Published: September 2022

Flexible electronic devices find wide application in wearable electronics and foldable gadgets. This article reports chemical vapor deposited (CVD) few-layers graphene for a solid-state flexible supercapacitor device. Raman spectroscopy analysis reveals up to five layers in the graphene samples. Polyvinyl alcohol-Na2SO4 hydrogel membrane is used as a gel polymer electrolyte (GPE). 50 nm thick silver (Ag) deposited on polyethylene tere­phthalate (PET) through E-beam deposition served as the flexible current collector for the device. Galvanostatic charge-discharge (GCD) executed on the fabricated device to ana­lyze its electrochemical performance yielded a specific areal capacitance of 15.3 mF cm-2 at 0.05 mA cm-2 current density. The obtained power density of the fabricated device is 0.53 µWh cm-2 at a power density of 25 µW cm-2.
DETERMINING THE EFFECT OF STRESS AND JOB BURNOUT ON THE LIFE SATISFACTION OF NURSING STAFF
Authors: Wilczek-Rużyczka Ewa , Zaczyk Iwona
Published: September 2022

Both job satisfaction and a nurse’s individual traits may have an impact on nurses’ life satisfaction. Given the relatively high level of stress associated with the nursing profession, account should be taken of the fact that numerous destructive factors also affect life satisfaction. In the nursing profession commitment, concern for patient welfare, a high sense of responsibility for the life and health of another person causes both an excessive psychological and physical burden, which in many cases leads to broadly defined stress and in consequence to burnout syndrome. The aim of the paper was directed toward the analysis of stress, burnout and life satisfaction and demonstrating the relationship between these variables in a group of surgical and psychiatric nurses.

Two groups of equal size participated in the study. They included 100 surgical nurses (average age: 47/average years of experience: 25), 100 psychiatric nurses (average age: 42/average years of experience: 19) employed by hospitals situated in the south of Poland. Research tools: occupational burnout – the Maslach Burnout Inventory, stress - the Stevan Hobfoll's Self-Assessment Questionnaire to measure stress, life satisfaction – Satisfaction with Life Scale, and questionnaire of socio-demographic data were administered.

Stress and occupational burnout are shown to only have an impact on the life satisfaction of surgical nurses. The less burnt-out nurses felt with regard to lowered sense of personal achievement, the higher their life satisfaction levels were. In the context of work, stress plays a role of mediator in the relationship between life satisfaction and the second dimension of occupational burnout – depersonalization in both surveyed groups.

A sense of life satisfaction is desired by every human being and may refer to different aspects of their lives such as: work, income, family and friends. In reality job satisfaction has a significant influence on the individual’s feeling of life satisfaction. The obtained results clearly indicate that some action needs to be taken in order to prevent professional burnout. It is therefore sensible to start action already at university and include the subject of occupational burnout, its causes, and ways of coping with it in the teaching curriculum.

Published: September 2022

The aim of the study was to show changes in EEG during exercise in attention states A, warm-up W, submaximal effort E, and recovery states R, during Neurofeedback-EEG training.

Examined 10 track and field athletes and 10 swimmers based on EEG measurements during physical exercise. The track and field athletes underwent 20 Neurofeedback-EEG training sessions on the elliptic ergometer and swimmers on the swimming ergometer, with speed measurement. All the measurements were performed twice: before and after Neurofeedback-EEG training.

Participation in Neurofeedback-EEG training combined with physical exercise change brain activity and result in a substantial modulation of the spectral amplitude within the sources located near the frontal lobe, sensory cortex, motor cortex, and anterior parietal and occipital lobes. However, depending on the movement speed, the differences in EEG are statistically insignificant in many points of the skull, on the frontal, parietal, temporal, and occipital lobes.

Participation in Neurofeedback-EEG training result in a substantial modulation of the spectral amplitude within the sources located near the frontal lobe, sensory cortex, motor cortex, and anterior parietal and occipital lobes. The changes are related to the movement speed and the points of the skull related to the activity of specific brain areas.

Published: September 2022

Play helps facilitate a child's development and learning, such as social, emotional, and cognitive skills. Delayed or abnormal development of play behaviors can inevitably influence the lifelong development of these skills. Children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) cannot often understand and produce play actions. This study aimed to measure the effectiveness of each of the two programs: video modeling and reciprocal imitation, in teaching children with ASD play skills.

The sample consisted of 18 children with ASD aged 5 to 8 years old, and divided into two experimental groups: the first group included 9 children with ASD who received a reciprocal imitation program: their mean age is 6.2 years, standard deviation = 0.7, and their mean IQ ratio is 87.23 with a SD = of 5.6. The second group included 9 children with ASD who received a video modeling program: their mean age is 6.7 years, standard deviation = 0.9, and their mean IQ ratio is 89.10 with SD = of 6.1. The children in both groups belong to two private primary schools associated with this project in Kenitra, Morocco.

The results showed that both methods improved play skills in these children with different levels of progress, according to age, autism level, and program type. There were statistically significant differences in the post-test in favor of the video modeling group. Visual stimuli are highly solicited by children with autism. The durability of the effect of training by both methods was verified by comparing the post-test scores and the follow-up measure. The follow-up measurement revealed no significant differences between post-test and follow-up for either group. In general, video modeling was more effective than reciprocal imitation in developing play skills.

It was found that learning by modeling the behaviors of peers (reciprocal imitation) is one of the effective methods, in teaching and training of most children with ASD for many skills, however video modeling is more effective, because it is based on the regular teaching of measurable behavioral units, and each skill is reduced to small steps.
DIFFERENCES BETWEEN MEN AND WOMEN IN COGNITIVE STRATEGIES APPLIED IN MENTAL ROTATION TASKS
Authors: Zawadzka Ewa
Published: September 2022

This article aims to outline the differences between men and women in cognitive strategies applied in mental rotation task. Mental rotation is recognised among the fundamental processes of spatial thinking. Good ability to assess the spatial relations between oneself and the surrounding makes it possible to take decisions quickly and to act effectively. Mental rotation tasks can be performed in various ways, depending on their type, and with a use of different cognitive strategies. The study explores characteristics of mental rotation task performance specific to women and men. The differences observed in this area are determined by multiple factors. It was pointed out that interactions between biological and environmental factors are of major importance for effective performance in mental rotation tasks. The discussion also focuses on task characteristics possibly determining different results achieved by men and women, and potentially affecting the choice of specific strategies applied in mental rotation tasks. Subsequently, the article reviews the evidence suggesting differences in cognitive strategies used during mental rotation tasks by women and men. It is also pointed out that, in the context of the observed sex-related differences, the type of strategies used are associated with methods of assessing visuospatial material and with task characteristics. The final part presents data from neuroimaging studies investigating brain activity recorded during performance of this type of tasks. The evidence was discussed with reference to sex differences in cognitive strategies applied in mental rotation tasks.
AGENCY AND FREEDOM
Authors: Brown Jason W. , Pachalska Maria
Published: September 2022

This paper takes up the problem of agency in relation to freedom. The account is based on the notion that action and perception develop in parallel out of instinctual drive, with thought and imagery pointing to accentuations at pre-perceptual phases, and feeling referring to preliminary segments in action. Objects develop out of drive categories; actions out of drive energy. The inseparability of feeling and concept gives intent and emotion, which innervate concepts. Intent is feeling that gives impetus to decision. The self is deposited early in the process, ideas and feelings midway, acts and objects at the endpoint. The sequence from drive to object constitutes a mental state. The passage from self to act or object is an act of self-realization. Succession in a mental state is simultaneous until actualizing, at which point, though still epochal, the succession takes on temporal order in the present. The precedence of the self in the succession and the affective impulse that action imparts to concepts, gives the feeling of agency, purpose and self-determination.
Increasing Learner Engagement in an ODL Environment: The OUM Experience
Authors: Yusof Safiah Md
Published: September 2022

Open University Malaysia (OUM) is an open and distance learning institution which has been in operation for about two decades. OUM traditionally offers its programs in blended mode which puts emphasis on self-managed learning, face-to-face, and online learning. OUM had already begun to offer some of its programmes fully online. However, the emergence of Covid-19 Pandemic pushed OUM to make the move to offer all of its programmes fully online. The movement control order in March of 2020 came when OUM was well into the January semester and approaching the end of the semester. Face-to-face classes scheduled at all OUM’s thirty-five learning centres around the country came to a halt. All higher education institutions were ordered to shut down. Quick actions had to be taken to minimise the disruption in teaching and learning. OUM had only one choice, to continue with classes online and have the final exams online. It has been two years since, and OUM has moved forward with the transition to fully online and continues to offer all its programmes fully online. OUM continues to strive to provide quality education and positive online learning experiences to the learners. This called for several initiatives and enhancements in e-learning which include the use of e-lessons, online interactive activities, online tutorials, online grade book, online group discussions, online exams, along with an enhanced question bank, online grading system and proctoring system. This paper focuses on the implementation, challenges and use of one of the initiatives: the introduction and use of online class participation (OCP) via group discussions, with the intent to increase student engagement with their peers. Improving and increasing learner engagement in all three areas as proposed by the Community of Inquiry Model (Garrison, Anderson & Archer (2000)) may contribute towards providing learners with a rewarding learning experience and may help student retention. Currently at OUM, although there are efforts in place to allow for learner engagement with the content and tutors, there is a lack of peer interaction taking place online in OUM’s learning management system, myInspire. The initial observations and results of a learner survey on OCP show positive response overall to OCP.

Published: September 2022

O objetivo desse artigo é fazer uma análise crítica do ordenamento legal em conjuntura contexto sociopolítico ambiental. Para tanto, o escrito parte do pressuposto que as mudanças climáticas e a escassez dos recursos naturais possivelmente estão na iminência de um colapso. O fundamento de tal preposição se dá nos relatórios da ONU e projeções científicas contemporâneas. Além disso, o artigo traz à tona o embate inicial da questão ambiental, qual seja a Conferência de Estocolmo em 1972 e como esta refletiu para a proposição normativa brasileira. Posteriormente, adentra-se no contexto sociopolítico e jurídico nacional que prescreveu a preservação do ambiente no mais alto patamar legislativo do país, a Constituição Federal de 1988. A partir da reflexão baseada na hermenêutica jurídica, nos instrumentos legais ambientais e na utilização da metodologia de pesquisa qualitativa exploratória de revisão de literatura, esse artigo intenta advogar por um novo paradigma. A importância do escrito se dá em especial, pela vivência da crise ambiental contemporânea, bem como pelas projeções futuras científicas.
O REFLEXO DA REFORMA TRABALHISTA NO DESEMPREGO E NEGOCIAÇÕES COLETIVAS NO CEARÁ NO CONTEXTO PRÉ-PANDÊMICO
Authors: Araujo Elizabeth Alice Barbosa Silva de , Gomes  Júnior Francisco Tarcísio Rocha
Published: September 2022

A reforma trabalhista de 2017, lei n. 13.467/2017, trouxe profundas modificações no direito do trabalho brasileiro, permitindo uma ampla negociação entre patrões e empregados de diversas cláusulas contratuais, dentre outras modificações. A justificativa desta flexibilização é a diminuição dos índices de desemprego do país e o estímulo a uma negociação que permita o aumento na produtividade nacional. Desta forma é importante avaliar se os objetivos almejados e que justificaram a reforma realmente aconteceram conforme o planejado. O escopo desta pesquisa é a análise dos índices de desemprego e do número de negociações coletivas realizadas no Estado do Ceará no período posterior à reforma trabalhista em comparação com estes mesmos índices antes de sua promulgação. A metodologia utilizada foi a coleta dos índices de empregabilidade e do número de instrumentos coletivos registrados nos sistemas oficiais e a análise de seu desemprenho frente ao período anterior a reforma. Os conceitos abordados foram esclarecidos no decorrer do artigo através de revisão bibliográfica. O achado com relação aos índices de empregabilidade foi de uma recuperação tímida dos níveis de emprego. O segundo resultado observado foi que o número de acordos e convenções coletivas de trabalho registrados no Ministério do Trabalho e Previdência nos anos seguintes à reforma diminuiu significativamente. Por fim, se constatou que nos primeiros dois anos de sua implementação a reforma trabalhista ainda não conseguiu demonstrar sua eficácia social considerados os parâmetros de diminuição dos índices de desemprego e de aumento da liberdade de negociação entre patrões e empregados.

Published: September 2022

In this paper we study about the M−projectively flat perfect fluid spacetime. First of all we showed that the Riemannian curvature tensor of an M−projectively flat spacetime is covariantly constant. Then we found the length of the Ricci operator in an M−projectively flat perfect fluid spacetime and proved that the isotropic pressure and entry density of an M−projectively flat perfect fluid spacetime satisfying Einsteins field equation with cosmological constant are constant. Then we showed that an M−projectively flat perfect fluid spacetime satisfying Einsteins field equation with cosmological constant and obeying the timelike convergence condition has positive isotropic pressure. Further we showed that the isotropic pressure and the energy density of an M−projectively flat perfect fluid spacetime satisfying Einsteins field equation with cosmological constant vanishes in a purely electromagnetic distribution. Lastly we showed that an M−projectively flat perfect fluid spacetime with the energy momentum tensor of an electromagnetic field such that the spacetimesatisfies Einsteins field equation without cosmological constant is a Euclidean space

Flow Induced in a Porous Medium due to a three dimensional couette flow Adjacent to it
Authors: Srivastava A C , Srivastava P K
Published: September 2022

The flow of a viscous fluid induced in a porous medium due to a uniform motion of a plate parallel to its surface has been discussed when there is a transverse sinusoidal injection of the fluid at the moving plate. The fluid fills the space between the plate and the porous medium which is fully saturated with the fluid. Due to this type of the injection velocity the flow in the clear fluid becomes three dimensional. It is assumed that the flow in the clear fluid region governed by Navier-Stokes equation and that in the porous medium by the Brinkman equation near the interface and by Darcy law far away from interface. It is found that with increase of the permeability of the porous medium the magnitude of the velocity component increase in both regions. In the porous region the velocity component parallel to motion of the plate is maximum at the interface and then decreases exponentially forming a boundary layer at the interface. Also the velocity component parallel to the motion of the plate decreases with the increase of injection Reynolds number Re and the magnitude of other velocity components increases with the increase of Re.

Breaking bad news in Oncology: An observer’s point of view
Authors: Joseph Sachin
Published: September 2022

Learning how to break bad news is vital in oncology. Physicians should assess patients’ understanding of their illnesses before proceeding with the conversation. Questions on chances of survival on different treatment options should be answered with the least amount of bias while maintaining an effective balance between hope and prognosis and stressing the individuality of treatment response. Practice empathy in the conversation and understand that each patient is different. Make sure to address any questions patients might have and offer to be available for any further questions. Breaking bad news is a delicate art that requires a lot of practice. Seek to improve this skill with each patient interaction.
Opinion Article Physician burnout: Root causes, effects, and solutions
Authors: Tabowei Godfrey , Osamudiamen Idahor Courage
Published: September 2022

Physician burnout is a phenomenon used to describe the work-related syndrome, which encompasses emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, cynical disillusion, and a low sense of personal accomplishment. Rates of physician burnout are exponentially increasing globally but sadly underreported, resulting in reduced attention to it. This issue represents a public health crisis.

For physicians to offer the best care to patients, they must be at their best state in terms of physical and mental energy levels for them to function effectively; if any of these are affected, it could result in poor patient outcomes. Highlighting these factors that could result in burnout and proffering solutions would go a long way in improving patient care.

Social Spectrum of Abortion in Nepal
Authors: KC Anil
Published: September 2022

Abortion and related complications are among the leading causes of maternal death in low- and middle income countries. In Nepal, abortion is reported to be the third leading cause of maternal death. The prevalence of abortion in Nepal remains high. Education, religion, age, knowledge about legal abortion, and safe places to undergo abortion were the major decisive factors associated with abortion. Young, poorest, uneducated women were more likely to undergo unsafe abortions. Therefore, intervention studies among these target groups are warranted. Here we present three different cases of abortion and its social effect.

Bir Fiten Rivayetinin Neliği: “Herc Zamanı İbadet Etmek, Bana Hicret Etmek Gibidir” Rivayeti Özelinde
Authors: GAN Furkan
Published: September 2022

Fitne zamanlarında ne yapılması gerektiğini ifade eden pek çok rivayet, hadis kaynaklarında yer almaktadır. İlgili rivayetler genelde insanlara özelde ise Müslümanlara yönelik uyarı/ikaz türünden ifadeler barındırmaktadır. Bu tür rivayetlerin anlatmak istediği hususlara ve sıhhatine dair pek çok çalışma yapılmıştır. Çalışmamızda da, “herhangi bir rivayette herc, fitne/fiten veya melhame/melâhim kavramının geçmesi onun mutlak olarak fiten rivayeti kapsamında yer aldığını gösterir mi?” sorusunun cevabı aranmıştır. Bu doğrultuda “herc zamanı ibadet etmek, bana hicret etmek gibidir” şeklinde tercüme edilen rivayet esas alınmış, sonuç olarak içerisinde –farklı tarikler de göz önünde bulundurularak- herc veya fitne kelimesi geçen ve ilk bakışta fiten rivayeti olarak algılanan bu hadisin aslında doğrudan fiten kapsamında yer almama ihtimalinin bulunduğu, Hz. Peygamber’in bunu buyururken teşbih sanatı yapmış olabileceği görülmüştür. Dolayısıyla buradan hareketle musanniflerin, rivayetleri bab başlıkları altına yerleştirirken mutlak surette isabetli davranmadıkları ifade edilebilir. Bu yüzden rivayetler, doğrudan kelimeler/kavramlar üzerinden değil, muhakkak rivayetin arka planı ve bağlamıyla da ele alınmalıdır.
Göç Olgusu Bağlamında Endülüs’te Meydana Gelen Rabaz İsyanlarının Siyasi, Ekonomik ve Sosyo Kültürel Etkileri Üzerine Bir Değerlendirme
Authors: GÖK Murat
Published: September 2022

Endülüs toprakları asırlar boyu Avrupa’daki İslâm medeniyetine ev sahipliği yapmıştır. Bu dönemde siyasi, ekonomik, kültürel vb. birçok alanda eşine nadir rastlanır gelişmeler kendini göstermiştir. Yaşanan hadiselerin etkileri sadece o coğrafyayla sınırlı kalmamış, sonuçları itibariyle birçok bölgede hissedilmiştir. Araştırmamızın konusunu Endülüs emîrlerinden I. Hakem döneminde gerçekleşen ve Rabaz İsyanı diye isimlendirilen bir halk ayaklanması ile bu ayaklanmanın Endülüs’teki etkisi ve ayaklanma sonucu Mağrib, İskenderiye ve Girit coğrafyasına sürgün edilen halkın buralardaki etkileri teşkil etmiştir. Bu konu Müslümanların miladi dokuzuncu asrın başlarında Avrupa’da teneffüs ettikleri atmosferi anlama ve Endülüs topraklarındaki siyasi ortamı değerlendirme noktasında önemli olduğu gibi, zaman zaman ortaya çıkan isyanların ne derece büyük etkiler oluşturduğunu, yaşanan sürgünlerle farklı merkezlerde ne gibi gelişmelere vesile olduğunu görme açısından büyük önem arz etmektedir. Bu çalışmayla Hakem b. Hişâm döneminde Kurtuba merkezli idarenin yönetim anlayışı ve nihayetinde sürgün edilen insanların etkisiyle farklı merkezlerde ne tür değişimlerin olduğunu ortaya koymak amaçlanmış olup göç olgusunun ortaya çıkardığı sonuçlar gözler önüne serilmek istenmiştir. Bu bağlamda konu çalışılırken en eski tarihî kaynaklar esas alınmış ve bunun yanı sıra güncel çalışmalardan da istifade edilmiştir. Bu alanda yapılmış çalışmalar ile ortaya konulan farklı görüş ve fikirler tahlil süzgecinden geçirilerek değerlendirilmiş ve konu tarih metodolojisine uygun bir şekilde ele alınmıştır.
CARACTERISTIQUES ET ELEMENTS PERTINENTS D'UN COURRIER STANDARDISE D'ADRESSAGE AUX URGENCES PEDIATRIQUES. CONSENSUS PAR METHODE DELPHI

Published: September 2022

Introduction. Le courrier médical joue un rôle majeur dans la communication entre les professionnels de santé, particulièrement entre les médecins en soins primaires et les urgences. Certains éléments pertinents manquent parfois dans les courriers d’adressage entre la ville et l’hôpital, notamment en pédiatrie. Objectifs. Développer un courrier d’adressage aux urgences pédiatriques, en en définissant les caractéristiques jugées comme nécessaires autant sur le fond que la forme via une méthode de consensus Delphi. Méthode. Groupe Delphi composé de médecins généralistes (13), pédiatres libéraux (3), médecins de SOS médecins (2), et de professionnels (9 IDE d’accueil et 9 médecins) exerçant dans le service des urgences de l’Hôpital femme-mère-enfant (HFME) à Bron, et celui des Hospices civils de Lyon (HCL). Résultats. Sur 35 propositions initiales, 33 ont fait consensus au premier round. Six propositions ont été soumises au deuxième round (dont 2 nouvelles et 4 reformulations) et elles ont toutes fait consensus. Conclusion. Nous avons pu obtenir un consensus entre des professionnels de soins primaires et des professionnels hospitaliers sur les caractéristiques d’un courrier d’adressage aux urgences pédiatriques. À partir de ce consensus a été élaboré un courrier standardisé qui pourra être utilisé au quotidien lors de l’adressage (ou de la régulation) d’un patient aux urgences pédiatriques de l’HFME. De nouvelles études sont nécessaires pour évaluer l’impact de ce nouveau courrier standardisé sur les critères de qualité des courriers reçus aux urgences, et sur son impact sur la prise en charge des patients.

Allanite is one of the most common sources of rare-earth elements (REEs) and contains significant amounts of thorium (Th) and uranium (U). The presence of radioactive Th and U nuclides in the mineral exposes it to long-term radiation. Like other natural minerals containing Th and U, allanite can be used as a natural analog to understand the long-term radiation effects in high-level nuclear waste (HLW) matrices. Allanite group mineral is generally found in the amorphous phase due to structural damage induced by self-irradiation. In this work, crystalline allanite-(La) samples collected in San Vicente, Palawan, Philippines – having a low absorbed -dose of ~ 1014 α-decays/ mg – were heated at 450, 650, and 850 °C to study the response of non-metamict allanite to heating at elevated temperatures, particularly at the early stages of exposure to alpha-particle radiation. An increase in structural order was observed upon heating to 450 and 650 °C, which is exhibited by a decrease in the unit cell volume by 1.6% and a decrease of the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of selected Bragg planes. It was evident that certain Bragg planes respond differently to the annealing temperatures with preferential reorientation. After annealing at 850 °C, however, the loss of OH bonds was observed in the infrared (IR) spectra, and the broadening of Bragg peaks was seen in the x-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns, suggesting an onset of structural degradation. Surface cracks are also seen in the scanning electron microscope (SEM) images. The study shows that the non-metamict allanite-(La) mineral structure responds to heating similarly to that of metamict ones reported in the literature. This study will provide data on the properties of allanite as part of the ongoing studies on radiation damage in silicate matrices.
Reproduktion auf Eis gelegt?

Cryopreservation of unfertilised oocytes constitutes a relatively new technology for the preservation of female fertility. This procedure is being increasingly utilised without any existing medical indications (‘social egg freezing’). Based on an empirical and legal analysis, this book tries to provide a moral evaluation of this controversial technique by discussing and assessing both its potential and risks, while focusing in detail on the relation between social egg freezing and the philosophical question of a good life. The author argues that a potential danger of this procedure lies in postponing existential life choices and thereby failing to achieve the goal of a broadly successful life.
L-carnitine Attenuates DNA Damage and Oxidative Stress in Diabetic Animals
Authors: Kanani Farzaneh , Etebari Mahmoud
Published: September 2022

Background: Diabetes is a metabolic disorder characterized by high plasma glucose levels. In this disease, increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) results in DNA damage and multiple complications. L-carnitine (LC) has shown a potent antioxidant activity that may reduce oxidative stress. Objectives: This study aims at assaying the effect of LC on DNA damage in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats and evaluating the changes in antioxidant markers and liver function enzymes after the administration of LC . Methods: In the present study, for induction of diabetes, we injected a single dose of streptozotocin (65 mg/kg) by the intraperitoneal route, and diabetic rats were treated with LC 200, 300, and 400 mg/kg daily for 3 weeks. We detected the DNA damage at 7, 14, and 21 days after induction diabetes by the comet assay method. The blood glucose level, plasma alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) were tested. Also, we measured the activity levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and intracellular glutathione (GSH). Results: The results of this study demonstrated the increasing amount of DNA damage with the amount and duration of hyperglycemia. L-carnitine treatment significantly decreased the parameters of genotoxicity such as % DNA in the tail, tail length, and tail moment over time. Moreover, the treatment of diabetic rats with LC 300 and 400 mg/kg/day after 21 days led to a remarkable decrease in blood glucose than diabetic rats. Also, we observed that LC can ameliorate enzyme liver function and reduce oxidative stress via enhancement of GSH and SOD levels. Conclusions: The results of this study indicated the protective effect of LC against DNA damage and oxidative stress in diabetic rats.

Introduction: A double aortic arch (DAA) is a congenital anomaly of the aortic arch, which is also the most common type of complete vascular ring. This vascular ring can compress the trachea and esophagus, as well as cause respiratory, gastrointestinal, and cardiac symptoms. Case Presentation: In the present case report, a 10-year-old boy with recurrent cough, fever, shortness of breath, chest pain, and a history of recurrent respiratory infections was examined. According to the results of bronchoscopic evaluation, he was found to have a localized tracheomalacia. DAA and dextrocardia condition were also confirmed for this patient by performing a computed tomography angiography of the thorax and the three-dimensional reconstruction of CT angiography. Conclusions: The diagnosis of double aortic arch may be confused with upper respiratory tract infections or foreign body aspiration. Therefore, it was recommended that a particular attention should be paid to the double aortic arch when evaluating cases of stridor in children with unknown causes or recurrent respiratory infections. CT angiography and cardiac MRI were the diagnostic methods of choice for examining vascular rings.
