Authors: Soares Gilandira Ivanda Da Costa , Furtado Josmara Ximenes Andrade
Published: January 2022

Introduction: The triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is one of the most aggressive types of breast cancer, corresponding to about 15% to 20% of invasive breast tumors. They are those tumors that in immunohistochemistry do not express homone receptors and epidermal growth factor type 2 (cerbB2). This tumor phenotype does not yield many treatment options, beyond standard chemotherapy, and within this context, the evidence of some markers of this type of tumor may contribute to the discovery of more effective types of treatment. Case report and Objectives: The aim of this study was to define predictive and prognostic factors in TNBC that could be related with a pathologic complete response after neoadjuvant chemotherapy treatment. Methods: A descriptive and retrospective study, a case series type, in women with TNBC who had underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy and surgery at the Mastology Service of Maternidade Escola Assis Chateaubriand – Brazil - from May 2015 to June 2020. A statistical analysis was performed considering the 5% significance level. Results: From 108 women, only 47 were included in the study, with median age of 49 years (+14 years); about 30 (42.6%) had a family history of breast cancer in first or seconddegree relatives. About 44 (93.6%) cases were classified as invasive ductal tumor and grade II or III; the value of Ki67 greater than 14% was evidenced in 46 (97.9%) women and 26 (55.3%) had clinical stage III. Pathologic complete response to chemotherapy was evidenced in 16 (34%) cases, partial response in 13 (27.7%) and no response in 18 (38.3%) cases. The latter cases correspondeded to those who had stable or progression of disease. There was recurrence in 13 (27.7%) women, about 8 distant metastases, with the lungs as the most frequent site of metastasis followed by the brain. Eleven patients, about 23.4%, died. In the survival analysis of the studied population, the overall survival was 5.6 months and disease-free survival was 19.4 months. No association was observed in the study between the outcome of pathologic complete response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy and anatomopathological characteristics of the tumor. Conclusion: The results of this study did not show statistical significance to determine the possible predictive and prognostic factors for obtaining a complete clinical response to TNBC in a public reference service for the treatment of breast cancer, where there is no genetic signature, PDL1 status or access to differentiated treatment for such a heterogeneous tumor profil. This shows a need for further studies in order to understand this disease and for greater accessibility to high-cost exams and more effective treatments.

Published: January 2022

Introduction: Obesity is a multifactorial chronic disease that can predispose to several comorbidities, including breast cancer. The Department of Health estimates the number of overweight people in Brazil is 65%. The relationship between weight and height (BMI, Body Mass Index) has been used by WHO to assess the degree of obesity in the population. Breast cancer is responsible for more than 8,000 deaths each year in Brazil. Despite advances in systemic treatment, surgery is one of the main treatments used, and obesity is a relevant factor that worsens the oncological prognosis and is predictive of perioperative complications. Objectives: The aim of this study is to assess the relationship between obesity and surgical complications in 5,657 breast cancer patients undergoing surgical treatment (conservative or radical) at Pérola Byington Hospital. Methods: A retrospective, cross-sectional study was carried out with 5,657 patients undergoing surgical treatment (conservative or radical) by the Braziliann Unified Health System (SUS) at the Women’s Health Reference Center at Hospital Pérola Byington from January 2011 to December 2019. Data were collected from the medical records of the institution. The patients were divided into six groups according to BMI=W/H2 (25), followed by hematoma, diagnosed in 72 patients, 59.7% overweight women. The third most common complication was infection of the surgical site in only 19 patients (0.3%), with 78.9% in overweight women. This fact can be explained by inadequate perfusion, deficiency of macro and micronutrients and hypoxia that impairs collagen synthesis, resulting in poor healing, causing dehiscence. From these data presented, it is possible to infer thatcomplications such as seroma, hematoma, infection of the surgical wound, dehiscence, and even loss of the surgical flap are strongly associated with increased body weight. Conclusions: We came to the conclusion that the increase in body weight, especially in patients with a BMI> 25, is an unfavorable factor for the occurrence of surgical complications in patients with breast cancer, and it is essential to provide guidance on the risks of complications in the preoperative evaluation for adjusting the best surgical procedure and mainly for considering late reconstruction.

Introduction: The technique of breast reconstruction using silicone implants is the predominant way for breast reconstruction worldwide. Over the last years there has been a growing interest in performing immediate reconstruction with single stage implantation after mastectomy as an attempt to simplify the reconstruction procedure and improve psychosocial morbidity, as well reducing costs. The reconstruction with single stage suggests a slightly higher complication rate related to implant loss. Objectives: To evaluate the immediate complications (up to 30 days after surgery) and late complications (30 days to two years after surgery) resulting from immediate breast reconstruction with implants in patients with breast cancer treated at a tertiary hospital in Ceará. Methods: Analytical observational study of a retrospective cohort, from the review of medical records of patients undergoing immediate breast reconstruction with prosthesis or temporary extensor after mastectomy for breast cancer, at Maternidade Escola Assis de Chateaubriand, from 2015 to 2019. Establishing the prevalence among the common characteristics related both to the surgical procedure to which they were submitted, and to the clinical-epidemiological profile of the patients. Results: The study was made with 63 women who underwent immediate breast reconstruction with a mean age of 47 years. It was observed that immediate and onetime breast reconstruction was the most prevalent, contributing with 77.7% of the cases analyzed. In 19 cases (30.1%), we observed some type of surgical complication, with surgical wound dehiscence being the most frequent (42.1%). Other complications detected were infection and implant loss (21.1%), capsular contracture (15.8%), seroma (10%), cellulitis (5.3%), and rupture of the expander (5.3%). Surgical complications were assessed according to the type of implant (prosthesis or temporary expander), use of radiotherapy and clinical conditions of patients. No statistical significance was found for these variables with surgical complications. Only the type of mastectomy performed was statistically significant, with radical mastectomy associated with half of the complications (p=0.045). Conclusions: Immediate breast reconstruction with single-time implant was the most used technique in our service, with a postoperative complication rate of around 30%. However, the biggest complication was the dehiscence of the surgical wound, but the infection of the implant did not cause the loss of reconstruction. Radiotherapy was not related to complications until two years after surgery.

Published: January 2022

Introduction: Porocarcinoma (PC) is a malignant neoplasm of the eccrine sweat glands, corresponding to 0.005% to 0.001% of skin tumors. There are reports of only two cases with primary localization on the breast from a total of 206 cases of pororcarcinoma according to a systematic review conducted by Nazeemi et al. (2018), from 1963 to 2017. The most common anatomical locations are the lower limbs, the head and the neck. This pathology affects elderly individuals and has a similar incidence among genders. This malignant neoplasm usually presents as a single nodule or a plaque with a verrucous or ulcerated surface, sometimes there is a long history of evolution. The most common site of metastases is regional lymph nodes. The pathogenesis of PC is uncertain. This neoplasm originates from the terminal cells of the intradermal segment of the sweat gland called acrosyringeum. In the histological study, the porocacinoma cells may be restricted in the epidermis or infiltrate the entire dermis, the epithelial proliferation of intradermal tumor cells in nests causes acanthosis of the epidermis and hyperkeratosis, cords and polygonal tumor cells proliferate in the dermis with figures of mitosis and areas of necrosis, often ductal differentiation with intracytoplasmic lumina. Immunohistochemical shows positivity for carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), cytokeratin (CK), pancytokeratin and CK5/6, epithelial membrane antigen (EMA), p53, p63 and CD117. The main treatment is local resection with margins. Sentinel lymph node biopsy can be considered for patients without palpable ganglion, and the performing axillary lymphadenectomy in the context of regional lymphadenopathy. Adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy can be performed in cases of metastatic PC and local recurrence. Case report: An 82-year-old man presenting with a skin lesion on his right breast with progressive growth, associated with local discomfort and bleeding over two years. He presented a large vegetative, hyperchromic, ulcerated bleeding and painless tumor in the right breast, with an extension beyond the inframammary fold, measuring about 8 cm in diameter and ipsilateral axillary lymphadenopathy. No evidence of metastasis on chest and in abdominal tomography. The incisional biopsy showed porocarcinoma, the surgical treatment performfed was mastectomy and axillary lymphadenectomy. The histological study revealed an undifferentiated keratinizing carcinoma of the skin, infiltrating the mammary parenchyma, associated with angiolymphatic infiltration and the presence of necrosis and ulceration with free margins, in addition to two metastatic axillary lymph nodes. An immunohistochemical analysis revealed positive cells for EMA, p63, CKAE1AE3 and a K167 proliferation index of 60% confirming the diagnosis of pororcarcinoma. Local treatment was supplemented with adjuvant radiotherapy

Introduction: The evolution regarding chemotherapy treatment through new medications and new regimens in women with a history of breast cancer over time allowed better therapeutic responses to the disease. One of the consequences of chemotherapy concerns the impairment of the follicular reserve and its hormonal production. Objectives: To assess the importance of the bleeding pattern in women with a history of breast cancer who underwent chemotherapy and the impact on the follicular population in determining ovarian failure. Methods: Between August and December 2020, 419 women were seen at the Family Planning outpatient clinic of the Women’s Health Reference Center (Hospital Pérola Byington), São Paulo, with 109 women having a history of breast cancer and undergoing a cross-sectional study, regarding the epidemiological characteristics of the care, the consequences to the bleeding pattern after chemotherapy treatment and the need for safe contraception. Results: The average age of women was 42.0 years, and the brown color was more prevalent in 49 women (45.0%). The mean age at diagnosis of breast cancer was 37.9 years, with 104 women (95.4%) presenting with invasive carcinoma and five cases (4.6%) with carcinoma in situ. Among the types of invasive carcinoma, luminal type B was present in 42 women (40.4%), HER2 in 25 (24.0%), triple negative in 19 (18.3%) and luminal A in 18 (17.3) %). 91 women (83.5%) underwent chemotherapy, and 82 other underwent hormonal treatment (75.2%), with 78 of them (95.1%) using tamoxifen. Obesity was present in 39 women (35.8%). Regarding the menstrual pattern, 38 women (34.9%) had amenorrhea after chemotherapy, but only six (15.8%) had confirmed laboratory menopause. Contraception through the copper intrauterine device (IUD) was performed in 82 of them (75.2%). Conclusions: Amenorrhea as a bleeding pattern after chemotherapy can be caused by impairment in the follicular population, causing ovarian failure and difficulty in pregnancy. On the other hand, contraception through a safe method such as copper IUDs until laboratory confirmation of menopausal status must be adopted. New studies should be carried out to better clarify this situation.

Introduction: We have originally introduced the concept of ultra young women (UYW), defined as age ≤30 years old. It is generally accepted that UYW patients with breast cancer (BC) share some unfavorable outcomes and the patients are faced with family and professional problems, and unique quality of life issues, including loss of fertility, contraception, pregnancy, sexuality, cancer during pregnancy, body image and emotional distress, that complicate treatment decisions making. Objectives: Study the type of surgical and systemic treatment and oncologic outcomes in UYW with BC. Methods: We conducted a multicentric, observational, retrospective study of consecutive BC UYW patients. Only patients with infiltrating BC were included. Nine Mastology Centers located in the State of São Paulo participated. The following data were recorded: type of surgery, chemotherapy, endocrinetherapy, and radiotherapy. Individual oncologic evolution was analyzed and the patients were classified as alive without disease (AWD), alive with local recurrence (ALR), alive with systemic recurrence (ASR), died from BC (DBC) or died from another cause (DOC). The research protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of all Collaborative Centers. Results: Sixteen percent of UYW with BC underwent mastectomies, 10% nipple-sparing mastectomies and 16% breast conservative surgeries. About 50% had immediated breast reconstruction. Sentinel node biopsy was performed in 24%. 18% had more than four compromised LNs, 8% with extracapsular leak. 37% received adjuvant or palliative chemotherapy. 61% were submitted to irradiation. 54% had adjuvant hormonetherapy. The mean time of follow-up was 41.5 months (1.5-207). It was observed that 59% were AWD, 1% ALR, 7% ASR and 23% DBC, unfortunately standing out the elevated contingent of BC-related deaths. Conclusions: BC therapy in UYW were tailored according to individual characteristics, but the oncological outcomes in this age range at the moment could be considered unfavorable.

Most radio stations use frequency modulation (FM) to broadcast yet amplitude modulation (AM) ensures long distance modulation. The limitations of FM reception are the line of sight and the area of reception. These two parameters are much smaller in FM compared to AM which makes AM modulation have an added advantage over FM modulation. The results presented in this paper include; direct modulation at different bias currents and different transmission fiber lengths and the amplitude modulation using the Mach-Zehnder. The results show the possibility to transmit huge data at high speeds to over 100Gbps.

This paper presents the spectral reflectance of thermally evaporated ZnS/Ag nanostructures. The coating of ZnS/Ag nanostructures was performed in two steps while varying the film thickness and deposition angle. Silver metal wire (99.99% purity) was heated under vacuum at a pressure of \(2.5 \times 10^{-5}\) mBars and deposited on glass slide substrates in the diffusion pump microprocessor vacuum coater (Edwards AUTO 306). Pieces of zinc sulphide (99.99% purity) were heated and deposited to the glass slides previously coated with silver to form the ZnS/Ag/glass composite. The optical reflectance of the samples was studied by the UV/Vis/NIR spectrometer (Perkin Elmer Lambda 19) with UV-WinLab software. The reflectance was measured at angles of incidence between \(15^o\) and \(75^o\). Spectrophotometric studies showed that reflectance decreased with decrease in film thickness and decreased with increase in deposition angle of silver nanoparticles. The reflectance of ZnS/Ag nanostructures decreased with increase in deposition angle of zinc sulphide.

Let \(G\) be a simple graph with vertex set \(V=\{v_1,v_2,\ldots,v_n \}\), and let \(d_i\) be the degree of the vertex \(v_i\). The Sombor matrix of \(G\) is the square matrix \(\mathbf A_{SO}\) of order \(n\), whose \((i,j)\)-element is \(\sqrt{d_i^2+d_j^2}\) if \(v_i\) and \(v_j\) are adjacent, and zero otherwise. We study the characteristic polynomial, spectrum, and energy of \(\mathbf A_{SO}\). A few results for the coefficients of the characteristic polynomial, and bounds for the energy of \(\mathbf A_{SO}\) are established.
Sport Paradox: Sudden cardiac death
Authors: Muhammad Gazi Yasargil
Published: January 2022

One of the advantages of exercise/physical exercise is improvement of cardiovascular health, however if exercise is done incorrectly, it can lead to negative side-effects that are detrimental to the health of cardiovascular system. One of these side-effects is Sudden Cardiac Death (SDC) or Sprots-related Sudden Cardiac Death (SrSCD). The purpose of this literature review is to find out the cause of SrSCD dan how to prevent it. This Study finds that SrSCD occurs mostly in athletes aged >35 and the majority cause is due to coronary arterial disease (CAD), while in athletes aged <35 the majority cause is due to sudden arrhythmic death syndrome (SADS). SCD can be prevented by doing preparticipation screening, using the “start low, go slow” approach in exercise, following an exercise program that fits to the individual health condition, and management of risk factors.

Tea beverage is reputed worldwide for its numerous medicinal and nutritional benefits. Hot and humid climate is a major abiotic constraint to the cultivation of tea in Southwest Nigeria. Planting tea with shade trees has been used to ameliorate the adverse effects of hot climate on tea. A field experiment was carried out in Cocoa Research Institute of Nigeria stations in Ibadan and Owena, Southwest Nigeria to evaluate the growth and seedling establishment of tea plant under plantain shade. Two tea cultivars (C143 and C318) were planted on the field under three shade regimes (two plantain planting densities [1111 plantain ha-1 and 2222 plantain ha-1] and control [zero shade]). The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design arranged in Split-plots with four replications. Data on Number of Leaves (NL), Number of Branches (NB), Leaf Area (LA), Plant Height (PH), Stem Diameter (SD) and Survival Count (SC) were collected and analysed with ANOVA and descriptive statistics at α0.05. The results showed that cultivar 143 was significantly better than cultivar 318 in NL, NB, LA, SD and SC in Ibadan and Owena. In Ibadan, plantain density of 2222 increased NL, NB, PH, SD and LA by 24%, 58%, 69%, 89% and 180%, respectively in comparison with 1111 plantain ha-1, and by 198%, 228%, 320%, 240% and 2364%, respectively compared to zero shade. In Owena, 2222 plantain ha-1 increased NL, NB, PH, SD and LA by 17%, 7%, 27%, 8% and 55%, respectively in comparison with 1111 plantain ha-1, and by 94%, 60%, 64%, 18% and 106%, respectively compared to zero shade. Highest tea seedling SC of 79.43% and 78.69% in Ibadan and Owena, respectively was caused by 2222 plantain ha-1. In Ibadan, highest NL (20.06), NB (5.81) and SD (0.53) were recorded in C143 under 1111 plantain ha-1; while in Owena, highest NL (82.81), NB (16.56), SD (0.96) and LA (6295.84) were enhanced in C143 under 2222 plantain ha-1. In conclusion, growing tea cultivar 143 under 1111 plantain/ha and 2222 plantain/ha shade densities enhanced its growth and seedling establishment in Ibadan and Owena.
New Logging Tool for Enhanced Oil Recovery and Gas Storage Monitoring Applications

Published: January 2022

There is currently no production logging tool that can analyze in-situ gas composition in wells that intersect more than one pay zone. In high-value gas wells, zonal isolation is useful for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) applications such as injection monitoring, pressure maintenance, and identification of layers that contain low-calorific-value gas. To unlock these key applications related to gas reservoir management, a new production logging tool was developed that introduces downhole gas composition analysis to the production logging tool string. The tool does not require a formation seal and so can log continuously or at a station. For gas field applications with pressures above 3,000 psi, the estimated mole fraction errors in continuous logging mode are ~2% for methane and ~1% for ethane, propane, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide. In formations with lower pressures, station logs can achieve mole fraction errors < 1% for all components.

Authors: Sari Syasya Adinta Cipta
Published: January 2022

Sistem distribusi yang baik menjadi kunci utama dalam berbagai kegiatan yang berhubungan dengan pengiriman maupun penerimaan barang. Jalur distribusi tidak hanya mengandalkan konsep semata, melainkan juga butuh pendataan yang jelas dan rinci. Dalam penelitian ini, proses distribusi bubuk abate yang diterapkan kader Jumantik masih tergolong sederhana yaitu bubuk abate langsung didistribusikan dari Puskesmas ke Petugas Jumantik untuk diberikan kepada warga yang rumahnya berstatus positif jentik nyamuk Aedes aegypti. Maka dalam perancangan aplikasi pendistribusian abate ini, penulis menggunakan salah satu konsep dalam distribusi yaitu metode direct shipment. Metode direct shipment dipilih karena metode ini memfokuskan pendistribusian secara langsung tanpa adanya titik – titik penyimpanan sementara. Tujuan yang ingin dicapai dari penelitian ini ialah merancang suatu aplikasi distribusi bubuk abate dengan menerapkan metode direct shipment, dimana proses distribusi abate menjadi lebih tepat sasaran bagi warga yang rumahnya berstatus positif jentik nyamuk. Sementara, permasalahan yang dapat timbul dari direct shipment ialah biaya transportasi yang cenderung lebih besar. Serta aplikasi ini hanya mencatat distribusi abate dari petugas ke warga. Kata Kunci : Distribusi, Direct Shipment, Aplikasi, Bubuk Abate.
