Postoperative fever workup in pediatric neurosurgery patients
Authors: Raviv Nataly , Field Nicholas , Adamo Matthew A.
Published: September 2020

OBJECTIVE

Fevers are common in the postoperative period, and adult data indicate that workup for an isolated fever is not warranted in the first 4 postoperative days (PODs). Pediatric literature on the subject similarly questions the value of further investigation during the first 2 PODs. The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence of acute fever in the postoperative pediatric neurosurgical population, as well as to assess the utility of performing further workup on these patients.

METHODS

A single-institution retrospective study was performed to assess pediatric neurosurgery patients following surgical intervention for the diagnoses of craniosynostosis, Chiari malformation, and brain tumors from 2009 to 2018. Fevers were identified during the first 4 PODs and were defined as a temperature ≥ 38.0°C. The patient charts were queried for urinalysis and urine culture (UA/Ucx), chest radiographs, blood cultures, CSF culture, respiratory viral panel, white blood cell (WBC) count, transfusion history, development of wound infection, and placement of external ventricular drains (EVDs) or lumbar drains. Thirty-day postoperative microbiology results and readmissions were reviewed. Descriptive statistics were performed using logistic regression analysis.

RESULTS

Two hundred thirty-five patients were evaluated, and 61% had developed fevers within the first 4 PODs. Thirty-eight (26.6%) of the 143 febrile patients underwent further workup, and those with high fevers (> 39.0°C) were more likely to undergo further evaluation, which most commonly included UA/Ucx (21.7%). Approximately 1% (2/235) of the patients were found to have an infection during the first 4 days, and 8 additional patients developed a complication following the initial 4 days and within the first 30 PODs. The development of infectious complications within the first 4 PODs did not correlate with acute postoperative fevers (p = 0.997), nor did the development of complications within the 30 days following surgery (p = 0.776); however, multiple days of acute postoperative fevers (p = 0.034) and the presence of an EVD (p = 0.001) were associated with the development of infectious complications within 30 days. Acute postoperative fevers were associated with EVD placement (p = 0.038), as well as blood product transfusions and an increased WBC count (p < 0.001).

CONCLUSIONS

Isolated fevers manifesting within the first 4 PODs are rarely associated with an infectious etiology. Additional factors should be taken into consideration when deciding to pursue further investigation.
Omovertebral bone causing traumatic compression of the cervical spinal cord and acute neurological deficits in a patient with Sprengel’s deformity and Klippel-Feil syndrome: case report
Authors: Pompliano Michael , Changoor Stuart , Mease Samuel , Emami Cyrus , Sinha Kumar , Hwang Ki Soo
Published: September 2020

The presence of an omovertebral bone with Sprengel’s deformity and Klippel-Feil syndrome is a complex congenital anomaly that is not well understood. It most commonly manifests as cosmetic deformity, limited range of motion, and functional disability, although there are reports of the insidious development of cervical myelopathy. In this paper, the authors present the case of a 49-year-old man with acute neurological deficits after a low-energy mechanism of traumatic spinal cord compression, resulting from an impinging omovertebral bone through a traumatic laminar defect. The patient underwent resection of the omovertebral bone, laminectomy decompression of the spinal canal, and anterior stabilization. This case highlights a rarely discussed complication of undiagnosed Sprengel’s deformity and its associated conditions following even low-energy traumatic mechanisms.

Published: September 2020

BACKGROUND:

Radical cystectomy (RC) is the historical “gold standard” treatment for cT2-3 urothelial carcinoma (UC). However, recent evidence supports comparable outcomes of bladder preserving trimodal therapy (TMT) to RC in select patients.

OBJECTIVE:

To assess the oncologic outcomes of our institutional TMT experience.

METHODS:

We retrospectively identified all patients that received radiation therapy (RT) for cT2-3 UC from 2012 to 2018. Clinicopathologic data was then extracted from the patients’ medical records. We included patients who underwent RT with or without concurrent chemotherapy for curative intent after diagnostic TURBT, with or without re-staging TURBT. Patient clinical (age, sex, race) and pathologic/disease characteristics of bladder cancer (stage, presence of hydronephrosis, concurrent carcinoma in-situ) were collected. Primary outcomes were: response to TMT (complete response [CR], partial response [PR], progression), recurrence-free, and overall survival. We also analyzed rates of salvage cystectomy and associated disease-specific outcomes. Response was based on the first surveillance imaging, cystoscopy, or TURBT after completion of TMT.

RESULTS:

24 patients underwent TMT during the study period. 29.2% of patients were black/non-hispanic, 37.5% were latino/hispanic, and 20.8% were white/non-hispanic. 58.3% of patients were female. 19 (79.2%), 3 (12.5%), and 2 (8.3%) patients experienced CR, PR and progression after TMT, respectively. At a median follow-up of 22.4 months, 19 (79.2%) patients were recurrence-free, 3 were alive with disease (12.5%), and 2 expired from other causes (8.3%; 1 with and 1 without disease present). Overall, 22 (92.7%) patients were still alive at last follow-up. No clinical variables were significant predictors of CR to TMT.

CONCLUSIONS:

In concordance with prior reports, TMT offers excellent tumor response rates for patients seeking definitive therapy for cT2-3 UC. Extended follow-up is needed to assess the durability of response and long-term survival after TMT.

Dynamic financial economic fluctuation model based on non-normal distribution
Authors: Wang Li
Published: September 2020

This paper discusses the modeling of financial volatility under the condition of non-normal distribution. In order to solve the problem that the traditional central moment cannot estimate the thick-tailed distribution, the L-moment which is widely used in the hydrological field is introduced, and the autoregressive conditional moment model is used for static and dynamic fitting based on the generalized Pareto distribution. In order to solve the dimension disaster of multidimensional conditional skewness and kurtosis modeling, the multidimensional skewness and kurtosis model based on distribution is established, and the high-order moment model is deduced. Finally, the problems existing in the traditional investment portfolio are discussed, and on this basis, the high-order moment portfolio is further studied. The results show that the key lies in the selection of the model and the assumption of asset probability distribution. Financial risk analysis can be effective only with a large sample. High-frequency data contain more information and can provide rich data resources. The conditional generalized extreme value distribution can well describe the time-varying characteristics of scale parameters and shape parameters and capture the conditional heteroscedasticity in the high-frequency extreme value time series. Better describe the persistence and aggregation of the extreme value of high frequency data as well as the peak and thick tail characteristics of its distribution.

Published: September 2020

With the wide application of electric drive equipment and variable frequency load, the power supply system based on the DC grid has attracted much attention because of its high energy density and simple control, and the operation mode of rectifier AC synchronous generators operating in parallel is often adopted. The available topology structures of the rectifier permanent magnet (PM) generator sets are analyzed in this paper, the parallel operation principle of uncontrolled rectifier PM generator sets is analyzed in theory. The parallel operation characteristics of the generator sets are summarized when the voltage-stabilizing and power balanced measures are not taken, and the influence factors of power balancing among parallel operation generators are analyzed. The power-balanced method of rectifier generator sets operating in parallel based on a master-slave control strategy is proposed, which can realize power balanced with the closed-loop control of the DC side output current. The simulation and experiment results show that the proposed method can realize the power balanced control of rectifier generator sets operating in parallel well. The output power of each generator set can be distributed according to capacity. The rationalization proposal of how to matching generators’ parameters in the power supply system of rectifier PM generator sets operating in parallel is given.

Authors: Coelho Raul Nicolas Dombek , Miranda Rafael Tadeu Machado de
Published: September 2020

O presente estudo se propõe a investigar a tutela dos animais na esfera constitucional brasileira, observando a possível presença de aspectos especistas, ou seja, que denotam tratamentos desiguais às espécies, por meio da identificação e interpretação dos enunciados da Constituição Federal relevantes ao tema. Conduzida a partir de revisões bibliográficas e legislativas, a pesquisa intentou, primeiramente, elucidar o conceito de especismo e, em seguida, examinar os enunciados constitucionais pertinentes sob a ótica de diversos autores para, por fim — partindo de um panorama conjunto —, observar qual a correlação existente entre ambas as perspectivas. Como resultado, entendeu-se que todas as normas analisadas ilustram ao menos uma característica especista. Concluiu-se, portanto, que a Constituição é especista tanto ao proteger certas espécies em detrimento de outras quanto ao positivar atividades exploratórias de animais visando o bem-estar da humanidade.

Summary. Background: The development of malignant tumors, including esophageal cancer (EC), could be associated with impaired expression of oncosuppressive miRNA-200b and еxcision repair cross-complementing group-1 (ERCC1), a protein involved in DNA repair and alternative splicing. Aim: To investigate the features of expression of miRNA-200b and ERCC1 in tumor cells of patients with EC and to determine the possibility of their use for prediction of EC aggressiveness. Materials and Methods: 52 patients with EC of stages II–IV were enrolled. Expression of ERCC1 in tumor cells was assessed by immunohistochemical method, expression of miRNA-200b was evaluated by the real time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Results: The expression of miRNA-200b and ERCC1 in tumor cells of EC patients is associated with their life expectancy. The characteristic features of neoplasms in patients who died within 12 months are low expression of miRNA-200b (2.87 ± 1.65 a.u.) (ρ = –0.42; p < 0.05) and high expression of ERCC1 (191.0 ± 18.6 H-Score points) (ρ = –0.48; p < 0.05). The inverse correlations between the level of miRNA-200b expression and the tumor size were found both in the group of patients with survival < 12 months (ρ = –0.42; p < 0.05) and in the group of patients with survival > 12 months after surgery (ρ = –0.53; p < 0.05). Conclusions: The obtained data indicate the feasibility of using the expression of miRNA-200b and ERCC1 in EC cells to predict the aggressiveness of esophageal cancer.

Sekop merupakan alat yang paling banyak digunakan dalam bidang pertanian. Namun, desain dan bentuk sekop yang ada saat ini dinilai belum cukup efisien untuk digunakan oleh para pengguna di Indonesia. Hal ini disebabkan karena sekop yang tersedia tidak mengacu pada antropometri yang ada sehingga dapat dikatakan bahwa sekop yang ada belum sesuai dengan antropometri tubuh pengguna. Permasalahan desain dan dimensi yang tidak sesuai dengan antropometri petani dapat dipecahkan karena dimensi panjang Sekop Lipat dapat diatur sesuai kebutuhan, sehingga semua pengguna dengan berbagai postur tubuh bisa mengatur panjang sekop sesuai kebutuhan dan kenyamanannya. Brainstorming merupakan sebuah metode yang digunakan untuk membangkitkan sejumlah besar ide-ide yang kebanyakan ide-ide tersbeut akan dibuang. Dengan metode QFD, dibandingkan sekop lipat dengan 3 pesaing lainnya dengan atribut yang sama.Sub solusi dihasilkan dari penyelesaian setiap masalah yang muncul, termasuk dalam memilih atribut untuk s dengan menggunakan langkah-langkah Nigel Cross untuk mempertahankan keunggulan dan meningkatkan kualitas produk. Mengevaluasi alternatif dengan menggunakan Pairwise Comparison dan skala AHP untuk menghitung pembobotan dari setiap atribut dan menentukan ranking dari setiap alternatif. Rekayasa nilai adalah langkah terakhir dalam proses perancangan dengan tujuan untuk meningkatkan nilai produk untuk konsumen dan menurunkan biaya yang harus dikeluarkan oleh produsen atau penghasil produk tersebut.

Asia pada dasarnya melakukan proses pembelian produk yakni bahan baku minyak mentah yang berasal dari negara - negara penghasil minyak. Terdapat persepsi bahwa Asia harus membayar mahal untuk mendapatkan minyak mentah maka disebut dengan “Asia Premium” bagi setiap negara bagian yang terdapat di Asia. Asia khususnya Indonesia memperoleh minyak mentah yang berasal dari Timur Tengah yakni Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). Hasilnya KSA diharuskan untuk menurunkan harga dari minyak mentah dibandingkan dengan penghasil minyak yang berasal dari Eropa dan United States (US). Berdasarkan hal tersebut, maka dilakukan pengkajian ulang apakah pada persepsi “Asia Premium” masih dapat dipertahankan pada negara – negara bagian Asia khususnya Indonesia. Sudah menjadi hal umum bahwa Asia membayar harga yang lebih tinggi untuk mendapatkan minyak mentah yang berasal dari daerah Timur Tengah (Middle East Crude). Dikarenakan harga serta biaya transportasi yang lebih tinggi, maka produsen minyak khususnya pada bagian pemurnian (Refinery) mengalami kerugian dalam hal keuntungan yang diperoleh. Kilang dibangun untuk mengolah minyak mentah dengan variasi jenis dan harga minyak mentah serta pergeseran permintaan yang terjadi untuk produk refinery. Hal tersebut mengharuskan kilang untuk mengurangi biaya bahan baku penyulingan. Umumnya, hal ini dicapai dengan pencampuran minyak mentah dengan jenis yang berbeda. Minyak mentah dengan jenis kualitas rendah dapat dibeli dengan biaya rendah.

Desa Tongging merupakan bagian dari Kawasan Strategis Nasional (KSN) Danau Toba yang berada di Kabupaten Karo dan juga menjadi bagian dari Kawasan Geopark Kaldera Toba. Sebagai daerah tujuan wisata, Desa Tongging belum memiliki konsep tata guna lahan yang dapat memaksimalkan potensi kawasan sebagai tujuan wisata. Pemanfaatan area sempadan danau sebagai respon masyarakat terhadap kebutuhan wisatawan justru bertentangan dengan prinsip tata guna lahan yang diamanatkan dalam Rencana Tata Ruang KSN Danau Toba. Tata guna lahan yang baik seharusnya dapat meningkatkan nilai dan keberlajutan sebuah kawasan. Oleh karena itu penelitian ini bertujuan membuat konsep perencanaan tata guna lahan tongging yang berkelanjutan sebagai desa wisata. Penelitian dilakukan dengan metoda kualitatif dengan memafaatkan data hasil observasi lapangan dan studi literatur. Analisa studi menggunakan tiga elemen yaitu pengaturan zonasi, pembagian fungsi, dan peningkatan nilai kawasan. Penelitian menghasilkan perencanaan tata guna lahan tongging sebaga desa wisata yang berkelanjutan.

El estudio surgió en el contexto de la unidad curricular de Educación por Arte insertada en el Máster en Educación PE (Pré-escolar) y 1o CEB (Ciclo do Ensino Básico), con la compartición de estudiantes. Las actividades que se imparten en el PE y en el 1er CEB contribuyen a la formación de los niños en la construcción de sus propios conocimientos y conocimientos, estimulando la curiosidad, la imaginación y la creatividad; de ahí el papel desempeñado por Education by Art, un vehículo ideal para la autonomía y la autoeducación de los niños y estudiantes. Destacamos dos objetivos del estudio: asociarlo con la promoción de la autoeducación y justificar la dimensión de la terapia artística en contextos escolares y no escolares. Pudimos obtener una metodología cualitativa y cuantitativa a través de una muestra de 151 profesores y estudiantes de la institución de educación superior a la que pertenecemos. Cincuenta y seis individuos (37% de la muestra) respondieron a la encuesta, a través de Google Forms, un modelo utilitario, pero con algunas restricciones en la lectura de algunas dimensiones. Hemos registrado algunos resultados considerables: la Educación Artística sigue teniendo un fuerte impacto en el sistema educativo; La Educación artística conquista el espacio en un viaje en el que la interdisciplinariedad, la multidisciplinaridad y la transdisciplinaridad constituyen un camino irreversible; La terapia artística obtiene una gran apreciación de los encuestados, que merece un estudio en profundidad. RCAAP (Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal) y Google Scholar fueron las plataformas de capital para la solidificación de la base teórica. Consideramos una conclusión fundamental: las dimensiones artísticas serán más visibles con un refuerzo posicional básico (educadores, profesores y agrupaciones) a través de una sólida colaboración en las Artes/Expresiones con el fin de alcanzar un alto nivel en Educación para el Arte, momento, entre otros, en el que el niño sentirá los beneficios de la autoeducación.

The fourth generation (4G) wireless products are expected to be based on worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX) systems. In this paper, the issue of channel estimation in the mobile WiMAX systems (IEEE 802.16e-2005) is analyzed. We study by simulation  the  use  of  the  least  square  channel estimation  algorithm  combining  with  several modulation schemes and interpolation algorithms. The aim  is  to  choose  the  most  feasible  interpolation algorithms  for  each  modulation  scheme  of  mobile WiMAX.  The  results  show  that  the  linear  and  the cubic sub-division interpolations perform the  best and they are proposed to be used in modulation schemes.
Mazowszanie w Akademii Zamojskiej w okresie Wazów

Published: September 2020

Artykuł poświęcony jest związkom Mazowszan z Akademią Zamojską w okresie panowania w Rzeczypospolitej dynastii Wazów. W Zamościu podejmowali studia młodzieńcy z całego kraju, wśród których poza dziesięcioleciem 1628-1638 zawsze przeważali studenci pochodzenia plebejskiego – mieszczańskiego, w niewielkim stopniu chłopskiego. Autorzy na podstawie Album studentów zawierającego 5879 zidentyfikowanych wpisów studentów ustalili, że wśród nich było 256 Mazowszan (4,7% ogółu). Dominowali synowie szlacheccy – 204 osoby, reszta to dzieci mieszczan. Mazowszanie podejmowali studia w Zamościu głównie do 1648 r. Pobrane tam nauki wielu z synów szlacheckich wykorzystywało później w aktywnym życiu publicznym, np. uczestnicząc w sejmikach szlacheckich, czy sprawując urzędy ziemskie, przede wszystkim na Mazowszu, a niektórzy na terenie sąsiedniego Podlasia.
