Published: January 2021

El presente artículo tiene como finalidad realizar el análisis de la política de inclusión educativa en el Ecuador y su relación con el accionar pedagógico vigente en los escenarios educativos. Los sistemas educativos del estado ecuatoriano a pesar de estar alineados a parámetros internacionales de inclusión, no ha superado la brecha de discriminación a las personas con necesidades educativas especiales (NEE). El presente documento aporta principalmente a la innovación en el pensamiento pedagógico de los docentes, para ello, parte del informe de Warnock (documento que fue elaborado por la Comisión de Educación británica) el mismo que revoluciona en la forma de pensar de todos cuando revela que “no existen niños ineducables” (Warnock, 1987, p. 15). La metodología utilizada en la estructuración de este trabajo es de carácter inductiva – deductiva y se apoya en la investigación bibliográfica. Los resultados del presente estudio revelan falencias y dificultades en la inclusión educativa de estudiantes con NEE, los problemas más relevantes que se observaron fueron las deficiencias conceptuales en torno a inclusión educativa, escaso conocimiento sobre un currículo inclusivo y debilidades en una supuesta homogeneidad en el aula. Este documento presenta brevemente algunas perspectivas y desafíos para promover un pensamiento inclusivo pero, sobre todo, abierto a la diversidad.
Estudio lingüístico sobre las dimensiones contextuales de la caricatura política
Authors: Pérez Mariela , Vielma-Orellana Yonarlli 
Published: January 2021

La caricatura constituye uno de los géneros periodísticos de opinión de gran auge en las últimas décadas, en ella se conjugan multimodalmente la ironía, el humor y la sátira para analizar los hechos relevantes de un país. El análisis del discurso permite establecer una relación conjunta entre la realidad social y la cognitiva en este tipo de texto. Esta investigación se propone analizar, desde el enfoque pragmático, el discurso de la caricatura política de Eduardo Sanabria sobre la contienda electoral de 2017 en Venezuela bajo un enfoque cualitativo y diseño descriptivo-exploratorio. El análisis del discurso es la técnica empleada. El corpus estuvo conformado por cinco caricaturas publicadas en el diario El Nacional días previos a los comicios y cuyo tópico central se circunscribe a la convocatoria electoral. El análisis identificó los contextos: icónico – lingüístico, situacional y sociocultural. Los actos de habla y las figuras retóricas se identificaron como estrategias discursivas dirigidas a evidenciar la intencionalidad de una comunicación ostensiva como es la caricatura. Se tomaron los aportes de la Teoría de la Relevancia (Sperber y Wilson, 2004) y de la Teoría de los actos de habla (Austin, 2016; Searle, 2017). Se evidencia un macroacto de habla ilocutivo como es la convocatoria a votar. Se concluye que el discurso de las caricaturas de Sanabria expresa la crítica sobre el evento electoral a partir del juego de lo implícito, construido discursivamente entre lo icónico – lingüístico, el componente retórico y el contexto, estableciéndose una relación de complicidad con el lector.

Authors: Zakaria Nurul Aulia , Pasi Hafizah , Shahar Mohammad Arif 
Published: January 2021

Introduction: Systolic Time Interval (STI) is a simple,noninvasive and precise technique to assess left ventricular (LV) function. It measures aortic Pre-Ejection Period (PEP) over Left Ventricular Ejection Time (LVET) from echocardiogram. Thyrotoxicosis will enhance LV function and cause reduction of STI. This study was perform to measure the changes of STI after administration of high dose L-thyroxine and to determine the correlation between high dose L-thyroxine administration and STI. Materials and Method: A Total of 22 patients were screened. Those with cardiac diseases and high Framingham risk score were excluded. Nine patients were started on high dose L-thyroxine (7x their usual dose) once a week during the month of Ramadan.Thyroid hormones ( T3,T4,TSH)Â and STI (PEP/LVET) were measured at baseline and within 24 hrs after high dose L-thyroxine ingestion. Results: All patients have normal thyroid hormones level and normal cardiac function at baseline. The median dose (mcg) of L-thyroxine was 600 (437.5,700) while the median level of fT4 (pmol/L) was 17.43(12.38,20.8). Despite the significant increment of fT4 after Lthyroxine ingestion [baseline 13.21(8.19,14.63) vs high dose 17.43(12.38,22.55) p; 0.011] there was no significant change in STI [baseline 0.3(0.2,0.4) vs high dose 0.28(0.26,0.45) p; 0.513]. There was no correlation found between the dose of Lthyroxine and STI (r=0.244 , p;0.526). Conclusion: Administration of high dose Lthyroxine did not significantly alter STI despite significant increment of fT4 level unlike the naturally occurring thyrotoxicosis.Therefore ‘exogenous’ administration of high dose L-thyroxine is cardiac safe.

Published: January 2021

Introduction: Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a sleep related breathing disorder with recurrent episodes of apnoea or hypopnoea occurring during sleep. It is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease and prone to accidents. However, there is no applicable study that assess the risk for OSA at the primary care level. Objective: This study aims to assess the prevalence of risk for OSA and OSA symptoms and its associated risk factors among adults attending primary care clinics. Materials and method: This cross-sectional study was conducted among 252 adults attending four Klinik Kesihatan in Kuantan, Pahang. The inclusion criteria was adults age 30 years old and above. The exclusion criteria were a known case of Hypothyroidism, Depression and pregnancy. A self-administered validated Malay version of Berlin Questionnaire(BQ) was used to screen for high risk of OSA. The statistical analyses were done using IBM SPSS version 23.0. Results: Majority of the respondents were male (54%), Malay (87.7%), and married (79.4%). The prevalence of High Risk for OSA was 32.9%. Among these, 94% of them presented with snoring and 16.9% presented with excessive daytime sleepiness. Among male, Malay and married; 48%, 32.6% and 36.5% respectively was shown to be High Risk for OSA. The risk factors that were found significantly associated with High Risk of OSA includes younger age (AOR=0.951 CI=0.923-0.980); higher BMI classification with obese type 1 (AOR=2.604 CI=1.278-5.308), obese type 2 (AOR=3.882 CI=1.078-13.975) and obese type 3 (AOR=6.800 CI=1.164-39.717); higher neck circumference (AOR=1.109 CI=1.007-1.221); hypertension (AOR=2.297 CI=1.122-4.702); and hypercholestrolaemia (AOR=2.040 CI=1.050-3.965). Conclusions: This study shows that nearly one third of the adults attending primary health clinic are at High Risk for OSA and nearly 17% of them presented with excessive daytime sleepiness. Further study need to be carry out particularly among those of younger age, higher BMI classification, and with co-morbidities.
Issues on Purification of Surgical Instruments Practice from Najasah (Najis) of a Dog
Authors: Ariffin Mohd Ariffullah , Soldin Aizat , Awang Shukrimi 
Published: January 2021

Introduction: From Quran, dogs were mentioned several times in different perspectives. Surah al-Maidah , informs that a hunting dog’s catch is lawful to be eaten. An authentic hadith about a prostitute who gave water to a dog and her sins were forgiven and was promised heaven. Case report: MrJ, 35 years old gentleman, sustained 3cm x 2cm over left leg following a dog bite. Patient underwent emergency operation and appropriate antibiotic given. After operation, the nurse had washed entire surgical instruments with taharah soap, washed it again six times with water and followed by enzymatic detergent before sending for autoclaving. Discussion: The status of dog impurities and how to clean it derived from hadith narrated by Abu Hurairah: ‘Rasulullah PBUH said: ‘Cleaning a utensil that has been licked by a dog is by washing it seven times and one of the washing cycle is mixed with soil”. Majority Muslims in Malaysia follow Shafi'i sect, where dog’s saliva and all its body are considered ritually mughallazah. Thus, if touched, they are required to cleanse the body part that came into contact with a specific Islamic ritual as mentioned. Up to date, there is no official guideline from KKM or JAKIM related to this. Surgical instruments used for the operation related to dog bite injury were not in direct contact with the dog. This practice imposes unnecessary steps for staffs. Apart from that, there are no study done on the effect of commercially manufactured soil-based soap to surgical instruments. The information regarding content also unclear. Surgical instruments are sensitive and expensive, thus improper handling can expedite damage to the instruments. Conclusion: KKM and JAKIM are recommended to produce SOP regarding this issue. Effort should be done to produce medical grade soil-based cleansing agent. Study should be done to evaluate the safety to surgical instruments.
The Impact of Paediatric Anaesthesia Information Leaflet in Reducing Parental and Child Anxiety in Paediatric Surgery
Authors: Abdul Wahid Marni Mahfuzah 
Published: January 2021

Introduction: The process of anaesthesia is one of the most important anxiety precipitating factors for both parent and child who is going for operation. Parental anxiety may adversely affect the children during perioperative period. Studies have shown that anxious parents would want to be provided with more information prior to their child’s surgery. We examined the effects of additional paediatric information leaflet on parents and children in reducing pre-operation anxiety. Materials and methods: This was a randomized controlled trial involving 70 parentchild dyads in Hospital Raja Perempuan Zainab II (HRPZ II), Kelantan. Inclusion criteria were child aged 3 to 12 years old who underwent elective surgery. Parents were assigned to intervention and control groups. The former received the information leaflet and the later received standard preparation.. Parents were compared on their anxiety level using Depression Anxiety Stress Scales 21 (DASS-21) (anxiety domain) in the holding area. Children were compared on their emotional state level before induction of anaesthesia using Children’s Emotional Manifestation Scale (CEMS). Results: The number of parents who were anxious was similar in both groups (11 (31%) vs. 7 (21%), p =.34). There were no differences in the children’s anxiety state between interventional and control groups as depicted by the CEMS score (7.5 (6.0-9.75) vs. 8.0 (7.0-15.0), p= .12). Conclusion: Parent-child dyads in HRPZ II did not show improvement in the anxiety level with the inclusion of paediatric anaesthesia information leaflet. Further study is needed with larger number of participants involving other selected tertiary hospitals in Malaysia.

Prácticas Culturales para el Caqui Japonés en Florida
Authors: Sarkhosh Ali , Huff Dustin M. , Andersen Peter C. , Clavijo Herrera Jonathan 
Published: January 2021

Los caquis son considerados como un cultivo relativamente sostenible en Florida, con una calificación de 6 puntos en una escala de 10 para la evaluación de sostenibilidad agrícola. Los caquis tienen un potencial comercial moderado y altas probabilidades de llegar directamente al consumidor. La demanda de los consumidores podría ser de cultivares no astringentes principalmente. Los caquis son aptos para el centro y el norte de Florida, ya que la calidad y los rendimientos pueden ser bajos en la parte sur del estado. Los caquis tienen un bajo requisito de horas frío, y pueden producirse con éxito en áreas que reciben sólo 100-200 horas por debajo de 45°F (7°C). Los datos muestran que las yemas pueden salir de dormancia de mejor manera a temperaturas justo por encima del rango normal de horas frío, entre 32-45°F (0-7°C).
En base a los datos del censo agrícola de 2017 a nivel de condados, está claro que hay dos regiones principales de producción de caqui en Florida. Una región se encuentra en los condados contiguos de Alachua, Levy, Marion y Lake, que representan casi el 50% de la superficie total de caquis cultivados en el estado (132 de 266 acres). La otra región se encuentra al norte del estado, en los condados de Okaloosa, Walton y Washington, que suman alrededor del 18% de la superficie producida. Existen algunos otros condados dispersos que tienen más de 5 acres de caquis cultivados: Brevard (16 acres), Hernando (8 acres), y Jefferson (8 acres).

Advantages and Disadvantages of Using Sutures Vs Cyanoacrylates for Minor Superficial Lacerated Wounds in Healthy Paediatric Age Groups
Authors: Albawwab Asem , Dalloul Radwan A , Abusamra Farouq A. 
Published: January 2021

Aim: This study aims to examine the advantages and disadvantages of using sutures vs cyanoacrylates (surgical glue) for minor superficial lacerated wounds in healthy paediatric age groups.
Methods: Participants of this research fall in the age group of 1 to 16 years. There was no chronic medical condition present in the patients. All the participants had had superficial regular clean forehead (including eyebrows) wounds less than 3 cm. All suturing procedures were performed under subcutaneous local anaesthesia. Proline suture 5-0 was used to suture the wound. Wound closure with surgical adhesive (cyanoacrylates) was completed without any anaesthesia.
Results: A total of 48 patients were part of this study. Feedback by the patients illustrated that all patients who had the procedure of suturing felt the pain during the procedure while among the group treated with surgical glue, some patients reported the feeling of pain or a burning sensation. Infection signs were most evident in the suture-treated group. Wound healing and scar formation periods were slightly higher with suture application when compared with the usage of surgical glue on wounds. Overall, most of the patients were satisfied and comfortable with treatment by the application of surgical glue (cyanoacrylates).
Conclusion: Tissue adhesives are gaining popularity day by day, and currently, critical evaluation of these adhesives is imperative to evaluate their advantages, disadvantages and effectiveness in comparison with present materials and methods.
