The Female Athlete’s Heart: Overview and Management of Cardiovascular Diseases
Authors: Castelletti Silvia , Gati Sabiha
Published: December 2021

The number of female athletes taking part in elite and amateur sport is ever increasing. In contrast with male athletes, few studies have focused on cardiovascular adaptations to exercise in women, the effects of lifelong exercise on heart muscle and electrical tissue, the risk of exercise-related sudden cardiac death and the management of cardiovascular disease. Women have a lower prevalence of large QRS complexes, repolarisation changes including inferior and lateral T-wave inversion, and cardiac dimensions exceeding predicted limits compared with men. The risk of exercise-related sudden cardiac death is significantly lower in women than men. Also, women who have engaged in lifelong exercise do not have a higher prevalence of AF, coronary artery calcification or myocardial fibrosis than their sedentary counterparts. Apart from providing an overview of the existing literature relating to cardiac adaptations, this review explores possible reasons for the sex differences and focuses on the management of cardiovascular disorders that affect female athletes.
Palpitations in the Cancer Patient
Authors: Essa Hani , Lip Gregory YH
Published: December 2021

Cancer and cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are among the leading causes of death worldwide. In response to the growing population of cancer patients and survivors with CVD, the sub-specialty of cardio-oncology has been developed to better optimise their care. Palpitations are one of the most common presenting complaints seen in the emergency room or by the primary care provider or cardiologist. Palpitations are defined as a rapid pulsation or abnormally rapid or irregular beating of the heart and present a complex diagnostic entity with no evidence-based guidelines currently available. Palpitations are a frequent occurrence in people with cancer, and investigations and treatment are comparable to that in the general population although there are some nuances. Cancer patients are at a higher risk of arrhythmogenic causes of palpitations and
non-arrhythmogenic causes of palpitations. This review will appraise the literature with regards to the development and management of palpitations in the cancer patient.
Desde Guatemala a las Provincias Internas de Occidente. Diputaciones provinciales y haciendas públicas de los ayuntamientos constitucionales, 1820-1822
Authors: Serrano Ortega José Antonio
Published: December 2021

En este breve artículo me centro en las medidas fiscales que llevaron a cabo las diputaciones provinciales y los jefes políticos a fin de comenzar a contener la “revolución territorial de los pueblos”. La base de partida de este proceso fue el control de las haciendas públicas de los ayuntamientos constitucionales. Entre 1820 y 1822, comenzaron procesos que marcarán las historias de las transiciones políticas en las diferentes regiones de México y de Centroamérica durante la primera mitad del siglo XIX. En este proceso de cambio ocuparon un lugar fundamental los ayuntamientos constitucionales y las diputaciones provinciales que se establecieron desde Guatemala hasta las Provincias Internas de Occidente. En el artículo concluyo que los diputados forjaron alianzas con distintos grupos políticos que permitieron que estas instituciones de gobierno provinciales lograran ejercer un control político y administrativo sobre los ayuntamientos y las diputaciones provinciales.
The Implication of Cyberspace Towards State Geopolitics
Authors: Ramadhan Iqbal
Published: December 2021

Massive technological advancements have influenced many dynamics of the nation's social, political, and economic changes. Geopolitical studies, as one of the studies that investigate the interaction between political dynamics and geography, are exposed to the implications of these technological developments. At the outset of its development, geopolitical studies discussed the state's strategies and policies for gaining influence in specific areas. Geopolitics is the study of a country's boundaries. The emergence of cyberspace, along with the advancement of technology, has implications for a country's geopolitical development. Geopolitical competition takes place not only in the physical realm, but also in cyberspace. The purpose of this article is to examine the shift in the geopolitical paradigm from physical to cyberspace. The authors examine how the existence of cyberspace can have a political impact, particularly geopolitical rivalries between countries, using geopolitics and cyberspace concepts. This scientific article investigates cyberspace phenomena and geopolitical studies using qualitative methods, particularly case study writing techniques. The author contends that geopolitics in cyberspace has no borders, based on the findings of this article's analysis. To avoid cyber conflicts, states must make cyberspace their political domain. Geopolitical rivalries between states in cyberspace can have real-world consequences. One of them is the use of technology to suppress other states' geopolitical policies. Because cyberspace is infinite, the state must develop governance so that the potential for cyber conflicts does not have physical consequences for the country's geopolitics. Given that almost all dynamics of state life have been integrated into information technology, the author concludes that cyberspace should be considered one of a state's geopolitical areas.

Authors: Widodo Wahyu , Werijon Werijon , Setiawan Agung
Published: December 2021

During the COVID-19 pandemic, it is difficult to ignore the possibility of conflict in the Simultaneous Regional Head Elections; in fact, it tends to grow. Fundamentally, conflicts arise as a result of lack of planning and implementation of Electoral Management Bodies, confusing regulations, overlapping responsibilities and multiple interpretations of laws, and inability to deal with technical electoral issues. This study aims to examine the dynamics of holding the 2020 Simultaneous Regional Head Elections in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. This study employs a qualitative design with a descriptive approach. Data collection was carried out using literature review techniques from several related journal sources. According to the results of the study with the Concept of Conflict Resolution, the potential conflicts that emerged in the 2020 simultaneous regional elections, including the existence of money politics disguised as assistance for overcoming COVID-19, low voter participation due to public fear of the transmission of the COVID-19 virus, and weak technical elections management which resulted in the need for re-voting in several regions in Indonesia. Therefore, it can be conluded that Conflict resolution to eliminate money politics culture can be done by conducting political education which must be started from political parties. Meanwhile, to minimize re-voting, Electoral Management Bodies must prepare overall technical management well from planning, organizing, implementing to evaluating the entire process of organizing the election.
Political Motives for the Plan for the Expansion of New Autonomous Regions in Papua
Authors: Muksin Dafrin , Robo Sahrail , Pawane Ahmad Rizali
Published: December 2021

This study examines the political motives of the plan to expand the new autonomous region in Papua. This is because the expansion of new autonomous areas is not always purely for the welfare of the people but is very closely related to political interests, namely power, and position. This study used qualitative research methods. The data used in the form of secondary data was obtained through reputable media and documents in journals. Next, the data is sorted to form a systematic framework. To analyze the research data, Nvivo plus 12 was used. From the analysis, it was described, and a conclusion was drawn. The study results indicate that the political motives for the plan to expand the new autonomous region in Papua are very material-intensive, namely the interests of the political elite, both central and local, to obtain rewards, position, and power. There is a narrative in the ideological incentive motive that regional expansion is for the public interest, namely providing services, developing infrastructure, increasing human resources, and alleviating poverty. However, in reality, some of the ongoing divisions in Papua have not yet impacted the Papuan people.
Retaining Information and Knowledge in Human Memory in Mishnahic and Talmudic Periods
Authors: Shemesh Abraham Ofir
Published: December 2021

The current study explores Mishnahic and Talmudic literature as its basis for a discussion of the meaning of memory, its significance, and ways of maintaining it among individuals. Until the redaction of the Mishna and revoking the religious prohibition against writing down oral traditions, knowledge relied mainly on human memory and it was preserved among select scholars or by elders with good memory. In Mishnahic and Talmudic periods the need to preserve the considerable information that had accumulated in the batei midrash increased, as did the concern that the Torah would be forgotten due to historical circumstances that had a destructive effect on the scholars in batei midrash. The response to these concerns required embracing and developing methods, practices, and food recipes to help increase memory and prevent or slow down memory loss. Among the methods for maintaining memory were: Frequent revision and reviewing of study material; choosing an adequate learning environment and atmosphere; remembering ideas by associative techniques (to colours, daily activities); use of mnemonics (acronyms, signs, associations, fingers and numbers), and eating food or smelling aromatic substances for improving memory.

From Budapest to Montreal
Authors: Grossman Simone
Published: December 2021

Shoshanna’s Story: A Mother, a Daughter and the Shadows of History, is Elaine Kalman Naves’ autobiobiographical novel, told from the point of view of a child. It tells the story of her mother Shoshanna, a survivor of the camps, and recounts Naves’ childhood in Budapest in the aftermath of war and the arrival of the family in Montreal in 1959. An intergenerational link is made through events unfolding between cities, eras, and languages. The narrative interweaves past and present, Europe, and the New World, the dead, and the living. The birth of the girl, Naves, born after the war arouses joy mixed with sadness. The baby is dressed in clothes that belonged to murdered children. Like the layers of strudel dough made by Shoshanna, and the swaddles enveloping the little girl’s buttocks, the generations overlap, dynamically metaphorizing the temporal and spatial layers and restoring their reality to the victims of history.

Language as contextual factor of an education system: Reading development as a necessity
Authors: Vos Elize , Fouché Nadine
Published: December 2021

Language is a contextual factor of an education system as it determines the Language of Learning and Teaching (LOLT). In order to provide for diversity in South Africa, the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, 1996, makes provision for 11 official languages and the Language in Education Policy (LiEP) promotes respect for not only these official languages, but languages in general as well as the preservation of cultural diversity by means of multilingualism. Having measures like these in place creates the assumption that different languages are used as LOLT. However, mother tongue education is not fully realised in South Africa. A large percentage of learners’ LOLT is not their home language. This lack of mother tongue education may cause poor reading ability. South Africa’s government and Department of Education (DoE) has certain strategies available to promote reading, however, the feasibility of these strategies is questionable when the poor reading performance of South African learners is taken into account. To find a solution for the above-stated problem, due to the fact that reading plays an important role within an education system, and the integral part it forms in nation-building, we conducted a literature study to identify current national and international reading strategies. In this article we present a synthesis of these strategies, which we refer to as a reading motivation framework, outlining the responsibilities of various social role players.
Why do teachers code-switch when teaching English as a second language?
Authors: Shinga Sibongile , Pillay Ansurie
Published: December 2021

In post-apartheid South Africa, 11 languages, including English and indigenous languages, were given equal status as official languages. Yet, more than 25 years after democracy, Black parents still believe that their children’s wealth and success depend on English, and therefore, send them to English-medium schools where they take English as a second language (ESL), known in South Africa as English First Additional Language (FAL). Many circumstances compel teachers to code-switch between English and learners’ first language. In the study reported on here we explored the reasons behind teachers’ code-switching in FAL classrooms in 4 rural high schools in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Concept maps, open-ended questionnaires and open-ended telephone interviews were used to generate data. Findings indicate that FAL teachers use code-switching to clarify difficult concepts, enhance understanding of the content presented, and keep learners engaged during lessons. We argue that the use of learners’ first language may be crucial in the teaching and learning of a second language.
Promoting multilingualism: Foundation Phase teachers’ experiences in teaching isiXhosa to native speakers of Afrikaans
Authors: de Klerk Edwin Darrell , Palmer June Monica , Papashane Maseeeng
Published: December 2021

After 1994, South African policy changes brought about variations in language education resulting in many monolingual classrooms becoming multilingual. Much of the current literature focuses on either providing recommendations to diverse approaches of teaching a second language or describing the experiences of second language learners while limited studies unearthed teachers’ experiences in multilingual classrooms, especially where the language of learning and teaching (LoLT) was Afrikaans. In this article we examine responses of teachers in the Northern Cape to teaching isiXhosa to learners whose mother-tongue is Afrikaans. From an interpretivist lens and using a case study design, we present 6 Afrikaans Foundation Phase teachers’ (FPTs) experiences in teaching isiXhosa as a second First Additional Language (FAL) to non-isiXhosa speakers. Data from in-depth email interviews were coded and thematically analysed. The results from this study show that, while teachers regard multilingualism as fundamental, they equally regard the isiXhosa curriculum as a tool to develop learners’ language proficiency.

Good training data is a prerequisite to develop useful Machine Learning applications. However, in many domains existing data sets cannot be shared due to privacy regulations (e.g., from medical studies). This work investigates a simple yet unconventional approach for anonymized data synthesis to enable third parties to benefit from such anonymized data. We explore the feasibility of learning implicitly from visually unrealistic, task-relevant stimuli, which are synthesized by exciting the neurons of a trained deep neural network. As such, neuronal excitation can be used to generate synthetic stimuli. The stimuli data is used to train new classification models. Furthermore, we extend this framework to inhibit representations that are associated with specific individuals. We use sleep monitoring data from both an open and a large closed clinical study, and Electroencephalogram sleep stage classification data, to evaluate whether (1) end-users can create and successfully use customized classification models, and (2) the identity of participants in the study is protected. Extensive comparative empirical investigation shows that different algorithms trained on the stimuli are able to generalize successfully on the same task as the original model. Architectural and algorithmic similarity between new and original models play an important role in performance. For similar architectures, the performance is close to that of using the original data (e.g., Accuracy difference of 0.56%-3.82%, Kappa coefficient difference of 0.02-0.08). Further experiments show that the stimuli can provide state-ofthe-art resilience against adversarial association and membership inference attacks.
PERROT, PIRATES AND PARISIAN GROCERS: SIR JOHN PERROT, COURT FACTION, JURISDICTIONAL CONFLICT AND THE AFFAIR OF THE PETER AND PAUL
Authors: Turvey Roger
Published: December 2021

The Marseilles ship, the Peter and Paul, became the object of a bitter dispute that internationalized an incident involving the royal courts of England, France, Portugal and Spain. At the time it was something of a cause célèbre that preoccupied the court, Privy
Council and High Court of Admiralty. The significance of the ship's detention lies not so much in the incident itself but in the events surrounding it and the light it sheds on competing and conflicting jurisdictions involving the Westminster and Dublin governments. It reveals much about the
bitter factionalism at the royal court which involved the Pembrokeshire magnate Sir John Perrot and Walter Devereux, earl of Essex.
IMAGINED WAR: SPY SCARES, FEARS OF INVASION AND AERIAL ATTACK IN PEMBROKESHIRE DURING THE FIRST WORLD WAR
Authors: Hancock Simon
Published: December 2021

Civilian perspectives of the First World War were a combination of lived experiences and fears. In Pembrokeshire, which was remote from the conflict and was not likely to be attacked, fears were fed by pre-war invasion literature, coupled with an awareness of invasions in the past.
Public unease and anxiety in the early months of the war manifested themselves in a belief in imaginary attacks, 'spy mania', stories and rumours. Zeppelin fears were stoked by press reports of attacks on London and the south-east of England. The U-boat campaign off the Pembrokeshire coast
from March 1915 was a reminder of the proximity of danger and juxtaposed real with imaginary fears.

Background: The left ventricle is longer and narrower than the right ventricle, extending from its base in the plane of the atrioventricular groove to the cardiac apex. The wall of the left ventricle is three times thicker (8-12 mm) than those of right ventricle. The wall of the right ventricle is relatively thin (3–5 mm), the ratio of the thickness of the two ventricular walls usually being 1:3. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is characterized by myocardial wall thickening, particularly a disproportionate thickening of the interventricular septum in comparison with the posterior wall. An athlete’s heart may physiologically hypertrophy but in a uniform fashion. The objective of the study is to determine the thickness of wall of right and left ventricle of adult human heart and ratio of thickness of right and left ventricle. Materials and Methods: Adult human hearts were procured from the specimens preserved in Anatomy Department of Jawaharlal Nehru Institute of Medical Sciences. A cross-sectional study was conducted on forty- four specimen of adult heart. The measurement of the right and left ventricular wall was done with digital vernier caliper. The measurements were done at three levels in both right and left ventricle: upper, middle and lower part. Result and Conclusion: The ratio of the thickness of the wall of right and left ventricle is well known as 1:3. However, in our study we found the ratio as 1:1.4. We found the thickness of the right ventricle thicker than the normal thickness reported in previous studies. We wish to continue the study with a larger sample size. KEY WORDS: Heart, Right ventricle, left ventricle, Thickness Ratio, Myocardium.

Osteology is a fundamental discipline, its classical teaching becomes difficult because of plethora of students and shortage of bony parts. It’s in this context that we have made, from 3D volume imaging, a modeling of the rib cage as a test using a software for post-treatment of CT images in order to propose a pedagogical tool for studying thorax’s skeletal and adding descriptions with the help of classical works. This was a prospective study involving 27 patients aged between 35 and 45 years. The scanners used were HITACHI ECLOS 16 cuts. Once the CT scan was selected, the DICOM data was transmitted to the post-processing console. The images were processed on the console "Aquarius Intuition Edition Version 4. 4. 7. 855113", for one patient we used Veiwer Osirix 10.6.8 Mac. All bones have been dynamically described thanks to the volume rendering. We thus obtained volumetric reconstructions of three-dimensional CT images of the different bone structures superimposed on those taught in classical anatomy practical work. We obtained a scenario of practical work in the form of a slide show that the teacher can use for works with or without model and even remotely. The virtual reality obtained with the 3D reconstructions of CT scans of the rib cage is a tool for self-learning of osteology for students but also a way for teachers to do practical work without having to use models, and even at a distance.

Background: In cervical vertebrae, the costal and transverse elements are connected to each other around the foramen transversarium of the transverse process. The adult cervical vertebrae are characterized by the presence of Foramen Transversarium (FT) in transverse process. These transverse foramina are found to have variations in size, shape and numbers and may be absent, incomplete or duplicate, which may lead to various symptoms. Aim: To study the anatomical variations of cervical vertebrae. Materials and methods: The present observational study was performed on 182 dry human cervical vertebrae of unknown sex and age. Intact cervical vertebrae without any degenerative or traumatic disorders were included in this study. Deformed and damaged vertebrae were excluded from the study Results: Out of these 364 foramen transversarium, 98 (27%) foramen transversarium were of type-I. Type -I was the most common presentation in the present study. Type -II foramen transversarium were seen in 33 (09%) foramen transversarium. Out of 364 foramen transversarium 88 (24%) foramen transversarium were of type-III. Type-IV foramen transversarium were seen in 62 (17%) foramen transversarium. Type-V foramen transversarium were seen on 83 (23%) foramen transversarium. Out of 182 vertebrae 40 (22%) showed complete double foramen transversarium. Incomplete double foramen transversarium were seen in 24 (13%) of vertebrae. One side complete & other side incomplete foramen transversarium were seen in 04 (02%) vertebrae. Conclusion: Knowledge of such variations is important for Physicians, Neurologists Otorhinolaryngologists, radiologists and Orthopedicians. Presence of accessory foramen transversarium especially of incomplete variety, the second part of vertebral artery may be dislodged and prone to get damaged easily during posterior cervical injuries. It helps in radiological imaging, neurological diagnosis and complex surgical procedures in the cervical area. KEY WORDS: Cervical Vertebrae, Foramen transversarium, Accessory Foramen Transversarium.

Zoom: A case study
Authors: Grima Tyrone
Published: December 2021

The paper 'Zoom: a case-study' explores the process of the staging of a hybrid performance that took place in September 2021 in Malta as a response to the Covid scenario. This production was watched online and live, with actors performing, using both realities.  The project also explores the notion of space, whether it is the virtual, as opposed to the 'real', and the different spatial dynamics that this performance occurred in. In fact, the performance happened in two 'real' spaces, connected one to the other through an intricate use of screens and cameras, in such a way that whichever way the audience decided to watch the performance in, they could still understand the narrative of the play. The paper is analysed by juxtaposing literature on hybridity against the experiences of the different stakeholders involved in this production, namely, the co-producers, the director (the researcher of this paper), the technical director, the actors and members of the audience, with the aim of analysing and evaluating the dynamics of the production as a model of good practice and discern whether it can provide a framework to work in for the restricted reality that the local industry is in currently, as well as for the future.

O crescimento construtivo, ocorrido no bairro Jabotiana, impulsionado principalmente pelos Programas Habitacionais, promoveu uma grande evolução urbana, degradação ambiental e prejuízo aos Espaços Livres. Durante a pesquisa realizou-se um estudo sobre esse processo de ocupação e as suas consequências ambientais, tendo como foco as temáticas - Espaços Livres e Drenagem Urbana. Para isso, o estudo utilizou-se de revisões bibliográficas e documentais, análises de imagens de satélite, visita a campo e aplicação de entrevista virtual, sendo as duas últimas fundamentais para a elaboração dos mapas temáticos. A pesquisa deteve-se a averiguar quatro tipologias de Espaços Livres: as Áreas de Proteção Permanente, as Praças, as Calçadas e os Espaços Coletivos Condominiais; analisando desde a distribuição até a situação dos mesmos na região, investigando inclusive como a população os veem. Dentro dessa análise, a percepção da população os caracterizou como locais sem muitos atrativos, por vezes deficientes de infraestrutura e/ou sinônimos de insegurança. Logo, são Espaços passíveis de melhorias a fim de atingir os seus objetivos de forma plena. Ressalta-se ainda que além de apresentarem excelente função social e ambiental, os Espaços Livres são instrumentos potenciais para a drenagem urbana, através de estratégias sustentáveis.

Published: December 2021

Los eventos naturales son procesos o fenómenos potencialmente perjudiciales que ocurren en la biosfera y pueden causar graves daños socioeconómicos a las comunidades expuestas. El escenario urbano actual en la capital de Mato Grosso, Cuiabá, revela la forma desordenada de apropiación de este espacio urbano, haciéndolo susceptible a las acciones de los eventos naturales, provocando pérdidas y perjudicando la vida cotidiana de la población. Para ello, el mapeo de áreas con riesgo de inundaciones, crecidas usando un sistema de información geográfica (SIG) es una herramienta importante en la prevención, control y gestión de eventos naturales. La aplicación de la herramienta permitió identificar áreas de alto riesgo de inundaciones y crecidas, mostrando que la técnica tiene un gran potencial para ser utilizada en el planeamiento urbano a través de la zonificación de estas áreas de riesgo.

Se trata de un estudio cuantitativo-cualitativo que utiliza el aspecto técnico y funcional de una Evaluación Post-Ocupación (POE), a través de visitas in situ, levantamientos físicos y ambientales y evaluación de los ambientes hospitalarios docentes. La aplicación del instrumento permitió identificar ambientes con alto, medio y bajo potencial de crecimiento de microorganismos. El resultado de la investigación permitió verificar que las características arquitectónicas asociadas a las condiciones ambientales pueden favorecer el crecimiento de microorganismos, a pesar de que la principal forma de transmisión es a través de la microbiota del paciente y comprender su dinámica es fundamental para ayudar al diseñador del entorno hospitalario. El instrumento tiene el potencial de evaluar e identificar ambientes favorables para el desarrollo de microorganismos, ayudando a planificar medidas de control, además de ser utilizado como una forma de prevenir interferencias arquitectónicas en la proliferación y crecimiento de microorganismos.
Anthropometric indices as predictors of 10-year cardiovascular risk among Sub-Sahara Africans with type 2 diabetes
Authors: Azeez TA
Published: December 2021

Background: Body mass index, waist circumference, waist-hip ratio and waist-height ratio are simple clinical tools for determining obesity. Type 2 diabetes mellitus is often associated with multiple cardiovascular risk factors and increased cardiovascular death. The study was aimed at determining the relationship between these anthropometric indices and 10-year cardiovascular risk among sub-saharan Africans with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods: It was a cross-sectional study involving 67 adults (with 50.7% females) managed for type 2 diabetes mellitus in a referral hospital in Nigeria. Ethical approval was obtained at the institution review board and the participants also gave written consent. Anthropometric indices were determined using standard protocols. Fasting lipid profile, fasting plasma glucose, glycated haemoglobin and plasma creatinine were assayed using standard laboratory techniques. Atherogenic index of plasma, estimated glomerular filtration rate and the WHO-ISH cardiovascular risk score were also determined. Data was analyzed with SPSS version 22. Pearson correlation coefficient, Students’ t test, Chi square test, ROC curve analysis were performed as appropriate. Results: The mean age was 54.12±9.03 years. Obesity was found in 37.3%, 66.5%, 70.1% and 95.5% of the participants using BMI, WHR, WC and WHtR respectively. Intermediate/high cardiovascular risk was found in 38.2% and 24.2% of the males and females respectively. BMI and WC significantly correlated with blood pressure. There was no significant correlation between anthropometric indices and other cardiovascular risk factors studied. Using ROC curve analysis, BMI and WHtR had the highest AUC of 0.613 and 0.577 respectively. Conclusion: Among sub-sahara Africans with type 2 diabetes mellitus, there is a significant association between WC and BMI with the blood pressure. BMI and WHtR have the highest 10-year cardiovascular risk predictability among the anthropometric indices in this cohort of individuals. Larger and prospective studies are needed to validate these findings.
