Co-Existence of TB & Leprosy in the same patient – A Case Report
Authors: Khan Md Azraf Hossain , Majumder Samir C 
Published: February 2020

Leprosy is one of the more serious health issues in a number of developing countries. Although it seldom kills, leprosy is nonetheless a deforming, disabling and stigmatizing disease.1, 2 Tuberculosis is also a major public health problem affecting nearly one third of the global population. Though leprosy and tuberculosis are common infectious disease, yet co-infection of Mycobacterium leprae and Mycobacterium tuberculosis is rare possibly due to cross-immunity. A male patient of about 70 years presented with widespread shinny hypesthetic nodular lesions symmetrically located mainly in upper extremities, trunk and a little in lower extremities about 3 years back. Slit skin smear and histopathology studies showed significant amount of bacterial load which suggested lepromatous leprosy. About after one year of starting MDT treatment, the patient developed type-2 reaction of intermittent variety. During the episodic attacks of this reaction, the patient developed pulmonary TB supported by positive smear of sputum and patchy opacities of chest x-ray about 2½ years back

Published: February 2020

Background: Nephrotic syndrome (NS) is a one of most common renal disease in children causing massive proteinuria. In patients with NS, other proteins like thyroid hormones and hormone binding protein are also lost in urine in addition to albuminuria. So, this study was done to find out the thyroid function status of nephrotic syndrome children and to compare the thyroid function of healthy control children.
Method: This cross sectional comparative study was carried out in the Department of Paediatrics, Rajshahi Medical College and Nuclear Medicine Centre, Rajshahi. Total 30 patients of both sex and age between 2-12 years diagnosed as nephrotic syndrome were included in this study and another 30 non-nephrotic syndrome apparently healthy children were taken as control. History, clinical examinations and laboratory investigations were recorded in preformed questionnaire. Thyroid function statuses also were evaluated in both patient and healthy control. After data collection, statistical analysis was done by computerized software.
Results: In this study, 63.3% (n=19) nephrotic syndrome children had secondary hypothyroidism, overt hypothyroidism was 27.3% (n=7) and subclinical hypothyroidism was 6.7 % (n=2).
Conclusion: In patients of childhood nephrotic syndrome different forms of thyroid dysfunctions are commonly associated due to loss of thyroid hormones and hormone binding’s protein.

Published: February 2020

In this study, the degree to which differences were present in the reading performance of Grade 4 Texas students as a function of their economic status (i.e., Not Poor, Moderately Poor, and Very Poor) was analyzed. Data obtained from the Texas Education Agency Public Education Information Management System for all Grade 4 students in Texas who took the State of Texas Assessment of Academic Readiness Reading exam, were analyzed for the 2012-2013, 2013-2014, and 2014-2015 school years. In all three years examined, statistically significant differences were established in not only overall reading performance, but also in all three Reading Reporting categories. A clear stair-step effect was present. The higher the degree of poverty, the lower student STAAR Reading test scores were. Finally, the higher the degree of poverty, the lower the percentages of students who met the passing standard on the STAAR Reading exam. Future research and implications for policy and practice are suggested.

Authors: ALYAMAC KULAHCİ Mihriban , BEKTAŞ Mehmet , BİLİCİ Ahmet 
Published: February 2020

This study provides the de…nition of rectifying, normal and osculating curves in 3-dimensional Sasakian space with their characterizations. Furthermore, the di¤erential equations obtained from these characterizations are solved and their figures are presented in the text. Sasakian manifolds were introduced in 1960 by the Japenese geometer Shigeo Sasaki [19]. There was not much activity in this field after the mid-1970s, until the advent of String theory. Since then Sasakian manifolds have gained importance in physics and geometry. For physicists and geometers, the study of Sasakian space has its own interest, so it has been extensively studied area of scientific researchs [1, 3, 4, 7, 9, 20]. In the 3-dimensional Sasakian space, to each regular curve γ, it is possible to associate three mutually ortogonal unit vector fields. The vectors V1, V2, V3 are called the tangent, the principal normal and the binormal vector field, respectively. The planes spanned by the vector fields, {V1, V2} , {V1, V3} and {V2, V3} are defined as the osculating plane, the rectifying plane and the normal plane, respectively. In the Euclidean space E3, the notion of rectifying curves was introduced by Chen in [10]. In addition, he showed in [11] that there exist a simple relationship between the rectifying curves and centrodes, which play some important roles in mechanics, kinematics as well as differentialgeometry.

Authors: S. Lon Yohanes 
Published: February 2020

The disposal of infants and criminal provocatus abortion committed by students have been a concern of the Manggarai community today. According to Indonesian state law and the teachings of the Church, the two acts violate the law, norms and ethics in society and religion. These actions result in eliminating lives that are believed to originate from God. This research found that they are caused by free sex behavior, lack of sexual education and lack of pro-life culture and pro-life education. Therefore, this article recommends that educational institutions and religious institutions, especially Catholic religions should be more active in promoting sexual education for adolescents, building a pro-life culture for the whole community and developing effective pastoral care. Churches and educational institutions should not only function to provide social, religious and educational sanctions, but mainly to become institutions that are present in the suffering and anxiety of young people who are entangled in problems. By doing such things, the disposal of infants and abortion cases are expected to be reduced or lost.

ROLE OF CELLS OF INNATE IMMUNITY IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF MALIGNANT TUMORS OF THE BRAIN
Authors: Lysіаniy Mykola , Belskaya Lyudmila , Gnіdkova Irina , Palamaryova Nastya 
Published: February 2020

This review presents data on changes in the activity of cells of innate and acquired immunity, namely leukocytes, neutrophils, platelets and lymphocytes in various malignant human tumors, including brain tumors. It was shown that against the background of immunosuppression of specific immunity, especially antitumor reactions, which are caused by factors such as prostaglandin E2, TGF-β, indolamine-2,3-dioxigenase (IDO) and interleukin (IL) -10, which leads to a decrease the sensitivity of T cells to proinflammatory signals and the ineffectiveness of the presentation of tumor antigens to immune cells, activation and polarization of innate immunity cells, namely neutrophils, macrophages and platelets, occurs.
Macrophages are important immune cells of the microenvironment in a tumor site that change their phenotype from M1 cells with antitumor activity to M2, which enhance tumor growth. The release of metalloprotheasis from platelet α -granules destroys the components of the extracellular matrix, increases the ability of cancer cells to pass through the endothelial barrier, penetrate the parenchyma and create metastatic tissue damage. Previously, neutrophils were mainly considered as cells of the body’s first line of defense, mainly with antimicrobial functions, but now they are regarded as cells with tumor-stimulating, “protumorogenic” activity, since in many types of cancer an increased level of neutron is determined with a reduced content of lymphocytes in the peripheral blood and this is associated with a poor prognosis of the disease. The review analyzes the hypothesis that there are three subpopulations of neutrophils in cancer: normal high density neutrophils, immature low density neutrophils (G-MDSC) and large mature low density neutrophils. These types of cells have different functions, for example, neutrophils with high density are antitumor, and with low density - cells that can stimulate tumor growth. ]. Neutrophils realize their activity through molecules such as neutrophilic elastase (NE), cathepsin, arginase 1 (ARG1), matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9). Multidirectional changes in the parts of the immune system depend on the histogenesis and degree of malignancy of the tumors and indicate differentiated use immunotropic drugs in cancer patients, some should suppress the activity of innate immunity cells, others stimulate the acquired immune response.
