Breast self-examination: assessing its knowledge attitude and practice among ethnic Kashmiri females
Authors: Sideeq Kouser , Ayoub Taha , Sailm Khan S. M.
Published: August 2017

Background: Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women worldwide but is the second commonest cancer in Kashmir women. The most easy and cost effective way of early detection of breast cancer is through breast self-examination (BSE) the utility of which can  help to make early  interventions and thus better prognosis. The objectives of the study were to assess the knowledge and practice about breast self-examination among ethnic Kashmiri females.Methods: A cross sectional descriptive study was done among ethnic Kashmiri women. A sample 250 women in the age group of 20 to 60 years was selected from SMHS hospital. A predesigned semi-structured study instrument was used to collect the data through interview method. Results: The results showed that only 26% of the participants had ever heard of breast cancer and among them for 50.8% the source of information was media. Regarding knowledge of breast self-examination 92.4 % had never heard of it. Only 5.6% participants had self-examined their breast. Conclusions: The study points to the insufficient knowledge of Kashmiri females about breast cancer and its simplest screening method of self-examination.

Published: August 2017

Background: Viral hepatitis is a serious public health problem affecting billions of people globally. The Hepatitis B virus (HBV) and Hepatitis C virus (HCV) are blood borne pathogens, frequently causing deaths among general and various high risk populations. This study was carried out with the aim to determine the seroprevalence of HBV and HCV in people who inject drugs (PWID) and other risk groups. Methods: A cross-sectional study carried out in the Dept. of Microbiology, RIMS, Imphal from October 2014 to September 2016. 103 high risk individuals, including PWID, spouse of high risk people, unprotected sex with female sex worker (FSW), multiple partners (MP), men having sex with men (MSM) and needle prick injuries were included in this study. Serum samples were tested using Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results: Out of 103 cases, 87.4% were males and 12.6% females. PWID comprised of 49.5%. Seroprevalence of HBV was 17.4%, anti HBc IgG 16.5% and anti HBc IgM 0.9%. Seroprevalence of HCV was 41.7%, anti HCV IgG 39.8% and anti HCV IgM 1.9%. The rate of HBV and HCV coinfection was 9.7%. Among the PWID seroprevalence of HBV and HCV was 17.6% and 64.7% respectively. Conclusions: This study determines the current status of acute and chronic infection with HBV and HCV in high risk populations. Anti HBc IgG & IgM and anti HCV IgG and IgM are sensitive epidemiological markers to determine the burden of the disease.

Authors: Hazarika Lima , Phukan Pranay , Sharma Anand , Das Nabajit Kr.
Published: August 2017

Background: Maternal mortality is a measure of quality of health care in a community. Assam has the highest maternal mortality rate among all India’s states, which is almost double the national average, with around 328 deaths per 100 000 live births. Three quarters of these deaths are among the tea plantations community. It has serious implications on the family, the society and the nation. Maternal mortality rate (MMR) is a very sensitive index that reflects the quality of reproductive care provided to the pregnant women. The objective of the study was to assess the Institutional maternal mortality and the causes of maternal death over a period of a year at a Tertiary Care Teaching Hospital in Dibrugarh district, Assam.Methods: A retrospective hospital based study of maternal death cases from September 2015 to August 2016 was conducted to assess the maternal mortality. The study was carried out in the Obstetrics and Gynaecology Department of Assam Medical College and Hospital (AMCH), Assam. The study included 48 maternal deaths in the year. The information regarding reproductive parameters was collected from the maternal death register and the results were analyzed by using percentage.Results: Out of 9789 total deliveries, Institutional Maternal Mortality was found to be 490 per 1, 00,000 live births. The maternal death was high among the Tea Garden community (66.7%) at the age group 15–20 years and was prevalent mainly in the illiterates (31.3%). Anaemia (29.1%) was the leading cause of death; followed eclampsia (23.0%) and septicaemia (17.0%) while cardio respiratory failure was indirect leading cause for maternal deaths.Conclusions: There is a wide scope for improvement as a large proportion of the observed deaths were preventable. Most maternal deaths can be limited by utilisation of existing medical facilities and identifying the barriers in accessing health delivery system. Early identification of high risk pregnancies and regular ante-natal check up with timely referral to tertiary care centre can help reduce the mortality among the women.

Consumo digital como performance sociotécnica: Análise dos usos da plataforma de streaming de games Twitch
Authors: Montardo Sandra , Fragoso Suely , Amaro Mariana , Paz Samyr
Published: August 2017

Este artigo tem como objetivo discutir as interrelações entre performance, consumo digital e condicionantes de interface na plataforma de streaming de games Twitch. Considerações teóricas sobre os três aspectos são comparadas às respostas obtidas através de um questionário online, respondido por 177 usuá- rios brasileiros do Twitch. Os resultados indicam que, a despeito da importância do aspecto de mídia social para o Twitch, as interfaces não facilitam a interação social. As relações hierárquicas implícitas entre os streamers e o público não resultam apenas da expertise dos primeiros. O consumo digital demanda que eles demonstrem outras habilidades, como a performance “entreter”. O próprio Twitch coloca desafios adicionais para os streamers e viewers, de ordem técnica e cognitiva, mas a base de usuários parece ser auto-motivada o suficiente para superar esses obstáculos do sistema.

Published: August 2017

La comunicación oral o habla representa para cualquier ser humano su modo esencial (no único) de interacción sociocultural. Con la instauración de la oralidad en el proceso judicial colombiano se hace necesario que los profesionales en derecho, mejoren sus competencias comunicativas orales. El objetivo de esta investigación fue identificar las características del proceso del habla en los aspectos de voz, dicción, fluidez y prosodia de los estudiantes investigadores del Programa de Derecho de la Universidad Santiago de Cali. Se realizó un estudio descriptivo de corte transversal, seleccionando una muestra no probabilística de 38 personas. Se realizó análisis univariado y bivariado. Se evidenció que a pesar de que el habla que presenta la población de estudio es funcional para algunos contextos cotidianos, se encontraron dificultades de habla como, disfluencia en un 63.16% y en más del 50% de la población disprosodia, entre otros. Esto influye sobre la dinámica discursiva de la Oralidad Procesal, que es la herramienta esencial de la tarea jurisdiccional de los profesionales en derecho.

Tenemos el agrado de compartir con ustedes un logro importante de nuestra Revista: Sophia ha sido aceptada en Web Of Science (WOS) de Thompson Reuters, en el índice Emerging Sources Citations Index, luego de un proceso de evaluación rigurosa que duró alrededor de diez meses. Antes de explicar el significado y el alcance de esta nueva indexación, queremos agradecer a quienes han leído, revisado, citado e incluso, rebatido nuestros artículos, con lo cual han contribuido a la publicación de ediciones de alta calidad, que hoy nos sitúan en este honroso índice internacional.En la actualidad, numerosas editoriales se enfrentan a la evolución requerida en la era digital. Por más simple que esto parezca, la transición de una publicación impresa a una electrónica encierra consideraciones que van mucho más allá de un proceso de digitalización. Una de las más importantes es la adopción del lenguaje XML, el cual permite, mediante una marcación de etiquetas, la codificación de la estructura de un artículo de manera estandarizada para lograr la interoperabilidad de los textos en la web. Por ejemplo, cuando alguien digita una palabra en un buscador de internet, la información aparece ordenada de tal forma que brinda opciones exactas a partir de los mecanismos de búsqueda; dicha precisión se debe al lenguaje de marcación del XML y su estructura, de modo que esta información pueda ser almacenada, transmitida, procesada, visualizada e impresa, por diversos tipos de aplicaciones y dispositivos. Este lenguaje exigió a los editores la implementación de herramientas tecnológicas, como el gestor electrónico de publicaciones Open Journal Systems (OJS), los sistemas de marcación Scielo y el DOI (identificador de objetos digitales), para garantizar a los lectores el acceso al texto completo, la correcta integración de los datos que describen el artículo y la permanencia de este en la web.
On r-dynamic coloring of some graph operations
Authors: Agustin Ika Hesti , Dafik D. , Harsya A. Y.
Published: August 2017

Let $G$ be a simple, connected and undirected graph. Let $r,k$ be natural number. By a proper $k$-coloring  of a graph $G$, we mean a map $ c : V (G) \rightarrow S$, where $|S| = k$, such that any two adjacent vertices receive different colors. An $r$-dynamic $k$-coloring is a proper $k$-coloring $c$ of $G$ such that $|c(N (v))| \geq min\{r, d(v)\}$ for each vertex $v$ in $V(G)$, where $N (v)$ is the neighborhood of $v$ and $c(S) = \{c(v) : v \in S\}$ for a vertex subset $S$ . The $r$-dynamic chromatic number, written as $\chi_r(G)$, is the minimum $k$ such that $G$ has an $r$-dynamic $k$-coloring. Note that the $1$-dynamic chromatic number of graph is equal to its chromatic number, denoted by $\chi(G)$, and the $2$-dynamic chromatic number of graph has been studied under the name a dynamic chromatic number, denoted by $\chi_d(G)$. By simple observation it is easy to see that $\chi_r(G)\le \chi_{r+1}(G)$, however $\chi_{r+1}(G)-\chi_r(G)$ can be arbitrarily large, for example $\chi(Petersen)=2, \chi_d(Petersen)=3$, but $\chi_3(Petersen)=10$. Thus, finding an exact values of $\chi_r(G)$ is significantly useful. In this paper, we will show some exact values of $\chi_r(G)$ when $G$ is an operation of special graphs.
Size multipartite Ramsey numbers for small paths versus books
Authors: Jayawardene Chula J. , Ratnayake Jayampathy
Published: August 2017

Given $j \ge 2$,  for  graphs $G$ and $H$, the size Ramsey multipartite number $m_j(G, H)$ is defined as the smallest natural number $t$ such that any blue red coloring of the edges of the  graph $K_{j \times t}$, necessarily containes a red $G$ or a blue $H$ as subgraphs. Let the book with $n$ pages is defined as the graph $K_1 + K_{1,n}$ and denoted by $B_n$. In this paper, we  obtain the exact values of the size Ramsey numbers $m_j(P_3, H)$ for $j \ge 3$ where  $H$ is a book $B_n$. We also derive some upper and lower bounds for the size Ramsey numbers $m_j(P_4, H)$ where  $H$ is a book $B_n$.
A strict upper bound for size multipartite Ramsey numbers of paths versus stars
Authors: Jayawardene Chula
Published: August 2017

Let $P_n$ represent the path of size $n$. Let $K_{1,m-1}$ represent a star of size $m$ and be denoted by $S_{m}$. Given a two coloring of the edges of a complete graph $K_{j \times s}$ we say that $K_{j \times s}\rightarrow (P_n,S_{m+1})$ if there is a copy of $P_n$ in the first color or a copy of $S_{m+1}$ in the second color. The size Ramsey multipartite number $m_j(P_n, S_{m+1})$ is the smallest natural number $s$ such that $K_{j \times s}\rightarrow (P_n,S_{m+1})$. Given $j,n,m$ if $s=\left\lceil \dfrac{n+m-1-k}{j-1} \right\rceil$, in this paper, we show that the size Ramsey numbers $m_j(P_n,S_{m+1})$ is bounded above by $s$ for $k=\left\lceil \dfrac{n-1}{j} \right\rceil$. Given $j\ge 3$ and $s$, we will obtain an infinite class $(n,m)$ that achieves this upper bound $s$. In the later part of the paper, will also investigate necessary and sufficient conditions needed for the upper bound to hold.

A relação professor-aluno vista pela ótica cinematográfica
Authors: Monobe Teruo
Published: August 2017

O professor deve possuir o domínio do conteúdo, da comunicação e do relacionamento como elementos-chave para promover a aprendizagem. Desses, a relação professor-aluno constitui-se em um dos principais elementos, cujos outros componentes são: o respeito mútuo entre professor e aluno; a confiança que o aluno precisa ter no professor; o compromisso do aluno em seguir as instruções do professor; o interesse do professor com a aprendizagem do aluno; o acompanhamento e a reflexão sobre o progresso dos alunos por parte do professor. Essa relação incorpora, portanto, compromisso recíproco, evidenciando o conceito de confiança. A confiança é tão importante quanto perigosa, pois envolve o risco de que a pessoa em quem se deposita a confiança possa desapontar, ocasionando perdas e danos, incluindo de auto-estima. A relação de confiança obriga as partes a serem transparentes, para que não haja dúvida a respeito da boa-fé incorporada nessa relação. A avaliação que o professor conduz em testes subjetivos é na essência baseada na confiança; igualmente, o aluno não pode violar o princípio da confiança, trapaceando na prova. O filme “O Clube do Imperador” mostra a relação professor-aluno em sua plenitude, evidenciando como esses princípios podem ser válidos na prática.

Costumava ser mais fácil: fechar as fronteiras, montar os bloqueios de estrada,parar os trens, cortar as linhas telefônicas e então reprimir seu povo com impunidade. Foi isto o que os militares fizeram na antiga Birmânia quando esmagaram um levante pró-democracia em 1988. Na semana passada, quando os generais começaram a atacar os monges budistas e seus simpatizantes nas ruas de Mianmar, eles descobriram que o mundo tinha mudado. As pessoas estavam assistindo. A junta se viu face a face com uma revolução na tecnologia da resistência, na qual um exército guerrilheiro de cidadãos repórteres estava transmitindo vídeos, fotos e notícias pela Internet enquanto os eventos se desenrolavam. As imagens chegaram às telas de televisão e aos jornais, e o mundo foi inundado de cenas de dezenas de milhares de monges nas ruas e do caos e violência enquanto a junta reprimia o maior levante popular em duas décadas. A velha tecnologia de armas e cassetetes foi superada pelo imediatismo da comunicação eletrônica de uma forma que o mundo nunca viu. (...)"Hoje, todo cidadão é um correspondente de guerra", disse Phillip Knightley, autor de "The First Casualty" (a primeira baixa), uma história do jornalismo de guerra que começa com as cartas enviadas por soldados na Criméia, nos anos 1850, à "guerra na sala de estar" no Vietnã nos anos 70, quando pessoas puderam assistir uma guerra pela televisão pela primeira vez."Os celulares com vídeo com capacidade de transmissão possibilitaram a qualquer um noticiar uma guerra", ele escreveu em uma entrevista por e-mail. "Basta apenas estar lá".

Essas palavras trazem à luz as discussões da cidade, da rua, como um campo de atuação e experimentação, que interfere e sofre interferência pelas relações das pessoas, na construção de identidades e como potência de atuação e pesquisa em temas que se apresentam e fazem parte do nosso cotidiano. Apresenta duas ações realizadas em praças públicas: “Doce Caminho” intervenção urbana integrante do 37 ̊ Salão de Arte Contemporânea de Piracicaba e “Realejo das Imagens” que faz parte das atividades do projeto temático “Biotecnologias de rua 1 ”, projeto de pesquisa, ação e intervenção que articula divulgação da ciência diferentes linguagens, espaços, abordagens temáticas e relações com o público como foco da pesquisa a partir do tema biotecnologias. O projeto aposta no poder das imagens dos vídeos/registros, deixando muitas vezes que ela “fale sozinha”, tendo este texto apenas como um aparato contextual. Essas linhas arriscam a fazer associações entre esses dois trabalhos em favor de discutir a utilização da arte como meio para percepção pública que valoriza a subjetividade e trás à tona narrativas e camadas muitas vezes anuladas.

Published: August 2017

O presente artigo pretende analisar a trajetória feminina no que tange ao desenvolvimento da dependência química. Para tanto, serão apresentados e esmiuçados os discursos de mulheres em tratamento contra o vício de drogas entrevistadas em duas comunidades terapêuticas localizadas na região metropolitana do Rio de Janeiro: o Instituto Vida Renovada (IVR) e o Projeto Reconstruir. As entrevistas de caráter semiestruturado que servem de base para a análise aqui apresentada foram realizadas entre os anos de 2010 e 2014. Diante dos dados coletados é possível dizer que as experiências das entrevistadas no âmbito da dependência química são marcadas por peculiaridades que se tornam visíveis quando o gênero é adotado como norteador da observação.

Plasma leakage is one crucial point of dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) that differentiates it from dengue fever (DF). DHF has to meet 4 criteria which are 2 – 7 days of acute fever, hemorrhagic manifestation, thrombocytopenia (≤100.000 cells/mm3) and evidence of plasma leakage. Plasma leakage consists of increasing hematocrit ≥20%, hypoalbuminemia or evidence of pleural effusion or ascites. Often doctors only base their DHF diagnosis on the presence of thrombocytopenia. This study analyzed the presence of plasma leakage between adult and pediatric patients with a DHF diagnosis in RSUD Dr. Soetomo in order to make the diagnosis and healthcare services better in the future. This was a retrospective study which used medical records of DHF patients admitted from January to June 2014. 78 cases were included, 24 adult patients (31%) and 54 pediatric patients (69%). 29/78 (37%) patients had no evidence of plasma leakage. No adult patients had ascites whereas 11/54 (20%) pediatric patients presented with ascites. No adult patients had pleural effusion whereas 25/54 (53%) pediatric patients did. Most adult patients that had serum albumin checked had normal albumin levels (12/14 [86%]) while only 14/28 (52%) pediatric patients had normal albumin level. 5/22 (23%) adult patients versus 32/53 (60%) pediatric patients showed hematocrit increments ≥20%. Patients admitted with dengue virus infection may currently be often misclassified as DHF because there are no plasma leakage manifestation in some patients.. There are significant differences in plasma leakage manifestations between adult and pediatric patients which poses a theory that pediatric patients are more susceptible to have plasma leakage manifestations than adult patients.

Tujuan: mencari peningkatan ekspresi cleaved caspase-3 pada pasien kanker serviks IIB tipe sel skuamosa sesudah pemberian kemoterapi neoadjuvan cisplatin dan mencari kapan waktu yang tepat untuk mendeteksi apoptosis menggunakan cleaved caspase-3. Bahan dan Metode: Jenis penelitian analitik observasional berpasangan. Dilakukan pada penderita kanker serviks IIB tipe sel skuamosa berdasarkan kriteria FIGO yang berobat di POSA RSUD Dr. Soetomo Surabaya. Penelitian dilakukan mulai bulan Mei 2014. Sebelum dilakukan terapi semua penderita diambil biopsi serviks. Kemudian penderita diberikan cisplatin 50mg/m2/minggu Diambil biopsi serviks setelah diberikan kemoterapi ke 1 dan ke 4 (maksimal 8 jam setelah kemoterapi, sampel kedua). Sampel diperiksakan imunohistokimia cleaved caspase 3. Dilakukan penghitungan ekspresi cleaved caspase 3 di bawah mikroskop dengan perbesaran 400x pada 10 lapang pandang. Pengujian statistik dilakukan dengan nilai kemaknaan p<0,05.Hasil: Rata-rata ekspresi cleaved caspase 3 sebelum kemoterapi adalah 1,46± 1,854. Setelah kemoterapi ke 1 didapatkan rata- rata 10,77± 3,655.Setelah kemoterapi ke 4 didapatkan rata- rata 12,77± 5,703. Pada pemeriksaan didapatkan ekspresi cleaved caspase 3 setelah pemberian kemoterapi lebih meningkat dibandingkan sebelum pemberian kemoterapi (p<0,01), sedangkan ekspresi cleaved caspase 3 setelah kemoterapi ke 1 dan ke 4 tidak didapat-kan perbedaan bermakna (p=0,882).Simpulan: Pemberian kemoterapi terbukti memberikan efek peningkatan ekspresi cleaved caspase-3. Sehingga cleaved caaspase-3 dapat dijadikan sebagai salah satu uji apoptosis pada efek kemoterapi terhadap sel kanker.

Tujuan: melaporkan kasus endosalpingiosis pada wanita, 36 tahun, dengan keluhan nyeri perut bagian bawah yang dialami sejak 4 tahun terakhir.Kasus: Wanita, 36 tahun, P1A0, datang ke poliklinik dengan keluhan nyeri perut bagian bawah dialami sejak 4 tahun terakhir. Haid teratur tiap bulan dengan lama haid 4-5 hari disertai dismenorea. Riwayat keputihan dan demam disangkal. Riwayat persalinan secara pervaginam tahun 2004 dan tidak pernah menggunakan alat kontrasepsi.Tatalaksana Kasus: Teraba massa kistik pada adneksa kanan, mobile, terasa nyeri tekan. USG ginekologi trans-vaginal me-nunjukkan massa hipoechoic pada adneksa kanan dan kiri. Laparaskopi menunjukkan uterus ukuran 7x5 cm dengan permuka-an licin mengalami perlengketan dengan rektum di bagian posterior, dilakukan adhesiolisis. Terdapat kista paratubal kanan dan pseudocyst pada adneksa kiri, permukaan licin, berisi cairan putih kekuningan. Dilakukan kistektomi pada kedua kista tersebut. Gambaran histopatologi menujukkan cystadenoma serosum dan endosalpingiosis. Post operasi hari ke-10 pasien datang kontrol dengan luka operasi baik dan keluhan nyeri perut berkurang.Simpulan: Follow-up rutin pada kasus endosalpingiosis tidak diperlukan selama tidak ada keluhan yang bermakna dari pasien, karena kasus endosalpingiosis belum pernah dilaporkan akan mengalami transformasi menjadi suatu keganasan. Pasien ini kami ditindaklanjuti 3 bulan dan 6 bulan pertama post operasi, dengan hasil keluhan nyeri perut sudah tidak dirasakan lagi.

Objectives: to analyze the efforts of maternal health services that may affect maternal mortality rate.Materials and Methods: The study was conducted at the Health Office of East Java using secondary data from 38 districts/cities in East Java in 2015 that includes performance antenatal care K1 and K4, postnatal care, early detection of complications in pregnant women, natal in health workers and health facilities, management of complications by health workers and MMR. Data were analyzed with statistical method with spatial regression and illustrated with thematic maps by application ArcView statistics.Results: the highest MMR was in Bojonegoro district, Lumajang, Probolinggo, Bondowoso, Situbondo and Probolinggo city. Some districts/cities that have the highest maternal mortality has proximity of areas, namely the district Lumajang, Probolinggo, Bondowoso, Situbondo and Probolinggo city. Their proximity concluded an association condition and the causes of MMR between districts so they can be studied more in depth about the causes of MMR kind of social, cultural and geographical characteristics. The coverage maternal health services to all districts/cities in East Java province is not much difference.Conclusion: the maternal mortality rate in the district/city of East Java province in 2015 was not much affected by maternal health services so we need more research on other causes of MMR in districts/city of East Java Province.
