Maintaining Numerical Positivity in Strong Magnetized Astrophysical Shocks
Authors: Toh Y. H. , Wise John H. 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
Riemann solvers play a vital role in fluid dynamics simulations. Extreme cases, however, can generate artificially negative pressures and magnetic monopoles, destabilizing the solver. Here we couple the numerical scheme of Waagan that maintains positivity with the constrained transport method to solve the magnetohydrodynamics equations. This extends the applicability of the Waagan scheme to a wider range of problems, especially with large density and pressure gradients that occur widely in astrophysical problems.

Abstract
Objective: Aims of this study was to investigate the relationship of 3 common polymorphisms in the HFE gene (C282Y, H63D and S65C) with high body iron status in a population of Pakistani patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and to explore if there is any novel mutation in HFE gene in a sample of Pakistani subjects with type 2 DM.
Methods: In a case-control design, 200 healthy controls and 200 consecutive adult subjects with type 2 DM (both gender; age range of 30-70 years) were enrolled with informed consent. Their serum samples were analyzed for body iron status (ratio of concentration of soluble transferrin receptor to ferritin concentration). DNA from blood was screened for HFE gene polymorphisms via polymerase chain reaction, followed by restriction fragment length polymorphism or via Sanger sequencing to identify any novel mutation(s) in HFE gene.
Results: We found that there was lack of any association between HFE polymorphism and body iron status in Pakistani subjects with type 2 DM and healthy controls. H63D was the most common polymorphism found in this population. Single base substitution of G nucleotide instead of C at the codon position 187 in the HFE gene exon 2 was discovered in one subject with DM. There was also a lack of association between D allele (variant allele of H63D) and type 2 DM. A significant relationship was found between CG genotype and abnormal albuminuria in subjects with type 2 DM (p = 0.036). Continuous...
Music Related Sensibilities in Trauma Treatment: An interview with Janina Fisher
Authors: Rossetti Andrew , Fisher Janina , Pranjic Marija 
Published: November 2020

Janina Fisher PhD has collaborated with many of the pillars in the field of trauma theory and treatment – including Judith Herman, Bessel van der Kolk, and Pat Ogden – and she is a pioneering force and innovator in her own right. A prominent clinician and consultant, Dr. Fisher is a licensed clinical psychologist and instructor at the Trauma Center, an outpatient clinic and research center founded by Bessel van der Kolk. The opportunity to interview Dr. Fisher stemmed from her participation in the conference Trauma Theory & Treatment: Somatosensorial Implications of Resilience, hosted by the Louis Armstrong Center for Music & Medicine at Mount Sinai Beth Israel Medical Center in New York City. The conference lectures included mental healthcare professionals ranging from a broad spectrum of disciplines, with a strong showing of music therapists with specialties in trauma treatment with diverse populations. As conference co-chair I took the opportunity to interview Dr. Fisher, who graciously agreed to sit down with me and answer some questions. As a music psychotherapist whose work centers on pre-emptive strategies in fragile hospital populations such as newly diagnosed cancer patients receiving radiation therapy, her in-depth and thoughtful responses to my probing questions offered unique insight. At various junctures, I provide some commentary to contextualize some of the salient themes. Her comments expand upon the growth and ‘interdisciplinarization’ of the evolving field of trauma. We are indeed fortunate to have her share her knowledge and expertise on its inner workings and perspectives within these pages. The following is a candid exchange in which Dr. Fisher provides insight not only on her ideas on the neurobiological nature of trauma, but also how musical concepts, and her own musical training in her youth informs her clinical approach in working with victims of emotional trauma. I am grateful to Marija Pranjic for transcribing the interview. Keywords: Trauma, PTSD, Music Therapy, Dissociation, Safety
Clinical music study quality assessment scale (Musiquas) 1st edition
Authors: Jaschke Artur , Eggermont Laura HP , Uhlig Sylka , Scherder Erik 
Published: November 2020

Publications in scientific journals have extensively used assessment scales to address methodological quality. So far there is no scale which assesses the quality of studies in the vast amount of music related sciences.The clinical music study quality assessment scale (Musiquas) addresses this issue providing a 10-point rating scale. Studies are assessed on four general categories: Selection, Control criteria, Exposure and Outcome.Musiquas is based on the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) for assessing the quality of studies in meta-analyses and attuned by the authors to fit the demand of quality assessment in the wide array of clinical music studies.A three round Delphi procedure as well as open online commentaries contributed to the creation of the assessment scale presented here.Conclusively, this scale will contribute to higher quality methodologies in systematic reviews and meta analyses in music sciences and intervention research.
Effects of Synchronous and Asynchronous Music on Heart rate and Perceived Exertion during Aerobic Exercise: Pilot study
Authors: Chaisurin Pongsakorn , Klapajone Jakkrit , Yaicharoen Pongson 
Published: November 2020

Objectives: Our objective was to investigate physiological effects of three types of sounds (synchronous, non-synchronous and white noise) on heart rate, rating of perceived exertion (RPE) and satisfactory level during aerobic exercise.Study design: Pilot cross-over study, single-blindSetting: SuanDok fitness center, Faculty of Medicine, Chiang Mai University.Subjects: Fifteen healthy individuals, aged 18-40 years (mean ± SD = 30.2 ± 4.0) with no prior history of pain, musculoskeletal disorders, cardiopulmonary diseases, neurological diseases and hearing impairment.Methods: Subjects who were asked to exercise to exhaustion (with target heart rate in an aerobic zone) on elliptical machines were randomly assigned to listen to 1) a music with beats matching the exercise cadence; synchronous music or 2) a music with variable beats not matching the cadence; asynchronous music or 3) a control sound using white noise in each of 3 exercise sessions. Heart rate and Borg’s Ratings of Perceived Exertion (RPE) were measured at 10 and 20 minutes after starting the exercise. Satisfactory level was also assessed.Results: All fifteen participants with an average age of 30.2 ± 4.0 years completed the exercise protocol. The synchronous music session gave a significant reduction in heart rate at 10 and 20 minutes when compared with asynchronous and white noise sessions. There was no significant difference of heart rate between asynchronous music and white noise sessions at 10 and 20 minutes. Regarding Borg’s RPE, the synchronous session showed significantly lower RPE at 10 and 20 minutes when compared with asynchronous music and white noise sessions. There was no significant difference between RPE in asynchronous music and white noise session. Overall satisfaction using numeric rating scale of 0-10 revealed average satisfactory levels for synchronous music, asynchronous music and white noise of 8.27 ± 1.16, 5.2 ± 2.65 and 2.73 ± 1.62 respectively. Conclusion: Synchronous music had a positive impact on an exercise as it could reduce heart rate and perceived exertion during the exercise. A consistent pace could be auditorily stimulated by coupling exercise cadence on the elliptical machine to the synchronous music tempo, leading to better auditory-motor synchronization.Keywords: synchronous music, exercise, RPE, tempo, elliptical machine

THE IMPACT OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC ON THE ECONOMIC ACTIVITY OF THE REPUBLIC OF NORTHERN MACEDONIA
Authors: Mustafi Mahije , Karemani Sulbije Memeti 
Published: November 2020

COVID-19 not only endangers human health but also hits hard on the economy. Isolation and paralysis of public life hits the economies of every country. Before analyzing the links between COVID-19 and the possible economic crisis, we can say that the crises in capitalism are inherent and the virus should be seen as a spark which accelerates the turbines that shake the system.
However, while insufficient to predict the extent of the damage that COVID-19 could do to the economy, this starting point is sufficient to anticipate the chain effects. The immediate effect of all these restrictions is the decline in economic activity, which results in declining production and rising prices. We can say that there is a direct cause-and-effect correlation between the virus and the crisis.
The economy of the Republic of Northern Macedonia has been hit hard by the Covid 19. pandemic. These six months have paralyzed almost all sectors of the economy in the country. Government aid packages were more social while those for business still remain unused.
Companies in northern Macedonia have already been severely affected. The closure of many businesses is accompanied by the dismissal of many workers, which is also associated with a social crisis.Growth in the country for 2020 is projected to be between -1.4 and -3.2 percent - which provides a baseline and unfavorable scenario due to the high uncertainty brought about by the pandemic.
In Northern Macedonia, improving governance and strengthening institutions are long-term policies that can address the main causes of continued emigration, in order to maintain a skilled workforce. This can be achieved by accelerating job creation, promoting the private sector, investing in higher education and increasing opportunities for women in the economy.
The capital of the diaspora influences the maintenance of social stability and the reduction of poverty in Macedonia and in the future the state should take it more seriously the investments of the diaspora.
Weak administrative capacity can cancel the implementation of reforms as well as large critical projects implemented with state guarantees. Political instability and insufficient reform progress could reduce investor confidence.
Northern Macedonia's accession to NATO and the official invitation of the EU Council to open negotiations for EU membership should help accelerate the recovery.

Médecins Sans Frontières en Tchétchénie de 1994 à 2004
Authors: Binet Laurence 
Published: November 2020

Cet article a été rédigé à partir de l’étude Crimes de guerre et politiques de terreur en Tchétchénie 1994-2004, réalisée par Laurence Binet et publiée dans la collection « Prises de parole publiques de Médecins Sans Frontières ». Cette collection de MSF, à destination interne, est progressivement rendue publique sur le site http://www.speakingout.msf.org. Elle s’efforce de décrire les processus de prise de décision qui ont mené aux positionnements publics de MSF lors de grandes crises humanitaires, ainsi que les dilemmes et controverses qui les ont accompagnés. Les études y prennent la forme d’un récit chronologique composé d’extraits de documents propres à l’organisation (rapports de situation, de mission, échanges de courriels, comptes rendus de réunions, communiqués de presse, rapports de témoignages) et d’articles de presse. S’y ajoutent des extraits d’entretiens menés avec les protagonistes de MSF, acteurs des processus. À partir de ces sources, l’article proposé ici décrit les positionnements publics de Médecins Sans Frontières, lors de la première (1994-1996) puis de la seconde guerre de Tchétchénie (après 1999) et rappelle le contexte opérationnel dans lequel ils s’inscrivaient. L’article se propose ensuite d’examiner les principaux questionnements et dilemmes que ces prises de paroles publiques ont posés à l’organisation aussi bien au moment où il fallait décider d’un positionnement public qu’a posteriori.

Abstract. Iceland is a highly active source of natural dust.
Icelandic dust has the potential to directly affect the climate via
dust–radiation interaction and indirectly via dust–cloud interaction,
the snow/ice albedo effect and impacts on biogeochemical cycles. The impacts of
Icelandic dust depend on its mineralogical and chemical composition.
However, a lack of data has prevented an accurate assessment of the role of
Icelandic dust in the Earth system. Here, we collected surface sediment
samples from five major Icelandic dust hotspots. Dust aerosols were
generated and suspended in atmospheric chambers, and PM10 and PM20
fractions were collected for further analysis. We found that the dust
samples primarily consist of amorphous basaltic materials ranging from 8 wt %
(from the Hagavatn hotspot) to 60 wt %–90 wt % (other hotspots). Samples
had relatively high total Fe content (10 wt %–13 wt %). Sequential extraction
of Fe to determine its chemical form shows that dithionite Fe (Fe oxides
such as hematite and goethite) and ascorbate Fe (amorphous Fe) contribute
respectively 1 %–6 % and 0.3 %–1.4 % to the total Fe in Icelandic dust. The
magnetite fraction is 7 %–15 % of total Fe and 1 %–2 wt % of PM10,
which is orders of magnitude higher than in mineral dust from northern Africa.
Nevertheless, about 80 %–90% of the Fe is contained in pyroxene and
amorphous glass. The initial Fe solubility (ammonium acetate extraction at
pH 4.7) is from 0.08 % to 0.6 %, which is comparable to low-latitude dust such
as that from northern Africa. The Fe solubility at low pH (i.e. pH 2) is
significantly higher than typical low-latitude dust (up to 30 % at pH 2
after 72 h). Our results revealed the fundamental differences in
composition and mineralogy of Icelandic dust from low-latitude dust. We
attribute these differences to the low degree of chemical weathering, the
basaltic composition of the parent sediments and glacial processes.
Icelandic dust contributes to the atmospheric deposition of soluble Fe and
can impact primary productivity in the North Atlantic Ocean. The distinct
chemical and mineralogical composition, particularly the high magnetite
content (1 wt %–2 wt %), indicates a potentially significant impact of
Icelandic dust on the radiation balance in the subpolar and polar regions.
Did Ancients Know the Testaments Were Pseudepigraphic? Implications for 2 Peter
Authors: Richards E. Randolph , Boyle Kevin J. 
Published: November 2020

Abstract
Richard Bauckham argues for the pseudonymity of 2 Peter on the basis of its genre. He argues that 2 Peter was written as a “testament” of Peter, and since other ancient Jewish testaments are clearly pseudonymous, 2 Peter’s testamental genre indicates its pseudonymity. Moreover, since it was well known in antiquity that the testaments were pseudonymous, those who wrote them did not intend to deceive. Petrine authorship of 2 Peter is thus, in Bauckham’s words, a “transparent fiction.” But did ancients know the testaments were pseudepigraphic? Bauckham provides no evidence. He only suggests that the pseudonymity of the testaments is so obvious that it was “self-evident.” The authors of this paper examined ancient authors who cited material from the testaments or testamental-type material. They found no evidence the authors or their audiences knew the testaments were pseudepigraphic. Rather, they appear to cite the testamentary material as authentic, reliable, even authoritative material.
Gabapentin-induced myositis in a patient with spinal cord injury – a case report
Authors: Ghosh Sabyasachi , Villan Sarafdheen , Al Yazeedi Wafa 
Published: November 2020

Myositis and rhabdomyolysis are the same forms of myopathy, with rhabdomyolysis being a more severe form of myopathy. Gabapentin is frequently used in patients with spinal cord injury for neuropathic pain. We report a case of probable gabapentin-induced myositis in a patient with spinal cord injury who was on an increasing dose of gabapentin.
This paraplegic patient was receiving an increasing dose of gabapentin for neuropathic pain in the lower limbs. Gabapentin-induced myositis was diagnosed by a combination of new-onset generalized body pain with tenderness, an increase in creatine kinase, elevated myoglobin levels, and a score of 6 on the Naranjo adverse drug reaction probability scale. Withdrawal of the gabapentin resolved the symptoms completely. Blood parameters became normal within two weeks.
We suggest that myopathy, in the form of myositis, should be recognized as a potential side effect of gabapentin in the literature.
