Background:

The endoscopic supracerebellar-infratentorial (SCIT) approach is a viable method to access pathology of the posterior incisura, but a narrow working space and frequent instrument conflict can potentially limit its surgical efficacy. We planned an endoscopic-assisted paramedian infratentorial supracerebellar approach for pineal cyst.

Case Description:

Patient was placed in prone position under general anesthesia. His head was rotated to the left side slightly. The location of the transverse sinus was detected with navigation system. A 5 cm linear skin incision was performed, and a 2 cm craniectomy was performed about 2 cm left of the median. The transverse sinus was little bit exposed. Dura was incised in a U-shaped incision with the transverse sinus at the base. The endoscope was advanced along with the culmen. At that time, we observed inferior and superior vermian vein. After reaching to the thick arachnoid near by galenic system, the arachnoid membrane was incised and the CSF was evacuated. After that, the cerebellum became soft and the surgical corridor became large. The arachnoid membrane was incised widely. Pineal cyst, precentral cerebellar vein, bilateral internal occipital vein and great vein of galen were exposed. There were some small veins on the pineal cyst, but the adhesion was not so severe. The cyst was dissected from these small veins. There was no adhesion between the cyst and surrounding brain except for the pineal recess. Bilateral ICV was seen behind the cyst. There was feeding artery and draining vein on the antero-lateral part of the cyst. These vessels were coagulated and cut, then the cyst was removed. After the removal, we confirmed complete removal of the cyst and hemostasis.

Conclusion:

Endoscopic-assisted paramedian SCIT approach for pineal cyst in prone position is a reasonable and efficient access for posterior third ventricular lesions. The learning curve, maneuverability in small space, and instrument conflict limit efficacy.
Surgical clip occlusion of the V3 segment to prevent recurrent cerebral infarction associated with extracranial vertebral artery dissection: A case report
Authors: Aiura Ryo , Matsumoto Masaki , Mizutani Tohru , Sugiyama Tatsuya , Tanioka Daisuke
Published: October 2020

Background:

Recurrent cerebral infarction caused by traumatic extracranial vertebral artery dissection (EVAD) is treated medically and surgically. We report a case of EVAD that was treated using surgical clip occlusion of the V3 segment to prevent recurrent cerebral infarction.

Case Description:

A 48-year-old man was admitted for a cerebral infarction caused by EVAD and was treated using 200 mg/day cilostazol. Afterward, the cerebral infarction recurred. Digital subtraction angiography revealed that initial severe stenosis of the VA ostium resulted in the final occlusion and that collateral vessels to the VA remained. We continued antiplatelet therapy, but the cerebral infarction recurred due to thromboembolism of the collateral vessels. Parent artery occlusion was planned. We exposed the V3 segment of the VA and clipped it to prevent the recurrence of cerebral infarction.

Conclusion:

Surgical clip occlusion of the V3 segment was effective for treating recurrent cerebral infarction caused by traumatic EVAD that had remained an issue despite continuing medical therapy.
Primary Ewing’s sarcoma of the C2 vertebra with progressive quadriparesis: Report of a rare case and review of the literature
Authors: Khatavi Anandkumar , Dhillon Charanjit Singh , Chhasatia Nilay , Pophale Chetan , Nanakkal Shafeek , Varshney Amit
Published: October 2020

Background:

Ewing’s sarcoma is a malignant primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET) of childhood and adolescence. Primary Ewing’s sarcoma of the spine is uncommon, and even more rarely involves the C2 vertebra.

Case Description:

A 14-year-old patient was admitted with a history of chronic neck pain, which exacerbated after playing contact sports 3 weeks before presentation. On initial examination, he had pain radiating into the left upper extremity plus spasticity in all the four limbs. The cervical X-rays revealed a mixed sclerotic-lytic lesion involving the C2 vertebral body. The CT bony and soft-tissue windows documented predominant left-sided tumor invasion of the posterior elements, pedicles, and body of C2 along with extension into the spinal canal resulting in severe cord compression with peritumoral soft-tissue edema. The angiogram revealed a patent left vertebral artery entirely surrounded/encased by tumor. The PET-CT scan demonstrated no other spinal or systemic lesions. Due to his rapid neurological deterioration, the patient underwent an emergent biopsy of the tumor with posterior decompression and occipitocervical stabilization. The biopsy demonstrated a PNET (e.g., positive CD 99 MIC2 marker for Ewing’s sarcoma). Following subsequent chemotherapy and radiation, the patient rapidly improved over a period of 3 months.

Conclusion:

Primary Ewing’s sarcoma involving the C2 vertebra is exceedingly rare and warrants surgical decompression with pathological confirmation to provide additional multi-modal/multi-disciplinary adjunctive radiation/chemotherapy.

The ‘ultimate toponym’ and national imaginaries in Georgia and Azerbaijan: Constraining Imaginaries of Borchali among Georgian Azeri-Turks
Authors: Storm Karli-Jo T.
Published: October 2020

A central component of any national imaginary is the extent to which it is or can be made marketable and consumable by audiences within and outside of the borders of the territorial state. Physical and symbolic delimitation of the “homeland” – in 2- and 3-D, on the ground and on maps, in speech and in individual thought processes - facilitates a certain degree of intra-group solidarity and out-group wariness. After expanding upon the theoretical utility of the concept of the national imaginary, the author examines the role played by the “ultimate toponym”, that of the bounded and institutionalized nation-state, in reifying dominant national imaginaries in Georgia and Azerbaijan. A further aim of this article is to demonstrate the ways that popular and elite-centric conceptions of Azerbaijani and/or Georgian nation-hood stymie Georgian Azeri-Turks’ abilities to imagine alternate forms of identification and belonging, using the phantom territory of “Borchali” as a key example.
Institutions, stakeholders and the city in the 2010s renaming policy in Russia
Authors: Lomakin Nikita
Published: October 2020

The article presents an overview of the renaming tendencies in Russia of the 2010s and the main stakeholders of the name changing. On the base of the administration websites, online media petitions and other open sources, three cases are examined in detail: 1) Perm, where half of Maksim Gorky street was renamed after the surgeon Sergey Sukhanov in 2015; 2) Kazan, where at the same time Esperanto street was renamed after Nursultan Nazarbaev, causing mass protests for several years; 3) Volgograd, with the discussions about returning to its older name Stalingrad being led for years. Based on the analysis of these cases, the following tendencies are identified: changes of stakeholders motivation for renamings, transfer of power to name from parliamentary institutions to administration, a new perception of the city center and distant districts; and, finally, the appearance of alternative mechanisms of social memory encouraged by the wiping out of older names.
Experience of implementing decommunization laws in Eastern Ukraine: a Kharkiv case
Authors: Kutsenko Denys
Published: October 2020

The article deals with an instrumental use of the national legislation by the local authorities in Kharkiv, the second-largest city in Ukraine and shows how the shortcomings in the national legislation on the politics of memory can be used by the local political elites of “borderland city” in an attempt to raise the rating and/or to mobilize the electorate before the elections. Consequently, several interviews with local experts and activists were conducted in 2019, and qualitative data analysis was made for the transcribed texts as well as a short review of other papers on the subject. Also, the article shows how the local court can accelerate the process of depriving a historical building of the status of an architectural monument using decommunization laws. The study confirms the existence of serious polarization in Ukrainian society and the superficial nature of decommunization (started in 2015), which stimulates the deepening of such polarization.

Published: October 2020

Background

Emerging antimicrobial resistance (AMR) challenges gonorrhoea treatment and requires surveillance.

Aim

This observational study describes the genetic diversity of Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates in Germany from 2014 to 2017 and identifies N. gonorrhoeae multi-antigen sequence typing (NG-MAST) genogroups associated with AMR or some patient demographics.

Methods

1,220 gonococcal isolates underwent AMR testing and NG-MAST. Associations between genogroups and AMR or sex/age of patients were statistically assessed.

Results

Patients’ median age was 32 years (interquartile range: 25–44); 1,078 isolates (88.4%) originated from men. In total, 432 NG-MAST sequence types including 156 novel ones were identified, resulting in 17 major genogroups covering 59.1% (721/1,220) of all isolates. Genogroups G1407 and G10557 (G7072) were significantly associated with decreased susceptibility to cefixime (Kruskal–Wallis chi-squared: 549.3442, df: 16, p < 0.001). Their prevalences appeared to decline during the study period from 14.2% (15/106) to 6.2% (30/481) and from 6.6% (7/106) to 3.1% (15/481) respectively. Meanwhile, several cefixime susceptible genogroups’ prevalence seemed to increase. Proportions of isolates from men differed among genogroups (Fisher’s exact test, p < 0.001), being e.g. lower for G25 (G51) and G387, and higher for G5441 and G2992. Some genogroups differed relative to each other in affected patients’ median age (Kruskal–Wallis chi-squared:  47.5358, df:  16, p < 0.001), with e.g. G25 (G51) and G387 more frequent among ≤ 30 year olds and G359 and G17420 among ≥ 40 year olds.

Conclusion

AMR monitoring with molecular typing is important. Dual therapy (ceftriaxone plus azithromycin) recommended in 2014 in Germany, or only the ceftriaxone dose of this therapy, might have contributed to cefixime-resistant genogroups decreasing.
Culture specific items in literary texts and their translation based on “foreignization” and “domestication” strategies
Authors: KULELİ Mesut
Published: October 2020

The purpose of this study is to determine culture specific items in the novel titled Baba Evi by Orhan Kemal and find out the translation strategies used in translation of these culture specific items in English translation of the novel titled My Father’s House with a view to exemplifying and presenting potential translation strategies for professional and prospective literary translators. To this end, Newmark’s (2010) categorization of culture specific items was adopted in order to classify the culture specific items besides proper nouns suggested by Aixelá (1996) as culture specific items. The translation of those culture specific items was analyzed based on a synthesis of Aixelá’s (1996) conservation and substitution strategies with Venuti’s (2001[1995; 1998]) foreignization and domestication strategies. The analysis of the culture specific items in the source text yielded 194 items specific to the source culture. 31 items were found from proper nouns category while 163 items were found based on Newmark’s (2010) categorization. The translation analysis showed that foreignization strategies were dominantly used in translation of the culture specific items in the novel, while domestication strategies were used infrequently. Besides foreignization and domestication strategies, the translator also preferred to translate 59 source culture specific items through universal and neutral signs, favoring neither foreignization nor domestication strategies. Therefore, literary translators could benefit from both foreignization and domestication translation strategies rather than adopting only one of them in translation of culture specific items.

Authors: Fereja Getachew Bekele , Lamaro Merhun , Berhe Genet , Berhe Aregay
Published: October 2020

Ethiopia is believed to have the largest livestock population in Africa. An estimate indicates that the country is a home for about 54 million cattle, 25.5 million sheep and 24.06 million goats. Therefore, this study was conducted in three selected districts of Gambelia regional state with the objective to assess the production potentials and preservation methods of hide and skin. As a secondary product of the meat consumption, the supply of hides & skins depends on the demand for meat, the rearing, management and slaughtering of animals, with little response to change in price and demand for the products. Hides and skins could be obtained from fish, birds and reptiles as well as wild and domesticated animals. The sample size of the study was estimated to be 384 (128 from Gambella zuria, 128 from Godare and 128 from Lare) using the formula stated in Thrust field. The quantitative data was organized, summarized and encoded on excel sheet and analyzed with the help of Statistical Analysis System (SAS) 9.2 version 2008.Qualitative data derived from direct observations and key informants was examined and presented in form of discussions. In the study areas, for all the three species, the mean annual slaughter at household level ranges between 0.07,1.66 and 1.73 cattle, sheep and goat annually, respectively in the study area. Of the 384 respondents interviewed, (94.01%) used the preservation methods of ground air dry and 6.25% use salt preservation for hide and skin preservation, respectively. Generally, production potential and preservation methods variations were observed among the Hide and skin producers, which suggest that there is an opportunity for improvement through awareness creation.
A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF CROSSOVER OPERATORS FOR GENETIC ALGORITHMS TO SOLVE TRAVELLING SALESMAN PROBLEM
Authors: Hameed Wafaa Mustafa , Kanbar Asan Baker
Published: October 2020

Genetic algorithms (GAs) represent a method that mimics the process of natural evolution in effort to ﬁnd good solutions. In that process, crossover operator plays an important role. To comprehend the genetic algorithms as a whole, it is necessary to understand the role of a crossover operator. Today, there are a number of different crossover operators that can be used , one of the problems in using genetic algorithms is the choice of crossover operator Many crossover operators have been proposed in literature on evolutionary algorithms, however, it is still unclear which crossover operator works best for a given optimization problem. This paper aims at studying the behavior of different types of crossover operators in the performance of genetic algorithm. These types of crossover are implemented on Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP); Whitley used the order crossover (OX) depending on specific parameters to solve the traveling salesman problem, the aim of this paper is to make a comparative study between order crossover (OX) and other types of crossover using the same parameters which was Whitley used.
KNOWLEDGE AND PRACTISE REGARDING DOGS AND RABIES AMONG FULANI CATTLE HERDING COMMUNITIES IN ZARIA ENVIRONS, NIGERIA
Authors: Dzikwi  , Umoh
Published: October 2020

Rabies is a viral disease transmitted mainly following the bite of a rabid dog. Dogs are increasingly being kept for security of livestock among cattle herders. The study was conducted to assess the knowledge, attitude and practise regarding dogs and rabies among the cattle herding community to identify gaps regarding knowledge of rabies transmission and plan intervention. Questionnaires were prepared and administered by face to face interview among members of the communities. Responses were scored based on a marking scheme and observations documented. There was poor knowledge and bad practise regarding rabies and dog ownership. Most of the dogs were not vaccinated against rabies.  Furthermore, there was a practice of swapping dogs for household items among members of the community and dog dealers. This has grave implication because it will drive reckless dog ownership for the sole purpose of obtaining desired household items. This coupled with poor vaccination of dogs will lead to increased chances of rabies transmission. There is a need for educating this group on the role of dogs in rabies and vaccination of the dogs in the community.

THE FUNCTION OF INFORMAL GUANXI CIRCLE IN ANCIENT CHINA POLITICAL STRUCTURE
Authors: Han Ruihui
Published: October 2020

Guanxi circle play a critical role in ancient China politics. Based on guanxi, two kinds of guanxi groups formed: formal guanxi circle and informal guanxi circle. The former refers to the group centered the emperor; the latter refers to the groups with the powerful and charismatic figures as the core, except for the emperor. In order to consolidate the political power, the emperors in different periods would try to prevent the informal guanxi circle in political structure. Besides, various scriptures also denounce the informal guanxi circle, deeming such circle as harmful. The judgement of informal guanxi circle appeals to research, as there is no previous researcher has address such problems. This study set out to examine whether the informal guanxi circle is harmful to the whole political structure. Results show that the informal guanxi circle, in the antecedent of satisfactory communication, can be extremely meaningful to the whole political structure. This study implies that the fact of informal guanxi circle is on the contrary of the common sense derived from the scriptures and the superficial ancient political activities, such as the emperor’s order to prevent the informal guanxi circle. The findings can contribute a better understanding of the ancient informal guanxi circle in ancient political structure in China.
FISH DISEASE AS A MONITOR OF LAKE WATER POLLUTION
Authors: Dwivedi Bharti , Banerjee Suchitra
Published: October 2020

One of the greatest problems that the world is facing today is of environmental pollution. Increasing with every passing year and causing grave and irreparable damage to the environment .potentially harmful substances e.g. pesticides, heavy metals and hydrocarbons are often released into the aquatic environment. When large quantities of pollutants are released in water there may be immediate impact as measured by large scale. Sudden mortalities of fishes and other aquatic organisms. Lower levels of discharge may results in accumulation of the pollutants in aquatic organism. The end results which may occur long after the pollutants have passed through the aquatic environment include reduced metabolism, damage of skin and gills. Current study shows that some of the diseases caused by virus, pseudomonas, flavobacterium resulted from generally adverse water quality i.e., higher than usual quantities of organic material, oxygen depletion, change in pH values and enhanced microbial populations some infections with Serratia and Yesinia   may also well reflected contamination of water with domestic sewage e.g. leaking septic tank.
REDUCTION OF REAL POWER LOSS BY UNIFIED ALGORITHM
Authors: Lenin K.
Published: October 2020

In this paper, we propose a new Unified Algorithm (UA) by combination of Variable mesh optimization algorithm (VMO) with Differential Evolution (DE) for solving reactive power problem. VMO has mainly three search operators, one for global exploration and two for local optima exploitation. DE is a simple yet commanding evolutionary algorithm for solving optimization problems. In all iteration VMO serve as the initial population of DE and obtains a population of more quality with this population VMO begins a new cycle.  The proposed UA has been tested in standard IEEE 30 bus test system and simulation results show clearly about the better performance of the proposed algorithm in reducing the real power loss with control variables within the limits.

This study analyzed the evolutionary transition of the Sinulog-based dance in Cebu, Philippines. It also sought to: contrast the traditional Sinug Dance and the contemporary Sinulog-based dance in terms of the dance steps, musicality, ritual, costumes, and the reason or purpose of dancing; identify the effects of the changes in the Sinulog-based dance in the tourism industry of Cebu City as a whole; generate a theory which serves as framework of the evolutionary transition of the Sinulog-based dance. A collective case study design with naturalistic observation was utilized. The transition of the traditional Sinug dance to the contemporary Sinulog dance was ignited by the change of external factors indicated in the Theory of Cultural Transition. The traditional Sinug dance was on the brink of extinction without the help of certain individuals and organization who took part in preserving this potential cultural heritage, as a response to the essentialist challenge posed by the cultural heritage advocates. The contemporary Sinulog dance transcended to a new culture after the Sinug was obliterated to a more progressivist view of change to increase tourist attraction catapulted to a more commercialized endeavor for tourism and business development opportunities.

Penjadwalan mata pelajaran pada sekolah-sekolah saat ini masih dilakukan secara manual tanpa melibatkan proses komputasi sehingga kurang efektif karena parameter penyusun dan batasannya tentu sangat banyak, seperti waktu yang tersedia baik itu hari dan jam mengajar, ruangan, dan ketersediaan tenaga pengajar. Proses penjadwalan di SMAN 5 Mataram masih diolah secara manual dengan hanya menggunakan Excel, tentunya akan sangat memakan banyak waktu sehingga resiko kesalahan saat penyusunan dan hasilnya akan sangat tinggi. Dengan melihat permasalahan yang ada maka dibutuhkan suatu sistem informasi penjadwalan untuk meminimalkan kesalahan-kesalahan yang ada. Sistem informasi penjadwalan ini dibuat dengan suatu algoritma yang bernama algoritma genetika dan salah satu framework PHP yaitu Codeigniter yang sudah menyiapkan berbagai macam library untuk dapat mempermudah dalam pengembangan. Algoritma genetika merupakan salah satu solusi yang bisa digunakan untuk menyelesaikan permasalahan tersebut dimana algoritma ini didasarkan atas mekanisme dari seleksi alam yang dikenal dengan proses evolusi biologis seperti seleksi alam, pindah silang dan mutasi. Penerapan algoritma ini akan menghemat waktu dan meminimalisir kesalahan yang akan muncul saat proses penyusunan.

East Nusa Tenggara is dominated by dry land which has the potential for the development of horticultural crops. Horticultural plants that are widely cultivated by the community are spinach. However, in reality, spinach production in this province is still fluctuating, this is due to the low knowledge of farmers about providing proper nutrition for plant growth and development. For this reason, this study aims to determine the production of spinach in dry land due to cow manure and atonic application. This research was conducted in the experimental field of the Faculty of Agriculture, University of the Teachers Association 1945. The design used was a factorial randomized block design (RBD), which consisted of 2 factors: factor I: cow manure and factor II: growth stimulant (atonic). The results obtained were: The application of cow manure and atonic manure to spinach on dry land had a very significant effect on plant height (7,55 -F hitung> 4,77-F Tabel), number of leaves (10.85-F hitung> 4,77-F Tabel), fresh weight (13,98-F hitung) > 4,77-F Tabel) and dry weight (6,44 -F hitung) > 4,77 -F Tabel).

The mediastinum is the space that separates the lungs from the rest of the chest. The most common mediastinal masses are neurogenic tumors (20% of mediastinal tumors), followed by thymoma (15-20%). Other masses include lymphoma, pheochromocytoma, germ cell tumors, including teratoma, thyroid tissue, and parathyroid lesions. Lymphoblastic leukemias/lymphomas are neoplasms of precursor T cells and B cells also known lymphoblasts. World Health Organization (WHO) classification has unified these entities as precursor B-cell and T-cell lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma. We present here a rare variant of non-Hodgkins lymphoma in a 12-year-old female who complained of worsening dyspnea and lower left-sided chest pain. The patient was empirically treated with anti-tuberculous drugs without relief. On admission, a CT scan chest showed an anterior mediastinal mass approximately 25x12.5 cm adherent to the mediastinal structures. Resection of the mass was done sparing the phrenic nerve. The sample was sent for histopathology which suggested small cells with hyperchromatic nuclei and positive tumor markers. Rare occurrence of this ailment can lead to mistakes with the diagnosis.  Therefore the uniqueness of our case lies in the fact that a T-LBL can present with such a huge mass.
Museums, Challenging Heritage and Social Media During COVID-19
Authors: Kist Cassandra
Published: October 2020

In this opinion piece I reflect upon museum social media trends during COVID-19 and consider what it could mean in terms of future online engagement and the (mis)alignment of practices with institutional social missions. In opposition to the recent focus on uplifting museum content and activities online, I investigate an overlooked question regarding the role of challenging heritage on social media during the pandemic. I end with a call for the sector to consider the complexities of including or excluding challenging heritage from current museum online activities and in turn, the opening or foreclosure of critical reflections at a pivotal time in history.

Analisis Yuridis Standar Prosedur Pelayanan Operasional (Sppop) Notaris Dalam Pembuatan Akta Terkait Klausul Proteksi Diri Notaris Berdasarkan Pasal 15 Ayat (1) Undang-Undang Nomor 2 Tahun 2014 Tentang Jabatan Notaris
Authors: Setiawan Asep , Gun Gunarto
Published: October 2020

Penelitian ini berangkat dari banyaknya kasus yang menimpa beberapa Notaris, informasi tersebut telah saya peroleh dari beberapa dosen pada saat masa pekuliahan di Program Pasca Sarjana Magister Kenotariatan Unissula. Kasus-kasus yang menimpa beberapa Notaris saat ini adalah penyangkalan yang dilakukan para pihak terhadap isi Akta yang dibuat oleh Notaris, para pihak yang sedang bersengketa tidak sedikit mengikutsertakan Notaris ke dalam permasalahannya. Hal tersebut dikarenakan para pihak berasumsi bahwa Notaris terlibat didalam pembuatan Akta tersebut, padahal Notaris bukanlah pihak didalam Akta tersebut, karena para pihak dalam membuat akta atas keinginannya sendiri dan Notaris hanya mengkonstantir apa yang dikehendaki oleh para pihak untuk dimasukan kedalam Akta.Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah (1) Untuk menganalisis Bagaimana Standar Prosedur Pelayanan Operasional (SPPOP) Notaris dalam pembuatan Akta notariil untuk memproteksi diri Notaris, dan (2) Untuk menganalisis Apakah klausul proteksi diri dalam akta tentang identitas, sengketa dan keterangan penghadap mempunyai pengaruh, jika ada penghadap yang menyangkal.Penelitian ini menggunakan Metode pendekatan Yuridis Normatif, karena berdasarkan studi kepustakaan terhadap peraturan yang satu dengan peraturan yang lain. Penelitian ini dilakukan di beberapa Kantor Notaris dan PPAT di Kabupaten Tegal dan Kabupaten Brebes.Hasil penelitian Standar Prosedur Pelayanan Operasional (SPPOP) Notaris dalam menjalankan tugas dan jabatannya sebagai seorang Notaris tentunya dengan memintakan data-data atau Identitas dari para penghadap yang hendak membuat Akta Notariil dan Akta Notaris sebagai bukti Autentik harus dilihat sebagaimana yang tercantum atau tertulis didalamnya, sepanjang sudah sesuai dengan aturan-aturan yang terkandung dalam UUJN dan Kode Etik maka Akta tersebut telah benar dan mempunyai kekuatan pembuktian yang sah dan/atau sempurna. Adanya Klausul Proteksi diri bagi para Notaris sangat berpengaruh, mengingat dalam menjalankan tugas jabatannya perlu adanya perlindungan bagi dirinya.Kata Kunci : Klausul Proteksi, Akta Autentik.
