Pre-curettage cerclage in a viable triplet cervical pregnancy: A case report and review of literature
Authors: Mahdavi Atossa , Aleyasin Ashraf , Sheibani Nazanin
Published: August 2019

Background: Cervical ectopic pregnancy (CEP) is a rare and dangerous form of ectopic pregnancy in which the blastocyst is installed within the endo-cervical canal. CEP diagnosis requires special awareness to evaluate patient precisely. Individualizing controversial medical and surgical management strategies is of importance in medical practice.
Case: A 35-year-old nulliparous woman on her 9th week of pregnancy was referred to our hospital with vaginal bleeding preliminary misdiagnosed as aborting intrauterine pregnancy. Transvaginal ultrasound revealed an empty uterus and a viable triplet pregnancy just below the level of internal os. Cervical curettage after cerclage suture placement procedure removed conception tissues completely. Consequently, in the next few hours vaginal bleeding decreased to minimal amount and vital signs remained within normal limits and there was no hematocrit change. On follow-up day 32, serum B-HCG became negative.
Conclusion: CEP diagnosis requires special attention and awareness to evaluate patient precisely along with skillful assessment of possible risk factors. Lifesaving treatment beside fertility preservation was successful with pre-curettage cerclage.

Published: August 2019

In the beginning of the 20th century, feminist literary theory was concerned mainly
with the social and political role of women, as well as women’s role in literature. In
the second half of the century, it is tried to study women’s social positions and their
rights compared to the male counterpart. One of the most explored themes since
then was gender and patriarchy. The aim of this paper is to show how women were
depicted in literature after half a century of the struggle of the first wave feminist
towards equality and stress the importance of theorizing the concept of patriarchy, as a
first step to understanding women’s subjugation. This unfolds through a re-visitation of
George Orwell’s fiction novels. Orwell is better known by his political writing. Although
he has never used the word “Feminism”, in any of his fictional works, two decades
after his death, the radical feminist, Daphne Patai accused him that he is anti-feminist,
fundamentally because of his deprecatory stands towards women through his female
characters. The selected texts reinforce patriarchal ideology, through the way Orwell
portrayed his male and female characters. A feminist analytical approach will be
adopted in the realization of this research, in order to analyse the novel in depth, with
a focus on Orwell’s portrayal of female characters. Observing and commenting how he
debases, mistreats and degrades them. Further, it sheds the light on how he portrays
his male characters by analysing female and male protagonists. The significant of the
study is to show the social and political context of the time regarding the role and the
identity of women in the British society in the 20th century, and how women were
treated under patriarch society and still until our days. Moreover, it sheds light on how
patriarchy the concept of women oppression helped in the development of feminist
theories.

Authors: A. Shanthi , X Thayalan , P Suppiah
Published: August 2019

Web-forum discussions are widely used in business, health and education and in
general discussion virtually. This practice of sharing information via Internet is also
known as Computer Mediated Discourse (CMD). By focusing on language used in
web-forums, this study explores the practice of collaborative information sharing in
Malaysian web-forums discourse by using Speech Acts Theory. The study found
that forum-members used different speech acts to share information in an interactive
manner. However, speech acts such as to explain, to suggest and to question were
used more extensively than other types of speech acts. The study also found that
speech acts to denote politeness such as to apologise, to greet were used in the
web-forum interaction to sustain collaboration and camaraderie in online information
sharing practices. The discourse pattern reveals that web-forum members interacted
at two phrases; Phase 1 to seek general information about the topic of discussion, and
Phase II to have a deeper discussion where new information is added to the topic
of discussion that leads to new knowledge being created. The findings of the study
can benefit our understandings on how best to conduct online interaction, be it in the
business, health or academic sectors.
Real-World Training for Real-World Benefits: Exploring the Impact of Practice-Based Service Evaluation Training
Authors:   University of Leeds, UK, Price Matthew , Latchford Gary ,   University of Leeds, UK, Hughes Jan ,   University of Leeds, UK
Published: August 2019

Service evaluation is a major part of delivering effective healthcare. It is important that the future workforce of clinical psychologists is equipped with the skills required to complete evaluations of the services that they deliver. This article investigated the extent to which practice-based Service Evaluation Projects (SEPs) completed by trainee clinical psychologists at the University of Leeds had an impact on the real-world services that commissioned them. Descriptive analysis was used to summarise the characteristics of SEPs completed over the past thirteen years and to explore feedback from semi-structured interviews held with a sample of commissioners. Thematic analysis was used to identify key themes relating to the impact of SEPs. 230 SEPs have been completed in the past thirteen years. Interviews with 15 commissioners concerning 38 individual SEPs found that the majority had a positive impact (n = 33), most of which were able to bring about a change independently of other initiatives within the service (n = 20). Almost all would have been impossible without the opportunity for clinicians to commission SEPs via the university. Three key themes emerged in terms of impact: improving processes; improving knowledge; and improving resources. Practice-based service evaluations completed by trainee clinical psychologists can lead to a positive impact on real-world services. This suggests that providing training experiences ‘in the field’ is a helpful pedagogical strategy, adding value to services as well as trainee health professionals.

Authors: Toson Elshahat Abo-Mosalam , Ahmed Hanaa Hamdy , El-mezayen Hatem Abdel Moneim , Rashed Laila Ahmed , Elsherbiny Eslam Samy
Published: August 2019

BACKGROUND: Stem cell-based therapy may represent the first realistic option for tissue repairing and regeneration. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are proved to be involved in the regeneration of many tissues which are subjected to different types of injury. Cyclosporine (CsA) in spite of its use as immune suppressive drug during kidney transplantation, it was considered as important model of nephropathy specially, during long-term administration.METHODS: Isolation and preparation of MSCs using Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM), in vitro differentiation through adipogenesis chondrogenesis and osteogenesis was confirmed by using Alizarin Red S stain, Oil Red O stain and Alcian Blue stain, respectively, characterization using flow cytometry technique to detect cluster of differentiation (CD)34, CD44 and CD105 surface markers and homing of MSCs using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) Sry gene assay, were executed. Serum levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), endothelin-1 (ET-1) and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) were quantified using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits based on the principle of double-antibody sandwich technique. The structural organization of kidney tissue was examined using histological procedures.RESULTS: Single intravenous dose of MSCs is capable to boost kidney repairment process as indicated by the significant decrease in serum ET-1 level paralleled by significant increase in VEGF and eNOS. Moreover, histological findings revealed the improvement of focal hemorrhage in between the degenerated tubules, congestion in the cortical blood vessels, vacuolization in the endothelial cells lining the glomerular tufts and focal perivascular inflammatory cells aggregation.CONCLUSION: This study demonstrated the favorable influence of MSCs in repressing cyclosporine-induced nephropathy in rats. This could be achieved through angiogenic and anti-arteriolopathic mechanisms.KEYWORDS: angiogenesis, cyclosporine, endothelin-1, MSCs, nephropathy

Authors: Lestari Keri , Ridho Abdurahman , Nurcayani Nuning , Ramadhania Zelika Mega , Barliana Melisa Intan
Published: August 2019

BACKGROUND: The prevalence of diabetes mellitus is growing every year, including in Indonesia. Medicinal herbs were used empirically for lowering blood glucose. One of potential herb to have hypoglycemic activity is Stevia. Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni leaves contain stevoside, a natural, low-calorie sweetener that is 300 times sweeter than saccharose. In this study, we aimed to explore the hypoglycemic activity of S. rebaudiana Bertoni leaves extract in a rat model of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS: Male Wistar rats were feed high-fat, high-carbohydrate feed and sugar solution for 74 days to induce a diabetic rat model. The animals were then divided into five groups consisting of a negative control group treated with 2% Pulvis Gom Arabicum; a positive control group treated with Metformin 45 mg/kg body weight (BW); and three test groups treated with aqueous extract of S. rebaudiana Bertoni leaves at doses of 3.125, 6.25 and 12.5 mg/kg BW for 36 days. Blood glucose was measured on days 14, 28 and 36.RESULTS: The results showed that blood glucose levels over 36 days were significantly (p=0.043) lower in the group treated with S. rebaudiana Bertoni leaves extract. Further Newman-Keuls analysis suggested that the hypoglycemic activity of S. rebaudiana Bertoni leaves extract was dose-dependent. CONCLUSION: Our results indicate that S. rebaudiana Bertoni leaves extract has a potential role as a hypoglycemic agent in the treatment of T2DM.KEYWORDS: Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni, nutraceuticals, hypoglycemic, diabetic rats

Published: August 2019

BACKGROUND: Organ damage due to iron toxicity is one factor that increases the risk of getting cardiovascular and metabolic diseases in thalassemia patient. This study aims to determine glucose and lipid profiles in adolescents with thalassemia major and its association with iron overload in pancreas and liver.METHODS: This was a cross sectional study. Subjects were thalassemia major adolescents without any confounding factors that may affect glucose and lipid levels. Blood samples were collected to measure the glucose level, lipid profiles, ferritin level and transferrin saturation. T2-Magnetic Resonance Imaging was used to evaluate the iron overload in organs.RESULTS: From a total of 60 subjects, diabetes mellitus was diagnosed in 1 subject and impaired fasting glucose was diagnosed in 3 subjects. All subjects had high triglycerides/ high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) ratio, 59 subjects (98%) had low HDL-C, 18 subjects (30%) had hypertriglyceridemia, and none had abnormal high level of low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C). The majority of subjects had ferritin ≥2,500 ng/mL (70%), mild pancreatic iron overload (56.6%), and moderate hepatic iron overload (43.8%). Degree of hyperferritinemia was not associated with glucose and lipid profiles. Blood glucose profiles were not associated with various degree of pancreatic iron overload. Similar result was also observed between lipid profiles and hepatic iron overload.CONCLUSION: Abnormal glucose and lipid profiles in thalassemia major can be found in adolescence. Normal blood glucose level isn’t necessarily associated with normal pancreatic iron deposition. Hepatic iron overload may worsen dyslipidemia in thalassemia major patients.KEYWORDS: glucose profile, lipid profile, pancreatic iron overload, hepatic iron overload, thalassemia major
Comportamento Verbal e Correspondência no Filme Rashômon
Authors: De Rose Julio Cesar
Published: August 2019

O filme Rashômon, dirigido por Akira Kurosawa e lançado em 1950, costuma estar presente em todas as listas de melhores filmes de todos os tempos elaboradas por conhecedores de cinema. Vários personagens do filme narram o mesmo evento, mas os testemunhos são completamente diferentes. Neste artigo tratamos os personagens como se fossem pessoas reais. Seus relatos são, assim, tratados como se fossem comportamento verbal de pessoas reais, sujeitas a contingências reais. Podemos nos perguntar, então, quais seriam as variáveis responsáveis pelas discrepâncias nas histórias. Neste caso, é possível fazer conjecturas e hipóteses, mas falta um elemento essencial para aferir nossas hipóteses: como só poderíamos saber o que aconteceu com base no relato das testemunhas, e como não há confirmação independente dos detalhes da história, não podemos avaliar o quanto as descrições estão de fato sob controle dos presumidos acontecimentos

Published: August 2019

A dominação masculina é uma prática cultural que pode ser verificada em diferentes contextos, inclusive na universidade, como ilustrado nos casos de assédio sexual cometidos por professores contra alunas. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi investigar práticas de dominação masculina no ambiente universitário por meio da análise de relatos verbais de alunas postados em uma página do Facebook intitulada “Meu professor abusador”, utilizada para explicitar comportamentos abusivos emitidos por professores no âmbito educacional formal. Foram realizadas análises de 93 relatos que descreviam situações de abuso, perpetrados por professores universitários. Os principais aspectos identificados nos relatos foram: comportamentos abusivos na forma de brincadeiras e piadas; estereótipos de professores abusadores; o caráter gradativo do abuso; proposta de sexo em troca de notas, ilustrando o manejo de reforçadores e punidores típicos do contexto universitário. Foram descritos os efeitos dos abusos para o percurso acadêmico das alunas, como desistir de matérias, projetos, e da própria vida acadêmica; e também os comportamentos das alunas perante o abuso, com destaque para o comportamento de aquiescer, que pode acabar reforçando o comportamento abusivo do professor. Ressalta-se a importância da denúncia e da criação de instâncias na universidade que possam acolher, encaminhar, discutir e prevenir casos de assédio sexual.
¿Pacto autobiográfico o pacto novelesco? La doble autoficción de Marechal en Adán Buenosayres
Authors: Davis González Ana
Published: August 2019

El proceso creativo particular de la autoficción dificulta la delimitación de toda obra artística que se inscriba a este subgénero. Su doble referencialidad, a diferencia de la autobiografía, permite que el lector juzgue la obra teniendo en consideración dos pactos ficcionales: el novelesco y el autobiográfico. La ambivalencia derivada de su confluencia permite hablar de pacto de lectura ambiguo, del cual se desprenden dos referentes simultáneos –biográfico y ficticio– (Alberca, 2005). En este trabajo, se pretende señalar la necesidad de romper con dicha indeterminación mediante la separación entre los pactos de lectura: si el lector atiende al autobiográfico, el resultado será distinto a si nos centramos en el novelesco. En las líneas que siguen, se ejemplificará dicha propuesta a partir de la primera novela del escritor argentino Leopoldo Marechal, Adán Buenosayres (1948), con el fin de determinar qué consecuencias tiene esta sugerencia de lectura para la obra aquí analizada

El artículo socializa los resultados parciales que surgen del análisis y la revisión de los catálogos de las editoriales independientes bogotanas (Colombia) y cordobesas (Argentina) que realizan publicaciones orientadas a un público infantil y juvenil. Esto se acompaña, a modo de contexto de una problematización que ha traído consigo la influencia de políticas públicas en temas sobre promoción de lectura coincidente con el florecimiento de editoriales independientes en toda la región en el subsector editorial infantil y juvenil. Metodológicamente, con una estrategia comparativa se cotejaron los catálogos y las implicaciones de estos dispositivos en una ventana de observación de cinco años. Se revisaron variables como: la unidad interna del sistema, la congruencia conversacional de los textos, la pertinencia al contexto, los géneros recurrentes, su apuesta frente al mercado, la estética y poética, y el diseño editorial. Esto se complementó con entrevistas semiestructuradas con los editores que permitieron discutir lo observado.
Palabras del fondo y grados de peligrosidad: la filosofía nietzscheana en Los siete locos y Los Lanzallamas de Roberto Arlt
Authors: Niño Arteaga Yesid
Published: August 2019

Este artículo reflexiona en el presupuesto de que el escritor argentino Roberto Arlt fue un incansable lector de la filosofía del alemán Friedrich Nietzsche y que en sus novelas Los siete locos y Los lanzallamas se establece una profunda relación con el pensamiento de lo trágico que resulta característico del pensamiento filosófico de Nietzsche. Seguidamente, el artículo reflexiona sobre los alcances, la permeabilidad y las contaminaciones presentes en las novelas, Los siete locos y Los lanzallamas, profundizando en las oportunidades creativas y literarias de su narrativa así como en sus imágenes del lenguaje. Finalmente se estudia el influjo de presupuestos nietzscheanos como la posibilidad de transgresión, la agresión en el lenguaje, la transvaloración y las relaciones de fuerzas, que permean el sentido de lo trágico y lo condensan desde la no-genialidad de la novelística arltiana.
“BEHIND OUR LULLABIES”: FEMININE MYTHOLOGIES IN CONTEMPORARY WOMEN’S POETRY
Authors: Vujin Bojana
Published: August 2019

In the Western canon, poetry and mythology have always been connected, and poetry has often reached for the myth in its attempt to understand humanity. The phallogocentric patriarchy has, however, marginalised femininity, thus creating an imbalanced, androcentric cultural milieu. In the second half of the twentieth century, with the rise of feminism and the postmodern rejection of grand narratives, many women poets have sought to rectify this situation, bringing forth a plethora of works that address the issue. The paper explores this idea, using the mythological figure of Penelope as an example of harmful ways of constructing femininity. It also focuses on the postmodern notion of the demarginalisation of the previously voiceless, through the analysis of Carol Ann Duffy’s collection The World’s Wife. In a broader sense, it examines how contemporary women’s poetry in English reappropriates the mythological feminine.
