العوامل المجتمعية لعمل كبار السن دراسة ميدانية
Authors: حسين علي بروين , حميد حسن حمدية
Published: November 2021

يعد موضوع كبار السن من الموضوعات المهمة لانها تمثل شريحة اساسية في المجتمع ، والبحث في امورهم وأوضاعهم العامة ليس لأنهم فئة من افراد المجتمع من دون باقي الفئات ، بل ان افراد المجتمع في جميع الاعمار يتطلعون الى كبر السن بوصفها اخر محطة في العمر التي يصاحبها العديد من المشكلات الاجتماعية والاقتصادية والصحية والنفسية ، وهم بهذا العمر بحاجه الى الرعاية ، الا اننا في الواقع نجد منهم من يعمل وهو بهذه المرحلة العمرية ، وعليه فالهدف الرئيس من البحث الحالي هو التعرف على اهم الاسباب المؤدية لعمل كبار السن ، و تشخيص اهم المشكلات التي تواجههم وتمنعهم تحقيق حاجاتهم وتسليط الضوء على دور الرعاية الاجتماعية لكبار السن ، فضلا عن السعي الى لفت انظار الجهات المختصة والمؤسسات الحكومية و دور ايواء المؤسسي للتعرف على واقعهم الاجتماعي والصحي والنفسي لهذه الفئة المهمة في المجتمع ، ،  ولأجل التحقق من العوامل المجتمعية التي تساهم في عمل كبار السن فقد قامت الباحثتان باختيار عينة عشوائية بسيطة قوامها (50) مبحوث من كبار السن العاملين في ( علوه جميلة)  وبمختلف الأعمار ولم نتمكن من اخذ عينة اكبر نظرا لخوف عدد كبير من كبار السن الذين يعملون من اصابتهم بوباء كورونا  ، ولقد تبنى البحث فرضيتين ، أعدت أستبانة لهذا الغرض بوصفها الأداة الأساسية في عملية جمع البيانات ، فضلا عن المقابلات التي أجريت مع المبحوثين ،  من خلال استخدام قانون كاي سكوير للوصول إلى طبيعة العلاقة الدالة بين المتغيرات وقد توصل البحث إلى وجود علاقة ذات دلالة احصائية بين عمل كبار السن وإعالة أسرهم بحسب النوع الاجتماعي  ، فضلا عن  توجد علاقة ذات دلالة إحصائية بين اسباب عمل كبار السن وحالتهم الاجتماعية.

أثر القرآن الكريم في الشعر العباسي
Authors: حازم محمد بشير أكرم
Published: November 2021

عنيت هذه الدراسة بالكشف عن أثر القرآن الكريم في الشعر العباسي، وقد تبين أن الشعر في العصر العباسي كان يمتاح من المعين القرآني، وأن الشعراء قد استلهموا المعاني والدلالات القرآنية في أشعارهم، وظهر الأثر القرآني في كافة أغراض الشعر العباسي، فقد استلهموا القيم القرآنية في شعر المدح، ووظفوا القيم السلبية في الهجاء، وبرزت أفكار: الصبر، والاحتساب، والدعاء بالفوز بالجنة ومصير الصالحين وغيرها من الأفكار القرآنية في الرثاء، كما تجلى الأثر القرآني في الغزل، على الرغم مما قد يبدو من صعوبة ظهور الأثر القرآني فيه، أما الزهد فقد تجلت فيه الحكم والإشارات القرآنية أكثر مما تجلت في غيره، وزهديات أبي العتاهية هي خير ما يمثل ذلك.

     وتجلى الأثر القرآني في التشكيل الفني للشعر العباسي أيضًا؛ فقد وظف الشعراء كثيرًا من ألفاظ المعجم القرآني في شعرهم، كما استلهموا معانيه في تشكيل صورهم وأخيلتهم الفنية؛ مما يعني أن الأثر القرآني قد تجلى في الشعر العباسي، سواء من الناحية الموضوعية أو من الناحية الفنية التشكيلية.

Authors: Kadum Sandra , Drandić Dijana , Lazarić Lorena
Published: November 2021

Cilj rada bio je ispitati stavove učitelja razredne nastave o spremnosti djece za školu s naglaskom na predčitalačke i predmatematičke vještine djece. U istraživanju su sudjelovala 362 ispitanika, učitelja razredne nastave iz osnovnih škola u Republici Hrvatskoj. Istražili smo i utvrdili da učitelji kao najvažnije izdvajaju vještine koje djeca trebaju steći prije polaska u školu: pravilno držanje olovke, odnosno pisaćeg pribora i čisto izgovaranje svih glasova kao predčitalačke vještine te prepoznavanje boja i razumijevanje prostornih odnosa (ispred, iza, gore, dolje, na, u, lijevo, desno) kao predmatematičke vještine. Nije utvrđena statistički značajna razlika u stavovima učitelja prema predčitalačkim vještinama u odnosu na godine radnog iskustva u nastavnoj djelatnosti, ali je utvrđena statistički značajna razlika između većine čestica predmatematičke vještine. U tom kontekstu, preporuke za buduća istraživanja odnose se na spremnost škola za djecu i spremnost obitelji i zajednica za školu te njihovu povezanost sa sociokulturnim kontekstom.

The ECB's neglected secondary mandate: An inter-institutional solution
Authors: de Boer Nik , Klooster Jens van't
Published: November 2021

The ECB’s secondary mandate requires it to the support broader economic policies by and in the EU. Until recently absent from the ECB strategy, the secondary mandate features prominently in the ECB’s 2021 review of its monetary policy strategy. This report asks: How should the ECB interpret the many objectives that the secondary mandate mentions? And how should it act on them? A more prominent role for its secondary mandate fits well with the new, more political role of the ECB, but it should not act on the secondary mandate alone. Why is that? The requirements that the legal text imposes on the ECB are paradoxical and difficult to reconcile. We explain the paradox in terms of three features. Firstly, the secondary mandate is binding on the ECB so that it must support the EU’s economic policies where this is possible without prejudice to price stability. However and secondly, the secondary mandate is also highly indeterminate because there are many relevant secondary objectives and ways to support them. Acting on the secondary mandate requires prioritising objectives and designing new instruments. Yet, thirdly, the ECB lacks the competence to develop its own policies to pursue the secondary objectives. For the ECB to simply choose its own secondary objectives and act on them raises severe legal and democratic objections. To resolve this paradoxical situation, we propose that the specification of the secondary objectives should take place via high-level coordination with the political institutions of the EU. Unlike direct instructions which are illegal under EU law, coordination would be compatible with central bank independence and strengthen the ECB’s ability to pursue price stability. We propose three main avenues to give shape to such interinstitutional coordination.

The Effect of Human Relations and Communication Lesson on Eloquent Speaking Skill
Authors: Ekiz Meryem Altun
Published: November 2021

In this study, the effect of human relations and communication lessons on eloquent speaking skills was examined by using the pretest-posttest control group model. 96 students studying at Hatay Mustafa Kemal University School of Physical Education and Sports participated in the research voluntarily in the spring semester of 2020-2021. The data were collected during the oral presentations made in the human relations and communication lesson with the Rating Scale to Assess Speaking Skills for Turkish Native Speakers developed by Bozkurt and Arıca-Akkök (2019). Descriptive statistics were used to determine the level of speaking skills of physical education teacher candidates before and after speaking practices, and their standard deviation and arithmetic mean scores were examined. Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test was applied to determine whether there was a significant difference in speaking skill scores before and after the lesson. According to the research findings; while the pretest averages of the experimental group students were lower than the control group, their posttest averages were higher than the control group. It was determined that there was a significant difference between the scores of the students participating in the study before and after the experiment from the speaking skills observation form, and when the mean rank and totals of the difference scores were taken into account, it was seen that this difference was in favor of the positive ranks, that is, the posttest score. It was determined that there was no significant difference between the pre-test and post-test scores obtained from the speaking skills observation form of the students participating in the study in the control group.

With the return of students to U.S. colleges and universities this September, more than 1,000 institutions of higher education have implemented COVID-19 vaccine mandates to keep COVID-19 cases low. The majority of students have complied with these mandates, and according to our recent survey data, nearly three-fourths of university students report having received at least one COVID-19 vaccine (Figure 1). Also according to our data, university students in the U.S. are getting vaccinated at around the same rate as the full survey sample. University students therefore may have slightly higher vaccination rates than others in their age group; according to our survey data, 67% of Americans aged 18-24 have received at least one vaccine.However, the contentiousness of COVID-19 vaccine mandates on university campuses echoes the broader societal divide on this issue. Many campuses have struggled with COVID-19 vaccine policy implementation and exemption requests, with some students even withdrawing in protest of the vaccine mandates.Given this trend, we take a closer look at university mandates on college campuses, including whether students can accurately say whether their institutions have COVID-19 vaccine policies.1 We also examine college students’ attitudes toward mandates on campus and in general, as well as student approval of their university administration’s handling of COVID-19 vaccination.

Full-Duplex Massive MIMO Cellular Networks with Low Resolution ADC/DAC
Authors: Balti Elyes
Published: November 2021

In this paper, we provide an analytical framework for full-duplex (FD) massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) cellular networks with low resolution analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters (ADCs and DACs). Matched filters are employed at the FD base stations (BSs) at the transmit and receive sides. For both reverse and forward links, we derive the expressions of the signal-to-quantization-plus-interference-and-noise ratio (SQINR) for general and special cases. We further evaluate the outage probability and spectral efficiency for reverse and forward links, and quantify the effects of the quantization error, loopback self-interference and inter-user interference for cells arranged in a hexagonal lattice and Poisson Point Process (PPP) tessellations. Finally, we derive analytical expressions for spectral efficiency for asymptotic cases as well as for power scaling laws.

Background: There is substantial variation in patient symptoms following psychological therapy for depression and anxiety. However, reliance on endpoint outcomes ignores additional interindividual variation during therapy. Knowing a patient’s likely symptom trajectories could guide clinical decisions.Aim: Identify latent classes of patients with similar symptom trajectories over the course of psychological therapy and explore associations between baseline variables and trajectory class. Method: Patients received high-intensity psychological treatment for depression or anxiety at NHS Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) services in South London (N = 16,258). To identify trajectories, we performed growth mixture modelling of depression and anxiety symptoms over 11 sessions. We then ran multinomial regressions to identify baseline variables associated with trajectory class membership.Results: Trajectories of depression and anxiety symptoms were highly similar and best modelled by four classes. Three classes started with moderate-severe symptoms and showed (1) minimal change, (2) gradual improvement, and (3) fast improvement. A final class (4) started with mild symptoms and demonstrated small improvement. Within the trajectory classes with moderate-severe baseline symptoms, patients in the two classes showing improvement as opposed to minimal change tended not to be prescribed psychotropic medication or report a disability and were in employment. Those showing fast improvement additionally reported lower baseline functional impairment on average. Conclusion: Multiple trajectory classes of depression and anxiety symptoms were associated with baseline characteristics. Identifying the most likely trajectory for a patient at the start of treatment could inform decisions about the suitability and continuation of therapy, ultimately improving patient outcomes.
Response-independent outcome presentations weakens the instrumental response-outcome association
Authors: Crimmins Byron , McNulty Molly , Laurent Vincent , Hart Genevra , Balleine Bernard
Published: November 2021

The present paper explored the fate of previously formed response-outcome associations when the relation between R and O was disrupted by arranging for O to occur independently of R. In each of three experiments response independent outcome delivery selectively reduced the R earning that O. Nevertheless, in Experiments 1 and 2, the R continued to show sensitivity to outcome devaluation, suggesting that the strength of the R-O association was undiminished by this treatment. These experiments used a two-lever, two-outcome design introducing the possibility that devaluation reflected the influence of specific Pavlovian lever-outcome associations. In an attempt to nullify these incidental Pavlovian cues, Experiment 3 used a single bidirectional vertical lever that rats could press left or right for different outcomes. Again, response-independent outcome presentation selectively depressed the performance of the R that delivered the response-independent O. However, in this situation, the response independent O also reduced the sensitivity of R to outcome devaluation; whereas the non-degraded R was sensitive to devaluation, the degraded R was not. We conclude that selective degradation of the instrumental contingency can weaken a specific R-O association while leaving other R-O associations intact. Furthermore, the use of a bidirectional vertical lever in Experiment 3 revealed that instrumental manipulanda, such as levers or chains, produce Pavlovian cues capable of forming incidental associations with the instrumental outcome, obscuring the relative influence of R-O associations after various manipulations.
Ο νους ως μηχανή: Θεωρία, νευροαπεικόνιση και φαινομενολογία στη γνωσιακή επιστήμη
Authors: Protopapas Athanassios
Published: November 2021

Η γνωσιακή επιστήμη είναι επιστημονικός κλάδος μελέτης φυσικών φαινομένων στο νοητικό επίπεδο περιγραφής. Στην ιεραρχία των φυσικών επιστημών εφάπτεται με τις νευροεπιστήμες, με τις οποίες βρίσκεται σε σχέση αναγωγής, διατηρώντας την επεξηγηματική αυτονομία της. Αφετηρία και θεμέλιο της γνωσιακής επιστήμης αποτελεί η υπόθεση εργασίας ότι «ο νους είναι μηχανή», στο πλαίσιο του υλιστικού μονισμού, ταυτίζοντας το νου με την αιτιοκρατική λειτουργία του εγκεφάλου ή κάποια όψη ή περιγραφή αυτής. Το είδος της μηχανής επεξεργασίας πληροφοριών που περιγράφει βέλτιστα τα νοητικά φαινόμενα είναι προς το παρόν άγνωστο, καθώς εξετάζονται διάφορες εναλλακτικές προτάσεις. Η κύρια πηγή εμπειρικών παρατηρήσεων για το νοητικό επίπεδο αποτελείται από παρεχόμενα αισθητηριακά ερεθίσματα και καταγραφόμενες απλές συμπεριφορικές αποκρίσεις. Επιπλέον, τα νευροαπεικονιστικά δεδομένα στηρίζουν τη θεμελίωση των νοητικών φαινομένων στη βιολογία και αποτελούν πρόσθετες εξαρτημένες μεταβλητές για τον έλεγχο θεωριών νοητικού επιπέδου. Όμως, η περιγραφή του νου δεν μπορεί να είναι πλήρης αν δεν συμπεριλαμβάνει και την υποκειμενικότητα. Τα δεδομένα «πρώτου προσώπου» αποτελούν και αυτά στοιχεία προς εξήγηση, καθώς το ιστορικό υπόδειγμα της ψυχοφυσικής και οι πιο σύγχρονες φαινομενολογικές προσεγγίσεις υποδεικνύουν τρόπους ενσωμάτωσής τους στο ερευνητικό πρόγραμμα. Η ενιαία θεώρηση των νοητικών φαινομένων είναι προϋπόθεση κατανόησής τους και απαιτεί την ενσωμάτωση υποκειμενικών, συγκινησιακών, βουλητικών, αισθητικών, ηθικών, κοινωνικών και δοξαστικών όψεων της νόησης σε ένα κοινό πλαίσιο περιγραφής και μελέτης.

CONFIDENTIALITY CLAUSES IN INVESTOR-STATE CONTRACTS FOR THE PROTECTION OF TRADE SECRETS AFTER PROMULGATION OF THE INDONESIAN ACT ON PUBLIC INFORMATION DISCLOSURE
Authors: Sanusi Bintang  , Mujibussalim Mujibussalim , Mahfud Mahfud , Fikri Fikri
Published: November 2021

A confidentiality clause is a clause in investor-state contracts which is in the operative part of the contract to guarantee adequate protection of the trade secrets of the contracting parties. This article argues that there is a need to change the current practice where investor-state contracts in Indonesia utilizes broadly defined confidentiality clauses as a means to protect trade secrets in international business transactions. This is because a broadly defined confidentiality clause is contradictory to the provisions of the Act on Public Information Disclosure (APID). APID is aimed mainly at providing public information disclosure. The public information includes public contracts, such as investor-state contracts. Therefore, a new model of the confidentiality clause is needed for the protection of trade secrets as intended by the Act on Trade Secrets (ATS) and contract law as well as public information disclosure as intended by APID. This article employs doctrinal legal research. The research utilized, primary, secondary, and tertiary legal authorities. The primary legal material intensively used in this article consists of mandatory-primary legal authorities, in the form of statutes and contracts. The contracts used are the investor-state contracts of Aceh Province, Indonesia. The finding shows that a new model of the confidentiality clause can be created by accommodating both the interest of the state for providing public information disclosure based on APID and the interest of investors for the protection of trade secrets based on ATS and contract law. Investor-state contracts are a specific type of contract which has specific characteristics that apply to both private law and public law. They are different from purely international commercial contracts which only apply private law. Investor-state contract drafters need to be aware of this difference and provide a more balanced confidentiality clause in the contracts.
The effect of nanoparticles, multicomponent trace element preperation “Avatar-2 protection”, and microbial preparation “Azogran” on the productivity potato cultivar Suvenir Chernihivskyi in Polesia region conditions
Authors:   Institute of Agricultural Microbiology and agro-industrial production of NAAS, Vasylchenko A. V.
Published: November 2021

Improvement of conventional methods of potato growing is an important task of modern agriculture. Nowadays nanoparticles (NPs) gain increasing attention of scientists as promising tools for increasing productivity of crop cultures. NPs of such elements as Fe, Zn, B, Si, Cu, Co, Se and Ag can significantly increase potato productivity. Ag NPs show synergic effect with some microbial preparations. However, the influence of such elements as Zn and Se on the productivity of potato and joint application of NPs with microbial preparations for pre-sowing treatment are not studied sufficiently. The influence of Ti and I NPs on potato productivity, the influence of NPs on Ukrainian potato cultivars, the influence of NPs on the potato productivity in Polesia region conditions are not studied yet. The aim of the study was to investigate the influence of pre-sowing treatment of seed potatoes with Zn nanoparticles (NPs), Ti NPs, composition of Se + I NPs, composition of Zn + Ti + Se + I NPs NPs, “Avatar-2 protection” multicomponent trace element preparation, “Azogran” microbial preparation “Azogran” and the combination of “Azogran” preparation with the composition of Se + I NPs on the productivity of potato cultivar Suvenir chernihivskyi in the Polesia region conditions. Two small plot studies were planted for three years in order to conduct the study. Each small plot study had been performed on different soil types: soddy podzolic soil and alkaline chernozem. Studies were situated on the lands of the Institute of Agricultural Microbiology and Agro-industrial Production of National Academy of Agrarian Sciences of Ukraine. It has been found that the composition of Se + I NPs, “Azogran” microbial preparation and the combination “Azogran” preparation with the composition of Se + I NPs had the most prominent influence on the potato productivity, increasing it on soddy podzolic soil by 33.13; 38.34 and 45.35 % respectively and on alkaline chernozem by 10.97; 17.98 and 37.27 % respectively. The composition of Se + I NPs and “Azogran” preparation are shown to develop synergic effect. The results of the study suggest high efficiency of the use of nanoparticles in potato growing.

One of the ways to reduce protein deficiency and produce complete feed is to grow alfalfa-cereal mixtures, which due to the optimal ratio of protein and carbohydrates, mineral salts and other valuable biologically active substances most fully meet the physiological needs of animals. The aim of the study was to determine the effect of mineral fertilizers on the nutritional value of alfalfa-cereal grass mixtures. Experimental studies were conducted during 2014-2016 on the research field of the Department of Forage Production, Land Reclamation and Meteorology, which is located in the NULES of Ukraine "Agronomic Research Station" on typical low-humus chernozem. According to the results of research, it was found that the inclusion of alfalfa in cereals increased the content of crude protein to a greater extent than the introduction of nitrogen in the dose N60 on the same cereal herbage at the same background P60K90. There are no natural differences in the accumulation of crude protein between alfalfa-cereal herbages with the participation of different cereal components on the same background. According to the results of research, the introduction of alfalfa into cereal herbage promotes the growth of protein and crude fat content in the feed and reduces the content of nitrogen-free extractive. Nitrogen fertilizers have the greatest effect on the chemical composition of grass feed on cereal grasslands - the application of N60 on the background of P60K90 in the dry weight of feed increases by 2.8% crude protein content and 26 g of feed unit digestible protein. Digestibility of dry matter of fodder of alfalfa and legume-cereal herbages, relative to pure cereal crops, increased by 2-5%. The composition of cereal components in legume-cereal mixtures and the fertilizer system did not significantly affect the digestibility of feed.

Numerous studies by Ukrainian and foreign scientists have shown that one of the limiting factors for obtaining a stable yield of any crop is the reserves of available moisture in the soil, especially in critical periods of plant growth. The article presents the results of research on the impact of three farming systems – industrial (control), ecological and biological and four options for primary soil tillage – plowing by 20–22 cm (control), chiseling by 20–22 cm, disking by 10–12 cm, disking for 6–8 cm on the reserves of productive moisture in the soil for growing spring durum wheat. According to research, it is established that the highest moisture reserves in a meter of soil for the period of sowing wheat was obtained by combining the biological farming system and chisel tillage, which allowed to accumulate in 2018 – 199.1 mm, 2019 – 179.6 and 2020 – 159.9 mm of available moisture in the soil. The use of chisel tillage in combination with industrial and organic farming systems also provides an advantage in all years of observations over plowing combinations and both disking options with these systems. During the growing season, against the background of all studied agricultural systems, use of chiseling and disking provided the highest reserves of available moisture in the soil. However, the best option should be considered a combination of ecological farming system with chiseling by 20–22 cm, which provided for the flowering period in 2018 – 74.0 mm of moisture, 2019 – 93.7 and 2020 – 90.9 mm, and for the harvest period culture, these indicators were, respectively, 61.0, 67.7 and 61.6 mm. The grain yield of spring durum wheat in this variant was significantly the highest in the experiment and was, respectively, 4.6, 6.7 and 5.6 t/ha.

Context Elevated lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] levels is an often-ignored risk factor for major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) in humans. Even after accounting for established risk factors (discussed in the text), some residual risk can still be independently attributed to elevated Lp(a) levels. Current guidelines dictating normal and elevated Lp(a) levels and subsequent treatment have proven haphazard due to unstandardized studies. Many studies offer cutoff values in units mg/dL, which do not account for the heterogeneity of Lp(a). Interpretation of elevated Lp(a) necessitates consideration of ethnicity necessary for proper predictions. Numerous studies detail the effects of elevated Lp(a) in relation to myocardial infarction, aortic valve stenosis, and atherosclerosis, among other conditions. This article aims to clarify the numerous cutoffs and guidelines presented. Methods Searches were primarily conducted through Google, PubMed.gov, and cochrane.org. Results Elevated Lp(a) seems to correlate with the incidence of MACEs and should be considered when assessing risk. Specific cutoff values remain quite unclear. Conclusions We urge for further detailed investigation on the effects of elevated Lp(a) on cardiac outcomes with the use of isoform independent assays. Particular attention should be given to ethnicity when assigning risk cutoffs for cardiac conditions. Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK-9) inhibitors can lower Lp(a) levels significantly and should be investigated.

The extrinsic compression of the left main coronary artery secondary to pulmonary artery trunk dilatation is a relatively rare syndrome. [1,2] It is mostly associated with congenital acyanotic heart disease, idiopathic pulmonary arterial dilatation or primary pulmonary hypertension. [3,4] Most cases of pulmonary artery hypertension with no atherosclerotic risk factors rarely undergo coronary angiography, and hence, diagnoses are seldom made and proper management is delayed.We describe a patient with Ostium secundum atrial septal defect with severe pulmonary hypertension who presented with clinical angina ,diagnosed to have left main coronary artery compression by CT angiography ,underwent successful percutaneous coronary intervention with good symptomatic relief.
Re-Print- COVID-19 Cardiac Complications: Is an Easy, Safe treatment Strategy Right under Our Noses?
Authors: L Murray Gary
Published: November 2021

Background: Many chronic conditions, as Diabetes Mellitus (DM) and cardiovascular Diseases, suffer Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE): congestive heart failure (CHF), Ventricular Tachycardia (VT), Ventricular Fibrillation (VF), Acute Coronary Syndromes [ACSs], and Sudden Cardiac Death (SCD). Acute infections, like COVID-19, also involve oxidative stress, leading to increased Sympathetic tone (S) and decreased Parasympathetic tone (P), increasing Sympathovagal Balance (SB) and MACE. The antioxidant (r) Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) improves SB. The antianginal Ranolazine (RAN), also an antioxidant, is an antiarrhythmic. Our studies of their effects on MACE, in DM, and non-DM patients with CHF, ventricular arrhythmias and SCD are reviewed herein, as our findings may apply to acute diseases, such as COVID-19. Methods: (1) In a case-control study, 109 CHF patients, 54 were given adjunctive off-label RAN added to ACC/AHA Guideline therapy (RANCHF). MACE and SB were compared with 55 NORANCHF patients; mean f/u 23.7 mo. (2) 59 adults with triggered premature ventricular contractions (PVCs), bigeminy, and VT were given off-label RAN. Pre- and post-RAN Holters were compared; mean f/u 3.1 mo. (3) 133 DM II with cardiac diabetic autonomic neuropathy were offered (r) ALA; 83 accepted; 50 refused. P&S were followed a mean of 6.31 years, and SCDs recorded. Results: (1) 70% of RANCHF patients increased LVEF 11.3 EFUs (p ≤ 0.003), SCD reduced 56%; VT/VF therapies decreased 53%. (2) 95% of patients responded: VT decreased 91% (p<0.001). (3) SCD was reduced 43% in DM II patients taking (r) ALA (p=0.0076). Conclusion: RAN, (r) ALA treat CHF, VT, and prevent SCD. Trials in COVID-19 are needed.
Myocardial infarction in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease (MINOCA): A Challenge to Diagnose and Manage
Authors: D Kondapaneni Meera , Jabri Ahmad , Siraj Aisha , Karim Saima
Published: November 2021

Myocardial Infarction in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease [MINOCA] is seen in 5-6% of the patients presenting with myocardial infarction. While patients with MINOCA can present with either ST segment elevation or non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction, they are less likely to have ST segment deviation on electrocardiography and have less of cardiac biomarker elevation compared to their obstructive coronary artery disease counterparts. Patients with MINOCA are usually younger and with lower prevalence of traditional cardiovascular risk factors compared with patients presenting with obstructive coronary artery disease. A variety of atherosclerotic and non-atherosclerotic mechanisms can lead to MINOCA. A diagnosis of MINOCA can only be made in patients whose clinical presentation is attributed to an ischemic event after excluding obstructive coronary artery disease and alternate causes for troponin elevation. A systematic approach to diagnosing the underlying causes is warranted to optimally treat patients presenting with MINOCA.

Coronary artery anomalies (CAAs) are very rare a relatively uncommon, diverse group of congenital disorders of coronary arterial anatomy with a clinical presentations. Though most commonly detected incidentally finding during routine catheter, CT angiograms or at autopsy, these anomalies have generated considerable interest as they constitute the second most common cause of sudden cardiac death in young competitive athletes after hypertrophic cardiomyopathy1. Their prevalence ranges from 0.2% to 1.3% based published series 2-4. The most common coronary artery anomaly is origination of the left circumflex coronary (LCX) artery from the proximal of right coronary artery (RCA) or right sinus of Valsalva. The second is separate origination of the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) and LCX artery from the left sinus of Valsalva. Herein, we present five cases that the anomalous RCA arises from the left main coronary artery or the mid of left left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD). These cases are extremely rare. we bring forth them in an attempt to highlight their significance, and make cardiologist to understand what important the anomalies are, and how to diagnosis and treatment these bifurcation lesions of coronary anomalies.

Trigger finger is the second cause of consultation with the hand surgeon. In 2009, Kerrigan published a strategy for the treatment of this pathology, which consists of two infiltrations with corticosteroids in the sheath of the flexor tendons at the level of the A1 pulley, followed by percutaneous or open surgical release, following the algorithm described by the author. 140 files that met the inclusion criteria were analyzed. It was found that the female gender is the most frequently affected during the sixth decade of life in 46%. The most frequently affected finger is the third, affects the right hand in 44% and both hands in 29%. 91% of the patients received a first infiltration and only 31% of these received a second infiltration. The surgical procedure was decided in 33% of the patients. The longest follow-up was 180 months and the shortest was 3 months with 100% of asymptomatic patients. The algorithm proposed by Kerrigan in the treatment of this pathology is a good strategy that has a high success rate without having to perform a surgical procedure as the first treatment option.
Intellectual Corruption in Modern Science: A Case Study
Authors: F. Welles James
Published: November 2021

A reviewer of a book I wrote claimed an idea presented therein could be found elsewhere. Nine years later, no one could say where, but no one would correct the erroneous claim, so what be-gan as an effort to obtain a redress of a legitimate grievance slowly degenerated into a tour d’farce of a surreal ethics warp in our intellectual community. The citations submitted to docu-ment the claim failed to do so, and the file on the dispute maintained by the American Psychological Association (APA) really is not about my case at all. The University of Connecticut (UConn) and the American Association for the Advancement of Sci-ence (AAAS) failed to hold anyone accountable. There was a basic conflict between the conduct of officials of all these organiza-tions and their ethical codes. In a culture of intellectual cor-ruption, behavior consisted of a pervasive and extended cover-up characterized by sophistry, secrecy, fantasy, irrelevance, ra-tionalization, misattribution, misrepresentation, fabrication, falsification, failure to communicate and an adamant refusal to deal logically and fairly with the facts of the case. This demon-strated a complete lack of cognitive integrity and constituted a total betrayal of the academic/scientific commitment to truth.

Published: November 2021

Transient global amnesia (TGA) is an unusual neurological syndrome of unknown etiology that affects individuals between 50 and 75 years old. We describe the case of a 61-year-old woman, who experienced an episode of two hours of anterograde amnesia. The event had an acute onset and was observed by a reliable witness. It lacked motor or sensory symptoms, compromised consciousness, or personal identity. A brain magnetic resonance was performed 22 hours after the onset of symptoms depicting foci of restricted diffusion in both hippocampi. Taking into account clinical and imaging findings, the diagnosis of transient global amnesia was made.

Published: November 2021

ALCAPA syndrome was characterized by anomalous origin of left coronary artery from pulmonary artery. Its clinical presentation is varied and although it is an anomaly of congenital origin, it is not exclusive to pediatric ages. Its epidemiological documentation is difficult. We aimed to make the non-invasive diagnosis of the ALCAPA syndrome and its variants. An observational, prospective and cross-sectional study was conducted with 31 patients with a positive echocardiographic diagnosis of ALCAPA syndrome at Pediatric Cardio Center “William Soler” from 2005 to 2018. The variables with significance for diagnosis were the echocardiographic visualization of the anomalous connection and the reversed flow in the left coronary artery. The variables with significance for typing were age at diagnosis, ischemia in the electrocardiogram, echocardiographic visualization of left ventricle papillary muscles fibrosis, presence of severe mitral regurgitation, left ventricle spheroidal remodeling, left ventricle ejection fraction, left ventricular end-diastolic volume index, and left ventricular end-diastolic diameter index. An algorithm integrated by various diagnostic modalities associated with echocardiography as a tool for the detection of ALCAPA was developed. The documentation of the diagnostic and classificatory aspects of the syndrome is possible by detecting echocardiographic elements in conjunction with electrocardiographic and radiological aspects.
