Authors: Watanabe Wataru , Sato Kozo , Itoi Eiji , Yang Kunitaka , Watanabe Hidetoshi 
Published: June 2020

Abstract
The relationship between pelvic tilt and acetabular femoral head covering was determined in 38 patients with decreased lumbar lordosis. Posterior pelvic tilt and acetabular femoral head covering were measured on radiographs taken in both supine and standing positions. Previously reported normal values obtained from 96 patients were used as controls. Posterior pelvic tilt increased (P<.01) in patients with decreased lumbar lordosis and anterior acetabular femoral head covering decreased (P<.0001) compared with the controls. These differences were more remarkable in the standing position than in the supine position. Patients with decreased lumbar lordosis have decreased femoral head covering, especially in the standing position.

AbstractIL-23 promotes autoimmune disease, including Th17 CD4 T cell development and autoantibody production. In this study, we show that a deficiency of the p19 component of IL-23 in the autoimmune BXD2 (BXD2-p19−/−) mouse leads to a shift of the follicular T helper cell program from follicular T helper (Tfh)–IL-17 to Tfh–IFN-γ. Although the germinal center (GC) size and the number of GC B cells remained the same, BXD2-p19−/− mice exhibited a lower class-switch recombination (CSR) in the GC B cells, leading to lower serum levels of IgG2b. Single-cell transcriptomics analysis of GC B cells revealed that whereas Ifngr1, Il21r, and Il4r genes exhibited a synchronized expression pattern with Cxcr5 and plasma cell program genes, Il17ra exhibited a synchronized expression pattern with Cxcr4 and GC program genes. Downregulation of Ighg2b in BXD2-p19−/− GC B cells was associated with decreased expression of CSR-related novel base excision repair genes that were otherwise predominantly expressed by Il17ra+ GC B cells in BXD2 mice. Together, these results suggest that although IL-23 is dispensable for GC formation, it is essential to promote a population of Tfh–IL-17 cells. IL-23 acts indirectly on Il17ra+ GC B cells to facilitate CSR-related base excision repair genes during the dark zone phase of GC B cell development.

Midazolam Orally for Sedation during Pediatric Intrathecal Chemotherapy: Unmet Need of Distress-Free Procedures for Cancer Kids in India
Authors: Mullapally Sujith Kumar 
Published: June 2020

AbstractPreprocedural sedation is the part of standard operating procedures for pediatric intrathecal chemotherapy in developed countries and uses predominantly intravenous route. In India, due to the limited availability of pediatric oncology facilities and the increased patient numbers at those centers, no such intervention is possible. This article discusses this issue and proposes the use of oral midazolam in this context for large-scale utilization.
Upfront Maintenance Poly(Adenosine Diphosphate Ribose) Polymerase Inhibitors in Ovarian Cancer: A Ray of Hope or Just a Mirage!
Authors: Pandey Avinash , Ghosh Joydeep 
Published: June 2020

AbstractPoly(adenosine diphosphate ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPis), when used in patients harboring tumor with homologous recombination deficiency, with or without BRCA mutation, have shown favorable outcomes in relapsed, advanced metastatic breast and ovarian cancers. Olaparib, niraparib, and rucaparib have been approved as maintenance therapy in platinum-sensitive, relapsed, high-grade epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) responsive to platinum doublet. Olaparib and rucaparib as monotherapy are also indicated in patients who have progressed on three or more lines of chemotherapy, irrespective of platinum sensitivity, in germline or somatic BRCA 1/2-mutated, PARPi-naive patients. Recently, four large multicentric, international Phase III randomized clinical trials have reported outcomes of PARPi in first-line advanced EOC as maintenance therapy either alone or in combination with bevacizumab. Previously bevacizumab, pazopanib, nindetanib, or maintenance chemotherapy in first-line setting has resulted in modest improvements in progression free survival, albeit with significant toxicities and poor cost-effectiveness. We offer in this review to dissect the data pertaining to randomized clinical trials of PARPi use as maintenance therapy in upfront EOCs and ruminate about its role in the contemporary management of ovarian cancers.

Junto com o grande crescimento da tecnologia da informação crescem também as formas de ataques cibernéticos que ameaçam a segurança da informação. Uma dessas ameaças, que além de perigosa é desconhecida por muitos é a Engenharia Social, que busca obter informações enganando usuários. Ela abrange um grande conjunto de técnicas para chegar ao seu objetivo, e a mais utilizada é o Phishing cujo significado é pescar. Desta forma, é de extrema importância o conhecimento por parte de empresas e usuários sobre como ocorrem e funcionam essas técnicas. Para tanto se fez necessário um estudo em bibliografias de autores renomados, que embasaram o desenvolvimento desta pesquisa. O objetivo principal se propõe a mostrar e analisar o funcionamento da técnica Phishing, para isso foram analisados dois estudos de casos, com detalhes de como ocorre o ataque e elaboradas políticas de segurança da informação, sendo uma proativa e outra reativa que se implementadas corretamente aumentam a segurança empresarial contra tipos de ataques de Engenharia Social, principalmente o Phishing. Em suma as políticas de segurança criadas podem oferecer um maior nível de segurança se aplicadas corretamente, porém somente o uso delas não apresenta uma total garantia de segurança contra todos os tipos de ataques de Engenharia Social e Phishing.

Abstract
The purpose of this review article is to summarize some of the most important pieces of historical evidence and interpretation that William Dever provides in his book, to respond to major points of disagreement that I have with his interpretation, and to appreciate the importance of this volume in the current discussion of the history of ancient Israel. This requires an examination of specific archaeological artifacts and tells, something the Dever covers so well in his integration into a historical picture. It also touches briefly on many of the major issues regarding Israel’s history from its origins to the 7th century and the Babylonian destruction of Jerusalem and Judah.
Long-term outcomes after radical or partial nephrectomy for T1a renal cell carcinoma: A population-based study
Authors: Nayan Madhur , Saarela Olli , Lawson Keith , Martin Lisa , Komisarenko Maria , Finelli Antonio 
Published: June 2020

Introduction: The benefit of partial nephrectomy (PN) compared to radical nephrectomy (RN) for T1a renal cell carcinoma (RCC) remains uncertain, with observational studies conflicting with level 1 evidence. Therefore, the purpose of this population-based study was to compare long-term outcomes in patients undergoing PN or RN for T1a RCC.
Methods: We studied 5670 patients in Ontario, Canada undergoing PN or RN for T1a RCC. The primary outcome was overall survival (OS). Secondary outcomes were cancer-specific survival (CSS), chronic kidney disease (CKD), end-stage renal disease (ESRD), and myocardial infarction (MI). We used multivariable Cox proportional hazard models to evaluate the association between PN or RN and these outcomes. A sensitivity analysis was performed in patients with a preoperative serum creatinine available.
Results: Median followup was 77 months. Compared to RN, PN was associated with significantly improved OS (hazard ratio [HR] 0.73; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.63–0.84), reduced risk of CKD (HR 0.18; 95% CI 0.12–0.27) and improved CSS (HR 0.45; 95% CI 0.30–0.65). The risk of myocardial infarction was not significantly different between groups (HR 0.91; 95% CI 0.62–1.34). Few patients (n=15) required renal replacement therapy. In the sensitivity analysis, the association between type of surgery and OS and CKD persisted, while the association with CSS did not.
Conclusions: Our study found that in patients undergoing surgery for T1a RCC, PN was associated with improved OS and reduced risk of CKD compared to RN. However, few patients in either group developed ESRD requiring renal replacement therapy.
Quinteto de Buenos Aires: La educación sentimental de Pepe Carvalho
Authors: Ríos-Font Wadda C. 
Published: June 2020

Este trabajo se acerca a la novela Quinteto de Buenos Aires (1997) de Manuel Vázquez Montalbán desde la perspectiva de teorías de la afectividad, trazando cómo en ella la racionalidad convencional tanto del género detectivesco como de la Serie Carvalho en etapas anteriores da paso a un proceso por el cual el protagonista, personalmente implicado en el caso que investiga, atraviesa una trayectoria primordialmente sentimental. El estilo fragmentado que recuerda la composición musical, y la trama del misterio, en cuya resolución Carvalho finalmente ocupa una posición casi tangencial, eluden cualquier avance lineal hacia el descubrimiento y la justicia. Mediante entrecruzamientos, reduplicaciones entre situaciones y personajes, y un complejo entramado de relaciones intertextuales e interartísticas, la novela deviene una épica de genealogías interrumpidas que termina en algo más parecido a una catarsis que a la restauración simbólica de un orden moral o la superación de un pacto de olvido. En lugar de estos posibles objetivos, puede hablarse de la historia narrada sobre todo como ejercicio de subversión emocional de regímenes opresivos apoyados, como las dictaduras española y argentina, en la regulación de lo afectivo.

Viajes al futuro y sociedad del simulacro: Modernidad, Disneyficación y ruinas de la resistencia en Quinteto de Buenos Aires de Manuel Vázquez Montalban
Authors: Nichols William 
Published: June 2020

A lo largo de la obra de Manuel Vázquez Montalbán, tanto en las obras dentro de la serie Carvalho como fuera y en la producción de libros no-ficción, el viaje sirve para como ímpetu narrativo además de eje temático para indagar las contradicciones de la globalización y explorar la memoria como estrategia de resistencia. Por un lado, el viaje ofrece una metáfora que evoca la supuesta disolución de las fronteras dentro del contexto globalizado y el libre movimiento de personas, productos, y capital. Por otro, la mirada crítica del viajero cuestiona la autenticidad de la sociedad globalizada que esconde los escombros del pasado bajo las superficies lisas y brillantes de las ciudades rediseñadas bajo la lógica Disney del simulacro. El viaje está presente en la producción literaria de Vázquez Montalbán desde la primera apariencia de Carvalho en Yo maté a Kennedy hasta los últimos tomos de Milenio I y II. El propósito de este ensayo es analizar la estructura del viaje en Quinteto en Buenos Aires como una investigación que cuestiona capacidad de resistir la globalización, encontrar la autenticidad cultural, y preservar la memoria y el pensamiento crítico. En este ensayo, el autor considerará a Vázquez Montalbán como una voz profética que anunciaba los efectos demoledores para el pensamiento crítico con la creación del “Gran consumidor” que él describía en Panfleto desde el planeta de los simios.

Libros como puentes: Bibliografía latinoamericana de Manuel Vázquez Montalbán. Archivo en construcción
Authors: José Colmeiro 
Published: June 2020

El ensayo trata de sentar las bases bibliográficas para elaborar una arqueología de la relación de la obra de Manuel Vázquez Montalbán con Latinoamérica. Por un lado, intenta recoger e inventariar la abundante y dispersa obra montalbaniana sobre temas relacionados con Latinoamérica, diseminada a lo largo de numerosos libros de ensayo, novelas, poemas, artículos y columnas periodísticas, amén de prólogos de libros y entrevistas. Un repaso a los libros publicados por Vázquez Montalbán con foco específicamente latinoamericano, ya sean ensayos, novelas, entrevistas u obras de nuevo periodismo, nos indica con claridad ciertas áreas de atención primordial en sus reflexiones sobre Latinoamérica. Igualmente, la revisión de los artículos y columnas periodísticas de Vázquez Montalbán sobre Latinoamérica constituye toda una arqueología que demuestra igualmente la atención especial por los aspectos políticos que han conformado la historia de Latinoamérica en los últimos cincuenta años. Por otro lado, se trata también de crear un archivo de referencias críticas acerca de la obra de Vázquez Montalbán con acentos latinoamericanos, para que ambas conjuntamente sirvan de base sobre la que poder ir articulando las piezas de una siempre creciente bibliografía para estudiosos y lectores de la obra de Vázquez Montalbán a ambos lados del Atlántico.

Aquifer Characterization: The Case of Hawassa City Aquifer
Authors: Gulta Shemsu , Abate Brook 
Published: June 2020

Hydrogeologists and other water experts agree on that the effective groundwater management requires: firstly, a good understanding of the aquifer system; secondly, identification of practical measures to control abstraction; and thirdly, improvement in groundwater resource through artificial recharge. A 16 years’ pumping test and drilling lithology data and productive 29 wells were used to characterize the aquifer parameters of the Hawassa City, Ethiopia. The aquifer system was characterized physically, potentially, spatially, quantitatively, and qualitatively using AquiferTest software by applying Moench method to pumping test response data considering the basic assumptions in the model. Weathered and fractured pumice, basalt Scoriaceous rocks, fine-to-coarse-grained sand, and weathered ignimbrites are major water-bearing formations found from the analysis. High porosity and permeability due to these fractures are found to be a risk for the easy contamination of the ground water from surface wastes especially at the shallow aquifer water areas. Spatially, the southern corner and the lake shore of the city were identified as a huge potential area. Percentage of recovery results are 95–100% and transmissivity varies from 4.77 × 10−4 m2/s to 1.75 × 101 m2/s. This follows the general pattern of increasing value from east to west, that is, the value increases from the upper part of the basin to the lower. Moreover, the annual ground flow vector map of the area was developed using static water level data to see the direction of subsurface flow in the area. Accordingly, a large magnitude of water flowing from the central and west directions to the lake shore is identified showing similar profile with the surface flow.
Cystic Fibrosis-Related Diabetes (CFRD)
Authors: Ballmann Manfred 
Published: June 2020

Cystic fibrosis-related diabetes (CFRD) is the most frequent comorbidity in CF. The prevalence is age-dependent and abnormalities in/of glucose homeostasis start early in life. As CFRD has an impact on pulmonary function and life expectancy, early diagnosis and treatment is mandatory. Screening is needed because initially, most patients with CFRD do not show any typical symptoms of diabetes. The question of which screening method gets the best results is still under discussion. For treatment insulin is recommended but a relevant percentage of patients do not use it, and even if insulin is used, there is no consensus on what the best insulin regime in the case of CFRD is. Recently, oral antidiabetic drugs were shown to be as effective and safe as insulin in the initial treatment of CFRD. This treatment might reduce the additional treatment burden for patients with CFRD. The best way to monitor CFRD is also under discussion (HbA1c and/or continuous glucose monitoring; CGM). The threshold of HbA1c might be lower than for other types of diabetes. As patients with CF become older, the duration of CFRD will also increase and typical diabetes complications will occur. So far, these are mainly microvascular complications. The new CFTR modulators might influence not only pulmonary function but potentially also glucose homeostasis.
« VERS UN ESPACE QUI PRENAIT VIE À CHAQUE FOULÉE »
Authors: Phaneuf-Jolicoeur1 Xavier 
Published: June 2020

Si certains ont perçu dans Atavismes (2011), recueil de Raymond Bock, un
mouvement d’inquiétude, d’étiolement, de désespoir, cet article propose qu’il ne s’agit pas
là de la finalité du livre : celui-ci affecterait plutôt le repli par entêtement vital,
précisément pour échapper aux impasses. On étudie d’abord l’équivoque, qui est au coeur du
recueil, à la lumière de manifestations de l’irrésolution chez les personnages, des
brouillages qui marquent l’écriture et les voix de ces protagonistes, mais aussi de leurs
élans de violence et de fuite. On avance ensuite, en s’appuyant sur la figure du coureur des
bois — l’être de l’entre-deux, des risques et des possibles — que si Atavismes
accélère, dans la fiction, le mouvement de la défaite, c’est moins pour déplorer un
affaiblissement irrésistible que pour harnacher, de façon souterraine, les forces qui mènent
à l’épuisement en espérant en tirer une détermination et une vigueur neuves.
