Aim. The study was designed to reveal ethnic differences in percutaneous coronary interventions according to data of the “Register of the performed operations of transluminal balloon coronary angioplasty.”Methods. Three thousand one hundred and six patients were selected from the list of the Register and divided in five ethnic groups: Russians (n = 2,777), Tatars (n = 130), Ukrainians (n = 126), Azerbaijani (n = 44) and Armenians (n = 29). Intergroup comparison of clinical and functional parameters, as well as transluminal balloon coronary angioplasty results, was carried out.Results. Significant intergroup differences were observed in gender and age of the patients: groups of Russians and Tatars had the smallest proportion of men as compared with Ukrainians and Azerbaijani (83.5% and 83.1% vs 94.4% and 97.7%, respectively; р<0.01), the youngest group was that of Azerbaijani with mean age 49.25±7.4 years. The prevalence of smoking in the Azerbaijani group was significantly higher than among Russians (54.3% vs 39.5%; р<0.05). Alcohol intake was significantly different between the groups of Armenians and Russians (46.4% vs 25.1%; р<0.05). Armenians as compared to Tatars more rarely had severe functional classes of effort angina (class III–IV 25.0% vs 59.6%; р<0.05) and arterial hypertension was diagnosed less frequently when compared with Russians, Tatars and Ukrainians (57.9% vs 82.7%, 78.3% and 84.3%, respectively; р<0.01). Diabetes mellitus was more often detected in the group of Azerbaijanis as compared to others. Analysis of angiographic parameters showed more frequent hemodynamically significant lesions of the circumflex branch in Armenian patients compared to Russians and Ukrainians (50.0% vs 32.0% and 29.9%, respectively; р<0.05). There were no significant differences among the groups in other angiographic parameters. No significant intergroup differences were detected in the results of intracoronary intervention and the number of in-hospital complications. Conclusion. When comparing ethnic groups according to the “Register of the performed operations of transluminal balloon coronary angioplasty”, no significant differences were detected in frequency, features and outcomes of percutaneous coronary interventions. Comparison of clinical and functional parameters showed that the Azerbaijanis group looked least favorable due to a higher prevalence of some risk factors, despite their younger age.Received 19 December 2017.

O potencial emancipatório da produção cultural na relação entre mundo sistêmico e mundo da vida
Authors: Andrade Mirnah Leite M. M.
Published: April 2018

Este trabalho busca entender o lugar da cultura e o potencial emancipatório da produção cultural dialogando com a teoria da ação comunicativa elaborada por Jürgen Habermas. Procuramos evidenciar que apenas a linguagem em sua expressão mais tradicional, a língua, pode ser um meio insuficiente de compreensão de contextos sociais, sobretudo em conjunturas marcadas por desigualdades e subordinação. Por isso a produção cultural, em suas mais variadas formas de expressão e linguagem, pode ser também um instrumento de busca por uma atitude emancipatória com intenção de harmonizar o mundo sistêmico e o mundo da vida. Essa forma de expressão elaborada na produção cultural, menos associada às estruturas rígidas e instrumentalizadas da razão científica, proporciona outros desenhos de relação com o mundo da vida, apontando-nos um entendimento da ação comunicativo-emancipatória forjada na cultura.
Endometriosis: A Clinical Enigma
Authors: Odokuma Emmanuel Igho , Abedi H O , Onohwakpor E A
Published: April 2018

Endometriosis has been defined as the presence of endometrial tissue (gland and stroma) outside the inner lining of the endometrium. The lesion has been associated with debilitating and bizarre clinical features and in the absence of histopathologic assessment may result in severe consequences to the patient. Specifically, albeit rare, there is the possibility of malignant transformation. Therefore, this presentation on endometriosis as an unusual occurrence is of ardent import to health personnel, especially as regard to the requirements for in-depth intra/interdisciplinary consultation in general and the role of the pathologist, specifically in management of cases.Materials and methods. This was the case of a 30-year-old self-employed nulliparous female who was referred from a secondary health facility due to abdominal swelling of eight-month duration. The swelling was progressive and associated with an unproductive cough, chest pain, weight loss and dysmenorrhoea. The patient was subjected to clinical examination, haematologic review, radiologic assessment and histopathologic investigations.Results. The examination revealed dull percussion notes, reduced air entry into both right and left thoracic lung fields with bilateral crepitations in both lung fields. The abdomen was distended with massive ascitic fluid. The patient was stabilized and, consequently, an exploratory laparotomy demonstrated endometrial glands in the follicular phase with the associated stroma in the right ovaries. In sections of the omentum, there were endometrial glands and stroma, some of them were cystically dilated, filled with fluid and cellular debris in their lumen. Contribution to knowledge. This study has established the existence of endometriosis in a woman in her reproductive years further substantiating the multiple distribution presentation, debilitating nature and the role of histopathologic input in management of this lesion.

Authors: Chand Bharati
Published: April 2018

This paper highlights on constructivism approach by integrating ICT for collaborative learning. Constructivism transforms the learner from a passive recipient of information to an active participant in the learning process. The ICT integrated tools provides learning opportunities with which learners formulate and test their ideas, draw conclusions and inferences, and pool and convey their knowledge in a collaborative learning environment.Learners construct their knowledge actively rather than just mechanically ingesting knowledge from the teacher or the textbook. The ICT integrated collaborative learning techniques, help learners to promote content knowledge, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills.

Authors: Hullmann Stephanie E , Keller Stacy A , Lynch Dustin O , Jenkins Kelli , Moore Courtney , Cockrum Brandon , Wiehe Sarah E , Carroll Aaron E , Bennett Jr William E
Published: April 2018

BACKGROUND

Children with gastrointestinal symptoms have a very high rate of anxiety and depression. Rapid identification of comorbid anxiety and depression is essential for effective treatment of a wide variety of functional gastrointestinal disorders.

OBJECTIVE

The objective of our study was to determine patient and parent attitudes toward depression, anxiety, and mental health screening during gastroenterology (GI) visits and to determine patient and parent preferences for communication of results and referral to mental health providers after a positive screen.

METHODS

We augmented standard qualitative group session methods with patient-centered design methods to assess patient and parent preferences. We used a variety of specific design methods in these sessions, including card sorting, projective methods, experience mapping, and constructive methods.

RESULTS

Overall, 11 families (11 patients and 14 parents) participated in 2 group sessions. Overall, patients and their parents found integrated mental health care to be acceptable in the subspecialty setting. Patients’ primary concerns were for the privacy and confidentiality of their screening results. Patients and their parents emphasized the importance of mental health services not interfering with the GI visit and collaboration between the GI physician, psychologist, and primary care provider.

CONCLUSIONS

Patients and their families are open to integrated mental health care in the pediatric subspecialty clinic. The next phase of the DECADES study will translate patient and parent preferences into an integrated mental health care system and test its efficacy in the pediatric GI office.
Involving Citizen-Patients in the Development of Telehealth Services: Qualitative Study of Experts’ and Citizen-Patients’ Perspectives (Preprint)
Authors: Alami Hassane , Gagnon Marie-Pierre , Fortin Jean-Paul
Published: April 2018

BACKGROUND

Decisions regarding telehealth services in Quebec (Canada) have been largely technocratic by nature for the last 15 years, and the involvement of citizen-patients in the development of telehealth services is virtually nonexistent. In view of the societal challenges that telehealth raises, citizen-patient involvement could ensure more balance between evidence from traditional research methodologies and technical experts and the needs and expectations of populations in decisions about telehealth services.

OBJECTIVE

This study aimed to explore the perception of various stakeholders (decision makers, telehealth program and policy managers, clinicians, researchers, evaluators, and citizen-patients) regarding the involvement of citizen-patients in the development of telehealth services in Quebec. In particular, we explored its potential advantages, added value, obstacles, and challenges it raises for decision making.

METHODS

We used a qualitative research approach based on semistructured individual interviews, with a total of 29 key actors. Respondents were identified by the contact network method. Interviews were recorded and transcribed verbatim. A pragmatic content thematic analysis was performed. To increase the capacity for interpretation and analysis, we were guided by the principle of data triangulation.

RESULTS

Citizen-patient involvement in decision making is perceived more as a theoretical idea than as a practical reality in health care organizations or in the health system. There is very little connection between citizen involvement structures or patient and user groups and telehealth leaders. For the respondents, citizen-patient involvement in telehealth could increase the accountability and transparency of decision making and make it more pragmatic within an innovation-driven health system. This involvement could also make citizen-patients ambassadors and promoters of telehealth and improve the quality and organization of health services while ensuring they are more socially relevant. Challenges and constraints that were reported include the ambiguity of the citizen-patient, who should be involved and how, claimant citizen-patient, the risk of professionalization of citizen-patient involvement, and the gap between decision time versus time to involve the citizen-patient.

CONCLUSIONS

This study provides a basis for future research on the potential of involving citizen-patients in telehealth. There is a great need for research on the issue of citizen-patient involvement as an organizational innovation (in terms of decision-making model). Research on the organizational predisposition and preparation for such a change becomes central. More efforts to synthesize and translate knowledge on public participation in decision making in the health sector, particularly in the field of technology development, are needed.

Published: April 2018

Objective: In a previous study, Centaurea aegyptiaca ethanol and ethyl acetate extracts showed potent cytotoxic effects against laryngeal (HEP2) and hepatic (HEPG2) carcinoma cell lines. Additionally, two novel compounds were isolated and identified. The aim of this study is to continue isolating and identifying another compound (s) that may, also, be responsible for this potent biological activity.Methods: C. aegyptiaca dried aerial parts were extracted with ethanol and ethyl acetate. Both extracts were chromatographed separately to afford seven guaianolides that were identified using different spectroscopic methods. Moreover, compounds 1-7 were evaluated for their cytotoxicity (IC50, µM) against HEP2 and HEPG2 cells in comparison to the normal fibroblasts (BHK) using sulforhodamine B assay. Doxorubicin was used as a positive control.Results: Seven sesquiterpene lactones, centaurepensin, also known as chlorohyssopifolin A (1), 8α-hydroxy-11α, 13-dihydrozaluzanin C (2), chlorohyssopifolin B (3), desacylcynaropicrin (4), chlorohyssopifolin C, acroptilin (5), subluteolide (6), and solstitiolide (7) were isolated from C. aegyptiaca extracts and identified. This is the first report on the occurrence of 2, 4, 5 and 6 in C. aegyptiaca. Compounds 1-4 and 6 exhibited selective cytotoxic effects against HEP2 and HEPG2 cells. However, compounds 1 and 7 showed the highest activities against HEP2 with IC50 values of 10.6±0.02 and 10.9±0.03 µM, respectively. Moreover, compound 3 was the most potent one against HEPG2 cells with IC50value of 13.8±0.05 µM.Conclusions: Chemical investigation of C. aegyptiaca ethanol and ethyl acetate extracts led to the isolation and identification of seven guaianolides. These compounds exhibited good cytotoxic activities against HEP2 and HEPG2 cell lines.

Published: April 2018

Objective: To investigate the anti-diabetic activity of combined ethanolic extracts (1:1mixture) of dry leaves of Syzygium cumini and Psidium guajava belonging to the family Myrtaceae as well as to compare the anti-diabetic activity of these plants by in vitro methods.Methods: In vitro glucose uptake assay was performed on cultured L6 cell lines (rat myoblast cell line) and estimated the glucose uptake using high sensitivity glucose oxidase kit. In vitro alpha amylase inhibitory assay was performed on porcine alpha amylase and the absorbance was measured at 540 nm using a microplate reader. Acarbose was used as the standard in both the methods.Results: At a concentration of 100µg/ml the percentage glucose uptake by the combined ethanolic extract (1:1 mixture) of Syzygium cumini and Psidium guajava leaves was 43.95 while for acarbose the corresponding value was 51.71. At 100 μg/ml the percentage of glucose uptake by Syzygium cumini and Psidium guajava was 27.62 and 22.17 respectively. The percentage inhibition of alpha amylase by the combined ethanolic extract (1:1 mixture) of Syzygium cumini and Psidium guajava leaves at a concentration of 1000 µg/ml was 36.51 and it was 29.26 for Syzygium cumini and 23.43 for Psidium guajava. For acarbose the percentage inhibition of alpha amylase was 73.82 at the concentration of 1000 µg/ml.Conclusion: The combined extract of the leaves of the plants selected was found to be more effective than individual plant extracts against diabetes. The percentage glucose uptake of the combined extract was found to be closer to that of the standard drug acarbose. On comparison of two plants Syzygium cumini was found to be more active against diabetes than Psidium guajava. As the 1:1 mixture of the ethanolic extract is found to be more active, the combination of the two plants can be used to formulate drugs for treating diabetes.

Development of Mathematical Models for Identification of the Category of the Technical Condition of Building Constructions on the Basis of Fuzzy Logic
Authors: Tonkov Yu L
Published: April 2018

Статья содержит обоснование актуальности и необходимости разработки экспертных систем оценки технического состояния строительных объектов. Представлено описание структуры, методов построения и принципов работы нечеткой экспертной системы определения категории технического состояния строительных конструкций. Особенность описания состояния строительной конструкции заключается в неопределенности, источниками которой могут быть: невозможность точного измерения контролируемых величин; неточность исполнительских действий; невозможность четкого описания ситуации и т. п. Принятие решения о состоянии связано с решением задачи при весьма нечетких исходных данных, связанных с приблизительными «лингвистическими» характеристиками входных параметров (дефектов и повреждений конструкции, прочности материалов и пр.). Процесс определения категории технического состояния представляется как совокупность взаимосвязанных этапов (подзадач) решения поставленной задачи. Для оперативного выполнения этих этапов с помощью системного онтологического анализа произведена интеграция соответствующих подзадач в виде многоуровневой иерархической структуры (онтографа). Иерархический принцип позволяет упорядочить декларативные знания по этапам и скоординировать результаты решений соответствующих подзадач, используя разнородные информационные потоки. Построение формальных схем и моделей решения задач, характеризующихся недостаточностью информации, противоречивостью и малой достоверностью при обследовании строительных объектов, позволяет выполнять теория нечетких множеств и ее приложения. Определение четкого значения категории технического состояния предусматривает использование модели нечеткого логического вывода Мамдани. Формирование соответствующих баз знаний по Мамдани, в которой все значения входных и выходной переменных заданы нечеткими множествами, не вызывает трудностей у эксперта. Результаты исследований использованы при разработке исследовательского варианта экспертной системы для оценки технического состояния железобетонных изгибаемых элементов. Апробации и верификация программы проводилась на реально существующих конструкциях эксплуатируемых зданий и сооружений.
The Identification of Dependence of Weld Convexity Form on Parameters of Welding Conditions
Authors: Petrov P Yu
Published: April 2018

Работа посвящена проблеме определения математической зависимости влияния параметров технологического процесса на форму получаемого объекта. Непосредственно в статье рассмотрена проблема определения закономерности влияния параметров режима сварки на форму выпуклости сварного шва. Описана методика определения такой зависимости. В исследовании использовались ранее установленные регрессионные зависимости определения размеров выпуклости сварного шва (ширина шва (e) и высота выпуклости (g)) от параметров режима сварки в углекислом газе. Для этих размеров и рассчитанного значения площади наплавленного металла (F н ) на основе решения уравнений гидростатики определялись показатели формы выпуклости: угол перехода от выпуклости к основному металлу ( φ ) и капиллярная постоянная ( aк ). Проведен численный эксперимент при варьировании скорости подачи проволоки и напряжении дуги в диапазоне, который соответствует нормативным параметрам сварки и ремонта конструкций и деталей железнодорожного транспорта. Научная новизна заключается в том, что установлены регрессионные зависимости угла перехода от выпуклости к основному металлу ( φ ) и капиллярной постоянной ( aк ) от этих параметров режима сварки. Представленная в статье методика может быть применена для технологических процессов с образованием статически уравновешенного объема жидкой фазы, например при 3D-печати.

Authors: Pinilla León Juan Carlos , Da Silva Borges Natalia
Published: April 2018

Se condujo una investigación en Venezuela durante el año 2016 con el propósito de estudiar el comportamiento epidemiológico de Cystoisospora suis. Se incluyeron 67 granjas porcinas intensivas con antecedentes de diarrea neonatal. Para la determinación parasitaria se seleccionaron 572 camadas, así como  1,712 muestras fecales de cerdos adultos. En todas las granjas se aplicó una encuesta epidemiológica escrita. Todas las muestras se cultivaron en dicromato de potasio al 2.5% y posteriormente se procesaron con una técnica copro-parasitológica. Los resultados señalan que C. suis se encontró en 55 de 67 granjas (82.1 %) y 210 camadas (36.7 %), con los mayores valores de frecuencia en las dos primeras semanas de vida (P<0.05). Al referir los resultados en cerdos adultos se encontró correlación significativa (rho= 0.35; P<0.05) entre infección de lechones y cerdas, lo que sugiere que cerdas madres podrían actuar como fuentes de infección. El número de partos se encontró estadísticamente correlacionado con los valores de frecuencia en camadas y cerdas (P<0.05), lo que indica que, a mayor número de partos, disminuye la frecuencia. Probablemente estos hallazgos se asocian con mecanismos inmunológicos desconocidos. La infección en camadas menores a tres días de edad, presupone la existencia de alguna ruta alternativa de la infección. Se concluye que C. suis se encuentra ampliamente distribuida en la región central de Venezuela y que pudiera ser controlada mejorando las condiciones sanitarias de las granjas; sin embargo, mecanismos inmunológicos aún sin dilucidar podrían estar involucrados en la transmisión del protozoario.
