Published: May 2021

Teaching is a challenging and complex process, using an effective, creative and playful teaching practice is necessary in schools. The aim of this study is to characterize the pedagogical approach MoE (Mantle of the Expert) and its aspects for the development of learning. This approach is an active methodology that converges to the new challenges of teaching, as the MoE is based on the experience, dramatization, reflection and problem solving, in which this method has three central elements: the team of specialists, the client and their task . In this imaginary context, students simulate and immerse themselves in their mission as a specialist in a certain area and need to deliver a final product to their client. This article will take a theoretical approach to MoE, in addition to establishing correlations both with BNCC and with education theorists, from classics to contemporaries, for learning purposes.

RESUMOA crise econômica mundial de 2008, que atingiu diretamente a Islândia, impulsionou o aprofundamento da experiência democrática naquele país através da elaboração de um novo projeto de Constituição. Esta experiência contém duas inovações fundamentais: o projeto de Constituição foi escrito mediante crowdsourcing, além da Assembleia Constituinte ter operado em paralelo com a legislatura regular. Tomando isso em consideração, este artigo objetiva analisar descritivamente, partindo da teoria da constituição e da teoria política e utilizando o método dialógico na observação do direito constitucional como uma ciência de textos e contextos, o contexto de elaboração deste projeto, destacando suas peculiaridades, e dimensionando os motivos do seu insucesso de aprovação. Como conclusão são propostas algumas reflexões críticas sobre as potencialidades e os limites da singular experiência islandesa que, contudo, se relacionam com grandes questões que se colocam para o constitucionalismo hodierno, especialmente no que tange à relação entre constitucionalismo e democracia.PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Projeto de Constituição Islandesa de 2011; Constitucionalismo contemporâneo; Crowdsourcing; Democracia; Crise econômica mundial.ABSTRACT The 2008 global economic crisis, which directly hit Iceland, improved the deepening of the democratic experience in that country through the elaboration of a new constitution project.

A Comparative Evaluation of Human Gingival Tissue Response to Silk & M-Polytetrafluoroethylene Sutures – A Clinico-Histological Study
Authors: Naykodi Trupti Bhaskar , Shinde Aditya Kiran
Published: May 2021

BACKGROUND Sutures require specific physical characteristics and properties such as good tensile strength, dimensional stability, lack of memory, knot security and sufficient flexibility to avoid damage to the oral mucosa. The strength and adherence of the sutured tissue increases over time. Tissue reaction characteristics involve varying degree of inflammatory reactions. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to assess clinically and histologically human gingival tissue reaction to silk & m- polytetrafluoroethylene (m-PTFE) sutures in periodontal surgical procedures. METHODS The present study is a prospective clinical randomised split mouth study. A total of 15 patients of both sexes were included in the study. All the patients were provided with thorough scaling and root planing before the commencement of the study. The patients were re-evaluated at 4 weeks and sutures were placed in the surgical area where there was a need for excision of gingival tissue as a part of routine periodontal surgery. After placement of sutures, the change of bite, change of slack, clinical changes in plaque index, modified gingival index & sulcus bleeding index and the histological changes in mean thickness of the peri sutural epithelial sleeve, proportion of inflammatory cells to peri sutural epithelial cells, diameter of the connective tissue inflammatory infiltrate (measured in mm) from the periphery of the epithelialization of the sutures from the insertion day (day 0) to the day of scheduled surgery (day 7) were recorded. RESULTS Silk sutures presented an increase in the change of bite and change of slack of the suture loop than m-PTFE. Diameter of the connective tissue infiltrate was greater around the multifilament suture (SILK) as compared to the monofilament suture (mPTFE) though the difference was not statistically significant. (P-value = 0.321). Monofilament suture (m-PTFE) showed the least amount of inflammatory infiltrate around the suture track. The proportion of inflammatory cells to epithelial cells was statistically not significant between the two suture materials (P-value = 0.82). CONCLUSIONS Though the clinical and histological parameters are statistically non-significant, mpolytetrafluoroethylene has shown better results compared to silk. Silk sutures cause a more extensive inflammatory tissue reaction in an environment characterized by moisture and infectious potential compared to m-PTFE sutures.

Surface Modification of Dental Implants - A Review
Authors: Anjum Shamaa , Rajasekar Arvina
Published: May 2021

The use of dental implants for the replacement of missing teeth has increased in the last 30 years. The success rates for implant placement depend on a series of both biological and clinical steps which starts with primary stability that is being provided by the amount, quality and the distribution of bone within the proposed implant site. The most important factor in implant osseointegration is surface roughness, which shows increased osteoblast activity at 1 to 100 μm of the surface roughness when compared to a smooth surface. Rough surfaces have excellent osseointegration than smooth surfaces, but the results of research have been diverse, and it is evident that multiple treatments provide good results. The surfaces of a dental implant have been modified in several ways to improve its biocompatibility and speed up osseointegration. Literature says that any surface modification provides a good surface for osseointegration of the implant when the surface roughness is about 0.44 ~ 8.68 μm. It is also said that acid etching and coating are the most preferred methods for creating good roughness of the implant surface. From animal studies, it is known that implant surface modifications provided by biomolecular coating seemed to enhance the osseointegration by promoting peri-implant bone formation in the early stages of healing. It also seemed to improve histomorphometric analysis and biomechanical testing results. This article reviews the surface modifications of dental implants for the achievement of better success rates. Various methods are used to modify the topography or the chemistry of the implant surfaces which includes acid etching, anodic oxidation, blasting, treatment with fluoride, and calcium phosphate coating. These modifications provide a faster and a stronger osseointegration.1 Recently, hydrophilic properties added to the roughened surfaces or some osteogenic peptides coated on the surfaces shows higher biocompatibility and have induced faster osseointegration compared to the existing modified surfaces. With development in surface engineering techniques, new information on the properties, behaviour, and the reaction of various materials could be discovered which in turn allows the discovery of new materials, modification techniques and design of bio implants for the future.

Published: May 2021

Students' difficulty in understanding English language as a subject usually leads to poor learning outcomes. The problem is, however, observed to be getting worse due to the unavailability of suitable learning media for educators and students. This research was, therefore, conducted to develop an English for Beginner pocketbook media to improve student learning outcomes. Meanwhile, pocketbook media is an alternative packaging of information through the use of user efficiency elements. This research was developed based on the Borg & Gall model with the data collected using questionnaires, tests, and documentation and analyzed through Independent Sample T-test. The results showed the sig. (2-tailed) < sig. level (0,000 < 0.05), therefore, Ha was accepted while H0 was rejected. It was discovered that average students learning outcomes increased to 83,4 and learning completeness by 83.33% after receiving the treatment in the form of the English for Beginner pocketbook media. This shows this material is feasible to be implemented as a learning medium due to its effectiveness in improving the learning outcomes of fifth-grade students of MI Masaran 1 Trenggalek.

Authors: Mansouri Ammar , Hamidatou Alghem Lylia , Mokhtari Oum El-Kheir , Benamar Mohammed El-Amine
Published: May 2021

Psoriasis is a dermatological disease that affects 2–3% of the Algerian population. Selenium has a positive impact on psoriasis. Selenium plays an important role in protecting free radical damage as a component of the glutathione peroxidase enzyme. The objective of this investigation was to assess the status of selenium in the hair of Algerian patients suffering from psoriasis. Fifty-eight scalp hair samples were collected from Algerian patients with psoriasis, classified by gender and four age groups: 36 females and 22 males, aged between 9 and 79 years. Thirty healthy subjects aged 9–74 years were also surveyed for control purposes. Selenium content was measured for all scalp hair samples using thek0-standardization of neutron activation analysis. The average selenium concentration for controls and patients were 0.39 ± 0.18 and 0.28 ± 0.13 μg/g respectively. Selenium concentration for female and male controls and patients, were 0.35 ± 0.17, 0.47 ± 0.19, 0.28 ± 0.14, and 0.28 ± 0.11 μg/g, respectively. There is a significant difference (p < 0.05) between selenium level in patients and in controls. Selenium concentrations in psoriatics’ scalp hair can be affected by both gender and age. Measured selenium contents have been approved by the quality assurance and quality control procedure (QA/QC).

Published: May 2021

The human remains recovered from the famous Bjerringhøj Viking Age burial in Denmark have been missing for more than 100 years. Recently, an assemblage of bones resembling those recorded at Bjerringhøj—some with adherent textiles—were discovered in a misplaced box in the National Museum of Denmark. Here, the authors use new skeletal and comparative textile analyses, along with radiocarbon dating, to confirm that the bones are indeed those from the Bjerringhøj burial. This rediscovery offers new data for interpreting Viking Age clothing, including the presence of long trousers, and emphasises the importance of reinvestigating old archaeological collections housed within museums and archives.

Published: May 2021

On December 31, 2019, the Wuhan Municipal Health Commission reported an increase in the incidence of pneumonia from an unknown cause. Shortly after, SARS-CoV-19 was identified as the responsible coronavirus for the heavy progress of the disease, which can manifest itself distinctively in different individuals. Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) triggered a pandemic because of its high contagiousness before COVID-19 associated symptoms actually appear. In response to the rapid and continuous spread of the virus around the globe governments have mobilized their forces to restrict contact and thus avoid further infection and invested significant resources in treatment and prevention strategies to tackle COVID-19. As a result, US FDA and EMA have granted emergency use authorization for two mRNA-based vaccines, namely the vaccines developed by BioNTech/Pfizer and Moderna, for use in the USA and Europe.

Transdiaphragmatic intercostal hernia, in which the abdominal contents of the hernia protrude through the diaphragm and the thoracic wall defect. is a very rare type of hernia with only a few cases having been reported in the literature. That type of hernia is usually manifested in male patients after trauma, penetrating or blunt. It is frequently presented with a palpable thoracic mass and pain. The indicated treatment is surgery. We present the case of a 60-year-old female admitted to the hospital after a car accident and suffered multiple rib fractures (6th, 7th, 8th right ribs / 7th, 8th, 9th left ribs), as well as flail thorax, hemothorax bilaterally, left subcutaneous emphysema and swelling of soft tissues of the right lateral thoracoabdominal wall. CT scan revealed herniation of hepatic parenchyma and intestinal loops into the thorax. The patient was treated surgically, and his postoperative course was uneventful. We also review the relevant literature concerning this transdiaphragmatic, intercostal hernia and identify 42 cases. Transdiaphragmatic intercostal hernia is a rare condition, usually manifested in male patients after trauma, penetrating or blunt. It is frequently presented with a palpable thoracic mass and pain. The indicated treatment is surgery.

Authors: Noubouwo Antoine
Published: May 2021

En tant que gouvernement de proximité, les villes sont au coeur du processus d’innovation urbaine et sociale. Dès 2016, dans une perspective d’amélioration continue des services aux citoyens, la Ville de Gatineau a innové en lançant une application web et mobile intitulée Infoterritoire. Cet outil, une première au Québec, permet de réaliser des cartes, des tableaux et des graphiques à partir de données statistiques et géomatiques fiables. L’Infoterritoire est particulièrement utile aux employés, aux organismes communautaires, aux gens d’affaires, aux établissements d’enseignement et aux chercheurs qui veulent analyser des phénomènes urbains en utilisant les données sociodémographiques. Dans le présent article, nous tenterons de montrer en quoi l’Infoterritoire est un outil d’innovation sociale, d’éducation et de démocratisation de la cartographie urbaine, même en contexte de pandémie, qui exige l’adaptation des villes et qui change considérablement les modes de vie des citoyens à l’échelle mondiale.

Published: May 2021

Depuis la dernière crise financière internationale de 2008, où les banques ont sévèrement été critiquées, le secteur de la technologie financière (ou fintech) n’a cessé de se développer et d’innover, entretenant avec le secteur bancaire des relations à la fois aux allures de compétition et de collaboration. Même si l’utilisation de la technologie en soutien aux services financiers n’est pas récente, son essor au cours de la dernière décennie, notamment son adoption par les institutions financières, semble avoir accéléré le virage numérique et renforcé ses capacités à affronter une nouvelle crise. Les banques constituent l’une des industries dont l’activité est le moins affectée par les restrictions qu’impose la pandémie de COVID-19. Anthony Rjeily est associé chez Ernst & Young (EY) et leader national de ladite firme en transformation numérique et innovation. Il cumule plus de 25 années d’expérience et accompagne des entreprises de différents secteurs dans leurs projets de croissance par le biais de l’engagement numérique. Il nous explique dans cet entretien en quoi la fintech a rendu les banques commerciales plus agiles et leur a permis de rapidement s’adapter à l’avènement de la pandémie.

Authors: Coco Danilo , Leanza Silvana
Published: May 2021

Management of malignant diseases in elderly patients has been a global clinical issue because of increased life expectancy worldwide. Currently, pancreatic adenocarcinoma mainly occurs after 60 years of age, and its prognosis remains poor despite modest improvements in recent decades. Surgical resection is the only potentially curative treatment for pancreatic cancer. Resection of the pancreas, either by pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) or laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD) is a complex surgical procedure with a high rate of morbidity and mortality. However, mortality rates after pancreatic surgery have dropped to less than 2-5% at experienced centers. Whereas, complication rates are high, reaching at least 30% in many centers. Mortality also increases proportionally with age viz. 6.7% of patients aged 65-69 years, 9.3% of patients aged 70-79 years, and 15.5% of patients aged 80 years or older. The present review article delineates clinical outcomes along with safety, morbidity and mortality after PD or LPD in elderly, especially in octogenarian patients.
