Objective: The aim of this study is to determine the outcome of traumatic extradural hematoma and to compare the outcome of small and large size extradural hematoma. Study Design: Descriptive case study Place and Duration: Study was conducted at the department of Neurosurgery, Saidu Teaching Hospital, Saidu Sharif, Swat for duration of two years from January 2016 to December 2017. Methods: Total one hundred and forty patients of both genders with ages 2-70 years were presented. Patients had traumatic extradural hematoma within duration first 24 hours were included and admitted through the emergency department. Detailed demographics of enrolled cases age, sex, GCS on arrival and cause of injury were recorded after taking informed written consent. CT scan of all the patients was done for diagnosis. Glasgow Outcome Score (GOS) was used for determination of outcomes. SPSS 23.0 version was used to analyze the data. Results: There were 110 (78.6%) male patients and 30 (21.4%) patients were females. Mean age of the patients was 32.78±10.43 years. RTA was the most common cause found in 84 (60%) followed by falling 29 (20.7%) and assault in 27 (19.3%). Small size hematoma volume among 100 (71.4%) cases and large size was in 40 (28.6%) patients. According to Glasgow outcome score, 24 (17.1%) cases had 1-3 score and 116 (82.9%) cases had 4-5 score. Mean GOS was 4.01±1.12. We found successful outcomes among 116 (82.9%) cases in which majority of the patients were from small size extradural hematoma. Conclusion: We concluded in this study that a significant relationship exists between the volume of extradural hematoma and both the clinical and functional outcome. Prognosis becomes increasingly worse with rising extradural hematoma size. Keywords: Traumatic Brain Injury, Extradural Hematoma, Glasgow Outcome Score

Sharia Board is an commite in sharia financial institution and assigned overseeing the implementation of the decisions of the National Sharia Board (DSN) in Islamic financial institutions. Sharia Board functions to supervise sharia compliance in sharia financial institutions including the Baitul Maal Waat Tamwil (BMT). BMT is a sharia micro finance institution that combines the concept of maal and tamwil . This study aims to determine the problems faced by the Sharia Board in conducting supervision in BMT. The point that is necessary reviewed in this supervisory practice are based on Decree MUI DSN No. 3 of 2000 concerning instructions for implementing the determination of members of the sharia board in sharia financial institutions. This study use qualitative methods with descriptive case study strategy. From the results of the research occur several problems were encountered by the Sharia Board including: lack of the professionalism of Sharia Board, lack of commitment, lack of independence, and challange to mobilize all elemnts os sharia financial institution to comply with sharia law.The sloution of the problematic is by upgrade an increase faith and taqwa ang commitment to enforce sharia especially as the Sharia Board. always implementing the principles of Good Corporate Governance, and the governmemt making strong and clear rules of sharia supervisions.Keywords: Problematic , Sharia Board , Baitul Maal Wat Tamwil

SummaryThrombotic disorders are the most common cause of death in the United States. About two million individuals die each year from an arterial or venous thrombosis or related disorders. About 80% to 90% of all cases of thrombosis can now be defined with respect to cause. Of these, over 50% occur in patients who harbor a congenital or acquired blood coagulation protein or platelet defect which caused the thrombotic event. It is obviously of major importance to define those individuals harboring such a defect as this allows: 1) appropriate antithrombotic therapy to decrease risks of recurrence; 2) determination of the length of time the patient must remain on therapy for secondary prevention; and 3) allow for testing of family members of those harboring a blood coagulation protein or platelet defect which is hereditary (about 50% of all coagulation and platelet defects mentioned above). Aside from mortality, significant additional morbidity occurs from both arterial or venous thrombotic events, including, but not limited to paralysis (non-fatal thrombotic stroke), cardiac disability (repeated coronary events), loss of vision (retinal vascular thrombosis), fetal waste syndrome (placental vascular thrombosis), stasis ulcers and other manifestations of post-phlebitic syndrome, etc.

Total Fraction

A novel method was developed for the determination of linting propensity of paper based on printing with an IGT printability tester and image analysis of the printed strips. On average, the total fraction of the surface removed as lint during printing is 0.01%-0.1%. This value is lower than those reported in most laboratory printing tests, and more representative of commercial offset printing applications. Newsprint paper produced on a roll/blade former machine was evaluated for linting propensity using the novel method and also printed on a commercial coldset offset press. Laboratory and commercial printing results matched well, showing that linting was higher for the bottom side of paper than for the top side, and that linting could be reduced on both sides by application of a dry-strength additive. In a second case study, varying wet-end conditions were used on a hybrid former machine to produce four paper reels, with the goal of matching the low linting propensity of the paper produced on a machine with gap former configuration. We found that the retention program, by improving fiber fines retention, substantially reduced the linting propensity of the paper produced on the hybrid former machine. The papers were also printed on a commercial coldset offset press. An excellent correlation was found between the total lint area removed from the bottom side of the paper samples during laboratory printing and lint collected on halftone areas of the first upper printing unit after 45000 copies. Finally, the method was applied to determine the linting propensity of highly filled supercalendered paper produced on a hybrid former machine. In this case, the linting propensity of the bottom side of paper correlated with its ash content.

The paper deals with the issues related to the pollution of aquatic ecosystems. The influence of turbulence on the transport and dispersion of pollutants in the mentioned systems, as well as the calculation of the turbulent diffusion coefficients are studied. A case study on the determination of turbulent diffusion coefficients for some sectors of the Prut River is presented. A new method is proposed for the determination of the turbulent diffusion coefficients in the pollutant transport equation for specific sectors of a river, according to the associated number of P�clet, calculated for each specific area: the left bank, the right bank and the middle of the river.

This study explored understandings shared by fifth-grade gifted students as they read the book Restart, which explores bullying. Students read, created representations, and discussed the text. Grounded by Langer’s stances of envisionment, this descriptive case study analyzed student representations and conversations. Each of the stances was represented with most responses being represented in Stances 1 (getting a sense of the text), 2 (interpreting text), and 4 (analyzing the text). In addition, most students viewed bullies and their behavior as being in a fixed state, which was tied to the perceived power a bully held. The results from this study have implications for teachers who work with gifted and talented students, counselors who work with students in mental health and resilience programs, and the collaboration of these school personnel.
