: January 2020

Background: Fasciotomy is a standard treatment for acute compartment syndrome. Historically, fasciotomy incisions were usually left open till oedema settles down. In literature, there is a wide range of wound closure techniques published, but none of them is deemed to be the best. In this study, focus is laid on whether delayed primary closure (DPC) by shoelace technique, is as effective as conventional secondary suturing, in closure of fasciotomy wounds, done for spreading cellulitis.Methods: All those patients who met below mentioned inclusion criteria and underwent fasciotomy, were allocated into 2 groups (A and B) where Group A consists of 30 patients undergoing conventional secondary suturing, whereas Group B consists of 30 patients undergoing DPC by shoelace technique for closure of fasciotomy wounds. Parameters such as duration of hospital stay, time taken for complete wound closure, local wound complications, hospital expenses, anaesthesia related complications between the two groups were compared.Results: Patients who underwent DPC for fasciotomy wound closure achieved wound closure ~7 days earlier with 5 days lesser hospital stay than that of those who underwent conventional secondary suturing. Average health care cost of Group B was significantly lower compared to Group A, but there was no statistically significant difference in incidence of wound infections between the two groups.Conclusions: DPC by shoelace technique, takes less time for wound closure and hence the need for nursing care and hospital stay is significantly reduced in comparison to the conventional secondary suturing method.

Authors: Mishra Devansh , Wasnik Nitin , Sakarkar Priyanka
Published: January 2020

Plexiform neurofibroma is a rare benign tumor of the peripheral tissue cells that develops in the perineurium that is often considered pathognomonic of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1 or von Recklinghausen disease). They occur most frequently in the craniomaxillofacial region, rarely on back and extremities. They are extremely vascular and there is 15-20% potential for malignant transformation. A 35-year-old married female presented with painless swelling in left lower back that began at around 8 years of age. The swelling gradually increased in size. The patient reported embarrassment over the disfigurement caused by the mass. Her medical history was unremarkable and none of the relatives was known to be affected. Surgical resection of the swelling with primary closure was done. Histopathology findings were consistent with neurofibromatosis. Hereby reporting a rare case of isolated plexiform neurofibroma of lower back which was surgically cured as a perusal of rare entity. We also try to emphasize on the need of sprightful clinical diagnosis with multidisciplinary approach in the management of these type of tumors. Finally, we insist on the need of a long term clinical and radiological follow-up of these patients to assess  post resection recurrence or malignant transformation.

Published: January 2020

Introdution: Malignant lymphoma is divided into two subgroups of Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's, and 40% of them occur in areas other than the lymph node, the most common being the digestive tract. According to studies, in recent years the prevalence of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas has increased over the past. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the gastrointestinal lymphoma and the survival rate of the patients with this disease based on clinicopathologic characteristics.
Methods: This study was an analytic-cross sectional study. The study population included 97 patients with various types of gastrointestinal lymphoma referring to 3 hospitals in Yazd during 2011-2011. Sampling was done by census. Referring to pathology department of hospitals, all cases related to gastrointestinal tract lymphoma extracted and the information (age, sex, year of diagnosis, type of lymphoma, location of lymphoma, treatment method and survival rate) using the checklist was recorded. The data were analyzed by SPSS18 software and patients' survival was assessed using Kaplan-Meier curves and Log-Rank test.
Results: The results of the study showed that out of 97 patients, 69 patients (71.1%) were male and 28 (28.9%) were female. The mean age of the patients was 49.28±21.5. The most common site of lymphoma was stomach (45.4%), the most common type of treatment, surgical+ chemotherapy (53.6%), and the most common type of lymphoma, B cell lymphoma (50%). The mean survival time was 48 months and there was a significant relationship between mean survival time according to type of treatment.
Conclusion: According to the results, it can be concluded that the appropriate treatment for patients with gastrointestinal lymphomas is surgical+chemotherapy combination therapy.

Published: January 2020

De cara a dar respuesta a la enorme competitividad del entorno actual, es imprescindible contar con individuos implicados e involucrados en la ejecución de un proceso intra-emprendedor para buscar nuevas oportunidades de negocio. Para fomentar este comportamiento intraemprendedor en las organizaciones, es necesario adoptar determinadas herramientas, relacionadas con el diseño organizativo y las prácticas de RRHH en la empresa. La función de RRHH se considera fundamental para alentar un comportamiento innovador, proactivo y orientado a la asunción de riesgos, lo que se supone que desembocará en un incremento de los resultados de innovación y una mayor ventaja competitiva de la empresa. En este sentido, nuestro trabajo tiene como principal objetivo analizar en qué medida la percepción de los empleados del sistema de prácticas de RRHH aplicado en su empresa es coherente y consistente, y si contribuye a impulsar su comportamiento intra-emprendedor. Además, se analiza si esta relación varía en función del género, dado que la literatura tradicional atribuye roles distintos a hombres y mujeres respecto al comportamiento intra-emprendedor. Las hipótesis se contrastaron utilizando modelos de ecuaciones estructurales (SEM) con una muestra de 297 empleados que desempeñan puestos intensivos en el uso de conocimiento, en seis empresas ubicadas en la Comunidad Valenciana. Los resultados muestran la relación positiva entre las percepciones sobre las prácticas de RRHH y el comportamiento intra-emprendedor, pero no muestran diferencias significativas en esta relación según el género.
Análisis de la relevancia de la diversificación financiera y operativa en la rentabilidad de las empresas constructoras en Cataluña (2005-2016)
Authors: Álvarez Cuccia Sabrina
Published: January 2020

El estudio presentado en este artículo analiza, desde una perspectiva descriptiva, la relación entre desempeño económico (rendimientos sobre activo y productividad laboral) y variables relacionadas con opciones estratégicas para obtener recursos financieros, en este caso crédito comercial y uso de redes bancarias. El análisis descriptivo de los patrones de rentabilidad en 5.825 empresas constructoras de Cataluña para el periodo 2005-2016 indica que es posible delinear una relación entre el crédito comercial y la diversificación bancaria y el desempeño empresarial. Los resultados sugieren que el crédito comercial es un importante mecanismo para mantener un nivel de flujo de caja que permita a la empresa poner en marcha sus proyectos y, consecuentemente, generar valor económico, en términos de ROA y productividad laboral. El uso de una red formal de bancos se asocia a mejores resultados económicos; sin embargo, la diversificación bancaria (número de bancos con que formalmente trabaja la empresa) parece generar mayores beneficios económicos a las empresas en periodos de desaceleración económica, mientras que, en periodos de crecimiento, la concentración de relaciones con un banco aparece como una estrategia asociada a mayores niveles de desempeño.

Увиђа се да кроз употребу драмског израза настају нова значења. Анализа се заснива на структуралистичком приступу тексту, као и на његовом сагледавању у контексту теорије модерне драме. Утврђује се да je, упркос површинској сличности између варијанти, реч ипак о два одвојена дела, са различитим тематским тежиштем и идејном подлогом. Прозна варијанта је превасходно дијалог са библијским предлошком, док кроз драмски текст писац оживљава насилно искуство неуклопљености у затвореној заједници. Имплементацијом елемената комичног и трагичног, Пекић потцртава основну идеју о трагичности сваког наметнутог добра.

Legal Conflicts in the Border Dispute between Indonesia and Timor Leste
Authors: Rato Dominikus
Published: January 2020

This study aims to find the pattern of dependable approach in the border dispute settlement between Indonesia and Timor Leste in Oecusse. Historically, the community lived in the border area came from one ancestor. Because of social-political problems, however, the community subsequently followed the trajectory for which the partition between Indonesia and Timor Leste was undeniable. As a result of the partition, in the context, adat land should become the collective right of the community, which is situated under one adat law system but in the different national jurisdictions. This study questions on what causes collective land conflicts at the border of these countries. Using socio-legal and local wisdom approaches, as it is subsequently analyzed according to adat law, the study finds the cause that emerged as the result of the legal conflict between adat law and state law. If the state hands over the problem to adat communities or traditional leaders, based on their adat law dispute resolution, the conflict will resolve quickly. This study recommends the two states, Indonesia and Timor Leste, to provide the dispute resolution to adat or traditional leaders based on their adat law.

Keywords: Legal Conflicts, Border Dispute, Adat Law.
Problem aspects of public control implementation of the work of institutions and authorities that conduct sentences
Authors: Olesya Nikolaevna Kozodaeva
Published: January 2020

We analyze the legislation and practice of public control implementation of the work of institutions and authorities that conduct sentences. We consider the basic principles and directions of the Public Monitoring Commissions (PMC) activities, we list the problem aspects of the administrations interaction of corrections facilities (CF), mass media and public members. In addition, we study the conceptual foundations of the penal system (PS), measures of legal, organizational, informational, social and economic nature aimed at transparency and improving the conditions of serving a sentence. We ascertain that in practice there are cases in which misunderstanding and ignorance of the criminal, criminal procedural and correctional law legis-lation by members of the PMC, their inability to give an objective legal as-sessment of the behavior and actions of a particular subject (remand prisoner, convicted) and officials of administrations of the Federal Penitentiary Service (FPS of Russia) often creates prerequisites for destabilizing the work of institutions of forced detention (FD) and violating the order of serving sentences. In addition, we note that there are other unresolved tasks with the procedure for protecting the rights of convicted prisoners. Thus, we points out that to date, the issues of modernization and optimization of the security system of the CF, strengthening the material base, the formation of modern information and telecommunication infrastructures, ensuring the necessary level of social protection of the PMC employees, introducing modern technologies and technical means into practice of conduct of sentences and many others have remained unresolved.

A poorly diversified trilobite association from the lower Emsian (Lower Devonian) in the Sankt Vith area (East Belgium)
Authors: VAN VIERSEN Allart P. , TAGHON Peter
Published: January 2020

A poorly diversified trilobite association is recorded from an outcrop near the village of Breitfeld, Sankt Vith area, East Belgium. The co-occurrence of Arduennella maillieuxi (Asselberghs, 1923) and Burmeisterella quadrispinosa Wenndorf, 1990 in the Breitfeld locality is suggestive of an early lower Emsian age. The outcropping rocks are provisionally attributed to the lower part of the Our Formation (lower Emsian) as opposed to previous assignment to the “Quartzophyllades de Saint Vith” or Sankt Vith Formation (Pragian). Some nomenclatoral notes are provided on the types of A. maillieuxi as the lectotype could not be traced; a cast of the lectotype as well as several paralectotypes of this species are illustrated. Our material of B. quadrispinosa includes cephalic remains that bring new insights into the morphology of this species. A third species, Treveropyge hellemondi sp. nov., is furthermore described. Palaeobiogeographic affiliations of the trilobite association are discussed. A tentative first step is proposed towards trilobite-based correlations of Emsian strata in the Ardenno-Rhenish Mountains.

A internacionalização dos PPGs é uma das mais recentes. Nesse contexto, o artigo tem o objetivo analisar a importância do desenvolvimento de competências das/os secretárias/os de Programa de Pós-graduação Stricto Sensu voltadas à internacionalização, em específico o domínio da língua estrangeira. Para realizar a análise proposta utilizamos a metodologia de pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, para analisar como a internacionalização é concebida pelo Documento de Área da Educação na versão conhecida de 2016 e na futura edição de 2018. Ao final desta análise concluímos que as Instituições onde trabalhamos devem voltar seus olhares para dentro das secretarias, investindo em formação, para preparar estes que já fazem parte de seus quadros funcionais a atender aos visitantes estrangeiros, suprindo o que é necessário para o domínio da língua estrangeira.

Cálculo em quadrinhos? É possível? É notório que em aulas ministradas exclusivamente nas formas tradicionais e expositivas o discente se disperse e não fique estimulado a aprender. Dessa forma, cresce pesquisas no estudo da mudança do comportamento do aluno em relação ao seu processo de aprendizagem. Considerando esse aspecto, o presente trabalho tem o objetivo de relatar como é possível usar histórias em quadrinhos em uma turma de disciplina obrigatória, Cálculo, do curso de Engenharias da Universidade de Brasília do campus Gama, na tentativa de aproximar o aluno do conteúdo, motivar o aprendizado e tornar o ambiente da sala de aula mais próximo e mais atrativo ao estudante. No final da sequência didática, foi aplicado um questionário para que o estudante pudesse avaliar a experiência. Na avaliação realizada pelos discentes concluiu-se que o universo das tirinhas, no ensino de Cálculo tornou o estudo mais significativo, descontraído e eficaz.

Anak prasekolah membutuhkan zat gizi yang adekuat untuk pertumbuhan yang pesat. Perilaku pilih-pilih makan sering terjadi pada anak prasekolah. Perilaku ini akan mempengaruhi jenis makanan yang dikonsumsi menjadi kurang beragam. Apabila hal ini terjadi terus menerus akan mempengaruhi tingkat kecukupan zat gizi dan status gizi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis hubungan perilaku picky eater dengan tingkat kecukupan protein dan lemak pada anak prasekolah. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian observasional dengan desain desain cross sectional. Populasi penelitian ini adalah seluruh siswa PAUD Anggrek 1 Siwalankerto Surabaya dengan jumlah sampel sebesar 73 siswa. Teknik pengambilan sampel menggunakan simple random sampling yang dilakukan pada bulan Juli 2018. Pengumpulan data dengan wawancara menggunakan kuesioner karakteristik anak, perilaku picky eater, dan data recall 2×24 jam. Data dianalisis menggunakan uji statistik chi square. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan mayoritas anak prasekolah mengalami perilaku picky eater (58,9%). Picky eater tidak menentukan tingkat kecukupan protein (p= 0,400) maupun lemak (p=0,086). Anak prasekolah mengonsumsi susu lebih dari 3 kali sehari dan orang tua memberikan makanan yang kurang variatif kepada anak. Ibu atau pengasuh perlu memberikan makanan yang variatif secara berkala agar anak mengenal dan mudah menerima makanan serta mengurangi konsumsi susu yang berlebihan. PAUD Anggrek 1 perlu melakukan penyuluhan yang bekerja sama dengan puskesmas maupun universitas tentang penanganan perilaku picky eater yang tepat pada anak.

College students have a high suceptibility to experience stress, especially those in last semester who write thesis. If stress not managed correctly, students could experienced negative behaviour like emotional over eating that could infl uence nutritional status. Those problems even occur in nutrition students who already had proper knowledge of health and nutrition practices. This research aims to analyze correlation between emotional over eating behaviour and intake with stress leves and scors of perceived stress scale among nutrition students who write thesis. This research was an observational analytic using cross sectional design. Subjects were 34 nutrition students taken by simple random sampling. Data were collected by perceived stress scale, eating appraisal due to emotion and stress (EADES), questionnaire, and 2 x 24hour food recall. Data were analyzed using Pearson and Spearman Correlation. Results showed correlation between stress level with emotional eating (p=0.008, r=-0.448), scores of perceived stress scale with energy intake (p=0.028, r=0.376), and fat intake (p=0.002, r=0.507). Conclusion of this study is high stress level can be a trigger for emotional eating as a coping strategy that leads to over intake in nutrition students who write thesis. Since food choice could be a problem when having stress, emotional eating can be balanced by perfomed a right food choice as daily intake needs.

The utilization of organic waste is an effort to reduce the amount of household waste. In addition, the use of organic waste as dyestuff can also reduce dependency of synthetic dyes that are toxic. In this study, natural dyes were obtained from the extraction of avocado peel which is act as household waste. Coloration is done on cotton fabric with a variety of adding mordan alum methods to improve the color fastness of the colored fabric. From the experimental results it was found that from the three variations of method, the simultaneous method produced the highest color intensity (K/S) value of 1.7854. While the color difference that shows the best result is the final mordan method with a value of 0.010. The results of testing color fastness for washing and rubbing showed that materials in mordan have better color fastness quality than materials that are not in mordan.

Preparation of an Fe(III) slow-release materials using chitosan and zeolite and evaluation of their release behavior in the 0.33 M citric acid has been done. The composite synthesis was carried out by varying the method of mixing basic ingredients. The first method was done by mixing chitosan gel, zeolite and Fe solution altogether (composite A). The second method was done by mixing chitosan gel with Fe solution and stirring, after that adding zeolite (composite B). The last method was done by interacting zeolite with Fe solution then stirring and then adding chitosan gel (composite C). The structure of the composite was characterized using an infrared spectrophotometer (FTIR), X-Ray diffractometer (XRD), and SEM. Evaluation of release in the citric acid 0.33 M for composite showed that the order of release of Fe(III) from the fastest was chitosan-Fe, composite A, composite B, composite C, zeolite-Fe with values of k are 0.049 mg/g; 0.016 mg/g; 0.015 mg/g; 0.011 mg/g; and 0.006 mg/g, respectively. The SEM images of composite showed rough surface morphology of composites due to the presence of zeolite-Fe which was not coated by the chitosan framework. Thus, it can be concluded that the chitosan-zeolite-Fe composite can be used as a Fe(III) slow-release composite but the variation of mixing method of the materials does no effect on the Fe(III) slow-release properties.
