Dissemination of research results between scientists usually happens via publications of original papers & review articles published in strictly controlled, peer-reviewed scientific journals. This is certainly a beneficial and useful way of communication, but it does not cover all the needs in scientific interactions. This manuscript aims to highlight the unmet need for effective creative communication among scientists during international conferences and congresses. A brief history of the 35-years symposia series “International Symposia on Cell/Tissue Injury & Cytoprotection/Organoprotection” (ISCTICO) are presented

The development of information technology has spawned the innovation of learning technology, one of which is the application of E-learning that develops along the paradigm of learning changes. Implementation of E-learning in addition to providing benefits are also still faced with various problems that become challenges in the application of E-learning resulting in a variety of perceptions that develop in society. This article aims to describe the opportunities, challenges, and implementation of E-learning in Indonesia. This paper is a literature review by using relevant sources related to theoretical and empirical reviews of E-learning challenges, opportunities, and implementation. Sources of theoretical reviews use books, other documents on E-learning, while for empirical reviews using research results published in scientific journals.

Purpose In the United States, 3.8 million women have a history of breast (BC) or ovarian cancer (OC). Up to 15% of cases are attributable to heritable mutations, which, if identified, provide critical knowledge for treatment and preventive care. It is unknown how many patients who are at high risk for these mutations have not been tested and how rates vary by risk criteria. Methods We used pooled cross-sectional data from three Cancer Control Modules (2005, 2010, 2015) of the National Health Interview Survey, a national in-person household interview survey. Eligible patients were adult females with a history of BC and/or OC meeting select 2017 National Comprehensive Cancer Network eligibility criteria on the basis of age of diagnosis and family history. Outcomes included the proportion of individuals reporting a history of discussing genetic testing with a health professional, being advised to undergo genetic testing, or undergoing genetic testing for BC or OC. Results Of 47,218 women, 2.7% had a BC history and 0.4% had an OC history. For BC, 35.6% met one or more select eligibility criteria; of those, 29.0% discussed, 20.2% were advised to undergo, and 15.3% underwent genetic testing. Testing rates for individual eligibility criteria ranged from 6.2% (relative with OC) to 18.2% (diagnosis ≤ 45 years of age). For OC, 15.1% discussed, 13.1% were advised to undergo, and 10.5% underwent testing. Using only four BC eligibility criteria and all patients with OC, an estimated 1.2 to 1.3 million individuals failed to receive testing. Conclusion Fewer than one in five individuals with a history of BC or OC meeting select National Cancer Comprehensive Network criteria have undergone genetic testing. Most have never discussed testing with a health care provider. Large national efforts are warranted to address this unmet need.

Esse artigo busca apresentar os resultados de uma pesquisa sobre a escolha do magistério como forma de inserção profissional de normalistas que frequentaram a Escola Normal Nossa Senhora de Oliveira, na cidade Oliveira, no  Centro-Oeste de Minas Gerais, entre os anos 1971 e 1974. Nesse sentido, as ideias que permeiam esse esboço vão ao encontro das concepções e conceitos sobre a mulher-professora, a formação de professores, em especial para o antigo ensino primário, e a história da educação em Minas Gerais. A metodologia utilizada é concernente à pesquisa narrativa e os dados terão como fonte principal narrativas orais de formandas da referida escola normal no período assinalado.The young normalist I was, the teacher I was: female professional insertion through normalist memories. This article aims to present research results on the choice of teaching as a form of professional insertion for normalistas who attended the Normal School of Our Lady of Oliveira, Oliveira city, Midwest of Minas Gerais, between 1971 and 1974. In this sense, the ideas that pervade this outline will meet the ideas and concepts of the woman - teacher, teacher training, especially for the old primary school, and the history of education in Minas Gerais. The methodology used is concerning the narrative research and data will have as the main source of oral narratives trainees said normal school in the indicated period. Keywords: Normalists; Feminization; Teacher school; Narrative research.

Proper wound diagnosis and management is an increasingly important clinical challenge and is a large and growing unmet need. Pressure ulcers, hard-to-heal wounds, and problematic surgical incisions are emerging at increasing frequencies. At present, the wound-healing industry is experiencing a paradigm shift towards innovative treatments that exploit nanotechnology, biomaterials, and biologics. Our study utilized an alginate hydrogel patch to deliver stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1), a naturally occurring chemokine that is rapidly overexpressed in response to tissue injury, to assess the potential effects SDF-1 therapy on wound closure rates and scar formation. Alginate patches were loaded with either purified recombinant human SDF-1 protein or plasmid expressing SDF-1 and the kinetics of SDF-1 release were measured both in vitro and in vivo in mice. Our studies demonstrate that although SDF-1 plasmid- and protein-loaded patches were able to release therapeutic product over hours to days, SDF-1 protein was released faster (in vivo Kd 0.55 days) than SDF-1 plasmid (in vivo Kd 3.67 days). We hypothesized that chronic SDF-1 delivery would be more effective in accelerating the rate of dermal wound closure in Yorkshire pigs with acute surgical wounds, a model that closely mimics human wound healing. Wounds treated with SDF-1 protein ( n = 10) and plasmid ( n = 6) loaded patches healed faster than sham ( n = 4) or control ( n = 4). At day 9, SDF-1-treated wounds significantly accelerated wound closure (55.0 ± 14.3% healed) compared to nontreated controls (8.2 ± 6.0%, p < 0.05). Furthermore, 38% of SDF-1-treated wounds were fully healed at day 9 (vs. none in controls) with very little evidence of scarring. These data suggest that patch-mediated SDF-1 delivery may ultimately provide a novel therapy for accelerating healing and reducing scarring in clinical wounds.

The Center for Home Industry chips on Bandar Lampung. The problem of this is the waste that has not been managed properly, the chip waste IRT waste in the form of fruit peels, leaves, fruit stalks, humps has the potential to be made of high-selling value products, diversification can be in the form of hand sanitizer products. The purpose of this activity is to solve the Partner's problem by disseminating research results in the form of transfer of waste treatment technology into a hand sanitizer. The method used is lectures and discussions on the dissemination of research results, assistance in processing wastewater into hand sanitizer products. The need for partners to process waste products into products that have value in the form of making herbal solid soap, followed by liquid soap, hand sanitizer, natural anti-microbial, feed making, composting and liquid fertilizer. The percentage increase in knowledge and understanding of the material after the service activities is the utilization of waste (40%), making feed (50%), making hand sanitizer (70%).

Mathematics is a symbol of rationality and the highest intellectual achievements of human civilization. Mathematics has always been seen as abstract and formal knowledge. However, in the last few decades, the idea has emerged that mathematics is a knowledge that develops in human cultural activities. The concept of mathematics in culture is widely known as ethnomathematics. This paper aims to briefly describe the history, criticism, and challenges of ethnomathematics, the thoughts of ethnomathematics experts, and their influence in learning mathematics today. The development of ethnomathematics gave rise to a field of study covering aspects of anthropology and the history of mathematics, non-formal mathematics practice, traditional mathematics, and multicultural learning. Various research results indicate that ethnomathematics contributes to improving school mathematics. Although culture has an important role in learning mathematics, to integrate it requires comprehensive efforts to overcome various obstacles. Teachers need to improve competencies related to understanding local culture to maximize the transformation of ethnomathematics learning in the classroom.
