New uses of music: an analysis based on indie music in Buenos Aires
Authors: Boix Ornela 
Published: February 2019

During the 2000s, the term “indie” became common and relatively principal for the juvenile, urban music of the metropolitan area of Buenos Aires. How can we understand the indie phenomenon in the history of juvenile music related to Argentine rock bands? What variables should we take into consideration to comprehend indie since its logic differs from the one established by the identitarian appropriation of music genres? In order to answer these questions, we describe indie music in Buenos Aires and show its evolution. We suggest that indie is much more than a way in which people identify themselves with music. It is the manifestation of a new relation with music and its means of production. In line with this idea, we explore the most recent pragmatic approach to “music into action” and music as mediator of the social to reformulate the notion of music to use. *** Novos usos da música: Uma análise baseada na música indie em Buenos Aires ***Durante a década de 2000, a palavra “indie” era comum e relativamente central para a música juvenil e urbana da zona metropolitana de Buenos Aires. Como entender o fenômeno indie na história de músicas juvenis associadas ao rock na Argentina? Com quais parâmetros compreendê-lo, já que se trata de um fenômeno que escapa à apropriação identitária dos gêneros musicais? Para responder estas perguntas descrevemos a música indie em Buenos Aires e mostramos sua evolução. Afirmamos que o indie é muito mais uma forma de fazer do que se identificar com a música. Nesse sentido, é a manifestação de um novo relacionamento com a música e a produção de música. Para tanto tem sido necessário explorar o discurso pragmático sobre a “música como ação” e sobre a música como mediadora do social que habilitava este olhar sobre o indie. Analisando deste modo, reformulamos o conceito de música de uso.Palavras-chave: Música indie; Usos da música; Identidade; Abordagem pragmática; Buenos Aires.

Published: February 2019

Purpose: In this study, we aimed to show the most related factors with women's anxiety and depression levels as well find out the differences between primary and secondary infertile women with unexplained reason. Materials and Methods: This was a prospective controlled study of 166 primary and 60 secondary infertile women. They had unexplained infertility and had not any hormonal or uterine pathology. Beck Depression Inventory and Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale were used for questionnaire. Results: While there were not any differences between two groups for anxiety and depression scores as well for subgroups, secondary infertile women showed a higher rate of severe depression than primary infertile women (11/60 vs. 10/166). While patients' age was correlated with anxiety score, number of treatment attempts was correlated with depression score.Conclusion: Infertility treatment does not have only physical side effects but it has also a psychological burden for women. While having a child is very important for some cultures it may not decrease the stress of women who started infertility treatment and wanted to have more. It is important to support the women who undergo infertility treatment whether is primary or secondary infertile, while this affects the patient's mood positively as well may increase the success of treatment.

Published: February 2019

Purpose: Fasting during Ramadan is a religious obligation for Muslims. Extended fasting can create undesirable acute complications of diabetes such as hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the impact of fasting on glucose regulation in diabetic patients who fast during Ramadan.Materials and Methods: Patients were informed about the possible side effects of fasting for them and those who stated that they will be fasting during Ramadan were called one month after Ramadan. In this retrospective cohort study by telephone interview, the number of fasting days, daily measurements of glucose, the number of acute complications if existed and whether the patients have changed their treatments were asked.Results: Forty six patients were included in this study. Mean age was 54.3±9.5 yr. The average fasting day was 25.24±2.4. They were categorized according to the risk stratifications. The number of hypoglycemic events was not higher than detected six months prior to the Ramadan. Most of the patients had hyperglycemia rather than hypoglycemia. All of the patients who had hypo-or hyperglycemia did not interrupt their fasting and did not change their medications. Conclusion: Patients who fasted during Ramadan have a tendency both hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia. To improve glycemic regulation and keep these patients in a safe and acceptable glucose range, Pre-Ramadan education is necessary.

Published: February 2019

Abstract. Eggs are characterized with other components such antioxidants, folic acid and other B vitamins, and unsaturated fats which might have beneficial effects on heart disease risk that counterbalance the small adverse effect of the eggs’ cholesterol content. A specific study of the effect of chicken egg and/or duck egg in biscuit production has allowed the determination of their respective effects on baking, chemical and sensorial properties. Five sample blends of chicken and duck eggs were made respectively from the following ratios: 0, 10:90, 20:80, 30:70, 40:60 and 50:50%, respectively. Baking and nutritional properties of samples of biscuit were determined by standard methods, while sensory evaluation was also carried out. The results on the biscuit samples revealed the following ranges: baking properties (weight 14.53-14.85g, diameter 48.4-50.04mm, thickness 9.37-9.46mm, bulk density 0.61 to 0.82g/cm3 and spread ratio 5.12-5.37; proximate parameters (moisture 3.22-4.78%, ash 0.64-1.74%, fibre 0.49-0.51%, protein 9.4-12.9%, fat 15.8-19.2%, carbohydrate 62.4-68.8% and energy 397.67-411.85kcal/g). Biscuit samples contained varying amounts of calcium, phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, zinc and iron. Baking properties showed a decrease in the weight and thickness but increase in diameter and spread ratio of the biscuits with rising levels of substitution. . The chemical analysis results revealed that biscuit samples containing different levels of duck egg had significantly higher fat, ash and protein content but lower moisture and carbohydrate than the control. Mineral concentration was significantly affected (p≤0.05) by the substitution with duck egg in the biscuit formulations. The substitution of chicken egg with duck egg at a level of up to 40% produces biscuit without any negative effect in quality attributes and reasonable acceptance. Conclusively, the substitution of chicken egg with duck egg in biscuit production is an ideal approach to utilizing uncommon food ingredients. The use of duck egg produced biscuit with different characteristics and quality, depending on level of inclusion in the formulation, offering nutritious and healthy alternative to consumers.

Authors: Gupta Ashish , Kumar Vinod 
Published: February 2019

Background: Newborn hearing screening is conducted to identify suspected hearing loss and not to confirm the presence/absence of hearing loss or define features of the loss. Speech and hearing are interrelated, i.e., a problem with one could mean a problem with the other as speech and language is acquired normally through auditory system.Methods: A descriptive study conducted in the Department of Paediatrics, Dr. S. N. Medical College, Jodhpur, from June 2016 to December 2017. 5000 neonates were screened using otoacoustic emissions (OAE) in 2 stages at birth during 3rd to 7th day and 15-30 days respectively, followed by BERA at 3 months of age.Results: 1.4 infants per thousand infants had hearing loss. Presence of high-risk factors was seen to be associated be associated with hearing loss more than normal infants on screening with distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAE) tests. However, on testing with BERA no such association was seen.Conclusions: 1.4 per 1000 infants had hearing loss. This study has shown that two stage distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAE) hearing screening followed by british educational research association (BERA) to confirm the hearing deficit, can be successfully implemented as new born hearing screening method in a hospital set-up, for early detection of hearing impaired, on a large scale, to achieve the high-quality standard of screening programs in a resource limited and developing nation like India.

Published: February 2019

<p class="abstract">Thyroid abscess is rare due to certain anatomical and physiological characteristics of the thyroid gland. Thyroid abscess can occur due to spread of flora in the upper respiratory tract to perithyroid space and thyroid gland through fistula. We are reporting case of thyroid abscess where the infecting pathogen was <em>E. coli</em>. USG and guided FNAC are simple and first line investigations. However there can be abscess formation following FNAC in immune compromised patients. A 50 years old man presented to us with complaints of fever and swelling over the left anterior aspect of neck of 10 days duration. It was associated with pain during swallowing. Ultrasound is investigation of choice as it does not have ionizing radiation, gives a good exposure of thyroid gland, show heterogeneous echo texture and superimposition of abscess is present. It can also show vascularity and internal haemorrhage. Patient was a case of undetected and uncontrolled diabetes mellitus which might have predisposed him to suppurative thyroiditis. Timely detection and surgical debridement of necrosed tissue and specific antibiotic treatment with management of diabetes helped him recover from this life threatening condition.</p>
