Physical therapy Treatment Of a Non-Surgical Bimalleolar Ankle Fracture: A Retrospective Case Report

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Background/Purpose: Ankle fractures are becoming more frequent in the aging adult patient population. Depending on the severity of the fracture, surgical fixation may be required; diagnostic imaging can aid the decision process for invasive or conservative treatments of ankle fractures. There is a lack of standardized physical therapy protocols to follow for non-surgical bimalleolar fractures and therefore the purpose of this retrospective case report is to describe the examination, interventions, and outcomes of physical therapy treatment. Case Description: The patient was a 49-year-old male who experienced a left bimalleolar ankle fracture that followed a crush injury. The patient did not require surgical repair due to the severity determined by the diagnostic imaging performed in the emergency department. The patient was immobilized in a cast for six weeks, followed by three weeks in a CAM boot. The patient began physical therapy intervention 39 days after the injury. The following interventions were utilized: manual therapy techniques, dry needling, cupping, therapeutic exercise and activity, and neuromuscular re-education. Outcomes: The lower extremity functional scale (LEFS) was used to assess the patient’s level of function. The patient’s score was 33 at the time of the initial physical therapy evaluation and improved to 80 by discharge from physical therapy. The patient’s pain in the left ankle was abolished by the 8th visit. The left ankle presented with decreased range of motion and strength, compared to the unimpaired side, at the first physical therapy visit and made quick improvements leading to an early discharge. The patient also demonstrated improved functional movements with no compensations at the end of the patient’s plan of care. Discussion: Improvements were seen across all measurements which supports the use of conservative treatment approach and the use of exercises that focused on strength, balance, and proprioception to assist in returning patients to their prior level of function. The patient did go against the physical therapist’s recommendations for the timeframe of returning to previous high-impact activities. This resulted in increased pain following the activity. Additional studies should be performed to assess the effect of patient’s compliance to physical therapists’ recommendation following a bi-malleolar fracture.

The aim of this work is to create an artificial environment LED based for plants where the goal is to control LED lighting and monitor plant growth. This will contribute on issue like food production. This work involves the use of a web development microcontroller kit, which will help to make online or IoT (Internet of Things) project and design easy. The microcontroller will come with an integrated Wi-Fi to collect and control variable parameter and also programming language to develop graphical user interface (GUI). It is expected that the plant growth environment can be monitored and controlled or set through cloud via Wi-Fi on the board. Multicolour light emitting diode (LED) lamps are used. This system will improve the performance of available plant growth area where it will become more flexible in term of providing artificial environment with a better supervision.
LncRNA TP73-AS1 promoted the progression of lung adenocarcinoma via PI3K/AKT pathway

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

Abstract Lung adenocarcinoma (LAD) is one of the most common malignancies that threats human health worldwide. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been reported to play significant roles in tumorigenesis and might be novel biomarkers and targets for diagnosis and treatment of cancers. TP73-AS1 is a newly discovered lncRNA involved in the tumorigenesis and development of several cancers. However, its role in LAD has not been investigated yet. In the present study, we first found that TP73-AS1 expression was markedly increased in LAD tissues and cell lines and its overexpression was strongly associated with poor clinical outcomes. Then the loss/gain-of-function assays elucidated that TP73-AS1 contributed to cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in vitro, and the in vivo experiments illustrated that its knockdown inhibited tumor growth and metastasis. What was more, we discovered that phosphoinositide 3-kinase and AKT (PI3K/AKT) pathway was activated both in LAD tissues and cell lines but inactivated under TP73-AS1 silence. Moreover, the activation of this pathway could rescue the inhibitory effects of TP73-AS1 suppression on LAD cellular processes partially. These data suggested that TP73-AS1 served as an oncogene in LAD partially through activating PI3K/AKT pathway and it could be a potential target for diagnosis and treatment of LAD.
Analisis Pengaruh Ketinggian Lintasan Terhadap Gaya Gesek dan Kecepatan Benda Pada Bidang Miring Menggunakan PhET Simulation

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

Physics is an empirical science, meaning that physics is based on observation and experimentation. One of the fundamental concepts in physics that is the foundation for many calculations is the law of mechanical energy conservation, especially on inclined planes. This study aims to analyze the effect of track height on the friction force and velocity of objects when crossing an inclined plane. This research uses a virtual PhET Simulation laboratory with a virtual experimental research design. This research uses a quantitative approach, the data analysis technique uses statistical methods to determine the effect of track height on the friction and speed of objects. The result of this study is that the height of the track affects the value of the friction force, with increasing track height, the value of the friction force will decrease, this is due to the normal force acting on the inclined plane. In addition, with increasing track height on an inclined plane, the value of mechanical energy will increase. This is because the higher the trajectory, the greater the gravitational potential energy possessed by the object. Keywords: Altitude, Inclined plane, Mechanics, Speed.
Lausannevirus Encodes a Functional Dihydrofolate Reductase Susceptible to Proguanil

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

ABSTRACT Lausannevirus belongs to the family Marseilleviridae within the group of nucleocytoplasmic large DNA viruses (NCLDVs). These giant viruses exhibit unique features, including a large genome, ranging from 100 kb to 2.5 Mb and including from 150 to more than 2,500 genes, as well as the presence of genes coding for proteins involved in transcription and translation. The large majority of Lausannevirus open reading frames have unknown functions. Interestingly, a bifunctional dihydrofolate reductase-thymidylate synthase (DHFR-TS) is encoded in the Lausannevirus genome. The enzyme plays central roles in DNA precursor biosynthesis. DHFR is the pharmacological target of antifolates, such as trimethoprim, pyrimethamine, and proguanil. First, the functionality of Lausannevirus DHFR-TS was demonstrated by the successful complementation of a DHFR-deficient Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain with a plasmid expressing the heterologous gene. Additionally, using this heterologous expression system, we demonstrated the in vitro susceptibility of Lausannevirus DHFR-TS to proguanil and its resistance to pyrimethamine and trimethoprim. Proguanil may provide a unique and useful treatment if Lausannevirus proves to be a human pathogen. To our knowledge, this is the first time that a DHFR-TS has been described and characterized in an NCLDV.

ROLE OF MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING IN EVALUATING TYPICAL AND ATYPICAL MENINGIOMAS .

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background: Meningioma is the most common primary non-glial intracranial neoplasm .It occurs in adults between the ages of 40-70 years of age and tend to occur more often in women, the reported average age for females is 42 and that for males is 52 .Meningiomas are benign but locally aggressive tumor, they are found in the following anatomic sites in descending order of frequency: parasagittal region, falx, cerebellar convexity, olfactory groove, tuberculum sellae, sphenoid ridge, petrous face (CPA), tertorium, lateral ventricle, clivus as well as other sites .Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the role of MRI in evaluating typical and atypical meningiomas and predicting its pathological behavior.Methods: This study was carried out at Radio diagnosis Department, Zagazig University Hospitals, The present study was carried on 24 patients of typical and atypical meningiomas.Results : We studied 24 cases, 15 of them were typical and only 9 cases were atypical /malignant.Using routine MRI sequences, the meningiomas were diagnosed and DW images were performed using factor of b-0 and b-1000.Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values were measured in the lesion and in the normal white matter.Atypical and malignant types tend to have atypical features by routine MRI such as: heterogeneous signal intensity, heterogeneous pattern of enhancement, irregular tumor margins, marked amount of peri-focal edema, bone or parenchymal invasion.Three or more of above mentioned atypical features could not be seen in the typical meningiomas being unique for atypical and malignant group.Diffusion weighted imaging which is a part of normal brain imaging protocol has a great role in differentiating typical from atypical meningiomas.In this study, typical meningiomas tended to have a larger ADC values & NADC ratios than atypical and malignant ones.Only one case of pathologically proven rhabdoid malignant meningioma (Grade III) has high ADC value & NADC ratio (features of typical type). Conclusion:Our results indicate that The distinction between benign and atypical / malignant meningiomas is neither easily nor reliably accomplished to date when assessing the imaging features of meningiomas on routine MR images.DWI is helpful in distinguishing benign from malignant and atypical meningiomas.Mean ADC values of atypical/malignant meningiomas were significantly lower compared with benign meningiomas.Mean NADC ratios in the atypical/malignant group were also significantly lower than the benign group.
Uncertainty analysis of diffuse-gray radiation enclosure problems

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

Uncertainty analysis methods, which are adapted from experimental techniques, are applied to diffuse-gray radiation enclosure problems. The propagation of uncertainties in view factors, emissivities, surface areas, and boundary conditions into the computed results is developed along with the required sensitivity analysis. Special considerations of view factor reciprocity and closure are discussed, and it is shown that strict enforcement of these constraints greatly reduces the sensitivity of the results to errors in view factors and surface areas. Illustrative examples are given. The uncertainty analysis gives strong insights into the practical fidelity of diffuse-gray enclosure computations. f, I i M N Nomenclature area of surface k vector of coefficients in equation (3) diagonal matrix of areas diagonal matrix with zeros for elements 1 to M diagonal matrix with ek for elements k = 1 to matrix of view factors matrix defined with equation (30) transpose of F element i j of F identity matrix vector of ones number of surfaces with specified heat flux total number of surfaces irradiation incident on surface k net heat flux on surface k radiosity leaving surface k vector of radiosities and ek for elements k = M + l to N M and zeros for elements M t1 to N ' Professor, member AIAA, * Assistant Professor, member AIAA Professor, Associate Fellow AIAA, Professor and Head, Copyiiglll 1993 by the American lilnliiule Of AcronauliCS and Astronaurics. 1°C.

Lumbar Spinal Mechanics in Pure Bending: Influence of Gender, Spinal Level, and Degeneration Grade

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Gender differences have been identified in normal and traumatic motions of the spine. In the cervical region, spinal motions in females were significantly greater than in males during identical dynamic acceleration pulses [1]. Static cervical range of motion was also shown to be greater in female volunteers [2]. In the thoracic region, gender differences were identified in compressive and tensile elastic moduli [3]. Although male volunteers had slightly greater lumbar spine mobility, the difference was not statistically significant [4]. Another study reported that female lumbar specimens were somewhat more flexible than male specimens [5]. Lumbar spinal motions are clinically important in the diagnosis of abnormalities and instability. Increased motions occur secondary to instability and may indicate a need for spinal stabilization. However, although previous studies have provided baseline data for lumbar motions [6], possible variations in spinal motions between males and females may lead to inaccurate diagnosis. Therefore, the purpose of this investigation was to define lumbar spinal motions on a level-by-level basis to determine statistically significant differences between males and females and at varying levels of degeneration.
Embodied, caring and disciplinary: A Foucauldian reading of ‘process time’ as constitutive of the biopolitical institution of the family

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

‘Process time’ describes the recursive/fluid, social and embodied temporality that characterises much ‘women's work’. Though this concept has proven highly useful to feminist analyses of caring and other feminised labour, there has arguably been a tendency for authors in this area to naturalise and valorise this temporality – particularly in relation to the abstract, economic and disciplinary time of the clock. I argue that this naturalisation or valorisation of process time flattens our understanding of feminised labour, and that a feminist social theory of time must recognise the potentially disciplinary forms process time can take. As such, this paper contributes to feminist analyses of time, gender and labour by arguing that the embodied, caring and processual temporality that circulates within modern families can be understood as fundamentally disciplinary. Drawing primarily on Foucauldian theory, as well as Sharon Hays’ concept of ‘intensive mothering’, the paper argues that process time is central to the functioning of the family as a biopolitical institution, just as clock time is integral to the disciplinary mechanisms of the school, prison, barracks, etc. Specifically, it argues that the unique relations of power that circulate within the biopolitical family rely on a unique use of time: one that is intensive and oriented towards the rhythms of the physical body – that is, processual. Further, this disciplinary time is deeply and fundamentally feminine, as it operates (in its ideal form) primarily through the mother.
Interactions between nitrogen release from organic fertilisers and organic horticultural soils

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Mushroom compost has been one of the most commonly used fertilisers in organic greenhouse vegetable production in Iceland. However, mushroom compost contains conventional chicken manure. Therefore, the use of this fertiliser is prohibited in organic horticulture. In search of alternative nutrient resources, nine different substitutes for mushroom compost (plant compost, four composted animal manures, fishmeal, white clover residues, coarse meal of faba beans, ‘Pioner complete 6-1-3®’) were tested on two soils differing in organic matter in a pot experiment. Dry matter yield (DM) and the apparent N utilisation with the model plant perennial ryegrass was quantified in five cuts throughout 131 days. Both the DM yield and the apparent N utilisation was influenced by the fertiliser, the soil and their interaction. The N release of the tested alternative organic fertiliser resources was described by the N content and C:N ratio of the fertilisers, but was also affected by the soil. It was concluded that the composted animal manures provided an N release equal to mushroom compost and could therefore act as substitutes.
Law Enforcement Employees’ Perceptions of Performance Appraisals in a Medium-Size, Suburban Police Department

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

The purpose of this qualitative case study was to investigate how police officers in a medium-size, suburban police department perceived performance appraisals and the effects of performance appraisals on job satisfaction and job performance. This study also examined the impacts of job satisfaction and job performance on organizations. One-on-one participant interviews were conducted, and thematic coding was utilized to capture the dominant themes associated with the police officers’ perceptions of performance appraisals. Twelve police officers from a medium-size, suburban police department in New Jersey participated in the study, and their anonymity was maintained to elicit transparent responses. This dissertation was conducted within a department of mostly Caucasian male employees. Future research conducted on this subject could utilize a sample pool with greater race and gender diversity. Studies could investigate the ways appraisals affect the world of policing and further explore the relationship of gender- and race-linked factors to job satisfaction and performance. This study may provide further incentive for job candidates of various genders and races to pursue the policing profession.

Furthermore, OCB dimensions of helping behavior, conscientiousness, sportsmanship and courtesy were significantly and negatively associated with academic dishonesty.
The Thesis Submitted for the Degree of Master of Science Plant Breeding and Biotechnology

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Correction of drought-tolerant wheat varieties is one of the goals of corrective programs. Grain yield in drought stress conditions depends on many phonological, morphological and physiological characteristics. Induction of mutation is an effective way to increase the genetic diversity of plants, especially for traits with low genetic diversity. In this experiment, in order to study the effect of different dose of gamma rays (control, 150, 200 and 250 G) on morphological, physiological and NAC and MYB gene expression in four different cultivars of wheat, Sistan (Afshian wheat, Bolanian coffee E, white whites and camel teeth) under drought stress conditions, an experiment was conducted in a research greenhouse of the Faculty of Agriculture, University of Zabol. Firstly, irradiated
wheat seeds from a Sistan field research center were cultivated in a pot in a factorial arrangement in a completely randomized design with three replications.
After emergence of seedlings to the 4-5 stage, drought stress was applied at 5 levels (5, 10, 15, 20, 25 percent). After harvesting, the traits were morphological traits (stem length, root length, root number, leaf length, leaf width, leaf number, fresh weight of the shoot, aerobic weight of the shoot, root fresh weight, root dry
weight) Antioxidant enzymes (polyphenol oxidase, catalase, guaiacol peroxidase, ascorbate peroxidase), photosynthetic pigments (chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, carotenoid and total), as well as the pattern of expression of NAC and MYB genes were studied. And the results indicated that different gamma-ray dosages had a significant effect on the promotion of most traits related to drought tolerance in
wheat, so that by increasing the dose of gamma treatments and drought stress, the resistance levels of the samples Compared to control, the highest expression of the
studied genes was observed in 250g radionuclide treatment and drought stress of 5% crop capacity. Also, among the cultivars studied, the camel's genotype showed a better response to drought and irradiation treatments, which was introduced as a resistant cultivar in this experiment.
Impact of taboos on diet of children under-five

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Over the two past decades, several nutrition related interventions have been implemented by both Government and its developmental partners with the view of addressing childhood stunting in Ghana and the Northern Region in particular. Despite these interventions the phenomenon is still prevalentin especially in the Northern Region. The prevalence of stunting has often be attributed to several factors including the observance of sociocultural practices such as food taboos. The study set out to investigate the impact of taboos on the diet of children under five with a view of recommendingappropriate interventions needed to reduce stunting in the Bole District.
