Dose Planning Evaluation of Intensity-Modulated Proton Therapy (IMPT) Technique Based on In-House Dynamic Thorax Phantom
Authors: Vernanda V. , Azzi A. , Pawiro S. A.
Published: April 2023

One of the drawbacks of the Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) technique is that the absorbed dose in healthy tissue is relatively high. Proton beam has characteristics that can compensate for these drawbacks. The Bragg peak characteristic of a proton beam allows the administration of high radiation doses to the target organ only. Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) cases are located in the vicinity of many vital organs, so radiation doses that exceed a certain limit will have a significant impact on these organs. Proton is a heavy particle that exhibits interaction patterns with tissue heterogeneity that differ from that of photon. This study aims to determine the distribution of proton beam planning doses in the NSCLC cases with the Intensity Modulated Proton Therapy (IMPT) technique and compare its effectiveness with the IMRT technique. Treatment planning was done by using TPS Eclipse on the water phantom and on the in-house thorax dynamic phantom. The water phantom planning parameters used are one field at 0° and three fields at 45°, 135°, and 225°. In this study, a single, sum, and multiple field techniques on the in-house thorax dynamic phantom were used. The evaluation was performed by calculating Conformity Index (CI), Homogeneity Index (HI), and Gradient Index (GI) parameters for each treatment planning. As a result, a bit of difference in the CI the HI values are shown between IMPT and IMRT planning. The GI values of IMPT planning are in the range between 4.15-4.53, while the GI value of IMRT is 7.89. The histogram results of the planar dose distribution show that the IMPT treatment planning provides fewer off-target organ doses than the IMRT planning. Evaluation was also carried out on the    IMPT treatment planning of target organs in five areas of interest and four OAR positions. The evaluation results were then compared with the IMRT measurement data. As a result, the value of the point doses at the target organ      did not differ significantly. However, the absorbed dose with the IMPT technique at four OAR positions is nearly zero, which had a large difference compared to the IMRT technique.

Varian Halcyon 2.0 linear accelerator was launched and became available for clinical use in 2018. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate the accuracy of exit fluence of the Halcyon 2.0 for quality assurance (QA) of head and neck cancer treatment planning, pretreatment, and treatment. The accuracy of the exit fluence for twenty treatment plannings has been evaluated by conducting gamma analysis for QA pretreatment and treatment in each field and composite field by using criteria for gamma index 3 %/3 mm and 2 %/2 mm. The QA pretreatment results are in the average value for each criterion for each field and composite fields on actual gantry angle and null gantry angle with gamma passing rate (GPR) of over 99 % (range 99.78 %-99.95 %) The total treatments consisted of 2717 fractions. The analysis results of GPR for fields were 99.32 % and 97.74 % for gamma indexes of 3 %/3 mm and 2 %/2 mm, respectively. In addition, the analysis results of GPR for composites were 95.46 % and 81.38 % for gamma indexes of 3 %/3 mm and 2 %/2 mm, respectively. Based on this result, the average GPRs of QA pretreatment are ≈ 99 % of the total pixels. This means the prediction dose of Varian Halcyon 2.0 is accurate. The average GPRs of treatment is nearly  90 %, showing that Varian Halcyon 2.0 is effective for creating treatment plans for complex cases.
Recommendations for working with a pregnant woman consuming alcohol perspective of family assistants
Authors: Krasiejko Izabela
Published: April 2023

Working with families with children in the form of family assistantship has been carried out in Poland for over 10 years. The family assistant works with families to strengthen their care and educational skills and to assist with home and family matters. It also coordinates counselling for pregnant women. Families deal with life's difficulties in different ways. Alcohol is seen as one of the means of self-regulation of emotions. Drinking alcohol by pregnant women can lead to FASD (Fetal Alcohol Syndrome Disorder). Thus, the profession of a family assistant is one of the helping professions that can counteract this phenomenon. This article presents the experiences of family assistants in working with pregnant women who consume alcohol and their opinions on the methods of preventing and treating addictions in expectant mothers.
Analysis of the initial period of diagnosing the needs and potential of the local government community in the field of planning social services
Authors: Sordyl-Lipnicka Barbara
Published: April 2023

The Social Services Centre (SSC) as a unit created optionally by local government authorities is becoming one of the new organizational forms of social services that go beyond the scope of social assistance. The main tasks of the social services centre include the coordination of social services provided by specific entities in a given area. For this purpose, it is particularly important to program social services or plan the organization of the local community. However, to make it possible, communes should fulfil their obligation to diagnose the needs and potential of the local government community in the field of social services, as one of the main pillars of the SSC activity. A properly made diagnosis is the basis for planning, taking actions and estimating their costs. The aim of the article is to analyse the activities undertaken by social services centres in Poland as part of the preparation and development of a diagnosis.
Rare complication of ganglion impar blockade with the transsacrococcygeal approach: A case of rectal perforation
Authors: Okçu Mehmet , Şencan Savaş , Hakan Gündüz Osman
Published: April 2023

Although it has been reported that caution should be exercised in terms of rectal perforation, as the ganglion impar is located just behind the rectum in the presacral space, the authors could not find any case or images of rectal perforation occurring during ganglion impar blockade in the literature. In this report, the case of a 38-year-old female with rectal perforation that developed during ganglion impar blockade, performed by the transsacrococcygeal approach under fluoroscopy guidance, is presented. Wrong needle selection and the structurally short presacral space of the patient may have influenced the development of rectal perforation in the patient. This study presents the first case and images of rectal perforation in the literature that developed during the application of ganglion impar blockade using the transsacrococcygeal technique. In ganglion impar block applications, technically appropriate needles should be used, and care should be taken in terms of rectal perforation.
A NEW FIELD IN MUSIC PRODUCTION: METAVERSE CONCERTS
Authors: ÇELİK Gizem
Published: April 2023

Music is an important communicative power for humanity and the power of music is advancing and getting stronger together with the mass media that develops in parallel with the technological developments. The physical concert structure of music, which only the immediate environment can access, first turned into an imaginary music field with the radios. Later, these imaginary musical areas became shows where auditory activities were visualized with the spread of television. Visual shows, on the other hand, have been moved to higher levels in digital media, and finally, they are transformed into virtual reality by passing to virtual environments that are included with avatars. This whole process transforms the one-way communication style of music into two-way communication. Music performances, which turned into shows held in virtual spaces, completed the biggest step towards reaching millions with metaverse concerts, and succeeded in reviving the music market, which had necessarily stagnated during the pandemic period. Metaverse concerts, which became widespread in this period, transform the audience, who attend the concerts with their avatars, from the position of passive concert listeners to an audience profile that begins to take an active role in concerts and shows. Audiences, who become active through their avatars, begin to have a direct presence in virtual environments, with their new position flying, floating, changing costumes and shape-shifting, directing their song selections, accompanying and dancing songs by interacting directly with singer avatars. In this study, the freedom environment and comfort of movement provided by metaverse environments will be emphasized. Examples of metaverse concerts that took place in recent years and the artist-audience interaction that took place in these concerts will be given.

O direito à educação como forma de contribuir para a democratização da sociedade
Authors: Leite Renato Costa , Valadão Tatiane Souza
Published: April 2023

O presente artigo versa sobre o entrelaçamento sociedade e educação, bem como a importância de uma educação crítica como requisito fundamental para uma sociedade democrática. Possui como objetivo apresentar e debater a competência política da educação e a função social da escola e dos docentes nesse quesito. Como percurso metodológico optou-se por resgatar e apresentar a definição do ser político da educação, bem como analisar os discursos trazidos pelo Movimento Escola Sem Partido (MESP), que de forma “despretensiosa” foi ganhando destaque no cenário político-partidário nacional sob a bandeira de “neutralidade” e “apartidarismo”, mas que por debaixo das fake news guardava um arsenal de ideologias neoliberais e de ataques a autonomia da escola e ao senso crítico. Desse modo, o presente texto, sem pretender esgotar o assunto, avança no debate e advoga pela defesa do espaço escolar enquanto local apropriado para o debate, o diálogo, o confronto de ideias tão salutares na construção do conhecimento e de forma democrática que todos os olhares sejam trazidos, sem a interferência de partidos políticos e de leis que visam limitar a construção dos saberes dos estudantes às versões estipuladas por determinados grupos que ocupam a máquina do Estado visando a manutenção de uma sociedade desigual por, entre outros meios, do controle das informações.
Solidarity project: Working on affectivity in childhood
Authors: Valenga Ariádene Mara Figueiró , Henning Carla Cristina Kunicki , Oliveira Rayana Ruas de , Rauli Patrícia Forte
Published: April 2023

Characterization of the problem: The contemporary scenario has promoted a crisis in the biopsychosocial development of children, who lack a healthy environment satisfying their emotional needs in which they can develop empathy with the people around them so that they establish healthy effective relationships. With this, the contribution of the school, the family, and society is essential to stimulate not only the cognitive development of the child but also and mainly the construction of "emotional literacy”, which aims to improve feelings and emotions, in addition to providing the constitution of character and affectivity, which will help towards a sense of solidarity and love for others. Description of the experience: Inspired by the Educoração project, using the dynamic Circle of Love, this Solidarity Project was applied to 11 students from Maternal II, from the Centro Educacional Irmã Isaura Carlesse. Four meetings were held, once a week, at the beginning of the class, lasting one hour, including songs, storytelling, sharing time, biopsychology exercises, meditation, self-massage, and relaxation. Effects achieved: The dynamics and experiences applied helped the children learn to develop qualities such as respect and empathy in a playful and fun way, in addition to imprinting an atmosphere of love and joy throughout the day. It was noticeable, at each meeting, the change brought by the Circle of Love to the daycare center. It is worth mentioning that the success observed in the materialization of this project could only occur due to the acceptance and interest on the part of the daycare center, and mainly due to the joint work with the teacher. Recommendations: Even with all the social ills, it is possible to make teaching something worthwhile and meaningful. Biopsychology exercises, stories, songs, and conversation circles are undoubtedly strategies that help in the educational process and that should be systematically used by teachers in the classroom. However, for all of them, there needs to be a very strong feeling of love on the part of the educator.

Crypto-Currencies Are Objects of Property Rights
Authors: Yuan Baoqi
Published: April 2023

‘Crypto-currencies are objects of property rights just as chairs are objects of property rights.’ There has been some controversy over this statement. With the rapid development and popularity of cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, the research and application of cryptocurrencies have exploded. Given that cryptocurrencies themselves are still evolving as innovative Internet financial products, it is necessary to first make a preliminary determination on the basic issues of what cryptocurrencies are and what their legal properties are, and this article will focus on whether cryptocurrencies are objects of property. This essay will primarily address the issue of whether or not bitcoins are considered property. We must first define the ideas and standards of property, such as definability, third-party identifiability, exclusivity, and competition, in order to ascertain the legal characteristics of cryptocurrencies. The legal status of cryptocurrencies will be determined by examining the structure, traits, and classification of property. In the end, it is found that most nations and regions also recognize cryptocurrencies as objects of property rights and that they usually have the property of things.

Children and young people increasingly use personal computers and mobile phones to communicate with other people, both known and unknown. Children are very often not aware of the risk of communicating with people they do not know, who often impersonate themselves and provide incorrect information about their age, appearance, place of residence and other personal information. Unlike potential abusers, children generally provide truthful information about their identity and movements. Perpetrators can find out the numbers of potential victims through various internet chats, mobile network chats, children’s magazines in which children leave information with a phone number, or through various shows in which mobile phone numbers are broadcast at the bottom of the screen with invitations to correspond via mobile phone.

Argumentation Strategies and Linguistic Features of the Philippine Mining Policy: A Discourse Historical Analysis
Authors: Diamante Jennifier , Correo Cynthia
Published: April 2023

This study analyzes the argumentation strategies and linguistic features of the Philippine mining policy using Discourse Historical Approach and Gunnarsson’s (1984) theory on functional comprehensibility of legislative texts. Two intercoders validated the manual analysis, while UAM Corpus Tool, a linguistic tagging software, was used to identify the linguistic feature of the policy. Interviews with local legislators were also carried out to provide a holistic interpretation of the mining policies. Results reveal that the mining policy hinged on the topoi of duty, authority, and justice while its linguistic features reflect the conventions of legislative genre, heavily loaded with registers identifiable to members of a legalese community. Further, the policy generally contains action-directing orientation and the modal, shall, which are both indicative of the sense of urgency and accountability in the execution of duties and responsibilities. Results further indicate the salient role of the state in the environmental management and balanced use of resources of the country and in ensuring the protection of the rights of its citizens, particularly the marginalized ones.

Philosophieren als kreatives Transzendieren
Authors: Lenk Hans
Published: April 2023

Reflektierendes Überschreiten ist ein wesentliches Moment für das kreative Philosophieren. Es meint das kreative Transzendieren von Grenzen, z. B. Klassengrenzen, Mengengrenzen oder Abgrenzungen. Begriffliche Dimensionen innerhalb einer spezifischen Ebene oder Schicht beim Vergleich verschiedener Arten ist eine Sache, das Überschreiten von Schichten der Symbolbildung, also das Aufsteigen, ist eine andere. Man muss also die Überschreitung von Art- oder (Gattungs-)Begriffsgrenzen in ein und derselben Schicht vornehmen (beispielsweise bei der biologischen Artenbildung oder bei der im Alltag nachvollzogenen Artenbildung) und sie von der Überschreitung von Schichtengrenzen im Sinne der Metastufenüberschreitung unterscheiden. Man sollte allgemein das kreative Aufsteigen auf höhere Meta-Ebenen wieder mehr schätzen!
On The Substitutivity of Variables
Authors: Solte Dirk
Published: April 2023

This paper examines the constraints for the decidability of a logical system byanalyzing the theories of undecidability in formal logic and recursive func-tions. The proof of the diagonal lemma requires the implicit premise that allformulas are closed under avariable composition, i.e., the composition of vari-ables in the formulas signatures. A variable composition is representable infirst-order logic if∀ψ∀k(⊢ψ(k)↔∃y(ψ∧y≡k))can be derived, e.g., froma semantic definition of the quantifiers. A further condition is the assump-tion of an interpretation providing the existence of what will be defined as anindeterminate variable signaturewith aconstant interpretation.A recursion theorem for formulas in analogy to the recursion theorem ofKleene (1943, pp.52-53) will be proved which covers the diagonal lemma as aspecial case. The chosen notation and reasoning intend to make the necessaryconditions for its provability explicit. It will be proved that the representabilityof variable composition and the existence of an indeterminate variable signa-ture to represent a constant interpretation are consequences of the recursiontheorem, i.e., equivalent to the existence of fixed points∀ψ∃φ(⊢φ↔ψ(⌜φ⌝)).These results give a reason why the negation of the diagonal lemma canbe proved for a predicative logic that contradicts these premises but holdsthe explicit condition of the diagonal lemma, i.e., a language of this logic iscapable of representing all computable functions, as has been shown as anon-expectable result in Solte 2020. The paper concludes with an outline ofa decidable structure of computable functions. I.e., it is possible to provide aninterpretation of a predicative logic without undecidability in this structure

The rise of international certifications such as ISO in globalized markets is due to a strong need to ensure that all suppliers and customers provide proof of their effectiveness and efficiency, regardless of their geographical location. This manuscript aims to present in a simple way the certification and auditing processes in conjunction with the experience gained by the authors as part of a team of internal auditors and to advise companies seeking to certify various management systems; although it is understood that each company has its own needs, this work is written in a general way to be applied as a basic guide.

It is important to understand that management systems, when adopted by organizations, have several advantages, among them recognition in their market and the satisfaction of the needs of the interested parties. To achieve the certification of such systems, internal audits are an indispensable tool to demonstrate compliance with the corresponding standard to the certifying bodies, besides being a requirement of management systems, they help to detect findings during their implementation that lead to the development and maturity of the systems; considering that the audit team is staff of the organization.

This dissertation summarizes the steps to be followed in the ISO 9000 certification process of any company or institution, emphasizing the internal audit process and its different implications in an organization.

Aim: To assess prevalence and morphometrics of lingual foramen and lingual canals using Cone Beam Computerised Tomography (CBCT).

Materials and Methods: This was a retrospective observational study, in which 144 CBCT scans were obtained from the archives of Department of Oral radiology, Vishnu dental college, Bhimavaram. Parameters such as number, location, length of the lingual canal, travel path of the lingual canals, distance from the lingual foramen to inferior border, in cases where extra foramen is present an additional criteria involving measurement of the distance between both the foramen  was also evaluated. Statistical analysis was done using chi-square test and results were formulated.

Results: Lingual foramen was a common observation in all of the examined CBCT scans and 21% of scans showed two lingual foramen. The average distance from the Inferior Lingual Foramen (ILF) to Inferior Border (IB) was 3.3 ± 1.0 mm. The mean length of the Superior Lingual Canal (SLC) was 4.2 ± 1.3mm and the mean length of the ILC (Inferior lingual canal) was 4.2 ± 1.2mm. The majority of the inferior lingual foramen (76%) were inclined and only 0.1% of foramen were vertical.

Conclusion: Variations in the prevalence of the lingual foramen are observed due to variations in the ethnicity, geographic location. Detailed evaluation of these anatomic structures using CBCT help in prevention of the complications and will improve the treatment outcome.

Este experimento evaluó el efecto de los extractos vegetales Sacha orégano y Sacha culantro en el crecimiento de alevinos de paiche en etapa de pre-cría durante 102 días en Tarapoto, región San Martín. Se utilizó un diseño factorial de dos extractos y cuatro dosis con tres repeticiones. Los parámetros evaluados fueron mortalidad, peso, talla, ganancia de peso y factor de conversión alimenticia. Los resultados mostraron que el uso de Sacha orégano como aditivo fue prometedor, ya que los peces tratados lograron un mayor peso en comparación con el control. Sin embargo, no se observaron otras diferencias significativas en los demás parámetros, por lo que se requiere de más investigación para evaluar los efectos de estos extractos en el ciclo completo de crecimiento del paiche. En resumen, el uso de Sacha orégano como aditivo en el cultivo de paiche podría ser beneficioso, pero se necesita más estudios para determinar su efectividad a largo plazo.
