Published: April 2020

Dalak infarktı özellikli bulguları olmayan, klinik şüphe olmadığı sürece tanısı çok zor konulan ve nadir görülen sessiz bir klinik durumdur. Çoğunlukla sebebi tromboemboli veya hematolojik bir hastalıktır. Genelde cerrahi müdahale gerektirmeden medikal tedavi ile tablo geriler. Literatürde sayılı olgu bildirimleri mevcuttur ve tanı özellikle acil serviste nadiren akla gelip konulabilir. Biz acil servise karın ağrısı şikayeti ile başvuran, atriyal fibrilasyonu olan ve dalak infarktı saptanan olgumuzu literatür taraması eşliğinde tartışmak istedik.

Abstract: Worship and service are things that are very well known to Christians. In conducting worship and service there are several things that should be used as a basis for guidance. In Psalm 2: 11-12, written instructions for Christians in worship. This article examines the meaning of the sentence in Psalm 2: 11-12, which is, "Serve the Lord with fear, and rejoice with trembling. Kiss the Son, lest he be angry. And ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him. " This study is a qualitative study using descriptive methods of literature and text analysis. The study results obtained are: First, worship must be performed with an attitude of fear and respect for the holiness and glory of God. Worship must also be performed with joy, but the attitude of that joy must also be done with fear and respect for the holiness and glory of God. Second, happiness will be found for every Christian who takes refuge in God. Christians take refuge in God as proof that they believe and surrender completely to God.Abstrak: Ibadah dan melayani adalah hal yang sangat dikenal oleh orang Kristen.

A Transdisciplinary Conceptual Framework for the Early Identification of Risks for Communication Disorders in Young Children
Authors: Kritzinger Alta , Louw Brenda , Rossettil Louis M. 
Published: April 2020

The early identification of infants with communication disorders or at risk for communication delays is still one of the biggest challenges of early communication intervention (ECI) and threatens to compromise its efficacy. Current approaches to the early identification of young children at risk for communication disorders involve strategies aimed at the identification of general developmental delays and may not be sufficiently sensitive and specific enough to detect the early stages of communication disorders. The risks for mortality and health are often identified early in life, but the concomitant risks for communication disorders in the same young children are frequently not identified at that opportune time. The current study involved a descriptive survey, describing the identification of communication disorders in 153 subjects, whose data was stored in and retrieved from a customized ECI database system. The findings revealed that the subjects were assessed at the average age of 18 months, but that identifications of risk conditions occurred prenatally, at birth, after the perinatal period and later in life. The time of identification related to the different communication disorders identified in the subjects and caregivers played a major role in detecting the first signs of communication disorders in their children. In order to provide a guideline for clinical practice, a transdisciplinary conceptual framework towards a coordinated effort for the early identification of risks for communication disorders in young children is proposed.
Psychometric evaluation of the Polish version of the Support in Intimate Relationships Rating Scale – Revised (SIRRS-R)
Authors: Ilska Michalina , Przybyła-Basista Hanna 
Published: April 2020

BackgroundResearchers are interested in studies on the importance of partner support for both the well-being of the individual in various life contexts and the marital satisfaction. The current study examined the psychometric properties of the Support in Intimate Rela-tionships Rating Scale – Revised (SIRRS-R) developed by Barry, Bunde, Brock, and Lawrence with a Polish sample.Participants and procedureThe sample consisted of a total of 574 people in close heterosexual relationships, diverse in terms of age, sex, and education. Half of the participants were married and the other half in informal relationships, cohabiting with their partners. The duration of the relationship varied, with the average of 7 years.ResultsThe results of the present research indicate satisfactory psychometric properties of the Polish version of the SIRRS-R. Our find-ings confirm the four-factor structure of support received from the partner proposed in the original version of the SIRRS-R. The questionnaire consists of four subscales: emotional and esteem support, informational support, physical comfort, and instrumen-tal or tangible support. The Cronbach’s α reliability for the whole scale is .94 (for the subscales it ranged from .85 to .92).ConclusionsThe Polish version of the SIRRS-R is a valid and reliable questionnaire suitable for use in research on the importance of partner support for physical and mental health of individuals in many contexts of life associated with stress, and for identifying factors contributing to marital satisfaction.
Autistic traits, adolescence, and anti-social peer pressure
Authors: Verrier Diarmuid , Halton Sabrina , Robinson Matthew 
Published: April 2020

BackgroundThe potential role of autism as a moderator of conformity has recently been investigated by a small number of studies. However, as yet, no consensus has emerged as to whether autism or autistic traits can moderate the degree to which people attend to and are influenced by social pressure, nor whether there are specific circum-stances under which this might occur. The current study adds to this ambiguous literature by looking at whether autism and autistic traits are associated with conformity in the context of adolescent peer pressure.Participants and procedureA sample of 12-16 year old students completed questionnaire measures of peer conformity (e.g., in relation to smoking, skipping school, etc.), resistance to peer influence, and autistic traits. Approximately half had an au-tism-related diagnosis, and none had an intellectual impairment.ResultsControlling for age, gender, and academic ability, we found that degree of autistic traits was associated with reduced peer conformity, while a diagnosis of autism was not. In contrast, neither autism nor autistic traits were related to resistance to peer influence.ConclusionsThese results are contextualised in terms of past research and positioned within a broader model of individual differences and conformity in which autistic traits moderate the degree to which a person perceives peer influ-ence, while resistance to peer influence moderates the degree to which one conforms to peer influence. Possi-ble future avenues of inquiry are suggested.

BackgroundSocial support in women with breast cancer is associated with quality of life (QoL) and it appears to be vital for treating breast cancer and adaptation to disease. Social support seems to decrease quantitatively and over time while significant improvement in the patients’ long-term emotional and physical function is observed. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the differences in levels of social support and QoL in two independent groups of patients: women with breast cancer (i) during chemotherapy and (ii) two years after the chemotherapy.Participants and procedureIn this cross-sectional study 74 women with breast cancer “during chemotherapy” (n = 41) and “two years after chemotherapy” (n = 33) completed the Greek version of Multi-dimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS) and the Greek version of the Missoula-VITAS Quality of Life Index (MVQoLI-15) to measure social support and QoL respectively. All statistical analyses were performed with SPSS 25 with significance set at p < .05.ResultsThe group “two years after chemotherapy” reported better QoL than the “during chemotherapy” group. There was no difference in perceived social support between the two groups. The higher the patients’ age, the lower the QoL for the “during chemotherapy” group and the higher the social support for the “two years after chemo-therapy” group.ConclusionsQoL improves over time, emphasizing the ability of women to manage difficult situations. Social support re-mains important in both periods.
Altered intrinsic brain activity and regional cerebral blood flow in patients with chronic neck and shoulder pain
Authors: Yue Xi , Du Yong 
Published: April 2020

PurposeTo identify the changes of intrinsic brain activity and regional cerebral blood flow in patients with chronic neck and shoulder pain (CNSP) by using amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (ALFF) analysis and arterial spin labelling study.Material and methodsIn total, 28 CNSP patients and 25 age-matched and sex-matched healthy controls (HCs) partici­pated in the study. Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) and arterial spin labelling (ASL) MRI were acquired. Correlations between ALFF and cerebral blood flow (CBF) were analysed. Subsequently, the differences in ALFF and CBF were compared in the two groups. Finally, the visual analogue scale (VAS) was also assessed in the CNSP group.ResultsCompared with HCs, CNSP patients showed significantly abnormal ALFF and CBF in several brain regions, including the cerebellum posterior lobe, middle orbitofrontal gyrus, medial superior frontal gyrus, middle temporal gyrus, precuneus, cingulate gyrus, middle occipital gyrus, middle frontal gyrus, postcentral gyrus, precentral gyrus, and superior parietal gyrus. Correlation analysis showed that the ALFF value of the medial superior frontal gyrus posi­tively correlated with the VAS score. However, no correlation was found between the CBF values and the VAS score.ConclusionsThe altered ALFF and CBF values in CNSP patients were observed in different pain-related brain regions that were involved in pain modulation and perception. The combination of rs-fMRI and ASL MRI might provide complementary information for increasing our understanding of the neuropathology in CNSP.
Soil greenhouse gas emissions under different land-use types in savanna ecosystems of Kenya

Published: April 2020

Abstract. Field measurement data on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are still scarce
for many land-use types in Africa, causing a high level of uncertainty in GHG
budgets. To address this gap, we present in situ measurements of carbon dioxide
(CO2), nitrous oxide (N2O), and methane (CH4) emissions from
the lowlands of southern Kenya. We conducted eight chamber measurement
campaigns on gas exchange from four dominant land-use types (LUTs) comprising
(1) cropland, (2) bushland, (3) grazing land, and (4) conservation land
between 29 November 2017 and 3 November 2018, accounting for regional
seasonality (wet and dry seasons and transitions periods). Mean CO2
emissions for the whole observation period were the highest by a significant margin
(p value < 0.05) in the conservation land (75±6 mg CO2-C m−2 h−1) compared to the three other
sites, which ranged from 45±4 mg CO2-C m−2 h−1 (bushland) to 50±5 mg CO2-C m−2 h−1 (grazing land). Furthermore,
CO2 emissions varied between seasons, with significantly higher
emissions in the wet season than the dry season. Mean N2O emissions
were highest in cropland (2.7±0.6 µg N2O-N m−2 h−1) and lowest in bushland (1.2±0.4  µg N2O-N m−2 h−1) but did not vary with
season. In fact, N2O emissions were very low both in the wet and dry
seasons, with slightly elevated values during the early days of the wet
seasons in all LUTs. On the other hand, CH4 emissions did not show any
significant differences across LUTs and seasons. Most CH4 fluxes were
below the limit of detection (LOD, ±0.03 mg CH4-C m−2 h−1). We attributed the difference
in soil CO2 emissions between the four sites to soil C content, which
differed between the sites and was highest in the conservation land. In
addition, CO2 and N2O emissions positively correlated with soil
moisture, thus an increase in soil moisture led to an increase in emissions.
Furthermore, vegetation cover explained the seasonal variation in soil
CO2 emissions as depicted by a strong positive correlation between the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI)
and CO2 emissions, most likely because, with more green (active)
vegetation cover, higher CO2 emissions occur due to enhanced root
respiration compared to drier periods. Soil temperature did not show a clear
correlation with either CO2 or N2O emissions, which is likely due
to the low variability in soil temperature between seasons and sites. Based
on our results, soil C, active vegetation cover, and soil moisture are key
drivers of soil GHG emissions in all the tested LUTs in southern Kenya. Our
results are within the range of previous GHG flux measurements from soils
from various LUTs in other parts of Kenya and contribute to more accurate
baseline GHG emission estimates from Africa, which are key to reducing
uncertainties in global GHG budgets as well as for informing policymakers
when discussing low-emission development strategies.
Using Personas as a Tool for Teaching Civic Communication
Authors: Rank Allison D. , Mushtare Rebecca 
Published: April 2020

Abstract
Questions of how to support students in conversation across and about different perspectives regularly appear in discussions about civic engagement. Students with clear political positions and a desire to engage with political institutions, however, are themselves a rarified group on many campuses. The gulf between students who seek to engage their peers in civic action and those who see establishment politics as irrelevant, alienating, or hopeless may be more significant than any partisan divides. Thus, a liberal arts program committed to voter mobilization should help engaged, active students think carefully about the audience for their efforts and how best to communicate with those whose perspective of political participation varies significantly from their own. This article argues that personas, a tool common in design, can be incorporated into civic engagement programs to help students with a strong civic identity understand how to bridge this divide. This article discusses the importance of helping students communicate across the division of interest and apathy, the role of personas as a tool in design, and our experience using personas to help students develop and implement a nonpartisan voter mobilization drive. It closes with tips for those interested in using personas in their civic engagement projects.
The Attribution of Limited Legal Personality to Nonhuman Species
Authors: Platvoet Veerle 
Published: April 2020

Abstract
This article offers a contribution to the debate on rapid biodiversity loss. This loss is a problem for ecosystems and thus for the human race, and our legal system should be equipped to protect biodiversity. This article suggests a solution in the form of the attribution of limited legal personality to nonhuman species. The concept of legal personality has been altered many times throughout history to stay in line with prevalent ideas. By acknowledging nonhuman species as possessing limited legal personality, the concept will be altered once more to benefit both animals and ourselves. This change will have to come from bottom-up, through attribution by domestic courts. Domestic courts can be inspired by international biodiversity conventions while assessing domestic legislation. Animal welfare nongovernmental organizations are best equipped to appear as guardians of animal species, as animals are not able to defend their own rights in court. When the attribution is a general principle as recognized by civilized nations, it will become a source of international law.
Making Veterinary Ethics More Ethical
Authors: Rossi John 
Published: April 2020

Abstract
Andrew and Clair Linzey’s Animal Ethics for Veterinarians collects numerous recent articles in the Journal of Animal Ethics. It offers readers a diverse set of chapters covering key issues relating to veterinary ethics: animal agriculture, animal research, veterinary oaths, complementary and alternative medicine, animal cruelty, and more. This review article discusses the book’s themes within the larger context of veterinary medicine and veterinary ethics. Compared to existing works in veterinary ethics, the book is less focused on clinical and professional issues and more focused on the ways in which veterinary medicine intersects with fundamental topics in animal ethics. Its contributors challenge veterinarians to rethink traditional stances on the moral status of nonhuman animals and the ethical defensibility of numerous practices with which veterinarians are commonly involved. As the profession has historically been conservative on animal welfare issues, the book is a welcome addition to the literature.
