Authors: Pinther Steven , Deeb Robert , Peterson Edward L. , Standring Robert T. , Craig John R. 
Published: July 2019

Background When chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) fails to respond to medical therapy, endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) plays an integral role in management. Some studies have shown that middle turbinate resection (MTR) during ESS leads to decreased polyp recurrence and revision ESS rates. Other studies suggest MTR can lead to complications. Objective The purpose of this study was to assess the safety of MTR during ESS for CRSwNP by determining the incidences of intraoperative cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak, postoperative epistaxis requiring operative intervention, and postoperative complete frontal stenosis. Methods A multiinstitutional, prospective case series of 91 adult CRSwNP patients was conducted. Patients with medically refractory CRSwNP underwent primary or revision ESS plus MTR by 3 surgeons. Two of the surgeons performed partial MTRs, and one of the surgeons performed complete MTRs. Patients were evaluated for the following complications: intraoperative CSF leak during MTR, postoperative epistaxis requiring operative intervention, and postoperative complete frontal ostial stenosis. Secondary outcomes included changes from preoperative to postoperative 22-item Sinonasal Outcome Test (SNOT-22) scores and revision ESS rates. Results Unilateral or bilateral complete ESSs with MTRs were performed on 91 CRSwNP patients. In total, 173 MTRs were performed. Two surgeons performed 97 partial MTRs on 49 patients, and the third surgeon performed 76 complete MTRs on 42 patients. One CSF leak occurred during partial MTR (1/173, 0.57%). No patients suffered postoperative epistaxis requiring operative intervention, and no patients developed complete frontal stenosis. From preoperatively to postoperatively, mean SNOT-22 scores decreased from 53.7 to 13.1 ( P = .001). No revision ESS was needed during the follow-up period. Mean follow-up time was 7.5 ± 5.4 months. Conclusions Partial and complete MTR during ESS for CRSwNP in this cohort resulted in very low, acceptable intraoperative and short-term postoperative complication rates and no detriment to SNOT-22 scores.

Published: July 2019

Introduction European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation (EuroSCORE) was developed to identify patients who may have a greater postoperative risk for adverse effects following adult cardiac surgery. This study evaluated the discriminatory potential of using the EuroSCORE system in predicting the early, as well as late, postoperative outcomes following coronary artery bypass graft surgery in Bangladesh. Methods A total of 865 patients who underwent isolated coronary artery bypass graft surgery were evaluated with the EuroSCORE risk scoring system. Moreover, we also compared the discriminatory potentials between the EuroSCORE II and the original logistic EuroSCORE. Results Operative mortality was best predicted by EuroSCORE II (area under the curve (AUC) 0.863, Brier score 0.030) compared to the original logistic EuroSCORE (AUC 0.849, Brier score 0.033). However, the overall expected-to-observed mortality ratio for EuroSCORE II was 1.1, whereas the observed ratio for the original logistic EuroSCORE was 1.7. EuroSCORE II was predictive of an intensive care unit stay of five days or more (AUC 0.786), prolonged inotropes use (AUC 0.746), stroke (AUC 0.646), de novo dialysis (AUC 0.810), and low output syndrome (AUC 0.715). Moreover, a high EuroSCORE II quintile significantly predicted the risk for late mortality (p < 0.0001). Conclusions EuroSCORE has an important role in predicting the early, as well as late, postoperative outcomes following coronary artery bypass surgery. However, the performance of EuroSCORE II is significantly better than the original logistic EuroSCORE in predicting postoperative morbidity and mortality after isolated coronary artery bypass graft surgery among Bangladeshi patients.

Abstract
Background
Toxoplasmosis is a zoonotic parasitic disease caused by Toxoplasma gondii, a widespread protozoan in the phylum Apicomplexa. In Europe, several studies have demonstrated the presence of the parasite in tissues of wild boars (Sus scrofa), but no data exists on the T. gondii load in tissues which in turn may be an useful way to assess the infection risk for the consumer of wild boar meat.

Methods
We sampled and tested a total of 472 tissue samples of brain, heart and masseter muscle from 177 wild boars from the Campania region of southern Italy by real-time PCR analyses for detection and quantification of T. gondii. The sensitivity and specificity of the method were calculated by ROC analysis curves.

Results
PCR analysis revealed the presence of T. gondii in tissue samples of 78 out of 177 (44%) wild boars. In general, the brain presented the highest PCR prevalence (31%), followed by the heart (28.3%) and the masseter muscle (24.2%), with the highest estimated parasite numbers observed in the brain followed by the heart and masseter muscle. The PCR method showed an excellent discriminating ability for each of the examined tissues. According to the ROC analysis curves, the respective sensitivity and specificity were 99 and 100% for masseter muscle, 98 and 98% for brain and 96 and 98% for heart samples.

Conclusions
The high prevalence of infection here detected suggests a widespread distribution of the parasite in the wildlife of the Campania region of southern Italy. The T. gondii burdens detected may potentially represent a source of infection for humans.

AbstractContextAfter Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery, postprandial plasma glucagon concentrations have been reported to increase. This occurs despite concomitant improved glucose tolerance and increased circulating plasma concentrations of insulin and the glucagon-inhibiting hormone glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1).ObjectiveTo investigate whether RYGB-induced hyperglucagonemia may be derived from the gut.Design and SettingSubstudy of a prospective cross-sectional study at a university hospital in Copenhagen, Denmark.ParticipantsMorbidly obese individuals undergoing RYGB (n = 8) with or without type 2 diabetes.InterventionsThree months before and after RYGB, participants underwent upper enteroscopy with retrieval of gastrointestinal mucosal biopsy specimens. Mixed-meal tests were performed 1 week and 3 months before and after RYGB.Main Outcome MeasuresThe 29–amino acid glucagon concentrations in plasma and in mucosal gastrointestinal biopsy specimens were assessed using mass spectrometry–validated immunoassays, and a new monoclonal antibody reacting with immunoreactive glucagon was used for immunohistochemistry.ResultsPostprandial plasma concentrations of glucagon after RYGB were increased. Expression of the glucagon gene in the small intestine increased after surgery. Glucagon was identified in the small-intestine biopsy specimens obtained after, but not before, RYGB. Immunohistochemically, mucosal biopsy specimens from the small intestine harbored cells costained for GLP-1 and immunoreactive glucagon.ConclusionIncreased concentrations of glucagon were observed in small-intestine biopsy specimens and postprandially in plasma after RYGB. The small intestine harbored cells immunohistochemically costaining for GLP-1 and glucagon-like immunoreactivity after RYGB. Glucagon derived from small-intestine enteroendocrine l cells may contribute to postprandial plasma concentrations of glucagon after RYGB.
Cell competition: the winners and losers of fitness selection
Authors: Bowling Sarah , Lawlor Katerina , Rodríguez Tristan A. 
Published: July 2019

ABSTRACTThe process of cell competition results in the elimination of cells that are viable but ‘less fit’ than surrounding cells. Given the highly heterogeneous nature of our tissues, it seems increasingly likely that cells are engaged in a ‘survival of the fittest’ battle throughout life. The process has a myriad of positive roles in the organism: it selects against mutant cells in developing tissues, prevents the propagation of oncogenic cells and eliminates damaged cells during ageing. However, ‘super-fit’ cancer cells can exploit cell competition mechanisms to expand and spread. Here, we review the regulation, roles and risks of cell competition in organism development, ageing and disease.

Published: July 2019

Hendy Pradika, Moediyono, in paper thermal overload relay as a overload safety in miniature of substation based on programmable logic controller (PLC) CP1E-E40DR-A explain that at the substation there is a protective device that is very vital function, which we often refer breaker Power (PMT) or also called Circuit Breaker (CB). The function of the PMT itself is to connect or disconnect current / power corresponding branches if there is interference in substations or other transmission device or in the event of overload. At the substation's miniature PMT function is replaced by a contactor that functions more or less the same. Contactor performance is governed by OMRON CP1E PLC-E40DR-A which had previously received input from the Thermal Overload Relay in the event of overload. Thermal Overload Relay works on the principle of expansion and bimetal objects. When exposed to high current object, then the object will expand so it will bend and break the current. Excessive current will generate heat, so it can bend bimetal.Hal object will cause the contactor is connected to the Thermal Overload Relay will decide the electric current through the contactor. With this tool, we can realize the expected electric power system more secure in terms of security and reliability so as not to harm humans and the environment.

Published: July 2019

Persediaan bahan baku merupakan aktifitas yang penting dalam proses produksi. Pada makalah ini, model mempertimbangkan kuantitas dan periode pemesanan. Dalam model ini, pembeli tunggal membeli beberapa bahan baku dari satu pemasok. Permintaan bahan baku bersifat deterministik dan bervariasi untuk periode waktu. Selain itu, biaya pesan dan biaya simpan untuk periode perencanaan adalah tetap. Kami telah mengembangkan model pemrograman dinamis untuk mengatasi masalah ini. Model pemrograman dinamis ini dikembangkan dari algoritma Wagner-Whitin. Model program dinamis yang diusulkan mempertimbangkan multi item dan kendala kapasitas gudang. Untuk menguji performa dari model, peneliti melakukan beberapa percobaan numerik. Hasil percobaan numerik model pemrograman dinamis usulan menunjukan total biaya persediaan lebih optimal dibandingkan dengan metode EOQ. Hasil percobaan ini menunjukkan model usulan efektif minimasi total biaya persediaan. AbstractInventory of raw materials is an essential activity in the production process. In this paper, the model considers the quantity and order period. In this model, a single buyer buys several raw materials from one supplier. The demand for raw materials is deterministic and varies for a period of time. Besides, the message costs and save costs for the planning period are fixed. We have developed dynamic programming models to overcome this problem. This dynamic programming model was developed from the Wagner-Whitin algorithm. The proposed dynamic program model considers multi items and warehouse capacity constraints. To test the performance of the model, researchers conducted some numerical experiments. The numerical experimental results of the dynamic programming model suggest that the total inventory cost is more optimal compared to the EOQ method. The results of this experiment indicate the proposed model effectively minimizes the total cost of inventory.Keywords: Multi Item; Inventory; Wagner Whitin; Warehouse Constraints; Dynamic Programming
