Approach for social media content-based analysis for vacation resorts
Authors: Sulova Snezhana , Bankov Boris
Published: September 2019

The impact of social networks on our liveskeeps increasing because they provide content,generated and controlled by users, that is constantly evolving. They aid us in spreading news, statements, ideas and comments very quickly. Social platforms are currently one of the richest sources of customer feedback on a variety of topics. A topic that is frequently discussed is the resort and holiday villages and the tourist services offered there. Customer comments are valuable to both travel planners and tour operators. The accumulation of opinions in the web space is a prerequisite for using and applying appropriate tools for their computer processing and for extracting useful knowledge from them. While working with unstructured data, such as social media messages, there isn’t a universal text processing algorithm because each social network and its resources have their own characteristics. In this article, we propose a new approach for an automated analysis of a static set of historical data of user messages about holiday and vacation resorts, published on Twitter. The approach is based on natural language processing techniques and the application of machine learning methods. The experiments are conducted using softwareproduct RapidMiner.
Ras dan Homoseksualitas: Gagasan James Baldwin dalam Another Country
Authors: Prabasmoro Tisna , Budhiyono Rasus
Published: September 2019

Penelitian ini mencoba untuk ikut menyumbangkan gagasan-gagasan pada diskusi tentang isu-isu ras dan homoseksualitas yang pelik di Amerika Serikat pada tahun 1960-an. Agar dapat mendekati permasalahan yang kompleks ini, penelitian membahas novel karangan James Baldwin berjudul Another Country, yang menantang supremasi kulit putih dengan pemikiran-pemikirannya perihal identitas pribadi dan sosial. Pada penelitian ini Another Country dimanfaatkan untuk menunjukkan pentingnya pemikiran-pemikiran Baldwin tentang identitas personal dan sosial, berkaitan dengan pengenalan dam pengakuan diri seseorang sebagai manusia, yang menjadi lokus pendukung perubahan sosial yang diperlukan untuk terciptanya keselarasan hubungan-hubungan di Amerika Serikat. Penelitian ini mencoba untuk menganalisis kehidupan dan karya Balwin terhadap perkembangan politik pada masanya, dan dengan meminjam konsep-konsep identitas,  untuk menunjukkan bagaimana dikotomi warga berkulit putih dan hitam adalah pengalaman-pengalaman hidup Baldwin yang paling mengganggu, namun bermakna. Penelitian ini juga pada akhirnya menunjukkan bahwa dengan mempelajari Baldwin sebagai individu dan anggota masyarakat, kita dapat menafsirkan eksistensi dan ekstensi dikotomi yang tidak berterima tersebut: keunggulan warga berkulit putih disamakan dengan keumuman heteroseksualitas dan kemarjinalan warga berkulit hitam dengan keterasingan homoseksualitas.

Published: September 2019

The palm oil (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is widely produced in the Brazilian Amazon region; however, the expansion of its cultivation to other environments is mandatory to attend the increasing demand of the industry, especially in the food and biodiesel fields. This study aimed to analyze the lipid profile and physicochemical characteristics of crude palm oil obtained from different palm genotypes cultivated in Goiana-PE, Northeast of Brazil. All genotypes showed high oil yield (> 60%). Lipid profile showed that the palmitic and linoleic acids were predominant in the oil (about 80%). Iodine and saponification index ranged from 50.2 to 55.3g I2.100 g-1 and 184.3 to 185.4 mg KOH.g-1 of oil, respectively. Saponification and iodine levels also showed similar values among the studied genotypes. Acid and peroxide indexes presented values within the National Health Surveillance Agency (ANVISA). BRS C7201 genotype presented more attractive and viable results for its cultivation and development in the studied area.
Managing Information Flow in Self-Organising Networks of Communication Between Construction Project Participants
Authors: Radziszewska-Zielina E. , Śladowski G. , Kania E. , Sroka B. , Szewczyk B.
Published: September 2019

Construction projects are characterised by complexity in the technical, organisational and environmental sphere. The organisational complexity of such projects makes it necessary to manage relationships between actors who fulfil various functions. Formal organisational structures that have been developed for this purpose do not always reflect the actual relationships between construction project participants. In literature, scholars more and more often point to the need to identify and monitor such informal relationships and attempt to manage them in order to effectively carry out projects. Structural analysis of so-called self-organising networks of relationships between project participants is carried out on the basis of established structural measures by performing Social Network Analysis (SNA). In a situation when inappropriate communication between project participants relative to management staff expectations is detected, interventions meant to improve communication in such networks are possible. The goal of the article is proposing an optimisation-oriented approach to planning such interventions while taking various constraints, such as communication costs, into consideration. As a part of this optimisation, the authors proposed a method from the heuristic methods group. This solution will support decision-making in terms of intervening within an informal relationship structure. The method was presented on the example of an actual construction project involving the construction of a complex of housing buildings. the self-organising network structure was defined on the basis of a survey carried out among the project’s participants and concerned communication between them over a four-week period. As a result of the structural network analysis, abnormalities in communication between project participants were detected. The optimisation method developed by the authors pointed to possibilities of improving communication effectiveness within this network. The effects of the analysis confirmed the application potential of the method that was presented.
Evaluation of Hot-Mix Asphalt Containing Portland Cement Treated Blast Furnace Slag
Authors: Rondón-Quintana H. A. , Ruge-Cardenas J. C. , Bastidas-Martínez J. G.
Published: September 2019

Iron production’s waste materials include significant quantities of blast furnace slag (BFS) which could potentially be used as a substitute for natural aggregates in hot mix asphalt (HMA) used in highway projects. Although many of properties of slag are interesting, its porosity and absorption rate would lead to greater consumption of asphalt. For this study, a Portland cement (PC) paste was used to reduce the porosity of a BFS. This PC treated BFS (called BFS-C) was then used in an HMA to replace the coarse fraction of a natural aggregate. Marshall, Indirect Tensile Strength (ITS), resilient modulus and Cantabro tests were then carried out on different HMA mixtures that included BFS-C. Using BFS-C, HMA’s resistance under monotonic loading, stiffness under cyclic loading, and resistance to moisture damage increased remarkably. In addition, the Cantabro abrasion resistance of BFS-C improved was better than that of the HMA mixture produced with untreated BFS.
Performance Evaluation on Selection of Formwork Systems in High Rise Buildings Using Regression Analysis and Their Impacts on Project Success
Authors: Rajeshkumar Viswanathan , Sreevidya V.
Published: September 2019

The selection of the formwork system for high rise building affects the entire construction project duration and cost. The study reports the factors influencing the selection of different formwork system in the construction of high rise buildings through structural questionnaire survey from the client, contractor, consultant, and interviews with expert members. Total of 40 technical factors was identified from the literature and 220 filled questionnaires were received from the respondent. Relative Importance Index method is used to find the topmost factors affecting the selection of formwork system. Additionally, from factor analysis 22 factors were identified to have a correlation with one another. Regression analysis reveals that duration of the project, maintenance cost, adaptability, and safety have impact on formwork selection across time, cost and quality. These findings could potentially increase the construction company’s existing knowledge in relation to formwork selection.

Unemployment Impact of Product and Labor Market Regulation: Evidence from European Countries
Authors: Piton Céline , Rycx François
Published: September 2019

This paper provides robust estimates of the impact of both product and labor market regulations on unemployment using data from 24 European countries over the period 1998–2013. Controlling for country fixed effects, endogeneity, and a large set of covariates, results show that product market deregulation overall reduces the unemployment rate. This finding is robust across all specifications and in line with theoretical predictions. However, not all types of reforms have the same effect: deregulation of state controls and in particular involvement in business operations tend to push up the unemployment rate. Labor market deregulation, proxied by the employment protection legislation index, is detrimental to unemployment in the short run, while a positive impact (i.e., a reduction in the unemployment rate) occurs only in the long run. Analysis by sub-indicators shows that reducing protection against collective dismissals helps in reducing the unemployment rate. The unemployment rate equation is also estimated for different categories of workers. Although men and women are equally affected by product and labor market deregulations, workers distinguished by age and educational attainment are affected differently. In terms of employment protection, young workers are almost twice as strongly affected as older workers. Regarding product market deregulation, highly educated individuals are less impacted than low- and middle-educated workers.
Risk Analysis in Managerial Process and Fuzzy Approach
Authors: Boc Kamil , Vaculík Juraj , Vidriková Dagmar
Published: September 2019

One of the most important steps in managerial process is the risk analysis. While various methods for conducting the risk analysis exist, in certain conditions only subjective qualitative approach can be used. The typical reason is the lack of input quantitative data. Methods of fuzzy logic can provide a convenient way to conduct risk analyses. The article describes an application of fuzzy logic and fuzzy approach into risk analyses and into risk management process. All needed requirements for using this approach are described. The main advantage of using fuzzy approach is limitation of subjectivity in risk assessment. That can provide basis for regular repeating of risk analyses thus, efficient control system can be created instead of formal occasional risk analyses. Article also describes recommended modification of threat identification process to maximize mutual effect when applied together with this kind of risk analyses.
How Similar are Pharmacy Students and White Blood Cells? Curricular Content Reinforced Through Personification
Authors: Ware Kenric
Published: September 2019

Description: This initiative sought to evaluate the use of personification to reinforce immunology concepts among pharmacy students.  A two-part question posed to first year pharmacy students asked if they could physically become two white blood cells (WBCs), which would they choose and why. Students received instruction in immunology prior to providing their feedback. Demographics included campus of enrollment and gender designation. Student ratings 1 to 5 reflected approval levels toward this activity’s usefulness (1: least; 5 most).

Key Findings: One hundred and ten of 117 students selected two WBCs they would physically become if possible (94%). Less than two-thirds of students were female (63%) and the Columbia campus featured approximately a quarter of the students (24%). The most and least common WBCs chosen, as first selections by campus and gender, were statistically significant being neutrophils and basophils, lymphocytes and eosinophils, respectively. The median approval values of the WBC personification activity by campus and gender were similar and did not reach statistical significance, 4.5 and 5, respectively.

Conclusion: Pharmacy students commended the personification activity for helping them learn the roles and responsibilities of WBCs. Unique and insightful rationales for the choices made for WBCs persisted among the students. In light of these favorable reviews, this type of activity can be adapted to other areas of pharmacy education.

Authors: Girolami Antonio , Rolland Catherine , Sexton Dan , Vardi Moshe , Bernstein Jonathan A.
Published: September 2019

Background: Hereditary prekallikrein (Fletcher factor) deficiency is a rare condition characterized by a prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time. Inhibitors of plasma kallikrein have recently been approved for prophylaxis of hereditary angioedema and are under investigation for use in other indications.Objective: We attempted to conservatively assess the impact of long-term inhibition of this pathway by reviewing reportedcomorbidities in patients with hereditary prekallikrein deficiency.Methods: We searched several medical literature databases for publications that reported data from patients with hereditaryprekallikrein deficiency (<10% of normal and/or shortening of activated partial thromboplastin time on increased incubationtime). Data reporting of cardiovascular, bleeding, and autoimmune-related diseases were extracted.Results: Of 1966 publications screened, 45 publications (which represented 53 patients with prekallikrein deficiency) wereincluded. Among 53 identified patients with prekallikrein deficiency, 25 were explicitly defined as asymptomatic, with no comorbidities mentioned in another three cases. Another 16 of the 53 patients were described as having undergone surgery or dental extractions with no complications. Cardiovascular comorbidities were reported in 19 patients, mainly hypertension (9 patients) and cerebrovascular ischemia or stroke (5 patients). Excessive bleeding episodes after surgery were reported in four patients. Autoimmune-related diseases were reported for three patients (two with Graves disease and onewith systemic lupus erythematosus).Conclusion: This review identified patients with hereditary prekallikrein deficiency who reported a spectrum of health outcomes from asymptomatic to infrequent reports of cardiovascular, bleeding, and autoimmune comorbidities. The majority of the reports did not indicate any association between prekallikrein deficiency and comorbidities; however, additional observation is required to confirm the long-term safety of plasma kallikrein inhibition.
Biologic targeted therapy in allergic asthma
Authors: Kron Kevin , Crow Mason J. , Olyaei Ali , Montanaro Anthony
Published: September 2019

Background: Asthma is a heterogeneous inflammatory disease of the airway, characterized by airway hyperresponsiveness, airway obstruction, mucus hyperproduction, and airway-wall remodeling. Management of this disease involves the use of several types of therapeutic agents,
each with unique indications based on the underlying cause of inflammation, clinical severity, and patient phenotype and/or endotype. Objective: A review of the function, clinical utility, and safety of biologic agents in the management of allergic asthma. This particular
asthma phenotype involves multiple cytokines in its pathogenesis, specifically those secreted by T-helper type 2 cells. Methods: Medical literature was obtained from online biomedical archive searches from July 2018 to May 2019. An emphasis was placed on clinical trials
that discussed biologic agents that target immunoglobulin E, interleukin (IL) 5, IL-4/IL-13, and chemoattractant receptor-homologous molecule expressed on Th2 cells (CRTh2) pathways involved in the expression of allergic asthma. Results: The treatment options reviewed in
this article were shown to be effective in targeting these pathways associated with allergic asthma. However, because these biologic agents are commonly prescribed in the treatment of severe asthma, many patients continue to experience asthma signs and symptoms. Conclusion:
Future clinical trials that study these agents should focus on ideal patient selection, dosing regimens, and cost-effectiveness in the management of asthma. Ideally, comparative trials should be undertaken to assist the clinician in choosing the optimal agent.

Authors: Kuswati Kuswati , Handayani Rohmi
Published: September 2019

Dates are a good source of nutrition for the body if consumed regularly both in the form of dried fruit, wet, as well as in the form of palm juice extracts, especially for pregnant and maternal mothers. Pregnant women who are going to give birth are in desperate need of drinks and foods that are rich in sugar, this is because of the many contractions of the uterine muscles when it comes to removing the baby, especially if it takes a long time. Dates contain potuchin hormone which functions to bind the uterus and muscles of the uterus so that it can help reduce postpartum bleeding. Besides, there is the hormone oxytocin which can help stimulate contractions in the muscles of the uterus so as to facilitate labor. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of consumption of dates on bleeding, length of labor and type of labor. This type of research is a Pre experiment with a post-test Only Control Group Design research design. The population in this study were all pregnant women in the working area of South Klaten Public Health Center with estimated deliveries from July to September 2018. While the sample size was 60 samples consisting of 30 treatment group respondents and 30 control group respondents. The sampling technique used in this study was Quota sampling. Data analysis using Fisher Exact test and Mann-Whitney U test with p-value considered significant is p = 0.05. The results of the study of bleeding showed that there were no significant differences in the estimation of blood loss and during labor and type of delivery between the treatment group and the control group (p-value = 0.5). The results of the study about the length of labor showed that there was an effect of date consumption on the length of labor, with a value of p = 0,000

Typhoid fever is one of the infectious diseases which can cause many problems in Indonesia and other developing countries. This fever occurs as a result of infections triggered by Salmonella typhi bacteria. The growth of Salmonella typhi can be inhibited using antibiotics. This study aims at investigating whether there is a difference in the sensitivity test of  Salmonella typhi bacteria in an isolate of patients with typhoid fever and pure culture in a laboratory on some antibiotics.Salmonella typhi bacteria were isolated typhoid fever suspects at one of the hospitals in Surakarta. Pure cultures of Salmonella typhi bacteria were obtained from Microbiological Laboratory of Setia Budi University. Sensitivity test of antibiotics on Salmonella typhi bacteria used diffusion method. Data on antibiotics of inhibition zone diameter (mm) of antibiotics were analyzed statistically using the Two-Way Anova test.The research results demonstrate that the sensitivity test on Salmonella typhi bacteria in an isolate of patients with typhoid fever shows resistance (R) towards amoxicillin and sensitivity (S) towards trimethoprim, chloramphenicol, gentamicin, ciprofloxacin. Meanwhile, pure culture shows sensitivity (S) towards trimethoprim, chloramphenicol, gentamicin, amoxicillin, ciprofloxacin. The diameter of the inhibition zone of the patient isolate is smaller than that of pure culture.

Integration of geostatistical realizations in data assimilation and reduction of uncertainty process using genetic algorithm combined with multi-start simulated annealing
Authors: Maschio Célio , Schiozer Denis José
Published: September 2019

This paper introduces a new methodology, combining a Genetic Algorithm (GA) with multi-start simulated annealing to integrate Geostatistical Realizations (GR) in data assimilation and uncertainty reduction process. The proposed approach, named Genetic Algorithm with Multi-Start Simulated Annealing (GAMSSA), comprises two parts. The first part consists of running a GA several times, starting with certain number of geostatistical realizations, and the second part consists of running the Multi-Start Simulated Annealing with Geostatistical Realizations (MSSAGR). After each execution of GA, the best individuals of each generation are selected and used as starting point to the MSSAGR. To preserve the diversity of the geostatistical realizations, a rule is imposed to guarantee that a given realization is not repeated among the selected individuals from the GA. This ensures that each Simulated Annealing (SA) process starts from a different GR. Each SA process is responsible for local improvement of the best individuals by performing local perturbation in other reservoir properties such as relative permeability, water-oil contact, etc. The proposed methodology was applied to a complex benchmark case (UNISIM-I-H) based on the Namorado Field, located in the Campos Basin, Brazil, with 500 geostatistical realizations and other 22 attributes comprising relative permeability, oil-water contact, and rock compressibility. Comparisons with a conventional GA algorithm are also shown. The proposed method was able to find multiple solutions while preserving the diversity of the geostatistical realizations and the variability of the other attributes. The matched models found by the GAMSSA method provided more reliable forecasts when compared with the matched models found by the GA.
Organic matter in rock–water systems of petroliferous basins: interrelationships (a case study: South Caspian Basin)
Authors: Feyzullayev Akper A. , Lerche Ian
Published: September 2019

Generalizations and analyses are given of the data accumulated to date on the content of Organic Matter (OM) in formation waters of various stratigraphic complexes, as well as of mud volcanoes, and the correlation with OM in South Caspian Basin (SCB) sedimentary rocks. Results are based on about 300 analyses of formation waters and waters of mud volcanoes, as well as on more than 400 analyses of the content of OM in rocks (outcrops and wells from both onshore and offshore petroleum fields of the SCB). The stratigraphic interval covers the period from the Lower Pliocene to the Jurassic, and the depth interval from 73 m to 6043 m. In these intervals, the values of Dissolved Organic Matter (DOM) in reservoir waters vary from 4.1 mg/L to 271.2 mg/L, averaging (219 analyses) 48.9 mg/L. A good correlation has been established between the values of DOM and OM in rocks. Paleogene and Jurassic rocks have the highest correlations. DOM varies with depth with an increase in value from a depth of about 3.3 km, likely due to catagenetic transformation of OM into hydrocarbons in the rock–water system. The highest values of DOM are for waters with mineralization less than 50 g/L. Mud volcano waters are characterized by low levels of DOM and low mineralization, likely due to the condensate nature. The results of the studies show that underground water, as one of the components of a single rock–water system of the Earth’s sedimentary cover, together with the rocks, participates in the processes of hydrocarbon generation and migration.
Infographic as a Type of Publicistic Text: Author’s Position
Authors: Vyrovtseva E. V. , Simakova S. I.
Published: September 2019

Purpose. Revealing the basic ways of creation of publicistic image and defining the means of expression of author’s position in this popular type of media text after the analysis of publications on the web-site “TASS. Infographic”.
Results. Publicism as the most demanded type of art in native mass media and developing during three centuries faces now the challenges of the 21st century. Abilities of publicistic perception of reality based upon the dialectic interaction of a fact and an image, a standard and expression, an active dialogue between an author and an addressee which leads to co-creativity, preserved and developed traditions in contemporary media. Evolution of digital and multimedia technologies, informational globalization on all the levels of mass communication, content visualization – all those demanded a search for new formats and genres from the authors of journalistic works. The transformation touched both communication channels and text formation principles with the problem of author being especially acute; his “death” was announced by post-modernists and he seems to have no place in the infinite flow of news generated with the help of new technologies. Remaining a high unit of communication, publicistic text changes under the influence of various tendencies: development of news journalism and personification of media text; visualization and digitalization; convergence and diversification. Infographic became the most convincing and effective response to the challenges of the new age. The main research methods are textual, discursive and cognitive analysis as well as case-method.
Conclusion. As the result of the analysis the following conclusion has been drawn: infographic as a convenient format of “package” of a large informational volume is developing towards publicism; the author’s role enhanced in this kind of multimedia text is supported by such tendencies as “visual turn” and personification of journalistic text.
Historical Documentary Game as a Modern Mass Media Product
Authors: Markasov M. Yu. , Markasova O. A.
Published: September 2019

Purpose. The article is devoted to the consideration of narrative media strategies for creating a longread of historical themes in the Russian Internet space. We are talking about the documentary-gaming network resources of Mikhail Zygar – “1917. Free history” and “Map of history”.
Results. It is concluded that history is in many respects an object, which is almost endless material for various “experiments with formats”. The article presents the different views of researchers on the nature and modern mechanisms of mediastoritelling. It is noted that the game focuses the reader-user on the immersive nature of the historical Internet product: describes such ways to attract the addressee's attention, such as animation, infographics, reception “past in the present” – social networks become the mechanism of narrative explication of historical events. The materials of the “Map of History” are considered separately from the point of view of their compositional construction.
Conclusion. It is argued that the authors of the project have created a complex and interesting rhizomatic mass media product, which can be perceived simultaneously as historical evidence, an exciting documentary game, and a journalistic longread, and an artistic text.
The Discussion about the European Experience in Deliberation Judicial Reform in the Russian Magazines (1857–1864)
Authors: Adoneva I. G.
Published: September 2019

Purpose. Analyzed articles about past and present European of justice, published in the periodical socio-political (“Russian Gerald”, “Domestic notes”, “Contemporary”) and departmental (magazines published by ministries) publications in 1857–1864 in the context of discussions on judicial reform.
Results. A total of 43 texts on the past and present of European justice were identified, which belong to 25 authors. The authors identify as professors of low and civil servants. At the heart of their professional worldview was the state-historical school of law, so they revealed through the press its values. Refined of the most discussed topics: the organization of local justice, advocacy and jury. There is a discussion between the supporters of the English and French justice systems, their argumentation is considered. Supporters of the English judicial system argued that England is not as similar to Europe as Russia, so its experience may be interesting. But they stressed that the judicial institutions of England are very closely connected with its specific history and culture. Adherents of the French model of justice found positive its organization, uniformity and high educational level for judicial officials and lawyers. They also pointed out that in the countries of continental Europe, where justice has been reformed in the French model, it is functioning successfully. Proved the dependence between the final orientation of the printing on the French model and the assumption of office of Minister of justice D. N. Zamyatnin.
Conclusion. It is emphasized that, in addition to respect for the judicial systems of European countries, there were skeptical judgments about the use of these samples in the Russian Empire.
Rethinking Journalism Education in the Context of Visual Thinking
Authors: Ershov Yu. M.
Published: September 2019

Purpose. The review substantiates the need for visual literacy and training students in recognizing fake photos or videos, as well as enhancing students’ critical thinking. The analytical review examines the problems of media education related to the advanced development of digital tools for creating images and the growing visualization of the information space that changes journalistic practices and professional consciousness.
Results. After a number of expert interviews with lecturers of journalism departments, the author comes to understand the gap between the requirements of media practice and the response to these requests from educational centers. Due to the conservatism of the university environment and the dominance of the faculties of journalism of the philological school with its logo-centrism, data visualization is still perceived as a tribute to popular culture, something secondary and optional in relation to the text. Even employees of the best editorial offices in the world recognize the lack of experts and managers for visualization and infographics.
Conclusion. The conclusion is made about the possibility of a “visual coup” in the modernized educational programs in with a clear interest in this media corporations and government customers.

In this retrospective observational study, 58 patients were referred for an magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) by the orthopedic surgeon to the radiology department over a period of 1½ years. All patients gave a history of strength training exercises and presented with clinical features of rotator cuff impingement.

Results:

We identified features of hypertrophy of rotator cuff muscles, myotendons, and tendons in 12 of these 58 patients. This was the only abnormality on MRI. The hypertrophy of rotator cuff muscles and tendon bulk completely filling the subacromial space to the point of overfilling and resulting in secondary compressive features.

Conclusion:

Rotator cuff impingement is a common phenomenon that can occur with various inlet and outlet pathological conditions. However, rotator cuff impingement may also result from muscle and tendon hypertrophy from strength training regimens. Hypertrophy of the rotator cuff can result in overfilling of the subacromial space, leading to secondary impingement, which we have termed as “pseudo-impingement.”
Pseudotumor of Hand Foreign Body Granuloma

Foreign body granuloma develops following a skin penetrating injury with retention of a foreign body, which subsequently causes a reactive inflammatory granulation tissue around it. It can mimic as a pseudotumor; hence, its early detection and diagnosis with imaging can help in its management and prevent further complications. We report a 10-year-old boy with swelling on the dorsum of the hand causing scalloping of the 3rd metacarpal presenting as pseudotumor and was confirmed to be a foreign body (thorn) granuloma on ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The characteristic appearance of foreign body in soft tissue on ultrasound is an echogenic structure giving posterior acoustic shadowing, and on MRI it typically appears as a low signal intensity structure on T1- and T2-weighted images with peripheral ring enhancement. Hence, the possibility of a foreign body granuloma should be ruled out in cases of suspected soft tissue neoplasm in extremities, despite no significant history of previous trauma.

Authors: Batta Nafisa Shakir , Gupta Ankur , Batra Vikas
Published: September 2019

The absence of hallucal sesamoids is an uncommon and incidental entity, bilateral absence is rare, and few cases of symptomatic patients have been reported in literature. Most patients present with metatarsalgia limited to plantar aspect of the great toe, with aggravation of pain on walking and relief at rest. We present a unique case of ipsilateral symptomatic hypoplastic medial hallucal sesamoid and asymptomatic absence of medial sesamoid at the contralateral foot.
Comparison of retention of two proximal sealants in mandibular first molars of 12-year-old school children - A split-mouth randomized trial
Authors: Sankar Brinda Bhavani , Kumar Madan
Published: September 2019

Aim:

This study was done to assess and compare the retention properties of a proximal sealant made of polyurethane dimethacrylate and a resin-based adhesive system for sealing proximal surfaces of permanent mandibular first molars in 12-year-old children over a period of 6 months.

Methodology:

A split-mouth randomized trial was conducted among 50 school children. Pre-operative and post-operative bitewing radiographs were taken bilaterally prior at baseline and the end of the sixth month. Separators were placed for those children who did not have physiological spacing. The interventions were delivered on the left and right sides after randomization as per the manufacturer’s instructions, and post-operative instructions were given to the participants. The interventions were assessed for retention primarily and other criteria such as color match, marginal discoloration, marginal adaptation, anatomic form, caries formation (using bitewing radiographs), post-operative sensitivity, and surface roughness at the end of the 1st, 3rd, and 6 months using United States Public Health Service Modified Ryge Criteria for Direct Clinical Evaluation of Restorations proposed by Cvar and Ryge, 1980. The data were compiled, analyzed using SPSS and results were generated.

Conclusions:

The study results revealed that the resin-based adhesive system was better than the adhesive patch in terms of retention over a period of 6 months. Hence, the feasibility of including proximal sealants as a part of the preventive regimen for caries risk children should be positively considered.
An adapted continuing education program in gerodontics: The actual challenge
Authors: Mersel Alexandre
Published: September 2019

The Concept started after WW2 mainly is US, and was divided in 3 directions; Geriatric Dentistry, Gerodontics and Gerodontology. Two important Journals were edits; Special care in Dentistry and Gerodontology. In Europe we were witness to the creation to the International Association in Gerodonotology. In 1991 appeared the European College of Gerodontology actually publishing in the Journal Gerodontology Since this topic is not recognized as a specialty, the Faculties were not enthusiastic to introduce it in the basic formation. Moreover in the large audience meetings/ Congresses the number of Speakers were very small. In the FDI it took time under my leading to fix Gerodontic sessions. Only during the last few years appeared an initiative that was sponsored and under the control of the FDI, a Federation of Dental Associations and the OHAP (Oral Health for an Ageing Population). But despite these progresses, on a Continuing Education level few people attended the lectures and also only a few remained until the end of Lecture. Consequently it is necessary to find out the reasons of this situation

Introduction:

Dental anxiety remains a barrier to dental care for a considerable proportion of the population. The psychological profile of patients dentally anxious but not highly anxious is quite similar to normal (non-anxious) patients’ profile.

Aims and Objectives:

The aim of the study is to assess personality traits and prevalence of dental anxiety and to find an association between dental anxiety and personality traits in arts students.

Materials and Methods:

A cross-sectional study was conducted among 130 arts students out of which 86 were males and 44 were females. Modified dental anxiety scale was used to measure dental anxiety using a five-point Likert scale. Personality trait was assessed using the short-form revised Eysenck personality questionnaire scale which consisted of 48 questions. Statistical analysis was done using independent t-test with statistical significance at 5%.

Results:

Overall prevalence of dental anxiety was 56.93% (males 53.38% and females 63.63%). The mean score of dental anxiety for males was 9.6 ± 3.7 and for females 11.3 ± 4.2, and difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). A total of 30 (23.07%) were classified as extraversion, 24 (18.46%) as neuroticism, 32 (24.61%) as lie scale, and 20 (15.38%) as psychoticism according to the scale used. In the present study, there was no association between dental anxiety and personality trait.

Conclusion:

In general, dental anxiety is not gender related, but in the present study, females had higher dental anxiety (63.63%) compared to males (53.38%).

Childhood trauma and Effective Empirically Based Interventions
Authors: Wilson Shanika Lavi
Published: September 2019

Trauma affects many children in various ways globally. According to SAMHSA (2017), the “occurrence of child trauma is very prevalent, and 75% of children reported experiencing at least one traumatic event by age 16”. Traumatic events consist of “psychological, physical, or sexual abuse; community or school violence; witnessing or experiencing domestic violence; national disasters or terrorism; commercial sexual exploitation; sudden or violent loss of a loved one; refugee or war experiences; military family-related stressors; physical or sexual assault; neglect; and serious accidents or life-threatening illness” (SAMHSA, 2017). This literature review evaluates three different attachment-based, trauma-informed interventions for young children 0 - 7 years of age which are: Attachment and BioBehavioural Catchup (ABC), Child-Parent Psychotherapy (CPP), and Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT).  Throughout this review, childhood trauma will be defined, and the current occurrence rates will be discussed. Furthermore, the descriptions of the above therapies, clinical trials, and research findings will be examined, and a discussion of the literature review findings will follow.
