Published: June 2022

Đau sau phẫu thuật lớn vùng hàm mặt gây ảnh hưởng lớn tới sinh hoạt và quá trình hồi phục của người bệnh. Chúng tôi đã thực hiện nghiên cứu RCT trên 60 bệnh nhân có phẫu thuật lớn vùng hàm mặt được chia hai nhóm: nhóm 1 sử dụng TCI sufentanil kết hợp midazolam và nhóm 2 sử dụng TCI sufentanil đơn thuần để giảm đau hậu phẫu. Kết quả: đánh giá hiệu quả mức độ an thần theo OAA/S tại T0 (bắt đầu TCI): hai nhóm tương đồng nhau; từ T1 (1h) tới T7 (24h) nhóm 2 thấp hơn nhóm 1 (p < 0,05). Từ T0 tới T7, để đạt được mức độ giảm đau theo VAS tương đồng, nhóm 1 đã có số lần giải cứu đau (1,86 ± 0,72 lần) và tổng lượng thuốc sử dụng (67, 91 ± 9,87mcg) thấp hơn nhóm 2 (với p < 0,01) có số liệu tương ứng là 5,63 ± 1,45 lần và 75,75 ± 14,06mcg. Kết luận: sử dụng TCI sufentanil kết hợp midazolam sau phẫu thuật lớn vùng hàm mặt cho hiệu quả an thần, giảm đau tốt hơn và giảm tiêu thụ thuốc hơn so với TCI sufentanil đơn thuần.

Pictures for the Taking: Margaret Bourke-White’s Soviet Photographs in Magazines
Authors: Johnson Josie R. 
Published: June 2022

ABSTRACT
Between 1930 and 1932, the American photographer Margaret Bourke-White made three separate trips to the Soviet Union, where she created a suite of images that would be published and exhibited extensively over the following decade. This article considers the spread of these photographs in magazines. A close analysis of Bourke-White’s photographs in each issue reveals that editors tended to favor images with marked aesthetic interest over those with overt political meanings. This preference explains how her photographs so fluidly traversed disparate ideological and aesthetic contexts where they were used to support a wide variety of interpretations regarding the Soviet state.

Narrating the Uncanny: The Music of Les Revenants
Authors: Venn Edward , McAuley Anna 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
This article explores the narrative function of music in the French TV drama Les Revenants and its connection to the literary tradition of the fantastic. It argues that the music enacts the narrative device of hesitation to provide generic, timbral, tonal, semantic, and temporal ambiguity and, in doing so, gives voice to the show's characteristic fantastical presentation of the Freudian uncanny.
Honorable Survivors: A Feminist Reply to Statman
Authors: Hereth Blake 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
Helen Frowe depicts the following fictional case: Fran is being raped by Eric and can't stop him with violent resistance. Nevertheless, she resists and breaks Eric's wrist. The infliction of defensive harm on Eric is intuitively permissible, yet it runs counter to the dominant view that defensive harms must stand a reasonable chance of success. Call this the Success Condition (S). To solve this problem, Daniel Statman contends that even if Victim's defensive harms fail to prevent her rape, they do prevent the destruction of another good, her honor, and thus S is satisfied. Recently, Joseph Bowen has critiqued Statman's proposal by showing that honor-based justifications for defensive harming are too permissive. In this paper, I contend that Statman's proposal is too restrictive. First, I review Statman's accounts of honor, dishonor, and non-honor. Second, I argue that Statman's account requires Fran's honor to be lost or damaged if she doesn't resist—a highly offensive conclusion about rape victims. Third, I explain why the best alternative to this (i.e., allowing Fran's honor to be maintained either way) satisfies S but not the necessity condition. I conclude that we ought to reject Statman's solution.

LINGUISTÍSCA INDÍGENA BRASILEIRA E SUAS NUANCES

Published: June 2022

O contato entre portugueses e índios brasileiros começou no início do século XVI. Lembremos que o Brasil foi descoberto pelos portugueses em 1500 e que o povoamento dos colonos portugueses começou em 1530. Naquela época, grande parte da costa brasileira era ocupada pelos índios Tupinambás, cuja cultura e língua apresentavam apenas pequenas variações, apesar da grande extensão de seu território. Provavelmente, esta extensão sem diferenciação se deve a um movimento expansionista muito recente, ainda em curso e que pode ser observado no início do século XVI pelos portugueses. O estudo da possível influência fonológica e gramatical da linguística no português brasileiro deve ser feito não apenas com base no bom conhecimento da língua ou línguas indígenas envolvidas, mas também levando em consideração os dialetos particulares do português brasileiro, onde o investigado fato realmente ocorre. Até o momento, carecemos de estudos que conjuguem o conhecimento das línguas indígenas e dos dialetos do português brasileiro. Para tanto, o objetivo deste artigo é demonstrar a riqueza da culturalização indígena e suas diversas ramificações. Sabendo que desde a situações geopolíticas, distribuição e a diminuição da diversidade indígena (NASCIMENTO, 2012), são características que necessitam atenção por parte de todos para que a forma do expressar, o léxico e as raízes continuem fazendo parte do solo onde eles são os legítimos proprietários.

Published: June 2022

Aims: To determine the nutritional status and the dietary intake of inpatient children with lower respiratory infections.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in 106 children aged under 5 years admitted to the Pediatric Department of the National Lung Hospital in Hanoi, Vietnam, from August to December 2018. Body weight, height/length were measured; nutritional status was evaluated by using World Health Organization criteria and Subjective Global Assessment (SGA). Dietary intake was daily recorded during the first week of hospitalization.
Results: The prevalence of malnutrition was 30.1%, 25.7%, and 17.8% respectively for underweight, stunting and wasting. According to the SGA, 20% of the patients were at risk for malnutrition. From the first day to seventh day of hospitalization, the rate of chidlren given 100% of requirement had a fluctuating upward trend from 30% to 40% in energy intake and from 66% to 84% in protein intake; the rates of energy intake under 80% of requirement were from 31% to 54% in patients, while the rates of protein intake over 1.5-fold requirement were from 37% to 50% in patients.
Conclusions: The study indicated the alarmingly high prevalence of malnutrition in children aged under 5 years and the contrast between under energy intake and over protein intake in the hospitalized children.
COMPARISON OF LOW-DOSE AND MEDIUM-DOSE ORAL ISOTRETINOIN FOR TREATMENT OF ROSACEA
Authors: Lan Nguyen Thi Linh , Hien Do Thi Thu 
Published: June 2022

Objectives: To compare the results of treatment of papulopustular rosacea by low-dose oral isotretinoin (0.15-0.25 mg/kg/day) and medium-dose (0.4-0.5 mg/kg/day).
Subjects and methods: Randomized controlled clinical trial: 54 patients with papulopustular rosacea were randomly assigned to 2 groups: group 1 treated by low-dose oral isotretinoin and group 2 treated by medium-dose for 8 weeks.
Results: After 8 weeks of treatment, the number of papules and pustules and erythema decreased clearly in both groups. The improvement of erythema by CEA score was similar in all patients treated by medium and low doses of isotretinoin (52.7% vs 45.4, p>0.05). The reduction of number of papules and pustules in patients with mild and moderate IGA score was not diferent between two groups treated by medium and low-dose oral isotretinoin. However, the reduction of number of papules and pustules in group with severe IGA score was significantly more rapidly when treated by medium-dose than low-dose oral isotretinoin (76.8 % vs 84.7%; p<0.05). Adverse events were observed only on the skin including dryness and irritation which were more frequent and severe in group treated by medium-doses compared to group treated by lose-dose oral isotretinoin.
Conclusion: Isotretinoin is safe and effective in the treatment of papulopustular rosacea. The improvement of erythema, papules and pustules was similar in all patients treated by medium and low-dose of oral isotretinoin. However, the reduction of number of papules and pustules in severe IGA group was significantly more rapidly when treated by medium-dose than low-dose of oral isotretinoin at week 8th.

Impact of sarcopenia on intertrochanteric femoral fracture in the elderly
Authors: Jiang Shunli , Ding Yu , Kang Lixing 
Published: June 2022

Objective
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of skeletal sarcopenia on the prognosis of intertrochanteric fracture in the elderly.

Methods
We collected information on 144 patients with femoral intertrochanteric fracture (FIF). The influence of sarcopenia on the chance of death was determined using binary Probit regression analysis. For additional analysis, the Chow test was utilized to select the best distinguishing node in the instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) score. We looked for characteristics that were linked to a higher probability of death and a poor IADL outcome within 1 year. The data collected above were analyzed using logistic regression analysis. The internal calibration degree and model validity were assessed by GiViTI calibration.

Results
Sarcopenia, EuroQol-5D 1 month score, age, gender, and hypertension were identified as risk factors for death in older patients with FIF within a year by logistic regression analysis. Sarcopenia, psychotropics, BMI, and length of hospital stay were all found to be risk factors for poor IADL outcomes (P < 0.1). The calibration curves indicated that the anticipated and actual probabilities of these two models were very close. The study’s reliability coefficient was 0.671, showing a satisfactory level of reliability.

Conclusion
In elderly patients with FIF, sarcopenia, EuroQol-5D score, age, gender, and hypertension were risk factors for death; sarcopenia, hospital stay length, BMI were risk factors for poor quality of life.
Using Kurtosis for Selecting One-Sample T-Test or Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test
Authors: Garren Steven T. , Davenport Grace H. 
Published: June 2022

Aims / Objectives: To introduce a statistical test, which is a mixture of the one-sample t-test and Wilcoxon signed-rank test and depends on the sample kurtosis, using data from a symmetric univariate distribution with finite variance.
Study Approach: Computer simulation of coverage probabilities and of power calculations from either the one-sample t-test or the Wilcoxon signed-rank test, based on kurtosis, using the statistical software R.
Methodology: Data are generated with differing sample sizes from the Normal, Uniform, student-t with small degrees of freedom, and Laplace distributions. Coverage probabilities and power calculations are compared using the one-sample t-test, the Wilcoxon signed-rank test, and three proposed mixture tests which select the one-sample t-test or the Wilcoxon signed-rank test based on the sample kurtosis being significantly low or significantly high or either. Nonstandard values of t, the probability of a Type I error, are selected to account for the discrete nature of the Wilcoxon signed-rank test, allowing fair comparisons among the Wilcoxon signed-rank test, the t-test, and the three mixture tests.
Results: The false positive rate and power calculations are simulated for these nine distributions for both two-sided and one-sided tests, allowing comparisons among these five testing procedures.
Conclusion: When a small dataset is sampled from a symmetric distribution, then in comparison to the t-test, the Wilcoxon signed-rank test is equal in preference for the Normal distribution and is in fact more preferable for the non-Normal distributions tested herein. For small sample sizes, the mixture test based on high kurtosis is preferred over the t-test, but otherwise the t-test is preferred over all three mixture tests.

A Comparison of Postoperative Healing between Two Different Flaps for 3rd Molar Surgery in Controlled Diabetic Patients
Authors: Jana Tamoghna , Balakrishnan R. , Ebenezer Vijay 
Published: June 2022

Background: A flap is a unit of tissue that is transferred from donor site to recipient site while maintaining its own blood supply. Flaps are of various shapes and forms. They can be simple advancements of skin and range up to composites of many different types of tissue. Diabetes Mellitus is a metabolic disease where there is significant elevation of blood glucose level from the normal range for prolonged periods of time. The common signs and symptoms are, frequent urination, increased thirst, increased appetite, lethargy, infections, delayed healing of wounds. The complications of surgical procedures on diabetic patients are: delayed healing, wound dehiscence and decreased immunity, thus increased incidence of infection in the surgical site. Complications of intra-oral surgical procedures include delayed healing, wound dehiscence, bone loss, periodontal derangement of teeth, infection, xerostomia causing more caries, failure of flap due to decreased vascularity.
Aims and Objectives: The study aimed to answer whether Envelope Flap is better than Triangular Flap or vice versa for a mandibular 3rd molar surgery. To examine the complications of choosing a specific flap design in a minor oral surgery in patients with higher susceptibility to infection due to systemic condition, which is controlled Diabetes Mellitus.
Materials and Methods: This study was conducted on 20 patients, who were taken from the out-patient of Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Sree Balaji Dental College and Hospital, Chennai. On one side which was picked randomly for all patients, the Triangular flap was used. On the other side, the Envelope flap was used.
Conclusion: The statistical analysis P value > 0.05, which shows that the difference in post operative healing between the two flaps discussed is statistically insignificant. Thus, statistically both flaps are a viable option and both show similar results, although clinically envelope flap shows better overall results.
Mechanical Characterization of Stacked Single‐Crystal of Polyethylene and Monolayer MoSe2
Authors: Zhou Dong , Feng Gang , Khosla Henna , Retterer Scott T. , Li Bo 
Published: June 2022

AbstractPolymer single crystal (SC) is a key building block of semicrystalline polymers. However, direct experimental measurement of freestanding mono‐lamella polymer SC has not been demonstrated. This is, in large part, due to the difficulties associated with manipulating freestanding individual mono‐lamella SC because of its extremely low rigidity and low robustness. Here, we demonstrate a new strategy to successfully suspend and test a polymer SC by using a 2D material as backing. In particular, mono‐lamella polyethylene (PE) SC is stacked on monolayer MoSe2, and the hybrid stacks can be suspended over microholes. Nanoindentation is used to probe the suspended PE‐SC/MoSe2 stacks and MoSe2 monolayers. The results suggest the first experimentally‐measured in‐plane moduli of PE‐SC and 2D MoSe2 as 32 ± 3 and 237 ± 15 GPa, respectively. Such a stacked unit represents an ultrathin structure of polymer‐ceramic laminate and the idea can be applied to other laminated composite systems. Therefore, this research will pave the way to accurately measure the mechanical properties of polymer SCs and their composites, as well as provide a key insight on designing composite structures.
