The objective of our research is to analyze the causes and/or factors that influence the voting intentions of immigrants in the municipality of Santiago, Chile. To achieve this, we interviewed twenty immigrants who had the right to vote in two different periods. Before and after the October 2016 municipal elections. By doing this we were able to compare their answers having the elections as a pivotal point. We followed a content analysis of their answers to evaluate their discourses with regards to voting intentions. We conclude that the factors that influence immigrants’ voting decisions are multiple. We center our conclusions in the lack of information migrants have on their electoral rights, the lack of interest of candidates on migrants as a voting force, and the lack of recognition from the State of migrants as legal subjects. These reasons produce high political indifference on immigrants.

In order to analyze whether the entry of the right-wing populist party Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) into parliaments has changed parliamentary debate culture a content analysis of budget debates for the period 2012-2017 is conducted, where the frequency of interruptions and the use of uncivil utterances during the speaker’s interruption in seven German state parliaments are measured before and after the entry of the AfD . The measured changes to developments in the two German states where the AfD did not succeed in moving into the state parliament are compared . The frequency of interruptions - and thus the conflictual nature of parliamentary debates - has increased as a result of the presence of the AfD . However, there are no indications that the increase in incivility is related to the entry of the AfD into the state parliaments . The likelihood of the AfD’s confrontational appearance increases with its parliamentary significance (e .g ., the share of seats) . By contrast, it is irrelevant for the appearance of the AfD in parliamentary debates whether they are more movement-oriented or more parliament-oriented .

A notary is a public official who has the authority to make authentic deeds and other authorities regulated in-laws and regulations. Notaries are also private legal subjects (natuurlijk persons), which have free will to carry out legal actions. According to the Law on Notarial Positions, a Notary is dishonorably dismissed when (s)he is declared bankrupt. On the other hand, the UUK and PKPU recognize the rehabilitation of bankrupt debtors if they have fulfilled their obligations. This is where there is ambiguity or a fuzzy norm (vegen norm). Legal research aims to find out how bankruptcy is regulated in the notary position, and what are the legal consequences for the position of a notary both as a person and in relation to his/her position as a notary public? This legal research is normative juridical using a statutory approach and a conceptual approach. The legal materials obtained are analyzed using content analysis. The results of the discussion: 1). Notary bankruptcy has been regulated in UUK and PKPU as well as in the Law on Notary Position. 2). The legal consequences for a Notary who is declared bankrupt by the Commercial Court have an impact on the notary's personality, as well as on his position. According to the Law on the Position of Notary Public, if violating Article 84 which results in losses to the parties, the notary is obliged to pay compensation. According to the UUK and PKPU, this could result in the debtor losing the right to act freely on his assets, but not losing the right to perform his/her tasks and hold a position. As a recommendation, in the Law on the Position of Notary Public, it is necessary to clearly define the separation of Notary as a person from her/his position as his profession.

SummaryWe investigated the comparative antithrombotic properties of clopidogrel, an analogue of ticlopidine, and aspirin, using the Folts' model on femoral arteries in 22 pigs. On each animal, clopidogrel or aspirin were used to treat the thrombotic process on the left femoral artery and to prevent this process on the right femoral artery. Sequentially: an injury and stenosis were carried out on the left femoral artery; the thrombotic process was monitored with a Doppler during a 30-min observation period for cyclic flow reductions or permanent cessation of flow; after the first cyclic flow reduction occurred, clopidogrel (5 mg kg-1) or aspirin (2.5, 5, 100 mg kg-1) were injected intravenously; if cyclic flow reductions were abolished, epinephrine (0.4 µg kg-1 min-1) was injected to try to restore cyclic flow reductions and/or permanent cessation of flow; then injury and stenosis were applied on the right femoral artery. Before and after injection of clopidogrel or aspirin, ear immersion bleeding times and ex-vivo platelet aggregation were performed. Clopidogrel (n = 7) abolished cyclic flow reductions in all animals and epinephrine did not restore any cyclic flow reduction. On the right femoral artery, cyclic flow reductions were efficiently prevented, even for two injuries. Basal bleeding time (5 min 28) was lengthened (>15 min, 30 min after clopidogrel and remained prolonged even after 24 h). ADP-induced platelet aggregation was inhibited (more than 78%). Comparatively, aspirin had a moderate and no dose-dependent effect. Aspirin 2.5 mg kg-1 (n = 6) abolished cyclic flow reductions in 2 animals, CFR reoccurred spontaneously in one animal and epinephrine restored it in a second animal. Aspirin 5 mg kg-1 (n = 6) abolished cyclic flow reductions in only 3 animals and epinephrine always restored it. Aspirin 100 mg kg-1 (n = 3) was unable to abolish cyclic flow reductions. On the right femoral artery, aspirin did not significantly prevent cyclic flow reductions which occurred in all animals after one (n = 14) or two injuries (n = 1), except for one animal. Basal bleeding time was lengthened but it shortened rapidly, reaching its basal value after 24 h. ADP-induced aggregation was not significantly inhibited, whereas arachidonic acid induced aggregation was always inhibited. Clopidogrel appears as a more potent antithrombotic drug than aspirin in this model, in treating and preventing spontaneous or epinephrine-induced cyclic flow reductions and lengthening bleeding time.

Abstract Implementation of demonstration method in the teaching of chemistry is assigned as the right strategy to improve students’ achievement as it is proved that the method can bring an abstract concept to reality in the class. The study is conducted to vocational high school students in SMKN1 Pargetteng getteng Sengkut Pakfak Barat at accademic year 2013. The teaching has been carried out three cycles on the teaching of chemistry topic of colloid system. In the study, the class is divided into two class, experiment class and control class. The demontration method is used to teach students in experimental class while the teaching in control class is conducted with lecture method. Both are evaluated by using multiple choise tests before and after the teaching procedures, and the ability of students to answer the problems are assigned as students’ achievements. The results showed that demonstration method improved students’ achievement in chemistry. The students in experimental class who are taughed with demonstration method (M=19.08±0.74) have higher achievements compare with control class (M=12.91±2.52), and both are significantly different (tcalculation 22.85 > ttable 1.66). The effectivity of demostration method in experimental class (97%) is found higer compare to conventional method in control class (91%).

Background:Methotrexate is a gold standard for treatment of RA. In our context, RA patients prefer to be injected by paramedics rather than self-injecting. This can be explained by patients’ bad perceptions of self-injection or lack of information. Appropriate self-injection education can therefore be an important element in overcoming these obstacles and improving disease self-management.Objectives:Compare the RA patients’ perceptions on methotrexate self-injection before and after a patient education session.Methods:Prospective pilot study that included 27 consecutive patients (81.5% female, mean age 44.4 years, illiteracy rate 40.7%) with RA (median duration of progression of 4 years, mean delay in referral for specialist of 6 months, median duration of methotrexate use of 1 year). The patients benefited from an individual patient education session to learn how to self-inject with methotrexate subcutaneously. The patient education session was supervised by a nurse and a rheumatologist with a control a week later. Perceptions of the reluctance to self-inject and the difficulties encountered by patients were assessed before the patient education session, after the 1st and 2nd self-injection of methotrexate using a 10 mm visual analog scale. Patients also reported their level of satisfaction (10 mm VAS) after the 1st and 2nd self-injection.Results:The mean duration of patient education session is 13 min.Table I compares the evolution of the degrees of reluctance to self-injection, the difficulties encountered, and the satisfaction experienced by the patients.Table 1.Evolution of RA patients’ perceptions on the methotrexate self-injection.

Background: Excessive use of smartphones may be associated with behavioral and physical health changes and might cause musculoskeletal alterations in the head and neck region. Objective: To evaluate the prevalence of smartphone addiction in college students and its correlation with symptoms of head and neck pain and masticatory and trapezius muscle activity while resting, before and after smartphone use. Methods: Twenty university students participated in the study. They answered the Smartphone Addiction Scale and the Fonseca Anamnestic Index. Next, the participants were seated and prepared for electromyography through the placement of surface electrodes on the masseter, temporal, and trapezius muscles. Rest condition data were collected for 10 seconds before and after 30 minutes of smartphone use. Results: The results showed that 35% of the evaluated individuals were classified as smartphone addicted and 35% reported no head or neck pain in the previous 30 days. There was no association between smartphone use and head and neck pain. In the electromyography, there was an increase in RMS values after smartphone use in the right and left masseter muscles and the left trapezius. Conclusion: College students presented a high prevalence of smartphone addiction and head and neck pain, but these were not statistically associated. There was a change in muscle activity only in the right trapezius muscles before and after 30 minutes of smartphone use. These findings are contrary to the current belief that the use of smartphones correlates with pain in the neck region and changes in the electrical muscle activity, leading to fatigue in the cervical muscles.

Abstract Purpose There is no systematic description of primary anatomical landmarks that allow a surgeon to reliably and safely navigate the superior and posterior mediastinum’s fat tissue spaces near large vessels and nerves during video-assisted endothoracoscopic interventions in the prone position of a patient. Our aim was to develop an algorithm of sequential visual navigation during thoracoscopic extirpation of the esophagus and determine the most permanent topographic and anatomical landmarks allowing safe thoracoscopic dissection of the esophagus in the prone position. Methods The anatomical study of the mediastinal structural features was carried out on 30 human cadavers before and after opening the right pleural cavity. Results For thoracoscopic extirpation of the esophagus in the prone position, anatomical landmarks are defined, their variants are assessed, and an algorithm for their selection is developed, allowing their direct visualization before and after opening the mediastinal pleura. Conclusion The proposed algorithm for topographic and anatomical navigation based on the key anatomical landmarks in the posterior mediastinum provides safe performance of the video-assisted thoracoscopic extirpation of the esophagus in the prone position.

Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Introduction Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) leads to a progressive increase in pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) and pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) with the development of severe dysfunction of the right heart and heart failure. Mortality for three years with an average pressure in the pulmonary artery (PA) of more than 50 mmHg is more than 90%. Balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) has a significant advantage over other methods of surgical treatment, but it requires the determination of additional non-invasive markers of effectiveness. Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) remains the main method for assessing the morphology and function of the heart. Purpose Compare different indicators reflecting the severity of CTEPH with TTE indicators before and after BPA. To evaluate the effectiveness of using BPA for the treatment of patients with CTEPH using routine TTE and speckle tracking mode. Materials and methods For 18 months 30 patients without concomitant cardiovascular pathology were subjected to several BPA sessions. Before treatment, 50% of patients belonged to the 3 CTEPH functional class (FC), 40% to 2 FC, 10% to 1 FC. The average number of sessions was 4.7 ± 1.3. Before the first BPA and after the last, all the patients were performed: six-minute walk test (6MWT, metres), Borg scale (in points), test for NT-proBNP (pg/ml); TTE with assessment of the right ventricle (RV) and left ventricle (LV) including areas of the right atrium (aRA, cm2), mean pulmonary artery pressure (PUPM,mmHg),RV free wall strain (GLSFW, %), RV free wall strain rate (GLSRFW, sm/sec), RV free wall postsystolic shortening (PSSFW, %), tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE, sm), tricuspid annulus systolic velocity (TASV, sm/sec). Results. Before the first BPA session, the 6MWT in the patient group averaged 315.9 ± 9.08 metres, after - 439.5 ± 11.45 m; the Borg from 5.4 ± 0.94 points decreased to 4 ± 1.01 points; NT-proBNP before the treatment was 1513 ± 13.01 pg/ml, after - 171 ± 6.09; according to TTE the ratio of RV/ LV before and after treatment was 1.31 ± 0.02 and 0.97 ± 0.04; aRA was 29.3 ± 4.87 and 22.3 ± 3.53 cm2; basal RV - 52 ± 5.11 and 44 ± 7.26 mm; PUPM decreased from 76.6 ± 7.65 to 31.3 ± 3.78 mmHg; GLSFW from -14.69 ± 2.33 came to 17.5 ± 3.45 %; GLSRFW with -0.9 ± 0.09 to -1.7 ± 0.11 cm/sec; TAPSE from 16.7 ± 1.87 to 18.2 ± 2.34 cm; TASV from 10.11 ± 1.45 to 12.25 ± 1.98 cm/s, PSSFW before treatment was -18.4 ± 1.2%, after treatment in 66% of patients disappeared, in 34% became an average of 17.4 ± 0.9% The distribution of STEPH FC has also changed. Conclusion. BPA leads to an improvement in the tolerance of physical activity, clinical indicators, and parameters of central hemodynamics in the pulmonary circulation, evaluated according to direct manometry, and leads to reverse remodeling of the RV in the long term. Performing a staged BPA leads to an improvement in the functional parameters of contractility of the RV.

AbstractRespiratory failure may cause hemodynamic instability with strain on the right ventricle. The capnodynamic method continuously calculates cardiac output (CO) based on effective pulmonary blood flow (COEPBF) and could provide CO monitoring complementary to mechanical ventilation during surgery and intensive care. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the ability of a revised capnodynamic method, based on short expiratory holds (COEPBFexp), to estimate CO during acute respiratory failure (LI) with high shunt fractions before and after compliance-based lung recruitment. Ten pigs were submitted to lung lavage and subsequent ventilator-induced lung injury. COEPBFexp, without any shunt correction, was compared to a reference method for CO, an ultrasonic flow probe placed around the pulmonary artery trunk (COTS) at (1) baseline in healthy lungs with PEEP 5 cmH2O (HLP5), (2) LI with PEEP 5 cmH2O (LIP5) and (3) LI after lung recruitment and PEEP adjustment (LIPadj). CO changes were enforced during LIP5 and LIPadj to estimate trending. LI resulted in changes in shunt fraction from 0.1 (0.03) to 0.36 (0.1) and restored to 0.09 (0.04) after recruitment manoeuvre. Bias (levels of agreement) and percentage error between COEPBFexp and COTS changed from 0.5 (− 0.5 to 1.5) L/min and 30% at HLP5 to − 0.6 (− 2.3 to 1.1) L/min and 39% during LIP5 and finally 1.1 (− 0.3 to 2.5) L/min and 38% at LIPadj. Concordance during CO changes improved from 87 to 100% after lung recruitment and PEEP adjustment. COEPBFexp could possibly be used for continuous CO monitoring and trending in hemodynamically unstable patients with increased shunt and after recruitment manoeuvre.
