IMPACT OF ENVIRONMENTAL NOISE ON INDIVIDUAL HEARING PROBLEMS. A CRITICAL LITERATURE REVIEW
Authors: OLUBWA JAMES 
Published: September 2021

Purpose: A normal person cannot perceive sound to its minimum level of 0 dB or the sound of rustling leaves. Persons with excellent hearing capabilities can receive sound levels as low as 15 dB. On the higher end, sound levels that exceed 85 dB can cause damage as bad as permanent hearing damage. The period spent around loud sound determines the extent of damage that will occur. The calmer the sound, the longer one can withstand it without any alarming effect. The general objective of the study was to access the impact of environmental noise on individual hearing problems. A critical literature review
Methodology: The paper used a desk study review methodology where relevant empirical literature was reviewed to identify main themes and to extract knowledge gaps.
Findings: The study concludes that safety practices that can assist in preventing hearing losses and other harmful effects call for personal, physician, and administrative engagement. Administratively, employers have an obligation to provide safety devices that prevent hearing loss or impairment. Employers should provide personal protective equipment to abate noise levels and that employers should give all employees an opportunity select hearing protectors that vary from entire head enclosures, canal caps, earplugs, to ear mugs.
Recommendations: The study suggested that that personal hearing protective devices use should be enforced through education and inbuilt administrative mechanisms. Only consistent long term use of prevention produces positive impact. It is also recommended that utilization of safety strategies like shift rotations, leave scheduling, acoustic sound proofing of offices, quiet machinery and other strategies be enhanced through deliberate administrative effort.

Published: September 2021

Objective. Traumatic complete and partial finger amputations are rare in comparison with adults. There are significant differences between mechanism of trauma, principles of treatment children with this type of injury in comparison with adults.Clinical case. A 15-years old child suffered from injury by axe, which caused the traumatic fingertip amputation of III and IV digits of his right hand. Replantation of both amputated parts was performed. Arteries and nerves were repaired with no veins anastomosed. As a result - survival of replanted parts.Discussion. A submillimeter diameter of vessels and potential venous congestion are basic problems that a surgeon deal with when perform the replantation of fingertips. Respectively, a difficulty in post-operative care of patient appears.Conclusion. Replantation of amputated part of finger is a golden standard of treatment of children with a described type of injury. The correct deliverance of amputated parts, the shortest time of ischemia as possible, a qualitive operation and post-operative care play an important role in successful survival of the replanted segments.

Published: September 2021

At the current stage of reconstructive surgery development, perforator flaps have confidently taken a priority place when choosing a method for wound defects cover. However, wounds with significant volume defects of both soft tissues and the bone skeleton remain especially difficult challenges for the surgeon. The desired result of such defects repair could be a technique that allows surgeons to carry out an effective reconstruction in one step.The paper describes in detail the surgical and vascular anatomy, design, preoperative preparation and surgical technique for the mobilization of the free vascularized fibula perforator flap containing a fragment of the bone di-aphysis. Clinical examples of orthoplastic reconstruction in different locations are presented.The authors conclude that free fibula flap allows effective one-stage reconstruction of extensive wounds after trauma or oncological resections, including extensive defects of the skeleton, without significant loss of support function in the donor area. A chimera-style composite flap, which contains soft tissues and a fragment of the fibula, can already be called as a “workhorse" for orthoplastic reconstruction on the lower extremities and in the field of maxillofacial surgery.

Purpose of the study. To investigate the efficacy of focal destruction tissues of local liver diseases, chole- and hemostasis of created endoscopic cryoapplicator in operations on the liver and gallbladder.Material and methods. Review the results of surgical treatment of 121 patients with various diseases of the liver (tumors, alveococcosis, parasitic and non-parasitic cysts) and gallbladder (chronic and acute cholecystitis) using a new endoscopic porous TiNi cryoapplicator. 49 patients were operated by an open method, 72 - laparoscopically. Hemo-and cholestatic control of the instrument was performed intraoperative and in postoperative period - by clinical condition of patient and by ultrasonography. Efficiency of destruction of focal liver diseases was investigated by histological examinations of surgical materials, is confirmed by the absence of relapses in the period from 4 to 6 years.The results. Cryoapplicator is simple in use, in sterilization, no energy consumption, can be used both in open surgery, particularly in arduous regions of the liver and laparoscopic procedures and, most importantly, patients with artificial cardiac pacemakers.Cryodestruction of the liver stump after its resection and the bed of the gallbladder after cholecystectomy reduces blood loss by 30-40%, and also helps to reduce the number of relapses of the disease. There were not observed bleeding and bile leakage in postoperative period. Histological examination proved picture of avascular necrosis, a violation of tissue structure of subjected to destruction liver focal diseases, death of epithelial lining of non-parasitic cysts and membranes of echinococcal cysts. There were not diseases recurrences in the period from 4 to 6 years.Conclusion. Endoscopic porous TiNi cryoapplicator is simple and convenient in use, it has a good hemo- and cholestatic effects, pronounced effect to local destruction of liver focal diseases, can be recommended for open and laparoscopic operations on liver.
RELATIONSHIP OF BLOOD PRESSURE RESPONSES TO ISOMETRIC EXERCISE IN NON-HYPERTENSIVE MEDICAL STUDENTS WITH FAMILIAL HYPERTENSION
Authors: Zafar Umema , Rahman Shafiq Ur , Malik Omar , Salman Henna 
Published: September 2021

Background
Blood pressure (BP) rises as a result of isometric exercise, but if such type of exercise is done on a regular basis both resting diastolic and systolic blood pressures (SBP and SBP) have been reported to decrease. However, the blood pressure responses to handgrip (isometric) exercise may vary. The aim of this study is to find out whether there is a significant relation between blood pressure responses due to handgrip (HG) exercise and family history of hypertension.

Methods
This is cross sectional study conducted in Khyber Medical College on healthy students of first and second year MBBS. After taking informed consentand history, the students were made to perform the hand grip exercise for 5 minutes at 30 % of their maximum pressure. BP was recorded before during and after the procedure. The data was then analyzed using SPSS version 20.0 keeping, P value ? 0.05.

Result
The change in SBP was significant both during (p=0.024) and after (p=0.033) hand grip exercise. The relation between 30% of maximum pressure applied and change in SBP is significant (p<0.001) in the familial hypertension present group only.

Conclusion
There was significant change in systolic blood pressure in response to handgrip exercise in the group of subjects with familial hypertension positive group. Hence concluded that a relation does exist between blood pressure responses to handgrip exercise and familial hypertension.

Teachers’ Narrative Understandings of Parents: Living and Reliving “Possible Lives” as Professionals
Authors: Pushor Debbie 
Published: September 2021

In this article, I explore aspects of a narrative inquiry with former teacher candidates to understand how living out a curriculum of parents (Pushor, 2011; Pushor, 2013) in their university coursework deepened their knowledge and prompted questions about discourses and representations of parents and families. I focus on two former teacher candidates, Cat and Carly, who tell stories of their experiences within a curriculum of parents and then subsequently as teachers. I explore the “possible lives” (Bruner, 1987/2004) they imagine for themselves as teachers and what teacher “life narratives” (Bruner, 1987/2004) they construct and reconstruct in their practice. What is made visible is that when preservice teachers are supported to unpack and examine, with deliberation, ways of living and telling stories of parents, and the philosophical, pedagogical and practical conceptualizations that underpin such living and telling, a curriculum of parents offers preservice teachers possibilities for interrupting habitual teacher life narratives and for guiding the construction and reconstruction of new teacher life narratives (Bruner, 1987/2004).
Transgenerational Learning within Families
Authors: Kabuto Bobbie 
Published: September 2021

This article proposes a data-driven transgenerational learning model to reconceptualize the study of literacy learning within families. Based on an empirical study composed of case studies of six families, the data and findings of the larger study foregrounded the “messiness” of learning within families. Studying learning within families requires a fundamental shift in viewing how learning is socially and culturally organized and how families engage their children in learning experiences. Problematizing the notion of the intergenerational transmission of knowledge and beliefs from parents to children, the article highlights how a transgenerational lens provides an alternative way of viewing how and why parents and children engage in learning experiences around reading in the home and school. Implications for viewing families as complex units whose knowledge and belief systems cross generations through the process of reciprocal socialization are discussed.
Exploring Parent-Teacher Partnerships as Border Pedagogy: Supporting Emergent Bilingual Student Learning
Authors: Mercuri Sandra 
Published: September 2021

Abstract: As a bilingual teacher educator in the U.S. working with in-service teachers serving predominantly bilingual students from U.S. and Mexico, this study is uniquely positioned to use innovative research in bilingual teacher education for empowering teachers to develop culturally and linguistically responsive border pedagogies. Specifically, this study explores parent-teacher partnerships as border pedagogy that supports emergent bilingual student teaching and learning. Aimed at disrupting traditional modes of research and practice grounded in monolingualism, this qualitative critical study uses the concept of border pedagogy as a theoretical framework to explore how 16 bilingual in-service teachers enrolled in a master’s program, engaged in parent-teacher partnerships that supported bilingual and bicultural teaching and learning at the US-Mexico border.
Using Participatory Action Research to Create Systematic Parent Engagement
Authors: Pushor Debbie 
Published: September 2021

Despite ample research supporting the value of strong family, school, and community partnerships, few districts or communities have been able to support and sustain systematic parent engagement. This article focuses on the efforts undertaken by a research team in Saskatoon, Canada to develop a model that empowers parents to systematically engage with educators and schools in order to enhance educational and social outcomes for children and parents. Central to this effort has been the use of participatory action research (PAR) as a means to honor and engage the experiences of diverse community members. This article highlights specific PAR methods that supported the development of a more systematic approach to parent engagement. The experiences described demonstrate how the improvisatory and responsive nature of the PAR approach help to both build trust and create more sustainable changes in communities.
Are we ready to design oral PROTACs®?
Authors: Garcia Jimenez Diego , Rossi Sebastiano Matteo , Caron Giulia , Ermondi Giuseppe 
Published: September 2021

PROTACs® are expected to strongly impact the future of drug discovery. Therefore, in this work we firstly performed a statistical study to highlight the distribution of E3 ligases and POIs collected in PROTAC-DB, the main online database focused on degraders. Moreover, since the emerging technology of protein degradation deals with large and complex chemical structures, the second part of the paper focuses on how to set up a property-based design strategy to obtain oral degraders. For this purpose, we calculated a pool of seven previously ad hoc selected 2D descriptors for the 2258 publicly available degraders in PROTAC-DB (average values: MW= 972.9 Da, nC= 49.5, NAR= 4.5, PHI= 17.3, nHDon= 4.5, nHAcc= 17.7 and TPSA= 240 Å2) and compared them to a dataset of 50 bRo5 orally approved drugs. Then, a chemical space based on nC, PHI and TPSA was built and subregions with optimal permeability and bioavailability were identified. Bioavailable degraders (ARV-110 and ARV-471) tend to be closer to the Ro5 region, using mainly semi-rigid linkers. Permeable degraders, on the other hand, are placed in an average central region of the chemical space but chameleonicity could allow them to be located closer to the two Arvinas compounds.

ANTROPOLOGIENS SKIFTENDE OBJEKT: Om politisk og kulturel autonomi. Eksempler fra Sydamerika
Authors: Fock Niels 
Published: September 2021

anthropology: on political and cultural
autonomy among Indigenous peoples in
South America
Considering the historical and theoretical
notions of the object of study during the last
flfty years of Danish anthropology it is
sketched how developments in world
politics, in local indigenous societies and in
the discipline of anthropology have forced
anthropologists to take new stands. During
the fnst twenty years the academic establishment
was at the fore, while world politics
was a very dominant factor for the next two
decades. Apparently indigenous peoples
have in the last decade tumed increasingly
explicit about the advisory role of anthropology,
not least in relation to human rights.
Tove Søvndahl Petersen: An Indigenous
people with home rule
The establishment of the Greenland Home
Rule Government in 1979 has meant political
influence for the Greenlanders, after more
than 200 years of colonial rule. Indigenous
peoples today look towards the Greenland
Home Rule as an ideal. Greenlanders’ own
acceptance of an identity as indigenous came,
however, quite late, and the Greenland
identity has throughout history been marked
by the relatively unviolent Danish colonisation.
Home Rule means new challenges to
Greenland identity, at the same time as it provides
freedom to form future strategies for
the Greenlanders in persuasive ways.

The guinea pig from the Andean region in
South America has a long cultural history.
Archaeological evidence dates its use as
domestic animal back to 5000 BC. While the
guinea pig in its native environment has traditionally
been raised for consumption, it also
has an important social and ceremonial
use in folk-medicine and in native religious
practices. The author took part in a healing
ceremony in central Peru where the guinea
pig was used to diagnose a patient's illness.
The curanderismo is an Andean healing
practise which recently has attracted the interest
of western medical physicians.

Response to the Epidemics of Urbanization.
AIDS Information in Southern
Zambia
In Southern Zambia, Tonga people associate
AIDS with a locally defined disease called
kahungo which is said to be caused by
contact with symbolically polluted biood.
Before the arrival of AIDS, kahungo was
associated with TB and sexually transmitted
diseases. In Africa, epidemics of TB and
STDs were often related to colonization and
urbanization. Similar to AIDS, they spread
more rapidly than what was known in
Europe, and the colonial administration tried
to explain this with “problems of behaviour”,
thereby ignoring the miserable
conditions under which people lived. The
Tongas’ association of these diseases with
kahungo should be seen as a social response
to new epidemics. While the Europeans
talked about individual problems of adaptation
to modem life, kahungo concems the
collective responsibility to maintain order.
Kahungo, a disease of disorderly biood, has
become the symbol of the disorder of
urbanization and modemization.

Klaus Ferdinand: From Expedition to
Fieldwork
In 1945 the study of ethnography (cultural
anthropology) started at Copenhagen University
under Dr. Kaj Birket-Smith, head
curator at the Department of Ethnography,
the Danish National Museum. The post-war
years were a period of great expectations and
enthusiasm, but of little money. Early ethnographical
field experiences often took place
within archaeological or natural science expeditions;
later, after the establishment of
The Danish State Research Foundation in
1952, they were followed by a few
ethnographical expeditions, that is, before
individual fieldwork became the rule. The
article surveys these developments, coloured
by the author’s own experiences, changing
theoretical orientations and methodologies.
