Desfiles, rainhas e dança: manifestações negras como espaço de reivindicações e afirmação
Authors: Vieira Filho Raphael Rodrigues
Published: May 2019

Nas últimas décadas, as manifestações populares vêm se fortalecendo no âmbito social e, também, como campo de pesquisas acadêmicas, principalmente na área de Ciências Humanas. O campo da Educação tem se interessado e produzido pesquisas envolvendo manifestações populares, e muitos pesquisadores têm utilizado pensadores pós-coloniais como base dos trabalhos. Esse texto se insere nesta linha, procurando analisar manifestações culturais negras como espaço de crítica social, reivindicação e afirmação negra. As fontes utilizadas foram colhidas de jornais diários e bibliografia de época sobre Salvador, BA, do final do século XIX até a metade do XX. Os dados e informações foram organizados com base nas fichas de leitura e transcrições, e foram analisados seguindo a metodologia de análise documental. As manifestações culturais negras trazem em seu bojo aspectos de uma tradição seletiva, mas também aspectos incorporados ou adaptados, promovendo uma intrincada rede de signos. Percebemos, nas reivindicações, indicadores de um confronto com as autoridades e elites ao longo do tempo, além da construção e fortalecimento de ser negro. Este artigo é a primeira sistematização de dados de uma pesquisa sobre manifestações culturais em Salvador e aponta para a importância de ampliarmos os dados para as várias formas de transmissão de conhecimentos dessas manifestações, podendo assim contribuir com dados para pesquisas nas mais diversas áreas do conhecimento.

Published: May 2019

Amaç: Yönetim Bilişim Sistemleri (YBS) alanında
başarılı mezunların tanımlanabilmesi için işletmeler tarafından işe alım
sürecinde aranan yetkinlikleri nicel araştırma yöntemi ile belirlemektir.
Araştırma sonucunda elde edilen bulgular doğrultusunda bölüm profillerinin ve
eğitim programlarının sektörle uyumlu hale gelmesi, bu alandan mezun olan
bireylerin istihdam olanaklarına katkı sağlanması hedeflenmektedir. Yöntem: Çalışmada nicel araştırma yöntemi kullanılmış
olup, YBS bölümünden mezun olmuş ve sektör çalışanı 272 mezuna anket
uygulanmıştır. Katılımcılar sahip oldukları yetkinlik düzeylerini 5’li likert
tipi ölçek yapısında değerlendirmiştir. Yapılan anket sonucu değerlendirilen 53
ifadenin faktör yapısını incelemek için yapılan faktör analizi sonucunda yetkinlikler
sosyal yetkinlik, yönetsel yetkinlik, temel teknik yetkinlik ve temel yetkinlik
olmak üzere dört kategoride değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgular: Çalışmada elde edilen bulguların analizi
sonucunda mezunların sahip oldukları kişisel ve kişilerarası yetkinliklerini
kapsayan sosyal yetkinlik düzeyleri diğer sahip oldukları yetkinliklerin
ortalamalarından yüksek çıkmıştır. Yetkinlik ifadelerinden en önemli üç
ifadenin sosyal yetkinlik türünde 1) kendisine verilen görevleri yerine
getirme, 2) yeni beceri ve kavramları öğrenme, 3) başkalarını dinlemek olduğu
görülmektedir. Hipotez testleri sonucunda; mezunların sahip oldukları teknik
yetkinliklerinin; cinsiyet değişkenine, mevcut iş pozisyonlarında terfi
etmelerine, sektör deneyim sürelerine, gelir seviyelerine göre anlamlı bir
şekilde farklılaştığı görülmüştür. Yönetsel yetkinlik düzeylerinin lisans ve
yüksek lisans eğitim seviyelerine göre farklılık gösterdiği ve iş pozisyonunda
terfi alanların yönetsel yetkinlik türünde daha yüksek ortalamaya sahip olduğu
görülmüştür. Mezunların gelir seviyeleri ve deneyimleri arasında anlamlı bir
ilişki olduğu görülmüş, staj deneyimine sahip olmalarının ve gelir
seviyelerinin herhangi bir yetkinlik türü için farklılık göstermediği
görülmüştür.

Sonuç: Araştırmada yer alan bu dört yetkinlik
türünün katılımcılar tarafından derecelendirilmesi sonucu hesaplanan
ortalamalardan en yükseğinin sosyal yetkinlik türüne ait olduğu, ikinci sırada
yönetsel yetkinlik, üçüncü olarak temel teknik yetkinlik ve son olarak teknik
yetkinlik türü olduğu görülmüştür. Mezunların demografik özelliklerinin değişkenlik
gösterdiği göz önünde bulundurulursa sosyal yetkinlikler YBS bölümü mezunlarının
istihdam edilebilmesi için sahip olunması gereken en temel yetkinlik olarak
değerlendirilmektedir. Her ne kadar Türkiye’deki diğer bölümlere kıyasla daha
az mezun vermiş ve yeni bir bölüm olsa da sektörde farklılaşmak için teknik
yetkinlik gerektiren konularda öğrenmeyi öğrenme bilincinde kendilerini yetkin hale
getirmeleri gerekmektedir. Eğitim programlarının müfredatlarında da bu teknik
konulara yer verilmeli ve eğitim müfredatları sosyal ve yönetsel yetkinlikleri
destekleyici dersler ile dengeli bir şekilde planlanmalıdır.

Estimating Factors Determining Emulsification Capability of Surfactant-Like Peptide with Coarse-Grained Molecular Dynamics Simulation
Authors: Wijaya Tegar , Hertadi Rukman
Published: May 2019

The ability of surfactant-like peptides to emulsify oil has become the main focus of our current study. We predicted the ability of a series of surfactant-like peptides (G6D, A6D, M6D, F6D, L6D, V6D, and I6D) to emulsify decane molecules using coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations. A 1-μs simulation of each peptide was carried out at 298 K and 1 atm using MARTINI force field. Simulation system was constructed to consist of 100 peptide molecules, 20 decane molecules, water, antifreeze particles and neutralizing ions in a random configuration. Out of seven tested peptides, M6D, F6D, L6D, V6D, and I6D were able to form emulsion while G6D and A6D self-assembled to order b-strands. A higher hydropathy index of amino acids constituting the hydrophobic tail renders the formation of an emulsion by peptides more likely. By calculating contact number between peptides and decanes, we found that emulsion stability and geometry depends on the structure of amino acids constituting the hydrophobic tail. Analysis of simulation trajectory revealed that emulsions are formed by small nucleation following by fusion to form a bigger emulsion. This study reveals the underlying principle at the molecular level of surfactant peptide ability to form an emulsion with hydrophobic molecules.

Hypersemiotics in Printed Commercial Advertising
Authors: Masrukhi Moh.
Published: May 2019

Commercial advertising is currently created with an imaginative look. The elements are framed in verbal and nonverbal ways, and there is a structure of discourse where the message is hidden by the advertiser or copywriter. This article attempts to explore how advertisements uses verbal and nonverbal elements or signs, the relationships between these elements, and how these elements are interpreted. To understand the meaning and message of the advertisement, the elements will be analyzed with van Dijk’s concepts such as macrostructures (comprehension for complex information), superstructures (the schematic form that organizes the global meaning of a text), and microstructures (text grammars), and to understand signs especially nonverbal sign the hyper-semiotics theory will be used.

El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo analizar, a través de un caso de violencia de género hacia una mujer rural, cómo las instituciones que deberían apoyar a las mujeres no atienden, tienen prejuicios de género y minimizan estas situaciones. Este trabajo forma parte de un proyecto de investigación sobre violencia de género y violencia feminicida en el sur del estado de Guanajuato que se lleva a cabo en comunidades rurales del sur del estado de Guanajuato. Partimos del supuesto de que las mujeres que se encuentran en situaciones de violencia pueden ser presionadas tanto por sus familiares directos, por sus parejas y por instituciones gubernamentales para que no denuncien hechos de violencia de género y, en caso de hacerlo, levantar las demandas y continuar con esa situación que puede llevarlas a la muerte.
Garcilaso y los orígenes del Garcilasismo: el papel de los comentarios reales en el desarrollo del imaginario nacional peruano
Authors: Mazzotti José Antonio
Published: May 2019

Como es de común dominio, la obra y figura del Inca Garcilaso han dado motivo a numerosas interpretaciones. Desde elogios superlativos hasta una cada vez más galopante desconfianza -sobre todo desde fines del siglo XIX-, el Inca Garcilaso ha servido para emprender todo tipo de batalla ideológica, llámese hispanista, indigenista, o mesticista. Muchas de estas polémicas trascienden ampliamente el marco de la crítica literaria y, en ese sentido, el estatuto que Garcilaso tiene como historiador ha servido de punto de partida para imaginar un pasado cultural y utilizarlo como fórmula de construcción de un futuro no menos imaginario.
La economía espiritual del convento de Santa Clara de Santafé de Bogotá, siglos XVII y XVIII
Authors: Toquica Clavijo María Constanza
Published: May 2019

El 13 de enero de 1625, en Santafé, el arzobispo Fernando Arias de Ugarte firmó la escritura de fundación del convento de Santa Clara, concebido por él como una obra pía para doncellas virtuosas, honradas y de limpia sangre. Para ello destinó 40 mil patacones que se erigirían en "bienes espirituales".2 Aunque explícitamente fue fundado para la protección de las doncellas y la alabanza de Dios, el convento desarrolló además de funciones sociales y religiosas, importantes funciones económicas como institución de crédito.
Bases para una nueva historia del patrimonio cultural: un estudio de caso en Santafé de Bogotá
Authors: Therrien Monika
Published: May 2019

Los recientes proyectos de restauración en monumentos y del patrimonio urbano en general, se han convertido en otro recurso para la investigación histórica, que por su perspectiva interdisciplinaria (iconografía, historia, arquitectura o arqueología) permiten obtener información que no se sustenta en una única fuente de datos (estilos y tipos edilicios, pintura mural, documentos o material cultural) y pueden llegar, de esta manera, a resultados basados en el contraste más que en la supremacía de una disciplina. Aunque en la mayoría de los casos la declaratoria de monumentos se esgrimió desde pequeños y selectos grupos de la élite, de acuerdo con sus propios intereses (políticos, intelectuales o culturales) y como soporte para legitimarse a sí mismos, el carácter interdisciplinario de los actuales estudios de los monumentos le resta fuerza a los argumentos que asocian a estos bienes, y a la mayor parte del patrimonio histórico, con un sector hegemónico de la sociedad de cierta época. Con las distintas perspectivas disciplinarias es posible recuperar tras el patrimonio, no sólo la historia de los "personajes" o grupos dominantes, sino de aquello que fue excluido o desconocido, las huellas de los que dejaron su rastro en otro tipo de evidencias materiales, como se mostrará en el presente estudio histórico, arqueológico y arquitectónico.
República sin ciudadanos

En el Perú nadie se definiría como racista. Sin embargo, las categorías raciales no sólo tiñen sino que a veces condicionan nuestra percepción social. Están presentes en la conformación de grupos profesionales, en los mensajes que transmiten los medios de comunicación o en los llamados concursas de belleza, para mencionar algunos ejemplos cotidianos. Pocos han reparado en el contenido racista de una categoría tan usual en los recuentos censales como es la de "analfabeto", para clasificar así -como un grupo inferior y menospreciado-, a quienes ignoran el castellano.

Une ébauche de protection sociale en Nouvelle-Grenade À la fin de Ľépoque coloniale (1780-1819)
Authors: Chenu Jeanne
Published: May 2019

El estudio de dos legajos encontrados en el Archivo de Indias de Sevilla permite analizar algunos aspectos de la condición social del funcinamiento del rango medio en la Nueva Granada y de las dificultades vividas por las familias después de su muerte. La aplicación de una legislación que empezaba a instaurarse en la Península encontró numerosas dificultades.

La utilización de los fondos vacantes del arzobispado de Santa Fe tiende a ser sustituida con ayuda de los Montepíos, iniciando un proceso de pre-secularización de los bienes eclesiásticos en el marco de la ofensiva del derecho de regalía. Se asiste a la afirmación de una conciencia autónoma, la cual, en el mismo seno de la alta administración, reivindica la libre disposición de recursos considerados como propiedad exclusiva de América, a pesar de la política centralizadora de los Borbones.

Authors: Enders Armelle
Published: May 2019

El estudio de la Primera República brasileña (1889-1930) se ha centrado principalmente en el coronelismo, como una forma de privatización del aparato estatal a favor de los gamonales locales y sus clientelas. Sin embargo, se han descuidado otros fenómenos como el bacharelismo, que de acuerdo a algunos autores constituía una de las características más importantes del Brasil de la época.

Los bacharéis (bachilleres graduados en derecho) pertenecían a una minoría de brasileños que recibieron uina formación superior y ocupaban altos puestos en el estado. El bacharelismo llegó también a significar toda una cultura caracterizada por el uso de la retórica, las humanidades clásicas y la falta de conocimientos sobre la realidad nacional.

El artículo analiza el recorrido de los bacharéis, desde los últimos años del Imperio hasta el final de la Primera República, con el fin de evaluar su peso dentro de la cultura brasileña.

Spirituality as a dimension of human beings and natural systems, sustainability through the consciousness of general ecology and transdisciplinary as a transformative experience that allows the inclusion of spiritual dimension in our aim for creating sustainable futures. Our dialogue with the popular traditions and cosmology of ancient Mesoamerican Philosophy is a core in the relationship between spirituality and transdisciplinary.
From a Disciplinary to a Transdisciplinary Vision of the University: A Space of Knowledge, Culture, Art, Spirituality, and Life
Authors: Adame Domingo
Published: May 2019

How does one understand the University situation today?  Is the disciplinary paradigm viable?  What are the consequences of this paradigm? In my paper, I give one answer to these questions and review, from my own academic experience in a Mexican University (Veracruzana University), strategies like Complex Thought (Edgar Morin) and Transdisciplinarity (Basarab Nicolescu) to af- firm the urgency of moving from a one-disciplinary vision to another–transdisciplinary. I maintain that only with this change will the University, especially in Latin-America, be able to offer an integral education in which both professors and students may solve real-world problems effectively and affectively. Only in this way will the University contribute to a genuine social transformation
Place and Transdisciplinarity
Authors: McGregor Sue L. T.
Published: May 2019

This paper tendered a brief exploration of the synergy between place studies and transdisciplinarity.  After describing the main tenets of transdisciplinarity and of place studies, a discussion teased out eight lines of synergy between the two approaches, each striving to ensure voices and perspectives are heard from different places during the solving of complex human problems. Both approaches strive to integrate many levels of truth while generating new knowledge or engaging in place- learning, place-making, even world-making. Place- conscious transdisciplinarians can be sensitive to insights gained from respecting the role of place in solving the problems of the world. They can scaffold TD ontology, logic, epistemology, and axiology with dimensions and dynamics of place.
The Need for Transdisciplinarity in Higher Education in a Globalized World
Authors: Nicolescu Basarab
Published: May 2019

A viable education can only be an integral education of the human being. Transdisciplinary education is founded on the inexhaustible richness of the scientific spirit which is based on questioning and of the refusal of all a priori answers and all certitude contradictory to the facts. At the same time, it revalues the role of the deeply rooted intuition, of the imaginary, of sensitivity, and of the body in the transmission of knowledge. It is only in this way that the society of the twenty-first century can reconcile effectivity and respect for the potentiality of every human being. The transdisciplinary approach will be an indispensable complement to the disciplinary approach because it will mean the emergence of continually connected beings, who are able to adapt themselves to the changing exigencies of professional life, and who are endowed with permanent flexibility which is always oriented towards the actualization of their interior potentialities. If the University intends to be a valid actor in sustainable development it has first to recognize the emergence of a new type of knowledge: transdisciplinary knowledge. The new production of knowledge implies a necessary multidimensional opening of the process of learning: towards civil society; towards cyber-space-time; towards the aim of universality; towards a redefinition of the values governing its own existence.

Published: May 2019

OBJECTIVE

To evaluate radiation exposure of dogs and cats undergoing procedures requiring intraoperative fluoroscopy and for operators performing those procedures.

SAMPLE

360 fluoroscopic procedures performed at 2 academic institutions between 2012 and 2015.

PROCEDURES

Fluoroscopic procedures were classified as vascular, urinary, respiratory, cardiac, gastrointestinal, and orthopedic. Fluoroscopy operators were classified as interventional radiology-trained clinicians, orthopedic surgeons, soft tissue surgeons, internists, and cardiologists. Total radiation exposure in milligrays and total fluoroscopy time in minutes were obtained from dose reports for 4 C-arm units. Kruskal-Wallis equality of populations rank tests and Dunn pairwise comparisons were used to compare differences in time and exposure among procedures and operators.

RESULTS

Fluoroscopy time (median, 35.80 minutes; range, 0.60 to 84.70 minutes) was significantly greater and radiation exposure (median, 137.00 mGy; range, 3.00 to 617.51 mGy) was significantly higher for vascular procedures than for other procedures. Median total radiation exposure was significantly higher for procedures performed by interventional radiology-trained clinicians (16.10 mGy; range, 0.44 to 617.50 mGy), cardiologists (25.82 mGy; range, 0.33 to 287.45 mGy), and internists (25.24 mGy; range, 3.58 to 185.79 mGy).

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE

Vascular fluoroscopic procedures were associated with significantly longer fluoroscopy time and higher radiation exposure than were other evaluated fluoroscopic procedures. Future studies should focus on quantitative radiation monitoring for patients and operators, importance of operator training, intraoperative safety measures, and protocols for postoperative monitoring of patients.
Evaluation of the use of muscle condition score and ultrasonographic measurements for assessment of muscle mass in dogs
Authors: Freeman Lisa M. , Michel Kathryn E. , Zanghi Brian M. , Vester Boler Brittany M. , Fages Julien
Published: May 2019

OBJECTIVE

To evaluate repeatability and reproducibility of muscle condition score (MCS) in dogs with various degrees of muscle loss; to compare MCS, muscle ultrasonographic measurements, and quantitative magnetic resonance (QMR) measurements; and to identify cutoff values for ultrasonographic measurements of muscle that can be used to identify dogs with cachexia and sarcopenia.

ANIMALS

40 dogs of various age, body condition score (BCS), and MCS.

PROCEDURES

A prospective cross-sectional study was conducted. Body weight, BCS, QMR measurements, thoracic radiographic measurements, and muscle ultrasonographic measurements were assessed once in each dog. The MCS for each dog was assessed 3 separate times by 4 separate raters.

RESULTS

For the MCS, overall κ for interrater agreement was 0.50 and overall κ for intrarater agreement ranged from 0.59 to 0.77. For both interrater and intrarater agreement, κ coefficients were higher for dogs with normal muscle mass and severe muscle loss and lower for dogs with mild and moderate muscle loss. The MCS was significantly correlated with age (r = −0.62), vertebral epaxial muscle score (VEMS; r = 0.71), forelimb epaxial muscle score (FLEMS; r = 0.58), and BCS (r = 0.73), and VEMS was significantly correlated (r = 0.84) with FLEMS. Cutoff values for identification of mild muscle loss determined by use of VEMS and FLEMS were 1.124 and 1.666, respectively.

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE

MCS had substantial repeatability and moderate reproducibility for assessment of muscle mass in dogs. Prospective studies of MCS, VEMS, and FLEMS for assessment of muscle mass in dogs are warranted.
Radiographic evaluation of patellar ligament length after tibial plateau leveling osteotomy in dogs
Authors: Jay Maureen R. , Mattoon John S. , Gilbert Peter J. , Tanaka Ty T. , Beaty Brenda L.
Published: May 2019

OBJECTIVE

To radiographically compare patellar ligament length (PLL) in dogs undergoing tibial plateau leveling osteotomy (TPLO) for unilateral cranial cruciate ligament rupture at preoperative, postoperative, and follow-up evaluations.

ANIMALS

105 dogs that underwent TPLO for unilateral cranial cruciate ligament rupture at a referral veterinary hospital from October 1, 2008, through November 30, 2017.

PROCEDURES

Medical records were reviewed to obtain information on dog signalment, surgical procedure, and radiographically measured PLL at preoperative, postoperative, and follow-up evaluations.

RESULTS

Dogs undergoing TPLO had a shorter PLL at the postoperative and follow-up evaluations, compared with the PLL at the preoperative evaluation. Mean ± SD overall unadjusted PLL decreased significantly by 2.3 ± 3.4% between the preoperative and postoperative evaluation and by 2.8 ± 3.9% between the preoperative and follow-up evaluation. The PLL did not differ significantly between the postoperative and follow-up evaluation; mean PLL decreased by 0.4 ± 3.8% between the postoperative and follow-up evaluation.

CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE

The PLL was shorter after TPLO in dogs, which was similar to changes observed for humans after high tibial osteotomy procedures. Further evaluation of clinical assessments, joint mobility, ultrasonographic assessments, and kinematic results are needed to determine the relevance of the PLL and whether a decrease in ligament length results in decreased mobility and persistent lameness in dogs, as has been reported for humans.

Pasal 4 huruf c Undang-Undang Nomor 21 Tahun 2011 tentang Otoritas Jasa Keuangan disebutkan tujuan OJK agar keseluruhan kegiatan sektor jasa keuangan mampu melindungi konsumen antara lain di bidang usaha asuransi. Aturan lainnya disebutkan dalam Pasal 51 dan Pasal 52 Peraturan OJK Nomor 1 tahun 2013 Tentang Perlindungan Konsumen Sektor Jasa Keuangan disebutkan dalam melindungi konsumen OJK melakukan pengawasan secara langsung maupun tidak langsung terhadap penerapan perlindungan konsumen yang dilakukan pelaku usaha secara berkala. OJK melindungi tertanggung apabila adanya pengaduan dengan hanya memfasilitasi penyelesaian pengaduan sebagaimana diatur dalam Pasal 39 ayat (3) POJK No.1/2013. Upaya yang dilakukan yaitu mempertemukan para pihak untuk mengkaji ulang permasalahan yang timbul atas penolakan klaim. Apabila terjadinya kesepakatan maka kesepakatan dituangkan dalam Akta Kesepakatan. Namun, para pihak dapat menyelesaikan melalui pengadilan atau Badan Mediasi dan Arbitrase Asuransi Indonesia (BMAI) jika tidak tercapainya kesepakatan. Mechanism of Insurance Consumer Protection by the Authority of Financial Services The article 4 (c) of Law No. 21 of 2011 on Financial Services Authority (UU OJK) mentioned that the purpose of Financial Services Authority (OJK) is all of activities from all sector of OJK to be able to protect the consumers and society including insurance business sector. The other regulation which is mentioned in article 51 and article 52 of the regulation of Financial Services Authority (OJK) No. 1 of 2013 on the protection for the consumer of financial service sector mentioned that in term of protecting the consumer, the financial services authority (OJK) conducts direct and indirect supervision towards the implementation of consumer protection which is done by the business actors regularly. OJK protects the insured parties if there is a complaint by only facilitating the settlement of complaints as stipulated in Article 39 paragraph (3) POJK No.1 / 2013. The effort which is conducted is that to bring the parties together to review the problems arising from the rejection of claims. If an agreement occurs, the agreement should be stated in the deed of agreement. However, the parties could do the settlement through the court or the Indonesian Insurance Mediation and Arbitration Board (BMAI) if no agreement is reached.
Tumor-like lung lesion revealing Goodpasture’s syndrome in an elderly patient: a case report
Authors: Ariba Yosra Ben , Fekih Yosra , Hamdi Mohamed Salah , Labidi Jannet , Louzir Bassem
Published: May 2019

Background:

Pulmonary involvement in Goodpasture
’
s syndrome is exceptionally isolated without the renal impairment. Usual lung damage includes alveolar hemorrhage resulting in pulmonary-renal syndrome. Isolated and atypical lung involvement can precede kidneys damage.

Case Presentation:

We report a case of an 80 year-old man admitted for dyspnea related to a tumor-like lung lesion and we were unable to confirm the malignant nature. Three months later, the patient presented acute renal failure with rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis leading to the diagnosis of anti-glomerular basement membrane disease, while the lung lesion remained stable. He received corticosteroid and immunosuppressive therapy with partially favorable renal outcome and complete regression of the lung lesion.

Conclusion:

Slight modifications of the urinary sediment should be sought in the case of lung abnormalities. Anti-glomerular basement membrane antibodies must be considered in case of any kidney damage associated with pulmonary involvement even if atypical.
Warthin’s tumor as “Earring” lesion of parotid gland: a case report
Authors: Sharma Shweta , Sharma Bharat Bhushan , Kapur Neeru , Chauhan Shantanu Singh , Aziz Mir Rizwan , Jha Dileep Kumar
Published: May 2019

Background: Earring lesions in the neck region comprises spectrum of different pathologies. Papillary cystadenoma lymphomatosum (PCL) is one of such entity which falls in this spectrum. The cystic lesions of the tail of parotid gland can lead to utter confusion over the diagnosis especially about the site of origin. The exact anatomy has to be delineated for the correct location and the diagnosis. The wrong location and diagnosis can lead to many iatrogenic complications. The cross-sectional imaging plays a pivot role. Computerized tomography and Magnetic Resonance imaging can diagnose the entity fairly to the exact diagnosis.

Case Presentation:

We present 41-year female who presented with this type of pathology with small swelling at the angle of left mandible. She reported because of cosmetic reasons and was subjected to CT and MRI. Coronal sections were able to delineate the lesion in both Contrast enhanced computerized tomography (CECT) and Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The lesion after histological analysis turned out to be Warthin’s tumor.

Conclusion:

Ear ring lesions remain undiagnosed if not evaluated by cross-sectional radiological imaging. The concern becomes greater because of the malignant potential of these neoplasms.
Insulin allergy successfully managed using a combination of multi-hexamer-forming insulin degludec and vildagliptin-a case report
Authors: Hassan Asim , Sifri Saud Al , Jaja Mohammed Bilal , Elamin Mohammed Motasim Ali Haj
Published: May 2019

Background:

With the introduction of recombinant formulations, insulin allergy is rare, occurring in less than 1% of patients treated with insulin. However, it is a serious situation requiring immediate attention, both due to the hypersensitivity reaction and severe life threatening glucose disequilibrium.

Case Presentation:

A case of a 68-year-old male known diabetic for 35 years noticed some generalized itching, accompanied with maculopapular, mixed vasculitic, and bullous lesions. Humalog Mix 50/50 was stopped and patient was started on the different combinations but to no avail. Before insulin desensitization, a trial of degludec (IDeg) was given. Fortunately, the patient tolerated IDeg and vildagliptin, and sugars came under control.

Conclusion:

This combination of multi-hexamer-forming ultra-long-acting insulin plus a DPP4 inhibitor vildagliptin could be an effective combination in controlling blood sugars in the patients who have severe allergy to multiple drugs, including oral hypoglycemic agents and various insulin preparations.
OPTIMALISASI KINERJA SIMPANG PASAR PAGI ARENKA DI KOTA PEKANBARU

ABSTRACTTransportation problem is one of the problem that often encountered in large cities nowadays which one of the city is Pekanbaru. The main factor toward having good quality of transport infrastructure system is the performance of road, particularly the intersection performance as part of the whole road system. Congestion and long queues often occurred in Pekanbaru and mostly at intersections, ie at signalized intersections in the Arenka Market. Thus specific observations conducted on peak hours (peak hours) on the system of the traffic light. In order to measure the intersections performance, this study is using the manual method of Indonesian Highway Capacity, 1997 (MKJI-1997). The analysis method are using intersection capacity analysis, long queues analysis, phase system and delay. The results of the study showed that the performance evaluation existing at the intersection of Arenka Market with the arrangements of phase 4 and cycle time for 147 seconds, was at the range of between E and F. The calculation value of the saturation degree for Hr. Soebrantas street was 0.94 while for Soekarno Hatta street to the North was about 0.93. Based on Indonesian Highway Capacity Manual 1997, for the value of saturation degree (DS) > 0.85, means that the time signal including the road conditions must be reset.ABSTRAKMasalah transportasi merupakan salah satu masalah yang sering dihadapi di kota-kota besar salah satunya adalah Kota Pekanbaru saat ini. Salah satu faktor penting dalam usaha menuju sistem prasarana transportasi yang baik adalah kemampuan kinerja jalan, khususnya kinerja simpang sebagai salah satu bagian dari sistem jalan secara keseluruhan. Permasalahan kemacetan dan antrian yang panjang di Pekanbaru terjadi pada persimpangan, yaitu pada persimpangan bersinyal di Pasar Pagi Arenka Pengamatan khusus dilakukan pada jam-jam puncak (peak hour) pada sistem traffic light pada tersebut. Untuk mengukur kinerja persimpangan dalam penelitian ini menggunakan metode Manual Kapasitas Jalan Indonesia 1997 (MKJI-1997). Analisis yang dilakukan adalah analisis terhadap kapasitas persimpangan, panjang antrian, sistem fase serta tundaan. Data hasil analisis dari hasil evaluasi kinerja Simpang Pasar Pagi Arenka eksisting dengan pengaturan 4 fase dan waktu siklus 147 detik, didapat tingkat pelayanan simpang pasar pagi arenka berkisar dari E s/d F. Nilai perhitungan derajat kejenuhan untuk Jalan Hr. Soebrantas adalah 0,94 sedangkan Jalan Soekarno Hatta arah Utara sebesar 0,93. Menurut sumber Manual Kapasitas Jalan tahun 1997, untuk derajat kejenuhan (DS) > 0,85, maka jalan tersebut harus di atur ulang untuk waktu sinyal maupun kondisi jalannya.
Management of psoriatic arthritis
Authors: Thomas Sumi
Published: May 2019

The treatment of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) makes use of many agents. Most of them are used for the treatment of other forms of inflammatory arthritis or the management of cutaneous manifestations of psoriasis. Although a number of medications are effective in the treatment of both rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and PsA, trials involving some classes of biologic agents indicate that patients with RA and PsA may show different responses to certain drug classes. Treatment of the different elements of PsA includes coordinated interventions to address the major domains of the disease, including peripheral and axial arthritis, enthesitis, dactylitis, and skin and nail involvement.
Economic Citizenship: Is It Worthy Investment?
Authors: AKIN Mustafa Şeref
Published: May 2019

The selling of economic citizenship is expanding and gradually becoming an industry. This paper weighs the cost-benefit analysis of economic citizenship in three aspects, visa-free country (VFC), marginal contribution and investment threshold aspects. The return on investment for the visa-free access is moderate, around 1-2% for a frequent traveler family and 0.2-0.5% for a frequent traveler single. Based on these analyses, unless an investor is a very frequent traveler, investment by citizenship programs are not feasible from visa-free country’s aspect. However, the benefits of acquiring economic citizenship from an EU country can compensate the low return on visa-free access. Under the marginal analysis, we eliminated the redundancy among passports and we calculated the additional benefits of an extra passport. This shows that acquiring a passport from developing countries is not meaningful for the citizens from developed countries. Under the investment threshold analysis, we demonstrated the minimum investment requirement. Some countries might be more advantageous for the return on investment along with citizenship, but they set the investment threshold so high that countries with donation might be more feasible.
Site-Selective Alkoxylation of Benzylic C–H Bonds via Photoredox Catalysis

Published: May 2019

There are relatively few methods that accom- plish the selective alkoxylation of sp3-hybridized C–H bonds, particularly in comparison to the numerous analogous strate- gies for C–N and C–C bond formation. We report a photo- catalytic protocol for the functionalization of benzylic C–H bonds with a wide range of readily available oxygen nucleo- philes. Our strategy merges the photoredox activation of arenes with copper(II)-mediated oxidation of the resulting benzylic radicals, which enables the introduction of benzylic C–O bonds with high site selectivity, chemoselectivity, and functional group tolerance. This method enables the late- stage introduction of complex alkoxy groups into bioactive molecules, providing a practical new tool with potential appli- cations in synthesis and medicinal chemistry.
