Infection Rates After Aseptic Revision Total Hip Arthroplasty With Extended Oral Antibiotic Prophylaxis
Authors: Mohiuddin Amer , Rice Justin , Ziemba-Davis Mary , Meneghini R. Michael 
Published: February 2024

Introduction:
Few US studies have investigated the efficacy of extended oral antibiotic prophylaxis (EOAP) in the prevention of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) after aseptic revision total hip arthroplasty (R-THA). This study compared PJI rates in aseptic R-THA performed with EOAP with PJI rates in published studies of aseptic R-THA patients not receiving EOAP.

Methods:
Prospectively documented data on 127 consecutive aseptic R-THAs were retrospectively reviewed. Evidence-based perioperative infection prevention protocols were used, and all patients were discharged on 7-day EOAP. Superficial and deep infections at 30 and 90 days postoperatively and at mean latest follow-up of 27.8 months were statistically compared with all US studies reporting the prevalence of PJI after aseptic R-THA. Complications related to EOAP within 120 days of the index procedure also are reported.

Results:
No superficial or deep infections were observed at 30 and 90 days postoperatively when 7-day postdischarge EOAP was used. Superficial and deep infection rates were 1.57% (two patients) and 3.15% (four patients) at mean latest follow-up, respectively. Comparisons with published 30-day PJI rates of 1.37% (P = 0.423) and 1.85% (P = 0.257) were not statistically significant. Two of four comparisons with published 90-day PJI rates of 3.43% (P = 0.027) and 5.74% (P = 0.001) were statistically different. The deep PJI rate of 3.15% at mean latest follow-up was significantly lower than two of three published rates at equivalent follow-up including 10.10% (P = 0.009) and 9.12% (P = 0.041). No antibiotic-related complications were observed within 120 days of the index procedure.

Discussion:
Study findings possibly support the use of EOAP after aseptic R-THA to prevent catastrophic PJI with revision implants, indicating that the efficacy of EOAP cannot be definitively ruled-in or ruled-out based on available evidence.

Authors: Adi Didit Yuliantono 
Published: February 2024

The writing of this scientific work will discuss about theological argument agains the views of heretics regarding the divinity of Jesus. The writing is based on the author observation that recently there have been numerous heresies denying the divinity of Jesus, Which could pose a threat to the Christian Faith. Starting for this issue, the author will employ a qualitative research method with a literature review approach. The purpose of this writing is to gather as much data as possible about the heresies that do not acknowledge that Jesus is the Word of God who became flesh. Based on this research, it is found that the presence of these heresies whitin the church is indeed true and has misled many Christian. This is marked by the rejection of the finality of Jesus. However, Christian Teology clearly evaluated what is expressed by the heretics as an error. The Jesus they teach is a different Jesus. Jesus is the Word of God who has existed since eternity alongside the Father and Holy Spirit. The pre-existence is timeless. He is the creator of the Universe with all is content and has authority over it. Abstrak:Penulisan karya ilmiah ini akan membahas mengenai argumentasi teologis terhadap pandangan para bidat tentang keilahian Yesus. Penulisan ini didasari oleh pengamatan penulis bahwa akhir-akhir ini ditemukan banyak sekali bidat-bidat yang menyangkal keilahian Yesus yang bisa membahayakan iman Kristen. Berangkat dari permasalahan tersebut, penulis akan menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan kajian pustaka. Adapun tujuan dari penulisan ini adalah untuk mengumpulkan data sebayak-banyaknya tentang bidat-bidat apa saja yang tidak mengakui bahwa Yesus adalah Firman Allah yang menjadi manusia. Berdasarkan penelitian ini ditemukan fakta bahwa kehadiran bidat-bidat ini ditengah gereja benar adanya dan sudah banyak menyesatkan orang Kristen. Hal ini ditandai adanya penolakan terhadap finalitas Yesus. Akan tetapi teologi Kristen secara jelas menilai apa yang diungkapkan oleh para bidat merupakan sebuah kekeliruan. Yesus yang mereka ajarkan adalah Yesus yang lain. Yesus adalah Firman Allah yang sudah eksis sejak kekekalan bersama dengan Bapa dan Roh Kudus. Praeksitensi Yesus tanpa batas waktu. Dia adalah Pencipta alam semesta dengan segala isinya dan yang berkuasa atasnya. Kata Kunci: perumpamaan; Lukas; sosial

Crónicas de mi insomnio
Authors: Pérez Díaz Carlos Eduardo 
Published: February 2024

"Hoy les presento un libro con historias, anécdotas y reflexiones de mi vida y carrera profesional, son relatos simples, sencillos, con reflexiones personales e intimas. Este libro nació como un deseo de llevar un mensaje de alegría, esfuerzo y prosperidad. Mensajes para transformar la sociedad, no con grandes hazañas sino con pequeñas acciones, quisiera, sin ser pretencioso, una mejor sociedad con visión de servicio a nuestros semejantes, con sentido de lealtad a nuestros amigos y amor a nuestras familias. Algunas historias son alegres y quisiera que el lector sonriera, se divirtiera, pero como dice el comediante, "fácil es morir, difícil es hacer reir. El insomnio, ha sido mi eterno compañero, mi refugio de pensamiento, de tristeza, desespero y esperanza. Mis noches son muy largas, pero han sido estas horas, los momentos de introspección, trabajo, creación y nuevos retos. En un inicio el insomnio me generó depresión y ansiedad, luego se volvió mi cómplice y mi amigo. Las noches son momentos de oscuridad y de reflexión donde los pensamientos afloran con calma y permiten una meditación profunda, el tiempo donde he disfrutado mis éxitos y llorado mis fracasos. Espero la noche como el espacio de reencuentro espiritual, de sentir y disfrutar cada momento que he vivido. El insomnio terminará en el descanso eterno."
Associated of Variable Number Tandem Repeat (VNTR) Polymorphism in IL 4 with Susceptibility to Breast Cancer in Iraqi Women
Authors: Oun Noorhan Ihsan , Salih Maan Hasan 
Published: February 2024

Background: Breast cancer (BC) is common disease in the worldwide. Furthermore genetic mutations are known to enhance BC risk. The aim of this research is to examine correlation between the frequency of BC among Iraqi women and a variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) polymorphism in the IL-4 gene.
Methods: The study included 74 patients and 54 healthy women. To determine the genotypes of the variable number of tandem repeats (VNTR) in the IL-4 gene, a Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) technique was employed. Additionally, a complete blood count (CBC) test was conducted. Logistic regression analyses were performed to evaluate the association between genotypes and the occurrence of BC. Measures of association were computed in the form of odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI). The threshold for statistical significance in both CBC analysis and genotyping analysis was established as a p-value below 0.05.
Results: Among the CBC analysis, only the results of RBC (red blood cell count) and WBC (white blood cell count) showed statistical significance at the p = 0.05 level when comparing the study population. However, our investigation identified no association between IL-4 gene variant genotypes and breast cancer in Iraqi women. Other than tumor differentiation and body mass index(p < 0.05), no clinical or pathological features of BC patients were linked to variant genotypes.
Conclusion: The study concluded a substantial RBC and WBC relationship between patients and control. However, the IL-4 genetic variation does not appear to affect breast cancer development or progression. However, the IL-4 genetic variation may affect disease prognosis. Thus, more research is needed to determine how IL-4 genetic variation affects breast cancer prognosis.
Signorini's problem for the Bresse beam model with localized Kelvin-Voigt dissipation
Authors: Munoz Rivera Jaime E. , Baldez Carlos A. da Costa , Cordeiro Sebastiao M. S. 
Published: February 2024

We prove the existence of a global solution to Signorini's problem for the localized viscoelastic Bresse beam model (circular arc) with continuous and discontinuous constitutive laws. We show that when the constitutive law is continuous, the solution decays exponentially to zero, and when the constitutive law is discontinuous the solution decays only polynomially to zero. The method we use for proving our result is different the others already used in Signorini's problem and is based on approximations through a hybrid model. Also, we present some numerical results using discrete approximations in time and space, based on the finite element method on the spatial variable and the implicit Newmark method to the discretized the temporal variable.

Experiential Learning With Continuous Glucose Monitors: A Novel Curriculum for Volunteers in a Student-Run Free Clinic
Authors: Altman-Merino Annie E , Krishnapura Shreyas G , Aggarwal Sachin K , Terry Christopher , Wright Jordan , Weaver Eleanor O , Carew Babatunde , Miller Robert F , Lloyd Marguerite Cooper 
Published: February 2024

Background: Growing evidence suggests that medical students and faculty preceptors have limited familiarity with continuous glucose monitors (CGMs), which may negatively affect how care teams counsel patients and monitor the use of CGMs. Although studies have shown that structured training for care teams may improve knowledge and comfort with various healthcare tools, to our knowledge, no study has attempted to do so for CGMs.
Methods: We designed a user experience course for medical students and faculty mentors to address this gap at a student-run free clinic. This course allowed twenty participants to wear a CGM for two weeks and participate in three interactive didactic sessions and group reflections. We evaluated how knowledge and comfort with CGMs among participants changed after the course with a survey and focus group.
Results: The cohort showed improvement in self-reported confidence in using the device, teaching patients how to use the device, and interpreting data (p<0.001). The majority of participants demonstrated improvement across all survey domains with higher post-intervention scores than pre-intervention scores. Qualitative analysis of group reflections elucidated three primary themes across participant experiences: the emotional impact of wearing the device, attitude changes with prolonged use, and behavior modification in response to glucose data.
Conclusion: This novel educational initiative may improve knowledge about CGMs, ability to counsel patients to use the device, and understanding patients' experiences among medical students and faculty mentors. We plan to expand this educational opportunity to additional clinic volunteers, include patient perspectives, and share the curriculum with other student-run clinics.
Empty follicle syndrome – an assisted reproductive technology disaster: A case report
Authors: Kamau Reuben K. , Koigi Paul Kamau , Koigi Mary K. , Anitha Francis , Moniz Gerald 
Published: February 2024

Background: The primary objective of individualized controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (iCOS) is to obtain sufficient numbers of good-quality oocytes. This is pursued to increase the chances of obtaining good-quality embryos following fertilization to restore fertility potential.
Case presentation: A 34-year-old nulliparous presented with a 3-year history of primary infertility. A thorough investigation of the couple failed to definitively diagnose the cause of infertility. Following a satisfactory response to controlled ovarian hyperstimulation, meticulous follicular aspiration yielded no oocytes. Given the high cost of treatment and the inherent risk of recurrence of the problem for repeat stimulation, the couple opted for oocyte donation. This decision was implemented, and the treatment process was continued.
Discussion: Empty follicle syndrome (EFS) is a rare but frustrating complication of in vitro fertilization. Without viable alternatives, this usually leads to cycle cancelation. Repeat stimulation often yields similar results although in some cases dual triggering may confer benefits.
Conclusion: Although rare, there is value in considering the possibility of EFS in women undergoing iCOS and counseling the patients accordingly.

Published: February 2024

Walking is part of the traveler's movement and is the simplest means of transportation, but it is in a weak position and prone to conflict or accidents when they mix with other modes of transportation. To protect pedestrians, special facilities are needed, one of which is a crossing place (zebra crossing) that is able to serve according to pedestrian needs. Based on Law No. 22 of 2009 concerning Traffic Polytechnic Land Transportation Bali 46 Cross and Road Transportation, article 131 paragraph (2), it is stated that "Pedestrians are entitled to priority when crossing the road at the crosswalk". One of the important meanings for human life is the Way. Roads are used as a means of transportation that has a very useful role in efforts to develop human life. In 2018, based on statistical data, the number of motorized vehicle users in Indonesia is increasing every year to reach 146,858,759 units. The impact that occurs is that there are many Zebra Cross roads damaged with conditions that are very troubling and worrying for road users. Among the causes of zebra crossing being damaged will be traffic accidents where the vehicle does not lag obeying the path of the vehicle following the predetermined lane. So this study detects image processing with the Laplacian of Gaussian algorithm with edge detection making it easier for the government to improve traffic signs of zebra crossing images on highways that are worthy of improvement so that accidents do not occur. The results of this study illustrate the image of being able to see damaged zebra crossings with calculations of the Laplacian of Gaussian algorithm.

THE STUDY BY GAS-LIQUID CHROMATOGRAPHY OF THE TOTAL CONTENT OF ALKANES, ARENES AND ISOPRENOID ALKANES IN PETROLEUM PRODUCTS BEFORE AND AFTER THEIR BURNOUT IN FIRES
Authors: Yatsenko Larisa 
Published: February 2024

The compositions of petroleum products obtained from different oil fractions were studied by gas-liquid chromatography. It is shown, that in order to establish the nature of the oil product before and after exposure to high temperatures in the fire-technical examination,
it is necessary, along with the identification of peaks on chromatograms by chromatographic parameters, to process them using the internal normalization method. To establish the nature of the oil product and the fraction of oil from which this oil product was obtained, it was proposed to group all identified hydrocarbons into three main groups (alkanes, arenes, isoprenoids).
To determine from which fraction of oil the oil product was obtained, it is sufficient to estimate the relative content of the selected groups.
For petroleum products of the gasoline fraction, the group of arenes is the predominant group, and for petroleum products of the medium distillate fractions of oil, the group of alkanes predominates in their compositions. To determine the type of petroleum product both before and after exposure to high temperatures in the fire zone, it is sufficient to determine the alkane whose content in the alkane group is maximum, as well as to analyze the content of arene subgroups and identify the arene subgroup whose contribution to the composition of the oil product is maximum. In addition, to confirm that an oil product belongs to gasoline or diesel fuels, it is sufficient to detect in its composition a group of tetramethylbenzenes or alkanes of an isoprenoid structure, respectively.
