Abstract
The synthesis of 2- and 6-(2-benzofuryl)azulenes was accomplished by the Sonogashira-Hagihara coupling reaction of the corresponding haloazulenes with 2-ethynylphenol. 1-(2-Benzofuryl)azulenes were prepared by the decarboxylation of the corresponding 3-methoxycarbonyl derivatives with 100% H3PO4, of which the synthesis has been reported by us, recently. The photophysical properties of the (2-benzofuryl)azulenes were investigated by UV/Vis and fluorescence spectroscopies that revealed their pronounced halochromic behavior and luminescent characteristics under the light-irradiation in acidic media. The electrochemical properties of (2-benzofuryl)azulenes were also evaluated by voltammetry experiments and spectroelectrochemistry measurements.

Published: December 2020

Background:Patients with HIV are susceptable to developing HIV-associated neurocognitive disorder (HAND). However, few studies have explored the prevalence of neurocognitive impairment and its associated factors among patients with HIV in Indonesia.Aims:This study aimed to explore the prevalence of neurocognitive impairment in patients with HIV in Indonesia.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted among patients with HIV in West Java, Indonesia. Patients were eligible for study participation if they were HIV-positive and were aged over 20 years. The International HIV Dementia Scale (IHDS) was used to measure probable HIV–related dementia. Descriptive categorisations and statistics, using mean scores, standard deviation (SD) calculations or frequency rates, were applied to participant characteristics and major variables.Findings:There were a total 150 participants in this study. The mean age was 38.09 years (SD=3.99); 74% were male; 80.7% were high school graduates. The mean of CD4 counts was 493.3 (SD=139.8), and all participants had been living with HIV for more than 9 years (SD=3.84). The mean of total scores using the IHDS was 10.2 (SD=1.58), and 49.30% of patients with HIV were reported to have cognitive impairment. There was an increased prevalence of cognitive impairment among males with a higher BMI and higher systolic blood pressureConclusions:Nearly half of patients with HIV in Indonesia are at high risk of cognitive impairment, as measured by IHSD. Health professionals caring for patients with HIV may consider routine neurocognitive impairment screenings during clinical visits to address this risk.

Published: December 2020

Background:This review investigated the role of neurovascular clinical nurse specialists in telephone clinics following subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) and arteriovenous malformations (AVM).Aims:To review telephone clinic letters to assess frequency of support provided.Methods:Clinic letters for all neurovascular clinical nurse specialist telephone clinics from July 2016–June 2018 were reviewed using a locally developed standardised template.Findings:Some 133 telephone clinic letters were included. The most common theme was clinical advice for SAH complications: fatigue (n=63) and headache (n=60). Psychological support was the second most common theme: emotional issues (n=41) and short–term memory concerns (n=41). Information was most frequently provided on lifestyle (n=61).Conclusions:The role of the neurovascular clinical nurse specialist following SAH and AVM involves clinical advice on complications. Psychological support after SAH and AVM is required for almost two–thirds of patients, which is significantly higher than previous studies. While a single site audit, this study indicates the important role in supporting psychological care that clinical nurse specialists have in a neurovascular service.

Published: December 2020

OBJECTIVES:
The paucity of symptoms and the difficulties in wearing personal protective equipment make children a potential source of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection for health care workers (HCWs). Previous experience in pediatric settings reported high rate of intrahospital SARS-CoV-2 transmission in HCWs caring for children. We aimed at investigating the rate and determinants of SARS-CoV-2 infection among HCWs working in a regional reference center in the Southern Italy.

METHODS:
A prospective observational study was conducted to monitor the occurrence of SARS-CoV-2 infections among HCWs and investigate the relation between the infection rate and hours of exposure or number and characteristics of procedures, including nasopharyngeal swab, high-flow oxygen delivery, suctioning of airway secretions, sputum induction, and nebulizer administration.

RESULTS:
After 5 months of monitoring, 425.6 hours of SARS-CoV-2 exposure (18.5 hours per person), and 920 hospital procedures, no case of nosocomial transmission was reported among the 23 HCWs enrolled in the study.

CONCLUSIONS:
The application of stringent preventive measures, also outside the area dedicated to patients’ care, can effectively control infection spreading also in pediatric settings.

Authors: Akduman G. , Omurtag Korkmaz I. 
Published: December 2020

Background: Herbal teas are produced and sold in packaged or unpackaged forms all over the world. The aim of this study was microbial evaluation of Turkish herbal teas before and after infusion in boiled water.
Methods: A total of 20 packaged and unpackaged samples of Turkish herbal teas, including chamomile, salvia, green, mix, apple, mate, ginger, linden, fennel, and senna tea were collected. All of the samples were analyzed before and after infusion in hot water (~100 °C). Microbiological analyses were performed with tenfold serial dilution for yeast-mold, Salmonella, and Cronobacter sakazakii after enrichment by using the spread-on-plate method on selective agar. Data were statistically analyzed by using Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2013 Excel software.
Results: Three out of the 20 tea samples (15%) were contaminated with C. sakazakii. None of the samples were contaminated with Salmonella spp. No significant difference was found in occurrence of C. sakazakii before and after infusion of the samples (p>0.05). Mold and yeast contamination were found in 12 out of 20 teas samples (60%). No statistical significance (p>0.05) was found between the mold-yeast contents of the unpackaged and packaged herbal teas. After infusion, neither mold nor yeast was observed in any of the samples.
Conclusion: All of the herbal teas in this research were found to be within the microbiological limits for consumption according to Turkish Food Codex. However, the microbiological results highlighted the need for quality control of senna tea during production to eliminate the risk of C. sakazakii contamination.
Tout pour le peuple, rien par le peuple: una crítica al populismo de Chantal Mouffe
Authors: Chaguaceda Noriega Armando 
Published: December 2020

La obra teórico-política de Chantal Mouffe puede ser leída a partir de dos registros. Por un lado, es atendible su propuesta de una democracia agonista, capaz de sacudir las osificaciones y letargos que aquejan a nuestras repúblicas liberales de masas, mediante un adecuado procesamiento del conflicto y una ampliación del pluralismo que expandan la agencia ciudadana allende los formatos tradicionales. Por el otro, el sesgo ideológico, la incapacidad para dar cuenta del pluralismo constitutivo de la sociedad contemporánea y el divorcio con la evidencia histórica del populismo realmente existente siembran dudas sobre el populismo de izquierda mouffeano como vehículo de la soberanía popular y alternativa de democratización radical. En esta última dirección, el presente texto dará cuenta de las contradicciones entre los presupuestos del enfoque populista mouffeano y la deriva autocrática venezolana. Apostando a la construcción colectiva de una democratización ampliada, posliberal y no populista, para los retos del presente.
Rasgos de identidad. Tres perspectivas epistemológicas de la contabilidad social y ambiental
Authors: Sarmiento Héctor José 
Published: December 2020

Este trabajo busca rasgos de identidad epistémica, y explora la existencia de una comunidad científica en el campo de la contabilidad social y ambiental. Para ello, conecta elementos epistemológicos, como la clasificación habermasiana de las ciencias, con los enfoques de investigación de la teoría crítica a partir del análisis de una selección de textos paradigmáticos de dicho campo de conocimiento. Se hace un análisis de contenido documental guiado por 3 categorías y 48 subcategorías de análisis de texto, que permiten vincular algunos textos/autores con una perspectiva epistemológica/metodológica. Este ejercicio logra agrupar los textos en torno a algunos rasgos epistemológicos, pero la ubicación de los autores no es factible de manera categórica por razones que se explicitan. Se reconocen algunas limitaciones metodológicas en torno al alcance y la validación que abren algunas líneas de trabajo hacia el futuro.
