Abstract
In absence of clear clinical signs and clear definition, neonatal sepsis is still one of the major cause of morbidity and mortality. Most researchs in past time was directional on finding new biomarkers with greater sensitivity and specificity in detection of neonatal sepsis. The aim of our study was to investigate if presepsin obtained from tracheal asprate in intubated newborns, can be a novel biomarker of systemic bacterial infection. Our ‘’case control’’ study included 60 newborns, 11 with suspected neonatal sepsis. Tracheal aspirate for examination was taken in the usual toilets, in aseptic conditions, by lavage with 2 ml of 0.9% NaCl in Mucus suction set. In the same day were mesured presepsin (blood), CRP, PCT, leukocytes and neutrophyls, as well as blood culture. Our research showed higher levels for PCT and presepsin (blood) in septic newborns, as well as in newborns with clinical signs of SIRS. Presepsin obtained from a tracheal aspirate had high score for septic newborns. As the coefficients of simple linear correlation showed, there was quantitative agreement between presepsin (blood) with presepsin (tracheal aspirate)- increase in the value of one leads to an increase in other. In conjunction with an already validated markers of infection, presepsin obtained from tracheal aspirate cam be turned on in diagnostic procedures.
„Sprechen Sie Deutsch? A. Merkel Nori Daugiau Vokiečių Kalbos Europoje“ (Delfi, 19.06.2013): The Image of German in Lithuanian Media Discourse
Authors: Eidukevičienė Rūta 
Published: December 2018

Summary
The paper aims to analyze the attitudes to German language in the Lithuanian public discourse. Texts written on this topic and chosen for the analysis appeared in two news portals – the national news portal delfi.lt and the regional news portal kaunodiena.lt. The database covers the period from 1 January 2011 to 1 March 2017; it consists of 82 articles from both news portals. For studying the image of German, the present study applies the framework of Critical Discourse Analysis taking into account different argumentation strategies for learning or not learning German as a foreign language as well as main topical priorities. The general attitudes towards countries can serve as an important foundation for motivation to language learning, so the analysis starts with the discussion of the specifics attributed to Germany and German-speaking countries (effectiveness governing the world, sympathy, economic success, and reliability). The analysis of the selected texts confirms that the image of Germany in Lithuania is quite positive: Germany, especially on delfi.lt, is presented as a target country for qualified Lithuanian experts, as an economically stable country having a large degree of political and cultural influence in the world. Regarding the status of German, the analyzed texts reveal a more ambiguous picture: on the one hand, it is stated that German is not popular in Lithuania, on the other hand it is emphasized that the popularity of the German language is increasing. The argumentation scheme for learning German consists of several argumentation lines: German is represented as a commodity in such domains as a professional career in Germany, in dealing with bilateral business relations, and to some extent in building a professional career in one’s home country and upholding cultural relations.

Why Fundamentalism?
Authors: Cowden Stephen , Sahgal Gita , Cowden Stephen , Sahgal Gita 
Published: December 2018

This article is intended to generate a discussion about religious fundamentalism. We begin by proposing a definition and arguing for the value of ‘fundamentalism’ as an analytical category that allows the understanding of common political discourses, interventions and practices across different religions and diverse contexts. We then delineate key components of fundamentalist movements, looking in particular at the construction of a neo-patriarchal political order as a key objective.
We then move to trying to understand why fundamentalism has emerged at this particular point in time. We argue that the weakening of a commitment to a secular politics has occurred through the convergence of several related factors. Firstly we see the crisis of both ‘progressive’ versions of nationalism as well as of the political Left (locally and internationally) as having provided a major opportunity for religious fundamentalism, which it has adeptly occupied. Secondly fundamentalists have interpolated the massively disruptive social changes caused by neoliberal globalisation taking place particularly but not exclusively in the developing world. Thirdly we see intellectual understanding of the fundamentalist threat to human rights and women’s rights in particular has been significantly impeded by the rise of postmodernism and postcolonialism where the romanticisation of essentialised ‘other-identity’ claims has prevented the development of a critique of the fundamentalist agenda.

W artykule odpowiedziano twierdząco na pytanie badawcze „Czy przeciwdziałanie skutkom klęsk żywiołowych w gminie miejsko-wiejskiej Lewin Brzeski jest skuteczne z uwzględnieniem dostępnych sił i środków”. Zweryfikowano także pozytywnie hipotezę „Zapobieganie negatywnym konsekwencjom klęsk żywiołowych na obszarze gminy miejsko-wiejskiej Lewin Brzeski jest skuteczne z uwzględnieniem dostępnych sił i środków”. Zakres przestrzenny analizy dotyczył gminy miejsko-wiejskiej Lewin Brzeski. Zakres czasowy analizy obejmował lata 2010–2016. Do metod badawczych należały analiza literatury i dokumentacji organizacyjnej, inwentaryzacja i wywiad w terenie, studia przypadków oraz metoda kartograficzna.W wyniku przeprowadzonej analizy można wyciągnąć następujące wnioski: „Plan zarządzania kryzysowego gminy Lewin Brzeski” i „Plan operacyjny ochrony przed powodzią” stwarzają warunki do skutecznego przeciwdziałania skutkom powodzi. Władze gminy Lewin Brzeski skutecznie wykorzystują planowanie przestrzenne do ograniczania skutków powodzi na badanym obszarze. Od października 2010 do października 2014 r. na analizowanym terenie prowadzono inwestycję pn. „Poprawa ochrony przeciwpowodziowej Lewina Brzeskiego na rzece Nysa Kłodzka”. Miała na celu poprawę skuteczności ochrony przeciwpowodziowej w gminie Lewin Brzeski. Zdaniem autorów jej uzupełnieniem mogłoby być np. wykorzystanie stawów pożwirowych do odprowadzania zbyt dużej ilości wody przepływającej w Nysie Kłodzkiej.

BACKGROUND: Numerous techniques had been proposed to reduce radiation exposure in computed tomography (CT) including the use of radiation shielding. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to evaluate efficacy of using a bismuth breast shield and optimized scanning parameter to reduce breast absorbed doses from CT thorax examination. METHODS: Five protocols comprising the standard CT thorax clinical protocol (CP1) and four modified protocols (CP2 to CP5) were applied in anthropomorphic phantom scans. The phantom was configured as a female by placing a breast component on the chest. The breast component was divided into four quadrants, where 2 thermoluminescence dosimeters (TLD-100) were inserted into each quadrant to measure the absorbed dose. The bismuth shield was placed over the breast component during CP4 and CP5 scans. RESULTS: The pattern of absorbed doses in each breast and quadrant were approximately the same for all protocols, where the 4th quadrant > 3rd quadrant > 2nd quadrant > 1st quadrant. The mean absorbed dose value in CP3 was reduced to almost 34% of CP1’s mean absorbed dose. It was reduced even lower to 15% of CP1’s mean absorbed dose when the breast shield was used in CP5. CONCLUSION: This study showed that CT radiation exposure on the breast could be reduced by using a bismuth shield and low tube potential protocol without compromising the image quality.

İletişim
doyumu kavramı, iletişim ile memnuniyet arasındaki ilişki üzerine yapılan çok
çeşitli araştırmalar sonucunda ortaya çıkmış bir kavram olup; artması
çalışanların örgütsel düzeyde pozitif tutum sergilemesine katkıda bulunmaktadır.
Bu çalışmanın amacı, iletişim doyumunun pozitif ses çıkartma davranışını
pozitif yönde etkileyip etkilemediğini belirlemek ve bununla birlikte pozitif
örgütsel davranış literatürüne katkı sağlamaktır. Bu çalışma tanımlayıcı bir
araştırma olup anket tekniği kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışanların
iletişim doyum düzeylerini tespit etmek amacıyla Downs ve Hazen’in geliştirdiği
”İletişim Doyumu Ölçeği” ve pozitif ses çıkartma düzeylerini belirlemek
amacıyla, Maynes ve Podsakoff ’un geliştirdiği ve Çankır tarafından Türkçe

Published: December 2018

Background: Fibroadenoma is a common benign breast disorder in young women which has a low risk of malignant transformation. Most fibroadenomas present as a single mass, but the presence of multiple fibroadenomas can be seen in 15–20% of patients, with average number of 3–4 masses in one breast. In different studies and reports, various treatment modalities-including observation and follow up, surgery, radiofrequency ablation, etc- have been proposed, though the best management for these patients are not determined yet.
Case presentation: We present the case of 33-year-old female with history of multiple bilateral benign breast lesions with a presumptive diagnosis of fibroadenomas. She had three previous surgical excisions in the past 14 years. Her case was presented to a breast MDT meeting to obtain a recommendation on appropriate management.
Question: The proposed a question in MDT concerned the best and most appropriate management plan for the patient; Does she require further surgical excisions? And if not, how should she be followed?
Conclusion: After reviewing past medical history, physical examination, and all documents regarding the patient, MDT members recommended that the patient should be managed with close follow up with physical examination and ultrasound every 6 months. The necessity of further surgical intervention would be determined according to any new findings.

Published: December 2018

المقدمة
تتعامل الجهات الضريبية في مختلف دول العالم بأساليب عديدة لجباية الضرائب من المكلفين بغض النظر عن فئات وأصناف هؤلاء المكلفين،وفي العراق تم اعتماد العديد من الأساليب لجباية الضرائب على امتداد المدد الزمنية المتعاقبة،وكان لأسلوب التقدير الذاتي وهو أحد تلك الأساليب مجالاً للتطبيق خلال مدة زمنية معينة،حيث جرى تطبيق هذا الأسلوب على وحدات اقتصادية معينة، وبالرغم من المساوئ التي قد ترافق تطبيق هذا الأسلوب فإن له مزايا عديدة تجعله يصلح للتطبيق بعد نشر الوعي الضريبي بأهمية وفوائد هذا الأسلوب، والتوعية بدعم الجهات المساندة للتشجيع على تطبيقه ومن هذه الجهات نقابة المحاسبين والمدققين وديوان الرقابة المالية
ومكاتب التدقيق و....الخ.
وللتدقيق مجال مهم في إنجاح تطبيق أسلوب التقدير الذاتي من قبل الهيئة العامة للضرائب، سواء أكان التدقيق داخلياً أم خارجياً، فالمدقق الداخلي له الدور المهم في إعطاء صورة حقيقية لواقع المكلفين الذين يقدمون إقراراتهم الضريبية وتوضيحها وتبريرها أمام إداراتهم الضريبية.
وكذا الحال بالنسبة للمدقق الخارجي فإن تلك الإقرارات لا تُعتَمد من قبل الهيئة إلا بعد المصادقة عليها من قبل المدقق الخارجي أي مراقب الحسابات، وهذا ما يجعل المسؤولية تضامنية بين المكلف والهيئآت الضريبية والمدققين.
ولأجل توضيح ما لهذا الأسلوب من أهمية في تحديد الوعاء الضريبي للمكلف ،وما للجهود التي يبذلها المدققون في إنجاح هذا الأسلوب،كان لا بد من إبراز ذلك في ستة محاور، تضمن الأول المنهجية الخاصة بالبحث،أما المحور الثاني فيوضح أسلوب التقدير الذاتي، والثالث جاء بالدور الذي يؤديه التدقيق الداخلي في إنجاح هذا الأسلوب، أما الرابع فبين دور التدقيق الخارجي في إنجاح هذا الأسلوب، في حين إن المحور الخامس يوضح الجانب العملي للبحث حيث يبين أهمية هذا الأسلوب من خلال تكامل جهود المدققين في إنجاح تطبيقه في الهيئة العامة للضرائب،وجاء المحور السادس بالاستنتاجات والتوصيات الخاصة بالبحث.
