Published: April 2021

Background: Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a most common rheumatological disorder that causes functional limitation and disability. The most common problem in knee OA are joint pain and stiffness. It will lead to decreased quality of life and it have a serious economic burden on any country due to effect of disability and treatment.

Methods: A correlational study was conducted to find out correlation between Ahlback grading and knee society score (KSS) on a sample of 100 moderate to severe knee OA patients and 142 OA knees. Data was collected at orthopedics OPD, for a period of 3 months by purposive sampling.

Results: On evaluation, mean age of the participants was 60.19±1.01. Out of 100 patients, 42 patients had bilateral knee OA, therefore total 142 knees included in the analysis. More than half (51%) participants were overweight. Only 34% subjects had compliament to physiotherapy. Around 76% subjects taking analgesics and massage therapy to reduce knee pain. Maximum 82.4% subjects had a poor knee condition in KSS and mean score is 49.07±1.06. Ahlback grading in X-ray had negative correlation -0.610 with KSS. Hence it is evaluated, both the scales have approximately same result as it is analyzed that both scales are moderately correlated. There is significant association of age, occupation and physiotherapy with Ahlback grading followed with KSS significant associated with BMI, occupation and physiotherapy.

Conclusions: The study concluded that there is a moderate correlation found between Ahlback X-ray grading and knee society scoring. X-ray and knee society scoring (clinical evaluation) both are essential for effective treatment of OA.

Authors: Sangamesh
Published: April 2021

Elevation of hs-CRP is associated with increased risk of type 2 diabetes development in patients with all levels of metabolic syndrome. This study aimed to assess the hs-CRP among the patients with CAD in type 2 diabetes mellitus.

All the patients admitted under cardiology department of PMSSY Bangalore medical college were included in present case control study, conducted between November 2017 to May 2019. The patients with known history of diabetes mellitus for 5-10yrs of duration and willing to be part of study with age >40 were included in present study.

Total 70 patients were included who fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Among them 35 were T2DM with CAD (Group A) and 35 were T2DM without CAD (Group B). Among them 40 were males and 30 were female patients. The mean age of patients was 57.2±9.4 in group A and 58.2±10.4 in group B patients, which was statistically not significantly different. There was a significant higher mean hs-CRP in patients of group A compared to group B patients.

Hs-CRP is a reliable marker for the atherosclerotic events, and there is a significant relation of coronary artery disease with the elevated hs-CRP in patients. We suggest that patients with diabetes mellitus should undergo a routine screening for hs-CRP levels to detect risk of CAD at early phase.

Published: April 2021

The pandemic caused by COVID-19 that is plaguing the whole world at this point is currently a major threat on global health. However, similar to many other respiratory disease outbreaks in the past, this virus also has environmental implications, with its spread being substantially affected by the environmental conditions of a locality. Also, the lockdown measure undertaken as a protective measure against the spread of the disease is affecting the global environment. There have been numerous studies around the world to find the correlation between transmission and severity Coronavirus related disease and mortality with environmental parameters. These parameters included temperature, air pollution, climate factors, humidity, wind speed, atmospheric pressure and many more with COVID-19 outbreak. It was found that meteorological factors may show an independent part in the spread of COVID-19. Considering the other side of the coin, the world prior to this Coronavirus outbreak was facing air pollution, global warming, sound pollution and many more environmental adversities. However, since the beginning of the lockdown period a major change has been noticed in terms of various environmental parameters that measure the quality of the environment around the globe. This study is an attempt to conduct a comparative study on the correlation amid environmental influences and the COVID-19 outbreak around the world.
An Efficient Optimization Algorithm for Modular Product Design
Authors: Wahdan Hayam G. , Abdelslam Hisham M. , Kassem Sally S.
Published: April 2021

Modularity concepts play an important role in the process of developing new complex products. Modularization involves dividing a product into a set of modules - each of which consisting of a set of components - that are interdependent in the same cluster and independent between clusters. During this process, a product can be represented using a Design Structure Matrix (DSM). A DSM acts as a tool for system analysis to provide clear visualization of product elements. In addition, DSM, shows the interactions between these product elements. This paper aims to propose an efficient optimization algorithm that dynamically divides a DSM into an optimal number and size of clusters in a way that minimizes total coordination cost; the interactions inside clusters (modules) and interactions between clusters. Given problem complexity, five metaheuristic optimization algorithms are proposed and tested to solve it; these algorithms are used to determine: (1) the optimal clusters’ number within a DSM, and (2) the optimal components assignment clusters to minimize the total coordination cost. The five used metaheuristics are: Cuckoo Search, Modified Cuckoo Search, Particle Swarm Optimization, Simulated Annealing, and Gravitational Search Algorithm. Eighty problems with different properties are generated and used to examine the proposed algorithms for effectiveness and efficiency. Extensive comparisons are conducted and analyzed. Cuckoo Search is outperforming the other four algorithms.

Published: April 2021

A etnoherpetologia pode ser utilizada como uma importante ciência na obtenção de informações sobre répteis e anfíbios. Nessa perspectiva, este trabalho teve por objetivo registrar o conhecimento popular, verificando as concepções e valores atribuídos a estes animais. O levantamento foi realizado no município de Caçapava do Sul, estado do Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil, através de questionários contendo questões objetivas e subjetivas que foram aplicados em duas escolas, uma localizada em área urbana e outra em área rural. Em adicional, foram aplicados questionários aos membros da comunidade rural. Participando assim, um total de 84 pessoas, no presente estudo. Os resultados obtidos demonstraram que vários mitos envolvendo anfíbios e répteis ainda são considerados reais. Entretanto, a importância da herpetofauna para o meio ambiente foi evidenciada pelos participantes. Ainda assim, devido às crenças populares e a falta de um conhecimento mais elaborado, acabam tendo uma concepção equivocada destes animais. A pesquisa possibilitou uma melhor perspectiva sobre as atitudes e concepções dos indivíduos em relação ao tema abordado. Por fim, esses estudos são uma importante ferramenta na área de Educação Ambiental, possibilitando ampliar o conhecimento sobre essas espécies que são muito mencionadas em mitos e crenças, de forma errônea por grande parte da população.

Published: April 2021

Objective: This study aims to identify the resilience level in formal and informal in-home caregivers of older adults in Ibagué during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: Quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional study with a convenience sample of 49 formal and informal in-home caregivers of older adults. We administered the Brief Resilient Coping Scale (BRCS), an instrument consisting of four items, to these caregivers. The questionnaire was self-completed and, in some cases, answered by telephone. The data were collected in April 2020. Results: 35 women and 14 men participated in this study. The formal (69.4 %) and informal caregivers, mostly family (30.6 %), were between 18 and 30 years old (65.30 %). Their resilience levels were high (16.3 %), moderate (61.3 %), and low (22.4 %). There was a significant association between caregiver type and resilience level (p ≤ 0.05). Other studied covariates did not show a significant association. Conclusions: Due to stressful situations caused by care during social isolation and the risk of death of the elderly by COVID-19, strategies to improve resilience related to emotional, cognitive, and sociocultural interventions in the caregiver should be considered.

Research aim: to investigate the proliferative status of endometrium in the different morphotypes of endometrial hyperplasia based upon the identification of key molecular markers of the cell cycle.Materials and methods. Endometrial samples taken from 137 women were investigated: 40 – normal endometrium (NE), 61 – non-atypical endometrial hyperplasia (ЕH), 36 – atypical hyperplasia (AHE). Expression of gene cyclin D1, nuclear antigen Кі-67, glycoproteins Е-cadherin and β-catenin, estradiol receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PGR) were investigated. Results. ER expression of NE was high in the proliferative phase and decreased significantly in the secretory phase. PGR expression was high in both phases. ER expression of EH in glandular (180 ± 8.3) and in stromal cells (170.5 ± 4.1) exceed the indicators of the secretory phase. PGR expression in the stromal cells of EH (197.5 ± 9.3) exceed significantly indicators of NE. ER and PGR expression significantly and reliably decreased if there was AHE. ER expression of glandular cells was 2.6 times lower (74.6 ± 3.9) compere to proliferative NE (p <0.05) and 2.4 times lower to EH (р <0.05). ER of stromal AHE cells dropped to 30.3 ± 2.8, which was 5.5–5.6 times lower than in the proliferative NE and EH (p <0.002). PGR expression was 2.5–2.7 times lower (71.1 ± 2.3) in AHE glands than in NE and 2.8 times lower than in EH (p <0.05). Gene cyclin D1 expression was reliably increased in AHE cells compere to NE and EH. Protein Кі-67 expression in the glandular cells of EH was 2.6 times lower (p <0.05) and in AHE 2.9 times lower (p <0.05) than NE proliferative phase. We discovered strong direction to decreasing Е-cadherin expression in EH and it was lowest for AHE. Opposite direction was expression of β-catenin. The highest numbers of positive samples were observed in AHE and it was 100%. The highest numbers of negative β-catenin samples were in the NE cells (32,5–35%).Conclusion. The epigenetic profile investigation of endometrial hyperplasia will be useful for future development of carcinogenesis risk stratification, identifying patients with high risk of endometrial cancer and also for choosing the optimal way to influence the pathological process in the endometrium.

Published: April 2021

This study evaluated the clinical performance of the cobas 4800 HPV Test (Roche Molecular Systems, Pleasanton, CA, USA) for high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) testing with individual HPV-16/HPV-18 genotyping in women 21 years or older with atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASCUS). Women (N = 47,208) were recruited in the United States during routine screening, and liquid-based cytology and HPV testing were performed. The ASCUS prevalence was 4.1% (1,923/47,208), and 1,578 women underwent colposcopy with valid results. The cobas 4800 HPV Test demonstrated performance comparable to the Hybrid Capture 2 test (QIAGEN, Gaithersburg, MD, USA) for the detection of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) grade 2 or worse and grade 3 or worse. HPV-16/HPV-18+ women had a greater absolute risk of CIN 2 or worse compared with pooled HR-HPV+ and HR-HPV- women (24.4%, 14.0%, and 0.8%, respectively).The cobas 4800 HPV Test is clinically validated for ASCUS triage. HPV-16/HPV-18 genotyping can identify women at highest risk for high-grade cervical disease, and this additional risk stratification may be used in formulating patient management decisions.

Authors: Galkin Alexandr , Pankov Vladimir
Published: April 2021

Parallelepiped-shaped technical objects, such as tanks, storage cells, etc., are commonly used for industrial needs. Many of them require energy intensive heating. Achieving the lowest energy requirements is possible by optimizing heat losses by choosing optimal sizing of those objects. This specific case of unconditional optimization has been investigated and described in this paper. Equations for calculating optimal sizing have been suggested. The smallest surface area has been chosen as an optimization criterion while a volume of an experimental parallelepiped-shaped technical object varied. The results show that the cube shape can be taken as optimal.

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationships between personality traits and prosocial and antisocial behaviors displayed in team athletes. In this respect, the data was collected from a total of 481 (64 females and 417 males) participants engaged in team sports. The relational screening model was used in the study. The Prosocial and Antisocial Behavior in Sports Scale, Five Factor Personality Inventory and Personal Information Form prepared by the researcher were used to collect data. Descriptive statistics, and Pearson Correlation Coefficient were used in the analysis. As a result of the analysis it was determined that there was a positive and a significant relationship between prosocial behavior-team (PT), prosocial behavior-opponent (PO) and extroversion, responsibility and openness sub-dimensions. However, significant negative difference was determined between prosocial behavior-team, prosocial behavior-opponent (PO) and neuroticism. Accordingly, as prosocial behaviors of team athletes increase, the neuroticism level of the athletes decreases. A negative significant relationship was determined between the scores obtained from the antisocial behavior-team (AT) and antisocial behavior-opponent (AO) and the sub-dimensions of consistency and responsibility. There was a significant positive correlation between the neuroticism sub-dimension. There was no statistically significant relationship between the sub-dimensions of extraversion and openness.

The research was conducted using an explanatory mixed design. The qualitative data were collected from 414 teachers from 39 schools covering all districts of Erzurum province through the Multidimensional Job Motivation Scale. Qualitative data were collected from 30 participants through the Teacher Interview Form. Quantitative data were analyzed by t test, and ANOVA test; qualitative data were analyzed by content analysis. The results indicate that teachers’ intrinsic motivation is higher than their extrinsic motivation. Moreover, teacher motivation varies in terms of gender, age, seniority year, class size, and settlement. More extrinsic motivation factors were found than intrinsic; the external factors are mostly negative, while internal factors are mostly positive. The most significant positive motivational factor is students, and the key factor decreasing motivation is class crowding. Future studies could collect more comprehensive results from a larger sample group that includes all types of schools.
Estratégias de enfrentamento dos riscos e desastres ambientais por meio da Política de Assistência Social
Authors: Azeredo Luana Fernandes dos Santos
Published: April 2021

This article reflects on the performance of the Social Assistance Policy in contexts of environmental disasters - a notably fundamental theme to the debate today. To do so, we started with bibliographic and documentary research seeking to understand the performance of this Policy in relation to disasters, considering its institution in a society founded on the specific logic of capitalist accumulation. We identified that the Social Assistance Policy's response to environmental disasters has still been focused, based on emergency logic, disregarding the procedurality of the production of disasters, as well as the elements of the social structure that foster them. Considering this, we highlight the strategic function of the Social-Assistance Surveillance sector, demonstrating the importance of professional performance in the midst of these scenarios, as well as signaling strategies for this. As this sector works directly with the production of knowledge about reality, we have developed an argument explaining the relevance of this performance in actions to prevent environmental risks and disasters.

Published: April 2021

The daily mobility in space is one of the fundamental characteristics of contemporary times and it has been presenting itself as an essential mark of the connection of people with the world, with resources and opportunities. However, the social inequalities expressed in the space are also reflected in the conditions of moving around the city, which become more difficult, especially for social groups in areas with occurrences of environmental disasters. In times of growing uncertainty and new risks, the relationship between mobility and immobility in these areas becomes even more complex. Through qualitative interviews, the exploratory objective of this article is to reflect and collect empirical elements about the daily mobility to the work of people living in areas that have experienced the occurrence of disasters in Campos dos Goytacazes (Brazil). In these times of uncertainty aggravated by the pandemic of the new coronavirus, they face the dilemma of the simultaneous need to stay at home and go out to work.

Published: April 2021

Social hazards, understood as one of the fields of study of Anthropic hazards, contains a variety and complexity of phenomena that encompass work, family life, social relations, among others. Anthropic cindinic sciences are faced with new challenges generated by everyday life, demanding territorial analysis in a multi-scale perspective. Furthermore, it is necessary to bear in mind the dynamics of the communities, concerning their way of living, interpreting, and acting, aspects that may lead to the development of social tensions and frictions. This paper aims to discuss social risks from a multi-territorial view, starting with the issue of social frictions related to graffiti and based on the case study of the University of Coimbra as heritage classified by UNESCO – World Heritage Areas. The number of tourists and visitors has increased impressively, having transformed the dynamics of the city and of the protected area, namely through the rehabilitation and preservation of buildings. Despite this, the University and the upper part of town have been the target of intense graffiti, raising epistemological, civic and institutional issues.
KLASİK TÜRK ŞİİRİNDE "ÖMR"E DAİR
Authors: ÖZEROL Nazmi
Published: April 2021

Şiirin, insan açısından en önemli yönü duygu ve düşünce dünyasını yansıtmada sunduğu sınırsız anlatım olanaklarıdır. İnsan zihninde beliren imgeler, çok değişik tasarımlar, çağrışımlar, duygulanmalar, bağdaştırma ve benzetme gibi etkinlikler şiir dilinde öylesine değişik, yeni ve özgün birleşimler içinde verilmektedir ki ortaya yeni bir iletişim yolu çıkmaktadır. Şiir dilinde alışılmamış bağdaştırmalara yönelmek de etkili anlatım çabasının bir ürünü ve güçlü bir anlatım tekniğidir. Özellikle somutlaştırma yoluyla yapılan alışılmamış bağdaştırmalarda sözcüklerin ve düşüncelerin metin içinde anlam boyutları genişler; soyut ve somut unsurların bir araya getirilmesiyle, bu unsurların anlam çerçevesinden daha zengin ve alışılmadık çağrışımlar ortaya çıkar. Türk şiirinin bütün dönemlerinde pek çok şairin sık başvurduğu bir etkileme ve anlatımı güçlendirme öğesi olan alışılmamış bağdaştırmalar, Klasik şiirde de gelenekselleşmiş bir üslûp özelliği olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Bu çalışmada Klasik şairlerin “ömür” göstergesine temel anlamının yanı sıra farklı hayal ve tasarımların etkisiyle yükledikleri anlamlar üzerinde durulmuştur. “Ömür”le kurulan ilgi ve ilişkilendirmelerde şairlerin benzetme, teşhis, istiare, telmih gibi çeşitli söz sanatlarından yararlandığı görülmüştür. Şairler, insanoğluna bahşedilmiş bir nimet olarak gördükleri ömrü bazı beyitlerde doğrudan doğruya sevgiliyle özdeşleştirmişler ve sevgiliye “ömrüm” diye hitap etmişlerdir. Sevgilinin güzellik unsurlarından saç, uzunluk ilgisi yönüyle çoğu zaman ömürle ilişkilendirilmiştir. Değer yönüne vurgu yapmak için ömür, kıymet ifade eden kavram ve olgulara benzetilmiştir. Ömrün, bazen sevgilinin peşinde koşmaktan dolayı boşa geçtiği söylenirken bazen de bu durumdan şikâyet edilmez; âşık, sevgilinin eziyetlerine sabırla katlanır ve onsuz geçirilen ömrün anlamsızlığına vurgu yapar. Bazı beyitlerde de sevgiliye kavuşma arzusunda olan âşıkların, ömrün kısalığından şikâyetçi olduğu görülür. Ömrün, tabiatla (bahçe, su, gökyüzü vb.) ve başka kavramlarla ilişkilendirilmesinde bu kavramların taşıdığı anlam özellikleri etkili olmuştur. Sevgili, memduh/övülen ve âşığın kendisi söz konusu edildiğinde ömrün uzunluğu, sağlık ve mutluluk içinde geçmesi için dua edilirken söz konusu rakip ya da düşmanlar olunca ömrün kısa olması istenir. Dinî, tasavvufî ve hakimane tarzda yazılmış şiirlerde ise ömrün aldatıcı ve geçici olduğu, gaflete düşülmemesi gerektiği, makam ve mevkilerin geçici olduğu vurgulanmıştır.

Published: April 2021

Neste texto enfocamos o discurso antropológico sobre a sustentabilidade das culturas indígenas da América do Sul privilegiando a análise de alguns artigos de dois expoentes da antropologia ecológica e da etnoecologia (ou etnobiologia): Eric Ross e Darrell Posey. Iniciamos com uma breve caracterização da ecologia cultural e do dilema entre cultura e razão prática, no qual esta abordagem estava encerrada. Em seguida, abordamos a intensa importação de categorias ecológicas pela narrativa etnológica nos anos 60. Depois, descrevemos, em linhas gerais, o debate sobre os condicionamentos ambientais do desenvolvimento cultural de sociedades indígenas na América do Sul, no final dos anos 70. Finalmente, apontamos o estreito vínculo entre o enunciado que apresenta, nos anos 80 e 90, os sistemas de conhecimento indígena como fontes de preservação e fomento da biodiversidade com o determinismo ecológico e seu contexto transepistêmico.

This study was conducted with a sample of 100 patients selected using the purposive sampling technique. Firstly, the hemoglobin level of the patients was measured. Then, beetroot biscuits were given to the patients for thirty days as the intervention. A Wilcoxon test was performed to pinpoint the differences between the pre-test and post-test results. It was found that there was a 2.01 gr/dl increase in hemoglobin after beetroot biscuits were given to patients with pulmonary tuberculosis at the Integrated Service Unit of the Pulmonary Central Hospital of North Sumatera. It was also found that the differences were significant when comparing the average level of hemoglobin before and after the intervention with a p value of 0.000. This study suggests that doctors and nurses play important roles in constructing patients’ knowledge and understanding on the importance of anemia prevention in order to improve community knowledge to use local resources to improve health outcomes.Keywords: anemia, biscuit, beetroot, tuberculosis
Exploring Relationship among E-Learning Platforms, Technical System Quality and Perceived Students’ Satisfaction on Higher Educations’ System for E-Learning
Authors: Leonnard Leonnard
Published: April 2021

Currently, most Indonesian universities have adopted an online academic management information system (AMIS) to provide academic and administrative service activities. This study aims to explore the relationship between the e-learning platforms and the technical system quality, and the perceived satisfaction of students. Data were collected using questionnaires distributed to 286 students of a university. The questionnaire showed that there is a difference in the e-learning tools, techniques, or platforms used by the students. The results of the chi-square test show that there is no significant relationship between e-learning platform and technical system quality and also perceived satisfaction of the students. That shows the platform choices do not affect students’ perception of quality and satisfaction. However, technical system quality is significantly related to perceived student satisfaction.  Therefore, the e-learning quality should be improved in line with the innovation of a learning system during the pandemic, so that students’ satisfaction in the learning involvement increase.

Indonesia has quite extensive multi-purpose reservoir waters, one of which was built for the first time is the Ir. H. Djuanda reservoir or better known as Jatiluhur reservoir. The activities carried out in the Jatiluhur reservoir are varied, such as fisheries, transportation,water sources as well as power generation as secondary functions of the reservoir. If managed properly, the reservoir will give a real contribution to the economy and welfare of the community without disrupting the sustainability of the ecosystems and its functions. In Indonesia, problems that often occur in all aquatic ecosystems are eutrophication (nutrient enrichment), sedimentation, and pollution. Water hyacinth (Eichorniacrassipes) is a type of aquatic plant that is generally considered as a weed. The study aims to formulate a water hyacinth management strategyusing the SWOT method with ten respondents.The selection of respondents using purposive sampling method.The results showed that all stakeholders, government, and communities must work together in utilizing and managing reservoirs and watersheds that enter the reservoir waters so that the quality status of reservoir becomes better and the growth of water hyacinth does not increase rapidly. Water hyacinth can also be used as fertilizer or crafts and not just a weed.

Published: April 2021

Tangki merupakan wadah penyimpanan muatan dan menjadi bagian utama kapal pengangkut cairan dan gas agar muatan terjaga dan aman. Sebagai media penyimpanan, tangki akan selalu mendapatkan beban yang berasal dari dalam maupun beban yang berasal dari luar tangki. Sloshing merupakan salah satu beban yang berasal dari dalam, sloshing timbul akibat adanya gerakan kapal/tangki mengakibatkan gerak bebas fluida berosilasi menghantam dinding tangki. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mencari pengaruh muatan terhadap gerakan dan beban sloshing pada tangki dengan variasi jumlah muat. Model tangki yang digunakan mengambil referensi kapal tanker general purpose yang mengangkut minyak mentah dalam kondisi dua dimensi persegi panjang (midship) dengan lebar 8,6 m dan tinggi 8 m dua sisi kiri dan kanan. Variasi yang digunakan adalah volume muat 10% (ketinggian 0,8 m), volume 30% (ketinggian 2,4 m), volume 50% (ketinggian 4 m), variasi 70% (ketinggian 5,6 m) dan variasi 90% (ketinggian 7,8 m). Simulasi dilaksanakan dengan metode numerik yaitu Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) menggunakan software Ansys Fluent. Gerakang tangki didasarkan dari gerakan kapal yang dalam hal ini dibatasi pada gerak heaving dan rolling, dari hasil simulasi disimpulkan bahwa efek sloshing terbesar terjadi pada variasi volume muat 10% frekuensi 2,145, sedangkan tekanan terbesar terjadi pada titik sudut kiri bawah tangki dengan tekanan 443,29 Kpa.
