Authors: Ahmed Abdullah Sakar , Othman Smail Harem , Hattem Hussain Ali
Published: November 2023

This study aimed to measure the prevalence of Hashimoto's Thyroiditis among patients with thyroid diseases in Sulaimani city and to observe some features of this autoimmune disorder. Hashimoto's Thyroiditis, also known as Hashimoto's disease, is an essential cause of Hypothyroidism. Blood samples ‎were collected from 203 patients suffering from thyroid disease in Sulaimani endocrine center and Bakshin Private Hospital in Sulaimani city from December 2018 to March 2019. Serum levels of thyroid hormones, anti-thyroid peroxidase antibodies, anti-thyroglobulin antibodies, and anti-‎thyroid-stimulating hormone ‎receptor antibodies were determined using Cobas e411 Immuno‎analyzer; moreover, data about ‎gender, age, and family history of thyroid disease were recorded. The prevalence of Hashimoto's Thyroiditis among all thyroid patients was 62% (n=126/203), while Graves' disease was 15.3% (n=31/203); thus, autoimmune diseases represent 77.3% (157/203) of thyroid diseases. Hypothyroidism is diagnosed in 155/203 (76.4%) thyroid diseases, while the remaining 23.6% were patients with hyperthyroidism. The demographic data revealed that 88.9% (n=112/126) of Hashimoto's Thyroiditis are females, while 11.1 % (n=14/126) are males. The peak incidence of Hashimoto's Thyroiditis is in the age group 36-45 years; a family history of thyroid diseases was recorded in 64.3% of Hashimoto's patients. The correlation coefficient between anti-thyroid peroxidase antibodies and the ages of Hashimoto's Thyroiditis patients is 0.21938. Hashimoto's Thyroiditis is the main thyroid disorder in Sulaimani city among patients with thyroid diseases, Hypothyroidism, and autoimmune thyroid disorders; both seropositive and seronegative anti-thyroid peroxidase antibodies are recorded among Hashimoto's Thyroiditis patients. Family history of thyroid disorders and females of childbearing age are possible risk factors for developing Hashimoto's Thyroiditis. There is no significant correlation between anti-thyroid peroxidase antibodies concentrations and ages of Hashimoto's Thyroiditis patients, but these antibodies are much higher in Hashimoto's females than in Hashimoto's Thyroiditis males

Published: November 2023

Background: Gallstone ileus is a rare complication of cholelithiasis and mainly affects elder women. It is caused by gallstone migration through a cholecystoenteric fistula producing bowel obstruction, with the need for surgical treatment. Objective: The aim of this work was to describe the preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative variables of a case series of gallstone ileus and the incidence of recurrent gallstone ileus. Material and methods: We conducted an observational and retrospective study of patients undergoing surgery due to acute bowel obstruction caused by gallstone ileus between January 2009 and December 2021. The variables analyzed were imaging tests, comorbidities, surgical approach, type of surgery, morbidity and mortality and recurrent ileus. Results: Of 667 patients admitted with bowel obstruction, 21 had gallstone ileus (3.1%). The diagnosis was made by computed tomography scan in 80% of the cases. The surgical approach was laparotomy in 20 cases and 1 patient undergoing laparoscopy required conversion. Enterotomy with enterorrhaphy was the most common procedure used in 18 cases. The obstruction was treated by immediate surgery, while the biliary fistula was deferred in most cases because the risk of immediate treatment was very high. Morbidity was 38% and recurrence of gallstone ileus 4.7%. No deaths were reported. Conclusion: Gallstone ileus was a rare condition that was correctly diagnosed and timely treated with surgery, with a low incidence of recurrent gallstone ileus.

Published: November 2023

Background: Acute appendicitis is one of the most common reasons for emergency departments visits and emergency surgery. In some cases, its diagnosis is still difficult. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of abdominal ultrasound in the diagnosis of acute appendicitis in a tertiary health care center. Material and methods: We conducted longitudinal study to evaluate the performance of a diagnostic test using data retrospectively collected. The population was made up of 113 patients [mean age: 24 years (range 3-90)], who consulted for pain in the right iliac fossa, underwent abdominal ultrasound and could be followed up until the results of the pathological examination were available between February 2016 and February 2018. The analysis included sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of ultrasound for the diagnosis of acute appendicitis. Results: Ultrasound was positive for the diagnosis of appendicitis in 32 patients (28.3%) and was negative in 81 patients (71.7%). Fifty-three patients (46.9%) underwent surgery; 44 (38.9%) had confirmed appendicitis while the appendix was healthy in 9 patients (7.96%), and among these patients, the ultrasound had been negative for appendicitis. Sensitivity was 68.1%, specificity 97.1%, the positive predictive value was 93.7% and the negative predictive value 82.7%, with a false positive rate of 6.3% and a false negative rate of 17.2%. Conclusion: The results obtained coincide with those of the international literature and confirm that ultrasound is a useful tool for the diagnosis of acute appendicitis.

Authors: Ayunda Defita , Syafrizal Syafrizal , Resdati Resdati
Published: November 2023

This study aims to determine the factors causing the rejection and the form of rejection of the street vendor relocation policy at the Padang Panjang City Central Market. The method used to obtain research results is a descriptive qualitative method. Data collection techniques in this study used in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation. Informants in this study amounted to 9 people with 1 key informant Head of Market Management and 8 street vendors in Pasar Baru Ring Road selected using a purposive sampling technique. The theory used in this study is Ralf Dahrendorf's conflict theory which suggests that there are two groups of interests in conflict, including groups that have authority and groups that must submit to authority. The results of this study indicate that there are two factors causing the refusal of the relocation policy, internal factors and external factors. The internal factors causing the rejection of the relocation policy, are the location of the business that has been occupied for a long time, higher income levels, and lower rents. External factors causing the rejection of the relocation policy, namely the arrangement of trading places that have not been well organized, and inconsistent law enforcement officials in relocating street vendors. The form of rejection of the street vendor relocation policy is in the form of continuing to sell in places that have been banned and protesting.

Climate change awareness in ELT: Ethnography in connected learning and ecojustice pedagogy
Authors: Silvhiany Sary , Kurniawan Dedi , Safrina Sri
Published: November 2023

This research article explores the integration of climate change education in the context of English as a Foreign Language teacher education. As climate–induced disasters are on the rise, the mitigation of climate change necessitates an interdisciplinary approach to climate education. While science education has extensively addressed climate change education, the field of language education and literacy has not taken drastic measures to participate in climate change education. The article heeds the call for more research on climate change education in second/foreign language and literacy programs. Using the connected learning and ecojustice pedagogy, we engaged 20 preservice teachers in exploring climate change issues within a semester-long creative writing course. Analyses of classroom discussions, reflective writing, and picture book projects showed that the preservice teachers’ awareness of climate change issues developed as they delved into the projects that required their understanding of the global climate issues with the local connection. The article concludes by arguing that connected learning and ecojustice pedagogy support the development of climate change awareness while facilitating preservice teachers’ multimodal writing skills. It recommends that language educators engage in interdisciplinary participation to address climate change issues through curricular engagements that support multimodal-based climate literacy learning.

Modulation of the heart’s immune microenvironment is crucial for recovery after ischemic events such as myocardial infarction (MI). Endothelial cells (ECs) can have immune regulatory functions; however, interactions between ECs and the immune environment in the heart after MI remain poorly understood. We identified an EC-specific IFN responsive and immune regulatory gene signature in adult and pediatric heart failure (HF) tissues. Single-cell transcriptomic analysis of murine hearts subjected to MI uncovered an EC population (IFN-ECs) with immunologic gene signatures similar to those in human HF. IFN-ECs were enriched in regenerative-stage mouse hearts and expressed genes encoding immune responsive transcription factors (Irf7,Batf2, andStat1). Single-cell chromatin accessibility studies revealed an enrichment of these TF motifs at IFN-EC signature genes. Expression of immune regulatory ligand genes by IFN-ECs suggests bidirectional signaling between IFN-ECs and macrophages in regenerative-stage hearts. Our data suggest that ECs may adopt immune regulatory signatures after cardiac injury to accompany the reparative response. The presence of these signatures in human HF and murine MI models suggests a potential role for EC-mediated immune regulation in responding to stress induced by acute injury in MI and chronic adverse remodeling in HF.

Published: November 2023

EIF4A1 and cofactors EIF4B and EIF4H have been well characterised in cancers, including B cell malignancies, for their ability to promote the translation of oncogenes with structured 5′ untranslated regions. However, very little is known of their roles in nonmalignant cells. Using mouse models to deleteEif4a1,Eif4borEif4hin B cells, we show that EIF4A1, but not EIF4B or EIF4H, is essential for B cell development and the germinal centre response. After B cell activation in vitro, EIF4A1 facilitates an increased rate of protein synthesis, MYC expression, and expression of cell cycle regulators. However, EIF4A1-deficient cells remain viable, whereas inhibition of EIF4A1 and EIF4A2 by Hippuristanol treatment induces cell death.

Authors: Somilo Olga V. , Shastun Natalia P.
Published: November 2023

Relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) is the most common demyelinating disease characterized by periods of disease exacerbation followed by partial or complete remission. Environmental risk factors in the occurrence of MS are widely studied. However, temporal, especially seasonal, fluctuations of multiple sclerosis (MS) and its relapses require clarification.
The aim of the study was to assess the impact of seasonal factors on the debut of the disease and complications of RRMS.
105 patients diagnosed with RRMS, aged 18 to 49 years, were examined, including 74 women (70.5%) and 31 men (29.5%). Patients underwent comprehensive clinical-anamnestic and neurological examinations. It was found that the debut of the disease in the majority of examined patients occurred in the spring months, and there was also an associative connection between the month of diagnosis establishment and the number of exacerbations in the past year. The highest number of exacerbations throughout the year was observed among patients diagnosed with MS in the spring months.
It was confirmed that the lowest frequency of exacerbations throughout the year was observed among patients receiving diseasemodifying therapy (DMT), while in patients without DMT, the indicator was the highest and exceeded (p<0.001) the indicator among
patients receiving DMT by 72.5%.
It was also established that the level of comorbid pathology in the group of patients not receiving DMT was higher compared to those examined who received therapy by 2.4 times (p<0.001). Correlation analysis showed that the number of comorbidities correlated with the season of the last exacerbation, the number of exacerbations in the past year (p<0.001), the number of symptoms of MS debut (p<0.001), and the use of DMT (p<0.001).

Published: November 2023

En este proyecto artístico Maureen Gubia trabaja a partir del encierro por la pandemia que le indujo a revisar y reinterpretar las imágenes de personas muy cercanas, los de su familia, dibujados y pintados en numerosos cuadernos a lo largo de casi dos décadas, junto con otras más recientes derivadas de capturas de pantallas de videollamadas con familiares que viven en Canadá y Chile. La artista se pregunta qué pasa cuando se reinventa una producción distante en el tiempo. Al hacerlo, descubre que necesita la fuerza interior, juvenil, vital, atrevida, confiada y desafiante de aquellos momentos para salir adelante en la complejidad del presente.

Este texto curatorial fue escrito para la exposición titulada La cueva que habito de Maureen Gubia realizada en los meses de junio y julio de 2023 en Proyecto N.A.S.A.L en Guayaquil (Ecuador).
DAVID ORBEA_ TRÓPICO INFORMAL
Authors: Kronfle Ch. Rodolfo
Published: November 2023

En sus ejercicios pictóricos, David Orbea ha destacado por simplificar formas que encuentra en diversos medios, desde fotografías de prensa hasta productos comerciales. Algunas de sus series adquieren cualidades abstractas, conservando su capacidad para comentar la realidad circundante. Por ejemplo, en 2015 intervino cajas de productos de consumo masivo, logrando una estetización que trascendía la categoría de los objetos utilizados como soporte. Hacia 2017, se aplicó a libros sobre liderazgo, lo que permitía proyectar asociaciones sociales o políticas. En "Trópico Informal," Orbea se enfoca en los esquemas cromáticos de construcciones urbanas, creando un mundo pictórico peculiar. Además, explora elementos arquitectónicos modernos y crea esculturas en cemento. Su enfoque en la informalidad tropical y la abstracción se traduce en una "abstracción sucia", que captura la identidad de sus referentes originales. De esta manera, preserva lo popular de manera sofisticada, capturando el simbolismo que atraviesa la estridencia de la vida urbana.
Ethem Baran’ın Emanet Gölgeler Defteri Romanında Yabancılaşma
Authors: BORA Büşra
Published: November 2023

Kavram olarak yabancılaşma, hayattan herhangi bir tat alamayan ve sosyal kabullere uymakta zorlanan kişinin zamanla öz benliğinden kopması ile çevresinden kendini soyutlayarak yabancılaşmasıdır. Bir başka deyişle insanın varoluşundan kopuşuna karşılık gelmektedir. Bu kopuş özellikle roman türünde derinden hissedilmektedir. Yaşamın akışında sürekli olarak değişen formlara uyum sağlayamayan birey, kendiliğini koruyamaz; gördüğü, düşündüğü, dokunduğu her şey ile arasına mesafe koyarak kendisini soyutlar. Zamanın ve yaşamın gölgesinde yaşayarak parçalanmış benliğiyle ne yapacağını bilemeyen ve giderek yabancılaşan birey, romanların merkezinde konumlanır. Özellikle yalnızlık hissi, hezeyanlar, bunalımlar bireyin iç sıkıntısını artırarak doruğa ulaştırmaktadır. Çünkü bu noktada birey kendi dışına çıkıp varlığını kuramamaktadır. Geçmişle gelecek arasındaki örüntüleri tayin edemediğinden aşkın amaçları kovalayamamaktadır. Sürüp giden gündelik hayatın kalıplaşmış edimleri arasında varoluşunu ve yaratıcılığını geri planda bırakmaktadır. Zaman içinde benliğini keşfetmekten uzaklaşan insan kendine ve her şeye yabancılaşmaktadır. “Emanet Gölgeler Defteri” romanında da 12 Eylül öncesinde yaşanan siyasi çalkantılar, eğitim, aşk ve yazarlık uğraşı Yağız’ın yabancılaşmasını gözler önüne sermektedir. Çünkü o, modern dünyada kendini eğreti görmektedir. Duygu ve hayat durumları açısından yoksullaşan bu dünyada kahramanın arzusu, tanıdığı kimselerde onlara yansıyan kendi benliğini görmektir. Arzusuna kavuşamayacağını anladığında sarsılan kahraman, benliğinin derinliklerinde özünü kaybederek mekâna, topluma, kendine yabancılaşmıştır. Söz konusu yabancılaşma roman başkişisinin varlık ile yokluk arasında gidip gelişlerini dahası çağın temel sorunsalını ortaya koymaktadır.

This study is motivated by the enactment of Indonesian Financial Service Authority (FSA) regulation. This regulation requires bank to implement remuneration scheme to their employee. It specifies that bank must have a plan to holdback or clawback the variable remuneration, to protect bank from imprudent risk taking.Our research has two objectives. First, this study is to detect post-implementation earnings management. Second, we determine factors that influence banks to choose clawback. Samples are all banks listed at the Indonesian Stock Exchange and are divided into two periods: pre- and post-regulation.The tests results indicate that banks manage their earnings after the adoption of the regulation. The second test result presents that earnings before tax, equity, and non-performing loans have a positive and statistically significant relationship with the banks intention to choose clawback. We also report some implications, limitations, and future research opportunities.

A gravidez não planejada na adolescência é bastante comum no Brasil e, com frequência, tem como origem a falta de educação sexual. Isso, consequentemente, pode levar a consecutivas gestações pelas jovens que desconhecem informações sobre métodos contraceptivos. Desse modo, este projeto teve como objetivo amparar, esclarecer dúvidas e disseminar informações sobre o uso de métodos anticoncepcionais para adolescentes grávidas e no puerpério. Trata-se de um relato de experiência realizado por oito discentes do curso de medicina da Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (UFPE) sobre as intervenções feitas no Hospital das Clínicas - UFPE e nas Unidades de Saúde da Família da Mangueira, Coqueiral II, São Miguel e Bongi, todas em Recife-PE. A extensão teve duas etapas, uma de formação teórica entre docentes e discentes, e outra de aplicação prática, que precisou ser adaptada devido à ausência de todas as pacientes nas rodas de conversas marcadas, assim, o projeto utilizou-se de conversas individuais. O projeto atingiu 74 gestantes e puérperas adolescentes, no formato remoto ou presencial, e 30 delas concordaram em participar. As conversas envolveram temáticas esclarecedoras sobre educação sexual e nelas 93,3% das participantes mostraram interesse em usar anticoncepcional no puerpério, 83,3% delas já utilizado anteriormente, e 53,3% possuíam conhecimento sobre mais de um método disponibilizado pelo Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS). Após a adaptação da abordagem, o projeto teve adesão satisfatória, podendo ser um precursor de medidas de intervenções sobre planejamento familiar durante o pré-natal da adolescente grávida.
Estudos e traduções à margem da filologia
Authors: Lindo Luiz Antônio
Published: November 2023

Os escritos que se seguem foram realizados ao longo de alguns anos, quer como exercícios escolares, quer como tarefas acadêmicas.
Fundamentalmente, eles começaram a tomar forma à proporção que os problemas para os quais se buscava solução iam sendo enfrentados.
Como a solução que se buscou não foi encontrada com a facilidade desejada, os problemas de alguma forma permaneceram, apenas aqui
e acolá um pouco menos opressivos. Curiosamente, à medida que se procurava aclarar as dúvidas reinantes, novas dificuldades se apresentavam, obrigando a fazer novas investidas nos estudos e perseverar nas tentativas de ordenar os fios de raciocínio que iam se desenovelando. Como resultado, novos escritos foram tomando o lugar dos antigos.
Fiquem tranquilos que só trouxe aqui os antigos, enquanto continuo me debruçando sobre os novos, sabendo que aos poucos estes também
vão se tornando antigos. Quem sabe, mais adiante proporei uma leitura destes últimos, certamente quando já serão passados e tiverem
repousado o suficiente.
Estes escritos já faz algum tempo que estão guardados. Alguns deles já rodaram as salas em conferência, outros nunca deixaram a escuridão da gaveta desde quando paradoxalmente vieram à luz. Todos, porém, indistintamente, só adquiriram a necessária desenvoltura após
serem submetidos a certas sessões de fisioterapia no tampo da escrivaninha. Como reagiram? Já digo: apesar de modorrentos e encarquilhados, não foi tão difícil como se pensa recuperar os seus movimentos, ao menos o bastante para deixá-los em condições de esvoaçar. Ao tratamento que receberam não faltaram, porém, confesso, algumas gotas da água lustral do pensamento, até que, revigorados, eles pudessem pôr-se em pé, e aí estão, prontos de novo para enfrentar a luz de led e a língua dos humanos.

Se desea conocer el impacto de la cirugía bariátrica en la perdida de peso según la resistencia a la insulina medida por HOMA-IR en nuestra población. Metodología: Cohorte mediante análisis de base de datos secundarios-anonimizados, recolectados entre 2016-2021 en una institución de alta complejidad en la ciudad de Bucaramanga, Santander, Colombia que fueron llevados a Gastrectomía vertical (GV) o Bypass gástrico (BGYR) con seguimiento a un año. Resultados: Respecto a la obesidad se logró normalización del IMC en el 42% llevados a GV y 26% a BGYR. En cuanto al síndrome metabólico de 94 pacientes cumplían criterios IDF adaptados a nuestra población previo a la intervención quirúrgica 60% GV y 20% BGYR persistiendo en menos del 2% en cada grupo posterior a un año esta condición. La RI en el grupo de BGYR pasó del 79,7% al 11,3% y en GV pasó del 86,5% al 23%. Conclusiones: La cirugía bariátrica es una herramienta eficaz para disminuir la RI, siendo este efecto mayor en la BGYR.
