Authors: Teoh Yeong Kin , Hamdan Nur Fatihah , Abu Hasan Suzanawati , Ariffin Anas Fathul , Mahat Aishah
Published: October 2022

In late 2019, the unique severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), also known as COVID-19, first emerged in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China and quickly spread throughout the world. Until June 30, 2022, a total of 4,566,055 cases of COVID-19 have been reported in Malaysia, with 35,765 deaths and 4,500,856 recovered cases. This study aims to generalise a deterministic SIR model with vital dynamics for understanding the proliferation of infectious diseases. The SIR model with vital dynamics is more realistic in mimicking reality than the basic SIR model because it can determine the dynamic behaviours of COVID-19 over a more extended period. The SIR model utilises vital dynamics with unequal birth and death rates. Furthermore, the SIR model with vital dynamics is rescaled with the total time-varying population and analysed according to its epidemic condition. The results indicated that the number of infected individuals would peak about 10 - 15 days and reach their steady state about 25 - 60 days. The findings of this research may help policymakers establish, plan, and implement effective COVID-19 pandemic response strategies.

Storeroom is the most important storage area and it must be kept secured as it will be used by college students to keep their goods during semester break. They need to clear up the room before leaving the campus. To impose the security measure of storeroom, college management unit require students that are using the storeroom to write details and particulars before checking in and out the storeroom. This paper presents a development of Storeroom Management Module (SMM) for integration with Attendance Record for College Activities (ARCA) system. The module offers easy process when college staffs and students are dealing with storeroom. Module development involved three main phases which are feasibility study, design and development and module testing. Four components that comprises 17 questionnaires were included in technology acceptance model for module testing. Out of four components tested, component perceived user satisfaction (PUS) had received the highest mean score. This indicated that the developed SMM satisfied users in dealing with storeroom management module.

Authors: Mohd Nasir Diana Sirmayunie , Hamdan Nur Najihah , Shafii Nur Hayati , Mohamad Nor Nor Azriani
Published: October 2022

Nowadays, the bakery industry is widely spread and famous because it can be run by a small industry or a large industry. Seeing as bakery businesses, especially small industries prefer to allocate scarce resources through trial and error to maximize profit. As a result, the company has had difficulty allocating scarce resources, affecting gross profit and gross profit margin (GPM). As a consequence, the goals of this study were (i) to determine the total number of selected products that Templicious Enterprise should produce, (ii) to compare final results using Linear Programming (LP), Integer Linear Programming (ILP), and trial-and-error methods and (iii) to find out the limits of the maximum and minimum for each type of product using sensitivity analysis. The LP and ILP methods are calculated manually and using QM for Windows. As a result, it shows that the Templicious Enterprise should produce a total of one cycle (3 units) of standard pavlova, three cycles (24 units) of superbaby pavlova and one cycle (2 units) of personal pavlova for a total profit of RM 446.99. The result was obtained using ILP, and lastly, it shows that if prices rise, the Temptlicious Enterprise will have to raise the price of the pavlova they make to avoid making a loss.

Published: October 2022

Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) was initially reported in December 2019 in Wuhan City, China, as a result of a respiratory pandemic. Since then, the infection has spread rapidly and uncontrollably around the globe, prompting the World Health Organization (WHO) to declare it a pandemic. The study's overall objective is to imitate the COVID-19 infectious trend in Selangor. The SIR model is used to forecast infection and the course of COVID-19 diffusion and estimate the fraction of the population infected. As a result, the Susceptible, Infectious, and Recovered (SIR) model was used to accomplish the study's aims. From March 23, 2020, to June 30, 2020, 100 days of COVID-19 data were extracted from a database on the Malaysian Ministry of Health's website.  The RStudio software was used to analyse data on infectious trends in this study. The SIR model is used to predict the basic reproduction ratio, , based on actual and simulated infectious trends for comparison. The value of the basic reproduction ratio for simulating the infectious trend is 2.0, and the basic reproduction ratio for modelling the infectious trend with the entire population of Selangor is 1.15429. According to the findings of this study, the reproduction ratio would affect the number of infected individuals by reducing the number of recovered individuals. The effectiveness of lockdown in preventing COVID-19 disease in Selangor was demonstrated by a significant reduction in the basic reproduction ratio, .

Published: October 2022

Home security is a critical issue, especially for the civilians to protect their property from harm. Currently, the increase in home breaking usually occurs during school holidays and public holiday seasons. Therefore, to overcome the problem and the main objective is to design and develop a low-cost home security notification system using PIR sensor to detect movement of intruders, Raspberry Pi Camera, GPS module integrated with Raspberry Pi Zero WH to send an alert notification message with image, date, location, and time via Telegram Bot to the house owner’s and people nearby through a smart phone. The system utilizes the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) by implementing the waterfall model as the methodology. Three experiments were conducted to examine the effectiveness of the system which is sensor detection range, response time and user acceptance test (UAT). The finding indicates that the home security notification system was efficient, effective, low-cost, and easy to use. Besides, the system can detect the presence of the intruder and send the notification message in a reasonable time. Meanwhile, the result from the UAT indicates that the proposed system has a positive impact and to be well accepted by the majority of the users. Hence, the system can help the house owners to take immediate action such as calling the neighbourhood association or police department authority when the system detects an intruder in the house.
Los desafíos del Derecho Humano al agua en el los Estados federales: el caso argentino
Authors: Sanna Baroli Federico
Published: October 2022

Este trabajo abordará la problemática existente en los Estados organizados bajo un sistema federal, para dar efectivo cumplimiento a las obligaciones internacionales surgidas a partir del reconocimiento del Derecho Humano al agua (DHA), tomando como objeto de estudio el caso de la República Argentina. La distribución de competencias en estos Estados implica un equilibrio entre el Estado nacional (Soberano) y los Estados locales o provinciales (autónomos). La situación se torna especialmente compleja en aquellos Estados que han federalizado el aprovechamiento de sus recursos naturales, ejemplo de ello es el caso argentino, conforme lo establece el art. 124 de la Constitución Nacional de la República Argentina (CNA). El Estado nacional no puede ampararse en la distribución de competencias internas para evadir el cumplimiento de sus obligaciones internacionales. Se analizarán los posibles instrumentos con que cuenta el Estado nacional para garantizar el cumplimiento de sus obligaciones internacionales en torno al DHA, teniendo en cuenta que debe respetar el sistema federal que ha otorgado a las provincias el dominio de sus recursos naturales.
Panorama complejo de los estereotipos de género con motivo del aborto voluntario
Authors: Galati Elvio
Published: October 2022

El objetivo del trabajo es extraer de los marcos teóricos propuestos para la investigación indicadores de discriminación de género, llamados estereotipos de género. Luego se aplicarán los mismos al análisis e interpretación de los debates parlamentarios por la interrupción voluntaria del embarazo de 2018 en el Congreso argentino. El marco teórico es la perspectiva de género, y el pensamiento complejo de Edgar Morin. La metodología es exploratoria, documental, tomando como base empírica unidades de análisis que son textos. Hay análisis de contenido, del discurso y filosófico. Como resultado, el estereotipo es una sólida huella cultural. La naturalidad es un estereotipo de discriminación de género, así como creer que la mujer no tiene límites, es caridad, y el hombre sí, y es justicia. Simone de Beauvoir asocia lo masculino con lo neutro, lo genérico, lo que invisibiliza a la mujer. Se asigna a la mujer la continuidad de la vida, y el macho separa. La mujer es permanencia, inmanencia, continuidad, estabilidad. Tiene un papel contemplativo, no público. Como lo corporal es maldito, junto con el placer, debe renunciar a su dominio. La mujer es medio, accesorio. Bourdieu asocia lo masculino con lo superior, lo alto, delante, derecho, duro, fuerza. La mujer debe aceptar las interrupciones, se le adjudican trabajos sucios, monótonos. Butler habla de legislar lo que solo es habitable para algunos, pensar que la identidad femenina está afianzada. El placer es únicamente masculino. Benjamin señala el binarismo, el maniqueísmo, la desexualización de la mujer, quitarle capacidad de poder y deseo.
El contacto cara a cara en el proceso penal
Authors: Massaccesi Lucas
Published: October 2022

Los procesos penales ordinarios transcurren en La Plata, Prov. de Buenos Aires, sin que se lleven adelante -salvo excepciones- las instancias orales procesalmente previstas para que los/as magistrados/as (fiscales y jueces/zas) conozcan cara a cara a las personas que luego acusarán/juzgarán en el juicio. Así, desde el comienzo de las investigaciones hasta el momento del inicio del debate (oral o escrito -abreviado-), las autoridades judiciales adoptan resoluciones tan trascendentales como, por ejemplo, definir si una persona acusada permanecerá en libertad durante el proceso o si, por el contrario, será encarcelada preventivamente hasta el momento del juicio, sin siquiera haber tenido un mínimo de inmediación con quienes soportarán el grave tenor de sus resoluciones. Sin embargo, excepcionalmente esa inercia despersonalizante es conmovida, tal y como sucedió en el caso de Cristian, un joven platense quien, encarcelado cautelarmente, logró luego tomar contacto cara a cara con los/as magistrados/as de su expediente, recobrando gracias a ello su libertad. Este trabajo es el relato de dicho caso, engarzado éste en una reflexión sobre la capacidad de incidencia que, en los procesos penales, tiene o puede tener el contacto directo entre juzgadores/as y juzgados/as.

Catalogação de histórias em quadrinhos à luz da semiótica da cultura
Authors: Pavarina Etefania Cristina , Zafalon Zaira Regina
Published: October 2022

A pesquisa discute a análise documental de histórias em quadrinhos a partir de aspectos semióticos com a finalidade de garantir a sua recuperação nas bibliotecas pelo usuário. A catalogação de histórias em quadrinhos apresenta problemas e dificuldades haja vista sua configuração como recurso que integra a linguagem verbal e não-verbal. O objetivo desta pesquisa, de cunho exploratório, caráter qualitativo e natureza aplicada, é investigar as relações que podem ser estabelecidas entre a catalogação e a semiótica da cultura com vistas a contribuir com as bases teóricas e epistemológicas da organização e representação da informação de histórias em quadrinhos. Por meio de procedimentos bibliográficos, os resultados são traçados com uso do método de análise de conteúdo. Os conceitos desenvolvidos na semiótica da cultura podem contribuir para a catalogação, principalmente nos processos de leitura documental, análise de assunto e catalogação de assunto. Os resultados mostram que, a partir dos conceitos da semiótica da cultura, é possível definir aspectos da semiosfera do autor e do catalogador visto que ambas permeiam a construção do registro bibliográfico de histórias em quadrinhos. Conclui-se que o catalogador, como mediador, é responsável pela compreensão dos códigos culturais que compõem a semiosfera das histórias em quadrinhos, garantindo ao usuário, por meio de tradução e transcodificação, condições para satisfazer suas necessidades informacionais.
Decolonizando os acervos das bibliotecas públicas: formação de coleções de literatura afro-brasileira
Authors: Tanus Gabrielle Francinne de S. C. , Souza Gustavo Tanus Cesário de
Published: October 2022

As bibliotecas públicas são espaços sociais e políticos destinados ao atendimento de todos da comunidade, assim elas ancoram-se no discurso inclusivo e democrático do acesso à informação, serviços e produtos. Contudo, há ainda um caminho a ser percorrido em direção a diversidade e a multiculturalidade em seus espaços, a começar pelos acervos. Discutiremos neste texto, a partir da literatura da área da Biblioteconomia e Ciência da Informação, a relação entre as bibliotecas públicas e a formação e o desenvolvimento de coleções, tendo como foco a literatura afro-brasileira. Consideramos o papel social das bibliotecas públicas e de seus profissionais, os bibliotecários, como agentes de mudanças, ressaltando a importância de ambos, com vistas à construção de uma sociedade justa e democrática. Compreendemos que esses profissionais devem conscientizar-se da relevância de formar e desenvolver acervos que propiciem o acesso à leitura de livros de autoras e autores de literatura afro-brasileira, visando tanto o fortalecimento das identidades dos sujeitos quanto do pensamento afrocentrado nas comunidades. Em suma, bibliotecas mais democráticas requerem práticas de decolonização dos acervos por meio de ações e políticas de reparação das coleções.

Published: October 2022

O objetivo deste estudo é identificar a associação entre indicadores sociodemográficos e experiências anteriores em práticas esportivas, como o atendimento í s recomendações de atividade fí­sica (AF) em alguma escola técnica federal nascida em Bagé-RS. Mostrou-se compostada por 93 alunos com idade entre 14 e 17 anos, sendo a maioria do sexo masculino (n = 59; 58,4%). O ní­vel de AF foi medido por questionário e os alunos classificados como suficientemente ativos (SA) ou insuficientemente ativos (IA) de acordo com as recomendações internacionais. Foi realizada a descrição de dois resultados por meio de frequências relativas e absolutas. Associações bivariadas e multivariadas realizadas com base nas chances brutas e ajustadas (OR) e seus respectivos intervalos de confiança de 95% (IC95%) calculados. Os resultados indicam que quase não existem dois em cada 10 alunos do SA. Independentemente dos outros dois fatores analisados, visto que os homens (OR: 6,58; IC95%: 1,57-27,60) apresentaram maior chance de serem classificados como AI. Polí­ticas que facilitem a prática de AF para adolescentes, comuns aos homens, devem ser elaboradas. A oferta de práticas esportivas estruturadas fora do espaço escolar pode ser uma alternativa promissora.

O consumo máximo de oxigênio (VO2pico) é utilizado em estudos com adolescentes para relacionar a aptidão física ao estado de saúde, e, na área do treinamento esportivo, para a prescrição e avaliação de programas de treinamento. O objetivo do presente estudo foi verificar o VO2pico em adolescentes praticantes de Futebol de campo observando o tipo de treinamento e o tamanho corporal. A amostra foi composta por 116 adolescentes masculinos, idade entre 12 e 15 anos, divididos em três grupos, o Grupo Controle (GC; n=45), o Grupo de Esporte Educacional (GEE; n=45) e o Grupo de Atletas de Futebol (GAF; n=26). Foram avaliadas a estatura e a massa corporal. O Yo-Yo Intermittent Endurance Test foi utilizado para avaliar o VO2pico. Foi utilizada a ANOVA (one way), para determinar as diferenças intergrupos. O VO2pico foi ajustado alometricamente pelo expoente de -0,67. Inicialmente observou-se melhor desempenho aeróbio do grupo GEE em relação ao GED.  Após o ajuste alométrico, os resultados apontaram para o melhor desempenho do GAF em relação ao GED e GEE.  Conclui-se que para se avaliar o VO2pico em adolescentes é necessário levar-se em conta, não só o tipo de treinamento utilizado (volume e intensidade), mas também o seu tamanho corporal.

Los supuestos filosóficos en psicología del desarrollo: ¿Meta teoría o marco epistémico?
Authors: Castorina José Antonio
Published: October 2022

Sostenemos la tesis de que un conjunto de presuposiciones básicas, ontológicas y epistemológicas subyace a las investigaciones en psicología del desarrollo, en términos de meta teorías (MT) y de marco epistémico (ME). Ello plantea algunos problemas, entre otros: ¿cómo se integran los presupuestos al proceso científico? ¿Cómo es afectado este último por las posiciones ontológicas y epistemológicas? ¿Subsisten inalterables los supuestos o estos pueden modificarse, durante las investigaciones? ¿En qué difieren y en qué son similares las dos versiones? Intentaremos ciertas respuestas. En primer lugar, caracterizamos a la categoría de MT propuesta por Overton, y ampliada por Witherington y otros autores. Luego, examinamos la de ME formulada por Piaget y García, revisitada por Becerra y Castorina, introduciendo a los valores ético-políticos y las regulaciones sociales. Más adelante, se analizan las semejanzas y las diferencias entre las MT, asociados con la noción de paradigma, y los ME con una fuerte impronta en los valores ético-político y las regulaciones sociales Finalmente, sugerimos los beneficios para los ME de incorporar los análisis conceptuales de las MT y para éstas últimas de introducir las condiciones sociales.
Entorno sociocultural y desarrollo humano: reflexiones desde las diferencias culturales en teoría de la mente
Authors: Moreno-Núñez Ana
Published: October 2022

La teoría de la mente (TM) es un hito clave del desarrollo humano, ya que comprende habilidades fundamentales para la comunicación efectiva y la participación social. Buena parte de la investigación reciente parte del estudio de la falsa creencia como indicador representativo de su desarrollo, pero ello pasa por alto la naturaleza compleja del fenómeno, cuyo desarrollo depende de la organización gradual de múltiples aspectos. Si bien existe consenso en cuanto al carácter multifacético de la TM, los procesos relacionados con su desarrollo se han explorado poco más allá de las culturas occidentales, centrándose especialmente en muestras poblacionales de Norteamérica y Europa. Este artículo discute la evidencia sobre las diferencias culturales existentes en los patrones y tiempos de desarrollo de la TM, así como las dificultades que la poca diversidad de tareas que tradicionalmente se han usado para su evaluación podrían suponer en términos de validez y generalización de resultados.

Published: October 2022

La pandemia mundial por COVID-19 y las medidas preventivas que se implementaron han tenido efectos en la salud mental de la población. Frente a esto, resultó necesario encontrar maneras novedosas de continuar ofreciendo formas accesibles de atención en salud mental, siguiendo la lógica de la atención primaria de la salud y apelando a modos y posiciones responsables de ejercer el rol profesional en este contexto. La creatividad en este sentido devino una herramienta privilegiada que permitió la creación de nuevas modalidades de atención, como ha sido el dispositivo de orientación y contención (en adelante, DOC). Esta atención de carácter telefónico es llevada adelante por profesionales de un hospital público de la ciudad de Comodoro Rivadavia, Chubut. A continuación, se presenta una lectura de la creación y funcionamiento del dispositivo en articulación con aportes teóricos de diversos autores.
La noción de dispositivo en el campo de la salud mental
Authors: Salum Javier Emanuel , Stolkiner Alicia Inés , D’Agostino Agustina María Edna
Published: October 2022

En el presente artículo, se problematizan los usos de la noción de dispositivo en el campo de la salud mental. Con este propósito, se realiza un rastreo en fuentes documentales, bibliográficas y testimoniales, a fin de identificar los criterios que recaen sobre dicha utilización. En función de las convergencias y disidencias encontradas, se traza una categorización tentativa de los usos más frecuentes según tres tipos: convencional, teórico y vivencial. Se corrobora la hipótesis de partida, a saber: que en el campo de la salud mental asistimos a una proliferación heterogénea del término “dispositivo”. Se deduce que esto va en detrimento de su potencia como herramienta teórica. Se concluye la pertinencia y la necesidad de un doble trabajo: por una parte, de restitución de algunas dimensiones teóricas del concepto de dispositivo; por otra, de cartografía de los dispositivos del campo de la salud mental.

Published: October 2022

The mass attenuation coefficients of several water equivalent phantom materials and fabricated Rhizophora spp. particleboards were measured using Compton scattering technique of Ludlum configuration. The scattered gamma energies were calculated at 30, 45, 60 and 75°. The measured mass attenuation coefficients of the samples were compared to their theoretical values using XCOM calculation soft ware and the XCOM values of water as standard phantom material for high energy photons. The results showed that the measured mass attenuation coefficients of solid water and fabricated Rhizophora spp. particleboards were in good agreement to their respective theoretical values with p-value of 0.2411 and 0.934. A comparison to the XCOM value of water also showed that all experimented values of the water equivalent phantoms were in good agreement to water with p-values between 0.055 and 1. The results had indicated the suitability of the Ludlum configuration to be used for the measurement of mass attenuation coefficients using Compton scattering technique.

Mammary adenocarcinomas with metastasis are more common in dogs than in cats. Its incidence is 1 in every 4,000 cats. Usually, veterinary routine laboratory exams are nonspecific for these neoplasms and tumoral markers are not widely used in the practice. The clinical evaluation and image assessment leads the way to the proper treatment, especially when surgical intervention is a possibility. Although an invasive procedure, biopsy and histopathological findings are the gold standards which define the clinical approach. Procedures: This study describes the clinical signs, histopathological aspects, radiological and scintigraphic findings of a cat with mammary adenocarcinoma and metastasis evaluated one hour after intravenous administration of 99mTc-Thymine. Our focus is not to discuss the pathological aspects of the disease but the nuclear medicine role in metastasis detection. Metastasis when lesser than 4mm, could be unnoticed by radiological exams whereas scintigraphy may detect it. Results: Here, we successfully detected unsuspected metastasis in lungs, liver and right kidney. Early diagnosis is the key for a better rate of survival due to the given treatment and, prognostic. Conclusions: We strongly recommend the use of 99mTc-Thymine as a complementary tool for breast cancer diagnosis in veterinary care.

Introduction: Among all hernias inguinal hernia is known to be the most common condition for which  surgery is being performed and 75% of all hernia occur in groin.The low pubic tubercle has more tendencies for herniation due to unusual origin of internal oblique muscle leaving internal ring unprotected during abdominal muscle contraction. In view of this we conducted a study to evaluate the incidence of inguinal hernia in low lying pubic tubercle and its correlation with occurrence of inguinal hernia.Materials and methods: A Hospital based prospective study was be conducted on 100 patients, who came with inguinal hernia conducted from May 2015 to April 2018 at Father Muller Medical College Hospital and those who met the criteria. Plain Anteroposterior Radiographs of Pelvic region in 100 patients of inguinal hernia and to find out if low lying pubic tubercle has any correlation with occurrence of inguinal herniaResults: A total of 100 patients with inguinal hernia meeting the inclusion criteria was included in the study, plain X-ray of the pelvis was taken to measure SS (Distance between each anterior superior iliac spines) and ST (Spinotubercular) line and we found that 76 patients out of 100 (76.0%) patients with inguinal hernia had a low lying PT that is ST >7.5 cms. 78 patients had indirect inguinal hernia and 32 patients had direct inguinal hernia.In our study of groin hernias, the most common age group involved is the 41-50 years age group with 17 cases 42.5%. The mean age in our study was is 47.05 years Standard deviation of age is 12.15years. In our study of groin hernias, the most common gender involved in groin hernias was male with 38 cases 95% of the cases.

In the present research work, we investigated the use of the image intensifier in the extraction of radiopaque foreign bodies in traumatology. First of all, it is necessary to clarify that this method constitutes an essential component of practically generalized use, in which low current level radiation is used, that is, fluoroscopic radiation, so that it can be applied for a considerably longer time than that of the longest radiographic exposure. This tool works with a tube intended for this purpose, which is known as fluoroscopy. The radiations from the tube pass through the patient and reach the serigraph, on which the image intensifier or fluoroscopic screen is mounted. In the latter case, this is where the chain ends, since it is on this screen that the image is formed and where the physician directly observes the region to be studied. It is also necessary to define that a foreign body is any element foreign to the body that enters it, either through the skin or through any natural orifice such as the eyes, nose, throat, preventing its normal functioning. It was possible to obtain as a result that the advantages of fluoroscopic navigation are the reduction of surgical time and the amount of irradiation, which goes from about 140 seconds without navigation to only 8 seconds, which is a substantial difference. Among the conclusions, it was possible to highlight that in the case of a radiopaque object, it is essential to have an image intensifier for localization of the foreign body during surgery; while in the case of a radiolucent foreign body, it is more advisable to locate it through the clinic, since these tend to form granulomas.

The suspicion of mediastinal alterations, always includes in its initial study, the chest radiography. The identiﬁcation of mediastinal alterations in the X-ray is a priority. The knowledge of the mediastinal references and the identification of their alterations allows the suspicion of a pathology specific to each of the mediastinal spaces. When the semiology of mediastinal lesions, their location and the three most frequent pathologies are taken into account, the possibility of having an etiological diagnosis increases[1]. This is a review article based on a detailed literature search, in which radiological mediastinal references are studied, with emphasis on the epidemiological data of each one of them.

Acute abdomen is a frequent clinical picture in emergency diagnostics. Pathologic changes of the female genital organs play an important role. Gynecologic emergencies threaten fertility and are potentially life-threatening. Many differential diagnoses must be considered in the diagnostic process, depending on the age of the patient and any pregnancy. In particular, acute gastrointestinal symptoms often cannot be differentiated from gynecologic emergencies on clinical examination. Here, imaging makes a significant contribution to narrowing the differential diagnosis, making treatment decisions, and monitoring therapy. This review article will discuss the central role of imaging in the context of common gynecologic emergencies.

Objective: To determine the presence of bacteria by means of microbiological analysis on the surfaces contacted by the operator during the taking and processing of intraoral radiographs at different times of the day in the Oral Radiology Service of the UPCH. Materials and methods: Nine surfaces of the oral radiology service were sampled. The samples were taken at two times by the same investigator; at the beginning and the end of the activities in the service, the surfaces were swabbed with Trypticase Soy Broth (TSB). The samples were inoculated and incubated in three culture media (Plate Count Agar, Lamb’s Blood Agar and Cetrimide Agar). Then the respective Colony Forming Unit (CFU) count was performed and Gram staining was also performed. Results: A high concentration of bacteria (4180 CFU/mL) and fungi was found in the oral radiology service. Gram-positive cocci were the most frequently found microorganisms and gram-negative bacilli were less frequently found. Conclusions: There is a high contamination of bacteria in the oral radiology service. When the activities are completed, the number of bacteria decreases, but the variety of bacteria increases.

Introduction: It is universally accepted that the posteroanterior skull radiograph shows a lower degree of distortion than other radiographic images, so that measurements on it are considered reliable. Objective: To determine the percentage of distortion in the different facial regions of the postero-anterior skull radiograph. Methods: Thirty human skulls with their jaws were divided by three horizontal and four vertical planes into fifteen quadrants; there were ten in the skull and five in the jaw. On each of them a steel wire was placed in vertical and horizontal positions and their length (actual measurement) was measured. Each set was X-rayed in posteroanterior projection and the length of the wires was measured in the image (radiographic measurement). Results: It was not possible to measure in the lateral quadrants of the skull. The horizontal measurement in the right and left lower intermediate quadrants of the skull and in the intermediate and lateral quadrants of both sides of the mandible is not reliable; in the median quadrant of the mandible it is minimized; in the right and left upper intermediate and median quadrants of the skull and in the median of the mandible it is magnified. Vertical measurements in all quadrants are reliable; in the right and left upper intermediate and left upper and middle quadrants of the skull and in the right and left middle and lateral quadrants of the mandible it is magnified; in the lower intermediate and upper and lower middle quadrants of the skull and median of the mandible it is minimized. The least distortion for both measurements occurs in the upper median quadrant of the skull. Percentages of distortion are reported for each quadrant. Conclusions: Distortion is present in the posteroanterior skull radiograph and varies from one region of the face to another.

In the process of X-ray transmission imaging, the mutual occlusion between structures will lead to the image information overlap, and the computed tomography (CT) method is often required to obtain the structure information at different depths, but with low efficiency. To address these problems, an X-ray focused on imaging algorithm based on multi-line scanning is proposed, which only requires the scene target to pass through the detection area along a straight line to extract multi-view information, and uses the optical field reconstruction theory to achieve the de-obscured reconstruction of the structure at a specified depth with high real-time. The results of multi-line scan and X-ray reconstruction of the target show that the proposed method can reconstruct the information of any specified depth layer, and it can perform fast imaging detection of the mutually occluded target structures and improve the recognition of the occluded targets, which has a good application prospect.

Introduction: Stenoses in the path of arteriovenous fistulas (AVF) for hemodialysis are a very prevalent problem and there is long experience in their treatment by percutaneous angioplasty (PTA). These procedures, however, involve non-negligible equipment requirements, exposure to radiation and intravenous contrast that are not beneficial for the patient and make their performance more complex. This study reviews our initial experience with Doppler ultrasound-guided angioplasty. Methods: Prospective cohort of patients with native AVF dysfunction due to significant venous stenosis treated by Doppler echo-guided PTA. AVF puncture, lesion catheterization, balloon localization and inflation, and outcome verification were performed under ultrasound guidance. Only one fistulography was performed before and another one after dilatation. As a control, the cases performed during the same period by the usual angiographic method were also collected. Results: Between February 2015 and September 2018, 51 PTAs were performed on native AVF, of which 27 were echogenic (mean age, 65.3 years; 63% male). The technical success rate was 96%. In 26% of cases, PTA was repeated due to residual stenosis after angiographic imaging. There were 7.3% periprocedural complications. 92% of the AVFs were punctured at 24 hours. Primary patency at 1 month, 6 months and 1 year was 100%, 64.8% and 43.6%, and assisted patency was 100%, 87.2% and 74.8%. There were no significant differences in immediate or late results with respect to angiographically guided AVF angioplasty. Conclusions: AVF-PTA can be performed safely and effectively guided by Doppler ultrasound, which simplifies the logistics required for its performance, although we still need to improve the capacity for early verification of the result with this imaging technique.
