Published: April 2022

Background and Aim: Military personnel, parallel to appropriate personality traits to the military environment, need virtues and character strengths(CS) that contain values appropriate to the environment. We designed a model that examines the impact of comprehensive virtues and CS in reducing psychological distress. Methods: The present study is an SEM study. The sample community is an available example of 410 persons of military men in Tehran. We used a demographic information questionnaire, Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K-10), and Virtues Inventory in Action (VIA-120). Results: findings showed virtues and CS of wisdom, justice, humanity, and transcendence (except for spirituality) are significantly related to psychological distress. With increasing CS, psychological distress in employees decreased, but with increasing virtues, psychological distress in employees increased. The virtues and CS of temperance and courage were not significantly associated with psychological distress. Conclusions: According to the results of this study, military services should pay more attention to the virtues and CS effective in reducing staff distress and strengthening these traits in them.
Comparative AFM Studies on the Morphology of Conducting Polymers/DNA Templated Nanowires
Authors:   Chemistry Department, Sokoto State University, Sokoto, Nigeria, Ibrahim Yahaya
Published: April 2022

Comparative morphological studies of three conductive polymers (polyimidazole (Plm), polyindole (Pln), and polypyrrole (Ppy)) templated with deoxyribonucleic (DNA) were carried out on silicon (Si)/mica substrate with the aim of finding more insight about the extent of mixing of the polymers with the DNA and the size of the nanowires formed. Atomic force microscope (AFM) height images of bare DNA on pre-treated substrates revealed a two-dimensional network structure with an average height of approximately 1.60 ± 0.01 nm; which is close to the double stranded DNA chain height. Plm/DNA exhibits globular and agglomerate nanostructures for the concentrated polymers, while the diluted form reveals a dispersed network with a diameter of 3 - 5 nm mostly. In Pln/DNA, the AFM images show dense networks of nanowires in their concentrated form, while the diluted samples displayed individual single wires with regular and smooth morphologies. Statistical analysis of the nanowires AFM heights revealed the dominance of wires with diameters in the range of 3 - 4 nm. The most common nanowire height range was 9 - 10 nm. Comparing the three polymer AFM studies, it can be said that polypyrrole has the highest nanowires range of 9 - 10 nm, then Plm/DNA (3 - 5 nm) and the least is Pln/DNA with 3 - 4 nm range. From the nanowire sizes and morphologies (uniform, smooth and continuous), it can be concluded that both polymers have good potentials for DNA templating and application in nanoelectronic devices as they can be aligned on nanoelectrodes for passage of electricity.
Las viviendas para el nuevo obrero industrial. Empresariado e intervención urbana como práctica de higiene social. Chile, 1930-1940
Authors: Venegas Valdebenito Hernán , Morales Barrientos Diego , Videla Bravo Enzo
Published: April 2022

Diversas iniciativas empresariales en la década de 1930 desarrollaron, en Chile, una política intensa y sistemática de asentamiento de sus trabajadores. Considerando la compañía papelera de la comuna de Puente Alto y la cementera de La Calera, se evalúa la génesis de un modelo que significó no solo la micro urbanización de áreas rurales con la construcción de poblaciones higiénicas para obreros, sino la creación de una red de control extensivo, donde cada familia quedó constreñida a la vigilancia empresarial. Para comprender esto se analizan debates relacionados con la vivienda obrera y los anhelos de reforma social contenidos en las corrientes higienistas, las que representaron una de las matrices intelectuales necesarias para examinar la disposición, orientación y paisaje de algunos barrios obreros entre 1930 y 1940.
Representaciones del poder en la Patagonia argentina. El presidente Arturo Frondizi y la Segunda Conquista al Desierto (1958-1962)
Authors: Ruffini Martha
Published: April 2022

Durante la presidencia de Arturo Frondizi (1958-1962) la Patagonia ocupó un lugar central. Al asignarle al sur un rol protagónico en la industrialización del país, Frondizi ubicó a la Patagonia dentro de la historia nacional y la asoció con las nociones de «desierto» y «civilización», pero reactualizándolas y otorgándoles renovada función. En el discurso, insertó su gestión como continuidad histórica de la campaña militar al «desierto» de 1879, que puso fin al dominio indígena sobre el sur. Pero esta perspectiva se entrecruzaría discursivamente con la imagen de la Patagonia —recurso dominante a partir de la segunda mitad del siglo xx.

Published: April 2022

Background:  Takayasu arteritis (TKA) is a rare large vessel vasculitis occurring in young adults of less than 50 year of age. We analyse the clinical, radiological features, and treatment regimens in Pakistani patients presenting to a tertiary care center. Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional analysis of TKA patients done at the Rheumatology department of Fatima Memorial Hospital. A comprehensive evaluation of clinical, laboratory, radiographic features and treatment regimens was carried out. Results: A consecutive cohort of 18 patients, with 13 patients (72%) of female gender was studied. Mean age of the cohort was 35.94±2.7 years. A mean delay of 2.32±0.43 years between symptoms and final diagnosis was reported, attributed to alternate diagnosis in 57.1% and late presentation in 42.8% cases. Limb claudication (44.4%), absent pulses (38.9%), were the common initial manifestation. Hypertension (61.5%), blood pressure discrepancy between arms (88.9%) and bruit (72.2%) over major vessels were common systemic features. As per angiographic classification, Type V (44.4%), and Type I (33.3%), were most common pattern of disease in the cohort. Subclavian artery (72.2%), renal artery (33.3%), iliofemoral arteries (27.8%), and coronary artery involvement (16.7%) were the common lesions. Coronary artery lesion was higher in females (p=0.52) while renal artery lesion in males (p=0.27). There was no statistically significant difference in involvement of vessels according to gender (p >0.05). Conclusion: Type V and Type I are the common pattern of TKA. Limb claudication was the most common initial manifestation. Renal artery involvement was seen more commonly in males while coronary artery involvement more commonly in females.

Authors: Malik Hajra Arshad , Khalid Maham , Sabih Rayyan , Khan Hina , Asrar Aamir
Published: April 2022

We present a case of a 65-year-old Pakistani woman who underwent an uneventful standard left phacoemulsification with posterior chamber intra-ocular lens placement for a mature senile cataract. She was observed to develop post-operative astigmatism secondary to a tilted intra-ocular lens and required repeat surgical intervention to correct the malposition. Per-operatively, the lens was found to be defective with a fixed bend at the haptic-optic junction which necessitated the need for an intra-ocular lens exchange procedure that restored adequate vision. The study highlighted defects in the structural integrity of intra-ocular lenses as an important differential to consider in such cases, and established lens replacement as a successful intervention to improve visual outcome.

Published: April 2022

Background: Giant cell tumour (GCT) is a primary benign, locally aggressive bone tumour. Treatment is surgical however, denosumab has been increasingly used as a treatment in recurrent or unresectable locally advanced GCT because of its effect in reducing tumour size. Denosumab treated GCT can exhibit a wide array of histopathological features resulting in diagnostic problems for pathologists. Our study aimed at identifying these histopathological features to aid pathologists in reaching a correct diagnosis. Methods: Our study included 20 patients of biopsy-proven GCT cases treated with denosumab. We received specimens for histopathological examination in our institution from January 2018 to March 2020. The demographic and clinical data of these patients were retrieved from the Health Management Information System (HMIS). The slides were retrieved and studied for histopathological changes. Results: The mean age of patients in our study was 29.5 years. There were 11 males and 9 females. Distal radius was most commonly involved bone. On histopathological examination, ovoid to spindle mononuclear stromal cells were seen. Total absence of osteoclast like giant cells was seen in 10 (50%) cases, whereas 3 (15%) cases showed a marked reduction in osteoclast like giant cells. Conclusion: Denosumab treated GCT of bone can exhibit a wide spectrum of histopathological features. Pathologists need to be mindful of these features. Correlation of histopathological findings with clinical history and radiological features is important to prevent erroneous diagnosis. Treatment history of patients with denosumab is essential as incorrect diagnosis can be made if the history of denosumab treatment is not provided.

Published: April 2022

The malignancy-related coagulation and secondary pulmonary embolism are common in sarcomas, whereas tumour embolism and pulmonary venous embolism are extremely rare. It is crucial to distinguish thromboembolism and tumour embolism in cancer patients. Physio pathologic basis of these two entities is also different. Knowing the type of embolism changes medical management since tumour embolism is unresponsive to anticoagulant or thrombolytic treatments.  In especially patients with disseminated metastases, venous tumour embolism may occur by reaching tumour cells to the pulmonary venous circulation. This case is the fifth retrograde left atrial cardiac tumour embolisms in the literature.  CT images and also follow-up images were descriptive. We report a case of a 59-year-old female patient who underwent amputation caused by extremity chondrosarcoma accompanied by clinical and radiological findings. She had multiple lung metastases and also had a right inferior pulmonary venous embolism. The embolism reached the left atrium via retrograde way during the three-month follow-up. HU value was 77 in the first CT, while 81 HU after three months. Pecking and vascular enlargement were also observed in CT. Echocardiography showed an appearance of iso-echogenic heterogenic. CT findings and HU values were compatible with tumour embolism in light of the echocardiographic findings.

Authors: Ali Sheikh Muhammad Ebad , Abbasi Ahmed Nadeem , Zahoor Naila
Published: April 2022

Background: The spinal column is a major site of neoplastic proliferation where decisions regarding surgical or radiotherapeutic intervention are based upon spinal instability neoplastic score (SINS). A novel technique named ‘Intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) was proposed where surgery and radiotherapy were performed in the same session. During our literature search, we found no published systematic review or meta-analysis regarding the outcomes of IORT for spinal tumors. This review aims to provide the knowledge regarding the outcomes of IORT for spinal tumors to assist surgeons and radiologists. Methods: PubMed, Google Scholar, Cochrane library for trials reporting the outcomes of IORTin spinal tumors. The search terms were “outcomes”, “Intraoperative radiotherapy”, “IORT”, “spine neoplasia” and “spine metastasis” in different combinations. Standardized mean difference (SMD) in VAS for pain relief while proportionality for neurological improvement, local progression, and toxicities were plotted on forest plots, respectively. Results: Eight studies comprising 610 patients were included with two conference proceedings. SMD for VAS was -1.715 while proportionality for neurological improvement, local progression, and toxicities were 0.9 (90%), 0.03 (3%), and 0.121 (12.1%), respectively. Conclusion: Pain relief was evident by a decrease in VAS scores in the majority of patients. The majority showed neurological improvement and regained motor and sensory functions while an overwhelming population showed local tumor control with lesser patients developing tumor progression and radiation-induced toxicities. Short follow-ups and the absence of randomized trials advocates the need for further clinical researches to confirm the outcomes of IORT in spinal tumors.

Authors: Aziz Anbreen , Jaffer Moneezhay , Qaiser Aasma , Siddique Lubna , Ali Sarah
Published: April 2022

Background: To explore barriers and facilitators to write good quality items for undergraduate dental assessments. Methods: A qualitative case study was conducted from Feb–April 2021. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with a purposive sample of eighteen item writers from a public-sector dental institute of Rawalpindi, Pakistan. The data were transcribed verbatim and thematically analyzed to extract themes regarding barriers and facilitators to write good quality items. All quality assurance procedures of qualitative research were ensured during the research process. Results: Five themes related to barriers and three themes related to facilitators to write good quality items emerged from the data. The participants reported more barriers such as lack of frequent training and lack of peer review and feedback. Other barriers were demotivation due to lack of acknowledgement or monetary incentives, lack of content and construct expertise, clinical workload, and contextual barriers such as lack of internet facility, outdated library, and lack of place and time allocation for item construction. Facilitators were availability of peer review, feedback from post-hoc analysis, motivation due to the senior designation, clinical experience, and ample time for basic sciences faculty. Conclusion: Frequent item writing training, strong peer review process, pre-exam item vetting by the dental education department, and institutional improvements such as striving for content experts, time and place allocation for item construction, internet facility, updated library, and equal distribution of workload among faculty could enhance the quality of items. Moreover, ways to inculcate motivation among item writers such as appreciation or monetary incentives could be used to improve the quality of undergraduate assessments.

Published: April 2022

With the launch of the first artificial satellite, Sputnik, back in 1957, to life on Earth being socio-economically dependent on space technologies, we have come a very long way and with this comes several problems, one being extra-terrestrial pollution. The 1967 Outer Space Treaty has only one provision – Article IX – which merely puts an obligation to avoid ‘harmful contamination’ of outer space. There is nothing in the treaty or elsewhere to suggest the meaning of this term and the extent of protection offered by Article IX, thereby creating a lacuna. The article tries to evaluate whether the interpretation of the term ‘harmful contamination’ has evolved to envisages the implementation of the international environmental law regime for a holistic protection of the outer space environment.
In this context, the meaning of ‘harmful contamination’ is analysed as intended by the drafters to highlight the shortcomings. Taking into account the evolving international environmental and space law jurisprudence, the article analyses whether the shortcomings can be addressed by harmoniously interpreting Article IX with the existing environmental law regime. Different tools of treaty interpretation are used to examine the evolving interpretation of the term ‘harmful contamination’ to provide an insight into what the lex ferenda be vis-à-vis application of Article IX in the protection of outer space environment.

Published: April 2022

Chief Executive Officer is the senior most leader in charge of managing an organization. This paper reviews peer-reviewed empirical studies on Chief Executive Officers, and extends the empirical arguments to Generalist and Specialist Chief Executive Officers explicitly, and in the process conceptualizes three schools of thought: Technical, Managerial and Intrapreneurial. These empirical arguments have been contrasted with dependent, independent, moderating and mediating variables from the leadership literature. Additionally, the empirical studies have been matched with two broad and three narrow leadership domains, to provide insight for further research in the area of corporate leadership. This paper indicates that Generalist Chief Executive Officers and Specialist Chief Executive Officers have different standpoints for different reasons.

El objetivo del estudio fue cuantificar el carbono en sistemas agroforestales combinadas con cacao (Theobroma cacao) en cuatro distritos de Madre de Dios. Se midió el carbono del suelo, hojarasca y vegetación, mediante metodologías aceptadas por el ICRAF. Para ello, se evaluaron cuatro sistemas agroforestales con cacao en diferentes edades (8, 10, 12 y 15 años). Se utilizaron ecuaciones alométricas para estimar el contenido de biomasa aérea y el carbono almacenado. El sistema con mayor acumulación de carbono aéreo fue la parcela con cacao de 12 años (131,83 t/ha), con Bertholletia excelsa (castaña), Jacaranda copaia (achihua) y Schizolobium parahyba (pashaco). El cacao con un distanciamiento de 5 m × 5 m y las demás especies tuvieron un distanciamiento de 10 m x 10 m. Se concluye que las diferentes edades del sistema agroforestal combinado con cacao presentan distintos niveles de almacenamiento de carbono total.

La industria maderera en la región de Madre de Dios, Perú, es una de las actividades económicas más importantes y produce gran cantidad de residuos, entre ellas las cortezas, fuentes potenciales de taninos. El objetivo fue extraer y caracterizar fisicoquímicamente los taninos de la corteza de caoba (Swietenia macrophylla) y cedro (Cedrela odorata) colectados de árboles maduros, en poblaciones localizadas del distrito de Tambopata - Madre de Dios. Los extractos tánicos fueron obtenidos por extracción sucesiva con solución acuosa salina, y sometidos a análisis para determinar su solubilidad, color, densidad y pruebas de identificación compuestos tánicos. Los resultados mostraron que la corteza de caoba presentó mayor concentración de taninos que la del cedro, alcanzando ambos 46% y 42%, respectivamente; además, el extracto tánico de la corteza de cedro presentó densidad de 0,972 g/mL y la de caoba un 0,976 g/mL. En conclusión, las cortezas de caoba y cedro son fuentes potenciales de taninos del tipo pirogálicos para la industria de productos naturales.

Published: April 2022

La producción de cuero vegetal en la región de Madre de Dios en base a látex de shiringa es afectado por la escasa aplicación de técnicas y manejo de disolventes para el azufre. El presente estudio tuvo como objetivo evaluar las dosis de disolventes (aceite de castaña, vaselina, sulfuro de carbono y agua) para el azufre y dos técnicas de elaboración de cuero vegetal. Aplicamos un DCA con arreglo factorial (A×B) 4 × 2. Asimismo, efectuamos el ANOVA conforme a los procedimientos GLM del paquete estadístico SPSS para las variables pegajosidad y textura del cuero vegetal, y así determinar significancia entre los tratamientos estudiados. Entre los resultados destaca que la variable textura, fue afectada significativamente por efecto de los factores diluyentes y tipo de secado (p<0.05). Además, la variable pegajosidad fue afectada por el factor tipo de secado (p<0.05), no encontrándose diferencias significativas (p>0.05) en la variable pegajosidad bajo el efecto del factor diluyentes. Se concluye que el mejor solvente para el azufre es la vaselina (de naturaleza apolar) con un porcentaje de solubilidad de 18,8%.

Madre de Dios es reconocida como la “Capital de la Biodiversidad” y es considerada como una de las zonas con mayor biodiversidad de la Tierra (Del Aguila Feijoo & Walker, 2018; Swenson et al., 2011). Sin embargo, múltiples factores, principalmente antrópicos, generan la perdida acelerada de los bosques (Garate-Quispe et al., 2021). Siendo la minería aurífera, tala ilegal y la agricultura las principales fuentes de deforestación en Madre de Dios (Alarcon Aguirre et al., 2021). De estos, la minería aurífera es considerada como la principal fuente de perdida de bosques (Kalamandeen et al., 2020) y la que genera los mayores impactos negativos en los ecosistemas (Gerson et al., 2022).
