Mangosteen is one of the horticultural products that easily damages and has a relatively short shelf-life.  The abilities of the mixed of APSA 80 and sesame oil with different concentrations as coting materials to maintain the quality and extend the self-life of mangosteen fruits were tested during storage. The main objective was to find the best mixed concentrations of the APSA 80 and Sesame oil as coating material for mangosteen fruits. Sesame oil is known to be the most resistant to rancidity because it contains natural antioxidants and high oleic acid.  APSA 80 is as a spreader and gluing the mixed material and as an emulsifier. The experimental design used in this study was a Completely Randomized Design with three factors,  namely the concentration of APSA 80 (0%, 0.03%, and 0.06%), the concentration of sesame oil (0%, 0.5%, 1%) and storage temperatures (28 ± 2oC and 10 ± 1oC). The result showed that the mixed concentrations of  0.06% APSA 80 and 0.5 % sesame oil, as well as the mixed concentrations of  0.06% APSA 80 and 1.0 % sesame oil  were the best coating materials to maintain quality and extend the self-life of mangosteen fruits. The both formulations of the coatings maintain the self life for 25 days at where the colors of the arils were snowy white, the color of skin surfaces were redish purple, and the pericarps were not yet hardenings.

Authors: Akal Ceren , Mercanoğlu Taban Birce
Published: September 2020

Sütte laktik asit bakterileri daha fazla olmasına karşın, Listeria, Brucella, Mycobacterium, Staphylococcus, Escherichia coli O157:H7 ve Salmonella cinsi patojen bakterilerin de varlığı muhtemeldir. Süt yüksek besin değerine sahip bileşenler içermesi ve dolayısıyla mikroorganizma gelişimi ve çoğalması için uygun ortam olması nedenleriyle, içerdiği mikroorganizma popülasyonları insan sağlığını tehdit edecek sayılara kısa süre içinde ulaşabilmektedirler. Bu nedenle sütün tüketilmeden önce mikrobiyel açıdan güvenli hale getirilmesi oldukça önemli bir konudur. Bu amaçla uygulanabilecek tekniklerden biri olan mikrofiltrasyon işlemi, basınç etkisiyle sütün belirli çaplarda gözeneklere sahip membranlardan geçirilmesi sonucu sütten mikroorganizmaların fiziksel olarak ayrılmasını sağlamaktadır. Mikrofiltrasyon uygulanan sütün mikroorganizma yükü ile ilgili yapılan çalışmalar sütteki mikroorganizma sayısının, kullanılan membranların gözenek çapları, sütün başlangıç mikroorganizma yükü, sıcaklık ve basınç gibi çalışma koşullarına bağlı olarak genellikle azaldığını göstermiştir. Mikrofiltrasyonda kullanılacak membranlar amaca yönelik olarak seçilmektedir. Gözenek çapı 1,4 Âµm olan membranların pastörizasyon etkisine, 0,2 Âµm gözenek çapına sahip membranların ise sterilizasyon etkisine sahip olduğu bilinmektedir. Bu nedenle uygun membran seçimi mikrofiltrasyon uygulaması için oldukça önemlidir. Mikrofiltrasyonun, içme sütlerinde raf ömrünün uzatılması, yüksek sıcaklıklara dayanabilen ve sütte bozulmalara neden olabilecek bakteri sporlarının uzaklaştırılması, sütün doğal bileşenlerine zarar vermeden peynir gibi bazı süt ürünlerine işlenmesi üzerine etkilerini ortaya koymak amacıyla farklı araştırmalar yapılmıştır. Bu çalışmalar, çiğ süt veya diğer süt ürünlerinin üretiminde ısıl işlem uygulanması nedeniyle özellikle çiğ sütten elde edilen peynirlerin tüketilmesi durumunda halk sağlığı açısından risk oluşturan ve gıda zehirlenmelerine neden olabilecek patojen mikroorganizmaların sütün doğal yapısında bir değişiklik yaratmadan uzaklaştırılmasına imkân tanıyan bir teknik hakkında bilgi vermeleri açısından önemlidir.

El bloqueo interescalénico representa el estándar analgésico para cirugía de hombro. No obstante, la incidencia de parálisis hemidiafragmática puede alcanzar 100% de los casos. Nuestra hipótesis es que infusiones con anestésicos locales más diluidos disminuirían la PHD 24 horas postbloqueo. Métodos: Serie prospectiva de pacientes sometidos a cirugía artroscópica electiva de hombro con bloqueo interescalénico continuo. Un bolo de 15 mL de lidocaína 1%-levobupivacaína 0,5% más infusión postoperatoria de levobupivacaína al 0,04% a 8 ml/h más bolos a demanda de 5 mL con intervalo de 20 minutos hasta el alta. La excursión hemidiafragmática se evaluó con ultrasonido con transductor curvo 2-5 MHz en modo M en la región infracostal antes del bloqueo, en la unidad postanestésica y a las 24 h, antes del alta. El outcome primario fue la presencia de parálisis hemidiafragmática 24 horas postbloqueo. Los resultados secundarios incluyeron dolor postoperatorio, total de bolos de rescate, requerimiento de opioides postoperatorios y efectos secundarios. Resultados: Treinta pacientes fueron reclutados y analizados. La incidencia de PHD a las 24 h fue 96,7%. La mediana [RIC] de dolor en reposo (pacientes con inmovilizador de hombro) medido en escala numérica de 0 a 10, a las 0,5; 1; 3; 6; 12; 24; 48; 72 horas fueron 0 [0-0]; 0 [0-0]; 0 [0-0]; 0 [0-0]; 0 [0-0]; 0 [0-2]; 0 [0-2.5]; 0 [0-2] respectivamente. La mediana [RIC] de consumo de bolos de rescate fue 1,5 [0-7]. No hubo pacientes con requerimientos de morfina postoperatoria. El efecto colateral más frecuente fue el síndrome de Horner. Conclusiones: El bloqueo interescalénico continuo con levobupivacaína 0,04% proporciona analgesia postoperatoria adecuada, pero no evita la PHD a las 24 h en las condiciones de esta serie.

Published: September 2020

Objectives:

There are similarities in the presentation of influenza-A infection, malaria, and typhoid fever which include their overlapping clinical symptoms such as fever and myalgia. Coinfection may be easily missed and may lead to more severe associated morbidity. This study, therefore, investigated the prevalence of coinfection of influenza A, malaria, and typhoid fever in children in four locations in Lagos and determined their age, gender, and location-related prevalence.

Materials and Methods:

A cross-sectional hospital-based study was conducted between March and October 2018. Children less than 15 years attending four health centers in Festac, Amuwo, Ojo, and Shibiri were recruited consecutively. Demographic and epidemiological data were obtained using structured questionnaires, to ascertain children with influenza-like symptoms. Their blood samples were then tested with rapid diagnostic method for malaria and typhoid fever. The children were further screened for influenza-A-specific IgM using ELISA method. Descriptive statistics were reported while p-values were determined for comparable parameters using Chi-square.

Results:

There were 364 children aged <1–14 years including 207 (56.9%) males. Of the 364 children tested, 76/364 (20.9%) were seropositive for influenza-A virus out of which 47/76 (61.8%) had malaria parasitemia, 42/76 (55.3%) had typhoid fever, and 21/76 (27.6%) were coinfected with both malaria parasites and Salmonella enteric Typhi. Children coinfected with influenza-A and malaria were found with a higher frequency of chest pain and cold/chill symptom respectively compared to children having influenza alone (P = 0.0001). Seropositivity for influenza was recorded in all the months studied with the month of March recording the highest influenza-A seropositivity of 20/76 (26.3%) (P = 0.02).

Conclusion:

This study detected 27.6% trio coinfection seroprevalence of influenza Type-A, malaria, and typhoid fever among children population. The finding is unique being the first of such report, to the best of our knowledge. Children coinfected with influenza-A and malaria had greater morbidity.
Synthesis of Polyaniline-Cellulose Conductive Composites with Modified Initial Treatment of Cellulose
Authors: Sitorus Berlian , Hidayat Ferdinand , Suendo Veinardi
Published: September 2020

Conductive polymers are polymers that can conduct electric current because they have conjugated double bonds. Polyaniline is one example of conductive polymers with advantages such as high conductivity, excellent environmental stability, and easy to be synthesized. Nevertheless, polyaniline still has disadvantages such as rigid physical properties that can limit its usage application. Some studies state that stiffness can be overcome by forming composites. Cellulose has been used as a matrix in making polyaniline composites because of its flexible nature. In this study, the synthesis of PANI-cellulose composites was carried out with five different treatment variations, including swelling pretreatment and without swelling pretreatment, reaction through sonication, and without sonication. This treatment difference aims to examine the effect of swelling and sonication processes on composite properties analyzed through peaks appear in Fourier Transformation Infrared spectrometry, conductivity using Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy, as well as differences in the diffractogram of X-Ray Diffraction. In addition to the variations in the initial treatment, variations in the mass of the aniline were also used. The aim is to determine the optimum amount of aniline used to obtain a composite with the highest conductivity value. Inserting aniline to cellulose to synthesis PANI-cellulose composites affected the absorption peaks at wave numbers that identify C-N bonds in PANI-cellulose composites. Also, there are typical peaks of C-N indicated the formation of hydrogen bonds in the composite between PANI and cellulose. Analysis with EIS shows that composite C with an aniline concentration of 2.0 g/L has the highest conductivity, which is 4.77 x 10-6 S/cm. The diffractograms show the formation of organic compounds on PANI-cellulose composites, marked by the peak intensity and widen diffraction patterns.

Authors: Nugroho Bintoro Siswo , Pebrianto Yoga , Faryuni Irfana Diah , Asri Asifa
Published: September 2020

This study examines the effect of nanosilica addition to the physical and mechanical properties of sugar palm fibers (SPFs) reinforced cement composite concrete. The composite concrete ingredients are SPFs as the filler, cement and nano-silica as the matrix, CaCl2 as the catalyst, and water. Testing and fabrication of the composite concrete were performed according to the standard of ASTM C 1185 and ASTM C 1186. The results obtained show that, in general, the addition of nanosilica improves the quality of the composite concrete. A positive effect is attained by adding nanosilica to its optimum amount. The excessive addition of nanosilica reduces the quality of the composite. The composite's mechanical property that is negatively affected by the addition of the nanosilica is the elasticity, in which more nanosilica added stiffer the composite.

THE SEARCH FOR A GEOMETRIC FORM OF DANCE ON THE SCALE OF THE STAGE SPACE
Authors: T.V. Portnova
Published: September 2020

The article reveals the problems of dance geometry, which stand on the verge of choreographic directing and artistic scenography. The search for a geometric form of dance is always in direct connection with the stage space, which has to be solved anew every time in the performance. Taking into account the geometric features of the stage space and perspective spatial structures, the author refers to the functioning of dance in it, using various examples from ballet performances showing the methods of its development. The most characteristic techniques of compositional organization of dance in the geometric and spatial structure of the stage - box, which is traditional until today, are revealed. The lexical component of choreography, which takes part in the spatial determinacy of the ballet performance, is analyzed. Based on specific staged solutions, ballet miseencenes are analyzed, creating their own spatial-bodily geometry, falling into the stream of the viewer's attention. The author also examines modern choreographic practices focused on the avant-garde directions and media environment, which creates new choreography and a new visual space. It is concluded that the geometry of the dance is a dynamic system of non-verbal communication, the unit of which is an image fixed in the movements of the human body, given by the parameters of the stage. The methodological basis for creating a spatial composition on a stage tablet is staged directing, which forms the necessary visual impression. The development of the spatial language of classical dance is based on the choreographer's personal ideas about the movements in a particular fragment, where each element is endowed with its own logic and system of geometric construction.

The main purpose of the presented work is a cultural and historical analysis of the evolution of the cul-tural development of medieval Livonia on the example of monuments of defense architecture. The task is to conduct an art analysis of the existing variety of architectural forms of medieval castle complexes of the 13th and 16th centuries, located in different regions of Latvia and Estonia, which have undergone expansion by the feudal Germany, Denmark and Sweden. Creation of architectural and historical clas-sification of castle forms that were in the regions of the medieval Livonian Order of State in the Baltics. As a result of the analysis, the author summarized the historical diversity of the existing architectural and artistic forms of feudal castles of medieval Latvia and Estonia. The common and special in the ar-chitectural forms of castles on the basis of the introduction to this north-eastern region of Europe bor-rowed customs of European castle-building and architectural traditions of the monastic order of the Cistercians of Burgundy has been revealed. It is determined that the castle of the Order of Livon, the fortified residence of medieval bishops in Livonia and Estland, privately owned castles was a whole space, synthesized in the natural environment, social order, system world understanding of the knights-monks of the Order of Livon, which was directly reflected in the architectural forms of castle complexes of the 13th - 16th centuries. taking into account the existing pan-European and local architectural, de-fense and cultural differences. The study makes a significant contribution to the theory and history of art. A new scientific direction has been developed - the history and typology of the castle architecture of medieval Latvia and Estonia.

Published: September 2020

Cutaneous metastases of visceral neoplasms are rare conditions, and urothelial or transitional cell carcinomas are responsible for less than 1% of cases. We report the case of a 50-year-old male patient who progressively developed multiple cutaneous nodules on his head, abdomen, axilla, and groin, some with ulceration. Skin biopsy and immunohistochemistry were consistent with cutaneous metastasis of urothelial carcinoma. Computed tomography scan revealed generalized metastasis in internal organs. In this rare case, cutaneous metastases were the presenting sign of the disease and, as reported, a sign of bad prognosis.

Authors: Relvas Maria , Morgado Francisca , Oliveira Hugo , Gonçalo Margarida
Published: September 2020

As reações de fotossensibilidade caracterizam-se por uma resposta alterada à radiação não-ionizante, apresentando diversos padrões morfológicos, que refletem as suas diferentes etiologias. Relatamos o caso de um doente observado por dermatose fotossensível refratária a múltiplos tratamentos. Excluídas possíveis causas exógenas e após demonstração de uma dose de eritema mínimo diminuída para UVB, o estudo analítico com vista a iniciar azatioprina revelou serologia positiva para VIH, revelando elevada carga viral e contagens TCD4+ reduzidas. Neste seguimento, iniciou de imediato terapêutica anti-retroviral, com resolução rápida e completa do quadro. Estima-se que 5% dos doentes VIH-positivos apresentem fotossensibilidade em algum momento da sua evolução. Mais frequentemente associada a fármacos utilizados no tratamento, a sensibilidade à luz solar tem também sido ocasionalmente descrita como manifestação inicial da infeção, como no presente caso. Os autores pretendem alertar para a associação entre fotossensibilidade e infeção por VIH que, embora tenha vindo a ser crescentemente reconhecida, está ainda pouco caracterizada.

Authors: Mendes-Bastos Pedro , Benhadou Farida , Ferreira Paulo , Brasileiro Ana
Published: September 2020

Introduction: Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic dermatosis with a large impact in patients’ quality of life and an estimated 7-year delay in diagnosis. The General Practitioner (GP) is usually the first doctor to assist the HS patient. The primary objective of this study is to describe the knowledge and clinical approach of HS by GPs.
Material and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted, based on the GPs answers to a questionnaire designed to evaluate their knowledge on HS.
Results: One hundred eighty seven questionnaires were considered valid for inclusion in the study. The majority (97.3%) of GPs correctly identified HS as the most likely diagnosis when confronted with a typical clinical history of the disease, and 84.5% associated HS with chronicity. The majority (84.0%) of GPs refers these patients, mostly to Dermatology (89.3%). The majority of GPs also considered that a surgical approach may not be curative (94.1%) and 15.0% considered that biological agents might be indicated. We compared the answers of 2 groups: group A, n=100, with <5 years of clinical practice and group B, n=84, with ≥5 years. Group A associated more HS with tobacco use and obesity than group B (p=0.013 and p=0.006, respectively). A multidisciplinary approach was also more frequently selected by group A (p=0.004).
Conclusion: This pilot study shows that the view of Portuguese GPs about HS can be improved. There are significant differences concerning knowledge on HS between GPs with less than 5 years of clinical practice and the more experienced ones. This study can help to direct differential future educational actions.

Published: September 2020

We report a case of a 84-year-old male hospitalized for bacterial pneumonia who, during hospitalization, developed a flexural exanthema in parallel with a positive swab for SARS-CoV-2. Supportive therapy was instituted, the rash disappeared in 7 days and the patient fully recovered. At the same time, two other cases of SARS-CoV-2 infection occurred in the same ward. Histopathology and immunohistochemistry of a skin biopsy showed a scarce predominantly perivascular lymphocytic infiltration in the upper dermis, predominantly by CD4+ T cells, a slight epidermotropism, spongiosis and focal parakeratosis, compatible with a viral exanthema or a maculopapular drug eruption. Patch testing with possible culprit drugs were negative. We seek to add value in understanding all the manifestations of SARS-CoV-2 infection and to draw attention to the importance of early identification of skin manifestations in association with COVID-19.

Authors: Sahoo Pratap Chandra , Mohapatra Rajendra , Kumar Swain Anil
Published: September 2020

Agriculture sector is the prime mover of state economy of Odisha. It drives the state economy towards the inclusive and sustainable development. Odisha is one of the states in which risk in crop production is very high due to variability in rain fall, low resources base of farmer, frequency occurrence of natural calamities etc. In such a risky environment of the state there is a greater need for crop insurance in the event of crop failure, the insured farmer will receive indemnity to cover their loss. This article examines the effect of premium and premium subsidy on farmers’ coverage in crop insurance in Odisha by using Log linear model to measure the effect of premium and premium subsidy on the farmers coverage. We have analysed the data with the help of eview and do the residual test and found that the model is suitable for the study. Our empirical results shows that there is significant effect of premium and premium subsidy on farmers coverage under crop insurance both kharif and rabi season.
