Background: Solid pseudopapillary tumor of the pancreas (SPPT) or Frantz's tumor is a rare exocrine pancreatic tumor, it generally occurs among females within the second or third decade of life. The clinical symptomatology is non-specific, frequently presenting as a slowly growing abdominal mass without any biological abnormalities. The imaging usually shows a well-limited mass with little vascularity. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) with fine needle aspiration (FNA) helps the diagnosis. The treatment of these tumors is surgical, and the prognosis is excellent after complete resection. We report two new cases of Frantz tumor, detailing the clinicopathological features of this rare neoplasm. Case presentation: Case 1: A 19-year-old woman presented with middle upper abdominal pain. Computed tomography (CT) scan showed a solitary encapsulated mass in the pancreatic body. Endoscopic ultrasound showed a regular, well-defined, heterogenous lesion, measuring 50 × 46 cm, in the pancreatic body. endoscopic ultrasound fine-needle aspiration was then performed with cytopathological analysis compatible with SPPT. Body computed tomography confirmed the absence of metastases and she underwent a central pancreatectomy. 12 months after the diagnosis, she remains asymptomatic, continuing regular follow-up. Case 2: A 22-year-old woman presented with epigastric pain and weight loss. CT scan revealed a single 5 cm well defined mass in the pancreatic head. EUS showed a well-defined heterogenous hypoechoic encapsulated mass in the pancreatic head, measuring 64 × 44 mm; EUS-FNA was performed and cytopathological analysis was suggestive of SPPT. She underwent conventional cephalic duodenopancreatectomy. She presented septic postoperative complications, with a favorable outcome after medical and surgical therapy. she remains asymptomatic, after 6 months follow-up. Conclusion: Solid pseudo papillary pancreatic tumor is a rare exocrine low-grade neoplasm. EUS is a sensitive tool in the diagnosis of SPPT, identifying and characterizing the pathologic lesions, and allowing EUS-FNA with cytomorphological recognition, making it an invaluable tool for establishing diagnosis, helping clinical management and surgical planning.

Several studies has reported the use of neural networks in the dynamic modelling and simulation of heavy duty turbines. However; focus on exhaust gas temperature a key indicator of turbine thermal health is yet to be made. In this paper the modelling of exhaust gas temperature using the non-linear autoregressive network and subsequent multi step prediction with data collected from GT13E2 turbine was embarked upon. Features which were statistically significant for EGT prediction were selected through stepwise regression. One hidden layer was sufficient to approximate the function and The optimal architecture for training was achieved by training the network with a fixed hidden neuron and varying time delay at the inputs and output. It is observed that the optimal performance is realized when the prediction is regressed at tapped input delay of 1 in open loop. 7 hidden neuron and 1 tapped delay is selected for function approximation after series of neurons ranging from 4-15 was tested. The appropriate model was carefully selected by utilizing the method of holdout cross validation, corrected Akaike Informationon Criterion and Schwartz Bayesian information criterion. The final architecture was trained, and converted to close loop NARX network where 100 time steps ahead prediction of EGT was made. Although it was observed that accuracy diminishes as prediction horizon increases, the chosen optimised architecture successfully predicted EGT 100 steps ahead with MAE of 2.9665 and RMSE of 3.9675. Therefore; the dynamic NARX model can be utilized for multistep ahead prediction in incidence of sensor malfunction at the turbine outlet of heavy duty gas turbines.

This study purposed to determine the impact of the microenvironment on firm value with the macro environment as the moderator variable. This research population is the pharmaceutical sub-sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in terms 2015-2020. Samples that suit the criteria are eight companies. The data were analyzed using panel data regression with a multiplication interaction structure so that there were 48 observations. The results showed that the Fixed Effect is the best model. The study results simultaneously show that the microenvironment is measured using investment decision variables, market penetration, and inventory turnover. The macro-environment, as measured using the GDP variable, has a significant and positive effect on firm value. Partly, investment decisions and inventory turnover have a positive and significant effect on firm value, while market penetration has no impact on firm value. Meanwhile, GDP can only moderate investment decisions and inventory turnover and not moderate market penetration.

This study's purpose is to analyze the impact of world oil prices, world gold prices, inflation, and USD/IDR exchange rates on the Composite Stock Price Index (IHSG) on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX). Secondary data was obtained from the London Financial Market Association (LBMA), Bank Indonesia, and investing.com. The variables used in this study are world oil prices, world gold prices, USD/IDR exchange rates, and inflation as independent variables—also, the Composite Stock Price Index (CSPI) as the dependent variable. This study was conducted using secondary data per month in 2015-2019, non-participant observation with a saturated sampling method of 60 months. The analysis used in this research is Least Square and Autoregressive Moving Average (LS&ARMA) regression analysis. Simultaneous research results show that world oil prices, gold prices, USD/IDR exchange rates, and inflation significantly affect the Composite Stock Price Index (JCI). The study results partially show that world gold prices and inflation have an important adverse effect on the JCI, while world oil prices significantly positively impact the JCI. It is different from the USD/IDR exchange rate, which does not influence the JCI. The practical conclusion of this research is to afford information to investors that world gold prices, world oil prices, and inflation should be considered in making investment decisions in the capital market.

Thyroid malignant nodules (TMNs) are the most common endocrine cancer and the fifth most frequently occurring type of malignancies. The etiology and pathogenesis of TMNs must be considered as multifactorial. The present study was performed to clarify the role of some chemical elements (ChEs) in the etiology of these thyroid disorders. Thyroid tissue levels of nineteen ChEs were prospectively evaluated in malignant tumor and tissue adjacent to tumor of 41 patients with TMNs. Measurements were performed using a combination of non-destructive and destructive methods: instrumental neutron activation analysis with high resolution spectrometry of short-lived radionuclides and inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry. Results of the study were additionally compared with previously obtained data for the same ChEs in “normal” thyroid tissue. It was observed that in malignant tissue the mass fractions of Al, B, Ca, Cl, Cu, K, Mg, Mn, Na, P, S, and Si were 3.14, 4.64, 1.79, 2.26, 3.55, 1.57, 1.61, 1.57, 1.24, 2.45, 1.14, and 2.81 times, respectively, higher whereas mass fraction of I was 25.6 times lower than in the normal thyroid. In the “adjacent” group mean mass fractions of Cl and I were approximately 1.6 and 1.7 times, respectively, higher, while mean values of Ba, Ca and Sr content were 55%, 45%, and 70%, respectively, lower than in the “normal” group. In tumor Ca, Cl, Cu, K, and Sr contents were approximately 2.8, 1.4, 1.8, 1.7, and 5.4 times, respectively, higher, while I content was 43 times lower than in “adjacent” group of tissue samples. It was concluded that thyroid tissue adjacent to malignant nodules kept the main function of thyroid gland, while malignantly transformed thyroid cells lost its capacity to accumulate I. It was supposed that the excessive accumulation of Cl and I by thyroid tissue probably precede the TMNs origination and development. It was also supposed that elevated levels of Al, B, Ca, Cl, Cu, K, Mg, Mn, Na, P, S, and Si, as well as drastically reduced level of me in cancerous tissue could possibly be explored for differential diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules.
