Published: January 2024

Background and Purpose The additive effects of intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) before mechanical thrombectomy (MT) remain unclear. We aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of IVT prior to MT depending on the location of M1 occlusion.Methods We reviewed the cases of patients who underwent MT for emergent large-vessel occlusion of the M1 segment. Baseline characteristics as well as clinical and periprocedural variables were compared according to the location of M1 occlusion (i.e., proximal and distal M1 occlusion). The main outcome was the achievement of functional independence (modified Rankin Scale score, 0–2) at 3 months after stroke. The main outcomes were compared between the proximal and distal groups based on the use of IVT before MT.Results Among 271 patients (proximal occlusion, 44.6%; distal occlusion, 55.4%), 33.9% (41/121) with proximal occlusion and 24.7% (37/150) with distal occlusion underwent IVT prior to MT. Largeartery atherosclerosis was more common in patients with proximal M1 occlusion; cardioembolism was more common in those with distal M1 occlusion. In patients with proximal M1 occlusion, there was no association between IVT before MT and functional independence. In contrast, there was a significant association between the use of IVT prior to MT (odds ratio=5.30, 95% confidence interval=1.56–18.05, P=0.007) and functional independence in patients with distal M1 occlusion.Conclusion IVT before MT was associated with improved functional outcomes in patients with M1 occlusion, especially in those with distal M1 occlusion but not in those with proximal M1 occlusion.
The Literate Education of Early Christians, and Some of Its Unintended Consequences for Christian Exegesis
Authors: Morgan Teresa
Published: January 2024

The landscape of education under the early Roman principate was very diverse, but the teaching of literacy was dominated by scribal training or Graeco-Roman enkyklios paideia, “literate education”. This essay asks what kind of education the earliest Christian writers had, and offers some neglected evidence, which, it suggests, may also be evidence for Hellenistic Jewish education. It considers the role of imitation in Christian education, and how early Christian imitation is distinctive. Finally, it illustrates how the increasingly sophisticated education of some Christians influenced the way they read and interpreted their own earliest and most authoritative texts.
Ancient Israelite Scribal Apprenticeships
Authors: Schniedewind William M.
Published: January 2024

This article applies the anthropological model of apprenticeship learning as articulated by Jean Lave and Etienne Wegner to the study of ancient Israelite scribalism.  Apprenticeship learning created scribal “communities of practice,” and this can be identified in the ancient Hebrew inscriptional record as well as biblical texts.  The main Hebrew term for an “apprentice” is naʿar, and this term appears on Hebrew seals and seal impressions. Scribal skills were learned in a variety of professions such as administrators, soldiers, merchants, prophets, and priests, and each of these professions would have had their own “community of practice.” The close-knit relationships forged by apprenticeship learning is reflected in the use of familial language such as “son of” to express different professional scribal communities.

Molecular and Immunohistochemical Testing in Mesothelioma and Other Mesothelial Lesions
Authors: Hung Yin P. , Chirieac Lucian R.
Published: January 2024

Context.—

Molecular testing has increasingly been utilized in the evaluation of mesothelioma. Diffuse mesothelioma comprises multiple distinct genetic subgroups. While most diffuse mesotheliomas lack oncogenic kinase mutations and instead harbor alterations involving tumor suppressors and chromatin regulators, a minor subset of tumors is characterized by uncommon alterations such as germline mutations, genomic near-haploidization, ALK rearrangement, ATF1 rearrangement, or EWSR1::YY1 fusion.

Objective.—

To provide updates on the salient molecular features of diffuse mesothelioma, mesothelioma in situ, and other mesothelial lesions: well-differentiated papillary mesothelial tumor, adenomatoid tumor, peritoneal inclusion cyst, and others. We consider the diagnostic, prognostic, and predictive utility of molecular testing in mesothelial lesions.

Data Sources.—

We performed a literature review of recently described genetic features, molecular approaches, and immunohistochemical tools, including BAP1, MTAP, and merlin in mesothelioma and other mesothelial lesions.

Conclusions.—

Our evolving understanding of the molecular diversity of diffuse mesothelioma and other mesothelial lesions has led to considerable changes in pathology diagnostic practice, including the application of immunohistochemical markers such as BAP1, MTAP, and merlin (NF2), which are surrogates of mutation status. In young patients and/or those without significant asbestos exposure, unusual mesothelioma genetics such as germline mutations, ALK rearrangement, and ATF1 rearrangement should be considered.

Authors:   The Korean Association for the Study of Religious Education, Seo Hanseok
Published: January 2024

[Objective] This study explores the direction of re-education of the faithful in the Korean Catholic Church, integrating global citizenship education in response to the contemporary demands of the ecological crisis.
[Contents] This study first diagnoses the reality of the re-education of the faithful in the Church through data such as the ‘Statistical Analysis Report of the Korean Catholic Church’ and ‘Religious Consciousness and Faith Life of Catholics’, analyzes the practice of Pope Francis’ ecological theology and the response to the ecological crisis of the Korean Catholic Church, and proposes the idea of transforming the existing re-education of the faithful into a model of Catholic global citizenship education that revives the call of the times.
[Conclusions] The re-education in front-line parishes must be a lifelong education for cultivating global citizenship(“Catholic civic education”) at the social and ecological levels, where the common consensus(“Synodalitas”) is realized through mutual learning. To achieve this, Catholic civic education should be actively utilized through various organizations and committees that engage in ecological environmental movements inside and outside the Church.

Authors: Melgarejo Ana Belén , Tubert Gloria , Guitelman Mirtha , Figurelli Silvina , Lescano Sebastián , Guevara Martín
Published: January 2024

Introducción: los prolactinomas son los adenomas hipofisarios funcionantes más frecuentes y la primera opción de tratamiento es la farmacológica en la mayoría de los casos. La cirugía está indicada en pacientes con resistencia o con intolerancia a los Agonistas Dopaminérgicos (AD).

Objetivos: evaluar las características clínicas, bioquímicas y por imágenes de un grupo de pacientes con prolactinomas que requirieron Cirugía Endoscópica Endonasal (CEE) y analizar los resultados quirúrgicos.

Material y métodos: se analizaron en forma retrospectiva las historias clínicas de 17 pacientes (8 mujeres /9 varones) con diagnóstico de prolactinoma pertenecientes a dos hospitales de la ciudad de Buenos Aires, los cuales fueron intervenidos quirúrgicamente en el periodo comprendido entre enero de 2011 y junio de 2021. Se analizaron las indicaciones de la cirugía y los resultados quirúrgicos obtenidos, y se realizó una revisión de la literatura referente al tema.

Resultados:Las indicaciones para la cirugía en los 17 pacientes fueron: 8 resistencia a los AD, 2 intolerancia a los AD, 2 apoplejía tumoral, 2 fístula de líquido cefalorraquídeo (LCR), 1 adenoma quístico, 1 compromiso visual severo y 1 macroadenoma por sospecha de adenoma no funcionante (ANF). Según el tamaño tumoral, se clasificaron en 16 macroadenomas (Ma), 5 de ellos > 4 cm o gigantes (G), y sólo una paciente con microadenoma (Mi) e intolerancia a los AD. Se logró la resección total en 8 pacientes, subtotal en 5 y parcial en 4. Se obtuvo la remisión bioquímica en 7 casos (41,2%) con cirugía (1 Mi /5 Ma/1 G) y los 10 restantes (6 Ma/4 G) requirieron terapia farmacológica y/o radioterapia (RT) adyuvante, de los cuales 5 se encuentran con enfermedad activa. Publicaciones recientes avalan el resurgimiento del tratamiento quirúrgico para este subtipo de adenomas, sobre todo en microadenomas, debido principalmente al perfeccionamiento de la técnica quirúrgica, que permitió obtener mejores resultados postoperatorios en relación a la remisión bioquímica y menor tasa de complicaciones.

Conclusión.La CEE permite una alta tasa de curación en microprolactinomas y macroprolactinomas no invasores debiendo ser considerada como una opción viable y concreta durante la evaluación multidisciplinaria de estos pacientes.
Polarization measuring astronomical instrument: an improved method
Authors:   Astronomical Institute of the Romanian Academy, Popescu Adrian Sabin
Published: January 2024

"This work deals with a new theoretical method proposed with the intent of improving the quality of astronomical polarimetric data. The theoretical method is ap- plied to one of the simplest possible birefringent type polarizer device constructs, being a hybrid measurement procedure between the fixed position angles and the continu- ous rotation records of the modulator (in our case, the quarter-wave plate) methods. It can be suitable for some astronomical applications in Planetary Science and Stellar As- trophysics, as their polarimetric parameters (polarization degree, polarization angle and Stokes parameters) have relatively stable values, allowing for the iterative proposed pro- cedure. The validity of the procedure is expected to be practically proven by comparing the quality of the polarization parameters obtained with it, on the proposed instrument, with the results obtained with a similar standardized instrument on the market."

El motivo de la soledad en la trayectoria poética de Concha Lagos: La soledad de siempre (1958), Tema fundamental (1961), El cerco (1971) y Teoría de la inseguridad (1981)
Authors: Alava Carrascal Maria Eugenia
Published: January 2024

La poeta Concha Lagos se inscribió en el panorama cultural con especial soltura sobre todo a través de la dirección de la revista Cuadernos de Ágora desde 1956 hasta 1964; la fundación de la colección Ágora de poesía en 1955 y del premio Ágora de poesía en 1962. Concepción Gutiérrez Torrero (1907-2007) nació en Córdoba y murió en una residencia de ancianos en Las Rozas de Madrid. Logró abrirse un hueco en la industria cultural de la capital que estaba comenzado a despuntar muy lentamente en los años de autarquía. La madurez adquirida a raíz de una vida de incomodidades y renuncias había llevado a Concha Lagos a convertirse en una mujer con el potencial suficiente para convertirse en un agente cultural fundamental del medio siglo en España. En su poesía, que comenzó a ver la luz editorial a partir de 1954, a pesar de que la escritura de ese primer libro, Balcón, hubiese comenzado mucho antes, se plasmarían durante las décadas subsiguientes todas las preocupaciones de un universo para entonces ya muy personal. En el presente trabajo emplearemos las recientemente editadas memorias de Concha Lagos para extraer pasajes críticos en torno al sentimiento de soledad que, como ella misma plantea, es una constante en su trayectoria poética. Efectivamente, todos los ejes fundamentales de la poética de Lagos se orquestan en torno al motivo de la soledad de una manera u otra. Plantearemos entonces los diferentes tipos de soledad que pueden deducirse del texto autobiográfico y trataremos de identificarlos también en las obras poéticas objeto de comentario. El objetivo fundamental es desentrañar cómo ese sentimiento fue polisémico para la poeta y cómo es, en efecto, resemantizado a lo largo de su trabajo poético para alcanzar una conclusión alineada con planteamientos filosóficos de existencialismo vitalista.

Authors: Gloël Matthias
Published: January 2024

El presente estudio está dedicado a la obra Hespaña Libertada de Bernarda Ferreira de Lacerda, cuya primera parte se publicó en 1618 y la segunda de forma póstuma en 1673. Queremos ahondar fundamentalmente en dos aspectos; primero, la pregunta de que, si el hecho de ser mujer la autora incide de alguna forma en la redacción, cuestión suscitada en los estudios recientes del siglo XXI acerca de la obra y, segundo, la pregunta de las intenciones y lealtades de la autora respecto a la dinastía de los Habsburgo y los reinos de Portugal y Castilla, discusión existente en las investigaciones desde hace ya más tiempo. En este segundo aspecto se discute también el hecho de que como portuguesa publicó la obra en castellano.

A series of eight N-(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)-2-(4-arylpiperazin-1-yl)acetamides was synthesized as potential anticancer agents. Reacting 2-aminobenzimidazole (1) with 2-chloroacetyl chloride in the presence of the base gave N-(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)-2-chloroacetamide (2) which then reacted with substituted piperazines 3a-h to give the targeted compounds 4a-h. The cytotoxic activity of lung (A549) and liver (HepG2) human cancer cells was assessed using the MTT assay. The results demonstrated that IC50 values of 4b, 4c, 4g, and 4h were 4.8 ?M, 13.3 ?M, 5.1?M, and 11.5 ?M on HepG2 cells, respectively. Similarly, the IC50 values of 4b, 4c, 4g, and 4h were 56.9 ?M, 46.6 ?M, 53.2 ?M, and 59.4 ?M on A549 cells after 48 h treatment, respectively. The compounds showed higher anticancer activity against HepG2 cells than A549 cells. Compound 4b and 4g mediated cytotoxicity in HepG2 cells by inducing apoptotic cell death, as revealed by fluorescence microscopy. An in silico study was carried out to study the interactions with the active binding site of different receptors. Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 crystal structures (PDB ID; 4ASD) indicated a strong binding mode of 4g compound (?G=-10.28 kcal/mol), corresponding with their cytotoxic activities..

Kegiatan usaha yang dilakukan harus dilandasakan pada aturan hukum yang berlaku didalam berbangsa dan bernegara. Dengan adanya pemberlakuan hukum tersebut maka pihak yang melakukan pelanggaran atas aturan yang ditetapkan menjadikan terciptanya masalah hukum yang akhirnya berurusan dengan terhadap aparat penegakan hukum sehingga menimbulak prespektif ditengah masyarakat yaitu adanya kejahatan yang dilakukan orang atau badan hukum. Semakin marak terjadinya kecurangan dalam pengisian tabung gas LPG yang dilakukan oleh agen-agen LPG terhadap ketidaksesuaian berat isi gas LPG yang bertujuan untuk mendapatkan keuntungan yang besar dari hasil penjualan

Metode Penilitan yang digunakan Yuridis Normatif dikarenakan Suatu penelitan haruslah dibutuhkan segala sesuatu cara dan bentuk untuk mendapatkan hasil dan kesimpulan terhadap atas yang diteliti untuk dikembangkan menjadi suatu karya ilmiah.

Pada dasarnya pelaku usaha baik badan atau orang melakukan tindakan pengoplosan Gas LPG (Liquified Petroleum Gas) dikarenakan faktor untuk mempertahankan dan memperbanyak profit atas kegiatan usaha yang dilakukan dan juga didasarkan karena faktor ekonomi Dengan pengawasan dan regulasi yang diperketat oleh pemerintah dan semua unsur aparat penegak hukum maka terhadap yang dilakukan oleh pelaku usaha atas pengisian, pengangkutan dan penyimpanan terhadap tabung dan pengendalian atas distribusi terhadap bisnis tabung gas yang aman dan legal

Dengan pendekatan non penal maka terciptalah kondusifitas dan pelaksanaan hukum dengan baik karena telah dicegah dari dini kepada setiap orang atau badan yang melakukan kegiatan usaha penyaluran dan pendistribusian tabung gas 3 kg.
Estimación de la producción de materia seca y dinámica del crecimiento vegetativo de tres gramíneas en el sur de Coahuila, México

Published: January 2024

Se evaluaron las especies: zacate amor (Eragrostis intermedia Hitchc.), festuca (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) y zacate ovillo (Dactylis glomerata L.) con el propósito de determinar la dinámica de crecimiento vegetativo y generar un modelo de estimación de la materia seca a partir de la elongación de las láminas de las hojas, del número de vástagos por planta y unidades calor acumuladas, y otro de predicción de la elongación de las láminas de hojas a partir de las unidades calor acumuladas. Los modelos para estimar la producción de materia seca de E. intermedia y F. arundinacea se generaron considerando la elongación de láminas como variable independiente (Yi 

β1Xi+εi), mientras que para estimar las de D. glomerata se incluyó la variable número de vástagos por planta (Yi β0+β1 X1i+β2 X2i+εi). Para estimar la materia seca a partir de las unidades calor acumuladas se generó el modelo Yi=β 0+β1Xi +εi. En cuanto a la estimación de la elongación de láminas a partir de las unidades calor, se utilizó el modelo Yi=β 1Xi +εi. El ciclo de crecimiento de verano presentó diferencias en la dinámica de crecimiento foliar entre especies. La tasa de aparición de hojas fue mejor en verano. En la proporción de pesos de lámina: vaina + tallo en verano, el zacate ovillo fue ligeramente superior a las gramíneas festuca y zacate amor mientras que, en invierno, la producción de materia seca cosechada resultó de las láminas de las hojas.
safety and efficacy of intravenous thrombolysis for ischemic stroke in an elderly patient with thrombocytopenia
Authors: Wijaya Ricky Candra
Published: January 2024

Background: Strokes remain as one of the diseases with high mortality and morbidity, which can be prevented through prompt and concise treatment. Intravenous thrombolysis (IV-rTPA) is the mainstay treatment for hyperacute ischemic stroke with onsets of less than 4.5 hours. However, it has several contraindications that should be monitored, one of them being thrombocytopenia. Objectives: This case report details the use of IV-rTPA in a geriatric patient with thrombocytopenia to highlight its efficacy and safety. Case: An 85-year-old woman was admitted to the emergency ward with weakness in the left extremities, slurred speech, and upward-right gaze one hour prior to ER admission. She had a significant history of hypertension and type II diabetes mellitus. A physical examination revealed a muscle strength of +5/+1, palsy in the left 7th and 12th cranial nerves, an NIHSS score of 15, and a RACE score of 7. The laboratory result was positive for thrombocytopenia (96,000/μl). IV-rTPA was administered, and two hours later, the patient's NIHSS score raised to 11. During the IV-RTPA administration, there was minor gum bleeding, which was considered insignificant. The patient was admitted to the ICU and observed for the next 72 hours. No signs of bleeding or clinical deterioration were observed during that period. Numerous studies have confirmed IV-rTPA's efficacy in acute ischemic stroke treatment if administered before 4.5 hours of onset. Thrombocytopenia is known as a contraindication of IV-rTPA, which may increase the risk of bleeding. In this case, IV-rTPA was administered due to hyperacute onset and no known history of bleeding despite low platelet count. Conclusion: IV-rTPA may be considered if the benefits outweigh the risks, coupled with thorough monitoring of the patient's condition.
