Authors: Buzeli Cintia Poleto , Costa Aldenan Lima Ribeiro Correa da , Ribeiro Rosa Lúcia Rocha 
Published: May 2017

Com este relato de experiência de uma mestranda e duas docentes do curso de pós-graduação em Enfermagem da Faculdade de Enfermagem da Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso, buscou-se refletir sobre a Terapia Comunitária (TC) como uma prática de cuidado coletivo oferecida a estudantes universitários. Nosso objetivo é relatar a experiência da realização de rodas de TC em ambiente acadêmico, oferecendo subsídios teórico-metodológicos para a estruturação e implementação desta prática de cuidado ao estudante universitário em outras universidades. Utilizou-se para coleta de dados a observação direta das rodas de TC, as vivências profissionais como enfermeiras e terapeutas comunitárias, e a apreciação de documentos como o formulário de registro dos encontros de TC preenchidos pelo Terapeuta e Co-terapeuta após cada rodade TC. A experiência relatada tem demonstrado a efetividade da TC para a promoção da saúde desse grupo, evidenciando sua importância como uma prática para o fortalecimento e criação de vínculos entre a comunidade acadêmica, pela constituição de redes solidárias entre os estudantes, por ser um espaço de fala e de escuta de seus sofrimentos, de valorização de sua vida e de suas potencialidades, de promoção da auto-estima e de estímulo ao desenvolvimento de uma consciência democrática e cidadã.

Authors: Insua Angel , Monje Alberto , Wang Hom‐Lay , Inglehart Marita 
Published: May 2017

Background: Patients undergoing dental treatment have an uncertain understanding about dental implant therapy and its complications. Therefore, the aims of this study assess the following: 1) level of knowledge, awareness, and attitudes about peri‐implantitis; 2) information provided by dentists/specialists who perform the treatment; and 3) perceptions, level of satisfaction, and impact on patient quality of life (QoL).Methods: Patients with implant restorative therapy currently undergoing peri‐implant maintenance therapy were recruited. Participants completed an anonymous questionnaire that included general aspects of prognosis, including the following: 1) peri‐implantitis; 2) etiology; 3) awareness; 4) attitudes; 5) treatment; 6) prevention; 7) risk factors; 8) quality of information; 9) level of patient satisfaction; and 10) QoL. Associations among questionnaire data were identified using univariate and multivariate analyses.Results: Overall, 411 implants were included from 135 patients with implants. Frequency of peri‐implantitis in the survey was 17.8% at the participant level, with 70% of them reporting high level of post‐surgical satisfaction. Worry and concern were frequent findings among patients with peri‐implantitis (64%), and 32% reported that living with the disease was terrible. The vast majority of patients (74.1%) did not have knowledge about peri‐implant pathology. Patients with peri‐implantitis showed statistically significantly better understanding of implant therapy (P <0.001) and also higher average concern (P = 0.004).Conclusions: Patients generally have a poor understanding and perception of peri‐implantitis and its impact. QoL was impaired by the presence of peri‐implantitis with high level of concern and low level of therapeutic satisfaction. Therefore, it is important to develop standardized information brochures to educate patients on risk factors and indicators of the disease to assist in the prevention of peri‐implantitis.
Drug Delivery Systems For Anti-Cancer Active Complexes of Some Coinage Metals
Authors: Zhang Ming , Saint-Germain Camille , He Guiling , Sun Raymond Wai-Yin 
Published: May 2017

Background:
Although cisplatin and a number of platinum complexes have widely
been used for the treatment of neoplasia, patients receiving these treatments have frequently suffered
from their severe toxic side effects, the development of resistance with consequent relapse.
In the recent decades, numerous complexes of coinage metals including that of gold, copper and
silver have been reported to display promising in vitro and/or in vivo anti-cancer activities as well
as potent activities towards cisplatin-resistant tumors. Nevertheless, the medical development of
these metal complexes has been hampered by their instability in aqueous solutions and the nonspecific
binding in biological systems.

Methods:
One of the approaches to overcome these problems is to design and develop adequate
drug delivery systems (DDSs) for the transport of these complexes. By functionalization, encapsulation
or formulation of the metal complexes, several types of DDSs have been reported to improve
the desired pharmacological profile of the metal complexes, improving their overall stability,
bioavailability, anti-cancer activity and reducing their toxicity towards normal cells.

Conclusion:
In this review, we summarized the recent findings for different DDSs for various anti-
cancer active complexes of some coinage metals.
Nutrition as a Health Determinant in Elderly Patients
Authors: Mastronuzzi Tecla , Grattagliano Ignazio 
Published: May 2017

Background:
An adequate caloric intake is a major determinant for the health status
especially when degenerative conditions become a predominant risk for difficult-to-treat
diseases as in aging.

Methods:
A structured search of literature on the major databases was performed using terms as
nutrition, elderly and malnutrition.

Results:
According to most referenced articles, it appears to be unquestionable that both organic
and social risk factors [economic hardship, loneliness, institutionalization] are important as
determining causes of protein-caloric malnutrition. Some anthropometric, clinical and laboratory
parameters can help to make diagnosis and quantify malnutrition. However, most of them are
not cheap or are not simple to perform especially in the setting of General Practice. The
application of a simple questionnaire [Mini Nutritional Assessment, MNA] allows to obtain in a
fast, easy and non-invasive way a valid assessment of the nutritional status in geriatric patients.
The maintenance of the nutritional status is the best measure to counteract the risk of proteincaloric
malnutrition and its complications which often sneakily affects elderly population and in
particular frail patients.

Conclusion:
This review, based on updated concepts, examines all the above mentioned points
together with some aspects associated with malnutrition as an indicator of disease severity and
health costs in the elderly population. Finally, the impact of nutritional intervention and
nutrients supplementation on general indices of malnutrition are discussed as a promising
strategy.
Survival Benefit of Transplantation with a Deceased Diabetic Donor Kidney Compared with Remaining on the Waitlist
Authors: Cohen Jordana B. , Eddinger Kevin C. , Locke Jayme E. , Forde Kimberly A. , Reese Peter P. , Sawinski Deirdre L. 
Published: May 2017

Background and objectives
Use of diabetic donor kidneys has been a necessary response to the donor organ shortage. Recipients of diabetic donor kidneys have higher mortality risk compared with recipients of nondiabetic donor kidneys. However, the survival benefit of transplantation with diabetic donor kidneys over remaining on the waitlist has not been previously evaluated.

Design, setting, participants, & measurements
We performed an observational cohort study of 437,619 kidney transplant candidates from the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network database, including 8101 recipients of diabetic donor kidneys and 126,560 recipients of nondiabetic donor kidneys. We used time-varying Cox proportional hazards modeling to assess the mortality risk of accepting a diabetic donor kidney compared with remaining on the waitlist or receiving a nondiabetic donor kidney.

Results
Among transplant recipients, median follow-up was 8.9 years and mortality rate was 35 deaths per 1000 person-years. Recipients of diabetic donor kidneys had 9% lower mortality compared with remaining on the waitlist or transplantation with a nondiabetic donor kidney (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.91; 95% confidence interval, 0.84 to 0.98). Although recipients of nondiabetic donor kidneys with a Kidney Donor Profile Index score >85% had lower mortality risk (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.86; 95% confidence interval, 0.81 to 0.91), recipients of diabetic donor kidneys with an index score >85% did not show any difference (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.09; 95% confidence interval, 0.97 to 1.22). Patients aged <40 years attained no survival benefit from transplantation with diabetic donor kidneys; diabetic patients at centers with long waitlist times attained the greatest survival benefit.

Conclusions
Diabetic donor kidneys appear associated with higher mortality risk compared with nondiabetic donor kidneys, but offer greater survival benefit compared with remaining on the waitlist for many candidates. Patients with high risk of mortality on the waitlist at centers with long wait times appear to benefit most from transplantation with diabetic donor kidneys.

Authors: Riptanti Erlyna Wida , Qonita Suprapti Aulia 
Published: May 2017

Â Food storage in the form of barn is mostly ineffective in Wonogiri. Even though, it has very significant role as buffer stock in the drought season. Meanwhile, the governmentâ€™s program initiates the activating of food barn, by providing fund assistance for barn building, rice miller and restock rice grains in the barn. However, it has not made the barn well developed, due to its dependency on the program.The aim of this study is to construct the development of sustainable communityâ€™s food barn. This study was used an exploratory method. The location of this study was selected purposively in Wonogiri. The result of this study showed that inactive food barn was caused by its poor management. Meanwhile, the active food barn functioned for savings and loans of rice grains. It has high dependency to the government program. The barn development needs a support from physical and non-physical environment to reach its sustainability.

Acculturation in the Architecture of Lasem City
Authors: Purwanto L.M.F. , Titiek S. Yulita 
Published: May 2017

Lasem city, located on the northern coast of Java, is particularly well-known for its buildings with Chinese architecture, thus the nickname â€œLittle Chinese (or China) in Javaâ€. Despite the deeply ingrained Chinese ethnicity in Lasem, history recorded the tight bond of solidarity between the Chinese and the Javanese. Religious, racial, and ethnic conflicts between the two ethnic groups hardly existed.Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â By using the phenomenological approach, this research focuses on the process of acculturation in Lasem. It specifically attempts to document the acculturation process manifested through building structures and settlement patterns as a model of the daily life of the Indonesian society.Â The findings of the study suggested that acculturation process has greatly influenced the structure of the buildings in Lasem. Many buildings in Lasem mix the Chinese and Javanese architectures in their space layout and details. The outcome of this research is a model of acculturation process reflected in architecture. This model can be implemented in other cities in Indonesia.Â

Authors: Jha Anurag , Pathak Rahul , Sharma Sashi , Khadga Prem 
Published: May 2017

Cystic hepatic disease is common in Asia, South America and Africa. Rupture of the hydatid cyst into the biliary tree can lead to serious cholangitis. In this report, a 53-year-old lady presented with the signs and symptoms of obstructive jaundice and cholangitis. Ultrasonography reported dilated common bile duct(CBD) with sludge and hydatid cysts in the liver. CECT revealed large cysts with enhancing thin wall in left and right lobe of liver with communicating into CBD and right IHBD respectively and features of obstructive biliopathy. Due to signs and symptoms of obstructive jaundice in addition to lab data and imaging modalities, ruptured hydatid cyst into the biliary tree was considered, and ERCP intervention was performed, after endoscopic sphincterotomy , membranes of the cysts were extracted. Post intervention, signs and symptoms and cholestasis enzymes subsided.Journal of Advances in Internal Medicine Vol.5(2) 2016: 38-40

OBJECTIVEEndothelin-1, a potent vasoconstrictor, and its receptors may be involved in the pathogenesis of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH), clinical vasospasm, delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI), and functional outcome following aSAH. In the present study, common endothelin single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and their relation to aSAH were evaluated.METHODSBlood samples from all patients enrolled in the Cerebral Aneurysm Renin Angiotensin System (CARAS) study were used for genetic evaluation. The CARAS study prospectively enrolled patients with aSAH at 2 academic institutions in the US from 2012 to 2015. Common endothelin SNPs were detected using 5′ exonnuclease (TaqMan) genotyping assays. Analysis of associations between endothelin SNPs and aSAH and its clinical sequelae was performed.RESULTSSamples from 149 patients with aSAH and 50 controls were available for analysis. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, the TG (odds ratio [OR] 2.102, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.048–4.218, p = 0.036) and TT genotypes (OR 7.884, 95% CI 1.003–61.995, p = 0.05) of the endothelin-1 T/G SNP (rs1800541) were significantly associated with aSAH. There was a dominant effect of the G allele (CG/GG genotypes; OR 4.617, 95% CI 1.311–16.262, p = 0.017) of the endothelin receptor A G/C SNP (rs5335) on clinical vasospasm. Endothelin SNPs were not associated with DCI or functional outcome.CONCLUSIONSCommon endothelin SNPs were found to be associated with presentation with aSAH and clinical vasospasm. Further studies are required to elucidate the relevant pathophysiology and its potential implications in the treatment of patients with aSAH.
Sporadic pediatric meningiomas: a neuroradiological and neuropathological study of 15 cases
Authors: Huntoon Kristin , Pluto Charles P. , Ruess Lynne , Boué Daniel R. , Pierson Christopher R. , Rusin Jerome A. , Leonard Jeffrey 
Published: May 2017

OBJECTIVESporadic meningiomas have been classified in many different ways. Radiographically, these lesions can be described as occurring in either typical or atypical locations. The purpose of this study was to determine if there are any histopathological differences between sporadic meningiomas that arise in these varying locations in children.METHODSThe neuroimaging, histopathological findings, and clinical records in patients with sporadic pediatric meningiomas not associated with neurofibromatosis Type 2 or prior radiation therapy were retrospectively reviewed. Tumors were classified by radiological findings as either typical or atypical, and they were categorized histopathologically by using the latest WHO nomenclature and grading criteria.RESULTSFifteen sporadic meningiomas in pediatric patients were biopsied or resected at the authors’ institution between 1989 and 2013. Five (33%) were typical in radiographic appearance and/or location and 10 (67%) were atypical. Four (80%) typical meningiomas were WHO Grade I tumors. Most (60%) of the atypical meningiomas were WHO Grade II or III.CONCLUSIONSThis study is the largest series of sporadic pediatric meningiomas in atypical locations to date. Although sporadic meningiomas are relatively infrequent in children, those with atypical imaging, specifically those with apparently intraparenchymal and intraosseous locations, may be more common than previously recognized. In this study, pediatric sporadic meningiomas arising in atypical locations, in particular intraparenchymal meningiomas, may be of higher histopathological grade. The authors’ findings should alert clinicians to the potential for more aggressive clinical behavior in these tumors.

Abstract
SS 433 is an X-ray binary and the source of sub-relativistic, precessing, baryonic jets. We present high-resolution spectrograms of SS 433 in the infrared H and K bands. The spectrum is dominated by hydrogen and helium emission lines. The precession phase of the emission lines from the jet continues to be described by a constant period,

. The limit on any secularly changing period is

. The He i

line has complex and variable P-Cygni absorption features produced by an inhomogeneous wind with a maximum outflow velocity near 900 km s−1. The He ii emission lines in the spectrum also arise in this wind. The higher members of the hydrogen Brackett lines show a double-peaked profile with symmetric wings extending more than ±1500 km s−1 from the line center. The lines display radial velocity variations in phase with the radial velocity variation expected of the compact star, and they show a distortion during disk eclipse that we interpret as a rotational distortion. We fit the line profiles with a model in which the emission comes from the surface of a symmetric, Keplerian accretion disk around the compact object. The outer edge of the disk has velocities that vary from 110 to 190 km s−1. These comparatively low velocities place an important constraint on the mass of the compact star: its mass must be less than

GMC Collisions as Triggers of Star Formation. III. Density and Magnetically Regulated Star Formation
Authors: Wu Benjamin , Tan Jonathan C. , Christie Duncan , Nakamura Fumitaka , Van Loo Sven , Collins David 
Published: May 2017

Abstract
We study giant molecular cloud (GMC) collisions and their ability to trigger star cluster formation. We further develop our three-dimensional magnetized, turbulent, colliding GMC simulations by implementing star formation subgrid models. Two such models are explored: (1) “Density-Regulated,” i.e., fixed efficiency per free-fall time above a set density threshold and (2) “Magnetically Regulated,” i.e., fixed efficiency per free-fall time in regions that are magnetically supercritical. Variations of parameters associated with these models are also explored. In the non-colliding simulations, the overall level of star formation is sensitive to model parameter choices that relate to effective density thresholds. In the GMC collision simulations, the final star formation rates and efficiencies are relatively independent of these parameters. Between the non-colliding and colliding cases, we compare the morphologies of the resulting star clusters, properties of star-forming gas, time evolution of the star formation rate (SFR), spatial clustering of the stars, and resulting kinematics of the stars in comparison to the natal gas. We find that typical collisions, by creating larger amounts of dense gas, trigger earlier and enhanced star formation, resulting in 10 times higher SFRs and efficiencies. The star clusters formed from GMC collisions show greater spatial substructure and more disturbed kinematics.
