YOSUA DAN PROVIDENSIA ALLAH
Authors: Latumahina Dina Elisabeth
Published: March 2020

Yosua lahir di Mesir dengan nama Hosea (keselamatan) tetapi kemudian Musa memanggilnya Yehosua (Tuhan adalah keselamatan/pertolongan, sama dengan arti Yesus dalam Yunani). Dia adalah orang Israel dari keturunan Isakhar. Dia ikut rombongan bangsa Israel yang dibawa keluar dari Mesir. Dan selama pengembaraan di padang gurun, dia menjadi abdi Musa/hamba Musa/pembantu Musa. Sebagai seorang pembantu, jelas dia banyak belajar mengenai kepemimpinan Musa dan bagaimana hubungan Musa dengan Allah dan providensia Allah bagi Musa sebagai seorang pemimpin tetapi juga providensia Allah bagi Israel. Yosua ps.1 :1 mengatakan bahwa setelah Musa tuannya mati, maka Allah mengalihkan estafet kepemimpinan kepada Yosua. Tugas Yosua tidak lebih mudah atau tidak lebih sulit dari Musa. Sama. Hanya situasi dan konteks sedikit berbeda. Musa mengeluarkan Israel dari Mesir dan Yosua membawa Israel masuk tanah perjanjian. Tanah yang dijanjikan Tuhan kepada mereka.

What best practices of Climate Smart Agriculture (CSA) for vegetable crops production in West Africa?
Authors: ESAIE KPADONOU G.
Published: March 2020

The requirements for a quality and sufficient market gardening production are far from being achieved. This problem has been exacerbated by climate change, while the demand for vegetables increases in proportion to the population growth and to the high rate of urbanization. Alternative practices are proposed by Climate Smart Agriculture (CSA) that basically promotes a trade-off between improvement of crop productivity, climate change adaptation and mitigation. How could this approach contribute to positively impact the market gardening sub sector and vegetable production in particular? Therefore, this paper in a first phase identified and described potential practices from literature and in a second one analysed their performances. The first phase had three steps: (1) the review of the fundamentals of the CSA concept in regard to market gardening production, (2) identification and description of potential practices and technologies based on literature and (3) a qualitative comparative analysis of their potentialities vis-a-vis CSA criteria to identify recommendable practices. The second phase analysed quantitatively the performances of the recommendable practices using the Evidence of Resilient Agriculture (ERA), a meta-dataset online platform with Amaranthus, Lettuce/Cabbage and Tomato as test crops. This provides a comprehensive overview of the adequacy of these practices with CSA requirements. Thus, laying the foundation for scaling up the CSA concept in vegetable crops production with the reorientation and improvement of good practices against climate change. Practices and technologies recommended for a CSA, are those related to the use of improved crops varieties, ground-water mobilisation through on-farm water pits creation where water table is shallow and surface water unavailable, drip irrigation and use of mulching, optimal organic fertilizers application and rationale chemical application (like microdosing), and finally the use of processing and conservation techniques that demand less energy and promote renewable energy like solar driers. The results from the ERA analysis revealed an average change of 69.5% for Amaranthus, 53.3% for Lettuce/Cabbage and 36.4% for Tomato by applying those practices together. Thus, the combination of these practices and technologies in one package as CSA technologies could be favourable for CSA scaling up in vegetable crops production system in West-Africa.

Attaining stable electrolyzer operation under multi-annual climatic variations in almost fully renewable electricity systems: the case of Sweden
Authors: Mikovits Christian , Wetterlund Elisabeth , Baumgartner Johann , Wehrle Sebastian , Schmidt Johannes
Published: March 2020

Hydrogen produced from renewable electricity can play an important role in deep decarbonization of industry, such as primary steel-making. However, adding large electrolyzer capacities to a low-carbon electricity system also increases the need for additional renewable electricity generation which will mostly come from variable renewable energies (VRE). This will require hydrogen production to be variable, unless sufficient flexibility is provided by other sources. Existing sources of flexibility in hydro-thermal systems are (a) hydropower and (b) thermal generation. However, increasing the flexibility of hydropower generation may have negative consequences for river ecosystems and the use of fossil and non-fossil fuels in generation may increase if thermal power is increasingly used to balance short-falls in wind power during electrolyzer operation. We assess here for our Swedish case study the utilization of electrolyzers with a dispatch model, assuming that additional VRE generation matches the additional electricity demand of hydrogen production on average. The flexibility of hydropower and thermal generation is restricted in four scenarios, and we run our model for 29 different weather years to test the impact of variable weather regimes. We show that (a) in all scenarios, electrolyzer utilization is above 60% on average, (b) the inter-annual variability of hydrogen production is very high if thermal power is not dispatched for electrolysis, (c) this problem is aggravated if hydropower flexibility is also restricted, and therefore (d) either long-term storage of hydrogen, backup hydrogen sources, or additional flexibility measures may be necessary to guarantee continuous hydrogen flows, and (e) adding wind power and electrolysis decreases the need for other backup flexibility measures in the system during climatic extreme events.
Prevalence of overweight and obesity among school children of Bhaktapur and Kathmandu
Authors: Kayastha Pawana , Vaidya Binit , Shakya Dipesh
Published: March 2020

Background: World Health Organization defines childhood obesity as “one of the most serious public health challenges”. Low income countries like Nepal experience a burden of infectious diseases as well as rising incidence of noncommunicable diseases frequently associated with obesity. There is paucity of information on childhood obesity in Nepal.

Objectives: This study aims to determine the prevalence of childhood obesity and overweight in school going children and find its association with blood pressure.Methodology: A school based cross-sectional analytical study was conducted on 509 children aged between 10-16 years, studying in grade 5-10 of private schools in Kathmandu and Bhaktapur. Simple random sampling technique was used for data collection. Anthropometric measurements and blood pressure were taken using standard protocol. Obesity was assessed using Body Mass Index criteria.Results: The overall prevalence of obesity and overweight in children were found to be 1.6% and 6.1% respectively. This study also showed that prevalence of obesity in children from Kathmandu is comparatively more, which was statistically significant (p<0.001). A highly significant relationship was observed for diastolic blood pressure and Body Mass Index (p<0.001) between the two groups.Conclusion: This study concludes that obesity though small in percentage, was found in rising trend when compared with previous data. Also, there was strong association with blood pressure, so timely identification and control of obesity is required for prevention of development of other cardiovascular comorbidities.
Estimation of sex using discriminant function analysis of percutaneous finger lengths in Nepalese adults
Authors: Walung Eugen Dolma , Maharjan Mani Raj , Shrestha Rijen
Published: March 2020

Background: Disasters are a common occurrence in Nepal. This necessitates the development of baseline forensic anthropological data specific to the Nepalese population. Recent advances in the field of forensic medicine and sciences have somewhat reduced the relevance of forensic anthropology in the western developed world. The financial burden of these newer techniques, however, puts emphasis back on methodological examination of remains to establish identity.Objectives: To establish the sex of the individual from the percutaneous length of the fingers.Methodology: One hundred and twenty medical students (58 males and 62 females) were randomly selected and their finger lengths measured. These measurements were analyzed to establish discriminant functions to estimate sex.Results: The equation derived was Y = (1.822 x Left index finger length) + (1.141 x Left little finger length) – 19.211. Group centroids were calculated to be -0.933 for females and 0.998 for males. The sensitivity was found to be 76.9% and a specificity of 78.2%. Overall, the function correctly classified 77.5% of the original cases.Conclusion: Based on these findings, finger length is as reliable in estimation of sex of an individual as other longs bones and can be an ideal tool for examination, especially in remains where the skull and pelvis are absent or missing.

Authors: Parajuli Puspa , Paudel Narayani , Dahal Sunita
Published: March 2020

Background: Cervical cancer is the leading female cancer in Nepal. Fortunately, it is preventable by detectingprecancerous lesions and by various screening tools for early invasive cancers. Screening can be possible if women are aware of the problem. Despite the existence of effective screening using Pap smear, the uptake of screening is poor.Objectives: The objective of this study was to assess the awareness and practice regarding cervical cancer screening among women visiting tertiary hospital.Methodology: A descriptive cross – sectional study was conducted to assess the awareness and practice regarding cervical cancer screening among women attending in gynaecological outpatient department of Kathmandu Medical College Teaching Hospital. A total of one hundred and fifty two women were selected purposively for the study. Structured questionnaire was designed and data collection was done through face to face interview technique during the period of September to November 2018. The collected data were analyzed by using Statistical Package for Social Science version 20.Results: Among 152 respondents, majority of the respondents (59.2%) were aware that multiple sexual partners is one of the risk factors of cervical cancer. 38.8% were aware that cervical cancer can be prevented by regular cervical screening. Majority of the respondents: 152 (44.7%) had given correct response regarding meaning of cervical cancer screening and 42.8% were aware of Pap smear test for cervical screening. Only 31.6% had performed cervical cancer screening at least once. Overall mean percentage knowledge was 3.08 with SD 0.96.There was weak correlation between knowledge and practice.Conclusion: This study concluded that majority of respondents had inadequate knowledge and practice regarding cervical cancer screening. Thus, cervical cancer screening health camps and awareness program should be conducted at community to national level for women, to increase the level of knowledge and practice regarding cervical cancer screening.

Published: March 2020

Atrial fibrillation is the most common type of arrhythmia with increasing burden for stroke and thromboembolic events. Medical treatment of atrial fibrillation has not shown promising results, so alternative method of treatment is emerging out. Cox-Maze procedure has been used for decades for the treatment of atrial fibrillation. Surgical treatment of atrial fibrillation with traditional Cox-Maze procedure is a complex and technically challenging procedure limiting its use in clinical practice. Recently, radiofrequency ablation is being used as a modification of Cox-Maze procedure. However, its effect in the treatment of atrial fibrillation in not reported uniformly and in large number of patients. Therefore, our aim of study was to assess the impact of concomitant radiofrequency ablation in the treatment of atrial fibrillation during cardiac surgery. We performed literature review on PubMed Central to evaluate effect of concomitant radiofrequency ablation for atrial fibrillation treatment. About 303 papers were found using the reported search, of which 15 represented suitable to fulfill our query. The authors, date, patient group, study type, relevant outcomes and results of these papers are tabulated. We conclude that radiofrequency ablation surgery of left atrium at the time of other cardiac procedures is a comparatively straightforward procedure with satisfactory freedom from atrial fibrillation, acceptable morbidity, mortality, and minor procedure related complications. Careful patients selection by sticking to the - Rule of 5, i.e. left atrial diameter less than 55 mm and atrial fibrillation duration no more than five years, is recommended to optimize the result of atrial fibrillation surgery.
West syndrome - Diagnostic dilemma in a month old infant without typical electroencephalographic features: A case report
Authors: Subedi Kiran , Basnet Rydam , Bhandari Bikash , Gongal Sonsy , Rajak Ashik
Published: March 2020

Infantile spasm constitutes 2% of childhood epilepsies but 25% of epilepsy with onset in the first year of life. The rate of infantile spasm is estimated to be 2.5-6.0 cases per 10,000 live births. Its prevalence rate is 1.5-2.0 cases per 10,000 children aged 10 years or younger. Ninety percent of infantile spasms begin in infants younger than 12 months with a peak onset at age 4-6 months. 

We report a case of 45 days old male child who had onset of flexor spasms since one month of age which is an unusual age of onset of West syndrome. The symptoms were initially thought as a simple startle response by the mother. This is a rare case because of its age of onset and lack of typical electroencephalographic features. Although the electroencephalography showed abnormal pattern suggesting seizure disorder, the frequently encountered pattern of hypsarrhythmia seen in children with infantile spasm was not seen in this case. It was difficult to assess developmental regression in a month old child who in subsequent visits had some degree of developmental delay. Hence fulfilling two of the three criterias for the diagnosis.
Capital Structure and Firm Efficiency of Non Financial Institutions in Nepal
Authors: Jaishi Bhupal , Poudel Resam Lal
Published: March 2020

Capital structure and firm’s efficiency of non-financial companies of Nepal is a less explored research in the Nepalese context. The paper examines the relationship between leverage and efficiency of non-financial firms in Nepal. This paper employs descriptive as well as casual research design to examine the general structure of leverage and efficiency and their relationship too. Secondary data were employed for the study which was extracted from the annual report of respective companies with 60 observations ranging from two to 14 years. The non-financial institution listed in Nepal Stock Exchange is the population of the study. Fifteen companies representing one from trading, three from the hotel sector, five from manufacturing, six from hydro were selected as the sample for the study employing stratified cum purposive sampling method. The variables namely size, tangibility, growth, profitability, leverage and efficiency were analyzed. Descriptive as well as regression analysis was used to assess the relationship among the variables. Different models were used to test the hypothesis. Most of the Nepalese non-financial institution employs both debt and equity in their capital formation. The firms having high leverage are less efficient and more efficient firms’ use low leverage. Nepalese non-financial institutions increase in size, investment intangible assets and profitability does not necessarily increase the efficiency of the firms. The positive relationship between efficiency and tangibility justify that more investment in tangible assets increases the firm’s efficiency. An increase in sales increases the growth rate of nonfinancial firms as suggested by the positive relationship between size and growth. There is no consistency on the impact of size, tangibility, profitability, and growth on leverage among four industries within nonfinancial firms. The major conclusion of this study is that size, tangibility, profitability, and growth are the significant factors in determining the efficiency and leverage of Nepalese non-financial firms. The firms having high leverage are less efficient and more efficient firms use low leverage.

Authors: Lama Bijay
Published: March 2020

Although the number of working Nepali women is in the increasing trend, there is lack of data indicating exact number of Nepali women involved in managerial jobs. The general purpose of the study is to find out the effect of glass ceiling on women career development in banks operating in Pokhara Metropolitan City. The dependent variable is career progression refers, employee interested in advancing or achieving their career. Hypotheses indicate that there are significant impact of personal, organizational and societal barrier on women career development. The population which has been selected for the study was female employees working at lower, middle and higher levels of selected commercial banks, development banks and finance companies. The female employees have been selected for this survey and sample size of this study was 99. This research study relied upon the survey method for collection of data. The Cronbach’s alpha test was conducted for reliability which resulted 0.727 that define data are closest to reality. The study found that among the glass ceiling’s factors most influencing factor is societal barrier. Hence, female employee must have to work in order to avoid the societal barriers. Difficulty in maintaining family and job responsibilities; and lack of family support results women employees not to accept higher post. It is suggested to the financial institutions to conduct activities that focus on maintaining balance between work and family life.
Comparative Study of Cardiovascular Response to Laryngoscopy With Endotracheal Intubation and Laryngeal Mask Airway Insertion
Authors: Poudel Hari , Shrestha Rabin Sundar , Bawa S.N.
Published: March 2020

Background: Airway management is the most essential manoeuvre during delivery of general anaesthesia. Traditionally, laryngoscopy and endotracheal tube (ETT) insertion has been the mainstay in providing adequate airway management and delivering anaesthesia. The laryngeal mask airway (LMA) offers a much less invasive way of maintaining the airway as it does not pass through the glottis and does not require the use of the laryngoscope. Laryngoscopy and ETT or LMA insertion are noxious stimuli which provoke a transient but marked sympathetic response manifesting as hypertension and tachycardia.

Materials and Methods: A hospital based comparative study was conducted to determine the haemodynamic response elicited by laryngoscopy and ETT and compare it with that elicited by LMA in ASA I (American Society Anesthesiologist) and ASA II patients, undergoing elective surgeries at Manipal Teaching Hospital.

Results: The change in hemodynamic parameters after laryngoscopy and ETT insertion were significantly greater than those elicited by LMA (p<0.0001). The increase took about 5 minutes to return to pre insertion values in the ETT group, whereas about 3 minutes in the LMA group. It took a significantly shorter time to insert an LMA (12.63 sec) compared to ETT (22.76 sec).

Conclusion: The haemodynamic changes elicited by LMA are less and short lived compared to those elicited by laryngoscopy and ETT insertion. It takes a shorter time and is much easier to insert an LMA compared to ETT.

„Czy ktoś go widział, kiedy szedł poprzez angielskie piękne wzgórza?”
Authors: Kamińska Aleksandra
Published: March 2020

Artykuł poświęcony jest problemowi nieprzekładalności kulturowej w dramacie i jej wpływowi na zjawisko transferu kulturowego w teatrze na przykładzie sztuki Jeruzalem Jeza Butterwortha (2009), której polskie tłumaczenie autorstwa Krzysztofa Puławskiego zostało opublikowane w „Dialogu” w 2013 roku. Jeruzalem to tekst silnie naznaczony elementami kulturowymi, pełen odniesień do angielskich tradycji literackich i ludowych, a także do rzeczywistości politycznej i społecznej na Wyspach, co z pewnością nie pozostało bez wpływu na polską recepcję. Do analizy kulturowych aspektów sztuki wykorzystane zostało rozróżnienie poziomów nieprzekładalności zdefiniowanych przez Edwarda Balcerzana. W artykule omówiona została m.in. nieprzekładalność cytatu, konotacji oraz chwytu językowego.
Nagi język
Authors: Głowacka Aneta
Published: March 2020

Elfriede Jelinek jest obecnie jednym z częściej wystawianych w Polsce niemieckojęzycznych autorów, chociaż twórcy teatralni dość długo przekonywali się do tej dramaturgii. Celem artykułu jest przyjrzenie się procesowi przyswajania twórczości Jelinek przez polski teatr, przy wykorzystaniu poręcznej w tym przypadku koncepcji transferów kultury. Omawiając krętą drogę austriackiej pisarki na krajowe sceny, wskazuję pośredników (tłumaczy, reżyserów), którzy w pewnym sensie stali się jej ambasadorami w Polsce, a także omawiam warunki sprzyjające procesom adaptacyjnym. Nie bez znaczenia są przemiany estetyczne w polskim teatrze, w ostatnim dwudziestoleciu stymulowane z Zachodu, które dały narzędzia polskim artystom do zmierzenia się z tą niełatwą, eksperymentalną i bardzo sensualną dramaturgią.
Transfer kulturowy w klasycznym tańcu indyjskim odissi w Indiach
Authors: Sen-Podstawska Sabina Sweta
Published: March 2020

Tekst ma na celu ukazanie zmian zachodzących w klasycznym tańcu indyjskim Odissi pod wpływem zachodnich koncepcji, idei i praktyk w tańcu i teatrze. Opierając się na aspektach opisanych przez Dominika Picka, podejmuję się analizy transferu kulturowego w metodologii nauczania oraz w praktyce współczesnych tancerzy Odissi w Indiach. Analizy tej dokonuję na przykładach praktyk instytutu tańcu Nrityagram oraz tancerki Sharmila Mukherjee. W obu przypadkach rozważam kwestię koniunktury rozpatrując podłoże socjo-kulturowe w Indiach, liberalizację ekonomii, która pozwoliła na otwarcie się na rynek światowy, większy wpływ globalizacji oraz mobilność, czyli migrację tancerek. Biorę pod uwagę aktorów transferu, czyli „migrujących tancerzy”, którzy poznają nowe praktyki ćwiczeń kondycyjnych, pracy nad ciałem i techniki tańca, oraz swobodnie przenoszą i wcielają je do swoich praktyk „w domu”. Do nich należą też osoby inspirujące się motywami europejskich tańców. Następnie opisuje i analizuję ideę, koncepcję i praktyki zachodnie jako przedmiot transferu. Ostatecznie badam proces przyswajania przedmiotu transferu, jaki wpływ ma zastosowanie tych praktyk w tańcu Odissi oraz jakie są przemiany z tym związane.

Rewiwalizm kultury i folkloryzm
Authors: Fox Dorota
Published: March 2020

Wzrost zainteresowania tradycją i pamięcią, także mocno odczuwalna potrzeba „zakorzenienia” się w środowisku, przejawia się obecnie między innymi w rozkwicie rozmaitych widowisk opartych na folklorze, wyrastających z dawnej tradycji ludowej, w różny sposób ją eksplorujących. Widowiska tego typu były i są nadal domeną teatrów amatorskich, działających w środowisku wiejskim, poza głównym nurtem życia teatralnego, co tłumaczy niewielkie nimi zainteresowanie badaczy, zarówno teatrologów jak i etnografów. Zmiana takiego nastawienia wymaga podjęcia gruntownych badań terenowych, by opisać fenomen amatorskich teatrów obrzędowych i ich kondycje w czasach współczesnych w najodpowiedniejszym dla nich kontekście: olkloryzmu, postfolkloryzmu. oraz rewiwalizmu. Zawarte w artykule rozważania  są zatem wstępem do tego typu badań i sprawdzeniem możliwości wykorzystania w nich koncepcji transferu kulturowego. Wydaje się bowiem interesujące prześledzenie dróg transmisji treści ludowej kultury tradycyjnej - folkloru, do jakiej dochodziło i nadal dochodzi za pośrednictwem teatrów obrzędowych, w sieci uwarunkowań, jakim podlegają, działając w ciągle zmieniającej się pod wpływem mediów rzeczywistości kulturowej oraz wstępne rozpoznanie celów, jakie stawiają sobie inicjatorzy i sprawcy tego transferu.

This study aims to determine the extent of the role of the family welfare empowerment program (PKK) in increasing women's empowerment in Telaga District. This research is a qualitative research with data collection method through interviews and documentation. The research results obtained that the implementation of the PKK program has provided many benefits in empowering women, especially in the village. The success was obtained thanks to government support at the sub-district level and also for direct coaching by the Gorontalo Regency PKK management to sub-district and village PKK. The PKK program is also not fully implemented. The main obstacles faced are the low capacity of the community, especially women, and the lack of mastery of technology. For this reason, active participation and full support from the government are needed in the development and maximization of the PKK program. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui sejauhmana peran program pemberdayaan kesejahteraan keluarga (PKK) dalam meningkatkan pemberdayaan perempuan di Kecamatan Telaga. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif dengan metode pengumpulan data melalui wawancara dan dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian yang diperoleh bahwa pelaksanaan program PKK telah banyak memberikan manfaat dalam pemberdayaan perempuan khususnya di Desa. Keberhasilan diperoleh berkat adanya dukungan pemerintah di tingkat kecamatan dan juga atas pembinaan langsung oleh pengurus PKK Kabupaten Gorontalo kepada PKK kecamatan hingga desa. Program PKK juga belum sepenuhnya dilaksanakan secara maksimal. Hambatan utama yang dihadapi adalah masih rendahnya kapasitas masyarakat khususnya perempuan serta masih minimnya penguasaan terhadap teknologi. Untuk itu diperlukan partisipasi aktif dan dukungan penuh dari pemerintah dalam pengembangan dan maksimalisasi program PKK.

The research of the effects of grain size, oxidizers, and catalysts on band gap energy of gelam-wood carbon has been conducted in which the carbons were produced from gelam-wood pyrolysis in high temperatures. The instrumentations used in this study were UV-Vis, FTIR spectrophotometer, and SEM. SEM and FTIR were used to characterize the morphology and the functionality of the carbon surface. UV-Vis spectrograms showed that the electronic property of carbon such as band gap was affected when grain size and surface area were changed. The increase of the functional groups in carbon occurred as the surface area of the carbon was increased. Band gap energy of crystalline carbon became much lower along with the increase in grain size due to the effects of bands-broadening. FTIR spectrograms showed that the carbon contained of hydroxyl and carboxylic groups. The hydroxyls were derived from steam-oxidized carbon that was provided narrower in the interlayer distance and lower-set band gap energy. Carboxylic groups were derived from acid nitric oxidation causing flat layer to become curved. The layers were wider and the band energy was higher. The main factor that affects the electronic structure of metal oxide in carbon/metal oxide composites was atomic alignments. The band gap energy increased along with the increase of the asymmetry alignments in metal oxide.

Administrative guidelines as a source of immigration law?
Authors: Vetters Larissa
Published: March 2020

This article makes a conceptual and methodological argument for ethnographically studying a certain type of paperwork in immigration bureaucracies, namely internal administrative guidelines. Much ethnographic research has focused on case files, application forms, identity documents and judicial decisions attempting to shed light on bureaucrats’ discretionary power and migrants’ strategies of navigating immigration laws. This article shifts attention from bureaucrats’ discretionary practices to their efforts to standardise and codify their own practices. The administrative guidelines of the Foreigners’ Registration Office of Berlin and the visa guidelines of the Federal Foreign Office of Germany are examined as legal documents that are produced in a web of textually grounded legal meanings, as well as in a meshwork of social and political relations and in turn reconfigure both social relations and legal meanings. Contextualised in such a way, these administrative guidelines shed light not only on ‘immigration law at work’ but also on ‘immigration law in the making’.
Pediatric neurosurgery training during residency in the United States: a program director survey
Authors: Limoges Natalie , D’Agostino Erin , Gelinne Aaron , Maher Cormac O. , Scott R. Michael , Grant Gerald , Krieger Mark D. , Limbrick David D. , White Michael , Durham Susan
Published: March 2020

OBJECTIVE

Pediatric neurosurgery is a core component of neurosurgical residency training. Pediatric case minimums are established by the Neurosurgery Residency Review Committee of the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME). Case minimums, by themselves, allow for great variability in training between programs. There are no prior data on how the residency programs meet these requirements. The authors’ objective was to gather information on pediatric neurosurgical education among the ACGME-accredited neurosurgery training programs in order to shape further pediatric neurosurgical educational efforts.

METHODS

A 25-question survey about pediatric neurosurgical education was created by the Education Committee of the Section on Pediatric Neurological Surgery of the American Association of Neurological Surgeons/Congress of Neurological Surgeons and distributed to program directors of all 111 ACGME-accredited neurosurgery training programs.

RESULTS

The response rate was 77% (86/111). In 55% of programs the residents are rotated to a responder-designated “freestanding” children’s hospital, and 39% of programs rotate residents to a children’s hospital within a larger adult hospital or a general hospital. There are 4 or fewer pediatric neurosurgical faculty in 91% of programs. In 12% of programs less than 100 cases are performed per year, and in 45% more than 500 are performed. In 31% of responding neurosurgery residency programs there is also a pediatric neurosurgery fellowship program supported by the same sponsoring institution. Seventy-seven percent of programs have at least one specific pediatric neurosurgery rotation, with 71% of those rotations occurring during postgraduate year 3 and 50% occurring during postgraduate year 4. The duration of pediatric rotation varies from no specific rotation to more than 1 year, with 48% of residents spending 4–6 months on a pediatric rotation and 12% spending 7–11 months. Last, 17% of programs send their residents to external sites sponsoring other residency programs for their pediatric rotation.

CONCLUSIONS

There is great variety between neurosurgery training programs with regard to resident education in pediatric neurosurgery. This study’s data will serve as a baseline for future studies, and the authors hope the findings will guide further efforts in pediatric neurosurgical education in residency training programs.

OBJECTIVE

The authors’ goal was to prospectively quantify the impact of resting-state functional MRI (rs-fMRI) on pediatric epilepsy surgery planning.

METHODS

Fifty-one consecutive patients (3 months to 20 years old) with intractable epilepsy underwent rs-fMRI for presurgical evaluation. The team reviewed the following available diagnostic data: video-electroencephalography (n = 51), structural MRI (n = 51), FDG-PET (n = 42), magnetoencephalography (n = 5), and neuropsychological testing (n = 51) results to formulate an initial surgery plan blinded to the rs-fMRI findings. Subsequent to this discussion, the connectivity results were revealed and final recommendations were established. Changes between pre– and post–rs-fMRI treatment plans were determined, and changes in surgery recommendation were compared using McNemar’s test.

RESULTS

Resting-state fMRI was successfully performed in 50 (98%) of 51 cases and changed the seizure onset zone localization in 44 (88%) of 50 patients. The connectivity results prompted 6 additional studies, eliminated the ordering of 11 further diagnostic studies, and changed the intracranial monitoring plan in 10 cases. The connectivity results significantly altered surgery planning with the addition of 13 surgeries, but it did not eliminate planned surgeries (p = 0.003). Among the 38 epilepsy surgeries performed, the final surgical approach changed due to rs-fMRI findings in 22 cases (58%), including 8 (28%) of 29 in which extraoperative direct electrical stimulation mapping was averted.

CONCLUSIONS

This study demonstrates the impact of rs-fMRI connectivity results on the decision-making for pediatric epilepsy surgery by providing new information about the location of eloquent cortex and the seizure onset zone. Additionally, connectivity results may increase the proportion of patients considered eligible for surgery while optimizing the need for further testing.

BACKGROUND: Many previous studies have explored the effects of manual massage on back muscle fatigue, and most of the mechanical massage techniques imitate manual massage. However, it is unknown whether mechanical and manual massage have the same functions for exercise-induced back muscle fatigue. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of mechanical bed massage on the biochemical markers of exercise-induced back muscle fatigue in male collegiate athletes. METHODS: Twenty-eight male collegiate athletes who met the experimental criteria were recruited in this randomized controlled trial, and randomly assigned to a mechanical bed massage group (experimental group) or resting group (control group). The subjects performed eight bouts of reverse sit-up in the prone position and received 20 minutes of the intervention. Creatine kinase, blood lactate, and serum cortisol levels were measured at baseline, after fatigue, after intervention, and after 24 hours. RESULTS: The level of serum cortisol of the control group was significantly higher than that of the experimental group after the intervention (p< 0.05). The comparison of the two groups for blood lactate levels showed no significant differences at any of the measurement time-points (p> 0.05). There was no significant difference in creatine kinase levels immediately after the intervention (p> 0.05), but a significant difference in creatine kinase level was observed between the two groups 24 hours later (p< 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Significant differences were observed between mechanical bed massage and rest condition on serum cortisol and creatine kinase for exercise-induced muscle fatigue. Therefore, mechanical bed massage may reduce stress and muscle damage for the athlete after training or competition.
The influence of organizational values on job satisfaction of employees
Authors: Gorenak Mitja , Edelheim Johan R. , Brumen Boštjan
Published: March 2020

BACKGROUND:

Previous research has shown different ways how managers can influence job satisfaction of employees, mostly in form of external factors. We found that there is little research regarding organizational values and their influence on job satisfaction of employees.

OBJECTIVE:

The objective of this research was therefore to identify if there is a statistically significant influence on job satisfaction from organizational values.

METHODS:

The article is based on a quantitative approach where we have performed a survey among employees in a selected sector. In the questionnaire we asked respondents to evaluate what kind of organizational values the organization they work for does promote, later we asked respondents to evaluate what influences their job satisfaction, and in the final part we have collected demographical data.

RESULTS:

The results show a weak, but still detectable, positive correlation between organizational values and job satisfaction of employees with regard to work itself. Additionally, we have found a positive correlation between organizational value innovation and satisfaction with working conditions.

CONCLUSIONS:

There is an influence of organizational values on job satisfaction of employees with regard to job satisfaction with work itself. This indicated that employees feel the influence of promoted organizational values and that it does influence their job satisfaction.
Setting final target score in T-20 cricket match by the team batting first
Authors: Modekurti Durga Prasad Venkata
Published: March 2020

The purpose of this paper is to develop a deterministic model for setting the target in T-20 Cricket by the team batting first. Mathematical tools were used in model development. Recursive function and secondary data statistics of T-20 cash rich cricket tournament Indian Premier League (IPL) such as runs scored in different stages, fall wickets in different stages, and type of pitch are used in developing the model. This model was tested at 120 matches held IPL 2016 and 2017. This model had been proved effective by comparing with the models developed earlier. This model can be a useful tool to the stakeholders like coach and captain of the team for adopting better strategy at any stage of the match. For future research, this model can be useful in framing a regulation work by policy makers at both national and international cricket board by deriving the target score during interruptions.

El concepto de empresa en la encíclica caritas in veritate:
Authors: Aguado muñoz Ricardo
Published: March 2020

La doctrina social de la Iglesia, desde la Rerum Novarum de León XIII (1891) hasta la Caritas in Veritate de Benedicto XVI (2009), ha propuesto un modelo de empresa basado en la libertad individual para la puesta en marcha de iniciativas empresariales conjugado con la responsabilidad social y el respeto medioambiental. De esta manera, la misión principal del empresario no consistiría en maximizar de cualquier manera el beneficio empresarial, sino en convertirse en un innovador que genera e impulsa proyectos. De manera expresa, en la encíclica Caritas in Veritate se anima al empresario a ir más allá de la lógica del beneficio, sin renunciar a él. De igual manera, se pone de manifiesto la importancia de la empresa como un valioso lugar de creatividad y de generación de puestos de trabajo, riqueza y nuevos productos y servicios. Adicionalmente, en la encíclica se señala que la gestión de la empresa debe responder no solamente al interés de sus propietarios, sino también al interés del conjunto de sujetos que se relacionan con ella (trabajadores, clientes, proveedores,…) y al interés del entorno social en el que se inserta, teniendo en cuenta la sostenibilidad ambiental de ese mismo entorno. En esta comunicación, en primer lugar, se presentarán los principios básicos sobre los que se asienta actualmente la economía de mercado. En segundo lugar, se efectuará un breve repaso de las ideas principales de la encíclica Caritas in Veritate sobre la actividad económica y empresarial. En tercer lugar, se introducirá la idea de “economía de comunión” y será analizada a la luz de la encíclica Caritas in Veritate. El artículo se cierra con un apartado de conclusiones.

Revivificar una comunidad de memoria y progreso.
Authors: De Redacción Consejo
Published: March 2020

Partiendo de la reciente visita del papa Francisco al Parlamento europeo (noviembre 2014), el editorial propone un ejercicio de memoria histórica sobre la construcción europea, que contrasta con el pesimismo ante la actual situación de deformación democrática (no sólo existe el déﬁcit democrático de las instituciones comunitarias, sino que sufrimos un más profundo déﬁcit de legitimidad de las mismas) y de competitividad en un contexto global dominado por la “cultura del descarte”, tan contraria a la cohesión social capaz de integrar el binomio competitividad / justicia social, que ha sido una característica central del proceso de construcción europea. Ciertamente en la mente y en la palabra de Francisco en el Parlamento de Estrasburgo todo no se reduce a esa integración, sino a otra que él retiene esencial, expresada por la dignidad transcendente que permea todas las tradiciones europeas originarias. Pero el futuro de la Unión europea pasa sin duda por mantener –y profundizar– exigentemente el sistema de economía social de mercado y la garantía de los derechos fundamentales. El editorial, pues, parte de la interpelación del Papa en Estrasburgo (apartados 1 y 2) para proponer dos ejes irrenunciables de la construcción europea (apartados 3 y 4). Desde ambas perspectivas, la mirada ética y la propuesta política, la ciudadanía europea puede recuperar su conﬁanza en este proyecto.
El fraude en la información empresarial en el marco de las relaciones financieras
Authors: Molina Sánchez Horacio
Published: March 2020

El sistema ﬁnanciero se fundamenta en la conﬁanza. La información es la base sobre la cual se toman las decisiones y su veracidad es clave para mantener la conﬁanza. El fraude en la información altera seriamente este pilar del sistema ﬁnanciero y genera alarma social. El artículo presenta la metodología de Cressey para la detección del fraude y que conceptualiza que en todo fraude se dan cita una presión o incentivo en la comisión de un fraude; una oportunidad de poder cometerlo y no ser detectado y una racionalización por parte del defraudador que justiﬁque éticamente su comportamiento. Sobre la base de estos tres pilares el artículo revisa diversos debates que tratan de mitigar las conductas fraudulentas.
