Authors: Bartakke Sandip , Lukade Umesh , Sethuratnam Shrividya
Published: November 2020

Cytopenias are common among neonates in neonatal intensive care units
(NICU). Although, bone marrow aspirations (BMA) are often performed as
part of diagnostic work up but trephine marrow biopsies (BMB) have not
been reported from living neonates. BMB is indispensable to accurately
assess the cellularity and architecture. There is paucity of literature
regarding the technique of BMB in neonates. In this report, for the
first time, we describe trephine BMB from Posterior superior iliac crest
(PSIC) using 18 guage BMA needle in six living neonates admitted to NICU
where bone marrow biopsy findings helped in understanding the underlying
mechanism and diagnosis of cytopenias.

Published: November 2020

Background Explore the possible mechanism of anti-influenza virus, based
on the study of the active components-drug-target network,
Protein-Protein Interaction (PPI) network and molecular docking
verification, we explored the potential action mechanism of TCM in
Chinese protocol for diagnosis and treatment of influenza 2019. Methods
Screening the active components and potential targets of 12 drugs in the
scheme by using TCMSP database, and Obtaining the target of influenza by
GeneCard, Durgbank, OMIM, TTD and PharmGkb databases. Then, constructed
the “component-durg-target” network and PPI network were by
Cytoscape3.8.0 software. Morethan, analyzed and the biological function
and pathway, verified the molecular docking by AutoDock Vina software.
Results The 12 drugs in the recommended scheme (XBCQ) for severe
influenza contain 192 active components and involve 31 key antiviral
targets, which may play an antiviral role through biological processes
such as lipopolysaccharide, pathogen molecular reaction and regulate
signaling pathway via the IL-17, influenza A, TNF, Toll-like receptors.
Conclusion TCM play critical therapeutic roles through
“multi-components, multi-targets and multi-pathways” mechanisms in
influenza infection. The antiviral pharmacological mechanism of Xuanbai
Chengqi decoction, which was analyzed by network pharmacology and
molecular docking, provide a new idea for further exploring the
diagnosis and treatment of severe influenza.

Published: November 2020

Abstract: Rationale, aims, and objectives: Chinese patients with
advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD), especially rural patients
possibly occur self-referral behavior and then treatment decisions
followed. It is unclear the relationship between self-referral and
treatment decision-making. Thus, the aim of this study was to explore
the perceptions and views of self-referral and treatment decision making
among patients with advanced chronic kidney disease. Methods: We
conducted semi-structured interviews with 26 patients with advanced
kidney disease and 12 nephrologists. Interviews were conducted and
analyzed thematically until reaching thematic saturation. Results: We
identified three themes reflected: 1) self-referral decision making
(self-referral motive, barrier to self-referral, seeking for
self-referral information); 2) the views and experience of self-referral
care (facilitating shared decision making, imposing psychological
pressure, feeling about self-referral communication, challenge to
staff-patient relationship); 3) treatment decision making (decisional
awareness and roles, cost-benefit trade-off and redicision).
Conclusions: Our study identified that organizational and demographic
factors, self-referral motives worked together at the self-referral
decision-making and treatment decision-making when advanced CKD patients
facing with healthcare facilities and treatment options. Those findings
suggest stakeholders should accelerate the popularization of peritoneal
dialysis technology and establish the CKD screening and management
systems. For self-referral patients with advanced CKD, our results
suggest specialized dialysis transition care to improve quality of
communication and soothe patients’ negative emotion.
Generalized hyperbolic mean curvature flow in Minkowski space $R^{1,1}$
Authors: Wang Zenggui , Li Xiuzhan
Published: November 2020

This paper concerns the generalized hyperbolic mean curvature flow for
spacelike curves in Minkowski $R^{1,1}$. Base on the derived
quasilinear hyperbolic system, we investigate the formation of
singularities in the motion of these curves. In particular, under the
generalized hyperbolic mean curvature flow, we prove that the motion of
periodic spacelike curves with small variation on one period and small
initial velocity blows up in finite time. Some blowup results have been
obtained and the estimates on the life-span of the solutions are given.
O financiamento da educação no Mercosul: a realidade do Brasil e do Uruguai
Authors: Souza Kellcia Rezende , Da Silva Daniely Honorato , Mendes Vanessa Alcântara Cardoso
Published: November 2020

O trabalho analisa a proteção normativa do financiamento à educação básica no Brasil e Uruguai, países membros do Mercado Comum do Sul (Mercosul). Assim, foi realizada, mediante abordagem qualitativa, uma pesquisa bibliográfica e documental (Constituições e Legislações educacionais vigentes). A escolha pelos dois países se deve pela distinção nas suas formas de organização político-administrativas de Estado, o que permite identificar as similitudes e diferenças de um Estado Federal (Brasil) e um Estado Unitário (Uruguai). Evidenciamos que não há uma harmonização normativa dos dois países no tocante ao financiamento educacional. Constatamos, também, que só o Brasil assegura a vinculação de um percentual mínimo do orçamento em sua constituição. Por outro lado, na legislação uruguaia, a competência referente ao financiamento educacional está vinculada ao governo central. As reflexões suscitadas colocaram em evidência avanços e limites no âmbito normativo referente ao financiamento educacional dos países investigados, cuja realidade carece de desenvolvimento de pesquisas.
Heterogeneity of Cash Markets at Physical Delivery Points and the Hedging Effectiveness of Agricultural Commodity Futures in India – Lessons for Contract Optimization.
Authors: Mansabdar Sanjay , Yaganti Hussain C
Published: November 2020

Agricultural commodity futures in India are settled by physical delivery and the seller can choose the location of delivery from a list described in the contract specifications. Cash markets at these locations represent the deliverable basket for the futures contract and are the underlying assets for the delivery options granted to the seller by virtue of contract design.  These cash markets are generally heterogenous. This paper studies the impact of heterogeneity of the underlying cash markets in different locations on the hedging effectiveness of the associated futures contract. The hedging effectiveness of cottonseed oilcake and soybean futures is regressed against several variables that represent heterogeneity of the underlying cash markets using ridge regression. We find that in general, the greater the heterogeneity, the poorer the hedging effectiveness of the contract. This paper is unique in that it provides a framework for guidance for contract designers at exchanges and regulators who will find this research useful in optimizing delivery specifications for agricultural futures contracts.  This is especially important given the declining volumes in Indian agricultural commodity futures.

Evaluasi dan Implikasi Kebijakan Pemberantasan Kejahatan Perikanan di Indonesia 2014-2018
Authors: Karim Muhamad
Published: November 2020

Kejahatan perikanan telah berlangsung sejak tahun 1970-an di Indonesia. Studi ini bertujuan (i) menganalisis kebijakan pemberantasan kejahatan perikanan di Indonesia; (ii) menganalisis dampak kebijakan  pemberantasan kejahatan perikanan terhadap keberlanjutan sumber daya perikanan dan kesejahteraan nelayan, dan (iii) memberikan rumusan rekomendasi bagi pengelolaan sumber daya perikanan yang berkelanjutan dan mensejahterakan seluruh rakyat. Penelitian ini bersifat deskriptif-kualitatif dengan menggunakan data-data sekunder. Data-data tersebut diperoleh dari instansi terkait Badan Pusat Statistika, publikasi Kementerian Kelautan dan Perikanan Republik Indonesia, Bank Indonesia dan dokumen hasil penelitian relevan. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif analisis dari kebijakan publik. Hasilnya disajikan dalam bentuk tabel, diagram, histogram, dan persentase yang kemudian diinterpretasikan. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa kebijakan pemberantasan kejahatan perikanan di Indonesia selama kurun waktu 2014-2018 belum berjalan secara optimal karena implementasi pada tataran nasional masih menimbulkan resistensi seperti dalam kasus pelarangan cantrang. Kebijakan ini juga berdampak positif terhadap keberlanjutan sumber daya ikan di Indonesia dan kesejahteraan nelayan. Meskipun, kejahatan perikanan masih sering terjadi seperti penangkapan ikan oleh kapal asing ilegal. Pasca 2019, kebijakan ini harus tetap dilanjutkan agar melindungi sumber daya ikan dan menjamin kedaulatan Indonesia atas sumber daya lautnya. Hasil studi ini merekomendasikan bahwa penanganan kasus kejahatan perikanan tidak selamanya dengan mekanisme pengadilan pidana semata, melainkan bisa juga dapat dilakukan melalui meknaisme non pengadilan yaitu mekanisme keadilan restoratif (restorative justice).

Anti-SAE1 Antibodies and Dermatomyositis: A Case Series of Three Patients
Authors: Wilson Claire , Roman Brandon , Ashack Kurt , Aronson Iris K
Published: November 2020

To date, few patients with anti-SAE1 dermatomyositis (DM) have been described, and usually in large descriptive cohort studies including all DM subtypes. Thus, it is increasingly important to further describe this rare subtype to solidify cutaneous findings, associated symptoms, and potential therapeutic options. Herein, this case series describes three patients with anti-SAE1 DM with respect to their clinical and laboratory findings, and also their response to treatment. All three patients eventually presented with classic cutaneous manifestations of dermatomyositis, however, Case 2 presented initially with cutaneous manifestations not described in the literature. Furthermore, two patients presented with dysphagia, with Case 2 experiencing a life-threatening dysphagia not typically described in the literature. Two of three patients also presented with early signs of interstitial lung disease. Lastly, cutaneous disease was only responsive to immunosuppressants in one patient. Unfortunately, this observational case-series consisted of only three patients, limiting the generalizability of our results. However, this study provides further support of the recalcitrant nature of this DM subtype, and commonly affected extracutaneous systems including the gastrointestinal and pulmonary systems. Larger studies of this patient population are needed to further confirm our associated findings.
755-nm Alexandrite Laser for the Treatment of Non-Facial Superficial and Nodular Basal Cell Carcinoma
Authors: Shiu Valerie , Brown Margaret , Bambekova Pavela , Yeh Jenny , Brogan Jaqueline , Kowalewski Catherine
Published: November 2020

Background: There is emerging literature regarding laser therapy as a treatment for non-melanoma skin cancer, with reports of vascular selective lasers and ablative lasers showing promise in basal cell carcinoma (BCC).
Objectives: To assess the efficacy of the 755-nm laser in the treatment of non-facial BCC of the superficial and nodular subtypes. To provide patients with a non-surgical option for the treatment of BCC.
Methods: Nineteen veterans, each with at least one biopsy proven superficial or nodular BCC on the trunk or extremity, agreed to participate in our IRB-approved, prospective, non-randomized, open-label clinical trial. A total of 21 BCC were treated, after local anesthetization, using the 755-nm Alexandrite laser (Gentle-Lase, Candela Corporation) in a single session with a 4 mm margin. Treatment sites were re-biopsied approximately six weeks later.
Results: Twenty-one of 21 treated BCC demonstrated complete histologic tumor resolution at 6-week follow-up. At six weeks, all patients had a scar, and some patients had associated crusting, scaling or ulceration. The high energy and absence of dynamic cooling in our study likely resulted in additional thermal damage to the tumors. Healing times and scar appearance were comparable to electrodesiccation and curettage sites.
Limitations: Our study was limited by a small sample size, lack of a control group, and sampling of treatment sites with shave removal rather than complete excision.
Conclusion: The 755-nm laser has vessel-selective properties and a greater depth of penetration compared to vascular selective lasers. Our study results suggest that the 755-nm Alexandrite laser may be an effective treatment for superficial and nodular BCC on the trunk and extremities. Further investigation is warranted.

Authors: Elsharkawy Ahmed Abdelaziz , Elatrozy Hytham
Published: November 2020

Background:

Trapped fourth ventricle (TFV) usually develops as a complication of supratentorial ventricular CSF shunting, especially when hydrocephalus is caused by intraventricular hemorrhage and/or infection. This study aimed to assess the feasibility of endoscopic aqueduct stenting using a single refashioned shunt tube to treat cases presenting with both TFV and shunt malfunction.

Methods:

We retrospectively collected and analyzed data from patients presenting with TFV and supratentorial shunt malfunction who underwent endoscopic aqueduct stenting using a refashioned shunt tube. All cases were treated at our institution between January 2010 and July 2019. The surgical technique is described.

Results:

Eighteen patients were enrolled in our study. There were ten males and eight females. The mean age was 11.2 years (range = 1–33 years). Headache, nausea, and vomiting were the most common clinical presentations. The mean duration of follow-up was 22.1 months (range = 6–60 months). All cases showed clinical and radiological improvement after surgery.

Conclusion:

Endoscopic antegrade aqueductoplasty and stenting with the refashioned panventricular shunt catheter are an adequate treatment option for both TFV and supratentorial shunt malfuncion.
Entender el trabajo como clave de crecimiento personal

What work is, what means man works and why man works allow us to find some keys to understand the reality of the company as a human manifestation that is not only at the service of productivity and efficiency, but first and foremost at the service of man and therefore of his development and that of society. This communication will try to explain what the work is and what is understood by the company as a productive activity. And as a consequence of this, how work links us to the essence of the universe and of other people, leads us to give reason that man is faber, he is the only one who works (Sellés, 2006, 454) and finally he is faber because he is sapiens. Work is a purely human subject. Man –any man– improves or worsens working and, also, stops working. Thus Leonardo Polo, for example, states that "at work, man becomes ennobled or debased. Here again, the first of the subjective sense of work on its objective sense is followed. Virtue is a value superior to utility” (Polo, 2015, 216). And virtue, good and norm are the three pillars of ethics. Understand that person perfects the world with his work, that person improves himself through work, this means that he is better, more ethical; and that person is linked to other people ethically through his work is a crucial issue to understand what work means and the deep connection with person and ethics. "It is understood by work that human action through which man is perfected as man while perfecting physical reality" (Sellés, 2006, 455). Work, without denying its part of effort and fatigue, has a positive meaning because it is what makes man grow in humanity. And to work is to add to the world more perfection than he offers and to perfect himself as a man. If man is to give, add, this is because as a person overcomes. The same man is not immune to what he does but in his doing something happens to him inside. In this sense man is said to be a perfecting perfector (Polo, 1994, 14), that is, to the extent that he improves the world, he improves himself; and insofar as he improves himself, he can improve the world: the former is a prerequisite for the latter.

Published: November 2020

Revolution 4.0 is causing a substantial transformation on the forms of work. In order to face the new demands of the professional world, avoid massive unemployment and reduce social inequalities, it is necessary for the States to design and implement strategic responses. Digital education is an essential tool to prepare society for the jobs of future. 228 The current working paper presents the digital literacy public policies adopted by the governments of Argentina and Peru during the period between 2016 and 2019 to develop the competences and skills required nowadays in the compulsory education levels. A qualitative methodology based on a bibliographic research and interviews with public officials responsible of these initiatives in both countries as well as experts on digital inclusion was applied. This endeavor is part of a larger research project which aims to present a comparative map of digital education in Latin America. The comparative analysis of the plan “Learning Connected” (Argentina) and “The Education we want for Peru” (Peru), regarding the Latin American region, concluded that there had been fundamental advances in their educational systems, according to demands of the 21st century. However, in comparison with other more developed regions, this one seems to be lagging behind. This report favors the approach between the academic and political spheres; it critically describes the current scenario and points out the way to travel.
Rediseñando las Organizaciones del Futuro. El impacto de la transformación digital en el mundo del trabajo

Published: November 2020

We are witnessing how new technologies are radically changing the design of organizations, the way in which they produce and manage both their objectives and their strategies, and -above all- how digital transformation impacts the people who are part of it. Even today in our country, many organizations think that digitalizing is having a presence on social networks, a web page or venturing into cases of success in corporate social intranet. Others begin to invest a large part of their budget in training their teams and adapting them to the digital age. But given this current scenario, do we know exactly what the digital transformation of organizations means? It is necessary? Implying? Is there a roadmap to follow that leads to the success of this process? How are organizations that have been born 100% digital from their business conception to the way of producing services through the use of platforms? What role does the organizational culture play in this scenario? The challenge of the digital transformation of businesses and organizations, which is part of the paradigm of the industrial revolution 4.0, is happening here and now in all types of organizations, whether are they private, public or third sector. The challenge to take into account in this process is to identify the digital competences that each worker must face in order to accompany these changes and not be left out of it. In this sense, the present work seeks to analyze the main characteristics of the current technological advances that make up the digital transformation of organizations and how they must be accompanied by a digital culture and skills that allow their successful development. In order to approach this project, we will carry out an exploratory research, collecting data from the sector of new actors in the world of work such as employment platforms in its various areas (gastronomy, delivery, transportation, recreation, domestic service, etc) and an analysis of the main technological changes that impact on the digital transformation of organizations in Argentina.

ESP Optimization Goes Further: Operating Frequency Beyond 60 Hz
Authors: Muklas A.
Published: November 2020

Optimization in brown field developments is always challenging in terms of cost. One of it is XY Field, Rimau Block, South Sumatera with more than 70% of artificial lift is Electrical Submersible Pump (ESP). At ESP wells that are already running at maximum operating frequency of 60 Hz, some are still having problems to optimize their potential. The option to replace the pump with a higher rate is less of an option due to high cost. This leaves an opportunity to gain oil production by increasing frequency above 60 Hz. Upon discussion with the ESP Principal on the risks and possibilities, a trial was then planned for 3-wells. Candidates are selected from the list of ESP wells with the following criteria such as already operated at 60 Hz, still have sufficient fluid submergence, and based on simulated motor load at 70 Hz is still at safe motor load level. Frequency was increased gradually while continuously monitoring ESP Parameters (motor load, voltage and harmonic). It is also necessary to monitor the cable temperature as it is directly affected by the frequency changes. For each frequency increment, a well test is also performed to monitor the production changes. The trial was done on 3-wells (XY-364, XY-370 and XY-378), with the following promising results. XY-364 and XY-378 successfully reached the targeted 70Hz, while XY-370 stopped at 65Hz due to a cable temperature issue. Oil gain from this optimization was 48 BOPD with 1,043 BLPD and similar BS&W profile. ESP operation still normal until present day with all parameters at acceptable range. There were, however, challenges found during the trial. Cable temperature of XY-364 increased at junction box and found cable scun loosen. The problem was solved by replacing the cables. For XY-370, found temperature increment at moulded case circuit breaker during trial at 65 Hz. It was decided to hold at existing frequency. Unbalanced motor load at XY-364 and broken capacitor at XY-370 occurred at Harmonic Filter. The problem was solved by replacing the capacitor. The trial proves that we can operate ESP higher than base frequency (60 Hz) and resulted in decent oil gain. This opens an opportunity in ESP optimization above 60 Hz at an even larger scale.
HPHT Zonal Isolation and Triple Tubular Perforation: A Success Story of Re-Accessing Old Reservoir Without Recompletion with Rig
Authors: Satiawarman A.
Published: November 2020

The Natuna sea area is known to have many comprehensive geological profiles and is also known as a big contributor for petroleum exploration. The West Lobe field is one of the fields that is located in the offshore Natuna sea. This field has produced millions of cubic feet of gas since it was developed and currently being operated by Premier Oil Indonesia. Various stratigraphic frameworks in the West Lobe field make development in this area very challenging with reservoirs having different characteristics. H-sand is part of Lower Gabus formation which is the main producing lobes in West Lobe and has been very well developed. H-sand is also connected through out Anoa Field (West - Central - East Lobe). Lama formation located below Lower Gabus formation and was not well developped. Lama formation has different chararcteristics compared to H-sand. Lama formation consists mainly of fluvio-deltaic, fluvial and alluvial fan sandstones – H. Darman (2017). H-sand is fine to medium grade sands with plant debris typically form thick, blocky or fining upward units and usually massive in appearance – H. Darman (2017). WL-5X was a gas producer from Lama formation at the West Lobe area and currently watered out. WL-5X was used to produce from H-Sands from 2012 until 2017. Lama formation was considerred has more producing potential hence a deepening and recompletion to access the Lama formation was executed in July 2017 and isolated the H-Sands interval. With that recompletion, WL-5X was producing only from the Lama formation. Higher production result was gained from Lama formation but not sustaining for long, gas production declined drastically and water start coming out. This paper presents the efforts to re-access H-Sands and conduct proper isolating of the Lama formation to restrore the production of WL-5X in the West Lobe area. This paper consist of the procedures and workflow which include identification and evaluation of the reservoir potential as well as the potential risk identification and measures required. This program also analyzes the field economics, which is very crucial in oil fields in the current oil industry situation. This work generated short term and long term opportunities that increases 4 MMscfd of gas production and added reserves of 4 Bcf. This means providing millions of dollars additional revenue and savings.

Published: November 2020

Public Distribution System (PDS), an Indian food security system, is a means for ensuring food security to the poor and the needy. Essential commodities like rice, flour, kerosene etc., are supplied to the people under the PDS at subsidised prices. It was started with the objective to maintain price stability of essential commodities, providing access to food and other essential items at affordable prices to the population. It is important for the functioning of the PDS to be ethical in order to meet the true objectives with which this system was actually started. It has been seen that there have been a number of malpractices in the functioning of the system. This paper looks into the ethical aspects of the functioning of PDS. In doing so, customers’ point of view in respect of the overall system has been taken. And an effort has been made to bring to light any malpractice that may be occurring in the system. This paper is a descriptive one which takes a sample of 46 respondents that have been selected on the basis of the number of fair price shops in the JamirahGaon Panchayat SamabaySamiti of Dibrugarh district of Assam.

Published: November 2020

The very purpose of this paper is to analyse the relationship between gold price and Rupee – Dollar exchange rate in India. The study utilises the annual data of exchange Rate (ER) and Gold Price (GP) from 1970 to 2015 to determine the relationship. Different econometric tools like Unit root test, Johansen co integration test, Vector error correction model, Granger causality test are used for detecting the long run relation, if any between the mentioned variables. The result shows that there exists a long run cointegrating relation between the variables. That is we can stabilise the Gold Price movement by controlling the exchange rate fluctuations. Likewise it also shows that Exchange rate doesn’t Granger cause to Gold price and vice versa. It means that the time series data of one vasriable cannot be used to predict another.

Published: November 2020

Banana (Musaceaea) is one of the highest production fruits in Indonesia, which amounted to 7,162,685 tons in 2017. Banana peel waste produced can reach 40% of the total production of fresh bananas. Kepok banana peel contains a lot of nutrients and pectin. Pectin levels in banana peel ranged from 1.92% to 3.25% of dry weight. This study aims to characterize pectin from kepok banana peel (Musa balbisiana) extracted using nitric acid, citric acid, and HCl and screening potential of pectin bioactivity based on LC50 values. The highest pectin yield was obtained from extraction using pH 4 citrate buffer which was 3.68 ± 1.23%. In general, the characteristics of the best pectin from kepok banana peel are pectin extracted with HNO3 pH 4 with methoxyl degree 3.74 ± 0.34%, galacturonate content 87.64 ± 8.36%, and esterification degree 24.24 ± 0.098%. Based on the LC50 value the pectin extraction results can be classified into two, namely commercial pectin and pectin HCl pH 1.5 which is low bioactivity (LC50 > 100 ppm), and pH 4 HNO3 pectin and pH 4 citrate buffer pectin which has high bioactivity (LC50 ≤ 30 ppm).

The 80-year development of Vietnam mathematical research: Preliminary insights from the SciMath database on mathematicians, their works and their networks
Authors: AISDL
Published: November 2020

Starting with the first international publication of Le Van Thiem (Lê Văn Thiêm) in 1947, modern mathematics in Vietnam is a longstanding research field. However, what is known about its development usually comes from discrete essays such as anecdotes or interviews of renowned mathematicians. We introduce SciMath—a database on publications of Vietnamese mathematicians. To ensure this database covers as many publications as possible, data entries are manually collected from scientists’ publication records, journals’ websites, universities, and research institutions. Collected data went through various verification steps to ensure data quality and minimize errors. At the time of this report, the database covered 8372 publications, profiles of 1566 Vietnamese, and 1492 foreign authors since 1947. We found a growing capability in mathematics research in Vietnam in various aspects: scientific output, publications on influential journals, or collaboration. The database and preliminary results were presented to the Scientific Council of Vietnam Institute for Advanced Study in Mathematics (VIASM) on November 13th, 2020.
