Background: Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory process characterized by thickening and hardening of the vascular walls. In many studies, the effect of statin therapy on atherosclerosis has been investigated. The effect of statins on slowing the atherosclerotic process and its clinical results have been revealed.
Aims and Objective: The aims of the study was to investigate the protection of statin in the ascending aorta.
Materials and Methods: The current study examined the presence of atherosclerosis by means of histopathologic evaluation of the tissues which sampled from ascending aorta during the CABG. These two groups of patients were evaluated in terms of the laboratory tests and the presence of atherosclerosis.
Results: There were 43 male (89.6%), and 5 female (10.4%) patients between 39 and 81 years of age were included in the study. There were no statistically significant difference between the patients’ preoperative cardiovascular risk assessments. It was observed that the LDL value of the group using statin was 56 ± 13.66 mg / dl, and the group that did not use was 57 ± 12.97 mg / dl. There were 6 patients (30%) in the statin group and 8 patients (28.6%) in the other group that did not use statin. There were no statistically significant difference in term of atherosclerosis between two groups.
Conclusion: We evaluated the atherosclerosis of ascending aorta in patients using and not using statin. Even though there were no difference in atherosclerosis in large-scale vascular structures with higher flow rates such as ascending aorta, we think that statin reduces possible aortic pathologies by stabilizing the atherosclerotic plaque and reducing the shear stress.

Published: April 2021

Background: Urinary tract Infections (UTIs) are the common infections during pregnancy. About 150 million UTIs occur every year globally, and 30% is attributed to pregnant women.
Aims and Objective: The study was carried out to observe the association with vaginal microbial community imbalance and urinary tract infections among pregnant women.
Materials and Methods: A total of 80 pregnant women were recruited. Of the 80 women, 40 were pregnant with UTI, and the remaining 40 were women without UTI. About 80 vaginal swab samples were collected and transported to INES clinical microbiology laboratory for microbiological analysis. Laboratory techniques including culture, gram stain, and biochemical tests were performed. ANOVA-2 was used for comparison, while chi square (χ2) was used to test for association.
Results: E. coli was predominant among women with UTIs while Lactobacilli predominated among women without UTIs. There was a statistical significance association with vaginal microbial community imbalance and urinary tract infection among pregnant women to Escherichia coli (χ2=9.97, p=0.0015), Staphylococcus epidermidis (χ2=5.12, p=0.023), Proteus spp (χ2=4.96, P=0.025), Citrobacter spp (χ2=32.51, P<0.00001), Streptococcus pyogenes (χ2=5.11, P=0.023), Staphylococcus sapropyticus (χ2=4.3, p=0.038) and Lactobacilli species (χ2=13.7, p=0.00021). The overall association (χ2=94.879, p<0.00001) with all isolated microorganisms and urinary tract infections was statistically significant. The odd ratio of pathogenic microorganisms to non-pathogenic was OR=4.98>1. For ANOVA-2, there was a higher microbial variation or differences among women with UTIs (F=7.241842) compared to women without UTIs (F= 4.71 ) in pregnancy trimesters.
Conclusion: Pregnancy is associated with vaginal microbial community imbalances which predispose women to urinary tract infections. Pregnant women should seek for medical assistance during pregnancy for early detection of urinary tract infections.

Published: April 2021

Middle Miocene to early Pleistocene sedimentary sequence deposited in the foreland basin of the Himalaya is represented by the Siwalik Group. In the present study area the Siwalik Group extends in a NW-SE direction and well-exposed. Forty­four sandstone samples were studied for texture, fabric and composition in order to assess their petrographic properties and variation trends of these properties in stratigraphic levels. Sandstones were classified into sublitharenite, subarkose, lithic arenite, arkosic arenite and feldspathic graywacke and further thirteen sub-clans. Mean grain size (M) and Trask sorting coefficient (So) increase up-section. Recalculated quartz, matrix, modified maturity index (MMI), total cement (Ct), cement versus matrix index (CMI) and ratio of strong cement over total cement ((Cfc/Cs)/Ct) also increase, whilst packing proximity (PP), packing density (PD) and consolidation factor (Pcc) decrease up-section showing distinct trends, and therefore, these properties are promising in recognizing the older sandstones from the younger ones.
COVID-19 and mutations a threat level assessment

Published: April 2021

A mutation is defined as an alteration in the DNA or RNA sequences of a genome which may consequently confer a new phenotypic and or genotypic advantage both increasing the virulence as well as the survival of a virus or pathogen. At this current point in time there are 4 known major variants of the original SARS-CoV-2 virus, namely the English variant, the South African variant, the Brazilian variant and a variant similar to that of the South African variant found in North America, all of which have varying levels of resistance and infectivity. It is evident that the SARS-CoV-2 variants pose an international health risk, the mutations of E484K and N501Y are the two most implicated mutations. E484K being the most concerning as it aids in immune evasion and drastically causes the efficacy of the current vaccines to be reduced by large margins. The most worrisome variant is the South African or B.1.351 which harbors the above mutations. it is of the upmost importance that targeted vaccines are synthesized to ensure the that immunized individuals have effective protection against these variants. Until these specific targeted vaccines are synthesized the current vaccines offer little long-term protection, however do confer a level of immunity to stop severe infections. It is thus advised that current vaccination programs should continue in earnest as a degree of protection is conferred.

The purpose of this study was to examine and analyze the effect of Working Capital Turnover (WCT), Current Ratio (CR), and Total Assets Turnover (TATO) on Profitability with the Return On Assets (ROA) proxy on cigarette sub sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) quarterly in 2014-2019, both partially and simultaneously. The research method used is descriptive verification with quantitative approaches. The sample in this study used purposive sampling. The statistical method used is the method of multiple linear regression analysis. The results showed that the Working Capital Turnover (WCT), Current Ratio (CR), and Total Assets Turnover (TATO) simultaneously had a significant effect on the Return on Assets (ROA) profitability. Partially Working Capital Turnover (WCT) has a significant negative effect on Return on Assets (ROA) profitability, Current Ratio (CR) has no effect on Return on Assets (ROA) Profitability, and Total Assets Turnover (TATO) has a significant positive effect on Return on Profitability Assets (ROA). The coefficient of determination obtained by 0.429 means that only 42.9% Profitability Return on Assets (ROA) is influenced by Working Capital Turnover (WCT), Current Ratio (CR), and Total Assets Turnover (TATO) and the rest 57.1 % is influenced by other variables.

Published: April 2021

Quelques années après son installation à Amsterdam, Marc Michel Rey prend en charge l’édition hollandaise du Journal des Savants entre 1749 et 1780. Rey conçoit ce périodique, qui enrichit l’édition parisienne de « nouvelles intéressantes » venues de toute l’Europe, comme un lieu de diffusion de l’information scientifique et littéraire, fondé sur une écriture collective, profitant de la liberté d’imprimer plus grande en Hollande qu’à Paris. C’est cette conception qu’il défend lorsqu’il envisage de publier un nouveau périodique avec La Beaumelle, vantant son « expérience » de libraire et d’éditeur de presse. L’article, en se fondant notamment sur la correspondance de Rey, rend compte du rôle qu’entend jouer le libraire éditeur de presse dans la diffusion des savoirs et des idées à l’échelle européenne.

Published: April 2021

INTRODUCTION: Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) is one of the leading causes of preterm infant mortality. Vitamin D deficiency is known as a risk factor for RDS related to infants with immature lungs leading to inflammatory exacerbations. Therefore, early diagnosis is needed to prevent RDS. This study evaluated white blood cells (WBC) ratios and C-reactive protein (CRP) among vitamin D deficient preterm infants with RDS to identify simple and prompted inflammatory markers. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A cross-sectional study involving forty preterm infants (28 to 34-weeks gestational age) with low vitamin D levels (25(OH)D<20 ng/dL) was conducted in a neonatal ward of a hospital in Bandung, Indonesia, from February to October 2018. Two consecutive blood collections (cord blood at birth and venous blood at first week) were performed to measure cord blood vitamin D (25(OH)D) levels, complete blood count (CBC), and CRP levels. White blood cell ratios (Monocyte-to-Lymphocyte ratio: MLR, Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte ratio: NLR, and Platelet-to-Lymphocyte ratio: PLR) were calculated and analyzed. Association analysis was performed using Student’s t-test, Mann-Whitney U and Spearman correlation tests. RESULTS: The median of 25(OH)D levels were 9.96 (7.58-15.81) ng/dL. A significant positive correlation between MLR and CRP was found in the RDS group (r=0.576, p=0.004) and all the subjects (r=0.491, p=0.002); the WBC ratio and CRP levels showed insignificant higher trends when compared to the non[1]RDS group. CONCLUSION: There was a positive correlation between MLR and CRP among vitamin D deficient preterm infants with RDS.

Published: April 2021

INTRODUCTION: Hypertension is one of the invisible diseases causing heart failure and stroke, and responsible for death. This study aimed to determine the level of medication adherence and psychosocial factors among patients with hypertension, relationship between socio demographic and medication adherence, and relationship between psychosocial factors and medication adherence among patients with hypertension. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A cross-sectional descriptive study was performed at the Primary Health Clinic and Medical Clinic in one of the tertiary hospitals. There were 123 patients with hypertension who volunteered to participate using a validated adapted and modified questionnaire to assess the compliance and psychosocial factors. The data collected was analysed using IBM SPSS Statistics version 23. RESULTS: A hundred and twenty respondents were adherents to medication (97.6%) while respondents with non-adherence to medication were 3 (2.4%) with a mean adherence score of 42.2764 with SD ± 2.67134. Some of the psychosocial variables had good understanding, good emotional state, positive attitude, higher motivation, higher perception of severity, lower perception of susceptibility and less barrier to compliance. Emotional state was the only thing reported for the psychosocial factors as being statistically significant. The level of emotional state was found statistically significant differences with scores p=0.008 (p< 0.05). CONCLUSION: The level of medication adherence was good which reflected the patients’ compliance towards medication taking. This study showed a good medication adherence and compliance among hypertension patients.
A1 milk and beta-casomorphin-7
Authors: Andiç Seval , Ayaz Rozelin Münevver , Oğuz Şehriban
Published: April 2021

Milk is composed of water, proteins, lipids, lactose, vit-amins, and minerals. More than 80% of most mam-mals’ milk proteins are con-stituted by caseins. Casein is a group of proteins and they are sub-divided into αs1-, αs2-, β- and -casein families. Among these ca-sein families, -casein is the second most abundant pro-tein. Different mutations in the cow milk -casein gene led to 12 genetic variants and most common of these are genetic variants A1 and A2. The A1 and A2 variants differ only at amino acid position 67, which is histi-dine in A1 or proline in A2 milk. This difference in amino acid sequence sug-gests a conformational change in the secondary structure of the expressed β-casein. Milk that contains A1 β-casein and A2 β-casein are known as A1 milk and A2 milk, respectively. A1 β-casein milk releases an amino acid bioactive pep-tide called beta-casomorphin-7 (CM-7) in small intestine. Beta-casomorphin-7 released from A1 β-casein is respon-sible for many human dis-orders like type-1 diabetes, autism, schizophrenia, alz-heimer’s disease (AD), at-tention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), multiple sclerosis (MS) and heart diseases.

Published: April 2021

Craniosynostosis is the premature fusion of the skull. There are two forms of treatment: open surgery and minimally invasive endoscope-assisted suturectomy. Candidates for endoscopic treatment are less than 6 months of age. The techniques are equally effective; however, endoscopic surgery is associated with less blood loss, minimal tissue disruption, shorter operative time, and shorter hospitalization. In this study, the authors aimed to evaluate the impact of race/ethnicity and insurance status on age of presentation/surgery in children with craniosynostosis to highlight potential disparities in healthcare access. Charts were reviewed for children with craniosynostosis at two tertiary care hospitals in New York City from January 1, 2014, to August 31, 2020. Clinical and demographic data were collected, including variables pertaining to family socioeconomic status, home address/zip code, insurance status (no insurance, Medicaid, or private), race/ethnicity, age and date of presentation for initial consultation, type of surgery performed, and details of hospitalization. Children with unknown race/ethnicity and those with syndromic craniosynostosis were excluded. The data were analyzed via t-tests and chi-square tests for statistical significance (p < 0.05). A total of 121 children were identified; 62 surgeries were performed open and 59 endoscopically. The mean age at initial presentation of the cohort was 6.68 months, and on the day of surgery it was 8.45 months. Age at presentation for the open surgery cohort compared with the endoscopic cohort achieved statistical significance at 11.33 months (SD 12.41) for the open cohort and 1.86 months (SD 1.1473) for the endoscopic cohort (p < 0.0001). Age on the day of surgery for the open cohort versus the endoscopic cohort demonstrated statistical significance at 14.19 months (SD 15.05) and 2.58 months (SD 1.030), respectively. A statistically significant difference between the two groups was noted with regard to insurance status (p = 0.0044); the open surgical group comprised more patients without insurance and with Medicaid compared with the endoscopic group. The racial composition of the two groups reached statistical significance when comparing proportions of White, Black, Hispanic, Asian, and other (p = 0.000815), with significantly more Black and Hispanic patients treated in the open surgical group. The results demonstrate a relationship between race and lack of insurance or Medicaid status, and type of surgery received; Black and Hispanic children and children with Medicaid were more likely to present later and undergo open surgery.

Published: April 2021

OBJECTIVE

Isolated nonsyndromic sagittal synostosis (SS) is the most common form of craniosynostosis in children, accounting for approximately 60% of all craniosynostoses. The typical cranial measurement used to define and follow SS is the cephalic index (CI). Several surgical techniques have been suggested, but agreement on type and timing of surgery is lacking. This study aimed to evaluate the authors’ institutional experience of surgically treating SS using a modified subtotal cranial vault remodeling technique in a population-based cohort. Special attention was directed toward the effect of patient age at time of surgery on long-term CI outcome.

METHODS

A retrospective analysis was conducted on all patients with isolated nonsyndromic SS who were surgically treated from 2003 to 2011. Data from electronic medical records were gathered. Eighty-two patients with SS were identified, 77 fulfilled inclusion criteria, and 72 had sufficient follow-up data and were included. CI during follow-up after surgery was investigated with ANOVA and a linear mixed model.

RESULTS

In total, 72 patients were analyzed, consisting of 16 females (22%) and 56 males (78%). The mean ± SD age at surgery was 4.1 ± 3.1 months. Blood transfusions were received by 81% of patients (26% intraoperatively, 64% postoperatively, 9% both). The mean ± SD time in the pediatric ICU was 1.1 ± 0.25 days, and the mean ± SD total hospital length of stay was 4.6 ± 2.0 days. No patient required reoperation. The mean ± SD CI increased from 69 ± 3 to 87 ± 5 for patients who underwent surgery before 45 days of age. Surgery resulted in a larger increase in CI for patients who underwent surgery at a younger age compared with older patients (p < 0.05, Tukey’s HSD test). In the comparison of patients who underwent surgery before 45 days of age with patients who underwent surgery at 45–90, 90–180, and more than 180 days of age, the linear mixed model estimated a long-term loss of CI of 3.0, 5.5, and 7.4 points, respectively.

CONCLUSIONS

The modified subtotal cranial vault remodeling technique used in this study significantly improved CI in patients with SS. The best results were achieved when surgery was performed early in life.
The need for overcorrection: evaluation of computer-assisted, virtually planned, fronto-orbital advancement using postoperative 3D photography

Published: April 2021

OBJECTIVE

The main indication for craniofacial remodeling of craniosynostosis is to correct the deformity, but potential increased intracranial pressure resulting in neurocognitive damage and neuropsychological disadvantages cannot be neglected. The relapse rate after fronto-orbital advancement (FOA) seems to be high; however, to date, objective measurement techniques do not exist. The aim of this study was to quantify the outcome of FOA using computer-assisted design (CAD) and computer-assisted manufacturing (CAM) to create individualized 3D-printed templates for correction of craniosynostosis, using postoperative 3D photographic head and face surface scans during follow-up.

METHODS

The authors included all patients who underwent FOA between 2014 and 2020 with individualized, CAD/CAM-based, 3D-printed templates and received postoperative 3D photographic face and head scans at follow-up. Since 2016, the authors have routinely planned an additional “overcorrection” of 3 mm to the CAD-based FOA correction of the affected side(s). The virtually planned supraorbital angle for FOA correction was compared with the postoperative supraorbital angle measured on postoperative 3D photographic head and face surface scans. The primary outcome was the delta between the planned CAD/CAM FOA correction and that achieved based on 3D photographs. Secondary outcomes included outcomes with and those without “overcorrection,” time of surgery, blood loss, and morbidity.

RESULTS

Short-term follow-up (mean 9 months after surgery; 14 patients) showed a delta of 12° between the planned and achieved supraorbital angle. Long-term follow-up (mean 23 months; 8 patients) showed stagnant supraorbital angles without a significant increase in relapse. Postsurgical supraorbital angles after an additionally planned overcorrection (of 3 mm) of the affected side showed a mean delta of 11° versus 14° without overcorrection. The perioperative and postoperative complication rates of the whole cohort (n = 36) were very low, and the mean (SD) intraoperative blood loss was 128 (60) ml with a mean (SD) transfused red blood cell volume of 133 (67) ml.

CONCLUSIONS

Postoperative measurement of the applied FOA on 3D photographs is a feasible and objective method for assessment of surgical results. The delta between the FOA correction planned with CAD/CAM and the achieved correction can be analyzed on postoperative 3D photographs. In the future, calculation of the amount of “overcorrection” needed to avoid relapse of the affected side(s) after FOA may be possible with the aid of these techniques.

Published: April 2021

OBJECTIVE

Surgical correction for sagittal and metopic craniosynostosis (SCS and MCS) aims to alter the abnormal cranial shape to resemble that of the normal population. The achieved correction can be assessed by morphometric parameters. The purpose of the presented study was to compare craniometric parameters of control groups to those same parameters after endoscopic and conventional (open) correction.

METHODS

The authors identified 4 groups of children undergoing surgical treatment for either SCS or MCS, with either endoscopic (SCS, n = 17; MCS, n = 16) or conventional (SCS, n = 29; MCS, n = 18) correction. In addition, normal control groups of nonaffected children who were 6 (n = 30) and 24 (n = 18) months old were evaluated. For all groups, several craniometric indices calculated from 3D photographs were compared for quantitative analysis. For qualitative comparison, averages of all 3D photographs were generated for all groups and superimposed to visualize relative changes.

RESULTS

For children with SCS, the cephalic index and coronal circumference index significantly differed preoperatively from those of the 6-month normal controls. The respective postoperative values were similar to those of the 24-month normal controls after both endoscopic and conventional correction. Similarly, for children with MCS, indices for circumference and diagonal dimension that were significantly different preoperatively became nonsignificantly different from those of 24-month normal controls after both endoscopic and conventional correction. The qualitative evaluation of superimposed average 3D head shapes confirmed changes toward normal controls after both treatment modalities for SCS and MCS. However, in SCS, the volume gain, especially in the biparietal area, was more noticeable after endoscopic correction, while in MCS, relative volume gain of the bilateral forehead was more pronounced after conventional correction. The average 3D head shapes matched more homogeneously with the average of normal controls after endoscopic correction for SCS and after conventional correction for MCS.

CONCLUSIONS

This quantitative analysis confirms that the performed surgical techniques of endoscopic and conventional correction of SCS and MCS alter the head shape toward those of normal controls. However, in a qualitative evaluation, the average head shape after endoscopic technique for SCS and conventional correction for MCS appears to be closer to that of normal controls than after the alternative technique. This study reports on morphometric outcomes after craniosynostosis correction. Only an assessment of the whole multiplicity of outcome parameters based on multicenter data acquisition will allow conclusions of superiority of one surgical technique.

All over the world, the number of people suffering from diseases of the gastrointestinal tract is increasing every year. Digestive diseases are also not the last place in the struc- ture of causes of death. One of the main causes of gastrointestinal pathology is irrational, unhealthy diet, the foundations of which are often laid in childhood. Education at school is a change in diet, the child›s independence in choosing food. At school age, certain food choices are gradually fixed in the eating habit and determine the formation of the health of children and adults. The aim of the study was to investigate the factors that play a leading role in the formation of eating habits in schoolchildren of different ages, and the attitude of schoolchildren to nutrition in sec- ondary schools in Kyiv. At the research took part 267 students of secondary schools in Kyiv, 214 of them - are younger students (8-11 years), and 53 - older students (12-17 years). Two questionnaires presented to students in grades 3-4 and grades 5-11, certain questions allowed us to assess the impact on food choices of factors such as family eating habits, friends› opinions, advertising, and personal beliefs. Also, the answers to certain questions were grouped in such a way as to assess the trends in school nutrition and the readiness of the student›s family to follow the rules of healthy eating with the child. The criterion for exclusion from the study was the presence of diseases that require any dietary restrictions. The results of the study: according to the survey, 42-47% of young children have the greatest influence on the forma- tion of eating habits of family eating habits and their own beliefs, while for most older children (75.5%) the influence of family eating habits pre- vails. Among 267 students who are in school for an average of about 6-8 hours, have a full meal 178 (66%), almost a third use the service «ready school lunches», 32% bring food from home, 1/3 of children in schools consume only fruit and water. Of the 208 students who ate lunch at school at least once, 63% of children thought it was delicious, but 37.4% said that lunch was cold and did not allow them to eat it with pleasure. Only 13% of children noted that lunches were not tasty. The majority of young children (82%) believe that their parents will support them in choosing healthy food, compared to 47.1% of high school students. These results can be used by teachers to understand the main points of influence on the formation of healthy eating skills in children, and questionnaires can be used to assess school nutrition and to assess the dominant factors in the formation of eating habits in an individual child.

Pain in the lower abdomen and groin can oc- cur in athletes who perform sharp lower extrem- ity movement during training or sports, make sharp turns and change direction of the trunk movement as well as lower extremity accelera- tion/deceleration. An excessive load during the sports game can disturb the biomechanics of the player’s movements. A precise localization of damaged tissues can improve for the diagnosis, determining treatment and forecasting the time ofreturn to sports.

The aim was to estimate the importance of the football biomechanics movement for the anato- my of the groin and to determine the anatomi- cal features of the groin in football players with sports hernia.

We analysed the thickness and length measure- ments on MRI of the rectus abdominis muscle in 51 football players of professional and amateur clubs aged 17 to 33 years with groin pain who were treated at the Kyiv Clinical City Hospital No3 for the period 2014-2020. In the second stage of the study, we investigated the peak force of the abdominal muscles (rectus abdominis, exter- nal oblique abdominal muscles) and the adductor muscles of both lower extremities using the mi- croFET2 dynamometer for 4 groups of football players. The first group of the study includes 15 football players of professional clubs with sports hernia who had received conservative treatment, the partipants of the second group are 36 football players after laparoscopic hernioplasty, the third group consisted of 54 healthy young football players and 11 teenage footballers. In the third stage of the study, a formula was substantiated, according to which we calculated the accelera- tion of the lower extremity when kicking the ball.

The results of the study demostrate that the disruption of the lower extremity biomechanics during kicking the ball cause the appearance of sports hernia in football players. An axial MRI scan of groin areas of football players with sports hernia represented changes in the lateral edge of the rectus abdominis. The groin pain syndrome of football players with sports hernia includes three pathogenetic mechanisms of development: dis- ruption of the biomechanics, muscle imbalance and microtrauma and inflammation.

Az elmúlt években nagymértékben megnőtt a jelentősége az erők mozgatásával kapcsolatos képességeknek. Az erők fogadása, állomásoztatása és előremozgatása (RSOM) szövetségi szinten is felértékelődött, amely főként az új biztonsági kihívásokkal magyarázható. Az Oroszország által végrehajtott műveletek (Krím annektálása, nagyszabású mozgósítások és gyakorlatok, a kelet-ukrajnai konfliktus) arra késztették az Észak-atlanti Szerződés Szervezetét, hogy a különböző gyakorlatok, kiképzések és fejlesztések megtartásán, megvalósításán keresztül válaszként növelje az erők alkalmazási képességét. Az eddigi tapasztalatok azt mutatják, hogy Magyarország tevékeny szerepet tölthet be az erők gyülekezési körletéből a gyakorlat helyszínére történő mozgatásában. A szerzők cikkükben arra törekednek, hogy a gyakorlati tapasztalatok alapján értékeljék Magyarország szerepét a NATO RSOM- és válságreagáló műveleteiben.

Students errors are actually provide resources for teaching. Using students error, lecturer can emphasized certain concept while teaching, especially those concepts which make students confused. One of the teaching method that use students error is erroneous example. In this article, we developed a certain task using erroenous example method. The task consists of 10 question. Each question is made to tackle students understanding about a concept that is often mistaken by students. For each question, we give a correct/incorrect worked example, then students are asked to find the mistakes (if it is incorrect) or justify the steps (if it is correct). This study is a descriptive qualitative study that aims to describe the task and students response after doing the task. The method of collecting data was using observation, documentation, and interview. The results shows us that erroneous example task can be categorized difficult for students. However, it is also proved that it can be used to supporting students mathematics communication.

Uncertainty of Outcome and Attendance: Evidence from Russian Football
Authors: Baydina Kseniya , Parshakov Petr , Zavertiaeva Marina
Published: April 2021

Abstract: In this study, we estimate an attendance demand model in a reduced form, with uncertainty as one of the determinants of demand, to test the uncertainty of outcome hypothesis (UOH). Data from the Russian Football Premier League (RFPL) are used. These data fit our requirements for two reasons. First, there are few sellout matches, so demand for tickets in the RFPL is not restricted by stadium capacity. Secondly, there have been no articles devoted to the study of outcome uncertainty in the RFPL. The results indicate that the UOH does not explain the behavioral pattern of attendees in the RFPL. The dependence between attendance and uncertainty is U-shaped. We observe some evidence that attendee’s utility in the RFPL depends more on seeing a home team win.

O Coronavírus (SARS-COV-2) contaminou muita gente no Brasil e no mundo. A doença mostrou importância do profissional de fisioterapia estar atualizado e ter conhecimento das técnicas e recursos para o manejo correto dos pacientes dentro da Unidade de Terapia Intensiva. Este estudo teve como objetivo geral delinear a assistência fisioterapêutica ao paciente com COVID-19 na unidade de terapia intensiva. Trata-se de uma revisão bibliográfica, baseada em análise de artigos científicos publicados no ano de 2020. A busca de dados foi realizada no período de março a setembro de 2020, onde foram selecionados artigos em conformidade com o tema proposto, sendo realizado um levantamento bibliográfico nas bases de dados: Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), Literatura Latina Americana em Ciência de Saúde (LILACS), Google Acadêmico, Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro) e PubMed. Apesar de grande parte da população infectada apresentarem apenas sintomas leves, alguns podem ter uma forma mais grave da doença sendo necessário a hospitalização em um leito clínico ou até mesmo em Unidade de Terapia Intensiva, pois alguns casos de pacientes com COVID-19 pode evoluir para diferentes níveis de gravidade da doença, podendo levar a uma insuficiência respiratória aguda (IRA), a síndrome do desconforto respiratório aguda (SDRA) ou até a falência de múltiplos órgãos. Sendo assim, conclui-se que o atendimento fisioterapêutico é de extrema importância para o paciente, tanto na admissão como durante todo o tempo de internação na unidade de terapia intensiva.

Published: April 2021

Because of industrialization and modernization, phenomenal changes have taken place in almost all spheres of life. Consequently, the consumption of energy resources and the cases of environmental hazards have risen to an unprecedentedly high level. A development model with due consideration to nature and an efficient utilization of energy sources has become the need of the hour, in order to ensure a sustainable balance between the environmental and technological needs. Recent studies have identified the suitability of ionic liquids (ILs), often labeled as ‘green solvents’, in the efficient utilization of energy resources and activities such as bio-extraction, pollution control, CO2 capture, waste management etc. in an environmentally friendly manner. The advent of magnetic ionic liquids (MILs) and deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have opened possibilities for a circular economic approach in this filed. This review intends to analyze the environmental and energy wise consumption of a wide variety of ionic liquids and their potential towards future.

Authors: Council Thais , Earls Shaeroya , George Shakale , Graham Rebecca
Published: April 2021

In Southwest Atlanta, urban education reform and gentrification have intersected to create the perfect collision of housing and educational displacement of Black students, Black families, and Black teachers. While Black communities are dealing with the impacts of gentrification, Black schools are simultaneously witnessing shifts that uproot students and their teachers. As a teacher participatory action research (PAR) collective, we share our personal experiences of housing displacement and how it has impacted our students, our communities, and our ability to maintain our positions as community-centered teachers. In this article, we acclimate readers to Atlanta, Georgia, and the Southwest Atlanta region in which we serve. We also illustrate how we have confronted the displacement of our students and ourselves. Finally, we highlight the significance of community-centered teachers operating within a Critical Studyin’ for Human Freedom praxis in the struggle against systemic inequities that persistently plague our students and communities.
