Financial Statements Effects of Adopting IFRS: Evidence from Listed Manufacturing Firms in Sri Lanka
Authors:   University of Kelaniya, Muthunayake Himal , Kawshalya Pubudu
Published: February 2022

Accounting Information would be beneficial only if it is relevant to the decisions being made. According to International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), the usefulness of accounting information depends on the fundamental qualitative characteristics of relevance and faithful representation. As a result of harmonization and standardization, International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) were adopted in Sri Lanka as a developing country from 1st January 2012. Given the differences that exist between developed and developing countries in the context of the accounting profession and other contextual differences, the impact of IFRS adoption in developing countries remains as an empirical gap in the accounting literature. Therefore, the main purpose of the current study is to examine the impact of IFRS adoption on the accounting information quality, in terms of value relevance and the effect on key financial measures of financial statements in Sri Lanka. Data for the current study are collected from audited annual financial statements and Colombo Stock Exchange (CSE) reports for all the listed manufacturing companies in Sri Lanka, for the period of 10 years from 2008/2009 to 2017/2018. Based on the regression estimates obtained, the study concludes that the value relevance of book values of equity is increased upon IFRS adoption. Further the findings reveal that there are favourable impacts of financial statement measures upon IFRS adoption in listed manufacturing firms in Sri Lanka. These results would be pertinent and significant to both Sri Lankan investors and to accounting standard setting bodies such as the IASB and CA Sri Lanka. Further, the study might also be of value to emerging nations with an investment environment similar to that of Sri Lanka and where IFRS reporting have recently been or will be adopted. Keywords: IFRS Adoption, Value Relevance, Financial Statements Effects, Listed Manufacturing Companies, Sri Lanka.
The Portrayal of Pompeian Bacchus
Authors: Kuivalainen Ilkka
Published: February 2022

This book is about the portrayal of Bacchus in Pompeii. The topic is much studied, and the ancient texts and works of art are mainly well known. The intention has been to collect the various factors together, not only some examples. This idea came from the need to understand better the wall paintings and sculptures in the House of Marcus Lucretius (IX 3. 5.24).
Developing Conceptual and Methodological Foundations in Community Engagement
Authors: Aday David , Weeks Joanna , Sherman Christiana , Marty Robert , Silverstein Rebecca
Published: February 2022

We describe the efforts of two related undergraduate projects to promote lasting social change in marginalized communities in the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua. The projects represent a test of the premise that undergraduate projects can engage academically based strategies and transcend good intentions to achieve effective community partnerships to improve health and health care. The projects proceed from a perspective and theory of marginalization and its consequences. Specifically, marginalization undermines individual and collective capacity to meet basic needs and efforts to thrive. Through strengthening social infrastructure, communities can overcome the effects of marginalization. Project work begins with annual medical clinics and, with the permission of community residents, team members conduct ethnographic descriptions of the communities and their health and health care concerns and resources. We use social network analysis (SNA) and geographic information system (GIS) techniques to describe social infrastructure. Working from those foundations, both projects have enabled increased social infrastructure. To date, we have observed increased communication among community residents, facilitated the development of community-endorsed five-year plans, and established partnerships with regional and international groups.
Youth Engagement—Engaging for a Change: Changing for Engagement
Authors: Iwasaki Yoshitaka
Published: February 2022

This paper documents the incentives for, processes of, and outcomes from our multi-year community-based research project on youth engagement. In line with the theme of the 15th Annual Conference of the Engagement Scholarship Consortium (ESC)—Engaging for Change: Changing for Engagement—this paper illustrates our project in terms of the conference’s three sub-themes: (1) Why engage?, (2) How do we engage?, and (3) What impacts are we having? Contextualized within these sub-themes, the paper describes opportunities and challenges of youth engagement from youth and professional perspectives by highlighting insights of our youth leaders and community partners, along with some reflective remarks by our university researchers. The paper provides tangible descriptions and illustrations for the significance of “strategic engagement” (Speer & Christens, 2013) by focusing on the use of “strategic youth and partner engagement.” Importantly, this strategic engagement centerpieces the voices and talents of our youth leaders, supported by our community agency partners, along with a background role of university researchers.

Authors: Mehta Khanjan , Gorski Irena , Liu Chang , Weinstein Suzanne , Brua Chas , Christensen Adam
Published: February 2022

How does a public university with over 80,000 students across 24 campuses provide every student with an engaged scholarship experience? This article chronicles the first steps of this ambitious journey to educate a new generation of engaged scholars by building engagement ecosystems: networks of students, faculty, courses, and communities working together on compelling socially relevant projects around a common theme. By incorporating projects from an impact-focused community engagement program into a cross-section of existing classes, universities can expand engagement opportunities from a select few to the vast majority of the students. This article reviews current approaches to scale engagement opportunities before describing the principles and mechanics of the Engagement Ecosystem model. A case study of the pilot implementation of this model is presented with preliminary assessment results (n=1,165), key lessons learned, and future expansion plans.
Extreme Make Over: Disposition Develop­ment of Pre-Service Teachers
Authors: Meidl Tynisha , Baumann Beth
Published: February 2022

Pre-service teachers are on an educational and professional journey in which they are trying to figure out the “right stuff” needed to be an effective teacher while being a “student.” Many pre-service teachers engage in community service projects, yet it is unclear how these experiences inform the dispositional development of pre-service teachers. In this study, the authors examined the outcomes of a community service experience pre-service teachers (n = 20) participated in as part of the [student group]. The authors present the results of a qualitative study. Findings suggest pre-service teachers realize the multiplicities of student needs in an authentic setting and the potential disconnect between what is learned during one’s teacher education undergraduate program and the realities of being a teacher once employed as a classroom teacher. The authors conclude with reflections on the importance of having concrete ways for pre-service teachers to develop dispositions beyond the course-based field experiences and student teaching.
Factors That Influence the Event of Low Birth Weight in The Room of Peristi in Tolitoli General Hospitals
Authors: Mushalpah Mushalpah
Published: February 2022

Background: Low birth weight is a public health problem because it is one of the causes of high infant mortality. Factors that can affect LBW include maternal weight, Hb and the age of the mother, which is very important to monitor the health status of children from birth. Objective To determine the factors that influence the incidence of low-birth-weight babies (LBW) in the Hospital Room at Tolitoli General Hospital.
Methods: The design used in the study is correlational analytic. Population is all mothers and babies. The sample size was 32 respondents using Purposive sampling techniques. Independent variables of the study were a history of pregnancies with low birth weight, maternal age, anemia. The dependent variable is LBW incidence. Data was collected using a questionnaire, then the data were analyzed using logistic regression tests with a significance level of α ≤ 0.05.
Results: The results showed that most of the respondents aged 17-25 years as many as 16 respondents (50%), weight during pregnancy 61-70 kg as many as 17 respondents (53.1%), mothers with Hb> 11 gr / dl during pregnancy as much 26 respondents (81.3%). The results of the study obtained Overall Statistics found that p = 0,000 which means that the independent variables influence together on the dependent variable. If you see the value of p per variable, body weight is p = 0.006, age p = 0.184, Hb p = 0.000, so it can be concluded that the variables that affect the incidence of LBW are maternal weight and Hb during pregnancy.
Conclusion: LBW in infants can be caused by maternal weight and Hb or anemic conditions in the mother during pregnancy, this will cause the baby to lack nutritional and energy needs during pregnancy.

Published: February 2022

The study aimed to determine the benefits of Project OSO: Online, Shareable, and Offline videolectures to seventh-grade students during the Flipped Classroom implementation to resolve theuntaught mathematics learning competencies before the school year ended. The study employed theexperimental research design with three groups. Using the cluster random sampling technique, thesethree groups were selected from the seventh-grade population as respondents and were randomlyassigned with the three proposed interventions named Project OSO. These three groups underwentthe same set of questionnaires as pre-test and post-test before and after the interventions. These 40-item multiple-choice research instruments were evaluated, reviewed and quality assured by anexpert panel of evaluators using the conducted pilot testing and the generated Cronbach alpha index.The study's findings revealed that learners' test scores differed significantly among the three groupsbased on one-way ANOVA. However, the Tukey post hoc test showed that the Flipped Online groupdiffered substantially from the Flipped Shareable and Offline groups. Consequently, Project OSOwas considered a valuable resource in the Flipped Classroom implementation and highlyrecommended for instructing learners when the teacher was out due to school-related functionsamong these three video lectures platforms. These platforms were the flipped online, flippedshareable, and flipped offline video lectures that the learners could probably learn at their own pace,anytime and anywhere
Pengaruh Pola Tanam Terhadap Pertumbuhan dan Hasil Kentang di Wilayah Dataran Tinggi Dieng, Jawa Tengah
Authors: Pertiwi Miranti Dian , Cempaka Intan Gilang
Published: February 2022

Peluang peningkatan produktivitas kentang di Jawa Tengah masih sangat terbuka, mengingat produktivitasnya belum maksimal. Salah satu penyebabnya diduga adalah frekuensi penanaman kentang yang terlalu sering, yaitu dua sampai tiga kali dalam satu tahun dengan pola kentang-kentang-kentang atau sayuran lain-kentang-kentang. Oleh karena itu dilakukan percobaan dengan tujuan mengidentifikasi perbedaan pertumbuhan dan hasil kentang yang ditanam di tiga wilayah dataran tinggi Dieng yang memiliki pola tanam yang berbeda dalam setahun. Percobaan disusun dengan rancangan petak terbagi, perbedaan pola tanam di tiga lokasi sebagai petak utama (Wonosobo 2 kali tanam kentang/tahun, Banjarnegara 3 kali tanam kentang/tahun, Pekalongan 1 kali tanam kentang/tahun) dan tiga varietas sebagai anak petak (Granola L, Granola K, Tedjo-MZ) yang disusun dalam tiga ulangan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pertumbuhan tiga varietas lebih optimal di lokasi Pekalongan dibanding di Wonosobo dan Banjarnegara. Demikian juga dengan komponen hasil yaitu bobot segar umbi per tanaman dan produktivitas umbi per hektar menunjukkan bahwa di lokasi Pekalongan nyata lebih tinggi dibanding di Wonosobo dan Banjarnegara. Hasil percobaan ini memberikan informasi awal bahwa perbedaan pola tanam atau intensitas tanaman kentang dalam setahun berpengaruh terhadap pertumbuhan dan hasil yang diperoleh. Pola tanam kentang satu kali setahun menunjukkan pertumbuhan dan hasil yang lebih baik dibanding pola tanam kentang dua dan tiga kali setahun.

Introduction. The frequency of osteomyelitis in pediatric population is approximately 1:5000, and the mortality rate is from 0.2% to 17.0%. In children, acute bone infection is most often of hematogenous origin. Transition from the classical radiography and radionuclide examination to computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been completed.Purpose. To demonstrate potentials of CT and MRI in the diagnostics of osteomyelitis in children.Material and methods. 238 children with osteomyelitis, aged 1-17 years (average 9.1 ± 4.9 years), were examined for the last ten years. There were 126 boys (53%) and 112 girls (47%). Depending on the disease nosology, patients were divided as follows: hematogenous osteomyelitis (n = 112 children, 47%), BCG-osteomyelitis (n = 20, 8.4%), post-traumatic osteomyelitis (n = 67, 28.2%). 138 children (58%) were treated surgically. CT scanning was performed in 174 patients using Brilliance 16 scanners. MRI was performed using Philips AchievadStream 3.0 T scanner to obtain multi-planar STIR, T1-, T2- and PD weighted images (SE and GE). In addition, new MRI methods were used: diffusion-weighted images (DWI), Dixon, dynamic MRI with contrast enhancement (DCE).Results. CT examination, which was performed in 174 patients at the same terms as radiography, confirmed density decrease ( though not large). Periosteal changes were better visualized at CT examination in 107 out of 174 patients (61.5%) including those who had changes at the classical radiography. MRI was performed in 51 patients ( including those with intravenous contrast enchancement) on Day 2-3 since the disease onset. This examination was effective in all cases (sensitivity 100%). T2WI and STIR with fat suppression (FS) clearly revealed edema of the bone marrow and surrounding muscles as well as small changes.Conclusion. MRI is the most informative diagnostic technique in acute osteomyelitis at its early period because main signs of the initial stage of this disease - edema of bone marrow, periosteum and soft tissues - are detected during the first days. In addition, MRI reveals details of bone and soft tissues damages, including abscess and sequester formation, especially in spinal and pelvic lesions. MRI sensitivity in osteomyelitis reaches up to 100%. Sequences with the fat suppression (FS) can better detect bone marrow edema and inflammation than radiography. MRI is a preferable technique in diagnostics of infectious lesions of the spine, pelvis, and limbs.

Published: February 2022

Introduction. Cloacal abnormalities are rare congenital malformations having the most severe and complex forms of anorectal and urogenital malformations. Patients - always females who are born with the persistent cloaca - at the stage of embryogenesis had a merging of lower urethra, vagina and rectum into a single canal or cavity which is opened posterior to the clitoris. The persistent cloaca remains a challenging reconstructive problem for pediatric gynecologists, urologists and surgeons. Doctors must have skills in surgical urology, proctology and in all types of plastic surgery on the vagina and cervix.Material and methods. Data searches were conducted in PubMed and Google Scholar. The following keywords were used: “Cloacal abnormalities” and “Persistent cloaca”.Conclusion. Regardless of a technique, goals for cloaca management remain the same. The primary surgical procedure is aimed to restore normal anatomical positioning of pelvic organs and to form the urethra, vagina and rectum as well as to achieve control over bowel function, urination and reproductive potential of the patient. A surgical correction of persistent cloaca should be performed in specialized medical institutions by specialists having experience in treating children with anorectal anomalies.

Introduction. The antireflux reimplantation of the ureter may be performed using different surgical approaches with the known techniques. Despite the high efficiency of these surgical interventions, there are cases of reflux relapses even after several surgical interventions on the ureterovesical junction (UVJ). The range of ways for laparoscopic reconstruction of the upper urinary tract is increasingly expanding what allows toperform a successful correction of the defect even in technically difficult positions. The main purpose of the present clinical demonstration is to illustrate a successful application of laparoscopic access in the correction of recurrent forms of vesicoureteral reflux (VUR).Material and methods. The authors present a clinical case and management of a patient with Grade 4 VUR on the right (classification by P.E. Heikel et K.V. Parkkulainen, 1966). Previously, a 12-year-old boy had four surgical interventions, both open traditional correction and endovesical implantations of volume-forming drugs. The reflux persisted and was accompanied with constant recurrences of pyelonephritis and progressive deterioration of the kidney function on the right.Results. Despite technical difficulties associated with cicatricial changes in UVJ, an antireflux surgery with laparoscopic access was performed. The follow-up control within one year revealed no recurrences of urinary tract infection. Findings of VUR control examination demonstrated that the renal function was stabilized.Conclusions. A rational approach and justified surgical access have given good outcomes in this patient.

Features of interest to anesthesiologists include approach to a child with chronic kidney disease, different requirements for intraoperative antihypertensives; pain management strategies, including a comparison of erector spinae plane block with and without adjunct dexmedetomidine; anesthetic management of retroperitoneoscopic pediatric surgery and the first description of using a Foley bag attached to a peritoneal dialysis catheter to aid in diagnosis and repair of posterior peritoneal cavity entry.
Socioeconomic Status, English Exposure and CLIL Motivation in High and Low Exposure CLIL Groups
Authors: Tompkins Forrest Leah
Published: February 2022

Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) programs are often praised for bringing equity to foreign language learning (e.g., Lorenzo et al., 2020). However, streaming processes, such as those of the Community of Madrid Bilingual Program, may reinforce social inequalities among students (e.g., Llinares & Evnitskaya, 2020). In line with recent research comparing CLIL students’ affective factors in high exposure (HE) and low exposure (LE) tracks (e.g., Fernández-Agüero & Hidalgo-McCabe, 2020), the present study examines potential differences in the socioeconomic status (SES), CLIL motivation and exposure to English of HE and LE students at a bilingual (Spanish/English) secondary school in a low SES town in Madrid. A questionnaire measuring cultural and economic capital, CLIL motivation, and teachers’ use of English was administered to a sample of LE and all HE students in year 10. Results show that the students of lowest and highest SES were concentrated in LE and HE tracks, respectively. In the LE track, CLIL and English teachers used English less frequently, and students exhibited lower intrinsic motivation. For students with lower English proficiency (often of lower SES), access to the cultural and economic capital afforded by knowledge of English may be constrained by fewer meaningful learning opportunities.
Borobudur Story Relief, A Silent Visual Narration
Authors: Tabrani Primadi
Published: February 2022

Our research team found out that prehistory, primitive, traditional and children drawings havenearly the "same" visual language. It uses a different system of drawing then ours. We call these drawings as the 'Introductory' phase of drawing history. Their visuals have its 'grammar', so like in word language, visual language can tell stories. Both have time dimension needed for telling stories. So drawings from the 'introductory' phase are one picture that tells a story. This is one picture silent sequence that can have some scenes, without grids, without texts. This is in tune with Einstein General Relativity Theory (1916), which state that time and space cannot be separated, it is one entity. For a plane Einstein named it STP (Space "“ Time "“ Plane). In tune with it, this writer calls this 'new' system of drawing as the STP system of drawing. It has several modes, as: the Pradaksina, most characteristic view, multiple view, multiple time and place, twin, layers, film scene, X ray, make larger, make smaller, no perspective, no frame, no zoom ins/outs, etc. The onlookers can 'read' their pictures, because the artist and the onlookers use the same visual language. It is not a 'dead' still picture like a photo without time dimension, it is a 'living' still picture, which have time dimension.

Authors: Putiamary Anggie , Mansoor Alvanov Z.
Published: February 2022

In Indonesian culture, fear is one concept that can be found in traditional folklore which can be seen from various mystical stories from all around the archipelago with implicit moral message. In popular culture, ghost themed folklore then adapted in various media. At the presentation, folklore adaptation medium is closely related with ways to tell tales, or storytelling. One of the effective way in delivering content of a story is by including readerâs interest in a storyline. For example, by using such storyline, or even adding elements that can attract readerâs attention, so the readers may gain different experience in story reading, especially those including visual element.

In further development, horrorâthemed popular media faces sour response from audience as they fail to present interesting horror content despite the richness of local culture. Meanwhile, as one of the product of media digitalization, webcomic is a form of comic published in a website that can be accesed online. Some Indonesian webcomic sites has enough attention from the readers, but in the content, the comics are still using printed comic visualization standards, which is accessing page by page, and still not using website format content that is more flexible in visualization design and more interactive for readers. Seeing the condition, experiment of using webcomic in translating the sensation we get from horror genre has potential to lift supernaturalâthemed folklore culture in Indonesia. Horror stories can be presented as an immersing reading experience using website as a wideworld accesible platform. Mulltimediaâs role, such in webcomic is hoped to give novelty in visual narration and also adding insights through the unique side of Indonesian culture.

ENCONTROS EDUCATIVOS ENTRE A DANÇA, O ENSINO DA DANÇA E PAULO FREIRE
Authors: Cardilo Camila Moura , Sousa Cirlene Cristina de
Published: February 2022

O artigo tem como objetivo identificar possíveis encontros entre a dança, o ensino de dança e a educação humanizadora freireana. Além da leitura de artigos e trabalhos acadêmicos sobre dança, debruçou-se sobre as pedagogias de Paulo Freire. A partir desta pesquisa bibliográfica, notou-se alguns pontos de convergência entre a dança, no seu princípio educativo, e a educação freireana, no seu sentido libertador. A partir dessa convergência, chegou-se a cinco encontros fundamentais entre a dança, o ensino da dança e a educação humanizadora freireana, a saber: dança – movimento, dança – emancipação; dança – corpo molhado de cultura; dança – comunicação e dança – conscientização. Na conclusão, destaca-se a dança como um exercício libertador complexo do ser humano no mundo. O dançar não se pode resumir a uma tarefa mecânica do corpo. Ao contrário, a dança é uma atitude humana, um fazer-se, um colocar-se como corpo em movimento, como corpo consciente de si e do mundo.
NARRATIVAS AUTO(MITO)POIÉTICAS DE UMA PROFESSORA SOBRE A EDUCAÇÃO, A CORPOREIDADE E O LAZER EM DIÁLOGOS COM PAULO FREIRE
Authors: Alves Vania de Fatima Noronha
Published: February 2022

Tendo como referência a minha história de vida no processo de me tornar professora e, ao longo dos quase quarenta anos de docência no ensino básico e no superior, destaco nesse artigo narrativas auto(mito)poiéticas que permitiram analisar a presença dos conceitos de corporeidade e lazer em minha formação e atuação docente, em diálogo com os escritos de Paulo Freire. Desenvolvo o artigo apresentando minha aproximação com o pensamento freireano destacando a graduação em Educação Física realizada nos tempos da ditadura e algumas experiências ao longo da prática pedagógica nas escolas. Em seguida, extraio dos escritos de Freire elementos para a compreensão sobre o  conceito de corpo. Assumindo que o corpo consciente é aquele que vive plena e ludicamente sua presença no mundo, ocupando espaços, experimentando sua cultura, constituindo identidades e subjetividades diversas, relacionando consigo, com o outro e com o planeta; discuto o lazer, fenômeno cultural onde essas experiências se tornam possíveis. É nessa dimensão da vida humana que, privilegiadamente homens e mulheres vivem seus corpos, suas resistências e  seus sonhos. Concluo afirmando que  o amor, como imaginava Freire, é a saída para nossos sonhos utópicos de uma sociedade que  proporcione dignidade coletiva e esperança de justiça nesse mundo.
GRUPO DE ESTUDOS AFRO-BRASILEIROS (GEAB): REFLEXÕES SOBRE A EDUCAÇÃO DAS RELAÇÕES ÉTNICO-RACIAIS
Authors: Arruda Daniel Péricles
Published: February 2022

Neste artigo, são apresentadas reflexões a partir de experiências no Grupo de Estudos Afro-brasileiros (Geab), vinculado ao Núcleo de Inclusão Racial (NIR), da Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Minas Gerais (PUC Minas). Esse grupo consistia-se como referência no estudo e na produção de conhecimento científico acerca da realidade racial; em auxiliar a universidade acerca dessa temática. Dessa maneira, o estudo apoia-se na abordagem qualitativa documental e na base teórica interdisciplinar. Ao analisar as experiências do Geab, conclui-se que esse grupo corroborou significativamente no debate acerca das relações étnico-raciais, em especial, sobre o racismo e as cotas raciais – temas efervescentes naquele contexto –, e possibilitou que vários/as discentes pudessem se reconhecer e se afirmar negros/as e tivessem o entendimento, a fundamentação teórica e o posicionamento crítico acerca dessas questões.
INTERVENÇÕES EPISTÊMICAS SOBRE A BÁRBARIE E A RETÓRICA DO ÓDIO CONTRA PAULO FREIRE
Authors: Santos Maéve Melo dos , Santos Cosme Batista dos
Published: February 2022

Trata-se de um estudo sobre a barbárie e a retórica do ódio contra Paulo Freire, buscando elementos que explicitem a discussão contemporânea das evidências científicas na alfabetização, que trazem no seu bojo um apagamento dos ideais freirianos e das concepções construtivistas da alfabetização. Objetiva apresentar os signos ideológicos dessa guerra cultural e suas reverberações, refletindo sobre o discurso das evidências científicas e a retomada da alfabetização fonêmica. Para tanto, faremos uso do método da etnografia textual (ROCHA, 2021) que envolve descrição densa e interpretação crítica das manifestações dos gestores do atual governo e recorrência à intertextualidade (BRANDÃO, 2004; KOCH e TRAVAGLIA, 2016; TIPHANE, 1968), ou seja, a relação entre os enunciados descritos para revelar os pressupostos e as possíveis repercussões da guerra cultural contra as ideias de Paulo Freire e contra a ciência da educação, particularmente, contra os fundamentos do construtivismo. As percepções iniciais sinalizam um retorno às práticas alfabetizadoras tendo como base teórica o método fonético, conduzido por institutos privados com base nas “evidências científicas”. Questiona-se: o que isso quer dizer? Os estudos anteriores no campo da alfabetização não teriam evidências científicas? Esta é a série que este estudo pretende desmontar e desvelar.

Background: Childhood cancer is the second leading cause of death in children. Approximately, 40% of children with cancer need to be admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), which plays a key role in their treatment procedure and overall survival. Objectives: In this study, we aimed at evaluating the impact of ICU admission on pediatric patients’ survival and prognosis at Mahak Pediatric Cancer Treatment and Research Center (MPCTRC), Tehran, Iran. Methods: Amongst a total number of 2693 hospitalized patients who were referred to our center from March 2014 to September 2019, 674 patients younger than 14 years of age who were at least admitted once to the ICU were included in this study. All the collected data were analyzed using IBM-SPSS software version 22. Results: Totally, 48.96% of patients were female and 51.03% of them were male. The most frequent types of cancer were central nervous system tumors (33.23%) and Leukemia (18.99%). Additionally, 43.62% of admitted patients were in the 1 - 4 age group, with the mean age of 1.5 ± 0.30. The mortality rate in ICU was 40.20% and the overall survival (OS) rate was 29.5% ± 2.6. Moreover, the OS in children with solid tumors and non-solid tumors were 27.1% ± 5.5 and 32.6% ± 3.1, respectively. Conclusions: The results of this conducted study provide a complete report on the status of children admitted to the ICU ward in Mahak Hospital. Because of this fact that the most frequent type of cancer was CNS tumors and children with CNS tumors are usually admitted to the ICU in the late stages of their disease, the overall survival rate in our study was 29.80%, which is lower than other studies.

Apresença de Plotino no pensamento de Henri Bergson: arqueologia de uma relação
Authors: Costa Carvalho Magda ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: February 2022

Henri Bergson’s statements on Plotinus are an interesting case-study for his readers, contrasting between an avowed sympathy (in the Courses at the Collège de France) and an almost absence of references (in his writings). While Bergson-the-professor is interested in the study of Plotinus’ work for its own sake, Bergson-the-philosopher identifies the Neoplatonist with the matrix of an entire metaphysical body of knowledge: the Ancient Greek philosophy. The article seeks to highlight the articulation between the professor and the philosopher, exploring the scope of Plotinian influences in the construction and consolidation (albeit implicit) of Bergson’s thought - whether by adherence or demarcation -, focusing on three essential concepts: soul, sympathy, and causality.

Authors: Ranjith A.P. , Priyadarsanan Dharma Rajan
Published: February 2022

Trieces Townes, 1946 is one of the largest metopiine genera for which species have been described from all zoogeographical regions except the Indomalayan. The present study reports a major range extension of Trieces with the description of three new species from India. The described species are members of the onitis species group. An identification key to the Palearctic and Indomalayan species of the onitis group is included with the revised generic diagnosis and a key to separate Trieces from its closest genus Chorinaeus. Distribution pattern and character plasticity of Trieces are also discussed.

Published: February 2022

Myo-Inositol and D-chiro-inositol (MI-DCI) are used in the treatment of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) due to their insulin-sensitizing actions. Therefore, it is of interest to evaluate the treatment patterns, clinical effectiveness and safety of MI-DCI combination in management of PCOS in Indian women .Data from 50 healthcare centers across India between September 2019 and February 2020 were used in the study. Women aged 12-45 years diagnosed with PCOS, who had received MI-DCI (550-150 mg) were included. The outcome parameters were change in weight, luteinizing hormone (LH)/follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) ratio, hirsutism, blood glucose and insulin levels, HOMA-IR, and lipid profile. 283 women (mean age: 27.74 years; body mass index: 26.89 kg/m2); of which 197 (69.61%) reported reduction in weight after treatment with MI-DCI. The proportion of hirsutism score reduced after treatment, no hirsutism increased from 31.07% to 50.51% and the severe reduced from 4.85% to zero and moderate from 32.52% to 6.12%. There was a significant reduction in LH:FSH ratio (mean difference: 0.25 mg/dL; p=0.021), free testosterone (mean difference: 1.49; p<0.001) and dehydroepiandrosterone (mean difference: 21.49; P<0.001) levels after regular use of MI-DCI tablets.Treatment with MI-DCI resulted in significant improvement in insulin, HOMA score, FPG, PPG and lipid profile. The therapy restored menstruation and spontaneous ovulation and significantly attenuated the LH/FSH ratio. Thus, MI-DCI (550-150 mg) has shown multidimensional benefits in improving the hormonal, glycemic, and lipid profile of women with PCOS with considerable efficacy and tolerability.

The Gas Sensing Metrology Group at NIST provides accurate, stable gaseous standards for use in various types of emissions testing and environmental monitoring. The group develops and maintains the highest level of primary gas standards, which provide direct traceability to the International System of Units (SI). This traceability is then realized through the certification and dissemination of reference gas standards, such as NIST Standard Reference Materials (SRMs). Gas mixture SRMs are produced by a specialty gas company, analyzed by NIST against primary gas standards, and sold to customers to provide traceability for their gas measurements. This document provides an overview of the gas metrology program at NIST, and describes the general procedures which are used to develop and certify gas mixture SRMs.

Three in one instant coffee is popular among university students. A variety brands of such instant coffee are available on the market. However, the literature on the sensory aspects of the instant coffee is rather limited slim. The project aimed to test three-in-one instant coffee sachets for their sensory characteristics. Two methods, CATA (Attributes and Emotional Mapping) and Flash Profile (extension of Free Choice Profiling) were employed to generate the attribute profiles and emotional dashboard. Sixty IPB University students were selected as panelists. Sensory attributes terminologies and their relation to emotion were generated using Focus Group Discussion among instant coffee heavy drinker. Profile of coffee D showed a creamy texture, while sweetness and milky was dominant when it came to coffee B and coffee C. The creaminess in coffee G was strongly related to feelings of happiness in a consumer. In addition, the sweet and milky taste and flavor in coffee B was seen as a relaxing and luxurious feeling. A Preference Mapping was constructed, and it showed that sweetness, milky, and creaminess improved the liking of the student consumers that make coffee C the most preferred brand among the panelists. In short, the use of flash profiles and check-all-it-dilute/CATA (attributes and emotional) equipped with preference mapping can provide emotional attributes and dashboards that will be important to understand products more than just consumer liking.
