Preservation of information in Sri Lanka: A historical perspective
Authors: Dehigama Kanchana 
Published: December 2022

The article attempts to explore the shape of the preservation of information in Sri Lanka, from the Early Iron Age (1000-800 BC) to the beginning of Colonial Rule. Under the qualitative approach, the historical research method is employed in the study, while content analysis was used as a research tool to determine the presence of certain words, themes, or concepts within given qualitative data. Based on my focus, primary sources and secondary data were used to elicit data. Buckland’s concept of information-as-thing was used to streamline the demarcations made by different collections handled. The perspective of the study is limited to the published translations and transcriptions of inscriptions, literary sources, and copper plate charters. Themes and concepts such as the selection of media, extending the life span of information, changing the format, or keeping the same information in different formats, and reformatting for information preservation emerged from the literature review and content analysis. Substantiations prove that effective preservation of information has ever never been in flow in Sri Lankan history. Well before the cultural institutions were established under colonial rule, ancient Sri Lankans were familiar with the concepts of libraries, archives, and museums. Information was converted, reformatted, and duplicated through different media consciously, while foreign invasions, internal conflicts, natural and man-made disasters as well as the introduction of printing challenged the existence of the indigenous system of information preservation. The study will provide a rich foundation for Archaeology, history, and Information Science students and scholars to understand what happened in the past to determine and expand their research horizons. The research highlights gaps and avenues for future research in this genre.

Published: December 2022

Objectives: This study aims to evaluate the presence and factors related to insulin resistance (IR) in untreated very early rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients.
Patients and methods: Between June 2020 and July 2021, a total of 90 RA patients (29 males, 61 females; mean age: 49.3±10.2 years; range 24 to 68 years) and 90 age-, sex- and body mass index (BMI)-matched controls (35 males, 55 females; mean age: 48.3±5.1 years; range 38 to 62 years) were included. Homeostatic model assessment was applied to evaluate IR (HOMA-IR) and β-cell function (HOMA-β). Disease activity score 28 (DAS28) was used to estimate disease activity. Lipid profile, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), glucose, insulin, C-reactive protein (CRP), and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) were measured. Logistic regression analysis was performed to investigate the relationship between the IR and clinical features of RA patients.
Results: The RA patients had higher HOMA-IR values (p<0.001) and adverse lipid profile. The IR was positively correlated with age (r=0.35, p<0.01), CRP (r=0.42, p<0.001), ESR (r=0.33, p<0.01), disease duration (r=0.28, p<0.01), and DAS28 (r=0.50, p<0.001). The DAS28, CRP and age, but not sex and menopausal status, were independently associated with IR.
Conclusion: Insulin resistance was present in untreated very early RA patients. The DAS28, CRP, and age were independent predictors for the presence of IR. Based on these findings, RA patients should be evaluated early for the presence of IR to reduce the risk of metabolic diseases.

Authors: Li Hejun , Zheng Yiqing , Chen Ling , Lin Shunping 
Published: December 2022

Objectives: This study aims to the prevalence of antinuclear antibody (ANA)-negative systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and their clinical characteristics in a large single-center SLE inception cohort to provide guidance for early diagnosis.
Patients and methods: Between December 2012 and March 2021, the medical records of a total of 617 firstly diagnosed SLE patients (83 males, 534 females; median age [IQR]: 33+22.46 years) who fulfilled the selection criteria were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into groups with ANA-negative SLE and ANA-positive SLE, or with prolonged use of glucocorticoids or immunosuppressants (SLE-1) and without (SLE-0). Demographic, clinical characteristics, and laboratory features were collected.
Results: The total prevalence of ANA-negative SLE patients was 2.11% (13/617). The prevalence of ANA-negative SLE in SLE-1 (7.46%) was significantly higher than that in SLE-0 (1.48%) (p<0.01). The ANA-negative SLE patients had a higher prevalence of thrombocytopenia (84.62%) than ANA-positive SLE patients (34.27%). As with ANA-positive SLE, ANA-negative SLE also had a high prevalence of low complement (92.31%) and anti-double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (anti-dsDNA) positivity (69.23%). The prevalence of medium-high titer anti-cardiolipin antibody (aCL) IgG (50.00%) and anti-ß2 glycoprotein I (anti-ß2GPI) (50.00%) of ANA-negative SLE was significantly higher than that of ANA-positive SLE (11.22% and 14.93%, respectively).
Conclusion: The prevalence of ANA-negative SLE is very low, but it exists, particularly under the influence of prolonged use of glucocorticoids or immunosuppressants. Thrombocytopenia, low complement, positive anti-dsDNA, and medium-high titer antiphospholipid antibody (aPL) are the main manifestations of ANA-negative SLE. It is necessary to identify complement, anti-dsDNA, and aPL in ANA-negative patients with rheumatic symptoms, particularly thrombocytopenia.
Catachrestic Divergence:

Published: December 2022

“The Monkey Puzzle” is one of the most interesting as well as intimidatingly complex poems of Marianne Moore. It envelops Moore’s attitude as an objectivist poet moving towards the relationship between language and the world. The scarce critical attention it has received does not reflect the high status it should have in Moore’s oeuvre. The present paper builds on the body of research that does exist, and from there moves on to a detailed analysis of the poem in an attempt to show how a catachrestic divergence from significatory processes is at work all throughout this poem. The reinterpretation of the poem through a focus on its catachrestic bounciness will not only shed light on some of its most complex imagery, but will also show how a philosophical filament runs through the whole poem and invites the readers to trespass the boundaries of the significatory walls drawn around our imagination.
Lessons of Selborne:
Authors: Jajtner Tomáš 
Published: December 2022

The following paper analyses a classic work of 18th century nature writing, Gilbert White’s (1720–1793) Natural History of Selborne (1789). It contextualizes the work in the cultural and philosophical discussions of its era, and stresses White’s “economy of nature” as a continuum of spiritual, aesthetic, and economic dimensions of nature. The essay argues that this complexity presents the English naturalist’s unique contribution to the rise of nature writing and ecological thought during the emergence of Romanticism. The final discussion here deals with the reception of White’s work beginning in the late 1960s and its significance within the ecocritical debates of our day.

Sirenomelia is a rare and fatal congenital defect characterized by varying degrees of lower limb fusion, thoracolumbar spinal anomalies, sacrococcygeal agenesis, genitourinary, and anorectal atresia.There is a strong association with maternal diabetes where relative risk is 1:200-250 and up to 22% of fetuses with this anomaly will have mothers with diabetes.A 34-year-old unbooked G3P2L2 at 35 weeks 5 days of gestational age with previous two live vaginal birth was admitted in the labor room with pain in the abdomen. She had no history of prior antenatal care and belonged to a tribal community with lower socioeconomic status.She was otherwise healthy with no known history of genetic or congenital anomaly in her family. Baby not cried after birth , no activity and hypotonia present . Immediately intubated with ET NO 3 and bag and tube ventilation given and shifted to NICU and put on ACMV mode of ventilationAnomalies observed in sirenomelia are described as the most severe form of caudal regression syndrome. Fusion of the lower extremities, presence of single umbilical and persistent vitelline artery are major features of sirenomelia . Although the primary molecular defect resulting in sirenomelia remains unclear, two main pathogenic hypotheses namely the vascular steal hypothesis and the defective blastogenesis hypothesis are proposed.Sirenomelia is a rare and lethal congenital anomaly. When diagnosed antenatally, termination should be offered. However, prevention is possible and should be the goal.

Bhaishajya Kalpana- the pharmaceutical science of Ayurveda mainly deals with the planning and preparation of medicines. As per Ayurveda, an ideal drug is that one which can process into different forms. Though Ayurveda claims that no material is incapable of being utilized as medicine, none of them can be employed in the form in which they are available because they are not appetizing or easily absorbed by the human system. In this modern era, society prefers medicines which are more palatable, available, less dose and with more shelf life. In this view, as per the need of time, there is a need to modify the classical formulations in order to improve its characters and to make more acceptable.
In this present study, Tiladi churna, a pure herbal formulation having minimum ingredients and its granules were prepared in departmental pharmacy. Churna Kalpana is considered as an Upakalpana of Kalka Kalpana which is one among the basic Panchavidha Kashaya Kalpana mentioned in classical texts while Khanda Kalpana or granules are the preparations added after 20th century which have more palatability and acceptance. Here both Tiladi Churna and granules were then compared to determine the efficiency in terms of method, duration of preparation and also in terms of organoleptic and physical parameters

Published: December 2022

Objective: Discriminating simple from complicated diverticulitis solely on clinical bases is challenging. The aim of this study was to identify clinical predictive factor for the need for invasive treatment for patients presenting with acute diverticulitis in the emergency room.
Material and Methods: The records of all patients, who were discharged from a university hospital between January 2010 and March 2018 with “diverticulitis” diagnosis, were reviewed. Data collected included clinical features, whether this was a first or recurrent episode, WBC, and Hinchey score. Patients were divided into conservative and invasive treatment groups. Groups were compared by age, sex, BMI, fever, WBC and CT findings. Hinchey score groups were also compared by age, sex, BMI, fever, WBC.
Results: A total of 809 patients were included. Mean age was 60.6 years, with 10% below 40 years. Most patients were treated conservatively (95.9%) while only 4.1% were treated invasively. WBC at presentation was significantly higher in those who required invasive treatment in comparison with the conservative group (13.72 vs. 11.46K/uL, p= 0.024). A statistically significant higher WBC was found among patients with a higher Hinchey score (13.16 vs 11.69, p< 0.005). No difference between the groups was found in terms of age, sex, fever or BMI.
Conclusion: This study showed that patients who present with acute diverticulitis and an elevated WBC are prone to a more severe disease and a higher Hinchey score. Prudence should be taken with these patients, and CT scan is warranted as there is a greater chance that invasive treatment will be required.
Trends in the Manifestation of Terrorism Inspired by the Radical Islamic Discourse From Its Emergence to the Present Day
Authors: Hasković Edita 
Published: December 2022

This paper analyzes the most important trends in the manifestation of terrorism inspired by radical Islamic discourse since its appearance in the Middle East and North Africa in the 1980s until the present day.
Considering the very specific historical context of this region, an insight into it was unavoidable, in an attempt to identify the key factors that favored the emergence of this type of terrorism, as well as its gradual affirmation in regional and international frameworks.
The trends in the manifestation of terrorism inspired by radical Islamic discourse are viewed in this paper through two main time periods. The first covers the period from 1980. to 2000, when this type of terrorism began to appear in the countries of the MENA region, with gradual regional affirmation and expressed ambitions to extend the radius of activity of the newly formed radical Islamist organization to the international level. The second period commenced after the brutal terrorist attacks on American targets on September 11, 2001 and the declaration of war on terrorism, which, based on the indicators presented in this paper, inaugurated the era of progressive and extremely worrying rise of terrorism inspired by radical Islamic discourse, especially from the moment the entry of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) onto the international stage in mid-June 2014.

According to mandate of Government Regulation Number 21 of 2021 concerning the Implementation of Spatial Planning, the Regional Government needs to synchronize the spatial utilization program (SPPR) with reference to the synchronization of programs that have been carried out by the Government. The output of these activities can be used as input in the preparation of the Regional Government Work Plan and also in the vision and mission of the Regional Head and RPJMD. The implementation of integrated infrastructure development in Tanjungpinang City is still experiencing various problems, including the lack of focus on regional targets that will be driven by infrastructure development, the synergism of infrastructure development programs between Regional Apparatus Organizations (OPD) within the Tanjungpinang City Government and the ineffectiveness of the infrastructure development budgeting system. To overcome these various problems, it is necessary to synchronize the annual/short-term space utilization program which is an integration document between the Tanjungpinang City regional development plan in 2023 and the spatial plan as the basis for compiling an infrastructure development plan for OPD in accordance with the Tanjungpinang City RTRW document. This is done so that the focus of regional targets and the synergy of infrastructure development programs can be achieved.
