Mediation in the Christian Life
Authors: LeMasters Philip 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
Orthodox theology teaches that people may participate in the fruits of Jesus Christ’s mediation between God and humankind. The Holy Spirit enables people to become radiant with the divine energies as they embrace Christ’s fulfillment of the human person in the likeness of God. The Theotokos, the saints, and spiritual elders play particular roles in interceding for people to share more fully in the life of Christ. The eucharistic worship of the church, marriage and the other sacraments, the prayer of the heart, ministry to the poor, and forgiveness of enemies provide opportunities for people to be transformed by the grace mediated to humanity by Jesus Christ. Such mediation extends to every dimension of the human person, including the physical body, as indicated by veneration of the relics of the saints and the sacramental nature of Orthodox worship.

Inward Groans and Unknown Tongues
Authors: Stone Jesse D. 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
The following article examines the reception of Rom. 8.26 in early North American Pentecostal literature. The author will review the variety of perspectives offered on the passage from various early Pentecostal publications, noting how their reception betrayed an intuitive grasp of key interpretative questions that continue to dominate scholarly work on Paul’s unique claims about pneumatic intercession. While many early Pentecostals interpreted Rom. 8.26 as another reference to glossolalic prayer, not all did. Nevertheless, the interpretative connections made by early Pentecostals reveal a dynamic hermeneutical practice that integrated lived pneumatic experiences with close intertextual readings of Scripture in response to important interpretative issues.
The Spirit and the Common Good
Authors: Macchia Frank D. 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
Some books stand out as noteworthy for their insights, relevance, and aesthetic appeal. A reader will always refer back to them as among their favorites. Daniela Augustine’s, The Spirit and the Common Good, is such a book for the present author. This is a book that one will want to do more than simply read, but also think out loud in conversation with. Thus, the author would like to converse with Augustine’s discussion so as to explore its theological basis and direction. Though hers is not a work in constructive theology, there is a rich theological vision that she draws upon to confront issues of public justice and compassion. Her theological explanations are usually brief, but often quite provocative. The author wishes to explore her theological vision and probe it for further insight.
Female Prophetic Traditions in the Old Testament
Authors: Grey Jacqueline 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
This article explores the tradition of female prophets in the Old Testament utilizing Isaiah’s woman (Isa. 8.1-4) as a case study. First, it discusses the general evidence for a female prophetic tradition in the Old Testament, locating it in the broader ancient Near East context. It then focuses on examples of women prophets within the Old Testament to demonstrate the role of female prophets in shaping national life and politics despite the gender limitations of women in ancient Israelite society. Following this broader discussion, a case study of Isaiah’s wife is presented to explore her function and role as a prophet. In particular, the role of hannevi’ah as a possible mother within the prophetic guild is examined. Finally, the implications for the Pentecostal community are considered, focusing on retrieving the role of prophetic mothers to function alongside prophetic fathers.
Bemerkungen zu Gl. 2,703,40 ‹sichinzUGU› und weiteren, auch neugefundenen Glossen in Paris, BnF lat. 9344
Authors: Schuhmann Roland , Nievergelt Andreas 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
In the dictionaries of Old High German an entry snichezzunga f. ‘sob’ is listed. It is shown here that the manuscript reading rather points to sichizunga that has a parallel in OE sicettung f. ‘sigh, sob’ and is a derivation from the root PGmc. *sei̯ke/a- ‘to sigh, sob’. In a supplement, improved readings of five glosses in the manuscript Paris, BnF lat. 9344, are given, as well as an edition of four new glosses and some reflections on a still unexplained marginal entry.

Objective: Cognition influences hospitalization rates for a variety of patient groups but this association has not been examined in heart failure (HF) patients undergoing left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation. We used cognition to predict days-alive-out-of-hospital (DAOH) in patients after LVAD surgery. Methods: We retrospectively identified 59 HF patients with cognitive assessment prior to LVAD. Cognitive tests of attention, memory, language, and visual motor speed were averaged into one score. DAOH was converted to a percentage based on total days from LVAD surgery to either heart transplant or 900 days post-LVAD. Variables significantly associated with DAOH in univariate analyses were included in a linear regression model to predict DAOH. Results: A linear regression model including LVAD type (continuous or pulsatile flow) and cognition significantly predicted DAOH (F(2,54) = 6.44, p = 0.003, R2 = .19). Inspection of each variable revealed that cognition was a significant predictor in the model (β = .11, SE = .04, p = 0.007) but LVAD type was not ( p = 0.08). Conclusions: Cognitive performance assessed prior to LVAD implantation predicted how much time patients spent out of the hospital following surgery. Further studies are warranted to identify the impact of pre-LVAD cognition on post-LVAD hospitalization.
Large congenital bladder diverticula in children
Authors: Uçan Ayşe Başak , Şencan Arzu 
Published: May 2021

Objective: Large congenital bladder diverticula (LCBD), congenital bladder diverticula (CBD) larger than 2 cm diameter, is a rare anomaly. The aim of this study was to report long-term surgical and clinical outcomes of children with LCBD. Methods: Medical charts of all children who were diagnosed with LCBD at our institution between April 2005 and December 2017, with at least 2 year follow-up were retrospectively reviewed. Patients’ demographics, symptoms, operative technique, diverticulum size and localization, surgical outcomes and complications were recorded. Results: Fourteen patients with 18 LCBD, all male and age between 7 and 240 months (mean age: 53.5 months) were included in the study. Urinary tract infection was the main complaint in 10. Vesicoureteral reflux was detected in eight patients. Diverticula were 2–5.5 cm (mean 3.3 cm) in size. All diverticulectomies were performed transvesically and ureteroneocystostomy was added in 12 patients, 5 of whom were bilateral. No postoperative infection or recurrent reflux were observed. The median follow-up period was 4.5 years (2–12 years). Conclusion: Treatment of LCBD is mostly surgical and transvesical approach for diverticulectomy was found to be a safe and effective surgical procedure in long term follow-up.
The Falling Rate of Profit under Constant Rate of Exploitation: A Generalization
Authors: Liang Junshang 
Published: May 2021

In a two-sector model with circulating capital, Laibman (1982) shows that a capital-using and labor-saving technical change in the consumption goods sector lowers the rate of profit under the assumption of constant rate of exploitation. This paper generalizes his finding in a two-department multi-sector model that considers the capital advanced. JEL Classification: B51, C67
Barriers to Palliative Care Referral and Advance Care Planning (ACP) for Patients With COPD: A Cross-Sectional Survey of Palliative Care Nurses
Authors: Disler Rebecca , Pascoe Amy , Luckett Tim , Donesky Doranne , Irving Louis , Currow David C. , Smallwood Natasha 
Published: May 2021

Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a progressive, life-limiting illness that requires end-of-life care planning, yet remains under-served. Understanding barriers to advance care planning (ACP) from different specialties’ perspectives will enable a co-ordinated, cross-disciplinary approach to improving ACP access. Methods: Australia and New Zealand palliative care nurses were invited to complete an anonymous online cross-sectional survey. Questions tested knowledge of validated ACP-related practice indicators and canvassed perspectives on barriers to ACP in COPD. Data are described and free-text thematically analyzed. Results: The 90 participants had high knowledge and positive attitudes to ACP in COPD, however, lacked consensus as to whether patients want to know their prognosis or discuss treatment options and end-of-life wishes. 59% discussed ACP in more than half their patients with COPD, and 77% and 73% routinely initiated or followed-up these discussions. Key barriers included: lack of confidence and training in COPD; reluctance to distress patients and families; referral late in the disease course; lack of consensus on referral timing; and lack of patient and clinician understanding of COPD prognoses. Many reported that lack of consensus in the treating team, paired with prognostic uncertainty, precluded timely ACP engagement. Conclusions: Palliative care nurses have substantial knowledge and positive beliefs regarding ACP, however, some beliefs and practices lack alignment with qualitative data on patients’ wishes in COPD. While palliative care nurses are well placed to facilitate early implementation for patients with advanced COPD, ACP training and practice guidelines specific to COPD may increase implementation in this life-limiting disease.
Adjuvant pembrolizumab in genomically selected high-risk patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer
Authors: Mar Nataliya , Kalebasty Arash Rezazadeh 
Published: May 2021

Introduction Patients with muscle-invasive urothelial bladder cancer post neoadjuvant cisplatin-based chemotherapy with pathologic advanced disease (ypT3, ypT4, ypN+) at radical cystectomy have a significantly worse five-year overall survival. There is currently no preferred adjuvant therapy to reduce risk of cancer recurrence in this high-risk patient cohort and surveillance remains the standard-of-care. Case report We present a case series of two patients who received cisplatin-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy and had pathologic node-positive urothelial carcinoma at the time of radical cystectomy. Tumor next generation sequencing revealed high mutational burden in both patients and positive PD-L1 in one patient. Management and outcome: Patients were treated with adjuvant pembrolizumab and experienced long-term disease free intervals. Discussion Use of adjuvant checkpoint inhibitors in patients post neoadjuvant cisplatin-based chemotherapy with pathologic advanced disease at the time of radical cystectomy at high-risk of cancer recurrence sounds appealing. Careful patient selection based on tumor-specific genomic alterations may be key. Large trials addressing this question are ongoing.
Determination of bisphenol A in commercial cat food marketed in the Czech Republic
Authors: Maršálek Petr , Kovaříková Simona , Lueerssen Friedrich , Večerek Vladimír 
Published: May 2021

Objectives Bisphenol A (BPA) is one of the most widely used synthetic compounds on the planet. It is used in the synthesis of polycarbonate plastics, epoxy resins and other polymer materials. Owing to its excellent chemical and physical properties, it is used to produce food and beverage containers or the linings for metal products. BPA has been mentioned as a possible cause of feline hyperthyroidism. Cat food is considered one of the main sources of BPA intake. The purpose of this study was to evaluate BPA concentration in various types of commercial cat food available in the Czech Republic. Methods In total, 172 samples prepared from 86 different types of commercial cat food were assessed. The concentration of BPA was measured using liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry. Results Measurable concentration of BPA was found in all samples (range 0.065–131 ng/g), with the highest concentration (mean ± SD) of BPA in canned food (24.6 ± 34.8 ng/g). When comparing BPA concentration in food trays (1.58 ± 0.974 ng/g), pouches (0.591 ± 0.592 ng/g) and dry food (1.18 ± 0.518 ng/g), concentrations of BPA in food trays and dry food were significantly higher ( P <0.01) compared with pouches. Comparing BPA concentrations in canned food of different manufacturers, statistically significant differences were found as well. Conclusions and relevance The highest concentrations of BPA were found in cans. Thus, cans represent the highest possibility of exposure to BPA in comparison with other types of commercial feline food.

Published: May 2021

Purpose: To report the first case of an atypical infectious keratitis caused by Streptococcus vestibularis after ICRS implantation. Case report: A 65-year-old man underwent intracorneal ring segments (ICRS) implantation for the treatment of a pellucid marginal corneal degeneration (PMCD) in his both eyes (OU). Three weeks after the surgery of the right eye (OD), the patient presented with pain, redness, and vision loss in his OD. BCVA was 20/100 Snellen equivalent in the OD. Slit-lamp examination revealed punctate whitish infiltrates along the ring segment with associated corneal stromal edema in the OD. Corneal scrapings were obtained for gram satins and bacterial and fungal cultures, and topical treatment with hourly ciprofloxacin was started. Two days later, corneal stromal edema worsened with involvement of the ring channel. Thus, the ring segment was removed and sent for cultures, and the ring channel was irrigated with vancomycin. Culture from ring segment came back positive for Streptococcus vestibularis, so topical targeted antiobiotherapy with vancomycin and erythromycin was applied. At 3 weeks of follow-up, BCVA was of 20/40 Snellen equivalent in the OD and a subtle corneal leucoma in the OD was observed in the slit-lamp examination. Conclusion: Although infectious keratitis is a rare and serious disorder associated with ICRS implantation, its early recognition and management is essential in order to avoid sight-threatening complications. Thus, a prompt obtainment of corneal curettage samples and removal of ring segment becomes decisive to initiate a targeted antiobiotherapy.
Sensitivity of T1/T2-weighted ratio in detection of cortical demyelination is similar to magnetization transfer ratio using post-mortem MRI

Published: May 2021

Background: Detecting cortical demyelination using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in multiple sclerosis (MS) remains a challenge. Magnetization transfer ratio (MTR), T1-weighted/T2-weighted ratio (T1T2R), and T2-weighted (T2w) signal are sensitive to cortical demyelination, but their accuracy is unknown. Objectives: To quantify the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of postmortem T1T2R, MTR, and T2w in detecting cortical demyelination. Methods: In situ postmortem MRIs from 9 patients were used to measure T1T2R, MTR, and T2w along the midline of cortical gray matter and classified as normal or abnormal. MRIs were co-registered and compared to hemispheric myelin staining. The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of T1T2R, MTR, and T2w in detecting cortical demyelination were measured. Results: The mean age (standard deviation) at death was 64.7 (+/-13.7) years with a disease duration of 23.8 (+/-10.5) years. The sensitivity was 78% for MTR, 75% for T1T2R, and 63% for T2w. The specificity was 46% (T2w), 13% (T1T2R), and 29% (MTR). The accuracy was 71% (T2w), 39% (MTR), and 42% (T1T2R). There were no significant differences between different MRI measures in cortical demyelination or intracortical/subpial lesion detection. Conclusions: Although somewhat sensitive, the modest specificity of conventional MRI modalities for cortical demyelination indicates that they are influenced by cortical changes other than demyelination. Improved acquisition and post-processing are needed to reliably measure cortical lesion load.
On the biopolitics of humane drug policies: What can we learn from 19th century sobriety boards?
Authors: Johansen Kenneth Arctander , Vandenbroeck Michel , Vandevelde Stijn 
Published: May 2021

Background: In accordance with recommendations from The United Nations’ Chief Executives Board of Coordination, several countries are in the process of reforming their punitive drug policies towards health-based approaches – from punishment to help. The Portuguese model of decriminalisation is generally seen as a good model for other countries and has been scientifically described in favourable terms, and not much scrutinised. Method: This article draws on foucauldian archaeological and genealogical approaches in order to understand and compare governance logics of the 19th century Norwegian sobriety boards and 21st century Portuguese commissions. In doing this, we problematize contemporary drug policy reform discussions that point to the “Portuguese model”, which aims to stop punishing and start helping drug-dependent people, are problematised. Findings: The Portuguese commissions investigate whether drug-using people are dependent or not. Dependency, circumstances of consumption and their economy are considered when the commission decides on penalising, assisting, or treating the person, or a combination of all this. This model was studied alongside the Norwegian sobriety boards mandated by the Sobriety Act that was implemented in 1932. Sobriety boards governed poor alcoholics. Authorities from the sobriety movement were central in creating sobriety policies that culminated in sobriety boards. The Portuguese commissions have similarities to Norwegian sobriety boards. They make use of sanctions and treatment to govern people who use illicit substances to make them abstain, with the view that this is emancipatory for these people. The different apparatuses have distinct and different ways of making up, and governing their subjects. Conclusion: This article contributes to debates on drug policy reforms and aims to investigate whether they might produce biopower effects of governance masked by an emancipatory language. There is a need for critical studies on drug policy reforms to avoid policies that maintain divisions and control marginalised populations.
In vivo measurement of distal radioulnar translation following distal radius fracture
Authors: Giddins Grey E. B. , Pickering Greg T. 
Published: May 2021

The incidence of distal radioulnar joint instability following a distal radius fracture is estimated around one in three based upon clinical examination. Using a validated rig, we objectively measured distal radioulnar joint translation in vivo following distal radius fracture. Dorsopalmar translation of the distal radioulnar joint was measured in 50 adults with previous distal radius fractures. Measurements were compared with the uninjured wrist and against a database of previous measurements within healthy and clinically lax populations. Translation at the distal radioulnar joint was greater in injured wrists at 12.2 mm (range 10–15, SD 1.2) than the uninjured wrists at 6.4 (range 4–9, SD 0.8) ( p < 0.001) and was always outside the established normal range. There was no statistically significant link between translation and the severity of the injury. Instability appears almost inevitable following a distal radius (wrist) fracture, albeit subclinical in the vast majority.

Published: May 2021

Objective Jinhua Qinggan Granules (JQGs) have achieved certain results in the prevention and treatment of COVID-19 in China during this coronavirus storm. In this study, we aimed to analyze the common mechanisms of JQG in the treatment of coronavirus-induced diseases, such as severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS), and COVID-19 via network pharmacology and molecular docking. Methods The active compounds of JQG were collected through Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform. The common targets associated with these 3 diseases were screened from GeneCards database. Gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis of JQG’s core targets were analyzed using The Database for Annotation, Visualization, and Integrated Discovery and KOBAS 3.0 system. Further, the protein-protein interaction network was built using STRING database. The compound-target- signaling pathway network was constructed using Cytoscape 3.7.2. The core components of JQG were docked with core targets, COVID-19 coronavirus 3 Cl hydrolase, and angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) via Discovery Studio 2016 software. Results A total of 139 active compounds, 50 core targets, and 122 signaling pathways were screened out. The results of molecular docking showed that arctiin and linarin had a higher docking score with 3 Cl, ACE2, and core targets of JQH for antiviral effect. Conclusion The potential mechanism of action of JHQ in the treatment of MERS, SARS, and COVID-19 may be associated with the regulation of genes co-expressed with ACE2 and immune- related signaling pathways.
