Authors: Muhammed khalid  , Muhammad Hammad Hassan  , Muhammad Asif  , Qadeer Ahmad Tariq  
Published: May 2021

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE: Vesicovaginal fistula is one of the common gynecological problems faced by ladies in developing countries on account of certain significant lacunas in the healthcare delivery system and lack of awareness. The purpose of this study is to highlight our experience of primary vesicovaginal fistula repair.
METHODOLOGY: It is a cross-sectional experimental study from February 2019 to February 2020. Nineteen consecutive patients having vesicovaginal fistulas up to 3 cm in size, single in number were included in the study while those having fistulas more than 3 cm, involving urethra, bladder neck, and ureteric orifice were excluded. After a detailed history, physical examination, laboratory workup, and cystoscopic examination under anesthesia, the fistulas were repaired. All information was noted on the pre-planned questionnaire for this purpose.
RESULTS: There are around 63% of patients having fistula infratrigonal and the rest percentage on the supratrigonal area of the urinary bladder. The risk factor found hysterectomy in 32% of patients, unsupervised home delivery in 16% of patients, C-Section in 12% of patients, delivery by an untrained person in 26% of patients, induced miscarriages in 5% of patients, and other risk factors found in 12% patients. The 68% of patients managed through transabdominal and the rest 32% patients operated through the transvaginal approach. The surgery, either transabdominal or transvaginal, was successfully done in 84% of patients and failed in the rest of 16% of patients.
CONCLUSION: Fistulas due to obstetric trauma were mostly preventable. The success of surgical repair was due to health professionals' expertise, the suitable decision about approach, method of repair, proper preoperative evaluation, and careful postoperative management.

An Assessment Of Instructional Module In Basic And Higher Educational Institutions In Zambales: Plagiarism Issues
Authors: Mobo Froilan D , Rahmat Abdul 
Published: May 2021

<p>During the full Implementation of flexible learning in both basic and higher education, the majority of the schools opted to choose to use a modular approach rather than online learning. There are a lot of struggles encountered by both teachers and students. Part of the Struggle is the development of modular instructional materials. There are teachers that accidentally didn’t cite credible sources which reflected in their modules. Book Authors also suffered from copywriting and plagiarism issues because there are teachers that don’t know how to cite or give credit to the authors of the book or in some published research. This study will help both teachers and administrators of both basic and higher education on how to formalize a standard method on how to cite credible sources just like in a refereed research journal.</p>
Solar Energetic Electron Events Associated with Hard X-Ray Flares

Published: May 2021

Abstract
We investigate 16 solar energetic electron (SEE) events measured by WIND/3DP with a double-power-law spectrum and the associated western hard X-ray (HXR) flares measured by RHESSI with good count statistics, from 2002 February to 2016 December. In all the 16 cases, the presence of an SEE power-law spectrum extending down to ≤5 keV at 1 au implies that the SEE source would be high in the corona, at a heliocentric distance of ≥1.3 solar radii, while the footpoint or footpoint-like emissions shown in HXR images suggest that the observed HXRs are likely produced mainly by HXR-producing electrons via thick-target bremsstrahlung processes very low in the corona. We find that for all the 16 cases, the estimated power-law spectral index of HXR-producing electrons is no less than the observed high-energy spectral index of SEEs, and it shows a positive correlation with the high-energy spectral index of SEEs. In addition, the estimated number of SEEs is only ∼10−4–10−2 of the estimated number of HXR-producing electrons at energies above 30 keV, but with a positive correlation between the two numbers. These results suggest that in these cases, SEEs are likely formed by upward-traveling electrons from an acceleration source high in the corona, while their downward-traveling counterparts may undergo a secondary acceleration before producing HXRs via thick-target bremsstrahlung processes. In addition, the associated 3He/4He ratio is positively correlated with the observed high-energy spectral index of SEEs, indicating a possible relation of the 3He ion acceleration with high-energy SEEs.
Erosion and Accretion by Cratering Impacts on Rocky and Icy Bodies
Authors: Hyodo Ryuki , Genda Hidenori 
Published: May 2021

Abstract
During planet formation, numerous small impacting bodies result in cratering impacts on large target bodies. A fraction of the target surface is eroded, while a fraction of the impactor material accretes onto the surface. These fractions depend upon the impact velocities, the impact angles, and the escape velocities of the target. This study uses smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulations to model cratering impacts onto a planar icy target for which gravity is the dominant force and material strength is neglected. By evaluating numerical results, scaling laws are derived for the escape mass of the target material and the accretion mass of the impactor material onto the target surface. Together with recently derived results for rocky bodies in a companion study, a conclusion is formulated that typical cratering impacts on terrestrial planets, except for those on Mercury, led to a net accretion, while those on the moons of giant planets, e.g., Rhea and Europa, led to a net erosion. Our newly derived scaling laws would be useful for predicting the erosion of the target body and the accretion of the impactor for a variety of cratering impacts that would occur on large rocky and icy planetary bodies during planet formation and collisional evolution from ancient times to today.

Published: May 2021

Notre article est une étude sur Juan Luis Vives, un humaniste hispano-flamand, et se compose de trois parties : une présentation de sa personnalité (d’humaniste, de pédagogue, de linguiste, d’homme politique au XVIe siècle), une analyse de sa théorie de la traduction (les variations textuelles), et une réflexion sur la présence ou l’absence de Vives dans les traités d’histoire de la traduction.
Un siècle de traductologie russe
Authors: Garbovskiy Nikolay 
Published: May 2021

La période de l’histoire de la traductologie russe que je voudrais envisager s’étend sur cent ans (de la révolution russe de 1917 à nos jours), il s’agit donc de l’histoire contemporaine de la pensée traductologique. Lors de l’histoire séculaire de la traductologie, trois courants de recherches, avec la prédominance littéraire, linguistique, ou interdisciplinaire, se succèdent, ce qui nous permet de voir des traits similaires dans l’évolution de la pensée traductologique russe et celle des pays occidentaux.
Traduire pour vaincre la guerre : l’or noir, l’extrémisme rouge et la traduction multicolore
Authors: Awaiss Henri 
Published: May 2021

Est-ce par hasard que la traduction a fait son entrée dans une université située sur la ligne de démarcation au cours de la guerre libanaise qui s’est rapidement propagée au reste des pays arabes ? Cette région, ayant comme péché originel l’or noir et l’extrémisme rouge, aura à ajouter, ou à reprendre, la traduction multicolore. Cette contribution se propose de transmettre l’histoire de l’ETIB en six parties : la fondation ; les soucis et les problèmes ; les praticiens et les théoriciens ; la collection « Sources-Cibles » ; les butterfly effects ; la traduction comme comportement. Enfin, dans les Mélanges en l’honneur de Michel Ballard parus en 2007, nous avions souligné que « dans notre région, dans ce triste Orient, notre besoin se résume en trois verbes : écrire, traduire et jouir ».
Clinical characteristics and rehospitalization in patients with schizophrenia with or without history of amphetamine abuse
Authors: Huang Wei-Ching , Chan Hung-Yu 
Published: May 2021

Objective:
In this study, we intended to study the differences of the clinical characteristics between patients with schizophrenia with or without history of amphetamine abuse and risk factors of rehospitalization.

Methods:
We used medical records and reviewed electronic database to collect the two schizophrenia groups discharged from the Taoyuan Psychiatric Center from January 1, 2012, to December 31, 2015. Patients with and without amphetamine abuse were defined as case group and control group, respectively. The patients' demographic data and clinical variables were extracted and examined.

Results:
We identified 80 patients in the case group and 142 patients in the control group. Up to 32.5% of the case group patients still showed a positive urine amphetamine test. The univariate analysis showed that significant differences existed in gender (p < 0.001), age (p < 0.001), marriage (p < 0.05), education (p < 0.001), psychiatric comorbidity (p < 0.05), family history of schizophrenia (p < 0.01), family history of illicit substance use (p < 0.001), history of suicide (p < 0.01), history of violence (p < 0.001), hospitalization days (p < 0.001), and rehospitalization rate (p < 0.05). The result of the logistic regression showed that the number of previous admissions was a positive predictor of rehospitalization and that with family history of schizophrenia was a negative predictor of rehospitalization. The Cox proportional hazards regression model analysis showed that the number of previous admissions was still a positive predictive factor for the rehospitalization.

Conclusion:
In this study, the characteristics of two study patient groups were different. Patients with schizophrenia and with a history of amphetamine abuse had a tendency of amphetamine abuse and a higher rate of rehospitalization. Further treatment for amphetamine abstinence in the community for this population is warranted to strengthen the study results.

Purpose: To investigate the effect of Kang fu yan capsule (KFYC) on phenol mucilage-induced intrauterine adhesion (IUA) in a rat model, and the underlying mechanisms.
Methods: An IUA model was established by injecting 0.06 mL of 25 % phenol mucilage into the uterus of female Sprague-Dawley rats. The IUA model rats (n=59) were randomly divided into 5 groups: IUA group, fuke qianjin tablet group (FKQJT, 0.22 mg/kg), and 3 KFYC groups given different doses of the drug i.e. 0.13, 0.39and 1.17 mg/kg. A group of 10 healthy female rats served as control. After 19 days treatment, blood samples were collected for determination of IL-2 and IL-10 by ELISA, while uterine tissues were subjected to histological examination using hematoxylin and eosin staining (H&E) and Masson staining. Expressions of Notch1, recombination signal binding protein-JK (RBP-JK), a disintegrin and metalloprotease (ADAM)-12, ADAM-15, matrix metalloprotein-9 (MMP-9), and inhibitor of NF-κB (IĸB) in uterine tissues were determined using RT-qPCR and western blot analysis.
Results: Compared to IUA group, histological results showed reduced inflammatory cell infiltration in rat uterine tissue of KFYC group. Moreover, KFYC significantly reversed uterine fibrosis (p < 0.05). Serum concentrations of IL-2 significantly decreased in KFYC groups (p < 0.05 or p < 0.01), and there was significant increases the serum concentrations of IL-10 in KFYC groups (p < 0.05 or < 0.01), when compared to IUA group. The mRNA and protein expressions of Notch1, RBP-JK, ADAM-12, ADAM-15, MMP-9 were also significantly down-regulated (p < 0.05), while protein expression of IĸB was upregulated in KFYC group, when compared to IUA group.
Conclusion: KFYC exerts an anti-IUA effect via amelioration of uterine inflammation and fibrosis, probably via a mechanism involving regulation of Notch1/ADAM pathway.

Purpose: To develop PEGylated mucin as a carrier system for oral insulin delivery.
Methods: Varied ratios of snail cyst were molecularly modified with polyethylene glycol 4000 (PEG 4000). Briefly, In each case, 20 g quantities of snail cyst and PEG 4000 were separately dispersed in distilled water, stirred and allowed to stand for 24 h to produce a homogeneous dispersion and clear solution, respectively. The solution of PEG was added to the snail cyst dispersion, stirred and allowed 12 h for molecular interaction. The mixture was added to a 250-mL beaker containing 100 mL of light liquid paraffin. The microparticles were obtained after stirring and removing the paraffin using chilled acetone. The obtained PEGylated mucin matrices, which were subsequently loaded with insulin using a diffusion method, characterized for particles size, drug loading, encapsulation efficiency, in vitro drug release and evaluated for oral application in diabetic rats.
Results: The polymer hybrids improved insulin encapsulation efficiency (max 82.3 %), gave. polydispersity indices that ranged from 0.11 ± 0.1 to 0.24 ± 0.2, zeta potential values between 28 ± 0.3 and 38 ± 1.1 mV. Insulin release was highest (68 % in 6 h) for batch C and was sustained for 10 h in simulated intestinal fluid. The optimized batch (C-5) showed higher hypoglycaemic activity (56.5 %) than control (0.5 %) in diabetic rats.
Conclusion: The results suggest that PEGylated mucin can potentially be developed as a platform for oral insulin delivery

Purpose: To evaluate 5-Benzyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thiol (OXPA) for antidiabetic and antioxidant properties.
Methods: Antidiabetic activity was evaluated using three in vitro models, glucose uptake by yeast cells, alpha amylase inhibition assay and hemoglobin glycosylation inhibition assays. Antioxidant potential was determined by DPPH radical scavenging, reducing power and lipid peroxidation assays.
Results: OXPA showed antidiabetic activity in all the three models. The activity of the compound was comparable with that of metronidazole in glucose uptake by yeast cells, but the alpha amylase inhibition activity of the compound was slightly lower than that of acarbose, whereas the hemoglobin glycosylation inhibition activity of the compound was higher than that of vitamin E. DPPH free radical and hydrogen peroxide scavenging activity of the compound was comparable with that of vitamin C. In reducing power assay, the activity of the compound was lower than that of vitamin C (p > 0.05).
Conclusion: The results of antidiabetic and antioxidant activity indicate that OXPA may be a drugcandidate for treating both diabetes and its associated oxidative stress.

Published: May 2021

Maqashid as-shari'ah is a new trend in the legal istinbath that is undergoing development in the contemporary era. The development of the method of extracting the source of contemporary Islamic law is now considered more promising as using maqashid as-sharia. As a scientific discipline that is the development of fiqh and fiqh rules, maqashid as-shari'ah is now widely studied by experts in Islamic law more deeply. Benefit as the essence of maqashid as-shari'ah, has urgency in determining Islamic law. Because Islamic law is revealed has the purpose and purpose to realize the benefit of the people both in this world and in the Hereafter. Thus the study of maqashid as-shari'ah has a very important correlation in extracting the source of Islamic law, in other words that the excavation of Islamic law based on benefit still refers to the books of qawaid al-fiqhi and ushul al-fiqh. As for the way used by the scholars' in exploring the benefits there are three methods: bayani method (substantive analysis), qiyasi method (analogy analysis), and istishlahi method (benefit analysis)

Le topos du jardin comme « tapis de Turquie » au temps des humanistes, une figure d’art et de mémoire
Authors: Paya Laurent 
Published: May 2021

L’architecture des premiers jardins modernes s’inscrit dans le cadre d’une anthropologie culturelle en interaction avec l’environnement matériel, artistique, cognitif et social. Une « concordance des arts » s’exprime alors explicitement entre l’architecture des jardins ornés de parterres et la confection des tapis orientaux d’apparat. La production d’images et d’espaces s’appuie en effet sur des modèles rhétoriques situés au-delà des réalités sensibles spécifiques à chaque discipline artistique.
On What a Garden Can Remember. The Jardin du Québec and the Floralies internationales 1980 (Montreal)
Authors: Despard Erin 
Published: May 2021

Drawing from work in progress at a series of somewhat neglected public gardens in Montreal, this article explores what a transhistorical, materialist approach to the intermedial study of public gardens might look like. It focuses on the relationship between a documentary film about the gardens made in 1980 (Bonjours Floralies, Bernard Beaupré), and one of the gardens in the present, as a means to develop a novel point of view on the historical and phenomenological functioning of both.
