Novos temas para Santo Domingo: observações sobre o “Documento de Trabalho”
Authors: Antoniazzi Alberto 
Published: September 2021

Acaba de ser publicado o “Documento de Trabalho” da IV Conferência Geral do Episcopado Latino-Americano, a ser realizada em outubro, em Santo Domingo. O Documento (doravante = DT) retoma muitas das contribuições das Conferências Episcopais, que o CELAM reunira em fevereiro num extenso volume chamado “Secunda Relatio”. Supera significativamente, em conteúdo e abertura pastoral, os documentos anteriores “Elementos para uma reflexão” (fevereiro de 1990) e “Documento de Consulta” (abril de 1991). Está tendo uma acolhida favorável por parte de muitos teólogos e agentes de pastoral. Em suma, parece constituir um progresso significativo rumo a Santo Domingo e reacende a esperança de que o Documento Final expresse os anseios da grande maioria das comunidades eclesiais católicas da América Latina, continuando Medellín e Puebla.
Em artigo recente (cf. Os temas de Santo Domingo, Perspectiva Teológica 24, 1992: 227-236), escrito em março p. p., tive a oportunidade de apresentar algumas reflexões sobre a “Secunda Relatio”, procurando apontar perspectivas por ela não consideradas, especialmente na análise da realidade (o ‘Ver”) e na reflexão teológica (o “julgar”). Minha intenção era indicar alguns temas que Santo Domingo deveria levar em conta, sobretudo se quisesse não simplesmente refletir o estágio atual da Igreja latino-americana, mas apontar perspectivas de futuro.
Retomo aqui algumas dessas observações, para verificar em que medida foram atendidas pelo DT ou poderiam ainda ser consideradas na reflexão que prepara a realização da Conferência e a elaboração do Documento Final.

Published: September 2021

Introduction: Earthquakes, one of the most important natural disasters of the earth, have always caused irreparable damage to human settlements in short time. One of the most important issues that we face after an earthquake is the transfer of earthquake victims and traumatized civilians to safe places and medical centers. The city of Mashhad with different geographical faults and the presence of enormous religious, cultural, historical and industrial assets make Mashhad the most dangerous city in terms of earthquake hazards. In the 9th district of this city, the existence of worn-out structures along the narrow passages and the importance to save time in providing relief proves the need to locate temporary accommodation centers and allocate the injured to safe places.Material and Methods:The process of optimizing the accommodation of people includes 2 main steps 1) Determining candidate locations for temporary accommodation 2) Optimal allocation of population blocks (origin).The weight of criteria was calculated using the pairwise comparison method. Then suitable places for deployment are identified. Criterion in the form of giving a specific weight to each, in order to prepare the final map, is of importance. Accordingly, the opinions of experts in the field of urban crisis management have been utilized. Subsequently, using GAMS software and 7 super-innovative algorithms such as SA, PSO, ICA, ACO, ABC, FA, LAFA.Results:The average process time and cost of 7 algorithms out of ten random problems with 1000 repetitions, and an average of 10 execution times show, that the 3 algorithms ACO, ABC and LAFA have lower cost and process time than the other meta-innovative algorithms. Therefore, we use the above three algorithms to solve the case studyConclusion: Finally, the LAFA optimization algorithm had obtained a better and more appropriate result due to its execution time and cost being less than the other two algorithms.

Published: September 2021

The effect of intravenous administration of two sedatives, diazepam (0.3 mg/kg) and thiopental (6.0 mg/kg), on the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) in man was investigated on 9 volunteers. The VOR was evoked with a velocity step rotation test and gain and time constant of perrotatory and postrotatory nystagmus were measured. Both drugs reduced VOR gain. Diazepam-induced reduction lasted 8 h and thiopental-induced reduction 1 h. A reduction of the VOR time constant was found lasting about 1 h for both drugs, but with a tendency for the thiopental effect to last longer. These findings, not previously described in man, differ from what has been found in macaques and rabbits injected with diazepam. The reduction of gain and time constant were not correlated with the blood concentration of either drug. The present results suggest that in man the VOR gain and time constant are both reduced by different types of sedatives although with different time courses. On the basis of previously shown effect of alertness on the VOR, it is hypothesized that diazepam and thiopental, besides having a specific effect on central nervous system structures important to the VOR, also induce reduction of the VOR through a general sedation of the CNS.
Otolith dysfunction in skew deviation after brain stem lesions

Published: September 2021

We investigated the horizontal and the vertical otolith-ocular reflex induced by off-vertical-axis rotation and subjective visual vertical in 14 patients with skew deviation due to brain stem lesion. Patients were divided into two groups: the group C ([Formula: see text]) with caudal brain stem lesions and the group R ([Formula: see text]) with rostral brain stem lesions as defined by the midpons level. The patient group was compared to a control group of 20 healthy subjects. The otolith-ocular reflex was evoked by constant velocity rotation in yaw plane around an axis tilted at 15 deg with respect to gravity. In group C, the horizontal off-vertical-axis nystagmus bias was negative i.e. anticompensatory to chair rotation, when directed toward the lesioned side. Furthermore, patients of group C were presenting with a significant tilt of subjective visual vertical. In group R, a vertical downward offset was induced predominantly in the hypotropic eye and in the direction of rotation away from the lesion. Finally, in patients of group R, horizontal and vertical modulation was increased for rotation away from the lesion. These results are discussed in terms of 1) asymmetrical horizontal and vertical dynamic otolith signals feeding the velocity storage network after brain stem lesion, 2) possible involvement of cerebellar function in OVAN modulation.
Models of the dynamics of otolithic membrane and hair cell bundle mechanics*
Authors: Kondrachuk Alexander V. 
Published: September 2021

Dynamic behavior of an otolithic membrane (OM) was studied analytically using simplified homogeneous viscoelastic (Kelvin-Voight body) model of the OM. The OM was represented by a thin plate attached to a macular plane. Viscoelastic properties of the OM determine the specific times ( T 1 and T 2 ) and frequency-dependent behavior of the local displacements of the membrane caused by the inertial time-dependent forces. Two kinds of an otolith stimulation were analyzed: step-function and harmonic accelerations of the membrane. Results of the modeling were compared with the known experimental data to estimate the Young’s modulus E and viscosity μ of a gel layer: E is of order of 10 N/m 2 , μ is of order of 1 poise in the range of frequency 0.2–2 Hz. It has allowed us to estimate the values of T 1 ( 10 − 5 – 10 − 6 sec) and T 2 ( ∼ 3 · 10 − 2 sec). A relationship of the motion equation of the OM with well-known overdamped pendulum model of the otolith was discussed. The model of stereocilia tip-links deformation in the case, when the HCBs passively follow gel deformation, was proposed and analyzed. It was shown that for slender and long HCBs with the lengths comparable to a thickness of effective gel layer, a relative deformation of the tip-links of stereocilia caused by OM acceleration depends on time and the distance from the macular plane. The results of the modeling suggest that this type of the HCB may be responsible for analysis of fine temporal (frequency) structure of the OM acceleration.

Published: September 2021

While the stimulation of otolith inputs reduces the duration of postrotatory nystagmus (PRN), there is still room for dialogue about the effect of static tilt on the orientation of PRN. We studied one possible influence of static roll tilt on the spatial orientation of PRN in cats. The animal was rotated about an earth-vertical axis (EVA) at a constant velocity of 100 deg/s with an acceleration and deceleration of 120 deg / s 2 . Within two seconds after stopping EVA rotation, the animal was passively tilted at 45 deg/s about its longitudinal axis by as much as ± 90 deg in steps of 15 deg. Eye movements were measured with magnetic search coils. The angle of the PRN plane and its slow phase eye velocity were measured. The time constant of PRN decreased with an increase in roll tilt. The PRN plane remained earth horizontal within a range of ± 30 deg roll tilt. Beyond this range, the velocity of PRN decreased too rapidly to measure any change in orientation. Our results indicate a spatially limited and temporally short interaction of the semicircular canal and otolith signals in the velocity storage mechanism of cat PRN. Our data, along with previous studies, suggest that different species show different solutions to the problem of the imbalance and spatial disorientation during contradictory stimuli.
Caloric response does not decline with age
Authors: Mallinson A.I. , Longridge N.S. 
Published: September 2021

Complaints of imbalance in the elderly are commonly heard by clinicians, and pathology of the vestibular system may play an important role in these complaints. While there is solid anatomical evidence for age related decline of some vestibular structures, a corresponding deterioration in physiologic function has not been convincingly demonstrated. Vestibular function is traditionally measured with caloric irrigations. Although there has been some age dependent change in caloric response shown, there is no good parallel between caloric response and imbalance in the elderly patient. Our experiment confirms that slow phase velocity of caloric responses does not decline with age. Calorics measure only one part of the vestibular system, and so should not be regarded as representative of balance system function. As a result, measured caloric response does not parallel documented anatomic age-related decline of the vestibular system.
Vestibular coriolis effect differences modeled with three-dimensional linear-angular interactions
Authors: Holly Jan E. 
Published: September 2021

The vestibular coriolis (or "cross-coupling") effect is traditionally explained by cross-coupled angular vectors, which, however, do not explain the differences in perceptual disturbance under different acceleration conditions. For example, during head roll tilt in a rotating chair, the magnitude of perceptual disturbance is affected by a number of factors, including acceleration or deceleration of the chair rotation or a zero-g environment. Therefore, it has been suggested that linear-angular interactions play a role. The present research investigated whether these perceptual differences and others involving linear coriolis accelerations could be explained under one common framework: the laws of motion in three dimensions, which include all linear-angular interactions among all six components of motion (three angular and three linear). The results show that the three-dimensional laws of motion predict the differences in perceptual disturbance. No special properties of the vestibular system or nervous system are required. In addition, simulations were performed with angular, linear, and tilt time constants inserted into the model, giving the same predictions. Three-dimensional graphics were used to highlight the manner in which linear-angular interaction causes perceptual disturbance, and a crucial component is the Stretch Factor, which measures the "unexpected" linear component.
Primary Squamous Cell Carcinoma Thyroid with Regional Recurrence
Authors: Akhbar Nugroho , Benny Issakh  
Published: September 2021

Background. Primary squamous cell carcinoma (PSCC) of the thyroid is a very aggressive malignancy with a poor prognosis. There is no consensus for the management of primary squamous cell carcinoma (PSCC) of the thyroid, and this is based on rare cases in which the frequency of occurrence is less than 1% of thyroid malignancies. How squamous cell carcinoma originates in the thyroid gland is an interesting topic to discuss, because the thyroid gland does not have a squamous cell epithelium.
Case Presentation. A 43-year-old man was admitted to the DR Kariadi Hospital with complaints of a lump on the right neck. In June 2020, the patient complained of a lump in the right neck area with a diameter of about 1x1x1 cm, no pain. Ultrasound of the colli at the regional hospital showed the impression of multiple lymphadenopathy of the right colli level 2-5, and there were cystic nodules with solid parts in the right and left lobes of the thyroid suspected of being benign. An adenectomy operation was performed at a regional hospital and the impression of metastatic squamous undifferentiated carcinoma was obtained.
Conclusion. The management of thyroid PSCC is a multimodality therapy, namely surgery, chemotherapy and radiation.
MEXICAN DEMAND FOR RICE IMPORTS (ORYZA SATIVA L.) DURING NAFTA: EVIDENCE FROM A NARDL MODEL WITH STRUCTURAL CHANGE AND OUTLIERS
Authors: Valencia-Romero Ramón , Martinez-García Miguel A. , Sánchez-Bárcenas Horacio , Ríos-Bolívar Humberto 
Published: September 2021

ABSTRACT
Objective:
This study aimed to determine which model best captures the behaviour of rice imports during the North America Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) regime (1994–2018).
Methodology
Mexican demand for rice imports is estimated with Autoregressive Distributed Lag Model (ARDL) and Nonlinear Autoregressive Distributed Lag Model (NARDL), both with and without structural change and outliers.
Results
It starts with the ARDL and NARDL models, obtaining non-cointegration, as well as diagnosis and specification problems. Subsequently an ARDL model is proposed with structural change and outliers, which represents an improvement but still has specification problems. Finally, the best model is obtained incorporating non-linearity.
Limitations/Implications
It is a study for a specific grain, so the results obtained are only valid for rice imports. Nevertheless, it must be considered that it is a basic grain. Moreover, a new methodology is used to estimate the import demand function.
Findings
There is evidence of an asymmetric response of rice imports to fluctuations in economic activity and the exchange rate in the short run, and only in the long run for the latter. An increase in rice imports with NAFTA is also confirmed, as well as two extraordinary variations of rice imports during the study period.
Keywords
Rice imports; ARDL; NARDL; structural change; outliers

Published: September 2021

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication after acute stroke. Multiple additional risk factors are also responsible for development of AKI during acute stroke. This cross sectional observational study was conducted with a total of 240 newly detected computed tomography (CT) confirmed acute stroke patients in Mymensingh Medical College Hospital with an aim to find out the incidence and risk factors of AKI in acute stroke. In this study, AKI developed in 15.42% of all types of acute stroke and more commonly in haemorrhagic stroke than in ischaemic stroke (23.44% vs. 12.50%, P<0.05). AKI was found more frequently (54.05%) in old >60 years age group and in male patients(17.93% vs. 11.58% & P>0.05). Again, AKI developed most commonly in chronic kidney disease (CKD) (33.33%, P<0.05) and then in diabetes mellitus (DM) (31.03%, P<0.05), in ischaemic heart disease (IHD) (28.11%, P<0.05), in hypertension (21.14%, P<0.05), in previous stroke (15.22%, P>0.05), in dyslipidaemia (13.33%, P>0.05), and in smoker (9.89%, P>0.05). Family history of (H/O) DM was present in 30.00% (P>0.05) and that of hypertension and kidney disease was present in 24.44% (P>0.05) and 25.00% (P>0.05) of stroke patients, respectively. Among the AKI patients, majority (70.27%) had hypertension and 37.84% had CKD, 29.73% had IHD. DM and smoker were 24.32%of each. Family H/O of hypertension, DM and kidney disease was present in 29.73%, 16.22% & 13.51 % of AKI patients, respectively. So, this study had identified several important risk factors of AKI, in particular age, sex, smoking, hypertension, DM, IHD, CKD and types of stroke. So, the risk score could be easily calculated to predict the risk of AKI in stroke patients. And thus to prevent the development of AKI is of utmost importance to reduce the related morbidity and mortality of acute stroke patients. A multicenter nationwide intensive research is needed to identify the precise mechanism, risk factors, their relation and actual outcome of AKI that develop in patients with acute stroke.
