Memória, ficção e trabalho de luto em La casa de los conejos
Authors: Fontes Izabel Santa Cruz 
Published: April 2017

Buscamos analisar o romance La casa de los conejos, da escritora argentina Laura Alcoba, partindo das relações entre luto e escrita. Para isso, procuramos ver a publicação no contexto argentino das políticas de memória. Por meio de uma narrativa autoficcional em primeira pessoa, a autora relata suas experiências da época em que viveu com a sua mãe e um casal de ativistas políticos na casa de impressão clandestina do jornal revolucionário Evita Montonera. Misturando relatos alheios, documentos históricos e fragmentos de suas lembranças da infância, Laura Alcoba revisita e ressignifica as violências das quais foi testemunha nos anos de ditadura militar, tentando, com esse processo, ressignificar também as funções da ficção no romance e seus impactos no resgate da identidade operado discursivamente.Palavras-chave: ditadura argentina; autoficcção; Laura Alcoba; luto; trabalho de memória.

Published: April 2017

Este texto apresenta fragmentos do processo de pesquisa sobre os registros e as memórias de um extinto abrigo de alienados na cidade de Joinville (SC). O objetivo deste projeto foi conhecer detalhes da história da referida instituição como forma de perfazer os primeiros capítulos da história da saúde mental/loucura na cidade. A composição metodológica consiste no diálogo entre a psicologia social e a história com base no paradigma indiciário, o qual mediante a observação minuciosa se interessa pelos rastros de memória que podem ser reveladores de pequenos detalhes para a compreensão do assunto pesquisado. Como resultado temos alguns achados de pesquisa – imagens da instituição, livros de registro de internos, reportagens sobre o local, entre outros –, revelando a instituição de forma tímida e superficial, por conta dos registros escassos.
A 5-week Non-Surgical Approach towards Denture Induced Hyperplasia
Authors: Iegami Carolina Mayumi , Tamaki Regina , Neto Pedro Tortamano 
Published: April 2017

Background
Despite the standard approach towards denture-induced hyperplasia being surgery, as elderly population increases the systemic problems are carried along. Thus, surgery might be risky for patients with medical conditions.

Objective
In this report, a patient with severe inflammatory papillary hyperplasia, medical problems and dental fear was treated with a 5-week nonsurgical protocol.

Method
Once in a week, the upper denture was relined with a zinc enolic paste, for four weeks. In the fifth week, the denture was relined with fast set polymethyl methacrylate resin instead of zinc enolic paste so that the material would last longer than only a week until the new pair of dentures was manufactured.

Results and Conclusion
The generated pressure combined with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of the paste led to the elimination of the inflammatory papillary hyperplasia completely, satisfying the patient and allowing the manufacturing of a new set of complete dentures.

Authors: Al-Janaby Hala , El-Sakka Haytham , Masood Manal , Ashani W. Mendis Walimuni , M. Slack-Smith Linda , Parsons Richard , M. Frydrych Agnieszka 
Published: April 2017

Background:
Oral lichen planus and mouth dryness are common pathoses, yet not entirely understood. These two conditions may be associated, with a few studies investigating the relationship between mouth dryness and oral lichen planus providing conflicting results. None of the studies have explored the specific impact of disease treatment on mouth dryness.

Objective:
The purpose of this observational before and after comparison study was to examine the effect of treatment of oral lichen planus with topical corticosteroids on mouth dryness.

Methods:
Nineteen subjects with oral lichen planus were evaluated for the severity of xerostomia using a xerostomia inventory and a visual analogue scale. Stimulated and unstimulated whole salivary flow rates, unstimulated salivary pH and buffering capacity were also measured. All subjects were evaluated before and after treatment with topical corticosteroids.

Results:
All subjects reported xerostomia before treatment with topical corticosteroids, with 79% reporting a significant improvement (P = 0.03) after treatment. Topical corticosteroid treatment was not associated with statistically significant differences in stimulated or unstimulated salivary flow rates, unstimulated salivary pH or buffering capacity.

Conclusion:
The results of this study suggest that treatment of oral lichen planus with topical corticosteroids may decrease the severity of dry mouth symptoms.
Angulating-Distraction Ulnar Osteotomy and Interpositional Phosphocalcic Ceramic Wedge Graft for a Chronic Monteggia Lesion
Authors: Prabhu Jagadish , Faqi Mohammed K. , AL Khalifa Fahad , Awad Rashad K. 
Published: April 2017

Background:
Various types of osteotomies have been used to facilitate reduction of the radial head and to prevent recurrent subluxation. The Bouyala technique – open reduction of radial head associated with open wedge ulnar osteotomy with or without annular ligament reconstruction, is presently the most widely used treatment for long- standing traumatic dislocation of the radial head, independently of age, in the absence of osteoarthritis remodeling, and should preferably be performed within 1 year of trauma.

Method:
In this article, we present a similar case operated by same technique, but we used synthetic phosphocalcic ceramic wedge graft instead of auto bone graft as described in many other studies. We believe that, this will limit the donor site morbidity and also aid in achieving better stability at osteotomy site, which in turn help in proceeding with early active mobilization protocol.

Result:
We achieved union of the osteotomy by three months. Clinically, there was no deformity and she achieved full pain-free range of motion of elbow joint.

Conclusion:
We believe that, use of synthetic phosphocalcic ceramic wedge graft allow rigid fixation of osteotomy, provides additional stability, decrease the risk of secondary displacement and allow early mobilization, which may minimize contracture and we could achieve fairly good clinical outcome.
Modified Open Suprapectoral EndoButton Tension Slide Tenodesis Technique of Long Head of Biceps with Restored Tendon Tension–Length
Authors: Prabhu Jagadish , Faqi Mohammed Khalid , Awad Rashad Khamis , Alkhalifa Fahad 
Published: April 2017

Background:
The vast majority of biceps tendon ruptures occurs at the proximal insertion and almost always involves the long head. There are several options for long head of biceps (LHB) tenodesis with advantage and disadvantages of each technique. We believe that the suprapectoral LHB tenodesis described in this article enables the restoration of the anatomic length-tension relation in a technically reproducible manner, when following the guidelines set forth in this article, and restores biceps contour and function adequately with a low risk of complications.

Method:
We present a case of a young man who had a sudden jerk of his flexed right elbow, while involved in water skiing sports and sustained complete rupture of proximal end of long head of biceps tendon. In this article, we describe a modified surgical technique of open supra-pectoral long head of biceps tenodesis using an EndoButton tension slide technique, reproducing an anatomic length-tension relationship.

Results:
By the end of one year, patient regained symmetrical muscle bulk, shape and contour of biceps compared to other side. There were no signs of dislodgement or loosening of the EndoButton on follow-up radiographs. He regained full muscle power in the biceps without any possible complications, such as humeral fracture, infection, or nerve injury, associated with this technique.

Conclusion:
This technique is a safe, easy to reproduce, cost-effective, less time consuming and an effective method that uses a small drill hole, conserving bone, minimizing trauma to the tendon, and decreasing postoperative complications. It does not need any special instrumentation and is suitable especially for use in centers where arthroscopy facility or training is not available.

Published: April 2017

Introduction:
We conducted a preliminary bird survey in the Abobo-Etetak hill (Yaounde, Cameroon).

Methods:
To carry out this survey, we used the mist-netting method and we captured birds over a period of six months. To study the distribution of this avifauna in their life environment, we performed several analyses to obtain various diversity indexes such as implemented in softwares SAS/STAT and PAST.

Results:
Three hundred and eleven individuals were captured belonging to 21 passerine and non-passerine families distributed into 39 genera and 51 species. We recorded new species for the area: Anthus brachyurus, Cinnyris reichenowi, Euplectes gierowii, Hirundo fuligula, Nicator vireo, Pogoniulus atroflavus and Pogoniulus subsulphureus, and Terpsiphone rufocinerea. Species documented were from the families Lybiidae, Motacillidae, Nectariniidae, Hirundinidae, Nicatoridae, Ploceidae and Monarchidae. Species from two new genera were recorded, Cinnyris (Sunbirds) and Terpsiphone (Monarchs). Estimated diversity index values show that the Abobo-Etetak hill exhibits high avifaunistic diversity.

Conclusion:
Our results found an absence of the supremacy of one species (H’=3.34) and the value of the Equitability index (J’=0.85) suggests an equal distribution of the individuals across species. With the obtained value of the index of Simpson diversity of 0.95, our result suggests high diversity within the Abobo-Etetak avifauna, which could be explained by luxuriant vegetation that is present all year round. Human activities have had an impact on the diversity of this avifauna with the presence of some genera sampled (Ploceus, Passer, Estrilda, Pycnonotus and Spermophaga) but the relic Centre Region of Cameroon which preserves its originality offers on the whole favourable conditions to birds.
Gas Hydrate Formation Phase Boundary Behaviour of Synthetic Natural Gas System of the Keta Basin of Ghana
Authors: Broni-Bediako Eric , Amorin Richard , Bavoh Cornelius B. 
Published: April 2017

Background:Gas hydrates are considered as a major threat to the oil and gas flow assurance industry. At high pressure and low temperature conditions, gas hydrates form in pipelines and production facilities leading to pipeline blockages, high removal cost, environmental hazards and loss of lives. For a successful prevention of gas hydrate formation, predicting the hydrate formation phase boundary of hydrocarbon fluid composition becomes very necessary.Objective and Method:In this study, computer simulation software called PVTSim was used to predict hydrate formation phase boundary of synthetic natural gas composition of the Keta basin of Ghana at pressure and temperature ranges of 43.09 bar - 350 bar and 12.87 °C - 27.29 °C respectively. The effect of changes in natural gas composition (N2and H2S) and the presence of four commonly used thermodynamic gas hydrate inhibitors (methanol, ethanol, diethylene glycol and monoethylene glycol) on the hydrate formation phase boundary is also discussed. Prior to the study, the accuracy of PVTSim was validated with the hydrate formation phase data in literature.Results and Conclusion:Results suggested that the hydrate formation phase boundary decreased with increasing N2composition and increased with increasing H2S composition, suggesting that, the presence of H2S increases the threat of hydrate formation. However, a reduction in hydrate formation threat was observed in the presence of all four commonly used gas hydrate thermodynamic inhibitors with methanol demonstrating the highest inhibition effect.
Using a New Magnetic Flux Leakage Method to Detect Tank Bottom Weld Defects
Authors: Cui Wei , Xing Hai-yan , Jiang Min-zheng , Leng Jian-cheng 
Published: April 2017

Background:
The weld is an important connection part of the tank bottom but during the process of manufacturing and through its use, it frequently produces defects and brings serious hidden danger in the process of safety production.

Objective:
This paper develops a new magnetic flux leakage testing system for tank bottom weld defects and proposes an extraction method for the weld defect. It can be used in the detection and visual evaluation of the weld defects.

Method:
A continuous non-contact scanning method is used in the rectangular slot defect in the different regions of the weld by using a new magnetization system that is vertical to the travelling direction. The characteristics of the weld and the defect are transformed into accurate two-dimensional grayscale graphics through grayscale linear transformation. This is done through the combination of histogram equalization, Otsu’s method of binaryzation, morphologically removing small objects, edge detection, and then structuring a morphologically optimized edge extraction algorithm for edge detection on the grayscale. The displayed grayscale outline locates and quantifies the defects.

Conclusion:
The results indicated that this method can directly indicate the defect shape, location and other information, the visual display of the magnetic flux leakage testing of the weld defects was also realized. It solved difficulties associated with the magnetic flux leakage method being used in the weld testing and showed how weld detection equipment can be used in the detection and visual evaluation of the weld defects.

Published: April 2017

Purpose – to describe the relationship of selected socio-demographic, clinical, and surgical factors with the severity and patterns of postoperative pain during the first three days following total knee arthroplasty.Material and methods. The sample included 100 patients (93 women and 7 men; mean age 63.5±7.8 years) with osteoarthritis admitted for primary total knee arthroplasty. Prior to surgery, standard measures were used to assess preoperative pain and other symptoms, clinical manifestations of osteoarthritis, functional status of the knee, comorbidities, functional abilities, quality of life, and other patient characteristics. Physical, biochemical and surgical parameters of the perioperative period were also recorded. Patterns of daily changes in postoperative pain characteristics were investigated with the use of individual diaries. Results. All the analyzed indicators of postoperative pain progressively decreased during the three days after surgery (р0,001), including the number of daily hours of moderate to severe pain (р0,001). Pain levels were generally higher among women than among men (р = 0,009). Of the analyzed preoperative factors, higher levels postoperative pain were correlated with higher levels of anxiety (р = 0,029) and preoperative pain intensity (р = 0,029). Among the perioperative factors, surgery duration longer than 90 minutes was associated with higher levels of postoperative pain in activity (р = 0,012) and more hours of moderate/severe pain (р = 0,008). Characteristics of postoperative pain were unrelated to level of patient education, social or family status, employment, lifestyle, or any other clinical or laboratory variables.Conclusion. Of the many factors previously associated with postoperative pain, only gender, anxiety and level of preoperative pain confirmed their importance in this study. Among the perioperative factors, surgery duration, which varied by the type of implant, was significantly associated with postoperative pain levels.

Published: April 2017

Purpose – to improve the tactics for surgical management of bicondylar tibia fractures to gain better outcomes. Materials and methods. The authors analyzed outcomes of surgical management of 69 patients within 36 months after the procedures. Two comparison groups were created to assess the effectiveness of the proposed techniques: the main group of 27 patients (39.1%) and control group of 42 patients (60.9%). In the main group the advanced and new techniques were applied (two-staged protocol of surgical correction, internal fixation with joint distraction, a combination of new L-shaped external and L-shaped internal approaches, bone grafting with b-TCP, carbon nanostructure implant and «Osteomatriks» xenograft). In the control group the conventional internal fixation was used. The difference in tibiofemoral (ΔFTA) and plateau-diaphyseal (ΔPDA) angles at various follow up stages were checked to evaluate reduction stability. P.S. Rasmussen score was used to assess the functional status and life quality of patients. Statistical methods of evaluation included parametric and non-parametric test to check confidence value of variances.Results. In 36 months postoperatively ∆FTA 5° in the main group was observed 1.97 times less than in control group (23.1% and 45.5% respectively); ∆PDA 5° in the main group was observed 1.66 times less than in control group (30.8% and 51.5% respectively). Total number of excellent and good results the main group 36 months postoperatively according to P.S. Rasmussen score was reported as 1.81 times higher than in the control group (50% and 27.6% respectively). Conclusion. The paper proves the efficiency of the proposed surgical procedure for bicondylar tibia fractures management.
Accounting for Disability in the Phenomenological Life-World
Authors: DENIZ GUVENC THOMAS ABRAMS and 
Published: April 2017

This paper critically assesses Edmund Husserl's concept of the ‘life-world’, found in his Crisis of European Sciences and Transcendental Phenomenology. We argue that Husserl's phenomenology fails to consider the social and material arrangements that allow subjectivity to emerge in our shared world. We begin by outlining the concept as formulated in Husserl’s Crisis. We then entertain Husserl’s critique by his most famous student, Martin Heidegger. We suggest a reformulation of intersubjectivity, along the lines of Heidegger’s mitdasein, accounts for subjectivity as it emerges in the shared world. Next, we introduce ethnomethodology, pioneered by Harold Garfinkel, which gives sociological support to this argument. Through the ethnomethodological disability studies of A.B. Robillard, we argue that the life-world is not always as democratic as Husserl's philosophy may suggest. This shows the necessity of disability politics. We end by asking what a phenomenology sensitive to this fact might look like, in terms of both disability studies and phenomenological philosophy more generally.
Building-in-Place
Authors: TEAL RANDALL 
Published: April 2017

Martin Heidegger’s Discourse on Thinking lays out a troubling view of the world which holds true today much as it did at the time of the speech:
"The world now appears as an object open to the attacks of calculative thought, attacks that nothing is believed able any longer to resist. Nature becomes a gigantic gasoline station, an energy source for modern technology and industry. This relation of man to the world as such, in principle a technical one, developed in the seventeenth century first and only in Europe. It long remained unknown in other continents, and it was altogether alien to former ages and histories" (50).

As an architecture professor in an age of modern technology, I believe it critical that design students cultivate an ability to see more comprehensively and learn how to think more meditatively (as Heidegger later suggests). Coming into a state of attunement with context, culture, and environment must be considered to be the most basic criteria for building in the world, as these are the elements that preserve the feeling and identity of ‘place’.

Considering being-in-the-world as a stance that necessarily moves more toward complex understandings of the environment, this paper outlines an effort given to the pedagogical implementation of Martin Heidegger’s description of the phenomenon of ‘world’, the three-fold structure for Being-in as a means of teaching students a more attuned comportment toward place, building, and site. I will discuss how these ideas were used in an preliminary design exercise, then clarified and elaborated through a lecture on Terrance Malick’s film The New World.
Reattaching Shadows: Dancing with Schopenhauer
Authors: Hall Joshua Maloy 
Published: April 2017

In this essay I explore Schopenhauer’s position on dance, beginning with his brief, pejorative references to it in The World as Will and Representation, and then examining dance’s exclusion from his discussion of the arts there. Toward this end I then turn to Francis Sparshott’s essay on the neglect of dance in the history of aesthetics, considering his understanding of Plato’s valorization of dance, and his comment that Schopenhauer’s dance is the death-dance of Shiva. Seeking a stronger justification for Schopenhauer’s neglect and condemnation of dance in light of the opposite tendency in his Greek and Indian influences, I then suggest that Schopenhauer’s conception of madness as a form of disconnection closely linked to genius offers both a promising diagnosis for the problem of dance’s status and also a way of ameliorating it. Finally, I attempt this remedy by sewing together Schopenhauer’s conceptions of embodiment and music—reattaching its dancing shadow to his philosophy.

Published: April 2017

This research aims to discuss literary work through stylistic analysis based on sistemic functional linguistics and literature semiotic system. The research methods used are the librarian study, descriptive method and objective intrinsic approach. The research result shows that the semantic analysis has produced the automatized linguistic meaning and foregrounded linguistic meaning. Next, the first meaning produces the subject matter and the secong meaning produces the literary meaning. Later, the literary meaning produces theme. Finally, it is proved that the subject matter tells about harmony; the literary meaning is about Shelley’s fame; and, the theme is about a famous poet.
