Published: October 2020

This paper seeks to examine the challenges of professional accounting practices in Nigeria private sector with respect to financial failures in recent times. Survey technique was used and a total sample of one hundred and twenty questionnaires were sampled, purposive sampling technique was used to select one hundred and twenty (120) auditors, accountants, financial managers/directors and other management staff forms the bulk of the entire respondents. Descriptive statistical techniques such as frequency distribution and percentages response analysis were used to analyze data. Results however, revealed that majority are of the opinion that there is yet a level of quality in the financial reports as pertaining to the private sector. It also indicates that the business environment does not permit accountants independence overall. It therefore established the fact that the private sector has not been up to the task of meeting the user’s expectation in their financial reports. It thus implies that accountants are party to inadequacies of financial statements in the private sector. It thus implies that professional accounting practices are yet relevant in the financial reports of the private sector. It thus implies that professional accounting practices are identified with certain deficiency that affects disclosure in corporate organizations. This confirmed the depth of corruption and inefficiency in fund management of the private sector. This indicates that the reason for the shortfall in financial reporting is non conformity with professional accounting practices. This indicates that the accountants also contribute to the increasing financial failures of the private sector. This implies that the business environment of the private sector have an influence on the accountants. This confirms the extent at which these qualities reflect in private sector financial reporting. Based on these findings, it was recommended that emphasis on conformity with professional accounting practices. Also, to combat unethical practices by accountants and professional firms, there is a need to educate company executives, policy-makers and the public about the human costs of anti-social and unprofessional practices, as they deprive ordinary Nigerian citizens of their human and social rights and the accounting profession in Nigeria must therefore continue to monitor development in the external and internal reporting environments through its audit, investigations and forensic accounting faculty and respond adequately.

Authors: Hansson‐Forman Katarina , Sandström Camilla , Ericsson Göran 
Published: October 2020

Hunting, an activity conceptualized as part of wildlife management partnership between the state, landowners and hunting communities, is increasingly challenged by a decreasing hunter base. This has ecological, economic and socio‐cultural consequences, and the issue of hunter recruitment deserves more scholarly and political attention. In Sweden, the number of individuals taking a hunting proficiency test is high even though the number of hunters has declined during the last few decades although with a recovery the last 12 months, indicating an under‐utilized source of potential new hunters. We explore in an interview study with potential new hunters in Sweden what factors affect and motivate individuals to take the hunter proficiency test and to hunt. Our thematic analysis identifies structural, institutional and individual factors influencing hunting participation, such as social networks and access to land, rendering two ideal types of new hunters. We offer suggestions to help curb the negative trend of declining hunter numbers and we identify research gaps for future studies to address.

Published: October 2020

Introduction: Carcinosarcoma or Malignant Mixed Mullerian Tumor (MMMT) of the uterus is a rare malignant tumor comprising both carcinomatous and sarcomata’s components. Worldwide it accounts for two to five percentages of all uterine malignancies. However, there is a paucity of reports in Nepalese literature.
Case report: A 62 year’s postmenopausal woman with diabetes and hypertension presented with urinary symptoms for two months and passage of fleshy mass per vagina for two days. Ultrasound was inconclusive, whereas, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) showed an endo-cervical mass. Pre-operative biopsy of the masssuggested leiomyosarcoma. Abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy and pelvic andpara-aortic lymphadenectomy was performed. Per-operatively, an atrophic uterus, a dimple in the funds, andballooning of the lower uterine segment and vagina were noted. The cut section showed an exophytic polypoidalmass with base in the fundus. Histopathology revealed Stage IA carcinosarcoma with aggressive mitotic figures. Immunohistochemistry confirmed the diagnosis of carcinosarcoma with a heterogonous rhabdomyosarcomatouscomponent. Adjuvant chemotherapy and radiation therapy was advised.
Conclusion: The preoperative diagnosis of carcinosarcoma or MMMT was difficult and might be missed on biopsy as well. Owing to its aggressive nature and higher rates of post-surgical recurrence, carcinosarcoma accounts for around one-fifth of deaths due to uterine malignancies. Surgery is the primary treatment modality, yet much study is needed before evidence-based adjuvant management for improving its outcome is established.

Background: In recent years, the incidence of prostate cancer (PCa) is increasing. Advanced PCa has a poor prognosis and high cost, which seriously affects the quality of life of patients. Therefore, how to improve the diagnosis rate and prognosis of early PCa is the focus of clinical research. This paper aims to investigate the value of P504s, 34βE12, Ki-67 and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) in the diagnosis and prognosis of PCa.
Objective: To investigate the expression of P504s, 34βE12, Ki67 and PSA in prostate tissues and their clinical significance.
Methods: Twenty four cases in the study group were selected from PCa confirmed by pathology in the urology department of Chengde Affiliated Hospital from October 2018 to August 2020, and 33 cases of Benign Prostate Hyperplasia (BPH) confirmed by pathology in the same period were selected as the control group. The expression of P504s, 34βE12 and Ki-67 in prostate tissues were determined by immunohistochemistry.
Results: The positive expression rates of P504s, 34βE12 and TPSA or F/TPSA in PCa patients were 95.8%, 12.5%and 87.5%, respectively. The positive rates in BPH patients were 9.1%, 93.9% and 27.3%, The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (p<0.05). PCa bone or lymph node metastasis was positively correlated with Ki-67 (r=0.423, p<0.05) and Gleason score (r=0.446, p<0.05), indicating a stronger correlation with Gleasonscore.
Conclusion: The combined detection of P504s, 34βE12 and PSA is helpful for the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of PCa. High Gleason score and ki-67 expression may indicate high risk of PCa metastasis and poor prognosis.

Published: October 2020

Papuloerythroderma of Ofuji was first described by Ofuji in 1984. This rare entity is characterized by presence of polygonal, erythematous to brown papules, covering the entire body surface, with a characteristic sparing of body folds (deck chair sign). On hematological investigations, there is characteristic eosinophilia with lymphopenia. It may or may not be associated with underlying malignancies. We report a case of a 81 year male patient where a diagnosis of Papuloerythrodrma secondary to non-Hodgkin`s lymphoma was made based on the criteria laid by Torchia et Al. Our patient satisfied 4 out of 5 major criteria and all 5 of the minor criteria. This case is reported because of its rarity and characteristic clinical presentation.
Fatigue life performance of multi-material connections hybrid joined by self-piercing rivets and adhesive
Authors: Presse Jan , Michler Thorsten , Künkler Boris 
Published: October 2020

Abstract
The multi-material design presented contains EN AW-6016 aluminum and high strength CR330Y590T-DP steel. This dissimilar combination is an example of an affordable lightweight design solution, but it requires an adapted joining technology. Hybrid joining technologies such as selfpiercing riveting (SPR) in combination with a structural adhesive enables an assembly of such dissimilar material combinations. In addition to higher manufacturing costs for mechanical joining the design process still requires a great amount of effort. This study provides a simple approach for assessing hybrid joined multi-material connections. Therefore, tests for several combinations of the most relevant parameters on fatigue life (material properties, sheet thickness, load cases) were performed under quasi-static and cyclic loads. Based on the data acquired, it is shown that the fatigue life of hybrid joined connections can be estimated by superposing the contributing fatigue life of purely SPR and purely adhesive joints.
Comparison of FDM-printed and compression molded tensile samples
Authors: Roj Robin , Nürnberg Jessica , Theiß Ralf , Dültgen Peter 
Published: October 2020

Abstract
Since the processing of plastics by additive manufacturing techniques, for example, fused deposition modeling, has become quite common, it is mainly used for the production of unique pieces for private consumption as well as for prototyping in industry. In order to professionally manufacture plastic components in large amounts, due to time, cost, and quality factors, injection molding is more suitable. Nevertheless, it is of great interest to print plastic parts in small batch series for technical tasks. In this paper, FDM-produced tensile samples, made from 16 materials, printed in three orientations, are compared to compression molded components. In addition to ordinary filaments, composite materials with metal-, carbon-, wood-, and stone-additives are also examined. While some cavities emerged in both printed and molded samples, the results support the hypothesis that the mechanical properties depend on the components’ densities.
Determination of readiness for laying based on material moisture, corresponding relative humidity, and water release
Authors: Strangfeld Christoph , Kruschwitz Sabine 
Published: October 2020

Abstract
The moisture content of the subfloor has to be determined before installation to avoid damage to the floor covering. Only if readiness for layering is reached, can an installation without damage be expected in all cases. In general, three approaches exist to measure residual water content: determination of moisture content, determination of water release, or determination of the corresponding relative humidity. All three approaches are tested under laboratory conditions at eight screed types including two samples thicknesses in each case. Moisture content and water release are measured by sample weighing, the corresponding relative humidity is measured by embedded sensors. All three approaches are compared and correlated. The evaluations show only a weak correlation and, in several cases, contradicting results. Samples are considered ready for layering and not ready for layering at the same time, depending on the chosen approach. Due to these contradicting results, a general threshold for a risk of damage cannot be derived based on these measurements. Furthermore, the experiment demonstrates that the measurement of corresponding relative humidity is independent of the screed type or screed composition considered. This makes humidity measurement a potentially very promising approach for the installation of material moisture monitoring systems.

Authors: Çavdar Uğur Ç , Gül Burak , Gezici Levent Ulvi , Ayvaz Mehmet 
Published: October 2020

Abstract
In this study, it was aimed to determine and compare the sinterability of aluminum-SiO2 composites by conventional and fast sintering methods and to examine their tribological properties after the sintering process. For this purpose, 1, 3, 5, 9, and 15 wt.-% SiO2 reinforced aluminum matrix composites were sintered by a conventional and induction sintering method at 600 °C after uniaxial cold pressing under 200 MPa pressure. The sintering was performed for 30 minutes for the traditional method and 5 minutes for induction sintering. After the sintering, the microstructures of the samples were examined, and their sintered densities and hardness were determined. In addition, the tribological properties of the samples were investigated by the pin-on-disc method, and the worn surfaces were examined after the tests.

Crapemyrtle Bark Scale Acanthococcus (=Eriococcus) lagerstroemiae (Kuwana) (Insecta: Hemiptera: Eriococcidae)
Authors: Borden Matthew , Martini Xavier , Dale Adam 
Published: October 2020

The crapemyrtle bark scale is an invasive felt scale in the family Eriococcidae (or Acanthococcidae, as the taxonomy of this family is still being debated). This group is in the superfamily Coccoidea (scale insects) and the order Hemiptera (true bugs). Felt scales, also called bark scales, are not considered either armored scales or soft scales. As of early 2018, crapemyrtle bark scale has not yet been reported in Florida, however, it has been found in Alabama and Georgia and is expected eventually to spread into Florida. At that time, early detection and treatment will be critical to minimize further spread within the state.

Paradoxical bronchoconstriction caused by β2-adrenoceptor agonists
Authors: Ayed Khadija , Hadi Khalifa Islam Latifa , Mokaddem Salma , Ben Khamsa Jameleddine Saloua 
Published: October 2020

Introduction: Salbutamol and terbutaline are short-acting β2 adrenergic agonists that produce bronchial smooth muscle relaxation and are widely used in obstructive pulmonary diseases. Nevertheless, their use has been the cause of a paradoxical bronchoconstriction, which is a rare and potentially serious adverse reaction. The aim of this study is to report a case of paradoxical bronchoconstriction caused by β2 adrenergic agonists.
Methods: This case is about a 50-year-old asthmatic patient who describes a history of repeated acute asthma attacks after salbutamol inhalation or terbutaline nebulization. A double-blind crossover study was performed over 3 days, in order to compare the effects of each bronchodilator. Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC), and maximal expiratory flow 25-75 (MEF25-75) were measured.
Results: On the first day, a bronchoconstriction caused by deep and repeated inhalations was eliminated. On the second day, an airway obstruction was confirmed by a decrease in FEV1 at 40% from baseline values after nebulization of a standard dose of terbutaline. On the third day, a spirometry was performed before and after nebulization of a standard dose of ipratropium bromide, and there were no significant changes in the spirometric parameters. Finally the patient was discharged with a written warning mentioning the danger of salbutamol and terbutaline use.
Conclusion: Salbutamol and terbutaline are generally well-tolerated β2 adrenergic agonists. Nevertheless, in rare cases, these substances can cause a paradoxical bronchoconstriction. Doctors must therefore remain vigilant about its side effect and possibly investigate each case.
Omsorgsorgsarbetet i brytningen mellan privat och offentligt
Authors: Michaeli Inga 
Published: October 2020

Välfärdsstaten med dess omsorg i offentlig regi, har medfört att gränsen mellan privat och offentligt har luckrats upp. Motstridiga krav på empati och distans, på omsorg och rättvisa riktas i dag mot personal i vård och omsorg. Inom moralfilosofin diskuteras former för att hantera dessa motsättningar. I artikeln diskuteras två konkreta rättsfall i relation till en sådan moralfilosofisk modell. Syftet är att ge ett bidrag till en omsorgspolitisk diskussion. Ytterst handlar den om tänkbara nya organisatoriska och arbetsrättsliga former som välfärdsstatens förändring tvingar fram.

Socialbidragstagande och statusbunden skamkänsla – En prövning av ekonomi - sociala band modellen
Authors: Starrin Bengt , Kalander Blomkvist Marina , Janson Staffan 
Published: October 2020

I den här artikeln studeras skam och skamrelaterade känslor bland socialbidragstagare. Det görs i ljuset av den s.k. ekonomi-sociala band modellen som i sig fogar samman två vetenskapliga framställningar om skam. Den ekonomiska sidan beaktar den sida som knyter skam och skamrelaterade känslor till bl.a. fattigdom. Den sida som handlar om sociala band förbinder skam och skamrelaterade känslor med kvaliteten i de sociala relationerna.
