Authors: Perales Iván , Cuellar Juan Cristobal , Rostan Dario
Published: September 2021

Introducción: Los aneurismas de circulación posterior tienen mayor riesgo de provocar una hemorragia subaracnoidea en comparación con los de circulación anterior y tienen una baja frecuencia, dentro de este grupo, los del top de la basilar, tiene una prevalencia de 7% de los aneurismas cerebrales. Habitualmente, el tratamiento es por vía endovascular, pero en algunos casos, considerando el avance de la microcirugía y accesos minimamente invasivos, nos permite resolver los aneurismas de circuación posterior, esto ha permitido ampliar las indicaciones microquirúrgicas de aneurismas de circulación posterior. El abordaje minipterional, que constituye una variante del abordaje pterional clásico, ha ganado en popularidad en los últimos años, en gran parte debido a que es mínimamente invasivo y nos permite un abordaje a estructuras vascular tanto de circulación anterior como a algunas de la circulación posterior, con menor morbilidad que otros abordajes descritos previamente. Objetivo: Realizar una descripción anatómica del abordaje minipterional interfascial combinado con clinoidectomía anterior extradural, para el clipaje de aneurismas del top de la arteria basilar. Material y Métodos: Se realiza una descripción anatómica del acceso minipterional interfascial combinado con clinoidectomia anterior extradural, para clipaje del aneurisma del top de la basilar y se describe un caso de aneurisma del top de la basilar roto, resuelto por esta vía. Discusión: Para la patología aneurismática de circulación posterior, el tratamiento habitual es endovascular, sin embargo, existen casos, como aneurismas del top de la basilar, que en manos expertas, pueden ser resueltos con una baja morbilidad, por accesos minimamente invasivos. Conclusiones: El abordaje minipterional constituye una vía de acceso segura, minimamente invasiva y que nos permite abarcar una amplia variedad de localizaciones de patología aneurismática, combinada con la clinoidectomia anterior extradural, se logra acceder en forma segura y comoda al top de la basilar, con mínima morbilidad en los pacientes.

Предметом публикации является анализ динамики количества дорожно-транспортных происшествий в Воронежской области в 2017-2019 гг. на аварийно-опасных участках автодорог. Отмечен рост числа дорожно-транспортных происшествий в 2019 г., что может быть обусловлено неблагоприятной метеорологической обстановкой. Приведены статистические показатели Воронежского областного клинического центра медицины катастроф, характеризующие структуру травм при дорожно-транспортных происшествиях среди взрослого и детского населения, а также наличие осложнений и летальность на этапах эвакуации. Наиболее высокая летальность среди пострадавших с множественной травмой наблюдалась в 2018 г., что связано с преобладанием черепно-мозговых травм в структуре травматизма. Приведены характеристики структурной организации, оснащенности и локализации травмоцентров первого, второго и третьего уровней, регламентирующие объем оказания медицинской помощи пострадавшим. Рассматриваются вопросы маршрутизации пациентов с автодорожной травмой в травмоцентры Воронежской области с учетом тяжести состояния, наличия осложнений и критериев транспортабельности. На основании полученных данных можно сделать вывод, что в травмоцентры второго уровня доставляется наибольшее количество всех пострадавших, что связано с непосредственной близостью их расположения от наиболее аварийно-опасных участков автодорог

The subject of the publication is an analysis of the dynamics of the number of road accidents in the Voronezh region in 2017-2019 on accident-prone sections of roads. There was an increase in the number of road accidents in 2019, which may be due to the unfavorable meteorological situation. Statistical indicators of the Voronezh Regional Clinical Center for Disaster Medicine are presented, which characterize the structure of injuries in road accidents among adults and children, as well as the presence of complications and mortality at the stages of evacuation. The highest mortality rate among victims with multiple injuries was observed in 2018, which is associated with the predominance of craniocerebral injuries in the structure of injuries. The characteristics of the structural organization, equipment and localization of trauma centers of the first, second and third levels, regulating the scope of medical care for victims, are given. The issues of routing patients with road injuries to trauma centers in the Voronezh region are considered, taking into account the severity of the condition, the presence of complications and criteria for transportability. Based on the data obtained, it can be concluded that the largest number of all victims is delivered to the second-level trauma centers, which is due to the close proximity of their location to the most dangerous sections of roads
REHABILITATING THE EVICTED: AN EMPIRICAL STUDY OF THE STATE OF REHABILITATION IN THE OUTSKIRTS OF KOLKATA, WEST BENGAL
Authors: Kahini Palit
Published: September 2021

Incidence of Displacement has been a common issue in the journey of development, and the people who are displaced have often been offered rehabilitation in the form of low-income housing. But those rehabilitations are rarely the coveted solutions to the everyday problems of the poor, neither are they the dream housing complex the poor are made to believe. Rehabilitations are often planned arbitrarily, without proper planning and programme, and the result of the lack of sincerity of the authorities in rehabilitation of the displaced people are paid for by the poor, displaced people. The rehabilitated people, in most cases, are given small spaces to live, notwithstanding the size of the families. This leads to an overcrowded household, sometimes a family of six people are clumped together in a one room flat. The rehabilitated also face the problem of income in the new place, where the Government moved the people, but barely thought of any economic amenities in the surrounding area. The problem of clean drinking water and sanitation has also been noteworthy problems in the rehabilitated places. If displacement could not be avoided, and the question of rehabilitation follows, it is imperative for the authorities to plan fruitful rehabilitation programmes so that the people are not further impoverished, but instead, be empowered.

Pembangunan manusia menjadi salah satu fokus utama pemerintah dalam Rencana Pembangunan Jangka Menengah Nasional (RPJMN) 2020-2024. Hal tersebut tertuang pada agenda ketiga dari tujuh agenda pembangunan, yaitu “Meningkatkan Sumber Daya Manusia yang Berkualitas dan Berdaya Saing”. Tingkat pembangunan manusia pada suatu wilayah dapat tercermin melalui Indeks Pembangunan Manusia (IPM). Pada tahun 2020, IPM Provinsi Jawa Tengah bernilai 71,87. Meski sudah termasuk pada kategori tinggi (70-80), namun IPM Provinsi Jawa Tengah tersebut masih termasuk ke rentang bawah yang lebih mendekati kategori sedang (<70). Jika dibandingkan dengan provinsi lain, IPM Provinsi Jawa Tengah hanya menempati posisi ke-13 diantara 34 provinsi lainnya. Oleh karena itu, pada penelitian ini, pendekatan analisis deskriptif, analisis spasial, dan Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) akan digunakan untuk menentukan wilayah prioritas pembangunan manusia di Provinsi Jawa Tengah. Hasil analisis deskriptif menunjukkan bahwa wilayah kiri atau timur Provinsi Jawa Tengah memiliki persebaran nilai IPM yang cenderung lebih rendah. Perencanaan pembangunan manusia di Provinsi Jawa Tengah sebaiknya difokuskan pada ketiga MSA yang terbentuk, yaitu MSA Tegal, MSA Pekalongan, dan MSA Purworejo.

Terms of civil liability: are general theoretic approach
Authors: Kovalenko Inna
Published: September 2021

The article is sanctified to the questions of civil liability on the legislation of Ukraine.

Taking these theoretical positions for basis, it is possible to assert that the normative founding of legal responsibility envisages the presence of legal norms, that determine possible and necessary behavior of the subject of legal relationships, embargo on certain behavior, and system of approvals and legal binding overs that determine the process of realization of responsibility. It is marked that traditionally a range of problems of responsibility was of interest such fields of law, as civil, administrative, ecological, domestic. Summarizing the above-mentioned in the article, it is possible to establish, that legal responsibility, including civil legal in whatever form she came forward always is direct influence on an offender. The substantial line of responsibility - it so to say perceptible bears by the face of negative consequences of offence in form privations of the personal, organizational or property order, regardless of what her measures will be realized: imprisonment, compensation of harm or something other. It stipulates the orientation of responsibility actually on the face of offender, stipulates penalty, punitive character of legal responsibility keywords: legal responsibility, offence, guilt, founding, inflicted harm, socially dangerous behavior.

Thus, it costs to consider the composition of civil offence, that includes for itself the presence of the inflicted harm, unlegality of behavior of malefactor, causal connection between behavior of person and harmful result, guilt of malefactor the condition of civil responsibility. Thus, it costs consider that illegal there can be actions that violate the norms of legislation and equitable rights of citizens, and illegal - only those actions that violate the norm of law.

Legal regulation of the institution of the partiesfrom the standpoint of the principle of balance of civil procedural legal relations
Authors: Shutenko Оksana
Published: September 2021

The modern science of civil procedural law is experiencing a new stage of understanding the institution of the parties, which is associated with the study of the principle of balance of civil procedural law.

The basis of non-priority participation in the process of the plaintiff and the defendant determines the legislative regulation of the institution of the parties. This rule should be considered as one of the manifestations of a fair trial, as it is a manifestation of the balance of interests of the parties during the proceedings. In the spirit of this principle, it is proposed to improve the procedures for involving accomplices and replacing an improper party in civil proceedings.

The principle of the balance of civil procedural legal relations is, first, that the amount of legal interest of the subject of the process is directly proportional to the scope of his procedural rights. Thus, the purpose of civil process - restoration of the broken right is reached.

Meanwhile, the legislator does not always manage to comply with the relevant legal regulations. In particular, the rules relating to the institution of procedural complicity and replacement of the improper party.

The mistake of the legislative regulation of this mechanism is, in our opinion, a misunderstanding of the principle of equality of arms: the court cannot involve the co-plaintiff, and therefore cannot involve the co-defendant. The different nature of the institutions of the plaintiff and the defendant does not allow the same approach to legal regulation. This inequality is compensated by other principles, rules and institutions of civil procedural law. But the starting point is that at the beginning of the case the plaintiff attacks, initiates the process, and the defendant is involved in the process.

Keywords: civil process, parties of civil process, principle of balance, legal anthropology, procedural complicity, replacement of improper party.
Ok Google: Using virtual assistants for data collection in psychological and behavioral research
Authors: Sprengholz Philipp , Betsch Cornelia
Published: September 2021

Because of the increasing popularity of voice-controlled virtual assistants, such as Amazon’s Alexa and Google Assistant, they should be considered a new medium for psychological and behavioral research. We developed Survey Mate, an extension of Google Assistant, and conducted two studies to analyze the reliability and validity of data collected through this medium. In the first study, we assessed validated procrastination and shyness scales as well as social desirability indicators for both the virtual assistant and an online questionnaire. The results revealed comparable internal consistency and construct and criterion validity. In the second study, five social psychological experiments, which have been successfully replicated by the Many Labs projects, were successfully reproduced using a virtual assistant for data collection. Comparable effects were observed for users of both smartphones and smart speakers. Our findings point to the applicability of virtual assistants in data collection independent of the device used. While we identify some limitations, including data privacy concerns and a tendency toward more socially desirable responses, we found that virtual assistants could allow the recruitment of participants who are hard to reach with established data collection techniques, such as people with visual impairment, dyslexia, or lower education. This new medium could also be suitable for recruiting samples from non-Western countries because of its wide availability and easily adaptable language settings. It could also support an increase in the generalizability of theories in the future.
Dutch sensory modality norms
Authors: Speed Laura J. , Brybaert Marc
Published: September 2021

Many words are strongly connected to the senses, such as vision, taste, and touch. In order to facilitate research on language and the senses, large sets of linguistic stimuli and their corresponding measures of sensory associations should be available. To aid in such investigations, we present a new set of sensory modality norms for over 24,000 Dutch words. The sensory norms comprise perceptual strength ratings in six perceptual modalities: audition, gustation, haptics, olfaction, vision, and interoception. The new norms improve on existing Dutch sensory norms in three ways: 1) they significantly expand on the number of words rated; 2) they include multiple word classes; 3) they add a new perceptual modality: interoception. We show that the sensory norms are able to predict word processing behavior and outperform existing ratings of sensory experience: concreteness and imageability. The data are available via the Open Science Framework (https://osf.io/ubvy2) and serve as a valuable resource for research into the relationship between language and perception.

Authors: WANG JIAPENG , BI ZHENJU , CHEN ZHANGJING , YAN LI , LEI YAFANG
Published: September 2021

The cinnamaldehyde, salicylic acid, stearolic acid and citric acid were plant-derived organic compounds that can be activated to fungi, that could degrade the wood in long term. The compounds with concentrations of 3%, 5% and 7% assisted by different dispersants were impregnated into poplar (Populus nigra L.) specimens by the vacuum-pressure method. After that, weight percentage gain (WPG), decay resistance against white-rot fungi (Trametes versicolor) and brown-rot fungi (Gloeophyllum trabeum), color change, dimensional stability and mechanical properties including modulus of elasticity (MOE) and modulus of rupture (MOR) were measured. The results indicated that cinnamaldehyde impregnated poplar showed antifungi activity against both G. trabeumand T. versicolor, and citric acid impregnated poplar showed antifungi activity against G. trabeum. The color of poplar specimens before and after impregnated cinnamaldehyde and citric acid had a little change, dimensional stability had been improved and mechanical properties especially for MOR increased significantly.

Published: September 2021

The publication is focused on the effect of ultra low and high temperature on enzymatic pretreatment of beech wood (Fagus sylvaticaL.). Two fractions < 0.7 mm and 1.0 –2.5 mm of disintegrated branches sawdust were used for experiments. Glucose and xylose yields were measured after 24, 48, and 72 hours of enzymatic hydrolysis with 15 % load of the enzyme measured to total cellulose content. The influence of freezing under -80°C and boiling under pressure at +160°C on samples before enzymatic hydrolysis was observed. Mutual combination of boiling under pressure to obtain the maximum water uptake and subsequent freezing was used to better understand the process of cell destruction. The results show that the boiling pretreatment has a positive influence on thetotal monosaccharide yields and the subsequent freezing may slightly increase these yields even further. The maximum monosaccharide conversion (73.24%) was achieved using the fraction < 0.7 mm.

Published: September 2021

Given the carcinogenicity of hardwood dust, the aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of the photometric method for different types of woodworking machines and its application in determining the mass concentration of inhalable dust for raw and dry hardwoods. In addition to the optical part of the device, the input part of the measuring device contains the Institute of Occupational Medicine (IOM) inhalable dust filter holder. This correlation of gravimetric and photometric methods in determining the dust mass concentration showed that photometry underestimates the mass concentration measured gravimetrically. The results of this study recommend the application of a correction factor 2 for a timber band saw and a correction factor 3 for circular saws in determining the mass concentration of hardwood dust by the photometric method. It was showed that photometry can be used if the correction factor of the optical device has been previously tested for specific wood processing place.

Among the major cardiovascular risk factors an important place is occupied by dyslipidemia. There is clear evidence that increased serum total cholesterol and low density fraction of cholesterol (LDLc) are associated with increased risk of coronary and cerebrovascular events. The therapeutic intervention on hyperlipidemia improves cardiovascular morbi-mortality. The most important class of drugs used in the last three decades to lower cholesterol is represented by HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, generically called statins. Their benefit, regarding cardiovascular diseases, has been proven both in primary and in the secondary prevention. With a good tolerability and a good safety profile, statins remain the first line choice in dyslipidemic and even in normolipidemic patients, but with an increased risk of cardiovascular events.

Antibiotics are prescribed frequently for common childhood infections and Antibiotic-Associated Diarrhea (AAD) appear often in this children. AAD is unexplained diarrhea occurring between 2 hours to 2 months after starting antibiotics, where diarrhea is defined as more than 2 unformed stools for ≥2 days. Children younger than 6 years and type of antibiotics are the two risk factors identified for AAD. The antibiotics with which AAD was associated were: amoxycillin-clavulanate, cephalosporins, macrolides, trimethoprim-sulphamethoxazole and penicillin G and V. The most commonly mechanism for AAD is intestinal overgrowth with pathogenic microorganisms, especially Clostridium difficile, following alterations to the normal intestinal flora induced by antibiotics. Symptoms may range from a mild form of liquid diarrhea to a severe form of pseudomembranous colitis with abdominal pain, local, and systemic inflammation and a typical history of diarrhea that is chronologically related with antibiotic administration. Most of the AAD would respond to only discontinuation or change of the antibiotic, but in Clostridium difficile infection oral metronidazole or oral vancomycin are drugs of choice. Probiotics are increasingly used for prevention and treatment of diarrhea associated antibiotics in children.

Mass distribution of different infectious diseases appears even more likely in dentistry than other medical specialities. The purpose of the study is to examine different impressions with alginate materials in order to demonstrate the contamination with different pathogens. Material and method. 63 patients were included in this study. They required specific prosthetic treatment. Preliminary impression were obtained with irreversible hydrocolloid material and microbiologically tested shorthy after removal from the mouth, after washed throughly with cold water and after decontamination with specific desinfectants. Results. Microbiologic records on the alginate impressions in different stages, revealed a reduction in number of bacteria, but not completely absence, regardless of the type of decontamination substance. Conclusions. The presence of different pathogens on the surface of irreversible hydrocolloid impresions is certain. There are residual bacteria which differ from one substance to another, irrespective of cleaning stages and decontamination materials used in daily manipulation of dental impresion. Even if time consuming, decontamination of alginate impression is compulsory in dentistry.

Malignant fibrous histiocytoma is also known as malignant fibrous xanthoma and is a form of neoplasm with uncertain histological origin. This tumour is rich in histiocytes and fibroblasts. MFH represent one on the most common type of soft tissue sarcoma but it has a low incidence in general population. We report the case of a 60 years old male patient, presented at the University Emergency Hospital Bucharest for a tumoral mass on the left hemithorax, in evolution for about 1 year, with an accelerated grow in the last 6 months. This case is typically because the patient is a male and he is 60 years old (range 50-70 years). In the same time, there are some particularities that make the case special and determine us to draw some conclusions about the management of this pathology. Histiocytoma represent a rare tumoral pathology and it is difficult to do a differential diagnostic preoperatively. Surgery is the cornerstone of treatment for all soft tissues. The goal of surgery is to eradicate disease in the affected area. All excisions of tumoral mass must be with resection margins for oncological security to avoid the possible complications.

Introduction. Specific allergen immunotherapy (STI) is the causal treatment of asthma. SIT gives a specific response to the changing LT response (deviation of the immune response), induction of anergy (decrease of LTh2), induces tolerance and modifies the inflammatory response. Pollen produces in our country seasonal allergic asthma in children and adults. Materials and methods. Our study was conducted using grass pollen extracts and comprised a total of 47 children with asthma, allergic to pollens, aged 5-14. Administration was seasonal (November to April), oral (sublingual solutions). It was indicated in the treatment of children with asthma and rhinitis with definite diagnosis where eviction was not possible. There have been previously detailed history and a careful clinical examination, skin prick tests to pollens with intense response, more elevated IgE, and spirometry confirming bronchospasm. Grass pollen extracts with initial low doses were used, gradually increasing the amount and concentration, and a gradual decrease, at a total of 6 months per year, with a duration of three years. Discussion. The evaluation was performed by clinical follow-up (symptom score and drug consumption), spirometry and by improving the quality of life assessment. There were no serious side effects during treatment. Conclusion. SIT in children with pollens allergic asthma is the causal therapeutic method; treating asthmatic children over 3 years old; reduces asthma symptoms to extinction; decreases other medical needs; improves quality of life of the child; no side effect were distinguished.

Melatonin is a hormone produced by the epiphyseal gland. Its physiologic functions have been extensively studied during the last years, its cyclic secretion seeming associated with multiple normal biological processes. Its correlation with autism has long been researched by some authors with the purpose to find a better therapeutically approach for a relative common disease of childhood. This paper reviews the accumulated scientific data in order to better understand the possible melatonin use in autistic symptoms treatment.

Objectives. The aim of the study was to compare the postoperative and oncologic outcomes of small bowel versus gastric surgery for gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). Background. The feasibility of the small bowel resection for GIST has been demonstrated; however, its impact on outcomes, particularly its oncologic safety for tumors greater than 5 cm, remains unknown. Methods. Among 93 patients treated for a stromal tumor in SUUB between 2001 and 2015, patients who underwent primary resection for a gGIST smaller than 20 cm (N = 66), by either small bowel (group S, n = 28) or gastric surgery (group G, n = 38), were compared. Multivariable analyses and propensity score matching were used to compensate for differences in baseline characteristics. Results. In hospital mortality and morbidity rates in groups S and G were 0.0% versus 2.6% (P = 0.086) and 10.7% vs 18.4% (P = 0.004), respectively. Small bowel resection was independently protective against in hospital morbidity (odds ratio 0.54, P = 0.014). The rate of R0 resection was 96.4% in group S and 92.1% in group G (P = 0.103). After 1:1 propensity score matching (n= 22), the groups were comparable according to age, sex, tumor location and size, mitotic index, American Society of Anaesthesiology score, and the extent of surgical resection. After adjustment for BMI, overall morbidity (9.1% vs 19.6%; P = 0.005), surgical morbidity (4.5% vs 9.1%; P = 0.048), and medical morbidity (4.5% vs 13.6%; P = 0.01) were significantly lower in group S. Five year recurrence- free survival was significantly better in group S (89.3% vs 82.6%; P = 0.011). In tumors greater than 5 cm, in hospital morbidity and 5 year recurrence- free survival were similar between the groups (P = 0.255 and P = 0.423, respectively). Conclusions. Small bowel resection for GISTs is associated with favourable short term outcomes without compromising oncologic results.
