Published: September 2023

Background: Choledocholithiasis is characterized by the existence of a stone in the common bile duct. Based on findings published in the Medical Clinics of North America, around 10-15% of individuals with gallstones experience the development of choledocholithiasis. Presently, the established approach for addressing common bile duct stones involves the implementation of endoscopic papillotomy and stone extraction. The combined utilization of Dormia basket, balloon catheter, and lithotripsy achieves a success rate of approximately 90%. In cases where traditional endoscopic removal methods prove ineffective, biliary stenting plays a crucial role in the conservative management of CBD stones.
Objectives: The main goal of the study was to evaluate the outcome of biliary stenting in irretrievable common bile duct stones.
Materials and Methods: This observational study took place at the Department of Gastroenterology, Dhaka Medical College and Hospital, Dhaka, from January 2018 to December 2018. The study included consecutive patients who were 18 years or older and diagnosed with common bile duct stones. These patients underwent endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) for stone extraction. The study specifically focused on patients who received biliary stenting for irretrievable common bile duct stones, and they were enrolled as participants in the study.
Results: Out of the 83 patients who underwent endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) for stone extraction, 29 patients (35%) were deemed as having irretrievable stones, necessitating the implementation of stenting. Among these irretrievable stone cases, the average age was 46.69, and there was a predominance of females with 17 patients (58.6%). Of the 29 cases, 22 patients completed the follow-up. During the follow-up ERCP, a significant reduction was observed in both the average number of stones (3.14 vs. 1.9; P=0.002) and their size (16.32 vs. 12.4; P=0.005). Successful stone extraction was achieved in 14 patients (63.64%) during the second ERCP. In one patient (4.55%), spontaneous clearance of the stone occurred, while in 7 patients (31.81%), stone extraction was not possible during the second ERCP. The reduction in mean stone size was the only significant factor affecting the success of the second ERCP. However, there was no correlation found between the duration of stenting and the reduction in stone size (r=-0.193, p=0.401).
Conclusion: Our study shows that repeat ERCP can successfully extract stones regardless of stenting duration. Unlike Western data, we emphasize the effectiveness of endoscopic biliary stenting in a context with limited access to advanced techniques, where initial stone extraction rates are lower. This approach is particularly beneficial for patients with stone sizes over 15 mm, avoiding the need for complex surgical procedures.

A Lung abscess is a type of necrosis characterized by a pus-filled cavity in the lung parenchyma. This study was conducted to identify gross and histopathological lesions in the lungs of slaughtered sheep during the period from October 2022 to February 2023. Out of 641 slaughtered sheep, 307 (47.9%) slaughtered sheep showed lung gross lesions, and 60 (19.5%) were affected by lung abscesses. Grossly, lung lesions including emphysema, congestion, and abscesses were observed in one or both lobes. Abscess size varied from small (0.3 cm) to large (5 cm), circle to irregular in shape, and was 0.2 t0 0.3 cm in depth. Microscopically, abscesses were characterized by a caseo-necrotic core surrounded by extensive leukocytic infiltration and all encapsulated by a fibrinous membrane. Air spaces were dilated and ruptured in the affected area with emphysema. This study concluded that lung abscess is a serious health issue highly prevalent in Libya and responsible for huge economic losses to the sheep industry.

Tujuan penelitian ini adalah merancang oven sebagai alat pemanggang Lemang Bambu untuk indusrti rumah tangga dengan panas yang dihasilkan oleh gas elpiji, sehingga hasil olahan lemang lebih hemat waktu, hemat tempat, efisien dan praktis. Sejauh ini produksi lemang ketang bamboo masih secara konvensional yaitu menggunakan tungku arang yang umumnya pembakaran lemang dilakukan di halaman rumah. Alat ini dibuat dalam beberapa tahapan yaitu, (1) Identifikasi kebutuhan, (2) Analisis kebutuhan, (3) Perancangan, (4) Pembuatan dan (5) Pengujian. Dengan popularnya makanan adat ini diseluruh penjuru Indonesia, pengolahan makanan ini pun masih secara tradisional, yaitu menggunakan tungku dengan memanfaatkan panas bara api dengan proses pemasakan yang cukup lama dan posisi bambu harus rutin diputar agar tidak ada bagian yang gosong atau terbakar. Bagian bambu yang gosong cenderung membuat lemang menjadi berkulit atau keras. Kecenderungan yang lain dalam pembuatan ini adalah dilakukan dengan bantuan bara api yang tentunya akan menghasilkan asap yang banyak dan tidak baik untuk kesehatan orang yang membuatnya. Kondisi cuaca juga menjadi perhatian. Karena dalam pembuatan lemang apalagi pembakarannya dilakukan diluar ruangan (tanah lapang), hal ini membutuhkan cuaca yang cerah atau tidak hujan. Oven menjadi salah satu solusi yang dapat mengurangi kegagalan dalam pembuatan lemang bamboo, tentunya biaya produksi oven ini pun terjangkau untuk dimiliki oleh masyarakat sebagai usaha industry rumah tangga. Dengan penggunaan oven dapat menghidari dari adanya produk yang gosong. Proses memutar bambu juga tidak dibutuhkan saat pemanggangan menggunakan oven gas ini. Penggunaan oven gas tentunya tidak akan menghasilkan asap pada saat pemanggangan. Alat panggang ini bisa ditempatkan di dalam ruangan seperti dapur, sehingga tidak membutuhkan ruang yang terlalu luas. Selain waktu pemanggangan lebih singkat, pembuatan lemang bambu lebih aman dan higienis serta hemat tenaga kerja.

Oven Lemang Bambu ini menghasilkan produk Lemang Bambu sesuai harapan, tekstur dan rasa dengan hasil yang sama dengan hasil pengolahan lemang konfensional. Proses pemanggangan lebih singkat dan tidak menimbulkan asap, proses pemanggangan dimana bamboo tidak perlu diputar-putar serta pemanggangan dapat dilakukan di dalam ruangan.

ENGLISH FOR BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONAL COMMUNICATION: A SYNTACTIC AMBIGUITY ANALYSIS OF A STUDY PROGRAM’S NAME
Authors: Valentino Yosafat Barona
Published: September 2023

This qualitative descriptive research aims to explore the different meanings that can be derived from the name of a study program, i.e., English for Business and Professional Communication, using a syntactic approach. The syntactic approach employed was the X-bar theory rules to analyze the possibilities of the structural meaning. The results show three possible structural interpretations of the program’s name: (i) an English language program with two specific objectives, namely business and professional communication, (ii) a program with two specializations, namely English language for business purposes and professional communication, and (iii) an English language program with a specific purpose in the field of communication, which is divided into two sub-fields, namely business communication and professional communication. Thus, the English for Business and Professional Communication study program name is an ambiguous construction with three possible structural readings.

Published: September 2023

En el presente estudio se indaga en las formas en que las aplicaciones de mensajería instantánea basadas en telefonía celular se han incorporado progresivamente a las prácticas educativas en Educación Superior y qué sucedió con este proceso durante la pandemia de COVID19. Los objetivos fueron indagar acerca del uso de aplicaciones de mensajería en los procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje durante los años 2020 y 2021 en docentes de nivel universitario de la ciudad de Rosario; examinar motivos, representaciones y valoraciones de las experiencias docentes con relación al uso de estas aplicaciones; y comparar opiniones sobre las posibles implicancias del uso de las aplicaciones. Se aplicó un cuestionario con preguntas cerradas y abiertas a una muestra de 201 docentes de universidades públicas y privadas. Se realizó un análisis estadístico descriptivo de las preguntas cerradas y un análisis de contenido de las preguntas abiertas. Se concluye que, si bien las aplicaciones de mensajería instantánea fueron un importante medio de comunicación antes y después de la pandemia, el uso que se hizo de las mismas no puede considerarse educativo en términos constructivistas, sin embargo, con la apropiada formación y apoyo institucional podrían convertirse en una herramienta educativa privilegiada.

Published: September 2023

In this study, some new inequalities for n-times differentiable strongly s-convex functions are introduced. These inequalities are obtained via the perturbed trapezoid inequality. We obtain a better bound for the mentioned inequalities with the strongly s-convex functions. nth derivatives of absolute values of the handled functions are strongly s-convex. Finally, the theorems presented for strongly s-convex functions are reduced to the ones given for s-convex functions when the constant from strongly s-convexity vanishes.
Representation of the solution of the M-Sturm-Liouville problem with natural transform
Authors: Bas Erdal , Karaoglan Merve
Published: September 2023

In this article, we develop the natural transform in terms of the M-derivative improving the basic notions for a new interesting version of the fractional transform. The properties and relations of certain functions for the natural transform of the M-derivative are introduced. The natural transform with the M-derivative is the more general version of the natural transform for the conformable operator. Furthermore, this method is successfully applied to find the general solutions of some fractional differential equations with M-derivative. We propose a significant spectral data with boundary conditions under M-Sturm-Liouville problem. We offer the representation of the solution for the M-Sturm-Liouville problem, depending on both the boundary and initial conditions. Our main aim is to extract the solution representation of the M-Sturm-Liouville problem by using the natural transform and observe the problem by supporting the spectral structure of the M-Sturm- Liouville problem with graphs. Finally, these results show that our new approach is simple, effective and accurate.

Ästhetik der Rührung - Erkundungen auf dem Gebiet eines wenig angesehenen Gefühls
Authors: Fayet Roger
Published: September 2023

Rührung ist ein vertrautes, aber nur selten reflektiertes Gefühl. Im doppelten Sinn ist es «wenig angesehen»: Nicht nur hat es bislang vergleichsweise wenig wissenschaftliche Aufmerksamkeit erfahren, es wird auch schnell – gerade wenn es im Kontext von Kunst auftritt – als Anzeichen für fehlende Tiefe gesehen. Roger Fayet sucht in seiner Auseinandersetzung mit möglicherweise rührenden Kunstwerken nach einem besseren Verständnis dieses Gefühls, das er im Kontext ästhetischer Erfahrung sowie im Licht historischer und gegenwärtiger Theorien betrachtet. Er erkundet sein Thema in einem weiten zeitlichen Horizont: von der Ästhetik der Antike bis in die Kunst und Kunsttheorie der Gegenwart.
