Low Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) level underlying recurrent infection in congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM) and MyelodysplasticSyndrome with Chromosome 5q Deletion
Authors: Wijayanti U N
Published: September 2019

Background : Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) is a polypeptide hormone produced mainly by the liver in response to the endocrine GH stimulus, but it is also secreted by multiple tissues for autocrine/paracrine purposes. IGF-I is partly responsible for systemic GH activities although it possesses a wide number of own properties (anabolic, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and cytoprotective actions). IGF-I is a closely regulated hormone. Low IGF-1 level are observed in GH deficiency or GH resistence. If acquired in childhood, these condition result short stature. Currently the best characterized conditions of IGF-I deficiency are Laron Syndrome, in children; liver cirrhosis, in adults; aging including age-related-cardiovascular and neurological diseases; and more recently, intrauterine growth restriction. Most GH resistence in childhood is mild to moderate, with causes ranging from poor nutrition to severe systemic illness. The purpose of this case report  is to summarize the decreasing list of roles of IGF-I underlying pathological desease. Case : The patients were hospitalized with short stature weight 18  kg, height 118 cm (under 3SD), The patient suffering chronic infection sience 2 years old with repeatly bronchiectasis infection.

Deteksi Dini dan Habilitasi Gangguan Dengar Pada Bayi dan Anak
Authors: . Muyassaroh
Published: September 2019

Gangguan pendengaran (hearing loss) dan ketulian (deafness) dapat terjadi pada semua usia sejak lahir sampai usia lanjut, namun kadang-kadang tidak disadari, apalagi jika terjadi pada bayi. Dampak dari gangguan pendengaran dan ketulian tidak hanya berakibat pada terganggunya perkembangan wicara dan bahasa, tetapi pada tahap selanjutnya akan menyebabkan hambatan perkembangan akademik, ketidakmampuan bersosialisasi, perilaku emosional dan berkurangnya kesempatan memperoleh pekerjaan.Semua dampak ini mempengaruhi kualitas hidup anak dan juga orangtua. Identifikasi gangguan pendengaran sejak dini dan intervensi yang sesuai akan mencegah terjadinya segala konsekuensi tersebut. Penyebab gangguan dengar pada bayi dan anak terjadi pada masa prenatal, perinatal dan postnatal. Gangguan dengar atau kelainan pada masa prenatal dapat menyebabkan ketulian pada bayi/tuli sejak lahir.

Angka kekerapan terjadinya tuli sejak lahir dibeberapa negara berkisar 1-3/1000 kelahiran. Di Indonesia sebesar 0,1%. Jumlah ini akan bertambah setiap tahun dengan adanya pertambahan penduduk akibat tingginya angka kelahiran sebesar 0,22%.WHO-SEARO (South East Asia Regional Office) Intercountry meeting (Colombo, 2000) mencanangkan program Sound hearing (SH) 2030 â€œBetter hearing for allâ€, salah satu sasarannya adalah penurunan ketulian sejak lahir.

Deteksi dini dilakukan pada setiap bayi baru lahir setelah 24 jam pertama kelahiran, tindakan intervensi sebelum usia 6 bulan apabila ditemukan masalah ganggguan pendengara.

Yoshinaga-Itano melaporkan bahwa bayi dengan gangguan pendengaran bilateral yang telah dilakukan intervensi sebelum usia 6 bulan, menunjukkan kemampuan berbahasa normal pada usia 3 tahun.Habilitasi pendengaran pada anak dengan gangguan dengar sejak lahir dengan metode AVT terbukti efektif dapat meningkatkan kemampuan bahasa dan bicara mendekati anak normal.

Colistin-induced nephrotoxicity and risk factors in intensive care unit: estimating from the routine laboratory findings
Authors: Şahin Ahmet Ziya , Kocamer Şimşek Betül
Published: September 2019

Objective: In this study we aimed to evaluate the patients treated with colistin in an intensive care unit (ICU) and risk factors emergence of acute renal failure (ARF) after colistine treatment.

Materials and Methods: Patients treated with colistine in the ICU between June 2016 and September 2018 were reviewed in this retrospective study. The 37 patients who were received colistine more than 3 days due to detection of Acinetobacter baumannii in culture of tracheal aspirate specimen were included in this study. Sociodemographic and clinical data and also biochemical parameters, glomerular filtration rates (GFR), APACHE-II, RIFLE and AKIN scores were examined. Patients were divided into two groups as ARF-developing and non-ARF-developing. Follow - up parameters were compared between these two groups.

Results: The patient group consisted of 26 males and 11 females. The mean age of the patients was 61.0 ± 19.33 years and %45 of the patients developed ARF. Mean APACHE-II score was 20.7±5.6. Mean age was significantly older in ARF patients. Onset day of colistine was significantly lower in patients with ARF. Significant relationships were found with the creatinine, albumin, AST, ALT and BUN parameters between ARF.

Conclusion: Older age and early initiation of colistin treatment in the ICU should be considered to be risky for ARF development. Before colistin treatment BUN, creatinine, CRP, albumin and AST levels should be considered to be risky for ARF development. After colistin treatment ALT, BUN, creatinine, urine output, platelet, AST, arterial blood gas base excess levels, urine pH, and protein amount in urine should be followed carefully.
1ES 1927+654: An AGN Caught Changing Look on a Timescale of Months

We study the sudden optical and ultraviolet (UV) brightening of 1ES 1927+654, which until now was known as a narrow-line active galactic nucleus (AGN). 1ES 1927+654 was part of the small and peculiar class of “true Type-2” AGNs that lack broad emission lines and line-of-sight obscuration. Our high-cadence spectroscopic monitoring captures the appearance of a blue, featureless continuum, followed several weeks later by the appearance of broad Balmer emission lines. This timescale is generally consistent with the expected light travel time between the central engine and the broadline emission region in (persistent) broadline AGN. Hubble Space Telescope spectroscopy reveals no evidence for broad UV emission lines (e.g., C iv
λ1549, C iii] λ1909, Mg ii
λ2798), probably owing to dust in the broadline emission region. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case where the lag between the change in continuum and in broadline emission of a “changing look” AGN has been temporally resolved. The nature and timescales of the photometric and spectral evolution disfavor both a change in line-of-sight obscuration and a change of the overall rate of gas inflow as driving the drastic spectral transformations seen in this AGN. Although the peak luminosity and timescales are consistent with those of tidal disruption events seen in inactive galaxies, the spectral properties are not. The X-ray emission displays a markedly different behavior, with frequent flares on timescales of hours to days, and will be presented in a companion publication.
A Radio-to-millimeter Census of Star-forming Galaxies in Protocluster 4C 23.56 at z = 2.5: Global and Local Gas Kinematics

We present a study of the gas kinematics of star-forming galaxies associated with protocluster 4C 23.56 at z = 2.49 using 0.″4 resolution CO (4–3) data taken with ALMA. Eleven Hα emitters (HAEs) are detected in CO (4–3), including six HAEs that were previously detected in CO (3–2) at a coarser angular resolution. The detections in both CO lines are broadly consistent in the line widths and the redshifts, confirming both detections. With an increase in the number of spectroscopic redshifts, we confirm that the protocluster is composed of two merging groups with a total halo mass of log (M
cl/M
⊙) = 13.4–13.6, suggesting that the protocluster would evolve into a Virgo-like cluster (>1014
M
⊙). We compare the CO line widths and the CO luminosities with other (proto)clusters (n
gal = 91) and general field (n
gal = 80) galaxies from other studies. The 4C 23.56 protocluster galaxies have CO line widths and luminosities comparable to other protocluster galaxies on average. On the other hand, the CO line widths are on average broader by ≈50% compared to field galaxies, while the median CO luminosities are similar. The broader line widths can be attributed to both effects of unresolved gas-rich mergers and/or compact gas distribution, which is supported by our limited but decent angular resolution observations and the size estimate of three galaxies. Based on these results, we argue that gas-rich mergers may play a role in the retention of the specific angular momentum to a value similar to that of field populations during cluster assembly, though we need to verify this with a larger number of samples.
Exploring the Mass Segregation Effect of X-Ray Sources in Globular Clusters. II. The Case of Terzan 5
Authors: Cheng Zhongqun , Li Zhiyuan , Fang Taotao , Li Xiangdong , Xu Xiaojie
Published: September 2019

Using archival Chandra observations with a total effective exposure of 734 ks, we derive an updated catalog of point sources in the massive globular cluster (GC) Terzan 5. Our catalog covers an area of 58.1 arcmin2 (R ≤ 4.′3) with 489 X-ray sources, and more than 75% of these sources are first detected in this cluster. We find significant dips in the radial distribution profiles of X-ray sources in Terzan 5, with the projected distance and width of the distribution dips for bright (L
X ≳ 9.5 × 1030 erg s−1) X-ray sources larger than those of the faint (L
X ≲ 9.5 × 1030 erg s−1) sources. By fitting the radial distribution of the X-ray sources with a “generalized King model,” we estimated an average mass of 1.48 ± 0.11 and 1.27 ± 0.13 M
⊙ for the bright and faint X-ray sources, respectively. These results are in agreement with that observed in 47 Tuc, which may suggest a universal mass segregation effect for X-ray sources in GCs. Compared with 47 Tuc, we show that the two-body relaxation timescale of Terzan 5 is much smaller, but its dynamical age is significantly younger than 47 Tuc. These features suggest that the evolution of Terzan 5 is not purely driven by two-body relaxation, and the tidal stripping effect also plays an important role in accelerating the dynamical evolution of this cluster.

Published: September 2019

We consider a silicon nanopowder based anode for a lithium ion battery cell. We present the design of the battery cell ready for in situ Raman and X-ray experiments and a technical procedure for the cell manufacturing. From the continuum mechanics point of view, this type of anode can be represented by a spherical nanoparticle surrounded by viscoelastic matrix. During the charging process this nanoparticle undergoes a chemical reaction. Based on the chemical affinity concept we describe how the mechanical properties of the matrix material influence the kinetics of the charging process. We study spherically symmetry problems numerically for different sets of matrix material parameters and show their influence on the reaction front kinetics.

The Use of the TMA as Stabilizing Reagent for the Li-O System Obtained by Atomic Layer Deposition
Authors: Nazarov Denis , Ezhov Ilya , Mitrofanov Ilya , Lyutakov Oleksiy , Maximov Maxim Yu.
Published: September 2019

Lithium-oxygen thin films were deposited by atomic layer deposition (ALD) on the surface of silicon and stainless-steel using lithium bis (trimethylsilyl) amide (LiHMDS) and different counter-reagents (water, ozone, oxygen plasma). The deposited films were non-stable at storage in the air atmosphere. Results of scanning electron microscopy showed that films show a tendency to crystallization and peeling from the substrate surface. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectroscopy revealed that films mainly consist of LiOH/Li2CO3. Coating the surface of lithium-oxygen films with an aluminum oxide layer using the ALD trimethylaluminum (TMA) and water as precursors did not lead to a significant improvement in stability. Nevertheless, the stable films can be obtained using ALD supercycles consisting of sequential pulsing of LiHMDS-water-TMA-water at 250°C.
Necesidades hídricas del frijol (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) INTA rojo en condiciones del trópico húmedo de Nicaragua
Authors: Flores-Pacheco Juan Asdrúbal , Lazo Sánchez Wilfredo Josiel , Méndez Sevilla Jasvin Joel
Published: September 2019

El cambio climático ha venido alterando las condiciones agroecológicas en todo el mundo. América Latina es una de las regiones más afectadas, siendo Nicaragua, Honduras y Haití los países más vulnerables. Parte de estos efectos se notan en las variaciones de los regímenes de lluvias al punto de tocar extremos como sequias e inundaciones en zonas de clima moderado. El riesgo se acrecienta al saber que el 90% de los cultivos de esta región depende del régimen de lluvias. Como alternativa se han comenzado a evaluar y utilizar ampliamente variedades resistentes a la sequía, una de ellas es la variedad de frijol (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) INTA Rojo (EAP 9510- 77). El objetivo de esta investigación es evaluar el comportamiento fenológico y productivo de esta leguminosa en condiciones de estrés hídrico. También se determinará la cantidad mínima y máxima de agua con la que la planta no presente en pérdida productiva por medio de correlaciones de variables. La investigación se realizó en el municipio de Bocana de Paiwas, en el Caribe de Nicaragua en periodo de primera del ciclo productivo 2018. Se registró una precipitación promedio de 60 mm mensuales. Este estudio es de carácter experimental y dirigido a cuantificar el efecto de las alteraciones fenológicas y productivas en la planta de P. vulgaris por el estrés hídrico. Se empleó el Análisis de Varianza y Diferencia Mínima Significativa con un α=0.05 para el análisis estadístico de los datos registrados. El tratamiento cinco (T5) es el que permitió el desarrollo óptimo de las características fenológicas y productivas P. vulgaris. Este cultivar de frijol requiere un mínimo del 80% y un máximo 120% de la cantidad diaria de evapotranspiración para no entrar en pérdida productiva por estrés hídrico. Partiendo del dato anterior se identifica que el cultivar del frijol es altamente (0.95) sensible a las variaciones de humedad en el suelo. Además, no presenta características de adaptación a condiciones de sequía y/o estrés hídrico por carencia de agua. Se requieren más investigaciones en condiciones controladas donde se pueda monitorear variables ambientales y atmosféricas. También deben integrarse otras variedades, entre ellas las criollas de uso común.

The objective was to evaluate the equipment efficiency in reducing drift and increasing the spray deposition. The experiment was conducted of the conilon coffee plantation, located on the experimental area of the Federal Institute of Espirito Santo, Itapina, Brazil. The experiment was a randomized complete block design with four replications. The treatments consisted: a knapsack sprayer with electrostatic assistance, an electric knapsack sprayer, a knapsack sprayer with a spray shield, and a knapsack sprayer without a spray shield. All sprayers were equipped with a single spray nozzle. Spray deposition was evaluated on wee leaves using a food colourant as a tracer. The knapsack sprayer with electrostatic assistance was the most efficient equipment, providing lower values of drift, and the greatest deposition on the weeds. It is recommended to use the electrostatic sprayer, as it showed greater efficiency in the application of the product on the target, using smaller volume

Background: Stillbirth is one of the unfavorable consequences of pregnancy. Generally, the true causes of fetal death are complicated and difficult to accurately identify. Objectives: The present study was aimed to identify risk factors for stillbirth among mothers referring to health centers of Hormozgan province, Iran. Methods: This case-control study was conducted in 12 cities of Hormozgan province in 2015. The samples were randomly selected among those referring to the health centers of Hormozgan province by cluster sampling. Required data were collected by using a researcher-made questionnaire comprised of demographic characteristics of the mother pregnancy and delivery. The univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to measure the correlation between variables within a significance level of 5%. Data analysis was performed using SPSS, version 21. Results: A total of 825 mothers were recruited and assigned into two groups, experimental and control groups. There were 403 mothers with a history of stillbirth in the experimental group, and the control group was comprised of 422 mothers with a healthy live birth. The average age of the participants in the experimental and control groups were 27.68 ± 6.4 and 26.96 ± 5.4 years, respectively. Most of the mothers (> 90%) in both groups were housewives and most mothers in the case group (37%) were illiterate, whereas the majority of controls (43%) had a university education. The odds of stillbirth among mothers older than 35 years was 2.33 times higher than other mothers [OR: 2.33, 95% CI (1.287 - 4.246)]. The odds of stillbirth among mothers with a history of stillbirth was 10 times higher than those with no stillbirth history [OR: 10.1, 95% CI (2.846 - 35.973)]. Conclusions: The findings of this paper show that the fetal death is associated with maternal age, maternal education, maternal area of living, history of stillbirth in previous pregnancies and history of abortion in previous pregnancies. The results of this study may help to conduct future research effectively, and help supervisors and policymakers make evidence-based operational decisions.

As indústrias de processamento de arroz e laticínios geram efluentes com grande potencial poluidor que requerem modelos alternativos de tratamento. Nesse sentido, a codigestão anaeróbia surge como processo de tratamento preliminar capaz de fornecer energia limpa durante seus processos de fermentação. O objetivo deste estudo, foi avaliar a melhor proporção de mistura dos substratos e inóculo para elevar a eficiência da produção de metano via codigestão anaeróbia com lodo da indústria de arroz (inóculo) e efluente das indústrias de laticínios e arroz parboilizado (substratos), gerados no Rio Grande do Sul, por meio de delineamento experimental com arranjo fatorial 2³, quantificando o metano gerado, através de um sistema desenvolvido com base no deslocamento de fluidos, e análises pH e Demanda Química de Oxigênio. O experimento ocorreu em batelada, à 35°C por 252 horas. A maior produção de metano, 1,50 dm³, ocorreu no biodigestor que recebeu 40% de efluente de arroz, 20% efluente de laticínios e 30% de inóculo. Quanto a remoção de Demanda Química de Oxigênio (DQO), os biodigestores que removeram maiores cargas de DQO foram, em sua maioria, os mesmos que produziram maiores volumes de metano, com remoções de até 76,74%. Todos os pontos apresentaram acidez em suas amostras de entrada e neutralidade nas de saída. Quanto ao sistema de quantificação de gases desenvolvido no estudo, o mesmo apresentou alta eficácia, com baixo desvio padrão e coeficiente de variação.

Graphene, a material formed by carbon atoms with sp2 hybridization in a hexagonal arrangement, has differentiated characteristics in comparison to commercial materials such as high flexibility, high electrical and thermal conductivity, and strong resistance due to the organized structure of the material and can be applied in several branches of research. The best-known method for the production of graphene is the exfoliation of graphite using the methodology proposed by Hummers, in which the commercial graphite is oxidized obtaining as final product the graphene oxide that can be converted into graphene. In this study, the Hummers methodology was used in the oxidation of synthetic graphite and graphene nanoplates of 5 Î¼m and 15 Î¼m. The obtained materials were characterized by FTIR, RAMAN and XRD, allowing to observe the best synthesis to be used in the production of graphene oxide. Then, composites were prepared using the graphene oxides obtained as filler. In order to obtain them, different mass quantities of graphene oxides (1%, 3% and 5% in relation to the polypropylene polymer matrix) were used, demonstrating by the strain tensile stress tests that the composite materials have results more satisfactory than pure polypropylene.

Faz parte da natureza humana a inclinação para viver em sociedade, bem como a necessidade de aceitação e associar-se. Assim, a vida em comunidade se expressa nas relações familiares, no clube, no trabalho, na igreja, como forma de sentir plenamente humano, agindo e vivendo solidariamente com outros seres semelhantes. Neste sentido, o voluntariado é uma atividade desenvolvida pelo indivíduo de forma espontânea e gratuita, com o propósito de ajudar outras pessoas, além de propiciar a criação de valores. Nessa perspectiva, a presente pesquisa objetivou identificar os aspectos motivacionais que influenciam a adesão e a permanência em atividades de voluntariado realizadas pela Igreja Evangélica Assembleia de Deus, no município de Iporá (GO), considerando as teorias acerca de organizações como sistemas sociais e motivação humana. Acerca disso, a pesquisa é considerada qualitativa, quanto à sua natureza, e possui caráter exploratório, tendo sido realizada por meio da aplicação de questionário misto junto aos voluntários, de modo a detectar os aspectos motivacionais que influenciam a adesão e a permanência nas atividades de voluntariado. Conclui-se, portanto, que os voluntários exercem esse tipo de trabalho motivados pela compaixão com o indivíduo, a fim de buscar a transformação desse sujeito. Enfim, os objetivos foram alcançados no que se refere aos aspectos motivacionais humanos explanados nas abordagens teóricas.
Objets ethnographiques associés aux Inuit du Labrador exhibés en Europe en 1880
Authors: Rivet France
Published: September 2019

À l’été 1880, huit Inuit du nord du Labrador acceptent de partir pour l’Europe où, contre rémunération, ils exhiberont leurs personnes et leur culture devant le public de grandes villes. Leur recruteur, le Norvégien Johan Adrian Jacobsen, profite de son séjour à Hebron et dans le fjord de Nachvak pour recueillir dans les sépultures une collection d’artefacts qu’il expose avec les Inuit. Malheureusement, aucun des Inuit ne reverra sa terre natale, le groupe ayant été anéanti par la variole moins de quatre mois après son arrivée en Europe. En 2014, la publication du livre Sur les traces d’Abraham Ulrikab dévoile la présence, dans les collections de musées français et allemands, non seulement des restes humains des Inuit, mais aussi d’un ensemble d’artefacts assemblé par Jacobsen, ainsi que de divers objets ayant appartenus aux Inuit. Ce texte vise à actualiser la nature des objets, l’historique de leur collecte et leur acquisition par les musées européens.

Authors: Njoroge Stephen K. , Njue Lucy G.
Published: September 2019

Background: In Kenya Food safety has been a subject of concern in the recent past due to an increase in chronic illnesses. This was triggered by challenges in quality control, unregulated trade of milk by hawkers, and a minimal level of safety awareness among the farmers.

Objective: The study was aimed at finding out awareness of safety practices on raw milk produced and consumed in Kiambu County. 

Methods: A cross-section study was carried out, to examine hygiene standards and safety aspects among dairy farmers at Gatundu South Constituency, mainly in three regions namely Kiganjo, Gatei and Gatundu town. Purposive sampling technique was used to select 33 participants in each locality.

Results: The study showed small scale farmers accounted for (98%) who keep 2 to 3 cows. The quality assurance of the products accounted for more than (97%) hence not significant (p>0.05). The record management at the farm level had less than 40% of farmers, hence no significance difference (p>0.05). The milk rejection accounted for 97%, and there was a significant ((p˂0.05)). In contamination with antibiotics and preservatives. Brokers who vend milk in the sub-urban centers in Thika town, Ruiru town, and Nairobi accounted for (14%)... The use of health records was not a priority among the farmers, coupled with irregular withdrawal periods; ranging from 48 hours to 72 hours.

Conclusion: Hygiene standards and safety aspects among dairy farmers in Kiambu County are compromised. Subsequently, there is a need to enforce controls in; informal marketing channels, besides training, infrastructural development, code of practice and inspections to enhance the quality and safety of dairy products along the supply chain.

The study investigate a series of selected heavy metal pollution of soil, the extent of their uptake by Telfairia occidentalis and Amaranthus cruentus as well as their ecological risk around dumpsite in Chanchaga Minna, Niger State, Nigeria. Soil samples were collected at 15 cm depth with the aid of soil auger and vegetable samples were collected from dumpsite and other samples with no activities served as control. The soil samples were collected at random and their physicochemical parameters such as pH, total nitrogen, total phosphorus, organic matter, total carbon and exchangeable cations (i.e., K+, Mg2+ and Na+) using a standard method and concentrations of the heavy metals in soils and vegetables, As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Hg and Pb were analyzed using flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometer (AAS). The ecological health risk assessment from the consumption of these vegetables was calculated using standard methods. The result showed a significant (p-value) increase of AC and TO in test soil samples relative to the control soils. The pH of the soil in dumpsite and control site was 5.93, and 7.35 respectively. Mean concentrations of As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Hg and Pb in the dump site were 6.35, 4.84, 6.67, 7.35, 5.72 and 4.96 mg/kg while the control site were 1.18, 0.28, 1.26, 6.83, 1.19 and 3.54 mg/kg respectively which was below the WHO/FAO limits of As (20), Cd (3.0), Cr (100), Cu (100), Hg (2.00) and Pb (50 mg/kg) for soil. The concentrations of As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Hg and Pb recorded in AC dump site were As (6.13), Cd (3.67), Cr (5.37), Cu (4.28), Hg (3.46), and Pb (4.52) and in TO As (5.67), Cd (3.13), Cr (4.67), Cu (3.65), Hg (3.19) and Pb (4.27 mg/kg) which were above the WHO/FAO permissible limits (0.5, 0.20, 0.3, 3.0, 0.1 and 0.3 mg/kg) respectively for edible vegetable. The concentrations of heavy metals in soils and vegetables from the dumpsite soil were significant (p < 0.05) from the controls. The bioaccumulation factor (BAF) for the vegetable showed that they exclude the element from soil. The Hazard Quotient (HQ) and Hazard index (HI) show that there is no harmful effect since the values obtain were not greater than >1. But continuous consumption can accumulate in the food chain especially for children. This study showed that the soils and vegetables within the vicinity of the dumpsites were polluted by heavy metals which can pose health risk. The study also calls for proper waste management practices and policy implementation.
