USRT: A Solar Radiative Transfer Model Dedicated to Estimating Urban 3D Surface Reflectance
Authors: Hu Deyong , Liu Manqing , Di Yufei , Yu Chen , Wang Yichen
Published: November 2020

Urban 3D surface reflectance is a critical parameter for the modeling of surface biophysical processes. It is of great significance to enhance the accuracy of reflectance in urban areas. Based on the urban solar radiative transfer (USRT) model, this study presents a methodology for estimating urban reflectance using the sky view factor (SVF) derived from airborne LiDAR data. Then, the USRT model was used to retrieve urban 3D surface reflectance from Landsat 8 data over the typical area of Beijing. The reflectance from USRT model was compared with the estimated value obtained from the model without considering the impact of morphological characteristics of the urban underlying surface (flat model). The results showed that the urban sample reflectance estimated by the USRT model was close to the sample reflectance of the suburban underlying surface which was less affected by morphological characteristics. The research summaries are as follows: (1) The definite physical meaning is presented in the USRT model, and can be applied to estimate the physical parameters of the urban underlying surface. (2) The reflectance from the USRT model is slightly larger than the reflectance derived from the flat model, which indicates that the accuracy of urban 3D surface reflectance is improved by the USRT model. (3) The effects of the SVF and building reflectance are different. The SVF presents a strong sensitivity to the estimation of the urban 3D surface reflectance, and the variations of building reflectance setting have little impact on urban reflectance, which is characterized by low sensitivity. Generally, the methodology of estimating urban reflectance proposed in this study can better clarify the impact mechanism of urban geometry on the radiative transfer processes and further promote the application and development of urban quantitative remote sensing.

The relationship between the nasopharyngeal virus load, IgA and IgG antibodies to both the S1-RBD-protein and the N-protein, as well as the neutralizing activity (NAbs) against SARS-CoV-2 in the blood of moderately afflicted COVID-19 patients, needs further longitudinal investigation. Several new serological methods to examine these parameters were developed, validated and applied in three patients of a family which underwent an ambulatory course of COVID-19 for six months. The virus load had almost completely disappeared after about four weeks. Serum IgA levels to the S1-RBD-protein and, to a lesser extent, to the N-protein, peaked about three weeks after clinical disease onset but declined soon thereafter. IgG levels rose continuously, reaching a plateau at approximately six weeks, and stayed elevated over the observation period. Virus-neutralizing activity reached a peak about 4 weeks after disease onset but dropped slowly. The longitudinal associations of virus neutralization and the serological immune response suggest immunity in patients even after a mild clinical course of COVID-19.

Shotgun metagenomic sequencing (SMg) enables the simultaneous detection and characterization of viruses in human, animal and environmental samples. However, lack of sensitivity still poses a challenge and may lead to poor detection and data acquisition for detailed analysis. To improve sensitivity, we assessed a broad scope targeted sequence capture (TSC) panel (ViroCap) in both human and animal samples. Moreover, we adjusted TSC for the Oxford Nanopore MinION and compared the performance to an SMg approach. TSC on the Illumina NextSeq served as the gold standard. Overall, TSC increased the viral read count significantly in challenging human samples, with the highest genome coverage achieved using the TSC on the MinION. TSC also improved the genome coverage and sequencing depth in clinically relevant viruses in the animal samples, such as influenza A virus. However, SMg was shown to be adequate for characterizing a highly diverse animal virome. TSC on the MinION was comparable to the NextSeq and can provide a valuable alternative, offering longer reads, portability and lower initial cost. Developing new viral enrichment approaches to detect and characterize significant human and animal viruses is essential for the One Health Initiative.
Rootstock Effects on Water Relations of Young Almond Trees (cv. Soleta) When Subjected to Water Stress and Rehydration
Authors: Álvarez Sara , Martín Hugo , Barajas Enrique , Rubio José Antonio , Vivaldi Gaetano Alessandro
Published: November 2020

Rootstocks with size controlling potential are being used in newly planted intensive almond orchards. Due to increased water scarcity, characterizing the response of these rootstocks to water deficit is required. The current work aims to assess whether the rootstock can improve their drought tolerance. We investigated the morphological and physiological response of P. dulcis “Soleta” either self-rooted or grafted on Rootpac-20 rootstock. Plant responses were evaluated during a water stress period (withholding irrigation for 20 days) and subsequent recovery in potted plants under greenhouse conditions. Self-rooted plants had a higher capacity to control vigour than plants grafted onto Rootpac-20, both under full irrigation and no irrigation conditions. Stressed plants exhibited severe dehydration, as indicated by lower leaf water potential and relative water content. Removing irrigation reduced stomatal conductance in grafted and self-rooted plants by a similar extent, suggesting an efficient stomatal control, while the reduction in the net photosynthesis rate was more marked in grafted plants compared to non-grafted plants. Self-rooted plants under water stress increased their root to shoot ratio and water use efficiency, which are positive aspects for growth and survival of these plants.
Automated Mapping of Water Table for Cranberry Subirrigation Management: Comparison of Three Spatial Interpolation Methods
Authors: Celicourt Paul , Gumiere Silvio Jose , Lafond Jonathan A. , Gumiere Thiago , Gallichand Jacques , Rousseau Alain N.
Published: November 2020

In this paper we first compare three different methods of spatial interpolation, i.e., inverse distance weighting (IDW), thin plate splines (TPS), and kriging on weekly water table depth (WTD) measurements from 80 observation wells in two cranberry farms (Farm A and Farm B) located in Québec, Canada. We use the leave-one-out cross-validation approach to assess the performance of the methods. Second, we evaluate the influence of the density of measurement points over the interpolation error for the cited methods. Third, we assess the performance of drainage systems and their impacts on crop productivity as a result of cumulative rainfall. Results along with practical considerations show that TPS is the best interpolator for WTD and this superiority is maintained and further demonstrated through a sensitivity analysis of the methods to spatial sampling density, i.e., partitioning the data into subsets of 25, 50, and 75% of the dataset. However, the random approach for selecting these subsets shows an unexpected result; that is, the interpolation methods exhibit a higher performance in terms of the Pearson correlation (r) for the 25% data subset at Farm B. Meanwhile, the cumulative precipitation over a three-day period, the maximum time required to return the soil matric potential to the optimal value after a major rainfall event, had a steady influence on WTD and thus crop productivity in the studied farms. This influence is more apparent for Farm A, but a rather random effect is noted for Farm B. This study presents a water-management-based strategy that mitigates the supplementary cost and effort for sensor deployment in water table monitoring for cranberry production. It is therefore of practical interest to cranberry growers and decision-makers who aim to maximize yields through water-management-oriented strategies.
Hydrogeological Studies Integrating the Climate, Freshwater Cycle, and Catchment Geography for the Benefit of Urban Resilience and Sustainability
Authors: Mielby Susie , Henriksen Hans Jørgen
Published: November 2020

Today, there is an increasing need to understand how to link the management of the surface and subsurface to avoid disasters in many urban areas and/or reduce the likelihood of future risks. There is a need for thorough investigation of subsurface processes. This investigation should entail an analysis of water security, flood risks, and drought hazards in urban areas that may affect long-term sustainability and the ability to recover from disturbance, e.g., a capacity for resilience. In this context, as part of this analysis, potential biophysical and hydro-meteorological hazards need to be studied and subdivided according to geological, hydrogeological, man-made, and climatic origin, and by their characteristic temporal scales and site specific characteristics. The introduction of adaptive design and resilience in urban and suburban planning and management requires a shift towards more organic, adaptive, and flexible design and management strategies. This leads to the use of a complex cross-disciplinary methodology. We consider data collation, modelling, and monitoring designed to fit typical urban situations and complexity. Furthermore, implementation of strategic planning, decision-making to manage the consequences of future infrastructure and constructions are considered. The case studies presented are experiences from different hydrogeological studies performed in Odense, Denmark. Rising population and densification is affecting Odense, and there is risk of raised seawater level, groundwater, and surface-water flooding. The anthropogenic modification of subsurface structures and increased climate changes enhance the risk of hazards and the risk of coinciding impacts.

Published: November 2020

The effect of watering basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) with water treated with low-pressure, low-temperature glow plasma of low frequency (LPGP) on growth habits and plant metabolites was tested. Watering with the LPGP treated water was beneficial for sprouting basil seeds. Watering with non-treated water was advantageous solely for the number of leaves per plant and mass of one leaf. Watering with the LPGP treated water in contact with the air (LPGPA), nitrogen (LPGPN), carbon dioxide (LPGPC), and methane (LPGPM) increased the total yield of collected essential oil by 40%, 60%, 20%, and 20%, respectively. Watering with water treated under molecular oxygen (LPGPO) decreased that yield by 12.5%. A diverse effect of particular kinds of the LPGP treated water upon the composition of isolated essential oil was also noted.
Characterization of genes involved in the autoregulation of nodulation in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)

Published: November 2020

Establishment of an excess number of nodules markedly affects plant growth and development due to overconsumption of photosynthates for nitrogen fixation. Hence, the total root nodule number must be tightly controlled via a negative feedback mechanism (AON) to maintain an optimal nitrogen and carbon  balance in chickpea plants. Chickpea genes whichplay important regulatory roles in root nodulation in chickpea (Cicer arietinum) were identified by aligning these genes with known genes of legumes available at phytozome through BLAST search. Chickpea nodulation genes identified and characterized in this study include CaNFR1/5, CaENOD40, CaNARK, CaRIC1, CaRIC2, CaNIC1, CaRDN1, CaRDN2, CaRDN3, CamiRNA172 and CaNNC1. These genes were orthologous to Medicago truncatula nodulation genes and were significantly expressed by inoculating chickpea plants with Mesorhizobium ciceri analysed by qRT-PCR using RNA isolated from the root and leaf tissues of inoculated chickpea plants at 0, 2, and 6 days after inoculation. Non-inoculated plants served as control. CaNARK genes were expressed in roots and leaves while the rest of the nodulation genes were expressed only in the roots. The nodulation ability of chickpea may be controlled by an internal AON mechanism which involves several genes that are orthologues with other legumes.
The Rationality of Chinas Real Estate Tax Levy: An Analysis from the Perspective of Monogamy
Authors: Sun Keren
Published: November 2020

According to the data from China Statistical Yearbooks, we can calculate the average annual house price increase rate, and get such results: in the 21st century the average annual house price increase rate of China, Beijing City, Shanghai City, and Shenzhen City are 7.89%, 11.7%,11.23%, and 13.96% respectively. A small part of people is happy this situation, but most people are not. This situation has led to a substantial increase in housing prices, which has severely eroded the housing demand and well-being of the middle and low classes, then interest conflicts emerge. This paper analyzes the similarities between marriage needs and housing needs, they both belong to the physiological needs and existence needs, then marriage needs and housing needs are both needed to be adjusted by the moral system, rather than to allow power and wealth to be unscrupulous and unconstrained in these fields of housing demand and marriage demand.
Hacia una historia crítica de la mirada. Repensando el uso de la imagen dentro de las ciencias sociales
Authors: Flores Nava Fabiola Jesavel
Published: November 2020

En este artículo, se rescata el discurso crítico como elemento fundamental para sustentar lo que se ha denominado Historia crítica de la mirada. Aquí no se intenta establecer un simple método de interpretación de la imagen, sino que, por el contrario, se pretende rescatar el uso de la imagen como parte fundamental de un amplio análisis capaz de contener dentro de sí memorias y expresiones sociales que permitan exponer las contradicciones imperantes en la vida moderna, una vida que obliga o vuelve indispensable el ocultamiento del funcionamiento de la realidad para que en la práctica cotidiana permanezcan vigentes las formas institucionalizadas de la sociedad. Por ello planteamos que los juicios, las ideologías y preferencias de los que operan el aparato, los que crean la imagen, los que la interpretan, así como de los que encargan las imágenes, etc., no son neutrales, sino que están inmersas en un mundo complejo, contradictorio y construido sobre dinámicas cotidianas que reproducen y favorecen una práctica material determinada, muchas veces acorde con el discurso dominante.
El recorrido de una elite regional. Catamarca entre la revolución, la república y la independencia (1814 y 1821)
Authors: Kloster Mariano , Ayrolo Valentina
Published: November 2020

El presente artículo propone analizar la dinámica política de la elite de Catamarca, ciudad subalterna dentro de la Gobernación Tucumán, considerando dos momentos fundamentales en el proceso de su construcción política. El primero, el de su inserción en la nueva gobernación de Tucumán creada 1814. El segundo, el de su inclusión en la ‘República’ de Tucumán hasta su separación e independencia. Considerando una clave analítica regional, entendemos que los cambios políticos habidos en Catamarca hallaron en el cabildo su escenario y cauce y en la elite colonial a los ejecutores del cambio.
Potencialidad de las discusiones sobre revitalización sindical para pensar la historia reciente del movimiento obrero argentino
Authors: Arriaga Ana Elisa
Published: November 2020

En este trabajo proponemos recuperar el debate sobre revitalización desde su formulación en la literatura anglosajona hasta su recepción en Argentina, con la intención de valorar su pertinencia para pensar las transformaciones de la acción sindical en perspectiva histórica. Partimos de reconocer distintas acepciones del término anglosajón, que a su vez se distanciaron de la utilización que se hizo del mismo en la Argentina. El punto clave de nuestro argumento radica en cómo periodizar y/o caracterizar a nivel local la “crisis de representación sindical” y a partir de ello discutir la periodización utilizada al analizar las transformaciones del sindicalismo en términos de revitalización, como así también rescatar la potencialidad de algunas estrategias implicadas en ese concepto para pensar trayectorias organizativas y reivindicativas poco visibilizadas en la historia reciente.

Published: November 2020

Los trabajos reunidos ofrecen distintas miradas sobre el federalismo en la segunda mitad del siglo XIX. Cada uno de los enfoques destaca la complejidad de aquel fenómeno en un momento donde el sistema institucional se formaba a partir de las bases establecidas por la constitución nacional de 1853. Esta había optado por el sistema federal para reglar la distribución de poder entre las partes –provinciales y nacional- que conformaban el país, pero ciertas cláusulas preveían dispositivos para fortalecer el estado central que le daban cierto matiz unitario. En la práctica esto implicó una serie de ajustes en la cual incidieron factores tan diversos como la cuestión fiscal, las relaciones de fuerzas entre los diversos actores y la disímil inserción en la modernización económica.
Entre peronistas y radicales: disputas en torno al monumento al gaucho en la provincia de Buenos Aires, 1947-1948
Authors: Casas Matías Emiliano
Published: November 2020

La utilización política de la figura del gaucho –que se había revitalizado con intensidad a finales de los años treinta– encontró un nuevo capítulo en los debates legislativos bonaerenses acontecidos entre 1947 y 1948. El tutelaje sobre lo gauchesco que había ostentado el sector conservador a partir de la institución del Día de la Tradición en 1939, entre otras intervenciones, se vio desafiada por la emergencia del peronismo. Ante la progresiva identificación de lo criollo con Juan Perón, los legisladores radicales bonaerense concibieron el proyecto de emplazar un monumento al gaucho para confirmar la potestad radical sobre lo “genuinamente argentino”.
Concepciones nativas y académicas sobre los partidos políticos modernos. Reflexiones en torno al estudio del Partido Socialista argentino
Authors: Cabezas Gonzalo E.
Published: November 2020

Este artículo analiza concepciones nativas y académicas sobre los partidos políticos modernos en Argentina. Por un lado, rastreamos las características que según la visión de los dirigentes socialistas de comienzos de siglo XX debía tener un partido para ser considerado moderno. Por otro, observamos cómo importantes figuras del campo académico, desde su pertenencia política socialista, construyeron una mirada normativa de los partidos modernos que guardó ciertas similitudes con la concepción nativa. Por último, recuperamos los estudios sobre las prácticas políticas como vía para repensar la política desde sus formas concretas y no desde visiones prescriptivas cuyos supuestos no se explicitan.
Sentidos de lo político: una aproximación a las memorias militantes de la ciudad de Bahía Blanca
Authors: González Gabriela
Published: November 2020

En este trabajo nos proponemos analizar, desde una mirada antropológica, cómo la reformulación de la militancia política peronista de los años setenta, con foco en la ciudad de Bahía Blanca, se proyecta hacia la militancia política durante los gobiernos kirchneristas. Se contempla particularmente la valoración que sujetos pertenecientes a la denominada generación del setenta enuncian en términos de continuidades y rupturas entre su militancia pasada y la militancia política de las nuevas generaciones. Se procura así dar cuenta de aquellos elementos que hoy entran en tensión a cerca de la militancia en Bahía Blanca y de las distintas interpretaciones, a través de las cuales la política es caracterizada.

Justicia de paz y organización del territorio en la campaña sur de Buenos Aires durante la primera mitad del siglo XIX. Un diálogo con Juan Carlos Garavaglia*
Authors: Yangilevich Melina
Published: November 2020

El artículo describe y analiza la organización y el funcionamiento de la justicia de paz en el espacio al sur del río Salado de la provincia de Buenos Aires durante el gobierno de Juan Manuel de Rosas a partir de los aportes de Juan Carlos Garavaglia, entre otros especialistas. Uno de los propósitos centrales del texto consiste en comparar dicho proceso con el acontecido en el espacio al norte del mencionado río. Para ello, se consideró la organización de la justicia de paz a partir de la iniciativa de Bernardino Rivadavia, la reorganización de las jurisdicciones realizada por Rosas como consecuencia del levantamiento de los Libres del Sur en 1839. Asimismo, se indagó en el perfil del personal de los juzgados de paz para contrastarlos con los estudios realizados por reconocidos historiadores así como en el funcionamiento cotidiano de dicha institución a partir de un conjunto variado de documentación
Entre el Estado y la utopía, entre la nación y la otredad: un diálogo con el joven Garavaglia de los años sesenta
Authors: Pro Juan , Sierra María
Published: November 2020

A través del recuerdo de experiencias personales y de un diálogo con el libro de memorias de Juan Carlos Garavaglia, Una juventud en los años sesenta, los autores reflexionan sobre los problemas que lo preocuparon, como historiador y como hombre comprometido con la realidad social de su tiempo. El diálogo se ensaya en torno a los temas de investigación propios de los autores de este texto: la utopía, entendida como impulso político hacia el futuro antes que como un específico género literario; y la otredad de un pueblo históricamente castigado por la exclusión, como es el gitano; a los que se suma la referencia a una visión no convencional del Estado. Destacan el pluralismo cultural y la tolerancia intelectual de Juan Carlos; proponiendo saltar las mismas barreras contra las que él había batallado: aquellas interpuestas por los “nacionalismos”, las “racionalidades absolutas” o el pretendido “fin de la historia”.

MUCOADHESIVE BUCCAL DRUG DELIVERY SYSTEMS CONTAINING POLYSACCHARIDES
Authors: PELIN IRINA M. , SUFLET DANA M.
Published: November 2020

The buccal mucosa is an attractive site for drug administration as it allows avoiding the enzymatic degradation of the drug in the gastrointestinal tract and its hepatic metabolism. For buccal administration, different drug delivery systems with controlled mucoadhesion have been developed and some of them are available on the market. Mucoadhesion makes it possible to obtain prolonged, local or systemic drug action, and this process is highly influenced by several factors, among which, the reactivity of macromolecules from the formulations is very important. Polysaccharides are increasingly studied due to their abundance in natural resources, low-cost availability and easy chemical modification,
but also due to their biocompatibility, biodegradability and non-toxicity properties.
This review briefly describes the advantages of using the buccal route of drug administration, the influencing factors that are taken into account for obtaining mucoadhesive dosage forms, and the main polysaccharides and their derivatives used for fabrication of buccal drug delivery systems.
OPTIMIZATION AND BIOCHEMICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF THERMO-ALKALOTOLERANT CELLULASE ENZYME FROM ASPERGILLUS TERREUS PPCF
Authors: PARVEEN HEENA , BISHT NEHA , TEWARI LAKSHMI
Published: November 2020

The aim of this study was to boost the production rate of a novel thermo-alkalotolerant cellulase (FPase) enzyme from the fungal isolate Aspergillus terreus PPCF. Initially, the extracellular FPase activity was 0.166 ± 0.03 UmL-1 in the culture filtrate, which further increased up to 0.91 ± 0.13 UmL-1 under optimized conditions (3% w/v wheat bran and
0.5% w/v ammonium sulfate). Through response surface methodology, the FPase activity was enhanced to 10.78 UmL1 under the cumulative effect of different factors. The zymogram analysis revealed only one activity band, with the molecular weight of ~110 KDa. The optimum pH was 7.0, but the enzyme was stable in a pH range of 4-10. The optimum temperature was 50 °C, but the stability range of the enzyme was 30-90 °C. The maximum effect of Mg2+ was observed on the FPase enzyme. The findings of the present study demonstrate the thermo- and alkalotolerance of the obtained cellulase enzyme, which will be beneficial to the biofuel and other industries.

Published: November 2020

The objective of the present study is the characterization of an adsorbent plant material based on Hypericum perforatum L. and the investigation of its feasibility for the removal of Cu2+ ions from aqueous solutions. XRD, TGA, FTIR, SEM and low-temperature nitrogen adsorption were used for the analytical characterization of the material. Particle size
distribution and slurry pH of the investigated material were also determined. The effect of contact time, solution acidity and initial metal concentration on the adsorption of Cu(II) ions was studied by means of the batch method. Desorption studies have also been performed. Equilibrium experimental data were fitted to the linear Langmuir, Freundlich and Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherm models. The maximum adsorption capacity was calculated and it was concluded that the material could be used as an effective biosorbent for the removal of copper ions from aqueous media.

Sözlü kültür açısından, son derece zengin olan Kırmanccanın, Türkiye’deki dil politikaları sonucu yazı dili olması oldukça gecikmelidir. 1800’lerin ortalarında Batılı bir dilbilimci olan Peter Lerch’in derleyip yayımladığı metinlerle ilk kez yazıya dökülen Kırmancca, daha sonra (1800’lerin sonları ve 1900’lerin başlarında) Kürtlerin kendileri tarafından yazılan birkaç dini metin ile yazın hayatını sürdürmüştür. Kırmanccada yüz yılın başında, ortasında ve sonunda yazılan birkaç metin dışında, 1970lerin sonuna dek başka herhangi bir edebi eserden söz etmek mümkün değildir. Ancak 1900’lerin sonlarından itibaren başlayan edebiyat çalışmaları bugün devam etmektedir. Dilin kullanımı üzerindeki baskının kısmen kalkması bu alandaki basın-yayın faaliyetlerine de hız kazandırmıştır. Sadece 2012-2015 yılları arasında basılıp yayımlanan kitap, dergi, gazete sayısı, Kırmancca yayın tarihinin tümünde basılıp yayımlanandan daha fazladır.
Kırmanccanın edebiyat dünyasında sağladığı gelişme, bu yolculuğa her geçen gün artan sayıdaki katılımlarla büyük hız kazanmıştır. Önemli gelişmelerden biri de bu kervana, kültürün temel taşıyıcılarından olan kadınların da katılması ve öyküye kadın elinin de değmesidir.
Bu çalışmada, Kürtçenin zengin sözlü kültüründen beslenerek sağlam bir zemine oturan Kırmancca modern öykü, dünü ve bugünü ile ele alınmıştır.

PROTEINURIA SECONDARY TO HYPERTHYROIDISM: A CASE STUDY
Authors: Darla B Harish
Published: November 2020

A 28-year-old Indian female presented to the endocrinologist with complaints of dryness of mouth, excessive thirst and loss of almost 8 kg of weight in the past 18 months. On further questioning, the patient revealed to have a good appetite, regular periods, no tremors or palpitation or heat intolerance. The patient has no previous history of any chronic diseases and was not any therapy. Clinical examination of the patient revealed tachycardia, mild tremors, and a diffuse thyromegaly however; no lymph node hyperthyroid related symptoms, no bruit, EOM normal or lid lag was detected. Her physical and vital signs at the time of presentation of the case were- weight: 43.0 kg, hip: 84 cm, waist: 78 cm, waist to hip ratio: 0.93, pulse: 90 bpm. The biochemical investigation report of the patient reveals the parameters to be within normal range (random glucose: 105 mg / dL, urea: 42 mg / dL, serum creatinine: 0.6 mg / dL, uric acid: 4.5 mg / dL, sodium: 142 mMol / L, potassium: 4.0 mMol / L, chloride: 110 mMol / L). The hematological examination was found to be normal for most of the parameters (hemoglobin: 13.5 g / dL, packed cell volume: 40.4, WBC: 5.27 mill / cu.mm, mean corpuscular volume: 79 fL, mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration: 33.4 g / dL, total WBC count: 9200 cells / cu.mm, neutrophils: 60%, lymphocytes: 34%, eosinophils: 03%, monocytes: 3%, basophils: 0%, absolute neutrophil count: 5.52 X 103 / µl, absolute lymphocyte count: 3.13 X 103 / µl, absolute eosinophil count: 0.28 X 103 / µl, absolute monocyte count: 0.28 X 103 / µl, absolute basophil count: 0.00 X 103 / µl, platelet count: 250 X 103 / µl, ESR: 8 mm / hr). However, mean corpuscular hemoglobin was found to be 25.6 pg along with DW-CV: 11.1%, DW-SD: 29.91 fL, SGOT/AST: 33 U/L, SGPT/ALT: 46 U / L, and alkaline phosphatase: 129 U / L. Also, alarming were her thyroid function test results, T3: 5.40 ng / ml while T4 was 28.5 µg / dl and TSH: < 0.010 µlU / ml; proteinuria was also detected. The clinician diagnosed these values as an indication of hyperthyroidism related to Graves diseases/thyroiditis. However, further examination is required to understand the cause of proteinuria and hyperthyroidism. Meanwhile, the patient was immediately instructed to initiate the therapy of non-selective beta-blocker, propranolol 40 mg for symptomatic relief.

Background: External carotid artery (ECA) is the main artery of head and neck region. It has eight named branches to maintain a rich vascularity of most of the structures of head and neck. The present study was undertaken to assess external diameter of ECA at origin and branching pattern of ECA. Methods: A total of 100 carotid specimens of 50 human cadavers (24 males and 26 females) were dissected in the Department of Anatomy at medical colleges and diameter and branching pattern of ECA were noted. Results: The diameter of ECA at its origin was in the ranged between 4.5 to 8 mm with mean of 6.676±0.8053 mm. 77% cases showed normal branching pattern of ECA, the commonest variation was the occurrence of linguofacial trunk (18%) and occipitiauricular trunk (4%). STA and lingual artery (LA) arose commonly from ECA in 71(71%) and 94 cases (94%) respectively. The origin of STA from ECA was statistically significant on left side (56.3%) compare to right (43.7%). Facial artery (FA), occipital artery (OA) and posterior auricular artery (PAA) arises as single branch and common trunk on right and left side. The accessory branches was observed to be present in total 3(3%) cases including 1(33.33%) on right and 2(66.66%) on left side. Conclusion: The present study revealed that the number of branches and branching pattern of ECA is variable and this variations do have a significant role in the various applications of anatomy of ECA for example in embolization, chemotherapy, cervical discectomy, thyroid surgeries etc.

Water pumpkin (Lagenaria siceraria) is a vegetable that contains secondary metabolites that are beneficial to health. Its use as a vegetable is less attractive to the people so that to increase its utilization, dosage forms are made that can attract public interest, one of which is effervescent granules. Effervescent granules are the most popular dosage form because they can serve in fresh drinks. This study aims to determine the effect of variations in the concentration of acids (citric acid-tartaric acid) and base (sodium bicarbonate) on the physical properties of the formula. The water pumpkin effervescent granules made with various ratios of citric acid, tartaric acid, and sodium bicarbonate consisting of FI (2: 1: 2.5); F II (1: 2: 2,5); F III (2: 1: 3,52); F IV (1: 2: 3,44). The granule made by the wet granulation method. The physical properties of the formula included organoleptic, moisture content, flow properties, compressibility index, pH, solubility time, and acceptability test. Based on the results of the evaluation of physical properties, the granule formula of the water pumpkin effervescent meets the standard requirements with a moisture content of 1.26% -2.26%, flow properties from 6.33 to 7.0 seconds, angle of repose 31.14˚-33.69 ˚, compressibility index 13.61% -17.08%, pH 6.1-7.1 and dissolving time 191-223.33 seconds. Variations of citric acid-tartaric acid and sodium bicarbonate affect the physical properties and taste of the effervescent granules. Based on the acceptability test showed that the panelists liked the water pumpkin effervescent granules in FII.

Compliance to achieve treatment success can be improved by providing drug information services (PIO) and counseling to improve understanding of treatment instructions. The general objective of this study was to determine the effect of drug information service and counseling on the level of medication adherence in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) with hypertension in the Banjarbaru Regional Hospital. This study uses a quasi experimental method with a cross sectional approach and takes patient data prospectively. The results of this study indicate that the group given PIO and counseling showed a high level of adherence as many as 20 respondents (100%). Whereas in the group that was not given PIO and the counseling level of adherence was low, there were 4 respondents (20%). Based on the mann-whitney analysis p-value = 0,000 (<α = 0.05) so that there are differences in the group with PIO and counseling with groups without PIO and counseling, while the chi square analysis p-value = 0.004 (<α = 0 , 05) so that PIO and counseling have a significant effect on the level of adherence to taking medication in patients with DM with hypertension at the Banjarbaru Regional Hospital.

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a collection of metabolic symptoms that arise in a person caused by an increase in blood glucose due to damage to insulin secretion or resistance to insulin or both. Diabetes mellitus medication can be either parenteral or oral which can cause side effects in long-term use such as mild diarrhea, bloating, fatigue acidosis, even hypoglycemic renal impairment. To prevent it can use alternative medicine using Dayak onion (Eleutherine palmifolia (L) Merr.). One of the active substances contained in the Dayak onion is the flavonoids. Flavonoids have antidiabetic activity through their functions as antioxidants. The study aims to determine the activity of Dayak scallion Extract (Eleutherine palmifolia (L) Merr.) To decrease blood sugar levels (Mus muscullus), which is glucose-induced. The research was conducted with research draft pre and post test with control group design. The mice used amounted to 25 male white mice that were divided into 5 groups i.e. negative control (CMC Na 0.5%), control positive (Glibenklamid 3 mg/kgBB), Dayak onion-leaf ethanol extract at a dose of 50 mg/kgBB, 100 mg/kgBB and 200 mg/kgBB. Observations of the decrease in blood sugar levels of each test group were conducted on the same day, 30 minutes, 60 and 90 after hyperglycemia. Results showed that Dayak onion leaves ethanol extract had activity as a lowering of blood sugar levels in glucose-induced white mice

Teratogenic is an abnormal development on embryo and is the cause of congenital defect or birth defect. This study aims to determine the effect of the addition of Dioscorea alata L. ethanol extracts to the embryo development on pregnant mice whose given orally to 24 mice which divided to 4 treatment groups, they are the normal group (NG) with NaCMC 0.5%; 28 mg/KgBB treatment group; 35 mg/KgBB; 42 mg/Kg BB. The addition of Dioscorea alata L ethanol extracts was done on the sixth day until the 15th day of pregnancy. On the 18th day of pregnancy, Laparaktomi was done to the pregnant mice and the embryo was taken out of the uterus. The observation was done to the fetus numbers, weight weighing of the fetus's body, dan length measurement of the fetus's body. Another observation is the observation of the external organ defect of the embryo. The study results that the addition of Dioscorea alata L ethanol extracts with various doses have no significant effect (P>0.5) to the mice external fetus development. On the examination of the fetus, we can conclude that Dioscorea alata L ethanol extracts don’t give any effect that may cause the defect of the fetus’ external organ.
