Authors: Xianlu Zeng , Fei Han , Yanmei Zhong
Published: February 2020

In order to harvest selenium-enriched fruiting body and spores of Ganoderma lingzhi and spent medium, G. lingzhi was cultivated in kudzu vine as substrate and the bio-transformation of selenite was evaluated. The growth medium consisted of Kudzu vine supplemented with 20% wheat bran or sawdust or none. The growth medium was supplemented with 0, 10, 20, 30, and 50 mg/kg of sodium selenite. We found a significant difference in spawn run speed, fruiting body and spore yields when Kudzu vine was supplemented with wheat bran or sawdust. However, when whole-kudzu vine was used alone as substrate, it resulted in a significantly lower spawn run speed, fruiting body, and spore yields compared with kudzu vine + sawdust substrate and kudzu vine + wheat bran substrate. The selenium content in fruiting body and spores increased with increasing sodium selenite supplementation and approximately equaled half of the selenium in the substrate. No selenite was detected in both the fruiting body and spores. However, in the spent medium when sodium selenite was supplemented at 10, 20, 30, 50 mg/kg, the residual selenite concentration decreased to 0.45, 0.72, 1.29, and 1.95 mg/kg, respectively, suggesting a higher selenite transformation (92.27–93.57%). In conclusion, if Ganoderma fruiting body and spores were to be harvested for human consumption, approximately 50 mg/kg selenite should be added to the growth substrate. On the other hand, if the spent medium was to be used as an organic selenium source, the optimal sodium selenite supplementation level would be 10 mg/kg.

Authors: Lixiao Yu , Xiaoyun Liu
Published: February 2020

Cervical cancer is one of the most malignant cancers of the female reproductive system with high morbidity and mortality. In the current study, we have examined the effect of eriodictyol on cell survival including cell growth, cell cycle and apoptosis of cervical cancer cells and also explored the underlying mechanism(s). To this end, CCK-8 assay, flow cytometry and western blotting assays were performed in cervical cancer HeLa cells. Eriodictyol significantly inhibited cell survival including impeding the cell viability, arresting the cell cycle at the G1 phase and potentiating cell apoptosis in a concentration-dependent manner. Also, ERI activated PTEN, P21, cleaved caspase-3/-9 expression and downregulated P-Akt and cyclin D1 expression in a dose-dependent manner. In conclusion, ERI can inhibit cervical cancer HeLa cells viability via impeding cell cycle and inducing apoptosis by regulating PTEN/Akt signaling pathway.

Studi ini mengkaji secara komprehensif kebijakan area dilarang merokok di ruang terbuka publik sebagai upaya untuk mengurangi paparan asap rokok di mana program dan kegiatannya juga upaya pemerintah dan masyarakat melalui pendidikan dan advokasi dan kesadaran tentang bahaya merokok. Target penelitian mengkaji dan menganalisis kebijakan area bebas rokok di ruang terbuka publik untuk mencegah paparan terhadap asap rokok, sehingga variabel-variabel ini dapat dipelajari secara komprehensif dan holistik kemudian digunakan pendekatan kualitatif.Pada 2017 produksi rokok adalah 341,9 miliar batang. Menurut direktur penerimaan dan peraturan bea dan cukai di direktorat jenderal bea dan cukai Susiwijono ketika melihat angka realisasi produksi rokok aktual pada periode Juli 2014, dapat dilihat bahwa efek dari peraturan Pemerintah No. 109 tahun 2012 terkait hingga ketentuan Peringatan Kesehatan (pictorial health warning) yang mensyaratkan pemasangan gambar peringatan kesehatan 40% dari luas kemasan rokok tidak terlalu signifikan dalam mengendalikan produksi dan konsumsi rokok. Mungkin ada efek pada konsumsi rokok, tetapi tidak terlalu besar. Dari sepuluh perokok terbesar di dunia, Indonesia menempati urutan ketiga setelah Cina dan India. Untuk Surabaya, jumlah pekerja aktif di kalangan anak muda pada usia siswa sangat mengkhawatirkan. Pada Oktober 2012, perokok aktif adalah 12,98% dan 14,3% siswa pernah merokok. Pemerintah kota Surabaya sering melihat bahwa orang yang tidak merokok atau dapat disebut perokok pasif sering mendapatkan efek dari orang yang merokok atau perokok aktif. Tentu saja perokok pasif mendapat kerugian di sini terutama masalah kesehatan dan gangguan lingkungan publik.

The internationalisation of higher education: a networking based conceptual framework
Authors: Munusamy M.Miandy , Hashim Azirah
Published: February 2020

Internationalisation is an important worldwide phenomenon and a major trend in higher education. It is also one of the ways nations react to the impact of globalisation. There are multiple rationales that encourage various national governments, higher education institutions, international organisations and the private sector to proactively engage in educational services across national borders. Internationalisation theories have primarily focused on the internationalisation process in the business and economic dimensions, but since 1980s, it has influenced the structure of education and higher education systems. The network approach emphasises the benefits of developing long-term interactions with foreign markets, institutions and individuals. Networking also provides an important motivation for nations and higher education institutions to enrich international activities and expand their landscape, share best practices as well as transfer knowledge and balance risks. The study explores the Uppsala and network theories of internationalisation and its feasibility for examining networking in the internationalisation of higher education. It provides new insights into how the network model of internationalisation allows the influence of external actors or organisations to impact on the process of internationalisation of higher education. A conceptual framework on networking perspectives in internationalisation, which has the potential to contribute towards achieving internationalisation goals and the enhancing quality of higher education is proposed.

Published: February 2020

The potential severity of some incidents regarding groundwater contamination within urban areas has recently led to the intensification of national concerns for complex identification and assessment of risks in contaminated areas and of their effects on human and environmental health. Urban groundwater protection in line with environmental objectives directly depends on the implementation of the legal and technical regulations in force in a proactive manner, aiming at the appropriate treatment of pollution situations and the effective management of the related risks. Given the massive industrial use of volatile organic compounds, their accumulation in the environment poses a major threat to the environment and public health, including through water pollution. This paper presents the results of a study on the presence of trichlorethylene (TCE) in groundwater and drinking water in a residential area of Bucharest (Pipera-Tunari area), highlighting TCE contamination found in some cases in concentrations well above the required limit set by Law 458 on Drinking Water Quality. The study analyzes the seasonal variations of TCE contamination, while addressing the effectiveness of applicable depollution solutions. The results of the study provide the most useful information for water quality authorities, and can be regarded as a benchmark for similar analyzes in other urban areas.

Published: February 2020

In the field of renewable energy, national targets imposed by the European Directive on promoting the use of energy from renewable sources is to reach 24% of gross final consumption of energy by 2020. This paper presents a solution for this target and for sustainable management of ash and slag closed deposits by plantation of energetic crops. Process of plantation was assessed by tracking energetic crops by determining the capacity of metals accumulation in wood biomass, correlations between the crops diameter and height, chemical composition of ash. The obtained data were compared with similar data recorded for other intensive crops. Amount of biomass harvested from 5.3 kg/m2 green table (after 3 years) reveals a good development and production of plantation wood, grown on the surface of ash and slag deposit. Based on obtained experimental data, we propose a model of vegetation with energy plants (Salix sp.) of a deposit of ash and slag after its closure was achieved. By implementing experimental model these surfaces can be reinserted in landscape and economic circuit, being in accordance with the provisions of Order No. 757 of 26/11/2004 for approval the Technical Normative of Waste Storage.

Published: February 2020

Species of the Enterobacteriaceae family are frequently involved in various gastrointestinal infectious diseases, including food poisoning that without proper treatment and medical supervision can be fatal for some patients, particularly for those with weak immune systems. Therefore we proposed to characterize the virulence factors of some strains from the Enterobacteriaceae family isolated from food and food processing surfaces at the phenotypic and genotypic level in order to assess the microbiological risk for the public health. The strains were identified using conventional biochemical methods. The expression of virulence soluble markers and the ability of the enterobacterial strains to adhere to the inert and cellular substrate were investigated. At the genetic level the presence of some genes involved in adhesion and virulence was also investigated by PCR. The tested strains revealed a different adherence capacity to the inert and cellular substrata and also ability to develop biofilms. Regarding enzymatic factors, esculin hydrolysis with the production of esculetin as an iron chelating agent and the casein hydrolysing protease were mostly expressed. The results proved that Enterobacteriaceae strains isolated from food could represent a microbiological risk factor for consumers� health, contributing also to the setting up of the reservoir virulence and resistance genes.

Published: February 2020

Grape seeds from five known red grape sorts and two new local sorts, obtained by hybridization of red and white varieties, have been valorized as vegetal oils, through good yield extraction. The fatty acid content the of obtained oils was determined by GC-FID, as methyl esters, and directly by 1H-NMR spectroscopy. The obtained grape seed oils have a high content in linoleic acid (over 70%) and a relatively low quantity of saturated fatty acid (stearic and palmitic). Both measurement methods gave similar results confirming the accuracy of the spectroscopic method, which is less time and reagent consuming. Based on the fatty acid profile (FAP) of the oils, determined by either FT-IR or 1H-NMR and using the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Hierarchical Clustering Analysis (HCA) statistical methods, the discrimination between the classical known grape sorts and the new local varieties could be achieved. The results show that such method is appropriate for discovering possible adulteration of the grape oils, valuable products due to the essential unsaturated acid content.
Polymyalgia Rheumatica - a Disease of the Elderly
Authors: Cristescu Vasilica , Romila Aurelia , Macovei Luana Andreea
Published: February 2020

Polymyalgia rheumatica is a disease that occurs mostly in the elderly and is rarely seen in patients less than 50 years of age. Polymyalgia rheumatica is a vasculitis, which manifests itself as an inflammatory disease of the vascular wall that can affect any type of blood vessel, regardless of its size. It has been considered a form of giant cell arteritis, involving primarily large and medium arteries and to a lesser extent the arterioles. Clinical manifestations are caused by the generic pathogenic process and depend on the characteristics of the damaged organ. PMR is a senescence-related immune disorder. It has been defined as a stand-alone condition and a syndrome referred to as rheumatic polyarteritis with manifestations of giant cell arteritis (especially in cases of Horton�s disease and temporal arteritis) which are commonly associated with polymyalgia. The clinical presentation is clearly dominated by the painful girdle syndrome, with a feeling of general discomfort. Polymyalgia and temporal arteritis may coexist or be consecutive to each other in the same patient, as in most of our patients. The present study describes 3 cases of polymyalgia rheumatica, admitted to the Clinic of Rheumatology of Sf. Apostol Andrei Hospital, Galati. The cases were compared with the literature. Two clinical aspects (polymyalgia rheumatica and/or Horton�s disease) and the relationship between them were also considered. Polymyalgia rheumatica is currently thought to have a multifactorial etiology, in which the following factors play a role: genetic factors or hereditary predisposition (some individuals are more prone to this disease), immune factors and viral infections (triggers of the disease). Other risk factors of polymyalgia rheumatica include age over 50 years and the association with giant cell arteritis. The characteristic feature of the disease is girdle pain, with intense stiffness of at least one hour�s duration. Markers of inflammation, erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C-reactive protein are almost always increased at the onset of the disease. Diseases that can mimic the clinical picture of polymyalgia rheumatica are neoplasia, infections, metabolic disorders of the bone and endocrine diseases.

Methylene blue (MB) has many uses in medicine, being applied as a treatment for infections, malaria, methemoglobinemia, as a dye for diagnosis and for staining of cells, tissues and bacteria. In elderly patients with associated high anaesthetic risk, dacryocystectomy is an alternative to dacryocystorhinostomy. This is an observational clinical study for two cases of chronic dacryocystitis where dacryocystectomy combined with MB (1%) staining of lacrimal sac was performed. Case no.1 - an 81-year old female patient with arterial hypertension, atherosclerosis, pulmonary fibrosis, and lower limb varices complainted of recurrent epiphora, muco-purulent secretions in both eyes, inflammatory oedema of the left perisacular region for the past 6 months. Case no. 2 - a 74-year old female patient with hypothyroidism suffered from chronic epiphora in the left eye with a purple-red oedema of the inferior eyelid and perisacular region. Symptoms reoccurred in the last 10 months despite topical and systemic therapy with antibiotics and anti-inflamatory drugs. Dacryocystectomy was performed under local anaesthesia in both patients. MB (1%) was used to irrigate the lacrimal sac in order to facilitate its localisation, dissection and excision. Results: Case no.1. Ectopic lacrimal sac. Case no.2. Enlarged lacrimal sac (7.5/14 mm). The histopathological examination revealed a trachomatous dacryocystitis, respectively a chronic non-suppurative non-granulomatous dacryocystitis. Their postoperative evolution was without complications, except for a mild epiphora. In conclusion, dacryocystectomy appears to be a less traumatising alternative to dacryocystorhinostomy. The staining of the lacrimal sac with MB (1%) in dacryocystectomy facilitates its identification and dissection, especially when it is ectopic.

The living organisms can trigger the defense mechanisms against free radicals, by synthesizing different antioxidant enzymes. The present study is focused on establishing some correlation between oxidative stress and the structural changes in cell death at the intestinal larval epithelium level during anuran metamorphosis. Cell death in such conditions may be regarded as the result of an interaction activity in which takes place apoptosis, autophagy, and necrosis, the cell choosing one or more. The amphibian metamorphosis is a complex process, divided into three major periods: prometamorphosis, premetamorphosis and climax. The process ensures the passage of the organism from aquatic to terrestrial life, with dramatic changes in the morphology and structure of some organs. In the climax stages of metamorphosis, a variety of free radicals are produced, starting a numerous cellular oxidation reactions.

The ability of damaged articular cartilage to recover with normal hyaline cartilage is limited. Our aim was to study the mechanism of in vivo cartilage repair in case of severe osteochondral lesions using a three-dimensional matrix implanted without any preseeded cells in the osteochondral defect in a rabbit model. According to the ICRS scores from macroscopic observations of the femoral condyles, the average scores in the scaffold groups were higher than those in the control groups at every time (P[0.001). Histological examination of the ostheochondral defects, revealed regeneration of new tissue with hyaline-like cartilage features only in matrix groups. At twelve weeks from implantation, complete filling of the defect with hyaline cartilage with a tendency of mineralization and the absence of implant material is observed. The superficial area of the defect is completely covered with hyaline-like cartilage. The scaffold used leaded to the regeneration of articular tissue with an ordered histoarchitecture.

Genetics is a key discipline in medicine, but also a clinical discipline with medical and social implications. The interest in reducing the number of genetic disorders and recognizing the risk of them repeating when a family confronts itself with a genetic anomaly becomes more and more important in the hierarchy of prophylactic emergencies. Presenting themselves as metabolic diseases (monogenic mutations) or malformations (polygenic and multifactorial heredity) because of their frequency, these disorders position themselves on an ascendant curve. They become difficult to deal with for the society, for the family and for the interested individual and cause emotional disorders. The Down syndrome is the most frequent type of genetic disorder. It is characterized by a specific set of signs and symptoms. People with Down syndrome require special medical care that, apart from the family, must include a team of doctors of various specializations and also a dentist. They are predisposed to hearing and sight disorders and thyroid problems as well. In 50% of the cases there are also anomalies of the heart, and the risk of leukaemia is 20 times higher. Some of them even develop an Alzheimer type dementia during their life. The people with Down syndrome can have an average IQ up to a moderate form of handicap. In particular, the studies on Down syndrome in dentistry are quite frequent, but they focus more on cavities, periodontal disease and hypodontia. In spite of this, the connection of Down syndrome and dental eruption is less studied. Consequently, the present study is intended to fill this missing part from the specialized literature, focusing on the relation between the Down syndrome and the chronological and dental ages in children. The health of the oral cavity is neglected in these patients, their parents focusing more on the treatment of the other systemic disorders of their children; the lack of interest is reflected in their poor oral hygiene.The trial group included 94 children with mixt dentition, aged between 6 and 12, divided as follows: 36 children with Down syndrome enrolled at the Educational Centre for Inclusive Education no. 1 of Tg. Mures and Alpha Transilvana Foundation. The chronology and the eruption sequences are subjected to certain variations and they are influenced by the presence of cavities, the premature loss or, on the contrary, the prolonged retention of deciduous teeth as well as dental anchylosis. Dental maturation is less subjected to variations, as it is a progressive, continuous and cumulative process. The presence of Down syndrome in children generates a delay in teeth eruption by 1.27 years compared to the data identified in the specialized literature and to the information obtained on the healthy children included in the study.

The present study considers the causes of precipitation of dissolved salts from the reservoir water and at the current modeling solutions of the phenomenon using existing commercial reservoir simulators. Consequently, we investigate the capabilities of ECLIPSE family of simulators in terms of showing the salt falling out of solution in the near wellbore region and across the reservoir as we deplete it. The work has been undertaken due to the fact that the wells� production coming from mature dry gas reservoirs is much affected by this salt precipitation, both in the wellbore and near wellbore region, and in order to know when to intervene the well for sweet water washing of these deposits. This is the first successful approach in using Schlumberger�s ECLIPSE Thermal CO2STORE and Petrel, as a pre/post processor, in order to determine when salt falls out of solution.
Effectiveness of Various Gingival Sulcus Widening Materials

Published: February 2020

The gingival-dental sulcus is a V-shaped depression located around the tooth neck; the space surrounded by the free gingival edge, the tooth (near the enamel-cement junction), and the junction between the gum and the tooth (epithelial junction); it contains the gingival sulcus fluid and the dental plaque. The long-term clinical success of prosthetic restorations depends on the careful and accurate completion of several procedures. One of the difficult procedures is the management of gum tissues and gum aesthetics. Their goal is to maintain the normal appearance of the healthy gum. Achieving this goal requires optimal periodontal health before treatment and minimal injury during treatment. The best way to optimize these things is to avoid touching the gum with the restoration materials.Our research was conducted on a number of nine (9) voluntary patients. Gingival sulcus widening is important for the accuracy of the impression for a future fixed prosthetic work, especially when the finishing line is in contact with the gingival sulcus. Dilation of the gingival sulcus is also important when crown restorations are performed in the cervix area due to the contact of the bare material with the periodontal tissues. Among the methods used for dilating the gingival sulcus, non-surgical ones are preferred by practitioners. For aesthetic and functional reasons, the edges of prosthetic restorations are placed under the gum. Therefore, the practitioner should record as accurately as possible the finishing edges to allow adequate edge integrity for restoration. This can be done by dilating the gingival sulcus, but also by providing a clean and dry space. In order to create a faithful mockup of the soft and hard tissue of the oral cavity, the gum around the prepared teeth should be thoroughly checked. This gum should be displaced and bleeding is avoided.

Published: February 2020

Various interventions require tissue ablation in ENT surgery. This can be achieved using a multitude of methods, but the tendency today is to use minimally invasive methods. The development of new technologies has allowed us to consider the use of coblation for tissue ablation, which is based on a chemical reaction, instead of a thermal or mechanical ablation. The technology proved to be extremely used in the field of ENT. Its indications range from functional surgery to benign or even malignant tumors and it can be used in the nose, pharynx and larynx, with probes of different length and angulation. This minimally invasive method of tissue ablation associates less scaring, a faster recovery and a lower postoperative discomfort. Although the time required for the intervention may be somewhat longer, the overall results are superior to the classical methods, considering it provides instant hemosthasis as well. We consider it to be a reliable method, fit for a wide range of indications.

Keberhasilan Pembangunan Kesehatan dapat dilihat dari berbagai indikator yang digunakan untuk memantau derajat kesehatan sekaligus sebagai evaluasi keberhasilan pelaksanaan program. Untuk mengidentifikasi masalah dan hambatan tersebut perlu dilakukan analisis situasi dan kecenderungan di masa mendatang. P4K adalah program yang dicanangkan dalam upaya mempercepat penurunan angka kematian ibu dengan cara memantau, mencatat serta menandai setiap ibu hamil. Dengan begitu diharapkan setiap ibu hamil sampai dengan bersalin dan nifas dapat dipantau oleh masyarakat dan tenaga kesehatan untuk mendapatkan pelayanan yang sesuai standar sehingga proses kehamilan dan persalinan sampai dengan nifas termasuk rujukannya dapat berjalan dengan aman dan selamat, tidak terjadi kesakitan dan kematian ibu serta bayi yang dilahirkan selamat dan sehat. Tujuan Penelitian yaitu Menjelaskan Implementasi P4K di Puskesmas PONED Kabupaten Pekalongan. Desain Penelitian yang digunakan yakni desain penelitian deskriptif yang bersifat kualitatif. Subjek Penelitian meliputi informan utama yaitu 9 bidan pelaksana di Puskesmas PONED Wilayah kerja Dinas Kesehatan Kabupaten Pekalongan dan informan triangulasi yang terdiri dari Kasie Kesga Dinas Kesehatan Kabupaten Pekalongan, Kepala Puskesmas, serta kader kesehatan pelaksana P4K. Pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui wawancara mendalam dan analisis dengan analisis isi.Hasil Penelitian menunjukkan Kegiatan implementasi P4K yang belum berjalan adalah donor darah dan tabulin, penyebabnya adalah karena banyak ibu hamil belum mengetahui golongan darah anggota keluarganya dan masih mengandalkan Jaminan Kesehatan dari pemerintah. Tidak ada aturan yang jelas dalam menggalang tabulin. Bidan sudah aktif melibatkan kader dalam menjalankan P4K, namun tidak semua mendapatkan pelatihan dan informasi dari Dinas Kesehatan. Sosialisasi yang dilaksanakan oleh DKK kepada bidan wilayah dan kader hanya dilaksanakan setiap 1 tahun sekali dalam bentuk penyegaran dan hanya diwakili beberapa orang. Kondisi masyarakat dengan tingkat ekonomi masyarakat dalam strata menengah dan menengah kebawah yaitu buruh dan dagang tidak mempengaruhi kegiatan P4K karena banyaknya jaminan kesehatan yang diandalkan oleh masyarakat

The meaning of teachers is related for the life philosophy of a community. Which generally secular western society tends to regard the teacher as an sich companion for students, their interests are not more than just the transfer of knowledge. Even in a more extreme level, religious symbols strictly prohibited into the classrooms. The fact is truly turned to the experience and teachings of Islam. In Islam teachers are not only seen as a 'bank' whose job is only saving and transfer of knowledge, but more that, the teacher is the one who has the moral responsibility, spiritual, and intellectual integrally.
   
 Abstrak
Makna guru berhubungan erat dengan falsafah hidup suatu masyarakat. Masyarakat barat yang umumnya sekuler cenderung memandang guru sebagai teman bagi peserta didik, kepentingannya tidak lebih dari sekedar transfer pengetahuan. Bahkan dalam tataran yang lebih ekstrim, simbol-simbol keagamaan dilarang ketat masuk ke dalam ruang-ruang kelas. Kenyataan tersebut sungguh berbalik dengan pengalaman dan ajaran Islam. Dalam Islam guru tidak hanya dipandang sebagai â€˜bankâ€™ pengetahuan yang tugasnya hanya menyimpan dan mentrasfer pengetahuan, tetapi lebih dari itu, guru adalahorang yang memiliki tanggungjawab moral, spiritual, dan intelektual secara integral.

The contribution of the influence given by employee mutations to the ups and downs of employee stress is 34%. While the remaining 66% is influenced by other factors that are not specifically explained in this study. These results indicate that if employee mutations are carried out in accordance with the principles of mutation, then the work stress experienced by employees can be minimized. However, the problem today is how the employee paradigm regarding the mutation itself. Mutations that should have been motivated turned out to be a scourge for employees who entered the list of mutations. Of course this is because the implementation of the mutations that have occurred so far have not referred to the HRM principles, where mutations are carried out in addition to fulfilling the shortage of staff in other units / sections as well as to place employees in accordance with their skills, abilities and fields. Current mutations are political products that are implemented and targeted at individuals who are not considered part of political promises. So, instead of minimizing stress, on the contrary it actually adds to work stress.Keywords: Employee mutation, performance
