Percepção dos Pacientes Em Relação Aos Benefícios da Intervenção Coronariana Percutânea Na Doença Arterial Coronariana Estável
Authors: Moura Stefany Casarin , Antunes Murillo de Oliveira
Published: September 2022

Introdução: A intervenção coronária percutânea (ICP) é um procedimento comum para aliviar a obstrução de uma artéria coronária estenótica. As crenças dos pacientes sobre a necessidade do procedimento e sua eficácia são moldadas pela interação com os médicos assistentes. Sendo assim, toda decisão envolvendo o procedimento deve ser tomada de maneira conjunta entre o paciente e o médico, e este deve ajudar o sujeito a compreender a probabilidade dos benefícios esperados e os riscos a serem enfrentados na intervenção, atuando como um parceiro experiente.
Objetivo: Avaliar a percepção dos pacientes referente aos benefícios e riscos da ICP baseando-se em informações dadas pelo médico assistente.
Método: Por meio de um estudo descritivo longitudinal realizado com pacientes diagnosticados com Insuficiência Coronariana internados no HUSF.
Resultados: Ao analisar os benefícios esperados, numa fração da amostra, por meio da realização da ICP, 26% dos pacientes gostariam de evitar o infarto agudo do miocárdio, 26% queriam diminuir sua possibilidade de morrer, 10% buscavam viver mais, 40% desejavam diminuir as dores no peito, 5% gostariam de tomar menos medicamentos, 25% desejavam diminuir a dispneia e 15% não sabiam responder. Todos os pacientes disseram que os riscos do procedimento não foram abordados na conversa, e apenas um paciente sabia informar possíveis riscos por conhecimento prévio.
Conclusão: Notou-se a existência de falhas na comunicação entre o médico e o paciente, evidenciada pela superestimação dos benefícios e subestimação dos riscos na realização da ICP.
Enantioselective total synthesis of putative dihydrorosefuran, a monoterpene with an unique 2,5-dihydrofuran structure
Authors: Torres-García Irene , López-Martínez Josefa L , López-Domene Rocío , Muñoz-Dorado Manuel , Rodríguez-García Ignacio , Álvarez-Corral Miriam
Published: September 2022

An original synthesis of the structure of dihydrorosefuran, a compound allegedly identified in Artemisia pallens and Tagetes mendocina, has been developed. The key steps in the five-step 36% overall yield synthesis are a CpTiIIICl2 mediated Barbier-type allenylation of a linear aldehyde and the formation of a 2,5-dihydrofuran scaffold through a Ag(I)-mediated cyclization. Neither of the reported spectral data for dihydrorosefuran match those of the synthetic product, suggesting that the isolated compound from Tagetes mendocina is in fact the natural product rosiridol, while the real structure of the product from Artemisia pallens remains unknown.
Kur’ân-ı Kerîm’de ‘Bel’ Edatının İçerdiği Manalar ve Türkçeye Çeviri Problemi
Authors: DEMİRBAŞ Servet
Published: September 2022

Dil sürekli değişen ve gelişen bir yapıdır. Dilde varlığını sürdüren her lafzın taşıdığı bir mana ve değer vardır. Bu manalar, lafızların ilişki kurduğu diğer kavramlarla zenginleşir. Arap dilinin ve Kur’ân-ı Kerîm’in en önemli dil özelliklerinde biri de çok anlamlılıktır. Çok anlamlı lafızların ifade ettiği manalar siyak ve sibakın delaletiyle tespit edilmeye çalışılır. Dilin yapısı gereği çok anlamlı lafızlar birbirine yakın manalar ifade ettikleri gibi birbirine zıt anlamları da içermektedir. Bu anlamlardan hangisinin tercih edileceği karinelerle belirlenir. Kur’ân-ı Kerîm’in anlaşılmasında ve tercümeler yoluyla Arapça dışında başka dillere aktarılmasında çok anlamlı lafızların ifade ettikleri manaları bağlamına göre belirlemek büyük önem arz etmektedir. Bu özellik, kelime türlerinden isim ve fiilde olduğu gibi edatlarda da vardır. Edatlar, cümleyi oluşturan ana unsurlar ya da metni oluşturan cümleler arasında anlam ilişki kurarak metni inşa etmeyi kolaylaştırırlar. Arap dilinde ve Kur’ân-ı Kerîm’de kullanılan edatların kullanımı ve taşıdıkları anlam zenginliğiyle ilgili erken dönemlerden itibaren çok derinlikli çalışmalar yapılmıştır. Bu çalışmalar gramer eserlerinde, tefsirlerde, fıkıh usûlü eserlerinde dağınık olarak yapıldığı gibi sadece edatları konu edinen eserlerin yanı sıra sadece bir edattan bahseden çalışmalar da yapılmıştır. Tercüme çalışmaları açısından bakıldığında kaynak dildeki lafızların cümledeki konumlarına göre taşıdıkları manaları doğru tespit ederek hedef dildeki doğru karşılığını bulmak, tercümenin sıhhati açısından kaçınılmazdır. Bu başarılamadığı zaman kaynak dildeki metnin anlamı hedef dile aktarılırken ya buharlaşacak ya da esas metnin sahibinin kastetmediği anlamlar hedef dile aktarılacaktır. Bu durum kaynak metnin yanlış anlaşılmasına sebep olacağı gibi hedef dilin okurları açısından da içinden çıkılması zor anlam kargaşasına sebep olacaktır. Bu çalışma, Arap dilinde ve Kur’ân’ı Kerîm’de çokça kullanılan ve Allah Teâlâ’nın muradının anlaşılmasında önemli roller üstlenen “/بلBel” edatının kullanımını ve ifade ettiği manaları inceledikten sonra, bu manaların Türkçeye çevirisindeki problemler seçilen bazı meâller üzerinden tetkik edilecektir.
Ayrık-Beyinler Vakasından Teslise Yol Çıkar mı?
Authors: YILMAZ Aykut Alper
Published: September 2022

Teslis, Hristiyanlığın en tartışmalı doktrinlerinden biridir. Teslisi böylesine tartışmalı kılan temel husus, Tanrı’nın nasıl olup da aynı anda hem tek bir varlık hem de üç farklı kişi olduğudur. Zira teslis doktrinine göre, zikredilen üç ilahi kişi birbiriyle özdeş değildir ama buna rağmen her üçü de aynı Tanrı’dır. Bu durum, pek çok Hristiyan tarafından da sorunlu görülmüş ve bunu açıklamak için birbirinden farklı çözümler geliştirilmiştir. Yakın zamanda bu meseleye ilişkin öne sürülen çözümlerden biri de beyin yarıküreleri birbirinden ayrılmış hastaların psikolojik durumlarından yola çıkarak bir varlığın birden çok kişi olabileceğini iddia eder. Bu sayede tek bir varlık olan Tanrı’nın aynı anda üç kişi olabilmesine de bir örnek bulunmuş olur. Hiç değilse bunun mümkün olduğunu gösteren bir örnek, kimilerine göre, Tanrı’nın üç kişi olmasının imkânsız olduğu iddiasına gölge düşürür. Bu bağlamda ayrık beyin vakalarını öne çıkaran husus, kişinin ne olduğu konusunda tartışmalara ve farklı yorumlara kapı aralayan sonuçlarıdır. Bu vakanın en ilginç özelliği, cerrahi bir müdahaleyle beyin yarıküreleri arasındaki korpus kallosum bağı kesilerek yarıküreleri birbirinden ayrılan hastaların, bazı koşullarda birden fazla kişi gibi hareket edebilmeleridir. Bir başka deyişle, tek bir insan bedeninde birden fazla kişi konumlanmış gibidir. Zira birbirinden ayrılan yarıküreler, zaman zaman birbirinden bağımsız arzu, istek ve kararlara sahip olabilmektedir. Bu ise kimilerine göre, ayrı bir kişi olmanın yeterli bir göstergesidir. Kimi Hristiyanlar, bu vakadan hareketle bir benzetme kurarak Tanrı’nın da –tek bir varlık olmakla birlikte– aynı anda üç kişi olabileceğini iddia eder. Bu iddianın önde gelen savunucusu Trenton Merricks olmuştur. Bu çalışmada öncelikle, Merricks’in, niçin mevcut teslis açıklamalarını yetersiz bulduğu ele alınarak, onun diğer teslis açıklamalarına yaptığı eleştirilere yer verilecektir. Ardından ayrık-beyin vakasına ve bu vakanın yorumlarına dair bilgiler verilecektir. Bundan sonra, Merricks’in ayrık-beyin vakasına dayanan bir analojiyle teslisi açıklama çabası incelenecektir. Bu çalışmanın temel iddiası, ayrık-beyin vakasına dair Merricks’in yorumunun, Tanrı’nın birden fazla kişi olduğu sonucuna ulaştırmakta başarısız olduğudur. Üstelik ayrık-beyin vakası Merricks’in istediği şekilde yorumlansa dahi, teslisin mümkün olduğu sonucuna ulaşılamamaktadır. Diğer bir ifadeyle, ayrık-beyin vakalarının doğrudan bir yorumu aslında Tanrı’nın birden fazla kişi olamayacağına işaret etmektedir. Fakat ayrık-beyin vakasından teslise ulaşmaya çalışan argüman, bu sonucu elde edebilmek için vakayı aşırı yorumlamaktadır.
Yitik Cennet: Ütopya mı Gerçek mi? Düşüşten Dirilişe Sezai Karakoç’ta Medeniyet Meselesi
Authors: KILIÇ Emrullah
Published: September 2022

Bu çalışma Sezai Karakoç’un Yitik Cennet adlı eserinden hareketle ortaya koymaya çalıştığı medeniyet tasavvurunu imkân ve sınırları ile soruşturmayı amaçlamaktadır. Karakoç, kriz içerisinde olduğunu düşündüğü medeniyetin yeniden inşa ve idamesini İslam/hakikat ile hayat arasında aydınların sorumluluğunda kurulacak yeni bir irtibatın tesisinde arar. Ona göre, ruhi, sosyal, politik, ekonomik, kültürel, estetik yönleriyle somut İslam ülküsünü yeniden hayata geçirecek olan aydınlar hayata, realiteye ve tarih şuuruna yabancılaşmayacaklardır. Bu anlamda İslam medeniyetinin durumlanışını ya da tavrını üç ana eksene oturtur: Birincisi, teorik temeli belirleyen metafizik perspektif; ikincisi, bu perspektife bağlı bir realizm olarak dünya ve doğa görüşü; üçüncüsü ise ilahi olana teslimiyet. Karakoç’un bu tezinin tecessüm edeceği habitat, devlettir. Devlet her şeyden önce bir ülkü bir ideal ve erdem devletidir. Karakoç bu ideal devletin siyasal formasyonunu Aristoteles ve Farabi’de olduğu gibi belirli erdemlere dayalı site devleti şeklinde düşünür. Karakoç’un teklifi insanın metafiziksel amaçlarına ulaşmayı içeren ahlaki sağduyuya bağlı bir yaşam tarzı ile etiketlenir. Böylece akıl ile duyarlılık arasında denge kurulacak; bu uyum ile inanca ve ahlaka da yer açılarak yeniden doğuşun imkânı bulunabilecektir. Kaynağı ve işlevi bakımından çağdaş medeniyet teorilerinden farklılık gösteren bu medeniyetin yol haritası Kur’an-ı Kerim kıssaları ile oluşturulurken kurucuları da peygamberlerdir. İnsanlık için üretilen yeni bir örgütlenme modeli olan diriliş, herhangi bir görüşün antitezi ya da sentezi olmayıp, hiçleşmeye giden yönelimi yeniden varoluşa devşiren üçüncü bir yoldur. Söz konusu bu yol üç perspektifli bir yönelim üzerine kurulur: Birincisi, insanın Allah’a bakışı; ikincisi, insanın kendine bakışı; üçüncüsü, insanın eşyaya bakışı. Karakoç’a göre diriliş eri bu üçlü kombinasyon içerisinde daha önce kuramadığı uyum ve dengeyi diriliş ruhu çerçevesinde kurabilme imkanına kavuşur. Diriliş medeniyetinin referans değeri ise sevgidir. Karakoç’un düşüncesinde tıpkı Yunus Emre ve Mevlana’da olduğu gibi şeytanı yenen metafizik güç olan sevgi temel değerdir. Karakoç’un Varlık görüşünün sonucu olarak okunabilecek bu varoluş yolu özne (diriliş eri) için kendi oluş yolculuğunda varlığı/nı kat ederken yönünü öncelikle özüne çevirerek ideal olanın kavram yerine mefhum ile karşılanmasını gösteren bir “olma” durumuna gönderme yapar. Karakoç’un yeni bir öznellik girişimi olarak medeniyeti inşa edecek ve özneye ontolojik güvenini inançlar üzerinden sağlayacak ufuk açıcı teklifi son derece önemli olmakla birlikte deneyim alanında karşılaşılacak sorunlarla ilgili hususlarda muğlak kalmaktadır.

Published: September 2022

The research is on traumatic and psychological implications of armed herdsmen invasion of southern Kaduna, Nigeria: A sample of 90 respondents drawn from the five local government areas affected by the activities of armed herdsmen was used for the study. The questionnaire was used as a major instrument for the collection of primary data from respondents; in-depth interviews were conducted to stimulate further information from respondents. Secondary data was sourced from books, journals, newspapers, and online peer-reviewed documents. The routine activity theory was adopted to explain armed herdsmen activities in the Southern Kaduna region of Kaduna State. Findings suggested that armed herdsmen activities have created traumatic and psychological implications on the people of Southern Kaduna who have now been found to live in perpetual fear. The study recommends that government be proactive in curbing the menace of armed herdsmen brigandage in Southern Kaduna and provide a more robust security network through the establishment of more military bases along the borders of the three local governments faced with the challenge of armed herdsmen invasion.
CARBON DIOXIDE CAPTURE AND STORAGE TECHNOLOGIES IN THE ELECTRIC POWER SECTOR – OVERVIEW OF THE RELEVANT SITUATION
Authors: Branimir Loš
Published: September 2022

In the next half century, fossil fuels will be used extensively and the CO2 emission will increase unless new energy policies are put through. There are numerous possibilities for the reduction of the CO2 emission from the energy systems. These include the improvement of energetic efficiency and the switch to renewable and nuclear energy. However, the policy based on these options will, in the best case, solve the problem only partially. Carbon dioxide capture, isolation and storage technologies constitute the second, promising option which can drastically reduce these emissions. Because of that, carbon dioxide capture, isolation, transport and storage have been studied for years. Numerous concepts have been proposed, often of speculative nature- products of abstraction, far from experience and practice. Many of these require great research and developmental efforts before commercialization. Significant progress accomplished in the last ten years enabled some complex technological solutions to come close to commercial application. This article enables a short overview of the relevant situation in carbon dioxide capture, isolation, transport and storage, which could be widely used in the electric power sector two decades from now.
ANALYSIS OF THE OCCURRENCE OF THE NEGATIVE PRICE ON THE EUROPEAN ENERGY EXCHANGE (EEX) ELECTRICITY SPOT MARKET
Authors: Niko Mandić
Published: September 2022

The EEX (European Energy Exchange) has become, along with Nord Pool in Nordic countries, the most significant energy exchange in continental Europe. EEX’s prices and possibilities often represent a reference in the electricity trade on the local or regional markets of European countries. The work also shows and deliberates on the occurrence of negative prices on the EEX electricity spot market at the end of December 2008. The negative price, when predicted and allowed in the market model structure at the energy exchange, mirrors the situation on the market in which the offer has significantly exceeded the demand. Although the achievement of the negative price on the electricity market is more of an exception than a rule, it is interesting to contemplate the reasons for such an unusual occurrence. Since its introduction onto the EEX, the negative market price has been achieved only a few times, mostly in particular hours at night when the consumption of electrical energy is normally reduced. The situation analysed in this work is interesting because the negative price was achieved in the period of a few successive hours and because of the achieved amounts of the negative price, so the work contemplates on possible causes which led to such a situation. Since European electrical power systems are well connected, an analysis has been performed and the work presents how the observed occurrences in western and middle Europe have impacted electricity flows in the Croatian electrical power system and its surrounding.
MAINTAINING DECLARED PERFORMANCE IN GAS TURBINES DURING INCREASED AMBIENT TEMPERATURES
Authors: Marin Begović
Published: September 2022

The classical gas turbine process is characterised by air compression from its surroundings, heating fuel in the combustion chambers, hence causing the created flue gases to expand in the turbine and thus induce mechanical action. The performance of gas turbine depends on anything that affects the airflow density and/or mass at the compressor inlet. The most obvious changes in gas turbine performance is a reduction in power and an increase in specific fuel consumption following an increase in the ambient temperature, resulting in significant deviations of the guaranteed (and achieved) values at ISO conditions. In cooling air at the compressor inlet at increased ambient temperatures, an increase in the mass flow and compression ratio is achieved, thus preventing a reduction in power and an increase in specific fuel consumption. When using gas turbines in combined cycle cogeneration power plants for the production of electrical and thermal power, increasing mass flow through gas turbines leads to an increase in power transferred by the flue gases to the turbine exhaust, and which in the waste heat recovery boiler at the combined cycle plant transfers to the steam turbine cycle. Consequently, the effect at the combined cycle plant is a more significant reduction in specific fuel consumption. The work has used the example of the GE-PG610FA turbine to show the dependency on surrounding climatic conditions, and the manner in which this dependency can be reduced or removed.

Authors: M. Jayashankar  , ALkhafaji Rana
Published: September 2022

Cinnamon oil is derived from the leaves of the cinnamon tree, the essential oil of the plant is extracted by steam distillation, while its bark is used to make cinnamon spice. The present study was conducted to isolate the most important bioactive compounds from cinnamon oil extracted from South India. The thin-layer chromatography (TLC) combined with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) were used to determine and estimate the isolates obtained. It found that the organic phase's highest retention time was 5.433, and the peak area percentage was 88.8 %. The organic phase sample had a high peak area percentage, indicating that there was a lot of bioactive chemical in it. The broad absorption band at 3270 cm-1 is due to the (-OH) group, 1670 and 1623 cm-1 to the C=C group, 1449 and 1381 cm-1 to the (-C-H) group, and the band at 1120 cm-1 to the (-C-O) group. A pseudo molecular ion peak at m/z 275 for a [M+H] +. This study resulted in finding a peak in the positive mode mass spectra, indicating a molecular weight of 274 and the molecular formula of C15H14O5.1H 13CNMR investigations verified the presence of phenol hydroxide groups, two aromatic ring systems, methylene groups, and a phenoxy carbon in the chemical composition of the compound. Moreover, the composition is quite similar to catechins, and this chemical is separated from the organic phase of cinnamon oil. The potent inhibitory activity of the newly synthesized catechin antagonist against S.aureus and E.coli was found to assess cell death by detection of DNA fragments using agarose gel electrophoresis and SEM analysis.
A study on two ethnomedicinal plants and their therapeutic usage for the control of paramphistomosis in vitro
Authors: Priyanka Banerjee  , Jayita Roy  , Datta Sutapa
Published: September 2022

Paramphistomosis is a neglected parasitic disease of livestock caused by the Paramphistomum sp. The prevalence of the trematode is worldwide most abundantly in livestock farming regions such as Australia, Asia, Africa, Eastern Europe, and Russia. The infection causes a huge loss in productivity in the livestock industry. There is no proper treatment for this disease. Herbal medicines are age-old practices in different ethnic groups in treating helminth infections with less or no side effects. As a treatment regimen for paramphistomosis adult Paramphistomum collected from the local slaughter house were exposed to different concentrations of crude ethanolic leaf extracts of Adhatoda vasica and Ricinus communis. The efficacy of plants was assessed on the basis of the motility of the flukes. The plant extracts show a reduction in parasite viability in a dose-dependent manner. The parasite released numerous eggs may be for reducing the cost of living in terms of oxygen demand and nutrient availability as much as possible. The paralyzing and killing effect of leaf extract of R.communis was higher than the A.vasica leaf extract though both plant extracts possess anthelmintic effects. Therefore these plants show potential for treating helminth infection and can be used as a herbal medicine in combating paramphistomosis.
The positive impact of partial substitution of fish meal by a meal mixture of duckweed and mealworm larvae on the diets of Nile tilapia fry (Oreochromis niloticus Linnaeus, 1758)

Published: September 2022

In ordre to promote aquaculture in the south of the country, and specifically, to reduce the cost of feeding farmed fish, this study was carried out to evaluate the effect of partial replacement of fishmeal with a mixture of duckweed meal (DWM) and mealworm larvae (WLM) on growth performance, feed utilization and carcass composition of Nile tilapia. Eight-week feeding experiment was conducted on fry of O. niloticus (average initial weight: 0.87 ± 0.23 g). Four isoproteic diets (38.52 ± 0.11% crude protein) comprising control diet D0 and three test diets (D1 to D3) were formulated and tested in triplicates. To satisfy EAA requirements in test diets, the ratios 1: 5; 2: 4 ; 4: 2 between DWM and WLM were used respectively in partial replacement for fishmeal. No significant differences (P > 0.05) were observed in survival, growth and feed utilization. On the other hand, the compositions of the carcasses showed strong significant differences (P < 0.05) except ash contents. The carcass lipid increased proportionally with the inclusion of WLM, but the reverse was true for the moisture content. However, the high contents of retained proteins were obtained in the ratios 0 : 0 and 4 : 2 between D0 and D3. It is concluded that fishmeal could be replaced by a meal mixture of DWM and WLM up to the proportion (4 : 2, respectively) in the feed of O. niloticus without adverse effects on growth and nutrient utilization and most importantly, reduce the cost of production up to 29.8% which would have a positive impact on post-feeding and therefore the financial management of an aquaculture farm.

Aristolochia longa has been known by its potentiel to cure various diseases.This study was aimd to estimate the antioxidant activity and tannin content of A.longa leaves and roots. Liquid-liquid fractionation by using three solvants was experimented for extraction of tannin from leaves and roots.Then the fractions were oven-dried and powdered to determine the condensed tannin content and antioxidant activity by acidic vanillin, DPPH radical scavenging activity and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) methods.The qualitative analysis was releazed by high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (HPLC DAD-MS).The highest extraction yield was obtained by roots N-butanol fraction (5.15±0.47%).The maximum tannin content value was noted in roots N-butanol fraction (3.90±0.24 mg QUE/g DM) followed by leaves ethyl acetate fraction (3.03±0.01 mg QUE/g DM).The IC50 values of DPPH radical scavenging activity varied significantly from IC50=0.123±0.009mg/ml to 3.737±0.56 mg/ml. Since, the FRAP values ranged from EC50=0.066±0.002 mg/ml to 4,00±0,2 mg/ml. The highest antioxydant ability was observed in leaves and roots N-butanol fractions .Also, the identification by HPLC analysis showed that the roots contains some tannin compounds than leaves such as vescalagin, Roburin D and 1,3,4-tri- O -galloylquinic acid.Our study confirmed the use of A.longa to prevent and control the oxidative stress.

To enhance crop yields, nitrogen is one of essential basic nutritional elements that enable any plant to withstand in stressful conditions. An experiment was carried out to investigate the impact of N rates and its application timings on growth, development and sugarcane yield at farm area of Sugarcane Research Institute, Faisalabad, Pakistan for two consecutive crop seasons (spring 2014 and 2015). Four Nitrogen (N) rates viz.170, 227, 284 and 341 kg ha-1were applied at four different application schedules i.e. T1= 45-75-90 days after planting (DAP); T2= 45-75-90-120 DAP;T3= 45-75-90-120-150 DAP and T4= 45-75-90-120-150-180 DAP, in RCBD having three replications. The results revealed that the treatments significantly affected quantitative traits like tillers plant-1, cane girth, millable count, cane and sugar yield and growth parameters like leaf area index (LAI), leaf area duration (LAD), seasonal total dry matter accumulation (TDM) and seasonal crop growth rate (CGR). Interactive effect of treatments was also significant for cane girth, number of millable canes and LAD. Treatments did not affect cane length significantly during the course of study. Growth traits viz. LAI, LAD and CGR showed improvement by higher N application and the highest values were observed when N was applied late in the season in six splits. A close positive linear relationship was noticed between cane yield and dose & time of N application. It may be concluded from the present study that splitting of nitrogen till 180 days after planting at higher rates (upto 341 kg ha-1) can improve cane and sugar yield of spring planted sugarcane crop under semi-arid climatic conditions

We analyze the velocity anisotropy of stars in real and energy space for a sample of Milky Way–like galaxies in the TNG50 simulation. We employ different selection criteria, including spatial, kinematic, and metallicity cuts, and make three halo classes (



–



) that show mild-to-strong sensitivity to different selections. The above classes cover 48%, 16%, and 36% of the halos, respectively. We analyze the β radial profiles and divide them into either monotonically increasing radial profiles or ones with peaks and troughs. We demonstrate that halos with monotonically increasing β profiles are mostly from class



, while those with peaks/troughs are part of classes



and



. This means that care must be taken, as the observationally reported peaks/troughs might be a consequence of different selection criteria. We infer the anisotropy parameter β energy space and compare that against the β radial profile. It is seen than 65% of halos with very mild sensitivity to different selections in real space are those for which the β radial and energy profiles are closely related. Consequently, we propose that comparing the β radial and energy profiles might be a novel way to examine the sensitivity to different selection criteria and thus examining the robustness of the anisotropy parameter in tracing stellar kinematics. We compare simulated β radial profiles against various observations and demonstrate that, in most cases, the model diversity is comparable with the error bars from different observations, meaning that the TNG50 models are in good overall agreement with observations.

We use globular cluster data from the Resolved Stellar Populations Early Release Science (ERS) program to validate the flux calibration for the Near Infrared Camera (NIRCam) on the James Webb Space Telescope. We find a significant flux offset between the eight short wavelength detectors, ranging from 1% to 23% (∼0.01–0.2 mag) that affects all NIRCam imaging observations. We deliver improved zero-points for the ERS filters and show that alternate zero-points derived by the community also improve the calibration significantly. We also find that the detector offsets appear to be time variable by up to at least 0.1 mag.

Changes in mass distribution affect the gravitational figure and reorient a planetary body’s surface with respect to its rotational axis. The mass anomalies in the present-day lunar gravity field can reveal how the figure and pole position have evolved over the Moon’s history. By examining sequentially each individual crater and basin, working backward in time order through the catalog of nearly 5200 craters and basins between 1200 and 20 km in diameter, we investigate their contribution to the lunar gravitational figure and reconstruct the evolution of the pole position by extracting their gravitational signatures from the present-day Moon. We find that craters and basins in this diameter range, which excludes South Pole–Aitken, have contributed to nearly 25% of the present-day power from the Moon’s degree-2 gravitational figure and resulted in a total displacement of the Moon’s pole by ∼10° along the Earth–Moon tidal axis over the past ∼4.25 billion years. This also implies that the geographical location of the Moon’s rotational pole has not moved since ∼3.8 Ga by more than ∼2° in latitude owing to impacts, and this has implications for the long-term stability of volatiles in the polar regions.
Survey of the Opinions of the Graduated and Practicing Dentists in Bulgaria and Germany on the Topics of Patient Safety and Medical Error

BACKGROUND: Patient safety and medical errors are issues that require research and strategies to deal with. The reasons for the occurrence of an adverse event should be sought among the quality of the received training, fatigue, ineffective communication, the culture of accusation, and the lack of an anonymous report register for training purposes.

AIM: The aim of the study is to survey and compare the opinion of the dentists in Bulgaria and Germany on topics related to patient safety and medical error.

MATERIALS AND METHODS: A survey with an anonymized questionnaire among dentists from randomly selected for the study purposes Regional Associations of settlements in the Republic of Bulgaria and Germany was used. Respondents answered 25 closed-ended questions divided into five panels: Demographic characteristics of the contingent, the role of study and postgraduate qualifications in acquiring knowledge of errors, willingness to share information about mistakes, factors of error, and culture of accusation. The obtained data were entered and processed with the statistical package IBM SPSS Statistics 20.0. The significance level of the null hypothesis is rejected at p < 0.05.

RESULTS: The largest relative share of respondents −72.37% ± 2.64%, is women, in the age range 25–35 years −48.60% ± 2.95%, and with work experience of 6–15 years −34.27% ± 2.81%. Statistically significant differences between the contingents were observed in terms of knowledge acquired during the study of the issue of patient safety (p = 0.005), and whether the study provided sufficient preparation to avoid medical error (p = 0.021). Differences were also found in the data from the issues related to the communication with the patient and the recognition of one’s own mistake (p = 0.034) or the mistake of their colleague (p = 0.004), as well as in terms of fatigue such as risk factor for an adverse event (p = 0.000). The exit data showed differences in the opinion of the two samples and on issues related to medical malpractice reporting and the role of professional organizations.

CONCLUSIONS: The majority of respondents believe that they were prepared during their training to identify the causes that could lead to medical errors and that the lack of regular breaks during work increases the risk of making a medical error. They would rather share with the patient an incident caused by themselves, but not one, caused by their colleagues. Respondents are of the opinion that the mistakes are not a sign of incompetence and the responsibility for the mistake lies with the dentist. Most respondents believe that an anonymous register of errors would be useful for their practice.

BACKGROUND: Central neurocytoma (CN) is one of the rarest brain tumors which can cause considerable threats to the patient. Studies and trials regarding its treatment are scarce, and no official guidelines are dedicated to this disease. The main principle of treatment generally consists of surgery and radiotherapy. The choice of radiotherapy is divided into conventional fractionated radiotherapy and stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). However, access to SRS in developing countries such as Indonesia is still limited.

AIM: We report a case delineating the timeline and process of treatment in CN with a review of the literature.

METHODS: We report the case of a 29-year-old woman with a solid inhomogeneous mass (AP 5.63 × CC 5.36 × LL 5.16 cm) in the right ventricle, attached to the septum pellucidum, as displayed on the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The patient had been vomiting for the past three weeks and presented with bidirectional horizontal nystagmus.

RESULTS: Cognitive evaluation with Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA-Ina) demonstrated a mild cognitive impairment. Biopsy was performed, and pathology analysis revealed some cells with fibrillary background and some with a honeycomb-like appearance. The immunohistochemistry staining showed positive results with synaptophysin and neuronal nuclear protein. According to the WHO classification of the central nervous system tumors, the profile favored CN Grade II. Subtotal resection (STR) was performed to reduce the tumor mass, which was measured with MRI 2-month post-surgery (AP 4.09 × CC 3.01 × LL 4.13 cm) and then followed by an external radiation program. Using intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), a total dose of 54 Gy was given in 27 fractions, with the average planning target volume of 54.3 Gy. There was a minuscule reduction in tumor mass as seen in post-radiotherapy MRI (AP 4.00 × CC 3.86 × LL 3.63 cm). After the last session and at the 18-month follow-up, the patient did not have any complaints or abnormalities during clinical assessment. Reevaluation using MoCA-Ina showed an improved cognitive function.

CONCLUSIONS: In line with recent evidence, we demonstrated that STR followed by IMRT with the dosage of 54 Gy in 27 fractions was a feasible treatment strategy for CN that resulted in cognitive improvement, with no side effects.

BACKGROUND: An accurate diagnosis is essential for the effective treatment of prostate cancer (PCa) and for the patients’ well-being.

AIM: Thе main purpose of this study was to assess the utility of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mp-MRI) for initial detection of PCa among the Bulgarian population of men with prostate diseases.

MATERIALS AND METHODS: Fifty-three patients, aged 44 to 82 years, were evaluated for clinically significant PCa. Assessment methods included prostate-specific antigen (PSA) serum levels, transrectal ultrasonography (TRUS), GE Discovery 3T MRI, and 12-core TRUS biopsy.

RESULTS: mp-MRI showed 83.20% concordance with TRUS biopsy: sensitivity of 91.43% (76.90–98.20), specificity of 75.00% (34.90–96.80), positive predictive values 94.10% (82.80–98.20) and negative predictive values 66.70% (38.70–86.40). Of the patients classified in prostate imaging–reporting and data system (PI-RADS) levels 4 and 5, 94.12% had positive TRUS biopsy, as well as 44.40% of PI-RADS had level 3. Irrespective of the patients’ age and PSA, PI-RADS was found to be a significant predictor of a positive TRUS biopsy (p = 0.009). PSA serum levels showed a low concordance with TRUS biopsy (area under the curve = 0.539; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.363–0.712) and a low, although significant, correlation with PI-RADS (rs = 0.416; 95% CI: 0.164–0.617).

CONCLUSION: According to our findings, mp-MRI and TRUS biopsy have a high level of concordance for the initial detection of PCa. The incorporation of mp-MRI into the diagnostic pathway for PCa can significantly reduce the number of incorrect diagnoses based on PSA serum levels and/or suspicious physical and digital examinations.
