Published: March 2024

The Diploma in Gender Equity of the Hospital Interzonal General de Agudos Prof. Dr. Ramón Carrillo seeks to approach health from a feminist and transfeminist perspective, especially in relation to National Law No. 25929, which guarantees the right to the Voluntary Interruption of Pregnancy (VTP). The hospital management faced challenges such as the conscientious objection of some obstetrics professionals. To overcome these obstacles, several actions were proposed, including training professionals in gender equity, expanding care services and improving communication with the community. An interdisciplinary Nurse Liaison team was established to facilitate access to abortion care and a registry system was implemented to monitor outcomes. These measures are expected to reduce barriers to access to sexual and reproductive health, empowering women and pregnant women to make informed decisions about their health. This intersectoral approach and specialized training in gender equity aims to close access gaps and improve the quality of care
Penyebab Krisis Moral pada Anak Menurut Teori Nativisme, Empirisme dan Konvergensi
Authors: Abdul fatah
Published: March 2024

Belum lama ini telah terjdi peristiwa yang menghebohkan kabupaten Tegal yakni peristiwa pembunuhan di desa Cerih kecamatan Jatinegara kabupaten Tegal. Kehebohan terjadi lantaran pembunuhan itu dilakukan oleh temen-temanya sendiri bahkan masaih ada yang termasuk saudaranya. Pembunuhan itu dipengaruhi oleh minuman keras dan pergaulan bebas . Penulis mencoba melakukan studi analisis dengan pendekatan teori Nativisme, Empirisme dan Konvergensi. Nativisme berpendapat bahwa perkembangan manusia ditentukan oleh potensi sejak lahir dan lingkungan tak dapat merubahnya. Sedangkan aliran Empirisme menjelaskan bahwa manusia sangat dipengaruhi dan ditentukan oleh lingkungan alam sekitarnya. Teori Konvergensi berpendapat bahwa pembawaan dan lingkungan kedua-duanya sangat menentukan perkembangan manusia. Dalam padangan al-Qur’an fitrah manusia diberikan Allah sebagai bawaan dari lahir tetap memerlukan proses interaksi dari lingkungan sekitar secara dinamis.

Published: March 2024

Један од врло важних индикатора квалитета предшколског васпитања и обра- зовања представља поље односа породице и предшколске установе. Овај однос предуслов је за остваривање постављених задатака васпитања и образовања утврђених Програмом предшколског васпитања и образовања, због чега се у раду разматрају ставови васпитача и родитеља о узајамном односу у процесу васпитања и образовања њихове дјеце. Поред тога, представљени су и најдо- минантнији облици партнерства предшколске установе и породице, када је, на основу резултата истраживања у коме је учествовало 572 родитеља и 811 васпитача из 42 предшколске установе у Републици Српској, утврђено да се најчешће партнерство веже за двосмјерну размјену информација између ро- дитеља и васпитача о актуелним темама из установе, општем напредовању дјетета и стварању позитивне средине за учење у кући. Све то указује на постојање више традиционалног приступа у односима предшколске установе и породице, који најчешће подразумијева пасивну улогу родитеља, ограничену на родитељске састанке и индивидуалне разговоре. Овакви резултати усмје- рили су нас на преиспитивање и процјену потреба за наглашавањем различи- тих облика партнерства, чиме би се додатно унаприједили односи породице и предшколске установе. Тиме би се уједно створили бољи услови за одговор на бројне изазове са којима се савремена породица суочава, те створиле боље прилике за предшколску установу, која, као таква, може бити спремна да се прилагоди промјенама које се свакодневно јављају.
Traditional uses and phytopharmacology of Cirsium arvense: Bioprospecting potential of a weed from temperate biome

Published: March 2024

Cirsium arvense, a noxious weed of the Asteraceae family, has potential medicinal benefits. Traditionally, it has been used to cure ulcers, mouth infections, leukemia, dentalgia, canker sores, pharyngitis, and other ailments. Alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, and diverse phytoconstituents are associated with its therapeutic potential. This review article sheds light on C. arvense’s taxonomy, geographical distribution, ethnomedicinal uses, and phytopharmacology. Despite its weedy nature, it has been a rich source of phytoconstituents, which is evident from its antimicrobial (against Gram-positive and negative strains), antioxidant (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl and others), and antiproliferative (HeLa, A43, and MCF7 cell lines) potential. Hispidulin, luteolin, and tracin, isolated from C. arvense were reported to be with antibacterial potential. Based on its bioactive components, a proposed mechanism for antibacterial action is also highlighted. A toxicity study revealed that the aerial parts of C. arvense are toxic (LC50 of 51 μg/ml). Bioprospecting of this weed after detailed follow-up studies will help manage C. arvense in the future.

Secretory proteins are sorted at the trans-Golgi network (TGN) for export into specific transport carriers. However, the molecular players involved in this fundamental process remain largely elusive. Here, we identified the human transmembrane protein TGN46 as a receptor for the export of secretory cargo protein PAUF in CARTS – a class of protein kinase D-dependent TGN-to-plasma membrane carriers. We show that TGN46 is necessary for cargo sorting and loading into nascent carriers at the TGN. By combining quantitative fluorescence microscopy and mutagenesis approaches, we further discovered that the lumenal domain of TGN46 encodes for its cargo sorting function. In summary, our results define a cellular function of TGN46 in sorting secretory proteins for export from the TGN.
Apical constriction requires patterned apical surface remodeling to synchronize cellular deformation
Authors: Yamashita Satoshi , Ishihara Shuji , Graner François
Published: March 2024

Apical constriction is a basic mechanism for epithelial morphogenesis, making columnar cells into wedge shape and bending a flat cell sheet. It has long been thought that an apically localized myosin generates a contractile force and drives the cell deformation. However, when we tested the heighten apical surface contractility in a cellular Potts model simulation, the constriction increased a pressure inside the cell and pushed its lateral surface outward, making the cell into not the wedge shape but instead a drop shape. To keep the lateral surface straight, we considered an alternative model in which the cell shape was determined by cell membrane elasticity and endocytosis, and the increased pressure is balanced among the cells. The cellular Potts model simulation succeeded in reproducing the apical constriction, and it also suggested that a too strong apical surface tension might prevent the tissue invagination.
Myocysticercosis Presenting as Incomplete Claw Hand: A Rare Presentation of Cysticercus
Authors: Gulati Jyoti , Bedi Nidhi , Agrawal Payal , Abrol Pankaj
Published: March 2024

Human cysticercosis is an infection with the larval form of Taenia solium that commonly involves the central nervous system. Due to the infection, isolated muscular involvement is rare, and very few cases have been reported in the literature. Hereby, the authors present a rare instance of isolated muscular cysticercosis in a 15-year-old girl, resulting in an incomplete claw hand due to the compression of both the ulnar and median nerves. The patient had been experiencing swelling on the anterior aspect of her left forearm for eight months, with recent aggravation. The swelling was gradually followed by an inability to fully extend the middle and ring fingers for the past six months. The patient’s laboratory results were within normal limits, and ultrasound and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of the forearm confirmed the presence of cysticercosis. The treatment plan included a course of oral steroids and antihelminthic drugs, along with physiotherapy. In present case, the patient’s condition significantly improved with conservative management. The present case illustrates the diagnostic challenges due to the vague clinical presentation and unfamiliarity of clinicians with present entity, making it difficult to diagnose when seen as an isolated cyst. The unique manifestations of muscular cysticercosis emphasise the importance of early detection and proper management
Studies on Genetic Divergence Analysis in Black Gram (Vigna mungo L. Hepper) Genotypes

Published: March 2024

In order to select superior genotypes for the creation of genetic stock for hybridization program or the introduction of a crop variety, plant breeders can assist from genetic diversity both within and between plant species. Mahalanobis D2 Statistics was used to conduct the current study on Genetic Divergence and clustering pattern utilizing twenty eight different genotypes of Black gram. The experiment was conducted in Randomized Block Design with three replications at Plant Breeding Farm, Department of Genetics and Plant Breeding, Faculty of Agriculture, Annamalai University, Chidambaram, Tamil Nadu, India. Nine different biometrical characteristics were observed and documented viz., plant height at maturity (PH), pod length (LP), number of branches per plant (NBPP), number of clusters per plant (NCPP), number of pods per cluster (NPPC), number of pods per plant (NPPP), number of seeds per pod (NSPP), 100 seed weight (SW), and seed yield per plant (SY). All of these characters have a significant degree of variability, according to an analysis of variance. Mahalanobis (D2) static revealed considerable genetic diversity among the genotypes. Genotypes were grouped into 6 clusters. Cluster VI was the largest including 11 genotypes. The intra-cluster distance for cluster IV is the maximum and the lowest intra-cluster distance was reported for cluster II. The highest inter-cluster distance was revealed between cluster I and III and then between cluster II and III. This demonstrates unambiguously that the genotypes in this cluster exhibit a wide range of genetic variation and may be useful in a black gramme hybridization scheme to increase production. Between clusters I and II, the minimal inter-cluster distance was discovered. The percentage that each character contributed to the overall divergence was as follows: the number of pods per plant (50.997), the greater seed output (50.997), and the 100 seed weight (29.456). (8.121). It is proposed that crossings between parents from the most divergent clusters should show the highest level of heterosis as well as the greatest degree of genetic architectural variability.

Biocompatibility of Lotus‐type Stainless Steel and Titanium in Alveolar Bone
Authors: Higuchi Y. , Ohashi Y. , Nakajima H.
Published: September 2006

Lotus‐type porous stainless steel (SUS304L) and porous titanium were fabricated by unidirectional solidification in a mixture gas of hydrogen and argon. The porous metals which were cut into 5 mm cubes (non‐dehydrogenated) and 3.4 mmϕ × 5 mm cylinders (dehydrogenated) were implanted into the canine mandible alveolar bone for two, four and eight weeks for animal experiments. The changes in the tissues were observed using SEM. For porous stainless steel (cylindrical; dehydrogenated) new formation of bones was observed around the sample in two weeks without any sign of bony ingrowth into the pores. The osteogenesis was found in shallow areas in the pores in four weeks and deep in the pores in eight weeks. Porous titanium, on the other hand, showed deep ingrowth of new bones in four weeks. Our observations allowed us to expect application of the porous metals as biomaterials. They maintain mechanical strength and are lighter in weight so that it is expected to be applied for dental implants and core materials of artificial bones.

Current progress in the exciting and burgeoning field of functional defects in colloidal photonic crystals (CPCs) is reported. After a brief introduction into the importance and nature of defects in CPCs the state‐of‐the‐art in fabricating point, line, and planar defects is described. Measurement and characterization techniques as well as the corresponding theory are discussed. Besides normal, passive defects, the recent development of reversibly tunable defects adds important functionality. In particular, the addition of chemical functionality is demonstrated to open a path to a wide range of color readout devices for ultrasensitive optical detection of biomolecules and pharmaceuticals.

Published: September 2006

In this study, 26 healthy young volunteers were submitted to 900 MHz (2 W) GSM cellular phone exposure and to sham exposure in separate sessions. The study was designed to assess cardiac regulatory mechanism in different autonomic nervous system (ANS) states during exposure to low‐intensity EMF. Rest‐to‐stand protocol was applied to evaluate ANS in quiet condition (rest, vagal prevalence) and after a sympathetic activation (stand). The procedure is conducted twice in a double‐blind design: once with a genuine EMF exposure and once with a sham exposure (at least 24 h apart). During each session three‐leads electrocardiograms were recorded and RR series extracted off‐line. Time domain and frequency domain HRV parameters were calculated in every phase of the protocol and during different exposures. The analysis of the data show there was no statistically significant effect due to EMF exposure both on main (i.e., RR mean) and most of the other HRV parameters. A weak interaction between some HRV parameters (i.e., SDNN, TINN, and triangular index in time domain and LF power in frequency domain analysis) and RF exposure was observed and this effect seems to be gathered around the sympathetic response to stand.

Randomized clinical trial of single-dose antibiotic prophylaxis for non-reconstructive breast surgery
Authors: Hall J C , Willsher P C , Hall J L
Published: September 2006

Background

The aim of this randomized clinical trial was to determine whether a single intravenous dose of 2 g flucloxacillin could prevent wound infection after primary non-reconstructive breast surgery.

Methods

The study included 618 patients undergoing local excision (n = 490), mastectomy (n = 107) or microdochectomy (n = 21). Patients were randomized to receive either a single dose of flucloxacillin immediately after the induction of anaesthesia or no intervention. Wound morbidity was monitored by an independent research nurse for 42 days after surgery.

Results

The incidence of wound infection was similar in the two groups: 10 of 311 (3·2 per cent) in the flucloxacillin group and 14 of 307 (4·6 per cent) in the control group (χ2 = 0·75, P = 0·387; relative risk 0·71, 95 per cent confidence interval 0·32 to 1·53). The groups also had similar wound scores and rates of moderate or severe cellulitis. Wound infection presented a median of 16 days after surgery.

Conclusion

The administration of a single dose of flucloxacillin failed to reduce the rate of wound infection after non-reconstructive breast surgery.
Discourses for decolonization: affirming Maori authority in New Zealand workplaces
Authors: Huygens Ingrid
Published: September 2006

When dominant group members participate in the work of decolonization, their tasks are different from those of indigenous peoples. This study identifies key features of alternative discourses used by members of the dominant group in New Zealand workplaces. Sixteen accounts of organizational changes to implement te Tiriti o Waitangi, 1840, which guaranteed indigenous Maori authority, were analysed using the methods of critical discourse analysis. Two new resources were critically important to narrators of such change: (i) affirmation of self‐determined Maori authority (tino rangatiratanga) and (ii) pursuit of a ‘right relationship’ between Maori and Pakeha in a new constitutional framework of dual authorities. These discursive resources are discussed in the context of an ongoing critical dialogue between Maori and Pakeha about decolonization work. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
