Optimization of an Input Filter for a Three-Phase Matrix Converter
Authors: BOZTAŞ Güllü
Published: August 2020

This study includes an optimization of the input filter for three-phase matrix converters. An input filter effects on the power factor while improving the Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) of the input current. Unity power factor being one of the most important advantages of matrix converters will be eliminated if this is not taken into consideration. For this reason, an optimization was used by taking both parameters into consideration in this study. A Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm was used in order to reduce the THD of the input current about 3% with nearly unit power factor as 0.985. The first of the optimization objective functions is to decrease the THD of the input current, and the second is to increase the power factor. The matrix converter was used for a constant frequency and modulation by using the switching strategy of Venturini Method and feeds an RL load. The optimized input filter was analyzed in detail in MATLAB/SimPowerSystems environment and examined in the results. Additionally, FFT spectra of the input and output waveforms are given in the results. Thus, the most suitable input filter was obtained for this system.

Aim: to evaluate the quality of life parameters dynamics in patients with vulvar cancer I and II stages during postoperative rehabilitation.

Materials and Methods. A prospective comparative randomized study included 47 women with vulvar cancer I–II stages, aged 38 to 70 years, with an average age of 56.3 ± 3.9 years. Patients were randomized into 2 groups: 24 of them underwent postoperative rehabilitation and 23 were included in the comparison group. Quality of life and sexual function, as well as psycho-emotional state were assessed using a set of questionnaires: quality of life of the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) QLQ-C30, Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-General (FACT-G) with an extension for vulvar cancer, Female Sexuality Index (FSFI) and WAM (well-being, activity, mood).

Results. Patient who receiving postoperative rehabilitation even during the first three months, a reliable positive dynamics of all parameters of FSFI and EORTC, except cognitive function, was noted. At the same time, in the patients not undergoing postoperative rehabilitation program there was no reliable difference in the results of the questionnaires, except for FSFI, but the severity of changes was significantly less than in the patients of the research group. Dynamics in the EORTC parameters in women in postoperative rehabilitation averaged 14.8 points with 7.8 points in the comparison group. In the FACT-G questionnaire, the dynamics were even more pronounced with 19.9 and 6.8 points respectively. There was a reliable positive trend in improving the quality of sexual life and a decrease in the percentage of women suffer from pain and discomfort during sexual intercourse: from 25,0 % (n = 6) to 4,2 % (n = 1) in the study group and from 21,7 % (n = 5) to 13,0 % (n = 3) in the comparison group. Improvement in sexual desire and satisfaction during the year was noted in 5 (20.8 %) women in the study group and only 2 (8.7 %) in the comparison group.

Conclusion. The developed program of postoperative rehabilitation of patients with vulvar cancer, which includes individual and group psychotherapy, "anti-cancer diet therapy", dosed physical activity, dynamic correction of vaginal biocoenosis showed high efficiency already during the first 6 months. All patients with vulvar cancer in the postoperative period should receive active rehabilitation aimed at correction of psycho-emotional state and sexual function, which will improve the quality of life and improve further prognosis.

Published: August 2020

The goal of this examine is to model the age-time established prevalence of hepatitis B whilst  estimating the impact of vaccination. While stochastic models/time series have been used before to version hepatitis B cases in the absence of know-how on the wide variety of susceptible, this paper proposes to apply a way that fits into the generalized additive version framework. Generalized additive models with penalized regression splines are used to make the most the    underlying continuity of each age and time in a bendy nonparametric way. Primarily based on a unique case notification dataset, it's far proven that the implemented immunization programme in Bangladesh ended in a huge lower in incidence for babies in their first year of existence with 82% (79%-84%). Moreover, its miles proved that conditional on an assumed baseline susceptibility percent; a clean force of infection profile can be received from which two local maxima had been determined at ages 9 and 24.

« Ne croyez pas ce que je viens de vous dire » Maximes et essayistes fictifs contre la pensée dogmatique
Authors: Lacroix Michel
Published: August 2020

Rarement utilisées jusque-là dans la littérature québécoise, les formes brèves aphoristiques sont explorées par plusieurs écrivains, à la fin des années trente et au début des années quarante. Entre « maximes et papillotages », réflexion intemporelle, bons mots et confession sentimentale, ce corpus hétéroclite met en évidence une commune tendance au morcellement, à la discontinuité, en même temps qu’une volonté de savoir passant par le travail de la phrase. Ce faisant, ce corpus s’écrit en marge ou à rebours des doctrines, manifestant à la fois l’aspiration à l’autonomie littéraire et l’affirmation de la subjectivité amoureuse.

NATIONAL OR LOCAL POLITICAL PARTIES: THE DYNAMICS OF POLITICAL OPTIONS IN 2019 GENERAL ELECTIONS IN ACEH PROVINCE
Authors: Harahap Husnul Isa
Published: August 2020

Purpose of the study: The objective of the study was to describe the distribution of votes for local and national political parties in each electoral district in Aceh Province, Indonesia, especially for local parliamentary elections (Aceh DPRD or DPRA).

Methodology: This is a descriptive study with a qualitative approach. Data collection n in this study uses the method of library research and documents (secondary data). Data analysis uses descriptive analysis based on the political behaviour approach.

Main Findings: The main findings of this study indicate that the distribution of votes for political parties in the 2019 elections has spread to both local and national parties. If quantified totally, the national party dominates the votes in each electoral district. But if the votes are described based on each political party, it will look different. There are no political parties that strongly dominate the vote. The existence of political parties that have local character or type has the same effect on voters compared to national parties.

Applications of this study: The theoretical implication of this study was to strengthen Kaare Strom’s theory about political party behavior. The behavior of political parties in elections is to obtain votes.

Novelty/Originality of this study: When national and local political parties compete in general elections, voters do not feel significant differences between the two political parties.

Authors: Ryabtseva A. A. , Grishina E. E. , Andryukhina O. M. , Kovrizhkina A. A. , Andryukhina A. S.
Published: August 2020

Rationale: The emerging new coronavirus infection caused by SARS-CoV-2 has resulted in a pandemic. Its clinical manifestations are highly variable and the death rate is high due to rapid progression to acute respiratory distress syndrome. Identified abnormalities of the eye are mainly related to conjunctival injury during manifestation of the disease.

Aim: To study the eye abnormalities in patients who have undergone COVID-19.

Materials and methods: Ophthalmological examination was performed in 23 patients (6 [26%] men and 17 [74%] women, median age 42.39 years) at days 44 to 85 after manifestation of COVID-19 infection in the Department of Ophthalmology, MONIKI. In addition to the standard ophthalmological examination, all patients were evaluated with optical coherence tomography (OCT), auto fluorescence, contrast and color sensitivity test with different light sources, and tear production assessment.

Results: In the late convalescence period there were complaints of dry eyes and abnormal color perception, with visual acuity being unchanged. The OCT assessment the peripapillary retina identified small hyper-reflective foci in the inner layers.

Conclusion: Eye disease in patients after COVID-19 is mainly related to the condition of the eye surface, abnormal color perception and abnormal architectonics of the inner retinal layers, which can persist for a long time during convalescence.
Long-Standing Blades of Scissors in Paranasal Sinus Over 40 Years
Authors: Choi Ji-Eun , Kim Hack Jung , Chung Seung-Kyu
Published: August 2020

Foreign bodies in the sinus are rare entities that are often associated with trauma. This paper presents a case of a metallic foreign body that was retained without any symptoms for over 40 years. A skull X-ray and computed tomography scans showed blades of scissors inside the maxillary sinus, extending to the middle meatus without affecting vital structures. The foreign body was successfully removed by an endoscopic approach. There were no complications during and after the surgery. The presence of retained foreign bodies in the maxillofacial region is rarely discussed in previous publications. This manuscript focuses on the asymptomatic period of this foreign body and aims to discuss the necessity and feasibility of a wait-and-see approach in selected cases.
Two Cases of Acute Isolated Sphenoid Sinusitis in Children
Authors: Park Sangwook , Lee Sang Yun , Jeon Yung Jin
Published: August 2020

Acute isolated sphenoid sinusitis is a rare disease, and accounts for less than 3% of all sinusitis, especially in young children. Delayed diagnosis or misdiagnosis can occur frequently due to atypical clinical presentations. This can lead to serious complications because of the involvement of anatomically related intracranial structures. Therefore, nasal endoscopy, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are important diagnostic tools to confirm the diagnosis. We report two cases of a previously healthy 6-year-old girl and a 13-year-old boy, whose chief complaints were uncontrolled headache and high fever over 38°C. Physical examination and initial laboratory test results of blood, urine, and cerebrospinal fluid were normal. The diagnosis was made after a brain MRI revealed isolated sphenoid sinusitis. The girl was treated with third generation cephalosporins intravenously. The boy, however, had to undergo an emergent endoscopic sinus surgery as his headache and eyeball-pain symptoms did not resolve by medical treatment alone. Both cases had good outcomes, without neurological sequelae.
No hay quinto malo
Authors: Escalante Andrés A.
Published: August 2020

El refrán, “no hay quinto malo”, en una tarde de toros, hace referencia al quinto astado, cuya lidia debería prometer una gran faena. Ello, en parte, obedece a que, antiguamente, en las fiestas taurinas españolas eran los propietarios de los toros quienes determinaban el orden de la lidia, dejándose a los mejores ejemplares para el final. Si bien es cierto que, en la actualidad, el orden de la lidia es aleatorio, este refrán sigue vigente en tanto y en cuanto se haga referencia, mediante su uso anchuroso, a que lo mejor de algo puede ocurrir después y no antes.

Authors: Esmaeili Hadi , Malekzadeh Mohammad , Esmaeili Davood , Nikeghbal Farid
Published: August 2020

Aim: The successful anesthesia is an essential factor for dental treatment. This study aimed at determining the effectiveness of local anesthesia and it’s relationship with dental Anxiety. Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out on 256 dental patients, in 2017. Dental Anesthesia was administered after completing the Modified Dental Anxiety Scale by the patients. The level of anesthesia was recorded in one of three states (successful, difficult, and failed). Collected data was analyzed using SPSS version 22 and tests of, Chi-square, independent t-test, analysis of variance, and logistic regression model.  Results: About 60.5% subjects had moderate-severe dental anxiety. The mean of dental anxiety significantly was lower in the successful anesthesia group (P<0.01). Patients with elementary education had a significantly higher level of dental anxiety (P<0.01). Dental anxiety was significantly higher in the age group of ≥59 years, compared to the other age groups, except for 49-58 years (P<0.05). Subjects with a significantly higher level of dental anxiety more delayed their visits to the dentist. The logistic regression model showed that the dental anxiety (high anxiety) and literacy level (elementary) were the most important predictors of failed or difficult anesthesia. Conclusion: Informing patients about dental treatment procedures, regular and periodic visits to the dentist, using psychotherapeutic techniques to reduce dental anxiety before anesthesia, could play an important role in the success of anesthesia.
New Paradigm of Contemporary Hermeneutics: Analysis of Religious Text Discourse Understanding of Paul Ricoeur’s Perspective
Authors: Atabik Ahmad
Published: August 2020

The hermeneutic study about discourse before the existence of Paul Ricoeur was around three points: romantic hermeneutics, onology hermeneutics, and dialectical hermeneutics. They have characteristics that other mainsteams do not have. Ricoeur’s thought style cannot be included in any of those three hermeneutic thoughts. In fact, his thought covers almost all contemporary philosophical topics. One of the points of Ricoeur’s contemporary hermeneutics is how to combine the phenomenology of Husserl’s metaphysical tendencies with Heidegger’s existential phenomenology. The text is essentially autonomous to carry out “de-contextualization” (the process of liberating oneself from context) and “re-contextualization” (the process of returning to context). Ricoeur’s thought patterns cannot be included in one of the three hermeneutic thought. In fact, his thought allegedly covers almost all contemporary philosophical topics. One of Ricoeur’s contemporary hermeneutics is how to combine the phenomenology of Husserl’s metaphysical tendencies with Heidegger’s existential phenomenology.
Elasticity of Understanding of M. Syuhudi Ismail on Hadith About the Threats for Painter
Authors: Rohmansyah Rohmansyah
Published: August 2020

Painting or drawing is a penchant for some humans, especially pictures or paintings that are seen as beautiful as images of humans, animals, plants, and others. However, on the other hand it becomes a problem if the painting is worshiped or cultured. This paper seeks to present the elasticity of the understanding of the hadith of M. Syuhudi Islam concerning threats to painters by using library research and descriptive-analysis approaches from the sociological aspects of knowledge and historical-sociological. The findings show the elasticity of M. Syuhudi Ismail in understanding the hadith of painting. Hadith of painting had been understood temporally and locally which occurred when the hadith was delivered by Rasulullah when the new societies came out of idolatry worshiping idols or statues including animate images so that hadiths appeared on the prohibition of painting or drawing because they feared they would do the same again. According to Syuhudi Ismail, the prohibition was seen from ‘illah al-hukm (legal cause), namely worshiping and culturing paintings or drawings so that in today's context it is permissible for painters to aim not to be worshiped or cultured but to be used as a field of economic endeavors to fulfill everyday life.
Religion in the Conflict Flows
Authors: Syarif Fajar
Published: August 2020

This research analyzes the issue of religion in understanding multiple realities. So it needs to be explained how religion can be one of the triggers of the problem and eventually become tyrants of other religions or beliefs. The problem that is limited in this study is that it relates to religion which is limited to the reality of conflicts that occur, as long as the conflict is published; both through research and through mass media. Furthermore, this research tries to look at the background of the understanding of diversity that occurs in society, so that it can be explained how it exists in interreligious relations in order to be in line. Religious expression among religious followers can influence patterns of integration and conflict. It will increase and become a trigger for conflict when it relates to the factors of economic and political inequality both locally, nationally, and even the constellation that is originally reasonable in the community, then strengthens and becomes clear, especially in society so that conflicts arise. Social integration can be a conflict resolution if maintained through bonds among citizens and social organizations that cross primordial boundaries.
Islam Nusantara as Strategy for Indonesian Nasionalism Inauguration
Authors: Badrun Badrun
Published: August 2020

The discourse on Islam Nusantara has become quite popular discussion among Indonesian society in the last two to three years. Not only in the grassroots level, Islam Nusantara also becomes a study in several Islamic institutions in Indonesia. In fact, there are some Islamic universities that have opened Islam Nusantara study program. On the one hand, many groups welcomed the studies of Islam Nusantara after being proclaimed by Nahdliyyin in the 33th NU Congress in Jombang, 2015. But on the other hand, there are some groups who reject Islam Nusantara and considered it as heresy in Islam. Essentially, Islam Nusantara is not a new movement, not a new mazhab, not a new ideology, and certainly not a new religion. Islam Nusantara is Islam that exists in the nation and is not sourced from the nation. However, Islam Nusantara accepts and accommodates national cultures as long as it does not contradict the Islamic rules (sharia). It means, Islam Nusantara compromises the culture, appreciates the land where they live, but it does not eliminate tradition as long as it is still in harmony with Islamic sharia. This can become the foundation of our nationalism inauguration. In other words, Islam Nusantara does not only discuss about religious issues, but also about nationalism.

Perkembangan teknologi dalam sistem pendidikan mendorong perpustakaan menyediakan fasilitas layanan yang mempunyai kemampuan mencegah tindakan plagiasi. Pustakawan sebagai pelaksana layanan perpustakaan mempunyai peran penting dalam pelaksanaan layanan tersebut. Perpustakaan melanggan sebuah software anti-plagiasi yaitu turnitin. Sistem software berbasis-web turnitin merupakan sebuah alat, bukan menggantikan peran dosen untuk menilai keaslian sebuah karya ilmiah. Karena sebuah sistem buatan manusia memiliki kelemahan dalam penggunaannya. Sebagai penanggungjawab atas dilanggannya turnitin di Universitas Dian Nuswantoro, pustakawan wajib melakukan sosialisasi tentang informasi dalam pemanfaatan turnitin. Pustakawan dituntut untuk mengembangkan diri dengan cara mempelajari tentang sistem turnitin yang dijadikan layanan di perpustakaan. Dengan adanya evaluasi tentang layanan turnitin sehingga ditemukan upaya kecurangan yang dilakukan dengan cara memanfaatkan kelemahan sistem turnitin. Dalam hal ini pustakawan berusaha meningkatkan kesadaran atas pemakai turnitin, pustakawan berperan sebagai orang yang menyampaikan informasi tentang turnitin kepada pemustaka, sebagai pembimbing mahasiswa untuk penggunaan turnitin dan menjelaskan cara penelusuran informasi, sebagai pembelajar akan perkembangan ilmu pengetahuan dan sistem pendidikan.

Tanggung jawab penelitian merupakan salah satu kewajiban yang harus ditunaikan oleh perguruan tinggi. Ini berlaku tidak hanya kepada para dosen, namun juga kepara para mahasiswa. Namun usaha untuk menjalankan riset seringkali menemui berbagai kendala. Kendala yang ada diantaranya adalah terbatasnya sumber daya manusia peniti yang berkualitas dan belum tersedianya jajaran staf pendukung dalam manajemen riset. Perpustakaan bisa mengambil menawarkan alternatif solusi untuk mengatasi kedua hal tersebut. Perpustakaan bisa mengembangkan layanan yang bersifat research support services kepada para peneliti di perguruan tinggi. Praktik serupa telah dijalankan di perpustakaan perguruan tinggi di luar negeri. Dengan menyarikan dari berbagai publikasi, tulisan ini hendak memberikan gambaran tentang best practices pelaksanaan research support services di lingkungan perpustakan perguruan tinggi.

Shari'a is a rule or law that is sourced from Allah Ta'ala to be a guide to human life so that it impacts on the benefit of life, both personally and socially. The Shari'a of Allah Ta'ala, everything is benefit and there is no evil, although sometimes it is considered bad by humans, but in essence is good for humans themselves. This study aims to explore the harmony of Islamic law on the benefit of humans in the midst of the Covid-19 outbreak. The details are aimed at giving explanations and religious insights that are washatiyah (moderate) from a number of suggestions in the form of a prohibition or restriction by the government regarding religious activities and education carried out face to face when the Covid-19 outbreak occurred. The research method used is the library research method with a phenomenological and normative approach. The issues studied are sourced from literacy which has a relation to the focus of the research, obtained from reading turats, research results and others. The results showed that the government's prohibition on termination and restriction in religious and educational activities during the Covid-19 period, such as: restrictions on religious and educational activities carried out face-to-face, were cases permitted in the Shari'a for human benefit.

Current Account Deficits and Sustainability in Africa: Evidence from Cointegration Approach
Authors: Kouassi Eugene , Kolotioloman Soro , Juana James Sharka
Published: August 2020

This paper gives an overview of current accounts sustainability in forty African countries over the 1980–2016 period. The paper goes through by testing if this sustainability depends on regional blocs, income levels or exchange rate regimes. For this purpose, the paper employs a formal theoretical framework, recent cointegration techniques like threshold cointegration to test for long-run relationship between variables. Results reveal that although exports and imports plus interest payments on external debt are cointegrated in African economies, the current accounts are weakly sustainable in 45% of African economies and unsustainable in only 8%. Among regional blocs, income level and exchange rate regime groupings, only exchange rate regime groupings have a significant eﬀect on current account sustainability. Since current account is strong sustainable in countries operating ﬂexible and intermediate exchange rate regimes than countries operating fixed regimes.JEL Codes: F32, C23, C22
Feasibility study of transfacet sacroiliac screw fixation based on Mimics

Published: August 2020

Background

Sacroiliac screw (SIS) has become an effective internal fixation method for sacral fracture and sacroiliac joint dislocation. However, classic placement of SIS has some defects such as possibility of nerve injury with a learning curve and contraindications. An alternative to the classic placement of SIS is expected

Objective

To explore the feasibility of transfacet sacroiliac screw (TFSIS), so as to provide an alternative to the classic placement of SIS.

Methods

CT scan data of pelvis in 60 healthy adults including 30 males and 30 females with an average age of 45 years (range 20-70 years), were transferred into a PC. The anatomical parameters of screw channel of TFSIS were measured by simulating the placement of TFSIS by Mimics 16.0 software on the PC. Secondly, according to the anatomical parameters of each pelvis, 5.0 mm and 6.0 mm screws were used respectively to simulate the placement of TFSIS in 30 pelvises to observe the effect of placement.

Results

The length of screw channel was (10.84 ± 0.93) cm, the distance between the insertion point and the center of the superior facet of S1 was (1.14 ± 0.93) mm, the distance between the exit point and the upper -posterior border of acetabulum was (5.73 ± 2.57) mm, the anteversion angle between the central axis of the screw channel and the line parallel to the upper endplate of S1 was (53.96±3.94) °, the outward angle between the central axial of the screw channel and the longitudinal axis of the trunk was (47.4 7± 5.13)°, the safety angle in sagittal plane was (13.91 ± 2.92) °, the safety angle in coronal plane was (8.57 ± 1.63) °, the height was (11.91 ± 1.47) mm, and the width was (7.75 ± 0.89) mm. Within the channel for 5.0mm and 6.0mm screws accounted for 100%.

Conclusions

Placement of TFSIS with a diameter of 5.0-6.0 mm and a length of 90 mm is safe and feasible, which may be used as an alternative to the classic placement of SIS.
The Bidirectional Relationship Between Cognitive Function and Loss Hierarchy of Activities of Daily Living Among Older Adults with Disabilities in China: A Cross-Lagged Analysis
Authors: Sun Qian , Jiang Nan , Lu Nan , Lou Vivian W. Q.
Published: August 2020

Background

The Chinese population is experiencing rapid aging, limitations in activities of daily living and decline in cognitive function among the oldest-old group causes tremendous economic, family and social burden. Examining their relationship is critically relevant for policymakers. The present study aimed to determine the bidirectional relationship between cognitive function and the loss hierarchy of activities of daily living among older adults in China.
Methods

Data were derived from a sample of 469 older adults who participated in both the 2010 and 2013 waves of a Longitudinal Study on Family Caregivers for Frail Older Adults. Cognitive function was assessed using the Chinese version of the Short Portable Mental Status Questionnaire and activities of daily living were measured by self-reports of having difficulty or needing help with basic daily activities. A cross-lagged analysis was adopted.
Results

In general, the results showed cognitive function in 2010 was a significant predictor of middle loss activities of daily living (dressing, moving, bathing and toileting) in 2013, and late loss activities of daily living (feeding and hygiene) in 2013. The loss hierarchy of activities of daily living among older adults was not shown to be significant as a risk factor of cognitive function in 2013.
Conclusions

The findings expanded understanding of the relationship between cognitive function and the loss hierarchy of activities of daily living as well as provided evidence for clinicians and service planners for anticipating the subsequent care and service needs of the elderly and their families.

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic caused by the new coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) is currently responsible for over 500 thousand deaths in 216 countries across the world and is affecting over 10 million people. The absence of FDA approved drugs against the new SARS-CoV-2 virus has highlighted an urgent need to design new drugs. We developed an integrated model of the human cell and the SARS-CoV-2 virus to provide insight into the pathogenetic mechanism of the virus and to support current therapeutic strategies. We show the biochemical reactions required for the growth and general maintenance of the human cell, first of all, in its healthy state. We then demonstrate how the entry of the SARS-CoV-2 virus into the human cell causes biochemical and structural changes, leading to a change of cell functions or cell death. We have completed a comparative analysis of our model and other previously generated cell type models and highlight 48 pathways and over 800 reactions hijacked by the virus for its replication and survival. We designed a new tool which predicts 15 unique reactions as drug targets from our models (the integrated human macrophage, human airway epithelial cells and the SARS-CoV2 virus) and provide a platform for future studies on viral entry inhibition and drug optimisation strategies.

Salivary gland stones, or sialoliths, are the most common cause of the obstruction of salivary glands. Symptomatic sialolithiasis has a prevalence of 0.45% in the general population, is characterized by recurrent painful periprandial swelling of the affected gland and often results in sialadenitis with the need for surgical intervention. The mechanism behind the formation of sialoliths has been elusive. Here we show that neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) initiate the formation and growth of sialoliths. The deposition of neutrophil granulocyte extracellular DNA around small crystals results in their dense aggregation, and the subsequent mineralization creates alternating layers of dense mineral, predominantly calcium salt deposits and DNA. Further agglomeration and appositional growth of these structures promotes the development of macroscopic sialoliths that finally occlude the efferent ducts of the salivary glands, causing clinical symptoms and salivary gland dysfunction. These findings provide an entirely novel insight into the mechanism of sialolithogenesis in which an immune system mediated response essentially participates in the physico-chemical process of concrement formation and growth.
