The evaluation of the liver structure can be done through invasive and non-invasive imaging methods. Noninvasive methods include abdominal ultrasound, transient hepatic elastography (Fibroscan). biomarkers such as hyaluronic acid (HA), alpha-2 macroglobulin, laminin, fibronectin, Fibroindex or panels such as Fibrotest-actiTest. Liver biopsy, the most invasive method of assessing the structure of the liver and the lesions present, is still indicated in certain reserved cases, when the diagnosis remains uncertain despite all the investigations. Antiviral therapy in Romania for hepatitis B virus includes the administration of pegylated interferon alfa 2a and various nucleoside/nucleotide analogs (ANN): adefovir, entecavir, tenofovir, lamivudine. IFNα is the most effective antiviral treatment in children, regarding the seroconversion of Hbe Ag to anti Hbe Ac and the disappearance of Hbs Ag. Sustained response is defined as maintaining the response to treatment for at least 6 months after its discontinuation.

This research concerns the modelling of human resources as dynamical systems. Generally team work is distributed among the members of the team which have a common goal. However, the complex interactions of the team’s members may lead to successful or unsuccessful completion of the tasks. For scientific research, where international teams may work together on common project, the interaction among team members defines the successful completion of the project. However, the team’s dynamics is a cumbersome one and poses significant challenges. In this research we propose a computational model which models the team’s dynamics as a dynamic systems.

The advancement of digital printing technologies facilitates alternative production methods to print certified reflective foils used to produce the faces of retroreflective traffic signs. Such products are approved and tested for certification in accordance with standards such as SR EN 12899-1:2007, regardless of production methods while the chromaticity and luminance factors are normative to qualify the product. This paper presents a method for process control and quality assurance using measurement devices and tools employed specifically by graphic technology. The core element is the correlation of the reference colour space (CIELAB, D50) with the standard reference from SR EN 12899-1:2007 (CIExyY, D65), also considering the conceptual difference from circular/elliptical tolerances typically used in printing processes and the colour box coordinates defined by the standard.

The recent developments in computer processing has led to the generation of significant amount of data. However, the post-processing of this large amount of data poses significant challenges for the scientific community. A particular issues is the data interpretation, particularly regarding the segregation of valuable data from arbitrary data. Moreover, data classification in subgroups poses further challenges. It has been largely accepted that the analysis of these data sets may be cumbersome. Therefore, efficient and accurate data mining models would enable the analysis if large data-sets. In this research we propose a computational model based on the k-means algorithm, identified as fuzzy clustering algorithm. The use of the fuzzy clustering algorithm reduces the computational time by 72%, when compared with regular computational approaches.

The past two decades have been characterized by profound changes and reallocations of human and material resources, worldwide, with implications in the dynamics of the companies and research institutions. Therefore, nowadays, R&D may involve personnel located at various geophysical locations. In spite of their benefits, these changes raised significant challenges, particularly in terms of integrations, coordination and management of human resources, particularly for R&D teams. Moreover, there are several challenges associated with the new dynamics such, cultural, societal, fundamental organization dissimilarities (i.e., different routines, procedures, goals, and expectations) that exist between partners might complicate managing the projects. Although several factors may affect the development and execution of the project, however, the project management plays a vital role. In this research we analyse the feasibility of a flexible management approach in the sense that it takes into account the management practices already existent and extract the similarities among all the partners involved in the R&D effort.

Re-ordering Faith and Science: Tyson's Project to Reverse the Great Reversal
Authors: Barrigar Chris
Published: February 2023

Theologian Paul Tyson has published a new theology of science. His concern is to address "the great reversal," whereby the early figures in natural philosophy held Christian faith as "first truth" and their scientific findings as "second truth," but over the course of two-and-a-half centuries these became reversed—the findings of science became society's "first truth" and Christian faith became privatized "second truth." Some Christians, particularly those in science-and-religion discussions today, have succumbed to this reversal, making reductionist-materialist science their operational first truth. Tyson critiques the latter, keying on proposals to reinterpret the Fall as nonhistorical. This review summarizes Tyson's argument, identifies valuable aspects to his proposal, and then offers a number of constructive critiques.

Published: February 2023

Objective. The objective of this non-interventional post-marketing clinical trial was to analyze the antihypertensive effect and safety of a fixed combination of perindopril and indapamide in the treatment of unregulated essential hypertension.

Patients and Methods. The prospective clinical trial included patients aged 20 to 75 years with essential hypertension and blood pressure values ≥ 140/90 mmHg at baseline. On the basis of the investigator’s decision, patients received 2 mg perindopril + 0.625 mg indapamide (group 2+0.625) or 4 mg perindopril + 1.25 mg indapamide (group 4+1.25).

Results. The study included 1173 patients (426 patients in group 2+0.625 and 747 patients in group 4+1.25) at 27 investigational centers in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Mean blood pressure values at baseline and visits after nine months were significantly higher in the 4+1.25 group compared to the 2+0.625 group. There was a significant drop in systolic and diastolic blood pressure in both groups. The target values of systolic and diastolic blood pressure, according to the European Society of Cardiology (2018), were reached after nine months of therapy by more than 80% of patients in the 2+0.625 group, and this number was significantly higher compared to the 4+1.25 group where more than 60% of patients reached target values. Newly diagnosed patients had a better response to therapy. The percentage of patients receiving additional antihypertensive therapy decreased by the end of the study. Age, gender and the existence of diabetes mellitus were identified as negative predictors of target blood pressure achievement. The therapy showed a good safety profile.

Conclusion. A fixed combination of perindopril and indapamide was effective and safe in the treatment of unregulated essential hypertension.

Authors: Ozcelik Erdem Rukiye , Dundar Mehmet Akif , Arbag Senanur , Arbag Hamdi , Seker Muzaffer
Published: February 2023

Objective. To describe the anatomy of the lacrimal sac in relation to the lateral nasal wall by cadaver dissection, and to measure the distances of surgically important landmarks from relevant structures for safer and more efficient surgery.

Method. A total of 12 endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) were performed on both sides (right and left) of 6 fresh-frozen cadavers. The distances of the lacrimal sac to the posterior edge of the uncinate process, the frontal process of the maxilla, the maxillary ostium, the nasal vestibule, the middle turbinate attachment and the inferior turbinate were measured. In addition, the width and length of the lacrimal sac were measured.

Results. The mean width and length of the lacrimal sac were 5.6 mm and 11.1 mm, respectively. The lacrimal sac was located at 15.2 mm from the posterior edge of the uncinate process, at 35.5 mm from the nasal vestibule, at 13.5 mm from the maxillary ostium, at 12.2 mm from the frontal process of the maxilla, at 8.7 mm from the middle turbinate attachment, and at 7.3 mm from the inferior turbinate.

Conclusion. This study provides additional measurements regarding the lacrimal sac and its relationships with nearby landmarks for use in endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy. The distances of the lacrimal sac to the nasal vestibule, the uncinate process and the frontal process of the maxilla are not as reliable as the middle turbinate attachment for predicting the anatomic localization of the lacrimal sac during DCR.

Authors: Lyrtzis Christos , Tsakotos George , Kostares Michael , Piagkou Maria , Mariorakis Chrysovalantis , Natsis Konstantinos
Published: February 2023

Objective. The current study records the prevalence of the accessory foramen, located posterior to the transverse foramen (TF), the so-called the retrotransverse foramen (RTF), its morphometry, exact location, and coexistence with ossified posterior bridges. Additionally, factors associated with the length of the RTF are investigated.

Materials. One-hundred and forty-one dried atlas vertebrae were examined.

Results. Thirty-seven out of the 141 vertebrae (26.2%) had at least one RTF. The RTF was unilateral in 67.6% and bilateral in 32.4%. The mean RTF anteroposterior diameter (length) was 4.2±1.4 mm on the right and 3.8±1.0 mm on the left side. The mean RTF laterolateral diameter (width) was 2.6±1.2 mm on the right and 2.5±0.8 mm on the left side. Both dimensions were symmetrical. The RTF was symmetrically located from the TF, at a mean distance of 4.6±1.1 mm on the right and of 4.5±0.9 mm on the left side. For the given TF-RTF distance, laterality, and presence of posterior bridges, each mm increase in the RTF width was associated with a 0.74 mm increase in the relevant length.

Conclusion. The estimated prevalence was higher than most of those reported in other studies. However, the between-studies prevalence varies to a significant degree. Hence, a systematic review and meta-analysis should be performed to identify a more precise estimate due to the clinical importance of the RTF.

Authors: Mujaković Aida , Kovačević Tijana , Begić Edin , Fajkić Almir , Barić Goran , Jamakosmanović Anida , Kovačević Peđa
Published: February 2023

Objective. To identify the type of the non-invasive ventilatory treatment for patients diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), with respiratory status deteriorated by COVID-19 pneumonia, and in need of treatment in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU).

Materials and Methods. This cross-sectional study was conducted over a one-year period in the medical intensive care units of two hospitals. As the patients’ clinical condition deteriorated and the parameters of the arterial blood gas (ABG) analysis worsened, oxygen support was applied via a high flow nasal cannula (HFNC) or by non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV). According to the control values of the arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) and the parameters of ABG, the patients were enabled to be transferred between the two types of non-invasive ventilatory support. The primary outcome was the length of hospital stay, while secondary outcomes were the rate of intubation, the mortality rate, and respiratory supportfree days.

Results. Out of 21 critical patients with COPD and COVID-19, 11 (52.4%) were initially treated with NPPV and 10 (47.6%) with HFNC. The ages (67±9.79 in NPPV group vs. 70.10±10.25 in HFNC group) and severity of illness (SOFA score 5 (3.5) in NPPV group vs. 5 (2.8) in HFNC group) were similar between the two groups. Switching the mode of respiratory support was more common in NPPV (58.3% in survivor group vs. 41.7% in non-survivor group). Patients treated with NPPV compared to HFNC had a nominally longer length of stay (15 (11) vs. 11.5 (4.25)), and higher risk of intubation (66.7% vs. 33.3%) and mortality (66.7% vs. 33.3%), but the comparisons did not reach statistical significance. Survivors had significantly longer Medical Intensive Care Unit and hospital stays, but significantly lower FiO2 (0.60 vs.1) and higher values of PaO2 /FiO2 (78(32.4) vs. 56.3(17.8)) than non-survivors. All patients were treated with corticosteroids, and the duration of treatment was similar between groups.

Conclusion. In critically ill patients with COPD and COVID-19, both HFNC and NPPV were commonly used as the initial mode of ventilation. Switching to a different mode and adverse patient outcomes were more frequent in patients initially treated with NPPV. Survivors had higher values of PaO2 /FiO2 than non-survivors.

Published: February 2023

Objective. The aim of the work was to show a Cutaneous Ciliated Cyst (CCC) in an unusual location in a 16-month-old girl.

Case Report. We present the case of a 16-month otherwise healthy girl presented to our hospital, with a report of a palpable mass in the left suprascapular region. Physical examination revealed a soft-textured, fluctuating, mobile and painless entity, with no further indications of local inflammation. The mass was totally excised, under general anesthesia, for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. According to the histopathological findings, the cystic lesion was covered by a pseudostratified ciliary epithelium, resembling the epithelium of a normal fallopian tube, surrounded by a smooth muscle layer. Immunohistochemical studies identified the cyst epithelium as having cytokeratin (CKAE1/AE3) expression, despite the negative immunostaining findings on Estrogen and Progesterone Receptors.

Conclusion. Our case report concerns a CCC in an unusual position, in the suprascapular area. After a thorough review of the international literature, we concluded that this is the second published case regarding this specific location. To our knowledge our patient is the youngest ever diagnosed with CCC.

Authors: Gunawan Ari
Published: February 2023

This study aims to readiness of social sciences teachers for the implementation of The Merdeka Belajar Curriculum. The Merdeka Belajar Curriculum is a curriculum renewal based on increasingly advanced technology and its use during the Covid-19 pandemic. The Merdeka Belajar Curriculum requires various elements of education to adapt to it. The independent curriculum is a substitute for the 2013 curriculum. The idea of developing The Merdeka Belajar Curriculum stems from several shortcomings in the 2013 curriculum, including too dense material, rigid implementation, and boring material. This demands readiness for teachers to implement an independent curriculum. Currently, there are still many teachers who are confused about implementing the curriculum. Teachers need to know what readiness is needed when implementing The Merdeka Belajar Curriculum in the learning process at school and the form of assessment used. This paper uses a literature study method using various sources, books, and scientific articles from journals to search for theories and supporting data. The results showed that the teacher's readiness showed an adequate level. It can be seen from their understanding, the sources of information used, the planning and implementation processes, and their assessment of the four Merdeka Belajar policies that have been implemented properly.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk Kesiapan Guru Ilmu Pengetahuan Sosial Terhadap Implementasi Kurikulum Merdeka Belajar.

Using Thermodynamics and Simulations to Understand Selectivity and Retention in Gas Chromatography
Authors: Snow Nicholas H.
Published: February 2023

Retention and selectivity in gas chromatography (GC) occur because of the thermodynamics of the phase transition from the vapor phase following sample injection to the solution phase of being dissolved in the stationary phase. Analytes then move along the column because the vapor phase is flowing. In this installment, we quickly review the basic thermodynamics underlying separation in GC, and we see how this impacts selectivity and retention. Last month, we saw how seemingly large differences in column polarity may still generate little, or even the opposite, effect on retention and generate confusion and difficulty in method development. This month, we explore this challenge more in-depth using thermodynamics and a freely available online GC simulator.

Authors: Stoll Dwight R.
Published: February 2023

When high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) users are confronted with questions about how to improve upon the performance of an existing or recently developed method, there are many technological options to consider. This series offers guidance for a systematic approach to method improvement that can save time and resources and likely produce more robust methods. Part II explains options adjusting selectivity (peak spacing or elution pattern) when dealing with relatively simple mixtures—which are not always easy to separate—with a focus on reversed-phase LC (RPLC) separations.

Aim: The study is aimed at comparing the different method of diagnosing plasmodium parasite and typhoid fever and also to know the most effective method of diagnosis.

Methods: The different diagnostic method of analyzing malaria and typhoid were compared by using blood and stool samples of patients from Angwan Rogo community FCT, Abuja. The diagnostic method used for the analysis of malaria were Rapid diagnostic test kit (RDT) and microscopy diagnostic method, which are Field stain and Giemsa stain. The positivity rate of RDT was (12%), Field stain (88%) and Giemsa stain (94%).  Typhoid fever was diagnosed using widal test and stool culture test. The results showed that age group 1-10 had the highest malaria prevalence of 70% followed by age group 21-30 with prevalence of 10%. The positive result for typhoid fever widal test is 63.3% while for stool culture is 90%.

Conclusion: The result of the study shows that children are more prevalent to malaria. Therefore, laboratory personnels should not depend solely on widal test, but rather they should employ other diagnostic method such as stool culture which can differentiate salmonella infections from other infections for more diagnostic test result.

In diagnosis of analysing malaria and typhoid, microscopy and stool culture are more accurate and reliable.

This conceptual paper proposes a new framework for ensuring Pakistani SMEs' sustainable survival. SME owners always strive to survive in the long run, but most SMEs cannot sustain themselves due to resource constraints. In the ensuing survival of SMEs, the role of management accounting is critical. Management accounting provides financial and non-financial information for planning, controlling and decision-making. This information can persuade SME owners to think in a strategic way which can enhance their strategic thinking. Arguably, management accounting can cognitively engage SME owners by enhancing their strategic thinking, leading SMEs to enhance sustainable survival. Based on these arguments, a conceptual framework has been proposed in which strategic thinking mediates the relationship between management accounting systems and sustainable survival. This conceptual paper has endeavored to advance the understanding of strategic thinking in management accounting scholarship. Furthermore, this paper has also provided practical guidelines for SME owners to concentrate on sustainable survival by developing management accounting systems and focusing on strategic thinking.

Scorpionic accidents have high morbidity and mortality in children under 5 years old, a condition that has increased in Presidente Prudente in the last two decades. The study aimed to analyze the spatial distribution of scorpionism in Presidente Prudente and build hypothesis of correlation between the pattern found and socioeconomic and environmental variables. This is an ecological study carried out by analyzing the medical records of children and adolescents up to 18 years old, treated at the Regional Hospital between 2015 and 2020, and victims of scorpion accidents. For the elaboration of maps, geographic coordinates of the addresses where accidents occurred were obtained. To evaluate the maps and determine the pattern of spatial distribution, statistical analysis tools were used. The spatial distribution was configured in an agglomerated and non-random pattern, with three foci of greater incidence in the urban perimeter of the municipality. The identification of foci allows the implementation of specific and localized preventive actions, enabling greater effectiveness in the use of public resources.
