Creación literaria e imaginario colectivo: discusión sobre el concepto de utopía en la realidad latinoamericana
Authors: Merino Trejos Leonardo
Published: July 2018

Este artículo pretende discutir el concepto de utopía que se ata a las formas literarias, para proponer uno que le reivindique -a la luz de la realidad latinoamericana- como un espíritu del imaginario colectivo, que podemos ver expresado en la literatura, tanto como en toda creación y expresión humana. Se intenta revisar el concepto con reglas rígidas del género literario, confrontado a su expresión en América Latina, donde la utopía superó la idea de sitio, de género y de modelo organizativo regulador, mostrándose más bien como una actitud del pensamiento y como un espíritu constante en el imaginario colectivo. Se revisan algunos conceptos claves de utopía, tratando de desvincularla del texto en sí, para ligarla al imaginario que este refleja.

BACKGROUND:

Infants with heterotaxy syndrome (HS) have abnormal lateralization of organs along the right-left body axis. Intestinal rotation abnormalities (IRAs) are a potential source of morbidity and mortality. For this study, our objective was to prospectively observe a cohort of infants with HS and determine the incidence and natural history of IRA.

METHODS:

Infants ≤6 months of age with HS were enrolled in this prospective observational study. Exclusion criteria were other congenital abnormalities that necessitated abdominal surgery. HS was defined as any arrangement of organs that was not situs solitus or situs inversus along with associated congenital heart disease. The investigation for IRA was at the discretion of each participating center.

RESULTS:

Infants were recruited from January 2012 to December 2016. Thirty-eight infants from 7 institutions were included; 22 infants had right isomerism and 16 infants had left isomerism. Twenty-nine infants (76%) were evaluated for IRAs; 21 of 29 evaluations (72%) were abnormal. Eight infants were investigated because of symptoms, and 21 infants were evaluated routinely. The median age at symptom presentation was 46 days (range: 5–171 days). Seven infants had a Ladd procedure; 4 were prophylactic, with 3 as part of a combined procedure, and 3 were emergent. No child suffered acute midgut volvulus over a median follow-up of 1.6 years (range: 0.06–4.93 years).

CONCLUSIONS:

IRAs are common in infants with HS. Infants with symptoms presented by 6 months of age. There was no failure of expectant management resulting in midgut volvulus during a median follow-up of 1.6 years.
Comparison between Numerical and Analytical Analysis of the Dynamic Behavior of Circular Tunnels
Authors: Lu Qingrui , Chen Shijun , Chang Yi , He Chunfeng
Published: July 2018

Dynamic behavior of underground structures is controlled by the strain field imposed by wave propagation and by the interaction between rock mass and structures. Shear and pressure waves propagating in the plane of the cross-section of the tunnel generate ground distortions, which tend to cause ovaling deformations of the lining. In this paper, the seismic response of a circular tunnel subjected respectively to shear waves and pressure waves will be analyzed both analytically and numerically at first, and then a complete 3D analysis will be given to show the overall effects on a tunnel induced by seismic events considering seismic inputs in three directions.

Published: July 2018

The reservoir structural fractures have excellent fractal characteristics, as well as self-similarities. Based on the fractal theory, the surface fractal characteristics of faults and the fractal characteristic of fractures in the core of the Xujiahe Formation in the Fault-Fold Belt of the central Yuanba area were studied, and a quantitative relationship was set up between them. Based on the fractal characteristics of faults, predictions were made of the favorable fracture zone, which provides a new idea for the research of fracture, as well as offers theoretical references for exploring the fracture development zone during oil-gas exploration. The results show the following: the seismic value of reflection fault fractal dimension of the Xujiahe Formation is 1.5284; the correlation coefficient R2 is bigger than 0.9901; the capacity dimension linear regression correlation coefficient of the fracture in core of the Xujiahe Formation is bigger than 0.98; the fractal dimension D can well reflect the fault and fracture development degree, as well as the complexity of the fracture system; it can quantitatively calculate the density of the fracture of the reservoir in the area; the areas of capacity dimension bigger than 1.45 are the fracture development zones in the Fault-Fold Belt of the central Yuanba area; the oil and gas enrichment degree is high; the areas with the fractal dimension value between 0.95 and 1.45 are the fracture relatively-developed zones; the fractal dimension with values smaller than 0.95 are the lack of fracture areas.
"I Have a Kind of Power I Never Knew I Possessed": Surveillance, Agency, and the Possibility of Resistance in YA Dystopian Fiction
Authors: Connors Sean P.
Published: July 2018

Drawing on Foucault’s examination of the gaze as a disciplinary mechanism, and de Certeau’s discussion of how people use tactics to resist oppressive power systems, this article advocates reading the gaze in young adult dystopian fiction. To illustrate the complex readings that doing so makes possible, the author examines three young adult dystopias—M. T. Anderson’s Feed, Suzanne Collins’s Hunger Games trilogy, and Corey Doctorow’s Little Brother—to demonstrate how they depict adolescents as having varying degrees of agency to resist the gaze. To conclude, the author discusses the implications for teachers and students of reading the gaze in young adult literature.
Seismic behaviour of ashlar stone masonry walls with enhanced mortar joints

Published: July 2018

Stone masonry walls may be constructed using different types of stonework. This paper investigates the effectiveness of a technique that strengthens traditional ashlar stone masonry by embedding polymer mortar and steel bars in bed joints. The seismic behaviour of stone masonry walls with enhanced mortar joints is experimentally evaluated. Seven single-bay, single-storey wall specimens were fabricated and tested under different combinations of constant vertical loads and reversed cyclic lateral loads. One specimen was constructed using a traditional construction method; the other six specimens were constructed similarly, but their joints were strengthened with a combination of embedded polymer-based mortar and steel reinforcing bars. The influence of applied normal stress and strengthening method on the failure mode, lateral resistance, strength degradation, stiffness degradation, energy dissipation and ductility was investigated. The experimental results show that strengthening the joints effectively enhances the lateral load-carrying capacity and integrity of stone masonry walls. As expected, an increase in vertical load increased both the lateral strength and pre-peak stiffness of the tested specimens, but decreased the ductility. Within the limitation of the present tests, the failure mechanisms of the stone masonry walls were dominated by either diagonal stepped cracks or slip-shear cracks, depending on the specific strengthening method.

Background

Providing the correct diagnosis for patients with tubulointerstitial kidney disease and secondary degenerative disorders, such as hypertension, remains a challenge. The autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease (ADTKD) subtype caused by MUC1 mutations (ADTKD-MUC1) is particularly difficult to diagnose, because the mutational hotspot is a complex repeat domain, inaccessible with routine sequencing techniques. Here, we further evaluated SNaPshot minisequencing as a technique for diagnosing ADTKD-MUC1 and assessed immunodetection of the disease-associated mucin 1 frameshift protein (MUC1-fs) as a nongenetic technique.

Methods

We re-evaluated detection of MUC1 mutations by targeted repeat enrichment and SNaPshot minisequencing by haplotype reconstruction via microsatellite analysis in three independent ADTKD-MUC1 families. Additionally, we generated rabbit polyclonal antibodies against MUC1-fs and evaluated immunodetection of wild-type and mutated allele products in human kidney biopsy specimens.

Results

The detection of MUC1 mutations by SNaPshot minisequencing was robust. Immunostaining with our MUC1-fs antibodies and an MUC1 antibody showed that both proteins are readily detectable in human ADTKD-MUC1 kidneys, with mucin 1 localized to the apical membrane and MUC1-fs abundantly distributed throughout the cytoplasm. Notably, immunohistochemical analysis of MUC1-fs expression in clinical kidney samples facilitated reliable prediction of the disease status of individual patients.

Conclusions

Diagnosing ADTKD-MUC1 by molecular genetics is possible, but it is technically demanding and labor intensive. However, immunohistochemistry on kidney biopsy specimens is feasible for nongenetic diagnosis of ADTKD-MUC1 and therefore, a valid method to select families for further diagnostics. Our data are compatible with the hypothesis that specific molecular effects of MUC1-fs underlie the pathogenesis of this disease.

Published: July 2018

The investigating results are given on the cordierite ceramic porous materials development. The wood waste and the crystalline carbamide were used as the pore-formers. The pore structure analysis showed that all samples had complex pore space composed of numerous elongated connected pores. The best pore formation factors were achieved when using the organic crystalline pore-former. It was demonstrated that nanodispersive metal alumina acted as the strengthening agent in course of the porous ceramics sintering. The organic clay suspension improves the cordierite powder's agglomeration capacity and gives rise to additional nano- and micro-pores.

Published: July 2018

Background: Pulmonary edema is defined as the as the ultrafiltration of plasma through the capillary wall to the interstitium and pulmonary alveoli. It is a rare pathology and difficult diagnosis. Through this study, we wanted to know the etiologies and maternofetal issue of acute pulmonary edema manifesting in prepartum. It is a rare pathology and difficult diagnosis. Through this study, we wanted to know the causes and maternofetal issue of acute pulmonary edema manifested in prepartum.Methods: It is about a descriptive retrospective study from January 1st, 2014 to April 30th, 2018 at the Befelatanana University Hospital of Obstetrics and Gynecology. We included all pregnant patients of 20 weeks and above with acute antepartum pulmonary edema. We excluded postpartum APE. Data collection and analysis was performed on the Excel Stat 2007 Software.Results: We had 36 cases of acute pulmonary edema during this period with an incidence of 0.001%. The average age was 28.75±8.72 years. Mean gestational age was 32 ± 7.82SA. Pregnancy was poorly followed in more than half of the cases. 15% did not perform prenatal follow-up. Caesarean section was the chosen delivery route in 82% of cases. Among the childbirth, 73% were premature, 63% asphyxiated and 56% hypotrophic. We had 52% of maternal death and 44, 44% of fetal loss. The main etiology was dominated by preeclampsia and its complications (63.88%) followed by cardiopathy (25%). A case of malaria during pregnancy was identified as the cause of APE.Conclusions: Acute pulmonary edema during pregnancy is a serious pathology because the maternal prognosis is catastrophic with 50% maternal and foetal mortality in our context. The identification of patients at risk, the monitoring of pregnancy, the effective management of the pathology involved are necessary to reduce the incidence and maternal mortality secondary to pulmonary edema.

Authors: Pushpagiri Niroopama , Nagalingam Saranya
Published: July 2018

Background: Preoperative discrimination between benign and malignant ovarian neoplasm is necessary to optimally plan for an appropriate surgical treatment. Women with malignant ovarian tumours should be referred to a gynaecologic oncologist for the quality of cytoreductive surgery leading to increased survival. The aim of this study is to determine the role of Risk of Malignancy Index (RMI) incorporating menopausal status, serum CA 125 levels and ultrasound features in discriminating benign from malignant ovarian neoplasms.Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted for 2 years among 110 women with ovarian neoplasms referred to Narayana Medical College and Hospital, Nellore a tertiary care centre for diagnosis and management. The sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values of menopausal status, ultrasound finding of ovarian neoplasms, levels of serum CA-125 separately and combined into the RMI were calculated and compared. (RMI = U X M X Serum CA- 125). Women of all ages admitted with ovarian masses in Narayana Medical College, Nellore. Women whose histopathology report turned out to be non-neoplastic ovarian tumours or other adnexal masses.Results: RMI >250 had a sensitivity of 70.8 % (95%CI 54.4-87.2), a specificity of 87% (95%CI 76.5-97.7), a positive predictive value of 81 % and negative predictive value of 79.4% for the diagnosis of malignant neoplasms.Conclusions: The risk of malignancy index is a simple scoring system and easily applicable and effective method for evaluating a patient in discriminating benign and malignant ovarian neoplasms efficiently to optimize therapy. It facilitates timely referral to gynecological oncology unit for adequate staging and optimal debulking.

Background: The objective of this study is to find out the incidence and foetomaternal outcome of Rh negative women during pregnancy.Methods: In the study group, the labor was monitored carefully and the mode of delivery and the outcome of labor was studied in detail. Baby was thoroughly examined for any obvious congenital anomaly, weight, sex and condition was also noted particularly for hydrops. If neonate was Rh positive, then the mother was given postpartum immunoprophylaxis within 24 hours of delivery. The new born were followed for 3 days and were watched for the development of Jaundice. Mothers were advised to attend postnatal clinic for check-up after 6 weeks of delivery.Results: Blood group distribution of newborn: 37 were Rh positive and 18 were Rh negative. Raised Rh antibody titre was not found in any of the 55 cases. Maximum cases 47 delivered at 38-40 weeks, 2 cases delivered after 40 weeks and 6 patients delivered between 30-38 weeks. Maximum cases 37 delivered normally, 12 required cesarean section and 2 had forceps delivery. The babies who developed NNHB were managed either by sunrays exposure only or by phototherapy. The babies who had anemia immediately after birth were carefully monitored and considered for exchange transfusion.Conclusions: Tremendous advances in the medical services and technology during the last few decades have revolutionized the treatment of Rh disease. Various studies have been conducted and several are going on the in this field to achieve zero incidence of this disease.

Background: Post cesarean pregnancies are high risk pregnancy and main concern is uterine scar rupture with increasing maternal and perinatal risks, for vaginal birth after cesarean delivery (VBAC). Objective of this study is to know neonatal and maternal outcome at term who attempt vaginal delivery with previous one cesarean section presenting in active stage of labor.Methods: A total of 277 pregnant women with single live fetus at term, cephalic presentation with previous one cesarean section, underwent a trial of labor and outcome of successful and failed vaginal birth were noted.Results: Trial of labor was successful in 52.3% and failed in 47.7% (p=0.269). VBAC was successful where the previous cesarean section indications were fetal distress (79% versus 21%, p=0.000), pregnancy induced hypertension (77.3% versus 22.7%, p=0.000) and fetal growth restriction (81.8% versus 18.2%, p=0.000), when compared with failed trial of labor who required emergency cesarean section in pre-labor rupture of the membranes (8.3% versus 91.7%, p=0.000) and dystocia (3.3% versus 96.7%, p=0.000). VBAC was successful at gestational age of 37 0/7-38 6/7 weeks (p=0.000). In the failed VBAC women who required emergency cesarean section there was significant early neonatal death (p=0.025). Scar dehiscence and hospital stay with or without complications were more in the failed VBAC group.Conclusions: Early neonatal death and duration of hospital stay were significantly more in the failed VBAC, who were posted for emergency cesarean delivery. Scar dehiscence occurred in the failed VBAC group. Women presenting at 37 0/7 to 38 6/7 weeks of gestation with cephalic presentation in active stage of labor who had previous cesarean section done for fetal distress, pregnancy induced hypertension and fetal growth restriction with inter pregnancy interval of > 24 months can be planned and counselled for VBAC trial of labor.

Background: Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) is defined as carbohydrate intolerance with recognition or onset during pregnancy is associated with a higher rate of maternal and fetal compromise. OGTT is the current gold standard for screening for GDM. It is a two-step test which requires the pregnant woman to be in a fasting state for a long duration. DIPSI is a one-step procedure for diagnosing GDM does not require patients in a fasting state and is a simple, economical and feasible alternate in Indian scenario. The aim of this study is to compare DIPSI criteria-based test with conventional OGTT for diagnosis of GDM.Methods: A hospital-based screening study was conducted at Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, K J Somaiya Medical College and hospital, Mumbai for duration of May 2015 to June 2016. A total of 200 consecutive pregnant women in the second and third trimester of pregnancy registered at our antenatal clinic and satisfying the eligibility criteria were taken in the study after informed consent. Pregnant women with 2-h PG ≥ 7.8 mmol/L (DIPSI criterion) were diagnosed as GDM and rest were classified as normal glucose tolerant (NGT) women. One week later all of them were made to undergo the conventional 75 gm OGTT. Data was analyzed using statistical software SPSS ver. 21.Results: The sensitivity and specificity of DIPSI was 86.8% and 98.8% with PPV and NPV of 94.3% and 97.0% and overall diagnostic accuracy was 96.5%.Conclusions: The results of present study show that DIPSI is a simple, single, convenient, economical screening test for GDM and can be used as both diagnostic as well as screening test with good diagnostic efficacy.
Fetal haemoglobin and alpha 1 microglobulin as biochemical markers in predicting preeclampsia in late first trimester and early second trimester of pregnancy
Authors: Vijaya S. , Mahalakshmi M. , Inbapriyanka I.
Published: July 2018

Background: Preeclampsia is a multi system disorder with placenta as the organ of origin and maternal endothelium being the organ of target.  According to recent studies, the cell free haemoglobin induces oxidative stress mediated damage to the blood placenta barrier with consequently elevated levels of HbF in maternal blood. Alpha 1 microglobulin is an endogenous protein with antioxidant property, present in elevated levels in maternal blood in response to oxidative stress. This fact forms the basis for our study. The objective of the present study was to establish association between high levels of fetal hemoglobin and alpha 1 microglobulin in plasma of pregnant women between 10 to 16 weeks of gestational age and subsequent development of preeclampsia.Methods: This was a prospective cohort study undertaken in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, ISO -KGH, between December 2016 to November 2017. A total of 100 pregnant women were included in the study after getting informed written consent. Both primigravida and multigravida, belonging to age group of 20 to 35 years (singleton/ multiple) between 10 to 16 weeks GA and with BMI between 16 to 35 kg/m2 were included in the study. A woman with Diabetes mellitus, Hypertension, Renal disease, Epilepsy and Vascular disorders were excluded from the study.Results: The cut off value for alpha 1 microglobulin was 1.86ng/ml and the cut off value of fetal haemoglobin was 1.92ng/ml above which the pregnant women develop preeclampsia.Conclusions: Higher values of fetal hemoglobin and alpha 1 microglobulin in pregnant women between 10 to 16 weeks gestational age positively correlates with development of preeclampsia in those women.
Randomized control trial to compare the effectiveness of mifepristone followed by misoprostol at 12 hours interval versus misoprostol alone in second trimester medical termination of pregnancy
Authors: Bedi Preet Kamal , Saini Arunima
Published: July 2018

Background: Mifepristone priming in second trimester abortions not only decreases the induction-abortion interval (IAI) but also lessens the total misoprostol dose required and hence reduces adverse effects. The present study aims to compare the role of mifepristone priming 12 hours before misoprostol administration so as to increase patient compliance and shorten the duration of hospital stay.Methods: This prospective study was conducted over a period of one year, on 50 patients requiring second trimester abortion, at Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Government Medical College, Amritsar. The patients were divided into two groups with 1:1 randomization. In Group A, 25 women were given tablet mifepristone 200 mg orally followed 12 hours later by tablet misoprostol 400 µg per vaginum followed by the same dose 3 hourly for a maximum of five doses per 24 hours. In group B, 25 women received only tablet misoprostol 400 µg vaginally in the posterior fornix followed by the same dose 3 hourly for a maximum of five doses per 24 hours. Primary outcome was to compare the completeness of expulsion of products of conception by pelvic ultrasound after 48 hours of the last dose administered. Secondary outcome was to compare the Induction abortion interval (IAI), mean dose of misoprostol required, side effects, effect of parity, gestational age and cervical dilatation on IAI with both the regimens used.Results: The success rate was 76% in group A and 64% in group B. The mean induction abortion interval in group A was 8.9±4.70 hours whereas in group B, it was 13.14±6.03 hours and this difference was statistically significant (p = 0.008). A statistically significant difference was also observed in mean dose of misoprostol required in group A and B being 1232.00±398.60 µg and 1584.00±423.94 µg respectively (p=0.004). The side effects were less in group A. Parity and cervical dilatation hold an inverse relation with the mean IAI whereas it has a direct relation with the gestational age.Conclusions: Regimen involving mifepristone priming 12 hours before misoprostol is better than misoprostol alone regimen with significant reduction in IAI, mean dose of misoprostol and less side effects.

Background: Ovarian pregnancy is uncommon form of ectopic pregnancy with increasing trend in its incidence. Various risk factors have been implicated like intrauterine contraceptive devices, fertility treatments, pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), and endometriosis.Methods: This is a retrospective observational study done over a period of 10 years from January 2008 to December 2017.All the patients, who were diagnosed as primary ovarian pregnancy based on Spielberg’s criteria, were included in the study.Results: There were 6 cases (6.3%) of primary ovarian pregnancy out of the 95 cases of ectopic pregnancies.  The age of the patients ranged from 28 years to 43 years with a mean age of 31.8 years. Amenorrhea and acute pain abdomen was present in all the patients. Laparotomy was done in all the cases. Excision of the sac with partial ovariectomy was done in 2 cases (33.3%).Oophorectomy with salpingectomy was done in the rest of the 4 cases (66.7%). Histopathological confirmation was done in all the cases.Conclusions: Ovarian pregnancy is uncommon form of ectopic pregnancy with increasing trend in its incidence. Management of choice is laparoscopy. Laparotomy is done if there are signs of rupture.

Background: Availability of safe, effective and acceptable abortion-care services is one of the most important aspects of women’s reproductive health. Unsafe abortion is one of the four main causes of maternal mortality and morbidity. To study knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) regarding abortion and methods used among/for women of child bearing age to formulate recommendation for improving the safe abortion servicesMethods: This prospective study was done among 100 cases who came for MTP at department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, RNT medical college, Udaipur during November and December 2017. Data was collected using a self-semi structured questionnaire related to abortion technology.Results: 58% of women knew that there were provisions for abortion in public hospitals but only 38% of them knew that abortion should be performed/carried out by a trained doctor only. 70% of the women knew that there were medicines available for abortion (MMA) but only 20% of them knew how and from where to avail them. 69% knew about other methods and that D and E can be done in hospitals both at private and public sector, 25% knew the complications related to unsafe abortion. About the attitude almost all women wanted abortion should be done if needed only 10% knew that abortion is legal. 66% of women consider MMA to be safe and 27% of women consider contraception is necessary.Conclusions: Majority of women have positive attitude towards the abortion. The most prefer method chosen for abortion was medical method of abortion (MMA).
