PERANCANGAN SISTEM INFORMASI BERBASIS E-BANKING
Authors: Pratama Muhammad Aldi
Published: November 2021

PERANCANGAN SISTEM INFORMASI PEMBAYARAN ONLINE MENGGUNAKAN PAYMENT GATEWAYSeiring dengan semakin meluasnya penggunaan Internet, penggunaan untuk bisnis juga semakin meningkat, yaitu salah satunya untuk melakukan transaksi secara elektronik. Transaksi elektronik menguntungkan karena dapat mengurangi biaya transaksi bisnis dan dapat memperbaiki kualitas pelayanan kepada pelanggan. Walaupun demikian, sistem transaksi elektronik yang rapuh mudah sekali disalahgunakan oleh pihak – pihak yang tidak bertanggung jawab. Seperti layaknya sebuah transaksi dagang, transaksi elektronik melibatkan dua pihak. Informasi – informasi yang melibatkan transaksi elektronik, termasuk jumlah potongan yang harus dilakukan akun bank tertentu dan penambahan nilai uang pada akun yang lain telah menjadi sangat penting, sehingga dengan demikian menarik serangan – serangan, baik untuk mencuri informasi tersebut atau bahkan memodifikasinya, dalam melakukan transaksi elektronik yaitu Secure Socket Layer (SSL). Secure Socket Layer atau biasa disingkat SSL untuk komunikasi melalui Internet, yang artinya SSL berisi aturan untuk menjamin komunikasi yang terjadi aman. Jadi sebelum melakukan transaksi, protokol SSL harus dijamin terlebih dahulu. Maksudnya adalah pesan yang berfungsi sebagai tanda awal dimulainya saluran komunikasi yang aman, karena isi pesan untuk sesi komunikasi dan pesan ini merangkum dan mengirimkan seluruh hasil kesepakatan atas isi dari pesan SSL yang dipertukarkan sebelumnya dan nilai khusus yang menandakan pengirim pesan ini (client atau server). Layanan Payment Gateway telah menjadi terkenal di dunia online. Payment Gateway memberikan keuntungan lebih kepada customer yang bergantung kepada Internet untuk membeli produk – produk yang diinginkan, sehingga memerlukan transaksi uang secara online.Payment Gateway berguna untuk mendeskripsikan informasi pembayaran dan membandingkan nilai hash yang dikirimkan penjual. Apabila terjadi kecocokan, maka Payment Gateway yakin pembeli dan penjual telah sepakat mengenai pembelian yang dilakukan. Tugas Payment Gateway yang lain adalah melakukan pengesahan transaksi sesuai dengan kebijakan yang dimiliki oleh issuer kartu kredit. Yang menjadi pokok permasalahan, masih banyak orang terutama customer dan merchant masih tidak mengerti bagaimana sebenarnya cara kerja sistem transaksi online di internet. Pada hal bila ditinjau dari waktu sangat membantu Customer, dalam hal proses pembayaran online menggunakan payment gateway,dan manfaatnya supaya customer, merchant ataupun user lain bias mengerti tentang kinerja online yang aman.

Authors: Rahayu Ni Putu Utami
Published: November 2021

Latar belakang dan tujuan: Kecacatan akibat penyakit stroke mengakibatkan pasien tidak mampu melakukan aktivitas sehari-hari yang berpengaruh pada kemandirian perawatan dirinya sendiri (self care) dan kualitas hidup pasien pasca stroke. Menanggapi permasalahan tersebut, beberapa rumah sakit dan klinik telah mencanangkan program perawatan di rumah (home care), namun penggunaan layanan ini masih sedikit dari jumlah pasien stroke yang rawat inap. Tujuan penelitian yaitu untuk mengetahui hubungan antara pelayanan home care dengan kemandirian self care dan kualitas hidup pasien pasca stroke Metode: Penelitian ini menggunakan desain cross sectional yang dilaksanakan pada bulan Maret-Mei 2018. Populasi terjangkau dari penelitian ini didapatkan dari data rumah sakit dan klinik yang pernah merawat pasien pasca stroke. Sebanyak 106 responden terpilih dengan menggunakan teknik simple random sampling berdasarkan kriteria eligibilitas yang telah ditentukan.Metode pengumpulan data yaitu dengan wawancara menggunakan kuesioner. Analisis data menggunakan uji chi-square untuk analisis bivariat dan regresi logistik biner untuk analisis multivariat.Hasil: Penelitian ini menunjukkan ada hubungan antara pelayanan home care dengan kemandirian self care ((AOR=0,142; 95% CI: 0,049- 0,410; p<0.001), dan ada hubungan antara layanan home care dengan kualitas hidup pasien pasca stroke (AOR=7,949; 95% CI: 3,009-20,996; p<0,001).Simpulan: Penelitian ini membuktikan bahwa terdapat hubungan antara pelayanan home care dengan kemandirian self care dan kualitas hidup pasien pasca stroke.
Zakat dan Pajak Dalam Perspektif Hukum Islam
Authors: HR. Musfirah
Published: November 2021

Zakat merupakan hak Allah yang dikeluarkan oleh setiap muslim kepada fakir miskin dengan mengharapkan keberkahan, mensucikan jiwa, mengembangkannya dengan berbagai macam kebaikan dan keberkahan. Sementara pajak merupakan pendapatan utama suatu negara yang dibebankan pada setiap warga negara. Pada dasarnya zakat dan pajak memiliki sasaran yang berbeda. Namun tujuan keduanya adalah sama dan wajib ditunaikan berdasarkan UU No.23 Tahun 2011 dan UU No.28 Tahun 2007. Sebagai seorang muslim kita diwajibkan untuk mengeluarkan zakat ketika terpenuhi haul dan nishabnya. Dan sebagai warga negara yang baik kita juga diwajibkan untuk membayar pajak sesuai ketentuan negara. Sebagian besar orang kadang kala beranggapan bahwa zakat tidak lagi wajib dibayarkan ketika pajak telah dibayar. Namun hal itu menjadikan harta seorang muslim tidak suci, sebab salah satu tujuan dikeluarkannya zakat adalah untuk mensucikan harta.
Zakat dan Pembagiannya
Authors: Jumaria

Abstrak: Zakat merupakan ibadah dan merupakan kewajiban bidang harta dan benda dalam rangka mencapai kesejahteraan ekonomi dan mewujudkan keadilan sosial.zakat adalah sarana atau pengikat yang kuat dalam mengingkat hubungan vertical manusia dengan tuhan dan hubangan horizontal antara sesama manusia,khususnya antara yang berada dan tidak punya,dan saling memberi keuntungan batin(moril) dan fisik (material),baik dari pihak(mustahik) maupun dari pihak pemberi(muzaki).sedangakan pembagian zakat wajib dikeluarkan kepada delapan kelompok manusia, baik itu zakat fitrah maupun zakat mal, berdasarkan QS At-Taubah Ayat: 60 Apabila yang membagikan zakat itu adalah Imam, dia harus membaginya menjadi delapan bagian. Yang pertama kali mengambil bagian itu seharusnya adalah panitia zakat, karena dia mengambilnya sebagai ganti atas jerih- payah yang dikeluarkannya untuk memungut zakat. Adapun kelompok-kelompok yang lain mengambil zakat atas dasar kesamaan hak di antara mereka. Dan jika yang membagikan zakat itu adalah pemilik harta itu sendiri atau orang yang mewakilinya, gugurlah hak panitia zakat itu,kemudian dibagikan kepada tujuh kelompok yang tersisa jika semua kelompok itu masih ada. Jika tidak, zakat itu hanya dibagikan kepada kelompok yang ada saja.

Demokrasi
Authors: SETYAWAN RISDO CATUR
Published: November 2021

Istilah "demokrasi" berasal dari Yunani Kuno yang diutarakan di Athena kuno pada abad ke-5 SM. Negara tersebut biasanya dianggap sebagai contoh awal dari sebuah sistem yang berhubungan dengan hukum demokrasi modern. Namun, arti dari istilah ini telah berubah sejalan dengan waktu, dan definisi modern telah berevolusi sejak abad ke-18, bersamaan dengan perkembangan sistem "demokrasi" di banyak negara.Kata "demokrasi" berasal dari dua kata, yaitu demos yang berarti rakyat, dan kratos/cratein yang berarti pemerintahan, sehingga dapat diartikan sebagai pemerintahan rakyat, atau yang lebih kita kenal sebagai pemerintahan dari rakyat, oleh rakyat dan untuk rakyat. Konsep demokrasi menjadi sebuah kata kunci tersendiri dalam bidang ilmu politik. Hal ini menjadi wajar, sebab demokrasi saat ini disebut-sebut sebagai indikator perkembangan politik suatu negara.Menurut Wikipedia Indonesia, demokrasi adalah bentuk atau mekanisme sistem pemerintahan suatu negara sebagai upaya mewujudkan kedaulatan rakyat (kekuasaan warga negara) atas negara untuk dijalankan oleh pemerintah negara tersebut.Demokrasi yang dianut di Indonesia, yaitu demokrasi berdasarkan Pancasila, masih dalam taraf perkembangan dan mengenai sifat-sifat dan ciri- cirinya terdapat berbagai tafsiran serta pandangan. Tetapi yang tidak dapat disangkal ialah bahwa beberapa nilai pokok dari demokrasi konstitusionil cukup jelas tersirat di dalam Undang Undang Dasar 1945. Selain dari itu Undang-Undang Dasar kita menyebut secara eksplisit 2 prinsip yang menjiwai naskah itu dan yang dicantumkan dalam penjelasan mengenai Sistem Pemerintahan Negara, yaitu:1.Indonesia ialah negara yang berdasarkan atas hukum (Rechstaat).Negara Indonesia berdasarkan atas hukum (Rechstaat), tidak berdasarkan kekuasaan belaka (Machstaat).2.Sistem KonstitusionilPemerintahan berdasarkan atas Sistem Konstitusi (Hukum Dasar), tidak bersifat Absolutisme (kekuasaan yang tidak terbatas). Berdasarkan 2 istilah Rechstaat dan sistem konstitusi, maka jelaslah bahwa demokrasi yang menjadi dasar dari Undang-Undang Dasar 1945, ialah demokrasi konstitusionil. Di samping itu corak khas demokrasi Indonesia, yaitu kerakyatan yang dipimpin oleh hikmat kebijaksanaan dalam permusyawaratan perwakilana, dimuat dalam Pembukaan Undang-Undang Dasar.

Elastoplastic constitutive behavior and strain localization of a low-porosity sandstone during brittle fracturing
Authors: Zhang Shihuai , Guo Pei , Wu Shunchuan
Published: November 2021

We investigated the elastoplastic behavior and strain localization of the Zigong sandstone (porosity: 6.5%) during brittle fracturing based on two series of axisymmetric compression experiments. The experiments were conducted under various confining pressures (σ3 = 0 ~ 80 MPa). For each confining pressure, the sandstone specimens were deformed under constant axial and circumferential strain rates, respectively. When σ3 < 60 MPa, the sandstone first undergoes stable deformation in the post-peak stage and then loses its stability. Before the emergence of instability, the mechanical behavior is hardly affected by the controlling method. When the confining is larger, the sandstone manifests a stable failure process during the whole loading stage. The observed elastoplastic behavior was described by a two-yield surface constitutive model established in the framework of generalized plastic mechanics. The proposed constitutive model incorporates two quadratic yield functions, as well as two linearly independent plastic potential functions, to honor the shear yield and volumetric dilatancy, respectively. Via the return mapping algorithm, the proposed constitutive model was verified by comparing the numerical results with experimental results. In addition, the two-yield surface constitutive model, which is equivalent to the model proposed by Rudnicki and Rice,1 was applied to localization analysis. Assuming that the onset of localization occurs at peak stress, frictional coefficient μ and dilatancy factor β were determined from experimental data. The variations of both plastic parameters predict the transition of localization mode from pure dilation bands under uniaxial compression to pure shear bands at high confining pressures, which is consistent with the experimental observations.
Correction Format has a Limited Role when Debunking Misinformation
Authors: Swire-Thompson Briony , Cook John , Butler Lucy , Sanderson Jasmyne , Lewandowsky Stephan , Ecker Ullrich K. H.
Published: November 2021

Given that being misinformed can have negative ramifications, finding optimal corrective techniques has become a key focus of research. In recent years, several divergent correction formats have been proposed as superior corrective methods based on distinct theoretical frameworks. However, these correction formats have not been compared in controlled settings, so the suggested superiority of each format remains speculative. Across four experiments, the current paper investigated how altering the format of corrections influences peoples’ subsequent reliance on misinformation. We examined whether myth-first, fact-first, fact-only, or myth-only correction formats were most effective, using a range of different materials and participant pools. Experiments 1 and 2 focused on climate change misconceptions; participants were Qualtrics online panel members and students taking part in a massive open online course, respectively. Experiments 3 and 4 used misconceptions from a diverse set of topics, with Amazon Mechanical Turk crowdworkers and university student participants. We found that the impact of a correction on beliefs and inferential reasoning was largely independent of the specific format used. The clearest evidence for any potential relative superiority emerged in Experiment 4, which found that with a delayed retention interval, the myth-first format was more effective at myth correction than the fact-first format. However, in general it appeared that as long as the key ingredients of a correction were presented, format did not appear to make a considerable difference. This suggests that simply providing corrective information, regardless of format, is far more important than how the correction is presented.
Feasibility of an Online Acute Stressor in Preschool Children of Mothers with Depression
Authors: Paton Allyson , Stienwandt Shaelyn , Penner-Goeke Lara , Giuliano Ryan Jeffrey , Roos Leslie E
Published: November 2021

Maternal depression is a risk factor for future mental health problems in offspring, with stress-system function as a candidate vulnerability factor. Here we present initial validation of an online matching-task paradigm in young children exposed to maternal depression (N=40), a first in stressor-paradigm research for this age group. Investigations of stress-system reactivity that can be conducted online are an innovative assessment approach, accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Results indicate high feasibility, with ~80% success across measures, similar-to or better-than in-person success rates in young children. Overall, the online matching task elicited significant HR but not cortisol reactivity. Individual differences in child mental health symptoms were a moderator of reactivity to the stressor such that children with lower, but not higher, behavioural problems exhibited the expected pattern of cortisol reactivity to the online matching task. Results are aligned with allostatic load models, which suggest down-regulation of stress-system reactivity as a result of experiencing adversity and mental health vulnerability. Consistent with in-person research, this suggests an early phenotype for the emergence of behaviour problems may be linked to altered stress-system reactivity. Results hold potential clinical implications for intervention development and the future of online stress-system research.

Badania biograficzne rodzin więźniów. Refleksja metodologiczna

Authors: Cieślikowska-Ryczko Angelika
Published: November 2021

The article deals with the life situation of the families of prisoners, in particular, parental relationships connected with the experience of incarceration in a correctional institution. During the realisation of the research I noticed many difficulties in finding contact with potential interlocutors, therefore I considered the families of prisoners as an environment “invisible in the research field”. In addition, I defined families of prisoners as marginalised and stigmatised environments. The main aim of the article is to show selected methodological dilemmas that can be encountered through the design and analysis of biographical research of family members of prisoners. The theoretical introduction of the paper as an extended definition of the penitentiary crisis allowed to characterise the dominant trends and directions of research on prisoners’ families. Further, it focused on selected problems of realisation of qualitative research (especially biographical research). I analyse the literature and present my own methodological approach based on the direction of interpretative sociology. Using the potential of the autobiographical narrative interview technique (of the German sociological school of Fritz Schütze), I collected 31 interviews with adult children of prisoners and 30 interviews with parents of prisoners. Finally, I refer to my own research experience and discuss the “usefulness and ineffectiveness” of an autobiographical narrative interview. Moreover, I characterise key reflections on the role of the researcher in obtaining autobiographical narrations. The article is an invitation to discuss the improvement of research procedures, especially in the area of research on family members of persons in prisons.

Creativity Has No Expiry Date: Directing Escaped Alone at Western Gold Theatre
Authors: Bracht Kathryn
Published: November 2021

Dans ce texte, Kathryn Bracht offre une réflexion sur l’expérience qu’elle a vécue en signant la mise en scène de la pièce Escaped Alone de Caryl Churchill au Western Gold Theatre de Vancouver, l’une des seules compagnies de théâtre professionnelles du Canada ayant pour mandat d’offrir un soutien aux artistes de théâtre de plus de cinquante-cinq ans. La pièce met en scène quatre femmes d’environ soixante-dix ans, de sorte à offrir un défi pour des interprètes de cette tranche d’âge. Bracht examine comment la compagnie continue d’explorer les moyens de valoriser les artistes d’un âge plus avancé non seulement en leur offrant des rôles, mais aussi en mettant l’accent ailleurs que sur l’apprentissage par cœur du texte et en cherchant à créer un meilleur équilibre entre la vie familiale et celle sur scène pendant les répétitions et les représentations, de manière à répondre aux besoins des interprètes plus âgés.

Analysis of the current state of health care state regulation
Authors: Riabets Dmytro
Published: November 2021

The purpose of the article is to analyse the current state of regional media platforms, identify development problems and justify solutions. Methodology. General scientific methods are used in the research, in particular: theoretical generalization – to determine the main provisions of health care; statistical analysis – to study the dynamics of medical care funding of state structures employees; methods of positive and normative analysis – to develop recommendations for improving the provision of medical services and the state of health care. Results. It was studied that in 2019, among 14,934.9 households, only 8.7% considered their income level sufficient. And 40.2% of households could not afford basic necessities other than food. More than 50% of households said that if incomes increased, they would spend more on treatment. The largest share of households that noted the need for additional treatment costs has an average per capita equivalent cash income per month at the level of 1,920.1–2,640.0 UAH. At the same time, out of the total number of 14,644.5 thousand households, 98.4% noted the need for health services during the year. Statistics show that in 2019, compared to 2018, the number of households that were unable to receive medical care, medicines and medical supplies for family members during the year increased. This trend is observed for both urban and rural residents. As a result, the ecological situation and the human living environment are deteriorating. Threats are created not only for the current population, but also for the lives of future generations. And according to the self-assessment of the health status of the Ukrainian population in 2019, only half of the population (50.4%) marked their condition as good, the rest reported satisfactory (39.5%) and poor (10.1%). Practical meaning. It is revealed that the state of the environment is under threat due to certain prohibitions and restrictions on the control of economic activity in order to ensure favourable conditions for business development which creates an uncontrolled situation of use of natural resources (water, air, land) included in domestic turnover. Prospects for further research. According to the Law of Ukraine “On Basic Principles of State Supervision (Control) in the Field of Economic Activity” it is necessary to warn in advance and clearly define the list of issues and indicators of the economic activity inspection. This distorts the real picture of possible damage to the environment from improper economic activities and unbalanced use of natural resources.
Distribution Dependent and Cluster Regulation of Associations between Body Fatty Acid Percentages, as observed in Chickens
Authors: Høstmark Arne Torbjørn , Haug Anna
Published: November 2021

Body fatty acids are important in health and disease. We previously observed two groups of fatty acids in breast muscle of chickens: Group 1) with relative amounts correlating negatively with %AA (20:4 n6), and Group 2) with relative amounts correlating positively with %AA. Within each of the two groups, we here found positive correlations between fatty acid percentages. Accordingly, Group 1 percentages correlated negatively with those of Group 2. With random numbers in lieu of the true values of Group 2 fatty acids, we were able to reproduce the positive correlations found with true values, if the random numbers were generated with the true ranges. In contrast, with random numbers we did not succeed in reproducing all of the negative correlations between Group 1 and Group 2 fatty acid percentages. We then observed that absolute amounts (g/kg) of fatty acids in Group 1 correlated positively and strongly (r > 0.9), suggesting a coordinated regulation of these fatty acids. Thus, Group 1 fatty acids seemed to be a cluster of fatty acids. Random number cluster percentage showed nice inverse associations with random number Group 2 fatty acid percentages, like the outcome observed with the true values. We suggest that associations between fatty acid percentages are caused by their concentration distributions, and by cluster regulation. Distribution Dependent and Cluster Regulation could be an evolutionary adaptation, where a mathematical rule is utilized to e.g. balance effects of eicosanoids/docosanoids, and possibly other metabolites.
Role of liquid foods and beverages to prevent dehydration especially in elderly people
Authors: Molnár Judit , Pal Mahendra
Published: November 2021

Dehydration is an important health issue and is more commonly observed in older people than younger ones. Dehydration occurs when there is excess fluid loss of fluid from the body, as a result of exposure to high temperatures, sickness, inadequate fluid intake and use of diuretic medicines. The symptoms of dehydration can range from simple dizziness and confusion to seizures and death. Elderly people should avoid coffee, tea, and alcohol in large quantizes, and also must get enough fruits and vegetables in their daily diet. It is imperative that water and healthy drinks should be made easily available to the elderly at all times. In addition to water, fruit and juice, syrups, vegetables, vegetable juice and pottages, tea, milk, and dairy products, plant-based beverages and also soups should be given to the elderly people. It is advised that elderly must consume more fluid during the summer season.

Published: November 2021

Indigenous fermented foods Gundruk (fermented mustard leaves), Sinki (fermented radish taproot), and Maseura (fermented lentils) are mostly sun dried, and thus often deteriorate during the uncontrolled drying process. Herein, cabinet drying was done at 50, 55, and 60°C after fermentation, and the moisture loss was systematically recorded. The data were converted to moisture ratio and fitted to five semi-theoretical drying mathematical models: Modified Henderson and Pabis, Logarithmic, Two-Term, Midilli et al., and Approximate diffusion. All the models were validated using statistical parameters, namely: R2, RMSE, χ2, and SSE. The Midilli et al. model gave excellent fit for all three products, with R2 greater than 0.97. The effective diffusivity values increased with an increase in air temperature for all the samples. The activation energy values were found to be 56.25, 21.63 and 15.08 kJ/ mol while the diffusivity constants were found to be 1268.51, 0.028, and 8.655× 10-3 m2/s for Gundruk, Sinki, and Maseura, respectively.
Complex interaction of adipokines in breast cancer and anti-tumour immunity; a new paradigm for cancer treatment
Authors: H Tan Peng , Xie Mingrui , Sfakianakis Eleftherios
Published: November 2021

Obesity and its related complications have been the pressing disease pandemic affecting the developed world. It is well-established that the direct consequence of obesity in the cardiovascular system resulting in many diseases. However, its implications in carcinogenesis, cancer treatment and one’s anti-tumour immunity are gradually unfolding. To understand how fat cells can affect these, one needs to explore how the fat cell affects epithelial and immune cells. To this end, we explore the way how the adipocytes, via its production of adipokines, influence these cells, resulting in early epithelial cell transformation into cancer cells and influencing anti-tumour immunity once the cancer is established. In order to simplify our discussion, we focus this review on breast cancer. We propose that to have an effective therapy for cancer treatment, we need to intervene at the adipokine interaction with epithelial cells, cancer cells, and immune cells. In this review we also decipher the potential therapeutic targets in controlling carcinogenesis and disease progression.

Purpose: Youth living in the urban slums in Uganda have many unmet needs. The purpose of the current study is to briefly examine the associations between Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and alcohol use patterns, an understudied area among urban vulnerable youth, in order to provide guidance and insight for service provision for youth. Methods: The current data analysis is based on a cross-sectional survey conducted in June 2011 which consisted of a convenience sample of youth living in the slums (ages 14-24) attending a drop-in center, Uganda Youth Development Link (UYDEL). Descriptive statistics were computed. Bivariate and multivariable logistic regression analyses were used to determine psychosocial correlates with being an orphan. Results: Factors associated with alcohol use varied by sex (p<.05) (alcohol use was more common among girls), age (p<.000), (alcohol use more common among youth 18 years of age and older) and alcohol use were also more common among youth who reported the following ACEs; parents hitting each other (p<.000) , parental use of alcohol (p<.000), being hungry (p<.000), having ever lived on the street (p<.000) and having been raped (p<.000). Conclusions: The prevalence of ACEs were high in this study population which is a great concern. Moreover ACEs were associated with earlier age of alcohol use initiation, frequent and heavy drinking underscoring the need for additional support for past childhood trauma as well as alcohol prevention efforts for these vulnerable youth.

Background: Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumonia (K. pneumoniae) has been recently identified as the major class of pathogens and the treatment became the biggest challenge in this bacterium. We assessed the antibiotic resistance patterns of K. pneumoniae, the frequency of resistant strains to imipenem, meropenem, and ertapenem, and the frequency of K. pneumoniae carbapenemases (KPC), and Guiana-Extended-Spectrum (GES) metallo-β-lactamase genes. Methods: The phenotypes of 200 strains of K. pneumonia, collected from 650 clinical samples, were isolating and identified in Qom, Iran. The antibiotic resistance pattern of the strains was analyzed against different antibiotics. The imipenem, meropenem, and ertapenem-resistant strains, were isolated and the frequency of KPC and GES genes were evaluated. Results: K. pneumoniae strains had different resistance patterns against various antibiotics. The isolated strains with the highest and lowest antibiotic resistance were related to ampicillin, and meropenem, respectively. Investigation of the KPC and GES β lactamase showed that none of 48 imipenem, meropenem, and ertapenem-resistance isolates had the KPC gene. In addition, the GES gene was detected in 3(2.7%) of 110 ceftazidime-resistant specimens. Conclusions: Carbapenem is useful in the treatment of K. pneumoniae infections. Due to the importance of the mechanisms of resistance is by β-lactamase genes, investigating the prevalence of β-lactamase genes can help to increase the necessity of choosing the appropriate treatment for K. pneumoniae.

Mammary hamartoma is uncommon typically non-malignant benign breast lesion, comprising varying amounts of fatty, fibrous connective tissue and glandular elements. The co-existence of hamartomas and malignancy is very rare and it has no special propensity to undergo malignant transformation. We present a case report of a 66-year-old patient diagnosed with Inflammatory Breast Carcinoma within a previously diagnosed mammary hamartoma in the right breast. The comprehensive work-up with mammography, ultrasound, Positron Emission Tomography – Computed Tomography (PET-CT) and ultrasound-guided biopsy confirmed invasive ductal carcinoma within the hamartoma. Although malignancy arising within hamartoma is an extremely rare entity, the radiologist should be aware and prudent of the atypical as well as suspicious features within hamartoma during interpretation of imaging modalities and should thoroughly investigate any architectural distortion or microcalcifications within an otherwise typical hamartoma. No case has been reported for inflammatory breast carcinoma in mammary hamartoma as per our best of knowledge.

Recently, emerged outbreaks of various viral infections, including severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), MERS-CoV, and ZIKA infections, are fatal for human life. These life-threatening infections to public health pointed out as a major cause responsible for initiating severe diseases globally. These viral infections heightened the morbidity rates and thus, it is a deadly fear to human life. Researchers left no stone unturned for searching newer therapeutic targets and remedies to treat these viral infections and outbreaks. Simultaneously, some of the researchers have gained success in the discovery of an efficient treatment and development of an effective vaccine [1]. In view of that, numerous developments have been made for innovating nanotherapies, which can treat viral infection and few of them are written off as nanomedicine, have been become reality.

The case of a 60-year-old man illustrates a number of important features of rheumatic heart disease (RHD). The patient’s age of presentation was late (>50 yo) and he had no history of predisposing condition for RHD but served in the South Pacific when he was in the US Navy. RHD was limited to mitral stenosis in this patient and his presentation of heart failure was late. His ECG revealed ample evidence of right ventricular enlargement, and echocardiography demonstrated severe mitral stenosis, enlarged right ventricle and right atrium and marked pulmonary hypertension. Because percutaneous balloon mitral valve commissurotomy was precluded by the degree of mitral valve calcification, he underwent successful surgical valve replacement with relief of symptoms. Although RHD is rarely encountered in North America and Europe, it remains a major cause of mortality in the developing nations.

Co-infections have been widely described in COVID-19 patients. Bacterial infections being the main cause but also have been reported fungal infections in up to 20 % of the cases. Candida species are the second most common fungi identified in pulmonary mycotic infections affecting hospitalized COVID-19 patients after Aspergillus. We present a case of severe COVID-19 associated with pulmonary candidiasis.
Does Marine Lenhart Syndrome really exist?

Primary hyperthyroidism is the result of overproduction of thyroid hormone resulting in the classic symptoms of tachycardia, weight loss, diaphoresis, and hyperdefecation. There are multiple common causes to include Graves’ disease, toxic multinodular goiter, and solitary toxic adenomas. Marine Lenhart Syndrome (MLS) is a rare cause of hyperthyroidism, caused by a coexistence of constitutively active thyroid nodules and Graves’ disease. In the original document of Marine and Lenhart, there is no distinction made between the autoimmune phenomenon of Graves’ disease and the solitary toxic nodule of Plummer’s disease. Rather they are both considered to be the manifestation of the same disease. However, in the current era of radionuclide technology, a clear distinction of MLS can be seen with diffuse uptake in the thyroid gland and focused enhancement in the toxic nodules. Therefore what was previously described as one entity is now distinct as Graves’ disease and Plummer’s disease. It is also becoming increasingly clear within the literature that there is also a new phenomenon of post-radioiodine immunogenic hyperthyroidism in patients with toxic nodules and elevated autoantibodies. Therefore in order to properly treat and manage patients, a new definition of MLS may need to be proposed.

The new coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, which causes the disease COVID-19, has had a serious worldwide impact on human health. The virus was virtually unknown at the beginning of 2020. Since then, intense research efforts have resulted in sequencing the coronavirus genome, identifying the structures of its proteins, and creating a wide range of tools to search for effective vaccines and therapies. Also, there’s a chance that the COVID-19 contraction rate could get higher than the COVID-19 vaccination rate. In other words, the virus continues to spread while very little people actually get vaccinated. This only makes the job of scientists even harder. In order to stop the spread of COVID-19, citizens must get vaccinated more frequently than citizens are contracting COVID-19. The coronavirus attacks and kills healthy cells, causing detrimental damage to the respiratory system and immune system. It was then discovered that COVID-19 can be terribly fatal for those with already fragile immune systems and preexisting health conditions. Back in March, when COVID-19 was clearly becoming a critical threat to many countries around the world, the evidence indicated that the virus spreads from person to person through small respiratory droplets produced when people cough or sneeze, or even breathe. Surfaces can serve as an intermediary for the virus when looking for a host. Instead of contracting the virus directly from a person, it is possible to receive the virus from touching an object that an infected person sneezed on. It has been discovered that the virus can last up to three 3 days on a surface. Proceeding to rub one’s eyes, mouth, or nose after such contact is also a mode of transmission.
