Selbstverständigung und Verselbstständigung. Zum 90. Geburtstag von Jürgen Habermas
Authors: Saar Martin
Published: September 2019

Anlässlich seines 90. Geburtstags und des Erscheinens eines großen neuen Buchs von Jürgen Habermas soll ein kurzer Blick auf sein Werk zeigen, dass er nicht nur für dezidierte Thesen und Positionen steht, sondern auch für einen ganz bestimmten Theoriegestus. Der Aufweis grundlegender Ambivalenzen oder das Nebeneinanderstellen von Ermöglichungs- und Verhinderungsbedingungen charakterisiert Habermas’ kritische Interventionen zum Verhältnis von Sprache und Kommunikation, Politik und Kommunikation und Vernunft und Religion. Er ist damit nicht nur ein normativer Denker, sondern auch ein Diagnostiker gesellschaftlicher Komplexität.
Demokratischer Universalismus – Von der evolutionären Gewohnheit zur emanzipatorischen Praxis. Jürgen Habermas zum 90. Geburtstag
Authors: Brunkhorst Hauke
Published: September 2019

Am Beispiel der durch die historische Wende vom progressiven zum regressiven Reformismus ermöglichten globalen Finanzkrise von 2008 wird versucht, das komplexe Verhältnis von revolutionärem Handeln und naturwüchsig evoluierender Gewohnheit zu klären. Es bestätigt sich, dass Evolutionstheorien durch die Tatsache, dass „vorwärts gelebt“ werden muss (Kierkegaard), begrenzt sind und die Krise den Horizont revolutionären Handelns öffnet, das die Richtung der Evolution zu ändern versucht. Für diese Öffnung sind insbesondere die normativ neutralisierten, funktionalistischen Evolutionstheorien, die es mit der Kontingenz übertreiben, blind.
Frankreich, Deutschland und die europäische Integration im Aachener Vertrag
Authors: Seidendorf Stefan
Published: September 2019

How “European” is the new Franco-German bilateral treaty signed in Aachen on 22 January 2019? And what kind of “Franco-German leadership for Europe” does it stipulate? The article starts by establishing a model of Franco-German cooperation and leadership in the European Union, which then allows to analyse the content of the treaty. The treaty can be seen as a strategic commitment to European integration and to Franco-German leadership. It outlines far-reaching ambitions in foreign policy cooperation as well as in the areas of security and defence, where the established European model is particularly prone to bilateral leadership. The treaty is more nuanced in the field of economic and social politics, where a Franco-German economic area shall be established. While this could potentially balance Franco-German asymmetries, it will also raise questions particularly amongst Eastern European Member States.
Die Europäische Union, die Östliche Partnerschaft und „Assoziierung Plus“: zur Debatte über die Einbindung assoziierter Nachbarn unterhalb einer EU-Mitgliedschaft
Authors: Schumacher Tobias
Published: September 2019

This article takes up the European Neighbourhood Policy-related debate on the future design of the association policy of the European Union (EU) towards the countries of the Eastern Partnership (EaP). It pursues two objectives. First, it examines - apart from a brief discussion of the origins and genesis of the concept of “association plus” in the context of the wider EU neighbourhood framework - how the intra-EU discourse on the future of the EaP has evolved and changed in recent years and which propositions are nowadays at the core of the debate. Secondly, it analyses these propositions, mainly revolving around the integration of EaP countries into the emerging Energy and Digital Union and the Schengen Area as well as the creation of bilateral customs unions, in what regards opportunities and challenges for the eastern neighbours. The article argues that “association plus”, as demanded by the European Parliament and some EaP countries, would generate considerable financial and political costs even for those eastern neighbours that have implemented significant reforms and that it seems acceptable only if it were explicitly declared as an intermediate step towards the granting of an EU membership perspective.
Marktmanipulation und zivilrechtliche Haftung
Authors: Carstens Philipp
Published: September 2019

Because of the exhaust emission scandal involving Volkswagen and the attack on Borussia Dortmund’s team bus, among other things, the issue of market manipulation has received increased public scrutiny. But why has such behaviour entailed only criminal and administrative consequences so far but has not been punished in the civil law courts? In this study, the author raises this question and analyses if and how the prohibition of market manipulation, which is now embedded in EU law, can be enforced by the instruments of civil law. In contrast to many of the works that have been published on this topic, this study does not stop at the question of the necessity of an appropriate basis for such claims, but instead develops proposals for a detailed concept of liability in this regard.
Die Kompetenzen innerhalb der GmbH bei der Sanierung im Schutzschirmverfahren
Authors: Wunder Patrick
Published: September 2019

Especially due to the possibility of incorporating measures under company law into an insolvency plan drawn up in protective proceedings pursuant to Section 270b of InsO (Germany’s insolvency regulations), insolvency proceedings have been seen as a strategic option for an insolvent GmbH (the German equivalent of a limited company) since the ESUG (the German law intended to facilitate company restructuring) came into effect in 2012. However, the ‘Suhrkamp’ case has revealed that insolvency proceedings can turn out to be a ‘horror scenario’, particularly from the point of view of a non-executive (minority) shareholder. Whether this is actually the case also depends on the extent to which shareholders can influence a company’s restructuring in insolvency plan proceedings.
In this book, the author therefore examines the extent to which there is a shift in the distribution of responsibilities under company law in the respective stages of such insolvency proceedings. He shows that insolvency law should not have comprehensive priority over company law.

Pressupostos para o não-saber: do niilismo ao desfazimento do eu e a vacuidade em Nishitani
Authors: Santos Eder Soares , Morais Symon Pereira de
Published: September 2019

Pretende-se mostrar, a partir do pensamento de Keiji Nishitani, os pressupostos para a discussão sobre o “vazio-saber” e que passa pela questão do niilismo e da vacuidade em sua filosofia. O problema do niilismo em Nishitani, diferente da perspectiva adotada pelos filósofos ocidentais, não está ligada à ideia de que o Eu frente ao Nada perde seus fundamentos e sua existência, deixando de ter sentido. Pelo contrário, é no encontro com o Nada que o homem pode descobrir e entrar em contato com sua verdadeira essência, uma vez que, é nesse encontro que sua existência se revela. Isso só seria possível caso o Eu realizasse um processo de auto abertura, um salto para dentro da Vacuidade (Sunyata), para que aí sua verdadeira face se revele e ele possa encontrar seu verdadeiro ser. Pretende-se desenvolver esses desdobramentos ao longo do artigo.

Individuação como filosofia prática: a clínica da “meia-idade” de C. G. Jung e a doutrina indiana dos Puruṣārthas
Authors: Loundo Dilip
Published: September 2019

A intervenção histórica de Jung constitui, em nossa opinião, uma proposta de revitalização, na modernidade, de uma filosofia soteriológica que se ancora, estrategicamente, no contexto disciplinar de uma “psicologia científica”. Enquanto “clínica da meia-idade” ou “clínica da individuação”, o modelo que mais diretamente inspira a psicologia analítica de Jung é o athanasius pharmakon dos antigos - a “medicina da imortalidade”. Seu arcabouço conceitual, ao invés de uma teoria científica de pretensões universalizantes, consagra-se como linguagem-força que estrutura e sustenta, no Ocidente moderno, uma reflexão dialógica e conversacional analista-analisando (‘therapeia’), comprometida com a eliminação sistemática dos “invólucros falsos” que encobrem o Si-Mesmo (Self) e com a realização de uma verdade existencialmente transformadora que promove, em definitivo, a plenitude existencial. Para sustentar essa linha interpretativa, fazemos recurso à doutrina indiana dos Puruṣārthas (aspirações humanas), em especial ao processo de transição entre dharma (dever moral) e mokṣa (realização final).

O PAPEL DA AFETIVIDADE NO ENSINO DE FILOSOFIA: UM ESTUDO A PARTIR DE MARTIN HEIDEGGER A MICHEL HENRY
Authors: Maciel Diego
Published: September 2019

Resumo: Este artigo objetiva apresentar e ressaltar a importância da afetividade no ensino de filosofia. O estudo acerca da afetividade surge devido à necessidade de explorar os campos férteis do afeto, relacionados ao ser no mundo, o que vai nos exigir, em primeira instância, que seja feita uma fundamentação teórica de tal questão, a saber, a visão da “afetividade” em autores tradicionais da filosofia. Desta forma, nos utilizamos de dois autores os quais vão servir de base sólida para a pesquisa. São eles Martin Heidegger e Michel Henry. Neste sentido, através do termo Dasein, trazido à tona por Heidegger, passamos a analisar o ser no mundo; segundo o filosofo, o Dasein, no mundo, será o principal meio de acesso à afetividade, pois o Dasein “ser-aí” se envolve com o mundo através das disposições emotivas as quais o tornam capazes de sentir, criar e desejar. Já Michel Henry pretende dar um salto a mais neste proposito afetivo e engrandece a discussão, ao passo que ele apresenta a fenomenologia da vida. Neste sentido, sua proposta é apresentar a vida como meio de aceso a todas as coisas, através da auto-afectação, levando, desta forma, a existência humana como uma experiência junto do mundo. Tanto Heidegger quanto Michel Henry pretendem demostrar que a afetividade está relacionada com o ser, o que demostra e afirma que as relações de afeto denominam o modo do ser “ser” no mundo. Isso nos leva a ressaltar sua importância para o ensino de filosofia, onde se faz necessária sua inserção e desenvolvimento na grade curricular, onde ela possa se sobressair em relação à maneira tradicional de ser apresentada, dando um novo sentido ao ensino, pautado nas necessidades dos alunos.  Palavras-chave: Afetividade; Filosofia; Vida; Ser.
CLÁSSICOS LITERÁRIOS COMO MOTIVAÇÃO PARA A AULA DE FILOSOFIA
Authors: Oliveira Michael De
Published: September 2019

O presente trabalho pretende referenciar o ensino de Filosofia desde textos da literatura clássica, abordando, especificamente, a obra "As Viagens de Gulliver" de Jonathan Swift, apresentando que não existe apenas uma leitura agradável em obras clássicas. O autor aborda problemas éticos e políticos de seu tempo tendo em consideração o contexto vivido, onde duas grandes potências, Inglaterra e França, disputavam a soberania mundial, com suas revoluções e inovações tecnológicas. O texto traz uma crítica, apontando questões políticas que fizeram com que os reinos de Lilipute e Blefuscu se apartassem por questões miúdas. Aborda contextos éticos e morais destacando problemas com corrupção. Apresenta situações de um governo patrimonialista além de apresentar certo nível de racionalismo crítico. A imagem deturpada da humanidade é ponto de destaque, percebendo-se aspectos totalitários denunciados em uma das viagens. O objetivo deste trabalho é propor a utilização da obra, bem como de outras obras literárias, para verificar contexto histórico, ético e político, que passam despercebidos da maioria dos estudantes. Percebe-se, na obra referida, contexto atemporal. Surge o desafio de averiguação acerca da questão ético/política ainda em destaque, com diversas questões, tais como: Quais as diferenças e/ou semelhanças que percebemos com esta questão atualmente? Por qual motivo Swift se utiliza desta fantasiosa imaginação em seu escrito? O que ele pretendia denunciar ou apurar?
O DESAFIO DO ENSINO DE FILOSOFIA COM OS JOVENS DO ENSINO MÉDIO
Authors: Vizzotto Rozilene
Published: September 2019

O artigo propõe pensar o ensino de Filosofia com os jovens, considerando os interesses em meio à cultura midiática e imagética, a qual compõem suas vivências existenciais na contemporaneidade, pois consideramos que a Filosofia somente se torna significativa à medida que o seu ensino seja pautado, metodologicamente por princípios que enfatizem a importância da investigação e problematização conceitual de temas filosóficos e que tais princípios estejam implicados na experimentação filosófica. Nesse sentido, cabe a pergunta: É possível filosofar com os jovens do ensino médio? Para responder a esse questionamento, objetivamos investigar a possibilidade do exercício filosófico com os jovens, considerando as condições socioculturais e quais são os possíveis modos do exercício filosófico no contexto da escola básica. Sabemos que a atividade filosófica requer leitura atenta desde o surgimento do problema filosófico até a sua solução. A escrita filosófica exige uma atitude de espreita à criação conceitual. Para tanto, o professor de filosofia precisa definir sua prática, propondo a experimentação filosófica mediada pelas tecnologias de comunicação e informação, a arte e o cinema, considerando que tais dispositivos são possibilidades de conexão entre o objetivo de tratar o problema filosófico e a cultura da imagem e do que resulta da relação dos jovens com o universo das redes sociais midiáticas.
CAMINHOS LITERÁRIOS DO ENSINO DE FILOSOFIA
Authors: Maiotti Álvaro De Souza
Published: September 2019

O objetivo do presente artigo consiste em delinear uma proposta metodológica para o ensino de filosofia fundamentada em suas relações com a literatura. Como ponto de partida, adotamos uma concepção contemporânea e bem específica quanto à natureza da filosofia e de seu ensino, na qual seu desenvolvimento é provocado pelos problemas que são explorados e discutidos pelos filósofos ao longo da história. Dentre as metodologias disponíveis, a abordagem problemática do ensino de filosofia mostra-se a mais coerente com a natureza da disciplina e de seu ensino porque postula o exercício criativo do filosofar por parte do estudante. Considerando algumas pedagogias atuais que postulam uma forma de ensino menos compartimentada e mais integrada, sua articulação com a literatura apresenta-se como um caminho possível para o ensino de filosofia no contexto da educação básica. Dadas as antigas relações entre filosofia e literatura, texto e discurso surgem, a um tempo, como recurso e produto das aulas.
DORMI EXPECTADOR, ACORDEI PROTAGONISTA: REFLEXÕES SOBRE A TRANSIÇÃO DO DISCENTE PARA O DOCENTE NA FILOSOFIA
Authors: Redin Ezequiel
Published: September 2019

O processo de formação de professores de Filosofia é complexo e ultrapassa as questões relacionadas ao fato de estar atrelado apenas a um expectador das aulas. No ensino de graduação de Filosofia no Brasil há muitos desafios para se romper na formação dos futuros docentes, inclusive, a condição de expectador. O trabalho objetiva refletir sobre o processo de formação nos cursos de Filosofia em âmbito de licenciatura e a sua relação com os percursos iniciais dos professores formados que ingressam na escola em suas primeiras imersões no contexto da docência. A problemática central envolve compreender a forma do ensino de filosofia através de suas experiências como estudantes e que, posteriormente, são reproduzidas como docentes de Filosofia. Para tanto, tratamos de compreender os métodos, as formas de ensinar e aprender nos cursos de licenciatura e o que essas relações influenciam no futuro da sua prática docente nas escolas de ensino médio.

Por meio de uma pesquisa bibliográfica em escritos de autores que abordam a história do ensino de Filosofia, bem como de uma pesquisa documental, percebemos as idas e vindas, presenças e ausências desse ensino na educação formal. Cada nova reforma nos currículos ameaça a presença da Filosofia nos currículos escolares, urge, então, defender a sua permanência, apontando a sua especificidade diante das outras disciplinas, isto é, mostrando aquilo que justifica sua presença nas escolas.
Influence of Treating Facility, Provider Volume, and Patient-Sharing on Survival of Patients With Multiple Myeloma
Authors: Freeman Ashley T. , Kuo May , Zhou Lei , Trogdon Justin G. , Baggett Chris D. , Tuchman Sascha A. , Shea Thomas C. , Wood William A.
Published: September 2019

Background: Population-based studies suggest that patients with multiple myeloma (MM) have better outcomes when treated at high-volume facilities, but the relative contribution of provider expertise and hospital resources to improved outcomes is unknown. This study explored how treating facility, individual provider volume, and patient-sharing between MM specialists and community providers influenced outcomes for patients with MM. Patients and Methods: A state cancer registry linked to public and private insurance claims was used to identify a cohort of patients diagnosed with MM in 2006 through 2012. Three multivariable Cox models were used to examine how the following factors impacted overall survival: (1) evaluation at an NCI-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center (NCICCC), (2) the primary oncologist’s volume of patients with MM, and (3) patient-sharing between MM specialists and community oncologists. Results: A total of 1,029 patients diagnosed with MM in 2006 through 2012 were identified. Patients who were not evaluated at an NCICCC had an increased risk of mortality compared with those evaluated at an NCICCC (hazard ratio [HR], 1.50; 95% CI, 1.21–1.86; P<.001). Compared with patients treated by NCICCC MM specialists, those treated by both low-volume community providers (HR, 1.47; 95% CI, 1.14–1.90; P<.01) and high-volume community providers (HR, 1.29; 95% CI, 1.04–1.61; P<.05) had a higher risk of mortality. No difference in mortality was seen between patients treated by NCICCC MM specialists and those treated by the highest-volume community oncologists in the ninth and tenth deciles (HR, 1.08; 95% CI, 0.84–1.37; P=.5591). Patients treated by community oncologists had a higher risk of mortality regardless of patient-sharing compared with patients treated by MM specialists (eg, community oncologist with a history of sharing vs NCICCC MM specialist: HR, 1.49; 95% CI, 1.10–2.02; P<.05). Conclusions: Findings of this study add to the accumulating evidence showing that patients with MM benefit from care at high-volume facilities, and suggest that similar outcomes can be achieved by the highest-volume providers in the community.
Fine-Needle Aspiration Biopsy of Liver Lesions Yields Higher Tumor Fraction for Molecular Studies: A Direct Comparison With Concurrent Core Needle Biopsy
Authors: Goldhoff Patricia Ellen , Vohra Poonam , Kolli Kanti Pallav , Ljung Britt-Marie
Published: September 2019

Background: This retrospective study evaluated and compared the diagnostic accuracy and suitability of tissue specimens for advanced molecular diagnostic testing obtained via 2 different techniques for percutaneous biopsy of primary and metastatic liver tumors. Patients and Methods: Samples from 137 patients with liver masses who underwent concurrent fine-needle aspiration biopsy with cell block (FNAB-CB) and core needle biopsy (CNB) at 2 hospitals were assessed for diagnostic accuracy, tumor fraction, and tumor cellularity. A subset of FNAB-CBs, that were deemed to have less or equal tumor cellularity compared with CNBs, had level sections performed and were reassessed for tumor cellularity. Results: Diagnostic accuracy was 96% for FNAB and 93% for CNB (P=.267). In FNAB-CBs, tumor fraction was significantly higher than in CNB samples (67% vs 36%; P<.0001), whereas nontumor components were significantly lower (stromal component, 7% vs 29%; P<.0001; background benign hepatocytes, 25% vs 36%; P=.003). Additionally, in 44% of cases, FNAB-CB tumor cellularity was equal to or greater than that of the concurrent CNB. Conclusions: In the current age of personalized medicine, a minimally invasive, safe approach to obtaining adequate tissue for myriad molecular testing is paramount. We have shown that FNAB sampling is diagnostically accurate and produces higher tumor fractions than CNB. Thus, FNAB should be strongly considered as an initial sampling modality, especially for patients in whom molecular tests will determine management.

A Pregnant Woman with Multi-Fragmented Giant Cell Tumor of Tendon Sheath: A Rare Anatomical Location
Authors: Arican Mehmet , Turhan Yalçın
Published: September 2019

Giant cell tumor of the tendon sheath (GCTTS) in the foot is a rare pathology and is involved in the differential diagnosis of soft-tissue tumors of the foot and ankle. Although it can affect any age group, GCTTS mainly occurs at the 3rd and 5th decade and is more common in females. Histopathologic examination is a major definitive method for diagnosis, although physical examination and radiologic imaging are helpful in reaching a diagnosis preoperatively. Many treatment options exist but marginal excision is the most commonly used treatment. We describe the case of a 26-year-old pregnant woman with a multi-fragmented mass extending from the first web space to the plantar aspect of the metatarsophalangeal joint (MTP) of the left great toe associated with flexor hallucis longus tendon after trauma. She had pain that worsened with activity and wearing shoes. After pregnancy, a marginal excision with dorsal longitudinal incision in the first web space was performed under spinal anesthesia. The lesion was diagnosed as a localized type tenosynovial giant cell tumor. At the last follow-up appointment in the 23rd month, the patient was doing well and there was no recurrence of the lesion. GCSST should be considered in the differential diagnosis of plantar masses of foot. Although, GCTTS is frequently seen in females, it has not been previously reported in a pregnant woman with an extremely rare condition after trauma.
A Comparative Study of Copper, Zinc and Aluminium as Electrodes in the Preparation of Starch-based Polyelectrolyte
Authors: Jeje J. O. , Oladepo K. T.
Published: September 2019

Alum (Al2 (SO4)3. 18H2O) has been the coagulant mostly used in the water treatment process. Alum imported into the country gets stuck at the port because of the congestion of the port. When alum is used to coagulate water, it depresses the pH of the water, thus, requiring a pH booster. Because of the high dependence on alum, alternative coagulants produced with local raw materials will be of great advantage. A starch-based polyelectrolyte was prepared by dispersing 3 g of cassava starch and 10 g of heaping teaspoon of high-test granular calcium hypochlorite (commercially available as HTH) in 100 ml distilled water; making it up to a litre solution with hot distilled water (temperature 80ºC – 100ºC) and electrolysing by means of stabilized power supply using aluminium rods as electrodes to produce polyelectrolyte A. Copper rods and zinc rods were similarly used to polyelectrolyte B and polyelectrolyte C respectively. To test the effect(s) and interaction of the charging variables, i.e. separating distance, power supply and time of charging, a three-factor experiment (23 factorial designs) was carried out. The variables were operated at High Level (+) and Low Level (-). The analysis indicates that the power of charging has the most significant effect on the coagulation characteristics of the starch-based polyelectrolyte. Polyelectrolytes A and C were tested with raw water drawn from Opa dam and were found to be effective water coagulants. Polyelectrolyte B on the other hand, adds to the turbidity of the raw water with which it was tested. Polyelectrolyte A was found to be as effective as Alum at natural water condition (pH 7) causing better than 88% turbidity removal with the dosage of 65 mg/l.

Published: September 2019

The study investigated the effects of jigsaw-puzzle and graphic organizer instructional strategies on Biology students’ performance in Ukwa West Local Government Area, Abia State. Three groups pre-test post-test control group non-equivalent quasi-experimental design was employed in the study. Two objectives, two research questions and two hypotheses guided the study. One hundred and fifty-one (151) senior secondary school one (SSS1) students out of a total population of 450 Biology students formed the sample size of the study. Biology Performance Test on growth (BPTOG) was used for gathering data. The instrument was tested using test re-test method and was validated by two experts in the Department of Curriculum Studies and Educational Technology, University of Port Harcourt, Nigeria.

Background: Physician burnout has garnered increased attention in recent studies. It is attributed to the intrinsic stresses of medical practice and affects the quality of patient care. Previous studies have reported roughly half of orthopedic surgery and anesthesiology faculty and residents suffer symptoms of burnout.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to determine if there is a significant difference in burnout rates among orthopedic surgeons and anesthesiologists, between faculty and residents in both specialties, and possible associated factors that may predispose participants to experience burnout.    

Methods: Data was gathered using the Maslach Burnout inventory survey (42 questions), which was distributed during the spring/summer of 2017 to orthopaedic surgery and anesthesiology residents and attending physicians, anesthesiology residents, orthopedic surgery faculty, and orthopedic surgery residents from various programs in the northeastern United States.

Results: Survey Response rate was 238/666 = 38% response. As compared to attendings, residents scored: worse on Emotional Exhaustion; worse on Depersonalization and worse on Personal Accomplishment. When comparing specialties; for Emotional Exhaustion, Orthopaedic surgery scored better as compared with Anesthesiology. On Personal Accomplishment, Orthopaedic surgery scored better as compared with Anesthesiology. Residents had higher levels of burnout compared to attendings. Regarding specialty, Orthopaedic surgery scored significantly lower with regard to Emotional Exhaustion and Personal Accomplishment. It was also discovered that Orthopaedic surgeons overall have more social events, and more residents have mentors.

Conclusion: Residents consistently demonstrated higher levels of burnout than attendings in both anesthesiology and orthopaedic surgery. Having a mentor and more interdepartmental social events may protect against burnout.

Published: September 2019

Introduction: Siddha Medicine is a system of traditional medicine originating in ancient Tamil Nadu in South India and Sri Lanka. Traditionally, it is taught that the siddhars laid the foundation for this system of medicine. Siddha system has a unique diagnostic method to identify the diseases and their causes. Manikkadai nool is one of the diagnostic tool. It is explained in the Agasthiyar Soodamani Kajiru Soothiram by Saint Veadammamuni in Pathinen Siddhar Naadi Nool.

Aim: The primary aim of this study was to do a literature review and documentation of traditional siddha diagnostic method of Manikkadai Nool.

Study Setting: Government Siddha Medical College, Palayamkottai from March to August 2019.

Methodology: It is a review of relevant literatures on traditional siddha diagnostic method of manikkadai nool. Data for the literature review were collected from related literatures and websites. Collected data were processed and statistically analyzed by a simple statistical method using Microsoft Excel.

Results and Discussion: Manikkadai Nool is a parameter to diagnose the state of disease by measuring the circumference of the wrist by means of a thread and then dividing the measured circumference with the patient’s finger. By this measurement the disease can be diagnosed. When the Manikkadai nool is 11 finger breadth (fbs), the person will be stout and he/she will live a healthy life for many years. When the Manikkadai nool measures from 4 to 6, it indicates bad prognosis of disease and the severity of the illness will be high and it leads to death. One of the research articles said that the cardiac diseases and uterine fibroids had a more predilection than other diseases of Manikkadai Nool measure falling in the fringe range of 10-10.75 finger breadths.

Conclusion: This literature review provides useful documented evidence on the siddha diagnostic methods of Manikkadai Nool. However, there is need to more clinical studies to validate the measurements.

Septic shock may occur in critically ill patients and despite antimicrobial treatment, it is associated with a high mortality rate. It is reasonable to look for new treatment modalities that might improve outcome. This is a randomized, double-blind control trial aiming at critically-ill septic patients in a tertiary hospital. Patients with quick sofa score of 2 and with organ dysfunction were included in this study. The intervention group received high doses of vitamin C at a dose of 50 mg/kg/four times daily along with thiamine at a dose of 200 mg/ twice daily) and the control group received normal saline for four days. The dose of vasopressors, procalcitonin and lactate clearance, and mean sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score were examined in the two groups. Patients were followed for 28 days. One hundred patients were allocated into two equal groups, and there was no difference between the two groups regarding baseline characteristics. Mean lactate concentration, SOFA score, days of antimicrobial therapy, and mortality at 28 days were similar between them. However, the mean procalcitonin concentration, and mean vasopressor treatment hours were significantly lower in the intervention group (p<0.05). Although Days of ICU stay were lower in the intervention group, It did not reach statistical significance. The results of this study showed that treatment with high dose vitamin C Reduces the vasopressor requirement without any effects on other parameters. Further studies with larger sample size are required for more generalizable results.

As a result of the limitations of physical and chemical methods for monitoring pollution, interest on the more reliable biological monitoring intensified over the past four decades. Soil microarthropods, specifically the free-living mites (Cryptostigmata, Mesostigmata, Prostigmata) and Collembolans were used as monitor (ability to withstand pollutants) and indicator (sensitive to pollutants) species in the Eastern Niger Delta. Study was undertaken in the Western Niger Delta (Delta State) across three eco-vegetational zones (freshwater swamp forest, Mangrove swamp forest, Lowland rainforest) in the area to determine if these ecosystem health indicators were widely distributed in these zones. Collections were made during the rainy season over a 4-month period. A modified Berlese-Tullgren funnel was used for extraction of microarthropds. Free-living mites: Cryptostigmata (Oribatida) – Archogozettes magnus, Opiida sp., Annecticarus sp., Bicyrthermania negeriana, Cephalida sp., Scheloribates sp., Galumnida sp., Mesostigmata (Gamasida) - Asca sp., Trichuropodida and Collembolan – Paronella sp., were widely distributed across the eco-vegetational zones. Oribatids were most abundant across eco-vegetational zones. These mesofauna contained the full complement of monitor and indicator species. It is therefore possible to use these mesofauna for biomonitoring of oil pollution across the Niger Delta (eastern and western sectors), Nigeria.

Consumption of bread and other baked aerated wheat flour products has spurred the needs to determine the leavening ability of different brands of baker’s yeast used in bread production. In this study we assessed the leaving ability of different brands of baker’s yeast in production of quality bread and the flour used in baking test was Dangote flour. Seven brands of different commercial baker’s yeast were collected from the 13 different brands sold in Jos market. These brands includes: Angel instant active dry yeast (ANGY), Saf-instant active dry yeast (SAFY), Food mont instant active dry yeast (FOMY), Pasha instant active dry yeast (PASY), STK- Royal active dry yeast (ROYA), Vahine active dry yeast (VAHY) and Fermipan active dry yeast (FEMY). The results of the viability tests for the different brands of active dry yeast indicated that six out of the seven brands were 100% viable while one had only one dead cell. Statistical analysis (one-sample-t- test) revealed that there was significant different among the different brands of yeasts used (p<0.05), however ANGY had the highest performance viability (p<0.002) and PASY had the least (p<0.039) as shown in Table 3 in appendix. The result of the pH variation as function of time at 260C shows steady decrease in pH values of all the different brands of yeast suspension. Using regression analysis, pH at 150 minutes contribute  96 percent to the leavening ability of different brands of baker’s yeast used in  bread production and 30 minutes contribute the lowest 9.1 percent as shown in the Table 4 in the appendix. It was concluded that all the seven brands of baker’s yeast tested were suitable for use in bread production when compared with the standard.
Did you wash your hands? Evaluating memory for objects touched by healthy individuals and individuals with contagious and noncontagious diseases
Authors: Gretz Matthew R. , Huff Mark J.
Published: September 2019

Prior research suggests that individuals recruit a disease‐avoidance system designed to avoid sources of illness through threat detection and memory. Our study evaluated whether disease‐related memory benefits reflect the distinctive/salient nature of a diseased state versus the infectious nature of a disease by comparing memory for objects touched by healthy individuals or those with a contagious or noncontagious disease. Participants studied videos depicting an actor interacting with objects in which the actor was described as diagnosed with influenza, an infectious disease, cancer, a noninfectious disease, or was healthy, followed by free‐recall and source‐recognition tests. Correct recall and source recognition were greater overall for touched versus nontouched items, but source recognition was particularly elevated for items touched by the infectious influenza actor. Further, touched‐item recognition was positively related to participants' assessed germ aversion—supplemental evidence that disease concerns may facilitate source recollections for touched objects.
An enhanced state estimation for linear parabolic PDE systems with mobile sensors
Authors: Wu Huai‐Ning , Zhang Xiao‐Wei
Published: September 2019

This paper studies an enhanced
state estimation problem of distributed parameter processes modeled by a linear parabolic partial differential equation using mobile sensors. The proposed estimation scheme contains a state estimator and the guidance of mobile sensors, where the spatial domain is decomposed into multiple subdomains according to the number of sensors and each sensor is capable of moving within the respective subdomain. The state estimator is desired to make the state estimation error system exponentially stable while providing an
performance bound. The mobile sensor guidance is used to enhance the transient performance of the error system. By the Lyapunov direct technique, an integrated design of state estimator and mobile sensor guidance laws is developed in the form of bilinear matrix inequalities (BMIs) to meet the desired design objectives. Moreover, to make the
performance bound as small as possible, a suboptimal enhanced
state estimation problem is formulated as a BMI optimization one, which can be solved via an iterative linear matrix inequality algorithm. Finally, numerical simulations are given to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
