Published: July 2021

Background: The residual SYNTAX score (RSS) can be used to measure the residual stenosis severity and complexity. The prognostic role of RSS in CCS patients is still unknown. We purposed to investigate the impact of RSS on the clinical outcomes following PCI in CCS patients. Methods: A prospective cohort study was performed. Based on the residual SYNTAX score, patients were divided into three groups: RSS 0, RSS 0 to 9.5, and RSS >9.5. The primary outcome was patient-oriented composite endpoint (POCE), including repeat revascularization, myocardial infarction, and all-cause mortality. Results: After 1-year follow-up period, patients in RSS >9.5 group revealed the greater POCE (4.3% vs. 6.4% vs. 23.9%; p = 0.016) than others. The repeat revascularization rate also was greater in the RSS >9.5 group (0.0% vs. 6.4% vs. 19.6%; p = 0.012). However, the hospitalization due to angina rates in all groups was not significantly different (4.3% vs. 4.2% vs. 4.3%; p = 1.000). The multivariate analysis revealed that RSS >9.5 was the strong predictor for repeat revascularization during 1 year follow-up (Odds ratio [OR] = 9.605; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.207 - 76.458; p = 0.033). Conclusion: The greater RSS was associated with the higher 1-year POCE and repeat revascularization rate in CCS patients. The high RSS was also the strong predictor for 1-year repeat revascularization for CCS patients.

Authors: Pancasari Ratna , Tri Tjahjono Cholid , Fuji Rahimah Anna , Prasetya Indra
Published: July 2021

Background: In young males, an acute myocardial infarction is an uncommon event. Thrombolism caused by nephrotic syndrome (NS) is one of the pathophysiologies of their infarctions. Case Illustration: A-24-y.o male patient, presenting with prolong typical chest pain since 72 hours before admission. The chest leads on an electrocardiogram (ECG) indicated ST-Elevation. Cardiac troponin was significantly raised. Since the previous two weeks, he has been experiencing nephrotic syndrome symptoms including anasarca edema.It was supported by laboratory data which is obtained proteinuria, hyperlipidemia and hypoalbuminemia. A complete acute occlusion of the proximal portion of the left anterior descending artery was revealed by coronary angiography. Increased fibrinogen levels appeared to be a contributing factor for hypercoagulable state in this patient, implying a correlation between coronary thrombosis and nephrotic syndrome. Discussion: Myocardial infarction (MI) is rare in young males, but it occurs 8 times more often in patients with NS than in the general population. Clinicians should pay closer attention to the history of previous diseases with a high risk of thromboembolism in young patients with MI, and they should specifically promote thromboembolism prevention and care in patients with renal disease to decrease the incidence of thromboembolism complications. Conclusion: Nephrotic syndrome should be considered as a contributing factor in any patient presenting with acute STEMI, particularly in young males.
Corporate Social Responsibility and Consumer Brand Advocacy: A Reflection in a Time of Crisis
Authors: Ferreira Ivone , Eusébio Luís , Fernández Rincón Antonio Raúl , Hellín Ortuño Pedro Antonio
Published: July 2021

Web 2.0 offers users the unprecedented possibility of taking part in an uninterrupted flow of global communication that encompasses a growing number of people within its network and connection points (Ferreira, 2002). Users/consumers find here a space governed by a logic of connectivity, openness, conversation, and participation. These dimensions are exponentially enhanced by the growing ubiquity of social networks, whose interactive and collaborative architecture has shifted power to user communities (Mollen & Wilson, 2010). This renewed communicational context creates several challenges for organizations, converted into brands whose value depends on the rankings that measure their reputation with the public, who have become avid consumers and producers of information (Kotler et al., 2017). Thus, the process of stakeholder empowerment and the consequent loss of control by companies over the dissemination and circulation of information that concerns them have reinforced the vital need for companies to build and maintain close relationships with their audiences, in which concern for the opinions, needs, and concerns of the latter is clear (Antunes & Rita, 2008). Therefore, communities are increasingly demanding of the perceived contribution of business to the sustained and sustainable development of society, “in the face of the worsening of a wide range of economic, social and environmental problems on a global scale, and the governments’ inability to address them” (Serpa & Fourneau, 2007, p. 97). That said, it is imperative for organizations to adopt an ethical and transparent conduct, which will enable them to gain customer confidence and support over the longer term (Pérez & Bosque, 2015). Corporate social responsibility (CSR) policies can be seen, then, as important drivers of the desired consumer loyalty to brand and further online advocacy.
Developing Effective Health Communication Campaigns
Authors: Tench Ralph , Bridge Gemma
Published: July 2021

Health communication campaigns have been used to address many of the most prevalent non-communicable disease risk factors, such as physical inactivity. Typically, campaigns are shared via mass media to reach a high proportion of the population and at a low cost per head. However, the messages shared are in direct competition with other campaigns, such as product marketing, which can result in the campaign not being seen adequately to lead to behaviour change. Moreover, as health campaigns are shared widely, the messages may not be understood or considered appropriate by certain audiences due to their broad nature. This can lead to unintended consequences, such as inadvertent social norming of the risk behaviour. To improve the success of health communication campaigns, they should be based on theory, with the theory of planned behaviour, the elaboration likelihood model, and the extended parallel process model, three of the most widely used. Such theories highlight the importance of targetting a campaign to the audience. Targetting a health communication campaign involves considering the audience in the development and dissemination of the message. Campaigns could also be co-developed with the audience in question to ensure relevance. Digital technologies such as machine learning and artificial intelligence can be used to tailor messages to the target audience effectively. Examples of targetted and broad health communication campaigns are presented.
Strategic Science Communication: The “Flatten the Curve” Metaphor in COVID-19 Public Risk Messaging
Authors: Ruão Teresa , Silva Sónia
Published: July 2021

This chapter discusses the emergence of the “flatten the curve” metaphor in the context of COVID-19 science communication strategies and its role in public messaging efforts that sought to inform world populations and mitigate the effects of the pandemic. Faced with the unexpected arrival and spread of the new coronavirus, governments worldwide have responded with mitigation policies to contain the dissemination of the disease. Prevention behaviours, such as washing hands frequently and maintaining social distancing, were thoroughly communicated to the public. However, despite the quality of the communication campaigns implemented, it is always hard to change people’s perceptions, attitudes, and behaviours, even more so in the short term, as is required in a global health crisis. In pandemics, the literature on risk and crisis communication suggests that messages sent by authorities should enable the understanding of complex information, avoid misinformation, and promote the adoption of adequate behaviours. This assertion presumes that, ideally, communication campaigns follow a set of strategic decisions on target audiences, communication objectives, key messages, adequate channels and message format. Although the emergence of the “flatten of the curve” metaphor did not follow a classical strategic approach, it seems to have incorporated a set of valuable communicational principles that explain why it has become the defining message of about COVID-19. This well-known chart grew into a science strategic communication device, conveying complex scientific information in an engaging but also clear way to the general public. It is, therefore, a good example to advogate for a strategic science communication approach.
Transitions in Technology-Mediated Cardiac Rehabilitation and Self-management: Qualitative Study Using the Theoretical Domains Framework
Authors: Tadas Shreya , Pretorius Claudette , Foster Emma J , Gorely Trish , Leslie Stephen J , Coyle David
Published: July 2021

Background

An acute cardiac incident is a life-changing event that often necessitates surgery. Although surgery has high success rates, rehabilitation, behavioral changes, and self-care are critical to long-term health. Recent systematic reviews have highlighted the potential of technology in this area; however, significant shortcomings have also been identified, particularly with regard to patient experience.

Objective

This study aims to improve future systems and to explore the experiences of cardiac patients during key phases after hospitalization: recuperation, initial rehabilitation, and long-term self-management. The key objective is to provide a holistic understanding of behavioral factors that impact people across these phases, understand how experiences evolve over time, and provide user-centered recommendations to improve the design of cardiac rehabilitation and self-management technologies.

Methods

Semistructured interviews were conducted with people who attended rehabilitation programs following hospitalization for acute cardiac events. Interviews were developed and data were analyzed via the Theoretical Domains Framework, a pragmatic framework that synthesizes prior theories of behavioral change.

Results

Three phases that arise posthospitalization were examined, namely, recuperation, rehabilitation, and long-term self-management. Through these phases, we describe the impact of key factors and important changes that occur in patients’ experiences over time, including the desire for and redefinition of normal life, the need for different types of formal and informal knowledge, the benefits of safe zoning and connectedness, and the need to recognize capability. The use of the Theoretical Domains Framework allows us to show how factors that influence behavior evolve over time and to identify potential sources of tension.

Conclusions

This study provides empirically grounded recommendations for the design of technology-mediated cardiac rehabilitation and self-management systems. Key recommendations include the use of technology to support a normal life, leveraging social influences to extend participants’ sense of normality, the use of technology to provide a safe zone, the need to support both emotional and physical well-being, and a focus on recognizing capability and providing recommendations that are positive and reinforce this capability.

Effectiveness, acceptability and potential harms of peer support for self-harm in non-clinical settings: A systematic review (Preprint)
Authors: Abou Seif Nada , John-Baptiste Bastien¹, Rayanne , Wang Belinda , Davies Jessica , Isaken Mette , Ball Ellie , Pitman Alexandra , Rowe Sarah L
Published: July 2021

BACKGROUND

Many people who have self-harmed prefer informal sources of support, or support from those with lived experience. However, little is known about whether peer support improves outcomes for people who have self-harmed, and what might be the risks of peer support interventions in non-clinical settings.

OBJECTIVE

The aims of this review are to examine the effectiveness, acceptability and potential risks of peer support for self-harm, and how these risks might be mitigated.

METHODS

We searched two bibliographic databases and grey literature for papers published since 2000. We included peer support for self-harm that occurred in voluntary sector organisations, providing one-to-one or group support, or via moderated online peer support forums. We excluded peer support within clinical settings, peer support provided by relatives or friends who self-harm, or peer support from unmoderated online forums. Quality appraisal was conducted on included papers, and study findings were summarised using a narrative synthesis.

RESULTS

Ten papers met the inclusion criteria for this review, and most (n=8) were conducted in the United Kingdom. Eight of the papers focused on peer support that was delivered through online mediums and two examined face-to-face self-harm recovery/support groups. Limited conclusions about the effectiveness of peer support interventions for self-harm can be made, as we found no studies comparing this to other treatments or a control group. Peer support for self-harm was found to be acceptable and was viewed as having a range of benefits including a reduction of loneliness, a sense of community and empowerment, improvements in interpersonal skills, and access to information and support. The most commonly perceived risk associated with peer support for self-harm was the potential for triggering self-harm. Other potential risks identified were being re-traumatised by listening to other people’s stories, not having the knowledge or skills to help others, and misunderstandings or disagreements with other peers/group members.

CONCLUSIONS

Our findings highlighted a range of benefits of being part of a group with very specific shared experiences. This justifies investment in the provision of such resources, supported by safeguards to mitigate the potential risks from peer support interventions. Suggestions include organisations using professional facilitators for groups, including trigger warnings for online forums, and providing regular supervision and training so that peers are prepared and feel confident to support vulnerable people whilst maintaining their own emotional health.

EFFICACY OF SEVELAMER CARBONATE IN COMBINATION WITH EDIBLE SOURCES IN HYPERPHOSPHATEMIA CONDITION ASSOCIATED WITH CHRONIC KIDNEY DISORDER
Authors: P. SHLINI , ROY DIKSHA , SINGH RICHA
Published: July 2021

Objective: The main objective of the study was to discover a suitable dietary source of plant origin which can be recommended alongside the medication in case of hyperphosphatemia.

Methods: The 2 plant samples chow chow (Sechiumedule) and bitter gourd (Momordica carantia) and two seed samples-Flax seeds (Linumusitatissimum) and Chia seeds (Salvia hispanica) were selected for the study. The samples were extracted using methanol. The filtrate obtained was used for dialysis studies under different conditions. Inorganic phosphate was estimated in each of the conditions.

Results: The study indicated perturbation in the absorption of phosphate with the selected plant samples as talked about in the following study. The extreme concentration of phosphate among the four diverse picked plant sources was seen in bitter gourd, which was found to be 0.4686 µmoles/ml. A minimal measure of 0.0693 µmoles/ml of phosphate was found in chia seeds. Chow chow ended up being the best one in hyperphosphatemia condition as the amount of phosphate removed by it along with the drug, sevelamer carbonate, was calculated to be the maximum (0.0561 µmoles). It was followed by chia seeds (0.0429 µmoles) and flax seeds (0.0420 µmoles).

Conclusion: The present study concentrates on the impact of various samples of plant extraction that can act on the phosphate absorption in the intestine by the procedure of dialysis.

Published: July 2021

Objective: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive, fatal brain disorder that would be putting a growing strain on health and social care systems. Present anti-AD agents are limited in their application due to their adverse effects, toxicity, and limited targets in AD pathology. As a result, it is important to develop an AD-fighting compound. Some flavonoids (such as kaempferol, myricetin, quercetin, and syringetin) have been shown to be effective in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.

Methods: We chose 284 flavonoids from the NPACT database for molecular docking studies in order to examine their binding interactions with the Alzheimer target protein CD33.

Results: These compounds exhibited significant docking interactions with a variety of targets implicated in the pathogenesis of AD. We chose the top three compounds (Rutin, Morin, and,4,4'-Trihydroxydihydrochalcone) based on the scoring parameter.

Conclusion: These compounds exhibited favorable pharmacokinetic properties, indicating that they could be attractive drug candidates for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.
PROTECTIVE INFLUENCE OF FISETIN ON COGNITIVE AND BIOCHEMICAL INDICES IN N-NITROSODIETYHLAMINE TREATED DROSOPHILA MELANOGASTER
Authors: SOFIA JENEFER , SUBRAMANIAN PERUMAL
Published: July 2021

Objective: The current investigation is intended to investigate the protecting influence of fisetin on cognitive, as well as biochemical indices in N-Nitrosodiethylamine (NDEA, a potent carcinogen), treated Drosophila melanogaster.

Methods: D. melanogaster is used as a model organism for this investigation. Experimental flies are divided into four groups. Group 1–control, group 2-flies were treated with 0.01% NDEA in food medium, group 3–flies treated with 0.01% NDEA and 0.01% fisetin and group 4-flies were treated with 0.01% fisetin alone. Behavioural abnormalities (negative geotaxis, phototaxis, smell and taste chemotaxis, hygrotaxis and thermotaxis) were quantitatively observed to be deviated in NDEA treated flies compared to control but were tend to be normalized in fisetin treated flies.

Results: The contents of protein carbonyl, thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS), protein thiol and lipid peroxides were noticeably augmented in NDEA treated flies than control flies and correspondingly tend to normalize in fisetin treated groups. Further, superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione-S-transferase (GST), glutathione peroxidise (GPX) and reduced glutathione (GSH) were decreased in NDEA treated group and were significantly increased (p<0.05) in fisetin treated groups.

Conclusion: Fisetin, a bioactive phytochemical could act as a potent antioxidant and as well exhibit antiproliferative characteristics. Our investigation indicates that this could prevent the abnormalities in behaviour and redox homeostasis during carcinogenesis in D. melanogaster.

Authors: Leibovich de Figueroa Nora , Marconi Aracelli , Minichello Claudia
Published: July 2021

El objetivo del presente trabajo es la descripción de la concepción que tienen los niños en torno a conceptos estructurantes de la realidad social como lo es el concepto de familia en contextos de vulnerabilidad psicosocial. Deseamos mostrar nuevos modos de acercamiento y evaluación en Psicología asi como aportar categorías de análisis a través de un enfoque Ecoevaluativo. Nos interesa ofrecer una descripción de la concepción de familia que tienen los niños entre 9 y 11 años que habitan contextos de pobreza, caracterizados por la vulnerabilidad psicosocial y que asisten a comedores comunitarios. Consideramos que la familia es uno de los contextos más relevantes en el desarrollo humano y que la experiencia personal en torno a la vida familiar afecta la interpretación que los integrantes de la misma tienen sobre este concepto. Esto abre entonces un abanico de nuevas perspectivas para la investigación de la concepción de familia desde la palabra de los mismos actores sociales involucrados, en este caso los niños. A partir de un minucioso análisis cualitativo de los gráficos de familia realizados por los pequeños, se presentará una descripción de las categorías obtenidas considerando los datos más significativos y comunes a todos los dibujos.

Mediante un diseño descriptivo se estudiaron estilos de amor y vínculos de apego romántico en una muestra intencional de alumnos de psicología. El objetivo fue conocer los estilos predominantes mediante las escalas de Actitudes sobre el Amor y Tipos de Apego en contextos románticos. También se recolectó información sobre los vínculos románticos de los participantes. Los resultados muestran una preferencia por el estilo eros de amor, en coincidencia con estudios previos. Sin embargo, el tipo de apego romántico más frecuentefue el temeroso, en clara disidencia a trabajos previos publicados sobre el tema. Entre los resultados obtenidos destaca que el 50% de la muestra expresó su duda hacia la posibilidad de casarse con una persona que reúna los requisitos añorados pero de la cual no se estuviese enamorado, cuando la negativa hubiese sido la respuesta esperable acorde al estilo de amor predominante.
EFECTOS TERAPÉUTICOS POSITIVOS A TRAVÉS DEL AUMENTO DEL OPTIMISMO
Authors: López Pell Andrés Fernando , Kasanzev Alexis , López María Beatriz
Published: July 2021

El optimismo parece ser un constructo significativo en cuanto permitiría predecir variables de notable importancia clínica. La psicología positiva plantea que el incremento del optimismo influye de manera significativa en la disminución de la sintomatología psicopatológica. De ser esto así, se podrían optimizar los efectos de la psicoterapia mediante un plan para incrementar el optimismo. Con el objetivo de probar esta hipótesis, se diseñó un estudio experimental con pacientes que recibían psicoterapia cognitiva clásica. Para evaluar cambios en los síntomas psicopatológicos se utilizó la escala SCL-90-R. Los resultados mostraron una disminución significativa en variables como somatizaciones, ansiedad fóbica y hostilidad a favor del grupoexperimental en comparación con el grupo control. Por lo tanto, este plan para aumentar el optimismo parece producir una optimización de la psicoterapia cognitiva al disminuir la intensidad de los síntomas en los pacientes.

Published: July 2021

En el siguiente estudio se busca una aproximación exploratoria a la población de los niños y niñas en situación de calle de Montevideo. Se trabajo con 27 niños de ambos sexos de entre 7 y 13 años. Se consideraron las variables sociodemográficas y se evaluó el desarrollo neuropsicológico, incluyendo la utilización del lenguaje oral, la relación con el código escrito, las habilidades de razonamiento lógico-matemático, el funcionamiento cognitivo general y la exploración de algunos indicadores psicopatológicos. Los resultados muestran que se trata de una población con un alto nivel de carencias y vulnerabilidades, y una importante presencia de trastornos comportamentales. En el aspecto cognitivo, se encuentra algún nivel de efectividad en la ejecución intelectual de operaciones no verbales. En las  tareas verbales, se comprobaría un déficit significativo por el escaso desarrollo general del lenguaje. Esto tendría consecuencias negativas en la inserción escolar así como en la capacidad de auto-regulación del comportamiento.
SOBRE LA FUNDACIÓN DEL ESPACIO ANALÍTICO: ACTUALIDAD DEL LEGADO DE SIGMUND FREUD
Authors: Veríssimo de Posadas Laura
Published: July 2021

El trabajo se propone refl exionar sobre las condiciones que hacen posible un proceso psicoanalítico, desde la mirada que nos legara Sigmund Freud. Se discurre acerca de la creación de un espacio, delimitado por un encuadre, al que se compara con la escena onírica, con sus reglas propias y, a la vez, como ella, permeado por la realidad externa. Es allí que la función analítica puede ejercerse apoyada, también, en la atención fl otante y la regla de abstinencia que siguen considerándose pilares fundamentales del método. Desde estas afirmaciones se toma posición en los debates actuales respecto a la práctica analítica. Una breve viñeta ilustra algunas de las ideas planteadas.

Published: July 2021

O ameloblastoma é o segundo tumor odontogênico benigno mais comum descrito na literatura, com perfil de crescimento lento, infiltrativo e agressivo. Apresenta predileção pela região posterior da mandíbula, sendo por vezes assintomático, podendo atingir grandes proporções. Sua origem advém do epitélio odontogênico e o diagnóstico deve ser realizado por meio de exames de imagem e uma biópsia incisional para exame histopatológico. O tratamento é cirúrgico, podendo-se utilizar técnicas conservadoras ou radicais. Para as ressecções totais ou parciais, deve ser planejada a reabilitação do paciente, devolvendo assim a função e a estética. O osso autógeno, é considerado o “padrão ouro” quando se opta por enxertia nesse tipo de lesão. O objetivo deste trabalho é descrever dois casos cujo tratamento consistiu em mandibulectomia parcial e enxertia de osso autógeno de crista ilíaca não vascularizado, comparando as evoluções por um período de um ano após as intervenções, realizadas no Hospital Municipal Salgado Filho (HMSF) Rio de Janeiro/RJ. Pôde-se observar que embora o tratamento de eleição tenha sido o mesmo para ambos os casos, os resultados finais foram distintos entre os pacientes.
PERFIL EPIDEMIOLÓGICO DAS FRATURAS DE FACE: UMA REVISÃO DE LITERATURA
Authors: DE SOUZA VIANA RODRIGO , Barros Jackeline Nogueira de Paula
Published: July 2021

As fraturas de face são um problema de saúde pública que afeta a qualidade de vida dos indivíduos que sofreram esse agravo. Sabendo-se da importância dos estudos epidemiológicos para o enfrentamento desse problema, este trabalho teve como objetivo traçar o perfil epidemiológico das fraturas de face, contribuindo assim, para a elaboração de políticas públicas mais eficazes e tratamento adequado. Para isso foi ralizada uma revisão de literatura nas principais bases de dados, Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde (LILACS), Medical Literature Analysis and Retrievel System Online (MEDLINE) e Bibliografia Brasileira de Odontologia (BBO) através da Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS) e diretamente pela interface da Literature Analysis (PubMed/MEDLINE), nos últimos 20 anos, contemplando populações, culturas e faixas etárias heterogêneas. Observou-se que o sexo masculino foi o mais acometido e sua incidência foi maior entre os jovens, as principais etiologias foram às agressões físicas e os acidentes de transito sobretudo com o envolvimento de motocicletas associado ao uso de álcool e drogas. Os ossos nasais e a mandíbula foram as estruturas que sofreram mais fraturas e o tratamento mais utilizado foi a redução fechada. Neste contexto, faz-se necessário medidas ao combate às desigualdades sociais e desemprego, incentivo à educação e intensificação das leis de trânsito.

A colocação de implantes osseointegráveis requer volume ósseo adequado, porém, a extração de dentes leva a diferentes padrões de remodelaç ão e reabsorção óssea. A reabsorção do rebordo alveolar tem sido considerada uma consequência inevitável da extração dentária e pode ser um problema significativo em Implantodontia. Após a extração dentária, mesmo com a instalação de implantes imediatos, o sítio desdentado do processo alveolar sofre substancial  modelagem óssea, com a diminuiç ão das dimensões da crista alveolar. Após a inserção de um implante em um local de extração fresco, um defeito marginal (GAP) ocorre, frequentemente, entre o rebordo e a superfície do implante, A fim de superar esse problema  e  para facilitar a formaç ão de osso no defeito marginal, vários processos de enxerto têm sido utilizados, associados ou não ao uso de membranas de barreira, bem como diversos tipos de substitutos ósseos que podem ser utilizados para tal procedimento. Esse trabalho tem por objetivo revisar e discutir a literatura relacionada ao uso de biomateriais sintéticos para preenchimento desses defeitos que se formam ao redor  de  implantes instalados em alvéolos frescos. No entanto, ainda não existe um biomaterial ideal que possua todas as pro- priedades desejáveis. Além disso, o volume de osso residual deve ser avaliado antes da extração de dentes, de modo que os cirurgiões possam utilizar técnicas diferentes para preservar o osso alveolar.

BIOMARCADORES SALIVARES DO CARCINOMA DE CÉLULAS ESCAMOSAS
Authors: Miranda Helba Pires , Miranda Bruno Pires , Rocha Monica Lage da , Correa William Napolitano , Kalil Marcos da Veiga
Published: July 2021

O carcinoma de células escamosas (OSCC) é uma neoplasia maligna que atinge a cavidade oral, lábios e orofaringe com uma das maiores taxa de mortalidade em todo o mundo, quando em comparação com outros carcinomas, o que o torna um problema de saúde pública (MORO, 2018). Devido à sua grande prevalência, os pesquisadores buscam por mecanismos para aprimorar o diagnóstico da doença em sua fase inicial, no intuito de possibilitar melhor qualidade de vida e sobrevida a esses pacientes (CHENG et al., 2014).

Tem-se desenvolvido estudos através da expressão de proteínas, envolvendo o mecanismo biomolecular da carcinogênese oral na busca de identificação de biomarcadores que tenham potencial preditivo e um bom prognóstico para OSCC (CARVALHO; OLIVEIRA, 2015; LOUSADA-FERNANDEZ et at., 2018).

Em uma revisão sobre o genoma salivar do câncer oral, este destacou-se justamente pelo fato de suas proteínas estarem localmente expressas (SHAH et at., 2011), tornando seus biomarcadores salivares de fácil e rápida coleta, já que a proliferação desordenada de células malignas deixa derivados de DNA, RNA, vesiculas (exossomos) e marcadores proteicos nos fluidos creviculares, podendo demostrar de forma preventiva o câncer. Com isso, esses biomarcadores podem ser identificados na fase inicial da doença, ao contrário do exame clínico, já que as manifestações clínicas são tardias, o que gera um prognóstico ruim (LOUSADA-FERNANDEZ et al., 2018).

Diante desse quadro, o objetivo deste trabalho foi fazer uma revisão de literatura acerca do papel dos biomarcadores tumorais e discutir sobre a atual situação do câncer bucal, justificando o uso de biomarcadores salivares e entendendo seu papel no diagnóstico precoce.

Para isso foi feita uma busca detalhada nas bases de dados Pubmed-Medline, Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde, Lilacs e Scielo, para identificar os mais recentes biomarcadores citados nas literaturas ultilizando as palavras-chaves: carcinoma, biomarcadores, saliva. Também foram incluídos dados coletados da Organização Mundial da Saúde e do Instituto Nacional do Câncer.

Zurri waqf stands as an alternative for estate planning upon the death of one’s parents. Despite having current alternative such as will writing, faraid and hibah, zurri waqf is viable as instrument to distribute wealth to the loved ones. Data given by Jabatan Ketua Pengarah Tanah dan Galian (JKPTG) in 2019 shows a total of RM60 billion of unclaimed property had been recorded. Amongst of the causes are; absence of will writing and little knowledge of wealth management from the heirs. Thus, zurri waqf stand as one mechanism which can be practiced to assist the parentless child in surviving their lifes. Therefore, the objective of this study is to identify the zurri waqf instrument as an estate planning and to identify the zurri waqf management procedures in Malaysia. This study is a qualitative nature in the form of interview and content analysis. This paper benefits readers and researchers involved in gaining more knowledge about zurri waqf as a suitable instrument for the estate planning of Muslim property such as land cultivated as agriculture and involving the participation of beneficiaries in waqf assets development that can bring significant impact in the future. In addition, the zurri waqf management procedures need to be improved in order to encourage its implementation in the future.
Turks and Other Muslims in the US: An Analysis of Perceptions
Authors: Karataş İbrahim
Published: July 2021

Surveys show that, in the United States, Americans have a less favorable view of Muslims due to various reasons as opposed to American Muslims who conversely favor the American state and population. In line with this fact, this study tries to understand whether the Turkish community living in the US has different views about Americans than American Muslims do. This study makes a comparison because not all ethnic groups in the American Muslim community have the same views about Americans. While analyzing the Turkish community’s perceptions, this study also analyzes the views Americans and Muslim Americans have towards each other. The study compares previous surveys with the survey conducted among Turks living in the US and concludes that Muslims generally have the same perceptions regarding Americans. It also reveals that aside from the basic reasons which result in a negative view towards Muslims, being a small community and fragmented are two significant factors that damage the image of Muslims. In addition, it reveals that a lack of knowledge about each other increases negative perceptions.

El departamento del Cesar, tiene un gran potencial para la producción de hortalizas y entre ellas están el pimentón según (ASOHOFRUCOL, 2006), que apoyaría la diversificación y generación de ingresos a pequeñas familias productoras, pero hay muy poca investigación sobre hortalizas en la región Caribe, que hace necesario impulsar este tipo de estudios que generen conocimiento y transferencia de tecnología para estos cultivos. Por lo anterior la presente investigación está orientada a determinar las características agronómicas del cultivo de ají pimentón (Capsicum annuum), de 3 variedades Cortes, Zapata y 14pe9572 bajo las condiciones climáticas de bosque seco tropical del municipio de Valledupar – Cesar, El desarrollo de esta investigación se realizó bajo la implementación de un cultivo tecnificado con riego por goteo, buenas prácticas agrícolas que incluyen un plan de fertilización, manejo integrado de malezas y el manejo integrado de plagas y enfermedades. El estudio se realizó en unidades experimentales de 20 metros cuadrados con un diseño experimental de bloques completamente al azar con tres variedades y tres réplicas, que permitió el seguimiento y evaluación de las variables agronómicas (Número de frutos, peso en kilogramos, diámetro polar y ecuatorial) de las tres variedades de pimentón. Los resultados obtenidos de las tres variedades, a partir del análisis estadístico con base en cada una de las variables, no reportaron diferencias significativas entre ellas, pero si se observó una buena adaptabilidad de las tres variedades bajo las condiciones agroclimáticas de Valledupar.
Accounting for equity investments under IFRS 13: Are market multiple evaluations accurate?
Authors: Migliavacca Alessandro , Rainero Christian , Palea Vera
Published: July 2021

In capital markets, the investment decision-making process is vastly influenced by accounting information. This paper addresses equity investment valuation through market multiples and its consequences in investors’ financial statements under fair value accounting principles. After replicating the valuation process through the most used market multiples (price-to-forecasted earnings; market-to-book; enterprise-value-to-performance indicators), the authors analyze the distribution of the estimated-to-actual fair value ratio under the IFRS 13 perspective and the effects of a randomly selected portfolio on the balance sheet and income statement of the investor. The study’s primary findings are that the market multiples tend to produce consistent results in 7 (at least) to 20 (at best) out of 100 cases, and over or underestimate the fair value in all the remaining cases without any apparent or predictable reason. The results of the paper confirm what previous literature underlined by studies conducted on older data and with a different geographical scope (Kim & Ritter, 1999; Lie & Lie, 2002; Palea & Maino, 2013). The results and the literature suggest being particularly cautious in applying the market multiples valuation method for estimating the fair value of an equity investment, given the preference that accounting principles accord to the Level 2 market-comparable methods, which also seem to be the most used ones in practice

Published: July 2021

Experimental research demonstrates the performance of electronic devices on plate fin heat sinks in order to guarantee that operating temperatures are kept as low as possible for reliability. Paraffin wax (PCM) is a substance that is used to store energy and the aluminum plate fin cavity base is chosen as a thermal conductivity enhancer. The effects of PCM material (phase shift material), cavity form base (rectangular, triangular, concave, and convex) with PCM, Reynolds number (Re = 4000-20000) on heat transfer effectiveness of plate fin heat sinks were experimentally explored in this research. The thermal performance of con-cave base plate fin heat sink with PCM is increased up to 7.8% compared to other cavity base heat sinks.

Improving design and operating parameters of the recuperator for waste heat recovery from rotary kilns
Authors: Stojic Nenad , Karamarkovic Rade , Karamarkovic Miodrag , Nikolic Milos
Published: July 2021

Depending on their applications, heat losses from the shells of rotary kilns account for 3-25% of the total heat input. Over the hottest zone of the kiln shell, an annular duct with a variable diameter is formed. Two air streams entering the annulus at both ends flow to a common extraction point to receive the thermal power equal to the ambient heat loss of the bare kiln. The design does not require airtightness, utilizes the entire heat loss, and by the variation of the air-flow can be used over the kilns with variable operating parameters (?20% heat loss), which show similar surface temperature patterns. The main disadvantage of the design is the approaching of the surfaces of the kiln and the recuperator at the outlet of preheated air. This means that for a given heat loss and a surface temperature pattern, the rotational eccentricity of the kiln shell is the most influencing parameter that defines the air preheating temperature and the efficiency of the recuperator. To solve the problem, four redesigns with: double annuluses, the usage of radiation fins, air addition, and a combination of two basic designs are analyzed by the use of analytical and CFD models. From the listed redesigns: first could be used only to prevent overheating, second has a modest positive effect, third should be applied in combination with fourth.
Approach to Difficult Airway Management
Authors: Matrka Laura , Soldatova Liuba
Published: July 2021

According to the 2013 American Society of Anesthesiology Practice Guidelines for Management of the Difficult Airway, a term “difficult airway” refers to clinical situations in which a likelihood of 1) difficulty with patient cooperation or consent, 2) difficult mask ventilation, 3) difficult supraglottic airway placement, 4) difficult laryngoscopy, 5) difficult intubation, and/or 6) difficult surgical airway is high. Several considerations are important when approaching each individual clinical scenario. An airway management plan should include patient-specific and situation-specific factors that take into account findings of bedside airway evaluation, prior history of intubations, the acuity of the situation requiring intubation, and the level of airway obstruction. The following module provides an overview of these factors along with a brief introduction to specific clinical situations in which some airway management strategies are more suitable.1,2
