Background: Sickle cell diseases (SCDs) are inborn and severe destructive processes on vascular endothelium, particularly at the capillaries which are the actual distributors of the sickled or just hardened red blood cells (RBCs) into the tissues. Methods: All patients with the SCDs were included. Results: We studied 222 males and 212 females with similar ages (30.8 vs 30.3 years, p>0.05, respectively). Disseminated teeth losses (5.4% vs 1.4%, p<0.001), ileus (7.2% vs 1.4%, p<0.001), cirrhosis (8.1% vs 1.8%, p<0.001), leg ulcers (19.8% vs 7.0%, p<0.001), clubbing (14.8% vs 6.6%, p<0.001), coronary heart disease (18.0% vs 13.2%, p<0.05), chronic renal disease (9.9% vs 6.1%, p<0.05), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (25.2% vs 7.0%, p<0.001), and stroke (12.1% vs 7.5%, p<0.05) were higher in males but not acute chest syndrome (2.7% vs 3.7%), pulmonary hypertension (12.6% vs 11.7), deep venous thrombosis and/or varices and/or telangiectasias (9.0% vs 6.6%), or mean age of mortality (30.2 vs 33.3 years) (p>0.05 for all). Conclusion: The sickled or just hardened RBCs-induced capillary endothelial damage, inflammation, edema, and fibrosis are initiated at birth, and terminate with disseminated tissue hypoxia, multiorgan failures, and sudden deaths even at childhood. Although RBCs suspensions and corticosteroids in acute, and aspirin plus hydroxyurea both in acute and chronic phases decrease severity, survivals are still shortened in both genders, dramatically. Infections, medical or surgical emergencies, or emotional stress-induced increased basal metabolic rate may accelerate sickling, and an exaggerated capillary endothelial edemainduced myocardial infarction or stroke may be the cause of sudden deaths in the SCDs.

Published: September 2024

This study investigates the evolving cultural and diplomatic ties between Mongolia and Korea since the establishment of diplomatic relations in 1990. As the popularity of Korean popular culture and economic ties increase, along with cultural exchange between the two nations, there has been a significant rise in the demand for Korean language education in Mongolia. This trend is primarily driven by the younger generation, resulting in a substantial presence of Mongolian students in Korea. The stability and growth in the number of Mongolian students studying in Korea underscore sustained interest and engagement. This article carefully examines the multifaceted factors contributing to this trend, encompassing cultural exchanges inspired by Korean popular culture, governmental initiatives, and Mongolia’s rich educational history. Notably, it addresses the historical foundations of Mongolia’s high literacy rate and the proactive role of Mongolian parents in fostering education. The expansive higher education sector in Mongolia is explored, acknowledging its growth since the early 1990s. Additionally, the study sheds light on the challenges confronted by international students in Korea, emphasizing the necessity for robust support systems. Furthermore, it delves into Korea’s initiatives to attract and seamlessly integrate foreign talent, with a focus on Mongolian graduates, into its workforce. This paper also recognizes the complexities and dynamics that prompt Mongolian students to seek international opportunities, emphasizing the need for support structures. This perspective is essential for the leaders and officials of both nations as they navigate the educational landscape and plan collaborative ventures contributing to mutual economic and social development.

Mirar al futuro: una aproximación al análisis textual de la distopía cinematográfica
Authors: Rey Segovia Ana Clara
Published: September 2024

In recent years, dystopia has become an important object of study in academic circles within the broad spectrum of science fiction. Nonetheless, the majority of studies on audiovisual dystopian production have prioritized the examination of its strictly narrative aspects, disregarding the stylistic and formal elements that structure audiovisual texts. This paper intends to offer a possible approach to dystopian images from a perspective that combines critical and contextual analysis of these audiovisual productions with film analysis, thus providing specific analytical tools related to this field of study. To achieve this, and as an illustration of the possibilities of this approach, we will discuss some of the most relevant 21st-century dystopian films, including Steven Spielberg's Minority Report (2002) and Ready Player One (2018), along with noteworthy works like Alfonso Cuarón's Children of Men (2006) and Denis Villeneuve's Blade Runner 2049 (2017). Drawing upon the conceptualization of filmic text from authors such as Barthes, Kristeva, Metz and Carmona, we intend to analyze the films from two fundamental and complementary angles: one addressing the link between text(s) and context(s), and the other dealing with the possible identifications the films propose in terms of the spectatorial gaze.
Indígenas cambiando el Occidente antiguo: las ucronías reivindicativas de la historia
Authors: Rodrigo-Mendizábal Iván Fernando
Published: September 2024

What would have happened if the civilizations originating from America had discovered and colonized Europe? This question, however fantastic, is pierced by the intention of looking back at indigenous cultures not with a romantic perspective, but with one that inquires into the positions of many social groups that reaffirm their Westernism. Thus, uchronic science fiction proposes different forms of response and shows another way of telling the “story,” probably reclaiming or criticizing Western reason. This article aims to show how, from this rationality, certain writers and artists try to rethink the other side of History, that of those who should have a voice and active presence and even a political presence that establishes a new ethos. Thus, from the studies of comparative literature, we expose and try to find links and tensions in the discourses of the artistic installation and the book-album of Eduardo Villacís, The art of smoking mirror: el espejo humeante, crónicas (Ecuador, 2003) and the novels of Federico Andahazi, El conquistador (Argentina, 2006) and Lauren Binet, Civilizaciones (France, 2020). Such works advance a thesis that probably has to do with current indigenous emergencies: What would happen if the government of the contemporary world were indeed in the hands of indigenous nationalities? Latin American and European science fiction seems to discuss this idea from a critical fictional horizon of notable interest.

Summarizing, I would like to note that in order to achieve the goals of the punishment, a number of processes should be put in order, a special approach to individuals during the punishment and inculcation of some skills and profession along with educational work, as well as the work with ex-convicts after release from the penal institution should not be formal, but real, and having the financial support of the state to help them stay alive will help prevent them from committing crimes again. Also, in the process of determining the type of penal institution where offenders will be sentenced to imprisonment for a certain period of time, the category and severity of the crime, along with the identity of the person who committed the crime, and how he is characterized by other people, his outlook on life, and the motive of the crime he committed, are taken into account. if it is determined, it can prevent convicts from becoming criminalized during their prison life. Public political progress, the formation of a way of thinking, education, propaganda, improving the social economic situation, increasing the level of people's well-being are irreplaceable as prevention in preventing the commission of new crimes by other people. In addition, the preparation of large-scale films and programs reflecting the negative impact of people convicted of crimes, the regret they experience later and the negative impact of their crimes on their families, relatives and people around them, and the use of the power of social media in this direction, will also help people to commit crimes. can help him imagine the negative consequences and deter him from crime.

"Search and Seizure" investigative action acts as a way to solve the problem of evidence, which is one of the important issues in the direction of investigating and solving crimes. In many cases, it is through this investigative action that evidence is discovered and seized. That is why the legal and practical problems that will occur in conducting the mentioned investigative action may lead to wrong prosecution and loss of evidence in the case. For this, the existing normative legislation regarding the conduct of this investigative action should be followed and certain steps should be taken to improve these norms in the modern era.

Authors:   Associate Professor, Department of Business Administration, University of Scholars, Dhaka, Bangladesh, Ali Md. Mokshud , Tabassum Tanbina ,   Assistant Professor, Department of Business Administration, Premier University, Chittagong
Published: September 2024

For a considerable amount of time, companies have used mergers and acquisitions (M&A) as strategic strategies to improve their competitive edge, create synergies, and raise shareholder value. By investigating the short- and long-term gains and performance of acquiring organizations, this study seeks to assess the financial results of M&A. Its primary objective is to determine the critical elements that impact the success or failure of these deals. The qualitative research approach of this study, which is based on secondary data, entails a thorough assessment of the literature and publication. The discussion highlights several crucial elements that affect M&A results, such as the difficulties in achieving synergies, the disparity between short-term market responses and long-term performance, the significance of cultural integration and strategic fit, the effects of payment methods and market timing, and the role of managerial objectives and regulatory concerns. New developments are also looked at, including the growing significance of technology-driven acquisitions and ESG considerations. Important conclusions draw attention to the intricate interactions among variables influencing M&A performance, the challenges in realizing expected synergies, and the significance of successful post-merger integration. The report also highlights the significance of cultural fit for merger success and the necessity of taking a long-term view when assessing M&A outcomes. Strengthening corporate governance, incorporating ESG considerations into M&A strategy, focusing on technology integration, mitigating risks in cross-border M&A, preparing for regulatory scrutiny, embracing a long-term perspective, prioritizing strategic fit and cultural due diligence, improving post-merger integration planning, and fostering a culture of continuous learning and adaptation are just a few of the recommendations. By presenting a thorough study of the variables impacting M&A outcomes and helpful advice for practitioners and policymakers in navigating the intricacies of M&A transactions, this research adds to the body of knowledge already in existence.

Uterine Carcinosarcoma with Heterologous Mesenchymal Elements: A Rare Case Report
Authors: Swasti Dr
Published: September 2024

Uterine carcinosarcoma (UCS) also referred to as malignant mixed mullerian tumour (MMMT), is a rare and highly aggressive tumour that features both epithelial and mesenchymal elements, exhibiting a clinical presentation that is akin to endometrial carcinoma.. Here, we describe a case of high-grade UCS with heterologous elements including rhabdomyosarcoma and chondrosarcoma. The lady presented with a history of postmenopausal bleeding and abdominal pain with imaging studies indicating a thickened endometrium. Subsequent endometrial biopsy revealed a diagnosis of high-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma (HG-ESS). Following surgical staging, a pathology confirmed the presence of UCS with sarcomatous elements comprising of rhabdomyosarcoma and chondrosarcoma. She received adjuvant chemoradiotherapy. This case emphasizes the significance of a comprehensive pathological assessment in making treatment decisions and improving patient’s outcomes in the management of rare uterine malignancies.
Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Evaluation of Endometriosis: Case-Based Pictorial Essay
Authors: Harshe Gayatri Ulhas
Published: September 2024

We present a pictorial exhibit of endometriosis with a case-based overview of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in both pelvic and extra pelvic locations. All the cases with a clinical history of suspected endometriosis were reviewed retrospectively from the Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) database from 2020 to 2024. Cases with features of deep endometriotic implants, endometriomas, and surface endometriotic deposits were identified. Additionally, other spectrums of endometriosis, like adenomyosis, were also included. An MRI is the best imaging diagnostic tool for preoperative staging of endometriosis as it allows for performing a complete assessment of all the pelvic compartments and extrapelvic locations simultaneously. It helps to plan a multidisciplinary approach, which decreases the postoperative complication rates. It is helpful in followup cases after the surgical excision of deep endometriotic implants. Understanding the imaging findings and thorough knowledge about the pelvic anatomy increase the accuracy of endometriosis diagnosis.

Inherited retinal degenerations (IRD) classically present in youth, but may present in older adults. Misdiagnosis as age-related macular degeneration (AMD) can be avoided with appropriate investigations which may alter management and prognosis for some. We describe a retrospective case series of with IRD referred as AMD. An 82-year-old female had a bullseye maculopathy (CRX deletion) and a 72-year-old male had Stargardt disease with biallelic ABCA4 genotype. An index of suspicion in atypical ‘AMD’ cases combined with appropriate clinical and molecular investigations can achieve an IRD diagnosis altering management decisions.
Occult nonmetallic intraocular foreign body: A case report
Authors: Dr Syed Zafar  , Mandeep Lamba  , Diljeet Kaur Gahir  , Haya Qassem
Published: September 2024

Introduction
Eye injuries are the leading cause of monocular blindness in children. Male patients outnumber female patients as victims of eye injuries by a ratio of 4:1. The most common causes of open globe injuries were sharp objects such as knives and scissors. Endophthalmitis is reported more in lacerated globes than ruptured globes. An aggressive prophylactic medical therapy protocol should be used in the future for patients at higher risk of developing endophthalmitis. We present a pediatric case of a penetrating globe injury.
 Case report
A 6-month-old child presented to the clinic with pain, epiphora and photophobia in the right eye. She was initially managed with topical steroids, topical antibiotics, cyclopentolate and then referred.
During our examination, she was found to have a self-opposed entry wound at the limbus that appeared to be created by a sharp object. An opacified lens was clearly seen on handheld slip lamp examination. On B-scan ultrasonography we could identify a hyper-reflective area that was concerning for a foreign body in close contact with the retina.
The patient underwent wound repair with Lensectomy Vitrectomy with Endolaser and subsequent removal of intraocular foreign body with injection of intravitreal antibiotics under General Anesthesia. During the surgery we discovered a small cilium which extended from the sclera, through the retina, and into the vitreous.
The patient is now well but still awaiting to get a secondary intraocular lens insertion done.
Discussion
Intraocular foreign bodies carry a high risk of complications, especially when not detected promptly. OGIs with IOFB involving the posterior segment are associated with higher complication and re-operation rates and worse visual prognosis compared to those involving the anterior segment only.
B-scan ultrasonography is frequently ordered in this setting as a first line imaging study but has a suboptimal sensitivity for echo lucent foreign bodies. The majority of evidence in favor of CT as the imaging modality of choice for detection of IOFB comes from reports of metallic or otherwise radio-opaque (glass or stone) foreign bodies. In cases of less radio dense foreign bodies, CT imaging has reduced sensitivity. 
Conclusion
Proper diagnosis and urgent management is crucial for any globe injuries to prevent any further complications like endophthalmitis. Patients should follow a regular follow up schedule to maintain and restore his eye health.

We found mediation effects of procedural justice in the relationship between justice climate and satisfaction, and interactional justice in the relationship between injustice target and satisfaction. Distributive justice does not affect the relationship between the (in)justice context and satisfaction. Findings demonstrate the relevance of framing organizational justice in a socially contextualized perspective since they seem to influence individual justice reactions and work attitudes. Using an experimental methodology, it was possible to explore the role of seldom studied contextual variables.

Published: September 2024

Automatizirano trgovanje kripto valutama je proces korištenja računalnih programa za automatizirano izvršavanje trgovačkih aktivnosti na kripto tržištima koje se oslanja na kompleksne algoritme i strategije za analizu tržišnih podataka, identifikaciju trgovačkih prilika i izvršavanje trgovinskih naloga u realnom vremenu. Ciljevi algoritamskog trgovanja kripto valutama uključuju povećanje brzine izvršenja, smanjenje ljudske greške, optimizaciju trgovačkih strategija i smanjenje emocionalnog utjecaja na trgovanje. Kroz povratno testiranje i optimizaciju algoritama, trgovci mogu testirati i prilagoditi svoje strategije kako bi se poboljšala njihova učinkovitost i profitabilnost. Kripto algoritmi se koriste u situacijama kada trgovci žele optimizirati svoje trgovanje, smanjiti vrijeme koje troše na analizu tržišta, ili žele iskoristiti trgovačke prilike koje se pojavljuju na kripto tržištima bez neprekidnog praćenja. Međutim, važno je imati na umu da korištenje kripto algoritama nosi određene rizike, uključujući tehničke poteškoće i potencijalne gubitke u slučaju nepredvidljivih tržišnih uvjeta. Stoga je važno pažljivo planirati i nadgledati korištenje kripto algoritama. U radu će biti prikazan primjer algoritamskog trgovanja korištenjem pine skript funkcije i RSI indikatora na platformi Trading View.

Effects of Carbohydrate-Protein Ingestion Post-Resistance Training in Male Rugby Players
Authors: Coyle Colin , Donne Bernard , Mahony Nick
Published: September 2024

Evidence suggests that carbohydrate-protein (CHO-PRO) drinks post-exercise are an advantageous nutritional recovery intervention. Resistance trained (n = 14, mean ± SD; age 19 ± 1 yr, mass 95 ± 9 kg, % fat 17 ± 4 % and BMI 28.5 ± 1.8 kg.m-2) male rugby players participated in a study investigating effects of carbohydrate (CHO) and CHO-PRO drinks on subsequent resistance exercise performance. Following an initial resistance training (RT) protocol consisting of 8 circuits of 5 discrete exercises at 10 repetition maximum (RM), participants received 10 mL.kg-1 BM of randomised sports drink (LCHO, HCHO and CHO-PRO) on completion of the RT protocol and at 120 min into a 240 min recovery period. Post-recovery, participants completed a test to failure (TTF) protocol performing as many circuits of the same exercises at 10-RM to failure. Individual exercise cumulative load (ƩW) lifted and total work capacity (TWC) for each trial was recorded. Both ƩW and TWC were normalised for body mass (kg.kg-1 BM). Data were analysed using repeated measures ANOVA with post-hoc Student-Neuman-Keuls pair-wise comparisons (P<0.05). Despite large intra-subject variability between trials, TWC normalised for body mass was significantly greater following CHO-PRO compared with HCHO and LCHO (188 ± 26 vs. 157 ± 21 and 150 ± 16 kg.kg-1 BM, respectively; P<0.05). The ƩW lifted after ingestion of HCHO and LCHO were not significantly different despite differing CHO and caloric content. The CHO-PRO induced enhancement of recovery was possibly due to higher rates of glycogen restoration after the initial glycogen depleting RT protocol.
Stability Ball Sitting Versus Chair Sitting During Sub-maximal Arm Ergometry
Authors: Marks Charles , Hylland Kristina , Terrell Jacob
Published: September 2024

Purpose: It was predicted that sitting on a stability ball during arm ergometry would elevate cardiovascular parameters when compared to sitting on a chair and that this would be associated with greater recruitment of trunk and leg skeletal muscles. Methods: Open-circuit spirometry, video taping, blood pressure, heart rate, and EMG were conducted during rest and four minute stages of 15 W, 30 W, and 45 W using a Monark arm ergometer. Twenty-six apparently healthy adults exercised twice, once sitting on a stability ball and the other sitting on a chair (order randomized), with 45 to 60 minutes of rest between. ANOVA for repeated measures and paired-t testing were used for analysis. Results: Oxygen consumption was significantly 10 to 16% higher during exercise while sitting on the stability ball. There were no significant differences between sitting modes for heart rate, SBP, and DBP. Also, resting and exercise rectus femoris and 45 W external oblique EMGs were significantly higher on the stability ball. Finally, the knee was significantly more extended with the feet farther apart and more forward on the stability ball. Conclusion: The stability ball significantly elevates oxygen consumption during sub-maximal arm cranking without significantly increasing heart rate or blood pressure and this is associated with increased thigh muscle activation and lower leg repositioning.
