Authors: Al-Khowarizmi Al-Khowarizmi
Published: March 2020

Indonesian Rupiah (IDR) banknotes have unique characteristics that distinguish them from one another, both in the form of numbers, zeros and background images. This pattern of each type of banknote will be modeled in order to test the nominal value and authenticity of IDR, so as to be able to distinguish not only IDR banknotes but also other denominations. Evolutionary Neural Network is the development of the concept of evolution to get a neural network (NN) using genetic algorithms (GA). In this paper the application of evolutionary neural networks with less input is able to have a better success rate in object recognition, because the parameters for producing neural networks are far better

Authors: Andrews Elizabeth R , Marchand-Austin Alex , Ma Jennifer , Cronin Kirby , Sharma Meenu , Brode Sarah K , Marras Theodore K , Jamieson Frances B
Published: March 2020

Background: Drug susceptibility testing (DST) in nontuberculous mycobacterial pulmonary disease (NTM-PD) is useful for some Mycobacterium species. International guidelines recommend routine use of DST for clinically relevant mycobacteria. DST use and results are poorly studied at the population level. We sought to identify the frequency of DST utilization for nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTMs) and describe the potential relevance of these results in Ontario. Methods: Using public health laboratory data, we performed a population-based retrospective analysis of NTM DST utilization in Ontario from May 2010 to June 2015. We determined the proportion of incident NTM-PD infections for which DST was performed and analyzed minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) distributions from NTM testing overall, using thresholds recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute. Results: The proportion of incident cases of NTM-PD tested for DST was 6.3% (240/3,806) for Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC), 36.2% (67/185) for M. abscessus, and 1.8% (19/1,057) for M. xenopi. Among specimens from all body sites, MAC resistance to clarithromycin occurred in 8.0% of specimens (21/262) and MAC resistance to amikacin (intravenous, MIC > 64 µg/mL) occurred in 22.6% (19/84). M. abscessus resistance occurred as follows: to amikacin, 3.8% (3/79); cefoxitin, 14.0% (11/79); imipenem, 30.4% (14/46); linezolid, 39.2% (31/79); clarithromycin, 54.2% (13/24); ciprofloxacin, 92.4% (73/79); and moxifloxacin, 91.1% (51/56). M. xenopi analysis was limited by few DST requests and a lack of DST clinical correlation. Conclusions: We found that NTM DST is underutilized in Ontario and observed a very high frequency of amikacin resistance among MAC isolates.

Published: March 2020

Mastocytoma is among the most common skin tumors in dogs, having great importance in the clinical and surgical routine, but its occurrence in animals under one year of age is considered rare. Its diagnosis is made through anatomopathological exams, especially histopathology, which allows for grading and prognostic evaluation. Treatment may involve multiple therapeutic approaches, such as chemotherapy, electrochemotherapy, tyrosine kinase receptor inhibitors, radiotherapy and cryosurgery, however the most indicated modality is surgical excision, which provides the highest chance of cure of the animal. The prognosis for mastocytoma may vary according to its grading and clinical factors, as well as immunohistochemical factors, which have great prognostic relevance but are not yet considered routine. This paper reports the case of a canine with a manifestation of a nodule at 9 months of age. Surgical excision was performed, and the sample was sent for histopathological evaluation and later, immunohistochemistry. The tumor was diagnosed as a mast cell tumor and classified as low grade by Kiupel grading, and grade II by Patnaik grading, and manifested a c-Kit II pattern and proliferation marker Ki -67 of 4 on immunohistochemistry examination. A metronomic chemotherapy protocol was performed with the use of chlorambucil 4mg / m² associated with prednisone 1mg / kg, reaching 60 days free of any signs of the disease, and being discharged from cancer, remaining only in follow-up. The occurrence of cases of malignant neoplasms in animals of early age is worrying and requires further study.

Exit to the past and voice for the future. Sciences de gestion, sciences fondamentales de l’action collective
Authors: Hatchuel Armand
Published: March 2020

Cet article1résume les résultats d’une refondation des sciences de gestion. Il part de la théorie de la « bene gesta » romaine qui reliait l’action rationnelle et la responsabilité citoyenne. Impensable dans la modernité « économiciste », cette notion revient avec la théorie administrative de Henry Fayol et de l’entreprise moderne. Pourtant, la théorie du management oublie Fayol et se réduit à la quête de performances dans l’entreprise actionnariale. Aujourd’hui, relier rationalité et responsabilité débouche sur une science de l’action collective qui a contribué à la théorie de la conception et à la redéfinition de « l’entreprise » dans la loi française.

Getting by or getting ahead
Authors: Vincent Susan
Published: March 2020

Peru's economy is booming because of natural resource extraction, without providing formal employment. Instead, increased state revenues fund social spending. This case study shows how cash transfers are integrated into intergenerational reciprocities that are essential to social reproduction in ways that promote financialization: their inadequacy may necessitate loans which the regular disbursements can repay. Recipients hoping to get by tend to have few kin obligations and use state aid to sustain themselves, while those hoping to get ahead use them to leverage investment in productive enterprises for themselves or their families. For people from Allpachico, for whom male migrant work in the regional mining sector was the economic mainstay three decades ago, this constitutes a new relationship to the state, mining, and the economy.
Justice as Non-maleficence
Authors: Bufacchi Vittorio
Published: March 2020

The principle of non-maleficence, primum non nocere, has deep roots in the history of moral philosophy, being endorsed by John Stuart Mill, W. D. Ross, H. L. A. Hart, Karl Popper and Bernard Gert. And yet, this principle is virtually absent from current debates on social justice. This article suggests that non-maleficence is more than a moral principle; it is also a principle of social justice. Part I looks at the origins of non-maleficence as a principle of ethics, and medical ethics in particular. Part II introduces the idea of non-maleficence as a principle of social justice. Parts III and IV define the principle of justice as non-maleficence in terms of its scope and coherence, while Part V argues that the motivation of not doing harm makes this principle an alternative to two well-established paradigms in the literature on social justice: justice as mutual advantage (David Gauthier) and justice as impartiality (Brian Barry).
Health care transition in pediatric neurosurgery: a consensus statement from the American Society of Pediatric Neurosurgeons
Authors: Rocque Brandon G. , Weprin Bradley E. , Blount Jeffrey P. , Hopson Betsy D. , Drake James M. , Hamilton Mark G. , Williams Michael A. , White Patience H. , Orrico Katie O. , Martin Jonathan E.
Published: March 2020

OBJECTIVE

The number of children with complex medical conditions surviving to adulthood is increasing. A planned transition to adult care systems is essential to the health maintenance of these patients. Guidance has been established for the general health care transition (HCT) from adolescence to adulthood. No formal assessment of the performance of pediatric neurosurgeons in HCT has been previously performed. No “best practice” for this process in pediatric neurosurgery currently exists. The authors pursued two goals in this paper: 1) define the current state of HCT in pediatric neurosurgery through a survey of the membership of the American Society of Pediatric Neurosurgeons (ASPN) on current methods of HCT, and 2) develop leadership-endorsed best-practice guidelines for HCT from pediatric to adult neurosurgical health care.

METHODS

Completion of the Current Assessment of Health Care Transition Activities survey was requested of 178 North American pediatric neurosurgeons by using a web-based questionnaire to capture HCT practices of the ASPN membership. The authors concurrently conducted a PubMed/MEDLINE–based literature review of HCT for young adults with special health care needs, surgical conditions, and/or neurological conditions for the period from 1990 to 2018. Selected articles were assembled and reviewed by subject matter experts and members of the ASPN Quality, Safety, and Advocacy Committee. Best-practice recommendations were developed and subjected to peer review by external expert groups.

RESULTS

Seventy-six responses to the survey (43%) were received, and 62 respondents (82%) answered all 12 questions. Scores of 1 (lowest possible score) were recorded by nearly 60% of respondents on transition policy, by almost 70% on transition tracking, by 85% on transition readiness, by at least 40% on transition planning as well as transfer of care, and by 53% on transition completion. Average responses on all core elements were < 2 on the established 4-point scale. Seven best-practice recommendations were developed and endorsed by the ASPN leadership.

CONCLUSIONS

The majority of pediatric neurosurgeons have transition practices that are poor, do not meet the needs of patients and families, and should be improved. A structured approach to transition, local engagement with adult neurosurgical providers, and national partnerships between pediatric and adult neurosurgery organizations are suggested to address current gaps in HCT for patients served by pediatric neurosurgeons.
Confidence in Financial and Health Literacy and Cognitive Health in Older Persons
Authors: Yu Lei , Mottola Gary , Bennett David A. , Boyle Patricia A.
Published: March 2020

Background:

Financial and health literacy are associated with cognitive outcomes in old age. However, the extent to which confidence in financial and health literacy is related to cognitive health is unknown.

Objective:

This study tests the hypothesis that confidence is associated with cognitive outcomes above and beyond actual financial and health literacy.

Methods:

A total of 974 older adults underwent assessments of literacy and confidence in literacy, and were subsequently followed for annual clinical evaluations. Financial and health literacy were assessed via a series of items which were immediately followed by questions asking participants to rate their confidence in accuracy of their response to the literacy items. Cox proportional hazards models examined the associations of financial and health literacy and confidence in literacy with incident Alzheimer’s disease (AD) dementia; and linear mixed models examined the associations with cognitive decline.

Results:

Participants on average were 81.2 years of age at literacy assessment. Over up to 9 years of annual follow-up, 175 (18%) developed AD dementia. After adjusting for demographics, higher confidence in financial literacy was associated with lower risk of AD dementia and slower decline in cognition. The results persisted after further adjusting for financial literacy performance. Similar findings were observed for confidence in health literacy. Further, older adults who expressed under-confidence relative to their actual level of financial and health literacy were more likely to develop AD dementia and experienced faster cognitive decline.

Conclusion:

Both domain-specific literacy and confidence in one’s financial and health knowledge are important determinants of cognitive health among community-dwelling older adults.

Acrylamide based hydrogels in swelling and uptake of methylene blue from aqueous solutions
Authors: Gökçe Kocabay Özlem , İsmail Osman
Published: March 2020

Several kinds of acrylamide-poly(ethylene glycol) hydrogels were synthesized at room temperature (25°C) by adding N,N,N’,N’-tetramethylethylenediamine crosslinker to AAm aqueous solutions containing 0, 0.20, 0.40, 0.60, 0.80 and 1 mg of PEG6000. Water uptake and dye-sorption properties of the synthesized poly(acrylamide) and acrylamide-poly(ethylene glycol) hydrogels were investigated as a function of chemical composition of the hydrogels. Cationic dye (methylene blue) has been used in sorption studies. It was determined that poly(ethylene glycol) used for pore forming in synthesizing the hydrogel has an influence on the adsorption of methylene blue as in the case of adsorption phonemia. Adsorption equilibrium was investigated by using Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models. Two kinetic models, (i) pseudo-first-order and (ii) pseudo-second-order kinetic models were applied to test the experimental data. Freundlich isotherm model represented the experimental data very well. Methylene blue adsorption followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model which indicated chemical adsorption.

Transcendentalism, Network Concepts and American Poetry
Authors: Shcherbak N. F. , Gerus A. I.
Published: March 2020

Introduction. The paper aims at describing the philosophy of transcendentalism as viewed by 19th century American philosopher Ralph Emerson, one of its founders and, above all, the direct application of this framework to the contemporary view of network concepts introduced as a state-of the art paradigm of cultural and social development, often viewed as directly applicable to the study of social processes as well as literary texts.

Methodology and sources. The chosen methodology includes the structural semantic study of Emerson’s texts and the analysis of the view of contemporary philosophers of the language and literary critics on the network concept as a basis for state of the art social schemes and internet-communication principles, as well as literary texts analysis.

Results and discussion. The results of the research allow to hypothesize that the philosophy of transcendentalism which attempted to give a full-fledged representation of a harmonious and dynamic cosmic principle, seeing ways of moral purification and comprehension of the super-soul has similar principles with the works by outstanding poststructuralist or postmodern philosophers (like G. Deleuze) and is directly applicable to the study of contemporary literary texts if not social processes. These concepts allow to see the development of aesthetic paradigm (a vivid example being the development of the transcendental motive in poetry). One of the possible examples could be seen in the development of poetic paradigm with а) early romantic poetry concentrating on the poet’s emotions, thus rendering the transcendental, with b) modernist writing which used language as a medium, when a poem became a means of expressing the transcendental, with c) poetry combining political views and the transcendental experience, with d) post-colonial poetry, with the transcendental being transferred from the sphere of “eternal” to the sphere of “everyday”.

Conclusion. American transcendentalism allows to see common patterns of development and innovation of cultural, literary, philosophical scene, characteristic of the contemporary aesthetic paradigm.

Authors: Malwade Sudhir , Nayak Manas , Chalipat Shiji , Agarkhedkar Sharad
Published: March 2020

Background: Neonatal seizure is a distinct clinical response to neurological dysfunction. Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is a leading cause of neonatal seizures. Neonates with seizures are at risk of neurodevelopmental impairment, cognitive, behavioral disorders, epilepsy in later part of life, and even death during the neonatal period of life. Objective: The objective of the study was to study the occurrence of breakthrough seizures in a newborn with HIE after stopping anticonvulsant therapy. Materials and Methods: The study was a prospective cross-sectional study done in a Level III NICU of a tertiary hospital in Western India. A total of 35 full-term newborns with evidence of perinatal hypoxia with HIE II, III as per Sarnat and Sarnat staging and magnetic resonance imaging were enrolled. Patients with seizures were treated with intravenous phenobarbitone (PB). Patients were observed for breakthrough seizures after discontinuation of PB and were followed up at high-risk outpatient department until 6 months of age. Results: A total of 31 (88.6%) cases of 35 did not manifest breakthrough seizures. There were four (11.4%) cases which manifested breakthrough seizure after stopping anticonvulsant therapy and three had HIE III (p=0.044). Maternal anemia was observed to have a statistically significant association with breakthrough seizures (p<0.0001). There were nine cases with an abnormal neurological examination, three manifested breakthrough seizures, and there was no statistical correlation between neurological examination and occurrence of clinical and breakthrough seizures (p=0.0165).

Introduction: Laparoscopic appendectomy (LA) for complicated appendicitis appears to be controversial due to the difficulty in dissection and clearing off the peritoneal contamination, prolonged operating times, higher incidence of post-operative abdominal abscess, and wound infections. Objectives: The objective of the study was to compare laparoscopic and open appendectomy (OA) and evaluate the outcome of LA in children with complicated appendicitis. Materials and Methods: A retrospective analysis of 182 patients’ records with complicated appendicitis was done. Data collected included demographics, operative time, resumption of oral intake, and infectious complications such as wound infection and intra-abdominal abscess, need for redo surgery, length of hospitalization, and duration of antibiotic use. Patients were followed up for 6 months in the post-operative period to assess delayed complications. Results: LA was performed in 102 patients and 80 patients underwent an OA. The two groups did not differ significantly in mean age, duration of antibiotic use, resumption of oral intake, and length of the hospital stay. The duration of surgery was significantly longer for LA (p<0.0001). However, the wound infection was significantly more common in the OA group than the laparoscopy group (p=0.0058). None of the patients in the LA group developed delayed complications. A total of four patients in the open group had to undergo surgery for late-onset complications. Conclusion: LA for complicated appendicitis is more advantageous than OA as there is reduced surgical site infection. However, the operative time is prolonged with an increased incidence of immediate post-operative intestinal obstruction. Nevertheless, it avoids the late complications of OA.

On the deliberative initiation of macro-social change: The case of the round table negotiations in poland from the perspective of a participant
Authors: Reykowski Janusz
Published: March 2020

The Round Table (RT) Talks in Poland in February-April 1989 initiated rapid transition from an authoritarian political system and a centralized, state-controlled economy to democratic capitalism. They also triggered a cascade of changes across the whole of Eastern Europe (the former Soviet block). In this paper I analyze the psychological factors that contributed to success of the talks. During the RT talks, the representatives of the ruling party in Poland („communists”) negotiated with the representatives of „Solidarity” (“democratic opposition”) - the very broad socio-political movement representing Polish aspirations to democracy and sovereignty, separate from the Soviet Union. The paper describes the organization of the negotiations (a complex structure with about 700 participants) and the sources of an initial deep antagonism between the two sides. It addresses the main psychological factors that made it possible for this antagonism to be overcome and for the development of an agreed plan to democratize the Polish political system. This includes an analysis of: the general approach to negotiations; the initial definitions of the negotiating situation and the ways in which these definitions changed; the psychological characteristics of the negotiating situation which fostered cooperative attitudes amongst the negotiations, including in particular the role of group forces. The paper also discusses more generally the relationship between psychological factors and objective conditions in achieving (or impeding) positive outcomes to negotiations around entrenched, seemingly untractable, political conflicts.
The Polish Round Table as a blueprint for “successful” social change? Some thoughts on “liberal hindsight” in the social sciences
Authors: Kende Anna , van Zomeren Martijn
Published: March 2020

The Polish Round Table offers a rare historical example where negotiations between representatives of opposing political sides achieved major political transformation in a peaceful way. Such an outcome should undoubtedly be labeled a success. However, in our commentary, taking the example of the Polish Round Table, we take a critical look at the interpretation of success of social movements by social scientists. In line with the ethos of social sciences, social scientists value (harmoniously achieved) progressive types of change, such as the change that followed the negotiations of the Polish Round Table. Indeed, when it comes to the Round Table, our definition of success may be blurred by the political evaluation of the changes of 1989 from a liberal perspective. The target articles point out the importance of specific structural conditions (both internal and international) and psychological processes (perceptions of power, efficacy and moral commitment) that led to the successful outcome. We therefore argue that it is pivotal to delineate the conditions of success, if we want to apply them to other contexts without bias. Neither hindsight, nor liberal bias are problematic per se, but they can evoke a form of wishful thinking that, as scientists, we may want to treat with some skepticism.

Water-Assisted Production of Polypropylene/Boehmite Composites
Authors: Lendvai László
Published: March 2020

In this study polypropylene (PP) matrix-based boehmite alumina (BA) reinforced composites were prepared batchwise in an internal mixer. BA particles up to 10 wt.% were incorporated by 1. traditional melt mixing and 2. in a novel, Water-Assisted (WA) way, called fast evaporation mixing, during which BA was dispersed in PP with the use of an aqueous carrier medium. The WA way with pure water as medium proved to be ineffective because of the presence of the Leidenfrost effect. Therefore, an additional agent, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) was used to increase the boiling temperature of the water. Mechanical, morphological and thermal properties of the composites were determined. Scanning electron microscopy images revealed a partially dispersed structure of BA within the PP matrix in all cases, where aggregates and dispersed particles were identified as well. The size of the agglomerates observed was the smallest when BA was incorporated by being dispersed in water/CMC firstly. The mechanical tests results indicated that the reinforcing effect of BA was also most prominent in this case. However, CMC had an opposite effect on PP, than BA thus reducing the overall enhancement in mechanical properties. Differential scanning calorimetry showed an increase in the crystallinity ratio of PP with increasing BA content, which indicates a nucleating effect of BA.

Authors: Muslim Muslim , Sukiyah H , Rahman Arif
Published: March 2020

This study aims to investigates a phenomenon of bilingualism in which the use of Target language (English) is switched to target Indonesia, known as code switching (CS). More specifically, the study focuses on the types of CS and the functions of CS in EFL classrooms setting. The data were obtained from classroom observations through audio recording and field notes from two different English classes. The finding reveals that both the teachers and the students employed three types of CS: inter-sentential, tag-switching, and inter-sentential switching in different contexts. Furthermore, the different frequency of CS functions employed by teachers and students’ occurs both in two classes for two reasons: for social and pedagogical functions. Socially, CS in this study served as (1) conveying teacher’s admonition, (2) requesting for help, (3) helping other students, (4) commenting on the students’ unsatisfactory answers, and (5) building unofficial interaction among the students. Pedagogically, CS served to (1) explain or repeat ununderstandable utterances which has been said previously in order to help students understand it, (2) check the students’ understanding to the new words or expression introduced in the lesson, (3) translate sentence when students learn about grammatical features (4) repair self mistakes, (5) clarify teachers’ misunderstanding, and (6) initiate a question.
WALL MAGAZINE AS MEDIA IN GRASPING PUPILS’ READING INTEREST AT PRIMARY LEVEL
Authors: Astuty Diah , Fathurrahman Fathurrahman
Published: March 2020

The paper aims to describe the literacy movement initiated by Indonesian Government. Since there is disproportional distribution of literacy exposures between the pupils who are living in urban areas and the pupils who are living in rural areas, it needs important roles of teachers and school managements mainly for those at rural areas in developing and improving reading habits for their pupils. The wall magazines can be used as affordable media in grasping pupils’ reading interest at primary level. The appropriate procedures in using wall magazines at primary schools can support divergent purposes to make the pupils get interested in reading. The use of wall magazines is also intended to create reading environment for the pupils in order to learn and apply the literacy movement program at early level. The appropriate use of strategies in using wall magazine is planned to train the pupils learning how to read and think critically about the textual materials that are provided by using attractive and appropriate visual mode. The study would be conducted as case-study in describing the procedures and the use of wall magazine at SDN Pamolokan 3 at Sumenep as a part of  Literacy Movement program at school (which known as Gerakan Literasi Sekolah or GLS). The data of this study would be qualitative data in the forms of questionnaires results and interviews.
