Abstract

Objectives
To explore the level of active aging and correlates among rural elderly in Xiangtan County, China.

Methods
A cross-sectional survey was conducted from July to November 2019. A total of 945 rural elderly from 3 towns in Xiangtan County, China, were investigated by using the positive aging evaluation questionnaire (PAEQ), the activity of daily living scale (ADL), and the depression in old-age scale (DIA-S).

Results
The average score in the PAEQ among the rural elderly of Xiangtan County was 72.81 (range = 21–105). A moderate negative correlation was found between the score in the PAEQ and those in the ADL (r = −0.361) and DIA-S (r = −0.495). Symptoms of depression (β: −0.321, P = 0.001), number of chronic diseases (β: −0.281, P = 0.001), subjective economic status (β: 0.239, P = 0.001), ADL (β: −0.196, P = 0.001), education (β: 0.126, P = 0.001), number of children (β: 0.097, P = 0.001), and marital status (β: −0.060, P = 0.001) were significantly associated with levels of active aging in rural elderly, whereas gender and age were not independently related to active aging.

Conclusions
The level of active aging is at a moderately high level in the Chinese elderly in rural areas in Xiangtan County. The focus group of active aging in rural areas should be elderly people suffering from chronic diseases, physical decline, poor education and economic conditions, childlessness, and those without partners.

Abstract

Objective
With the increasing use of a peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) in clinical application, the breaking of the PICC is increasing as well, which would turn into the emboli and drift to the heart and pulmonary artery, causing severe consequences. However, few cases have been reported on the rescue of patients with a broken PICC.

Patient concerns
A 33-year-old man, diagnosed with chronic hepatitis B-related decompensated cirrhosis and cryptococcal meningitis, was treated with amphotericin B combined with flucytosine and fluconazole by means of PICC catheterization. The patient was discharged with a catheter; when he returned for re-examination, a 50cm length of PICC broke and slipped into the vein after his sudden dysphoria. First aid was immediately administered, and then the intervention therapy to extricate the tube, including pulmonary artery angiography and intravascular removal of foreign matter, was performed based on the consensus of the in-hospital vein treatment group. At last, the broken PICC fragment was successfully taken out of the vessel. Re-examination after surgery showed that he recovered well.

Conclusions
Once the catheter is broken, the X-ray examination should be performed at the first instance and re-examined frequently. Moreover, the involvement of a multidisciplinary team should be formed to decide the appropriate method of treatment to ensure a successful rescue.
Germinoma occurring 9 years after surgical resection of a mature pineal teratoma: a case report
Authors: Meouchy Paul El , Bejjani Noha , Nader Maroun Abou , Farah Roula 
Published: January 2022

Background:
Mature teratomas are common tumors in the pediatric population. They can arise in the central nervous system and often require surgical resection. They are classified as non-germinomatous germ cell tumors and their recurrence are extremely rare.

Case Presentation:
We are reporting the case of a 6-year-old boy who was diagnosed with mature pineal teratoma after he presented with signs of acute hydrocephalus. Histopathology did not reveal any other germ cell tumor component. He underwent a complete resection of the mass, with no adjuvant chemotherapy. Nine years post-operatively, magnetic resonance imaging results showed recurrence of the pineal tumor as a germinoma. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy resulted in significant shrinkage of the mass and resolution of the clinical symptoms.

Conclusion:
This case illustrates the possibility of the late recurrence of a germinoma after the complete removal of a mature intracranial teratoma. It also raises the issue of whether mature teratomas should be treated with adjuvant therapy after surgical resection to prevent their recurrence as another germ cell tumor.

Abstract
In my paper, I show that there are two truths in Descartes’ Meditations on First Philosophy that do not require the divine guarantee, despite Descartes’ claim in the last sentence of the fourth paragraph in the third meditation that he cannot be certain of anything unless he knows that God exists as Descartes’ creator and that God is not a deceiver.
Outsourcing and the strategy of organizations in Mexico
Authors: González Luis Fernando Muñoz , Arriaga Ana María Paredes 
Published: January 2022

Abstract
Outsourcing has been a very commonly used strategy to increase productivity in a variety of organizations. In Mexico, it can be said that it has had a positive impact on employment rate. Nevertheless, there is a “dark side” in this strategy, since it has been used as a way to avoid direct hiring of employees and to evade fiscal and social security regulations. This document aims to analyze outsourcing from a regulatory and contractual approach, as well as its role as a way to increase the employment rate, and from a managerial perspective. As a result of this analysis, it was found that in our country outsourcing has been a successfully used strategy by many organizations of different sizes, but at the same time, the lack of an appropriate legislation has originated a series of unethical practices. In Mexico, in 2021 a new legal framework that tries to balance the relationship between firms and employees was approved. This paper ends with a reflection of the possible impacts of this new legislation.

Abstract
Temperature control becomes increasingly necessary with each day, be it in industrial, commercial or residential environments. In a similar way, technology has become a common tool in everyday life. Thus, the technologies need to accompany advances in the controls of processes in many fields, creating applications that can be used in mobile devices alongside these processes. Therefore, this paper proposes temperature monitoring of an environment, via Bluetooth wireless communication and with interface display on a mobile application, developed in MIT App Inventor. While implementing commands via hardware and software a procedure to lower room temperature was applied through a ventilation system. The data are collected through a DHT11 temperature sensor, and the wireless communication is through a HC-05 Bluetooth module, both connected to the development board Arduino. It was possible to condition the cooler to work accordingly with a preset temperature range by using its IDE (Integrated Development Environment). Thereby, this project is a low-cost and advantageous alternative to temperature control and monitoring supported by technological advancements.
