Authors: Sitanggang Firman Parulian , Ayusta I Made Dwija Putra , Suastari Ni Made Putri
Published: October 2021

Tumor Cerebellopontine Angle (CPA) merupakan jenis neoplasma terbanyak yang ditemukan di fossa posterior dengan angka kejadian sebesar 5-10% dari seluruh angka kejadian tumor intrakranial. Mayoritas tumor di CPA adalah schwannoma vestibular sebesar 70%-80%, diikuti meningioma 5-12% dan kista epidermoid 2-6%, serta tumor CPA lainnya, yang masing-masing menyumbang sekitar 1%. Angka kejadian tumor ganas atau tumor metastasis hanya 2% dari keseluruhan tumor CPA. Tumor CPA secara klinis tidak spesifik dan gejala yang muncul tidak terkait dengan sifat lesi itu sendiri, tetapi berhubungan dengan struktur neurovaskular atau struktur otak yang terlibat dengan lesi tersebut. Diagnosis mungkin sulit dibuat karena berbagai jenis sel dan asal tumor tersebut. Oleh karena tumor CPA yang berasal dari spektrum yang sangat luas sehingga menjadi tantangan dalam penegakkan diagnosis. Untuk dapat mencakup seluruh spektrum tumor yang berpotensi ditemukan di CPA, maka diperlukan pencitraan neuroimaging terkait yang perlu diketahui oleh ahli radiologi untuk membuat diagnosis yang relevan secara klinis. Melalui pencitraan radiologi tersebut akan dievaluasi lokasi asal dari tumor, bentuk dan margin, kepadatan, intensitas sinyal dan penyangatan kontras dalam menegakkan diagnosis pra operasi yang lebih akurat. Diagnosis dan tatalaksana tumor CPA diharapkan akan semakin baik, seiring dengan berkembangnya teknik imaging, teknik pembedahan mikro dan radiosurgery

Brendan Thomas has published an interesting paper that looks at author email addresses in the PubMed database of biomedical literature. Email addresses of first authors have been added to PubMed since 1996, and they can be retrieved via the standard web interface or automated software. This makes PubMed an excellent place to find the email address of an academic author, but also shows that PubMed is very vulnerable to email address harvesting.
PARTİ VE ŞEHİR: DEMOKRAT PARTİNİN EDİRNE’DE DOĞUŞU (1946-1950)
Authors: CEYLAN Okan
Published: October 2021

Demokrat Parti (DP) 1946 Genel Seçimlerinde Edirne İlinde başarılı olmuştur. Hatta, Edirne DP’nin Türkiye’de 63 vilayet içinde seçimi kazandığı 7 vilayetten biridir. Bu çalışma DP’nin Edirne’deki siyasi başarısını Edirne’nin 1920’li ve 1930’lu yıllardaki toplumsal ve iktisadi durumuna, İkinci Cihan Harbi Döneminde uygulanan savaş ekonomisine ve Tek Parti Yönetiminin Trakya’daki bürokratik denetimsizliğine dayandırmaktadır. Bu bağlamda, Edirne Yunanistan ve Bulgaristan ile sınırı olduğu için Edirne’nin toplumsal, siyasal ve iktisadi yaşamı iç ve dış politikanın kesişimde bulunmaktadır. Bu açıdan da Edirne çok partili yaşama geçiş sürecinde Türkiye’nin geri kalanından farklı bir örnektir. Bir diğer ifade ile Edirne Türkiye’nin demokratikleşme sürecine yeni bir bakış açısı sunan iyi bir laboratuvardır. Bu çalışmanın amacı ise DP’nin Edirne’deki doğuş ve yükseliş sürecinde ilin coğrafyası, gündelik hayat içinde toplumsal ve iktisadi dinamikler ve Cumhuriyet Halk Partisi (CHP) ve DP’deki yerel siyasi aktörlerin rollerini açıklamaktır. 1946 Genel Seçimleri Demokrat Parti tarafından kazanılmasına rağmen Demokrat Partinin Edirne Milletvekilleri istifa etmişler ve 1948’de Millet Partisi’nin kuruluşunda yer almışlardır. Böylece, bu çalışma 1950 seçim kampanyasında Demokrat Partinin il teşkilatının yeniden kurulduğunu göstermektedir.

Monitoring the quality of life in urban area using TDVI- Case study of Kalaburagi city
Authors:   Bihar, Kumari Abhilasha
Published: October 2021

Many vegetation indices have been proposed over last decades made specialists search for the most suitable vegetation index for a given remote sensing application. Measuring the Quality of Place (QOP) is a hard task since it involves both physical and socio-economic dimensions. Being one of the major land use categories, urban vegetation plays a significant role in one‟s judgment for QOP in a neighborhood. Both quantity and quality of the community parks and recreation areas are major determinants of neighborhood attraction. For these reasons, detection of urban vegetation cover has been one of the important implication areas of urban image classification techniques. “Transformed Difference Vegetation Index (TDVI) developed by Bannari et al. (2002), is tested in a previous work where the index has performed better than NDVI and SAVI. In that work, a comparative study between TDVI, SAVI and NDVI for estimating vegetation cover in urban environment from the Indian Remote Sensing Satellite (IRS-1D) imagery has been conducted. The validation of the obtained results according to the ground truth showed that the TDVI is an excellent tool for vegetation cover monitoring in urban environment. It does not saturate like NDVI or SAVI, it shows an excellent linearity as a function of the rate of vegetation cover. This paper adds on the previous work by analyzing the performance of TDVI in urban image classification. Results indicate that, the performance of TDVI in urban image classification is better than NDVI and SAVI. The new index not only differentiates the urban vegetation cover better but also helps to minimize the error in classifying other unclassified pixels of urban categories.

Published: October 2021

Aim. Determine the state of the biochemical composition of blood in the midst and resolution of muscle hematomas in patients with hemophilia.Materials and methods. 118 patients with hemophilia were examined. These patients were inpatient treatment at the hemophilia center at the Republican Specialized Scientific and Practical Hematology Center of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Uzbekistan. The control group consisted of 40 apparently healthy men of the same age. Results. Signs of massive hemorrhages in the tissue are an increase in the blood level of the activity of the cytoplasmic enzyme aspartate aminotransferase (54.1 ± 3.9 and 18 ± 4.1, respectively) and alanine aminotransferase (55.3 ± 5.2 and 27.3 ± 4.4, respectively). Depending on the severity of the breakdown of muscle fibers and the rate of progression of the complication, the increase in CPK activity in myopathies can be either sharp - 680.7 ± 14.2 IU / L (hemophilic tumor, tissue necrosis), or, conversely, insignificant 120.3 ± 11.1 IU / L (muscle tissue contracture or atrophy). Deficiency of serum iron (6.4 ± 1.1 μmol / L) was revealed in all groups of examined patients with hemophilia. There was a tendency to lower cholesterol content to 3.3 ± 0.2 mmol / L. The content of urea, as the end product of protein metabolism, was higher in hemophilia patients with a syndrome of necrotic changes in hematomas – in 4 patients (9.8 ± 2.2 mmol / l), which, in our opinion, is associated with an increase in the breakdown of hemoglobin and other proteins with massive hemolysis of erythrocytes in tissues. The study of trace elements in the blood serum revealed a deficiency of Mg²+ 1.6 times, Ca²+ 2.1 times.Conclision. In patients with hemophilia with hemorrhages in muscle tissue, there was a tendency to lower cholesterol and iron levels, and an increase in the amount of bilirubin. The “key” enzymes for the diagnosis and prognosis of complications can be a dynamic study of the activity of the levels of CPK (creatine phosphokinase) and ALT (alanine aminotransferase), AST (aspartate aminotransferase).

Authors: Jayabalan R
Published: October 2021

Consuming fresh water for the production of bioethanol cannot be considered as a sustainable approach due to the worldwide threats on the availability of fresh water in the future. Seawater has been studied as a reaction medium by several research groups in fermentative, enzymatic and chemo-catalytic applications. Several reports concluded that the utilization of seawater would be highly promising and hence the prospects at the interface between biology and chemistry are predictable for holistic innovations and further research. The policies made by several countries have also recommended the implementation of alternative technologies to reduce the consumption of fresh water in industries. This serious situation warrants the development of efficient, ecofriendly, sustainable practices for achieving the sustainability in the global fine and specialty chemicals’ industry.

The evaluation of climatic change impact on maize grain and biomass yield under different N management practices through a well-calibrated and validated APSIM model in Vertisol of central India has been made. Climate scenarios were derived from seven global climate models (GCM) for two representative concentration pathways (RCPs), i.e. RCP4.5 and RCP8.5, and two-time slices, i.e. 2050 and 2080. The five N scenarios, namely N0%, N50%, N100%, N150%, and 100% organic, were studied in different climatic scenarios. The probability of exceedance showed that N0%, N50%, N100%, N150%, and 100% organic treatments have a 50% chance of yield greater than 1.0, 3.40, 4.20, 4.45 and 3.84 t ha-1, respectively. The average reduction of maize yield was -44.4, -20, -19.7 - 17.9 and 22.5 per cent in N 0%, N 50%, N 100%, N 150%, 100% organic, respectively under RCP4.5 over the baseline period (1980-2010). For RCP8.5, the average reduction of maize yield in N 0%, N 50%, N 100%, N 150%, 100% organic was 41.2, 21.2, 20.8 20.6 and 23.1 per cent, respectively. Simulation results suggested that a higher decrease of maize yield in 100 per cent organic treatments than inorganic treatments is due to variability in N uptake.

Authors: Pluciński Bartosz , Waloszek Andrzej , Rutkowska Joanna , Strzałka Kazimierz
Published: October 2021

Despite being an essential micronutrient, copper is also a potentially toxic heavy metal. Using selection experiments, we produced
Chlamydomonas reinhardtii
populations with increased tolerance of copper ions and then derived pure cell lines from these populations. Strains derived from the same population (both adapted and nonadapted) significantly differed in terms of growth parameters. Cultivation of the strains in a range of copper ion concentrations revealed differences in growth and photosynthetic performance, which could be attributed to microevolutionary processes occurring with each cell division. Our results demonstrate the effects of environmental factors on rapidly multiplying microorganisms.
COPING ESPIRITUAL RELIGIOSO EM INSTITUIÇÕES DE LONGA PERMANÊNCIA NO NORTE DO PARANÁ
Authors: Macedo Elaine Pinheiro Neves de , Esperandio Mary Rute Gomes
Published: October 2021

A mudança de papéis, as perdas e as transformações físicas que caracterizam o contexto da velhice levantam a pergunta sobre o papel da espiritualidade neste cenário. O estudo objetiva analisar o modo como residentes de Instituições de Longa Permanência para Pessoas Idosas (ILPIs) utilizam a espiritualidade como recurso para o enfrentamento (coping) do estresse e do sofrimento. A pesquisa foi realizada em 18 ILPIs da região Norte do Paraná, com 188 participantes. Trata-se de um estudo descritivo, com abordagem quantitativa com estudo de campo de corte transversal. Os dados foram coletados a partir da aplicação da Escala de Coping Espiritual Religioso (CER BREVE), da Escala da Centralidade da Religiosidade e questionário sociodemográfico. Os resultados apontam média da amostra do CER Positivo (M=4,14 e DP=0,78) e o CER Negativo (M=1,23 e DV=0,49). A amostra analisada (4,0 a 5,0) indica que a religiosidade é central na vida da pessoa idosa institucionalizada, considerada altamente religiosa. Conclui-se que as pessoas idosas reconhecem a importância da espiritualidade/religiosidade e se beneficiam dela para enfrentar os problemas e superá-los. Fornecer treinamento para o cuidado espiritual de pessoas idosas pode ser uma grande contribuição da Teologia a fim de promover melhores cuidados em ILPIs.

Published: October 2021

A wide variety of fiber devices can be created by adding special coatings on tapered sections of optical fibers. In this work we present the fundamentals for the fabrication of tapered optical fibers coated with functional polymers. The required aspects of light propagation in tapered sections of optical fibers are introduced and the relevant parameters enabling light interaction with external media are discussed. A special case of interest is the addition of polymeric coatings with prescribed thicknesses in the tapered sections allowing for adjusting the light propagation features. We assess the use of liquid polymer coatings with varying thicknesses along the taper profile that can be tailored for tuning the transmission features of the devices. Hence, we introduce a methodology for obtaining coatings with predefined geometries whose optical properties will depend on the polymer functionality. As demonstrated with numerical simulations, the use of functional polymer coatings in tapered optical fibers allows for obtaining a wide variety of functionalities. Thus, controlled polymer coating deposition may provide a simple means to fabricate fiber devices with adjustable transmission characteristics.

Authors: Nishihara Yutaka , Eguchi Hideo , Steve Zhou Sifang
Published: October 2021

This chapter focuses on viral efficacy evaluations of silver ion (Ag+) formulations against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the virus associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and feline calicivirus (FCV), a surrogate for human norovirus. The chapter discusses the proposed mechanism of inactivation, with reference to some previously published articles. In addition, it discusses the background/current trend/future view of Ag+ products that have been used widely as surface/environment disinfectants in daily life all over the world. In efficacy studies performed by using the standardized ASTM E1052 methodology, it was found that Ag+ formulated with a low concentration (26% w/w) of ethanol displayed virucidal activity against SARS-CoV-2 and FeCV. These formulations might be useful for preventing the transmission of such viruses and limiting the outbreaks of emerging infectious diseases caused by coronaviruses and caliciviruses. To our knowledge, this is the first report describing the virucidal efficacy of an Ag+ formulation, evaluated by using the standardized ASTM E1052 methodology, for inactivating SARS-CoV-2. Some characteristics of Ag+-based virucides are discussed in this research report/minireview.

Published: October 2021

Weaning from mechanical ventilation is a common process in critically ill patients and its failure is related to worsening outcomes. A better understanding of the subject is necessary to change these unfavorable results. This chapter will review the approach to weaning from mechanical ventilation in special groups of critically ill patients. The chapter will also review the causes of failure to wean from MV along with strategies for improving evaluation and approach of the patient with difficult and prolonged weaning from mechanical ventilation. Therefore, the presence of this topic in a book on mechanical ventilation is fundamental and relevant.

Authors: Majumder Poulami , Kumar Dey Subrata
Published: October 2021

Congenital disorders define the disease that occurs since the birth of a baby. Down syndrome, Turner syndrome, cleft lip, and congenital heart disease are the most common congenital disorders worldwide. A retrospective study was carried out, examining the effect of sociodemographic factors on congenital anomalies in the state of West Bengal, India, over a period of 6 years. A total of 595 cases with congenital disorders including Down syndrome, Turner syndrome, and other abnormalities (cleft lip/palate, syndactyly, ambiguous genitalia) were statistically analyzed along with the sociodemographic characteristics through Statistical Analysis System (SAS) 9.3.2. Down syndrome is seemed to be associated with age, ethnicity, parental addiction, especially smoking, while Turner syndrome is associated with ethnicity and gender. Other congenital disorders such as ambiguous genitalia are found to be associated with maternal addiction.

The issue of sensory marketing is a relatively new concept in managerial science. Due to the competitive environment of the global market, companies are confronted with the constant need to find effective approaches that will allow them to maintain a competitive advantage in the fight for the customer. One such approach is the application of sensory marketing tools to brand-building processes. The aim of the chapter is to bring the issue of sensory marketing closer to the general professional public. The chapter also focuses on the pointing out the fact that only by taking into account the specifics related to sensory marketing, the process of building a brand becomes holistic and sustainable. The theoretical framework describes the basic foundations of the issue. The empirical part presents a description of the selected experiment from a series of five experimental investigations performed to verify the theoretical assumptions in practice. From the point of view of the findings, it can be stated that targeted stimulations of the senses have a significant impact on the overall experience of individuals. Through the synthesis of theoretical and practical knowledge, it was possible to compile a model for the application of knowledge to business practice.
