A Case of Ramsay Hunt Syndrome Showing Central Findings due to Brainstem Involvement
Authors: Lee Min Hyuk , Kim Min-Beom
Published: December 2023

Ramsay Hunt syndrome occurs when the varicella zoster virus reactivates. Classic findings include the triad of facial paralysis, otic pain and herpetic lesions due to the pathogenesis associated with anterograde axonal reactivation of the varicella zoster virus in the geniculate ganglion. In addition to the classic triad, rare features such as a central type of vestibular function test may be observed due to the retrograde spread of the varicella zoster virus from the geniculate ganglion into the brain stem, including involvement of the vestibular nucleus. We present a case of Ramsay Hunt syndrome in a 57-year-old male patients, manifesting not only the typical triad of symptoms but also the unique features associated with brain stem involvement. This presented as direction-changing gaze-evoked nystagmus and a decrease in gain on both sides on video head impulse test. And brain magnetic resonance imaging showed a lesion in the vestibular nucleus of the brain stem.
Webs of Self, Webs of Meaning. Three Female Fragmentary Portraits in Post-Digital Print Comics
Authors: Moura Pedro
Published: December 2023

The present paper analyses the work of three contemporary, independent women artists active in the Portuguese comics scene: Hetamoé, Joana Mosi, and Ana Margarida Matos. It provides a close formal reading of their work by following Peter Wollen's seminal article on counter-cinema. Despite the caveats of adopting whole cloth and in a clearcut manner notions from different media, there are enough commonalities and narratological features that provide stimulating comparisons. As in cinema, comics also have a broadly accepted normative understanding of comics' way of creating meaning, against which these three authors present what one can call, after Wollen, resisting formal strategies. Portuguese comics have had a troubled history, which entails a difficult economic development and the lack of wider social recognition (as a culturally relevant field). However, its most independent realms and sub-cultures have provided ample proof of engaged, informed, and inventive individual creators. Women creators are no exception to this, and this particular group shows three potentialities of opening up the field, both politically and aesthetically. Moreover, these same de/re/constructive strategies broach issues associated with identity, self-portrait, bodily matters, memory, and the very meaning-making processes at the core of their work. The feminist dimensions of their work, albeit quite varied, allow one to detect intense interpretations of the self and the role of womanhood in a broader process of self-actualization and social life. Thus, I will use Sianne Ngai's notions of "cuteness" and "animatedness" to understand the three author's specific manners of doing so, as depicted and constructed within the medium of comics.
A Womb With a (Political) View: Reclaiming Reproductive Rights in Spanish Feminist Cartoons
Authors: Bettaglio Marina
Published: December 2023

Drawing attention to the ways in which art activism can be mobilized “with the objective of achieving social and or political change” (Serafini, 2018, p. 3), in this article, I attend especially to the image of the womb as a powerful visual metaphor for political intervention. Analyzing the transformative potential of an embodied medium such as political cartoons, the present article focuses on Wombastic, a Tumblr-based initiative organized by the Spanish collective Autoras de Cómic in response to the restrictive abortion bill that the Spanish right-wing Partido Popular approved in the Council of Ministers on December 20, 2013. While right-wing legislators have turned women’s bodies into battlefields in their attempt to reinstate heteropatriarchal gender norms, feminist graphic interventions reclaim the body as a site of resistance to disrupt neoconservative propaganda. Studying the sociopolitical context in which it was launched, this article underlines the connection between the “repoliticization of Spanish social life” (Herrero, 2019, p. 127), and the resurgence of powerful feminist activism, centering on reproductive rights. Steeped in the post 11M social climate, this study reveals the discursive power of political cartoons at a time of renewed politicization of the body, increased social mobilizations, and powerful feminist activism. Socially engaged comics and cartoons such as the ones uploaded to Wombastic display feminist agency, reclaiming women’s creativity and ownership of their own sexuality and reproductive choices.
Análisis del efecto del polvo de roca en el almacenamiento de carbono y las variables fisicoquímicas del suelo en manglares de Guayaquil, Ecuador
Authors: Veintimilla Gómez Harry Enrique , Molina-Moreira Natalia
Published: December 2023

Una manera para reducir los gases de efecto invernadero es potencializar el almacenamiento de carbono (C) en el sedimento del manglar. Sin embargo, la contaminación ambiental no permite que los manglares cumplan su función de almacenamiento óptimo. Un bioestimulante llamado polvo de roca (PR) ayuda a remediar el suelo del manglar añadiendo nutrientes. Se analizó el efecto del polvo de roca en el almacenamiento de C a distintos niveles verticales en el horizonte del suelo del manglar del parque lineal Kennedy Norte en Guayaquil, donde se establecieron cuatro áreas de (25 m × 10 m) 250 m2 y se aplicó 1 kg de PR por cada 10 m2. Para analizar el efecto del PR en el almacenamiento de C, se recolectaron muestras de suelo a tres diferentes profundidades (0 a 0,1; 0,2 a 0,3; 0,4 a 0,5) m, durante 180 días con un periodo de muestreo de 30 días. Se realizó un análisis de varianza ANOVA de una vía, del C en comparación con la profundidad, mediante la prueba de Tukey p<0.05. El C, la MO y el N incrementaron sus porcentajes en las profundidades 1 y 2, a los 90 días de aplicación, y luego se mantuvieron estables. No se registró diferencia significativa del porcentaje del C entre las profundidades 1 y 2. Se puede atribuir el incremento de los porcentajes a la época seca y al PR. En cuanto al pH, se mantuvo en un intervalo constante de valores cercanos a neutro. El NH4 tuvo altas tasas de amonificación. Se observó un comportamiento similar en P y S debido a la descarga de efluentes contaminados y por mayor precipitación.

Purpose of research. GOST P 55276-2012 applied in the Russian Federation does not regulate concrete data on the choice of this or that procedure under various conditions of welding and standard sizes of the applied pipes, leaving it to the discretion of the consumer. Unlike the procedure of the welding with only low pressure which is well fulfilled and widely applied in domestic practice, the welding according to the procedure with the only high pressure allowing to reduce three times time of a welding cycle is practically not used and specially intended welding machines in Russia are not issued. In this regard this work is devoted to development of the modes of hot tool welding of abutting connections of pipes from polyethylene with a diameter from 90 to 315 mm for SDR 13.6 - SDR 9.0 with the only high pressure, to the choice of possible domestic welding equipment and experimental check of the developed modes.

Methods. In this article for butt welding by the heated tool of pipes from polyethylene with a diameter from 90 to 315 mm, using a design technique, main parameters of welding procedure are determined with the only high pressure. When choosing the welding machine necessary for tube welding of the considered range on welding procedure with the only high pressure, by results of the carried-out analysis of technical datas of domestic welding machines and features of their operation capabilities it is preferred as the welding machine with the hydraulic drive "Native of the Volga Region of SSPT-315". For experimental check of the executed payment of parameters of the procedure of welding under the cyclogram with the only high pressure four joints of pipes with a diameter of 110 mm with thickness of a wall of 10 mm from PE-100 (SDR 11.0) have been welded and visual and measuring quality control of the executed connections and short-term tests of technological samples on axial stretching by the R-50 machine is made.

Results. Mechanical tests of technological samples of all joints of the pipes from PE-100 with a diameter of 110 mm (SDR 11.0) executed on the SSPT-315 welding machine on welding procedure with the only high pressure have shown 100% - ny result of plastic nature of destruction at the size of lengthening from 500 to 600%.

Conclusion. The high quality of experimental joints of pipes from PE-100 assumes a possibility of use of the SSPT- 315 machine for hot tool welding of pipes from polyethylene of everything of the range regulated by technical datas on welding procedure with the only high pressure.

emoções e desenvolvimento da personalidade
Authors: Silva Gonçalves Guilherme
Published: December 2023

Os afetos sempre tiveram um foco de atenção especial no trabalho de Carl Gustav Jung. Desde sua pesquisa com os estudos de associação de palavras, de onde nasceu a teoria dos complexos, Jung defendeu a importância dos afetos na constituição da psique, especialmente nas manifestações inconscientes. Da mesma forma, Jaak Panksepp, o pai da neurociência afetiva, demonstrou a importância dos sistemas emocionais primários na organização da personalidade dos seres humanos e afirmou que o sucesso dos processos terapêuticos depende da estimulação desses mesmos sistemas. O presente trabalho teve como objetivo traçar um paralelo entre a importância dos afetos dentro da abordagem junguiana e a teoria dos afetos do neurocientista Jaak Panksepp. Os trabalhos de Jung e de Panksepp deram origem a teorias da personalidade. O teste de personalidade Myers-Brigs Type Indicator – MBTI tem como base a psicologia analítica, enquanto Affective Neuroscience Personality Scale – ANPS foi baseada na neurociência afetiva. Ambas as escalas possuem dimensões que podem ser correlacionadas. Além disso, o psiquiatra Iain McGilchrist observou a relação da linguagem simbólica/metafórica com os sistemas emocionais subcorticais do cérebro e com o hemisfério cerebral direito. McGilchrist também observou que esse tipo de linguagem é mais efetiva em ativar os centros emocionais do cérebro do que a linguagem denotativa. Essas convergências entre a psicologia analítica e a neurociência são evidências de que o material simbólico pode fornecer estímulos afetivos benéficos para o desenvolvimento da personalidade, além de influenciar positivamente na efetividade dos processos terapêuticos.
Effects of Acute Phase Intensive Physical Activity (ACTIVE-PA) Monitoring and Education for Cardiac Patients: Pilot Study of a Randomized Controlled Trial
Authors: Yamashita Masashi , Kamiya Kentaro , Hamazaki Nobuaki , Uchida Shota , Noda Takumi , Maekawa Emi , Ako Junya
Published: December 2023

Background

Although physical activity (PA) decreases dramatically during hospitalization, an effective intervention method has not yet been established for this issue. We recently developed a multiperson PA monitoring system using information and communication technology (ICT) that can provide appropriate management and feedback about PA at the bedside or during rehabilitation. This ICT-based PA monitoring system can store accelerometer data on a tablet device within a few seconds and automatically display a graphical representation of activity trends during hospitalization.

Objective

This randomized pilot study aims to estimate the feasibility and effect size of an educational PA intervention using our ICT monitoring system for in-hospital patients undergoing cardiac rehabilitation.

Methods

A total of 41 patients (median age 70 years; 24 men) undergoing inpatient cardiac rehabilitation were randomly assigned to 2 groups as follows: wearing an accelerometer only (control) and using both an accelerometer and an ICT-based PA monitoring system. Patients assigned to the ICT group were instructed to gradually increase their step counts according to their conditions. Adherence to wearing the accelerometer was defined as having enough wear records for at least 2 days to allow for adequate analysis during the lending period. An analysis of covariance was performed to compare the change in average step count during hospitalization as a primary outcome and the 6-minute walking distance at discharge.

Results

The median duration of wearing the accelerometer was 4 days in the ICT group and 6 days in the control group. Adherence was 100% (n=22) in the ICT group but 83% (n=20) in the control group. The ICT group was more active (mean difference=1370 steps, 95% CI 437-2303) and had longer 6-minute walking distances (mean difference=81.6 m, 95% CI 18.1-145.2) than the control group.

Conclusions

Through this study, the possibility of introducing a multiperson PA monitoring system in a hospital and promoting PA during hospitalization was demonstrated. These findings support the rationale and feasibility of a future clinical trial to test the efficacy of this educational intervention in improving the PA and physical function of in-hospital patients.

Published: December 2023

При проведенні атестаційного іспиту, коли є брак часу і участь хворого в контролі оволодіння практичними навичками стає малореальною, особливого значення набувають клінічні ситуаційні задачі. Метою роботи було розглянути процес складання клінічної ситуаційної задачі на циклі «Спеціалізації з рефлексотерапії» з метою його оптимізіції. Щоб максимально відповідати меті атестації, клінічна ситуаційна задача повинна мати певну структуру: найбільш доцільно, щоб це був витяг з історії хвороби реального хворого, який отримував комплексне лікування з включенням методів рефлексотерапії. Клінічна ситуаційна задача має бути складена так, щоб питання її були максимально наближені до реальних і дозволяли, насамперед, чітко підійти до встановлення певного акупунктурного діагнозу, виходячи з тих теоретичних знань, які слухач отримав на кафедрі, під час відвідування лекцій, практичних, семінарських занять, здійснення самостійної роботи. Також важливо, щоб умови клінічної ситуаційної задачі були максимально наближені до реального діагностичного і лікувально процесів, що мають певні часові характеристики. Висновки. 1. Клінічні ситуаційні задачі мають позитивну роль у практичній підготовці майбутнього лікаря-рефлексотерапевта. 2. Клінічні ситуаційні задачі розширяють загально-клінічний світогляд лікаря

Published: December 2023

Infertility due to poor sperm quality is a common problem nowadays, particularly in developed countries. Herbs are one of the natural treatment options that have been proposed. Phyllanthus gomphocarpus Hook. F is a tropical plant that has traditionally been used in Malaysia to treat male infertility. Antioxidant characterization of its root aqueous extraction was performed using ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP), 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), total phenolic content (TPC), and total flavonoid content (TFC). Male rats were administered two different concentrations of the extract orally along with BPA for 21 days, and their sperm was evaluated using Computer-Assisted-Sperm-Analysis (CASA). The results showed that this plant has a high antioxidant capacity, with 78.6 ± 0.65 %, 0.14 ± 0.01 mg/ml, 28.52 ± 0.13 mg GAE/g and 164.73 ± 23.13 mg QE/g, for DPPH, FRAP, TPC and TFC respectively. The ability of this plant to enhance sperm concentration, motility, velocity, progression ratio, elongation, and percentages of normal sperm morphology significantly with p<0.05, appears to be due to its high antioxidant capacity. Furthermore, this plant was found to have sperm-protective effects against the endocrine disruptor BPA. A thorough investigation is required to determine the full mechanism of this plant's beneficial effects on male fertility and human health.

Published: December 2023

Objective: This research was conducted to screen the anticancer activity of bitter herbs that contains Andrographis paniculata (Brum. f) leaves (AP) and Tinospora crispa L. stems (TC) in form of fresh materials and extracts using a mechanism-based yeast bioassay.

Methods: Samples tested by mechanism-based yeast bioassay (MBYB) were single extract, mixed extract, and jamu gendong pahitan from a traditional market and made in the laboratory. Fresh sample of jamu gendong pahitan from the market and a single extract (AP and TC) was tested at one dose. While fresh jamu gendong pahitan made in the laboratory and the mixed extract (AP: TC) was tested at three different doses, doses 1 (3:10), dose 2 (1:1), and dose 3 (10:3). The leaves and stems were extracted by 70% ethanol for 3x24 h, each day the solvent was changed then every macerate was evaporated using a rotavapor and water bath. By this MBYB method, noted that the active sample must have an IC12 value of<8000µg/ml, so all the samples or doses were tested using final concentration varying at around 8,000; 4,000; 2,000; 1,000; 500, 250, and 125µg/ml.

Results: The percentage yield of Andrographis paniculata (Brum. f) leaves was 11.2% and Tinospora crispa L. stems was 19.%. The activity assay for jamu gendong pahitan from the traditional market was inactive as a topoisomerase inhibitor (IC12>8000µg/ml). Samples showed topoisomerase I inhibitor activity were jamu gendong pahitan made in laboratory doses 1 and 2. While samples showed topoisomerase I and II inhibitor activities were jamu gendong pahitan made in laboratory dose 3, single and mixed extracts.

Conclusion: The fresh material of jamu gendong pahitan (bitter herbs) bought from the market is inactive, while the fresh material of samples of jamu gendong pahitan made in laboratory doses 1 and 2 have topoisomerase I inhibitor activity. Based on the IC12, value, it is known that the sample that gave the best activity was the mixed extract of bitter herbs dose 3 that contain extract of A. paniculata and T. crispa (10:3), with IC12 values in strains 1138, 1140, and 1353 were 926.28±173, 576.75±42, and 865.5±135µg/ml respectively.

Abstract: An image steganographic scheme is one kind of steganographic systems, where the secret message is hidden in a digital image with some hiding method. Someone can then use a proper embedding procedure to recover the hidden message from the image. The original image is called a cover image in steganography, and the message-embedded image is called a stego image. This Steganography technique is more popular in recent year than other steganography possibly because of the flood of electronic image information available with the advent of digital cameras and high-speed internet distribution. It can involve hiding information in the naturally occurred noise within the image. In this paper we provide a review on various image steganography techniques.

Authors: Crysty Lourena  , Septiani Alya Rahma , Febrinasari Ratih Puspita
Published: December 2023

Background: Kasus Stunting di Indonesia menurut SSGI (Survei Status Gizi Indonesia) mencapai 21,6%, dan pada Kabupaten Boyolali sebesar 20,0%, angka tersebut masih diatas angka target penurunan stunting tahun 2024 yaitu sebesar 14%. Kegiatan ini bertujuan menggali penyebab, mencari alternatif, dan mencegah masalah stunting di Kecamatan Klego, Kabupaten Boyolali, Jawa Tengah. Metode: pencegahan stunting ini dilakukan dengan metode ceramah oleh pemangku kebijakan, Dinas BKKBN, kecamatan, desa, bidan, ahli gizi, PLKB, dari dinas pertanian, dan bagian PKH Kecamatan. Hasil: Belum tercapainya beberapa indikator intervensi, yaitu bayi tidak mendapatkan ASI eksklusif, pendampingan pada keluarga berisiko stunting, dan persentase pelayanan keluarga berencana (KB) pasca persalinan. Tidak tercapainya angka ASI Eksklusif karena sebagian besar ibu bekerja, sehingga bayi dirawat oleh orang lain.

Establishing the Age of the Latvian Debitive Mood: the Evidence of Latgalian
Authors: Fries Simon , Hill Eugen
Published: December 2023

This article attempts to determine the age of the Latvian debitive mood with the help of a systematic investigation of its attestation in Latgalian, the variety of High Latvian dialects spoken in Latgale. While the debitive in older Standard and Central Latvian sources has been studied extensively, the debitive in older Latgalian sources has not met with equivalent interest yet. It is against this backdrop that, for the first time, the present article seeks to provide a systematic historical survey of the debitive as attested in 18th and 19th-century Latgalian sources. This survey will show that the debitive is well-attested in Latgalian since the very beginning of its written record, and that it has most likely always constituted a genuine part of Latgalian morphosyntax. As Latgalian developed free from Standard/Central Latvian influence up until the 20th century, these findings have major implications for establishing the age of the debitive: the cooccurrence of the debitive in Latgalian and Central/Standard Latvian suggests that the debitive is a shared innovation of the Latvian dialects dating back to Proto-Latvian times.

Published: December 2023

Straipsnis skirtas Pauliaus Venecijiečio Logica parva XV a. nuoraše užfiksuoto baltiškojo intarpo, arba Kretos pėdsako, filologinei analizei.

Remiantis detaliu intarpo tyrimu, apibendrinama, kad tekste nesama jokių ypatingų ortografijos ar gramatinių klaidų, o jo prasmė niekaip nesusijusi su senąja baltų kultūra, bet implikuoja krikščioniškųjų dogmų naratyvą.

Published: December 2023

Os medicamentos podem ocasionar sérios problemas ambientais quando descartados de maneira imprópria, trazendo inúmeros impactos ambientais e de saúde pública. Desta forma, este trabalho buscou verificar as práticas adotadas no processo de gestão municipal e avaliar o grau de conhecimento e de sensibilização da população sobre resíduos de medicamentos, bem como o nível da importância dado ao assunto. Após o levantamento bibliográfico sobre o tema, foram distribuídos 100 questionários em dois pontos no município de Barra do Rio Azul, onde é feita a distribuição de medicamentos. Esse questionário auto aplicado continha 7 (sete) questões abertas e fechadas, ficando à disposição dos interessados por um período de 7 (sete) dias. Os resultados desta pesquisa revelam que grande parte da população costuma descartar os resíduos de medicamentos de forma incorreta, mas demonstra ciência de que os medicamentos mereçam um descarte especial. A sensibilização da população é de extrema importância para contribuir com um meio ambiente mais sustentável. Isso poderia ser atingido através de práticas educativas/informativas integradas à gestão pública do município.

(Un)translatable Identities: Dialogic Monolingualism in Wong Bik-wan’s ‘Nausea’ 
Authors: Wong Yee Kwan
Published: December 2023

Colonial Hong Kong (1842-1997) was a multilingual, multicultural ‘migrant society’, and its identity is complex and intersectional. Based on a close reading of Wong Bik-wan’s ‘Nausea’ (1994), this essay discusses how characters from drastically different backgrounds encounter one another in the multicultural space of Hong Kong. These two characters, a Black-Asian biracial woman and a native Hong Kong Chinese man suffered various forms of oppression, geographical dislocation, and political alienation in the postcolonial world. This created a mysterious bond between them, and as the narrative unfolds, the male character gradually contracted the woman’s disease of nausea. A dialogism of empathy emerged, as the characters experience each other’s trauma intersubjectively. At the same time, ‘Nausea’ simultaneously dialogs with Jean-Paul Sartre’s La Nausée (1938) through possessing the voice of the Sartean hero while also injecting the voices of a female character/author. This results in a literary double-voicedness, which in turn animates the text’s own deterritorialization and puts Hong Kong literature in dialog with a wider literary discourse of existentialism. Ultimately, the dynamic processes of sense-making and emotive exchanges in ‘Nausea’ resembles ‘untranslation’, defined as the interminable process of translation between incommensurable languages.
A Companion to Where Else, Hong Kong Literature’s newest addition; interviews with contributors
Authors: Chung Elizabeth E.
Published: December 2023

Given the growing interest in Hong Kong and the region’s literature which provides insight into the experiences of one of Britain’s last colonies, Ms Elizabeth E. Chung interviewed editors for and contributors to the new Where Else: An International Hong Kong Poetry Anthology in the summer of 2023. In total, ten interviews took place in-person, online, or via email, covering a range of topics including the creative and critical contexts of the anthology and the creative methods employed by poets and artists, as well as the future expectations from this publication. The ensuing interviews (of which the contributor interviews are included here) result in a companion to the anthology: a revelatory insight into the transnational attention to Hong Kong, its history, and its future.
Biebrza hydrosocial landscape. Analysis of environmental discourses in the largest Polish national park
Authors: Kozhevnikova Magdalena
Published: December 2023

The author analyzes narratives about the environment in the largest national park in Poland. She attempts to present the socio-cultural aspect of water in Podlasie, based on the concept of the hydrosocial cycle as interpreted by Jamie Linton and Jessica Budds, yet extending it to the non-human world. In the Biebrza Valley there are many different environmental discourses, as well as conflicts related to the different perception of nature - human relationship. Two of them are dominant: the discourse of the employees and experts of the Biebrza National Park ("institutional") and that of the dissatisfied inhabitants ("agricultural"). The author moves away from the knowledge relativism traditional for ethnography.
