A Brief Overview to Ageing-Related Organ Damage: A Light and Electron Microscopic Approach to Several Systems
Authors:   Bezmialem Vakif University Medical Faculty, Dept. of Histology and Embryology, Eşrefoğlu; M.D Prof. Mukaddes
Published: June 2022

Ageing is thought to be a degenerative process caused by accumulated damage leading to cellular dysfunction, tissue, and organ failure, and eventually death. Although aging-related skin changes are considered the most important indicator of ageing, morphological and functional changes occur in all of the internal organs. Most of those changes are directly or indirectly associated with age-related decline of life quality. Histopathological features of the organs of old people are examined in postmortem tissues which are probably affected by diseases alongside ageing itself. Recent studies principally report the cellular changes obtained from rodents. The most commonly reported ageing-related ultrastructural changes are mitochondrial damage, lysosome and lipofuscin accumulation and dilatation or proliferation of endoplasmic reticulum. Here I summarize ageing-related changes in various organs such as skin, brain, heart, kidney, intestines etc. that have been revealed by light and electron microscopic examinations so far. Understanding ageing-related cell and tissue-based changes and related molecular mechanisms will contribute to the development of new strategies to prevent or eliminate age-related organ damage.

Two deaths due to renal failure in the last 2 month led me to a review the current, state-of-the-art understanding of cardio-pulmonary-renal interactions and their related pathophysiology, perpetuating nature, and cycles of increased susceptibility and reciprocal progression. It indicates that Organ injury is the consequence of maladaptive neurohormonal activation, oxidative stress, abnormal immune cell signalling, and a host of other mechanisms that precipitate adverse functional and structural changes. This syndrome has many complex physiologic, biochemical, and hormonal abnormalities and its pathophysiology is not fully understood. The possible mechanisms include reduced kidney perfusion due to decreased forward flow, increased right ventricular and venous pressure, and neurohormonal adaptations. Assessment of biomarkers are valuable clinical strategies to screen and detect disease, assist in diagnosis, assess prognosis, and predict recovery or progression to chronic disease or even death. Reduced kidney function is associated with increased mortality in such patients. Treatment options include inotropic medications; diuretics; ultrafiltration; and medications, such as β-blockers, inhibitors of the renin-angiotensinaldosterone system, and more novel treatments. Recent observational studies suggest that treatments that result in a decrease in venous pressure and lead to haemoconcentration may be associated with improved outcomes.

Case Diagnosis: Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS) was diagnosed in a female with ataxia, paresthesia, and dysmetria confirmed with CSF analysis. Case Description: We present a case about a 34-year-old female that developed GBS two weeks after receiving the first dose of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine. Setting: The diagnosis was made in the acute hospital, and then treatment continued in the acute rehabilitation setting. Assessment/Results: Results from the CSF analysis were conclusive with the physical presentation, and the patient was started on the proper treatment protocol, which included IVIG and high-dose steroids. She continually progressed during her rehabilitation period, and an EMG and NCS were scheduled as an outpatient for better confirmation. Conclusion: It is important to note a patient’s past medical history in the acute rehabilitation setting, including any recent vaccinations. This is because the VAERS requires that all healthcare professionals report adverse events, and all vaccine manufacturers must disclose any adverse events reported to them.

Un fraile viene a comer. La influencia de san Pedro de Alcántara (1499-1562) entre la aristocracia de la villa y Corte de Madrid
Authors: Gómez José Antonio
Published: June 2022

This historical research tries to analyze the influence exerted by Saint Peter of Alcantara among the peninsular nobility in the middle of the 16th century. The founder of the province of Saint Joseph of the Discalced Franciscans, ate at the table of many men and women of the aristocracy of Extremadura. At the beginning of the 17th century, when transferred to the Court of Philip III, they accurately remembered those shared meals in their ancestral homes and the devotion professed by their parents, who acted as hosts. In 1616 and 1618, some testified in the cause for his canonization. In them, the image of Saint Peter remained very much alive, the austerity of his life, the poverty of his clothes, the frugality of his meals, the fleeting nature of his sleep. In some cases, the fame of sanctity and miracles of the penitent reached other noble houses in Madrid. In their need, they also entrusted themselves, trusting in his intercession, as they indicated in the testimonial evidence of the canonical investigation.

Large volume, random fluctuations and distractive patterns in raw price data lead to overfitting in stock price prediction. Thus research papers in this area suffer from multiple limitations: Very short prediction period from one day to one week, consideration of few stocks only instead of whole of stock market spectrum, exploration of more suitable machine learning algorithms. By overcoming the problems of raw data these limitations can be conquered. Proposed work uses a supervised machine learning approach on statistically learned macro features obtained from gist of input data, free from raw data drawbacks, to predict the price band for the upcoming month and a half for almost all NIFTY50 stocks. The predicted bands are tested for precision in comparison with actual stock price bands. Motivating outcomes so obtained were used for automated sensing of opportunity to make buy / sell / wait decision using fuzzy logic. The results show that the price bands are quite accurate with reasonable tolerance. Monetization capability of the predicted bands has also been enhanced by using an opportunity controller k.

The prediction of lifestyle diseases is a vital domain in healthcare informatics research. This task is primarily achieved using the widely available machine learning algorithms. However, the highdimensionality of data amplifies the computation complexity and significantly reduces the models’ efficiency. Conspicuously, we presented a multi-disease prediction strategy for intelligent decision support using ensemble learning. The proposed work leverages genetic algorithm-based recursive feature elimination and AdaBoost to predict two prominent lifestyle diseases. Alongside the proposed approach, various benchmark machine learning techniques are also trained and validated using selected features under k-fold cross-validation. The results reveal the effectiveness of the proposed methodology in predicting multiple diseases in comparison to past works.

Using big data-assisted machine learning methods in animal science has received increasing attention in recent years since they extract useful insights from large-scale animal datasets. Especially, animal activity recognition is the task of identifying the actions performed by animals and can provide rich insight into their health, welfare, reproduction, survival, foraging, and interaction with humans/other animals. This paper aims to propose a new solution for this purpose by building a machine learning model that classifies the actions of horses based on big sensor data. Unlike the previous studies, our study is original in that it compares the accuracies of per-subject (personalized) and cross-subject (generalized) models. It is the first study that especially compares different ensemble learning algorithms for horse activity recognition in terms of classification accuracy, including bagging trees, extremely randomized trees, random forest, extreme gradient boosting, light gradient boosting, gradient boosting, and categorical boosting. The purpose of the study is to classify five horse activities: walking, standing, grazing, galloping, and trotting. The experimental results showed that our solution achieved very good performance (94.62%) on average on a real-world dataset. Furthermore, the results also showed that our method outperformed the state-of-the-art methods on the same dataset.

Published: June 2022

Nowadays, skin conditions affect humans frequently; in fact, they affect people more frequently than other illnesses. Compared to other types of sickness, skin conditions are becoming increasingly common. Dermatology is the branch of biology that deals with identifying and treating conditions that primarily affect the skin. Skin conditions can be brought on by viruses, germs, allergies, and fungi, among other things. Typically, these illnesses cause hidden harm that lowers one's self-esteem and causes sadness. The advancement in medical technology has made it possible to diagnose the disease more quickly but the cost for this technique is more expensive. Because of its unevenness, tone, hairiness, and other mitigating factors, human skin is one of the most unexpected and difficult surfaces to mechanically synthesise and analyse. Consequently, there is a growing need for an automated system that can accurately diagnose skin diseases. In order to classify skin diseases into their main categories, such as melanocytic nevi, melanoma, benign keratosis-like lesions, basal cell carcinoma, actinic keratoses, vascular lesions, and dermatofibroma, a learning model was developed.
The risk of essential fatty acid insufficiency in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases: fatty acid profile of phospholipids in serum and in colon biopsy specimen

Published: June 2022

Introduction

The aim of the study was to address the fatty acid (FA) status and its relationship with disease activity in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

Material and methods

FA levels of phospholipids fraction in serum and colon-biopsy specimen were measured in 17 patients with IBD.

Results

A negative correlation between the histological activity of inflammation of the disease and the ratio of polyunsaturated FAs/no polyunsaturated FAs was observed. Moreover, the level of that ratio was lower in patients with IBDs as compared to control.

Conclusions

The FA profile in serum and in colon-biopsy specimen in patients with IBD is characteristic for essential fatty acid insufficiency.

Published: June 2022

Introdução: Os medicamentos anti-inflamatórios não esteroides (AINEs) pertencem a uma classe de fármacos amplamente prescritos em todo o mundo, sendo no Brasil, os mais utilizados por automedicação. A automedicação tem se tornado um hábito comum na vida das pessoas, tanto pelo pouco conhecimento dos efeitos colaterais, quanto pelas condições financeiras necessárias para uma consulta médica. No entanto, pacientes desconsideram os riscos de efeitos colaterais devido ao uso incorreto desses medicamentos. Objetivo: abordar o perfil de utilização de AINEs, com prescrição, com associação a outros fármacos e sem prescrição médica, em uma farmácia comunitária do Oeste do Paraná. Metodologia: A pesquisa foi realizada no período de abril a junho de 2020, onde os indivíduos participantes eram maiores de 18 anos. Os dados foram colhidos no sistema de automação da farmácia. Resultados: No período avaliado, 398 pessoas compraram medicamento com receita médica, 150 com receita odontológica, 2000 sem prescrição, e 800 por indicação do balconista da farmácia. Dentre os pacientes com receita, 70% apresentavam associação a outros fármacos. Já aqueles que compraram sem prescrição, 70% não quiseram qualquer orientação farmacêutica e outros 20% aceitaram orientação farmacêutica, porém relataram que não as seguiriam; somente 10% disseram que seguiriam as orientações repassadas. Os principais efeitos colaterais relatados pelos indivíduos foram: náuseas, tonturas, dores no estômago e insônia. Conclusão: O farmacêutico possui um papel fundamental na avaliação do paciente, uma vez que ele é o profissional capacitado a dispensar corretamente os medicamentos, e a prestar orientações adequadas sobre o uso consciente e correto.
Unwanted Memories of (the Wars of)
the 1990s
Authors: Fridman Orli
Published: June 2022

This chapter begins by placing the discussion of memories of the wars of
the 1990s in the broader context of experiences and memories of everyday
life in Serbia at the time. These are largely unwanted memories that people
would rather avoid, and yet often reference in passing, especially in the
context of unexpected disruptions to their daily routine. The chapter
analyses how these memoryscapes shape the actions and claims of memory
activists as they critically engage with knowledge about that decade. It
also traces the editing and shaping of the new (post-Yugoslav) calendar
of Serbia and its very limited engagement with the wars of the 1990s.
Introduction
Authors: Fridman Orli
Published: June 2022

This chapter introduces the book’s inquiries into the mnemonic practices
and claims of memory activists as they engage with remembrance and
alternative knowledge production of otherwise silenced and unwanted
pasts. It presents a framework for the analysis of non-state commemorations
as alternative commemorative events, as they become apparent in the
aftermath of war and violence. By utilizing Ann Rigney’s memory-activism
nexus (2018), it examines the ways in which memory activists, as local
actors, claim agency and space by establishing alternative commemorative
events marked on alternative calendars. Finally, the methodological
approach of this study is discussed, and a generational lens is proposed as
a means of delving deeper into the shifts in and nuances of the practices
of memory activists.
Scaling the World: Allegory of Coinage
and Monetary Governance in the Dutch
Republic
Authors: Felten Sebastian , Stevenson Stewart Jessica
Published: June 2022

Attributed to Romeyn de Hooghe, Allegory of Coinage envisions the global horizons
of Dutch monetary governance. The central female personification, Moneta
of Holland, receives tributaries from Africa, America, and Asia. Bearing sacks
of silver and gold, these male laborers appear within a hybrid landscape that
visually relates the technologies for mining and refining precious metals to the
crafts of minting and assaying specie. Likely made to decorate the offices of the
Masters-General of the Mints, who supervised mints in the Dutch Republic,
Allegory of Coinage encouraged these officials to perceive how their governance
of the material production of coins was embedded in a global division of labour
for sourcing and distributing precious metals.
Market Stall in Batavia: Money, Value, and
Uncertainty in the Age of Global Trade
Authors: Ho Angela
Published: June 2022

This chapter explores how A Market Stall in Batavia, recently attributed to Andries
Beeckman, constructs an image of the Dutch East India Company’s colony for an
audience of Dutch burghers. The painting draws on the market setting, familiar
from Netherlandish artistic traditions, to convey associations of profitable
exchange in its depiction of the town in Indonesia. Focusing on the figure of the
Chinese man and the coins in his hands, the chapter argues that these motifs
carried multiple connotations, disrupting attempts at a single, positive reading.
The use of these multivalent elements results in an ambivalent image that, I
contend, offered an apt analogy of the fraught relationship between the Dutch
East India Company and the Dutch economy at large.
Centring the Coin in Jacob Backer’s Woman
with a Coin
Authors: Seaman Natasha
Published: June 2022

The Dutch painter Jacob Backer’s Woman with a Coin (c. 1636) depicts a smiling prostitute,
breasts bared, brandishing a coin. Given the context of the painting, the coin
certainly represents a payment. However, the manner in which the woman holds the
coin – frontally to display its portrait and centrally in the painting – endows the coin
the power of a reagent, stimulating correspondences among the prostitute, the coin,
and, reflexively, the painting itself. Each can be seen to refer to each other through a
network of metaphorical associations related to the value of their beauty and potential
for depreciation, their tendency towards circulation, and the shared qualities of allure.
On Not Being Shallow
Authors: Sieber Patricia
Published: June 2022

This essay treats ‘mixed-register writing’ (typically called ‘vernacular
Chinese’, ‘plain Chinese writing’, baihua 白話) as a hybrid medium that
self-consciously incorporates linguistic elements from different strata
of Literary Sinitic, vernacularized Sinitic, and textualized topolect. The
chapter examines how a commentaried version of the Qing-dynasty
songbook Huajian ji 花箋記 (The Flowery Notepaper, 1713) mediates between
the broadly conceived genre of examination essays written in Literary
Sinitic and popular songbooks written in Literary Cantonese. In reframing
such a compositional process as ‘translation’ subject to different kinds of
norms and purposes, the chapter shows how the deliberately polyvocal
nature of such texts opened a space for literary innovation in China proper
as well as in the broader Sinographic sphere.

The research objectives are: 1. To determine the level of academic anxiety of students before being given group counseling services with systematic desensitization techniques at MTs Negeri 1 Banjarmasin; 2. To determine the level of academic anxiety of students before being given group counseling services with systematic desensitization techniques at MTs Negeri 1 Banjarmasin; and 3. To determine the effectiveness of group counseling with systematic desensitization techniques in reducing student academic anxiety at MTs Negeri 1 Banjarmasin. Furthermore, research results are published in online ISBN Proceedings or Nationally Accredited Scientific Journals. This study used an experimental method (non parametric). The reason the researcher used this experimental pattern was to see the effect of a treatment (Systematic Desensitization Technique Group Counseling) on ​​another variable (Academic Anxiety). Research design is all the processes needed in planning and carrying out research. This research is a quasi-experimental design, using a one group pre-test and post-test design. With the one group pre test and post test design method, this means that the sample is given a test before and after receiving certain treatment, so that the subject is subjected to two measurements. The subjects in this study were students who had a high academic anxiety background at MTs Negeri 1 Banjarmasin.
