INTRODUCCIÓN: La estenosis de la arteria renal es la complicación vascular más frecuente del trasplante renal y una de las principales causas de pérdida del injerto y muerte prematura en los pacientes trasplantados. A pesar de ser potencialmente tratable, es frecuentemente infradiagnosticada, por lo que su diagnóstico precoz y manejo terapéutico adecuado resulta fundamental para evitar la pérdida de función renal.
 
MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Analizamos retrospectivamente el caso de dos pacientes de 72 años trasplantados en nuestro centro en 2017. Ambos pacientes, con antecedentes de hipertensión arterial, cardiopatía isquémica crónica y enfermedad renal crónica terminal secundaria a nefroangioesclerosis y glomerulonefritis membranosa, respectivamente; presentaron un empeoramiento de la creatinina en el postoperatorio inmediato del trasplante renal. Ante este hallazgo y la evidencia de velocidades pico sistólicas >200 cm/s en la ecografía-doppler se sospechó una estenosis de la arteria del injerto, posteriormente confirmada con angiografía y angio-TC, respectivamente. Por lo que se realizó una revascularización percutánea e implante de stent.
 
RESULTADOS: Se realizó la angioplastia con balón y colocación de stent, bajo anestesia local, obteniendo un buen resultado morfológico, sin complicaciones inmediatas. Tras el procedimiento ambos pacientes presentaron una mejoría progresiva de la función renal manteniendo un buen ritmo de diuresis, siendo dados de alta a los 8 y 11 días del mismo. Desde entonces, la función renal de ambos pacientes se ha mantenido estable presentando a los 12 meses un filtrado glomerular alrededor de 67 mL/min/1.73m2 y 60 mL/min/1.73m2, respectivamente.  Sin evidencia de complicaciones tras 14 meses del procedimiento.
 
CONCLUSIONES: La angioplastia con balón y colocación de stent en la estenosis de la arteria renal en el trasplante es una técnica segura y efectiva. Sin embargo, es necesaria una elevada experiencia para disminuir el número de complicaciones y optimizar los resultados de esta técnica.

Responses of Economic News on Asset Prices: A Study of Indian Stock Index Futures
Authors: Banerjee Ameet Kumar
Published: November 2020

The study examines the role of economic news surprises on the volatility of the returns of the Indian Index futures market. Theoretical literature posits that news arrivals influence price discovery. In similar lines, we investigated the relationship between economic news releases, trading activity variables, and returns volatility. We find that economic news surprises and trading activity variables significantly affect returns volatility. However, among volume and news surprises, economic news surprises are much stronger informational signals, and the news surprises effects are found seemingly asymmetric in the index futures contract.
Expected economic effect after installing variator for main engine cooling system pump
Authors: Pokusaev Mikhail Nikolaevich , Trifonov Alexei Viktorovich , Ilyina Elena Georgievna
Published: November 2020

The article describes the process of increasing power efficiency of the ship’s main engines along with reducing power losses on the drive of auxiliary mechanisms. The most common ship cooling systems with two circuits of fresh water and seawater have a disadvantage: the power consumed by the external circuit pump drive does not change when the temperature of the cooling seawater changes. The amount of energy taken from the effective power of the engine by the pump is significant. The technical solution proposed allows to regulate the speed of the mounted pump and to reduce fuel consumption. The chart of the variator in the seawater pump drive of the engine 8ChSP13/14 has been shown. The variator with automatic control is installed between the pump and the engine power take-off shaft, which helps to regulate the speed of the impeller for normal engine cooling. The maximal effect of the proposed modernization can be obtained under the vessel's operation with the seawater temperature below the calculated one. The description of the experimental stand developed in the laboratory of Astrakhan State Technical University, which is simulating the cooling system of the marine engine 8ChSP13 / 14, has been given. The graph of the change in torque versus time is illustrated at the impeller speed of 1 800 rpm. It has been stated that the mechanical characteristics of the pump for different operating modes obtained as a result of experimental studies allow to assess the economic effect from reducing fuel consumption. The results of economic design of installing a variable speed drive in the cooling system of a marine engine are presented as a case study of the vessel Moscow-169 (Astrakhan passenger motor ship).

Published: November 2020

Preface :Patchouli Oil requires toxicity testing for safety before we can use it widely. It causes side effects such as nausea, vomiting and loss of appetite in some people. Determination of lethal concentration 50% (LC50) in the early stages of zebrafish embryos development will provide an easier, faster and precise prediction of toxicity. At a certain dose, it can cause impairment and death toward organisms. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine LC50 of Patchouli Oil in carboximethyl cellulose emulsifier towards zebrafish embryo (Danio rerio).Method :Laboratory experimental study was using zebrafish embryos at 2 hours post fertilization. The total of 160 embryos were used and divided into 8 groups, i.e.; Negative control (KN) was given the embryonic fluid, positive control 1 was given 5000 ppm of patchouli oil (KP1), positive control was given 5000 ppm of CMC (KP2), and 5 treatment groups, i.e.; concentration of 10 ppm (P1), 30 ppm (P2), 60 ppm (P3), 90 ppm (P4) and 120 ppm (P5) of Patchouli oil which was emulsified in CMC. The study was conducted with 3 times repetition. Data collection was done by calculating total of embryo’s deaths for each treatment at 24-72 hours of exposure. Data were analyzed using Regression Probit Analysis.Results :Mortality in the group of KN was 1.6%, KP1 was 98.3% and KP2 was 0%.

PANDANGAN TEOLOGIS TENTANG BUDAYA PEMALI DALAM PENDIDIKAN KARAKTER ANAK DI SMPNEGERI 1 SESENAPADANG
Authors: Yusri
Published: November 2020

Pemali adalah salah satu pola pengajaran yang diberikan orang tua kepada anaknya. Pendidik yang terutama dan pertama bagi anak adalah orang tua. Dari orang tua anak banyak belajar tentang kehidupan. Pengajaran yang diberikan untuk membentuk norma, perilaku, serta tatanan hidup dalam masyarakat sesuai dengan norma dan kearifan lokal masyarakatnya. Oleh karena itu, ditinjau dari segi makna budaya yang berisi nasehat ini, yang dipedomani oleh masyarakat dalam mendidik anak-anaknya pada pengenalan karakter yang baik dalam hal sopan santun yang menjadi prinsip utama dalam pengajaran. Akibatnya anak-anak yang menghidupi dan mengamalkan ajaran ini, dapat terlihat dari tingkah lakunya sehari-hari bagaimana memposisikan dirinya ketika bertemu dengan orang yang lebih tua. Dalam pendidikan formal ada peraturan dan tata tertib sekolah yaitu menghormati guru dan orang tua (janji siswa). Jadi, anak yang terbiasa menghidupi pemali pasti akan memiliki karakter yang dapat menghargai dan menghormati gurunya atau yang lebih tua.Tujuan pemali yaitu sebagai salah satu pola pendidikan penanaman nilai-nilai moral (kebiasaan budaya) dari orang tua kepada anak-anaknya secara turun temurun. Tujuan pemanis juga mengubah perilaku seseorang ke arah yang lebih baik, karena pemali yang pertama kali digunakan orang tua untuk mendidik anak-anaknya sebelum mengenal pendidikan formal atau selolah.Hubungan tujuan pemali dengan pendidikan karakter yaitu, bertujuan untuk membentuk karakter anak dengan pedoman pada kearifan lokal budaya masyarakat yang telah diajarkan berulang-ulang dan secara turun-temurun. Jadi pemali berkaitan dengan pendidikan karakter karena mengajarkan tentang kesopanan dan juga pendidikan karakter mengajarkan tentang nilai-nilai moral seseorang.Pemali berperan penting sebagai media pendidikan budi pekerti di masyarakat. Pemali diajarkan ke anak agar tidak sembarang berbuat dan dapat tau bagaimana cara beretika yang baik. Pemali sebagai pengendalian diri dalam bertindak, dimana orang tua mengajarkan ke anak-anaknya tentang bertutur kata dan berperilaku dengan mengedepankan tentang nilai-nilai moral dalam berinteraksi terhadap sesama. Dapat juga dimaknai sebagai bentuk kehati-hatian masyarakat dengan belajar dari masa lalu sehingga kejadian masa lalu tidak berulang di masa yang akan datang.Pendidikan sangat berperan penting dalam kehidupan dan kemajuan umat manusia. Karena pendidikan merupakan suatu kekuatan yang dinamis dalam kehidupan setiap individu, yang berpengaruh pada perkembangan fisiknya, daya jiwa (akal, rasa, dan kehendak), sosialnya dan moralitasnya. Dengan kata lain, pendidikan merupakan suatu kekuatan yang dinamis dalam mempengaruhi kemampuan, kepribadian, dan kehidupan individu dalam pertemuan dan pergaulannya dengan sesama dan dunia, serta dalam hubungannya dengan Tuhan. Jadi, pemali dan pendidikan karakter sangat berkaitan di mana mengajarkan tentang nilai-nilai moral dan budi pekerti. Juga mengubah pola tingkah laku seseorang ke arah yang lebih baik untuk mencapai cita-cita masa depannya.
BERBAGAI MANFAAT DOKUMENTASI KEPERAWATAN DALAM ASUHAN KEPERAWATAN DI RUMAH SAKIT

Published: November 2020

Dokumentasi keperawatan merupakan bukti pencatatan dan pelaporan yang dimiliki perawat dalam melakukan catatan keperawatan yang berguna untuk kepentingan klien, perawat dan tim kesehatan dalam memberikan pelayanan kesehatan. Dokumentasi keperawatan sangatlah penting, akan tetapi pada kenyataannya masih banyak perawat yang kurang mengetahui dokumentasi keperawatan yang baik dan benar. Perawat memiliki peran penting dalam melakukan dokumentasi keperawatan. Penggunaan dokumentasi keperawatan berbasis elektronik sangat efektif bagi perawat (Cassano, 2018). Hal ini sejalan dengan hasil penelitian Padila et al., (2018) dimana hasil penelitian terdapat rancangan sistem program yang memiliki keunggulan untuk mengirim data pelaporan dokumentasi medis pasien yang meliputi keluhan utama, tipe penyakit yang dirasakannya (ringan, sedang dan berat), visualisasi data secara image, sound dan text, bahkan video dapat digunakan sebagai alat detektor kesehatan pasien berbasis digital melalui video mail, dan riwayat kesehatan keluarga dengan teknik multimedia medical records yang terkoneksi dengan pusat layanan kesehatan .Diharapkan bidang perawatan dapat melengkapi dokumentasi keperawatan dengan format yang sama, memberi kesempatan perawat untuk melanjutkan kuliah dan mengikuti pelatihan askep serta bertukar informasi atau gagasan antar ruang rawat.

Are we too clean? A History and Analysis of the Hygiene Hypothesis
Authors: Steed Riley Joel
Published: November 2020

Since the second half of the 20th century, the incidence of atopic disease has been on the rise. Allergies and rhinitis have become so common that some have called it an epidemic (Strachan, 1989). Initial research into the reasons for the rapid increase was done by David P Strachan, and he proposed the “hygiene hypothesis,” a theory claiming that early childhood infections can protect us against atopic diseases later in life (Strachan, 1989). Subsequent research found an interaction between T-helper 1 and T-helper 2 cells that, for many years, was considered to be the mechanism by which the hygiene hypothesis functioned (Romagnani, 1992). Eventually, it was discovered that this interaction did not work exactly as previously thought, and Graham A. Rook introduced a new theory to match the more recent research. Rook proposed the “old friends” hypothesis, which suggested that certain microbes, which evolved alongside humans, were responsible for protecting us against atopic disease (Rook et al., 2004). According to Rook, modern lifestyles have eliminated many of those microbes from our normal flora, and that explains the recent rise in atopic disease (Rook et al., 2004). The “old friends” hypothesis is now the prevalent atopic disease theory in epidemiology, and has helped improve both public and scientific understanding of the relationship between infection, hygiene, and atopy (Stiesma, et al., 2015).
Reproduction performance of sows inseminated with stress gene-free semen given probiotic- supplemented feed
Authors: Abela Julius
Published: November 2020

This study generally aimed to assess the effect of supplementation with various levels of a novel product containing probiotic and yeast cells, a feed enzyme, short-chain oligosaccharides, and herbal extracts (Farmer Peck’s Performance Booster®) and the use of halothane free gene semen on two successive parities in sows in selected farms in Leyte. Randomized complete block design (RCBD) with treatment used in T0 – (in-feed antibiotics, Og probiotic/kilogram feed and Al using semen from farm’s boar); T1 – (0 antibiotics, 2g probiotic/kilogram feed and Al with halothane free gene semen) and T2 – (0 antibiotics, 3g probiotic/kilogram feed and Al with halothane free gene semen). The study results showed that sow-litter performance of artificially inseminated sows using halothane free gene semen in two farrowing seasons was significantly higher in T1 and T2 groups than that of To group as affected by probiotic supplementation. Probiotic supplementation, both at 2g kg-1 (T1) and 3g kg-1 (T2) of feed is effective in improving both litter and sow performance. The cost of using halothane free gene semen for Al is less as compared to using semen from the farm’s boar, and the cost of using probiotic at two levels as feed additive is relatively lower than using antibiotics based on the pre-weaning mortality, litter size, and litter weight at weaning. The use of halothane free gene semen can now be widely used in the different piggery farms. Including the use of probiotic supplement for both the sows and piglets.

Effect of 7-Nitroindazole, a Neuronal Nitric Oxide Synthase Inhibitor, on Behavioral and Physiological Parameters
Authors: BROŽÍČKOVÁ C. , MIKULECKÁ A. , OTÁHAL J.
Published: November 2020

The role of brain derived nitric oxide in the physiology and behavior remains disputable. One of the reasons of the controversies might be systemic side effects of nitric oxide synthase inhibitors. Therefore, under nNOS inhibition by 7-nitroindazole (7-NI) we carried out recordings of blood gasses, blood pressure and spontaneous EEG in conscious adult rats. Locomotion and spontaneous behavior were assessed in an open field. In addition skilled walking and limb coordination were evaluated using a ladder rung walking test. The blood gas analysis revealed a significant increase in pCO2 180 min and 240 min after the application of 7-NI. The power and entropy decreased simultaneously with a shift of the mean frequency of the spontaneous EEG toward slow oscillations after 7-NI treatment. The thresholds of evoked potentials underwent a significant drop and a trend towards a slight increase in the I-O curve slope was observed. 7-NI significantly suppressed open field behavior expressed as distance moved, exploratory rearing and grooming. As for the ladder rung walking test the 7-NI treated animals had more errors in foot placement indicating impairment in limb coordination. Therefore our findings suggest that 7-NI increased cortical excitability and altered some physiological and behavioral parameters.

Authors: Uhm Ju-Yeon , Kim Myoung Soo
Published: November 2020

Quality of life of parents of children with chronic disease is important for disease self-management. This study aimed to identify predictors of quality of life among mothers of children with type 1 diabetes. A cross-sectional study was conducted. A total of 208 mothers of children with type 1 diabetes were recruited from an online health community. Online health community collective empowerment and social support, diabetes self-efficacy, diabetes-related burden, and quality of life were measured. A multiple regression analysis was conducted to determine predictive factors for quality of life. Multiple regression analysis showed that diabetes-related burden and the child’s age were predictors of quality of life, and total variance explained by the model was 64.1% using two factors. In mothers of younger children, it is important to reduce the diabetes-related burden. Factors that increase the diabetes-related burden should be identified, and strategies to reduce the diabetes-related burden must be established.
Improved Transglycosylation by a Xyloglucan-Active α-l-Fucosidase from Fusarium graminearum
Authors: Zeuner Birgitte , Vuillemin Marlene , Holck Jesper , Muschiol Jan , Meyer Anne S.
Published: November 2020

Fusarium graminearum produces an α-l-fucosidase, FgFCO1, which so far appears to be the only known fungal GH29 α-l-fucosidase that catalyzes the release of fucose from fucosylated xyloglucan. In our quest to synthesize bioactive glycans by enzymatic catalysis, we observed that FgFCO1 is able to catalyze a transglycosylation reaction involving transfer of fucose from citrus peel xyloglucan to lactose to produce 2′-fucosyllactose, an important human milk oligosaccharide. In addition to achieving maximal yields, control of the regioselectivity is an important issue in exploiting such a transglycosylation ability successfully for glycan synthesis. In the present study, we aimed to improve the transglycosylation efficiency of FgFCO1 through protein engineering by transferring successful mutations from other GH29 α-l-fucosidases. We investigated several such mutation transfers by structural alignment, and report that transfer of the mutation F34I from BiAfcB originating from Bifidobacterium longum subsp. infantis to Y32I in FgFCO1 and mutation of D286, near the catalytic acid/base residue in FgFCO1, especially a D286M mutation, have a positive effect on FgFCO1 transfucosylation regioselectivity. We also found that enzymatic depolymerization of the xyloglucan substrate increases substrate accessibility and in turn transglycosylation (i.e., transfucosylation) efficiency. The data include analysis of the active site amino acids and the active site topology of FgFCO1 and show that transfer of point mutations across GH29 subfamilies is a rational strategy for targeted protein engineering of a xyloglucan-active fungal α-l-fucosidase.

The burden of aspergillosis, especially Chronic Pulmonary Aspergillosis, is increasingly recognized, and the increasing presence of azole-resistant environmental Aspergillus fumigatus has been highlighted as a health risk. However, a sizable minority of aspergillosis is caused by Aspergillus flavus, which is assumed to be sensitive to azoles but is infrequently included in surveillance. We conducted environmental sampling at 150 locations in a rural province of southern Vietnam. A. flavus isolates were identified morphologically, their identity was confirmed by sequencing of the beta-tubulin gene, and then they were tested for susceptibility to azoles and amphotericin B according to EUCAST methodologies. We found that over 85% of A. flavus isolates were resistant to at least one azole, and half of them were resistant to itraconazole. This unexpectedly high prevalence of resistance demands further investigation to determine whether it is linked to agricultural azole use, as has been described for A. fumigatus. Clinical correlation is required, so that guidelines can be adjusted to take this information into account.
The Determinants of the Performance of Precious Metal Mutual Funds
Authors: Tsolas Ioannis E.
Published: November 2020

The aim of this paper is to assess the efficiency of a set of 62 precious metal mutual funds (PMMFs) and to explain performance differences between funds using weighted additive data envelopment analysis (DEA) and Tobit regression, respectively. The contribution of this paper is twofold: to provide for the first-time metrics of the relative performance of PMMFs using a particular weighted additive model, namely the range-adjusted measure (RAM), and to explain the performance of the funds by the use of a Tobit model. Results do not suggest positive linkages between RAM-based and standard fund performance metrics (Sharpe ratio and Jensen’s alpha). Moreover, for the sample inefficient funds the mean–variance performance hypothesis does not hold. In addition, fund performance based on RAM can be explained by the persistence of the fund and the beta coefficient.

We report the synthesis and characterization of pure ZnO, pure CeO2, and ZnO:CeO2 mixed oxide thin films dip-coated on glass substrates using a sol-gel technique. The structural properties of as-prepared thin film are investigated using the XRD technique. In particular, pure ZnO thin film is found to exhibit a hexagonal structure, while pure CeO2 thin film is found to exhibit a fluorite cubic structure. The diffraction patterns also show the formation of mixed oxide materials containing well-dispersed phases of semi-crystalline nature from both constituent oxides. Furthermore, optical properties of thin films are investigated by performing UV–Vis spectrophotometer measurements. In the visible region, transmittance of all investigated thin films attains values as high as 85%. Moreover, refractive index of pure ZnO film was found to exhibit values ranging between 1.57 and 1.85 while for CeO2 thin film, it exhibits values ranging between 1.73 and 2.25 as the wavelength of incident light decreases from 700 nm to 400 nm. Remarkably, refractive index of ZnO:CeO2 mixed oxide-thin films are tuned by controlling the concentration of CeO2 properly. Mixed oxide-thin films of controllable refractive indices constitute an important class of smart functional materials. We have also investigated the optoelectronic and dispersion properties of ZnO:CeO2 mixed oxide-thin films by employing well-established classical models. The melodramatic boost of optical and optoelectronic properties of ZnO:CeO2 mixed oxide thin films establish a strong ground to modify these properties in a skillful manner enabling their use as key potential candidates for the fabrication of scaled optoelectronic devices and thin film transistors.

The characteristics of natural light are mostly collected through specialized measuring equipment, such as a spectroradiometer, and some suggested measurement methods through a small RGB sensor. However, specialized measuring equipment presents difficulty in its high cost, and the RGB-sensor-based method has the limitation of being unable to measure the wavelength characteristics of natural light that are needed to implement lighting that supports circadian rhythms. This paper presents a method for calculating the short-wavelength-ratio-based color temperature of natural light in real time. First, an analysis of the correlation between the characteristics of natural light collected through a spectroradiometer was performed to determine the factors that were needed to accurately measure the color temperature of natural light. Then, the short-wavelength ratio of natural light was calculated through chromaticity coordinates (x and y), which are output values of the RGB sensor, and an equation for calculating the color temperature of natural light was derived through the short-wavelength ratio. Furthermore, after producing an RGB-sensor-based device, the derived equation was applied to calculate the color temperature of real-time natural light that reflects the wavelength characteristics. Then, as a result of the performance evaluation of the proposed method, the color temperature of natural light was accurately calculated within 1% of the average error rate.

Abstract

 

This article aims to reveal the deconstruction meaning of the ideal women concept in film Pengabdi Setan through the characters of Mother and Grandmother. Jacques Derrida's concept is used in this study to see how text can be interpreted not only in a single meaning but also another meaning, as a main characteristic of deconstruction is to reveal the meanings that are marginalized, ignored, and hidden. We use deconstruction reading methodology to reveal the hidden meanings in the film Pengabdi Setan (2017). By deconstructing a concept of women which presented by mother and grandmother figures, we found several results were obtained such as the concept of ideal women that admitted in our society still shackles women so that if a woman does not conform to the ideal concept prevailing in society, then what will happen is a catastrophe. In Indonesian society which is still strongly conduct to patriarchal values, women are often alienated and negatively stigmatized if they cannot bear children. Reproductive tasks that are carried out by women are shown and regulated according to the wishes of society, for example when she should get pregnant and how many children will be conceived and born. The mother has to take care of her husband, children, and household. Society has constructed women as ideal figures who serve their husbands and work fully in the domestic area, such as taking care of kitchens, wells, and mattresses.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengungkap pemaknaan dekonstruksi konsep perempuan ideal dalam film Pengabdi Setan melalui tokoh ibu dan nenek. Konsep Jacques Derrida digunakan dalam penelitian ini untuk melihat bagaimana teks mampu dimaknai tidak hanya dalam pemaknaan tunggal karena inti dari dekonstruksi adalah menyingkap makna-makna yang dipinggirkan, diabaikan, dan disembunyikan. Penulis menggunakan metodologi pembacaan dekonstruksi untuk menyingkap makna yang tersembunyi dalam film Pengabdi Setan (2017). Dengan mendekonstruksi konsep perempuan yang dihadirkan melalui tokoh ibu dan nenek, didapat beberapa hasil penelitian, di antaranya konsep perempuan ideal yang berkembang di masyarakat masih membelenggu perempuan sehingga jika perempuan tidak sesuai dengan konsep ideal yang berlaku di masyarakat, yang terjadi adalah malapetaka. Dalam masyarakat Indonesia yang masih sarat dengan nilai patriarki, perempuan sering diasingkan dan distigmakan negatif jika ia tidak dapat melahirkan anak. Tugas reproduksi yang dijalankan perempuan diperlihatkan dan diatur sesuai dengan kehendak masyarakat, misalnya kapan ia harus hamil dan berapa banyak anak yang akan dikandung dan dilahirkan. Ibu harus mengurus suami, anak-anak, dan rumah tangganya. Masyarakat telah mengkonstruksi perempuan sebagai sosok yang ideal, yang mengabdi pada suami dan bekerja sepenuhnya di wilayah domestik, seperti mengurus dapur, sumur, dan kasur.
