Published: April 2020

Zusammenfassung
Einleitung Körperliche Aktivität gilt als wichtiger,
modifizierbarer Risikofaktor der Koronaren Herzkrankheit. In Ergänzung
zum aeroben Ausdauertraining wird moderates Krafttraining bei Patienten mit
Koronarer Herzkrankheit empfohlen. Unklar ist jedoch, ob und wann mit einem
Kraftausdauertraining nach aortokoronarer Bypassoperation begonnen werden kann,
um postoperativen Kraftdefiziten entgegenzuwirken.
Methodik Der Einschluss der aortokoronar bypassoperierten Patienten in
die prospektive Beobachtungsstudie zum Kraftausdauertraining erfolgte von Mai
2017 bis November 2018 in der Paracelsus-Harz-Klinik Bad Suderode.
Während der Anschlussheilbehandlung absolvierten die Patienten 3-mal pro
Woche eine Bewegungstherapie mit Kraftübungen, welche Dehn- und
Scherbewegungen am Sternum sowie eine Thoraxkompression vermieden. Drei Monate
nach dem Aufenthalt wurden die Patienten zu Wundheilungsstörungen,
anderen Komplikationen und erneuten Klinikaufenthalten befragt.
Ergebnisse 92% der Patienten waren männlich, das
Durchschnittsalter lag bei 61,7±12,3 Jahren und der mittlere BMI betrug
27,5±3,8 kg/m2. Die Patienten erreichten nach einem
Median von 16 (13/19) Tagen postoperativ die Anschlussheilbehandlung.
Während der stationären Rehabilitation traten bei 1,5%
der Patienten Wundheilungsstörungen auf, die konservativ behandelt
wurden. Im Follow-up gaben 8% Wundheilungsstörungen an, darunter
5 Patienten mit Narbeninfektionen und 3 weitere Patienten mit
verzögerten Heilprozessen. In 2 Fällen war das Sternum
betroffen. Weitere 8% gaben Schmerzen im Operationsgebiet an. Weiterhin
waren bei 7,8% der Patienten ein erneuter stationärer Aufenthalt
in einer Akutklinik nötig, bei einem Patienten im Rahmen einer
Wundheilungsstörung (Erysipel im Bereich der Saphenektomie-Narbe).
Schlussfolgerung Diese Beobachtungsstudie zeigt die kurz- und
mittelfristige Sicherheit eines selektiven Kraftausdauertrainings in der
stationären Rehabilitation, welches früh nach ACB-Operation
durchgeführt wird.

Abstract:Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) is the leading cause of death in the world. While it is well established as the foremost contributor to mortality in most developed countries, it is also a major and rapidly rising cause of death in many developing countries. To assess the existing knowledge of people regarding cardiovascular risk factors. This community based descriptive study was conducted to assess the knowledge regarding cardiovascular risk factors among community people. They were selected through Non probability convenient sampling and pre-validated semi-structured questionnaire related to various aspects of cardiovascular risk factors used. The data was analyzed using SPSS version 16 and the results expressed as proportion. A total of 100 community people surveyed, majority of the participants (98%) had average level of knowledge regarding cardiovascular risk factors. There was a significant association between knowledge and age (x2 =5.09, p<0.05). There was a significant association between knowledge and education (X2 =4.38, p<0.05). Majority of the participants (76%) did not have family history of heart diseases. The study reflects that majority of the participants (98%) had average level of knowledge regarding cardiovascular risk factors. Hence it is necessary to educate the people in community regarding cardio vascular risk factors.
PROCALCITONIN FOR IMPROVED ASSESSMENT AND AN ANSWER TO SEPSIS DILEMMA IN CRITICALLY ILL - A MYTH, A HYPE, OR A REALITY ?
Authors: Sharma Raghava , Vijayakumar Maniyar 
Published: April 2020

Abstract:
Background and objectives: “Sepsis is a major cause for mortality in critically ill patients all over the world. The number of patients presenting with sepsis, septic shock is gradually increasing in daily clinical practice. Mortality in sepsis is mainly due to a delay in diagnosis and initiation of specific therapy(antibiotics).This is in turn mainly attributed to the difficulty in differentiating infectious trigger(sepsis) from non infectious triggers as both present with similar clinical features. Lack of specific marker adds to this dilemma of differentiating infectious and non infectious factors in critically ill patients.Recently there are some reports from European countries on role of Procalcitonin (PCT) in critically ill patients. Draw backs of these studies are galore mainly due to the difficulties in interpretation of results, as varying definitions for sepsis are used. But also there is paucity of data on Procalcitonin from Indian sub continent. Hence in the present single centre prospective observational study conducted at tertiary care medical college hospital , A total of 50 adult patients with sepsis fulfilling ACCP/SCCM guidelines were included, out of which 23 were in SIRS/Sepsis, 14 in severe sepsis and 13 in septic shock. Procalcitonin was evaluated in the first 24 hours after admission and before initiation of any antibiotic therapy. The role of procalcitonin was analyzed in relation to confirming sepsis, assessing the severity of sepsis and assessing the prognosis(possible out come) of sepsis. Combined role of procalcitonin with other indicators especially ESR, SOFA Score, Blood/relevant material culture was explored.
Results: Our study confirmed the importance of procalcitonin in critically ill patients particularly in improving the predictive power while solving the sepsis dilemma.
Conclusions: From our study, we conclude that Procalcitonin is not a myth nor a hype but it is a hard reality and is an answer to sepsis dilemma. It is therefore preferable to add Procalcitonin into the standard workup of critically ill patients with suspected sepsis in every day clinical practice.

Authors: Mishra Snigdha , B. Satheesha Nayak , George Bincy M. 
Published: April 2020

Abstract:It is indeed a challenge to teach the cadaveric anatomy of the perineum to the undergraduate medical students. The anatomy teacher often fails to make the student understand the exact arrangement and attachments of the fasciae in the perineum in spite of his/her best attempts in the dissection hall and lecture classes. We prepared a video to demonstrate the arrangements of fasciae in the male perineum. The video had a combination of clips of cadaveric dissection, diagrams drawn on a blackboard and the demonstration of the arrangement of fasciae using a simple cloth model. The video was shown to students after they had the routine dissection and lecture classes about the perineum. There was a significant difference between the pre and post test scores. The opinion survey also indicated that the video was very effective.

Abstract:
Background and objectives: The relationship between airway patency and craniofacial development is highly debated and controversial subject. Hence this was conducted with the aims and objectives of comparing and correlating the upper & lower Oropharyngeal widths in individuals with horizontal growth pattern with that of individuals having vertical growth pattern.
Methodology: 60 subjects (30 males & 30 females) in the age group of 16 to 20 years were selected as per inclusion criteria. They were divided into two groups (Group I and Group II) according to their skeletal pattern in vertical plane based on Jarabak' sratio and Y axis. . Pharyngeal width measurement was done based on McNamara analysis The data obtained was statistically evaluated using Mann-Whitney U test (Z test).
Results: Significant correlation was found between facial skeletal patterns and upper and lower Oropharyngeal widths. The subjects with vertical skeletal pattern were found to have significantly narrower upper airways and broader lower airways than those with horizontal skeletal pattern.
Interpretation and conclusion: The study supports the existence of a relationship between facial skeletal patterns and upper and lower oropharyngeal widths.

Authors: Permi Harish S. , Rai Sandeep , Shetty Padma , Y. Sunil Kumar , S. Kiran H. ,   Raghushankar
Published: April 2020

Abstract:Ganglioneuroma is a benign tumor that originates from primordial neural crest cells which migrate from the mantle layer of the developing spinal cord to the sympathetic ganglia, adrenal medulla, and other sites. The most affected anatomical sites are the posterior mediastinum, retroperitoneum, adrenal gland, head and neck. It occurs most commonly in children over 10 years of age and consists of ganglion and Schwann cells. We report a case of 9 – year- old male child who presented with mass per abdomen in the right hypochondrium. Fine needle aspiration cytology showed mature ganglion cells and cluster of Schwann cells suggestive of Ganglioneuroma. Cytology diagnosis was confirmed by histopathological examination of tru-cut biopsy and subsequently excised specimen. On regular follow he is doing fine without any symptoms.
A RARE CAUSE OF URETHRAL OBSTRUCTION IN AN INFANT - CONGENITAL POSTERIOR URETHRAL POLYP
Authors: Rai Sandeep B. , Shankar Raghu 
Published: April 2020

Abstract:Urethral polyp is a rare finding in young children. These are congenital fibroepithelial benign polyp in the prostatic urethra. They present with acute or intermittent urinary obstruction, hematuria or voiding dysfunction. Their diagnosis requires a high index of suspicion because of variability in presentation. Diagnosis can be made by ultrasonography or micturating cystourethrogram, however cystourethroscopy is confirmatory. Transurethral resection is possible in almost all the cases and recurrence is almost unknown. We report a case of this rare lesion in a male infant with a severe phimosis.
Relevance of the Entropy Factor in Stereoselectivity Control of Asymmetric Photoreactions
Authors: Mori Tadashi 
Published: April 2020

Entropy as well as enthalpy factors play substantial roles in various chemical phenomena such as equilibrium and reactions. However, the entropy factors are frequently underestimated in most instances, particularly in synthetic chemistry. In reality, the entropy factor can be in competition with the enthalpy factor or can even be decisive in determining the overall free or activation energy change upon molecular interaction and chemical transformation, particularly where weak interactions in ground and/or excited states are significant. In this account, we overview the importance of the entropy factor in various chemical phenomena in both thermodynamics and kinetics and in the ground and excited states. It is immediately apparent that many diastereo- and enantioselective photoreactions are entropy-controlled. Recent advances on the entropy-control concept in asymmetric photoreactions are further discussed. Understanding the entropy-control concept will pave the way to improve, fine-tune, and even invert the chemo- and stereoselectivity of relevant chemical phenomena.1	Introduction2	Role of Entropy in Supramolecular Interactions3	Selected Examples of Entropy-Driven Thermal Reactions4	Classical Examples of Entropy Control in Photoreactions5	Entropy-Driven Asymmetric Photoreactions6	Advances in Entropy Control7	Perspective

Abstract
Objective To develop reference curves of estimated fetal weight for a local population in Curitiba, South of Brazil, and compare them with the curves established for other populations.
Methods An observational, cross-sectional, retrospective study was conducted. A reference model for estimated fetal weight was developed using a local sample of 2,211 singleton pregnancies with low risk of growth disorders and well-defined gestational age. This model was compared graphically with the Hadlock and Intergrowth 21st curves.
Results Reference curves for estimated fetal weight were developed for a local population. The coefficient of determination was R2 = 99.11%, indicating that 99.11% of the fetal weight variations were explained by the model. Compared with Hadlock curves, the 50th, 90th, and 97th percentiles in this model were lower, whereas the 10th percentile nearly overlapped, and the 3rd percentile was slightly higher in the proposed model. The percentiles were higher in the proposed model compared with the Intergrowth 21st curves, particularly for the 3rd, 10th, and 50th percentiles.
Conclusion We provide a local reference curve for estimated fetal weight. The proposed model was different from other models, and these differences might be due to the use of different populations for model construction.
Linguistic description and language philosophy in Wilhelm von
Humboldt’s North American grammars
Authors: Verlato Micaela 
Published: April 2020

Abstract
The focus of this paper is on three grammars of native
North American languages (Massachusett, Mahican, Onondaga) that
Wilhelm von Humboldt wrote in 1822–1823. The first part of the paper
describes these grammars and situates them in the context of early
comparative Americanist linguistics that was emerging in Germany and
North America. The second part presents an example of Humboldt’s
descriptive work drawn from his analysis of the Massachusett verb
and shows how his attempt at understanding the Algonquian system of
expressing grammatical relations is linked to the evolution of his
language philosophy.

After a brief overview of the heuristic and methodological state of
the art, we offer a content-based typology of the grammatical
papyri, as forming part of the ancient schooling system.
Subsequently we discuss the function and the general characteristics
of the various text types, before dealing in greater detail with the

Intercultural interaction management
Authors: Aikawa Hiroko 
Published: April 2020

Abstract
Recent Japanese government policy and public rhetoric focus on fostering global human resources with strong English skills and a global mindset to succeed in the globalized economy. This study investigates how Japanese and non-Japanese professionals try to deal with linguistic and non-linguistic problems when they interact with their business partners and colleagues in English. The study shows how the identification of the source of these problems can affect adjustment design. The findings reveal that although various deviations were noted, the participants were rarely able to identify the source of the problems. This inadequate identification of the source of the problem at the interactional level was seen to lead to ineffective adjustment design and implementation, including at the institutional level.

Published: April 2020

Abstract
Transmembrane 2 (TMEM2) gene inhibits chronic hepatitis-B virus (HBV) infection, while the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unknown. Transcriptome alterations in HepG2 cells following TMEM2 overexpression or silencing by shRNA were analyzed by next-generation sequencing. Both overexpression and knockdown of the TMEM2 gene caused wide-spread changes in gene expression in HepG2 cells. Differentially expressed genes caused by altered TMEM2 gene expression were associated with multiple biological processes linked with viral infection and various signaling pathways. KEGG analysis revealed that many of the differentially expressed genes were enriched in the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. Moreover, we show that genes related to the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, such as SYK, FLT4, AKT3, FLT1, and IL6, are biological targets regulated by TMEM2 in HepG2 cells. This is the first transcriptome-wide study in which TMEM2-regulated genes in HepG2 cells have been screened. Our findings elucidate the molecular events associated with TMEM2-mediated hepatocyte pathogenesis in chronic HBV infection.
Polarization selective metasurface formed by interference laser writing
Authors: Andreeva Ya M , Koval V V , Sergeev M M , Itina T 
Published: April 2020

Abstract
Polarization dependent optical response of the periodically nanostructured SiO2-Ag nanocomposite material is investigated. As a result of the laser-based surface structuring, the reflection is found to be particularly enhanced and blueshifted for parallel polarisation. This result is attributed to the interaction between photonic and plasmonc resonances, namely to the coupling of the grating caused Rayleigh-Wood anomaly mode (described by using grating theory) with localized surface plasmon modes of the embedded Ag nanoparticles (described by using effective medium approach). The laser-induced formation of such metasurface allows precise control of the effect that is essential for practical application in photonics devices and optical filters.

Published: April 2020

Abstract
We present some of the anomalous transport features that have recently been observed in boron doped diamond, these include the re-entrant Bosonic Insulating peak, Zero Bias Conductance anomaly and non-linear magnetoresistance. The features, related to confined condensate phase and bound states, are expected to interesting for novel device functionality particularly in low dimensional device elements such as superconducting resonators and phase slip qubits. The fabrication techniques required to produce such device elements are also discussed, including our preferred method of He ion source focused Ion beam (FIB) patterning.
Modal analysis of anapoles

Published: April 2020

Abstract
The resonant interaction between light dielectric scatterers can yield to a resonant light scattering process and to a strong enhancement of the near field intensities at a deep sub-wavelength scale. While Fano resonances can be observed in the scattering spectrum of Mie scatterers, the spectrum of the internal field enhancement is composed of a set of peaks that feature Lorentzian shapes. The question is to know how to optimize the internal field enhancement and how to predict the maximum of the internal field enhancement with respect to the far field response. Here, we derive a pole expansion of the scattering operator to perform a modal analysis of the external and internal field spectra. This pole expansion provides a suitable mathematical description of the Fano resonances observed in the scattering spectrum and of the Lorentzian peaks observed in the internal field spectrum. This modal analysis is also used to predict the maxima of the internal field, i.e. the frequency that yields the strongest field intensity inside the dielectric scatterer.
