Estimation of Purkinje cell quantification and volumetry in the cerebellum using a stereological technique
Systematic sampling using the Cavalier’s principle provides accurate, efficient,
cheap, and simple quantitative estimates of objects within neuroanatomical
structures like the cerebellum. We identified and isolated the Purkinje
cell layer and used this information to extrapolate the stereological technique
to estimate the total number of Purkinje cells and volume on light
microscope in rabbits’ cerebella. Volumes of the cell populations in the cerebellum
have not been estimated previously. Using this method, we counted
the Purkinje cells in the two right and three left hemicerebella of five
male healthy rabbits and found the total number of Purkinje cells to have
a mean of 671,597. The mean volume of the Purkinje cell was estimated at
2207 μm3 for the entire cerebella. The contribution of the stereological
method to cell quantification and volumetry was emphasised by the neuroanatomical
experimental animal study. The method proved to be an excellent
tool for evaluating the Purkinje cell numbers and volumes in the
rabbits. The data may also support the significance of considering anatomical
data when evaluating pathological changes in cerebella. (Folia Morphol

IMPLEMENTASI THORIQOH MUBASYAROH DALAM MENINGKATKAN KEMAMPUAN MEMBACA BAHASA ARAB
Permasalahan membaca tulisan Bahasa Arab Pada Siswa merupakan permasalahan yang belum terpecahkan hal ini terjadi dikarenakan belum optimalnya pemberdayaan raw input siswa, pemberdayaan instrumental input meliputi kurikulum, pendidik dan tenaga kependidikan. Tujuan penelitian ini Untuk memperoleh gambaran tentang Metode thoriqoh mubasyaroh Terhadap Kemampuan Membaca Siswa pada Mata Pelajaran Bahasa Arab. Dalam penelitian ini menggunakan penelitian kualitatif, Hasil penelitian ini menunjukan bahwa Penerapan, Pengorganisasian, Pelaksanaan, Penilaian. Dan evaluasi Metode Thoriqoh Mubasyaroh untuk Meningkatkan Kemampuan Membaca Siswa Pada Mata Pelajaran Bahasa Arab Di MIS Muslimin Cimalik Cililin sangat memberi pengaruh yang positif bagi peserta didik yaitu mereka semakin bersemangat untuk belajar, aktif beraktivitas di dalam kelas sehingga nilai belajar mereka pun pada mata pelajaran Bahasa arab meningkat. Faktor pendukung dalam metode Thoriqoh Mubasyaroh adalah adanya guru yang kreatif dan sigap dalam mempersiapkan pelaksanaan Thoriqoh Mubasyaroh dan faktor penghambatnya yaitu keterbatasan sumber dan media belajar yang ada di sekolah. Bagi lembaga pendidikan hendaknya selalu memberikan kebebasan kepada guru-gurunya untuk dapat mengembangkan proses pembelajaran dengan menyediakan berbagai sarana dan prasarana yang dibutuhkan oleh guru
The Predictors of Habitual Behavior in Using Mobile Phone among University Students
The use of technology in academic activities, particularly in higher education institutions is one thing in common and undeniable. Entering the era of information technology without borders, the use of technology such as computers, laptops, tablets, mobile phones and so on are seen as essential roles to assist educational activities. Therefore, the utilization has become the norm among instructors and students in higher education institutions. Through previous studies, the terms of norms often referred to habitual behavior or automatically behavior. This study focused on three of independent variables from UTAUTrsquos model (performance expectancy, effort expectancy and social influences) to predict studentsrsquo habitual behavior in higher education in the use of mobile phone. This study involved 393 of undergraduatesrsquo student and was conducted entirely in Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM), Serdang.nbsp The results of data analysis revealed all the independent variables have significant effect on habitual behavior.nbs
An unusual course of the radial artery
Radial artery variations are of importance for clinicians, whether in angiographic
examinations or surgical approaches. The high origin radial artery is the most
frequent arterial variation observed in the upper limb, showing an incidence of
14.27% in dissection material and 9.75% in angiographic examination. In the
present study an unusual course of the radial artery and its relation with the
median nerve has been evaluated. During embryological development the radial
artery sprouts from two arterial buds arising from the lateral side of the brachial
artery and coalescing with each other. The artery lies in the forearm and is overlapped
by the brachioradial muscle. In this particular case the radial artery originated
from the medial side of the brachial artery and crossed the median nerve
twice in an unusual manner 8 cm below the point at which the deep brachial
artery arose and 12 cm above the intercondylar line. These results will enhance
anatomical knowledge of the region and reduce complication in surgical approaches
Intellectual capital and performance in temporary teams
Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to deepen resource-based view theory by analyzing how intellectual capital (IC) affects performance in temporary teams and by showing the moderating role of integrative mechanisms.
Design/methodology/approach: The research context focuses on 153 national teams of football (NTF), also referred to as national soccer teams, as an example of temporary groups. A partial least squares (PLS) methodology was utilized on a data set built from transfermarkt.com and FIFA world rankings. Three main hypotheses were developed and tested using first a PLS and then an OLS approach.
Findings: The results show how IC contributes to performance, extending the findings of previous studies to the context of temporary teams. Additionally, the results show how some integrative mechanisms such as assembly decisions and team leader experience influence temporary team performance by creating an interaction effect with existing IC.
Originality/value: This study contributes to IC theories for three reasons. First, it applies IC research to a specific research context: temporary teams, where specific organizational capabilities are required to coordinate resources. Second, the study analyzes the role of integrative mechanisms as moderators of the relationship between IC and performance in temporary teams. Third, the study focuses on NTF as an example of temporary teams
A note on conductivity and charge diffusion in holographic flavour systems
We analyze the charge diffusion and conductivity in a Dp/Dq holographic setup
that is dual to a supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in p+1 dimensions with N_f<<
N_c flavour degrees of freedom at finite temperature and nonvanishing U(1)
baryon number chemical potential. We provide a new derivation of the results
that generalize the membrane paradigm to the present context. We perform a
numerical analysis in the particular case of the D3/D7 flavor system. The
results obtained support the validity of the Einstein relation at finite
chemical potential.Comment: 15 pages, 3 figures, v2 with minor correction
Vascular anatomical features of the medial thigh flap in human cadavers of Caucasian origin
Background: Medial fasciocutaneous flaps, which are based on the femoral artery from the thigh region, are used for wide inguinal, scrotal, vaginal, perineal, leg, head and neck defect reconstructions in injured human patients. Within this regard, anatomical knowledge about perforating and cutaneous branches of the femoral artery is important for the surgeons.
Materials and methods: In the present study, vascular pedicles of the medial thigh perforator flap based on the femoral artery were investigated according to anatomical and surgical landmarks. Human Caucasian preserved cadavers of 15 adults (13 males, 2 females; age range 55–82 years: 30 sides, bilaterally) that were previously formalin fixed were subjected to our analytical examinations. Micro dissections were performed under 4× loop magnification while representing the perforating branches of the femoral artery after filling by coloured latex injection via the external iliac artery.
Results: The size and length parameters of these branches which appeared around the apex of the femoral triangle were evaluated. The mean size of the perforating branch at the point of origin was 0.14 cm and the mean size of the cutaneous branch at the point of origin was 0.09 cm, the mean length of the pedicle was 4.74 cm and the mean length of the cutaneous branch was 3.30 cm, respectively. Location of the perforating and the cutaneous branches were also determined according to the surgical landmarks such as the anterior superior iliac spine, inguinal ligament, pubic tubercle and interepicondylar line.
Conclusions: The pedicle of the medial flap should locate up to 25 cm from the anterior superior iliac spine so as to preserve the vascular structures. Exact location of this artery helps the surgeons to perform anastomosis in an easier and safer manner during surgical operations.
