Adenocarcinoma of the appendix mimicking complicated appendicitis in the elderly: A report of two cases
Authors: Cuk Mirjana , Gajanin Radoslav , Djuricic Slavisa , Maric Veljko , Maric Radmil , Kovacevic Miodrag
Published: March 2019

Introduction. Primary appendiceal adenocarcinoma is a very rare malignancy
which accounts for 0.1% of all appendectomy specimens. In both patients
presented in this paper, appendectomy was performed due to suspected acute
complicated appendicitis. Case Reports. The first patient, a 77-year-old
man, presented with a low grade colonic-type pT3 adenocarcinoma of the
appendix, diagnosed by histopathological examination of the resected
appendix delivered in a fixative. A month after appendectomy, the patient
underwent right hemicolectomy of a tumor at the edge of the resection. Due
to a cardiovascular disease, adjuvant chemotherapy was not indicated. The
second patient, a 74-year-old female, presented with a low grade mucinous
adenocarcinoma of the appendix with subserous infiltration, diagnosed by
histopathological analysis of the resected appendix. Eight months after
appendectomy, the patient developed a recurrent tumor in the cecal area.
After radical surgical excision of the recurrent tumor, the patient received
adjuvant chemotherapy. Both patients had a 5-year survival without relapse.
Conclusion. Preoperative diagnosis of appendiceal adenocarcinoma is a
challenge due to overlapping symptoms of complicated acute appendicitis. Our
results suggest that in elderly patients with symptoms of complicated acute
appendicitis, appendectomy should be done with intraoperative
histopathological frozen section consultation. In advanced stages of
adenocarcinoma, right hemicolectomy is a better choice than appendectomy.
Dermoid cyst of the oral cavity: A case report
Authors: Dimitrijevic Milovan , Dimitrijevic Ana , Boricic Ivan , Djurkovic Petar
Published: March 2019

Introduction. Dermoid cysts are benign developmental skin growths that can
occur in any part of the body. Dermoid cysts of the head and neck account
for 7% of all cysts, and are most frequently located near the lateral aspect
of the eyebrow. They are rarely found in the oral cavity, accounting for
0.01% of all oral cavity cysts. Case Report. A 15-years-old patient was
referred to our Clinic due to a growth in the mouth. Clinical examination
and magnetic resonance imaging showed a clearly demarcated, oval, cystic
growth in the midline sublingual region. Intraoral incision, typical for
frenectomy, with cyst excision was performed. Histopathological findings
suggested a dermoid cyst. Conclusion. Dermoid cysts of the oral cavity are
very rare; they grow slowly and when they reach certain dimensions, they
interfere with chewing, swallowing, and lead to progressive breathing
difficulty. Dermoid cysts should be included in the differential diagnosis
of sublingual mass. Magnetic resonance imaging provides complete information
about the localization, size, and content of the growth and contributes
significantly to the decision on the surgical approach.
The use of anabolic androgenic steroids: A focus on polypharmacy
Authors: Nikolic Bozana , Rakic Dusica
Published: March 2019

Introduction. Anabolic androgenic steroids, such as testosterone and its
synthetic analogue, nandrolone, have clear clinical indications. However,
their abuse is practiced to enhance physical performance in professional,
recreational and non-professional athletes; outside of sports, their
nonmedical use is associated with different social groups (criminal
activities, substance abuse). Polypharmacy. Testosterone and its synthetic
analogues are also used for nonmedical purposes, mainly administered in
supraphysiological doses in cycles lasting a few weeks. In order to
potentiate the anabolic properties and control the adverse effects, the
users also administer other pharmacological agents. Thus, growth hormone and
insulin are complement to anabolic steroids; clenbuterol, amphetamine and
thyroid hormones stimulate body fat loss; diuretics reduce the body weight
and improve muscle definition; and erythropoietin increases the training
capacity and accelerates the recovery after hard competitions. To control
adverse effects, cardiovascular drugs, central nervous system depressants,
central nervous system stimulants, human chorionic gonadotropin, sexual
enhancement drugs, estrogen antagonists, analgesics/opioids, nonsteroidal
anti-inflammatory drugs and others, are administered. Probenecid,
finasteride and diuretics mask the administration of other doping agents.
Additionally, during the last two decades, attention has increasingly been
focused on the relationship between the use of anabolic androgenic steroids
and psychoactive substances (alcohol, cannabis, amphetamines, cocaine,
hallucinogens). Conclusion. Supraphysiological doses and polypharmacy
additionally increase the risk of adverse effects, including withdrawal
syndrome; therefore, prevention of nonmedical use of anabolic androgenic
steroids should be a public health priority.

Published: March 2019

Introduction/Objective. The aim of study was to collect information about factors related to glaucoma damage at the time of surgery in Novi Sad, Vojvodina province, Serbia. Methods. Retrospective data collection on filtrating procedures of 38 patients with open-angle glaucoma was performed. The study was done at the University Eye Clinic, Clinical center of Vojvodina, Serbia between July 2011 and December 2014. The following variables were collected from a data collection sheet at last visit for each patient: age, sex, best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), visual field indices (MD and PSD), number of active antiglaucoma drugs, glaucoma type, and surgical procedures. Results. The mean age was 66.21 ? 17.92 years. Among patients, 57% were female and 43% were male. Primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) was found in 60% (23/38), pseudoexfoliative glaucoma (XFG) in 37% (14/38) of patients. The median number of active antiglaucoma drugs was 2.73, ranging 1?4. More than 90% of patients were on two or more medications before surgery. Mean BCVA was 0.64 ? 0.68 and oscillated 0.1?1 (according to Snellen). IOP on last visit before surgery varied 15?42 mmHg (mean IOP 26.11 ? 13.20 mmHg). Visual filed index MD showed minor and highest absolute values from -0.82-35.25 dB (mean MD -18 dB ? 19.15). All patients had trabeculectomy with Mitomycin C procedures. Conclusion. Our survey found that the level of damage is advanced in terms of visual field loss. In most patients (52.63%), visual acuity was well preserved. POAG and XFG are the most frequent diagnosis. Women and elderly population were represented in higher number in our study. Level of IOP suggests a trend to make a surgical decision at higher pressure regardless the stage of glaucoma damage.

Objectives:

To evaluate the correlation between pain and tissue reactions during induced tooth movement (ITM).

Materials and Methods:

Forty-two male Wistar rats (Rattus norvegicus; ∼90 days of age, 300 g) were used. The animals were divided into seven groups of six rats each: one control group and six experimental groups subjected to ITM by continuous force (CF) or interrupted continuous force (ICF) for 1, 3, and 5 days. Hyalinization of the periodontal ligament (PL) and occurrence of pain were observed. Animal behavior (walking, climbing, immobile posture, resting/sleeping, and directed face grooming) and the presence of chemical mediators associated with nociception, cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), and interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) in the PL were analyzed.

Results:

There was a moderate positive correlation between hyalinization and the presence of COX-2 (rs = 0.404; P < .05) and IL-1β (rs = 0.429; P < .05). There was a moderate negative correlation between hyalinization and exploratory behaviors (walking, r = −0.586, P < .01; climbing, r = −0.573, P < .01), and a moderate positive correlation between hyalinization and resting/sleeping (r = 0.467; P < .01).

Conclusions:

The results suggest a correlation between pain and undesirable tissue reactions in ITM.
Detection of the gubernacular canal and its attachment to the dental follicle may indicate an abnormal eruption status
Authors: Gaêta-Araujo Hugo , da Silva Matheus Bronetti , Tirapelli Camila , Freitas Deborah Queiroz , de Oliveira-Santos Christiano
Published: March 2019

Objectives:

To evaluate and compare the detection of gubernacular canals (GC) and their characteristics in normal and abnormal tooth eruption.

Materials and Methods:

Patients with unerupted teeth were classified according to sex and age. Each tooth was classified according to dental group, eruption status, formation status, angulation, and GC detection. The opening of the GC in the alveolar crest and the attachment sites in relation to the dental follicle were assessed. Data were analyzed by the chi-square and Kruskal-Wallis tests, with a significance level of 5%.

Results:

Cone-beam computed tomography scans of 159 patients were evaluated. The final sample (N = 598) consisted of 423 teeth with normal eruption, 140 impacted teeth, and 35 teeth with delayed eruption. The overall detection rate of GC was 90.6%. These rates were 94.1%, 87.1%, and 62.9% for normal eruption, impacted teeth, and delayed eruption, respectively. GC detection rates were higher in the early stages of tooth formation in normal tooth eruption and in impacted teeth. The rate of GC detection was even lower in delayed teeth when they were angulated. Unusual attachment sites of the GC to the dental follicle were associated with abnormal eruption status.

Conclusions:

The results of the present study suggest that GC characteristics may indicate an abnormal eruption status.
Root proximity of miniscrews at a variety of maxillary and mandibular buccal sites: Reliability of panoramic radiography
Authors: An Jae-Hwa , Kim Yong-Il , Kim Seong-Sik , Park Soo-Byung , Son Woo-Sung , Kim Sung-Hun
Published: March 2019

Objectives:

To assess the root proximity and the insertion angles of miniscrews after miniscrew placement at a variety of maxillary and mandibular buccal sites using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and to determine the differences in root proximity between CBCT and panoramic radiography (PR).

Materials and Methods:

This retrospective study included 50 patients (mean age, 22.0 ± 4.5 years) who underwent postoperative CBCT and PR after miniscrew placements for intermaxillary fixation in orthognathic surgery. Twelve miniscrews were placed in the buccal bone of each patient: at sites between the central incisor and lateral incisor (SII), sites between the canine and first premolar (SCP), and sites between the second premolar and first molar (SPM) on the right and left sides of the mandible and maxilla. The insertion angles were measured on CBCT, and the root proximity was assessed on CBCT and PR.

Results:

The mean vertical placement angles ranged from 84.27° to 95.12°, and the mean horizontal placement angles ranged from 90.93° to 101.1°. The rates of no contact between the root and the miniscrew were 68.0% in the SII, 50.5% in the SCP, and 57.8% in the SPM, which were significantly different (P = .000). The total concordance rate between PR and CBCT was 41.3%.

Conclusions:

Clinicians should use extreme caution during placement of miniscrews in the SCP. There are limitations on the use of PR for evaluating the root proximity of miniscrews.
Effects of two superimposed laser beams on spatter formation during laser welding of high alloyed steel
Authors: Nagel Falk , Brömme Lucas , Bergmann Jean Pierre
Published: March 2019

This paper presents an experimental approach for the reduction of the spatter formation during deep penetration laser welding using the spatial superposition of two laser spots. Experimental testing was performed on high alloyed austenitic steel sheets using both a high power disk laser and a diode laser. The spatter formation was reduced significantly through this approach in comparison to a conventional process using a standard top hat power density. High-speed images show the differences in the weld pool behavior in terms of the capillary length and the fluctuation of the metal vapor caused by the additional laser spot.

Published: March 2019

Viimeaikaiset tutkimukset osoittavat, että mielenkiinto sähköisiä terveyspalveluja kohtaan on lisääntynyt ja samoin tarve niiden käytön ohjaukseen. Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena on analysoida, millaisen merkityksen erikoissairaanhoidon vastaanotolla asioivat potilaat antavat sähköisille palveluille. Lisäksi he arvioivat sähköisten palvelujen hyödyllisyyttä ja helppokäyttöisyyttä. Tutkimusaineisto koottiin yliopistosairaalan poliklinikoilla asioivilta potilailta tai heidän saattajiltaan keväällä 2017. Kysely koostui Likert-asteikollisesta väittämistä (n=29) ja viidestä taustamuuttujasta.  Aineistosta (n=113/150, 75%) analysointiin luku- ja prosenttimäärät sekä rakenneyhtälömallia käyttäen tutkittiin Teknologian hyväksyminen –mallin pohjalta asetetut hypoteesien sopivuus aineistoon. Vastaajat arvioivat sähköisten palvelujen käytön motivoivan seuraamaan omaa terveyttä. He kokivat, että sähköiset palvelut ovat helposti saatavilla ja he haluavat käyttää sähköisiä palveluja terveydentilan seurantaan sekä luottavat sähköisten palvelujen mahdollisuuksiin. Vastaajista puolet oli käyttänyt Internetistä saatavilla olevia terveystestejä, mutta terveystarkastuksen sähköisesti oli tehnyt vain muutama. Kanta-palvelut olivat tuttuja ja käyttökokemuksen lisääntyessä palvelut koettiin mielekkäiksi. Nuoret hallitsivat tietotekniikan käytön, kun taas iäkkäämmät vastaajat epäilevät käyttötaitojaan. Tutkimus osoitti, että palvelujen mielekkyys vaikuttaa merkittävästi niin asennoitumiseen kuin aikomukseen käyttää sähköisiä palveluja.

ASSESS CT project evaluated SNOMED CT use for patient information exchange in EU. Finland was one of the six participating EU states. The Finnish part of the research was conducted in the National Institute for Health and Welfare. The Finnish experiences and results are interesting from the perspective of a minority language.

Research purpose was to compare SNOMED CT to two alternative terminology scenarios, a UMLS terminology set and a value set of national codes. The Finnish research team participated in the UMLS scenario. Clinical text samples were gathered from the six states resulting in a corpus of 60 texts. All texts were translated to six research languages. The annotators’ task was to identify clinically relevant concepts of a corpus text, add respective codes using a term browser, and evaluate concept and term coverages. The Finnish team conducted annotations as two pairs. The annotators chunked text samples covering 23 % of corpus texts by the first annotator and 35 % by the second. For clinical concepts, the annotators added 818 codes in total, of which 270 (33 %) were exact matches and 548 (66 %) different ones. Main issues affecting the Finnish results were corpus translation quality in a multilingual context and vagueness of annotation guidelines contributing to different interpretations of included semantic groups. Consequently, limited terminology content in Finnish affected results. However, the annotation bridges a path towards more comparable evaluation results of international reference terminologies such as SNOMED CT. The experiences can be used to inform a national level implementation decisions.
NoTeb: NORDIC exploration of an early assessment framework in health care
Authors: Kvaerner Kari Jorunn , Støme Linn N.
Published: March 2019

Nordic Test Beds (NoTeB) is a Nordic Innovation funded project to strengthen Nordic health care cooperation. By joining Nordic university hospitals and innovation centers, its aim has been to provide a Nordic test bed cooperation ecosystem that includes templates and tools for early decisional support.

The objective of this study was to describe how the partners in the Nordic collaboration developed and agreed upon an early assessment framework in health care. The framework was also presented as a user guide with the aim of providing advisory guidelines accessible to health care institutions to support early assessment of health innovation. A co-creation process comprising all collaborating Nordic partners initiated by a workshop, sharing current practice and aligning needs and content of for a decision support tool.

Large Nordic variation in value assessment approaches were found. For the decision-making tools, two important features were emphasized; the need for a decision support rather than a decision-making tool and that the tool should be based on valid measures; HTA- methodology. For the user guide, it was emphasized that it should be easily available in an easy-to-read report format.

In conclusion, NoTeB was successful in uniting Nordic countries in a common objective to develop a decision-making tool and a user guide to assess health innovations. Although the tools and the guide are still to be tested, this is a first step in developing a standardized tool for innovation assessment among the Nordic countries.

Published: March 2019

Recently, research and development in the field of drug delivery systems (DDS) facilitating site-specific therapy has reached significant progression. DDS based on polymer micelles, coated micro- and nanoparticles, and various prodrug systems including water-soluble polymer have been prepared and extensively studied as novel drugs designed for cancer chemotherapy and brain delivery. Since polymers are going to be used in human, this study has the interest of testing two types of polymer, polyimides (PI) and polyphenylenevinylene (PPV) on neuronal cells. The objective of this study was to determine the possible neurotoxicity and potential neuroprotective effects of PI and PPV towards SH-SY5Y neuronal cells challenged by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as an oxidant. Cells were pretreated with either PI or PPV for 1 hour followed by incubation for 24 hour with 100 µM of H2O2. MTS assay was used to assess cell viability. Results show that PI and PPV are not harmful within the concentration up to 10 µM and 100 µM, respectively. However, PI and PPV do not protect neuronal cells against toxicity induced by H2O2 or further up the cell death.

Still having a conflict potential? German and Hungarian toponyms in the Czech and Slovak national corpora texts
Authors: David Jaroslav , Klemensová Tereza
Published: March 2019

The paper focuses on German forms of place names in Czechia and Slovakia, and Hungarian forms of place names in Slovakia, especially on their revitalization and perception after 1989. This concerns their thematization, which is illustrated on the Czech National Corpus and the Slovak National Corpus materials, and on the 1990s discussions about their restoration. German place-name forms are not considered to be a crucial political topic these days; however, Hungarian forms still represent a conflict potential. German forms in Czechia are only thematized in poetry and fiction books, in order to evoke lasting time and the complicated modern Czech history. On the other hand, they are predominantly used in trade names as a marketing tool aimed at German (localization function) and Czech customers (allusive function). In Slovakia, Hungarian forms are not used in marketing and are not thematized in fiction as a positive value connected with the national history.

Published: March 2019

Dinding candi-candi Hindu dan Buddha di Jawa, sering ditemukan pahatan ragam hias sulur tumbuhan teratai yang tumbuh dari bonggol atau guci bergelung-gelung. Pada masa Islam awal, eksistensi ragam hias ini tetap bertahan. Berdasarkan kitab-kitab Purana Hindu, terdapat penjelasan mengenai konsep pembentangan alam semesta yang diwujudkan dalam bentuk gulungan teratai. Sementara itu, dari naskah lama milik para Wali, meskipun terbatas dalam lingkup tasawuf Tarekat Syaththariyah terdapat penjelasan mengenai teratai dengan nama bunga tunjung. Artikel ini membahas tentang konsep penciptaan karya seni berdasarkan teori adaptasi oleh Linda Hutcheon dalam bukunya: A Theory of Adaptation. Pembahasan lebih ditekankan pada aspek-aspek estetis visual yang terdapat di candi Lara Jonggrang Prambanan di Kalasan Yogyakarta, Candi Surowono di Kediri Jawa Timur dan makam Sunan Drajat di Lamongan Jawa Timur. Ragam hias tersebut, yang konsep penciptaannya diadaptasi dari kitab-kitab purana Hindu, maka pada masa Islam awal diyakini mengikuti prosedur teori tersebut, begitu juga pada masa berikutnya, tetapi makna filosofisnya mungkin kurang begitu dikenal. Kata kunci: ragam hias, sulur gelung, padmamūla, tunjung, etnik The Existance of Ornament of Lotus Tendrils. The walls of Hindu and Buddhist temples in Java are often found in the carved ornament of lotus plants that is grown from tubers or urns. In early period of Islam in Java, the existence of this decorative variety remained. Based on the books of the Hindu Purana, there is an explanation of the concept of the the universe creations embodied in the form of lotus scrolls. Meanwhile, from the old manuscripts belonging to the Wali, although limited in the scope of Sufism of the Tarekat Syaththariyah there is an explanation of the lotus with the name of the Tunjung flower. This article discusses the concept of creating works of art based on the theory of adaptation by Linda Hutcheon in his book: A Theory of Adaptation. The discussion is more emphasized on the visual aesthetic aspects contained in Lara Jonggrang Prambanan temple in Kalasan Yogyakarta, Surowono Temple in Kediri East Java and Sunan Drajat tomb in Lamongan, East Java. The ornamental variety, whose concept of creation was adapted from Purana books of Hindu, was in early Islam believed to follow the theoretical procedures, as well as in later times, but the philosophical meaning may be less well known. Keywords: ornament, sulur gelung, padmamūla, tunjung, ethnic

'Ora Minggir Tabrak' Electronic Dance Music (EDM), a Montage of The Time-Image
Authors: Aryandari Citra
Published: March 2019

Electronic Dance Music (EDM) is a music genre which has been perceived in negative way because closely related to night life in which alcoholic drinks and illegal drugs. The beatings of the rhythm presented can arouse a desire to shake the body, giving instant pleasure to escape from the weariness of life. Although it could be said that this music genre is able to help the listeners to forget “the problems” of life, however, it is very rarely that the academic circle looked into this music genre and make it as a subject of interesting studies. This article is written out of subjective observations in social sphere on subjects containing a lot of secrecies and initially considered as a taboo to be discussed. The existence of EDM in line with the technological developments as montage of the time-image related with complexity of social relations, attempting to embark on a new identity in power, politics, and ideological trappings. The phenomenon comes into sight specifically in the song of “Ora Minggir Tabrak”,literally means if you get on my way I will hit you, a soundtrack of Ada Apa Dengan Cinta 2feature film. And it obviously could be seen in talent hunting for EDM musicians program broadcast by Net TV (the ReMix), and several other big events with internationally standard organized annually, such as DWP (Djakarta Warehouse Project); and Dreamfield at GWK Bali, which are worth-discussing amidst the hustle and bustle of music market in Indonesia.

Application of system of rice intensification (SRI) method has been considered as one of powerful efforts to increase the harvested yield by modifying the plant and itssurrounding environment. This study was aimed to determine the effect of different environment towards the response of rice varieties grown using SRI method. Two rice varieties, Batang Piaman and IR-42 were grown in District of Tanjuang Barulak (Regency of Tanah Datar) and District of Saniang Baka (Regency of Solok). Plant height and several yield parameters, such as productive tillers, panicle length, grain number per panicle, and yield per plot were assessed from both varieties and locations. Statistical analysis was conducted using randomized block design (RDB) and significance was further evaluatedusingDuncan’s New Multiple Range Test (DNMRT) with a p>0.05. Batang Pariaman appeared in taller performance than IR-42. Regarding the number of productive tiller, Batang Piaman resulted more productive tillers in Solok, while IR-42 was dominant in number of productive tiller compared to Batang Piaman in Tanah Datar. Unlike IR-42, Batang Piaman exhibited longer panicle, more grain amounts per panicle, and higher yield per plot than IR-42 in both locations.

This study aims to determine the population and genetic parameters of population F3 result of selection pedigri red rice crosses Silopuk with Fatmawati Superior Varieties using Augmented Design. Silopuk cultivars with red and inlaid rice characteristics while Fatmawati varieties with characteristics of large grain size, high production, high grain number, early age and white rice. The crosses are expected to produce high, large grain size, large amount of grain, maturity and color of brown rice. This research was conducted August-November 2016 at UPT Farm Faculty of Agriculture Andalas University. The genetic material used is the seed of the generation of F3 (F3-5, F3-12, F3-55, F3-95, F3-118, F3-122) derivatives of red rice crosses Silopuk with Fatmawati and the seeds of the two elders as a comparison with the experimental method using Augmented Design. The results of this study indicate the F3 population character number of filled grains per panicle is higher than the two parents with a wide range and other characters are between the two parents. The phenotypic diversity of flowering age characters in the F3-122 family is (2,41) and 1000 weight of pithy grains in the family  F3-5 (2,31) ; F3-55(2,39) and  F3-95 (3,49)  relatively narrow.  However, heritability in the broadest sense and genetic variability for all characters ranges from moderate to high and narrow to broad. Estimated genetic progress with 5% intensity in F3 population has high criteria for all characters (age of flowering, harvest age, plant height, stem length, total tillers, number of productive tillers, total grain / panicle, percentage of filled grains / panicle , total grain weight / clump and weight of filled grain / clump) except panicle length characters and 1000 grain weight of filled grains. Differential selection of population F3 with 10% selection intensity based on 1000 grain weight of pith grain, plant height and total grain weight per hill obtained 31 selected individuals. Selected individuals will be forwarded to the F4 generation

Authors: Rusmin Devi
Published: March 2019

Maintaining the availability of high quality of seed on-time is one of the major problems in the production of large white ginger seed rhizomes (LWG). LWG seeds cannot be stored for a long period of time because it is easily wrinkled and sprouted during the storage. This study aimed to understand the effect of PBZ treatment time and concentration on the quality of LWG seeds during the storage. This study used a randomized square experimental design with three replications. The main plot is the time of application of paclobutrazol: 1) 4 months after planting (MAP) and 2)  5 MAP, and as subplots are five levels of PBZ concentration : 0, 100, 200, 300 and 4 00 ppm. The results showed the treatment of PBZ 400 ppm at 4 and 5 MAP was the best concentration in increasing the shelf life of LWG seeds: growth speed (4.8% / etmal ), seedling height (60.38 cm) and dry weight of seedlings (1.51 g) after stored for 4 months compared with no PBZ treatment.
