Published: August 2022

Introduction: Tonsillectomy is one of the most common worldwide surgical procedures performed by Otolaryngologists which is usually uncomplicated. The most common complication seen after tonsillectomy is hemorrhage. This can be primary or secondary. Primary hemorrhage occurs within twenty four hours after surgery and secondary hemorrhage occurs any time following the initial 24 hours. Although the exact mechanism behind post-tonsillectomy hemorrhage remains unclear. Risk factors can be helpful in pointing toward an etiology. Methods: We performed a retrospective review of 200 patients (above 3 years and of both gender), who were subjected for tonsillectomy with or without adenoidectomy at the ENT Department, Aswan University hospital, and then 50 of them presented with secondary post tonsillectomy hemorrhage (> 24 hours) post-operative, after hospital discharge, between February 2020 and February 2021. Results: Considering risk factors, the patient ages ranged from 4-40 years with a mean of 15.42 years. Most of patients 37 (74%) were male. O positive blood group were predominant in 26 (52%) of patients. Repeated tonsillitis was the most common indication 35 (70%) of patients. bipolar technique was done in most of patients 36 (72%). The majority of patients 31 (62%) were subjected for tonsillectomy without adenoidectomy.

Published: August 2022

Capparis Spinosa is considered among the most important commercial crops in the Caper family, Where the height of the Capparis spinosa tree ranges from 1 to2m and its roots reach 40cm the plant is ever green in a green blue color, and the branches creeping and semi-break easy to break, the leaves are thick circular or oval. Capparis Spinoza has been selected because of its medical advantages where it uses a painkiller, treatment of intestinal bacterial infection and uses its leaves as food spices. These effective compound were detected using GC-MS, which is considered as strong antioxidant, and when the plant was extracted with the GC-MS device, the peel appeared to be more effective than the seed,because they contained high effective compounds, where the peel included the highest percentage in dl- alpha- Tocopherol succinate,which reached about 29.384 is one of the strong antioxidants that inhibit free radicals and protect cells from oxidative stress and is considered the most active of the compounds tocopherol in relation to seeds, it included 28.901 E-11-Tetradecenoic acid and n-Hexadecanoic acid ,phytol ,the capparis spinosa plant is rich in phenolic compounds due to the presence of many flavonoid compounds in different parts and in high quantities.

Published: August 2022

Background: The incidence of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is inversely related to gestational age. Cardiac troponin T (cTnT) is a specific marker for myocardial ischemic injury. The aim of this work was to investigate if a hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus leads to elevated high- sensitivity troponin T (hsTnT) levels in serum. Methods: This prospective observational research included 60 preterm infants <34 weeks’ gestation, weighing <1500 g with PDA. Patients were classified into two groups according to the ECHO findings: Group A: preterm infants who had hs.PDA (PDA >1.5 mm and LA: Ao >1.2 and group B: preterm infants without hs.PDA. All cases were subjected to clinical examination, echocardiogram and hsTnT assay. Results: Serum hsTnT levels was significantly elevated in patients with hs PDA compared to patients without hs PDA. High sensitive T-troponin can significantly detect hsPDA with AUC of 0.986, P value <0.001. At cut off >100 pg/ml, it’s a significant detector with sensitivity of 93.33%, specificity of 90%, PPV of 90.3, NPV of 93.1 and diagnostic accuracy of 91.5%. PDA had a significant positive correlation with hsTnT (r=0.803, P<0.001). Conclusions: HsTnT can significantly detect hemodynamically significant PDA in preterm infants with high sensitivity and specificity.

Published: August 2022

The goal of the study was to see if gold nanoparticles (GNPs) and silica gold nanoparticles (Si-GNPs) could help cancer cells phagocytes. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-VIS) absorptions were used to characterize the nanomaterial's. In both in vitro and in vivo conditions, the GNPs and Si-GNPs enhanced macrophage phagocytosis capabilities, resulting in the annihilation of cancer cells. The effect of GNPs and Si-GNPs in Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and Interleukin-8 (IL-8) levels was investigated in Ehrlich tumor cells using Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) assay. The results shows the ability of GNPs and Si-GNPs to increase TNF-α and IL-8 in treated Ehrlich Ascites Carcinoma (EAC). It was found that the most effect was in Si-GNPs group. GNPs and Si-GNPs enhance phagocytic cells for increased granzyme and perforin-mediated cancer cell death on a regular basis. Overall, the findings showed that GNPs and Si-GNPs improved phagocytic cell activation, which might be employed as a promising technique for managing cancer cells by enhancing cell death via a Granzyme-perforin dependent mechanism.

Effect of Educational Technology on Students’ Foreign Language Anxiety: A Thematic Literature Review
Authors: Ma Mingyan , Noordin Nooreen , Razali Abu Bakar 
Published: August 2022

Foreign language anxiety (FLA), as a common affective filter, has impeded the language learning process. In order to reduce the FLA, researchers have explored several methods via enhancing language learning settings. Technology as a crucial tool in improving the learning environment has been considered on this topic as well. However, the results of these empirical studies are inconsistent. After reviewing 24 relevant experimental and quasi-experimental research articles from 2016 to 2021 and calculating the effect size for each article, it is evident that 46% of studies reported that technology-assisted instruction significantly decreased FLA, and 54% had no significant effect on FLA. Therefore, this paper aimed to examine the overall effect size on the topic and explore the moderators that caused these inconsistent results through examining five potential moderators (technology type, using methods for integrating technology into a foreign language classroom, exposure duration of technology in experimental groups, FLA type and target language) from the reviewed studies, which are based on the sources of FLA (Young, 1991; Yan & Horwitz, 2008). Two moderators (using methods for integrating technology into foreign language classrooms and target language) were found to get significant predictions on the effect of technology on students' FLA, p<0.05. These findings provide educators, researchers, and practitioners a new direction for future research on different methods of teaching the target language using suitable technology in the classroom.

De ‘alle omstandigheden van het geval’-toetsing bij artikel 7:671c BW en ernstig verwijtbaar handelen of nalaten van de werkgever
De Hoge Raad heeft in zijn beschikking van 21 januari 2022 bepaald dat zowel bij de beoordeling van een werknemersverzoek tot ontbinding van de arbeidsovereenkomst op grond van artikel 7:671c BW, alsmede bij de beoordeling of de ontbinding het gevolg is van ernstig verwijtbaar handelen of nalaten van de werkgever, alle omstandigheden van het geval, in onderling verband en samenhang, in aanmerking moeten worden genomen. De auteur onderwerpt deze beschikking van de Hoge Raad aan een nadere analyse. In het bijzonder wordt ingegaan op de wijze waarop artikel 7:671c BW in de lagere rechtspraak wordt toegepast en hoe deze toepassing zich verhoudt tot de norm van artikel 7:671c BW. Bovendien staat de bijdrage stil bij de vraag hoe de toetsing die volgens de Hoge Raad moet worden aangelegd bij de beoordeling van ernstig verwijtbaar handelen of nalaten door de werkgever zich verhoudt tot de beoordeling die moet worden aangelegd bij ernstig verwijtbaar handelen of nalaten van de werknemer. Tot slot gaat de bijdrage in op de mogelijkheid van het stapelen van verschillende verwijtbare gedragingen om tezamen tot het predicaat ernstige verwijtbaarheid te komen. De auteur betoogt dat dit eenvoudiger lijkt in de situatie waarin de werknemer zelf om ontbinding van zijn arbeidsovereenkomst verzoekt.
Fout is vals?

Het foutief invullen van het Bibob-formulier en de bestuurs- en strafrechtelijke invulling van valsheid in geschrifte
In deze bijdrage staat de vraag centraal of, en zo ja in welke gevallen, het foutief invullen van een Bibob-formulier het vermoeden van valsheid in geschrifte (art. 225 Sr) rechtvaardigt. Op basis van artikel 3 lid 6 Wet Bibob kan een beschikking worden geweigerd of ingetrokken als redelijkerwijs kan worden vermoed dat een strafbaar feit is gepleegd ter verkrijging of behoud van die beschikking. Voor de inkleuring van dat bestuursrechtelijke vermoeden lijkt opzet of oogmerk geen rol te spelen. Dat werpt de vraag op: is fout ook per definitie vals? En vooral: wanneer is fout vals?

BackgroundOwing to intermittent/acute exposure to hypobaric hypoxia, highland miners may often suffer, the physiological characteristics between highland and lowland miners, however, are rarely reported. The objective of this study was to compare the physiological characteristics of coal miners working at disparate altitudes.MethodsTwenty-three male coal mining workers acclimating to high altitude for 30 ± 6 days in Tibet (highland group; approx. 4500 m above sea level; 628.39 millibar), and 22 male coal mining workers in Hebei (lowland group; less than 100 m above sea level; 1021.82 millibar) were recruited. Tests were conducted to compare ventilatory parameters, circulation parameters, resting metabolic rate (RMR), and heart rate variability (HRV) indices between the two groups in resting state.ResultsVentilation volume per minute (VE) of the highland group was markedly raised compared to that of the lowland group (11.70 ± 1.57 vs. 8.94 ± 1.97 L/min,p = 0.000). In the meanwhile, O2 intake per heart beat (VO2/HR) was strikingly decreased (3.54 ± 0.54 vs. 4.36 ± 0.69 ml/beat,p = 0.000). Resting metabolic rate relevant to body surface area (RMR/BSA) was found no significant difference between the two groups. Evident reduction in standard deviation of NN intervals (SDNN) and remarkable increase in ratio of low- and high- frequency bands (LF/HF) were manifest in highland miners compared to that of lowland ones (110.82 ± 33.34 vs. 141.44 ± 40.38,p = 0.008 and 858.86 ± 699.24 vs. 371.33 ± 171.46,p = 0.003; respectively).ConclusionsThese results implicate that long-term intermittent exposure to high altitude can lead miners to an intensified respiration, a compromised circulation and a profound sympathetic-parasympathetic imbalance, whereas the RMR in highland miners does not distinctly decline.
