Rayleigh-Taylor Instability with Finite Skin Depth
Authors: Silveira F. E. M.
Published: January 2019

In this work, the Rayleigh-Taylor instability is addressed in a viscous-resistive current slab, by assuming a finite electron skin depth. The formulation is developed on the basis of an extended form of Ohm’s law, which includes a term proportional to the explicit time derivative of the current density. In the neighborhood of the rational surface, a viscous-resistive boundary-layer is defined in terms of a resistive and a viscous boundary layers. As expected, when viscous effects are negligible, it is shown that the viscous-resistive boundary-layer is given by the resistive boundary-layer. However, when viscous effects become important, it is found that the viscous-resistive boundary-layer is given by the geometric mean of the resistive and viscous boundary-layers. Scaling laws of the time growth rate of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability with the plasma resistivity, fluid viscosity, and electron number density are discussed.

Authors: Amaral Eduardo Tadeu Roque , Oliveira Luanna de Sousa Do Nascimento
Published: January 2019

Este trabalho analisa a variação lexical de expressões fixas formadas por nomes gerais, isto é, unidades linguísticas que possuem conteúdo semântico mínimo. A análise se baseia em pressupostos teóricos da variação linguística e dos estudos lexicais, especialmente daqueles dedicados às expressões fixas ou fraseologismos (GARCÍA-PAGE, 2008; FULGÊNCIO, 2008; TAGNIN, 2013). Também são considerados os aspectos teóricos de trabalhos que investigam as propriedades dos nomes gerais (AMARAL e RAMOS, 2014; KOCH e OESTERREICHER, 2007; MIHATSCH, 2015). Os itens investigados são coisa, negócio, trem e troço, todos com traço [-humano]. A amostra está constituída por dados de transcrições de língua oral obtidas a partir de gravações sociolinguísticas realizadas em diferentes estados do país. A análise permite mostrar que, mesmo em construções que tendem a ser consideradas estruturas cristalizadas, existe uma variação que se manifesta tanto em elementos não nucleares como em núcleos constituídos por nomes gerais, o que se observa principalmente em marcadores conversacionais.

Background: Zinc is the main constituent element of Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) which acts to protect cells from inflammation and the toxic effects of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS). High ROS production induces fat peroxidation, and forms malondialdehyde (MDA) which causes oxidative stress.Objectives: This study aimed to analyze the difference of zinc and malondialdehyde levels among Multi Drug Resistant Tuberculosis and sensitive Tuberculosis.Methods: Crossectional study with 55 subjects consisted of 32 MDR-TB subjects and 23 subjects TB sensitive. Selection of subjects using consecutive sampling. Zinc and MDA serum was obtained from venous blood. Zinc and MDA concentration were assessed by quantitative colometric and Thiobarbituric Acid Reactive Substances (TBARS) respectively. Data were analized statistic by independent t-test and Mann Whitney test.Results: Zinc level of MDR-TB and TB sensitive were 74.85 (64 - 97) μg/dl and 73.03 (63 - 97) μg/dl respectively, while MDA of MDR-TB and sensitive TB were 2.262±1.055 nmol/mL and 2.66±0.992 nmol/mL. There was no significantly different in zinc level between MDR-TB and sensitive TB (p=1.000). Furthermore, there was not significantly different of MDA level between MDR-TB and sensitive Tuberculosis (p=0,147).Conclusion: There are no differences in zinc and MDA levels in patient between MDR-TB and sensitive TB.
AKULTURASI DALAM ARSITEKTUR RUMAH TINGGAL LASEM : Studi Kasus Rumah Liem King Siok
Authors: Sudarwani M. Maria , Purwanto Edi , Rukhayah Siti
Published: December 2018

Lasem was called “La Petit Chinois” or “Small China” because there were Chinese community settlements consisting of old Chinese-style houses. Lasem was a large port city since the time of the Majapahit Kingdom until the Dutch colonialism encouraged cultural acculturation. Lasem batik is one of the results of acculturation of Javanese and Chinese culture and has been a noble outfit since King Lasem I ruled (1350-1375). Cultural acculturation forms a distinctive cultural identity that is an important part of coastal culture. Therefore the uniqueness of cultural acculturation in Lasem is interesting to study. The purpose of this study was to obtain an overview of Chinese residential architecture in Lasem Chinatown and Chinese culture in Lasem, so as to enrich local theories about the meaning behind the architecture of Chinese houses in Lasem. This research method uses the rationalistic paradigm with a qualitative approach. Cultural acculturation influences local architecture through variety, pattern of space, and order, so that the result of mixing culture will form a new image of local society (Fauzy, 2012). The culture acculturation has influenced the spatial layout and details of the residential houses of the Chinese community so as to produce a unique form of architecture.

Published: December 2018

This article aims to study the anthropology of religious violence in Jack David Eller's perspective. The conclusions are: (1) violence, anthropologically, is not an objective quality of a concept and a judgment, depending on the person who sees it. Some violence is considered good and ordered as rights and obligations; (2) the factors supporting violence are: constituents of cultural violence, integration into groups, identities, institutions, interests, and ideologies; (3) religious violence is practiced in all religions because there are some aspects of violence in religious doctrine; (4) religious violence has various forms: sacrifice, martyrdom, persecution, holy war, ethno-religious conflict, abuse, crime and murder.

THE UNIFICATION CHURCH: A KALEIDOSCOPIC INTRODUCTION
Authors: BARKER EILEEN
Published: January 2019

The Unification Church, or the Unificationism, also known as HAS-UWC (Holy Spirit Association for the Unification of World Christianity) or ‘Moonies’ (the term deemed now as disrespectful) but originating from the name of the founder Sun Myung Moon, who set up this Christian religious movement in Northern Korea in 1954 has approximately 3 million followers worldwide. Its existence and popularity are a global phenomenon, interesting not only for sociologists of religion but for politicians, philosophers and people of faith. The impact of this movement and the two-way social change remain a rare subject of study and this paper aims to fill the gaps and to discuss contemporary situation in regards to its followers.
THE IDEA AND PRACTICALITIES OF ‘NATURE’ IN JANUSZ KORCZAK’S PHILOSOPHY
Authors: SHNER MOSHE
Published: January 2019

This article tackles that question of the place of Nature as an idea and Life in Nature as a reality in the education philosophy of Janusz Korczak. First, we establish the idea that Korczak was a naturalistic philosopher and that nature in its broad cosmic sense serves as the ordering principle of his entire pedagogical legacy. Influenced by Stoic philosophy, Korczak rejects transcendence and sees the human being in the only context possible, nature.Following this paradigm, we establish Korczak's education as a reality guided pedagogy. The nature of the child mandates education and not free unrealistic aspirations. The nature of the child, his family, his biography in its broadest sense also set the limits of what can be achieved through education.At last, we follow Korczak's appreciation of nature and countryside experience as a healing experience for poverty inner city children. There, in nature, in free play, work and sport, they regain their physical and mental health. There Korczak also had his best opportunity to learn the child and to develop his known educational ideas, which he later on implemented in his children houses.
BRAZILIAN KEY–THINKERS ON EDUCATION
Authors: FERREIRA IVAN VILELA , WIGGERS INGRID DITTRICH
Published: January 2019

It is almost a consensus among the Brazilians that, in order to solve the social issues, the education must be improved. Thus, the present study aimed to analyze the Brazilian key-thinkers on education. Rui Barbosa, Fernando de Azevedo, Anísio Teixeira, Cecília Meireles, and Paulo Freire were selected because they worked to develop some aspects of education: politics, educational system, philosophy of education, childhood education and pedagogical methods. These intellectuals fought against powerful societal forces, but they did not give up on transforming the Brazilian education, and, consequently, the Brazilian society. Therefore, they were selected to represent the Brazilian key-thinkers on education.

Published: January 2019

In this research, the use of new technologies for the development of special protective overall for sport aircraft pilots was studied, with a focus on a comparative analysis of the static and dynamic body postures’ dimensions, intended for the development of the overall’s pattern design. For this purpose, digitalization of five male persons was carried out with the 3D human body scanner Vitus Smart by using 3D printed markers, precisely positioned on defined body locations, intended for exact measurement of body dimensions. Male persons, aged between 19 and 35 years with the same athletic body type and different body heights and body mass indexes (BMIs), were scanned in a standard static standing body posture and three dynamic body postures. A comparative analysis between the static and dynamic body postures was carried out. Based on the established body dimensions and girth dimensions of the 3D body model with 3D-modeled compression elements, made-to-measure construction of the overall pattern design was carried out. The function of these compression elements is redistribution of the blood from the lower extremities to the upper body parts at the appearance of high g-forces. Therefore, increased girth dimensions due to the use of compression elements were applied in the overall development process as construction measures with needed ease allowances. The functionality of the developed special protective overall was explored on the scanned 3D body model with 3D-modeled compression elements in a real sitting posture of the sport aircraft pilot in a cab by using virtual prototyping. The virtual simulation technology showed that a well-fitted protective overall for sport aircraft pilots can be developed by using a 3D scanned body model of a person in a sitting posture and its 3D body dimensions.

The Interface Between the Securitization Act of 2004 and the Financial Rehabilitation and Insolvency Act of 2010
Authors: Geronimo Russell Stanley Q.
Published: January 2019

The interface between securitization law and insolvency law is the central legal concern in designing securitization transactions. The complex structure of these transactions under the Securitization Act of 2004 should be understood within a specific legal context: the possible bankruptcy, insolvency, or liquidation of the “originator” (i.e. the entity requiring securitization financing), which may jeopardize the claims of asset-backed security investors. It is a solution to the risk that security holders with claim to specific assets may end up being subordinated to the interest of preferred creditors and ranked pari passu with, or even lower than, unsecured creditors in a rehabilitation or liquidation proceeding. Under present law, this risk may arise through the “substantive consolidation” and “clawback” provisions of the Financial Rehabilitation and Insolvency Act (FRIA) of 2010. This risk is mitigated through the creation of a bankruptcy remote vehicle and true sale of receivables, and it is the lawyer’s principal role in the securitization process to isolate or ring-fence assets beyond the reach of creditors, and making them an exclusive claim of investors. How this works in theory and practice is the subject of this paper.
Member States’ Compliance with EU Law in 2018 in the Field of Internal Market
Authors: Berlingher Daniel
Published: January 2019

The present text is dedicated to analysing the situation of Member States’ compliance with EU law in the field of Internal Market because it is one of the most important aspects of the process of European consolidation. In the introductory part we presented the central role of the European Commission because it is the institution that monitors the implementation of the EU law in the national legal order of each Member State. At the centre of our analysis is the 2017 Annual Report of the European Commission. Here we presented in a schematic manner the European norms that the Member States had to implement in their legal order in 2017. We concluded our research by presenting the evolution of this complex process with reference to the data furnished by the Single Market Scoreboard. The situation did not know a significant improvement in the process of Member States’ compliance with EU law. We can see that things evolved but we consider that this evolution could have been better if Member States would have dedicated more attention to this process.

Published: December 2018

Introduction. Functional fitness enables satisfying and performing basic everyday needs in a safe and independent way. Its assessment is currently the basic component of the overall assessment of the patient.Aim. The aim of the study was to evaluate the functional capacity of patients after brain tumor surgery. The analysis included selected factors that may affect patient’s performance after the surgery.Material and Methods. The study included 165 patients of neurosurgical wards hospitalized for a brain tumor. Surgeries were performed in all of them — and consisted in partial or complete removal of the pathological mass by craniotomy. Patient’s functional assessment on the day of admission and on the discharge day was analyzed with the use of FCS, KPS, BI, FIR, GOS scales.Results. The largest number of respondents on the day of admission were patients in the first group according to FCS scale — independent — 138 respondents (83.6%). None of the patients qualified for group IV with total dependence. In turn, on the day of discharge, the percentage of respondents qualified to group I was 127 people (77.0%), whereas 1 person became completely dependent. Similar results were obtained in other measuring tools. The observed differences in each of the tests carried out did not turn out to be statistically significant. On KPS, BI and GOS scales, the age turned out to be statistically significant at p=0.000. On the other hand, on FCS, KPS and GOS scales, the state of consciousness was also statistically significant at p=0.000.Conclusions. Most of the respondents show very good functional capacity both on the day of admission and on the day of discharge. However, patients scored slightly better on the day of admission to the ward. Such factors as age and consciousness before surgery significantly affect patient’s functional capacity on the day of discharge. (JNNN 2018;7(3):111–117)

Introduction. At present, in Poland and other European countrieswe are witnessing an increase in the number of elderly people. Of particular importance is the psychophysical evaluation of the patient and defining the deficits in their everyday functioning.Aim. The aim of the study was to analyze selected demographic factors affecting biopsychosocial functioning of neurogeriatric patients.Material and Methods. The research was carried out in the Department of Geriatrics at University Hospital No. 1 in Bydgoszcz on a group of 122 patients aged from 60 to 95 years, hospitalized for diseases of the nervous system. The biopsychosocial assessment was performed with the use of the NOSGER scale (Nurses’ Observation Scale for Geriatric Patients) — the Nursing Care Scale of Geriatric Patients and the Barthel scale.Results. As a result of the analysis, it was found that the average assessment of the functioning of older people in the assessment of the NOSGER scale was 89.89 for 150 maximum points. As a result of the analysis, it was found that respondents aged up to 64 years functioned best in each aspect of the NOSGER scale, whereas respondents aged over 90 years functioned the worst, with the exception of moods and emotions subscales. In the age groups 65–74 and 75–89, functioning was similar in all subscales. The statistical analysis carried out showed that the respondents who were in the second group of fitness had significantly worse functioning in each subscale and the overall NOSGER assessment than those who were in the first fitness group (p<0.05).Conclusions. There were no statistically significant differences found between gender, age, marital status, education, and functional fitness of patients on the Barthel score. There was also no significant effect of gender, age and education on the NOSGER patients assessment. Significant influence of marital status on the assessment in the area of destructive and disruptive behaviors on the NOSGER scale was observed. (JNNN 2018;7(3):118–123)

Insulin leave (Tithonia diversifolia (Hemsl.) A. Gray) empirically used by people as antihyperglycemic drugs. The study was aimed to evaluate antihyperglycemic activity as well as to determine the most optimum dose of T. diversifolia to reduce blood glucose levels. Hyperglycemic condition was induced to male Rattus norvegicus rats by intraperitoneal injection of alloxan at a dose of 150 mg/kg bw (body weight). In this study, completely randomized design was performed with three treatment groups and five times repetition. Group P1 received glibenclamide 10 mg/kg bw, P2 received aqueous extract of T. diversifolia at a dose of 150 mg/kg bw, P3 received aqueous extract of T. diversifolia at a dose of 300 mg/kg bw. Administration of both glibenclamide and aqueous extract of T. diversifolia was conducted orally for 28 days. Data were analyzed using Anova and Duncan’s test with 95% confidence level (α = 0.05). The results showed that the mean percentage of decrease in blood glucose levels, drink intake and body weight of all treatment groups were not significantly different (p>0.05). Data of feed intake showed that P1 was significantly different from P2 (p<0.05), but P2 was not significantly different from P3 (p>0.05). Based on the result of this research, it was found that the low doses of aqueous extract of T. diversifolia has the same ability to decrease blood glucose level compared to glibenclamide. Futhermore, this study provide some information that can be used as preclinical analysis to determine effective doses of aqueous extract of T. diversifolia to decrease blood glucose levels.

Button mushrooms (Agaricus bisporus) is an edible mushroom that is most widely cultivated in the world. It contains bioactive compounds that might provide beneficial effects on diabetes mellitus patient. The study aimed to determine the effects of A. bisporus administration on the blood glucose, and malondyaldehyd (MDA) levels as well as superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity of alloxan-induced diabetic rats. This study was also conducted to determine the secondary metabolites produced by A. bisporus. The method used was experimental methods with Completely Randomized Design. A. bisporus extract at the doses of 250, 500 and 750 mg/kg body weight (BW) per day were orally applied to alloxan-induced diabetic rats for a period of 14 days after the rats became diabetes. The results showed that the extract of A. bisporus could decrease blood glucose, and MDA levels as well as increase SOD activity (p < 0.05). A. bisporus extract 500 mg/kg BW is the most effective dose to be used. Based on Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) test, it was known that secondary metabolites produced by A. bisporus are flavonoids, alkaloids, terpenoids and saponins. A. bisporus has potential as an antidiabetic through the ability to decrease blood glucose, and MDA levels, as well as increase SOD activity in diabetic rats. This research is able to provide information about the antidiabetic potential of A. bisporus extract so that it can be used as an alternative natural antidiabetic agent and can be applied in the community with ease and in a more controlled industrial scale.

Authors: THALIB Prawitra , SABRIE Hilda Yunita , KURNIAWAN Faizal
Published: January 2019

This research aims to describe the effectiveness of supervisory functions in Islamic banking and finance in Indonesia. To this end, this work uses descriptive quantitative research applying Library Approach. As an intermediary institution based on sharia principles, sharia banks must perform two compliances, namely sharia principle and law compliance. The application of these compliances is not only required for good corporate governance and diverse products of sharia bank, but also for financial deeds made by a notary. Therefore, financial deeds in sharia banks must reflect the sharia compliance principle instead of only reflecting the law compliance. Special concern about sharia compliance has become authority scope from the Sharia Supervisory Board. Thus, Sharia Supervisory Board does not only ensure the application of sharia compliance but also every deed based on Islamic principles built by a notary. Failure to fulfill the sharia principles in a sharia bank financing deed can cause such deed to be null and void.

Published: January 2019

There is delicate crosstalk between fetus-derived trophoblasts (Tros) and maternal cells during normal pregnancy. Dysfunctions in interaction are highly linked to some pregnancy complications, such as recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA), pre-eclampsia and fetal growth restriction. Hyaluronan (HA), the most abundant component of extracellular matrix, has been reported to act as both a pro- and an anti-inflammatory molecule. Previously, we reported that HA promotes the invasion and proliferation of Tros by activating PI3K/Akt and MAPK/ERK1/2 signaling pathways. While lower HA secretion by Tros was observed during miscarriages than that during normal pregnancies, in the present study, we further confirmed that higher secretion of HA by Tros could induce M2 polarization of macrophages at the maternal–fetal interface by interacting with CD44 and activating the downstream PI3K/Akt-STAT-3/STAT-6 signaling pathways. Furthermore, HA could restore the production of IL-10 and other normal pregnancy markers by decidual macrophages (dMφs) from RSA. These findings underline the important roles of HA in regulating the function of dMφs and maintaining a normal pregnancy.
Development and Validation of a Cellulitis Risk Score: The Melbourne ASSET Score
Authors: Ibrahim Laila F. , Hopper Sandy M. , Donath Susan , Salvin Bennett , Babl Franz E. , Bryant Penelope A.
Published: January 2019

BACKGROUND:

The evidence is unclear about the optimal route of treatment for children with cellulitis, specifically how to assess the risk of moderate-to-severe cellulitis requiring intravenous (IV) antibiotics. We aimed to derive and validate a cellulitis risk assessment scoring system to guide providers as to which patients require IV antibiotics.

METHODS:

This was a prospective cohort study of children presenting to the emergency department aged 6 months to 18 years diagnosed with cellulitis from January 2014 to August 2017. Patients were divided into 2 groups based on route of antibiotics at 24 hours (the predetermined gold standard). Demographics and clinical features were compared. Clinicians were surveyed about which features they used to decide whether to start IV antibiotics. Combinations of differentiating features were plotted on receiver operating characteristic curves.

RESULTS:

There were 285 children in the derivation cohort used to create the Melbourne Area, Systemic features, Swelling, Eye, Tenderness (ASSET) Score, which has a maximum score of 7. The area under the curve was 0.86 (95% confidence interval 0.83–0.91). Using a cutoff score of 4 to start IV antibiotics yielded the highest correct classification of 80% of patients (sensitivity 60%; specificity 93%). This score was validated in 251 children and maintained a robust area under the curve of 0.83 (95% confidence interval 0.78–0.89).

CONCLUSIONS:

The Melbourne ASSET Score was derived and validated for cellulitis in children to guide clinicians regarding when to start IV antibiotics. Although intended for widespread use, if limitations exist in other settings, it is designed to allow for refinement and is amenable to local impact analysis.
Banning the Beatles
Authors: Thompson Gordon
Published: December 2018

By 1967, the BBC had lost a significant number of listeners to offshore 'pirate' radio stations such that its administrators developed a plan to split the Light Programme into two channels, one of which would feature pop-music recordings to recapture some of that audience. With legislation moving through Parliament to eliminate the 'pirates', Associate Director of Sound BroadcastingRichard Marriott convinced the Board of Governors to establish what would become Radio 1. In the context of the 'Summer of Love', he moved to reassure the board that the BBC's traditional standards would be maintained. Against a backdrop of drug arrests and a history of songs slipping drug references past censors, Marriott chose the Beatles' 'A Day in the Life' as one of his vehicles for proving that the new channel would uphold the mission to inform, to educate, and to entertain. The decision not to broadcast 'A Day in the Life' coincided with a conservative political rejection of the social changes that have come to characterize the 1960s.

The names of pop groups in the UK hit parades of the 1960s
Authors: Coffey Stephen
Published: December 2018

This article discusses the names of pop groups active in the 1960s, specifically those groups who had at least one record in the UK charts. By consulting data on the website of the Londonbased Official Charts Company, a database was compiled of just over 300 group names. The vast majority of the groups were either from the British Isles or North America. The present study reports on aspects of the form and meaning of the names. With regard to form, data is presented regarding the overall structure of names, abbreviated forms, and the use of linguistic features such as ready-made phrases, alliteration, rhyme and wordplay. With regard to meaning, a list of recurring meanings are presented and exemplified. The article also gives examples of how specific reasons or circumstances can contribute to the choice of names, and illustrates the difficulties in documenting this aspect of the naming process.
Still 'Rage'-ing
Authors: Giuffre Liz
Published: December 2018

The music video programme Rage celebrated its thirtieth year on air in April 2017. A staple of the Australian media landscape and an important music source for industry and audiences, Rage provides national exposure for emerging artists as well as a platform for tributes, recommendations and popular music histories. The programme is also unique internationally, with a longevity and influence that television outlets in comparable markets like the US and UK have been unable to replicate. This article explores Rage's continuing broadcast as well as evolution and expansion into on-demand and digital television services. I argue that the music programme continues to innovate in the post-broadcast television and digital music industries, as well as provide an important touchstone for traditional Australian television and music outlets.

Особенности нового языка («Новоязы») русских язычников XXI века
Authors: Шиженский Роман
Published: January 2019

Особенности нового языка («Новоязы») русских язычников XXI века. Современное язычество, подобно иным новым религиозным движениям (НРД), включает теоретические изложения и обоснования учений, созданные идеологами объединений, устные выступления руководителей, растиражированные в форме нарративов, электронных носителей, фиксированные пророчества, сочинения адептов (как правило, в рамках первого поколения). Русское язычество XX-XXI веков обладает собственным «новоязом», созданным основателями общин и реализуемым в ритуальной практике. Современный «языческий язык» проявляется в ономастиконе, обрядовой терминологии и в конструировании магических словесных формул. «Новоязы», используемые сегодняшними политеистами, представлены «наукообразными» и «этнически обогащенными» группами, для них характерно использование практики усложнения текста. Кроме того, вслед за другими НРД, язычники «определяются» набором стандартизированных маркеров, нашедших выражение в базовых понятиях и выражениях. Одной из характерных черт успешно реализуемого проекта «языческая печать как товар» является эклектизм источниковой базы традиционного язычества и нового – конструируемого. Данная специфика реализуется через текстологическую работу лидера-автора, формулу «копировать-вставить», за счет которой языческий «новояз» приобретает черты полноценного «исторического» источника. В этой связи можно провести параллели между «новым языком новых язычников» и феноменом «фолк-хистори». Подобно последней, «исторические» творения современных лидеров от нативизма претендуют на истинность в последней инстанции.
Medical Care for Children with Cancer in the North-Caucasian, Volga, Urals, Siberian and Far Eastern Federal Districts: An Ecological Study
Authors: Rykov M. Yu.
Published: December 2018

Background. The analysis of the quality of medical care for children with cancer is based on statistical data. Evaluation of the results is also the basis of the strategy for the development of medical care for this category of patients.

Objective. Our aim was to analysie the main indicators characterizing medical care for children with cancer in the North-Caucasian, Volga, Urals, Siberian and Far Eastern Federal Districts.

Methods. In ecological study the operative reports for 2017 of the executive authorities in the sphere of health protection of 44/48 (91.6%) subjects of the Russian Federation that are part of the listed above federal districts have been analyzed (Chuvash Republic, Irkutsk Region, Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) and Khabarovsk Territory did not provide data).

Results. The number of children’s population was 15 555 306 people (0–17 years), the number of children’s oncological beds — 1166 (0.7 per 10 thousand 0–17 years), the average number of days of berth employment in the year — 324.6 bed days. In 13 (29.5%) subjects of the department of pediatric oncology are absent, in 6 (13.6%) — there are no children’s oncological beds. The number of doctors providing medical care to children with cancer is 213, of which 132 (62%; 0.08 for 10 thousand 0–17 years) have a certificate of a pediatric oncologist. In 6 (13.6%) subjects there are no doctors-children oncologists (6 more (13.6%) subjects did not provide data). The incidence of malignant neoplasms was 13.1 (per 100.000 0–17 years), the prevalence of 93.1 (per 100.000 0–17 years), mortality rate 2.5 (per 100.000 0–17 years), one-year lethality — 6.8%. 10.1% of patients were actively detected. 781 (38.3%) of primary patients were sent to medical organizations for federal subordination, 39 (1.9%) of primary patients left the territory of the Russian Federation.

Conclusion. Obvious accounting defects (low incidence rate) and lack of reliable follow-up data (estimation of mortality levels is difficult) are eliminated by introducing electronic accounting systems. For reliable estimation of the level of provision of the population with children’s cancer beds and the percentage of patients sent for treatment in medical organizations of federal subordination, audit of patients’ illnesses is necessary. The traditional problems — the deficiency of doctors and children’s oncologists and a low percentage of patients identified actively — must be addressed through the reform of the training program for medical personnel.

Published: January 2019

Background

We assessed treatment patterns and outcomes of patients with advanced gastrointestinal (GI) neuroendocrine tumors (NET) at four large tertiary referral centers in the U.S.

Patients and Methods

We performed a retrospective chart review of patients aged ≥18 years at advanced GI NET diagnosis, treated between July 2011 and December 2014. Index date was the histologically confirmed diagnosis date of locally advanced/metastatic GI NET. Data included baseline characteristics, treatment patterns, progression, death, and GI NET-related health care resource utilization from index date through last contact or death. Time-to-event analyses, including treatment discontinuation, progression, and overall survival (OS), were performed using Kaplan-Meier analysis.

Results

We identified 273 patients; 156 (57%) had primary ileum NET, and 174 (64%) had functional NET. First-line treatments included somatostatin analog (SSA) alone (89%) or in combination (2%), liver-directed therapy (LDT; 8%), and cytotoxic chemotherapy or interferon (2%). One hundred fifty-five patients continued with second-line therapy, including SSA alone (17%) or in combination (75%, with 3% combined with peptide receptor radionuclide therapy), LDT (4%), and other treatments (3%). Median time (months) to first-line discontinuation was 154.0 for SSAs and 3.8 for cytotoxic chemotherapy. Overall median time to investigator-assessed progression following treatment initiation was 30.3 months. Median OS (months) following first-line initiation was 151.8 for all patients and 178.9 for first-line SSA.

Conclusion

Our study illustrates the common use of SSAs in both first-line and subsequent treatment of patients with GI NETs, as well as the relatively long survival durations and multiple additional treatments received by patients with this condition. Treatment pattern assessment at later times, following approval of newer treatments, is warranted.
Erosion of aerial lime and sticky rice mortars by cyclic wetting–drying and dilute sulfate acid actions

Lime mortar with organic additives is one of the most widely used building materials in ancient China and continues to play an important role in historic structure restoration. This study investigated the erosion of ordinary aerial lime and sticky-rice mortars under the cyclic actions of wetting–drying (WD) and dilute sulfate acid (DSA). Comprehensive experimental tests were conducted to study the mechanical properties, quality, microstructure and pore structure of the mortars according to cyclic WD and DSA actions. Results showed that both the WD and DSA actions can significantly degrade the compressive and shear strengths of the mortars. The DSA softens the mortar matrices more severely than the WD by a leaching mechanism. Apparently, sticky rice does not change the micro morphology, pore structure and packing pattern of the mortar matrices, but it inhibits the carbonation of the lime. Both the WD and DSA actions can erode the ordinary aerial lime and sticky-rice mortars, causing more porous matrices and coarser particles. The results of this study make it possible to clarify how the WD and DSA actions affect the durability of partially matured aerial lime mortars with or without sticky rice, with potential uses in the restoration of ancient buildings.
The Liveable Cities Method: establishing the case for transformative change for a UK metro

Published: January 2019

There is currently great interest in the creation of sustainable and liveable cities, both in the UK and globally. While it can be argued that good progress is being made in thinking about the needs of future cities, meeting these needs and aspirations in practice poses major challenges of understanding and measurement (what is meant by these terms and how can progress towards their achievement be measured?), complexity (cities are complex systems of systems with many interacting parts) and resilience (will interventions made today be relevant and effective in the future?). The Liveable Cities research programme created a systematic decision-making method for improving urban sustainability and liveability: the Liveable Cities Method (LCM). The LCM prioritises four criteria – individual and societal well-being, resource security, resource efficiency and carbon dioxide emissions as a proxy for environmental harm – in an interconnected framework and assesses the need for, and the resilience of, interventions designed to move cities towards improved sustainability and liveability. This paper illustrates the LCM through an example intervention made to the city of Birmingham, UK, and highlights how addressing sustainability and liveability in this way offers unique opportunities for the UK civil engineering profession to lead thinking among urban professionals.
