Published: October 2020

(1) Background: The influenza A/H1N1 pdm09 virus rapidly spread throughout the world. Despite the inflammatory and virus-degradation pathways described in the pathogenesis of influenza A virus (IAV) infection, little is known about the role of the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the genes involved in the processing and antigenic presentation-related mechanisms. (2) Methods: In this case-control study, we evaluated 17 SNPs in five genes (TAP1, TAP2, TAPBP, PSMB8, and PSMB9). One hundred and twenty-eight patients with influenza A/H1N1 infection (INF-P) and 111 healthy contacts (HC) were included; all of them are Mexican mestizo. (3) Results: In allele and genotype comparison, the rs241433/C allele (TAP2), as well as AG haplotype (rs3763365 and rs4148882), are associated with reduced risk for influenza A/H1N1 infection (p < 0.05). On the other hand, the rs2071888G allele (TAPBP) and GG haplotype (rs3763365 and rs9276810) are associated with a higher risk for influenza A/H1N1 infection. In addition, after adjustment for covariates, the association to a reduced risk for influenza A/H1N1 infection remains with rs241433/C allele (p < 0.0001, OR = 0.24, 95% CI = 0.13–0.43), and the association with TAPBP is also maintained with the G allele (p = 0.0095, OR = 1.89, 95% CI = 1.17–3.06) and GG genotype models (p < 0.05, OR = 2.18, 95% CI = 1.27–3.74). (4) Conclusion: The rs241433/C allele and AC genotype (TAP2) and the AG haplotype are associated with a reduced risk for influenza A/H1N1 infection. In addition, the rs2071888/G allele and GG genotype (TAPBP) and the GG haplotype are associated with a higher risk for developing influenza A/H1N1 infection in a Mexican mestizo population.

Nous présentons les preuves archéologiques d’un établissement commercial datant du XIIIe au milieu du XVIe siècle EC sur un promontoire élevé du village de Lamreh, à environ 30 km à l’est de Banda Aceh, sur la côte nord de Sumatra, en Indonésie. Nous l’identifions au site historique de Lamri, décrit par les sources textuelles comme un noeud important de la « route de la soie » maritime entre le IXe et le XVIe siècle EC. Notre prospection a révélé de grandes concentrations de céramiques sur le promontoire, qui datent du début du XIIIe siècle jusqu’au milieu du XVIe siècle, certaines de qualité impériale. Plusieurs des stèles funéraires musulmanes de ce site sont d’un type particulier et datent de la quasi-totalité du XVe siècle. Les données géologiques suggèrent que les parties basses de Lamri ont été détruites par un fort tsunami à la fin du XIVe siècle. Cependant, nos données montrent que l’activité sur le promontoire s’est poursuivie jusqu’à ce que le site soit abandonné au milieu du XVIe siècle. L’absence de culture matérielle datant du IXe au XIIIe siècle suggère que les références textuelles antérieures à Lamri se référaient plus généralement à une grande partie de la côte nord de Sumatra, le village de Lamreh ne devenant le centre géographique du Lamri historique qu’après le tournant du XIIIe siècle.
Karnavalizmin Çocuk Edebiyatına Yansıması ve Pedagojik İşlevi
Authors: ŞEN Erhan
Published: October 2020

Bu çalışmada çağdaş edebiyat kuramcılarından Mihail Bahtin (1895-1975)’in karnavalizm kavramı açıklanmış, bunun çocuk edebiyatına yansımaları ve pedagojik işlevi tartışılmıştır. Çocuk edebiyatı öncelikle yetişkin performansına dayalı bir yazınsal üretim formudur. Yapıtın kurgulanmasından, basılmasına ve alınıp satılmasına kadarki tüm süreçlerde etkin kişiler yetişkinlerdir. Çocuk ise bu alanda çoğunlukla okur konumundadır, yani metnin tüketicisidir. Bu nedenle çocuk edebiyatında yetişkin bakış açısının egemenliğinden söz edilebilir. Ancak karnavalistik görme biçimiyle yazılmış bazı metinler bu otoriteyi yıkar, toplumu ya da yetişkini aşan bir güçle çocuğu donatır ve bağımsızlaştırır. Bu tür metinlerdeki karnavalesk karakterler aracılığıyla çocuk okur bireyin bazen toplumsal normlardan daha güçlü olabileceğini sezer, ideolojik aygıtların bireyi nasıl biçimlendireceğine dönük bir öngörü kazanır, eleştiri kültürü edinir. Böylelikle çocuk, imgelemsel bir alanda da olsa bir yandan özneleşirken öte yandan da sosyo-kültürel mekanizmanın ısrarla dayattığı normlara ilişkin bilinç kazanır. Karnaval ruhunun çocuk edebiyatı yapıtlarında diğer bir önemli işlevi de şiddet olgusunun çocuğa uygun bir yöntemle işlenmesine hizmet etmektedir.

Se considera que el análisis de los dibujos digitales y observaciones realizadas durante el proceso de copiado contribuyen al estudio de las especificidades de la tumba. El objetivo del presente trabajo es presentar el proceso de digitalización y las estrategias adoptadas para mejorar los dibujos a fin de contribuir al corpus documental y estilístico post-amarniano.
Economic complexity and structural transformation: the case of Mozambique
Authors: Sørensen Bjørn Bo , Estmann Christian , Sarmento Enilde Francisco , Rand John
Published: October 2020

Mozambique is among the world’s least complex economies. By systematically accounting for both supply- and demand-side factors, we identify new products and sectors that can help to diversify and upgrade its economy. In a supply-side analysis, we use network methods from the literature on economic complexity to identify a set of target products that are complex, require productive capabilities useful in the export of other products, and are close to Mozambique’s existing productive structure. In a demand-side analysis, we use gravity models to predict the export potential of target products and markets given product-specific trade resistance and geographically dispersed demand. The broad sectoral focus of Mozambique’s industrial policy is largely consistent with structural transformation and export promotion. The current prioritization of agriculture, agro-industry, and metals is especially important, while there are unexploited opportunities in machinery, vehicles, and transport equipment. We find some potential for Mozambique to export target products to neighbouring countries.

Microflora de la cavidad bucal en recién nacidos post parto natural inmediato.
Authors: Minaya-Flores Edith , Figueroa-Banda Rufo
Published: October 2020

La microflora oral es un ecosistema muy variado, sin embargo, antes de darse el parto natural nuestra cavidad bucal se encuentra completamente estéril, pero es en el momento del nacimiento donde comienza la colonización de diferentes microorganismos ya que cuando el feto entra en contacto por el canal del parto, son estos microorganismos capaces de adherirse a las mucosas y comenzar dicha colonización en el recién nacido. Objetivos El presente trabajo de investigación se orienta a lo que pueda suceder microbiológicamente en los primeros minutos de vida extrauterina, es decir a la presencia de microorganismos en la cavidad bucal del recién nacido post parto natural inmediato y así como la relación que existe entre la microflora y el parto natural. Materiales y Métodos Para dicho estudio se consideró 25 pacientes recién nacidos por parto eutócico de los cuales se recogió 50 muestras de su cavidad bucal del Hospital Goyeneche, Arequipa-2017. Resultados Se realizaron los análisis de las muestras recolectadas teniendo como resultados presencia de Escherichia Coli y Staphilococos Epidermidis en su cavidad bucal. Conclusiones Existe relación entre la presencia de microorganismos y el parto natural; por lo tanto la hipótesis planteada se acepta, además se obtuvieron como conclusión que: A mayor tiempo: de parto, de coronado y que transcurre desde la rotura de membrana hasta el parto; existe una mayor probabilidad de presencia de microorganismos en la cavidad bucal de los recién nacidos.

Published: October 2020

The article presents the results of an investigation about the meanings that university students give to the learning that occurs in this context. We worked with a qualitative design in order to discover and deepen the dimensions involved in this learning, the definitions about it and the strategies put into play. The sample consisted of twenty-five students of the last year of careers taught at the Paraná Headquarters of the Universidad Católica Argentina (UCA). The focused interview was used. It included the technique of choosing objects that allows the construction of metaphors, in this case of university learning. Thus, the findings allow the notion of university learning to be expanded to fields not directly linked to the academic, cognitive or performance aspects, but to issues that specify the curricular and didactic, subjective, family, relational and teaching dimensions. In addition, they describe the objects of learning (WHAT is learned), elucidate the definitions about it (WHAT it is) and determine strategies for studying and passing, ways of learning and advancing in the career respectively. The conclusions refer to positioning an inescapable psychopedagogical view that articulates different theoretical frameworks.

Autism spectrum disorder or autism is a disruption circumstance of undeveloped brains affecting patient’s abilities in communicating and social interacting with others. Autism resulted in patient’s misbehaviour and limited patient’s interest. In some cases, some children having difficulties in interacting or communicating; they have their own world and abandoned social environment; therefore, it is called autism spectrum disorder or autism. The fact that some parents have not realized the autism symptoms on their children as well as being late in putting them in particular treatments is due to less inclusive facilities in Bali, particularly in Denpasar City, such as therapies room and other related facilities. An inclusive facility for autism children patients, and designing a room in accordance with the theme and concept taken by Methamorphoo with the concept of the Harmonious Line Of Scandinavian. In this design, some therapy rooms are provided including behavioral therapy including occupational therapy and ABA, speech therapy, physiotherapy therapy, play therapy, swimming therapy, transition classes and self development classes, it is expected this design is able to meet the therapeutic needs for autism children.

Secret Key Generation Assisted by Intelligent Reflecting Surface with Discrete Phase Shift in Static Environment
Authors: Hu Xiaoyan , Jin Liang , Huang Kaizhi
Published: October 2020

Physical
layer secret key generation is a promising candidate to achieve one-time-pad
encryption approach for wireless communication system. The main issue of this
method is the insufficient secret key rate. Especially in a static environment,
the entropy of the channel complex coefficient is limited due to the lack of channel
time-variation. To solve the problem, this paper proposes a novel secret key
generation scheme assisted by intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) with
discrete phase. We construct a dynamic time-varying channel by switching the
phase of the reflection elements rapidly and randomly, and use channel
estimation samples to update the secret key. Based on the common IRS channel model,
we derive the expression of secret key rate. Monte Carlo simulation and
numerical results show that the scheme can update secret key even if the channel
coefficient is constant, and the secret key rate is higher than schemes based
on artificial random signal. In addition, we comprehensively analyze the
influence of various factors, such as the number of reflection elements and the
IRS switching frequency on the secret key rate. 
On Fast and Effective Influence Spread Maximization in Social Networks
Authors: Scarabaggio Paolo , Carli Raffaele , Dotoli Mariagrazia
Published: October 2020

The ability of social networks to disseminate information across individuals and groups is based on the social influence that people have on each other.

In this context, the so-called influence maximization problem consists in identifying the most influential nodes of a given social network. 

This problem has practical relevance in a wide range of applications and despite the underlying computational complexity, several solution techniques have been presented in the related literature. Nonetheless, bringing together technical feasibility and satisfactory accuracy is still a challenging open research issue.

In this work, we address the influence maximization problem with two complementary contributions. First, we analyze two well-known influence diffusion models, namely the independent cascade and the linear threshold models, and provide a new methodology for addressing the problem of computing the influence spread in a given network. Subsequently, we propose a novel approach to select an initial set of nodes that optimizes the influence spread in large-scale scenarios.

We apply these techniques to several large-scale experiments in real-world scenarios achieving results comparable with the best-performing state-of-the-art algorithms in a shorter computational time.

An Event-Based, Digital Time Difference Encoder Model Implementation for Neuromorphic Systems
Authors: Gutierrez-galan Daniel , Schoepe Thorben , Dominguez-Morales Juan Pedro , Jimenez-Fernandez Angel , Chicca Elisabetta , Linares-Barranco Alejandro
Published: October 2020

Neuromorphic systems are a viable alternative to conventional systems for real-time tasks with constrained resources. Their low power consumption, compact hardware realization, and low-latency response characteristics are the key ingredients of such systems. Furthermore, the event-based signal processing approach can be exploited for reducing the computational load and avoiding data loss, thanks to its inherently sparse representation of sensed data and adaptive sampling time. In event-based systems, the information is commonly coded by the number of spikes within a specific temporal window. However, event-based signals may contain temporal information which is complex to extract when using rate coding. In this work, we present a novel digital implementation of the model, called Time Difference Encoder, for temporal encoding on event-based signals, which translates the time difference between two consecutive input events into a burst of output events. The number of output events along with the time between them encodes the temporal information. The proposed model has been implemented as a digital circuit with a configurable time constant, allowing it to be used in a wide range of sensing tasks which require the encoding of the time difference between events, such as optical flow based obstacle avoidance, sound source localization and gas source localization. This proposed bio-inspired model offers an alternative to the Jeffress model for the Interaural Time Difference estimation, validated with a sound source lateralization proof-of-concept. The model has been simulated and implemented on an FPGA, requiring 122 slice registers of hardware resources and less than 1 mW of power consumption.

Pengaruh Model Pembelajaran Daring Akibat Pandemi Covid-19 Terhadap Prestasi Belajar Mahasiswa UNAI pada Semester Genap 2019/2020
Authors: Limbong Albinur
Published: October 2020

Artikel ini adalah sebuah laporan studi tentang dampak dari perubahan yang tiba-tiba dalam model pembelajaran yang tadinya tatap muka di kelas menjadi daring, diakibatkan oleh pandemi covid-19, di Universitas Advent Indonesia tahun 2019/2020. Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah semua mahasiswa yang mendaftar pada semester ganjil dan genap tahun 19/20, yang berjumlah 1516 orang, dan semua populasi menjadi sampel. Prestasi belajar mahasiswa hanya dilihat dari Indeks Prestasi semester (IPS) yang dicapai oleh mahasiswa pada akhir semester yang diikuti. Secara umum untuk level universitas prestasi belajar mahasiswa meningkat, walau secara fakultas ada dua fakultas yang mengalami sedikit penurunan yaitu fakultas ekonomi dan Keguruan dan Ilmu Pendidikan, sedangkan fakultas lain mengalami kenaikan.  Secara tingkat didapat bahwa yang mengalami dampak negative dari pembelajaran daring adalah mahasiswa baru (tingkat 1), sedangkan tingkat 2 dan seterusnya tidak mengalami masalah dalam prestasi, bahkan justru berdampak yang positif, dengan adanya peningkatan dalam IPS. Secara jenis kelamin didapat bahwa baik mahasiswa pria maupun wanita mengalami dampak positif pada prestasi belajar, namun rerata IPS pada wanita lebih besar dari pria. Hasil penelitian ini agak mengherankan karena tadinya diduga akan ada penurunan IPS mahasiswa akibat perubahan yang drastic dalam model pembelajaran dari tatap muka menjadi daring. Namun dari hasil ini disimpulkan Universitas Advent Indonesia cukup berhasil mengatasi kendala-kendala yang terjadi akibat perubahan pembelajaran tersebut, bahkan pandemi covid-19 berdampak positif pada prestasi belajar mahasiswa. Itu terjadi karena baik mahasiswa maupun dosen dapat bekerja sama untuk mengatasi setiap kendala yang terjadi dalam perubahan model pembelajaran. Hasil penelitian ini perlu dilanjutkan untuk melihat efek jangka panjang dari pembelajaran daring, apakah prestasi belajar terus meningkat atau tidak, dengan melihat hasil pembelajaran pada semester ganjil 2020/2021 yang akan datang.
Case Report: Metastatic Dedifferentiated Liposarcoma Presenting as Hypereosinophilia in an Adolescent
Authors: Balasubramanyam Sadhana , Hajjar Joud
Published: October 2020

Soft-tissue sarcomas associated with eosinophilia are rare, with limited cases reported in adults, and even fewer in the pediatric population. In this report, we highlight the importance of malignancy in the differential of hypereosinophilia in an adolescent. A 17-year-old boy presented with incidental findings of multiple bilateral pulmonary nodules on chest computed tomography (CT), and hypereosinophilia (absolute eosinophilic count [AEC] 7029 cells/mm3, hypereosinophilia defined as AEC >1500 cells/mm3). Lung biopsy showed high-grade metastatic sarcoma. A positron emission tomography–computed tomography (PET-CT) demonstrated a 7.9-cm mass in the left thigh, with biopsy revealing dedifferentiated liposarcoma. Subsequently, the patient was diagnosed with liposarcoma, with lung, mediastinal, and brain metastases. He completed six cycles of ifosfamide/doxorubicin, followed by surgical resection of primary thigh tumor and brain lesion. Given widely metastatic disease, he received palliative chemotherapy, and later transitioned to hospice. The patient died of respiratory failure from malignant pleural effusions. In conclusion, this case demonstrates the importance of a having a broad differential for hypereosinophilia, including malignancy, to expedite the diagnosis and initiate appropriate management promptly.

Bu görünme çabası “gösteri” ile yakından ilişkilidir ve sosyal medya bunu hem kolaylaştıran hem de tetikleyen bir mecradır. Bir yandan da bu durum insanları giderek narsisist yaparken, narsisizmi çağımızın değeri haline getirmiştir. Netice olarak bu makale Veblen’in aylak sınıf ve DeBord’un gösteri kavramı üzerinden bir zeitgeist eleştirisidir.
Göç ve Entegrasyon: Türkiye'de "Uyum" ama Nasıl?
Authors: GÜLER Hasan
Published: October 2020

ÖZ
Bu çalışmada, Türkiye’de artan göçü düzenlemek için 2014 yılında yürürlüğe giren “Yabancılar ve Uluslararası Koruma Kanununun” uyum konusuna yaklaşımı kapsamında, göçmenlerin ev sahibi toplumla olan ilişkileri ele alınacaktır. Göçmenlerin çoğunluk toplumuna uyumunun nasıl olacağı genelde asimilasyon, entegrasyon ve çokkültürlülük kavramları çerçevesinde tartışılmaktadır. Bu makalede, birlikte yaşama modelleri olarak da tanımlanan asimilasyon ve entegrasyon kavramlarını merkeze alarak Türkiye’nin göç politikasının eleştirel okuması yapılacaktır. Bu çalışmadaki temel argümanımız, Türkiye’nin göçmen uyumun ilişkin politikasının muğlaklık üzerinden şekillendiği ve göçmenlerin kalıcı olamayacağı varsayımının bu politikanın temeli olduğudur.
Anahtar Kelimler: Türkiye, göç, asimilasyon, entegrasyon, göçmen
SB Teşkilat Yapısına İlişkin Centralisation - Decentralisation - Recentralisation Düzenlemeleri Üzerine Bir İnceleme
Authors: EKEN İhsan
Published: October 2020

Bakanlıklar, Türkiye’de kamu politikalarının temel uygulayıcılarındandır. Bakanlıkların teşkilat yapıları küresel düzeydeki etken, aktör ve süreçler, ulusal ölçekte talep ve ihtiyaçlar ile sunulan hizmetlerin getirdiği gereklilikler çerçevesinde dönüşerek şekillenmektedir. Kuşkusuz bu değişim ve dönüşüm gayretlerindeki temel amaç hizmetlerin daha iyi düzeyde, kaliteli, verimli ve etkin sunulmasının sağlanması için iyi bir idari yapılanma oluşturmaktır. Bu yönetsel yapının centralize mi yoksa decentralize mi olması gerektiği konusu geçmişten günümüze tartışılagelmiş ve kendi konjonktürel gerçeklikleri çerçevesinde her iki görüş de uygulanma şansı bulmuştur. İlk bakanlıklardan olan T.C. Sağlık Bakanlığı, 3 Mayıs 1920 tarihinde 03 sayılı kanun ile kurulmuştur. Bakanlığın merkezi ve taşra teşkilat yapısına ilişkin olarak günümüze kadar 1936 tarih ve 3017 sayılı “Sıhhat ve İçtimai Muavenet Vekaleti Teşkilat ve Memurin Kanunu”; 1983 tarih ve 181 sayılı “Sağlık Bakanlığının Teşkilat ve Görevleri Hakkında Kanun Hükmünde Kararname”; 2011 tarih ve 663 sayılı “Sağlık Bakanlığı ve Bağlı Kuruluşlarının Teşkilat ve Görevleri Hakkında Kanun Hükmünde Karararname” ; 2017 tarih ve 694 sayılı “Olağanüstü Hal Kapsamında Bazı Düzenlemeler Yapılması Hakkında Kanun Hükmünde Kararname” ve son olarak 2018 tarih ve 01 sayılı “Cumhurbaşkanlığı Teşkilatı Hakkında Cumhurbaşkanlığı Kararnamesi” ile bir takım temel düzenlemeler yapılmıştır.
Çalışmanın konusu, Sağlık Bakanlığı’nın kuruluşundan bu yana teşkilat yapısına ilişkin gerçekleştirilen temel yasal düzenlemelerin centralisation-decentralisation-recentralisation kavramları çerçevesinde incelenmesidir. Bu doğrultuda yapılan düzenlemelerin birbiri ile mukayesesi yapılarak, yaşanan organizasyon sorunu ve uygun teşkilat yapısı arayışının analizi amaçlanmıştır. Mevcut durumda, Bakanlığın kısmen geri dönüş yaşayarak teşkilat yapısı konusundaki yaşanan sorunları atlatmaya çalışmasına karşın henüz birçok kafa karışıklıklarının olduğu ve teşkilat yapısında ilerleyen dönemlerde yeni değişimlerin yaşanabileceği düşünülmektedir. Bu çerçevede elde edilen temel bulgular doğrultusunda önerilerde bulunulmaktadır. Çalışmada betimsel araştırma yöntemi kullanılmıştır.

Introdução: O envelhecimento é um processo natural e progressivo da vida que envolve danos no plano biológico e na qualidade de vida dos idosos. O câncer afeta diretamente a vida do paciente idoso, gerando impacto na funcionalidade desse individuo, somando-se aos declínios físicos e biológicos que o processo do envelhecimento acarreta. Objetivo: Traçar o perfil epidemiológico e de qualidade de vida de pacientes idosos com câncer internados em um hospital de referência oncológica da região norte. Método: Trata-se de um estudo transversal descritivo realizado em idosos com diagnóstico de câncer e internados no Hospital Ophir Loyola (HOL) em Belém do Pará, Brasil. Resultado: Foram avaliados 30 pacientes, com idade prevalente de 61-70 anos (60%), do sexo feminino (56,7%), a maioria com estado civil casado (63,3%). Constatou-se que o câncer que mais é acometido é o CA de mama (23,3%). Já em relação a morbidades mais acometidas, a alteração visual foi a de maior frequência (90%). A classificação do desempenho do paciente segundo a escala PS-ECOG com maior frequência foi de um e dois e os domínios que tiveram maior pontuação e menor impacto na qualidade de vida foram a intimidade com (76.3±21.4) e o funcionamento sensório (71.7±24.1). Conclusão: Os pacientes idosos com câncer apresentam alterações funcionais e psicológicas que comprometem muitos domínios, como a funcionalidade e a qualidade de vida. Dessa forma, é essencial o planejamento de estratégias de cuidado eficazes em diferentes níveis de atenção para que eles possam manter um nível moderado de qualidade de vida.
Adversary System in Common Law Countries and Possibility for Implementation in Indonesian Court
Authors: Nirmala Puspita
Published: October 2020

This research tries to open the possibility of implementing an adversary system which is very closely related to the common law system in Indonesia, especially concerning the “The Rights of the Accused” in the criminal justice process. This research is carried out normatively by conducting legal studies through literature and legislation. The result of this research is that if the accused declared himself guilty of the crime he committed, this means that the accused will lose his right to be tried and processed fairly trial in the common law system. If a defendant is declared guilty, then the next process is the conviction without trial, in which case there are weaknesses in the rights of the accused that should have been carried out through a jury trial. Is it possible to apply in Indonesian courts? Is it not contrary to the norms contained in the Code of Criminal Procedure  (KUHAP), especially regarding the rights of suspects relating to human rights (HAM), such as equal treatment before the law; put forward the presumption of innocence; the right to compensation; right to legal assistance; the defendant's rights before the court; a free, fast and simple trial; and a court that is open to the public. However, if possible in Indonesia to switch to the adversary system, the judge's role can be limited only as a referee to allow the creation of a fair trial. The party in charge of deciding whether or not the defendant is right is the jury.

Transport potential of regions in Slovakia
Authors: Halás Marián
Published: October 2020

The communication infrastructure of the Central and Eastern European countries is one of the crucial factors of their economic development in the enlarging European Union. Their spatial differentiation is determined by many factors; the most important physical-geographic one is the geomorphologic structure of the area, and one of the principal human-geographic factors is the spatial differentiation and structure of settlement (as a generator or as a result of transport infrastructure). The submitted article deals with the transport issues in Slovakia and the potential for the development of the transport infrastructure in Slovak regions. The two main objectives of the contribution are as follows: The first partial aim is (1a) a basic analysis of the transport position of Slovakia in the (Central) European area and (1b) an analysis of the evolution and present state of communication infrastructure and the intensity of transport at its individual parts. The second main aim of the article is to point at some possibilities in the territory of the Slovakia, especially by application of gravitational model in Slovak towns (and towns of neighbouring border regions) and possibilities of development of the communication infrastructure.
Efeito da abreviação do jejum pré-operatório na glicemia e no bem-estar pós-operatório de pacientes submetidos à cirurgia cardiovascular: um estudo clínico randomizado, cego e placebo-controle

Introduction: Preoperative fasting can contribute to malnutrition and postoperative complications, since it causes an increase in the metabolic response to surgical trauma in patients, being hyperglycemia its main characteristic. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of abbreviation of preoperative fasting on blood glucose and postoperative well-being of patients undergoing cardiovascular surgery. Methods: Clinical, randomised, placebo-control and blind study enrolling 8 patients undergoing
cardiovascular surgery. Participants were randomly allocated to one of two groups: treatment (n=4) and control (n=4). The participants in the treatment group received water with tasteless maltodextrin (12.5 g/100 mL) and participants in the control group received only water, 8 hours before surgery (400 mL) and from 2 to 3 hours before surgery (200 mL). Before surgery, demographic and clinical data and fasting blood glucose were assessed. Blood glucose was measured during 24 hours after surgery and well-being of the participants was also investigated on the post-operative. Results: Participants in both groups had two or more risk factors for the development of cardiovascular diseases. Participants in the control group had higher postoperative blood glucose values from 6 hours after surgery and all of them needed insulin correction. Conversely, only one participant in the treatment group needed this correction. Considering the assessment of well-being, the participants in the treatment group showed more positive responses related to the absence of unwanted symptoms resulting from the surgical intervention. Conclusion: Shortened fasting resulted in better glycemic control and comfort for the participants. Implementation of this protocol is safe and had positive outcomes. Even so, further studies are required
to support this practice, as introduce an abbreviated fasting protocol is challenging in situations where the prolonged fasting is the established cultural practice.
