A obesidade é a doença nutricional frequente em cães e gatos, leva a uma série de alterações nas funções corporais e limita a longevidade dos animais. Vários fatores contribuem para o desenvolvimento da obesidade nos animais, como genética, idade, raça, falta de atividade física, composição calórica dos alimentos, tipo e a forma de alimentação, distúrbios hormonais, medicamentos e fatores relacionados com os proprietários. Devido à falta de estudos relacionados ao tema, o presente estudo teve como objetivo obter informações através da avaliação dos aspectos hematológicos e bioquímicos envolvidos no desenvolvimento da obesidade animal, assim como obter informações por meio de um questionário aplicado aos tutores sobre o conhecimento da obesidade em cães e gatos. Foram selecionados 20 animais, dos quais 50% apresentavam sobrepeso e os outros 50% eram obesos, seguindo o escore de condição corporal (ECC), descritos por LAFLAMME (1997). No hemograma os valores permaneceram dentro do valor de referência da espécie, já na análise bioquímica foi evidenciadas alterações na concentração de colesterol, glicose, triglicérides e creatinina, essas alterações interferem no bem estar e na longevidade dos animas com sobrepeso ou obesos. De acordo com o questionário os tutores dificilmente reconhecem a obesidade como uma alteração clínica que possa trazer graves consequências a seus animais.

Published: December 2020

OBJETIVO: Analisar correlação entre concentrações mensais de poluentes atmosféricos, variações climáticas e taxas de internações hospitalares por DPOC na cidade de São Paulo. MÉTODO: Estudo de série temporal, abrangendo o período de janeiro de 2014 a dezembro de 2015. Coletou-se dados mensais das internações por “bronquite, enfisema e outras doenças pulmonares obstrutivas crônicas” em São Paulo, a partir do DATASUS, e calculou-se as taxas de internação por 100.000 habitantes baseado em estimativas populacionais do IBGE. Dados sobre umidade relativa do ar, temperatura média, precipitação total e concentrações de poluentes atmosféricos (material particulado fino e monóxido de carbono) foram obtidos de dados diários do Sistema de Informações Ambientais (SISAM) e calculadas médias mensais ou, no caso da precipitação, a somatória mensal. Para as correlações entre as variáveis utilizou- se o teste de correlação de Pearson. RESULTADOS: As taxas de internações mensais por DPOC apresentaram correlação positiva com o material particulado inalável (ρ=0,869; p-valor <0,01) e monóxido de carbono (ρ=0,80; p-valor <0,01), enquanto apresentou correlação negativa com temperatura (ρ=-0,771; p-valor <0,01) e precipitação mensal total (ρ=-0,730; p- valor <0,01). O teste de correlação entre internações e a umidade do ar não foi estatisticamente significante. CONCLUSÃO: As taxas de internação por DPOC apresentaram correlação positiva com os níveis de poluentes na cidade de São Paulo durante o período analisado. Políticas para a implantação de monitoramento dos níveis de poluentes atmosféricos bem como a intensificação de medidas que os reduzam são obrigatórias, frente ao seu impacto na saúde.

Exploración del cuantificador “todo” como recurso de GRADACIÓN de valoraciones en un corpus de español oral conformado por un grupo de madres de Santiago de Chile
Authors: Gajardo Moller Consuelo , Castro Claudia
Published: December 2020

Este artículo describe el uso del cuantificador todo como recurso de gradación (Martin y White 2005; Hood 2010, 2019) en un corpus de español oral, compuesto por los relatos de un grupo de madres de Santiago de Chile. Los resultados muestran que el cuantificador todo realiza significados congruentes con su función cuantificadora y, adicionalmente, despliega realizaciones menos congruentes, donde cumple una función intensificadora, como también la de graduar una categoría semántica en términos de prototicipidad y de completitud. El análisis demuestra que estas realizaciones de todo como recursos de gradación tienen un rol significativo en la evocación de valoraciones involucradas en la construcción de identidades maternas particulares.

Published: December 2020

Este trabalho objetiva discutir aspectos discursivos das violências políticas de gênero vivenciadas por parlamentares brasileiras, considerando uma entrevista concedida por jovem Deputada empossada no ano de 2019. A análise de dinâmicas identificacionais do texto, com base em Resende e Ramalho (2019), van Leeuwen (1997), Castells (1999) e van Dijk (2017), permitiu compreender vieses sociais e discursivos nessa diferenciação e subordinação de gêneros sociais, ao investigar propriedades do discurso como o uso de expressões dêiticas, o tópico ou macroproposição da entrevista, as manobras de persuasão, os pressupostos e os acarretamentos lógicos ou inferências, as escolhas lexicais. Conclui-se que, para as mulheres, há relevante inter-relação entre o êxito nas eleições, o acúmulo de capital educacional e letramento político, além de acumulação e mobilização de recursos como capital econômico, visibilidade e inserção em posições de prestígio social (Vogel, 2019b).

Authors: Basu Anindya , Khan Imran , Jana Debarshi
Published: December 2020

Background: Distal femoral fractures are uncommon, usually complex and account for about 7% of all femoral fractures. These fractures often are unstable and comminuted and tend to occur in elderly or multiply injured patients. The incidence is highest in women older than 75 years and in adolescent boys and men 15-24 years.
Aim: To compare the results of different modes of internal fixation of different type of distal femur fractures by Distal Femoral Nail and Dynamic Condylar Screw.
Materials and Methods: The study was conducted in the department of orthopedics, R.G. Kar Medical College & Hospital; 1,K.B. Sarani, Kolkata – 700004. The main source of patients was those adults presenting with distal femoral fractures attending either emergency or outdoor & also patients referred from peripheral hospitals. Distal femoral fractures of AO/OTA type A fractures (i.e. extra-articular supracondylar) & AO/OTA type C1 & C2 fractures (i.e. articular simple, metaphyseal simple type & articular simple & metaphyseal multifragmentary type respectively).
Results: Most of the patients were operated on an average of 6.5th day from injury. Average intra-operative blood loss and operating time for DFN were significantly low compared to the other group. The average duration of hospital stay was 14.7 days overall. No groups showed significant higher duration of the same.
Conclusion: Dynamic condylar Screws give results in treating pure supracondylar or complete intraarticular fractures, although with less satisfactory outcomes especially in the latter.

Published: December 2020

Globally, glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness. In India approx. 11.2 million People aged above 40 years are affected with glaucoma. Studies shows that the prevalence of this disease increases with age & more than 90% are unaware of it. Lack of awareness about glaucoma is an important reason for its late presentation which significantly increases the risk of blindness. A Hospital based cross sectional study was conducted in the ophthalmology department of NMCH, Patna. Total 1860 patients of age group 20-80 years coming to OPD were enrolled for the study. The study was conducted by using a pre structured questionnaires. The questions were in English & local language (Hindi). Each question had 3 options and patient had to choose one. Source of information about glaucoma was also enquired. Data were collected through face to face interviews. In our study overall awareness on glaucoma was 16.02%. Male patients were comparatively more aware than females. Similarly urban & semi-urban residents were more aware than rural population. As the age and education increased level of awareness & knowledge increased. Major source of information was from doctors, health personnel & mass media. A large number of participants had heard about the local term used for glaucoma i.e. kalamotia but few were actually aware about it and very few were aware of the fact that in glaucoma, the raised intraocular pressure damage the nerve resulting in blindness. Progression of glaucoma can only prevented by early diagnosis and treatment. So, awareness about the glaucoma will help in early detection, a very important step in preventing glaucoma related blindness. We can decrease the prevalence of glaucoma by spreading awareness and screening of risk group population.

A DIAGNOSTIC PITFALL: PANCREATIC TUBERCULOSIS MASQUERADING AS PANCREATIC CARCINOMA
Authors: Dasgupta Amitrajit , Banerjee Indranil
Published: December 2020

Isolated cases of Pancreatic Tuberculosis remains a rare entity even in countries with a high incidence of Tuberculosis. It presents as a hypoechoic mass on ultrasonography and imaging mimicking pancreatic malignancy. Consequently, it represents a diagnostic challenge both clinically (due to a similar array of symptoms) and radiologically. The diagnosis often requires tissue biopsy. The possibility of TB should be considered in the list of differential diagnoses of pancreatic mass and an endoscopic, ultrasound-guided biopsy might help to clinch the diagnosis of this potentially curable disease. Here, we report a case with symptoms of abdominal pain, progressive jaundice, and anorexia and weight loss, diagnosed to be a case of Disseminated Tuberculosis (Pancreatic TB) following Endoscopic Ultrasound guided FNAC of peri-pancreatic lymph nodes.

COMPARATIVE STUDY OF ANAEMIA CASES BASED ON PERIPHERAL BLOOD SMEARS AND CELL COUNTER GENERATED RED CELL INDICES
Authors: Jha Durga Nand , Chaudhary Ajit Kumar , Jana Debarshi
Published: December 2020

Background:
Analyzing peripheral blood smears routinely has facilitated interpretation of various hematological disorders and has been a major diagnostic tool. The advent of automated hematology cell counter has improved accuracy, precision and safety. There is still a need to depend on manual techniques for primary calibration. This highlights the importance of maintaining the manual technical skills, Thus, the present study was undertaken to compare anaemia cases based on peripheral blood smears and cell counter generated Red blood cell (RBC) Indices.
Material and Methods: The peripheral blood smears in anaemia were evaluated and compared it with cell counter generated red cell indices of 500 anemic patients. The automated analyzer SYSMEX XP-100 was used.Simultaneously, a peripheral smear was prepared according to standard operating procedures and stained by Leishman stain.
Results: The cases consisted of normocytic normochromic anaemia (14%), microcytic hypochromic anaemia (76.2%), macrocytic anaemia (0.4%) and dimorphic anaemia (13.4%). In normocytic normochromic anaemia on peripheral smears 65.7% showed normal curve. In microcytic hypochromic anaemia 81.1% showed left shift. In cases of macrocytic anaemia 100% histogram showed right shift. Majority of the curves in dimorphic anaemia showed broad based curve (46.26%).
Discussion: The relationship between histogram patterns and peripheral smear diagnosis in dimorphic anaemia posed queries regarding the validity of histocytograms. Hence, peripheral smear examination along with clinical history is an important diagnostic tool while handling the patients with hematological conditions.

Material and Methods: In this study, a total of 140 elderly patients suffering from urinary tract infection were included from a tertiary care hospital, Kolkata for a period of 12 months from January 2017 to December 2017. Patients included in the study will be considered for sensitivity profile study. Every patient will be thoroughly evaluated with careful history taking, thorough clinical examinations, and necessary investigations.
Results: UTI is an important cause of morbidity and sepsis in elderly patients having a spectrum varying from benign cystitis to potentially life-threatening pyelonephritis. We found that the Enterobacteriaceae groups of microorganism were the most common etiology with fungus being less common. The majority of the microorganisms were sensitive to fosfomycin, polymyxin B, and colistin.
Conclusion: In conclusion, elderly populations with urinary tract infections require early diagnosis and focussed therapy to reduce the morbidity and mortality

Background: Approximately 80% of the cholecystectomies are performed laparoscopically. Traditionally, acute cholecystitis is treated conservatively followed by delayed cholecystectomy 6-8 weeks after the acute attack. Various studies have addressed the optimal timing of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) in patients with acute cholecystitis. The aim of this study was to compare early and delayed laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted in 60 patients presenting with acute cholecystitis to compare early and delayed laparoscopic cholecystectomy, focussing on intra-operative and postoperative parameters like duration of surgery, surgical difficulties and complications, analgesic requirement, duration of postoperative hospital stay and wound related complications.
Results: Longer operation times were required in the early group. Postoperative pain scores and analgesic requirements were almost similar in two groups. The cost of treatment in the delayed group was significantly higher.
Conclusion: Though early laparoscopic cholecystectomy required longer operative times, it resulted in reduced the cost of treatment than delayed LC.

In article the made attempt to tell about some scientific schools in the field of digital electronic computer facilities in days of its formation. It is necessary to note results of huge self-denying work of collectives scientific and operated them on maintenance with computer facilities of space researches, atomic engineering, rocket production, the first class systems of supervision over space, antimissile і antiaircraft defence. Necessity of the additional information at studying of such disciplines as: «Computer science», «the Engineering and computer drawing», «Metrology», «Standardization», etc. has shown, that it is necessary to give on employment to students an additional material from history of development of digital systems in different fields of knowledge. Therefore we have laid down for ourselves the aim in given article to result some examples of historical aspects of development of digital measuring systems in Ukraine and their industrial application. This additional information can be used at studying of discipline «Standardization» with attraction general The technical, and also profile subjects. The huge role in formation of a new direction (computing systems) was brought by Victor Mihajlovich Glushkov. In December, 1957 the laboratory has been transformed to Computer centre AN USSR with the scientific research institute rights. In 1962 the Computer centre has been transformed to Institute of cybernetics AN USSR which director till the end of a life there was V. M. Glushkov. At this institute under the guidance of Victor Mihajlovicha there were created tens types of the COMPUTER, many of which not only answered the world standards, but also have opened absolutely new directions in computer facilities development. So, for example, cars of a series the WORLD (the car for engineering calculations) became a prototype of personal computers. It has been even more designed different operating systems and complexes.

The article focuses on modern technologies of teaching English, as well as examines the main aspects of interactive learning of a foreign language due to the need to develop and improve students' communication skills. The main functions of using modern technologies are substantiated and determined, which significantly contribute to the effective learning of communicative skills. Technology, in one form or another, has always been part of the teaching and learning environment. It is part of the teacher’s professional toolbox. In other words, it is among the resources that teachers use to help facilitate student learning. Technology has changed dramatically over recent decades. The increasing variety and accessibility of technology has expanded the toolbox and the opportunities teachers have to use technology. Computer devices are more powerful and come in different forms, from those that sit on our desks to those that sit in the palm of our hands. The internet connects those devices and connects students to each other in the classroom, through the school and around the world. Technological devices and networks have changed our schools and classrooms. One of the main distinctive features of today’s education is the problem of developing new technologies of classroom activities. This process is usually accompanied with a series of obstacles that do not leave the teaching and learning process unmarked. Technology classroom activities differ greatly from the traditional ones. The teacher should take into account various methodological, psychological, linguistic and physical aspects that impact the process of learning of foreign language. By using the Internet the teacher will present the students powerful and interesting opportunities for communication, interaction and collaboration. Students should be encouraged to communicate not just with their group mates in the classroom but with those who are physically and geographically apart. Doing this, new ways for practicing language are opening. Supporting the integration tendencies of cognition, the process of education informatisation actualizes the design and development of approaches to the potential use of information technologies in order to develop the personality of a student, his alternative thinking, imagination, attention and abilities. The media along with the emerging technology can be an excellent tool to teach a foreign language. The usage of such devices does not reject traditional methods or undermine their importance, but rather supports and completes the whole process of teaching and learning by offering alternative forms of spreading the knowledge and putting it into practice. With the help of activities involving multimedia, the classroom becomes more dynamic and interesting place which makes learning more efficient and pleasant. However, the implementation of such exercises depends on the presence of electronic devices in the classroom.

The article analyzes various studies and publications of Ukrainian and foreign scholars-educators related to the organization of innovative activities in the education system. Innovations in pedagogical and music-pedagogical activity in the XX and XXI centuries are considered. The concepts of «technology» and «pedagogical technology» are defined. Attention is drawn to the pedagogical technologies used in the work of outstanding scientists-pedagogues: K. Ushinsky, B. Grinchenko, A. Makarenko, S. Shatsky, V. Shatskaya, V. Sukhomlinsky, O. Rostovsky, V. Shatalov, M. Shchetinin, E. Ilyin. There are also four stages in the development of the information technology of teaching in the field of view of the author, namely: verbal – audiovisual – programmable – multimedia and hypermedia. The approximate life of each of the four stages is determined. The modern pedagogical technologies of teaching in the higher educational establishments are characterized. First and foremost, it is computer and multimedia technologies that allow the use of a multifaceted field of information by means of technical means, first of all, of the computer, in the most optimal form of learning and information hypermedia environment. The historical analysis of paradigms of innovations in the education system conducted in the article allowed us to recognize that scientific and technological progress in the XX–XXI centuries not only led to the technologicalization of numerous industries. He also touched upon the sphere of culture, humanitarian branches of knowledge, in which the general idea is a humanistic worldview, which implies a rejection of authoritarian style of thinking, tolerance, compromise, respect for other people's opinions, other cultures, values and beliefs. At the heart of this process of technologicalization is the formation of a new methodology, the creation of innovative paradigms of teaching and education, the focus of which is the individual. Outstanding teachers of the twentieth century have left a valuable educational, theoretical and practical heritage, which continues to be relevant and needs deep knowledge and use in the modern pedagogical space. Assimilation of educational, scientific and pedagogical achievements accumulated by mankind over the centuries, allows to objectively assess the pedagogical phenomena of today and on this basis to formulate the conceptual foundations of modern innovative pedagogical technologies related to the interaction of science, art and human values.
