Trucut biopsy as a first line diagnostic modality for equivocal or suspicious breast masses: an experience from a teaching hospital in Khyber Pukhtunkhwa
Authors: Falah Sheikh Qais , Bashir Iram , Marwat Arshad Ali , Shams Asif 
Published: November 2021

<p><strong>Background and Objective:</strong> Trucut biopsy (TCB) is a commonly used technique for histopathological diagnosis of a clinically and radiologically equivocal or suspicious breast mass. This study aimed to determine the sensitivity and specificity of TCB in the diagnosis of equivocal or suspicious breast masses at local tertiary care hospital in Khyber Pukhtunkhwa.</p>
<p><strong>Methods:</strong> This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted at the surgical unit of Mufti Mehmood Memorial Teaching Hospital, Dera Ismail Khan, Pakistan. The study included 80 patients who presented with equivocal or suspicious breast masses from September, 2015 to December, 2020. The patients underwent TCB and after the histopathology report, they were followed by a definitive surgical procedure. The histopathology diagnosis following TCB was compared with the histopathology report of postsurgical specimen to determine the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) of TCB taking post-surgery histopathology as a gold standard for diagnosis.</p>
<p><strong>Results:</strong> Out of the 80 patients, 68 (85%) were found to have a primary breast malignancy, while 12 (15%) patients were diagnosed with non-malignant lesions. There were only two false negative cases. The specificity and PPV of TCB were found to be 100%, while a sensitivity of 97% and a NPV of 85.7% was calculated.</p>
<p><strong>Conclusion:</strong> TCB is a valid, reliable, and simple first line minimally invasive method to determine the diagnosis of breast masses that are clinically and radiologically (breast imaging-reporting and data system 3 to 5) equivocal or suspicious.</p>
Dynamiques de formation à distance et usages des capsules vidéos - Entretien avec Michaël Bourgatte et Laurent Tessier
Authors: Chauveau Stéphanie 
Published: November 2021

Au cours des années 2010, la création et le partage de vidéos à des fins éducatives ont connu une croissance exponentielle. Ces pratiques ont été rendues possibles par l’amélioration de la qualité des réseaux, la démocratisation de technologies (smartphones, tablettes) et l’apparition de plateformes d’hébergement (en particulier YouTube). On a ainsi vu émerger de nouveaux formats d’enseignement à distance reposant principalement sur leurs usages : MOOC, SPOC, mais aussi des formations hybrides synchrones ou asynchrones. Au cœur de ces nouveaux formats pédagogiques, ces vidéos permettent d’articuler un propos et une mise en images. Pour autant, celles-ci sont souvent livrées en tant que simples illustrations. Dans ce contexte, comment concevoir des capsules pédagogiques pertinentes, intégrées à des scénarios innovants qui tirent réellement parti de leurs potentialités et favorisent la coconstruction des représentations et des savoirs? Lors d’un entretien, Michaël Bourgatte et Laurent Tessier, enseignants-chercheurs à l’Institut Catholique de Paris (ICP), évoquent leurs pratiques au sein d’un projet de laboratoire universitaire des innovations pédagogiques. Ils témoignent d’initiatives montrant que la vidéo mettant en scène des témoignages et des récits d’expérimentations peut être source de partage entre pairs et, à l’occasion, le recours à des outils d’annotation peut favoriser l’engagement de l’apprenant.
Identity Politics, Justice, and the Quest for Solidarity
Authors: Dunn Shannon 
Published: November 2021

Abstract
This article situates arguments against identity politics within a broader context of philosophical and political arguments about identity and the subject. One pervasive argument is that identity politics is a key factor working against social solidarity in a pluralistic democracy. In order to contest this claim, I use the work of feminist theorists who address a persistent bias against collective identity in Western philosophical thought. Finally, I argue that the practice of social solidarity requires not jettisoning identity, but re-conceptualizing identity in terms of narrative, which can serve as a basis for understanding one’s moral responsibility to others.

Authors: Sitanggang Murni Hermawaty 
Published: November 2021

ABSTRACT
This article discusses the problem about binding and loosing prayer or deliverance prayer in its popular term. For the proponent, this concept, binding and loosing prayer is considered the important part in spiritual warfare that had to be practiced every day. Whereas the group who refuse assume this kind of prayer is arisen more from experience than the thorough biblical exegesis. This article will discuss the controversy about this binding and loose prayer and then examine the biblical verses that use to be basic for this prayer for answer the main question, to what extent the authority that believer has in spiritual warfare.
Abstrak
Tulisan ini membahas problematika seputar doa mengikat dan melepaskan (binding and loosing prayer) atau yang juga populer dengan sebutan doa pelepasan. Bagi kalangan yang menganjurkannya, doa ini dianggap merupakan bagian penting dalam peperangan rohani yang harus dilakukan orang percaya setiap hari. Sedangkan bagi mereka yang menolaknya, doa ini lebih didasarkan pada pengalaman daripada penafsiran yang benar terhadap Alkitab. Tulisan ini akan membahas pro dan kontra tersebut kemudian menelaah ayat-ayat Alkitab yang biasanya dipakai untuk membenarkan praktik ini untuk kemudian menjawab pertanyaan utama: sejauh mana otoritas orang percaya dalam peperangan rohani.
«A-skole» eller «B-skole»? Målstyring og lærerprofesjonalitet i Osloskolen
Authors: Stavelie Hanne 
Published: November 2021

Denne artikkelen analyserer hvordan målstyring gjennom reformen Kunnskapsløftet (KL06) fortolkes og iverksettes av aktører på skolenivå, og drøfter hvorvidt reformen har endret læreres profesjonalitet. I samsvar med en transnasjonal, neoliberal reformtrend de senere tiårene, introduserte KL06 nye styringsmidler i det norske utdanningssystemet: Kompetansemålene i læreplanen, nasjonale prøver som måler elevenes læringsutbytte og ulike rettslige standarder og tilsyn holder skoler og lærere ansvarlige for utdanningskvaliteten. En slik ansvarliggjøring er særlig synlig i Oslo, der blant annet fritt skolevalg og offentliggjøring av elevresultater har bidratt til politisk og offentlig debatt om hvorvidt målstyringen har forsterket ulikheten mellom privilegerte, ressurssterke skoler (såkalte A-skoler) og marginaliserte, ressurssvake skoler (såkalte B-skoler). Artikkelen er en kvalitativ, komparativ casestudie av hvordan målstyring og profesjonsutvikling finner sted i to ungdomsskoler i Oslo, en typisk A-skole og en typisk B-skole. Med utgangspunkt i utdanningssosiologien tar studien i bruk Maroys (2012) perspektiver om den profesjonsbyråkratiske og den postbyråkratiske staten sammen med Evetts’ (2011) rammeverk rundt profesjonaliseringsprosesser i skolen. Det spesifikke forskningsspørsmålet er: Hvordan iverksetter A-skoler og B-skoler målstyring i sin lokale praksis, og hvilke implikasjoner har målstyringen for læreres profesjonalitet?
Empirien viser at politisk likebehandling kan forsterke ulikhet, og at dette former læreres profesjonsforståelse og profesjonsutøvelse på ulike måter i A-skolen og B-skolen. Årsaken er at målstyring som reformstrategi tar opp i seg både gamle og nye styringsformer når den iverksettes, samtidig som den overser lokale forhold når det kommer til hvordan lærerrollen endres med politiske styringsgrep. Artikkelen diskuterer sammenhenger mellom sosioøkonomiske forhold, lederstil og profesjonalitet.

Authors: Bernicker Eric H. , Xiao Yan , Croix Denise A. , Yang Baiyu , Abraham Anup , Redpath Stella , Engstrom-Melnyk Julia , Shah Roma , Allen Timothy Craig 
Published: November 2021

Context.—
With multiple therapeutic options available for patients with advanced non–small cell lung cancer, the timely ordering and return of results to determine therapy are of critical importance.

Objective.—
To assess factors impacting anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) test ordering and time to result delivery.

Design.—
A retrospective study using a de-identified electronic health record database was performed. Postdiagnosis ALK tests (n = 14 657) were analyzed from 14 197 patients with advanced non–small cell lung cancer diagnosed between January 2015 and May 2019. Time from non–small cell lung cancer diagnosis to ALK sample receipt in the laboratory was a surrogate for test order time. Test ordering was considered delayed if order time was more than 20 days. Turnaround time from sample received to test result was calculated and considered delayed if more than 10 days. Multivariable logistic regression was used to assess factors associated with order time and turnaround time delays.

Results.—
Median ALK test order time was 15 days, and 36.4% (5342) of all 14 657 orders were delayed. Factors associated with delays were non–fluorescence in situ hybridization testing, send-out laboratories, testing prior to 2018, nonadenocarcinoma histology, and smoking history. Median turnaround time was 9 days, and 40.3% (5906) of all 14 657 test results were delayed. Non–fluorescence in situ hybridization testing, tissue sample, and orders combining ALK with other biomarkers were associated with delayed ALK result reporting.

Conclusions.—
This study provides a snapshot of real-world ALK test ordering and reporting time in US community practices. Multiple factors impacted both test ordering time and return of results, revealing opportunities for improvement. It is imperative that patients eligible for targeted therapy be identified in a timely fashion.

Published: November 2021

The pathogenic variability of the sixty isolates of M. oryzae was confirmed by testing them for virulence and cultivar reaction against International rice blast differentials (IBD) viz., Raminad Str. 3, Zenith, Usen, NP-125, Kanto-51, Dular, Tsia-tiao-sio and Caloro lodging Piz, Pia, Pii, Pia, Pika, Pi-k and Piks resistance genes for rice blasteither singly or in combination or with an unknown background. The pathotype analysis of the isolates, collected from four surveyed districts of Kashmir valley revealed the presence of four races viz., IC-17, IC-25, ID-1 and II-1 according to the race classification and nomenclature proposed by Ling and Ou (1969). Of the 60 isolates of M. oryzae, 25 isolates pertained to race IC-17, 16 and 14 other isolates pertained to race ID-1 and II-1, respectively, whereas four other isolates pertained to race IC-25. The predominant pathotype was IC-17 with a virulence frequency of 60 %, followed by II-1 (46.67%) in district Pulwama, ID-1 (40%) and IC-25 (13.33%) in district Bandipora, respectively. IC-17 was seen to be the predominant race in each location in every district. Race ID-1 has been observed to overcome the maximum number of genes viz., Pia, Pika+, Piks and Pik. but none of the isolates was able to overcome Raminad Str 3 and Zenith.

Methanolic extracts of Alternanthera brasiliana exhibited no anti-candida activity at different concentrations.
Conclusion:The results show that Curcuma longa had better anti-candida activity against Candida spp. and might be promising, at least, in the treatment of Candida spp infections.
Attenuation of Quorum Sensing Controlled Virulence Factors and Biofilm Formation by Edible Fruit Extract of Coccinia indica against Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Authors: Devi R. Shruthi , Ganesh P. Sankar , Girija A. S. Smiline , Priyadharshini J. Vijayashree 
Published: November 2021

Background: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a Gram-negative opportunistic human pathogen that mainly infects immunocompromised individuals and patients with urinary tract infection and chronic infections of the respiratory pathways, including cystic fibrosis. Many quorum sensing (QS) controlled components such as bio surfactants and swarming motilities play an important role in the establishment of biofilms. Targeting these factors through anti-QS strategies prevent biofilm formation and treating infections. Coccinia indica commonly called little gourd is used to treat diabetes, wound, burn infections and has antioxidant, antibacterial and antitussive properties.
Methods: The methanolic fruit extract of C. indica was prepared and screened for anti-QS and anti-biofilm formation activity. Pyocyanin inhibition, rhamnolipid, crystal violet staining assay tests was performed and the extract was observed under fluorescent microscope.
Results: The results obtained are as follows - the fruit extract inhibits the pyocyanin at 58.13% and 42.27% at 0.5 mg/ml and 1.0 mg/ml, biofilm at 69.86% and 49.06% at 0.5 mg/ml and 1.0 mg/ml, inhibits rhamnolipid assay and under fluorescent microscope it is seen scattered whereas control produce biofilm matrix like appearance.
Conclusion: Since less study has been made on the quorum sensing and biofilm activity of C.indica our study aimed to fulfil it and it was found that it exhibits good biofilm formation and thus can be used for treating infections.

Authors: Mathew Elsa , Mukkadan J. K. 
Published: November 2021

Objective : Cardiovascular disease is amenable to mortality and morbidity in India and worldwide. The asymptomatic nature of hypertension made it a silent killer. Evidence suggests the role of oxidative stress and anxiety in the pathogenesis of hypertension. Lifestyle modification can control hypertension and, thus, can prevent complications. Music therapy is a non-invasive, non-pharmacological, and economic practice used for the management of hypertension, anxiety, and oxidative stress. The present study aims to evaluate the therapeutic effect of Raga Ananda Bhairavi on oxidative stress and anxiety in hypertensive patients.
Materials and Methods: This randomized control study comprises of a total of 120 participants of age between 30-60years. All the study participants were divided into an experimental and control group. The instrumental music of Raga Ananda Bhairavi was provided to the experimental group for three months. The anthropometric measurements, blood pressure assessment, and estimation of oxidative stress parameters were done in all subjects before and after three months of intervention.
Results: The systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, anxiety levels, and oxidative stress marker malondialdehyde significantly reduced after music therapy, and the superoxide dismutase level significantly improved after the intervention.
Conclusion: Music can be used as an adjunct therapy for the management of hypertension.
