Authors: Luu Nguyen Quoc Hung
Published: November 2021

Online learning has experienced rapid growth recently, particularly due to many schools’ closures because of the Covid-19 pandemic. While the number of online learners is steadily growing, retaining learners in online courses and programs has posed a challenge. Retention rates are vital data that is indicative of an institution’s ability to engage learners in their learning, satisfy their educational needs, and prevent them from dropping out. With the aim to explore possible reasons why learners drop out in their online learning and identify effective ways to improve learner retention, this study examines 164 online learners at a center of foreign languages through an online survey. The findings indicate that online learning is still a revolutionary trend of education and learner retention rates have been positive in most online courses. Practical recommendations are included so that institutions can use these results immediately to impact their policies and practices.
Brazil’s National System for the Evaluation of Higher Education: Context, Challenges and Perspectives
Authors: Verhine Robert Evan , Dantas Lys Maria Vinhaes
Published: November 2021

This article discusses the implementation of the National System for the Evaluation of Higher Education (SINAES) from its inception in 2004 to present times, giving special attention to advances achieved and to the challenges that must be met in the near future. After a discussion of higher education quality assurance from an international perspective, the text examines adjustments that have been made to operationalize the implementation of the SINAES model and then emphasizes the importance of improving the self-evaluation component of the System. The article concludes by addressing the challenges that must still be met, such as the inclusion within SINAES of state higher education systems, the improvement of indicators and external evaluators, the effective utilization evaluation results, the need to distinguish evaluation processes from regulation policies, and the possibility of transforming the existing framework into a multidimensional evaluation model.
Billroth II procedure for the treatment of spontaneous gastrointestinal perforation in two cats
Authors: Barandun Marc A. , Mullins Ronan A. , Rytz Ulrich
Published: November 2021

CASE DESCRIPTION

A 9-year-old castrated male domestic shorthair cat (cat 1) and a 10-year-old castrated male Maine Coon cat (cat 2) were presented for recurrent feline lower urinary tract disease after receiving outpatient care from their primary veterinarians.

CLINICAL FINDINGS

Physical examination findings for both cats were initially within reference limits. After a short period of hospitalization, both cats developed peritoneal effusion; results of cytologic analysis of a sample of the fluid were consistent with septic peritonitis. During exploratory laparotomy, perforation of the pylorus or proximal portion of the duodenum secondary to ulceration was identified.

TREATMENT AND OUTCOME

Both cats underwent partial duodenectomy, partial gastrectomy (pylorectomy), and gastrojejunostomy (Billroth II procedure). The cats recovered from surgery and returned to a normal quality of life; however, each had mild episodes of anorexia but maintained a stable body weight. Cat 2 required additional surgery for trichobezoar removal 7 weeks later but recovered quickly. At 7 months after trichobezoar removal, cat 2 developed intermittent vomiting, but clinicopathologic, abdominal ultrasonographic, and upper gastrointestinal tract endoscopic findings were within reference limits. At 9 (cat 2) and 13 (cat 1) months after the Billroth II procedure, both cats were reported to be in good general health and without gastrointestinal signs.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

In both cats, the Billroth II procedure was technically straightforward and associated with a full recovery and good medium- to long-term quality of life. A Billroth II procedure could be considered for treatment of cats with large mural lesions in the pyloroduodenal region.

OBJECTIVE

To evaluate outcomes of dogs with parathyroid carcinoma (PTC) treated by surgical excision and to describe the incidence of postoperative hypocalcemia, degree of hypocalcemia, duration of hospitalization, duration of calcium supplementation, and survival time

ANIMALS

100 client-owned dogs with PTC admitted to academic, referral veterinary institutions.

PROCEDURES

In a retrospective multi-institutional study, medical records of dogs undergoing surgical excision of PTC between 2010 to 2019 were reviewed. Signalment, relevant medical history, clinical signs, clinicopathologic testing, imaging, surgical findings, intraoperative complications, histologic examination, and survival time were recorded.

RESULTS

100 dogs with PTC were included, and 96 dogs had clinical or incidental hypercalcemia. Common clinical signs included polyuria (44%), polydipsia (43%), hind limb paresis (22%), lethargy (21%), and hyporexia (20%). Cervical ultrasonography detected a parathyroid nodule in 91 of 91 dogs, with a single nodule in 70.3% (64/91), 2 nodules in 25.3% (23/91), and ≥ 3 nodules in 4 (4/91)% of dogs. Hypercalcemia resolved in 89 of 96 dogs within 7 days after surgery. Thirty-four percent of dogs developed hypocalcemia, on the basis of individual analyzer ranges, within 1 week after surgery. One dog had metastatic PTC to the prescapular lymph node, and 3 dogs were euthanized for refractory postoperative hypocalcemia. Estimated 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival rates were 84%, 65%, and 51% respectively, with a median survival time of 2 years.

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE

Excision of PTC results in resolution of hypercalcemia and excellent long-term tumor control. Surgical excision of PTC is recommended because of resolution of hypercalcemia and a good long-term prognosis. Future prospective studies and long-term follow-up are needed to further assess primary tumor recurrence, metastasis, and incidence of postoperative hypocalcemia.

OBJECTIVE

To evaluate outcomes in cats undergoing subtotal colectomy for the treatment of idiopathic megacolon and to determine whether removal versus nonremoval of the ileocecocolic junction (ICJ) was associated with differences in outcome.

ANIMALS

166 client-owned cats.

PROCEDURES

For this retrospective cohort study, medical records databases of 18 participating veterinary hospitals were searched to identify records of cats with idiopathic megacolon treated by subtotal colectomy from January 2000 to December 2018. Data collection included perioperative and surgical variables, complications, outcome, and owner perception of the procedure. Data were analyzed for associations with outcomes of interest, and Kaplan-Meier survival time analysis was performed.

RESULTS

Major perioperative complications occurred in 9.9% (15/151) of cats, and 14% (12/87) of cats died as a direct result of treatment or complications of megacolon. The median survival time was not reached. Cats with (vs without) a body condition score < 4/9 (hazard ratio [HR], 5.97), preexisting heart disease (HR, 3.21), major perioperative complications (HR, 27.8), or long-term postoperative liquid feces (HR, 10.4) had greater hazard of shorter survival time. Constipation recurrence occurred in 32% (24/74) of cats at a median time of 344 days and was not associated with retention versus removal of the ICJ; however, ICJ removal was associated with long-term liquid feces (OR, 3.45), and a fair or poor outcome on owner assessment (OR, 3.6).

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE

Results indicated that subtotal colectomy was associated with long survival times and a high rate of owner satisfaction. Removal of the ICJ was associated with less favorable outcomes in cats of the present study.

Authors: Horga Adeline Larisa , Neamţu Mihai Leonida
Published: November 2021

Respiratory tract infections are the most common infections find at pediatric age. Children with lower respiratory tract infections can presents severe forms, which is why early diagnosis and treatment are essential. Choosing the therapy is made according to the etiology, but at the time of admission it is difficult to establish the etiology of the disease and for this reason, most often, it is decided to initiate the antibiotic therapy. Excessive antibiotic prescription, in cases that it is not justified, is really a problem because it contributes to the increase of antimicrobial resistance. A study was conducted in order to limit the hypothesis of prolonged antibiotic therapy, which also prolongs the duration of hospitalization. By anticipating C-reactive protein and procalcitonin levels we could guide or reconsider the antibiotic treatment.

Published: November 2021

Acquired thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is a rare thrombotic microangiopathy, affecting preferentially young women in their fourth decade. Intensive care admission is often required due to organ dysfunction development risk and for specific critical care measures (Plasma Exchange-PEX). In this article, we will discuss our experience with PEX in the treatment of TTP. Case report: A previously healthy 13-year-old female presented with neurological impairment, and suspicion of stroke. The head computed tomography (CT) scan revealed absence of acute intracranian pathology, and biological evaluation displayed severe thrombocytopenia and haemolytic anemia. After 24 hours, the neurological symptoms were remitted and suspicion of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura was raised. The presence of ADAMTS-13 antibodies and Moschcowitz’s pentad confirmed the diagnosis. Discussions: The distinctiveness of this case lies in the development of the disease in a 13-year-old person, though TTP usually occurs after the age of 40. The exact cause of ADAMTS-13 low activity could not be established. The use of a high dose of steroids and of plasma exchange is considered to be the first line therapy, with the use of monoclonal antibodies in refractory cases, as it was in our case. Conclusions: The primary end points of our management was to prevent organ damage and to achieve a platelet count greater than 150 000 /µL, as well as a normal or an almost normal lactate dehydrogenase. We achieved this by using high dose corticosteroid therapy, filtration of approximately 50 liters of plasma in 14 PEX session and by administration of monoclonal antibodies.

Published: November 2021

Background/Aim: Gunshot injury-related mandibular fractures often have a complex pattern, characterized by comminution, bone loss, and soft-tissue avulsion. The management is difficult and varies between individual cases. Case Report: A 41-year-old male patient presented with marked swelling and ecchymosis in the left mandibular region. Intraorally, he had a deviated open bite on the left side. A unilateral comminuted mandibular fracture was diagnosed by panoramic radiograph and computed tomography. An acrylic dental splint-guided open reduction and internal fixation, including intermaxillary fixation through brackets and intermaxillary elastics, was planned. No complications were observed throughout the healing period, and healing at the fracture site was satisfactory. The occlusion returned to the pre-injury position and was stable. Conclusions: This case report shows that successful functional and esthetic results can be achieved with a strict patient-specific treatment protocol for a comminuted mandibular fracture due to gunshot injury.

A case report of suspicious lung cancer or atypical mycobacteria amidst the pandemic era
Authors: Mitri Maria , Waked Myrna
Published: November 2021

Background: Starting 2020, the medical guidelines were shacked by COVID-19 pandemic. The threshold for hospital admission increased in order to limit Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus 2 spread. All this affected screening such as for lung cancer which remained largely undiagnosed. On the other hand, it became challenging to differentiate easily between COVID-19 and other diseases such as atypical infections and simple community acquired pneumonia. Moreover, immunocompromised patients are at higher risk of COVID-19 infection overshadowing any other infection such as tuberculosis and non-tuberculosis infections.
Case Presentation: We present the case of an 85-year-old female with a long history of scleroderma treated with methotrexate. Patient had non-resolving pneumonia and after two negative RT-PCR, bronchoalveolar lavage showed positive Real Time Polymerase Chain Reaction. Imaging showed persistent 2.6 cm solid nodule in left upper lobe worrisome for an underlying neoplasm. However, culture of Bronchoalveolar lavage grew with few colonies of acid fast bacilli making the diagnosis atypical mycobacteria highly probable especially that patient is chronically immunosuppressed. Unfortunately, she refused further genotyping.
Conclusion: To authors knowledge that are no, or few reported cases of associated COVID-19 with atypical mycobacterial infections and the treatment modalities are unclear. The diagnosis of mycobacterial infections is usually difficult and in the setting of COVID-19 this becomes more challenging. Hence, a more thorough clinical approach is needed for the future to help clinicians diagnose and treat complicated cases of COVID-19 and concomitant other infections such as TB or Nontuberculous Mycobacteria. Furthermore, amidst the pandemic screening of lung cancer should continue while maintaining safety precautions.

Inventors and Innovators: Naval Lighterage and Anglo-American Success in the Amphibious Invasions of German-Occupied Europe
Authors: Blazich Frank A.
Published: November 2021

The amphibious invasions of Sicily, Salerno, and Normandy all made ample use of US Navy landing pontoons. The simple steel box pontoons were the brainchild of civil engineer Captain John N. Laycock, who developed and perfected his inventive design on the eve of American entry into World War II. Once in the conflict, a Royal Navy reserve officer assigned to Combined Operations Headquarters, Captain Thomas A. Hussey, conceptualized innovative uses for the American pontoons for offensive amphibious operations. Working together, these men developed pontoon causeways and massive lighterage barges which ensured logistical success in the invasions of German-occupied Europe.
Les invasions amphibies de la Sicile, de Salerne et de la Normandie ont toutes fait appel aux pontons de débarquement de la Marine américaine. Les simples pontons flottants en acier ont été créés par le capitaine John N. Laycock, ingénieur civil, qui a développé et perfectionné sa conception géniale à la veille de l’entrée des États-Unis dans la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Une fois le conflit déclenché, le capitaine Thomas A. Hussey, officier de réserve de la Marine royale affecté au quartier général des opérations combinées, a mis au point des utilisations novatrices des pontons américains pour les opérations amphibies offensives. La collaboration de ces deux hommes a permis de développer des chaussées de pontons et d’énormes barges de chalandage qui ont assuré le succès logistique des invasions de l’Europe occupée par les Allemands.

Published: November 2021

Ruang lingkup penelitian ini adalah untuk menemukan nilai pada perempuan Samin yang sering dibatasi secara subjektif oleh sentimen masyarakat. Kondisi tersebut sudah berlangsung lama, dimulai ketika bangsa Indonesia dijajah Eropa yang memperlakukan mereka dengan sentiment-sentimen negatif. Sentimen yang menyebut mereka berperilaku nyeleneh yang kemudian mengakibatkan munculnya stigma negatif, sehingga membuatnya masuk dalam pengelompokkan yang secara tidak langsung terpinggirkan. Sehingga nilai-nilai kehidupan mereka yang dianggap tidak wajar selalu melekat pada kelompoknya. Untuk mengurai permasalahan tersebut maka dalam penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan deskriptif kualitatif dengan pengambilan data melalui pengamatan pasif, wawancara dan analisis dokumen. Tentu dengan mengkategorikan informan yaitu perempuan di komunitas Samin generasi terdahulu dan sekarang. Temuan penelitian menunjukkan bahwa hingga saat sekarang ketahanan nilai masih lestari. Oleh sebab ketahanan nilai bagian dari bentuk penghormatan mulia terhadap ajaran leluhurnya. Secara praksis, bentuk nilai perempuan komunitas Samin tergambar pada bentuk budaya patriarki yang masih terjaga, menerapkan nilai kejatmikaan seperti jujur, taat, sifat kendali diri, serta etika yang tidak merendahkan orang lain.

The components of the concept of "quality of life monitoring", in particular, "social monitoring" and "quality of life", as well as a number of related concepts "Standard of living", "Lifestyle", etc. are considered. It is justified that monitoring is a universal technology because it is used to study objects of any environment. Under monitoring, the author understands a comprehensive method of cognitive and subject-practical activities aimed at continuous monitoring of the state of the social environment by predetermined parameters to analyze the state of the environment and its control, which allows effective forecasting and making optimal management decisions. At the same time, the systematic diagnosis of social well-being of the region's population with the help of sociological monitoring should intensify the dialogue of the population with local governments under the conditions that research will make appropriate management decisions and citizens will be informed. Analysis of different interpretations of the definition of "quality of life" shows that quality of life is a complex complex phenomenon of social life, each of the structural elements of which is a reflection of economic, social, political, legal, ideological relations in society, and therefore understood as social wellbeing population as a whole. The concept of "quality of life" is integrative in relation to such categories as "lifestyle", "standard of living", "lifestyle", "lifestyle", "standard of living". These concepts reveal and specify the content of the category "quality of life" at different levels of analysis of dynamics.
PROSPECTS FOR DEVELOPMENT OF THE EXPORT POTENTIAL OF THE CROP IN UKRAINE
Authors:   Sumy National Agrarian University, Pylypenko Viacheslav , Hryshchenko Inna ,   Sumy National Agrarian University
Published: November 2021

The article analyzes the prospects for the development of the export potential of the crop industry in Ukraine. Based on the analysis of statistical data over the past 20 years, it has been established that the reform of the agricultural sector of the economy, which took place in the early 2000s, led to the creation of large agricultural companies, which concentrated in their hands most of the agricultural land and were able to significantly increase the volume of exports. agricultural products. It was revealed that the growth rates of exports of crop products significantly exceed the growth rates of exports of both products of the agricultural sector as a whole, and exports in general for the Ukrainian economy as a whole. The basis of the export potential is made up of grains and oilseeds. At the same time, it is shown that the last 4 years, the export of oilseeds, and over the last 2 years and cereals to a certain extent, has stabilized, which indicates a possible approach to the border of export opportunities for traditional types of agricultural products. The share of crop production over the past decade has increased by about 3 times, and grain - by 4 times. On the one hand, this is evidence of the growing importance of the agricultural sector of the Ukrainian economy in the national economy, and on the other hand, it is evidence of the fact that our country is a supplier of raw materials. According to the authors, Ukraine has almost reached the export potential of the physical volumes of crop production. Their further increase can lead to serious disruptions in the domestic market and cause a significant reduction in the production of livestock products, which already do not meet the needs of the population in livestock food. Over the past 7 years, the volume of physical exports has grown by 76%, and in value terms - by 43.6%. This is evidence of the fact that building up export potential through increased sales of raw materials is strategically unprofitable. It is concluded that it is necessary to change the structure of exports in favor of processed products of crop production.

The article is devoted to the review of novelties of the legislation in the part of disposition of property rights to objects of patent law and know-how. Based on the analysis of the existing legislation, it is established that there is an exclusive list of the following agreements: license to use the object of intellectual property rights; license agreement; agreement on the creation by order and use of the object of intellectual property rights; agreement on the transfer of exclusive intellectual property rights; another agreement on the disposal of intellectual property rights. It is noted that the agreement on the transfer (use) of «know-how» differs from that for the patent. The basis for granting the right to use «know-how» is not an exclusive right, but a de facto monopoly on the object of the agreement. «Know-how» in contrast to the patented invention can not be used without receiving it from the owner. The consequence of this is the need not only to grant the right of use under the contract, but also the transfer of the «knowhow» in full. It is noted that the legislator has significantly simplified the contractual procedures for granting the right to dispose of property rights for pharmaceutical companies due to the need to combat the pandemic. Lists of substances and medical procedures, medical equipment that cannot be the subject of patent protection have been established. It is emphasized that the legislator does not take into account the current level of digitalization, where the right to own or use intellectual property is certified by numerous electronic methods. For example, by confirming electronic licenses, user terms, affiliate programs with a number of intermediaries. Accordingly, it is necessary to expand the list of possible reliable ways of certifying contracts, which could be considered written or be equated to such a way. The bill №5552, which proposes amendments to the law «On Copyright and Related Rights», in terms of combating «patent trolling» was analyzed. The authors of the bill propose a number of administrative procedures that will help to respond quickly to such unfair actions of competitors. At the same time, it is noted that with the expansion of the contractual procedure, some of these cases could be avoided. It is proposed, as part of the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic, to introduce compulsory licensing, in order to reduce the real cost of drugs against the virus, as well as the logistics of specialized hospitals.

The article deals with the situation of domestic violence against women in Ukraine during the COVID-19 pandemic. A comparison of various statistical and reporting materials of the Ministry of Social Policy of Ukraine, the National Police of Ukraine, courts, free legal aid centres, international organizations led to the conclusion that although in Ukraine there is intolerance of domestic violence against women in its various manifestations. This phenomenon is still often invisible and takes many different forms, stemming from the gender inequalities that women face throughout their lives, from childhood to old age. The main tasks and measures that are aimed at preventing and combating domestic violence against women are identified and an analysis of their implementation is analysed. Such measures include prevention of domestic violence by overcoming negative stereotypes in Ukrainian society, raising public awareness of the forms, manifestations, causes and consequences of domestic violence; responding to domestic violence by building a new violence response system to ensure coordination and effective interaction of specially bodies authorized implementing measures to prevent and combat domestic violence, other bodies and institutions performing functions related to carrying out activities in the field of domestic violence prevention and counteraction to domestic violence; ensuring the availability and quality of providing necessary social services to victims of domestic violence; proper investigation of the facts of domestic violence, bringing the perpetrators to justice and changing their behaviour.

The article is devoted to the analysis of the essence of the information society and the definition of the conceptual characteristics of its legal standards. The lack of a coordinated scientific position of the theoretical interpretation of the concept of information society is stated. Scientific positions are grouped into two groups: the first group of scientists positions the information society narrowly, by generalizing it with information as the main resource of social reality. Another group of scientists expand the concept, introducing a number of additional key features. It is concluded that the considered society reflects the tendency of a new round of evolution of the world development of civilized peoples, which is connected with modern information and telecommunication technological progress. It is proved that the legal regulation of relations in the information society is designed to develop basic standards for the functioning of such a society, the creation of appropriate conditions for a person to be in such a society. The search for optimal means and methods of legal regulation can not be simple and one-sided, as it is necessary to take into account the positive and negative trends in society. It is stated that the information society can represent significant benefits for the state and the individual citizen to protect the legal values of democracy, equality, non-discrimination. The characteristics of the manifestation of legal standards of the information society are considered, in particular: transformation of established constitutional institutions and change of their manifestation; modification of the legal ideology of society; conflict of national practice and unification of international standards; expanding the understanding of the concept of "subject of law"; the emergence of a number of new generation rights or the expansion of the elemental composition of an established system of rights.
