Left bundle branch pacing: the new kid on the block
Authors: Gurgu Andra , Cozma Dragos , Chelu Mihail G.
Published: February 2021

Right ventricular pacing is has deletorius effects due to left ventricular dysynchrony and remodelling and may result in heart failure. Over the last decade, His bundle pacing has emerged as the most physiologic form pacing. However, it has limitations, such as higher capture thresholds, lower R wave amplitudes, atrial oversensing, and increased risk for lead revisions from late threshold increase with subsequent premature battery depletion, which has prevented a wider adoption of this technique in routine clinical practice. Left bundle branch pacing has been developed as an alternative physiologic pacing strategy that overcomes most of His bundle pacing limitations. This article summarizes the current status of left bundle branch pacing. Keywords: His bundle pacing, left bundle branch pacing, cardiac resynchronization, therapy heart failure.

Published: February 2021

Introduction – The current scientific literature suggests similar or even better catheter contact on caval regions of the cavo-tricuspid isthmus (CTI) compared to the more medial or annular part. Yet CTI ablation can be challenging owing to instability at the inferior vena cava (IVC) edge. No study specifically addressed the issue of catheter-tissue contact on caval/mid/annular regions of the CTI. Methods – Twenty-seven patients (22 men, 67±12 years) underwent typical atrial flutter ablation with a contact force (CF) sensing catheter (Tacticath 75, Abott) and were prospectively included. Operators aimed at optimizing CF for all RF pulses. The product of CF, time (force-time integral; FTI) and delivered power (FTPI) has been proposed as an estimate of lesion size. In a subset of 8 consecutive pts, electrograms (EGM) of all RF lesions were analyzed. Annular CTI was defined as sites showing both atrial and ventricular near-field bipolar EGM. Mid CTI sites had only atrial near field bipolar EGM on both distal and proximal dipoles (or distal only in case of superior-to-inferior approach). Caval sites had near-field bipolar EGM only in distal dipole, while the proximal one was inferiorly located. Results – Complete persistent (at 30 min) CTI block was obtained in all patients. A steerable sheath was used in 12 pts (44%). Procedure duration was 93±30 min, RF delivery time 10±6 min, fluoroscopy time 14±8 min. Mean CF was 15.8±5.9 g. CF was significantly lower (11.1±9.7 g) at the caval CTI than at mid CTI (19.9±11.8 g) and annular CTI (20±12.2 g; p=0.001). CF and FTI were higher during sinus rhythm than during Fl (23.2±15.3 vs 18.5±15.4 g, p=0.04 and 677±432 vs 532±357 gs, p=0.03). Use of a sheath improved mean CF (24.4±12.5 vs 18.4±14.9 g, p=0.01) but this was not significant at caval sites (17.5±11.4 vs 12.6±10.7 g, p=0.31). Conclusion – Applied forces are significantly lower at the IVC edge during CTI ablation. This supports the use of a steerable sheath in challenging cases.
Permanent His bundle pacing and atrioventricular node ablation for rate control in permanent atrial fibrillation. A case report
Authors: Pestrea Catalin , Gherghina Alexandra , Pintilie Irina , Ortan Florin
Published: February 2021

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a serious cause of morbidity and mortality in the general population, with an increasing prevalence with the improvement in diagnosis. The best current treatment approach is catheter ablation (mainly isolation of the pulmonary veins), but this is ineffective in permanent atrial fi brillation. Rate control is frequently mandatory in these patients and the most effective technique is atrioventricular node ablation. But, since this procedure renders the patient pacemaker dependent, one should be very cautious with the pacing mode selected for long-term pacing. We present the case of a 45 year-old male with permanent atrial fi brillation and drug-refractory rapid ventricular rate and tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy, who underwent catheter ablation of the atrioventricular node and permanent selective His bundle pacing. Following the procedure, the patient went from a rapid, irregular rhythm to a controlled, regular rhythm without a change in QRS morphology. The follow-up after three months showed near complete recovery of the left ventricle and the disappearance of heart failure symptoms.

UMA ANTROPOLOGIA DO IRREDUTÍVEL: O HOMEM CONTEMPORÂNEO À LUZ DO PÓS-HUMANISMO
Authors: Bogo Fabio Henrique Medeiros
Published: February 2021

Diante do abundante saber produzido sobre o homem pela perspectiva do humanismo, o movimento filosófico pós-humanista surge não só sob a forma de uma crítica contumaz à dogmatização limitante do homem como conceito, como também como uma proposta alternativa de elaboração de uma antropologia filosófica ampliada a tal ponto que contempla um plano de consistência global no qual o homem figura tão somente como um de seus coabitantes. Mesmo a primazia e exclusividade sobre a capacidade de produção ontológica, estética e epistêmica lhe são destituídas, na medida em que máquinas, compreendidas aqui em seu sentido tão extenso quanto possível, são capazes de produzir arte, saber e subjetivação. Em um cenário em que o homem se descobre multiplicidade irredutível, o pós-humanismo se apresenta como estratégia discursiva com uma função ética, posto que capaz de conferir-lhe cidadania sem aprisioná-lo nas fronteiras de seu próprio conceito.

ANÁLISE DE UM CASO CLÍNICO DE TDAH E SUAS CONSEQUENCIAS NO CONTEXTO FAMILIAR, SOCIAL E EMOCIONAL
Authors: Soares da Silva Márcia
Published: February 2021

O Transtorno do Déficit de Atenção com Hiperatividade (TDAH) é um problema bastante comum e se caracteriza pela movimentação excessiva do indivíduo, falta de atenção, impaciência, impulsividade, distração, e isso lhe traz problemas de rejeição, baixa auto-estima e várias situações que, com a devida medida podem ser minimizadas ou mesmo eliminadas. Por isso, o TDAH é considerado o transtorno mais diagnosticado na atualidade e se apresenta como tema frequente e controverso na sociedade. Pois, os valores e significados que subjazem as concepções sobre este assunto se refletem no modo como as pessoas manejam a situação. Partindo dessas premissas, este estudo analisou um caso clínico de TDAH e suas consequências no contexto familiar, social e emocional salientando a complexidade do fenômeno ao abordar a diversidade de influências que o envolve. A metodologia foi através de entrevista narrativa para analisar a história de um jovem diagnosticado com tal transtorno. A partir daí, os resultados apontaram que, a percepção da família do jovem sobre o transtorno é individualizante, patologizante, e o conhecimento, inconsistente. Assim sendo, sugere-se que este tema seja debatido em maior profundidade, pois, devido à falta de informação, muitos pais passam por dificuldade de relacionamento com crianças com TDAH, bem como é possível imaginar o quanto as gerações anteriores devem ter sofrido, passando por situações difíceis sem ao menos ter consciência do distúrbio. Entretanto, um tratamento adequado supõe intervenção psicológica, pedagógica e médica, e técnicas de mudança de comportamento, que envolva todas essas áreas, incluindo o treinamento dos pais.

Published: February 2021

RESUMO O ano de 2010 marcou o início da imigração haitiana no Brasil. A entrada dos haitianos via Tabatinga, no Amazonas, começou a ser notada em fevereiro de 2010, logo após o terremoto, que sacudiu violentamente o Haiti, e em particular a capital, Porto Príncipe. O primeiro grupo de haitianos chegou à na cidade de Maringá, no Estado do Paraná em 2010, seguidos por outros fluxos migratórios internacionais. O Objetivo da pesquisa é discutir a presença dos migrantes haitianos na região metropolitana de Maringá, seus desdobramentos e por fim mostrar atuação das políticas Públicas e assistencialismo social local frente a este grupo. A metodologia adotada consistiu na pesquisa bibliográfica, histórica e na observação in loco do fenômeno, mormente, na cidade de Maringá PR. Por fim, o estudo procurou avaliar os principais aspectos da problemática, que é identificar quais as políticas públicas locais e ações de acolhimentos voltadas aos Haitianos. O resultado final da pesquisa demonstrou que há na cidade de Maringá, apenas ações não Governamentais de acolhidas aos migrantes Haitianos e que ação de punho político nas ações pública, ainda está em fase inicial de criação de projetos voltados para políticas públicas para esse grupo de migrantes na cidade.
GERMANIDADE: ASPECTOS CULTURAIS E IDENTITÁRIOS EM MARECHAL CÂNDIDO RONDON-PR

Published: February 2021

Este artigo se propõe a discutir como os discursos que se referem à germanidade estão presentes no cotidiano e na paisagem de Marechal Cândido Rondon, no extremo oeste do Paraná. A identidade germânica se manifesta através de aspectos culturais, sendo materializada na paisagem do município. Torna-se pertinente, neste contexto, analisar as investidas criadas pelo Poder Público, mas também pelos indivíduos cotidianamente, com a finalidade de manter a memória germânica viva, não permitindo que esta caia no esquecimento conforme passam as gerações, mas possibilitando que a memória reviva através das manifestações culturais. Para elaboração deste artigo foram utilizados referenciais bibliográficos, documentos históricos, além das próprias percepções de quem vivenciou as dinâmicas do ambiente em questão. Assim como outras cidades germânicas, Marechal Cândido Rondon preserva elementos culturais em favor da manutenção das memórias, mas não apenas limitando-se a isto, também visando o desenvolvimento turístico do município, constituindo um verdadeiro projeto de germanização.
O ENSINO DE FILOSOFIA PARA CRIANÇAS
Authors: Tibério Juliana
Published: February 2021

O presente artigo tem como tema elucidar a importância do programa de filosofia nos anos iniciais para a formação da criança. A investigação deste tema é conduzida a partir do seguinte problema: por que é necessário o ensino de filosofia nas séries iniciais? O programa de filosofia para crianças é um método elaborado pelo filósofo americano Matthew Lipman, no final da década de 60. O objetivo geral desta pesquisa é mostrar como Lipman transformou a sala de aula tradicional em uma comunidade de investigação através do ensino de filosofia. Em seguida, apresentar sua chegada ao Brasil. A partir disso, buscou-se validar a hipótese de que  o ensino de filosofia para crianças substitui o “aprender a filosofia” para o “aprender a filosofar”, apostando no desenvolvimento da autonomia do sujeito. Desse modo, o processo de aprendizagem é uma descoberta coletiva através de discussões de conceitos e debates substituindo a memorização de conteúdo do ensino tradicional. A metodologia utilizada para produção desse estudo foi à pesquisa bibliográfica. O artigo se justifica, prioritariamente, pela ausência do ensino de filosofia nos anos iniciais, principalmente, nas escolas públicas.
An axiological approach to mental maps: Croatian high-school students’ views of Europe
Authors:   University of Zagreb, Croatia, ŠAKAJA Laura
Published: February 2021

The paper presents the results of a survey carried out in the academic year 2016/2017 and deals with the attitudes of Croatian high-school students towards European countries. This survey repeats an earlier study from 2000/2001 and thus allows a comparison of the opinions of young people from different generations. The data indicate a shift in residential preferences towards the Nordic countries, while preferences towards the Latin/Mediterranean countries have weakened. Applying an axiological approach to the original model of mental maps made it possible to gain insight into the value criteria used to assess the residential desirability of countries. Groups of evaluation criteria were identified, the most important of which being the following: (a) Employment opportunities, economic conditions and economic development; (b) Culture, way of life, cultural landscape; (c) Political and legal order, social security, and freedom; and (d) Ethnopsychological factors.
An Evaluation of Peace Building Strategies in Southwestern Nigeria: Quantitative and Qualitative Examples
Authors: Lamidi Kazeem Oyedele
Published: February 2021

This paper evaluated the peace building architecture by United Nations using Southwestern Nigeria as a reference point. Quantitative data were generated from responses to the questionnaire. In addition, the qualitative data were gathered from two sources: interview response and theme coding of Focus Group Discussion. Data collected were analysed using frequency, percentage, mean value and standard deviation as well as content analysis methods. From the descriptive statistics, this paper found out that quick intervention, cross-examination, negotiation, and mediation of differences were evaluated to be the key building strategies adopted for the enhancement of peaceful co-existence in local communities within Southwestern Nigeria. In spite of those good remarks, poor nature of ethnic cooperation underlines the causal reason for incessant communal conflicts in Southwestern Nigeria. It therefore concluded that peace building strategies in Southwestern Nigeria were evidently operationalised with observable inconsistencies from the qualitative data.

The article discusses the problem of the formation of digital libraries content. The selection of materials to be uploaded to the digital library is as important as the acquisition for traditional libraries. One of the options for solving this problem is an expert assessment of materials that «claim» to be included in the electronic library. For large scientific digital libraries, such as the B.N. Yeltsin Presidential Library, «Scientific Heritage of Russia», National Electronic Library (in terms of scientific literature), an assessment should be carried out by a wide range of highly qualified specialists in relevant fields of science. The proposed work describes a WEB-oriented expert system for selecting materials for inclusion in digital libraries This System was worked out by Joint Supercomputer Centre of RAS specialists in 2019. The structure of the system, its functions, profiles of the metadata included in it, and the results of practical implementation are given.

El objetivo fue evaluar la capacidad fitorremediadora de la especie vegetal H. ranunculoides L. f., en relación a la contaminación de muestras de agua con mercurio a diferentes concentraciones. Para lo cual se realizaron tres etapas, la primera fue la recolección y el cultivo en sistema hidropónico, la segunda la contaminación con mercurio (II) en muestras de agua en laboratorio y la tercera evaluar la capacidad fitorremediadora. Para el análisis del mercurio se usó la técnica de Espectrofotometría de Absorción Atómica (AAS). También se evaluó las alteraciones morfológicas y de composición.  La exposición de la especie vegetal a la contaminación con mercurio a las concentraciones de 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0 y 5.0 ppm duró 15 días. En los resultados, muestran que la concentración 1.0 ppm genera clorosis y a 5.0 ppm necrosis; en cuanto a la longitud de raíz, tallo y hojas se observó disminución proporcional a la concentración de mercurio. La morfología interna muestra alteraciones por el mercurio a nivel de pared celular, organización de tejidos y sistema vascular, tanto en raíz, tallo y hoja. En la composición se observó disminución del porcentaje de humedad, cenizas, proteínas, grasas y fibra e incremento del porcentaje de carbohidratos, en diferentes concentraciones. El factor de bioacumulación fue mayor a 1000 mg/L hasta la concentración 1.0 ppm de mercurio. El factor de traslocación en las concentraciones 0.1 y 0.5 ppm Hg2+ es > 1mg/L y en concentraciones de 1.0, 2.0 y 5.0 ppm Hg2+ el mercurio se encuentra en mayor proporción en raíz.

Published: February 2021

El asma es una enfermedad respiratoria obstructiva crónica con alta prevalencia en niños. Varios factores pueden desencadenar síntomas de asma, incluido el ejercicio, que puede conducir a la broncoconstricción inducida por el ejercicio (BIE). Aunque el ejercicio físico puede representar un factor de riesgo para desencadenar la obstrucción bronquial en los asmáticos, estudios también han indicado varios efectos positivos. Este artículo tiene como objetivo resumir la evidencia actual sobre los efectos del entrenamiento físico en niños con asma. Hay evidencia sustancial disponible sobre el tema. La mayoría de los hallazgos muestran que el ejercicio induce efectos positivos, incluido el aumento de la aptitud aeróbica, la disminución de los niveles de la BEI, así como un aumento tanto en el control de la enfermedad como en los niveles de calidad de vida en niños asmáticos. Se destaca la importancia de una prescripción de la intensidad del ejercicio adecuada y personalizada, cerca del umbral anaeróbico, para obtener los efectos positivos inducidos por el ejercicio. Por lo tanto, considerando la evidencia que muestra efectos beneficiosos y el hecho de que la práctica del ejercicio físico consiste en una terapia no farmacológica, segura y de bajo costo, el entrenamiento físico supervisado, personalizado e individualizado por parte de profesionales de la salud es recomendado para niños asmáticos.

Se presenta un caso clínico de Hiperplasia de Células Neuroendocrinas y la revisión de la literatura. Paciente lactante menor con cuadro de dificultad respiratoria, caracterizado por aleteo nasal, retracciones y taquipnea persistente acompañada de desaturación. Sin adecuada respuesta al uso de broncodilatadores. Por exámenes complementarios, panel viral negativo en dos ocasiones y epidemiología, se le diagnostica una bronquiolitis viral. Por no presentar mejoría se completan estudios, descartándose neumonía atípica, cardiopatía, epilepsia, reflujo gastroesofágico patológico y compromiso inmunológico. El diagnóstico fue determinado en base a la clínica, junto con imágenes en vidrio esmerilado característicos en lóbulo medio y língula. En su seguimiento mejora paulatinamente, requiriendo soporte de oxígeno hasta los dos años. La Hiperplasia de Células Neuroendocrinas es una patología intersticial pulmonar poco frecuente, cuyo diagnóstico es clínico y radiológico. Puede ser fácilmente confundida con desórdenes respiratorios comunes, por lo que es importante sospecharla para realizar un diagnóstico precoz. La mayor parte de los casos evolucionan con declinación de los síntomas, mejorando espontáneamente en meses o en los primeros años de vida.

The Spirit of 1914 in Austria-Hungary
Authors: Cornwall Mark
Published: February 2021

This article studies the “spirit of 1914” in the Habsburg monarchy, the myth that an enthusiastic mood prevailed across the empire during the first summer of the Great War when troops were sent off against the Serbian and Russian enemies. It seeks to explain how far this mood was spontaneous or directed from above by the state authorities, and finds that both interacted with each other as mobilization occurred. It also seeks through a range of voices to show the actual diversity of emotion in these early weeks of hostilities. Many young men enlisted in order to pursue an adventure, many imperial patriots or nationalists viewed the war as an opportunity for some “rebirth” for their cause; the press was largely unanimous in suggesting popular support for the war. However, underneath this façade many individuals were as much fearful as hopeful, particularly the older generation. The strict censorship of news from the start of the war obscured these negative voices, but we find them in diaries and memoirs of the time. These also suggest that the early excitement was short-lived. Many soldiers quickly experienced the horror of war, especially in the east, and felt changed utterly by the trauma. On the home front, the shock came more slowly as casualty lists and refugees surfaced. By October 1914 the initial expectations, encapsulated in the early “spirit”, were already waning. The state had to face the prospect of total war, where its ability to protect its population was fatally put to the test.

Kocbekovo Premišljevanje o Španiji
Authors: Peršin Peter Kovačič
Published: February 2021

EDVARD KOCBEK'S 'REFLECTION' ON SPAINDue to the Spanish Civil War, the ideological conflicts in the Catholic circles became more distinct. The clerical part, particularly the Slovenecdaily, which published biased articles on the Spanish Civil War in 1936 and 1937 with a special emphasis on condemning the rise of the popular front, understood the publication of Edvard Kocbek's essay as an attack on its views. Kocbek's purpose behind the Ponderingwas, however, to present a more balanced picture of the Spanish tragedy that was based on the reports by West European writers who favoured the Spanish republic.The Ponderingwas the central crystallising point that led to the final split in the Catholic circles, while at the same time stirring the left-wing political groups to start fighting for a common goal. But the main reason that it became the central crystallising point was the militant response by the right-wing Catholic group; the essay in itself would have otherwise been only considered a balanced representation of the situation in Spain, which were presented one-sidedly by the clerical press. This shows that political tensions on the territory of today's Slovenia had already reached their climax as early as a few years before the war, thus rendering a dialogue and a democratic compromise that could unite the Slovenians in a national defensive attitude impossible.
Zadnja bitka v Stalinovem imenu: Vittorio Vidali, komunizem na obalah Jadranskega morja in boj Informbiroja proti Titu (1947-1954)
Authors: Karlsen Patrick
Published: February 2021

The essay aims to analyse the "Adriatic communism" policy implemented in the period from World War II to the eve of the schism between Stalin and Tito in 1948, with the subsequent rift in relations between Yugoslavia and the Soviet Union and the expulsion of Belgrade from the socialist camp. The essay focuses on the figure of Vittorio Vidali, an Italian communist leader (born in Muggia, near Trieste) with a long and prominent militant role in the Soviet intelligence services as evidenced by his involvement in various events both in Europe and the United States.The choice to focus the analysis on Vittorio Vidali is based on the decisive role he played in the "Adriatic communism" in the stages immediately preceding the Tito–Stalin split and then during the years of the Cominform's opposition against the Party and the Yugoslav regime after 1948.

Authors: Zajc Marko
Published: February 2021

The paper attempts to present the important discussions on nationalism, Slovenianism and Yugoslavism from the early 1980s and call attention to the (inter)dependence of nationalism (and its perceptions) and the social system and social issues. It lays out reasons for the historical study of nationalism/the national question in Slovenia and Yugoslavia in the early 1980s. The paper presents a critical overview of the established periodisation of the 1980s in Slovenian public opinion and history and sketches out the basic contours of the period in question. The main part of the paper is the analysis of different attitudes towards the national question in the League of Communists of Yugoslavia. The conclusion establishes a connection between the interpretation of the national question and the interpretation of social property in the late self-management period.

Titoizem in konec Jugoslavije
Authors: Čepič Zdenko
Published: February 2021

Although the second Yugoslavia was often called Tito’s Yugoslavia in political parlance, the term Titoism was rarely used for its political regime and the structure of its government at the time. The term was closely connected to the person of Josip Broz Tito. The connection was based both on the name and on the fact that the term applied to events that happened during Tito’s rule. It is simply an eponym in the true sense of the word. On one hand, Titoism was the principle on which the second Yugoslavia was based, and on the other it was a method of governing. Titoism can also describe the Yugoslav type of socialism and its characteristic features, as well as the country in general. Titoism is not so much an ideology, but rather a practice. It is the government's means. Titoism is Yugoslavia as a country after World War II, it is the structure of the state administration, i.e. the federal government, and the principle on which it is based, i.e. the recognition of the nation’s right of self-determination, including the right to secede, as well as the country’s political system – the workers’ self-management. Everything that can be understood as Titoism was representative of the second Yugoslavia. On one hand, Titoism was the means for the country’s rise, its creation and development (progression), but on the other hand, Titoism already contained the seed of the country’s dissolution, its demise and the disintegration of the whole system known as Titoism. Of what was actually the end of the second Yugoslavia.

Published: February 2021

This present study analyzes the role played by the media during the controversy between Government of Pakistan and its Supreme Court in 2012. This study is particularly focused on the issues pertinent to the National Reconciliation Ordinance (NRO) case. It employed content analysis as research study and quantitatively examined the columns in the Pakistani newspapers; including, Dawn and Daily Jang for the one year time period in the year 2012. A conflicting relationship has been found between the government and judiciary concerning the National reconciliation ordinance (NRO). It was concluded that Dawn and Daily Jang, both newspapers, follow the same agenda about the NRO issue as both of these newspapers offered negative coverage of this issue. Compared to Jang, Dawn was more inclined to the negative framing of judiciary, and Jang was inclined to the negative reporting of government performance. Hence, the Pakistani Print media has framed the issues negatively between the government and the judiciary. Frequent negative slants were observed in Urdu newspaper as compared to English newspaper.

Authors:   University of Swabi, KPK, Arif Muhammad , Urooge Saima
Published: February 2021

The study is conducted to analyze the effect of various factors (i.e. Leverage (Lvg), Profitability (Prof), Business Risk (B.R), Liquidity (Lqd), and Growth Opportunities (GO)) on dividend policy (D.P) in the sample two non-financial sectors that are, food and electrical machinery from Pakistan stock Exchange. Total 30 firms have been taken, of which 20 firms from food sector and 10 from electrical machinery sector for a period of 8 years (2009-2016) by analyzing sample firms panel data. The results for both of the sectors that is generated through E-views via estimation of fixed effect model (F.E.M), show that independent variables like Prof, Lqd and Lvg have a positive and significant association to the explained variable of the study i.e. D.P, while a contra relationship is witnessed for business risk and growth opportunity to the dependent variable. Therefore, in food sector the results are more significant than the electrical machinery sector and it can be concluded that increase in the given variables will ultimately boost the D.P to shareholders that is the most attractive factor in the eyes of the majority of the stockholders. The endeavor concludes considerable results which will help the key stakeholders particularly the Board of Directors in order to formulate and restructure their D.P backed by the considered variables of this study that will ultimately maximize the stockholders wealth as well as the organizational value of both the sample sectors of the study.
