KONSTANTIN PAUSTOVSKY’S LETTERS AND MANUSCRIPTS IN THE COLLECTION OF THE KONSTANTIN FEDIN STATE MUSEUM
Authors: Grigorieva Maria
Published: February 2024

The fund of the Konstantin Fedin State Museum preserve materials related to Konstantin Paustovsky. Since Fedin and Paustovsky were close friends, they corresponded extensively. The Konstantin Fedin Archive contains 26 letters from Paustovsky, with only some of which published. However, the letters that remained beyond the scope of study are of no less interest. The analysis of the epistolary with the help of inscripts and diaries helps to recreate a complete picture of the two writers’ relationship. The paper also discusses the previously unpublished materials from the Konstantin Fedin Archive of the museum. Paustovsky was very gracious about Fedin’s daughter, participated in her life and dedicated to her his stories “The Steel Ring” and “The Plain Under the Snow.” The letters from Paustovsky to Nina Fedina reveal Paustovsky’s great talent of a writer.

Authors: Ahmad Saleh , Rehman Saeedur , Ikramullah Qazi , Ahmad Iqbal
Published: February 2024

Background: Tuberculosis affects millions of people across the globe annually. Pakistan is ranked 5th among the leading TB countries in the world. Anemia is a common observation among TB patients with the multifactorial phenomenon. The present study aimed to determine the frequency of anemia in patients with pulmonary TB and its classification as per the severity and morphological characteristics.
Methodology: This retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted at DHQ Hospital Timergara, Lower Dir. A total of 109 TB patients were enrolled and underwent physical and systemic examination. Blood samples were collected to estimate complete blood counts (CBC), liver and renal function tests (LFT; RFT), serum albumin, and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels. Abdominal ultrasound was performed when any organomegaly was suspected. Hemoglobin was estimated using an automated analyzer (SYSMEX-SP100), and it was repeated via manual method among doubted cases. Written informed consent was obtained from all patients before inclusion, and the collected data was analyzed using SPSS version 22.0.
Results: There was a female majority (54%) in the studied sample, with a mean age of 38 ± 15.3 years. Majority of them belonged to low socioeconomic status (80%). Moreover, 43% of them were from Dir Lower, 30% from Dir Upper, while the remaining were from Bajaur district, Chitral, and Malakand Swat districts. Anemia was found in 82.56% of the enrolled TB patients. Most patients were moderately weak (Hb < 10 g/dl > 7 g/dl), and microcytic anemia was found in more than 80% of the anemic patients. CRP level was raised in 70% of these patients, and there was hypoalbuminemia in 80%. Furthermore, females were more anemic than males.
Conclusion: In our study, anemia was prevalent in TB patients, specifically microcytic anemia. Hence, TB patients must be monitored for dietary deficiencies and/or inflammatory modulators to avoid such complications.

Background: The management of renal stones has undergone significant advancements in recent years, with percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) and Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery (RIRS) emerging as minimally invasive alternatives to traditional Pyelolithotomy. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of Mini-PCNL and RIRS for renal stones measuring 1-2 cm, focusing on operative time, stone clearance, hospital stay, and the need for ancillary procedures.
Methodology: This retrospective study collected data from the medical records of patients admitted to The Department of Urology at The Kidney Centre, Karachi, between January 1, 2021, and August 31, 2022. The study included 100 patients who underwent RIRS and 129 patients who underwent Mini-PCNL.
Results: It was found that the operative time was statistically similar in both groups. However, the length of hospital stay was significantly higher in the Mini-PCNL group (more than 2 days in 88.4%), whereas in the RIRS group, the majority of patients stayed ≤ 2 days (78%). Overall stone clearance was 82.1%, with a slightly higher clearance rate in patients who underwent Mini-PCNL (85.3%) compared to RIRS (78%), though the p- value was not statistically significant.
Conclusion: For renal stones sized 1-2 cm, both RIRS and Mini-PCNL demonstrate efficient treatment options with comparable stone-free rates. RIRS appears more comfortable and less morbid than Mini-PCNL, with a shorter hospital stay. Although Mini-PCNL requires an extended hospital stay to treat 1- to 2-cm renal stones, it is associated with fewer complications and a reduced need for a JJ stent, making it a viable alternative to RIRS in certain cases.

Evaluación de la fermentación ruminal en vacas lecheras en pastoreo otoñal utilizando muestras de líquido ruminal obtenidas por rumenocentesis
Authors: Ruiz-Albarran Miguel , Balocchi Oscar , Wittwer Fernando , Pulido Ruben G.
Published: February 2024

Para evaluar los parámetros de fermentación ruminal se prefieren técnicas menos invasivas como la rumenocentesis. Este método se utilizó para evaluar el pH, la concentración de N-NH3 y los ácidos grasos volátiles (AGVs) en vacas lecheras. Las vacas pastorearon en dos ofertas de pradera (17 y 25 kg MS/vaca/día) y recibían ensilaje de pradera (EP) o ensilaje de maíz de planta entera (EMPE) (a razón de 6,2 kg MS/vaca/día). Los resultados mostraron que la inclusión de ensilaje de maíz en la dieta en comparación con el ensilaje de pradera provocó cambios en el pH ruminal (p < 0.05). Sin embargo, no hubo cambios significativos en las concentraciones de N-NH3 y AGVs debido al efecto de la oferta de pradera o tipo de ensilaje en la dieta. En conclusión, la rumenocentesis es una técnica menos invasiva que puede utilizarse para comparar dietas de vacas lecheras. El análisis de muestras de rumen obtenidas por rumenocentesis mostró que el ensilaje de maíz disminuyó el pH ruminal con una mayor proporción de ácidos glucógenicos.

Published: February 2024

Introduction

A minimally invasive approach in the diagnosis of peripheral pulmonary lesions may pose a challenge for thoracic surgeons when selecting the most appropriate technique. Electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy (ENB) is an innovative technique used in the diagnosis of lung tumors.

Aim

Evaluation of the merits of ENB in patient manifesting undiagnosed pulmonary and mediastinal lesions, while concurrently investigating its influence on the determination of the ultimate therapeutic strategy.

Case study

The 73-year-old male patient with a suspicious lung mass was admitted to the hospital for diagnosis and subsequent treatment. The patient underwent an invasive diagnosis of lung and mediastinum using ENB with cryobiopsy. The histopathological examination revealed adenocarcinoma and lymphoma cells, ultimately guiding the initiation of appropriate therapeutic measures.

Results and Discussion

Among the available methods, those with the highest diagnostic yield and safety should be chosen. Precise diagnosis of pulmonary lesions holds paramount importance for guiding appropriate treatment in cases of suspected malignancy.

Conclusions

ENB with cryobiopsy proves effective diagnosis in case of peripheral lesions that are difficult to access for classical techniques.
Low transverse caesarean section through the posterior uterine wall in a pregnant patient with asymptomatic uterine torsion of 180°: A case report
Authors: Kopko Jarosław , Marek Jakub , Laskowski Wojciech
Published: February 2024

Introduction

Excessive torsion of a pregnant uterus is a rare and potentially extremely dangerous pathology for both the mother and fetus. The diagnosis is most often made intraoperatively.

Aim

The main aim was to show that when it is impossible to detort the uterus, a low transverse caesarean section through the posterior uterine wall can be safely performed.

Case study

We report a case of a 41-year-old multiparous woman at G II P II 39/40 weeks' gestation, who presented to the Gynecology and Obstetrics Department for an elective caesarean section due to a breech presentation of the fetus. During the caesarean section, a uterine torsion of 180° was found. As the uterus could not be detorted to its normal position, a low transverse caesarean section was performed through the posterior uterine wall. At follow-up visits after 8 weeks and 12 months, normal healing of the uterine muscle was confirmed.

Results and discussion

The treatment of torsion of the pregnant uterus depends on gestational age and symptoms, in particular the presence of significant hemodynamic and ischemic lesions.

Conclusions

The procedure of choice in a full-term pregnancy should be an attempt to detort the uterus to its normal position and then perform a cesarean section through the anterior uterine wall. If detorsion of the uterus is not possible, a caesarean section through the posterior uterine wall should be performed. Based on the literature review and the case presented, it appears that this procedure is safe.

El bienestar y desarrollo de los seres vivos depende de la calidad sanitaria y química del agua disponible. En los últimos años se ha venido observando la importancia del ambiente en la diseminación de bacterias resistentes y multirresistentes a los antibióticos, situación que ha colocado la problemática de la resistencia en un plano más amplio y que se está estudiando desde la perspectiva “One Health”. En este sentido, el objetivo del presente trabajo fue determinar la presencia de bacterias multirresistentes a los antibióticos en muestras de agua de riego provenientes del río Chibunga. Se recolectaron 14 muestras de agua de un volumen de 100 mL cada una, en envases estériles y de manera aséptica, las cuales fueron conservadas bajo refrigeración hasta su análisis en el laboratorio. Cada muestra fue sembrada por el método de siembra en superficie en los agares cistina electrolito deficiente, MacConkey, Salmonella-Shigella, tiosulfato citrato bilis sacarosa y agar sangre, incubándose en todos los casos a una temperatura de 37 °C durante un tiempo máximo de 48 horas. La identificación de las colonias bacterianas se realizó mediante pruebas fisiológicas y bioquímicas de acuerdo con los esquemas de identificación indicados por MacFaddin. El perfil de susceptibilidad a los antibióticos de las colonias identificadas se realizó por el método de difusión en disco de Kirby Bauer. Se lograron identificar 2 especies de bacterias multirresistentes, entre ellas, cepas de Morganella morganii y Plesiomonas shigelloides resistentes a antibióticos de uso clínico como ceftazidima, aztreonam, ciprofloxacino, ácido nalidíxico y trimetroprim-sulfametoxazol. Los resultados muestran que las aguas del río Chibunga albergan bacterias con multirresistencia a los antimicrobianos, representando un riesgo de contaminación de los productos agrícolas cosechados en sus inmediaciones, así como para las personas que utilizan estas aguas.

Authors: Halimah Nur , Ubudiyah Kamilatul , Ramadhan Rachmad
Published: February 2024

Islam as an identity for Muslims originates from the Qur'an and Hadith which has important topics of discussion, one of which is politics. Even though Islam talks about politics, it does not explicitly mention the ideal form of political system. One of the characteristics of Islamic political thought during the time of Rasulullah SAW. and the Khulafa'ur Rasyidin are those which only focus on conquering or expanding territory, integration and consolidation of Islamic political power.In addition, political thought that develops also tends to be a response to the socio-political conditions that occur. This type of research from the point of view of the paradigm is qualitative research. Qualitative research aims to find conceptual meaning as a whole based on facts and sayings and actions. The research method used is library research, namely research activities that are used systematically to collect information, process and conclude data from various kinds of materials in the library. This research is descriptive analytical. Descriptively, this study aims to explain Islamic political thought in the era of the leadership of the Prophet and Khulafaur Rasyidin in Islam and the relationship between religion and the state. The research data obtained were then analyzed and interpreted to obtain adequate meaning

Currently, Indonesia is still facing a health problem, namely stunting. This condition can be caused by various factors, both directly and indirectly. Indirect causes of stunting that are currently of common concern include family conditions, both economically, socially, and the quality of parenting given to children. The purpose of this research is to analyze the effect of economic pressure and quality of life on the quality of family parenting with stunted children. This research involved 69 mothers with stunted children aged 2-5 years. The research location is in Bubulak Village, Bogor City, West Java. Sampling was done using non-probability sampling using purposive sampling technique. The correlation test shows that economic pressure has a significant correlation with the quality of life and quality of parenting. Quality of life is significantly related to the quality of parenting. The results of the regression test show that economic pressure does not affect the quality of parenting, while the child's age affects the quality of parenting, as does the quality of life which has a significant positive effect on the quality of parenting.

The utilization of money is not optimal, making the family's financial condition inefficient, which is why the family decides to get into debt at the Bank Emok. This study aims to analyze the influence of the family's debt behavior, lifestyle, economic pressure, and financial conditions (literacy and management) on the subjective economic well-being of Bank Emok customers in Bogor City. The research used a cross-sectional study design involving 150 families of Bank Emok customers selected by simple random sampling. The research instrument has adequate reliability and validity. The results of the analysis show that there are Bank Emok customers who are not categorized as poor. Many client families do not fulfill 12 years of primary education. Loans range from 2-16 million, with an average weekly installment of 138 thousand.  As many as 26,7 percent of families fall into the category of high economic pressure, which is characterized by the difficulty of families in fulfilling food, education, and life skills. The results of the regression test show that the subjective economic welfare of families is positively influenced by lifestyle, financial literacy, financial management, number of dependents, length of wife's education, and length of loan. The analyzed model contributed 27,2 percent to the subjective economic well-being of families. Families are advised to start making financial plans and implement saving habits to be used in emergencies to improve the subjective economic well-being of the family.

South Bengkulu is prone to earthquakes because it is located on the Great Sumatran Fault. Apart from that, it is also influenced by the activity of the Musi and Manna segments, so that besides being influenced by the two active tectonic plates it is also influenced by the local segment. This research is located in Manna City and Manna Market, which is mostly inhabited by people and is the capital of South Bengkulu. In connection with infrastructure development, it is necessary to know the condition of the soil layers to minimize the risk of building damage due to earthquakes. This research aims to analyze earthquake-prone areas based on dominant frequency parameters, soil amplification, seismic vulnerability index and sediment layer thickness (h). Research data comes from microtremor measurements at 60 measuring station points in Manna City and Manna Market. The tool used is a Short Period Portable Seismometer Model Gemini 2 SN-1405. This microtremor data is processed using the Horizontal to Vertical Spectral Ratio (HVSR) method. The results of data processing show that the research area has the lowest dominant frequency of 3.95 Hz and the highest of 49.71 Hz. The ground vibration amplification value is classified as small to medium, the lowest is 1.3 and the highest is 5.19. The lowest earthquake vulnerability index was 0.18 cm2/s and the highest was 2.24 cm2/s. The smallest sediment thickness was 3.77 meters and the thickest was 47.48 meters. From the results of the calculation of the seismic vulnerability index in Kota Manna and Pasar Manna Districts, the seismic vulnerability index value is relatively small, in accordance with the amplification factor and the thickness of the sediment layer. Based on this research, although Manna City and Manna Market are often shaken by earthquakes, the earthquake vibrations experience small amplification.

Fe3O4 nanoparticles made from the natural iron sands of the Gelar River have been successfully synthesized using the coprecipitation method. Test the content of Fe elements in pure iron sand and characterize them using XRF after separation. Fe3O4 nanoparticle characterization uses XRD to determine the sample's lattice parameters and crystal size. The nanoparticles' morphology, structure, particle shape, and elemental content were characterized using SEM-E DX. Magnetic properties and magnetic saturation values are characterized using VSM. XRF yield on iron sand before separation contains Fe 59.46%. After separation, the Fe content rose to 84.72%. The synthesis results obtained brownish-black Fe3O4 nanoparticle powder that permanent magnets can attract. Based on the XRD results, the crystal structure formed is cubic inverse spinel with crystal lattice  Å with a particle size of 14.8 nm. The SEM-EDX results show the morphology of spherical nanoparticles with multiple agglomerations. Particle size is 40 nm. The EDX spectrum confirmed the formation of Fe3O4 nanoparticles in the presence of Fe (51.79%) and O (25.68%). The VSM results show that Fe3O4 samples have ferromagnetic properties with saturation magnetization (MS) = 27.36 emu/g, remanent magnetization (Mr) = -0.01 emu/g, and coercivity field (Hc) = 0.01 T.
