Authors: Ristic Vladimir , Milankov Vukadin , Vranjes Miodrag , Obradovic Mirko , Bjelobrk Mile
Published: October 2021

Introduction. The aim of the study was to report surgical treatment results
of complete patellar tendon ruptures reconstructed by different surgical
procedures. Material and Methods. This study included 35 patients, 26 males
and 9 females, with an average age of 39 (range, 16 - 66) years. Seventeen
patients had the risk factors (48.6%), including 11 with prior surgeries of
the same knee: 7 reconstructions of the anterior cruciate ligament, 3 total
knee replacement surgeries, and one intramedullary nailing. In 27 patients
(77.1%), the surgery was performed during the first seven days after the
injury. The following procedures were applied: patellar tendon repair with
suture anchors in 5 cases; 13 transpatellar suturing through transpatellar
tunnels; additional strengthening with wires and screws was performed in 7
patients; 7 reconstructions with bone-tendon-bone allograft taken from the
bone bank, and in 3 patients contralateral bonetendon-bone autografts were
used. Results and Discussion. The average Lysholm score was 86.1 (range, 27
- 100). Excellent results were found in 19 cases (54.2%), satisfactory in 10
(28.6%), and unsatisfactory in 6 patients (17.1%) who had chronic diseases
and total knee replacement. The patients with timely diagnosis had
significantly better results (90.1) than patients with chronic tendon
injuries (72.6 points). Conclusion. Good results of acute rupture
reconstruction are achieved by transosseous techniques or suture anchors.
The surgery is much more complicated in neglected and chronic ruptures, and
the results are worse. Surgical procedures, such as the patellar tendon
reconstruction by bone-tendon-bone graft, additionally strengthened with
wiring and screws, contribute to stable fixation, enable early
rehabilitation, and prevent stiffness and muscle weakness.

Published: October 2021

Introduction. Voice disorders in primary school teachers, as vocal
professionals, are very common and often an inevitable phenomenon, which is
unfortunately given little importance. Primary school teachers are at
greater risk compared to other educators, because they rarely have
opportunities for vocal rest during their working hours. The aim of this
paper was to determine the acoustic voice characteristics of primary school
teachers and their subjective experience of voice quality. Material and
Methods. The study included 30 female teachers employed at the elementary
school ?Branko Radicevic? in Banja Luka. For the purpose of objective
acoustic analysis, the computer program Praat was used; for the purposes of
subjective acoustic analysis the Grade, Instability, Roughness, Breathiness,
Asthenia, and Strain scale was used, whereas the Voice Handicap Index was
used for voice self-assessment. The effects of work experience, number of
classes per week, bad habits and chronic diseases on voice quality were
analyzed. Results. Statistically significant differences were found only in
subjects who reported bad habits in the domain of subjective acoustic
analysis, where pathological values were obtained for subscales grade,
instability, roughness, breathiness and strain (p < 0.05), whereas the
second statistically significant difference was observed in participants
without previous history of chronic diseases, and who had significantly
better speech intensity and lower harmonicsto-noise ratio (p < 0.05).
Conclusion. In our research, objective and subjective acoustic analysis
showed that about half of primary school teachers have voice disorders.
Unhealthy habits and chronic diseases have a greater impact on the quality
of voice of the primary school teachers than the length of work
experience and the number of classes per week.
Combinatorial pharmacogenomic test for successful antidepressant treatment of a major depressive disorder
Authors: Vojvodic Sladjana , Katona Gabor , Sarac Miroslav
Published: October 2021

Introduction. The combinatorial pharmacogenomic test has shown the potential
to predict antidepressant response, tolerability, selection, and dosage in
the treatment of a major depressive disorder. A case of successful
management of antidepressant therapy adjustment is reported by using the
combinatorial pharmacogenomic test. Case Report. A 53-year old man, severely
disabled due to a rare genetic disease, Usher syndrome type 3, was treated
with numerous antidepressants. However, episodes of major depression
recurred, along with frequent suicidal thoughts. A combinatorial
pharmacogenomic test was considered to design a potentially effective
antidepressant therapy. Conclusion. According to the results of the
combinatorial pharmacogenomic test, the patient constantly received
inadequate antidepressant therapy, which did not lead to an improvement of
depression due to moderate gene-drug interaction. The patient was prescribed
nortriptyline, which proved to be one of the few most adequate according to
the test. He showed improvement with subjectively more tolerable depression
without suicidal thoughts and episodes of major depression. This case showed
that the combinatorial pharmacogenomic testing may contribute to better
selection of antidepressant therapy.

Authors: Acar Yasemin Bahar , Abuhan Ece , Boyacıyan Rudi , Özdemir Fulya
Published: October 2021

Objectives

To evaluate the attractiveness of changes in vertical position of maxillary canines in frontal smiles of different facial types, and to evaluate the esthetic perceptions of orthodontists and laypeople, and the influence of facial type on these perceptions.

Materials and Methods

Three adult female volunteers were selected as individuals with normal, vertical, and horizontal growth patterns. Frontal posed smile photographs were digitally altered by adjusting vertical positions of the maxillary canines above, below, or coincident with the incisal line in increments of 0.5 mm within a range of 1 mm of extrusion and intrusion. For assessment, a web-based survey was formed with 18 images (six images for each model). A scale was present underneath each image, graded from 0 to 10 (0: unattractive; 10: the most attractive). Images were rated by 233 participants (105 orthodontists; 128 laypeople).

Results

Orthodontists scored 0-mm images significantly as the highest in all groups. Laypeople scored significantly higher for −0.5 mm images regardless of facial type. The lowest scored images were −1 mm (except for horizontal pattern) and +1 mm images. Mean values of scores given by men were higher (P < .05).

Conclusions

Orthodontists favored ideal dental alignment and preferred the incisal edges of central and canine teeth to be at the same level. Laypeople preferred a smoother smile arc than orthodontists and found harmony with the soft tissue more attractive. Facial type affected perceptions of the vertical changes of maxillary canines.

Authors: Singh Pushpa , Adderley Nicola J , Hazlehurst Jonathan , Price Malcolm , Tahrani Abd A , Nirantharakumar Krishnarajah , Bellary Srikanth
Published: October 2021

Background

Remission of type 2 diabetes following bariatric
surgery is well established but identifying patients who will go into remission
is challenging.

Purpose

To perform a systematic review of currently available
diabetes remission prediction models, compare their performance, and evaluate
their applicability in clinical settings.

Data sources

A comprehensive systematic literature search of
MEDLINE, MEDLINE In-Process & Other Non-Indexed Citations, EMBASE and
Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials was undertaken. The search was
restricted to studies published in the last 15 years and in the English
language.

Study selection and data extraction

All studies
developing or validating a prediction model for diabetes remission in adults
after bariatric surgery were included. The search identified 4165 references of
which 38 were included for data extraction. We identified 16 model development
and 22 validation studies.

Data synthesis

Of the 16 model development
studies, 11 developed scoring systems and 5 proposed logistic regression models.
In model development studies, 10 models showed excellent discrimination with area
under curve (AUC) ≥ 0.800. Two of
these prediction models, ABCD and DiaRem, were widely externally validated in
different populations, a variety of bariatric procedures, and for both short-
and long-term diabetes remission. Newer prediction models showed excellent
discrimination in test studies, but external validation was limited.

Limitations
and Conclusions

Amongst the prediction models identified, the ABCD
and DiaRem models were the most widely validated and showed acceptable to
excellent discrimination. More studies validating newer models and focusing on
long-term diabetes remission are needed.
Moment-Curvature and Effective Section Stiffness of Reinforced Concrete Beams
Authors: FOROUGHİ Saeid , YÜKSEL Bahadır
Published: October 2021

In determining the seismic performance of reinforced concrete (RC) structures in national and international earthquake regulations, it is desired to use effective section stiffness of the cracked section in RC structural elements during the design phase. Although the effective section stiffness of the cracked section is not constant, it depends on parameters such as the concrete strength and reinforcement ratio. In this study, RC beam models with different concrete strength, tensile and compression reinforcement ratios were designed to investigate nonlinear moment-curvature relationships and effective stiffness coefficients. Analytically investigated parameters were calculated from TBEC (2018), ACI318 (2014), ASCE/SEI41 (2017), Eurocode2 (2004) and Eurocode8 (2004, 2005) regulations and moment-curvature relationships. The effective section stiffness coefficient obtained from the analyses were compared with the effective section stiffness coefficient given for RC members in different regulations. The results obtained at the end were examined by comparing them according to different parameters and models. For constant concrete strength and tensile reinforcement ratio in RC beams, with increasing compression reinforcement ratio, effective stiffness coefficient values increase. In RC beams with constant compression and tensile strength ratio, effective stiffness coefficient values increase with increasing concrete strength. The compression reinforcement ratio has been proved to be effective on the maximum moment bearing capacity of the RC beams, effective flexural stiffness and effective stiffness coefficient and ductility of the sections.
Laser-induced forward transfer as a potential alternative to pick-and-place technology when assembling semiconductor components
Authors: Springer Matthias , Düsing Jan , Koch Jürgen , Jäschke Peter , Kaierle Stefan , Overmeyer Ludger
Published: October 2021

Fabrication technologies for the semiconductor industry have enabled ever smaller electronic components but now face a fundamental limit in their assembly. As the components get smaller and smaller, the difficulty of assembly increases. At the same time, the number of components per circuit board area is growing, as is the case with LED displays. This in turn calls for an increasing assembly rate. The conventional pick-and-place method can handle approximately 25–30 thousand dies per hour but has increasing limitations when component dimensions are reduced below 150 μm edge length. Laser-induced forward transfer is used as a potential alternative for an assembly of semiconductor components. This technique allows to transfer semiconductor components with an edge length of less than 150 μm to a target substrate. The current process is contactless, damage-free, and has sufficient placement accuracy. If this process is combined with the property of high-pulse repetition rates, it is possible to significantly increase the assembly rate of semiconductor components compared to the current limitations. The aim of this study is to characterize the flight properties of silicon semiconductor components of various dimensions in a laser-driven transfer process using optical imaging methods. This method allows to analyze velocity, the direction of fall, and acceleration of falling components. The results can be used to analyze the transfer behavior of various component sizes and to make estimates of the stability of the transfer process.

Mutual funds are designed to raise investment funds. The objectives of this study are: to determine the performance of mutual funds on the LQ-45 index is higher than the performance of equity funds in the Indonesian capital market and to measure the level of efficiency in the capital market using CAPM modeling and using Net Active Value (NAV) data per year for the 2015 period. -2019. To determine whether a mutual fund is good or bad, it is not measured by how much the return has been generated or by how big or small the risk of fluctuation is, but this is seen from how much the mutual fund performs with its reference index. If the performance of index mutual funds is better or the performance of stock mutual funds is lower overall, the capital market can be said to be efficient. The results of this study indicate that the performance of the LQ-45 index mutual funds is smaller than the performance of the more superior stock mutual funds above. So it can be concluded that the Indonesian capital market is an inefficient Indonesian capital market.

The purpose of this research is to find out whether there is an effect of Capital Adequacy Ratio and Islamic Social Responsibility on Return On Assets both in terms of partial and simultaneous testing. Collecting data in this study is to use secondary data from the financial statements of Islamic companies listed on the Jakarta Islamic Index. By using two blades of analysis, namely simple linear regression analysis and multiple linear regression analysis. Based on the results of simple regression analysis, it is known that partially CAR affects ROA and partially ISR affects ROA. Then simultaneously CAR and ISR influence ROA. Therefore, the role of profit in the company has an influential role, because the main objective of the company's operations is to achieve maximum profit. Information on profit achievement is not only useful for external parties such as the public as users of Islamic financial institutions as service companies and internal parties as parties who carry out or run the company in order to determine steps how to run the company to make a profit.
Investigating the Translation Strategies Used in Rendering Cultural Bound Expressions in Barghouthy’s Memoire I Was Born There, I Was Born Her
Authors: S. El Haj Ahmed Mohammed , A. Mansour Rola
Published: October 2021

This study investigates the translation strategies used in translating 25 cultural references and expressions in Mourid Barghouty’s autobiography ‘I Was Born There, I Was Born Here’ (2009) from Arabic into English. The results of this research may assist the trainee translators to improve their understanding of the effect of culture on the quality of the translation. The researchers adopt two theoretical models: Venuti’s domestication and foreignization (1998) and Ivir’s (1987) procedures for the translation of cultural references. This study tries to find out to what extent the translation has accounted to render the original cultural bound expressions maintaining their meaning in the target language. The researchers adopt a qualitative research since the data analysis is based on analytical and descriptive approaches. After analyzing the selected data, the researchers find out that the domestication strategy has been the most frequently-used strategy at (52%), and foreignization comes second at (48%). The procedure of substitution has been used the most (seven times), followed by literal translation and borrowing with the same number of times (six times), then defining the elements of culture (four times), then omission (twice). Lexical creation and addition have not been used at all. The findings also show that the translator has managed to capture the intended meaning sought by the original author in most extracts. The researchers recommend that translators of culture-bound expressions should be aware of the two involved cultures. This helps them to determine the cultural context in which a text takes place, so they can achieve the closest equivalents in the target text.

Authors: PAYLOZYAN ZHANNA , DAVTYAN S.E.
Published: October 2021

The participation of the patient’s family with aphasia in the process of speech therapy is a necessary and essential prerequisite for speech recovery. However, our society is not sufficiently informed about aphasia. As a result, the family members of a person with aphasia often do not know how to deal with a relative who has lost his/her speech. As a consequence, there is frequently a misunderstanding regarding the patient’s activities and behavior. The essential content of the speech therapy consultancy with the family members of the patients with aphasia is introduced in the article. The authors stress the importance of providing information to the family members of people with aphasia, regarding aphasia symptoms and its overcoming features. Particularly it is mentioned, that aphasia is not an indication of a mental disorder or dementia. In case of aphasia, the social and speech isolation of a person who has lost his/her speech, is troubling. In the article, recommendations aimed at the establishment of contact between the patient and his/her relatives, as well as increasing the effectiveness of speech restoration process are introduced. Following the speech therapy recommendations will help the relatives to avoid common mistakes in the process of communication, which cause psychological harm. Taking into account the fact, that the speech restoration is a long-lasting process, the article also provides examples of assignments and exercises for supporting the speech restoration at home. The essential goal of speech therapy consultation is the establishment of speech-communication environment, which supports the restoration of speech and communication of patients with aphasia.
