Aims. In this paper, we characterize the first γ-ray flaring episode of the flat-spectrum radio quasar PKS 0346−27 (z = 0.991), as revealed by Fermi-LAT monitoring data, and the concurrent multi-wavelength variability observed from radio through X-rays.
Methods. We studied the long- and short-term flux and spectral variability from PKS 0346−27 by producing γ-ray light curves with different time binning. We complement the Fermi-LAT data with multi-wavelength observations from the Atacama Large Millimeter Array (radio mm-band), the Rapid Eye Mount telescope (near-infrared) and Swift (optical-UV and X-rays). This quasi-simultaneous multi-wavelength coverage allowed us to construct time-resolved spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of PKS 0346−27 and compare the broadband spectral properties of the source between different activity states using a one-zone leptonic emission model.
Results. PKS 0346−27 entered an elevated γ-ray activity state starting from the beginning of 2018. The high-state continued throughout the year, displaying the highest fluxes in May 2018. We find evidence of short-time scale variability down to approximately 1.5 h, which constrains the γ-ray emission region to be compact. The extended flaring period was characterized by a persistently harder spectrum with respect to the quiescent state, indicating changes in the broadband spectral properties of the source. This was confirmed by the multi-wavelength observations, which show a shift in the position of the two SED peaks by approximately two orders of magnitude in energy and peak flux value. As a result, the non-thermal jet emission completely outshines the thermal contribution from the dust torus and accretion disk during the high state. The broadband SED of PKS 0346−27 transitions from a typical Low-Synchrotron-Peaked (LSP) to the Intermediate-Synchrotron-Peaked (ISP) class, a behavior previously observed in other flaring γ-ray sources. Our one-zone leptonic emission model of the high-state SEDs constrains the γ-ray emission region to have a lower magnetic field, larger radius, and higher maximum electron Lorentz factors with respect to the quiescent SED. Finally, we note that the bright and hard γ-ray spectrum observed during the peak of flaring activity in May 2018 implies that PKS 0346−27 could be a promising target for future ground-based Cherenkov observatories such as the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA). The CTA could detect such a flare in the low-energy tail of its energy range during a high state such as the one observed in May 2018.

Context.Adaptive optics (AO) systems greatly increase the resolution of large telescopes, but produce complex point spread function (PSF) shapes, varying in time and across the field of view. The PSF must be accurately known since it provides crucial information about optical systems for design, characterization, diagnostics, and image post-processing.Aims.We develop here a model of the AO long-exposure PSF, adapted to various seeing conditions and any AO system. This model is made to match accurately both the core of the PSF and its turbulent halo.Methods.The PSF model we develop is based on a parsimonious parameterization of the phase power spectral density, with only five parameters to describe circularly symmetric PSFs and seven parameters for asymmetrical ones. Moreover, one of the parameters is the Fried parameterr0of the turbulence’s strength. This physical parameter is an asset in the PSF model since it can be correlated with external measurements of ther0, such as phase slopes from the AO real time computer (RTC) or site seeing monitoring.Results.We fit our model against end-to-end simulated PSFs using the OOMAO tool, and against on-sky PSFs from the SPHERE/ZIMPOL imager and the MUSE integral field spectrometer working in AO narrow-field mode. Our model matches the shape of the AO PSF both in the core and the halo, with a relative error smaller than 1% for simulated and experimental data. We also show that we retrieve ther0parameter with sub-centimeter precision on simulated data. For ZIMPOL data, we show a correlation of 97% between ourr0estimation and the RTC estimation. Finally, MUSE allows us to test the spectral dependency of the fittedr0parameter. It follows the theoreticalλ6/5evolution with a standard deviation of 0.3 cm. Evolution of other PSF parameters, such as residual phase variance or aliasing, is also discussed.

Published: June 2019

Background Rapid improvement of scanner and postprocessing technology as well as the introduction of minimally invasive procedures requiring preoperative imaging have led to the broad utilization of cardiac computed tomography (CT) beyond coronary CT angiography (CTA).
Method This review article presents an overview of recent literature on cardiac CT. The goal is to summarize the current guidelines on performing cardiac CT and to list established as well as emerging techniques with a special focus on extracoronary applications.
Results and Conclusion Most recent guidelines for the appropriate use of cardiac CT include the evaluation of coronary artery disease, cardiac morphology, intra- and extracardiac structures, and functional and structural assessment of the myocardium under certain conditions. Besides coronary CTA, novel applications such as the calculation of a CT-derived fractional flow reserve (CT-FFR), assessment of myocardial function and perfusion imaging, as well as pre-interventional planning in valvular heart disease or prior pulmonary vein ablation in atrial fibrillation are becoming increasingly important. Especially these extracoronary applications are of growing interest in the field of cardiac CT and are expected to be gradually implemented in the daily clinical routine.

Objective Several factors might affect the health and the quality of life of women who had a severe maternal morbidity (SMM) or a maternal near-miss (MNM) episode. The objective of the present study was to explore the perspectives of the professionals on the repercussions of SMM or of MNM after interviewing women who survived such episodes.
Method Selected cases that captured the attention of professionals were reported. The professionals built individually 10 narratives, which were analyzed with the technique of content analysis.
Results According to the perspectives of the professionals, women surviving a severe maternal condition and their families experienced clinical and psychosocial consequences. Some cases portrayed the intense psychological distress in mourning for the loss of the fetus or of their reproductive capacity and changes in family dynamics generating emotional overload, depression, and gender violence.
Conclusion The analysis of narratives may offer an idea on the complexity of the perception of care by professionals and on the need for an interdisciplinary follow-up of women surviving an SMM or an MNM episode.

Published: June 2019

AbstractIdiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is a disease characterized by an increase in intracranial pressure, without presence of parenchymal lesions or hydrocephalus that justify it. Over 90% of cases there is association with stenosis of the dural venous sinuses. It is characterized by headache, tinidus, nausea, vomiting and visual disturbances. Initial treatment is clinical and when it fails there is indication of invasive procedures, among them shunts and fenestration of the optic nerve sheath. Angioplasty of dural venous sinuses, when indicated, has shown an alternative with better results and less complications. We report a case of a female patient, with 27 years old, diagnosed with IIH and bilateral transverse sinus stenosis, which was treated by bilateral stenting and total resolution of symptoms. Besides describing the case we review the literature about the subject.

Published: June 2019

Background Primary cardiac sarcoma (CS) is an extremely rare disease. This study aims to identify possible prognostic factors for long-term survival.
Methods A total of 17 consecutive patients who were treated for primary CS between 2003 und 2018 at two cardiac centers were investigated. Clinical data and histological characteristics of the tumors were analyzed. Long-term follow-up of all patients were performed.
Results The median age was 54 years (range: 23–74). The tumors originated from the left side of the heart in nine patients. Histologically, there were four angiosarcomas, three intimal sarcomas, and three synovial sarcomas. One- and 7-year survivals were 81.9 and 18.2%, respectively. Low expression levels of Ki-67 tended to be associated with increased survival (log-rank p = 0.06). Adjuvant chemotherapy but not radiotherapy regardless of existing metastases was associated with significantly increased survival (log-rank p = 0.001).
Conclusion Angiosarcoma was the most common type of CS. The survival of CS patients is poor but prognostic factors, such as Ki-67, may help estimate the course of the disease. Survival could be improved significantly with chemotherapy.

Published: June 2019

Objective The main objective of the present study was to estimate the annual treatment costs of invasive cervical cancer (ICC) per patient at an oncology center in Brazil from a societal perspective by considering direct medical, direct nonmedical, and indirect costs.
Methods A cost analysis descriptive study, in which direct medical, direct nonmedical, and indirect costs were collected using a microcosting approach, was conducted between May 2014 and July 2016 from a societal perspective. The study population consisted of women diagnosed with ICC admitted to a tertiary hospital in Recife, state of Pernambuco, Brazil. The annual cost per patient was estimated in terms of the value of American Dollars (US$) in 2016.
Results From a societal perspective, the annual ICC treatment cost per patient was US$ 2,219.73. Direct medical costs were responsible for 81.2% of the total value, of which radiotherapy and outpatient chemotherapy had the largest share. Under the base-case assumption, the estimated cost to the national budget of a year of ICC treatment in the Brazilian population was US$ 25,954,195.04.
Conclusion We found a high economic impact of health care systems treating ICC in a poor region of Brazil. These estimates could be applicable to further evaluations of the cost-effectiveness of preventing and treating ICC.

Published: June 2019

Objective The objective of this review was to analyze the impact on ovarian reserve of the different hemostatic methods used during laparoscopic cystectomy.
Data Sources The studies were identified by searching electronic databases (MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane, LILACS) and scanning reference lists of articles.
Methods of Study Selection We selected clinical trials that assessed the influence of hemostatic techniques on ovarian reserve in patients with ovarian cysts with benign sonographic appearance submitted to laparoscopic cystectomy by stripping technique. The included trials compared different laparoscopic hemostatic techniques: suture, bipolar electrocoagulation, ultrasonic energy and hemostatic sealants. The outcomes evaluated were level of serum anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) and antral follicle count (AFC). The possibility of publication bias was evaluated by funnel plots.
Tabulation, Integration and Results Twelve trials involving 1,047 patients were evaluated. Laparoscopic suture was superior to bipolar coagulation when evaluating serum AMH and AFC, in the 1st, 3rd, 6th and 12th month after surgery. In the comparison between bipolar and hemostatic sealants, the results favored the use of hemostatic agents. The use of ultrasonic energy was not superior to the use of bipolar energy.
Conclusion We recommend suture for hemostasis during laparoscopic cystectomy.

ABSTRACT
Bilberry has been reported to have anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. We studied the effect of bilberry (Vaccinium myrtillus L.) fruits extracts (BEs) on the pathogenesis caused by lipid accumulation in fatty liver and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). 5 μg/ml of BEs was enough to suppress lipid accumulation in the fatty liver model of the mouse hepatic AML12 cells. BEs increased cell viability and anti-oxidant capacity, presumably by activating (phosphorylating) Akt/STAT3 and inducing MnSOD/catalase. BEs also significantly reduced Rubicon and induced p62/SQSTM1, possibly contributing to reduce cellular lipids (lipophagy). When the mice were fed supplemented with BEs (5% or 10%, w/w), hepatic steatosis, injury, and hypercholesterolemia/hyperglycemia were significantly improved. Furthermore, histological and cytokine studies indicated that BEs possibly suppress hepatic inflammation (hepatitis) and fibrosis. Therefore, BEs improved liver steatosis and injury, and potentially suppress fibrosis by suppressing inflammatory response, which therefore may prevent the progression of fatty liver to NASH.

Factors Influencing Senior High School Students’ Environmental Knowledge
Authors: Yusup Febrianawati 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
The current environmental crisis is the result of human mis-perceptions to the environment. The most important way to educate people about environmental issues is through environmental education. Only individual who has the environmental literacy will contribute in handling environmental problems. One component of environmental literacy is environmental knowledge. Environmental knowledge is formed by many factors, both internal and external factors. This paper explains the relationship between students’ environmental knowledge to gender, duration of environmental education, and parent’s education background. The survey was conducted using “Environmental Biology Cognitive Ability Assessment Instrument” to senior high school science program students (N = 192). It was found that duration of environmental education correlated with environmental knowledge. However, there is no difference between gender and parent’s education background. The learning duration shows the amount of delivered materials. Results suggest that to improve environmental knowledge can be through learning in school by adding learning materials.
