Authors: Kachra Rahim , Ma Irene Wai Yan
Published: April 2020

This article was migrated. The article was not marked as recommended. The COVID-19 pandemic has been a stimulus for innovation in medicine. It has inspired a re-imagination of the traditional delivery of healthcare, as providers explore novel approaches to patient care and medical educators navigate how to rapidly rollout educational materials to prepare the workforce for front-line care. Although there is a plethora of literature about creating medical curricula in general, there is a dearth of resources directing educators how to deliver education in a time and resource limited setting. The following practical tips will help medical educators identify gaps, create materials, and deliver education under pressure.
Cuidado, virtude e dilemas morais nas práticas de nãojornalistas
Authors: Paul Dairan , Christofoletti Rogério
Published: April 2020

Resumo O artigo discute os valores éticos que balizam algumas decisões tomadas por não-jornalistas diante de dilemas morais em situações editoriais. Para investigar o problema, foram entrevistados membros do coletivo carioca Mídia Independente Coletiva (MIC), grupo caracterizado por cobrir manifestações políticas. Os resultados apontam para uma pré-disposição de cultivar o cuidado como virtude fundamental nas práticas cotidianas, seja pela cobertura de grupos socialmente vulneráveis, seja pelo relacionamento com as fontes de informação. Os resultados evidenciam também certas tensões entre não-jornalistas e a deontologia profissional, ora em consonância com seus valores ou divergindo das práticas normatizadas em códigos profissionais.
Status relacional fronteiriço em dois jornais da fronteira Brasil-Argentina
Authors: Dornelles Beatriz , Nazário Heleno Rocha
Published: April 2020

Resumo Este artigo apresenta parte de pesquisa sobre como os jornais fronteiriços Folha de São Borja (1970-) e Unión (1977-2010) cobriram dois adventos na travessia do Rio Uruguai entre São Borja (Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil) e Santo Tomé (Corrientes, Argentina): a abertura dos respectivos portos para importações e exportações (1982) e a construção da Ponte Internacional da Integração (1997). O artigo destaca a categoria “status relacional fronteiriço”, proposta para obter indícios do posicionamento acerca da fronteira e dos contatos com o país vizinho a partir dos textos publicados nos jornais. Pretendeu-se, a partir do estudo, formular sugestões para as empresas jornalísticas em prol da integração e do enfrentamento dos fatores de tensão, expondo os problemas de convivência a serem enfrentados concomitantemente. Dentre os resultados encontrados, notamos que o jornal gaúcho deu ligeira ênfase à integração em âmbito internacional e o periódico santo-tomenho valorizou a ligação entre as duas cidades.

Un proceso de investigación-acción en la sierra andina ecuatoriana. Radio Runacunapac y Radio Salinerito: cuando la precariedad impide lo comunitario
Authors: Tamarit Ana , Puñal Belén , Cabrera Noemí Gabriela Sánchez
Published: April 2020

Resumen Este trabajo muestra los resultados obtenidos tras un proceso de investigación-acción realizado a lo largo de cuatro años a través de Radio Runacunapac y Radio Salinerito, dos casos de estudio en la sierra andina ecuatoriana. Este recorrido - basado en una exploración inicial, la planificación y puesta en práctica de una acción formativa y la evaluación de cómo han cambiado estas emisoras a lo largo de este período ? nos ha permitido comprobar que las posibilidades abiertas por la Ley Orgánica de Comunicación (LOC) en 2013, reconociendo a los medios comunitarios en la práctica quedaron en buena medida sin desarrollar. Radio Runacunapac y Radio Salinerito consiguieron, en efecto, el reconocimiento como emisoras comunitarias pero sin cambios en la programación. Se derivan dos conclusiones: por un lado, las relaciones entre emisora y comunidad se mantienen en el tiempo pero no logran fomentar el diálogo de lo “común”, ese espacio de comunicación en el que se comparten todas las voces de la comunidad. Por otro, se reproducen roles y esquemas comunicacionales propios de las radios locales privadas con contenidos musicales y de entretenimiento.

Published: April 2020

ABSTRACT Objective: To understand, from the family’s perspective, the meaning of admitting the child in the hospital with the use of the instructional therapeutic play. Method: A phenomenological research with 12 families of children aged four to nine years old, recently admitted to a public and teaching hospital, in the inland of the state of São Paulo, from October to December 2016. They participated in an instructional therapeutic play session focusing on the procedures performed at hospital admission: weight, height, and vital sign measurements and test collection. The families, in turn, were invited to participate in a phenomenological interview the day after the session. Results: The instructional therapeutic play collaborated in the therapeutic procedures by understanding and modifying the child’s behavior. Also stressed by the families was the need for the toy to be incorporated as nursing care. Conclusion: Given the benefits to the child, the family believes that this strategy should be performed as a routine nursing care and, therefore, performed systematically during child hospitalization.

ABSTRACT Despite the advances undertaken in recent years, modeling watershed’s hydrological responses remains a complex task, especially in data-scarce areas. In order to overcome this, new models with distinct representations of hydrological processes continue to be developed, incorporating spatial data and geoprocessing tools. In this article, the CAWM IV (Campus Agreste Watershed Model Version IV) model is presented. It is a conceptual model developed with the purpose of contributing mainly to the hydrological modeling of basins inserted in semi-arid regions. The article provides the layout of the mathematical model structure and a set of results obtained from the application of the model to basins with different characteristics. The main features of the model are the reduced number of parameters to calibrate and the incorporation of the basin physical characteristics in the calculation of several attributes, in order to facilitate the process of regionalization for other similar basins, particularly due to the absence of flow data. The CAWM IV model was applied to four basins located in the state of Pernambuco, in the Northeast region of Brazil. The model presented adequate behavior for 55 to 92% of the simulated events, depending on the criteria of performance indicators used in the analysis.

Published: April 2020

In this note, we present a statistical analysis of the mortality rates of COVID-19 for several selected European countries. We compare the countries' mortality rates with their respective number of tests as a function of the time since the first death. Our analysis shows that countries that either delayed mass testing, such as Italy, or have not fully adopted it, such as France and the UK, have had much higher mortality rates than Germany, which has adopted a policy of wide and early testing. Conversely, countries that have followed Germany's example, such as Portugal, have so far had comparatively low mortality rates.
Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy Followed by Vaginal Radical Trachelectomy as Fertility-Preserving Treatment for Patients with FIGO 2018 Stage 1B2 Cervical Cancer

Published: April 2020

Background

Standard treatment for International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) 2018 stage 1B2 cervical cancer (i.e., tumor size between 2 and 4 cm) is a radical hysterectomy (RH) with pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND). We evaluated the oncological and fertility outcomes treatment in patients receiving a fertility-sparing alternative consisting of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) followed by vaginal radical trachelectomy (VRT).

Methods

Patients with stage 1B2 cervical cancer who wished to preserve fertility were included from September 2009 to September 2018. NACT consisted of 6-week cycles of cisplatin or carboplatin with paclitaxel. If tumor size decreased to 2 cm or smaller, NACT was followed by a robot-assisted PLND and VRT.

Results

Eighteen patients were included. Median follow-up time was 49.7 months (range 11.4–110.8). Median tumor size was 32 mm (range 22–40 mm). Complete remission after NACT occurred in seven women. Four women had a poor response on NACT. Three underwent RH with PLND; one received chemoradiation after PLND instead of VRT because of positive lymph nodes. The remaining 14 patients received VRT 3–4 weeks after NACT. Four recurrences occurred: three after NACT and VRT and one after NACT and RH. Median time to recurrence was 20.8 months (range 17.0–105.7). Three recurrences occurred in women with adenocarcinoma with lymph vascular space invasion (LVSI). In four women fertility could not be preserved. To date, four women had six pregnancies, including three live births born at term, two first trimester miscarriages, and one currently ongoing pregnancy.

Conclusion

NACT and VRT in women with stage 1B2 cervical cancer showed promising results. In 78% fertility was preserved. However, patients with poor response on NACT and with adenocarcinoma and/or LVSI were possibly at risk for recurrence. Long-term results in relation to fertility and oncological outcome are needed to corroborate these findings.

Implications for Practice

Standard treatment for women with International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) 2018 stage 1B2 cervical cancer (tumor size 2–4 cm) is a radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND). However, many of these women are young and wish to preserve fertility. Data on fertility-sparing treatment options are sparse, but neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by a vaginal radical trachelectomy and PLND could be an alternative. Since 2009 we performed an observational cohort study in which 18 women opted for this treatment in our center. In 14 women fertility could be preserved. In four patients the tumor recurred. In four women six pregnancies occurred. After careful selection this treatment could be a good fertility-sparing treatment option.
Effect of stabiliser type on the physical and mechanical properties of tuff material
Authors: Khadra Benguettache , Idriss Goual , Kamel Gueddouda Mohammed
Published: April 2020

The properties of tuff blocks and the feasibility of using these blocks in construction were examined. This paper presents an experimental study on the characterisation of tuff blocks stabilised with cement, lime, alfa fibres and human hair. The use of tuff raises many questions and poses challenges, but it has been chosen to play a major role in road constructions in recent years because tuff soil is one of the most abundant natural materials. The disadvantage of tuff blocks is their low resistance to water damage. The main objective of this work was to study the mechanical properties (compressive and tensile strength, and speed of sound resistance) and durability (water absorption and wetting–drying) of tuff blocks. The experimental results showed that 80% tuff + 20% clay + 12% cement bricks give better results and that the impact of fibres on tuff blocks is unfavourable due to their heterogeneity or distribution, low matrix adhesion and very high water absorption. These factors affect the conditions under which tuff soil materials can be used in construction.
Mechanical behaviour of low–medium density destructured White Chalk
Authors: Alvarez-Borges F. , Madhusudhan B. N. , Richards D. J.
Published: April 2020

Low- and medium-density White Chalk often destructures during civil engineering works, forming a putty that exhibits problematic low strengths in the short term but may build-up strength with time. The underlying mechanisms that control the mechanical performance of the material are not well understood. This paper explores the prospect of developing a framework to characterise the behaviour of chalk putty. To this end, triaxial tests were carried out using low- and medium-density reconstituted chalks produced by different methods. Using void ratio against mean effective stress results, a unique critical state line (CSL) is proposed, regardless of parent rock origin or the crushing process used to generate the putty material. The CSL was also found to satisfactorily fit independent test data by various authors, even though each independent sample material may have had different ‘intrinsic’ CSLs. This was suggested to stem from the similar particle characteristics of the chalks used. An assessment of the ageing effect indicates increases in strength as a result of densification due to consolidation and secondary compression, however, the end-of-test state could still be described using the CSL.

PROLIFERATION RESISTANCE ASSESSMENT OF INDONESIAN 10-MWT RDE EXPERIMENTAL POWER REACTOR USING INPRO METHODOLOGY. Assessment of proliferation resistance (PR) for 10-MWt RDE has been conducted to verify the RDE safeguards desain. Proliferation resistance (PR) is a parameter that can be used to measure the ability of a facility to implement safeguards (safeguardability). Safeguards is every technical measure used to ensure that every nuclear material in a facility is used as declared and only for welfare. Proliferation resistance of 10-MWt RDE has been assessed with INPRO methodology. The areas assessed were specific to intrinsic features of RDE, which consist of the attractiveness of nuclear material and technology and also detectability and chances of diversion of the nuclear material. This assessment concludes that the 10-MWt RDE has strong proliferation resistance, which indicates that the facility has small ability to diverse nuclear material and will less likely be used to proliferate nuclear weapon.Keywords: Proliferation Resistance, Safeguards, INPRO Methodology.

PENENTUAN RECOVERY NEODYMIUM DAN CERIUM PADA PROSES PEMISAHAN ISOTOP DARI SIMULASI PEB U3SI2/Al PRA IRADIASI. Neodymium (Nd) merupakan salah satu isotop hasil fisi yang digunakan sebagai indikator burnup bahan bakar nuklir karena isotop Nd merupakan hasil fisi yang stabil, mempunyai yield yang cukup besar, tidak mudah menguap dan mempunyai tampang lintang penangkap neutron yang rendah. Penentuan burnup menggunakan isotop Nd ini dapat mendukung dan memverifikasi hasil penentuan burnup  yang telah dilakukan sebelumnya yaitu menggunakan isotop Cs, U dan Pu. Penentuan burnup menggunakan isotop Nd dilakukan secara merusak (Destructive Test, DT) berdasarkan kepada penentuan isotop spesifik yang dilakukan secara fisikokima menggunakan peralatan spektrometer massa. Berdasarkan metode ASTM E 321-69 untuk melakukan analisis isotop Nd diperlukan pemisahan Nd dari Ce karena Isotop 142Ce mengganggu pengukuran 142Nd yang disebabkan oleh sifat isobar kedua isotop tersebut. Fenomena ini akan mempengaruhi hasil perhitungan burnup.. Selain hal tersebut, keberadaaan isotop Nd dalam bahan bakar PEB U3Si2/AL masih bercampur dengan isotop hasil fisi lainnya seperti isotop 235U, 239Pu, 148Nd, 137Cs, 152Eu, 90Sr,143Ce,103Ru, 95Zr, dan 95Nb. Oleh karena itu untuk memperoleh nilai yang akurat sebagai indikator burnup maka isotop-isotop tersebut harus dipisahkan. Sebelum dilakukan pemisahan isotop Nd dan Ce maka dilakukan beberapa tahap proses pemisahan isotop Cs (137Cs,134Cs), isotop U (234U, 235U,236U,238U), isotop Pu (239Pu, 238Pu) dan isotop-isotop lainnya (152Eu, 90Sr, 103Ru, 95Zr, dan 95Nb). Penentuan recovery ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui jumlah Nd dan Ce pada setiap tahapan proses pemisahan terhadap isotop-isotop lain, sebelum sampai pada tahap pemisahan Nd dan Ce. Penentuan recovery dilakukan secara simulasi terhadap larutan PEB U3Si2/Al pra iradiasi yang ditambah larutan standar Cs, U, Nd dan Ce. Hasil recovery Nd dan Ce yang diperoleh dari tahapan proses pemisahan Cs menggunakan zeolit masing-masing sebesar 69,91% dan 64,42%, sedangkan hasil recovery Nd dan Ce pada tahapan proses pemisahan Pu dan U diperoleh sangat baik yaitu mendekati nilai 100%. Recovery Nd dan Ce ini selanjutnya digunakan sebagai koreksi pada perhitungan pemisahan Nd dan Ce dari larutan PEB, yang akan menjadi acuan dalam penentuan burnup bahan bakar PEB U3Si2/Al menggunakan indikator Nd.Kata kunci: Nd recovery, Ce recovery, indikator burnup, PEB U3Si2/Al

Telah dilakukan uji tak merusak PEB U3Si2/Al densitas uranium 4,8 gU/cm3 pasca iradiasi dengan burn up 20, 40,dan 60 %. Pengujian meliputi pengamatan secara visual, analisis citra radiograf dan pengukuran dimensi menggunakan radiografi sinar-X digital. Uji tak merusak bertujuan untuk mengetahui unjuk kerja, integritas dan kehandalan PEB selama diiradiasi di RSG-GAS. Kehandalan dan kesalamatan bahan bakar selama di reaktor diindikasikan dengan tidak adanya anomali pada hasil pengujian pasca iradiasi. Elemen bakar uji (EBU) terdiridari tiga PEB U3Si2/Al densitas 4,8 gU/cm3pasca iradiasi ditransfer dari RSG-GAS ke hotcell 101 IRM melalui kanal hubung Instalasi Penyimpanan Sementara Bahan Bakar Bekas (IPSB3). Selanjutnya EBU ditransfer ke hot cell 103 untuk dilakukan pengujian tak merusak menggunakan radiografi sinar-X digital dengan tujuh kali penembakan sehingga diperoleh hasil citra radiografi dengan resolusi yang baik. Citra radiografi yang dihasilkan dievaluasi lebih lanjut untuk mendapatkan data cacat dan dimensi PEB U3Si2/Al densitas 4,8 gU/cm3pasca iradiasi antara lain lebar meat, lebar PEB, jarak meat-cladding, jarak batas meat-cladding sisi kanan kiri pada sisi jauh (SJ) dan sisi dekat (SD). Hasil analisis menggunakan radiografi sinar-X menunjukkan adanya bercak putih pada cladding bagian tengah PEB U3Si2/Al densitas 4,8 gU/cm3dengan burn up 20%. Penyebab keberadaan bercak putih tersebut harus dibuktikan dengan menggunakan metode uji merusak salah satunya yaitu analisis metalografi. Sementara itu, PEB U3Si2/Al densitas 4,8 gU/cm3 dengan burn up 40 dan 60 % tidak ditemukan adanya indikasi cacat permukaan dan cacat lainnya. Data hasil pengukuran dimensi menunjukkan tidak terdapat kerusakan dan perubahan dimensi signifikan yang menunjukkan bahwa integritas bahan bakar tetap terjaga setelah PEB U3Si2/Al densitas 4,8 gU/cm3 diiradiasi di teras RSG-GAS.Kata kunci: PEB, U3Si2/Al, 4,8 gU/cm3, uji tak merusak, radiografi sinar-X.
Teaching Copyright Law through Participatory Involvement in an Unconference Setting
Authors: McCormick Amanda , Adams Stephanie A. , Dunbar Hope , Mclean-Plunkett Sarah
Published: April 2020

An “unconference” is an attempt by librarians and other professionals to work outside of the traditional conference model. Presenters are encouraged to break out of traditional modes of presentation and try new methods of engaging with the participants. We submitted an idea for a session focused on demystifying domestic and international copyright law and discussing how the law affects libraries and archives. Modern librarianship demands at least a basic understanding of copyright and intellectual property issues, and librarians have reported that they lack training and knowledge in this area. We determined that we did not want to present a formal lecture on copyright in libraries, especially given the freedom and intellectual experimentation encouraged by an unconference setting. Instead, we determined that the best way to present copyright principles would be to share examples of real-life scenarios with the participants and assist them in applying the principles of copyright law to those situations. We hoped that participants would build confidence in their ability to respond when copyright issues arose at the workplace. This paper outlines the approach we took to prepare and present this unconventional session, and it includes an assessment of the results.

NEUROECONOMIA: PERSPECTIVA HISTÓRICA, PRINCIPAIS CONTRIBUIÇÕES E INTERPRETAÇÕES PARA A TEORIA ECONÔMICA
Authors: De Faveri Dinorá Baldo , De Resende Max Cardoso
Published: April 2020

Este artigo faz um levantamento da literatura existente sobre neuroeconomia, com o objetivo de apresentar as suas descobertas e visões do comportamento humano e como elas se diferenciam da abordagem clássica, em especial, no processo de tomada de decisão. As descobertas da neuroeconomia permitem indagar a abordagem tradicional da aversão ao risco, preferência temporal e altruísmo através do uso de técnicas de medição de atividade cerebral que realçam as partes do cérebro envolvidas na resolução de problemas. Entre as principais contribuições, destacam-se: (i) a premissa de utilidade direta dada ao dinheiro, contrário ao suposto pela economia clássica, ao mostrar que os efeitos dos neurotransmissores (hormônios) são ativados por uma grande variedade de elementos reforçadores, como rostos de pessoas atraentes, desenhos, carros esportivos, cocaína e dinheiro em espécie, e; (ii) o processo de tomada de decisão é, na verdade, uma questão de entendimento de como o corpo e o cérebro respondem e usam informação sobre incerteza. Destaca-se, também, que, embora a neuroeconomia seja um campo de estudo relativamente novo, suas contribuições se enaltecem pelo fato de fornecer novas formas de analisar o processo decisório e aprofundar o debate sobre o comportamento dos agentes quanto às suas escolhas.

Published: April 2020

Absorver novos conhecimentos e tecnologias no agronegócio é imprescindível em um contexto no qual a população mundial aumenta aceleradamente, impulsionando a demanda por produtos agrícolas, que devem ser produzidos de modo a preservar os recursos naturais. O Brasil é o segundo maior produtor de grãos do mundo e essa posição precisa ser mantida para garantir os estoques mundiais de alimentos. Um dos Estados que se destaca na produção de grãos, especialmente de soja, sendo o maior produtor nacional, é o Mato Grosso. Nesse sentido, o estudo aborda um contexto de sistema integrado de produção que envolve Integração Lavoura, Pecuária e Floresta (ILPF), permitindo identificar elementos inerentes ao processo de Capacidade Absortiva (CA) e às suas fases (adquirir, assimilar, transformar e explorar). Além disso, identifica as fontes de conhecimento e tecnologia que as unidades de produção têm a seu dispor no Estado de Mato Grosso. A abordagem na forma de estudos de caso múltiplos vale-se de dados qualitativos obtidos via entrevistas semiestruturadas com gestores das unidades de produção. Os resultados obtidos permitem observar, empiricamente, que a CA possibilita que os gestores adquiram novos conhecimentos e tecnologias que, somados às suas experiências, fornecem as bases necessárias para que as unidades de produção analisadas adotem um sistema de produção mais complexo e tido como sustentável, a ILPF.

Asthenic type of constitution and low body weight are traditionally associated with hereditary disorders (dysplasia) of connective tissue (HDCT). Another specific signs of HDCT is dolichostenomelia (skeletal imbalances). The prevalence of signs of dysembryogenesis and skeletal imbalances in young people depending on sex, type of constitution and body mass deficiency have not been previously assessed.

Materials and methods. We examined 967 practically healthy people aged 18 to 25 years (330 boys and 637 girls) and 119 boys with a diagnosis of body weight deficiency by help general examination, phenotypic and anthropometric examinations.

Results. Most bone signs of dysembryogenesis significantly often detected in young men: keel-shaped chest deformity (4% vs 1%, p 0.01) and funnel chest deformity (19% vs 9%, p 0.01) deformations of thorax, high palate (39% vs 28%, p 0.01), the growth of teeth (36% vs 19%, p 0.01) and dolichostenomelia. Girls are characterized by a high frequency of joint hypermobility (50% vs 24%) and atrophic striae (30% vs 14%, p 0.01). The bone signs (symptoms of arachnodactyly and chest deformities) detected more often in people with body weight deficiency, and the skin signs and joint hypermobility revealed more often in young people with normotrophy. Comparison of the frequency of signs of dysembryogenesis and skeletal imbalances in groups with asthenic and normal constitution did not reveal differences. All of external signs were found with equal frequency in individuals with different types of physique.

Conclusions. Body weight deficiency in young men is closely related to bone signs of dysembryogenesis, while the asthenic type of constitution is not a reliable marker of connective tissue defect.

A study of intrahepatic blood flow by polyhepatography and evaluation of endothelial function by peripheral arterial tonometry in patients with essential hypertension and coronary heart disease was conducted. The study included 105 people. The subjects were divided into three groups: patients with hypertension, coronary heart disease in combination with hypertension, and a group of healthy people. In all observed cases, except for the healthy group, hemodynamic changes were detected. The features of impaired intrahepatic blood flow in patients with cardiovascular pathology were revealed. The nature of blood flow disorders largely depended on the etiologic factor. The endothelial dysfunction revealed in patients with cardiovascular disease. In patients with arterial hypertension in combination with or without coronary heart disease, a relationship was found between endothelial dysfunction and intrahepatic hemodynamic disorders. The relationship of endothelial dysfunction and intrahepatic hemodynamic disorders was established, in patients with hypertension in combination with coronary heart disease or without it. Therefore, the liver is involved in the pathological process, regardless of the form of myocardial damage in cardiovascular pathology. It is accompanied by varying degrees of severity of intrahepatic microcirculation disorders and endothelial dysfunction of the peripheral vascular bed. This may be a consequence of the universal reaction of the endothelium due to realized effect of risk factors for the development of cardiovascular diseases. In this regard, the liver can be considered as one of the target organs in patients with cardiovascular pathology.

Objective. Establish the relationship between the action of antiangiogenic factors sFLT-1 and endoglin, as well as marinobufagenin in the formation of symptoms of preeclampsia in the clinic and experiment.

Materials and methods. In the first experimental phase, preeclampsia-like state was simulated in pregnant rats, the changes in the content of substances reflected in the target tissues were studied, as well as the effect on their concentrations of anti-marinobufagenin antibodies. In the second (clinical) phase, changes in the content of sFlt-1 and endoglin-1 in placental tissues, as well as marinobufagenin in blood plasma and activity of Na+/K+-ATPase of erythrocytes in pregnant women with preeclampsia were studied.

Results. In rats, an increase in systolic blood pressure, and marinobufagenin plasma levels was observed during the formation of a preeclampsia-like condition. Administration of antibodies to marinobufagenin caused a decrease in blood pressure. Found that during the formation of a preeclampsia-like condition, there is an increase in the content of sFlt-1 in the placenta and thoracic aorta and endoglin in the placenta. In patients with preeclampsia, it was found that the increase in blood pressure occurs against the background of an increase in the content of marinobufagenin in blood plasma, as well as a decrease in the activity of Na+/K+-ATPase of erythrocytes. The formation of preeclampsia is accompanied by a significant increase in the level of antiangiogenic factors endoglin and sFlt-1 in the placenta.

Summary. In patients with preeclampsia, the development of clinical symptoms is accompanied by an increase in the placental tissues of the content of antiangiogenic factors endoglin and sFlt-1 and the content of marinobufagenin in blood plasma. The obtained data are confirmed by the results of an experiment performed on pregnant rats with modeling of preeclampsia-like condition.

Hirschsprungs disease usually manifests from the first days of life and is diagnosed in the newborn period. In some patients Hirschsprungs disease cant be diagnosed in the newborn period because of different forms of disease and clinical features. From 2008 to 2019 75 patients with Hirschsprungs disease were operated in the City Childrens Hospital No. 1. 21 patients had delayed diagnosis. 11 newborns didnt have very clear clinical symptoms, intestinal obstruction disappeared after decompression. 2 patients with associated chromosomal disorders were diagnosed with Hirschsprungs disease later because of. In some of older patients disease manifested with severe constipations. Also, we presented some clinical cases of major diagnostic errors in patients with Hirschsprungs disease. Conclusion. Diagnostic errors in patients with Hirschsprungs disease are associated with the lack of alertness of neonatologists and inadequate interpretation of clinical manifestations and X-ray study. For many years these children can be treated by different specialists before having surgical consult.

Published: April 2020

A study was carried out to evaluate the performance of improved varieties of tef and production technologies in the Becho district of Oromia, Central Ethiopia. Five improved tef varieties along with the local were selected and used as treatments (that is, Dega tef (T1), Guduru (T2), Kena (T3), Kora(T4), Quncho (T5) and Local (T6)) arranged in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with six replications using six farmers’ fields. Yield and yield-related parameters were analyzed using SAS statistical software version 9.0. Economic analysis/profitability, preference/acceptability, gender and nutrition, and environmental suitability data recording were performed to compare treatment advantages and identify the best performing variety/ies. All the yield and yield-related components were significantly different between the varieties at 5 % probability level %) except for plant height in which there was no significant difference among varieties. Variety Dega tef gave the highest grain yield with average grain yield of 3610.6kg/ha followed by Quncho and Kora and also had about 40% yield advantage over the local variety with average grain yield of 2577.83kg/ha and had about 116.95%, 110.25% and 90.80 % yield advantage over the national, regional and zonal average yield of tef in 2016/2017 Meher season of CSA data respectively. Based on farmer’s preference analysis variety Dega tef had high acceptability (75%) followed by Quncho (73%) and Kora (70%). Guduru variety has the least in acceptability (21%). As a result of the economic analysis showed that Dega tef variety had the maximum net benefit (79,536.69birr/ha) followed by Quncho (67,106.97birr/ha) and Kora (63,746.96birr/ha). Variety Guduru had the least net benefit result of about 53,648.17birr/ha. Based on the rules of decision making and the integrated scoring set for technology validation, two of the three improved varieties meet the requirements to be recommended. Therefore, we recommend Dega tef, Quncho, and Kora varieties for Becho areas and other areas with similar agro-ecological conditions in the central highlands of Ethiopia.

Background: The diagnosis and prognosis of patients with breast cancer is routinely carried out with biopsy of growth by H&E staining but it is not commonly practice with various immunomarkers including HER2/neu. However HER2/neu association in breast tumour patients with prognosis has not been studied much, so this study is aim to evaluate the frequency of HER2 (human epidermal growth factor receptor) amplification and its effects over prognosis among the patients with breast cancer.Methods: After ethical approval, retrospective observational study was conducted from October 2014 to September 2017. All operated patients with biopsy proven breast cancer, the patients having any stage of disease, with sufficient data present in hospital record and patients who received neo-adjuvant chemo-therapy/radio-therapy were included. Patients unfit for surgery due to co-morbidities like cardio renal diseases and patients having insufficient hospital record or who missed follow-ups were excluded. SPSS version 20.0 was used for data analysis for data analysis with qualitative data presented as frequency and percentages.Results: A Total 120 patients, 48(40%) had HER-2/ neu positive. Among the HER2 +ve patients, 17(35.4%) had local recurrence within 03 years while 21(43.7%) cases had distant recurrence. The disease free survival rate in 03 years was observed in 22(45.83%) out of 48 HER2 +ve cases.Conclusions: Study reveals 40% patients had HER-2/neu positive expression and was associated with poor outcomes and disease free survival time period in comparison to patient with HER-2/ neu negative.

Background: Lung cancer is most common cause of cancer related death in men and women world wise responsible for over 1 million death annually. Lung cancer is leading cause of cancer death in united states and worldwide. Lung cancer is the most common neoplasm contributing more frequent among males causing cancer related mortality in both sexes. Objective of this study was to radiological presentation in bronchogenic carcinoma along with   prevalence of pulmonary TB in a tertiary center.Methods: Total of 100 patients with histologically proven lung cancer, from July 2018 to June 2019 at a tertiary center Kota Rajasthan. Data of participants regarding demographics, history of smoking habit, clinical presentation, histopathological type, radiographic findings on chest radiograph, ultrasonography, computed tomography (CT) scan, Statistical analysis was performed using descriptive statistics of the collected data.Results: Most common age group of bronchogenic carcinomas was seen between 60-69 years of age (37%) with male predominance (82%).  smoking history present in about (80%) patients.  Most common radiological presentation was a mass lesion present in 91% patients (n=91) followed by unilateral hilar prominence present in 44% of patients (n=44). Other common finding includes mediastinal widening (38%), collapse (26%). pleural effusion (22%), metastasis (22%), cavitation (13%), consolidation (12%), bony erosion (11%), pneumothorax (5%), and pancost tumor (4%).  prevalence of pulmonary TB in bronchogenic carcinoma is 9% and this is due to high burden of pulmonary TB in India.Conclusions: In this study adenocarcinoma was found to be most common type of lung cancer. Smoking is most common risk factor. Pulmonary TB coexistence with bronchogenic carcinoma was more common. The local immunity is deteriorated in cancer cases.

Published: April 2020

Background: Depression is an emerging mental health condition and elderly population of the world is often affected by it. In the elderly, it often goes unnoticed and often burdens them.Methods: Two groups of population one from an old age home and the other from a community were selected. Data was collected using a Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) and a demographic form. The data was compiled and analyzed using Google Spreadsheets.Results: Depression rates were found in both, the old age home and the community. The rates were found higher in the old age home than the community. The demographic factors chronic illness, gender, educational status and marital status were found to be associated with depression.Conclusions: As depression in elderly is a fairly common phenomenon, it should be paid more attention. The elderly should receive intervention for the disease and be able to sustain it.

Published: April 2020

A Hydatid disease or Echinococcosis is a zoonotic disease caused by the larvae (metacestode) of the cestode species of the genus Echinococcus. Humans are the accidental hosts of the diseases; they usually acquire it from canines; which are the definite host. It can present with systemic cyst, while cardiac manifestation of the disease is rare, due to contractile property of the heart’s muscle fiber which provide resistance. In this case report, the patient is diagnosed with hydatid cyst in the inter ventricular septum; it’s diagnosis and its successful treatment with surgery and albendazole. As, inter ventricular septum hydatid cyst occurs in only 0.5-2% cases, it’s a unique case and its successful treatment and diagnosis can help the physicians in the future to treat a similar case as this.

Published: April 2020

Solid pseudopapillary neoplasms (SPN) are the most common as well as very rare pediatric tumors of the pancreas. Most of the literature is derived from adult SPNs. As per world health organization, these tumors considered as low grade malignant with excellent survival outcomes after complete surgical resection. We report a case of incidentally detected SPN in a 16-year-old female child with an ovarian cyst. She underwent pylorus preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy and ovarian cystectomy. Histopathology revealed well differentiated SPN of the pancreas head and ovarian cystadenoma. She is symptom-free at the 6th month follow up.
