Szerbek Budán és az Egyetemi Nyomda
Authors: Golub Xénia
Published: January 2024

A budai Tabánban a 18. században és a 19. század első felében élte virágkorát a szerb közösség, amelynek a városrész a másik nevét (Rácváros) is köszönheti. A budai szerb ortodox székesegyház 1949–1950 telén történt lerombolásával nemcsak a Budai Szerb Ortodox Egyházmegye főtemploma, hanem a köré szerveződő, legalább háromszáz éves múltra visszatekintő szerb közösség is megszűnt. A lebontott budai szerb templom megmaradt tárgyanyagán túl azonban a tabáni szerbség emlékezetét őrzik – közvetve vagy közvetlenül – a budai Egyetemi Nyomda cirill betűs, szerb kiadványai is. Mivel a nyomda cirill tevékenysége 1796 és 1850 között volt a leginkább meghatározó a magyarországi, illetve az egyetemes szerbség története szempontjából, éppen ez az a korszak, amelyből a budai szerbekre vonatkozóan is értékes adatokat nyerhetünk termékeiből, illetve az azokra vonatkozó levéltári forrásokból. A dolgozat az Országos Széchényi Könyvtárban őrzött dokumentumok alapján azt vizsgálja, hogy a tabáni szerbek – beleértve a Budán huzamosabb ideig tartózkodó szerb értelmiségieket – miként vettek részt a budai Várban működő nyomda munkájában, milyen nyomtatványok megjelenését támogatták előfizetőként, vagy rendelték meg saját céljaikra. Ezekből nemcsak könyvkultúrájukra, műveltségi orientációjukra, hanem társadalmi szerepvállalásukra, gazdasági erejükre, identitás- és nemzettudatuk alakulására nézve is vonhatunk le bizonyos következtetéseket.
Habitação, alimentação e desigualdade urbana: estudo sobre a segregação de classe e gênero nas cidades
Authors: Rocha Emanuela Alves da , Silva Felipe Gustavo , Lomardo Louise Land Bittencourt
Published: January 2024

O entendimento de progresso, definido por um modus operandi neoliberal, gera crises que repercutem em aspectos inerentes à sobrevivência e dignidade humana, como habitação e alimentação, sendo vítimas de um progresso a qualquer custo que reproduz a desigualdade e a fome. A partir da perspectiva da casa e da comida enquanto direito, o artigo busca compreender o habitar e o comer sob a ótica de classe, reconhecendo no planejamento urbano vigente o motor da lógica excludente e da responsabilização da mulher pela qualidade de vida familiar no âmbito da “casa, comida e roupa lavada”. O percurso metodológico do estudo apresenta enquanto principal ação a revisão analítica de publicações acadêmicas principais e secundárias acerca da temática, considerando produções críticas ao processo de formação e gestão das cidades, principalmente no que tange à habitação e às dinâmicas essenciais da vida urbana. Assim, observa-se que o modelo de cidade vigente exclui com um crivo de classe e gênero grande parcela da população, que tem o cotidiano posto à margem, vítima de uma gestão desigual do território. Ademais, ao lançar luz sobre a necessidade de se repensar a urbe a partir das demandas triviais, como a habitação e a comida, é colocado à prova um modelo de cidade incipiente. Um urbanismo voltado para a redução das desigualdades de renda e gênero gera demandas por cidades cuidadoras: a população e suas questões essenciais precisam estar no centro do debate e do plano.
A Política Nacional de Resíduos Sólidos e a importância de políticas públicas para a qualidade ambiental
Authors: Rigoldi Kelly Cristina , Lima Valéria
Published: January 2024

O adensamento dos aglomerados urbanos e o avanço da ciência e tecnologia, sob a ótica do capitalismo, intensificaram a relação da sociedade com a natureza, evidenciando a problemática ambiental. Diversos impactos ambientais são observados, como a questão dos resíduos sólidos, que resulta em danos tanto ambientais quanto sociais. As políticas públicas têm o objetivo de solucionar problemas que afetam a qualidade ambiental e de vida das populações. Foi nesse sentido que a Política Nacional de Resíduos Sólidos (PNRS) foi elaborada em 2010. O presente artigo tem como objetivo compreender e avaliar como a Política Nacional de Resíduos Sólidos (PNRS) se alinha com as discussões da questão ambiental, das políticas públicas e da importância de uma análise da totalidade para a resolução de problemáticas complexas. As análises realizadas apontaram que o Plano Nacional de Resíduos Sólidos não considerou a diversidade existente no território nacional, como o potencial econômico dos municípios, impossibilitando, assim, a efetividade do plano, resultando em inúmeras reavaliações e prorrogações de prazos dos planos e das metas ao longo de sua vigência.

Authors: Muniz Antonio Walber Matias , Alecrim Graziella Veloso Freitas , Cidrão Taís Vasconcelos
Published: January 2024

Resumo: segundo a OIT, o trabalho escravo contemporâneo é uma realidade e estima-se que milhões de pessoas são vítimas de trabalho forçado. De acordo com o PNUD, apesar do Brasil ser a 8ª economia do mundo, ainda persistem diversos problemas decorrentes da desigualdade social e concentração de renda. Este é o cenário propício para a manutenção de práticas de escravidão e trabalho forçado. O escopo, portanto, é analisar a região amazônica no que tange aos estudos do seu crescimento econômico e desenvolvimento humano, bem como o reflexo disso no trabalho escravo contemporâneo. Especificamente, investiga-se os índices de crescimento econômico e desenvolvimento humano da região amazônica e compreende-se quais os reflexos da capacitação (educação) do ser humano para a garantia de um trabalho exercido de maneira decente. Utilizou-se o método hipotético-dedutivo com fontes bibliográficas e uma abordagem qualitativa, utilizando-se dos dados disponíveis nos sites da ONU, MPT, OIT, dentre outros. Como resultado, concluiu-se que a capacitação do ser humano, a exemplo do acesso à educação, é o canal mais viável para quebrar o ciclo vicioso da escravidão contemporânea.Palavras-chave: escravidão contemporânea, região amazônica, Índice de Desenvolvimento Humano, Produto Interno Bruto, educação. Abstract: according to the ILO, contemporary slave labor is a reality and it is estimated that millions of people are victims of forced labor. According to the UNDP, despite Brazil being the 8th economy in the world, there are still several problems arising from social inequality and income concentration. This is the favorable scenario for maintaining slavery and forced labor practices. The scope, therefore, is to analyze the Amazon Region with regard to studies of its economic growth and human development, as well as the reflection of this in contemporary slave labor. Specifically, the economic growth and human development indexes of the Amazon Region are investigated and the reflexes of the training (education) of the human being are understood to guarantee a decent job. The hypothetical-deductive method with bibliographic sources and a qualitative approach was used, using the data available on the UN, MPT, ILO websites, among others. As a result, it was concluded that the training of human beings, like access to education, is the most viable channel to break the vicious cycle of slavery.Keywords: contemporary slavery, Amazon region, Gross Domestic Product, Human Development Index, education.
O conceito emergente de "democratic backsliding": lições para a américa latina a partir de uma nova categoria de investigação democrática
Authors: Magalhães da Silva Loureiro Claudia Regina de Oliveira , Carrijo Augusto Guimarães , Vieira Igor Costa , Azevedo Pedro Henrique
Published: January 2024

Resumo:O artigo propõe-se a explorar um conceito que ganhou relevância nos últimos anos na literatura sobre as tendências democráticas globais: o "democratic backsliding". Para tanto, parte-se da tentativa de Nancy Bermeo de identificar as manifestações características do backsliding em exemplos históricos, sistematizando lições a respeito da conceituação do fenômeno e de como ele se relaciona com outras formas de retrocesso ou regressão democrática. Adiante, mapeia-se a bibliografia crescente sobre o tema, tendo como norte a evidenciação dos limites à sua importação acrítica, mas também horizontes possíveis de aplicabilidade. Na terceira parte, o artigo volta-se à realidade latino-americana e destaca a importância de diferenciar mutações naturais à política de expressões de democratic backsliding. Finalmente, conclui-se que, se cada democracia possui processos de falência e consolidação próprios, sem olvidar a influência que eventos de escala regional ou global exercem sobre elas, cada crise merece uma análise desnaturalizada, individual e multinível; nesta tarefa, o conceito de democratic backsliding é particularmente útil, desde que não faça perder de vista a necessidade histórica que a democracia tem de um espaço político para transformar-se e amadurecer.Palavras-chave: democracia, democratic backsliding, política, América Latina, Direito Internacional. Abstract: The article aims to explore a concept that has gained relevance in recent years in the literature on global democratic trends: the "democratic backsliding". To do so, it starts from Nancy Bermeo's attempt to identify the characteristic manifestations of backsliding in historical examples, systematizing lessons about the concept of the phenomenon and how it relates to other forms of democratic regression. Then, the growing bibliography on the subject is mapped, with the aim to highlight the limits to its uncritical import, but also possible horizons of applicability. In the third part, the article turns its attention to the Latin American reality and highlights the importance of differentiating natural mutations in politics from expressions of democratic backsliding. In the end, it is concluded that, if each democracy has its own failure and consolidation processes, without forgetting the influence that events of a regional or global scale exert on them, each crisis deserves a denaturalized, individual and multilevel analysis; in this task, the concept of democratic backsliding is particularly useful, as long as it does not lose sight of the historical need that democracy has for a political space to transform and mature.Keywords: democracy, democratic backsliding, politics, Latin America, International Law.

Published: January 2024

Resumo: Este artigo analisa o direito de acesso à justiça para pessoas com deficiências psicossocial e intelectual, identificando alguns dos seus desafios e algumas propostas de como contorná-los, a partir da normatização de tal direito pela Convenção Internacional sobre os Direitos das Pessoas com Deficiência e pela Lei Brasileira de Inclusão. São observados como pontos sensíveis a exigir mudanças para a efetivação de acesso a uma justiça inclusiva e plural aspectos concernentes à capacidade legal e adaptações processuais. Com relação à primeira, propomos uma abertura interpretativa do instituto para além da distinção binária entre capacidade/incapacidade. Quanto à última, este artigo argui que a acessibilidade à linguagem e à comunicação deveria ser assegurada para equilibrar os direitos entre as partes litigantes. Palavras-chave: acesso à justiça, adaptações processuais, capacidade civil, inclusão, deficiência intelectual e psicossocial. Abstract: This article analyses the right of access to justice for people with psychosocial and intellectual disabilities by identifying some of the challenges and proposals on how to overcome them based on the standardization of such right by the International Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and by the Brazilian Inclusion Law. As sensitive points that require change in order to achieve access to an inclusive and plural justice system, this paper addresses aspects concerning legal capacity and reasonable accommodations on judicial procedure. About the former, this article proposes an interpretative opening of the institute beyond the binary distinction between having or not having legal capacity. About the latter, it argues that in order to balance the plaintiff and defendant's rights accessibility to language and communication should be assured. Keywords: access to justice, inclusion, legal capacity, reasonable accomodations, intellectual and psychosocial disabilities.
The awakening of climate litigation in Brazil: strategies based on the existing legal toolkit
Authors: De Andrade Moreira Danielle , Luz Andreatta Herschmann Stela
Published: January 2024

Abstract: This paper aims to explore part of the existing legal toolkit - of legislation, case law, and doctrine - that is already consolidated in the Environmental Law field and should be explored for litigating the climate crisis in Brazil. The article makes the case that Brazil is a fertile ground for climate litigation by articulating already established and successfully tested legal avenues for preventing, mitigating, and compensating adverse environmental impacts caused by the private sector or by the State, and that can be brought before national courts as strong legal arguments. Like a frame of glasses, the legal framework that underpins environmental licensing and civil environmental liability in Brazil needs to receive the "lenses" of climate change in order to be transformed into an effective climate litigation tool.Keywords: environment, climate crisis, climate litigation, environmental licensing, civil environmental liability, toolkit.Resumo: Este artigo tem como objetivo explorar parte do conjunto de ferramentas jurídicas existente - jurisprudencial, legislativa e doutrinária - que já está consolidado no campo do Direito Ambiental e deve ser explorado para litigar a crise climática no Brasil. O artigo defende que o Brasil é um terreno fértil para litígios climáticos ao articular vias legais já testadas com sucesso para prevenir, mitigar e compensar impactos ambientais adversos causados tanto pelo setor privado, quanto pelo Estado, e que podem ser apresentados aos tribunais nacionais como fortes argumentos jurídicos. Como uma armação de óculos, o arcabouço jurídico que fundamenta o licenciamento ambiental e a responsabilidade civil ambiental no Brasil precisa receber as "lentes" das mudanças climáticas para se transformar em um instrumento eficaz de litígio climático.Palavras-chave: meio ambiente; crise climática; litígio climático; licenciamento ambiental; responsabilidade civil ambiental; kit de ferramentas

Resumo: A partir das exposições de narrativas descritivas da organização social dos Povos Tupinambá no Brasil e das interpretações antropológicas, o presente trabalho realiza uma abordagem crítica da apresentação das relações de gênero no mundo-aldeia, identificando características da colonialidade de poder, saber e de gênero que romperam o tecido comunitário indígena e ocultaram a sua autonomia. Aborda a criação das categorias gênero e raça como exercício legitimado de poder, compreendendo que a ótica da modernidade perpetua nos dias atuais por meio de uma matriz republicana burguesa. Identifica a reprodução do discurso moderno pelo Estado Democrático Direito, apesar do reconhecimento dos povos indígenas como sujeitos de direito, propondo uma nova interpretação do problema apontado. Apresenta-se a devolução da autonomia a partir do pluralismo, buscando o reconhecimento da diversidade enquanto individualidade e coletividade e, como ruptura, tensiona a luta pela existência de um Estado restituidor da jurisdição própria e do foro interno comunitário, que garanta a deliberação dos povos tradicionais e possibilite que o próprio povo construa seu projeto histórico. A operacionalização da pesquisa dá-se pelo método jurídicosociológico, bem como pela análise de dados quantitativos secundários e de revisão bibliográfica para o embasamento teórico decolonial.Palavras-chave: direito constitucional, decolonialidade, colonialidade, modernidade, povos tradicionais indígenas.Abstract: From an exhibitions of descriptive narratives of the Tupinambá People social organization in Brazil and from anthropological interpretations, this scientific work takes a critical approach to the presentation of gender relations in the word-village, identifying characteristics of the power coloniality, knowledge and gender that broke the indigenous community web and hid their autonomy. Brings up the creation of gender and race categories as legitimate exercise of power, understanding that the modernity optics remains nowadays through one bourgeois republic matrix. Identifies a reproduction of a modern discourse by the Democratic State, despite the recognition of the indigenous as subjects of the law, proposing one new interpretation of the present problem. Presents the return of autonomy based on pluralism, seeking the recognition of diversity as individuality and collectivity and, as a rupture, intends to fight for the existence of a State that restores its own jurisdiction and the internal community forum, which guarantees the deliberation of the peoples and allow the people themselves to build their historic project. The operationalization of the search is made with a sociologicaljuridical method, as well as by the analysis of secondary quantitative data and the bibliographic review for the theoretical basis decolonial.Keywords: constitutional right, decoloniality, coloniality, modernity, traditional indigenous people.

Il ‘Naturale’ debitum classico e le obligationes naturales Giustinianee: un confronto inevitabile
Authors: Longo Sara
Published: January 2024

Nel condurre una efficace analisi sintetica sull’iter di evoluzione/involuzione proprio della naturalis obligatio, viene prestata attenzione, per un verso alle esigenze – alimentate pure da un preesistente intervento normativo iure honorario – che spinsero la iurisprudentia ad elaborare il concetto tecnico di ‘naturalis obligatio’, per altro verso ai molteplici e diversi fattori che ‘stravolsero’ il comune de-nominatore delle obbligazioni naturali classiche, per dar vita nel diritto giustinianeo ad un allarga-mento funzionale e alquanto eterogeneo della categoria delle obligationes naturales; si getteranno così le basi della moderna figura dell’obbligazione naturale così come configurata dall’art. 2034 cod. civ.

La medicina darwiniana de las enfermedades de la opulencia
Authors: Campillo Álvarez José Enrique
Published: January 2024

El ser humano ha adquirido a lo largo de su evolución el equipamiento genético que le permite una gran eficiencia en la acumulación de grasa en los periodos de bonanza alimenticia (gran facilidad para engordar) y gran eficacia en el ahorro de estos depósitos en periodos de escasez (dificultad para adelgazar). Pero cuando estas características genéticas se desarrollan en la abundancia constante de alimentos y en la ausencia de esfuerzo físico para conseguir la comida, que caracterizan las sociedades opulentas actuales, el resultado es la obesidad crónica y sus consecuencias negativas para la salud.

“Se proyectará mucha luz sobre el origen del hombre y su historia”. Darwin eludió el problema de pronunciarse sobre nosotros mismos, temía ser víctima del antropocentrismo feroz. Esa cita de Darwin, la única referida al Homo sapiens en su obra "El Origen de las Especies", sirve a la autora para estudiar el conocimiento del autor sobre los fósiles humanos y como lo enmarco dentro de la evolución, que fue situarlo en el lugar que le correspondía: entre el resto de los seres vivos, sometido a sus mismas normas y leyes de existencia y cambio.
La presencia del vampiro de la literatura gótica en los cuentos de Julio Cortázar
Authors: Fernández Moreno Sergio
Published: January 2024

Resumen

La influencia que el vampiro de la literatura gótica ejerce sobre la obra de Cortázar se manifiesta de forma muy evidente en dos de sus relatos: «El hijo del vampiro» y «Reunión con un círculo rojo». En este sentido, el objetivo del presente artículo es analizar de qué forma los atributos del vampiro retratado por el folklore y las ficciones góticas se resignifican en cada cuento y averiguar cómo el autor recurre a estos modelos para enriquecer y reorientar el significado de ambos textos.

Authors: Nurliana Nurliana
Published: January 2024

This research aims to analyze the types of derivational suffixes used in reading texts of the higher educational English textbook. This research employed qualitative research, specifically content analysis, as the research design. The data involved derivational suffixes found in 15 reading texts of the higher educational English textbook English for Islamic Studies, used by the al-Qur’an and Tafsir Sciences study program students at IAIN Palangka Raya. The data collected were analyzed systematically. This research indicated four types of derivational suffixes in the reading texts of the higher educational English textbook: nominal, adjectival, adverbial, and verbal. Nominal suffixes were the most frequently used derivational suffixes in the reading texts of the higher educational English textbook. The research findings implied that the types of derivational suffixes frequently occurring in higher educational English textbook reading texts should be emphasized more in teaching reading comprehension.

Authors: Virk Arashdeep , Singla Mohit , Trivedi Pranay , Bhattacharjee Prasun , Tiwari Abhinav
Published: January 2024

Scrub typhus is an important cause of acute febrile illness and one of the re-emerging infectious diseases in India particularly in southern Rajasthan. Hemophagocytic lympho-histiocytosis (HLH) results from an uncontrolled and ineffective hyperinflammatory response to a variety of triggers. HLH is further subdivided into primary and secondary type. We present a case of Scrub typhus which presented with multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) and secondary HLH which is a rare entity. A 9-month-old male child presented with high grade fever with encephalopathy. Examination showed hepatosplenomegaly, cervical Lymph adenopathy with eschar mark visible on abdomen. Scrub typhus was suspected on clinical grounds and further investigations were done. Serological diagnosis was strongly positive for scrub typhus. Initially, child did not respond to doxycycline, so further investigations were done to rule out HLH which fits into criteria of secondary HLH as per the revised HLH 2004 protocol. In view of secondary HLH and MODS methylprednisolone was added to treatment. Child responded to steroids and there was complete recovery. Scrub typhus patient with progressive MODS, in spite of appropriate antimicrobial therapy should raise the suspicion of secondary HLH which is rare but life-threatening condition and steroids plays an important role in the management of this condition.

Cost effective campaigning method to attract people to an awareness program need to be identified. Conventional Pamphlet Campaign remain popular despite the expanding range of Social Media Campaign that have potential to reach large number of people at low cost.

Two different methods of awareness campaigns were used to attract people to an awareness program. The Conventional Pamphlet was distributed manually and Social Media Campaign was done in Facebook as a paid promoted post. The budget was fixed to Rs.1200/-for each group. People with interest are invited to scan the provided QR code which directs to an Electronic form (e- form). The number of sign up were estimated in each method.

A total of 17 people signed up to participate in awareness program. Of which Conventional Pamphlets Campaign showed 6 sign up and Social Media Campaign showed 11 sign up. The cost per sign up for Conventional Pamphlet Campaign and Social Media Campaign are Rs.200/- and Rs. 109.09 respectively. The Social Media Campaign was the cost effective method and reached larger number of sign ups when compared to Conventional Pamphlet Campaign.

Overall, our results demonstrate that Social Media Campaigning is the cost-effective method in attracting people than Conventional Pamphlets Campaigning.

Authors: Dave Binal , Shaikh Rozina
Published: January 2024

Tenesmus is uncomfortable sensation of incomplete evacuation of the bowel movements and it may be a distressing symptom for sufferers who suffer from rectal fullness. Not like nociceptive ache, neuropathic pain or visceral ache, little is thought about the pathway for this ache. There are only a few studies analyzing the palliative care of this symptom.

In this case report, we describe a patient who suffered from severe tenesmus.

To address the patient’s tenesmus, pelvic floor physiotherapy was given.

After 3 months of pelvic floor physiotherapy, the patient reported complete abolishment of her tenesmus symptoms.

Pelvic floor physiotherapy may be an effective tool for the management of tenesmus. Future research studies should consider examining the signs and symptoms of tenesmus.

Authors: Kebede Zerihun , Geto Getaneh , Desalegn Fiseha , Managido Demis
Published: January 2024

Though Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) is one of the internationally as well as nationally important root crops its production is challenged with various bottlenecks. Lack of planting materials, shortage of farmer preferred varieties, poor extension system among many other constraints. This study was conducted to assess the performance and test of different orange fleshed sweet potato varieties in participatory approach in the lowlands of North shewa. Evaluation of eight varieties was carried out in main cropping season using a Randomized Complete Block Design with three replications. Number of roots per plant, root weight per plant, root length, root diameter, marketable and total root yield were measured and analyzed using the generalized linear model procedure with SAS statistical software version 9.1. Moreover, farmers’ perception assessment and sensory analysis which had an important constituency in the selection process were done using pairwise matrix and hedonic scale, respectively. Except root length, all the traits showed significant difference between varieties. Variety Kulfo gave the highest root yield (38.8 tha-1) and root diameter (98.8 mm); whereas the lowest root yield (22.1 tha-1) and root diameter (64.5 mm) were recorded from varieties Teo jet and Delvia, respectively. Farmers were also selecting varieties Lords, Cicilia and Birtukane. Panelists selected Bela, Birtukane and Kulfo as the best varieties. Hence, varieties Kulfo, Lords and Birtukane were recommended for further popularization to boost the production and productivity of the crop for production the lowlands of north shewa and other similar agro-ecologies.

An experiment was carried out at A-to-Z Agro Farm Bagatipara, Natore, Bangladesh from October to December 2020, to study the growth, yield and economic benefits of radish (Raphanus sativus L, V: Rocky 45) as influenced by different levels of organic fertilizer (Kazi organic fertilizer). The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) comprising four treatments with three replications. The treatment combinations were T0 (no organic fertilizer), T1 (organic fertilizer 5 t ha-1), T2 (organic fertilizer 10 t ha-1), T3 (organic fertilizer 15 t ha-1), respectively. Data were recorded from different stages of plant growth on plant height at different days after sowing, number of leaves per plant, leaf length, leaf breadth, root length, root diameter, fresh weight of root per plant, gross yield and marketable yield. All the recorded parameters were statistically significant among the treatments. The tallest plant (40.92 cm) was recorded from T3 (organic fertilizer 15 t ha-1), whereas the shortest plant height plant (25.84 cm) was obtained from the control T0 (no organic fertilizer). Highest number of leaves (16.56), leaf length (33.02 cm), leaf breadth ((8.74 cm), root length (19.33 cm), root diameter (3.50 cm), fresh weight of root per plant (129.89 g), gross yield (36.37 t ha-1), marketable yield (36.37 t ha-1) and also the highest benefit cost ratio (2.67) was found in treatment T3 (organic fertilizer 15 t ha-1) whereas lowest data recorded from control T0 (no organic fertilizer). Results conclude that application of organic fertilizer 15 t ha-1 for radish cultivation gave better growth, yield and economic benefits.
Combined Endovascular and Surgical Treatment of High-Grade Meningioma - Case Report

Published: January 2024

Surgical resection of hypervascular meningiomas is often complex and may be accompanied by blood loss, followed by incomplete resection and tumor recurrence. We present a case of successful combined endovascular and surgical treatment for a large, complex, transcalvarial meningioma that is successfully resected. A 52-year-old male is admitted to our hospital with large left fronto-parietal tumefaction. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed extra-axial, transcalvarial fronto-temporal-parietal space occupying lesion with vivid contrast enhancement. Preoperative embolization was done using microspheres and coils. Surgical resection of tumor was done and pathohistology report showed Grade III meningioma. The patient recovers completely after the surgery and at first clinical follow-up 30 days later mRS was 0. Preoperative embolization of grade III meningioma reduces the surgery time, intraoperative blood loss and allows better resection without significant increase of perioperative complications. Reports on the association between embolization and tumor recurrence are insubstantial and require more research in future.
A Survey of Manual Detorsion of The Testicle
Authors: Dewan Paddy
Published: January 2024

Purpose: A nine question survey was established on an internet survey provider, aimed to understand attitudes to two principle aspects of management of testicular torsion. Respondents were asked about their experience and attitude toward the use of preoperative manual detorsion, the analgesic usage for that manoeuvre and the approach to the significantly ischaemic testicle at the time of scrotal exploration. Materials and Methods: A monkey survey platform included 9 questions, the results of which were analysed via an access database. In all, 561 emails were sent from the authors, and the numbers linked via the Australasian Urology and Paediatric Surgery societies, for privacy reasons, were not defined. A total of 285 responses were collected; 181 via emails responses and 104 via a web link. Results: Results of 285 who did respond, 134are Urologists, 33 Urology trainees, 45Paediatric Urologists,58Paediatric Surgeons and 15 Paediatric Surgery trainees.19 of 58 (32.8%) of Paediatric surgeons, 32 of 45 (66.7%) Paediatric Urologists and 84of 134 (62.7%) of Urologists had untwisted a testicle before theatre, but 12 (25.0%) of 48 trainees have either never been taught or do not believe in the manual detorsion; 46.7% of those in Paediatric Surgery compared to four of 33 urology trainees 15.1%. Conclusion: The majority of surgeons rely on manual detorsion of the testicle as part of the management of patients with a twisted testicle in the adolescent age group, and there appear to clinical criteria that are used to assess the appropriateness of the manoeuvre.
Evaluation, Hallmark, Clinical Relevance and Role of Anti Citrullin Antibody, IgG and IgM Rheumatoid Factor with Serological Parameters of Disease Activity or Both as Overall Sifted Test in Undifferentiated Seronegative Arthropathy with or without Joint Inflammation and Bone Structure Differences. Boost, over Helling or Amplification to Classification Criteria to Rheumathoid Arthritis?
Authors: Spasovski Dejan
Published: January 2024

Aim: To compare the values and acuracy of the test in anticyclic citrullinated peptides (Anti-CCP /ACPA) antibodies, Rheumatoid factor (RF), C-Reactive Protein (CRP) and disease activity index (PASI) in early diagnosis of untreated Psoriatic arthritis(PsA). Methods: Using the ELISA method of DIA-STATTM Anti CCP (Axis-Shield Diagnostics), sera of 70 participants were examined (35 untreated patients with PsA and 35 persons from the healthy control group). RF and CRP were determined with the agglutination test (Lateks test) in the same participants. In the same time we determined the sensitivity, specificity, predictive value for positive and negative test and accuracy. Results: From 35 pts with PsA, 1 patient showed presence of Anti-CCP antibodies (sensitivity test 2.86%), while RF was present in 0 pts (sensitivity test 0%). In the healthy control group positive values for RF, CRP and Erythroid Sedimentation Rate (ESR) were detected in 1 participant. Conclussion: ACPA antibodies have low sensitivity, but high specificity in PsA.
Seroepidemiologic Study of Subclinical Leishmaniasis in Uremic Patients on Hemodialysis in Lebanon
Authors: Salti N Nuwayri
Published: January 2024

Lebanon is in the center of a region that is hyper-endemic for leishmaniases, yet the observed prevalence of the cutaneous form (cL) has been rather low in this country. What is important is that in about one third of these patients, with cutaneous lesions, we isolated the parasites from the blood stream. In all studied samples (skin or blood) the parasite was found to be L. donovanisenso lato. Besides, the symptoms, in subjects with infected blood, are often vague and non-specific, and remain so, even after the skin sores have healed, while the parasite is still present in blood. This led us to realize, that the prevalence of subjects with infected blood, by this strain of parasite, may be much greater than we ever suspected, and even more likely in subjects with poor body defenses, such as in patients with chronic renal failure and uremia. The current study is to explore this possibility looking for the presence of parasites in patients with depressed immunity secondary to chronic renal failure. We hope that once this invasion, if present, is uncovered and treated, will rid the immune system of this overload, improving thus its performance leading to a better quality of life.
How Does the Multi-Disciplinary Team Impact Chronic Kidney Disease Management?
Authors: Fawzy Michael
Published: January 2024

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a condition where a gradual kidney function loss leads to a build-up of toxic waste products in the blood, increasing morbidity and premature deaths from enhanced risks of cardiovascular disease, stroke and mineral bone diseases. The most common causes of CKD include type II diabetes and hypertension, both accounting for two-thirds of all cases. CKD is asymptomatic in early stages and is only diagnosed via routine screening tests unless severe symptoms arise from advanced CKD. Management of CKD via multidisciplinary team (MDT) consisting of professionals from various disciplines has been hailed as the best modality in treating such a multi-faceted chronic disease, leading to positive impacts on patients’ experience and clinical outcomes.
Mucinous Tubular and Spindle Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma
Authors: Y Himmi
Published: January 2024

Mucinous tubular and spindle cell carcinoma is a rare tumor described in the 2004 WHO classification as a new entity with a relatively indolent behavior. We report a case of 60 year old man with a large left upper pole tumor. The patient was treated by left radical nephrectomy. The histologic findings confirmed that it was a tubulo -mucinous carcinoma and spindle cell grade I Furhman contours with non-infiltrating hilar invasion. Because of the favorable prognosis with this type of tumor, mucinous tubular and spindle cell carcinoma must be differentiated from papillary renal cell carcinoma, especially the variant with sarcomatoid differentiation. Our case report of this rare entity aims to draw the attention of pathologists and clinicians to the importance of its diagnosis.
Acutisation of Chronic Renal Failure: About A Case after taking A Plant (Cassia Italica), at the Peace Hospital of Ziguinchor in Southern Senegal (West Africa)
Authors: Y Kane
Published: January 2024

Acute renal failure induced by medicinal plants in Africa is uncertain because the majority of cases are unreported. We present a case of an acutisation of chronic renal failure following the consumption of Cassia Italica leaves. Mrs K.G, 68 years old followed in the nephrology department for stable severe chronic renal failure. The basic renal function (creatinine at 85 mg/l and blood urea at 1.22 g/l (GFR: 28.23 ml/min/1.73m2). She consults for uncontrollable vomiting, epigastralgia, obnubilation. The clinical examination had objectified a calm coma without signs of neurological localization, anuria, edema of the lower limbs and grade III arterial hypertension (BP: 180/100mmHg). The biological assessment showed impaired renal function with serum creatinine at 228.5 mg/l and blood urea at 2.65 g/l. The family admits taking the poison 48 hours before hospitalization by excessive consumption of Cassia italica leaves in the form of a decoction. The use of plants by patients followed in nephrology can aggravate pre-existing kidney disease.

The purpose of this article is to explain the principle of religious moderation in leadership which is associated with the concepts of justice and balance in the Qur'an, lafadz al-'adl and al-qist. The research used in the qualitative data collection method is literature study, but the main data is the verses of justice of the Qur'an and its interpretations, while the secondary data is all literature in the form of literary works. Books, articles and other writings related to and supporting this research. The results of this work include finding the right concept of justice and balance, which is the basic principle of creating religious moderation. By equating the expression fair and balanced with the words al-adl and al-qisth, according to the Qur'an, a leader can apply the principles of justice and balance in his leadership. Even in orders that are binding and exclusive to all purposes, so a leader must

 

be able to treat all parties equally, maintain balance, hold fast to the truth, be firm and firm. complete in decision. Seeing the several notions of justice in the Qur'an above, the words

'adl and al-qisth are more towards moderation because they have the same meaning. This is the background for the writer to use these two words in the context of a fair and balanced government according to the principle of religious moderation. This should be proof that Islam is a religion that deserves to be a role model.

The phenomenon of cyberdakwah circulating on several social media platforms so significantly in the digital era is seen as having an urgent and progressive role as a virtual space in spreading da'wah messages efficiently, effectively, and covering all social lines of life widely without being hindered by area and limited time. Cyberdakwah is also a phenomenon of digital da'wah in virtual space that affects the existence of da'wah in Islam. Cyberdakwah is a modern method of spreading Islamic messages in the digital era through social media. Social media platforms offer opportunities and facilities for da'i to convey the teachings of Islam through virtual space widely and without limits. This research aims to reinterpret the concept of da'wah and analyse the phenomenon of cyberdakwah on social media as a da'wah activity in QS Al-Nahl Verse 125 from Fakhruddin al-Razi's perspective in the book Mafatih al-Ghaib. This research is a literature research using the literature method with non-participant observation and literature review obtained from journals, articles, books, classical turats books and other relevant sources.  The focus of this research is oriented to explain how to reapply the concept of da'wah to address the phenomenon of cyberdakwah on social media according to the analysis of Fakhruddin al-Razi's perspective interpretation theory in QS. Al-Nahl Verse 125 in his tafsir work Mafatih al-Ghaib. The results of this study indicate that there are several concepts and methods of preaching such as stages, ethics, requirements and norms that must be considered in preaching activities, especially on social media. Therefore, the implementation and contribution of the concept of da'wah in this study are expected to be applied in the online realm on social media, considering its effectiveness as a means of Islamic da'wah activities.
