Progression of AA Amyloidosis (Sequence of Amyloid A Deposition) in the Pancreas - A Postmortem Clinicopathologic Study of 161 Patients
Authors: M Bely
Published: November 2022

The aim of our study was to determine the prevalence and severity of systemic AA amyloidosis (sAAa) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), to specify amyloid A deposits in different tissue structures of the pancreas, to outline the development of pancreatic AA amyloidosis (pAAa), and to estimate the role of sAAa and pAAa in mortality. Patients and Methods: At the National Institute of Rheumatology 9475 patients died between 1969 and 1992; among them 161 with RA and all of them were autopsied. RA was confirmed clinically according to the criteria of the American College of Rheumatology (ACR). sAAa was specified histologically, based on evaluation of 5 organs (heart, lung, liver, kidney and pancreas). Tissue samples of pancreas were available for histologic evaluation in 118 of 161 patients. Amyloid A deposition was diagnosed according to Romhányi. The correlations between different patient cohorts were determined by the Student (Welch) t-probe. Results: sAAa complicated RA in 29 (24.58 %) of 118 patients. sAAa was histologically excluded in 89 (75.42 %) of 118 RA patients. The pancreas was involved in 26 (89.66 %) of 29 patients. Amyloid A deposits were not present in the pancreas in 3 (10.34 %) of 29 RA patients with sAAa. sAAa or pAAa complicated RA in both sexes, and at any time in the course of the disease. Discussion and Conclusion: Systemic AAa is one of the main and most insidious complications of rheumatoid arthritis affecting the pancreas with high prevalence and severity. sAAa is related to the cardiovascular system, and pAAa is connected with it. In sAAa the amyloid A deposition in the pancreas starts after a latent stage. Systemic and pancreatic amyloid a deposition is a progressive and cumulative process, involving in its early stage only a few structures in the pancreas, and increasingly more in later stages of the disease. Amyloid a deposition starts in the most frequently involved structures of the pancreas with more massive deposits. The chronology of amyloid A deposition allows an indirect assessment of the stage of pancreatic amyloidosis, which may have a prognostic value in everyday surgical pathology as well
Agenesis of the Gallbladder: About A Case
Authors: NE Khabiz
Published: November 2022

The agenesis of the gallbladder is a rare, unsung congenital anomaly, presenting itself in different clinical forms. The ultrasound balance sheet often describes a lichen-atrophic vesicle, which can lead to unnecessary and potentially dangerous surgery. We report the case of a 45-year-old patient with no history of Cholecystitis, with cholestasis jaundice and whose ultrasound diagnosis of lichen-atrophic vesicle was questioned. Magnetic resonance imaging (Cholangio-MRI) has led to the diagnosis of gallbladder agenesis. No hepatic or pancreatic abnormalities, the GB couldn’t be found in its normal site, or in an ectopic place. Endoscopic retrogradeCholangio-Pancreatography with sphincterotomy was done to extract the GB stones and to confirm the diagnosis GB agenesis. The evolution has been marked by the improvement of jaundice and the stabilization of laboratory findings.
Assessing the Quality of Operation Notes in a Teaching Hospital
Authors: F Huda
Published: November 2022

Operation notes are very essential written clinical document in the surgical journey of the patient. In spite of being essential, it is left to be written by surgical residents. The Royal College of Surgeons guidance, Good Clinical Practice, with its most recent version in 2014, dictates that surgeons must ensure that all medical records are accurate, comprehensive, legible and contemporaneous. Aim: This study was aimed to compare the quality of operation notes in the Department of General Surgery against the set standards of The Royal College of Surgeons and also to identify the possible shortcomings with a view to suggest practice improving solutions. Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective study done in the Department of General Surgery at All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Rishikesh between 1st May 2017 to 31st August 2017. Inclusion criteria were all the patients who had undergone major surgery between the study period and whose operation notes was available in the record. Results: Total of 173 operation notes meet the inclusion criteria and were included in the study which were compared with 27 core variables of operation notes as per The Royal College of Surgeons standards. None of the operation notes analyzed in this study completed all the 27 standard variables. Conclusion: Improving the quality of operation notes automatically improves the communication among healthcare workers and helps to prevent errors. We recommend a formal training in writing operation notes to medical graduates and residents to improve the quality of operation notes.
The Expected Pandemic of Mild-Alzheimer (≈Type 3 Diabetes), How to Combat?
Authors: Vincent van Ginneken
Published: November 2022

With the increasing aging of the world population, the share in the population with mild Alzheimer's (m-ADs) - also referred to as type-3 diabetes - is increasing. Rough estimates indicate that by 2050 around 140 million people will suffer from this disease, especially in developed countries but with an increasing morbidity in Low- and Middle-Income countries. m-ADs can be characterized by senile plaques that consist of extracellular amyloid beta (Aβ) deposition while neurofibrillary tangles (NFT) -consisting of hyperphosphorylated tau which are located intracellular in Alzheimer Diseased brain- are a second feature. It must be emphasized that these are the consequences of the disease and not the cause. These amyloid plaques have also been observed in other organs of patients with poorly treated type 2 diabetes such as pancreas, liver, kidney and heart, so it must be emphasized that they are not characteristic of the brain alone. But what is then consequently the cause of m-ADs? The idea was first that the brain produced Insulin to a lesser extent, but a landmark study using LC-MS techniques by van Ginneken, et al. indicated that in post mortem Type Diabetes brain donors more saturated bonds occur, making the brain more rigid and the Insulin molecule less likely to reach its destination, leading to neural death. A second hypothesized cause is the formation of plaques in the fluid mosaic membrane of poly unsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), as a result of which the Insulin molecule is less able to invade the human brain, which also leads to neural death. Finally, the role of Sphingomyelins as lipids in foods such as soy and milk should be mentioned, which can be converted via the Land's cycle in the brain to toxic Ceramide, which also could lead to neural death. In addition, in a small cohort of patients from the Dutch brain bank -where post mortem histopathological the brain disease has been assessed in addition to body characteristics- it appears that m-ADs or also Type-3 Diabetes is independent of Body Mass Index (BMI).

Authors: P Mathew
Published: November 2022

Introduction: Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) can have varied manifestations, commonest presentation being as chronic liver disease. The data on the disease profile in India is scanty compared to the West. Aim: To study the clinical, biochemical, histological profile and response to treatment in patients with Auto-immune Hepatitis in Indian population. Methods: This is a Retrospective analysis of the twenty one (12 M = 57.1%; 9 F = 42.9%) patients diagnosed with AIH according to simplified criteria for diagnosis of AIH, in the last three years (2017-2019) in the department of medical gastroenterology, Vydehi Institute of Medical Sciences, Bangalore, Karnataka, India. Results: AIH accounted for 4.3% of all the liver diseases diagnosed during the last three years. Incidence of AIH was higher in males (12 M = 57.1%; 9 F = 42.9%; male to female ratio was 1.3:1), most common presenting symptom was jaundice, sixteen (57.1%), followed by ascites seven (33%) patients. Extra-hepatic manifestation was seen in fourteen (66.7%) patients. Eleven (52.3%) patients had cirrhosis with four (19%) patients having compensated cirrhosis, five (23.8%) patients having de-compensated cirrhosis, two (9.5%) patients presenting with features of acute on chronic liver failure, two (9.5%) patients presenting with acute hepatitis and seven (33.3%) patients presenting with features of chronic hepatitis. Nineteen (91%) patients had Type I AIH, one (4.5%) patient had Type II AIH and 1 patient had seronegative AIH. Oral budesonide was started in 11(52%) of patients, 8(38%) were started on oral prednisolone and 2(10%) patients were started on intravenous methyl prednisolone in view of severe auto-immune hepatitis. Azathioprine was added in 19 patients and dose was modified according to the clinical response and side effects. Four (21.05%) patients developed drug intolerance, out of which one patient had severe adverse effect in the form of acute pancreatitis secondary to Azathioprine. Mycophenolate Mofetil (MMF) was given with good response. Mortality was noted in two (9.52%) patients.
Increased Risk of Hepatocellular Carcinoma in Patient with Inflammatory Bowel Disease and Hemochromatosis: A Case Report
Authors: M Tarocchi
Published: November 2022

Inflammatory bowel diseases could be associated with extra-intestinal manifestation; in this report we describe the case of a patient with ulcerative colitis who was diagnosed with genetic hemochromatosis (homozygosity for C282Y in the HFE gene) after a colitis relapse with high levels of serum ferritin (2000 ng/mL). After the genetic diagnosis patient underwent to an upper abdomen US with CEUS, with evidence of a 2 cm nodule in VIIs, suggestive for hepatocellular carcinoma, then confirmed with MR and CT scan. Patient underwent surgical resection of the lesion with histological confirmation of the malignant neoplasia. A correlation between the two diseases is not clear, but inflammatory bowel diseases and genetic hemochromatosis have some similarity: both diseases are related with functional reduction of hepcidin and in both diseases the mutations are located in chromosome 6p. Furthermore, regarding therapies, there is no evidence that iron chelation therapies could aggravate symptoms of ulcerative colitis, instead a chronic therapy with mesalazine could induce a chronic liver damage, worsening the hemochromatosis related liver damage.

Intestinal angiodysplasia is a vascular abnormality where blood vessels are ectatic, tortuous with minimal muscle lining, being able to affect any segment of the gastrointestinal tract, showing single or multiple lesions at different sites, with the left hemicolon the most frequent location in children. The pathophysiological mechanism that originates it is still unknown, as is the epidemiology of this condition. The spectrum of clinical manifestations is wide, being able to debut and recur at any time in life with hemorrhage of varying intensity. Endoscopic and radiological tools are used for diagnosis. Treatment options include pharmacological, endoscopic therapies and surgical resection. In this article we describe two pediatric cases (6 months and 7 years respectively) which presented with recurrent gastrointestinal bleeding in need of transfusion therapy, in whom it was not possible to identify the origin of the disease until later, with adequate control of symptoms. After definitive treatment, which in one of them was total gastrectomy
Xanthogranulomatous Cholecystitis: Surgical Dilemma and Difficulty
Authors: Sarwal Ankush
Published: November 2022

Xanthogranulomatous Cholecystitis (XGC) is difficult to diagnose by surgeons preoperatively. XGC is often mistaken for, and may predispose to, gallbladder carcinoma (GBC). Most of the patients present with features of chronic cholecystitis and pain. Radiological features can be helpful for assuming XGC but cannot rule out any other pathology. Cholecystectomy is encouraged to be performed as soon as the diagnosis of XGC is established to prevent the occurrence of complications. However laparoscopic cholecystectomy may not be feasible in all patients and conversion to open or subtotal cholecystectomy is done. XGC can only be confirmed by histological findings, thus always causing a surgical dilemma and difficulty for the surgeon.

The Design of Automatic Summarization of Indonesian Texts Using a Hybrid Approach
Authors: Dewi Kania Evita , Widiastuti Nelly Indriani
Published: November 2022

This study aims to design a model for automatic text summarization in Indonesian. Automatic text summarization is a system that reduces the number of sentences without losing important information in the document. There are three approaches in making automatic text summarization, namely: extractive, abstractive, and hybrid. The extractive approach is to select a core sentence without changing it to a new sentence. The abstractive approach is to construct new sentences that describe the contents of the document. Meanwhile, the hybrid approach designed in this study is a combination of extractive and abstractive approaches. By designing automatic text summarization in Indonesian with a hybrid approach, it is hoped that the results issued by the system will be more like man-made summaries and have higher readability. The design made is specifically for the input of a document. The stages of automatic text summarization are divided into two, namely preprocessing and process. In the Preprocessing stage, sentence separation, tokenization, coreference resolution, stop words removal, feature extraction are carried out. There are two stages of making the summary, namely the extraction stage, to select important sentences and the abstraction stage, to select words and arrange them into summary sentences. Further research can be carried out for input of longer documents and the input is in the form of multi documents
Engaging Student Participation for Improving Quality of Lecturing Process in Higher Education Institution
Authors: Heryandi Andri
Published: November 2022

The quality of the lecturing process is an important part for higher education to obtain output in the form of quality graduates in accordance with the vision, mission, and goals of the higher education institution. One way this is done is by checking the suitability of the teaching process that has been carried out with a predetermined curriculum. Teaching suitability checks are usually carried out by matching the lecturing material that has been delivered by the teacher in a lecture, whether it is in accordance with the lecture syllabus. This can be biased when the teacher (as the entity that is assessed) has to enter the suitability of the lecturing data. Therefore, it is necessary for other parties who are also directly involved in the lecturing process to verify the lecturing process that has been entered by the teacher. This research is focused on making a quality monitoring system for the lecturing process that involves students as the party verifying the lecturing process. This verification process will use media in the form of email and electronic messages in the form of chat in the chat application. When a teacher enters the lecturing process data, which consists of the material presented and the students who are taking part in the lecture, a message to verify the lecturing process will be sent via email and chat to students. Students can verify whether the course is in accordance with the course syllabus plan.  By checking the conformity charged to the learning participants, a better level of trust will be obtained in order to improve the quality of learning

Published: November 2022

Instructive frameworks normally utilize old-style strategies for execution assessment. In this framework, understudy execution relies upon Quiz outcomes and is assessed uniquely as progress or disappointment. Elective, non-traditional execution assessment strategies might be utilized, like fuzzy rationale, a numerical procedure of set-hypothesis that can be applied to many types of dynamic remembering research for designing and man-made brainpower. This review proposes another presentation assessment technique dependent on fuzzy rationale frameworks. Understudy execution of Control Technique Laboratory in University State of Padang Technical Education Faculty, electronics engineering Department, was done with fuzzy rationale and it was contrasted and old-style assessing strategy. Study Quizs are notes in which twenty understudies took the control procedure lab course. Assessment of the outcomes showed varieties among the traditional and fuzzy rationale techniques. In spite of the fact that exhibition assessment utilizing fuzzy rationale is confounded and requires extra programming, it gives some assessment benefits. fuzzy rationale assessment is adaptable and gives numerous assessment alternatives, while the old-style strategy holds fast to consistent numerical estimation. At the implementation stage, the instructor liable for the lab implementation can alter the scopes of participation capacities and rules, allowing non-homogenous yet adaptable and target execution assessment.

Sensor and Transducer is one of the subjects that must be followed by students of the Automotive Engineering Department, Faculty of Engineering, Padang State University, which weighs 2 credits. In accordance with the RPS for the Sensor and Transducer Course, there are several types of sensors that are the subject of study, one of which is an inductive sensor. Inductive sensor applications are applied in the automotive world such as Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKP), Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP), Vilocity Sensor. To make it easier to understand each sensor applied in the automotive world, students are required to master the basic concepts of the inductive sensor. One of the ways to increase student competence in the field of inductive sensors is the use of teaching aids during the learning process. Inductive sensor learning media in the Laboratory at the Automotive Engineering Department still uses analog processors, to support the development of digital technology today, so the authors provide an alternative by making teaching aids in the form of an Arduino-based Inductive Sensor Mini Trainer. This study uses the Research and Development (R&D) method which consists of Define, Design, Development, and Desseminate. The assembled inductive sensor mini trainer was tested for accuracy, and repeatibility test as well as feasibility test from media experts and users. The results of the research on the product trials carried out, obtained an accuracy level of 96.21%, the sensor output has linearity, the repeatibility test is obtained with an average of 0.1%. The level of product feasibility from Media Experts, is 94.68% and 96.23% from Respondents. So it can be concluded that the Inductive Sensor Mini Trainer is very suitable to be used as a learning medium.
Apply Parametric Shared Frailty Models to Colorectal Cancer Patients
Authors: Hameed Hevi J. , Faqe Mohammad M.
Published: November 2022

Colorectal cancer is a combination of colon and rectal cancer that indicates an abnormal growth of cells in either the colon or rectum and is named according to its original location. After treatment, cancer may return to the primary site of the original tumor or to a different location in the body once or more, which is called recurrent. This paper aimed to model this type of data from 128 colorectal cancer patients collected at Hiwa hospital in Sulaimani considering the gamma shared and inverse Gaussian shared frailty models for analyzing the patient’s survival times with colorectal cancer recurrence and estimate the prognostic factor’s impact on their survival. Comparison of the results of these models with those without a frailty model using Weibull, log-logistic, and lognormal as a baseline distribution. To identify the best model for the data the (AIC) Akaike Information Criterion and (BIC) Bayesian Information Criterion were also used. Results showed that the cancer stage was the only significant factor affecting survival in recurrent events, as well as evidence of existing heterogeneity in colorectal patients. According to (AIC) and (BIC), the Weibull as baseline distribution with shared Gamma frailty model proved the most efficient model for the colorectal recurrent data. In Conclusion, the shared frailty model is better than no frailty when analyzing this type of data.
The Preventive Effects of Urtica dioica ‎Extract and Nanoparticle on Oxidative Stress ‎and Lipid Profile in Hyperlipidemic Male ‎Rats
Authors: Othman Banw A. , Nanakali Nadir M.
Published: November 2022

Cardiovascular diseases are the major factor in human premature death and disability and they are becoming more common worldwide. Individual atherosclerosis risk factors such obesity, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, and smoking all lead to an increase in oxidative stress. As a result, oxidative stress is thought to be a major factor in the development of atherosclerosis. Heart disease risk factors that have been well-documented include elevated blood lipid levels. Significant gaps in the treatment of CVDs still exist, in addition to making healthy lifestyle changes and using lipid-lowering medications as part of primary CVD prevention and therapy regimens. Natural extracts are a rich source of biomolecules that can be used as complex reagents for the biogenic synthesis of silver nanoparticles as well as antioxidant medicines or dietary supplements. The current study estimates the anti-oxidant and protective activity of Urica dioica 200mg/kg extract water and ethanol with its silver nanoparticles 15mg/kg on lipid profile in induced hyperlipidemia rats feeding on high fat diet then evaluate lipid profile and MDA, SOD and GSH of the serum after 40 days, also characterization of AgNPs done by UV-Vis absorption, FTIR, XRD and SEM. The result demonstrates that the successful synthesis of NPs and Urtica dioica has a favorable impact on lipid profile and can function as a good antioxidant that can be employed as a protective agent against rising lipids and oxidative stress. However, further research studies need to investigate the safety and activity of different dose of AgNPS of Urtica dioica.

Authors: Jain Dr. Rashmi
Published: November 2022

Dina Mehta is a Parsi writer who has exposed the atrocities inflicted upon women in a patriarchal society through Getting Away with Murder. She has unravelled the layers of pain through the story of three friends- Mallika, Sonali and Razia in Getting away with Murder. In this play, Dina Mehta has raised her voice on various issues of violence against women like rape, child sexual abuse, female foeticide, gender inequality and blind adherence to superstitions. A woman, whether house wife or a working woman, educated or uneducated has to go through the same plight of turmoil (physical, mental, emotional etc.) In this paper, by involving theories on violence, I have tried to analyse the truth which Dina Mehta has revealed through her play Getting Away with Murder. The play ends on a positive note of survival which became possible due to the close bond of trust and cooperation between three friends.

Monografia przedstawia istotę i znaczenie kanałów dystrybucji i możliwości sprzedażowych oraz narzędzi promocyjnych w funkcjonowaniu współczesnego rolnictwa. Głównym celem jest diagnoza kierunków i perspektyw rozwoju konwencjonalnych i ekologicznych gospodarstw rolnych, które będą funkcjonowały w warunkach określonych w Planie Strategicznym dla WPR. Monografia ma charakter studium teoretyczno-empirycznego. Zawiera wyniki badań ankietowych zrealizowanych w roku 2022 wśród rolników z terenu województwa warmińsko-mazurskiego. W badaniach udział wzięło 275 przedstawicieli gospodarstw konwencjonalnych oraz 158 przedstawicieli gospodarstw ekologicznych. Rolnicy wykazują wstrzemięźliwe postawy wobec potencjalnych inwestycji w swoje gospodarstwa. Niezależnie od rodzaju produkcji prowadzonej w gospodarstwach konwencjonalnych i ekologicznych inwestycje w rozwój gospodarstw związane są najczęściej z: zakupem maszyn i urządzeń, zakupem ziemi oraz z budową czy rozbudową budynków. Do najważniejszych ograniczeń umożliwiających inwestycje należą zbyt wysokie koszty kredytów i zbyt niskie dopłaty. Ronicy dostrzegają również szansę rozwoju w postaci dostępności do rozbudowanej infrastruktury bezpośredniego handlu detalicznego. Wydaje się to szczególnie korzystne dla gospodarstw ekologicznych. Najbardziej popularnymi kanałami zbytu produktów jest sprzedaż ich do: hurtowni, przetwórni czy firm zajmujących się konfekcjonowaniem. Współpraca realizowana jest na podstawie kontraktów z przetwórcami i długoterminowych umów handlowych. Wyniki przedstawionych badań mogą być inspiracją do dalszych pogłębionych analiz i dyskusji.
