Ultrasonic monitoring of the VVER-1000 FA form change
Authors: Voronina Aleksandra V. , Pavlov Sergey V. , Amosov Sergey V. 
Published: June 2022

A procedure has been developed to determine the geometrical parameters of fuel assemblies (FA) by an ultrasonic pulse-echo technique used for all types of light-water reactor FAs. The measurement of geometrical parameters is achieved through the pairwise installation of ultrasonic transducers opposite the FA spacer grid faces at a distance of not more than a half of the transducer acoustic field near-region length such that the acoustic axes of the pairwise transducers are parallel to each other. The advantages of the presented technique is that it enables monitoring of any FA modifications, including the VVER reactor assemblies with a different number of spacer grids.
The paper presents a mathematical model of the acoustic path developed in a geometrical acoustics approximation and its verification results. The model was used for computational and experimental studies of the ultrasonic test technique, and engineering formulas have been developed to calculate the errors of the transducer-measured distance to the FA surface. A code has been developed to simulate the FA form change monitoring and can be used to design new monitoring systems.
The developed technique to determine the VVER-1000 FA geometrical parameters was introduced at units 1 and 2 of the Temelin NPP, the Czech Republic, for the TVSA-T FA form change monitoring. The successful use of the proposed technique makes it possible to recommend it for use in inspection benches at other NPPs.

Authors: Rego-Lorca Daniela , Burgos-Blasco Barbara , Ginés-Gallego Cristina , Carrasco-López-Brea Mario , de Santos-Moreno María Teresa , Santos-Bueso Enrique 
Published: June 2022

Purpose:
To evaluate retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness in children with migraine, with and without aura, compared to healthy controls using optical coherence tomography (OCT).

Methods:
In this cross-sectional case–control study, patients with a diagnosis of migraine with aura (MwA) or without aura (MwoA) were considered and healthy children were included as controls. Age, sex, duration of migraine, number of episodes per month, duration of episodes, and use of prophylactic treatment with magnesium were recorded. All patients underwent complete ophthalmologic, neurologic, and pediatric examination. Optic nerve OCT images were obtained using Heidelberg Spectralis OCT (Heidelberg Engineering) and mean global RNFL thickness and the average thickness for each sector were noted.

Results:

Thirty-seven children were included: 17 with migraine (9 MwoA and 8 MwA) and 20 controls, the mean age being 13.8 ± 2.9 (range: 8 to 16) and 13.4 ± 2.5 (range: 7 to 16) years, respectively. No significant differences in RNFL thickness were found when comparing all patients who had migraine with healthy controls. However, children with MwA showed statistically significant reductions in RNFL thickness in the temporal (mean difference: 7.83; 95% CI: 0.52 to 15.14,
P
= .027) and inferior-temporal (mean difference: 16.06; 95% CI: 1.95 to 30.16,
P
= .027) sectors compared to patients with MwoA. None of the other sectors showed statistically significant differences between groups (all
P
> .05). In the migraine group, negative correlations were detected between the number of episodes per month and RNFL thickness in the nasal-superior quadrant (
r
= −.420;
P
= .021).

Conclusions:
Children with MwA may present a decrease in RNFL thickness, which is associated with the number of episodes per month.

The application of mobile computed tomography for the localization of small lung lesions
Authors: Liu Chia , Chien Hung-Che , Hsu Po-Kuei , Hsu Han-Shui 
Published: June 2022

Background:
Localization of a small pulmonary nodule is essential for proper and prompt management. Hence, studies explored different modalities for localizing pulmonary nodules. These modalities include preoperative computed tomography (CT)-guided localization, intraoperative CT- guided localization in hybrid operating rooms (ORs), and intraoperative electromagnetic navigation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the preliminary results of the mobile CT scanner in localizing small pulmonary nodules in the ORs.

Materials and Methods:
A total of nine patients with small single pulmonary lesions were managed with video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) lung resection after mobile CT-guided localization at the Taipei Veterans General Hospital in 2020. The characteristics of patients and their pulmonary lesions and the perioperative parameters for localization and resection were evaluated.

Results:
All lesions were successfully located and removed via uniportal VATS without the occurrence of major complications. The mean size of nodules was 8.33 mm. The mean distance of the nodules to the pleura was 14.9 mm. These measurements were obtained via CT images. The mean time of preparation, localization, and resection time were 70.33 min, 22.56 min, and 51.56 min, respectively.

Conclusion:
Localization of small pulmonary nodules using a mobile CT scanner in the OR is feasible, safe and flexible.
Mouth opening range for Jordanian population and its relation to gender, age, height, and weight
Authors: Hawwa Mirvet Mohammed 
Published: June 2022

Aim:
Maximum mouth opening (MMO) is an important parameter in the assessment of several clinical situations, and its measured value is documented to have gender, age, and anthropometric variation.

Background:
This study measures the average value of MMO in a sample of the Jordanian population. MMO might be different for different regions of the world and is important for all dental disciplines. We attempt to find correlations between MMO and body characteristics such as gender, age, body weight, and height.

Materials and Methods:
A total of 565 Jordanian patients (191 males and 374 females; aged 3–70 years) were randomly selected for this cross-sectional study. Mouth opening was measured using a calibrated ruler between the incisal edges of the upper and lower central incisors (interincisal length), and weight and height were measured using a medical scale. In addition, age and gender were recorded. Patients were informed of the study and agreed to participate. Statistical differences of MMO between male and female patients in each age group were assessed using the t-test, the correlation between the MMO and body weight and height was assessed using a Pearson correlation coefficient and simple linear regression using the SPSS program.

Results and Conclusions: The mean MMO across the sample was 45 ± 4.78 mm with a range of 36–61 mm. The mean MMO in males was 45.7 ± 5.2 mm, varied from females, which was 44.65 ± 4.4 mm in all age groups with the level of significance of (P = 0.013). No significant relation was found between age and MMO with a P of (>0.05), but a significant correlation was found between MMO and body weight and height with a P of (<0.01).

Pancreatic gastrointestinal stromal tumour with liver metastasis five years after Whipple’s procedure: a rare case with management challenges
Authors: Saleema Begum  , Khan Muhammad Rizwan 
Published: June 2022

Pancreatic gastrointestinal tumour is an unusual primary tumour of the pancreas. A 31-year-old male came to the clinic with jaundice and weight loss. Cross-sectional imaging showed a mass in the pancreatic uncinate process. Image-guided biopsy revealed gastrointestinal stromal tumour, so pancreaticoduodenectomy was performed, followed by adjuvant Imatinib. The patient had oligo-metastasis in the liver five years post-surgery and underwent liver resection. This is an unusual case where a pancreatic GIST presented with metastasis while on adjuvant treatment. Hepatectomy and multimodal therapy increases the survival if the disease is confined to the liver.
Keywords: Pancreas, Gastrointestinal stromal tumour, Whipple’s procedure.

CONECTORES CORRELATIVOS EM CONTEXTOS DE ORALIDADE: PRODUTIVIDADE FUNCIONAL VIA GRAMATICALIZAÇÃO
Authors: Moreira Raissa , Silva Camilo 
Published: June 2022

Este artigo recorta dados de uma pesquisa mais ampla que investiga conectores correlativos, destacando evidências de que a correlação se trata de um processo sintático e discursivo distinto da dicotomia tradicional: coordenação/subordinação. Os dados em análise são oriundos da modalidade de língua falada, coletados no corpus D&G da cidade de Natal, Rio Grande do Norte. Cotejamos o tratamento que representantes da gramática tradicional destinam ao tema com análises mais recentes, desenvolvidas por pesquisadores filiados a abordagens da linguística funcionalista. Para explicar, a partir dessa ótica, a constituição dos processos de formação dos pares correlativos, aplicamos os princípios de gramaticalização de Hopper (1991). Por conclusão, constatamos a produtividade de novos pares ou a transformação de pares já consolidados pelos usos e defendemos que a correlação é um fenômeno em emergência.
TECENDO DIÁLOGOS ENTRE FUNCIONALISMO E DIALOGISMO PARA ANÁLISE DE FENÔMENOS EM PROCESSO DE VARIAÇÃO/MUDANÇA
Authors: Langa Lacerda Marcela 
Published: June 2022

Este texto tem o objetivo de argumentar que o agenciamento de uma forma/função no uso efetivo da língua ocorre no âmbito dos gêneros do discurso. De cunho interpretativista, esta pesquisa é bibliográfica, e recupera de Autor (2017) um diálogo entre os campos funcionalista, considerando a vertente da Costa Oeste (GIVÓN, 2001; TRAUGOTT, 2001; HOPPER; TRAUGOTT; 2003, dentre outros) e dialógico (BAKHTIN, 2014 [1924]; BAKHTIN [VOLOCHÍNOV], 2014 [1929]; MEDVIÉDV, 2012 [1928], dentre outros), para tratamento de fenômenos em variação/mudança, tomando o caso da expressão do futuro do presente no português do Brasil como exemplar. Os resultados da investigação apontam para a relevância de se considerar: (i) que a expressão do futuro do presente é uma representação construída no/pelo discurso; (ii) que relações cronotópicas e avaliativas são constitutivas de todos os usos linguísticos; (iii) que recursos linguísticos tais como os variáveis, por um lado, e os multifuncionais, por outro lado, sendo agenciados para cumprir uma função teleológica, não são sempre os mesmos, sendo, por isso, relevantes para o estudo da variação estilística; (iii) que o estilo é, na verdade, dos gêneros do discurso. Daí a argumentação de que é no âmbito dos gêneros que a explicação da relação forma/função deve ser buscada.
