BACKGROUND
Liver cirrhosis patients admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) have a high mortality rate.
AIM
To establish and validate a nomogram for predicting in-hospital mortality of ICU patients with liver cirrhosis.
METHODS
We extracted demographic, etiological, vital sign, laboratory test, comorbidity, complication, treatment, and severity score data of liver cirrhosis patients from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV) and electronic ICU (eICU) collaborative research database (eICU-CRD). Predictor selection and model building were based on the MIMIC-IV dataset. The variables selected through least absolute shrinkage and selection operator analysis were further screened through multivariate regression analysis to obtain final predictors. The final predictors were included in the multivariate logistic regression model, which was used to construct a nomogram. Finally, we conducted external validation using the eICU-CRD. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), decision curve, and calibration curve were used to assess the efficacy of the models.
RESULTS
Risk factors, including the mean respiratory rate, mean systolic blood pressure, mean heart rate, white blood cells, international normalized ratio, total bilirubin, age, invasive ventilation, vasopressor use, maximum stage of acute kidney injury, and sequential organ failure assessment score, were included in the multivariate logistic regression. The model achieved AUCs of 0.864 and 0.808 in the MIMIC-IV and eICU-CRD databases, respectively. The calibration curve also confirmed the predictive ability of the model, while the decision curve confirmed its clinical value.
CONCLUSION
The nomogram has high accuracy in predicting in-hospital mortality. Improving the included predictors may help improve the prognosis of patients.

BACKGROUND
Currently, the differentiation of jaw tumors is mainly based on the lesion’s morphology rather than the enhancement characteristics, which are important in the differentiation of neoplasms across the body. There is a paucity of literature on the enhancement characteristics of jaw tumors. This is mainly because, even though computed tomography (CT) is used to evaluate these lesions, they are often imaged without intravenous contrast. This study hypothesised that the enhancement characteristics of the solid component of jaw tumors can aid in the differentiation of these lesions in addition to their morphology by dual-energy CT, therefore improving the ability to differentiate between various pathologies.
AIM
To evaluate the role of contrast enhancement and dual-energy quantitative parameters in CT in the differentiation of jaw tumors
METHODS
Fifty-seven patients with jaw tumors underwent contrast-enhanced dual-energy CT. Morphological analysis of the tumor, including the enhancing solid component, was done, followed by quantitative analysis of iodine concentration (IC), water concentration (WC), HU, and normalized IC. The study population was divided into four subgroups based on histopathological analysis-central giant cell granuloma (CGCG), ameloblastoma, odontogenic keratocyst (OKC), and other jaw tumors. A one-way ANOVA test for parametric variables and the Kruskal-Wallis test for non-parametric variables were used. If significant differences were found, a series of independent t -tests or Mann-Whitney U tests were used.
RESULTS
Ameloblastoma was the most common pathology (n = 20), followed by CGCG (n = 11) and OKC. CGCG showed a higher mean concentration of all quantitative parameters than ameloblastomas (P < 0.05). An IC threshold of 31.35 × 100 μg/cm3 had the maximum sensitivity (81.8%) and specificity (65%). Between ameloblastomas and OKC, the former showed a higher mean concentration of all quantitative parameters (P < 0.001), however when comparing unilocular ameloblastomas with OKCs, the latter showed significantly higher WC. Also, ameloblastoma had a higher IC and lower WC compared to “other jaw tumors” group.
CONCLUSION
Enhancement characteristics of solid components combined with dual-energy parameters offer a more precise way to differentiate between jaw tumors.

Clean and Healthy Living Behavior (PHBS) is all health behaviors that are carried out on awareness. There are many PHBS, hundreds of them. For example about nutrition: eating a variety of foods, taking blood supplement tablets, consuming iodized salt, giving babies and toddlers vitamin capsules. Primary school-age children are also very vulnerable to health problems due to an unhealthy diet. Food sold at school or in the school environment does not all meet health and safety standards, and school children tend to prefer unhealthy foods either because of inadequate knowledge or because they are easily influenced by advertisements The subjects in the service activities are elementary school children at Bharlind Elementary School. The delivery of counseling material using the lecture method, the implementation of the service which is assisted by the teacher and followed by a question and answer session This community service activity aims to improve the level of health at Bharlind Private Elementary School in 2023 "was carried out on Wednesday, July 12, 2023 at 09.00 WIB until completion. When the activity began, elementary school students in grade 4SD were gathered in the classroom, then socialized counseling material about healthy and clean behavior (PHBS) in children, and conducted questions and answers to children. In the delivery of the material, it turned out that many children did not understand about healthy and clean living behavior (PHBS). The application of PHBS can not only be applied in the home environment, but PHBS can also be applied in the school environment, namely by efforts to provide learning experiences or create a condition for individuals, provide information and conduct education to improve knowledge, attitudes and behavior through approaches to children.

descentralización de la gestión ambiental desde el marco jurídico de Panamá.
Authors: Campos Alvarado Vanessa 
Published: April 2024

La extensión territorial de los Estado puede convertirse en un obstáculo para un mejor control de la preservación del ambiente, así, como dilaciones en la distribución de los recursos para cumplir con estos objetivos. Igualmente la total dependencia a un gobierno central en espera de decisiones que mediante el otorgamiento de competencia a autoridades regionales y locales podría contribuir a dar una mejor respuesta ágil y equitativa , son algunos de los argumentos que justifican la práctica de la descentralización de la gestión ambiental sumada a una mayor participación de los actores de la sociedad civil del territorio directamente afectado en la búsqueda de respuestas para las problemáticas ambientales. Lo anterior amerita un modelo para modernizar la administración pública como la descentralización.

The New Spirit of Islamism
Authors: Başaran Ezgi 
Published: April 2024

This book explains the aspirations and concerns of Islamist actors in the aftermath of the Arab Uprisings by looking at two sets of relationships between Turkey’s ruling AKP and the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood, and the AKP and Tunisia’s Ennahda. It presents a unique analysis of the interplay between the AKP, Ennahda and the Muslim Brotherhood, characterizing the actors, the structure and the main features of the relationship and thereby illuminating a political confluence among these three critical Islamist entities in the aftermath of the Arab Uprisings.
Existing scholarship has assumed that this relationship revolves primarily around an ideological Islamist agenda, however, this research demonstrates a more complex and nuanced situation. Ezgi Basaran puts forward that the interplay was not based on an aspiration of building an ideological Islamist bloc in the MENA region, but rather revolved around the concept of political success and had a strong neoliberal ethos. Basaran draws on data collected from over 60 interviews with high-level members of the AKP, Ennahda and Muslim Brotherhood to demonstrate how, in the hope of achieving success and legitimization, Ennahda and the Muslim Brotherhood have relied on the managerial prescriptions provided by the AKP. The contents of this success formula were derived from the AKP’s experience as an Islamist party in power since 2002 and includes tactics on crisis evasion, legitimization, winning elections and maintaining power.
Nietzsche and Architecture
Authors: Huskinson Lucy 
Published: April 2024

Nietzsche and Architecture explores Nietzsche’s relationship to the architects, buildings, and modern architectural movements he went on to inspire, and situates his philosophy more appropriately and comprehensively within the field of architectural studies, architectural history, and theory.
Divided into two parts, the book first examines Nietzsche’s philosophy of architecture, exploring his notions of rhythm, ornament, style, and power. It then goes on to examine Nietzsche’s ambiguous architectural legacy, scrutinising iconic architects, thinkers, designs, and cultural movements to ascertain their relationship with Nietzschean ideas, from the crystal architecture of Bruno Taut and Peter Behrens, to the ‘new styles’ of the Bauhaus and Le Corbusier, Louis H. Sullivan’s desire for the heights, and the cultural propaganda of ‘Nazi architecture’.
Clearly explaining the subtleties and complexities of Nietzsche’s architectural thought, Nietzsche and Architecture provides an accessible insight into Nietzsche’s philosophy and its significance to the development of modern architecture in the 19th and early 20th centuries, shedding vital light on the continued relevance of Nietzsche to architecture today.
The Amateur
Authors: Majumdar Saikat 
Published: April 2024

Can ignorance, mistake, failure shape ways of reading, or do they disrupt its proper practice? What happens when the authority of modern education and culture places canonical western texts in the way of readers who live in worlds remote from their material contexts?
The Amateur reads patterns of autodidactism and intellectual self-formation under systems of colonial education that are variously repressive, exclusionary, broken, or narrowly instrumental. It outlines the development of a wide range of writers, activists, and thinkers whose failed relationships with institutions of knowledge curiously enabled their later success as popular intellectuals. Bringing current debates around reading together with the history of higher education in the postcolony, it focuses on three primary locations: Black intellectuals in apartheid-era South Africa in the aftermath of the Bantu Education Act of 1953, 20th century Caribbean writers who sought to understand the disembodied legacy of the diaspora through accidental encounters with literature and history, and writers from late-colonial and postcolonial India whose disruptive self-formation departed from the administrative project of professionalizing a particular kind of colonial subject.
Celebrating flawed and accidental forms of reading, writing, and learning along the periphery of the historical British Empire, Majumdar reveals an unexpected account of the humanities in the postcolony.

Intelligent Alerting System Development by Network Media Semantic Analysis and Face Recognition
Authors: Yung Gi Wu  
Published: April 2024

Nowadays, the network has become the major data provider to everyone. Various providers feed data to the end users to achieve the flow of information for their purposes. In this research, we develop an intelligent alerting system that can automatically sematic analyze the contents from the network and extract the altered information including event description and suspect’s photo. We crawl the PTT, Dcard, and Google News in Taiwan as our sources to process due to the popularity of the three social network systems. These are the three very popular social media in Taiwan and real-time events, news is always posted to the three media very soon, therefore, we adopt them as our research source. Video monitors installed on campus or in the community after receiving alerts and photos will enter alert mode. Real-time face recognition will be issued for the people captured by the camera. Once the system recognizes the suspect, it will notify the security guard to take necessary actions to protect the people. There are two major parts to this research, the first one is the media semantic analysis and the second one is the real-time face recognition. It is an intelligent altering system that is capable to find out the suspected assault or rapist rapidly once he is captured by a monitor and recognized after people post the crime events to the media.
