Comprehensive Review on Rheumatoid Arthritis
Authors: Rohit Nandini , Thakur Bhupendra , Jain Anushree , Jain Prateek Kumar , Khare Basant , Jat Yashwant Singh
Published: December 2022

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory, systemic, progressive, autoimmune disease in which the body’s immune system whose major role is to protect the health by attacking foreign bacteria and viruses are mistakenly, attacking the joints resulting in thickened synovium, pannus formation & destruction of bone, cartilage. Many complications can follow such as permanent joint damage requiring arthroplasty, rheumatoid vasculitis and elty’s syndrome requiring splenectomy if it remains unaddressed. Still now researchers are unable to know the exact cause of this disease. However, it is believed that age, gender, genetics and environmental exposure (cigarette smoking, air pollutants and occupational) play a role in development of RA. As there is no cure for RA, the treatment goals are to reduce the pain and stop/slow the further damage. The identification of novel autoantibodies has improved diagnostic accuracy, and newly developed classification criteria facilitate the recognition and study of the disease early in its course. New clinical assessment tools are able to better characterize disease activity states, which are correlated with progression of damage and disability and permit improved follow up. In addition, better understanding of the pathogenesis of RA through recognition of key cells and cytokines has led to the development of targeted disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs. Altogether, the improved understanding of the pathogenetic processes involved, rational use of established drugs and development of new drugs and reliable assessment tools have drastically altered the lives of individuals with RA over the past 2 decades.  In this review, we discuss the epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis and management of RA.

Asentamientos y hábitat. El rol condicionante del espacio urbano en Posadas, Argentina
Authors: Brites Walter Fernando
Published: December 2022

The case of Posadas (Argentina) shows the relevance of the urban environment for living conditions in settlements. The particularities of settlements are analyzed here, considering that the urban environment of their location plays an important role in terms of opportunities and restrictions for the quality of life of their inhabitants. Methodologically, this work is based on a multimodal and descriptive analysis, supported by interviews with neighbors and community leaders, and complementing the analysis with documentary information. The research privileges the importance of urban spatiality, exploring how social practices and processes are articulated from the space within the habitat of settlements and the surrounding urban space outside them. The main contribution of the manuscript suggests that, beyond the multidimensional problems of the habitats and the poverty of its population, the characteristics of the city space where they are located are the ones that most strongly condition the evolution of the settlements.
El uso de servicios formales de cuidado infantil entre 0 y 3 años en España
Authors: Sola-Espinosa Iñaki , Rogero-García Jesús , Meil Gerardo
Published: December 2022

Los servicios formales de cuidado infantil (SFCI) se han consolidado en las sociedades contemporáneas como una política fundamental para la promoción de la conciliación familiar, la igualdad de género y la igualdad de oportunidades. El objetivo de este artículo es analizar los factores que condicionan la extensión e intensidad del uso de SFCI por las familias residentes en España con niños/as de 0 a 3 años. Basándonos en la European Statistics on Income and Living Conditions 2016, estimamos un modelo de regresión de Poisson con cero inflado. Los resultados indican que, a diferencia de los hombres, es más probable que las madres ocupadas usen SFCI y lo hagan durante más horas que las desempleadas, y éstas que las inactivas. La renta familiar continúa condicionando el acceso y uso de estos servicios a pesar de las políticas de precios condicionadas a la renta, pero no se observa relación con el nivel de estudios. Los progenitores inmigrantes extracomunitarios tienen menos probabilidad de usar SFCI, pero, en el caso de usarlos, lo hacen durante más horas, al igual que los progenitores con estudios primarios. Por último, tener hermanos menores de siete años afecta positivamente a dicho uso. Estos resultados tienen implicaciones relevantes en el diseño de políticas públicas de cuidado a la primera infancia.
‘Ser putero implica asumir riesgos’: la masculinidad misógina de los hombres prostituidores durante la pandemia del COVID-19 en España
Authors: Castillo Villanueva Alicia , Senent Julián Rosa Marina
Published: December 2022

Este estudio examina el comportamiento de los hombres prostituidores en el contexto de la pandemia del Covid-19 a través del discurso de aquellos que han participado en foros de prostitución durante el primer año de la pandemia en España. Aplicando la metodología del Feminist Critical Discourse Analysis (FCDA) este estudio aplica la noción de “masculinidad como factor de riesgo” a los hombres prostituidores, quienes ponen en peligro la salud de las mujeres prostituidas, de otras mujeres y hombres, y la suya propia. Además, este artículo propone una cuarta dimensión con respecto a posibles aspectos negativos de la masculinidad sobre la sociedad y la salud pública en el contexto de la pandemia. La identificación de los hombres prostituidores con una masculinidad misógina debe considerarse un problema tanto desde el punto de vista epidemiológico como desde una perspectiva de derechos humanos.
Preocupación por la pandemia en la sociedad española y exigencia de endurecimiento de medidas
Authors: Serrano-Sanz Adrián
Published: December 2022

En Leyes de miedo, Cass R. Sunstein (2013) sugiere que la duración temporal de políticas que restrinjan las libertades de los ciudadanos dependerá, fundamentalmente, de criterios cuantitativos. En esta nota de investigación se pone a prueba esa hipótesis. Con este objetivo se analizan los datos del Centro de Investigaciones Sociológicas, de los que se extrae que cuando la opinión pública tiene una percepción de riesgo real una notable mayoría de la población se situará a favor de endurecer las medidas restrictivas. Los resultados sugieren que, además de los criterios cuantitativos, otros factores determinarán la posición de los ciudadanos respecto del mantenimiento, o endurecimiento, de limitaciones sobre sus propias libertades.

Estágio e Formação Docente em Dança na Educação Infantil
Authors: Almeida Fernanda de Souza , Dias Prado Patrícia
Published: December 2022

A partir da experiência docente em curso de Licenciatura em Dança em uma Universidade Federal brasileira, na disciplina de Estágio supervisionado em Dança em Centros Municipais de Educação Infantil, esse artigo busca refletir sobre saberes relevantes para a formação de professoras/es nesta linguagem artística, de modo a contemplar as especificidades dessa etapa da Educação Básica. Por meio de pesquisa qualitativa, do tipo estudo de caso, através da análise dos diários de campo das/os estagiárias/os, notou-se que a tentativa de se avizinhar das distintas lógicas e expressividades das crianças pequenas, acessar suas brincadeiras e construções lúdicas, observar e escutar seus gestos e movimentos, tornou-se o centro do processo criativo e formativo das estudantes na elaboração de propostas dançantes que necessitavam envolver tempos, espaços e materialidades diversificadas. Com tal pesquisa pode-se, portanto, romper com uma concepção inacabada de infância e contribuir com a ampliação de estudos na área, fomentando reflexões e experimentações acerca da formação inicial docente em Dança com crianças.

Na onda dos inúteis: uma experiência remota com teatro e leitura na escola
Authors: Matos Lara Tatiane de , Nagib Marques Peres Luan , Barbosa Pina Pereira Lucy
Published: December 2022

A pandemia de Covid-19 mudou nossa rotina de maneira abrupta, suas consequências e legados ainda não podemos mensurar de todo. Neste sentido, é certo que temos muito a pensar sobre quanto avançamos e retrocedemos neste período de dois anos no que diz respeito à educação, principalmente quando a educação em questão se suporta na relação entre construção subjetiva e expressão, o que é o caso do trabalho com teatro na escola. Este ensaio propõe olhar para uma experiência de lonjuras, de instabilidades, de presença/ausência em simultâneo. Experiência que acontece ilhada, na ilha de Florianópolis, nas ilhas de nossas casas em isolamento, tem o mar como premissa: o tempo lento da praia no inverno, o conhecimento observador dos pescadores. É esse outro tempo que nos convidou a trazer a leitura e a escuta acoplada ao teatro à em experimentações teatrais síncronas e assíncronas baseadas em uma condição que pressupõe desatar os nós das expectativas, dos vislumbres produtivos e por isso nos cercamos daquilo que em geral se considera inutilidade. Neste texto acompanhamos os passos de uma personagem intrigada pela possibilidade não ser útil, ou de, se ser, ser inútil, e a ela apresentamos outros autores que também já se perguntaram se há lugar para o inútil, e como, estando em confinamento, suportar a vontade de cumprir com as demandas de produção que nos cercam, a produção pasteurizada, embalada e poluente. A personagem nos acompanha na descoberta de possibilidades criativas e teatrais em uma prática pessoal, coletiva, acessível e de extrema importância nos dias atuais: a leitura e a escuta.
GenAPoPop 1.0: a user-friendly software to analyse genetic diversity and structure in partially clonal and selfed polyploid organisms
Authors: Stoeckel Solenn , Becheler Ronan , Bocharova Ekaterina , Barloy Dominique
Published: December 2022

Autopolyploidy is quite common in most clades of eukaryotes. The
emergence of sequence-based genotyping methods with individual and
marker tags enables now confident allele dosage, overcoming the main
obstacle to the democratization of the population genetic approaches
when studying ecology and evolution of autopolyploid populations and
species. Partial clonality, allogamy and selfing are reproductive modes
commonly that have deep consequences on the ecology and evolution of
population and species. Analysing genetic diversity and its dynamics
over generations is one efficient way to infer the relative importance
of clonality, selfing and allogamy in populations. GENAPOPOP is a
user-friendly solution to compute the specific corpus of population
genetic indices needed to analyse partially clonal, allogamous and
selfed polysomic populations genotyped with confident allele dosage. It
also easily provides the posterior probabilities of quantitative
reproductive modes in autopolyploid populations genotyped at two-time
steps and a graphical representation of the minimum spanning trees of
the genetic distances between polyploid individuals, facilitating the
interpretation of the genetic coancestry between individuals in
hierarchically structured populations. GENAPOPOP complements the
previously existing solutions, including SPAGEDI and POLYGENE, to use
genotypings to study the ecology and evolution of autopolyploid
populations. It was specially developed with a simple graphical
interface and workflow to facilitate practical course and teaching of
population genetics for autopolyploid populations.
Higher-order multiplicative derivative iterative scheme to solve the nonlinear problems
Authors: GSingh * , Bhalla Sonia , Behl Ramandeep
Published: December 2022

Grossman and Katz (five decade ago) suggested a new definition of
differential and integral calculus which utilize the multiplicative and
division operator as compared to the addition and subtraction.
Multiplicative Calculus is a vital part of the applied Mathematics
because of its application in the area of Biology, Science and Finance,
Biomedical, Economic, etc. Therefore, we used a multiplicative calculus
approach to develop a new fourth-order iterative scheme for multiple
roots based on the well-known King’s method. In addition, we also
propose the detailed convergence analysis of our scheme with the help of
multiplicative calculus approach rather than the normal one. Different
kinds of numerical comparisons has been suggested and obtained results
are very impressive as compared to the ordinary derivative methods.
Finally, the convergence of our technique is also analyzed by basin of
attractions that also support the theoretical aspects.
Easy-to-use R functions to separate reduced-representation genomic datasets into sex-linked and autosomal loci, and conduct sex-assignment
Authors: Robledo-Ruiz Diana , Austin Lana , Amos J , Castrejón-Figureoa Jesús , Magrath Michael , Sunnucks Paul , Pavlova Alexandra
Published: December 2022

Identifying sex-linked markers in genomic datasets is important, because
their analyses can reveal sex-specific biology, and their presence in
supposedly neutral autosomal datasets can result in incorrect estimates
of genetic diversity, population structure and parentage. But detecting
sex-linked loci can be challenging, and available scripts neglect some
categories of sex-linked variation. Here, we present new R functions to
(1) identify and separate sex-linked loci in ZW and XY sex determination
systems and (2) infer the genetic sex of individuals based on these
loci. Two additional functions are presented, to (3) remove loci with
artefactually high heterozygosity, and (4) produce input files for
parentage analysis. We test these functions on genomic data for two
sexually-monomorphic bird species, including one with a neo-sex
chromosome system, by comparing biological inferences made before and
after removing sex-linked loci using our function. We found that
standard filters, such as low read depth and call rate, failed to remove
up to 28.7% of sex-linked loci. This led to (i) overestimation of
population FIS by ≤ 9%, and the number of private alleles by ≤ 8%;
(ii) wrongly inferring significant sex-differences in heterozygosity,
(iii) obscuring genetic population structure, and (iv) inferring
~11% fewer correct parentages. We discuss how failure
to remove sex-linked markers can lead to incorrect biological inferences
(e.g., sex-biased dispersal and cryptic population structure) and
misleading management recommendations. For reduced-representation
datasets with at least 15 known-sex individuals of each sex, our
functions offer convenient, easy-to-use resources to avoid this, and to
sex the remaining individuals.
Eyespot peek-a-boo: false eyes improve the survival of caterpillars in leaf rolls
Authors: Postema Elizabeth
Published: December 2022

Deimatic displays typically involve body parts that can conceal or
reveal visual signals, potentially reducing detectability at a distance
while startling predators up close. Some species may achieve this
“conceal-then-reveal” effect using modified aspects of their
environment (environmental deimatism hypothesis). The larvae of
spicebush swallowtail butterflies (Papilio troilus) possess large
eyespots, and rest in leaf rolls during the day. I tested the hypothesis
that leaf rolls reduce eyespot conspicuousness while maintaining eyespot
effectiveness by comparing avian predation on 659 artificial larvae:
eyespotted and non-eyespotted, presented in leaf rolls or on open
leaves. Leaf rolls reduced predation regardless of color pattern.
Eyespots also reduced predation, but only for artificial larvae in leaf
rolls. On open leaves, eyespots neither increased nor decreased
predation. These results suggest that eyespots and leaf rolls can
combine to create a deimatic display – and that this strategy likely
evolved to enhance existing antipredator effects of leaf rolls.
Investigation of forage mycotoxin levels in horses with increased liver enzyme concentrations
Authors: Bates Annabelle , Mackenzie Catriona , Colgate Victoria , Floyd Emily
Published: December 2022

Background: Mycotoxins are naturally occurring toxic metabolites found
in cereals and forage released by moulds and other fungi. In domestic
farm animals, mycotoxins contribute to a spectrum of disorders. However,
little is known about the impact of multiple mycotoxins in horses and
there is little published data investigating mycotoxins found in forage
fed to horses in the UK. Objectives: To identify the concentrations of
mycotoxins found in forage fed to horses in the UK with increased liver
enzyme concentrations. Study Design: Retrospective case series. Methods:
Records of forage mycotoxin sampling undertaken for horses with
increased liver enzymes between May 2019 – October 2021 were reviewed.
The quantity and frequency of 54 mycotoxins identified were recorded.
Individual mycotoxins were grouped based on their biochemical structure
or fungus they are produced by. Results: Mycotoxins were detected in
50/52 (96%, CI 87-99) of forage samples; 42/52 (81%, CI 67-90) samples
had two or more present. The median number of mycotoxin groups detected
was three. Emerging mycotoxins were detected in 39/52 samples (75%, CI
61-86) with median concentration of 92 μg/kg [IQR 20-444] (median
concentration [IQR]); fusaric acid in 25/52 samples (48%, CI
34-62), (14 [11-45]), and type B trichothecenes in 24/52 samples
(46%, CI 32-61), (119 [50-1517]). One or more mycotoxin groups were
detected in 14/52 samples (26%, CI 16-42) at a concentration thought to
be ‘higher’ risk to animal health; 22/52 (42%, CI 29-57) samples had
one or more mycotoxins groups that were detected at a concentration that
was ‘medium’ or ‘higher’ risk. Main limitations: Lack of a control
population and potential for case selection bias. Conclusions:
Mycotoxins are frequently found in the forage eaten by horses with
increased liver enzymes. The effects of mycotoxins in horses and
synergistic effects of multiple mycotoxins in horses warrant further
investigation.

Published: December 2022

The design and fabrication of flexible, porous, conductive electrodes
with customizable functions become the prime challenge in the
development of new-generation wearable electronics, especially for
rechargeable batteries. Here, NiCo bi-alloy particulate catalysts loaded
self-supporting carbon foam framework (NiCo@SCF) as a flexible electrode
has been fabricated through one facile adsorption-pyrolysis method using
a commercial melamine foam. Compared with the electrode with Pt/C and
Ir/C benchmark catalysts, the NiCo@SCF electrode exhibited superior
bifunctional electrocatalytic performance in alkaline media with a
half-wave potential of 0.906V for oxygen reduction reaction, an
overpotential of 286 mV at j=10 mA cm−2 for oxygen evolution reaction,
and stable bifunctional performance with a small degradation after
20,000 voltammetric cycles. The as-assembled aqueous zinc-air battery
(ZAB) with NiCo@SCF as a self-supporting air cathode demonstrated a high
peak power density of 178.6 mW cm-2 at a current density of 10 mA cm−2
and a stable voltage gap of 0.94V a 540 h charge-discharge operation.
Remarkably, the as-assembled flexible solid-state ZAB with
self-supporting NiCo@SCF as air cathode presented an engaging peak power
density of 80.1 mW cm-2 and excellent durability of 95 h undisrupted
operation, showing promise for the design of wearable ZAB.
State-of-Art Research on CZTS Thin-Film Solar Cell- A Review
Authors: Lenka Trupti Ranjan , Paul Rabin , Talukdar Fazal Ahmed , Goyal Vishal , Boukortt Nour El Islam , Menon P. Susthitha
Published: December 2022

CZTS material is seen as a very potential replacement for toxic
CIGS, and CIS material as a thin-film solar cell absorber layer. Because
of its extraordinary light absorption capacity and generation of
electron-hole pairs, CZTS has been implemented as a thin-film solar
cell. Research is going on over the last decade on increasing the
efficiency of the CZTS solar cell. Different structural and material
properties have been experimentally altered to achieve higher
efficiency. But even after several attempts the single junction CZTS
solar cell has not achieved an efficiency of more than 13%. In this
article, a detailed review is done of the developments that have taken
place and the future scope of the CZTS thin-film solar cell (TFSC). From
its evolution, materials preparation, fabrication process, TFSC design,
and defects in CZTS to its implementation as a solar cell are discussed
in this manuscript.
Implementation of Crow Search Algorithm based two degree of freedom combined fractional order PID controller for AGC of hydro-thermal power system with wind and small hydro power plants
Authors: Karanam Appala Naidu , Shaw Binod , Nayak Jyoti Ranjan
Published: December 2022

The unceasing efforts to design an optimal controller for automatic
generation control (AGC) in power systems motivate the design of a novel
Two-Degree-of-Freedom-Combined Fractional Order PID (2-DOF-Combined
FOPID) controller. Two-area interconnected power systems comprised of
reheated thermal and hydro units with boiler dynamics, generator rate
constraints and dead zone non-linearity in each area are tested using
the designed controller. The performance of the proposed controller is
studied with the conventional PID controller, the classical
Two-Degree-of-Freedom PID (2-DOF-PID) controller, and the Two
Degree-of-Freedom Fractional Order PID controller (2DOF FOPID). The
elemental intension of designing supplementary controllers is to
diminish the area of control error (ACE). The Crow search algorithm
(CSA) is chosen to determine the optimal values of controller gain
parameters in order to curtail the figure of demerit. The dynamic
behavior of the system is investigated pertaining to a 0.01 p.u. load
disturbance in area 1. The performance of the designed controller is
explored using wind integration and an CSA optimized small hydro power
plant. Investigations reveal that the transient response is superior
using the 2-DOF-Combined FOPID concerning the stability indices viz.
overshoot (Osh), undershoot (Ush), and settling time response of the
power system.
A vese primer szoliter fibrózus tumora: esettanulmány és irodalmi áttekintés
Authors: Vrecenár László , Galambos Csilla , Diczházi János Csaba , Buzogány István
Published: December 2022

Célkitűzés: A szerzők ritka, veseeredetű fibrózus tumor esetét mutatják be áttekintve az irodalmi hátteret is. Esetismertetés: A szoliter fibrózus tumor (SFT) egy ritka mesenchymalis daganat, amely elsősorban a pleurában fordul elő. Primeren a veséből kiindulva extrém ritkán kerül felfedezésre. Az esettanulmányunkban szereplő 21 éves férfi páciens kivizsgálása ismétlődő, tudatzavarokkal is járó hypoglykaemiás epizódok miatt indult, amely során felfedezésre került jobb oldali vesetumora. A kezdeti core biopszás mintavétel diagnosztikus dilemmát okozott, de a későbbi radikális nephrectomiából származó specimen immunhisztokémiai vizsgálata igazolta a vese primer szoliter fibrózus tumorát. Betegünk műtétet követő háromhónapos utánkövetése alkalmával ezidáig sem recidíva, sem metasztázis nem igazolódott. Megbeszélés: A kezelésének alapja elsődlegesen sebészi, amely áttétes esetben magában foglalja a metastasectomiát is. Tekintettel a recidíva és a távoli áttétképzés lehetőségére, gondos utánkövetés ajánlott.
Élet prosztatarákkal a betegek szemszögéből Egy hazai felmérés eredménye
Authors: Bíró Krisztina , Kun Eszter , Dobi Etelka
Published: December 2022

A prosztatarák férfiaknál az egyik leggyakrabban diagnosztizált rosszindulatú betegség. A korai felismerésnek, az időben elvégzett radikális kezeléseknek és a sorra megjelenő modern gyógyszereknek köszönhetően ezen betegek várható túlélése folyamatosan javul. A megnövekedett túlélés miatt az életminőség szerepe is felértékelődik, emiatt világszerte egyre több publikáció vizsgálja, szubjektíven miként élik meg a betegek a betegség során megtett útjukat, a diagnózistól, a kivizsgáláson és kezelésen keresztül egészen a palliatív ellátásig. Vizsgálatunkban online kérdőívek segítségével 61 prosztatadaganatos férfit kérdeztünk meg arról, hogy szubjektíven miként élték meg a kezelések során általuk megtett betegutat. Bár a betegek többsége úgy érezte, hogy a diagnózis hátteréről, illetve a kezelési lehetőségekről részletes tájékoztatást kapott, viszont sokan hiányolták a kezelések esetleges szövődményeiről, a mellékhatásokról, illetve a klinikai vizsgálatokról történő részletesebb tájékoztatást. Mindössze 28%-ukkal ismertették a megfelelő életmód pozitív hatásait és csak 8% tudott arról, hogy esetét az onkológiai bizottság megtárgyalta volna, annak ellenére, hogy nemzetközi vizsgálatok már többszörösen igazolták, hogy az onkoteam bevonása a daganatos betegek kezelésébe javítja az eredményeket.
Urétertumor miatt végzett laparoszkópos patkóvese-szétválasztás és bal oldali ureteronephrectomia (Esetismertetés)
Authors: Csicsenkov Péter , Domján Zsolt
Published: December 2022

Bevezetés: A patkóvese a vese leggyakoribb fúziós fejlődési rendellenessége. Incidenciája körülbelül 1:500 normálpopulációban, férfiaknál mintegy kétszer gyakrabban fordul elő, mint nőknél. A felső húgyutakat érintő urotheliális karcinóma viszonylag ritkán fordul elő, kevesebb, mint 5%-ot teszi ki az összes urotheliális karcinómák közül. Magas mortalitással és morbiditással jár. Esetismertetés: A szerzők egy olyan esetet ismertetnek, ahol laparoszkópos patkóvese-szétválasztást és bal oldali ureteronephrectomiát végeztek uréterdaganat miatt. Az esetet azért tartották bemutatásra érdemesnek, mert teljes vastagságú parenchymahíddal rendelkező patkóvesét sikerült minimálisan invazív módon szétválasztani, és ehhez egy biztonságos megoldást kellett kidolgozniuk. Megbeszélés: Az irodalomban tumor miatt végzett laparoszkópos patkóvese-szétválasztás néhány eset kivételével alig található, hazánkban pedig ez tekinthető az első publikációnak a témában.
Vesetranszplantációt követően a graftban kialakult vesetumor
Authors: Kiss Zoltán , Berczi Csaba , Berczi Adrienne , Flaskó Tibor
Published: December 2022

Bevezetés: A szervtranszplantációt követően alkalmazott immunszuppresszív kezelés növeli a malignus daganatok incidenciáját. Vesetranszplantációt követően a vesetumor előfordulása magasabb, mint a normálpopulációban. Ezen daganatok többsége a beteg saját veséjében alakul ki, azonban 10%-uk a graftban jelentkezik. Szerzők tanulmányukban három eset kapcsán ismertetik a transzplantált vesében jelentkező vesedaganat kezelésével szerzett tapasztalataikat. Esetismertetés: 1. eset: a 46 éves férfi betegnél 20 évvel korábban történt vesetranszplantáció. A gondozás során rutinszerűen végzett ultrahangvizsgálat egy 2 cm-es tumort észlelt a graftban, amelyet az elvégzett hasi MR-vizsgálat megerősített. A betegnél parciális nephrectomiát végeztek. A szövettani vizsgálat pT1a, renocelluláris karcinómát igazolt. A műtétet követően az immunszuppresszív gyógyszerek dózisát csökkentették. A 2 éves utánkövetés során recidív tumort nem észleltek. 2. eset: a 65 éves nőbetegnél 13 évvel ezelőtt végeztek vesetranszplantációt. Ultrahang- és CT-vizsgálat a transzplantált vese felső pólusában egy 35 mm-es daganatot írt le, amely miatt vesereszekció történt. A szövettani vizsgálat pT1a, renocelluláris karcinómát mutatott. A műtétet követően az immunszuppresszív gyógyszerek dózisát csökkentették. A17 hónapos utánkövetés alatt recidíva nem alakult ki. 3. eset: a 62 éves férfi betegben 10 évvel korábban vesetranszplantáció történt. Az utánkövetés során az ultrahangvizsgálat a graftban 2,5 cm-es tumort mutatott, amelyet a CT is igazolt. Tumorreszekció történt, amelynek során multifokális daganat került eltávolításra. A szövettan papilláris karcinómát véleményezett. A műtétet követően a tacrolimus helyett everolimus kezelés indult. A 2 hónapos utánkövetés alatt recidíva nem jelentkezett. Megbeszélés: A vesetranszplantációt követően a graftban kialakult vesetumorok esetében szervmegtartó műtétet ajánlott végezni. Az ismertetésre került esetekben is tumorreszekció történt. A szervmegtartó műtét megfelelő onkológiai eredményességet biztosított az átültetett vese funkciójának megtartása mellett.
Prosztatabiopsziáink értékelése
Authors: Monostori Zoltán , Szauer Orsolya , Böszörményi-Nagy Géza
Published: December 2022

Bevezetés: A 2015-ös év folyamán, osztályunkon végzett 215 prosztatabiopszia adatait értékeltük. Betegek és módszer: Vizsgáltuk a biopszia előtti klinikai adatokat, az előkészítés módját, a beavatkozás körülményeit, valamint az eredményeket és a szövődményeket. Vizsgáltuk továbbá a szövődmények és a klinikai adatok közötti összefüggéseket. Eredmények: A mintavétel előtti PSA-értékek átlaga 18,9 (2,2–817) ng/ml volt, az esetek 37,7%-ában a tapintási lelet eltérést, tumoros folyamat gyanúját vetette fel. Az átlagos prosztataméretet 54,3 ml-nek találtuk. Az egyébként egységesnek gondolt előkészítés igencsak heterogénnek bizonyult. Bár antibiotikum adása minden alkalommal történt, annak hatóanyaga, dózisa, időpontja orvosonként eltérő volt. A végzett mintavételek közül 102 esetben igazolt a szövettani vizsgálat prosztatarákot (47,5%). Szövődményt 34 esetben észleltünk, beavatkozásra 13 esetben volt szükség. Megbeszélés és következtetések: A találati pontosság az irodalmi adatokhoz hasonló. A szövődmények száma, aránya is összességében elfogadható. Az értékelés orvosra lebontott adatai alkalmat adnak módosításokra, egységes, standard körülmények biztosítására.
Prosztatabiopszia után kialakult kétoldali psoas tályog esete
Authors: Varga Dániel , Murányi Mihály , Flaskó Tibor
Published: December 2022

Bevezetés: A psoas tályog kialakulása prosztatabiopszia után az irodalmi adatok szerint extrém ritka, kétoldali, műtéti beavatkozást igénylő tályogot a paralumbalis izomzat érintettségével pedig eddig még nem írtak le. Jelen dolgozatunkban egy antibiotikum-védelemben elvégzett transrectalis prosztatabiopszia után kialakuló kétoldali psoas tályog sikeres kezelését mutatjuk be. Esetismertetés: A 62 éves férfi beteg a prosztatabiopszia után 8 nappal uroszepszis tüneteivel jelentkezett. Célzott antibiotikum-terápia ellenére a beteg szeptikus állapota nem javult, paraparesis alakult ki. MR-vizsgálat mindkét psoas majorban és a jobb oldali paralumbalis izomzatban tályogokat írt le, továbbá epiduralis phlegmonét. Utóbbi miatt idegsebészeti intézetben az epiduralis tályog evakuációját elvégezték. Ismételt MR-vizsgálat az abscessusok további növekedését jelezte, így klinikánkon a tályogokat megnyitottuk és drenáltuk. Célzott antibiotikum-kezelést végeztünk. Kontroll MR-vizsgálat a gyulladásos folyamat regresszióját írta le. Ezt követően intézetünkben laparoszkópos radikális prostatectomia történt. A beteg a legutóbbi, 2019. februári kontrollvizsgálat alapján panaszmentes. Következtetések: Esetbemutatásunk felhívja a figyelmet arra, hogy még a protokoll szerint végzett legegyszerűbb beavatkozás után is kialakulhat életet veszélyeztető, súlyos állapot, valamint arra, hogy a fluorokinolon-rezisztens törzsek számának növekedése ezen antibiotikumok hatékonyságát egyre jobban csökkenti. Amennyiben a képalkotó vizsgálat nem tud egyértelműen állást foglalni, a gyulladás hátterének tisztázásához szükség van a vizsgálat megismétlésére vagy további képalkotó vizsgálatokra, főleg abban az esetben, ha a gyulladásos paraméterek nem javulnak a célzott antibiotikum-terápia ellenére sem.
Vulnerability and adaptation to climate change in Rajasthan
Authors: Mohapatra Geetilaxmi , George Meera , Pandey Suchitra
Published: December 2022

Climate change is a globally challenging phenomenon that is particularly
distressing for the agricultural sector, as agricultural products and
productivity depend on the climate. This study analyses agricultural
households? perception of climate change and the adaption strategies
undertaken to mitigate it. A purposive random sampling technique is used to
collect primary data from a survey conducted in the arid and semi-arid
regions of Rajasthan, India. The study employs logistic regression to
identify the determinants of the perception of climate change and adaptation
strategies, while a livelihood vulnerability index is constructed to
indicate households? degree of vulnerability, focusing especially on
adaptive capacity. Out of the total sample of 600 households analysed, 534
perceive a long-term change in the climate. Farmers? adaptation strategies
include crop diversification, mixed cropping, crop rotation, and farm ponds.
The major factors affecting adaptation are the educational status of the
household head, farming experience, type of financial support, agricultural
training, land size, access to agricultural institutions, distance between
the household and farmland, and storage. The livelihood vulnerability index
shows that most of the households are moderately vulnerable. The study
recommends an efficient weather forecasting system and effective government
policies to improve credit availability, financial support, and agricultural
mechanization.
Relative amenability of Banach algebras
Authors: Khodakarami Wania , Ghahramani Hoger , Feizi Esmaeil
Published: December 2022

Let A be a Banach algebra and I be a closed ideal of A. We say that A is amenable relative to I, if A/I is an amenable Banach algebra. We study the relative amenability of Banach algebras and investigate the relative amenability of triangular Banach algebras and Banach algebras associated to locally compact groups. We generalize some of the previous known results by applying the concept of relative amenability of Banach algebras, especially, we present a generalization of Johnson?s theorem in the concept of relative amenability.
On category of T-rough sets
Authors: Khodaii Somayyeh , Estaji Ali , Anvariyeh Seid
Published: December 2022

We introduce three new categories in which their objects are T-approximation
spaces and they are denoted by NTAprS, RNTAprS, and LNTAprS. We verify the
existence or nonexistence of products and coproducts in these three
categories and characterized theirs epimorphisms and monomorphisms. We
discuss equalizer and coequalizer of a pair of morphisms in the three
categories. We introduce the notion of idempotent approximation space, and
we show that idempotent approximation spaces and right upper natural
transformations form a category, which is denoted by RNTApr2S. Let CS be the
category of all closure spaces and closure preserving mappings. We define a
functor F from RNTApr2S to CS and show that F is a full functor and every
object of CS has a corefiection along F.
On Slater like inequality for vectors transformed by a doubly stochastic matrix with control function
Authors: Niezgoda Marek
Published: December 2022

In this work, we deal with a Slater type inequality designed for a symmetric
convex function and for a collection of vectors transformed by a doubly
stochastic matrix. In doing so, we use an additional convex control
function. In the case when the composition of the control function and of
the underlying convex function is Schur-concave, such an approach leads to a
refinement of the standard Slater inequality. Special cases are also
considered.
On modeling heavy tailed medical care insurance data via a new member of T-X family
Authors: Ahmad Zubair , Mahmoudi Eisa , Hamedani G.G. , Kharazmi Omid
Published: December 2022

Heavy tailed distributions are worthwhile in modeling heavy tailed data. The researchers are often in search of such distributions to provide best fit to heavy tailed data. In this article, a new T-X family member called, a new exponential cosine-X family is introduced. A special sub-model of the proposed family, called, a new exponential cosine Weibull distribution is studied in detail. Some mathematical properties along with the useful series expansion of distribution and density functions of the proposed class are obtained. Two useful characterizations of this family are also provided. We consider the maximum likelihood and Bayesian estimation procedures to estimate the parameters of the proposed family. Monti Carlo simulation study is done to access the behavior of these estimators. For the illustrative purposes, a real-life application of the proposed family to a heavy tailed medical care insurance data set is provided. Finally, Bayesian analysis and performance of Gibbs sampling for the medical care insurance data are also carried out.
The Journey of the Hero: Archetypes of Earthly Adventure and Spiritual Passage in 1 Nephi
Authors: Harris Tod R
Published: December 2022

Study of the varied metaphorical levels of the Book of Mormon continues to yield new insights into the message and meaning of that book. Several prominent typological readings of aspects of the Book of Mormon have been published, but despite calls for such an effort, little inquiry into its possible archetypal levels, or what has been called "the mythic dimension" of the book, has yet been undertaken. As an initial attempt at such an endeavor, I compare certain events described in 1 Nephi with the elements of one prominent mythic archetype, the hero’s journey, as elucidated by Joseph Campbell in his famous The Hero with a Thousand Faces. A strong correlation between the hero’s journey archetype and the events from 1 Nephi is intriguing and seems to demonstrate at least the presence of mythic patterns in the Book of Mormon. This leads to some preliminary conclusions about what the apparent presence of such patterns might signify.
The Lord Will Redeem His People: Adoptive Covenant and Redemption in the Old Testament and Book of Mormon
Authors: Lane Jennifer Clark
Published: December 2022

In the text of the Old Testament Yahweh is described as the Redeemer of Israel. A redeemer in Israelite society was a close family member who was responsible to help his enslaved kinsmen by buying them out of bondage. A comparable family relationship is created between the Lord and individuals by the making of covenants and the giving of a new name. The adoptive covenant becomes the basis for the Lord’s acts of redemption. This pattern of adoptive redemption can be seen in both the Old Testament and the Book of Mormon. The Book of Mormon identifies Yahweh, the God and Redeemer of the Old Testament, with Jesus Christ. It further explains that redemption from spiritual bondage comes through the ransom price of his blood and is available to those who enter into adoptive covenants, which create a familial relationship and allow the Lord to act as their redeemer.
Humedad crítica, transición vítrea, y propiedades cromáticas de confites duros enriquecidos con aceite esencial de eucalipto y tintura de Hibiscus sabdariffa L.
Authors: Salamanca-Grosso Guillermo , Tapiero-Cuellar José Libardo
Published: December 2022

El objetivo de este trabajo se centró en el desarrollo de caramelos duros coloreados con sacarosa cristalizada, glucosa y ácido cítrico, adicionando aromas de fresa, cereza y uva. Se usó como colorante natural el extracto de Hibiscus sabdariffa L. (Malvaceae: Hybiscus) y aceite esencial de eucalipto, manteniendo el contenido de humedad en 13,6 g/100 g y los azucares en 41,5 g/100 g, con un nivel de ácido cítrico de 0,80 g/100 g. Los aromas fueron incorporados a tres niveles distintos (0,1; 0,2 y 0,3), el colorante natural de H. sabdariffa (0,8; 1,6 y 2,5) g /100 g, y el aceite esencial de eucalipto en 300 mg/kg. En la evaluación de las formulaciones resultantes se consideraron los parámetros de humedad, humedad en el equilibrio e isoterma de sorción a 15, 25 y 35 ºC que fueron a su vez proyectados a través del modelo de Gordon y Taylor, que a la postre se evidenció como una relación lineal. Se evalúan de forma general las relaciones entre humedad critica, temperatura de transición vítrea y actividad de agua y los parámetros de cromaticidad (CIELab) en función de los componentes adicionados.

Published: December 2022

É fato que com a evolução das práticas pedagógicas, outras formas de ensinar    e aprender vão surgindo, como a utilização das ferramentas tecnológicas como o  vídeo-minuto. A temática do vídeo-minuto relaciona-se à questão da identidade dos afrodescendentes que não expõem o que pensam sobre a situação do negro no Brasil. Assim, o objetivo foi verificar e descrever o uso do gênero digital vídeo-minuto como possibilidade de um posicionamento dos alunos afrodescendentes contra o racismo enfrentado na escola e no  cotidiano. A metodologia adotada foi a pesquisa-ação, com natureza qualitativa, mediante a leitura referencial e ficcional em sala de aula. Os teóricos norteadores da abordagem que sustentaram este estudo foram Bakhtin (2000), Bronckart (2007), Marcuschi (2008), Almeida (2019), Quijano (2005) e Schwarcz (1993), além da BNCC (2018). Com o desenvolvimento desta pesquisa, espera-se fomentar mais discussões  sobre o negro no Brasil, estimular a opinião dos alunos sobre seu próprio contexto.
