Histiocytoid Sweet syndrome: A rare variant of classic paraneoplastic dermatosis in relation to myelodysplastic syndrome - A case report
Authors: Dev Tanvi , Agarwal Shipra , Khandpur Sujay
Published: October 2020

Histiocytoid Sweet syndrome is a distinctive variant of Sweet syndrome, which is more frequently associated with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) than the latter. We describe a 59-year-old woman, diagnosed with MDS 4 months back, who developed sudden onset of rapidly progressing multiple painful erythematous papules and plaques on bilateral forearms, without any systemic complaints. The biopsy revealed interstitial and perivascular infiltrate of immature histiocytoid cells (positive for CD 68, myeloperoxidase, lysozyme, and CD15), along with papillary dermal edema. The eruption resolved with topical steroids in 3 weeks.

Authors: Joseph Rona , Anoop T , Unnikrishnan P
Published: October 2020

Ectopic intrathoracic thyroid is very rare and represents only about 1% of mediastinal tumors. Mediastinal mass in a patient with an otherwise early-stage breast cancer needs evaluation. If the mass is a metastatic lymph node, it changes the entire treatment plan and prognosis. Here, we describe a case of a 57-year-old female presenting with a lump in the right breast of 6 months. Tru-cut biopsy of the lump showed infiltrating duct carcinoma, Grade III, triple-negative. Staging workup showed a mediastinal mass in addition to the right breast mass and ipsilateral axillary lymphadenopathy. Biopsy from the mediastinal mass was suggestive of an intrathoracic thyroid.
QuitPuff: A simple method using lipid peroxidative changes in saliva to assess the risk of oral precancerous lesions and oral squamous cell carcinoma in chronic smokers
Authors: Shamsher Nikhiya , Prabhu Chaithanya
Published: October 2020

Introduction: Smoking, the leading cause of oral cancer in India, kills over 5 people every hour. As high mortality is due to late diagnosis, early detection is vital. Free radical-induced lipid peroxidation (LP) is known to promote multistep oral carcinogenesis. Free radicals generated by smoking damage polyunsaturated fatty acids releasing end product malondialdehyde (MDA). A simple, home-based test was devised to determine salivary MDA to assess early risk of oral precancer and cancer. It was hypothesized that heavier smokers would exhibit greater degree of salivary LP. Materials and Methods: A highly sensitive QuitPuff reagent was formulated which when heated with saliva, produces a color change, directly proportional to the amount of MDA. The MDA level was measured by matching the color change with a colorimetric LP index (LPI) chart. QuitPuff was tested on 500 subjects, validated using the gold standard, ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopy. Results: The mean LPI was consistently and significantly elevated (P < 0.001) in smokers with oral precancer and cancer (4.34) and smokers who smoked more than 20 (4.12), between 10 and 20 (3.43), and <10 cigarettes per day (2.43) as compared to nonsmokers (0.26). The mean LPIs of the test and validation methods correlated. Spearman's correlation indicated significant positive association between color changes and UV spectroscopy readings (r = 0.93). QuitPuff detected salivary MDA levels with 96% accuracy. Conclusion: Smokers exhibited greater degree of salivary LP as compared to nonsmokers; the heavier the smoker, greater was the degree of LP. QuitPuff has great potential as a point-of-care test for oral precancer and cancer.
Primary ependymoma of the ovary mimicking as yolk sac tumor: A rare case report
Authors: Patel Trupti S , Samanta Satarupa T , Jana Torsha T , Trivedi Priti P
Published: October 2020

Ependymoma is a glioma with the differentiation toward ependymal cells that usually arise in the central nervous system. Primary ovarian ependymoma is a rare gynecologic malignancy, of which very few cases have been published. Here, we present the case of a 21-year-old woman who presented with a pelvic mass. Ultrasonography revealed a solid cystic mass in the left adnexa. The patient underwent left oophorectomy followed by cytoreductive completion surgery. On histopathological examination, a possibility of primary glial and neuronal tumor of the ovary was made. The final diagnosis of primary ependymoma of the ovary was arrived upon due to strong positivity for glial fibrillary acidic protein and S100, along with positivity for pancytokeratin, epithelial membrane antigen, vimentin, estrogen receptor, and progesterone receptor on immunohistochemistry. Although a rare diagnosis, when presented with an ovarian mass in a young patient, this diagnosis must be borne in mind.

Authors: Panigrahi Ansuman , Sharma Dheeraj , Mohapatra Ipsa
Published: October 2020

Background: Tobacco use is an emerging public health problem among adolescents worldwide. The objectives of the study were to determine the prevalence and pattern of tobacco use among adolescents and assess the factors associated with its use in urban slums of Bhubaneswar, Odisha. Materials and Methods: A community-based cross-sectional study was carried out in 11 randomly selected urban slums of Bhubaneswar during the year 2017–2018 among 297 adolescents using a pretested semi-structured schedule. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 21.0; risk analysis was done using odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results: Ninety-one (30.6%) adolescents were current tobacco users; 40 (44%) were consuming smoking form and 67 (73.6%) smokeless form. Betel quid was the most predominant form of smokeless tobacco (35.8%) and the cigarette was the most common smoking form (55%) used. Only 16.5% of adolescents had tried to quit tobacco during the past year, whereas 65.9% showed a desire to quit tobacco in future. Multivariate analysis revealed that tobacco use was significantly associated with older age(adjusted odds ratio [aOR]: 5.5; 95% CI: 2.8–10.6), male gender (aOR: 5.9; 95% CI: 2.9–12.0), employment (aOR: 7.4; 95% CI: 3.6–15.4), illiterate mother (aOR: 3.3; 95% CI: 1.7–6.3), tobacco use by family member (aOR: 3.7; 95% CI: 2.0–6.9), tobacco use by peers (aOR: 6.5; 95% CI: 2.9–14.3), and easy accessibility (aOR: 4.1; 95% CI: 1.5–11.2). Conclusion: The prevalence of tobacco use was high among adolescents of slums in Bhubaneswar. Existing schemes for controlling the tobacco epidemic among slum adolescents could be strengthened by incorporating these determinants.

PurposeUse of cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitors improved survival outcome of hormone receptor (HR) positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients, including Asian population. However, Asian real-world data of palbociclib is limited. We analyzed the real-world clinical practice patterns and outcome in HR-positive, MBC Asian patients treated with palbociclib. Materials and MethodsBetween April 2017 to November 2019, 169 HR-positive, human epidermal growth factor-2–negative MBC patients treated with letrozole or fulvestrant plus palbocilib were enrolled from eight institutions. Survival outcome (progression-free survival [PFS]), treatment response and toxicity profiles were analyzed. ResultsMedian age of letrozole plus palbociclib (145 patients, 85.8%) and fulvestrant plus palbociclib (24 patients, 14.2%) was 58 and 53.5 years, with median follow-up duration of 14.63 months (range 0.2 to 33.9 months). Median PFS (mPFS) of letrozole plus palbociclib and fulvestrant plus palbociclib was 25.6 (95% confidence interval [CI], 19.1 to not reached) and 6.37 months (95% CI, 5.33 to not reached), comparable to previous phase 3 trials. In letrozole plus palbociclib arm, luminal A (hazard ratio, 2.86; 95% CI, 1.20 to 6.80; p=0.017) and patients with good performance (Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group 0-1 [hazard ratio, 3.68; 95% CI, 1.70 to 7.96]) showed better mPFS. In fulvestrant plus palbociclib group, chemotherapy naïve patients showed better mPFS (hazard ratio, 12.51, 95% CI, 1.59 to 99.17; p=0.017). The most common grade 3 or 4 adverse event was neutropenia (letrozole 86.3%, fulvestrant 88.3%).ConclusionTo our knowledge, this is the first real-world data of palbociclib reported in Asia. Palbociclib showed comparable benefit to previous phase 3 trials in Asian patients during daily clinical practice.

Adsorption-desorption of chlorpyrifos in soils and sediments from the Rufiji Delta, Tanzania
Authors: Mwevura Haji , Nkedi-Kizza Peter , Kishimba Michael , Kylin Henrik
Published: October 2020

Batch adsorption-desorption equilibrium techniques were used to investigate the adsorption capacity and influence of salinity on partitioning of the insecticide chlorpyrifos between water and soil or water and sediments from the Rufiji Delta. The data were fitted to different adsorption-desorption models and the hysteresis index was calculated using the ratio between the Freundlich exponents for desorption and adsorption, and secondly, the difference in area under the normalized adsorption and desorption isotherms using the maximum adsorbed and solution concentrations. The data showed non-linear adsorption and that chlorpyrifos was strongly adsorbed to soil and sediments from the Rufiji Delta. The linearized adsorption coefficient (KD) and Freundlich adsorption coefficient (Kf) correlated significantly with organic carbon content. Chlorpyrifos adsorption as well as hysteresis calculated by both methods decreased with salinity (i.e. the sediment adsorbs increasing amounts of chlorpyrifos with decreasing salinity). This indicates that settling of freshwater sediments is among the major removal pathways of the chemical from the water column, but increased turbulence during high tides may resuspend settled sediment simultaneously increasing salinity and re-dissolve chlorpyrifos. However, discharge of fresh water, particularly during heavy rains, increases the trapping efficiency of the sediments. The theoretical approach developed showed that the Langmuir model describes the desorption data better than the Freundlich model, and that a better index of hysteresis is one that considers areas under the adsorption and desorption isotherms, provided the desorption isotherm is described by the normalized Langmuir isotherm and the adsorption isotherm by the normalized Freundlich isotherm.
Size-distribution and length-weight relationship of a deep-water population of Holothuria scabra (Jaeger, 1833) in Zanzibar, Tanzania
Authors: Yussuf Yussuf S. , Yahya Saleh A.
Published: October 2020

A study was carried out on the size distribution, length-weight relationship and condition factor of a deep-water population of the commercially important tropical sea cucumber Holothuria scabra in Zanzibar, Tanzania. Samples were collected from fishers and supplementary information gathered. The deep water (15-20 m) population of H. scabra is dominated by large sized individuals that have already attained maturity. There was no significant difference in size between male and female individuals (p>0.05). The sex ratio in this population significantly differed from 1:1 in favour of male individuals (p=0.01). The results showed significant correlation between length and weight for male, female, indeterminate individuals, and pooled data, with r values of 0.681, 0.794, 0.821 and 0.680, respectively. Moreover, the b-value for male, female, indeterminate individuals and pooled data was 1.288, 1.439, 1.686 and 1.407 respectively, which revealed that individuals of deep-water H. scabra exhibit negative allometric growth. The mean condition factor (K) value when all data were pooled together was 4.213±0.106 indicating that individuals were in good condition and came from a healthy environment. This study fills a key information gap that is relevant to the management of the H. scabra fishery in the country.
Comparative analysis of the accessibility and connectivity of public transport in the city districts of Krakow
Authors: Bárta Martin
Published: October 2020

A properly functioning public transport is one of the most important components of urban mobility for the population. Due to spatial inhomogeneity and overall socio-economic differences within a city, there are often considerable disproportions in the quality of transport services within its districts. Also, the city of Krakow is no exception in this case. For a comparison of public transport accessibility in 18 Krakow districts, 7 major quantitative and 5 minor indicators were created. These indicators include the most important characteristics of transport services such as accessibility, frequency, connectivity of connections, and ratios of tram public transport subsystem. The resulting values give a fairly comprehensive picture of the quality of the transport services. Overall higher values for most indicators occur in the central districts of the city. However, due to the complexity of the observed characteristics, it is possible to discover significant differences in the structure of individual indicators. Peripheral districts reach higher amplitudes, which means that in some aspect they have even better transport services than the city center. Yet, at the same time, we also find opposite extremes here, highly below-average values for most other indicators. A detailed analysis of the results provides a unique perspective on the disparities among districts. It can also serve for specific identification of strengths and weaknesses of transport services and its possible optimization.
Prawa i obowiązki stron stosunku pracy w czasie pandemii COVID-19

Rights and obligations of parties to an employment relationship during the COVID-19 pandemic The article discusses the most important regulations regarding the rights and obligations of employers and employees during the COVID-19 pandemic, both for employees performing remote work and employees who, due to the nature of their work, must perform it at the workplace. In order to counteract COVID-19, the employer may instruct the employee to perform, for a fixed period, work specified in the employment contract, outside the place of its permanent performance (remote work). In the current situation, in principle, the employer may, whenever an employee performs remote work, order it for 180 days from the date of the Act’s entry into force. There appear a number of problems in the field of labour law when working remotely, including how to comply with OSH regulations, how to proceed in the event of an accident at work or control of working time. An employer may commission remote work to only part of the employees, e.g. those who have children. Yet, this should be justified by objective circumstances. The employer should take all available precautions, such as ordering remote work or even temporary closure of an enterprise, if his employees are infected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus in order to enable State Sanitary Inspection or physicians or himself to take action. During the epidemic, the employer also has the right to carry out preventive checks of employees’ temperature. There is no legal basis for employers to send their employees to quarantine themselves. The employer may also not allow an employee to work without a preliminary and control examination. The last part of the article deals with the so-called crisis agreements concluded with employee representatives.
Metatalk in Advanced Spanish L2 and Heritage Learners When Solving Lexical Problems: A Multiple-case Study
Authors: Tocaimaza-Hatch C. Cecilia
Published: October 2020

Metatalk (MT) emerges in interaction when learners, working through a linguistic problem, turn their attention to features of their language (Swain, 2000; Swain & Lapkin, 2002). One factor that influences how MT develops is learners’ language proficiency. This multiple-case study explored how high-proficiency Spanish L2 and heritage learners engaged in lexical MT during a text reconstruction activity. Key findings from the analysis of learners’ lexical language-related episodes (LLREs) and commentaries from a debriefing interview revealed that (a) learners targeted mostly word meaning with few exchanges on spelling and pronunciation, (b) LLRE frequencies were comparable among dyads and learner groups, (c) learners described inferencing processes toward solving LLREs as internal and often not verbalized, thus demonstrating a transition toward self-regulation, and (d) although capable of producing MT in Spanish, learners often gravitated toward English in their metalinguistic talk. MT was materialized as dyadic collaboration when learners sought an answer together; role-taking emerged as one partner took the expert role, at least momentarily, and provided an answer to the linguistic question posed by their partner.

Published: October 2020

La mashua o también conocida como añu o isaño o cubio (Tropaeolum tuberosum Ruiz & Pavón) cultivada en las zonas altoandinas de Sudamérica, es una planta rústica poco demandante de fertilizantes y resistente a nematodos y varias plagas. De las investigaciones realizadas este tubérculo tiene importante como superfood y en la nutracéutica, así como diversos usos industriales. A pesar de ello, es un cultivo subutilizado en los países y las mismas regiones donde se produce. En el Perú, la producción de mashua ha venido incrementándose en los últimos 5 años, con un 36% más de producción nacional anual en el año 2019 respecto a lo que se producía antes del año 2015. También se ha encontrado evidencia de un incremento en el número de investigaciones de tesis vinculadas a este tubérculo en las universidades peruanas, principalmente aquellas ubicadas en las regiones productoras.  Ante ello, considerando la potencialidad de la mashua, se hace necesario tomar una especial atención desde el punto de vista de las políticas públicas en el Perú para la promoción de este cultivo en las regiones altoandinas.

PERIODICITY SYSTEM IN TEXTS OF TECHNICAL EDUCATION IN THE AREA OF CIVIL CONSTRUCTION - BUILDINGS
Authors: Nonemacher Tânea Maria
Published: October 2020

The system of periodicity, from the discursive perspective (MARTIN, 1992a; 1992b; 1993; MARTIN; ROSE, 2007) has its origin in the Systemic-Functional Linguistics (SFL) with Halliday’s studies (1979/2002) and refers to the way information flows along a text from the complementarity between Theme and New. In this article, an excerpt of a text of the area of buildings is analyzed and there is an attempt to demonstrate the thematic realization patterns and the strategies used by the author to establish the method of development of the text (FRIES, 1981/1983; MARTIN, 1992b). It follows the hypothesis that the Theme in Portuguese could occur not only as the first element of a clause. The results show that, in the context of the study in question, the thematic organization patterns of the periodicity system also occur by agreement to the Process (MOYANO, 2016). These results aim to contribute to the discussions as well as to encourage new research on the thematic realization in Portuguese.

Published: October 2020

Esta pesquisa teve como objetivo investigar como a Educação Ambiental está presente nas propostas curriculares e na prática de uma Escola Família Agrícola no norte do estado do Espírito Santo. A metodologia adotada atribui à pesquisa um caráter qualitativo do tipo etnográfico utilizando-se de três procedimentos para a obtenção de dados: observação participante, análise de documentos e entrevista semiestruturada. Os documentos analisados foram Projeto Político Pedagógico, o Planejamento de Atividades Anual e o Plano de Ensino da Escola Família Agrícola. As entrevistas foram realizadas com 11 estudantes da 3ª e 4ª série do ensino médio/técnico-profissionalizante. Os resultados apontam que, dentro das propostas curriculares da Escola Família Agrícola, a Educação Ambiental se apresenta de forma indissociável das questões educacionais e cotidianas dos estudantes do campo. A temática ambiental é trabalhada dentro das diversas áreas de conhecimento escolar, disciplinas técnicas e em forma de projetos, feitas através de reflexões complexas sobre o contexto ambiental, social e político enfatizando sempre as consequências que a ação do homem gera sobre a terra no município, região e mundo. Deste modo, conclui-se que a Educação Ambiental encontra-se diluída nas propostas curriculares e na prática pedagógica da Escola Família Agrícola no norte do Espírito Santo.

A abordagem da temática indígena e da História da África nos livros didáticos: uma experiência na formação docente
Authors: Leite Ingrid Silva de Oliveira
Published: October 2020

Os livros didáticos são o meio mais utilizado pelos professores de História, mesmo com o uso crescente da internet. Desde 2003 e 2008 existe a obrigatoriedade do ensino da História da África e da temática indígena, mas tais assuntos ainda não são tão demonstrados e problematizados nos livros didáticos, embora já se encontrem modificações importantes. Nos cursos de licenciatura em História, a África e os nativos do Brasil são estudados em um ou dois semestres, o que acreditamos ser pouco tempo para professores em formação. Uma saída para tal limite, seria a prática de oficinas utilizando os livros didáticos para refletir sobre a abordagem da História da África, da diversidade da experiência do negro no Brasil e da temática indígena. Este artigo objetiva demonstrar experiências realizadas em oficinas com livros didáticos e elaboração de aulas em cursos de licenciatura em História no Rio de Janeiro e Minas Gerais.

The research aims to analyse the effects of family problems on women who work, analyzing the influence of women working on family harmony and analyzing the pattern of liability and rights in the family. This research is conducted using normative juridical methods. The approach used is sociological which focuses on change and social structure. From the data on the analysis of researchers showed that the influence of family problems in women who work is, 1). Feeling depressed 2). Exhausted, tired 3). Stress. While the influence of women working towards the harmony of family, among others, the occurrence of divorce, the neglect of the rights of husbands and children, as for the pattern of the rights and obligations in families in women who work among others (1). Meeting daily needs: preparing food needs such as eating, drinking, and cleaning the house. (2). Meet the needs of Bilogis and the need for effction or compassion. And the pattern of husband and wife relationship, especially in the aspect of the division of work and decision-making after the change of role in the family including: first, to the husband, (1). Difficult to divide time (2). Less role in paying attention to husbands. Second, to the child. (1). The neglect of the children at home, (2). Mothers are not always in the important moments, (3). Not all child needs are met. It can thus be concluded that the law of a wife making a living outside of the house is permissible, provided she does not neglect her duties as a mother. But rather when wives neglect their primary duties. Thus the view of Islam to the wife is not permissible or unclean because it will affect the integrity of the household in creating a family of Sakinah, Mawaddah, and Rahmah.
