Published: July 2019

Introduction

Tonsillectomy is one of the most common pediatric surgeries in the world and pain control following tonsillectomy is very important.

Objective

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of acupressure on the amount of pain following tonsillectomy in children.

Method

One hundred and forty-four children aged 5–12 years old were assigned into one of three groups: interventions, control and placebo. In the intervention group, acupressure was applied at three acupoints and in the placebo group, sham acupressure was applied. In the control group routine care only was applied.

Results

There was a significant difference between an average of changes in pain score before and after the intervention during the 3 time periods after the tonsillectomy operation in the acupressure group (p = 0.002).

Conclusion

The results showed that acupressure had a positive effect on pain reduction after tonsillectomy in children in the intervention group.
A microtypological survey of noun classes in Kwa
Authors: Konoshenko Maria , Shavarina Dasha
Published: July 2019

This paper provides an overview of noun class systems in a sample of 20 Kwa languages. It focuses on the synchronic productivity of noun classification in Kwa as opposed to the full-fledged class system assumed for Proto-Kwa and for the general “Niger-Congo prototype” (Good, Jeff. 2012. How to become a “Kwa” noun.”Morphology22(2). 293–335; Creissels, Denis. Forthcoming. Noun class systems in Atlantic languages. To appear. In Friederike Lüpke (ed.),The Oxford guide to the Atlantic languages of West Africa. Oxford: Oxford University Press). The productivity of class morphology on nouns is studied by exploring class marker alternations as exponents of other grammatical phenomena: the formation of the plural, diminutive derivation and nominalization. We also discuss class indexation on nominal modifiers (adjectives, numerals, demonstratives and indefinite markers) as well as subject and object pronominals. We demonstrate that Kwa languages tend to follow the typological tendencies pertaining to class marking on nouns and class indexation, e.g. the Agreement hierarchy (Corbett, Greville G. 1979. The agreement hierarchy.Journal of Linguistics15. 203–224), as established for world languages in general and Niger-Congo family in particular (Good, Jeff. 2012. How to become a “Kwa” noun.”Morphology22(2). 293–335). However, some intriguing discrepancies, e.g. different patterning of indexation on adjectives vs. on numerals in Kwa as opposed to some other Niger-Congo branches, were also attested. In diachronic perspective, our findings suggest that noun class systems are flexible as they show high intragenetic variation and are easily degradable, but they almost never disappear completely.

Published: July 2019

Background

Sjögren’s syndrome (SS) is an autoimmune connective tissue disease affecting the body’s moisture-producing glands. Some studies have linked SS to adverse maternal/neonatal outcomes, but sample sizes have tended to be small, with few outcomes examined. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of SS on pregnancy outcomes for mother and neonate using a large dataset.

Methods

We carried out a retrospective cohort study of women who delivered between 1999 and 2014 using data from the Nationwide Inpatient Sample from the United States. SS categorization is based on ICD-9 coding. Baseline characteristics were compared in both groups and multivariate logistic regression was used to compare maternal and fetal outcomes of pregnancies in women with and without SS.

Results

The prevalence of SS in our population was 1.34 cases/10,000 births, with the rate increasing over the study period. Women with SS tended to be older, Caucasian and to have pre-existing comorbidities. Births to women with SS were at greater risk of pre-eclampsia [odds ratio (OR) 1.63, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.34–1.99]; premature rupture of membranes (OR 1.28, 95% CI 1.04–1.57); preterm delivery (OR 1.56, 95% CI 1.34–1.81); cesarean delivery (OR 1.29, 95% CI 1.17–1.41); and venous thromboembolic events (OR 3.71, 95% CI 2.57–5.35). Infants of women with SS were more likely to have intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) (OR 3.00, 95% CI 2.46–3.65); and congenital malformations (OR 3.26, 95% CI 2.30–4.62).

Conclusion

SS is a high-risk pregnancy condition associated with significant comorbidities and adverse maternal and fetal outcomes. Women with SS may benefit from increased surveillance during their pregnancies.

Published: July 2019

The present study was focused on the preparation and characterization of different topical oil in water emulsions based on natural ingredients such as collagen hydrolysate and vegetable oils mixtures. As oil phases, mixtures of coconut, almond, jojoba, avocado oils (in different ratios) were used while the water phase consisted in lavender water. As emulsifier, a plant based product containing glyceryl stearate and potassium stearate was incorporated (in the concentration range 4–5 %), while as rheology modifier xanthan gum was used (in the concentration range 0.2–1 %). As preservatives, Cosgard (containing benzyl alcohol, salicylic acid, glycerol, ascorbic acid) and mixtures of two essential oils (lemon and lavender) were selected. The designed formulations were assessed by means of their physico-chemical properties (pH, viscosity, thixotropic behavior), optical microscopy analysis and sensorial characteristics. The obtained emulsions were found to present pseudoplastic and thixotropic behaviors, adequate for cosmetic skin care product formulations.

Published: July 2019

Background

To be able to prevent morbid obesity in the long-term, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is one of the most effective surgical interventions. However, leakage and bleeding from the stapler line are significant complications. The aim of this study was to determine the role of the levels of plasma presepsin in the detection of stapler leakage.

Materials and methods

The study included 300 patients with LSG due to morbid obesity and 40 control subjects. Before any medical treatment was applied, blood samples were taken from patients at 12 h preoperatively and on days 1, 3, and 5 postoperatively. Evaluation was made of plasma presepsin levels, white blood count (WBC), C-reactive protein (CRP) and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), in all patients with sleeve gastrectomy line leakage.

Results

The WBC, CRP, NLR and presepsin values measured on days 1, 3 and 5 postoperatively were determined to be higher in patients with leakage compared to those without. The predictive value of presepsin (p = 0.001), CRP (p = 0.001) and NLR (p = 0.001) was determined to be statistically significantly higher than that of WBC (p = 0.01).

Conclusion

The results of the study suggest that presepsin levels could have a role in the detection and follow-up of stapler line leaks after LSG. Elevated presepsin levels, on postoperative day 1 in particular, could have a key role in the early detection of possible complications which are not seen clinically.

Published: July 2019

Objective

Blood collection tubes (BCTs) related interferences in test results can adversely influence on patient outcomes. We compared test results of samples in BD (Becton-Dickinson, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA) Vacutainer Serum Separator Tubes (SST), BD Vacutainer® Barricor™ Plasma BCTs (Barricor™) and BD Vacutainer® Rapid Serum Tube (RST).

Materials and methods

Thirty-two samples were obtained from patients after the hemodialysis were included in this study. Eight routine clinical chemistry parameters (AST, creatinin, urea, PTH, glucose, LDH, K, calcium) were measured on Roche Cobas Analyzer (Roche Diagnostics, North America). The results of samples obtained from RST and Barricor™ were compared with SST as reference tubes.

Results

Results of Glucose, K, Urea, PTH from the SST and Barricor™ were statistically significantly different (p = 0.017, p < 0.001, p = 0.011, p < 0.001, respectively). In addition, results of PTH, LDH from SST and RST were significantly different (p < 0.001, p = 0.019). However, statistical significance of test results was not clinically significant for the biochemical parameters.

Conclusion

Working with Barricor™ may provide not just a fast, clean, high-quality plasma samples, safety results, but also time and cost-effectivity. Therefore, these types of tubes, which are less costly than other BCTs, may be preferred to obtain plasma.

Authors: Vogler Arnd , Hischa Birgit , Stempfhuber Sabine
Published: July 2019

The salt [NHEt3][Re(I)(quinaldate)(CO)3Cl] was obtained by the reaction of Re(CO)5Cl with quinaldic acid and triethylamine in toluene. The crystal structure analysis of this salt revealed the presence of the complex anion [Re(quinaldate)(CO)3Cl]−, with the d
6 Re(I) metal center in a pseudo-octahedral environment. The electronic spectra in absorption and emission exhibit bands which are attributed to quinaldate IL and CT transitions at comparable energies. The longest-wavelength emission originates from a Re(I) to quinaldate MLCT triplet, which can be quenched in solution by oxygen or triethylamine.
The Important Thermal and Kinetic Properties of Crystals and Their Calculations with the Use of the Gibbs Potentials
Authors: Budzhak Ya.S. , Druzhinin A.O. , Waclawski T.K.
Published: July 2019

In this work, the important thermal and kinetic characteristics of crystals are calculated. It was shown that in a state of thermodynamic equilibrium, the thermal properties of crystals are additive, and their value for an entire crystal is calculated by summing the values of thermal properties of the crystal lattice and the properties of the gas of free charge carriers in a crystal. These properties are fully characterized by the appropriate Gibbs potentials. In this work it was also shown that when the electric field E and temperature gradient ΔrT are created in a crystal, and this crystal is placed in the magnetic field with the magnetic inductance vector B, then there the electric charge and heat transport processes begin to exist in the crystal. These processes are described by the generalized electric and heat conduction equations. The tensors and the scalar coefficients in these equations – these are the kinetic properties of the crystals. They describe the nature of their actual properties and they have widespread and pragmatic applications in modern solid-state electronics

Published: July 2019

The article‘s topic is relevant, because the importance of trade credit constantly increases. Trade credit can be one of the most important preconditions for the competitiveness of the enterprise and business development. There is a lack of scientific sources in the field of estimation of trade credit risk – there is no any particular, simple to use methodology to assess company trade credit risk.

The aim of the article – to compose a methodology of assessment company trade credit risk for Lithuanian small and medium enterprises.

In the article, following scientific sources approach, the advantages, risks and key financial and non-financial trade credit risk factors were identified. Based on the scientific sources and expert evaluation, the methodology of company trade credit risk assessment was created. The methodology is based on 10 key indicators identified by the experts. 12 financial ratios and non-financial indicators are being used – current and quick ratio, gross and net profit margin, Altman Z model, debt ratio, stock and debtors turnover, enterprise age, reputation, number and dynamics of employees. The indicators have been scored. The highest possible score is 100.

The research approves that the methodology suits to be used in practice. It is simple, reliable, cheap, non-time consuming; it is easy to collect data, the data is being formalized and quantified. The disadvantages of methodology – the data is not always reliable and some ratios are of different importance in the different economic sectors. The methodology should be modified to adapt for the different sectors of business.

Actions to detect fraud in financial statements
Authors: Kanapickienė Rasa , Grundienė Živilė
Published: July 2019

The information provided in financial statements should be neutral and reliable thus enabling the users of the financial statements to make financially legitimate decisions regarding the perspectives of the company’s development. Therefore the reference documents regulating the composition of financial statements determine that the distortion of the assets, income, costs or other data is strictly forbidden. Nevertheless, fraud in financial statements is a relatively frequent phenomenon in business practice. Hence, in order to detect frauds effectively it is essential to systematize the actions of fraud detection.

The aim of the research is to explore the actions of detecting fraud in financial statements, systematize them and evaluate the possibilities of their application in practice.

The paper divides the actions of detecting fraud in financial statements into methods and procedures. The methods of detecting fraud in financial statements are classified regarding two aspects: 1) consistency of fraud investigation and 2) applied methods of investigation. According to the consistency of the research, the following methods are distinguished: a) gathering of fraud evidence; b) analysis of fraud risk factors and c) a detailed investigation. To implement each of the methods appropriate procedures are selected. In order to gather the evidence on fraud, it is expedient to apply the following procedures: the use of external (complainant) systems (police reports), secret operations, senior management audit, gathering of unofficial information, application of legal recommendations, confession. While carrying out the analysis of fraud risk factors it is expedient to apply inquiry, monitoring, and analytical procedures. The procedures of fraud detection in the detailed investigation should be classified as audit proofs by distinguishing the variants of these procedures that are more typical of the monitoring institutions. Experts positively evaluated the possibilities to practically apply the analysed actions of detecting fraud in financial statements.

This study describes the strategy of the propaganda of the Ahmadiyah Indonesia (JAI) congregation in facing the resistance of Muslims to create a positive self-image in the community. Using ethnographic studies with da'wah strategy theory, and the dramaturgy theory of this research was carried out in the villages of Tenjowaringin Salawu, and Cipakat Singaparna Tasikmalaya, West Java. The results revealed that the relationship between JAI and the community, especially non-Ahmadiyya Muslims in the villages of Tenjowaringin Salawu and in the Cipakat Village, Tasikmalaya, was quite good. Although there were several explosions caused by provocations from groups outside the community of the two villages, this did not make JAI far from the surrounding community. The propaganda strategy carried out by the Ahmadiyya community was carried out in three activities, namely communication through Rabtah activities, cooperation through charity wikari, and education through the Tarbiyah / School institution. The application of da'wah strategies carried out by JAI was able to shape their positive self-image in the community in accordance with the expectations of the congregation and the management of the Ahmadiyya organization. AbstrakPenelitian ini menggambarkan strategi dakwah jemaat Ahmadiyah Indonesia (JAI) dalam menghadapi resistensi umat Islam untuk menciptakan citra  diri  positif  di  masyarakat.

Microplastics (MP) are omnipresent in ecosystems. Some studies focus on MP fates and their toxicology on biota for the last ten years in the world. In the present study, MP was identified in bivalve (Perna Viridis) collected in Vietnam for the first time using micro-Fourier transform infrared Microspectroscopy (µFTIR) technique. Organisms were digested by KOH 10% solution then separated using KI 50% solution. The average concentration evaluated at 2.60 MP/individual and 0.29 MP/gram of wet tissue. Six types of MP were found with a high proportion of polypropylene (PP) (31%) and polyester (23%). MP characterizations were also observed which bring to much important information such as the source of MP contamination in bivalve from Vietnam. Nevertheless, more work needs to be invested in the future such as on different species or environment compartments which permit to the global view of MP contamination in Vietnam.

Authors: BUDAKLI CARPICI Emine , CELIK Necmettin
Published: July 2019

This research sought to determine the correlations between grain yield and yield components and to measure the direct and indirect effects of yield components on grain yield in barley by using correlation coefficient and path analysis methods, respectively. This research was conducted with ten varieties of two-rowed barley under the ecological conditions of the coastal zone of northwest Turkey during the years 2003-2004. Agronomic traits such as grain yield, plant height, spike length, kernel number per spike, kernel weight per spike, spike number per m2, harvest index and 1000-kernel weight were determined. The data from two years were combined. Correlation analyses indicated that the grain yield was positively and significantly associated with all the yield components except 1000-kernel weight. The highest correlation coefficients were found between grain yield and kernel number per spike (r = +0.406), and between grain yield and harvest index (r = +0.474). Results of path analyses indicated that harvest index had the greatest direct effect (+0.7716) on grain yield followed by spike number per m2 (+0.3359) and kernel number per spike (+0.2081). Percentages of their direct effect were 71.97%, 48.47% and 28.22%, respectively. On the other hand, most of the indirect effects of yield components on grain yield were found to be significant and positive. Because of the significant effects of the harvest index, spike number per m2 and kernel number per spike on grain yield, they may be regarded as criteria for barley improvement and breeding programs.

Authors:   The Korean Society of Special Education, Shin Mikyung , Kim Woori
Published: July 2019

The purpose of this study was to perform a meta-analysis of the correlation between mathematical word problem solving and the phonological loop, the visuo-spatial sketchpad, and the central executive working memory. Articles published in English peer-reviewed journals from 1975 to 2018 were included. The participants consisted of kindergarten, elementary school, and middle school students. The current meta-analysis was based on the theoretical basis of the multi-component working memory model proposed by Baddeley (1998) regarding the phonological loop, visuo-spatial sketchpad, and the central executive working memory. A meta-analysis using R programs was conducted with a total of 19 articles included. The moderating effects of students’ disability, gender, grade, topics of mathematical word problem solving, and tasks of working memory were analyzed. The results show that the correlations between word problem solving and the phonological loop, the visuo-spatial sketchpad, or the central executive working memory were significant and moderate. Most moderating variables did not have a significant effect across all three working memory components. The only significant moderating variable that affects the magnitude of the relation between mathematical word problem solving and the central executive working memory was the topics of mathematical word problem solving (F = 70.90, p = .030). This correlation was significantly high in the case of mathematical problems involving subtracting whole numbers or adding, multiplying, and dividing fractions. Based on the findings, practical implications for understanding the cognitive and mathematical learning characteristics of individuals struggling with mathematics are discussed.

Green biogenic nanoparticles have medicinal applications. The aim of this study was to use silver nitrate solution to carry out plant-mediated synthesis of silver (Ag) nanoparticles (AgNPs) in aqueous extracts of Bistorta affinis and Malcolmia cabulica. The purpose of using the aqueous medium was for it to act as a reducing agent, as well as a capping agent. The synthesized AgNPs were confirmed through ultraviolet–visible (UV–vis) spectroscopy and analyzed through X-ray diffractometry (XRD), energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). It was observed from the AgNPs’ visual spectrum obtained from UV–vis spectroscopy that their surface plasmon resonance had a peak at 420 nm for B. affinis and at 430 nm for M. cabulica. SEM revealed spherical monodispersed nanoparticles with diameters ranging from 10 to 30 nm. The SEM results were confirmed by TEM analysis. The XRD showed the crystalline nature of the synthesized AgNPs. EDX confirmed the existence of silver in both types of synthesized AgNPs. Thermogravimetric and differential thermal analyses were performed. AgNPs showed significant cytotoxic effect of 84% against Artemia salina at a high concentration for B. affinis and 82% for M. cabulica. AgNPs showed good antioxidant and phytotoxic effects, while phytolectins were absent.
Engajados post-mortem: os translados dos marinheiros mortos pelos torpedeamentos durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial
Authors: Piovezan Adriane
Published: July 2019

Em 1960 é inaugurado no Rio de Janeiro o Monumento Nacional aos Mortos da Segunda Guerra Mundial. A comissão de repatriamento dos mortos desde 1953 buscava decidir o destino final dos restos mortais dos soldados caídos na Itália durante o conflito. A partir da construção de um monumento específico, a necessidade de privilegiar outras forças além da FEB (Força Expedicionária Brasileira) se torna essencial. O discurso de unidade nacional contra o inimigo comum numa guerra total pretendia que todas as forças fossem rememoradas no monumento. A Marinha de Guerra foi a arma que contabilizou as maiores perdas no conflito, mas sem enfrentamento direto e sem cadáveres a homenagem a esses mortos seria desproporcional na narrativa proposta pelo monumento. A solução foi trasladar 4 cadáveres de mortos representantes da Marinha do Brasil do Nordeste para o Rio de Janeiro. Com base na documentação de exumação dos cadáveres e de periódicos do período é possível perceber os conflitos dessa resolução que pretendia justificar um discurso e inseri-lo na narrativa de um monumento funerário.

CORRELATION BETWEEN CHEMOKINE RECEPTOR (CXCR4) EXPRESSION AND CLINICOPATHOLOGICAL FACTORS IN PATIENTS WITH PROSTATE CANCER
Authors: Arkawazi Lusan
Published: July 2019

Background 

Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Different studies with conatroversial outcomes tried to find a link between CXCR4 level and other clinicopathological characters. 

Objectives 

To analyze the correlation of CXCR4 with prostate-specific antigen, age of the patients and Gleason score.

Materials and Methods

This is a retrospective cross-sectional study using paraffin-embedded blocks of prostate cancer. For CXCR4 visualization, immunohistochemistry (IHC) based on staining method for demonstration of its level was used to score them according to the extent and the staining intensity of the nucleus as: 0 (no signals for tissue staining), 1 (when tissue extent and intensity for staining is weak), 2 (extent and intensity of tissue staining is moderate), and 3 (when tissue extent and intensity staining is strong).

Results

Age of the patients ranged from 58-88 years, with the P value of 0.874 between the age and IHC staining score. The prostate-specific antigen level ranged from 9-100, the result was non-significant P value of 0.938 between PSA level and IHC staining score. There was also no significant relation between the level of CXCR4 (IHC staining score) and the Gleason score P value of 0.206.

Conclusion

High CXCR4 expression couldn’t be related to the clinical parameters such as pretreatment PSA level, the age of the patients, and histopathological findings of prostate cancer using Gleason score.
