Published: April 2021

In the industrialized world, increasing productivity and profitability is very important for companies as a benchmark of success in business processes. Some literature has defined the success factor of the successful application of the concept of TPM as a tool to improve the productivity performance of the company, therefore improving the productivity performance of the company becomes the main thing in improving long-term sustainable profitability for the company .
In the manufacturing industry pulp and paper mills, the contribution of the highest production costs is in raw materials (Pulp and chemical raw materials), followed by energy and packaging. The energy sector occupies the top three in the cost contributor to variable costs, it is triggered because in the pulp paper industry sector, the consumption value for electrical energy and heat is very high. Therefore, success in eliminating eight major losses is a major success factor in improving the profitability of the company.
To analyze the effects of elimination of eight major losses, reduction of production costs and increase in profitability can be solved by evaluating the influence of all indicators of eight major losses using PLS-SEM. The data used is operational data co-generation plant production of PT. XYZ in 2019.
From the research conducted it is known that the variable Overall Plant Effectiveness (OPE) is significantly influenced by 2 (two) of the 3 (three) constituent indicators, namely Availability and Performance, both indicators affect: Productivity Improvement, Decreased Production Costs and Increased Profitability of the Company. The priority of improvement that must be done by considering the production cost performance data from the review of variable costs of energy is elimination: Loss Shutdown losses (A1), Loss Production adjustment loss (A2), Equipment failure (A3), Process failure ( A4), Normal Production (A5), and abnormal production (A6).

Aim Activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, decreased nitric oxide production, chronic inflammation, and oxidative stress result in subclinical changes in the arterial wall, which favor the development of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). The effect of allelic gene variants that encode the proteins participating in pathogenetic pathways of age-associated diseases with subclinical changes in the arterial wall [increased pulse wave velocity (PWV), increased intima-media thickness, endothelial dysfunction (ED), presence of atherosclerotic plaques (ASP)] are understudied. This study analyzed the relationship between AGT, ACE, NOS3 TNF, MMP9, and CYBA gene polymorphism and the presence of subclinical changes in the arterial wall, including the dependence on risk factors for CVD, in arbitrarily healthy people of various age.Material and methods The relationship of polymorphisms с.521С>Т of AGT gene, Ins>Del of AСE gene, с.894G>T of NOS3 gene, – 238G>A of TNF gene, – 1562С>T of MMP9 gene, and c.214Т>С of CYBA gene with indexes of changes in the arterial wall and risk factors for CVD was studied in 160 arbitrarily healthy people by building models of multiple logistic regression and also by analyzing frequencies of co-emergence of two signs with the Pearson chi-squared test (χ2) and Fisher exact test.Results The DD-genotype of Ins>Del ACE gene polymorphism was correlated with increased PWV (p=0.006; odds ratio (OR) =3.41, 95 % confidence interval (CI): 1.48–8.67) and ED (p=0.014; OR=2.60, 95 % CI: 1.22–5.68). The GG genotype of с.894G>T NOS3 gene polymorphism was correlated with ED (p=0.0087; OR=2.65, 95 % CI: 1.26–5.72); the ТТ-genotype of с.894G>T NOS3 gene polymorphism was correlated with ASP (p=0.033; OR=0.034, 95 % CI: 0.001–0.549).Conclusion Polymorphic variants of AСE and NOS3 genes correlated with ED, increased arterial wall stiffness, and the presence of subclinical changes in the arterial wall.

Aim. Study of a group of biochemical parameters of the hepatopancreas and gills of the Black Sea mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis Lam. and the functional indicator of cardiac system adaptivity of mussels from Sevastopol bays with different levels of recreational and anthropogenic impact.Methods. Mussels were collected from four Sevastopol water areas (Kruglaya Bay, Kazachya Bay, Matyushenko Bay and Cape Khrustalnii) in autumn 2018. The bioindication methods used were based on application of functional (cardiac system adaptability) and biochemical indicators (antioxidant enzymes activity [AEA], aminotransferases, the alkaline phosphatase [AP], and products of the lipid peroxidation [LPO] and protein oxidation [PO]) of mussel tissues. The hydrochemical parameters of the investigated areas were determined.Results. The anthropogenic impact on a complex of biochemical indicators of mussels at the sampling sites was shown. At the same time, low values of mussel heart rate (HR) recovery time (Trec) (less than 60 min.) in all sampling sites demonstrated the efficiency of biochemical changes in mussels and the possible use of all tested bays as recreational areas.Conclusion. Results of the present research allow the characterization of the ecological status of these Sevastopol sea water areas and to make recommendations about their rational use. Matyushenko and Kazachya Bays are most suitable for beach recreation and recreational fishery. Kazachya Bay also has favourable conditions for the development of water sports. Kruglaya Bay and Cape Khrustalnii are less ecologically safe and require a series of actions to improve water quality.

Aim.To analyse the patterns of ascorbic acid content in the green mass of Galega orientalis (Galega orientalis Lam.), Gale variety, cultivated under introductory conditions to develop an effective method for increasing feed production.Material and Methods. The influence of the following factors on the accumulation of ascorbic acid in plants was considered: pre‐sowing seed preparation, the presence of a cover crop (pea), cultivation conditions, meteorological factors and the biological age of the grass stand over a three‐year period.Results. It was established that the plant mass of Galega orientalis is a source of ascorbic acid after plants enter the generative phase of development with predominant localization of vitamins in the leaves (96%). Patterns were revealed of ascorbic acid accumulation in the green phytomass of Galega orientalis depending on average daily temperature during the vegetation period (r = ‐0.69) and specific leaf surface (r = ‐0.83‐0.88). Conclusion. The data obtained also indicate a statistically significant positive effect of using Baikal‐EM1 microbiological fertilizer for seed inoculation during preparation for sowing, and a negative effect of the cover crop on the accumulation of ascorbic acid in the plant mass of Galega orientalis in its virginal and generative periods of development.

Aim. The article aims to study the dynamics of greenhouse gas emissions as they depend on the type and structure of economic activity in the Russian Federation (RF); to identify the impact of the pandemic and its consequences on the energy sector development and to justify the need to switch to renewable energy to ensure the sustainable economic development of Russia.Materials and Methods. In the process of conducting this study, statistical methods of analysis, system analysis method and the comparative method of analysis were used.Results. The results of the study have confirmed the need to switch to renewable energy in order to ensure the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions into the environment (each unit of energy generated by RES will reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 50‐200 %). The reason is that the economy sector accounts for almost 79% of such emissions, which makes the transition to renewable energy relevant to ensuring the sustainable economic development of Russia.Conclusion. Achievement of the internationally recognized Sustainable Development Goals, in particular Goal 7 «Ensuring Access to Affordable, Reliable, Sustainable and Modern Energy Sources for All» in the context of a pandemic and its consequences necessitates energy sector reform. This could be achieved by increasing the share of renewable energy in order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions into the environment and, accordingly, to prevent further climate change, one of the main causes of not only environmental but also of economic damage.

Published: April 2021

Background and Purpose: Aspergillus species are implicated as the etiology of approximately 26% of endocarditis cases. Central nervous system aspergillosis is a life-threatening condition that has a mortality rate of 80%.
Case report: Herein, we report a four– year- old female who was admitted to the pediatric infectious ward due to a fever of unknown origin in January 2020. She was a known case of Marfan syndrome with a family history of this syndrome in her mother. The species was identified using (PCR) and the antifungal susceptibility test was performed using four antifungal agents based on the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute M38 3rd edition. Fluconazole-resistant Aspergillus flavus was identified to be responsible for endocarditis and meningitis as well as fever of unknown origin.
Conclusion: The clinicians should be aware and consider fungal endocarditis in blood culture-negative endocarditis even in patients with no significant risk factor when antibiotic therapy fails.

Published: April 2021

O presente artigo analisa a acurácia vertical dos Modelos Digitais de Elevação (MDEs) TanDEM‑X (TDX) e o Reference Elevation Model for Antarctica ‑ REMA2 e REMA8 ‑ e seu potencial no mapeamento de ambientes glaciais e periglaciais utilizando como estudo de caso a Península Keller (PK), localizada na Ilha Rei George (IRG), Antártica Marítima. A acurácia vertical dos modelos foi avaliada a partir de um MDE gerado por Fotogrametria, por meio do cálculo da Raiz do Erro Quadrático Médio (doravante denominado como RMSE) para toda a área da Península e para três classes de superfície: área livre de gelo, lagos e geleiras. Para a análise estatística também foi realizado o cálculo do coeficiente de correlação linear de Pearson (R) e da matriz de erro a partir dos valores de RMSE. O potencial dos MDEs para a análise geomorfológica foi avaliado com a aplicação do método Geomorphons para classificação automática de elementos do relevo glacial. Com um RMSE de 9,85 metros (m), o REMA8 apresentou melhores resultados. O TDX subestima as elevações em geral e o REMA2 superestima as maiores elevações. O TDX possui melhores valores de RMSE para as áreas livres de gelo (de 10,4 m) quando se desconsidera a classe de cobertura lacustre. Os 3 modelos apresentaram alto coeficiente de correlação. A classificação por Geomorphons, a partir do REMA2, mostrou melhores resultados no mapeamento de formas de relevo localizadas no ambiente paraglacial, identificando morainas, escarpas e terraços. As macroformas de erosão glacial chamadas arêtes foram melhores identificadas na classificação dos dados do REMA8 e do TDX. O REMA8 permitiu a classificação das feições de praias elevadas em quase toda a extensão costeira da Península e recomenda-se o seu uso para a identificação de paleoníveis de linha de costa. A maior acurácia vertical auxilia na melhor identificação das formas de relevo glaciais. As diferenças de acurácia vertical entre os MDEs foram influenciadas pelas características superficiais do terreno e a configuração dos elementos do relevo.

Cytokine production by cell-effectors of natural cytotoxicity system under Lewis lung carcinoma development in F1(CBAxC57B1/6) line mice has been studied. It has been revealed the increase of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) production and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) by peritoneal macrophages. At this the balance of cytokines produced by T-helpers (Th) has been displaced to Th2 side, IL-4 production has increased and interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and IL-2 production has decreased. The rise of IL-10 production by lymphocytes has been observed in the later terms of tumor development.
The using of neuronavigation in vestibular schwannoma surgery
Authors: Yrysov K. B. 
Published: April 2021

We described the experience of a microscope-based navigational system for opening of the posterior wall of the internal auditory canal (IAC) via the retrosigmoid route. Computed tomographic findings for 47 acoustic neuroma cases were divided into three groups, on the basis of the relationship between the labyrinth and the sigmoid-fundus line (medial,on the line,or lateral). The shortest distances between the most medial labyrinthine extension (MMLE) and the resection line were measured. In 20 acoustic neuroma operations, the different features and the practicality of the microscope-based navigational system for opening of the IAC were evaluated.The mean anatomic localization errors were (0,67 ± 0,2) mm for navigation to the IAC and (0,71 ± 0,37) mm for navigation to the posterior semicircular canal. The average distances between the MMLE and the resection line were 3,65; 3,36, and 2,0 mm for the lateral, on-the-line, and medial groups, respectively. Direct contouring of structures at risk does not take into account the localization error, nor does it provide reliable navigational information. A novel indirect contouring concept that takes into account the localization error (the safety corridor method) was therefore introduced.

Online transportation shall provide a security, comfort and safety guarantee for <br />service users, however it is not performed in the application. Service users still have<br />not guaranteed their rights as consumers. In the case the consumer suffers a loss, it<br />is remain undetermined how compensation may be granted, therefore it demands<br />an equal legal protection. Facing this condition, Law Number 8 of 1999 on The<br />Consumer Protection has not yet stipulated slear provision regarding this matter,<br />likewise the online transportation service users and service providers are only bound<br />in limited aspects. The research method of this reasearch is normative legal research<br />only focusing on the issues raised, discussed and elaborated with applying the rules<br />or norms in positive law, using Statutory Approaches and Conceptual Approaches,<br />with primary and secondary legal materials. The data collection technique used is<br />literature study. The analysis technique used is the deductive method. The results<br />showed that there was an legal relationship between service users and online<br />transportation service providers. Consumers have the right to get protection in the<br />form of responsibility for information, legal responsibility for services provided<br />and responsibility for security and comfort. However, for the losses suffered, legal<br />protection for losses incurred by passengers in online transportation mode is still poor<br />due to lack of regulations and the undetermined standard regulations specifically in<br />regulating online transportation modes.

Published: April 2021

<p>This research aims to identify the contribution of <em>fatwa</em> (Islamic instructions of rules) from DSN-MUI in developing the theories and practices of the Islamic economics in Indonesia. The research method used is qualitative, which consists of 116 <em>fatwa</em> DSN-MUI as the main subjects of study. The collected data had been analyzed using content analysis method by creating inimitable and valid data inferences related to its context. The results show that DSN-MUI is the only institution mandated by the law to establish <em>fatwa</em> on Islamic economics and finance, and to provide the provisions of Islamic law toward the Islamic financial institutions in carrying out their activities. Since its establishment in 1998, the roles of DSN-MUI are enormous in laying the foundations of the development of Islamic economics in Indonesia. Until the end of 2017, DSN-MUI has issued 116 <em>fatwa</em> on Islamic economics and finances. Even, DSN-MUI has a very important and strategic role in developing and applying sharia values in the economic field. MUI's important and strategic roles are shown from its position as a pioneer in socialization, internalization, and triggering the Islamic economic growth in Indonesia.</p><p> </p>
Closed Reduction Percutaneous Pinning Management of a Cuboid Fracture-Dislocation in a 70-Year-Old Man
Authors: Reyes Angel M. , Yellin Joseph , von Keudell Arvind 
Published: April 2021

Case:
A 70-year-old man sustained a traumatic injury to his right foot after falling from a 3-foot height. Imaging demonstrated a cuboid fracture with inferomedial dislocation and associated nondisplaced midfoot fractures. Treatment consisted of closed reduction and percutaneous pinning (CRPP) using Kirschner wire fixation. His postoperative recovery was uneventful with full return to activities.

Conclusion:
Cuboid fracture-dislocations are exceedingly rare, and subsequently, there is a paucity of treatment recommendations in the literature. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported successful closed reduction with percutaneous pinning for a cuboid fracture with associated dislocation. CRPP is a potential treatment option for this injury.

Published: April 2021

Case:
We describe a case of mild lead poisoning in a 25-year-old woman because of intra-articular migration of lead shot 12 years after gunshot injury to the left hip, ameliorated by arthroscopic foreign body removal. Retained lead can cause systemic symptoms of lead toxicity, supranormal blood lead concentration, and increasingly painful and destructive local arthritis even years after gunshot injury.

Conclusion:
This report shows that lead fragments should be monitored closely if located near joint spaces. We demonstrate curative therapy for lead poisoning through the use of minimally invasive arthroscopic techniques for removal of retained intra-articular lead missiles.
