Thoughts on Reform of the Supreme Court of Canada
Authors: Lederman Q.C. W. R.
Published: January 2019

In this essay, Professor Lederman expresses some personal views on the reform of the Supreme Court of Canada. He would favour a more sociological approach by the Court to constitutional questions before it, rather than the literal or grammatical approach which has usually been followed, and in such cases would allow the Court to range more widely in the admission of expert and factual evidence. Also favoured is more flexibility in the use of precedent. Dealing with the composition and status of the Court, Professor Lederman disputes the contention that the Court's status gives an unfair advantage to the Federal Government, but nevertheless favours constitutional entrenchment of the Court's position. He opposes the use of the Court for constitutional questions only; rather he believes that it should remain a complete court of appeal for the country. He would slightly increase the number of judges, and alter the proportional regional make-up of the court to give more weight to the West and the Atlantic Provinces. Essentially apolitical nominating commissions are proposed for judicial appointments from the four main regions of Canada. Finally, Professor Lederman proposes some alteration in the rules governing cases to come before the Court, with the judges of the Supreme Court of Canada themselves determining, for the most part, which cases deserve their attention because they raise issues of national importance.
Recent Legislative and Judicial Trends in Consumer Credit in Canada
Authors: Ziegel Jacob S.
Published: January 2019

The use of consumer credit on a large scale has become very widespread in Canada since World War II. Until recently there was only a small body of legislative and judicial law for the protection of the consumer in his dealings with credit grantors. However, this decade has seen the enactment of a large number of statutes for the protection of the consumer in his credit dealings. The writer analyses these new statutes as well as some of the recent judicial decisions in the field.

Production Payments
Authors: Stewart Neil J.
Published: January 2019

Because of the uncertainties and risks associated with natural resource production, special incentives for such production may be provided in taxation law. In Canada and the United States special Income Tax provisions allow for the use of the Production Payment - the sale in advance to a right of production - as such a tax incentive. The writer deals with two types of Production Payment, the Retained payment, and the Carved-Out payment. He sets out the essential features of both and outlines the position of the Tax Courts regarding each. The differences between such payments and normal royalties, and the position of Depletion are discussed. It is concluded that carefully planned production payments remain a useful device for natural resource industry financing.

Authors: Vasileva L. S. , Slivnitsyna N. V. , Lakhman O. L. , Shevchenko O. I.
Published: January 2019

Vibration disease is one of the leading in the structure of occupational diseases. A more detailed study of the pathogenesis, expanding the possibilities of diagnosis of vibration disease, is necessary. The aim of the study is to determine the diagnostic value of stabilometry, quantitative sensory testing and neuroenergocarting in vibration disease associated with the combined effects of local and general vibration. Materials and methods. Two groups of patients were examined: with the diagnosis of vibration disease associated with the combined effect of local and general vibration – 50 people (age 48.7 ± 3.1 years), not in contact with vibration – 30 people (age 49.1 ± 2.8 years). The study of the equilibrium function, the determination of the level of the constant potential of the brain by 12 standard leads and the determination of temperature and pain sensitivity. Statistical processing of the results was carried out using the software package “Statistica 6.0” (StatSoft Inc., USA). Differences were considered statistically significant at p < 0.05. Results. In vibration disease, the vertical stance of patients is more unstable than in patients with no contact with vibration. In patients with vibration disease, there is a decrease in the threshold of cold sensitivity and an increase in the threshold of thermal sensitivity and thermal pain compared to the control group. According to our data, the increased level of permanent potential in patients with vibration disease is observed in the central (22.7 (12.6; 30.7) mV) and right central (20.4 (11.5; 27.1) mV), also the average level of permanent capacity in this group is increased – 17.1 (8.4; 25.8) mV.

Conclusion. The results obtained indicate the involvement of the neurosensory complex united by single thalamic and cortical centers in the pathological process and confirm the diagnostic value of the methods used.

Authors: Lezhnev D. A. , Davydov D. V. , Dutova M. O.
Published: January 2019

Background. Nasal anthropometry is an important aspect of maxillofacial and plastic surgery especially in the preoperative stage of rhinoplasty. Multislice computed tomography (MSCT) permits to assess quantitative the variant nasal anatomy using measuring.

Aims: to determine the possibilities of MSCT-anthropometry in nasal configuration grade.

Materials and methods. We performed a proand retrospective analysis of MSCT data of maxillofacial region of 50 patients (aged 35 ± 10.7 years old) with changes of nasal height and width and 35 women (32.9 ± 8.4 years old) with normal nasal configuration. The variant anatomy consists in long nose (n = 16), short nose (n = 17), wide nose (n = 17). The nasal height was measured from the nasal root (nasion) to the nasal base (subnasion), the nasal width is the distance between the most lateral aspects of the alae nasi. Besides, the nasal index was calculated. The descriptive statistics of obtained data were presented by mean and standard deviation (SD), also the multiple regression analysis was used. Values of p = 0.005 were considered statistically significant.

Results. The results showed that the average nasal height in patients with normal configuration is 51.9 ± 2.63 mm, with short nose – 45.2 ± 1.36 mm, with long nose – 60.3 ± 1.28 mm. The mean nasal widths are 34.9 ± 1.88 mm in normal configuration, 38.8±3.57 in wide nose. The nasal indexes were calculated, their features were detected. These obtained results correlate with anthropometric data of different studies.

Conclusions. MSCT-anthropometry is an objective imaging method of variant nasal anatomy that could provide improving quality of diagnostics of patients seeking rhinoplasty and choose a surgical approach.

The main place in the diagnosis of obstructive jaundice belongs to radiation research methods. Their choice is determined by the nature of the disease, efficacy, safety and cost of the study. The article describes the computer-tomographic symptoms of malignant and benign diseases of the hepatopancreatoduodenal region.

To study the possibilities of multispiral computed tomography in the diagnosis of diseases, the results of examination of 62 patients with manifestations of mechanical jaundice syndrome were analyzed on the basis of the surgical Department of the Irkutsk city clinical hospital N 1. The mean age of the examined patients was 56 ± 4.5 years. In the ratio of 2:1.4 women dominated. Biliary obstruction of benign genesis prevailed, which was found in 44 (61.1 %) patients, among which the most common cause was: choledocholithiasis (34 (54.8 %) patients), choledoch strictures (9 (12.5 %) patients) periampular diverticula (2 (1.9 %) patients). The reason for the obstruction of malignant genesis (18 (38.9 %) patients) were: adenocarcinomas of the head of the pancreas (11 (29.0 %) patients), bile duct tumor (5 (8.0 %) patients), volume formations of the duodenum (2 (3.2 %) patients).

Authors: Tyuryumina E. E. , Chizhova E. A.
Published: January 2019

The work presents the analysis of ultrasound diagnostic of traumatic hematomas of the spleen in 12 patients after blunt abdominal trauma. Traumatic injuries of large (4 patients) and giant (5 patients) sizes prevailed. Only 3 patients had medium sized traumatic lesion. Ultrasound examination was performed for all patients as a primary procedure and for dynamic observation. We tracked evolution of traumatic spleen injuries and identified four stages of pathological process in case of aseptic development: the stage of “fresh hemorrhage”, the stage of “formed clot”, the stage of “aseptic lysis of the clot”, the stage of “connective tissue organization”. We determined the evidence of pyogenesis of spleen hematomas, identified the stage “bacterial lysis of the clot” and stage of “forming capsules”. We determined the indications and contraindications for the minimally invasive treatment of spleen hematoma. Percutaneous evacuation of the spleen hematoma was performed in all patients. In four cases of minimally invasive treatment was puncture. In one patient the treatment was completed with a single puncture, in 3 patients – with a double one. Drainage of spleen hematomas was performed in 8 patients. We analyzed the results of minimally invasive treatment of traumatic injuries of the spleen under ultrasound control. Minimally invasive treatment was successful in 11 patients. Only 1 patient was operated for post-traumatic aneurysm of the splenic artery due to the continuing bleeding into hematoma.
Rare case of Visceral form of Infectious Mononucleosis in Irkutsk Region
Authors: Bobrova N. K. , Zorkaltseva E. Yu.
Published: January 2019

Infectious mononucleosis (MI) is caused by the Herpes viridae family of viruses. Currently, most researchers assign a leading role to the Epstein-Barr virus. In present time there are no unified clinical classification of infection mononucleosis, but many authors recognize the visceral form which involves cardiovascular system, adrenal glands, lungs, central neural system and others organs. The article describes a clinical case of MI in the 28-year-old patient. She applied for medical help with complaints of fever up to 39 °C, weakness in the legs and arms, weight loss and received symptomatic treatment on an outpatient department. After 2 months on the background of deterioration, she was hospitalized in an infectious diseases hospital with severe symptoms of intoxication, lymphoproliferative syndrome, myocarditis, pericarditis, hepatitis, polyneuropathy with quadriparesis, hypochromic anemia, thrombocytopenia. She was consulted by an oncologist and diagnosed with cervical cancer. Laboratory confirmation was obtained – Epstein-Barr virus was detected in the blood. Against the background of antiviral therapy, a regression of clinical symptoms was achieved in a week. The patient was transferred to a oncological hospital. It is recommended to examine patients with high fever of unknown etiology on myocardial infarction for the timely appointed etiotropic therapy.
Assessment of Potential Cytotoxicity During Vital Observation at the BioStation CT
Authors: Trukhan I. S. , Dremina Т. N , Lozovskaya E. A. , Shurygina I. A.
Published: January 2019

In recent decades, the methods based on the cell technologies have become more relevant for medical and pharmaceutical research. In this paper, weconsidered the BioStation CT using for continuous in vivo observation of Ehrlich ascitic carcinoma cell culture under the influence of two active substances in different concentrations (from 1.25 to 20 mg/l). As a result of the carcinoma cells condition monitoring for 4.5 days it was shown that substance No 2 does not affect the cell viability while substance No 1 causes the carcinoma cell death, and this active substance effect is dose-dependent. Photodocumentation at two-hour intervals allowed us to research differences in the rate of cell destruction (intensive disintegration in the first day with further stabilization of the living cells number or gradual cell death throughout the experiment), as well as differences in the time of 50 % mortality reaching. Thus in the study it was demonstrated that due to the fact that the BioStation CT combines the properties of a CO2 -incubator and a microscope this device is promising for toxicological studies and significantly expands the detection possibilities of processes occurring with living cells for a sufficiently long time period making possible further analysis of the cell behavior characteristics throughout the experiment, and that is fundamentally different from the systems allowing only the final result fixation of long-term active substance exposure.

“Ata este cordón escarlata”. El color rojo y la identidad en los relatos bíblicos de Rajab y Jezabel
Authors: D'Amico Monascal Claudia
Published: January 2019

La mujer extranjera es, dentro de la narración bíblica, una de las mayores amenazas para el orden y la identidad del pueblo de Israel. En las figuras de Rahab y Jezabel encontramos dos maneras distintas de hacer frente a la alteridad femenina: mientras que Rahab tiene un lugar dentro de la comunidad, Jezabel permanece como lo absoluto otro. Dos motivos iconográficos juegan un papel relevante en la construcción literaria de ambos personajes. Por una parte, la presencia de la ventana como lugar de acción desde el que las mujeres participan en la narración y, por otra, el empleo de un detalle cromático que parece sellar sus destinos: tanto en el lazo escarlata (שָׁנִי) que salva a Rahab durante la conquista de Jericó como en la sangre de Jezabel (דָּם) que salpica sobre los muros cuando es asesinada (2 Reyes 9,33), parecen señalar las sentencias de vida o de muerte que las aguarda.La lectura que aquí se propone pretende poner en relación ambas historias a partir del uso de la ventana y del color rojo y su posible significado dentro de las dinámicas de inclusión y exclusión que operan dentro del texto.

Authors: Clinton Virginia , Walkington Candace
Published: January 2019

Two common interest-enhancement approaches in mathematics curriculum design are illustrations and personalization of problems to students’ interests. The objective of these experiments is to test a variety of illustrations and personalization approaches. In the illustrations experiment, students (N = 265) were randomly assigned to lessons with story problems containing decorative illustrations, contextual illustrations, diagrammatic illustrations, misleading illustrations, or no illustrations (only text; control). Students’ problem-solving performance and attitudes were not affected by illustration condition, but learning was better in the control compared to contextual illustrations. In the personalization experiment, students (N = 223) were randomly assigned to story problems that were either personalized based on: a survey of their interests, their choice of interest topics, a randomly-assigned interest topic, or the original non-personalized story problem (control). The findings indicated there were benefits for choice personalization both for performance in the problem set as well as on a later learning assessment.

Modeling epistemic communities
Authors: Reijula Samuli , Kuorikoski Jaakko
Published: January 2019

We review prominent modeling approaches in social epistemology aimed at understanding the functioning of epistemic communities. We provide a philosophy-of-science perspective on the use and interpretation of such simple models, and highlight the need for better integration with relevant findings from other research fields studying collective problem solving.
A Case Study of Production Practices and User Participation in an Advertising-Free Digital News Media Organisation
Authors: Girija Sreekala
Published: January 2019

The rising adoption of the Internet in India has contributed to the growth of digital news media organisations. Unlike the traditional advertiser-subsidised business model based on audience commodification, some of these new media firms rely on technology to offer news as a public service under an ad-less business model. Using a case study of Newslaundry, this article critically analyses whether interactive online technologies can help create media organisations untainted by the economic rationalities of capitalism. Following a mixed methodology approach that utilises data from 25 interviews with the Newslaundry team and mainstream journalists as well as a variety of text materials, the study finds that news loses its public good character due to Newslaundry’s efforts to make profits. The analysis suggests that the interactive nature of the Internet does not automatically lead to democratic participation.

Introduction: In Nepal, cervical cancer is the most common female cancer. Unfortunately, there is no uniform effective screening system available all around the country. The objective of this study is to evaluate the cytology, Visual Inspection with Acetic Acid and with Lugolâ€™s Iodine alone or in combination to detect a pre-cancerous lesion in rural Nepal.Methods: It is an analytical cross-sectional study. Convenience sampling technique was used to select participants who were apparently healthy, married, non- pregnant women of aged 20-65 years for cervical cancer screening program. Screening tests were performed on all eligible women (n=2143) after socio-demographic and reproductive health data collection. A biopsy was applied as a gold standard test. Cross-tabulations were used to describe the test sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value at a 95% confidence interval. Diagnostic odds ratio was also calculated. Results: A majority, 2143 (94%), of women accepted and participated in this study. The sensitivity vs specificity of cytology, VIA, and VILI was 57.1% vs 98.3%, 71.4% vs 88.8% and 78.6% vs 85.1%, and of the co-testing of â€˜Both positive VIA and VILIâ€™ and â€˜Either positive VIA or VILIâ€™ was 64.3% vs 85.7% and 90.1% vs 83.7% respectively. Negative predictive value of all tests exceeded 99.7%. Cytology had the highest Diagnostic odds ratio (64.9), followed by the co-test â€˜Either positive VIA or VILIâ€™ (27.7).Conclusions: Cervical cancer screening by co-testing â€˜Either positive VIA or VILIâ€™ is more useful than cytology; VIA and or VILI are easy, safe, feasible and well-accepted tests in a low resource setting, Nepal.
Dental Age Assessment using Demirjian’s Eight Teeth Method and Willems Method in a Tertiary Hospital
Authors: Agrawal Nitin Kumar , Hackman Lucina , Dahal Samarika
Published: January 2019

Introduction: Age estimation is an important aspect in forensic anthropology, as it can aid in the identification of the deceased, and can be used in cases of immigration, child abuse and criminal prosecution in living individuals. Dental age estimation is considered reliable and accurate, since tooth development is least affected by environmental factors compared to somatic growth.Methods: In total, 150 pre-orthodontic treatment radiographs from healthy individuals were assessed. These individuals were aged between 8 to 19 years. Dental age for these individuals was calculated by two methods: Demirjian’s eight teeth method and Willems method. For Willems method, seven teeth on the left side of mandible (except the third molar) were staged according to Demirjian’s staging, and for Demirjian’s eight teeth method, all eight teeth were staged.Results: The mean chronological ages were 13.6961±1.94384 years in males and 13.9204±2.63541 years in females. The mean estimated ages by Demirjian’s eight teeth method were 12.1856±1.73478 years and 11.7906±2.32344 years in males and females respectively. Similarly, the mean estimated ages by Willems method were 12.8958±1.46838 years in males and 12.6926±2.27807 years in females.Conclusions: Willems method and Demirjian’s eight teeth method underestimated the chronological age in the given population. Both methods showed excellent correlation with chronological age indicating their applicability in dental age estimation, with development of population specific scores.
Early Undifferentiated Arthritis: A Developing Country Perspective from Nepal
Authors: Vaidya Binit , Baral Rikesh , Nakarmi Shweta
Published: January 2019

Early undifferentiated arthritis is a group of inflammatory joint disease of less than 3 months duration that do not classify under any of the specific rheumatic or connective tissue disorder. Previously, inflammatory arthritis used to be treated only when there was a clear evidence of damage or deformity occurring with it. Use of disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs were considered potentially harmful early in the course of arthritis which could be self-limiting. However, with the abundance of data on outcomes of early arthritis and identification of factors that can help to predict those outcomes lead to earlier use of such DMARDs. Better understanding of serological tests like anti-CCP antibodies and imaging modalities like high frequency ultrasound with power doppler and magnetic resonance imaging has increased the diagnostic and prognostic yield of such early arthritis cases. It is now imperative that the risk be assessed early in the course of disease and early DMARDs be instituted for better outcome in these cases.This review analyses the historical evolution of evidence in the management of early undifferentiated arthritis and summarises the treatment approach, monitoring and disease outcomes till date.
