Nature of Poisson’s ratio of amorphous polymers and glasses and its relation to structure-sensitive properties
Authors: Sanditov D S 
Published: June 2019

Abstract
A review and analysis of studies concerning the nature of Poisson’s ratio μ of glassy systems are presented. The value of μ is a more pronounced structure-sensitive property than are elasticity moduli. The unique relation of μ to the Gröneisen parameter is substantiated. In this connection, the interrelation of harmonic (linear) and anharmonic (nonlinear) characteristics is discussed. Poisson’s ratio is a single-valued function of parameters characterizing dynamic properties and critical processes and is sensitive to the lattice dynamics and the atomic–molecular structure of glasses. The structural features of isotropic solids with the negative Poisson’s ratio (transverse deformation coefficient) are discussed.

This paper has two objectives. The first is to estimate the effect of health expenditure on life expectancy in regencies and cities in West Java Provinces. The second is to estimate the effect of the number of poor people on life expectancy in regencies and cities in West Java Provinces. Life expectancy is a measurement of the average time of human lives. This paper uses three-technique of Data Panel regression model: Pooled OLS, Fixed Effect Model and Random Effect Model. This paper uses Data Panel on 27 Regencies and Cities in West Java Provinces from 2014 to 2016. This paper use Life expectancy as the dependent variable, health expenditure and number of poor people as the independent variable. The result shows that Pooled OLS, Fixed Effect Model and Random Effect Model estimate the health expenditure has a positive and significant effect on life expectancy in regencies and cities in West Java Provinces. Pooled OLS and Random Effect Model technique estimate number of poor people has a negative and significant effect on life expectancy in regencies and cities in West Java Provinces.

Introduction: To report the profile of patients with floaters as a subjective complain in Saiful Anwar Hospital from July 2012 until June 2013.
Methods: an observasional descriptive study was conducted, collecting data on gender, age, subjective complain (floaters, flashes and subjective vision reduction), best corrected visual acuity and diagnose from patient’s medical record.
Result: 169 patients (215 eyes) were included in this study. Female patients contributed a higher percentage than male with mean of age was 49 years old. The subjective complain was floaters (67%), floater with blurred vision (22%), floater with flashes (6%) and patients with floaters, flashes, and blurred vision was 5%. Myopia was the most common refraction problem. Diagnose recorded from this study were posterior vitreous detachment (PVD) (34%), no abnormalities (13%), PDR (10%), RRD (9%), peripheral retinal degeneration (14%) retinal break (6%), corpus vitreous degeneration (3%), vitreous haemorhage (3%), posterior uveitis (2%) and others (6%).
Conclusion: The most common cause of floaters is PVD. Even it is usually a save condition but there are some condition with floater as a subjective complain which is threatening vision, so accurate eye examination from anterior to posterior segment were needed.

Working conditions of nurses in the Family Health Strategy
Authors: Celestino Lázaro Clarindo , Leal Laura Andrian , Rossi Rocha Fernanda Ludmilla , Henriques Silvia Helena 
Published: June 2019

Background: To describe the working conditions of the nurses of the Family Health Strategy, characterizing the forms and modalities of work contract, types of bond, working hours, benefits, career plan and salaries.
Method and Findings: Exploratory qualitative approach study. Participants were 18 nurses from the teams of the Family Health Strategy of a municipality in the countryside of Mina Gerais, Brazil. The data collection took place in July 2018 through interviews, using a script with closed questions. The Ethics Committee of the proposing Institution according to Official Letter 090/2018, CAAE 83419418.2.0000.5393, approved the study. Two forms of work contracts have been identified represented by the city hall and outsourced companies, the latter being the mode that offers the most benefits to workers. In addition, there was a lack of commensurate links, in addition to units with physical infrastructure that were compromised, lack of basic materials and supllies essential for the provision of care, absence of essential benefits for this category, insalubrity, commission for productivity, long journeys and overload of work, neglect and devaluation of the worker.
Conclusions: This study should promote the managers' reflection on the working conditions offered to nurses in basic care, rethinking management models that help them cope with problems related to their work context, stimulating a healthy environment, mitigating possible occupational risks that could compromise physical or mental health of the worker.
La mortalité en Allemagne et les séquelles des travailleurs requis : l’exemple ornais
Authors: Beuchet Sébastien 
Published: June 2019

Sébastien B euchet , La mortalité en Allemagne et les séquelles des travailleurs requis : l’exemple ornais Dès 1945, la mortalité des requis outre-Rhin et les séquelles des travailleurs rapatriés alimentent la mémoire victimaire du travail obligatoire en Allemagne et constituent les fondements de l’argumentaire militant de la Fédération Nationale des Déportés du Travail dans son combat pour la reconnaissance du titre de « Déporté du Travail ». Reposant sur l’analyse d’un groupe de STO ornais, une approche micro-historique de ces problématiques replacées dans une perspective nationale, permettra de s’interroger sur les caractéristiques de cette mortalité en Allemagne et sur les conséquences du travail forcé, à plus ou moins long terme, sur les corps et les esprits des anciens requis.
Les juifs de Pitigliano à l’épreuve des réformes éclairées : pour une histoire des conflits intracommunautaires (1744-1796)
Authors: Mano Davide 
Published: June 2019

Cette étude aborde les conflits intracommunautaires juifs en Italie au xviii e siècle en les reliant à la fois aux dynamiques propres des communautés juives en tant qu’institutions locales, et aux dispositifs politiques et juridiques qui organisaient la relation des juifs aux autorités étatiques. L’article interroge, dans un premier temps, la nature politique des conflits internes aux communautés juives dans le but d’éclairer la multiplicité des situations et la complexité des articulations condensées dans le fait juif. Dans un deuxième temps, il étudie les conflits internes à la communauté juive de Pitigliano, dans le grand-duché de Toscane, au cœur du moment réformiste toscan de 1744 à 1796. La multiplicité et la récurrence des conflits intracommunautaires juifs à Pitigliano reflètent des tendances sociales ayant trait à la crise des normativités traditionnelles et aux processus d’assimilation précoces. La saisie des autorités étatiques, qui suit l’impossibilité d’obtenir l’accord des chefs de la communauté, se révèle un instrument pour essayer de faire basculer, de manière transitoire, les rapports de force internes en vue d’un possible changement des hiérarchies communautaires.
Promouvoir la participation en co-formation avec les personnes concernées. Un souffle nouveau dans la formation des travailleurs sociaux…
Authors: Mari Laurence 
Published: June 2019

La participation des personnes reçues est le fil conducteur du Plan d’action en faveur du travail social et du développement social. Cette acculturation imposée aux travailleurs sociaux paraît être, dès le début, une nouvelle orientation à saisir en formation initiale en travail social. Après avoir défini les contours de la participation, l’auteur présente le déroulement de la séquence pédagogique qu’elle anime en lien avec ce concept, puis conclut par les apports épistémologiques de cette démarche.	La séquence pédagogique s’articule autour de td animés en co-formation entre des « experts du vécu » et une formatrice ; il s’agit d’intervenir dès le premier semestre de formation auprès d’étudiants assistants de service social. Après un travail sur les représentations, la participation est réfléchie à partir d’un cas pratique. L’apport de ces personnes à la formation des travailleurs sociaux est indéniable. En premier lieu, ces actions procurent beaucoup de plaisir : en tant que formatrice, elles offrent la possibilité d’innover dans ses pratiques, d’être plus créative. C’est l’occasion pour les étudiants de changer leur regard sur les personnes, de se déplacer d’une posture d’aide à celle d’une rencontre des autres pour partager un moment de plaisir, dans des positions d’égalité. En second lieu, ces personnes nous font sortir de nos modes de pensée, de l’aspect dogmatique de notre enseignement.	Un détour épistémologique conduit à envisager la place de la personne accompagnée dans trois types d’évaluation des pratiques qui peuvent se combiner : prospective (évaluation ex ante ), accompagner l’action (évaluation in itinere ) ou la suivre (évaluation ex post ). Ces modalités d’action pourraient être réfléchies tant dans l’intervention sociale individuelle que collective.
Effect of Corneal Cross-linking on Epithelial Hyperplasia and Myopia Regression After Transepithelial Photorefractive Keratectomy
Authors: Kang David Sung Yong , Kim Sun Woong 
Published: June 2019

PURPOSE:
To investigate the effect of accelerated corneal cross-linking (CXL) on epithelial thickness change and refractive outcome after myopic transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy (TPRK).

METHODS:
This study compared epithelial thickness changes in 49 patients undergoing TPRK-CXL with 49 patients undergoing TPRK who were matched for age and refractive error. Corneal epithelial thickness, obtained using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography preoperatively and 12 months postoperatively, was compared between the groups. Regression analysis was performed to investigate the association between changes in epithelial thickness and keratometric power. Factors affecting myopic regression (> 0.50 diopters] were evaluated using logistic regression analysis.

RESULTS:

For TPRK, the mean epithelial thickness of the center (2-mm diameter), paracenter (2- to 5-mm diameter), and pericenter (5- to 6-mm diameter) increased by 6.5 ± 3.1, 7.0 ± 2.9, and 4.9 ± 2.9 µm, respectively; increases of 4.8 ± 3.0, 5.9 ± 2.8, and 4.8 ± 2.7 µm were observed following TPRK-CXL, indicating a significant difference in the center (
P
= .013). Epithelial thickness increased linearly to the magnitude of myopic correction and was negatively correlated with the optical zone diameter of ablation. Change in epithelial thickness showed a linear correlation with the change in keratometric power between 1 and 12 months postoperatively, indicating regression in eyes following TPRK. Corneal epithelial thickening was significantly associated with myopic regression and simultaneous CXL tended to reduce the risk of regression.

CONCLUSIONS:
TPRK-CXL induces less epithelial hyperplasia than does TPRK, presumably owing to the effect of CXL, and the magnitude of epithelial thickening seemed to be associated with myopic regression.

Associations between health behaviour, secondary health conditions and quality of life in people with spinal cord injury
Authors: Mashola Mokgadi K. , Mothabeng Diphale J. 
Published: June 2019

Background: The development of secondary health conditions (SHCs) after spinal cord injury (SCI) is common and can affect an individual’s emotional well-being, and his or her health-related quality of life (QOL). Little is known about relationships between performing health-benefiting behaviours and the presence (or absence) of SHCs and QOL, particularly in South Africa.Objectives: This research study was conducted in order to determine the associations between health behaviour, SHCs and QOL in people with SCI (PWSCI).Method: This cross-sectional study included 36 PWSCI discharged from a private rehabilitation facility in Pretoria, South Africa. The PWSCI completed questionnaires pertaining to lifestyle, independence, presence of SHCs, social support and QOL. Data were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics such as correlation tests and chi-square test of independence (x2) using the SPSS v25. Moderate, moderately high and high correlations are reported (Pearson r ≥ 0.4). Results were significant if p 0.05.Results: Participation in health-benefiting behaviour was associated with increased QOL (r = 0.457, p 0.01) and increased social support from family and friends (r = 0.425, p 0.01), which was associated with increased QOL (r = 0.671, p 0.001). Not participating in specific neuromusculoskeletal health behaviours was found to be associated with the overall presence of SHCs (r = -0.426, p 0.01).Conclusions: Participating in health-benefiting behaviour can reduce the development of SHCs and subsequently increase QOL in PWSCI. Health professionals must focus on minimising the development of SHCs by providing specific education on good health-benefiting behaviour.
Risk of Gastrointestinal Bleed and Endoscopic Procedures on Antiplatelet and Antithrombotic Agents
Authors: Pal Partha , Tandan Manu , Reddy Duvvuru Nageshwar 
Published: June 2019

ABSTRACTThe use of antiplatelet and antithrombotic agents has increased hand in hand with the number and complexity of endoscopic procedures. Hence, the endoscopists are often faced with considering endoscopy in patients on these agents. In this setting, to make informed decision, four key aspects are need to be considered. The type of antithrombotic or antiplatelet agent used and its characteristics, risk of thromboembolic events (which can lead to ischemic stroke or acute coronary syndrome, both of which carry high morbidity) due to withholding the drug, risk of bleeding (increases with invasiveness of procedure), and timing of procedure (elective or urgent) are the key factors to consider. We aim to discuss the risk of gastrointestinal bleed and endoscopic procedures on antiplatelet and antithrombotic agents focusing on Indian context based on recent Asia?pacific guidelines along with other existing guidelines.

Published: June 2019

ABSTRACT
Background: Rigid sigmoidoscopy (RS) in the present era of flexible sigmoidoscopies is falling out of favor although it continues to be used in some centers as an outpatient (OP) department procedure. Aims: This study aims to determine the utility of RS for diagnosis of rectosigmoidal pathologies in the OP setting with emphasis on neoplastic lesions. Methods: We retrospectively studied the RS records and histopathology reports (HPRs) of 5 years (July 2013–June 2018) done in the Department of Gastroenterology at Medical College Calicut. Results: During the study period, 9418 RS examinations were done, and a total of 6921 abnormalities were picked up, giving a diagnostic yield of 73.5%. Most common indication was bleeding per rectum (PR) (51%), followed by constipation (29%). The most common lesion found was hemorrhoids 39.8% followed by proctitis 13.7%, neoplasms 9.7%, and others 10.3% while 26.5% studies were normal. HPRs showed 7.7% to be malignant, 5.8% were adenoma, 12.2% were inflammatory bowel disease ulcerative colitis (IBD UC), 2.2% were solitary rectal ulcer syndrome, 1.2% nonspecific colitis, 1.7% nonneoplastic polyps, 2.7% were normal, and 1.4% were inconclusive. Of the 4812 patients with complaints of bleeding PR, 4739 (98.5%) had a diagnosis after RS, of which hemorrhoids (72.7%) was the most common cause followed by proctitis (14.2%), neoplasm (9%), and others (4.1%). The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of RS in detecting neoplasia was 98.2%, 96.8%, 66.1%, and 99.9%, respectively, when HPR was gold standard. RS was found to be effective for assessing activity in IBD UC. Conclusion: RS is a simple, cheap, and effective tool for diagnosing various rectosigmoid pathologies. RS can be used as an effective screening test for rectosigmoid pathologies, especially neoplasia and IBD UC.

ABSTRACTPancreatic fluid collections are usually peripancreatic in location but can be found at various atypical locations such as the mediastinum. Mediastinal pseudocysts are very rare and are very unusual cause of dysphagia. Here, we report a rare case of mediastinal pseudocyst occuring because of pancreatic duct disruption due to chronic pancreatitis and presenting as dysphagia and successfully treated with endoscopic transpapillary stent placement.
The Revised Medical School Performance Evaluation: Does It Meet the Needs of Its Readers?
Authors: Brenner Judith M. , Arayssi Thurayya , Conigliaro Rosemarie L. , Friedman Karen 
Published: June 2019

ABSTRACT

Background
The Medical School Performance Evaluation (MSPE) is an important factor for application to residency programs. Many medical schools are incorporating recent recommendations from the Association of American Medical Colleges MSPE Task Force into their letters. To date, there has been no feedback from the graduate medical education community on the impact of this effort.

Objective
We surveyed individuals involved in residency candidate selection for internal medicine programs to understand their perceptions on the new MSPE format.

Methods
A survey was distributed in March and April 2018 using the Association of Program Directors in Internal Medicine listserv, which comprises 4220 individuals from 439 residency programs. Responses were analyzed, and themes were extracted from open-ended questions.

Results
A total of 140 individuals, predominantly program directors and associate program directors, from across the United States completed the survey. Most were aware of the existence of the MSPE Task Force. Respondents read a median of 200 to 299 letters each recruitment season. The majority reported observing evidence of adoption of the new format in more than one quarter of all medical schools. Among respondents, nearly half reported the new format made the MSPE more important in decision-making about a candidate. Within the MSPE, respondents recognized the following areas as most influential: academic progress, summary paragraph, graphic representation of class performance, academic history, and overall adjective of performance indicator (rank).

Conclusions
The internal medicine graduate medical education community finds value in many components of the new MSPE format, while recognizing there are further opportunities for improvement.
O problema da diferença antropológica na fenomenologia de Etienne Bimbenet
Authors: Marangoni Pedro Henrique Santos Decanini , Verissimo Danilo Saretta 
Published: June 2019

Neste artigo, apresentamos e discutimos as reflexões realizadas por Etienne Bimbenet (2014) e Maurice Merleau-Ponty (2006) em torno do problema da diferença antropológica, referente à comparação entre os comportamentos humanos e animais. Para estes autores, a ordem humana inaugura uma nova estrutura de comportamentos em relação à ordem vital. Tanto Merleau-Ponty como Bimbenet entendem que a vida animal e a vida humana são ordens originais que apresentam modos específicos de interação com o ambiente. A experiência animal nos revela uma orientação comportamental ditada por valores funcionais específicos que selecionam os estímulos dotados de um sentido para o organismo. Contudo, os autores reconhecem que a percepção humana é essencialmente distinta desta lógica de funcionamento, visto que a capacidade de desprendimento do próprio ponto de vista em direção a um mundo inter-subjetivo constitui-se como o traço fundamental da experiência humana.
Identifying agents of change: Simplification of possessive marking in Abui-Malay bilinguals
Authors: Saad George , Klamer Marian , Moro Francesca 
Published: June 2019

This paper investigates variation in possessive marking in Abui, a language spoken in a minority bilingual community in eastern Indonesia. Abui youngsters grow up acquiring both Abui (Papuan) and Alor Malay (Austronesian), but only become active speakers of Abui when they reach adolescence. Due to this delay, their Abui is expected to show signs of both imperfect acquisition and contact-induced effects. This language background makes them an interesting population on which to carry out a cross-sectional study on contact-induced variation. Abui distinguishes between a reflexive and non-reflexive possessive marker, while Alor Malay makes no such distinction. Combining methods from descriptive linguistics, bilingualism research, and variationist sociolinguistics, and using both a production and a comprehension task, we study the variation between four age-groups of Abui-Malay bilinguals: (pre-)adolescents, young adults, adults, and elders. Our results reveal that (pre-)adolescent males are the drivers of variation, and generalize the non-reflexive possessive marker to reflexive environments. This suggests that over the next decades the reflexive possessive prefix may be lost in Abui. This paper is a direct answer to a call by Ross (2013) to conduct in-depth variationist studies to establish more synchronically informed approaches to the study of language contact. In addition, by combining production and comprehension studies and applying them to an indigenous minority language, it expands the empirical support for a prominent hypothesis of bilingual processing: the Missing Surface Inflection Hypothesis (Prévost &amp; White 2000b).
