Ventriculosinus shunts: their role in selected patients
Authors: Gabay Segev , Zhebrykov Dymtro , Constantini Shlomi , Roth Jonathan 
Published: December 2022

OBJECTIVE
Ventriculoperitoneal shunt placement is the most common treatment for hydrocephalus. However, most patients will require multiple shunt revisions over time. In cases of peritoneal shunt failure, the pleura and heart are alternative distal sites. Sinus shunts have been described but are not commonly used. The potential vascular complications, as well as inexperience with these shunts, make these tools less attractive. The goal of this study was to share the authors’ experience with ventriculosinus shunts (VSSs) in selected patients.

METHODS
Between December 2018 and February 2022, a total of 7 patients (1 adult, 6 children) underwent 11 surgeries for the placement of a VSS at the authors’ institution. Data regarding complications and shunt function were retrospectively collected and assessed, and a review of the literature was conducted.

RESULTS
The mean (± standard deviation) age at surgery was 11.9 ± 12.8 years (range 1.3–38.2 years). All patients had had previous shunt systems that failed and systemic conditions that made other distal sites less desirable. In all cases, a low-pressure differential valve was installed. Over a mean follow-up of 18 ± 9.8 months (range 9–39 months), 4 of the 7 patients underwent additional shunt revisions, 2 of whom had shunts placed at other sites. One patient had symptomatic partial sinus thrombosis, managed conservatively. During follow-up, 5 patients showed improvement in their symptoms of high intracranial pressure using the VSS. There were no severe complications of air embolism, bleeding, or infection.

CONCLUSIONS
VSSs may have a role to play in selected patients in whom more commonly used distal shunt locations have failed. Significant complications with these shunts are rare. Additional experience is needed to better understand the ideal catheter and placement locations.

Published: December 2022

OBJECTIVE
Spinal deformity surgery is associated with significant blood loss, often requiring the transfusion of blood and/or blood products. For patients declining blood or blood products, even in the face of life-threatening blood loss, spinal deformity surgery has been associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality. For these reasons, patients for whom blood transfusion is not an option have historically been denied spinal deformity surgery.

METHODS
The authors retrospectively reviewed a prospectively collected data set. All patients declining blood transfusion who underwent spinal deformity surgery at a single institution between January 2002 and September 2021 were identified. Demographics collected included age, sex, diagnosis, details of any prior surgery, and medical comorbidities. Perioperative variables included levels decompressed and instrumented, estimated blood loss, blood conservation techniques used, length of surgery, length of hospital stay, and complications from surgery. Radiographic measurements included, where appropriate, sagittal vertical axis correction, Cobb angle correction, and regional angular correction.

RESULTS
Spinal deformity surgery was performed in 31 patients (18 male, 13 female) over 37 admissions. The median age at surgery was 41.2 years (range 10.9–70.1 years), and 64.5% had significant medical comorbidities. A median of 9 levels (range 5–16 levels) were instrumented per surgery, and the median estimated blood loss was 800 mL (range 200–3000 mL). Posterior column osteotomies were performed in all surgeries, and pedicle subtraction osteotomies in 6 cases. Multiple blood conservation techniques were used in all patients. Preoperative erythropoietin was administered prior to 23 surgeries, intraoperative cell salvage was used in all, acute normovolemic hemodilution was performed in 20, and perioperative administration of antifibrinolytic agents was performed in 28 surgeries. No allogenic blood transfusions were administered. Surgery was staged intentionally in 5 cases, and there was 1 unintended staging due to intraoperative blood loss from a vascular injury. There was 1 readmission for a pulmonary embolus. There were 2 minor postoperative complications. The median length of stay was 6 days (range 3–28 days). Deformity correction and the goals of surgery were achieved in all patients. Two patients underwent revision surgery during the follow-up period: one for pseudarthrosis and the other for proximal junctional kyphosis.

CONCLUSIONS
With proper preoperative planning and judicious use of blood conservation techniques, spinal deformity surgery may be performed safely in patients for whom blood transfusion is not an option. The same techniques can be applied widely to the general population in order to minimize blood loss and the need for allogeneic blood transfusion.

Published: December 2022

At geothermal power plants, there is a problem that hot spring water pipes are blocked by the “hot spring scale”. The hot spring water used for geothermal power generation contains calcium, sulfur, and other substances, and the solid material called the “hot spring scale” adheres to the inside of steel pipes, significantly reducing the efficiency of steam transmission. In addition, there are maintenance costs to remove the “hot spring scale” inside the steel pipes. And it is important to evaluate the thickness of the hot spring scale inside the steel pipe. In this paper, a non-destructive sensor that is evaluated the thickness of the hot spring scale inside the steel tube from the outside of the steel pipe is proposed. The proposed sensor is consisted of a permanent magnet, an alternating excitation coil and an acceleration sensor. The static magnetic field from the permanent, and eddy current inside the steel pipe are generated the vibration in the steel pipe. And the thickness of the hot spring scale is evaluated from this vibration intensity. It is shown that the thickness of hot spring scale from 0 mm to 15 mm can be inspected by this proposed method. In addition, the proposed inspection principle of this inspection method will be clarified by 3-D electromagnetic force analysis and displacement analysis.

A primary SERS-active interconnected Si-nanocore network for biomolecule detection with plasmonic nanosatellites as a secondary boosting mechanism
Authors: Powell Jeffery Alexander , Venkatakrishnan Krishnan , Tan Bo 
Published: December 2022

<p>We report in this study, the development of a polymorphic biosensitive Si nanocore superstructure as a SERS biosensing platform. The polymorphic Si nanostructure in this study is created through ultrafast pulse laser ion-plume (UPLIP) formation and we observe enhanced detection of L-glutathione (GSH). The distinctive polymorphic nanomaterial chemistry of the interconnected network of Si nanocores and the nanonetwork architecture of this nanostructure act as a primary enhancement booster (EF similar to 6 x 10(3)). With the addition of Au/AuPd nanosatellites onto the surface of the polymorphic Si nanocore structure, a significant secondary boost in GSH enhancement is observed (EF similar to 1 x 10(5)). The addition of noble metal nanostructures results in multi-source SERS enhancement that combines linked resonance enhancement and SPR mechanisms that both contribute to the detection and boosting of the biomolecule analyte signal. With this polymorphic Si primary booster and noble metal nanosatellite secondary booster, we have demonstrated the viability of Si nanostructures for SERS biosensing applications.</p>

Single step self-enclosed fluidic channels via two photon absorption (TPA) polymerization
Authors: Jariwala Samir , Venkatakrishnan Krishnan , Tan Bo 
Published: December 2022

<p>In this paper, we demonstrate a simple, fast and single-step method for fabricating self-enclosed fluidic channels via TPA. Pairs of parallel, polymerized ribs are linked by the subsequent polymerization with correctly predetermined offset between the ribs. The region, where the radicals are initiated but its concentration is below the threshold, we called it a sub-activated region. The subsequent polymerization is triggered by the overlap of the sub-activated regions of the two adjacent ribs. The dimensions of the self-enclosed channels depends on the offset between ribs, the scan speed as well as the laser parameters such as pulse energy, pulsewidth and repetition rate. </p>

Published: December 2022

Dragon fruit is a unique fruit that is popular in Indonesia. besides having a sweet taste, this fruit also contains fiber, vitamins and minerals that are good for health. Dinas Pertanian Kabupaten Banyuwangi noted that the total dragon fruit production was 906,511.61 tons and the total productivity was 261.14 Kw/Ha in 2018. This shows that Kabupaten Banyuwangi is one of the largest producers of red dragon fruit in East Java Province. One of the problems in determining the quality of dragon fruit is choosing the harvest time, considering that dragon fruit is a non-climatic fruit. Non-climateric fruit is when we harvest fruit in its raw state, the fruit will never become ripe, so determining the harvest time for dragon fruit is very important. The determination made by paying discoloration and sizes of dragon fruit that is considered less effective. To overcome this, a system was created that was able to determine the level of dragon fruit maturity automatically by utilizing digital image processing techniques and intelligent systems. The parameters used are color features and GLCM texture features using angles 0°, 45°, 90° and 135° These features are parameters in the classification process using the Naïve Bayes method. Naïve bayes is able to classify the level of maturity of red dragon fruit (Hylocereus costaricensis) with an accuracy rate of 87.37%.

Published: December 2022

The soul is one the major psychological topics which has been explored by Muslim scholars. Among them was Ibn Sinā, a Muslim philosopher, who emphasized the study of the human soul. His mental conception of the soul was so well-developed that it received much attention and appreciation from later Islamic philosophers such as al-Ghazāli, Fakhruddin al-Rāzi, Ibn Rushd and Western scholars. This article explores Ibn Sinā's concept of the soul and its substance in Islamic education. The methodology employed is a literature review together with qualitative research using exploratory, descriptive, and analytical approaches. Ibn Sinā argued that the soul is a living spiritual substance inspiring the body and forms the infrastructure for acquiring knowledge and transforming it in real life. In contrast to the body, the soul is immaterial and eternal. Islamic education cannot be separated from the psychological elements elucidated by Ibn Sinā and must incorporate relevant psychological aspects in order to fully develop the potential of students towards becoming exemplary human beings (insān kāmil).

Published: December 2022

This study aims to determine the cause of injury to male junior athletes 10-11 years old. This Research uses qualitative descriptive methods. Research data sources include male junior athletes 10-11 years old. Data collection techniques use observations, questionnaires, and documentation. The results of this study are minor injuries (cramps, bruises on the legs, and abrasions) and severe injuries (injuries to muscles or tendons/strains, ligaments/sprain). Severe injury (dislocation of the shoulder joint, knee joint, thumb of the hand). So, it can be concluded that mild injury in badminton clubs in Indonesia, including on the criteria, is rare, with a percentage range of 43,3%. Then, minor injuries on the criteria occurred, with a percentage range of 66,67%. Severe injuries in the requirements rarely happen, with a percentage range of 33,33 %. Because injuries to male junior athletes aged 10-11 years are included in the criteria ever occurred due to joking with friends at training, the body is in an unhealthy state, the field is uneven or slippery, not serious when warming up, lack of warm-up, lack of concentration when playing badminton does not cool down after the completion of training, and cooling off not seriously.

The bees of the Meliponini tribe, known as stingless bees (SB), elaborate a distinct type of propolis, whose application potential is largely unexplored. Currently, there is some knowledge of the pharmacological activities of the propolis from Apis mellifera, however, little is known about the diversity and antimicrobial activity of Meliponini propolis, especially in relation to pathogens of agricultural importance. This study aimed to investigate the antimicrobial activity of the alcoholic extract of propolis from T. clavipes (Borá), S. bipunctata (Tubuna), and T. angustula (Jataí), comparing with the ethanolic extract from A. mellifera propolis. The autoclaved and non-autoclaved extracts were evaluated at the concentrations of zero, 1.6 %; 3.2 %; 6.4 %, and 12.0 % v/v. Fungal development was determined by measuring the mycelial diameter up to the fourteenth day of inoculation, with five replicates; the growth inhibition was calculated relative to the control. According to the results, the highest concentration of phenolic compounds and flavonoids was present in the ethanolic extract of A. mellifera propolis when compared to the SB extracts. The results indicated an inhibitory effect on the growth of the phytopathogens Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, Fusarium sp., Botryosphaeria sp., and Botrytis sp., mainly from 6.4 % and 12.0 % v/v when evaluated in the non-autoclaved medium, followed by the autoclaved medium. The fungus Botrytis sp. was the phytopathogen that suffered greater inhibition from 3.2 mL∙L-1, with the T. angustula propolis extract. The obtained results demonstrate that the alcoholic extracts of propolis from SB have the potential to control phytopathogenic fungi of agricultural interest.

İlk devirlerden itibaren Müslümanlar nezdinde kadılık görevini ancak liyakat sahibi kimselerin yerine getirebileceği prensipte benimsenmiş, kadıların yeterli ölçüde hukuk bilgisine ve melekesine sahip kimseler arasından seçilmesine özen gösterilmiş, bunu temin için medreseler kurulmuştur. Kadıların kazâî saha dışında idarî yapıda da etkin olduğu Osmanlı Devleti’nde medrese sistemi daha da geliştirilmiş, yüksek öğretim veren Sahn ve Süleymaniye medreseleri kurulmuş, hukukçular bu müesseselerin mezunları arasından atanmıştır. Zamanla bir çeşit stajyerlik mahiyetinde olan mülâzemet sistemi de uygulamaya konulmuş, görevini hakkıyla yapacak kimselerin kadı olarak seçilebilmesini temin için birçok tedbir alınmış, düzenlemeler yapılmıştır. Bunlar arasında bilhassa imtihanlar liyakatlı adayların belirlenmesinin en önemli yollarından biri olarak görülmüştür. Tanzimat’tan sonra ise sistemde köklü değişiklikler gerçekleştirilmiş, kadı atamalarında imtihana neticelerinin esas alınmasına dayanan yeni bir derecelendirme usulü uygulamaya konulmuştur. Kadı yetiştiren okullar kurulmuş, bu okullara girişte, tahsil esnasında ve mezuniyette oldukça ciddi şekilde yapıldığı anlaşılan imtihanlar icrâ edilmiştir.
İmtihanlar hiç şüphesiz ölçme ve değerlendirme faaliyetinin en esaslı unsurudur. Ölçme ve değerlendirme, eğitim sürecinin birçok bileşeni ile ilgili fikir veren bir basamaktır ve müfredat, değerlendirme kriterleri, ilkelerin koruması gibi hususlarla yakından ilişkilidir.
Bu makalenin konusunu Osmanlı Devleti’nde kadılar için yapılan imtihanlar teşkil etmektedir. Günümüzde Osmanlı dönemi eğitim sisteminin ve kazâ teşkilatının işleyişine dair pek çok eser ve makale bulunmakla birlikte, bu konuyu müstakil olarak ele alan çalışmalara ihtiyaç bulunmaktadır. Bu makalede, kadılık mesleğine giriş süreci ve tayin kriterleri ile alakalı olması açısından önem arz eden bu konu etraflı bir şekilde incelenmiş, kadı adaylarına uygulanan imtihanlar hakkında bilgi vermek amaçlanmıştır.
Çalışmanın birinci bölümünde Tanzimat’a kadar olan dönemde, ikinci bölümünde Tanzimat sonrasında kadılar için yapılan imtihanlar ele alınmıştır. Üçüncü bölümde 19. yüzyılda kadı okullarında en ağırlıklı ders olan Dürer dersi ile Filibeli Halil Fevzi Efendi tarafından Dürerü’l-hükkâm fî şerhi Gureri’l-ahkâm’dan hazırlanıp 1867’de risale olarak neşredilen imtihan sorularının tercümesi yapılmış, muhtevası tanıtılarak değerlendirmeye tabi tutulmuştur. Çalışmanın son kısmında ise bu imtihanın soruları ile cevaplarının tercümesi yer almaktadır.
