Prognostic Factors and Survival Analysis of Patients with Triple Negative Breast Cancer - A Retrospective Study from a Tertiary Care Teaching Hospital in Kerala
Authors: Thomas Binitha Tresa , Vasanthakumary Preeya , Joseph Ancy
Published: May 2021

BACKGROUND Breast cancer is now the most common cancer in Indian women, having recently surpassed cervical cancer in incidence. Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), which accounts for 15 % of all the breast cancers is an aggressive type seen in younger women with early signs of metastasis, has a poor prognosis due to systemic recurrence and its refractoriness to conventional adjuvant therapy. The purpose of this study was to look into the various prognostic factors associated with 5 years disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) in TNBC. METHODS This retrospective study included 67 patients with complete treatment and followup (median 57 months) presented and treated in the Department of Radiotherapy, Kottayam, between January 2011 and December 2012. The Kaplan-Meier approach was used to analyse survival. Using the log-rank test, univariate analysis of prognostic factors was completed. Using the Cox regression process, multivariate analysis was performed on IBM SPSS version 20. RESULTS The average age was 51.36 ± 11.393 (median, 51.36 years; range 30.0 – 80.0 years), with a median of 50 months, the five-year OS was 65.7 % and DFS was found to be 59.7 % with a median of 45 months, suggesting aggressive nature and poor TNBC survival. Univariate analysis of prognostic factor, clinical stage (cN) and positive nodes (pN) status, clinical tumour size, lympho-vascular invasion (LVI), grade, and nodal density were found to have a significant impact on DFS. Except tumour grade and LVI all were found to be associated with OS. Multivariate analysis, clinical tumour size and pathological nodal status had a significant impact on OS and DFS. CONCLUSIONS TNBC is an aggressive subtype of breast cancer in younger patients with a high risk of metastasis to visceral organs with inherent molecular subtypes and immunological heterogeneity. For treatment of TNBC, targeted estimated glomerular filtration rate (EGFR), fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) receptor based initial treatment setting will improve the outcome dramatically and will fill the unmet clinical needs. KEYWORDS TNBC, Recurrence, OS, DFS, Nodal Density

It is stated that the continental framing and marginal seas of the Pacific Ocean as a planetary landscape geosystem in the development of the World Ocean and identified as the Pacific landscape belt (https://doi.org/10.18411/a-2017-089) as a basis - a model of scientific and practical development of the geosystem ocean-continent has not been previously considered. Currently, in connection with the development of the transition zone of the Asian continent to the ocean, it is necessary to consider the possibilities of applying the landscape approach in the practice of developing the geosystems of this zone. The work is a continuation of the comprehensive studies of the generally formed landscape school of Professor V.T. Starozhilov (doi: 10.24411 / 1728-323X-2020-13079, doi: 10.18411 / lj-05-2020-26). It is noted that a comprehensive study of the landscape structure of the Pacific Ocean framing is of fundamental importance in the use of natural resources in the World Ocean. It is the landscape belt, including the Sikhote-Alin, Nizhneamur, Kamchatka-Kuril, Sakhalin and other landscape areas and the marginal seas associated with them, that is a part of the structure of nature united with the Pacific Ocean and is presented as the basis for fulfilling the tasks of science and practice of developing territories of the continental framing The Pacific Ocean, marginal seas and the use of materials in the development of the World Ocean. It, as a planetary landscape structure, is the basic model "foundation" for building harmonized with nature and related to the ocean ecological, agricultural and other sectoral models for the development of this vast Pacific zone. It is noted that, in turn, the use of computer technology of the vector-layer landscape method creates a platform for the development of plans and development projects. It is also a platform for student learning. The data on the cartographic provision of the belt with modern vector-layer digital materials are presented.

Abstract:

Aims: To study of anatomical and visual outcome in secondary scleral fixated intra-ocular lens implantation

Settings and Design: Hospital based prospective case study conducted at a tertiary care centre over a period of 2 years.

Methods and Material: 30 eyes of 30 patients underwent secondary scleral fixation of IOL by 2-point Ab-externo technique. Post-operatively best corrected visual acuity, IOP, Keratometry and complications encountered were noted at regular follow-up of 7th day, 6 weeks, 3 months and 6 months.

Results: Mean age of patients in the study was 52.33 years in the range of 46-60 years. Out of the 30 cases, 56.66% were men and 43.33% were women. Best corrected pre-operative V/A was in the range of 6/24 to 6/18 (53.33%), 6/12 to 6/9 (16.66%), 6/60 to 6/36 (30%). At final follow-up of 6 months, the results were, 63.33% in range of 6/12 to 6/9, 26.66% in 6/24 to 6/18 and 10% in 6/60 to 6/36. In early complications, transient corneal oedema was seen in 20%, transient IOP elevation in 10%, while vitreous haemorrhage and post-operative hyphaema was noted in 3.33% each. In late complications, Cystoid Macular Oedema was seen in 10%, pupil distortion was seen in 6.66% of patients and decentred IOL was seen in 3.33% of the patients.

Conclusion: Secondary scleral fixated IOL provides good visual outcome and better anatomical position with minimal complications.
Alternativas al encarcelamiento de la persona a cargo de menores sometida a un proceso penal
Authors: Navarro Villanueva Carmen
Published: May 2021

Los efectos que el encarcelamiento de la persona encargada del cuidado de menores, y, en especial, de la madre, causa en aquellos suelen ser devastadores. Por esa razón, es preciso abogar por un sistema de justicia penal que garantice el respeto y la efectiva implementación de todos los derechos del niño. A tal fin, se hace necesario introducir en el penal aquellas medidas que puedan, al menos, minimizar los perniciosos efectos que la prisión del cuidador pueda ocasionar. Consecuentemente, a partir de la normativa vigente en España y de diversas propuestas de lege ferenda, este trabajo analizará las medidas que se podrían adoptar desde el inicio del proceso penal contra el cuidador principal hasta el cumplimiento, en su caso, de la pena impuesta de la manera más acorde a los intereses de los menores a su cargo.

Published: May 2021

Anti-Black racism is an established social determinant of racial health disparities in the United States. Although the majority of research on racism examines in-person individual-level experiences, a majority of Americans engage online and may therefore be exposed to racism directly or indirectly in online contexts. Research suggests that the structural technological features of online contexts may be especially power­ful in perpetuating and enacting racism, often in inconspicuous or automated ways. However, there is a paucity of literature that articulates how structural online racism may be an important catalyst for racial health disparities, despite emerging evidence of racism embedded in our technological infra­structures. Therefore, the purpose of this ar­ticle is to articulate the basis for investigating online racism as a form of structural racism with growing implications for racial health disparities in the digital age. We first define the structural features of online settings that generate and reinforce inequities among racial groups in the United States. Next, we propose a conceptual model detailing potential mechanisms through which struc­tural online racism may translate into racial health disparities. Finally, we discuss ways in which exposures to online racism could be measured in order to capture their structural nature. Implications and future directions for research on online racism as a form of structural racism and corresponding policy for the reduction of racial health disparities are highlighted.Ethn Dis. 2021;31(Suppl 1):311-318; doi:10.18865/ed.31.S1.311

Laboratories, which are an integral part of education in disciplines that require hands-on training and application, can now be presented using new technologies, and application activities can be realized at a distance. In this study, virtual laboratories (VLs) are discussed, and factors affecting the students’ intention to use VLs are investigated. The study was conducted within laboratory applications of circuit analysis within an associate degree program of a distance teaching university in Turkey. In this study, which used exploratory sequential design approach, the learners’ intentions to use a VL were examined within the framework of the technology acceptance model (TAM). Content analysis was used for the analysis of qualitative data, and the partial least squares structural equation model was used for the analysis of quantitative data. As a result of the study, the developed TAM-based research model is a useful conceptual framework towards understanding and explaining the intentions of learners’ virtual laboratory usage. The results of this study will guide institutions to integrate VLs effectively into the education process and to increase and disseminate the use of VLs by learners.

Digital education refers to in-person, blended, and fully online learning efforts, as well as attempts to capture a wide range of teaching and learning contexts which make use of digital technology. While digital education is pervasive in Canada, pan-Canadian data on digital education are relatively scarce. The Canadian Digital Learning Research Association/Association Canadienne de Recherche sur la Formation en Ligne conducted pan-Canadian surveys of higher education institutions (2017-2019), collecting data on the digital education landscape and publishing annual reports of its results. Previous analyses of the data have used quantitative approaches. However, the surveys also collected responses to open-ended questions. In this study, we report a systematic analysis of qualitative data exploring the digital education landscape in Canada and its changes over time. Findings shed light on the growth of digital education, the situated and multidimensional nature of digital education, the adoption of openness, quality, and rigour, and the development of alternative credentials.

Authors: Guàrdia Lourdes , Clougher Derek , Anderson Terry , Maina Marcelo
Published: May 2021

The recent unexpected impact of the global pandemic on higher education has caused universities, governments, students, and teachers to reexamine all components of existing systems, including how to become more effective and efficient in using technologies for education. We have seen that moving classes online—either blended or fully online—can be done rapidly, but early reports show huge variations in quality, acceptance, completion, and learning. Thus, it is important to examine the existing research literature on pedagogical innovations and practices that use technologies. To understand this complex situation, the present study examines the current technological, organisational, and pedagogical trends and challenges using an exploratory design carried out in three stages. In stage one, a literature review of the academic and grey literature was conducted, identifying 14 trends of interest. These trends were used in a workshop and interview discussion between leading experts in the higher education field. Stage two focused on identifying 108 initiatives that represent these trends. Finally, 30 of these were selected as cases for further exploration in stage three. Using thematic analysis, the 30 cases were condensed into 12 main themes that represent the innovative practices that led to development of the IDEAS framework as a signpost on the roadmap of next-generation pedagogy for transforming higher education. IDEAS is presented in the discussion alongside examples and ways to apply it in higher education contexts.

Published: May 2021

E-learning studies are becoming very important today as they provide alternatives and support to all types of teaching and learning programs. The effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on educational systems has further increased the significance of e-learning. Accordingly, gaining a full understanding of the general topics and trends in e-learning studies is critical for a deeper comprehension of the field. There are many studies that provide such a picture of the e-learning field, but the limitation is that they do not examine the field as a whole. This study aimed to investigate the emerging trends in the e-learning field by implementing a topic modeling analysis based on latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) on 41,925 peer-reviewed journal articles published between 2000 and 2019. The analysis revealed 16 topics reflecting emerging trends and developments in the e-learning field. Among these, the topics “MOOC,” “learning assessment,” and “e-learning systems” were found to be key topics in the field, with a consistently high volume. In addition, the topics of “learning algorithms,” “learning factors,” and “adaptive learning” were observed to have the highest overall acceleration, with the first two identified as having a higher acceleration in recent years. Going by these results, it is concluded that the next decade of e-learning studies will focus on learning factors and algorithms, which will possibly create a baseline for more individualized and adaptive mobile platforms. In other words, after a certain maturity level is reached by better understanding the learning process through these identified learning factors and algorithms, the next generation of e-learning systems will be built on individualized and adaptive learning environments. These insights could be useful for e-learning communities to improve their research efforts and their applications in the field accordingly.

Published: May 2021

Este trabalho tem como objetivo investigar as impressões causadas, pelo falar de sujeitos de uma comunidade de prática caiçara, em grupos de ouvintes de três localidades diversas, por meio da aplicação de um questionário de diferencial semântico, o qual contém descritores referentes a atributos paralinguísticos e extralinguísticos: psicológicos, sociais, culturais, físicos e econômicos. Trata-se de uma pesquisa de natureza sociofonética perceptiva que compreende uma tarefa de produção e uma de percepção e utiliza o método de análise estatística multidimensional. Os resultados indicam que a fala da comunidade caiçara não causou nenhuma estranheza ou incompreensão, mas foi considerada pouco agradável pelos juízes de todas as localidades. Com base nas variáveis estatisticamente significantes, os caiçaras, a partir da percepção da sua maneira de falar, foram julgados como pessoas que exercem trabalhos manuais, apresentam situação financeira baixa e são ingênuos, simplórios e humildes.

The issue of the financial reporting quality has aroused the interest of several researchers whose views converge on the idea that it can be influenced both by factors related to the internal environment of the company, the corporate governance system, the activity of auditors and not only, and also by macroeconomic factors, such as the legal and political system of a country or community or certain accounting/ tax policies. The objective of the research is to highlight, starting from a model validated by Iatridis (2011) for companies in the United Kingdom, the way in which microeconomic factors influence the financial reporting quality of Romanian companies listed on the Bucharest Stock Exchange. The analysis is carried out for the 2013-2019 period. The results indicate that the companies that produce high quality financial reports are large and generally have a high operating cash flow rate, relatively low provisions and disclose more information. Also, these companies are audited predominantly by auditors who are not part of the BIG 4 group.

Published: May 2021

With the coming into force of the standard IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments, in January 2018, financial institutions passed from an incurred loss model to a forward-looking model for the computation of impairment losses. As such, the IFRS 9 models use point-in-time, estimates of Probability of Default and Loss Given Default and provide a more faithful representation of the credit risk at a given as they are based on past experiences as well as the most recent and forecasted economic conditions. However, given the short-term fluctuations in the macroeconomic conditions, the final outcome of the Expected credit loss models is highly volatile due to their sensitivity to the business cycle. With regard to Probability of Default estimation under IFRS 9, the most commonly methods are: Markov Chains, Survival Analysis and single-factor models (Vasicek and Z-Shift). The development of the score-cards is still the same as in the case of the Internal Ratings Based Probability of Default models, encouraging institutions to use the already available credit rating systems and perform adjustment to the calibration. This paper outlines a non-exhaustive list of quantitative validation tests would satisfy the requirements of the IFRS 9 standard.

The paper describes qualitative methods of modern library collections (produced after the year 1800) survey in The National Library of the Czech Republic in Prague. Each book is primarily composed of paper sheets and bookbinding. In modern library collections bookbinding usually contains parts composed of synthetic materials. Different types of materials have different mechanisms of degradation. Therefore, the main objectives of this work are nondestructive identification of synthetic materials in bookbinding, their degradation processes, and methods of conservation, conditions of storage, and preventive care as well. Based on the preliminary results of the collection survey in the National Library of the Czech Republic, the most usual types of synthetic materials in bookbinding are cellulose nitrate, cellulose acetate, polyethylene, polyurethane, polymethylmethacrylate, and polyvinyl chloride, both of solid and plasticized type. For faster survey of the collections and deeper information is used new instruments for modern library collection survey and preservation – SurveNIR measuring system. SurveNIR measuring system is used for determination of paper properties and identification of plastic materials using chemometric and comparison with material standards. It can identify more than 45 different types of plastics. It is a nondestructive method, very fast, and it is possible to obtain results in a few seconds of measuring. The SurveNIR system was developed in the European project.
