Background We identified patients treated at our Burn Center over a 14-year period.Material and methods The following data were studied: the annual and total number of patients, the number of patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and the Burn Unit (BU), gender and age of the patients, the epidemiology of burn injury, percentage of total body surface area (TBSA) burned, percentage of inhalation injury, percentage of full thickness burns, mortality.Results It was revealed that the annual number of patients averaged 730 (692; 747). The proportion of those hospitalized to the ICU was 35–49%, and 51–65% to the BU. These figures did not differ significantly (all p>0.05; Fisher exact test [FET]). The male to female ratio was 2.3-1.6:1. The age of the patients increased from 44 (31; 59) to 48 (33; 62) years (p=0.003; M–W test). The percentage of the etiological factors changed: flame burns accounted for 60% of cases in 2006 and 34% of cases in 2019 (p<0.001; FET). The number of patients with scalds increased from 18% in 2006 to 33% in 2019 (p=0.023; FET). The proportion of patients with inhalation injury without burns did not exceed 15% for the entire study period. Median burn area among all hospitalized decreased by almost twice from 2006 to 2019: total area from 12% to 7% TBSA (p<0.001; M–W test); superficial, from 10 to 6% TBSA (p<0.001; M–W); deep burns, from 9 to 3% TBSA (p<0.001; M–W). In patients in the ICU, the median of the total burned area was 20–25% TBSA, the area of superficial burns prevailed without a statistically significant difference between 2006 and 2019. (p=0.285; M–W test). The median area of deep burns gradually decreased by more than twice: from 15% TBSA in 2006 to 7% TBSA in 2019 (p<0.001; M–W test). For the period from 2006 to 2019 overall mortality in the burn center decreased from 16.7% to 7.4% due to a 2.4-fold decrease of mortality from 16.3% to 6.9% in the ICU (p<0.001; FET). In the BU, for the entire period it was 0.4-1.6%. In 2019, the highest mortality of 27% was observed in combined burns and inhalation injury (InI) followed by InI without burns (13.6%), and then came electrical injury (11.8%).Conclusion For 14 years, mortality has decreased by more than twice. The highest number of deaths was observed among patients with skin burns and InI, InI without burns and electrical injury. Annual number of admissions in ICU and BU, gender ratio remained steady. The median area of total burns decreased by 2-3 times, the median area of deep burns in patients in the ICU decreased by 2 times. The median age of burn patients increased by 4 years and began to refer to the middle age group according to the WHO classification.

Background poisonings with corrosive substances in russia retains a high proportion among acute exotoxemias. They are accompanied by severe homeostasis disorders with changes in hemorheological pattern in particular.Aim of study To evaluate the effect of the enteral correction of homeostasis (ech) on the hemorheological patterns in patients with acute poisoning with corrosive substances.Material and methods Patients with chemical burns of the mucous membrane of the esophagus of the 2nd-3rd degree and stomach of the 2nd-3rd degree who were treated at the n.v. sklifosovsky research institute for emergency medicine in 2017–2021 were examined. In 73 patients, ech was performed (study group), and 35 patients received standard treatment (comparison group). Indicators of hemorheological status were examined on the 1st, 3rd and 5th days in the course of ongoing therapy, as well as before and after intestinal lavage in patients of the study group. Statistical data analysis was carried out using the statistica 10 software package (statsoft, inc., usa).Results The first stage of ech, characterized by the use of intestinal lavage, has no negative effect on hematocrit, plasma viscosity and erythrocyte aggregation indices.The use of a glucosated enteral solution led to a decrease in plasma viscosity under normal hematocrit conditions at all follow-up periods. In patients of both groups, there was a decrease in blood viscoelasticity under conditions of high shear potential at all stages of the study, which indicates violations of the deformability of red blood cells. This process is more significant in individuals of the comparison group. The conducted studies have shown that standard treatment and ech for poisoning with corrosive substances have a corrective effect on the hemorheological profile aimed at stabilizing blood circulation, however, according to a number of indicators, the effect of ech is more pronounced.Conclusion The program of enteral correction of homeostasis and standard treatment for poisoning with corrosive substances have a unidirectional effect on the indicators of the hemorheological pattern. In cases of application of the enteral homeostasis correction program, the outstripping improvement of the majority of the studied hemorheological parameters is seen.

Published: September 2022

Background: Poor blood pressure control is a global challenge and male hypertensives constitute an important group of patients that should be treated with utmost priority because previous studies have associated male gender with high prevalence of hypertension and poor blood control. Aim: This was to determine the level of blood pressure (BP) control and to find the relationship between the demographic, clinical and laboratory parameters that can predict uncontrolled BP among male hypertensives. Material and Method: This study was a hospital-based descriptive cross-sectional descriptive study done in Family Medicine department of the University of Teaching Hospital, Ilorin, Kwara State, Nigeria. The study population was male hypertensives. Interviewers’ questionnaires were used to obtain information and clinical measurements such as BP and body mass index were taken with appropriate instruments. Laboratory measurement including fasting blood glucose and fasting lipid profile were also carried out. Data was collected using the Version 20 software packages of the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS-20). Result: About half (48%) of the respondents had control atBP ≤140/90 mmHg, 34.9% at ≤130/80 and only 15.7% had optimum BP control. The diastolic BP control 154(67.2%) was higher than those with systolic BP control 107(46.2%). Multiple regression analysis shows that only increasing age (P value = 0.003) and low level of education (P value = 0.009) can predict the development of uncontrolled hypertension. Conclusion: This study shows that there is poor BP control among male hypertensives and increasing age and low level of education can predict uncontrolled hypertension.

Abstract
In recent years, with the increase in global awareness of environmental problems, the term “sustainability” became more important for apparel manufacturers and consumers. Therefore, recycling of wastes plays a significant role in environmental sustainability by converting the wastes into raw materials. This study focused on recycled cotton-included fabrics, to evaluate the effect of these fabrics on thermal comfort properties. In this context, first, the 45% recycled cotton/55% polyester blended yarns and 50% virgin cotton/50% blended yarns were obtained. Afterwards, single jersey and rib-structured fabrics were knitted using these yarns. The thermal comfort tests were performed on the fabrics and four long sleeve rounded neck shirts then were manufactured using these fabrics to test by the thermal manikin method. Results showed that the yarns including recycled cotton led to a decrease in the values in air permeability of the fabrics and in the effective clothing insulation of the garments. In contrast, it was observed that, including recycled cotton increased the thermal resistance values of the fabrics.
Donald Trump's Clemencies: Unconventional Acts, Conventional Justifications

Published: September 2022

Abstract
During his four years as President Donald Trump's use of the clemency power generated considerable controversy. Much scholarship documents the fact that he ignored the traditional procedures for reviewing and approving requests for pardons and commutations. Trump used clemency to favor a rogues gallery of cronies, celebrities and those whose crimes showed particular contempt for the law. However, few scholars have examined the justifications he offered when he granted pardons and commutations. This paper fills that gap. We argue that because the clemency power sits uneasily with democracy and the rule of law, when Presidents use this power they feel the need to supply justifications. We report on a study of Trump's clemency justifications that suggests that while his clemencies themselves were often controversial and his means of communicating about them unconventional, the reasons he gave for them were generally quite conventional and continuous with the justifications offered by his predecessors for their pardons and commutations.

Published: September 2022

Abstract
This paper focuses on evaluating the functional connectivity of naturally valuable habitats within the territory of the Jeseníky Protected Landscape Area (PLA). Analysis of functional connectivity was carried out for individual zones of classified nature preservation. The methodological approach that is applied is based on determining indicators for expressing the degree of the natural character of individual landscape segments (Nd), the distance to naturally valuable habitats (Dn), and a composite index Distance to Nature (D2N). The results for the individual zones and the PLA as a whole are mutually compared and consequently confronted with values for the territory of the entire Czech Republic. All three research questions, i.e. whether naturally valuable habitats prevail in the most valuable area in the first protected zone of the Jeseníky PLA, whether the distance to naturally valuable habitats in the first zone of the Jeseníky PLA is the shortest, and whether the territory of the Jeseníky PLA is better functionally interlinked when compared with the remaining territory of the Czech Republic (CR), were answered positively. The results highlight the need to assess the connectivity of natural habitats in the least protected zones of other PLAs in the Czech Republic and EU, to decide whether planning measures to support the ecological network are necessary.

Conclusion:
The obstacle in reconstructing Indonesian language learning at universities in the context of digitizing education at this time is the limited facilities and infrastructure in the form of internet quotas, internet signals or networks, wifi, facilities and infrastructure, response, and technology. Moreover, maximizing the blended learning method is the right strategy for overcoming the Various Obstacles in Reconstructing Indonesian Language Learning in Post-Covid-19 Universities.
Plasma cell myeloma - a unique case presenting as thyroid plasmacytoma and mimicking of medullary carcinoma: how to avoid pitfall in aspiration cytology
Authors: Coskun Sinem Kantarcioglu , Naldemir Asli , Gamsizkan Mehmet , Onal Binnur 
Published: September 2022

Background:
Extramedullary plasmacytoma (EMP) of the thyroid is a rare neoplasm that may present either as a solitary plasmacell tumor or involvement of plasma cell myeloma (PCM). In this report, we present a unique case of PCM presented as a thyroid mass without previous history, and initially misinterpreted as medullary carcinoma on fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC).

Case Presentation:
A 77-year-old female presented with shortness of breath and palpitation. Ultrasonography-guided FNAC from the large thyroid mass revealed hypercellular smears composed of monomorphic plasmacytoid cells, focally binucleated, scattered diffusely. Subsequent histopathological examination and immunohistochemistry of thyroidectomy specimen showed infiltration of sheets of plasma cells and diagnosed as EMP. Histology of the bone marrow displayed Lambda positive neoplastic plasma cells. A combination of singly distributed cells and aggregates with plasmacytoid morphology on a proteinous background without clinical suspicion and previous history leads to misinterpretation of FNAC.

Conclusion:
Clinical correlation, immunocytochemistry, and complementary cytological approach including various preparation techniques of staining are crucial for avoiding diagnostic pitfalls and the patients’ proper treatment.

Published: September 2022

Cutaneous collagenous vasculopathy (CCV) is clinically characterized by symmetrical, progressive telangiectasias and an absence of systemic involvement. Histopathology is distinct and helps in differentiation from other vascular conditions that result in cutaneous telangiectasias. We present a case of biopsy-proven CCV that had localized clearance following biopsy and was successfully treated with pulsed dye laser. A healthy 36-year-old male presented with a 10-year history of progressive, blanching telangiectasias of the legs, thighs, and forearms. A punch biopsy of a representative patch on the patient’s right thigh demonstrated telangiectasias with thickened PAS-positive vessel walls and a sparse perivascular lymphoid infiltrate, features consistent with a diagnosis of CCV. While there was localized clearance at the biopsy site and adjacent skin, the patient opted for treatment with PDL for his lesions elsewhere. After testing various PDL settings, greatest cosmetic improvement and minimal PIH was achieved with a spot size of 7 mm, pulse duration of 3 milliseconds (ms) and a fluence of 8 J/cm2. Continued resolution of CCV was noted at 24 months. We present this case to underscore the potential efficacy of PDL in the treatment of CCV.
