Background: The use of high-sensitive cardiac troponin T (hsTnT) in urine as a marker of cardiac damage in children has not yet been reported. Elimination of cardiac troponins is dependent on renal function; persistently increased serum hsTnT concentrations were observed among individuals with impaired renal function. The aim of this study was to investigate serum and urine hsTnT levels and its correlation in infants and children younger than 24 months of age after cardiac surgery. Methods: This study was conducted on 90 infants and children under 24 months of age who were divided into three groups. The experimental group consisted of patients with intracardiac surgery of ventricular septal defect (VSD), first control group consisted of infants with extracardiac formation of bidirectional cavopulmonary connection (BCPC), and the second control group consisted of healthy children. Troponin T values ​​were determined in serum and urine at five time points: the first sample was taken on the day before cardiac surgery (measure 0) and the other four samples were taken after the surgery; immediately after (measure 1), on the first (measure 2), third (measure 3), and fifth postoperative day (measure 5). The first morning urine was sampled for determining the troponin T in the control group of healthy infants. Results: A positive correlation between troponin T values in serum and urine was found. Urine hsTnT measured preoperatively in children undergoing BCPC surgery was higher (median 7.3 [IQR 6.6–13.3] ng/L) compared to children undergoing VSD surgery (median 6.5 [IQR 4.4–8.9] ng/L) as well as to healthy population (median 5.5 [IQR 5.1–6.7] ng/L). After logarithmic transformation, there was no statistically significant difference in urine hsTnT concentration between the groups at any point of measurement preoperatively or postoperatively. Statistically significant negative correlation was found between serum and urine hsTnT concentrations and glomerular filtration rate estimated by creatinine clearance. Patients who underwent surgical repair of VSD had significantly higher concentrations of troponin T in serum on the first three postoperative measurements compared to those who had BCPC surgery. Conclusions: According to the results of this study, renal function after cardiac surgery appears to have a major effect on the urinary hsTnT concentrations, and we cannot conclude that this is an appropriate marker for the assessment of postoperative myocardial damage in children. Nevertheless, more research is needed to reach a better understanding of the final elimination of cardiac troponins in children.

Published: May 2023

Chemotherapies have changed the prognosis of patients affected by cancer over the last 20 years, with a significant increase in survival rates. However, they can cause serious adverse effects that may limit their use. In particular, anthracyclines, widely used to treat both hematologic cancers and solid cancers, may cause cardiac toxicity, leading to the development of heart failure in some cases. This review aims to explore current evidence with regards to anthracyclines’ cardiotoxicity, with particular focus on the classifications and underlying molecular mechanisms, in order to provide an overview on the current methods of its diagnosis, treatment, and prevention. An attentive approach and a prompt management of patients undergoing treatment with anthracyclines is imperative to avoid preventable antineoplastic drug discontinuation and is conducive to improving both short-term and long-term cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.
Physiological and Pathological Considerations for the Use of Flaxseed as a Therapeutic Dietary Strategy

Published: May 2023

The inclusion of flaxseed in the diet may have a great number of potential benefits for the well-being of both healthy individuals and those challenged by disease conditions as well. With an increase in the number and quality of studies focused on the physiological and pathophysiological effects of dietary flaxseed, our knowledge concerning the rationale for the inclusion of flaxseed in our diet has become more convincing and stronger. The purpose of this review is threefold. First, the review will comprehensively document the evidence supporting the value of dietary flaxseed to improve bodily health in both normal and disease conditions. Second, this review will identify the mechanisms of action responsible for these effects. Finally, this article will review practical aspects relevant to the inclusion of flaxseed in the diet. Briefly, supplementing the diet with flaxseed has beneficial effects on the treatment and/or prevention of different kinds of cardiovascular disease (hypertension, ischemic heart disease, myocardial infarcts, atherosclerosis), non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, breast cancer, bone strength, menopause, diabetes, and wound healing. Although some controversy exists on the component within flaxseed that provides these beneficial actions, it is likely that the rich content of the omega-3 fatty acid, alpha linolenic acid, is primarily responsible for the majority of these biological effects. It is concluded that the constantly expanding evidence in support of the inclusion of flaxseed in our daily diet to provide significant health benefits strongly encourages the initiation of additional work on dietary flaxseed in order to both confirm past findings as well as to further advance our knowledge regarding the important biological actions of dietary flaxseed.

“Athlete’s heart” is a spectrum of morphological, functional, and regulatory changes that occur in people who practice regular and long-term intense physical activity. The morphological characteristics of the athlete’s heart may overlap with some structural and electrical cardiac diseases that may predispose to sudden cardiac death, including inherited and acquired cardiomyopathies, aortopathies and channelopathies. Overdiagnosis should be avoided, while an early identification of underlying cardiac life-threatening disorders is essential to reduce the potential for sudden cardiac death. A step-by-step multimodality approach, including a first-line evaluation with personal and family history, clinical evaluation, 12-lead resting electrocardiography (ECG), followed by second and third-line investigations, as appropriate, including exercise testing, resting and exercise echocardiography, 24-hour ECG Holter monitoring, cardiac magnetic resonance, computed tomography, nuclear scintigraphy, or genetic testing, can be determinant to differentiate between extreme physiology adaptations and cardiac pathology. In this context, cardiovascular imaging plays a key role in detecting structural abnormalities in athletes who fall into the grey zone between physiological adaptations and a covert or early phenotype of cardiovascular disease.

Published: May 2023

Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is one of the leading causes of cardiovascular death in general population. SCD primary prevention requires the correct selection of patients at increased risk who may benefit from implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD). Despite several non-invasive arrhythmic risk indexes are available, their ability to stratify the SCD risk among asymptomatic patients with cardiac disease at increased arrhythmic risk is debated. The programmed ventricular stimulation (PVS) is an invasive approach historically used for SCD risk stratification in patients with acquired or inherited cardiac disease and is currently included in international guidelines. Aim of this review is to summarize all available data about the role of PVS for the SCD risk stratification in different clinical settings.

CHEMICAL REACTIONS IN HIGH- TEMPERATURE WATER USING MATHEMATICS AND PHYSICS CONCEPTS
Authors: kABEY DELPHIN
Published: May 2023

A mathematical model for the primary chemical process occurring in 1 J/pulse electrical discharge in water has been developed. The discharge channel is divided into two zones: The core and recombination region. The core is a very narrow (ca 10 μm) part of the channel where high temperature initiation reaction take place and where the majority of molecule hydrogen and 47 % of the molecular oxygen are formed. The recombination region is a 200 μm radius zone where additional reactions such as hydrogen peroxide formation take place. The temperature in the core ranged from 5000 K at the centre to 2000 K at the boundary and the pressure. The only adjustable parameter in the system was found to be 14 atm. The model describes for the first time how molecular oxygen is formed in an underwater discharge and it is also able to described the experimental observed stoichiometry of H2, O2 and H2O2 formation. The concentration and temperature profiles inside the discharge channel as well as a general scheme for the water dissociation and molecular species formation are also reported. There have been few studies in the literature that closely examined the different potential influences of High temperature – water (HTW) on chemical reactions. Although the existing reviews and overviews of reactions in aqueous media include some discussion of solvent effects, in none of these reviews is the focal point the role of the reaction medium. This previous treatment of this topic is neither complete nor critical.

The Future in Anthropocene Science
Authors: Keys Patrick , Warrier Rekha , Badia Lynn
Published: May 2023

The Anthropocene is the present time of human-caused accelerating global change, and new forms of Anthropocene risk are emerging that society has hitherto never experienced. Science and policy are grappling with the temporal and spatial magnitude of these changes, as well as the diminishing margin between science and policy itself. However, there is a gap in the transparency — and perhaps even in the awareness — of the profound role that Anthropocene science plays in shaping the structure and possibility of our future world. In this work, we explore three broad categories of Anthropocene science, including international energy scenarios, climate change projections, and the possibility of social collapse. These cases exemplify three key features of Anthropocene science: worlding capacity, values shaping what is possible, and refusal to consider all options. We discuss how Anthropocene science modulates new risks and systematically, though perhaps inadvertently, entrains certain social-ecological futures. We find that clarity in these three attributes of Anthropocene science could enhance its integrity and build trust, not least in the arena of public policy. We conclude with recommendations for improving the interpretability and scope of Anthropocene science in the context of a growing urgency for accurate information to inform our collective future.

У статті проаналізовано деякі аспекти гуманістичного підходу як чинника соціального і духовного розвитку майбутніх учителів. Доведено, що гуманістичний підхід до підготовки вчителя початкової школи ставить за мету формування соціального вчителя-партнера, покликаного не просто насичувати програму різноманітним змістом, а допомагати учневі засвоювати її. Акцентовано увагу на включенні гуманістичного підходу в систему концептуальних засад соціального, професійного і духовного розвитку особистості майбутніх учителів, оскільки це не тільки школа продуктивного мислення, а й школа розвиненої культури, ключовими складниками якої є діяльність індивіда, його поведінка та спілкування – якість, дефіцит якої гостро відчуваємо наразі в усіх сферах життя.

This study is motivated by the assumption that the personal qualities of counselors are essential to be studied because the effectiveness of counseling services is also influenced by the subjective views of clients towards counselors as professionals who are asked to help them. In addition, there are different views on the personal profile of an effective counselor from the side of service users, which include principals, subject teachers, administrative staff, students, and parents, as well as the guidance and counseling professional community regarding how the counselor's figure is considered effective to provide counseling services to them. This study aims to determine the views and expectations of service users and professional colleagues regarding the personal profile of effective counselors. The method used was descriptive quantitative research. The results showed that effective counselors must display good personal identity through integrity, emotional stability, and psychological maturity in providing guidance and counseling services. This has implications for the performance of counselors in serving clients who must demonstrate self-management and integrity to gain more trust in the community.

Published: May 2023

Study Design: Retrospective cohort study.Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical and radiological outcomes of nonfusion anterior scoliosis correction (NFASC) in patients with idiopathic scoliosis and comprehensively analyze its principles.Overview of Literature: NFASC is a novel revolutionary motion-preserving surgery for idiopathic scoliosis. However, clinical data related to this procedure remain scarce, with no conclusive guidelines regarding case indications, proper technique, and possible complications.Methods: This study included patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) who were treated with NFASC for a structural major curve (Cobb angle, 40°–80°) with more than 50% flexibility on dynamic X-rays. The mean follow-up was 26±12.2 months (range, 12– 60 months). Clinical and radiological data such as skeletal maturity, curve type, Cobb angle, surgery details, and Scoliosis Research Society-22 revised (SRS-22r) questionnaire were collected. Statistically significant trends were examined by post hoc analysis following repeated measures analysis of variance test.Results: A total of 75 patients (70 females, five males) were included, with a mean age of 14.96±2.69 years. The mean Risser and Sanders scores were 4.22±0.7 and 7.15±0.74, respectively. The mean main thoracic Cobb angles at the first and second follow-up (17.2°±5.36° and 16.92°±5.06°, respectively) were significantly lower than the preoperative Cobb angles (52.11°±7.74°) (p <0.05). Similarly, the mean thoracolumbar/lumbar Cobb angle significantly improved from the preoperative period (51.45°±11.26°) to the first follow-up (13.48°±5.11°) and last follow-up (14.24°±4.85°) (p <0.05). The mean preoperative and postoperative SRS-22r scores were 78.0±3.2 and 92.5±3.1, respectively (p <0.05). None of the patients had any complications until the most recent follow-up.Conclusions: NFASC offers promising curve correction and curve progression stabilization in patients with AIS, with a low risk for complications and preservation of spinal mobility and sagittal parameters. Thus, it proves to be a favorable alternative to fusion modality.

Building on ethnographic fieldwork in Buenos Aires, this article explores the social infrastructure created by Senegalese migrants, which channels newcomers into the cities’ prolific economy of street vending. The article focuses on the often invisible social infrastructure that emerges when people either do not have access to, or are excluded from, formal infrastructures created by the state, city governments, or NGOs. The article highlights how established migrants shape newly arrived migrants’ navigation and access to opportunities in the city to help reproduce life along a migration trajectory that fulfils social expectations in Senegal. However, this process also involves friction and new social alliances, especially when certain roles and expectations become contested.

Buleleng merupakan kabupaten penghasil kopi Robusta kedua terbesar di Bali. Data BPS tahun 2018-2020 menunjukkan jumlah produksi kopi Robusta di Buleleng berkisar antara 4000-5000 ton per tahun. Desa Pucaksari merupakan salah satu desa penghasil kopi Robusta di Buleleng. Jumlah produksi kopi yang potensial secara agregat pada faktanya tidak diimbangi dengan kesempatan desa Pucaksari memperoleh program pelatihan pengolahan kopi. Pertumbuhan produksi kopi Robusta di desa Pucaksari Buleleng belum sepenuhnya didukung oleh program pelatihan yang mencukupi. Hal ini dapat terlihat dari kurangnya edukasi ke pekebun tentang metode pasca panen kopi. Kopi Robusta belum mendapatkan metode treatment kopi yang baik. Pekebun kopi, sebagian besar memanfaatkan cara pemrosesan kopi pasca panen yang masih tradisional, yaitu dengan menggunakan metode dry processing. Metode ini dilakukan dengan mengeringkan kopi Robusta di bawah sinar matahari langsung. Metode dry processing, apabila tidak didukung oleh sarana dan prasarana yang baik dapat berakibat pada defect/cacat produk kopi. Pekebun kopi apabila tidak mendapatkan edukasi dan training yang tepat akan mengakibatkan menurunnya kualitas citarasa kopi yang berujung pada rendahnya harga kopi Robusta di pasaran. Dalam hal ini, peran perguruan tinggi vokasi sangat dibutuhkan dalam membantu membangun masyarakat melalui program pelatihan yang diberikan. Program pelatihan ini memberikan keuntungan kepada pekebun kopi melalui outcome inovasi pada proses kopi. Adapun program yang diberikan dalam bentuk edukasi dan pelatihan implementasi post harvest management. Program ini telah berhasil meningkatkan pengetahuan dan skill 15 petani tentang pengolahan pasca panen kopi dan peningkatan kualitas cita rasa kopi Robusta dengan skor 84 yang termasuk dalam kategori kopi excellent/fine robusta.

O Acordo de Paris e o Estado democrático de direito: uma investigação sobre a base estatal para a qual o Acordo aponta
Authors: Diniz do Couto Leonardo , Albuquerque Daniel kaique Oliveira de
Published: May 2023

Este trabalho objetiva apresentar o desenho de Estado para o qual aponta e do qual necessita o Acordo de Paris para a efetiva implementação de suas metas. Trata-se de uma derivação normativa a partir de investigação em bibliografia especializada sobre tal Acordo e sobre o Estado democrático de direito. Ao considerar seriamente o fato de que as metas de combate às mudanças climáticas deste Acordo se vinculam não só à adoção de um desenvolvimento sustentável, mas também à adoção de uma compreensão de justiça comprometida com a erradicação da pobreza e a igualdade de gênero, a conclusão deste trabalho aponta para uma configuração estatal que extrapola o requerido numa democracia liberal. O Acordo de Paris põe no âmbito da política mais do que as questões típicas do fórum público. Ele vincula profundamente a defesa da liberdade e da igualdade com uma preocupação ambiental e econômica. Mostra-se preciso portanto extrapolar o mencionado Estado e engajando-o na construção de um bem comum.
O governo da potência e a introdução do dever na ética: a herança teológica da modernidade segundo Giorgio Agamben
Authors: Paz Caio
Published: May 2023

Este artigo se propõe apresentar o diagnóstico do filósofo italiano Giorgio Agamben segundo o qual o governo da potência e a introdução do dever na ética são heranças teológicas secularizadas. Nesse sentido, as proposições que ele faz sobre a ética estão relacionadas às noções de potência e ingovernável. Na verdade, segundo a sua perspectiva, as diferentes doutrinas que receberam o título de ética ofuscaram aquilo que, para ele, a caracteriza enquanto tal. Se, agambenianamente, a ética se desenvolve no âmbito da potência, o governo desta pelos dispositivos teológicos secularizados conduziram a um esfacelamento da experiência ética na modernidade. A fim de reconduzi-la à sua morada habitual, a potência, o filósofo italiano propõe um abandono da noção de governo e evoca a noção de ingovernável.
Um imaginário da termodinâmica
Authors: Delon Michel
Published: May 2023

Trata-se de expor a hipótese segundo a qual a máquina a vapor e a termodinâmica fornecem, das Luzes ao Romantismo, uma metáfora e um modelo epistemológico. Esse modelo pode ser definido por um contraste entre dois polos, frio e quente, cujo antagonismo determina um movimento. Denis Diderot pensa o ser humano como um equilíbrio instável entre a recepção das impressões sensoriais, do exterior ao interior, e a tomada de decisão que determina a ação, do interior ao exterior. O ser sensível é caracterizado pela predominância do primeiro movimento, pelas ondas de calor; o ser de razão e de vontade, pela predominância do segundo movimento, pelo resfriamento que produz um trabalho. O grande comediante, segundo Diderot, é esse ser paradoxal que representa a sensibilidade sem dela sentir nenhum efeito. Sobre esse modelo, a sociedade e a natureza são trabalhadas por tensões que produzem um devir, que se constituem em história. Esse conflito pode se situar entre as raças, entre as nações, entre as classes. Assim se afirmam, na época, uma estética do sublime e uma lógica dialética.

Definition of Forensic Methodologies for Autonomous Vehicles
Authors: Répás József
Published: May 2023

Digitisation is present more and more widely in the vehicle industry, the use of modern and increasingly self-driving vehicles is appearing more and more widely. Their use becomes more appropriate and necessary in industry, transport, military and logistics applications. The spread of these highly automated vehicles will have a direct impact on road accidents, violations and crimes. In the event of accidents, the determination of responsibility and the identification of the perpetrators of crimes will continue to be necessary in the future, for which tools and procedures are currently not available or not fully applicable. By connecting vehicles and infrastructure elements, the range of data related to events has been greatly enhanced. This information must be extracted and analysed during the investigations. The purpose of the investigations is to determine what, when, where and how it happened, who were involved, and to determine responsibility.
The basis of the expert investigation of self-driving vehicles and cooperative transport systems is the classical forensic procedure and digital forensics. On the other hand, the field requires specific knowledge, preparation, specific tools and approach. In this study, the existing, already used digital forensics examination methods are described,the applicability of some of them, some steps or tools that require further examination in the case of modern and increasingly autonomous vehicles.
Tell Hesban and Vicinity in the Iron Age
Authors:   ,   Andrews University, Ray Paul
Published: May 2023

Problem. Tell Hesban is a major archaeological ruin in central Transjordan. It was excavated from 1968-76 by Andrews University. However, almost 25 years after the termination of this endeavor, a final report dealing with the Iron Age remains has not yet appeared. Although relatively little remains from the Iron Age, which is the earliest period represented on the tell, an understanding of what is left is nevertheless important for comprehending the role the site played in the region at this time. Method. A historical research design has been used in this study. The excavated architectural and soil/debris layers were analyzed in order to isolate distinct strata. Their exact temporal parameters were arrived at by a comparison of representative samples of the ceramic remains gathered on the tell with those of the wider region. A reconstruction of the everyday life of the inhabitants of the tell and its environs was made by the integration of the available lines of evidence, some of which were obtained from the research of the scientific specialists, who participated in this multi-disciplinary effort. In addition, a study of the evolution of the excavation methodology was undertaken in order to understand the unique niche of the Heshbon Expedition within the development of "Processual Archaeology". Conclusions. Six strata were isolated. The first and third settlements (strata 21 and 19) of Iron Age I Hesban appear to have been small unfortified Reubenite villages, while Stratum 20 seems to have been a large fortified village. These villages appear to have relied upon a medium intensity food production regime of mixed agro-pastoralism, dependent on cereal cultivation and animal products. Cottage industries played a major role among the economic activities. Stratum 18 became a small town with a high intensity food production regime extending its repertoire into olive, fruit, and wine production. During Iron Age II, the site seems first to have been severely reduced in size as it became a Moabite squatter settlement of pastoralists (Stratum 17), and then to have blossomed under the Ammonites (Stratum 16) into a small, but prosperous town based on a market economy.
An Assessment of the Perceived Administrative Effectiveness of Boarding School Principals in the North American Division of the Seventh-day Adventist Church
Authors:   ,   Andrews University, Hutchinson Malcolm
Published: May 2023

Purpose. The purpose of this study was to examine the views held by those whose duties include the management and day-to-day operations of the secondary boarding schools within the North American Division of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. This refers specifically to superintendents, principals, and staff members Method. The survey method was used to gather the data. Respondents were asked to complete an 84-item questionnaire. The population sample was made up of 320 staff members, 32 principals, and 31 superintendents. The data were analyzed using mean scores, percentile rankings, and ANOVA at an alpha of p < .05. Findings. The major findings in the study were: (1) Principals of Adventist boarding schools are highly effective in managing the day-to-day activities involved in school operation (maintenance construct) and orchestrating all the multifaceted tasks and elements needed to make a long-range school program successful (integration construct). (2) Principals of Adventist boarding schools are only moderately effective in instructional leadership (adaptation construct) and in defining objectives and mobilizing adequate resources (goal attainment construct). (3) When compared to a national norm, principals of Adventist boarding schoolsare perceived as having higher levels of effectiveness than their public school counterparts. This is especially true of staff members' perceptions. (4) Adventist personnel are quite homogenous in their perceptions of the effectiveness of boarding school principals. There are only minimal differences based on demographic variables.
