The SPIRIT AND LAMENT
Authors: Pranoto Minggus Minarto
Published: February 2022

Abstract: This article aims to explain about lament from the perspective of psychology and pneumatology. Psychology helps to explain psychic state of one who laments because of experiencing grief and bereavement; and pneumatology understands lament theologically by seeing and knowing God, self, and the world through the experience with the Holy Spirit in the believers. The two perspectives above are synthesized to understand the lament in the context of the life of believer. The method used is an interdisciplinary study between psychology and pneumatology by looking for connecting points that might fill and complement each other, especially in explaining the lament of believer. The thesis of this article is that the act of lament is a self-actualization of believer which can be explained from a psychology-pneumatology perspective and in lament the Holy Spirit transforms the life of believer. Lamentation can lead to an attitude of trust in God and the courage to continue with life again or, in psychologically term, a "restoration-oriented” life.

Keywords: Spirit/Holy Spirit, lament, psychology, pneumatology, transformation.

Abstrak: Artikel ini bertujuan untuk menjelaskan perihal ratapan dari perspektif psikologi dan pneumatologi. Psikologi membantu untuk menjelaskan keadaan psikis orang yang meratap karena sedang mengalami kedukaan (grief) dan kehilangan (bereavement); dan pneumatologi memahami ratapan secara teologis dengan cara melihat dan mengenal Allah, diri, dan dunia melalui pengalaman dengan Roh Kudus. Kedua perspektif di atas disintesiskan untuk memahami ratapan dalam konteks kehidupan orang beriman. Metode yang dipakai adalah studi interdisipliner antara psikologi dan pneumatologi melalui mencari poin-poin penghubung yang mungkin saling mengisi dan melengkapi terutama dalam menjelaskan ratapan orang-orang beriman. Pernyataan tesis tulisan ini adalah tindakan ratapan merupakan sikap mengaktualkan diri dari orang beriman yang dapat dijelaskan dari perspektif psikologi-pneumatologi dan di dalam ratapan Roh Kudus mentransformasi hidup orang beriman. Ratapan dapat membawa kepada sikap percaya kepada Allah yang semakin mendalam dan berani melanjutkan kehidupan kembali atau istilahnya secara psikologi memiliki “restoration-oriented.”

Kata-kata kunci: Roh/Roh Kudus, ratapan, psikologi, pneumatologi, transformasi.

Published: February 2022

Phytopathogenic fungi Botryodiplodia theobromae causes diseases such as dieback, blights, and root rot in a variety of different hosts in tropical and subtropical regions and it include guava, coconut, papaya and grapevine plants. It also cause stem end rot disease in mango fruits. A number of angiospermic taxa were evaluated for their antifungal activity. Among the selected plants essential oil of L. cubeba was found effective in controlling the growth of Botryodiplodia theobromae. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of the essential oil was recorded 100ppm. The oil was found to withstand high inoculums density. Plant extract were prepared in water, acetone, ethyl alcohol, petroleum ether, ethyl acetate and methanol. Plant extracts of Allamanda cathartica, Lawsonia inermis, Prunus persica and L. cubeba showed inhibitory effect on the B. theobromae. However, Leaf extract of L cubeba in all the solvent namely, water, acetone, ethyl alcohol, petroleum ether, ethyl acetate and methanol were found to have antifungal activity. The extract as well as oil of L. cubeba was also found fungi toxic against other fruit rotting fungi. An enhancement in the shelf life of mango fruits was recorded under in vivo trial after treating with aqueous extract and essential oil of L. cubeba.
Factors affecting language policy choices in the multilingual context of Namibia
Authors: Norro Soili
Published: February 2022

As most African countries, Namibia is multilingual, but the linguistic diversity is not fully appreciated nor supported in the language education policy. Nationalist one nation – one language ideologies and policy makers' desire to remove Afrikaans from its former power position and replacing it with English have affected the choices of the official language and the medium of instruction policies. The current language education policy has contributed to low academic achievements and high school dropout rates. This article discusses the development of the language education policy in independent Namibia within the critical language policy framework. The language education policy is re-evaluated from a historical perspective in order to understand the current situation and the recent developments. The method is historical-structural analysis of institutional texts. The focus is on the choice of the official language and the medium of instruction policy. The covert policy is analysed in light of educational statistics and examination results. The analysis reveals that the language education policy has remained almost the same during the years of independence, and the efforts of extending mother tongue instruction to senior primary have not been successful. Despite the twofold emphasis of the overt policy of promoting the local languages and making the citizens proficient in English, the covert policy is more English-oriented. Multilingual teaching practices and pedagogies, including translanguaging, are discussed as a feasible option to promote more flexible multilingual education and to strengthen the learners' multilingual identities.

Published: February 2022

This study assessed the attitude and level of confidence of Basic 1-6 teachers in Ghana in implementing the new standard-based computing curriculum. The study employed the survey design. Simple random sampling and stratified sampling were used to select 127 teachers from five regions in Ghana. Frequencies, percentages and Pearson correlation statistics were used to analyse the data collected. The findings showed that most of the teachers have high confidence in handling the revised computing curriculum. In addition, most teachers have positive attitude towards using ICT tools for teaching and learning. Availability of ICT resources in basic schools in Ghana remains a challenge. The findings further indicated that some basic school teachers had taken academic courses to improve their academic qualifications within the last three years. However, most teachers said they had not attended any ICT-based workshop in the last one year. The study recommended more in-service training for teachers who teach computing to bring them up to speed on the computing curriculum.

Published: February 2022

Competitive advantage is considered as an element which is critical to achieve. This study argued  that employee creativity is important for gaining competitive advantage. Likewise. the study also  argued that leadership behavior play a significant role in developing creativity among employees.  For the purpose of colleting the data three leadership behaviors which are supported by the  literature in incorporating employee creativity for gaining competitive advantage have been  chosen. The data for transformational leadership, transactional leadership, and autocratic  leadership has been collected from the prior studies. The reliability and validity of the instrument  has also been ensured and the data has been collected from department of Government housing  programs in Abu Dhabi, Dubai, and Sharjah – UAE. The results of partial least square, structural  equation modeling revealed that transformational leadership, transactional leadership, and  autocratic leadership has a direct and significant positive impact over employee creativity as well  as competitive advantage. The findings further ensured that employee creativity mediates the  relationship between transformational leadership, transactional leadership, and autocratic  leadership and competitive advantage. The findings have practical as well as theoretical  significance. At the end some limitations and future recommendations are also mentioned.

Authors: Ferreira Adna Lopes , Gomes Emerlaine Ferreira , Ferreira Sherdlla Kettering de Lima
Published: February 2022

Introdução: O câncer pode ser definido como uma doença provocada por alterações genéticas que favorecem a perda de controle e funções celulares, permitindo o crescimento descontrolado e desordenado das células. Um dos métodos mais utilizados para o tratamento do câncer é a quimioterapia antineoplásica (QTA) que favorece a morte celular e consequentemente regressão da doença. Esse tratamento é realizado em doses o mais próximo possível das doses máximas individuais toleradas e devem ser administrados com a maior frequência possível para desestimular o novo crescimento do tumor e tem por objetivo curar, melhorar a sobrevida e/ou promover efeito paliativo. É de suma importância que o enfermeiro também tenha ciência sobre a RDC nº 220, pois ela oferece suporte ao profissional para trabalhar com segurança, sabendo-se que os antineoplásicos trazem diversos perigos para a saúde do profissional. Objetivo: Identificar o conhecimento dos enfermeiros sobre a biossegurança no manuseio dos quimioterápicos antineoplásicos. Método: Estudo epidemiológico transversal, descritivo com abordagem quantitativa realizado com enfermeiros de um hospital universitário. A coleta de dados ocorreu por meio de questionário auto aplicado. Resultados: Nesse estudo contamos com uma população de trinta e dois enfermeiros. A maioria dos enfermeiros (78,13%) não possuía especialização em oncologia. Do total de profissionais participantes do estudo 84,3% afirmaram não se sentirem aptos para manusear QTA. Dos participantes (90,6%) afirmaram que seguem as normas de biossegurança impostas pela legislação em vigor. Observou-se também que: 55,6% dos que tinham menos tempo de experiência responderam não saber da existência de legislação específica, entretanto, dos que tinham mais de 15 anos de experiência, 100% responderam ter conhecimento da NR. Conclusão: Os enfermeiros entrevistados têm conhecimento razoável sobre biossegurança no manuseio de quimioterapia antineoplásica, porém as lacunas encontradas direcionam para implantação de educação permanente que proporcione capacitação contínua desses profissionais e elaboração de protocolos institucionais que auxiliem no cuidado seguro aos pacientes, minimizando também os riscos ocupacionais.

Published: February 2022

Introdução: O Acidente com Material biológico (ATMB) é considerado uma urgência médica, pois existe risco de transmissão de patógenos, como hepatite B (HBV), hepatite C (HCV) e HIV. A profilaxia pós-exposição (PEP) iniciada com brevidade terá uma maior eficácia em evitar um soro conversão para hepatite B e HIV em função disso, a primeira consulta imediatamente após o ATMB tem dois objetivos principais: avaliar o risco e, consequentemente, determinar a conduta imediata para minimizar o risco de contaminação. No entanto, o que todos almejamos é uma redução no número dos acidentes com ATMB. Objetivo: Avaliar a incidência de acidentes com material biológico em profissionais de saúde, durante a pandemia comparada com os anos anteriores. Método: Estudo de coorte retrospectivo, dos profissionais de saúde que foram avaliados com acidentes registrados de 1º de janeiro de 2018 a dezembro 2020 atendidos no Serviço de Medicina Ocupacional. Resultados: Em 2018 ocorreram 197, sendo 112 em funcionários e 85 entre os residentes. Em 2019, 187 registros, sendo 117 em funcionários e 70 entre residentes. Em 2020 foram registrados apenas 158 acidentes, 117 em funcionários e 41 em residentes. Discussão e conclusão: Observamos uma redução significativa no número total de 209 acidentes, sendo maior entre os residentes. Seria resultante do impacto da introdução de materiais com dispositivos de segurança ou apenas resultado da redução dos procedimentos invasivos durante a pandemia. Desta forma mantemos divulgação e capacitação dos profissionais de saúde quanto aos procedimentos de prevenção e exposição com material biológico, repetido regularmente a fim de se formar uma consciência prevencionista
Postgraduate Research during COVID-19 in a South African Higher Education Institution: Inequality, Ethics, and Requirements for a Reimagined Future
Authors: Dawood Quraisha , Van Wyk Brenda
Published: February 2022

COVID-19 has distorted the teaching and learning pedagogy, as well as the research process of higher education institutions, particularly in Africa. This pandemic-imposed restrictions on movement and demanded a shift to online interaction. This blurred the lines between work and home life and has exacerbated the deep chasms of inequality upon which South African society operates. Established on empirical evidence, substantiated by documentary data, this paper explores how these existing inequalities, exacerbated by COVID-19, manifest in the postgraduate research space of South African higher education institutions. Qualitative data were collected during a recorded focus group interview, and thematically analysed. Through a Neo-Weberian lens, it will illustrate that the pandemic, among other challenges, posed significant ethical challenges to honours students completing their research projects, in turn, shifting policies and requirements of higher education institutions (HEIs) themselves to ensure the protection of their students and quality of research output. These include concerns around digital exclusion, locating participant consent, as well as the collection of data via online channels (Zoom, WhatsApp, Skype) and their privacy parameters. Considering these gulfs of inequality, the paper recommends key requirements for the future of ethically sound research in higher education in South Africa.
COVID-19 and Beyond: The Ethical Challenges of Resetting Higher Education Institutions Services during and after the Pandemic
Authors: Ramsuraj Trisha
Published: February 2022

COVID-19 was discovered in Wuhan, China in December 2019 and since then it has spread to all parts of the world. The world almost came to a standstill in 2020 as only essential services were allowed to operate and those who could work remotely, worked from home. For the first time in modern history, newsrooms were moved to homes, classrooms moved online, and many other services were reconfigured. Online services and the internet became essential. In this context, questions like, “How do educational systems react ethically to the ongoing challenges raised by the pandemic?” and, “What ethical values should underpin the resetting of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs)?” need to be answered. In this paper, based on desktop research, an examination of some of the ethical challenges confronting those running HEIs, researchers and lecturers as they are adapting to the ‘new normal’ is explored. This new operating environment creates difficult ethical choices. Findings from this study has shown that all South African HEIs managed to transition to online learning. However, the transition was not uniform, given the country’s background and economic divide. A number of barriers such as cost, electricity availability and internet access have been identified. Recommendations are made as to how HEIs in South Africa may protect their integrity and at the same time adapt to the new normal.

Published: February 2022

Abstract. Halo-Photonics Streamline XR doppler lidar measurements performed using several scan configurations (Velocity Azimuth Display – VAD and Doppler Beam Swing – DBS) and elevation angles of 60° and 80°, are compared to wind observations conducted by various in situ instruments (tethered balloon, meteorological mast, and radiosondes). Good agreement is obtained, with an R2 over 0.90 for wind speed and a standard error <=18.90° for wind direction for the VAD scan method. Best performance was attained with VAD and lower elevation scans (60°). These results are consistent with the higher spatial lateral homogeneity exhibited by lower angle scans. The boundary layer structure along a diurnal cycle is analyzed by utilizing retrieved backscatter data and wind measurements in conjunction with WRF simulations. Presence of multiple inversions which allow the coexistence of different layers within the studied profile is also verified using data acquired by several radiosondes. Synergic use of Lidar data with WRF simulations for low SNR regions is demonstrated.

Abstract. The Mediterranean Sea comprises just 0.8 % of the global oceanic surface, yet considering its size, it is regarded as a disproportionately large sink for anthropogenic carbon due to its physical and biogeochemical characteristics. An underwater glider mission was carried out in March–April 2016 close to the BOUSSOLE and DyFAMed time series moorings in the northwestern Mediterranean Sea. The glider deployment served as a test of a prototype ion-sensitive field-effect transistor pH sensor. Dissolved oxygen (O2) concentrations and optical backscatter were also observed by the glider and increased between 19 March and 1 April, along with pH. These changes indicated the start of a phytoplankton spring bloom, following a period of intense mixing. Concurrent measurements of CO2 fugacity and O2 concentrations at the BOUSSOLE mooring buoy showed fluctuations, in qualitative agreement with the pattern of glider measurements. Mean net community production rates (N) were estimated from glider and buoy measurements of dissolved O2 and inorganic carbon (DIC) concentrations. Glider and buoy DIC concentrations were derived from a salinity-based total alkalinity parameterisation, glider pH, and buoy CO2 fugacity. The spatial coverage of glider data allowed calculating advective O2 and DIC fluxes. Mean N estimates for the euphotic zone between 10 March and 3 April were (−17 ± 35) for glider O2, (44 ± 94) for glider DIC, (17 ± 35) for buoy O2 and (49 ± 86) mmol m–2 d–1 for buoy DIC, all indicating net metabolic balance over these 25 days. However, these 25 days were actually split into a period of net DIC increase and O2 decrease between 10 and 19 March and a period of net DIC decrease and O2 increase between 19 March and 3 April. The latter period is interpreted as the onset of the spring bloom. The regression coefficients between O2 and DIC-based N estimates were 0.25 ± 0.08 for the glider data and 0.54 ± 0.06 for the buoy, significantly lower than the canonical metabolic quotient of 1.45 ± 0.15. This study shows the added value of co-locating a profiling glider with moored time series buoys, but also demonstrates limitations in achievable precision.
SOCIÓLOGOS CLÁSSICOS E A RELIGIÃO
Authors: Machado dos Santos Adelcio , Mendes Dreone Mendes , Freiberger Rubens Luis
Published: February 2022

Objetivo de identificar reflexões a partir das ideias sociólogos Emile Durkheim, Friedrich Engels, Karl Marx e Max Weber, sobre o significado da religião. Pesquisa qualitativa, descritiva-reflexiva, de revisão bibliográfica. Nos resultados, para Durkheim o sagrado não se expressa num sistema “religioso”, domínio abrigado dos embates da vida e da vida social.  Engels coloca que correntes religiosas e os elementos sociais se aproximam como os crentes a sua classe social. Diferenças geram conflitos, consequentemente lutas entre classes sociais. Para Marx o homem constrói as religiões, a sociedade e o Estado. A religião é um sistema de ilusão para o homem suportar viver em sociedade.  Weber acreditava que o sistema Capitalista tem ideias na Reforma Protestante. Enquanto o catolicismo atribuía valor a vida eterna. Concluímos que a maior contribuição dos sociólogos sobre o tema é a descoberta da relevância provocada pelas filiações religiosas e a estratificação social nas civilizações
The Future of Disclosure
Authors: John C. Coffee, Jr.
Published: February 2022

The U.S. securities markets have recently undergone (or are undergoing) three fundamental transitions: (1) institutionalization (with the result that institutional investors now dominate both trading and stock ownership); (2) extraordinary ownership concentration (with the consequence that the three largest U.S. institutional investors now hold twenty percent and vote twenty-five percent of the shares in S&P 500 companies); and (3) the introduction of ESG disclosures (which has been driven in the U.S. by pressure from large institutional investors). In light of these transitions, how should disclosure policy change? Do institutions and retail investors have the same or different disclosure needs? Why are large institutions pressing for increased ESG disclosures?

This Article will focus on the desire of institutions for greater ESG disclosures and suggest that two reasons underlie this demand for more information: (1) ESG disclosures overlap substantially with systematic risk, which is the primary concern of diversified investors; and (2) high common ownership enables institutions to take collective action to curb externalities caused by portfolio firms, so long as the gains to their portfolio from such action exceed the losses caused to the externality-creating firms. This transition to a portfolio-wide perspective (both in voting and investment decisions) has significant implications but also is likely to provoke political controversy. In its final hours, the Trump Administration adopted new rules that discourage voting based on ESG criteria and thus by extension chill ESG investing. This controversy will continue.

As more institutions shift to portfolio-wide decisionmaking, there is an optimistic upside: externalities may be curbed by collective shareholder action. For entirely rational reasons, the new “universal” shareholders who now dominate the market will resist even large public companies who might seek to impose externalities on other companies. Owning the market, the “universal” shareholder will protect the market. Still, this process of resistance may produce frictions, and the disclosure needs of individual investors and institutional investors will increasingly diverge. Of course, not all institutional investors are indexed or even diversified, but those that remain undiversified (for example, hedge funds) logically have the perspective of an option-holder and favor greater risk-taking. Across the board, retail investors have different perspectives and preferences than do institutional investors.

Above all, the combination of high common ownership and institutional sensitivity to systematic risk makes disclosure a far more powerful force. If disclosure was once Brandeis’s best disinfectant, it is now becoming a force that can effect significant social and economic change without the need for judicial or agency intervention.
Distributed Ledger Technology and the Securities Markets of the Future
Authors: Merritt B. Fox  , Lawrence R. Glosten  , Edward F. Greene  , Sue S. Guan
Published: February 2022

This Article evaluates the implications of distributed ledger technology (DLT) for the securities markets of the future and their regulation. DLT is an integral part of the larger revolution in computing, communication and data storage capacity that has transformed securities markets over the last few decades and promises further radical change in the years to come. The potential of DLT, if it can be realized, could improve the functioning of our securities markets while at the same time sharply reducing costs. Based on an interview survey of about 100 persons who play prominent roles in actually making these markets work or in regulating them, this Article reports on the most important topics and themes that have emerged from the wide range of interviewees’ opinions about the extent to which DLT will affect the future of securities markets and their regulation. A significant number saw the potential for DLT to transform securities markets and market structure, from the possibility of stock trading on DLT to the potential impact on intermediaries, the ordinary retail investor, and on preventing wrongdoing in the stock market. However, key questions remain about implementation and the appetite for making DLT-based changes among both market participants and regulators.

Authors: Agarwala Aakriti , Saluja Manisha
Published: February 2022

Pandemics though concern the medical health of a certain community or communities, also have a significant impact on the mental health of the members of that community. Each section of society is affected, albeit differently, in a pandemic. Art and literature engage with and represent society and all its mores. In a pandemic as well, these modes of representation assume a special responsibility and role. This paper seeks to analyse the representation of the mental health of individuals and society through literary and artistic mediums. In the case of artistic mediums, cinematic portrayals will be the centre of study. These representations, in turn, affect one’s mental state and understanding of a situation. The paper will thus, study and evaluate certain literary and cinematic texts, their representation of mental health, and their applicability to the COVID-19 pandemic using established theories as supporting material to substantiate the claims made in the study of the aforementioned works.
Safe grain storage- post harvest technology: an Indian perspective
Authors: Rath Rita , Saxena Ranjana , Sood Neeraja , Gupta Sadhna

Due to green revolution and technological advancement in crop production, India has attained sufficiency in food grain productivity, yet a large population in our country goes hungry. The major reason for this is the postharvest losses that occur during storage, procurement and distribution. Factors such as improper and inadequate storage facilities, climatic conditions, ineffective management policies lead to physical, chemical and biological deterioration of food grains. Abiotic factors such as grain moisture content, temperature, initial grain condition and aeration system are crucial considerations for safe storage. Biological deterioration and losses due to fungi, mites, insects, birds and rodents are also significant. In India, Food Corporation of India (FCI) is the nodal agency, under the Ministry of consumer affairs, responsible for procurement of food grains at minimum support price (MSP), movement of produce to deficit regions, public distribution system (PDS) and maintenance of buffer stocks. Government of India constituted a high-level Shanta Kumar Committee in 2014 to recommend ways to rationalize and minimize postharvest losses, in addition to the already existing government policies. Futuristic approach to prevent these losses are to have bold and proactive reforms in India's grain management systems by implementing the recommendations of the Committee, using appropriate storage protocols, continuing subsidy only to the poor under Antyodaya Anna Yojna (AAY), controlling the subsidized grain distribution under NFSA (National Food Security Act-2013), intervention of private sectors and liquidation of stocks to contain inflation.

The microbiome plays a crucial role in controlling viral infections like the Human Papillomavirus. Getting infected by HPV is not always necessary or not sufficient for the progression of cervical cancer. According to many kinds of research, it was shown that the presence of Human papillomavirus infection is not always connected to the abundance of Lactobacilli and L. gasseri. Besides that some research data suggests an association of cervicovaginal microbiome to viral infections, there are very few things clear about the exact role of the microbiome in carcinogeneses and also about mechanisms and consequences, which are responsible for the HVP persistence and elimination. Recently there are invoked some theoretical models about the Virus-Bacteria-host organism interaction and virus-associated neoplasms are classified into five major types. The characteristics, features and variability of how the cervical epithelial cells maintain to discover various types of pathogen configuration receptors are still under research such as pathogen configuration detection receptors toll-like receptor family (TLR), Retinoic acid-inducible gene 1 (RIG-1) and Nod-like receptor family (NOD). There is a lot more to study thoroughly about how all of these receptors are functioning in virus inducible lesions and what kinds of influences do they have on virus persistence and neoplastic progression

Objective: To evaluate of the effectiveness of cardiac shockwave therapy in the treatment of ischemic heart disease with refractive angina pectoris. Subject and method: A prospective, cross-sectional study with comparison and follow-up for 6 months on 50 patients with refractive angina pectoris from January 2017 to January 2020. The protocol application of 100 shocks/spot at 0.09mJ/mm2 energy flux density for 3 - 6 spots each time, with three times per week at each series for three series at 1, 5, 9 weeks. Result: The average age was 71.32 ± 10.5 years, men accounted for 78%. The symptoms of angina improved significantly (amount of chest pain 5.87 ± 2.7 to 0.28 ± 0.45 times; Nitrat consumed per week from 6.3 ± 3.5 to 0.3 ± 0.5 tablets/week). The 6-minute walking test all improved (278.1 ± 71m compared with 390.5 ± 42.3m). CCS angina class improved significant. NYHA grade improved significantly (NYHA III from 40.7% to 11.1%, NYHA II from 51.9% to 33.3%). Pro-BNP decreased (994.99 ± 1708.9 to 429.0 ± 453.9 pg/ml). WSMI decreased from 1.49 ± 0.22 to 1.24 ± 0.12, GLS improved from -9.79 ± 2.68 to -12.7 ± 2.42. Average score of SSS, SRS, SDS markedly improved with p<0.05 by SPECT. The degree of severe perfusion defect and the wide perfusion defect area decreased significantly after treatment by 52% to 12% and 58% to 28%, respectively. Conclusion: Cardiac shockwave therapy improved clinical symptoms and increased myocardial perfusion in ischemic heart disease with refractive angina pectoris.
Management of iatrogenic right ventricular puncture: A case report
Authors: Chien Do Van
Published: February 2022

A 100-year-old female patient was admitted for a pericardial effusion with unknown etiology. Pericardiocentesis was performed and the pigtail drainage catheter was noted to be in the right ventricle and not pericardial space. A separate pigtail catheter was placed in the pericardial space and the existing pigtail catheter was removed under close hemodynamic monitoring. The patient subsequently stabilized. This case demonstrates that puncture of the right ventricle may be treated conservatively.
Treatment of left ventricular thrombus by rivaroxaban: An echocardiographic case report
Authors: Chien Do Van
Published: February 2022

Treatment of left ventricular thrombus is challenging work for the clinician. Current guidelines recommend vitamin K antagonists for thrombus resolution, however there is a growing evidence that rivaroxaban can be used in selected cases. In the paper, we report a 47 year-old-man with a large left ventricular thrombus (60x70mm) which was treated with 10 month 15mg rivaroxaban twice per day. The outcome was total resolution of left ventricular thrombus. During the treatment course, there was an episode of stroke which was completely recovered. The patient was followed up for further recurrence of LV thrombus after stopping rivaroxaban at 10-month.

Prognostic Value of Serum Cholinesterase in Acute Organophosphate Poisoning
Authors: Sah Arun Kumar , Mandal Rajesh Kumar
Published: February 2022

Background: Organophosphorus (OP) compounds are anti acetylcholinesterase, used abundantly as pesticides and often misused as poisoning agents. Irreversible inhibition of cholinesterase enzymes is attributed to the serious clinical outcomes in these patients. This study aims to identify the relationship between the serum cholinesterase (SChE) activity and outcome.
Material and Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study conducted in the Department of Internal Medicine of Bir Hospital, Kathmandu from July 2019 to December 2019. 50 patients of OP poisoning were studied. Laboratory investigations including SChE activity were performed and their management and their outcomes were recorded and analyzed by using statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) version 20.
Results: Poisoning was more predominant in young adults of the age group of 15 to 35(68%) years. Most common compound used for poisoning was chlorpyriphos 50% + cypermethrin 5% followed by dichlorvos 85% and cypermethrin. Among 50 cases 48 cases were discharged after successful management while 2 cases expired. No significant relation between initial serum level of acetylcholinesterase and outcome was observed in this study with p- value >0.05. Significant relation between initial serum acetylcholinesterase level, duration of hospital stay, atropinization dose and hospital arrival time from ingestion of poison was found with p- value of <0.05.
Conclusion: There was a significant correlation between SCH levels and total atropinization dose, duration of hospital stay and hospital arrival time. However no significant correlation was found for the clinical outcome and need of mechanical ventilator.
