Background: Breast pain becomes more complicated in many humans. Various hospitals are planning for surgery in the initial stages. The main aim of this paper to find the various factors which cause mastalgia, this is mainly causing the abnormal conditions of the breast. Method : The experiments conducted on 400 patients and this is collected from various surveys, for patients older than the age of 40 the mammography and ultrasonography (US). Results : The mean age was 44.23 ± 9.23 years. This group consists of 300 cases, the asymptomatic group consists of 100 persons. Due to the various reasons that are related to mastalgia (p < 0.05). These are based on their breastfeeding to the child. If it is more than 4 times or more were higher in the mastalgia group (p < 0.04). The breast imaging-reporting and data system (BI-RADS 2) mammography results were associated with mastalgia (p < 0.05). These two are more common in the mastalgia group (p < 0.05) that is Fibro cysts and fibro adenomas. Based on the previous history the malignant breast disease was simultaneously higher in the mastalgia group (p < 0.05). Conclusions : Life stress, high caffeine consumption, smoking, lactation frequency, and benign disorders were factors identified to be related with mastalgia. Though a significant relation between mastalgia and malignant breast disease was detected in our study, more studies are still necessary to investigate this relationship.

Authors: Anwar A. Abdulla
Published: January 2021

A case- control study on the relationship of 5-HTTLPR gene polymorphism with alcohol abuse among Iraqi individuals was conducted during period from December 2018 to June 2019. DNA was extracted from the blood samples of the study subjects. The genetic polymorphism analysis was conducted by Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP-PCR) for SLC6A4 gene. The results raveled that the odd ratio for the LL genotype was 1.697 indicating that homo mutant genotype were at higher risk for alcoholism than the wild type SS. This result showed that L allele frequency was (0.78) in alcoholism group and (0.53) in control group whereas S allele frequency was (0.22) in the alcoholism group and (0.47) in the control group. So, the results showed there was a significant difference in allele frequencies of SLC6A4gene between case and control (P<0.01; OR=1.697; 95% CI=0.86-1.64). There was a significant positive correlation between the SGOT activity and the genotype of 5-HTTLPR (SS, SL, LL).Additionally, there was a significantly increased level of liver enzymes (GOT and GPT) and catalase in serum samples of alcoholic males compared with non-alcoholic males.

Objective: Women are half of the Iraqi community and their health should be priority to the country. Breast cancer Occurs is increasingly rising in Iraq due to so many problems that the country has suffered. Several privious studies have studied breast cancer; however, none of them has explore the presence of HBV and the basic molecular mechanism are generally obscure and research studies are not enough and disintegrated. Method: Therefore, this study are focusing on discovering a novel technique to detect breast cancer as early as possible to kept women lives. Advancement in routine breast cancer risk assessment will prevent chemotherapy uptake in women. subsequently , the women with or without breast tumor have expose to plasma assay to reveal HBV, Estrogen, Progesterone, complete blood count .The women test are divided into many classes of such as age , smoke and non-smoke to test their ability to detoxify carcinogenic aromatic amines in cigarette smoke. Result: 64% of the malignant women were smoker while 36% were none smoker. 45±12 years is the most vulnerable age to get cancer. HBsAg were demonstrated in 10% of the all malignant ladies, while antiHBs Ag have detected in only 5 % of the total number. ,complete blood counts and hormonal levels were dysregulated in the breast cancer patients. Conclusion: The hormones are negatively correlated with the presence of cancer, HBV have detected in several samples but the no significant correlation. Smoking is the most factor significantly associated with breast tumor . For all these reasons .Iraqi government strongly argue to make smoking cigarettes prohibited in public areas.

One of the Human Rights elements that must be achieved in accordance with the ideals of the Indonesian people is the Health aspect, the profession as a doctor devotes his/her knowledge to the public interests, has freedom and independence which is oriented to human values in accordance with the code of ethics. In implementing the code of medical ethics, it as much as possible avoids the occurrence of medical error. The error can occur in the diagnostic stage such as error or delay in diagnosis, not implementing the appropriate examination, using an examination method that is no longer used or does not act on the examination or observation result, etc. The risk that occur if it is not carried out thoroughly and carefully, is that it will result in a fatal error. The method used in this research is the normative juridism method, namely the addition method by holding on to the applied norms or legal rules. The result in this research is the liability’s manifestation of the doctor who performs medical malpractice as a form of criminal legal protection in Indonesia, it is basically based on intentional or unintentional mistakes or negligence. If it results in the victim’s death, it is equal to murder, and if the victim does not die it is called an act of persecution with the sanction of persecution.
Application of the Constitution of Ukraine in the implementation of justice: basic principles
Authors: Ezerov Albert
Published: February 2021

The article focuses attention on the fact that the phenomenon of the Constitution is not limited to the constitutional text, since the Constitution, first of all, is a system of basic values designed to limit any manifestations of arbitrariness of public authority to ensure human rights.
At the same time, it is noted that the «tangible» for the constitutional system exactly is the embodiment of the material Constitution as a text and a system of legal requirements in lawmaking and law enforcement, which directly depends on the subjects of law «users» of the Constitution.
It is noted that the application by the courts of the Constitution as an act of direct action allows filling in the gaps and eliminating other defects in the legislation, is one of the dimensions the embodiment of the supremacy of the Constitution of Ukraine in the law application. It has also been established that the provisions of Article 8 of the Constitution, according to which its norms are direct action norms, and an appeal to the court to protect the constitutional rights and freedoms of a person and a citizen directly on the basis of the Constitution of Ukraine are guaranteed in a systematic connection with Article 150 of the Constitution according to that powers the Constitutional Court of Ukraine refers to the resolution of issues of compliance with the Constitution of Ukraine (constitutionality) of laws and other legal acts, cannot restrict courts in competence of direct application of the Constitution and solution to the issue of compliance with any other regulatory acts, that should be applied in a specific case.
It has been proved that one of the mechanisms for ensuring the direct operation of the norms of the Constitution is the review of court decisions in view of exceptional circumstances, which is one of the manifestations of the «responsibility» of the state and responsible public administration, since in this way the state fulfills its the duty to restore of human rights as a consequence violation due adopting an act that has the subject of judicial constitutional review and recognized as unconstitutional.
It is summarized that the Constitution will be real only with the active position of the courts on the application of its provisions in resolving disputes, and the courts will occupy a prominent place in the system of separation of powers, only if the Constitution will be basis of judicial decisions.

The Consonant System of Nigerian English Shaped in the Context of Language Contact
Authors: Петренко А. Д. , Петренко Д. А. , Вовк Н. А.
Published: February 2021

Статья представлена в русле социолингвистических исследований. Актуальность научной темы связана с выявлением роли английского языка в нигерийском социуме. Основная цель работы — установить корреляцию фонетических характеристик родного языка (йоруба) и британского английского, что позволит определить специфику произношения и формирования системы консонантизма нигерийского варианта английского языка. Статус ряда элементов системы согласных языка йоруба вызывает споры среди исследователей. Источники указывают на варьирование количества согласных фонем. Если сравнивать нигерийский вариант английского языка с системой консонантизма британского английского, можно отметить, что первый содержит 22 согласные фонемы, аналогичные фонемам британского английского, за исключением двух. Сопоставляя системы консонантизма языка
йоруба и британского английского, констатируем, что в обоих языках присутствует ряд похожих фонем, при этом имеются такие фонемы, которые характерны лишь для одного из языков. Можно предположить, что носители языка йоруба как родного испытывают сложности в освоении нехарактерных для этого языка фонем британского английского в ходе его усвоения и использования в процессе общения. Следует также подчеркнуть, что при анализе речи информантов из Федеративной Республики Нигерия, записанной на аудионосители, обнаружены явления фонетической интерференции в ходе реализации согласных фонологических переменных английского языка.

The article is presented in the wake of sociolinguistic research. The topicality of the issue is connected with defining the role of the English language (further — EL) in the Nigerian society. The main purpose of the work is to reveal the correlation of the phonetic characteristics of the mother tongue (Yoruba) and British English (further — BrE), what will allow to define the specifics of pronunciation and formation of the consonant system of Nigerian English (further — NigE). The observations brought us to the following conclusions. The consonant system of the Yoruba language (further — YL) provokes dispute among the researchers. According to the sources, the number of the consonant vowels in YL varies from seventeen to nineteen. If we compare NigE with the consonant system of BrE, then it is possible to say that the former contains twenty two consonant phonemes which coincide with the phonemes of British English except two cases. Collating the consonant systems of the YL and BrE, it can be noted that both languages have similar phonemes. There are also such phonemes which are typical of only one language from the pair. It is possible to suppose that the YL native speakers have difficulties studying BrE phonemes which are not typical of the YL during learning and using the EL in communication. Also it should be said that the analysis of the speech of informants from the Federative Republic of Nigeria recorded on the audio media showed the presence of the phonetic interference in the production of the EL consonant phonological variables.
Перевод отраслевых терминов: исследование терминологии судостроения и судоремонта (на английском языке)
Authors: Gosteva Z.
Published: February 2021

Building on existing studies the paper outlines some linguistic properties of terminology — features that differentiate terms from other lexical (non-terminological) units and uses them to examine highly specialized shipbuilding terms in the English and Russian languages. The author focuses on the lexical, grammatical, namely, morphosyntactic, dissimilarities between the terms in the two languages: different number of terminoelements in compound terms, mismatches in the lexical meaning of the principal elements, terminoelements belonging to different parts of speech and having different grammatical forms. The investigation into techniques used to translate shipbuilding terms indicates that the most common methods are equivalent translation — whereincounterparts constitute ideal terms as they are monosemantic, context-independent, fully coinciding in meaning — using hyponyms or superordinates and translation by means of transcription and transliteration.

Опираясь на существующие исследования, автор отмечает важнейшие языковые свойства терминов, особенности, которые отличают термины от других лексических (нетерминологических) единиц. Эти признаки используются для изучения узкоспециальных судостроительных терминов в английском и русском языках. Автор фокусируется на лексических, грамматических, а именно морфосинтаксических различиях между терминами в двух языках: различное количество компонентов в терминах-словосоче-таниях, несоответствия в лексическом значении основных компонентов словосочетаний, разная частеречная принадлежность терминоэлементов и различия в грамматических формах компонентов. Исследование приемов, используемых для перевода терминов судостроения, показывает, что наиболее распространенными методами являются перевод при помощи эквивалента, при котором межъязыковые соответствия представляют собой идеальные термины, поскольку они однозначны, не зависят от контекста и семантически идентичны, а также использование гипонимов, гиперонимов и перевод с помощью транскрипции
и транслитерации.
Guy de Maupassant’s Impressionistic Vision Illustrated by His Story “Le Retour” (“The Return”)
Authors: Кузнецова Т.Я.
Published: February 2021

В основе статьи лежат отличительные принципы импрессионизма. Акцентируется субъективное видение. Важно не само явление, а его становление. Событие дается в смене впечатлений, определены критерии и их реализации, каждый раз новые, создающие динамизм повествования. Все, что необычно, порождает яркую образность и привлекает внимание. Использование нормандского диалекта позволило автору мастерски противопоставить безыскусность выражения в диалоге остроте и напряженности ситуации. Диалог представлен как основная цветовая гамма, а усложняющие его варианты показаны как результат направленного света.

The story relies on the principles of Impressionism listed below. The author of the story emphasizes subjective vision. It is not the phenomenon itself that matters but the way it is shown. The events are marked by a sequence of impressions. Maupassant follows the criteria he set, and their multiple implementations, ever new, make the narrative dynamic. Everything unusual gives rise to vivid imagery and draws the readers’ attention. Use of the Norman dialect gave the author a unique opportunity to oppose the unsophisticated, even awkward, language of the characters’ dialogue and the poignancy and tension of the human drama. Dialogue serves as the general palette, whereas the emotional overtones accompanying it are shown as the result of a ‘spotlight’.

Published: January 2021

The demand to develop an efficient heat exchanger have been prompted in order to save the energy and materials as well as economic incentives within the industry. To establish a reliable heat exchanger that be able to operate under its normal operating conditions, a model should reflect the true behaviour of the process itself. Modelling of heat exchanger helps to understand process that occurs during the operation. Hence, the primary objective of the project is developing a structural model using an ARX (Auto-Regressive with eXogenous input) equation. The data from experiment was used to determine the parameter of ARX equation. Using HGAPSO (Hybrid Genetic Algorithm and Partical Swarm Optimization) algorithm, ARX parameters are optimized to obtain the transfer function that represents the plant for modelling. Validation test of autocorrelation and cross-correlation were used to validate between normalised data input and error. Based on the result on the six order model, parameter a0, a1, a2, a3, a4, and a5 values are -0.00083, -0.00202, -0.00253, -0.00095, -0.00213 and -0.00275 while parameter b0, b1, b2, b3, b4 and b5 values are -0.7642, -0.5759, 0.3118, 0.0715, 0.1140 and 0.0683 respectively. From validation test, all graphs are within the 95 percent of confident line.

Published: January 2021

Recently the numerical modeling using finite element method is take into account as a very effective tool to investigate the desired behavior of structures in geotechnical engineering. Earth dams are a water retention structures that are normally wide constructed around the world due to its significant features. These structures may be failed due to exposure to an earthquake and this will result in disaster. The main objective of this study is to assess the slope stability and the seismic response of an earthen dam. Since the matter of seismic response is still have a considerable lack of information for earth dams as a unique structure. Hemren zoned earth dam that is located in Diyala governorate, northeast of Iraq that considered as an active seismic zone has been considered as case study. Numerical modeling has been done in this study using Geo studio software. Factor of safety was calculated with different water levels in order to evaluate the dam safety with different operation water level. The excited earthquake is Elcentro while three values of peak ground acceleration were used which are 0.2, 0.25 and 0.3 g and the duration time is scaled to 10 seconds. In addition, three key points (at the core, the shell and the foundation) that represent the dam construction material are used to evaluate the dynamic response within the dam body. The results revealed that the factor of safety is increased when the water level is increase, but in the increasing in the magnitude of factor of safety with water depths of (10 and 15) m was more than the other depth. The zone of the dam core shows a negative pore water pressure value. That leads to an increasing in effective stress at the core of the dam.

Energy demand from the community, which continues to increase has resulted in depletion of petroleum (fossil) energy in recent years. Many researchers have sought to find alternative fuels to replace dependence on conventional energy. The mixing of alcohol into diesel fuel has also been carried out by several previous researchers. The main focus of this research is to investigate the combustion performance of diesel engines using a mixture of biodiesel-butanol-water and diesel (B5Bu5W5). This research experiment used a single-cylinder diesel engine with different speeds at 25% and 50% engine load. The experimental results show that the maximum cylinder pressure reaches 72.32 bar when the engine load reaches 50%. While at 25% engine load press the maximum cylinder 33.62 bar. The heat dissipation for 50% engine load is also higher than the engine load 25% respectively 34.39% and 33.62%. Overall results show that cylinder pressure increases when the load and engine speed increase. However, the combustion time is a little slower than when using pure diesel fuel.

Existing design of Heat-Pipe Evacuated Tube Collector (HP ETC) for solar water heating require storage tank and additional heat exchanger required for air heating application which leads to the extra spacing and costing requirement. HP ETC have better thermal performance to produce high outlet temperature than flat plate collector (FPC), especially during diffuse solar radiation. But HP ETC normally focusing on water heating system. Furthermore, HP ETC and FPC installation need to be positioned either to south or north facing to ensure the solar thermal collector absorbs more solar radiation. Meanwhile, HP ETC need to be tilt at the correct angle to maximize the performance of the system. These could lead to design limitation. The aim of this research is to develop the new design of Evacuated Glass-Thermal Absorber Tube Collector namely EGATC for drying application. It was developed from conventional HP ETC evacuated glass tube. In this study comparison result of EGATC and HP ETC performance were evaluated. The three days outdoor experiment proves that the performance of EGATC was better than HP ETC in air heating application which is provide higher outlet temperature. Based on the result, EGATC (Day 1: 50.9 oC, Day 2: 53.9 oC, Day 3: 49.2 oC) performed better with slightly higher temperature at outlet temperature compare with HP ETC (Day 1: 46.7 oC, Day 2: 50.3 oC, Day 3: 46.9 oC). It is concluded that EGATC have better performance in term of temperature different and outlet temperature as compared to HP ETC. EGATC (Day 1: 53.6%, Day 2: 50.6%, Day 3: 49.8%) also have greater efficiency in term of heat storage capability as compared to HP ETC (Day 1: 42.7%, Day 2: 41.6%, Day 3: 41.1%). Regarding energy buffer storage, EGATC have better energy storage compared to HP ETC at sudden weather change such as diffuse solar radiation during clouds. The outlet temperature of EGATC (42.3 oC) was remained slightly higher compared to HP ETC (39.9 oC) at the beginning. The outlet temperature gradually drops slower during discharging period until the end of the experiment for 15 minutes towards outlet temperature 41.1ºC and 37.2ºC for both EGATC and HP ETC with temperature difference 1.2ºC and 2.7ºC respectively.

À travers des exemples extraits d’observations de classe, nous proposons une réflexion sur le rôle du silence d’une enseignante qui utilise l’approche Silent Way pour enseigner le français langue seconde. Cet article soutient l’idée que le silence est nécessaire et bénéfique pour l’apprentissage d’une langue vivante. Il s’agit de montrer en quoi le silence est à la fois un outil didactique, une compétence et une posture qui font partie intégrante du rôle de cette enseignante. Nous synthétisons notre réflexion en proposant une typologie des fonctions du silence qui met en évidence le lien qu’entretient le silence avec différentes modalités kinésiques et verbales.

Published: February 2021

Le texte analyse, à travers une étude de cas qui fut l’objet d’une intervention institutionnelle de la part de l’auteur et de l’équipe de l’Observatoire du Bouc Émissaire, les silences au sein du mécanisme du bouc émissaire à l’aune du couple structurant des institutions : institué-instituant. Il analyse en quoi le silence est doublement actif, participant à la fois de la dynamique oppositionnelle instituant-institué mais aussi du tiers qui consiste en l’institutionnalisation de l’instituant. Il s’appuie sur un silence institué et un silence instituant qui, dans tous les cas, participent de la construction du mécanisme du bouc émissaire. Il convoque les silences pour mesurer en quoi ils constituent des éléments d’accélération et de ralentissement des étapes du processus. De même, il y fait appel pour comprendre la construction des figures au sein du mécanisme du bouc émissaire, qu’elles soient accusées, accusatrices ou neutres.
Benefits and Limitations of Implementing Mental Health Apps Among the Working Population

Mental health conditions can have a large impact on both individual employees and organizations. Employers may be able to leverage wide spread mobile technology platforms to deliver mental health benefits to their employees. Indeed, there is a large inventory of mental health applications (apps) that have already been developed and disseminated to the public. Although mental health apps can be relatively inexpensive and easily accessible by many employees, many companies will want to consider organizational outcomes such as worker presenteeism and absenteeism when making decisions regarding the implementation of such a program. Current scientific evidence surrounding mental health apps within working populations is limited relative to the number of available programs. Practitioners should proceed with caution in recommending mental health apps for widespread use in the workplace.

Semidefinite relaxation method for polynomial optimization with second-order cone complementarity constraints
Authors: Zhu Lin , Zhang Xinzhen
Published: February 2021

Polynomial optimization problem with second-order cone complementarity constraints (SOCPOPCC) is a special case of mathematical program with second-order cone complementarity constraints (SOCMPCC). In this paper, we consider how to apply Lasserre's type of semidefinite relaxation method to solve SOCPOPCC. To this end, we first reformulate SOCPOPCC equivalently as a polynomial optimization and then solve the reformulated polynomial optimization with semidefinite relaxation method. For a special case of SOCPOPCC, we present another reformulation of polynomial optimization, which is of lower degree. SDP relaxation method is applied to solve the new polynomial optimization. Numerical examples are reported to show the efficiency of our proposed method.

The aim of this study was determination of physical-chemical and radiological characteristics of kaolin and products of alkali-activated thermally treated kaolin (geopolymer). Also, the objective of presented research was to investigate the possibility of kaolin application as a pigment or as a raw material for obtaining geopolymer materials as a relatively new ones in a building material industry. Physicochemical characterization of one set of samples was conducted using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infra - red (FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Activity concentration of naturally occurring radionuclides in kaolin, metakaolin and geopolymer were determined. The absorbed dose rate (D) and the annual effective dose rate (EDR), calculated in accordance with the UNSCEAR 2000 report, are also presented in this paper. Kaolin was heat-treated on 750oC and specific activity of natural radionuclide in metakaolin increased up to 1.6, while measured specific activities in geopolymer were the lowest.
Le jugement pénal, reflet des inégalités territoriales
Authors: Léonard Thomas
Published: February 2021

Les décisions judiciaires sont-elles indépendantes du fait que les prévenus soient « européens » ou « maghrébins » ? Nos données, portant sur des jugements rendus devant le tribunal correctionnel de Lille en 2000 et 2009, indiquent que les prévenus « maghrébins » représentent en tout cas 35 % de l’échantillon et 50 % de ceux qui sont condamnés à une peine de prison ferme. L’analyse statistique révèle toutefois que la plus grande sévérité des peines prononcées à l’égard des « Maghrébins » ne s’explique pas par une discrimination au stade du jugement mais qu’elle trouve son origine, dans le fait qu’ils cumulent davantage que les « Européens » des caractéristiques (antécédents judiciaires, chômage, extranéité) qui favorisent les peines de prison ferme. On constate par ailleurs une augmentation significative des poursuites de prévenus « maghrébins » entre nos deux années d’études. L’analyse révèle que celle-ci trouve son origine dans une concentration des poursuites, vraisemblablement alimentée par l’action policière, sur les territoires où résident d’importantes proportions de « Maghrébins ». Il en découle des tensions entre une partie des résidents « maghrébins » de ces territoires et les policiers, ce qui contribue vraisemblablement à la surreprésentation des premiers nommés dans les infractions à personne dépositaire de l’autorité publique (IPDAP).
Paleontologia e ensino básico: análise dos Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais e dos livros didáticos em Juiz de Fora, MG, Brasil

Paleontology and basic education: analysis of Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais and textbooks in Juiz de Fora, MG, Brazil. Paleontology has a crucial role in teaching Science and Biology for helping to understand different natural processes, although there is limited space in its school approach. It is necessary to understand how its content has been worked by the teachers, both quantitatively and qualitatively. In order to understand how their themes are addressed by basic education textbooks, in private and public schools in Juiz de Fora, after analyzing the Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais (National Curriculum Parameters, translated by the authors) - PCNs and their guidelines, from the sixth to the ninth year of elementary school and of the entire high school, a table of presence or absence was set up, with the main themes in Paleontology indicated, analyzing which were present in each book. For qualitative analysis, 11 questions were listed. The analysis included 22 themes in 18 elementary school and 15 high school books. High school books had the largest number of topics covered, with 123 presences, and elementary school, 69. The most present themes were: “Origin of Life”, “Theory of Evolution” and “Fossil Concept”; the least addressed: “Types of Fossils”, “Fossils as Non-Renewable Natural Resources” and “Great Extinctions”. Most books deal with subjects with no connection with other areas, without contextualization, with rare interdisciplinarity and relationship with environmental issues, necessary to confront science denialism and the recent risks of educational retrogression. The results reveal the importance of broadening the discussion on how to address Paleontology in basic education, assessing school incentives, teachers’ motivation, the perception of the importance of teaching this science, and the use of other tools besides the textbook. Keywords: science teaching, Base Nacional Comum Curricular, school, environmental education, fossils.
Active cancer and cardiac surgery: Possible scenarios in patient decision-making

Published: February 2021

Heart disease and cancer are often found simultaneously in the same patient, and may require cardiac and non-cardiac surgery. Cancer may be part of the past medical history; in other cases the presence of an active malignancy makes the clinical management more complex. No general evidence-based recommendations are available to help in the decision-making process. Because of the lack of specific guidelines we provided a series of possible scenarios describing not unusual cases. We focused on cases where the concomitant presence of heart disease and active malignancies involved a multidisciplinary team. Four real patients with active cancer referred to our Center were assessed. Three of them had valve disease requiring cardiac surgery. Defining the timing of surgery and choosing the surgical approach required a careful and comprehensive evaluation. In the last case, the complicated balance between the thrombotic and the hemorrhagic risk involved difficult decision. Several critical points, which characterized the management of this kind of patients, were identified. In particular, the hemodynamic status, the type and stage of the tumor, the need for cancer therapy, as well as the comorbidities of the patient, had to be taken into account. This narrative review shows the importance of submitting every challenging case to the assessment of a multidisciplinary team, which involves different clinical figures, in order to guarantee the most comprehensive evaluation. When clinical management deviates from the general recommendations, an individualized approach should be used.

Authors: Gupta Priyanka , Anne Rajendra Prasad , Deshabhotla Sai Kiran , Nerakh Gayatri
Published: February 2021

We report a newborn born to a consanguineous couple with antenatally detected dilatation of third ventricle, unilateral talipes, and intra uterine growth retardation. On examination, there was facial dysmorphism, hypotonia, encephalopathy, joint laxity and muscle hypertrophy in addition to left foot talipes. On evaluation, there were renal cortical cysts, rhizomelia, chondrodysplasia punctata and elevated muscle enzymes, along with a dilated third ventricle. As the phenotype was not consistent with any of the muscular dystrophies or the peroxisomal disorders, an exome sequencing was requested. It revealed a combination of Zellweger syndrome and Ullrich congenital muscular dystrophy type 1.
Inherited Manganese Disorders and the Brain

Although acquired manganese neurotoxicity has been widely reported since its first description in 1837 and is popularly referred to as “manganism,” inherited disorders of manganese homeostasis have received the first genetic signature as recently as 2012. These disorders, predominantly described in children and adolescents, involve mutations in three manganese transporter genes, i.e., SLC30A10 and SLC39A14 which lead to manganese overload, and SLC39A8, which leads to manganese deficiency. Both disorders of inherited hypermanganesemia typically exhibit dystonia and parkinsonism with relatively preserved cognition and are differentiated by the occurrence of polycythemia and liver involvement in the SLC30A10-associated condition. Mutations in SLC39A8 lead to a congenital disorder of glycosylation which presents with developmental delay, failure to thrive, intellectual impairment, and seizures due to manganese deficiency. Chelation with iron supplementation is the treatment of choice in inherited hypermanganesemia. In this review, we highlight the pathognomonic clinical, laboratory, imaging features and treatment modalities for these rare disorders.
