Authors: Araújo Maria Gabriella Da Silva , Araújo Suzana Romeiro , De Souza Lucas Silva , Freire André Augusto Pamplona
Published: February 2020

O desordenado processo de urbanização na cidade de Belém ao longo dos anos ocupou áreas florestais e margens de corpos d’água necessários para estabilidade ecológica, tomando o espaço pertencente à vegetação ciliar. Para a promoção da conservação dos mananciais que abastecem o município de Belém, os lagos Bolonha e Água Preta, foi criado em 1993 o Parque Ambiental de Belém. Este, por sua vez, sofreu processos de degradação com a expansão da Avenida João Paulo II e também, com o aumento populacional ao redor do parque. Sabe-se que a análise espacial de fenômenos é importante para o bom planejamento urbano. Técnicas de sensoriamento remoto são cada vez mais utilizadas para este fim. Objetivou-se com este trabalho, analisar a dinâmica espacial da expansão urbana sob a Área de Proteção Ambiental da Região Metropolitana de Belém através da análise multitemporal de imagens de satélite, dos anos de 1993, 2006 e 2013. Para tanto, utilizaram-se imagens obtidas com sensores dos satélites Landsat 5 e 8, nas quais foi realizada a Classificação Supervisionada de Imagens e determinação do Índice de Vegetação por Diferença Normalizada (NDVI) com posterior produção de mapas. O avanço da antropização foi crescente no período registrado. A vegetação nativa foi reduzida, em aproximadamente 12% nas Unidades de Conservação entre 1993 e 2006, e 21%, entre 2006 e 2013, contrastante às áreas que sofreram alterações antrópicas, pois tiveram um aumento de 8.641.800 m² entre os anos de 1993 a 2013, confirmando o desenfreado processo de urbanização que vem ocorrendo na cidade.

Published: February 2020

Em razão dos grandes desafios para a sociedade futura, a preocupação com os recursos hídricos se tornou de grande relevância para a elaboração de novos modelos de gestão. A inquietação a respeito da degradação de tais recursos se fundamenta nas práticas que podem causar o desequilíbrio ecológico e impactar no desenvolvimento da sociedade. O presente estudo tem como objetivo analisar a relação entre o poder público, o setor privado e a comunidade civil para a gestão dos recursos hídricos. O trabalho discute a crise hídrica, os processos de gestão integrados, os problemas da atual governança e apresenta soluções a serem implementadas pelos principais stakeholders, a fim de minimizar os impactos ambientais e sociais futuros. Para tal, é necessário parcerias intersetoriais aliadas a práticas de preservação e compartilhamento efetivo dos mananciais, levando em consideração o viés econômico, sustentável e de inclusão.
ALTERAÇÕES NA TEMPERATURA DA SUPERFÍCIE DO SOLO EM FUNÇÃO DO USO E OCUPAÇAO EM ÁREAS VERDES URBANAS
Authors: Lucon Filipe , Longo Regina
Published: February 2020

Entre os maiores desafios deste século, destaca-se a superação do conflito entre o desenvolvimento e a preservação do meio ambiente. Dentro de centros urbanos, na maioria das cidades brasileiras, não contaram com um planejamento adequado que conciliasse as novas demandas construtivas com a manutenção das áreas verdes, ocasionando a redução excessiva destes ambientes. Em estudos, foi encontrado que, campi universitários são excelentes locais para estudos do clima por apresentar uma estrutura reduzida de uma cidade, o que facilita a tomada de decisões. Tem-se como objetivo avaliar as alterações no clima promovidas em diferentes formas de uso e ocupação do solo, destacando a necessidade de áreas verdes em ambientes urbanos. Por este motivo, foi avaliado a borda de um fragmento florestal, uma trilha, um canavial e uma área urbanizada no entorno de uma universidade.Para este trabalho, foram adotados quatro ambientes que foram estudados no decorrer do mês de maio de 2018. Através do auxílio de instrumento de medição direta, foi determinado a temperatura da superfície do solo nestes quatro ambientes, que foram a borda de um fragmento florestal, uma trilha, um canavial e área urbanizada. Em cada um destes ambientes foi pré-determinado dez pontos de amostragem que foram coletados em três dias diferentes em 3 semanas distintas do mês de maio de 2018 em diferentes horários que foram pré-determinados (9 horas, 15 horas e 18 horas).Para a análise dos dados coletados foi considerado a variação da temperatura do solo em diferentes pontos distribuídos em cada área estudada, bem como a média de cada dia nos diferentes horários e, por fim, foi realizada uma análise da média geral dos ambientes estudados. Foi feito também uma tabela para cada ambiente que expõe dados como a temperatura máxima, temperatura mínima, amplitude térmica e a mediana apresentada nos pontos de amostragem em cada dia e em cada horário pré-determinado.

Published: February 2020

» Anterior glenohumeral instability is a complex problem that requires careful attention to osseous and soft-tissue lesions in order to treat it effectively.

» The arthroscopic soft-tissue Bankart repair is considered first-line treatment for patients with anterior glenohumeral instability. However, recent long-term outcome studies have shown surprisingly high failure rates, specifically in the setting of anterior glenoid bone loss.

» The definition of “critical” glenoid bone loss that cannot be overcome by a soft-tissue procedure alone continues to evolve and may in fact be lower than the previously published total of 20%.

» Arthroscopic reconstruction of the anterior glenoid margin can be performed with either autograft or allograft. The arthroscopic Latarjet procedure has emerged as a reliable and effective technique for autograft augmentation, while the distal aspect of the tibia appears to be a promising source of allograft.

Objective To estimate the positive predictive value (PPV) of fetal sex chromosome aneuploidy (SCA) screened in non-selective population and explore the rate of pregnancy termination and ultrasound findings for fetal SCA and the factors influencing parents’ decisions in South China. Methods This is a large-scale retrospective cohort of positive SCA screened from unselected singleton pregnancies by non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) from a single prenatal center of a tertiary hospital, from January 2016 to November 2019. Clinical information, indications, diagnostic results, ultrasound findings, pregnancy determinations, and follow-up were reviewed and analyzed. Results 248 cases of SCA positive were screened out of 52453, giving a positive detection rate of 0.47%. The majority of indications (42.7%) were low-risk pregnancies. After genetic counseling, 43 pregnancies (17.3%) declined to prenatal diagnosis, the rest of 205 cases (82.7%) conducted with amniocentesis to detect fetal chromosome, of which 95 were confirmed as true positive of SCA with PPV of 46.3% (95/205). The SCA consisted of 68 sex chromosomal trisomies (26 cases of 47,XXY, 20 cases of 47,XXX and 22 cases of 47,XYY), 17 cases of monosomy X (45,X), three cases of 48,XXYY, three cases of mosaicisms (45,X/46,XX), four cases with sex chromosomal deletions, included two cases of 46,X,del(Y)(q11.21), one case of 46,X,del(X)(p11) and one case of 46,X,i(X)(q10). Of the 95 cases confirmed as true positive SCA, 50 cases (52.6%)chose to terminate the pregnancy (82.6%, 64.3%, 17.6% and 33.3% for 45,X, 47,XXY, 47,XXX and 47,XYY, respectively), 45 cases (47.4%) elected to continue the pregnancy. Ninety-three pregnant were also continued pregnancy after the exclusion of SCA. Conclusions NIPT, as a first-tier routine method for screening autosomal aneuploidies, also could play an important role in screening SCA. Low-risk pregnant women are the main indication for the detection of SCA as NIPT test provides to non-selective population. The trend of overall termination rates of SCA-affected pregnancies is decreased. For 47,XXX and 47,XYY with mild phenotype, couples would like to continue the pregnancy. But for 45,X and 47,XXY, parents apt to terminate pregnancy no matter ultrasound abnormalities were found or not. pregnancy determinations are affected by types of SCA, sonographic findings, maternal age, and presence of infertility.
Vesicle transport in plants: A revised phylogeny of SNARE proteins
Authors: Lindsey Keith , Gu Xiaoyan , Brennan Adrian , Wei Wenbin , Guo Guangqin
Published: February 2020

Background Communication systems within and between plant cells involve the transfer of ions and molecules between compartments, and are essential for development and responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. This is turn requires the regulated movement and fusion of membrane systems with their associated cargo. Recent advances in genomics has provided new resources with which to investigate the evolutionary relationships between membrane proteins across plant species. Results Members of the soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptors (SNAREs) are known to play important roles in vesicle trafficking across plant, animal and microbial species. Using recent public expression and transcriptomic data from nine representative green plants, we investigated the evolution of the SNARE classes and linked protein changes to functional specialization (expression patterns). We identified an additional three putative SNARE genes in the model plant Arabidopsis. We found that all SNARE classes have expanded in number to a greater or lesser degree alongside the evolution of multicellularity. Sub-functionalization of SNARE family members to different tissues, associated with an accumulation of protein changes is typical, although at least one example of neo-functionalization between the R-SNAREs VAMP722 and VAMP723 was also observed. Conclusion These results provide an insight into SNARE protein evolution and functional specialization. The work provides a platform for hypothesis-building and future research into the precise functions of these proteins in plant development and responses to the environment.

Published: February 2020

Background Hyperuricemia is often associated with oxidative stress and vitamin E alters uric acid level in hypertensive rats, consequently, vitamin E may have a significant role in non-hypertensive hyperuricemia. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate anti-hyperuricemic activity of vitamin E on potassium oxonate-induced hyperuricemic rats. Methods Eighteen adult Wistar Albino rats of similar weights were equally divided into group I (normal control), group II (disease control) and group III (treatment control). Group I received 0.5ml normal saline per oral while group II and group III received potassium oxonate (250 mg/kg-intraperitoneal) on day 1, 3, 6, 10, 13 and 15. Group III also received vitamin E (200 mg/kg-per oral) for 15 days. Blood samples were collected through retro orbital plexus from all the animals on day 15 to evaluate uric acid, creatinine, total cholesterol, triglycerides, albumin and blood urea nitrogen, as well joint diameter, and kidneys’ weight was also evaluated. Result We observed a statistically significant rise (p<0.05 or p<0.001) in all the parameters and a significant decline in serum albumin level (p<0.001) in group II as compared to group I, but no significant difference (p>0.05) in all the parameters between group I and III. In contrast to this, a significant reduction in all the parameters (p<0.05 or p<0.001) and significant increase in serum albumin level (p<0.001) were observed in group III as compared to group II. Conclusion Our findings suggest that vitamin E has an anti-hyperuricemic activity against hyperuricemia induced rats.
Biological Evaluation and Molecular Modeling of 3,4-dihydropyrimidine- 2(1H)-one Derivatives as Cytotoxic Agents on Breast Cancer In Vitro
Authors: Sharifi Hoda , Ebadi Ahmad , Soleimani Meysam
Published: February 2020

Background:

Kinesins and tubulin inhibitors have attracted researchers’ attention as
hopeful targets for achieving effective anticancer agents. Dihydropyrimidine-2-ones (DHPMs)
inhibit motor proteins Eg5 in the polymerization process of tubulin, also scaffold bearing
benzothiazole heterocycle can block tubulin polymerization/depolymerization.

Objective:

In this study, the cytotoxic effects and molecular modeling of newly synthesized
derivatives of DHPM that were designed by the Scaffold-hopping approach were investigated as
potential dual-inhibitors of Eg5 and tubulin.

Methods:

We investigated the cytotoxic effects of DHPMs derivatives by MTT assay and measureing
the Caspase 3 activity. Also, molecular modeling studies were performed by AutoDock4 and
GROMACS 4.5.6.

Results:

According to the results, the d2 derivative (IC50 = 68.58 ± 7, SI = 2.57) eliminates MDA-MB-
231 cells in a dose-dependent manner through caspase-dependent and caspase-independent cell death
pathways. Molecular docking studies revealed that the d2 compound could interact with both Eg5 and
tubulin key residues. MD simulation also demonstrated the stability of the studied ligand-receptor
complexes during the 30 ns of the production run. The effectiveness of substitutions at C4 of the
DHPM ring was obtained 4-acetoxy-phenyl, 4-methoxyphenyl, and 4-nitrophenyl, respectively.

Conclusion:

The findings of the present study provide evidence that DHPM C5 amide derivatives
bearing benzothiazole ring might be considered as promising lead compounds for the discovery of
novel and multi-target antitumor agents.
A Vision on Extensions of Canonical Correlation Analysis for Data Interpretation Applications in Compatible Semantic Communication
Authors: Sharma Sandeep , Verma Himani
Published: February 2020

Background:

A comprehensive approach to Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA)
technique that explicitly enhances data interpretation by encountering semantic barriers in communication
is proposed.

Object:

To the extent that there exist potential inconsistencies due to redundancy and misinterpretation
of data attributes, compatibility with respect to data interpretation may defer. For a consolidated
and technology dependent network infrastructure, the concept of inclusive CCA (such as
linear CCA, sparse CCA and kernel CCA) further asserts the inclusion of statistical correlational
analysis in semantic communication.

Methods:

A Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) based Latent Semantic Indexing (LSI) method
is substantiated upon a linear dataset and simulation results are canonically analyzed for the same.

Results:

Favorably, the p-value analysis from the t-test validates the significance of the application
of extensions of CCA in the field of semantic communication.

Conclusion:

Hence, CCA as a statistical technique incorporates both symmetric as well as asymmetric
multivariate data analysis to help delineate the incompatibility caused due to subtle semantic-
defects.
The Mediator Roles of Problematic Internet Use and Perceived Stress Between Health Behaviors and Work-Life Balance Among Internet Users in Germany and China: Web-Based Cross-Sectional Study
Authors: Gao Lingling , Gan Yiqun , Whittal Amanda , Yan Song , Lippke Sonia
Published: February 2020

Background

Work-life balance is associated with health behaviors. In the face of digitalization, understanding this link requires a theory-based investigation of problematic internet use and perceived stress, which are so far unknown.

Objective

On the basis of the compensatory carry-over action model, this study aimed to determine whether problematic internet use and perceived stress mediate the relationship between health behaviors and work-life balance in two groups of internet users from different environments (residents in Germany and China). We also investigated whether the place of residence was a moderator.

Methods

An online questionnaire (N=877) was administered to residents from Germany (n=374) and China (n=503) in 3 languages (German, English, and Chinese). Moderated mediation analyses were run with health behaviors as the independent variable, work-life balance as the dependent variable, problematic internet use and perceived stress as the mediator variables, and place of residence as a potential moderator.

Results

On a mean level, individuals in Germany reported less problematic internet use and more health behaviors than individuals in China; however, they also had lower work-life balance and higher perceived stress. Results showed that health behaviors seem to be directly related to work-life balance in both groups. Among the residents of Germany, a partial mediation was revealed (β=.13; P=.01), whereas among the residents of China, a full mediation was found (β=.02; P=.61). The mediator role of perceived stress was compared with problematic internet use in all the serial models and the parallel model. Residence moderated the relationship between health behaviors and work-life balance: The interrelation between health behaviors and work-life balance was stronger in Germany (β=.19; P<.001) than in China (β=.11; P=.01) when controlling for other variables.

Conclusions

The findings of this study are in line with the compensatory carry-over action model. To promote work-life balance, individuals should perform health behaviors to help overcome problematic internet use and perceived stress. Both problematic internet use and perceived stress mediated health behaviors and work-life balance partially in German study participants and fully in Chinese study participants.

Тhe impact of Werner Sombart`s Merchants and Heroes on the conception of geopolitical dualism of tellurocracy and thalassocracy
Authors: Gajic Aleksandar
Published: February 2020

This paper examines the connection between the war pamphlet ?Merchants and
Heroes? (1915) of Werner Sombart, one of the greatest European sociologists
of the 20th century, and geopolitical theories about the conflict between
land and sea powers. Although Sombart?s pamphlet emphasizes the
spiritual-moral and cultural-sociological dualism between Germany and
England in the First World War, where the first represents the
characteristics of heroes and idealists and the other of merchants and
opportunists, the paper shows that this conflict was primarily a war for the
territories - a geopolitical conflict, and, only secondary, a
cultural-normative conflict. Historical anal?ysis shows that German
geostrategic actions before the Great War (in their colonial policy) and
during the Great War were not in opposition, but very similar to Great
Britain`s policies. Therefore, it can be assumed that the war between
Germany and Great Britain 435 broke out because of the rivalries based on
their similarities, both in actions and pretensions. Moreover, Wilhelmine
Germany was almost copying Britain?s colonial expansion, so it became the
greatest threat to Great Britain`s geostrategic interest. Further, the
research established the links between the views of Sombart and Karl Schmitt
and, later, with the oversized opposition between land and sea powers as
?the second law of geopolitics? in the views of some geopolitical thinkers
during the 20th century. The paper shows that the sources of both views are
the same and that they lie in the German romantic-idealistic youth
subculture movements at the turn of the 20th century adopted in academic
circles before the Great War, primarily in the philosophy of Kurt Hiller and
sociology of George Simmel, from which they were accepted by Werner Sombart.

Medical Experimentation Concerning Chemical and Biological Weapons for Mass Destruction
Authors: Deutsch Erwin
Published: February 2020

This article is the text of a speech originally presented at the Second World Conference on Medical Ethics at Gijon, Spain, on 2 October 2002 under the title "Medical Experimentation Concerning Chemical and Biological Weapons for Mass Destruction: Clinical Design for New Smallpox Vaccines: Ethical and Legal Aspects". Experimentation on vaccines such as smallpox is subject to the usual ethical rules such as the need for informed consent. However, the participants will not often be at risk of catching the disease but expose themselves by taking part in the experimentation. Professor Deutsch explores the implications of this, including the position of vulnerable groups such as children, those with mental handicaps, and those acting under orders such as the military, the police and fire officers.
Administering Accident Compensation in the 1980s
Authors: Rennie Don
Published: February 2020

Having met its initial administrative challenges, ACC encountered serious political pressures in the turbulent economy of the 1980s. Pressure from employers to reduce costs, as well as controversies over lump-sum payments and other benefit levels, led to changes in entitlements, in conjunction with corporate reorganisation. This paper describes the shifts in organisational culture within ACC in the early 1980s and explains the fiscal consequences of the new “pay-as-you-go” funding formula. Even though formal reviews of the scheme paid homage to the original Woodhouse principles, the assumptions underlying these principles were losing ground in the face of economic tensions and eroding confidence in state-run programmes.
The Strange Death of the Realm of New Zealand: The Implications of a New Zealand Republic for the Cook Islands and Niue
Authors: Townend Andrew
Published: February 2020

The Cook Islands and Niue are self-governing States within the Realm of New Zealand, freely associated with New Zealand and linked by a shared Head of State: the Sovereign in right of New Zealand. If New Zealand were to become a republic, it is likely that the constitutional link would be broken. The other aspects of the relationships of free association would not necessarily be affected, though their entrenched status in Cook Islands and Niue law could render difficult the technical amendments required to accommodate a republican New Zealand. A Realm of New Zealand of which New Zealand was no longer a part could also live on, with only minor amendment to the laws of the Cook Islands and Niue. But it would be neither desirable nor appropriate for current constitutional arrangements to continue. New Zealand's becoming a republic would ultimately provoke fundamental constitutional change in the Cook Islands and Niue, mostly likely resulting in their becoming self-governing realms or republics in free association with New Zealand.
Detention of Refugees in New Zealand Law: Striking a Balance Between Refugee Rights and National Security
Authors: Frater Charlotte
Published: February 2020

In this paper the author examines New Zealand's international obligations regarding the detention of Refugees and how these are implemented domestically. Article 31 of the Refugee Convention 1951 states that their detention is only permissible where necessary, and related documents outline these circumstances. The Convention contains an appropriate balance between the special needs of refugees and respect for national security, which unfortunately is not always present in our domestic legislation.Section 128(5) of the Immigration Act 1987 allows refugees to be detained. However, this is subject to the requirements of the Convention due to section 129X(2) of the Act. The Court of Appeal in the Refugee Council case1 decided that an operational instruction issued after September 11, and coinciding with a significant increase in the numbers detained, was not unlawful. The author argues that the balance has swung too far in favour of national security, but concedes that the Immigration Amendment Act 2002 has gone some way to rectify the situation by providing conditional release procedures.

Ticino, jego mieszkańcy i ich tożsamość językowo-kulturowa Ticino, jego mieszkańcy i ich tożsamość językowo-kulturowa
Authors: Linda-Grycza Katarzyna
Published: February 2020

The purpose of the article is to discuss and analyze the linguistic and cultural identity of Ticino and its inhabitants . The text presents the Swiss region and its language(s) from a historical and contemporary perspective, as well as two areas of language micro-policy: 1) implemented in the region by representatives of local elites/decision makers 2) present in the daily life of the inhabitants of Ticino: their decisions, views and attitudes towards languages . Discussion of these issues is based on the analysis of ethnographic research conducted in the region and existing documents and literature on the subject . I argue that although multilingualism is present in the region and in its inhabitants’ beliefs and everyday life practices, it does not contradict the fact that Italian is considered to be culturally the most important distinguishing feature of Ticino and the main language of the canton . I conclude that language policy implemented at the regional and local level in recent times has had little impact on the linguistic and cultural identity of the region and its inhabitants .

A cultura da soja é uma das principais culturas do agronegócio brasileiro, podendo ser limitada por adubações equivocadas em área de cerrado. Com o presente trabalho, objetivou-se avaliar os efeitos da adubação fosfatada, pelo uso de fontes e doses na adubação de manutenção da cultura da soja, na fertilidade do solo, em condições de solo com alto teor de P. O experimento foi realizado em delineamento em blocos ao acaso, com quatro repetições, em esquema fatorial de 2x5, sendo o primeiro fator fontes de fertilizantes (superfosfato triplo e superfosfato triplo de eficiência aumentada) e segundo fator doses de P2O5 (0, 40, 80, 120 e 240 kg ha-1).

PT. GAA is an international company that employs 4300 employees based in Tangerang, Banten, Indonesia. PT. GAA is able to maintain and repair aircraft, ranging from light repair maintenance to overhauls, maintenance and repair of engines, APU (Auxiliary Power Units) and aircraft components, and cabin modifications. The time to complete the repair of APU sometimes exceeds the Turnaround Time (TAT) that is determined which is 45 days. In fact, there are many delays that occur in returning APU to consumers. In this research report applying the Gantt chart, RCA and 5 Whys Analysis methods, to find out the main causes of delays in the repair process through 10 gates and to find out which gate has the longest delay. From the results of the study, it was found that after the 131-9 APU data collection amounted to 30 units, for 1 year, it was found that the gate which experienced the longest delay was Gate 5, Gate 3, Gate 8 and Gate. 7 and the main cause is the limited ability to repair the APU, the lack of personnel ready to work and the technical problems that occur during APU testing and limited assembly space, equipment for APU assembly and supplies.

In the paper there is considered a stair flight overcoming by a wheel jumping robot during lifting upon it. The robot consists of a casing, an accelerating module ensuring device separation from a surface and a wheel platform at the expense of which a robot moves on even surfaces and it is positioned in front of a stair flight. The latter is characterized with the footstep number, a length and a height of each footstep that defines the number of robot jumps (from one up to footstep number), and also a height and a length of each jump.

In the work there are introduced and described basic parameters of a stair flight, jump characteristics and also the limitations imposed upon a rate of robot separation from a surface and an angle of a slope of its vector and specified by staircase parameters. As qualitative criteria of the stair flight overcoming are energy and time spent at that. As a result of the computational modeling it is determined that at stair flight jumping over in a single bound the required rate of separation of the jumping robot from a surface and also energy and time spent for a jump increase with the growth of the staircase number in the stair flight at that a rate and time – according to curvilinear laws, and energy – proportionally to the number of staircases in the stair flight. Besides, there are investigated six versions for jumping robot to overcome stair flights with the different number of staircases, at that the number of staircases to jump over in a single bound at each version of jump series fulfillment is equal. At that there is no clear regularity between energy and the number of jumps carried out (and staircases to jump over) and time spent increases with the increase of the jump number. The optimization of jumping robot motion on a stair flight from the point of view of the minimization of time and energy consumption is carried out as a result of which the necessity to overcome a staircase in one bound irrespective of the number of footsteps is carried out.

BackgroundThe number of cancer survivors continues to increase due to advancements in cancer treatment. Consequently, the number of patients requiring post-operative surveillance protocols have increased, highlighting the need to develop post-operative surveillance protocols that increase survival benefit while remaining both cost- and resource-effective. MethodsWe carried out a comprehensive and systematic literature search of medical databases for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in which patients with solid tumors 18 years of age or older that had undergone surgical resection with curative intent and had no metastatic disease at presentation, were randomized to different surveillance regimens to assess the effect on overall survival (OS). According to a priori definitions, surveillance programs were classified as (1) biological test, (2) frequency, (3) imaging, or (4) practitioner type. We carried out a pooled effect size estimate on risk ratios (RR) to evaluate the effect of more intensive versus less intensive surveillance strategies in each of the surveillance program categories on overall survival (OS). ResultsOur search yielded a total of 32,216 articles for review. Following all screening stages, 18 distinct RCTs were included in the systematic review. Most studies evaluated colorectal cancer patients (11/18, [61%]). Twenty-one comparisons from the 18 trials were included in the meta-analysis, with no significant difference in OS for any of the more intensive surveillance program categories analysed. One comparison evaluated biological test interventions and therefore, a meta-analysis was not conducted. Six comparisons were classified as frequency interventions with a combined RR of 0.96 (95% CI: 0.79-1.16). Eleven comparisons were classified as imaging interventions with a combined RR of 0.99 (95% CI: 0.91-1.08). Two comparisons were classified as practitioner type interventions with a combined RR of 1.106 (95% CI: 0.64-1.91). No difference in OS was observed in any of the cancer type subgroup analyses. Conclusion The cost of cancer care is steadily rising due to the growing number of cancer survivors, leading to questions in the ability of healthcare systems to meet the needs of patients. This study demonstrated that there is currently no evidence to support any kind of more intensive surveillance in solid cancers after treatment when considering OS as the primary outcome. However, due to persistent clinical equipoise and advancements in surveillance options, further large RCTs are required to evaluate the most optimal surveillance protocol for individual cancer types.
A Case of Diffuse Pneumocephalus With Air Bubble Sign
Authors: Magar Birat Thapa , Malik Mubashir , Butt Rizwan Masood , Sheikh Faiq
Published: February 2020

Background: Pneumocephalus is defined as presence of intracranial gas. It can be at any site in the cranium; isolated or at different sites simultaneously. Quantity of gas along with extent of mass effect caused by it & severity of clinical symptoms will determine the modality of treatment; i.e. conservative or surgical. Among many etiologies trauma is one, which is one of the most common cause as in our case. Multiple foci of gas scattered within the subarachnoid space, especially in the cisterns seen on CT scan of brain has been described as “Air bubble sign”, indicating of subdural tension PNC. Here we have presented our case with review of management of such condition, especially conservative.

Case: A case of 55yrs male with history of road traffic accident was referred from another hospital. CT scan of Brain done in previous center showed diffuse PNC scattered throughout the subarachnoid space. The patient was managed conservatively and successive repeat CT scan showed gradual to complete resorption of gas and simultaneous clinical improvement of the patient.

Conclusion: “Air bubble sign” described as a sign of tension PNC can be managed conservatively in absence of significant clinical symptoms and may not only be associated with subdural tension PNC. The modality of treatment of PNC as well for tension PNC should be tailored according to the patient’s clinical status.
