Measuring plasma ferritin levels with two different methods: A comparison of roche cobas E601 versus roche cobas C501 (integrated modular system roche cobas 6000)
Authors: Ayan Durmuş , Soylemez Sibel 
Published: January 2019

Summary
Background
The aim of our study is to compare plasma ferritin levels found to be high or low in terms of reference range by means of electrochemiluminescence (ECLIA) and immunoturbidimetric method and to examine whether they can be used interchangeably.
Methods
84 patients with high plasma ferritin level and 153 patients with low ferritin level according to the reference range were included in the study. Plasma samples measured in Cobas e601 device with ECLIA were also measured as immunoturbidimetric Cobas c501 device. For method comparison, CLSI EP9-A3 Guideline was used. While the consistency between the methods were specified with Passing-Bablok regression analysis and Spearman cor relation analysis, bias error between the methods (bias%) was determined through Bland-Altman analysis.
Results
Both high and low plasma ferritin levels measured with Cobas e601 module and determined high in terms of reference range were compared with the results found with cobas c501 module. The difference was found to be statistically significant (p<0.001). According to regression and correlation (for low plasma ferritin levels; r: 0.993, p<0.001, for high plasma ferritin levels; r: 0.966, p<0.001) results, the methods were in consistency with each other. Additionally, while the bias% value was found to be 10.4% for low plasma ferritin levels, it was found to be 12.6% for high ferritin levels.
Conclusions
Accordingly, we believe that, comparison with more samples especially in terms of different clinical decision levels is required in order to examine inter changeable use of immunoturbidimetric method in integrated devices and ECLIA.

SummaryBackgroundPolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common female endocrine disorders around the world. Increasing evidence suggests that neurotransmitter Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is involved in the pathogenesis of PCOS through its central role in the hypothalamus. However, the peripheral role of GABA in PCOS has not been sufficiently investigated in spite of its existence in peripheral organs. First, the aim of this study is to, investigate serum GABA level in Egyptian PCOS patients. Second, to explore the correlation between serum GABA level with Body Mass Index (BMI), dyslipidemia, totaltestosterone and 25 (OH) vitamin D.MethodsEighty PCOS patients and eighty age-matched healthy females were included in this study. All parameters were assessed colourimetrically or with ELISA.ResultsPCOS patients exhibited significantly decreased serum GABA level compared to controls (p < 0.001). There was a significant positive correlation between serum GABA and 25(OH) vitamin D levels (r = 0.26, p = 0.018), and a significant negative correlation with total testosterone (r = - 0.3, p = 0.02), total cholesterol (TC) (r = - 0.31, p = 0.01) and LDL-Cholesterol (LDL-C) (r = - 0.23, p = 0.045), respectively.ConclusionsThe findings of this study suggest that disrupted GABA level in the peripheral circulation is an additional contributing factor to PCOS manifestations. GABA deficiency was correlated with 25 (OH) vitamin D deficiency, dyslipidemia, and total testosterone. Further investigations for GABA adjustment might provide a promising means for better management of PCOS symptoms.

Penelitian ini bertujuan mengembangkan varian modelVRP untuk menyusun rute angkutan umum penumpang. Sebagai bahan pertimbangan adalah karakteristik rutenya tertutup yang berawal dan berakhir pada terminal atau pangkalan yang sama, karakteristik pelanggannya deterministik dengan volume permintaan layanan tetap dan dalam kurun waktu saturound trip tertentu, serta karakteristik kendaraan yang dioperasikan memiliki variasi kapasitas dan biaya operasi. Rute disusun untuk memperoleh efisiensi biaya operasional yang optimal, setiap jalur yang ada dalam jaringan pelayanan dilewati tepat satu kali dengan alasan pemberian frekuensi layanan yang sama untuk setiaplink pergerakan penumpang. Penyusunan rute dilakukan melalui dua tahap, yaitu tahap inisialisasi dengan pendekatan metoda Nearest Addition atau Nearest Neighborhood Heuristic dan tahap perbaikan dengan pendekatan metoda Genetic Algorithm. Model ini belum mempertimbangkan adanya pola rute dengan naik-turun penumpang yang dinamis, serta kecepatan dan waktu tempuh kendaraan yang bersifat stokastik, permintaan pergerakan penumpang setiap jalur yang bersifat stokastik, ataupun jumlah pelabuhan dalam jaringan pelayanan yang bersifat stokastik. Sehingga membuka peluang penelitian lebih lanjut. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dengan penyusunan ulang rute pelayanan kapal-kapal milik PELNI, total biaya operasional seluruh kapal dapat ditekan jauh lebih efisien hingga mencapai 64,38% dari total biaya aktual. Sedangkan dari sisi total jarak tempuh, dapat ditekan lebih efektif hingga mencapai 59,64% dari total jarak tempuh aktual.

PAULUS: Revista de Comunicação da FAPCOM
Authors: Editora Paulus 
Published: January 2019

A revista recebe o nome de um dos grandes pensadores do mundo ocidental, Paulo de Tarso. Paulo (Paulus) é o sujeito que pensa o acontecimento e sua relação com a vida. Vive a experiênciade estar num mundo plural, expõe-se a dialogar com os intelectuais de seu tempo, encontrando-se com os de fora, com os diferentes, com as culturas e a fé. É um pensador das fronteiras e do universal. Paulo, acima de tudo, foi um amante e buscador ousado da verdade. A Faculdade Paulus de Tecnologia e Comunicação – FAPCOM – nasce do espírito paulino, porque inspirada no apóstolo Paulo estabelece para si a missão de pensar e ser referência na área da comunicação. A palavra comunicação tornou-se uma das mais conhecidas e repetidas à exaustão, dá o nome aos meios diversos de comunicação e no dia a dia aparece nos diálogos informais. Contudo, vale a pergunta:o que é a comunicação? Realmente as pessoas se comunicam? As tecnologias e seus aparatos podem realmente se comunicar? A revista propõe ser um espaço onde possa se discutir acadêmica e criticamente esse acontecimento fundamental que é a comunicação. O acontecimento da comunicação implica que este reluza nas fronteiras da filosofia e das tecnologias. A filosofia torna-se uma das principais áreas com as quais o acontecimento comunicacional deve dialogar, pois foi ela que pôs primeiro a questão do que é a comunicação. Outra fronteira são as tecnologias que, no mundo contemporâneo, fazem-se presentes em todos os processos da vida humana. O núcleo de atuação da revista estabelece o diálogo entre comunicação, filosofia e tecnologia, com abertura ao que ocorre na sociedade contemporânea e aos seus desafios. A posição assumida pela revista é a da criticidade. Para dar conta de tal desafio de diálogo com o acontecimento comunicacional, publicar-se-á um dossiê sobre o tema central de cada revista, elaboradopor um pesquisador sênior. Trará um artigo internacional de importância acadêmica que ajude a ampliar a discussão central do tema da revista. Os artigos compõem-se de rica produção acadêmica de doutores, pluralizando a visão sobre o assunto tratado. Uma entrevista feita por um pesquisador júnior ajudará a compor uma nova visão, outra perspectiva ao tema estudado. Fundamental será a resenha de obras nacionais ou internacionais de autores queajudem a pensar a comunicação. Por fim, a resenha da melhor tese desenvolvida na área de comunicação ou da filosofia. A FAPCOM e a Paulus Editora unem-se a este espírito e desejam consolidar a sua missão de pensar a comunicação.

Published: January 2019

Marrubium vulgare (Lamiaceae) is frequently used in traditional medicine to treat many illnesses from ancient times. Its beneficial effects include antibacterial, antioedematogenic, and analgesic activities. This study was designed to evaluate the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities of organic and aqueous extracts of the leaves, the flowers, the stems, and the roots of Marrubium vulgare. The total phenolic and flavonoid contents as well as the antioxidant and the anti-inflammatory effects of methanol, chloroform, ethyl acetate, and aqueous extracts have been investigated by using different in-vitro methods. It was found that the ethyl acetate extract from Marrubium vulgare stems had the highest total phenolic content, while the ethyl acetate extract from the leaves yielded a high concentration of flavonoids. The ethyl acetate extract from the stems exhibited the highest activity in scavenging of 2,2-diphenyl- 1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), as well as in protecting erythrocytes. The leaves aqueous extract exhibited the highest ferrous chelating activity and its methanolic extract was found to be the strongest inhibitor of lipid peroxidation in β-carotene bleaching assay. The leaves chloroform extracts as well as the flowers methanol, chloroform, and ethyl acetate extracts were found to decrease the pro-inflammatory tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) cytokine levels in a dose-dependent manner. On the other hand, the flowers methanolic extract and the leaves methanol, ethyl acetate, and aqueous extracts decreased the interleukin-1 beta (IL- 1β) release. It was also found that the methanol extract from the flowers and the chloroform extract from the stems of Marrubium vulgare inhibited interleukin-8 (IL-8) release.
This study provides a scientific basis for the traditional use of Marrubium vulgare as an anti-inflammatory agent and for the plant to be considered as an important resource of natural antioxidants.
