Procedeu-se à caracterização química das águas de irrigação determinando-se sua condutividade elétrica, pH, teores de Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, K+, SiO2, CO32-, HCO3- , Cl-, além de Al, Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Ti e Zn.As águas de poços e do rio diferenciaram-se quimicamente, sendo que as águas de poços apresentaram maiores valores médios de condutividade elétrica e Razão de Adsorção de Sódio (RAS), assim como maiores teores de Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, HCO3-, Cl-, Si, Mn e Zn. As águas de poços foram consideradas de médio risco de salinidade e baixo risco de sodicidade, além de estarem próximas do limiar de restrição de uso devido aos elevados teores de bicarbonato em solução. As águas do rio foram classificadas como de baixo risco de salinidade e risco severo de sodicidade. UNITERMOS: Água dura; Água de irrigação-Carbonatos. NUNES, W. A. G. A., KER, J. C., NEVES, J. C. L., RUIZ, H. A., FREITAS, G. A., BEIRIGO, R. M.; QUALITY OF IRRIGATION WATER FROM TUBULAR WELLS AND THE GORUTUBA RIVER NEAR JANAUBA-MG 2 ABSTRACT This work aimed to study the irrigation water quality from wells and from Gorutuba River used in 24 banana farms nearby Janauba, Minas Gerais State, Brazil. Chemical water characterization included electric conductivity, pH, concentrations of Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, K+, SiO2, CO32-, HCO3- , Cl-, Al, Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Ti and Zn. Well and river waters differed chemically; the former presented higher electric conductivity and SAR average values, as well as higher Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, HCO3-, Cl-, Si, Mn and Zn contents. Well waters were considered of medium salinity risk and low acidity risk and the high bicarbonate contents were close to restriction values for irrigation use. The river waters were classified as low salinity risk and severe acidity risk.

Musculature of the Soft Palate: Clinico-anatomic Correlations and Therapeutic Implications in the Treatment of Cleft Palates
Authors: Vacher Christian , Pavy Bernard , Ascherman Jeffrey 
Published: October 2018

Objective Hypoptasia of the maxilla, often described as a classic sequela to surgical repair of the cleft palate, has been rare In our experience. We believe that our surgical technique, which includes dividing the nasal mucosa and the abnormal muscular insertions at the posterior border of the hard palate, is an important factor in preventing this sequela. Method We compared the anatomy of 12 normal palates in cadavers to the anatomy of cleft palates seen at operation and to the anatomy of one cleft palate in a fetus aged 34 weeks. Results In cleft palates, the muscular fibers have an abnormal sagittal orientation, inserting on the posterior border of the hard palate. Conclusion The division of both the nasal mucosa and these abnormal muscular insertions at the posterior border of the hard palate enables the surgeon to eliminate the abnormal posterior pull of these fibers on the maxilla.

Objective In this investigation, the precision of a commercial three-dimensional digitizer in the detection of facial landmarks in human adults was assessed. Methods Fifty landmarks were identified and marked on the faces of five men, on five women, and on a stone cast of the face of one man. For each subject, the three-dimensional coordinates of the landmarks were obtained twice using an electromagnetic three-dimensional digitizer, and the duplicate digitizations were superimposed using common orientations and centers of gravity. Metric differences between homologous landmarks were assessed, and Dahlberg's error was computed. Results For both men and women, the error was 1.05% of the nasion-mid-tragion distance, while for the cast, it was 0.9%. When the duplicate digitizations were used to mathematically reconstruct the faces, and several distances, angles, volumes, and surfaces were computed, more than 80% of the measurements had coefficients of variation lower than 1%. Conclusions The digitizer can assess the coordinates of facial landmarks with sufficient precision, and reliable measurements can be obtained.
Repair of Bilateral Complete Cleft Lip and Nasal Deformity—State of the Art
Authors: Mulliken John B. 
Published: October 2018

Objective Dissatisfaction with the stigmata of repaired bilateral cleft lip has stimulated surgeons to change conventional operative strategies. The old staged labial repairs, one side and later the other, have been replaced by simultaneous closure. For nasal correction, most surgeons no longer believe that the columella is deficient, and thus there is no need to recruit tissue from the lip or nostril sills as a secondary procedure. The columella is concealed in the nose. The new strategy is to construct the columella and nasal tip by anatomic positioning of the alar cartilages and sculpting the investing skin. Furthermore, nasal correction is done at the time of bilateral labial repair and, whenever possible, the alveolar clefts are closed as well. The goal is primary repair of the primary palate. Conclusion Although the principles of synchronous repair of the bilateral complete cleft lip and nasal deformity are established, the techniques continue to evolve. Bilateral nasolabial repair requires continual study of three-dimensional form and fourth-dimensional changes that are normal and altered by the deformity. Every surgeon who lifts a knife to care for these children has an obligation to periodically assess outcome.

Published: October 2018

Objective Cleft lip and palate is among the most common congenital anomalies. Its association with major blood disorders has rarely been reported. The purpose of this study was to report two patients who had major blood diseases associated with cleft lip and palate. Patients and Results From June 1995 to December 1997, there were 2700 patients with cleft lip, cleft palate, or both who received treatment at Chang Gung Memorial Hospital. Two of them were found to have major hematological disorders. In both cases, the disorder was detected by preoperative blood cell counts and white cell differentiation. Case 1 was a 21-year-old woman patient with repaired right cleft lip. She was admitted for alveolar bone grafting and closure of oronasal fistula. Abnormal presentation of blast cells was found, and subsequent bone marrow study confirmed acute lymphocytic leukemia. Case 2 was a 26-year-old man with left secondary cleft lip nasal deformity scheduled to receive staged reconstructive operations. An elevated platelet count was found and subsequently confirmed to represent essential thrombocytosis. In both cases, reconstructive operations for the cleft-related deformities were performed. Conclusions Association of major hemotological disorders and cleft lip, palate, or both is rare and is reported herein.

Objective The purpose of this study was twofold: (1) to describe the patterns of missing teeth in patients with hemifacial microsomia (HFM) and (2) to compare the prevalence of missing teeth in subjects with HFM with a group of unaffected subjects. Study Design A descriptive study was conducted comparing HFM subjects with a group of patients selected from an orthodontic clinic. Methods The prevalence of missing teeth was assessed by evaluation of panoramic radiographs. At the time of the study, records of 125 patients with HFM were available from the Craniofacial Center at Boston's Children's Hospital. Seventy-six met inclusion criteria for radiographic analysis of hypodontia. Fifty-two patients met inclusion criteria into the comparison study in which the prevalence of hypodontia was compared with a group of patients from the Department of Orthodontics at Harvard School of Dental Medicine. A Fisher's exact test was conducted to test the hypothesis that HFM patients have a greater prevalence of missing teeth than individuals without the anomaly. A chi-square test for trend was conducted to determine whether hypodontia was more prevalent with increasing severity of the mandibular deformity in HFM. Results Hypodontia was more common among HFM patients (26.9%) versus the comparison group in which no missing teeth were recorded (p < .0001). Additionally, the degree of hypodontia was correlated with the grade of mandibular hypoplasia (p = .024). Conclusion Hypodontia was found to be more prevalent in patients with HFM than in comparison subjects, possibly indicating an etiologic link between the two conditions.

Published: October 2018

Objective: To explore the application of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the evaluation of patients with occult submucous cleft palate and to use the MRI information obtained to aid in the treatment decision to perform surgery versus behavioral speech therapy. Design: Prospective study with magnetic resonance (MR) images of subjects suspected of having occult submucous cleft palate. Setting: Hospital and university-based. Patients: Two girls who were 4 years old at the time of palatal surgery. Intervention: Furlow double-opposing Z-plasty. Main outcome measures: MR images and clinical speech evaluations. Results: MR images provided evidence of an interruption of levator veli palatini muscle tissue in the midline and a substantial attachment of levator muscle tissue to the posterior border of the hard palate. In addition, MR images for both subjects demonstrated remarkably similar bilateral encapsulating sheaths that contained nonmuscular tissue, as confirmed subsequently during surgery. The encapsulating sheaths interrupted the normal progression of the levator muscle sling across the midline. The MR images led to the decision to perform surgery instead of speech therapy. Hypernasality was markedly reduced in both subjects after surgery. Conclusions: MRI is an effective technique for diagnosing occult submucous cleft palate and may be an important aid in the treatment decision regarding surgery versus behavioral speech therapy for patients diagnosed with occult submucous cleft palate.

Published: October 2018

Objective To investigate the pattern of breast-feeding and sugar intake among babies with cleft lip and palate. Participants Caretakers of 200 babies with cleft lip and palate enrolled at the Hospital for Rehabilitation of Craniofacial Anomalies, University of São Paulo, Bauru, Brazil. Results A low prevalence of breast-feeding was found. The most reported reason was the sucking inability of the baby. Complete cleft lip and palate was the primary cause affecting sucking. The first contact with sugar occurred mainly through the baby bottle with milk during the first month of life. For nutritional supplement, the children were given sugar and fruit juices in the bottle. Conclusions It was observed that dietary habits in babies with cleft lip and palate are more risky. This highlights the role played by early education and constant oral hygiene follow-up for prevention in these patients.

Abstract

Background
In nongastric gastrointestinal (GI) cancers, HER2-positive (HER2+) disease is not common. In breast cancer, HER2 status is associated with increased risk of brain metastases and response to HER2-targeted therapy. The purpose of this project was to compare HER2 status in GI cancer brain metastases versus matched prior sites of disease in order to determine if HER2+ disease is more common intracranially.

Materials and Methods
We identified 28 patients with GI cancer who had craniotomy for brain metastases between 1999 and 2017 with intracranial metastatic tissue available at Massachusetts General Hospital. Twenty-four patients also had tissue from a prior site of disease. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and immunohistochemistry (IHC) for HER2 were performed on all samples. A tumor was defined as HER2+ if it had 3+ staining by IHC or amplification by FISH.

Results
A prior site of disease (including intracranial metastases) was HER2+ for 13% of evaluable patients: 3 of 11 patients with colorectal cancer and no patients with esophageal or pancreatic cancer. The most recent brain metastases were HER2+ for 32% of patients: 2 of 3 esophageal squamous cell carcinomas, 3 of 10 esophageal adenocarcinomas (ACs), 3 of 14 colorectal ACs, and 1 of 1 pancreatic AC. Only 37.5% of patients with HER2+ brain metastasis had concordant HER2+ prior tissue (κ = 0.38, p = .017).

Conclusion
In this cohort of patients with GI cancer with brain metastases, HER2+ status was more common intracranially compared with prior sites of disease. These findings suggest that testing HER2 in patients with GI cancer with brain metastases may lead to additional therapeutic options, regardless of HER2 status in previously examined tissue.

Implications for Practice
HER2 amplification is a well-known driver of oncogenesis in breast cancer, with associated increased risk of brain metastases and response to HER2-directed therapy. In nongastric gastrointestinal (GI) cancers, HER2 amplification is not common and consequently is infrequently tested. The current study shows that brain metastases in patients with GI primary malignancies have a relatively high likelihood of being HER2 positive despite HER2 amplification or overexpression being less commonly found in matched tissue from prior sites of disease. This suggests that regardless of prior molecular testing, patients with GI cancer with brain metastases who have tissue available are likely to benefit from HER2 assessment to identify potential novel therapeutic options.

Published: October 2018

Синтезированы металл-углеродные сорбенты на основе высокодисперсного пористого шунгита,модифицированного серебром. Методами энергодисперсионного рентгеновского микроанализа, дисперсионного анализа и поверхностно-активированной масс-спектрометрии с лазерной десорбцией /ионизацией исследованы физико-химические свойства металл-углеродных материалов и их сорбционные свойства по отношению к фенолу. Установлено, что серебро прочно удерживается на поверхности шунгита и его ионизация затруднена. Поверхностных кластеров, содержащих молекулы фенола и серебра, на поверхности металл-углеродного сорбента, модифицированного фенолом, не обнаружено. Модифицирование шунгита серебром способствует увеличению дисперсности его водных суспензий в результате усиления гидрофильных свойств шунгита.
Image and Discursive Landscape: Reflections on Iconic Land Art of the American West
Authors: Pomerantz Kaitlin 
Published: October 2018

The writer, a interdisciplinary visual artist focusing on landscape and land use, took a trip in the fall of 2016 through various iconic land art sites with Texas Tech University’s Land Arts of the American West program. Immersive engagement with sites such as Robert Smithson’s Spiral Jetty (1968) and Michael Heizer’s Double Negative (1969-70) offered the opportunity to reflect—critically and experientially—on the ways that the land artists’ speculations on natural history and humanity’s experience of landscape resonate both with the planned degradation of the sites, and our new, more fraught relationship to environmental change.

Published: October 2018

El embarazo en las adolescentes afecta la salud de la madre, tiene afecciones en las expectativas de la vida personal, en el ámbito educativo, social, laboral y en los aspectos económicos. Alrededor de este problema de salud pública existe migración, desintegración familiar, limitados servicios educativos y de salud así, como escasas opciones de trabajo y malas condiciones de vivienda. El presente estudio pretende incrementar los conocimientos sobre sexualidad de adolescentes de tres planteles de educación primaria a través de una intervención educativa. Los métodos incluyen tres etapas: una primera medición de los conocimientos; una intervención educativa de once sesiones; y, una segunda medición. Se utilizó el programa SPSS Versión 20.0 para el procesamiento y análisis de los datos. Entre los resultados destaca que participaron 168 mujeres adolescentes con una edad mínima de 9 años y máxima de 14 años; en general hubo un incremento de los conocimientos sobre sexualidad debido a la intervención educativa realizada. Se concluye que es importante realizar este tipo de intervenciones en la población adolescente a fin de disminuir el embarazo adolescente. Habrá que dar seguimiento a las participantes en miras de identificar sus conductas sexuales.
The Meeting of 21–22 November, 1915, about the Reception and Accommodation of Refugees in the Irkutsk Governorate General
Authors: Dolidovich O. M. 
Published: October 2018

The article features the meeting held on November 21–22, 1915, where representatives of the authorities, municipal and public organizations discussed the issues of assistance to World War I refugees on the territory of the Irkutsk Governorate General. The study is based on the previously unstudied meeting minutes and the newspaper reports and describes the participants, the main issues, and the results of the discussion. The research made it obvious that initially the authorities did not plan to accommodate the refugees in such a remote region but were forced to redirect them farther east because the western regions were overcrowded. The cities of Eastern Siberiadid not have time to prepare for such a massive resettlement. The migrants were hastily resettled, provided with rations and medical assistance. The money, however minimal and irregular, came mostly from the government, the department of migration, the All-Russian Union ofCities, and local charitable organizations. At the meeting, it was proposed to set up a general Siberian Committee for Assistance to Refugees, to organize local refugee departments, and assign all expenses to the state.
History of The Autonomous Industrial Colony "Kuzbass" in Foreign Research: Review of Julia L. Mickenberg’s "American Girls in Red Russia: Chasing the Soviet Dream" (2017)
Authors: Rabkina N. V. 
Published: October 2018

The current paper features "American Girls in Red Russia: Chasing the Soviet Dream" (2017) by Julia L. Mickenberg, PhD in American Studies from the University of Texas. The author gives a thorough account of reasons that led American women in 1920–1930 to Soviet Russia. One of the chapters is dedicated to American author and journalist Ruth Epperson Kennell (1889–1977), who worked for the Autonomous Industrial Colony Kuzbass in 1922–1924, which makes her part of a unique industrial experiment in international partnership. She fulfilled duties of a secretary and librarian and continued to work at the library of Comintern in Moscow after her contract with Kuzbass expired. In 1928 she accompanied Theodore Dreiser in his Russian tour; he chose her as a prototypefor one of the novellas in his "Gallery of women". Relying on Kennell’s archive and written accounts of other Colony members, J. L. Mickenberg suggests that American women were attracted by the communal lifestyle ofsuch organizations as AIC "Kuzbass", as long as it offered them a relief from what was considered a woman’s traditional duties and a professional and artistic fulfi which led to a paradox: American women left for Soviet Russia in pursuit of the so-called American dream. Professor Mickenberg explains some of the radical feminism in her research subjects from the point of view of psychoanalysis and shows how environment and social changes influenced private life of the "Russian Americans". The monograph proves that the constant interest for the history and heritage of the Autonomous Industrial Colony "Kuzbass" is not only local but international.
