ABSTRACT

Objectives:
To examine the impact of bisphosphonates (BPs) on dental implant treatment and alveolar bone in post-menopausal ladies

Materials and Methods:
Twenty post-menopausal ladies who had at least one dental implant within the previous 5 years participated in the current study. Ten subjects were categorized into two groups: Group A had BP medication for 1.5 years, and group B received parathyroid hormone (PTH). Both groups’ bone thickness and bone mineral density (BMD) were measured.

Result:
Group A had 5%, and group B had 5% of dental implants failures. BMD of cortical bone was 1468 ± 136 mg/mL and 1008 ± 84 mg/mL in groups A and B, correspondingly. The cortical and cancellous bone densities in both the groups were statically significant. Cortical bone thickness was insignificant in comparison

Conclusion:
Both cortical and cancellous bones’ bone mineral density decreased in both groups. With continued usage of BPs, the cortical bone thickness increased.

Introduction:
The Shengxian decoction (SXT), a Chinese herbal medication used to treat heart failure, is composed of Astragali Radix, Anemarrhenae Rhizoma, Bupleuri Radix, Cimicifuage Rhizoma, and Platycodonis Radix. Knowledge of the excretion of the active compounds in this herbal medication is vital for investigating the underlying mechanisms behind its compatibility. However, this remains unclear.

Methods:
Liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry was performed in both positive and negative modes to assay 18 constituents of SXT from rat urinary, fecal, and biliary samples.

Results:
The methodology was validated and showed good linearity (r ≥ 0.9), precision, stability, repeatability, and recovery. The relative standard deviations and relative errors for the precision and accuracy did not exceed 15%. The recoveries of all the compounds ranged from 77.37% to 114.82%, and the matrix effect was between 82.53% and 105.71%. The results suggested that, when combined with Platycodonis Radix, the levels of 14 constituents from the four herbs were reduced in the urine, while the levels of six constituents were reduced in the feces.

Conclusions:
The comparative excretion results indicated that Platycodonis Radix reduced the excretion of compounds in SXT, demonstrating the compatibility mechanism and holistic properties of these compounds, favoring the pharmacological effects of SXT.

Les populations du centre et du Septentrion du Bénin utilisent les feuilles, les calices et les graines de la variété blanche Hibiscus sabdariffa L. dans l’alimentaire et en pharmacopée pour la prévenir et le traiter diverses maladies. Ce travail visait d’une part à déterminer la composition en métabolites secondaires de ces trois organes sus-mentionnés et d’autre part, à évaluer la toxicité aiguë de leurs extraits. A cet effet une analyse phytochimique basée sur des réactions de coloration et/ou de précipitation a été effectué afin d’identifier quelques composés chimiques qu’ils contiennent. La toxicité aigüe des extraits des organes a été testée par observation durant 14 jours après gavage par une dose unique de 5000 mg/kg pv à des rats Wistar contre des témoins. Les tests phytochimiques révèlent la présence des tanins galliques, des flavonoïdes, des anthocyanes, des leuco-anthocyanes, des mucilages, des composés réducteurs, des anthracéniques combinés dans les trois organes. En ce qui concerne la toxicité, les extraits des trois organes de la plante n’ont pas provoqué de variations significatives des taux d’urée, de l’uricémie des bilirubines, l’Aspartate Aminotransférase (ASAT), l’Alanine Aminotransférase (ASAT) et la Phosphatase Alcaline (PAL) chez rats Wistar (p > 0,05).

English title: Phytochemical analysis of Hibiscus sabdariffa Linn (Malvaceae) ethanolic extracts and evaluation of acute oral toxicity in Wistar rats
The populations of central and northern Benin use the leaves, chalices and seeds of the white variety Hibiscus sabdariffa L. in food and in pharmacopoeia in the prevention and treatment of various diseases. This work aimed on the one hand to determine the composition in secondary metabolites of these three above-mentioned organs and on the other hand, to evaluate the acute toxicity of their extracts. To this end, phytochemical analysis based on coloring and/or precipitation reactions was carried out in order to identify some chemical compounds they contain. The acute toxicity of the organ extracts was tested by observation for 14 days after gavage with a single dose of 5000 mg/kg bw in Wistar rats against controls. Phytochemical tests reveal the presence of gallic tannins, flavonoids, anthocyanins, leuco-anthocyanins, mucilages, reducing compounds, anthracenics combined in the three organs. With regard to toxicity, the extracts of the three plant organs did not cause significant variations in the levels of urea, uricemia, bilirubins, Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST), Alanine Aminotransferase (AST) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in Wistar rats (p > 0.05).

Polylactide (PLA) is a biodegradable polymer with low elongation which limits its use in some applications. The incorporation of biowaste particles has been employed to improve its properties. This work thus examines the impact of lignin particles reinforced on electrospun PLA fibre mats. Acid hydrolysis (1M of HCl at 60 and 100 oC for 2 and 4 h was used to extract lignin from Cocos nucifera L (CNHL) and Zea Mays Chaff (CCL). Lignin particles were added to molten PLA, stirred, and electrospun at 26 kV, using a static aluminum collector plate placed at 121mm from the spinneret tip. Morphological examination reveals that fibre diameter of neat PLA (9.7 µm) increased from 107 – 285 % with the additions of reinforcements. Maximum tensile strength of 1.03 MPa is recorded for PLA/CNHL 60oC /2 h. This composite maintains the highest elongation of 0.069 % compared to neat PLA (0.046 %). X-Ray diffractometer (XRD) result informs that the crystallinity of neat PLA (67.6 %) improves by 3%, with the use of CNHL 60 oC/ 2 h. Thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA) result shows that both fibre composites possess better thermal stability (380 oC) compared to reinforcing PLA fibre (319 oC).

La integridad profesional como parte del deber de ser ejemplo en la abogacía: Reflexiones a partir del “Caso Telmo”
Authors: Caycho Renato Antonio Constantino , Tarmeño Paloma del Campo , Salazar Camila Swayne , Serván Nadia Daniela Ibarra 
Published: February 2024

El presente artículo se basa en la denuncia presentada contra la abogada María Paola Carbajal Ponce ante el Consejo de Ética del Colegio de Abogados de Lima, por haber cometido infracciones éticas hacia el practicante a su cargo, Telmo Paz. En específico, se hace referencia al audio en el que se exponen los malos tratos verbales que recibía el practicante por encontrarse inconforme con el trabajo encargado.
Al respecto, se plantea como la presentación de la denuncia, admisión a trámite y posterior resolución favorable -importante, aunque aún insuficiente- por parte del Consejo de Ética establecen un precedente sobre cómo se deben abordar las infracciones éticas hacia practicantes. Y a su vez, que los abogados tienen obligaciones más allá de las que se crean con sus clientes o centros de trabajo, las cuales refieren a ser íntegros y ser un ejemplo de profesionales para sus pares, haciendo énfasis en los profesionales en formación.
Finalmente, también se desarrolla que el maltrato y la hostilización laboral horizontal hacia practicantes pre y profesionales es sistemático, e incluso forma parte de la cultura e identidad de la idea de la “adecuada” formación profesional en Derecho, en especial, en estudios de abogados. Lo cual, advierte sobre la carencia de una formación con enfoque ético, porque se construye una incuestionable impunidad y lealtad hacia ambientes de hostilización vertical y violencia cuando, lo natural, es el “pagar piso”.

BackgroundThis research aimed to determine the relationship of resilience and symptoms of depression and anxiety in Indonesian adolescents, particularly the degree to which the fear of missing out (FoMO) influenced resilience toward symptoms of depression and anxiety.Participants and procedureFive hundred nine Indonesian adolescents aged 12-18 participated in this research. Three psychological measures were used in this research: the Fear of Missing Out Scale (FoMO), the Depression and Anxiety Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21), and the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC).ResultsThe structural model showed that resilience did not significantly predict FoMO. It significantly and negatively affected depression, anxiety, and stress. Furthermore, FoMO was the strongest predictor for depression, followed by stress and anxiety. Gender significantly predicted psychological symptoms, with females being more prone to depression, anxiety, and stress than males. The percentage of variation explained for depression, anxiety, and stress was 15.8%, 15.1%, and 9.5%, respectively.ConclusionsThe study indicated that with higher adolescents’ resilience status there was a lower tendency of depression and anxiety. Based on the mediation results, FoMO did not significantly mediate the relationship between resilience and depression. These findings contribute to the impacts of online anxiety-related variables that can generate symptoms of stress and depression in adolescents.

PurposeAnomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) is a rare congenital ano­maly of the origin of the coronary arteries. The prevalence of this anomaly in the adult patient population is low, and therefore there is virtually no original research on this topic. Reports are limited to case reports.Material and methodsWe evaluated 16,264 computed tomography (CT) exams (cardiac and chest) performed in our heart imaging department between 2015 and 2022 on a dual source 128-slice CT scanner (SOMATOM Definition Flash, Siemens Healthineers, Forchheim, Germany) and established a retrospective registry of adult patients (> 18 years old) with ALCAPA. The study included 7 cases. Next, we collected clinical and echocardiographic data, which could be assessed retrospectively.ResultsWe found 7 cases of ALCAPA in adult patients (0.043%). Three of them were female, and 4 were male. The age varied between 20 and 60 years. Echocardiographic findings, as well as the clinical course, varied widely.ConclusionsALCAPA is an extremely rare anomaly, which nonetheless must be taken into clinical consideration. This lesion may be fatal during infancy. Data regarding adult patients is scarce. Multicentre registries are needed to establish a more detailed clinical profile of adults with this anomaly.

STRATEGI ALTERNATIF SPEKTRUM MANAJEMEN DENGAN REGULASI OPSI REFARMING UNTUK IMPLEMENTASI LTE PITA FREKUENSI 900 MHZ, 1800 MHZ & 2100 MHZ DI INDONESIA
Authors: Krisdianto Heru 
Published: February 2024

Teknologi Long Term Evolution merupakan salah satu teknologi dari era broadband yang dapat menawarkan kecepatan akses data mencapai 100 Mbps atau sekitar 4 kali kecepatan teknologi HSPA+. LTE akan diimplementasikan di Indonesia secara komersial meskipun hingga saat ini masih dalam tahap uji coba. Salah satu hal yang menjadi permasalahan dalam implementasi LTE di Indonesia adalah alokasi frekuensi. LTE memang memberikan beberapa alternatif alokasi frekuensi yang dapat digunakan seperti 700, 850, 900, 1800, 2100 dan 2600 MHz dan dengan lebar pita yang dapat disesuaikan yaitu 1.4, 3, 5, 10 dan 20 MHz. Dengan melihat kondisi saat ini di pita frekuensi tersebut di Indonesia maka salah satu alokasi frekuensi yang dapat digunakan untuk implementasi LTE dalam waktu dekat ini adalah pada pita frekuensi 900 MHz, 1800 Mhz & 2100 MHz. Di Indonesia, kondisi pita frekuensi 900 MHz, 1800 MHz & 2100 Mhz telah dihuni dan digunakan oleh empat pemegang lisensi operator. Namun lebar bandwidth dan kanal frekuensi yang diperoleh tidak sama dan tidak berdampingan. Dengan menggunakan metodologi dalam tahapan-tahapan pada proses Regulatory Impact Analysis, hal ini digunakan untuk memilih dan menentukan stategi alternatif tool spectrum management yang dipergunakan dan juga opsi refarming yang paling efektif termasuk dampak dari setiap masing-masing opsi tersebut. Metoda pendekatan voluntary spectrum redeployment dan penerapan netral teknologi yang dilakukan secara transparan dan terbuka melalui konsultasi publik dengan melibatkan stakeholder merupakan strategi alternatif spectrum management yang bisa diterapkan untuk melakukan proses refarming di pita frekuensi 900 MHz, 1800 MHz & 2100 MHz di Indoensia. Dan instrumen spectrum management ini juga digunakan untuk melakukan penataan menyeluruh pita frekuensi 900 MHz, 1800 MHz & 2100 MHz sehingga didapatkan jumlah total lebar bandwidth yang ideal dan kanal alokasi frekuensi yang berdekatan atau contiguous sehingga dapat digunakan dalam penerapan teknologi ini.
