Authors: Farley Jessica B. , Stein Joshua , Keogh Justin W. L. , Woods Carl T. , Milne Nikki 
Published: April 2020

Abstract
Background
Understanding the relationships between physical fitness attributes and sport-specific technical skills may assist with the establishment of beneficial training interventions. The aim of this systematic review was to determine if physical fitness qualities were associated with performance of sport-specific technical skills in female, team-based ball players.

Methods
Five databases (MEDLINE, EMBASE, SPORTDiscus, ProQuest, and Scopus) were searched for relevant studies up to April 15, 2019. Full-text articles investigating relationships between physical fitness and sport-specific technical skills in female, team-based ball players were included. Methodological quality of included studies was appraised using a modified Downs and Black checklist. Data synthesis was conducted to determine the summary of evidence based on the number of significantly associated relationships divided by the total relationships assessed. An individual relationship was defined as a reported result examining the association between a single physical fitness variable and a single sport-specific technical skill.

Results
Data synthesis of grouped female ball players from 41 included studies revealed three clear associations: (i) body composition and defensive technical skills (19/29; 66%), (ii) agility and movement with a ball (4/6; 67%), and (iii) coordination and movement with a ball (3/5; 60%). An uncertain association exists between cardiorespiratory fitness and defensive technical skills (2/5; 40%). No association or an unknown conclusion (< 5 relationships reported) exists between all remaining physical fitness attributes and sport-specific technical skills. Sub-analyses revealed clear associations between body composition and throwing/shooting (using hands) in junior ball players (15/15; 100%) and with movement with a ball in elite (6/9; 67%) and senior (6/6; 100%) ball players. Three uncertain associations were found between offensive technical skills and agility in elite ball players (3/8; 38%), and with speed in elite (6/14; 43%) and junior (7/18; 39%) female ball players.

Conclusion
There is limited evidence available to demonstrate relationships between physical fitness qualities and sport-specific technical skills in female, team-based ball players. This lack of association is possibly due to reductionist methods in available literature and a lack of research in female ball players globally.

Spontaneous pneumothorax associated with primary lung cancer: a retrospective study
Authors: Abu Arab Walid , Ramadan Abdel-maguid 
Published: April 2020

Abstract
Background
The occurrence of spontaneous pneumothorax in primary lung cancer patients is infrequent. No exact theory could explain its mechanism of association. It could be either a primary manifestation or a late complication of primary lung cancer. The aim of this study is to analyze the association of the spontaneous pneumothorax with the primary lung cancer.

Results
A retrospective revision of patients’ files that presented with spontaneous pneumothorax and admitted at the Cardiothoracic Surgery Department during the period between January 2000 and January 2018 was done. Twenty-three patients were included in this study. Seventy-four percent of them were males (n = 17). Age ranged between 48 and 77 years (62.3 ± 7.3 years). Twelve patients (52%) were known to have advanced primary lung cancer, while seven patients (30%) had SPnx as a primary presentation for the primary lung cancer that was discovered during radiological assessment for SPnx. The remaining four patients had SPnx and were treated via surgery. In three of them, bullectomy and pleurodesis was performed; the postoperative histo-pathological examination of excised bullae revealed a primary non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). While in one patient, who had bullectomy, the primary lung cancer was discovered accidently during surgery.

Conclusion
Pneumothorax as a first manifestation for lung cancer is infrequent. Its relation to the prognosis has not been yet clear. Recurrent spontaneous pneumothorax in old, heavy smoker patient, or emphysema patient should raise the suspicion for the possibility of association of lung carcinoma.

Published: April 2020

PURPOSE In this study, we report survival data of the largest cohort of patients with breast cancer in Sri Lanka. PATIENTS AND METHODS All female patients with histologically confirmed breast cancer treated at a single unit at the National Cancer Institute of Sri Lanka between 1994 and 2006 were included in the study. Clinical records were reviewed and data obtained on the following clinical and pathologic factors: age, histology, stage at presentation, grade, and immunohistochemistry profile. Treatment details such as type of surgery and use of systemic chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, trastuzumab, and radiation therapy were also collected. In localized cancer, disease-free survival (DFS) was the primary end point, while in patients who presented with de novo metastases, progression-free survival (PFS) was the primary end point. RESULTS A significant proportion of patients presented with de novo metastases (14%) and locally advanced disease (18%). While 57% of patients had hormone-sensitive tumors, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 overexpression was seen in 14%, and 29% had triple-negative tumors. Only 3% of patients with localized disease were treated with breast-conserving surgery, with the rest undergoing modified radical mastectomy. The 5- year DFS rate was 71.6% (95% CI, 69.2 to 74.0) in patients with localized disease. The median PFS in patients with metastatic disease was 20 months (95% CI, 18 to 22 months), while the median overall survival was 30 months (95% CI, 32 to 35 months). On multivariable analysis, immunohistochemical group and stage were prognostic factors in localized disease, while in patients with metastases, immunohistochemical group and tumor grade were associated with PFS. CONCLUSION More effective screening and early detection programs along with increasing breast-conserving surgery will improve breast cancer outcomes in Sri Lanka.

Published: April 2020

The splenic artery aneurysm (SAA) is rare clinical entity which is the third most common intra-abdominal aneurysm. Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs) are rare malignancies which comprise less than 2% of all pancreatic tumors. Non-functioning pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors set forth up to 90% of all PNETs. Sixty-seven-year-old female presented to our polyclinic with increasing pain in the left upper quadrant in the previous three months. A computed tomographic angiography revealed 13x13x12 cm sized regular bounded aneurysmatic expansion of medium part of splenic artery. In addition there was a 8x7 mm sized hypoecoic lesion in the distal pancreatic tissue. Distal pancreatectomy, splenic aneurysm resection and splenectomy was performed. Pathological results revealed that there was a 12 cm sized giant true splenic aneurysm and 0.7 cm sized neuroendocrine tumor in the pancreatic tissue. This manuscript is presentation of surgical approach to a case with coexistence of these two rare conditions.

Authors: Ma Tao , Yang Wen-zeng , Cui Zhen-yu , Zhao Chunli 
Published: April 2020

Objective: To discuss the clinical application of laparoscopic anatomical adrenalectomy via the renal cortex surface in the operation of adrenal masses.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on 231 patients with adrenal masses who were received and cured in the urology department of the Affiliated Hospital of Hebei University from July 2016 to January 2019. All patients received retroperitoneal adrenalectomy by means of laparoscopic anatomical adrenalectomy via the renal cortex surface. Operation duration, bleeding volume, postoperative complications, retention time of the drainage tube were measured and analyzed, and postoperative follow-up surveys were administered.
Results: All cases were successfully operated. Two cases were converted to open surgery due to the presence of large adrenal tumors, and the patients suffered no significant complications. The mean operation duration, bleeding volume and retention time of the drainage tube were 31 minutes, 20 mL and 1.2±0.6 d, respectively. In terms of the postoperative pathology of adrenal tumors, 183 cases were shown to have adenomas, 34 had pheochromocytomas, nine had schwannomas, 3 had metastases from lung cancer, and two had sarcomas. A total of 174 patients were followed up for three to 18 months. Only one case with sarcoma that relapsed within half a year of the operation.
Conclusion: In the treatment of adrenal masses, laparoscopic anatomical adrenalectomy via the renal cortex surface has many advantages including the large operation space, clear view of anatomical markers, little bleeding, small trauma, few postoperative complications, simple operational procedures and short learning curves. This technique needs clinical promotion.

What Drives Risk Perception? A Global Survey with Financial Professionals and Laypeople
Authors: Holzmeister Felix , Huber Jürgen , Kirchler Michael , Lindner Florian , Weitzel Utz , Zeisberger Stefan 
Published: April 2020

Risk is an integral part of many economic decisions and is vitally important in finance. Despite extensive research on decision making under risk, little is known about how risks are actually perceived by financial professionals, the key players in global financial markets. In a large-scale survey experiment with 2,213 finance professionals and 4,559 laypeople in nine countries representing ~50% of the world’s population and more than 60% of the world’s gross domestic product, we expose participants to return distributions with equal expected return, and we systematically vary the distributions’ next three higher moments. Of these, skewness is the only moment that systematically affects financial professionals’ perception of financial risk. Strikingly, variance does not influence risk perception, even though return volatility is the most common risk measure in finance in both academia and the industry. When testing other, compound risk measures, the probability to experience losses is the strongest predictor of what is perceived as being risky. Analyzing professionals’ propensity to invest, skewness and loss probability also have strong predictive power, while volatility and kurtosis have some additional effect. Our results are very similar for laypeople, and they are robust across and within countries with different cultural backgrounds, as well as for different job fields of professionals. This paper was accepted by Yuval Rottenstreich, decision analysis.

Published: April 2020

Background/Aims The majority of maternal deaths occur during labour, delivery, or within the first 4 hours after birth. This can be reduced by the care that midwives provide. At Mulago Hospital, little is documented on midwives' current practice and their perception of care offered during labor and delivery. The number of maternal and neonatal deaths as a result of preventable causes such as postpartum haemorrhage, obstructed labour, ruptured uterus and sepsis remains high. The aim of this study was to document the current practice of midwives, explore midwives' perception towards practice and identify factors that influence practice during birth in Uganda, to identify possible areas for improvement. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted of midwives working in the three labour wards at the Mulago National referral hospital: the general ward, the private ward and the midwifery-led ward. Midwives' perceptions were explored using a semi-structured questionnaire, which asked midwives about their current practice and their perception of the care offered. Findings Care was found to be lacking in several areas. Only one-fifth (20.0%) of midwives reported always checking temperature every 4 hours. Only 20.5% reported that women are always supported in being mobile during labour. Less than half of the midwives (44.4%) knew the recommended drugs for managing the third stage of labour. Infection prevention practices were poor. Only 54% of midwives knew how to prepare magnesium sulphate for management of severe pre-eclampsia and eclampsia. Overall, the general labour ward was found to have the most gaps in midwives' knowledge. Lack of continuing education, supplies, teamwork and clinical guidelines were reported to affect practice. Staff shortages and midwives' decisions being underlooked by obstetricians were also reported to affect practice. Conclusions Overall, the study found that midwifery practice is suboptimal in key areas such as infection prevention, use of a partograph, and management of pre-eclampsia and eclampsia. Continuous professional development, provision of resources, and strengthening teamwork are recommended to improve maternal health outcomes at Mulago Hospital.
High-sensitivity chirped tapered fiber-Bragg-grating-based Fabry–Perot cavity for strain measurements
Authors: Markowski Konrad , Araszkiewicz Piotr , Bojarczuk Juliusz , Perlicki Krzysztof 
Published: April 2020

In this Letter, a novel, to the best of our knowledge, Fabry–Perot cavity, based on Bragg grating technology for temperature and strain monitoring, is presented. Such a structure consists of two linearly chirped fiber Bragg gratings of a significant length written in a thermally tapered optical fiber. The technological process for manufacturing such a grating allows for utilization of almost every tapered fiber, by means of its profile and also phase masks with various chirp ratios. For this type of structure, a method for strain discrimination based on monitoring of the cavity length is proposed, enabling potential multiplexation of the sensor of two structures, which have the similar reflection spectra, by means of their spectral position. The utilized sensing mechanism allowed for achieving strain sensitivity by means of the cavity length change as high as 5 µm/µɛ. Also, as it has been experimentally shown a structure can also be employed for measurements of temperature, with the sensitivity equal to 8.96 pm/°C.
Impact of tin-oxide nanoparticles on improving the carrier transport in the Ag/p-GaN interface of InGaN/GaN micro-light-emitting diodes by originating inhomogeneous Schottky barrier height
Authors: Lee Jae Hyeok , Islam Abu Bashar Mohammad Hamidul , Kim Tae Kyoung , Cha Yu-Jung , Kwak Joon Seop 
Published: April 2020

The effect of tin-oxide (SnO) nanoparticles, which are obtained by indium-tin-oxide (ITO) treatment, on the p-GaN surface of GaN-based flip-chip blue micro-light-emitting diode (

μ

-LED) arrays is investigated. A thin Ag layer is deposited on the ITO-treated p-GaN surface by sputtering. SnO nanoparticles originate from inhomogeneous Schottky barrier heights (SBHs) at Ag/p-GaN contact. Therefore, effective SBH is reduced, which causes carrier transport into the

μ

-LED to enhance. 10 nm thick ITO-treated

μ

-LEDs show better optoelectronic characteristics among fabricated

μ

-LEDs owing to improved ohmic contact and highly reflective p-type reflectors. Basically, SnO nanoparticles help to make good ohmic contact, which results in improved carrier transport into

μ

-LEDs and thus results in increased optoelectronic performances.
Conceição Silva, "the architect of tourism"
Authors: Lobo Susana 
Published: April 2020

In 1973, Gustavo Gili published the Spanish version of Planning and Design for Leisure, by Georges Candilis. In the Introduction, the author emphasised that "from the moment we admit that mass leisure is in the process of becoming a crucial phenomenon of contemporary civilisation, we have the duty ¼ to clarify its true meaning, its content, its varied and multiple aspects, as well as the growing and preponderant role it is called to have in our society". From the disciplinary point of view, the situation demanded "a new architecture: the architecture of leisure".
For Candilis, one of the founders of Team 10, tourism projects associated with the emerging welfare and mass consumer society represented the opportunity to test new urban planning and housing models which, as an alternative to the practices inherited from modernity, reclaimed denser patterns of territorial occupation and more diversified formulas of living. Many of the principles expressed by Candilis had already been announced by José Antonio Coderch, also a member of Team 10, in the unbuilt project of the Torre Valentina holiday complex, presented in 1959 at the last CIAM. The difference was now in the scale of the interventions. Responding to the democratic ideal of "leisure for the greatest number", there is an evolution in the traditional forms of tourism exploration, with the hotel giving way to the holiday mega-structure and the city of leisure. In Portugal, the protagonist of this transition would be Francisco Conceição Silva, “the architect of tourism”.

Kowalczyk Marcin, Człowiek kultury druku w świecie przyszłości – kino science fiction wobec teorii środków przekazu Marshalla McLuhana [Man of Print Culture in the Future World – Science Fiction Cinema and Marshall McLuhan’s Media Theory]. „Przestrzenie Teorii” 32. Poznań 2019, Adam Mickiewicz University Press, pp. 239–255. ISSN 1644-6763. DOI 10.14746/pt.2019.32.12.
This article shows the way of presenting the characters who represent print culture in science fiction cinema. All the printed artifacts, like literature, books and letters, are defined according to Marshall McLuhan’s media theory. The analysis is based mostly on the movie Her (dir. Spike Jonze, 2013) and discusses how SF movies adapt and transform the twentieth-century predictions concerning print as a medium. This approach allows us to avoid a simple interpretation of the problem, where books or print become merely a sign of civilization that has passed. Furthermore, McLuhan’s theory helps effectively reveal the complex motivations of the characters who are shaped by a specific medium.
O-bi, o-ba: Koniec cywilizacji – postpiśmienny świat Piotra Szulkina

Pietrzak Maciej, O-bi, o-ba: Koniec cywilizacji – postpiśmienny świat Piotra Szulkina [O-Bi, O-Ba: The End of Civilization – The Postliterate World of Piotr Szulkin]. „Przestrzenie Teorii” nr 32. Poznań 2019, Adam Mickiewicz University Press, pp. 273–284. ISSN 1644-6763. DOI 10.14746/pt.2019.32.14.
Piotr Szulkin made his mark in the history of cinema primarily as the author of disturbing visions of the future. His four films made between 1979 and 1985 comprised the science-fiction tetralogy, which is still one of the greatest artistic achievements of this genre in Polish cinema. The subject of the article is the third production of Szulkin’s series – the post-apocalyptic film O-Bi, O-Ba: The End of Civilization from 1984. In the film, the director creates a suggestive vision of a world destroyed as a result of nuclear conflict, in which the original functions of literature and the written word are forgotten. The author article analyzes the way in which forsaken literary artifacts are used in the post-literary reality of the film. An important element of his considerations is also the post-apocalyptic reception of the biblical text, on whose elements the mythology of the film’s world is based.

Rojek Patrycja, Konkretyzacja estetyczna w Zwierzętach nocy (2016) Toma Forda [Aesthetic Concretization in Tom Ford’s Nocturnal Animals (2016)]. „Przestrzenie Teorii” 32. Poznań 2019, Adam Mickiewicz University Press, pp. 401–416. ISSN 1644-6763. DOI 10.14746/pt.2019.32.22.
The subject of Austin Wright’s novel Tony and Susan (published in 1993) is the reader’s experience. The peculiar relationship that forms between the main female character - a reader of literary fiction – and the novel itself as well as its author, inspired in 2016 Tom Ford to capture the specifics of the same relationships using the language of moving images. This article presents the effects of studying the complex system of communication situations occurring in the novel and its film adaptation: each of them contains an additional story around which further author-reader relationships are formed. The analysis shows that a significant part of the film’s plot is not a direct insight into the novel, but its concretization projected by a female protagonist. Tom Ford’s film is therefore considered in relation to Roman Ingarden’s theory on aesthetic concretization.
