Authors: Mohammed Murtadha Ibrahim , AL_ Fadhli Ali Gedis Shareef
Published: July 2022

Background: Hodgkin disease is characterized by progressive enlargement of lymph nodes. It is considered unicentric in origin and has predictable pattern of spread by extension to contiguous nodes. Material and Methods: Over a 6-year period, from January 1st 2003 to December 31st 2009 a retrospective study was done for 86 children with Hodgkin’s lymphoma who were admitted to the pediatric oncology unit in Children Welfare Teaching Hospital, The follow up period extended to February 10th 2011. Results: The patients were referred to from 11 governorates, 42 patients (48.8%) were from Baghdad. Highest rate of referral occurred during 2009 compared to previous years of the study. There were 63 (73.3%) males and 23(47.8%) females; male to female ratio was 2.7:1. Fifty eight patients (67.4%) presented with age group between 6-10 years, with a median age of 8 years and mean age of 7.8 years, ranged 2 years to 12.4 years. Cervical lymph node enlargement was found in 64 (74.4%) patients, followed by supraclavicular lymph node enlargement in 8 (9.3%) patients. B symptoms (weight loss, fever, and night sweating), were found in 37/80 patients (43%) The mean duration of illness was 7.5 months. Stage III was seen in 42 (48.8%) patients, followed by stage II in 33 (39.5%) patients, stage I in 10 (11.6%) patients and nil for stage IV. The commonest histopathological finding was Mixed cellularity in 71(82.6%) patients, then lymphocyte predominant in 12 (14%) patients, nodular sclerosis in 2 (2.3%) patients, and lymphocyte depleted in 1 (1.2%) patients. Seven patients were excluded from treatment outcome (4 treated with Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma protocol, 1 died before treatment, 1 refused treatment by the family, and 1 treated in another institute. From 79 patients who received chemotherapy; fifty six (70.9%) patients finished treatment and remained free of disease till time of last follow up, 1 (1.3%) patient died during treatment, 12 (15.2%) patients relapsed after finishing treatment, 4 (5%) patients abandoned treatment and 6 (7.6%) patients got progressive disease during treatment. At median follow up period of 36 months, ranged from 1 month – 82 months; Event free survival is 70.9%.Sevently-two (89.9%) patients were alive till time of last follow up, 2 (2.5%) died, and 5 (6.3%) lost follow up. Conclusions: Males were more commonly affected than females and age group between 6-10 years was the most common. Stage III and mixed cellularity histopathological subtype were most common. Event free and overall survival is improving, yet it is below the standard reported in other countries.

Medical Problems of Internationally Adopted Children from Nepal
Authors: Oliván-Gonzalvo Gonzalo
Published: July 2022

Background: Spain is one of the main countries in the world in international adoption, and Nepali children account for 0.8% of all adoptees. According to United Nations, Nepal is a poorly developed country. Due to the quality of medical care that Nepali children receive in orphanages, it has been reported that the diagnoses described in the pre-adoptive medical reports do not offer an absolute guarantee of accuracy, and sometimes these reports are not provided to adoptive families. The objective of this study was to describe epidemiological characteristics, pre-adoptive history, and medical problems observed in the post-adoption evaluation in a cohort of children adopted from Nepal. Material and Methods: Retrospective descriptive study on 11 Nepali adopted children from 2005 to 2011, examined according to a standardized protocol. Variables were collected from pre-adoption medical reports, interviews with the family, and post-adoption evaluation records. Results: Epidemiological characteristics and pre-adoptive history: females, 63.6%; all were abandoned and adopted from orphanages; mean age at institutionalization was 32 months, and at adoption was 55 months. 72.7% had a pre-adoptive medical report, and all were diagnosed as "healthy". 54.5% had a vaccination certificate. Medical problems most frequent diagnosed in post-adoption evaluation were iron deficiency anemia (72.7%), xerosis cutis (54.4%), neurodevelopmental delay (45.5%), underweight and stunting (36.4%), and acute bronchitis (36.4%). Only one child had a serious problem (cerebral palsy). The BCG vaccination scar was present in 81.8%. 72.7% showed vaccination immunity against hepatitis B virus. Conclusion: The pre-adoption medical information for the Nepali children was unreliable, and all showed more than one medical problem in the post-adoption evaluation. Adoptive families should seek pre-travel specialized medical advice regarding the medical reports and health of the child to be adopted, the updating of routine immunizations, and the destination-specific health problems.

Published: July 2022

Background: Now a day, type-2 diabetes mellitus and hypertension are considered to be the first and second leading causes of all deaths and morbidities respectively. Increasing age, trend of obesity and worsening renal function increasing the prevalence of hypertension in people with type-2 diabetes mellitus. We have very few research-based information regarding these issues. Aim of the study: The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of hypertension in patients with type-2 diabetes mellitus. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study which was conducted in the Department of Medicine and Endocrinology of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, Dhaka Bangladesh from January to December 2021. In total 142 patients with type-2 diabetes mellitus attended to the mentioned hospital with proper documents were finalized as the study people. Besides data regarding type 2 diabetes mellitus, data of blood pressure and macro-vascular as well as micro-vascular complications were collected. A predesigned questioner was applied to collect patient data. All data were processed, analyzed and disseminated by MS Office and SPSS version 20. Results: In this study, among total participants in analyzing the prevalence of hypertension we observed out of 142 patients with T2DM only 45 were with hypertension which was 32%. In analyzing the stages of hypertension among total participants we found, 23.39% were with normal and 35.92% pre-hypertension (In total 68.31%). On the other hand, among 32% hypertensive participants, 19.72% (n=28) were with stage I HTN whereas 11.97% (n=17) were with stage II HTN. Conclusion: In this study, the prevalence of hypertension among type 2 diabetes patients was found some higher than that in normal. But if we consider the number of pre-hypertensive patients as a potential concern, then it is alarming. The findings of this study may be helpful in the treatment arena of diabetes and in similar further studies.
Pneumothorax in a Patient Hospitalized for COVID-19, A Case Report and Literature Review
Authors: Ziani Hicham , Ouahman Khalid , Ettaj Ayoub , Tachinante Rajae , Azzouzi Abderahim
Published: July 2022

SARS-CoV-2 was first identified at the end of 2019, in the Wuhan region (China), subsequently spreading worldwide with a major impact on health and economic system. A pneumothorax is a rare complication, affecting between 1–2% of SARS-CoV-2 cases. Pneumomediastinum is even rarer. Pneumothorax in the context of SARS-CoV-2 infection mainly occurs in patients with a severe form of the infection and requiring mechanical ventilation. This type of ventilation makes it possible to impose high positive expiratory pressures which can be complicated by pneumothorax when patients present with a lack of compliance secondary to fibrosis. Nevertheless, cases under conventional ventilation including without oxygen therapy are possible, suggesting that SARS-CoV-2 infection could be an independent risk factor for pneumothorax. Therefore, any worsening of the respiratory picture should evoke a pneumothorax. The management of pneumothorax secondary to SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia is usual. Placement of a chest drain could increase the risk of aerosol dissemination. We report the case of a pneumothorax occurring in a non-smoking patient hospitalized in intensive care for treatment of a serious SARS COV 2.

Gender and Development: Push and Pull Migration, Transnational Experience and Well-being of Filipina Overseas Migrant Returnees
Authors: Domingo Peachy G.
Published: July 2022

The global movement of people which coincided with the globalization of the market economy resulted into the feminization of overseas migrate, on given the higher demands for female migrant workers from the low-income developing countries such as the Philippines. This has changed the landscape of overseas migration in the country since the 1970s where the bulk of overseas migrant workers were males as triggered by the oil boom in the Middle East (Ducanes, 2015). This paper examines the social dimension of transnational migration as experienced by Filipina overseas migrant returnees by understanding the motivations for temporary overseas migration, the factors associated with return migration, their narratives of transnational migration and their self-assessment of the impact of migration on their well-being. Qualitative interviews were conducted among seven (7) Filipina migrant returnees from Nueva Ecija. Results revealed the interplay of gender, migration and family in relation to push and pull migration. Likewise, the transnational experiences of these migrant returnees demonstrate the resiliency and agency of women in the context of development and transnational migration.

Published: July 2022

This study focused on newspaper political campaign advertisements of select candidates for the 2019 general elections in Nigeria with the aim of analysing the semiotic resources in the newspaper political campaign advertisements of the select candidates. The specific objectives were to: determine how personality profiling served as semiotic resource in the 2019 elections campaign advertisements of the APC candidate of Lagos State, Nigeria as well as examine the use of color as a semiotic resource in the 2019 elections campaign advertisements of the APC gubernatorial candidates of Lagos and Abia States, Nigeria among others. The Social Semiotic Theory was adopted as the theoretical framework for the study. Data for this study were drawn from newspaper advertisements in three national dailies: The Punch, Daily Sun and The Vanguard newspapers. The newspapers were published between December 2018 and February 2019. Three (3) advertisements were purposively selected for this study owing to the several semiotic resources in them. The data were analyzed using the Discourse Analysis approach. The analysis revealed personality profiling of the APC gubernatorial candidate of Lagos State based on his educational qualification, experience and popularity. It also showed that color, image placement, attire and handshakes were also semiotic resources found in the newspaper political campaign advertisements of the select candidates in the 2019 general elections in Nigeria. Green and red were identified to be instrumental in communicating growth, light and love. Based on the findings, it was recommended that further study be carried out to uncover the communicative elements in political campaign advertisements in Nigeria newspapers
Management Techniques for Utility Tree Maintenance
Authors: Johnstone Richard
Published: July 2022

Maintenance of trees growing near electric distribution facilities is one of the highest annual maintenance expenses experienced by utilities. It is also usually the first area to receive budget reductions during lean years. Most utility foresters would say that funds are simply inadequate to properly maintain facilities for service reliability. However, present funds can be stretched if proper management methods are instituted, such as proper scheduling of crews, trimming trees by the lateral method, problem tree removal and/or replacement, and the use of growth regulators.

Published: July 2022

Bleeding or fluxing from injection wounds in elm is common, but the development of large bark cracks associated with such wounds has been unreported. In Maine, data were recorded on cracks in 148 elms {Ulmus americana) including vertical extent of crack from wounds, depth and configuration of cracks and electrical resistance of wood from trees with and without cracks. Cracks developed more frequently from stem wounds than from root flare wounds, extended upward to existing wounds or branch stubs and were widest at midpoints. Cracks developed more frequently from stem wounds than from root flare wounds, extended upward to existing wounds or branch stubs and were widest at midpoints. Cracks were limited to the separation of phloem and bark from xylem; and the exposed xylem was discolored along tangential and radial lines. Successive wounding upward on elm stems enhanced the formation of bark cracks.
Growth Habits of Five Cultivars of Pyrus Calleryana
Authors: Haserodt Heidi , Sydnor Davis
Published: July 2022

Callery pears are upright trees with 3 bad crotch angles and 36 branches in the first 5 feet of the crown. High branch density and narrow crotch angels make this plant very prone to storm damage. The cultivar 'Aristocrat' has fewer crotches and a lower branch density, which suggests that this plant may have fewer problems as the plant matures in the landscape. Graphic representations for 5 cultivars are presented and are drawn to scale to allow direct comparison between cultivars for height, width, and habit.

Authors: Smith Larry D.
Published: July 2022

Little is known about the influence of N, P, and K on the growth and movement ofVerticilliumin the vascular systems of woody plants. Nutrient-depletedAcer saccharumtrees were fertilized with six treatment preparations containing varying concentrations of N, P, and K. Following the response of thetrees to the fertilization, the trees were inoculated with Verticillium dahliae. Growth response of the trees to fertilization and the extent of colonization of the trees by the pathogen were determined. Growth of the trees was correlated to the concentration of nitrogen in the fertilizer and was described by the regression equation Y = 76.71 + 1.16X (r = .306). Phosphorus was not correlated to new growth of the trees. The effect of potassium was negatively correlated to growth and was described by the regression equation Y = 129.98 - 2.25X (r = -.456). The concentration of potassium was significantly correlated to the colonization of inoculated trees with the relationship described by the regression equation Y = 100.7 - 2.141X (r = -.579). Nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations were not correlated to pathogen colonization of inoculated trees.

National Vision Movement in Giresun from the 1980 Coup to the Post-Modern Coup Process of February 28 and the Aftermath: The Welfare Party
Authors: YILMAZ Ali
Published: July 2022

Necmettin Erbakan, supported in Turkey by those who considered themselves as more conservative and religious, had the opportunity to serve the people of Turkey in the capacity of Deputy Prime Minister before 1980. Erbakan's new discourse had won him the favor of the public; however, in the wake of the 1980 military coup, his party was closed down and he, along with most of his close colleagues, was banned from politics. After his party, which was a party with a cause rather than an ordinary one, was closed down, he tried to keep his sympathizers united and active by developing various arguments in order to preserve his electorate in the newly developing conditions. In conjunction with the transition from martial law to democracy, the National Vision Movement continued its course in the political arena with the Welfare Party. Necmettin Erbakan cultivated a new discourse in politics with the motto of "Fair Order" by successfully analyzing the economic developments in the world after 1980. His promise to make Turkey a strong and prominent country, his ideals of Islamic unity, his discourse of nationalism, anti-imperialism and anti-Zionism were accepted by the public. Additionally, his more comprehensive and Pan-Islamist stance compared to the religious jamaats and sects, and the fact that he undertook to be the voice of the people who suffered in the slums following rural-to-urban migration, strengthened the movement. The Motherland Party, founded by Turgut Ozal, who had been the National Salvation Party's Izmir candidate for the parliament before 1980, faced some difficulties while coming into power after 1980, following the military administration. Erbakan surpassed those difficulties, acquired a position in the government as the prime minister of the coalition in 1996 and served the nation. This study explores the establishment and structuring of the Welfare Party, a continuation of the National Vision Movement, in Giresun, as well as the process of its coming to power and later being removed from it. The first elections the Welfare Party took part in were the local elections of 1984, and although the votes it received were below the country average that year, the party increased its vote rates in all subsequent elections and received more votes than the Turkey average in Giresun. The reasons behind this success are that women, who had not been active in politics before 1980, began to participate more, the media was used more effectively, and Giresun was not affected by the conflict between religious sects and politics. This study will examine the efforts of the National Youth Foundation, established as the youth organization of the movement, and other non-governmental organizations during and after the February 28, 1997 post-modern coup process in the context of Giresun.
A Role of Foreign Financing in Indian Capital Market
Authors: Dr. Kajal Vadhrya
Published: July 2022

Unprecedented globalizations have witnessed double digit economic growth resulting in fierce competition and accelerated pace of innovation. As a result inflow of Foreign Direct investments has become a striking measure of economic development in both developed and developing countries. FDI and FII thus have become instruments of international economic integration and stimulation. Fast growing economies like Singapore, China, and Korea etc have registered incredible growth at onset of FDI. Though US captures most of the FDI inflows, developing countries still account for significant growth of FDI and rise in FII. FDI not only gives access to foreign capital but also provides domestic countries with cutting edge technology, desired skill sets, tools of innovation and other complementary skills. The policies drafted to stimulate the flow of foreign capital in to India provided much needed impetus for India to emerge as an attractive destination for foreign investors. External factors such as global economic cues, FDI & FII, Exchange rate and Internal factors such as demand and supply, market cap, EPS generally drive and dictates the Indian stock market. The current paper makes an attempt to study the relationship and impact of FDI & FII on Indian stock market using statistical measures correlation coefficient and multi regression. Sensex and Nifty were considered as the representative of stock market as they are the most popular Indian stock market indices. Based on 13 years data starting from 2001 to 2013, it was found that the flow of FDI & FII was moving in tandem with Sensex and Nifty. The study concludes that Flow of FDIs and FIIs in India determines the trend of Indian stock market

India has a high population rate and so is the number of automobiles. With the increase in the automobiles comes the increase in their theft and the present systems lack a few parameters which isn’t being helpful in dealing with this important concern of the vehicle owner. In this time of taking off vehicle, vehicle security has turned into a question of Prime significance, especially in urban cities, where these incidents take place each and every day. Agents owe this expansion in burglaries to the lack of appropriate parking spots in neighborhood and also absence of accessibility of refined security gadgets. Advancement in technology has been proven to be effective in managing vehicle thefts. There is a need to reduce these burglaries/thefts using the required means for vehicle security. Therefore, anti-theft systems play a vital role in reduction of vehicle thefts. Implementation of biometric anti-theft security system has been operational. In this article, there are a few methods of anti-theft vehicle security systems discussed briefly

Finite field arithmetic is the most important component in applications like cryptography, computer algebra and error correcting codes. Versatility is an important property the hardware industry lacks and trying to establish as much as possible. To survive in this booming technological word, the new designs should be of an adjustable one, which processes the versatile property. In this we have proposed an efficient VLSI design for versatile bit-serial multiplier in finite fields GF (2m). The versatile multiplier designed here modifications done by reducing the unwanted switching activity removed by clock gating scheme. Our design provides a solution to the power reduction. The introduced multiplier operates over a variety of binary fields up to an order of 2m. The value of m can vary up to 264 bits. Multiplier is designed using Verilog HDL.
O papel dos adultos e a participação de todas as crianças em contextos de educação infantil
Authors: Falco Mariane
Published: July 2022

Este artigo apresenta reflexões sobre o papel dos adultos nos contextos de educação infantil, para que seja garantida a participação de todas as crianças, considerando a diversidade de modos que estas manifestam seus interesses por interações e brincadeiras. Traz como recorte a educação de crianças com deficiências e apresenta um estudo de caso para ilustrar a realização de propostas, mediações e relações das crianças entre pares. A partir da abordagem qualitativa de pesquisa e da organização do tempo instituído no centro educacional, a discussão foi subdividida em dois eixos: o acolhimento das crianças em situações de atenção pessoal e a mediação em situações de aprendizagem em pequenos agrupamentos. O texto relaciona a construção de contextos mais inclusivos à qualidade do serviço ofertado na infância e permeia as concepções de criança, deficiência e educação infantil.
Papéis dos profissionais de apoio escolar a educação infantil em um município do Pará
Authors: Vasconcelos da Costa Juliane Dayrle , Vilaronga Carla Ariela Rios
Published: July 2022

A presente pesquisa, teve como objetivo identificar os papéis atribuídos e desempenhados pelos profissionais de apoio escolar em um município do estado do Pará, em instituições de educação infantil. A abordagem foi qualitativa, do tipo descritiva e com delineamento estudo de caso, com 11 participantes, destes: coordenadora da educação especial e 10 profissionais de apoio escolar: seis profissionais de apoio escolar - mediadores e quatro profissionais de apoio escolar - cuidadores. Foram realizadas entrevistas individuais e com grupos focais. Constatou-se que os dois cargos de profissionais de apoio escolar estão justificados em normativa municipal, possuem atuação nos cuidados básicos: alimentação, higiene e locomoção, mas também adentram outros papéis, relacionados às modificações no ensino, elaboração de materiais, relatórios, dentre outros. Evidenciou-se também ao longo do estudo poucas interlocuções da atuação desses profissionais com a educação infantil, mesmo sendo o nível de atuação dos mesmos, com isso reflete-se que as crianças da referida etapa educativa possuem características singulares que precisam ser consideradas na atuação.
inclusão como princípio inegociável: contribuições à educação infantil
Authors: Piccolo Gustavo Martins
Published: July 2022

O presente ensaio erige-se a partir das contribuições expressas pela Psicologia Histórico-Cultural e tem por objetivo demarcar os avanços materializados pelos supostos da inclusão nas esferas educacionais. Critica o Decreto Presidencial n. 10.502, de 30 de setembro de 2020, que institui a nova Política Nacional de Educação Especial em razão de seu parco e estreito entendimento de inclusão que acaba por levar o campo educacional a uma armadilha reacionária. Ademais, destaca o surgimento histórico do conceito de infância e o protagonismo da Educação institucionalizada nas sociedades contemporâneas. Por fim, assevera a necessidade do pensar em Políticas Públicas Educacionais que partam da Educação Infantil como marco constitutivo das relações de aprendizagem, que antecedem e potencializam o desenvolvimento humano para outros patamares, em especial, das crianças com deficiência.
Infância e deficiência: notas sobre um não-lugar na produção acadêmica
Authors: Silva Shirley , Silva Cleber Nelsonde Oliveira
Published: July 2022

O presente artigo apresenta uma análise da produção acadêmica acerca da intersecção entre educação infantil, crianças pequenas com deficiências e políticas educacionais. Por meio de revisão bibliográfica tomou-se como base, para o levantamento bibliográfico, pesquisas de pós-graduação stricto sensu, artigos publicados em periódicos da área da educação e trabalhos de pesquisa apresentados em associação científica da área, no período de 2000 a 2020. Da análise empreendida, constatou-se um número reduzido de trabalhos que se debruçaram sobre essa intersecção, estando a produção praticamente, em sua totalidade, localizada no campo da educação especial. Desse processo deriva-se a afirmação de que as crianças pequenas com deficiência ocupam um não-lugar na produção acadêmica, situando a discussão de modo apartada e alheia aos debates mais ampliados sobre o direito à educação.
Estudos com/sobre bebês com deficiências na educação infantil: uma reflexão sobre as produções acadêmicas (2008-2021)
Authors: De Araujo Luciana Aparecida , Anjos Cleriston Izidro dos , Giroto Claudia Regina Mosca
Published: July 2022

Este artigo objetivou analisar o estado da produção de estudos e pesquisas com/sobre bebês com deficiências na Educação Infantil, a partir de revisão bibliográfica realizada junto à base de dados da Oasisbr (2008-2021), tendo a Política Nacional de Educação Especial, na Perspectiva da Educação Inclusiva (PNEEPEI), como recorte temporal. Partiu-se do seguinte questionamento: o que indicam os estudos e pesquisas sobre bebês com deficiências na Educação Infantil? Os resultados foram analisados de forma descritiva e interpretativa, a partir dos eixos: temas de interesse; modalidades de pesquisa e instrumentos de coleta, que indicaram tanto a escassez quanto a necessidade de ampliação de trabalhos que favoreçam a inclusão na Educação Infantil e de políticas públicas que garantam o atendimento educacional especializado de bebês com deficiências. Conclui-se que ainda existe expressiva lacuna quando se trata de pesquisas voltadas para a inclusão na Educação Infantil – particularmente de bebês com deficiências – sendo este um desafio do campo a ser enfrentado, tendo em vista o fato de que as pesquisas podem contribuir com possíveis caminhos para a construção de políticas públicas integradas de atendimento aos bebês com deficiências.
Brincar com as mãos: narrativas do brincar simbólico de crianças surdas
Authors: Fochi Paulo Sergio , Dos Santos Ferreira Maurício , Maidana Alflen Bianca
Published: July 2022

O presente trabalho ocupou-se em investigar sobre o brincar simbólico das crianças surdas. A pesquisa está apoiada pelos estudos de Vygotsky (1989) e entende a surdez a partir de suas diferenças linguísticas e culturais (WITCHS, 2019; LOPES, 2013). O material empírico desta pesquisa é fruto de observações de sessões do brincar simbólico, no qual participam crianças surdas de 7 a 13 anos de idade. A partir disso, desdobram-se três categorias de análise: objetos, encontros e reinvenções, na qual se analisa a relação das crianças com os objetos e brinquedos; biculturalidade, presenças e ausências, na qual se olha para a brincadeira das crianças, identificando as marcas da cultura surda e da cultura ouvinte nesse movimento bicultural; e anúncios e narrativas, em que é analisada a relação da linguagem e das narrativas presentes no jogo simbólico. Conclui-se que a linguagem é fundamental para a experiência lúdica, não somente a linguagem no que se refere à “palavra”, mas a linguagem intrínseca nas ações.
Ação pedagógica inclusiva na educação infantil: o indiciarismo como princípio
Authors: De Souza Lima André Luís , Vasques Carla Karoppi , Pandini-Simiano Luciane
Published: July 2022

Ante a presença de crianças que sinalizam algum tipo de impasse na aprendizagem, deficiência ou autismo, a educação infantil é convocada a reinventar suas formas de fazer. O recorte apresentado, fragmento de uma cena compartilha o trabalho de uma professora com um menino identificado como autista. O paradigma indiciário propõe a observação de detalhes e acontecimentos pouco evidentes no cotidiano de creches e pré-escolas, mas constitutivos da possibilidade de reconhecer as múltiplas formas de habitar a instituição educativa e fazer-se criança.

Published: July 2022

Date Presented 04/02/2022

OT interventions for individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often emphasize areas of functioning such as attention, sensory processing, and social responsiveness. It is essential to understand the relationships between these variables to develop best-fit interventions. This study demonstrates that sensory processing plays a mediating role in the relationship between attention and social responsiveness with young adults with and without autism.
