The Comprehensive Osteopathic Medical Licensure Examination: A Paradigm For Assessing the Skill and Knowledge of Osteopathic Physicians
Authors: Meoli Frederick G.
Published: February 2021

Osteopathic Medicine was founded on the principles that the body possesses the inherent ability to heal itself, and that the musculoskeletal system has a significant impact on the homeostatic mechanisms that keep the body in health or in a state of wellness.

Over the years, 23 schools of osteopathic medicine have been established to promote these principles. They have developed medical educational programs that produce well-trained osteopathic physicians to practice full, unrestricted medicine, including osteopathic manipulative therapy.

In the early 1930s, the osteopathic profession recognized the need for a uniform licensure examination for osteopathic candidates who graduated from colleges of osteopathic medicine. This resulted in the establishment of the National Board of Examiners for Osteopathic Physicians in 1934.

Since introducing its licensing examination in 1935, which utilized an essay type format, the National Board of Osteopathic Medical Examiners (NBOME) examination has evolved into the current three-level examination sequence in computer-based format, including a clinical skills examination (PE) administered to augment Level 2.

This article is written to familiarize the licensing authorities and the public with the history and organizational structure of the NBOME, the content of the COMLEXUSA licensing examination, methods of design, standard setting, test construction, score reporting and administration, and the international recognition of the COMLEX-USA examination series.

Published: February 2021

Finite element based tooth contact analysis of a rack and pinion system of an impulse continuously variable transmission is performed in this study. The rack and pinion system are designed with involute profile herringbone tooth profiles. The involute profile herringbone tooth profile is a type of concave-convex pro-files, which can be used for heavy load conditions. A contact load distribution model of the rack gear with involute profile herringbone tooth profiles is devel-oped to analyze normal loads of any mashing position of the rack pinion system based on the minimum elastic potential energy theory. With the aim of improving the rack and pinion system design, the actual operation of gears under the terms of the three-dimensional tooth contact analysis is conducted. A rack gear with herringbone tooth profiles and a pinion are used to tooth contact analysis. Based on comparing the results of this analysis, a new type of rack gears with concave-convex involute tooth profile are advantages and disadvantages in terms of the contact stress.

Authors: Солонович Юлия
Published: February 2021

В статье рассматривается ранний период творчества М.П. Бобышова, известного художника театра и педагога, до революции 1917 года сотрудничавшего как график-иллюстратор во многих петербургских периодических изданиях (Аргус, Бич, Лукоморье, Сатирикон, Солнце России). Его работы, исполненные для периодической печати, отличались стилистическим разнообразием, что естественно для художника, находящегося в стадии становления и подверженного разнообразным влияниям. Однако, оставаясь в «поле притяжения» своих старших именитых и талантливых современников, он сумел выработать собственный, узнаваемый и характерный пластический язык, заметно эволюционировавший на протяжении сравнительно короткого отрезка времени (1912–1918).
THE INTERTEXTUAL SIGNIFICANCE OF DEAR EVAN HANSEN NOVEL ADAPTATION ON THE ORIGINAL BROADWAY MUSICAL
Authors: Bakri Nabil
Published: February 2021

In the process of adaptation, there are major changes in the process and the final project. Changes in creative adaptation is natural. The novel adaptation of Dear Evan Hansen was published in 2017 based on the acclaimed 2015 musical with the same title. Novels often adapted into films and musicals, but an adaptation from a Broadway musical into a novel is extremely rare. Author Val Emmich worked with the creators of the musical to ensure a successful passing of essence from play to novel, ensuring the foundation of the creation of the musical which is the matter of anxiety disorders among teenagers to remain visible throughout the novel.  Many scholars consider creative adaptation as less than the source material meaning that a creative adaptation translates into inferior product. This research scrutinized the process of creative adjustment in the novel through three distinct but interrelated perspectives based on the theory of adaptation by Linda Hutcheon: adaptation as a formal entity or product, adaptation as a process of creation, and adaptation as a process of reception. This research concludes that the novel adaptation transforms, deepens, and compliments the musical and its existence is justified as it contains intertextual significance.

PENGUNDURAN DIRI SUKARELA SEBAGAI PENYELUNDUPAN HUKUM PEMUTUSAN HUBUNGAN KERJA SELAMA PANDEMI COVID-19
Authors: Gde Wiryawan I Wayan
Published: February 2021

Abstract The Covid-19 pandemic has implications for the weakening of the global economy. Many companies cannot operate or cannot operate optimally. In making efficiency with company expenses, the company reduces the number of employees, and some even close the business permanently. To reduce costs incurred by companies in the mechanism of termination of employment, the company uses a voluntary resignation statement. This condition is certainly detrimental to workers. This research will discuss firstly the protection of workers during the Covid-19 pandemic and second, the comparison of legal consequences of termination of employment with voluntary resignation. Protection of workers during the Covid-19 pandemic is based on a philosophical basis where the state has a legal obligation to create welfare for its people through the concept of a welfare state. Therefore, the state issued a series of policies to protect workers from termination of employment. One form of employment termination created by the company is by asking workers to sign a letter of voluntary resignation. In the event of termination of employment, the employer is obliged to pay severance pay and/or compensation for years of service and compensation for entitlements that should be received, whereas if the worker resigns voluntarily, the employer does not pay all the components of the right.Keywords: company; resignation; work terminationAbstrakPandemi Covid-19 berimplikasi pada pelemahan ekonomi global. Banyak perusahaan yang tidak dapat beroperasi atau tidak dapat beroperasi secara optimal. Dalam melakukan efesien terhadap pengeluaran perusahaan, maka perusahaan mengurangi jumlah karyawan, bahkan ada yang menutup usaha secara permanen. Untuk mengurangi biaya yang perlu dikeluarkan oleh perusahaan dalam mekanisme pemutusan hubungan kerja, maka perusahaan menggunakan surat pernyataan pengunduran diri secara sukarela. Kondisi ini tentu merugikan pekerja. Dalam penelitian ini akan dibahas mengenai pertama perlindungan tenaga kerja pada masa pandemi Covid-19 dan kedua, perbandingan akibat hukum pemutusan hubungan kerja dengan pengunduran diri sukarela. Perlindungan tenaga kerja pada masa pandemi Covid-19 didasarkan pada dasar filosofi dimana negara memiliki kewajiban hukum untuk menciptakan kesejahteraan bagi rakyatnya melalui konsep welfare state. Oleh sebab itu, negara mengeluarkan serangkaian kebijakan untuk melindungi tenaga kerja dari pemutusan hubungan kerja. Salah satu bentuk pemutusan tenaga kerja yang diciptakan oleh perusahaan adalah dengan meminta pekerja untuk menandatangangi surat pernyataan pengunduran diri secara sukarela. Dalam hal terjadi pemutusan hubungan kerja pengusaha diwajibkan membayar uang pesangon dan atau uang penghargaan masa kerja dan uang penggantian hak yang seharusnya diterima, sedangkan apabila pekerja mengundurkan diri secara sukarela maka pengusaha tidak membayarkan seluruh komponen hak tersebut.

Authors: Zhang H. F. , Zhang J. , Yang D. , Li S. N.
Published: February 2021

Objective: To analyze the clinical characteristics and risk factors for the major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) of atrial fibrillation (AF) in pregnant women. Materials and Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on 35 pregnant women with AF, who were treated at Beijing Anzhen Hospital, Capital Medical University, from January 2004 to May 2017. All pregnancies were recorded. Chi-squared test analysis was performed to determine the correlation between clinical factors and MACEs. Results: There were 11 cases of MACEs (31.4%), including 10 cases of heart failure (HF) and 1 case of cerebral infarction. We found 7 clinical factors with a clear correlation with the occurrence of MACEs during pregnancy: a medical history of heart operation (P = 0.0011) and AF before pregnancy (P = 0.0281), New York Heart Association (NYHA) class (P < 0.0001), a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤ 50% (P = 0.0055), and a delivery time < 37 weeks (P = 0.0037). The AF subtype and delivery mode have no correlation with MACEs. Conclusion: AF in pregnant women is dangerous for pregnancy and delivery, multi-disciplinary management of obstetricians, cardiologists, and neonatologists are crucial for these patients throughout pregnancy.
Separate transfer of two frozen-thawed embryos reduces multiple gestations in assisted reproductive technology
Authors: Hasegawa T. , Nakagawa K. , Sugiyama R. , Kuji N. , Nishi H.
Published: February 2021

Aim: In assisted reproductive technology (ART), there are different opinions regarding how an embryo should be transferred to the uterus. For double embryo transfer (DET) cycles in particular, there is no consensus regarding the appropriate embryo transfer (ET) method. Therefore, the present authors developed a novel ET method called separated (s-DET); with this method, two embryos are transferred to separate settings. The authors evaluated and compared pregnancy outcomes of s-DET and conventional DET (c-DET). Materials and Methods: In this prospective cohort study, 129 patients underwent separated ET. One hundred fifty-two patients underwent c-DET, which involves transferring two embryos together. All patients underwent ET of two frozen-thawed embryos. Results: The clinical pregnancy and implantation rates of the s-DET group were 20.9 % and 10.4 %, respectively; these rates were similar to those of the conventional DET group (26.3 % and 16.1 %, respectively). However, the multiple gestation rate of the D-DET group (0.0 %) was significantly lower than that of the conventional double ET group (22.5 %; p = 0.006). Conclusions: s-DET might make ART safer and decrease multiple gestations resulting from DET cycles.

Published: February 2021

The omphalocele-exstrophy-imperforate anus-spinal defects (OEIS) complex represents severe midline abdominal and pelvic defects of unknown etiology. This complex is rare, affecting 1 in 200,000 to 400,000 pregnancies and is extremely rare in twin or triplet gestations. Here, we report the OEIS complex in a spontaneous monozygotic twin pregnancy and previously reported OEIS complex in twin or triplet pregnancy are reviewed. Spontaneous pregnancy and unremarkable family history, but concordance of monozygotic twins for the defect may support the theory that early malformation complexes, e.g., OEIS, may be related to errors in monozygotic splitting in early blastogenesis.
A pitfall in ultrasonographic diagnosis-heterotopic corneal pregnancy initially misdiagnosed as leiomyoma
Authors: Chan C. , Wang J. W. , Wang C. W. , Chang C. W.
Published: February 2021

Background: Ultrasound has become a routine examination of early pregnancy especially pregnancy after in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET). However, benign pelvic pathology such as uterine myoma, hydrosalpinx, and endometrioma may mislead the clinicians’ interpretation. Case Report: A patient of heterotopic cornual pregnancy following IVF-ET, which had been misdiagnosed as uterine leiomyoma in serial ultrasound scans, and ruptured at 12 gestational weeks. Conclusion: This case report reminds us the versatility of an ectopic pregnancy. Clinicians need to record in detail the position and size of any uterine mass before commencing infertility treatment. Any newly developed mass could be misdiagnosed, even in the presence of an intrauterine pregnancy. The possibility of heterotopic pregnancy (HP) must be kept in mind if more than one embryo was transferred.

Background: The major limitation of blood hormone measurements is the rapid daily concentration fluctuations. However, hair hormone measurement may provide an information on chronic body hormone exposure. Objective: The aim of the current study is to determine concentration of estradiol (E) and progesterone (P) in scalp hair of pre and postmenopausal women, using the widely used commercial immunoassay, which is also in use to detect serum E and P in most laboratories. Materials and Methods: The study included women under age of 40 years with regular cycles, and postmenopausal women over the age of 50 years, with no cycles for at least five years. Following hair processing, concentration of E and P in hair was assayed by chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay. Results: The study included 22 premenopausal women (mean age of 30±4.8 years), and 17 postmenopausal women, (mean age of 62 ± 8.1 years), Mean E and P concentrations were higher in premenopausal women compared to postmenopausal women; however, it did not reach statistical significance [8.6 (3.3-16.4) vs. 5.9 (4.3-8.7) pmol/gr-hair (p = 0.53) and 0.006 ([0.004-0.011) vs. 0.005 (0.003-0.006) pmol/gr-hair (p = 0.10), respectively). Conclusion: Hair E and P concentrations can be quantified by immunoassay but it may not be the optimal method. Future studies should be conducted in order to determine the optimal technique in measurement of these hormones from scalp hair.

Summary of Investigation: Assisted reproduction technologies (ART) are now commonly used to conceive. ART is associated with higher incidence of negative birth outcomes which may be due to altered cytokine signaling. Materials and Methods: This pilot study evaluated the suppressors of cytokine signaling SOCS and levels of proinflammatory cytokines ART and non-ART placentas (n=14 each) matched for maternal and gestational age, delivery method, pregnancy weight gain, and body mass index. Comparisons of advanced maternal age (AMA), with or without pre-term birth (PTB) were included. SOCS1, 2, and 3 levels were evaluated with immunohistochemistry and IFN-γ, IL1-β, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, and TNF-α with ELISA. Results: ART was associated with significantly lower SOCS3. Although SOCS1/IL-10 and SOCS2 and 3/IFN-γ significantly associated in normal conception, associations were lost in ART. In AMA, placental SOCS1 and 2 were associated with IFN-γ, and SOCS3 with IL-6, but under 35 these associations were lost. Term birth was associated with placental SOCS1 inhibition of IL-8 and SOCS2 induction of IL-10, but PTB was not. Conclusion: Cytokine signaling is dysregulated in human placentas by ART which might be a cause of negative reproductive outcomes in ART.

Objectives: To compare forehead height (FH), facial heights (FaHs) and the ratios of biparietal diameter (BPD) and femur length (FL) to these heights in midtrimester normal and Down syndrome (DS) fetuses. Methods: 150 normal and 26 DS fetuses were scanned at 15-25 weeks of gestation. At the mid-sagittal image of the fetal profile, FH, FaH, upper facial height (UFaH) and lower facial height (LFaH) were measured in millimeters with “two line distance” tool. The results were expressed as multiples of the gestation-specific normal median (MoMs) using the regression of the equation derived from normal fetuses. The ratios of BPD/UFaH, BPD/LFaH, BPD/FaH, BPD/FH, FL/UFaH, FL/LFaH, FL/FaH, FL/FH were also assessed. Results: In normal fetuses, FH and FaHs increased linearly with gestational age (GA). UFaH increased linearly from 5.2 mm at 15 weeks to 15.7 mm at 25 weeks. LFaH increased from 9.3 mm at 15 weeks to 32 mm at 25.2 weeks. FaH increased from 16 mm at 15 weeks to 39 mm at 25 weeks. FH increased from 17.7 mm at 15 weeks to 42.8 mm at 25 weeks. Only UFaH was found to be significantly smaller in DS fetuses (with a mean of 0.91 MoM, 95% CI, 0.7-1.1, p = 0.003), than in normal fetuses (1 MoM, 95% CI, 0.6-1.3). Concomitantly, none of the ratios changed with gestation and all were found to be statistically higher in DS fetuses (p < 0.05). Conclusions: UFaH, is smaller in DS fetuses compared with normal fetuses in the midtrimester of pregnancy. The ratios of BPD and FL to all heights are higher in fetuses with DS than in normal fetuses.

Background: Following an outbreak in April 2020 in Quebec, Canada, an investigation was carried out to characterize SARS-CoV-2 transmission within an Emergency Childcare Centre (ECCC) setting.Methods: The study population consisted of all the children and employees who attended the ECCC as well as household contacts of the confirmed COVID-19 cases. Of the 120 individuals in the study, five cases were confirmed by epidemiological link and 25 were identified as COVID-19 by RT-PCR among which 19 were analysed by viral whole genome sequencing. Descriptive epidemiology, social network visualization, and phylogenetic analysis were used. The study period was April 9 to May 18, 2020.Findings: Phylogenetic analysis identified two separate introductions of distinct lineages of SARS-CoV-2 and estimated an average reproductive value of R = 1.9 (range 0.9 - 4.9) with a mean doubling time of 3.2 days (range 2.1 - 5.2). The first and most prevalent lineage was introduced by two asymptomatic children who were likely infected by their parent, a confirmed COVID-19 case working in a long-term care centre. Among infected household adults, attack rates were significantly higher in mothers than fathers (risk ratio = 4.5; 95% CI= 1.1-18.7). The extent of transmission makes it one of the largest documented outbreaks in a daycare in Canada.Interpretation: The analyses carried out showed the probable origin and direction of the transmission of the infection (adult-child, child-adult, and child-child), thus highlighting how asymptomatic children can efficiently transmit SARS-CoV-2.
WRITING A SCIENTIFIC ARTICLE: FOCUSED DISCUSSION AND RATIONAL CONCLUSIONS
Authors: Pape Helpe
Published: February 2021

Writing a scientific article does not end with a description of the summarized results. Conclusions and implications remain a crucial part of the article. The previous papers portrayed the most important aspects of the title, summary (Lamanauskas, 2019a), accurate introduction (Lamanauskas, 2019b) and research methodology (Lamanauskas, 2020a) of the article and discussed the features of the presented results (Lamanauskas, 2020b). Discussion is also accepted as an equally important structural part of the scientific article (particularly in the case of describing an experimental / empirical study). Thus, this section summarizes the results of the conducted study. However, this piece of writing is not intended to provide all possible options for discussion and drawing conclusions due to the fact that the specificity of article preparation varies in each field of science. In addition, it depends on the requirements set by scientific / research journals (or other publications) and publishing policy. Therefore, this editorial more concentrates on the general aspects of preparing the above mentioned parts of the article.
