Pancreatitis, Panniculitis, and Polyarthritis Syndrome as an Indication for Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography
Authors: Ajose Idowu , Mills Krystal , Hilscher Moira 
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACT
Pancreatic diseases, including pancreatitis, may be associated with skin manifestations, and prompt recognition is crucial for diagnosis and prognosis. Pancreatic panniculitis is an uncommon dermatologic condition occurring in only 0.3%–3% of pancreatic diseases. Very rarely, the triad of pancreatitis, panniculitis, and polyarthritis syndrome can be observed. Of the scant cases in the literature, most patients received treatment with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and/or steroids. To our knowledge, this is the first case to outline an endoscopic approach for pancreatitis, panniculitis, and polyarthritis syndrome in the setting of a pseudocyst.
Another Crohn's Disease Mimicker: A Case of Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitor-Induced Intestinal Angioedema
Authors: Adam Mohammad , Tselovalnikova Tatiana , Evans Aron 
Published: February 2025

ABSTRACT
Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors are a common cause of drug-induced angioedema, which rarely affects the gut. We present a 32-year-old White woman with Crohn's disease on lisinopril experiencing 1 year of episodic abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting, prompting multiple steroid tapers and a switch in biologic therapy. She was hospitalized and was profoundly hypotensive on arrival. Initial imaging showed marked small bowel wall thickening and free fluid in the abdomen. She had rapid symptomatic and radiographic improvement after only 24 hours and was diagnosed with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor-induced intestinal angioedema, an important Crohn's disease mimicker that may lead to unwanted management if unrecognized.

Published: February 2025

In challenging situations like the Covid-19 pandemic, MSME entrepreneurs are among the affected parties. However, the development and efforts to recover have become a primary demand for MSME entrepreneurs to survive in difficult circumstances. Coupled with changes in consumer habits and preferences, known as the "new normal," it has become a new era that forces MSME entrepreneurs to face a situation full of ambiguity. This study employs purposive sampling to select participants, specifically MSME actors in the city of Palembang who reside in the area, resulting in a total of 150 MSME participants with a variety of product types. This research discusses how the risk-taking propensity of MSME entrepreneurs is influenced by their tolerance ambiguity and conscientiousness. The findings revealed a significant role of tolerance ambiguity in risk-taking propensity (p<0.01), but no significant role of conscientiousness in risk-taking propensity was found.

Published: February 2025

Amid the limitations of honorary teachers regarding welfare demands, it shows that there is still a sense of satisfaction and happiness even though the lack of income is a burden and an obstacle. These feelings indicate subjective well-being which not only influenced by material but also internal dispositions. The study aimed to examine the effect of the gratitude trait on subjective well-being directly or indirectly through the mediation of the gratitude state. Participants are honorary teachers in Surakarta with the required sample size of 122 - 144 people. Measurements were made using the subjective well-being scale, the gratitude trait scale, and the gratitude state scale. The data were tested using path analysis model regression analysis based on the procedure of the Baron & Kenny mediator. The results showed a greater role contribution to the direct effect (βc' = 0.326) of the gratitude trait on subjective well-being than the indirect effect through the mediation of the gratitude state (βab = 0.068). These results provide an overview of the subjective well-being of honorary teachers associated with the gratitude trait and the gratitude state.

A Comparatives Study of How Social Media Influences The Buying Motivation of Gen Y and Gen Z
Authors: Novita Dian , Lina Lia Febria 
Published: February 2025

This study primarily conducted an in-depth investigation to obtain information about factors that make the young generation purchase smartphones influenced by social media. The analysis focused on the millennial or the 'Me' generation (Gen Y) and the 'True' generation (Gen Z). These two generations represent the present-day dominant youth cohort. This qualitative study utilized the technique of conducting semi-structured interviews for data collection. No differences were found in Gen Z's and Y's smartphone purchasing motivations. The buying decisions of both generations were equally and materially influenced by genuine reviews on social media, especially content in the form of social media live streams such as YouTube and TikTok videos, especially when well-known influencers conveyed pertinent information. The interviews revealed the distinctive features of the two generations studied: they are rational in making purchase decisions and consider both quality and price. Unlike Gen Y, Gen Z does not like to compare new products against other or previous products because it takes advantage of its proximity to the manufacturing company to obtain adequate information about a product. Practically, it can be a reference for smartphone retailers to better understand youth purchase behavior.

Published: February 2025

Abstract

Objectives
Although existing cytopathological examination is considered essential for the diagnosis of malignant serous effusions, its accuracy is pretty low. Tumor specific protein 70 (SP70), which is highly expressed on human tumor cell membrane, was identified in our previous study. This study aimed to explore whether SP70 targeted tumor cell isolation technology with immunomagnetic beads can improve the accuracy of cytopathological examination.

Methods
Cytopathological analysis with SP70 targeted tumor cell isolation technology was used in this study. In total, 255 cases were enrolled. Serous effusions were analyzed by both existing cytopathological examination and the new cytopathological analysis concurrently.

Results
The sensitivities of existing cytopathological examination and the new cytopathological analysis were 51.26 % and 85.43 %, respectively, while the specificities were 100 % for both. This new cytopathological analysis demonstrated a higher interobserver agreement with malignant diagnosis than the existing cytopathological examination (kappa coefficient: 0.720 vs. 0.316, p<0.001). In addition, it achieved superior diagnostic efficacy for malignancy differentiation compared to existing cytopathological examination (AUC: 0.927 vs. 0.756, p<0.001). The follow-up results showed that 74 malignant cases with final clinical diagnosis were positive only with the new cytopathological analysis. Among these cases, there were 58 negative and 16 atypical by the existing cytopathological examination. In these malignant cases, 74.3 % (55/74) had been confirmed to have serosa metastasis based on radiographic evidence, and 73.7 % (28/38) harbored tumor hotspot mutations.

Conclusions
As illustrated in this work, cytopathological analysis with SP70 targeted tumor cell isolation technology can improve the accuracy of existing cytopathological examination prominently.
Prevalence and detection of citrate contamination in clinical laboratory
Authors: Lorde Nathan , Gama Rousseau , Kalaria Tejas 
Published: February 2025

Abstract

Objectives
To study the prevalence of trisodium citrate (Na3Citrate) contamination in hypernatraemic serum samples by direct measurement of citrate and to evaluate the performance of indirect markers for identification of Na3Citrate contamination.

Methods
Serum citrate was measured in all hypernatraemic serum samples (sodium ≥148 mmol/L) over a three-month period. The performance of serum chloride, sodium-chloride gap, indirect ion selective electrode (ISE)-direct ISE sodium disparity and osmolar gap in identification of Na3Citrate contaminated samples was assessed against the ‘gold-standard’ direct citrate measurement.

Results
In total, 27 Na3Citrate contaminated samples were identified based on serum citrate concentration ≥1.5 mmol/L. The prevalence of citrate contamination was 3.1 % of hypernatraemic samples (n=875) and 0.017 % of all samples received for urea and electrolyte analysis (n=153,404). Most contaminated samples were from patients receiving haemodialysis (59.3 %), and the rest from inpatients. Cut-offs to give 100 % sensitivity were chloride ≤105 nmol/L (specificity 93.4 %), sodium-chloride gap ≥47 mmol/L (specificity 95.3 %), indirect ISE-direct ISE sodium disparity ≥3 mmol/L (specificity 81.9 %), and osmolar gap ≥39 mOsm/kg (specificity 2.8 %).

Conclusions
Trisodium citrate contamination is uncommon. Most contaminated samples were from patients receiving haemodialysis, likely because of contamination with citrate catheter locking solution. Screening with serum chloride or sodium-chloride gap can confidently exclude Na3Citrate contamination in over 90 % of hypernatraemic samples, and in nearly all samples with sodium ≥155 mmol/L if metabolic alkalosis has been excluded. In the remaining samples, Na3Citrate contamination can only be definitively confirmed or excluded by measurement of serum citrate. We propose algorithms to identify spurious hypernatraemia.

Abstract
Potentially toxic elements like Cr+6 and Ni+2 cause severe health hazards. Therefore, the current work was aimed at cleaning water using Prosopis glandulosa raw sawdust (SD) and its derived biochar (AC). Both the adsorbents were characterized via SEM, FTIR spectroscopy, EDX, and TGA and were applied for the effective removal of Ni(ii) and Cr(vi) at optimum values of experimental conditions, and the mechanism was assessed via adsorption isotherm and kinetic models. The correlation coefficient R
2 confirmed pseudo-second-order kinetics and preferred Freundlich isotherm model. Maximum removal of Cr(iv) was obtained at a pH of 4.0, a bio-sorbent concentration of 0.8 g·L−1, and a temperature of 50°C for 50 min with a metal concentration of 110 ppm, while maximum removal of Ni(ii) was obtained for a contact time of 70 min with a metal concentration of 130 ppm in the above-mentioned experimental conditions. The results of the isotherms and kinetic model revealed that metal adsorption processes involved multilayer formation on the biosorbent’s heterogeneous surface. Also, their thermodynamic investigation showed that the adsorption process is spontaneous and exothermic and, therefore, can be effectively utilized to remove Cr and Ni from water.

Published: February 2025

Objective:
This study was aimed at exploring pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) epidemiological characteristics and trends in China from 2016 to 2022, to provide evidence for optimizing strategies and measures for tuberculosis prevention and control.

Methods:
Data on PTB in China reported from 2016 to 2022 were obtained from the Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. Descriptive epidemiological methods were used to analyze the population distribution, and temporal and spatial distribution (also known as the three-dimensional distribution in epidemiology). The chi-square test was used for comparisons between groups. Joinpoint regression was used to analyze the temporal trends in PTB notification rates, and ArcGIS 10.3 software was used to visualize the results.

Results:
In total, 5,141,468 cases of PTB were reported in China from 2016 to 2022, among which 39.89% were bacteriologically positive. Joinpoint regression analysis indicated that the PTB notification rate showed an overall downward trend from 2016 to 2022, with 2018 as the inflection point. The annual percentage change (APC) was −0.72% (95% CI: −4.78% to 2.96%, P<0.001) from 2016 to 2018, and −9.26% (95% CI: −11.76% to −8.08%, P<0.001) from 2018 to 2022; the overall average annual percentage change (AAPC) was −6.50% (95% CI: −7.56% to −5.51%, P<0.001). The population distribution indicated that the male to female ratio was 2.19:1.00. Individuals older than 65 years accounted for 25.93%. Occupation distribution analysis indicated that farmers accounted for more than 60%. The PTB notification rate showed the following spatial distribution: western region > central region > eastern region. Guangdong province had the highest number of reported PTB cases.

Conclusions:
From 2016 to 2022, the PTB notification rate showed an overall downward trend in China. Men, older people, and farmers were the majority groups. The western region and Guangdong province were hotspots that must be addressed. In the future, the Tuberculosis prevention and control strategies should be optimized according to epidemiological characteristics.
Escape from retribution: the collaborator’s survival strategy (based on the materials of the archival investigation of Gustav Yakobovsky)
Authors: Chepurko O. O. 
Published: February 2025

The article is devoted to the fate of Gustav Gustavovich Yakobovsky, an ethnic German and a Soviet citizen, who initially started his career in education and science, but during Nazi occupation of Ukraine took the path of collaborationism. The unremarkable life of the Soviet intellectual changed in 1941 with the outbreak of the German-Soviet military conflict. At the beginning of the German occupation of Dnipropetrovsk, he got a job as a translator at the Einsatzgruppe under the guidance of the SD Erich Bing, where he was working from October 1941 till March 1942. Hereinafter, from the beginning of 1942 he was as a personal interpreter of the head of the SD of Dnipropetrovsk. Also, in March–September 1942 Jakobovsky was working in the ІІІ department of the SD, and from September 1942 till August 1943 – in the IV department of the SD in Dnipropetrovsk. The article focuses on the period of G. Yakobovsky’s residence in Germany. It dates from August 1943 until his arrest in January 1948 by the 6th operational sector of Ministry of State Security (Saxony). During this period, G. Yakobovsky tried to legalize on the territory of Germany: to find work, to get German citizenship and to arrange his personal life. All these could allow him to hide his past, to avoid forced return to the USSR and be responsible for previously committed acts. Gustav Yakobovsky’s attempts to realize his plans and the reasons for his failures are shown.
